The obligations of each Purchaser under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance or non-performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any Proceeding for such purpose. Each Purchaser has been represented by its own separate legal counsel in its review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents. For reasons of administrative convenience only, each Purchaser and its respective counsel have chosen to communicate with the Company through the legal counsel of the Placement Agent. The legal counsel of the Placement Agent does not represent any of the Purchasers and only represents the Placement Agent. The Company has elected to provide all Purchasers with the same terms and Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do so by any of the Purchasers. It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement and in each other Transaction Document is between the Company and a Purchaser, solely, and not between the Company and the Purchasers collectively and not between and among the Purchasers.</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in; text-align:justify;">5.18 <u>[Reserved].</u></p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"> <table style="border-spacing:0;font:10pt times new roman;width:100%" cellpadding="0"> <tr style="height:15px"> <td class="hpbhr">&nbsp;</td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td style="BORDER-BOTTOM: black 1px solid; TEXT-INDENT: 0px;text-align:center;">22</td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td><p style='page-break-after: always'></p></td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td>&nbsp;</td></tr></table></p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"></p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in; text-align:justify;">5.19 <u>Liquidated Damages</u>.

Evans:</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">Subject to the terms and conditions of this letter agreement (the &#8220;<strong>Agreement</strong>&#8221;) between A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners, (&#8220;<strong>AGP</strong>&#8221; or the &#8220;<strong>Placement Agent</strong>&#8221;) as sole placement agent, and United States Antimony Corporation, a Texas corporation (the &#8220;<strong>Company</strong>&#8221;), that the Placement Agent shall serve as the exclusive placement agent for the Company, on a &#8220;reasonable best efforts&#8221; basis, in connection with the proposed placement (the &#8220;<strong>Placement</strong>&#8221;) of shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share of the Company (the &#8220;<strong>Shares</strong>&#8221; or the &#8220;<strong>Securities</strong>&#8221;). The Securities actually placed by the Placement Agent are referred to herein as the &#8220;<strong>Placement Agent Securities</strong>.&#8221; The terms of the Placement shall be mutually agreed upon by the Company and the purchasers (each, a &#8220;<strong>Purchaser</strong>&#8221; and collectively, the &#8220;<strong>Purchasers</strong>&#8221;), and nothing herein constitutes that the Placement Agent would have the power or authority to bind the Company or any Purchaser, or an obligation for the Company will issue any Securities or complete the Placement. The Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that the Placement Agent&#8217;s obligations hereunder are on a reasonable best efforts basis only and that the execution of this Agreement does not constitute a commitment by the Placement Agent to purchase the Securities and does not ensure the successful placement of the Securities or any portion thereof or the success of the Placement Agent with respect to securing any other financing on behalf of the Company. The Placement Agent may retain other brokers or dealers to act as sub-agents or selected-dealers on its behalf in connection with the Placement. Certain affiliates of the Placement Agent may participate in the Placement by purchasing some of the Placement Agent Securities. The sale of Placement Agent Securities to any Purchaser will be evidenced by a securities purchase agreement (the &#8220;<strong>Purchase</strong> <strong>Agreement</strong>&#8221;) between the Company and such Purchaser, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Purchaser. Capitalized terms that are not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in the Purchase Agreement. Prior to the signing of any Purchase Agreement, officers of the Company will be available to answer inquiries from prospective Purchasers.</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"><u>SECTION 1.</u> <u>REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY; COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY</u>.</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 90px; text-align:justify;">A. <u>Representations of the Company</u>. With respect to the Placement Agent Securities, each of the representations and warranties (together with any related disclosure schedules thereto) and covenants made by the Company to the Purchasers in the Purchase Agreement in connection with the Placement, is hereby incorporated herein by reference into this Agreement (as though fully restated herein) and is, as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date, hereby made to, and in favor of, the Placement Agent. In addition to the foregoing, the Company represents and warrants that there are no affiliations with any Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (&#8220;<strong>FINRA</strong>&#8221;) member firm participating in the Placement among the Company&#8217;s officers, directors or, to the knowledge of the Company, any five percent (5.0%) or greater securityholder of the Company, except as set forth in the Purchase Agreement.</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 90px; text-align:justify;">B. <u>Covenants of the Company</u>. The Company covenants and agrees to continue to retain (i) a firm of independent PCAOB registered public accountants for a period of at least two (2) years after the Closing Date and (ii) a reputable transfer agent with respect to the Common Stock for a period of two (2) years after the Closing Date, provided the Company is then subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the &#8220;<strong>Exchange Act</strong><a name="_Hlk207108231">&#8221;). </a></p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 90px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"> <table style="border-spacing:0;font:10pt times new roman;width:100%" cellpadding="0"> <tr style="height:15px"> <td class="hpbhr">&nbsp;</td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td style="BORDER-BOTTOM: black 1px solid; TEXT-INDENT: 0px;text-align:center;">1</td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td><p style='page-break-after: always'></p></td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td>&nbsp;</td></tr></table></p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"></p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align:justify;"></p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"><u>SECTION 2</u>. <u>REPRESENTATIONS OF THE PLACEMENT AGENT</u>. <a name="_DV_M164"></a><a name="_DV_M165"></a>The Placement Agent represents and warrants that it is (i) a member in good standing of FINRA, (ii) registered as a broker/dealer under the Exchange Act, (iii) licensed as a broker/dealer under the laws of the United States of America, applicable to the offers and sales of the Placement Agent Securities by the Placement Agent, (iv) is a corporate body validly existing under the laws of its place of incorporation, and (v) has full power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement.

In consideration of the services to be provided for hereunder, the Company shall pay the Placement Agent and/or its respective designees a cash fee of 7.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised from the sale of the Placement Agent Securities (the &#8220;<strong>Cash Fee</strong>&#8221;). A credit will be applied to the Company on the Closing Date equal to 4.5% of the aggregate participation from the Purchasers. </a>The Cash Fee shall be paid on the Closing Date. The Placement Agent reserves the right to reduce any item of compensation or adjust the terms thereof as specified herein in the event that a determination shall be made by FINRA to the effect that the Placement Agent&#8217;s aggregate compensation is in excess of FINRA Rules or that the terms thereof require adjustment.</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"><u>SECTION 4</u>. <u>EXPENSES</u>. The Company agrees to pay all costs, fees and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with the performance of its obligations hereunder and in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, including, without limitation: (i) all expenses incident to the issuance, delivery and qualification of the Placement Agent Securities (including all printing and engraving costs); (ii) all fees and expenses of the transfer agent; (iii) all necessary issue, transfer and other stamp taxes in connection with the issuance and sale of the Placement Agent Securities; (iv) all fees and expenses of the Company&#8217;s counsel, independent public or certified public accountants and other advisors in connection with the transaction; (v) all filing fees, reasonable attorneys&#8217; fees and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with qualifying or registering (or obtaining exemptions from the qualification or registration of) all or any part of the Placement Agent Securities for offer and sale under the state securities or blue sky laws or the securities laws of any other country; and (vi) the fees and expenses associated with including the Placement Agent Securities on the Trading Market. The Company shall not be required to pay the Placement Agent any fees or expenses except for the Cash Fee, the reimbursement of up to $35,000 of reasonable and documented legal expenses and clearing agent fees and expenses, incurred with respect to the engagement hereunder; provided, however, that this sentence in no way limits or impairs the indemnification or contribution provisions contained herein. The Placement Agent reserves the right to reduce any item of compensation or adjust the terms thereof as specified herein in the event that a determination shall be made by FINRA to the effect that the Placement Agent&#8217;s aggregate compensation is in excess of FINRA Rules or that the terms thereof require adjustment.</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"><u>SECTION 5</u>. <u>INDEMNIFICATION</u>.</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 45px; text-align:justify;">A. To the extent permitted by law, with respect to the Placement Agent Securities, the Company will indemnify the Placement Agent and its affiliates, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, members and controlling persons (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) against all losses, claims, damages, expenses and liabilities, as the same are incurred (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel), <a name="_cp_text_1_10">relating to or </a>arising out of its activities hereunder or pursuant to this Agreement, except to the extent that any losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) are found in a final judgment (not subject to appeal) by a court of law to have resulted primarily and directly from the Placement Agent&#8217;s willful misconduct or gross negligence in performing the services described herein; provided further, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement, any Incorporated Document, or any Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Placement Agent specifically for use in the preparation thereof.</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 45px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"> <table style="border-spacing:0;font:10pt times new roman;width:100%" cellpadding="0"> <tr style="height:15px"> <td class="hpbhr">&nbsp;</td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td style="BORDER-BOTTOM: black 1px solid; TEXT-INDENT: 0px;text-align:center;">2</td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td><p style='page-break-after: always'></p></td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td>&nbsp;</td></tr></table></p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"></p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align:justify;"></p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 45px; text-align:justify;">B. Promptly after receipt by the Placement Agent of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action or proceeding with respect to which the Placement Agent is entitled to indemnity hereunder, the Placement Agent will notify the Company in writing of such claim or of the commencement of such action or proceeding, but failure to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company from any obligation it may have hereunder, except <a name="_cp_text_1_11">and only </a>to the extent such failure<a name="_cp_text_1_13"> results in the forfeiture by the Company of substantial rights and defenses</a>. If the Company so elects or is requested by the Placement Agent, the Company will assume the defense of such action or proceeding and will employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Placement Agent and will pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Placement Agent will be entitled to employ counsel separate from counsel for the Company and from any other party in such action if counsel for the Placement Agent reasonably determines that it would be inappropriate under the applicable rules of professional responsibility for the same counsel to represent both the Company and the Placement Agent. In such event, the reasonable fees and disbursements of no more than one such separate counsel will be paid by the Company, in addition to fees of local counsel. The Company will have the right to settle the claim or proceeding provided that the Company will not settle any such claim, action or proceeding without the prior written consent of the Placement Agent, which will not be unreasonably withheld. The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any action effected without its written consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld.</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 45px; text-align:justify;">C. The Company agrees to notify the Placement Agent promptly of the assertion against it or any other person of any claim or the commencement of any action or proceeding relating to a transaction contemplated by this Agreement.</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 45px; text-align:justify;">D. If for any reason the foregoing indemnity is unavailable to the Placement Agent or insufficient to hold the Placement Agent harmless, then the Company shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Placement Agent as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Placement Agent on the other, but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Placement Agent on the other that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any relevant equitable considerations. The amounts paid or payable by a party in respect of losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees and expenses incurred in defending any litigation, proceeding or other action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions hereof, the Placement Agent&#8217;s share of the liability hereunder shall not be in excess of the amount of fees actually received, or to be received, by the Placement Agent under this Agreement (excluding any amounts received as reimbursement of expenses incurred by the Placement Agent).</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 45px; text-align:justify;">E. These indemnification provisions shall remain in full force and effect whether or not the transaction contemplated by this Agreement is completed and shall survive the termination of this Agreement, and shall be in addition to any liability that the Company might otherwise have to any indemnified party under this Agreement or otherwise.</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 45px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"> <table style="border-spacing:0;font:10pt times new roman;width:100%" cellpadding="0"> <tr style="height:15px"> <td class="hpbhr">&nbsp;</td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td style="BORDER-BOTTOM: black 1px solid; TEXT-INDENT: 0px;text-align:center;">3</td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td><p style='page-break-after: always'></p></td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td>&nbsp;</td></tr></table></p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"></p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align:justify;"></p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;"><u>SECTION 6</u>. <u>ENGAGEMENT TERM</u>.
