Article 8
POWER TO CHARGE AND ASSIGNMENT AND RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL

8.1                 Power to charge. At any time prior to the exercise of the Option by the Purchaser the Purchaser may grant mortgages, charges or liens (each of which is herein called a "mortgage") of and upon the interest of the Purchaser in and to any of the mineral property interests comprising the Property, upon any mill or other fixed property located thereon and on any or all of the tangible personal property located on or used in connection with any of the mineral property interests comprising the Property, to secure only the financing of development of any of the mineral property interests comprising the Property; provided that, unless otherwise agreed to by the Vendor, it shall be a term of each mortgage that the mortgagee or any person acquiring title to any mineral property interest comprising the Property, or to any mill or other fixed property or tangible personal property located on or used in connection with any mineral property interest comprising the Property upon enforcement of the mortgage, shall hold the same subject to the rights of the Vendor hereunder as if the mortgagee or any such person had executed this Agreement as party of the first part.

8.2                 Assignment. Save and except as otherwise provided for hereinabove and in this Article, no Party may sell, assign, pledge, mortgage or otherwise encumber all or any part of its interest herein or to any of the mineral property interests comprising the Property without the prior written consent of the other Party hereto; provided, however, that any Party hereto may at anytime, and at its sole and absolute discretion and without the prior approval of the other Party, assign and transfer its interest herein or to any of the mineral property interests comprising the Property to any wholly-owned subsidiary subject, at all times, to the requirement that any such subsidiary remain wholly owned by the Party hereto failing which any such interest must be immediately transferred back to such Party hereto; and, provided further, that any transfer of all or any part of a Party's interest herein or to any of the mineral property interests comprising the Property to its wholly owned subsidiary shall be accompanied by the written agreement of any such subsidiary to assume the obligations of such Party hereunder and to be bound by the terms and conditions hereof.

8.3                 Right of first refusal. At any time both prior to and after the exercise of the Option by the Purchaser in accordance with the terms of this Agreement each of the Vendor and the Purchaser (hereinafter each called the "Disposing Party") hereby grants to the other Party a right of first refusal to acquire all or any portion of any interest herein or to any of the mineral property interests comprising the Property which the Disposing Party desires to dispose of (hereinafter called, collectively, the "Holding"). If a Disposing Party receives a bona fide offer to purchase from, or where a sale is solicited by the Disposing Party, then upon settling the proposed terms thereof with a third party for the purchase or sale of the Holding, the Disposing Party shall forthwith offer to sell the Holding to the other Party. The offer to sell to the non-Disposing Party (or Parties as the case may be) shall be on the same terms and conditions and of equivalent dollar value as those contained in the offer to the third party; provided, however, that should the Parties fail to agree upon a determination of the equivalent dollar value for any such offer, such equivalent dollar value shall be determined finally by arbitration under the provisions of Article "14" hereinbelow. The other Party shall be entitled to elect, by notice to the Disposing Party within 30 calendar days from the date of receipt of the offer to sell, to acquire the Holding, on the same terms and conditions as those set forth in the offer to the third party. If the other Party does not exercise its right to acquire the Holding as aforesaid, the Disposing Party may, for a period of 60 calendar days following the last date upon which the other Party could have made the election hereinabove, dispose of the Holding, but only on the same terms and conditions as set forth in that offer. Any transfer of all or any part of a Disposing Party's interest herein or to any of the mineral property interests comprising the Property shall be accompanied by the written agreement of any such transferee to assume the obligations of such Disposing Party hereunder and to be bound by the terms and conditions hereof.

The Parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Confidential Information is important to the respective businesses of each of the Parties and that, in the event of disclosure of the Confidential Information, except as authorized hereunder, the damage to each of the Parties hereto, or to either of them, may be irreparable. For the purposes of the foregoing sections the Parties recognize and hereby agree that a breach by any of the Parties of any of the covenants therein contained would result in irreparable harm and significant damage to the other Party that would not be adequately compensated for by monetary award. Accordingly, the Parties agree that in the event of any such breach, in addition to being entitled as a matter of right to apply to a court of competent equitable jurisdiction for relief by way of restraining order, injunction, decree or otherwise as may be appropriate to ensure compliance with the provisions hereof, any such Party will also be liable to the other Party, as liquidated damages, for an amount equal to the amount received and earned by such Party as a result of and with respect to any such breach. The Parties also acknowledge and agree that if any of the aforesaid restrictions, activities, obligations or periods are considered by a court of competent jurisdiction as being unreasonable, the Parties agree that said court shall have authority to limit such restrictions, activities or periods as the court deems proper in the circumstances. In addition, the Parties further acknowledge and agree that all restrictions or obligations in this Agreement are necessary and fundamental to the protection of the respective businesses of each of the Parties and are reasonable and valid, and all defenses to the strict enforcement thereof by either of the Parties are hereby waived by the other Parties.

Article 16
INDEMNIFICATION AND LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

16.1               Indemnification. Each Party hereto agrees to indemnify and save the other Party hereto, including their respective affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties" and, individually, as an "Indemnified Party") harmless from and against any and all losses, claims, actions, suits, proceedings, damages, liabilities or expenses of whatsoever nature or kind, including any investigation expenses incurred by any Indemnified Party, to which an Indemnified Party may become subject by reason of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. This indemnity will not apply in respect of an Indemnified Party in the event and to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment shall determine that the Indemnified Party was grossly negligent or guilty of willful misconduct. The Parties hereto agree to waive any right they might have of first requiring the Indemnified Party to proceed against or enforce any other right, power, remedy, security or claim payment from any other person before claiming this indemnity. In case any action is brought against an Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought against any Party hereto, the Indemnified Party will give the affected Party prompt written notice of any such action of which the Indemnified Party has knowledge and the affected Party will undertake the investigation and defense thereof on behalf of the Indemnified Party, including the prompt employment of counsel acceptable to the Indemnified Parties affected and the payment of all expenses. Failure by the Indemnified Party to so notify shall not relieve the affected Party of its obligation of indemnification hereunder unless (and only to the extent that) such failure results in a forfeiture by the affected Party of any substantive rights or defenses. No admission of liability and no settlement of any action shall be made without the affected Party's consent and the consent of the Indemnified Parties affected, such consent not to be unreasonable withheld. Notwithstanding that the affected Party will undertake the investigation and defense of any action, an Indemnified Party will have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel will be at the expense of the Indemnified Party unless:

(a)     employment of such counsel has been authorized by the affected Party;

(b)     the affected Party has not assumed the defense of the action within a reasonable period of time after receiving notice of the action;

(c)     the named parties to any such action include that the affected Party and the Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that there may be a conflict of interest between the affected Party and the Indemnified Party; or

(d)     there are one or more legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party which are different from or in addition to those available to the affected Party.

- 31 -

                       If for any reason other than the gross negligence or bad faith of the Indemnified Parties (or any of them) being the primary cause of the loss claim, damage, liability, cost or expense, the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to the Indemnified Parties (or any of them) or insufficient to hold them harmless, the affected Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Parties as a result of any and all such losses, claim, damages or liabilities in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the affected Party on the one hand and the Indemnified Parties on the other, but also the relative fault of the Parties and other equitable considerations which may be relevant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the affected Party shall in any event contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Parties as a result of the loss, claim, damage, liability, cost or expense (other than a loss, claim, damage, liability, cost or expenses, the primary cause of which is the gross negligence or bad faith of the Indemnified Parties or any of them), any excess of such amount over the amount of the fees actually received by the Indemnified Parties hereunder.

16.2               Legal proceedings. The Parties hereto agrees that if:

(a)     any legal proceedings shall be brought against either of them by any governmental commission or regulatory authority or any stock exchange; or

(b)     an entity having regulatory authority, either domestic or foreign, shall investigate either of them;

and personnel of either Party shall be required to testify in connection therewith or shall be required to respond to procedures designed to discover information regarding the terms and conditions of this Agreement, such Party shall have the right to employ its own counsel in connection therewith and the affected Party will pay to such Party a per diem amount for their services based on its normal hourly or daily rate together with such disbursements and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses as may be incurred in connection therewith, including fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with such testimony or participation.
