Wong................................... Assistant Treasurer and Assistant Secretary, Homestake Mining Company Homestake Mining Company. 650 California Street San Francisco, CA 94108- 2788 On November 17, 1996, Homestake and Santa Fe entered into a confidentiality agreement pursuant to which, among other things, each party agreed to protect the confidential and 33 4 proprietary information and data provided to each other in connection with the evaluation of one or more business transactions. On December 8, 1996, Homestake, Santa Fe and HMGLD Corp, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Homestake, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger pursuant to which the Combination will be consummated. On January 9, 1997, Homestake purchased 100 shares of Santa Fe common stock. In addition, the following individuals named above own the following shares of Santa Fe common stock, all of which has been owned by such individuals for more than 60 days: Mr. Peeler - 10,300 shares; Mr. Elam - 2,000 shares; and Mr. Graber - 1,000 shares. At the effective time (the "Effective Time") of the Combination, five members of the Homestake Board will continue as directors of Homestake. The other eight members of the Homestake Board will voluntarily resign as directors of Homestake. The Agreement provides that at the Effective Time, Mr. Thompson will become Homestake's Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. A total of ten Homestake management personnel, including Messrs. Thompson, Elam, Kirk, Leathley and Lindqvist, have severance agreements with Homestake under which they are entitled to receive benefits in the event of a change of control followed by certain events. The Combination is a change of control for purposes of these severance agreements. Under the severance agreements, entitlement to benefits arises if, within three years following the consummation of the Combination, such person's employment is terminated or such person elects to terminate his employment following (i) a reduction in salary or certain benefits, (ii) a change in location of employment, (iii) a change in position, duties, responsibilities or status inconsistent with such person's prior position, or (iv) a reduction in responsibilities, title or office as in effect just before the consummation of the Combination. Benefits consist of (i) a lump sum payment equal to two times such person's highest annual salary and bonus (including deferred compensation) during the three years prior to termination, (ii) continuation of participation in insurance and certain other fringe benefits for two years, (iii) continued vesting of stock options, and (iv) relocation assistance. Such benefits are in lieu of severance benefits otherwise payable under Homestake's general severance policy. The same ten management personnel are also participants in Homestake's Executive Supplemental Retirement Plan (the "Homestake ESRP"). The Homestake ESRP provides that participating employees accrue retirement benefits at the rate of 4 1/3% times years of service up to a maximum of 15 years. Service credit is then multiplied by average monthly compensation during the 36 consecutive months of highest compensation (salary and bonus) to determine a monthly retirement benefit. Benefits are payable on 34 5 retirement at age 62 after 10 continuous years of service, with provision for early retirement between ages 55 and 62. Within two years following the Combination, if any participant's employment is terminated by Homestake or by the participant for any reason, such participant will fully vest in the maximum benefits payable under the Homestake ESRP to the extent such participant is not already fully vested, and will be entitled to commence receiving such benefits at age 55. Benefits payable under the Homestake ESRP are reduced to the extent of retirement benefits otherwise payable under any other Homestake retirement plan (except the Homestake Mining Company Savings Plan). Homestake has a deferred compensation plan under which 23 eligible employees and the directors are entitled to defer receipt of compensation. Deferred compensation earns interest at rates determined under the plan, with a higher rate equal to 120% of the regular rate (the "Preferred Rate") for persons who have been participants for more than five years. Under the deferred compensation plan, following the Combination, all deferred compensation will earn interest at the Preferred Rate. 35 6 OTHER REPRESENTATIVES OF HOMESTAKE WHO MAY COMMUNICATE WITH HOMESTAKE AND SANTA FE SHAREHOLDERS PRESENT PRINCIPAL NAME AND BUSINESS ADDRESS OCCUPATION OR EMPLOYMENT - ------------------------- ------------------------ Robert A.
