DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE

The Annual Information Form (AIF) of Cardero Resource Corp. (the Registrant or the Company) for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2007 is incorporated herein by reference.

The audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the years ended October 31, 2007 and 2006, including the report of the auditors with respect thereto, are incorporated herein by reference.  For a reconciliation of important differences between Canadian and United States generally accepted accounting principles, see Note 13 to the Companys audited consolidated financial statements.

The Companys managements discussion and analysis (MD&A) for the year ended October 31, 2007 is incorporated herein by reference.

EXPLANATORY NOTE

The Company is a Canadian issuer eligible to file its annual report pursuant to Section 13 of the Exchange Act on Form 40-F.  The Company is a foreign private issuer as defined in Rule 3b-4 under the Exchange Act.  Accordingly, the Companys equity securities are exempt from Sections 14(a), 14(b), 14(c), 14(f) and 16 of the Exchange Act pursuant to Rule 3a12-3.

The Company is permitted, under a multi-jurisdictional disclosure system adopted by the United States, to prepare this annual report on Form 40-F in accordance with Canadian disclosure requirements, which are different from those of the United States.

The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting practices (GAAP), and they may be subject to Canadian auditing and auditor independence standards.  Accordingly, the financial statements of the Company included in this report may not be comparable to financial statements of United States companies.  Significant differences between Canadian GAAP and United States GAAP are described in Note 13to the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company included in this report.

Unless otherwise indicated, all dollar amounts are reported in Canadian dollars.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report contains forward-looking statements concerning anticipated developments in the operations of the Company in future periods, planned exploration and development activities, the adequacy of the Companys financial resources and other events or conditions that may occur in the future.  Forward-looking statements are frequently, but not always, identified by words such as expects, anticipates, believes, intends, estimates, potential, possible and similar expressions, or statements that events, conditions or results will, may, could or should occur or be achieved.  Information concerning the interpretation of drill results and mineral resource estimates also may be deemed to be forward-looking statements, as such information constitutes a prediction of what mineralization might be found to be present if and when a project is actually developed.  Forward-looking statements are statements about the future and are inherently uncertain, and actual achievements of the Company or other future events or conditions may differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking statements due to a variety of risks, uncertainties and other factors, including, without limitation, those described in the AIF.

The Companys forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs, expectations and opinions of management on the date the statements are made and the Company assumes no obligation to update such forward-looking statements in the future.  For the reasons set forth above, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.
