Upon commencing production of any Minerals from the Property, the Optionee will pay the Optionors a royalty on production (the “ Production Royalty ”) equal to 3% of Net Smelter Returns as defined below. “Net Smelter Returns” (“NSR”) shall mean all proceeds, received or deemed received from any mint, smelter, refinery, reduction works or other purchaser from the sale of ores, metals, concentrates or other mineral products produced or deemed to be produced from the Property after deducting from such proceeds to the extent that they are actually incurred and were not deducted by the purchaser in computing payment: sampling and assaying; treatment, smelting and refining charges; penalties; costs of transportation of ores, metals, concentrates or other mineral products from the Property to any mint, smelter refinery, reduction works or other purchaser; insurance on such ores, metals, concentrates or other mineral products.
-
The amount of NSR shall be calculated as follows:
-
(a) For gold produced from the Property, the NSR shall be calculated by determining, without duplication, the number of ounces of fine gold delivered to or to the order of the Optionee, purchased by, or out turned to the Optionee pool account or accounts by, any mint or refinery and the number of ounces of gold otherwise sold to any purchase during any calendar quarter and multiplying such number of ounces by the average of the daily London Bullion Brokers PM Gold Fixing during such quarter, less the deductions specified in paragraph 1, as applicable.
-
(b) For silver produced from the Property the NSR shall be calculated by determining, without duplication, the number of ounces of silver delivered to or to the order of the Optionee, purchased by, or out turned to the Optionee pool account or accounts by, any mint or refinery and the number of ounces of silver otherwise sold to any purchaser during any calendar quarter and multiplying such number of ounces by the average of the daily Handy & Harmon Noon Silver Quotation during such quarter, less the deductions specified in paragraph 1, as applicable.
-
(c) For minerals other than gold and silver produced from the Property the NSR shall be calculated based on the amounts actually received during any calendar quarter from the sale of ores, metals, concentrates or other mineral products, less the deductions specified in paragraph 1, as applicable.
-
(d) The amount of the NSR calculated in respect of any calendar quarter shall be paid by the Optionee to the Optionor within sixty (60) days of the end of the quarter. Payments shall be made in Canadian dollars and amounts calculated in U.S. dollars shall be converted into Canadian dollars at the exchange rate prevailing on the last business day of the calendar quarter in respect of which the NSR are payable. Payments of NSR shall be accompanied by detailed calculations and supporting documentation showing the amounts payable.
