6.3 Taxes

6.3.1 Xxxxxx Resources understands, on the basis of its own verifications, that no goods and services, sales, value added, excise, transfer or similar taxes (collectively, the “Transfer Taxes”) in respect of the sale of the NSR Royalty to the Purchaser will be due and payable, and therefore agrees that it will not require payment of Transfer Taxes on Closing.

6.3.2 In the event that it is determined, following Closing that Transfer Taxes are in fact payable on the sale of the NSR Royalty and notwithstanding Section 6.3.1, the Purchaser shall be liable for and shall pay when due any Transfer Taxes levied by any Governmental Body in respect of the sale of the NSR Royalty to the Purchaser (excluding for greater certainty any income or capital gains taxes which shall be the responsibility of Xxxxxx Resources).

The Purchaser shall endeavor to ensure that all such access, investigations and inspections will be conducted in a commercially reasonable manner. The Purchaser will indemnify and hold Xxxxxx Resources and its officers, directors and employees harmless from and against any Losses arising out of any claim or cause of action for loss or damage to property or injury to Persons caused by or resulting from such site visits.

(b) not take any action, omit to take any action, or enter into any transaction involving or otherwise affecting the Property which, if taken or entered into before the date of this Agreement, could cause any representation or warranty of Xxxxxx Resources in this Agreement to be incorrect in any material respect or constitute a breach of any covenant or agreement of Xxxxxx Resources contained herein in any material respect without the prior consent of the Purchaser, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld;

(c) Xxxxxx Resources shall at its own expense use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain by the Time of Closing all certificates, consents or waivers of Third Parties, if any, required to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

For greater certainty, Xxxxxx Resources shall not use such proceeds for the acquisition or development of any other mining rights or mining properties unrelated to the Project.

-17-

6.6.2 Xxxxxx Resources must at the request of the Purchaser provide excerpts of, or permit the Purchaser at its own cost, after it has given reasonable Notice to Xxxxxx Resources, to inspect at their respective premises and at all reasonable times and with access to their relevant personnel, those Books and Records to enable the Purchaser to determine compliance with Section 6.6.1, and to make and take away with it copies of such Books and Records.

To the extent reasonable and practical given the information readily available to the Indemnified Party, such notice to the Indemnifying Party shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail and shall indicate (without prejudice to the Indemnified Party’s rights) the estimated amount of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party in respect thereof, provided that the failure to give such notice within such time period shall not reduce the Indemnified Party’s rights hereunder, except to the extent of any actual prejudice suffered as a result of such failure.

(b) all documents, records and other materials in the possession of such Party reasonably required by such Party for its use in defending any Third Party Claim,

and shall otherwise co-operate with the Party defending such Third Party Claim.

-20-

7.3.7 Upon making a payment in full of any Loss, the Indemnifying Party shall, subject to the rights of any insurers and to the extent of such Loss, be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party against any Third Party in respect of such Loss.

(a) payment for the Sale of Products from the Property; or

-10-

11.2 Payments

11.2.1 Except when an election is made by Recipient under Section 3.3, Royalty payments will be due and payable Quarterly within 45 days after the end of the calendar Quarter in which the obligation to pay the same accrued. The Royalty payments will be accompanied by an Operations Report.

In the event no written election is made, the Royalty shall continue to be paid to the Recipient as it is then being paid. Royalties on Products other than gold shall not be payable in kind.

11.3.2 If an election to receive the Royalty in kind is made under Subsection 3.3(a), then the Payor must deliver written instructions to the mint or refinery, with a copy to Recipient, directing the mint or refinery to deliver Refined Gold due to Recipient in respect of the Royalty by crediting to the Recipient’s account the number of ounces of Refined Gold for which the Royalty is due.

11.3.3 Title to Refined Gold delivered to the Recipient under this Royalty Agreement shall pass to Recipient at the time such Refined Gold is credited to the Recipient at the mint or refinery.

11.3.4 Any Royalty that is paid in kind shall reflect the Allowable Deductions that are incurred and deductible in calculating Net Smelter Returns under this Royalty Agreement, and the Payor shall be entitled to deduct that number of ounces of Refined Gold, equal in value to the dollar amount of Allowable Deductions, from the ounces of Refined Gold to be credited to the Recipient in respect of the applicable Royalty payment.

-11-

11.4 Audit and Adjustments

All Royalty payments will be considered final and in full satisfaction of all obligations of the Payor unless the Recipient gives the Payor written Notice describing and setting forth an objection to the determination or calculation of the Royalty within one year after receipt by the Recipient of the Operations Report referred to in Section 5.2 that relates to the Royalty payment in question. If the Recipient objects to a particular Operations Report, then the Recipient shall have the right, for a period of 90 days after the Payor receives Notice of such objection, upon reasonable Notice and at all reasonable times, to have the Payor’s Books and Records relating to the calculation of the Royalty in question audited by an independent firm of certified public accountants or chartered accountants selected by the Recipient. If such audit determines that there has been a deficiency or an excess in the payment made to the Recipient, such deficiency or excess will be resolved by adjusting the next Quarterly Royalty payment due. The Recipient will pay all costs of such audit unless a deficiency of 5% or more of the amount due to the Recipient is determined to exist. The Payor will pay the costs of such audit if a deficiency of 5% or more of the amount due to the Recipient is determined to exist. Failure on the part of the Recipient to make claim on the Payor for adjustment in such one-year period will establish the correctness of the Royalty payment and preclude the filing of exceptions thereto or making of claims for adjustment thereon; provided however that if fraud or gross negligence is determined to exist in respect of any Royalty payment, then no time limit shall preclude audits and adjustments on past Royalty payments.

If the Payor proposes to sell any form of Products to an Affiliate of the Payor, the Payor shall provide advance notice of the Sale to the Recipient. The Payor will be permitted to contract with an Affiliate of the Payor or an unaffiliated third Person for the smelting or other processing of Products, provided that such contract is on an arm’s length basis at market terms.
