4.4             
Area of Interest


		(a)	If, during the term of this Agreement, any party, directly or indirectly, has the opportunity to
stake or otherwise acquire any mineral interest or right of any nature whatsoever, located wholly or in part in the Area of Interest,
the party who has such opportunity (in this Section 4.4, the “Acquiring Party”) shall notify the other party
(the “Other Party”) in writing of that opportunity without undue delay, and, in any event, within 10 days of
the opportunity arising, including the terms on which the mineral interest or right of any nature whatsoever is able to be acquired
and an assessment of the likely benefits to the parties. An Acquiring Party may stake a mineral interest or right in its own name
if the Acquiring Party believes it is necessary to do so in order to preserve the opportunity to acquire such mineral interest
or right. In such event the Acquiring Party will be staking the mineral claim subject to the right of the party who is not the
Acquiring Party under this Section 4.4(a) and if a decision is made to stake or acquire the mineral interest or right pursuant
to Section 4.4(b), such mineral claim shall become subject to this Agreement and form part of the Property on the basis contemplated
by Section 4.4(b).



		(b)	The Other Party shall within 15 days from the date that the notice is given by the Acquiring Party
pursuant to Section 4.4(a) decide whether the mineral interest or right of any nature whatsoever should be staked or acquired on
behalf of the parties. If a decision is made to stake or acquire any mineral interest or right wholly or in part in the Area of
Interest, the parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to acquire or stake such mineral interest or right of any nature
whatsoever which shall become subject to this agreement and form part of the Property (the “Additional Property”).
The costs associated with staking or acquiring the Additional Property shall be included in the program and budget for work on
the Property approved by SVB.



(c)              
If the Other Party decides the mineral right or interest in the Area of Interest should not be acquired as stated pursuant
to Section 4.4(b), the Acquiring Party may itself acquire or stake such mineral claim on terms not more favourable to the Acquiring
Party than those specified in the notice referred to in Section 4.4(a) within three months of the giving of such notice.


4.5             
Right of First Refusal


If CB receives a bona fide offer
(the “Offer”) from an arms-length third party (the “Offeror”) to purchase either all of its
interest in the Beskauga Property or only the interest in the Beskauga Main Project or Beskauga South Project (the “ROFR
Interest”), which CB intends to accept, the following provisions shall apply:


		(a)	CB shall, by notice (the “ROFR Notice”), advise SVB of its intention to accept
such Offer, and include in such ROFR Notice the identity of the Offeror, the price or other consideration of the Offer, the proposed
effective date and closing date of the transaction, a copy of the Offer, evidence that the board of directors of CB has approved
the acceptance of such Offer, and any other information respecting the transaction which it reasonably believes would be material
to the exercise of the other party’s rights hereunder.



 






    	17  





    	 



    

 


		(b)	If the consideration described in the ROFR Notice cannot be matched in kind, the ROFR Notice shall
include CB’s bona fide estimate of the value, in cash, of such consideration. If SVB objects as to the reasonableness of
such estimate of the cash value of the consideration described in the ROFR Notice, it will so advise CB and the dispute will be
submitted for determination to an independent Canadian national firm of chartered accountants mutually agreed to by CB and SVB
(and, failing such agreement between CB and SVB within a further period of five Business Days, such independent national firm of
chartered accountants will be designated by SVB, and the election period provided herein to the other party shall be suspended
until such matter is resolved by settlement or determination).



		(c)	Within the later of: (i) 90 days from the receipt of the ROFR Notice, as modified by any suspension
described above; or (ii) if applicable, 15 days from any determination or settlement reached as described above, SVB may give notice
to CB that it elects to purchase the ROFR Interest described in the ROFR Notice for the applicable price (a “Notice of
Acceptance”). A Notice of Acceptance shall create a binding contractual obligation upon CB to sell, and upon SVB to purchase,
for the applicable price, all of the ROFR Interest included in such ROFR Notice on the terms and conditions set forth in the ROFR
Notice.



		(d)	If the ROFR Interest described in the ROFR Notice is not disposed of to SVB as described above,
CB may transfer such ROFR Interest to the Offeror identified in such ROFR Notice at any time within 180 days from the issuance
of such ROFR Notice, provided that (i) such transfer is not on terms that are more favourable to such purchaser than those offered
in the ROFR Notice; (ii) and the transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions applicable to CB pursuant
to this Agreement.



		(e)	Following a transfer or 180 days from the issuance of a ROFR Notice from which a transfer did not
result, as the case may be, the provisions of this clause shall once again apply to the ROFR Interest described in the ROFR Notice.

the Breach Notice or at any time thereafter; or

Indemnity and Survival of Representations


		(a)	The representations and warranties set out herein are conditions on which the parties have relied
in entering into this Agreement and shall survive for a period of three years after the date of this Agreement. Each of CB and
SVB will indemnify and save the other harmless from and against any and all claims, judgments, liabilities, loss, cost, expense
or damage, of any kind or nature whatsoever (including legal costs on a solicitor and his own client basis), arising out of or
in connection with any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or condition made by it and contained in this
Agreement.



		(b)	The provisions of Section 5.2 of this Agreement shall survive termination of this Agreement.



5.3

the party affected by such default shall give written notice to the Defaulting Party specifying the default. The Defaulting Party
shall have 30 days after the receipt of such notice of default to cure the default specified in such notice. If the Defaulting
Party fails within such period to cure any such default, the affected party will be entitled to seek any remedy it may have on
account of such default including terminating this agreement and/or seeking the remedies of specific performance, injunction or
damages.

MISCELLANEOUS


6.1             
Confidentiality


The parties agree to hold in confidence
all data and information obtained in respect of the Beskauga Property or otherwise in connection with this Agreement except to
the extent: (i) such data and information is or becomes generally available to the public (other than as a result of a disclosure
by a party or its representatives in breach of this Agreement); (ii) such data and information is derived solely from SVB’s
activities in respect of the Beskauga Property in which case it may be disclosed by SVB; or (iii) such data or information is required
to be disclosed by law or by the rules and regulations of any regulatory authority or stock exchange having jurisdiction, in which
case the party making such disclosure will consult with the other party prior to making any statement or news release and the parties
will use all reasonable efforts, acting expeditiously and in good faith, to provide the other party with a copy of any proposed
disclosure at least 72 hours, or if such period is not reasonably practicable, as soon as possible, prior to public release in
order to agree upon a text for such statement or release which is satisfactory to each party. Failure by a non-disclosing party
to provide comment on any proposed disclosure within 72 hours of receipt from the disclosing party shall be deemed a waiver of
such receiving party’s rights pursuant to this section. If the parties fail to agree upon such text, the party making the
disclosure will make only such public statement or release as its counsel advises is legally required to be made or is otherwise
reasonable in the circumstances.

of any assignment under this Agreement that such assignee shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement applicable

6.3             
Force Majeure


		(a)	The obligations of a party hereunder shall be suspended to the extent and for the period that performance,
exploration, development or operations, as applicable, is prevented by any cause, whether foreseeable or unforeseeable, beyond
its reasonable control, including labour disputes (however arising and whether or not employee demands are reasonable or within
the power of the party to grant); acts of God; laws, instructions or requests of any government or governmental entity; judgments

any Intervening Event and, if possible, shall perform its obligations under this Agreement as far as commercially practical, but
nothing herein shall require such party to settle or adjust any labour dispute or to question or to test the validity of any law,
rule, regulation or order of any duly constituted governmental authority or to complete its obligations under this Agreement if
an Intervening Event renders completion commercially impracticable. A party relying on the provisions of Subsection 6.3(a) shall
give written notice to the other party as soon as such Intervening Event ceases to exist.
