Area of Interest Owner and Sterling agree that, during the term of this Agreement, an Area of Interest will be established around each claim group that constitutes the Property. The Area of Interest shall be defined as that area within one mile of the exterior boundaries of the groups of unpatented mining claims described in Exhibit “A”. Any property or interests therein (“Additional Lands”) acquired (whether by staking, leasing, purchase or otherwise) by Sterling within the Area of Interest during the term of this Agreement, shall be included in and subject to this Agreement as if the newly acquired property was listed in Exhibit “A” and thereafter shall be part of the Property under this Agreement. Promptly following any such acquisition, Sterling shall give written notice to Owner of the acquisition, which notice shall include a true and complete copy of all documents (including all documents relating to or evidencing the acquisition [“Acquisition Documents”]) and data relating to the Additional Lands. In the event that Owner or its affiliates (including, but not limited to, any person or entity controlling or under common control with Owner) acquires (whether by staking, leasing, purchase or otherwise) any Additional Lands within the Area of Interest during the term of this Agreement, Owner shall give written notice to Sterling of the acquisition, which notice shall include a true and complete copy of all Acquisition Documents and data relating to the Additional Lands. Sterling may elect, by written notice to Owner within sixty (60) days following receipt of Owner’s notice, whether to include the Additional Lands under this Agreement. If Sterling timely elects to include the Additional Lands acquired by Owner under this Agreement, then the Additional Lands shall be included in and subject to this Agreement as if the Additional Lands were listed in Exhibit “A” and thereafter shall be part of the Property under this Agreement. Following the inclusion of Additional Lands in the Property pursuant to this Section 1, the Parties shall take such actions and execute such instruments (including, without limitation, an amendment to this Agreement) as either Party may desire or as may be required under the terms of the Acquisition Documents or applicable law to subject the Additional Lands and the Acquisition Documents to the terms of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to limit either Party’s right to apply for or otherwise acquire, on its own behalf and without any obligation whatsoever to the other, any right, title or interest whatsoever in or to any real property or mineral interests situated outside of the Area of Interest, and such right, title and interest shall not be subject to this Agreement.
