AND WHEREAS both instalments have been lent to the Borrower pursuant to the terms of the Existing Senior Loan Agreement;

AND WHEREAS the Existing Senior Loan Agreement was amended on November 22, 2019 to (i) increase the principal amount to a total of fifteen million nine hundred thousand dollars ($15,900,000), and (ii) to extend the maturity date of the Existing Senior Loan Agreement to December 31, 2020;

AND WHEREAS as of November 17, 2020, the accrued interests on the Existing Senior Loan Agreement, as amended on November 22, 2019, amounted to one million five hundred eighty-nine thousand dollars ($1,589,000) which, in addition to the principal amount, result in a total outstanding payment obligation of seventeen million five hundred ninety-six thousand one hundred thirty-six dollars ($17,596,136) (as such amount may be revised from time to time to account for any additional capitalized interest thereon, the “ Principal Amount ”);

AND WHEREAS in relation to a financing of Seller with Glencore which closed on October 27, 2020, Lender agreed that the rank of the Security (as defined hereafter) be ceded to the rights of Glencore pursuant to the Glencore Convertible Debenture Hypothec (as defined herein);

AND WHEREAS Borrower has received from Lender a draft of a binding term sheet which was executed by the parties on November 17, 2020, pursuant to the terms of which the Existing Senior Loan Agreement, as amended on November 22, 2019, is to be amended and restated;

AND WHEREAS the parties hereto wish to enter into this agreement in order to amend and restate the provisions of the Existing Senior Loan Agreement, as amended on November 22, 2019, without novation on and subject to the terms and conditions of this agreement for the purposes set forth herein, all with effect as of and from the date hereof;

NOW THEREFORE THIS AGREEMENT WITNESSES that, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained and for other good and valuable consideration (the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged), the parties hereto covenant and agree that the Existing Senior Loan Agreement, as amended on November 22, 2019 shall be and is hereby amended and restated as follows:

1. Loan

The Lender has loaned, on the terms and conditions of this amended and restated convertible secured senior loan agreement (the “ Agreement ”), the principal amount of seventeen million five hundred ninety-six thousand one hundred thirty-six dollars ($17,596,136) to the Borrower.

Falco Resources Ltd. Amended and Restated Convertible Secured Senior Loan Agreement

The Loan (as defined herein) does not revolve and any amount repaid or prepaid, as the case may be, cannot be reborrowed and reduces the Loan by the amount repaid or prepaid, as the case may be.

2. Repayment

The Borrower shall pay at the latest on December 31, 2022 (the “ Maturity Date ”) to the Lender at its offices at 1100, av. des Canadiens-de-Montréal, Suite 300, Montreal, QC, H3B 2S2 (or at such other address or in such other manner as the Lender shall notify the Borrower), in lawful money of Canada, the Principal Amount together with interest on the Principal Amount outstanding from time to time.

3. Use of proceeds

The Loan shall be used by the Borrower for the advancement of the Horne 5 Property and for general corporate purposes.

4. Interest

Interest shall be payable on the Principal Amount outstanding at any time, and from time to time, and any overdue interest, at a rate per annum that is equal to 7%, compounded quarterly. Interest shall be payable upon repayment of the Principal Amount, as per the terms of this Agreement.

5. Criminal Rate of Interest

In no event shall the aggregate “interest” (as defined in Section 347 (the “ Criminal Code Section ”) of the Criminal Code (Canada)) payable to the Lender under this Agreement exceed the effective annual rate of interest lawfully permitted under the Criminal Code Section. Further, if any payment, collection or demand pursuant to this Agreement in respect of such “interest” is determined to be contrary to the provisions of the Criminal Code Section, such payment, collection, or demand shall be deemed to have been made by mutual mistake of the Lender and the Borrower and such “interest” shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law or so result in the receipt by the Lender of interest at a rate not in contravention of the Criminal Code Section.

6. Interest Act (Canada)

Each interest rate which is calculated under this Agreement on any basis other than a full calendar year (the “ deemed interest period ”) is, for the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), equivalent to a yearly rate calculated by dividing such interest rate by the actual number of days in the deemed interest period, then multiplying such result by the actual number of days in the calendar year (365 or 366).

7. Application of Payments

Any payments in respect of amounts due under this Agreement shall be applied first in satisfaction of any accrued and unpaid interest, and then to the Principal Amount outstanding.

8. Stream Agreement

The Borrower and the Lender have entered into a silver stream agreement dated February 27, 2019 (as amended on January 31, 2020 and further amended on the date hereof and thereafter from time to time, the “ Stream Agreement ”) toward the funding of the development of the Horne 5 Property.

14. Conversion of Loan

  • (a) Conversion of Loan into Common Shares.

  • (i) Upon and subject to the provisions and conditions of this Section 14, the Lender shall have the right, at its sole and absolute discretion, at any time following the first anniversary of the Closing Date up to the Maturity Date, to convert this Loan (in whole or in part) into such number of Common Shares equal to the Principal Amount and any accrued and unpaid or uncapitalized interest, divided by the Conversion Price (the “ Conversion ”, and the Common Shares issuable pursuant thereto, the “ Conversion Shares ”), but provided that Conversion of any portion of the Principal Amount which represents capitalized interest or any accrued and unpaid or uncapitalized interest shall be subject to TSX-V approval at the future time of Conversion and the Conversion Price applicable to capitalized interest shall be the “Market Price” as defined in TSX-V rules determined at the quarter end on which such interest became payable.

  • (ii) The Lender may exercise its right to effect the Conversion by sending to the Borrower at its principal address a notice to such effect in accordance with the provisions of this Section 14. Upon receipt by the Borrower of such notice, the Lender shall be entered in the books of the Borrower as at the date of Conversion as the holder of the number of Conversion Shares to which the Lender is entitled to upon Conversion and, as soon as practicable, the Borrower shall deliver to the Lender a certificate or certificates for such Conversion Shares. Upon delivery of the certificates for such Conversion Shares, the Principal Amount, including any accrued and unpaid or uncapitalized interest thereon, in respect of which such notice was given, shall be deemed repaid in full and no longer owing by the Borrower.

  • (iii) The Lender's right of Conversion pursuant to this Section 14 shall extend only to the maximum number of whole Common Shares into which the Principal Amount, including any accrued and unpaid or uncapitalized interest thereon, is then converted in accordance with the provisions of subparagraph 14(a)(i). No fractional interests in Common Shares shall be delivered in accordance with paragraph 14(d).

  • (iv) If a Conversion is in respect of capitalized interest, the Borrower shall promptly following receipt of the notice contemplated by subparagraph 14(a)(ii) make and diligently pursue an application to TSX-V to seek approval for the Conversion of such interest.

  • (b) Expiry of Loan Conversion Right. If, by 4:00pm (Montreal time) on the Maturity Date, the Lender has not exercised its Conversion right, the Principal Amount outstanding, including any accrued and unpaid or uncapitalized interest thereon, shall remain due and payable by the Borrower to the Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and the Lender's right to convert this Loan into Common Shares shall automatically terminate, unless the Borrower fails to make due and timely payment of the Principal Amount and any accrued and unpaid or uncapitalized interest by the Maturity Date, in which case the Conversion right shall not be terminated until such payment is made.

  • (c) Adjustment of Conversion Price, etc.

Page 5

Falco Resources Ltd.

Amended and Restated Convertible Secured Senior Loan Agreement

  • (i) If and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Conversion the Borrower shall (i) subdivide, re-divide or change its then outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of Common Shares, (ii) reduce, combine or consolidate its then outstanding Common Shares into a lesser number of Common Shares, or (iii) issue Common Shares (or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares) to the holders of all or substantially all of its then outstanding Common Shares by way of a stock dividend or other distribution (any of such events herein called a “ Share Reorganization ”), then the Conversion Price shall be adjusted effective immediately after the effective date of any such event in (i) or (ii) above or the record date at which the holders of Common Shares are determined for the purpose of any such stock dividend or other distribution in (iii) above, as the case may be, by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such effective date or record date, as the case may be, by a fraction, (y) the numerator of which shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding on such effective date or record date, as the case may be, before giving effect to such Share Reorganization and (z) the denominator of which shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such Share Reorganization including, in the case where securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares are distributed, the number of Common Shares that would be outstanding if such securities were exchanged for or converted into Common Shares.

  • (ii) If and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Maturity Date, there is a capital reorganization of the Borrower or a reclassification or other change in the Common Shares (other than a Share Reorganization) or a consolidation or merger, amalgamation or arrangement of the Borrower with or into any other corporation or other entity (other than a consolidation, merger, amalgamation or arrangement which does not result in any reclassification of the outstanding Common Shares or a change of the Common Shares into other securities), or a transfer of all or substantially all of the Borrower's undertaking and assets to another corporation or other entity in which the holders of Common Shares are entitled to receive shares, other securities or other property (any of such events being called a “ Capital Reorganization ”), the Lender shall be entitled to receive, and shall accept, upon the exercise of the right of Conversion at any time after the effective date thereof, in lieu of the number of Common Shares to which the Lender was theretofore entitled on Conversion, the kind and amount of shares, other securities or money or other property that the Lender would have been entitled to receive as a result of such Capital Reorganization if, on the effective date thereof, the Lender had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares to which the Lender was entitled upon Conversion, subject to adjustment thereafter in accordance with provisions the same, as nearly as may be possible, as those contained in this subparagraph 14(c)(ii).

  • (iii) If and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Maturity Date, any of the events set out in subparagraph 14(c)(i) or subparagraph 14(c)(ii) shall occur and the occurrence of such event results in an adjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to the provisions of subparagraph 14(c)(i) or subparagraph 14(c)(ii), as the case may be, then the number of Common Shares issuable pursuant to this Loan shall be adjusted contemporaneously with the adjustment of the Conversion Price by multiplying the number of Common Shares then otherwise issuable upon Conversion immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (y) the numerator

Page 6

Falco Resources Ltd. Amended and Restated Convertible Secured Senior Loan Agreement

of which shall be the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, and (z) the denominator of which shall be the Conversion Price resulting from such adjustment.

  • (iv) If any question arises with respect to the adjustments provided in this paragraph 14(c), such question shall be conclusively determined by a firm of chartered professional accountants appointed by the Borrower and acceptable to the Lender. Such chartered professional accountants shall be given access to all necessary records of the Borrower and their determination shall be binding upon the Borrower and the Lender.

  • (d) No Requirement to Issue Fractional Shares. The Borrower shall not be required to issue fractional Common Shares upon the Conversion. If any fractional interest in a Common Share would, except for the provisions of this Section 14, be deliverable upon the Conversion, such fractional interest shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number of Common Shares.

  • (e) Notice of Special Matters. The Borrower shall give notice to the Lender, in the manner provided in Section 34, of its intention to fix a record date for any event mentioned in paragraph 14(c) which may give rise to an adjustment in the number of Common Shares which may be acquired pursuant to paragraph 14(a), and, in each case, the notice shall specify the particulars of the event and the record date and the effective date for the event; provided that the Borrower shall only be required to specify in the notice such particulars of the event as shall have been fixed and determined on the date on which such notice is given. Such notice shall be given not less than 14 days prior to the applicable record date.

  • (f) Borrower to Reserve Shares and Hold Period. The Borrower shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized Common Shares and solely for the purpose of conversion as in this Section 14 provided, and conditionally allot to the Lender, such number of Common Shares as shall then be issuable upon the Conversion. The Borrower covenants with the Lender that all Common Shares which shall be so issuable shall be duly and validly issued as fully-paid and non-assessable. This Loan shall be subject to a prescribed four month and one day hold period. Any certificate representing Common Shares issued within four months from the date hereof shall bear the following legend (and such other legend as required by the TSX-V or applicable securities laws):

    • UNLESS PERMITTED UNDER SECURITIES LEGISLATION, THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY MUST NOT TRADE THIS SECURITY BEFORE MARCH 28, 2021.

WITHOUT PRIOR WRITTEN APPROVAL OF TSX VENTURE EXCHANGE AND COMPLIANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE SECURITIES LEGISLATION, THIS SECURITY MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE TRADED ON OR THROUGH THE FACILITIES OF TSX VENTURE EXCHANGE OR OTHERWISE IN CANADA OR TO OR FOR THE BENEFIT OF A CANADIAN RESIDENT UNTIL MARCH 28, 2021.

  • (g) Lender not a Shareholder. Nothing in this Agreement shall, in itself, confer or be construed as conferring upon the Lender any right or interest whatsoever as a shareholder of the Borrower, including, but not limited to, the right to vote at, to receive, subject to

Page 7

Falco Resources Ltd. Amended and Restated Convertible Secured Senior Loan Agreement

paragraph 14(e), notice of, or to attend, meetings of shareholders or any other proceedings of the Borrower, or the right to receive dividends and other distributions.

15. Redemption Offer Upon a Change of Control

Within 30 days following the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Borrower shall make an offer to the Lender to repurchase this Loan in whole for cash by paying to the Lender an amount equal to the sum of (i) 105% of the Principal Amount and (ii) any accrued and unpaid or uncapitalized interest under this Loan. The notice to be delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 15 (the “ Repurchase Notice ”) shall, among other things, specify the date on which the repurchase is to be completed if accepted by the Lender (the “ Repurchase Date ”), which date shall be no less than fifteen (15) and no more than thirty (30) days from the date on which the Repurchase Notice is received by the Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, despite having received a Repurchase Notice the Lender may convert any or all of the Principal Amount at any time up to the earliest of the Maturity Date or the Repurchase Date in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 14.

16. Repayment of the Loan

Subject to Section 20, the Principal Amount of the Loan and accrued and unpaid interests shall be repaid at the Maturity Date.

17. No Waiver by the Lender

Neither the extension of time for making any payment which is due and payable under this Agreement at any time or times, nor the failure, delay, or omission of the Lender to exercise or enforce any of its rights or remedies under this Agreement, shall constitute a waiver by the Lender of its right to enforce any such rights and remedies subsequently. The single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy shall not preclude the Lender’s further exercise of such right or remedy or any other right or remedy.

18. Representations and Warranties
