Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it was made, and except as may be required by
applicable securities laws, Sun Metals disclaims any intent or obligation to update any forward-looking statement,

assumptions inherent in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, forward-looking statements are not
guarantees of future performance and accordingly undue reliance should not be put on such statements due to their
inherent uncertainty.
