RISE GOLD CORP.

(An Exploration Stage Company)

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE PERIOD ENDED JANUARY 31, 2019

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS

Rise Gold Corp. (the “Company”) was originally incorporated as Atlantic Resources Inc. in the State of Nevada on February 9, 2007 and is in the exploration stage. On April 11, 2012, the Company merged its wholly-owned subsidiary, Patriot Minefinders Inc., a Nevada corporation, in and to the Company to effect a name change to Patriot Minefinders Inc. On January 14, 2015, the Company completed a name change to Rise Resources Inc. in the same manner. On April 7, 2017, the Company changed its name to Rise Gold Corp. These mergers were carried out solely for the purpose of effecting these changes of names.

On February 16, 2015, the Company increased its authorized capital from 21,000,000 shares to 400,000,000 shares.

On January 29, 2016, the Company completed an initial public offering in Canada and began trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”) on February 1, 2016. On November 28, 2017, the Company ceased trading on the OTC Pink Market and began trading on the OTCQB Venture Market.

The Company is in the early stages of exploration and as is common with any exploration company, it raises financing for its acquisition activities. The accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which presumes that the Company will continue operations for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred a loss of $3,127,443 for the period ended January 31, 2019 and has accumulated a deficit of $13,749,230. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to maintain continued support from its shareholders and creditors and to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

At January 31, 2019, the Company had working capital deficit of $667,820.

BASIS OF PREPARATION

Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for financial information with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-K. Results are not necessarily indicative of results which may be achieved in the future. The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, which contains the audited financial statements and notes thereto, together with Management’s Discussion and Analysis, for the year ended July 31, 2018. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations. The operating results for the three and six months ended January 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended July 31, 2019.

Basis of Consolidation

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary Rise Grass Valley Inc. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE PERIOD ENDED JANUARY 31, 2019

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

BASIS OF PREPARATION (continued)

Basis of Consolidation (continued)

Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Company has exposure to variable returns from its involvement and has the ability to use power over the investee to affect its returns. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Company controls another entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Company until the date on which control ceases.

The accounts of subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies. Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealized gains or losses on transactions are eliminated upon consolidation.

Recently Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, “Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Liabilities”. This ASU amendment addresses aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments. It affects investments in equity securities and the presentation of certain fair value changes for financial liabilities measured at fair value, and simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without a readily determinable fair value by requiring a qualitative assessment. The ASU applies to all entities and is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods thereafter, with early adoption permitted.

Other than the above, the Company has determined that other significant newly issued accounting pronouncements are either not applicable to the Company’s business or that no material effect is expected on the financial statements as a result of future adoption.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant areas requiring the use of estimates include the carrying value and recoverability of mineral properties and the recognition of deferred tax assets based on the change in unrecognized deductible temporary tax differences. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and would impact future results of operations and cash flows.

Title to mineral properties

Title to mineral properties involves certain inherent risks due to the difficulties of determining the validity of certain mineral titles as well as the potential for problems arising from the frequently ambiguous conveying history characteristic of many mineral properties. As at January 31, 2019, the Company holds title to the Idaho-Maryland Gold Mine Property.

As of January 31, 2019, based on management’s review of the carrying value of mineral rights, management determined that there is no evidence that the cost of these acquired mineral rights will not be fully recovered and accordingly, the Company determined that no adjustment to the carrying value of mineral rights was required. As of the date of these consolidated financial statements, the Company has not established any proven or probable reserves on its mineral properties and has incurred only acquisition and exploration costs.

Idaho-Maryland Gold Mine Property, California

On August 30, 2016, the Company entered into an option agreement with three parties to purchase a 100% interest in and to the Idaho-Maryland Gold Mine property located near Grass Valley, California, United States; pursuant to the option agreement, in order to exercise the option, the Company must pay US$2,000,000 by November 30, 2016. Upon execution of the option agreement, the Company paid the vendors a non-refundable cash deposit in the amount of $32,758 (US$25,000), which will be credited against the purchase price of US$2,000,000 upon exercise of the option. On November 30, 2016, the Company negotiated an extension of the closing date of the option agreement to December 26, 2016, in return for a cash payment of $32,758 (US$25,000), which will be credited against the purchase price of US$2,000,000 upon exercise of the option. On December 28, 2016, the Company negotiated a further no-cost extension of the closing date of the option agreement to April 30, 2017. On January 25, 2017, the Company exercised the option by paying $2,588,625 (US$1,950,000), and acquired a 100% interest in the Idaho-Maryland Gold Mine property.

Idaho-Maryland Gold Mine Property, California (continued)

In connection with the option agreement, the Company agreed to pay a cash commission of $184,000 (US$140,000) equal to 7 per cent of the purchase price of US$2,000,000; the commission was settled on January 25, 2017 through the issuance of 920,000 units valued at $0.20 per unit (Note 10). The Company also incurred additional transaction costs of $144,391, which have been included the carrying value of the Idaho-Maryland Gold Mine.

On January 6, 2017, the Company entered into an option agreement with Sierra Pacific Industries Inc. (“Sierra”) to purchase a 100% interest in and to certain surface rights totalling approximately 82 acres located near Grass Valley, California, United States, contiguous to the Idaho-Maryland Gold Mine property acquired by the Company on January 25, 2017. Pursuant to the option agreement, in order to exercise the option, the Company must pay US$1,900,000 by March 31, 2017. Upon execution of the option agreement, the Company paid the vendors a non-refundable cash deposit in the amount of $132,732 (US$100,000), which will be credited against the purchase price of US$1,900,000 upon exercise of the option. On April 3, 2017, the Company negotiated an extension of the closing date of the option agreement to June 30, 2017, in return for a cash payment of $268,000 (US$200,000), at which time a payment of US$1,600,000 is due in order to exercise the option. On June 7, 2017, the Company negotiated an extension of the closing date of the option agreement to September 30, 2017, in return for a cash payment of $406,590 (US$300,000), at which time a payment of US$1,300,000 is due in order to exercise the option.

On May 14, 2018, the Company completed the purchase of the surface rights totalling approximately 82 acres by making final payments totalling $1,657,820 (US$1,300,000).

On September 17, 2014, the Company learned that it was the subject, along with a number of additional defendants, of a notice of civil claim (the “Claim”) filed in the Supreme Court of British Columbia by Wundr, under which Wundr is seeking general damages from the Company as well as damages for conspiracy to cause economic harm. None of the allegations contained in the Claim have been proven in court. Management has determined that the probability of the Claim resulting in an unfavourable outcome and financial loss to the Company is unlikely.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On March 1, 2019, the Company announced that it has completed a non-brokered private placement (“the Private Placement”) for a total of $1,827,472 through the sale of 18,274,724 units (each a “Unit”) at a price of $0.10 per Unit where each Unit consists of one share of common stock (a “Share”) and one-half of one share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant entitles the holder to acquire one additional Share at an exercise price of $0.13 until March 1, 2021.

In conjunction with the closing, a total of 10,049,724 Units have been issued to Yamana, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Meridian Jerritt Canyon Corp. (the “Acquiror”), upon conversion of a $1.0 million principal amount and accrued interest of a secured convertible debenture (the “Debenture”) advanced to the Company prior to the closing of the Private Placement (the “Committed Funds”). The Committed Funds were being advanced to Rise Gold prior to the closing of the Private Placement pursuant to the terms of a secured convertible debenture. The Debenture has a term of six months and an annual interest rate of 12%, calculated and compounded monthly, payable in cash or Units at Yamana’s option, except as described below. The principal amount of the Debenture and any accrued interest thereon is convertible into Units at a conversion price of C$0.10 per Unit (the “Conversion Price”) at any time in the sole discretion of the Acquiror. In addition, the principal amount of the Debenture will automatically be converted into Units at the Conversion Price if, during the term of the Debenture, Rise Gold is able to raise proceeds of C$800,000 under the Private Placement from investors other than Yamana.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (continued)

Following the conversion of the Debenture, the Acquiror owns 27,549,724 Shares and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 13,774,862 Shares, representing approximately 16.77% of Rise Gold’s issued and outstanding Shares on a non-diluted basis, and approximately 23.21% of Rise Gold’s issued and outstanding Shares on a partially diluted basis, assuming the exercise of the warrants held by the Acquiror. Yamana is an insider of Rise Gold by virtue of its shareholdings, and as a result, the transactions with Rise Gold constitute a “related party transaction” under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The related party transaction is exempt from the formal valuation requirements of Section 5.4 of MI 61-101 pursuant to subsection 5.5(a) of MI 61-101, and exempt from the minority approval requirements of Section 5.6 of MI 61-101 pursuant to subsection 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 as the fair market value of the transactions do not exceed 25% of the Rise Gold’s market capitalization. A material change report as contemplated by the related party transaction requirements under MI 61-101 was not filed more than 21 days prior to the proposed closing of the Debenture financing, as the funds to be advanced are presently required to meet Rise Gold’s anticipated short-term cash and project requirements. All securities issued pursuant to the Private Placement will be subject to statutory hold periods in accordance with applicable United States and Canadian securities laws. Rise Gold will use the proceeds from the Private Placement for the advancement of its Idaho-Maryland Gold Project and for general working capital. The securities offered have not been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”), or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold absent registration or compliance with an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. While the Acquiror currently has no plans or intentions with respect to the Rise Gold securities, the Acquiror may develop such plans or intentions in the future and, at such time, may from time to time acquire additional securities, dispose of some or all of the existing or additional securities or may continue to hold the Shares, warrants or other securities of Rise Gold based on market conditions, general economic and industry conditions, trading prices of Rise Gold’s securities, Rise Gold’s business, financial condition and prospects and/or other relevant factors.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

SPECIAL NOTE OF CAUTION REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements in this report, including statements in the following discussion, are what are known as “forward looking statements”, which are basically statements about the future. For that reason, these statements involve risk and uncertainty since no one can accurately predict the future. Words such as “plans”, “intends”, “will”, “hopes”, “seeks”, “anticipates”, “expects” and the like often identify such forward looking statements, but are not the only indication that a statement is a forward looking statement. Such forward looking statements include statements concerning our plans and objectives with respect to present and future operations, and statements which express or imply that such present and future operations will or may produce revenues, income or profits. Numerous factors and future events could cause US to change such plans and objectives or fail to successfully implement such plans or achieve such objectives, or cause such present and future operations to fail to produce revenues, income or profits. Therefore, the following discussion should be considered in light of the discussion of risks and other factors contained in this QUARTERLY report on Form 10-Q and in OUR other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. No statements contained in the following discussion should be construed as a guarantee or assurance of future performance or future results.

Description of Business

The Company is a mineral exploration company and its primary asset is a major past producing high grade property near Grass Valley, California, United States, which it owns outright. The Company has held several other potential mineral properties in British Columbia, Canada, which were recently written off based on the strength of the Grass Valley asset. The Company’s common stock is currently traded on the OTC Markets under the symbol “RYES”, and is listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”) under the symbol “RISE”. The Company ceased to be an OTC reporting issuer in Canada on February 2, 2016.

On May 18, 2015, the Company entered into an option agreement (the “Option Agreement”) with Eastfield Resources Ltd., a British Columbia company with its common shares listed for trading on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol “ETF” (“Eastfield”), pursuant to which Eastfield granted the Company the exclusive and irrevocable option to acquire up to a 75% undivided interest in and to certain mineral claims known as the Indata property located in the Omineca Mining Division in British Columbia, Canada (the “Indata Property”), by paying Eastfield an aggregate of $450,000 in cash, incurring a minimum of $2,500,000 in aggregate exploration expenditures on the Indata Property, and completing a feasibility study on the property. On May 5, 2017, the Company terminated the Option Agreement and wrote off $50,000 in acquisition costs relating to Indata during the year ended July 31, 2017.

Prior to entering into the Option Agreement, the Company was an exploration stage company engaged in exploring and evaluating potential strategic transactions in multiple industries, including but not limited to mineral properties and technology.

On May 31, 2016, the Company entered into a property purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Klondike Gold Corp., a British Columbia company with its common shares listed for trading on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol “KG” (“Klondike”), regarding the purchase of a portfolio of seven gold and base metal properties in southeast British Columbia consisting of 150 mining claims with a total area of 28,000 hectares (collectively, the “Klondike Properties”). Under the Purchase Agreement, on July 13, 2016 (the “First Closing”), the Company paid Klondike $50,000 in cash, issued 1,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, and issued 1,500,000 warrants exercisable at a price of $0.227 per share until July 13, 2018. On the one year anniversary of the First Closing, the Company was required to pay Klondike $150,000 in cash, issue 2,000,000 shares of the

F-17

Company’s common stock, and issue 1,000,000 warrants. Klondike would have retained a 2% net smelter return royalty (“NSR”) and the Company would have had the right to purchase 50% of the NSR for $1,000,000 at any time after the First Closing. Each of the warrants would have been exercisable for a period of two years into one share of the Company’s common stock at a price that is a 20% premium to the 10-day volume-weighted average price of the stock on the CSE immediately prior to the date of issuance. On July 17, 2017, the Company terminated the Purchase Agreement by making a one-time payment of $100,000 in cash to Klondike; accordingly, the Company wrote off $513,031 in acquisition costs relating to the Klondike Properties during the year ended July 31, 2017.

On August 30, 2016, the Company entered into an option agreement with three parties to purchase a 100% interest in and to the Idaho-Maryland Gold Mine property (the “I-M Mine Property”) located near Grass Valley, California, United States; pursuant to the option agreement, in order to exercise the option, the Company agreed to pay US$2,000,000 by November 30, 2016. Upon execution of the option agreement, the Company paid the vendors a non-refundable cash deposit in the amount of $32,758 (US$25,000), which was to be credited against the purchase price of US$2,000,000 upon exercise of the option. On November 30, 2016, the Company negotiated an extension of the closing date of the option agreement to December 26, 2016, in return for a cash payment of $32,758 (US$25,000), which also was to be credited against the purchase price of US$2,000,000 upon exercise of the option. On December 28, 2016, the Company negotiated a further no-cost extension of the closing date of the option agreement to January 31, 2017. On January 25, 2017, the Company exercised the option by paying $2,588,625 (US$1,950,000), and acquired a 100% interest in the Idaho-Maryland Gold Mine property. In connection with the option agreement, the Company agreed to pay a cash commission of $184,000 (US$140,000) equal to 7 per cent of the purchase price of US$2,000,000; the commission was settled on January 25, 2017 through the issuance of 920,000 units valued at $0.20 per unit, each unit consisting of one share of common stock and one transferable share purchase warrant exercisable into one share of common stock at a price of $0.40 for a period of two years from the date of issuance.

The Company has completed and announced the results of an exploration program on the I-M Mine Property, following a plan outlined in a National Instrument 43-101 report filed on June 1, 2017. This report was created through processing historic data on the I-M Mine Property obtained from the vendors.

On December 23, 2016, the Company completed a non-brokered private placement, issuing an aggregate of 21,044,500 units at a price of $0.20 per unit for gross proceeds of $4,208,900.

(“Sierra Pacific”) to purchase a 100% interest in and to certain surface rights totalling approximately 82 acres located near Grass Valley, California, United States, contiguous to the Idaho-Maryland Gold Mine property acquired by the Company on January 25, 2017. Pursuant to the option agreement, in order to exercise the option, the Company was to have paid US$1,900,000 by March 31, 2017. Upon execution of the option agreement, the Company paid the vendors a non-refundable cash deposit in the amount of $132,732 (US$100,000), which was credited against the purchase price of US$1,900,000 upon exercise of the option.

Plan of Operations

As at January 31, 2019, the Company had a cash balance of $64,426, compared to a cash balance of $69,616 as of July 31, 2018.

Our plan of operations for the next 12 months is to continue our current diamond drilling exploration activities at the I-M Mine Property.

Rise has initiated but not yet completed an exploration drilling program on the I-M Mine Property to date. Up to January 31, 2019, Rise has completed twelve drill holes, B-17-01, B-18-02 thru B-18-07, Z-18-08 & Z-18-09m and I-18-10-I-18-12. Drill hole I-19-13 was in progress and at a depth of 993 m at January 31, 2019. Total drilling completed to January 31, 2019 by Rise Gold is ~13,214 meters. Assay results for drill holes up to B-18-10 have been released as at January 31, 2019.

Rise Gold has implemented a quality control program for our drill program to ensure best practices in the sampling and analysis of the drill core. This includes the insertion of blind blanks, duplicates and certified standards. HQ and NQ sized drill core is saw cut with half of the drill core sampled at intervals based on geological criteria including lithology, visual mineralization, and alteration. The remaining half of the core is stored on-site at our warehouse in Grass Valley, California. Drill core samples are transported in sealed bags to ALS Minerals analytical assay lab in Reno, Nevada.

All gold assays were obtained using a method of screen fire assaying. The Historic I-M Mine Project is known to contain ‘coarse’ gold, for which a screen fire assay is the best way to obtain a definitive result. This procedure involves screening a large pulverized sample of up to 1 kg at 100 microns. The entire oversize (including the disposable screen) is fire assayed as this contains the ‘coarse’ gold and a duplicate determination is made on the ‘minus’ 100 micron fraction. A calculation can then be made to determine the total weight of gold in the sample. Any +100 micron material remaining on the screen is retained and analyzed in its entirety by fire assay with gravimetric finish and reported as the Au (+) fraction result. The –100 micron fraction is homogenized and two sub-samples of 50 grams are analyzed by fire assay with AAS finish. If the grade of the material exceeds 10 gpt the sample is re-assayed using a gravimetric finish. The average of the two results is taken and reported as the Au (-) fraction result. All three values are used in calculating the combined gold content of the plus and minus fractions.

We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue our proposed exploration activities. For these reasons, our auditors believe that there is substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern.

As of January 31, 2019, the Company had $64,426 in cash, $336,704 in current assets, $6,669,289 in total assets, $1,004,524 in current liabilities and $1,124,489 in total liabilities, working capital of $(667,820) and an accumulated deficit of $13,749,230.

During the six month period ended January 31, 2019, the Company used $2,609,332 (2018 - $1,426,484) in net cash on operating activities. The difference in net cash used in operating activities during the two periods was largely due to the increase in the Company’s net loss for the most recent period.

During the six month period ended January 31, 2019, the Company used net cash of $125,660 (2018 - $750,243) in investing activities on its mineral property.

The Company received net cash of $2,729,802 (2018 - $1,983,003) from financing activities during the six month period ended January 31, 2019. During the period ended January 31, 2019, the Company also repaid $10,000 in loans previously received from a related party.

The Company expects to operate at a loss for at least the next 12 months. It has no agreements for additional financing and cannot provide any assurance that additional funding will be available to finance its operations on acceptable terms in order to enable it to carry out its business plan. There are no assurances that the Company will be able to complete further sales of its common stock or any other form of additional financing. If the Company is unable to achieve the financing necessary to continue its plan of operations, then it will not be able to carry out any exploration work on the Idaho-Maryland Property or the other properties in which it owns an interest and its business may fail.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

F-24

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) defines the term “disclosure controls and procedures” to mean controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of the end of the period covered by this Report, management of the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of January 31, 2019 because a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting existed as of that date as a result of a lack of segregation of incompatible duties due to insufficient personnel.

A material weakness is a deficiency or a combination of control deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the period ended January 31, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

On September 17, 2014, the Company learned that it was the subject, along with a number of additional defendants, of a notice of civil claim (the “Claim”) filed in the Supreme Court of British Columbia by Wundr Software Inc. (“Wundr”), an eBook software developer. Wundr and the Company were formerly parties to a binding letter of intent that was announced on November 12, 2013 (the “Wundr LOI”), pursuant to which the Company proposed to acquire 100% of the outstanding shares of Wundr. On January 10, 2014, the Company reported that the Wundr LOI had expired.

Among other things, the Claim alleges that the Company committed the tort of intentional interference with economic or contractual relations by virtue of its role in an alleged scheme to establish a competing business to Wundr, and that the Company, through its agents, breached the terms of the Wundr LOI by appropriating certain confidential information and intellectual property of Wundr for the purpose of establishing a competing business. The Claim also alleges that the Company is vicariously liable for the actions of its agents.

Wundr is seeking general damages from the Company as well as damages for conspiracy to cause economic harm. None of the allegations contained in the Claim have been proven in court, the Company believes that they are without merit, and it therefore intends to vigorously defend its position against Wundr.

Other than as described above, the Company is not aware of any material pending legal proceedings to which it is a party or of which its property is the subject. The Company also knows of no proceedings to which any of its directors, officers or affiliates, or any registered or beneficial holders of more than 5% of any class of the Company’s securities, or any associate of any such director, officer, affiliate or security holder are an adverse party or have a material interest adverse to the Company.
