Shares shall be equal to the closing price of the Common Shares on the Exchange on the last trading
day immediately prior to the date of issuance , subject to applicable securities laws and Exchange
policies.

➢ No interest shall accrue on any step-up amount for any period prior to its effective date of that
step-up; and
➢ For clarity purposes, until all the debt is paid off or retired, the Note Holder will have a security
registered against the Golden Arrow Property. Fairchild will have the ability to repay or retire
the Note in part or in full at its discretion at any time, including accrued interest, prior to the
Maturity Date.
Royalty
• Emergent shall retain a 0.5% net smelter return royalty (the “Royalty”) on the Property. Fairchild shall
have the option of acquiring the royalty by paying Emergent US$1,000,000 prior to the fourth
anniversary of the Definitive Agreement. Fairchild shall have the option of acquiring the Royalty by
paying Emergent US$1,500,000 if exercised between the fourth and seventh anniversar ies of the
Definitive Agreement. The buyout rights expire after the seventh anniversary of the Definitive
Agreement.
Any advance minimum royalty payments due from Emergent to third parties prior to signing of the
Definitive Agreement shall be put in escrow until payments are made to the third parties from the escrow
account. Fairchild shall fund a US$40,000 reclamation bond payment upon execution of the Definitive
Agreement and Exchange approval. Upon signing the Definitive Agreement, Fairchild shall become
responsible for BLM and County claim maintenance fees, property taxes, royalty payments, and any other
holding costs going forward from that date. Emergent and Fairchild contemplate completing the Definitive
Agreement within 30 days of signing the MOU. The Transaction is subject to all necessary approvals,
including regulatory approval. Fairchild is an arm's-length party, and no finder’s fees are being paid as part
of the Transaction.
David Watkinson, President and CEO of Emergent, stated, “The disposition of the Golden Arrow asset for
cash, shares, a senior secured note, and royalty interest monetizes Golden Arrow in the short, medium, and
long-term. Emergent will initially receive up-front cash and share payments. Emergent will then receive
ongoing interest payments throughout the term of the Note and the eventual payment of the Note principal.
There is f urther potential long-term upside from the Royalty. The step-up of the Note principal in years
four and five acts as an incentive for the potential early payment of the Note. If the Note is not paid or if
other conditions of the transaction are not met, Emergent has the ability to take the Property back. Emergent
management believes that Fairchild can advance Golden Arrow through its next stages of development and
ultimately towards production. It is a perfect time for Fairchild to take advantage of high metal prices, the
U.S. government’s support of mining projects, and a resurgence of investor interest in gold projects.”
