(b) Tax Allocation. Sailfish shall cause to be provided to Mako US and Mako Mt. Hamilton Holding LLC's proposed allocation of the purchase price for the Company Interests (plus any assumed liabilities and other relevant items treated as having been paid for the Company Interests) paid by Sailfish, as nominee, agent and bare trustee for Mako US, among Company Assets based on the relative fair market values of such Company Assets (the "Allocation") within 120 days following the Second Closing Date, and Mako US and/or Mako shall respond within 90 days of receipt, providing either (i) its acceptance of such proposed Allocation or (ii) any objections, in which case Mako US and Mako shall also provide its determination of the Allocation and other applicable items.

6.7 Specific Performance

The Parties agree that irreparable harm may occur, for which Damages may not be an adequate remedy at Law, in the event that any of the covenants or agreements of the Parties in this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached. Accordingly, the Parties agree that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach of any covenant or agreement of this Agreement by a Party, the other applicable Party shall be entitled, without the requirement of posting a bond or other security, to equitable relief, including injunctive relief, specific performance or other equitable relief. Each Party agrees not to object or raise any objection to the granting of injunctive or other equitable relief on the basis that there exists an adequate remedy at Law, or to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by any other Party, and to specifically enforce the terms of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, this Agreement. Such remedies shall not be the exclusive remedies for any breach or threatened breach of any covenant or agreement of this Agreement, but shall be in addition to all other remedies that may be available at Law or equity to each of the Parties and, in the event that injunctive relief, specific performance or other applicable equitable remedy is not available from a court of competent jurisdiction, Damages may be sought by any Party in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

6.8 Reclamation Bonds

(a) Notice of any Claim under this Article 8 based on any inaccuracy or breach of a representation or warranty must be given prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period related to the representation and warranty as set forth in Section 8.1 or 8.2, as the case may be, and any Claim not made within such period shall be of no force or effect and shall not give rise to any obligation of the Indemnifying Party to indemnify or save harmless any Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, before the close of business on the last day of the applicable claims period set forth above, an Indemnifying Party shall have been notified in writing of a Claim for indemnity under this Agreement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and such Claim shall not have been finally resolved or disposed of at such date, such Claim shall continue to survive and shall remain a basis for indemnity under this Agreement until such Claim is finally resolved or disposed of in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(b) No Damages may be recovered from any Indemnifying Party for indemnification with respect to Claims under Section 8.3(a) or Section 8.4(a), as the case may be, unless and until the accumulated aggregate amount of Damages of the Indemnified Parties, arising pursuant to Section 8.3(a) or Section 8.4(a), as the case may be, exceeds $100,000 (the "Basket") in which event the accumulated aggregate amount of all such Damages may be recovered up to the Indemnification Cap. The aggregate amount that all Indemnified Parties under Section 8.3 or Section 8.4, as the case may be, shall be entitled to claim under the indemnities contained in Section 8.3(a) or Section 8.4(a), as the case may be, shall not, in the aggregate, exceed $Error! Bookmark not defined.,000,000 (the "Indemnification Cap"); provided that, solely in cases of breaches of the Sailfish Fundamental Representations, the Mako Fundamental Representations


  • 34 -

or Claims involving fraud, gross negligence or wilful misconduct, the Basket shall not apply and the Indemnification Cap will be increased up to, but in no event in excess of, the Stream and Royalty Purchase Amount.

(c) If an Indemnified Party receives insurance proceeds with respect to a Claim for which such Indemnified Party has been indemnified pursuant to this Article 8, the Indemnified Party shall pay to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to the lesser of:

(i) the amount paid to the Indemnified Party by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Article 8 with respect to such Claim; and
(ii) the amount of the insurance proceeds received by the Indemnified Party with respect to such Claim (net of any costs of collection and retrospective premium adjustments, premium increases and similar charges actually paid by the Indemnified Party to the applicable insurer(s) to the extent that such costs and other charges relate to such Claim).

8.6 Notice of Claim

(a) A Party that may be entitled to make a claim for indemnification (an "Indemnification Claim") under this Agreement (the "Indemnified Party") shall give written notification to each other Party (each the "Indemnifying Party") of such Indemnification Claim (a "Notice of Claim") promptly upon becoming aware of the Indemnification Claim, but in no event later than the relevant date, if any, specified in Section 8.1 or 8.2, as the case may be. The Notice of Claim shall specify whether the Indemnification Claim arises as a result of a Claim by a third party against the Indemnified Party (a "Third Party Claim") or whether the Indemnification Claim does not so arise (a "Direct Claim"), and shall also specify with reasonable particularity, to the extent that the information is available, the factual basis for the Indemnification Claim and the amount of the Indemnification Claim.

(b) If an Indemnified Party fails to provide the Indemnifying Party with a Notice of Claim promptly as required by Section 8.6(a), the Indemnifying Party shall be relieved of the obligation to pay damages to the extent it can show that it was materially prejudiced in its defence of the Indemnification Claim or in proceeding against a third party who would have been liable to it but for the fact of the delay, but the failure to provide such Notice of Claim promptly shall not otherwise release the Indemnifying Party from its obligations under this Article 8.

(c) If the date by which a Notice of Claim must be given as set out in Section 8.1 or 8.2, as applicable, in respect of a breach of representation and warranty has passed without any Notice of Claim having been given to the Indemnifying Party, then the related Claim shall be forever extinguished, notwithstanding that by the date specified in Section 8.1 or 8.2, as applicable, the Indemnified Party did not know, and in the exercise of reasonable care could not have known, of the existence of the Indemnification Claim.

8.7 Direct Claims

With respect to any Direct Claim, following receipt of notice from the Indemnified Party of the Indemnification Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have 45 days to make such investigation of the Indemnification Claim as is considered necessary or desirable. For the purpose of such investigation, the Indemnified Party shall make available to the Indemnifying Party the information relied upon by the Indemnified Party to substantiate the Indemnification


  • 35 -

Claim, together with all such other information as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request. If all Parties agree at or prior to the expiration of such 45-day period (or any mutually agreed upon extension of such period) to the validity and amount of such Indemnification Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall immediately pay to the Indemnified Party the full agreed-upon amount of the Indemnification Claim, failing which the Indemnified Party is free to pursue all rights and remedies available to it, subject to this Agreement.

8.8 Third Party Claims

(a) Subject to Section 8.8(d), upon receiving a Notice of Claim, the Indemnifying Party may participate in the investigation and defence of the Third Party Claim, and may also elect to assume the investigation and defence of the Third Party Claim with counsel satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, acting reasonably; provided that the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume such investigation and defense, and shall pay the fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party, if the Third Party Claim involves a claim that, in the good faith judgment of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party failed or is failing to vigorously prosecute or defend. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in any such defense. The Indemnified Party shall have the right, at its own cost and expense, to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party's right to control the defense thereof.

(b) In order to assume the investigation and defence of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party must give the Indemnified Party written notice of its election within 20 days of the Indemnifying Party's receipt of the Notice of Claim.

(c) Subject to Section 8.8(d), if the Indemnifying Party assumes the investigation and defence of a Third Party Claim:

(i) the Indemnifying Party will pay for all reasonable costs and expenses of the investigation and defence of the Third Party Claim except that the Indemnifying Party will not, so long as it diligently conducts such defence, be liable to the Indemnified Party for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defence of the Third Party Claim, incurred by the Indemnified Party after the date the Indemnifying Party validly exercised its right to assume the investigation and defence of the Third Party Claim;

(ii) the Indemnifying Party will reimburse the Indemnified Party for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the investigation and defence of the Third Party Claim prior to the date the Indemnifying Party validly exercised its right to assume the investigation and defence of the Third Party Claim; and

(iii) if the Indemnifying Party thereafter fails to defend the Third Party Claim within a reasonable time, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to assume such defense and the Indemnifying party shall be bound by the results obtained by the Indemnified Party with respect to the Third Party Claim.

(d) Where the named parties to any Third Party Claim include the Indemnified Party as well as the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party determines in good faith, based on advice from its legal counsel, that joint representation would be inappropriate due to the actual or


  • 36 -

potential differing interests between them or there may be one or more legal defences available to the Indemnified Party which are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to retain separate counsel, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defence of such Third Party Claim on behalf of the Indemnified Party but shall be liable to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel of the Indemnified Party.

(e) If the Indemnified Party undertakes the defence of the Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party will not be bound by any compromise or settlement of the Third Party Claim effected without the consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(f) The Indemnifying Party will not be permitted to compromise and settle or to cause a compromise and settlement of a Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless:

(i) the terms of the compromise and settlement require only the payment of money for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to full indemnification under this Agreement and the Indemnifying Party agrees to timely pay such amount in full;

(ii) the Indemnified Party is not required to admit any wrongdoing, take or refrain from taking any action, acknowledge any rights of the Person making the Third Party Claim or waive any rights that the Indemnified Party may have against the Person making the Third Party Claim; and

(iii) in the case of a Third Party Claim related to Taxes, the terms of the compromise or settlement would not reasonably be expected to cause a material increase in the Tax liability of the Indemnified Party and its affiliates for a taxable period ending after the Second Closing Date.

8.9 Materiality

For the sole purpose of calculating the amount of any Damages that are the subject of a Claim for indemnification under Section 8.3(a) or Section 8.4(a) (and not for determining whether or not any breaches of representations or warranties have occurred), any reference to "materiality", "Material Adverse Effect", or other similar qualification or limitation in any representation or warranty applicable to such Claim will be disregarded.

8.10 Right to Recovery and Offset

No amounts will be payable pursuant to any Claim pursuant to this Article 8 unless and until the earlier of such time as such amounts have been (a) agreed to in writing by the Indemnifying Party, or (b) finally adjudicated to be payable and non-appealable by a court of competent jurisdiction. Once an ascertained amount of any Damages is agreed to by the Indemnifying Party, or finally adjudicated to be payable and non-appealable by a court of competent jurisdiction, as the case may be, pursuant to this Article 8, the Indemnifying Party will satisfy its obligations within five Business Days of such written agreement of the Indemnifying Party or final, non-appealable adjudication, as the case may be, by wire transfer of immediately available funds.


  • 37 -

8.11 Duty to Mitigate

Nothing in this Agreement in any way restricts or limits the general obligation at Law of an Indemnified Party to take reasonable steps to mitigate any loss which it may suffer or incur by reason of the breach or failure to perform of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of the Indemnifying Party under this Agreement. If any claim can be reduced by any recovery, settlement or otherwise under or pursuant to any insurance coverage, or pursuant to any claim, recovery, settlement or payment by or against any other Person, the Indemnified Party shall take all reasonable steps to enforce such recovery, settlement or payment and the amount of any Damages of the Indemnified Party will be reduced by the amount actually recovered by the Indemnified Party (net of collection expenses).

8.12 Adjustment to Purchase Price

Any payment made by Sailfish as an Indemnifying Party to Mako US and/or Mako pursuant to Article 8 will constitute a dollar-for-dollar decrease in the Stream and NSR Payment Amount, and any payment made by Mako US and/or Mako as an Indemnifying Party to Sailfish pursuant to Article 8 will constitute a dollar-for-dollar increase in the Stream and NSR Payment Amount.

8.13 Exclusivity

Except as provided in Section 8.11, neither Party may make any Claim for Damages in respect of this Agreement, or in respect of any breach or termination of this Agreement, against the other Party except by making a Claim pursuant to and in accordance with Article 8. The provisions of this Section 8.13 and Article 8 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
