GLOBAL SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT
This global settlement agreement is made and entered into this 29th day of
April, 1998, by Idaho Consolidated Metals Corporation, Inc., ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, individually and acting in his capacity as
trustee of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Family Trust, AND BETWEEN ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, Idaho Mining and Development Company (IMD) and Silver Crystal Mines,
Inc., hereinafter collectively referred to as "IMD Group."
WHEREAS, the parties to this agreement are currently involved in numerous
lawsuits, disagreements and contractual relationships which the parties have
collectively determined should be terminated, resolved, dismissed with prejudice
and/or revised as hereinafter set forth in order that the parties may pursue
their respective business interests free of the uncertainties, inhibitions,
risks, costs and aggravations of the aforementioned lawsuits, disagreements and
contractual relationships; and,
WHEREAS, each of the parties having been duly advised by counsel of their
choice and being fully aware by their own judgment of the costs, losses and
benefits of restructuring their legal and business relationships as and to the
extent hereinafter provided,
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and promises hereinafter
specified, the parties agree as follows:

c) Idaho County Civil Case No. 31318
Concurrently with the execution of this agreement, each of the parties to
the foregoing actions shall execute a stipulation for dismissal with prejudice
of each of the above actions, and cause the same to be immediately filed with

said stipulation. The sole exception to the dismissal with prejudice shall be
those claims by or against ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ personally, which shall be
dismissed without prejudice. The stipulation shall specifically provide that
each party shall pay their own attorney fees and costs, and shall have no claim
against the other party to recover such costs and fees. The stipulation shall
also specify that the dismissal with prejudice will bar either party from
bringing an action on any additional claims or defenses which could have been
brought by the parties on any of the underlying agreements or causes of action,
including but not limited to any potential shareholder derivative actions
against ICMC, its officers or directors.
This settlement agreement is intended to fully and finally resolve any and
all claims between ICMC, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Family Trust and the IMD Group

d. ICMC ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, Nez Perce County Case No. CV 97-01749
Nothing in this agreement shall be considered to release any claims,
cross-claims or defenses the parties to this agreement would be entitled to
raise in the four lawsuits specifically excluded from this settlement agreement.
2. In full and final settlement of all existing and potential claims
between and among the parties to this agreement, ICMC shall pay to IMD the sum
of $100,000.00, to be paid as follows:

within two business days of the execution of this settlement
agreement, the stipulations of dismissal, and the lease agreement
described in paragraph 7 below, AND
b. $50,000 to be held in trust by ▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ on behalf of ICMC
and paid to IMD upon IMD's delivery of signed quitclaim deeds to
the various mining claims more fully described in Paragraph 8
below.
3. Excepting those rights and obligations created by this agreement, IMD,
▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Silver Crystal Mines, Inc. do hereby release
and discharge ICMC and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, both individually and as trustee
of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Family Trust, from all claims, demands, and causes of action
that IMD, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Silver Crystal Mines, Inc., ever had,
now have, or may have in the future, known and unknown, or that anyone claiming
by or through them may have or claim to have arising out of any agreements or
alleged acts or omissions of ICMC or ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, both individually
and as trustee of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Family Trust occurring prior to the date of
this agreement, including but not limited to any potential shareholder
derivative actions against ICMC.
Excepting those rights and obligations created by this agreement, ICMC and
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, both individually and as trustee of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
Family Trust, do hereby release and discharge IMD, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
and Silver Crystal Mines, Inc. from all claims, demands, and causes of action
that ICMC and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, both individually and as trustee of the
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Family Trust, ever had, now have, or may have in the future, known
and unknown, or that anyone claiming by or through them may have or claim to
have arising out of any agreements or alleged acts or omissions of those persons
or entities herein collectively referred to as the IMD Group occurring prior to
the date of this agreement.
4. Upon execution of this agreement, the referenced lease, and the
stipulations for dismissal, an authorized representative of ICMC will accompany
an authorized representative of IMD to the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ mine and millsite in
Cottonwood, Idaho, to inventory and allow IMD to remove certain items of
personal property from that site, which are identified in the following
subparagraphs. Because the lease on ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hill expires on June 28, 1998,
removal must be completed no later than June 15, 1998.
a. IMD will be entitled to remove all of the equipment and materials
located at the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ site not specifically excluded in
subparagraphs 7(b) and (c), including but not limited to those
items listed on Exhibit 1 attached hereto which are not also
subject to the Gumprecht and Witrak security interest, which list
is attached as Exhibit 2. No representation is made as to any
items or property being located on such site; should the parties
discover that items are missing, they agree to report those items
as a theft to the Idaho County Sheriff's Department and to make a
claim for loss from the insurer. IMD agrees to remove all
chemicals and reagents from the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ site. This commitment
shall not be construed to impose any liability for environmental
cleanup or any other liabilities therefrom at the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hill
site for IMD Group.
b. IMD shall not remove from ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ any items which were
subject to the alleged security interest of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and
▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, which are specifically described in the document
attached hereto as Exhibit 2. The IMD Group will cooperate in
granting to Gumprecht and Witrak access to all items listed in
Exhibit 2 wherever they may be located, including but not limited
to those items located at the Golden Eagle mine site or at
Golden.
c. IMD shall not remove the following items which are the property
of ICMC:
1. Main plant building, permanent fixtures and attachments
thereto, including but not limited to the electrical system.
To the extent that any items listed on Exhibit 1 are
permanent fixtures or attachments, the parties agree to
trade those items for other property located at such site to
the extent such property is available. Pumps listed on
Exhibit 1 are not permanent fixtures.
2. An unassembled metal building of approximately 80 feet by
110 feet and the hardware for that building.
3. Forklift.
4. One-ton Plastic batch system.
The IMD Group shall assume the risk of any damage to said personal property
incurred during removal or afterward, and specifically agrees to reimburse ICMC
promptly for any damage caused to the buildings or premises during the course of
removal of the property. IMD will be permitted to remove the lumber and
galvanized steel from the trailer cover and any unused lumber, miscellaneous
plumbing parts and pipe, set materials or galvanized steel on site. IMD will
provide insurance coverage for any persons employed by it to assist in the
removal of the above equipment, and will indemnify ICMC from any claims
whatsoever relating to said activity.
5. IMD, Silver Crystal Mines, Inc., ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agree
that subsequent to the execution of this agreement and for a period of three
years thereafter, neither they nor any corporation or entity in which they own
more than a five percent equity interest or more than five percent of all issued
and outstanding shares of common stock, nor any entity in which they are an
officer or director shall acquire any shares of stock in ICMC Corporation.
6. ICMC agrees to transfer to IMD and ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ any ownership or
licensing interest it has of any kind whatsoever in that certain process
generally referred to as the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-Br Process, and further acknowledges and
agrees that ICMC's interest in said process shall be limited to the royalty
interest more specifically set forth below. IMD and ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ represent and
warrant that they are the owners of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-Br Process and that such process
at present has not been licensed for use by any person or entity other than IMD
and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.
IMD and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agree to grant to ICMC a royalty of 2% of gross revenue
from any use of the process, which shall include licensing use of the process.
This royalty will be paid on any revenues generated by use of the process by any
member of the IMD Group, any entity in which members of IMD Group hold an
ownership interest, joint ventures in which members of the IMD Group are
participating, and/or third parties.
The royalty will be paid to ICMC on a quarterly basis. ICMC shall have the
right to hire, at its own expense, an independent auditor to examine the records
relating to monies received from the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-Br process at any reasonable time
upon not less than 10 days notice.
7. As a full and final resolution of all issues between and among the
parties relating to the Golden Eagle claim blocks, ICMC and IMD shall enter into
the mining lease (attached as Exhibit 3) by which ICMC will lease from IMD all
of IMD's interest in the mineral rights on the Golden Eagle claim blocks which
are specifically listed in that lease. So long as the Cyprus Joint Venture is in
effect, the initial term of that lease shall coincide with the remaining term of
the Cyprus Joint Venture. The lease shall contain the following provisions:
a. During the term of the Cyprus Joint Venture, IMD shall be
entitled to a 40% share of all benefits (defined as all funds
received by ICMC less costs assessed by Cyprus against these
claims) derived from the Golden Eagle claim blocks.
b. The parties acknowledge that ICMC is presently involved in a
joint venture with Cyprus on these and a number of other claims
in which the various members of the IMD group do not have an
interest. A copy of that Joint Venture agreement is attached as
Exhibit 4. In the event Cyprus sells or assigns its interest in
that joint venture, all references to Cyprus shall be deemed to
include that corporation's assignees.
c. IMD Group will not participate in the Cyprus Joint Venture except
as otherwise previously established and through their 40% sharing
in benefits from the Golden Eagle claim blocks.
d. IMD Group will not be responsible for any costs, risks, or debts
of any kind created by Cyprus or ICMC via the Joint Venture or
the lease of mineral rights on the Golden Eagle claim properties
to ICMC.
e. IMD Group will retain ownership and possession of all buildings,
machinery, and equipment located at the Golden Eagle Mine, with
the exception of those items subject to the Gumprecht and Witrak
security interest listed in paragraph 4(b) above. IMD Group
agrees to indemnify and hold harmless ICMC and Cyprus from any
and all claims or actions relating to those buildings, including
but not limited to the U.S. Forest Service.
f. Subject to confirmation and approval by Cyprus, ICMC agrees to
allow IMD Group to retain all placer mining rights and rights of
ingress and egress to the Golden Eagle Claim property, so long as
the activities do not interfere with the development of the lode
systems and access necessary to that development; however, placer
mining will not be interfered with unless compensation based on
value contained in the placer deposit is made.
g. IMD Group further agrees to:
(1) Provide ICMC and Cyprus with copies of placer permits and
proof of bonding prior to commencement of any placer mining
on the Golden Eagle claim properties;
(2) For any mining operations conducted by IMD Group, IMD Group
agrees to provide liability insurance in the amount $1
million with ICMC included as a loss payee, and to hold
Cyprus and ICMC harmless for any such operations on the
property;
(3) Perform all reclamation necessary in areas disturbed by IMD
Group after the execution of the lease agreement
h. ICMC and Cyprus will properly bond all mining operations
conducted by Cyprus or ICMC on the properties, hold IMD Group
harmless from any such operations, and will be responsible for
reclamation of areas disturbed by ICMC or Cyprus.
i. ICMC will be responsible for performing all assessment work,
maintenance fees, payments or transfer fees during the lease,
including reimbursing IMD for small miner transfer fees.
Upon termination of the Cyprus joint venture, ICMC will have the option to
renew the lease for an additional five year term upon payment of $10,000 in
accordance with the lease agreement attached as Exhibit 4.
It is understood that IM&D has patent applications pending for the Golden
Eagle, Golden Eagle 2 and Golden Eagle 3 properties. If approved, IM&D will have
exclusive ownership of the surface. However, IM&D will not use such surface
rights in a manner which would violate any of the foregoing agreements and will
provide users of such property under the terms of the above-mentioned agreements
the right of ingress and egress and such other access to the property as may be
reasonable and necessary to carry out the terms intended in the foregoing
agreements.
8. With regard to the claims which are identified in Exhibit 5, ICMC, IMD,
and Silver Crystal, Inc. shall enter into the operating agreements attached as
Exhibits 6 through 9, which set forth in detail the ownership interests and the
terms of the operating agreement between the parties thereto. The parties to
these operating agreements agree that they will promptly take whatever actions
are necessary to perfect title to said claims in names of ICMC and IMD in the
percentage ownership listed. On any of such claims which ICMC or Cyprus have
already relocated, ICMC shall quitclaim to IMD its percentage interest as
listed.
This agreement shall have no effect whatsoever on the parties' ability to
locate mining claims open to relocation on properties other than those listed,
even if said properties were previously held by one of the parties to this
agreement.
9. The parties acknowledge that there is an existing Letter of Agreement
dated December 1, 1995, in which IMD and Del ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agree to sell and ICMC
agrees to purchase the Mineral Zone Mining property located in the Elk City
Mining District in Idaho County, Idaho. By virtue of this agreement and the
stipulation to dismiss the actions specified, the parties agree that agreement
will be voided. ICMC shall enter into a new agreement to purchase the Mineral
Zone property from IMD and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, with the purchase price to be
determined as follows:
a. Not later that five months from the execution of this Global
Settlement Agreement, ICMC will retain the services of a
qualified appraiser and request an immediate appraisal of the
Mineral Zone property.
b. In the event IMD does not agree with the valuation of ICMC's
appraiser, it will immediately retain its own appraiser and
obtain a valuation of the property.
c. If the appraisers retained by the parties are unable to agree on
a valuation, those two appraisers will appoint a third qualified
appraiser to value the property. In the event the three
appraisers are not able to agree on a valuation, the two values
which are closest to one another shall be averaged to reach the
purchase price.
Within six months from the execution of this agreement, or immediately upon
determination of the purchase price if that should occur more than six months
from the signing of this agreement (the "Valuation Date"), ICMC shall pay to
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and IMD a payment equal to 3-1/2% of the purchase price as determined by
the foregoing formula, to be applied toward the principal balance. Upon receipt
of that payment, IMD and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall deliver a deed to ICMC for those claims.
Six months from the Valuation Date, ICMC shall make a payment of an addition
3-1/2% of the purchase price, to be applied toward the principal balance. From
that date forward, the principal balance shall bear interest at the rate of 7%
per annum. Payments of interest only will be required quarterly until production
commences on said property. Once the property is in production, then principal
and interest shall be amortized by payment in equal quarterly installments based
on the projected years of mine life. During the first twelve (12) months
following the execution of the new Mineral Zone agreement, ICMC shall have the
right with 30 days notice to IMD and Del ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to terminate the agreement to
purchase the property based on ICMC's own internal assessment of the value of
the property and production therefrom. If ICMC terminates the agreement, it will
execute a quitclaim deed on said claims back to IMD and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ in the event
ICMC elects to terminate.
All remaining provisions of the December 1, 1995 Letter of Agreement which
are not inconsistent with the terms set forth in this paragraph shall be
incorporated into the new agreement on the Mineral Zone property. This purchase
and sale of the Mineral Zone property will not be binding until such time as it
has been approved by the Vancouver Stock Exchange. ICMC agrees to use best
efforts to obtain said approval, and all parties to the Mineral Zone agreement
will fully cooperate in making reasonable revisions or restructuring which are
required by the VSE. Should the VSE fail to approve said agreement within one
year, ICMC shall have an additional year in which to seek such approval, which
will be pursued with diligence. In the event the VSE subsequently refuses to
approve the new Mineral Zone Agreement, the remaining portions of this Global
Settlement Agreement shall survive and remain in full force and effect.
Provided, if approval from the VSE is not received within the time permitted or
any extension thereof, all interest in the property will revert to IMD and
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.
10. All parties shall concurrently execute any and all documents necessary
to effectuate this agreement, including any quitclaim deeds or notices of
abandonment which are required.
11. Any controversy or difference of opinion related to this Joint Venture
which cannot be mutually resolved by the parties shall be settled by arbitration
in accordance with the rules then in effect of the American Arbitration
Association and the decision of the arbitrator shall be binding.
12. Should either party find it necessary to enforce any term or condition
contained within this Agreement in a court of law or through arbitration, the
prevailing party herein shall be entitled to an award of reasonable attorney's
fees and costs to be taxed as part of any judgment awarded.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have set their hands the day and
year in this instrument first above written.

or controlled by Lessee, its successors or assigns. The rights and liens of the
Lessor in and to any such ore or Product stockpiled on other lands shall not be
divested by the removal thereof from the Claims, but shall be the same in all
respects as though such materials had been stockpiled on the Claims. If such
other lands are now owned by Lessee, Lessee shall obtain from the owners thereof
a properly executed instrument under which the owners of said other lands agree
to recognize the interests and liens of Lessor on ore and Product stockpiled on
said other lands.

and weighed, or measured by volumetric survey, truck factors, or other industry
practices, in such manner as will permit the computation of royalty to be paid
hereunder, Lessee may mix the same with ores, materials or products from other
lands.
SECTION 16. TREATMENT
Lessee shall have the right, but shall not be required, to beneficiate,
concentrate, smelt, refine, ▇▇▇▇▇, and otherwise treat, in any manner, any ore,
Product and materials mined or produced from the Claims and from other lands.
Such treatment shall be conducted in a careful and workmanlike manner. It is
provided, however, that any tailings or residue remaining on the Claims for a
period of one (1) year after the date on which this Agreement has expired, or
has been terminated by Lessee as to all of the Claims, shall be deemed abandoned
by Lessee and thereupon shall become the property of Lessor.
SECTION 17. LESSOR'S ▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall at all times have, possess, and hold a lien upon all ore and
Product mined from the Claims and shipped therefrom but not sold to a bona fide
purchaser, and upon all improvements placed upon the Claims by Lessee, as
security for any unpaid balance of money due hereunder and as security for the
performance by the Lessee of each and all of Lessee's covenants hereunder. This
lien may be enforced against any such property in like manner as liens conferred
by chattel mortgages, or as any other lien security may be enforced under the
laws of the State of Idaho. Nothing herein contained, however, is intended or
shall be construed to prevent the sale, shipment and removal of ore or Product
in the usual course of business, nor to prevent the removal of tools, machinery,
equipment or other property at any time when Lessee is not in default. This lien
shall not apply to ore or Product sold to third parties.
Exploration and Mining Lease Agreement
Page 11
SECTION 18. TITLE TO PREMISES; Protecting TITLE
Lessee accepts Lessor's title to the claims "as is" on the date of
execution of this Agreement. Lessee or its assignee has the right as outlined in
paragraph 2.3 of the Cyprus J.V. to protect, perfect or otherwise deal with
title as deemed necessary by the current or future condition of title. Nothing
herein shall be construed to transfer title of the claim to Lessee beyond the
lease rights herein set forth.
SECTION 19. INSURANCE; INDEMNITY
During the Cyprus J.V. term of this Agreement, the terms and conditions
concerning insurance, liability and indemnity shall apply specifically to
Exhibit D. In the event Lessee opts to continue this Lease, then the hereinafter
clauses shall become the agreement between Lessor and Lessee.
SECTION 20. EXTRA TERMS UPON ELECTION TO EXTEND
Lessee shall pay the sum of Ten Thousand Dollars ($ 10,000) to initiate the
first 5 years lease extension if Cyprus terminates.
Lessee shall be required to do a minimum of $100,000 per year of
exploration and development work on the property.
Lessor shall be provided accountings and reports for the work and have the
right of inspection.
Lessor may elect in the event Lessee fails to do $100,000 worth of work per
year of this Lease to give Lessee notice of termination hereof by mailing the
same pursuant to this Lease.
Lessee may elect to extend the Lease for an additional 5 year period by
paying Lessor an additional $ 10,000. The work commitments would remain the
same.
In the event Lessor elects to participate in production ICMC shall advance
40% of the pre-production costs as a loan to Lessor to be repaid by Lessor from
profits from actual production together with interest at the rate of prime rate
+ 2% as published in The Wall Street Journal per annum until Lessor's 40% share
of pre-production costs is paid in full. Pre-production costs commence upon the
delineation of an inferred resource as defined by the Canadian Mining and
Metallurgy Ad Hoc Committee Report of September, 1996. In the event profit from
production is
Exploration and Mining Lease Agreement
Page 12
inadequate to repay Lessor's share of pre-production costs, the obligation of
Lessor to pay pre-production cost is forgiven.
In the event Lessor does not elect to participate in production, ICMC shall
have the right to proceed to production and Lessor's ownership percentage shall
decrease to 5% net smelter return. This provision shall not be interpreted to
reduce or diminish the work requirements of ICMC herein.
SECTION 21. TERMINATION, REMOVAL OF PROPERTY
a. Termination of Lessors
In the event of any default by Lessee in the performance of its obligations
hereunder, Lessor shall give to Lessee written notice specifying the default. If
the default is not cured within thirty (30) days after Lessee has received the
notice, or if Lessee has not within that time begun action to cure the default
and does not thereafter diligently prosecute such action to completion, in no
case to exceed ninety days (90). Lessor may terminate this Agreement by
delivering to Lessee written notice of such termination, subject to Lessee's
right to remove its property and equipment from the Claims, as hereinafter
provided. Lessor shall have no right to terminate this Agreement except as set
forth in this paragraph.
b. Termination by Lessee
Lessee shall have the right to terminate this Agreement at any time upon
thirty (30) days' written notice delivered to Lessor. Upon such termination, all
right, title and interest of Lessee under this Agreement shall terminate,
subject to the following Paragraph (c), and Lessee shall not be required to make
further payments, or to perform any further obligations hereunder, including
work commitments, concerning the Claims, except payments or obligations which
have been accrued hereunder pursuant to the express provisions of this
Agreement, and which have not been paid or performed.
c. Removal of Property
Upon any termination of this Agreement, whether by expiration of the term
hereof or by act of either party, Lessee shall have a period of six (6) months
from and after the effective date of termination in which to remove from the
Claims all of its machinery, buildings, structures, facilities, equipment and
other property of every nature and description erected, placed or situated
Exploration and Mining Lease Agreement
Page 13
thereon, except supports placed in shafts, drifts or openings in the Claims. Any
property of Lessee not so removed at the end of said six (6) month period shall
become the property of Lessor. In the event of force majeure, as hereinafter set
forth, the terms and conditions of this paragraph shall be appropriately
extended.
Upon expiration of said removal period, Lessee shall place the Claims in a
safe and orderly condition, with all shafts, caves and openings fenced or
protected as may be required by law or by regulation of any duly constituted
governmental authority having jurisdiction in the Claims.
SECTION 22. ASSIGNMENT
a. By Lessor
During the Cyprus J.V. term, all right to assign, sell, or convey shall be
controlled by the terms thereof.
If, at any time during the additional term hereof, Lessor intends to sell,
assign, transfer or convey the Claims or any part thereof, Lessor shall deliver
to Lessee at least thirty (30) days prior written notice, describing all of the
terms of the proposed sale, assignment, transfer or conveyance. Lessee shall
have the exclusive right, during the above thirty (30) day period, at its
election, to purchase the Claims described in said notice, for a sum of money
equal in value to the consideration which would be received by Lessor under the
terms set forth in the written notice. If Lessee elects to purchase the Claims
described in the notice, Lessee shall so notify Lessor within the thirty (30)
day period. If Lessee has not notified Lessor of its above election within the
thirty (30) day period, Lessor shall have the right for an additional thirty
(30) day period, and after the expiration of the above notice, to sell, assign,
transfer or convey its interest in the Claims as described in said notice, upon
the terms and conditions set forth in said notice, but all subject, however, to
this Agreement, and all rights of Lessee, its successors and assigns, hereunder,
and in and to the Claims.
b. By Lessee
Upon prior written consent of Lessor, Lessee shall have the right at any
time after the Cyprus J.V. to assign its rights hereunder, to contract with
others to mine and to treat ore, Product and materials from the Claims, and to
sublet the same for all purposes of this Agreement, with the same rights and
privileges as are granted herein to Lessee; it is provided, however, that any
such
Exploration and Mining Lease Agreement
Page 14
assignment, contract or sub-lease shall not operate as a release or discharge of
Lessee from the performance of its obligations hereunder until and unless Lessor
has consented thereto in writing. The written consent of Lessor shall not be
unreasonably withheld.
c. Binding Effect
All covenants, conditions and provisions of this Agreement, including the
obligation to payments as required hereunder, shall run with the land, and shall
inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the parties hereto, and their
respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns.
SECTION 23. FORCE MAJEURE
Lessee shall not be liable for failure to perform any of its obligations
hereunder during periods in which performance is prevented by any cause
reasonably beyond Lessee's control, which causes hereinafter are called "force
majeure." For purposes of this Agreement, the term "force majeure" shall
include, but shall not be limited to, fires, floods, windstorms, and other
damage from the elements, strikes, riots, action of government authority and
acts of God. The duration of this Agreement shall be extended for a period equal
to the period for which performance is suspended by reason of force majeure. All
periods of force majeure shall be deemed to begin at the time Lessee stops
performance hereunder by reason of force majeure. Lessee shall notify Lessor of
the beginning and ending date of each such period.
SECTION 24. DISPUTES NOT TO INTERRUPT OPERATIONS
Subject to the above right of Lessor to terminate this Agreement, disputes
or differences between the parties hereto shall not interrupt performance of
this Agreement or the continuation of operations hereunder. In the event of any
dispute or difference, operations may be continued, and settlements and payments
may be made hereunder, in the same manner as prior to such dispute or
difference, until the matters in dispute have been finally determined between
the parties, and thereupon such payments or restitutions shall be made as may be
required under the terms of the settlement or final determination of the
dispute.

SECTION 25. ARBITRATION
a. Right to Arbitration
Any and all matters of dispute or difference that may arise between the
Lessee and the Lessor with respect to any act or thing done or to be done
pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, excepting the payment of royalty,
taxes and assessments as aforesaid, shall be arbitrated in the following manner.
b. Procedure
Subject to the rules of the American Arbitration Association.
SECTION 26. NOTICES
Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be deemed
properly given upon delivering the same to the party to be notified, or upon
mailing the notice, by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested,
to the party to be notified, at the address hereinafter set forth, respectively,
or such other address within the United States of America as the party to be

resolved or settled by final court decision, by arbitration,
negotiation or otherwise. If Cyprus is required or elects to make
any payments to such persons or entities not a party hereto as a

and convert to a five percent (5%) Net Proceeds of Production as set out in

Cyprus $1,150,000
LCMC $ 766,667

twenty percent (20%) Participating Interest in the Property, at such time as
Cyprus completes the obligations set forth in such Section 5.6 and has earned

shall have a period of ninety (90) days to either (a) elect to participate in
the Venture and contribute to each Program and Budget for their entire
respective Participating Interest, or (b) to elect to participate in the Venture
pursuant to Section 6.3(a), or (c) elect to withdraw from the venture and

At Earn-in Cyprus and ICMC shall, irrespective of their actual expenditures
on or with respect to the Property, be deemed to have incurred expenditures as

6.2 Changes in Participating Interests. A Participant's Participating
Interest, shall be changed as follows:
(a) As provided in Section 6.5; or
-20-
(b) Upon an election by a Participant pursuant to Section 6.3 to
contribute less to an adopted Program and Budget than the percentage
reflected by its Participating Interest; or
(c) In the event of default by a Participant in making its agreed-upon
contribution to an adopted Program and Budget, followed by an election by
the other Participant to invoke Section 6.4(b); or
(d) Transfer by a Participant of less than all its Participating
Interest in accordance with Article 14; or
(e) Acquisition of less than all of the Participating Interest of the
other Participant, however arising.
(f) Pursuant to Section 5.6.
6.3 Voluntary Reduction in Participation. A Participant may elect, as
provided in Section 9.5, to limit its contributions to an adopted Program and
Budget as follows:
(a) To some lesser amount than its respective Participating Interest; or
(b) Not at all.
If a Participant elects to contribute to an adopted Program and Budget some
lesser amount than its respective Participating Interest, or not at all, the
Participating Interest of that Participant shall be recalculated at the time of
election by dividing: (i) the sum of (a) the agreed value of the Participant's
deemed expenditure under Section 6.1 and (b) the total of all of the
Participant's actual expenditures including the amount the Participant elects to
contribute to the adopted Program and Budget; by (ii) the sum of (a) and (b)
above for all Participants; and then multiplying the result by one hundred. The
Participating Interest of the other Participant shall thereupon become the
difference between 100% and the recalculated Participating Interest.
-21-
6.4 Default in Making Contributions.
(a) If a Participant defaults in making a contribution or cash call
required by an approved Program and Budget, the non-defaulting Participant
may advance the defaulted contribution on behalf of the defaulting
Participant and treat the same, together with any accrued interest, as a
demand loan bearing interest from the date of the advance at the Prime Rate
plus two percent (2%) compounded quarterly. The failure to repay said loan
upon demand shall be a default. Each Participant hereby grants to the other
a lien upon its interest in the Property and a security interest in its
rights under this Agreement and in its Participating Interest in other
Assets, and the proceeds therefrom, to secure any loan made hereunder,
including interest thereon, reasonable attorneys' fees and all other
reasonable costs and expenses incurred in recovering the loan with interest
and in enforcing such lien or security interest, or both. A non-defaulting
Participant may elect the applicable remedy under this Section 6.4, or, to
the extent a Participant has a lien or security interest under applicable
law, it shall be entitled to its rights and remedies at law and in equity.
All such remedies shall be cumulative. The election of one or more remedies
shall not waive the election of any other remedies. Each Participant hereby
irrevocably appoints the other its attorney-in-fact to execute, file and
record all instruments necessary to perfect or effectuate the provisions
hereof.
(b) The Participants acknowledge that if a Participant defaults in
making a contribution, a cash call, in repaying a loan or any payment, as
required hereunder, it will be difficult to measure the damages resulting
from such default. In the event such default is not cured by the defaulting
Participant within thirty (30) days after receiving notice of such default,
as reasonable liquidated damages, the defaulting Participant shall be
deemed to have withdrawn from the Venture and to have automatically
relinquished its Participating Interest to the non-defaulting Participant;
provided, however, the defaulting Participant shall have the right to
receive only from five percent (5%) of Net Proceeds of Production Royalty,
as set out in Exhibit C, and not
-22-
from any other source, an amount equal to the defaulting Participant's actual
expenditures contributed hereunder. Upon receipt of such amount the defaulting
Participant shall thereafter have no further right, title, or interest under
this Agreement or in the Assets.
6.5 Conversion of Interest. If at any time the Participating Interest of a
Participant is reduced to ten percent (10%) or less by an affirmative election
not to contribute all or some portion of its share pursuant to a Program and
Budget as provided in Article 9 and the resulting application of the dilution
formula in Section 6.3, the diluted Participant shall be deemed to have
withdrawn from the Venture and this Agreement shall terminate; provided,
however, the diluting Participant shall have the right to receive only from five
percent (5%) of Net Proceeds of Production Royalty, as set out in Exhibit C, and
not from any other source, an amount equal to one hundred and fifteen percent
(115%) of the diluting Participant's actual or deemed expenditures contributed
hereunder,' whichever is greater. Upon receipt of such amount the diluting
Participant shall thereafter have no further right, title, or interest under
this Agreement or in the Assets.
6.6 Continuing Liabilities Upon Adjustments of Participating Interests. Any
reduction of a Participant's Participating Interest under this Section 6 shall
not relieve such Participant of its share of any liability, whether it accrued
before or after such reduction, arising out of Operations conducted prior to
such reduction. For purposes of this Article 6, such Participant's share of such
liability shall be equal to its Participating Interest at the time such
liability was incurred. The increased Participating Interest accruing to a
Participant as a result of the reduction of the other Participant's
Participating Interest shall be free of royalties, liens or other encumbrances
arising by, through or under such other Participant, other than those existing
at the time the Property was acquired or those to which both Participants have
given their written consent. An adjustment to a Participating Interest need not
be evidenced during the term of this Agreement by the execution and recording of
appropriate instruments, but each Participant's Participating Interest shall be
shown
-23-
in the books of the Manager. However, either Participant, at any time upon the
request of the other Participant, shall execute and acknowledge instruments
necessary to evidence such adjustment in form sufficient for recording in the
jurisdiction where the Property is located.
6.7 Financing by Cyprus. Within sixty (60) days after Cyprus completes its
requirements to earn an additional twenty percent (20%) Participating Interest
in the Property as set forth in Section 5.6, bringing its Participating Interest
to eighty percent (80%), and ICMC and Cyprus have elected to participate in the
Venture in proportion to their respective Participating Interest, ICMC may elect
in writing to have Cyprus fund ICMC's share of Exploration Expenditures until
the completion of a Feasibility Study. In such event, such expenditures by
Cyprus on behalf of ICMC shall be treated as a loan and shall bear interest at
the Prime Rate plus two percent (2%), compounded quarterly. Such loan shall be
secured by ICMC's interest in the Property and the Assets. Cyprus shall be
repaid from eighty-five percent (85%) of the proceeds received by ICMC from the
sale of its proportionate share of Products, after deduction of operating costs.
ICMC shall execute a document securing the loan with its interest in the
Property and the Assets and assigning to Cyprus such eighty-five percent (85%)
of the proceeds in form and content acceptable to the legal counsel of both
Cyprus and ICMC.
In the event a Feasibility Study is completed and Development is not
recommended and the Management Committee votes to continue Exploration, Cyprus
will continue to fund ICMC's share of Exploration Expenditures until the
completion of another Feasibility Study. Such additional expenditures by Cyprus
on behalf of ICMC shall also be treated as a loan and recouped by Cyprus as
previously set forth in this Section 6.7.
If the Management Committee, after completion of a Feasibility Study, votes
to suspend Operations on the Property for any reason, no additional interest
would accrue on the Exploration Expenditures provided by Cyprus on behalf of
ICMC until Operations are again commenced.
-24-
In the event a Feasibility Study recommends Development, but for reasons
beyond the control of the Participants (e.g. government taking, Force Majeure,
etc.) the Property can never be developed, accrual of interest on the
Exploration Expenditures provided by Cyprus on behalf of ICMC would cease.
Repayment to Cyprus of such loan and any interest accrued would be repaid from
ICMC's share of any compensation that the Participants may be entitled to as a
result of the prohibition of Mining. If no compensation is received by the
Participants, the loan and its accrued interest would be forgiven when the
Participants agree to drop their interest in the Property, discontinue any
litigation which may have commenced and dissolve the Venture.

at least one member representing each Participant is present. The Management
Committee shall not transact any business at a meeting unless a quorum is
present at the commencement of the meeting. If a quorum is not present at the
commencement of the meeting or within one-half hour after the time fixed for the
commencement of the meeting, the meeting shall be adjourned to the same time and
day of the next week at the same place. If a quorum is not present at the
commencement of the adjourned meeting, one representative shall be deemed to
constitute a quorum. Each notice of a meeting shall include an itemized agenda
and detailed back-up information prepared by the Manager in the case of a
regular meeting, or by the Participant calling the meeting in the case of a
special meeting, but any matters may be considered with the consent of all
Participants. The Manager shall prepare minutes of all meetings and shall
distribute copies of such minutes to the Participants within thirty (30) days
after the meeting. The minutes, when signed by all Participants, shall be the

which are reasonably necessary or convenient to: (a) wind up Operations and (b)
complete any transaction and satisfy any obligation, unfinished or unsatisfied,
at the time of such termination or withdrawal, if the transaction or obligation
arises out of Operations prior to such

grant or receive extensions of time or change the method of payment of an
already existing liability or obligation, prosecute and defend actions on behalf
of the Participants and the Venture, mortgage Assets, and take any other
reasonable action in any matter with respect to which the former Participants
continue to have, or appear or are alleged to have, a common interest or a
common liability.

Agreement pursuant to Section 12.2, the other Participant may also elect to
withdraw as a Participant by giving written notice thereof to the other
Participant within thirty-(30) days after receipt of the first Participant's

ARTICLE 13
-38-
SURRENDER OF PROPERTY
13.1 Surrender of Property. The Management Committee may authorize the
Manager to surrender part or all of the Property. If the Management Committee
authorizes any such surrender over the objection of a Participant, the
Participant that desires to surrender shall assign to the objecting Participant,
without cost to the objecting Participant, all of the surrendering Participant's
interest in the Property to be surrendered, and the surrendered Property shall
cease to be part of the Property.
13.2 Reacquisition. If any Property is surrendered under the provisions of
this Article 13, then, unless this Agreement is earlier terminated, neither
Participant nor any Affiliate thereof shall acquire any interest in such
Property or a right to acquire such Property for a period of two years following
the date of such surrender. If a Participant reacquires any Property in
violation of this Section 13.2, the other Participant may elect by notice to the
reacquiring Participant within forty-five (45) days after it has actual notice
of such reacquisition, to have such Property made subject to the terms of this

shall thereafter be treated as Property, and the costs of reacquisition shall be
borne pro rata by the Participants and shall be included for purposes of
calculating the Participants' respective Participating Interests.
ARTICLE 14
TRANSFER OF INTEREST
14.1 General. A Participant shall have the right to Transfer to any third
party all or any part of its interest in or to this Agreement, its Participating
Interest, or the Assets solely as provided in this Article 14.
14.2 Limitations on Free Transferability. The Transfer right of a
Participant in Section 14.1 shall be subject to the following terms and
conditions:
-39-
(a) No transferee of all or any part of the interest of a Participant
in this Agreement, any Participating Interest, or the Assets shall have the
rights of a Participant unless and until the transferring Participant has
provided to the other Participant notice of the Transfer, and except as
provided in Sections 14.2(e) and 14.2(f), the transferee, as of the
effective date of the Transfer, has committed in writing to be bound by
this Agreement to the same extent as the transferring Participant;
(b) No Transfer permitted by this Article 14 shall relieve the
transferring Participant of its share of any liability, whether accruing
before or after such Transfer, which arises out of Operations conducted
prior to such Transfer;
(c) In the event of a Transfer of less than all of a Participating
Interest, the transferring Participant and its transferee shall act and be
treated as one Participant;
(d) Except as provided in Section 14.4 (c), no Participant shall
transfer any interest in this Agreement or the Assets except by Transfer of
part or all of its Participating Interest;
(e) From the date of execution of this Agreement, if the Transfer is
the grant of a security interest by mortgage, deed of trust, pledge, lien
or other encumbrance of any interest in this Agreement, any Participating
Interest or the Assets to secure a loan or other indebtedness of a
Participant in a bona fide transaction, such security interest shall be
subordinate to the terms of this Agreement and the rights and interests of
the other Participant hereunder. Upon any foreclosure or other enforcement
of rights in the security interest the acquiring third party shall be
deemed to have assumed the position of the encumbering Participant with
respect to this Agreement and the other Participant, and it shall comply
with and be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and
(f) If a sale or other commitment or disposition of Products or
proceeds from the sale of Products by a Participant upon distribution to it
pursuant to Article 11 creates in a third party a security interest in
Products or
-40-
proceeds therefrom prior to such distribution, such sales, commitment or
disposition shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
14.3 Right of First Refusal. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 14.2
and 14.4, if either Participant receives an offer to Transfer or otherwise
dispose of all or a part of its Participating Interest in the Property to a
third party, prior to accepting such offer the transferring Participant shall
first offer the interest to the non-transferring Participant at the same terms
and conditions as set forth in the third party offer. The non-transferring
Participant may accept the offer by written notice to the transferring
Participant given within sixty (60) days of receipt of the transferring
Participant's offer. If the non-transferring Participant does not accept the
offer, then the transferring Participant may sell or otherwise dispose of its
interest under terms and conditions not less favorable to it than those set
forth in the third party offer, provided that the sale or other disposition is
effectuated within one hundred and eighty (180) days from the effective date of
the third party offer.
14.4 Exceptions to Right of First Refusal. Section 14.3 shall not apply to
the following:
(a) Transfer by a Participant of all or any part of its interest in this
Agreement, any Participating Interest, or the Assets to an Affiliate, to Amax
Gold, Inc. or Amax Gold Exploration, Inc.;
(b) Incorporation of a Participant, or corporate merger, consolidation,
amalgamation or reorganization of a Participant by which the surviving entity
shall possess substantially all of the stock, or all of the property rights and
interests, and be subject to substantially all of the liabilities and
obligations of that Participant;

this Agreement, any Participating Interest, or the Assets by mortgage, deed of
trust, pledge, lien or other encumbrance which shall be subordinate as set forth
above; or

from sale of Products by a Participant upon distribution to it pursuant to
Article 11.

services provided hereunder. If any method proves unfair or inequitable to the
Manager or the non-Manager, the Participants shall meet and in good faith
endeavor to agree upon changes deemed necessary to correct the unfairness or
inequity. In the event of a conflict between the provisions of these Accounting
Procedures and those of the Agreement, the provisions of the Agreement shall
control.

rendered during any calendar year shall be presumed conclusively to be true and
correct after twelve (12) months following the end of any such calendar year
unless, within the said twelve-month period, the non-Manager takes written
exception thereto and makes claim on the Manager for adjustment. No adjustment

(a) As provided for in this Exhibit "B", the non-Manager shall advance its
share of the estimated cash outlay for the succeeding month's operation. If the

calls will be adjusted downward or the Manager will refund to the non-Manager
excess funds that are not necessary for subsequent Operations.
(b) The Manager shall base its estimates of cash advance requirements on
the latest information available and shall take into account cash on hand which
may be applied to satisfy such requirements in order to reduce the amounts to be
advanced. It is the intent of the Participants to provide adequate funds for the
Operations and to maintain-bank balances at minimum levels.
(c) If the Manager does not request the non-Manager to advance its share of
estimated cash requirements, the non-Manager shall pay its share of expenditures
within thirty (30) days following receipt of the Manager's billing.
(d) Except as provided in Section 6.4 of the Agreement, all payments shall
be made on or before the due date by wire transfer in immediately available
funds to bank accounts designated by the Manager. If not so paid, the unpaid
balance shall bear interest after

(30) day period or portion thereof until such amount is paid, plus attorneys'
fees, court costs, and other costs related to the collection of the unpaid
amounts.

segregated or maintained by the Manager as a separate fund, and may not be
commingled with the Manager's own funds, except with the consent of the
non-Manager Participant.

have the right to audit the accounts and records relating to the accounting made
under this Agreement for any calendar year within the twelve (12) month period
following the end of such calendar year; provided, however, the making of an
audit shall not extend the time for the taking of written exception to and the
adjustments of accounts pursuant to Section 1.3(d). The non-Manager may arrange
for audits by its own staff or outside professional and qualified independent
auditors. Audits shall be conducted in a manner so as to cause the minimum
inconvenience to the Manager. The Manager shall bear no portion of non-Manager's
audit costs unless agreed to by the Manager in advance of such audit.
Notwithstanding the above, in the event the non-Manager does not audit the
accounts and records relating to the accounting made under this Agreement the
Manager shall have conducted annually an audit of the accounts and records
relating to the accounting made under this Agreement. Such audit shall be for
the account of the Venture. If the non-Manager does have an audit performed as
provided herein, the Manager shall not be required to perform an additional

1. Defined Terms. The defined terms used in this Memorandum shall have the
meaning given them in the Joint Venture Agreement.
2. Term. The Joint Venture Agreement shall continue in effect until
terminated as expressly provided therein.
3. Initial Contributions; Initial Participating Interests. Subject to the
provisions of the Joint Venture Agreement: (a) ICMC contributed to the purposes
of the Joint Venture Agreement, as its Initial Contribution, the Assets
described in Exhibit A attached thereto; and (b) Cyprus contributed to the
purposes of the Joint Venture Agreement, as its Initial Contribution, the Assets
described in Exhibit A attached thereto and its commitment to fund Operations in
the amount and within the time specified in the Joint Venture Agreement. As
evidenced by that certain Deed and Assignment dated ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇, ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇
completed the performance of all of its obligations required under the Joint
Venture Agreement to earn its initial Participating Interest in the Property;
and by virtue of such Deed and Assignment, ICMC and Cyprus have remised,
released, assigned, sold and conveyed all of their right, title and interest in
and to the Property
1
unto themselves and their successors and assigns as tenants-in-common as their
interests may appear, to hold the entire undivided interest thereto, subject to
the Joint Venture Agreement. The Property so held is more particularly described
on Exhibit A attached to this Memorandum and by this reference incorporated
herein. As of the date of such Deed and Assignment, the Participating interests
of the Participants were: Cyprus - 50%; ICMC - 50%.
4. Additional Contributions. Subject to certain elections permitted by the
Joint Venture Agreement, Cyprus and ICMC shall be obligated to contribute funds
to adopted Programs and Budgets in proportion to their respective Participating
Interests.
5. Changes in Participating Interests. The Participating Interests shall be
eliminated or changed, in each case in accordance with the provisions of the
Joint Venture Agreement: (a) upon withdrawal or deemed withdrawal of a
Participant; (b) upon an election by either Participant to contribute less to an
adopted Program and Budget than the percentage reflected by its Participating
Interest, or to contribute nothing to such Program and Budget; (c) in the event
of default by either Participant in making its agreed-upon contribution to an
adopted Program and Budget, followed by an election by the other Participant to
invoke certain remedies provided for in the Joint Venture Agreement; (d) upon
Transfer by either Participant of less than all of its Participating Interest;
(e) upon acquisition by either Participant of less than all of the Participating
Interest of the other Participant; or (f) upon Cyprus' election to earn an
additional twenty percent (20%) Participating Interest in the Property.
Participating Interests which are subject to change shall be recalculated in
accordance with the dilution formula set forth in the Joint Venture Agreement. A
Participant whose Participating Interest is reduced through application of such
formula to ten percent (10%) or less shall be deemed to have withdrawn from the
Venture, and such Participant shall have the right to receive a royalty on
production in the amount of five percent (5%) of Net Proceeds, if any,
calculated in accordance with the Joint Venture Agreement. Any reduction or
elimination of a Participant's Participating Interest shall not relieve the
Participant of its share of any liability, whether such liability accrued before
or after such reduction, arising out of Operations conducted prior to such
reduction. Such Participant's share of such liability shall be equal to its
Participating Interest at the time such liability was incurred.
6. Management. Subject to the terms of the Joint Venture Agreement, after
Cyprus has contributed the full amount of its Initial Contribution and has
elected to participate in the Venture, the Participants shall establish a
Management Committee to determine overall policies, objectives, procedures,
methods and actions under this Agreement. The Management Committee shall consist
of one member appointed by ICMC and one member appointed by Cyprus. Each
Participant, acting through its appointed member shall have a vote equal to its
Participating Interest in the Property. Decisions of the Management Committee
shall be decided by Simple Majority of the Participating Interests. In the event
of a deadlock, the Manager shall hold the deciding vote. Cyprus shall be the
initial Manager of the Venture with overall management responsibility for
Operations.
7. Defaults and Remedies. The Joint Venture Agreement describes certain
events the occurrence of which shall constitute a default, and which if not
cured within the times and in
2
the manner specified shall entitle the non-defaulting Participant to the
remedies specified. By way of example, and without limitation, if a Participant
defaults in making a contribution or a cash call, or in repaying a loan or any
payment required under the Joint Venture Agreement, it will be difficult to
measure the damages resulting from such default. As to any such default not
cured by the defaulting Participant within thirty (30) days after receiving
notice thereof, as reasonable liquidated damages, the defaulting Participant
shall be deemed to have withdrawn from the Venture and to have automatically
relinquished its Participating Interest to the non-defaulting Participant;
provided, however, the defaulting Participant shall have the right to receive
only from five percent (5%) of Net Proceeds of Production Royalty, calculated in
accordance with the Joint Venture Agreement, and not from any other source, an
amount equal to the defaulting Participant's actual expenditures under the Joint
Venture Agreement.
8. Disposition of Production. Subject to the terms of the Joint Venture
Agreement, each Participant shall take in kind or separately dispose of its
share of all Products in accordance with its Participating Interest. Any extra
expenditure incurred in the taking in kind or separate disposition by any
Participant of its proportionate share of Products shall be borne by such
Participant.
9. Withdrawal and Termination. Subject to the terms of the Joint Venture
Agreement, a Participant may elect to withdraw as a Participant from the Joint
Venture Agreement by giving forty-five (45) days written notice to the other
Participant of the effective date of withdrawal. Upon such withdrawal, the Joint
Venture Agreement shall terminate, and the withdrawing Participant shall be
deemed to have transferred to the remaining Participant all of its Participating
Interest, including all of its Participating Interest in the Assets and in the
Joint Venture Agreement, without cost and free and clear of all royalties, liens
or other encumbrances arising by, through or under such withdrawing Participant.
Any withdrawal under the Joint Venture Agreement shall not relieve the
withdrawing Participant of its share of liabilities to third parties (whether
such liability accrues before or after such withdrawal) including environmental
liabilities arising out of Operations conducted prior to such withdrawal. For
purposes of this Section, the withdrawing Participant's share of such
liabilities shall be equal to its Participating Interest at the time such
liability was incurred. On termination of the Joint Venture Agreement by
termination, expiration or withdrawal of a Participant, the Participant shall
remain liable for continuing obligations thereunder until final settlement of
all accounts and for any liability, whether it accrues before or after
termination, if it arises out of Operations during the term of the Agreement.
10. Area of Interest. The Joint Venture Agreement describes an Area of
Interest surrounding the Property. Subject to the terms of the Joint Venture
Agreement, any Participant or non-Participant that has a production royalty as
provided for in the Joint Venture Agreement shall notify the other Participant
that it has staked or otherwise acquired any right or interest within the Area
of Interest. The party receiving notice shall elect, within thirty (30) days of
receipt of such notice, whether to require that such right or interest be
included in the Property for all purposes of the Joint Venture Agreement. If the
Participant receiving such notice shall elect to include such right or interest
in the Property, it shall reimburse the Acquiring Participant for that portion
of the acquisition cost equivalent to its Participating Interest. Furthermore,
any
3
property within the Area of Interest which was owned by ICMC or Cyprus on the
effective date of the Joint Venture Agreement, but not included in Exhibit A,
shall be considered Property subject to the Joint Venture Agreement.
11. Non-Compete Covenant. Subject to the terms of the Joint Venture
Agreement, neither a Participant that withdraws or is deemed to have withdrawn
from the Venture shall directly or indirectly acquire any interest in property
within the Area of Interest for two (2) years after the effective date of
withdrawal. A Participant who breaches this covenant shall offer to convey to
the other Participant, without cost, any such property or interest so acquired.
12. Transfer of Interest; Preemptive Right. The Transfer by one Participant
to any third party of an interest in its Participating Interest, including an
interest in the Joint Venture Agreement or the Assets, shall be made solely as
provided in the Joint Venture Agreement and shall be subject to a preemptive
right of the other Participant as and to the extent provided in the Joint
Venture Agreement.
13. Relationship of the Participants. Nothing contained in this Memorandum
or the Joint Venture Agreement shall be deemed to constitute either Participant
the partner of the other, or, except as otherwise expressly provided, to
constitute either Participant the agent or legal representative of the other, or
to create any fiduciary relationship between them. The Participants do not
intend to create, and the Joint Venture Agreement shall not be construed to
create, any mining, commercial or other partnership. Neither Participant shall
have any authority to act for or assume any obligation or responsibility on
behalf of the other Participant, except as otherwise expressly provided in the
Joint Venture Agreement The rights, duties, obligations and liabilities of the
Participants shall be several and not joint or collective. Each Participant
shall be responsible only for its obligations as set out in the Joint Venture
Agreement, and shall be liable only for its share of the costs and expenses as
provided in the Joint Venture Agreement, and it is the express intention of the
Participants that their ownership of Assets and the rights acquired thereunder
shall be as tenants in common.
14. Entire Agreement; Successors and Assigns. The Joint Venture Agreement,
together with the Exhibits which are attached thereto and incorporated therein,
contains the entire understanding of the Participants and supersedes all prior
agreements and understandings between the Participants relating to the subject
matter thereof. No modification of this Memorandum or the Joint Venture
Agreement shall be valid unless made in writing and duly executed by both
Participants. The Joint Venture Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the respective successors and permitted assigns of the Participants.
15. Additional Terms. The Joint Venture Agreement contains additional
provisions pertaining to representations and warranties of the Participants;
indemnities; matters pertaining to meetings of the Management Committee and the
authority of the Manager to act on behalf of the Participants and the Venture;
the preparation, presentation and approval of Programs and Budgets; the
confidentiality of, and rights of the Participants in, various kinds of data and
information pertaining to the Venture; the surrender and reacquisition of all or
portions of the Property; the resolution of disputes between the Participants;
force majeure; and various other
4
provisions. Reference is made to the Joint Venture Agreement for such other
terms and conditions as govern the Joint Venture Agreement, which provisions,
terms and conditions are by this reference incorporated herein. Nothing in this
Memorandum shall limit or affect the rights and duties of the parties under the
Joint Venture Agreement. Information regarding the Joint Venture Agreement can
be obtained from ICMC or Cyprus at the addresses set forth above.
16. Conflicting Terms. In the event of any conflict or discrepancy between
the terms and conditions set forth in this Memorandum and the Joint Venture
Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Joint Venture Agreement shall
control.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Memorandum of Joint
Venture Agreement as of the date first above written.

FIRST AMENDMENT TO
JOINT VENTURE AGREEMENT
THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO JOINT VENTURE AGREEMENT is made effective as of
October 7, 1997, between IDAHO CONSOLIDATED METALS CORPORATION, a British
Columbia corporation, with an address of ▇.▇. ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇
(hereinafter referred to "ICMC"), and CYPRUS GOLD EXPLORATION CORPORATION, a
Delaware corporation, with offices at ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇,
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ (hereinafter referred to as "Cyprus").
RECITALS
A. ICMC and Cyprus entered into that certain Joint Venture Agreement
effective May 20, 1996 (the "Petsite Joint Venture Agreement"), pursuant to
which, among other things, ICMC and Cyprus each contributed to the joint venture
established therein certain patented and unpatented mining claims and agreements
and other interests in respect thereof, which mining claims, agreements and
interests are defined in the Petsite Joint Venture Agreement as the "Property."
B. Since the effective date of the Petsite Joint Venture Agreement, each
party has acquired or located certain additional patented and unpatented mining
claims and agreements and other interests in respect thereof, which the parties
have agreed to include within the definition of "Property" for all purposes
under the Petsite Joint Venture Agreement.
C. ICMC and Cyprus desire to amend the Petsite Joint Venture Agreement to
conform the definition of "Property" therein to the mining claims, agreements
and interests actually held by the parties subject to the Petsite Joint Venture
Agreement.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as
follows:
1. Defined Terms. All defined terms used in this First Amendment shall have the
meaning given to them in the Petsite Joint Venture Agreement.
2. "Property" Defined. Exhibits A-1 and A-2 to the Petsite Joint Venture
Agreement are deleted in their entirety, and in their place are inserted the new
Exhibit A attached to this First Amendment and by this reference incorporated
herein. Exhibit A describes the patented and unpatented mining claims and the
agreements and other interests in respect thereof which ICMC and Cyprus hold as
tenants in common, subject to the Petsite Joint Venture Agreement.
3. Acknowledgment. ICMC and Cyprus each acknowledge their acquisition of an
interest in those certain unpatented mining claims known as the CNTL #1 through
#9 and
1
the CNTL #20 (Idaho BLM Nos. 100371 through 100379, inclusive, and No. 100390)
by virtue of that certain Amendment to Friday Option Agreement dated September
5, 1997 by and between ICMC, Cyprus, Arctic Fox Ltd., and Idaho Gold
Corporation, and by virtue of that certain First Amendment to Orogrande/Deadwood
Option Agreement dated September 5, 1997 by and between the same parties. ICMC
and Cyprus further acknowledge that the CNTL claims fall within the Area of
Interest described in the Petsite Joint Venture Agreement, but that ICMC and
Cyprus have agreed to hold these claims subject to that certain Joint Venture
Agreement between them dated June 13, 1997, in respect of the Orogrande and
Deadwood Properties. ICMC and Cyprus agree that their mutual agreement to
exclude the CNTL claims from the definition of "Property" in the Petsite Joint
Venture Agreement shall not be deemed or construed to constitute any waiver,
default or failure of performance under the Petsite Joint Venture Agreement.
4. Ratification. Except as specifically amended herein, the Petsite Joint
Venture Agreement remains in full force and effect. ICMC and Cyprus confirm that
as of the effective date of this First Amendment, all of the obligations of ICMC
and Cyprus under the Petsite Joint Venture Agreement have been fully performed
and that neither ICMC nor Cyprus are in default thereof.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this First
Amendment to Joint Venture Agreement on the day and year first above written.
