Terry C. Turner. On February 14, 1997, the Company's Board of Directors appointed me, Terry C. Turner, 44, as a Director, President and CEO.

B. Formation of a Technical Advisory Board.
In May 1997, the Company's Board of Directors formed a Technical Advisory Board to assist the Company with the evaluation, exploration and operation of its current Bolivian property, and any future acquisitions. This Advisory Board will initially consist of three members with broad backgrounds and extensive experience with major mining companies. They are as follows:
Max S. Staheli. Mr. Staheli received a B.A. in Finance and an MBA from the University of Utah. He has worked for KPMG Peat, Marwick & Co. in Honolulu, Hawaii in the late 60's, and nine years as a manager with Atlantic Richfield Co. (1973-82); however, his most recent corporate experience contributes most notably to Golden Eagle's future. Mr. Staheli spent the last 14 years with Barrick Gold Corporation, most recently as their Controller of South American Operations headquartered in Lima, Peru. Mr. Staheli developed and implemented administrative policies and procedures for Barrick's launch into South America. He also successfully built the corporate structure for Barrick's extensive exploration and development program, which included Bolivia. Mr. Staheli was instrumental in the rapid growth of Barrick Gold Corporation in the South Amercan market between 1994-96.
