Consent and Waiver Agreement
On April 16, 2010, General Moly, Inc. (the Company) entered into a Consent and Waiver Agreement with ArcelorMittal S.A. (ArcelorMittal), a significant stockholder and off-take partner of the Company, whereby ArcelorMittal agreed to waive its anti-dilution rights with respect to the Companys proposed issuance of stock under the Hanlong (USA) Mining Investment, Inc. (Hanlong) investment announced March 5, 2010. ArcelorMittal will retain anti-dilution rights for future issuances of Company common stock. ArcelorMittal also consented to the issuance of common stock at a price that may be below the market price. ArcelorMittal will also have the one-time right to purchase a number of shares that will ensure that ArcelorMittal owns 10 percent of the outstanding common stock of the Company if the Company issues more than 10,000,000 shares of common stock. Obtaining ArcelorMittals consent and waiver was a requirement under the terms of the Bridge Loan Agreement between the Company and Hanlong, as previously disclosed. The foregoing description of the Consent and Waiver Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Consent and Waiver Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
Extension Molybdenum Supply Agreement
ArcelorMittal and the Company also entered into an Extension Molybdenum Supply Agreement on April 16, 2010 (the Extension Agreement), providing ArcelorMittal with a five-year option to make effective an agreement to purchase from the Company three million pounds of molybdenum per year for 10 years following the expiration of the current five year, 6.5 million annual pound molybdenum supply agreement. The additional optional off-take will be priced in alignment with the Companys existing supply agreements. In order for ArcelorMittal to exercise this option and make the Extension Agreement effective, ArcelorMittal must have beneficial ownership of more than 11,100,000 shares of Company common stock on or prior to April 15, 2015. ArcelorMittal currently owns 8,256,699 shares of common stock.
Amended and Restated Warrants
Coghill Capital Management and its affiliates (Coghill), a significant stockholder in the Company, provided substantial assistance to the Company with the signing of the Consent and Waiver Agreement and the Extension Agreement with ArcelorMittal. In recognition of that support, on April 16, 2010, the Company amended and restated warrants issued to Coghill to purchase one million shares of the Companys common stock issued in connection with the November 2007 private placement and original molybdenum supply agreement with ArcelorMittal to reduce the price of the warrants from $10.00 per share to $5.00 per share. The warrants remain exercisable once the Company has received financing necessary for the commencement of commercial production at the Mt. Hope project and will expire one year thereafter. It will also become exercisable in the event of certain corporate reorganizations. The foregoing description of the Coghill amended and restated warrants is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the warrants, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.2 and 10.3 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
On April 19, 2010, the Company issued a press release announcing the Consent and Waiver Agreement and Extension Agreement with ArcelorMittal and the amended and restated Coghill warrants. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

F. The Bridge Loan Agreement (the Bridge Loan Agreement ) entered into on March 5, 2010, by and among the Company and Hanlong in connection with the Hanlong Purchase Agreement, provides that the Company must deliver an executed copy of this Consent to Hanlong within 45 days of March 5, 2010 as a condition to any extension of credit thereunder.

AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

This waiver and the exercise by ArcelorMittal of, or any failure of ArcelorMittal to exercise, its one-time right with respect to the Common Stock Transaction (defined below), shall not prejudice or limit the future rights of ArcelorMittal under the Securities Purchase Agreement in connection with any future issuance of the Companys capital stock other than pursuant to the Hanlong Purchase Agreement.
2. Purchase of Additional Common Stock .
(a) The first time after the date hereof that the Company proposes to issue, other than pursuant to the Hanlong Purchase Agreement, more than 10,000,000 shares of the Common Stock (the Common Stock Transaction ), ArcelorMittal shall have a one-time right to purchase, in accordance with the provisions set forth below, such number of shares of Common Stock as necessary to ensure that ArcelorMittal holds a ten percent (10%) ownership in the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company (on a fully diluted basis) immediately after the completion of the Common Stock Transaction.
(b) Within 30 days of the proposed closing of the Common Stock Transaction, the Company shall provide written notice to ArcelorMittal describing all material terms of the Common Stock Transaction, including the proposed range of issue prices and all other material terms upon which the Company proposes to issue such Common Stock. At least three business days prior to the closing of the Common Stock Transaction, the Company shall provide written notice to ArcelorMittal setting forth the actual issue price of the Common Stock Transaction and ArcelorMittal shall have 10 days from the receipt of such notice to agree to purchase all or a portion of the Common Stock it is permitted to purchase pursuant to subsection (a) above, for the same issue price payable in cash, by giving written notice to the Company and stating the quantity of shares of Common Stock that ArcelorMittal is intending to purchase.
(c) The completion of the purchase and sale of such Common Stock shall occur on a date specified by the Company, with at least three days prior notice to Arcelor, that is within fifteen days after the closing of the Common Stock Transaction.
(d) The rights of ArcelorMittal set forth in this Section 2 shall terminate and be of no future force or effect if ArcelorMittal (i) exercises such rights in connection with the Common Stock Transaction, or (ii) fails to exercise such rights in connection with the Common Stock Transaction.
3. Consent . Pursuant to Sections 6.3(b) and 9.3 of the Securities Purchase Agreement, ArcelorMittal hereby consents to the transactions contemplated by the Hanlong Purchase Agreement, including without limitation, the issuance of the Common Stock pursuant to the Hanlong Purchase Agreement at a price per share that may be lower than the market value of such shares.

Promptly following the determination by the Companys Board of Directors that the Funding has been completed, the Company shall provide notice to the Holder that such determination has been made.
The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective under the 1933 Act as promptly as practicable after filing thereof with the SEC, but in no event later than (i) 120 days after the Filing Date in the event that the SEC has notified the Company that it will not review the Registration Statement or (ii) 150 days after the Filing Date in the event that the SEC has notified the Company that it will review the Registration Statement (the date under either (i) or (ii) is referred to as the Effective Date ).

If at any time during the Registration Statement Effective Period there is not an effective registration statement covering all of the Registrable Securities and the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the 1933 Act of any of its equity securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the 1933 Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with the stock option or other employee benefit plans, then the Company shall send to Holder a written notice of such determination and, if within five (5) business days after the date of such notice, Holder shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such registration statement all or any part of such Registrable Securities Holder requests to be registered; provided, however, that, the Company shall not be required to register any Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 8 that are eligible for
resale without regard to volume limitations pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act or that are the subject of a then effective registration statement; provided further, that it shall be a condition to the inclusion of such Registrable Securities on such registration statement that Holder agrees to the same terms and conditions regarding method of sale applicable to the securities otherwise being sold through such registration.
Promptly upon any registration statement filed pursuant to this Section 8 being declared effective by the SEC, the Company will file a related form of final prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b) promulgated under the 1933 Act.
Holder agrees to indemnify the Company, the Companys officers, directors, employees, and agents, and each underwriter and selling broker, if any, and each person and/or entity, if any, who controls or is controlled by the Company, against liability (including liability under the 1933 Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the 1934 Act ) arising by reason of any breach of any representation, warranty, or covenant made by Holder in this Warrant and/or any statement contained in the Registration Statement, that Holder provided to the Company in writing explicitly for use in the Registration Statement, being false or misleading or omitting to state a material fact necessary to be stated in order that the statements made in the Registration Statement, in the circumstances in which they are made, not be misleading; provided that in no event will the aggregate amount Holder is required to pay pursuant to such indemnification obligations exceed the greater of the aggregate purchase price paid by Holder hereunder and the amount of the net proceeds received by Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation. The Company hereby agrees to indemnify Holder, its officers and directors, and each person, if any, who controls the Holder against liability (including liability under the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act) arising by reason of (i) any statement (other than a statement provided by Holder as described above) in or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement being false or misleading or omitting to state a material fact necessary to be stated in order that the statements made in or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, in the circumstances in which they are made, not be misleading, (ii) any violation by the Company of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, any state securities laws or any rule or regulation promulgated under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or any state securities laws in connection with the Registration Statement, or (iii) any breach of any covenant made by the Company in this Warrant.
If a claim for indemnification under this Section 8 is unavailable (by reason of public policy or otherwise) or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses referred to herein, then each indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material fact, was taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the parties
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any losses shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth herein, any reasonable attorneys or other reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any proceeding to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for herein was available to such party in accordance with its terms.
Upon receipt of a notice (a Suspension Notice ) from the Company of the happening of any event that makes any statement made in the Registration Statement or related prospectus untrue or which requires the making of any changes in such Registration Statement or prospectus so that they will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein in light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading, Holder agrees that it shall forthwith discontinue disposition of shares pursuant to such Registration Statement until Holders receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus (which the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and distribute promptly) or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the prospectus may be resumed, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings which are incorporated by reference in the prospectus. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Warrant, upon the delivery of a Suspension Notice the Company may delay the filing of any required amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement if: (a) in the good faith and reasonable judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, disclosure of such amended information could be seriously detrimental to the Company, and the Board of Directors of the Company concludes, as a result, that it is in the best interest of the Company to defer the filing of such amendment or supplement at such time, and (b) the Company furnishes to Holder a certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it could be seriously detrimental to the Company for such amendment or supplement to be filed at such time and that it is, therefore, in the best interest of the Company to defer the filing of such amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement; provided, however, that (i) the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than thirty (30) days, (ii) the Company shall not defer its obligation in this manner more than two times and (iii) the Registration Statement Effective Period shall be extended for the amount of time that the Registration Statement is unavailable due to such a deferral. The Company shall be permitted to enter stop transfer instructions with the Companys transfer agent with respect to the Registrable Securities during any period under which a Suspension Notice shall be in effect.
The provisions of this Section 8 shall terminate with respect to any particular Registrable Securities when such Registrable Securities shall have been sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the intended method of disposition set forth in the Registration Statement.
As long as the Holder owns any Registrable Securities, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to file all required reports with the SEC, or otherwise make available adequate current public information about itself, within the meaning of Rule 144(c) under the 1933 Act, to potentially make available to the Holder the benefits of certain rules and
regulations of the SEC which may permit the sale of the Registrable Securities without registration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that a holder of Registrable Securities may dispose of such Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement, the Company shall not be liable to any such holder for any breach of the provisions of this Section 8.
A restrictive legend shall be placed upon each share certificate acquired upon exercise of this Warrant in substantially the following form:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AMENDED (THE 1933 ACT),
OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF (I) SUCH REGISTRATION OR (II) AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM AND, IF REQUESTED BY THE COMPANY, AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY TO THE EFFECT THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED
The foregoing legend will be removed from the certificates representing any Warrant Shares, at the request of the holder thereof, at such time as they become the subject of an effective resale registration statement or they become eligible for resale without regard to the volume limitations or other limitations on manner of sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933 Act; provided, that Holder consents to the entry by the Company of stop transfer instructions with the Companys transfer agent during any period under which a notice from the Company of the happening of any event that makes any statement made in such resale registration statement or related prospectus untrue or which requires the making of any changes in such resale registration statement or prospectus so that they will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein in light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading shall be in effect.
then, and in each such case, the Company will provide written notice (an Event Notice ) to the Holder at least ten (10) days prior to (i) the record date in the case of (a) above, specifying the record date and the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right, and (ii) the effective date of any event specified in clause (b), (c), (d) or (e) above, specifying the effective date on which such event is to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which the holders of record of Common Stock will be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such event, if applicable. Any failure to mail an Event Notice required by this Section 14 or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof will not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such Event Notice. Nothing herein shall prohibit the Holder from exercising this Warrant during the ten day period commencing on the date of an Event Notice, provided that such exercise occurs prior to the Expiration Time and the Holder otherwise complies with the terms hereof.

GENERAL MOLY ANNOUNCES ARCELORMITTAL TO WAIVE ANTI-DILUTION RIGHTS FOR HANLONG TRANSACTION
GENERAL MOLY GRANTS AN OPTION FOR AN EXTENSION MOLYBDENUM SUPPLY AGREEMENT
LAKEWOOD, COLORADO April 19, 2010, General Moly (NYSE Amex and TSX: GMO) announced that the Company and ArcelorMittal have entered into a Consent and Waiver Agreement (the Agreement) whereby ArcelorMittal will waive its anti-dilution rights with respect to the Companys proposed issuance of stock under the Hanlong investment announced March 5, 2010. ArcelorMittal will retain anti-dilution rights for future issuances of Company stock outside of shares sold under the Hanlong investment.
ArcelorMittal and the Company have also entered into an Extension Molybdenum Supply Agreement (the Extension Agreement). The Extension Agreement provides ArcelorMittal a five-year option to make effective an agreement to purchase from General Moly 3 million pounds of molybdenum per year for 10 years following the expiration of the current 5 year, 6.5 million annual pound agreement. This additional optional off-take will be priced in alignment with the Companys existing supply agreements.
In order for ArcelorMittal to exercise this option and make the Extension Agreement effective, ArcelorMittal must have beneficial ownership of more than 11,100,000 shares of General Moly Common Stock on or prior to April 15, 2015. ArcelorMittal is currently the Companys largest shareholder and owns 8,256,699 shares originating from a November 2007 private placement.
Bruce D. Hansen, Chief Executive Officer of General Moly said, We appreciate ArcelorMittals support for the Hanlong transaction and our continued strong relationship with ArcelorMittal as both a significant shareholder and off-take partner. This arrangement meets our needs in regard to the Hanlong transaction while avoiding the additional dilution that would have resulted from an exercise of ArcelorMittals anti-dilution rights.
Pursuant to the terms of the Bridge Loan between the Company and Hanlong, the Company was required to obtain ArcelorMittals election with regard to its anti-dilution rights and Hanlong was required to obtain approval from the Sichuan Branch of the Chinese State Administration of Foreign Exchange (SAFE), prior to the first $10 million tranche of the Bridge Loan becoming effective. With the completion of the Consent and Waiver Agreement, both of these conditions have been met and the Company anticipates drawing the first tranche of the Bridge Loan within the next two weeks.
The Companys second largest shareholder, Coghill Capital Management, provided substantial advice and support to the Company in completing the two agreements with ArcelorMittal. In recognition of that support, the Company is amending the warrant to purchase one million shares of General Moly originally issued to Coghill Capital Management in connection with the November 2007 ArcelorMittal private placement and moly supply agreement to reduce the exercise price of that warrant from $10.00 per share to $5.00 per share. The warrant remains exercisable once General Moly has received financing necessary for the commencement of commercial production at the Mt. Hope project and will expire one year thereafter. It will also become exercisable in the event of certain corporate reorganizations.
* * * *
General Moly is a U.S.-based molybdenum mineral development, exploration and mining company listed on the NYSE Amex (formerly the American Stock Exchange) and the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol GMO. Our primary asset, our interest in the Mt. Hope project located in central Nevada, is considered one of the worlds largest and highest grade molybdenum deposits. Combined with our second molybdenum property, the Liberty project that is also located in central Nevada, our goal is to become the largest primary molybdenum producer by the middle of the next decade.
