Exploration and Option to Enter

Joint Venture Agreement

▇▇▇▇▇ Creek Project

This Exploration and Option to Enter Joint Venture Agreement ▇▇▇▇▇ Creek Project (“Agreement”) is made effective as of July 7, 2020 (the “Effective Date”), by and among Pediment Gold LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“Pediment”), and Austin Gold Corp., a British Columbia Corporation (“Austin BC” or "AGC"), and its wholly-owned subsidiary Austin American Corporation, a Nevada corporation (“Austin NV”).

Recitals

A. Pediment leases and owns certain unpatented mining claims and fee lands which are located in Humboldt County, Nevada, and which are more particularly described in Exhibit A attached to and by this reference incorporated in this Agreement.

B. Nevada Exploration Inc. (Pediment's parent company) and Austin BC are parties to the Letter Agreement dated May 29, 2020 (the “Letter Agreement”) and First Amendment to Letter of Intent dated June 24, 2020 pursuant to which the parties agreed to enter into an agreement to allow Austin NV’s exploration for and development of minerals on the properties described in Exhibit A.

C. Pursuant to the Letter Agreement the parties agreed to negotiate and execute a definitive agreement and this Agreement shall constitute the parties’ Definitive Agreement which supersedes the Letter Agreement.

Now, therefore, in consideration of their covenants and promises in this Agreement, the parties agree:

1.       Definitions. The following defined terms, wherever used in this Agreement, shall have the meanings described below:

1.1       “Area of Interest” means the lands described in Exhibit A and as depicted in the map which is part of Exhibit A. specifically coloured in light blue and labelled “Pediment Gold LLC Claims”, medium blue and labelled “Leased Claims (Genesis)” and dark blue and labelled “Leased Private (▇▇▇▇▇▇)”. This Agreement shall apply to all interests and rights which the parties acquire in the Area of Interest and to any unpatented mining claims located by the parties in the Area of Interest to the extent any portion of any such interest or unpatented mining claim is within the Area of Interest, including any fractions or gaps among the unpatented mining claims described in Exhibit A. This Agreement shall also apply to any fee lands or interests in fee lands and unpatented mining claims in the Area of Interest which the parties acquire from third parties.

1.2       “Pediment” means Pediment Gold LLC, a Nevada corporation, and its successors and assigns.

1.3       “Feasibility Study” means a comprehensive technical and economic study of the selected development option for a mineral project that includes appropriately detailed assessments of applicable Modifying Factors together with any other relevant operational factors and detailed financial analysis that are necessary to demonstrate, at the time of reporting, that extraction is reasonably justified (economically mineable). The results of the study may reasonably serve as the basis for a final decision by a proponent or financial institution to proceed with, or finance, the development of the project. The confidence level of the study will be higher than that of a Pre-Feasibility Study. The term proponent captures issuers who may finance a project without using traditional financial institutions. In these cases, the technical and economic confidence of the Feasibility Study is equivalent to that required by a financial institution.

1

1.4      “Modifying Factors” are considerations used to convert Mineral Resources to Mineral Reserves. These include, but are not restricted to, mining, processing, metallurgical, infrastructure, economic, marketing, legal, environmental, social and governmental factors.

1.5       “Earn-In Obligation” means collectively the expenditure and other performance obligations of Austin NV described in Sections 6 and 7.

1.6       “Expenditures” means all costs incurred on or for the benefit of the Property for Exploration and Development Work pursuant to this Agreement, including but not limited to: (a) salaries and wages for Austin NV’s consultants and employees employed directly on or for the benefit of the Property and their out-of-pocket costs incurred for work performed on the Property, but not including salaries or wages of the head or home office employees of Austin NV or its parent corporation; (b) costs and expenses of equipment, machinery, materials and supplies; (c) payments to contractors for work performed on or for the benefit of the Property; (d) costs of sampling, assays, metallurgical testing and analyses and other costs incurred to determine the quantity and quality of minerals on the Property; (e) costs incurred to apply for and obtain approvals, consents, licenses, permits and rights-of-way and other similar rights in connection with activities on the Property; (f) costs and expenses of performance of annual assessment work and the filing and recording of proof of performance of annual assessment work, if required to be performed; (g) costs and expenses of payment of federal annual mining claim maintenance fees and the filing and recording of proof of payment of federal annual mining claim maintenance fees; (h) all taxes and assessments levied against the Property; and (i) costs incurred to acquire additional interests, rights and unpatented mining claims subject to this Agreement. Expenditures shall not include Austin NV’s payments of rentals, bonuses, minimum advance royalties, and other payments pursuant to the Underlying Agreements, including, any payments to the parties to the Underlying Agreements to reduce or purchase the mineral production royalties payable under the Underlying Agreements.

1.7       “Exploration and Development Work” means all activities directed toward ascertaining the existence, location, quantity, quality, or commercial value of deposits of minerals on the Property.

1.8       “Austin NV” means Austin American Corporation, a Nevada corporation, and its successors and assigns.

1.9       “Pre-feasibility Study” means a comprehensive study of a range of options for the technical and economic viability of a mineral project that has advanced to a stage where a preferred mining method, in the case of underground mining, or the pit configuration, in the case of an open pit, is established and an effective method of mineral processing is determined. It includes a financial analysis based on reasonable assumptions on the Modifying Factors and the evaluation of any other relevant factors which are sufficient for a Qualified Person, acting reasonably, to determine if all or part of the Mineral Resource may be converted to a Mineral Reserve at the time of reporting. A Pre-Feasibility Study is at a lower confidence level than a Feasibility Study. To qualify as a pre-feasibility study for the purposes of this agreement, it must be demonstrated that a minimum of 500,000 ounces of gold may be converted from a Mineral Resource to a Mineral Reserve at the time of reporting.

Pediment gives and grants to Austin NV during the term of this Agreement the right to prospect and explore for and develop minerals on the Property, subject to the terms of this Agreement, to the extent Pediment has the authority to grant such right under applicable federal and state laws and regulations and the terms of the Underlying Agreements. The foregoing grant from Pediment to Austin NV shall be exclusive to the extent Pediment has the contractual or legal authority to grant an exclusive right. To the extent that Pediment has surface, access and water rights relating to the Property and to the extent permitted by law, Pediment grants to Austin NV the right to exercise such rights. Subject to the terms of this Agreement and during the term of this Agreement Austin NV shall have the exclusive right to enter at any and all times upon the Property to undertake any and all types of mineral exploration and development work.

If Austin NV terminates this Agreement before completing its Earn-In Obligation or if Austin NV does not complete its Earn-In Obligation on or before June 1, 2024, Austin NV shall have no right, title or interest in the Property.

Expenditures incurred by Austin NV during any period in excess of those prescribed for the period shall be credited in Austin NV’s favor against subsequent Expenditure obligations. If on or before June 1, 2022, June 1, 2023, and June 1, 2024, Austin NV does not incur the yearly Expenditures in the required amount on or before such dates, Austin NV shall have the option and right, exercisable in Austin NV’s sole and exclusive discretion, to elect to pay to Pediment in cash an amount equal to the difference between the Expenditures actually incurred and the amount described above for the period (the “Differential Payment”). In such case, Austin NV shall be deemed to have incurred the Expenditures for the period for which Austin NV timely pays the Differential Payment. Austin NV quarterly shall provide to Pediment a description of the Expenditures made by Austin NV, and Pediment shall have the right to audit and inspect Austin NV’s records relating to such Expenditures. Austin NV shall have the option and right (the “Share Payment Option”), exercisable in Austin NV’s sole and exclusive discretion in respect of the Expenditure, to elect to pay the Differential Payment in the form of shares of the duly issued, fully paid, duly registered shares of the common stock of Austin BC, but only if such shares are listed for trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange, the TSX Venture Exchange, Canadian Stock Exchange, the OTCQB, or another internationally recognized stock exchange. Austin NV may exercise the Share Payment Option for only one yearly Expenditure obligation.

8.       Austin NV’s Option to Enter Mining Joint Venture. In consideration of Austin NV’s performance of its initial Earn-In Obligation, Pediment grants to Austin NV, and Austin NV shall have, the option and right, exercisable in Austin NV’s sole and exclusive discretion, to earn and vest an undivided fifty-one percent (51%) interest in the Property and to form a joint venture (the “Joint Venture”) for the management and ownership of the Property. When Austin NV has completed its initial Earn-In Obligation by completion of the Expenditures in the amount of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00), Austin NV shall be deemed to have exercised its right to enter into the Joint Venture with Pediment on the Property, unless Austin NV informs Pediment that Austin NV has elected to not exercise its option and right to enter into the Joint Venture. Austin NV shall deliver notice to Pediment of Austin NV’s completion of its Earn-In Obligation within thirty (30) days after such completion. At any time during the term of this Agreement, Austin NV shall have the right to accelerate performance of its Earn-In Obligation.

On Austin NV’s performance of its Earn-In Obligation, Pediment and Austin NV will execute and deliver to each other a definitive mining venture agreement based on the Rocky Mountain Mineral Law Foundation Exploration, Development and Mining LLC Model Form 5A LLC Operating Agreement (“Operating Agreement”), which shall incorporate the following terms and conditions:

8.1       Pediment’s initial participating interest shall be forty-nine percent (49%) and Austin NV’s initial participating interest shall be fifty-one percent (51%).

8.2       Austin NV’s initial contribution shall be Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00). Pediment’s initial contribution shall be Four Million Eight Hundred Three Thousand Nine Hundred Twenty-one Dollars ($4,803,921.00).

8.3       Subject to Sections 8.4 and 8.5, after Austin NV has completed its Earn-In Obligation, the parties shall contribute to future Expenditures in accordance with their respective participating interests as prescribed in the Operating Agreement. If a party does not contribute to future Expenditures in accordance with its respective participating interest, such party’s interest shall be adjusted not less than once annually such that its participating interest shall be in the proportion that the sum of its initial contribution (as determined in accordance with Sections 8.2, 8.4, and 8.5) and its additional contributions bears to the sum of both parties’ initial contributions and additional contributions.

8.4       Austin NV shall have the option and right to elect to increase its participating interest by an additional nineteen percent (19%) to a total of seventy percent (70%) by incurring and paying additional yearly Expenditures in the amount of One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars on or before each of June 1, 2025, June 1, 2026, and June 1, 2027, and by completing and delivering to Pediment and bearing the costs to prepare a Pre-feasibility Study for the Property (the “Additional Earn-In Obligation”). Austin NV must exercise the option within six (6) months after the date it completes its initial Earn-In Obligation. Austin NV must deliver written notice of its election to Pediment. If Austin NV does not timely exercise the option and deliver notice to Pediment, Austin NV shall be deemed to have irrevocably waived the option. If Austin NV elects to increase its participating interest in the Joint Venture to seventy percent (70%), the following provisions shall apply:

8.4.1       Austin NV must complete the Additional Earn-In on or before June 1, 2028. If Austin NV completes its Additional Earn-In, Pediment shall grant to Austin NV an additional nineteen percent (19%) participating interest to increase Austin NV’s total participating interest to seventy percent (70%). In such case, for purposes of calculating dilution, Austin NV’s contribution shall be the sum of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) plus the cost of completion of the Additional Earn-In. In such case, Pediment’s contribution shall be deemed to be the amount of Austin NV’s contribution multiplied by 30/70.

7

8.4.2       If Austin NV does not complete the Additional Earn-In on or before June 1, 2028, Austin NV’s right to increase its participating interest shall terminate and its participating interest shall remain fifty-one percent (51%) and Pediment’s participating interest shall remain forty-nine percent (49%). In such case, for purposes of calculating dilution, Austin NV’s initial contribution shall be the sum of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) plus the cost incurred by Austin NV in its attempt to perform its Additional Earn-In and Pediment’s initial contribution shall be deemed to be the amount of Austin NV’s initial contribution multiplied by 49/51.

8.5 When Austin NV has earned a 51% interest, the Joint Venture shall be deemed to be effective, and after such date each party will be responsible for its proportionate share of Joint Venture expenditures, except that if Austin NV elects to increase its interest to 70%, Austin NV shall fund and pay all Joint Venture expenditures until Austin NV completes the Additional Earn-In Obligation or Austin NV does not timely complete the Additional Earn-In Obligation and its interest is fixed at 51%. If either party chooses not to participate at the level of its interest in the joint venture (51%-49% or 70%-30%, as applicable), its interest will be diluted through the standard dilution formula found in Form 5A LLC.

If Austin NV does not elect to increase its participating interest by an additional nineteen percent (19%) to a total of seventy percent (70%), on or before six (6) months after the effective date of formation of the Joint Venture, Austin NV shall present a program and budget for Exploration and Development Work for the first twelve (12) months following the effective date of formation of the Joint Venture in an amount not less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00), plus the amount necessary to maintain the status and title of the Property, unless the parties otherwise agree to a budget in a lesser amount. At least two (2) months before the end of the initial twelve-month period and each subsequent twelve-month period, Austin NV shall present an equivalent program and budget, unless the parties otherwise agree to a budget in a lesser amount. If for any period the parties agree to a program and budget in a lesser amount, such program and budget must be in an amount not less than is necessary to pay all costs to maintain the status and title of the Property.

If following formation of the Joint Venture Austin NV fails to present programs and budgets compliant with the terms of this Section, Pediment shall have the right and option, exercisable in its sole and exclusive discretion, to elect to become the operator in place of Austin NV. In such event, Pediment may prepare and present subsequent programs and budgets which the Joint Venture shall be deemed to have approved notwithstanding that Pediment’s Joint Venture interest is less than Austin NV’s Joint Venture interest. If Pediment’s Joint Venture interest is less than Austin NV’s Joint Venture interest when Pediment exercises the option and prepares a program and budget, Pediment shall fund the portion of the program and budget Expenditures necessary to increase Pediment’s cumulative contributions in such amount that the parties’ respective cumulative contributions to the Joint Venture are 49% for Austin NV and 51% for Pediment. Thereafter, the parties shall contribute to and fund future Expenditures in accordance with their respective participating interests as prescribed in the Operating Agreement, subject to dilution as provided in Section 8.3.

8

If Pediment fails to present programs and budgets compliant with the terms of this Section, Austin NV shall have the right and option, exercisable in its sole and exclusive discretion, to elect to become the operator in place of Pediment. In such event, Austin NV may prepare and present subsequent programs and budgets which the Joint Venture shall be deemed to have approved notwithstanding that Austin NV’s Joint Venture interest is less than Pediment’s Joint Venture interest. If Austin NV’s Joint Venture interest is less than Pediment’s Joint Venture interest when Austin NV exercises the option and prepares a program and budget, Austin NV shall fund the portion of the program and budget Expenditures necessary to increase Austin NV’s cumulative contributions in such amount that the parties’ respective cumulative contributions to the Joint Venture are 49% for Pediment and 51% for Austin NV. Thereafter, the parties shall contribute to and fund future Expenditures in accordance with their respective participating interests as prescribed in the Operating Agreement, subject to dilution as provided in Section 8.3.

At Pediment’s election, which must be made within 120 days of the approval by the joint venture of a Feasibility Study, Austin will be obligated to provide Pediment’s portion of any debt financing or arrange for third party financing of Pediment’s portion of any debt financing required to construct a mine on the project described in the Feasibility Study in consideration for the transfer by Pediment to Austin of a 5-per-cent interest in the joint venture.

If Austin NV increases its interest in the Joint Venture in accordance with this Section, for purposes of calculating dilution, Austin NV’s Contribution to the Joint Venture shall be the sum of its initial contribution, its Additional Earn-In under Section 8.4 (if applicable) and its actual contributions for development of the mine, together Austin NV’s Total Contribution. In such case, if Austin NV increases its participating interest by the additional five percent (5%), Pediment’s contribution shall be deemed to be the amount equal to Austin NV’s Total Contribution multiplied by [Pediment’s percentage interest]/[Austin NV’s percentage interest].

If at any time a party's participating interest in the Joint Venture is diluted to below ten percent (10%), such diluted party shall be deemed to have withdrawn and been converted to a non-administrative, non-executive and non-working ten percent (10%) net profits payment interest to be calculated and paid in accordance with Exhibit B. The diluted party’s rights under the Operating Agreement shall terminate and the diluted party shall have no right, title or interest in the Property, except for the reserved net profits payment.

8.6       Austin NV shall be the initial manager of the Joint Venture and shall have control of the activities and operations of the Joint Venture. Subject to Section 8.5, Austin NV shall have the right to act as manager until such time as its participating interest in the Joint Venture is less than the participating interest of any other party to the Joint Venture.

8.7       A Management Committee shall be established and each party shall have one (1) representative on the Management Committee. The Management Committee shall meet periodically and not less than one (1) time annually. Each party shall be entitled to vote on matters before the Management Committee in the proportion of its participating interest. Matters submitted to the Management Committee shall be determined by a vote of the majority of the participating interests. One (1) time annually, the Management Committee shall establish the Plan of Work for the following year that specifically outlines a plan of Expenditures.

9

8.8        Each party to the Operating Agreement shall have the right to assign its interest in the Joint Venture to any parent or subsidiary corporation or limited liability company subject to Section 21.

8.9        Title to the Property shall be transferred to the Joint Venture which shall hold title subject to the Operating Agreement.

9. Title. On Austin NV’s request, Pediment will make available to Austin NV such abstracts of title and other title records pertaining to the Property which Pediment may have. On Austin NV’s request, Pediment shall prepare and deliver to Austin NV a report of ownership of the Property and the properties subject to the Underlying Agreements. Austin NV shall reimburse Pediment for the costs of preparation of the report. Austin NV may cure as it elects any defects in the title to the patented lands and the unpatented mining claims or the location, recordation or filing of the unpatented mining claims which comprise the Property. Pediment agrees to cooperate fully with the curing of the deficiencies at Austin NV’s expense. Austin NV’s title curative expenses shall be qualified Expenditures.

Pediment additionally agrees that Austin NV, on reasonable notice to and consultation with Pediment, may relocate or amend mining claims part of the Property and refile or re-record any documents or instruments for any mining claim part of the Property. If required for the relocation of any mining claim part of the Property, Pediment agrees to execute notices of abandonment of such mining claims as Austin NV reasonably requests. This Agreement and the Operating Agreement shall apply to and include any and all amendments or relocations of the unpatented mining claims part of the Property.

The parties desire to insure that any and all interests of the parties in the lands subject to the unpatented mining claims which comprise all or part of the Property, including any rights or interests acquired in such lands under the mining laws, as amended, repealed or superseded, shall be part of the Property and shall be subject to this Agreement. If pursuant to any amendment of the mining laws, Pediment is granted the right to convert its interest in the unpatented mining claims which comprise the Property to a lease, license, permit or other right or interest, all such rights or interests shall be deemed to be part of the Property subject to this Agreement. In such case, the parties shall execute and deliver an addendum to this Agreement, in recordable form, which provides that all such converted rights or interests are part of the Property and are subject to this Agreement.

If the United States or any third party attacks the validity of the mining claims which are part of the Property, Austin NV shall have no obligation to defend their validity unless Austin NV is required to do so by reason of its assumption of Pediment’s obligations under the Underlying Agreements or unless the attack is based on Austin NV’s failure to maintain the validity of such mining claims. If Austin NV elects not to defend the validity of any of the unpatented mining claims which are part of the Property, it shall notify Pediment and Pediment, at its election, may defend any such attack on the mining claims. If Pediment successfully defends against such an attack on the validity of the mining claims, Pediment’s expenditures shall be considered Expenditures and Austin NV shall be obligated to reimburse Pediment for the amount of the same. Austin NV shall not be required to defend any attack based upon any change in law effective after the Effective Date of this Agreement.

10.        Maintenance of Property. Austin NV will provide Pediment evidence of: (a) its payments under the Operating Agreements not less than thirty (30) days before the applicable deadlines for such payments; (b) its payments of taxes and mining claim maintenance fees as required by this Section not less than thirty (30) days before the applicable deadlines for such payments; and (c) its payments of taxes as required by Section 12 not less than forty-five (45) days before the applicable deadlines for such payments. Austin NV shall perform the assessment work and pay the Federal annual mining claim maintenance fees required to be paid for the unpatented mining claims part of the Property for the assessment year ending September 1, 2021, and for every succeeding assessment year during which Austin NV continues this Agreement to a date which is within sixty (60) days before the applicable statutory or regulatory deadline for maintenance of the unpatented mining claims for the succeeding assessment year. Austin NV shall perform and shall provide to Pediment proof of performance of the foregoing maintenance obligations not less than thirty (30) days before the statutory or regulatory deadline. Austin NV’s obligation to pay the Federal annual mining claim maintenance fees due September 1, 2020 for the annual assessment year ending on September 1, 2021, is a firm and unconditional obligation.

10

Austin NV shall be relieved from performance of annual assessment work or other work or payment obligations under this Section for any period in which the assessment or other work or payment requirement is suspended, and Austin NV shall have the benefit of laws enacted which relate to assessment work, including any laws which extend the time within which to perform assessment or other work to make payments. For each year in which Austin NV performs assessment or other work or makes payments, it shall record and file, as required by law, an affidavit of such assessment work or payment or other required recordings or filings.

Upon Austin NV’s failure to provide timely proof of performance of its obligations under this Section, Pediment may make any such payment on behalf of Austin NV and for the account of Austin NV, although Pediment shall be under no obligation to do so. Austin NV will reimburse Pediment for the cost of any such payment within ten (10) days after Austin NV’s receipt of notice from Pediment that Pediment has made such payment.

Until the parties form a Joint Venture in accordance with Section 8 and, afterward, during the period of Austin NV’s performance of its Additional Earn-In Obligation, Austin NV shall perform Pediment’s obligations under the Underlying Agreements.

11.    Communications with Pediment and Inspection. Pediment and its agents, employees and representatives at any reasonable time and on advance notice to Austin NV may enter the Property for inspection, but any such entry shall be at Pediment's own risk and Pediment shall defend, indemnify and hold Austin NV harmless against and from any damage, loss or liability by reason of injury to Pediment or its agents, representatives or employees while on the Property, except damage, loss or injury arising from the negligence or misconduct of Austin NV or its employees or agents. Austin NV and Pediment shall meet at regular intervals as requested by Pediment (not more frequently than quarterly) in order for Austin NV to report to Pediment on the status and progress of the Exploration and Development Work and Austin NV's plans for future operations on the Property. Austin NV quarterly shall deliver to Pediment copies of all exploration and other data, including drill hole maps, drill logs, sample maps, sample assay reports (drill hole and all other samples) and other data acquired or developed by Austin NV during the quarter. Austin NV shall semi-annually deliver to Pediment copies of all exploration plans and progress reports concerning Exploration and Development Work and engineering or other studies and reports developed by Austin NV or its agents and consultants concerning the Property, provided, however, that Austin NV shall have no obligation to deliver to Pediment Austin NV’s confidential or proprietary business, financial or investment plans or reports not directly relating to the Exploration and Development Work. Austin NV shall promptly communicate to Pediment any extraordinary results obtained from operations upon receipt of the results and shall prepare and deliver to Pediment reports on operations that have been conducted, but that have not previously been reported upon promptly after being requested to do so by Pediment.

11

12.    Payment of Taxes. Austin NV shall pay all taxes assessed against any personal property which it may place on the Property. Austin NV may take such action as it deems proper to obtain a reduction or refund of taxes paid or payable by it. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Pediment shall pay all other taxes assessed against the Property, including all taxes assessed or payable at the time of the execution of this Agreement.

13.    Indemnification and Insurance.

13.1        Austin NV shall defend, indemnify and save harmless Pediment against and from any damage, loss or liability by reason of injury to person or damage to property as the result of its operations during the term of this Agreement. Austin NV’s accrued obligations under this Section shall survive termination of this Agreement and exercise of its option to enter the Mining Venture Agreement. Austin NV shall keep the Property free of all liens and encumbrances arising from its obligations provided, however, that Austin NV may contest the validity of any lien on the Property, and the existence of any such lien shall not be deemed a default under this Agreement if contested by Austin NV, unless the lien is finally adjudicated to be valid and is not discharged by Austin NV.

13.2        Austin NV shall provide, maintain and keep in force comprehensive all risk, public liability insurance against claims for personal injury, including, without limitation, bodily injury, death or property damage occurring on, in or about the Property, such insurance to afford immediate minimum protection to a limit of not less than Two Million Dollars U.S. currency ($2,000,000.00US) with respect to personal injury or death to any one or more persons or damage to property. Austin NV shall on Pediment's request furnish to Pediment a certificate of all policies of required insurance which shall identify Pediment as a named or additional insured. Each policy shall contain a provision that the policy will not be cancelled or materially amended, which terms shall include any reduction in the scope or limits of coverage, without at least fifteen (15) days' prior written notice to Pediment. If Austin NV fails to provide, maintain, keep in force or deliver and furnish to Pediment the policies of insurance required under this Section, Pediment may, but is not obligated to, procure such insurance or single-interest insurance for such risks covering Pediment's interest and Austin NV shall promptly reimburse Pediment for all costs incurred by Pediment to obtain the insurance.

14.    Termination by Austin NV. Austin NV may terminate this Agreement at any time after Austin NV has completed the Earn-In Obligation which Austin NV is obligated to perform on or before September 1, 2021. If Austin NV terminates this Agreement, except by its election to enter the Joint Venture as provided in ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ shall perform the following obligations:

14.1       Austin NV shall perform all accrued obligations and shall make all payments and take all other actions necessary, including payment of the Federal annual mining claim maintenance fees which accrue or become due within sixty (60) days after Austin NV’s delivery of notice to Pediment, and recording of the notices of intent to hold and affidavits of payment of the Federal annual mining claim maintenance fees in accordance with Nevada law, on or before the times described in this Agreement necessary to ensure that without any action by Pediment the Property and the Underlying Agreements shall be in good standing on the date of termination.

14.2       Austin NV shall deliver to Pediment copies of any and all title, geological, metallurgical, exploration, assay and engineering reports and data pertaining to the Property or related to operations (in paper or digital form), and splits of mineral samples, drill cuttings, and drill cores, which have not been previously delivered to Pediment.

12

14.3       Austin NV shall, at Austin NV's sole expense, perform and secure the performance of all reclamation and remediation relating to Austin NV’s operations on the Property during the term of this Agreement as required by all applicable laws and regulations.

14.4       Austin NV shall remove all of its materials, supplies and equipment from the Property; provided, however, that Pediment may retain or, at Austin NV’s cost, dispose of any such materials, supplies or equipment not removed from the Property within ninety (90) days of Austin NV’s receipt of Pediment’s request.

14.5       Austin NV shall perform all obligations of Austin NV which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement.

15.    Termination by Pediment. If Austin NV defaults in any of its obligations, Pediment may give Austin NV written notice and specify the default or defaults. If within thirty (30) days, or fifteen (15) days in the event of a payment default, Austin NV has not cured such default or, with respect to defaults not capable of being cured in thirty (30) days, and in the case of a payment default within fifteen (15) days, begun and diligently pursued efforts to cure such default, Pediment may terminate this Agreement by written notice to Austin NV. If Austin NV disputes that any default has occurred, the matter shall be determined by litigation in a court of competent jurisdiction, and if the court finds Austin NV is in default, Austin NV shall have a reasonable time (which in any case shall not be less than thirty (30) days, and in the case of a payment default, fifteen (15) days, from receipt of notice of the judgment or order) to cure such default, and if so cured, Pediment shall have no right to terminate this Agreement by reason of such default.

16.    Force Majeure. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the term of this Agreement shall be extended by the duration of any event of force majeure, and the obligations of Austin NV under this Agreement, except Austin NV’s obligation to pay the costs of maintaining the condition of and title to the Property, shall be suspended and Austin NV shall not be deemed in default or liable for damages or other remedies while Austin NV is prevented from compliance with its obligations by force majeure. If a force majeure event prevents Austin NV’s performance of its annual Earn-In or Additional Earn-In Obligations, the time for Austin NV’s performance of such annual Earn-In or Additional Earn-In Obligations shall be extended by the duration of the force majeure event. The time for performance of Austin NV’s performance of its subsequent annual Earn-In or Additional Earn-In Obligations shall be extended for the period equal to the duration of each force majeure event. For purposes of this Agreement, force majeure shall include, but not be limited to, acts of God, the elements, an escalation in the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, riots, acts or failure to act on the part of federal or state agencies or courts, inability to secure materials or to obtain access to the Property, strikes, lockouts, damage to, destruction or unavoidable shutdown of necessary facilities, or any other matters (whether or not similar to those above mentioned) beyond Austin NV's reasonable control; provided, however, that force majeure shall not include financial inability to perform, and provided further that settlement of strikes or lockouts shall be entirely within the discretion of Austin NV. Austin NV shall promptly notify Pediment of the occurrence of any force majeure event and of the cessation of the force majeure event.

17.    Effect of Termination. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, in case of termination of this Agreement under its terms or for any cause other than as a consequence of Austin NV and Pediment’s execution of the Mining Venture Agreement, Austin NV shall have no further liability or obligation, except for those which have accrued at the date of termination, those specified in Section 13 concerning indemnification, and those described in Section 14.

13

18.       Change in Ownership of Property. Changes in the ownership of the Property occurring after execution of this Agreement shall not be binding upon Austin NV until it receives written notice of such change, together with a copy of the recorded document which reflects such change. No change or division in the ownership of the Property shall operate to enlarge the obligations or diminish the rights of Austin NV under this Agreement.

19.       Notice. Any notices required or authorized to be given by this Agreement shall be in written form. Any notices required or authorized to be given by this Agreement may be sent by registered or certified delivery, postage prepaid and return receipt requested, addressed to the proper party at the following address or such address as the party shall have designated to the other parties in accordance with this Section. Any notice required or authorized to be delivered by this Agreement shall be deemed to have been sufficiently delivered or served in written form if: (a) mailed in accordance with this Section; (b) personally delivered to the proper party; or (c) delivered by telex, telegraph, facsimile or other electronic transmission and actually received by such party. Delivery of notice shall be effective on the first business day after the party deposits the notice for mailing or delivers the notice by the other means authorized in this Section, as applicable.

Exhibit B

Net Profits Interest Definition and Calculation

1.       Income and Expenses. Net Profits shall be calculated by deducting from the gross revenues received (or deemed to be received) from the sale (or deemed sale) of minerals, the costs and expenses reasonably incurred in the processing, production, sale and transportation of minerals, including without limitation:

1.1       All costs (including the full amount of capital expenditures) and expenses of installing, replacing, expanding, modifying, altering or changing from time to time any mining facilities. Costs and expenses of improvements (such as haulage ways or mill facilities) that are also used in connection with workings other than the Property shall be charged to the Property only in the proportion that their use in connection with the Property bears to their total use.

1.2       Ad valorem real property taxes, and all taxes, other than income taxes, applicable to the acquisition, exploration, development, and mining of the Property, including without limitation all mining taxes, sales taxes, severance taxes, federal annual mining claim rental fees, royalties, license fees and governmental levies of a similar nature.

1.3       All expenses incurred relative to the marketing and sale of minerals, including an allowance for commissions at rates which are normal and customary in the industry.

1.4       All amounts payable to the operator of the Property during mining pursuant to any applicable operating or similar agreement in force with respect to mining.

1.5       Reclamation costs and the costs of establishment of a fund or acquisition of a surety bond to secure performance of reclamation.

1.6       All costs, obligations, liabilities and expenses incurred by the operator in connection with or for the benefit of the Property and all operations including, without limitation, the costs of salaries and wages including actual labor overhead expenses (for fringe benefits and the like) of all employees of the operator engaged directly in connection with or for the benefit of the Property and all operations.

1.7       All expenditures (including the full amount of capital expenditures) for exploration, development, or mining of the Property, to the extent not otherwise described.

1.8       Costs and expenses for the use of machinery, equipment and supplies, including inventory, required for acquisition, exploration, development, mining and marketing activities; provided, however, that if the operator of the Property uses its own equipment, the charges shall be no greater than on terms available from third parties in the vicinity of the Property.

1.9       Travel expenses and expenses of transportation of employees, material, equipment and supplies necessary or convenient for the conduct of acquisition, exploration, development, mining and marketing activities.

17

1.10       All payments to contractors, including payments for work on acquisition, exploration, development, mining and marketing activities.

1.11       Costs of testing and analyses and any other costs incurred to determine the quality and quantity of minerals.

1.12       Costs incurred in preparation and acquisition of environmental permits necessary to commence or complete the acquisition, exploration, development, mining and marketing activities.

1.13       Costs and expenses of maintenance of the Property.

1.14       Costs and expenses of preparation of a feasibility study.

1.15       The costs of any insurance premium or performance bonds required by law.

1.16       All costs incurred for title curative work on, or for the benefit of, the Property.

1.17       Allowance for overhead, general and administrative expenses and management fees.

1.18       Interest on monies borrowed or advanced for the foregoing costs and expenses, at the actual borrowing rate, negotiated at arm’s length, to the extent gross revenues sufficient to recover such expenditures have not been realized.

It is intended that the operator of the Property shall recoup from net cash flow all contributions for exploration, development, mining, and marketing minerals before any Net Profits are distributed to any person holding a Net Profits interest. No deduction shall be made for income taxes. Depreciation, amortization or depletion shall not be charged or deducted, inasmuch as the cost of assets which would generally give rise to such charges is directly recoverable to the full extent of their cost pursuant to this provision. If in any period any negative net cash flow is incurred, then the amount of the negative net cash flow shall be considered as and be included with outstanding costs and expenses and carried forward in determining Net Profits for subsequent periods. If minerals are processed by the operator of the Property, or are sold to an affiliate of the operator, then, for purposes of calculating Net Profits, such minerals shall be deemed to have been sold at a price equal to the greater of fair market value to arm's length purchasers FOB the concentrator for the Property or actual price of sale to the affiliate, and Net Profits relative thereto shall be calculated without reference to any profits or losses attributable to smelting or refining.

2.       Payment of Net Profits. Payments of Net Profits shall commence in the calendar quarter next following the calendar quarter in which Net Profits are first realized, and shall be made forty-five (45) days following the end of each calendar quarter during which Net Profits are realized, and shall be subject to adjustment, if required, at the end of each calendar year. The recipient of such Net Profits payments shall have the right to audit such payments once annually at its cost.

3.       Credits for Recoupment. The operator shall deduct from any payments of Net Profits any and all amounts, costs or expenditures which the operator is entitled to credit or recoup from the holder of a Net Profits Interest pursuant to the Agreement of which this Net Profits Calculation is a part.
