This news release contains “forward-looking information” and “forward-looking statements” (which we refer to collectively as forward-looking information) under the provisions of applicable securities legislation. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, are forwarding-looking information. Examples of forward-looking information in this news release include: the Company’s expected transition from developer to operator, assuming the successful development of the Caucharí-Olaroz and Thacker Pass projects; the completion of construction and commencement of production at such projects; and the Company’s ability to successfully fund development of the Thacker Pass project.

Forward-looking information may involve known and unknown risks, assumptions and uncertainties which may cause the Company’s actual results or performance to differ materially. This information reflects the Company’s current views with respect to future events and is necessarily based upon a number of assumptions that, while considered reasonable by the Company today, are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies. These assumptions include, among others, the Company’s ability to fund, advance and develop the projects in which it holds an interest to commercial production, including obtaining additional financing as needed; maintenance of a positive business relationship with project partners (including projects under co-ownership arrangements); uncertainties related to receiving and maintaining mining, exploration, environmental and other permits or approvals in Nevada and Argentina; exploration, development and construction costs for the Caucharí-Olaroz and Thacker Pass projects; the accuracy of estimates of mineral resources and mineral reserves, and of development budgets and construction estimates; reliability of technical data; anticipated timing and results of exploration, development and construction activities, including the impact of COVID-19 on such timing; timely responses from governmental agencies responsible for reviewing and considering permitting activities; forecasted demand for lithium, including that such demand is supported by growth in the electric vehicle market; the impact of increasing competition in the lithium business, and LAC’s competitive position in the industry; the outcome and impact of any litigation; general economic conditions; a stable and supportive legislative, regulatory and community environment in the jurisdictions where the Company operates; the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business generally, including issues impacting supply chains generally; the expected benefits from prior transactions; and preparation of a development plan and feasibility study for lithium production at the Thacker Pass project.

Forward-looking information also involves known and unknown risks that may cause actual results to differ materially. These risks include, among others, inherent risks in the development of capital intensive mineral projects (including as co-owners); variations in mineral resources and mineral reserves; global demand for lithium; recovery rates and lithium pricing; risks associated with successfully securing adequate financing; changes in project parameters and funding thereof; risks related to the growth of lithium markets and pricing for products thereof; changes in legislation, governmental or community policy; political risk associated with foreign operations; permitting risk, including receipt of new permits and maintenance of existing permits; title and access risk; cost overruns; unpredictable weather and maintenance of natural resources; unanticipated delays; intellectual property risks; currency and interest rate fluctuations; operational risks; health and safety risks; and, general market and industry conditions. Additional risks, assumptions and other factors are set out in the Company’s latest management discussion analysis and annual information form, copies of which are available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
