Risked valuation increased from NOK 29 to NOK 44 per share.

Following yesterdays drilling results, the probability of Hannukainen coming into operation is high, probably above 90%.
We increase our probability to 75% but will up that to 90% when a 43-101 resource statement is published. The
Hannukainen mine has previously been operating (open pit first by Rautaruukki and later by Outokumpu), historically
delivering high quality iron ore and significantly higher grades of copper and gold than we assume. Almost all required
infrastructure (except processing plant) is in place. In our view the risk is on execution, how quick the project can be
advanced and at what cost. We believe our cost estimates are conservative. The progress will depend on issues like
environmental permitting, this is in our view is only a matter of time. The management in this company is highly
experienced, having taken many mines into production in their previous jobs. Sweden and Finland are politically stable and
mining friendly countries, probably this is the best mining region in the world.

Concluding the risked valuation, subtracting existing cash allocated for project development and assuming the Barsele gold
project is sold during 2008 to fund the equity portion of a processing plant, we arrive at NOK 44 per share. A 90%
probability on Stora Sahavaara and Hannukainen will up that value to NOK 53. We expect to do so over the next 6 months.

The risked value thereby allocates a large discount to completion risk and time value of money. We expect to see the share
price reach NOK 50 over the next 12 months.

Assume Barsele and cash pays for required equity, risked valuation 44.1

As will be seen in the valuation table on page 4, the potential valuation of this company exceeds NOK 250 per share. We
arrive at this figure by taking a P/E 8x on 2012E EPS of NOK 28 and adding another NOK 25+ per share in potential from
other exploration activities.

By 2010 these other projects should be quite mature and potentially have a value exceeding Northland’s current valuation.
Northland control a big belt of promising iron ore and IOCG deposits in northern Sweden and Finland, these are the last
significant undeveloped iron ore deposits in Europe. Hannukainen and Stora Sahavaara are the first two to come in
production, but we expect iron ore output to increase by 50%-100% from 2012 to 2015. Northland Resources looks set to
become a 15-20m tonne producer by 2015, approximately half the size of LKAB in Sweden, which is Europe’s only
significant iron ore producer today supplying Europe with approximately 13% of its demand. Europe’s remaining iron ore
demands are mainly met by supplies from Brazil and Australia.

The below table shows the valuation multiples, assuming all equity can be funded through a sale of the Barsele deposit and
further assuming remaining capex funded by debt. We expect around 1bnUSD in plant and related investments (this should
allow for solid price increases). With bankable feasibility studies completed and off-take agreements with leading steel
producers in place, banks will be eager to fund that cash. Both assumptions are in our view highly realistic. Europe today
imports 85% of its iron ore consumption, mainly from Brazil and Australia, and Northland will supply a hungry clientele.

Scenarios

Even applying almost historically low commodity prices we arrive at solid economics. This owes to the copper and gold
credits in Hannukainen. This provides a phenomenal cushion in bad times and superb cash flow in better times. Even a
moderate 6x EBITDA multiple on the medium scenario supports share price in excess of NOK 100 when assuming a trade
sale of Barsele at around USD 75m and the remaining capex funded by debt. This is our view a valid assumption.

2012 Scenarios Exceptionally low Medium Current spot

Iron ore pellets USD/ton 45 67 88


Gold USD/Oz 400 525 650
Copper USD/ton 2 000 3 750 5 500

Revenues 600 930 1 240


EBITDA 100 420 725

News flow next 6 months

We expect further drilling updates from Hannukainen and Barsele this spring, we expect resource upgrades at Barsele and a
43-101 resource statement at Hannukainen over the next 6 months. This should open international investor eyes big time.

Conclusion

Its massive iron ore deposits will generate revenues of around 1200mUSD at current commodity prices. The almost unique
Hannukainen IOCG deposit has hardly been discovered by a broader set of investors.

The share price still has >10-fold potential, we aim for NOK 50 over the next 12 months. Strong Buy

Disclaimers and disclosures


This document provides additional disclosures and disclaimers relevant to research reports and other investment
recommendations (“Recommendations”) issued by Pareto Securities ASA (“Pareto”), cf. the Securities Trading Act Section 2-
10 with further regulations.

Basis and methods for assessment


Recommendation for shares and share related instruments are based on price targets fixed with different valuation
methods that may include analysis of earnings multiples (absolute and relative), valuation of a company using DCF
calculations (discounted cash flow) and by carrying out net asset value (NAV) assessments. Price targets are changed when
earnings and cash flow forecasts are changed. They may also be changed when the underlying value of the issuer’s assets
changes or when factors impacting the required rate of return change.

Pareto credit analysts provide credit ratings which is a framework for comparing the credit quality of rated debt securities.
The ratings are based on the same rating scale as international rating agencies and represent the opinion of Pareto as to
the relative creditworthiness of securities. A credit rating on a stand alone basis should not be used as a basis for
investment operations. Pareto Securities may also provide credit research with more specific price targets. These price
targets are based on different valuation methods. These methods may include analysis of key credit ratios and other factors
describing the securities creditworthiness, peer group analysis of securities with similar creditworthiness and different DCF-
valuations.

Definitions of key terms:


Strong Buy: Pareto expect this financial instruments’ total return to exceed 20% over the next six months.
Buy: Pareto expect this financial instruments’ total return to exceed 10% over the next six months.
Hold: Pareto expect this financial instruments’ total return to be 0-10% over the next six months.
Reduce: Pareto expect this financial instruments’ total return to be negative over the next six months.

Risks related to investments and Recommendations


There is risk attached to all investments in financial instruments. The analyst’s assessment of the risk is identified by the
terms High, Medium or Low Risk in the relevant Recommendation. There may be uncertainties with respect to the
accurateness and reliability of any information, interpretation and assessment. There are uncertainties and risks attached to
the correctness of any Recommendation by Pareto and with respect to forward looking statements and expectations.

Standards and supervision


Pareto complies with the standards for recommendations issued by the Association of Norwegian Stock broking Companies
and the Norwegian Society of Financial Analysts. Pareto is under the supervision of the Financial Supervisory Authority of

present the Recommendation for the issuer prior to dissemination to assure a correct factual basis.

Organisation and duty of confidentiality


All employees of Pareto are subject to duty of confidentiality towards clients and with respect to handling inside
information. Pareto has established “Chinese walls” and other organisational procedures for the purpose of minimizing
conflicts of interest within Pareto and in the Pareto group and between clients.

Compensation schemes for analysts


No part of analysts’ salaries or compensations relates directly to investment banking services or other services provided by
Pareto or related companies to issuers. Analysts are however part of the general bonus scheme.

Updating of Recommendations
Pareto has no fixed schedule for updating.
