NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, the parties agree as follows:

Following the Merger, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease and the Company shall continue as the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”) and shall succeed to and assume all the rights and obligations of Merger Sub in accordance with the NGCL.

Section 1.2 Effective Time. The Merger shall become effective when an Articles of Merger (the “Articles of Merger”), executed in accordance with the relevant provisions of the NGCL, is filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada.

At the Effective Time, the Bylaws of the Company, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall become the Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter changed or amended as provided therein or in the Articles of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) The individuals listed on Exhibit A attached hereto shall be the directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation at the Effective Time, until the earlier of their resignation or removal or until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified, as the case may be.

Section 1.5 Charter Amendment, Directors and Officers of Parent. As of the Effective Time, Parent shall take the following actions:

(a) Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall cause to be filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation (the “Charter Amendment”) and any additional documentation necessary to reflect the change of its corporate name to “Rimrock Gold Corp.” and to effect the Reverse Stock Split (as hereinafter defined);

(b) Parent shall cause the Board of Directors of Parent (the “Parent Board”) immediately following the Effective Time to be comprised of the individuals listed on Exhibit B attached hereto. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Company, each existing director of Parent shall submit a written resignation to the Parent Board on or prior to the Closing Date which shall be effective as of the Effective Time; and

-2-

Section 1.6 Reverse Stock Split. Parent shall submit to its stockholders for approval and, if approved, immediately prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall cause to be filed the Charter Amendment, whereby, upon the effectiveness of filing of the Charter Amendment, without any further action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holders of any securities of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company:

(a) Every eight (8) shares of Parent Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be reclassified and combined into and become one fully paid and non-assessable share of Parent Common Stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”) and all shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued pursuant to this Article I at the Effective Time shall be after giving effect to the Reverse Stock Split;

(b) Any shares of Parent Common Stock held as treasury stock or owned by Parent immediately prior to the filing of the Charter Amendment shall each be reclassified in the manner determined pursuant to this Section 1.6; and

(c) No certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. With respect to each holder of shares of Parent Common Stock who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock (after taking into account all fractional shares of Parent Common Stock otherwise issuable to such holder), Parent shall round the number of shares of Parent Common Stock deliverable to such holder up to the nearest whole number, entitling such holder to receive, in lieu of such fractional share, one share of Parent Common Stock.

Section 1.7 Conversion of Securities. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holders of any securities of Merger Sub or the Company, other than as contemplated in this Agreement:

(b) Subject to the provisions of Sections 1.8 and 1.9, each share of Company Common Stock (each a “Company Share”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into the right to receive 178,000 validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Parent Common Stock (collectively, the “Parent Shares”), calculated after giving effect to the Reverse Stock Split (the “Merger Consideration”). Any fractional Parent Shares resulting from the aforementioned conversion shall not be issued by Parent and shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number of Parent Shares. All Company Shares, when so converted, shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired, and each holder of a certificate representing any such shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive certificates representing the Parent Shares into which such shares are converted.

-3-

Section 1.8 Exchange of Shares.

Parent shall deliver the appropriate Merger Consideration in exchange for surrendered certificates that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented the Company Shares (the “Certificates”).

(b) Exchange Procedures. Promptly, but in any event within three (3) Business Days after the surrender to Parent of a Certificate for cancellation together with such other documents as may be reasonably required, the holder of such Certificate shall receive in exchange therefor certificate(s) representing that number of Parent Shares which such holder has the right to receive in respect of the Company Shares formerly represented by such Certificate, and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 1.8, each Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender a certificate representing Parent Shares.

(c) Further Rights in Company Common Stock. All Parent Shares issued upon conversion of the Company Shares in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Company Shares.

(d) Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parent in its reasonable business judgment, the execution of an indemnity agreement against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, Parent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Parent Shares to which the holders thereof are entitled pursuant to Section 1.7.

Parent shall issue the Parent Shares in exchange for outstanding Company Shares as provided in Section 1.7 pursuant to an exemption from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and/or Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. Parent and Company shall comply with all applicable provisions of, and rules under, the Securities Act in connection with the offering and issuance of the Merger Consideration.

Section 1.9 Closing of Company Transfer Books. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed, and no transfer of Company Shares shall thereafter be made on the records of the Company. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates representing Company Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation or Parent, such Certificates shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Article I.

Section 1.10 Further Assurances. If at any time after the Effective Time the Surviving Corporation shall consider or be advised that any deeds, bills of sale, assignments or assurances or any other acts or things are necessary, desirable or proper (a) to vest, perfect or confirm, of record or otherwise, in the Surviving Corporation, its right, title or interest in, to or under any of the rights, privileges, powers, franchises, properties or assets of either of Merger Sub or the Company, or (b) otherwise to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, the Surviving Corporation and its proper officers and directors or their designees shall be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of either Merger Sub or the Company, all such deeds, bills of sale, assignments and assurances and to do, in the name and on behalf of either Merger Sub or the Company, all such other acts and things as may be necessary, desirable or proper to vest, perfect or confirm the Surviving Corporation’s right, title or interest in, to or under any of the rights, privileges, powers, franchises, properties or assets of Merger Sub or the Company and otherwise to carry out the purposes of this Agreement.

Section 2.5 SEC Documents and Other Reports; Internal Controls and Procedures.

(a) Parent has timely filed with the SEC all documents required to be filed by it since December 14, 2011 under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (the “Parent SEC Documents”). As of their respective filing dates, or, if amended, as of the date of the last amendment prior to the date of this Agreement, the Parent SEC Documents complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, as the case may be, and, at the respective times they were filed, none of the Parent SEC Documents contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The financial statements (including, in each case, any notes thereto) of Parent included in the Parent SEC Documents complied as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto, were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) (except, in the case of the unaudited statements, as permitted by Form 10-Q of the SEC) applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (except as may be indicated therein or in the notes thereto) and fairly presented in all material respects the consolidated financial position of Parent and its consolidated subsidiaries as at the respective dates thereof and the consolidated results of their operations and their consolidated cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments and to any other adjustments described therein). Except as disclosed in the Parent SEC Documents filed with the SEC prior to the date of this Agreement or as required by GAAP, Parent has not made or adopted any material change in its accounting methods, practices or policies.

Parent’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that all information (both financial and non-financial) required to be disclosed by Parent in the reports that it files or furnishes under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that all such information is accumulated and communicated to Parent’s management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and to make the certifications required pursuant to Sections 302 and 906 of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act. Parent’s management has completed an assessment of the effectiveness of Parent’s disclosure controls and procedures and, to the extent required by applicable law, presented in any applicable Parent SEC Document that is a report on Form 10-K or Form 10-Q, or any amendment thereto, its conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by such report or amendment based on such evaluation. Based on Parent’s management’s most recently completed evaluation of Parent’s internal control over financial reporting prior to the date of this Agreement, except as set forth in the Parent SEC Documents, (i) Parent had no significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in the design or operation of its internal control over financial reporting that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect Parent’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information and (ii) Parent does not have knowledge of any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in Parent’s internal control over financial reporting.

Section 2.6 Undisclosed Liabilities. Neither Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries has any liabilities (absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise) of a nature required to be disclosed on a balance sheet or in the related notes to the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP which are, individually or in the aggregate, material to the business, results of operations or financial condition of Parent and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, except liabilities (i) provided for in the Parent SEC Documents, (ii) incurred since August 31, 2012 in the ordinary course of business consistent with practices of a company in Parent’s industry in both type and amount, or (iii) as set forth on Section 2.6 of the Parent Disclosure Schedule.

Since August 31, 2012, (i) Parent and its Subsidiaries have conducted their businesses, in all material respects, in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice; (ii) there has not been any action taken or committed to be taken by Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent which, if taken following entry by Parent into this Agreement, would have required the consent of the Company pursuant to Section 4.1 and (iii) there has been no event, occurrence, fact, condition, effect, change or development which, individually or in the aggregate, has had or would reasonably be expected to have, a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

Section 2.8 Litigation. Except as set forth in the Parent SEC Documents, there is no Action by or before any Governmental Entity or other Person pending or, to the Knowledge of Parent, threatened against Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their respective properties or assets and neither Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries is subject to any Order.

Section 5.9 Net Smelter Royalty.

(a) Amount. Following the Effective Time, if any of the properties the Company has claims on as of the date hereof (including any properties, assets or claims that may be acquired after the date hereof by Parent or any of its affiliates within five (5) kilometers of such properties of the Company, the “Existing Properties”) become commercial producing properties of any mineral deposit, the parties hereto agree that Parent shall pay a net smelter return on such assets equal to 3.0% (the “Royalty Payments”), to be distributed as follows: (i) 2.5% to Zahav Resources and (ii) 0.5% to ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (collectively, the “NSR Recipients”). There is no ceiling or limitation on the amount of the Royalty Payments.

(b) Payments.

Once Parent makes a Royalty Payment in accordance with this Section 5.9, then it shall have no further responsibility for distribution of such Royalty Payment. In the event a Royalty Payment is not timely made to the NSR Recipients, then such owed amounts shall incur a default interest rate of 2% per 30-day period, beginning on the day after the initial due date and then the first day of each subsequent 30-day period, and such default rate shall continue to accrue until the Royalty Payments plus default amounts are paid in full.

Within ninety (90) days following the end of each calendar year, commencing with the year in which the Existing Property is brought into commercial production (not inclusive of any bulk sampling programs), Parent shall deliver to Zahav Resources a statement of the Royalty Payments owed and paid for that calendar year (a “Statement”). All books and records used by Parent in calculating the Royalty Payments shall be kept in accordance with GAAP. Zahav Resources shall have the right, within three (3) months of receiving a Statement, to inspect Parent’s books and records relating to the Existing Properties and the Royalty Payments, and to conduct an independent audit of such books and records (an “Audit”). If Zahav Resources does not request an inspection of Parent’s books and records during such three-month period, all Royalty Payments referenced in the Statement for such year will be considered final and in full satisfaction of Parent’s payments obligations for such year.

(d) Dispute. If Zahav Resources disputes any of the Royalty Payment calculations in the Statement, Zahav Resources shall deliver to Parent, within sixty (60) days of receiving the Statement, a written notice (an “Objection Notice”) describing and setting forth its objections. If the Audit determines that there has been a deficiency or an excess in a Royalty Payment, such deficiency or excess will be resolved by adjusting the next payment due pursuant to this Section 5.9. Zahav Resources shall pay the costs and expenses of an Audit, unless a deficiency of 3% or more of the Royalty Payment in question is found to exist, in which case Parent shall be responsible to pay all costs and expenses of such Audit.

-28-

(g) Assignments by Zahav Resources. Zahav Resources may assign, transfer, pledge, mortgage, charge or otherwise encumber all or any part of its right, title and interest in and to its Royalty Payments hereunder; provided, however, that Parent shall be under no obligation to make its payments hereunder to such assignee, transferee, pledgee or other third party until Parent receives a notice concerning such assignment, transfer or encumbrance.

The table of contents, table of defined terms and headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. All terms defined in this Agreement shall have the defined meanings when used in any certificate or other document made or delivered pursuant thereto unless otherwise defined therein. The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term. Any agreement, instrument or statute defined or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means such agreement, instrument or statute as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of agreements or instruments) by waiver or consent and (in the case of statutes) by succession of comparable successor statutes and references to all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein. Each of the parties has participated in the drafting and negotiation of this Agreement.

Section 9.3 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or email attachment, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or email-attached signature page were an original thereof.

Section 9.4 Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement (and the Confidentiality Agreement) constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.

Section 9.5 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.

Section 9.7 Waiver. At any time prior to the Effective Time, the parties hereto may (i) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other parties hereto, (ii) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and/or (iii) waive compliance with any of the covenants, agreements or conditions contained herein which may legally be waived.
