Swansea and Blackjack agree that Mr. Hansen’s contract with Blackjack will end on January 27, 2025.

In lieu of the terms of Carl Hansen’s termination provisions approved by Blackjack’s Board of Directors in 2024, both Parties agree to the following termination settlement terms and conditions (“Terms”):

● Cash payment of C$150,000 + 13% GST, for all outstanding 2024 monthly payments, to be paid on or before February 21, 2025;

During the period of the Advisory Agreement, Carl Hansen may be issued options or other compensation units as decided by Silver Bow and any Silver Bow options or other compensation units currently issued to Carl Hansen and Swansea will remain in good standing until January 27, 2028.

The Terms, noted above, are in lieu of and replace any termination provisions and obligations owed to Carl Hansen as previously approved by Silver Bow. If the Terms are not fulfilled, Silver Bow will

During the term of this Letter Agreement and any time during the term of the Advisory Agreement, Carl Hansen will not, whether directly or indirectly, in any capacity whatsoever, alone, through or in connection with any entity, carry on or be engaged in or have any financial or other interest in or be otherwise commercially involved in any endeavour, activity or business in Montana which is competitive, in any way, with Silver Bow, without Silver Bow’s expressed written permission.

Release of Claims

Settlement of the Terms by Silver Bow, above, shall be in full and final settlement of any and all actions, causes of actions, suits, claims, demands and entitlements whatsoever which Carl Hansen has or may have against Silver Bow, its affiliates and any of their respective directors, officers, employees, representatives, successors and assigns arising out of the termination of this Letter Agreement.

The fulfillment of the Terms, set out above, shall be in full and final settlement of any and all actions, causes of actions, suits, claims, demands and entitlements whatsoever which Silver Bow has or may have against Carl Hansen or his affiliates arising out of his termination.

Notwithstanding anything else in this Letter Agreement, to the extent Carl Hansen and Swansea Holdings Inc. have authority to do so, this termination and settlement shall not trigger or constitute an event requiring repayment or creating additional obligations under the convertible loan agreement dated February 2, 2024 between Blackjack, Swansea Holdings Inc., SBX Consultores LTDA., and Bruce D.
