Certain of the statements made in this news release may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the 
United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable Canadian 
securities law. Forward-looking statements and forward-looking information include, but are not limited to statements or 
information with respect to the resolution of Nautilus' dispute with the State, the completion of the agreement and the 
payment to Nautilus of the amounts provided for thereunder. We have made numerous assumptions about the material forward- 
looking statements and information contained herein including good faith negotiation by the State, a shared 
determination to resolve the dispute and the State's ability to pay the amounts due to Nautilus under the agreement with 
respect to Solwara 1. Even though our management believes the assumptions made and the expectations represented by such 
statements or information are reasonable, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statement or information 
will prove to be accurate. Forward-looking statements and information by their nature involve known and unknown risks, 
uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results to be materially different from any future results 
expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements or information. Such risks, uncertainties and other factors 
include, among others, the risk that negotiations with Petromin are not produtive. Should one or more of these risks, 
uncertainties or other factors materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary 
materially from those described in forward-looking statements and information. Although we have attempted to identify 
factors that would cause actual results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements and 
information, there may be other factors that cause actual results, performances, achievements or events not to be as 
anticipated, estimated or intended. Also, many of the factors are beyond our control. There can be no assurance that 
forward-looking statements or information will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ 
materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly you should not place undue reliance on forward-looking 
statements or information. Except as required by law, we do not expect to update forward-looking statements and
