thousand and five hundred dollars and/or ten thousand dollars of the United
States of America shall cease immediately. These are the payments listed in
letters /b/ to /rr/ above, both included, of which the due date may be after the
withdrawal date. FIFTH
ARTICLE. Acceptance of the Offer: If Minera Farellon decides to accept
the offer within the term agreed on to do so, the company shall state the desire
to do so through a public document declaring that it wishes to accept the offer.
In the event that Minera Farellon accepts the offer to sell and exercise the
option to purchase prior to the date indicated in letter /rr/ of the Fourth
Article, it shall be necessary to pay, as an increase in the purchase/sale price
and in agreement with what is indicated in the Second Article Number Two, all of
the sums indicated in letters /b/ to /rr/ of the Fourth Article above that may
not have been paid prior to the date of
  8
 the
acceptance of the offer, under the same terms indicated in the above-mentioned
letters. The corresponding Conservator of Mines, after seeing a copy of this
document and a copy of this document and a copy of the document showing the
acceptance by Minera Farellon, shall register the Mining Holdings indicated in
the acceptance document in the name Minera Farellon Limitada. All of this is in
virtue of what is stipulated in the final section of Article one hundred and
sixty-nine of the Mining Code according to which, when it has to do with an
option contract for the purchase of rights specifically regulated by said Code,
it shall be sufficient to have the sole acceptance of the irrevocable offer for
the purchase/sale offered to be perfected. The sole requirement is that the
offer as well as the acceptance must be verified in a public document. SIXTH ARTICLE. Payment of
Purchase/Sale Price: Sixth One) The price of the purchase/sale indicated
in this document shall be paid, if the purchase offer mentioned in this document
is exercised, through monthly payments until the amount of the six hundred
thousand dollars mentioned above is paid, from the royalties – hereafter the
“Royalties” – of one point five percent of the value corresponding to the net
sale of minerals that are extracted from the holdings and are paid by the
National Mining Company, hereafter and indistinctly called “Enami” or by any
other purchaser whatsoever. The payment and liquidation of the Royalties shall
be effected monthly within the ten days following the date on which Enami or
another purchaser has made the respective payment. Through this document, the
parties agree on a minimum guaranteed monthly payment equivalent to one thousand
dollars of the United States of America, from the date on which Minera Farellon
begins the exploitation of the holdings after the option is exercised. For this
purpose, Minera Farellon shall prepare the report regarding the monthly payment
of the Royalties including sufficient information to determine the amount, which
shall be delivered to Mr. Antolin Amadeo Crespo Garcia, together with the amount
corresponding to the Royalties. If Mr. Antolin Amadeo Crespo Garcia does not
make any observations regarding the payment within the seven days following this
delivery by Minera Farellon, it shall be understood that final and total
approval has been given to said liquidation and the corresponding payment.
Included in the sufficient information that shall have to be provided by Minera
Farellon, shall be the invoices for the sale to Enami or another purchaser,
together with the respective
  9
  shipping
logs. In the case where Mr. Antolin Amadeo Crespo Garcia has observations to
make regarding said documents, he shall be able to apply to Minera Farellon for
authorization to have access to the information related to the Royalties and
shall have to send the request the required amount of time in advance. At any
time whatsoever, until the amount indicated in this article is totally paid,
Minera Farellon shall be able to terminate the payment of the Royalties
mentioned above, for which the company shall have to pay Mr. Antolin Amadeo
Crespo Garcia the difference that exists between what was effectively paid to
said date on account for the Royalties and what remains to be paid to complete
the six hundred thousand dollars indicated above. Sixth. Two) In the event that
Minera Farellon begins the exploitation of the Mining Holdings prior to the date
of the exercising of the purchase option, it shall have to pay the Offering
Party the Royalties indicated above. If after having initiated the exploitation
of the Mining Holdings, Minera Farellon decides to accept the offer for the sale
and exercise the option to purchase the Mining Holdings, the amounts paid for
the concept of the Royalties in the case described in this number, shall be
considered as an advance payment towards the price of the purchase/sale. In
addition, in the event where Minera Farellon decides not to accept the offer of
the sale and not to exercise the option to purchase the Mining Holdings,
the sums paid for the concept of Royalties in the case described in this number
shall be kept by the Offering Party as an indemnity paid for damages. SEVENTH ARTICLE.
Irrevocability: This contract shall have the nature of a contract for the
option to purchase Mining Holdings indicated in Article one hundred and
seventy-nine of the Mining Code and it is agreed on with the nature of being
irrevocable. Therefore, it shall be sufficient to have the sole acceptance of
MINERA FARELLON LIMITADA, at any time whatsoever, of the irrevocable offer that
is presented in this legal action, for the purchase/sale to be perfected.
Nevertheless, if the term of effectiveness of the option has expired, and Minera
Farellon has not accepted the offer of the sale of the holdings that are
referred to in this document, it shall be understood that Minera Farellon has
decided not to exercise the option that is granted in this document. If any of
the quotas of the price of the option is not paid within the terms indicated in
the Fourth Article of this document, it shall be understood that Minera Farellon
has withdrawn from the option, without the above-mentioned unpaid amounts of the
quota being payable. In this event, the Offering Party shall be able to require
the cancellation of the registrations that may have been
  10
  made in
virtue of this contract in relation to the Mining Holdings indicated. EIGHTH ARTICLE.
Authorizations: Antolin Amadeo Crespo Garcia irrevocably authorizes
Minera Farellon, while the term for exercising the option that is granted herein
is pending, to be able to carry out on the Mining Holdings detailed in this
document the explorations, examinations, prospecting and exploitations, being
able to carry out all of the works and projects with the express declaration
that Minera Farellon shall be able to exercise all of the active easements that
benefit said holdings and that, in addition, they shall also be able to make use
of the minerals that are extracted because of their works. Minera Farellon shall
be exclusively responsible for the mining works of exploration and exploitation
that it carries out on the holdings, as well as the effects that are forthcoming
from said works, duly fulfilling all of the legal dispositions that are
applicable in this regard. NINTH ARTICLE. No
Restitution: If Minera Farellon decides not to accept the offer that is
being made regarding the Mining Holdings referred to in this document, the
obligation regarding the payments of any type whatsoever according to what is
indicated in the Fourth Article shall cease immediately, but the Offering Party
shall not have the obligation of returning the payments corresponding to the
price of the option that may have already been received. These shall be retained
as the sole and exclusive indemnity for damages of any type whatsoever, in kind
or in amount, that could have been caused by the fact of having been impeded
from exploring and exploiting, as well as from negotiating these holdings with
third parties during the life of the option, or caused by the decision of Minera
Farellon not to accept the offer or derived from any other causes or reasons
related to the contract contained in this document. TENTH ARTICLE. Withdrawal: At any
time whatsoever, Minera Farellon shall be able to make a declaration through a
public document, which shall be noted in the margin of the original version of
this document, expressing the decision not to accept the offer that is being
made in this document and, from the date of this marginal notation, all of the
obligations contracted in virtue of this document shall cease for Minera
Farellon, of any type whatsoever, particularly the obligations regarding making
the payments that are referred to in the Fourth Article of this document. In the
case of withdrawal, Minera Farellon shall provide for the Offering Party,
without any cost whatsoever, all of the information that may have been obtained
from the exploration that may have been
  11
  made on
the holdings. This information shall include the reports that contain the
complete or partial results from the studies – if any were done – geological,
geochemical, metallurgical, and hydrological, exploration reports, geophysical
plans and reports and all of the interpretive information obtained from the
works of exploration and exploitation carried out. None of what is indicated in
this article may be interpreted as Minera Farellon having the obligations to
carry out studies or write reports, whatever the nature of these may be. ELEVENTH ARTICLE.
Maintenance of Holdings: The Offering Party shall have to adopt, at its
own exclusive cost, all of the judicial and extra-judicial measures that may be
necessary to duly keep constituted and in effect the rights emanating from the
Mining Holdings detailed in this document and to defend these rights and
minerals that the holdings contain from any pretensions of third parties.
Without prejudice to what is stipulated above, Minera Farellon Limitada shall
reimburse the Offering Party for all of the amounts paid for the concept of the
payment of mining patents that support the holdings object of this option, which
were duly incurred during the life of the option. TWELFTH ARTICLE.
Prohibitions and Restrictions: One: The Offering
Party promises not to sell, encumber, transfer, promise to sell, mortgage, grant
an option or execute documents or contracts of any type whatsoever regarding the
Mining Holdings that are referred to in this document, with reference to the
mining rights that originate from them or regarding the minerals that they
contain, while the term for Minera Farellon to exercise the respective option is
in effect. If in spite of the above prohibitions, any other document is executed
or any contract whatsoever is executed that limits or affects, or could limit or
affect the holding, possession or ownership of the holdings, or the minerals
that they contain, the document or contract is resolved ipso facto once Minera
Farellon accepts the irrevocable offer that is being made in this document. All
of this is in agreement with Article one hundred and sixty-nine of the Mining
Code, without prejudice to the other rights that emanate from this contract and
the law for Minera Farellon. Two: Antolin Amadeo
Crespo Garcia promises to maintain strict confidentiality regarding all of the
information and technical data that could be used in the exploration,
exploitation and know-how, as well as all of the
other information related to the works that Minera Farellon or its contractors
develop on the Mining Holdings. Three: Without
prejudice to what is stipulated in No. One
  12
  of this
Article, Antolin Amadeo Crespo Garcia promises, during the life of the option
that is indicated in this document, not to present new petitions or
manifestation, or constitute new concessions for exploration and/or exploitation
in the area made up of the Mining Holdings detailed in the First Clause of this
document, without prior written consent from Minera Farellon. Four: Antolin Amadeo
Crespo Garcia shall not be able to totally or partially cede or transfer the
rights and authorizations that are indicated in this contract, without prior
written consent from Minera Farellon. Five: Minera Farellon shall, at any time
whatsoever with a written consent from the Offering Party, be able to sell,
cede, transfer or in any other way whatsoever exercise of all or part of the
rights in this contract, if and when the purchaser or the transferee declares in
the contract that serves as the title for the acquisition that it will fulfill
each and every one of the obligations that Minera Farellon has contracted in
this document, under the same terms, as if this contract had been executed by
said transferee, promising to impose equal obligations on any later transferee
whatsoever. THIRTEENTH
ARTICLE. Rate of Exchange: The amounts of money in this document that are
expressed in dollars of the United States of America shall be paid in pesos,
national currency, at the rate of exchange called the “observed dollar”

Power of Attorney: The vendor and the purchaser grant a Special Power of
Attorney to the attorneys Enrique Benitez Urrutia and Gonzalo Nieto Valdes, both
with the address Avenida Isidora Goyenechea three thousand two hundred and
fifty, ninth floor, Las Condes, Santiago, so that either one of them may grant
all of the complementary documents that may be necessary in order to rectify any
error or omission whatsoever existing in the clauses related
  13
  to the
correct individualization of the Mining Holdings object of this contract,
registration of control, method for acquisition, etc., with the sole purpose
that the Conservator of Real Estate may make the registrations and annotations
that may be forthcoming. The holder of the Power of Attorney is especially
empowered to sign all types of applications, declarations, rough drafts, public
and private
documents that are necessary for the fulfillment of the commitment. The
authorization for Mr. Kevin Robert Mitchell to represent Minera Farellon
Limitada is verified in the public document for the constitution of said
company, dated the twenty-second of February of two thousand and seven, granted
before the same Notary. The authorization document mentioned above is not
inserted because the parties and the Notary that is authorizing know the
document. As verification, after being read, the persons appearing signed. A
copy is given. Noted in the Digest under No. 943. I Swear.
