-12-
TRANSFERS
---------
9. (a) The Optionee may at any time either during
the Option Period or thereafter, sell, transfer or otherwise
dispose of all or any portion of its interest in and to
the Property and this Agreement provided that any
purchaser, grantee or transferee of any such interest
shall have first delivered to the Optionor its
agreement relating to this Agreement and to the
Property, containing:
(i) a covenant to perform all the obligations
of the Optionee to be performed under this Agreement in
respect of the interest to be acquired by it from
the Optionee to the same extent as if this Agreement
had been originally executed by such purchaser, grantee
or transferee; and
(ii) a provision subjecting any further sale,
transfer or other disposition of such interest in the
Property and this Agreement or any portion thereof
to the restrictions contained in this paragraph (a).
(b) No assignment by the Optionee of any interest
less than its entire interest in this Agreement and in the
Property shall, as between the Optionee and the
Optionor, discharge it from any of its obligations
hereunder, but upon the transfer by the Optionee of the
entire interest at the time held by it in this
Agreement, whether to one or more transferees and
whether in one or in a number of successive transfers,
the Optionee shall be deemed to be discharged from all
obligations hereunder save and except for the
fulfillment of contractual commitments accrued due
prior to the date on which the Optionee shall have no
further interest in this Agreement.
(c) If the Optionor should receive a bona fide
offer from an independent third party (the "Proposed Purchaser")

-13-
all or a part of its interest in the Property, which
offer the Optionor desires to accept, or if the
Optionor intends to sell all or a part of its interest
in the Property:
(i) The Optionor shall first offer (the "Offer")
such interest in writing to the Optionee upon terms no
less favourable than those offered by the Proposed Purchaser
or intended to be offered by the Optionor, as the case may be.
(ii) The Offer shall specify the price, terms and
conditions of such sale, the name of the Proposed Purchaser
and shall, in the case of an intended offer by the Optionor,
disclose the person or persons to whom the Optionor intends to
offer its interest and, if the offer received by the
Optionor from the Proposed Purchaser provides for any
consideration payable to the Optionor otherwise than in cash,
the Offer shall include the Optionor's good faith estimate of
the cash equivalent of the non-cash consideration.
(iii) If within a period of 60 days of the
receipt of the Offer the Optionee notifies the Optionor in
writing that it will accept the Offer, the Optionor shall
be bound to sell such interest to the Optionee on the terms
and conditions of the Offer. If the Offer so accepted
by the Optionee contains the Optionor's good faith estimate
of the cash equivalent of the non cash consideration as
aforesaid, and if the Optionee disagrees with the
Optionor's best estimate, the Optionee shall so
notify the Optionor at the time of acceptance and
the Optionee shall, in such notice, specify what
it considers, in good faith, the fair cash
equivalent to be and the resulting total purchase
price. If the Optionee so notifies the Optionor,
the acceptance by the Optionee shall be effective
and binding upon the Optionor and the Optionee,
and the cash equivalent of any such non-cash
-14-
consideration shall be determined by binding
arbitration and shall be payable by the Optionee,
subject to prepayment as hereinafter provided,
within 60 days following its determination by
arbitration. The Optionee shall in such case pay
to the Optionor, against receipt of an absolute
transfer of clear and unencumbered title to the
interest of the Optionor being sold, the total
purchase price which is specified in its notice to
the Optionor and such amount shall be credited to
the amount determined following arbitration of the
cash equivalent of any non-cash consideration.
(iv) If the Optionee fails to notify the
Optionor before the expiration of the time limited
therefor that it will purchase the interest offered,
the Optionor may sell and transfer such interest to
the Proposed Purchaser at the price and on the
terms and conditions specified in the Offer for a
period of 60 days, but the terms of this paragraph
shall again apply to such interest if the sale to
the Proposed Purchaser is not completed within
such 60 days.
(v) Any sale hereunder shall be conditional upon the
Proposed Purchaser delivering a written
undertaking to the Optionee, in form and substance
satisfactory to its counsel, to be bound by the
terms and conditions of this Agreement.
SURRENDER OF PROPERTY INTERESTS PRIOR TO TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT
-----------------------------------------------------------------
10. The Optionor may at any time during the Option Period
elect to abandon any one or more of the mineral claims comprised
in the Property by giving notice to the Optionee of such
intention. Any claims so abandoned shall be in good standing

at least 6 months from the date of abandonment. Upon
-15-

for all purposes of this Agreement cease to form part of the
Property.

regulations restricting normal operations, shipping
delays or any other reason or reasons, other than lack
of funds, beyond the control of the Optionee, the time
limited for the performance by the Optionee of its
obligations hereunder shall be extended by a period of
time equal in length to the period of each such
prevention or delay, but nothing herein shall discharge
the Optionee from its obligations hereunder to maintain
the Property in good standing;
(b) The Optionee shall give prompt notice to the Optionor
of each event of force majeure and upon cessation of
such event shall furnish to the Optionor with notice to
that effect together with particulars of the number of
days by which the obligations of the Optionee hereunder
have been extended by virtue of such event of force
majeure and all preceding events of force majeure.

13. No information furnished by the Optionee to the
Optionor hereunder in respect of the activities carried out on the
Property by the Optionee shall be published or disclosed by the
Optionor without the prior written consent of the Optionee, but

be unreasonably withheld, and shall not be withheld in respect of
information required to be publicly disclosed pursuant to
applicable securities or corporation laws, regulations or
policies.

the provisions hereof, that any party intending to

(e) The party desiring arbitration shall appoint one
arbitrator, and shall notify the other party of such

two arbitrators so named, before proceeding to act,
shall, within 30 days of the appointment of the last
appointed arbitrator, unanimously agree on the
appointment of a third arbitrator to act with them and
be chairman of the arbitration herein provided for. If
the other party shall fail to appoint an arbitrator
within 15 days after receiving notice of the
appointment of the first arbitrator, the first
arbitrator shall be the only arbitrator. If the two
arbitrators appointed by the parties shall be unable to
-17-
agree on the appointment of the chairman, the chairman
shall be appointed under the provisions of the
Commercial Arbitration Act of British Columbia. Except
as specifically otherwise provided in this section, the
arbitration herein provided for shall be conducted in
accordance with such Act. The chairman, or in the case

arbitrator, shall fix a time and place in Vancouver,
British Columbia, for the purpose of hearing the
evidence and representations of the parties, and he
shall preside over the arbitration and determine all
questions of procedure not provided for under such Act
or this section. After hearing any evidence and
representations that the parties may submit, the single
arbitrator, or the arbitrators, as the case may be,
shall make an award and reduce the same to writing, and
deliver one copy thereof to each of the parties. The
expense of the arbitration shall be paid as specified
in the award.
(f) The parties agree that the award of a majority
of the arbitrators, or in the case of a single arbitrator, of
such arbitrator, shall be final and binding upon each
of them.
DEFAULT
-------
15. If at any time during the Option Period the Optionee
is in default of any provision in this Agreement (other than the
provisions of sub-paragraph 4(b) for which no notice of default
need be given), the Optionor may terminate this Agreement, but
only if:
(g) it shall have first given to the Optionee a notice of
default containing particulars of the obligation which
the Optionee has not performed, or the warranty
breached; and
-18-
(h) the Optionee has not, within 45 days following
delivery of such notice of default, cured such default or
commenced proceedings to cure such default by
appropriate payment or performance, the Optionee hereby
agreeing that should it so commence to cure any default
it will prosecute the same to completion without undue
delay.
Should the Optionee fail to comply with the provision
of sub-paragraph (b), the Optionor may thereafter terminate this
Agreement by giving notice thereof to the Optionee.
RULE AGAINST PERPETUITIES
-------------------------
16. If any right, power or interest held by or to be
acquired by any party in the Property under this Agreement would
violate the rule against perpetuities, then such right, power or
interest shall terminate at the expiration of 20 years after the
