As compensation for his services, Mr. Martin will receive 1,500,000 shares of Company common stock valued at a 50% discount to the trailing twenty day Company common stock average price from the date of Board approval of such compensation package, totaling $11,835 ("Initial Compensation").

In addition, Mr. Martin will be eligible to receive 1,500,000 warrants to purchase Company common stock upon the acquisition of $200,000 in financing for the Company or in connection with a property transaction related to the Mineral Ridge mining property, or the retirement of up to $500,000 of the Company's existing debt, that are a result of Mr. Martin's efforts ("Subsequent Compensation"). Pursuant to the Agreement, the warrants associated with the Subsequent Compensation will vest pro-rata as efforts are made to secure the $200,000 financing, the property transaction or $500,000 debt reduction, respectively, and will have an exercise price of $0.0079.

Furthermore, for all financing obtained by Mr. Martin's efforts resulting in the Company receiving at least $200,000, the completion of a property transaction or resulting in the retirement of the Company's existing debt in excess of $500,000, Mr. Martin will be eligible for certain additional compensation to be determined by the Company's Board of Directors, payable in cash or in restricted Company common stock at a 20% discount to the closing market price of the Company's common stock at the time of closing.

The Company has agreed that it will use its best efforts to register the stock issued in connection with the Initial Compensation pursuant to an applicable registration statement filed with the SEC.
