EURASIAN M INERALS INC . (the “Company”) |
The undersigned is the holder of __________________________ common shares of the Company (the “Shares”), evidenced by certificate no(s). ______________________________ , which are “restricted shares” (as defined in Rule 144 under the United States Shares Act of 1933 (the “1933 Act”)) and may not be offered or sold by the undersigned unless the Shares are registered under the 1933 Act or the offer and sale is made pursuant to an available registration exemption. The share certificate(s) has (have) a legend (the “Restrictive Legend”) referring to the 1933 Act and such resale restrictions.
The undersigned understands that Rule 904 of Regulation S under the 1933 Act contains an exemption for “offshore resales” of securities notwithstanding that the Shares are “restricted shares”. Accordingly, the undersigned wishes to offer and sell the Shares pursuant to Rule 904 and hereby requests the Company facilitate such offer and sale by removing the Restrictive Legend so that the Shares may be deposited with a registered broker-dealer (the “Broker”) in advance of an offer and sale described below.
In order to induce the Company to remove the Restrictive Legend, the undersigned agrees that (i) any sale of the Shares into the public markets while they remain “restricted shares” will be made solely in an “offshore resale” pursuant to the requirements of Rule 904, (ii) the Broker will maintain custody of the certificate(s) representing the Shares and (iii) if the undersigned directs the Broker to deliver out such certificate(s) other than pursuant to an “offshore resale”, such certificate(s) will first be returned to the Company’s transfer agent for re-imposition of the Restrictive Legend and the undersigned will pay any fee imposed by the transfer agent for performing this service, and the undersigned represents and warrants to the Company, its transfer agent and their agents that:
(1) the undersigned is not an “affiliate” of the Company (as that term is defined in the 1933 Act);
(2) the sale of the Shares will be executed in, on or through the facilities of the TSX Venture Exchange or Toronto Stock Exchange or another “designated offshore securities market” (as defined in Regulation S) and neither the undersigned nor any person acting on its behalf will know that the transaction has been pre-arranged with a buyer in the United States;
(3) neither the undersigned nor any affiliate of the undersigned nor any person acting on any of their behalf has engaged or will engage in any “directed selling efforts” (as defined in Regulation S) in connection with the offer and sale of the Shares;
(4) the sale will be bona fide and not for the purpose of “washing off” the Restrictive Legend;
(5) the undersigned does not (i) have a “short position” the securities being sold; nor (ii) intend to replace the Shares with fungible unrestricted shares of the Company; and
(6) the contemplated sale is not a transaction, or part of a series of transactions which, although in technical compliance with Regulation S, is part of a plan or scheme to evade the registration provisions of the 1933 Act.
The undersigned understands that the Company, its transfer agent and others are relying upon the representations contained in this declaration and agrees their counsel shall be entitled to rely upon the representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Certification to the same extent as if it had been addressed to them.

The Shares and Warrant Shares are part of the class of shares of the Company listed for trading on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”). Subject to satisfying the Exchange’s listing requirements, the Warrants may be listed on the Exchange, however, there is no assurance of any such listing. The foregoing description of the Warrants is a summary only and is subject to the detailed provisions of the certificates representing (and, if applicable, warrant indenture governing) the Warrants.

The Securities and Warrant Shares will also be subject to additional resale restrictions in the United States of America described below. The Subscriber is advised to consult its own legal adviser in connection with any applicable resale restrictions.
