All monetary amounts in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated
Total cash costs shown net of by-product sales unless otherwise stated
CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain information contained in this presentation, including any information relating to New Gold’s future financial or operating performance are “forward looking”. All statements in this presentation,
other than statements of historical fact, which address events or developments that New Gold expects to occur are “forward-looking statements”. Forward-looking statements are statements that are
not historical facts and are generally, but not always, identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “plans”, “expects”, “is expected”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “targeted”, “estimates”,
“forecasts”, “intends”, “anticipates”, “projects”, “potential”, “believes” or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “should”,
“might” or “will be taken”, “occur” or “be achieved” or the negative connotation of such terms. Forward-looking statements in this presentation include, among others, statements with respect to:
guidance for production, total cash costs and all-in sustaining costs; the results of the Rainy River Feasibility Study, including the expected production and costs; production potential and costs at
New Gold’s other projects planned activities for 2014 and beyond at the company’s projects; the timing of permitting activities and environmental assessment processes; targeted throughput and
recovery increase at New Afton; and targeted timing for completion of the New Afton mill expansion.
All forward-looking statements in this presentation are based on the opinions and estimates of management as of the date such statements are made and are subject to important risk factors and
uncertainties, many of which are beyond New Gold’s ability to control or predict. Certain material assumptions regarding our forward-looking statements are discussed in this presentation, New
Gold’s MD&As, its Annual Information Form and its Technical Reports filed at www.sedar.com. In addition to, and subject to, such assumptions discussed in more detail elsewhere, the forward-
looking statements in this presentation are also subject to the following assumptions: (1) there being no signification disruptions affecting New Gold’s operations; (2) political and legal developments
in jurisdictions where New Gold operates, or may in the future operate, being consistent with New Gold’s current expectations; (3) the accuracy of New Gold’s current mineral reserve and resource
estimates; (4) the exchange rate between the Canadian dollar, Australian dollar, Mexican peso and U.S. dollar being approximately consistent with current levels; (5) prices for diesel, natural gas,
fuel oil, electricity and other key supplies being approximately consistent with current levels; (6) labour and material costs increasing on a basis consistent with New Gold’s current expectations; (7)
permitting and arrangements with First Nations and other Aboriginal groups in respect of Rainy River and Blackwater being consistent with New Gold’s current expectations; (8) all environmental
approvals (including the environmental assessment process for the Blackwater and Rainy River projects), required permits, licenses and authorizations being obtained from the relevant
governments and other relevant stakeholders within the expected timelines; and (9) the results of the feasibility studies for the Rainy River and Blackwater projects being realized.
Forward-looking statements are necessarily based on estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual
results, level of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, without limitation:
significant capital requirements and the availability and management of capital resources; price volatility in the spot and forward markets for commodities; fluctuations in the international currency
markets and in the rates of exchange of the currencies of Canada, the United States, Australia, Mexico and Chile; discrepancies between actual and estimated production, between actual and
estimated reserves and resources and between actual and estimated metallurgical recoveries; changes in national and local government legislation in Canada, the United States, Australia, Mexico
and Chile or any other country in which New Gold currently or may in the future carry on business; taxation; controls, regulations and political or economic developments in the countries in which
New Gold does or may carry on business; the speculative nature of mineral exploration and development, including the risks of obtaining and maintaining the validity and enforceability of the
necessary licenses and permits and complying with the permitting requirements of each jurisdiction in which New Gold operates, including, but not limited to: in Canada, obtaining the necessary
permits for the Blackwater and Rainy River projects; in Mexico, where Cerro San Pedro has a history of ongoing legal challenges related to our environmental authorization (EIS); and in Chile,
where certain activities at El Morro have been delayed due to litigation relating to its environmental permit; the lack of certainty with respect to foreign legal systems, which may not be immune from
the influence of political pressure, corruption or other factors that are inconsistent with the rule of law; the uncertainties inherent to current and future legal challenges New Gold is or may become a
party to; diminishing quantities or grades of reserves and resources; competition; loss of key employees; additional funding requirements; rising costs of labour, supplies, fuel and equipment; actual
results of current exploration or reclamation activities; uncertainties inherent to mining economic studies including the feasibility studies for Rainy River and Blackwater; the uncertainty with respect
to prevailing market conditions necessary for a positive development or construction decision at each of Blackwater and Rainy River; changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined;
accidents; labour disputes; defective title to mineral claims or property or contests over claims to mineral properties; unexpected delays and costs inherent to consulting and accommodating rights of
First Nations and other Aboriginal groups; uncertainties with respect to obtaining all necessary surface and other land use rights or tenure for Rainy River; risks, uncertainties and unanticipated
delays associated with obtaining and maintaining necessary licenses, permits and authorizations and complying with permitting requirements, including those associated with the environmental
assessment processes for Blackwater and Rainy River. In addition, there are risks and hazards associated with the business of mineral exploration, development and mining, including
environmental events and hazards, industrial accidents, unusual or unexpected formations, pressures, cave-ins, flooding and gold bullion losses (and the risk of inadequate insurance or inability to
obtain insurance to cover these risks) as well as “Risk Factors” included in New Gold’s disclosure documents filed on and available at www.sedar.com.
Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, and actual results and future events could materially differ from those anticipated in such statements. All of the forward-
looking statements contained in this presentation are qualified by these cautionary statements. New Gold expressly disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking
statements whether as a result of new information, events or otherwise, except in accordance with applicable securities laws.
The footnotes and endnotes to this presentation contain important information. The endnotes are found at the end of the presentation.

New Gold has a track record of successful mine development
Mine development – Creating options
Once mines are in production – multiple options to further enhance value
Cerro San Pedro (April 2007) – ~35,000 tonne per day open pit/heap leach
Mesquite (January 2008) – ~40,000 tonne per day open pit/heap leach
New Afton (June 2012) – 11,000 tonne per day block cave/process facility
Mine life extension (Mesquite(1), Peak Mines(2), New Afton C-zone)
Increased production rate (Cerro San Pedro(3), New Afton)
1. Mesquite’s mine life has been extended beyond the 9.5 years that were estimated when the mine re-started production in January 2008.
2. The Peak Mines originally began production in 1992 with an approximate eight year life and have operated continuously since then and continue to have six or more years of mine life.
3. During 2011 and 2012, Cerro San Pedro operated at a rate above its design capacity to increase its annual gold and silver production.

New Gold reports its Measured and Indicated mineral resources inclusive of its mineral reserves. Measured and Indicated mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have
demonstrated economic viability. Inferred mineral resources have a greater amount of uncertainty as to their existence and economic and legal feasibility, do not have demonstrated economic
viability, and are exclusive of mineral reserves. Mineral reserves have been estimated in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (“CIM”) definition
standards and National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”).

2) Mineral Resources for the company’s mineral properties have been estimated based on the following metal prices and lower cut-off criteria:
3) Mineral resources are classified as Measured, Indicated and Inferred resources and are reported based on technical and economic parameters consistent with the methods most suitable
for their potential commercial exploitation. Where different mining and/or processing methods might be applied to different portions of a mineral resource, the designators ‘open pit’ and
‘underground’ have been applied to indicate envisioned mining method. Likewise the designators ‘oxide’, ‘non-oxide’ and ‘sulphide’ have been applied to indicate the type of mineralization
as it relates to appropriate mineral processing method and expected payable metal recoveries. Additional details regarding mineral resource estimation, classification, reporting parameters,
key assumptions and associated risks for each of New Gold’s mineral properties, other than Rainy River, are provided in the respective NI 43-101 Technical Reports which are available at
www.sedar.com. Refer to the supplementary information below regarding the mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates for Rainy River.

Rainy River Mineral Reserves:
1. Open pit mineral reserves have been estimated using an optimized pit shell based on metal prices of $800 per ounce gold and $25 per ounce silver, a foreign exchange rate of C$1.05 to
US$1.00, gold recovery of 89.9% (non-CAP Zone) and 74.3% (CAP Zone) and a silver recovery of 67.1% (non-CAP Zone) and 69.5% (CAP Zone). The cut-off grade is based on a gold
price of $1,200. Underground reserves have been estimated from mining shapes generated using a cut-off grade of 3.5 g/t gold-equivalent. Development material from stope access drives
above a cut-off grade of 1.5 g/t gold-equivalent is also assumed to be sent to the mill for processing. Underground breakeven cut-off grade is calculated at 2.75 g/t gold-equivalent based on
metal prices of $1,300 per ounce gold and $22 per ounce silver, a foreign exchange rate of CAD $1.05 to USD $1.00, gold recovery of 95% and a silver recovery of 75%.
2. Open pit reserves have been estimated using a dilution of 4% at 0.21 g/t Au and 1.19 g/t Ag, and underground reserves have been estimated using an overall dilution of 8.3%, inclusive of
both rock and backfill dilution. Open pit and underground reserves have been estimated using a mining recovery of 95% and 96.5%, respectively.
3. Open pit direct processing material is defined as mineralization likely to be mined and processed directly and above a variable cut-off grade ranging from 0.3-0.7 Au g/t.
4. Stockpile material includes all material within designed open pit between variable cut-offs described above in Note 3, as well as material within the CAP Zone (code 500) that is suitable for
stockpiling and future processing.
5. Mineral Reserves for the open pit are derived from the resource model effective November 2, 2013. Models for the underground reserves were derived from the August 2013 and
September 2013 models for the main ODM zone and Intrepid Zone, respectively. Models were prepared by Dorota El-Rassi, P.Eng. (APEO #100012348) and Glen Cole, P.Geo. (APGO
#1416), of SRK, both independent “Qualified Persons" as that term is defined in National Instrument 43-101. Rainy River’s exploration program in Richardson Township is being supervised
by Mark A. Petersen, (AIPG Certified Professional Geologist #10563), Vice President, Exploration for New Gold and a “Qualified Person” as defined in National Instrument 43-101. New Gold
continues to implement a rigorous QA/QC program to ensure best practices in drill core sampling, analysis and data management.
6. Qualified persons - The open pit portion of the mineral reserve statement was prepared under the supervision of Patrice Live (OIQ #38991) of BBA, and the underground portion of the
mineral reserve statement was prepared by Colm Keogh, P.Eng. (APEGBC #37433) of AMC Mining Consultants (Canada) Ltd., both independent “Qualified Persons" as that term is defined
in National Instrument 43-101.
7. The mineral reserve estimate may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, sociopolitical, marketing, and other relevant issues.
Rainy River Mineral Resources:
1. Mineral resources are reported in relation to conceptual pit shells and are inclusive of the Intrepid zone. Vertical limit of -150m msl.
2. Open pit mineral resources are reported at a cut-off grade of 0.30 gpt gold, underground mineral resources are reported at a cut-off grade of 2.5 gpt gold based on a gold price of $1,400
per ounce, a silver price of $24.00 per ounce, a foreign exchange rate of C$1.10 to US$1.00, gold recovery of 88% for open pit resources and 90% for underground resources with silver
recovery at 75%.
3. Direct processing material is defined as mineralization above a cut-off of 0.45 g/t gold and likely to be mined and processed directly.
4. Stockpile material includes all material within conceptual pit shells in the gold grade range 0.30 – 0.45 gpt as well as all material within the CAP zone that is suitable for stockpiling and
future processing based on average metallurgical recoveries of 88% gold and 75% silver.
5. Qualified Persons – The mineral resource statement was prepared by Dorota El-Rassi, P. Eng. (APEO #100012348) and Glen Cole (APGO #1416) from SRK, both independent "Qualified
Persons" as that term is defined in National Instrument 43-101.
6. Mineral resources are inclusive of mineral reserves. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.

CAUTIONARY NOTE TO U.S. READERS CONCERNING ESTIMATES OF MINERAL RESERVES AND MINERAL RESOURCES
Information concerning the properties and operations of New Gold has been prepared in accordance with Canadian standards under applicable Canadian securities laws, and may not be
comparable to similar information for United States companies. The terms “Mineral Resource”, “Measured Mineral Resource”, “Indicated Mineral Resource” and “Inferred Mineral Resource”
used in this Report are Canadian mining terms as defined in the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (“CIM”) Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral
Reserves adopted by CIM Council on November 27, 2010 and incorporated by reference in National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”). While the terms “Mineral Resource”, “Measured Mineral
Resource”, “Indicated Mineral Resource” and “Inferred Mineral Resource” are recognized and required by Canadian securities regulations, they are not defined terms under standards of the
United States Securities and Exchange Commission. As such, certain information contained in this Report concerning descriptions of mineralization and resources under Canadian standards
is not comparable to similar information made public by United States companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission.
An “Inferred Mineral Resource” has a great amount of uncertainty as to its existence and as to its economic and legal feasibility. Under Canadian rules, estimates of Inferred Mineral
Resources may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an “Inferred Mineral Resource” will ever be upgraded to a higher
confidence category. Readers are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an “Inferred Mineral Resource” exists or is economically or legally mineable.
Under United States standards, mineralization may not be classified as a “Reserve” unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally
produced or extracted at the time the Reserve estimation is made. Readers are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of the Measured or Indicated Mineral Resources that are not
Mineral Reserves will ever be converted into Mineral Reserves. In addition, the definitions of “Proven Mineral Reserves” and “Probable Mineral Reserves” under CIM standards differ in certain
respects from the standards of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
The scientific and technical information in this presentation has been reviewed and approved by Mark A. Petersen, Vice President, Exploration of New Gold. Mr. Petersen is an AIPG Certified
Professional Geologist and a “qualified person” under National Instrument 43-101. For additional information with respect to our Mineral Resource and Reserve estimates and the Feasibility
Studies discussed herein, refer to our news release dated February 6, 2014, the Rainy River Technical Report, the Blackwater Technical Report and our other technical reports available at

NON-GAAP MEASURES
(1) ALL-IN SUSTAINING COSTS
Consistent with guidance announced in 2013 by the World Gold Council, an association of various gold mining companies from around the world of which New Gold is a member, New Gold
defines “all-in sustaining costs” per ounce as the sum of total cash costs, capital expenditures that are sustaining in nature, corporate general and administrative costs, capitalized and
expensed exploration that is sustaining in nature and environmental reclamation costs, all divided by the ounces of gold sold to arrive at a per ounce figure. New Gold believes this non-GAAP
financial measure provides further transparency into costs associated with producing gold and will assist analysts, investors and other stakeholders of the company in assessing the company’s
operating performance, its ability to generate free cash flow from current operations and its overall value. This data is furnished to provide additional information and is a non-GAAP financial
measure. All-in sustaining costs presented do not have a standardized meaning under GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other mining companies. It should
not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP and is not necessarily indicative of cash flow from operations under GAAP or
operating costs presented under GAAP. Further details regarding all-in sustaining costs and a reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measures are provided in our MD&As accompanying our
financial statements filed from time to time on www.sedar.com.
(2) TOTAL CASH COSTS
“Total cash costs” per ounce figures are non-GAAP measures which are calculated in accordance with a standard developed by The Gold Institute, a worldwide association of suppliers of gold
and gold products that ceased operations in 2002. Adoption of the standard is voluntary and the cost measures presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other
companies. New Gold reports total cash costs on a sales basis. The company believes that certain investors use this information to evaluate the company’s ability to generate liquidity through
operating cash flow and that this measure, along with sales, is considered to be a key indicator of the company’s ability to generate operating earnings and cash flow from its mining
operations. Total cash costs include mine site operating costs such as mining, processing and administration costs, royalties, production taxes, and realized gains and losses on fuel contracts,
but are exclusive of amortization, reclamation, capital and exploration costs and net of by-product sales. Total cash costs are then divided by ounces of gold sold to arrive at a per ounce
figure. Co-product cash costs remove the impact of other metal sales that are produced as a by-product of gold production and apportion the cash costs to each metal produced on a
percentage of revenue basis, and subsequently divides the amount by the total ounces of gold or silver or pounds of copper sold, as the case may be, to arrive at per ounce or per pound
figures. Unless otherwise indicated, all total cash cost information in this presentation is net of by-product sales. These measures, along with sales, are considered to be a key indicator of a
company’s ability to generate operating earnings and cash flow from its mining operations. This data is furnished to provide additional information and is a non-GAAP financial measure. Total
cash costs and co-product cash costs presented do not have a standardized meaning under GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other mining companies. It
should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP and is not necessarily indicative of cash flow from operations under
GAAP or operating costs presented under GAAP. Further details regarding total cash costs and a reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measures are provided in our MD&As accompanying our
financial statements filed from time to time on www.sedar.com.
(3) ADJUSTED NET EARNINGS
“Adjusted net earnings” and “adjusted net earnings per share” are non-GAAP financial measures. Net earnings have been adjusted and tax affected for the group of costs in “Other gains and
losses” on the condensed consolidated income statement. The adjusted entries are also impacted for tax to the extent that the underlying entries are impacted for tax in the unadjusted net
earnings from continuing operations. The company uses this measure for its own internal purposes. Management’s internal budgets and forecasts and public guidance do not reflect fair value
changes on senior notes and non-hedged derivatives, foreign currency translation and fair value through profit or loss and financial asset gains/losses. Consequently, the presentation of
adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share enables investors and analysts to better understand the underlying operating performance of our core mining business through the
eyes of management. Management periodically evaluates the components of adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share based on an internal assessment of performance
measures that are useful for evaluating the operating performance of our business and a review of the non-GAAP measures used by mining industry analysts and other mining companies.
Adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standardized definition under IFRS and may not be
comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. They should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.
The measures are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flows from operations as determined under IFRS.

(4) OPERATING MARGIN
“Operating margin” is a non-GAAP financial measure with no standard meaning under GAAP, which management uses to further evaluate the company’s results of operations in each
reporting period. Operating margin is calculated as revenue less operating expenses and therefore does not include depreciation and depletion. Operating margin is intended to provide
additional information only and does not have any standardized definition under IFRS; it should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in
accordance with IFRS. Other companies may calculate this measure differently and this measure is unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.
(5) ADJUSTED NET CASH GENERATED FROM OPERATIONS BEFORE CHANGES IN NON-CASH OPERATING WORKING CAPITAL
“Adjusted net cash generated from operations before changes in non-cash operating working capital” is a non-GAAP financial measure. Net cash generated from operations has been adjusted
for one-time charges incurred in the second quarter of 2013 related to the settlement of the company’s legacy gold hedge position and in the third quarter of 2013 related to the company’s
acquisition of the Rainy River project. There is also an adjustment to remove the impact of the change in non-cash operating working capital. The company believes the presentation of
adjusted net cash generated from operations before changes in non-cash operating working capital enables investors and analysts to better understand the underlying operating performance
of our core mining business. Adjusted net cash generated from operations before changes in non-cash operating working capital is intended to provide additional information only and does not
have any standardized meaning under IFRS. It should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.

  • 2. Cautionary statements 2 All monetary amounts in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated Total cash costs shown net of by-product sales unless otherwise stated CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS Certain information contained in this presentation, including any information relating to New Gold’s future financial or operating performance are “forward looking”. All statements in this presentation, other than statements of historical fact, which address events or developments that New Gold expects to occur are “forward-looking statements”. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts and are generally, but not always, identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “plans”, “expects”, “is expected”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “targeted”, “estimates”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “anticipates”, “projects”, “potential”, “believes” or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “should”, “might” or “will be taken”, “occur” or “be achieved” or the negative connotation of such terms. Forward-looking statements in this presentation include, among others, statements with respect to: guidance for production, total cash costs and all-in sustaining costs; the results of the Rainy River Feasibility Study, including the expected production and costs; production potential and costs at New Gold’s other projects planned activities for 2014 and beyond at the company’s projects; the timing of permitting activities and environmental assessment processes; targeted throughput and recovery increase at New Afton; and targeted timing for completion of the New Afton mill expansion. All forward-looking statements in this presentation are based on the opinions and estimates of management as of the date such statements are made and are subject to important risk factors and uncertainties, many of which are beyond New Gold’s ability to control or predict. Certain material assumptions regarding our forward-looking statements are discussed in this presentation, New Gold’s MD&As, its Annual Information Form and its Technical Reports filed at www.sedar.com. In addition to, and subject to, such assumptions discussed in more detail elsewhere, the forward- looking statements in this presentation are also subject to the following assumptions: (1) there being no signification disruptions affecting New Gold’s operations; (2) political and legal developments in jurisdictions where New Gold operates, or may in the future operate, being consistent with New Gold’s current expectations; (3) the accuracy of New Gold’s current mineral reserve and resource estimates; (4) the exchange rate between the Canadian dollar, Australian dollar, Mexican peso and U.S. dollar being approximately consistent with current levels; (5) prices for diesel, natural gas, fuel oil, electricity and other key supplies being approximately consistent with current levels; (6) labour and material costs increasing on a basis consistent with New Gold’s current expectations; (7) permitting and arrangements with First Nations and other Aboriginal groups in respect of Rainy River and Blackwater being consistent with New Gold’s current expectations; (8) all environmental approvals (including the environmental assessment process for the Blackwater and Rainy River projects), required permits, licenses and authorizations being obtained from the relevant governments and other relevant stakeholders within the expected timelines; and (9) the results of the feasibility studies for the Rainy River and Blackwater projects being realized. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based on estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, without limitation: significant capital requirements and the availability and management of capital resources; price volatility in the spot and forward markets for commodities; fluctuations in the international currency markets and in the rates of exchange of the currencies of Canada, the United States, Australia, Mexico and Chile; discrepancies between actual and estimated production, between actual and estimated reserves and resources and between actual and estimated metallurgical recoveries; changes in national and local government legislation in Canada, the United States, Australia, Mexico and Chile or any other country in which New Gold currently or may in the future carry on business; taxation; controls, regulations and political or economic developments in the countries in which New Gold does or may carry on business; the speculative nature of mineral exploration and development, including the risks of obtaining and maintaining the validity and enforceability of the necessary licenses and permits and complying with the permitting requirements of each jurisdiction in which New Gold operates, including, but not limited to: in Canada, obtaining the necessary permits for the Blackwater and Rainy River projects; in Mexico, where Cerro San Pedro has a history of ongoing legal challenges related to our environmental authorization (EIS); and in Chile, where certain activities at El Morro have been delayed due to litigation relating to its environmental permit; the lack of certainty with respect to foreign legal systems, which may not be immune from the influence of political pressure, corruption or other factors that are inconsistent with the rule of law; the uncertainties inherent to current and future legal challenges New Gold is or may become a party to; diminishing quantities or grades of reserves and resources; competition; loss of key employees; additional funding requirements; rising costs of labour, supplies, fuel and equipment; actual results of current exploration or reclamation activities; uncertainties inherent to mining economic studies including the feasibility studies for Rainy River and Blackwater; the uncertainty with respect to prevailing market conditions necessary for a positive development or construction decision at each of Blackwater and Rainy River; changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined; accidents; labour disputes; defective title to mineral claims or property or contests over claims to mineral properties; unexpected delays and costs inherent to consulting and accommodating rights of First Nations and other Aboriginal groups; uncertainties with respect to obtaining all necessary surface and other land use rights or tenure for Rainy River; risks, uncertainties and unanticipated delays associated with obtaining and maintaining necessary licenses, permits and authorizations and complying with permitting requirements, including those associated with the environmental assessment processes for Blackwater and Rainy River. In addition, there are risks and hazards associated with the business of mineral exploration, development and mining, including environmental events and hazards, industrial accidents, unusual or unexpected formations, pressures, cave-ins, flooding and gold bullion losses (and the risk of inadequate insurance or inability to obtain insurance to cover these risks) as well as “Risk Factors” included in New Gold’s disclosure documents filed on and available at www.sedar.com. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, and actual results and future events could materially differ from those anticipated in such statements. All of the forward- looking statements contained in this presentation are qualified by these cautionary statements. New Gold expressly disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, events or otherwise, except in accordance with applicable securities laws. The footnotes and endnotes to this presentation contain important information. The endnotes are found at the end of the presentation.

  • 62. 62 Rainy River Mineral Reserves: 1. Open pit mineral reserves have been estimated using an optimized pit shell based on metal prices of $800 per ounce gold and $25 per ounce silver, a foreign exchange rate of C$1.05 to US$1.00, gold recovery of 89.9% (non-CAP Zone) and 74.3% (CAP Zone) and a silver recovery of 67.1% (non-CAP Zone) and 69.5% (CAP Zone). The cut-off grade is based on a gold price of $1,200. Underground reserves have been estimated from mining shapes generated using a cut-off grade of 3.5 g/t gold-equivalent. Development material from stope access drives above a cut-off grade of 1.5 g/t gold-equivalent is also assumed to be sent to the mill for processing. Underground breakeven cut-off grade is calculated at 2.75 g/t gold-equivalent based on metal prices of $1,300 per ounce gold and $22 per ounce silver, a foreign exchange rate of CAD $1.05 to USD $1.00, gold recovery of 95% and a silver recovery of 75%. 2. Open pit reserves have been estimated using a dilution of 4% at 0.21 g/t Au and 1.19 g/t Ag, and underground reserves have been estimated using an overall dilution of 8.3%, inclusive of both rock and backfill dilution. Open pit and underground reserves have been estimated using a mining recovery of 95% and 96.5%, respectively. 3. Open pit direct processing material is defined as mineralization likely to be mined and processed directly and above a variable cut-off grade ranging from 0.3-0.7 Au g/t. 4. Stockpile material includes all material within designed open pit between variable cut-offs described above in Note 3, as well as material within the CAP Zone (code 500) that is suitable for stockpiling and future processing. 5.

Endnotes 64 CAUTIONARY NOTE TO U.S. READERS CONCERNING ESTIMATES OF MINERAL RESERVES AND MINERAL RESOURCES Information concerning the properties and operations of New Gold has been prepared in accordance with Canadian standards under applicable Canadian securities laws, and may not be comparable to similar information for United States companies. The terms “Mineral Resource”, “Measured Mineral Resource”, “Indicated Mineral Resource” and “Inferred Mineral Resource” used in this Report are Canadian mining terms as defined in the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (“CIM”) Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves adopted by CIM Council on November 27, 2010 and incorporated by reference in National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”). While the terms “Mineral Resource”, “Measured Mineral Resource”, “Indicated Mineral Resource” and “Inferred Mineral Resource” are recognized and required by Canadian securities regulations, they are not defined terms under standards of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. As such, certain information contained in this Report concerning descriptions of mineralization and resources under Canadian standards is not comparable to similar information made public by United States companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. An “Inferred Mineral Resource” has a great amount of uncertainty as to its existence and as to its economic and legal feasibility. Under Canadian rules, estimates of Inferred Mineral Resources may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an “Inferred Mineral Resource” will ever be upgraded to a higher confidence category. Readers are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an “Inferred Mineral Resource” exists or is economically or legally mineable. Under United States standards, mineralization may not be classified as a “Reserve” unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the Reserve estimation is made. Readers are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of the Measured or Indicated Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves will ever be converted into Mineral Reserves. In addition, the definitions of “Proven Mineral Reserves” and “Probable Mineral Reserves” under CIM standards differ in certain respects from the standards of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. TECHNICAL INFORMATION The scientific and technical information in this presentation has been reviewed and approved by Mark A. Petersen, Vice President, Exploration of New Gold. Mr. Petersen is an AIPG Certified Professional Geologist and a “qualified person” under National Instrument 43-101.

  • 65. Endnotes (cont’d) 65 NON-GAAP MEASURES (1) ALL-IN SUSTAINING COSTS Consistent with guidance announced in 2013 by the World Gold Council, an association of various gold mining companies from around the world of which New Gold is a member, New Gold defines “all-in sustaining costs” per ounce as the sum of total cash costs, capital expenditures that are sustaining in nature, corporate general and administrative costs, capitalized and expensed exploration that is sustaining in nature and environmental reclamation costs, all divided by the ounces of gold sold to arrive at a per ounce figure. New Gold believes this non-GAAP financial measure provides further transparency into costs associated with producing gold and will assist analysts, investors and other stakeholders of the company in assessing the company’s operating performance, its ability to generate free cash flow from current operations and its overall value. This data is furnished to provide additional information and is a non-GAAP financial measure. All-in sustaining costs presented do not have a standardized meaning under GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other mining companies. It should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP and is not necessarily indicative of cash flow from operations under GAAP or operating costs presented under GAAP. Further details regarding all-in sustaining costs and a reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measures are provided in our MD&As accompanying our financial statements filed from time to time on www.sedar.com. (2) TOTAL CASH COSTS “Total cash costs” per ounce figures are non-GAAP measures which are calculated in accordance with a standard developed by The Gold Institute, a worldwide association of suppliers of gold and gold products that ceased operations in 2002. Adoption of the standard is voluntary and the cost measures presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. New Gold reports total cash costs on a sales basis. The company believes that certain investors use this information to evaluate the company’s ability to generate liquidity through operating cash flow and that this measure, along with sales, is considered to be a key indicator of the company’s ability to generate operating earnings and cash flow from its mining operations. Total cash costs include mine site operating costs such as mining, processing and administration costs, royalties, production taxes, and realized gains and losses on fuel contracts, but are exclusive of amortization, reclamation, capital and exploration costs and net of by-product sales. Total cash costs are then divided by ounces of gold sold to arrive at a per ounce figure. Co-product cash costs remove the impact of other metal sales that are produced as a by-product of gold production and apportion the cash costs to each metal produced on a percentage of revenue basis, and subsequently divides the amount by the total ounces of gold or silver or pounds of copper sold, as the case may be, to arrive at per ounce or per pound figures. Unless otherwise indicated, all total cash cost information in this presentation is net of by-product sales. These measures, along with sales, are considered to be a key indicator of a company’s ability to generate operating earnings and cash flow from its mining operations. This data is furnished to provide additional information and is a non-GAAP financial measure. Total cash costs and co-product cash costs presented do not have a standardized meaning under GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other mining companies. It should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP and is not necessarily indicative of cash flow from operations under GAAP or operating costs presented under GAAP. Further details regarding total cash costs and a reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measures are provided in our MD&As accompanying our financial statements filed from time to time on www.sedar.com. (3) ADJUSTED NET EARNINGS “Adjusted net earnings” and “adjusted net earnings per share” are non-GAAP financial measures. Net earnings have been adjusted and tax affected for the group of costs in “Other gains and losses” on the condensed consolidated income statement. The adjusted entries are also impacted for tax to the extent that the underlying entries are impacted for tax in the unadjusted net earnings from continuing operations. The company uses this measure for its own internal purposes. Management’s internal budgets and forecasts and public guidance do not reflect fair value changes on senior notes and non-hedged derivatives, foreign currency translation and fair value through profit or loss and financial asset gains/losses. Consequently, the presentation of adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share enables investors and analysts to better understand the underlying operating performance of our core mining business through the eyes of management. Management periodically evaluates the components of adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share based on an internal assessment of performance measures that are useful for evaluating the operating performance of our business and a review of the non-GAAP measures used by mining industry analysts and other mining companies. Adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standardized definition under IFRS and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. They should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. The measures are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flows from operations as determined under IFRS.
  • 66. Endnotes (cont’d) 66 (4) OPERATING MARGIN “Operating margin” is a non-GAAP financial measure with no standard meaning under GAAP, which management uses to further evaluate the company’s results of operations in each reporting period. Operating margin is calculated as revenue less operating expenses and therefore does not include depreciation and depletion. Operating margin is intended to provide additional information only and does not have any standardized definition under IFRS; it should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Other companies may calculate this measure differently and this measure is unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. (5) ADJUSTED NET CASH GENERATED FROM OPERATIONS BEFORE CHANGES IN NON-CASH OPERATING WORKING CAPITAL “Adjusted net cash generated from operations before changes in non-cash operating working capital” is a non-GAAP financial measure. Net cash generated from operations has been adjusted for one-time charges incurred in the second quarter of 2013 related to the settlement of the company’s legacy gold hedge position and in the third quarter of 2013 related to the company’s acquisition of the Rainy River project. There is also an adjustment to remove the impact of the change in non-cash operating working capital. The company believes the presentation of adjusted net cash generated from operations before changes in non-cash operating working capital enables investors and analysts to better understand the underlying operating performance of our core mining business. Adjusted net cash generated from operations before changes in non-cash operating working capital is intended to provide additional information only and does not have any standardized meaning under IFRS. It should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.
