For the avoidance of doubt, if the SMMA Participant exercises the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Tag-Along Right and the SMMA Ojos Tag-Along Right, notwithstanding any failure of either of Sumitomo Corporation or Sumitomo Metal Mining Co., Ltd. to become a party hereto in its capacity as a Tag-Along Seller prior to the Closing Date (as determined in accordance with Section 2.02), the closing of the purchase and sale of the Freeport Subject Shares shall occur in accordance with the terms of this Agreement on the Closing Date (as determined in accordance with Section 2.02).

For the avoidance of doubt, any amounts required to be added to or subtracted from the Base Purchase Price pursuant to this Section 2.02(a) (other than amounts

(b) If the Buyers disagree with any of Freeport's calculations of the Cash Adjustment Amount, the Permitted Leakage, or the Notified Leakage set forth in the notice delivered pursuant to Section 2.03(a) or Freeport’s calculations of the Accrued Preferred Dividend Amount, Working Capital, Cash or the Base Purchase Price set forth on Schedule 2.03(b), the Buyers may, within 90 days after the Closing Date, deliver a notice to the Sellers disagreeing with such calculation(s) and, which specifies the Buyers’ calculation(s) of such amount(s) and, in reasonable detail, the Buyers’ grounds for such disagreement. Any such notice of disagreement shall specify those items or amounts as to which the Buyers disagree and the Buyers shall be deemed to have agreed with all other items and amounts forming a part of the Cash Adjustment Amount, the Permitted Leakage, the Notified Leakage, the Accrued Preferred Dividend Amount, Working Capital, Cash and/or the Base Purchase Price, as applicable.

(c) If a notice of disagreement shall be duly delivered pursuant to Section 2.03(b), the Buyers and Sellers shall, during the 30 days following such delivery, use their reasonable best efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts in order to determine, as may be required, the Cash Adjustment Amount, the Permitted Leakage, the Notified Leakage, the Accrued Preferred Dividend Amount, Working Capital, Cash

Such independent accountant shall deliver to the Buyers and Sellers, as promptly as practicable, a report setting forth such calculation(s). Such report shall be final and binding upon the Buyers and Sellers. The cost of such review and report shall be borne equally by the Buyers, on the one hand, and Sellers (in accordance with their respective Allocable Shares), on the other hand.

(d) The Buyers and Sellers agree that they will, and agree to cause their respective independent accountants and the Companies to, cooperate and assist in the calculation of the Cash Adjustment Amount, the Permitted Leakage, the Notified Leakage, the Accrued Preferred Dividend Amount, Working Capital, Cash and/or the Base Purchase Price, and in the resolution of any amounts or items of dispute and the conduct of the audits and reviews referred to in this Section 2.03, including the making available to the extent necessary of books, records, work papers and personnel.

(e) If as a result of settlement between the Buyers and Sellers, or as determined by the said independent accountants, it shall be determined that the Buyers have made an overpayment to Sellers on Closing, then the amount of such overpayment shall forthwith be due and owing by the applicable Sellers to the Buyers or, alternatively, if it shall be determined that the Buyers have underpaid Sellers on Closing, then the amount of such underpayment shall forthwith be due and owing by Buyers to the applicable Sellers, subject to withholding in accordance with Applicable Law.

Section 2.04. Earn-out Payments. As promptly as practicable, and in no event later than 10 Business Days, after it has been determined that any Earn-out Payment is payable with respect to any Earn-out Year in accordance with Appendix A, Buyers shall deliver to each Seller an amount equal to such Seller’s Allocable Share of such Earn-out Payment in immediately available funds by wire transfer to an account designated by such Seller by notice to Buyers (or if not so designated, then by certified or official bank check payable in next day funds to the order of such Seller in such amount), net of any Chilean withholding tax in accordance with Applicable Law. Each capitalized term used in this Section and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning assigned such term in Appendix A.

Section 2.05. Provisional Withholding Obligations. Buyers shall be entitled to withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to Freeport pursuant to this

Agreement and remit to the Chilean Treasury (Tesorería General de la República) the amount of Chilean withholding tax required by Applicable Law.

(b) Prior to Closing and for a period of one year after the Closing or until termination of this Agreement (and, in the case of all material written, oral or other information obtained in confidence from Buyers in connection with any Earn-out Payment, until one year after the Earn-out Termination Date (as defined in Appendix A)), as applicable, each Seller shall maintain in confidence, and will cause its Affiliates and its and their respective representatives to maintain in confidence all material written, oral, or other information obtained in confidence from Buyers in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, except to the extent that such information can be shown to have been (i) previously known on a nonconfidential basis by such Seller, (ii) in the public domain through no fault of such Seller or (iii) later lawfully acquired by such Seller from sources other than Buyers or to the extent such information is required to be disclosed by Applicable Law or the applicable rules or regulations of any securities exchange or legal process.

Section 6.02. Access; Seller Confidentiality. Buyers will cause the Companies, on and after the Closing Date for a period of six years to afford promptly to each Seller and its agents reasonable access to their properties, books, records, employees and auditors to the extent necessary to permit such Seller to determine any matter relating to its rights and obligations hereunder or to any period ending on or before the Closing Date; provided that any such access by such Seller shall not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of Buyers or the Companies. In addition, Buyers will cause the Companies after the Closing Date to provide financial information to each Seller with respect to the fiscal quarter and month or portions thereof ending on or prior to the Closing Date, in a manner and within a time period consistent with the Companies’ past practice, in order to enable such Seller to satisfy its financial reporting obligations with respect to such pre-Closing periods. Each Seller will hold, and will use its best efforts to cause its officers, directors, employees, accountants, counsel, consultants, advisors and agents to hold, in confidence, unless compelled to disclose by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of Applicable Law, all confidential documents and information concerning the Companies provided to it pursuant to this Section. Each Seller will be liable for a breach by its representatives of such confidentiality obligations.

To the extent practicable, each Seller shall give Buyers at least ten days’ prior written notice (unless less time is required by Applicable Law or the applicable rules or regulations of any securities exchange or legal process) before disclosing any of the said confidential documents and information and, in making such disclosures, such Seller shall and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its representatives to disclose only that portion thereof required to be disclosed and, at Buyers’ request, shall take all reasonable best efforts, at Buyers’ expense, to preserve the confidentiality thereof, including supporting Buyers in obtaining protective orders.

Section 6.03. Waiver of Conflicts Regarding Representation; Nonassertion of Attorney-Client Privilege. (a) Each Buyer waives and will not assert, and agrees to cause the Companies to waive and not to assert, any conflict of interest arising out of or relating to the representation, after the Closing (the “Post-Closing Representation”), of any Seller or any Subsidiary Seller or any of their respective Affiliates or any shareholder, officer, employee or director of any of them or either Company (any such Person, a “Designated Person”) in any matter involving the Transaction Agreements or any other agreements or transactions contemplated thereby, by any legal counsel currently representing any Seller, Subsidiary Sellers or the Companies in connection with the Transaction Agreements or any other agreements or transactions contemplated thereby (the “Current Representation”).

(b) Each Buyer waives and will not assert, and agrees to cause the Companies to waive and to not assert, any attorney-client privilege with respect to any communication between any legal counsel and any Designated Person occurring during the Current Representation in connection with any Post-Closing Representation, including in connection with a dispute with either Buyer, and following the Closing, with the Companies, it being the intention of the parties hereto that all such rights to such attorney-client privilege and to control such attorney-client privilege shall be retained by the applicable Seller; provided that the foregoing waiver and acknowledgement of retention shall not extend to any communication not involving the Transaction Agreements or any other agreements or transactions contemplated thereby, or to communications with any Person other than the Designated Persons and their advisers.

Section 6.04. Reasonable Best Efforts; Further Assurances. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Buyers and Sellers will use their reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, both before and after Closing, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary or desirable under Applicable Law to consummate or implement expeditiously the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements including, in the case of Freeport, co-operating in connection with the assignment of the Foreign Investment Contracts. Freeport agrees to cause each Freeport Subsidiary Seller, and Freeport, prior to the Closing, and Buyers, after the Closing, agree to cause each Company, to execute and deliver such other documents, certificates, agreements and other writings (including notarial deeds for the assignment to the Buyers of each of the Foreign Investment Contracts in the form proposed by the Chilean Foreign Investment Committee after the consent of the Chilean Foreign Investment Committee is obtained) and to take such other actions as may be necessary or

desirable in order to consummate or implement expeditiously the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements.

(b) In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each of Sellers and Buyers shall provide or cause to be provided to any Governmental Authority information and documents required or requested by any such Governmental Authority, including by (i) filing any notification and report form and related material required under any Antitrust Law with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements as promptly as practicable after the date hereof and (ii) supplying as promptly as practicable any additional information and documentary material that may be requested by any Governmental Authority pursuant to any Antitrust Law.

(c) Each of Sellers and Buyers shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, cooperate reasonably with one another and keep the other party reasonably informed of material matters relating to or in connection with the taking of the actions contemplated by this Section, including promptly informing the other party(ies) of all material communications with any Governmental Authority. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, Sellers and Buyers shall (i) consult with one another in advance of any meeting or teleconference with such Governmental Authority, (ii) provide one another with an opportunity to attend or participate in such meeting or teleconference, (iii) afford one another the right to review any written materials to be submitted to such Governmental Authority in advance of the submission thereof, and (iv) furnish one another with copies of all written materials received by or on behalf of such party from such Governmental Authority, in each case to the extent permitted by Applicable Law.

Section 6.05. Certain Filings. Sellers and Buyers shall cooperate with one another (i) in determining whether any action by or in respect of, or filing with, any Governmental Authority is required, or any actions, consents, approvals or waivers are required to be obtained from the parties to any material contracts, in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements; and (ii) in taking such actions or making any such filings, furnishing information required in connection therewith and seeking timely to obtain any such actions, consents, approvals or waivers.

Section 6.06. Notices of Certain Events. Each party shall promptly notify the other party(ies) of:

(a) any notice or other communication from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements;

(b) any notice or other communication from any Governmental Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements, including the registration of the relevant notarial deeds referred to in Section 2.02(b) of this Agreement, in the relevant shareholders’ registry and the property of mines in ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ in accordance with Applicable Law; and

(c) (i) with respect to each Seller, any actions, suits, claims, investigations or proceedings commenced relating to such Seller, its Subsidiary Sellers or the Companies that, if pending on the date of this Agreement, would have been required to have been disclosed pursuant to Article 3; and (ii) with respect to Buyers, any actions, suits, claims, investigations or proceedings commenced relating to either Buyer or its Affiliates that, if pending on the date of this Agreement, would have been required to have been disclosed pursuant to Section 4.06.

Section 6.07. Shareholders Agreements of the Companies; SMMA Tag-Along Rights. (a) Unless the SMMA Participant exercises either or both of the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Tag-Along Right and the SMMA Ojos Tag-Along Right (in which case, as applicable, the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Shareholders’ Agreement and/or the Ojos Shareholders’ Agreement shall be terminated in accordance with Section 2.02(i)), Buyers shall take all action and execute such documents and agreements (including principals agreements) that are necessary or desirable in order to comply with the requirements of each of Section 9.7 of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Shareholders’ Agreement and Section 9.7 of the Ojos Shareholders’ Agreement and to effect the transfer of the Freeport Subject Shares and related rights from the Freeport Subsidiary Sellers to the applicable Buyer, and Freeport will, and will cause Freeport Subsidiary Sellers to, cooperate with Buyers in satisfying such requirements and Freeport will comply with all such requirements applicable to Freeport or the Freeport Subsidiary Sellers.

(b) If the SMMA Participant exercises the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Tag-Along Right and the SMMA Ojos Tag-Along Right, Freeport and Buyers will promptly comply with the requirements of Section 9.7 of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Shareholders’ Agreement and the Ojos Shareholders’ Agreement, as applicable (it being understood Buyers shall elect to purchase the applicable SMMA Subject Shares in accordance with the terms of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Shareholders’ Agreement and the Ojos Shareholders’ Agreement), and each of Sumitomo Corporation and Sumitomo Metal Mining Co., Ltd. shall execute a counterpart to this Agreement and shall become a party hereto in its capacity as a Tag-Along Seller on or before the fifth Business Day prior to the Closing Date (as determined in accordance with Section 2.02); provided, however, notwithstanding any failure of either Sumitomo Corporation or Sumitomo Metal Mining Co., Ltd. (or, at the option of Buyers, another SMMA Participant) to become a party hereto in its capacity as a Tag-Along Seller, all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement as between Freeport and Buyers shall remain in full force and effect, the closing of the purchase and sale of the Freeport Subject Shares shall occur in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and Buyers shall have the sole obligation to purchase the SMMA Subject Shares from the SMMA Participant at the same pro rata price and on the same terms and conditions as those applicable to the purchase of the Freeport Subject Shares from Freeport and the Freeport Subsidiary Sellers.

(c) If the SMMA Participant exercises the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Tag-Along Right but not the SMMA Ojos Tag-Along Right or if the SMMA Participant exercises the SMMA Ojos Tag-Along Right but not the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Tag-Along Right, Freeport and Buyers agree to negotiate in good faith to (i) amend this Agreement to provide for the purchase by Buyers of the applicable SMMA Subject Shares with respect to which the

▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Tag-Along Right or the SMMA Ojos Tag-Along Right was exercised and otherwise modify this Agreement such that the terms and conditions of this Agreement as so modified reflect as nearly as practicable the original intent of Freeport and Buyers (including as evidenced by the amount of the Purchase Price and the Allocable Share allocated to each of the Subject Shares in accordance with Section 2.01) and (ii) arrange for agreements to be entered into to allow the respective businesses of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Ojos to continue to operate substantially as such businesses operate as of the date hereof, without interruption or delay, and Freeport and Buyers shall execute, or shall cause the execution of, such documents and agreements (including principals agreements) that are necessary or desirable in order to comply with the requirements of Section 9.7 of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Shareholders’ Agreement, if the SMMA Participant exercises the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Tag-Along Right and Section 9.7 of the Ojos Shareholders’ Agreement if the SMMA Participant exercises the Ojos Tag-Along Right. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no party shall have any obligation to effect the Closing unless and until such amendments and arrangements referred to in the preceding clauses (i) and (ii) have been agreed upon and implemented.

Section 6.08. Public Announcements. The parties agree to consult with each other before issuing any press release or making any public statement with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and, except for any press releases and public announcements the making of which may be required by Applicable Law or any listing agreement with any national securities exchange or as may be required in order for the Buyers or their Affiliates to obtain requisite financing in connection with the transactions contemplated in this Agreement, will not issue any such press release or make any such public statement prior to such consultation.

Section 6.09. Intercompany Accounts. All intercompany receivables, payables and other balances between a Seller or its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Companies, on the other hand existing as of the Closing (other than those arising as a result of concentrate sales, which shall be settled in the ordinary course pursuant to the terms of payment thereof) (the “Intercompany Accounts”) shall be settled in the manner provided in this Section. Each Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and the Companies to, use good faith efforts to settle on or prior to the Closing Date, all such Intercompany Accounts (other than Intercompany Accounts arising as a result of concentrate sales) by one or more cash payments in satisfaction of such amounts. From and after the Closing Date, each Seller shall, and Buyers shall cause the Companies to, use good faith efforts to settle any such Intercompany Accounts (other than Intercompany Accounts arising as a result of concentrate sales) that are not settled as of the Closing Date and each Buyer shall provide its reasonable cooperation in connection therewith; provided that any claim by a Seller and its Affiliates, on the one hand, or the Companies, on the other hand, with respect to any such Intercompany Account must be made in writing within 90 days of the Closing Date, and any such Intercompany Account that is not settled, or that a claim in respect of is not made in compliance with this Section 6.09, within such 90 day period shall be deemed waived and released without any further action by either party.

Section 6.10. Nature of Obligations. Each Buyer hereby agrees that it shall be jointly and severally liable for the obligations of each Buyer and the Buyers under this Agreement, including pursuant to Article 2 and Article 10.

ARTICLE 7

TAX MATTERS

Section 7.01. Tax Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification by Freeport. From and after the Closing Date, each Seller shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify Buyers, the Companies and their Affiliates (each a “Tax Indemnified Buyer Party” and collectively, the “Tax Indemnified Buyer Parties”) against and hold them harmless from any and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs, expenses, interest, awards, judgments and penalties (including without limitation, reasonable fees for both in-house and outside counsel, accountants and other outside consultants) suffered or incurred (each a “Tax Loss” and collectively, the “Tax Losses”) arising out of (i) Taxes of the Companies for Pre-Balance Sheet Taxes; or (ii) without duplication, Pre-Balance Sheet Taxes imposed on a Tax Indemnified Buyer Party as a result of (1) a breach of a representation or warranty set forth in Section 3.24 of this Agreement or (2) a breach of a covenant or agreement set forth in Section 5.05 of this Agreement; provided that neither Freeport nor the Tag-Along Sellers shall have an obligation or liability to indemnify any Tax Indemnified Buyer Party pursuant to this Section 7.01 for the amount of any Tax Loss reflected as a liability in the relevant Balance Sheet; provided further, that in the case of Tax Losses suffered or incurred by the Companies, the amounts recoverable by any Tax Indemnified Buyer Party in respect of such Tax Losses shall be limited to 80% of the amount of such Tax Losses, unless the SMMA Participant exercises the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Tag-Along Right or the SMMA Ojos Tag-Along Right.

(b) Indemnification by Buyer. From and after the Closing Date, Buyers shall indemnify each Seller and its Affiliates (each, a “Tax Indemnified Seller Party” and collectively, the “Tax Indemnified Seller Parties”) against and hold them harmless from any and all Tax Losses arising out of Taxes of the Companies for periods or portions thereof beginning after the Balance Sheet Date (“Post-Balance Sheet Taxes”) other than amounts for which a Tax Indemnified Buyer Party is indemnified by a Seller under Section 7.01(a).

Section 7.02. Tax Indemnification Procedures. (a) After the Closing, each party to this Agreement (whether Buyers or any Seller, as the case may be) shall promptly notify the other party in writing of any demand, claim or notice of the commencement of an audit received by such party from any Taxing Authority or any other Person with respect to Taxes for which such other party is liable pursuant to Section 7.01; provided, however, that a failure to give such notice will not affect such other party’s rights to indemnification under this Article 7, except to the extent that such party is actually prejudiced thereby. Such notice shall contain factual information (to the extent known) describing the asserted Tax liability and shall include copies of the relevant portion of

any notice or other document received from any Taxing Authority or any other Person in respect of any such asserted Tax liability.

(b) Payment by an indemnitor of any amount due to an indemnitee under Article 7 of this Agreement shall be made within ten days following written notice by the indemnitee that payment of such amounts to the appropriate Taxing Authority or other applicable third party is due by the indemnitee, provided that the indemnitor shall not be required to make any payment earlier than five Business Days before it is due to the appropriate Taxing Authority or applicable third party. In the case of a Tax that is contested in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.05, payment of such contested Tax will not be considered due earlier than the date a Final Determination to such effect is made by such Taxing Authority or a court. For this purpose, a “Final Determination” shall mean a settlement, compromise, or other binding agreement, such as a closing agreement or other comparable agreement, with the relevant Taxing Authority, a deficiency notice with respect to which the period for filing a petition, claim or remedy with the relevant state, local or foreign tribunal has expired or a final decision of any court of competent jurisdiction that is not subject to any appeal or remedy or as to which the time for appeal has expired.

(c) All amounts required to be paid pursuant to this Article 7 shall be paid promptly in immediately available funds by wire transfer to a bank account designated by the indemnified party.

Section 7.03. Tax Covenants. Each Buyer covenants that it shall not cause or permit the Companies or any Affiliate of either Buyer:

(a) to take any action on the Closing Date other than in the Ordinary Course of Business, including but not limited to the distribution of any dividend or the effectuation of any redemption that could give rise to any Tax liability or reduce any Tax Asset of the Subsidiary Sellers or give rise to any loss of the Subsidiary Sellers under this Agreement; or

(b) without the prior written consent of each of the Sellers (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) (i) to make or change any Tax election; (ii) to amend, or request or permit the amendment of, or make or lodge any objection or appeal in relation to any Tax Returns contemplated in Section 7.05(d); (iii) apply to any Tax Authority for any binding or non-binding opinion, ruling or other determination in relation to any act, matter or transaction covered by any such Tax Returns or to any act, matter or transaction occurring on or before the Balance Sheet Date; or (iv) furnish to any Tax Authority any information (in writing or otherwise) in relation to any such Tax Returns or to any act, matter or transaction occurring on or before the Balance Sheet Date.

Without limitation on the foregoing, for the period after Closing and through the close of each such Company’s then current taxable year (as defined in the Code), Buyers shall not cause or permit such Company to engage in the following prohibited transactions:

(i) declare or pay a dividend unless required by the terms of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Shareholders’ Agreement or the Ojos Shareholders’ Agreement;

(ii) make or cause to be made any investment in U.S. property within the meaning of Section 956 of the Code; or

(iii) conduct business outside the Ordinary Course of Business or engage in any transaction outside the Ordinary Course of Business (in either case based upon the Company’s historic activities) if such business or activities would reasonably be expected to impact (1) the amount or character of the Subsidiary

Sellers’ gross income reportable under Section 1248 of the Code; (2) the amount of the Subsidiary Sellers’ associated deemed-paid foreign taxes within the meaning of Section 902 of the Code that are associated with the Section 1248 inclusion; or (3) the amount of Subsidiary Sellers’ subpart F income within the meaning of Section 952 of the Code.

Section 7.04. Tax Returns.

(a) Freeport shall file or cause to be filed, when due (taking into account any extension of a required filing date), all Tax Returns with respect to the Companies that are required to be filed on or prior to the Closing Date and timely cause the Companies to pay all Taxes shown as due on such Tax Returns. With respect to Tax Returns that relate to the Post-Balance Sheet Tax Period, any Tax Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice and without a change of any election or any accounting method (unless otherwise required by applicable law). Such Tax Returns shall be submitted by Freeport to Buyers (together with schedules, statements and, to the extent reasonably requested by Buyers, supporting documentation) at least 30 days prior to the due date (including any applicable extension) of such return. With respect to Tax Returns that relate to the Post-Balance Sheet Tax Period, Buyers shall have the right to review and comment on such Tax Returns, and such returns shall reflect Buyers' reasonable comments.

(b) Buyers shall file, or cause to be filed, when due (taking into account any extensions of a required filing date), all Tax Returns for Income Taxes with respect to the Companies that are required to be filed with any taxing authority by either of the Companies after the Closing Date with respect to a Pre-Balance Sheet Tax Period or a Straddle Tax Period (each a “Buyer-Filed Income Tax Return”). Any Buyer-Filed Income Tax Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice and without a change of any election or any accounting method (unless otherwise required by applicable law). Buyer-Filed Income Tax Returns shall be submitted by Buyers to Freeport (together with schedules, statements and, to the extent reasonably requested by Freeport, supporting documentation) at least 30 days prior to the due date (including any applicable extension) of such return. Freeport shall have the right to review and comment on such Buyer-Filed Income Tax Return, which shall not be filed without Freeport’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(c) If Freeport, within ten Business Days after receipt of any such Buyer-Filed Income Tax Return, notifies Buyers in writing that it objects to any items in such return, the disputed item shall be resolved in a manner mutually agreeable to both parties, and if not so resolved, then by a jointly retained nationally recognized accounting firm, who shall not have any material relationship with Buyers, Sellers, Subsidiary Sellers or their Affiliates (an “Accounting Referee”) within a reasonable time, taking into account the deadline for filing such return. Upon resolution of all such items, the relevant Buyer-Filed Income Tax Return shall be adjusted to reflect such resolution and shall be binding upon the parties without further adjustment. The costs, fees and expenses of such Accounting Referee shall be borne equally by Buyers, on the one hand, and Freeport, on the other hand. Neither Company shall amend any Tax Return with respect to Income Tax for a Pre-Balance Sheet Tax Period or a Straddle Tax Period without the prior written consent of Freeport, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

(d) Buyers shall pay or cause to be paid to the appropriate Taxing Authority all Taxes with respect to any Buyer-Filed Income Tax Return filed under this Article in accordance with Applicable Law. To the extent the amount of any Pre-Balance Sheet Taxes shown as due and payable on any Buyer-Filed Income Tax Return prepared in compliance with this Article, exceeds the amount, if any, of such Taxes reflected as a liability in the relevant Balance Sheet, (i) Freeport shall pay to the applicable Buyer(s), without set-off or deduction, an amount equal to 80% of such excess within ten days after request therefore by the Buyers by submission of an invoice to Freeport evidencing such payment and a statement showing the allocation to Pre-Balance Sheet Taxes and (ii) if the SMMA Participant has exercised the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Tag-Along Right and the Ojos Tag-Along Right, the Tag-Along Sellers shall pay to the applicable Buyer(s), without set-off or deduction, an amount equal to 20% of such excess within ten days after request therefore by the Buyers by submission of an invoice to the Tag-Along Sellers evidencing such payment and a statement showing the allocation to Pre-Balance Sheet Taxes.

(e) The parties hereto will, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, elect with the relevant Taxing Authority to treat a portion of any Straddle Tax Period as a short taxable period ending as of the close of business on the Closing Date.

(f) Except as provided in this Section, Freeport will be entitled to 80%, and, if the SMMA Participant has exercised the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Tag-Along Right and the Ojos Tag-Along Right, the Tag-Along Sellers shall be entitled to 20%, of any refunds (including interest received thereon) in respect of any Pre-Balance Sheet Tax Period net of any income taxes imposed thereon, except to the extent any such refund was taken into account as a current asset in the relevant Balance Sheet. Nothing in this Section will preclude the Companies from making an election under Section 172(h) of the Code or any comparable provision of Tax law or regulations for any taxable year beginning after the Closing Date.

(g) Buyers shall pay to each Seller any refund to which it is entitled pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section no later than ten days following receipt of such refund, net of any income taxes imposed thereon. If any Pre-Balance Sheet Income Tax paid by any Seller, the Companies, Subsidiary Sellers or any predecessor or Affiliate thereof has the

effect of reducing any Tax liability with respect to a Post-Balance Sheet Tax Period, Buyers or the Companies shall promptly pay or cause to be paid to Freeport 80%, and, if the SMMA Participant has exercised the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Tag-Along Right and the Ojos Tag-Along Right, to the Tag-Along Sellers 20%, of the amount of such reduction in Tax liability when either Buyer, any Affiliate of either Buyer or the Companies are entitled thereto, net of any income taxes imposed thereon, except to the extent any such credit or reduction in Tax liability was taken into account as a current asset in the relevant Balance Sheet. Unless such treatment is contrary to Applicable Law, the parties agree that any amounts paid to either of the Sellers pursuant to paragraphs (f) and (g) of this Section will be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Chilean tax law purposes.

(h) If Buyers notify Sellers in writing that the Companies have become entitled to a refund of Taxes described above, and such refund (or any portion thereof) is attributable solely to the carryback of losses, credits or similar items of the Companies, as the case may be, from a Post-Balance Sheet Tax Period, the Companies will file a claim for a refund with respect to such losses, credits or similar items and the Companies will be entitled to retain the amount of any such refund received (together with interest thereon).

(i) Except as provided in paragraphs (f) and (g) of this Section 7.04, the Companies will be entitled to any refunds (including any interest received thereon), in respect of any federal, state, local or foreign Tax liability of the Companies.

(j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all Transfer Taxes incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be borne by Buyers. Buyers will, at their own expense, file all necessary Tax Returns with respect to all such Transfer Taxes, and, if required by Applicable Law, each Seller will join in the execution of any such Tax Returns.

Section 7.05. Cooperation on Tax and Accounting Matters.

(a) In the case of any audit, claim for refund, or administrative or judicial proceeding involving any asserted Tax liability or refund with respect to the Companies (any such audit, claim for refund, or proceeding relating to an asserted Tax liability referred to herein as a “Contest”) after the Closing Date that relates solely to Pre-Balance Sheet Taxes, Freeport shall control the conduct of such Contest, but Buyers shall have the right to participate in such Contest at Buyers’ own expense, and Freeport shall not be able to settle, compromise and/or concede any portion of such Contest that is reasonably likely to affect the Tax liability of the Companies for any taxable year (or portion thereof) beginning after the Balance Sheet Date without the consent of Buyers, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned; provided, that, with respect to any such Contest, if Freeport notifies Buyers that it does not intend to pursue the Contest following the receipt by Freeport of notice of such Contest, Buyers shall have the right to assume control of such Contest and shall be able to settle, compromise and/or concede such Contest in Buyers’ sole discretion.

(b) In the case of a Contest after the Closing Date that relates to a Straddle Tax Period Buyers shall control the conduct of such Contest, but Freeport shall have the right to participate in such Contest at its own expense, and Buyers shall not settle, compromise and/or concede such Contest without the consent of Freeport, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

(c) Buyers and each Seller agree to furnish or cause to be furnished to each other, upon request, as promptly as practicable, such information and assistance relating to the Companies (including access to books and records) as is reasonably necessary for the filing of all Tax Returns (including any report required pursuant to Section 6043A of the Code and all Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder), the making of any election relating to Taxes, the preparation for any Contest, and the prosecution or defense of any claim, suit or proceeding relating to any Tax. Buyers and each Seller shall reasonably cooperate with each other in the conduct of any Contest or other proceeding involving or otherwise relating to the Companies (or their income or assets) with respect to any tax and each shall execute and deliver such powers of attorney and other documents as are necessary to carry out the intent of this Section 7.05(c). Any information obtained under this Section 7.05(d) shall be kept confidential, except as may be otherwise necessary in connection with the filing of Tax Returns or in the conduct of a Contest or other Tax proceeding.

(d) Buyers and each Seller shall (i) retain all books and records with respect to Taxes pertaining to the Companies for a period of at least six years following the Closing Date and abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Taxing Authority for all periods required by such Taxing Authority; and (ii) provide the other party with at least 30 days’ prior written notice before destroying any such books and records, during which period the party receiving the notice can elect to take possession, at its own expense, of such books and records.

ARTICLE 8
EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

Section 8.01. Continuing Employees. (a) Prior to the Closing, the Buyers shall, or shall cause a Company to, make an offer of employment to each Specified Service Provider on terms consistent with those provided under this Section 8.01. In addition, as of the Closing Date, Buyers shall cause the Companies to continue the employment of all Company Employees provided that it is understood that the foregoing statement does not constitute a guarantee of continued employment. As of the Closing, or such other later date as set forth in the Transition Services Agreement, the Company Employees who are employed by the Companies and the Specified Service Providers who have accepted employment with a Company (the “Continuing Employees”) shall cease to be covered by the employee benefit plans of Freeport and its Affiliates (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include the Companies from and after the Closing) and instead shall be covered by the employee benefit plans of a Buyer or its Affiliates, including, commencing on the Closing Date, the Companies, as applicable. In addition to any obligation either Buyer or its Affiliates may have under Applicable Law, for the period

beginning on the Closing Date and continuing through the first anniversary of the Closing Date, Buyers shall, or shall cause the Companies to, provide the Continuing Employees, to the extent that the Continuing Employees remain so employed, with (i) fixed cash compensation that is no less favorable than the compensation of each such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date, (ii) incentive compensation opportunities comparable to those provided to each such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date and (iii) benefits (including severance) substantially comparable in the aggregate to the benefits (including severance) provided by the Companies to each such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date.

(b) Prior to the Closing, each Company shall assume all liabilities related to Company Employees and Specified Service Providers set forth opposite such Company’s name in Section 8.01(b) of the Companies Disclosure Schedule.

Section 8.02. Buyer Plans. In addition to any obligation either Buyer or its Affiliates may have under Applicable Law:

(a) With respect to any employee benefit plan maintained by either Buyer or its Affiliates in which any Continuing Employee becomes a participant, for purposes of determining eligibility to participate, vesting and benefit accrual (other than benefit accrual under a defined benefit pension plan of such Buyer or its Affiliates), each Continuing Employee’s service with Freeport, the Companies and any of their respective Affiliates (as well as service with any predecessor employer, to the extent service with the predecessor employer is so recognized) shall be treated as service with such Buyer and its Affiliates; provided, however, that such service need not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in any duplication of benefits.

(b) Each Buyer shall waive, or shall cause its Affiliates to waive, unless legally unable to do so, any preexisting conditions, limitations, exclusions, actively-at-work requirements and waiting periods under any welfare benefit plan maintained by such Buyer or any of its Affiliates in which Continuing Employees (and their eligible dependents) will be eligible to participate from and after the Closing Date.

(a) Effective at and after the Closing, each Seller hereby, severally and not jointly, indemnifies Buyers and their Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Companies) against and agrees to hold each of them harmless from (x) any and all damage, loss and expense (including reasonable expenses of investigation and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses in connection with any action,

suit or proceeding) (“Damages”) actually suffered by Buyers or any of their Affiliates arising out of the failure of any representation or warranty made by such Seller in this Agreement to be true and correct on and as of the date hereof or, in the case of the Closing Date Representations only, the Closing Date (or with respect to any representation or warranty that is made as of a specific date, the failure of such representation or warranty to be true and correct as of such date) (each such failure, a “Seller Warranty Breach”) or breach of covenant or agreement made or to be performed by such Seller pursuant to this Agreement, other than any Damages arising out of any Specified Matter (as defined in Schedule 10.02), and (y) Specified Matter Indemnifiable Costs (as defined in Schedule 10.02); provided that with respect to indemnification by any Seller for Seller Warranty Breaches pursuant to clause (x) of this Section 10.02(a) (other than Seller Warranty Breaches in respect of the Seller Fundamental Representations), (i) no Seller shall be liable with respect to any individual claim unless the Damages with respect to the underlying Seller Warranty Breach (or series of related Seller Warranty Breaches) exceeds US$200,000, (ii) no Seller shall be liable unless the aggregate amount of Damages with respect to all Seller Warranty Breaches, disregarding any Damages for which no Seller is liable pursuant to clause (i), exceeds (A) if the SMMA Participant does not exercise the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Tag-Along Right and does not exercise the SMMA Ojos Tag-Along Right, US$18,000,000 or (B) if the SMMA Participant exercises the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Tag-Along Right and the SMMA Ojos Tag-Along Right, US$22,500,000, and then only to the extent of such excess and (iii) Sellers’ maximum liability for all such Seller Warranty Breaches shall not exceed (A) if the SMMA Participant does not exercise the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Tag-Along Right and does not exercise the SMMA Ojos Tag-Along Right, US$270,000,000 or (B) if the SMMA Participant exercises the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Tag-Along Right and the SMMA Ojos Tag-Along Right, US$337,500,000; provided, further, that each Seller’s maximum liability for all such Seller Warranty Breaches (including in respect of the Seller Fundamental Representations) and for all Specified Matter Indemnifiable Costs, shall not exceed such Seller’s Allocable Share of the Base Purchase Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the sole remedy for any Seller Warranty Breach of Section 3.12 or any breach of Section 2.03 or Section 5.02 shall be as set forth in Section 2.03, and neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates shall be entitled to indemnification therefor and (ii) neither Seller shall have any indemnification obligation with respect to any Seller Warranty Breach of any representation or warranty in respect of, or any breach of any covenant or agreement of, the other Seller or such other Seller’s Subsidiary Sellers, and each Seller’s indemnification liability with respect to any Seller Warranty Breach of any representation or warranty in respect of the Companies and with respect to any Specified Matter Indemnifiable Costs shall be limited to such Seller’s Allocable Share of the Damages or Specified Matter Indemnifiable Costs for which indemnification is owed in accordance with this Article 10.

(b) Effective at and after the Closing, Buyers hereby indemnify Sellers, the Subsidiary Sellers and their respective Affiliates against and agrees to hold each of them harmless from any and all Damages actually suffered by any Seller, the Subsidiary Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates arising out of the failure of any representation or warranty made by Buyers in this Agreement to be true and correct on and as of the

Section 10.03. Third Party Claim Procedures. (a) The party seeking indemnification under Section 10.02 (the “Indemnified Party”) agrees to give prompt notice in writing to the party against whom indemnity is to be sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the assertion of any claim or the commencement of any suit, action or proceeding by any third party (a “Third Party Claim”) in respect of which indemnity may be sought under such Section. Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail such Third Party Claim and the basis for indemnification (taking into account the information then available to the Indemnified Party). The failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent such failure shall have actually prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim and, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section, shall be entitled to control and appoint lead counsel for such defense, in each case at its own expense (it being understood that Freeport shall be entitled to control the defense of any Third Party Claims with respect to which indemnification is sought from all Sellers). Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, Buyers and their Affiliates shall control and appoint lead counsel for the defense of any Specified Matter subject to Section 10.06 below.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party shall assume the control of the defense of any Third Party Claim in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.03, (i) the Indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which

shall not be unreasonably withheld) before entering into any settlement of such Third Party Claim, if the settlement does not fully and unconditionally release the Indemnified Party and its Affiliates from all liabilities and obligations with respect to such Third Party Claim or the settlement imposes injunctive or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates and (ii) the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim and to employ separate counsel of its choice for such purpose. The fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be paid by the Indemnified Party.

(d) Each party shall cooperate, and cause their respective Affiliates to cooperate, in the defense or prosecution of any Third Party Claim and shall furnish or cause to be furnished such records, information and testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials or appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith.

Section 10.04. Direct Claim Procedures. In the event an Indemnified Party has a claim for indemnity under Section 10.02 against an Indemnifying Party that does not involve a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party agrees to give prompt notice in writing of such claim to the Indemnifying Party. Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail such claim and the basis for indemnification (taking into account the information then available to the Indemnified Party). The failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent such failure shall have actually prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.

Section 10.05. Calculation of Damages. (a) The amount of any Damages payable under Section 10.02 by the Indemnifying Party shall be net of any (i) amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party under applicable insurance policies or from any other Person alleged to be responsible therefor, and (ii) Tax benefit actually realized by the Indemnified Party arising from the incurrence or payment of any such Damages. Each Indemnified Party shall use reasonable best efforts to collect any amounts available under insurance coverage, or from any other Person alleged to be responsible, for any Damages payable under Section 10.02. If the Indemnified Party receives any amounts under applicable insurance policies, or from any other Person alleged to be responsible for any Damages, subsequent to an indemnification payment by the Indemnifying Party, then such Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party for any payment made or expense incurred by such Indemnifying Party in connection with providing such indemnification payment up to the amount received by the Indemnified Party, net of any expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in collecting such amount, and without interest.

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable under Section 10.02 for (i) any Damages reflected as a liability in the relevant Balance Sheet other than with respect to Specified Matters, (ii) any matter that is the subject of Section 2.03, (iii) any consequential, special, indirect or punitive Damages (except for punitive Damages awarded against an Indemnified Party in a Third Party Claim or consequential, special or indirect damages with respect to Specified Matters), or (iv) Damages for lost profits.

(c) In the case of any Damages suffered or incurred by the Companies (including with respect to Specified Matters), the amounts recoverable by any Indemnified Party in respect of such Damages shall be limited to 80% of the amount of such Damages, unless the SMMA Participant exercises either the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Tag-Along Right or the SMMA Ojos Tag-Along Right.

(d) Each Indemnified Party must use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate in accordance with Applicable Law any loss for which such Indemnified Party seeks indemnification under this Agreement. If such Indemnified Party mitigates its loss after the Indemnifying Party has paid the Indemnified Party under any indemnification provision of this Agreement in respect of that loss, the Indemnified Party must notify the Indemnifying Party and promptly pay to the Indemnifying Party the extent of the value of the benefit to the Indemnified Party of that mitigation (less the Indemnified Party’s reasonable costs of mitigation) and without interest.

Section 10.06. Environmental Procedures. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no Seller shall be liable under this Agreement for, and neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates shall be indemnified for, any Damages relating to Environmental Matters to the extent such Damages: (i) arise out of any sampling, testing or other invasive investigation of the air, soil, soil gas, surface water, groundwater, building materials or other environmental media, or any disclosure, report or communication relating to any Environmental Matter to any Governmental Authority or other third Person, unless such sampling, testing, investigation, disclosure, report or communication is required by Applicable Law or is necessary to respond to any Third Party Claim against any of Buyers or their Affiliates; (ii) result from any material construction, renovation, expansion, demolition, shutdown or closure of any asset, facility or real property following the Closing; or (iii) exceed those Damages that must be incurred to satisfy, in a reasonably cost-effective manner, the minimum requirements of a Governmental Authority pursuant to applicable Environmental Law using where possible risk-based standards, engineering, use or institutional controls or deed or other restrictions.

(b) Other than with respect to any Specified Matter (control of which is addressed in Section 10.03(b)), as between Sellers and any of Buyers or their Affiliates, Freeport shall have the right at its option to control, or cause its Affiliates to control, any Environmental Matter that is subject to indemnification under this Agreement, including the disclosure, investigation, negotiation, performance, remediation, monitoring, settlement and resolution of such matter. With respect to any Environmental Matter (including any Specified Matter) subject to indemnification under this Agreement, (i) the controlling party shall keep the other party reasonably informed and (ii) to the extent Freeport or any of its Affiliates is the controlling party, each Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, cooperate with Freeport and its Affiliates and representatives, provide to Freeport and its Affiliates and representatives reasonable access to properties, facilities, information and documents and reasonably promptly provide to Freeport and its Affiliates and representatives copies of all communications received from or delivered to any other Person. With respect to any Specified Matter, (A) Buyers shall and shall cause their Affiliates to keep Freeport and its Affiliates and representatives reasonably

informed, provide to Freeport and its Affiliates and representatives such other information and documents as they may reasonably request and provide to Freeport and its Affiliates and representatives copies of all communications received from or delivered to any other Person, (B) Freeport shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Specified Matter and to employ, at Freeport’s expense, separate counsel of its choice for such purpose and (C) the Buyers shall obtain prior written consent of Freeport (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) before entering into any settlement of such Specified Matter if the settlement does not fully and unconditionally release Freeport and its Affiliates from all liabilities and obligations with respect to such Specified Matter or the settlement imposes injunctive or other equitable relief against Freeport or its Affiliates.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no Seller shall have any liability for, and neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates shall be indemnified for any Damages relating to or arising out of any Specified Matter, except to the extent Specified Matter Indemnifiable Costs are payable pursuant to clause (y) of Section 10.02(a). For the avoidance of doubt, Specified Matter Indemnifiable Costs shall not include, and no Seller shall have any liability for, (i) any attorneys’ or other legal fees, or expenses of investigation, arising out of or relating to any Specified Matter; or (ii) any expenses, costs or liabilities to the extent relating to factual allegations or claims not alleged in the Original Matter (as defined in Schedule 10.02) or which otherwise relate to conditions first existing after the Closing Date.

Section 10.07. Assignment of Claims. If the Indemnified Party receives any payment from an Indemnifying Party in respect of any Damages or Specified Matter Indemnifiable Costs pursuant to Section 10.02 and the Indemnified Party could have recovered all or a part of such Damages or Specified Matter Indemnifiable Costs from a third party (a “Potential Contributor”) based on the underlying Claim asserted against the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall assign such of its rights to proceed against the Potential Contributor as are necessary to permit the Indemnifying Party to recover from the Potential Contributor the amount of such payment.

Section 10.08. Exclusivity. Except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, effective as of the Closing Date, each Buyer, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, waives any rights and claims such Buyer or its Affiliates may have against each Seller or its Affiliates, whether in law or in equity, relating to the Company or the Subject Shares or the transactions contemplated hereby, including with respect to any Specified Matter. The rights and claims waived by Buyers include claims for contribution or other rights of recovery arising out of or relating to any Environmental Law (whether now or hereinafter in effect), claims for breach of contract, breach of representation or warranty, negligent misrepresentation and all other claims for breach of duty. After the Closing, Section 10.02 will provide the exclusive remedy for any misrepresentation, breach of warranty, covenant or other agreement or other claim arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 10.09. Adjustment to the Purchase Price. Unless such treatment is contrary to Applicable Law, any amount paid by Sellers or Buyers under this Article 10, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, will be treated as an adjustment

to the Purchase Price, with the applicable withholding to be made with respect to any such payments in accordance with Applicable Law. It is the intention of the parties to treat any amount paid by Sellers or Buyers under this Article 10 as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for all federal, state, local and foreign Tax purposes, and the parties agree to file their Tax Returns accordingly, except as otherwise required by a change in Applicable Law or a final determination.

Upon such a determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 12.12. Disclosure Schedules. Freeport has set forth information on the Companies Disclosure Schedule in a section thereof that corresponds to the section of this Agreement to which it relates. A matter set forth in one section of the Companies Disclosure Schedules need not be set forth in any other section so long as its relevance to such other section of the Companies Disclosure Schedule or section of the Agreement is reasonably apparent on the face of the information disclosed therein to the Person to which such disclosure is being made. The parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the Companies Disclosure Schedule to this Agreement may include certain items and information solely for informational purposes for the convenience of Buyers and (ii) the disclosure of any matter in the Companies Disclosure Schedule shall not be deemed to constitute an acknowledgment by any Seller that the matter is required to be disclosed by the terms of this Agreement or that the matter is material.

Section 12.13. Specific Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or any New York State court sitting in New York City, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

AMENDMENT No. 1 (this “Amendment”) dated as of October 29, 2014 to the Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of October 6, 2014 (the “Purchase Agreement”) among LMC ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ SpA, a Chilean corporation and LMC Ojos del Salado SpA, a Chilean corporation (each, a “Buyer” and collectively, “Buyers”) and Freeport Minerals Corporation (formerly known as Freeport-McMoRan Corporation), a Delaware corporation (“Freeport”) by and among the parties hereto.

WHEREAS, the Buyers and Freeport desire to amend the Purchase Agreement as provided herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

SECTION 1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

SECTION 2. Amendments. The Purchase Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

(a)The following definition of “Azul” is hereby added to Section 1.01 of the Purchase Agreement after the definition of “Aurex” and before the definition of “Balance Sheets”:

“Azul” means Azul SpA, a Chilean corporation.

(b) The definition of “Transaction Agreements” in Section 1.01 of the Purchase Agreement is hereby amended by replacing the reference to “Section 2.02(c)” to “Section 2.02(d)”.

(c) The definition of “Transition Services Agreement” in Section 1.01 of the Purchase Agreement is hereby amended by replacing the reference to “▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mining Chile SpA” with a reference to “Azul”.

(d) Section 2.02(d) of the Purchase Agreement is hereby amended by replacing the words “a Buyer or its Affiliate” with the word “Azul”.

(e) Sections 2.02(g) and 5.03(a)(i) of the Purchase Agreement are hereby amended by replacing each reference to “▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mining Chile SpA” with a reference to “Azul”.

(f) Section 2.02 of the Purchase Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following language as paragraph (m):

(m) An Affiliate of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Minera Freeport McMoRan South America Limitada shall enter into a stock purchase agreement, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit D.

(g) Section 8.01(a) of the Purchase Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as set forth below:

“(a) Prior to the Closing, Seller shall, or shall cause one of its Affiliates to, transfer to Azul the employment of each Specified Service Provider who is listed in Item 16 of Section 1.01 of the Companies Disclosure Schedule and is employed by Seller or one of its Affiliates as of immediately prior to Closing. As soon as practicable after Closing on a date or dates to be mutually agreed between Freeport and Buyer, but in no event later than December 31, 2014, (1) Seller shall, or shall cause one of its Affiliates to, terminate each Specified Service Provider (other than those that have been transferred to Azul prior to Closing or those that have resigned) and (2) the Buyers shall, or shall cause a Company to, make an offer of employment to each Specified Service Provider (other than those that have been transferred to Azul prior to Closing) on terms consistent with those provided under this Section 8.01. In addition, as of the Closing Date, the Buyers shall cause the Companies to continue the employment of all Company Employees provided that it is understood that the foregoing statement does not constitute a guarantee of continued employment. As of the Closing, or such other later date as set forth in the Transition Services Agreement, the Company Employees who are employed by the Companies, the Specified Service Providers who are employed by Azul, and the Specified Service Providers who have accepted employment with a Company, Azul or an Affiliate of the Buyer (the “Continuing Employees”) shall cease to be covered by the employee benefit plans of Freeport and its Affiliates (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include the Companies or Azul from and after the Closing) and instead shall be covered by the employee benefit plans of a Buyer or its Affiliates, including, commencing on the Closing Date, the Companies and Azul, as applicable. In addition to any obligation either Buyer or its Affiliates may have under Applicable Law, for the period beginning on the Closing Date and continuing through the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the Buyers shall, or shall cause the Companies, Azul or Affiliates of the Buyer to, provide the Continuing Employees, to the extent that the Continuing Employees remain so employed, with (i) fixed cash compensation that is no less favorable than the compensation of each such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date, (ii) incentive compensation opportunities comparable to those provided to each such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date and (iii) benefits (including severance) substantially comparable in the aggregate to the benefits (including severance) provided by the Companies to each such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date.”

(h) Schedule 2.01 to the Purchase Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as set forth in Annex 1 to this Amendment.

(i) Exhibit A to the Purchase Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as set forth in Annex 2 to this Amendment.
