When relying on our forward-looking statements to make decisions with respect to Stornoway, investors and others should carefully consider the foregoingfactors and other uncertainties and potential events. Stornoway does not undertake to update any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, thatmay be made from time to time by Stornoway or on our behalf, except as required by law.

Readers are referred to the technical report dated December 29th, 2011 in respect of the November 2011 Feasibility Study for the Renard DiamondProject, the technical report dated February 28th, 2013 in respect of the January 2013 Optimization Study, and the press release dated July 23rd 2013 inrespect of the July 2013 Mineral Resource estimate for further details and assumptions relating to the project. These technical reports and this pressrelease list the names of the Qualified Persons in respect of these studies.

Notes: Debt Facility: In December 2010, Stornoway announced a $100 million Credit Support Agreement with a subsidiary of Société générale de financement du Québec, now InvestissmentQuébec, with respect to future project debt financing. The Credit Support Agreement has an annual commitment fee of 175 bps undrawn, and will take the form of a direct project loan ranking pari passu with concurrent senior lenders or, as appropriate, on a stand alone basis on terms no less favourable than prevailing commercially reasonable market terms.

Presenter
Presentation Notes
In addition to the Renard cluster, several other strong indicator mineral results with associated pebbles and cobbles of kimberlite and diamonds in till suggest the potential for new discoveries at the North, Southeast and Lynx Anomalies. The Lynx Anomaly is only 2 km west of the Renard cluster and has returned kimberlitic dyke intersections at 15 locations over 3.7 km along strike. Boulder samples processed by DMS have indicated diamond contents of 120 cpht, 256 cpht and 47 cpht in three locations over this strike length. The 5.66 carat diamond comes from the south end of the dyke system. Two other areas of boulders and cobbles of kimberlitic rock have been discovered on the Foxtrot property outside of this figure. The furthest prospect is 15 km from the Renard Core Area. Therefore, outside of the Renard cluster, we have six high priority indicator mineral and/or associated kimberlite cobbles that indicate excellent potential for new discoveries on the Foxtrot property.

Resource Based Mine Plan(Basis of December 2012 ESIA and Mine Permitting)

Represents the mine plan contained within the Renard December 2012 ESIA and operating authorizations. Not part of Stornoway’s public disclosure consistent with NI 43-101.

Increased project valuation and mine life.

Includes the mining of up to 17mcarat Inferred Resources within the scope of the Feasibility Study mine infrastructure.

Includes the mining of up to 2.3mcarat Indicated Resources within a Renard 65 open pit for increased annual processing capacity from 2.2mtonnes/yr to 2.5mtonnes/yr.

Additional sustaining capital only, principally on underground mine. Incremental capital for deepening of production ramp from 600m to 700m depth.

Does not include non-resource exploration upside. All pipes open at depth.

Reserve and Resource categories are compliant with the "CIM Definition Standards onMineral Resources and Reserves". Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves donot have demonstrated economic viability. The potential quantity and grade of anyExploration Target is conceptual in nature, and it is uncertain if further exploration willresult in the target being delineated as a mineral resource.

14% Increase in Indicated Resources

July 2013: Additional 2.3Mcarats at Renard 65 (7.9 Mtonnes at 29cpht), open pittable to 150m depth.

7% Reduction in Op-ex with LNG Option

October 2013: Annual op-ex reduction of up to $10m using LNG for power generation, with incremental cap-ex increase of just $2.6m.

10% Improvement in C$:US$ ExchangeCurrent US$0.90 rate boosts operating margin and increases NAV compared to parity dollar assumption used in Jan 2013 FS Optimization.

Increase in Average Diamond Prices

March 2013: Revised estimates of US$190/ct for Renard 2; US$180/ct for Renard 65, and an estimated +5% additional market movement since.

New Québec Tax Regime Absorbed

May 2013: New Québec system of mining taxation and royalties: Long term clarity on tax environment.

14Renard’s High Value DiamondsLarge Diamond Potential Not Included in Base Case Diamond Valuation Models

The Renard kimberlite pipes have similar, but marginally different diamond populations exhibiting coarse size distributions and with high proportions of large white gems.

99% by weight gem/near-gem quality. 1% industrial quality boart.

Value Upside in Large Gems: Diamonds larger than 10.8ct (“Specials”) estimated at three to six 50 -100ct stones and one to two +100ct stones every 100,000 carats (two weeks). Not accounted for in the revenue model.

The January 2013 FS Optimization utilized an average diamond valuation of US$180/ct based on May 2011 prices.

Construction of an all-season access road connecting Renard to the Québec highway system began in Feb. 2012.

Road segments A & B (143 km) constructed by Québec as a 2-lane highway. Segments C & D (97 km) constructed by Stornoway as the single lane “Renard Mine Road”.

All 4 segments were connected and opened for mine construction traffic on August 30th 2013, 2 months ahead of schedule and approximately 10% below budget.

To complete this work, Québec provided Stornoway $77m of debt financing, repayable upon commercial production at Renard.

Stornoway has been able to apply $7m of debt savings to complete the civil works for the Renard Aerodrome.

Notes: The potential quantity and grade of any exploration target (previously referred to as “potential mineral deposit”) is conceptual in nature, and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource. The exploration upside for the Renard kimberlite pipes has been determined by projecting reasonable kimberlite

volumes from the base of the inferred Resource to a depth of 700m below surface. In the case of the Lynx and Hibou dykes, the exploration upside was established on the basis of known drill intersections of kimberlite for which insufficient diamond sampling exists to adequately estimate a diamond resource grade.

36Liquefied Natural Gas Power Plant Feasibility Study Released October 2013

With a view to project optimization, Stornoway has been investigating more cost efficient alternatives for on-site power supply than traditional diesel fuelled gen-sets.

A Hydro-Québec powerline has been ruled out in the short term due to high cap-ex cost.

On October 21st Stornoway announced it will proceed with an LNG fuelled gen-set option, made possible by the ability to receive regular cryogenic LNG shipments on the Renard Mine Road.

The Renard LNG plant will comprise seven 2.1MW rated gas gen-sets, providing sufficient power generation capacity for the project’s normal operating specification of 9.5MW.

Page 37: Stornoway Presentation at PDAC 2014

37Liquefied Natural Gas Power PlantFeasibility Study Released October 2013

An LNG fuelled powerplant for Renard offers many advantages over diesel:• Greatly reduced annual operating costs of $8m to $10m per year, for a small incremental capital cost

of $2.6m.• Up to 43% less greenhouse gas emissions.• Long term, stable supply market utilizing existing commercial distribution network within Quebec.• Elimination of on-site propane, as LNG will be used for building and underground mine heating.

Diesel will continue to be used for the mobile mining fleet and construction activities

De Beers Production Forecast Rio Tinto Production Forecast

Almost all rough diamond production forecasts show flat or declining production long term. De Beers see production peaking in 2017, and broad reserve depletion thereafter.

Rough production is not expected to reach 2008 levels in carat terms again.

No large scale diamond mine has been discovered since the discovery of EKATI and Diavik in the early 1990s. The movement to underground mining in Russia, South Africa and Canada will lower overall industry margins.
