*Royalty Purchase Agreement*

On May 6, 2026, the Company and its indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, TMCR USA Operations Inc., entered into a royalty purchase agreement (the "Royalty Purchase Agreement") with Ironclad Royalties, LLC ("Ironclad") and Mesabi Investments (USA) LLC pursuant to which the Company and TMCR USA Operations Inc. agreed that TMCR USA Operations Inc. will purchase (the "Transaction") a portion of Ironclad's interest in an index-priced gross production revenue royalty with a revenue floor (the "Purchased Royalty"), with an option to purchase an additional royalty interest (the "Additional Purchased Royalty") on Mesabi Metallics Company LLC's iron ore project in Nashwauk, Minnesota (the "Property").

The Purchased Royalty is payable on a quarterly basis in an amount equal to one percent (1.00% of 8/8ths) (in an amount not lower than at least $1.50 per metric ton ("MT")) (the "Base Royalty Rate") of the gross revenue from the annual produced amount of DR Grade Iron Ore Pellets from the Property, in a volume amount of up to but not exceeding 8.5 metric tons per annum ("MTPA"), for any calendar year (for each such year, the "Base Royalty Annual Volume" and the total volumes cumulatively for all Base Royalties, the "Total Base Royalty Volumes"), until the occurrence of the Step Down Date (as defined below).

Upon the date in which the annual production of DR Grade Iron Ore Pellets from the Property is greater than a volume amount of 8.5 MTPA in any such calendar year (the "Overage Amount", and such greater amount in that calendar year, the "Overage Amount Produced"), the gross revenue royalty payable on a quarterly basis, on only the gross revenue from the Overage Amount Produced for such calendar year, shall be in the amount of one quarter of one-percent (0.25% of 8/8ths) (or not less than $0.375 per MT of such Overage Amount Produced), until the occurrence of the Step Down Date.

On the date that the Total Base Royalty Volumes equal 170 million MT (the "Step Down Date"), and for all production thereafter, the Base Royalty Rate shall be reduced to an amount equal to one quarter of one percent (0.25% of 8/8ths) (or at least $0.375 per MT) of gross revenue and once the 8.5 MPTA is produced for that Calendar Year, the Overage Royalty Rate shall be reduced in an amount equal to one sixteenth of one-percent (0.0625%) (or not less than $<u>0.09375</u> per MT of such Overage Amount Produced) of gross revenue.

The aggregate purchase price for the Purchased Royalty is $132,500,000, consisting of (i) a cash payment of $125,000,000 (the "Cash Consideration") and (ii) the issuance of common shares of the Company with an aggregate value of $7,500,000, to be issued in a private placement pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act (as defined below). At the signing of the Royalty Purchase Agreement, the Company paid a $15,000,000 deposit (the "Deposit") as advance payment against the Cash Consideration , which is not refundable upon the termination of the Royalty Purchase Agreement unless certain deposit refund conditions relating to exclusivity and title are met.

The Company was also granted an option to purchase the Additional Purchased Royalty, which is an additional one percent (1.00% of 8/8ths) gross revenue royalty from the annual produced amount of DR Grade Iron Ore Pellets in a volume of up to but not to exceed 8.5 MTPA in any calendar year (in an amount not lower than at least $1.50 per MT) (the "Option Base Rate") from the Property from the retained royalty on the Property that is not the Purchased Royalty after the closing date of the Agreement.

Upon the date on which the Overage Amount has been produced, then the gross revenue royalty payable on a quarter basis shall be in a royalty amount of 0.25% (of 8/8ths) on the gross revenue on production exceeding 8.5 MTPA in any calendar year (or not less than $0.375 per MT of such Over Amount Produced) (the "Option Overage Rate"), until the occurrence of the Step Down Date.

On the Step Down Date, and for all production thereafter: (A) then the Option Base Rate shall be reduced to 0.25% (of 8/8ths) (or at least $0.375 per MT); and (B) the Option Overage Rate shall be reduced to 0.0625% (of 8/8ths) (or not less than $0.09375 per MT of such Overage Amount Produced).

The option to purchase the Additional Purchased Royalty terminates on the closing date of the Agreement. Following closing of the Purchased Royalty portion of the Transaction, the option if exercised if have an obligation on the Company to close the Additional Purchased Royalty portion of the Transaction within 45 days. On exercise of the option and post - closing of the Purchased Royalty portion of the Transaction , the Company will be deemed to have paid the Deposit as advance payment against the Option Cash Consideration (as defined below).The aggregate purchase price for the Additional Purchased Royalty is $132,500,000, consisting of (i) a cash payment of $125,000,000 (the "Option Cash Consideration"), less the Deposit, resulting in a net cash payment of $110,000,000 and (ii) the issuance of common shares of the Company with an aggregate value of $7,500,000, pursuant to a supplemental subscription agreement on terms substantially similar to the Subscription Agreement (as defined below).

The closing of the Purchased Royalty portion of the Transaction is conditional on certain conditions precedent occurring prior to May 31, 2026 (subject to extension if regulatory approvals and third party consents are not obtained), including, among others (i) completion of an equity financing by the Company to fund the Cash Consideration, (ii) completion of technical reports prepared in accordance with Regulation SK-1300, (iii) delivery of customary title opinions, (iv) receipt of applicable third party consents and (v) other customary closing conditions.

The Royalty Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties from the Company and Ironclad and also contains customary covenants, including, among others, to perform each party's obligations under the agreement, to seek all necessary consents and regulatory approvals and to not engage in certain kinds of transactions or take certain actions unless consented to in writing by the other party, in each case subject to customary exceptions as applicable.

Pursuant to the Royalty Purchase Agreement, the Company was also granted certain rights of first offer in respect of the portion of the existing royalty not purchased by the Company and retained by Ironclad.

On closing of the Purchased Royalty portion of the Transaction, Ironclad will enter into a conveyance of royalty interests (the "Conveyance") with TMCR USA Operations Inc. in respect of the Purchased Royalty. The Conveyance provides that the Purchased Royalty is an interest in real property and that the covenants and obligations under the Conveyance are covenants that run with the land as to the Purchased Royalty. Subject to certain terms and conditions, the Conveyance provides that the Purchased Royalty is transferable by TMCR USA Operations Inc. except to certain categories of ineligible transferees.

*Private Placement*

On May 6, 2026, the Company entered into subscription agreements (the "Subscription Agreements") with certain institutional and accredited investors (the "Investors") in connection with a private placement of its common shares (the "Private Placement"). Pursuant to the Subscription Agreements, the Company agreed to offer and sell in the Private Placement to the Purchasers 6,004,330 common shares, without par value (the "Common Shares"), at a purchase price of $13.00 per Common Share.

The Subscription Agreements contain customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company and the Purchasers. Closing of the Private Placement is conditional upon satisfaction of the closing conditions of the Purchased Royalty portion of the Transaction, which is expected to close on or before May 31, 2026. The gross proceeds to the Company from the Private Placement will be approximately $78 million, before deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Private Placement to fund the Cash Consideration and for general corporate purposes.

The Common Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The Common Shares were offered and sold without registration under the Securities Act in reliance on the exemptions provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder for U.S. persons that purchased Common Shares in the Private Placement, and in reliance on Regulation S of the Securities Act for non-U.S. persons that purchased Common Shares in the Private Placement.

Pursuant to the Subscription Agreements, the Company has agreed to file a registration statement on Form F-1 (or other appropriate form) to register for resale of the Common Shares as soon as practicable (and in any event with 5 business days of the closing of the Private Placement) (the "Resale Registration Statement"). Pursuant to the subscription agreement entered into with Ironclad in connection with the Royalty Purchase Agreement, the common shares issued as Royalty Share Consideration are entitled to piggyback registration rights and may be included in the Resale Registration Statement. The Company agreed to use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Resale Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable after filing, but no later than the earlier of (i) the 40th calendar day (or 70<sup>th</sup> calendar day if the SEC notifies the Company that it will "review" the Resale Registration Statement) following closing of the Private Placement and (ii) the 5<sup>th</sup> business day after the Company is notified by the SEC that the Resale Registration Statement will not be "reviewed" or subject to further review.

Copies of the Royalty Purchase Agreement (including the form of Conveyance) and the form of Subscription Agreement are attached hereto as Exhibits 99.1 and, 99.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference. The forgoing summaries of the terms of the Royalty Purchase Agreement and the form of Subscription Agreement are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by, such documents.

*Credit Facility Term Sheet*

On May 5, 2026, the Company entered into a term sheet (the "Credit Facility Term Sheet") with a direct lender (the "Lender" pursuant to which the Lender proposes to provide to the Company and its existing and future subsidiaries (collectively, the "Borrower") a senior secured term loan in an aggregate principal amount of up to $51,813,472 (the "Term Loan"), reflecting an original issue discount of 3.50% and resulting in net cash proceeds of up to $50,000,000 (the "Credit Facility"). The Lender retains the right to proportionally scale the principal amount of the Term Loan, and the corresponding net cash proceeds, in connection with any adjustment to the total consideration payable by the Company for the Transaction, such that the final size of the Term Loan would reflect the actual size of the completed Transaction. The proceeds of the Term Loan are intended to be applied to fund a portion of the Cash Consideration for the Transaction and for general working capital purposes.

The Credit Facility Term Sheet contemplates that the Term Loan will be advanced pursuant to a single drawdown on the funding date (the "Funding Date") on a non-revolving basis, and will mature 36 months following the Funding Date. The Term Loan will bear interest at a rate of 9.00% per annum, calculated on the outstanding principal amount and payable monthly in cash, and will be secured by a first-priority security interest over substantially all assets of the Borrower and a first-priority pledge of the equity interests of the Company's direct and indirect subsidiaries, in each case subject to customary exceptions and exclusions to be agreed.

Commencing on the date that is twelve months following the Funding Date, and on each six-month anniversary thereafter for so long as any portion of the Term Loan remains outstanding, the interest rate applicable to the Term Loan will automatically increase by 2.00% per annum on a cumulative basis.

Commencing in the thirteenth month following the Funding Date, the Borrower will be required to make scheduled monthly principal payments in an amount equal to one-twelfth of fifteen percent (15.00%) of the original principal amount of the Term Loan, payable in cash together with the corresponding monthly interest payment. In addition, the Borrower will be required to apply, towards mandatory prepayment of the Term Loan, (i) seventy-five percent (75%) of the net cash proceeds received by the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries from any issuance of equity securities or incurrence of indebtedness for borrowed money not otherwise permitted under the definitive documentation, where such net cash proceeds are equal to or less than $25,000,000, or (ii) fifty percent (50%) of such net cash proceeds, where such net cash proceeds exceed $25,000,000, subject to customary exceptions for, among other things, equity issuances in connection with the Transaction and ordinary course employee equity compensation issuances.

Any voluntary or mandatory prepayment of the Term Loan (other than scheduled amortization payments), as well as any repayment following acceleration upon an event of default, will be subject to (a) a make-whole premium designed to ensure that the Lender receives a minimum multiple on invested capital of 1.15x if such repayment occurs on or prior to the twelve-month anniversary of the Funding Date, or 1.30x if such repayment occurs after such date but on or prior to the twentieth-month anniversary of the Funding Date, and (b) thereafter, a call premium initially equal to 105% of the principal amount being repaid, increasing by 1.00% on each three-month anniversary commencing on the twenty-third-month anniversary of the Funding Date.

The Credit Facility Term Sheet contemplates customary affirmative and negative covenants for a financing of this type, including, among other things, restrictions on asset dispositions, distributions, the incurrence of indebtedness and capital expenditures, in each case subject to customary baskets, qualifications and exceptions to be agreed. The Borrower will be required to maintain a minimum balance of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $5,000,000 at all times, increasing to $15,000,000 from and after the twenty-four-month anniversary of the Funding Date until the Term Loan has been repaid in full. The Lender has also been granted a right of first offer to provide any additional indebtedness incurred by the Borrower prior to the maturity of the Term Loan, on terms to be mutually agreed.

In connection with the execution of the Credit Facility Term Sheet, the Borrower has agreed to a 45-day exclusivity period (subject to a single 15-day extension at the Lender's reasonable election) during which the Borrower may not solicit, initiate, encourage, or participate in discussions regarding any competing senior debt financing proposal in respect of the Transaction, and has agreed to provide a $250,000 due diligence deposit, refundable net of the Lender's reasonable and documented out-of-pocket due diligence expenses. Other than the exclusivity, expense reimbursement, deposit and confidentiality provisions described therein, the Credit Facility Term Sheet is non-binding and does not constitute a contractual commitment of either party to consummate the Credit Facility. The funding of the Term Loan remains subject to a number of conditions, including the satisfactory completion of the Lender's legal, financial, tax and technical due diligence, the negotiation and execution of definitive loan documentation, the receipt of all necessary corporate and regulatory approvals, and other customary conditions precedent. There can be no assurance that the Credit Facility will be entered into on the terms set forth in the Credit Facility Term Sheet, or at all.

that royalty interest at the rate computed and on the terms as set forth in Section 2.5 (the "**Original Purchased Royalty** "),
and the Option (as defined below) to purchase an additional royalty interest at the rate computed on the terms as set forth in Section 2.6
(upon consummation of the sale of the Option, the "**Additional Purchased Royalty**" and together, the "**Purchased Royalty**") to the Purchaser, free and clear of any Encumbrances, and the Purchaser hereby agrees to purchase and accept such

obligations and liabilities of the Vendor under the Existing Royalty Agreement in respect of the Purchased Royalty, as set out in the
Purchased Royalty Agreement and any supplemental royalty agreement in connection with the Additional Purchased Royalty, substantially
in the form of the Purchased Royalty Agreement (the "**Additional Purchased Royalty Agreement** "), on and after the Closing
Date, in consideration for the Purchase Price, which shall be satisfied by (i) the Purchaser on the Closing Date in accordance with
Section 5.1 of this Agreement and (ii) the Purchaser Parent in accordance with Section 5.3 of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Parties covenant and agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain as promptly as possible
any and all Regulatory Approvals and Consents required for the completion of the Transaction, including to permit the assignment of the
Original Purchased Royalty and the execution of the Purchased Royalty Agreement and, if applicable, the Additional Purchased Royalty and
the Additional Purchased Royalty Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Parties covenant and agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide any necessary powers
of attorney and to negotiate any ancillary documentation related thereto (including without limitation, the assignment or conveyance agreements
necessary to sell and assign legal and beneficial title to the Original Purchased Royalty and, if applicable, the Additional Purchased
Royalty) as promptly as possible, and in any event, prior to the Outside Date with respect to the Original Purchased Royalty, and, upon
the exercise of the Option, prior to the Option Outside Date with respect to the Additional Purchased Royalty.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The "**Purchase Price**" for the Original Purchased Royalty shall be $132,500,000, comprised
of a $125,000,000 cash payment (the "**Cash Consideration**") and the issuance of common shares in the capital of the Purchaser
Parent, as directed by the Purchaser, pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, having an aggregate value of $7,500,000, provided that such
shares shall be valued at a per-share valuation equivalent to the price of the Equity and Debt Financing (the "**Share Consideration** ").

**2.2**  **<u>Transaction Deposit</u>** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Parties acknowledge that concurrent with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Purchaser
has made the Transaction Deposit as an advance against the payment of the Cash Consideration, and such Transaction Deposit shall constitute
a credit against the Purchase Price payable in accordance with Section 5.1 of this Agreement at Closing, and if the Option is duly
exercised pursuant to Section 2.6 of this Agreement, such Transaction Deposit shall be deemed a credit against the Option Cash Consideration.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Unless the Deposit Refund Condition is met prior to either (i) the termination of this Agreement
or (ii) the Closing Date if the Option has not been exercised, or if the Option has been exercised, then the Option Closing Date,
whichever date occurs earlier, the Transaction Deposit is not refundable to the Purchaser upon the termination of this Agreement and shall
be retained by the Vendor as liquidated damages and not a penalty to the extent permitted by Applicable Law. For the avoidance of doubt,
unless the Deposit Refund Condition is met (i) prior to the Closing Date if the Option has not been exercised and if the Closing
does not occur on or before the Outside Date, or (ii) if the Option has been exercised prior to the Option Closing Date and Closing
has occurred and the Option Closing does not occur on or before the Option Outside Date, the Transaction Deposit shall be forfeited and
retained by the Vendor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If the Deposit Refund Condition is met prior to either the termination of this Agreement or the Closing
Date, and unless otherwise agreed by the Purchaser, the Vendor shall, and MIUSA shall cause the Vendor to, repay the Transaction Deposit
to the Purchaser by wire transfer, in accordance with the instructions provided to the Vendor by the Purchaser.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Notwithstanding subsections (a) through (c) above, if the Purchaser delivers a valid Option
Exercise Notice, along with confirmation that the Option Cash Consideration is held in escrow, prior to the expiry of the Option Exercise
Period, the Transaction Deposit shall not be adjusted against the Cash Consideration by the Vendor in connection with the Closing but
shall instead be credited against the Option Cash Consideration due and owing by the Purchaser on the Option Closing Date. If the Option
lapses without valid exercise, the Transaction Deposit would be fully applied against the Closing.

**2.3**  **<u>Closing</u>** 

The Closing shall occur pursuant to Section 2.1 on the Closing Date. The Closing shall take place remotely, with documents exchanged via e-mail or otherwise decided by legal counsel for each Party at such time as shall be agreed to by the Parties on the Closing Date.

**2.4**  **<u>Allocations and Adjustments.</u>** 

The Purchaser shall be entitled to all rights of ownership, including revenues, production, proceeds, income, accounts receivable, and products from or attributable to the Original Purchased Royalty from and after the Closing Date or, upon the consummation of the sale of the Additional Purchased Royalty, the Option Closing Date, and to all other income, proceeds, receipts, and credits Earned with respect to the Purchased Royalty on or after the Closing Date or, upon the consummation of the sale of the Additional Purchased Royalty, the Option Closing Date. The Vendor shall be entitled to all rights of ownership, including revenues, production, proceeds, income, accounts receivable, and products from or attributable to the Existing Royalty prior to the Closing Date, and to all other income, proceeds, receipts, and credits Earned with respect to the Existing Royalty prior to the Closing Date. "**Earned**" as used in this Agreement, shall be interpreted in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) standards.

**2.5**  **<u>Specified Royalty Measurement</u>** 

The Purchaser and the Vendor hereby acknowledge and agree that the royalty interest purchased under this Agreement, shall be computed and on the terms as set forth in this Section 2.5 which are to be interpreted in a manner consistent with the Purchased Royalty Agreement and with the quarterly payment schedule set forth in both Section 2 and Schedule 2 of the Tripartite Agreement, and shall constitute and be no more than:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Base Royalty</u>: A gross revenue royalty, payable on a quarterly basis in an amount equal to one percent
(1.00% of 8/8ths) (in an amount not lower than at least $1.50 per MT) (the "**Base Royalty Rate**") of the gross revenue
from the annual produced amount of DR Grade Iron Ore Pellets from the Property, in a volume amount of up to but not to exceed 8.5 MTPA,
for any Calendar Year (for each such year, the "**Base Royalty Annual Volume**" and the total volumes cumulatively for
all Base Royalties, the "**Total Base Royalty Volumes** "), until the occurrence of the Step Down Date (as defined below).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Overage Royalty Amount</u>: Upon the date in which the annual production of DR Grade Iron Ore Pellets
from the Property is greater than a volume amount 8.5 MTPA in any such Calendar Year (such greater amount in that Calendar Year, the "**Overage Amount Produced** "), then the gross revenue royalty payable on a quarterly basis, on only the gross revenue from the Overage Amount
Produced for such Calendar Year shall be in the amount of one quarter of one-percent (0.25% of 8/8ths) (or not less than $0.375 per MT
of such Overage Amount Produced) (the "**Overage Royalty Rate**") until the occurrence of the Step Down Date (as defined
below).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Step Down Date</u>: On the date that the Total Base Royalty Volumes equals 170 million MT (the "**Step Down Date** "), and for all production thereafter, the Base Royalty Rate shall be reduced to an amount equal to one quarter of
one-percent (0.25% of 8/8ths) (or at least $0.375 per MT) of gross revenue and once the 8.5 MPTA is produced for that Calendar Year, the
Overage Royalty Rate, shall be reduced in an amount equal to one sixteenth of one-percent (0.0625%) (or not less than $0.09375 per MT
of such Overage Amount Produced) of gross revenue.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) For the avoidance of doubt, it is acknowledged and agreed that any annual production volumes in an amount
greater than 8.5 MTPA of DR Grade Iron Ore Pellets at the Property for a Calendar Year, will not be eligible to count towards the Base
Royalty Annual Volumes nor be eligible for royalty payments at the Base Royalty Rate and such amounts shall only be paid at the Overage
Royalty Rate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Further, the Purchaser hereby agrees, that upon the request of the Vendor on or after the occurrence of
the Step Down Date, to promptly deliver any requested documentation to evidence the step down in royalty rates described under this Section 2.5,
including any documentation requested to be notarized and recorded in the real property records of Itasca County, Minnesota, related to
the step down of the royalties described herein.

**2.6**  **<u>Option to Purchase Additional Royalty</u>** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.6, the Vendor hereby grants to the Purchaser
an option (the "**Option**") to purchase an additional one percent (1.00% of 8/8ths) gross revenue royalty from the annual
produced amount of DR Grade Iron Ore Pellets from the Property (the "**Option Royalty Interest** "), from the Retained Royalty
after the Closing Date, for the Option Exercise Price (as defined below), exercisable only during the Option Exercise Period (as defined
below) and in accordance with this Section 2.6.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Option Royalty Interest</u> 

The Option Royalty Interest shall be computed on the following terms, which are substantially similar to those set forth in the Purchased Royalty Agreement but shall be computed accordingly for the Option Royalty Interest:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) **Base Rate:** Payable on a quarterly basis, 1.00% (of 8/8ths) gross revenue royalty from the on annual production of DR Grade Iron Ore Pellets from the Property in a volume of up to but not to exceed 8.5 MTPA in any Calendar Year (in an amount not lower than at least $1.50 per MT);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) **Overage Rate (above 8.5 MTPA):** Upon the date on which the Overage Amount has been produced, then a royalty amount of 0.25% (of 8/8ths) on the gross revenue on production exceeding 8.5 MTPA in any Calendar Year (or not less than $0.375 per MT of such Overage Amount Produced), until the occurrence of the Option Step Down Date (as defined below); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) **Step Down:** On the Step Down Date, and for all production thereafter: (A) the rate set forth in Section 2.6(b)(i) above shall be reduced to 0.25% (of 8/8ths) (or at least $0.375 per MT); and (B) the rate set forth in Section 2.6(b)(ii) above shall be reduced to 0.0625% (of 8/8ths) (or not less than $0.09375 per MT of such Overage Amount Produced). For the avoidance of doubt, production volumes in excess of 8.5 MTPA in any Calendar Year shall not be eligible to count towards the volumes applicable to the rate set forth in Section 2.6(b)(i) above for the Option Royalty Interest and shall be payable only at the applicable rate set forth in Section 2.6(b)(ii) above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Option Exercise Price</u> 

The aggregate consideration payable by the Purchaser for the Option Royalty Interest (the "**Option Exercise Price**") shall be: (i) $125,000,000 in cash (the "**Option Cash Consideration**"), less a credit of $15,000,000 in respect of the Transaction Deposit rolled over pursuant to Section 2.2(d), resulting in a net cash payment of $110,000,000 due and owing at the Option Closing (as defined below); *plus* (ii) the issuance of common shares in the capital of the Purchaser Parent, as directed by the Purchaser, pursuant to a supplemental subscription agreement on terms substantially similar to the Subscription Agreement and to be entered into by and between the Vendor and the Purchaser Parent, having an aggregate value of $7,500,000, valued at the same per-share price as the Share Consideration (the "**Option Share Consideration**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Option Exercise Period</u> 

The Purchaser may exercise the Option by delivering a written notice of exercise to the Vendor (the "**Option Exercise Notice**") prior to the Closing Date (the "**Option Exercise Period**"). The Option Exercise Notice shall (i) include a certificate by the Vendor certifying compliance with all terms required under this Section 2.6 to exercise such Option, including confirmation that the Option Cash Consideration is held in escrow subject to the Option Closing and (ii) confirm the Purchaser's election to exercise the Option and to acquire the Additional Purchased Royalty, subject to the satisfaction of each condition in this Section 2.6, or the waiver thereof by the Vendor in its sole discretion, on or before the Option Outside Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Closing under the Option</u> 

If the Option is duly exercised pursuant to Section 2.6(d) of this Agreement, the closing of the purchase and sale of the Option Royalty Interest (the "**Option Closing**") shall take place on a date to be mutually agreed by the Parties in writing (the "**Option Closing Date**"), provided such date shall be no later than forty-five (45) calendar days following the Closing Date (the "**Option Outside Date**"). The closing mechanics, deliverables and conditions set out in Article 5 and Article 6 of this Agreement shall apply *mutatis mutandis* to the Option Closing, and the Purchaser shall pay the Option Exercise Price (net of the Transaction Deposit set out in Section 2.2(d)) at the Option Closing. For greater certainty, if the Closing does not occur, an Option Exercise Notice shall be of no force and effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Lapse of Option</u> 

If: (i) the Purchaser fails to deliver the Option Exercise Notice prior to the expiry of the Option Exercise Period; or (ii) the Option is exercised but the Option Closing does not occur on or before the Option Outside Date for any reason other than the default of the Vendor pursuant to Section 3.1(c) (only in respect of the final sentence), 3.1(f), 3.1(g) or 3.1(h), the Option shall automatically and irrevocably lapse and terminate without further action by any Party and, in occurrences of either case (i) or (ii), the Option Exercise Notice shall be of no force and effect. Upon such lapse: (A) the Vendor shall retain the Option Royalty Interest free and clear of any obligation to the Purchaser arising from this Section 2.6 or otherwise; (B) this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect solely with respect to the relevant terms of the Purchased Royalty Agreement; and (C) unless a Deposit Refund Condition has occurred prior to the Option Closing Date, the Transaction Deposit shall be considered forfeited by the Purchaser and retained by the Vendor as liquidated damages, and therefore no refund of the Transaction Deposit shall be owed to the Purchaser by reason of the lapse or termination of the Option. If a Deposit Refund Condition occurs after Closing and prior to the Option Closing Date, Section 2.2(c) shall apply, mutatis mutandis

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) <u>Representations, Warranties and Covenants</u> 

Each Party agrees that the representations and warranties set out in Article 3 and the covenants set out in Article 4 of this Agreement shall apply mutatis mutandis to the Option Royalty Interest and the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.6 as if references therein to the "Purchased Royalty" and the "Closing" were references to the Option Royalty Interest and the Option Closing, respectively.

document, instrument or agreement contemplated hereunder, required to consummate the Transaction would require an Affiliate of such Party

the value of the Retained Royalty.

such Asset Taxes shall (i) in the case of Asset Taxes that are based upon or related to sales or receipts or imposed on a transactional

to those of its Representatives who need to know such Confidential Information for the purpose of implementing the Transaction (including

Date, only if the Purchaser exercised the Option and purchased the Additional Purchased Royalty, in the event that MIUSA or the Vendor
intends to sell a part of or entire remaining interest in the Retained Royalty after the Option Closing Date hereinafter (the "**ROFO Interest** "), the Purchaser shall be afforded a right of first offer (the "**ROFO**") for twelve months from the
Option Closing Date, in accordance with this Section 4.5.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Notice and Response</u>. MIUSA and the Vendor shall provide the Purchaser with a written notice of
an intent to sell. The Purchaser shall have 15 days to deliver a non-binding indicative offer (the "**ROFO Offer**") specifying

such period, the ROFO shall be deemed waived for such sale.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Negotiation Period</u>. If the Purchaser delivers a ROFO Offer, the Parties shall negotiate in good
faith for a period not to exceed 15 days to execute a binding agreement in respect of such ROFO Interest.

of 12 months thereafter, requiring no further notice thereof to the Purchaser. The Vendor, MIUSA or its Affiliate, as applicable, shall
be permitted to consummate such sale provided that the net economic value of the third-party deal (including the valuation of non-cash
consideration or closing certainty) as determined by the Vendor and MIUSA, in their sole discretion, is not less than 100% of the price
offered by the Purchaser in the ROFO Offer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Exempt Transfers</u>. The ROFO shall not apply to any transfer to the [\*\*\*] or to an Affiliate
of the Vendor, any pledge of an interest in the Retained Royalty for financing purposes, or any sale of the interest as part of a "package
deal" involving other assets where the Retained Royalty represents less than 50% of the total transaction value.

**4.6**  **<u>Exclusivity</u>** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Except as expressly provided in this Section 4.6 and only until the Closing Date, the Vendor and

or offer that constitutes or may reasonably be expected to constitute or lead to, an Alternative Transaction; (iii) accept or enter

or lead to, an Alternative Transaction.

of the restrictions and obligations set out in this Section 4.6 and any violation of the restrictions and obligations set forth in
this Section 4.6 by their Representatives shall be deemed to be a breach of this Section 4.6 by the Vendor and MIUSA.

The Purchaser Parent shall promptly reimburse the Vendor for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) incurred by the Vendor or any of its Affiliates in connection with providing assistance pursuant to this Section 4.7.

Purchaser to the Vendor, if there has been a material breach of any representation, warranty or covenant on the part of the Vendor contained
in this Agreement or if any condition specified in Section 6.1,6.2 or 6.4 would be incapable of being satisfied at the Closing and
such breach or failure to satisfy such condition, as applicable, is not waived by the Purchaser or cured by the Vendor by the earlier
of (i) twenty (20) Business Days after notice thereof from the Purchaser, or (ii) the Closing Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing by the Vendor, upon notice from the
Vendor to the Purchaser, if there has been a breach of any representation, warranty or covenant on the part of the Purchaser or the Purchaser
Parent contained in this Agreement or if any condition specified in Sections 6.1 or 6.3 is incapable of being satisfied at the Closing
and such breach or failure to satisfy such condition, as applicable, is not waived by the Vendor or cured by the Purchaser by the earlier
of (i) twenty (20) Business Days after notice thereof from the Vendor, or (ii) the Closing Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) This Agreement may be terminated by either the Vendor, on the one hand, or the Purchaser on the other
hand, upon notice from the Party seeking to terminate this Agreement to the other Party, if the Closing has not occurred by the Outside
Date provided that a Party may not terminate this Agreement under this Section 6.5(c) if its failure to fulfill any of its obligation
or its breach of any of its representations and covenants has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of Closing to occur by the
Closing Date (including the Purchaser's failure to close the Equity and Debt Financing). Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Agreement, if this Agreement is terminated, the provisions of Section 2.2(c), Section 4.4, Article 7, Section 8.3,
Section 8.5 and Section 8.6 shall survive such termination and remain in full force and effect, along with any other provisions
of this Agreement which expressly or by their nature survive the termination hereof.

**Article 7<br> SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND INDEMNIFICATION**

**7.1**  **<u>Survival</u>** 

All provisions of this Agreement and of any other agreement, certificate or instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement, other than the conditions in Sections 6.1, 6.2, 6.3 and 6.4 hereof, shall not merge on Closing but shall survive the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Closing and the execution and delivery of any assignment documents or other documents of title and all other agreements, certificates and instruments delivered pursuant to this Agreement and the payment of the consideration for hereunder.

**7.2**  **<u>Indemnity by the Vendor</u>** 

The Vendor shall indemnify the Purchaser Indemnified Parties and save them fully harmless against, and will reimburse them for, any and all Losses actually suffered arising from or resulting in any manner whatsoever to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) any incorrectness in or breach of any representation or warranty of the Vendor contained in this Agreement
or in any other agreement, certificate or instrument executed and delivered pursuant to this Agreement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) any breach or any non-fulfilment of any covenant or agreement on the part of the Vendor contained in this
Agreement or in any other agreement, certificate or instrument executed and delivered the Vendor, pursuant to this Agreement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Asset Taxes allocable to the Vendor pursuant to Section 4.3(b);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Excluded Taxes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) any breach of the representation by the Vendor of its conveyance of good and defensible title of the Purchased
Royalty to the Purchaser, as contained in the Purchased Royalty Agreement or this Agreement; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) any violation of the rights of any Person as a result of the conveyance of the Purchased Royalty to the
Purchaser, solely to the extent resulting from the bad faith or willful misconduct of the Vendor prior to the Closing Date, provided that
Losses under this Section 7.2(f) shall only be recoverable to the extent such bad faith or willful misconduct by the Vendor
has been finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or agreed upon by the applicable Indemnifying Party.

**7.3**  **<u>Indemnity by the Purchaser</u>** 

The Purchaser and the Purchaser Parent shall, jointly and severally, indemnify the Vendor Indemnified Parties and save them fully harmless against, and will reimburse them for, any and all Losses actually suffered arising from or resulting in any manner whatsoever to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) any incorrectness in or breach of any representation or warranty of the Purchaser or the Purchaser Parent
contained in this Agreement or in any other agreement, certificate or instrument executed and delivered pursuant to this Agreement; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) any breach or non-fulfilment of any covenant or agreement on the part of the Purchaser or the Purchaser
Parent contained in this Agreement or in any other agreement, certificate or instrument executed and delivered pursuant to this Agreement.

**7.4**  **<u>Claim Notice</u>** 

If an Indemnified Party becomes aware of any act, omission or state of facts that may give rise to Losses in respect of which a right of indemnification is provided for under this Article 7, the Indemnified Party shall promptly give written notice thereof (a "**Claim Notice**") to the Indemnifying Party. The Claim Notice shall specify whether the potential Losses arise as a result of a claim by a Person against the Indemnified Party (a "**Third Party Claim**") or whether the potential Losses arise as a result of a claim directly by the Indemnified Party against the Indemnifying Party (a "**Direct Claim**"), and shall also specify with reasonable particularity (to the extent that the information is available):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the factual basis for the Direct Claim or Third Party Claim, as the case may be; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the amount of the potential Losses arising therefrom, to the extent known.

For the avoidance of doubt, a Claim Notice may be delivered in respect of contingent or potential Losses that have not yet been finally determined or quantified, and the delivery of such Claim Notice shall be sufficient to preserve the Indemnified Party's rights under this Article 7, provided that the Claim Notice describes the information set forth above.

**7.5**  **<u>Time Limits for Claim Notice for Breach of Representations and Warranties</u>** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Notice by the Purchaser*. No Losses may be recovered from the Vendor pursuant to Section 7.2(a) unless
a Claim Notice is delivered by the Purchaser, on or before the date that is 24 months after the Closing Date, provided, however, that
in the event of fraud relating to a representation or warranty of the Vendor, then notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser shall
be entitled to deliver a Claim Notice up to 72 months after the Closing Date for the purposes of such claim.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Notice by the Vendor*. No Losses may be recovered from the Purchaser pursuant to Section 7.3(a) 
unless a Claim Notice is delivered by the Vendor on or before the date that is 24 months after the Closing Date, provided, however, that
in the event of fraud relating to a representation or warranty of the Purchaser, then notwithstanding the foregoing, the Vendor shall
be entitled to deliver a Claim Notice up to 72 months after the Closing Date.

**7.6**  **<u>Monetary Limitations</u>** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Limitation of Liability*. For the purposes of computing the aggregate amount of Losses incurred
by the Indemnified Party under Section 7.2 and this Section 7.6, the amount of the Losses that may be recovered shall be limited
to an amount equal to the amount of Losses that remain after deducting therefrom (i) any third-party insurance and any indemnity,
contributions or other similar payment paid or payable by any third-party with respect thereto (but for greater certainty, Losses will
include all costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party to realize such third-party insurance, contributions or other similar
payments, including any insurance deductible payments and any increase to premiums resulting from an insurance claim), and (ii) any
net Tax benefit recognized (by reason of a Tax deduction, basis judgment, shifting of income, credit and/or deductions or otherwise) by
the Indemnified Party thereof with respect to the Losses or items giving rise to such claim for indemnification.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Recovery from Third Party*. In any case where an Indemnified Party recovers from third Persons any
amount in respect of a matter with respect to which the Indemnifying Party has indemnified it pursuant to this Agreement, such Indemnified
Party shall promptly pay over to the Indemnifying Party the amount so recovered except to the extent that such amount has already been
deducted in calculating the Losses pursuant to Section 7.6(a) (after deducting therefrom the full amount of the expenses incurred
by the Indemnified Party in procuring such recovery), but not in excess of the sum of (i) any amount previously so paid by the Indemnifying
Party to or on behalf of the Indemnified Party in respect of such matter and (ii) any amount expended by the Indemnifying Party in
pursuing or defending any claim arising out of such matter *.* 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *Losses from the Vendor*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) No individual Loss may be recovered from the Vendor pursuant to Section 7.2 unless the amount of such individual Loss exceeds [\*\*\*] (the "**De Minimis Amount**"), and any individual Loss that does not exceed the De Minimis Amount shall not be aggregated with other Losses for the purposes of this Section 7.6(c).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) No Losses (other than Losses below the De Minimis Amount) may be recovered from the Vendor pursuant to Section 7.2 unless and until the accumulated aggregate amount of Losses of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties arising pursuant to Section 7.2 (excluding any individual Loss below the De Minimis Amount) exceeds [\*\*\*] (the "**Basket**"), in which event only the accumulated aggregate amount of all such Losses in excess of the Basket may be recovered, up to a maximum aggregate amount of [\*\*\*] (the "**Cap**") provided that, upon the exercise of the Option and the consummation of the purchase and sale of the Additional Purchased Royalty pursuant to Section 2.6, the Cap shall increase to a cumulative maximum aggregate amount of [\*\*\*]. The Cap shall not apply to claims under Section 7.2(d) or Section 7.2(e), or claims to recover Losses based on fraud or intentional misrepresentation by the Vendor or MIUSA, but such claims, in the aggregate, may only be recovered up to a maximum of the Cash Consideration, but the Cap shall apply to all claims under Section 7.2(a), Section 7.2(b) Section 7.2(c) and Section 7.2(f) in the aggregate. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (i) if the Option is not exercised during the Option Exercise Period, the Basket shall be reduced to [\*\*\*] or (ii) if the Option is exercised, but the Option Closing does not occur, the Basket shall be reduced to [\*\*\*] at the Option Outside Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) For the avoidance of doubt, the limitations set forth in this Section 7.6(c)(i) and (ii) above shall have no application to any claim to recover Losses resulting from fraud or intentional misrepresentation by the Vendor or MIUSA.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *Losses from the Purchaser*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) No individual Loss may be recovered from the Purchaser pursuant to Section 7.3 unless the amount of such individual Loss exceeds the De Minimis Amount.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) No Losses (other than Losses below the De Minimis Amount) may be recovered from the Purchaser pursuant to Section 7.3 unless and until the accumulated aggregate amount of Losses of the Vendor Indemnified Parties arising pursuant to Section 7.3 (excluding any individual Loss below the De Minimis Amount) exceeds the Basket, in which event only the accumulated aggregate amount of all such Losses in excess of the Basket may be recovered, up to a maximum of the Cap, provided that, the De Minimis Amount, the Basket and the Cap shall not apply to any claim to recover Losses based on fraud or intentional misrepresentation by the Purchaser or the Purchaser Parent.

**7.7**  **<u>Agency for Non-Parties</u>** 

Notwithstanding Section 8.8, each Party hereby accepts each indemnity in favor of each of its Indemnified Parties who are not Parties as agent and trustee of that Indemnified Party. Each Party may enforce an indemnity in favor of any of that Party's Indemnified Parties on behalf of each such Indemnified Party.

**7.8**  **<u>Direct Claims</u>** 

In the case of a Direct Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have sixty (60) days from receipt of a Claim Notice in respect thereof within which to make such investigation as the Indemnifying Party considers necessary or desirable. For the purpose of such investigation, the Indemnified Party shall make available to the Indemnifying Party the information relied upon by the Indemnified Party to substantiate its right to be indemnified under this Article 7, together with all such other information as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request. If the Parties fail to agree at or before the expiration of such sixty (60) day period (or any mutually agreed upon extension thereof), the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to it.

**7.9**  **<u>Third Party Claims</u>** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Rights of Indemnifying Party*. In the event a Claim Notice is delivered with respect to a Third
Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days from its receipt of a Claim Notice to notify the Indemnified Party whether
the Indemnifying Party desires, at the Indemnifying Parties' sole cost and expense and by counsel of its own choosing, to assume
and control the defense of the Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party undertakes to assume and control the defense of a Third Party
Claim, (i) the Indemnifying Party shall use its reasonable efforts to defend against such Third Party Claim and (ii) the Indemnifying
Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed
or conditioned), consent to any settlement which (A) does not contain a full and final release of the Indemnified Party from the
subject matter of such Third Party Claim and settlement, (B) requires an express admission of wrongdoing by the Indemnified Party
or (C) provides for injunctive or other non-monetary relief affecting the Indemnified Party in any way. The Indemnified Party shall
co-operate with the Indemnifying Party so as to permit the Indemnifying Party to participate in such negotiation, settlement and defense
and for this purpose shall preserve all relevant documents in relation to the Third Party Claim, allow the Indemnifying Party access on
reasonable notice to inspect and take copies of all such documents and require its personnel to provide such statements as the Indemnifying
Party may reasonably require and to attend and give evidence at any trial or hearing in respect of the Third Party Claim.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Respective Rights on Indemnifying Party's Assumption of Control*. If the Indemnifying Party
elects to assume control of the defense of the Third Party Claim as contemplated in Section 7.9(a), the Indemnifying Party shall
reimburse the Indemnified Party for all of the Indemnified Party's reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred as
a result of such assumption. The Indemnified Party shall continue to have the right to participate in the negotiation, settlement or defense
of such Third Party Claim and to retain counsel to act on its behalf, provided that the fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be
paid by the Indemnified Party (without any reimbursement by the Indemnifying Party) unless the representation of both the Indemnifying
Party and the Indemnified Party by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to the actual or potential differing interests between
them (such as the availability of different defenses), in which case the fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be paid by the Indemnifying
Party. The Indemnified Party shall co-operate with the Indemnifying Party so as to permit the Indemnifying Party to conduct such negotiation,
settlement and defense and for this purpose shall preserve all relevant documents in relation to the Third Party Claim, allow the Indemnifying
Party access on reasonable notice to inspect and take copies of all such documents and require its personnel to provide such statements
as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably require and to attend and give evidence at any trial or hearing in respect of the Third Party
Claim.

**7.10**  **<u>Interest on Losses</u>** 

The amount of any Losses which is subject to indemnification hereunder shall bear interest at the Prime Rate, calculated on a simple (non-compounding) basis, from and including the date on which such Loss is finally determined (whether by mutual agreement of the Parties, final non-appealable judgment, arbitral award or settlement) to but excluding the date reimbursement of such Losses by the Indemnifying Party is made, and the amount of such interest shall be deemed to be part of such Losses.

**7.11**  **<u>Cooperation</u>** 

Each Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party shall reasonably cooperate and assist each other in determining the validity of any claim for indemnity by an Indemnified Party and otherwise in resolving such matters. Such assistance and cooperation will include providing reasonable access to information, records and documents relating to such matters and furnishing employees to assist in the investigation, defense and resolution of such matters.

**Article 8<br> MISCELLANEOUS**

**8.1**  **<u>Public Documents</u>** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) No Party shall issue any press release or otherwise make public announcements with respect to this Agreement
without the consent of the other Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that the foregoing

further consent.

**8.11**  **<u>No Waiver</u>** 

The failure of a Party to insist on the strict performance of any provision of this Agreement or to exercise any right, power, or remedy upon a breach hereof shall not constitute a waiver of any provision of this Agreement or limit the Party's right thereafter to enforce any provision or exercise any right hereunder.

**8.12**  **<u>Time of Essence</u>** 

Time is of the essence in the performance of any and all of the obligations of the Parties, including, without limitation, the payment of monies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) The Assignor does hereby GRANT, BARGAIN, SELL, CONVEY, ASSIGN, TRANSFER, SET OVER and DELIVER unto the Assignee, its successors and assigns, effective as of the Effective Time, an overriding royalty interest at the rates, set forth below in <u>Section 1.3</u> of this Conveyance in regards to and burdening (i) each of those certain mineral leases and subleases described specifically on **Exhibit "B"** attached hereto and made a part hereof (the "<u>Burdened Leases</u>") and the lands covered thereby (the "<u>Lands</u>", and together with the Burdened Leases and Mineral Tracts, the "<u>Royalty Properties</u>") and (ii) all Minerals that may be produced hereinafter from or otherwise allocated to such Burdened Leases and Lands (the "<u>Overriding Royalty Interest</u>" and together with the Fee Mineral Royalty, the "<u>Conveyed Royalties</u>").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that the percentage of the Conveyed Royalties shall be determined based on 100% (of 8/8ths) of (i) the full interest in each applicable Mineral Tract, Burdened Lease and Lands, and (ii) all Minerals that may be produced therefrom, in each case, notwithstanding the fact that the Landowners may not be entitled to 100% of such interest and all such Minerals. It is further understood and agreed that the Conveyed Royalties shall be subject to the terms of this Conveyance and shall be valued and paid as further described in <u>Articles I</u>, <u>II</u> and <u>III</u> of this Conveyance and the Annexes hereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding any term to the contrary herein, in no event shall the Conveyed Royalties include the Excluded Assets (as defined below).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) all rights, titles, claims, and interests of the Landowners, the Assignor or their Affiliates arising from acts, omissions or events related to, or damage to or destruction of, the Royalty Properties prior to the Effective Time, in each case, (i) under any policy or agreement of insurance or indemnity held by, or in favor of, the Landowners, the Assignor or their Affiliates, (ii) under any bond, or (iii) to any insurance or condemnation proceeds or awards;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) all claims of the Landowners, the Assignor or their Affiliates for refunds of, rights to receive funds from any Governmental Authority, or loss carry forwards or credits with respect to any taxes of the Assignor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) all Subject Minerals (as defined below) produced from or attributable to the Royalty Properties prior to the Effective Time and the proceeds therefrom;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) all surface and other real property rights in and related to the Mineral Tracts and Lands owned or controlled by the Assignor or the Landowners other than the Conveyed Royalties;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) except for the information and data provided to the Assignee and its Affiliates under the Purchased Royalty Agreement, all of the Assignor's and its Affiliates' books, files, records, information and data of any kind or character; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) all of Assignor's or its Affiliates' rights, titles, claims, and interests in and to any other properties (including mineral interests other than the Minerals, including oil and gas and other hydrocarbons produced or processed in association therewith) not specifically described or included in the definition of "Conveyed Royalties"; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) the Retained Royalty.

**Section 1.3** **<u>Purchased Royalty</u>**. The Assignor and the Assignee hereby acknowledge and agree that the Conveyed Royalties shall be computed on the terms and rates as set forth in this Section 1.3:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) On the gross revenue from annual production of DR Grade Iron Ore Pellets from the Royalty Properties in a volume up to but not exceeding 8.5 million metric tons per annum in any Calendar Year (for each such year, the "<u>Base Royalty Annual Volumes</u>" and the cumulative total volumes for all Base Royalty Annual Volumes, the "<u>Total Base Royalty Volumes</u>"), the Conveyed Royalties shall be defined as and be computed at, a rate equal to one percent (1% of 8/8ths, subject to the terms of Section 1.1(b) above) of gross revenue, subject to a minimum payment amount of $1.50 per metric ton of such Base Royalty Annual Volumes (the "<u>Base Royalty Rate</u>").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) On the gross revenue from annual production of DR Grade Iron Ore Pellets from the Royalty Properties in any Calendar Year in excess of 8.5 million metric tons per annum (such excess, the "<u>Overage Amount Produced</u>"), such portion of the Conveyed Royalties shall be defined and computed at a rate equal to one-fourth of one percent (0.25% of 8/8ths, subject to the terms of Section 1.1(b) above) of gross revenue, subject to a floor or minimum payment of $0.375 per metric ton for such Overage Amount Produced (the "<u>Overage Royalty Rate</u>") in that Calendar Year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) On the date that the Total Base Royalty Volumes equals or exceeds 170 million metric tons (such date, the "<u>Step Down Date</u>"), for all times thereafter, (i) the Base Royalty Rate is reduced, and shall thereafter be computed at an amount equal to one-fourth of one-percent (0.25% of 8/8ths, subject to the terms of Section 1.1(b) above) of gross revenue, subject to a floor or minimum payment of $0.375 per metric ton for all Base Royalty Annual Volumes, and (ii) the Overage Royalty Rate applicable to all production above the Base Royalty Annual Volumes for each Calendar Year, shall also be reduced, and be computed thereafter at an amount equal to one-sixteenth of one-percent (0.0625% of 8/8ths, subject to the terms of Section 1.1(b) above) of gross revenue, subject to a floor or minimum payment of $0.09375 per metric ton.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) For the avoidance of doubt, annual production volumes in excess of 8.5 million metric tons per annum of DR Grade Iron Ore Pellets shall neither count toward the Base Royalty Annual Volumes nor shall they be eligible for royalty payments at the Base Royalty Rate; such volumes shall only be paid at the Overage Royalty Rate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The Assignee hereby agrees that, upon request of the Assignor on or after the occurrence of the Step Down Date, the Assignee shall promptly deliver any requested documentation to evidence the step down in royalty rates described under this Section 1.3, including any documentation requested to be notarized and recorded in the real property records of Itasca County, Minnesota.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Under no circumstances for any Calendar Year will the Conveyed Royalties ever exceed the total royalties payable to the Assignor under the Existing Royalty Agreement, prior to giving effect to any deduction under Section 2.2(e) of the Existing Royalty Agreement. "Calendar Year" in this Conveyance shall mean a consecutive twelve month period commencing on January 1 and ending on December 31 of the same year.

*See attached **Annex 1** for a Sample Calculation of the royalty rates for the Conveyed Royalties and **Annex 2** for a chart that summarizes the Conveyed Royalties as set forth in Section 1.3. For the avoidance of doubt, upon and following the Step Down Date, the Assignee's share of the royalties as described in Section 1.3 shall be permanently reduced in accordance with this Section 1.3(c), and the Assignor shall retain the difference between the Conveyed Royalty immediately before the Step Down Date and the Conveyed Royalty immediately after the Step Down Date (the "<u>Royalty Differential</u>"), and on the Step Down Date and thereafter, such Royalty Differential will become part of the "Retained Royalty".*

In the event of any dispute among the Parties regarding the royalty rates or the computation or calculation of royalty amounts under this Section 1.3, the Parties hereby agree to use good faith efforts to resolve such dispute prior to any other form of dispute resolution or legal proceeding.

**TO HAVE AND TO HOLD** the Conveyed Royalties hereby assigned unto the Assignee, its successors and assigns forever, subject to the definitions herein and the reduction in royalty rates for any Overage Amount Produced from and after the Step Down Date, and the other matters set forth herein. This Conveyance is, as to the Conveyed Royalties described herein, an absolute conveyance of a real property interest.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If the Landowners take additional lease agreements in the Lands, and such lease agreements become part of the Existing Royalty Agreement, then the Conveyed Royalties herein assigned shall extend to any subsequently acquired mineral lease agreement or interest acquired through any such New Mineral Lease Agreement without further consideration.

**Section 2.2** **<u>Valuation</u>**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) As used in this Conveyance, "<u>Subject Minerals</u>" means all Minerals produced from or attributable to the Royalty Properties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Parties acknowledge and agree that, to the extent not taken in-kind by the Assignee: (i) the value of the Royalty Minerals cannot be realized until the Landowners remove, treat, retreat and pelletize (as applicable) and ship such Subject Minerals as iron ore pellets, iron ore concentrate, and/or unprocessed iron ore (collectively, the "<u>Final Products</u>"), pursuant to production, sales, purchase, exchange, or other marketing contract(s) pursuant to which the Final Products are ultimately sold to third parties; and (ii) the Assignor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Landowners to remove, treat, retreat and pelletize (as applicable) the Royalty Minerals and ship the resultant Final Products pursuant to production, sales, purchase, exchange, or other marketing contract(s) pursuant to which the Final Products are ultimately sold to third parties in order to realize the value of the Royalty Minerals for the benefit of the Assignee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The Assignor shall be responsible for and bear all *ad valorem*, property, production, severance taxes, sales, use, and excise chargeable against the Conveyed Royalties.

**Section 2.3** **<u>Right to Take In-Kind.</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Upon 36 months' prior written notice to the Assignor (who shall promptly deliver such notice to the Landowners under the Existing Royalty Agreement), and only to the extent not already committed under offtake or similar agreements, the Assignee may elect to take any Royalty as Minerals-in-kind, as Minerals so extracted (and, for the avoidance of doubt, not Final Products) at the mine pit and at the Assignee's sole cost and expense. For the avoidance of doubt, the Assignee's right to take Royalty Minerals-in-kind may be exercised on a lease-by-lease or tract-by-tract basis with respect to each of the Burdened Leases or Mineral Tracts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If the Assignee elects to exercise its right to take any Royalty Minerals-in-kind:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) To the extent it has the right to do so, the Assignor hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Landowners to grant to the Assignee, to the extent the Landowners have the right to do so upon the Assignee's first election to take a Mineral-in-kind, a non-exclusive license over and across the roads constructed on the Lands and Mineral Tracts, and such lands pooled, communitized or unitized therewith for the sole and exclusive purpose of receiving, accepting and taking the Royalty Minerals at the applicable mine pit and at the Assignee's sole cost and expense. This license may be terminated by the applicable Landowner as necessary to control access to the mine(s) and to comply with applicable laws, prudent operations, or safety requirements. To the extent the Assignee exercises its right to take any Minerals-in-kind, the Assignee covenants and agrees to indemnify, defend, release and hold harmless the Assignor and its Affiliates, the Landowners and their respective Affiliates, each lessor, surface owner, co-tenant and other working interest owners, and each of such Person's respective shareholders, members, officers, directors, employees, agents, lenders, advisors, representatives, accountants, attorneys and consultants from and against all obligations, liabilities, claims, causes of action, and losses caused by, arising out of, attributable to or resulting from (i) the custody, possession, control, receipt, transportation, measurement, treatment and marketing of such Minerals from and after receipt of the Royalty Minerals and (ii) the Assignee's access, ingress and egress from and over the Lands and Mineral Tracts, EVEN IF ANY SUCH OBLIGATIONS, LIABILITIES, CLAIMS, CAUSES OF ACTION AND DAMAGES ARE CAUSED IN WHOLE OR IN PART BY THE NEGLIGENCE (WHETHER SOLE, JOINT, ACTIVE, PASSIVE, COMPARATIVE OR CONCURRENT), STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHER LEGAL FAULT OF ANY INDEMNIFIED PERSON OR ANY OF THE ASSIGNOR'S OR ANY LANDOWNER'S INVITEES OR THIRD PARTIES, BUT EXCLUDING DAMAGES CAUSED BY, ARISING OUT OF, ATTRIBUTABLE TO OR RESULTING FROM THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF ANY INDEMNIFIED PERSON.

**Section 2.4** **<u>Operation of the Burdened Leases, Lands and Mineral Interests</u>**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Assignee acknowledges that the Landowners may conduct and carry on, or may contract for, the exploration, development, maintenance and operation of the Royalty Properties in any manner they so desire, without regard to the Conveyed Royalties and without any liability to the Assignee.

The Assignor hereby represents and warrants good and defensible title to the Conveyed Royalties, and except as the Assignor has disclosed to the Assignee in the Purchased Royalty Agreement, the Conveyed Royalties are free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, security interests or other adverse claims, in each case arising by, through or under the Assignor, but not otherwise. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, this Conveyance is made without any warranty of title, express or implied, by the Assignor.

**Section 2.6** **<u>Subrogation</u>**. The Assignee is specifically assigned, and subrogated to, those relevant portions of such warranties of title that the Assignor or its Affiliates may have received from their respective predecessors in interest (including the Landowners under the Existing Royalty Agreement) (but excluding all warranties of title purportedly made by the Assignor, its Affiliates, and any of their respective Representatives, other than those set forth in the Purchased Royalty Agreement and this Conveyance) to the extent applicable to the Conveyed Royalties, Burdened Leases, Lands and Mineral Tracts and to the extent the Assignor may legally assign such rights and grant such subrogation; *provided, however*, that (i) the Assignee shall notify the Assignor in writing if the Assignee intends to pursue a claim pursuant to this Section 2.6, (ii) the Assignor shall have 30 days from receipt of such notice from the Assignee to notify the Assignee whether the Assignor also intend to pursue a claim on the same or similar basis against a conveying Party or predecessor in interest and (iii) if the Assignor notifies the Assignee of its intent to pursue a claim on the same or similar basis against a predecessor in interest, the Assignee shall reasonably cooperate with the Assignor in pursuing any such claim.

**ARTICLE IV.<br> TRANSFERS**

**Section 4.1** **<u>Generally</u>**. Except as provided in this Conveyance, no Party shall Transfer all or any part of the Conveyed Royalties, nor shall any Party delegate any of its rights or duties under the Purchased Royalty Agreement or this Conveyance, without the prior written consent of the other Party (and, in the case of a Transfer by the Assignee, the prior written consent of each Landowner) and any transfer or delegation made without appropriate consent shall be null and void; *provided* that, the Assignee may assign or transfer all or any part of the Conveyed Royalties, or delegate any of its rights or duties under the Purchased Royalty Agreement or this Conveyance, to a Permitted Transferee without the Assignor's consent (but subject to prior notice to the Assignor and the Landowners pursuant to Section 4.3). The limitations set forth herein are intended to be and shall be considered covenants that run with the real property rights conveyed by the Conveyed Royalties and shall be binding upon the heirs, successors and assigns of the Conveyed Royalties. As used herein, "Permitted Transferee" shall mean any Person other than (a) a Person that owns or operates an iron-bearing mineral deposit, mine or processing facility in the State of Minnesota, or (b) a Person that has any Affiliates that own or operate, in each case, an iron-bearing mineral deposit, mine or processing facility in the State of Minnesota, *provided, however*, that in no event shall a Permitted Transferee nor shall any of its Affiliates (i) have been or be in a dispute with any Landowner or their respective Affiliates as of the date hereof to which a search of public records has shown such dispute or (ii) have been or be in a dispute with any Landowner or their respective Affiliates pursuant to which such potential Permitted Transferee or its Affiliates has filed such claim or such dispute against any Landowner or their respective Affiliates. Unless expressly agreed to in writing by the Parties, no permitted assignment of any Party's rights or duties that is subject to the consent of the other Parties shall relieve or release the assigning Party from the performance of such Party's rights or obligations hereunder and such assigning Party shall be fully liable to the other Parties for the performance of all such rights and duties. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 4.1 shall be interpreted to require the consent of a Party in connection with the other Party's change of control, merger, consolidation or stock sale. "Transfer" shall mean any direct or indirect sale, conveyance, assignment, lease, sublease or other transfer; *provided*, *however*, that in no event shall any mortgage, deed of trust, pledge, grant of lien or other security interest constitute a "Transfer".

**Section 4.2** **<u>Assignor Transfers. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary</u>**:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) no Transfer by the Assignor of any interest in the Conveyed Royalties, or of its rights under this Conveyance will release or relieve the Assignor from its obligations hereunder with respect to any periods, or those obligations that accrued, prior to the effective time of such Transfer; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) for the avoidance of doubt, the Assignor shall be permitted to grant additional royalties and other burdens with respect to the Burdened Leases, Lands and Mineral Tracts after the date this Conveyance is filed in the relevant records of each applicable county in which the lands subject to the Burdened Leases are located, so long as any such royalties and other burdens do not diminish the rights of the Assignee with respect to the Conveyed Royalties and no Person receiving an assignment or grant of any such additional royalties and burdens shall assume or be liable for any obligations of the Assignor or the Landowners under this Conveyance.

**Section 4.3** **<u>Assignee Transfers</u>**. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.1, the Assignee and its respective successors and assigns may Transfer, and nothing contained in this Conveyance will in any way limit or restrict the right of the Assignee or any such successor or assign to Transfer, any Conveyed Royalty, in whole or in part. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.1, no change of ownership or right to receive payment of any Conveyed Royalty, or of any part thereof, however accomplished, will be binding upon the Assignor, unless such change is otherwise permitted under this Conveyance, and until 15 days' prior written notice thereof has been furnished by the transferor of such Conveyed Royalty to the Assignor, and then only with respect to payments thereafter made. Until such notice shall have been furnished to the Assignor as provided above, the payment or tender of all sums payable on the Conveyed Royalties may be made in the manner provided herein as if no such change in interest or ownership or right to receive payment had occurred.

**ARTICLE V.<br> DISCLAIMERS OF WARRANTIES**

**Section 5.1** **Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this conveyance, except as and to the extent expressly set forth in the Purchased Royalty Agreement, the Purchased Royalty Agreement, or this conveyance and, in each case, any documents or instruments to be executed with respect thereto, the assignor makes no representations or warranties whatsoever, and disclaims all liability and responsibility for any representation, warranty, statement, or information made or communicated (orally or in writing) to the assignee (including any opinion, information, or advice that may have been provided to the assignee or its affiliates or representatives by any respective affiliate or representative of the assignor or by any investment bank or investment banking firm, any engineer or engineering firm, assignor's counsel, or any other agent, consultant, or representative of the assignor). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, except as and to the extent expressly set forth in the Purchased Royalty Agreement or this conveyance and, in each case, any documents or instruments to be executed with respect thereto, the assignor expressly disclaims and negates (and the assignee acknowledges such disclaimer) any representation or warranty, including any express, implied, at common law, by statute, or otherwise, relating to (a) the title to any of the royalty properties, (b) the condition of the royalty properties (including any implied or express warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or conformity to models or samples of materials), it being distinctly understood that the conveyed royalties are being sold "as is," "where is," and "with all faults as to all matters," (c) any infringement by the assignor of any patent or proprietary right of any third party, (d) any information, data, or other materials (written or oral) furnished to the assignee by or on behalf of the assignor (including the existence or extent of minerals or the mineral reserves), the recoverability of such reserves, any product pricing assumptions and the ability to sell minerals after the effective time, (e) the environmental condition and other conditions of the royalty properties and any potential liability arising from or related to the royalty properties, (f) the existence of any prospect, recompletion, infill, or step-out drilling opportunities, and (g) any estimates of the value of the royalty properties, and (h) any forecast, estimate or knowledge of or about future production from the royalty properties.**

**Section 5.2** **The assignee acknowledges that the royalty properties have been used for exploration, development, and production of certain subsurface mineral interests and that equipment and sites included in the royalty properties may contain or may be impacted by asbestos, norm or other hazardous materials. Norm may affix or attach itself to materials and equipment as scale or in other forms. The wells, materials, and equipment located on the lands covered by the burdened leases or included in the royalty properties may contain norm and other wastes or hazardous materials. Norm containing material and/or other wastes or hazardous materials may have come in contact with various environmental media, including air, water, soils or sediment. Special procedures may be required for the assessment, remediation, removal, transportation, or disposal of environmental media, wastes, asbestos, norm and other hazardous materials from the royalty properties.**

**ARTICLE VI.<br> MISCELLANEOUS**

**Section 6.1** **<u>Governing Law</u>**. All real property issues under this Conveyance shall be governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota without regard to conflicts of laws principles, and all other matters involving or otherwise relating, in any respect, to this Conveyance shall also be governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota without regard to conflicts of laws principles. **All of the parties hereto consent to the exercise of jurisdiction in personam by the state or federal courts covering Itasca county, Minnesota for any action arising out of this conveyance. All actions or proceedings with respect to, arising directly or indirectly in connection with, out of, related to, or from this conveyance shall be exclusively litigated in such courts described above having sites in Minnesota and each party irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of such courts solely in respect of any proceeding arising out of or related to this conveyance. Each party voluntarily, intentionally and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this conveyance**.

**Section 6.2** **<u>Intent; Interest Conveyed; Covenant Running with the Land</u>**. It is the intent of the Parties hereto that, under and in accordance with the laws of the State of Minnesota and for all purposes, (a) the Conveyed Royalties conveyed hereunder are, and should be considered, interests in real property and (b) the covenants and obligations of the Assignor hereunder are, and shall be, and are intended to be covenants that run with the land as to the Conveyed Royalties, which are also interests in real property. The Assignor agrees that, if it were to become the debtor in a case filed under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code at any time, it will endeavor not take any position in such a bankruptcy case that is contrary to or conflicts with the preceding sentence or take the position that the Conveyed Royalties (or any part thereof or rights therein) is a part of such Assignor's bankruptcy estate. If it is determined for any reason that either clause (a) or clause (b) of the initial sentence of this Section 6.2 is not true and correct, the Parties agree to negotiate and enter into such reasonable modifications, supplements or replacements or restatements of this Conveyance as are reasonably required (but which do not change the economics or adversely affect the rights or increase the obligations of the Assignor or the Assignee under this Conveyance) to render this Conveyance a conveyance of interests in real property, and the covenants and obligations of the Assignor hereunder to be "covenants that run with the land" for all purposes as to the Royalty Properties, in each case, to the maximum extent possible under the laws of the State of Minnesota. The obligations of the Parties and their respective assignees and successors in interest hereunder shall survive the grant of this Conveyance and any assignment or transfer or conveyance of the interests of the Parties hereunder, whether in whole or in part.

**Section 6.3** **<u>Audit</u>**. Except to the extent disclosure is restricted by third party agreement (*provided* that the Assignor will use commercially reasonable efforts, without the obligation to make any payments, to obtain the applicable consent with respect to the disclosure thereof), the Assignee shall have the right from time to time (but not more frequently than one time during a calendar year), and upon giving the Assignor 30 days' written notice, to audit the records maintained by the Landowners and their applicable Affiliates with respect to the Royalty Minerals produced during the preceding two-year period, and all information with respect to the matters to be reported on by the Assignor as provided herein. Assignor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate such audit, including by requesting the Landowners make available such records in accordance with Section 6.3 of the Existing Royalty Agreement; *provided* that in no event shall an audit cover any specific revenue or expense item included in a prior audit conducted hereunder. The Assignee shall be solely responsible for the costs and expenses of conducting any audit hereunder. Such audits shall be conducted by a nationally recognized auditing firm and shall be conducted during normal business hours at the Landowners' offices or at the offices where the Landowners maintain such records in such a manner so as to minimize disruption in the ongoing business and affairs of the Landowners and their Affiliates. If, as a result of any such audit, it is determined that any amount is due to the Assignee as a result of the failure of the Landowners to properly deliver the Royalty Minerals, or the Mineral Royalty Amount attributable thereto, the Assignee shall assert such shortfall(s) in writing to the Assignor, and the Assignor and the Assignee will use good faith efforts to resolve such proposed adjustments.

**Section 6.4** **<u>Severability</u>**. If any provision of this Conveyance is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Conveyance shall remain in full force and effect, and this Conveyance shall be reformed, construed and enforced so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated by this Conveyance are fulfilled to the extent possible.

**Section 6.5** **<u>Counterparts</u>**. This Conveyance may be executed and delivered (including by e-mail transmission) in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original copy of this Conveyance and all of which, when taken together, shall be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement.

**Section 6.6** **<u>Amendment</u>**. This Conveyance may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified only by an instrument in writing executed by the Assignor and the Assignee and expressly identified as an amendment, restatement, supplement or modification.

**Annex 1**

**<u>Sample Calculation</u>**

1.  **<u>Definitions</u>** 

As used in this Conveyance:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;i. <u>"Attributable Final Product Shipments</u> " means, for each calendar quarter, the quantity
(measured in metric tons) of Final Products <u>produced</u> from the Subject Minerals. The Attributable Final Product Shipments shall
be calculated as the product of (i) the Final Product Shipments for such calendar quarter *multiplied by* (ii) the quotient
of (x) the Subject Minerals mined during such calendar quarter (measured in metric tons) *divided by* (y) the Ore Mined
during such calendar quarter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ii. " <u>Base Pellet Royalty Amount</u> " means, for each calendar quarter: (i) prior to the
Step Down Date, the greater of (A) the simple average of the Reference Iron Pellet Price over such calendar quarter multiplied by
1% or (B) $1.50 per metric ton; and (ii) from and after the Step Down Date, the greater of (A) the simple average of the
Reference Iron Pellet Price over such calendar quarter multiplied by 0.25% or (B) $0.375 per metric ton.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;iii. " <u>Final Product Shipments</u> " means, for each calendar quarter, the total shipments from
the Project of the Final Products, regardless of the source of the Minerals used to make such Final Products.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;iv. " <u>Mineral Royalty Amount</u> " has the meaning set forth in Paragraph 2 of this **Annex 1**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;v. " <u>Ore Mined</u> " means, for each calendar quarter, the sum of (i) the total Minerals,
measured in metric tons, that are mined at the Landowners' Nashwauk mine (the " <u>Project</u> ") during such calendar
quarter whether mined on the Burdened Leases, Lands and Mineral Tracts or otherwise and (ii) any other Minerals which are delivered
to the Project for processing at the Project during such calendar quarter, measured in metric tons.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;vi. " <u>Overage Pellet Royalty Amount</u> " means, for each calendar quarter: (i) prior to
the Step Down Date, the greater of (A) the simple average of the Reference Iron Pellet Price over such calendar quarter multiplied
by 0.25% or (B) $0.375 per metric ton; and (ii) from and after the Step Down Date, the greater of (A) the simple average
of the Reference Iron Pellet Price over such calendar quarter multiplied by 0.0625% or (B) $0.09375 per metric ton.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;vii. " <u>Reference Iron Pellet Price</u> " shall mean the "Direct Reduction Pellet 67.5% Fe
Free On Board Brazil (US dollars per dry metric ton) (IODBR00)" price index as published by S&P Platts, a 3<sup>rd</sup> party
Price Reporting Agency, and/or its successors (" <u>Platts</u> "); *provided* that if Platts discontinues or suspends the
price index named above for any reason, then the Reference Iron Ore Price shall be calculated using the following formula:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the Platts "65% Fe concentrate delivered Cost and Freight to Qingdao, China (US dollars per dry metric ton) (IOPRM00)" price index (the "<u>65% Fe Iron Ore Price</u>") which number shall be *multiplied by* 68% (reflecting the expected pellet grade from the Assignor's Project) *divided by* 65%; *plus*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the Platts "Direct Reduction 67.5% Fe Pellet Premium (US dollars per dry metric ton) (IODRP00)" price index (the "<u>DR Grade Pellet Premium</u>"); *minus*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) the Platts "Tubarao, Brazil to Qingdao, China capesize (170,000 tons) shipping price index (US *dollars* per wet metric ton)" price index (the "<u>C3 Index</u>");

*provided further*, except as specifically set forth above, to the extent that this Conveyance incorporates prices, rates or other information from a specific source or publication and that source or publication fails (whether due to market disruption events or otherwise) or ceases to publish such information, or ceases publication altogether without a successor publication, or changes the heading or format under which such information is published, or changes the source of information which it publishes under such heading or format, then such source shall be the same source as shall have been designated by the Landowners and the Assignor under the Existing Royalty Agreement as a mutually acceptable comparable and reasonable alternative source for the price per metric ton of Direct Reduction grade iron ore pellets (*i.e.,* pellets with an iron grade of >67% Fe) exported from Brazil.

By way of example, if (i) the "Direct Reduction Pellet 67.5% Fe Free On Board Brazil (US dollars per dry metric ton) (IODBR00)" is no longer published by Platts, (ii) the 65% Fe Iron Ore Price is $100 per metric ton, (iii) the DR Grade Pellet Premium is $50 per metric ton, and (iv) the C3 Index is $20 per metric ton, then the Reference Iron Pellet Price would be $134.62 per metric ton (*i.e.,* $100/t \* (68% / 65%) + $50/t – $20/t).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any pricing herein pursuant to a reference to a source or publication may vary from time to time.

2.  **<u>Calculation of Royalty Amounts</u>** .

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;i. For each calendar quarter, the value payable in respect of the Royalty Minerals (the " <u>Mineral Royalty Amount</u> ") shall be calculated as the sum of: (A) the product of the Base Pellet Royalty Amount for such calendar
quarter, multiplied by the Attributable Final Product Shipments for such calendar quarter that are attributable to the annual production
up to 8.5 million metric ton per annum (the " <u>Base Attributable Shipments</u> "); plus (B) the product of the Overage
Pellet Royalty Amount for such calendar quarter, multiplied by the Attributable Final Product Shipments for such calendar quarter that
are attributable to the annual production in excess of 8.5 million metric ton per annum (the " <u>Overage Attributable Shipments</u> ").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ii. By way of example, if (A) prior to the Step Down Date, (B) the Base Pellet Royalty Amount for
a calendar quarter is $1.50 per metric ton, (C) the Overage Pellet Royalty Amount for such calendar quarter is $0.375 per metric
ton, (D) the Base Attributable Shipments for such calendar quarter equal 2,125,000 metric tons, and (E) the Overage Attributable
Shipments for such calendar quarter equal 500,000 metric tons, then the value payable pursuant to Article III of this Conveyance
would be $3,375,000, calculated as ($1.50/metric ton × 2,125,000 metric tons) + ($0.375/metric ton × 500,000 metric tons).

WHEREAS, in connection with the Transaction, TMCR is seeking commitments from interested investors to purchase, upon closing of the Transaction, TMCR's common shares, without par value (the "<u>Shares</u>"), in a private placement for a purchase price of $13.00 per share (the "<u>Per Share Subscription Price</u>");

WHEREAS, the aggregate purchase price to be paid by the Investors for the subscribed Shares (as set forth on the signature page hereto) is referred to herein as the "<u>Subscription Amount</u>"; and

WHEREAS, substantially concurrently with the execution of this Subscription Agreement, TMCR is entering into separate subscription agreements in respect of subscription to the Shares (collectively, the "<u>Other Subscription Agreements</u>") with certain investors (the "<u>Other Investors</u>") with an aggregate purchase price of $(inclusive of the Subscription Amount) (the "<u>PIPE Investment</u>").

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties and covenants, and subject to the conditions, set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, each of the Investors and TMCR acknowledges and agrees as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. <u>Subscription</u>. The Investor hereby irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase from TMCR, and TMCR agrees to issue and sell to the Investor the number of Shares set forth on the signature page of this Subscription Agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions provided for herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. <u>Closing</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The closing of the sale of the Shares contemplated hereby (the "<u>Closing</u>") shall occur on a closing date (the "<u>Closing Date</u>") specified in the Closing Notice (as defined below) remotely via exchange of documents and signatures by electronic transmission (including pdf or any electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, e.g., www.docusign.com), and be conditioned upon the substantially concurrent consummation of the Transaction (the closing date of the Transaction, the "<u>Transaction Closing Date</u>"). Upon delivery of written notice from (or on behalf of) TMCR to the Investor (the "<u>Closing Notice</u>"), that TMCR reasonably expects all conditions to the closing of the Transaction to be satisfied or waived on an expected Transaction Closing Date that is not less than five (5) business days from the date on which the Closing Notice is delivered to the Investor, the Investor shall deliver the Subscription Amount at least three (3) business days prior to the expected Closing Date detailed in the Closing Notice by wire transfer of United States dollars in immediately available funds to the account(s) specified in the Closing Notice (the "<u>Transfer Date</u>"), to be held by Odyssey Trust Company (the "<u>Escrow Agent</u>") in escrow until the Closing Date; provided however, that an Investor may extend such Transfer Date upon prior written agreement between such Investor and TMCR. On the Closing Date, TMCR shall issue the Shares to the Investor and subsequently cause the Shares to be registered in book entry form in the name of the Investor. Promptly, and in any event not later than one (1) business day after the Closing Date, TMCR shall deliver to the Investor a DRS statement or other evidence showing Investor as the owner of the Shares on and as of the Closing Date. For purposes of this Subscription Agreement, "business day" shall mean a day, other than a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which commercial banks in New York, New York, Vancouver, Canada and Toronto, Canada are authorized or required by law to close.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the event the Closing Date does not occur within four (4) business days after the Closing Date that was specified in the Closing Notice, the Escrow Agent shall promptly arrange for the Subscription Amount to be returned to the Investor without any issuance of Shares; <u>provided</u> that, unless this Subscription Agreement has been terminated pursuant to <u>Section 10</u> hereof, such return of funds shall not terminate this Subscription Agreement or relieve the Investor of its obligation to purchase the Shares at the Closing, including in respect of a subsequent Closing Notice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. <u>Closing Conditions</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The obligation of the parties hereto to consummate the purchase and sale of the Shares pursuant to this Subscription Agreement is subject to the following conditions: (i) no applicable governmental authority shall have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any judgment, order, law, rule, injunction or regulation (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) which is then in effect and has the effect of making consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby illegal or otherwise restraining or prohibiting consummation of the issuance and sale of the Shares under this Subscription Agreement; (ii) all conditions precedent to the closing of the Transaction set forth in the Transaction Agreement shall have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions which, by their nature, are to be satisfied at the closing of the Transaction pursuant to the Transaction Agreement), and the closing of the Transaction shall be scheduled to occur substantially concurrently with the Closing; and (iii) no material amendment, modification or waiver of the Transaction Agreement shall have occurred without having received the Investor's prior written consent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) For the avoidance of doubt, the Closing is contingent upon, and shall occur concurrently with, the closing of the Transaction, and such condition shall not be waived by any party to this Subscription Agreement. Similarly, the obligations of each party under this Subscription Agreement are expressly conditioned upon the consummation of the Transaction, and in no event shall the PIPE Investment be released to TMCR, nor shall TMCR be required to issue Shares, in the absence of the Transaction closing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The obligation of the Investor to consummate the purchase and sale of the Shares pursuant to this Subscription Agreement is subject to the additional following conditions: (i) all representations and warranties of TMCR contained in this Subscription Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects when made (other than representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect (as defined below), which representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects) and shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Closing Date (unless they specifically speak as of another date in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such date) (other than representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect which representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects); (ii) TMCR shall have performed, satisfied and complied in all material respects with the covenants, agreements and conditions required by this Subscription Agreement to be performed, satisfied or complied with by it at or prior to the Closing (iii) there shall have been no Material Adverse Effect with respect to TMCR since the date hereof; and (iv) from the date hereof to the Closing Date, trading in the Shares of TMCR shall not have been suspended by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("<u>SEC</u>") on the Company's principal trading market, and, at any time prior to the Closing Date, trading in securities generally as reported by Bloomberg L.P. shall not have been suspended or limited or minimum prices shall not have been established on securities whose trades are reported by such service, or on any trading market, nor shall a banking moratorium have been declared either by the United States or New York State authorities nor shall there have occurred any material outbreak or escalation of hostilities or other national or international calamity of such magnitude in its effect on, or any material adverse change in, any financial market which, in each case, in the reasonable judgment of the Investor, makes it impracticable or inadvisable to purchase the Shares at the Closing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Prior to or at the Closing, the Investor shall deliver to TMCR a duly completed and executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or, if the Investor that is a non-U.S. person, a duly completed and executed applicable IRS Form W-8).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. <u>Further Assurances</u>. At the Closing, the parties hereto shall execute and deliver such additional documents and take such additional actions as the parties reasonably may deem to be practical and necessary to consummate the subscription as contemplated by this Subscription Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. <u>TMCR Representations and Warranties</u>. Except as set forth in the SEC Documents (as defined below) (but excluding any risk factor disclosure contained under the heading "Risk Factors," any disclosure of risks included in any "forward-looking statements" disclaimer or any other statements that are similarly predictive or forward-looking in nature, in each case, other than any specific factual information contained therein), TMCR represents and warrants to the Investor and the Placement Agents (as defined herein), as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date (except for representations and warranties that speak as of a specific date, which shall be made as of such date), that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) All of the significant subsidiaries of TMCR (as such term is defined in Rule 1-02 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the SEC) are set forth in the SEC Documents. TMCR owns, directly or indirectly, all of the capital stock or other equity interests of each significant subsidiary free and clear of any liens, and all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of each significant subsidiary are validly issued and are fully paid, non-assessable and free of preemptive and similar rights to subscribe for or purchase securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) TMCR has been duly incorporated and is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of British Columbia with corporate power to own, lease and operate its properties and conduct its business as now conducted and as described in the SEC Documents, except where such failure to be in good standing or to have such power and authority or to so qualify has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and to enter into, deliver and perform its obligations under this Subscription Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Shares are, and as of the Closing Date the Shares will be, duly authorized and, when issued and delivered to the Investor following full payment therefor in accordance with the terms of this Subscription Agreement, the Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and will not have been issued in violation of or subject to any preemptive rights, encumbrances or similar rights created under TMCR's articles of incorporation (as in effect at such time of issuance) or under the laws of British Columbia.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) This Subscription Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by TMCR and, assuming that this Subscription Agreement constitutes the valid and binding agreement of the Investor, this Subscription Agreement is enforceable against TMCR in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited or otherwise affected by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, or (ii) principles of equity, whether considered at law or equity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The Transaction Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by TMCR and, assuming that the Transaction Agreement constitutes the valid and binding agreement of the other parties thereto, the Transaction Agreement is enforceable against TMCR in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited or otherwise affected by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, or (ii) principles of equity, whether considered at law or equity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Agreement and this Subscription Agreement, including the issuance and sale of the Shares hereunder, will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of TMCR or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which TMCR or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which TMCR or any of its subsidiaries is bound or to which any of the property or assets of TMCR is subject that would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition or results of operations of TMCR and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole (a "<u>Material Adverse Effect</u>"), or materially affect the validity of the Shares or the legal authority of TMCR to comply in all material respects with its obligations under either the Transaction Agreement or this Subscription Agreement; (ii) result in any violation of the provisions of the organizational documents of TMCR or any of its subsidiaries; or (iii) result in any violation of any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over TMCR or any of its properties that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or materially affect the validity of the Shares or the legal authority of TMCR to comply in all material respects with its obligations under the Transaction Agreement or this Subscription Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Assuming the accuracy of the Investor's representations and warranties set forth in <u>Section 8</u> of this Subscription Agreement, no registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "<u>Securities Act</u>") or filing of a prospectus under applicable Canadian provincial and territorial securities Laws (the "<u>Canadian Securities Laws</u>"), is required for the offer and sale of the Shares to the Investor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) Neither TMCR nor any person acting on its behalf has offered or sold the Shares by any form of general solicitation or general advertising in violation of the Securities Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Neither TMCR nor any of its affiliates (as defined in Rule 501(b) of Regulation D) has, directly or through any agent, sold, offered for sale, solicited offers to buy or otherwise negotiated in respect of, any security (as defined in the Securities Act), that is or will be integrated with the sale of the Shares in a manner that would require registration of the Securities under the Securities Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) TMCR is not under any obligation to pay any broker's fee or commission in connection with the sale of the Shares other than to the Placement Agents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) The Other Subscription Agreements reflect the same Per Share Subscription Price and other terms with respect to the purchase of the Shares that are no more favorable, in any material respect, to such subscriber thereunder than the terms of this Subscription Agreement, other than terms particular to the regulatory requirements of such subscriber or its affiliates or related funds that are mutual funds or are otherwise subject to regulations related to the timing of funding and the issuance of the related Shares. Other than any applicable placement agent agreement with a Placement Agent that is, directly or indirectly, through one or more affiliates, participating in the PIPE Investment as an Other Investor, TMCR has not entered into any side letter or similar agreement with any Other Investor or any other investor in connection with such Other Investor's or other investor's direct or indirect investment in the Company other than the Other Subscription Agreements. The Other Subscription Agreements have not been amended in any material respect following the date of this Subscription Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) TMCR has not engaged in any "directed selling efforts" (within the meaning of Regulation S) with respect to the Shares, and TMCR and its affiliates have complied with the offering restrictions requirement of Regulation S. TMCR is a "foreign issuer" as defined in Regulation S.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) As of the date of this Subscription Agreement, the issued share capital of TMCR consists of 55,061,113 common shares without par value, and each such share is duly authorized and validly issued, and is not subject to preemptive rights or encumbrances except as disclosed in the SEC Documents. Except as disclosed in the SEC Documents, as of the date of this Subscription Agreement, and immediately prior to Closing, except as set forth above and pursuant to the Transaction Agreement and pursuant to the Transaction, and the transactions contemplated thereby, there are no outstanding (i) shares, equity interests or voting securities of TMCR, (ii) securities of TMCR convertible into or exchangeable for shares or other equity interests or voting securities of TMCR, or (iii) options, warrants or other rights (including preemptive rights) or agreements, arrangements or commitments of any character, whether or not contingent, of TMCR to acquire from any individual, entity or other person, and no obligation of TMCR to issue, any shares or other equity interests or voting securities of TMCR (collectively, the "<u>Equity Interests</u>") or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Equity Interests. Except as disclosed in the SEC Documents, as of the date of this Subscription Agreement, there are no shareholder agreements, voting trusts or other agreements or understandings to which TMCR is a party or by which it is bound relating to the voting of any securities of TMCR, other than as contemplated by the Transaction Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. Other than as disclosed in the SEC Documents, there are no securities or instruments issued by or to which TMCR is party containing anti-dilution or similar provisions that will be triggered by the issuance of the Shares hereunder, in each case, that have not been or will not be validly waived on or prior to the Closing Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) TMCR is in compliance with all applicable laws, except where such non-compliance would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. As of the date hereof, TMCR has not received any written communication from a governmental authority that alleges that TMCR is not in compliance with or is in default or violation of any applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(o) TMCR and its subsidiaries have good and marketable title in fee simple (in the case of real property) to, or have valid and marketable rights to lease or otherwise use, all items of real and personal property and assets that are material to the respective businesses of the TMCR and its subsidiaries, in each case free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, claims and defects and imperfections of title except those that (i) do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property by TMCR and its subsidiaries or (ii) could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(p) There is no (i) action, suit, claim or other proceeding, in each case by or before any governmental authority pending, or, to the knowledge of TMCR, threatened against TMCR or its subsidiaries, or (ii) judgment, decree, injunction, ruling or order of any governmental entity or arbitrator outstanding against TMCR or its subsidiaries.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(q) TMCR is not required to obtain any material consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other governmental authority, self-regulatory organization or other person in connection with the issuance of the Shares pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, other than (i) filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "<u>SEC</u>"), (ii) filings required by applicable state or federal securities laws or applicable Canadian Securities Laws, (iii) the filings required in accordance with <u>Section 14</u> of this Subscription Agreement; (iv) those required by the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("<u>Nasdaq</u>"), (v) those required to consummate the Transaction as provided under the Transaction Agreement and (vi) those the failure of which to obtain would not be reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(r) As of the date hereof, the issued and outstanding common shares of TMCR are registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "<u>Exchange Act</u>"), and are listed for trading on the Nasdaq under the symbol "TMCR". There is no suit, action, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the knowledge of TMCR, threatened against TMCR by Nasdaq or the SEC with respect to any intention by such entity to prohibit or terminate the listing of TMCR's common shares or to deregister TMCR's common shares under the Exchange Act. TMCR has taken no action that is designed to terminate the registration of its common shares under the Exchange Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(s) A copy of each form, report, statement, schedule, prospectus, proxy, registration statement and other document, if any, filed by TMCR on or prior to the Closing Date (the "<u>SEC Documents</u>") is available to the undersigned via the SEC's EDGAR system. As of their respective dates, all reports required to be filed by TMCR with the SEC complied in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and/or the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder. None of the SEC Documents contained, when filed or, if amended, as of the date of such amendment with respect to those disclosures that are amended, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; The financial statements of TMCR included in the SEC Documents comply in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of TMCR as of and for the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended, subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal, year-end audit adjustments. TMCR has timely filed each report, statement, schedule, prospectus, and registration statement that TMCR was required to file with the SEC since its inception. There are no material outstanding or unresolved comments in comment letters from the staff of the Division of Corporation Finance of the SEC with respect to any of the SEC Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(t) Neither TMCR nor any of its subsidiaries is in default or violation (and no event has occurred which, with notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute a default or violation) of any term, condition or provision of (i) the organizational documents of TMCR or its subsidiaries, (ii) any loan or credit agreement, note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease or other agreement, permit, franchise or license to which TMCR or any of its subsidiaries is now a party or by which TMCR's or any of its subsidiary's properties or assets are bound or (iii) any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over TMCR, its subsidiaries or any of their respective properties, except, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), for defaults or violations that have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(u) Except as set forth in the Transaction Agreement and pursuant with the Transaction or as disclosed in the SEC Documents, TMCR is presently not under any obligation, and has not granted any rights, to register under the Securities Act any of TMCR's presently outstanding securities or any of its securities that may hereafter be issued, other than such rights and obligations that have expired or been satisfied or waived.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) TMCR is not, and immediately after receipt of payment for the Shares will not be, an "investment company" within the meaning of the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(w) Neither TMCR nor any of its subsidiaries, nor any director or officer of TMCR or any of its subsidiaries nor, to the knowledge of TMCR, any employee, agent, controlled affiliate or other person acting on behalf of TMCR or any of its subsidiaries has (i) used any corporate funds for any unlawful contribution, gift, entertainment or other unlawful expense relating to political activity; (ii) made or taken an act in furtherance of an offer, promise or authorization of any direct or indirect unlawful payment or benefit to any foreign or domestic government official or employee, including of any government-owned or controlled entity or of a public international organization, or any person acting in an official capacity for or on behalf of any of the foregoing, or any political party or party official or candidate for political office; (iii) violated or is in violation of any provision of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, the Corruption of Foreign Public Officials Act (Canada), Sections 119 to 121, 123 to 125 and 426 of the Criminal Code (Canada), or any applicable law or regulation implementing the OECD Convention on Combating Bribery of Foreign Public Officials in International Business Transactions, or committed an offence under any other applicable anti-bribery or anti-corruption law, including under the laws of Canada; or (iv) made, offered, agreed, requested or taken an act in furtherance of any unlawful bribe or other unlawful benefit, including, without limitation, any rebate, payoff, influence payment, kickback or other unlawful or improper payment or benefit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(o) If the Investor is or is acting on behalf of (i) an employee benefit plan that is subject to Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("<u>ERISA</u>"), (ii) a plan, an individual retirement account or other arrangement that is subject to Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "<u>Code</u>"), (iii) an entity whose underlying assets are considered to include "plan assets" of any such plan, account or arrangement described in clauses (i) and (ii) (each, an "<u>ERISA Plan</u>"), or (iv) an employee benefit plan that is a governmental plan (as defined in Section 3(32) of ERISA), a church plan (as defined in Section 3(33) of ERISA), a non-U.S. plan (as described in Section 4(b)(4) of ERISA) or other plan that is not subject to the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) but may be subject to provisions under any other federal, state, local, non-U.S. or other laws or regulations that are similar to such provisions of ERISA or the Code (collectively, "<u>Similar Laws</u>," and together with ERISA Plans, "<u>Plans</u>"), the Investor represents and warrants that (A) it has not relied on TMCR or any of their respective affiliates for investment advice or as the Plan's fiduciary, with respect to its decision to acquire and hold the Shares, and it is not relying, and shall not rely on, any party to the Transaction to be the Plan's fiduciary with respect to any decision in connection with the Investor's investment in the Shares; and (B) its purchase of the Shares will not constitute a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, or any applicable Similar Law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(q) The Investor acknowledges that it has been advised by the Placement Agents (as defined below) that no disclosure or offering document has been prepared by Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated, A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners, William Blair & Company, L.L.C. or B. Riley Securities, Inc. (the "<u>Placement Agents</u>") or any of their affiliates in connection with the offer and sale of the Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(r) The Investor acknowledges that it has been advised by the Placement Agents that none of the Placement Agents, nor any of their affiliates, nor any control persons, officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives of any of the foregoing has made any independent investigation with respect to TMCR or its subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, or the Shares or the accuracy, completeness or adequacy of any information supplied to the Investor by TMCR.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(s) In connection with the issue and purchase of the Shares, none of the Placement Agents, nor any of their affiliates, has acted as the Investor's financial advisor or fiduciary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(t) When required to deliver payment pursuant to <u>Section 2</u> above, the Investor will have sufficient funds to pay the Subscription Amount and consummate the purchase and sale of the Shares pursuant to this Subscription Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. <u>Registration Rights</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) TMCR agrees that, within five (5) business days following the Closing Date (such deadline, the "<u>Filing Deadline</u>"), TMCR will submit to or file with the SEC a registration statement for a shelf registration on Form F-1 or Form F-3 (if TMCR is then eligible to use a Form F-3 shelf registration) (the "<u>Registration Statement</u>"), in each case, covering the resale of the Shares acquired by the Investor pursuant to this Subscription Agreement (the "<u>Registrable Shares</u>") and TMCR shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the earlier of (i) the 40th calendar day (or 70th calendar day if the SEC notifies TMCR that it will "review" the Registration Statement) following the Closing and (ii) the 5th business day after the date TMCR is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the SEC that the Registration Statement will not be "reviewed" or will not be subject to further review (such earlier date, the "<u>Effectiveness Deadline</u>"); <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that if such Effectiveness Deadline falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or other day that the SEC is closed for business, the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to the next business day on which the SEC is open for business; and <u>provided further</u>*,* that TMCR's obligations to include the Registrable Shares in the Registration Statement are contingent upon Investor furnishing in writing to TMCR such information regarding Investor or its permitted assigns, the securities of TMCR held by Investor and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Shares (which shall be limited to non-underwritten public offerings) as shall be reasonably requested by TMCR to effect the registration of the Registrable Shares, and Investor shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as TMCR may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations, including providing that TMCR shall be entitled to postpone and suspend the effectiveness or use of the Registration Statement, if applicable, as permitted hereunder; <u>provided</u> that Investor shall not in connection with the foregoing be required to execute any lock-up or similar agreement or otherwise be subject to any contractual restriction on the ability to transfer the Registrable Shares. In no event shall Investor be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement unless specifically requested by the SEC in which case the Investor will have an opportunity to withdraw from the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the SEC prevents TMCR from including any or all of the Shares proposed to be registered under the Registration Statement due to limitations on the use of Rule 415 of the Securities Act for the resale of the Registrable Shares or otherwise, such Registration Statement shall register the resale of a number of Shares which is equal to the maximum number of Shares as is permitted by the SEC. In such event, the number of Shares to be registered for each selling shareholder named in the Registration Statement shall be reduced pro rata among all such selling shareholders, and TMCR will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC, as promptly as allowed by the SEC, one or more registration statements to register the resale of those Registrable Shares that were not registered on the initial Registration Statement, as so amended. For as long as the Investor holds Shares, TMCR will use commercially reasonable efforts to file all reports for so long as the condition in Rule 144(c)(1) is required to be satisfied, and provide all customary and reasonable cooperation, necessary to enable the undersigned to resell the Shares pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act (in each case, when Rule 144 of the Securities Act becomes available to the Investor). Any failure by TMCR to file the Registration Statement by the Filing Deadline or to effect such Registration Statement by the Effectiveness Deadline shall not otherwise relieve TMCR of its obligations to file or effect the Registration Statement as set forth above in this <u>Section 9</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) TMCR covenants and agrees that, for so long as the Investor (or any permitted assignee) holds any Registrable Shares, TMCR shall (i) maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement (or any successor registration statement) covering the resale of the Registrable Shares, (ii) not voluntarily take any action, or fail to take any action required to be taken by it, that would result in the Registration Statement ceasing to be effective or the Investor being unable to utilise the Registration Statement for the resale of the Registrable Shares (other than during a Suspension Event in accordance with Section 9(e)), (iii) if the Registration Statement ceases to be effective for any reason (other than during a Suspension Event), promptly use its best efforts to cause the Registration Statement to again become effective (including by filing a new registration statement, successor registration statement or post-effective amendment as necessary) and to notify the Investor of the status thereof, and (iv) make all filings with the SEC and take all other actions as may be necessary or appropriate to maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and ensure the availability thereof for the resale of the Registrable Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Investor's name and such other information regarding the Investor as is required by applicable law, SEC rules and regulations or SEC staff guidance shall be included as a selling securityholder in the Registration Statement and any prospectus or prospectus supplement forming part thereof. The Investor consents to the disclosure of such information in the Registration Statement and any related filings with the SEC or other governmental authority.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) In the case of the registration effected by TMCR pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, TMCR shall, upon reasonable request, inform the Investor as to the status of such registration. At its expense TMCR shall:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) except for such times as TMCR is permitted hereunder to suspend the use of the prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep such registration, and any qualification, exemption or compliance under state securities laws which TMCR determines to obtain, continuously effective with respect to Investor, and to keep the applicable Registration Statement or any subsequent shelf registration statement free of any material misstatements or omissions, until the earlier of the following: (A) Investor ceases to hold any Registrable Shares and (B) the date all Registrable Shares held by Investor may be sold without restriction under Canadian Securities Laws and Rule 144, including without limitation, any volume and manner of sale restrictions which may be applicable to affiliates under Rule 144 and without the requirement for TMCR to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1). The Investor agrees to disclose its ownership to TMCR upon request to assist it in making the determination described above. The period of time during which TMCR is required hereunder to keep a Registration Statement effective is referred to herein as the "<u>Registration Period</u>";

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) during the Registration Period, advise Investor, as expeditiously as possible (and within no later than three (3) business days):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) when a Registration Statement or any amendment thereto has been filed with the SEC;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) of the receipt by TMCR of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Registrable Shares included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) subject to the provisions in this Subscription Agreement, of the occurrence of any event that requires the making of any changes in any Registration Statement or prospectus so that, as of such date, the statements therein are not misleading and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, TMCR shall not, when so advising Investor of such events, provide Investor with any material, non-public information regarding TMCR other than to the extent that providing notice to Investor of the occurrence of the events listed in (1) through (4) above may constitute material, non-public information regarding TMCR;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) during the Registration Period, use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) during the Registration Period, upon the occurrence of any event contemplated in <u>Section 9(b)(ii)(4)</u> above, except for such times as TMCR is permitted hereunder to suspend, and has suspended, the use of a prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, TMCR shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as soon as reasonably practicable prepare a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Registrable Shares included therein, such prospectus will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) during the Registration Period, use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Registrable Shares to be listed on each securities exchange or market, if any, on which the common shares issued hereby have been listed;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) during the Registration Period, use its commercially reasonable efforts to allow the Investor to review disclosure regarding the Investor in the Registration Statement; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) during the Registration Period, otherwise, in good faith, cooperate reasonably with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by the Investor, consistent with the terms of this Subscription Agreement, in connection with the registration of the Registrable Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Subscription Agreement, TMCR shall be entitled to delay the filing or effectiveness of, or suspend the use of, the Registration Statement if it determines that in order for the Registration Statement not to contain a material misstatement or omission, (i) an amendment thereto would be needed to include information that would at that time not otherwise be required in a current, quarterly, or annual report under the Exchange Act, or (ii) the negotiation or consummation of a transaction by TMCR or its subsidiaries is pending or an event has occurred, which negotiation, consummation or event TMCR's board of directors reasonably believes, upon the advice of outside legal counsel, would require additional disclosure by TMCR in the Registration Statement of material information that TMCR has a bona fide business purpose for keeping confidential and the non-disclosure of which in the Registration Statement would be expected, in the reasonable determination of TMCR's board of directors, upon the advice of outside legal counsel, to cause the Registration Statement to fail to comply with applicable disclosure requirements, (each such circumstance, a "<u>Suspension Event</u>"); <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that TMCR may not delay or suspend the Registration Statement on more than two occasions or for more than thirty (30) consecutive calendar days, or more than sixety (60) total calendar days in each case during any twelve-month period. Upon receipt of any written notice from TMCR of the happening of any Suspension Event during the period that the Registration Statement is effective or if as a result of a Suspension Event the Registration Statement or related prospectus contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in light of the circumstances under which they were made, in the case of the prospectus) not misleading, Investor agrees that (i) it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the Registrable Shares under the Registration Statement (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, sales conducted pursuant to Rule 144) until Investor receives copies of a supplemental or amended prospectus (which TMCR agrees to promptly prepare) that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and receives notice that any post-effective amendment has become effective or unless otherwise notified by TMCR that it may resume such offers and sales, and (ii) it will maintain the confidentiality of any information included in such written notice delivered by TMCR unless otherwise required by law or subpoena. If so directed by TMCR, Investor will deliver to TMCR or, in Investor's sole discretion destroy, all copies of the prospectus covering the Registrable Shares in Investor's possession; <u>provided</u>*, however,* that this obligation to deliver or destroy all copies of the prospectus covering the Registrable Shares shall not apply (A) to the extent Investor is required to retain a copy of such prospectus (1) to comply with applicable legal, regulatory, self-regulatory or professional requirements or (2) in accordance with a bona fide pre-existing document retention policy or (B) to copies stored electronically on archival servers as a result of automatic data back-up. The Investor may deliver written notice (an "Opt-Out Notice") to TMCR requesting that Investor not receive notices from TMCR otherwise required by this <u>Section 9(c)</u>; provided, however, that Investor may later revoke any such Opt-Out Notice in writing. Following receipt of an Opt-Out Notice from Investor (unless subsequently revoked), (i) TMCR shall not deliver any such notices to Investor and Investor shall no longer be entitled to the rights associated with any such notice and (ii) each time prior to Investor's intended use of an effective Registration Statement, Investor will notify TMCR in writing at least two (2) business days in advance of such intended use, and if a notice of a Suspension Event was previously delivered (or would have been delivered but for the provisions of this <u>Section 9(c)</u>) and the related suspension period remains in effect, TMCR will so notify Investor, within one (1) business day of Investor's notification to TMCR, by delivering to Investor a copy of such previous notice of Suspension Event, and thereafter will provide Investor with the related notice of the conclusion of such Suspension Event promptly following its availability.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Indemnification.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) TMCR agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, the Investor (to the extent a seller under the Registration Statement), its directors, officers, partners, managers, members, stockholders, advisers and each person who controls Investor (within the meaning of the Securities Act), to the extent permitted by law, against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable and documented out of pocket expenses (including reasonable and documented attorneys' fees of one law firm (and one firm of local counsel)) caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus included in any Registration Statement ("<u>Prospectus</u>") or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing to TMCR by or on behalf of such Investor expressly for use therein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) In connection with any Registration Statement in which an Investor is participating, such Investor shall furnish (or cause to be furnished) to TMCR in writing such information and affidavits as TMCR reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify TMCR, its directors and officers and each person or entity who controls TMCR (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable outside attorneys' fees) resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained or incorporated by reference in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained (or not contained in, in the case of an omission) in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by on behalf of such Investor expressly for use therein; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the liability of such Investor shall be several and not joint with any Other Investor or other selling shareholder named in the Registration Statement and shall be in proportion to and limited to the net proceeds received by such Investor from the sale of Registrable Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Any person or entity entitled to indemnification herein shall (A) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (<u>provided</u> that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person's or entity's right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (B) unless in such indemnified party's reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which settlement includes a statement or admission of fault and culpability on the part of such indemnified party or which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) The indemnification provided for under this Subscription Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling person or entity of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) If the indemnification provided under this <u>Section 9(d)</u> from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the liability of the Investor shall be limited to the net proceeds received by such Investor from the sale of Registrable Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by (or not made by, in the case of an omission), or relates to information supplied by (or not supplied by, in the case of an omission), such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party's and indemnified party's relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in <u>Sections 9(d)(i)</u>, <u>(ii)</u> and <u>(iii)</u> above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this <u>Section 9 (d)(v)</u> from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Subject to receipt from the Investor by TMCR and its transfer agent (the "<u>Transfer Agent</u>") of customary representations (including those set out in Schedule C) and other documentation reasonably acceptable to TMCR and the Transfer Agent in connection therewith, and, if required by the Transfer Agent, an opinion of TMCR's counsel, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Transfer Agent, to the effect that the removal of such restrictive legends in such circumstances may be effected under the Securities Act and applicable Canadian Securities Laws, the Investor may request that TMCR remove any legend from the book entry position evidencing the Shares within two (2) business days of such request and receipt of such representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to TMCR and the Transfer Agent, following the earliest of such time as the Shares (A) are subject to and are sold or transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement to purchasers outside of Canada or (B) have been or are about to be sold pursuant to Rule 144, provided that in the case of clauses (A) and (B) the resale of such Shares is not subject to the restrictions of Section 2.5 of NI 45-102 or any other applicable Canadian Securities Laws. If restrictive legends are no longer required for the Shares pursuant to the foregoing, TMCR shall, in accordance with the provisions of this section and reasonably promptly following any request therefor from the Investor accompanied by such customary and reasonably acceptable representations and other documentation referred to above establishing that restrictive legends are no longer required, deliver to the Transfer Agent irrevocable instructions that the Transfer Agent shall make a new, unlegended entry for the Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) TMCR may request from the Investor such additional information as TMCR may deem necessary to evaluate the eligibility of the Investor to acquire the Shares and in connection with the inclusion of the Shares in the Registration Statement, and the Investor shall provide such information as may reasonably be requested, to the extent readily available and to the extent consistent with its internal policies and procedures; provided that TMCR agrees to keep any such information confidential, other than as (i) necessary to include in any Registration Statement, or (ii) may be required by applicable law, rule, regulation or in connection with any legal proceeding or regulatory request. The Investor acknowledges that TMCR may file a form of this Subscription Agreement with the SEC as an exhibit to a current or periodic report or a registration statement of TMCR.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Investor acknowledges that TMCR will rely on the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties of the Investor contained in <u>Section 8</u> of this Subscription Agreement. Prior to the Closing, the Investor agrees to promptly notify TMCR if any of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties of the Investor set forth herein (i) are no longer accurate and (ii) are not expected to be accurate as of immediately prior to the Closing. The Investor and TMCR each acknowledges and agrees that the Placement Agents will rely on the representations and warranties of (i) the Investor contained in <u>Section 8</u> of this Subscription Agreement and (ii) TMCR contained in <u>Section 5</u> of this Subscription Agreement, and that the Placement Agents are intended third-party beneficiaries of the representations and warranties of the Investor and of TMCR, respectively.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) TMCR, the Placement Agents and the Investor are each irrevocably authorized to produce this Subscription Agreement or a copy hereof to any interested party in any administrative or legal proceeding or official inquiry with respect to the matters covered hereby.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) All of the representations and warranties contained in this Subscription Agreement shall survive the Closing. All of the covenants and agreements made by each party hereto in this Subscription Agreement shall survive the Closing until the applicable statute of limitations, or in accordance with their respective terms.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) This Subscription Agreement may not be modified, waived or terminated (other than pursuant to the terms of <u>Section 10</u> above) except by an instrument in writing, signed by each of the parties hereto. No failure or delay of either party in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, or any course of conduct, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the parties and third party beneficiaries hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) This Subscription Agreement (including the schedules hereto) constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements, understandings, representations and warranties, both written and oral, among the parties, with respect to the subject matter hereof. Except as set forth in <u>Section 9(d)</u>, <u>Section 12(c), Section 12(d) and</u> Section 13 with respect to the persons referenced therein, and except with respect to the Placement Agents who shall be express third-party beneficiaries of this Subscription Agreement entitled to enforce the provisions hereof that are for their benefit (including, without limitation, the representations, warranties, covenants and exculpation provisions made in favour of or for the benefit of the Placement Agents), this Subscription Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than the parties hereto, and their respective successor and assigns.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) Except as otherwise provided herein, this Subscription Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives, and permitted assigns, and the agreements, representations, warranties, covenants and acknowledgments contained herein shall be deemed to be made by, and be binding upon, such heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;16. For the avoidance of doubt, all obligations of the Investor hereunder are separate and several from the obligations of any Other Investor. The decision of Investor to purchase the Shares pursuant to this Subscription Agreement has been made by Investor independently of any Other Investor or any other investor and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of TMCR, or any of its subsidiaries which may have been made or given by any Other Investor or investor or by any agent or employee of any Other Investor or investor, and neither Investor nor any of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any Other Investor or investor (or any other person) relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or opinions. Nothing contained herein or in any Other Subscription Agreement, and no action taken by Investor or Other Investors pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Investor and Other Investor or other investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that Investor and Other Investors or other investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement and the Other Subscription Agreements. The Investor acknowledges that no Other Investor has acted as agent for Investor in connection with making its investment hereunder and no Other Investor will be acting as agent of Investor in connection with monitoring its investment in the Shares or enforcing its rights under this Subscription Agreement. The Investor shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Subscription Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any Other Investor or investor to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

| &nbsp;&nbsp;_______ | &nbsp;&nbsp;(f.1) in Ontario, the Government of Canada, the government of a province or territory of Canada, or any Crown corporation, agency or wholly owned entity of the Government of Canada or of the government of a province or territory of Canada, |

| &nbsp;&nbsp;_______ | &nbsp;&nbsp; (j) an individual who, either alone or with a spouse, beneficially owns financial assets having an aggregate realizable value that before taxes, but net of any related liabilities, exceeds $1,000,000,<br>[Note: Financial assets include cash and securities, but do not include a personal residence – see the definition of "financial assets" below. Financial assets are generally liquid or relatively easy to liquidate. You must subtract any liabilities related to your financial assets to calculate your net financial assets—see the definition of "related liabilities" below. In the case where financial assets are held in a trust or in another type of investment vehicle for the benefit of an individual there may be questions as to whether the individual beneficially owns the financial assets. The following factors are indicative of beneficial ownership of financial assets: (i) physical or constructive possession of evidence of ownership of the financial asset; (ii) entitlement to receipt of any income generated by the financial asset; (iii) risk of loss of the value of the financial asset; and (iv) the ability to dispose of the financial asset or otherwise deal with it as you see fit. For example, securities held in a self-directed RRSP, for your sole benefit, are beneficially owned by you. In general, financial assets in a spousal RRSP would also be included for the purposes of the financial assets test in this paragraph (j); however, financial assets held in a group RRSP under which you do not have the ability to acquire the financial assets and deal with them directly are not considered to be beneficially owned by you. If you meet the higher financial asset threshold set out in paragraph (j.1) as an individual exclusive of your spouse, then initial paragraph (j.1) instead of this paragraph (j). **If this is your applicable category, you must also complete <u>Form 45-106F9 attached as Appendix I to this Schedule B</u>**<br>|
