Stock Option Plans and Other Incentive Plans

The Company has no other incentive plans other than its 10% rolling stock option plan (the “ Option Plan ”) whereby the maximum number of common shares that may be reserved for issuance pursuant to such plan will not exceed 10% of the issued shares of the Company at the time of the stock option grant.

The purpose of the Option Plan is to provide the Company with a share related mechanism to enable the Company to attract, retain and motivate qualified directors, officers, employees and other service providers, to reward directors, officers, employees and other service providers for their contribution toward the long term goals of the Company and to enable and encourage such individuals to acquire shares of the Company as long term investments.

The following information is intended to be a brief description of the Option Plan:

• (a) To be eligible for the issuance of a stock option under the Option Plan an optionee must either be a director, employee (including an officer) or consultant of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company or a company owned by an employee, director or consultant at the time the option is granted. Options may be granted only to an individual or to a company that is owned by individuals eligible for an option grant.

• (b) The options granted pursuant to the Option Plan will be exercisable at a price which is not lower than the market value of the Company’s Shares at the time the option is granted less any applicable discounts permitted by the applicable regulatory authorities. "Market Value" will be the closing trading price of the Company’s Shares on the Exchange or such other stock exchange upon which the common shares are listed on the trading day immediately preceding the date of the grant of the option.

• (c) Options granted under the Option Plan will be granted for a term not to exceed ten years from the date of their grant. All options will terminate on the earlier of the expiry of their term and the date of termination of an option holder's employment, engagement or position with the Company if terminated for just cause or on other bases as set out in the Option Plan, otherwise 90 days following termination of employment or cessation of the option holder’s position with the Company.

• (d) The Company’s Board may, at their discretion, impose vesting provisions on Options granted under the Option Plan. Notwithstanding any vesting schedule to which Options are subject, Options shall cease to vest immediately if the employment or engagement of an Option Holder as an Employee or Consultant or the position of an Option Holder as a director or officer of the Company or a Subsidiary is terminated for any reason whatsoever. In which case, the Option Holder may only exercise such number of Options that are vested as at the date of termination of such Option Holder’s employment, engagement or appointment as a director or officer.

• (e) Options will also be non-assignable and non-transferable; provided that they will be exercisable by an option holder's legal heirs or personal representatives, subject to the expiry date of such option, for up to 12 months following the death or termination of an option holder due to disability, and up to 12 months following the death of an option holder terminated for disability within the previous 12 months.

• (f) The number of common shares of the Company reserved for issuance to any one person on a yearly basis cannot exceed 5% of the number of issued and outstanding common shares of the Company at the time of the grant of options, unless the Company has obtained disinterested shareholder approval as required by the Exchange. The aggregate number of options granted to employees or consultants engaged in investor relations activities must not exceed 2% of the outstanding issue in any 12 month period and such options must vest in stages over 12 months with no more than 25% of the options vesting in any three month period.

• (g) In the event that the expiration date of Options granted under the Option Plan falls in a period during which the Company has imposed a restriction on its directors, officers, employees and consultants from trading in securities

of the Company, the expiry date of such Options will be extended for a period of time ending on the tenth business day after the expiry of the Black-Out to provide such Option Holders with an extension to the right to exercise such Options, so long as the expiry date does not exceed ten years from the date of grant of such Options.

• (h) If a material alteration in the capital structure of the Company occurs as a result of a consolidation, subdivision, conversion, exchange, reclassification or otherwise, the Board shall make adjustments to the Option Plan and to the options then outstanding under it as the Board determines to be appropriate and equitable under the circumstances, unless the Board determines that it is not practicable or feasible to do so, in which event the options granted under the Option Plan will terminate as set forth above.

• (i) The Board may amend the terms of the Option Plan or the terms and conditions of any option thereafter to be granted, subject to approval of any stock exchange on which the Company is listed, provided that where such amendment relates to an existing option and it would materially decrease the rights or benefits accruing to an option holder or materially increase the obligations of an option holder, then, unless otherwise excepted out by a provision of the Option Plan, the Board must also obtain the written consent of the option holder in question to such amendment. If at the time the exercise price of an option is reduced the option holder is an insider of the Company, the insider must not exercise the option at the reduced exercise price until the reduction in exercise price has been approved by the disinterested shareholders of the Company.

Employment, Consulting and Management Agreements

No management functions of the Company are, to any substantial degree, performed by a person or company other than the directors or NEOs of the Company.

Oversight and Description of Director and NEO Compensation

Compensation, Philosophy and Objectives

The Board meets to discuss and determine management compensation, without reference to formal objectives, criteria or analysis. The general objectives of the Company’s compensation strategy are to (a) compensate management in a manner that encourages and rewards a high level of performance and outstanding results with a view to increasing long-term shareholder value; (b) align management’s interests with the long-term interests of shareholders; and (c) ensure that the total compensation package is designed in a manner that takes into account the constraints that the Company is under by virtue of the fact that it is a junior mineral exploration company without a history of earnings.

The Board, as a whole, ensures that total compensation paid to all Named Executive Officers (or NEOs), as hereinafter defined, is fair and reasonable. The Board as a whole recommends levels of executive compensation that are competitive, motivating and commensurate with the time spent by executive officers in meeting their obligations. While the Board does not have direct experience related to executive compensation, the Board relies on their experience as officers and directors.

Analysis of Elements

Base salary is used to provide the NEOs a set amount of money during the year with the expectation that each NEO will perform his responsibilities to the best of his ability and in the best interests of the Company.

The Company considers the granting of incentive stock options to be a significant component of executive compensation as it allows the Company to reward each NEO’s efforts to increase value for shareholders without requiring the Company to use cash from its treasury. Stock options are generally awarded to executive officers at the commencement of employment and periodically thereafter. The terms and conditions of the Company’s stock option grants, including vesting provisions and exercise prices, are governed by the terms of the Company’s Option Plan. A description of the significant terms of the Option Plan is found under the heading “ Stock Option Plans and Other Incentive Plans ”.

The Company does not determine executive compensation based on the share price performance. Overall the salaries or consulting fees payable to the NEOs, in particular to the Company’s CEO, have had a minor upward trend in order to provide competitive levels of compensation necessary to attract and maintain executive talent.

The Board has considered the implications of the risks associated with the Company's compensation practices. The Board acknowledges that the Company, as a junior natural resource company, does not presently generate any revenues, and that all management compensation to date has been derived solely from cash in the Company's treasury, acquired by way of equity financings to date, and the grant of incentive stock options to directors, management, contractors and employees. Salary compensation to the NEOs is provided for under verbal understandings or written consulting agreements with the NEOs or management companies under their control. Upon the occurrence of certain events, the Company's early termination of these contracts may also trigger additional balloon payments, which could adversely impact the Company's working capital.

Option-Based Awards

The Company has no long-term incentive plans other than the Option Plan. The Company’s directors, employees, officers and certain consultants are entitled to participate in the Option Plan. The Option Plan is designed to encourage share ownership and entrepreneurship on the part of the senior management and other employees. The Board believes that the Option Plan aligns the interests of the NEOs and the Board with shareholders by linking a component of executive compensation to the longer term performance of the Company’s common shares.

Options are granted by the Board. In monitoring or adjusting the option allotments, the Board takes into account its own observations on individual performance (where possible) and its assessment of individual contribution to shareholder value, previous option grants and the objectives set for the NEOs and the Board. The scale of options is generally commensurate to the appropriate level of base compensation for each level of responsibility.

In addition to determining the number of options to be granted pursuant to the methodology outlined above, the Board also makes the following determinations:

• parties who are entitled to participate in the Option Plan;

• the exercise price for each stock option granted, subject to the provision that the exercise price cannot be lower than the prescribed discount permitted by the TSX Venture Exchange (the " Exchange ") from the market price on the date of grant;

• the date on which each option is granted;

• the vesting period, if any, for each stock option;

• the other material terms and conditions of each stock option grant; and

• any re-pricing or amendment to a stock option grant.

The Board makes these determinations subject to and in accordance with the provisions of the Option Plan. The Board reviews and approves grants of options on an annual basis and periodically during a financial year.

There is no restriction on NEOs or Directors regarding the purchase of financial instruments, including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars or units or exchange funds that are designed to hedge or offset a decrease in market value of equity securities granted as compensation or held directly or indirectly by the NEO or Director for the financial year ended April 30, 2020.

No NEO or Director, directly or indirectly, purchased any financial instruments or employed a strategy to hedge or offset a decrease in market value of equity securities granted as compensation or held.

Termination and Change of Control Benefits

The Company does not have any plan contract, agreement or plan or arrangement that provides for payments to a NEO at, following or in connection with any termination (whether voluntary, involuntary or constructive), resignation, a change in control of the Company or a change in the NEO’s responsibilities.

Pension Plan Benefits

The Company does not have any form of pension plan that provides for payments or benefits to the NEOs at, following, or in connection with retirement. The Company does not have any form of deferred compensation plan.
