The notes identified in this paragraph shall collectively be referred to as the
“BOCO Notes.”  The term “Loan Documents” shall include, without limitation, each
of the BOCO Notes and all documents relating to, entered into in connection
with, or otherwise affecting any of the BOCO Notes (including, without
limitation, the security therefore or the rights and obligations of BOCO and the
Company thereunder), regardless of whether such documents are specifically
mentioned herein; and

WHEREAS, all of the BOCO Notes are presently in default.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants of the
parties herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto mutually agree
as follows:

1.                  Waiver of Current Defaults.  Upon Closing and effective as
of the Effective Date hereof, BOCO waives all defaults currently existing under
any of the Loan Documents.  This is a one-time waiver and shall not in any way
affect or diminish BOCO’s rights or obligations in the event of the occurrence,
or recurrence, of any event of default under the BOCO Notes or the Loan
Documents after the Effective Date hereof.

2.                  Waiver of Default Interest.  Upon Closing and effective as
of the Effective Date hereof, BOCO waives its right to enforce and collect
default interest on the BOCO Notes for the period of time prior to the Effective
Date hereof.  This is a one-time waiver and shall not in any way affect or
diminish BOCO’s rights to enforce and collect default interest relative to any
event of default under the BOCO Notes or the Loan Documents after the Effective
Date hereof.

3.                  Conversion of Convertible Notes.  Upon Closing, all
principal and accrued and unpaid interest then due and owing under the May 2014
Note and June 2014 Note (excepting only such accrued default interest as has
been specifically waived in Paragraph 2 above) shall convert into the Company’s
common stock at the rate of $.12 per share (the “BOCO Conversion”).  Promptly
upon Closing, the Company shall issue to BOCO a stock certificate reflecting
BOCO’s ownership of the shares of the Company’s stock resulting from the BOCO
Conversion. 

2

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

 

4.                  Restructure and Amendment of BOCO Notes.  Upon Closing and
the completion of the BOCO Conversion described in Paragraph 3 above, certain of
the “Remaining Notes” (defined to include the September 2012 Note, the May 2013
Note, the June 2013 Note, the February 2014 Note, the May 2015 Note, the June
2015 Note, the March 2016 Note, the April 2016 Note, and all Loan Documents
associated with each of the foregoing) shall be amended as follows:

a)     The maturity dates of the May 2013, June 2013, May 2015, June 2015 and
March 2016 Notes shall be amended such that all principal, interest, and other
amounts owed thereunder shall be due and payable to BOCO on December 15, 2018;

b)     The May 2013, June 2013, February 2014, May 2015, June 2015, March 2016
and April 2016 Notes shall be amended to accrue interest from the Effective Date
hereof at the rate of 5% per annum, compounded annually based off of a 365-day
year. 

All payments shall be made in cash, certified check or by wire transfer to BOCO
at 262 E. Mountain Avenue, Fort Collins, CO 80524 or at such other place as BOCO
may designate in writing.  In the event of a default under this Agreement, the
Remaining Notes, or any of the other Loan Documents, the Remaining Notes shall
accrue default interest at the maximum rate allowable under Colorado law.  All
provisions of the Remaining Notes not specifically modified herein shall remain
in full force and effect and shall not be modified or affected in any way by
this Agreement.

5.                  Waiver of Conversion Rate Adjustment.  The September 2012
Note, as amended, gives BOCO the right to convert all amounts payable thereunder
into the Company’s common stock at an amount equal to the lesser of: a) Three
Dollars ($3.00) per share; or, b) “an amount equal to the lowest price at which
common shares in the Company are issued in any round of financing commencing
after the date of [the September 2012 Note] and prior to conversion” (the
“Ratcheting Conversion”).  In the event that any transaction occurring within
fifteen (15) business days after Closing (a “Triggering Transaction”) is deemed
to result in the issuance of the Company’s common stock at a price less than
twelve cents ($0.12) per share, BOCO agrees that the Ratcheting Conversion shall
not apply to the Triggering Transaction to the extent it requires a conversion
price lower than twelve cents ($0.12) per share.  In the event that any person
(including the Company, or any shareholder on the Company’s behalf) shall take
the position that this Paragraph 5 qualifies as a material amendment of the
September 2012 Note, or otherwise is sufficient to cause BOCO to incur liability
under the Securities Act of 1933 (as amended), any securities law, “blue sky”
law, or other similar law of any state of the United States or of any other
jurisdiction, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (including Section 16(b)
thereof, codified at 15 U.S.C. 78p) or common law, this Paragraph 5 shall be
deleted from this Agreement and made void ab initio, such that it is clear that
this Agreement does not modify the September 2012 Note in any way.

6.                  No Modification of BOCO Rights.  Except as expressly set
forth herein, this Agreement shall not waive, amend, modify, or otherwise affect
any right or obligation of BOCO under the Loan Documents or the BOCO Notes.  The
Loan Documents and the BOCO Notes, as expressly modified herein, remain in full
force and effect and are expressly reaffirmed by the Company herein.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

 

7.                  Appointment of Interim Directors.  The Company agrees to
promptly appoint Rick Bloom and Brian Klemsz as Directors of the Company and to
serve on the Company’s Board of Directors until the next election of Directors. 

8.                  BOCO Oversight Rights.  In addition to any covenants and
obligations set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, or in the Loan Documents, the
Company shall cooperate and take such action as is necessary to provide BOCO
with the following rights relative to oversight and observation of the Company’s
business and operations:

a)     Regular Operational Reporting.  The Company shall deliver the following
to BOCO on the first business day of each calendar week:

i)       Daily and weekly reports for the preceding week concerning ore
delivered to the mill;

ii)     Daily and weekly reports for the preceding week concerning ore processed
at the mill;

iii)   Daily and weekly reports for the preceding week concerning the gold and
silver smelted during that time period;

iv)   All security or other video(s) from the preceding week (including, but not
limited to, those recording activity in the room(s) in which the Company’s gold
and silver are stored and/or those recording all or part of the milling process,
including the gold table).

b)     Payroll Information.  Contemporaneous with the end of each pay period,
the Company shall deliver to BOCO a summary of:

i)        all employees, consultants or contractors paid during the pay period;

ii)      the hours worked by each;

iii)    the pay rate(s) applicable to each employee, consultant or contractor;
and,

iv)    copies of all bids or other information received by the Company and not
previously delivered to BOCO that bear upon the prevailing rate of pay for each
employee, consultant or contractor utilized by the Company.

c)     Administration of Polygraphs.  The Company shall require all of its
employees, contractors or consultants to contractually agree to submit to a
polygraph test at any time as a condition of, during, or following their
retention by the Company.  The Company shall conduct such polygraph tests (or
permit BOCO to conduct such tests at the Company’s expense) as part of
pre-employment screening, following the termination of employment, and at any
time during employment as requested by BOCO.  The Company shall provide BOCO
with the results of all such polygraph testing and shall not hire nor retain
individuals whose polygraph results prove them to be untruthful.  The Company
acknowledges and agrees that the signed contracts required by this Paragraph
8(c) shall explicitly provide that the failure to sign an agreement consenting
to polygraph examination, as set forth herein, or failing to submit to a
requested examination, shall be grounds for immediate termination of employment
with the Company.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

 

d)    Right to Inspect all Books and Records.  BOCO shall be entitled to inspect
any and all books and records of the Company upon 24 hours’ notice.  In
addition, the Company shall deliver to BOCO complete financials (including, but
not limited to, all balance sheets, summary pages, profit and loss reports,
asset and liability reports, account ledgers, bank account statements and
auditor’s reports) no later than 7 business days following the close of each
fiscal quarter (i.e., no later than 7 business days after each October 31st,
January 31st, April 30th and July 31st).  Provided information shall pertain to
all fiscal quarters then elapsed (i.e., at the end of the second fiscal quarter
of the year, the Company’s financial statements should include all financial
information, not previously disclosed in the exact same format, for quarters one
and two of that fiscal year.)

e)     Right to Observe all Meetings and Deliberations.  In addition to its
right to appoint  Board Members as set forth herein, BOCO shall be entitled to
have one or more of its authorized representatives attend and observe any and
all meetings of the Company or the Company’s Board however conducted, including
all portions of such meetings conducted in executive session (provided that
BOCO’s observer, if other than a BOCO appointed Board Member, shall agree on the
record prior to entering into such executive session that such observer shall
maintain the confidentiality of proceedings in the same).  The Company shall
provide BOCO with at least seven-days advance notice (or, if the meeting is not
set more than seven days in advance, notice contemporaneous with the setting of
the meeting) of all meetings of the Company (including scheduled meetings of one
or more of the Company’s employees, consultants or contractors) or the Company’s
Board.  In the event that any other law, rule, regulation, or provision of this
or any other Agreement requires a longer notice period, nothing herein shall
operate to shorten the notice period or excuse the requirement to abide by the
same.

f)      Right to inspect operations.  BOCO shall have the right to have one or
more of its authorized representatives visit, inspect, and/or observe any and
all of the Company’s operations at any time.  BOCO and its representatives shall
use reasonable efforts not to interfere with operations during such inspections.

g)     Other Actions as Directed by BOCO.  BOCO shall have the right to direct
the Company to adopt other processes, procedures and reporting as BOCO may
request, in its sole and absolute discretion, to protect and preserve the
Company’s assets and the integrity of its operations.  Such other measures shall
become conditions of this Agreement, the violation of which shall be subject to
the default provisions and remedies set forth herein.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

 

The Company agrees to pay all reasonable costs and fees incurred by BOCO in
exercising the Oversight Rights set forth above.

9.                 BOCO Security.  The Company’s obligations under this
Agreement and the Remaining Notes are secured by: 1) that certain Security
Agreement by and between the Company and BOCO dated June 27th, 2013 (“Security
Agreement”); 2) that Security and Inter-Creditor Agreement having an effective
date of May 15, 2015; and, 3) to the extent set forth therein, any other
security agreement previously entered into between BOCO and the Company and
pertaining to any one or more of the BOCO Notes or Remaining Notes. 
Specifically, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the term
“Transaction Agreements” as defined in the Security Agreement is amended to
include this Agreement, all of the BOCO Notes, Loan Documents, Remaining Notes
and Ratified Agreements.  The Parties recognize that this amendment has the
effect of including all obligations of any kind or nature arising out of or in
connection with any of the foregoing documents within the term “Obligations” as
such term is defined in the Security Agreement.

10.              Interest Savings Clause.  Notwithstanding any other provision
of the Remaining Notes, this Agreement, or any other document executed in
conjunction with or relating to the same, interest payable to BOCO shall not
exceed the maximum rate permitted by law; and if any amount is paid as interest
in excess of such maximum rate, then the amount so paid will not constitute
interest but will constitute a payment on account of the principal amount of the
Remaining Notes. 

11.              Additional Loan Covenants.  Until all sums due from the Company
to BOCO (whether not existing or advanced in the future) are paid in full, the
Company agrees and covenants as follows:

production at prevailing market rates, the Company shall not undertake any
disposition of material assets without Lender’s prior written consent, which may
be withheld in Lender’s sole and absolute discretion;

b)                  The Company shall deliver its current budget (delineated on
monthly, year-to-date and annual basis) for Lender’s written approval (the

Company shall not incur expenses, whether individually or in aggregate, greater
than 110% of the Lender Approved Budget;

c)                  The Company shall deliver to the Lender the Company’s
unaudited monthly financial reports, in a form reasonably acceptable to the
Lender, within seven (7) business days after the end of each month;

discretion;

6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

 

e)                  The Company shall not increase the compensation, benefits or
other remuneration payable to any employee or contractor or hire any new
employee or contractor that is not included in the Lender Approved Budget
without the written consent of the Lender, which may be withheld in Lender’s
sole and absolute discretion;

f)                   The Company shall not enter into any agreement for goods or
services (either individually, or in the aggregate with a single vendor or
provider) in excess of $25,000 that is not included in the Lender Approved
Budget without the Lender’s prior written approval, which may be withheld in
Lender’s sole and absolute discretion;

g)                  The Company shall provide the Lender with such information
and documentation as the Lender may request with respect to the Company’s
expenditures, operations, agreements, and liabilities within three business days
following Lender’s request for the same;

h)                  So long as the Company shall have any obligation under this
Agreement or the Remaining Notes, the Company shall not, without BOCO’s written
consent which may be withheld in BOCO’s sole and absolute discretion, lend
money, give credit or make advances to any person, firm, joint venture or
corporation or other entity, including, without limitation, officers, directors,
employees, subsidiaries and affiliates of the Company, except loans, credits or
advances in existence or committed on the date hereof and which the Company has
informed BOCO in writing prior to the date hereof.

i)                    So long as the Company shall have any obligation under
this Agreement or the Remaining Notes, the Company shall not, without BOCO’s
written consent which may be withheld in BOCO’s sole and absolute discretion,
assume, guarantee, endorse, contingently agree to purchase or otherwise become
liable upon the obligation of any person, firm, partnership, joint venture or
corporation, except by the endorsement of negotiable instruments for deposit or
collection and except assumptions, guarantees, endorsement and contingencies in
existence or committed on the date hereof and which the Company has informed
BOCO in writing prior to the date hereof.

j)                    In the event there is a breach of this Agreement, the
Remaining Notes, or any other obligation or agreement involving Lender and the
Company, the Company shall provide the Lender written notice of any such breach
within three business days after the occurrence of the same.

k)                  The Company shall not sell or issue any equity securities,
nor any securities that may be converted into an equity interest in the Company,
without the prior written approval of BOCO which may be granted or withheld in
BOCO’s sole and absolute discretion.

l)                    The Company shall not issue any check, wire transfer or
other payment in excess of $1,000 (either individually, or in the aggregate to

12.              Waiver of Claims.  As part of the consideration for the waivers
set forth in Paragraphs 1 and 2 hereof, and effective upon Closing, the Company
forever waives, releases and discharges any and all claims, causes of action,

herein, the Company represents and warrants that it has conducted such
investigation concerning the transactions contemplated and/or evidenced by this
Agreement, the Loan Documents, or the BOCO Notes as is necessary to identify any
claims accruing as a result of the completion of the same, making the waiver and
release set forth in this Paragraph 12 a knowing and voluntary waiver and
release of known and accrued claims.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

15.             Cross Default.  Any Event of Default hereunder shall also
constitute a default under, and breach of, any and all other agreements and
obligations to which the Company and BOCO are parties (including, without
limitations, the Remaining Notes) so as to trigger BOCO’s rights in the event of
default under any and all such agreements.

16.             Rights in the Event of Default.  Upon the occurrence or
existence of any Event of Default, immediately and without notice, all
outstanding obligations payable by Borrower hereunder shall automatically become
immediately due and payable.  In addition to and not in lieu of the foregoing
remedies, upon the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default, BOCO may
exercise all other rights, powers or remedies granted to it under this
Agreement, the Remaining Notes, or otherwise permitted to it by agreement or by
operation of law (including but not limited to foreclosure of the security
interest granted in the Security Agreement), either by suit in equity or by
action at law, or both, all such remedies being cumulative. 

17.             BOCO Right to Appoint Receiver.  Upon the occurrence of any
Event of Default and at any time thereafter, BOCO may appoint by instrument a
receiver, receiver and manager, or receiver-manager (the person so appointed is
called the "Receiver") of the security for the Company’s obligations under the
Remaining Notes (the “Collateral”), with or without bond as BOCO may determine,
and from time to time in BOCO’s absolute discretion remove such Receiver and
appoint another in its stead.  A Receiver appointed under this Agreement shall
be the agent of the Company and not of BOCO, and BOCO shall not be in any way
responsible for any misconduct, negligence or nonfeasance on the part of any
Receiver, its servants, agents, or employees. A Receiver shall, to the extent
permitted by law or to such lesser extent permitted by its appointment, have all
the powers of BOCO under this Agreement and any of the security agreements
referenced in Paragraph 9 hereof, and in addition shall have power to carry on
the business of the Company and for such purpose to enter upon, use, and occupy
all premises owned or occupied by the Company in which Collateral may be
situate; use, maintain, license, and sell the Collateral directly or indirectly
in carrying on the Company’s business; and from time to time borrow money either
unsecured or secured by a security interest in any of the Collateral.  The
Company irrevocably appoints the Receiver with full power of substitution, to be
the attorney of the Company for and in the name of the Company to sign, endorse,
or execute under seal or otherwise any deeds, documents, transfers, checks,
instruments, demands, assignments, assurances, or consents that the Company is
obliged to sign, endorse, or execute, and generally to use the name of the
Company and to do all things as may be necessary or incidental to the exercise
of all or any of the power conferred on the Receiver, as the case may be, under
this Agreement. BOCO and Receiver shall cause any sale of property (other than
refined gold and silver, which may be sold in arms-length transactions in the
ordinary course of business) to be at public auction, with reasonable advance
written notice to other creditors and shareholders of the Company. BOCO shall
have the right to become the purchaser at any sale held by the Receiver or by
any court, receiver or public officer, and BOCO shall have the right to credit
upon the amount of the bid made therefor all or part of any amount payable under
any obligation due and owing from the Company to BOCO (including, without
limitation, under this Agreement and the Remaining Notes).  Recitals contained
in any covenant made to any purchaser at any sale made hereunder shall
conclusively establish the truth and accuracy of the matters therein stated,
including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, non-payment of the
unpaid principal sum of, and the interest accrued on, the indebtedness after the
same has become due and payable, and advertisement and conduct of such sale in
the manner provided herein.

10

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Upon any sale, whether made under the power of sale herein granted and conferred
or by judicial proceedings, the receipt of the Receiver, or of the officer
making sale under judicial proceedings, shall be sufficient to discharge the
purchaser or purchasers at any sale for his or their purchase money, and such
purchaser or purchasers, his or their assigns or personal representatives, shall
not, after paying such purchase money and receiving such receipt of the Receiver
(or of such officer making the sale), be obligated to see the application of
such purchase money, or be in any way answerable for any loss, misapplication or
non-application thereof.  Any sale or sales of the Collateral, whether under the
power of sale herein granted and conferred or by virtue of judicial proceedings,
shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever
either at law or in equity, of the Company of, in and to the property sold, and
shall be a perpetual bar, both at law and in equity, against the Company,
Company's successors or assigns and against any and all persons claiming or who
shall thereafter claim all or any of the property sold from, through or under
the Company or Company's successors or assigns; nevertheless, the Company, if so
requested by BOCO or the Receiver, shall join in the execution and delivery of
all property conveyances, assignments and transfers of the properties so sold.
The Company agrees, to the full extent that the Company may lawfully so agree,
that the Company will not at any time insist upon or plead or in any manner
whatever claim the benefit of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or
redemption law now or hereafter in force, in order to prevent or hinder the
enforcement or foreclosure of this Agreement or the sale of the Collateral or
the possession thereof by any purchaser at any sale made pursuant to any
provision hereof; and the Company, for Company and all who may claim through or
under Company now or hereafter, hereby waives the benefit of all such laws. The
Company, for the Company and all who may claim through or under Company, waives
any and all right to have the Collateral marshaled upon any foreclosure of the
lien or security interest set forth herein or in the security agreements
referenced in Paragraph 9 hereof, or sold in inverse order of alienation, and
agrees that BOCO, the Receiver, or any court having jurisdiction to foreclose
such lien or security interest may sell the Collateral as an entirety. Any
proceeds of any disposition of all or any part of the Collateral may be applied
by BOCO or the Receiver toward payment of the Company’s obligations to BOCO  in
such order of application as BOCO may direct in its sole and absolute discretion
(except that proceeds from the limited collateral described in the Security and
Inter-Creditor Agreement with effective date of May 15, 2015 shall be disbursed
in proportion to the security interests granted therein, for so long as such
Security and Inter-Creditor Agreement remains operative and in effect in
accordance with its terms).

unconditionally waives notice of default, presentment or demand for payment,
protest or notice of nonpayment or dishonor and all other notices or demands
relative to this Agreement or the Remaining Notes.  

19.             BOCO Non-Waiver.  No failure by BOCO to exercise, or delay by
BOCO in exercising, any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof or of any other right or remedy and no single or partial exercise of any
right or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any
other right or remedy.  BOCO may not waive any of its rights under this
Agreement except by an instrument in writing signed by it.
