EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

McEwen Mining Inc. (“we”, “us”, or the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (this “Amendment”) to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 10, 2014 (the “Original Filing”) to amend Item 15 of Part IV of the Original Filing, pursuant to Rule 3-09 of Regulation S-X to include the financial statements and related notes of Minera Santa Cruz S.A (“MSC”), a significant equity investee in which the Company holds a 49% equity ownership interest. In addition, as required by Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), new certifications by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are filed as exhibits to this Amendment.

 

Rule 3-09 of Regulation S-X provides that if a 50%-or-less-owned person accounted for by the equity method meets the first or third condition of the significant subsidiary tests set forth in Rule 1-02(w) of Regulation S-X, substituting 20% for 10%, separate financial statements for such 50%-or-less-owned person shall be filed. MSC met the significant subsidiary test described above for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2013 and the Company has included in this Form 10-K/A the required Statements of Financial Position as of the end of the each of the two years ended December 31, 2013 and the opening Statement of Financial Position as of January 1, 2012, the Statements of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income for the two years ended December 31, 2013, the Statements of Changes Equity for two years ended December 31, 2013, the Statements of Cash Flows for the two years ended December 31, 2013, and the accompanying Notes to the Financial Statements of MSC. These statements and accompanying notes were required to be audited only for those fiscal years in which either the first or third condition of the significant subsidiary tests set forth in Rule 1-02(w), substituting 20 % for 10%, is met. The Company’s significance test is calculated as of the end of its fiscal year and for its fiscal year.

 

No attempt has been made in this Amendment to modify or update the disclosures in the Original Filing except as required to reflect the effect of the revisions discussed herein. Except as otherwise noted herein, this Amendment continues to describe conditions as of the date of the Original Filing and the disclosures contained herein have not been updated to reflect events, results or developments that occurred after the date of the Original Filing, or to modify or update those disclosures affected by subsequent events. Among other things, forward-looking statements made in the Original Filing have not been revised to reflect events, results or developments that occurred or facts that became known to us after the date of the Original Filing, and such forward-looking statements should be read in conjunction with our filings with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original Filing. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Filing and the Company’s other filings with the SEC subsequent to March 10, 2014.
