Bulk Permit Application, page-8

Had a read of the local First Nations Annual Report and had another look at Atrums last quarterly report. Interesting to see the differences in perception. Long and short of it, I believe the H2 approval expectation may be a challenge.

Atrum perspective:

Atrum completed the preparatory work for the Bulk Sample Permit, which included substantial
negotiations with First Nations and community representatives in consultation with representatives of
the British Columbia and local Government. Subsequent to the Quarter Atrum is pleased to announce
the Permit Application has moved into the statutory Review period. Atrum now expect approval in H2​

2015.

First Nations perspective:

Groundhog proponent Atrum Coal and THREAT held an initial meeting and presentation of the application in January 2015. Community meetings for the project and proposed permit were held in the communities of Iskut, Telegraph Creek and Dease Lake On May 26th, 27th and 28th respectively. Roxanne Ball provided support to set up the meetings and Heather Hawkins attended the meetings on behalf of THREAT to provide an overview of our report. THREAT submitted a work plan and budget to Atrum for THREAT services to review the application.
