PART 1

Item 1. Business

As of February 28, 2007, Klondike Star Mineral Corporation is an established exploration company actively working on eight gold, base and precious metal properties, totaling approximately 463 km2 or 179 mi2 in the Yukon, located in the northwest corner of Canada. The Company is developing extensive surface and subsurface mineralized zones on an about 370 km2 or 143 mi2 land position underlying the site of the world-renowned Klondike gold producing region. These holdings include, but are not limited to properties known as the Lone Star Project and the Indian River Placer Project.

Additionally, the Company holds strategic interests in approximately 93 km2 or 36 mi2 of select high potential targets for gold, base and precious metals in the Watson Lake and Whitehorse mining districts of the Yukon. These include properties known as the Spice Project in the Watson Lake Mining District and the Ultra Project in the Whitehorse Mining District.

Description of the Business

From inception as a mineral exploration stage enterprise in December 2003, the Company has acquired mineral properties, negotiated joint ventures, established financing arrangements, and planned and conducted exploration activities involving 8 different projects in the Yukon, Canada. In addition, opportunities in other countries are being actively pursued.

Mineral exploration and mine development includes such activities as conventional prospecting, geological/geophysical surveys and research, as well as excavation, diamond and auger drilling, analysis of core, soil, mini and bulk samples, milling and testing of processing technologies, mineral resource assessment, facility construction and maintenance, equipment acquisition and maintenance, road and access construction, scoping studies and environmental monitoring for potential mine development.

In its first year as a mineral exploration company, Klondike Star earned a 55% and controlling interest in the Lone Star Project in the Dawson Mining District, Yukon. This property includes the site of the original Klondike Gold Rush. Since then, the Company has expanded systematically to a total of eight exploration and development projects: six gold prospects in the Klondike region of the Yukon and two gold, base and precious mineral properties in other parts of the Yukon.

In support of its mission, Klondike Star has established corporate goals relating to mineral production, capital formation and durable investor relationships, employer of choice, sustainable development and good corporate governance.

Klondike Star is advancing its projects operating under a multi-prong strategy. This involves a long-term, systematic and results-oriented approach towards exploration research, supported by a scaled expansion of field operations on carefully selected assets, combined with a concurrent investment in planning for potential mine development. The strategy is founded on and features such elements as:

* undertaking mineral exploration and development within a sustainable development paradigm;

* selecting and advancing quality mineral exploration projects managed and evaluated by a team of qualified industry professionals;

* establishing links with internationally recognized university-based geology resources for expertise and access to leading technology in geological science;

* demonstrating substantive focus on good corporate governance and best practices;

* forging strong relationships with financial professionals in order to provide adequate capital investment for its projects with the goal of bringing new mining production on-stream in the future;

* investing in relationships with and collaborative efforts involving First Nations, local suppliers and contractors;

* acquiring and supporting a large and growing shareholder base;

* practicing proactive, balanced and timely disclosure addressing what is newsworthy from a shareholder point of view in a manner that meets and exceeds regulatory requirements; and

* building shareholder value through every aspect of the Company's business and operations.

All of the long-lived assets, in the form of mineral property rights, are located in Canada as of year-end.

Following the end of the year ended February 28, 2007, Klondike Star established Klondike Star Canada Inc., a wholly owned Canadian subsidiary.

The Company currently has a year-round full-time equivalent labour force of about 15-20 employees that expands to 60-80 employees, contractors and consultants during the summer/fall exploration season, with a winter seasonal labour force of about 10 employees.

Klondike Star Mineral Corporation is listed on the NASD.OTCBB trading under the symbol "KDSM".

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Risks related to Company business

The Company's business model may not be sustainable:

The Company began active operations in late 2003 as a mineral exploration enterprise. Although the mineral properties acquired already have had substantial funds spent on research, exploration and development, including infrastructure such as roads, exploration camp facilities, core shack and test mill, the Company expects to incur significant additional development, exploration and communication expenses in connection with the business. To date, the Company has generated no revenue. It is expected the Company will continue to incur operating losses for the foreseeable future, and the Company may never achieve or sustain profitability. There are no assurances the Company will effectively build an operating mine.

The Company's future operating results are unpredictable:

Due to the absence of any revenues generated from our business model, and given the period of expenditures envisioned by our mineral explorations plans for the next several years, it is foreseeable that the Company may require further capital injections in order to finance planned exploration activities.

Mineral exploration and development involves a high degree of risk, and few properties which are explored are ultimately developed into producing mines. The Company's properties are still in the developmental and testing stages and may never reach a production stage. The Company's revenue model is dependant upon identifying and accessing a viable ore body that can prove feasible for production. The failure to identify and finance such a mine could have detrimental effects on the Company.

The Company may never generate revenues. Even if the Company does generate revenues, there is no assurance the Company will ever be profitable.

Operations and management:

A practical operational risk factor relates to the timely availability of necessary skilled labor and resources through recruitment, contracting or joint ventures. Although Klondike Star has and continues to invest proactively in solutions to these risks, one risk that is pervasive in the mineral exploration industry relates to the shortage of experienced diamond drillers in North America. Demand is outstripping qualified supply of these technical services so essential to advancing the understanding of potential mineral resources. Klondike Star requires diamond drilling capability on a timely basis for four Projects: Lone Star, Dominion, Spice and Ultra.

In order to achieve its objectives, the Company may add key people to the management team. The Company requires highly skilled technical, administrative, fleet management, sales and marketing, accounting, communications, research and development personnel, who are in high demand and are often subject to competing offers. As the Company grows, it will continue to need an increased number of management and support personnel.

Intense competition may affect Company profitability:

The Company faces many competitors that have been in business longer than we have. These competitors have the advantage of having entered the market earlier than the Company. There are a number of other projects currently existing in the Company's market place. These competitors are already accepted in the market place. The Company may therefore be unable to gain adequate market support to meet financial projections. The Company cannot assure you that its competitors will not develop projects that are equal or superior to those of the Company, or that achieve greater market acceptance.

Risk of equipment failures and loss of proprietary information:

The Company's operations depend on our ability to protect our proprietary information. Additionally, the Company is dependent upon its consultants and contractors.

The Company's projects are subject to, in part, damage from potential dangers such as fire, earthquake, power loss, vandalism, computer viruses, telecommunications failures and other acts beyond its control. Any temporary or permanent loss of one or more of these systems or facilities from an accident, an equipment malfunction, or some other cause could cause a loss. The Company has taken measures to protect its systems and equipment from these dangers, however there can be no assurances that these measures will be successful as planned.

The Company may also be faced with the misappropriation or theft of its proprietary information. The Company cannot ensure its proprietary information will not be stolen or otherwise misappropriated. The Company will undertake legal means to protect its information, but it cannot ensure it will be successful in such endeavours.

The inability of the Company to adequately protect its assets and properties could have a materially adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company.

Rights to mineral claims and leases involve uncertainties:

Rights to surface and subsurface mining properties involve certain inherent risks due to the difficulties of determining the validity of certain claims, as well as the potential for problems arising from the frequently ambiguous conveyance history, characteristic of many mining properties. Although the Company has taken steps to verify and protect the title to, and ownership interests and options in, the mineral properties in which it has an interest, in accordance with industry standards for the current stage of exploration of such properties, these procedures do not guarantee the Company's rights or interests. These rights or interests may be subject to unregistered prior agreements or transfers and be affected by undetected defects.

Additional capital may be needed:

The Company requires substantial working capital to fund its business. The Company will need to raise additional funds through public or private financing. Selling additional stock could dilute the equity interests of the Company's stockholders. If the Company borrows money, it will have to pay interest and may also have to agree to restrictions on its operating flexibility. The borrowing of additional monies may put a strain on the Company and its ability to develop and or expand.

Risks related to the mineral exploration and production industry

Commodity cycles:

The Company's projects are characterized by rapidly changing market cycles, extensive research and new mine introductions. The Company believes that its future success will depend in part upon its ability to continue to enhance its existing properties and to advance one or more projects to a production decision. As a result, the Company expects to continue to make a significant investment in exploration research and development, subject to the availability of working capital. The Company presently has limited working capital and is dependent upon its ability to raise further working capital to conduct its work.

Mineral exploration and development involves a high degree of risk and few properties which are explored are ultimately developed into producing mines. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to advance its properties to a production decision. The failure of the Company to develop new mines and finance them to production successfully and in a timely manner could adversely affect the Company's competitive position, financial condition and results of operation.

Adoption of new laws and government regulations relating to the mining industry could harm the Company's business:

The Company's business is subject to various local, territorial, provincial, First Nations, national and international laws that affect mining and the building of new mines. Other laws and regulations related to health, safety, working conditions, environment, land and water use, and other related laws and regulations may also affect the Company.

The Company relies upon various mining land use permits and water licenses to operate and grow the business. As the regulatory agencies change and introduce new requirements, the Company may incur difficulties in acquiring such permits and licenses in the future, which could adversely affect future development of the Company's properties.

There can be no assurances that governmental action will not adversely affect the Company and its business.

Health and safety risks:

Health and safety for employees and contractors is a known risk factor for any mineral exploration and development business. Despite an uncompromising commitment to superior safety performance and healthy workplace, incidents can and do happen with the potential for material consequences.

Under the guidance of the Board Environment, Health and Safety Committee, the Company has established policy and guidelines, and employs industry best practices to address this risk effectively and efficiently. Klondike Star Mineral Corporation has an uncompromising commitment to superior safety performance and a healthy work place.

Environmental and permitting risks:

The Company also relies upon various mining land use permits and water licenses to operate and expand the business. As the regulatory agencies change and introduce new requirements, the Company may incur difficulties in acquiring such permits and licenses in the future, which could adversely affect future development of the Company's properties. The J.A.E. claim block acquired as an expansion of the Dominion Project during the second quarter came with an existing mining land use permit. The Indian River placer properties acquired in the second quarter came with the benefit of both mining land use permits and water use authorization.

Company policy is based on the view that solid environmental performance within a sustainable development approach is a leading indicator of a well-managed, efficient and competitive corporation acting in the best interests of its business, its shareholders, its employees and the communities in which it operates.

Dependence upon third parties:

The Company is reliant, in part, upon third parties for its success. The Company may utilize third parties to assist in the exploration and development work, communications, management and financial consulting and other services. The Company cannot ensure the actions of one or more third parties will not adversely affect its business.

Additional business risks:

The occurrence of any of the foregoing, alone or in combination, may cause our business to fail and result in the loss of your entire investment. Even if the business avoids the foregoing, our success may still be impeded by the following: (a) the Company may be accused of infringing the proprietary rights of third parties; or (b) the Company may enter into strategic relationships that fail to provide anticipated benefits.

PART II

Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

a) Market Information

Prior to May 2001, there was no trading market for Company common stock. The Company obtained a trading symbol of "UBFI" and began trading on the NASD Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board in May 2001. In December, 2003, the Company changed its name to Klondike Star Mineral Corporation. The Company received the new trading symbol of "KDSM." Although listed on the Bulletin Board, there is no assurance that an active, liquid market for Company common stock will develop or that a trading market will continue. Our common stock is quoted on the NASD Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board at the present time and that is the source of the high and low quarterly price information compiled by the Company.

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted a rule that defines a "penny stock", for purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exemptions. Our common stock is presently considered a "penny stock" and is subject to such market rules. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Commission, that: (a) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (b) contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation to such duties or other requirements of Securities' laws; (c) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; (d) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (f) contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type, size and format, as the Commission shall require by rule or regulation. The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with: (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgement of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock.

b) Holders

There are approximately 5,550 holders of the common stock of the Company.

c) Dividends

The Registrant has never paid any dividends, cash or otherwise, on the common shares of the Company. There is no plan to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.

d) Unregistered Sales

During the period covered by this report, the Company has sold or issued 3,832,982 shares of common stock for a total cash of $9,090,299 under Rule 506 of Regulation D.

e) Options, Grants and Warrants

During the year ended February 28, 2007, the Company issued no (0) options to its principal officers and directors in lieu of cash payments for services rendered.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation

(a) Overview

Klondike Star Mineral Corporation is an established exploration and development company actively working on eight gold, base and precious metal major projects totaling 463 km2 or 179 mi2 in the Yukon, Canada. The Company is developing extensive surface and subsurface mineralized zones on a 370 km2 or 143 mi2 land position underlying in the site of the world-renowned Klondike gold producing region, and 93 km2 or 36 mi2 of select high potential targets in other parts of the Yukon. During the coming year, the company expects to continue increasing its land holdings, projects and exploration effort.

 

Overall Performance

Highlights for the twelve-months ending February 28, 2007 include:

Operational

- Completing aggressive exploration programs on Company properties, with some expansions from planned activity, such as more bulk sampling, IP geophysical surveys and delineation of new drill target zones on Lone Star Project, and bulk sampling on the Dominion Project; along with some adjustments from planned activities, such as a lower level of diamond drilling on Lone Star and Ultra Projects (both due to North American shortage of drilling resources) and re-scheduling of diamond drilling on the Spice Project from the winter 2006 to spring of 2007;

- Announcing new discoveries on the Lone Star and Ultra properties;

- Substantially completing the Lone Star Project scoping study and releasing results to date;

- Expanding the Dominion and Bonanza Projects by 65 mineral claims helping to further consolidate and strengthen these properties, and completing major baseline evaluation and exploration of the Dominion and Spice properties making them drill ready;

- Releasing Lone Star Project diamond drilling results that continue to increase the estimated mineralized area/resource, without yet defining limits most directions, along with the discovery of a new target zone and the identification of entirely new drill target zones for future investigation;

- Purchasing a new, flyable diamond drilling rigs, thereby managing a risk for planned and future exploration objectives;

- Completing the first stage of the test mining program on the Indian River Placer Project; the results validated placer gold estimates from previous auger drilling and confirmed the justification of an expanded test mining program in 2007 and business planning towards mine development;

- Opening the winter exploration base facility, mobilizing crews and launching the winter auger drilling program at the Indian River Placer Project with a target of 150 holes between November and April 2007.

Financial

- The loss from continuing operations for the year ending February 28, 2007 was $10,043,789 (loss of $0.38 per common share) (February 28, 2006 - $8,778,272 loss from continuing operations and $0.39 loss per common share) and cash used in operating activities for the twelve months ended February 28, 2007 was approximately $8,621,116 compared with approximately $5,610,326 for the twelve months ended February 28, 2006;

- During the year ended February 28, 2007, the Company issued restricted common stock and warrants for cash, with cash proceeds of $7,290,299 net of commissions and related expenses, which was used to finance working capital for current and future exploration activities;

- The changes in cash flow used in operations from February 2006, to February 2007, are related to the increased number of exploration projects underway in the fourth quarter ending February 28, 2007, and the scope of activities on certain of the projects as compared to February, 2006.

- Year-over-year financial indicators are outlined under Item 6 (above).

(b) Liquidity

The percentage of common shares that are now free trading has increased significantly. Trading volumes on the NASD.OTCBB continue to be substantial at various price levels over the course of the fiscal year ended February 28, 2007, indicating a healthy interest from investors in buying and selling.

(c) Capital resources

The Company has no material commitments for capital expenditures as of February 28, 2007. Pursuant to its business plan, resources are targeted to corporate development priorities.

At the end of the fiscal year, the cash resources of the Company remain healthy, although the volatility of share prices in the fourth quarter may impact on the ability to raise additional funds through private placements in a timely manner.

(d) Results of operations

As of February 28, 2007, the Company has a majority ownership interest in five projects and an exclusive option to explore, earn or purchase an ownership interest in three projects.

Two projects are advanced-stage exploration and early development projects:

* Lone Star Quartz

* Indian River Placer

Three projects are drill-ready, intermediate-stage exploration projects:

* Dominion Quartz

* Spice Quartz

* Ultra Quartz

Three projects are early-stage exploration projects:

* Indian River Quartz

* Bonanza Quartz

* Eldorado Placer

The summer/fall exploration season on six projects concluded towards the end of October. Consolidated assessments of results were completed in the fourth quarter ended February 28, 2007 and the following quarter. A winter exploration drilling program was started in the fourth quarter on the Indian River Placer Project. The arrangement to option mining on the Eldorado Placer Project to another placer miner was cancelled in the second quarter, and following a review of options, discussions with other parties commenced..

Following an assessment of alternatives for increasing the company's capacity to meet its planned and future diamond drilling requirements, the Company acquired a newly constructed, flyable diamond drilling rigs and has initiated plans to hire and train local crews on a phased basis. This initiative is anticipated to give Klondike Star more capacity, flexibility and control over its drilling programs. These resources would be in addition to those currently provided by other suppliers.

Klondike Star is continuing to work towards industry-standard mineralized material/mineral resource assessments, and a scoping study for the Lone Star and a business plan for Indian River Placer mining projects.

Footnote 1: Definitions of exploration stage

Where a project fits on the spectrum of exploration and development is in part a matter of judgment exercised by management;

Early stage exploration - grass roots prospecting, mapping, analysis of regional/site geology, trenching and chip sampling, staking of claims possibly with a few holes drilled with useful results;

Intermediate stage exploration - exploration continues including mini-bulk sampling, soil chemistry, geophysical surveys and analysis as appropriate with more holes drilled with useful results;

Advanced stage exploration - full-scale bulk sampling, mineral assessment establishes resource development potential, scoping or pre-feasibility study completed or nearing completion with positive results, environmental baseline research and assessment in progress;

Early development - bulk sampling and test mining, on-site testing of processing technology for throughput and mineral recovery; decision made to proceed with pre- or full feasibility study in progress or completed; scoping of environmental assessment and permitting completed and necessary steps initiated;

Development - environmental assessment completed, permits obtained, financing lined up, construction to begin in the next 6 - 12 months; or mine under construction through commissioning;

Production - operating mine with sales and revenue.

Advanced-stage exploration projects:

LONE STAR PROJECT

The Lone Star Project is an advanced-stage gold exploration property that is being studied for potential mine development. The Project consists of 1056 mineral claims and crown grants totaling 152 km2 (58.7 mi2). Lone Star is the largest project of six in the gold-producing Klondike region of Yukon, Canada.

The property is situated in the Tintina Gold Belt which spans Alaska and the Yukon and includes producing mines and major deposits. The Lone Star Project is located 20 km (12.4 mi) from Dawson City and is accessible by summer-maintained, graded gravel roads linking to the Klondike Highway.

First assembled by Canadian mine-finder Richard Hughes, the initial 500 mineral claims in the Klondike were optioned to Klondike Star in December 2003. It is the site of the former producing Lone Star Mine (1912-14) and decades of previous exploration.

Since acquiring the property, the Company has become the majority owner and operator, increased the size of the project from 500 to 1056 mineral claims and crown grants, constructed a 65-person exploration complex, with core processing and milling infrastructure on site, and completed extensive soil, chip and bulk sampling, diamond drilling, IP (induced polarization) geophysical surveys, assay and other analysis.

Exploration results and professional analysis to date indicate that the Lone Star Project represents an extensive mineralized area with a large-tonnage, low-grade gold target augmented by higher grade zones that warrants an expanded exploration effort and intensive evaluation for potential mine feasibility and development. The Company is working towards a mineral resource assessment consistent with industry and international standards and best practices.

Assay results from the 2005 exploration season were released sequentially October 6, 2005 to January 24, 2006. During the May to October, 2006 summer exploration program, the focus was on diamond drilling, bulk sampling, and ground and airborne geophysical surveys along with continuation of the sponsored Klondike Research Project with the Canadian University of British Columbia Mineral Deposit Research Unit (UBC MDRU).

Diamond drilling is delineating the extent of the known gold-bearing ore body in the primary zones of interest, including the Lone Star and extensions, the Buckland Shear between Gay Gulch and 27 Pup, and the Nugget Zone above Oro Grande Gulch.

A full-scale scoping study is in progress to assess the economic viability of the Lone Star mineral deposit, provide a baseline assessment of environmental and socio-economic considerations, along with a base case conceptual mine design, key factors such as energy and water supply, and capital and operating cost estimates.

Progressive exploration results, including the discovery of a new target, the JF Zone, were announced between December 2006 and February 2007 and a progress report on scoping study findings to date was released in March 2007 (filed with the SEC as an 8-K report, March 21, 2007). A summary report on the UBC MDRU geological studies on the Klondike region was also released in March 2007.

During the year-ended February 28, 2006, the stage of exploration moved to advanced exploration including diamond drilling, bulk sampling and on-site processing, and the initiation of a scoping study.

Assay results from the 2005 exploration season were released sequentially October 6, 2005 - January 24, 2006, and the majority of the results from the 2006 season were released in Q3.

The 2006 summer exploration program ran May through October as planned. Diamond drilling, bulk sampling, as well as a major geophysical survey proceeded alongside a scoping study to further delineate the potential mineral resource/reserve and assess the economic viability of the mineral deposit. New infrastructure, including a camp accommodation annex, a fitness and recreation centre, and expanded kitchen and dining facilities were constructed in the vicinity of the Eldorado Camp.

The drilling program was designed to further delineate the extent of the known gold bearing ore body in the primary zones of interest, including the Lone Star and extensions, the Buckland between Gay Gulch and 27 Pup, and the Nugget zone above Oro Grande Gulch. Due to lack of diamond drilling capability, drilling did not keep pace and steps were taken to address this, including an extended season and acquisition of a company owned diamond drill.

The exploration program was supplemented with ground and airborne IP geophysical surveys and extensive bulking sampling.

A consolidated assessment, preliminary analysis and an exploration plan for 2007 were completed in the first quarter of the year-ended February 28, 2008.

INDIAN RIVER PLACER PROJECT

The Indian River Placer Project is an advanced-stage placer gold exploration property. It is located 40 km from Dawson City in the heart of the Klondike gold-producing region of the Yukon, Canada. The Company's goal is to develop a large-scale placer mine.

The Indian River Placer Project consists of 214 mineral claims plus 17 leases totaling 37 km2 (14.3 mi2). The Indian River is emerging as one of the active areas of new investment and productive placer mining in the Klondike region. With the exception of a 49% interest in a small group of 29 claims acquired in the second quarter, Klondike Star holds 100% ownership of the project.

During the 2005-2006 winter drilling program, the Company completed 184 holes (double the 2004-2005 drilling) for a cumulative total of 274 holes or 2,426 meters. The winter drilling recovered gold from 90% of the holes, with gold recovered from 100% of the holes drilled in the main target area along the Indian River. In 2005, drilling resulted in gold recovery from 87% of the holes drilled.

During 2006, the shift was made from winter exploration (drilling) only to bulk sampling and testing mining using conventional processing technology (for throughput and gold recovery). This proceeded alongside pre-production activities, including the preparation of business plan to determine the economic viability of the mineral deposit.

Using a newly acquired trommel, 2006 summer bulk sampling and test processing was conducted on one site prepared for this purpose through stripping, clearing and permitting. Test mining is being supervised by an established Canadian firm specializing in mine engineering and processing technology. Initial results from the first stage of test mining were announced in November 2006. The Company believes the test mining results, at this one site, correlate and improve on the general findings of the previous drill-holes on the site. The grade indicated by auger drilling is only an indication of true grade, and in the Company's opinion, it must be checked and calibrated by test mining. The test resulted in the recovery of 45.08 ounces of raw placer gold. A conventional sluicing system was used to assess throughput and gold recovery, and the findings will be used in mine planning.

Klondike Star completed upgrading and extension of the access road, set up a camp, and prepared additional bulk sample test sites for the 2007 test mining program, to commence following spring break-up. The third consecutive winter drilling program commenced in late November 2006 and concluded in April 2007. A total of 141 auger drill holes were completed, almost entirely in the main target zone. Results are currently being compiled and analyzed.

Permit applications to facilitate future mining operations have been submitted and are under review by environmental assessment and regulatory authorities. Based upon conventional mining methods and the nature of the permitting regime for placer mining, it could be feasible to bring a placer mine into production in the short-term. A placer mining operation could generate cash flow for the Company to finance its major exploration and development initiatives.

Intermediate-stage exploration projects:

DOMINION PROJECT

An intermediate-stage gold and silver exploration project at the headwaters of Dominion Creek, the Dominion Project consists of 371 claims totaling 62.8 km2 (24.2 mi2). Klondike Star holds 100% or majority interest in 286 claims and an additional exclusive option to purchase an undivided 100% interest in 85 claims acquired in the first quarter ending May 31, 2006 and the and second quarter ending August 31, 2006.

On April 27, 2006, the Company announced the acquisition from Klondike Source Limited's (KSL) subsidiary, KSL Exploration (Yukon) Limited, of the exclusive right to purchase an undivided 100% interest in up to 56 quartz claims in the DOM block located on Hunker Dome in the eastern part of the Klondike goldfield. On August 8, 2006, Klondike Star announced the acquisition of the exclusive option to explore and purchase the J.A.E. claim group on King Solomon's Dome bordering on mineral claims already held by the Company. The Company has also staked an additional 118 claims to further consolidate the property into a single contiguous area.

Since 1999, a portion of the property has been explored by KSL Exploration (Yukon) Limited, including drilling, soil sampling and trenching. Before that, United Keno Hill Mines Limited, a longstanding operator of gold and silver properties, such as the Elsa and Keno Hill mines, invested significant effort on the other portion of the property. Significant exploration work has been conducted on the J.A.E. claim block by successive owners. Regional and project-specific infrastructure includes good seasonal road access.

The area covers several mineralized vein systems, some shafts and a long tunnel, and has been the subject of percussion drilling, soil geochemistry and trenching. Various broad zones of disseminated mineralization have been identified. The 2006 exploration objective was to consolidate and ground-truth previous exploration results, advance knowledge of the mineral resources, take advantage of extensive trenching in situ, identify future drill targets on a systematic and expedited basis, and consolidate the property and mineral interests through a strategic claim staking program. Activities included detailed mapping, extensive chip and soil sampling and geochemistry, evaluation of more than 60 existing trenches and assessment of selected targets, and bulk sampling and processing through the Eldorado test plant. A satellite camp was installed to support project operations.

The 2006 field work confirmed the presence of multiple, continuous gold-bearing structures that warrant testing by drilling.  In addition, several significant new gold-in-soil anomalies were identified in areas with no apparent prior exploration.

Drilling is proposed for 2007 at the JAE claim block. This lies at the headwaters of Dominion, Gold Bottom and Hunker creeks, all of which have been significant producers of placer gold, and are still being actively mined.  This area of the Dominion project hosts at least seven parallel gold and silver vein zones within an area of highly anomalous soil geochemistry that measures about 1.5 km by 1 km (0.9 mi by 0.6 mi).  Two of these zones, the Mitchell and Sheba have been outlined along hundreds of meters of length by previous exploration efforts since 1900, including numerous trenches and shallow shafts, direct shipping of hand selected silver-rich ore (7.2 tonnes averaging 6090 g/t silver = 178 oz/ton), soil geochemistry and geophysics.  Only three shallow drill holes, directed at the high-grade silver, have previously been drilled on the property.  It is expected that further surface work on the other parallel zones will result in additional drill targets, possibly during the 2007 program. 

Work at JAE in 2006 included extending the soil geochemical anomaly to the southwest, mapping and chip sampling various new and existing trenches, and processing two bulk samples from the Mitchell and Hunker Dome zones.  The Mitchell sample consisted of 5.7 tonnes of rusty schist without quartz veining, and returned 1.3 g/t gold.  This indicates potential for bulk mineable material beyond the higher grade veins.  The Hunker Dome zone bulk sample consisted of 2.3 tonnes across several narrow quartz veins, and returned 4.0 g/t gold. 

Klondike Star tested claims to the southeast of the JAE area with widespread MMI soil geochemical survey lines, identifying several large areas of gold in soil anomalies, up to 500 meters by 1000 meters.  The surveys successfully confirmed some areas with known mineralization, and identified new areas with no evidence of previous exploration.

SPICE PROJECT

The Spice Project is an intermediate-stage gold exploration project that has moved to a drill ready stage of exploration. As of February 28, 2007, the Spice Project consists of 51 mineral claims totaling 10.9 km2 (4.2 mi2 ). The property is located 28 km east of Ross River and 8 km south of the North Canol Road in the Watson Lake Mining District, Yukon, Canada. The Spice Project falls within the Tintina Gold Belt that hosts numerous gold deposits, producing mines, notably the Fort Knox, Pogo and (former) Brewery Creek, as well as active exploration projects.

The property has only been explored since 2000, when a regional geochemical survey conducted by the Yukon Geological Survey, Yukon Government, identified strong, coincident gold, silver and epithermal pathfinder elements. Follow-up geochemical sampling identified an open-ended anomalous zone and samples assayed up to 13.9 grams/tonne gold. An IP chargeability high and low resistivity coincides with the highest geochemical values.

Since acquiring the Spice properties, Klondike Star has stepped up exploration efforts, and in the first quarter/spring 2006, a staking program also increased the land base to 51 mineral claims totaling 10.9 square kilometers (4.2 square miles), an increase of 63%. Exploration to date has involved till, soil, silt and rock geochemistry, hand/blast pitting and trenching, ground magnetic, induced polarization/resistivity and VLF-EM geophysical surveys, and during the third quarter 2006 included additional soil geo-chemistry, a property evaluation, the delineation of drill targets and petrography.

The property is drill ready and a diamond drilling program of identified targets will proceed in the spring of 2007.

ULTRA PROJECT

The Ultra Project is an intermediate-stage base and precious metals exploration project that has moved to a drill ready stage in exploration. Following additional staking in the fall of 2005 and the fall of 2006, the Ultra Project consists of 404 mineral claims totaling 82 km2 (31.7 mi2). The targets include VMS zinc-copper-silver-gold and poly-metallic nickel-copper-platinum-palladium-gold. Two significant discoveries were announced following 2006 exploration.

The property is located in southwest Yukon, 42 km (26.1 mi) northwest of Haines Junction, Yukon, Canada, only 140 km (87 mi) from a deepwater port. Ten kilometers (6.2 miles) west of the Alaska Highway, it is accessible by rough gravel road. It is near the former nickel-platinum Wellgreen Mine. Ultra is also in the same geological zone as the world-class zinc-copper-gold Windy Craggy deposit in northern British Columbia.

In February 2007, based on the 2006 exploration program, the Company announced the discovery of two volcanogenic massive sulphide zones including a major VMS horizon with economically interesting grades and widths. The massive sulphide grades up to 3.23% copper, 6.75% zinc, 17.8 ppm silver and 0.15 ppm gold over a 4 meter thickness. Maximum values of 13.4% copper, 6.75% zinc, 56 ppm silver and 0.25 pp. gold were obtained from one zone. The second zone reported results of 11.54% copper, 1514 ppm zinc and 7.2 ppm silver over a three meter thickness.

The property is drill-ready based on a multi-year investment in prospecting, mapping, sampling, airborne and ground geophysical surveys and geochemistry analysis.

During the 2006 exploration program, beep mat survey was also conducted, along with hand trenching, blast trenching and soil geo-chemistry. Although specific sites were prepared, diamond drilling was deferred due to unavailability of required technical services including skilled labor.

Early-stage exploration projects:

BONANZA PROJECT

On May 19, 2006, Klondike Star acquired a controlling interest in 269 mineral claims in the Klondike region of the Yukon, Canada. Known as the Bonanza Project, the property totals 40.1 km2 (15.5 mi2). It is located in the heart of the Klondike gold fields and proven gold producing ground, 10 km from Dawson City.

Since 1999, building on previous exploration efforts, the property has been explored by KSL Exploration (Yukon) Ltd, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Klondike Source Limited, and PacRim Resources Limited (formerly Barramundi Gold Ltd.) using advanced-exploration techniques, geological mapping and geochemical soil surveys. 

KSL Exploration (Yukon) Limited considers the property to have a number of prospects on the basis of reasonably well-defined geochemical gold anomalies. In an independent geologist's report, KSL (Yukon) Limited reported that, "These surveys have identified several prospective targets with potential for hosting large tonnage, primary gold mineralization." (Roy Cox & Associates, November 10, 2003).

Although recently acquired, Klondike Star has initiated a preliminary exploration program including consolidation of mapping, sampling results, and all accessible assessment work on the property. Mineral claim staking was undertaken in the third quarter to supplement the property.

INDIAN RIVER CONGLOMERATE PROJECT

The Indian River Quartz Project is an early-stage gold exploration property for the Company. The property is located 40 km (24.9 mi) from Dawson City in the heart of the Klondike gold-producing region of the Yukon and the Tintina Gold Belt spanning Alaska and the Yukon. Access to the region is by good gravel road.

Additional geological mapping, rock and soil sampling and geochemistry analysis, trenching and a magnetometer survey were completed from May to September 2005. Auger drilling provided bedrock samples between January and April 2005. This work built on extensive reconnaissance and geological mapping, bulk sampling, diamond drilling and core analysis, and geochemical surveys completed by previous exploration companies.

During 2006, additional baseline work was undertaken to consolidate and ground-truth previous exploration results, with the focus on two claim blocks. The first involved an eastern extension of 2005 soil and rock sampling done to determine the presence of gold anomalies on the property (Reka claim block). The second (RMB claim block) pursued 2005 rock chip assays with elevated PGM values, targeting platinum group minerals to identify any PGM, as well as Ni, Cu and Au targets.

Mineral claims with low probability of having exploration value were released.

ELDORADO PLACER PROJECT

Located 20 km from Dawson City, Yukon, Canada, the Eldorado Placer Project is a placer gold project situated within the boundaries of the Lone Star Project. The placer mineral claims (surface) overlap some of Lone Star's quartz mineral claims (subsurface).

The property is in the heart of a longstanding gold-producing area. There are many placer mines operating in the general vicinity. The claims were originally assembled by Canadian mine-finder Richard Hughes and optioned to the Company in December 2003. The property has known placer gold potential. However, the Company has not itself conducted substantive exploration work to date. Over the last two years the right to conduct placer mining on the property has been optioned to an experienced Klondike placer miner and this arrangement was expected to continue. Following a second quarter assessment the Company has terminated this arrangement and taken direct responsibility for the project. Currently, consideration is being given to entering into a joint venture with an experienced Yukon placer miner to develop the property in 2007.

Future financial condition

Since 2003, the Company has raised capital successfully by way of private placements. Through recent placements and warrants, the Company expects to have the resources necessary to expand its exploration program, acquire new properties and move ahead with mining feasibility planning and development. The Company has forged strong relationships with financial professionals in order to provide adequate capital investment for its projects with the goal of bringing new mining production on-stream in the future. Commencing placer mining on the advanced-stage Indian River Placer Project would create a positive cash flow and change the status of the company to that of a producer.

Company policy is to expense mineral rights acquisitions and exploration activities to prove up resources and reserves as mineral exploration expenditures. At year-end, the Company owns the right to explore 463 km2, or 179 mi2 of mineral claims and leases. At February 2006 year end, the Company owned the right to explore 394 km2, or 152.1 mi2 of mineral claims and leases. At the first quarter ended May 31, 2006, the Company owned the right to explore 439 km2 or 169.2 mi2 of mineral claims and leases. At the second quarter ended August 31, 2006, the Company owned the right to explore 463 km2, or 179 mi2 of mineral claims, crown grants and leases. At the third quarter ended November 30, 2006, the Company owned the right to explore approximately 463 km2, or 179 mi2 of mineral claims, crown grants and leases.

Typically, the mineral exploration industry is cyclical, based upon the price of commodities and the demand for certain metals. The Company considers that it has entered this business at a time that is favorable within a long term commodity inflation cycle, and that it can sustain an enterprise in the field of mineral exploration and mining production.

Industry and economic affecting performance

The outlook for resource industries is becoming positive, as higher commodity prices result in a return to profitability for corporations, particularly in the mines and metals sector. As well, major mining companies are affected by depletion of their reserves and resources, raising concerns about shortages of metals for the future.

The outlook for gold is currently favorable, due to the present supply/demand deficit. Management is of the current opinion that the condition of declining world gold mine output may not find relief until approximately 2011, when enough new mines can come on-stream to overcome the depletion of existing mines. 

7 Year Gold Price, January 1, 2000 to February 28, 2007

The increasing price of gold and precious metals may result in a new area of favorable economics in the mining industry. At a time when gold was averaging $390, subject to certain assumptions, management considered that 1 gram of gold per tonne of ore may be sufficient to achieve profitability, provided sufficient scale under specific conditions.  If the future price of gold maintains current higher levels, it could mean a new understanding of the threshold of economics for large-scale gold mining operations.

The normal cyclical nature of a metals cycle is often a boom/bust scenario, often with a 5 year average. Characteristically, major mining companies do not make capital investment at the top of these cycles, rather at the bottom. Major mining companies are investing heavily, and repositioning through the acquisition of other companies and properties, as if this is going to be an extended long-term cycle. This suggests long-term demand for copper, zinc and particularly gold.

Resource Sector Outlook

There has been substantial activity within the Mines and Metal Sector during the year-ended February 28, 2007.  Many major mining companies have been involved in take-over battles as the industry consolidates and shapes new 'super' mining giants at the top of the industry.

Exploration expenditures have increased globally and in all sectors and as funding increases, particularly in the early part of the year, with high metals prices and a strong market for mines and metal stocks.  This will lead towards discoveries and results that will draw attention to the sector and eventually attract further investment.

The gold price broke out of a range in the mid-$400's in November 2005, and proceeded through various resistance levels to $500, $540, $570, $610 until it encountered the $650-$680 distribution, visible back in the early 1980's.  The brief move above $680 to an intra-day high of $740 was short-lived.  The sell-off that followed carried gold down to $540, with good base building between $570 and $650 since. 

Current gold price forecasts by GFMS Ltd. and TD Economics suggest that prices will range between $US 643 and $US 675 to the end of calendar 2007. (Sources: GFMS Limited Gold Survey 2006 Update 2, January 18, 2007 cites $US 643 over period of January 1, 2007 to June 30, 2007; and, TD Economics Quarterly Commodity Price Report, February 5, 2007 cites $US 650 - 675 over period of April 1, 2007 to December 31, 2007)

In 2006, the average price of gold was $US 603.93. During the first two calendar months of 2007 daily gold prices averaged $647 .16, ranging from a low of $US 608.40 to a high of $US 685.75. (Source: World Gold Council, London PM Fix) The three-year moving average for the price of gold as of February 29, 2007 was $US 499.50. (Source: World Gold Council, London PM Fix over period of March 1, 2004 to February 28, 2007)

Management believes that the market price for gold will remain strong, despite the recent fluctuations, given fundamental concerns about the demand/supply gap, declining central bank reserves, persistent currency debasement, geo-political strife and commodity inflation. The company maintains a view that market conditions across the board will keep metal prices strong and lead to higher metal prices in the future. 

Corporate governance matters

In the first quarter ended May 31, 2006, action plans were developed and approved for implementation of the Health and Safety Policy and the Environment and Sustainable Development Policy. In the third quarter ended November 30, 2006, a Company disclosure and director compensation policies were adopted.

The Annual Meeting of Shareholders was held on November 15, 2006, at Bellevue, Washington. The Shareholders elected the Board members to additional terms, approved the increase in the authorized common stock to 120,000,000 and reappointed Williams & Webster as independent auditors of the Company.

The Board met seven times during the year for regular quarterly and special meetings and a strategic planning session. The Audit Committee met on five occasions and the Environment, Health and Safety Committee meet twice.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Klondike Star Mineral Corp. as of February 28, 2007 and 2006, and the related statement of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from December 8, 2003 to February 28, 2007. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Klondike Star Mineral Corp. at February 28, 2007 and 2006 and the results of its operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from December 8, 2003 to February 28, 2007 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has recorded significant losses from operations and has insufficient revenues to support operational cash flows which together raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to the Financial Statements

February 28, 2007

NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Klondike Star Mineral Corporation (hereinafter "the Company") is engaged in mineral exploration in the Yukon Territory, Canada. The Company was originally incorporated in 1999 under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company was also registered in the Yukon Territory, Canada effective June 22, 2004. The Company maintains its head office in Whitehorse, Yukon Territory, Canada.

The Company was originally incorporated as Cyberbiz, Inc., later changed its name to Urbanfind, Inc. and again in 2004 changed its name to Klondike Star Mineral Corporation. The Company's fiscal year-end is the last calendar day of February.

Historically, the Company had been principally engaged in an internet-based business. Upon its acquisition of certain mining claims in December 2003, the Company began a new exploration stage as a minerals exploration company.

As the Company is in the exploration stage, it has not realized any revenues from its planned operations.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

This summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in understanding the financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company's management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

Accounting Methods

The Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Accounting Pronouncements - Recent

In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159. "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115" (hereinafter "SFAS No. 159"). This statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. This statement is expected to expand the use of fair value measurement, which is consistent with the Board's long term measurement objective for accounting for financial instruments. This statement is effective as of the beginning of an entity's first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007, although earlier adoption is permitted. Management has not determined the effect that adopting this statement would have on the Company's financial condition or results of operation.

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 158, "Employers' Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans an amendment of FASB Statement No. 87,88,106, and 132(R)" (hereinafter "SFAS No 158"). This statement requires an employer to recognize the overfunded or underfunded statues of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income of a business entity or changes in unrestricted net assets of a not for profit organization. This statement also requires an employer to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its year end statement of financial position, with limited exceptions. The adoption of this statement had no immediate material effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" (hereinafter "SFAS No. 157"). This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. This statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. This statement does not require any new fair value measurements, but for some entities, the application of this statement may change current practice. The adoption of this statement had no immediate material effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes an interpretation of FASB Statement No 109" (hereinafter "FIN 48"), which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company does not expect the adoption of FIN 48 to have a material impact on its financial reporting, and the Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any the adoption of FIN 48 will have on its disclosure requirements.

In March 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 156, "Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets--an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140."  This statement requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract in any of the following situations: a transfer of the servicer's financial assets that meets the requirements for sale accounting; a transfer of the servicer's financial assets to a qualifying special-purpose entity in a guaranteed mortgage securitization in which the transferor retains all of the resulting securities and classifies them as either available-for-sale securities or trading securities; or an acquisition or assumption of an obligation to service a financial asset that does not relate to financial assets of the servicer or its consolidated affiliates.  The statement also requires all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities to be initially measured at fair value, if practicable and permits an entity to choose either the amortization or fair value method for subsequent measurement of each class of servicing assets and liabilities.  The statement further permits, at its initial adoption,  a one-time reclassification of available for sale securities to trading securities by entities with recognized servicing rights, without calling into question the treatment of other available for sale securities under Statement 115, provided that the available for sale securities are identified in some manner as offsetting the entity's exposure to changes in fair value of servicing assets or servicing liabilities that a servicer elects to subsequently measure at fair value and requires separate presentation of servicing assets and servicing liabilities subsequently measured at fair value in the statement of financial position and additional disclosures for all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006, with early adoption permitted as of the beginning of an entity's fiscal year. Management believes the adoption of this statement will have no impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

In February 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 155, "Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments, an Amendment of FASB Standards No. 133 and 140" (hereinafter "SFAS No. 155"). This statement established the accounting for certain derivatives embedded in other instruments.  It simplifies accounting for certain hybrid financial instruments by permitting fair value re-measurement for any hybrid instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation under SFAS No. 133 as well as eliminating a restriction on the passive derivative instruments that a qualifying special-purpose entity ("SPE") may hold under SFAS No. 140.  This statement allows a public entity to irrevocably elect to initially and subsequently measure a hybrid instrument that would be required to be separated into a host contract and derivative in its entirety at fair value (with changes in fair value recognized in earnings) so long as that instrument is not designated as a hedging instrument pursuant to the statement.  SFAS No. 140 previously prohibited a qualifying special-purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument.  This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006, with early adoption permitted as of the beginning of an entity's fiscal year. Management believes the adoption of this statement will have no impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

In May 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 154, "Accounting Changes and Error Corrections," (hereinafter "SFAS No. 154") which replaces Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 20, "Accounting Changes," and SFAS No. 3, "Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements--An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 28." SFAS No. 154 provides guidance on accounting for and reporting changes in accounting principle and error corrections. SFAS No. 154 requires that changes in accounting principle be applied retrospectively to prior period financial statements and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Management does not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Compensated Absences

Employees of the Company are entitled to paid vacation, paid sick days and personal days off, depending on job classification, length of service, and other factors. A liability has been recorded in the accompanying financial statements for accrued vacation leave. No liability has been recorded in the financial statements for sick leave, personal days off, because of the relative immateriality of this obligation at the date of the balance sheet.

Concentration of Risk

The Company maintains its cash in a commercial bank in Bellevue, Washington, and in a commercial bank in Whitehorse, Yukon Territory. The account in Washington is guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $100,000. The Canadian dollar accounts in Yukon Territory are guaranteed by the Canadian Deposit Insurance Corporation (CIDC) up to $100,000 Canadian ($85,485 US dollars at February 28, 2007). At February 28, 2007, the Company exceeded the FDIC insured amount by approximately $281,000 and exceeds the CIDC insured amount by approximately $1,907,000 U.S.

Derivative Instruments

The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" (hereinafter "SFAS No. 133"), as amended by SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB No. 133", and SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities", and SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". These statements establish accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. They require that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value.

If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as a hedge, the objective of which is to match the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging derivative with the recognition of (i) the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk or (ii) the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transaction. For a derivative not designated as a hedging instrument, the gain or loss is recognized in income in the period of change.

Historically, the Company has not entered into derivatives contracts to hedge existing risks or for speculative purposes.

At February 28, 2007, the Company has not engaged in any transactions that would be considered derivative instruments or hedging activities.

Earnings Per Share

The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 128, which provides for calculation of "basic" and "diluted" earnings per share. Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity similar to fully diluted earnings per share. Although there were common stock equivalents outstanding February 28, 2007, they were not included in the calculation of earnings per share because they would have been considered anti-dilutive.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company's financial instruments as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," include cash, trade accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses and short-term borrowings. All instruments are accounted for on a historical cost basis, which, due to the short maturity of these financial instruments, approximates fair value at February 28, 2007.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company's functional currency is U.S. dollars. Monetary assets and liabilities of the Company's foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the year-end exchange rates, and revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates during the year. Realized gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are reflected in the results of operations.

Foreign Operations

The accompanying balance sheet contains certain recorded Company assets (principally cash and property and equipment) in a foreign country (Canada). The Company also holds mineral properties situated in the Yukon Territory of Canada which were expensed as an exploration cost when acquired. Although Canada is considered economically stable, it is always possible that unanticipated events in foreign countries could disrupt the Company's operations.

Impaired Asset Policy

In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 121, "Accounting for Impairment of Long-lived Assets." In complying with this standard, the Company reviews its long-lived assets quarterly to determine if any events or changes in circumstances have transpired which indicate that the carrying value of its assets may not be recoverable.

The Company does not believe any adjustments are needed to the carrying value of its assets at February 28, 2007.

Mineral Exploration and Development Costs

In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the Company expenses lease exploration costs as incurred. As of February 28, 2007, the exploration costs expensed during the Company's exploration stage have been approximately $11,226,000. Significant property acquisition payments for active exploration properties are capitalized. If no minable ore body is discovered, previously capitalized costs are expensed in the period the property is abandoned. Expenditures to develop new mines, to define further mineralization in existing ore bodies, and to expand the capacity of operating mines, are capitalized and amortized on a units of production basis over proven and probable reserves.

Should a property be abandoned, its capitalized costs are charged to operations. The Company charges to operations the allocable portion of capitalized costs attributable to properties sold. Capitalized costs are allocated to properties sold based on the proportion of claims sold to the claims remaining within the project area.

Mineral Properties

Costs of acquiring mineral properties are capitalized by project area upon purchase of the associated claims. Costs to maintain the mineral rights and leases are expensed as incurred. When a property reaches the production stage, the related capitalized costs will be amortized, using the units of production method on the basis of periodic estimates of ore reserves.

Mineral properties are periodically assessed for impairment of value and any diminution in value is charged to operations at the time of impairment. Should a property be abandoned, its unamortized capitalized costs are charged to operations. The Company charges to operations the allocable portion of capitalized costs attributable to properties sold. Capitalized costs are allocated to properties abandoned or sold based on the proportion of claims abandoned or sold to the claims remaining within the project area.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation of property and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from three to ten years. See Note 3.

Provision for Taxes

Income taxes are provided based upon the liability method of accounting pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," (hereinafter "SFAS No. 109"). Under this approach, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end. A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if management does not believe the Company has met the "more likely than not" standard imposed by SFAS No. 109 to allow recognition of such an asset. See Note 5.

Stock Options and Warrants Granted to Employees and Non-employees

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", defines a fair value-based method of accounting for stock options and other equity instruments. The Company has adopted this method, which measures compensation costs based on the estimated fair value of the award and recognizes that cost over the service period.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of the Company's financial statements; accordingly, it is possible that the actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions which could have a material effect on the reported amounts of the Company's financial position and results of operations.

Going Concern

As shown in the financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of approximately $10,044,000 for the year ended February 28, 2007 and has an accumulated deficit of approximately $51,519,000 since inception of the Company's exploration stage (December 8, 2003). The Company currently has no revenues and no operating mining properties.

These factors indicate that the Company may be unable to continue in existence. The financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence. Management's plans include actively seeking additional capital and management believes that new properties can ultimately be developed to enable the Company to continue its operations. However, there are inherent uncertainties in mining operations and management cannot provide assurances that it will be successful in its endeavors.

The Company's management believes that it will be able to generate sufficient cash from public or private debt or equity financing for the Company to continue to operate based on current expenditure projections of $11,000,000 for fiscal year ending in 2008. The Company has approximately $2,391,000 in cash at February 28, 2007.

NOTE 4 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

On occasion, the Company's shareholders or directors pay corporate expenses and/or provide services to the Company. Related party payables are unsecured and non-interest bearing, and are due on demand. Related party payables totaled $110,148 and $14,465 at February 28, 2007 and February 28, 2006, respectively. During the year ending February 28, 2007, the Company included in mineral exploration expense $1,033,734 ($298,967 for the year ended February 28, 2006) in transactions with a company controlled by an officer and director of the Company. The transactions were recorded at fair market value. During the year ending February 28, 2007, the Company included in mineral exploration expense payments to a director of $17,883 ($Nil in 2006).

Effective June 2004, the Company signed an agreement for the right of occupancy of a barn and property from one of the directors of the Company and his spouse ("the Owner"), for the shelter of pack horses and an office. The right of occupancy term is five years, renewable yearly thereafter. Rent is $1 per month. Prior to the expiration of the right of occupancy, the Owner may require the Company at the Company's sole cost and expense, to remove any alterations, installations, additions or improvements made by the Company. At the expiration of the lease, the Owner is obligated to pay to the occupier the fair market value of the buildings less 75 % and shall be entitled to pay such sum over a 20 year period in equal monthly installments without interest.

Leaseholds improvements, which total approximately $800,000 as of February 28, 2007, have been made to the barn and office.

NOTE 5 - INCOME TAX

At February 28, 2007, the Company had deferred tax assets calculated at an expected rate of 34% of approximately $6,153,000 (2006 - $2,947,000) principally arising from net operating loss carry forwards for income tax purposes. As management of the Company cannot determine that it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefit of the deferred tax asset, a valuation allowance equal to the deferred tax asset was recorded at February 28, 2007. The significant components of the deferred tax asset at February 28, 2007 and February 28, 2006 were as follows:

The Company recognized approximately $613,000 ($2,777,610 in 2006) of losses from stock options for compensation in fiscal 2007, which are not deductible for tax purposes and are not included in the above calculation of deferred tax assets. The change in the allowance account from February 28, 2006 to February 28, 2007 was $3,206,000 ($1,995,000 in 2006).

NOTE 6 - PREFERRED STOCK

The Company is authorized to issue 20,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value preferred stock. The Company previously issued 2,000,000 preferred stock convertible to 10 common shares of common stock, non-cumulative and non-dividend bearing. The Company's board of directors will determine the specific features of each additional issuance of preferred shares. At February 28, 2007 and 2006, the Company had 2,000,000 shares of preferred convertible stock issued and outstanding.

NOTE 8 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION AND STOCK OPTIONS

During the year ended February 28, 2007, the Company granted options to employees to purchase a total of 250,000 shares of common stock at $2.50 per share. These shares are fully vested and exercisable over a five year term. The Company recognized employee compensation expense of $437,500. The Company also granted options to consultants to purchase a total of 100,000 shares of common stock at $2.50 per share and recognized $175,000 compensation expense during the year.

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, the fair value of the options granted was estimated using the Black-Scholes Option Price Calculation. The following assumptions were made to value the stock options:

Risk-free Interest Rate 4.5%
Expected Life 5 years
Expected Volatility 30.8%
Dividends to be paid Nil

The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which are fully transferable.

In addition, option valuation models require the input of subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because the Company's employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.

On February 26, 2007, following an agreement being reached with the privately held company, the Company granted an extension for completing the purchase of a total of 1,000,000 at $2.50 per share, to February 28, 2007. The private company completed the purchase of the balance of the 1,000,000 shares on February 28, 2007.

The Company anticipates further negotiations with the private company with regard to the time periods in which rights to purchase additional shares may be exercised.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

During the two most recent fiscal years and subsequent period, there has been no change and no disagreements, with independent accountants engaged to audit financial statements.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

Company management has reviewed the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of February 28, 2007 ("evaluation date"). The Company has developed and implemented a number of policies and procedures to assist in the consistent application of internal controls. This includes the Board of Directors Charter, the Audit Committee charter, the Code of Business Ethics and Conduct, and the Authorization Policy. The Company has financial reporting procedures in place to assist in ensuring reliable and accurate information is provided to shareholders and potential investors and to ensure compliance with financial reporting regulatory oversight bodies. Based upon that review, Management has concluded that company disclosure controls and procedures are effective for timely gathering, analyzing and disclosing the information disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. There have been no significant changes made in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect our internal controls, in a negative manner, subsequent to the evaluation date.

In anticipation of the requirement to complete and disclose Management's assessment regarding internal controls over financial reporting in the annual report for the year-ended February 28, 2008, the Audit Committee has approved a project charter including terms of reference, deliverables, timetable and establishment of a steering committee to review compliance with sections 302 and 404 of Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (SOX) and expedite necessary remediation, if any. It is supported by a team led by an independent, registered accountant. The Company's objective is not merely to comply with these requirements, but to use them as a catalyst to examine financial, management and operational processes and programs through the organization. Management believes that executing a SOX compliance initiative that seeks to improve processes and programs throughout the Company will achieve a net benefit in terms of improved risk management, operational efficiency and effectiveness, and enhanced shareholder confidence.

Item 9B. Other Information

The Code was adopted effective November 29, 2005 and is posted on the Company website www.klondikestar.com in the corporate governance section under About Us.

(i) Nominating committee

The Board as a whole fulfills the role of a nominating committee. As it is a small board of five directors of whom 3 are independent directors, this is considered an appropriate and effective approach. The Board will consider director candidates recommended by shareholders as long as a nomination has the consent of the nominee and is received in sufficient time with adequate levels of information for it to be dealt with at an annual general meeting of shareholders in accordance with the proxy and information statement and shareholder notice requirements.

The Board of Directors Charter, adopted November 29, 2005 sets out director qualifications. Nominees for director appointments shall satisfy relevant regulatory and stock market/exchange listing requirements, and include among them, persons qualified for appointment to the Audit Committee. Directors must possess certain characteristics and traits to execute Board duties and responsibilities. The basic steps in the nomination and appointment process include candidate interviews with company representatives, submission of resume and, if appropriate, reference checks, orientation visit to Klondike Star exploration properties if possible, candidate disclosure of potential conflicts of interest or other matters requiring attention through correspondence or a meeting with a company legal representative, recommendation to the Board of Directors, approval by the Board for recommendation to the shareholders at the annual general meeting, and shareholder vote.

The criteria for Board membership include:

Integrity and accountability

* Directors must demonstrate high ethical standards and integrity in their personal and professional dealings, and be willing to act on -- and remain accountable for -- their boardroom decisions.

Informed judgement

* The ability to provide wise, thoughtful counsel on a broad range of issues ranks high among the qualities required in directors. They must develop a depth of knowledge of mining exploration and development, in order to understand and question the assumptions upon which the strategic and business plans are based, and to form an independent judgement as to the probability that such plans can be achieved.

Financial literacy

* One of the most important roles of the Board is to monitor financial performance. To do this, directors must have a high level of financial literacy. They should know how to read financial statements, and they should understand the ways of evaluating company performance.

Mature confidence

* Teamwork and integrated thinking: Directors who value Board and team performance over individual performance, who consider all factors in decision-making and who possess respect for others, facilitate superior Board performance. Nominees ought to endorse and practice this approach.

* Communication: Openness to others' opinions and the willingness to listen should be as highly developed as the ability to communicate persuasively. Directors must approach others assertively, responsibly and supportively, and be willing to raise tough questions in a manner that encourages open and candid discussion.

Track record and experience

* In today's highly competitive world, only companies capable of performing at the highest levels are likely to prosper. Directors must bring a history of achievement that reflects high standards for themselves and others.

Additional criteria are set out in the Audit Committee Charter, adopted November 29, 2005, for directors qualified for appointment to the Audit Committee.

All members of the Audit Committee shall be directors whom the Board has determined are independent of management of the company and are free of any relationship that, in the opinion of the Board, would interfere with his or her individual exercise of independent judgment as a committee member. For this determination, the Board shall be guided by the applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules.

In particular, each Committee member must:

(1) be independent as defined under NASDAQ Rule 4200(a)(15), elaborated by IM - 4200, and Rule 4350 that establishes additional requirements for Audit Committee members.

(2) meet the criteria for independence set forth in Rule 10A-3(b)(1), subject to exemptions provided in Rule 10A-3(c), under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act").

(3) not have participated in the preparation of the financial statements of the company or any current subsidiary of the company at any time during the past three years.

(4) meet the "non-employee director" standard within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act, as amended from time to time; and

(5) meet the "outside director" standard within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time (the "Code").

Each member of the Committee shall be "financially literate" and at least one member ought to have significant "accounting or related financial management expertise"1 as those terms are defined from time to time under the requirements or guidelines for Audit Committee service under securities laws and the rules of any stock market or exchange on which the company's securities are listed for trading.

The two directors standing for election for the first time at the November 2006 annual general meeting of shareholders were nominated by the Board of Directors.

(d) Audit Committee

The Company has an Audit Committee established by the Board of Directors with an Audit Committee Charter. As of February 28, 2007, the committee consists of three independent directors: Dr. Albert Khelfa, Sergei Doodchenko, P. Eng., and Ayman Shahin. The Committee has at least one financial expert serving on the committee, Ayman Shahin, for whom a summary of relevant experience is provided in Item 10.

During the year-ending February 28, 2007, the Audit Committee met five times. The Audit Committee:

- has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements for the previous fiscal year ended February 28, 2006 with management;

- has discussed with the independent auditors the matters required to be discussed by the Statement on Audit Standards No. 61, as amended; and

- has received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent auditors required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, and has discussed with the independent auditor the independent auditor's independence;

- based on the review and discussions noted above, recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 2007.

The Audit Committee Charter is available on the Company website www.klondikestar.com in the corporate governance section under About Us.

(e) Compensation committee

The Board as a whole fulfills the role of a compensation committee. As it is a small board of five directors of whom 3 are independent directors, this is considered an appropriate and effective approach. The Board of Directors Charter identifies its responsibility for leadership development and senior level staffing and Board compensation, as follows:

( Select, establish compensation, monitor, evaluate and, if necessary, replace the President and/or Chief Executive Officer.

* Evaluate and approve proposals for overall compensation policies applicable to members of senior management.

* Conduct a review, at least once every three years, of the components and amount of Board compensation in relation to other comparable companies, having regard to such matters as time commitment, responsibility and trends in director compensation.

In addition the Board approved Authorization Policy, identifies remuneration policy and decision-making authority within purview of the Board of Directors and as delegated to Management with respect to directors, officers, the executive, and other employees. Executive officers and independent consultants may assist in the formulation of proposals respecting compensation policy or individual remuneration for the Board's consideration.

(f) Shareholder communications

Through provisions of the Board of Directors Charter, the Board established a communication policy that provides a process for security holders to send communications to the board of directors.

With respect to the handling of any shareholders communications or similar contacts to the Board, shareholders may contact the Chair or the Board as a group by the following means:

By mail: Klondike Star Mineral Corporation

c/o Parsons/Burnett, LLP

Suite 2070 Skyline Tower

10900 NE 4th Street

Bellevue, Washington USA 98004

Attention: Corporate Secretary

By email: communications@klondikestar.com

Alternatively, shareholders may also address correspondence to the Chair or the Board using the Company investor relations email: information@klondikestar.com.

In the event that communications are not relayed directly to directors, they are conveyed to the full board through the Chair.

Since their adoption in 2005, the Charters for the Board of the Directors, the Audit Committee and the Environment, Health and Safety Committee have been posted on the Company website www.klondikestar.com in the corporate governance section under About Us.

Item 11. Executive Compensation

(a) Compensation discussion and analysis

In the effort to accomplish compensation objectives for executive officers, the Board of Directors seeks to accomplish these goals:

- to motivate executives to achieve important corporate and personal performance objectives and reward them when such objectives are mete;

- to recruit and retain highly qualified executive officers by offering overall compensation which is competitive with that offered for comparable positions in other mineral exploration and development companies; and

- to align the interests of executive officers with the long-term interests of shareholders through participation in the Company's stock option incentive plan.

The Company's executive compensation package currently consists of these principal components: salary, annual incentive cash bonus, various health plan benefits generally available to year-round or multi-season employees, and long-term incentives in the form of stock options.

The specific purpose of the 2003 Stock Incentive Plan for Employees is to provide Employees of the Company and any Subsidiary with an increased incentive to make significant and extraordinary contributions to the long-term performance and growth of the Company and subsidiaries, to join the interests of Employees, directors and contractors with the interests of the shareholders of the Company, and to facilitate attracting and retaining Employees, directors and contractors of exceptional ability.

Salaries for executive officers are determined by evaluating responsibilities inherent in the position held and the individual's experience and past performance, as well as by reference to the competitive marketplace for management talent at other mining companies. The Board has access to industry, local and national compensation information and/or surveys, prepared for the most part by independent consultants, professional or industry organizations, as well as the compensation policies, practices and awards disclosed by other mining companies reporting in the United States and Canada. An individual whose compensation is being determined abstains from voting on the matter.

On or about the end of each year, the Board reviews actual performance against the objectives set by the Company and the executive for the year. The assessment of whether Company objectives have been met includes, but is not limited to, considering the measured progress of the Company's exploration and development projects, other specific business plan objectives, corporate governance and regulatory accountability, strategic alliances and similar achievements.

Stock options are generally awarded to executive officers at commencement of employment and periodically thereafter. Options are granted to reward individuals for current performance, expected future performance and value to the Company, and take into account the stock options held by the individual. The principles described above apply to the determination of the compensation of all executive officers, including the President.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

The Board of Directors as a whole performs the role of a compensation committee. During the year-ending February 28, 2007, directors Hans Boge, P.Eng. (officer), Donald W. Flinn, P.Eng. (officer), Sergei Doodchenko (independent director) and Dr. Albert Khelfa (independent director) dealt with director compensation policy and employment contracts for the President and Vice-President, Operations.

Compensation Committee Report

The equity compensation plans include the 2003 Stock Incentive Plan for Employees and the 2005 Stock Incentive Plan for Consultants and Advisors.

The material features of the 2003 Stock Incentive Plan for Employees include:

- The purpose of the Plan is to provide Employees of the Company and any Subsidiary with an increased incentive to make significant and extraordinary contributions to the long-term performance and growth of the Company and Subsidiaries, to join the interests of Employees, directors and contractors with the interests of the shareholders of the Company, and to facilitate attracting and retaining Employees, directors and contractors of exceptional ability.

- The Plan shall be administered by the Board. The Board shall have authority to grant stock option Awards from those eligible to be Participants under the Plan, including the amount, terms and conditions of stock to be awarded to each such person. The Board may establish a committee and may delegate certain authorities.

- The maximum number of shares with respect to which stock options may be awarded under the Plan shall be 2,800,000 shares in the aggregate of common stock of the Company registered under Section 12 of the Securities and Exchange Act.

- The Board shall determine and designate from time to time, in its discretion, those Employees of the Company or any Subsidiary to receive stock options; provided, however, that stock options may be granted in the case of employees of a Subsidiary, only if the Company owns, directly or indirectly, 50% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Subsidiary, and the Subsidiary is a corporation.

- Each stock option shall be evidenced by a written Company-Participant Agreement ("Agreement") containing such provisions as may be approved by the Board. Each such Agreement shall constitute a binding contract between the Company and the Participant and every Participant, upon acceptance of such Agreement, shall be bound by the terms and restrictions of the Plan and of such Agreement.

- The Board, in its discretion, shall establish the price per share for which the shares covered by the stock option may be purchased, although the price of each share shall be no less than $1.00.

- Each stock option awarded hereunder may be exercisable at any such time or times or in any such installments as may be determined by the Board at the time of the Award; provided, however, no stock option right may be exercisable after the expiration of five years from the date of grant unless the Participant dies or becomes disabled prior thereto.

The material features of the 2005 Stock Incentive Plan for Consultants and Advisors include:

- The purpose of the Plan is to advance the interests of the Company's stockholders by enhancing the Company's ability to attract, retain and motivate persons who make (or are expected to make) important contributions to the Company by providing such persons with equity ownership opportunities and performance-based incentives and thereby better aligning the interests of such persons with those of the Company's stockholders.

- The Plan shall be administered by the Board. The Board shall have authority to grant stock option awards from those eligible to be Participants under the Plan, including the amount, terms and conditions of stock to be awarded to each such person. The plan provides for a committee or delegation of certain authorities to Management.

- The maximum number of shares with respect to which stock options may be awarded under the Plan shall be 2,800,000 shares in the aggregate of Common Stock of the Company. These are not Form S-8 registered securities.

- The Board may grant Awards entitling recipients to acquire shares of Common Stock, subject to the right of the Company to repurchase all or part of such shares at their issue price or other stated or formula price (or to require forfeiture of such shares if issued at no cost) from the recipient in the event that conditions specified by the Board in the applicable Award are not satisfied prior to the end of the applicable restriction period or periods established by the Board for such Award (each, a "Restricted Stock Award").

- The Board shall determine and designate from time to time, in its Discretion, those Consultants and Advisors of the Company or any Subsidiary to receive stock options, restricted stock awards, or other stock-based awards; provided, however, that stock options may be granted in the case of Consultants and Advisors of a Subsidiary, only if the Company owns, directly or indirectly, 50% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Subsidiary, and the Subsidiary is a corporation.

- Except as the Board may otherwise determine or provide in an Award, Awards shall not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered by the Participant to whom they are granted, either voluntarily or by operation of law, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and stock options shall be exercisable only by the Participant.

- If not sooner terminated, each stock option awarded hereunder shall expire not more than five (5) years from the date of the granting thereof.
