This offer is made to you outside of the United States pursuant to Regulation S of the Act based on your prior representation to Lincoln Gold that you are not a “U.S. Person”, as defined under Regulation S of the Act. If Concurrent Offers are accepted by all shareholders of Lincoln Gold, including yourself, and the acquisition is completed, then the Corporation will own all of the issued and outstanding shares of Lincoln Gold.

If the acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of Lincoln Gold is completed, the Corporation will issue an aggregate of 24,000,000 shares of its common stock to the existing shareholders of Lincoln Gold and will have a total of 35,400,000 shares of common stock outstanding. Accordingly, the existing shareholders of Lincoln Gold will own 67.8% of the outstanding shares of the Corporation. The Corporation’s assets and business operations are described in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 1, 2004. The Corporation is presently a reporting issuer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

You are advised to review this information and to discuss this Offer and the information regarding the Corporation with your professional advisors prior to acceptance of this Offer. It is also anticipated that each of Andrew F. B. Milligan and Paul F. Saxton, each of whom is a director of Lincoln Gold, will be appointed as a director of the Corporation upon completion of the acquisition of Lincoln Gold. It is anticipated that each of James Chapman and James Currie, each of whom is a shareholder of Lincoln Gold, will also be appointed as a director of the Corporation upon completion of the acquisition of Lincoln Gold.

This Offer is on the terms and is subject to the conditions set forth in this letter. If this Offer is acceptable, we ask that you accept this Offer by following the instructions in Section 5 of this Offer.
