1.5	Directors and Officers of the Surviving Corporation; Directors of Tyhee.

(a)

Directors. With effect from the Effective Date all current Santa Fe Directors shall resign from the Santa Fe Board of Directors, and the directors of Tyhee Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time will, from and after the Effective Time, be the directors of the Surviving Corporation until their respective successors have been duly elected or appointed and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation, or removal in accordance with the Surviving Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws.

ARTICLE 2
EFFECT ON SECURITIES

2.1 Santa Fe Common Stock.

(a) Effect on Santa Fe Common Stock.

(i) At the Effective Time, subject to the other provisions of this ARTICLE 2 and Section 3.1, each share of Santa Fe Common Stock (other than shares of Santa Fe Common Stock held in the treasury of Santa Fe or held by Tyhee ) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive: (A) 0.9 (the "Exchange Ratio") of one common share of Tyhee (“Tyhee Common Shares”), and (B) 0.45 of one warrant, with each whole warrant entitling the holder to purchase one (1) Tyhee Common Share at an exercise price of Cd$0.25 per Tyhee Common Share for a period of four (4) years from the Closing Date, on substantially the same terms as Exhibit 2.1(a)(i) hereto, (the “Tyhee Transaction Warrants”). The Tyhee Transaction Warrants shall not vest and become exercisable until such time that Tyhee becomes eligible to file, and does in fact file, a registration statement on Form F-3 or Form S-3 under the Securities Act covering the underlying Tyhee Common Shares; provided that Tyhee shall use its Reasonable Best Efforts to file such registration statement within thirty days of becoming eligible to do so, and shall use its Reasonable Best Efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable thereafter. The Tyhee Common Shares and the Tyhee Transaction Warrants to be issued pursuant to the Merger are collectively referred to as the “Tyhee Securities.”

(ii)

In the event that, subsequent to the date of this Agreement but prior to the Effective Time, the outstanding Tyhee Common Shares or shares of Santa Fe Common Stock are changed into a different number of shares or a different class as a result of a consolidation, stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, combination, exchange, recapitalization or similar transaction, the Exchange Ratio will be adjusted appropriately.

(iii)

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.1(a), no fractional Tyhee Securities will be issued pursuant to the Merger. Any fractional Tyhee Securities will be rounded to the nearest whole Tyhee Securities, and, for greater certainty, fractions of less than one-half (1/2) will be rounded down. Former holders of Santa Fe Common Stock shall not be entitled to receive any consideration with respect to any fractional Tyhee Securities that would otherwise be issuable pursuant to the Merger but are eliminated due to rounding down. No such holder will be entitled to dividends, voting rights or any other shareholder right with respect to any fractional Tyhee Securities that such holder, but for the provisions of this Section 2.1(a)(iii), would be entitled to receive pursuant to the Merger. For purposes of this Section 2.1(a)(iii), shares held of record by a particular stockholder of Santa Fe and represented by two or more share certificates may be aggregated in order to reduce the fractional Tyhee Securities that would otherwise be issuable to such stockholder but for the provisions of this Section 2.1(a)(iii).

- 4 -

(iv)

The Tyhee Securities to be issued upon the conversion of shares of Santa Fe Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) are referred to in this Agreement collectively as the “Merger Consideration”.

(v)

Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 2.1, where Tyhee reasonably determines that the issue of Tyhee Securities in the jurisdiction of a relevant proposed recipient of Tyhee Securities (other than recipients resident in the United States or any jurisdiction to which Tyhee Securities may be issued pursuant to exemptions from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements applicable to public offerings of securities to persons in such jurisdictions) is either prohibited or unduly onerous or impracticable (each such proposed recipient, an “Ineligible Overseas Stockholder”), Tyhee will procure that the Sale Agent will be issued such number of Tyhee Securities as are attributable to the Ineligible Overseas Stockholders as Merger Consideration and will further procure that such Tyhee Securities are sold and the proceeds of sale paid to the Ineligible Overseas Stockholders as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time. The term “Sale Agent” as used in this Agreement means the person nominated by Tyhee to sell the Tyhee Securities that are attributable to the Ineligible Overseas Stockholders under the terms of this Agreement.

(b) No Further Rights. All of the shares of Santa Fe Common Stock converted into the right to receive Merger Consideration pursuant to this ARTICLE 2 automatically will no longer be outstanding, will be cancelled, and will cease to exist. Each holder of (x) a certificate (each a “Certificate”) previously representing any such shares of Santa Fe Common Stock or (y) non-certificated shares of Santa Fe Common Stock represented by book entry (“Book-Entry Shares”) will thereafter cease to have any rights with respect to such shares of Santa Fe Common Stock, except, to the extent provided herein, the right to receive Merger Consideration in accordance with the terms hereof.

2.2	Effect on Santa Fe Options; Santa Fe Warrants and Santa Fe Convertible Debentures.
	(a)	Subject to Section 6.10, unless exercised, each Santa Fe Option outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (including, for greater certainty, any Santa Fe Options then outstanding under the Santa Fe 2007 Equity Incentive Plan and any other current or former stock option plan, program, agreement or arrangement of Santa Fe (collectively, the “Santa Fe Stock Plans”)) will remain outstanding immediately after the Effective Time, unless and until exercised, cancelled, exchanged, or terminated. From and after the Effective Time, subject to the policies of the TSXV, each Santa Fe Option will, but only to the extent permitted by and in accordance with its terms as in effect on the date hereof, entitle the holder thereof to acquire, upon exercise, such number of Tyhee Securities as such holder would have been entitled to acquire as a result of the Merger had the Santa Fe Option been exercised immediately prior to the Effective Time. Santa Fe shall use its Reasonable Best Efforts to reach agreements with such holders of Santa Fe Options as may be appropriate, to amend the terms of their Santa Fe Options to the extent necessary to meet any requirements imposed by the TSXV in respect of such Santa Fe Options.

- 5 -

(b)	Unless exercised, cancelled, exchanged, or terminated pursuant to a Santa Fe Warrant Contract, any Santa Fe Warrant outstanding at the Effective Time will remain outstanding immediately after the Effective Time, unless and until exercised, cancelled, exchanged, or terminated in accordance with its terms. From and after the Effective Time, subject to the policies of the TSXV, each Santa Fe Warrant will, in accordance with its terms as in effect on the date hereof, entitle the holder thereof to acquire, upon exercise, such number of Tyhee Securities as such holder would have been entitled to acquire as a result of the Merger had the Santa Fe Warrant been exercised immediately prior to the Effective Time. Santa Fe shall use its Reasonable Best Efforts to reach agreements with such holders of Santa Fe Warrants as may be appropriate, to amend the terms of their Santa Fe Warrants to the extent necessary to meet any requirements imposed by the TSXV in respect of such Santa Fe Warrants.
(c)	Unless restructured pursuant to the IGS Restructuring, exercised, cancelled, exchanged, or terminated pursuant to a Santa Fe Convertible Debenture, any Santa Fe Convertible Debenture outstanding at the Effective Time will remain outstanding immediately after the Effective Time, unless and until exercised, cancelled, exchanged, or terminated in accordance with its terms. From and after the Effective Time, subject to the policies of the TSXV, each Santa Fe Convertible Debenture will, in accordance with its terms as in effect on the date hereof, entitle the holder thereof to acquire, upon conversion, such number of Tyhee Common Shares such holder would have been entitled to acquire as a result of the Merger had the Santa Fe Convertible Debenture been converted immediately prior to the Effective Time. Santa Fe shall use its Reasonable Best Efforts to reach agreements with such holders of Santa Fe Convertible Debentures as may be appropriate, to amend the terms of their Santa Fe Convertible Debentures to the extent necessary to meet any requirements imposed by the TSXV in respect of such Santa Fe Convertible Debentures.
(d)	At the Effective Time, each share of Santa Fe Common Stock, if any, issued pursuant to any Santa Fe Stock Plan that is subject to transfer limitations or vesting provisions under the terms of such Santa Fe Stock Plan, or under any individual grant agreement pursuant to which such Santa Fe Common Stock was issued or any other agreement between Santa Fe and the holder thereof, will upon conversion thereof into Tyhee Securities pursuant to the Merger continue to be subject to the same transfer limitations and vesting provisions, except as specifically provided in the Santa Fe Stock Plans.
(e)	The board of directors or compensation committee of Santa Fe and Tyhee will grant all approvals and take all other actions reasonably required pursuant to Rule 16b-3(e) under the Securities Exchange Act (and the TSXV Listing Rules (if applicable)), to cause the disposition in the Merger of Santa Fe Common Stock and Santa Fe Options held by affiliates of Santa Fe to be exempt from the provisions of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act, if applicable.

- 6 -

2.3 Effect on Merger Sub Stock.

At the Effective Time, each share of common stock, par value $0.002 per share, of Merger Sub then issued and outstanding will, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Tyhee, Merger Sub, Santa Fe, or the holder thereof, be converted into and become one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.002 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

ARTICLE 3

		(ii)	At the Effective Time and based on the shareholder registry records of Santa Fe and its transfer agent, as provided by Santa Fe to Tyhee, Tyhee shall cause the Exchange Agent to issue and allot to each Record Holder the Merger Consideration as that Record Holder is entitled to receive.
		(iii)	As soon as reasonably practicable following the Effective Time, Tyhee shall mail to each Record Holder a holding statement setting forth the aggregate number of Tyhee Shares issued to such Record Holder under Section 3.1(a)(ii).

(b)	Exchange Procedures.
	(i)	Promptly after the Effective Time, and in any event not later than the second Business Day following the Effective Time, Tyhee shall direct the Exchange Agent, pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, to mail to each holder of record of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share formerly representing shares of Santa Fe Common Stock: (1) a letter of transmittal (each, a “Letter of Transmittal”), which must (A) specify that the method of delivery of each Certificate representing Santa Fe Common Stock, or, in the case of Santa Fe Common Stock represented as a Book-Entry Share, an “agent’s message”, and all other required documents, is at the election and risk of the surrendering holder, and that the delivery will be deemed made only when actually received by the Exchange Agent, and (B) be in customary form and subject to the reasonable approval of Santa Fe prior to the Effective Time; and (2) instructions for effecting the surrender or transfer of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share in exchange for the Merger Consideration payable in respect of the shares of Santa Fe Common Stock represented by such Certificate or Book-Entry Share.

- 7 -

(ii)	Upon (1) in the case of Santa Fe Common Stock represented by a Certificate, surrender of such Certificate for cancellation to the Exchange Agent in accordance with this Section 3.1(b), together with the return of the applicable Letter of Transmittal, properly completed and duly executed, and such other documents as might be required pursuant to the instructions set forth in such Letter of Transmittal or (2) in the case of Santa Fe Common Stock represented as a Book-Entry Share, receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Exchange Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Exchange Agent might reasonably request), and such other documents as might be required pursuant to the instructions set forth in the applicable Letter of Transmittal, the holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share, as the case might be, will thereby be entitled to receive in exchange therefore one or more Tyhee Securities representing, in the aggregate, the whole number of Tyhee Securities, if any, that such Holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(a) (after taking into account all shares of Santa Fe Common Stock then held by such Holder).
(iii)	Promptly after receipt or notification by the Exchange Agent of the surrender or transfer in accordance with Section 3.1(b)(ii), the Exchange Agent will notify Tyhee and Tyhee shall then send or procure the dispatch to each Holder, by pre-paid post to his or her address recorded with Santa Fe at the Effective Time, a holding statement or notice confirming the issue of Tyhee Securities to that Holder representing the total number of Securities to be issued to that Holder in accordance with ARTICLE 2 and this ARTICLE 3.
(iv)	No interest will be paid or accrue on any Merger Consideration that is payable to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares.
(v)	If there is a transfer of ownership of shares of Santa Fe Common Stock prior to the Effective Time that is not registered in the transfer records of Santa Fe, then the Merger Consideration payable in respect of such shares of Santa Fe Common Stock is to be issued or paid to the applicable transferee if (1) the Certificate representing such shares of Santa Fe Common Stock is presented to the Exchange Agent, accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer, and (2) the Person requesting such exchange pays to the Exchange Agent in advance any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the delivery of the Merger Consideration in any name other than that of the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered, or required for any other reason, or establishes to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such tax has been paid or is not payable.
(vi)	Until surrendered or, in the case of any Book-Entry Share, transferred, as contemplated by this Section 3.1(b), each Certificate or Book-Entry Share will be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender or transfer the Merger Consideration payable in respect of the shares of Santa Fe Common Stock represented by such Certificate or Book-Entry Share.

(c) Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Tyhee Securities. No dividends or other distributions declared or made after the Effective Time with respect to Tyhee Securities with a record date after the Effective Time will be paid to the holder of any Certificate that has not been properly surrendered or Book-Entry Share that has not been properly transferred with respect to Tyhee Securities that such holder would be entitled to receive upon proper surrender of such Certificate or transfer of such Book- Entry Share; except that, following the surrender of any such Certificate or transfer of any such Book-Entry Share, Tyhee shall pay to such holder of Tyhee Securities issuable in exchange therefor, without interest, (i) the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such Tyhee Securities, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to such surrender or transfer and a payment date subsequent to such surrender or transfer payable with respect to such Tyhee Securities. For purposes of dividends or other distributions in respect of Tyhee Securities, all Securities to be issued pursuant to the Merger will be entitled to dividends or other distributions pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence as if such Tyhee Securities were issued and outstanding as of the Effective Time.

- 8 -

(e)	No Liability. None of Tyhee, Santa Fe, the Surviving Corporation, the Exchange Agent, or any other Person will be liable to any former holder of shares of Santa Fe Common Stock for any Tyhee Securities (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) delivered to a public official pursuant to any abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.
(f)	Lost Certificates. If any Certificate is lost, stolen, or destroyed (any such Certificate, a “Lost Certificate”) and the Person claiming such Lost Certificate to be lost, stolen, or destroyed signs and delivers to the Exchange Agent an affidavit of that fact and, if required by Tyhee, such Person posts a bond (in such reasonable amount as Tyhee directs) as indemnity against any claim that might be made against the Exchange Agent, Tyhee, or the Surviving Corporation with respect to such Lost Certificate, then the Exchange Agent will so notify Tyhee, and Tyhee will issue, in exchange for such Lost Certificate, the Merger Consideration payable in respect of the shares of Santa Fe Common Stock represented by such Lost Certificate without any interest thereon.
(g)	Withholding. Each of Tyhee, the Surviving Corporation, and the Exchange Agent are entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant hereto to any Holder such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld under any provision of any Law relating to Taxes with respect to the making of such payment or otherwise in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, including Section 2.1(a)(ii).

(a)	the direct or indirect acquisition or disposition of all or any of Santa Fe’s securities;
(b)	any amalgamation, merger, sale of all or any part of its assets, take-over bid, tender offer, plan of arrangement, issuer bid, reorganization, dividend or distribution, recapitalization, liquidation or winding-up of, or other business combination or similar transaction involving Santa Fe and all or any material part of its assets; or
(c)	any other transaction the consummation of which would reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with, prevent or materially delay the Merger (any of (a), (b) or (c) being a “Competing Transaction”);

provided, however that Santa Fe shall not be prohibited from considering, discussing, negotiating or providing any information (including access to its management) to a Third Party in respect of a bona fide unsolicited proposal to the Santa Fe Board or the Santa Fe shareholders, that the Santa Fe Board has (i) determined, in its good faith judgment (after having received the advice of a financial advisor), that such proposal or offer constitutes a Superior Proposal (as defined below), (ii) determined, in its good faith judgment upon the receipt of advice of independent legal counsel, that, in light of such Superior Proposal, the furnishing of such information or entering into discussions is required to comply with its fiduciary obligations to Santa Fe and its shareholders under applicable Law, (iii) provided written notice to Tyhee of its intent to furnish information or enter into discussions with such person at least five (5) Business Days prior to taking any such action, and (iv) obtained from such person an executed confidentiality agreement (it being understood that such confidentiality agreement and any related agreements shall not include any provision calling for any exclusive right to negotiate with such party or having the effect of prohibiting it from satisfying its obligations under this Agreement). Santa Fe shall promptly notify Tyhee (within no more than 48 hours) of the communication or receipt of any information relating to any Competing Transaction, any request for information that could reasonably be expected to be related to a Competing Transaction or any request for discussions or negotiations that could reasonably be expected to be related to a Competing Transaction, indicating, in connection with such notice, the identity of the person making such proposal or request and the material terms and conditions thereof. Santa Fe shall keep Tyhee reasonably informed on a current basis (within no more than 48 hours) of any material developments in the status and terms of such proposal or request (including whether such Competing Transaction proposal has been withdrawn or rejected and any material change to the terms thereof) and shall concurrently provide Tyhee with copies of any material written information or materials that it provides to the person making the request therefor that have not previously been provided to Tyhee.

- 44 -

Except as set forth in this Section 6.2, the Santa Fe Board (or any committee thereof) shall not approve or recommend, or cause or permit Santa Fe to enter into any letter of intent, agreement or obligation with respect to, any Competing Transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Santa Fe Board determines, in its good faith judgment prior to receipt of approval of the Merger from its shareholders and after receipt of legal advice of independent legal counsel, that it is required to do so to comply with its fiduciary obligations under applicable Law, the Santa Fe Board may recommend a Superior Proposal, but only (i) after providing written notice to the Tyhee Board (a “Notice of Superior Proposal”) advising it that the Santa Fe Board has received a Superior Proposal, specifying the material terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal and identifying the person making such Superior Proposal and indicating that the Santa Fe Board intends to approve or recommend, or cause or permit Santa Fe to enter into any letter of intent, agreement or obligation with respect to the Superior Proposal and the manner in which it intends (or may intend) to do so (any such action, an “Adverse Recommendation Change”), and (ii) if Tyhee does not, within five (5) Business Days of its receipt of the Notice of Superior Proposal, make an offer that the Santa Fe Board determines, in its good faith judgment (after having received the advice of a financial advisor) to be at least as favorable to its shareholders as such Superior Proposal. During the period from Tyhee’s receipt of the Notice of Superior Proposal until the end of such five (5) Business Day period, Santa Fe shall, if requested by Tyhee, negotiate in good faith with Tyhee to revise this Agreement so that the Competing Transaction that constituted a Superior Proposal no longer constitutes a Superior Proposal. Any disclosure that the Santa Fe Board may be compelled to make with respect to the receipt of a proposal or offer for a Competing Transaction or otherwise in order to comply with its fiduciary obligations under applicable Law or Rule 14d-9 or 14e-2 under the Securities Exchange Act or to comply with any other applicable Law, will not constitute a violation of this Agreement, provided that such disclosure states that no action will be taken by the Santa Fe Board in violation of this Section 6.2. Except as permitted in this Section 6.2, Santa Fe shall not submit to the vote of its shareholders any Competing Transaction, or propose to do so.

- 45 -

A “Superior Proposal” means an unsolicited written bona fide offer made by a Third Party to consummate any of the following transactions: (i) a merger, consolidation, share exchange, business combination or other similar transaction involving Santa Fe pursuant to which the shareholders of Santa Fe immediately preceding such transaction would hold less than 50% of the equity interest in the surviving or resulting entity of such transaction; or (ii) the acquisition by any Person or group (including by means of a tender offer or an exchange offer or a two-step transaction involving a tender offer followed with reasonable promptness by a cash-out merger involving Santa Fe), directly or indirectly, of ownership of a majority of the then outstanding Santa Fe Shares, in each case on terms (including conditions to consummation of the contemplated transaction) that the Santa Fe Board determines, in its good faith judgment (after having received the advice of independent legal counsel and a financial advisor), to be (A) more favorable to the shareholders of Santa Fe than the Merger (taking into account probability of closing and all other terms and conditions of such proposal and this Agreement and any changes to the financial terms of this Agreement proposed by Tyhee in response to such offer or otherwise), and (B) reasonably capable of being completed taking into account all legal, regulatory and other aspects of such and for which financing, to the extent required, is then committed.

(a)

Upon reasonable notice and subject to applicable Laws relating to the exchange of information, each of Santa Fe and Tyhee (as the case might be, the “Permitting Party”) shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, afford to the authorized representatives of the other Party (such other Party, the “Accessing Party”), including officers, employees, accountants, counsel, and other representatives of the Accessing Party, at the Accessing Party’s sole expense, reasonable access, during normal business hours during the Pre-Closing Period, to all of the Permitting Party’s properties (including owned or leased real property), Contracts, books, records, data, and personnel and, during the Pre-Closing Period, the Permitting Party shall, and shall cause Permitting Party’s Subsidiaries to, make available to the Accessing Party all information concerning the Permitting Party’s business, properties, and personnel as the Accessing Party might reasonably request. Each Accessing Party shall not access and shall not review the foregoing information in a manner that interferes unreasonably with the operations of the Permitting Party or the Permitting Party’s Subsidiaries or that unreasonably interferes with the prompt discharge by the Permitting Party’s employees of their duties. Representatives of the Accessing Party (including, in the case of Tyhee, Tyhee Liaison Officer), when visiting the premises of the Permitting Party, will at all times conduct themselves in accordance with applicable local law and the reasonable policies and procedures of the Permitting Party.

(b)

Each of Santa Fe and Tyhee (as the case might be, the “Indemnifying Party”) shall indemnify and hold harmless the other Party and the other Party’s Subsidiaries (such other Party and such other Party’s Subsidiaries, collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) from any and all Claims and Liabilities, including costs and expenses for the injury to or death of any of the Indemnified Party’s representatives and any loss or destruction of any property (including Claims or Liabilities for use of any property) resulting directly or indirectly from the action or inaction of any of the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnifying Party’s Subsidiaries, or their respective representatives, as applicable, during any visit to the business or property of the Indemnifying Party prior to the completion of the Merger (whether pursuant to Section 6.2(a) or otherwise), other than any such Claims and Liabilities arising out of or resulting from the negligence or willful misconduct of the representatives of the Indemnified Party or the Indemnified Party’s Subsidiaries. Each Indemnified Party is hereby made a third-party beneficiary of the rights that would be afforded under this Section 6.2(b) to such Indemnified Party as if such Indemnified Party were an original signatory hereto for such purposes (and only for such purposes).

(d)	A Party will not be required to provide access to or to disclose information (and will not be required to cause such Party’s Subsidiaries to provide access to or to disclose information) if such access or disclosure would violate or prejudice the rights of such Party’s customers, jeopardize any attorney-client privilege, or contravene any Law or any binding Contract entered into prior to the Signing Date. If such a circumstance arises, then Santa Fe and Tyhee shall make reasonable and appropriate substitute disclosure arrangements under circumstances in which the restrictions of the preceding sentence apply.
(e)	During the Pre-Closing Period, Santa Fe shall grant Tyhee Liaison Officer full access to Santa Fe headquarters’ offices, and any other real property that any Santa Fe Entity leases as Tyhee Liaison Officer reasonably requests, and all Santa Fe books, records, and personnel during normal business hours, and shall permit Tyhee to host authorized Tyhee representatives at Santa Fe headquarters’ offices, including engineers, advisors and consultants, and lenders and financing sources, at Tyhee’s sole risk and expense (subject to Section 6.2(b)) and without unreasonably disrupting Santa Fe operations, in order to investigate and assess the management of any Santa Fe Entity, as Tyhee reasonably deems necessary or appropriate (a “Tyhee Investigation”). Santa Fe shall (and shall cause each Santa Fe Subsidiary to) cooperate with Tyhee in conducting any such Tyhee Investigation and, (ii) allow Tyhee full access to Santa Fe Entities’ respective businesses, Santa Fe Property, and Santa Fe Assets.
(f)	Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.3 to the contrary, (i) no Party is obligated under Section 6.3 to disclose to any other Party or such other Party’s representatives, or grant such other Party or such other Party’s representatives access to, information that is within the possession or control of such first Party or such first Party’s Subsidiaries but that is not permitted to be disclosed to such other Party or such other Party’s representative pursuant to a binding confidentiality agreement with a third party without first obtaining the consent of such third party, and such other Party, to the extent requested by such first Party, shall use such other Party’s Reasonable Best Efforts to obtain any such consent.
(g)	No investigation by any Party or such Party’s representatives will (or will be deemed to) modify or constitute a waiver of any of the terms hereof (including any representation, warranty, obligation, acknowledgment, or condition hereunder).

(b)	Santa Fe shall terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(d);
(c)	Tyhee shall terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(h);
(d)	Tyhee shall terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(i);

then in any such case Santa Fe shall pay to Tyhee a fee of $300,000 (the “Santa Fe Break Fee”). It is agreed by the parties that the Santa Fe Break Fee represents liquidated damages and a pre-estimate of the damages Tyhee will suffer or incur as a result of the event giving rise to such damages and the non-completion of the transaction contemplated herein.

8.3 Tyhee Termination Fee.

In the event Santa Fe shall terminate this Agreement pursuant to

(a)	Section 8.1(g);
(b)	Section 8.1(j); or
(c)	Section 8.1(k) for reasons other than Tyhee’s failure to consummate a Qualified Financing because:

(i)

there develops, occurs or comes into effect or existence any event, action, state, condition or major financial occurrence of national or international consequence (including terrorism) or any law or regulation which, in the opinion of the lead underwriter or lead agent engaged by Tyhee to effect the Qualified Financing (or if no such underwriter or agent is engaged, any arm’s length financial advisor engaged by Tyhee in connection with the Qualified Financing) acting reasonably, materially adversely affects or involves, or might reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect or involve, the financial markets or the business, operations or affairs of the Tyhee Entities, taken as a whole; or

(ii)

the price of gold, as reported by COMEX, falls below $900 per troy ounce for ten consecutive trading days;

then in any such case Tyhee shall pay to Santa Fe a fee of $300,000 (the “Tyhee Break Fee”), as promptly as reasonably practicable by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account designated to Tyhee by Santa Fe. It is agreed by the parties that the Santa Fe Break Fee represents liquidated damages and a pre-estimate of the damages Tyhee will suffer or incur as a result of the event giving rise to such damages and the non-completion of the transaction contemplated herein.

8.4 Certain Obligations of Santa Fe Upon Termination; Tyhee Conversion Right

In the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1(b), (d), (f), (h) or (i), Santa Fe shall, no later than five calendar days following the effective date of termination of this Agreement, pay to Merger Sub (or, at the option of Tyhee, set off against the Tyhee Break Fee, if applicable) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account designated to Santa Fe by Tyhee:

- 58 -

(a)

all principal and interest outstanding under the Bridge Loan and the Additional Bridge Loans (if any); and

(b)

all reasonable direct out of pocket costs incurred by Tyhee in connection with financing transactions undertaken (but not necessarily consummated) to facilitate and fund the Bridge Loan and the Additional Bridge Loans (if any), supported by invoices and other evidence reasonably acceptable to Santa Fe (including, without limitation: legal fees and disbursements; fees, commissions and any other amounts paid or reimbursed to financial advisors, brokers, dealers and finders participating in such financing transactions; and fees paid to the TSXV and any other regulatory authority having jurisdiction);

provided, however, that Merger Sub shall have the option, exercisable in its sole discretion, to convert all or a portion of the amounts referred to in Section 8.4(a) and Section 8.4(b) into fully paid and non-assessable Santa Fe Shares at a conversion price equal to the Santa Fe VWAP for the twenty consecutive trading days ending on the date immediately preceding the date of conversion. This conversion option will be subject to, and conditional upon, compliance by Tyhee and Santa Fe with all applicable Laws. Santa Fe hereby represents and warrants that no stockholder or regulatory approvals are required in respect of such conversion. Tyhee acknowledges and agrees that such option and the Santa Fe Shares issuable upon exercise thereof have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act. Accordingly, the Santa Fe Shares will be issued as “restricted securities” (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act), and will be represented by one or more definitive share certificates bearing a U.S. restrictive legend substantially in the following form:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “U.S. SECURITIES ACT”) OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED UNLESS THERE IS AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT AND SUCH LAWS COVERING SUCH SECURITIES, OR THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY STATING THAT SUCH OFFER, SALE, PLEDGE OR OTHER TRANSFER IS EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION AND PROSPECTUS DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS OF THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT AND SUCH LAWS. THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THE CERTIFICATE CANNOT BE THE SUBJECT OF HEDGING TRANSACTIONS UNLESS SUCH TRANSACTIONS ARE CONDUCTED IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT.

In the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1(c), Santa Fe shall, no later than five calendar days following the effective date of termination of this Agreement, pay to Merger Sub by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account designated to Santa Fe by Tyhee all principal outstanding under the Bridge Loan (if any).

8.5 Force Majeure.

A Party shall not be deemed in default of this Agreement, nor shall it hold the other Party responsible for, any cessation, interruption or delay in the performance of its obligations (excluding payment obligations) due to earthquake, flood, fire, storm, natural disaster, act of God, war, terrorism, armed conflict, labor strike, lockout, boycott, a material decline in the price of gold, or other similar events beyond the reasonable control of the Party, provided that the Party relying upon this provision:

- 59 -

(a)	gives prompt written notice thereof, and
(b)	takes all steps reasonably necessary to mitigate the effects of the force majeure event.

If a force majeure event extends for a period in excess of 30 days in the aggregate, either Party may immediately terminate this Agreement upon written notice, in which event Santa Fe shall pay to Tyhee all amounts outstanding under the Bridge Loan and the Additional Bridge Loans (if any), as promptly as reasonably practicable by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account designated to Santa Fe by Tyhee.

8.6 Expenses.

Except as otherwise provided herein, if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to and in accordance with this ARTICLE 8, then this Agreement will immediately become void, with no liability or obligation on the part of the Parties or their respective employees, officers, directors, shareholders, representatives, advisors, agents or Affiliates; except for those obligations created pursuant to the terms of the Bridge Loan and the Additional Bridge Loans (if any).

GOLD PURCHASE AGREEMENT AMENDMENT BINDING TERM SHEET - JANUARY 6, 2014

Background

     This term sheet (the “Term Sheet”) outlines the agreement of Sandstorm Gold (Barbados) Ltd. (“Sandstorm Barbados”), Santa Fe Gold Corp. (“Santa Fe”), Santa Fe Gold (Barbados) Corp. (“Santa Fe Barbados”), Lordsburg Mining Company (“Lordsburg”) and Sandstorm Gold Ltd. (“Sandstorm”) as to certain amendments to be made to the purchase agreement among them dated as of September 11, 2009, as amended by amendment agreement no. 1 dated as of March 29, 2011 and amendment agreement no. 2 dated as of June 28, 2011 (the “Purchase Agreement”). The amendments to the Purchase Agreement shall be set forth in an amended and restated purchase agreement (the “Amended and Restated Purchase Agreement”) to be signed by all parties hereto (the “Parties” or a “Party”) and the grant of the net smelter return royalty (further discussed below) shall be set forth in a net smelter return royalty agreement (the “Royalty Agreement”) to be signed by Sandstorm Barbados, Santa Fe Barbados and Lordsburg. The Amended and Restated Purchase Agreement and the Royalty Agreement shall be in form and content satisfactory to the Parties, each acting reasonably.

     All capitalized terms when not otherwise defined in this Term Sheet shall have the respective meanings attributed thereto in the Purchase Agreement.

     By their execution and delivery hereof, the Parties agree that amounts owing by Santa Fe Barbados (as guaranteed by Santa Fe and Lordsburg) under the completion guarantee set forth in the Purchase Agreement (inclusive of interest) and pursuant to outstanding deliveries of Sandstorm Purchased Payable Au (that have not been made to Sandstorm Barbados notwithstanding the provisions of the Purchase Agreement) total US$7,100,120 (the “Santa Fe Barbados Repayment Amount”).

     Although this Term Sheet is binding on the Parties it remains subject to the signing of the Amended and Restated Purchase Agreement and the Royalty Agreement and therefore, it is the intention of the Parties to execute and deliver the Amended and Restated Purchase Agreement and the Royalty Agreement by 5:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on February 28, 2014 (the “Outside Date”). If the Amended and Restated Purchase Agreement and the Royalty Agreement are not signed by the applicable Parties on or before the Outside Date, the Purchase Agreement shall remain in full force and effect (and shall not be amended by the provisions of this Term Sheet) and the Santa Fe Barbados Repayment Amount shall remain due and owing to Sandstorm Barbados pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement.

I. Provisions of Amended and Restated Purchase Agreement

The list set forth below is not exhaustive of the points that will be covered in the Amended and Restated Purchase Agreement (but the terms thereof shall not be inconsistent with the following):

1. The Santa Fe Barbados Repayment Amount shall be set forth in the document and shall be acknowledged (again) as being due and owing. The repayment of the Santa Fe Barbados Repayment Amount, shall commence on the earlier of July 1, 2016 and the Waterton Repayment Date. The repayment of the Santa Fe Barbados Repayment Amount shall be made in 24 equal monthly instalments, by 24 deliveries of gold, with each delivery having a value equal to US$295,880 (the value of the gold that is delivered to be based on the market price of gold two Business Days prior to each applicable delivery date), each such payment by way of gold delivery to be made on the 1st day (or the 1st Business Day) of each and every month of such 24 month period.

2. The Royalty Agreement will be created contemporaneous with the signing of this document.

3. So long as the Royalty Agreement is in good standing and no default exists thereunder, no deliveries of Sandstorm Purchased Payable Au need be made.

4. As of the date of signing, the Uncredited Balance shall be reduced to equal the Santa Fe Barbados Repayment Amount (and the Uncredited Balance shall be reduced from time to time to equal any then outstanding Santa Fe Barbados Repayment Amount).

5. There will be a cross default under the Amended and Restated Purchase Agreement, such that failure to make a royalty payment or to satisfy any other obligation by any of Santa Fe, Santa Fe Barbados or Lordsburg under the Royalty Agreement, shall constitute a default under the Amended and Restated Purchase Agreement.

6. Forthwith after Waterton Global Resource Management has been repaid all amounts owing to it (principal, interest and penalties) under its senior secured gold stream credit agreement dated as of December 21, 2011 among Azco Mica inc., Santa Fe, Santa Fe Barbados, Lordsburg and Waterton Global Resource Management (the “Waterton Repayment Date”) and after all security interests and charges in favour of Waterton Global Resource Management have been extinguished, the Project Charge will rank as first place security. Until Sandstorm Barbados has received the full amount of the Santa Fe Barbados Repayment Amount; (i) no further indebtedness (save and except for accounts payable in the ordinary course of business) shall be created by any of Santa Fe, Santa Fe Barbados or Lordsburg (including without limitation, intercompany indebtedness); and (ii) no prior or subsequent security, encumbrances or charges shall be granted by any of Santa Fe, Santa Fe Barbados or Lordsburg with respect to the Project. Immediately upon completion of payment in full of the Santa Fe Barbados Repayment Amount, the Project Charge will terminate.

7. The right of offer contained in Article 14 shall be deleted.

8. Article 16 shall include provision that during the Term or the Extended Term, as the case may be, each of Sandstorm and Sandstorm Barbados shall have the right to Transfer by way of encumbrance, in whole or in part, their respective rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more lenders providing financing to Sandstorm or Sandstorm Barbados without notice.

II Provisions of Royalty Agreement

The list set forth below is not exhaustive of the points that will be covered in the Royalty Agreement (but the terms thereof shall not be inconsistent with the following):

1. The royalty will be payable in perpetuity and will run with the land that forms a part of the Project.

The royalty will be registered against the interest of Lordsburg in the Project. If necessary pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Project is situated, a document (that is in addition to the Royalty Agreement and not inconsistent therewith) will be created by counsel to Sandstorm Barbados in order to enable Sandstorm Barbados to effect the registration as against title to the Project.

Page - 2 -

2. The royalty will be a percentage of net smelter returns (the “Net Smelter Returns”), to be calculated by adding gross revenue derived from the sale of silver and gold produced from the Project and subtracting therefrom, allowable deductions. The allowable deductions will conform to industry standards. A sale shall include insurance proceeds received on account of lost minerals or products, but shall not include insurance proceeds received on account of loss of business or lost profits.

3. The percentage of the Net Smelter Returns that will constitute the royalty will be as follows:

(a) 3% of Net Smelter Returns if the applicable monthly average gold price is US$1,500 per ounce of gold or less; and

(b) 4% of Net Smelter Returns if the applicable monthly average gold price is greater than US$1,500 per ounce of gold; and

4. Royalty payments will be made quarterly and will be made not in cash but as and by way of the delivery of gold to an account of Sandstorm Barbados (with the value of the gold to be based on the market price of gold two Business Days prior to each applicable delivery date).

5. Each royalty payment will be accompanied by a royalty statement.

6. Santa Fe and Santa Fe Barbados will guarantee the obligations of Lordsburg.

7. An annual report will be delivered to Sandstorm Barbados.

8. There will be restricted transfer rights of Santa Fe, Santa Fe Barbados and Lordsburg (similar to those contained in the Purchase Agreement).

9. The dispute resolution mechanism will be similar to that contained in the Purchase Agreement.

III. General Provisions

1. This Term Sheet shall endure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and assigns and shall be construed and subject to the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein.

2. The Parties agree that there will be no public announcement or other disclosure of the transaction set forth herein or of the matters dealt with herein unless the Parties have mutually agreed thereto or unless otherwise required by applicable law or by regulatory instrument, rule or policy based on the advice of counsel. If a Party is required by applicable law or regulatory instrument, rule or policy to make a public announcement with respect to the transaction set forth herein , such Party hereto will provide as much notice to the other of them as reasonably possible, including the proposed text of the announcement.

     ARTICLE 3
FORBEARANCE AND WAIVER

IGS agrees with Tyhee and Santa Fe that it will not take any steps to enforce any of its rights or remedies against Santa Fe for any amounts due under any of the Secured Convertible Notes or pursuant to the Security Agreement while the Merger is being negotiated or until the Merger has been terminated pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement.
