ADVISORY ON FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS: This press release contains certain
forward-looking information and statements within the meaning of applicable
securities laws. The use of any of the words "expect", "anticipate", "continue",
"estimate", "may", "will", "project", "should", "believe", "plans", "intends"
and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking information or
statements. In particular, but without limiting the forgoing, this press release
contains statements concerning the anticipated use of the proceeds of the
Private Placement. 


Forward-looking statements or information are based on a number of material
factors, expectations or assumptions of Contact which have been used to develop
such statements and information but which may prove to be incorrect. Although
Contact believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking
statements are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on them because
Contact can give no assurance that they will prove to be correct. Since
forward-looking statements address future events and conditions, by their very
nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. The intended use of the
proceeds of the Private Placement by Contact might change if the board of
directors of the Company determines that it would be in the best interests of
Contact to deploy the proceeds for some other Canadian Exploration Expense
expenditures. 


The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are made as of
the date hereof and Contact undertakes no obligations to update publicly or
revise any forward-looking statements or information, whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise, unless so required by applicable
