 CHANGE IN CONTROL AND CHANGE IN OWNERSHIP 

If there occurs a Change in Control or Change in Ownership and you would have been eligible for treatment afforded by Paragraph 21 of the Plan
but for the fact that you have received a Performance-Based Award rather than a Stock Option or Restricted Stock, Paragraph 21 of the Plan shall apply to you in the manner described in this section. 

You shall receive Performance Shares free of all restrictions as soon as practicable following the Acceleration Date but, in all events, on
or before the 15th day of the third month of the calendar year following the calendar year in which occurs the Acceleration Date. The number of Performance Shares you shall receive shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of this Award
Notice but shall be determined as if the Acceleration Date were the last day of the Performance Period. 
 RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER 

You shall not be, nor have any of the rights or privileges of, a stockholder of the Company until the Performance Shares have been awarded
hereunder and a stock certificate is issued to you related thereto. Thus, you shall be not entitled to vote any shares subject to this award, or receive any cash dividends, until the Performance Shares have been awarded hereunder and a stock
certificate issued to you related thereto. 
 ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN; AUTHORITY OF THE COMMITTEE 

The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee has the authority, in its sole discretion, to interpret the Plan and all awards
thereunder, to establish, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan, and to make any determination it believes necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan. The scope of the Committee’s authority is more fully
described in the Plan. All decisions of the Committee in the administration of the Plan are conclusive and binding on you. 
 FORFEITURE 

If (1) in the opinion of the Committee, you, without the written consent of the Company, engage directly or indirectly in any manner or
capacity as principal, agent, partner, officer, director, employee, owner, promoter or otherwise, in any business or activity competitive with the business conducted by the Company or any Subsidiary, or (2) you perform any act or engage in any
activity which in the opinion of the Committee is inimical to the best interests of the Company, your Performance-Based Award and rights hereunder shall be deemed forfeited and canceled. 

  
 - 4 - 

 MISCELLANEOUS 

You have no right to assign, sell, transfer, pledge or encumber this Performance-Based Award and your rights hereunder, except by will, or by
the laws of descent and distribution. 
 Nothing in this letter agreement, or the Plan confers on you any right to continue in the
employment of the Company or a Subsidiary or restricts the right of the Company or a Subsidiary to terminate your employment. 
 By
acceptance of this grant, you agree that you will not make an election pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. In the event you make such an election or attempt to make such an election your shares with
respect to this grant shall be deemed forfeited and canceled. 
 At the time you are taxable with respect to your Performance Shares, the
Company may deduct and withhold from amounts payable to you under the Plan or from any payment of any kind otherwise due to you, an amount sufficient to satisfy all Federal, state and/or local income and employment tax withholding requirements. In
accordance with Section 14(b) of the Plan, you may elect to have the withholding obligation satisfied by authorizing the Company to hold back shares of common stock to be issued that have a Fair Market Value as of the date withholding is effected
sufficient to satisfy the withholding amount due, or by transferring to the Company shares of common stock having a Fair Market Value as of the date withholding is effected sufficient to satisfy such withholding amount; provided, however, that if
you are subject to Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 you may do so only in compliance with the additional requirements set forth in Section 14(b)(i)-(v) of the Plan. 

This letter agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the Company (and its successors and assigns) and you (and your estate).

 This letter agreement shall be governed, construed and enforced in accordance with the Plan and with the laws of the State of New York.

Note: July 18, 2016

NEITHER THESE SECURITIES NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE CONVERTIBLE HAVE BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT.

10% FIXED CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

OF

OROPLATA RESOURCES, INC.

Issuance Date: July 18, 2016

Total Face Value of Note: $75,000

THIS NOTE is a duly authorized Fixed Convertible Promissory Note of Oroplata Resources, Inc. a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Nevada (the “Company”), designated as the Company's 10% Fixed Convertible Promissory Note due February 18, 2017 (“Maturity Date”) in the principal amount of $75,000 (the “Note”).

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the Company hereby promises to pay to the order of Tangiers Investment Group, LLC or its registered assigns or successors-in-interest (the “Holder”) the Principal Sum of $75,000 (the “Principal Sum”) and to pay “guaranteed” interest on the principal balance hereof at an amount equivalent to 10% of the Principal Sum, to the extent such Principal Sum and “guaranteed” interest and any other interest, fees, liquidated damages and/or items due to Holder herein have been repaid or converted into the Company's Common Stock (the “Common Stock”), in accordance with the terms hereof.

In the event the S-1 related to the Investment Agreement dated July 18, 2016 and executed by the Holder and Company goes effective within 180 days of the effective date of this Note, the Maturity Date of this Note will be extended to ten (10) months. 

In addition to the “guaranteed” interest referenced above, and in the Event of Default pursuant to Section 2.00(a), additional interest will accrue from the date of the Event of Default at the rate equal to the lower of 20% per annum or the highest rate permitted by law (the “Default Rate”). 

This Note will become effective only upon the execution by both parties, including the execution of Exhibits B, C, the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions and the July 18, 2016 Investment Agreement (the “Date of Execution”) between the Company and Holder (the “Effective Date”).

This Note may not be prepaid by the Company, in whole or in part, at any time without approval by the Holder.

For purposes hereof the following terms shall have the meanings ascribed to them below:

“Business Day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial banks in the City of New York are authorized or required by law or executive order to remain closed.

“Conversion Price” shall be fixed at a price equal to the lowest trading price of the Company’s common stock during the 5 consecutive Trading Days prior to the Effective Date. 

1

“Principal Amount” shall refer to the sum of (i) the original principal amount of this Note (including the original issue discount, prorated if the Note has not been funded in full), (ii) all guaranteed and other accrued but unpaid interest hereunder, (iii) any fees due hereunder, (iv) liquidated damages, and (v) any default payments owing under the Note, in each case previously paid or added to the Principal Amount.

“Principal Market” shall refer to the primary exchange on which the Company’s common stock is traded or quoted.

“Trading Day” shall mean a day on which there is trading or quoting for any security on the Principal Market.

“Underlying Shares” means the shares of common stock into which the Note is convertible (including interest, fees, liquidated damages and/or principal payments in common stock as set forth herein) in accordance with the terms hereof.

The following terms and conditions shall apply to this Note:

Section 1.00

Conversion.

(a)

Conversion Right. Subject to the terms hereof and restrictions and limitations contained herein, the Holder shall have the right, at the Holder's sole option, at any time and from time to time to convert in whole or in part the outstanding and unpaid Principal Amount under this Note into shares of Common Stock as per the Conversion Formula. The date of any conversion notice (“Conversion Notice”) hereunder shall be referred to herein as the “Conversion Date”. 

(b)

Stock Certificates or DWAC. The Company will deliver to the Holder, or Holder’s authorized designee, no later than 2 Trading Days after the Conversion Date, a certificate or certificates (which certificate(s) shall be free of restrictive legends and trading restrictions if the shares of Common Stock underlying the portion of the Note being converted are eligible under a resale exemption pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1)(ii) and Rule 144(d)(1)(ii) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) representing the number of shares of Common Stock being acquired upon the conversion of this Note. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, provided the Company's transfer agent is participating in DTC’s FAST program, the Company shall instead use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit such shares issuable upon conversion to the Holder (or its designee), by crediting the account of the Holder’s (or such designee’s) broker with DTC through its DWAC program (provided that the same time periods herein as for stock certificates shall apply). 

(c)

Charges and Expenses. Issuance of Common Stock to Holder, or any of its assignees, upon the conversion of this Note shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issuance fee, transfer tax, legal opinion and related charges, postage/mailing charge or any other expense with respect to the issuance of such Common Stock. Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees incurred from the issuance of the Common Stock to Holder, as well as any and all other fees and charges required by the Transfer Agent as a condition to effectuate such issuance. Any such fees or charges, as noted in this Section that are paid by the Holder (whether from the Company’s delays, outright refusal to pay, or otherwise), will be automatically added to the Principal Sum of the Note and tack back to the Effective Date for purposes of Rule 144. 

(d)

Delivery Timeline. If the Company fails to deliver to the Holder such certificate or certificates (or shares through the DWAC program) pursuant to this Section (free of any restrictions on transfer or legends, if eligible) prior to 3 Trading Days after the Conversion Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder as liquidated damages an amount equal to $2,000 per day, until such certificate or certificates are delivered. The Company acknowledges that it would be extremely difficult or impracticable to determine the Holder’s actual damages and costs resulting from a failure to deliver the Common Stock and the inclusion herein of any such additional amounts are the agreed upon liquidated damages representing a reasonable estimate of those damages and costs. Such liquidated damages will be automatically added to the Principal Sum of the Note and tack back to the Effective Date for purposes of Rule 144. 

2

(e)

Reservation of Underlying Securities. The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available for Holder, out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock solely for the purpose of issuance upon conversion of this Note, free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of persons other than the Holder, five times the number of shares of Common Stock as shall be issuable (taking into account the adjustments under this Section 1.00, but without regard to any ownership limitations contained herein) upon the conversion of this Note (consisting of the Principal Amount), under the formula in Section 2.00(c), to Common Stock (the “Required Reserve”). The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be issuable will, upon issue, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully-paid, non-assessable and freely-tradable (if eligible). If the amount of shares on reserve in Holder’s name at the Company’s transfer agent for this Note shall drop below the Required Reserve, the Company will, within 2 Trading Days of notification from Holder, instruct the transfer agent to increase the number of shares so that the Required Reserve is met. In the event that the Company does not instruct the transfer agent to increase the number of shares so that the Required Reserve is met, the Holder will be allowed, if applicable, to provide this instruction as per the terms of the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions attached to this Note. The Company agrees that the maintenance of the Required Reserve is a material term of this Note and any breach of this Section 1.00(e) will result in a default of the Note.

The Company agrees that this is a material term of this Note and any breach of this Section 1.00(e) will result in a default of the Note.

(f)

Conversion Limitation. The Holder will not submit a conversion to the Company that would result in the Holder beneficially owning more than 9.99% of the then total outstanding shares of the Company (“Restricted Ownership Percentage”).

(g)

Conversion Delays. If the Company fails to deliver shares in accordance with the timeframe stated in Section 1.00(b), the Holder, at any time prior to selling all of those shares, may rescind any portion, in whole or in part, of that particular conversion attributable to the unsold shares. The rescinded conversion amount will be returned to the Principal Sum with the rescinded conversion shares returned to the Company, under the expectation that any returned conversion amounts will tack back to the Effective Date.

(h)

Shorting and Hedging. Holder may not engage in any “shorting” or “hedging” transaction(s) in the Common Stock prior to conversion.

(i)

Conversion Right Unconditional. If the Holder shall provide a Conversion Notice as provided herein, the Company's obligations to deliver Common Stock shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any claim of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, or alleged breach by the Holder of any obligation to the Company.

Section 2.00

Defaults and Remedies.

(a)

Events of Default. An “Event of Default” is: (i) a default in payment of any amount due hereunder which default continues for more than 5 Trading Days after the due date; (ii) a default in the timely issuance of underlying shares upon and in accordance with terms of Section 1.00, which default continues for 2 Trading Days after the Company has failed to issue shares or deliver stock certificates within the 3rd Trading Day following the Conversion Date; (iii) if the Company does not issue the press release or file the Current Report on Form 8-K, in each case in accordance with the provisions and the deadlines referenced Section 4.00(i); (iv) failure by the Company for 3 days after notice has been received by the Company to comply with any material provision of this Note; (v) failure of the Company to remain compliant with DTC, thus incurring a “chilled” status with DTC; (vi) if the Company is subject to any Bankruptcy Event; (vii) any failure of the Company to satisfy its “filing” obligations under Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”) and the rules and guidelines issued by OTC Markets News Service, OTCMarkets.com and their affiliates; (viii) any failure of the Company to provide the Holder with information related to its corporate structure including, but not limited to, the number of authorized and outstanding shares, public float, etc. within 1 Trading Day of request by Holder; (ix) failure by the Company to maintain the Required Reserve in accordance with the terms of Section 1.00(e); (x) failure of Company’s Common Stock to maintain a closing bid price in its Principal Market above $0.01 for more than 3 consecutive Trading Days; (xi) any delisting from a Principal Market for any reason; (xii) failure by Company to pay any of its Transfer Agent fees in excess of $2,000 or to maintain a Transfer Agent of record; (xiii) failure by Company to notify Holder of a change in Transfer Agent within 24 hours of such change; (xiv) any trading suspension imposed by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under Sections 12(j) or 12(k) of the 1934 Act; (xv) failure by the Company to meet all requirements necessary to satisfy the availability of Rule 144 to the Holder or its assigns, including but not limited to the timely fulfillment of its filing requirements as a fully-reporting issuer registered with the SEC, requirements for XBRL filings, and requirements for disclosure of financial statements on its website

3

(b)

Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs, excluding an Event of Default under Section 2.00(x), the outstanding Principal Amount of this Note owing in respect thereof through the date of acceleration, shall become, at the Holder's election, immediately due and payable in cash at the “Mandatory Default Amount”. The Mandatory Default Amount means 145% of the outstanding Principal Amount of this Note. Commencing 5 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default that results in the eventual acceleration of this Note, this Note shall accrue additional interest, in addition to the Note’s “guaranteed” interest, at a rate equal to the lesser of 20% per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law. In connection with such acceleration described herein, the Holder need not provide, and the Issuer hereby waives, any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, and the Holder may immediately and without expiration of any grace period enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies available to it under applicable law. No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent event of default or impair any right consequent thereon. Nothing herein shall limit the Holder's right to pursue any other remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Issuer's failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Note as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

(c)

Conversion Right. At any time and from time to time, at least 180 days from the Effective Date, after an Event of Default described in Section 2.00(a) has occurred, and subject to the terms hereof and restrictions and limitations contained herein, the Holder shall have the right, at the Holder's sole option, to convert in whole or in part the outstanding and unpaid Principal Amount under this Note into shares of Common Stock at the Default Conversion Price. The “Default Conversion Price” shall be equal to the lower of: (a) the Conversion Price or (b) 60% of the lowest trading price of the Company’s common stock during the 20 consecutive Trading Days prior to the date on which the Holder elects to convert all or part of the Note. If the Company is placed on “chilled” status with the DTC, the discount shall be increased by 10%, i.e., from 40% to 50%, until such chill is remedied. If the Company is not DWAC eligible through their Transfer Agent and DTC’s FAST system, the discount will be increased by 5%, i.e., from 40% to 45%. In the case of both, the discount shall be a cumulative increase of 15%, i.e., from 40% to 55%. 

Section 3.00 

Representations and Warranties of Holder.

Holder hereby represents and warrants to the Company that:

(a)

Holder is an “accredited investor,” as such term is defined in Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and will acquire this Note and the Underlying Shares (collectively, the “Securities”) for its own account and not with a view to a sale or distribution thereof as that term is used in Section 2(a)(11) of the 1933 Act, in a manner which would require registration under the 1933 Act or any state securities laws. Holder has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that such Holder is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the Securities. Holder can bear the economic risk of the Securities, has knowledge and experience in financial business matters and is capable of bearing and managing the risk of investment in the Securities. Holder recognizes that the Securities have not been registered under the 1933 Act, nor under the securities laws of any state and, therefore, cannot be resold unless the resale of the Securities is registered under the 1933 Act or unless an exemption from registration is available. Holder has carefully considered and has, to the extent Holder believes such discussion necessary, discussed with its professional, legal, tax and financial advisors, the suitability of an investment in the Securities for its particular tax and financial situation and its advisers, if such advisors were deemed necessary, and has determined that the Securities are a suitable investment for it. Holder has not been offered the Securities by any form of general solicitation or advertising, including, but not limited to, advertisements, articles, notices or other communications published in any newspaper, magazine, or other similar media or television or radio broadcast or any seminar or meeting where, to Holders’ knowledge, those individuals that have attended have been invited by any such or similar means of general solicitation or advertising. Holder has had an opportunity to ask questions of and receive satisfactory answers from the Company, or any person or persons acting on behalf of the Company, concerning the terms and conditions of the Securities and the Company, and all such questions have been answered to the full satisfaction of Holder. The Company has not supplied Holder any information regarding the Securities or an investment in the Securities other than as contained in this Agreement, and Holder is relying on its own investigation and evaluation of the Company and the Securities and not on any other information.

(b)

The Holder is a limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its incorporation and has all requisite corporate power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted. The Holder is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify would have a material adverse effect on its business or properties.

(c)

All corporate action has been taken on the part of the Holder, its officers, directors and stockholders necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of this Note. The Holder has taken all corporate action required to make all of the obligations of the Holder reflected in the provisions of this Note, valid and enforceable obligations.

4

(d)

Each certificate or instrument representing Securities will be endorsed with the following legend (or a substantially similar legend), unless or until registered under the 1933 Act:

THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS THERE IS AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT COVERING SUCH SECURITIES, THE TRANSFER IS MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144 PROMULGATED UNDER SUCH ACT OR THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR THE HOLDER OF THESE SECURITIES WHICH IS REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, STATING THAT SUCH SALE, TRANSFER, ASSIGNMENT OR HYPOTHECATION IS EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION AND PROSPECTUS DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS OF SUCH ACT.

Section 4.00

General.

(a) 

Payment of Expenses. The Company agrees to pay all reasonable charges and expenses, including attorneys' fees and expenses, which may be incurred by the Holder in successfully enforcing this Note and/or collecting any amount due under this Note.

(b)
