Cautionary Note Regarding Feasibility Study
The Company uses the term feasibility study to refer to the technical and economic study it is preparing for the Back Forty Project. In order to qualify as a feasibility study as defined under Subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K 1300 (S-K 1300), the study must meet certain requirements, including, for example, that operating and capital cost estimates in the study must, at a minimum, have an accuracy level of approximately ±25% and a contingency range not exceeding 15%. Because the Company has not yet completed its analysis for the proposed study, there is no assurance that the study, when completed, will meet the definition of a feasibility study as defined under S-K 1300.
