Notes to Editors:
As previously disclosed, HVPE is now using Economic NAV as its primary reporting
metric for its Monthly Updates and management analysis. Economic NAV excludes
the fair value of the liability arising as a result of the issue of the Put
Rights as part of the Company's Liquidity Plan, and represents the most
conservative outcome upon the maturity of the Put Rights. The Company believes
that this is the most appropriate measure of economic value to holders of the
Shares.
