As consideration for the termination of the Royalty Agreement, the Operator shall on the date first written above pay to RG Chile $345,000,000.00 in cash or other immediately available funds (the “Royalty Termination Payment”).

2.3Other Payments.

The Operator and RG Chile covenant and agree that, notwithstanding the termination of the Royalty Agreement and Irrevocable Mandate pursuant to Section 2.1,

(a)the following payments, without duplication, shall be made in cash or other immediately available funds within 15 days of the Termination Effective Date:

2

(ii)with respect to any copper concentrate produced from the Subject Properties that was shipped prior to the Termination Effective Date, but for which the Operator has not received or been credited with all provisional and final payments for the sale or disposition of such Subject Minerals under the relevant Metal Sales Contract, the Operator shall pay to RG Chile an amount equal to result of (A) the product obtained by multiplying (i) the Payable Subject Minerals in such copper concentrate, as determined solely by the weighing, sampling and assaying conducted by the Operator by (ii) 75% and then multiplying the resulting product by (iii) the Net Reference Price, minus, (B) the amount of any Royalty payment previously made by the Operator in respect of such copper concentrate.

(b)the Operator will reconcile, on an aggregate basis, any adjustments to the Royalty Statements as may be necessary for the calendar quarter ended June 30, 2015, in accordance with Section 4(c) of the Original Royalty Agreement.  In the event such an adjustment reflects:

(ii)an overpayment to RG Chile, the Operator shall provide notice to RG Chile of the amount of such overpayment and RG Chile will pay such overpayment to the Operator in cash or other immediately available funds within 10 days of the date in which the adjustment has been determined.

(c)For the avoidance of doubt, any payment that may be necessary by the Operator due to the fact that the average Payable Factor with respect to copper concentrate referred to in Section 2.3(a)(ii) is less than 90.6% is payable under Section 2.3(b) only, and not both Section 2.3(a)(ii) and (b).  Furthermore, there shall be no duplication of amounts payable under Section 2.3(a) and (b).
