Other Commitments

Paramount has an agreement to acquire 44 mining claims (“Cryla Claims”) covering 589 acres located immediately to the west of the proposed Grassy Mountain site from Cryla LLC. Paramount is obligated to make annual lease payments of $40,000 per year for the first two years of the lease term commencing in 2018 and $60,000 per year thereafter with an option to purchase the Cryla Claims for $560,000 at any time. The term of the agreement is 25 years. In the event Paramount exercises its option to acquire the Cryla Claims, all annual payments shall be credited against a production royalty that will be based on a prevailing price of the metals produced from the Cryla Claims. The royalty rate ranges between 2% and 4% based on the daily price of gold. The agreement with Cryla can be terminated by Paramount at any time. All lease payments under the agreement are up-to-date and no other payments were made during the nine-month period ended March 31, 2022. The Cryla Claims are without known mineral reserves and there is no current exploratory work being performed.

Nevada Select will retain a 2% NSR on the Frost Claims and Paramount has the right to reduce the NSR to 1% for a payment of $1 million. For the nine-month period ended March 31, 2022, the Company has made all required payments under the agreement. The Frost Claims are without known mineral reserves.
