III. PAYMENTS, ADVANCE ROYALTY AND WORK COMMITMENT
 
3.1 Contractor shall make payment to Owner for the initial consideration of THREE MILLION dollars ($3,000,000) with the first payment of ONE MILLION dollars ($1,000,000) being made on or before November 1, 2012 and the remaining balance made in ten (10) consecutive payments of $200,000 beginning on December 1, 2012.  Owner warrants and covenants that it will utilize the funds to remove encumbrances and hold full title and exclusive possession of the Contracted Mines and Processing Plant free and clear from all grants, sales, liens, defects, adverse claims and encumbrances of any kind by November 15, 2013.
 
3.2 The payments in section 3.1 received by Owner shall constitute an Advance Royalty paid the Owner pursuant to Article IV of this Operating & Exploration Contract.
 
3.3 After the Initial Consideration, the Contractor shall be entitled to a credit not to exceed $25,000 over the 3-year term of this Operating & Exploration, of all such Royalties paid against Production Royalties otherwise owing to Owner pursuant to Article IV of this Contract. The advance royalty credit shall not be applied until after the first full year of production, or total Production Royalties paid to Owner pursuant to Article IV exceed $275,000, whichever occurs first.
 
3.4 Contractor shall perform exploration, mining, development, production, processing or any other activity (“Work” herein) which benefits the Contracted Mines and Processing Plant at a minimum cost of $3,000,000 for the first year, $3,000,000 for the second year, and $3,000,000 for the third year of this Operating & Exploration contract and commencing on the date of this Contract. All work on other lands within 500 feet of the boundary of any portion of the Mines and Processing Plant shall be deemed to benefit the Mines and Processing Plant for the Work commitment if such work is part of an overall plan or project that includes the Contracted Mines or Processing Plant. All costs expended for Work in excess of $3,000,000 for any one (1) year term shall accrue and be applied to the “Option to Purchase” price as described in section XXI.
 
3.5 In the event that Contractor does not perform work in the amount of the entire minimum expenditure required for the applicable year (which amount will include any excess amount accrued from the prior three year term), Contractor shall pay Owner the amount of any such shortage in cash or cash equivalents. Within 30 days after the end of each three (3) year term, Contractor shall submit an accounting report of the expenditures toward the work commitment and a report containing factual, non-interpretive data concerning the work of Contractor during the preceding 3-year term. On or before November 30 of each year, a separate one-year report shall be prepared and furnished to Owner containing factual, non-interpretive data concerning work of Contractor, if any, during the preceding calendar year.

3.6 The breach, by Contractor, of paragraphs 3.4 and/or 3.5 above shall entitle Owner to immediately terminate the Contract and in such event, Owner waives the right to sue for monetary damages.
 
3.7 Contractor shall provide work progress reports to the Owner on a quarterly basis.
 
 
IV. PRODUCTION ROYALTY
 
4.1 In addition to the consideration set forth herein, Contractor shall pay Owner a Five Percent (5%) Net Smelter Royalty on all mineral bearing ores once Commercial Production has commenced. “Commercial Production” means the commercial-scale operation of any part of the Property as a Mine by, or on behalf of, the Contractor, but does not include processing of ore carried out in a pilot plant or processing ore for other testing purposes. Commercial Production shall be deemed to have commenced on the day immediately following the first 5 consecutive days during which Minerals have been produced by, or on behalf of, the Contractor.
 
4.2 The payment of Production Royalty shall be made not more than 45 days after the close of the month during which the payment is received from the smelter or buyer on which such Royalty is calculated.
 
4.3 “Net Smelter Returns” shall mean the net amount of money received by Contractor from the sale of Contracted Substances to a smelter, refinery or other buyer, after deduction of costs of transportation to point of sale and costs of any concentration of Contracted Substances prior to delivery to the smelter, refinery or other buyer, and less the deduction of all cost, penalties or charges required by said smelter, refinery or other buyer to be paid by Contractor as a condition of sale. In the event a Contracted Substance is sold to any buyer other than a smelter, all costs incurred by Contractor after mining for processing or treating such substances, including refining, shall be deductible costs. It is expressly intended that any money received by Contractor from existing tailings and/or dump material be included in the royalty calculation.
 
4.4 The payment of Production Royalty shall be made not more than 45 days after the close of the month during which the payment is received from the smelter or buyer on which such Royalty is calculated.
 
4.5 Contractor shall be entitled to credit all Advance Royalty payments paid to Owner pursuant to Article III Paragraph 3.1 and referenced in Paragraph 3.2 of this Operating & Exploration contract against all Production Royalties payable to Owner under this Article IV.
 
4.6 All Contracted Substances which the Contractor chooses to market shall be marketed at the best terms reasonably obtainable, with due regard to freight differentials, and if such ores or concentrates or other products shall be treated at a smelter or refinery of Contractor, the smelter or refinery schedules used for determining the Net Smelter Returns thereon shall not be less favorable than the terms and conditions either being offered to others or being contracted with others at the time for products of like character and in similar quantities for delivery to Contractor’s smelters or refineries.
 
4.7 If ores or concentrates produced from the Mining Properties are refined or smelted at a facility owned by the Contractor, then the royalty interest of the Owner provided for herein may be computed on the basis of the value of such concentrate or shipment at the input side of such facility. The value shall be mutually agreed. If such value cannot be agreed upon, it shall be the highest price which can be obtained by shipping such ores or concentrate to a smelter willing to buy the same, taking into consideration the cost of transportation to the smelter and smelter costs and penalties.
 
 
3

 
 
4.8 By thirty (30) days’ written notice to the Contractor, the Owner from time to time may elect to take its royalty interest in gold and silver in kind. In such event, the amount of the production shall be computed on the basis of the value thereof at the input of the smelter (either owned by the Contractor or otherwise), divided by the price thereof as above determined for gold or the Johnson Matthey quoted price for silver.
 
4.9 The Owner may request the smelter or other ore-purchasing agency to deliver said royalty interest in production directly to the Owner or retain possession of such interest at the smelter for future sale.
 
 
V. INSPECTION, REPORTS, BOOKS AND RECORDS
 
5.1 Owner, or its duly authorized agent or representative, shall be permitted to enter into or upon the Contracted Mines and Processing Plant for the purpose of inspection, at all reasonable times during business hours, after 48 hours advance notice in writing to Contractor. Owner shall enter upon said Contracted Mines and Processing Plant at Owner’s own risk and so as not to hinder the operations of Contractor. Owner shall indemnify and hold harmless Contractor from any damage, claim or demand arising from the entry or inspection by Owner or its agent or representatives, or any of them, on the Contracted Mines and Processing Plant or the approaches thereto.
 
5.2 The books and records of Contractor insofar as they relate to operations on the Contracted Mines and Processing Plant pursuant to this Operating & Exploration contract shall be open to inspection and copying by Owner or its duly authorized representatives, at the expenses of Owner, during regular business hours, after 48 hours advance request in writing to Contractor. Within twenty-four (24) months after the end of each calendar year, Owner may at its sole cost and expense make or have made an audit of the accounts and records of Contractor concerning operations on the Contracted Mines and Processing Plant for that calendar year; provided that Owner may audit the accounts for a calendar year only once and provided further that Owner must notify Contractor in writing of its intention to cause such an audit to be made sixty (60) days in advance of such date.
 
 
VI. DATA ON THE PROPERTY
 
6. Upon execution of this Operating & Exploration, Owner will provide Contractor with access to all data concerning the Contracted Mines and Processing Plant then in possession of Owner or its agents.

7.2 Contractor shall indemnify and shall hold harmless Owner and all of Owner’s partners, agents, and employees, and each of them, from and against any and all obligations, debts, loss, damage, claims, demands, suits, controversies, costs, fees, liens, encumbrances, and liabilities whatsoever, including attorneys’ fees, in any way resulting from or arising out of any failure by Contractor to abide by any material term of the Operating & Exploration contract or any negligent or intentional act or omission by Contractor’s contractors arising out of or in connection with the operations and activities of Contractor hereunder, or out of its possession and occupancy of the Contracted Mines and Processing Plant, including environmental costs resulting from Contractor’s operations, or from any similar actions by the public during the term of this Operating & Exploration. Owner shall not be responsible or liable for any loss or damage to Contractor or to Contractor’s property or business that may be occasioned by or through acts or omissions of persons or entities (other than for negligent or reckless acts or willful misconduct or omissions by Owner or any of its partners, agents or employees) occupying, using, or passing over any part of the Contracted Mines and Processing Plant. Contractor shall use and occupy the Contracted Mines and Processing Plant at its own risk, and hereby releases Owner, to the full extent permitted by law, from all claims of every kind or nature, including claims for loss of life, personal or bodily injury, or property damage except as otherwise excluded herein.
 
7.3 Owner hereby indemnifies and holds Contractor harmless from and against any claim by the EPA or some similar federal or state agency based solely on past mining contamination or violations. In the event the EPA or a similar federal or state agency brings suit against Contractor as a person in the chain of title, Owner further agrees to defend any such suit on Contractor’s behalf at its sole cost and expense.
 
7.4 Contractor shall establish a contingency reclamation reserve fund for the purpose of assuring payment of reclamation costs caused by Contractor. There shall be deducted from net smelter returns on all materials produced and sold from the Mining Properties, after the Owner’s royalties are computed, five percent (5%) of the value thereof, for the purpose of a contingency reclamation reserve fund for paying potential reclamation costs, up to FIVE HUNRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($500,000). Said five-percent deduction shall be placed in an escrow account. If upon the termination of this Contract and the payment of all reclamation costs, there remain sums in said contingency reclamation reserve fund, the same shall be returned to the Contractor. If at any time after two years from the time the Mining Properties subject hereto or any of them are placed in production, it is determined that 5% of the value of such production exceeds the probable amount of reclamation to be paid from such fund or is insufficient to pay such taxes, then said 5% deduction shall be reduced or increased in such amount as may reasonably be expected to pay the reclamation costs which are to be paid therefrom. The monies placed in such reserve fund shall be deposited in such manner, if possible, to derive interest therefrom, and the interest shall become a part of the contingency reclamation reserve fund.

 
VIII. COMPLIANCE WITH LAW
 
8.1 In conducting its operations hereunder, Contractor will cause all work, development and mining to be done in a careful and miner-like manner, and Contractor shall fully comply with the terms and provisions of worker’s compensation laws and all other laws governing its operations under this Operating & Exploration contract, including but not limited to any mining or environmental obligation, under existing or hereafter enacted legislation.
