3. Statements contained in this presentation which are not historical facts are forward-looking statements that involve risks,
uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause such differences, without limiting the generality of the following, include:
risks inherent in exploration activities; volatility and sensitivity to market prices for uranium and rare earths; volatility and
sensitivity to capital market fluctuations; the impact of exploration competition; the ability to raise funds through private or
public equity financings; imprecision in resource and reserve estimates; environmental and safety risks including increased
regulatory burdens; unexpected geological or hydrological conditions; a possible deterioration in political support for nuclear
energy and rare earth technologies; changes in government regulations and policies, including trade laws and policies; demand
for nuclear power and rare earth products; failure to obtain necessary permits and approvals from government authorities;
weather and other natural phenomena; and other exploration, development, operating, financial market and regulatory risks.
Although Stans Energy Corp. believes that the assumptions inherent in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, undue
reliance should not be placed on these statements, which only apply as of the date of this release. Stans Energy Corp. disclaims
any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future
events or otherwise
Cautionary Note to United States and Other Investors Concerning Estimates of Measured, Indicated and Inferred Resources:
Certain tables may use the terms “Measured”, “Indicated” and “Inferred” Resources. United States investors are advised that
while such terms are recognized and required by Canadian regulations, however, the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission does not recognize them. “Inferred Mineral Resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and
as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an Inferred Mineral Resource will ever be
upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of Inferred Mineral Resources may not form the basis of
feasibility or other economic studies. United States investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of Measured or
Indicated Mineral Resources will ever be converted into Mineral Reserves. United States investors are also cautioned not to
assume that all or any part of a Mineral Resource is economically or legally mineable.

32. Kyrgyzstan Foreign Investment
• New Kyrgyz Government has made mining and property rights its number 1 and 2 priorities in terms of
foreign investment
• The Basic Foreign Investment Law, adopted in June 1991, allows foreign investors full use of their
profits, including unlimited export of profits in the form of foreign currency or merchandise.
• Foreign firms also enjoy considerable tax advantages, which extend to Kyrgyz partners in joint ventures.
• Investors are granted relief from import duties on materials needed to establish a business, and they
continue receiving tax relief for up to five years, depending on their type of business.
• After that time, several other types of tax relief are available, including various forms of reinvestment in
Kyrgyzstan's economy.
Mining in Kyrgyzstan
• In contrast to the previous regimes, the current government is enhancing the procedure for obtaining
exploration licenses in favor of the mining companies.
• As for the general licensing procedures, the laws stick to a more transparent procedure providing for
issuance of a license on a “first come first served” basis.
• As opposed to licensing, concession and production sharing agreement regimes should allow companies to
negotiate with the state individual terms that meet the companies’ needs.
• Additionally, in order to avoid the state courts, the concession or production sharing agreement can provide
for the jurisdiction of international arbitration courts if any legal disputes occur.
