The project is subject to two silver stream agreements, requiring delivery of 33.4 per cent and 66.6 per cent of each payable ounce of silver produced at the project to K2 Resources Inc. and ExGen Resources Inc., respectively, until the payment of 333,334 ounces of silver to K2 and 666,667 ounces of silver to ExGen is complete. Following this threshold, 16.7 per cent and 33.3 per cent of each ounce of payable silver produced at the project will be delivered to K2 and ExGen, respectively. The streaming agreements also include minimum quarterly delivery thresholds (8,400 ounces for ExGen and 4,200 ounces for K2), pursuant to which any silver delivery shortfall must be satisfied through the delivery of gold based on prevailing market prices. In addition, any payment amounts not made when due under the streaming agreements bear interest at a rate equal to prime plus 3 per cent per annum until paid.
