Eloro Resources Ltd.
20 Adelaide Street East, Suite 200

M5C 2T6, Canada

Attention: Thomas Larsen, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

Dear Sir:

Re: Bought Deal Private Placement of Units

Red Cloud Securities Inc. (“Red Cloud” or the “Underwriter”), as sole underwriter and bookrunner, understands that Eloro Resources Ltd. (the “Corporation”) proposes to issue and sell, and the Underwriter hereby offers to purchase, on a “bought deal” private placement basis, or find Substituted Purchasers (as defined below) to purchase on their behalf, 9,566,000 units of the Corporation (the “Units”) at a price of $1.15 per Unit (the “Purchase Price”), for aggregate gross proceeds of $11,000,900, subject to the terms and conditions set out below (the “Offering”).

In addition, the Corporation has granted the Underwriter an over-allotment option (the “Over-Allotment Option”), exercisable up to 48 hours prior to the closing of the Offering, to purchase up to 2,609,000 additional Units (the “Over-Allotment Units”) at the Purchase Price for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $3,000,350. All references herein to the “Offering” shall be deemed to include the Over-Allotment Option and all references herein to Units shall be deemed to include the Over-Allotment Units. As of the date thereof, the Over-Allotment Option has been exercised in full.

Each Unit shall be composed of one common share of the Corporation (a “Share”), and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole common share purchase warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire one common share of the Corporation (a “Warrant Share”) at a price of $1.60 for a period of thirty-six months following the Closing Date (as defined below). The Warrants shall be issued pursuant to, and the exercise of the Warrants shall be governed by, the provisions of a warrant indenture (the “Warrant Indenture”), to be entered into between the Corporation and TSX Trust Company as warrant agent, in the form and on terms satisfactory to the Corporation and the Underwriter, acting reasonably. The Units, Shares, and Warrants in each case sold pursuant to this Agreement (as defined below), are collectively referred to as the “Offered Securities”. The description of the Warrants herein is a summary only and is subject to the specific attributes and detailed provisions of the Warrants to be set forth in the Warrant Indenture. In case of any inconsistency between the description of the Warrants in this Agreement and the terms of the Warrants as set forth in the Warrant Indenture, the provisions of the Warrant Indenture shall govern.

The Underwriter shall have the right to solicit orders and obtain substituted purchasers (the “Substituted Purchasers”) in place of the Underwriter in which case (a) the Corporation will sell such Units (or part thereof) to such Substituted Purchasers; and (b) the obligation of the Underwriter to purchase the Units from the Corporation shall be reduced by the number of Units purchased by the Substituted Purchasers. It is understood that the Underwriter agrees to purchase or cause to be purchased the Units, and that this commitment is not subject to the Underwriter being able to arrange Substituted Purchasers. Any reference in this Agreement hereafter to “Purchasers” shall be taken to be a reference to the Substituted Purchasers, if any, and the Underwriter, as the initial committed Purchaser.


2

The Units will be distributed to the Underwriter or to the Substituted Purchasers on a private placement basis. To the extent that Substituted Purchasers purchase the Offered Securities, the Underwriter shall not be obligated to purchase the Offered Securities so purchased by such Substituted Purchaser. For greater certainty, to the extent that the Underwriter arranges for Substituted Purchasers to purchase the Offered Securities, and such Offered Securities are so purchased, the Underwriter will be acting as the Corporation’s exclusive agent to offer the Offered Securities and to the extent that Substituted Purchasers acquire any of the Offered Securities, the Underwriter shall not be deemed to have acquired (at any time) or have any obligation to acquire any of such Offered Securities, but in respect of which, the Commission (as defined below) shall be payable.

The Units to be sold under the Offering will be distributed pursuant to the “listed issuer financing exemption” as such prospectus exemption is described in Part 5A: Listed Issuer Financing Exemption of NI 45-106 (as defined below) as amended and supplemented by Order 45-935 (as defined below) (collectively, the “LIFE”) and the LIFE Offering Document (as defined below) in the manner contemplated by this underwriting agreement (the “Agreement”). Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Underwriter, acting through the U.S. Affiliate (as defined below) in accordance with this Agreement, may offer the Units for sale by the Corporation to, or for the account or benefit of, persons in the United States (as defined herein) and U.S. Persons (as defined herein) that are Qualified Institutional Buyers (as defined herein) in compliance with Rule 506(b) of Regulation D under the 1933 Act (as defined herein), and in compliance with applicable U.S. state Securities Laws and the provisions of Schedule “A” attached hereto.

12.4 The Indemnitor agrees that in case any legal proceeding is asserted against or brought against the Indemnitor and/or the Underwriter or its Personnel by any governmental commission or regulatory authority or any stock exchange or other entity having regulatory authority, either domestic or foreign, or shall investigate the Indemnitor and/or the Underwriter, and/or any Personnel shall be required to testify in connection therewith or shall be required to respond to procedures designed to discover information regarding, in connection with, or by reason of the performance of professional services rendered to the Indemnitor by the Underwriter, the Underwriter shall have the right to employ its own counsel in connection therewith, and the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel as well as the reasonable costs (including an amount to reimburse the Underwriter for time spent by the Underwriter or its Personnel in connection therewith) and out-of-pocket expenses incurred at competitive rates by the Underwriter or its Personnel in connection therewith shall be paid by the Indemnitor as they occur, provided, however, that in no circumstances will the Indemnitor be required to pay the fees and expenses of more than one legal counsel for all of the Underwriter and its Personnel, unless: (a) the Indemnitor and the Underwriter have mutually agreed to the retention of more than one legal counsel for the Underwriter or its Personnel; or (b) the Underwriter and its Personnel have or any of them has been advised in writing by legal counsel that representation of the Underwriter or its Personnel by the same legal counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them.

12.5 Promptly after receipt of notice of the commencement of any legal proceeding against the Underwriter or its Personnel or after receipt of notice of the commencement or any investigation, matter or thing which is based, directly or indirectly, upon any matter in respect of which indemnification may be sought from the Indemnitor, the Underwriter will notify the Indemnitor in writing of the commencement thereof and, throughout the course thereof, will provide copies of all relevant documentation to the Indemnitor, will keep the Indemnitor advised of the progress thereof and will discuss with the Indemnitor all significant actions proposed. However, the failure by the Underwriter to notify the Indemnitor will not relieve the Indemnitor of its obligations to indemnify the Underwriter and/or any Personnel, unless (and only to the extent that) such failure results in a forfeiture by the Indemnitor or material impairment of its substantive rights or defences, prejudices the defence of any action, suit, proceeding, claim or investigation or results in any material increase in the liability under this indemnity. The Indemnitor shall on behalf of itself and the Underwriter and/or any Personnel, as applicable, be entitled to (but not required) to assume the defence of any suit brought to enforce such legal proceeding; provided, however, that the defence shall be conducted through legal counsel acceptable to the Underwriter and/or any Personnel, as applicable, acting reasonably, that no settlement of any such legal proceeding may be made by the Indemnitor without the prior written consent of the Underwriter and/or any Personnel, acting reasonably, as applicable, and neither the Underwriter nor any Personnel, as applicable, shall be liable for any settlement of any such legal proceeding unless it has consented in writing to such settlement, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. The Underwriter and its Personnel shall have the right to appoint its own separate counsel at the Indemnitor's cost provided the Underwriter acts reasonably in selecting such counsel.

12.6 The indemnity and contribution obligations of the Indemnitor shall be in addition to any liability which the Indemnitor may otherwise have, shall extend upon the same terms and conditions to the Personnel of the Underwriter and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Indemnitor, the Underwriter and any of its Personnel. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 12, the foregoing provisions shall survive the completion of professional services rendered under this Agreement or any termination of this Agreement indefinitely.
