Unregistered
Sales of Equity Securities

The unit
offering by White Mountain Titanium Corporation closed on December 30, 2010,
with a total of $3,500,000 in gross proceeds. In addition to the
initial sale of 4,635,385 units reported by the Company in its report on Form
8-K filed with the Commission on December 20, 2010, the Company sold an
additional 749,231 units for additional gross proceeds of $487,000 and also
issued an additional 187,310 warrants to 21 accredited
investors. These additional securities were issued without
registration under the Securities Act by reason of the exemptions from
registration afforded by the provisions of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act,
and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder. Each person acknowledged
appropriate investment representations with respect to the sales and consented
to the imposition of restrictive legends upon the certificates representing the
shares and warrants. They did not enter into the transaction with the
Company as a result of or subsequent to any advertisement, article, notice, or
other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, or similar media or
broadcast on television or radio, or presented at any seminar or
meeting. Each investor was afforded the opportunity to ask questions
of the Company’s management and to receive answers concerning the terms and
conditions of the offering. The Company paid $38,960 in selling
commissions based upon the additional $487,000 of proceeds in this offering to a
licensed selling agent, Chelsea Financial Services, and granted non-transferable
warrants to the selling agent to purchase 59,939 shares at a price of $0.65 per
share exercisable until December 16, 2013.
With the
sales of the additional units as set forth above, the Company currently has
outstanding 49,766,628 shares of its common stock.
