          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.

          Homestake has retained Dillon, Read & Co. Inc. ("Dillon Read") to act
as its financial advisor in connection with the Combination and related matters.
Pursuant to an engagement letter dated as of November 21, 1996, between
Homestake and Dillon Read, Homestake has agreed to pay Dillon Read a fee of
0.33% of the equity consideration in the Combination, subject to a maximum fee
of $6,500,000, for services provided in connection with the Combination. Of this
amount, $2,250,000 was paid upon the announcement by Homestake of the execution
of the Agreement; the payment of the balance is contingent upon the consummation
of the merger. Homestake has also agreed to reimburse Dillon Read for the
expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with its engagement (including
reasonable counsel fees) and to indemnify Dillon Read and its officers,
directors, employees, agents and controlling persons against certain expenses,
losses, claims, damages or liabilities in connection with its services,
including those arising under the federal securities laws.

          This information is being furnished by Homestake to Homestake and
Santa Fe shareholders pursuant to Rule 14a-12 under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended, in response to the proposed Newmont exchange offer and
Newmont's proposed solicitation of proxies. This information is not being
furnished by Santa Fe or its Board of Directors.
