This modification significantly improves the company's commercial terms and de-risks the acquisition of the Brewer Gold-Copper Project. Reasoning: The amendment significantly improves cash flow management by deferring a US$27M payment and providing non-cash assurance options, materially de-risking the acquisition. - Positive factor: Improved commercial terms for property acquisition - Positive factor: Deferred purchase price payments until permitting - Positive factor: Non-cash financial assurance options - Positive factor: De-risking of the Brewer Gold-Copper Project Facts used in scoring: 6 ## Classification and evidence **QP/CP Signed** Polarity: positive Definition: Qualified Person \(QP\) or Competent Person \(CP\) named and signed off — a member of a recognized professional association \(e.g., AusIMM, SME, AIG, P.Geo\) with relevant experience.
