SUPPORT AGREEMENT

This Agreement dated July 22, 2013, between Teranga Gold Corporation (“Teranga”), a corporation incorporated under the laws of Canada, and Oromin Explorations Ltd. (“Oromin”), a corporation existing under the laws of British Columbia.

RECITALS:

	(a)	The boards of directors of each of Oromin and Teranga wish to encourage a strategic business combination between Oromin and Teranga in light of the existing offer by Teranga dated June 19, 2013 (the “Offer”, which includes the Compulsory Acquisition or Subsequent Acquisition Transaction (each as defined in the Offer), as each has been and may be further amended) to acquire all of the outstanding Oromin Shares not already held by Teranga;
	(b)	The boards of directors of each of Teranga and Oromin believe that it is in the respective best interests of Teranga and Oromin and their respective shareholders that Teranga proceed with the Offer as varied on the terms set forth herein;
	(c)	Teranga has entered into lock-up agreements with each of Oromin’s directors and officers; and
	(d)	Oromin has received an oral fairness opinion from RBC Capital Markets to the effect that as of the date of such opinion, the consideration to be received pursuant to the Varied Offer is fair, from a financial point of view, to Oromin Shareholders, other than Teranga and its affiliates.

In consideration of the foregoing and the mutual agreements contained herein (the receipt and adequacy of which are acknowledged), the Parties agree as follows:

(a)      Teranga shall contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement vary and extend the Offer by giving written notice (or other communication subsequently confirmed in writing) of the extension and variation to the Depositary at its principal office in Toronto, Ontario to provide for the terms and conditions as contemplated herein (as varied and extended as contemplated herein, the “Varied Offer”) and shall forthwith publicly announce such variation and extension. The consideration offered under the

Varied Offer shall be 0.60 of a Teranga Share for each Oromin Share and the Offer shall be subject only to the conditions set out in Schedule D. The term “Varied Offer” shall include any further variations to, or extensions of, the Varied Offer made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(b)      The Offer shall be extended in accordance with Applicable Securities Laws and the Varied Offer shall expire not earlier than 9:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on August 6, 2013 (such date, as the same may be extended in accordance with this Agreement, is referred to herein as the “Expiry Date” and such time on such date, as the same may be extended in accordance with this Agreement, is referred to herein as the “Expiry Time”). Teranga shall extend the Expiry Time in order to contest or appeal any injunction or order made by a Governmental Entity preventing the take-up of and/or payment for the Oromin Shares tendered to the Varied Offer or to seek any regulatory waiver, consent or approval which is necessary to permit Teranga to take up and pay for Oromin Shares tendered to the Varied Offer, provided that the Expiry Time may not be extended past the Outside Date. Teranga shall not terminate or withdraw the Varied Offer prior to any scheduled Expiry Time without the prior written consent of Oromin, except if this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms.

(c)      Teranga shall mail the notice of extension and variation in respect of the variation and extension of the Offer as contemplated herein (the “Notice of Extension and Variation”) in accordance with the Securities Act (British Columbia) and the regulations thereunder and all other applicable Canadian securities Laws (collectively, “Applicable Securities Laws”) to each registered holder of Oromin Shares as soon as reasonably practicable and, in any event, not later than 11:59 p.m.(Toronto time) on July 26, 2013. For greater certainty, Teranga shall determine in its sole discretion in which states in the United States to seek registration of the Varied Offer with the applicable state regulatory agency or to seek exemption from such registration requirements for the Varied Offer, in each case where permitted by applicable law.

(d)      Prior to the printing of the Notice of Extension and Variation and during the course of its preparation, Teranga shall provide Oromin and its counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on it, recognizing that whether or not such comments are appropriate will be determined by Teranga, acting reasonably. Oromin shall provide to Teranga all information regarding Oromin that is required for the preparation of the Notice of Extension and Variation. Oromin represents, warrants and covenants to Teranga that such information will be true, complete and correct in all material respects as at the date of the Notice of Extension and Variation and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

	(e)	Teranga shall use all reasonable efforts to consummate the Varied Offer, subject to the terms and conditions hereof and thereof. Provided all of the conditions to the Varied Offer set out in Schedule D shall have been satisfied or waived, Teranga shall take up and pay for all of the Oromin Shares tendered under the Varied Offer promptly and, in any event, not later than three Business Days following the time at which Teranga becomes entitled to take up such Oromin Shares under the Varied Offer pursuant to Applicable Securities Law.
	(f)	Teranga and Oromin will make all required filings in Canada under Applicable Securities Laws with respect to the Varied Offer (together with all amendments, supplements and exhibits as may be required thereunder) and all such subsequent filings as may be required under Applicable Securities Laws.

(h)      Teranga may in its discretion waive the Minimum Tender Condition only if there shall have been validly deposited pursuant to the Varied Offer and not withdrawn at the Expiry Time that number of Oromin Shares which, when added to the number of Oromin Shares currently owned by Teranga, constitutes at least 50% of the Oromin Shares outstanding calculated on non- diluted basis. Subject to Applicable Securities Laws, in the event that Teranga waives the Minimum Tender Condition in accordance with this section and takes up validly deposited Oromin Shares under the Varied Offer, Teranga will, on the day such Oromin shares are taken up, issue a news release setting out the number of Oromin Shares deposited and taken up and will extend the Varied Offer until the earlier of (i) the date upon which at least 66^2/3% of the Oromin Shares outstanding calculated on a non-diluted basis have been validly deposited pursuant to the Varied Offer; and (ii) the expiry of at least

two extensions of 10 days each in accordance with Applicable Securities Laws.

Nothing in this Section 1.5 shall require Oromin to support Teranga to an extent greater than stated in this Section 1.5 nor shall Oromin be required to support Teranga in respect of any action, suit or other proceeding involving Bendon other than the Current Bendon Litigation.

(b)      Oromin acknowledges that promptly following the time at which Teranga takes up Oromin Shares under the Offer that represent at least a majority of the then outstanding Oromin Shares (including the Oromin Shares currently held by Teranga), and from time to time thereafter, calculated on a non- diluted basis, Teranga shall be entitled to designate all the members of the Oromin Board and any committees thereof, in all cases subject to applicable Law. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, Oromin shall cooperate with Teranga to enable the Teranga designees to be elected or appointed to the Oromin Board and to the boards of directors of all subsidiaries of Oromin, and any committees thereof, and to constitute the Oromin Board and to the boards of directors of all of its subsidiaries, including, at the request of the Teranga, by using its commercially reasonable efforts to secure the resignations of all current directors of Oromin and of all of its subsidiaries.

Oromin will assist Teranga in the implementation of any Compulsory Acquisition or other Subsequent Acquisition Transaction. The provisions of this Section 1.6 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 1.7 Shareholders’ and Other List

Such notice to Teranga shall be made, from time to time, first immediately orally and then promptly (and in any event within 24 hours) in writing and shall indicate, in each case to the extent Oromin has such information, the identity of the person making such proposal, inquiry or contact, all material terms thereof and such other details of the proposal, inquiry or contact known to Oromin, and shall include copies of any such proposal, inquiry, offer or request or any amendment to any of the foregoing. Oromin shall keep Teranga promptly and fully informed of the status, including any change to the material terms, of any such Acquisition Proposal, offer, inquiry or request and will respond promptly to all inquiries by Teranga with respect thereto.

(d)      If the Oromin Board or board of OJVG receives a request for material non- public information from a Person who proposes to Oromin or OJVG an unsolicited bona fide written Acquisition Proposal and the Oromin Board determines that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes or could reasonably be expected to result in a Superior Proposal, then, and only in such case, Oromin may, and may permit Sabodala to consent to OJVG providing such Person with access to information regarding Oromin and its subsidiaries or OJVG, as the case may be, subject to the execution of a confidentiality agreement which is customary in such situations and which, in any event and taken as a whole, is no less favourable to Oromin or OJVG than the Confidentiality Agreement and which shall contain customary standstill and non-solicitation provisions; provided that Oromin sends a copy of any such confidentiality and standstill agreement to Teranga promptly upon its execution and Teranga is promptly provided with a list of, and, at the request of Teranga, copies of, the information provided to such person and immediately provided with access to similar information to which such person was provided.

- 15 -

(e)      Oromin agrees that it and its subsidiaries will not, and Oromin shall cause Sabodala to vote against any resolution, decision or action to, accept, approve or enter into any agreement (“Proposed Agreement”), other than a confidentiality agreement as contemplated by Subsection Section 2.2(d), with any person providing for or to facilitate any Acquisition Proposal unless:

	(i)	the Oromin Board determines that the Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal;
	(ii)	Teranga has not taken up any Oromin Shares under the Offer;
	(iii)	Oromin has complied with Section 2.2(a) through Section 2.2(d) inclusive in all material respects;
	(iv)	Oromin has provided Teranga with a notice in writing that there is a Superior Proposal together with all documentation related to and detailing the Superior Proposal, including a copy of any Proposed Agreement relating to such Superior Proposal, and a written notice from the Oromin Board regarding the value or range of values in financial terms that the Oromin Board has in consultation with its financial advisors determined should be ascribed to any non-cash consideration offered under the Superior Proposal, such documents to be so provided to Teranga not less than five Business Days prior to the proposed acceptance, approval, recommendation or execution of the Proposed Agreement by Oromin;
	(v)	Five Business Days shall have elapsed from the date Teranga received the notice and documentation referred to in Section 2.2(e)(iv) from Oromin and, if Teranga has proposed to amend the terms of the Varied Offer and/or this Agreement in accordance with Section 2.2(f), the Oromin Board shall have determined, in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that the Acquisition Proposal, as applicable, is a Superior Proposal compared to the proposed amendment to the terms of the Varied Offer by Teranga;
	(vi)	Oromin concurrently terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(e); and
	(vii)	Oromin has previously, or concurrently will have, paid to Teranga the fees payable in Section 4.1(3);

and Oromin further agrees that it will not withdraw, modify or qualify (or propose to withdraw, modify or qualify) in any manner adverse to Teranga the approval or recommendation of the Varied Offer, nor accept, approve or recommend, and shall cause Sabodala to vote against any resolution, decision or action to accept or approve, any Acquisition Proposal unless the

- 16 -

requirements of this Section Section 2.2(e)(i) through Section 2.2(e)(vii) have been satisfied.

(f)      Oromin acknowledges and agrees that, during the five Business Day periods referred to in Section 2.2(e)(v) or such longer period as Oromin may approve for such purpose, Teranga shall have the opportunity, but not the obligation, to propose to amend the terms of the Varied Offer and Oromin shall co- operate with Teranga with respect thereto, including negotiating in good faith with Teranga to enable Teranga to make such adjustments to the terms and conditions of the Varied Offer as Oromin deems appropriate and as would enable Oromin to proceed with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Varied Offer and any related transactions on such adjusted terms. The Oromin Board will review any proposal by Teranga to amend the terms of the Varied Offer in order to determine, in good faith in the exercise of its fiduciary duties, whether Teranga’s proposal to amend the Varied Offer would result in the Acquisition Proposal, as applicable, not being a Superior Proposal compared to the proposed amendment to the terms of the Varied Offer.

(g)      The Oromin Board shall promptly reaffirm its recommendation of the Varied Offer by press release after: (x) any Acquisition Proposal which the Oromin Board determines not to be a Superior Proposal is publicly announced or made; or (y) the Oromin Board determines that a proposed amendment to the terms of the Varied Offer would result in an Acquisition Proposal, which has been publicly announced or made, not being a Superior Proposal, and Teranga has so amended the terms of the Varied Offer. Wherever practical, Teranga and its counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the form and content of any such press release, recognizing that whether or not such comments are appropriate will be determined by Oromin, acting reasonably.

(h)      Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the Oromin Board from responding through a directors’ circular or otherwise as required by applicable Securities Laws to an Acquisition Proposal that it determines is not a Superior Proposal, or from withdrawing, modifying or changing its recommendation as a result of Teranga having suffered a Teranga Material Adverse Effect. Further, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the Oromin Board from making any disclosure to the securityholders of Oromin if the Oromin Board, acting in good faith and upon the advice of its legal advisors, shall have first determined that the failure to make such disclosure would be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Oromin Board or such disclosure is otherwise required under applicable Law, provided, however, that, notwithstanding that the Oromin Board shall be permitted to make such disclosure, the Oromin Board shall not be permitted to make an Oromin Change in Recommendation, other than as permitted by Section 2.2(e) or the first sentence of this paragraph. Wherever practical, Teranga and its counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the form and

- 17 -

content of any such disclosure, recognizing that whether or not such comments are appropriate will be determined by Oromin, acting reasonably.

	(i)	Oromin acknowledges and agrees that each successive material modification of any Acquisition Proposal shall constitute a new Acquisition Proposal for the purposes of this Section 2.2.
	(j)	Oromin shall ensure that its officers, directors and employees and those of its subsidiaries and any investment bankers or other advisors or representatives retained by Oromin or its subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are aware of the provisions of this Section, and Oromin shall be responsible for any breach of this Section 2.2 by such persons.

Section 2.3 Access to Information

Subject to the Confidentiality Agreement, and subject to applicable competition and anti-trust laws, Oromin shall (and shall cause each of its subsidiaries to) afford Teranga's and its bankers’ officers, employees, counsel, accountants and other authorized representatives and advisors (“Representatives”) reasonable access during normal business hours from the date hereof and until the expiration of this Agreement, to its properties, books, contracts and records (as well as to its management personnel to permit the planning and implementation of the integration of Teranga and Oromin and its subsidiaries), and, during such period, Oromin shall (and shall cause each of its subsidiaries to) furnish promptly to Teranga all information concerning their respective businesses, properties and personnel as Teranga may reasonably request. Nothing in the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement shall require Oromin to disclose information which it is prohibited from disclosing pursuant to a written confidentiality agreement or confidentiality provision of an agreement with a third party or to provide Teranga with access to any property where a Party is contractually or legally prohibited from doing so.

Section 2.4 Other Restructuring Assistance

Oromin shall use, and shall cause its subsidiaries, as the case may be, to take, or refrain from taking, such action as may be reasonably requested by Teranga, including without limitation to meet regulatory or tax planning or lender or internal reorganization or planning requirements, provided that any such planning or reorganization transaction shall not be adverse to Oromin or to Oromin Shareholders and further provided that Teranga shall pay all reasonable costs, expenses and liabilities, including any liability for taxes of Oromin or Oromin Shareholders that may arise, relating to such planning or reorganization transaction. If the Varied Offer is not completed, Teranga shall reimburse Oromin for any loss or damage, including for taxes, incurred directly or indirectly as a result of the planning or reorganization transaction and shall bear any reasonable cost associated with the return of the corporate structure, capital structure, business operations and assets to their state before the restructuring.
