5. USE. Until default, Borrower may have possession of the Collateral and use it in any lawful manner consistent with this Agreement. Borrower shall keep the collateral free from all encumbrances, liens, claims and demands other than those in existence as of the date of this Agreement.

7. WARRANTIES. Borrower warrants that Borrower has the right to transfer all interest in collateral, that it is not subject to any interests of third persons, except as set forth on Schedule 1 attached hereto, that all financial or credit statements given to Lender before, contemporaneously with or subsequent to the execution of this Agreement are or shall be true and complete at the date of each and that Borrower will defend the collateral against the claims and demands of all third persons.

(g) At Lender's option all sums secured by this Agreement shall become due immediately after thirty (30) days after any default under this Agreement, occurs, and Borrower fails to correct same.

AN EVALUATION OF SELECTED MINERALIZED STOCKPILES ON THE MAY DAY- IDAHO PROPERTY, SOUTHERN LA PLATA MOUNTAINS, LA PLATA COUNTY, SOUTHWESTERN COLORADO, U.S.A
REPORT SUBMITTED ON BEHALF OF
WILDCAT MINING CORPORATION
DAVID A. GONZALES (CPG-11266)
May25, 2012
Surface Stockpile Material on Idaho Property
Since 2008, an effort has been made to gain control on the tonnage and grade of stockpiled material on the Idaho property within the boundaries of the Mayday-Idaho complex held by Wildcat Mining Corporation. Two piles (ID SP#1 and ID SP#2) were determined to contain gold-silver bearing rock with concentrations of gold and silver to make them viable targets (Figures 1-3). The exact source of these stockpiles is uncertain, but an effort is underway to determine where these materials originated. Preliminary measurements and assays were collected in 2008, and additional trenching (Tables 1 and 2) and sampling (Tables 3 and 4) of both stockpiles was completed in December 2011. In additional bulk density of 80.48 pcf was determined for a composite sample from stockpiles by Trautner Geotech LLC (refer to attachment).
In 2008 a rough estimate from surface dimensions was used to determine an approximate tonnage of ~2000 tons for the larger of the two stockpiles (ID SP#1); this was a poorly controlled measurement since a bulk density for the stockpile had to be assumed and the volume was not well controlled. Arithmetic mean concentrations of 0.26 opt Au and 0.86 opt Ag were determined from 14 grab samples out of pile ID SP#1 (Table 3). The gross tonnage of the large stockpile (ID SP#1) was recalculated at about 1200 tons from trenching and more detailed measurements on the dimensions of the pile, and the bulk density calculation (Table 2). Trench sampling across the larger stockpile determined a weighted-mean average concentrations of 0.21 opt Au and 0.22 opt Ag (Table 4).
In 2008 the smaller of the stockpiles (ID SP#2) was trenched and a volume of about 1246 cubic feet was determined with a gross tonnage of 50 tons (Table 1). Arithmetic mean concentrations of 0.30 opt Au and 0.63 opt Ag were determined from 14 grab samples from ID SP#2 (Table 3). Field measurements made in 2011 confirm the gross tonnage of the smaller stockpile (ID SP#2) at 53 tons with weighted-mean average concentrations of 0.20 opt Au and 0.20 opt Ag (Tables 2 and 4). Note that the smaller of the volumes presented on tables 1 and 2 is preferred since it was determined by a multiple trench end-area method that provided more accurate results.
With the new data from material in the two stockpiles, the grades and gross tonnages are sufficiently defined for these piles to be considered a proven reserve that
can be moved and processed. NOTE: The cost of the extraction, transport, and beneficiation of these stockpiled materials is yet to be determined, and has not been factored into the interpretations and conclusions of this report.
Level No. 1, In-Drift Stockpiles on May Day Property
On the floor of the May Day Level 1 main stope there is a pile of broken rock left from historical mining that is roughly 20 x 100 x 25 feet in dimension for a total volume of 50,000 cubic feet. This stockpile contains about 2700 tons of mineralized rock (Table 6) that can be milled using a density factor of 107 pcf (measured by Trautner Geotech LLC on May 24, 2012). The in-drift stockpile is heterogeneous and composed of material that has fallen from the walls and back of the drift for at least 40 years. The fragments in this pile range from less than 1 inch to several feet in dimension. The degree of mineralization in this material varies both vertically and laterally. Ten grab samples taken from the pile contain from no detectable Au to 1 opt Au with an average grade of 0.28 opt Au (Table 7). Although the concentrations of Au and Ag are quite variable, three of the samples have gold concentrations of ~0.7 opt Au. Silver values from these analyses ranged from 0.5 to 27 opt with an arithmetic average grade of 8.89 (Table 7) opt Ag. Not enough in-field samples have been collected in a proper fashion to determine a weighted mean average for grade. This material is already broken and can be easily moved for milling. The dimensions of these deposits are roughly defined, and samples have been taken from different depths of the pile. More surveys are needed, however, to get better control on the actual tonnage and grade of the material.

SUMMARY OF POTENTIAL MINERALIZATION IN THE WEST WALL OF MAYDAY MINE LEVEL NO. O
[SEE ATTACHED]
A SUMMARY OF POTENTIAL MINERALIZATION IN THE WEST WALL OF MAY DAY MINE LEVEL NO. 1, THE MAY DAY- IDAHO PROPERTY, SOUTHERN LA PLATA MOUNTAINS, LA PLATA COUNTY, SOUTHWESTERN COLORADO, U.S.A
REPORT SUBMITTED ON BEHALF OF
WILDCAT MINING CORPORATION
DAVID A. GONZALES (CPG-11266)
May 31, 2012
The west wall of the stope in the No. 1 level of the May Day Mine (Figure 1) has been a site of interest for geologic exploration since 2008. Geologic surveys in this zone have established an extensive zone of mineralized calcite and quartz veins adjacent to the north-trending May Day vein (Figure 1). In this zone, sandstone of the Entrada Formation is cut by a diorite-monzonite porphyry dike that dips nearly 90˚ and is up to 7 m (~ 20 feet) thick. The mineralization in the west wall of the May Day No. 1 stope is spotty and discontinuous, occurring as stockwork breccia pods and stringers. Mineralization increases from the sandstone wall rock into the dike. The sandstone wall rock generally has 5 to 15% sulfide and Au-Ag telluride minerals whereas the intrusive has 20 to 40% ore-mineral assemblages. Previous exploratory blasting in the west wall to a depth of ~6 m (~20 feet) exposed a ~10 m zone (~30 feet) of mineralization developed in the dike and its margins. Assay results for samples taken from mineralized zones at various points on west wall of the stope are presented in Table 1.
A two-foot channel sample was taken across the mineralized dike exposed on the west wall. This sample included ~2 m of brecciated sandstone wall rock on both margins of the dike. Twelve samples collected at 2-foot intervals (TO17a to TO17g and TO17.5 to TO17f) in this channel sample yielded a weighted mean average of 0.9 opt Au and 3.1 opt Ag. Sampling also revealed that Au-Ag grades increase on the margins of the intrusive and are as high as 3.9 to 4.4 oz/ton Au with Ag grades as high as 30 oz/ton.
The zone of mineralization in the No. 1 stope extends on the exposed wall for at least ~25 m (~75 feet) above the current floor of the stope. Veins in these upper workings are fairly continuous and well developed. Twenty-six samples collected from the bottom to the top of this zone (Table 1) yielded an arithmetic mean of 0.3 opt gold and 0.82 opt silver. Six of the samples that were collected contain 0.5 and 1.5 opt gold (Table 1).
Our preliminary data indicate that the gold and silver concentrations in the west wall of the May Day No. 1 stope are increasing with depth into the wall (west on Figure 1). No in-wall drilling has been done at this location to confirm the spatial dimensions of the zone of mineralization in the dike and adjacent host rock, but Eckel (1949) projects this dike on an east-west trend into the west wall for about 50+ m (150+ feet) (Figure 1). If the mineralization does extend to this depth then ~18000 tons of mineralized rock with multi-ounce Au could be realized. Again, this is an unconfirmed estimate of tonnage until drilling of the wall is done.
The mineralization found on the west wall of the May Day No. 1 stope also extends to the east wall of the stope. This zone has not been extensively sampled, but a survey with a hand-held XRF reveals numerous pockets and blebs with Au-Ag concentrations similar to those determined on the west wall. Precious-metals mineralization in both walls of the stope hold a great deal of potential and will be further explored.

Table 1: Fire assay data collected from the west wall of the May Day No. 1 level from 2008 to 2011. All samples were analyzed by Activation Laboratories except Hazen HAZ-01-08-11-11. Analyses with > 0.5 opt Au are highlighted in yellow. ND indicates that concentrations were lower than detection limits of the fire-assay methods applied.
