B. Option to Extend Term. Lessee shall have the right to extend the Term of this lease for multiple extended terms of five-years, by delivering written notice to Lessor.

Lessee expressly warrants and covenants that Lessor’s grazing rights shall have priority with respect to the surface pertaining to the Leased Premises. Lessee agrees not to interfere with or disturb such grazing activities. In the event of surface disturbance, Lessee agrees to reclaim said surface displacement in a reasonable time and manner.

B. Other Purposes. Lessor retains the right to use or lease the surface of said Leased Premises, or any part thereof at any time, and for any purpose, other than for exploration and development of underground minerals and ores and underground mining, which other use and leasing of said surface shall at all times be subject to the dominant mining rights and privileges herein specifically granted to Lessee.

C. Inspection. Lessor retains the right at all times during the Term of this Part B of the Combined Lease Agreement to go upon said Leased Premises and every part thereof for the purpose of inspecting the same and of ascertaining whether or not Lessee, and those holding by and under Lessee, are carrying out the terms, covenants, and agreements contained in this Combined Lease Agreement.

4. PRODUCTION ROYALTY. A. “Net Smelter Return Royalty;” Definition. Lessee agrees to pay to Lessor [***] Net Smelter Return Royalty (herein, “Production Royalty”) on minerals, ores and products therefrom, produced and sold from the Leased Premises during the Term of Part B of this Combined Lease Agreement. As used herein, the term “Production Royalty” means [***] of the amount paid to Lessee by a smelter, refiner, or other purchaser for ores, metals, concentrates, precipitates, cathodes, leachate solutions, or other products mined and sold by Lessee from the Leased Premises during the Term of Part B of this Combined Lease Agreement, less a deduction of all costs paid by Lessee for sampling and assaying, milling, concentrating, processing, smelting and refining the mined ores to yield a saleable product, and less the cost of all transportation (including packaging and insurance) of ore and products from the Leased Premises to the point of sales, and less any taxes or other levies imposed by government upon the mining, production or sale of minerals or products therefrom.

B. Definition of “Minerals” and “Product.” As used herein, “minerals” means all valuable minerals or ores containing metals or other valuable constituents, non-metallic industrial metals or rocks, clay, soil sand and gravel; “product” means any valuable metal substance or material produced from or in connection with the mining and/or processing of metalliferous minerals, and excludes petroleum, coal or hydrocarbon fuels. Lessor shall be entitled to Production Royalty only if minerals and ores are removed from property owned by the Lessor.

C. Calculation of Royalty. All Production Royalties shall be calculated on a calendar-quarter basis, and shall be paid to Lessor following the end of each quarter, within thirty days after receipt by Lessee of final payment during that quarter for such ores or products. Production Royalty shall not be paid on ores or products which are stockpiled upon the Leased Premises, or which are not recovered and sold by the Lessee or for which payment is not made to the Lessee by the purchaser thereof. Failure to pay Production Royalty to Lessor when due shall be grounds for Lessor to cancel Part B of the Combined Lease Agreement if payment is not made within 30 days after Lessor delivers written notice to Lessee.

ENT       2506:2016 PG 4 of 8

5. MINING METHODS. Lessee shall use such methods of mining as shall insure the extraction of the greatest possible ores consistent with prevailing good mining practice. Lessee agrees not to allow pits or excavations to become a hazard to persons or livestock.

6. WEIGHT OF MINERAL BEARING ORES. It is agreed that ore mined and taken from the Leased Premises shall be weighed and the weight thereof shall be entered in due form in books kept for such purposes by Lessee. It is agreed that the term “ton” as used herein means a ton of 2,000 pounds as shown by official railroad scale tickets, or by weight determined at the mine site scale, or by weightometer.

7. CO-MINGLING. Ores from the Leased Premises may be co-mingled with ores from other properties, provided that mined ores shall be weighed and assayed prior to co-mingling, and proper records of ores produced and valued derived from each property are kept by Lessee.

8. REPORTS.

PART C: TERMS & CONDITIONS APPLICABLE TO PARTS A and B

This component of the Combined Lease Agreement is by and between the [***] and expresses the general terms and conditions applicable to Part A and Part B, above.

1. TITLE AND INTEREST. A. Covenant of Title. Each party hereby represents and covenants to the other that to the best of its knowledge and belief that it holds the full surface and mineral title to the leasehold estate in undivided, fee-simple interest, and it has not assigned or encumbered the surface or mineral title, as applicable. Each party agrees that the other may, as applicable, pay and discharge any taxes, mortgages or other liens existing, levied or assessed on or against the applicable leasehold property, and shall have the right but not the obligation to cure any title defects. Each party shall cooperate with the other party and shall execute all documents and take such steps as either party may reasonably request in connection with such action.

ENT       2506:2016 PG 5 of 8

B. Other Than Entire Fee-Simple Interest. In the event that the true and actual surface and/or mineral interest owned by a party in a leasehold estate is anything less than the entire and undivided fee simple title as specified herein, then the rights and privileges shall be applicable proportionately. In the event that a party does not own the surface estate and the other party is obligated to pay fee or surface damages to the true and actual owner, then the full amount paid shall be set off against any payments due.

2. COMPLIANCE WITH LAW. Each party covenants and agrees during the continuance of this Combined Lease Agreement that it will fully comply with all the provisions, terms and conditions of all federal, state and local laws, regulations, ordinances and rules.

3. NOTICES. It is agreed that any notice required or permitted to be given under the provisions of this Combined Lease Agreement may be delivered in person or sent by private courier or certified U.S. Mail (return receipt requested) to the address set forth at the beginning of this Agreement, or to such other address as a party may indicate in writing to the other, and such delivery shall be deemed sufficient and in full compliance with the terms of this Agreement. Notices sent by private courier or certified mail shall be considered delivered on the date set forth in the receipt, or when unsuccessful delivery was attempted.

4. ASSIGNMENT. Either party shall have the right to assign this lease as to all or part of the interest of the other, and as to all or any part of the leasehold estates covered hereby.

5. TAXES. During the period of this Combined Lease Agreement, each party shall separately pay the property taxes levied or assessed upon or against its own property.

6. DEFAULT AND TERMINATION. A. Default; Procedures Before Termination or Forfeiture. It is agreed that this Combined Lease Agreement shall not be deemed forfeited or terminated for failure by one party to perform in whole or in part any of the covenants until after thirty (30) days following delivery of written notice of default to that party. If default is contested, and the notified party shall have been finally judicially determined that such default or failure exists, then the defaulting party shall be given a reasonable time therefrom to cure the default or failure, or otherwise comply with any such covenant. Only upon failure to cure shall termination occur.

B. Termination By Surrender. A party may surrender its applicable rights under either Part A or Part B, and thereby terminate that applicable Part of this Combined Lease Agreement at any time by delivering written notice to the other party. In such case, each party may retain the benefit of performance of all past obligations as full liquidation damages. The remaining Parts shall continue in force unless and until the parties have surrendered both Part A and Part B. Upon surrender of both Parts, all rights and privileges, on the one hand, and all obligations and commitments on the other hand, shall immediately cease.

7. ENFORCEMENT. All prior agreements are revoked and are hereby deemed null and void. This Agreement shall be applicable to all successors of the parties and shall be governed by the laws and construed by the courts and administrative agencies of the State of Utah. Should it become necessary to enforce any provision of this Combined Lease Agreement, the party prevailing in such action or effort shall be entitled to recover all direct costs incurred to enforce its rights, including reasonable attorney, expert and witness fees.
