This Registration Statement relates to up to (i) 8,681,890 common share purchase warrants of the Registrant (the "New Warrants") which will be issued to holders of the Registrant's First Warrants, Series A Warrants, Series B Warrants, Series C Warrants and U.S. Dollar Warrants (collectively, the "Warrants") upon exercise of the Warrants during the Early Exercise Period (see the Registrant's short form prospectus), which may be issued if the Warrant Amendments (see "Warrant Amendments" in the Registrant's short form prospectus) are approved by the requisite votes of the holders of the Common Shares and Warrants of the Registrant (see "Warrant Amendments—Shareholder Meeting" and "—Warrantholder Meeting" in the Registrant's short form prospectus), (ii) up to 8,681,890 Common Shares (the "Warrant Shares") which may be issued upon exercise of the New Warrants (see "Plan of Distribution" in the Registrant's short form prospectus) and (iii) 1,500,000 New Warrants and 13,000,000 common shares of the Registrant (the "Exchange Shares") which may be issued to holders of the Warrants under certain circumstances (see "Warrant Amendments" in the Registrant's short form prospectus).

Estimated solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee in accordance with Rule 457(a). The exercise price of one New Warrant will be equal to 150% of the volume weighted average trading price of the Common Shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange for the five trading days ending on the last trading day of the Early Exercise Period, rounded to the nearest $0.215 (C$0.25). If at least 662/3% of any series of Warrants is exercised during the Early Exercise Period, the remaining holders of that class of Warrant will receive, in exchange for their Warrants, without further action on the part of the holder and for no additional consideration or payment of the applicable exercise price a fraction of an Exchange Share and a fraction of a New Warrant (see "Warrant Amendments" in the Registrant's short form prospectus). The average of high and low prices of the Registrant's Common Shares on the New York Stock Exchange on March 17, 2006 was $27.905. For purposes of this table, the Maximum Aggregate Offering Price of the New Warrants and the exercise price of the New Warrants has been converted on the basis of the noon buying rate certified by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on March 17, 2006 of C$1.1627 per US dollar.

THE REGISTRANT HEREBY AMENDS THIS REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON SUCH DATE OR DATES AS MAY BE NECESSARY TO DELAY ITS EFFECTIVE DATE UNTIL THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT SHALL BECOME EFFECTIVE AS PROVIDED IN RULE 467 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 OR ON SUCH DATE AS THE COMMISSION, ACTING PURSUANT TO SECTION 8(a) OF THE ACT, MAY DETERMINE.

Issue of up to 8,681,890 New Warrants upon Early Exercise
of Common Share Purchase Warrants

This short form prospectus (this "Prospectus") is being filed by Goldcorp Inc. ("Goldcorp" or the "Corporation") to qualify the distribution of up to 8,681,890 common share purchase warrants of the Corporation (the "New Warrants") issuable to the holders of the following outstanding common share purchase warrants of the Corporation upon the early exercise of their respective warrants:

Series of Warrants

Series B Warrants   5,130,586

(the First Warrants, the Series A Warrants, the Series B Warrants, the Series C Warrants and the U.S. Dollar Warrants are collectively referred to herein as the "Warrants").

Each New Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one common share of the Corporation (each a "Common Share" and collectively the "Common Shares") at a price equal to 150% of the volume weighted average trading price (the "VWAP") of the Common Shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") for the five trading days ending on the last trading day of the Early Exercise Period (as defined herein) (the "Early Exercise Expiry Date"), rounded to the nearest $0.25, at any time before 5:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on the date which is five years following the Early Exercise Expiry Date, subject to adjustment in certain events.

The following table sets forth certain details regarding each series of Warrants:

Series of Warrants
   Expiry Date(1)
   Exercise Basis per Warrant
   Exercise Price per Warrant
   Effective
Exercise Price per Share
First Warrants   May 13, 2009   2.08 Common Shares   C$ 20.00   C$ 9.62

(1)
The Warrants expire at 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the respective expiry dates.

The holders of the Warrants are collectively referred to herein as the "Warrantholders".

The First Warrants are governed by the terms of an amended and restated common share purchase warrant indenture dated as of August 1, 2005 (the "First Warrant Indenture") between the Corporation and CIBC Mellon Trust Company (the "Warrant Agent"). The Series A Warrants are governed by the terms of a common share purchase warrant indenture dated as of April 15, 2005 (the "Series A Warrant Indenture") between the Corporation and the Warrant Agent. The Series B Warrants are governed by the terms of a common share purchase warrant indenture dated as of April 15, 2005 (the "Series B Warrant Indenture") between the Corporation and the Warrant Agent. The Series C Warrants are governed by the terms of a common share purchase warrant indenture dated as of April 15, 2005 (the "Series C Warrant Indenture") between the Corporation and the Warrant Agent. The U.S. Dollar Warrants are governed by the terms of an amended and restated common share purchase warrant indenture dated as of August 1, 2005 (the "U.S. Dollar Warrant Indenture", and collectively with the First Warrant Indenture, the Series A Warrant Indenture, the Series B Warrant Indenture and the Series C Warrant Indenture, the "Warrant Indentures") between the Corporation and the Warrant Agent.

Subject to the Corporation receiving all required approvals, including the requisite approval of the Warrantholders to amend the respective Warrant Indentures that govern the Warrants (the amendments to the Warrant Indentures are collectively referred to herein as the "Warrant Amendments") and the requisite approval of the shareholders of the Corporation (the "Shareholders") to issue the New Warrants, each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire the number of underlying Common Shares otherwise issuable upon the exercise of the respective Warrants and a fraction of a New Warrant as set forth in the table below, in the event that such holder exercises such holder's Warrants during a period of 30 days (the "Early Exercise Period") following the date of the Warrant Amendments.

Series of Warrants
   Fraction of a New Warrant for Each Warrant Exercised during Early Exercise Period
First Warrants   0.44
Series A Warrants   0.01
Series B Warrants   0.08
Series C Warrants   0.01
U.S. Dollar Warrants   0.32

The Warrant Amendments will be effected pursuant to the terms of supplemental warrant indentures (collectively, the "Supplemental Indentures") to be entered into between the Corporation and the Warrant Agent. This Prospectus also qualifies the distribution of the rights to acquire the New Warrants to the Warrantholders pursuant to the Warrant Amendments in certain of the provinces and territories of Canada.

(continued on next page)

The Warrant Amendment for each series of Warrants is conditional upon the approval of the Warrant Amendment for such series of Warrants by the respective Warrantholders and the approval of the issuance of the New Warrants by the Shareholders.

The Supplemental Indentures shall also provide that, in the event that at least 662/3% of the Warrants outstanding on the date of the Warrant Amendments of any series of Warrants are exercised during the Early Exercise Period, any Warrants of such series that have not been voluntarily exercised during the Early Exercise Period will be exchanged, without any further action on the part of the holder thereof, including payment of the exercise price thereof or any other additional consideration, for (a) a fraction of a Common Share equal to the following: (i) the five day VWAP ending on the Early Exercise Expiry Date (the "Five Day VWAP"), multiplied by the exercise basis of the applicable Warrants (the "Exercise Basis"), minus the exercise price of the applicable Warrants, divided by (ii) the Five Day VWAP; and (b) a fraction of a New Warrant as follows: 0.22 of a New Warrant for each First Warrant, 0.005 of a New Warrant for each Series A Warrant, 0.04 of a New Warrant for each Series B Warrant, 0.005 of a New Warrant for each Series C Warrant and 0.16 of a New Warrant for each U.S. Dollar Warrant. The Common Shares and New Warrants issuable in exchange for Warrants not voluntarily exercised during the Early Exercise Period are collectively referred to herein as the "Exchange Shares" and the "Exchange Warrants", respectively. Any Warrants to be exchanged for Exchange Shares and Exchange Warrants shall be automatically exchanged immediately following 5:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on the Early Exercise Expiry Date, and shall immediately thereafter be cancelled and be of no further force or effect. This Prospectus is also being filed to qualify the distribution of up to 13 million Exchange Shares and up to 1.5 million Exchange Warrants. See "Plan of Distribution".

In addition, this Prospectus is being filed to register, in the United States, under the multijurisdictional disclosure system, the New Warrants, the Exchange Shares, the Exchange Warrants and the Common Shares underlying the New Warrants. Where the context permits, the New Warrants, the Exchange Shares, the Exchange Warrants and the Common Shares underlying the New Warrants are collectively referred to herein as the "Subject Securities".

No agency fee will be paid by Goldcorp in connection with the distribution of the Subject Securities being qualified under this Prospectus. GMP Securities L.P. ("GMP") and BMO Nesbitt Burns Inc. ("BMO NB" and collectively with GMP the "Financial Advisors") are acting as financial advisors to the Corporation in connection with the issuance of the New Warrants and will be paid a fee for acting as financial advisors. See "Plan of Distribution".

BMO NB is the subsidiary of the Canadian chartered bank that currently provides a credit facility to the Corporation. Accordingly, under applicable Canadian securities legislation, the Corporation may be considered to be a "connected issuer" to such Financial Advisor. See "Plan of Distribution".

Investing in the Subject Securities involves risks that are described in this Prospectus under "Risk Factors".

Generally, these forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "plans", "expects" or "does not expect", "is expected", "budget", "scheduled", "estimates", "forecasts", "intends", "anticipates" or "does not anticipate", or "believes", or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might" or "will be taken", "occur" or "be achieved". Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements of Goldcorp to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including but not limited to: risks related to the integration of acquisitions; risks related to international operations; risks related to joint venture operations; actual results of current exploration activities; actual results of current reclamation activities; conclusions of

economic evaluations; changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined; future prices of gold, silver and copper; possible variations in ore reserves, grade or recovery rates; failure of plant, equipment or processes to operate as anticipated; accidents, labour disputes and other risks of the mining industry; delays in obtaining governmental approvals or financing or in the completion of development or construction activities, as well as those factors discussed in the section entitled "Description of the Business — Risk Factors" in Goldcorp's renewal annual information form for the year ended December 31, 2005 filed on SEDAR incorporated by reference in this Prospectus and Goldcorp's Annual Report on Form 40-F filed with the SEC. Although Goldcorp has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that could cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Goldcorp does not undertake to update any forward-looking statements that are contained in this Prospectus or the documents incorporated by reference herein, except in accordance with applicable securities laws.

Recent Developments

Barrick-Placer Dome Transaction

        On October 31, 2005, Goldcorp announced that it had entered into an agreement with Barrick to acquire certain mining assets and interests of Placer Dome in the event that Barrick is successful in its bid to acquire Placer Dome. The Placer Dome assets to be acquired (collectively, the "Placer Dome Assets") include the Campbell mine in Ontario and the Porcupine and Musselwhite joint ventures in Ontario, Placer Dome's Canadian exploration properties, 100% of Placer Dome's 50% interest in the La Coipa gold-silver mine in Chile, and a 40% interest in the Pueblo Viejo development project in the Dominican Republic. The consummation of this transaction is expected to increase Goldcorp's annual gold production by approximately 50% to approximately 2 million ounces at a total cash cost of less than $150 per ounce. Proven and probable gold reserves are expected to increase by 72%.

        On December 22, 2005, Goldcorp confirmed its previous agreement to acquire the Placer Dome Assets from Barrick upon successful completion of the proposed Barrick-Placer Dome transaction. The purchase price payable by Goldcorp will be $1.485 billion in cash, subject to adjustment. In order to fund the proposed acquisition of the Placer Dome Assets, Goldcorp intends to use a portion of its current cash balances and credit facilities of $1.4 billion. Closing of the acquisition is subject to execution of certain definitive agreements and receipt of all regulatory approvals and third-party consents. Goldcorp anticipates that it will acquire the Placer Dome Assets from Barrick in April 2006.

Virginia Transaction

        Goldcorp has entered into an agreement with Virginia Gold Mines Inc. ("Virginia") to acquire Virginia's Éléonore gold project in James Bay, Québec pursuant to a plan of arrangement. Goldcorp will issue approximately 19.6 million Common Shares to complete the transaction. Closing of the transaction is subject to execution of definitive agreements, approval by Virginia shareholders, court approval and receipt of all regulatory approvals. Goldcorp anticipates that the transaction will close on or about March 31, 2006.

Amendment to the Silver Purchase Agreement

        On February 13, 2006, Goldcorp and Silver Wheaton announced that they had agreed to amend their existing silver purchase agreement in connection with an increase in Goldcorp's investment in exploration and development at its San Dimas mine in Mexico in order to increase ore production (gold and silver) at the mine by approximately 35% by 2009.

        Under the existing silver purchase agreement dated October 15, 2004, Silver Wheaton is entitled to purchase all of the silver produced by Goldcorp's Mexican operations, Luismin, for a per ounce cash payment of the lesser of $3.90 and the prevailing market price (subject to an inflationary adjustment commencing in 2007). Further, Luismin is required to deliver a minimum of 120 million ounces of silver over the 25 year contract period and Silver Wheaton is obligated to pay 50% of any capital expenditures made by Luismin at its mining operations in excess of 110% of the projected capital expenditures outlined in the agreement.

        Goldcorp and Silver Wheaton have agreed to amend the existing agreement, increasing the minimum number of ounces of silver to be delivered over the 25 year contract period by 100 million ounces, to 220 million ounces, and waiving any capital expenditure contributions previously required to be paid by Silver Wheaton. In consideration for these amendments, Silver Wheaton will issue to Goldcorp 18 million common shares, representing approximately 9.8% of the outstanding shares of Silver Wheaton, and a $20 million promissory note, increasing Goldcorp's ownership to approximately 62%, or 126 million common shares of Silver Wheaton. Closing of the transaction is conditional upon completion of definitive documentation and receipt of all requisite regulatory approvals, including the approval of the TSX.

Glencore Transaction

        On February 23, 2006, Silver Wheaton announced that it had agreed to purchase 4.75 million ounces of silver per year, for a period of 20 years, from Glencore International AG ("Glencore"), equivalent to the production from Glencore's Yauliyacu mining operations in Perú. Silver Wheaton will pay an upfront payment of $285 million, comprised of $245 million in cash and a $40 million promissory note, and $3.90 per ounce of silver delivered under the contract (subject to an inflationary adjustment after three years).

        Yauliyacu is a silver-lead-zinc mine located in central Perú which has been in continuous operation for more than 100 years and is expected to produce an average of 6 million ounces of silver per year during the term of the contract. In the event that silver produced at Yauliyacu in any year totals less than 4.75 million ounces, the amount sold to Silver Wheaton in subsequent years will be increased to make up for the shortfall, so long as production allows.

        During the term of the contract, Silver Wheaton will have a right of first refusal on any future sales of silver streams from the Yauliyacu mine and a right of first offer on future sales of silver streams from any other mine currently owned by Glencore. In addition, Silver Wheaton will also have an option to extend the 20 year term of the silver purchase agreement in five year increments, on substantially the same terms as the existing agreement, subject to an adjustment related to silver price expectations at the time and other factors.

        Closing of the transaction is subject to execution of definitive agreements and receipt of all regulatory approvals and third-party consents.


WARRANT AMENDMENTS

First Warrants

First Warrant Indenture

        The First Warrants are governed by the terms of the First Warrant Indenture. The original warrant indenture governing the First Warrants was entered into in connection with the Corporation's public offering in Canada of units comprised of Common Shares and the First Warrants in May 1999.

The First Warrant Indenture is available for review under the Corporation's profile at www.sedar.com, filed on August 3, 2005.

        The First Warrant Indenture provides the First Warrantholders with the power, exercisable by "extraordinary resolution" (as hereinafter defined) to, among other things, agree with the Corporation to any modification, alteration, compromise or arrangement of the rights of First Warrantholders.

Certain United States Securities Laws Restrictions with Respect to the U.S. Dollar Warrants

        The U.S. Dollar Warrants and the Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the U.S. Dollar Warrants have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act and therefore the U.S. Dollar Warrants may only be exercised by persons in the United States or U.S. Persons that are accredited investors (as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) under the U.S. Securities Act).

Background and Reasons for the Warrant Amendments

        As of March 17, 2006, 2,998,750 First Warrants, 48,958,522 Series A Warrants, 64,132,324 Series B Warrants, 46,543,723 Series C Warrants and 3,990,100 U.S. Dollar Warrants were issued and outstanding, of which, two insiders of the Corporation held an aggregate of 81,250 Series A Warrants, representing less than one percent of the outstanding Series A Warrants, and one insider of the Corporation held 50,000 Series B Warrants, representing less than one percent of the outstanding Series B Warrants. As of March 17, 2006, 341,164,634 Common Shares were issued and outstanding, of which 232,936, representing less than one percent of the outstanding Common Shares, were held by insiders of the Corporation.

        Management of the Corporation has reviewed Goldcorp's capital structure and considered the possibility of the early exercise of the Warrants in order to simplify the capital structure of the Corporation and align the Corporation's capital needs with the proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants. The Corporation believes that the trading pattern of the Warrants is currently substantially the same as the trading pattern of the Common Shares, and that the trading price of the Warrants does not include a significant option value component in addition to the intrinsic or the "in-the-money" value of the Warrants. Further, management believes that the market for the Warrants is relatively illiquid and that it is unlikely that a liquid trading market for the Warrants will develop prior to the expiry of the Warrants. The following table compares the trading price and the intrinsic value of each series of Warrants for the 20 trading days ending on March 17, 2006.

        The Corporation believes that the transaction contemplated would have the following benefits to the Corporation, the Warrantholders and the Shareholders:

Fairness Opinions

        In connection with the proposed Warrant Amendments, the Corporation has engaged the Financial Advisors to act as financial advisors to the Corporation in connection with the issuance of the New Warrants to Warrantholders. BMO NB has provided an opinion (the "Warrantholder Fairness Opinion") as to the fairness of the issuance of the New Warrants pursuant to the Warrant Amendments, from a financial point of view, to the Warrantholders, excluding insiders of the Corporation. GMP has provided an opinion (the "Shareholder Fairness Opinion") as to the fairness of the issuance of the New Warrants, from a financial point of view, to the Shareholders, excluding insiders of the Corporation.

        BMO NB determined that the issuance of the New Warrants to Warrantholders would be fair, from a financial point of view, to the Warrantholders, excluding insiders of the Corporation, if the probable aggregate value of the Common Shares underlying each series of Warrants and the New Warrants to be issued to Warrantholders pursuant to the Supplemental Indentures following the Warrant Amendments would exceed the probable aggregate value available to the Warrantholders in respect of the Warrants if the Corporation were to maintain, in all material respects, the status quo, including its current debt and equity capital structure (the "Status Quo Alternative"). BMO NB did not take into account any tax consequences or the possibility of a tax liability in connection with the transactions proposed by the Warrant Amendments or the disposition of Warrants by the Warrantholders.

        GMP determined that the issuance of the New Warrants to Warrantholders would be fair, from a financial point of view, to the Shareholders, excluding insiders of the Corporation, if the probable aggregate value of the

15


Common Shares to Shareholders as at the date of the Shareholder Fairness Opinion, after the issuance of the New Warrants to Warrantholders, would exceed the probable aggregate value available to the Shareholders on such date under the Status Quo Alternative. GMP did not take into account any tax consequences or the possibility of a tax liability in connection with the transactions proposed by the Warrant Amendments or the disposition of Warrants by the Warrantholders.

        The Warrantholder Fairness Opinion is dated as of March 20, 2006 and was delivered to the board of directors of the Corporation. Based upon and subject to the assumptions made and the matters considered in the Warrantholder Fairness Opinion, BMO NB is of the opinion that, as of March 20, 2006, the issuance of the New Warrants pursuant to the Warrant Amendments is fair, from a financial point of view, to the Warrantholders, excluding insiders of the Corporation.

        The Shareholder Fairness Opinion is dated as of March 20, 2006 and was delivered to the board of directors of the Corporation. Based upon and subject to the assumptions made and the matters considered in the Shareholder Fairness Opinion, GMP is of the opinion that, as of March 20, 2006, the issuance of the New Warrants is fair, from a financial point of view, to the Shareholders, excluding insiders of the Corporation.

        The Warrantholder Fairness Opinion and the Shareholder Fairness Opinion are based upon a variety of factors and assumptions and must be considered as a whole. The preparation of a fairness opinion is a complex process and is not necessarily susceptible to partial analysis or summary description.

Recommendation of the Directors of the Corporation

        The material factors considered by the directors of the Corporation which provided support for the conclusion that the issuance of the New Warrants to Warrantholders is fair to Warrantholders and Shareholders, excluding insiders of the Corporation, were:

16

        In light of the number and variety of factors considered by the directors of the Corporation in connection with their evaluation of the issuance of the New Warrants, the directors did not find it practicable to assign relative weights to the foregoing factors; accordingly, they did not do so.

        In order to arrive at its recommendation, the directors of the Corporation obtained the advice of its legal counsel and the Financial Advisors, completed a detailed examination of the terms and conditions of the Warrant Amendments and completed a detailed examination of the Warrantholder Fairness Opinion and the Shareholder Fairness Opinion.

        The directors of the Corporation have determined that the issuance of the New Warrants is in the best interests of the Corporation and is fair to Warrantholders and Shareholders, excluding insiders of the Corporation. The directors of the Corporation recommend that Disinterested Warrantholders vote in favour of the Warrant Amendments and that Disinterested Shareholders vote in favour of the issuance of the New Warrants.

Warrantholder Meeting

        Pursuant to the requirements of the TSX and the respective Warrant Indentures, the issuance of the New Warrants to be issued upon the early exercise of the Warrants requires the approval of 662/3% of the votes cast by the Warrantholders of each series of Warrants, respectively, excluding insiders of the Corporation (the "Disinterested Warrantholders"), at an extraordinary meeting of Warrantholders (the "Warrantholder Meeting"). As of March 17 2006, two insiders of the Corporation held an aggregate of 81,250 Series A Warrants, representing less than one percent of the outstanding Series A Warrants, and one insider of the Corporation held 50,000 Series B Warrants, representing less than one percent of the outstanding Series B Warrants. The Warrantholder Meeting, at which there will be conducted separate votes for each Warrant Amendment by the respective Warrantholders of each series of Warrants, has been scheduled to be held on May 9, 2006.

Shareholder Meeting

        Pursuant to the requirements of the TSX, the issuance of the New Warrants to be issued upon the early exercise of the Warrants requires the approval of a majority of the votes cast by the Shareholders, excluding insiders of the Corporation and Shareholders who are also Warrantholders (the "Disinterested Shareholders"), at a special meeting of Shareholders (the "Shareholder Meeting"). As of March 17, 2006, insiders of the Corporation held an aggregate of 232,936 Common Shares, representing less than one percent of the outstanding Common Shares. The Shareholder Meeting has been scheduled to be held on April 19, 2006.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES BEING DISTRIBUTED

New Warrants

        The New Warrants will be authorized to be issued under the Supplemental Indentures amending the Warrant Indentures between the Corporation and the Warrant Agent. The terms of the New Warrants will be governed by the terms of a new warrant indenture (the "New Indenture") to be entered into between the Corporation and the Warrant Agent. The Corporation has appointed the principal transfer offices of the Warrant Agent in Vancouver, British Columbia and Toronto, Ontario as the location at which New Warrants may be surrendered for exercise or transfer. The following summary of certain provisions of the New Indenture does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the provisions of the New Indenture.

        Each New Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one Common Share at a price equal to 150% of the Five Day VWAP, rounded to the nearest $0.25, at any time before 5:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on the date which is five years following the Early Exercise Expiry Date, after which time the New Warrants will expire and become null and void. The exercise price and the number of Common Shares issuable upon exercise are both subject to adjustment in certain circumstances as more fully described below. Under the New Indenture, the Corporation will be entitled to purchase in the market, by private contract or otherwise, all or any of the New Warrants then outstanding, and any New Warrants so purchased will be cancelled.

        The New Indenture will provide for adjustment in the number of Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of the New Warrants and/or the exercise price per Common Share upon the occurrence of certain events, including:

        The New Indenture will also provide for adjustment in the class and/or number of securities issuable upon the exercise of the New Warrants and/or exercise price per security in the event of the following additional events: (1) reclassifications of the Common Shares; (2) consolidations, amalgamations, plans of arrangement or mergers of the Corporation with or into another entity (other than consolidations, amalgamations, plans of arrangement or mergers which do not result in any reclassification of the Common Shares or a change of the Common Shares into other shares); or (3) the transfer (other than to one of the Corporation's subsidiaries) of the undertaking or assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to another corporation or other entity.

        No adjustment in the exercise price or the number of Common Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the New Warrants will be required to be made unless the cumulative effect of such adjustment or adjustments would change the exercise price by at least 1% or the number of Common Shares purchasable upon exercise by at least one one-hundredth of a Common Share.

19


        The Corporation will also covenant in the New Indenture that, during the period in which the New Warrants are exercisable, it will give notice to holders of New Warrants of certain stated events, including events that would result in an adjustment to the exercise price for the New Warrants or the number of Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the New Warrants, at least 14 days prior to the record date or effective date, as the case may be, of such event.

        No fractional Common Shares will be issuable upon the exercise of any New Warrants, and no cash or other consideration will be paid in lieu of fractional shares. Holders of New Warrants will not have any voting or pre-emptive rights or any other rights which a holder of Common Shares would have.

        From time to time, the Corporation and the Warrant Agent, without the consent of the holders of New Warrants, may amend or supplement the New Indenture for certain purposes, including curing defects or inconsistencies or making any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any holder of New Warrants. Any amendment or supplement to the New Indenture that adversely affects the interests of the holders of the New Warrants may only be made by "extraordinary resolution", which is defined in the New Indenture as a resolution either (1) passed at a meeting of the holders of New Warrants at which there are holders of New Warrants present in person or represented by proxy representing at least 25% of the aggregate number of all of the then outstanding New Warrants and passed by the affirmative vote of holders of New Warrants representing not less than 662/3% of the aggregate number of all of the then outstanding New Warrants represented at the meeting and voted on the poll upon such resolution or (2) adopted by an instrument in writing signed by the holders of New Warrants representing not less than 662/3% of the aggregate number of all of the then outstanding New Warrants.

        Reference is made to the New Indenture for the full extent of the attributes of the New Warrants. A copy of the New Indenture will be available for review under Goldcorp's profile at www.sedar.com following the Early Exercise Expiry Date.

Common Shares

        The authorized share capital of the Corporation consists of an unlimited number of Common Shares. As at March 17, 2006, 341,164,634 Common Shares were issued and outstanding. Holders of Common Shares are entitled to receive notice of any meetings of Shareholders, to attend and to cast one vote per Common Share at all such meetings. Holders of Common Shares do not have cumulative voting rights with respect to the election of directors and, accordingly, holders of a majority of the Common Shares entitled to vote in any election of directors may elect all directors standing for election. Holders of Common Shares are entitled to receive on a pro-rata basis such dividends, if any, as and when declared by the Corporation's board of directors at its discretion from funds legally available therefor and upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation are entitled to receive on a pro-rata basis the net assets of the Corporation after payment of debts and other liabilities, in each case subject to the rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions attaching to any other series or class of shares ranking senior in priority to or on a pro-rata basis with the holders of Common Shares with respect to dividends or liquidation. The Common Shares do not carry any pre-emptive, subscription, redemption or conversion rights, nor do they contain any sinking or purchase fund provisions.


USE OF PROCEEDS

        Assuming that all of the outstanding Warrants are exercised during the Early Exercise Period, and that no adjustment based on the anti-dilution provisions contained in the Warrant Indentures has taken place, the gross proceeds to the Corporation will be approximately $460 million (approximately C$530 million based on an exchange rate of US$1.00=C$1.1589), and the net proceeds to the Corporation (after deducting the expenses of the distribution, including expenses relating to the preparation and filing of this Prospectus as well as financial advisory fees, estimated to be C$5.2 million) will be approximately C$525 million. In the event that less than all of the Warrants are exercised during the Early Exercise Period, and, as a result, the Corporation issues Exchange Shares and Exchange Warrants for the remaining Warrants the proceeds to the Corporation will be less than the proceeds that would have been received had all Warrants been exercised during the Early Exercise Period.

20


        The net proceeds to the Corporation from the early exercise of the Warrants will be used by the Corporation to repay debt. The Corporation's actual use of the net proceeds may vary depending on the Corporation's operating and capital needs from time to time.


PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

New Warrants

        This Prospectus is being filed to qualify the distribution of up to 8,681,890 New Warrants issuable to Warrantholders upon the exercise of Warrants during the Early Exercise Period. The New Warrants qualified by this Prospectus will only be issued to a Warrantholder if such Warrantholder exercises its Warrants during the Early Exercise Period. This Prospectus also qualifies the distribution of the rights to acquire the New Warrants to the Warrantholders pursuant to the Warrant Amendments in each of the provinces and territories of Canada.

Exchange Shares and Exchange Warrants

        This Prospectus is also being filed to qualify the distribution of the Exchange Shares and the Exchange Warrants issuable to Warrantholders in exchange for Warrants not voluntarily exercised during the Early Exercise Period. The Exchange Shares and the Exchange Warrants qualified by this Prospectus will only be issued if not less than 662/3% of each series of Warrants are exercised during the Early Exercise Period. In the event that at least 662/3% of the Warrants outstanding on the date of the Warrant Amendments of any series of Warrants are exercised during the Early Exercise Period, any such Warrants that have not been voluntarily exercised during the Early Exercise Period will be exchanged, without any further action on the part of the holder thereof, including payment of the exercise price thereof or any other additional consideration, for (a) a fraction of a Common Share equal to the following: (i) the Five Day VWAP, multiplied by the Exercise Basis, minus the exercise price of the applicable Warrants, divided by (ii) the Five Day VWAP; and (b) a fraction of a New Warrant as follows: 0.22 of a New Warrant for each First Warrant, 0.005 of a New Warrant for each Series A Warrant, 0.04 of a New Warrant for each Series B Warrant, 0.005 of a New Warrant for each Series C Warrant and 0.16 of a New Warrant for each U.S. Dollar Warrant. Any Warrants to be exchanged for Exchange Shares and Exchange Warrants shall be automatically exchanged immediately following 5:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on the Early Exercise Expiry Date, and shall immediately thereafter be cancelled and be of no further force or effect. This Prospectus is also being filed to qualify the distribution of up to 13 million Exchange Shares and up to 1.5 million Exchange Warrants.

Fractional New Warrants

        The Corporation will not be obliged to issue any fractional New Warrants or any cash or other consideration in lieu thereof upon the exercise of one or more Warrants. To the extent that the holder of one or more Warrants would otherwise have been entitled to receive upon the exercise of a Warrant a fraction of a New Warrant, that holder may exercise that right in respect of the fraction only in combination with another Warrant or Warrants that in the aggregate entitle the holder to acquire a whole number of New Warrants.

Certificates Representing New Warrants

        If, as and when issued, certificates representing the New Warrants will be registered in the name of the Warrantholder of record maintained by the Warrant Agent at its principal offices in Vancouver, British Columbia and Toronto, Ontario, and will be delivered to such registered Warrantholder at the address of record.

Financial Advisors

        In connection with the proposed issuance of the New Warrants, the Corporation engaged the Financial Advisors to provide, among other things, the Warrantholder Fairness Opinion and the Shareholder Fairness Opinion to the directors of the Corporation as to the fairness of the issuance of the New Warrants pursuant to the Warrant Amendments, from a financial point of view, to the Warrantholders and the Shareholders, respectively, excluding insiders of the Corporation. See "Fairness Opinions". In addition to providing the Warrantholder Fairness Opinion and the Shareholder Fairness Opinion, the general services covered by the Financial Advisors' engagement include providing analysis and advice to the Corporation in connection with

21


the Warrant Amendments, assisting management with marketing and participating in the preparation and review of documentation in connection with the Warrant Amendments. The Corporation has agreed to pay to GMP and BMO NB certain financial advisory fees in the amount of C$2,000,000 and C$2,000,000, respectively.

        The Corporation and each of GMP and BMO NB entered into fiscal advisory agreements (the "Fiscal Advisory Agreements") dated as of    •    , 2006 in connection with the distribution of the New Warrants and the acquisition of the Placer Dome Assets. The Fiscal Advisory Agreements provide, among other things, that the Corporation will indemnify GMP and BMO NB and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents against certain liabilities and expenses or will contribute to payments that GMP or BMO NB may be required to make in respect thereof.

        In connection with the distribution of the New Warrants, the Corporation may be considered to be a "connected issuer" to BMO NB (the "Connected Advisor") under applicable securities legislation. A Canadian chartered bank which is an affiliate of the Connected Advisor is a lender to Goldcorp under a current credit facility (the "Credit Facility"). As at the date of this Prospectus, a total of approximately $20 million was outstanding under the Credit Facility. As at the date of this Prospectus, Goldcorp is in compliance with the terms and conditions of the Credit Facility.

Listing of New Warrants

        The Corporation has applied to list the New Warrants on the TSX and the NYSE. Listing will be subject to the Corporation fulfilling all the listing requirements of the TSX and the NYSE. The Corporation has applied to list the Subject Securities on the NYSE. In the event that a significant number, but less than 662/3%, of the Warrants are exercised, there is no assurance that the Corporation will continue to meet the continued listing requirements of the TSX and the NYSE (in the case of the Series A Warrants and the Series C Warrants only) in respect of the listing of the Warrants and, in such case, the Warrants may be de-listed by the TSX or the NYSE, as the case may be.

CANADIAN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

        In the opinion of Cassels Brock & Blackwell LLP, counsel to the Corporation, and Wildeboer Dellelce LLP, counsel to the Financial Advisors, the following is a summary of the principal Canadian federal income tax considerations as of the date hereof generally applicable under the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "Tax Act") to a Warrantholder who, for purposes of the Tax Act, deals at arm's length and is not affiliated with the Corporation and holds the Warrants, and will hold any Common Shares and New Warrants, as capital property. Generally, Warrants, New Warrants and Common Shares will be considered to be capital property to a Warrantholder provided that the Warrantholder does not hold such securities in the course of carrying on a business and has not acquired them in one or more transactions considered to be an adventure in the nature of trade.

        This summary is not applicable to a Warrantholder that is a "financial institution" (for purposes of the mark-to-market rules), a "specified financial institution" or a Warrantholder an interest in which is a "tax shelter investment" (all as defined in the Tax Act). In addition, this summary does not address the deductibility of interest by a Warrantholder who has borrowed money to acquire Warrants.

        This summary is based upon the current provisions of the Tax Act and regulations thereunder in force as at the date hereof, specific proposals to amend the Tax Act and regulations thereunder that have been publicly announced by, or on behalf of, the Minister of Finance (Canada) prior to the date hereof (the "Proposed Amendments"), the current provisions of the Canada-United States Income Tax Convention (1980) (the "Convention") and counsel's understanding of the current published administrative policies and assessing practices of the Canada Revenue Agency (the "CRA"). This summary assumes that the Proposed Amendments will be enacted as currently proposed although no assurance can be given in that regard. Except as otherwise indicated, this summary does not take into account or anticipate any changes in the applicable law, whether made by judicial, governmental or legislative decision or action nor does it take into account provincial or foreign tax laws or considerations, which might differ significantly from those discussed herein.

25


        This summary is not exhaustive of all possible Canadian federal tax considerations and is not intended to be legal or tax advice to any particular Warrantholder. Warrantholders should consult their own tax advisors for advice with respect to the tax consequences based on their particular circumstances.

        For the purposes of the Tax Act, all amounts relating to the acquisition, holding or disposition of Warrants, New Warrants and Common Shares (including dividends, adjusted cost base and proceeds of disposition) must be expressed in Canadian dollars. Amounts denominated in United States dollars must be converted into Canadian dollars based on the prevailing United States dollar exchange rate generally at the time such amounts arise.

Warrantholders Resident in Canada

        The following portion of the summary is generally applicable to a Warrantholder who at all relevant times for purposes of the Tax Act and any applicable income tax treaty, is, or is deemed to be, resident in Canada (a "Canadian Warrantholder"). Certain Canadian Warrantholders whose Common Shares might not otherwise qualify as capital property may, in certain circumstances, treat their Common Shares, and all other "Canadian securities" as defined in the Tax Act, as capital property by making the irrevocable election permitted by subsection 39(4) of the Tax Act. This election does not apply to Warrants or New Warrants.

Amendment of Warrant Indentures

        Although the matter is not free from doubt, counsel is of the view that the amendments contained in the Supplemental Indentures will not constitute substantial changes to the fundamental terms of the Warrants and accordingly will not result, in and of themselves, in a disposition of the Warrants by the Warrantholders.

        In the event that the amendments contained in the Supplemental Indentures are held to be so fundamental that their adoption results in a disposition of the Warrants and an acquisition of different warrants, then the Warrantholder would realize a capital gain (or a capital loss) for the year equal to the amount by which the proceeds of disposition of the Warrants, net of any reasonable costs of disposition, exceed (or are less than) the adjusted cost base of the Warrants to the Warrantholder. The proceeds of disposition for the Warrants and the cost of any different warrants would be equal to the fair market value of the different warrants received in exchange at the time the Supplemental Indentures become effective. The taxation of capital gains and capital losses is discussed below under the heading "Capital Gains and Capital Losses".

        The remainder of this summary assumes that the amendments contained in the Supplemental Indentures, in and of themselves, will not result in a disposition of the Warrants for purposes of the Tax Act. If this assumption is not correct then the tax consequences to Warrantholders may be materially different.

Exercise of Warrants during the Early Exercise Period

        No gain or loss will be realized by a Canadian Warrantholder upon the exercise of a Warrant during the Early Exercise Period. When a Warrant is exercised during the Early Exercise Period and Common Shares are acquired, the cost to the Canadian Warrantholder of the Common Shares thus acquired will be the aggregate of the adjusted cost base, for that holder, of the Warrant and the price paid for the Common Shares upon exercise of the Warrant (see also discussion below under the heading "Receipt of New Warrants upon the Early Exercise of Warrants" for possible additional adjustments to the adjusted cost base of the Common Shares). The cost to a Canadian Warrantholder of a Common Share acquired upon the exercise of a Warrant must be averaged with the adjusted cost base (determined immediately before the exercise of the Warrant) of all other Common Shares held by the Canadian Warrantholder as capital property at the time of the exercise of the Warrant.

Receipt of New Warrants upon the Early Exercise of Warrants

        Although the matter is not free from doubt, counsel is of the view that the receipt of the New Warrants by a Canadian Warrantholder who exercises Warrants during the Early Exercise Period will not constitute the receipt of an inducement payment within the meaning of paragraph 12(1)(x) of the Tax Act by the Canadian Warrantholder. Subject to the comments below, in the event that the receipt of the New Warrants under such circumstances is considered to be such an inducement payment, then Canadian Warrantholders generally will be

26


required to include in income for the year an amount equal to the fair market value of the New Warrants received. The amount of this income inclusion would be added to the adjusted cost base of the New Warrants held by the Canadian Warrantholder. If the New Warrants are considered to be an inducement within the meaning of paragraph 12(1)(x) of the Tax Act, a Canadian Warrantholder may be entitled to make an election under subsection 53(2.1) of the Tax Act to reduce the adjusted cost base of their Common Shares rather than have an income inclusion under paragraph 12(1)(x). Canadian Warrantholders should consult with their own tax advisors regarding the possibility of making this tax election.

Disposition of Warrants to the Corporation upon Deemed Exercise

        If the amendments contained in the Supplemental Indentures are approved and holders of more than 662/3% of the outstanding Warrants exercise their Warrants during the Early Exercise Period, then the Corporation will acquire any remaining outstanding Warrants in exchange for Common Shares and New Warrants. A Canadian Warrantholder who disposes of Warrants (other than upon exercise) to the Corporation for Common Shares and New Warrants pursuant to a Supplemental Indenture will realize a capital gain (or a capital loss) equal to the amount by which the proceeds of disposition for the Warrants, net of any reasonable costs of disposition, exceed (or are less than) the adjusted cost base to the Canadian Warrantholder of the Warrants. The proceeds of disposition for such Warrants will be equal to the aggregate fair market value of the Common Shares and New Warrants received in exchange and the cost of the Common Shares and New Warrants, respectively, to the Canadian Warrantholder will be equal to the fair market value of such securities at the time of exchange.

        A Canadian Warrantholder's cost of any Common Shares acquired in exchange for Warrants must be averaged with the adjusted cost base of any other Common Shares held by the Canadian Warrantholder as capital property to determine the adjusted cost base of all the Common Shares held by that Canadian Warrantholder. The taxation of capital gains and capital losses is discussed below under the heading "Capital Gains and Capital Losses".

Exercise of Warrants and New Warrants After Early Exercise Period

        No gain or loss will be realized by a Canadian Warrantholder upon the exercise of a Warrant or a New Warrant after the Early Exercise Period. When a Warrant or New Warrant is exercised after the Early Exercise Period, the Canadian Warrantholder's cost of the Common Share acquired thereby will be the aggregate of the Canadian Warrantholder's adjusted cost base of such Warrant or New Warrant, respectively, and the exercise price paid for the Common Share upon exercise of the Warrant or New Warrant as the case may be. The Canadian Warrantholder's adjusted cost base of the Common Share so acquired will be determined by averaging such cost with the adjusted cost base to the Canadian Warrantholder of all Common Shares held by the Canadian Warrantholder as capital property immediately prior to such acquisition.

Expiry of Warrants and New Warrants

        The expiry of a Warrant or a New Warrant will generally result in a capital loss to the Canadian Warrantholder equal to the adjusted cost base of the Warrant or the New Warrant respectively, to the Canadian Warrantholder immediately before its expiry.

        Subject to the discussion above under the heading "Receipt of New Warrants upon the Early Exercise of Warrants", counsel is of the view that the cost of any New Warrants to a Canadian Warrantholder should be nil. Consequently, no loss should be realized by a Canadian Warrantholder upon the expiry of a New Warrant.

Disposition of Warrants, New Warrants and Common Shares

        In general, a disposition, or a deemed disposition, of a Warrant or New Warrant (other than on the exercise or expiry thereof) or of a Common Share will give rise to a capital gain (or a capital loss) equal to the amount by which the proceeds of disposition of the Warrant, New Warrant or Common Share, net of any reasonable costs of disposition, exceed (or are less than) the adjusted cost base to the holder of the Warrant, New Warrant or Common Share, respectively. The taxation of capital gains and capital losses is discussed below under the heading "Capital Gains and Capital Losses".

27


Capital Gains and Capital Losses

        Generally, one-half of a capital gain must be included in income as a taxable capital gain for the year of the disposition and one-half of a capital loss is an allowable capital loss. An allowable capital loss for a year normally may be deducted by the Canadian Warrantholder in computing income to the extent of any taxable capital gains for the year. Any allowable capital loss not deductible in the year may be deducted against taxable capital gains in computing taxable income for any of the three preceding years or any subsequent year (in accordance with the detailed rules contained in the Tax Act). Capital gains realized by an individual, other than certain specified trusts, will be relevant in computing possible liability under the alternative minimum tax.

        In general, in the case of a Canadian Warrantholder that is a corporation, the amount of any capital loss otherwise determined arising from a disposition or deemed disposition of Common Shares may be reduced by the amount of dividends previously received thereon to the extent and under circumstances prescribed in the Tax Act. Analogous rules apply where a corporation is, directly or through a trust or partnership, a member of a partnership or a beneficiary of a trust which owns Common Shares.

        A "Canadian-controlled private corporation" (as defined in the Tax Act) may be liable to pay an additional refundable tax of 62/3% on certain investment income, including amounts in respect of taxable capital gains (but not dividends or deemed dividends deductible in computing taxable income). This refundable tax generally will be refunded to a corporate holder at the rate of $1 for every $3 of taxable dividends paid while it is a private corporation.

Dividends

        Dividends received or deemed to be received on the Common Shares by an individual (including a trust) will be included in computing the individual's income for tax purposes and will be subject to the gross-up and dividend tax credit rules normally applicable to dividends received from taxable Canadian corporations. A Canadian Warrantholder that is a corporation will include dividends received or deemed to be received on the Common Shares in computing its income for tax purposes and generally will be entitled to deduct the amount of such dividends in computing its taxable income, with the result that no tax will be payable by it in respect of such dividends. Certain corporations, including private corporations or subject corporations (as such terms are defined in the Tax Act), may be liable to pay a refundable tax under Part IV of the Tax Act at the rate of 331/3% of the dividends received or deemed to be received on the Common Shares to the extent that such dividends are deductible in computing taxable income. This refundable tax generally will be refunded to a corporate holder at the rate of $1 for every $3 of taxable dividends paid while it is a private corporation.

Warrantholders Resident in the United States

        The following summary is generally applicable to Warrantholders who (i) for the purposes of the Tax Act have not been and will not be deemed to be resident in Canada at any time while they hold Warrants, New Warrants or Common Shares; (ii) do not use or hold the Warrants, New Warrants and Common Shares in carrying on a business in Canada; and (iii) are residents of the United States for purposes of the Convention ("U.S. Warrantholders"). Special rules, which are not discussed in this summary, may apply to a U.S. Warrantholder that is an insurer carrying on business in Canada and elsewhere.

Amendment of Warrant Indentures

        The Canadian federal income tax consequences to a U.S. Warrantholder resulting from the amendments to the Warrant Indentures are generally the same as those described above that apply to a Canadian Warrantholder.

Exercise of Warrants during the Early Exercise Period

        The Canadian federal income tax consequences to a U.S. Warrantholder of the early exercise of the Warrants are generally the same as those described above that apply to a Canadian Warrantholder.

28


Receipt of New Warrants upon the Early Exercise of Warrants

        A U.S. Warrantholder should not be subject to tax under the Tax Act in respect of the receipt of the New Warrants as consideration for the exercise of Warrants during the Early Exercise Period.

Disposition of Warrants, New Warrants and Common Shares

        A U.S. Warrantholder will not be subject to tax under the Tax Act in respect of any capital gain on the disposition of Warrants, New Warrants or Common Shares provided that such securities do not constitute, and are not deemed to constitute, "taxable Canadian property" of the U.S. Warrantholder. Generally, Warrants, New Warrants and Common Shares will not constitute taxable Canadian property of a U.S. Warrantholder provided that (i) the Common Shares are listed on a prescribed stock exchange (which includes the TSX) for the purposes of the Tax Act at the time of disposition; and (ii) at no time during the 60 month period immediately preceding the disposition of the Warrants, New Warrants or Common Shares were 25% or more of the issued shares of any class or series of the capital stock of the Corporation owned by the U.S. Warrantholder, by persons with whom the U.S. Warrantholder did not deal at arm's length, or by the U.S. Warrantholder together with such persons.

        A U.S. Warrantholder's capital gain (or capital loss) in respect of Warrants, New Warrants and Common Shares that constitute or are deemed to constitute taxable Canadian property (and are not "treaty-protected property" as defined for purposes of the Tax Act) will generally be computed in the manner described above under the headings "Warrantholders Resident in Canada — Disposition of Warrants to the Corporation upon Deemed Exercise and Disposition of Warrants, New Warrants and Common Shares".

        Even if the Warrants, New Warrants or Common Shares are taxable Canadian property to a U.S. Warrantholder, under the terms of the Convention the U.S. Warrantholder will still not be subject to tax under the Tax Act in respect of a capital gain on the disposition of such securities provided in the case of Common Shares that the value of the Common Shares is not derived principally from real property situated in Canada at the time of disposition. U.S. Warrantholders whose Warrants, New Warrants or Common Shares are taxable Canadian property should consult their own tax advisors.

Dividends

        Dividends paid or credited or deemed under the Tax Act to be paid or credited to a U.S. Warrantholder on the Common Shares generally will be subject to Canadian withholding tax at the rate of 15%. This rate is reduced to 5% in the case of a U.S. Warrantholder that is a company that owns at least 10% of the voting shares of the Corporation.


UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

        The following is a summary of the anticipated material U.S. federal income tax consequences to a U.S. Holder arising from and relating to (a) the adoption of the Warrant Amendments and the exercise or exchange of the Warrants, (b) the exercise, disposition, and lapse of the New Warrants, and (c) the acquisition, ownership and disposition of Common Shares received on the exercise of the Warrants or New Warrants.

        This summary is for general information purposes only and does not purport to be a complete analysis or listing of all potential U.S. federal income tax consequences that may apply to a U.S. Holder. In addition, this summary does not take into account the individual facts and circumstances of any particular U.S. Holder that may affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences to such U.S. Holder. Accordingly, this summary is not intended to be, and should not be construed as, legal or U.S. federal income tax advice with respect to any U.S. Holder. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own financial advisor, legal counsel, or accountant regarding the U.S. federal income, U.S. state and local, and foreign tax consequences of (a) the adoption of the Warrant Amendments and the exercise or exchange of the Warrants, (b) the exercise, disposition, and lapse of the New Warrants, and (c) the acquisition, ownership and disposition of Common Shares received on the exercise of the Warrants or New Warrants.

29


        No legal opinion from U.S. legal counsel or ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") has been requested, or will be obtained, regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders of (a) the adoption of the Warrant Amendments and the exercise or exchange of the Warrants, (b) the exercise, disposition, and lapse of the New Warrants, or (c) the acquisition, ownership and disposition of Common Shares received on the exercise of the Warrants or New Warrants. This summary is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS is not precluded from taking a position that is different from, and contrary to, the positions taken in this summary. In addition, because the authorities on which this summary is based are subject to various interpretations, the IRS and the U.S. courts could disagree with one or more of the positions taken in this summary.

Scope of this Summary

Authorities

        This summary is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), Treasury Regulations (whether final, temporary, or proposed), published rulings of the IRS, published administrative positions of the IRS, the Convention Between Canada and the United States of America with Respect to Taxes on Income and on Capital, signed September 26, 1980, as amended (the "Canada-U.S. Tax Convention"), and U.S. court decisions that are applicable and, in each case, as in effect and available, as of the date of this Prospectus. Any of the authorities on which this summary is based could be changed in a material and adverse manner at any time, and any such change could be applied on a retroactive basis. This summary does not discuss the potential effects, whether adverse or beneficial, of any proposed legislation that, if enacted, could be applied on a retroactive basis.

U.S. Holders

        For purposes of this summary, a "U.S. Holder" is a beneficial owner of Warrants, New Warrants, or Common Shares, as the case may be, that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is (a) an individual who is a citizen or resident of the U.S., (b) a corporation, or any other entity classified as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, that is created or organized in or under the laws of the U.S. or any state in the U.S., including the District of Columbia, (c) an estate if the income of such estate is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of the source of such income, or (d) a trust if (i) such trust has validly elected to be treated as a U.S. person for U.S. federal income tax purposes or (ii) a U.S. court is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of such trust and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of such trust.

Non-U.S. Holders

        For purposes of this summary, a "non-U.S. Holder" is a beneficial owner of Warrants, New Warrants, or Common Shares, as the case may be, other than a U.S. Holder. This summary does not address any U.S. federal income tax consequences to non-U.S. Holders. Accordingly, a non-U.S. Holder should consult its own financial advisor, legal counsel, or accountant regarding the U.S. federal income, U.S. state and local, and foreign tax consequences (including the potential application of and operation of any tax treaties) of (a) the adoption of the Warrant Amendments and the exercise or exchange of the Warrants, (b) the exercise, disposition, and lapse of the New Warrants, and (c) the acquisition, ownership and disposition of Common Shares received on the exercise of the Warrants or New Warrants.

U.S. Holders Subject to Special U.S. Federal Income Tax Rules Not Addressed

        This summary does not address the U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders that are subject to special provisions under the Code, including the following U.S. Holders: (a) U.S. Holders that are tax-exempt organizations, qualified retirement plans, individual retirement accounts, or other tax-deferred accounts; (b) U.S. Holders that are financial institutions, insurance companies, real estate investment trusts, or regulated investment companies; (c) U.S. Holders that are dealers in securities or currencies or U.S. Holders that are traders in securities that elect to apply a mark-to-market accounting method; (d) U.S. Holders that have a "functional currency" other than the U.S. dollar; (e) U.S. Holders that are liable for the alternative minimum tax

30


under the Code; (f) U.S. Holders that own Warrants, New Warrants, or Common Shares as part of a straddle, hedging transaction, conversion transaction, constructive sale, or other arrangement involving more than one position; (g) U.S. Holders that acquired Warrants, New Warrants, or Common Shares in connection with the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation for services; (h) U.S. Holders that hold Warrants, New Warrants, or Common Shares other than as a capital asset within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code; or (i) U.S. Holders that own (directly, indirectly, or constructively) 10% or more of the total combined voting power of the outstanding shares of Goldcorp. U.S. Holders that are subject to special provisions under the Code, including U.S. Holders described immediately above, should consult their own financial advisor, legal counsel or accountant regarding the U.S. federal income, U.S. state and local, and foreign tax consequences of (a) the adoption of the Warrant Amendments and the exercise or exchange of the Warrants, (b) the exercise, disposition, and lapse of the New Warrants, and (c) the acquisition, ownership and disposition of Common Shares received on the exercise of the Warrants or New Warrants.

        If an entity that is classified as a partnership (or "pass-through" entity) for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds Warrants, New Warrants, or Common Shares, the U.S. federal income tax consequences to such partnership (or "pass-through" entity) and the partners of such partnership (or owners of such "pass-through" entity) generally will depend on the activities of the partnership (or "pass-through" entity) and the status of such partners (or owners). Partners of entities that are classified as partnerships (or owners of "pass-through" entities) for U.S. federal income tax purposes should consult their own financial advisor, legal counsel or accountant regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of (a) the adoption of the Warrant Amendments and the exercise or exchange of the Warrants, (b) the exercise, disposition, and lapse of the New Warrants, and (c) the acquisition, ownership and disposition of Common Shares received on the exercise of the Warrants or New Warrants.

Tax Consequences Other than U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences Not Addressed

        This summary does not address any U.S. state and local, U.S. federal estate and gift, or foreign tax consequences to U.S. Holders. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own financial advisor, legal counsel, or accountant regarding the U.S. state and local, U.S. federal estate and gift, and foreign tax consequences of (a) the adoption of the Warrant Amendments and the exercise or exchange of the Warrants, (b) the exercise, disposition, and lapse of the New Warrants, and (c) the acquisition, ownership and disposition of Common Shares received on the exercise of the Warrants or New Warrants. (See "Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations" above).

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Adoption of the Warrant Amendments and the Exercise or Exchange of Warrants

        The U.S. federal income tax consequences of the adoption of the Warrant Amendments are uncertain. Under general principles of U.S. federal income tax law, if the legal rights or obligations represented by the Warrants after the adoption of the Warrant Amendments differ materially in either kind or extent from the legal rights or obligations represented by the Warrants prior to the adoption of the Warrant Amendments, a U.S. Holder generally would be deemed to exchange "old" Warrants for "new" Warrants on the date of adoption of the Warrant Amendments. Unless any such deemed exchange of "old" Warrants for "new" Warrants qualifies as a "recapitalization" within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Code (a "Recapitalization"), a U.S. Holder generally would recognize gain or loss on such deemed exchange in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between (a) the fair market value of the "new" Warrants deemed received and (b) such U.S. Holder's tax basis in the "old" Warrants deemed exchanged. Due to a lack of direct legal authority, it is unclear whether any such deemed exchange of "old" Warrants for "new" Warrants may qualify as a Recapitalization. Assuming that any such deemed exchange of "old" Warrants for "new" Warrants is properly treated as a Recapitalization, a U.S. Holder should not recognize any gain or loss on such deemed exchange. There can be no assurance, however, that the IRS will not take the position that the adoption of the Warrant Amendments is properly treated as a fully taxable deemed exchange of "old" Warrants for "new" Warrants. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own financial advisor, legal counsel, or accountant regarding whether the

31

adoption of the Warrant Amendments results in a deemed exchange of "old" Warrants for "new" Warrants and whether any such deemed exchange may qualify as a Recapitalization.

        Subject to the discussions below regarding the receipt of a New Warrant upon the exercise of a Warrant during the Early Exercise Period and the exchange of a Warrant for a Common Share and a New Warrant (without payment of the exercise price), a U.S. Holder should not recognize gain or loss on the exercise of a Warrant and related receipt of a Common Share. A U.S. Holder's initial tax basis in the Common Share received on the exercise of a Warrant should be equal to the sum of (a) such U.S. Holder's tax basis in such Warrant plus (b) the exercise price paid by such U.S. Holder on the exercise of such Warrant. A U.S. Holder's holding period for the Common Share received on the exercise of a Warrant should begin on the date that such Warrant is exercised by such U.S. Holder.

        The U.S. federal income tax consequences of the receipt of a New Warrant upon the exercise of a Warrant during the Early Exercise Period are uncertain. The IRS may take the position that the New Warrant represents a taxable fee for exercising the Warrant during the Early Exercise Period, in which case a U.S. Holder generally would recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the fair market value of the New Warrant on the date of receipt. Alternatively, the IRS may take the position that the receipt of a New Warrant should be treated as a distribution of a right to acquire stock under Section 305 of the Code, which could result in a taxable distribution to a U.S. Holder, in an amount equal to the fair market value of the New Warrant on the date of distribution, depending on the circumstances (for example, if cash is distributed to holders of the Common Shares within 36 months of the date the New Warrant is received). (See more detailed discussion of the rules applicable to distributions made by Goldcorp at "Distributions on Common Shares" below). As an additional alternative, a U.S. Holder may be treated as simultaneously purchasing a Common Share and a New Warrant upon the exercise of a Warrant during the Early Exercise Period, in which case the U.S. Holder should not be required to recognize income or gain upon the receipt of the New Warrant. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own financial advisor, legal counsel, or accountant regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the receipt of a New Warrant upon the exercise of a Warrant during the Early Exercise Period.

        The U.S. federal income tax consequences of the exchange of a Warrant for a Common Share and a New Warrant (without payment of the exercise price) are uncertain. Due to a lack of direct legal authority, it is unclear whether the exchange of a Warrant for a Common Share and a New Warrant (without payment of the exercise price) may qualify as a Recapitalization. Assuming that the exchange of a Warrant for a Common Share and a New Warrant (without payment of the exercise price) is properly treated as a Recapitalization, a U.S. Holder should not recognize any gain or loss on such exchange, a U.S. Holder's aggregate initial tax basis in the Common Share and the New Warrant received in such exchange should be equal to such U.S. Holder's tax basis in the exchanged Warrant, and a U.S. Holder's holding period for the Common Share and the New Warrant received in such exchange should include the period that such exchanged Warrant was held by such U.S. Holder. There can be no assurance, however, that the IRS will not take the position that the exchange of a Warrant for a Common Share and a New Warrant (without payment of the exercise price) is properly treated as a fully taxable exchange. Assuming that the exchange of a Warrant for a Common Share and a New Warrant (without payment of the exercise price) is properly treated as a fully taxable exchange, a U.S. Holder generally would recognize gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between (a) the sum of the fair market value of the Common Share and the New Warrant received and (b) such U.S. Holder's tax basis in the Warrant exchanged, and a U.S. Holder's holding period for the Common Share and the New Warrant received in exchange for the Warrant should begin on the day after the date of such exchange. Alternatively, the IRS may take the position that the receipt of a New Warrant either represents a taxable fee to a U.S. Holder or should be treated as a distribution of a right to acquire stock under Section 305 of the Code, which could result in a taxable distribution to a U.S. Holder, depending on the circumstances (See more detailed discussion at "Exercise of Warrants" above). Each U.S. Holder should consult its own financial advisor, legal counsel, or accountant regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the exchange of a Warrant for a Common Share and a

32

New Warrant (without payment of the exercise price), including whether such exchange may qualify as a Recapitalization.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Exercise, Disposition, and Lapse of New Warrants

        A U.S. Holder should not recognize gain or loss on the exercise of a New Warrant and related receipt of a Common Share. A U.S. Holder's initial tax basis in the Common Share received on the exercise of a New Warrant should be equal to the sum of (a) such U.S. Holder's tax basis in such New Warrant plus (b) the exercise price paid by such U.S. Holder on the exercise of such New Warrant. A U.S. Holder's holding period for the Common Share received on the exercise of a New Warrant should begin on the date that such New Warrant is exercised by such U.S. Holder.

        A U.S. Holder will recognize gain or loss on the sale or other taxable disposition of a New Warrant in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between (a) the amount of cash plus the fair market value of any property received and (b) such U.S. Holder's tax basis in the New Warrant sold or otherwise disposed of. Subject to the "passive foreign investment company rules" discussed below, any such gain or loss generally will be a capital gain or loss (provided that the Common Share to be issued on the exercise of such New Warrant would have been a capital asset within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code if acquired by the U.S. Holder). Any such capital gain or loss will be short-term capital gain or loss or long-term capital gain or loss, depending on whether the New Warrants are held for more than one year.

        Upon the lapse or expiration of a New Warrant, a U.S. Holder should recognize a loss in an amount equal to such U.S. Holder's tax basis in the New Warrant. Any such loss generally will be a capital loss (provided that the Common Share to be issued on the exercise of such New Warrant would have been a capital asset within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code if acquired by the U.S. Holder). Any such capital loss will be short-term capital loss or long-term capital loss, depending on whether the New Warrants are held for more than one year.

        Under Section 305 of the Code, an adjustment to the number of Common Shares that will be issued on exercise of the New Warrants, or an adjustment to the exercise price of the New Warrants, may be treated as a constructive distribution to a U.S. Holder of the New Warrants if, and to the extent that, such adjustment has the effect of increasing such U.S. Holder's proportionate interest in the "earnings and profits" or assets of Goldcorp, depending on the circumstances of such adjustment (for example, if such adjustment is to compensate for a distribution of cash or other property to Shareholders). (See more detailed discussion of the rules applicable to distributions made by Goldcorp at "Distributions on Common Shares" below).

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Acquisition, Ownership, and Disposition of Common Shares

Distributions on Common Shares

        Subject to the "passive foreign investment company" rules discussed below, a U.S. Holder that receives a distribution, including a constructive distribution, with respect to the Common Shares will be required to include the amount of such distribution in gross income as a dividend (without reduction for any Canadian income tax withheld from such distribution) to the extent of the current or accumulated "earnings and profits" of Goldcorp. To the extent that a distribution exceeds the current and accumulated "earnings and profits" of Goldcorp, such distribution will be treated (a) first, as a tax-free return of capital to the extent of a U.S. Holder's tax basis in the Common Shares and, (b) thereafter, as gain from the sale or exchange of such Common Shares. (See more detailed discussion at "Disposition of Common Shares" below).

33

        For taxable years beginning after December 31, 2002 and before January 1, 2009, a dividend paid by Goldcorp generally will be taxed at the preferential tax rates applicable to long-term capital gains if (a) Goldcorp is a "qualified foreign corporation" (as defined below), (b) the U.S. Holder receiving such dividend is an individual, estate, or trust, and (c) such dividend is paid on Common Shares that have been held by such U.S. Holder for at least 61 days during the 121-day period beginning 60 days before the "ex-dividend date."

        Goldcorp generally will be a "qualified foreign corporation" under Section 1(h)(11) of the Code (a "QFC") if (a) Goldcorp is incorporated in a possession of the U.S., (b) Goldcorp is eligible for the benefits of the Canada-U.S. Tax Convention, or (c) the Common Shares are readily tradable on an established securities market in the U.S. However, even if Goldcorp satisfies one or more of such requirements, Goldcorp will not be treated as a QFC if Goldcorp is a "passive foreign investment company" (as defined below) for the taxable year during which Goldcorp pays a dividend or for the preceding taxable year. In 2003, the U.S. Department of the Treasury (the "Treasury") and the IRS announced that they intended to issue Treasury Regulations providing procedures for a foreign corporation to certify that it is a QFC. Although these Treasury Regulations have not yet been issued, the Treasury and the IRS have confirmed their intention to issue these Treasury Regulations. It is expected that these Treasury Regulations will obligate persons required to file information returns to report a dividend paid by a foreign corporation as a dividend from a QFC if the foreign corporation has, among other things, certified under penalties of perjury that the foreign corporation was not a "passive foreign investment company" for the taxable year during which the foreign corporation paid the dividend or for the preceding taxable year.

        As discussed below, Goldcorp does not expect that it will be a "passive foreign investment company" for the taxable year ending December 31, 2006 (See more detailed discussion at "Additional Rules that May Apply to U.S. Holders" below). However, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge the determination made by Goldcorp concerning its "passive foreign investment company" status or that Goldcorp will not be a "passive foreign investment company" for the current taxable year or any subsequent taxable year. Accordingly, although Goldcorp expects that it may be a QFC for the taxable year ending December 31, 2006, there can be no assurances that the IRS will not challenge the determination made by Goldcorp concerning its QFC status, that Goldcorp will be a QFC for the taxable year ending December 31, 2006 or any subsequent taxable year, or that Goldcorp will be able to certify that it is a QFC in accordance with the certification procedures issued by the Treasury and the IRS.

        If Goldcorp is not a QFC, a dividend paid by Goldcorp to a U.S. Holder, including a U.S. Holder that is an individual, estate, or trust, generally will be taxed at ordinary income tax rates (and not at the preferential tax rates applicable to long-term capital gains). The dividend rules are complex, and each U.S. Holder should consult its own financial advisor, legal counsel, or accountant regarding the dividend rules.

        The amount of a distribution paid to a U.S. Holder in foreign currency generally will be equal to the U.S. dollar value of such distribution based on the exchange rate applicable on the date of receipt. A U.S. Holder that does not convert foreign currency received as a distribution into U.S. dollars on the date of receipt generally will have a tax basis in such foreign currency equal to the U.S. dollar value of such foreign currency on the date of receipt. Such a U.S. Holder generally will recognize ordinary income or loss on the subsequent sale or other taxable disposition of such foreign currency (including an exchange for U.S. dollars).

        Dividends paid on the Common Shares generally will not be eligible for the "dividends received deduction." The availability of the dividends received deduction is subject to complex limitations that are beyond the scope of this discussion, and a U.S. Holder that is a corporation should consult its own financial advisor, legal counsel, or accountant regarding the dividends received deduction.

34

Disposition of Common Shares

        A U.S. Holder will recognize gain or loss on the sale or other taxable disposition of Common Shares in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between (a) the amount of cash plus the fair market value of any property received and (b) such U.S. Holder's tax basis in the Common Shares sold or otherwise disposed of. Subject to the "passive foreign investment company" rules discussed below, any such gain or loss generally will be capital gain or loss, which will be long-term capital gain or loss if the Common Shares are held for more than one year. Gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder on the sale or other taxable disposition of Common Shares generally will be treated as "U.S. source" for purposes of applying the U.S. foreign tax credit rules. (See more detailed discussion at "Foreign Tax Credit" below).

        Preferential tax rates apply to long-term capital gains of a U.S. Holder that is an individual, estate, or trust. There are currently no preferential tax rates for long-term capital gains of a U.S. Holder that is a corporation. Deductions for capital losses are subject to significant limitations under the Code.

Foreign Tax Credit

        A U.S. Holder that pays (whether directly or through withholding) Canadian income tax with respect to dividends received on the Common Shares generally will be entitled, at the election of such U.S. Holder, to receive either a deduction or a credit for such Canadian income tax paid. Generally, a credit will reduce a U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability on a dollar-for-dollar basis, whereas a deduction will reduce a U.S. Holder's income subject to U.S. federal income tax. This election is made on a year-by-year basis and applies to all foreign taxes paid (whether directly or through withholding) by a U.S. Holder during a year.

        Complex limitations apply to the foreign tax credit, including the general limitation that the credit cannot exceed the proportionate share of a U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability that such U.S. Holder's "foreign source" taxable income bears to such U.S. Holder's worldwide taxable income. In applying this limitation, a U.S. Holder's various items of income and deduction must be classified, under complex rules, as either "foreign source" or "U.S. source." In addition, this limitation is calculated separately with respect to specific categories of income (including "passive income," "high withholding tax interest," "financial services income," "general income," and certain other categories of income). Dividends received on the Common Shares generally will constitute "foreign source" income and generally will be categorized as "passive income" or, in the case of certain U.S. Holders, "financial services income." However, for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2006, the foreign tax credit limitation categories are reduced to "passive category income" and "general category income" (and the other categories of income, including "financial services income," are eliminated). The foreign tax credit rules are complex, and each U.S. Holder should consult its own financial advisor, legal counsel, or accountant regarding the foreign tax credit rules.

Information Reporting; Backup Withholding Tax

        Payments made within the U.S., or by a U.S. payor or U.S. middleman, of dividends on, or proceeds arising from the sale or other taxable disposition of, Common Shares generally will be subject to information reporting and backup withholding tax, at the rate of 28%, if a U.S. Holder (a) fails to furnish such U.S. Holder's correct U.S. taxpayer identification number (generally on Form W-9), (b) furnishes an incorrect U.S. taxpayer identification number, (c) is notified by the IRS that such U.S. Holder has previously failed to properly report items subject to backup withholding tax, or (d) fails to certify, under penalty of perjury, that such U.S. Holder has furnished its correct U.S. taxpayer identification number and that the IRS has not notified such U.S. Holder that it is subject to backup withholding tax. However, U.S. Holders that are corporations generally are excluded from these information reporting and backup withholding tax rules. Any amounts withheld under the U.S. backup withholding tax rules will be allowed as a credit against a U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, or will be refunded, if such U.S. Holder furnishes required information to the IRS. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own financial advisor, legal counsel, or accountant regarding the information reporting and backup withholding tax rules.

35


Additional Rules that May Apply to U.S. Holders

        If Goldcorp is a "passive foreign investment company" (as defined below), the preceding sections of this summary may not describe the U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of Common Shares.

Passive Foreign Investment Company

        Goldcorp generally will be a "passive foreign investment company" under Section 1297 of the Code (a "PFIC") if, for a taxable year, (a) 75% or more of the gross income of Goldcorp for such taxable year is passive income or (b) on average, 50% or more of the assets held by Goldcorp either produce passive income or are held for the production of passive income, based on the fair market value of such assets (or on the adjusted tax basis of such assets, if Goldcorp is not publicly traded and either is a "controlled foreign corporation" or makes an election). "Passive income" includes, for example, dividends, interest, certain rents and royalties, certain gains from the sale of stock and securities, and certain gains from commodities transactions. However, for transactions entered into after December 31, 2004, active business gains arising from the sale of commodities generally are excluded from passive income if substantially all of a foreign corporation's commodities are (a) stock in trade of such foreign corporation or other property of a kind which would properly be included in inventory of such foreign corporation, or property held by such foreign corporation primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business, (b) property used in the trade or business of such foreign corporation that would be subject to the allowance for depreciation under Section 167 of the Code, or (c) supplies of a type regularly used or consumed by such foreign corporation in the ordinary course of its trade or business.

        For purposes of the PFIC income test and asset test described above, if Goldcorp owns, directly or indirectly, 25% or more of the total value of the outstanding shares of another foreign corporation, Goldcorp will be treated as if it (a) held a proportionate share of the assets of such other foreign corporation and (b) received directly a proportionate share of the income of such other foreign corporation. In addition, for purposes of the PFIC income test and asset test described above, "passive income" does not include any interest, dividends, rents, or royalties that are received or accrued by Goldcorp from a "related person" (as defined in Section 954(d)(3) of the Code), to the extent such items are properly allocable to the income of such related person that is not passive income.

        If Goldcorp is a PFIC, the U.S. federal income tax consequences to a U.S. Holder of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of Common Shares will depend on whether such U.S. Holder makes an election to treat Goldcorp as a "qualified electing fund" or "QEF" under Section 1295 of the Code (a "QEF Election") or a mark-to-market election under Section 1296 of the Code (a "Mark-to-Market Election"). A U.S. Holder that does not make either a QEF Election or a Mark-to-Market Election will be referred to in this summary as a "Non-Electing U.S. Holder."

        Under Section 1291 of the Code, any gain recognized on the sale or other taxable disposition of Common Shares, and any "excess distribution" (as defined in Section 1291(b) of the Code) paid on the Common Shares, must be ratably allocated to each day in a Non-Electing U.S. Holder's holding period for the Common Shares. The amount of any such gain or excess distribution allocated to prior years of such Non-Electing U.S. Holder's holding period for the Common Shares generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at the highest tax applicable to ordinary income in each such prior year. A Non-Electing U.S. Holder will be required to pay interest on the resulting tax liability for each such prior year, calculated as if such tax liability had been due in each such prior year.

        A U.S. Holder that makes a timely QEF Election generally will not be subject to the rules of Section 1291 of the Code discussed above. However, a U.S. Holder that makes a QEF Election generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on such U.S. Holder's pro rata share of (a) the "net capital gain" of Goldcorp, which will be taxed as long-term capital gain to such U.S. Holder, and (b) and the "ordinary earnings" of Goldcorp, which will be taxed as ordinary income to such U.S. Holder. A U.S. Holder that makes a QEF Election will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on such amounts for each taxable year in which Goldcorp is a PFIC, regardless of whether such amounts are actually distributed to such U.S. Holder by Goldcorp.

36


        Under applicable Treasury Regulations, a person that holds an option, warrant, or other right to acquire shares of a PFIC may not make a QEF Election that will apply to either (a) the option, warrant, or other right or (b) the shares of the PFIC subject to the option, warrant, or other right. In addition, under proposed Treasury Regulations, if a person holds an option, warrant, or other right to acquire shares of a PFIC, the holding period with respect to the shares of the PFIC acquired on the exercise of such option, warrant, or other right will include the period that the option, warrant, or other right was held. Accordingly, in the event that Goldcorp is a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder holds New Warrants, a U.S. Holder of New Warrants may not make a QEF Election that will apply to either the New Warrants or the Common Shares subject to the New Warrants. In addition, if Goldcorp is a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder holds New Warrants, gain recognized on the sale or other taxable disposition (other than by exercise) of the New Warrants by a U.S. Holder will be subject to the rules of Section 1291 of the Code discussed above. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own financial advisor, legal counsel, or accountant regarding the application of the PFIC rules to the New Warrants and the Common Shares received on exercise of the New Warrants.

        A U.S. Holder that makes a Mark-to-Market Election generally will not be subject to the rules of Section 1291 of the Code discussed above. A U.S. Holder may make a Mark-to-Market Election only if the Common Shares are "marketable stock" (as defined in Section 1296(e) of the Code). A U.S. Holder that makes a Mark-to-Market Election will include in gross income, for each taxable year in which Goldcorp is a PFIC, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (a) the fair market value of the Common Shares as of the close of such taxable year over (b) such U.S. Holder's tax basis in such Common Shares. A U.S. Holder that makes a Mark-to-Market Election will, subject to certain limitations, be allowed a deduction in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (a) such U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis in the Common Shares over (b) the fair market value of such Common Shares as of the close of such taxable year.

        Goldcorp does not expect that it will be a PFIC for the taxable year ending December 31, 2006. The determination of whether Goldcorp was, or will be, a PFIC for a taxable year depends, in part, on the application of complex U.S. federal income tax rules, which are subject to differing interpretations. In addition, whether Goldcorp will be a PFIC for the taxable year ending December 31, 2006 and each subsequent taxable year depends on the assets and income of Goldcorp over the course of each such taxable year and, as a result, cannot be predicted with certainty as of the date of this Prospectus. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge the determination made by Goldcorp concerning its PFIC status or that Goldcorp was not, or will not be, a PFIC for any taxable year.

        The PFIC rules are complex, and each U.S. Holder should consult its own financial advisor, legal counsel, or accountant regarding the PFIC rules and how the PFIC rules may affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of Common Shares.

STATUTORY RIGHTS OF WITHDRAWAL AND RESCISSION

        Securities legislation in certain of the provinces and territories of Canada provides purchasers with the right to withdraw from an agreement to purchase securities. This right may be exercised within two business days after receipt or deemed receipt of a prospectus and any amendment. In several of the provinces and territories of Canada, the securities legislation further provides a purchaser with remedies for rescission or, in some jurisdictions, damages if the prospectus and any amendment contains a misrepresentation or is not delivered to the purchaser, provided that the remedies for rescission or damages are exercised by the purchaser within the time limit prescribed by the securities legislation of the purchaser's province or territory. The purchaser should refer to any applicable provisions of the securities legislation of the purchaser's province or territory for the particulars of these rights or consult with a legal adviser. Rights and remedies may also be available to purchasers under U.S. law. Warrantholders may wish to consult with a U.S. lawyer for particulars of these rights.


ENFORCEABILITY OF CERTAIN CIVIL LIABILITIES

        The Corporation is an Ontario corporation with its principal place of business in Canada. The majority of its directors and officers are residents of Canada and all or a substantial portion of its assets and the assets of such persons are located outside the United States. Consequently, it may be difficult for United States investors to effect service of process within the United States on the Corporation or its directors or officers, or to realize in the United States on judgments of courts of the United States predicated on civil liabilities under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Investors should not assume that Canadian courts would enforce judgments of United States courts obtained in actions against the Corporation or such persons predicated on the civil liability provisions of the United States federal securities laws or the securities or "blue sky" laws of any state within the United States or would enforce, in original actions, liabilities against the Corporation or such persons predicated on the United States federal securities or any such state securities or "blue sky" laws.

AUDITORS' REPORT

        To the Directors of Placer Dome (CLA) Limited:

        We have audited the combined balance sheets of the Operations to be Acquired by Goldcorp as at December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the combined statements of earnings (loss) and Placer Dome's net investment and cash flows for each of the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. These financial statements are the responsibility of Placer Dome (CLA) Limited's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

        We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

        In our opinion, these combined financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Operations to be Acquired by Goldcorp as at December 31, 2005, and 2004 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.

PART II

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED TO BE DELIVERED TO
OFFEREES OR PURCHASERS

INDEMNIFICATION

        Under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario), the Registrant may indemnify a present or former director or officer or person who acts or acted at the Registrant's request as a director or officer of another corporation of which the Registrant is or was a shareholder or creditor, and his heirs and legal representatives, against all costs, charges and expenses, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably incurred by him in respect of any civil, criminal or administrative action or proceeding to which he is made a party by reason of his being or having been a director or officer of the Registrant or body corporate and provided that the director or officer acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interest of the Registrant and, in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, had reasonable grounds for believing that his conduct was lawful. Such indemnification may be made in connection with a derivative action only with court approval. A director is entitled to indemnification from the Registrant as a matter of right if he was substantially successful on the merits in his defense and fulfilled the conditions set forth above.

        In accordance with the Business Corporations Act (Ontario), the by-laws of the Registrant indemnify a director or officer, a former director or officer, or a person who acts or acted at a Registrant's request as a director or officer of a corporation in which the Registrant is or was a shareholder or creditor against any and all losses and expenses reasonably incurred by him in respect of any civil, criminal, administrative action or proceeding to which he was made a party by reason of being or having been a director or officer of the Registrant or other corporation if he acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Registrant, or, in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by monetary penalty, he had reasonable grounds in believing that his conduct was lawful.

        A policy of directors' and officers' liability insurance is maintained by the Registrant which insures directors and officers for losses as a result of claims against the directors and officers of the Registrant in their capacity as directors and officers and also reimburses the Registrant for payments made pursuant to the indemnity provisions under the by-laws and the Business Corporations Act (Ontario).

        Insofar as indemnification for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy in the United States as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is therefore unenforceable.

EXHIBITS

        The exhibits to this Registration Statement are listed in the Exhibit Index which appears elsewhere herein.
