A. Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are defined by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") as those controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Registrant in reports filed or submitted by it under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms.

The Registrant’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer has conducted an evaluation pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act, as amended, of the effectiveness of the Registrant's disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this annual report. Based on this evaluation, the Registrant’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures were effective as at December 31, 2009.

B. Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The Registrant’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) and has designed such internal control over financial reporting to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), including a reconciliation to U.S. GAAP. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or deter misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate.

The Registrant’s management has performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009. Based on this evaluation, management has concluded that such internal control over financial reporting is effective as at December 31, 2009. This evaluation was based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

The effectiveness of the Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting as at December 31, 2009 has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PWC”), an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which accompanies the Registrant's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009, filed as Exhibit 1.2 to this annual report on Form 40-F.

D. Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes to internal controls during the period covered by this report ending December 31, 2009.

The Commission has indicated that the designation of a person as an audit committee financial expert does not make such person an "expert" for any purpose, impose any duties, obligations or liability on such person that are greater than those imposed on members of the audit committee and the board of directors who do not carry this designation or affect the duties, obligations or liability of any other member of the audit committee or board of directors.

G. Code of Ethics

The Registrant's board of directors has adopted a code of ethics (the "Code") that applies to all directors and officers. The Registrant's Code can be viewed on its website at www.crystallex.com.
