THE LOAN

Section 2.1 The Loan

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Lender hereby agrees to advance a non-revolving single advance term loan to the Borrower (or as the Borrower may direct) in a principal amount not to exceed the Commitment (the "Advance"), by way of a single drawdown in accordance with this Agreement.

Section 2.2 Non-Revolvement

The Loan does not revolve, and any amount repaid or prepaid cannot be reborrowed and reduces the amount outstanding under the Loan by the amount repaid or prepaid, as the case may be.

Section 2.3 Direction

The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Lender to advance the Loan by paying, or causing to be paid, to the relevant Turkish Governmental Authority on behalf of EMX Turkey in accordance with Section 2.4(1) of the Royalty Purchase Agreement, an amount equal to the lesser of:

(a) the Dollar Equivalent of the VAT Amount owing by EMX Turkey set out in the invoice issued by SSR Turkey to EMX Turkey pursuant to Section 2.4(3) of the Royalty Purchase Agreement (which shall be the same amount as is owing pursuant to the invoice issued by the applicable Turkish Governmental Authority to SSR Turkey in respect of the VAT Amount); and

(b) the Commitment,

and this section shall be good and sufficient authority for the Lender to make such Advance.

Section 2.4 Term and Repayment

Except as otherwise provided herein, the outstanding principal amount of the Loan, together with all accrued but unpaid interest, bonus and other costs, fees or charges payable hereunder from time to time, will be immediately due and payable by the Borrower to the Lender on the Maturity Date.

Section 2.5 Use of Proceeds

The proceeds of the Loan will be applied by or on behalf of the Borrower solely for the purpose of paying and discharging the VAT Amount in an amount not to exceed the Commitment.

Interest shall be calculated daily and be payable by the Borrower to the Lender monthly on the Interest Payment Date.

If the Borrower gives written notice to the Lender prior to the 5th Business Day preceding any Interest Payment Date that it will pay interest in cash on such Interest Payment Date (each an "Cash Interest Election Notice"), then all accrued interest due on that Interest Payment Date will be due and payable by the Borrower in cash on such Interest Payment Date. If the Borrower does not give an Cash Interest Election Notice with respect to any interest due on any Interest Payment Date, interest shall be capitalized and added to and form part of the principal amount of the Loan on the Interest Payment Date and shall bear interest at the applicable Interest Rate on and after such date. Each Cash Interest Election Notice shall be irrevocable and given in accordance with this Section and Section 9.1.

Section 11.3 Survival

(a) If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in Dollars into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, the Lender could purchase Dollars with such other currency at the buying spot rate of exchange in the foreign exchange markets on the Business Day immediately preceding that on which any such judgment, or any relevant part thereof, is given.

(b) The obligations of the Credit Parties in respect of any sum due to the Lender hereunder and under the other Facility Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than Dollars, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Lender of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency the Lender may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase Dollars with such other currency. If the amount of Dollars so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Lender in Dollars, each of the Credit Parties agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Lender against such loss. If the amount of Dollars so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to the Lender in Dollars, the Lender shall remit such excess to the relevant Credit Parties.

To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to the Lender, or the Lender exercises its right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada), the Companies Creditors Arrangement Act (Canada) and the Winding- up and Restructuring Act (Canada) or other Canadian federal, provincial or foreign liquidation, conservatorship, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors, moratorium, rearrangement, receivership, insolvency, reorganization, or similar debtor relief laws, or otherwise, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such set- off had not occurred.

- 31 -

Section 11.9 Severability

Whenever possible, each provision of the Facility Documents shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under all Applicable Laws. If, however, any provision of any of the Facility Documents shall be prohibited by or invalid under any such Applicable Law in any jurisdiction, it shall, as to such jurisdiction, be deemed modified to conform to the minimum requirements of such Applicable Law, or, if for any reason it is not deemed so modified, it shall be ineffective and invalid only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without affecting the remaining provisions of such Facility Document, or the validity or effectiveness of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

8.6 To Pay Additional Amounts

(a) The Borrower will, from time to time, promptly pay or make provisions satisfactory to the Lender for the payment of any additional amounts, including taxes and charges which may be imposed on the Borrower by the laws of Canada or any Province thereof (except income tax or security transfer tax, if any) which shall be payable with respect to the Facility.

(b) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Credit Parties hereunder or under any other Facility Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes except as required by Applicable Law. If the Lender is required by applicable law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from such payments, then:

(i) the amount payable by the applicable Credit Party shall be increased so that after all such required deductions or withholdings are made (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section), the Lender receives an amount equal to the amount it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made, and

(ii) the Lender shall make such deductions or withholdings and pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

8.7 Further Assurances

Each of the Credit Parties shall, from time to time, as may be required by the Lender, execute and deliver such further and other documents and do all matters and things which are necessary to carry out the intention and provisions of this Agreement.

8.8 Lender May Perform Covenants

If any Credit Party fails to perform any of its covenants contained in this Agreement or any of the other Facility Documents, the Lender may, upon becoming aware of such failure, in its discretion, but need not, itself perform any of such covenants capable of being performed by it, but is under no obligation to do so. All sums so required to be paid in connection with the Lender's performance of any covenant will be paid by the Credit Parties and all sums so paid shall be payable by the Credit Parties in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.4 hereof. No such performance by the Lender of any such covenant or payment or expenditure by any Credit Party of any sums advanced or borrowed by the Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions shall be deemed to relieve any Credit Party from any default hereunder or their respective continuing obligations hereunder.

12.3 Survival

12.4 Benefits of Agreement

- 34 -

The Facility Documents are entered into for the sole protection and benefit of the parties hereto and their successors and assigns, and no other Person (other than the Indemnified Parties) shall be a direct or indirect beneficiary of, or shall have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, any Facility Document.

This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the parties hereto and thereafter shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

(a) If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in Dollars into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, the Lender could purchase Dollars with such other currency at the buying spot rate of exchange in the foreign exchange markets on the Business Day immediately preceding that on which any such judgment, or any relevant part thereof, is given.

(b) The obligations of the Credit Parties in respect of any sum due to the Lender hereunder and under the other Facility Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than Dollars, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Lender of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency the Lender may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase Dollars with such other currency. If the amount of Dollars so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Lender in Dollars, each of the Credit Parties agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Lender against such loss. If the amount of Dollars so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to the Lender in Dollars, the Lender shall remit such excess to the relevant Credit Parties.

12.8 Payments Set Aside

To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to the Lender, or the Lender exercises its right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada), the Companies Creditors Arrangement Act (Canada) and the Winding- up and Restructuring Act (Canada) or other Canadian federal, provincial or foreign liquidation, conservatorship, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors, moratorium, rearrangement, receivership, insolvency, reorganization, or similar debtor relief laws, or otherwise, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such set- off had not occurred.

12.9 Severability

Whenever possible, each provision of the Facility Documents shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under all Applicable Laws. If, however, any provision of any of the Facility Documents shall be prohibited by or invalid under any such Applicable Law in any jurisdiction, it shall, as to such jurisdiction, be deemed modified to conform to the minimum requirements of such Applicable Law, or, if for any reason it is not deemed so modified, it shall be ineffective and invalid only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without affecting the remaining provisions of such Facility Document, or the validity or effectiveness of such provision in any other jurisdiction.
