Rio Alto LOI:
Under the terms of the LOI, Rio Alto will have the option to acquire up to a 51% interest in Sancos within a three year period by incurring US$4.5 million expenditures at the minimum rate of US$1.5 million a year and by paying Santa Barbara US$250,000 on signing the LOI as well as US$500,000 not later than at the 51% option exercise date (the “51% Program”). Completion of the first year of the 51% Program, including a minimum 5,000 metre drilling program, is a firm commitment. The purpose of the 51% Program is to carry out exploration on the Sancos project with a view to identifying and defining mineral resources of sufficient magnitude to justify on a commercially reasonable basis the undertaking of preliminary economic assessment (scoping study) of the Sancos project in compliance with NI 43-101.
Rio Alto may earn an additional 15% interest in the Sancos project within the subsequent two year period by undertaking all necessary actions required to prepare Sancos for a production decision, including obtaining all required permits from the applicable Peruvian government authorities and preparing a feasibility study in respect of the Sancos project in compliance with the requirements of NI 43-101. Rio Alto will pay a further US$500,000 to Santa Barbara upon its acquisition of the 15% interest.
