Item 5           Full Description of Material Change

On December 5, 2012, Premier Gold and Premier Royalty announced that Premier Royalty completed the previously announced Arrangement on December 4, 2012. Effective December 11, 2012, Premier Royalty's common shares and listed warrants began trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") under the symbols "NSR", "NSR.WT" and "NSR.WT.A", respectively. In connection with the Arrangement:

  • Bridgeport's name was changed to "Premier Royalty Inc.";

  • all existing directors and management of Bridgeport resigned, other than Hugh Snyder and Shastri Ramnath who continued as directors of Premier Royalty. Ewan Downie, Abraham Drost, George Faught, Steven Filipovic, Howard Katz and Julie Lassonde were appointed as directors of Premier Royalty;

  • common shares of Bridgeport were consolidated on the basis of one post-consolidation share (a "Premier Royalty Share") for every four pre-consolidation shares;

  • Premier Royalty issued 0.375 of a warrant (each whole warrant, a "Premier Royalty Warrant") for each Premier Royalty Share held by shareholders of record as at 12:01

  • a.m. (Toronto time) on December 4, 2012 (the "Effective Time"). Each whole Premier Royalty Warrant is exercisable at a price of $2.00 per Premier Royalty Share for a period commencing on June 4, 2013 and ending on December 4, 2016, subject to early expiry upon the occurrence of certain events;

  • all existing Bridgeport options will be terminated on or prior to March 4, 2013. The terms of the warrants of Bridgeport existing prior to the Effective Time have been adjusted to reflect the consolidation of Bridgeport common shares and the distribution of Premier Royalty Warrants upon the exercise of such warrants;
  • on behalf of Premier Royalty Corporation, Premier Royalty repaid $8 million of the $28 million (plus interest) outstanding balance on the convertible bridge loan facility issued by Premier Gold to Premier Royalty Corporation. Premier Gold converted the remaining amount outstanding under the convertible bridge loan facility into approximately 14.7 million Premier Royalty Shares, approximately 5.5 million Premier Royalty Warrants and approximately 1.46 million warrants (the "Class II Warrants"), with each Class II Warrant exercisable at a price of $2.00 per Premier Royalty Share until October 7, 2014. Premier Gold currently owns approximately 33.7 million Premier Royalty Shares, representing approximately 53.5% of the issued and outstanding Premier Royalty Shares;
  • pursuant to the policies of the TSX, all of the Premier Royalty Shares and warrants to acquire Premier Royalty Shares held by Premier Gold and Mr. Hugh Snyder are subject to escrow, one-quarter of which were immediately released from escrow and one-quarter of the balance will be released from escrow every six months over the next 18 months. In the event the market capitalization of Premier Royalty is greater than $100 million for at least 5 trading days after the Premier Royalty Shares begin trading on the TSX under the symbol "NSR", the TSX may permit the early release of the Premier Royalty Shares and warrants from escrow;
  • all common shares of Premier Royalty Corporation, including approximately 33.7 million common shares held by Premier Gold, were exchanged for Premier Royalty Shares on a one-for-one basis, resulting in Premier Royalty Corporation becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Premier Royalty; and
  • approximately 16.61 million Premier Royalty Shares and approximately 8.07 million warrants to purchase Premier Royalty Shares were issued to former convertible debenture holders of Premier Royalty Corporation and to certain vendors of royalty interests.

As a result of the Arrangement, there are approximately 62.9 million Premier Royalty Shares outstanding (on a non-diluted basis), of which approximately 12.6 million Premier Royalty Shares, representing approximately 20.1% of the outstanding Premier Royalty Shares, are held by Bridgeport shareholders of record immediately prior to the completion of the Arrangement.
