                    Attention: Investor Relations

                                  THE COMPANY

          United Park City Mines Company is a Delaware corporation formed in
1953.  The Company's principal business is currently the lease, development, and
sale of real 

                                      -5-
<PAGE>
 
property located in or near Park City, Utah. The Company owns the surface estate
to more than 8,300 acres of land in the vicinity of Park City, Utah.

          Prior to 1982, the Company's principal business was the mining of
lead, zinc, silver, gold, and copper ores from mining properties in the Park
City area that it acquired upon its formation in 1953, and the leasing of these
mining properties to other mine operators.  The Company now conducts no active
mining operations, and has no agreements to sell or lease its mining properties.
The mining properties are maintained on a standby basis.  The Company also
performs mine and tunnel maintenance for other entities on a contract basis.

          During 1995, the Company completed construction of a mine tour
attraction at its Ontario Mine facilities near Park City, Utah.  The mine tour
attraction, which is operated by the Company's wholly owned subsidiary Park City
Silver Mine Adventure, Inc., opened to the public on December 15, 1995.  The
mine tour attraction combines an underground mine tour with extensive historical
exhibits that depict the mining heritage of the Park City area.

          The Company also leases some of its land for skiing purposes to the
operators of the Park City Ski Area and the Deer Valley Ski Area.

                    SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS AND RISK FACTORS

          THIS PROSPECTUS MAY CONTAIN TREND INFORMATION AND FORWARD-LOOKING
STATEMENTS THAT INVOLVE RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES.  THE ACTUAL RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS OF THE COMPANY COULD DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THE COMPANY'S HISTORICAL
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND THOSE DISCUSSED IN SUCH FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AS
A RESULT OF CERTAIN FACTORS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION AND ELSEWHERE IN THIS
PROSPECTUS, INCLUDING INFORMATION INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE IN THIS PROSPECTUS.
    
          1.   HISTORY OF LOSSES:  The Company has had net losses during each of
               -----------------                                                
the last ten years, with the exception of 1995.  Since 1988 the net income (or
net loss) each year has been; ($680,715); ($1,517,746); ($1,718,090);
($1,287,915); ($1,576,453); ($983,427); ($702,392); $773,276; ($594,237), and
($2,339,090) for the years ended December, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993,
1994, 1995, 1996, and 1997 respectively.     

          2.   DIVIDENDS:  No dividends have been paid by the Company in the
               ---------                                                    
past and it is unlikely that they will be paid in the foreseeable future.
Stockholders who anticipate the need for either immediate or future income by
way of dividends from their investments should refrain from the purchase of
Common Stock offered hereby.

          3.   RISKS OF REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT: One of the principal business
               --------------------------------                               
activities of the Company is the development of selected portions of its real
estate holdings.  The Company's real estate development activities are subject
to the risks generally incident to real estate development, including the
possibility of adverse changes in national or local 

                                      -6-
<PAGE>
 
economic and market conditions, changes in the investment climate for real
estate, adverse changes in governmental rules and fiscal policies, competition,
effects of overbuilding, environmental risks, acts of God, and uncertainties
involved in engineering, financing and in the permitting and zoning process. The
Company cannot predict the effects such risks may have on its real estate
development activities.
    
          4.   POSSIBLE CONTINUING LOSSES:  After posting a loss of $594,237 on
               --------------------------                                      
revenues of $6,246,935 in 1996, the Company sustained a loss of $2,339,090 on
revenues of $3,129,008 in 1997.  The losses are attributable to several factors,
including slower than expected lot sales in the Company's Hidden Meadows
subdivision and costs associated with operations of the Company's mine tour
attraction exceeding revenues.  There can be no assurance that the factors that
contributed to such losses will not continue into the future and, if they do,
such losses could have a negative impact on the Company and its Common 
Stock.     

          5.   OTHER RISK FACTORS: The Company began operating a mine tour
               ------------------                                         
attraction in December of 1995.  During its first year of operations the mine
tour had a loss of approximately $1,370,000.  During 1997, the mine tour
continued to incur losses.  Though continued losses from operating the mine tour
could indicate an inability to recover the related costs, management continues
to believe that their advertising efforts and emphasis on cost efficiencies will
result in the mine tour being profitable in the near future.

          6.   OTHER RECENT DEVELOPMENTS: During the third quarter of 1997, the
               -------------------------                                       
Company conducted a Rights Offering to raise additional capital to repay short-
term indebtedness, to continue its real estate development activities, and to
provide working capital for the Company's continuing operations.  In the Rights
Offering, the Company issued to its stockholders non-transferable Rights to
subscribe for up to 340,000 additional shares of its Common Stock.  Such Rights
were issued to the holders of Common Stock as of the close of business on August
18, 1998 (the "Record Date").  The stockholders as of the Record Date received
one (1) Right for each eight (8) shares of Common Stock they owned on the Record
Date.  The Rights were not transferable and they were not traded on any
exchange.  Each Right entitled the holder thereof to subscribe for one (1)
additional share of Common Stock for $16.00 and provided a right to subscribe
for any shares which were unsubscribed for in the Rights Offering.  The Company
raised approximately $5,440,000, before deducting expenses, in the Rights
Offering.  The proceeds from the Rights Offering have been used to repay short-
term indebtedness, to provide working capital for the Company's continuing
operations, and to continue the Company's real estate development activities.

                                USE OF PROCEEDS

     196,797 of the Shares were issued in connection with a certain Agreement
for Purchase and Sale of Assets dated December 31, 1997 between the Company and
New Quincy, and 6,903 of the Shares were issued in connection with a certain
Agreement for Purchase and Sale of Assets dated December 31, 1997 between the
Company and Lucky Bill (the "Agreements").  

                                      -7-
<PAGE>
 
As part of the consideration relating to the Agreements, wherein the Company
purchased all of the assets of New Quincy and Lucky Bill, the Company issued
203,700 restricted shares of the Company's Common Stock, $0.01 par value per
share, to the Selling Shareholders and agreed to register the Shares with the
United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Upon completion of this
registration, the Shares may be sold from time to time by the Selling
Shareholders. Consequently, the Company will not receive any proceeds from the
sale of the Shares.

                             PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

          Upon completion of this registration, the Shares offered hereby may be
sold from time to time directly by the Selling Shareholders or by pledgees,
donees, transferees or other successors-in-interest to the Selling Shareholders.
Alternatively, the Shares may be offered from time to time by or through brokers
or dealers who may act solely as agents, or who may acquire the Shares as
principals. The distribution of the Shares may be effected in one or more
transactions that may take place on the New York Stock Exchange, including block
trades, ordinary broker's transactions, privately negotiated transactions or
sales through one or more brokers or dealers for resale of such securities as a
principal, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to
such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. Usual and customary or
specifically negotiated brokerage fees or commissions may be paid by these
holders in connection with such sales.

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

          Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware permits
indemnification of directors, officers and employees of a corporation under
certain conditions and subject to certain limitations.  The Company's Restated
Certificate of Incorporation contains the following provision for the
indemnification of directors and officers:

          INDEMNIFICATION:    Each director and each officer of the corporation
          ---------------                                                      
shall be indemnified by the corporation against all expenses, as hereinafter
defined, which shall necessarily or reasonably be incurred by him in connection
with any action, suit or proceeding to which he is or shall be a party, or with
which he may be threatened, by reason of his being or having been a director or
officer of the corporation, whether or not he continues to be a director or
officer at the time of incurring such expenses.  As used in this paragraph,
expenses 

                                      -11-
<PAGE>
 
shall include amount of judgments against, or amounts paid in settlement by,
such director or officer, other than amounts payable or paid to the corporation,
but shall not include any (a) expenses incurred in connection with any matters
as to which such director or officer shall be adjudged in such action, suit or
proceeding, without such judgment being reversed, to be liable by reason of his
negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of his duties as a director
or officer, or (b) expenses incurred in connection with any matters which shall
have been subject to such action, suit or proceeding, disposed of otherwise than
by adjudication on the merits, unless in relation to such matter such director
or officer shall not have been liable for negligence or wilful misconduct in the
performance of his duties as a director or officer. As to whether or not a
director or officer was liable for negligence or wilful misconduct in the
performance of his duties as such director or officer, the Board of Directors
and each director and officer may conclusively rely upon an opinion of legal
counsel selected by or in the manner designated by the Board of Directors. The
foregoing right of indemnification shall be in addition to any rights to which
any director or officer may be or become entitled by law, vote of stockholders
or otherwise.

ITEM 17.  UNDERTAKINGS.

          1.   The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

               (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

                   (i)   To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3)
                   of the Securities Act of 1933;

                   (ii)  To reflect in the Prospectus any facts or events
                   arising after the effective date of the Registration
                   Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment
                   thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a
                   fundamental change in the information set forth in the
                   Registration Statement;

                   (iii) To include any material information with respect to the
                   plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the
                   Registration Statement or any material change to such
                   information in the Registration Statement;

     Provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the
     information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
     paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant
     pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
     1934 that are incorporated by reference in the Registration 

                                      -13-
<PAGE>
 
     Statement.

              (2) That, for the purposes of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be
a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

              (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.

          2.  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of United Park City Mines Company (the "Company") pursuant to any
provisions of its articles of incorporation or bylaws, or otherwise, the Company
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the
successful defense of any action, suit of proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against the
public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
