c.                                       The Royalty shall be calculated quarterly as of the last day of March, June, September and December; provided, however, that a Royalty, if any, paid upon written off receivables shall be credited to the next calendar quarter.  Royalty payments for each preceding calendar quarter shall be paid in arrears within forty-five (45) days of the end of each of June, September, and December and within ninety (90) days of the end of each March, by the Company to Grandhaven.

d.                                      The Royalty shall be paid in U.S. dollars, without demand, notice, setoff or reduction, by wire transfer in good and immediately available U.S. funds to such account or accounts as the Grandhaven may from time to time designate in writing.

e.                                       The Company may, in the good faith exercise of its reasonable discretion, modify and amend its existing leases applicable to the Apache Lands and release portions of the Apache Lands (the “Released Areas”) from such leases and/or replace such Released Areas with other real property owned by the applicable lessors (the “Replacement Areas”) on which the Company will in the immediate future conduct mining of Authorized Minerals and in connection therewith shall add any such Replacement Areas to the Apache Lands and remove any such Released Areas from the Apache Lands; provided that no such amendment or modification shall reduce, diminish or otherwise adversely affect Grandhaven’s Royalty without Grandhaven’s prior written consent, which may be withheld by Grandhaven in its sole and absolute discretion.  The Company hereby grants to Grandhaven, its successors and assigns, for a period of 20 years after the date of this Royalty Agreement (the “Option Period”), the irrevocable right and option to exchange up to 1.1% of the Royalty granted under Section 3.a(i) for an equal percentage of Gross Sales of all Authorized Minerals sold by the Company from any lands or other real

4

property interests hereafter acquired by the Company or its Affiliates (whether owned, or leased or held pursuant to any other agreement), and are located in any lands that are not described in Part I of Exhibit “A” and are located within the townships described in Exhibit “B” hereto (collectively, the “Additional Lands”), which may include private, federal, tribal or Arizona state lands and interests (the “Exchanged Royalty Interests”); provided, however, that Grandhaven’s royalty from the Exchanged Royalty Interests shall not have priority over and shall be paid only in pari passu with payment of any Karlsson Royalty from the Additional Lands;  that Grandhaven shall cooperate with the Company and with Karlsson in order to effect that outcome; and that Karlsson shall be a third party beneficiary of Grandhaven’s obligations in this sentence.  Grandhaven shall have the right to select the percentage of such Exchanged Royalty Interests, the lands in which such Exchanged Royalty Interests are granted, and the percentage of the Royalty and the lands in Part I of Exhibit “A” exchanged for such Exchanged Royalty Interests.  Grandhaven may elect to receive one or more assignments and conveyances of Exchanged Royalty Interests during the Option Period.  Within ten business days after any notice by Grandhaven of such election, Grandhaven shall assign and convey to the Company its interest in the Royalty Interests so exchanged, free and clear of any lien or encumbrance arising by, through or under Grandhaven, and the Company shall assign and convey to Grandhaven the Exchanged Royalty Interests on the same terms and conditions of this Royalty Agreement free and clear of any lien or encumbrance arising by, through or under Grandhaven (other than any royalty interest of the Other Royalty Holders in such lands and interests as limited by Section 3.b).  Without limiting the foregoing, if the Arizona State Land Department refuses to consent to the assignment of any Royalty or requires any reduction of or imposes any condition on the Royalty assignment as a condition of approving an assignment of Royalty on State Lands or approving any royalty reduction or other action with respect to lease or other agreement covering State Lands, Grandhaven shall have the option to exchange the affected Royalty for Exchanged Royalty Interests.

f.                                        Concurrently with each quarterly payment, the Company shall cause to be provided to Grandhaven (i) a quarterly statement setting forth for that quarter the finished tons of all Authorized Minerals, the Company’s Gross Sales and the HNZ Royalties received by the Company, (ii) the payments made to the Other Royalty Holders; and (iii) the calculation of the Royalty payable to Grandhaven.

g.                                       In addition to the quarterly statements, within ninety (90) days after the end of each March, the Company shall provide an audited annual report of all of its operations consisting of a summary of the preceding year’s activities with respect to the Apache Lands insofar as those activities are relevant to the calculation of the Royalty.

h.                                      The following events shall be deemed to be “Reportable Events:” (i) the acquisition of an interest in any land or other real property interests by the Company or any of its Affiliates; (ii) the release of any Released Areas and the acquisition of any Replacement Areas; (iii) any modification to the Potash Sharing Agreement or any other lease, license, permit or other agreement pertaining to Authorized Minerals, whether now existing or hereafter acquired, whether in the name of the Company or any of its Affiliates (collectively, the “Underlying Agreements”), and any material notices (including claim of any default) given or received under any of the Underlying Agreements; and (iv) any change of an operator that is engaged in extracting, mining, processing or producing Authorized Minerals (an “Operator”).  Within thirty

5

(30) days after each Reportable Event the Company shall provide Grandhaven with a reasonable written description of the event.

i.                                          Any Royalty payment that is not paid when due shall accrue interest at an annual rate equal to the prime rate as published in the Wall Street Journal plus 5%, compounded monthly, which shall be payable on demand.

j.                                         Nothing herein shall be deemed to create any ownership interest (other than the Royalty) of Grandhaven in the Authorized Minerals or the Apache Lands or in any other real property owned, leased, or otherwise subject to a license, permit or other agreement benefitting the Company.

k.                                      The Company shall comply with all obligations under the Underlying Agreement at all times in order to maintain the Underlying Agreements in good standing and avoid any default thereunder, including by timely performing all work required under the Underlying Agreements, and timely paying all rental fees, advance royalty payments, royalty payments, payments in lieu of work expenditures, and other payments required the terms of the Underlying Agreements or by applicable law.

l.                                          If, by reason of failure to use best mining practices or negligence on the part of the Company or another Operator, Authorized Minerals are lost or wasted, or rendered economically unrecoverable, the Company shall be obligated to pay Grandhaven the Royalty thereon to the same extent as if such Authorized Minerals had been mined or processed utilizing best mining practices, and settlement shall be made on the basis of independent estimates obtained by the Company and approved by Grandhaven of the tonnage, grade and recovery rate of Authorized Minerals so lost, wasted or rendered economically unrecoverable

6

inspection to make copies and take extracts therefrom and to discuss with the Company and such Operator the calculations of the Royalty and Gross Sales; provided, however that such inspection shall take place at reasonable times during normal business hours and not more often than once per calendar quarter.  The Company shall cause that all of its books and records and those used by any such Operator to calculate the Royalty and Gross Sales to be kept according to the U.S. generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied.  In the event that any Affiliate conducts mining operations on the Apache Lands to extract, mine, process or produce and sell Authorized Minerals said Affiliate shall also comply with the terms of this Section 5.  Grandhaven and its representatives shall, at their sole risk and expense, upon reasonable advance notice to the Company, have access during normal business hours once in each calendar year (which limitation shall not apply if the Company is in default hereunder or to access in connection with a prospective purchaser of Grandhaven’s interest) to all operations conducted by or on behalf of the Company on or related to the Apache Lands for the purposes of viewing or inspecting the same, provided that Grandhaven and its representatives shall not unreasonably interfere with such operations.
