Forward Looking Statements

This Form 8-K and other reports we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (collectively the “Filings”) contain or may contain forward looking statements and information that are based upon beliefs of, and information currently available to, our management as well as estimates and assumptions made by our management. When used in the filings the words “anticipate”, “believe”, “estimate”, “expect”, “future”, “intend”, “plan” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions as they relate to us or our management identify forward looking statements. Such statements reflect our current view with respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors (including the risks contained in the Filings) relating to our industry and our operations and results of operations.

The following factors, among others, could cause or contribute to such material differences: the ability to obtain the approval of the transaction by Capital Gold Corporation stockholders; the ability to realize the expected synergies resulting from the transaction in the amounts or in the timeframe anticipated; the ability to integrate Capital Gold Corporation’s businesses into those of Gammon Gold Inc. in a timely and cost-efficient manner; and the ability to obtain governmental approvals of the transaction or to satisfy other conditions to the transaction on the proposed terms and timeframe. Additional factors that could cause Gammon Gold Inc. and Capital Gold Corporation’s results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements can be found in the 2009 Annual Report on Form 40-F, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Annual Report on Form 40-F/A, for Gammon Gold Inc. and the 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K of Capital Gold Corporation filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Annual Report on Form 10-K/A and the first quarter fiscal 2011 Quarterly Report of Capital Gold Corporation on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and available at the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Internet site (http://www.sec.gov).

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements and, except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

CAPITAL GOLD COPROPORATION (THE “COMPANY”) AND GAMMON GOLD INC. (“GAMMON”) CLAIM THE PROTECTION OF THE SAFE HARBOR FOR “FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS” WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995.
 
CAPITAL GOLD INTENDS TO HOLD PRESENTATIONS FOR CERTAIN OF ITS SECURITYHOLDERS, AS WELL AS OTHER PERSONS WHO MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN PURCHASING CAPITAL GOLD’S SECURITIES, REGARDING ITS PROPOSED BUSINESS COMBINATION, AS DESCRIBED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FILED ON FORM F-4 WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, AS AMENDED.
 
THE INFORMATION ON EITHER CAPITAL GOLD OR GAMMON’S WEBSITE IS NOT, AND SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO BE, A PART OF THIS CURRENT REPORT OR INCORPORATED IN FILINGS CAPITAL GOLD OR GAMMON MAKE WITH THE SEC.

THIS COMMUNICATION SHALL NOT CONSTITUTE AN OFFER TO SELL OR THE SOLICITATION OF AN OFFER TO BUY ANY SECURITIES, NOR SHALL THERE BE ANY SALE OF SECURITIES IN ANY JURISDICTIONS IN WHICH SUCH OFFER, SOLICITATION OR SALE WOULD BE UNLAWFUL PRIOR TO REGISTRATION OR QUALIFICATION UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY SUCH JURISDICTION.  NO OFFERING OF SECURITIES SHALL BE MADE EXCEPT BY MEANS OF A PROSPECTUS MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF SECTION 10 OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.
