Non-IFRS Measures We have included, in this document, certain performance measures, including: (i) Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted Net Loss Per Share, basic and diluted; (ii) GEOs; (iii) Total Revenue, Land Agreement Proceeds and Interest; and (iv) Adjusted EBITDA which are each non-IFRS measures. The presentation of such non-IFRS measures is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. These non-IFRS measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and other companies may calculate these measures differently. Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted Net Loss Per Share, basic and diluted Adjusted Net Loss is calculated by adding land agreement proceeds credited against other mineral interests, interests earned on gold-linked loan, accretion of convertible debentures, transaction related and non-recurring general and administrative expenses(1) and share of loss in associate and deducting the following from net loss: dilution gain in associate, changes in fair value of embedded derivative, short-term investments and gold-linked loan, gain on loan modification, foreign exchange gain and other income. Adjusted Net Loss Per Share, basic and diluted, have been determined by dividing the Adjusted Net Loss by the weighted average number of common shares for the applicable period. Management believes that they are useful measures of performance as they adjust for items which are not always reflective of the underlying operating performance of our business and/or are not necessarily indicative of future operating results.

Non-IFRS Measures We have included, in this document, certain performance measures, including: (i) Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted Net Loss Per Share, basic and diluted; (ii) GEOs; (iii) Total Revenue, Land Agreement Proceeds and Interest; and (iv) Adjusted EBITDA which are each non-IFRS measures. The presentation of such non-IFRS measures is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. These non-IFRS measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and other companies may calculate these measures differently. Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted Net Loss Per Share, basic and diluted Adjusted Net Loss is calculated by adding land agreement proceeds credited against other mineral interests, interests earned on gold-linked loan, accretion of convertible debentures, transaction related and non-recurring general and administrative expenses (1) and share of loss in associate and deducting the following from net loss: dilution gain in associate, changes in fair value of embedded derivative, short-term investments and gold-linked loan, gain on loan modification, foreign exchange gain and other income.
