  2. Cautionary and Forward-Looking Statement Information This presentation includes certain statements that may be deemed "forward-looking statements". All such statements, other than statements of historical facts that address exploration drilling, exploitation activities and other related events or developments are forward-looking statements. Although Amarc Resources Ltd. (“Amarc”) believes the expectations expressed in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, such statements are not guarantees of future performance and actual results or developments may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Assumptions used by Amarc to develop forward-looking statements include the following: Amarc’s projects will obtain all required environmental and other permits and all land use and other licenses, studies and exploration of Amarc’s projects will continue to be positive and no geological or technical problems will occur. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements include market prices, potential environmental issues or liabilities associated with exploration, development and mining activities, exploitation and exploration successes, continuity of mineralization, uncertainties related to the ability to obtain necessary permits, licenses and tenure and delays due to third party opposition, changes in and the effect of government policies regarding mining and natural resource exploration and exploitation, the exploration and development of properties located within Aboriginal groups asserted territories may affect or be perceived to affect asserted aboriginal rights and title, which may cause permitting delays or opposition by Aboriginal groups, continued availability of capital and financing and general economic, market or business conditions. Investors are cautioned that any such statements are not guarantees of future performance and actual results or developments may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements.

  4. Amarc – Focused on Developing a New Generation of BC Copper Mines Combining Strong Projects & Financing with Successful Management Has Created a Solid Platform to Build Value  Amarc, an HDI operated company, has assembled a 100% interest in extensive mineral property holdings in 3 porphyry copper districts in BC  Each of these projects – IKE, DUKE, JOY - has the capability for multiple discoveries of important copper+gold+molybdenum+silver deposits  Strong funding agreements have been negotiated with Hudbay to efficiently advance IKE and JOY with Amarc operating the technical programs  Amarc has worked hard to engage and consult with First Nations in each Project region  Government permits have been awarded for surface surveys and drilling  Amarc mobilized drills and crews to IKE, JOY and DUKE for 2017 field programs  The 2017 programs at IKE and JOY, funded by Hudbay, cost $3.3 million and $1.9 million, respectively, and included geophysical, geochemical and geological surveys with drilling; a $400,000 drill program funded by Amarc was completed at DUKE  This year Amarc plans to aggressively drill its DUKE discovery; Hudbay is funding $1.5 million of IKE Deposit drilling and $2.0 million of exploration on JOY  Amarc expects its work to lead to major porphyry copper deposit discoveries as it heads to its goal of Developing a New Generation of BC Copper Mines 4

An historical estimate of about 10 million tonnes grading 0.61% Cu and 0.79 g/t Au was reported in 1991 for Empress. It is not categorized as prescribed by National Instrument 43-101. A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as a current mineral resource or mineral reserve and Amarc is not treating the historical estimate as current.
