For the purposes of the transfer of ownership rights over the Properties, regulated in this Master Agreement and exhibits hereof, the term “Properties” shall not include the aliquots of concessions or the concessions over which the right of first refusal or the right of revocation have already been exercised by the co-owners of DUVAZ or by their shareholders in the Limited Liability Mining Companies.

In view of the foregoing, the parties adopt all the covenants mentioned in the following Section, which shall be embodied in supplementary documents, according to the form agreements attached hereto as exhibits.
COVENANTS
ONE: Due diligence
1.1 Scope of Due Diligence. In order for MPC to evaluate the direct or indirect acquisition of the Properties outlined in Exhibit A and Exhibit B hereto, the Agents undertake to let MPC carry out due diligence:
(i) On the legal and environmental status of the Properties outlined in Exhibit A and Exhibit B;
(ii) On labour issues related to DUVAZ;
(iii) On the legal situation of Company B;
(iv) On the environmental matters related to the exploitation of the Properties detailed in Exhibit A and Exhibit B;
2
(v) On any document used to verify the origin, veracity and accuracy of the information contained in the exhibits, which form an integral part of this Master Agreement.
The parties hereto expressly agree that the execution of due diligence shall not entitle MPC to perform any type of analysis, assessment or exploration regarding the mining potential of the Properties.
1.2 Confidentiality Agreement. Any and all information furnished to MPC by virtue of this Master Agreement and the due diligence shall be subject to the confidentiality agreement, which shall be governed by the provisions set forth in Article 8 herein.
1.3 Term and delivery of documentation. The due diligence period shall not exceed six (6) months as from the execution hereof. During this period, MPC shall have access to the documentation related to the five (5) issues that constitute the scope of the due diligence. For a better development of due diligence, the Agents and MPC agree to set up a work committee consisting of four (4) members in order to coordinate all documents required by MPC and the visits that MPC may need to make to the operating areas of the Properties. One (1) of the members of such committee shall be appointed by the Agents and another one by DUVAZ. The other two (2) members shall be designated by MPC. This committee shall meet every seven (7) days or as required by the circumstances, at the discretion of either of the parties.
It is hereby understood between the parties that, notwithstanding the creation of the aforementioned committee, the Agents and DUVAZ expressly assume the obligation to provide any information in their possession that may be required, in connection with the five (5) issues that constitute the scope of the due diligence, by MPC or any third party contracted by MPC to take part in the preparation of the due diligence report.
In the case of information that is not in the possession of DUVAZ or the Agents, or that may or must be exclusively obtained by them, DUVAZ and the Agents undertake to make every effort to obtain and provide such information.
TWO: Transfer of the shares of Company B
2.1 Incorporation of a new company. Immediately following the execution of this Master Agreement, the Class A Shareholders of Company B and MPC undertake to file the respective proceedings required to incorporate a new company (free of any type of liabilities or contingencies) in accordance with the model for preliminary articles of incorporation of a company attached hereto as Exhibit M. This new company shall be hereinafter referred to as “Company B”.
The capital stock of Company B shall amount to S/.10,000 (Ten Thousand Nuevos Soles), represented by: (i) 9,900 Class “A” shares with a face value of S/. 1 (One Nuevo Sol) each, which shall account for 90% of the capital stock of
3
Company B; and (ii) 100 Class “B” shares with a value of S/. 1 (One Nuevo Sol) each, which shall account for 1% of the capital stock of Company B.
As established in the Articles of Incorporation, which form an integral part of the preliminary instrument of incorporation of a company, attached hereto as Exhibit M, in all cases the adoption of agreements by the Shareholders’ Meeting of Company B requires the attendance and favourable vote of 100% of the Class B shares. In order to avoid any doubt, the parties hereby certify that should the Shareholders’ Meeting adopt a resolution without the favourable vote of 100% of the Class “B” shares, said resolution shall be null and void
2.2 Corporate reorganization. The Agents undertake to approve, in the Shareholders’ Meeting of DUVAZ, a corporate reorganization agreement whereby an equity block (made up of the mining concessions, surface rights and other assets detailed in Exhibit B, as well as the liabilities of DUVAZ detailed in Exhibit C) to be contributed to Company B shall be separated. In any case, the equity block transferred to Company B may represent or generate in Company B losses exceeding fifty percent (50%) of the capital stock of Company B at the time of the corporate reorganization. If necessary, Duvaz shall carry out the revaluation of the Properties detailed in Exhibit B for the purposes of the corporate reorganization. The following provisions shall govern this corporate reorganization:
(a) Transfer of DUVAZ’s Properties outlined in Exhibit B. MPC represents that it is aware that DUVAZ is not the exclusive owner of some of the Properties listed in Exhibit B hereto. In this understanding, MPC acknowledges that:
(i) The concession “Xxxxxxx” (according to the list of concessions attached hereto as Exhibit B) is owned by Xxxxxxx de Huancayo, a Limited Liability Mining Company, the share interests of which are held by DUVAZ (50%) and VOLCAN COMPAÑIA MINERA S.A.A. (50%). In this regard, the transfer of the share interests in favour of Company B as a result of the corporate reorganization shall be subject to the right of first refusal in favour of VOLCAN COMPAÑIA MINERA S.A.A..
(ii) The concession “La Demócrata” (according to the list of concessions attached hereto as Exhibit B) is jointly owned by DUVAZ (33.33%) and SUCESIÓN XXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX (66.66%). In this regard, the transfer of the ideal shares in said co-owned mining concession in favour of Company B as a result of the corporate reorganization shall be subject to a right of revocation in favour of SUCESIÓN XXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX.
(iii) The concession “Xxxxx Celina” (according to the list of concessions attached hereto as Exhibit B) is jointly owned by
4
DUVAZ (33.33%) and SUCESIÓN XXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX (33.33%) and SUCESIÓN XXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXX (33.33%). In this regard, the transfer of the ideal shares in said co-owned mining concession in favour of Company B as a result of the corporate reorganization shall be subject to a right of revocation in favour of SUCESIÓN XXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX and SUCESIÓN XXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXX.
(iv) The concession “Xxxxx” (according to the list of concessions attached hereto as Exhibit B) is owned by SOCIEDAD MINERA DE RESPONSABILIDAD LIMITADA XXXXXX XXXXX DE HUANCAYO, the share interests of which are held by DUVAZ (98%) and XXXX XXXXX & SONS (2%). In this regard, the transfer of the share interests in favour of Company B as a result of the corporate reorganization shall be subject to the right of first refusal in favour of XXXX XXXXX & SONS.
Within a period of ninety (90) days following the execution of this Master Agreement, DUVAZ and the Agents must notify their shareholders in the Limited Liability Mining Companies referred to in points (i) and (iv) above of their intention to transfer the shares of DUVAZ in said companies. In the case of the co-owned properties mentioned in the preceding points (ii) and (iii), and within the same ninety (90) day-term, DUVAZ must notify its co-owners of the transfer of their aliquots. The texts of such communications must be jointly approved by DUVAZ and MPC. Furthermore, DUVAZ and the Agents undertake to inform MPC of the answers received by DUVAZ from their shareholders and co-owners.
If, despite the best efforts of MPC and DUVAZ, the permission required to formalize the transfer of said assets cannot be obtained, MPC shall be entitled to adjust the value of the shares of Company B by an amount equivalent to the value of the assets not transferred, pursuant to the terms established in Clause 6 of the stock purchase agreement referred to in Point 2.3 hereof.
(b) Transfer of DUVAZ’s liabilities detailed in Exhibit C. The parties hereby agree that DUVAZ must transfer the liabilities listed in Exhibit C hereof to Company B, for which purpose MPC (in its capacity as creditor of such credits) hereby gives its consent to said assignments, or as relevant, shall cause the holders of such liabilities to give their consent to said transfers once each and every one of the Properties outlined in Exhibit B have been transferred, as a result of the corporate reorganization, to Company B, and once these have also been registered in the name of Company B, in the case of the mining concessions.
5
Furthermore, the parties agree that DUVAZ will remain as the joint obliged party of Company B for the payment of the liabilities outlined in Exhibit C, as from the effective date of transfer of the position of debtor in favour of Company B and until such time that the Option Agreement is registered in the filing entries of the Properties outlined in Exhibit A, with the exception of those outlined in point 3.1 (a1) of this Master Agreement, and that the Properties described in Exhibit B are effectively registered in the name of Company B, except for those outlined in point 2.2 (a) herein. The parties agree that the joint obligation of DUVAZ must be recorded in the title or titles whereby the position of debtor is transferred to Company B.
2.3 Stock Purchase Agreement. The Class A Shareholders of Company B and MPC hereby undertake to execute a stock purchase agreement (according to the form agreement attached hereto as Exhibit D), whereby the Class A Shareholders of Company B shall undertake to transfer to MPC and MPC shall undertake to purchase from the Class A Shareholders of Company B, 100% of the Class A shares issued by Company B (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”). The agreement set forth in this Point 2.3 qualifies as a commitment to enter into a contract pursuant to the provisions of Section 1414 of the Civil Code. This commitment to enter into a contract shall be governed by the following provisions:
(a) Term of the commitment to enter into a contract. This commitment to enter into a contract shall be valid for a maximum term of two hundred and ten (210) days counted as from the execution hereof.
(b) Timing for the execution of the Stock Purchase Agreement. The Stock Purchase Agreement shall be executed by MPC and the Class A Shareholders of Company B on the same date of execution as that of the Option Agreement referred to in Point 3.1 of Article 3 hereof.
(c) Security Deposit with Revocation Option. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 1480 of the Civil Code, MPC shall pay the Class A Shareholders of Company B the amount of US$1,000,000 (One Million US Dollars) as a security deposit with revocation option for the execution of the Stock Purchase Agreement. Said security deposit shall be delivered to the Class A Shareholders of Company B on the following occasions:
(i) US$500,000 (Five Hundred Thousand US Dollars) on the date of execution of this Master Agreement; and
(ii) US$500,000 (Five Hundred Thousand US Dollars) whose payment obligation by MPC shall arise upon occurrence of any of the following events, whichever occurs first: (A) If, in the unanimous opinion of the Committee referred to in Point 1.3 hereof, DUVAZ has provided all the pertinent information in its
6
possession that was requested by MPC or any of the individuals or legal entities acting on the behalf of MPC for the preparation of the due diligence report; or (B) if the term of six (6) months, counted as from the execution hereof, has expired; or (C) if, prior to the expiry of the six (6) month term, MPC notifies DUVAZ and the Agents in writing that the due diligence has concluded and with it, their intention not to sign the Stock Purchase Agreement, or the option agreement referred to in point 3.1 (a) hereto.
In the assumptions established in paragraphs (A) and (B), the parties agree that the payment of this sum which amounts to US$500,000 (Five Hundred Thousand US Dollars) must be made on the pertinent occasions indicated in the preceding paragraph.
On the other hand, in the assumption established in paragraph (C), the provisions set forth in point 3.1(c) of Clause Three shall prevail.
Should MPC fail to execute the Stock Purchase Agreement within the term stipulated in Point 2.3 (a) hereof, MPC shall forfeit the security deposit delivered to the Class A Shareholders of Company B. The Class A Shareholders of Company B shall return the security deposit to MPC only in those cases where there is proven gross negligence or bad faith on the part of the Agents or DUVAZ in providing the information in their possession that was duly requested by MPC or any individual or legal entity acting on its behalf for the preparation of the due diligence report.
It is hereby understood that, in that event, DUVAZ and the Agents shall assume the obligation to refund all paid amounts jointly and severally with the Class A Shareholders of Company B, and without the benefit of excussio.
In accordance with Section 1482 of the Civil Code, the Class A Shareholders of Company B waive their right of revocation. Consequently, the Class A Shareholders of Company B are obliged to execute the Stock Purchase Agreement and are prohibited from revoking its execution.
(d) Transfer of Class “B” shares: The parties hereto agree that in the case that MPC decides not to execute the Stock Purchase Agreement and, consequently, not to execute the option agreement referred to in Article 3 hereof, MPC shall automatically transfer to the Class A Shareholders of Company B, free of charge and in equal parts, the 100 Class B shares, representing 1% of the capital stock of Company B.
7
(e) Management of Company B during the validity of the commitment to enter into a contract. As from the execution hereof and during the validity of the commitment to enter into a contract, the Agents and the Class A Shareholders of Company B undertake to ensure that the corporate bodies of Company B will not adopt any type of decision or resolution that may affect any of the covenants contained herein or in the Stock Purchase Agreement, or fail to adopt the decisions proposed by MPC, pursuant to the provisions of the Stock Purchase Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit D. Pursuant to the provisions established by the Corporate Bylaws, which form an integral part of the preliminary articles of incorporation of the company, attached hereto as Exhibit M, the adoption of resolutions by the Shareholders’ Meeting in all cases requires the attendance and the favourable vote of 100% of the Class B shares. In order to avoid any doubt, the parties hereby certify that should the Shareholders’ Meeting adopt a resolution without the favourable vote of 100% of the Class B shares, said resolution shall be null and void.
(f) Management of the Properties listed in Exhibit B. From the execution hereof until the final agreement for the transfer of the Properties outlined in Exhibit A, attached hereto, as a result of the Option Agreement referred to in Article 3 hereto, attached herewith as Appendix B of Exhibit E of this Master Agreement (the Transfer Agreement), the Agents and the Class A Shareholders of Company B shall ensure that (i) DUVAZ does not carry out any act of disposition of the Properties to be contributed to Company B; and that (ii) DUVAZ does not execute any exploration or exploitation works in the Properties to be contributed to Company B.
2.4 Pledge on the Class A shares issued by Company B. Until the price for the transfer of the Class A shares issued by Company B in favour of MPC is paid in full, the parties hereto establish that said shares shall be subject to a right of pledge in favour of the Class A Shareholders of Company B, who shall exercise the political and economic rights corresponding to such shares.
Regardless of whether the Class A Shareholders of Company B exercise the political and economic rights corresponding to the shares issued by Company B, the Class A Shareholders of Company B may not unreasonably refuse to adopt or have the corporate bodies of Company B adopt the resolutions and decisions proposed by MPC.
In order to avoid any doubt, the Class A Shareholders of Company B are obliged to allow MPC to develop a program of mining explorations in the concessions transferred directly or indirectly to Company B after the execution of the Stock Purchase Agreement.
Duvaz, the Agents and the Class A Shareholders of Company B shall grant all the facilities required by MPC in order to develop the exploration activities MPC
8
deems necessary. They shall adopt the corporate covenants necessary for the execution of such explorations and request the pertinent authorizations for Company B or Duvaz or for the Class A Shareholders of Company B, depending on the case.
THREE: Option
3.1 Execution of the Option Agreement and exercise of the option
(a) Timing for the execution of the Option Agreement. Once the six (6) month term for the performance of the due diligence has expired, MPC shall have the right, during the following thirty (30) days, to enter into an option agreement with DUVAZ for the purchase of the Properties detailed in Exhibit A (the “Option Agreement”). The Option Agreement shall be governed by the terms and conditions established in the form agreement attached hereto as Exhibit E.
Within the aforementioned term of thirty (30) days, DUVAZ is obliged to execute the Option Agreement on the date fixed by MPC, which must be communicated within a period of no less than ten (10) business days prior to the scheduled date for the execution of the Option Agreement. In the case that DUVAZ fails to execute the Option Agreement within said term, the Class A Shareholders of Company B undertake to return to MPC, in penalty, double the sum of the security deposit paid in accordance with point 2.3 (c) hereto. Such penalty shall be paid within a term not exceeding thirty (30) days after notification of the written request of MPC to make such payment. Failure to pay the penalty within the stipulated term shall give rise to a penalty equivalent to 0.1% of the amount owed for the period of time elapsed from the expiration of the thirty (30) day term and the effective date of payment. DUVAZ and the Agents shall assume this obligation jointly and severally.
(a1) Properties of DUVAZ outlined in Exhibit A. MPC represents that it is aware that DUVAZ does not exclusively own some of the Properties outlined in Exhibit A hereof. In this understanding, MPC acknowledges that:
(i) The concession “Calabaza” (according to the list of concessions attached hereto as Appendix A to this Option Agreement) is co-owned by DUVAZ (33.33%) and SUCESIÓN XXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX (66.66%). In this regard, should MPC decide to exercise the Option, the transfer of the ideal shares in said co-owned mining concession shall be subject to a right of revocation in favour of SUCESIÓN XXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX.
(ii) The concession “Grancero” (according to the list of concessions attached hereto as Appendix A to this Option Agreement) is owned by GRANCERO DE HUANCAYO, a Limited Liability
9
Mining Company, in which DUVAZ holds a share of 33.33% and SUCESIÓN XXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX a share of 66.66%. In this regard, should MPC decide to exercise the Option, the transfer of the ideal shares in said co-owned mining concession shall be subject to the right of first refusal in favour of SUCESIÓN XXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX.
(iii) The concession “Lola” (according to the list of concessions attached hereto as Appendix A to this Option Agreement) is owned by GRANCERO DE HUANCAYO, a Limited Liability Mining Company, in which DUVAZ holds a share of 33.33% and SUCESIÓN XXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX a share of 66.66%. In this regard, should MPC decide to exercise the Option, the transfer of the ideal shares in said co-owned mining concession shall be subject to the right of first refusal in favour of SUCESIÓN XXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX.
(iv) The concession “Pobre Diablo” (according to the list of concessions attached hereto as Appendix A to this Option Agreement) is owned by POBRE DIABLO DE HUANCAYO, a Limited Liability Mining Company, in which DUVAZ holds a share of 20%, SUCESIÓN XXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX a share of 40%, Xx. Xxxxxx XXXXXXXXXX and Xxxxxxx XXXXXX a share of 20% each, respectively. In this regard, should MPC decide to exercise the Option, the transfer of the ideal shares in said mining concession shall be subject to the right of first refusal in favour of SUCESIÓN XXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX, Xx. Xxxxxx XXXXXXXXXX and Xx. Xxxxxxx XXXXXX.
Within a period of ninety (90) days following the execution of this Master Agreement, DUVAZ and the Agents, must notify their shareholders in the Limited Liability Mining Companies referred to in points (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, of their intention to transfer the shares of DUVAZ in said companies. In the case of the co-owned properties mentioned in the preceding point (i), and within the same ninety (90) day-term, DUVAZ must notify its co-owners of the transfer of their aliquots. The texts of such communications must be jointly approved by DUVAZ and MPC. Furthermore, DUVAZ and the Agents undertake to inform MPC of the answers received by DUVAZ from their shareholders and co-owners.
DUVAZ and the Agents undertake to make every effort to obtain the necessary permission in order to formalize the transfer of DUVAZ’s assets described in Items (i) to (iv) above.
(b) Payments on the date of execution and registration of the Option Agreement. As from the time MPC and DUVAZ execute the Option Agreement and it is registered in the filing entries of all the Properties subject matter of the option, MPC shall be obliged to deliver to DUVAZ’s
10
creditors, at the expense of DUVAZ and with no obligation to reimburse DUVAZ, the funds required by DUVAZ to fulfill the obligations detailed in Exhibit F hereto in a timely manner, as described hereinbelow. Similarly, the obligation of MPC to reimburse DUVAZ for the payments that DUVAZ may make on the obligations outlined in Exhibit F-1 (as described herein below) shall also be produced on the date on which MPC and DUVAZ sign the Option Agreement and it is registered in all the Properties subject matter of the option. It is hereby certified that the first month listed in the Schedule of Payments, attached hereto as Exhibit F, must be understood as the first month beginning upon the expiry of the two-hundred and ten (210) day-term referred to in point 3.1(a), Article 3 hereto.
The parties acknowledge that from the date of execution of the Master Agreement until before the registration of the Option Agreement in each one of the filing entries of the Properties detailed in Exhibit A hereto, DUVAZ may be obliged by a court order or administrative resolution filed with the last hierarchical instance, other than a transaction (unless otherwise expressly authorized in writing by MPC), to pay some of the obligations established in Exhibit F. In the event of the existence of a court order, arbitration award, or administrative resolution filed with the last hierarchical instance as of the date of this Master Agreement imposing a payment obligation upon DUVAZ and which DUVAZ has failed to pay, DUVAZ will require the consent of MPC in order to make said payment. In the event of the existence of an arbitration award ordered between the date of execution of the Master Agreement and until before the registration of the Option Agreement in the filing entries of the Properties outlined in Exhibit A, imposing a payment obligation upon DUVAZ, DUVAZ will also require the consent of MPC in order to make such a payment.
Furthermore, the parties agree that after the execution of the Master Agreement and until before the registration of the Option Agreement in each of the filing entries of the Properties outlined in Exhibit A hereto, DUVAZ may pay those obligations contained in Exhibit F-1 without requiring the consent of MPC. It is hereby certified that the obligations mentioned in Exhibit F-1 are part of the sum of US$15,985,268 (Fifteen Million Nine Hundred Eighty-Five Thousand Two Hundred and Sixty-Eight US Dollars) that makes up the total obligations outlined in Exhibit F, for which reason the reimbursement by MPC of the payments made by DUVAZ for the obligations outlined in Exhibit F-1 will in no case imply further payment obligations other than those expressly provided for in the Schedule of Payments, attached hereto as Exhibit F.
MPC expressly undertakes to reimburse DUVAZ for all sums of money assumed by DUVAZ according to the preceding paragraphs and which, according to the Schedule of Payments contained in Exhibit F, should be assumed by MPC. For such purpose, within a period of three (3) days
11
following the date of registration of the Option Agreement in each one of the filing entries of the Properties detailed in Exhibit A hereto, DUVAZ must inform MPC of those payments it may have made, which must be accredited with the corresponding receipts. Within a term of five (5) days following the receipt of said communication, MPC must reimburse DUVAZ for all the obligations assumed by DUVAZ in the terms indicated in the preceding paragraphs. Without prejudice to the foregoing, the parties clarify that under no circumstances shall the reimbursement obligations referred to in this paragraph entail greater obligations for MPC than those established in Exhibit F hereto. Thus, the amount reimbursed by MPC in favour of DUVAZ must be discounted from the amounts that MPC is obliged to pay during the first year, in accordance with Exhibit F.
Furthermore, after having registered the Option Agreement in each one of the filing entries of the Properties outlined in Exhibit A hereto, MPC undertakes to reimburse DUVAZ for any payment included in Exhibit F not made by MPC. This reimbursement must be made within a period of no more than five (5) calendar days as from the date on which DUVAZ requests said payment. Failure to comply with the reimbursement within the stipulated term shall give rise to a daily penalty equivalent to 0.1% of the amount due for the period of time between the expiration of the thirty (30)-day term and the effective date of reimbursement.
It is hereby certified that the obligation of MPC to provide the necessary funds to cover the obligations detailed in Exhibit F shall be earmarked as part of the payment for transfer of the Properties outlined in Exhibit A, should MPC decide to exercise the option. Consequently, the obligation of MPC to make such payments shall continue to have full force and effect even if MPC decides not to exercise the option, in which case the payments effected by MPC up to that moment in fulfillment of Exhibit F, and those that it must continue to make for the same reason, shall be considered a penalty in favour of DUVAZ.
MPC shall only be released from its obligation to furnish the funds indicated in Exhibit F if: (i) MPC has decided not to exercise the option and, additionally, if (ii) the Stock Purchase Agreement has been terminated. In order to avoid any doubts, (A) MPC shall only be released from its obligation to make those payments not yet due according to the Schedule of Payments contained in Exhibit F, and (B) MPC shall not be entitled to claim any sum of money from DUVAZ for the funds previously provided according to the schedule contained in Exhibit F and which shall be considered a penalty in favour of DUVAZ.
(c) Consequences of the failure to execute the Option Agreement. Should MPC decide not to execute the Option Agreement prior to the expiry of the term referred to in the first paragraph of item (a) of this Article: (i) MPC may not execute the Stock Purchase Agreement; (ii) the
12
100 Class “B” shares representing 1% of the capital stock of Company B shall be automatically transferred to the Class A Shareholders of Company B, free of charge; and (iii) DUVAZ and the Agents shall be automatically granted an option for either of them to purchase all the credit rights held by MPC before DUVAZ or before Company B, at the discount value paid by MPC to acquire such rights. The parties agree that, in this case, MPC must have previously complied with each one of its obligations (including any outstanding obligation) assumed under the agreements executed to acquire the ownership of said credit rights. If both DUVAZ and the Agents decide to exercise the option right, then those communicating their decision shall have the right to acquire ownership of the credit rights referred to in this paragraph in equal parts.
In order to exercise the option referred to in the foregoing paragraph, the Agents and DUVAZ shall have a term of fifteen (15) days, during which either of them may exercise the option granted by MPC to acquire the ownership of the aforementioned credit rights, forwarding a written communication to MPC indicating their intention to exercise the right of option. The parties agree that should DUVAZ or the Agents decide to exercise the option within this term, MPC shall be obliged to sign the Agreement for the Transfer of Credits, attached hereto as Exhibit N, within a period of five (5) days following the date of the communication to MPC. To that effect, whoever exercises the option must also indicate in the same communication in which it represents its intention to exercise the option, the place, in the city of Lima, date and time (within the aforementioned term) on which the parties must sign said Agreement. The parties agree that the option may only be exercised on the total number of credit rights. In order to avoid any doubts, the Agents or DUVAZ may not exercise the option on part of said credit rights and may only do so on the total number of credit rights.
Should the Agents be the only ones to exercise the option, they must necessarily do so jointly by signing the same communication and becoming jointly responsible for the fulfillment of the obligations set forth in the Agreement for the Transfer of Credits, the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit N.
On the date of execution of the Agreement for the Transfer of Credits, the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit N, the Agents or DUVAZ, as relevant, must pay MPC a sum of US$1,000,000 (One Million US Dollars) as consideration for the purchase of the ownership of the credit rights. The balance amounting to a sum of US$2,050,000 (Two Million Fifty Thousand US Dollars) shall be paid in three (3) annual instalments with no interest accrued in favour of MPC; the first of these instalments shall be paid in the year following the execution of the Agreement for the Transfer of Credits.
13
The parties agree that only in the assumption contained in the last paragraph of Point 2.3(c)(ii) of Article 2, if the Agents or DUVAZ decide to exercise the option, the sum of US$500,000 (Five Hundred Thousand US Dollars) referred to in point 2.3(c)(ii) of Article 2 shall be imputed as part of the payment for the purchase of the ownership of the credit rights. The Class A Shareholders of Company B expressly endorse this provision.
Additionally, in the assumption outlined in the preceding paragraph, on the date of execution of the Agreement for the Transfer of Credits, the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit N, the Agents or DUVAZ, as relevant, must pay MPC a sum of US$500,000 (Five Hundred Thousand US Dollars) as a consideration for the purchase of the ownership of the credit rights. The balance amounting to a sum of US$2,050,000 (Two Million Fifty Thousand US Dollars) shall be paid in three (3) annual instalments, two (2) of US$683,333.33 (Six Hundred Thirty-Three Thousand Three Hundred Thirty-Three and 33/100 US Dollars), and one (1) of US$683,333.34 (Six Hundred Thirty-Three Thousand Three Hundred Thirty-Three and 34/100 US Dollars), with no interest in favour of MPC. The first of these instalments shall be paid upon the expiry of the one (1) year term from the execution of the Agreement for the Transfer of Credits.
If in the assumption outlined in the last paragraph of point 2.3 (c) (ii) of Article 2, the Agents or DUVAZ decide not to exercise the option to purchase the ownership of the credit rights, the amount of US$500,000 (Five Hundred Thousand US Dollars) referred to in point 2.3 (c) (ii) of Article 2 must be paid by MPC to the Class A Shareholders of Company B, on the date on which MPC is notified by the Agents or DUVAZ of their intention not to sign the Agreement for the Transfer of Credits.
(d) Compensation for exercising the option. Should MPC decide to exercise the option set forth in the Option Agreement, MPC (or any successor) shall pay DUVAZ a royalty on the production extracted from the mining concessions listed in Exhibit A, pursuant to the terms of the agreement attached hereto as Exhibit H. Furthermore, should MPC decide to exercise the option set forth in the Option Agreement prior to the expiry of the term, the Class A Shareholders of Company B may require and MPC must pay the Class A Shareholders of Company B the full balance of the price of the Class A shares representative of the capital stock of Company B, considering all the terms of payment established in the Stock Purchase Agreement as expired.
If MPC exercises the option prior to the expiry of the sixty (60) month term prescribed in the Option Agreement, MPC shall additionally pay DUVAZ the projected economic cash flow of the Properties over which the option is exercised, in accordance with Exhibit J. Similarly, MPC shall pay DUVAZ’s creditors the full unpaid balance of the obligations
14
detailed in Exhibit F, considering them extinguished, or, in any case, subrogate DUVAZ’s position as debtor before the creditors.
(e) Consequences of the failure to exercise the option. Should MPC decide not to exercise the option set forth in the Option Agreement, all the credit rights of MPC before DUVAZ shall be automatically assigned, free of charge, to the Agents or their designees. For such purpose, MPC undertakes to have previously fulfilled the obligations assumed (including any outstanding obligations) under the agreements executed to acquire the ownership of said credit rights.
3.2 Treatment of DUVAZ’s liabilities
(a) Liabilities remaining with DUVAZ
1. As from the execution of this Master Agreement and during a term of two hundred and ten (210) days, unless the parties otherwise mutually decide to extend it, MPC shall take part, either individually or jointly with DUVAZ, in the rescheduling of the debts of said company which are detailed in Exhibit F. Exhibit F, “Schedule of Payments”, describes the time period and the funds that DUVAZ requires MPC to deliver to the creditors detailed therein, at the expense of DUVAZ and with no reimbursement thereof, in order to honour the obligations outlined therein.
2. For rescheduling purposes, MPC may designate one or more representatives to participate, with or without the officials of DUVAZ, at MPC’s option, in the rescheduling of the aforesaid obligations. The final terms of the rescheduling of such obligations shall be approved in each case by DUVAZ within a period of five (5) business days after MPC requests such approval in writing. DUVAZ may not refuse to approve the rescheduling terms proposed by MPC unless there are sufficient and justifiable reasons for doing so. In order to avoid any doubt, it is clearly established that DUVAZ may justifiably reject the rescheduling terms if, as a result, the instalments to be paid significantly differ from each other, giving priority to the payment of lower instalments and postponing the payment of the higher instalments (even if a significant reduction of the amount owed is obtained during the rescheduling).
If DUVAZ fails to express its agreement or disagreement within the term of five (5) business days, it shall be understood that DUVAZ has consented to the rescheduling terms proposed by MPC.
3. As part of this commitment, MPC undertakes to provide DUVAZ’s creditors listed in Exhibit F with the funds required by DUVAZ to fulfill its obligations detailed in Exhibit F hereto in a timely manner. It is hereby certified that the provision of such funds is made within the context of a number of covenants contained herein; consequently, in no case may it
15
be construed that: (i) DUVAZ is obliged to reimburse MPC for said amounts of money, or that (ii) any type of credit has been generated in favour of MPC for said concept.
4. As long as MPC decides to execute the Option Agreement within the stipulated term and said Option Agreement is registered in each one of the filing entries of the mining concessions subject matter of the option, MPC shall pay the obligations described in Exhibit F, even if no type of discount or remission is obtained for the payment of such obligations. This circumstance shall not grant MPC the right to terminate this Master Agreement, nor those agreements entered into to execute it. On the other hand, if any discount or remission is obtained from the rescheduling of the obligations, MPC shall comply with its obligation by paying the discounted amounts, provided that the cancellation of the obligations described in Exhibit F is obtained.
5. Should MPC fail to provide DUVAZ’s creditors with the funds detailed in Exhibit F at the time which MPC exercises the option set forth in the Option Agreement, MPC shall pay DUVAZ the face value of said liabilities plus the surcharges, interest, commissions, expenses and other amounts that may have accrued, without prejudice to the indemnity rights granted to DUVAZ pursuant to the documents executed as part of the complete agreement between DUVAZ, the Agents and MPC, and the applicable regulations.
6. In relation to the liabilities that shall remain with DUVAZ and which are regulated by this subsection, MPC shall hold the Agents harmless from any measure dictated against the properties of the Agents that guarantee said liabilities. Furthermore, MPC undertakes to obtain the replacement or release of the real and personal guarantees supporting such liabilities which have been established by the Agents (directly or indirectly) and that are listed in Exhibit K. This obligation to replace the guarantees shall be performed by MPC once the Option Agreement has been registered in the filing entries of the mining concessions detailed in Exhibit A and provided that the creditors accept said replacement. Otherwise, MPC shall guarantee the Agents that any obligation that they may have to assume to pay the debts backed by the guarantees listed in Exhibit K hereto will be reimbursed, up to the amounts indicated in Exhibit F.
7. Should MPC decide to exercise the option regulated in the Option Agreement, MPC must have replaced all the guarantees referred to in this subsection. If, despite best efforts of MPC to replace said guarantees, the Creditors fail to accept their replacement for any reason whatsoever, MPC shall hold the Agents harmless from any measure that may be issued against its properties.
16
8. In these cases, MPC must carry out all procedures and paperwork that may be necessary and/or advisable to obtain the approval of the respective creditor for the replacement of the guarantees.
9. During the option term, MPC, together with representatives of DUVAZ, shall participate in a committee set up to monitor the level of liabilities foreseen in Exhibit F and the discount values that may be obtained. The committee shall be made up of four (4) members. One (1) of these members shall be appointed by the Agents and another one (1) by DUVAZ. The other two (2) members shall be appointed by MPC. The decisions shall be adopted by the favourable vote of no less than three of its members.
10. The parties agree that:
(i) The new debts assumed by DUVAZ as from the execution of the Master Agreement before any third party, and which exceed the amount of S/. 150,000 (One Hundred Fifty Thousand Nuevos Soles), or any obligation, even those for a smaller amount, that may entail the filing of a bankruptcy proceeding against DUVAZ, or
(ii) Any new debt assumed by DUVAZ as from the date of execution of the Master Agreement, which in the opinion of MPC may reasonably produce a materially adverse effect on the Equity of DUVAZ;
must be previously approved in each case by MPC within a period of five (5) business days after DUVAZ requests its approval in writing.
MPC may not withhold its consent, unless there are sufficient and justifiable reasons to do so. If MPC fails to express its agreement or disagreement within a term of five (5) business days, it shall be understood that MPC has consented to the indebtedness proposed by DUVAZ.
(b) Credits to be contributed to Company B
1. MPC has executed the following agreements to acquire the ownership of several credits before DUVAZ which shall be contributed to Company B and which are detailed in Exhibit C hereto:
(i) Notarially Recorded Instrument evidencing the Agreement for the Assignment of Rights entered into on May 9, 2005 by and between Xxxxx Sudameris Sociedad Titulizadora S.A., Banco Xxxxx Sudameris and Minera Perú Copper S.A.
17
(ii) Notarially Recorded Instrument evidencing the Agreement for the Assignment of Rights entered into on May 9, 2005 by and between Banco Xxxxx Sudameris and Minera Perú Copper S.A.
(iii) Notarially Recorded Instrument evidencing the Agreement for the Assignment of Rights entered into on May 9, 2005 by and between Banco de Crédito del Perú and Minera Perú Copper S.A.
(iv) Notarially Recorded Instrument evidencing the Agreement for the Assignment of Rights entered into on May 9, 2005 by and between Banco Internacional del Perú and Minera Perú Copper S.A.
Some of these agreements have been subjected to conditions precedent, which, as of the date of execution hereof, have not yet been fulfilled.
2. The Parties agree that prior to the execution of the Option Agreement and the Stock Purchase Agreement, MPC must have fulfilled all the conditions, must have met all the payments and, in general, must have carried out all the acts necessary to complete the purchase of the ownership of the credits before DUVAZ, established in paragraphs (i) to (iv) hereto. For such purpose, DUVAZ undertakes to grant all the authorizations and consents that may be required. It is hereby understood that MPC may not, directly or indirectly, acquire new credits before DUVAZ, except with the written consent of the Agents.
3. Furthermore, as from the date of execution hereof, MPC must refrain from executing or continuing to execute the real or personal guarantees that support such liabilities and which have been established by the Agents or by DUVAZ (directly or indirectly). Similarly, MPC undertakes to keep the holders of such credits from executing or continuing to execute the real or personal guarantees supporting such liabilities and which have been established by the Agents or by DUVAZ (directly or indirectly).
4. Similarly, as from the execution hereof, MPC must refrain from assigning or encumbering, either in whole or in part, the credits with DUVAZ stated in items (i) to (iv).
5. Once the Class A Shareholders of Company B have collected the first payment of US$7,000,000 (Seven Million US Dollars) for the transfer of the shares of Company B, MPC shall release all the real or personal guarantees related to all the liabilities contributed to Company B.
3.3 Management of the Properties detailed in Exhibit A. During the term of the Option Agreement, DUVAZ undertakes not to: (i) carry out acts of disposition of
18
the Properties listed in Exhibit A; (ii) establish any new lien or encumbrance on the Properties detailed in Exhibit A, except for the authorized liens or encumbrances listed in Exhibit I; and (iii) assume new financial obligations in violation of Point 10, Article 3.2 (a) hereof.
The parties hereto represent that they are aware that the Properties are subject to the liens and encumbrances detailed in Exhibit I hereto.
Whenever required to prevent the execution of the guarantees and as a necessary requirement for MPC to exercise the option, MPC shall pay the amounts required to obtain the release of such liens and encumbrances directly to the financial institutions in favour of which they have been convened or established. If, for any reason cause other than the accrual of penalty or default interest on the debt mentioned in said Exhibit, the amount required to release the liens and encumbrances is increased, the surplus shall be discounted from the payment to be made as a result of the exercise of the option or from the balance of the price for the transfer of shares issued by Company B.
FOUR: Payment of royalties. On the occasions indicated in the Exhibits to this Master Agreement, the following royalty agreements shall be entered into:
1. The Class A Shareholders of Company B and MPC shall enter into a royalty agreement, as per the form agreement attached hereto as Exhibit G, which shall establish that MPC (or any successor) must pay the Class A Shareholders of Company B (50% for each one of the Class A Shareholders of Company B, respectively) royalties on the production extracted from the Properties owned by Company B.
2. DUVAZ and MPC shall enter into a royalty agreement, as per the form agreement attached hereto as Exhibit H, which shall establish that, after having exercised the option set forth in the Option Agreement, MPC (or any successor) must pay DUVAZ royalties on the production extracted from the Properties listed in Exhibit A. The payment of these royalties shall be applied to the consideration to be paid by MPC to DUVAZ for the exercise of the option set forth in the Option Agreement.
The royalties shall be calculated based on the mineral actually extracted from the Properties listed in Exhibits A and B, to the extent that production actually exists. The provisions of this Article do not entail any minimum production obligation on the part of MPC.
FIVE: Environmental responsibility
5.1 Guarantees. In the case of the Properties to be contributed to Company B (as detailed in Exhibit B), MPC shall provide the competent authorities with all the guarantees established in the Act on Mine Closure Plan, its supplementary, amending and regulatory provisions, as from the date on which the conditions set forth in Point 4.3 of the Stock Purchase Agreement are met by the Class A
19
Shareholders of Company B in order to withdraw from the Notary’s Office the check corresponding to the first payment of the balance of US$7,000,000 (Seven Million US Dollars) for the price of transfer of Company B’s shares, in accordance with Exhibit D hereto.
As from the date of execution of the Option Agreement and the registration of all the filing entries corresponding to the properties subject matter of the thereof, MPC must provide the environmental guarantees for the fulfillment of the Act on Mine Closure Plan and supplements, amendments and regulations thereof, as related to the Properties outlined in Exhibit A hereto, solely with respect to the Kingsmill tunnel water. In the event that MPC informs DUVAZ that it shall not be exercising the Option, DUVAZ shall replace this guarantee within the following three (3) months (unless MPC otherwise exercises the option entered into with Centromin for the Toromocho Project).
5.2 Environmental and safety liabilities. Moreover, as from the date on which MPC exercises the option set forth in the Option Agreement, and the Agreement for the transfer of Properties detailed in Exhibit A is registered in all the filing entries corresponding to the mining concessions subject matter of the Option Agreement, MPC shall assume the following environmental and safety liabilities:
1. Any and all past environmental obligations or liabilities disclosed by the Agents to MPC during the due diligence process referred to in Article 1, including but not limited to all the environmental contingencies or liabilities disclosed in the Environmental Adaptation and Management Program (PAMA), in the comprehensive PAMA or in the Environmental Impact Studies of DUVAZ. To avoid any doubt, MPC acknowledges that it shall assume the environmental contingencies and liabilities associated with the Kingsmill Tunnel, DUVAZ’s campsites and plant, and the piles of material (mineralized or debris) that may exist at the time the option is exercised.
2. All the present or future environmental obligations and liabilities related to the Properties.
3. All the obligations related to the Mine Closure Plan (in compliance with Acts 28090 and 28271, as amended, replaced and regulated) of the Properties listed in Exhibit A hereto, except for those obligations accrued prior to exercising the option.
In order to avoid any doubt, DUVAZ and the Agents are responsible for executing the closure of the mine currently exploited by DUVAZ in the Properties listed in Exhibit A, and for keeping updated the respective Mine Closure Plan. If, due to any circumstance, the environmental liability closure plan or the mine closure plan is not updated on the date the option is exercised, MPC may deduct, under the terms established in paragraph 2 of points 5.4, the amounts required to comply with such
20
obligations (i) from the discounted flow to be paid if the option set forth in the Option Agreement is exercised, and (ii) from the Escrow Account referred to in Article 5 of the Stock Purchase Agreement, and (iii) if necessary, from the possible royalties it is obliged to pay to MPC by virtue of the royalty agreements established in Article 4 hereof.
5.3 Supervisory Committee. As from the execution of the Option Agreement, the parties shall set up a supervisory committee made up of four (4) members, one (1) designated by DUVAZ, one (1) by the Agents and two (2) by MPC, who shall supervise DUVAZ’s fulfillment of its environmental obligations. The environmental obligations shall be understood as those established in the acts on the protection of the environment and the health of persons and living beings in general which are applicable to DUVAZ on the date of execution hereof or the acts that may be enacted in the future, the obligations deriving from approved environmental instruments and the general environmental regulations aimed at protecting the health of living beings in general. DUVAZ or the Agents shall not be responsible for the obligations of the comprehensive projects in which DUVAZ is involved but does not have decision-making powers, regardless of economic obligations derived from their participation in said projects.
The supervisory committee shall have the power to exclusively supervise the environmental management of DUVAZ’s operations and to make recommendations on the management of such operations. The supervisory committee shall be presided over by a representative of MPC. In accordance with the resolutions adopted by the supervisory committee, the chairman shall notify DUVAZ in writing, with the knowledge of the other members of the committee, of any violation of the regulations mentioned in the preceding paragraph that he may observe. DUVAZ and the Agents jointly and severally undertake to provide any information that may be required.
The members of the Supervisory Committee must, at all times, reasonably and technically justify their opinions or recommendations. They may not unjustifiably refuse to issue the applicable recommendations. Furthermore, DUVAZ may not unjustifiably refuse to follow the recommendations made by the Supervisory Committee.
5.4 Adjustments for environmental liabilities. Within three (3) months following receipt of the notice sent by MPC informing of its decision to exercise the transfer option, a baseline study shall be prepared determining, from an environmental standpoint, the conditions in which the Properties detailed in Exhibit A are to be received. The baseline study shall be conducted by a company selected by DUVAZ from a list of three (3) companies proposed by MPC. The cost of said study shall be borne by MPC. The study shall include the determination of the degree of compliance with the environmental regulations in general and the environmental instruments applicable to DUVAZ in particular, as well as the determination of the amount required to remedy any possible environmental impact resulting from the failure to comply with the environmental instruments that may be in force on the date on which the option is exercised.
21
If, as a result of the baseline study, it is determined that DUVAZ’s operations were not conducted in accordance with the applicable environmental instruments and were not adapted to any applicable environmental regulations foreseen as being applicable in the future, MPC may deduct the costs established by the study to adjust such operations to said environmental instruments (i) from the discounted flow to be paid if the option set forth in the Option Agreement is exercised, and (ii) from the Escrow Account referred to in Article 5 of the Stock Purchase Agreement, and (iii) if necessary, from the possible royalties that MPC is obliged to pay under the royalty agreements prescribed in Article 4 hereto. In no case shall the costs related to the comprehensive Kingsmill Tunnel project be deductible, except for those obligations related to this project that are attributable to DUVAZ and that have accrued on the date the Option is exercised.
SIX: Labour Issues
6.1 Labour obligations. DUVAZ shall comply with all obligations to its employees as established in the labour law, particularly with respect to the prompt payment of salaries, bonuses, contributions to the private pension fund system and any obligation it may be complied to fulfill, pursuant to the labour law, covenants or customs. Within three (3) months after receipt of the notice served by MPC informing of its decision to exercise the transfer option, a study on the fulfillment of said labour obligations shall be prepared. The study shall be conducted by a person or company selected by DUVAZ from a list of three (3) companies proposed by MPC. The cost of the study shall be shared by DUVAZ and MPC in equal parts.
MPC may deduct from the discounted flow to be paid if the option contained in the Option Agreement is exercised and, then, if necessary, from the Escrow Account referred to in Article 5 of the Stock Purchase Agreement, any labour debt not listed in Exhibit F that has not been paid by DUVAZ and that has been determined in the study referred to in Point 6.1 and that may create a risk for Company B that an attachment may be judicially imposed on the Properties listed in Exhibits A or B as a result of the failure to pay labour debts, in application of the regulations contained in Legislative Decree 856, as may be supplemented, amended or replaced in the future.
For the purposes of the provisions set forth in the preceding paragraph, the date to exercise the option shall be understood as the date of receipt of the communication mentioned in Point 4.2 of the Option Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit E.
If, prior to the exercise of the option, MPC requests that DUVAZ or the Agents make the arrangements necessary to evict certain employee(s), the resulting costs shall be borne by MPC. Furthermore, should it be necessary to disburse any amount of money to facilitate the transportation of the employees and/or their families, MPC must give its prior consent and pay such amounts. If MPC
22
fails to grant its consent for the transportation of a specific employee, the Agents shall be released from their obligation to ensure that DUVAZ makes the necessary arrangements for the transportation of the employee.
In the event that, due to any circumstance, DUVAZ decides to close the operations prior to the execution of the Transfer Option Agreement, DUVAZ shall be obliged to transport all the employees or former employees in the Alejandría area, without requiring any request or disbursement from MPC.
It is hereby certified that MPC is aware that a concentrating plant owned by DUVAZ operates in the Alejandría area, as well as some machinery and equipment property of DUVAZ. MPC may only request DUVAZ to withdraw said concentrating plant, as well as the machinery and equipment located in the Alejandría area, after MPC has exercised, at any time, the option set forth in the Option Agreement. Such withdrawal shall take place within a term not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days after the transfer option of the Properties is exercised, pursuant to the provisions of Article 8. Following the expiry of said 180-day term, MPC shall acquire ownership rights of such properties.
SEVEN: Equipment. All the disassemblable equipment, machinery and infrastructure of DUVAZ located at the Properties shall belong to DUVAZ, which does not imply the payment of any consideration in favour of MPC. Should DUVAZ fail to notify MPC of its intention to withdraw one or more pieces of duly-identified disassemblable equipment, machinery or infrastructure within thirty (30) days after the exercise of the option, it shall be understood that DUVAZ shall not make use of its right to withdraw them. DUVAZ shall have a term of one hundred and eighty (180) days from the time the option is exercised to withdraw the properties identified. Following expiry of said 180-day term, MPC shall acquire ownership rights of such properties.
EIGHT: Confidentiality Agreement. MPC acknowledges the strictly confidential nature of all the information, documentation and knowledge of DUVAZ and the Agents and Class A shareholders of Company B transmitted by them orally or in writing, or received or acquired from any source, within the context of this Master Agreement, the exhibits thereto and the related agreements. Furthermore, the parties hereto represent that the Agents and/or DUVAZ and the Class A shareholders of Company B, shall be the sole owners of all the documentation and information provided to MPC or obtained as a result of the negotiation, execution or performance of this Master Agreement, the exhibits thereto and the related agreements, including but not limited to credit capacity, identity of its creditors, identity of its suppliers, technical information, procedures, methods, systems, etc.
In this regard, MPC undertakes to maintain the confidentiality of all information or documentation referred to in the foregoing paragraph and not to disclose it to any third party or use it, directly or indirectly, during the term of the Master Agreement and for a further term of ten (10) years after expiry thereof.
MPC undertakes to impose the confidentiality, non-disclosure and non-use obligation referred to in this Article on each one of its employees and all of its personnel, including
23
but not limited to its directors, managers, shareholders, employees, members of the committees set up hereunder and sub-contracted personnel in general.
NINE: Stay of legal and administrative proceedings. In relation to any pending legal and administrative proceedings between MPC and DUVAZ, MPC and the Agents undertake to:
1. Immediately after the execution hereof, MINERA PERÚ COPPER S.A. and DUVAZ shall file before the Committee of Bankruptcy Proceedings of the National Institute for the Defence of Free Competition and the Protection of the Intellectual Property (INDECOPI), a joint writ (according to Exhibit L) requesting the conventional stay of the bankruptcy proceeding initiated against DUVAZ.
2. Immediately after the execution hereof, MPC shall ensure that Banco de Crédito del Perú files, jointly with DUVAZ, before the Forty-Seventh Civil Court in and for Lima (Docket 1999-35184-1-0100-J-CI-47), a writ (according to Exhibit L-1) requesting the stay of the proceeding filed by Banco de Crédito del Perú against DUVAZ, thereby suspending the execution of the ruling issued in said proceeding.
3. Immediately after the execution hereof, MPC shall ensure that Banco de Crédito del Perú files, jointly with DUVAZ, before the Fiftieth Civil Court in and for Lima (Docket 2003-4874-100-J-CI-50), a writ (according to Exhibit L-2) requesting the stay of the proceeding filed by Banco de Crédito del Perú against DUVAZ.
4. Immediately after the execution hereof, MPC shall ensure that Banco Internacional del Perú S.A.A. files, jointly with DUVAZ, before the Forty-Seventh Civil Court in and for Lima (Docket 22498-2002), a writ (according to Exhibit L-3) requesting the stay of the proceeding filed by Banco Internacional del Perú S.A.A. against DUVAZ, so that the preliminary injunctions issued in said proceeding are suspended. Should MPC fail to ensure that the Banco Internacional del Peru S.A.A. presents the writ referred to in this paragraph, MPC undertakes to hold harmless DUVAZ and its guarantors (if any) for any damages that may arise from the execution of any sentence or preliminary injunction that may be dictated during the period in which the stay of this proceeding should have lasted.
5. Immediately after the execution hereof, MINERA PERÚ COPPER S.A. and DUVAZ shall file before the Tenth Civil Court in and for Lima a joint writ (according to Exhibit L-4) requesting the stay of the legal proceeding filed by DUVAZ against MINERA PERÚ COPPER S.A.
As from the execution hereof, MPC and the Agents undertake to (a) suspend any other legal or administrative proceedings that they may have filed against each other, either directly or indirectly, (b) suspend any other legal or administrative proceeding filed against DUVAZ and, (c) request, file all required writs and carry out all the procedures necessary to obtain the extension of the stays.
24
On the other hand, as from the date on which the withdrawal right has been generated from the check corresponding to the first instalment of the payment of the prices of Class A shares of Company B transferred in favour of MPC by virtue of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Option Agreement is executed and said agreement is registered in the filing entries of all the Properties subject matter of the option, MPC, the Agents and DUVAZ undertake to file writs of abandonment of action and carry out all the necessary arrangements to bring the processes and proceedings referred to in this Article to an end. The parties further agree that if, prior to the abandonment of action mentioned above, the stay of any of the processes or proceedings stated in this Article is lifted or ceased for any reason whatsoever and any judgment against DUVAZ or the Agents is executed, MPC shall bear the amount subject matter of execution.
Once the option is exercised or the Option Agreement and the Stock Purchase Agreement have been terminated for no cause imputable to DUVAZ or to the Agents, MPC will abandon all processes or proceedings it may have filed against DUVAZ or the Agents.
In the event that neither the Option Agreement nor the Stock Purchase Agreement are executed, the parties shall render ineffective the stays of the legal and administrative proceedings.
TEN: Other obligations. The undersigned parties undertake to execute all public and private documents required to formalize the registration obligations established in this Master Agreement and Exhibits hereof, including but not limited to the necessary amendments, clarifications, extensions or corrections, provided the agreements contained herein and Exhibits hereof are not distorted.
Furthermore, the parties undertake to sign all public and private documents required to formalize the registration of the agreement executed by DUVAZ and MPC, attached hereto as Exhibit Ñ, in the filing entries of the Properties outlined in Exhibits A and B, with the exception of those referred to in point 2.2(a), Article 2 and in point 3.1(a1) Article 3 hereof. The parties agree that the contents of this Master Agreement are a conventional restriction to the ownership of the Properties, established pursuant to Section 926 of the Civil Code. This conventional restriction has also been represented by DUVAZ and MPC in the agreement attached hereto as Exhibit Ñ. It is hereby understood that it is the will of the parties to put into the form of a Notarially Recorded Instrument only Exhibit Ñ and Appendixes A and B thereof, equivalent to Exhibits A and B of this Master Agreement. In order to avoid any doubt, the whole of the text of the Master Agreement, as well as Exhibits A to N hereof, shall not form part of the Notarially Recorded Instrument originating in Exhibit Ñ, but will remain private documents between the parties until they are formalized. The notarial and registration fees incurred to formalize Exhibit Ñ and Appendixes A and B thereof shall be fully borne by MPC.
In such sense, provided that this master agreement is in full force and effect, the Agents and Duvaz are prohibited to transfer or exercise nay act for the disposal of the Property other that the acts provided for herein and in the exhibits hereto.
25
ELEVEN: Prevalence of the Master Agreement. All written or verbal proposals made by MPC, DUVAZ, the Class A Shareholders of Company B or the Agents prior to this document which have not been expressly contemplated herein shall have no legal effect or force.
None of the parties may assign its contractual position in this agreement or its rights thereunder without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto.
All the obligations established herein for DUVAZ shall be jointly and severally assumed by the Agents without exception. Similarly, any obligation undertaken by the Agents shall be jointly and severally assumed by DUVAZ without the benefit of excussio.
TWELVE: Applicable law and jurisdiction. This Master Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Republic of Peru. The parties agree that in the case of any dispute or conflict arising between them related to the construction, execution, validity or effect of this Master Agreement, they shall attempt to settle such dispute in good faith through direct communication.
In the case of failure by the Parties to reach an agreement within a term of fifteen (15) calendar days, at the request of either Party, the dispute shall be settled by a De Jure Arbitration, subject to the following rules:
(a) The arbitration shall be conducted by an arbitration court composed of three (3) members.

Furthermore, should the two arbitrators thus designated fail to appoint the third arbitrator within a term of ten (10) calendar days, counted as from the date of designation of the last arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the Center.
(d) If, for any reason, a replacement arbitrator must be appointed, he shall be designated following the same procedure mentioned hereinabove for the designation of the replaced arbitrator.

After the arbitration award has been issued, the unsuccessful party must reimburse the other for such fees, pursuant to the provisions set forth in paragraph (g) of this Article and to the provisions contained in the arbitration award.
Without prejudice to the provisions contained in the preceding paragraph, the parties agree that should any counterclaim resulting in an increase of the fees initially established by the arbitrators arise during the course of the arbitration proceedings, such additional fees must be paid exclusively by the party proposing such a counterclaim. If the party filing the counterclaim fails to pay such fees, the arbitration proceeding shall continue as if said counterclaim had never been filed.
It is hereby established that if the party filing the counterclaim is favoured with the arbitration award, it shall also be entitled to the reimbursement of the additional fees of the arbitrators, pursuant to the provisions set forth in paragraph (g) of this Article and to the provisions contained in the arbitration award.
(f) Expenses incurred in producing evidence shall be borne during the course of the arbitration proceeding by the party offering it, without prejudice to the right to the reimbursement of such costs, pursuant to the provisions set forth in paragraph (g) of this Article and to the provisions contained in the arbitration award.
(g) The costs and expenses corresponding to the arbitration shall be borne by the unsuccessful party, including the fees of the arbitrators, the legal advisors and any other cost or expense derived from the conduction of said proceeding. The arbitration award must include an opinion on this matter.
(h) The arbitration court shall have a term of ninety (90) business days, counted as from the date of its instalment, to issue the respective arbitration award, which is final and cannot be appealed. The arbitration court may order an extension of up to thirty (30) additional business days to issue the arbitration award.
The parties may mutually agree to request that the arbitration court order the extension of the process as many times as they may deem pertinent and for the terms they may consider advisable. In these cases, the arbitration court may increase its fees.
Furthermore, the arbitration court may be entrusted to accurately solve the dispute.
(i) The parties agree that should either of them file an appeal to annul or in any way challenge the arbitration award, it will be required to grant a joint letter of guarantee issued by a first-class bank in favour of the other party for US$1,000,000 (One Million US Dollars). The Letter of Guarantee shall be
27
granted prior to filing any appeal of this type and shall remain in force for a minimum of one (1) year. The Letter of Guarantee must be renewed by the guaranteed party if the appeal for annulment has not concluded within its original term, and shall be kept by a Notary Public in and for Lima selected by the party granting it. The Notary Public shall be instructed not to deliver the Letter of Guarantee to the other party, except in the case of a firm and approved resolution against the party filing the appeal for the annulment of the arbitration award.
This Letter of Guarantee shall be returned to the party that filed the appeal for annulment or challenge, only if the appeal concludes with a firm and approved resolution in favour of said party. Otherwise, the Letter of Guarantee shall be executed in favour of the party that did not file an appeal and shall be considered by the parties as a penalty, which shall not be limited to the damages, costs or fees due to the party that did not file the appeal.
(j) The arbitration shall be conducted in the city of Lima, Peru in the Spanish language.
Furthermore, the parties agree that should the intervention of the regular judges and courts be required by a legal resolution, the parties expressly submit to the jurisdiction of the judges and courts of the Judicial District of Urban Lima, waiving the jurisdiction of their domiciles.
Executed in two counterparts in Lima this 16th day of March, 2006.

The letter of guarantee shall be returned to the party that filed the appeal for annulment or challenge, only if it ends with a firm and admitted court ruling in favour of said party. Otherwise, the letter of guarantee shall be executed in favour of the party that filed no appeal and shall be considered a penalty by the parties.

FIVE: Escrow Account
5.1 Pursuant to the provisions of Articles Five and Six of the Master Agreement, the PURCHASER may deduct any of the following items from the price set in Article Four hereof:
(i) The costs determined by the baseline study to be entrusted to DUVAZ and the PURCHASER for the adaptation of DUVAZ’s operations in the event of non fulfillment by DUVAZ of the applicable environmental instruments and the applicable environmental legislation that has been enacted or that may be enacted after the execution of the Master Agreement, including the determination of the amount required to remedy any eventual environmental impact resulting from the non-compliance with the environmental instruments that may be in force on the date the Option is exercised; and
(ii) Any labour debt that has not been paid by DUVAZ, that is not listed in the Schedule of Disbursements of Exhibit F to the Master Agreement
57
that is also Appendix C to the Stock Purchase Agreement, that has been determined in the study to be entrusted to DUVAZ and the PURCHASER, and that may create for Company B the risk that an attachment may be judicially imposed on the properties listed in Appendix A or B to the Master Agreement as a result of the failure to pay employment-related debts.
5.2 Without prejudice to the performance of the studies mentioned in Articles 5 and 6 of the Master Agreement upon in Point 5.1, the PURCHASER and DUVAZ shall entrust the performance of an environmental base line study and a labour audit in relation to the matters detailed in Point 5.1 above, three (3) months prior to the expiry of the last instalment of the purchase price set in Article Four, Point 4.2, Item (v). The cost of both studies shall be borne by the PURCHASER. Such studies shall be performed by a person or legal entity selected by DUVAZ among three (3) proposals presented by the PURCHASER, who shall limit the scope of the studies pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Master Agreement and of this Stock Purchase Agreement. The selection of DUVAZ shall be made within a term of three (3) business days from the date the PURCHASER notifies DUVAZ with respect to the three (3) companies proposed. If DUVAZ fails to inform the PURCHASER of its selection within the aforementioned term, the PURCHASER is empowered to select the company that shall conduct the studies, only among the three (3) companies proposed. DUVAZ jointly and severally with the AGENTS, assumes the obligation to provide all the information that is necessary to effect the aforementioned study.
If, under the terms hereof, the PURCHASER is bound to pay the last instalment of the purchase price set in Article Four, Point 4.2, Item (v) and, on such date, it has not yet notified its decision to exercise or not to exercise the option set forth in the Option Agreement, such instalment shall be deposited, in whole or in part, in an Escrow Account (the “Escrow Account”) to be opened by the SELLERS to that effect in Banco de Crédito del Perú or in Banco Internacional del Peru (Interbank) or otherwise in a renowned bank entity agreed upon by both parties.
Thus, if the results of the studies as a whole determine the existence of costs or liabilities up to the amount of US$500,000 (Five Hundred Thousand US Dollars), the PURCHASER shall deposit in the Escrow Account the amount of US$666,666.67 (Six Hundred Sixty-Six Thousand Six Hundred Sixty-Six and 67/100 US Dollars), corresponding to the last instalment of the purchase price.
If, on the contrary, the results of the studies as a whole determine the existence of costs or liabilities for more than US$500,000 (Five Hundred Thousand US Dollars) the PURCHASER shall deposit in the Escrow Account the full amount of the last instalment of the purchase price.
5.3 Upon exercising the option set forth in the Option Agreement, the PURCHASER shall be able to make the adjustments referred to in Point 5.1 to the amount deposited in the Escrow Account. Once the price adjustments have been
58
performed, any remaining amount shall correspond exclusively to the SELLERS.
5.4 The terms and conditions that shall govern the management and settlement of the Escrow Account shall be determined by both Parties within ninety (90) days after the execution of the Master Agreement.
SIX: Assets under Joint Ownership or Subject to Rights of First Refusal
6.1 The PURCHASER acknowledges that (1) the concession named “Xxxxxxx” (as per the list of concessions attached to the Stock Purchase Agreement as Appendix A) is owned by SOCIEDAD XXXXXX XXXXXXX DE HUANCAYO S.R.L. and (2) the share interests of such mining company are held by DUVAZ (50%) and VOLCÁN COMPAÑIA MINERA S.A.A. (50%). In this connection, the transfer of the share interests in such mining company in favour of Company B shall be subject to a right of first refusal in favour of VOLCÁN COMPAÑIA MINERA S.A.A..
6.2 The PURCHASER acknowledges that (1) the concession named “Xxxxx” (as per the list of concessions attached to the Stock Purchase Agreement as Appendix A) is owned by Sociedad Xxxxxx Xxxxx de Huancayo S.R.L. and (2) the share interests of such mining company are held by DUVAZ (98%) and XXXX XXXXX & SONS (2%). In this connection, the transfer of the share interests in such mining company in favour of Company B shall be subject to a right of revocation in favour of XXXX XXXXX & SONS
6.3 The PURCHASER acknowledges that the concession named “Xxxxx Celina” (as per the list of concessions attached to the Stock Purchase Agreement as Appendix A) is jointly owned by DUVAZ (33.33%), XXXXXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX (00.00%) xxx XXXXXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXX (33.33%). In this connection, the transfer of the ideal shares in such co-owned mining concession in favour of Company B shall be subject to a right of revocation in favour of XXXXXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX xxx XXXXXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXX.
6.4 The PURCHASER acknowledges that the concession named “La Demócrata” (as per the list of concessions attached to the Stock Purchase Agreement as Appendix A) is jointly owned by DUVAZ (33.33%) and SUCESIÓN XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX (66.66%). In this connection, the transfer of the ideal shares in such co-owned mining concession in favour of Company B shall be subject to a right of first refusal and revocation in favour of SUCESIÓN XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX.
6.5 For purposes of the transfer of the Assets in favour of Company B, DUVAZ and the AGENTS should have made every effort to obtain the necessary authorizations to perfect the transfer of the Assets detailed in Points 6.1 to 6.4 of this Article.
59
If, despite their efforts, DUVAZ and the AGENTS are unable to obtain the authorizations required to formalize the transfer of said Assets, the PURCHASER shall be entitled to discount from the amount to be paid set forth in Article 4 of this Stock Purchase Agreement, an amount equivalent to the value of said Assets. Such discount shall proportionally affect the amount of each one of the instalments of the price. For instance, if the area of the mining concessions is reduced to ninety percent (90%), the amount to be paid for the transfer of Class “A” Shares shall be equivalent to ninety percent (90%) of the amount established in Article Four. Consequently, each one of the instalments to be paid for the price shall be equivalent to the ninety percent (90%) of the amount initially agreed in Point 4.2 of Article Four.
For said purposes, the value of the Assets that could not have been transferred to Company B shall be determined as follows:
A/B x C; where:
A: Is the area of the concessions detailed in Point 6.1 to 6.4 of this Article that could not have been transferred to Company B.
B: Is the area of all the concessions detailed in Exhibit B to the Master Agreement.
C: Is the fifty percent (50%) of the amount for the transfer of Class “A” Shares set forth in Article Four of this Stock Purchase Agreement.
6.6. The Parties hereby agree that the mechanism for the reduction of the price established in Point 5.5 of Article Five of the Option Agreement with respect to the lower areas to be transferred as a result thereto, shall affect the price established in Article Four hereof as has been indicated in Point 6.5 of this Article.
SEVEN: Delivery of Class “A” Shares
Along with the execution hereof, the SELLERS bind themselves to:
7.1 Execute a letter addressed to Company B (pursuant to the form letter kept as Appendix D hereof) informing it on the transfer of the Class “A” Shares so that said transfer is entered in the Share Register of Company B, the share certificates issued in the name of the SELLERS are rendered null and void and the respective share certificate is issued in the name of the PURCHASER. The SELLERS shall deliver to the PURCHASER a copy of said letter together with the acknowledgment of receipt.
7.2 Deliver and hand over the Shares through the physical delivery of the certificates representing the Class “A” Shares issued by Company B, duly endorsed in favour of the PURCHASER.
60
EIGHT: Penalty
If, for to any reason other than the termination of the Stock Purchase Agreement by the PURCHASER, the PURCHASER fails to pay any of the instalments established herein, in a timely manner and/or in full, and pursuant to the terms hereof, it shall pay the SELLERS, with no need for a demand for payment, a penalty on those amounts which were not paid on the established dates. The penalty shall be equivalent to 0.1% per day of the amount owed for the period of time between the date on which payment should have been made and the date on which the funds are actually made available to the SELLERS, without prejudice to the actions that may be taken for contractual termination.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the PURCHASER shall be liable for and shall pay the SELLERS and/or the AGENTS as the case may be, all the additional costs, expenses and losses caused by or directly related to the delay in payment. The SELLERS shall submit to the PURCHASER the statements of accounts, specifying the items and amounts owed, the same that shall be paid within a period of five (5) business days following receipt of said notice by the PURCHASER.
NINE: Security Interest on Class “A” Shares
9.1 The parties hereby establish that, as from the execution hereof, a security interest shall be automatically imposed on all the Class “A” Shares, in favour of the SELLERS, up to an amount of US$7,000,000 (Seven Million US Dollars), as security for the fulfillment of all the PURCHASER’s obligations herein, including but not limited to the payment of the price agreed in Article Five above, as well as any other obligation of the PURCHASER under the Master Agreement and the Option Agreement (the “Secured Obligations”).
It is hereby placed on record that a number of shares representing at all times 100% of the Class “A” Shares issued by Company B, shall be kept by the PURCHASER subject to the security interest, so that, in case of an increase in capital, the security interest shall be automatically extended to all the Class “A” Shares issued by Company B, except in the cases of partial release of the security interest, as set forth in Point 9.4 of this Article.
9.2 Pursuant to the provisions of Section 109 of the Business Corporations’ Act, the PURCHASER expressly places on record that, during the term of the security interest hereby created, the SELLERS shall exercise any and all political and economic rights over the Class “A” Shares subject matter of the security interest.
If the results of any fiscal year reveal distributable profits, in accordance with the financial statements of Company B, the excess shall be distributed among the SELLERS in equal parts and applied to the payment of the following instalment or instalments of the price, as the case may be.
61
9.3 The security interest shall be automatically released upon payment of the full purchase price, without prejudice to the reductions of the security interest value referred to in Point 9.4 of this Article. Similarly, the ownership and exercise of the political and economic rights corresponding to Class “A” Shares shall revert to the PURCHASER once the full purchase price has been paid.
In order to generate the consequences foreseen in the foregoing paragraph, it shall suffice that both parties execute a certificate evidencing the payment of the full purchase price. Said certificate shall be subsequently entered in the Share Register of Company B.
9.4 Without prejudice to the provisions set forth in the foregoing point, the value of the security interest shall be progressively reduced as from payment of the third instalment of the price set forth in Article Four hereof. The security interest shall be reduced as follows:
(i) Upon payment of the third instalment agreed on in Article Four, Point 4.2, Item (iii), the value of the security interest shall be reduced by twenty percent (20%) and the security interest shall be released in relation to the number of Class “A” Shares representing twenty percent (20%) of Class “A” Shares.
(ii) Upon payment of the fourth instalment agreed upon in Article Four, Point 4.2, Item (iv), the value of the security interest shall be reduced by an additional twenty percent (20%) and the security interest shall be released in relation to the number of Class “A” Shares representing twenty percent (20%) of Class “A” Shares.
(iii) Upon payment of the fifth instalment agreed upon in Article Four, Point 4.2, Item (v) and, consequently, upon payment of the full price, the full security interest on all the Class “A” Shares shall be released. To this effect, it shall be understood that the price has been paid in full when the price adjustments mentioned in Article Five and the final settlement of the Escrow Account are performed, so that any balance that may exist in such Escrow Account in favour of the SELLERS is refunded to them.
In order to generate the consequences foreseen in this Point 9.4, it shall suffice that both parties execute certificates evidencing the payment of the respective instalments of the purchase price. Said certificates shall be subsequently entered in the Share Register of Company B. The partial release of the security interest shall imply that the political and economic rights corresponding to such shares shall revert to the PURCHASER and may be exercised by it.
Both parties may agree to replace the security interest for any other collateral or personal guarantee to the satisfaction of the SELLERS. Nevertheless, it is expressly placed on record that this replacement may be only made with the express written consent of the SELLERS.
62
9.5 As set forth in Point 11.1 of Article Eleven hereof, the PURCHASER shall not transfer the Class “A” Shares or the Class “B” Shares, until the price referred to in Article Four has been paid in full or as long as the ten (10) year term after execution hereof is in force, whichever occurs first.
TEN: Management of Company B
10.1 The SELLERS commit themselves to ensure that the governance bodies of Company B will not adopt any type of decision or resolution that may affect any of the terms and conditions of this Stock Purchase Agreement or the Master Agreement.
Without prejudice to the exercise, by the SELLERS, of the political and economic rights corresponding to the shares issued by Company B, the SELLERS may not unreasonably refuse to adopt or have the Company B corporate bodies adopt the resolutions and decisions proposed by the PURCHASER.
Nevertheless, as long as the PURCHASER does not pay the full purchase price, the SELLERS shall not be under the obligation to adopt or have the corporate bodies of Company B adopt resolutions proposed by the PURCHASER, that distort either of the covenants contained in the Master Agreement or related documents or which involve indebtedness operations on the part of Company B or acts of disposition, transfer or encumbrance on the Assets.
10.2 The PURCHASER binds itself not to adopt any decision relating to the matters mentioned in the foregoing paragraph as long as it has not paid the price stated in Article Four hereof.
10.3 It is hereby expressly understood that, as from the execution hereof, Company B shall adopt the resolutions that allow the PURCHASER to develop the mining exploration programs that it may consider convenient. Likewise, Company B shall provide all the facilities necessary to obtain the permissions and the requirements in general that may be necessary to develop such mining exploration program, without prejudice to the environmental responsibility of the PURCHASER in the execution of the exploration works and in its remediation.
The parties expressly agree that only when the PURCHASER pays the full purchase price, can the PURCHASER commence mining exploitation works.
10.4 Company B, DUVAZ, the Agents and the SELLERS shall make their best efforts and shall adopt the resolutions and decisions necessary for the execution of the administrative proceedings related to exploration permissions. The costs and expenses involved in the said proceedings shall be assumed fully by the AGENTS.
63

ELEVEN: Other Obligations of the PURCHASER
11.1 Pursuant to the provisions of Section 101 of the Business Corporations’ Act, the PURCHASER binds itself not to transfer, encumber or otherwise impose a lien on the Class “A” Shares or the Class “B” Shares of the PURCHASER as long as the PURCHASER does not pay the purchase price or for a term of ten (10) years as from the execution hereof. This limitation shall become ineffective once the PURCHASER has paid the full purchase price.
11.2 The PURCHASER must execute a letter addressed to Company B (pursuant to the form letter kept on Appendix E to the Stock Purchase Agreement) informing it on (i) the creation and terms of the right to security interest on the Class “A” Shares, (ii) the ownership and exercise of the political and economic rights over the Class “A” Shares by the SELLERS, and (iii) the temporary prohibition to transfer, encumber or impose a lien on the Class “A” Shares and the Class “B” Shares of the PURCHASER, so that such liens and encumbrances are entered in the Share Register of Company B and in the certificates representing the Class “A” Shares and Class “B” Shares. The PURCHASER shall deliver to the SELLERS a copy of such letter along with the respective acknowledgement of receipt.
The parties hereto agree that this obligation of the PURCHASER as well as the SELLERS’ obligation to send the letter referred to in Point 7.1 of Article Seven are to be fulfilled simultaneously. In this connection, such notices shall be delivered to CENTENARIO at the same time.

12.1 The transfer of the Class “A” Shares comprises everything that, formally and in effect, corresponds to them, without any restrictions or limitations whatsoever, including the rights accrued in favour of the SELLERS as at the date of execution hereof, all of which are fully assigned to the PURCHASER. Consequently, the PURCHASER shall be the owner not only of the Class “A” Shares but also of the past, present and future rights derived therefrom, such as unpaid dividends, any kind of reserves, retained earnings and, in general, any profit or benefit, without any exclusions or exceptions.
12.2 Similarly, the aforesaid transfer includes any Class “A” share not yet issued by Company B to which the SELLERS may be entitled as a result of any capital increase made prior to the execution hereof and not duly formalized.

FIFTEEN: Termination of the Stock Purchase Agreement
15.1 The parties hereto further agree that the PURCHASER may only terminate this Stock Purchase Agreement, without stating any cause, only on the same date on which it notifies DUVAZ in writing of its decision not to exercise the option prior to the expiry of the term of sixty (60) months stipulated in the Option Agreement, provided that the PURCHASER has paid at least the amount of US$3,000,000 (Three Million US Dollars) on account of the purchase price.
In the event that the PURCHASER fails to pay the amount specified in the foregoing paragraph, it may terminate this Stock Purchase Agreement at the time it notifies DUVAZ in writing of its decision not to exercise the option prior to the expiry of the term of sixty (60) months established in the Option Agreement, paying an amount sufficient to complete the sum of US$3,000,000 (Three Million US Dollars).
The obligation to pay the minimum amount of US$3,000,000 (Three Million US Dollars) shall not apply if, upon expiry of a period of ninety (90) days after the execution of the notarially recorded instrument originated by the Option Agreement, it was not possible to register the Option Agreement in each one of the respective filing entries of the mining rights described in Exhibit A to the Master Agreement, with the exception of (i) of the mining concession “Calabaza” found under a co-ownership system as detailed in Point 5.1 of the Option Agreement , and (ii) mining concessions “Grancero”, “Lola” and “Pobre Diablo” that are owned by the mining companies of limited responsibility detailed in Points 5.2 to 5.4 of the Option Agreement;
66
The obligation to pay the minimum amount of US$3,000,000 (Three Million US Dollars) shall not apply if, upon expiry of a period of ninety (90) days after the execution of the notarially recorded instrument originated by the Option Agreement, the Company B property right of on the mining concessions detailed in Exhibit B to the Master Agreement was not registered in each one of the filing entries, with the exception of (i) the mining concessions named “Xxxxxxx” and “Xxxxx” owned by the mining companies of limited responsibility listed in Points 6.1 and 6.2 hereof; and (ii) mining concessions named “Xxxxx Xxxxxx” and “La Demócrata” which are under a co-ownership system, as detailed in Points 6.3 and 6.4 hereof;
15.2 If the Purchaser notifies DUVAZ of its decision not to exercise the option set forth in the Option Agreement and terminates the Stock Purchase Agreement, as provided for in the foregoing point, the PURCHASER shall not have anything to claim from DUVAZ nor the SELLERS nor the AGENTS with respect to the portion of the price the PURCHASER would have paid until that moment. Said amount shall be considered a penalty in favour of the SELLERS for the early termination of the Stock Purchase Agreement, without prejudice to the SELLERS’ and the AGENTS right to claim a compensation for any subsequent damage that may be caused.
Furthermore, in the case referred to in this point, the parties agree that the title to the Liabilities detailed in Appendix B hereof, shall be automatically assigned to the SELLERS, under gratuitous title , at the time the PURCHASER notifies the SELLERS of its intention not to terminate the Stock Purchase Agreement, provided that simultaneously the PURCHASER has informed DUVAZ of it decision not to exercise the option set forth in the Option Agreement. Thus, each one of the SELLERS shall henceforth be the holder of fifty percent (50%) of the position as creditor of each one of the Liabilities.
In these cases, the PURCHASER shall not be bound to pay the unpaid balance of the obligations not yet due, listed in the Schedule of Payments kept on Appendix C to the Stock Purchase Agreement.
In the case referred to in Points 15.1 and 15.2, the Stock Purchase Agreement shall be understood to have been terminated once the PURCHASER has complied with the two conditions established in Points 8.1 and 8.2 of Article 8 of the Option Agreement, and consequently the notice of the PURCHASER expressing his decision not to exercise the Option, shall have effect.
15.3 The parties expressly agree that this Stock Purchase Agreement may be terminated in the event of the non-fulfillment or the partial, late or defective fulfillment of any of their obligations hereunder or in the event of the non-fulfillment or the partial, late or defective fulfillment of any of their obligations under the Master Agreement or any other contract forming part of the global agreement between DUVAZ, the AGENTS and the PURCHASER, embodied in the Master Agreement.
67
If the party affected by the non-fulfillment or the partial, late or defective fulfillment of the obligations set out in the foregoing paragraph decides to terminate this Stock Purchase Agreement, it shall send a notarial letter to the other party requesting it to satisfy the non-fulfilled obligation or the obligation that was fulfilled in a partial, late or defective manner within a term of no less than thirty (30) days, under penalty of automatically terminating the Stock Purchase Agreement. If the obligation is not fulfilled within the stipulated term, the Stock Purchase Agreement shall be terminated as a matter of law.
15.4 Under the assumption stated in the second paragraph of Point 15.3 above, if the term of thirty (30) days have passed without the PURCHASER satisfying the non-fulfilled obligation or the obligation that was fulfilled in a partial, late or defective manner as per the requirement of the SELLERS, then on the expiry of the said term, it shall be assumed that the PURCHASER has opted for the termination without expressing the causes referred to in Point 15.2 of this Article, and the consequences set forth in the three (3) paragraphs of the said Point shall be applied.
In addition, the PURCHASER shall comply with those obligations the non-fulfilled obligation or the obligation that was fulfilled in a partial, late or defective manner contained in the previous paragraph that resulted in the termination of the Agreement by the PURCHASER without expressing the cause, as well as those obligations that the PURCHASER had to comply up to the date of termination.
Similarly, in this case the provisions set forth in Point 15.6 of this provision shall be applicable.
15.5 In the event that the termination occurs due to the following causes attributable to the SELLERS:
(i) Non-fulfillment by the SELLERS of any of the obligations foreseen in Article Six hereof;
(ii) The unjustified denial of the SELLERS to adopt or have the corporate bodies of Company B adopt the resolutions and decisions proposed by the PURCHASER, unless said resolutions distort either of the covenants contained in the Master Agreement or related contracts or involve indebtedness operations on the part of Company B or acts of disposition, transfer or encumbrance on the Assets, or generate a depreciation to the equity value of Company B. In such a case, the SELLERS shall not be under the obligation to adopt or have the corporate bodies of Company B adopt such resolutions;
(iii) The performance of exploration or exploitation activities in the Assets by the SELLERS or DUVAZ;
68
(iv) The falseness or inaccuracy, upon execution hereof, of any of the representations and warranties contained in Article Twelve;
(v) Non fulfillment of the obligation set forth in Point 10.4 of Article 10 hereof.
The SELLERS, DUVAZ and the AGENTS shall jointly and severally reimburse the PURCHASER, for the total amount disbursed as at the effective date of termination for the performance of the Master Agreement and this Stock Purchase Agreement, except for the payments made to DUVAZ’s creditors in compliance with the Schedule of Payments kept on Appendix C to the Stock Purchase Agreement.
15.6 In any case, at the time the termination of the Stock Purchase Agreement takes effect, the ownership of the Class “A” Shares shall revert to the SELLERS in a fifty percent (50%) proportion for each one, which does not imply any payment obligation for the SELLERS.
Similarly, at the time the termination of the Stock Purchase Agreement takes effect, the ownership of the Class “B” Shares of the PURCHASER shall be transferred to the SELLERS in a fifty percent (50%) proportion for each one, which does not imply any payment obligation for the SELLERS.
Likewise, at the time the termination of the Stock Purchase Agreement takes effect, the PURCHASER is under the obligation to deliver to the SELLERS or to the persons that the SELLERS may designate, copies of all the reports and certified copies of drillings issued, which are obtained as a consequence of the drillings carried out by the PURCHASER pursuant to Article 10, Point 10.3 hereof.

For such purpose, the value of the Assets that could not have been transferred to MPC shall be determined as follows:

which is under a system of co-ownership as detailed in Point 5.1 hereof; and, (ii) the mining concessions named “Grancero”, “Lola” and “Pobre Diablo” owned by the mining companies detailed in Points 5.2 to 5.4 hereof..
6.2 The parties hereto expressly agree that any payments made by MPC to DUVAZ’s creditors in compliance with the Schedule of Payments attached to the Appendix C to the Option Contract may not be considered to be an assignment of the position as creditor in favour of MPC nor shall they generate any reimbursement obligation for MPC.
6.3 This obligation assumed by MPC shall constitute part of the consideration for the transfer of the Assets in the event that MPC decides to exercise the Option, and shall remain in full force and effect until the notice referred to Point 8.2 of Article Eight hereof takes effect.
SEVEN: Control Committee
7.1 In accordance with the provisions set forth in the Master Agreement, and during the Option period, MPC, DUVAZ and the Agents shall set up a control committee (the “Control Committee”) to monitor and obtain information on the level of liabilities foreseen in the Schedule of Payments attached to the Appendix C hereof, as well as the discounts that may be obtained as a result of the renegotiation of such liabilities.
7.2 The Control Committee shall consist of four (4) members. One (1) of such members shall be appointed by DUVAZ, one (1) by the Agents, and two (2) by MPC. It shall be presided over by a representative appointed by MPC.
7.3 The Control Committee shall meet at least once every fifteen (15) days. The Chairman shall be empowered to call a meeting of the Control Committee whenever deemed pertinent.

EIGHT: Formalities and Consequences of Failure to Exercise the Option
8.1 If MPC notifies DUVAZ of its decision not to exercise the Option and the Stock Purchase Agreement is still in force, this fact shall not affect the validity or enforceability of MPC’s obligation to pay off, on account of DUVAZ and without any reimbursement obligation for it, the obligations listed in the Schedule of Payments attached to Appendix C to this Option Agreement. In these cases, the
87
Option Agreement shall remain in full force and effect with respect to all the obligations related to the payment by MPC of the obligations listed in said Appendix C. In this case, the payments made by MPC until that time, in compliance with the Appendix C, as well as those to be made in respect of the same, shall be considered as a penalty in favour of DUVAZ for the non transfer of the Assets. In the case provided for in this point, the notice of MPC informing on its decision not to exercise the Option shall take effect immediately.
8.2 If, concurrently with the notice informing on its decision not to exercise the Option, MPC also notifies the Class “A” Shareholders of Company B of its decision to terminate the Stock Purchase Agreement, the following consequences shall take place:
(i) Any and all credit rights of MPC before DUVAZ or Company B shall be assigned, under gratuitous title, to the Agents or their designees. To that purpose, MPC commits itself to have previously complied with its obligations (including any outstanding obligation) under the agreements executed to acquire title to said credit rights.
(ii) MPC shall formalize the transfer of one hundred percent (100%) of the shares issued by Company B in favour of the Company B Class “A” Shareholders, pursuant to the terms and conditions foreseen in the Stock Purchase Agreement.
(iii) Once the conditions described in points (i) and (ii) above have been met, the notice of MPC informing on its decision not to exercise the Option shall take effect, so that this Option Agreement shall be automatically terminated and MPC shall not be obliged to pay the unaccrued balance of the Schedule of Payments attached to the Appendix C of this Option Agreement. The refusal of the Agents, Class “A” Shareholders of Company B, DUVAZ or their designees to formalize the acts indicated in points (i) and (ii) above, shall be considered as if such conditions are met.
In this case, the parties expressly place on record that MPC shall not have any right to claim DUVAZ or the Agents any of the payments made to DUVAZ’s creditors in compliance with the Schedule of Payments attached to the Appendix C hereof. In this case, such payments shall be considered as a penalty in favour of DUVAZ for the non transfer of the Assets.
NINE: Exercise of the Option
9.1 MPC may exercise the Option at any time during the term hereof, six (6) months in advance of the expiry of the term granted in Article Three hereof, provided that MPC has complied with its obligation to provide DUVAZ’s creditors with the funds detailed in the Schedule of Payments attached to the Appendix C to this
88
Option Agreement or has it subrogated DUVAZ’s position as debtor before the creditors.
9.2 Once the Option is exercised, DUVAZ binds itself to formalize the transfer of the Assets in favour of MPC. For such purpose, on the dates mentioned in the notice referred to in Point 4.2, DUVAZ and MPC shall execute the preliminary agreement and the notarially recorded instrument corresponding to the Transfer Agreement.
9.3 Furthermore, DUVAZ is under the obligation to execute any and all public or private documents required to perfect and formalize the execution of the Transfer Agreement and the filing thereof with the Public Records Office. In an effort to accelerate the filing with the Public Records Office, the parties may additionally execute the pertinent documents reflecting the transfer of each one of the Assets subject matter of the Option.
TEN: Consideration for the Execution of the Agreement for the Transfer of the Assets
10.1 The parties hereto agree that, if MPC notifies DUVAZ of its intention to exercise the Option, MPC’s obligation to pay off the obligations detailed in the Schedule of Payments attached to the Appendix C to this Option Contract shall be assigned to the consideration for the execution of the Transfer Agreement. Likewise, MPC shall pay DUVAZ, in consideration for the execution of the Transfer Agreement, a royalty on the production extracted from such Assets, under the terms and conditions set forth in the Royalty Agreement to be entered into by and between both parties for that purpose, a sample of which is contained in Exhibit H to the Master Agreement.
10.2 If the exercise of the Option by MPC takes effect prior to the expiry of the term prescribed in Article Three hereof, in addition to the consequence foreseen in the foregoing paragraph: (i) MPC shall pay DUVAZ the projected economic cash flow of the Assets, in accordance with Exhibit J to the Master Agreement, which is attached to the Appendix D to this Option Agreement; (ii) MPC shall pay DUVAZ’s creditors the full unpaid balance of the obligations detailed in the Schedule of Payments attached to the Appendix C to this Option Agreement, considering them extinguished, or, in any case, subrogate DUVAZ’s position as debtor before the creditors; and (iii) MPC shall pay the Company B Class “A” Shareholders the full unpaid balance of the price of the shares issued by Company B.
10.3 DUVAZ expressly waives the legal mortgage for the unpaid balance of the consideration agreed in Points 10.1 and 10.2 above.

14.1 Any and all past environmental obligations or liabilities disclosed by the Agents to MPC during the due diligence process referred to in Article One, including but not limited to all the environmental contingencies or liabilities disclosed in the Environmental Adaptation and Management Program (PAMA), in the comprehensive PAMA or in the Environmental Impact Studies of DUVAZ. In order to avoid any doubt, MPC acknowledges that it shall assume the environmental contingencies and liabilities associated with the Kingsmill tunnel, DUVAZ’s camps and plant, and the piles of material (mineralized or refuse) that may exist at the time the option is exercised.
14.2 All the current or future environmental obligations and liabilities related to the Properties.

If, due to any circumstance, the environmental liability closure plan or the mine closure plan is not updated on the date the option is exercised, MPC may deduct the amounts required to comply with such obligations (i) from the discounted flow to be paid if the option set forth in the Option Agreement is exercised, (ii) from the Escrow Account referred to in Article Five of the Stock Purchase Agreement, and (iii) then, if necessary, from the eventual royalties MPC had to pay in favour of DUVAZ or Xxxx XXXXXXXXX MARIÁTEGUI CANNY and Xxxxx XXXXXXXXX MARIÁTEGUI XXXXX, by virtue of the royalty agreements foreseen in Article Four to the Master Agreement. MPC may decide on which royalties the collection shall first be made.

FIFTEEN: Environmental Guarantees
As from the date on which this Option Agreement is executed and registered in the filing entries of all Assets subject matter of the Option, MPC shall provide the environmental guarantees corresponding to the compliance with the Law on the Mine Closure Plan, as amended, replaced and regulated of the Properties listed in Exhibit A hereto, only with respect to the Kingsmill tunnel waters.

SIXTEEN: Environmental obligations
16.1 Environmental obligations shall be understood to be those established in the laws on the protection of the environment and the health of persons and living things in general which are applicable to DUVAZ on the date of execution of the Master Agreement or the laws that may be enacted in the future, the obligations deriving from the environmental instruments approved and the environmental legislation in general aimed at protecting the health of living things in general. The obligations for the comprehensive projects in which DUVAZ is involved but does not have decision power, shall not be the responsibility of DUVAZ or the Agents, without prejudice to their economic obligations derived from their participation in said projects.
16.2 The Control Committee referred to in Article Seven shall have powers to supervise the environmental management of DUVAZ’s operations and to make recommendations on the management of such operations. DUVAZ and the Agents jointly and severally bind themselves to provide any information that may be required by the Control Committee.

17.1 Within three (3) months following receipt of the notice sent by MPC informing on its decision to exercise the transfer option, a baseline study shall be prepared, determining, from an environmental standpoint, the conditions in which the Properties detailed in Exhibit A to the Master Agreement are received. The baseline study shall be conducted by a company elected by DUVAZ from a list of three (3) companies proposed by MPC. To this effect, DUVAZ shall have five (5) business days to inform MPC in writing of the company it has elected. Otherwise, MPC shall be authorized to elect the company from the three (3) proposed companies. The cost of such study shall be borne by MPC. The study shall include the determination of the degree of compliance with the laws on the protection of the environment and the health of persons and living things in general which are applicable to DUVAZ on the date the Master Agreement is executed or the laws that may be enacted in the future, as well as the determination of the amount required to remedy any eventual environmental impact resulting from the non-compliance with the environmental instruments that may be in force on the date the Option is exercised. MPC shall establish
93
the terms of reference of the study to be carried out in order to determine the compliance by DUVAZ with the environmental obligations under the terms indicated in Article Sixteen hereof. DUVAZ and the Agents jointly and severally bind themselves to provide any information that may be necessary to carry out said study.
17.2 If, as a result of the baseline study, it is determined that DUVAZ’s new operations (those carried out after the date of execution hereof) were not executed in accordance with the applicable environmental instruments and were not adapted to any applicable environmental legislation that may be enacted in the future, MPC may deduct the costs determined by the study to adapt such operations to said environmental instruments (i) from the discounted flow to be paid if the Option set forth in the Option Agreement is exercised, (ii) from the Escrow Account referred to in Article Five of the Stock Purchase Agreement, and (iii) then, if necessary, from the eventual royalties MPC had to pay in favour of DUVAZ or the Class “A” Shareholders of Company B, by virtue of the royalty agreements foreseen in Article Four to the Master Agreement. MPC may decide on which royalties the collection shall first be made.
In no case shall the costs related to the comprehensive Kingsmill tunnel project be deductible, except for those obligations related to this project that are attributable to DUVAZ and that are enforceable on the date the Option is exercised.
17.3 The conclusions of the baseline study and the amount that may be necessary to be deducted for DUVAZ to fulfill its obligations mentioned in the foregoing paragraph are to be notified by MPC to DUVAZ within a term not exceeding five (5) business days following receipt of said baseline study.
EIGHTEEN: Compliance with the Regulations for the Registration of Mining Rights

Within this group the Assets subject matter of this Option Agreement are included. Furthermore, the considerations consist of different items and obligations assumed within the framework of a global agreement.
Without prejudice to the foregoing and with the sole purpose of enforcing the provisions set forth in the Regulations for the Registration of Mining Rights related to the obligation to assign value to each one of the Assets subject matter herein, the parties agree to assign the values indicated in Exhibit A to each one of the Assets.

Simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, the Sellers and MPC have entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) over 100% of the Class “A” shares issued by Company B representing 99% of the capital stock of Company B. On the other hand, Company B is the holder of the mining concessions detailed in Appendix A that constitutes an integral part hereof (the “Mining Rights”). By virtue of the said transfer of shares, MPC is the owner of Company B.
TWO:
By this Agreement, which shall be registered in the Filing Entry of each one of the Mining Rights, MPC undertakes to pay the Sellers a royalty on the effective production extracted form the Mining Rights (the “Royalties”) as from the commencement of the commercial operations over the Mining Rights, as defined in Article Four. MPC also commits itself to keep in force the registration of the Royalty in the filing entry of each one of the Mining Rights and renew them before their expiration dates whenever deemed necessary. The right to collect the Royalties shall correspond to each one of the Sellers in equal parts.
107
THREE: The Royalties to be paid shall be calculated based on the net sales in accordance with the copper (Cu) price established at the time of calculating them according to the following table:
Cu |
|
% |
<0.80 US$/Lb |
|
0.51 % |
0.8-1.10 US$/Lb |
|
(4.0 x Cu) – 2.69% |
>1.1 US$/Lb |
|
1.71 % |
How to determine ranges and determine the amounts to be paid:
3.1 The xxxxxx reference price shall be the average stated in US Dollars per pound of the cash prices (cash means) for the copper shown in the website of the London Metal Exchange during the semester prior to the period subject matter of the calculation.
3.2 The prices referred to in the preceding paragraph do not include the taxes charged to the sale of gold or any other ore.
3.3 The payment of the Royalties shall be enforceable for any act of commercialization of ores extracted from the Mining Rights, including those of sale, swap or any other method used by MPC or its successors, for valuable consideration or under gratuitous title.
3.4 In the event of producing ores different from copper, the equivalent amount of copper shall be added for determining the Royalties. This equivalence shall be obtained by using the average prices in the period in accordance with the calculation published by the Metals Bulletin, using the London Final for gold, the Handy & Xxxxxx for silver and the LME Settlement or its pertinent markets for copper, zinc, molybdenum and other metals.
FOUR:
The determination of the amount of Royalties to be paid shall be made from time to time every six (6) calendar months counted as from the commencement of the commercial operations over the Mining Rights. The commencement of the commercial operations shall be constituted by the first transfer, for valuable consideration, of the ore extracted from the Mining Rights.
The payment of the Royalties shall be verified in US Dollars within the fifteen (15) days following the expiration of the pertinent semester. The non-compliance with the total and prompt payment of the Royalties shall accrue an interest equivalent to the Libor rate plus 5%. The default interest shall be automatically accrued without any intimidation or proceeding by the Sellers.
The Sellers expressly waive the establishment of a legal mortgage that corresponds to the payment of the Royalties.
108
Two (2) or more consecutive or non-consecutive delays in the payments of the Royalties shall generate the Sellers’ right and MPC’s obligation or its successor to establish a mortgage over the Mining Rights or a pledge over the ores treated by MPC or its successor, at the discretion of the Sellers, for the unpaid amount, without prejudice to the exercise of any other right of the Sellers that could take place.
FIVE:
For the purposes of calculating the Royalties, the net sales referred to in Article Three shall be determined based on all the incomes received for the transfers made over the ores extracted from the Mining Rights, less: (i) the deductions for smelting and refining expenses, (ii) any tax created in the country that may be levied to the operation or to the local or export sales, currently in force or that may be created and that is effectively applied, (iii) the discounts for the usually deductible grades and for the losses caused by impurities, (iv) the transportation expenses from the processing plant to the loading port and - in case of export - from the Peruvian loading port to the place of destination of the products, (v) the brokerage expenses and sale commissions and the warehouse insurance expenses at the loading port to the port of destination for export, and (vi) the expenses incurred in the obtaining of samples.
SIX:
MPC or its successor(s) shall deliver to the Sellers within the first ten (10) days following the expiration of each calendar semester an authenticated copy of the pertinent parts of the Book of Sales and Incomes evidencing the sales made during the semester the payment was made corresponding to the ore extracted from the mining rights.
Likewise, within the first five (5) days of April of each year, MPC or its successor(s) shall deliver to the Sellers its audited financial statements or an authenticated copy of the Income Tax Return of the previous year. In addition, the Sellers may request the documents reflecting the incomes that would have been obtained for the transfer of the ores extracted from the Mining Rights and the deductible expenses for the calculations of the Royalty incurred in their marketing, without prejudice to the power to appoint auditors that at their cost may revise the important financial information for determining the Royalties.
The submission of false information by MPC or its successor(s) shall generate the Sellers’ right to terminate the Stock Purchase Agreement described in Article One. False information shall be understood as the information provided with the intention of reducing the amount of the Royalties the Sellers would receive. In such sense, false information shall not be understood as such inaccurate information derived from material errors in its preparation or that corresponding to the interpretations of facts or rights made by MPC which do not coincide with that of the Sellers.
109
SEVEN:
The Sellers shall have the right to object the determination of the amounts to be paid, provided that such objection be carried out within the ninety (90) days following receipt of the documents referred to in the preceding Article. If the objection was admitted by a margin greater than 5%, MPC or its successor(s) shall pay the Sellers for the expenses incurred in visits, inspections, samplings, analysis, calculations, audits, collections and other proceedings related to the said determination.
EIGHT:
MPC and its successor(s) may mix the ore extracted from the Mining Rights with those extracted from other areas. The calculation of the tonnage extracted from the Mining Rights shall be carried out by MPC or its successor(s) through a topographic survey with LASER Total Stations and the average grades shall be calculated based on the tests obtained from the exploitation drillings. MPC or its successor(s) shall provide the Sellers with copies of all the samples and shall allow them to have a representative during such procedures. Once the tonnage and the average grade of the ore extracted from the Mining Rights are obtained, the average metallurgic recovery of the same period shall be applied over them. MPC or its successor(s) undertake(s) to carry out their operations pursuant to the best geological, mining and metallurgic practices in order to maximize such recoveries.
Sellers may, at their own cost and at any time, prior notice to MPC three (3) business days in advance, and once the first transfer of the ore extracted from the Mining Rights is carried out, conduct the visits and inspections they deem necessary for the Mining Rights. This right shall be extended to the plant and/or to the lixiviation pile in which the ores are processed once the exploitation of the Mining Rights has commenced. The visit to the plant shall be limited to the verification of the treated volumes, the head grades, the contents of the processed ores, and the recoveries of the ores extracted from the Mining Rights. Under no circumstance and under their own risk, the visits and inspections of the Sellers may interfere with the exploitation and treatment works of MPC or its successor(s). The Sellers may gather samples of these visits and inspections, which may be carried out directly or through the person appointed by them for such purpose together with the consultants they deem necessary. The Sellers or the persons hired by the Sellers in order to act individually shall observe the security indications provided by MPC.
The visits and inspections of the Sellers may not take more than six (6) hours each.
NINE:
The right to collect the Royalties shall be created as from the time the ore extracted from the Mining Rights is sold pursuant to Article Four and shall subsist while MPC or its successors carry out such sale. MPC shall notify the Sellers of the time the first transfer for valuable consideration of the ore extracted from the Mining Rights is made. For the purposes hereof, it shall be understood that the depletion of the recoverable reserves at a certain moment shall not cause the termination of the right to collect the
110
Royalties on the effective production if it is restarted in the future. The suspension of the exploitation of the Mining Rights entails the suspension of the payment of Royalties as from the time the last ore extraction from the Mining Rights is paid. It is understood between the parties that there is no minimum production obligation for MPC or its successors and that the production shall be carried out only in accordance with the criteria established by MPC and its successors.
TEN:
MPC may transfer, assign, levy or encumber to Joint Venture one or more of the Mining Rights, provided that whoever acquires the right to exploit them unconditionally and irrevocably assumes the obligations corresponding to MPC pursuant to this Agreement, especially those regarding the payment of Royalties. In accordance with Article 926 of the Civil Code, the transfer, assignment, encumbrance or any other act of disposition or management over one or more of the Mining Rights shall only be effective as from the time on which the acknowledgment by the acquirer of the exploitation rights of its obligation to pay the Royalties and to assume all the other obligations of MPC derived herefrom are registered in the pertinent filing entry for each mining concession forming part of the Mining Rights.
MPC and its successor(s) shall communicate the Sellers each time they carry out an act of disposition over the Mining Rights and MPC shall irrevocably grant the Sellers the power to request the nullity of such acts if the acquirer of the exploitation rights has not complied with the acknowledgment specified in the preceding paragraph.
If any of the Mining Rights was granted or if their exploitation was assigned to a third party that has not expressly assumed MPC’s obligations derived herefrom and has not registered them in the pertinent filing entry, then, MPC or its successor that would have had the exploitation rights over it or over the Mining Rights subject matter of the granting or assignment shall be responsible for the payment of the Royalties.
The provisions set forth in this Article shall be applicable to all the acts of mining disposition or assignment that from time to time may be entered into over any of the Mining Rights and is enforceable for all those that from time to time acquire the right to exploit any of the Mining Rights.
Pursuant to the provisions of Article 20, paragraph b) of the Regulations for the Registration of Mining Rights approved by Resolution of the National Superintendency of the Public Records Office 052-2004-SUNARP/SN, the provisions set forth in this Article shall be registered in the pertinent filing entry of the card of each mining concession included in Exhibit A. MPC or whoever has substituted this company in the right to exploit the Mining Rights shall be obliged to renew the registration of the Royalty and the limitation provided in this Article whenever deemed necessary, sixty (60) days before the expiration of such entry, in the card of all the Mining Rights. Failure to comply with such obligation shall grant the Agents the power to terminate the Stock Purchase Agreement referred to in the Article One.
111
ELEVEN:
The sales of ores extracted from the Mining Rights made to the refineries and foundries in which MPC or its successor has any affiliation shall be made at the prices and according to best terms obtained for the Sellers if such affiliation did not exist. Likewise, all the deductible costs of the net sales shall be made at market value, including the maquila, awards, sanctions and commissions.
TWELVE:
MPC or its successor(s) may carry out hedging operations on the production extracted from the Mining Rights. However, for the purposes of calculating the Royalty, the determination of the amounts to be paid and the payments shall be carried out taking into consideration the spot quotation applicable in accordance with Point 3.4 of Article Three.
THIRTEEN:
MPC or its successor(s) may receive the payment of the price for their net sales through provisional statements of the amounts to be paid, and may pay the Royalty based thereupon; therefore, it is expressly agreed that in the event that any final statement of the amounts to be paid was negative with respect to the provisional statement of the amounts to be paid, the amount that the Sellers would have eventually received in excess in any semester shall be informed to the Sellers within the fifteen (15) days after the final determination of the amounts to be paid and shall be deducted from the amount that corresponds to the Sellers for royalties in the following semester.
FOURTEEN:
MPC and its successor(s) are bound to maintain the Mining Rights in force at all times and to defend its effectiveness and title. In case they intend to waive or incur, at any time, in any cause for terminating any of the mining concessions which form part of the Mining Rights, whether in whole or in part, they must previously offer said rights to the Sellers so that within a term of thirty (30) business days the Sellers may answer if they intend to acquire the said rights for an added value of US$ 1 (One US Dollar). Failure to answer within the established term shall exempt MPC or its successor(s) from this obligation.
FIFTEEN:
For the objections filed pursuant to the provisions Article Seven, the parties shall submit the final and conclusive decision for the correct determination of the amounts to be paid to a specialized firm designated by MPC among three top specialized firms, which shall be presented by the Sellers to that purpose. The fees to be paid to such firm shall be assumed in equal parts by the Sellers and MPC.
112
SIXTEEN:
All the notary’s and filing fees arising from putting this document into the form of a notarially recorded instrument and the filing of this agreement shall be assumed in equal parts. The notary’s and filing fees that may be generated for the registration of the obligations to pay the Royalties and to comply with other MPC’s obligations hereunder by a third party shall be assumed by MPC.
SEVENTEEN:
The powers granted to the Sellers hereunder shall be exercised jointly by the Sellers and their successors.
EIGHTEEN:
The parties expressly agree that this Agreement may be terminated in the event of default or the partial, late or defective compliance with any of the obligations assumed herein. If the party affected by the non-compliance or the partial, late or defective compliance decides to terminate this agreement, it shall send a notarial letter to the other party requesting it to satisfy the non-fulfilled obligation or the obligation that was partially, lately or defectively fulfilled within a term of no less than fifteen (15) days, under penalty of automatically terminating the Agreement. If the obligation is not fulfilled within the established term, this Agreement shall be terminated, without prejudice to the right to demand the indemnity for damages and/or loss of profit, if applicable.
The parties expressly agree that if the Sellers terminate the Agreement based on the grounds of default or on the partial, late or defective compliance by MPC with the payment of the Royalties during three (3) or more consecutive semesters, the ownership of the Mining Rights shall be automatically transferred in favour of the Sellers or their successors, without any subsequent payment by the Sellers.
NINETEEN:
Any outstanding payment obligation by DUVAZ, Xxxx XXXXXXXXX MARIÁTEGUI XXXXXX, identified by National Identity Card (DNI) 00000000 and Xxxxx Xxxxxxx XXXXXXXXX MARIÁTEGUI XXXXXX, identified by National Identity Card (DNI) 00000000 (the “Agents”) or by the Sellers by virtue of the Master Agreement entered into on [·], the Stock Purchase Agreement and the Option Agreement, signed simultaneously with this Agreement may be compensated with the obligation to pay the Royalties by MPC by virtue hereof.

EXHIBIT H TO THE MASTER AGREEMENT
You are hereby requested in your capacity as Notary Public to enter in your Notarial Record Book one evidencing the Establishment of Royalties entered into by and between SOCIEDAD MINERA AUSTRIA DUVAZ, identified by Tax ID Number (RUC) 20100102171, with principal place of business for the purposes hereof at Xx. Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxxx Xx. 000, Xxx Xxxxx, acting by and through Xxxxx XXXXXXXXX MARIÁTEGUI XXXXXX, identified by National Identity Card (DNI) 00000000 and Xxxxxxx XXXXXXXXX MARIÁTEGUI CANNY, identified by National Identity Card (DNI) 00000000, as per powers of attorney filed in Entry 00000000 of the Registry of Companies in and for Lima and El Callao, and specifically in the Minutes of the Shareholders’ Meeting of SOCIEDAD MINERA AUSTRIA DUVAZ S.A.C., dated March 14, 2006 (“DUVAZ”); and MINERA PERÚ COPPER S.A., identified by Tax ID Number (RUC) 20506675457, with principal place of business at Xx. Xxx Xxxxx Xxxxx 0000, Xxx Xxxxx, acting by and through Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx XXXXXX, identified by Alien Registration Card (CE) 000084967 and Xxxxxx X. XXXXXXX, identified by Alien Registration Card (CE) 114608, as per powers of attorney filed on Entry 11532703 of the Registry of Companies in and for Lima and El Callao (hereinafter “MPC”).
This Agreement is entered into under the following terms and conditions:
ONE:
On [·], MPC and DUVAZ entered into an Option Agreement (the “Option Agreement”). By virtue of said Agreement, DUVAZ issued in favour of MPC an option for the transfer of the ownership rights of the mining concessions detailed in Appendix A that constitutes an integral part hereof (the “Mining Rights”).
On [·], MPC informed DUVAZ its intention to execute the option subject matter of the Option Agreement for all the Mining Rights. Thus, simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, the Parties execute an Agreement for the Transfer of Mining Rights in favour of MPC (the “Transfer Agreement”).
TWO:
By this Agreement, which shall be registered in the Filing Entry of each one of the Mining Rights, MPC undertakes to pay DUVAZ a royalty on the effective production extracted form the Mining Rights (the “Royalties”) as from the commencement of the commercial operations over the Mining Rights, as defined in Article Four. MPC also commits itself to keep in force the registration of the Royalty in the filing entry of each one of the Mining Rights and renew them before their expiration dates whenever deemed necessary.
THREE:
The Royalties to be paid shall be calculated based on the net sales in accordance with the copper (Cu) price established at the time of calculating them according to the following table:
122
Cu |
|
% |
|
<0.80 US$/Lb |
|
0.51% |
|
0.8-1.10 US$/Lb |
|
(4.0 x Cu) – 2.69% |
|
>1.1 US$/Lb |
|
1.71% |
|
How to determine ranges and determine the amounts to be paid:
3.1 The xxxxxx reference price shall be the average stated in US Dollars per pound of the cash prices (cash means) for the copper shown in the website of the London Metal Exchange (LME) during the semester prior to the period subject matter of the calculation.
3.2 The prices referred to in the preceding paragraph do not include the taxes charged to the sale of gold or any other ore.
3.3 The payment of the Royalties shall be enforceable for any act of commercialization of ores extracted from the Mining Rights, including those of sale, swap or any other method used by MPC or its successors, for valuable consideration or under gratuitous title.
3.4 In the event of producing ores different from copper, the equivalent amount of copper shall be added for determining the Royalties. This equivalence shall be obtained by using the average prices in the period in accordance with the calculation published by the Metals Bulletin, using the London Final for gold, the Handy & Xxxxxx for silver and the LME Settlement or its pertinent markets for copper, zinc, molybdenum and other metals.
FOUR:
The determination of the amount of Royalties to be paid shall be made from time to time every six (6) calendar months counted as from the commencement of the business operations over the Mining Rights. The commencement of the business operations shall be constituted by the first transfer, for valuable consideration, of the ore extracted from the Mining Rights.
The payment of the Royalties shall be verified in US Dollars within the fifteen (15) days following the expiration of the pertinent semester. The non-compliance with the total and prompt payment of the Royalties shall accrue an interest equivalent to the LIBOR rate plus 5%. The default interest shall be automatically accrued without any intimidation or proceeding by DUVAZ.
DUVAZ expressly waive the establishment of a legal mortgage that corresponds to the payment of the Royalties.
Two (2) or more consecutive or non-consecutive delays in the payments of the Royalties shall generate DUVAZ’ right and MPC’s obligation or its successor to establish a mortgage over the Mining Rights or a pledge over the ores treated by MPC
123
or its successor, at the discretion of DUVAZ, for the unpaid amount, without prejudice to the exercise of any other right of DUVAZ that could take place.
FIVE:
For the purposes of calculating the Royalties, the net sales referred to in Article Three shall be determined based on all the incomes received for the transfers made over the ores extracted from the Mining Rights, less: (i) the deductions for smelting and refining expenses, (ii) any tax created in the country that may be levied to the operation or to the local or export sales, currently in force or that may be created and that is effectively applied, (iii) the discounts for the usually deductible grades and for the losses caused by impurities, (iv) the transportation expenses from the processing plant to the loading port and - in case of export - from the Peruvian loading port to the place of destination of the products, (v) the brokerage expenses and sale commissions and the warehouse insurance expenses at the loading port to the port of destination for export, and (vi) the expenses incurred in the obtaining of samples.
SIX:
MPC or its successor(s) shall deliver to DUVAZ within the first ten (10) days following the expiration of each calendar semester an authenticated copy of the pertinent parts of the Book of Sales and Incomes evidencing the sales made during the semester the payment was made corresponding to the ore extracted from the mining rights.
Likewise, within the first five (5) days of April of each year, MPC or its successor(s) shall deliver to DUVAZ its audited financial statements or an authenticated copy of the Income Tax Return of the previous year. In addition, DUVAZ may request the documents reflecting the incomes that would have been obtained for the transfer of the ores extracted from the Mining Rights and the deductible expenses for the calculations of the Royalties incurred in their marketing, without prejudice to the power to appoint auditors that at their cost may revise the important financial information for determining the Royalties.
The submission of false information by MPC or its successor(s) shall generate DUVAZ’ right to terminate Agreement for the Transfer of Mining Rights described in Article One. False information shall be understood as the information provided with the intention of reducing the amount of the Royalties DUVAZ would receive. In such sense, false information shall not be understood as such inaccurate information derived from material errors in its preparation or that corresponding to the interpretations of facts or rights made by MPC which do not coincide with that of DUVAZ.
SEVEN:
DUVAZ shall have the right to object the determination of the amounts to be paid, provided that such objection is carried out within the ninety (90) days following receipt of the documents referred to in the preceding Article. If the objection was admitted by a margin greater than 5%, MPC or its successor(s) shall pay DUVAZ for the expenses
124
incurred in visits, inspections, samplings, analysis, calculations, audits, collections and other proceedings related to the said determination.
EIGHT:
MPC and its successor(s) may mix the ore extracted from the Mining Rights with those extracted from other areas. The calculation of the tonnage extracted from the Mining Rights shall be carried out by MPC or its successor(s) through a topographic survey with LASER Total Stations and the average grades shall be calculated based on the tests obtained from the exploitation drillings. MPC or its successor(s) shall provide DUVAZ with copies of all the samples and shall allow it to have a representative during such procedures. Once the tonnage and the average grade of the ore extracted from the Mining Rights are obtained, the average metallurgic recovery of the same period shall be applied over them. MPC or its successor(s) undertake(s) to carry out their operations pursuant to the best geological, mining and metallurgic practices in order to maximize such recoveries.
DUVAZ may, at their own cost and at any time, prior notice to MPC three (3) business days in advance, and once the first transfer of the ore extracted from the Mining Rights is carried out, conduct the visits and inspections they deem necessary for the Mining Rights. This right shall be extended to the plant and/or to the lixiviation pile in which the ores are processed once the exploitation of the Mining Rights has commenced. The visit to the plant shall be limited to the verification of the treated volumes, the head grades, the contents of the processed ores, and the recoveries of the ores extracted from the Mining Rights. Under no circumstance and under their own risk, the visits and inspections of the DUVAZ may interfere with the exploitation and treatment works of MPC or its successor(s). DUVAZ may gather samples of these visits and inspections, which may be carried out directly or through the person appointed by them for such purpose together with the consultants they deem necessary. DUVAZ or the persons hired by the DUVAZ in order to act individually shall observe the security indications provided by MPC.
The visits and inspections of the DUVAZ may not take more than six (6) hours each.
NINE:
The right to collect the Royalties shall be created as from the time the ore extracted from the Mining Rights is sold pursuant to Article Four and shall subsist while MPC or its successors carry out such sale. MPC shall notify the DUVAZ of the time the first transfer for valuable consideration of the ore extracted from the Mining Rights is made. For the purposes hereof, it shall be understood that the depletion of the recoverable reserves at a certain moment shall not cause the termination of the right to collect the Royalties on the effective production if it is restarted in the future. The suspension of the exploitation of the Mining Rights entails the suspension of the payment of Royalties as from the time the last ore extraction from the Mining Rights is paid. It is understood between the parties that there is no minimum production obligation for MPC or its successors and that the production shall be carried out only in accordance with the criteria established by MPC and its successors.
125
TEN:
MPC may transfer, assign, levy or encumber to Joint Venture one or more of the Mining Rights, provided that whoever acquires the right to exploit them unconditionally and irrevocably assumes the obligations corresponding to MPC pursuant to this Agreement, especially those regarding the payment of Royalties. In accordance with Section 926 of the Civil Code, the transfer, assignment, encumbrance or any other act of disposition or management over one or more of the Mining Rights shall only be effective as from the time on which the acknowledgment by the acquirer of the exploitation rights of its obligation to pay the Royalties and to assume all the other obligations of MPC derived herefrom are registered in the pertinent filing entry for each mining concession forming part of the Mining Rights.
MPC and its successor(s) shall communicate DUVAZ each time they carry out an act of disposition over the Mining Rights, and MPC shall irrevocably grant DUVAZ the power to request the nullity of such acts if the acquirer of the exploitation rights has not complied with the acknowledgment specified in the preceding paragraph.
If any of the Mining Rights was granted or if their exploitation was assigned to a third party that has not expressly assumed MPC’s obligations derived herefrom and has not registered them in the pertinent filing entry, then, MPC or its successor that would have had the exploitation rights over it or over the Mining Rights subject matter of the granting or assignment shall be responsible for the payment of the Royalties.
The provisions set forth in this Article shall be applicable to all the acts of mining disposition or assignment that from time to time may be entered into over any of the Mining Rights and is enforceable for all those that from time to time acquire the right to exploit any of the Mining Rights.
Pursuant to the provisions of Article 20, paragraph b) of the Regulations for the Registration of Mining Rights approved by Resolution of the National Superintendency of the Public Records Office 052-2004-SUNARP/SN, the provisions set forth in this Article shall be registered in the pertinent filing entry of the card of each mining concession included in Exhibit A. MPC or whoever has substituted this company in the right to exploit the Mining Rights shall be obliged to renew the registration of the Royalty and the limitation provided in this Article whenever deemed necessary, sixty (60) days before the expiration of such entry, in the card of all the Mining Rights. Failure to comply with such obligation shall grant DUVAZ the power to terminate the Agreement for the Transfer of Mining Rights referred to in the Article One.
ELEVEN:
The sales of ores extracted from the Mining Rights made to the refineries and foundries in which MPC or its successor has any affiliation shall be made at the prices and according to best terms obtained for DUVAZ if such affiliation did not exist. Likewise, all the deductible costs of the net sales shall be made at market value, including the maquila, awards, sanctions and commissions.
126
TWELVE:
MPC or its successor(s) may carry out hedging operations on the production extracted from the Mining Rights. However, for the purposes of calculating the Royalty, the determination of the amounts to be paid and the payments shall be carried out taking into consideration the spot quotation applicable in accordance with Point 3.4 of Article Three.
THIRTEEN:
MPC or its successor(s) may receive the payment of the price for their net sales through provisional statements of the amounts to be paid, and may pay the Royalty based thereupon; therefore, it is expressly agreed that in the event that any final statement of the amounts to be paid was negative with respect to the provisional statement of the amounts to be paid, the amount that DUVAZ would have eventually received in excess in any semester shall be informed to DUVAZ within the fifteen (15) days after the final determination of the amounts to be paid and shall be deducted from the amount that corresponds to DUVAZ for royalties in the following semester.
FOURTEEN:
MPC and its successor(s) are bound to maintain the Mining Rights in force at all times and to defend its effectiveness and title. In case they intend to waive or incur, at any time, in any cause for terminating any of the mining concessions which form part of the Mining Rights, whether in whole or in part, they must previously offer said rights to DUVAZ so that within a term of thirty (30) business days DUVAZ may answer if they intend to acquire the said rights for an added value of US$ 1 (One US Dollar). Failure to answer within the established term shall exempt MPC or its successor(s) from this obligation.
FIFTEEN:
For the objections filed pursuant to the provisions Article Seven, the parties shall submit the final and conclusive decision for the correct determination of the amounts to be paid to a specialized firm designated by MPC among three top specialized firms, which shall be presented by the DUVAZ to that purpose. The fees to be paid to such firm shall be assumed in equal parts by DUVAZ and MPC.
SIXTEEN:
All the notary’s and filing fees arising from putting this document into the form of a notarially recorded instrument and the filing of this agreement shall be assumed in equal parts. The notary’s and filing fees that may be generated for the registration of the obligations to pay the Royalties and to comply with other MPC’s obligations hereunder by a third party shall be assumed by MPC.
127
SEVENTEEN:
The powers granted to DUVAZ hereunder shall be exercised without distinction by any of the attorneys or legal representatives of DUVAZ.
EIGHTEEN:
The parties expressly agree that this Agreement may be terminated in the event of default or the partial, late or defective compliance with any of the obligations assumed herein. If the party affected by the non-compliance or the partial, late or defective compliance decides to terminate this agreement, it shall send a notarial letter to the other party requesting it to satisfy the non-fulfilled obligation or the obligation that was partially, lately or defectively fulfilled within a term of no less than fifteen (15) days, under penalty of automatically terminating the Agreement. If the obligation is not fulfilled within the established term, this Agreement shall be terminated, without prejudice to the right to demand the indemnity for damages and/or loss of profit, if applicable.
The parties expressly agree that if DUVAZ terminate the Agreement based on the grounds of default or on the partial, late or defective compliance by MPC with the payment of the Royalties during three (3) or more consecutive semesters, the ownership of the Mining Rights shall be automatically transferred in favour of DUVAZ or their successors, without any subsequent payment by DUVAZ.
NINETEEN:
Any outstanding payment obligation by DUVAZ, Xxxx XXXXXXXXX MARIÁTEGUI XXXXXX, Xxxxx Xxxxxxx XXXXXXXXX MARIÁTEGUI XXXXXX or by Xxxx XXXXXXXXX MARIÁTEGUI CANNY and Xxxxx XXXXXXXXX MARIÁTEGUI XXXXX by virtue of the Master Agreement entered into on [·], the Stock Purchase Agreement and the Option Agreement entered into on [·] may be compensated with the obligation to pay the Royalties by MPC by virtue hereof.

5.3 Assignment of contract
The parties agree that any of them may assign this without the prior written consent of the other party, except for the assumption described in the following paragraph.
5.4 Headings
The headings of the Articles have been inserted for convenience of reference only and in no case shall they affect the application or interpretation thereof, since the full text of the Article and the general purpose of this Agreement shall govern.
5.5 Partial Nullity
The invalidity, nullity or voidability of any Article or section hereof shall not affect or impair the enforceability of the remaining Articles hereof. Furthermore, it is the intention of the parties to replace any invalid, ineffective or voidable term, section or Article for a valid and enforceable Article or section in terms that are as similar as possible to those of the invalid, ineffective or voidable Article or section.
Accordingly, in the event that any section or Article of this Agreement is declared invalid or unenforceable by a competent court, judge, authority or arbitrator, the parties shall agree on their replacement for another valid Article, but with terms and effect that are as similar as possible to those of the original Article.
SIX: Applicable Law and Jurisdiction
6.1 Applicable Law
This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Peru.
192
6.2 Applicable Jurisdiction
The parties hereby convene that they shall directly settle in good faith any dispute arising between them in relation to the interpretation, execution, validity or efficacy of this Agreement.
Should the parties in dispute fail to reach an agreement within a term of fifteen (15) calendar days, the dispute shall be settled by a de jure arbitration, at the request of either party, subject to the following rules:
(a) The arbitration shall be conducted by an arbitration court consisting of three (3) members.
(b) The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the Procedural Regulations of the National and International Settlement and Arbitration Center of the Lima Chamber of Commerce (hereinafter the “Center”) and in the event of its incapacity, by the rules established by the arbitrators.
(c) Each party shall appoint an arbitrator and the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the arbitrators thus designated. The third arbitrator shall preside over the arbitration court.
Failure by either of the parties to appoint their respective arbitrators within a term of ten (10) calendar days, as of the date on which they are notified by the other party, indicating their intention to adopt this Article and designating their respective arbitrator, the arbitrator shall be appointed by the Center.
Furthermore, failure by the two appointed arbitrators to designate the third arbitrator within a term of ten (10) calendar days, as from the date of appointment of the latter arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the Center.
(d) In the event of the need to designate a replacement arbitrator, for any reason whatsoever, he shall be designated following the same procedure fixed for the designation of the arbitrator being replaced.
(e) Initially, the fees of the arbitrators must be paid by the parties in equal proportions. After the issue of the arbitration award, the unsuccessful party must reimburse said fees to the other, pursuant to the provisions set forth in paragraph (g) of this Article and to the provisions contained in the arbitration award.
Without prejudice to the provisions established in the foregoing paragraph, the parties convene that should any counterclaim be filed during the conduction of the arbitration proceeding, to increase the fees initially fixed by the arbitrators, the party proposing such counterclaim must exclusively pay the said additional fees. If the party proposing the counterclaim fails to
193
pay such fees, the arbitration proceeding shall continue its course as if said counterclaim had never been filed.
It is hereby established that should the party proposing the counterclaim be favoured with the issue of the final award, it shall also be entitled to the reimbursement of the additional fees of the arbitrators, pursuant to the provisions established in paragraph (g) of this Article and to the provisions contained in the arbitration award.
(f) The costs incurred for the production of evidence during the conduction of the proceeding shall be borne by the party offering the evidence, without prejudice to the right to be reimbursed for said costs, pursuant to the provisions established in paragraph (g) of this Article and to the provisions contained in the arbitration award.
(g) The costs and fees of the arbitration shall be borne by the unsuccessful party, including the fees of the arbitrators, the legal advisors and any other cost or expense derived from the conduction of said proceeding. The arbitration award must include its provisions on this requirement.
(h) The arbitration court shall have a term of ninety (90) business days, as from the date of its installation to issue the respective arbitration award, which is final and conclusive. The arbitration court may extend the term to issue the arbitration award by up to thirty (30) additional business days.
The parties may mutually agree to request the arbitration court to order an extension of the proceeding as many times as they may deem pertinent and for the terms that they may deem convenient, in which case, the arbitration court may increase the amount of its fees.
Furthermore, the arbitration court may be entrusted to accurately settle the dispute.
(i) The parties agree that should either of them file a motion to annul or challenge the arbitration award, it will be required to grant a joint and several letter of guarantee issued by a first-rate bank in favour of the other, in the amount of US$1,000,000 (One Million US Dollars). The said Letter of Guarantee shall be granted prior to filing any appeal of this kind and shall remain in force for a minimum of one (1) year and the secured party must renew it in the event that the process for annulment has not ended within the original term of the Letter of Guarantee. The Letter of Guarantee shall be kept by a notary public of Lima selected by the party granting it. The notary public shall be instructed not to deliver the Letter of Guarantee to the other party, unless a firm and admitted court ruling has been issued against the party that filed the appeal for reversal of the arbitration award.
The letter of guarantee shall be returned to the party that filed the appeal for annulment or challenge, only if it ends with a firm and admitted court
194
ruling in favour of said party. Otherwise, the letter of guarantee shall be executed in favour of the party that filed no appeal and shall be considered a penalty by the parties. The penalty referred to herein shall not curtail the amount of the damages, costs or fees due to the party who did not file the appeal.
(j) The arbitration shall be conducted in the city of Lima, Peru, and the language to be used in the arbitration proceeding shall be Spanish.
Furthermore, the parties agree that should the participation of the regular judges and courts be mandatory, the parties expressly submit to the jurisdiction of the judges and courts of the judicial district of Lima Cercado, waiving the jurisdiction of their domiciles.
You are hereby requested, in your capacity as Notary Public, to include the clauses provided for by law, forwarding a notice to the Public Records Office for registration thereof.
