Remarks: (1) On October 20, 2006, the board of directors of the Issuer awarded a restricted stock grant in the amount of 191,715 to Mr. Tajibayev. This award vests over three years and is contingent on his performance as a Vice President of the Issuer. The first quarter of the award (47,929 shares) vested on October 20, 2007. An additional 47,929 shares will vest on October 20, 2008 provided the Issuer has commenced construction of a nickel and cobalt ore processing by that date. The final 95,857 shares will vest on October 20, 2009 provided the Issuer has commenced commercial operations by that date. Mr. Tajibayev has the right to vote, receive dividends and enjoys all other rights of ownership over the entire 191,715 shares included in the restricted stock grant. He does not, however, have the right to dispose of, encumber or otherwise directly or indirectly profit or share in any profit derived from a transaction in the 143,786 shares that have not yet vested, nor will he have the right to do so until he has satisfied the applicable vesting requirements associated with those shares. The balance of the restricted stock award will only vest to Mr. Tajibayev if he is employed with the Issuer on the applicable vesting date. Any unvested shares at the time his employment with the Issuer ceases, for any reason, shall be forfeited back to the Issuer. |
