ARTICLE II

PURCHASE AND SALE OF ASSETS

2.1 Assets to be Purchased. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, on the Closing Date, Seller shall sell to Buyer the Assets.

2.2 Purchase Price.

(a) The purchase price for the Assets (“Purchase Price”) shall be $7,000,000 (SEVEN MILLION DOLLARS) payable as follows:

(i)

Acknowledgement by Seller and credit to Buyer of the sum of US$60,000, previously received by Seller for expenses and option payments related to the Property;

(ii)

Payment on or before the Closing Date by Titan to Seller of the Initial Payment, which is defined as the sum of US$85,000;

(iii)

A promissory note (the “Note”) in the principal amount of US$6,855,000 (Six Million Eight hundred fifty five thousand DOLLARS) will be executed by Buyer, and delivered to Seller by Buyer on the Closing Date. The Note shall be interest-free. All Advance Production Payments and Production Payments (defined below) paid to Seller shall be credited against any outstanding balance of or amounts due under the Note.

The Note shall be secured by a purchase money mortgage (“Mortgage”), in a form mutually acceptable to the parties, executed and delivered by Buyer on the Closing Date.

(iv)

Commencing six (6) months from the date of the Initial Payment and every six (6) months thereafter, Titan shall pay Seller, as Advance Production Payment, the initial amount of $62,500 (the “Advance Production Payment”), as adjusted hereunder, until Commencement of Commercial Production from the Property. The Advance Production Payment amount shall be first adjusted, at the second time that an Advance Production Payment is due, by multiplying the Advance Production Payment amount by the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) issued by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the United States Department of Labor. For each successive period that Advance Production Payments are due, the adjusted Advance Production Payment amount paid for the preceding period shall be similarly adjusted.

(v)

As of the Closing Date, Titan will assume all liabilities of Wyomex and make all lease or other payments required following the Closing under the Mineral Lease Agreement for the Leased Real Property, including payment of real property taxes and payment of the sum of $1,000 per month to be paid as an Advance Production Payment under the Mineral Lease. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the foregoing property tax and $1,000 per month payments pursuant to the Mineral Lease shall not be credited toward the Purchase Price hereunder.

(b)

At the Commencement of Commercial Production, the semi-annual Advance Production Payment shall convert to a 4.5% gross metal value payment (“GMP”) on iron ore, concentrates, and/or other mineral materials produced and sold from the Property by Titan and/or its assignees and affiliates to unrelated third parties (the “Production Payment”), provided, that for the Leased Real Property, the GMP payable to Seller shall be reduced by 50% such that Seller shall receive a 2.25% GMP on production from such lands, and the owner of the Leased Real Property shall receive the balance (a 2.25% GMP). Except for events of Force Majeure (including non-operation of the facilities after startup) in no event shall the total Production Payment paid by Buyer to Seller and the owner of the Leased Real Property be less than US$150,000 in any given calendar year. All Advance Production Payments and Production Payments, as they relate to Leased Real Property, shall be reduced to Seller by the amounts of such payments that must be transmitted to the Lessor of the Leased Real Property in accordance with the terms and obligations of the Mineral Lease for the Leased Real Property.

For purposes of this Agreement, Force Majeure shall consist of the occurrence of an event or events, beyond the reasonable control of Buyer, which render Buyer’s performance impossible or unreasonable under the circumstances presented. The foregoing shall include economic impracticality for the Buyer to conduct production operations. Where an event of Force Majeure exists, any minimum payment requirement shall be reduced proportionally to the time of the disability. No claim of Force Majeure hereunder shall excuse performance beyond a period of one (1) year.

For greater clarity, all payments of Advance Production Payments and Production Payments paid to Seller or relating to the Leased Real Property shall be credited as partial payment of the Purchase Price hereunder.

(c)

Each Production Payment shall be accompanied by a statement showing the amount of iron product and all other mineral materials produced and sold during the previous quarter and the application of any Advance Production Payment or the amount of the 4.5% Production Payment. Seller shall have inspection and audit rights relative to the Production Payment records.

(d)

Subsequent to the payment by Titan of the full amount of $7 million as set forth herein (including any and all payments made to the Lessor of or in relation to the Leased Real Property), the Purchase Price shall be deemed to be satisfied, and the Production Payment shall be reduced such that Titan shall pay to Seller, and the Owner of the Leased Real Property, a total GMP royalty of 1.5% for all iron product and/or other mineral materials produced and sold from the Assets during the previous month. The Production Payments due to Seller and the Owner of Leased Real Property shall be similarly reduced, as provided above, such that Seller shall receive a 0.75% GMP on such Assets, and the Owner of Leased Real Property shall receive a 0.75% GMP. Each such payment shall be accompanied by a statement showing the amount of iron product and/or other materials produced and sold during the previous month.

(e)

All Advance Production Payments and Production Payments shall be accounted for and paid separately with regard to the Leased Real Property and the Unpatented Mining Claims. A statement reflecting the foregoing shall be provided with each Advance Production Payment and Production Payment, and Seller shall have audit and record inspection rights with regard to said payments and accounting.

(f)

All ores, materials or products containing minerals shall be weighed or measured, sampled and analyzed in accordance with reasonable mining and metallurgical practices, and following same, Buyer may, at its discretion, commingle such ores, materials or products with ores, materials or products from other sources.

(g)

Except for the Assumed Liabilities, Seller shall be and remain solely liable and responsible for all other debts, obligations, duties, and liabilities of Seller. Buyer does not and shall not assume, accept liability for, agree to pay or pay any debts, obligations, duties or liabilities of any nature of Seller other than the Assumed Liabilities.

2.5 Deliveries of Buyer at Closing. At Closing, subject to performance by Seller, or waiver by Buyer (as applicable) of all conditions to Buyer’s obligations in Article VI, Buyer shall:

The party acquiring such interest shall notify the other party of such acquisition within ten (10) days after the acquisition. The party receiving such notice shall then have sixty (60) days after delivery of such notice in which to notify the acquiring party that, in its sole discretion, it elects not to have such right, title, interest or estate become subject to this Agreement.

5.8 Use of Assets. Buyer shall conduct its activities and operations with respect to the Assets in compliance with all Environmental Health and Safety Laws and any other laws applicable to the Assets or Buyer’s operations thereon. Buyer shall maintain comprehensive general liability and vehicular liability insurance with respect to the Assets and Buyer’s operations in a coverage amount of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence. Buyer shall keep the Assets free of any labor, mechanic’s or materialman’s liens or claims and, should any such claim be asserted, may contest such claim at its expense, provided that adequate provision is made for payment or removal of such claim if Buyer’s contest is unsuccessful. Buyer shall have the sole and exclusive right to determine the timing and the manner of any production and sale of materials produced from the Assets, and all related exploration, development, operational and mining activities.

During the term of this Agreement, Buyer or its successor shall timely perform all assessment work or pay maintenance fees necessary to maintain the Unpatented Claims in good standing, and make all required filings and recordings with county, state or federal governmental entities to maintain the Unpatented Claims in good standing. Proof of such compliance shall be furnished to Seller at least thirty (30) days prior to the applicable deadline. If Buyer fails to pay any required claim maintenance fee, perform any required assessment work or make any required filing or recording, Seller may perform any such actions, in which case Buyer shall reimburse Seller twice the amount of actual payments made and reasonable costs incurred within ten (10) days of Buyer’s receipt of documentation supporting such payments and costs.

5.10 Unpatented Claim Amendment and Relocation. During the term of this Agreement Titan shall have the right (but not the obligation) in the name of Seller, to amend or relocate any or all of the Unpatented Mining Claims, to locate lode claims on ground theretofore covered by placer claims and vice versa, to locate mill sites on ground theretofore covered by mining claims and vice versa, to locate state claims on ground theretofore covered by federal claims or mill sites and vice versa, to locate any fractions resulting from such actions, and to take such other actions respecting any or all of the Unpatented Mining Claims as may be authorized by any future federal or state mining laws and as may be determined by Titan to be necessary or desirable in connection with or in furtherance of operations under this Agreement or the protection or advancement of Titan's rights under this Agreement. The rights of Titan under this Agreement shall extend to all mining claims, mill sites, leases, and other interests located, amended, relocated, applied for, acquired, or otherwise affected by actions taken pursuant to this Section and all such interests shall be considered as part of the Assets and security pledged for payment of the Purchase Price. Titan shall notify Seller in advance of any actions taken pursuant to this section, and all expenses incurred in connection with such actions shall be borne by Titan. All such amended or relocated claims shall be subject to the Mortgage executed by Titan contemporaneously herewith, and constitute security for Titan’s obligations hereunder.

Seller and Buyer acknowledge that Seller has posted a reclamation bond in the amount of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) in conjunction with a permit issued by the State of Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality with respect to the Assets.

No course of dealing and no delay on the part of any party in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice its rights, powers or remedies, and no right, power or remedy conferred hereby shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to herein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.
