Dear Mr. Aird:

The purpose of this letter is to confirm the engagement of Illyria Inc. ("Illyria") by American Lithium Minerals Inc. (the "Company") to assist the Company in indentifying parties interested in purchasing either (a) 60% of the Company's interest in the Borate Hills project in Nevada (an"Asset Purchase"), or (b) the Company's issued and outstanding shares (a "Share Purchase"). For the purposes hereof, the term "Transaction" means either an Asset Purchase or a Share Purchase and the term "Company" includes subsidiaries of the Company and any entity that the Company may form or invest in to consummate a Transaction, and shall also include any successor to or assignee of all or a portion of the assets and/or businesses of the Company. This letter agreement (the"Agreement") will outline the terms of our engagement to provide certain services that may be requested.

		
	1.	SERVICES

Illyria will assist the Company in identifying prospective parties to the Transaction (the "Prospects") and approaching and introducing such Prospects to the Company.

		
	2.	COMPENSATION

 

	 	(a)	

   At the close of a Transaction and conditional thereon, the Company will pay to Illyria a cash agency fee (the"Agency Fee") equal to 5% of the Transaction Consideration (as defined below) if any of the following Prospects completes a Transaction pursuant to the terms set out below:

	 		

   

		 	1.	

   If Trivest Pty. Ltd. or any related or affiliated party completes a Transaction with the Company for an aggregate purchase price equal to or exceeding $9,500,000 on or before March 31, 2013; or

		 	2.	

   If any other Prospect enters into an agreement to conduct a Transaction with the Company for an aggregate purchase price equal to or exceeding $9,500,000 before September 30, 2012 and completes the Transaction on or before March 31, 2013.

		 	

   

		(b)	

   In addition to the Agency Fee, the Company shall pay all applicable sales, use or other taxes exigible in connection with payment for the services provided hereunder. In addition, the Company shall pay to or reimburse Illyria for all expenses reasonably and properly incurred in connection with the performance of the services provided hereunder provided such expense has been approved, in writing, in advance by the Company before it is incurred and the Company receives appropriate documentation evidencing the expense.

	 		

   

		(c)	

For purposes of this Agreement, "Transaction Consideration" shall mean the fair market value of all cash, securities, and other property or other assets paid, payable, or received, including funded debt and other long-term liabilities and obligations reflected on the Company's most recent balance sheet (excluding normal working capital liabilities) which are assumed in connection with the Transaction, including. without limitation (a) any distributions made to the Company's shareholders in anticipation

of the closing; (b) any payments in connection with any separate but related transaction or transactions affecting another business entity or any of its assets or securities (e.g., purchase or lease of any real estate or other assets, but in the case of a lease, Transaction Consideration shall include only sums in excess of current rentals paid to unrelated or unaffiliated third parties); and (c) any indebtedness for monies borrowed, including guarantees, which are assumed. For purposes of determining Transaction Consideration, the value of any securities (whether debt or equity) shall be equal to the average closing stock price for the ten trading days prior to closing of the Transaction; provided, however, that the value of securities that are not freely tradable or have no established public market shall be the fair market value as reasonably agreed upon by the parties. If any part of the Transaction Consideration shall be contingent upon future earnings, then Illyria shall be entitled to a cash Agency Fee on such additional Transaction Consideration if and when such additional Transaction Consideration is received. The Agency Fee for such Transaction Consideration paid or received after closing shall be payable when such Transaction Consideration is received.

		
	3.	TERM OF AGREEMENT

This Agreement shall be terminated on the earlier of (a) closing of a Transaction, (b) September 30, 2012, or (c) by either the Company or Illyria at any time, with or without cause, upon 60 days written notice to that effect to the other party.
