10. NAC sales tonnages 10 6,459 3,448 ► From 1977 to 2004, annual sales volume averaged 880 thousand WMT ► In 2005, CBNC commenced commercial operations ► From 2005 to 2007, sales volume grew at an effective annual rate of 65% ► In 2008, following the global financial crisis, volume down by 53% ► From 2008 to 2013, sales volume grew at an effective annual rate of 32%

11. 11 Low cost nickel producer ► Favorable geologic conditions at all of our four mines, with near-surface open-pit deposits ► Mining does not require explosives, chemicals or complex waste handling ► Ability to sell limonite ore and lower grades of saprolite ore to the China NPI market and Coral Bay HPAL enables lower unit cost per WMT of nickel ore sold ► All four operating mines are located within 3 to 7 km from the tidewater loading area ► Rehabilitation of our mining areas is a simple and straightforward process
