Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On July 14, 2016, Silver Bull Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a series of substantially similar subscription agreements (each, a “Subscription Agreement”) with certain investors providing for the issuance and sale by the Company to the investors of an aggregate 4,340,000 units (the “Units”) of the Company at a price of CDN$0.15 per Unit for gross proceeds of CDN$651,000.  Each Unit will consist of one share of common stock of the Company (a “Common Share”) and one common share purchase warrant (a “Warrant”).  Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share at a price of CDN$0.16 until the date that is three years following the closing of the Private Placement.  If, commencing on the date that is four months after the closing of the Private Placement, the closing price of the Common Shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) is higher than CDN$0.30 for 20 consecutive trading days, then on the 20th consecutive trading day (the “Acceleration Trigger Date”) the expiry date of the Warrants may be accelerated to the 20th trading day after the Acceleration Trigger Date by the issuance, within three trading days of the Acceleration Trigger Date, of a news release announcing such acceleration.
In addition, the Company entered into a Placement Agent Agreement, dated July 7, 2016 (the “Placement Agent Agreement”), with Sprott Global Resource Investments, Ltd. (“Sprott”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to pay Sprott an aggregate cash commission of CDN$30,060, in addition to an aggregate 200,400 non-transferable common share purchase warrants (the “Placement Agent’s Warrants”), subject to final approval of the TSX.  Each Placement Agent’s Warrant (i) entitles Sprott to acquire one Common Share until the date that is two years following the closing of the Private Placement at the greater of (A) CDN$0.15 and (B) the five-day volume-weighted average price preceding notice of the Private Placement to the TSX and (ii) is subject to the acceleration provision noted above.
All securities to be issued in the Private Placement are subject to a hold period under applicable Canadian securities laws, which will expire four months plus one day from the closing date of the Private Placement, and will be restricted securities under U.S. securities laws.  The Company relied on the exemption from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or Rule 506 of Regulation D, or Regulation S, for purposes of the Private Placement.  This Current Report on Form 8-K is not, and shall not be deemed to be, an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any of the securities.
The foregoing descriptions of the Subscription Agreements, Warrants, Placement Agent Agreement and Placement Agent’s Warrants do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the copies of the form of Subscription Agreement, form of Warrant, Placement Agent Agreement and form of Placement Agent’s Warrant filed herewith as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 10.3 and 10.4, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which are incorporated herein by reference.

4.18 The funds representing the aggregate Subscription Price in respect of the Units which will be advanced by or on behalf of the Purchaser to the Company hereunder do not represent proceeds of crime for the purposes of the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (Canada) (for the purposes of this section 4.19 the “ PCMLTFA ”) and the Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Company may be required by law to provide the securities regulators with a list setting forth the identities of the beneficial purchasers of the Units, or disclosure pursuant to the PCMLTFA.  Notwithstanding that the Purchaser may be purchasing Units as agent on behalf of an undisclosed principal, the Purchaser agrees to provide, on request, particulars as to the identity of such undisclosed principal as may be required by the Company in order to comply with the foregoing. To the best of the Purchaser’s knowledge (a) none of the subscription funds provided by or on behalf of the Purchaser (i) have been or will be derived directly or indirectly from or related to any activity that is deemed criminal under the laws of Canada, the United States, or any other jurisdiction, or (ii) are being tendered on behalf of a person or entity who has not been identified to the Purchaser and, (b) the Purchaser will promptly notify the Company if the Purchaser discovers that any of such representations cease to be true, and shall provide the Company with appropriate information in connection therewith.

5.              Purchaser’s Acknowledgments
5.1 The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees (on its own behalf and, if applicable, on behalf of each beneficial purchaser for whom the Purchaser is contracting hereunder) with the Company (which acknowledgements and agreements shall survive the Closing) that:
(a) This subscription forms part of the Offering.
(b) The Units are subject to resale restrictions under applicable Securities Laws (defined below) and the Purchaser covenants that it will not resell the Units (or any securities underlying the Units or that may be issued in connection with the Units), except in compliance with such laws and the Purchaser acknowledges that it is solely responsible (and the Company is not in any way responsible) for such compliance. The Purchaser is advised to consult the Purchaser’s own legal advisors in this regard.  For purposes hereof, “ Securities Laws ” means the Securities Act (British Columbia) (the “ B.C. Act ”), the 1933 Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and all orders, rulings, published policy statements, notices, interpretation notes, directions and instruments thereunder and, if the Purchaser is not resident in British Columbia, also means the Other Applicable Securities Laws.
(c) The Units are being offered for sale only on a “private placement” basis.
(d) In purchasing the Units, the Purchaser has relied solely upon publicly available information relating to the Company and not upon any oral or written representation as to any fact or otherwise made by or on behalf of the Company or any other person associated therewith, the decision to purchase the Units was made on the basis of publicly available information.
(e) The Purchaser’s ability to transfer the Units (or any securities underlying the Units or that may be issued in connection with the Units) is limited by, among other things, the Securities Laws and the policies of the Exchange.  In particular the Purchaser acknowledges having been informed that the Units (or any securities underlying the Units or that may be issued in connection with the Units), are subject to resale restrictions under National Instrument 45-102 – Resale of Securities (“ NI 45-102 ”) and may not be sold or otherwise disposed of in Canada for a period of four months from the date of distribution of the Units, unless a statutory exemption is available or a discretionary order is obtained from the applicable Securities Commission allowing the earlier resale thereof, and may be subject to additional resale restrictions if such sale or other disposition would be a “control distribution”, as that term is defined in NI 45-102.  If the Purchaser is not resident in Canada, additional resale restrictions may apply under the Other Applicable Securities Laws.
In addition to the foregoing, the Purchaser acknowledges that (i) the Company is a “domestic issuer” for purposes of United States securities laws, (ii) the Units (or any securities underlying the Units or that may be issued in connection with the Units) will constitute “restricted securities” under the 1933 Act and (iii) certificates representing the Common Shares and the Warrants comprising the Units will bear a legend in the form set forth in Section 6.2.  Because the Company is a “domestic issuer” the Units (or any securities underlying the Units or that may be issued in connection with the Units) will continue to be “restricted securities” notwithstanding any resale pursuant to Regulation S under the 1933 Act .  The U.S. restrictive legend set forth on any certificate representing the Units (or any securities underlying the Units or that may be issued in connection with the Units) will not be removed except in connection with (A) a resale of the Units (or any securities underlying the Units or that may be issued in connection with the Units) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act, or (B) a resale of the Units (or any securities underlying the Units or that may be issued in connection with the Units) pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933 Act, in each case, irrespective of the holding period set forth above under NI 45-102.
 
13

 
 

(f) The representations, warranties, covenants and acknowledgements of the Purchaser contained in this Subscription Agreement, and in any appendices or other documents or materials executed and delivered by the Purchaser hereunder, are made by the Purchaser with the intent that they may be relied upon by the Company and its professional advisors in determining the Purchaser’s eligibility to purchase the Units. The Purchaser further agrees that by accepting the Units the Purchaser shall be representing and warranting that the foregoing representations and warranties are true as at the Closing with the same force and effect as if they had been made by the Purchaser at the Closing and that they shall survive the purchase by the Purchaser of the Units and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any subsequent disposition by the Purchaser of the Units (or any securities underlying the Units or that may be issued in connection with the Units).  The Purchaser hereby agrees to indemnify and save harmless the Company and its directors, officers, employees, advisors, affiliates, shareholders and agents, and their respective counsel, against all losses, claims, costs, expenses and damages or liabilities which any of them may suffer or incur and which are caused by or arise from any inaccuracy in, breach or misrepresentation by the Purchaser of, any such representations, warranties and covenants.  The Purchaser undertakes to immediately notify the Company of any change in any statement or other information relating to the Purchaser set forth herein or in an Investor Certificate, as the case may be, that takes place prior to the Closing Date.
(g) The sale and delivery of the Units to the Purchaser is conditional upon such sale being exempt from the requirement to file a prospectus or registration statement or to prepare and deliver an offering memorandum or similar document under any applicable statute relating to the sale of the Units or upon the issuance of such orders, consents or approvals as may be required to permit such sale without the requirement of filing a prospectus or registration statement or preparing and delivering an offering memorandum or similar document.  The Purchaser further acknowledges and agrees that the Company may be required to provide applicable securities regulatory authorities with a list setting forth the identities of the beneficial purchasers of the Units and that the Purchaser will provide, on request, particulars as to the identity of such beneficial purchasers as may be required by the Company in order to comply with the foregoing.
(h) The Purchaser and, if the person signing this subscription is acting as agent for a disclosed principal, such agent acknowledge and consent to the fact that the Company is collecting the Purchaser’s, and, if applicable, such agent’s personal information (as that term is defined under applicable privacy legislation, including, without limitation, the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (Canada) and any other applicable similar, replacement or supplemental provincial or federal legislation or laws in effect from time to time), for the purpose of completing this Subscription Agreement.  The Purchaser and, if the person signing this subscription is acting as agent for a disclosed principal, such agent acknowledge and consent to the Company retaining such personal information for as long as permitted or required by law or business practices.  The Purchaser and, if the person signing this subscription is acting as agent for a disclosed principal, such agent further acknowledges and consents to the fact that the Company may be required by the Securities Laws, the rules and policies of any stock exchange or the rules of the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada to provide regulatory authorities, stock exchanges or marketplaces with any personal information provided by the Purchaser or, if applicable, such agent in this Subscription Agreement.  The Purchaser and, if the person signing this subscription is acting as agent for a disclosed principal, such agent represent and warrant that it has the authority to provide the consents and acknowledgements set out in this Subsection 5.1(h).  In addition to the foregoing, the Purchaser and, if the person signing this subscription is acting as agent for a disclosed principal, such agent acknowledge and agree that the Company may use and disclose the Purchaser’s and, if applicable, such agent’s personal information, and consents thereto, as follows:

(j) The Purchaser has such knowledge in financial and business affairs as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the Purchaser’s proposed investment in the Units.
(k) This subscription is conditional upon its acceptance by the Company and the Subscription Agreement is conditional upon the acceptance of the Offering for filing by the Exchange.
(l) The Purchaser is aware that (i) the Company may complete additional financings in the future in order to develop the Company’s business and to fund its ongoing development, (ii) there is no assurance that such financings will be available and, if available, on reasonable terms, (iii) any such future financings may have a dilutive effect on the Company’s securityholders, including the Purchaser, and (iv) if such future financings are not available, the Company may be unable to fund its on-going development and the lack of capital resources may result in the failure of the Company’s business.
(m) A placement agent’s fee or finder’s fee may be payable by the Company to [the Placement Agent / Sprott Global Resource Investments, Ltd. (the “ Placement Agent ”)] or any finder, as applicable, who introduces a purchaser to the Company and such person’s Subscription Agreement is accepted by the Company.

6.               Resale Restrictions and Legending of Securities
6.1 In addition to the acknowledgements given in Article 5 hereof, the Purchaser acknowledges that the Units (or any securities underlying the Units or that may be issued in connection with the Units) will be subject to statutory resale restrictions.
6.2 The Purchaser acknowledges that the Common Shares and Warrants and, if any Warrants are exercised prior to the expiry of the statutory resale restrictions, any Warrant Shares, will have attached to them whether through the electronic deposit of CDS, an ownership statement issued under a direct registration system or other electronic book-entry system, or on certificates that may be issued, as applicable, legends setting out the resale restrictions under applicable Securities Laws and required by the Exchange substantially in the following form and with the information completed:
(a) Canadian restrictive legends:
“UNLESS PERMITTED UNDER SECURITIES LEGISLATION, THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY MUST NOT TRADE THE SECURITY IN CANADA BEFORE [INSERT THE DATE THAT IS FOUR MONTHS AND ONE DAY AFTER THE CLOSING DATE.]”

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE LISTED ON THE TORONTO STOCK EXCHANGE (THE “TSX”); HOWEVER, THE SAID SECURITIES CANNOT BE TRADED THROUGH THE FACILITIES OF THE TSX SINCE THEY ARE NOT FREELY TRANSFERABLE, AND CONSEQUENTLY ANY CERTIFICATE REPRESENTING SUCH SECURITIES IS NOT “GOOD DELIVERY” IN SETTLEMENT OF TRANSACTIONS ON THE TSX.”


(b) U.S. restrictive legend (the “U.S. Legend”):
“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “1933 ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAW.  THE HOLDER HEREOF, BY PURCHASING SUCH SECURITIES, AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF SILVER BULL RESOURCES, INC. (THE “COMPANY”) THAT SUCH SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED ONLY (A) TO THE COMPANY, (B) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE 1933 ACT AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, (C) PURSUANT TO RULE 904 OF REGULATION S OF THE 1933 ACT, IF AVAILABLE, AND PURSUANT TO LOCAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS, (D) IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE 1933 ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144 THEREUNDER, IF AVAILABLE, AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR (E) IN A TRANSACTION THAT DOES NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE 1933 ACT AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, PROVIDED THAT, IN THE CASE OF (C), (D) OR (E), THE HOLDER HAS DELIVERED TO THE COMPANY AND THE REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OF RECOGNIZED STANDING IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND THE REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT TO SUCH EFFECT.”
 
16

 
 
6.3 The Purchaser acknowledges that the Units are being offered pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act pursuant to Regulation S or Regulation D under the 1933 Act.  The Purchaser further acknowledges that the Units (or any securities underlying the Units or that may be issued in connection with the Units) have not been registered under the 1933 Act or the securities laws of any State of the United States and that the Company does not intend to register any of the Units (or any securities underlying the Units or that may be issued in connection with the Units) under the 1933 Act or the securities laws of any state of the United States and has no obligation to do so. The Units may not be offered or sold to a U.S. Person or a person in the United States unless registered in accordance with United States federal securities laws and all applicable state securities laws or exemptions from such requirements are available.
6.4 In the case of a sale of the Common Shares or the Warrant Shares by the Purchaser made pursuant to either (A) the provisions of Rule 144 of the 1933 Act; or (B) an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act, the Company shall, at the Company’s own cost, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the transfer agent to remove the U.S. Legend and deliver unlegended share certificates to the Purchaser within three trading days following the delivery by the Purchaser to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent of a share certificate endorsed with the U.S. Legend.  If the Company’s transfer agent fails to deliver an unlegended share certificate within such three trading day period, the Company will indemnify the Purchaser [(other than U.S. investors that are (i) brokers employed by the Placement Agent or its affiliates or (ii) one of the Exploration Capital Limited Partnerships managed by the Placement Agent or its affiliates)] for any damages and costs incurred as a result thereof, provided that: (i) such indemnity shall not extend to any lost profits of the Purchaser; and (ii) the aggregate amount of such indemnity in respect of any one legend removal shall not exceed US$5,000.  For greater clarity, if, in the case of a sale pursuant to, and subject to satisfaction of the conditions required by, (A) or (B) above, the Company or the Company’s transfer agent requires a legal opinion to remove the U.S. Legend from any certificates representing the Common Shares or the Warrant Shares as contemplated in this Section, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its legal counsel to deliver such legal opinion at the Company’s expense.
6.5 If, at any time before the first anniversary of the expiry of the Warrants, the Company determines to prepare and file with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ SEC ”) a registration statement relating to an offering for the Company’s own account or the account of others under the 1933 Act of any of its equity securities, other than a registration statement on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the 1933 Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with the Company’s stock option or other employee benefit plans, then the Company shall deliver to the Purchaser a written notice of such determination and, if within 15 days after the date of the delivery of such notice, the Purchaser shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such registration statement all or any part of the Common Shares or the Warrant Shares issued or issuable to the Purchaser (and any securities issued or then issuable upon any stock split, dividend or other distribution, capitalization or similar event with respect to the foregoing) (collectively, the “ Registrable Securities ”) that the Purchaser requests to be registered, but the Company shall not be required to register any Registrable Securities that (i) are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 of the 1933 Act,  and (ii) would continue to be eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 of the 1933 Act if the Company ceased to comply with the current information requirements of Rule 144(c).

1.4              Issuance of Common Stock.
The Company shall, as soon as possible after the Exercise Date, issue the number of shares of Common Stock specified in the Election to Exercise.

(ii) a number determined by dividing (A) either (i) the product of the number of shares of Common Stock issued or subscribed during the Rights Period upon exercise of the rights, warrants or options under the Rights Offering and the price at which such Common Stock is offered, or (ii) as the case may be, the product of the number of shares of Common Stock for or into which the convertible or exchangeable securities offered during the Rights Period upon exercise of the rights, warrants or options under the Rights Offering are exchangeable or convertible and the exchange or conversion price of the convertible or exchangeable securities so issued, by (B) the Current Market Price per Share as of three days prior to the record date for the Rights Offering, and
the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including the number of shares of Common Stock actually issued or subscribed for during the Rights Period upon exercise of the rights, warrants or options under the Rights Offering) or which would be outstanding upon the conversion or exchange of all convertible or exchangeable securities issued during the Rights Period upon exercise of the rights, warrants or options under the Rights Offering, as applicable, in each case after giving effect to the Rights Offering.
In order to give effect to the provisions of subsection 2.2(e) in the circumstances described below, if the Holder shall have exercised its right to purchase Common Stock during the period beginning immediately after the record date for a Rights Offering and ending on the last day of the Rights Period therefor, in addition to the Common Stock to which it is otherwise entitled upon such exercise, then the Holder shall be entitled to that number of additional shares of Common Stock equal to the result obtained when the difference, if any, between the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the end of such Rights Offering and the Exercise Price, as adjusted for such Rights Offering pursuant to this subsection 2.2(b), is multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of the Warrants held by the Holder during such period, and the resulting product is divided by the Exercise Price, as adjusted for such Rights Offering pursuant to this subsection 2.2(b). Such additional shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued to the Holder immediately following the end of the Rights Period and a certificate for such additional shares of Common Stock shall be delivered to the Holder within 10 business days following the end of the Rights Period.

(c) If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry the Company shall fix a record date for the payment, issue or distribution to all or substantially all of the holders of the Common Stock of (i) a dividend, (ii) any property, cash or assets (including evidences of indebtedness), or (iii) rights, options, warrants, or other securities (including, without limitation, securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock), and such payment, issue or distribution does not constitute a Dividend Paid in the Ordinary Course, a Common Stock Reorganization or a Rights Offering (any of such non-excluded events being herein called a “ Special Distribution ”), the Exercise Price shall be adjusted effective immediately after such record date to a price determined by multiplying the applicable Exercise Price in effect on such record date by a fraction:
(i) the numerator of which shall be:
(1) the product of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such record date and the Current Market Price per Share as of three days prior to such record date; less
(2) the aggregate fair market value, as determined by action by the directors (whose determination shall be conclusive) and subject to the prior approval of the TSX and any other stock exchange or market on which the Common Stock may be listed or traded, to the holders of the Common Stock of such dividend, property, cash, assets, rights, options, warrants or other securities so paid, issued or distributed less the aggregate fair market value, as determined by action of the directors (whose determination shall be conclusive) and subject to the prior approval of the TSX and any other stock exchange or market on which the Common Stock may be listed or traded, of the consideration, if any, received therefor by the Company, and
(ii) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such record date multiplied by the Current Market Price per Share as of three days prior to such record date.
Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed. To the extent that such payment, issuance or distribution is not so made, the Exercise Price shall be readjusted effective immediately to the Exercise Price which would then be in effect based upon such payment, issuance or distribution actually made.
(d) If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry there shall be a reorganization, reclassification or other change of Common Stock at any time outstanding or change of the Common Stock into other shares or into other securities (other than a Common Stock Reorganization), or a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger of the Company with or into any other corporation or other entity, or a sale, lease, exchange or transfer of all or substantially all of the undertaking or assets of the Company to another person in which the holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive shares, other securities or property, including cash (any of such events being herein called a “ Capital Reorganization ”), if the Holder exercises its right to subscribe for and purchase Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of the Warrants after the effective date of such Capital Reorganization then the Holder shall be entitled to receive, and shall accept for the same aggregate consideration in lieu of the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder was theretofore entitled upon such exercise, the aggregate number of shares, other securities or other property, including cash, which it would have received as a result of such Capital Reorganization had the Holder exercised its right to acquire Common Stock immediately prior to the effective date or record date, as the case may be, of the Capital Reorganization and had the Holder been the holder of such Common Stock on such effective date or record date, as the case may be.

(e) If determined appropriate by the directors, acting reasonably, and subject to any required prior approval of the TSX and any other stock exchange or market on which the Common Stock may be listed or traded, appropriate adjustments shall be made in the application of the provisions set forth in this subsection 2.2, with respect to any shares, other securities or other property, including cash, deliverable upon the exercise of any Warrant. Any such adjustments shall be made by and set forth in an agreement supplemental hereto approved by action by the directors, acting reasonably, and shall for all purposes be conclusively deemed to be appropriate adjustments.
(f) If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry there shall occur a Common Stock Reorganization which results in an adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to the provisions of this subsection 2.2, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable (at the adjusted Exercise Price) upon the exercise of Warrants shall be adjusted contemporaneously with the adjustment of the Exercise Price by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock theretofore issuable on the exercise thereof by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the applicable Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the applicable Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment.
(g) In case the Company after the date of issue of the Warrants shall take any action affecting the Common Stock, other than action described above in this subsection 2.2, which in the opinion of the directors, acting reasonably, would materially affect the rights of the Holder and/or the acquisition rights of the Holder, then that number of shares of Common Stock which are to be received upon the exercise of the Warrants shall be adjusted in such manner, if any, and at such time, by action of the directors, acting reasonably, as they may determine to be equitable to the Holder in the circumstances, but subject in all cases to any necessary regulatory approval, including the prior consent of the TSX and any other stock exchange or market on which the Common Stock may be listed or traded.
2.3              Rules.
For the purposes of subsection 2.2 hereof, any adjustment shall be made successively whenever an event referred to therein shall occur, subject to the following provisions:
(a) no adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be required unless such adjustment would result in a change of at least 1% in the prevailing Exercise Price and no adjustment in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants will be required to be made unless the cumulative effect of such adjustment or adjustments would change the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of a Warrant by at least one share of Common Stock and, for greater clarity, any adjustment which, except for the qualification of this section, would otherwise have been required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company be obligated to issue fractional shares of Common Stock or fractional interests in Common Stock upon exercise of a Warrant;
(b) if a dispute shall at any time arise with respect to adjustments to the Exercise Price or the number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the exercise rights represented by a Warrant, such disputes shall be conclusively determined by the Company’s auditors or, if they are unable or unwilling to act, by such other firm of independent chartered accountants as may be selected by action by the directors and any such determination shall, absent manifest or clerical error, be conclusive evidence of the correctness of any adjustments made; and
(c) if the Company shall set a record date to determine the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive any dividend or distribution or any subscription or purchase rights, options or warrants and shall thereafter and before the distribution to such shareholders of any such dividend, distribution or subscription or purchase rights legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend, distribution or subscription or purchase rights, then no adjustment in the Exercise Price or the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants shall be required by reason of the setting of such record date.

2.4              Taking of Actions.
As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which would require an adjustment pursuant to subsection 2.2 hereof, the Company shall take any action that may, in the opinion of counsel, be necessary in order that the Company may validly and legally issue as fully paid and non-assessable all of the shares of Common Stock which the Holder is entitled to receive in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant Certificate.
2.5              Notice.

In case any adjustment for which a certificate has been given is not then determinable, the Company shall promptly after such adjustment is determinable deliver to the Holder a certificate of the Company showing how such adjustment was computed. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the register of transfers and share transfer books for the Common Stock shall be open during normal business hours for inspection by the Holder, and that the Company will not take any action which might deprive the Holder of the opportunity of exercising the rights of subscription contained in this Warrant Certificate, during such 10 business day period.

(THE “COMPANY”) THAT SUCH SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED ONLY (A) TO THE COMPANY, (B) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE 1933 ACT AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, (C) PURSUANT TO RULE 904 OF REGULATION S OF THE 1933 ACT, IF AVAILABLE, AND PURSUANT TO LOCAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS, (D) IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE 1933 ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144 THEREUNDER, IF AVAILABLE, AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR (E) IN A TRANSACTION THAT DOES NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE 1933 ACT AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, PROVIDED THAT, IN THE CASE OF (C), (D) OR (E), THE HOLDER HAS DELIVERED TO THE COMPANY AND THE REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OF RECOGNIZED STANDING IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND THE REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT TO SUCH EFFECT.

Canadian Restrictive Legend
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE LISTED ON THE TORONTO STOCK EXCHANGE (THE “TSX”); HOWEVER, THE SAID SECURITIES CANNOT BE TRADED THROUGH THE FACILITIES OF THE TSX SINCE THEY ARE NOT FREELY TRANSFERABLE, AND CONSEQUENTLY ANY CERTIFICATE REPRESENTING SUCH SECURITIES IS NOT “GOOD DELIVERY” IN SETTLEMENT OF TRANSACTIONS ON THE TSX.
provided that in the case of a sale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder made pursuant to either (A) the provisions of Rule 144 of the United States Securities Act of 1933 (the “ 1933 Act ”); or (B) an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act, the Company shall, at the Company’s own cost, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the transfer agent to remove the U.S. Legend and deliver unlegended share certificates to the Holder within three trading days following the delivery by the Holder to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent of a share certificate endorsed with the U.S. Legend.  If the Company’s transfer agent fails to deliver an unlegended share certificate within such three trading day period, the Company will indemnify the Holder (other than U.S. investors that are (i) brokers employed by Sprott Global Resource Investments, Ltd. (the “ Placement Agent ”) or its affiliates or (ii) one of the Exploration Capital Limited Partnerships managed by the Placement Agent or its affiliates) for any damages and costs incurred as a result thereof, provided that: (i) such indemnity shall not extend to any lost profits of the Holder; and (ii) the aggregate amount of such indemnity in respect of any one legend removal shall not exceed US$5,000.  For greater clarity, if, in the case of a sale pursuant to, and subject to satisfaction of the conditions required by, (A) or (B) above, the Company or the Company’s transfer agent requires a legal opinion to remove the U.S. Legend from any certificates representing the Warrant Shares as contemplated in this section 10, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its legal counsel to deliver such legal opinion at the Company’s expense.
11. Amendments .
Any alteration, amendment or revision to this Warrant Certificate may only be made by a written agreement between the Company and the Holder.

(b) Unless otherwise expressly provided or unless the context otherwise requires, words importing the singular include the plural and vice versa and words importing gender include all genders.
(c) The use of the words, “includes” or “including” shall be deemed to mean “includes, without limitation”, or “including, without limitation”, as applicable, in each case whether or not they are in fact followed by such words or words of like import.
(d) For the purposes hereof, “business day” means any day except Saturday, Sunday or a statutory holiday in Vancouver, British Columbia and, if any period expires or any day on which any action is to be taken under this Warrant Certificate falls on a day which is not a business day, it shall be deemed to refer to the next business day.

13. Severability .
If any covenant or provision herein or any portion hereof is determined to be void, unenforceable or prohibited by the law of any province or the local requirements of any provincial or federal government authority, such shall not be deemed to affect or impair the validity of any other covenant or provision herein or a portion thereof, as the case may be, nor the validity of such covenant or provision or a portion thereof, as the case may be, in any other jurisdiction.

Attention: Tim Barry
                   Chief Executive Officer


Dear Sirs:

Re:               Provision of Placement Agent Services for your Private Placement

This letter (the “ Agreement ”) confirms the terms on which Sprott Global Resource Investments, Ltd., a California limited partnership (“ SGRIL ” or the “ Placement Agent ”), agrees to provide services as a placement agent (the “ Services ”) in respect of a private placement (the “ Placement ”) by Silver Bull Resources, Inc. (the “ Company ”) of up to 3,340,000 units (the “ Units ”) at a price of C$ 0.15 per Unit for proceeds of up to C$ 501,000.

SGRIL understands that:

(a) the common shares of the Company (the “ Common Shares ”) are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “ Exchange ”);

(b) each Unit will consist of one Common Share (a “ Unit Share ”) and one non-transferable share purchase warrant (a “ Warrant ”) entitling the purchase of one Common Share (a “ Warrant Share ”) for three years from the closing of the Placement (the “ Closing ”) at a price of C$ 0.16;

(c) if, commencing on the fourth month after the Closing, the closing price of the Common Shares on the Exchange is higher than C$ 0.30 for any 20 consecutive trading day period then on the 20 th consecutive trading day of any such period (the “ Acceleration Trigger Date ”) the expiry date of the Warrants may be accelerated to the 20 th trading day after the Acceleration Trigger Date by the issuance, within three trading days of the Acceleration Trigger Date, of a news release announcing such acceleration;

(d) if, at the time of exercise of the Warrant, the Company is no longer an issuer subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, of the United States of America (the “ Exchange Act ”), then the Warrant may be exercised by means of a Cashless Exercise Right in the same manner as the Compensation Warrants (as described and defined below); and
 

 
SILVER BULL RESOURCES, INC.

Page 2 of 19

 
 

(e) the Placement is subject to the approval of the Exchange.

The Placement is further described in the attached Term Sheet and any terms set out in the Term Sheet but not in this Agreement shall be incorporated into, and form a part of, this Agreement. In the event of a discrepancy between the terms of this Agreement and the Term Sheet, this Agreement shall govern.

Description of Services

The Services shall include:

(a) locating and introducing to the Company potential qualified investors (“ Investors ”) in the United States of America, its states, territories and possessions, and the District of Columbia (collectively, the “ United States ”) and outside of the United States and Canada with whom the Placement Agent has pre-existing business relationships and who the Placement Agent reasonably believes are qualified to participate in the Placement who might be willing to purchase Units on an exempt private placement basis;

(b) facilitating communication between the Company and the Investors and arranging for the Investors to receive, or directing them where to obtain, corporate and business related information of the Company from the Company’s website, SEDAR and EDGAR;

(c) introducing the Investors to the Company’s management and, if requested, assisting the Investors in completing a subscription agreement in the form provided by the Company to SGRIL for the Placement (“ Subscription Agreement ”); and

(d) gathering and forwarding the completed Subscription Agreements and the funds therefor to the Company to hold such funds, in trust, pending the Closing.

The Placement Agent shall provide the Services in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. The Company shall be under no obligation to accept subscriptions for Units from all or any of the Investors introduced by the Placement Agent.

Relationship between the Parties

The Company acknowledges and confirms that:

(a) the Placement Agent shall not have any liability to the Company if it is unable to locate any, or a sufficient number of, purchasers for the Placement;

(b) there is no agreement, commitment, arrangement or understanding pursuant to which the Placement Agent will act as advisor in respect of the Placement or in respect of a subsequent offering of securities of the Company; and

(c) the Placement Agent shall not bear any responsibility or assume any liability for any statements made by the Company to the Investors in connection with the Placement, including the accuracy of any representations made by the Company to any Investors in the Subscription Agreements provided by the Company.

Placement Agent’s Fee and Expenses

In consideration of the Services, the Placement Agent will, in respect of Units purchased by Investors introduced by, or whose subscriptions are attributable to the efforts of, the Placement Agent (excluding any Units that may be purchased by the Placement Agent), be:

(a) paid a fee equal to 6.0% of the proceeds from such Units;   and

(b) issued that number of non-transferable warrants (“ Compensation Warrants ”) as is equal to 6.0% of the number of such Units, each Compensation Warrant entitling the Placement Agent to purchase, for two years from the Closing and subject to the same acceleration provisions as the Warrants, one Warrant Share at a price equal to the greater of C$ 0.15 and the five day volume weighted average trading price preceding notice of the Placement to the Exchange.

(collectively, the “ Placement Agent’s Fee ”)

For the avoidance of doubt, the Placement Agent will not be entitled to any Placement Agent’s Fee in connection with a subscription from any Investor not introduced to the Company by the Placement Agent.  As of the date hereof, the Company anticipates that one investor not introduced to the Company by the Placement Agent will participate in the Placement, which investor is an entity organized in the British Virgin Islands.  The Placement Agent acknowledges that the payment of the Placement Agent’s Fee is subject to the approval of the Exchange.

The Placement Agent’s Fee will be paid, issued and delivered on or promptly after the Closing as directed in writing or e-mail by the Placement Agent.

If, at the time of exercise of the Compensation Warrant, the Company is no longer an issuer subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, then the Compensation Warrant may be exercised by means of a “cashless exercise” (the “ Cashless Exercise Right ”) whereby the Placement Agent shall be entitled to receive that number of Warrant Shares resulting from the following formula:

Where:

A = the average closing price for the Common Shares as quoted on the Exchange for the five consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date on which the Placement Agent elects to exercise the Compensation Warrant by means of the Cashless Exercise Right.

B = the then applicable exercise price of the Compensation Warrant.

X = the number of Warrant Shares that would otherwise have been issuable had the Placement Agent elected to exercise the Compensation Warrant by means of a cash exercise.

Conduct of the Services

The Placement Agent acknowledges that the Units, Unit Shares, Warrants, Compensation Warrants and Warrant Shares have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of the United States (the “ 1933 Act ”) or applicable state securities laws and may only be offered and sold in transactions not subject to, or pursuant to exemptions from, the registration requirements of the 1933 Act (and applicable state securities law). Accordingly, SGRIL shall restrict the Services to the location, identification and introduction to the Company of Investors who are:

(b) outside of the United States and Canada, are not U.S. Purchasers and are able to purchase such securities in an “offshore transaction” (as such term is defined in Rule 902(h) of Regulation S; “ Offshore Transaction ”) in accordance with Rule 903 of Regulation S and applicable local securities laws (“ Offshore Purchasers ”).

Placement Agent’s Representations, Warranties and Covenants

(b) the execution and delivery of and performance by the Placement Agent of this Agreement have been authorized by all necessary actions on the part of the Placement Agent;

(f) it is not now, and as a result of the sale of Units contemplated hereby will not be, required to be registered as an “investment company” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, of the United States; and

(g) all representations and warranties made by it in the Subscription Agreement are incorporated by reference herein and made to and for the benefit of the Placement Agent.

All representations and warranties contained herein are accurate as of the date hereof and will be accurate as of the date of the Closing.

Conditions of Closing

It shall be a condition precedent to the Closing, as it relates to Investors introduced by the Placement Agent, that:

(a) the Company shall

(i) prepare forms of the Subscription Agreement , the Warrant and Compensation Warrant certificates and any indentures and other agreements required in connection with the Placement, in consultation with the Placement Agent and its legal counsel, and

(ii) deliver to the Placement Agent a certificate of an executive officer of the Company regarding various factual matters, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Placement Agent and its legal counsel;

(b) the Placement Agent will provide a certificate, substantially in the form attached hereto, relating to the conduct of the Placement by it in the United States and to, and for the benefit of, the Company;

(c) the U.S. Purchasers and Offshore Purchasers will have each provided a fully completed and duly executed Subscription Agreement and any other certificates contemplated therein; and

(d) the Exchange shall have approved the Placement in respect of the subscriptions from Investors introduced by the Placement Agent.

Resale Restrictions and Legend Removal

The Placement Agent acknowledges that the Unit Shares, Warrants, Compensation Warrants and Warrant Shares will be:

(a) “restricted securities” under the 1933 Act and the certificates representing such securities shall bear a restrictive legend to the effect that they have not been registered under the 1933 Act or state securities laws and can only be offered, resold or otherwise transferred (and with respect to any Warrants, exercised) under certain conditions (“ U.S. Legend ”); and
 
 

SILVER BULL RESOURCES, INC.
July 7, 2016
Page 9 of 19
 
 
 

 
(b) subject to a four month restricted re-sale period in Canada and the certificates representing such securities shall bear a legend to that effect as required by National Instrument 45-102 Resale of Securities of the Canadian Securities Administrators (the “ NI 45-102 Legend ”).

The Placement Agent further acknowledges that the certificates representing such securities shall also bear the legend required by the Exchange (the “ Exchange Legend ”).

Commencing after four months from the Closing, the Company will promptly approve any requests to remove and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the prompt removal of the NI 45-102 Legend and Exchange Legend from certificates evidencing the Unit Shares and Warrant Shares held by U.S. Purchasers, Offshore Purchasers and the Placement Agent.

In the case of a sale of the Warrant Shares by the Placement Agent made pursuant to either (A) the provisions of Rule 144 of the 1933 Act; or (B) an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act, the Company shall, at the Company’s own cost, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the transfer agent to remove the U.S. Legend and deliver unlegended share certificates to the Placement Agent within three trading days following the delivery by the Placement Agent to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent of a share certificate endorsed with the U.S. Legend.  If the Company’s transfer agent fails to deliver an unlegended share certificate within such three trading day period, the Company will indemnify the Placement Agent (other than U.S. Investors that are (i) brokers employed by the Placement Agent or its affiliates or (ii) one of the Exploration Capital Limited Partnerships managed by the Placement Agent or its affiliates) for any damages and costs incurred as a result thereof, but: (i) such indemnity shall not extend to any lost profits of the Placement Agent; and (ii) the aggregate amount of such indemnity in respect of any one legend removal shall not exceed US$ 5,000. For the avoidance of doubt, if, in the case of a sale pursuant to, and subject to satisfaction of the conditions required by, (A) or (B) above, the Company or the Company’s transfer agent requires a legal opinion to remove the US Legend from any certificates representing the Warrant Shares, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its legal counsel to deliver such legal opinion at the Company’s expense.

“Piggyback” Registration Rights

If, at any time before the first anniversary of the expiry of the Compensation Warrants, the Company determines to prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement relating to an offering for the Company’s own account or the account of others under the 1933 Act of any of its equity securities, other than a registration statement on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the 1933 Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with the Company’s stock option or other employee benefit plans, then the Company shall deliver to the Placement Agent a written notice of such determination and, if within 15 days after the date of the delivery of such notice, the Placement Agent shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such registration statement all or any part of the Warrant Shares issued or issuable to the Placement Agent (and any securities issued or then issuable upon any stock split, dividend or other distribution, capitalization or similar event with respect to the foregoing) (collectively, the “ Registrable Securities ”) that the Placement Agent requests to be registered, but the Company shall not be required to register any Registrable Securities that (i) are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 of the 1933 Act, and (ii) would continue to be eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 of the 1933 Act if the Company ceased to comply with the current information requirements of Rule 144(c).  For the avoidance of doubt, the Investors will not receive, pursuant to the Placement, the Subscription Agreements or this Agreement, any demand registration rights that would otherwise entitle the Investors to require the Company to file a registration statement registering their securities.

Indemnification

Except for indemnification relating to the failure to deliver an unlegended share certificate as provided in the last paragraph under “Resale Restrictions and Legend Removal” above, the Company shall indemnify the Placement Agent against any liabilities arising hereunder as set out on the attached Indemnity.

Termination by the Placement Agent

(iii) would reasonably be expected to materially impair the Company’s ability to perform the obligations contemplated in this Agreement;

(ii) materially impair the Company’s ability to perform the obligations contemplated in this Agreement;
(d) there should develop, occur or come into effect or existence any event, action, state, condition or major financial occurrence of national or international consequence, including without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any military conflict, civil insurrection, or any terrorist action (whether or not in connection with such conflict or insurrection), or any law or regulation which, in the reasonable opinion of the Placement Agent, materially and adversely affects or involves, or will materially adversely affect or involve, the Canadian or United States financial markets, or prevent or materially restrict the trading of the Common Shares or the distribution of the Units or may materially and adversely affect the Company, its business or its securities, including the market price or value of the Common Shares, or which could materially impair the Company’s ability to perform the obligations contemplated in this Agreement;

Units:
Each Unit will consist of one common share in the capital of the Corporation (a “ Common Share ”) and one share purchase warrant (a “ Warrant ”).

Each Warrant will be non-transferable and entitle the purchase of one Common Share (a “ Warrant Share ”) for three years from the Closing Date at a price of C$ 0.16, subject to the Acceleration Provision (hereinafter defined).
   
Acceleration Provision:
If, commencing on the fourth month after the Closing Date, the closing price of the Common Shares on the TSX (as defined below) is higher than C$ 0.30 for 20 consecutive trading days then on the 20 th consecutive trading day (the “ Acceleration Trigger Date ”) the expiry date of the Warrants may be accelerated to the 20 th trading day after the Acceleration Trigger Date by the issuance, within three trading days of the Acceleration Trigger Date, of a news release announcing such acceleration.

1

 
 
   
Listing:
The Common Shares are currently listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“ TSX ”) and trade on the OTCQB Venture Marketplace (“ OTCQB ”) under the symbol " SVB ” and “ SVBL ”, respectively. The Corporation will make an application to the TSX to list the Common Shares comprising the Units and the Warrant Shares, which listing will be conditionally approved prior to the Closing Date.
   
Placement Agent’s Fee:
6.0% cash commission on subscriptions from new investors introduced to the Corporation by the Placement Agent plus that number of Placement Agent’s Warrants (as defined and set forth below) subject to the rules of the TSX.
 
The Placement Agent will not be entitled to any Placement Agent’s Fee or Placement Agent’s Warrants in connection with a subscription from any new investor not introduced to the Corporation by the Placement Agent. As of the date hereof, the Corporation anticipates that one investor not introduced to the Corporation by the Placement Agent will participate in the Offering, which investor is an entity organized in the British Virgin Islands.
   
Placement Agent’s Warrants:
On the Closing Date, the Corporation shall issue to the Placement Agent the number of non-transferable common share purchase warrants that equals 6.0% of the Units placed to new investors introduced to the Corporation by the Placement Agent. Each Placement Agent’s Warrant permits the purchase of one Warrant Share for two years from the Closing Date at the greater of the Unit Price and the five day VWAP preceding notice of the Offering to the TSX and is subject to the Acceleration Provision.
   
Placement Agent Agreement:
The Corporation will enter into a definitive placement agent agreement with the Placement Agent promptly after the execution of this Term Sheet and prior to the Closing Date. The Placement Agent Agreement shall include, without limitation, industry standard representations, warranties, covenants (including customary broker-dealer representations, warranties and covenants), conditions, and indemnities, and industry standard termination provisions including, without limitation, a disaster out, litigation out, regulatory out, market out, due diligence out and a material adverse change out customary for agreements of this nature, in each case exercisable prior to the Closing Date,   which clauses shall commence upon acceptance of this Term Sheet.
 
The Placement Agent will represent that none of it, any of its general partners or managing members, any director or executive officer of any of the foregoing, any other officer of any of the foregoing participating in the Offering, or any other officer or employee of any of the foregoing that has been or will be paid (directly or indirectly) remuneration for solicitation of purchasers in the Offering is subject to any of the " Bad Actor " disqualifications provisions described in Rule 506(d) under the 1933 Act.
   
Subscription Agreements:
The terms and conditions governing the Offering and other matters related to the Offering will be set out in the Placement Agent Agreement and in the respective subscription agreements with purchasers of Units (“ Subscription Agreements” ). In the event of any discrepancy between the terms described herein and a Placement Agent Agreement and those contained in the Subscription Agreements, the Subscription Agreements will govern.
   
U.S. Legend Removal:
The U.S. restrictive legends will not be removed from any Common Shares or Warrant Shares held by a purchaser of the Units or the Placement Agent, except in connection with the sale of the Common Shares or Warrant Shares by the purchaser or the Placement Agent (as the case may be) pursuant to (A) Rule 144 under the 1933 Act; or (B) an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act with respect to the sale of the Common Shares or the Warrant Shares by the purchaser or the Placement Agent (as the case may be). At the Corporation’s cost and subject to the foregoing, the Corporation will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its transfer agent to remove the U.S. restrictive legend and deliver unlegended share certificates to the purchaser or the Placement Agent (as the case may be) within three business days of presentation of a legended share certificate to it.
 
If the transfer agent fails to deliver the unlegended share certificate within three business days, the Corporation will indemnify any U.S. investor (other than U.S. investors that are (i) brokers employed by the Placement Agent or (ii) one of the Exploration Capital Limited Partnerships managed by the Placement Agent or its affiliates) for any damages and costs incurred (other than loss of profits) as a result thereof. The aggregate amount of such indemnity in respect of any one legend removal shall not exceed US$ 5,000.
 
Until the first anniversary of the expiration of the Warrants, the investors will be entitled to customary “piggyback” registration rights under the 1933 Act on any registration statement of the Corporation. For the avoidance of doubt, the investors will not receive demand registration rights that would otherwise entitle investors to require the Corporation to file a registration statement registering their securities.
 
 
 
2

 
 
   
Cashless Exercise of Warrants:
If at the time of exercise of Warrants or Placement Agent’s Warrants (as the case may be) the Corporation is no longer an issuer subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, then the holder of such Warrants or Placement Agent’s Warrants (as the case may be) may exercise such warrants, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise.”
   
Due Diligence:
Prior to the Closing Date, the Corporation shall allow and assist the Placement Agent and its legal counsel to conduct all reasonable due diligence investigations and provide the Placement Agent with written or oral due diligence responses (at the Placement Agent’s discretion) to formal due diligence questions, which the Placement Agent may reasonably require to fulfil its obligations as registrants in a private placement.
   
Jurisdiction:
This Term Sheet and all documentation associated with the Offering shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the laws of Canada applicable therein and the parties hereto irrevocably attorn to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of British Columbia.

INDEMNITY

The Company hereby agrees to indemnify and hold the Placement Agent and each of the directors, officers, employees and shareholders of the Placement Agent (together called the “ Placement Agent’s Group ”) harmless from and against any and all expenses, losses (other than loss of profits), claims, actions, damages or liabilities, whether joint or several (including amounts paid in reasonable settlement of any actions, suits, proceedings or claims), and the reasonable fees and expenses of their counsel that may be incurred in advising with respect to and defending any claim that may be made against the Placement Agent’s Group or to which the Placement Agent’s Group may become subject or otherwise involved in any capacity insofar as such expenses, losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon, directly or indirectly, any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant of the Company in this Agreement or the Subscription Agreement. This indemnity shall not apply to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment that has become non-appealable shall determine that:

(a) any member of the Placement Agent’s Group has, in the course of such performance, been negligent or dishonest, engaged in willful misconduct, acted in bad faith or committed any fraudulent act; and
(b) the expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as to which indemnification is claimed, were directly caused by such negligence, dishonesty, willful misconduct, bad faith or fraud.
If any claim contemplated hereby is asserted against, or any potential claim contemplated hereby comes to the knowledge of, any member (the “ Indemnified Party ”) of the Placement Agent’s Group, the Indemnified Party shall notify the Company as soon as possible of the nature of such claim (but any failure or delay to so notify shall not affect the Company’s liability under this indemnity except to the extent that such failure or delay prejudices the rights of the parties in defending such claim or results in increased liability to the Indemnified Party or the Company) and the Company shall be entitled (but not required) to assume the defense on behalf of the Indemnified Party of any suit brought to enforce such claim. Any such defense shall be through legal counsel acceptable to the Indemnified Party and no admission of liability shall be made by the Company or the Indemnified Party without, in each case, the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party and the Company, respectively, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. Any Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such suit and participate in the defense thereof and the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of that Indemnified Party unless:
(a) the Company fails to assume the defense of such suit on behalf of the Indemnified Party within a reasonable period of receiving notice of such suit and, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, the expiration of such period shall be deemed to occur on the second clear business day immediately preceding the date by which the Indemnified Party is required by law to take action (such as the filing of an appearance, notice or other document) in connection with defending such suit;
(b) the employment of such counsel has been authorized in writing by the Company; or
(c) the named parties to any such suit include both the Indemnified Party and the Company and the Indemnified Party has been advised by counsel that there may be one or more defenses available to the Indemnified Party different from or in addition to those available to the Company,
whereupon, in any of such cases, the Company shall not have the right to assume the defense of such suit on behalf of the Indemnified Party and shall be liable to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Indemnified Party but the Company shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all Indemnified Parties as a group.
 
1

 
 
No Indemnified Party will, without the Company’s prior written consent, settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any action, suit, proceeding, investigation or claim in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder.
If for any reason (other than the occurrence of one of the events described above) the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to the Placement Agent’s Group or insufficient to hold them harmless, then the Company shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Placement Agent’s Group as a result of such expense, loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Placement Agent on the other hand but also the relative fault of the Company and the Placement Agent’s Group, as well as any relevant equitable considerations provided that, in any event, the Company shall only contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Placement Agent’s Group as a result of such expense, loss, claim, damage or liability, any excess of such amount over the amount of the fees received by the Placement Agent hereunder.
The indemnity and contribution obligations of the Company shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have, extend to the Placement Agent’s Group on the same terms and conditions as set out herein and be binding upon and enure to the benefit of any successors, permitted assigns, heirs and personal representatives of any of the Placement Agent’s Group.
The foregoing provisions of this Indemnity shall survive the completion of the Services.

Number of Warrants:       [●]
Date: July [●], 2016
          
THIS CERTIFIES   THAT , for value received, [●] ( the “ Holder ”) is the registered holder of [●]   warrants (each a “ Warrant ”) to purchase shares of common stock, US$0.01 par value per share (“ Common Stock ”), of Silver Bull Resources, Inc. (the “ Company ”). Each Warrant shall entitle the Holder, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this certificate (this “ Warrant Certificate ”), to acquire from the Company one fully paid and non-assessable share of Common Stock (a “ Warrant Share ”) on payment of CDN$0.205 per share of Common Stock (the “ Exercise Price ”), all subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided, at any time commencing on the date hereof (the “ Effective Date ”) and continuing up to 4:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on July [●], 2018 (the “ Time of Expiry ”); provided that if, commencing on November [●], 2016, the closing price of the Common Stock of the Company on the TSX (as defined below) is higher than CDN$0.30 for 20 consecutive trading days, then on the 20th consecutive trading day (the “ Acceleration Trigger Date ”) the expiry date of the warrants may be accelerated to the 20th trading day after the Acceleration Trigger Date by the issuance, within three trading days of the Acceleration Trigger Date, of a news release announcing such acceleration.
1. Exercise of Warrants .
1.1              Election to Purchase.
The rights evidenced by this Warrant Certificate may be exercised by the Holder in whole or in part at any time commencing on the Effective Date, and continuing up to the Time of Expiry and in accordance with the provisions hereof.  The exercise may be effected by providing to the Company at its offices at Suite 1610, 777 Dunsmuir Street, Vancouver, B.C. V7Y 1K4, Canada (or such other address as may be notified in writing by the Company) (i) a duly completed and executed election to exercise form in substantially the form attached as Exhibit “1” hereto (the “ Election to Exercise ”) and (ii) payment of the Exercise Price by a certified cheque, bank draft or money order payable at par to the order of the Company, or by wire or electronic funds transfer to an account designated by the Company, in each case in the amount of the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of shares of Common Stock specified in the Election to Exercise. Such exercise shall be effective upon the personal delivery to, or if sent by mail or other means of transmission upon actual receipt by, the Company of a duly completed and executed Election to Exercise and the Exercise Price for the number of shares of Common Stock specified in the Election to Exercise (the “ Exercise Date ”).
 
1

 
 
1.2              Cashless Exercise.
If, at the time of exercise of the Warrant, the Company is no longer an issuer subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, then the Warrant may be exercised by means of a “cashless exercise” (the “ Cashless Exercise Right ”), whereby the Holder shall be entitled to receive that number of Warrant Shares resulting from the following formula:
Where:
A =   the Current Market Price per Share (as defined below) immediately preceding the date on which the Holder elects to exercise the Warrant by means of the Cashless Exercise Right.
B =    the then applicable exercise price of the Warrant.
X =    the number of Warrant Shares that would otherwise have been issuable had the Holder elected to exercise the Warrant by means of a cash exercise.
1.3              Partial Exercise.
If the Holder subscribes for a lesser number of shares of Common Stock than may be subscribed for pursuant to this Warrant Certificate, the Company shall, contemporaneously with the issuance of the certificates representing the Common Stock issuable on the exercise of the Warrants so exercised, issue to the Holder, without charge, a Warrant Certificate on identical terms in respect of that number of shares of Common Stock in respect of which the Holder has not exercised the rights evidenced by this Warrant Certificate.
1.4              Issuance of Common Stock.
The Company shall, as soon as possible after the Exercise Date, issue the number of shares of Common Stock specified in the Election to Exercise. The Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants shall be deemed to have been issued and the person or persons to whom such Common Stock is to be issued shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of such Common Stock on the Exercise Date.
1.5              Certificates.
As promptly as practicable after the Exercise Date (but no later than three business days following the Exercise Date), the Company shall issue and deliver or cause to be delivered to the Holder, registered in the name of the Holder, at the address specified therein, or, if not so specified in the Election to Exercise, cause to be held for collection by the Holder at the address of the Company as set out in subsection 1.1 (or at such additional place as may be decided by the Company from time to time and notified in writing to the Holder), certificates for that number of shares of Common Stock specified in the Election to Exercise, a replacement Warrant Certificate, if any, and a cheque representing the Fractional Cash Consideration (as defined below), if any.
1.6              Fractional Shares of Common Stock.
Fractional shares of Common Stock shall not be issued upon the exercise of any Warrants. The Holder shall be entitled to cash compensation in lieu of fractional shares of Common Stock of an amount in cash (the “ Fractional Cash Consideration ”) equal (computed in the case of a fraction of a cent to the next lower cent) to the value of the fractional share of Common Stock, in each case calculated on the basis of the Current Market Price per Share at the date of exercise of such Warrant.

For the purposes hereof, the words and terms defined below shall have the respective meanings specified therefor in this subsection 2.1:
(i) Current Market Price per Share ”, at any date, means the price per share of Common Stock (denominated in Canadian dollars based, if necessary, on the noon rate of exchange as reported by the Bank of Canada) equal to the VWAP for the five trading-days preceding such date (i) on the TSX, or (ii) if the Common Stock is not traded on the TSX, on any other recognized stock exchange, or (iii) if the Common Stock is not traded on a recognized stock exchange, on the over-the-counter market. If the Common Stock is not then traded in the over-the-counter market or on a recognized stock exchange, the Current Market Price of the Common Stock shall be the fair market value of the Common Stock as determined in good faith by the board of directors of the Company after consultation with an internationally recognized investment dealer or investment banker;
(ii) director ” means a director of the Company from time to time and reference herein to an “ action by the directors ” means an action by the directors of the Company as a board or, whenever duly empowered, an action by a committee of directors;

(iv) recognized stock exchange ” means a stock exchange or quotation system recognized by the Canadian Securities Administrators;
(v) TSX ” means the Toronto Stock Exchange; and
(vi) VWAP ”, for any period, means the volume weighted average trading price of the Common Stock, calculated by dividing the total value by the total volume of Common Stock traded for the trading days included in the relevant period.
2.2              Adjustments.
The Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants will be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of any of the events and in the manner provided as follows:
(a) If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry the Company shall:
(i) declare a dividend or make a distribution on the Common Stock payable in Common Stock (or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Stock)
(ii) subdivide, redivide or change the outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares of Common Stock; or
(iii) reduce, combine or consolidate the outstanding Common Stock into a lesser number of shares of Common Stock,
 
3

(any of such events in paragraphs (i), (ii) or (iii) above being called a   Common Stock Reorganization ”), then effective immediately after the record date or effective date, as the case may be, at which the holders of Common Stock are determined for the purposes of the Common Stock Reorganization, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to a price determined by multiplying the applicable Exercise Price in effect on such effective date or record date by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such effective date or record date before giving effect to such Common Stock Reorganization and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such Common Stock Reorganization (including, in the case where securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Stock are distributed, the number of additional shares of Common Stock that would have been outstanding had such securities been exchanged for or converted into Common Stock immediately after giving effect to such Common Stock Reorganization).
(b) If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry the Company shall fix a record date for the issuing of rights, options or warrants to all or substantially all of the holders of the Common Stock entitling them for a period expiring not more than forty-five (45) days after such record date (the “ Rights Period ”) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock) at a price per share (or having a conversion or exchange price per share) which is less than 95% of the Current Market Price per Share as of three days prior to the record date for such issue (any of such events being called a “ Rights Offering ”), then effective immediately after the end of the Rights Period the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to a price determined by multiplying the applicable Exercise Price in effect at the end of the Rights Period by a fraction the numerator of which shall be the sum of:
(i) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the record date for the Rights Offering; and
(ii) a number determined by dividing (A) either (i) the product of the number of shares of Common Stock issued or subscribed during the Rights Period upon exercise of the rights, warrants or options under the Rights Offering and the price at which such Common Stock is offered, or (ii) as the case may be, the product of the number of shares of Common Stock for or into which the convertible or exchangeable securities offered during the Rights Period upon exercise of the rights, warrants or options under the Rights Offering are exchangeable or convertible and the exchange or conversion price of the convertible or exchangeable securities so issued, by (B) the Current Market Price per Share as of three days prior to the record date for the Rights Offering, and
the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including the number of shares of Common Stock actually issued or subscribed for during the Rights Period upon exercise of the rights, warrants or options under the Rights Offering) or which would be outstanding upon the conversion or exchange of all convertible or exchangeable securities issued during the Rights Period upon exercise of the rights, warrants or options under the Rights Offering, as applicable, in each case after giving effect to the Rights Offering.
In order to give effect to the provisions of subsection 2.2(e) in the circumstances described below, if the Holder shall have exercised its right to purchase Common Stock during the period beginning immediately after the record date for a Rights Offering and ending on the last day of the Rights Period therefor, in addition to the Common Stock to which it is otherwise entitled upon such exercise, then the Holder shall be entitled to that number of additional shares of Common Stock equal to the result obtained when the difference, if any, between the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the end of such Rights Offering and the Exercise Price, as adjusted for such Rights Offering pursuant to this subsection 2.2(b), is multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of the Warrants held by the Holder during such period, and the resulting product is divided by the Exercise Price, as adjusted for such Rights Offering pursuant to this subsection 2.2(b). Such additional shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued to the Holder immediately following the end of the Rights Period and a certificate for such additional shares of Common Stock shall be delivered to the Holder within 10 business days following the end of the Rights Period.
 
4

 
(c) If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry the Company shall fix a record date for the payment, issue or distribution to all or substantially all of the holders of the Common Stock of (i) a dividend, (ii) any property, cash or assets (including evidences of indebtedness), or (iii) rights, options, warrants, or other securities (including, without limitation, securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock), and such payment, issue or distribution does not constitute a Dividend Paid in the Ordinary Course, a Common Stock Reorganization or a Rights Offering (any of such non-excluded events being herein called a “ Special Distribution ”), the Exercise Price shall be adjusted effective immediately after such record date to a price determined by multiplying the applicable Exercise Price in effect on such record date by a fraction:
(i) the numerator of which shall be:
(1) the product of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such record date and the Current Market Price per Share as of three days prior to such record date; less
(2) the aggregate fair market value, as determined by action by the directors (whose determination shall be conclusive) and subject to the prior approval of the TSX and any other stock exchange or market on which the Common Stock may be listed or traded, to the holders of the Common Stock of such dividend, property, cash, assets, rights, options, warrants or other securities so paid, issued or distributed less the aggregate fair market value, as determined by action of the directors (whose determination shall be conclusive) and subject to the prior approval of the TSX and any other stock exchange or market on which the Common Stock may be listed or traded, of the consideration, if any, received therefor by the Company, and
(ii) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such record date multiplied by the Current Market Price per Share as of three days prior to such record date.
Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed. To the extent that such payment, issuance or distribution is not so made, the Exercise Price shall be readjusted effective immediately to the Exercise Price which would then be in effect based upon such payment, issuance or distribution actually made.
(d) If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry there shall be a reorganization, reclassification or other change of Common Stock at any time outstanding or change of the Common Stock into other shares or into other securities (other than a Common Stock Reorganization), or a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger of the Company with or into any other corporation or other entity, or a sale, lease, exchange or transfer of all or substantially all of the undertaking or assets of the Company to another person in which the holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive shares, other securities or property, including cash (any of such events being herein called a “ Capital Reorganization ”), if the Holder exercises its right to subscribe for and purchase Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of the Warrants after the effective date of such Capital Reorganization then the Holder shall be entitled to receive, and shall accept for the same aggregate consideration in lieu of the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder was theretofore entitled upon such exercise, the aggregate number of shares, other securities or other property, including cash, which it would have received as a result of such Capital Reorganization had the Holder exercised its right to acquire Common Stock immediately prior to the effective date or record date, as the case may be, of the Capital Reorganization and had the Holder been the holder of such Common Stock on such effective date or record date, as the case may be.
 
5

 
(e) If determined appropriate by the directors, acting reasonably, and subject to any required prior approval of the TSX and any other stock exchange or market on which the Common Stock may be listed or traded, appropriate adjustments shall be made in the application of the provisions set forth in this subsection 2.2, with respect to any shares, other securities or other property, including cash, deliverable upon the exercise of any Warrant. Any such adjustments shall be made by and set forth in an agreement supplemental hereto approved by action by the directors, acting reasonably, and shall for all purposes be conclusively deemed to be appropriate adjustments.
(f) If and whenever at any time prior to the Time of Expiry there shall occur a Common Stock Reorganization which results in an adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to the provisions of this subsection 2.2, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable (at the adjusted Exercise Price) upon the exercise of Warrants shall be adjusted contemporaneously with the adjustment of the Exercise Price by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock theretofore issuable on the exercise thereof by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the applicable Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the applicable Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment.
(g) In case the Company after the date of issue of the Warrants shall take any action affecting the Common Stock, other than action described above in this subsection 2.2, which in the opinion of the directors, acting reasonably, would materially affect the rights of the Holder and/or the acquisition rights of the Holder, then that number of shares of Common Stock which are to be received upon the exercise of the Warrants shall be adjusted in such manner, if any, and at such time, by action of the directors, acting reasonably, as they may determine to be equitable to the Holder in the circumstances, but subject in all cases to any necessary regulatory approval, including the prior consent of the TSX and any other stock exchange or market on which the Common Stock may be listed or traded.
2.3              Rules.
For the purposes of subsection 2.2 hereof, any adjustment shall be made successively whenever an event referred to therein shall occur, subject to the following provisions:
(a) no adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be required unless such adjustment would result in a change of at least 1% in the prevailing Exercise Price and no adjustment in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants will be required to be made unless the cumulative effect of such adjustment or adjustments would change the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of a Warrant by at least one share of Common Stock and, for greater clarity, any adjustment which, except for the qualification of this section, would otherwise have been required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company be obligated to issue fractional shares of Common Stock or fractional interests in Common Stock upon exercise of a Warrant;
(b) if a dispute shall at any time arise with respect to adjustments to the Exercise Price or the number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the exercise rights represented by a Warrant, such disputes shall be conclusively determined by the Company’s auditors or, if they are unable or unwilling to act, by such other firm of independent chartered accountants as may be selected by action by the directors and any such determination shall, absent manifest or clerical error, be conclusive evidence of the correctness of any adjustments made; and
(c) if the Company shall set a record date to determine the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive any dividend or distribution or any subscription or purchase rights, options or warrants and shall thereafter and before the distribution to such shareholders of any such dividend, distribution or subscription or purchase rights legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend, distribution or subscription or purchase rights, then no adjustment in the Exercise Price or the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants shall be required by reason of the setting of such record date.
 
6

 
2.4              Taking of Actions.
As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which would require an adjustment pursuant to subsection 2.2 hereof, the Company shall take any action that may, in the opinion of counsel, be necessary in order that the Company may validly and legally issue as fully paid and non-assessable all of the shares of Common Stock which the Holder is entitled to receive in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant Certificate.
2.5              Notice.

In case any adjustment for which a certificate has been given is not then determinable, the Company shall promptly after such adjustment is determinable deliver to the Holder a certificate of the Company showing how such adjustment was computed. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the register of transfers and share transfer books for the Common Stock shall be open during normal business hours for inspection by the Holder, and that the Company will not take any action which might deprive the Holder of the opportunity of exercising the rights of subscription contained in this Warrant Certificate, during such 10 business day period.

U.S. Legend
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “1933 ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAW.  THE HOLDER HEREOF, BY PURCHASING SUCH SECURITIES, AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF SILVER BULL RESOURCES, INC. (THE “COMPANY”) THAT SUCH SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED ONLY (A) TO THE COMPANY, (B) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE 1933 ACT AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, (C) PURSUANT TO RULE 904 OF REGULATION S OF THE 1933 ACT, IF AVAILABLE, AND PURSUANT TO LOCAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS, (D) IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE 1933 ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144 THEREUNDER, IF AVAILABLE, AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR (E) IN A TRANSACTION THAT DOES NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE 1933 ACT AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, PROVIDED THAT, IN THE CASE OF (C), (D) OR (E), THE HOLDER HAS DELIVERED TO THE COMPANY AND THE REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OF RECOGNIZED STANDING IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND THE REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT TO SUCH EFFECT.

Canadian Restrictive Legend
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE LISTED ON THE TORONTO STOCK EXCHANGE (THE “TSX”); HOWEVER, THE SAID SECURITIES CANNOT BE TRADED THROUGH THE FACILITIES OF THE TSX SINCE THEY ARE NOT FREELY TRANSFERABLE, AND CONSEQUENTLY ANY CERTIFICATE REPRESENTING SUCH SECURITIES IS NOT “GOOD DELIVERY” IN SETTLEMENT OF TRANSACTIONS ON THE TSX.
provided that in the case of a sale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder made pursuant to either (A) the provisions of Rule 144 of the United States Securities Act of 1933 (the “ 1933 Act ”); or (B) an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act, the Company shall, at the Company’s own cost, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the transfer agent to remove the U.S. Legend and deliver unlegended share certificates to the Holder within three trading days following the delivery by the Holder to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent of a share certificate endorsed with the U.S. Legend.  If the Company’s transfer agent fails to deliver an unlegended share certificate within such three trading day period, the Company will indemnify the Holder (other than U.S. investors that are (i) brokers employed by Sprott Global Resource Investments, Ltd. (the “ Placement Agent ”) or its affiliates or (ii) one of the Exploration Capital Limited Partnerships managed by the Placement Agent or its affiliates) for any damages and costs incurred as a result thereof, provided that: (i) such indemnity shall not extend to any lost profits of the Holder; and (ii) the aggregate amount of such indemnity in respect of any one legend removal shall not exceed US$5,000.  For greater clarity, if, in the case of a sale pursuant to, and subject to satisfaction of the conditions required by, (A) or (B) above, the Company or the Company’s transfer agent requires a legal opinion to remove the U.S. Legend from any certificates representing the Warrant Shares as contemplated in this section 10, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its legal counsel to deliver such legal opinion at the Company’s expense.

(b) Unless otherwise expressly provided or unless the context otherwise requires, words importing the singular include the plural and vice versa and words importing gender include all genders.
(c) The use of the words, “includes” or “including” shall be deemed to mean “includes, without limitation”, or “including, without limitation”, as applicable, in each case whether or not they are in fact followed by such words or words of like import.
(d) For the purposes hereof, “business day” means any day except Saturday, Sunday or a statutory holiday in Vancouver, British Columbia and, if any period expires or any day on which any action is to be taken under this Warrant Certificate falls on a day which is not a business day, it shall be deemed to refer to the next business day.
