Mr. Jan Castro, Chairman of AMR, stated, "In order to maximize the use of the

Phuc Nickel Project to commercial production".

term and an exercise price of CDN$0.10 per common share of AMR. The options
granted in respect of compensation and in consideration for past services from
April 1, 2012 to June 30, 2012 will vest immediately. The options granted in
respect of compensation and in consideration for services from July 1, 2012 to
June 30, 2013 will vest quarterly in four equal portions on September 30, 2012,
December 31, 2012, March 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, subject to continued
