CUSIP No. 655555100                                                                                                                  

Reporting Person has paid for the securities in cash, or advanced loans to the Issuer, out of his personal funds.

 

ITEM 4.          PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

The Reporting Person is a director of the Issuer. He was one of the named plaintiffs in a shareholders' derivative case filed against the Issuer and some of its directors and officers in April, 2000. The action alleged breach of fiduciary duties, fraud, deceit, and unfair trade practices. A settlement was subsequently negotiated and approved by the United States District Court in September 2000. The Reporting Person has continued to be involved in the Issuer's turn-around efforts, and in October 2003 became a director of the Issuer.

The board of directors of the Issuer may from time to time award stock options and/or other forms of stock-based compensation or incentives to the Reporting Person in his capacity as a director of the Issuer.

As indicated in the Issuer's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2004, the Issuer is seeking financing to facilitate the reactivation of the Issuer's Johnson Camp Mine, a copper mine and production facility currently on care and maintenance status in Arizona. If the Issuer proceeds with a financing by way of an offering of equity securities - the availability of which cannot be assured - it may be forced to effect a reverse split (consolidation) of its

CUSIP No. 655555100                                                                                                                  

issued and outstanding shares of common stock, and/or an increase in its authorized share capital. The Issuer's management also plans to nominate three persons for election as independent directors at its next annual meeting of shareholders.

Other than as set forth above, the Reporting Person does not have any current plans or proposals which would relate to or would result in:

    1. the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer (except by way of exercise of the Options, conversion of the Debenture, or the exercise of any Warrants that may be issued upon conversion of the Debenture), or the disposition of securities of the Issuer;
    2. any extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries;
    3. a sale or transfer of a material amount of the assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries;
    4. any change in the present board of directors or management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board;
    5. any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer;
    6. any other material change in the Issuer's business or corporate structure;
    7. changes in the Issuer's charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person;
    8. the delisting of the Issuer's shares from the TSX Venture Exchange;
    9. the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer, or the disposition of securities of the Issuer; or
    10. any action similar to any of those enumerated above.
