 WATER AND UTILITIES JOINT USE AGREEMENT 

This WATER AND UTILITIES JOINT USE AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made and entered into effective as of the Closing Date, by and
between EAGLE MOUNTAIN MINING & RAILROAD COMPANY, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“EMMR”) and KAISER EAGLE MOUNTAIN, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“KEM”). EMMR and KEM are sometimes
referred to as the “Parties”, or individually as a “Party”. 
 R E C I T A L S 

A. On the Closing Date, Eagle Mountain Acquisition, LLC (“EML”) purchased KEM from CIL&D, LLC
(“CIL&D”) pursuant to that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement between Eagle Mountain Acquisition LLC, CIL&D and certain other parties dated June 25, 2015 (the “PA”). KEM owns or controls certain real
property, mining claims, rights-of-way, easements, buildings, houses, facilities, and mining rights, minerals, rock, rock products and other items related to the Eagle Mountain mine located in Riverside County, California (collectively the
“Eagle Mountain Property”) as described in EXHIBIT “A” attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. 

B. Eagle Crest Energy Company (“Eagle Crest”) is the developer of hydro-electric and water storage projects that,
along with other activities related thereto, would be developed, constructed, maintained and operated on portions of the Eagle Mountain Property as described in EXHIBIT
“B” attached hereto (the “Project”). 
 C. In order to effectuate the transactions contemplated by
the PA, in addition to this Agreement, the Parties are entering into the following documents relating to the Eagle Mountain Property: (i) Mining Lease and Agreement (the “Mining Agreement”), (ii) Eagle Mountain Railroad
Agreement (the “Railroad Agreement”) and (iii) Master Access and Joint Use Agreement (the “Access Agreement”) (collectively with this Agreement, the “Transaction Agreements”). The exercise of
the rights and performance of the obligations of EMMR pursuant to the Mining Agreement, the Railroad Agreement and the Access Agreement require from time-to-time the use of certain utilities such as water, gas and electricity. 

D. On or serving the Eagle Mountain Property are various utility systems, facilities and equipment which provide, deliver, or serve
water, electricity, gas, sanitary sewer, phone, flood control and surface water control, and fuel services (all such items and services are collectively referred to herein as “Utilities”) for the benefit of the Eagle Mountain
Property and the activities now or in the future conducted thereon or associated therewith. Such utility systems, facilities and equipment include, but are not limited to, active and inactive groundwater production wells (the
“Wells”), upatented mill sites and rights of way (each to the extent owned by KEM and associated with the Wells), pumping rights, booster stations, a four million gallon reservoir, a one million gallon reservoir, and two 500,000
gallon storage reservoirs/tanks (collectively with the Wells, the “Water System”), two electrical substations (one owned by Southern California Edison), electrical distribution lines, transformers, a sewage/waste water treatment
plant, a high pressure natural gas line, a 20,000 gallon diesel tank and related dispensing equipment, drains, pipes, culverts and ditches used for flood and surface water control, along with associated lines, connections, valves, pumps, pipelines,
and other similar facilities and equipment as generally depicted in EXHIBIT “C” (collectively the “Utility Systems”). The Utility Systems
include those changes, alterations, replacements and improvements made to the Utility Systems made in the future. The Utility Systems do not, however, include any water wells, pipelines, water treatment facilities, and electrical generation and
distribution facilities which are built or installed by KEM or Eagle Crest after the Closing Date only for the purposes of developing, constructing and operating the Project unless the Parties otherwise agree in writing.

 E. Most of the Eagle Mountain Property overlies the Chuckwalla Groundwater Basin (the
“Chuckwalla Basin”). As of the date of this Agreement, the Chuckwalla Basin has not been adjudicated. From 1965 to 1985, approximately 3,555 annual acre feet of groundwater was pumped from the Chuckwalla Basin in connection with the
operation of the Eagle Mountain mine and the Eagle Mountain townsite located on the Eagle Mountain Property (collectively the “Mine”), and related activities. In addition, from 1960 to 1985, approximately 2,694 annual acre feet of
groundwater were pumped from the Pinto Basin in connection with the Mine and related activities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, these historical amounts are not intended to create any expectation of future water supply to
either Party.

3. GRANT OF USE AND SERVICE. In addition to
any other rights granted pursuant to other Transaction Documents, subject to the provisions of Section 5 of this Agreement and any applicable specific provision of a Transaction Document, KEM hereby grants to EMMR the right to receive and use
Utilities and to use the Utility Systems within the Operations Area, Rock Areas and Tailings Area as reasonably necessary in order to exercise EMMR’s rights and perform EMMR’s obligations under the Mining Agreement, Railroad Agreement and
the Access Agreement. In addition, as provided in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document, EMMR shall have a right of entry over those lands on which the Utility Systems are located as reasonably necessary to utilize the Utility Systems
as well as undertake any additions, repairs or maintenance to the Utility Systems that it may make. 
 4. PRIORITY
OF USE OF WATER. The priority of use of water from the Wells and Water System shall be as follows: (i) First, to KEM for use at the Eagle Mountain Property up its highest level of
historical, annual use for non-mining activities over the five (5) years prior to the Effective Date; (ii) Second, to the Eagle Mountain School up to its highest level of historical, annual use over the five (5) years prior to the
Effective Date; (iii) Third, to EMMR for use in connection with Above-Ground Mining Activities (as defined in the Mining Agreement), not to exceed 1,000 acre feet per year without further approval by KEM and without further agreement between
KEM and EMMR regarding any reasonably necessary capital or operational upgrades; and (iv) Fourth, thereafter to KEM for any reasonable use. Beyond the priority of use of water as provided in this Section 4, there shall be no priority of
use of the Utilities or the Utility Systems; provided however, that EMMR’s use of the Utilities and Utility Systems shall not be permitted to create Project Interference; provided further that there shall be a presumption that the current level
and manner of 

  
 4 








 
use of the Utilities and the Utility Systems by EMMR does not result in Project Interference. Notwithstanding the priority of use described herein, nothing in this Agreement shall guaranty any
Party the same quantity of water as delivered by Wells and Water Systems as of the date of this Agreement. To the extent any Party requires more water than such Party receives from the Wells and Water Systems in their then-existing state, upgrades
and improvements may be performed pursuant to the terms of Section 9 below. 
 5. COLLABORATION,
COORDINATION AND OPERATION PROBLEMS. KEM and EMMR agree to work in good faith and to make commercially reasonable efforts to minimize Project Interference
and in their joint use and simultaneous use of the Utilities and Utility Systems, including their access to and through the Operations Area, Rock Areas and Tailings Area. However, if Project Interference cannot be commercially reasonably avoided or
resolved, then the Project shall have priority of use and access and EMMR shall cease or modify any activity that is causing any Project Interference. In the event of any operational problem involving any of the Utility Systems, either Party shall
notify the other Party as soon as reasonably possible. If the situation is not corrected by the Party responsible for the repair under Section 7 below within forty-eight (48) hours following such notice, the non-responsible Party may take
such actions and expend such sums as reasonably necessary to correct the operational problem and to comply with applicable requirements of Laws. All costs expended by a Party to correct an operational problem which was the responsibility of the
other Party as provided herein shall be for the other Party’s account and the other Party shall reimburse the correcting Party within thirty (30) days of being tendered the reasonable costs to cure with reasonable supporting documentation.

 6. COMPENSATION FOR USE OF UTILITIES. EMMR shall
reimburse KEM for the Utilities actually used by EMMR or any of its employees, agents, consultants, contractors, subcontractors and representatives (collectively “EMMR Parties”) at KEM’s actual cost of the Utilities, without
mark-up or profit. EMMR shall pay for the Utilities it uses within thirty (30) days following the receipt of an invoice therefore. In the event any invoice is not paid as provided herein, it shall accrue interest at the rate of ten percent
(10%) per annum until paid in full. 
 7. PAYMENT OF MAINTENANCE
AND REPAIRS GENERALLY. Except as otherwise provided herein (including but not limited to the provisions of Section 9 below) and except as the Parties may otherwise agree in writing, KEM shall be
responsible at its sole cost and expense for the repair and maintenance of the Utility Systems in order to keep the Utility Systems in substantially their same, current condition and functioning at their current capacity. However, if EMMR or EMMR
Parties are using the Utilities and Utility Systems in a significant manner (with respect to either quantity or frequency), each Party shall then pay its respective “fair share” (based on intensity of use) of the actual cost of the repairs
and maintenance of the Utility Systems during the period of such use. Each Party’s fair share for maintenance shall be mutually determined by EMMR and KEM; provided, however, that if the Parties are unable to agree as to a fair share allocation
within (60) days after written notice by a Party requesting negotiation of a fair share allocation, the fair share of each Party shall be determined as follows: the total maintenance or repair cost for a particular Utility System shall be
calculated for the proceeding twelve (12) months (or for such other appropriate applicable shorter period of time) and such total amount shall be allocated between the Parties based upon the ratio of each the Utilities used or consumed by each
Party (which shall include the use by each Party’s employees, agents, contractors, subcontractors and representatives) to the total Utilities used or consumed during such time period. If a Party’s usage of a particular Utility is not
known, the Parties shall agree in good faith on a reasonable estimate of the total for each Party. Each Party’s percentage shall then be applied as such Party’s fair share of the maintenance and repair costs incurred for the particular
Utility System during the applicable period. For example, if EMMR is the only Party that actually uses natural gas during the applicable time 

  
 5 








 
period, EMMR would be responsible for one hundred percent (100%) of the repairs and maintenance of the particular Utility System for natural gas. As another example, if EMMR uses 1,000,000
gallons of water and KEM uses 4,000,000 gallons of water during an applicable period, EMMR’s proportional fair share would be twenty percent (20%) calculated as 1,000,000/5,000,000 and KEM’s proportional fair share would be eighty
percent (80%) calculated as 4,000,000/5,000,000. Each Party agrees to provide and grant access to the other Party on a confidential basis to all records that are required to determine a Party’s fair share, if the Parties are not able to
reach mutual agreement as to each Party’s fair share. Each Party shall be responsible, at its sole cost and expense, for the repair of any damage (other than wear and tear associated with normal use) it causes to the Utility Systems, including
any damage caused by its own negligence or that of its employees, agents, contractors, subcontractors or representatives. 
 8.
RESERVED. 
 9. IMPROVEMENTS TO UTILITY SYSTEMS. KEM
and EMMR shall have the right to upgrade and improve any or all of the Utility Systems to increase capacity or performance. The Party desiring to upgrade and/or improve a particular Utility System shall: (i) submit detailed plans and timeline
for such upgrade or improvement (a “Work Plan”) to the other Party for review, and only in the case that EMMR is the Party proposing such upgrade or improvement, approval by KEM, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed; and (ii) shall pay the full costs of the upgrade and/or improvement unless the Parties enter into a written agreement that provides otherwise. The Party receiving the proposed Work Plan shall have up to thirty
(30) days in which to review and provide comments. Nothing in the Agreement shall compel or obligate either KEM or EMMR to upgrade or improve a Utility System. For the avoidance of doubt, it shall not be deemed unreasonable for KEM to withhold
its approval of a particular Work Plan if such Work Plan could be reasonably expected to cause Project Interference. Any improvements and activities performed pursuant to an approved Work Plan shall still be subject to the terms of Section 5
above. 
 10. DOCUMENTATION OF MODIFICATIONS. The Parties will
appropriately document any rehabilitation, repairs, maintenance, improvement or upgrades the Utility Systems and provide such information to each other. 

11. LIENS 

11.1 EMMR’S OBLIGATIONS WITH RESPECT TO
LIENS. EMMR shall not suffer or permit to be enforced against the Eagle Mountain Property, or any part thereof, any mechanics’, materialmen’s, contractors’ or subcontractors’
lien arising from its use of the Utility Systems or any other work performed on behalf of or for the benefit of EMMR related to the Utility Systems (other than inchoate liens that arise by operation of law but which are not presently exercisable).
EMMR shall pay or cause to be paid all of said liens, or demands before any action is brought to enforce the same against the Eagle Mountain Property. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, if EMMR shall in good faith contest the
validity of any such lien, claim or demand, then EMMR shall, at its expense, defend itself and KEM against the same and shall pay and satisfy any adverse judgment that may be rendered thereon before any enforcement thereof against KEM or the Eagle
Mountain Property, but only upon the condition that if KEM shall so require, EMMR shall procure and record or furnish to KEM a surety bond or other acceptable security satisfactory to KEM in an amount at least equal to such contested lien, claim or
demand indemnifying KEM against liability for the same, and holding the Eagle Mountain Property free from the effect of any such lien or claim. KEM reserves the right at any time and from time to time to post and maintain on said Eagle Mountain
Property or any portion thereof or improvement thereon, such notices of non-responsibility or otherwise as may be necessary to protect KEM against liability for all such liens and claims. 

  
 6 








 11.2 KEM’S OBLIGATIONS WITH
RESPECT TO LIENS. KEM shall not suffer or permit to be enforced against the Utility Systems, or any part thereof, any mechanics’, materialmen’s, contractors’ or subcontractors’
lien arising from the activities of KEM or any other work performed on behalf of or for the benefit of the Project (other than inchoate liens that arise by operation of law but which are not presently exercisable). KEM shall pay or cause to be paid
all of said liens, claims or demands before any action is brought to enforce the same against the Utility Systems. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, if KEM shall in good faith contest the validity of any such lien, claim or
demand, then KEM shall, at its expense, defend itself and EMMR against the same and shall pay and satisfy any adverse judgment that may be rendered thereon before any enforcement thereof against KEM or the Utility Systems but only upon the condition
that if EMMR shall so require, KEM shall procure and record or furnish to EMMR a surety bond or other acceptable security satisfactory to EMMR in an amount at least equal to such contested lien, claim or demand indemnifying EMMR against liability
for the same, and holding the Utility Systems free from the effect of any such lien or claim. EMMR reserves the right at any time and from time to time to post and maintain on said Utility Systems any portion thereof or improvement thereon, such
notices of non-responsibility or otherwise as may be necessary to protect EMMR against liability for all such liens and claims. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein and for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 11.2 shall
preclude in any way KEM’s rights to grant a lien to its Financing Parties in connection with the financing or refinancing of the Project. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Financing Parties” means, with respect to KEM, the agent or
lead bank and any other financial institutions party to a loan agreement, indenture, credit agreement, hedge agreement, tax equity financing documents or other debt, equity or other type of financing instrument with KEM, which may be secured in part
by KEM’s share of, or interest in, the Project or all or a portion of KEM’s interest in the Eagle Mountain Property. Financing Parties shall not include any Affiliate of KEM. 

12. LEGAL COMPLIANCE AND LICENSES 

12.1 EMMR’S COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS AND
LICENSES. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or in other Transaction Agreements, EMMR, shall at its cost and expense comply with the Laws applicable to its actual use as well as any maintenance, rehabilitation,

misconduct of the KEM Indemnitee, or (z) to the extent the KEM Losses are caused by or attributable to any breach of this Agreement by KEM or its Affiliates or subcontractors. Without limiting the foregoing, until the total of KEM Losses exceed
One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) no claim for indemnification may be made by KEM hereunder and if the KEM Losses exceed the One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) basket, KEM may only seek to recover amounts over the Fifty Thousand Dollars
($50,000) de minimis threshold. 
 15.2 INDEMNIFICATION BY KEM. KEM shall indemnify, defend and
hold EMMR and its current and future Affiliates and its and their respective current and future employees, officers, shareholders, members, directors, managers, agents, and representatives, and its and their respective successors and assigns
(collectively, the “EMMR Indemnitees”) harmless from and against any loss, damage, injury, death, accident, fire or other casualty, liability, claim, fine, penalty, fee, cost or expense (including but not limited to, Legal Expenses
and the reasonable fees of other professionals) of any kind or character to any person or property, including the property of the EMMR Indemnitees, but excluding any lost profits, consequential, special or punitive damages (other than those required
to be paid to a third party pursuant to a third party claim) (together, the “EMMR Losses”, and, together with the KEM Losses, “Losses”), arising from, relating to or caused by: (a) the construction, maintenance
or operation of the Project; (b) use of the Utilities or Utility Systems by KEM or its Affiliates; (c) any negligent or willful act or omission of KEM, its Affiliates, contractors or agents; (d) any violation or alleged violation by
KEM of the applicable Laws (including any applicable Environmental Laws); and (e) any breach by KEM of its obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, KEM will have no obligation to indemnify an EMMR Indemnitee for any EMMR Loss or
group of items of EMMR Loss arising out of the same event (x) where the total EMMR Loss is less than Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) (y) to the extent the EMMR Losses are caused by or attributable to the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of the EMMR Indemnitee, or (z) to the extent the EMMR Losses are caused by or attributable to any breach of this Agreement by EMMR or its Affiliates or subcontractors. Without limiting the forgoing, until the total of all EMMR Losses
exceed One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) no claim for indemnification may be made by EMMR hereunder and if the EMMR Losses exceed the One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) basket, EMMR may only seek to recover amounts over the Fifty Thousand
Dollars ($50,000) de minimis threshold.

 15.3 INDEMNIFICATION PROCEDURES.  

15.3.1 NOTICE OF A CLAIM. As
promptly as practicable, and in any event within thirty (30) days, after a Party shall receive any notice of, or otherwise become aware of, the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, the assertion of any claim, the occurrence of any
event, the existence of any fact or circumstance, or the incurrence of any Losses, for which indemnification is provided for, by Section 15.1 or 15.2 (an “Indemnification Event”), the Party entitled to such indemnification (an
“Indemnified Party”) shall give written notice (an “Indemnification Claim”) to the Party from which such indemnification is (or, under such assumption, could be) sought (an “Indemnifying Party”)
describing in reasonable detail the Indemnification Event and the basis on which indemnification is (or, under such assumption, could be) sought. If the Indemnifying Party is not so notified by the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days
after the date of the receipt by the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates of notice of, or of the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates otherwise becoming aware of, any particular Indemnification Event, to the extent that such
Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced as a consequence of such failure, the Indemnifying Party shall be relieved of all liability hereunder in respect of such Indemnification Event, and in the event that such Indemnifying Party is materially
prejudiced or harmed as a consequence of such failure the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any expenses directly related to the Losses from such Indemnification Event incurred during the period in which the Indemnified Party was overdue in
giving, and had not given, such notice. 
 15.3.2 DEFENSE OF A
CLAIM. If any Indemnification Event involves the claim of any third party (a “Third-Party Claim”), the Indemnifying Party (the “Controlling Person”) shall
(whether or not the Indemnified Party is entitled to claim indemnification under Section 15.1 or 15.2, as the case may be) be entitled to, and the Indemnified Party shall provide the Controlling Person with the right to, participate in, and
assume sole control over, the defense and settlement of such Third-Party Claim (with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party); provided, however, that (i) the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of
such Third-Party Claim and to employ counsel at its own expense to assist in the handling of such Third-Party Claim, and (ii) the Controlling Person shall obtain the prior written approval of the Indemnified Party before entering into any
settlement of such Third-Party Claim or ceasing to defend against such Third-Party Claim if (x) as a result of such settlement, consenting to the entry of any judgment or ceasing to defend, injunctive relief or other equitable relief would be
imposed against the Indemnified Party, (y) in the case of a settlement or consenting to the entry of any judgment, the Indemnified Party would not thereby receive from the claimant an unconditional release from all further liability and
obligations in respect of such Third-Party Claim or (z) as a result of such settlement, consenting to the entry of any judgment or ceasing to defend, may reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on the affected business of the
Indemnified Party. After written notice by the Controlling Person to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume control of the defense of any such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable hereunder to indemnify any Person
for any Legal Expenses subsequently incurred in connection therewith. If the Controlling Person does not assume sole control over the defense or settlement of such Third-Party Claim as provided in this Section 15.3.2 within a reasonable period
of time, or, after assuming such control, fails to defend against such Third-Party Claim (it being agreed that settlement of such Third-Party Claim does not constitute such a failure to defend), the Indemnified Party shall have the right (as to
itself) to defend and, upon obtaining the written consent of the Controlling Person, settle the claim in such manner as it may deem appropriate, and the Indemnifying Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnified Party therefor in accordance with
(and to the extent provided for in) Section 15.1 or 15.2, as appropriate. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this 

  
 11 








 
Section 15.3.2, the Indemnified Party shall have the right at all times to take over and assume the control (as to itself) of the defense or settlement of any Third-Party Claim; provided,
however, that in such event the Indemnifying Party shall cease to have any obligation under Section 15.1 or 15.2, as the case may be, in respect of such Third-Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable under this Section 15
for any settlement or compromise effected without its consent. 
 15.3.3 COOPERATION;
MITIGATION. The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall each cooperate fully (and shall each cause its Affiliates to cooperate fully) with the other in the defense or prosecution of
any Third-Party Claim pursuant to Section 15.3.2. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each such Person shall furnish the other such Person (at the expense of the Indemnifying Party) with such documentary or other evidence as is
then in its or any of its Affiliates’ possession and such other information and testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials or appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith as may reasonably
be requested by the other Person for the purpose of defending against any such Third-Party Claim. The Parties hereby agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any Loss that may be incurred in accordance with applicable Laws. 

15.3.4 SUBROGATION. Upon payment of any amount pursuant to any
Indemnification Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to all of the Indemnified Party’s rights of recovery against any third party with respect to the matters to which such Indemnification Claim
relates. 
 15.3.5 RECOVERY. If at any time subsequent to the receipt by
an Indemnified Party of an indemnity payment hereunder, such Indemnified Party (or any Affiliate thereof) receives any recovery, settlement or other similar payment with respect to the Losses for which it received such indemnity payment (including,
without limitation, under any insurance policy for which a claim is made under Section 15.3.6) (a “Recovery”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly pay to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to the amount of such Recovery,
less any expense incurred by such Indemnified Party (or its Affiliates) in connection with such Recovery, but in no event shall any such payment exceed the amount of such indemnity payment. 

15.3.6 NO LIMITATION. Nothing in this Section 15 shall
be deemed to prevent a Party from making a claim under any available insurance policy, in addition to pursuing indemnification under this Agreement. 

15.3.7 NO RIGHT OF OFFSET.
Neither KEM nor any other KEM Indemnitee shall have any right-of-off set, including, but not limited to, under this Section 15, against any amounts that may now or hereafter be owed to CIL&D (or its successors and assigns) by Buyer, KEM,
KEM’s Affiliates and any other party guarantying of securing any such amounts including, but not limited to, the $4.25 million note and the $19 million Note, as defined in the PA. 

15.4 LIMITATION ON LIABILITY. KEM shall not be liable to EMMR for failure to
furnish Utilities to or for the benefit of EMMR if the failure results from: (i) acts of God; (ii) strikes, lockouts, or other labor disputes; (iii) criminal actions by third parties; (iv) inability to obtain from third parties a
proper supply of Utilities or labor, parts or equipment after commercially reasonable efforts; (v) damage to a Utility System caused by EMMR and (vi) any other cause beyond KEM’s reasonable control (including actions of government or
governmental agencies). 

  
 12 








 16. TERM. 

16.1 INITIAL TERM. The initial term of this Agreement shall be for a period of forty
(40) years from the Closing Date (“Initial Term”) unless sooner terminated as provided in this Agreement. 

16.2 EXTENSION OF TERM. If at the end of the Initial Term of this
Agreement, the Mining Agreement has been extended as provided pursuant to the terms of the Mining Agreement, then this Agreement shall be automatically extended for up to three (3) additional twenty (20) year periods, provided that EMMR is
not then in material default under this Agreement beyond any applicable notice and cure periods, and provided further that such default is cured within such cure period. Should EMMR have any continuing obligations under the Mining Agreement after
the expiration or termination of the Mining Agreement (for example, reclamation obligations) that require the use of Utilities or the Utility Systems, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith such additional extensions of this Agreement as shall be
required for EMMR to perform such obligations. 
 17. DEFAULT. The occurrence of any of the following
events shall constitute an “Event of Default”: 
 17.1 NON-PAYMENT OF
MONETARY OBLIGATION. Either Party’s failure to pay any monetary amount payable under this Agreement when due, where such delinquency continues for more than ten (10) days after receipt of written
notice that such payment is delinquent. 
 17.2 BREACH OF OBLIGATIONS
UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR OTHER TRANSACTION AGREEMENTS. Failure (i) to perform by a Party any of its obligations hereunder (other
than monetary payment obligations as set forth in Section 17.1) or under any of the Transaction Agreements in any material respect, and (ii) to remedy such failure within thirty (30) days after written demand is made therefore by the
nondefaulting Party; provided, however, that if the failure to remedy such default is not curable within such thirty (30) day period by the defaulting Party by using commercially reasonable efforts, such thirty (30) day
period shall be extended for the period reasonably required to cure the failure so long as (a) the breaching Party is exercising diligence to effectuate a cure as soon as is reasonably practicable and (b) such extended cure period could
not be expected to have a material and adverse impact on the non-breaching Party (including Project Interference). 
 17.3
ASSIGNMENTS. The making of a general assignment by a Party for the benefit of its creditors (other than in the case of KEM to its Financing Parties as permitted in accordance with this Agreement). 

17.4 BANKRUPTCY. The filing of any form of voluntary petition in bankruptcy by a
Party or the filing of any involuntary petition by a Party’s creditors, if such petition remains not discharged within a period of sixty (60) days.

substantially all of a Party’s assets, if such receivership is not dissolved within a period of sixty (60) days. 
 17.6

sixty (60) days after the levy thereof.

maintain the minimum insurance required by Section 14 hereof at all times and such failure is not cured within thirty (30) days following receipt of notice. 

  
 13 








 18. REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and
the expiration of any applicable cure periods, the non-defaulting Party shall have all remedies provided by law or equity and as provided in this Agreement. Subsequent to the payment in full of all amounts owed to CIL&D (or its successor and
assigns) by KEM’s Affiliates under the $4.25 Million Note and $19 Million Note (as those terms are defined in the PA) (the “CIL&D Payment Date”) the Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that the
obligations under Sections 3, 4, 5, 11, 13, 19.4 and 20.12 of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, after the CIL&D Payment Date each of the Parties shall be entitled
to seek specific performance of the terms of this Agreement, including an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Subsequent to the CIL&D Payment Date, each of
the Parties hereby further waives (a) any defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate and (b) any requirement under any law to post security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief. 

19. TERMINATION. This Agreement shall terminate as expressly provided herein, unless earlier terminated
by mutual written consent. 
 19.1 TERMINATION BY KEM. Upon the occurrence of an uncured Event
of Default, KEM may terminate this Agreement, provided, that KEM or its Affiliates are not in default under the PA or the Transaction Agreements. On termination of this Agreement based upon an uncured Event of Default by EMMR, EMMR within thirty
(30) days after termination of this Agreement, shall execute and deliver to KEM a release and termination of this Agreement in a form acceptable for recording. 

19.2 TERMINATION BY EMMR. EMMR may at any time terminate this Agreement by giving sixty
(60) days advance written notice to KEM. If EMMR terminates this Agreement, EMMR shall perform all obligations and pay all payments which accrue or become due before the termination date. On EMMR’s termination of this Agreement, within
thirty (30) days following such termination, EMMR shall execute and deliver to KEM a release and termination of this Agreement in a form acceptable for recording. 

19.3 CONTINUING OBLIGATIONS AND ENVIRONMENTAL
LIABILITIES. During the Term of this Agreement and after termination or expiration under this Section 19.3, EMMR shall remain liable for obligations to KEM and/or third parties arising out of or related to
its use of the Utilities and Utility Systems, including liabilities arising out the violation of any Laws and Environmental Laws by EMMR. Similarly, KEM shall remain liable for liabilities to EMMR and/or third parties as provided in this Agreement
with respect to any obligations incurred prior to the termination of this Agreement. 
 19.4 SURRENDER
OF THE PROPERTY AND DISPOSITION OF ASSETS ON TERMINATION. On expiration or termination of
this Agreement, EMMR shall promptly cease use of the Utility Systems. This provision shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement.

its respective activities at the Eagle Mountain Property as permitted under this Agreement, including all consents that may be required or requested by governmental or quasi-governmental authorities in approving the Project or the use, maintenance,
repair, rehabilitation or modification of the Utility Systems. However, should EMMR or KEM be required by any governmental or quasi-governmental authorities to provide additional or further property owner consents, KEM shall promptly and freely
provide such consents as necessary with respect to any activities undertaken in compliance with this Agreement. KEM and EMMR shall not protest or negatively comment on any application by the other Party for any permit or approval necessary for that
Party to conduct its activities at the Eagle Mountain Property as contemplated by this Agreement, whether now pending or later filed, or revisions, amendments or additions thereto so long as such permit, revisions, amendments, or additions do not
have a material adverse effect on the rights of KEM or EMMR, as the case may be, under this Agreement or result in any Project Interference.

which consent shall not be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or withheld, and the rights and obligations shall extend to its successors and assigns; provided, however, any transfer under clause (i) above may be conditioned upon
such transferee delivering to KEM documentation reasonably satisfactory to KEM 

  
 18 








 
whereby such transferee expressly assumes the obligations of EMMR hereunder; provided, further, in connection with the transfer by KEM of its interest in the Eagle Mountain
Property, the rights of KEM under this Agreement shall automatically be transferred without the consent of EMMR to the transferee of KEM’s interest in the Eagle Mountain Property and, subject to Section 20.14 below, KEM may not transfer
its rights under this Agreement separate and apart from its interest in the Eagle Mountain Property. Any transfer made in violation of this Section 20.13 shall be null and void and of no force and effect.

PARTIES. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (including Section 20.13), EMMR agrees that KEM may at any time pledge, collaterally assign, encumber, or grant a security interest in its rights
under this Agreement to any of the Financing Parties without the need for any consent from EMMR. EMMR agrees that it shall, at any time and from time to time during the term of this Agreement, after receipt of a written request by KEM, execute and
deliver to KEM and KEM’s Financing Parties, as designated in such request, such commercially reasonable estoppel certificates and consent and collateral assignment agreements in connection with any such assignment, providing for terms and
conditions customary to similar project finance transactions in California and otherwise reasonably acceptable to EMMR and such Financing Parties. Upon the request of KEM, EMMR will reasonably cooperate at KEM’s expense in the financing or
refinancing of the Project, including in the making of any filings required by KEM for regulatory compliance or obtaining governmental approvals.
