Forward-Looking Statements
All statements of Northern Dynasty on this website, other than statements of historical facts that address the permitting, development and production for the Pebble Project are forward-looking statements. These statements include statements regarding (1) the mine plan for the Pebble Project, (ii) the social integration of the Pebble Project into the Bristol Bay region and benefits for Alaska, (iii) the political and public support for the permitting process, (iv) the timetable for completion of the Environmental Impact Statement permitting procss by the US Army Corps of Engineers, (v) the de-risking of the Pebble Project, (vi) the design and operating parameters for the Pebble Project mine plan, (iv) exploration potenital of the Pebble Project, (viii) future demand for copper and gold, and (ix) the ability of NDM to develop the Pebble Project and become a leading copper, gold, molybdenum and silver producer.
Although Northern Dynasty believes the expectations expressed in its forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, such statements should not be in any way construed as guarantees that the Pebble Project will secure all required government permits, establish the commercial feasibility of the Pebble Project or develop the Pebble Project. Assumptions used by the Northern Dynasty to develop forward-looking statements include the following: (i) the Pebble Project will obtain all required environmental and other permits and all land use and other licenses without undue delay, (ii) studies for the development of the Pebble Project will be positive, (iii) NDM's estimates of mineral resources will not change, (iv) NDM will be able to establish the commercial feasibility of the Pebble Project, and (v) NDM will be able to secure the financing required to develop the Pebble Project. The likelihood of future mining at the Pebble Project is subject to a large number of risks and will require achievement of a number of technical, economic and legal objectives, including (i) obtaining necessary mining and construction permits, licenses and approval without undue delay, including without delay due to third party opposition or changes in government policies, (ii) finalization of the mine plan for the Pebble Project, (iii) completion of feasibility studies demonstrating that any of the Pebble Project mineral resources can be economically mined, (iv) completion of all necessary engineering for mining and processing facilities, and (v) receipt by NDM of significant additional financing to fund these objectives as well as funding mine construction, which financing may not be available to the NDM on acceptable terms or on any terms at all. NDM is also subject to the specific risks inherent in the mining business as well as general economic and business conditions, as well as risk relating the uncertainties with respect to the effects of COVID-19.

Scientific and Technical Information
All scientific and technical information contained on this website has been reviewed and approved by a "qualified person" within the meaning of National Instrument 43-101 of the Canadian Securities Administrators.

Cautionary Note To Investors
This website may use the terms "measured resources," "indicated resources" and "inferred resources", which are recognized and required by Canadian regulations (under National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("43-101")). The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") has adopted amendments to its disclosure rules to modernize the mineral property disclosure requirements for issuers whose securities are registered with the SEC under the U.S. Exchange Act, effective February 25, 2019 ("the SEC Modernization Rules"). The SEC Modernization Rules adopt definitions of the terms and the categories of resources which are "substantially similar" to the corresponding terms under Canadian regulations in 43-101. Northern Dynasty cautions investors not to assume that all or any part of the mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into reserves. In addition, "inferred resources" have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and economic and legal feasibility. Under Canadian rules, estimates of inferred resources may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies, or economic studies except for a Preliminary Economic Assessment as defined under 43-101.
