CURRENT ASSET STATUS NOTES

On July 10, 2012, the Bolivian government announced to the media its intention to nationalize the Malku Khota project and on August 1, 2012, issued Supreme Decree No.1308 nationalizing the Malku Khota project. On October 23, 2012 the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, South American Silver Limited, delivered a formal letter to the Bolivian government notifying it of an investment dispute between South American Silver Limited and Bolivia. The dispute has arisen as a result of acts and omissions of the Government of Bolivia including the issuance of Supreme Decree No.1308 which revoked mining concessions held by Compañia Minera Malku Khota S.A. (CMMK), a wholly-owned subsidiary of South American Silver Limited, without any compensation.
