Northern Dynasty: Pebble Partnership Rolls Out Revenue Sharing for Full-Time Residents of Bristol Bay

‘Pebble Performance Dividend' to distribute 3% Net Profits Royalty Interest in future Pebble mine

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / June 16, 2020 / Northern Dynasty Minerals Ltd. (TSX:NDM)(NYSE American:NAK) ("Northern Dynasty" or the "Company") reports that its 100%-owned US-based subsidiary Pebble Limited Partnership (the "Pebble Partnership") has announced a local revenue sharing program to ensure full-time residents of communities in southwest Alaska benefit directly from the future operation of the proposed Pebble mine.

The Pebble Partnership has established the Pebble Performance Dividend LLP to distribute a 3% Net Profits Royalty Interest in the Pebble Project to adult residents of Bristol Bay villages that have subscribed as participants. The Pebble Performance Dividend will distribute a guaranteed minimum annual payment of US $3 million each year the Pebble mine operates beginning at the outset of project construction, with future payments following capital payback expected to be significantly greater.

The Pebble Partnership announced the Pebble Performance Dividend today, and kicked off an enrollment period whereby full-time, adult residents of Bristol Bay villages can register to participate in the revenue sharing program.

Pebble Partnership CEO Tom Collier said the Pebble Performance Dividend helps fulfill a key promise made to local people: "When we rolled out our new, smaller mine plan in 2017, I made a commitment to find a way to share the opportunity Pebble represents with the residents of Bristol Bay. While not everyone will want to work at the mine, this ensures a direct way for everyone to participate."

"Developing a mine at Pebble will provide jobs, economic activity, local tax revenue and infrastructure. Today we are adding one more way residents of the region can directly benefit from Pebble."

Pebble's ‘dividend' program is intended to mirror Alaska's Permanent Fund, which distributes an annual dividend to full-time residents of Alaska each year based on revenue derived from natural resource activity in the state, including mining. Like the Permanent Fund, the Pebble Performance Dividend will help residents and families in rural villages in southwest Alaska remain in their home communities and pursue traditional, subsistence-based lifestyles.

"We're proud to offer this benefit to the people of Bristol Bay, and hope and believe it will help make these villages and the Alaska Native culture they support sustainable for future generations," said Northern Dynasty President & CEO Ron Thiessen.

The Pebble Project is expected to receive its Final Environmental Impact Statement ("EIS") from the US Army Corps of Engineers within a matter of weeks, and a federal Record of Decision this summer. The project must then secure state permits prior to the onset of construction – a process expected to take 2-3 years to complete.

"It's an exciting time for Northern Dynasty and the Pebble Partnership, as all the work we've done over many years to advance an environmentally sound, socially responsible and financially robust project is nearing its most critical permitting milestone," Thiessen said. "In our view, the time is right to formalize our commitment to the communities of Bristol Bay to ensure that the development of Pebble directly benefits the people and families that call the region home."

Forward Looking Information and other Cautionary Factors

This release includes certain statements that may be deemed "forward-looking statements". All statements in this release, other than statements of historical facts, that address exploration drilling, exploitation activities and events or developments that the Company expects are forward-looking statements. Although the Company believes the expectations expressed in its forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, such statements should not be in any way construed as guarantees of the ultimate size, quality or commercial feasibility of the Pebble Project, that the Pebble Project will secure all required government permits, or of the Company's future performance.

Assumptions used by NDM to develop forward-looking statements include the assumptions that (i) the Pebble Project will obtain all required environmental and other permits and all land use and other licenses without undue delay, (ii) studies for the development of the Pebble Project will be positive, (iii) NDM will be able to establish the commercial feasibility of the Pebble Project, and (iv) NDM will be able to secure the financing required to develop the Pebble Project. The likelihood of future mining at the Pebble Project is subject to a large number of risks and will require achievement of a number of technical, economic and legal objectives, including (i) obtaining necessary mining and construction permits, licenses and approvals without undue delay, including without delay due to third party opposition or changes in government policies, (ii) the completion of feasibility studies demonstrating the Pebble Project mineral reserves that can be economically mined, (iii) completion of all necessary engineering for mining and processing facilities, and (iv) receipt by NDM of significant additional financing to fund these objectives as well as funding mine construction, which financing may not be available to NDM on acceptable terms or on any terms at all. The Company is also subject to the specific risks inherent in the mining business as well as general economic and business conditions, as well as risks relating to the uncertainties with respect to the effects of COVID-19.

The National Environment Policy Act EIS process requires a comprehensive "alternatives assessment" be undertaken to consider a broad range of development alternatives, the final project design and operating parameters for the Pebble Project and associated infrastructure may vary significantly from that currently being advanced. As a result, the Company will continue to consider various development options and no final project design has been selected at this time.

For more information on the Company, Investors should review the Company's filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and its home jurisdiction filings that are available at www.sedar.com.

New Eye Care Center Opens Their Doors In Charlotte

CHARLOTTE, NC / ACCESSWIRE / June 16, 2020 / Charlotte, NC-based Excel Eyecare OD PA is pleased to announce that they recently opened a new practice at 14154 Steele Creek Rd Ste 200, Charlotte, NC 28273. Their patients may expect the practice to offer a wide range of optometry services, including Vision Therapy, Dry Eye, Corneal Refractive Therapy/CRT, specialized contact lens fitting, and so on.

As Dr. Angela Bergin of Excel Eyecare OD PA observes, "Our eyes play a crucial role in our daily lives but many of us tend to take them for granted. There is more to eye care than having 20/20 vision or a good pair of spectacles. If you are experiencing any issue with your eyes or eyesight, our Charlotte practice is capable of providing you a personalized approach that can promptly address various kinds of eye problems."

As noted on the center's website, one of the many services that they offer is vision therapy. This service is usually meant for children who are having issues with reading or performing in school but is also a huge help to adults that have experienced traumatic brain injuries. Dr. Bergin says that even if a given individual has 20/20 vision, the actual visual processing happens in the brain with their eyes serving as the channels. Therefore the practice prefers to focus on the entire visual processing system, from eye teaming and focusing skills to visual processing that occurs in the brain.

Excel Eyecare OD PA is also an advanced eye dry clinic. Bergin adds that feeling sandy, gritty, uncomfortable eyes all day long is commonplace especially now with long hours of computer use, (not as much blinking, so glands in the eyelid to secrete oil for our tears get blocked). In fact, as noted on the company's website at https://www.exceleyecarenc.com, approximately 16 million people in the United States alone have been diagnosed with dry eye syndrome. People with certain health issues are also more prone to having dry eyes, and the same is true the older they get.

However, despite being a common issue, Dr. Bergin asserts that it can be helped tremendously with the right technology. Excel Eyecare OD PA has the modern technology required to accurately image the glands inside the eyelid (that if blocked or die-off will cause dry eye syndrome). The device in question is called a keratograph, and it takes the image of the affected glands in detail (actual imaging is called meibography, taking a picture of the meibomian glands). The clinic also has a second, larger piece of tech called the Lipiflow. LipiFlow treatment addresses the dry eye condition through the application of heat and eyelid massage, clearing blockages, and getting one's eyes functioning properly again.

One of the other many services that they offer is Corneal Refractive Therapy/CRT, also known as Ortho-K Therapy. The Ortho-K is a non-surgical, reversible option that is used to treat nearsightedness. Dr. Bergin explains that Ortho-K utilizes hard contact lenses that patients can sleep in, like an overnight retainer for the eyes. Children who do sports are often considered prime candidates for this therapy.

Dr. Bergin adds, "My team aims to provide you with one-on-one attention, and they maintain a full commitment to safeguarding your eye health in a modern and comfortable environment. We are dedicated to giving you the best means to improve your eye health, and we want to keep you and your family coming back to see us for all of your eye care needs. For directions to our office, questions about our services, or to stay up to date with the latest eye therapies and procedures, please visit our website.

Dr. Angela Bergin is a licensed optometrist who has been practicing for nearly 20 years. She works hard to stay current on the latest advances in eye health and vision care, and she regularly attends continuing education seminars and advanced training courses. Excel Eyecare asserts that it is due to Dr. Bergin‘s dedication to furthering her education that their Charlotte patients receive the most modern and progressive vision care available.

https://www.youtube.com/embed/XtNYUExfpf0

Those interested may find more information on the eye center's website. Dr. Bergin also invites the general public to visit their new practice in Charlotte at their earliest convenience to ensure their eyes are in good condition. Furthermore, interested parties may connect with Excel Eyecare OD PA on Facebook and other social media platforms to stay abreast of their latest news and important announcements.

According to the Complaint, the Company made false and misleading statements to the market. Baidu failed to maintain compliance with Chinese laws and regulations with its feed services. The Company was at a heightened risk of enforcement action by the Chinese government based on the noncompliance. This threat meant that the Company's revenues derived from online marketing were likely not to be sustainable. Based on these facts, the Company's public statements were false and materially misleading. When the market learned the truth about Baidu, investors suffered damages.

Join the case to recover your losses.

The class, in this case, has not yet been certified, and until certification occurs, you are not represented by an attorney. If you choose to take no action, you can remain an absent class member.

According to the Complaint, the Company made false and misleading statements to the market. Ryder engaged in a pattern of overstating the residual value of its vehicles, which in turn inflated its financial results. The Company lacked any basis for the belief that its vehicles would sell for the values it assigned to them. The Company overstated these vehicles to such a degree that it was forced to take a $357 million depreciation charge related to the reduction of residual values in 2019. Based on these facts, the Company's public statements were false and materially misleading throughout the class period. When the market learned the truth about Ryder, investors suffered damages.

Join the case to recover your losses.
