QUITCLAIM DEED AND ROYALTY AGREEMENT
THIS QUIT CLAIM DEED AND ROYALTY AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made effective as of ______________ between PPR, a _______________ corporation, whose address is ___________________________ (hereinafter referred to as “PPR”), and GRANTEE, a ________________ corporation, whose address is ____________________, (hereinafter referred to as “Grantee”).
WITNESSETH:
For and in consideration of good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged by the Parties, the Parties agree as follows:
1. PPR does by these presents hereby remise, release and forever quitclaim unto Grantee, and to its successors and permitted assigns, forever, all right, title, estate and interest of PPR in and to all those certain unpatented mining claims described in Exhibit A attached hereto and by this reference made a part hereof (“Property”), subject to the agreement and reservation of production royalties set forth below.
2. PPR hereby reserves unto itself, its successors and assigns forever, and Grantee agrees to pay to PPR, a perpetual production royalty of TWO percent of Net Returns Production Royalty from the sale or other disposition of “Subject Minerals” produced and sold from the Property (hereafter, the “Production Royalty”), determined in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Section 1:
a. Definitions. The following terms when initially capitalized will have the definitions used in this Section 1a.:
(1) “Sales Price” has the definition contained in Paragraph 3 of this Agreement.
(2) “Allowable Deductions” has the definition contained in Paragraph 3 of this Agreement.
(3) “Net Returns” means an amount determined by subtracting Allowable Deductions from the Sale Price.
B-1 of 6
/s/ R.R /s/ M.O
(4) “Subject Minerals” means minerals and materials of every kind and character whatsoever, and all deposits of all such materials and minerals, in, upon and under the Property. Subject Minerals does not include any oil, gas, associated liquid hydrocarbons or coal, but does include, without limit, all uranium, vanadium, and other fissionable source materials.
(5) “Yellowcake” means U308 concentrate, any chemical compound from which U308 concentrate can be derived, or equivalent pounds of U308 in a pregnant solution (“Equivalent Pounds”).
b. Computation of Production Royalty. When Subject Minerals are mined from the Property and sold by Grantee, Grantee will calculate the Production Royalty due PPR as follows: (i) The Sales Price shall be determined as set forth in Paragraph 3 of this Agreement, (ii) Allowable Deductions will be calculated and subtracted from the Sales Price to determine Net Returns, and (ii) Net Returns will be multiplied by TWO percent to determine the PPR’s Production Royalty.
c. FOR EXAMPLE
Assume a Sale Price of Yellowcake | $ | 100,000 | |
Assume Allowable Deductions of: | 10,000 | ||
Net Return from the sale then equals | 90,000 | ||
Production Royalty of 2% equals | 1,800 |
d. Sales Price. “Sales Price” has the following meanings with regard to particular types of Subject Minerals:
(1) When Yellowcake is produced by an in situ or heap leaching process, then the Sales Price shall be the actual proceeds received by Grantee from the of the Yellowcake. If product is not sold as Yellowcake, but rather a pregnant solution is provided to a purchaser, the Sales Price shall be established by determining the number of Equivalent Pounds of Yellowcake contained in the pregnant solution. The number of Equivalent Pounds shall be determined in accordance with Standard analytical procedures in the uranium processing industry. If more than on of Yellowcake is made during any calendar quarter, then, for the purpose of calculating Production Royalty, the average price received by Grantee from such sales shall be deemed to be the Sales Price for that quarter.
(a) If after milling or beneficiation, Yellowcake is delivered for further processing to a smelter or other processing facility owned or controlled by Grantee, or which processes the concentrate for Grantee on a toll basis, the concentrate shall be deemed sold, for royalty purposes, when it is delivered to the smelter or facility. In such event, Grantee will be deemed to have received, as the Sale Price for the Yellowcake, a sum equal to the fair market value thereof, as determined by TradeTech, LLC’s Long Term Price at the time it was delivered for further processing, less deductions for Allowable Deductions. In the event that TradeTech, LLC’s Long Term Price no longer exists, the PPR shall be paid upon another, similar price indicator that is also widely recognized and accepted by the uranium industry.
B-2 of 6
/s/ R.R /s/ M.O
(b) With respect to uranium bearing material, all weights for purposes of the Agreement will be dry weights for the average price per pound of Yellowcake received by Grantee from the sales of Yellowcake during the calendar quarter during which the Yellowcake is removed from the Property for processing or beneficiating.
(2) In all other cases, Sales Price means the net proceeds actually paid to Grantee, or finally credited to Grantee in exchange for Subject Minerals. That is, for ores mined by Grantee form the Property that are not processed or beneficiated for the recovery of uranium, but are milled for the recovery of contained base or precious metals, then the value, for purposes of calculating Production Royalty, will be deemed to be the net purchase received by Grantee from the smelter or other purchaser, for the concentrate, after the deduction of Allowable Deductions.
e. Allowable Deductions. For Yellowcake, “Allowable Deductions” shall mean transportation costs to the point of sale and deductions made by the purchaser for sampling, assaying, penalties and treatment, plus other deductions as more specifically described in item numbers 3(a) through 3(b) below.
f. For ores that are not Uranium-bearing, “Allowable Deductions” shall mean and include all costs, expenses and charges of any nature whatsoever that are either paid or incurred by Grantee for or in connection with mineral concentration, treatment, smelting, refining or other beneficiation processes or procedures (whether or not currently know) which are undertaken off of the Property including, without limitation, costs or expenses paid or incurred for or in connection with penalties or other processor deductions or for sampling and assaying fees charged by an umpired,
(3) all costs, expenses and charges of any nature whatsoever that are either paid or incurred by Grantee for or in connection with the transportation of Subject Minerals away from the Property (f.o.b. the Property and including shipping, freight, transaction taxes, handling, port, demurrage, security, delay and forwarding expenses) to a mill, smelter, refinery or other place or places of treatment, storage or sale;
(4) all costs, expenses and charges of any nature whatsoever that are either paid or incurred by Grantee for or in connection with insurance, storage, representation at a refinery, consignment sale or sales brokerage costs or fees, or tolling or reining charges or fees,
(5) all sales, use, severance, net proceeds of mine, excise and any other taxes except income tax which is paid or incurred by Grantee and which is levied on, measured by or applicable to mineral production, and (5) any production royalties, production taxes, severance taxes and sales, privilege and other taxes paid to the United States that are measured by or based upon production or the value of Subject Minerals produced from the Property.
g. Treatment and Sale. Grantee shall have the right (but not the obligation) to concentrate, mill, smelt, refine, upgrade or otherwise process or beneficiate Subject Minerals mined from the Property, at locations on or off the Property. In the event that Subject Minerals are concentrated or milled, smelted, refined, upgraded or otherwise processed or beneficiated in facilities owned or controlled by Grantee, then Allowable Deductions shall not exceed Allowable Deductions that would have been paid or
B-3 of 6
/s/ R.R /s/ M.O
incurred by Grantee if the facilities were owned or controlled by an independent party. No Production Royalty shall be payable to PPR for or with respect to reasonable quantities of Subject Minerals that are not sold by Grantee but are used by Grantee for assaying, treatment amenability, metallurgical or other analytical processes or procedures.
h. Commingling. Grantee shall have the right to mix or commingle, at any location and either underground or at the surface, any Subject Minerals mined from the Property with any ores, metals, minerals, or mineral products mined from other lands, provided that Grantee shall determine the weight or volume of, sample and analyze all such Subject Minerals, ores, metals, minerals and mineral products before they are mixed or commingled. Any such determination of weight or volume, sampling and analysis shall be made in accordance with sound and generally accepted sampling and analytic practices and procedures. The weight or volume and the analysis so derived shall be used as the basis of allocation of Royalties payable to PPR in accordance with this Agreement in the event of a sale by Grantee of any materials so mixed or commingled.
i. Statements and Payments. Each Royalty payment shall be made by wire transfer to an account for the credit of PPR at a bank designated by PPR in Paragraph 4 of this Agreement or a single check made payable to a person designated in writing by PPR as the payee for purposes of payments due to PPR under this Agreement. Each payment shall be made by Grantee’s check mailed or delivered as above within THIRTY days after the calendar quarter in which Grantee receives payment of the purchase price for ores, leachates, solutions or concentrates sold by it and for which the Royalty is payable according to this Agreement. If above, the Royalty shall be paid within THIRTY days after the calendar quarter during which the further processing occurs. Each such payment shall be accompanied by an itemized statement setting forth all facts and figures weights, analyses and values of all ores, concentrates, Subject Minerals, and metals produced form the Property during the Period for which payment is made in order to verify the accuracy of the amount of the payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Grantee shall not be in default for failing to make any payment to PPR in timely fashion if PPR fails or refuse to give Grantee written notice designating a bank account or a person to be the payee named on each and every check to be either wired or sent to PPR.
All statements provided to PPR by Grantee shall be conclusively presumed to be true and correct after SIXTY days from the end of the period to which such statement applies unless within the SIXTY day period PPR submits to Grantee a written exception and claims that Grantee makes adjustment. Failure on the part of PPR to make a claim against Grantee for an adjustment in the subject period shall establish the correctness and preclude the filing of later favorable to Grantee shall be made unless they are made within the prescribed SIXTY day period or unless in connection with a claim made by PPR.
j. Audit. As stated above in Paragraph 8 of this Agreement, PPR shall have a period of SIXTY days after PPR’s receipt of each statement to give Grantee notice of any objection. If PPR fails to object to a particular statement within SIXTY days after PPR’ receipt thereof then, subject only to the provisions in Paragraph 10 (“Adjustments”)
B-4 of 6
/s/ R.R /s/ M.O
of this Agreement, the accuracy of such statement and the amount of any payment transmitted therewith shall be conclusive with respect to PPR. If PPR objects to the accuracy of a particular statement or the amount of the payment transmitted thereby within SIXTY days after the statement is received by PPR, a certified public accountant mutually acceptable to the parties and retained by PPR may promptly audit Grantee’s relevant books and records at an office selected by Grantee during Grantee’s normal business hours. Any such audit shall be made at the sole expense of PPR if the audit determines that they payment in question was accurate to within three percent (3%). Any such audit shall be made at the sole expense of Grantee if the audit determines that the payment in question was inaccurate by more than three percent (3%). In any case, the payment in question shall be adjusted to reflect the results of the audit.
k. Adjustments. The amounts of any charges, costs or expenses or any adjustments which are actually made and given to Grantee by a purchaser, shipper, processor or other creditor that were not taken into account in a statement to PPR which accompanied a preceding Production Royalty payment shall be taken into account in determining that amount of the next Production Royalty payment, but no such charges or adjustments shall otherwise affect the conclusiveness of preceding statements or payments.
3. In the event Grantee intends to abandon the Property or any portion thereof, it shall first give to PPR SIXTY days advance written notice of such intention and in such written notice shall offer to convey the Property to PPR by quitclaim deed at no cost to PPR. Provided, however, that if Grantee’s notice of abandonment is delivered to PPR after July 1st of any year, Grantee shall be obligated to perform the annual assessment work or pay the annual maintenance fees required to keep the unpatented claims comprising the Property in good standing for the next assessment year. During the SIXTY day period beginning on the date of PPR’s receipt of notice, PPR will have the right, but not the obligation, to accept the offer of reconveyance. PPR will indicate its acceptance by giving written notice thereof to Grantee. If PPR exercises its right to accept the reconveyance of the Property, Grantee will promptly execute and deliver to PPR a deed conveying to PPR all of Grantee’s right, title, estate and interest in the Property, with a warranty that the Property is free and clear of any lien or encumbrance created by Grantee or arising from Grantee’s activities on the Property. If PPR fails to give notice of its acceptance of the offer of reconveyance within the SIXTY day period described above, Grantee shall have no obligation to convey the Property to PPR. Together with Grantee’s notice of abandonment of the Property or a portion thereof, Grantee shall furnish to PPR a copy of all drilling logs, sample and drill-hole locations, maps and other noninterpretive factual data which Grantee has developed in connection with exploration and development of the Property to be abandoned.
