CMP Gold Trust - An application has been granted for the original listing in the Industrial category of up to 25,175,000 trust units (the “Trust Units”) and up to 10,000,000 series A trust unit purchase warrants (the “Series A Warrants”) of CMP Gold Trust (the “Trust”), of which up to 10,000,000 Trust Units and up to 10,000,000 Series A Warrants will be issued and outstanding, and up to 15,175,000 Trust Units and no Series A Warrants will be reserved for issuance upon completion of an initial public offering (the “Offering”).

Listing of the Trust Units and Series A Warrants will become effective at 5:01 p.m. on Thursday, January 24, 2008 in anticipation of the Offering closing on Friday, January 25, 2008 (the “Closing Date”). The Trust Units and Series A Warrants, other than those which have not been distributed to the public, will be posted for trading at the opening on Friday, January 25, 2008.

The Trust Units and Series A Warrants will be sold to the public in the form of units (the “Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one Trust Unit and one full Series A Warrant. The Units will separate immediately upon closing of the Offering.

Each Series A Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Trust Unit and one-half of one series B trust unit purchase warrant (each whole series B trust unit purchase warrant, a “Series B Warrant”) of the Trust at an exercise price of $12.00 at any time on or before 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the date that is the third anniversary of the Closing Date. Each whole Series B Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Trust Unit at an exercise price of $15.00 at any time on or before 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the date that is the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date.

The Series B Warrants will not be posted for trading until the minimum distribution requirements of there being at least 100 public holders of 100 Series B Warrants or more and at least 100,000 publicly held Series B Warrants are met, at which time a further Toronto Stock Exchange Bulletin will be issued announcing such posting for trading of the Series B Warrants. There can be no assurance that the Series B Warrants will meet such minimum distribution requirements and, as a result, there can be no assurance that the Series B Warrants will be posted for trading.

The Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants (together, the “Warrants”) will be governed by the terms of a warrant indenture to be dated January 25, 2008 between the Trust and Computershare Trust Company of Canada as warrant agent (the “Warrant Indenture”). The Warrant Indenture provides for appropriate adjustments to the Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants in the event of stock dividends, subdivisions, consolidations and other forms of capital reorganization.

Registration of interests in, and transfers of, the Trust Units and Warrants will be made through the book-based system of CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. (“CDS). Trust Units and Warrants of beneficial owners must be purchased, transferred and surrendered for retraction or redemption only through a CDS Participant. All rights of a beneficial owner of Trust Units and Warrants must be exercised through, and all payments or other property to which such beneficial owner is entitled will be made or delivered by, CDS or the CDS Participant through which the beneficial owner holds such Trust Units and Warrants. Upon purchase of any Trust Units and Warrants, the owner will receive only the customary confirmation.

Additional information on the Trust Units and Warrants can be found in the final prospectus dated December 20, 2007 (the “Prospectus”), which is available on www.SEDAR.com.
