ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING CONTINGENT VALUE RIGHT

Below is a chart illustrating amounts that might be payable with respect to the CVR to the Holders of the 1.3% of outstanding Notes, assuming the maximum 0.07% possible payout percentage if all Other Holders elect to participate and their Notes are accepted by the Company. There can be no assurances that the Company will receive any money or other consideration with respect to its arbitration proceeding or any sale of the Company’s mining data, equipment and related assets. Accordingly, there can be no assurances that the CVR will have any value in the future.

The CVR payout calculations per thousand in the chart are based on hypothetical amounts that might be received by the Company with respect to an arbitration award, arbitration settlement, mining data sale or a related transaction. Management’s presentation of these hypothetical amounts are not an indication of management’s expectations with respect to future outcomes.  The calculations are provided for illustrative purposes.

The minimum value presented represents the management’s estimate of the costs to independently duplicate the mining data, equipment and related assets and a sales price that management would consider if the Company were to receive an offer for such assets. The maximum value represents the current amount requested by the Company to be awarded by the arbitration tribunal. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining any award or other compensation through a settlement or asset sale or that the Company will be successful in collecting any portion of such amounts.
