    certain dates of the exploration earn-in agreement (the “Earn-In Agreement”) dated March 29, 2010 between
    AuEx, Inc., a predecessor in rights to Renaissance under the Earn-In Agreement, and Liberty Silver Corp. (“Liberty”);

The
parties acknowledge a mutual intent to extend by three calendar years the period for delivering by Liberty of a Bankable Feasibility
Study to Renaissance which immediately prior to the date hereof was to be delivered by March 29, 2017, and which delivery would
complete the entire earn-in obligations of Liberty under the Earn-In Agreement and entitle Liberty to become the owner of 70%
interest in the Trinity Silver Project located in Pershing County, Nevada, which is described in the Earn-In Agreement and which
is subject to the Lease and Sublease Agreement between AuEx and Newmont USA Limited dated July 29, 2005 as described in the Earn-In
Agreement.

both parties, the parties agree as follows:

    reference to “seventh anniversary of the Effective Date” “ in Section A1(b) of the Earn-In Agreement shall
    be extended to “March 29, 2020”; and 
	 	 	 
	 	b)	the
    reference to “seventh anniversary of the Effective Date” in Section A1(c) of the Earn-In Agreement shall be extended
    to “March 29, 2020”. 



 


No
other provision of the Earn-In Agreement shall be amended by this letter agreement, and the Earn-In Agreement remains in full
force and effect as amended hereby.


 


2.
Option To Acquire the Trinity Silver Project


 


The
parties also acknowledge a mutual intent to grant Liberty the exclusive right to acquire the Trinity Silver Project until September
30, 2017. To that end, and for good and valuable consideration described in section 3 hereof, sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged
by both parties, Renaissance hereby grants Liberty an exclusive option to acquire a 100% interest in the Trinity Silver Project
as outlined in the Letter of Intent expiring on the earlier of (i) closing of the transaction, and (ii) September 30, 2017.


 


3.

In
consideration of the parties agreeing to enter into this letter agreement, Liberty undertakes to remit to Renaissance upon the
earlier (i) completion of a financing of an aggregate of up to USD$1.0 million, and (ii) June 30, 2017, cash consideration of
US$20,000 plus US$76,366.24 representing property maintenance costs incurred by Renaissance (the “Transaction Consideration”).


 


4.
Effect of termination 


 


If
the Transaction Consideration is not completed in accordance with the terms hereof, this letter agreement shall terminate and
be of no effect, and the Earn-In Agreement shall be interpreted and have the effect as if the extensions described in section
2 hereof have not been made.


 


5.

	Objective:	Restructuring
    the ownership of the Trinity Silver Property (“Property”), as defined in the existing Earn-In Agreement
    between AuEx Inc. (“AuEx”) and Liberty, dated March 29, 2010 (the “AuEx Agreement”),

    pursuant to the Minerals Lease and Sublease Agreement between Newmont and AuEx, dated July 29, 2005 (the “Newmont
    Agreement”). The New Agreement will be completed as soon as practicable and will close within 30-days from concluding
    negotiations with Newmont.

	Election
        & 

        Non-Performance:
	For
    greater certainty, (i) Liberty has the right to complete the restructuring of the AuEx Agreement with Renaissance before it
    enters into the New Agreement with Newmont, and (ii) Liberty must complete the restructuring of the AuEx Agreement with Renaissance
    if Liberty is able to enter into the New Agreement. 
	 	 
	 	In

    to continue negotiations for a New Agreement with Newmont, (ii) Liberty may elect in its sole discretion to close the restructuring

    (iii) all Subsequent Purchase Payments, as described above, will be paid in equally spaced installments between the date that
    the restructuring of the AuEx Agreement with Renaissance is closed and September 30, 2017.
	 	 
	 	Where
    Liberty is unable to complete a New Agreement with Newmont by the Outside Date, and does not elect to close the restructuring
    transaction with Renaissance, then any monies received by Renaissance from Liberty during the interim, with the exception
    of the $15,000 work-fee, will be returned to Liberty and Renaissance and Liberty will revert back to the existing rights and
    obligations pursuant to the AuEx Agreement.
	 	 
	 	In
    the event that Liberty closes the transaction with Renaissance, however Liberty fails to satisfy the subsequent purchase payment
    obligations to Renaissance, as described above, then the interest of Liberty in the Property will revert back to Renaissance,
    and the royalty rights of Liberty in the Property as specified in the AuEx Agreement will remain in force.
	 	 
	Definitive
    Agreement:	All
    terms and conditions concerning the transactions herein will be set forth in a definitive agreement between the Parties hereto
    that will be subject to the approval of the Parties. Those terms and conditions will include representations, warranties,
    and covenants which are mutually acceptable to the Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties hereto acknowledge
    and agree that if, in connection with finalizing the definitive agreement, a particular legal structure is determined by one
    or both Parties hereto to be beneficial or advisable for the purpose of addressing any liability, corporate or tax concerns
    of the Parties, the Parties shall, at such time, consider available alternatives that would best address such issues.

	Closing
    Date:	The
    closing date (the “Closing Date”) will occur at such time and place as the Parties hereto may mutually

    or offer relating to the transactions provided for herein; nor will Renaissance participate in any negotiations or enter into
    any agreement regarding, or furnish to any person any information with respect to, or otherwise cooperate with, facilitate
    or encourage any effort or attempt by any person to do or seek any such transaction.
	 	 
	Confidentiality:	Except

	Transaction
    Costs:	Each
    of the Parties will be responsible for its own costs and expenses incurred in connection with entering into this Letter of
