The issuance of Equinox Gold common shares to Mr. Beaty pursuant to the financing constitutes a &ldquo;related party transaction&rdquo; under MI 61-101 (the &ldquo;<B>Related Party Transaction</B>&rdquo;) because it involves the issuance by Equinox Gold of securities to a related party. Equinox Gold is relying on the fair market value not more than 25% of market capitalization exemption set out in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(a) of MI 61-101 to be exempted from the MI 61-101 requirement for a formal valuation and minority shareholder approval with respect to the issuance of Equinox Gold common shares to Mr. Beaty pursuant to the Related Party Transaction. The fair market value of the Related Party Transaction does not exceed 25% of the market capitalization of Equinox Gold, calculated in accordance with MI 61-101. Mr. Beaty currently holds approximately 7.9% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Equinox Gold and following completion of the financing, which terms for pricing and number of shares to be issued are yet to be determined subject to approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange, it is anticipated he will hold less than 10%.

Shares in any Piggyback Prospectus pursuant to this Section 4.1(a)(ii) shall be conditioned upon participation in such Underwritten
Offering and the inclusion of its Registrable Shares in the Underwritten Offering to the extent provided herein. Equinox Gold,
if distributing its Registrable Shares through such Underwritten Offering, shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary
form with the managing underwriters selected for such Underwritten Offering and complete and execute any questionnaires, personal
information forms, powers of attorney, submissions to jurisdiction, certificates, undertakings, declarations, notices, indemnities,
securities escrow agreements, and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting (including, without
limitation, any documents required under the applicable Canadian Securities Laws), and furnish to the Corporation such information
in writing as the Corporation may reasonably request for inclusion in the Prospectus. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, with respect to an Underwritten Offering pursuant to a Piggyback Prospectus, if the managing underwriters determine
in good faith that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be included in such Underwritten Offering,
then the managing underwriters may exclude shares (including Registrable Shares) from the Underwritten Offering, and any shares
included in the Underwritten Offering shall be allocated first, to the Corporation, and second, to Equinox Gold, and third, to
any other person included in such Underwritten Offering. If Equinox Gold disapproves of the terms of any Underwritten Offering
pursuant to a Piggyback Prospectus, Equinox Gold may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Corporation and the underwriter,
delivered at any time prior to execution of a definitive underwriting agreement in connection with an Underwritten Offering pursuant
to a Piggyback Prospectus.</P>

giving of the Indemnity Notice, given notice to Equinox Gold or Premier, as applicable, that it wishes to dispute such Indemnity
Claim then Equinox Gold or Premier may assume the defence of such Indemnity Claim. If SpinCo does give such a notice, it shall
have the right to assume the defence of such Indemnity Claim and to defend such Indemnity Claim in the name of Equinox Gold or
Premier, as applicable. Each of Equinox Gold and Premier shall provide to SpinCo all files, books, records and other information

cooperate in all reasonable respects in the defence of such Indemnity Claim. If SpinCo fails after the giving of such notice, diligently
and reasonably to defend such Indemnity Claim throughout the period that such Indemnity Claim exists, its right to defend the Indemnity
Claim shall terminate and Equinox Gold or Premier may assume the defence of such Indemnity Claim. Equinox Gold or Premier, as applicable,
shall not settle or compromise any such Indemnity Claim without the prior written consent of SpinCo, such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed.</FONT></TD></TR></TABLE>
