WE ARE NOT OFFERING SECURITIES OR PROVIDING INVESTMENT ADVICE

Nothing on this website constitutes investment advice, including our public filings with Canadian and other securities regulatory authorities.

We do not generate the information regarding Lithium Americas Corp. stock price quotes or historical stock price data for our website and the quotes are delayed. You should not rely on the stock price quotes or historical stock price data for investment purposes.  If you are contemplating trading in the securities of Lithium Americas, we strongly advise you to seek independent professional advice before making any investment decision.  Lithium Americas makes no representation or warranty regarding the adequacy, accuracy, timeliness or completeness of any such stock price quotes or historical stock price data and has not taken any steps to verify the adequacy, accuracy, timeliness or completeness of the information provided herein.

NON-IFRS AND NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Some of the measures provided on this website from time to time, such as EBITDA, NPV and IRR, are not recognized measures under international financial reporting standards (“IFRS”) and therefore may not be comparable to those presented by other issuers. Non-IFRS measures should not be construed as a substitute for IFRS measures and should be read in conjunction with measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Management has included non-IFRS measures on this website as potentially useful information for third-parties who are evaluating the Company’s results and performance, which is the purpose for which management uses such non-IFRS measures. The Company believes these measures and ratios provide investors with an improved ability to evaluate the Company's prospects, and in particular the Thacker Pass Project. As the Thacker Pass Project is not in production, the prospective non-GAAP financial measures or ratios presented may not be reconciled to the nearest comparable measure under IFRS and the equivalent historical non-GAAP financial measure for the prospective non-GAAP financial measures or ratios discussed herein is nil$.

All statements, other than statements of historical fact, may be forward-looking information. The forward-looking information provided herein relates to the business, financial performance and condition of Lithium Americas, including, but not limited to, development of the Thacker Pass project, including timing, progress, construction, anticipated permitting, milestones, anticipated production, and results thereof; capital and mine production costs; estimates of the quality and quantity of the mineral resources and mineral reserves at its mineral properties; the realization of mineral resources and reserves estimates; underlying assumptions related thereto; the timing for completion of new technical reports and for exploration and development work on its mineral properties; successful operation of projects; the timing and amount of future production; capital costs, operating costs, sustaining capital requirements, after tax net present value and internal rate of return, payback period, sensitivity analyses, net cash flows and EBITDA of any Company project; currency exchange and interest rates; expected outcomes and timing of environmental surveys and permit applications and other environmental matters; its ability to produce high quality battery grade lithium products; expected product mix; the Company’s ability to fully fund or remain fully funded for its projects,  or to secure new strategic partners; treatment under governmental and taxation regimes; the development of the lithium mining industry in Nevada; the price of lithium and lithium-based commodities; the demand for lithium-based products; and general market and economic conditions.

TECHNICAL DISCLOSURE STATEMENT

Readers are advised that National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects of the Canadian Securities Administrators (“NI 43-101”) governs the disclosure of scientific or technical information made by an issuer concerning a mineral project on a property material to the issuer.  All technical information about our mineral properties contained on this website is subject to the more detailed information (including the qualifications, assumptions and notes set forth therein) filed by the Company with securities regulators and available at www.sedarplus.ca.

QUALIFIED PERSONS

Unless otherwise stated on this website, in the Company’s current technical reports or other relevant, publicly available disclosure documents, all technical and scientific information contained on this website regarding Lithium Americas’ Thacker Pass projects has been reviewed and approved by Rene LeBlanc, the Chief Technical Officer for the Company who is a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101.

NOTE TO SHAREHOLDERS IN THE UNITED STATES

The news releases or published documents on this website may also contain information about adjacent properties on which we have no right to explore or mine. We advise U.S. investors that the SEC’s mining guidelines strictly prohibit information of this type in documents filed with the SEC. United States investors are cautioned that mineral deposits on adjacent properties are not indicative of mineral deposits on Lithium Americas’ properties.

Any information concerning mineral reserve or mineral resource estimates contained on this website or the documents available on this website have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the securities laws in effect in Canada including NI 43-101. These standards differ significantly from the requirements of the SEC that are applicable to domestic United States reporting companies. Any estimates of Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources reported by the Company pursuant to NI 43-101 may not qualify as such under SEC standards. Accordingly, information on this website or documents provided on the website may not be comparable with information made public by United States companies subject to domestic SEC reporting and disclosure requirements.

Our financial information available on or accessible through this website is prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. Financial statements are also subject to Canadian auditing and auditor independence standards. IFRS differs in some respects from United States generally accepted accounting principles and thus may not be comparable to financial statements of United States companies.

DISCLOSURE OF MINERAL RESERVES AND MINERAL RESOURCES

Readers are advised that NI 43-101 of the Canadian Securities Administrators requires that each category of mineral reserves and mineral resources be reported separately. Readers may refer to the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy website for Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves.
