From the date hereof and until such time as each Royalty Agreement is delivered to the Purchaser (the “Delivery Period”) as contemplated in Section 2.3(a), the Vendor covenants and agrees that it will take all actions necessary and shall conduct itself and cause each of the Royalty Entities to conduct themselves in such a manner that imparts on the Purchaser the rights contemplated under each of the Royalty Agreements and the benefit of the Buyback Rights (as contemplated in Section 2.2 hereof) and cause each of the applicable Royalty Entities to abide by its obligations and carry out its duties under each of the Royalty Agreements and each of the Assignment Agreements as though it was executed and delivered as of the date hereof.

2.1 Net Smelter Return Royalty. For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency whereof being hereby acknowledged, the Owner does hereby issue and grant to the Royalty Holder, and agrees to pay to the Royalty Holder, the Royalty all on the terms and conditions specified in this Agreement.
   
2.2 Withholding. [********].
   
2.3 Sale of Products Other Than to a Smelter or Refinery. If there is a Sale by the Owner or an Affiliate other than to a smelter or refinery, the Royalty shall be % of the gross value of recoverable metals or other materials contained in such Products, without deductions except for penalties or offsets in respect of ore dependent factors, if any, imposed by the buyer in relation to the specific Products delivered. The amount of recoverable metals or other materials contained in Products removed from the Property shall be calculated and determined based upon assays, metallurgical tests and such other analyses as are customary in the industry which are conducted in a manner satisfactory to the Owner and the Royalty Holder, acting reasonably. If the Parties are unable to agree on the manner of conducting such assays, tests and analyses for a period of 30 days, either of the Parties may refer the question to arbitration hereunder and the decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding upon the Parties. For the purposes of this section, the gross value of such metals or other materials shall be determined by multiplying the amount of such metals or other materials by the Monthly Average Spot Price on the date of Sale.

 

B-7
 

 

2.4 Interest in Land. The Parties agree that, subject to the provisions of section 2.7 and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Royalty constitutes an interest in the Property and will be a covenant running with the Property, will be enforceable as an in rem interest in land which shall run with the Property and will be binding upon and enure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and assigns. It is the intention of the Parties that to the extent permissible at law, the Royalty on the Property and the Royalty Agreement shall be registerable or otherwise recordable in all public places where interests in land in respect of the Property are recordable and the Owner shall, at the Owner’s sole cost and expense, execute, deliver, file, register and record such further documents as may be necessary for the timely and effective recording or registration of a caution, conveyance, mortgage, notice or caveat in respect of this Agreement, in such public places [including any necessary translation of this Agreement into the [Spanish/Portuguese] language as may be required by applicable laws or regulations]. It is further understood that, should the Royalty not be capable of being registered or recorded against title to the Property without reference to any form of additional security for the Royalty, the Owner will cooperate fully in executing any necessary documentation in order that such additional security, as may be commercially reasonable, be registered or recorded as may be required in order to register or record the Royalty and related additional security.
   
2.5 Tailings and Residue. All tailings, residues, waste rock, spoiled leach materials and other materials (collectively the “Materials”) resulting from the Owner’s operations and activities on the Property shall be the sole property of the Owner, but shall remain subject to the obligation to pay the Royalty should the same be processed or reprocessed, as the case may be, in the future and result in Products. The Owner shall have the right to dispose of Materials from the Property, whether on or off of the Property, and to commingle the same with Materials from other properties. In the event Materials are processed or reprocessed, as the case may be, the Royalty applicable thereto shall be determined on a pro rata basis as determined by using such reasonable and customary engineering and technical practices as are then available.
   
2.6 Ore Processing. All determinations with respect to: (a) whether ore from the Property will be beneficiated, processed or milled by the Owner or sold in a raw state; (b) the methods of beneficiating, processing or milling any such ore; (c) the constituents to be recovered therefrom; and (d) the purchasers to whom any ore, minerals or mineral substances derived from the Property may be sold, shall be made by the Owner in its sole and absolute discretion.
   
2.7 Abandonment, Relinquishment or Non-Renewal.

 

  (a) If the Owner or an Affiliate of the Owner wishes to abandon, relinquish or terminate or not renew (the “Relinquishment Event”) all or any portion of the Property (the “Released Property”), then the Owner shall provide the Royalty Holder with a minimum of 30 days prior written notice of such intended Relinquishment Event (the “Relinquishment Notice”).

 

B-8
 

 

  (b) Upon receipt of the Relinquishment Notice, the Royalty Holder shall have a period of 10 days (“Relinquishment Notice Period”) within which to advise the Owner by written notice that it desires to acquire such Released Property for consideration of (i) $10.00 and (ii) a release and indemnity, whereby the Royalty Holder releases and indemnifies the Owner from any Losses arising out of or in consequence of any act, activity, omission or obligation in relation to such Released Property that existed, occurred or took place as a result of an action by the Royalty Holder after the assignment or conveyance of such Released Property to the Royalty Holder (the “Released Property Conveyance Date”), provided that, for certainty, the Royalty Holder shall not release or indemnify the Owner from any Losses arising out of or in consequence of any act, activity, omission or obligation in relation to the Released Property that existed, occurred or took place before the Released Property Conveyance Date (the “Release and Indemnity”).
     
  (c) If the Royalty Holder shall forward a written notice as contemplated in section 2.7(b) to the Owner within the Relinquishment Notice Period, the Owner shall thereafter do all such acts and things or shall cause all such acts and things to be done, at the Royalty Holder’s sole cost and expense, to assign or convey, as appropriate, the Released Property to the Royalty Holder and to have the Released Property recorded or registered into the name of the Royalty Holder.
     
  (d) If the Royalty Holder does not forward a written notice as contemplated in section 2.7(b) to the Owner within the Relinquishment Notice Period, then the Owner or the Affiliate of the Owner shall have the right to complete the Relinquishment Event with respect to the applicable Released Property.
     
  (e) If a Relinquishment Event is completed thereafter and the Owner or any Affiliate of the Owner subsequently reacquires a direct or indirect beneficial interest in the Released Property, then such Released Property will once again be subject to the obligation to pay the Royalty with respect thereto.

 

3. PAYMENTS, TRADING ACTIVITIES AND BOOKS AND RECORDS
   
3.1 Payment Obligation. The obligation to pay the Royalty will accrue when there has been a Sale, provided that any Royalty due in respect of a Product Loss will accrue when the insurance proceeds are paid.
   
3.2 Provisional Settlements. Where a Sale (including an insurance settlement in respect of a Product Loss) is made on a provisional basis, the amount of the Royalty payable will be based upon the amount of metal or other Products (or the amount of the insurance settlement received in respect of a Product Loss) credited by such provisional settlement, but will be adjusted to account for the amount of metal or other Products (or the amount of the insurance settlement received in respect of a Product Loss) established by final settlement with the treatment facility or with the purchaser or insurer, as the case may be. If production has ceased, settlement will be made between the Parties by cash payment.

 

B-9
 

 

3.3 Due Date. Royalty payments will be due and payable quarterly on the last day of the Month following the end of the calendar quarter in which the same accrued. The Owner shall pay interest on any delinquent Royalty payment at a rate per annum of 10%, compounded annually, commencing on the date on which such delinquent payment was properly due and payable and continuing until the date on which the Royalty Holder receives payment in full of such delinquent payment and all accrued interest thereon.
   
3.4 Royalty Statements. Royalty payments will be accompanied by a statement showing in reasonable detail for the relevant calendar quarter:

 

  (a) the quantities, grades, tonnes mined, mined grade, head grade of milled Products and metallurgical recoveries of Products (on a Product by Product basis) produced;
     
  (b) the quantities and grades of Products (on a Product by Product basis) produced and for which there was a Sale in the quarter;
     
  (c) the Gross Proceeds of Sale received in the quarter (on a Product by Product basis), setting out the applicable Offtakers and the number of ounces, tonnes or pounds, as applicable, of each of the Products sold in each Month of the quarter as well as the Monthly Average Spot Price for each such Product for each Month of the quarter;
     
  (d) the quantity of Products produced from the Property, which are at the Property or elsewhere, which have not been the subject of a Sale;
     
  (e) the Allowable Deductions in the quarter;
     
  (f) any adjustments to provisional settlements; and
     
  (g) other pertinent information in sufficient detail to explain the calculation of the Royalty payment.

 

3.5 Adjustments. Subject to section 3.2, all Royalty payments will be considered final and in full satisfaction of all obligations of the Owner with respect thereto, unless the Royalty Holder gives the Owner written notice describing and setting forth a specific objection to the determination thereof within 12 Months after the receipt by the Royalty Holder of the quarterly Royalty statement as described in section 3.4. In addition to the provisions of sections 3.10 and 3.12, if the Royalty Holder objects to a particular quarterly statement as herein provided, then:

 

  (a) the Royalty Holder will have the right for a period of 90 days after the Owner releases such notice of such objection, upon reasonable notice and at a reasonable time, and for a reasonable period of duration, to have the Owner’s accounts and records relating to the calculation of the Royalty in question audited by a chartered professional accountant of recognized standing selected by the Royalty Holder;

 

B-10
 

 

  (b) if such audit determines that there has been a deficiency or an excess in the payment made to the Royalty Holder, such deficiency or excess will be resolved by adjusting the next quarterly Royalty payment due hereunder. If production has ceased, settlement will be made between the Parties by cash payment; and
     
  (c) the Royalty Holder will pay all costs of such audit unless a deficiency of more than 3% of the amount due to the Royalty Holder is determined to exist. The Owner will pay the costs of such audit if a deficiency of more than 3% of the amount due is determined to exist. Failure on the part of the Royalty Holder to make a claim to the Owner for adjustment in such one year period will establish the correctness of the payment and preclude the filing of exception thereto or the making of claims for adjustment thereon.

 

3.6 Conversion of Currency. All payments in respect of the Royalty will be made in U.S. dollars.
   
3.7 Wire Transfer. Payments made under or pursuant to this Agreement will be made without demand, notice, set-off or reduction, by wire transfer in good, immediately available funds, to such account or accounts as the Royalty Holder may designate pursuant to wire instructions provided by the Royalty Holder to the Owner not less than five Business Days prior to the dates upon which such payments are to be made. The date the wire transfer process is initiated shall be the date of such payment, provided that the Royalty Holder receives such payment, and the Owner shall have no duty to otherwise apportion any payment to the Royalty Holder or its successors or assigns.
   
3.8 Payments in Kind. In the event that the Royalty Holder determines that it wishes to receive Royalty payments in physical product in kind, the Royalty Holder shall provide written notice of such election. Upon timely receipt of such notice, the Owner shall direct any Offtaker that is the final refiner or other processor of the applicable Products to pay the Royalty directly to the account of the Royalty Holder. The Owner shall, and shall cause the Offtaker to, notify the Royalty Holder in writing at least three weeks prior to any change of such Offtaker. All costs incurred by the Owner with respect to arranging for such payment in kind shall be for the account of the Royalty Holder and may be deducted from any subsequent payment of the Royalty.
   
3.9 Trading Activities of Owner. The Owner will have the right to market and sell Refined Metal in any manner it may elect, and will have the right to engage in forward sales, futures trading or commodity options trading and other price hedging, price protection and speculative arrangements (the “Trading Activities”) which may involve the possible physical delivery of Products. In determining the net proceeds from the Sale of any Products subject to the Royalty, the Owner will not be entitled to deduct from Gross Proceeds any Losses suffered by the Owner, a shareholder of the Owner or an Affiliate of the Owner in Trading Activities. If the Owner engages in Trading Activities, the Royalty will be determined on the basis of the value of the Products produced and without regard to the price or proceeds actually received by the Owner for or in connection with the Sale, or the manner in which a Sale to a third party is made by the Owner, such value to be based on the Monthly Average Spot Price for the Month during which Products are credited to the account of the Owner or any Affiliate with a smelter or refiner, or, if the Owner engages in Trading Activities in respect of Products other than Refined Metal, the Gross Proceeds will be based on the value of such Products at the time such Products are actually delivered to third parties. The Parties agree that the Royalty Holder is not a participant in the Trading Activities of the Owner, and therefore the Royalty will not be diminished or improved by losses or gains of the Owner or any of its Affiliates in any such Trading Activities.

 

B-11
 

 

3.10 Books and Records and Audit Rights. The Owner shall keep true, complete and accurate books and records of all of its operations and activities with respect to the Property, including the mining of Products therefrom and the mining, stockpiling, treatment, processing, refining and transportation of Products, prepared in accordance with good mining industry practice, consistently applied. Subject to section 9.2, the Royalty Holder and/or its authorized representatives shall be entitled, upon delivery of ten Business Days advance written notice, during the normal business hours of the Owner, in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the Owner’s business, and not more than once per calendar quarter (unless and until a discrepancy in excess of more than 3% is discovered and then the audit, review and examination rights shall be unrestricted), to perform audits or other reviews and examinations of the Owner’s books and records relevant to the calculation and payment of the Royalty pursuant to this Agreement to confirm compliance with the terms of this Agreement, including without limitation, calculations of Net Smelter Returns and to prepare technical reports pursuant to section 3.11. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Royalty Holder shall have the right to audit all invoices and other records relating to the transportation of Products from the Property to any mill, refinery or other processor at which Products from the Property may be milled, smelted, concentrated, refined or otherwise treated or processed and relating to the transportation of Products in the form of concentrates, doré, slag or other waste products from any mill at which Products from the Property may be milled, to a processor. The Royalty Holder shall diligently complete any audit or other examination permitted hereunder. All expenses of any audit or other examination permitted hereunder shall be paid by the Royalty Holder, unless the results of such audit or other examination permitted hereunder disclose a deficiency in respect of any Royalty payments paid to the Royalty Holder hereunder in respect of the period being audited or examined in an amount greater than 3% of the amount of the Royalty properly payable with respect to such period, in which event all expenses of such audit or other examination shall be paid by the Owner.
   
  In performing such audit the Royalty Holder and/or its agents shall have reasonable access to all sampling, assay, weighing and production records, including all mining, stockpile and milling records of the Owner relating to the Property and any Products derived from the Property (and the Royalty Holder shall be allowed to make notes or a photocopy thereof, subject to the provisions of section 9.2), all of which such records shall be kept and retained by the Owner in accordance with good mining industry practice for a period of six years.

 

3.11 Technical Reports. If the Owner or any of its Affiliates prepares a technical report under NI 43-101 (or similar report) in respect of the Property, the Owner shall ensure that the Royalty Holder is provided with an advanced draft copy (and a reasonable opportunity to comment thereon) of such technical report before it is filed on SEDAR or otherwise publicly made available and in any event not less than 10 Business Days before it is so filed or made public. Upon the request of the Royalty Holder, the Owner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the author(s) of such report to provide, at the sole cost and expense of the Royalty Holder, (i) a copy of such report to be addressed to the Royalty Holder or any of its Affiliates; (ii) the relevant certificates and consents of the author(s) required in connection with the filing of and reference to such report to be provided to the Royalty Holder or any of its Affiliates; and (iii) such other consents in connection with the use of or reliance upon such report by the Royalty Holder or any of its Affiliates from time to time in its public disclosure as may be required by the Royalty Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Royalty Holder or any of its Affiliates is required by applicable law to prepare a technical report under NI 43-101 (or similar report) in respect of the Property and chooses to prepare its own technical report (or similar report), the Owner shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, cooperate with and allow the Royalty Holder and its authorized representatives to access technical information pertaining to the Property and complete site visits at the Property so as to enable the Royalty Holder or its Affiliates, as the case may be, to prepare the technical report (or similar report) in accordance with NI 43-101 (or any other applicable Canadian and/or U.S. securities laws and/or stock exchange rules and policies governing the disclosure obligations of the Royalty Holder or any of its Affiliates) at the sole cost and expense of the Royalty Holder.

 

B-12
 

 

3.12 Annual Report. The Owner shall deliver to the Royalty Holder an Annual Report on or before 120 days after the last day of each fiscal year of the Owner. With respect to any Annual Report, the Royalty Holder shall have the right to dispute any information provided in compliance with subsections (i), (iii) and (iv) in the definition of Annual Report in accordance with the provisions of this section relevant to the calculation and payment of the Royalty pursuant to this Agreement. If the Royalty Holder disputes any of that information in an Annual Report:

 

  (a) the Royalty Holder shall notify the Owner in writing within 90 days from the date of delivery of the applicable Annual Report that it disputes the accuracy of that Annual Report (or any part thereof) (the “Annual Report Dispute Notice”);

 

  (b) the Royalty Holder on the one hand and the Owner on the other hand shall have 90 days from the date the Annual Report Dispute Notice is delivered by the Royalty Holder to resolve the dispute. If the Royalty Holder and the Owner have not resolved the dispute within the said 90 day period, a mutually agreed independent third-party expert will be appointed to prepare a report with respect to the dispute in question (the “Expert’s Report”). If the Royalty Holder and the Owner have not agreed upon such expert within a further 10 days after the said 90 day period, then the dispute as to the expert shall be resolved by the dispute mechanism procedures set forth in Article 7;

 

  (c) if the Expert’s Report concludes that the amount of the Royalty which was to have been paid to the Royalty Holder was deficient by 3% or less from the Royalty set out in the Annual Report, then the cost of the Expert’s Report shall be borne by the Royalty Holder;

 

B-13
 

 

  (d) if the Expert’s Report concludes that the amount of the Royalty which was to have been paid to the Royalty Holder was deficient by more than 3% from the Royalty set out in the Annual Report, then the cost of the Expert’s Report shall be borne by the Owner; and

 

  (e) if the Royalty Holder or the Owner disputes the Expert’s Report and such dispute is not resolved between the Parties within ten days after the date of delivery of the Expert’s Report, then such dispute shall be resolved by the dispute mechanism procedures set forth in Article 7.

 

If the Owner does not deliver an Annual Report as required pursuant to this Article, the Royalty Holder shall have the right to perform or to cause its representatives or agents to perform, at the cost and expense of the Owner, an audit of the books and records of the Owner relevant to the Royalty in accordance with the provisions of section 3.10.

  (a) a right of access by its representatives to the Property and to any mill used by the Owner to process Products derived from the Property (provided that in the event such mill is not owned or controlled by the Owner, such right of access shall only be the same as any such right of access of the Owner); and

 

  (b) the right: (i) to monitor the stockpiling and milling of ore or Products derived from the Property and to take samples from the Property or from any mill or processor for the purposes of assay verifications; and (ii) to weigh or to cause the Owner to weigh all trucks transporting Products from the Property to any mill processing Products from the Property prior to dumping of such ore and immediately following such dumping.

 

The Royalty Holder shall defend, indemnify and hold the Owner harmless from and against any Losses for damage to property or injury to or death of Persons arising from any such inspection, except to the extent the same are caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Owner.
