FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
This news release contains "forward-looking information" within
the meaning of applicable securities laws. Forward-looking
information includes, but is not limited to, information concerning
the proposed transaction involving PGI, PGHI and PMC and matters
relating thereto. Generally, forward-looking information can be
identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as
"plans", "expects", or "does not expect", "is expected", "budget",
"scheduled", "estimates", "forecasts", "intends", "anticipates", or
"does not anticipate", or "believes" or variations of such words
and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results
"may", "could", "would", "might", or "will be taken", "occur", or
"be achieved". Forward-looking information is based on the opinions
and estimates of management at the date the information is made,
and is based on a number of assumptions and subject to a variety of
risks and uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual
events or results to differ materially from those projected in the
forward-looking information. Assumptions upon which such
forward-looking information is based include, without limitation,
that the shareholders of PGI will approve the Transaction, that all
required third party, court, regulatory and governmental approvals
to the Transaction will be obtained and all other conditions to
completion of the Transaction will be satisfied or waived. Many of
these assumptions are based on factors and events that are not
within the control of PGI, PGHI and PMC and there is no assurance
they will prove to be correct.
Factors that could cause actual results to vary materially from
results anticipated by such forward-looking information include,
among others, risks related to international operations; risks
related to joint venture operations; actual results of current
exploration activities; changes in project parameters as plans
continue to be refined, future prices of resources; possible
variations in reserves, grade or recovery rates, accidents, labour
disputes and other risks of the mining industry; and delays in
obtaining governmental approvals or financing or in the completion
of development or construction activities as well as those risk
factors discussed in the management discussion and analysis for the
year ended December 31, 2008 for PGI available at www.sedar.com.
Although PGI has attempted to identify important factors that could
cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from
those described in forward-looking information, there may be other
factors that cause actions, events or results not to be
anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that
forward-looking information will prove to be accurate, as actual
results and future events could differ materially from those
anticipated in such information. PGI undertakes no obligation to
update forward-looking information if circumstances or management's
estimates or opinions should change except as required by
applicable securities laws. The reader is cautioned not to place
undue reliance on forward-looking information.
