The Gross Value shall be determined by multiplying Silver Production during the month by the Monthly Average Silver Price.

1.2.3

All Other Minerals.

(a)

If Payor sells any concentrates, dore or ore of Minerals other than gold or silver, then Gross Value shall be the value of such Minerals determined by utilizing:  (1) the mine weights and assays for such Minerals; (2) a reasonable recovery rate for the Minerals (which shall be adjusted annually to reflect the actual recovery rate of recovered or refined metal or  product from such Minerals); and (3) the monthly average price for the Minerals or product of the Minerals for the month in which the concentrates, dore or ore was sold.  The monthly average price shall be determined by reference to the market for such Minerals or product which is recognized in the mining industry as authoritative and reflective of the market for such Minerals or product.

(b)

If Payor produces refined or processed metals from Minerals other than refined gold or refined silver, and if Section 1.2.3(a) above is not applicable, then Gross Value shall be equal to the amount of the proceeds received by Payor during the month from the sale of such refined or processed metals. Payor shall have the right to sell such refined or processed metals to an affiliated party, provided that such sales shall be considered, solely for purposes of determining Gross Value, to have been sold at prices and on terms no less favorable than those that would be obtained from an unaffiliated third party in similar quantities and under similar circumstances.

1.3

"Minerals" means gold, silver, platinum, antimony, mercury, copper, lead, zinc, and all other mineral elements and mineral compounds, and geothermal resources, which are contemplated to exist on the Property or which are after the Effective Date discovered on the Property and which can be extracted, mined or processed by any method presently known or developed or invented after the Effective Date.

1.4

"Monthly Average Gold Price" means the average London Bullion Market Association Afternoon Gold Fix, calculated by dividing the sum of all such prices reported for the month by the number of days for which such prices were reported during that month.  If the London Bullion Market Association Afternoon Gold Fix ceases to be published, all such references shall be replaced with references to prices of gold for immediate sale in another established marked selected by Payor, as such prices are published in Metals Week magazine, and if Metals Week magazine no longer publishes such prices, the prices of such other association or entity generally accepted and recognized in the mining industry.

1.5

"Monthly Average Silver Price" means the average New York Silver Price as published daily by Handy & Harmon, calculated by dividing the sum of all such prices reported for the month by the number of days in such month for which such prices were reported.  If the Handy & Harmon quotations cease to be published, all such references shall be replaced with references to prices of silver for immediate sale in another established market selected by Payor as published in Metals Week magazine, and if Metals Week magazine no longer publishes such prices, the prices of such other association or entity generally accepted and recognized in the mining industry.

1.6

"Net Smelter Returns" means the Gross Value of all Minerals, less the following costs, charges and expenses paid or incurred by Payor with respect to the refining and smelting of such Minerals: 

1.6.1

Charges for smelting and refining (including sampling, assaying and penalty charges), but not any charges or costs of agglomeration, beneficiation, crushing, extraction, milling, mining or other processing; and 

1.6.2

Actual costs of transportation (including freight, insurance, security, transaction taxes, handling, port, demurrage, delay and forwarding expenses incurred by reason of or in the course of such transportation) of concentrates or dore metal from the Property to the smelter or refinery, but not any charges or costs of transportation of Minerals or ores from any mine on the Property to an autoclave, concentrator, crusher, heap or other leach process, mill or plant which is not a smelter or refinery.

1.7

"Property" means the real property described in the instrument to which these Net Smelter Returns provisions are attached and made a part.

1.8

"Silver Production" means the quantity of refined silver outturned to Payor's account by an independent third-party refinery for silver produced from the Property during the month on either a provisional or final settlement basis.

2.

Payment Procedures.

2.1

Accrual of Obligation.  Payor's obligation to pay the royalty shall accrue and become due and payable upon the sale or shipment from the Property of unrefined metals, dore metal, concentrates, ores or other Minerals or Minerals products or, if refined metals are produced, upon the outturn of refined metals meeting the requirements of the specified published price to Payor's account.

2.2

Futures or Forward Sales, Etc..  Except as provided in Sections 1.2.1(a), 1.2.2(a) and 1.2.3 (a) (regarding sales of unprocessed gold and silver and sales of Minerals other than gold and silver), Gross Value shall be determined irrespective of any actual arrangements for the sale or other disposition of Minerals by Payor, specifically including but not limited to forward sales, futures trading or commodities options trading, and any other price hedging, price protection, and speculative arrangements that may involve the possible delivery of gold, silver or other metals produced from Minerals.

2.3

Monthly Calculations and Payments.  Net Smelter Returns royalties shall be determined on a monthly basis.  Payor shall pay Payor each monthly royalty payment on or before the last business day of the month immediately following the month in which the royalty payment obligation accrued.  Payor acknowledges that late payment by Payor to Recipient  of royalty payments will cause Recipient to incur costs, the exact amount of which will be difficult to ascertain.  Accordingly, if any amount due and payable by Payor is not received by Recipient within ten (10) days after such amount is due, then Payor shall pay to Recipient a late charge equal to ten percent (10%) of such overdue amount.  Recipient’s acceptance of such late charge shall not constitute a waiver of Payor’ default with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Recipient from exercising any of Recipient’s other rights and remedies.  If any amount payable by Payor remains delinquent for a period in excess of thirty (30) days, Payor shall pay to Recipient, in addition to the late payment, interest from and after the due date at the statutory interest rate.

2.4

Statements.  At the time of payment of the royalty, Payor shall accompany such payment with a statement which shows in detail the quantities and grades of refined gold, silver or other metals or dore, concentrates or ores produced and sold or deemed sold by Payor in the preceding month; the Monthly Average Gold Price and Monthly Average Silver Price, as applicable; costs and other deductions, and other pertinent information in detail to explain the calculation of the payment with respect to such month.  Payment shall be made to the address provided in the agreement or instrument to which this Exhibit is attached for purposes of notices or by wire transfer to an account which Recipient designates.

2.5

Inventories and Stockpiles.  Payor shall include in all monthly statements a description of the quantity and quality of any gold or silver dore that has been retained as inventory for more than ninety (90) days.  Recipient shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of the statement to either:  (a) elect that the dore be deemed sold, with Gross Value to be determined as provided in Sections 1.2.1 (b), with respect to gold, and 1.2.2(b), with respect to silver, as of such thirtieth (30th) day utilizing the mine weights and assays for such dore and utilizing a reasonable recovery rate for refined metal and reasonable deemed charges for all deductions which Payor is authorized to take, or (b) elect to wait until such time as the royalty payment otherwise would become payable pursuant to Sections 1.2.1(b) and 1.2.2(b).  The Payor’s failure to respond within such time shall be deemed to be an election to use the methods described in Sections 1.2.1(b) and 1.2.2(b).

2.6

Audit.  Upon reasonable notice and at a reasonable time, the Recipient shall have the right to audit and examine the Payor’s accounts and records relating to the calculation of the Net Smelter Returns royalty payments.  If such audit determines that there has been a deficiency or an excess in the payment made to Recipient, such deficiency or excess shall be resolved by adjusting the next monthly royalty payment due Recipient.  Recipient shall pay all costs of such audit unless a deficiency of three percent (3%) or more of the royalty payment due for the calendar month in question is determined to exist.  All books and records used by Payor to calculate the royalty payments shall be kept in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to the mining industry.

3.

Sampling and Commingling.  Payor shall have the right to commingle Minerals and ores from the Property and materials from other properties, provided, that Payor first informs Recipient, in writing, of Payor’s intention to commingle and delivers to Recipient a detailed written description of Payor’s commingling plan.  Recipient shall have ninety (90) days during which to review and comment on Payor’s proposed commingling plan.  In any and all events, all Minerals and ores shall be measured and sampled by Payor in accordance with sound mining and metallurgical practices for metal and mineral content before commingling of any such Minerals or ores with materials from any other property.  Representative samples of materials from the Property intended to be commingled shall be retained by Payor, and assays of these samples shall be made before commingling to determine the metal content of each ore.  Accurate records shall be kept by Recipient showing measurements, assays of metal content and gross metal content of the materials from the Property are commingled.
