Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, the Issuer agreed: (i) to nominate and solicit proxies for a slate of nine (9) nominees to the Board at the 2012 annual general and special meeting of shareholders of the Issuer to be held on October 5, 2012 (the “2012 Annual Meeting”), which slate shall include Peter Barnes and Richard Clark (the “MISV Nominees”) and seven existing members of the Board, each with a term expiring at the Issuer’s 2013 annual meeting of shareholders (the “2013 Annual Meeting”); (ii) to nominate and solicit proxies for a slate of not more than nine (9) nominees to the Board at the 2013 Annual Meeting, which slate shall include the MISV Nominees or any replacement nominees appointed in accordance with the provisions of the Settlement Agreement; and (iii) that if either of the MISV Nominees is unable to serve, resigns or is removed prior to the 2013 Annual Meeting or is unable or unwilling to continue as a director of the Issuer following the 2013 Annual Meeting and at such time Mason Hill, EAM, Equinox Partners, Mason Hill Partners, Illiquid GP, Illiquid and Mr. Fieler (together, the “Mason Hill Entities”) beneficially own, in the aggregate, at least 70% of the shares of Common Stock they owned collectively as of the date of the Settlement Agreement, then the Mason Hill Entities will be entitled to nominate a substitute individual acceptable to the Board, and if the Board, acting reasonably, does not accept such a substitute individual, the Mason Hill Entities will have the right to recommend additional substitute individual(s) for consideration by the Board, each to be appointed to the Board no later than five (5) business days after Board acceptance.
 
The Issuer further agreed that: (i) the directors of the Board shall remain unchanged prior to the 2012 Annual Meeting; (ii) if the MISV Group has supplied the Issuer with certain information regarding the MISV Nominees by September 7, 2012, the 2012 Annual Meeting shall not be adjourned or postponed, unless the Board acting in good faith and in the exercise of its fiduciary duty, determines that such adjournment or postponement is reasonably necessary and obtains the prior written consent of the MISV Group, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; (iii) the only matters presented by the Issuer for consideration at the 2012 Annual Meeting shall be the election of directors, the appointment of the Issuer’s independent registered public accounting firm and the approval of the advance notice policy adopted on August 23, 2012; and (iv) the size of the Board shall not be increased to more than nine (9) directors prior to the termination of the Settlement Agreement.
 
Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, the MISV Group agreed that all of the members of the MISV Group and their respective Affiliates (as that term is defined in the Settlement Agreement) shall: (i) immediately cease soliciting proxies from, and shall not otherwise influence the conduct of or voting by the shareholders of the Issuer in connection with the 2012 Annual Meeting; (ii) vote all voting securities they are entitled to vote at the 2012 Annual Meeting (other than the shares of Common Stock issued to members of the MISV Group pursuant to the private placement completed by the Issuer on September 5, 2012) in favour of the election of each of the nominees to the Board proposed by management for election in accordance with the provisions of the Settlement Agreement at the 2012 Annual Meeting and in favour of approval of the advance notice policy adopted on August 23, 2012; (iii) vote all voting securities they are entitled to vote at the 2013 Annual Meeting (other than the shares of Common Stock issued to members of the MISV Group pursuant to the private placement completed by the Issuer on September 5, 2012) in favour of the election of each of the nominees to the Board proposed by management for election in accordance with the provisions of the Settlement Agreement as well as the renewal of the Issuer’s Shareholder Rights Plan in its current form at the 2013 Annual Meeting; and (iv) otherwise take any and all steps to required to vote all the voting securities of the Issuer beneficially owned by them in favour of the election of the nominees to the Board proposed by management for each of the 2012 Annual Meeting and the 2013 Annual Meeting.
 
In addition, the MISV Group agreed, from the date of the Settlement Agreement through the conclusion of the 2013 Annual Meeting, that neither the members of the MISV Group nor any of their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents or other persons acting on their behalf, directly or indirectly, will do any of the following, without the prior written consent of the Issuer: (i) solicit proxies, or engage in, participate in, or in any way initiate, directly or indirectly, any solicitation of shareholders of the Issuer to vote any voting securities of the Issuer on any matter, except as expressly provided in the Settlement Agreement; (ii) the Mason Hill Entities will not acquire or agree to acquire, or make any proposal to acquire more than 15% of the then-outstanding shares of Common Stock or form a group or otherwise work jointly or in concert with any person so that their aggregate beneficial ownership together with such person would exceed 15% of the then-outstanding shares of Common Stock; (iii) deposit any shares of the Issuer in any voting trust or subject any shares of the Issuer to any arrangement or agreement with respect to the voting of any such shares, except as contemplated in the Settlement Agreement; (iv) seek, alone or in concert with others, to requisition a meeting of shareholders of the Issuer, to obtain representation on, or nominate or propose the nomination of any candidate for election to, the Board, except as expressly set forth in the Settlement Agreement, or to effect the removal of any member of the Board or otherwise alter the composition of the Board; (v) submit any shareholder proposal pursuant to Division 7 of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia); or (vi) advise, assist or encourage or negotiate with any other person to take any action inconsistent with the foregoing.
