1. 2021 Guidance, which was announced in January 2021 (see Karora news release dated January 19, 2021), is unchanged. This production guidance through 2024 is principally based on the 2020 year-end Mineral
   Reserves and Mineral Resources announced on December 16, 2020.
2. The Capital Investment amounts listed above, which the Corporation expects to fund with cash on hand and cashflow from operations, includes the capital required during the applicable periods to expand the
   capacity of the Higginsville mill to 2.5 Mtpa. See below for further detail regarding this expansion.
3. The material assumptions associated with the expansion of Beta Hunt mining production rate to 2.0 Mtpa in 2024 include the addition of a second ramp decline system driven parallel to the ore body, ventilation and
   other infrastructure that is required to support these areas, and an expanded trucking fleet. The Capital Investment amounts listed above, which the Corporation expects to fund with cash on hand and cashflow from
   operations, include the capital required during the applicable periods to fund this throughput expansion. See below for further detail regarding this expansion.
4. The Corporation’s guidance assumes targeted mining rates and costs, availability of personnel, contractors, equipment and supplies, the receipt on a timely basis of required permits and licenses, cash availability for
   capital investments from cash balances, cash flow from operations, or from a third-party debt financing source on terms acceptable to the Corporation, no significant events which impact operations, such as COVID-
   19, nickel price of US$16,000 per tonne, as well as an A$ to US$ exchange rate of 0.78 and A$ to C$ exchange rate of 0.91. Assumptions used for the purposes of guidance may prove to be incorrect and actual
   results may differ from those anticipated. See below “Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements”.
5. Exploration expenditures include capital expenditures related to infill drilling for Mineral Resource conversion, capital expenditures for extension drilling outside of existing Mineral Resources and expensed
   exploration. Exploration expenditures also includes capital expenditures for the development of exploration drifts.
6. Capital expenditures exclude capitalized depreciation.
7. AISC guidance includes general and administrative costs and excludes share-based payment expense.
8. See “Non-IFRS Measures” set on page 4 of this presentation.
9. See “Risk Factors” described on page 29 of the Corporation’s MD&A dated March 19, 2021.
