(a)                                 The Seller shall cause the Owners to operate the Project on a commercial basis as though they have the full economic interest in the copper, gold and silver produced from the Properties and the Other Properties in the absence of this Agreement and as if they were entitled to receive the Gold Market Price and the Silver Market Price for all gold and silver produced. The Seller shall cause the Owners to ensure that (i) all cut off grade, short term mine planning and production decisions concerning the Project shall be based on gold, silver and copper prices typical of normal industry practice and consistent with the prices used in the other operations of the Lundin Group Entities, and (ii) all longer term planning and resource and reserve calculations concerning the Project shall use gold, silver and copper prices based on normal industry practice and consistent with the prices used in the other operations of the Lundin Group Entities.

(c)                                  Notwithstanding Section 6.1(b), the Seller shall cause the Owners to perform all mining operations and activities pertaining to or in respect of the Project in accordance, in all material respects, with all Applicable Laws, Permits and other authorizations, and accepted mining, processing, engineering and environmental practices prevailing in the mining industry in Chile, and having regard to the principles of the World Gold Council Conflict Free Gold Standard.

 

6.2                               Preservation of Corporate Existence

 

(a)                                 Except as permitted in Section 6.2(b), the Seller shall cause each of the PSA Entities at all times from and after the date hereof to do and cause to be done all things necessary or advisable to maintain its corporate existence. The Seller shall not permit any PSA Entity to merge or amalgamate with another PSA Entity if it would adversely impact in any material respect the Purchaser’s rights under this Agreement, the Guarantee or any Security Pledge Agreements.

 

(b)                                 The Seller will not permit any of the PSA Entities to consolidate, amalgamate with, or merge with or into, or Transfer all or substantially all of its assets to, or reorganize, reincorporate or reconstitute into or as, another entity, or continue to any other jurisdiction, unless such action is in compliance with Sections 7.2, 7.3 and 7.4 and at the time of such consolidation, amalgamation, merger, reorganization, reincorporation, reconstitution, Transfer, or continuance, the resulting, surviving or transferee entity assumes in favour of the Purchaser all the obligations of such PSA Entity under this Agreement, the Guarantee and the Security Pledge Agreements, as applicable.

 

6.3                               Processing/Commingling

 

The Seller shall not process, and shall cause each of the other PSA Entities not to process, Other Minerals through the processing facilities related to the Project in priority to or in place of, or commingle Other Minerals with, Minerals which are or can be mined, produced, extracted or otherwise recovered from the Properties or the Other Properties while the Project can be operated profitably, unless the PSA Entities and the Purchaser have entered into an agreement that provides for the following: (i) the applicable Lundin Group Entity has adopted and employs reasonable practices and procedures for weighing, determining moisture content, sampling and assaying and determining recovery factors (a “Commingling Plan”), such Commingling Plan to ensure the division of Other Minerals and Minerals for the purposes of determining the quantum of the Produced Gold and the Produced Silver; (ii) the Purchaser shall not be disadvantaged as a result of the processing of Other Minerals in place of, in priority to, or concurrently with,

 

38

The Seller shall compensate the Purchaser for any disadvantage incurred or suffered by the Purchaser if and to the extent that the processing of Minerals mined, produced, extracted or otherwise recovered from the Properties or the Other Properties through the processing facilities related to the Project is delayed solely as a result of such Other Minerals being processed through processing facilities related to the Project.

 

6.4                               Offtake Agreements

 

(a)                                 The Seller shall ensure that, when Minerals that contain Produced Gold or Produced Silver are sold, all such Minerals are sold to an Offtaker pursuant to an Offtake Agreement.

 

(b)                                 During the Term, the Seller shall ensure that all Offtake Agreements entered into by a Lundin Group Entity shall be on commercially reasonable arm’s length terms and conditions for concentrates similar in make-up and quality to those derived from the Minerals, and shall include industry standard reporting and payment settlement protocols and provisions that require the delivery of Offtaker Settlement Sheets and appropriate and separate sampling and assaying so that the Seller and the applicable Offtaker can determine the grade or content of Produced Gold, Produced Silver and other metals in each delivery to an Offtaker. In the case of an Offtake Agreement entered into by a Lundin Group Entity with an Affiliate or other non-arm’s length party, in addition, the Offtake Agreement shall be on terms consistent with market practice. For greater certainty, any variances in an Offtake Agreement from the percentages used to determine Payable Gold and Payable Silver under this Agreement shall be for the sole account of the PSA Entities and shall not affect the amount of Refined Gold and Refined Silver to be sold and delivered to the Purchaser under this Agreement.

 

(c)                                  The Seller shall ensure that the Lundin Group Entities deliver all Minerals that include Produced Gold and Produced Silver to each Offtaker, in such quantity, description and amounts and at such times and places as required under and in accordance with each Offtake Agreement. The Seller shall notify the Purchaser by electronic communication of each delivery of Minerals to an Offtaker no later than five Business Days (i) after the Minerals leave the Properties or the Other Properties or when the Minerals are loaded at a port facility, and (ii) after such is available to the Seller, information regarding the Mineral content in the shipment.

 

(d)                                 With respect to any Offtake Agreements in effect as of the Closing Date, the Seller shall provide a copy of such Offtake Agreements to the Purchaser subject to any redactions required by the terms of any such Offtake Agreements.

39



 

requirement for the redaction of any part thereof, failing which, such Offtake Agreement shall be provided subject to the redactions required by any such Offtake Agreements.

 

(e)                                  The Seller shall cause the Lundin Group Entities to take all commercially reasonable steps to enforce their respective rights and remedies under each Offtake Agreement with respect to any breaches of the terms thereof relating to the timing and amount of Offtaker Settlements in respect of Produced Gold or Produced Silver to be made thereunder. The Seller shall notify the Purchaser in writing when any dispute in respect of a material matter arising out of or in connection with any Offtake Agreement is commenced in respect of Produced Gold or Produced Silver and shall provide the Purchaser with timely updates of the status of any such dispute and the final decision and award of the court or arbitration panel with respect to such dispute, as the case may be.

 

6.5                               Insurance

 

(a)                                 The Seller shall cause the PSA Entities to maintain at all times with reputable insurance companies insurance in good standing with respect to the Project Assets and the operations conducted on and in respect of the Project against such casualties, losses and contingencies and of such types and in such amounts as is customary in the mining industry in Chile.

 

(b)                                 Prior to the Deposit Reduction Date, where any Lundin Group Entity has received payment under an insurance policy in respect of the Project as a result of an event that does or is reasonably likely to materially reduce the amount of Produced Gold and Produced Silver from the Project in any one or more years, the Seller shall cause such Lundin Group Entity either (i) to use all Net Proceeds of any insurance payment received by any Lundin Group Entity to rebuild or repair the Project or the damaged Project Assets, or (ii) to pay the Applicable Percentage of the Net Proceeds of any insurance payment received by any Lundin Group Entity in respect thereof to the Purchaser within 10 days after receipt of such proceeds by such Lundin Group Entity. In this Section 6.5(b), “Applicable Percentage” means the Purchaser’s share of the Net Proceeds of such insurance payment received by any Lundin Group Entity, the Purchaser’s share being calculated as [Calculation methodology redacted — Commercially sensitive information]. A failure to agree on the foregoing proportion is arbitrable under Section 14.1.

 

(c)                                  The Seller shall ensure that each Lot shipped is adequately insured in such amounts and with such coverage as is customary in the mining industry in Chile, until the time that risk of loss and damage for such Minerals is transferred to the Offtaker.

 

(d)                                 Where any Lundin Group Entity has received payment under an insurance policy in respect of a shipment of a Lot that is lost or damaged after leaving the Project and before the risk of loss or damage is transferred to the Offtaker, the Seller shall use the Applicable Percentage of the Net Proceeds of any insurance payment

 

40



 

received by the Lundin Group Entity in respect thereof to acquire Refined Gold and Refined Silver in accordance with Section 2.1(c) and shall sell and deliver to the Purchaser (without duplication to the extent previously sold and delivered to the Purchaser by the Seller) such amount of Refined Gold or Refined Silver at the applicable Gold Purchase Price or Silver Purchase Price, as applicable. In this Section 6.5(d), “Applicable Percentage” means an amount equal to the average percentage content of Produced Gold and Produced Silver in the portion of such Lot that was lost or damaged based on: (i) in the case of loss or damage of a partial shipment, the dry weight determined by weighing, sampling and moisture determination on loading of the copper concentrates and the agreed assays for gold and silver on the part of the copper concentrates which have been delivered; and (ii) in the case of loss or damage of a complete shipment, on the dry weight determined at loading and the mine’s provisional assays; in each case based on the respective market prices of the metals contained in such Lot as determined by the insurance settlement documents.

(ii)                                  subject to Sections 6.6(c) and 14.7, where that disclosure is necessary to comply with Applicable Laws, court order or regulatory request, provided

 

41

(iv)                            where such information is already available to the public other than by a breach of the confidentiality terms of this Agreement or is known by the Receiving Party prior to the entry into of this Agreement or obtained independently of this Agreement and the disclosure of such information would not breach any other confidentiality obligations;

 

(v)                               with the consent of the disclosing Party; and

 

(vi)                            to its Affiliates and those of its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees, advisors and representatives who need to have knowledge of the Confidential Information.

 

(b)                                 Each Party shall ensure that its Affiliates and its and its Affiliates’ employees, directors, officers, advisors and representatives and those persons listed in Section 6.6(a)(i) are made aware of this Section 6.6 and comply with the provisions of this Section 6.6. Each Party shall be liable to the other Party for any improper use or disclosure of such terms or information by such persons.

(a)                                 If any act of expropriation, including eminent domain, nationalization, confiscation, deprivation and/or similar acts, occurs, the Seller’s delivery obligations under Section 2.2 shall be suspended or reduced to the extent that such expropriation results in the loss of control of the Lundin Group Entity that receives an Offtaker Settlement and such settlement or value thereof cannot be paid to another Lundin Group Entity that LMC controls. For greater certainty, the Seller’s delivery obligations under Section 2.2 shall resume automatically to the extent that control of such Lundin Group Entity is re-established or such settlement or value can be paid to another Lundin Group Entity that LMC controls and any previously reduced or suspended deliveries shall be made to the extent that the Lundin Group Entity over which control is re-established has received or realized the economic benefit of Offtaker Settlements that occurred during the period prior to the re-establishment of control.

 

(b)                                 If any act of expropriation, including eminent domain, nationalization, confiscation, deprivation and/or similar acts, occurs, and materially adversely affects the Project (including the operation and development thereof), the rights of the PSA Entities with respect to the Minerals, LMC or the PSA Entities themselves (or the ownership thereof) or their ability to comply with the terms of this Agreement, the Seller and LMC shall, and shall cause the other PSA Entities, as applicable, to, use all commercially reasonable efforts to repudiate, void, stay or overturn such expropriation and, if unsuccessful, to obtain compensation for such expropriation, including under any applicable business investment treaty or foreign investment contract. Without limiting any other provisions hereof, the Seller shall pay to the Purchaser the Applicable Percentage of the Net Proceeds within 10 days after receipt of such compensation by any Lundin Group Entity.

ARTICLE 7
TRANSFERS OF INTERESTS

 

7.1                               Prohibition on Sale of Mineral Interests

 

(a)                                 Notwithstanding Section 7.1(b), the Seller shall not, and shall not permit any Lundin Group Entity to, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, Transfer a Mineral Interest relating to gold or silver in any case where (i) the Designated Percentage of Payable Gold or Designated Percentage of Payable Silver is 68% or (ii) thereafter, where such Transfer would result in the Lundin Group Entities retaining less than a 15% full economic interest in the Payable Gold and Payable Silver attributable to their interest in the Owners.

 

(b)                                 If, at any time and from time to time a Lundin Group Entity wishes to offer for sale to any third party (other than a Lundin Group Entity) any royalty, stream, participation or production interest or enter into any agreements that are similar to a royalty, stream, participation or production interest agreement, in each case in respect of any Minerals (collectively, a “Mineral Interest”) or, following an offer by a third party to purchase a Mineral Interest, the Seller shall, by notice in writing to the Purchaser, first offer to sell, or the Seller shall ensure that the applicable Lundin Group Entity first offers to sell, such Mineral Interest to the Purchaser at the price and upon substantially the terms that the applicable Lundin Group Entity proposes to offer to or to accept from a third party (the “Seller Offer”). The Seller Offer must contain all of the material terms and conditions related to the sale of the Mineral Interest.

 

(c)                                  Upon receipt of a Seller Offer, the Purchaser shall have a period of up to 45 days (the “Review Period”) in which to indicate whether it wishes to accept the Seller Offer. During the Review Period, the Seller (or the applicable Lundin Group Entity) shall deal exclusively with the Purchaser with respect to the Seller Offer and any other potential disposition of the Mineral Interest. If prior to the end of the Review Period the Purchaser indicates that it intends to accept the Seller Offer, the Seller (or the applicable Lundin Group Entity) and the Purchaser shall have a further 45 days to negotiate in good faith and enter into the definitive agreement for the purchase and sale of the Mineral Interest consistent with the terms and conditions of the Seller Offer (the “Definitive Agreement”). During such second 45 day period, the obligation to deal exclusively with the Purchaser shall continue. During the Review Period and any subsequent negotiation period, the Seller shall provide to the Purchaser all information and materials that the Purchaser may reasonably require to consider the Seller Offer.

 

(d)                                 Following the entering into of the Definitive Agreement, the Seller (or the applicable Lundin Group Entity) and the Purchaser will proceed to close the transaction as soon as possible thereafter pursuant to the terms of such Definitive

 

45



 

Agreement. Where the Seller Offer includes consideration other than cash, at the Purchaser’s request, the terms of the Definitive Agreement will permit the Purchaser to pay an amount in cash equivalent to the value of such non-cash consideration in the Seller Offer.

 

(e)                                  If (i) the Purchaser advises the Seller that it is not willing to accept the Seller Offer, (ii) by the end of the Review Period, the Purchaser has not indicated its willingness to accept the Seller Offer, or (iii) during the 45 day period after the end of the Review Period the Seller (or the applicable Lundin Group Entity) and the Purchaser were not able to enter into a Definitive Agreement, then the Seller or the applicable Lundin Group Entity may commence negotiations with a third party for the sale of the Mineral Interest which is the subject of the Seller Offer, and, either directly or through an Affiliate, sell the Mineral Interest that is the subject of the Seller Offer to a third party; provided that the terms of sale are no more favourable to such third party than those offered to the Purchaser in the Seller Offer and such sale must be completed within 90 days thereafter. If the sale has not been completed within that 90 day period, the provisions of Section 7.1(b) to (e) will again apply to the sale of any Mineral Interest.

 

(f)                                   For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 7.1 shall not apply to (i) any Minerals spot sales, (ii) any Offtake Agreement, (iii) intercompany transfers among Lundin Group Entities, or (iv) any pre-payment by an Offtaker.

 

7.2                               Owner of Project Assets

 

Subject to ownership interests of Sumitomo in the Owners as of the date hereof, and except as provided in Sections 7.4 and 8.2, LMC and the Seller shall ensure that LMC, LMAB and LMAB’s subsidiaries shall be the only direct and indirect legal and beneficial owners of the Project and the Project Assets, and LMC and the Seller shall ensure that no person other than LMC, LMAB and LMAB’s subsidiaries holds or acquires any direct or indirect ownership interest, right or title in or to the Project or the Project Assets. Sections 7.2 and 7.3 shall (subject to the paragraph following Section 7.4(e)) not restrict any Transfer of Project Assets in the ordinary course of business and that would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

7.3                               Prohibited Transfers and Changes of Control

 

Except as set out in Section 7.4, the Seller shall not permit, and shall ensure that any subsidiary of LMC to which the Project Assets have been Transferred in accordance with Section 7.4(c) does not permit:

 

(a)                                 a Transfer, in whole or in part, of the Project Assets (other than (subject to the paragraph following Section 7.4(e)) any Transfer of Project Assets in the ordinary course of business and that would not have a Material Adverse Effect) or any right, title or interest therein; or

 

(b)                                 a Change of Control, or the entry into any agreement, arrangement or other transaction with any person that would result in a Change of Control, of LMC, the Seller, any other PSA Entity or any other entity controlled by LMC which has a

For greater certainty, Section 7.4(b) will not apply to, and nothing in this Agreement shall restrict in any way, a Change of Control of LMC where a majority of LMC’s voting securities are listed on a public securities exchange immediately prior to the completion of such Change of Control.

 

Inter-corporate Transfer

 

(c)                                  in the case of a direct or indirect Transfer of the Project Assets (including by way of the Transfer (including by way of issuance) of any or all of the Shares of a PSA Entity) to LMC or a subsidiary of LMC:

(v)                               all filings have been made and all other actions have been taken that are required in order for the Purchaser to continue at all times following such

(x)                                if such other person has outstanding any Indebtedness secured by the same assets as the assets securing this Agreement or the Guarantee, its secured lenders shall have entered into an intercreditor agreement with the Purchaser on terms not less favourable to the Purchaser than those in the Intercreditor Agreement.

 

With Consent

 

(e)                                  the Purchaser provides its prior written consent;

 

provided that, for greater certainty, if any of the PSA Entities intend to abandon, surrender, relinquish or let lapse any of the Properties or the Other Properties, including by way of ceasing to maintain Permits or the validity of mineral claims, leases or exploration licenses (the “Abandonment Property”), the Seller shall (i) have determined, acting in a commercially reasonable manner, that it is not economical to mine Minerals from the Abandonment Property, and (ii) first give notice of such intention to the Purchaser at least 30 days in advance of the proposed date of abandonment. If, not later than 10 days before the proposed date of abandonment, the Seller receives from the Purchaser written notice that the Purchaser desires the Owners to convey or cause the conveyance of the Abandonment Property to the Purchaser or an assignee, the Seller shall, without additional consideration, convey or cause the conveyance of the Abandonment Property to the Purchaser on an as is where is basis and at the sole cost, risk and expense of the Purchaser and shall thereafter have no further obligation to maintain the title to the Abandonment Property. If the Purchaser does not give such notice to the Seller within the prescribed period of time, the Owners may abandon the Abandonment Property and shall

 

52



 

thereafter have no further obligation to maintain the title to the Abandonment Property; provided, however, that if the Owners or any Lundin Group Entity reacquires a direct or indirect interest in any of the ground covered by the Abandonment Property at any time within seven (7) years following abandonment, the production of gold and silver from such property shall be subject to this Agreement. The Seller shall give written notice to the Purchaser within ten (10) days of any such reacquisition.

Security Pledge Agreements and, from and after a Lundin Event of Default, or any event or circumstance which, with notice, the passage of time or both, would constitute a Lundin Event of Default, and until such Lundin Event of Default is remedied, subordinates and postpones the payment of all such debt, liabilities and obligations to the payment in full of all debts, liabilities and obligations of the PSA Entities to the Purchaser.

The Seller shall pay all costs and expenses associated with all the foregoing including in connection with the preparation and registration of documentation in connection therewith that is required by the Purchaser.

 

(e)                                  The Seller shall cause all such further agreements, instruments and documents to be executed and delivered and all such further acts and things to be done as the Purchaser may from time to time reasonably require to obtain, perfect and maintain first ranking prior perfected charges and security interests in, to and over all of the Collateral, subject only to the rights of the Lenders under the Acquisition Financing or a Refinancing Facility.

 

(f)                                   The Seller shall not contest, and shall cause each Lundin Group Entity not to contest, in any manner, the effectiveness, validity, binding nature or enforceability of this Agreement, the Guarantee, the Security Pledge Agreements or any of the PSA Security.

(d)                                 in respect of Indebtedness in a principal amount of (x) $[Amount redacted — Commercially sensitive information] or more in the aggregate in the case of any one or more of the PSA Entities, or (y) $[Amount redacted — Commercially sensitive information] or more in the case of any Lundin Group Entity (other than the PSA Entities), any (i) failure by such person to pay any such Indebtedness at the stated maturity thereof or upon the occurrence of an event as a result of which the holder of such Indebtedness has declared the principal thereof to be due and payable prior to the stated maturity thereof, or any event shall occur and shall continue after the applicable grace period (if any) specified in any agreement or instrument relating to any such Indebtedness of any such person, the effect of which is to permit the holder of such Indebtedness to declare the principal amount thereof to be due and payable prior to its stated maturity and in respect of which such holder has so declared the principal amount to be payable, or (ii) failure by any one or more of the PSA Entities or any Lundin Group Entity (other than the PSA Entities) to perform or observe any covenant or agreement to be performed or observed by it contained in any agreement or instrument evidencing any of such Indebtedness, the effect of which is to permit the holder of such Indebtedness to declare the principal amount thereof to be due and payable prior to its stated maturity and in respect of which the holder has so declared the principal amount to be payable or has sought to enforce a guarantee in respect thereof;

 

(e)                                  upon the occurrence of an Insolvency Event affecting LMC or any PSA Entity;

 

(f)                                   any PSA Security becomes invalid or unenforceable or otherwise ceases to constitute a first ranking Encumbrance over the Collateral (equal in priority to the applicable portion of the security securing the Acquisition Financing or any Refinancing Facility) subject to any Permitted Encumbrances arising by operation of statute, and such default has not been remedied within 20 days of the earlier of

 

62



 

(i) any of the PSA Entities becoming aware of such default, and (ii) receipt of notice from the Purchaser notifying the PSA Entities of such default; or

 

(g)                                  LMC is in breach or default of its obligations under Section 9.2 or any applicable PSA Entity is in breach or default of its obligations under the Guarantee.

 

11.2                        Remedies

(i)                                   demand all amounts and deliveries owing by the Seller to the Purchaser;

 

(ii)                                terminate this Agreement by written notice to the Seller and, without limiting Section 11.2(a)(i), demand all losses suffered or incurred as a result of the occurrence of such Lundin Event of Default and termination, including the greater of (A) the Uncredited Balance, and (B) the Net Present Value of the Remaining Stream, provided that for the purposes of this Section 11.2(a)(ii) only, a [Amount redacted — Commercially sensitive information]% discount rate will be applied; and

 

(iii)                             enforce the PSA Security.

 

(b)                                 The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that (i) the Purchaser will be damaged by a Lundin Event of Default; (ii) it would be impracticable or extremely difficult to fix the actual damages resulting from a Lundin Event of Default; (iii) any sums payable in accordance with Section 11.2(a)(ii) with respect to a Lundin Event of Default are in the nature of liquidated damages, not a penalty, and are fair and reasonable; and (iv) the amount payable in accordance with Section 11.2(a)(ii) with respect to a Lundin Event of Default represents a reasonable estimate of fair compensation for the losses that may reasonably be anticipated from such Lundin Event of Default in full and final satisfaction of all amounts owed in respect of such Lundin Event of Default.

 

(c)                                  For greater certainty, if the Purchaser does not exercise its right under Section 11.2(a)(ii), the obligations of the Seller and LMC or any successors following a realization hereunder shall continue in full force and effect.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article 11, on and after the Deposit Reduction Date, if a Lundin Event of Default under Section 11.1(b) or 11.1(c) has occurred and is continuing and the occurrence and continuance of any such Lundin Event of Default does not result in a Material Adverse Effect, then the Purchaser shall have no right to terminate this Agreement, but it shall be entitled to other remedies available to it under this Agreement or at law or in equity (including injunctive relief and specific performance).

ARTICLE 12
PURCHASER EVENTS OF DEFAULT

 

12.1                        Purchaser Events of Default

 

Each of the following events or circumstances constitutes an event of default by the Purchaser (each, a “Purchaser Event of Default”):

 

(a)                                 the Purchaser fails to pay any portion of the $648,000,000 Deposit on the Closing Date to the Seller in accordance with this Agreement where all of the conditions in Section 3.2 have been satisfied or waived;

 

(b)                                 the Purchaser fails to pay for Refined Gold or Refined Silver delivered to the Purchaser in accordance with Sections 2.4 or 2.5 within 10 days of receipt of notice from the Seller notifying the Purchaser of such default (a “Purchaser Termination Event”);

12.2                        Remedies

 

(a)                                 In addition to the Seller’s rights under Section 13.3 and in addition to and not in substitution for any other remedies available to it hereunder or at law or in equity, if a Purchaser Event of Default described in Section 12.1(a) or Section 12.1(e) (solely with respect to the payment of the amount of the Deposit set forth in Section 12.1(a)) has occurred and is continuing, then the Seller shall have the right, at its option, to terminate this Agreement by written notice to the Purchaser and demand all losses suffered or incurred as a result of the occurrence of such Purchaser Event of Default and termination.

 

(b)                                 In addition to the Seller’s rights and remedies available at law or in equity, if a Purchaser Termination Event occurs and is continuing, the Seller shall have the right, at its option, upon written notice to the Purchaser, to suspend its delivery

If, during a suspension by the Seller pursuant to a Purchaser Termination Event where the Agreement has not otherwise been terminated, the Purchaser then cures the Purchaser Termination Event in full, the Seller’s obligations under this Agreement shall recommence as of the date the Purchaser cures the Purchaser Termination Event in full, and the Seller shall be obliged to make any required deliveries or payments and the Purchaser shall be required to make any corresponding required payments, in each case pursuant to this Agreement in respect of the period during which such suspension was in effect and subsequently cured, subject to any exercise by the Seller of its rights under Section 13.4.

 

(c)                                  If a Purchaser Event of Default under Sections 12.1(c), (d) or (e) (other than with respect to the payment of the amount of the Deposit set forth in Section 12.1(a)) has occurred and is continuing, the Seller shall have no right to terminate this Agreement, but shall be entitled to all other remedies available to it under this Agreement or at law or in equity.

(c)                                  In the event that any new Taxes are implemented, or there shall occur any revision in, implementation of, amendment to or interpretation by the relevant Governmental Authority or courts having competent jurisdiction of any existing Taxes, in each case that has an adverse effect on any of the Parties or any of their Affiliates in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Seller and Purchaser agree that they shall negotiate in good faith with each other to amend this Agreement so that the Parties and their Affiliates are no longer adversely affected by any such enactment, revision, implementation, amendment or interpretation, as the case may be; provided that any amendment to this Agreement shall not have any adverse effect on the Seller or its Affiliates on the one hand or the Purchaser or its Affiliates on the other hand.

 

13.3                        Overdue Payments

 

Any payment or delivery not made by a Party on or by any applicable payment or delivery date referred to in this Agreement shall incur interest from the due date until such payment or delivery is paid or made in full at a per annum rate equal to 10% from and after the due date, calculated, compounded and paid monthly in arrears.

66



 

withheld against any non-payment by a Party shall be valued at the Gold Market Price or Silver Market Price, as applicable, as of the first trading day that such amount of Refined Gold or Refined Silver became payable to such Party and shall result in a reduction in an amount of Refined Gold or Refined Silver otherwise to be delivered by that number of ounces equal to the dollar amount set off divided by the Gold Market Price or Silver Market Price, as applicable, as of the day such dollar amount first became payable.

Except as otherwise provided for in this agreement, all costs and expenses incurred by a Party shall be for its own account.

 

14.15                 Counterparts

Dispute Resolution

 

The following rules and procedures shall apply with respect to any matter to be arbitrated by the Parties under the terms of the Agreement.

 

1.                                      Initiation of Arbitration Proceedings

 

(a)                                 If the Seller or the Purchaser wishes to have any matter under the Agreement arbitrated in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement (the “Claimant”), then the Seller or the Purchaser, as applicable, shall give notice to the Purchaser or the Seller, as applicable (the “Respondent”), specifying particulars of the matter or matters in dispute and proposing the name of the person it wishes to appoint as one of the three arbitrators. Within 20 days after receipt of such notice, the Respondent shall give notice to the Claimant advising of the person it wishes to appoint as the second of the three arbitrators. Those two persons nominated as arbitrators shall, within 20 days of receipt of the Respondent’s notice, appoint a third arbitrator. If such two nominees are unable to agree upon a third arbitrator within such 20-day period or the Respondent fails to notify the Claimant of the person it wishes to appoint as the second arbitrator within the applicable 20-day period, then in either case such arbitrator or arbitrators shall be chosen by ADR Chambers Inc., Toronto, Ontario at the written request of the Claimant or the Respondent.

 

(b)                                 The individuals who serve as arbitrators (the “Arbitrators”) shall be qualified by education and experience to decide the matter in dispute. Each Arbitrator shall be at arm’s length from all Parties and their Affiliates and shall not be a member of the audit or legal firm or firms who advise any Party or a person who is otherwise regularly retained by any Party.

 

2.                                      Submission of Written Statements
