Goliath Resources Limited
82 Richmond Street East
Toronto, Ontario
M5C 1P1

Attention: Roger Rosmus, Founder, Chief Executive Officer & Director

Dear Mr. Rosmus,

Stifel Nicolaus Canada Inc., as sole bookrunner and lead underwriter (the "Lead Underwriter"), and Cormark Securities Inc. and CIBC World Markets Inc. (collectively, with the Lead Underwriter, the "Underwriters") understand that Goliath Resources Limited (the "Company") proposes to issue and sell to the Underwriters an aggregate of 6,310,000 common shares in the capital of the Company that will qualify as "flow-through shares" (as defined in subsection 66(15) of the Tax Act (as defined herein) (the "FT Shares") at a price of $3.17 per FT Share (the "Subscription Price") for aggregate gross proceeds of $20,002,700 (the "Offering").

Upon and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Underwriters hereby severally, and not jointly, nor jointly and severally, agree to purchase (or find Substituted Purchasers (as defined below) to purchase on their behalf) from the Company and, by the acceptance of this Agreement, the Company agrees to sell to the Underwriters (or Substituted Purchasers) at the Closing Time (as defined herein) all, but not less than all, of the FT Shares at the Subscription Price for aggregate gross proceeds of $20,002,700. The Offering will be completed on a private placement basis pursuant to the "listed issuer financing exemption" from the prospectus requirements (the "LIFE Exemption") available under Part 5A of NI 45-106 (as defined herein) in each of the provinces of Canada, other than Québec (the "Selling Jurisdictions"). Although the offer to purchase the FT Shares is being made by the Underwriters, the Underwriters will endeavour to arrange for substituted purchasers (collectively, the "Substituted Purchasers") to purchase the FT Shares in the Selling Jurisdictions (as defined herein) in place of the Underwriters. To the extent that Substituted Purchasers purchase FT Shares at the Closing (as defined herein), the Underwriters shall not be obligated to purchase the FT Shares so purchased by such Substituted Purchasers.

The Underwriters have been granted an option (the "Underwriters' Option"), which Underwriters' Option may be exercised, in whole or in part, at the Underwriters' sole discretion and without obligation, to purchase (or find Substituted Purchasers to purchase on their behalf) from the Company up to 946,500 additional FT Shares at the Subscription Price, for additional aggregate gross proceeds of up to $3,000,405. The Underwriters' Option shall be exercisable by the Lead Underwriter at any time until 48 hours prior to the Closing Time (as defined herein), after which time the Underwriters' Option shall be void and of no further force and effect.


The Company understands that certain purchasers of FT Shares may subsequently (i) donate such shares to registered charities, who may sell such shares to purchasers arranged by the Underwriters at the price of $1.95 per Common Share (as defined herein) (the "Re-Offer Price"), or (ii) immediately sell such shares to purchasers arranged by the Underwriters at the Re-Offer Price (in each case, the "Redistributed Shares").

If exercised, any FT Shares issued upon exercise of the Underwriters' Option shall be deemed to form part of the Offering for the purposes thereof. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to the "Offering" and "FT Shares" shall include any FT Shares issued in connection with the exercise of the Underwriters' Option.

All of the FT Shares will be distributed on a private placement basis pursuant to the LIFE Exemption to purchasers resident in the Selling Jurisdictions and will be freely tradeable upon issuance pursuant to applicable Securities Laws. The FT Shares will not be offered for sale in the United States or any other off-shore jurisdiction. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Underwriters, acting through their respective U.S. Affiliates (as defined herein), may offer and sell the Redistributed Shares in the United States on a private placement basis to Qualified Institutional Buyers (as defined herein) in accordance with Rule 144A, and applicable state securities laws, it being understood and agreed that such sales do not trigger: (i) any obligation to prepare and file a prospectus, offering memorandum, registration statement or similar disclosure documents; or (ii) any registration or other obligation on the part of the Company including, but not limited to, any continuing obligation in that jurisdiction. Offers and sales of the Redistributed Shares may also be made in certain offshore jurisdictions pursuant to relevant prospectus or registration exemptions in accordance with applicable securities laws.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

1.

(a) Sale on Exempt Basis.

(i) The Company understands that although the offer to purchase the FT Shares is being made by the Underwriters, the Underwriters will endeavour to arrange for Substituted Purchasers for the FT Shares in the Selling Jurisdictions, subject to acceptance by the Company, acting reasonably, of the Subscription Agreements, and each such Substituted Purchaser shall be entitled to the benefits of such subscription therefor as the beneficial purchaser thereof. The Underwriters shall offer for sale the FT Shares pursuant to the Offering in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, on a private placement basis pursuant to LIFE Exemption. The Underwriters acknowledge that, subject to the conditions contained in Section 7 hereof being satisfied and subject to the rights of the Underwriters contained in Section 8 hereof, the Underwriters shall become obligated to purchase or cause to be purchased all of the FT Shares. To the extent that Substituted Purchasers purchase FT Shares at the Closing, the Underwriters shall not be obligated to purchase the FT Shares so purchased by such Substituted Purchasers.

(ii) The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that neither the FT Shares nor the Redistributed Shares have been, nor will they be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to available exemptions from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and similar exemptions under applicable securities laws of any state of the United States. The parties agree that (i) the Underwriters will not arrange for Purchasers of the FT Shares in the United States, and (ii) any offer to purchase any Redistributed Shares to investors in the United States will be made by the Underwriters, acting through their respective U.S. Affiliates, in accordance with this Agreement, on a private-placement basis to Qualified Institutional Buyers or to Purchasers in such other off-shore jurisdictions, it being understood and agreed that such sales do not trigger: (i) any obligation to prepare and file a prospectus, offering memorandum, registration statement or similar disclosure documents; or (ii) any registration or other obligation on the part of the Company including, but not limited to, any continuing obligation in that jurisdiction.

(b) Filings. The Company agrees to comply with all Securities Laws on a timely basis in connection with the Offering and undertakes to file, or cause to be filed, within the periods stipulated under Securities Laws, all forms or undertakings required to be filed by the Company in connection with the issue and sale of the FT Shares so that the distribution of the FT Shares may lawfully occur without the necessity of filing a prospectus, a registration statement or an offering memorandum in the Selling Jurisdiction, and the Underwriters undertake to use commercially reasonable best efforts to cause Purchasers to complete any forms required by

8


Securities Laws. All fees payable in connection with such filings shall be at the expense of the Company.

(c) No Offering Memorandum. Other than the LIFE Offering Document and as otherwise permitted by the LIFE Exemption, neither the Company nor the Underwriters shall (i) provide to prospective purchasers of the FT Shares any document or other material that would constitute an offering memorandum or future oriented financial information within the meaning of Securities Laws; or (ii) engage in any form of general solicitation or general advertising in connection with the offer and sale of the FT Shares, including but not limited to, causing the sale of the FT Shares to be advertised in any newspaper, magazine, printed public media, printed media or similar medium of general and regular paid circulation, broadcast over radio, television or telecommunications, including electronic display, or conduct any seminar or meeting relating to the offer and sale of the FT Shares whose attendees have been invited by general solicitation or advertising.

1.1 Follow-On Transactions.

(a) The Company understands that following the Closing, some or all of the FT Shares may be (i) donated to a "qualified donee", as defined in the Tax Act, as part of a charitable donation arrangement promoted by a third party; (ii) immediately sold to a third party, or (iii) any combination of (i) and (ii) (each a "Follow-On Transaction").

(b) The Underwriters acknowledge that the Company has no knowledge of the Follow-On Transactions other than that they may or may not occur and that the Company will have no involvement or participation in any Follow-On Transactions, other than to register any transfer of securities required as a result, and the Company makes no representation or warranty with respect to the tax effect any Follow-On Transaction may have on the status of the FT Shares or value for charitable donation for the purposes of the Tax Act.

(c) Neither the Underwriters nor their respective U.S. Affiliates act, and they will not purport to act, as agent or representative of the Company in connection with any Follow-On Transaction, and services or activities, if any, performed by the Underwriters in connection with any Follow-On Transaction are excluded from this Agreement. The consideration payable to the Underwriters hereunder is for the Underwriters' services in respect of the Offering only. The parties further acknowledge that the Company is not entitled, and will not become entitled, to receive any consideration in respect of any Follow-On Transaction that might occur.

(d) The Company shall not be liable or responsible for any breach of any covenant or representation given in this Agreement which is dependant solely on the FT Shares qualifying as "flow-through shares" as defined in subsection 66(15) of the Tax Act, if the only reason that the FT Shares do not so qualify is that they are "prescribed shares" under section 6202.1 of the regulations to the Tax Act as a result of a Follow-On Transaction. For certainty, all other covenants and representations given by the Company in this Agreement which are not affected directly by any Follow-On Transaction shall remain in full force and effect.

Eligible Expenses, whether incurred by the Underwriters or on its behalf, shall be immediately payable by the Company upon receipt of an invoice.

  1. Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Company herein contained or contained in any documents submitted pursuant to this Agreement and in connection with the transactions herein contemplated shall survive the Closing and, notwithstanding such Closing or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Underwriters or the Purchasers with respect thereto, shall continue in full force and effect for the benefit of the Underwriters and the Purchasers. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Underwriters herein contained and in connection with the transactions herein contemplated shall survive the Closing and, notwithstanding such Closing or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company with respect thereto, shall continue in full force and effect for the benefit of the Company for a period of two years following the Closing Date.

  2. Indemnity.

(a) The Company and the Subsidiary (collectively, the "Indemnitor") hereby agree to indemnify and hold the Underwriters and the directors, officers, and employees of the Underwriters (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties" and each, an "Indemnified Party") harmless from and against any and all expenses, losses (other than loss of profits), claims, actions, damages or liabilities (collectively, "Losses"), whether joint or several (including the aggregate amount paid in reasonable settlement of any actions, suits, proceedings or claims), and the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel that may be incurred in advising with respect to and/or defending any claim that may be made against any Indemnified Party (collectively, the "Claims"), to which any Indemnified Party may become subject or otherwise involved in any capacity under any statute or common law or otherwise insofar as such Claims arise out of or are based, directly or indirectly, upon the performance of professional services rendered to the Indemnitor by the Indemnified Party hereunder or otherwise in connection with the Offering, provided, however, that this indemnity shall not apply to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment that has become non-appealable shall determine that:

(i) the Indemnified Party has been grossly negligent, engaged in willful misconduct or have committed any fraudulent act in the course of such performance of professional services rendered to the Company by the Indemnified Party; and

(ii) the Claims as to which indemnification is claimed, were directly caused by the gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud referred to in (i).

40


(b) The Indemnitor agrees that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to the Company or any person asserting Claims on behalf of or in right of the Company for or in connection with the Offering except to the extent of the amount of any Losses suffered by the Company are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment that has become non-appealable to have resulted primarily from any of the events itemized in 11(a)(i) or 11(a)(ii) above)

(c) If for any reason (other than the occurrence of any of the events itemized in 11(a)(i) or 11(a)(ii) above), the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or is insufficient to hold an Indemnified Party harmless, the Indemnitor shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Parties as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Indemnitor on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on the other hand but also the relative fault of the Indemnitor and the Indemnified Party, as well as any relevant equitable considerations, provided that the Indemnitor shall, in any event, contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses, any excess of such amount over the amount of the fees received by the Indemnified Party, if any, under this Agreement.

(d) The Indemnitor agrees that in case any legal proceeding shall be brought against the Indemnitor and/or an Indemnified Party by any governmental commission or regulatory authority or any stock exchange or other entity having regulatory authority, either domestic or foreign, shall investigate the Indemnitor and/or the Indemnified Party 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 Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party 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 Indemnified Party for time spent by its directors, officers, and employees) and out-of-pocket expenses incurred at competitive rates by such directors, officers, and employees in connection therewith shall be paid by the Indemnitor as they occur, provided 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 Indemnified Parties, unless:

(i) the Indemnitor and the Indemnified Parties have mutually agreed to the retention of more than one legal counsel for the Indemnified Parties; or
(ii) the Indemnified Parties have or any of them has been advised in writing by legal counsel that representation of all of the Indemnified Parties by the same legal counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them.

(e) Promptly after receipt of notice of the commencement of any legal proceeding against the Indemnified Parties or after receipt of notice of the commencement of any investigation, which is based, directly or indirectly, upon any matter in respect of which indemnification may be sought from the Indemnitor, the Indemnified Parties will notify the Indemnitor in writing of the commencement thereof. Failure to so notify the Indemnitor shall not relieve the Indemnitor from liability except and

41


only to the extent that the failure materially prejudices the Indemnitor or results in any material increase in the liability which the Indemnitor would otherwise have under this indemnity had the Indemnified Parties not so delayed in giving or failed to give the notice required hereunder. Throughout the course of such proceeding or investigation, the Indemnified Parties 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.

(f) The Indemnitor shall be entitled, at its own expense, to participate in and, to the extent it may wish to do so, assume the defence of any Claim, provided such defence is conducted by counsel of good standing acceptable to the Underwriters. Upon the Indemnitor notifying the Underwriters in writing of its election to assume the defence and retaining counsel, the Indemnitor shall not be liable to an Indemnified Party for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by it in connection with such defence. If such defence is not assumed by the Indemnitor, the Indemnified Parties, throughout the course thereof, shall provide copies of all relevant documentation to the Indemnitor, shall keep the Indemnitor advised of the progress thereof and shall discuss with the Indemnitor all significant actions proposed. If such defence is assumed by the Indemnitor, the Indemnitor throughout the course thereof will provide copies of all relevant documentation to the Indemnified Parties, will keep the Indemnified Parties advised of the progress thereof and will discuss with the Indemnified Parties all significant actions proposed.

(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, any Indemnified Party shall have the right, at the Indemnitor's expense, to separately retain counsel of such Indemnified Party's choice, in respect of the defence of any Claim if: (i) the employment of such counsel has been authorized by the Indemnitor; or (ii) the Indemnitor has not assumed the defence and employed counsel therefor promptly after receiving notice of such Claim; or (iii) counsel retained by the Indemnitor or the Indemnified Party has advised the Indemnified Party that representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate for any reason, including for the reason that there may be legal defences available to the Indemnified Party which are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnitor or that there is a conflict of interest between the Indemnitor and the Indemnified Party or the subject matter of the Claim may not fall within the indemnity set forth herein (in any of which events the Indemnitor shall not have the right to assume or direct the defence on such Indemnified Party's behalf), provided that the Indemnitor shall not be responsible for the fees or expenses of more than one legal firm in any single jurisdiction for all of the Indemnified Parties.

(h) No admission of liability, no settlement of any Claim, no compromise nor any consent to the entry of any judgement shall be made by the Indemnitor or the affected Indemnified Party without the prior written consent of the other such party affected, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

(i) The Indemnitor hereby acknowledges that the Lead Underwriter acts as trustee for the other Indemnified Parties of the Indemnitor's covenants under the indemnity described in this Section 11 and the Indemnified Parties agree to accept such trust and to hold and enforce such covenants on behalf of such persons.

42


(j) The indemnity and contribution obligations of the Indemnitor under this Section 11 shall be in addition to any liability which the Indemnitor may otherwise have, shall extend upon the same terms and conditions to Indemnified Parties and shall be binding upon and enure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Indemnitor and any Indemnified Party. The foregoing provisions shall survive any termination of this Agreement or the completion of professional services rendered under this Agreement.

(k) To the extent that a Purchaser of FT Shares would otherwise be covered by this indemnity, this Section 11 shall not apply to such Purchaser if it would cause the FT Shares of such Purchaser to be "prescribed shares", within the meaning of section 6202.1 of the regulations to the Tax Act.

  1. Obligations of the Underwriters to be Several. The sale of the FT Shares in connection with the Offering shall be as to the following percentages:
Underwriter Syndicate Position
Stifel Nicolaus Canada inc. [Redacted]
Cormark Securities Inc. [Redacted]
CIBC World Markets Inc. [Redacted]

If any one of the Underwriters shall not complete the purchase and sale of its applicable percentage of the aggregate amount of the FT Shares at the Closing Time for any reason whatsoever, the other Underwriters shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to purchase the FT Shares which would otherwise have been purchased by the Underwriter which fails to purchase. If, with respect to the FT Shares, the non-defaulting Underwriter elects not to exercise such rights to assume the entire obligations of the defaulting Underwriter, then the Company shall have the right to terminate its obligations hereunder without liability except in respect of its indemnity and expense obligations in respect of the non-defaulting Underwriter. Nothing in this Section 12 shall oblige the Company to sell to the Underwriters less than all of the FT Shares or shall relieve an Underwriter in default hereunder from liability to the Company.

  1. Action by Underwriters. All steps which must or may be taken by the Underwriters in connection with this Agreement, with the exception of the matters relating to termination contemplated by Section 8 or matters relating to indemnity and contribution contemplated by Section 11, may be taken by the Lead Underwriter, on behalf of themselves and the Underwriters, and the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company and the Underwriters shall constitute the Company's authority for accepting any notice, request, direction, certificate, consent or other communication from the Lead Underwriter and for delivering the FT Shares by electronic deposits or otherwise to, or to the order of, the Lead Underwriter. The Lead Underwriter agrees to consult with the other Underwriters with respect to all material matters. The rights and obligations of the Underwriters under this Agreement shall be several and not joint nor joint and several.

  2. Advertisements. The Company acknowledges that the Underwriters shall have the right, at their own expense, to place such advertisement or advertisements relating to the Offering contemplated herein as the Underwriters may consider desirable or appropriate and as may be permitted by applicable law, including Securities Laws. The Company and the Underwriters each agree that they will not make or publish any advertisement in any

43


media whatsoever relating to, or otherwise publicize, the transaction provided for herein so as to result in any exemption from the prospectus and registration requirements of the Securities Laws.

  1. Underwriters' Commission. In consideration of the services to be rendered by the Underwriters in connection with the Offering, the Company shall pay the Underwriters a cash commission equal to 6.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds realized by the Company in respect of the sale of the FT Shares pursuant to the Offering (the "Commission"). In addition, the Company shall issue to the Underwriters such number of broker warrants of the Company (the "Broker Warrants") as is equal to 6.0% of the aggregate number of FT Shares sold pursuant to the Offering. Each Broker Warrant shall entitle the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share (a "Broker Warrant Share") at an exercise price of $2.12 per Broker Warrant Share until the date which is 24 months following the Closing Date, subject to adjustment in certain events. The obligation of the Company to pay the Commission and issue the Broker Warrants shall arise at the Closing Time.
