**** IMPORTANT REMINDER TO
STOCKHOLDERS****
June 2, 2015
Dear Revett Mining Company, Inc. Stockholder:
By now, you should have received your proxy material for the
2015 Revett Mining Company, Inc. Special Meeting of Stockholders, which is
scheduled to be held on June 12, 2015. A proposal to merge with a subsidiary of
Hecla Mining Company will be voted on at the Special Meeting. Your custodians
records indicate that you had not yet voted your shares at the time of the
mailing of this reminder letter.
Your Board of Directors unanimously recommends Revett
stockholders vote FOR the merger proposal. The approval of this merger
will solve Revetts immediate cash crisis, and eliminate the risk of seeking
protection in a bankruptcy proceeding. Further, approval of the merger proposal
will avoid the need to seek additional financing, including on terms which may
not be favorable (if even available). Currently, Revett does not have a source
of revenue as a result of operations being suspended.
If the merger is not completed, Revett would have to seek
additional financing, which may be unavailable, or consider other alternatives,
including a bankruptcy filing.
The Troy mine was placed on care and maintenance in January
2015 due to low metal prices and development of the Troy I Beds has ceased. As a
result, Revett has no source of revenue. The Troy Mine remains uneconomic at
current copper and silver prices and the Company does not have adequate funds to
maintain the Troy Mine and complete permitting at Rock Creek.
Revett presently does not have the financial resources to
complete the construction of the new decline at Troy mine (Revetts sole source
of revenue) or to develop Rock Creek.
PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE TODAY. The fastest and easiest way to
vote is by telephone or over the Internet. Instructions on how to vote your
shares over the telephone or Internet are enclosed with this letter.
Alternatively, you may sign and return the enclosed voting form in the envelope
provided.
WE URGE YOU TO EXERCISE YOUR RIGHT TO
VOTE TODAY.
If you sign and return the enclosed form without indicating a
different choice, your shares will be voted as recommended by the Board of
Directors.
For further information about the merger proposal, please see
the proxy statement/prospectus mailed to you on May 8, 2015.
If you have any questions or if you need assistance
voting, or would like another copy of the proxy statement/prospectus, please
call Morrow & Co., LLC, our proxy solicitor, at (877) 787-9239.
Thank you for your investment in Revett and for taking the time
to vote your shares.
Sincerely,
Revett Mining Company, Inc.
