The closing of the State Bond Loan permitted the retirement of the Company’s debts with RMB Australia Holdings Ltd. (“RMBAH”). The two RMBAH loan facilities served as interim financing to complete construction at Lost Creek and begin production uninterrupted while the State Bond Loan was advanced to closing. The early repayment of the second loan facility triggered a rebate of half of the arrangement fee paid by the Company (US$450,000 credited) while half of the warrants issued in relation to that loan were also cancelled (1,550,400 warrants for common shares cancelled). A portion of the RMBAH first loan facility remains available to the Company to be redrawn for specified purposes.

Ur-Energy Closes US$34,000,000 State Bond Loan,

Retires Earlier Debts and Provides Lost Creek Update

Littleton, Colorado (PR Newswire – October 24, 2013) Ur-Energy Inc. (TSX:URE, NYSE MKT:URG) (“Ur-Energy” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Lost Creek ISR, LLC, has closed the previously announced US$34 million Sweetwater County, State of Wyoming, Taxable Industrial Development Revenue Bond (the “State Bond Loan”).

The State Bond Loan calls for payments of interest at a fixed rate of 5.75% per annum on a quarterly basis commencing January 1, 2014. The principal is payable in 28 quarterly installments which do not commence until January 1, 2015. The loan matures in October 2021. The State Bond Loan is secured by the assets of the Lost Creek Project. Closing and other fees and expenses for the State Bond Loan totaled approximately 2.3% of the loan amount.

Ur-Energy President and CEO Wayne Heili said, “I am very pleased to announce the successful completion of this funding. It is a testament to the viability of the Lost Creek project that it can stand up to the State’s lengthy and rigorous due diligence process. Converting the Company’s debt instruments to the more favorable State Bond Loan provides a manageable debt service schedule that will serve the Company and its shareholders well. Ongoing operations at the Lost Creek Project will provide Ur-Energy with the opportunity to advance its Wyoming growth strategy.” Heili added, “I would like to thank the Sweetwater County Commissioners for their demonstrated support of the Lost Creek Project as well as Governor Matt Mead, State Treasurer Mark Gordon and the Wyoming Business Council. Their determination to utilize this State program, which is funded by the State’s Permanent Mineral Trust Fund, for our Lost Creek uranium project demonstrates the current administration’s dedication to our State’s energy economy. As a productive part of that economy, Ur-Energy and its 75 Wyoming employees exemplify the type of project the Industrial Development Revenue Bond Program was designed for.”

The closing of the State Bond Loan permitted the retirement of the Company’s debts with RMB Australia Holdings Ltd. (“RMBAH”). The two RMBAH loan facilities served as interim financing to complete construction at Lost Creek and begin production uninterrupted while the State Bond Loan was advanced to closing. The early repayment of the second loan facility triggered a rebate of half of the arrangement fee paid by the Company (US$450,000 credited) while half of the warrants issued in relation to that loan were also cancelled (1,500,400 warrants for common shares cancelled). A portion of the RMBAH first loan facility remains available to the Company to be redrawn for specified purposes. Roger Smith, CFO of Ur-Energy, stated, “We would again like to express our appreciation to RMB for its commitment to our project and company. We look forward to working with this well-respected international banking partner on future opportunities.”

(12)         There is no default on the part of Borrower under this Financing Agreement or any document executed by Borrower in connection herewith and no event has occurred which with notice or the passage of time or both would constitute a default hereunder or under any such document.

(2)         Borrower has advanced at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the total cost of the Project, as required by Wyo. Stat. § 9-4-715(m)(ii)(D).

(3)         Subject to the terms of this Financing Agreement, the Bond Purchase Agreement, the Indenture and the Security Documents, the Project and the Collateral and Mortgaged Property securing the Bond shall be the sole and exclusive property of, and title thereto shall continue to be vested in, the Borrower, except with respect to the State Leases and except with respect to Unpatented Mining Claims, to the paramount title of the United States and the rights of third parties to the lands within such Unpatented Mining Claims pursuant to statute.

(4)         With the exception of the sale of Ore in the ordinary course of business, the Borrower will not dispose of or remove or permit the disposal or removal of any portion of the Project or the Collateral except in accordance with the provisions of this Section:

(a)         In any instance where the Borrower in its sound discretion determines that any portion of the Project or the Collateral has become inadequate, obsolete, worn out, unsuitable, undesirable or unnecessary for the operation of the Project or security for the Bond, the Borrower may, at its expense, dispose, or remove and dispose of a part of the Project or the Collateral and substitute or install other items of machinery, Equipment or other personal property, not necessarily having the same function, provided that such removal and substitution shall not impair the operating utility and unity of the Project or the security for the Bond. All substituted items shall be acquired or installed free and clear of all liens or encumbrances other than Permitted Encumbrances, and shall become part of the Project and the Collateral and be subject to the Security Documents.

(b)         Upon the written approval of the Purchaser, the Borrower may also enter into leases for real property related to the Project and include within the Project any improvements thereon that are owned by the Borrower.

(c)         The Borrower will obtain the written consent of the Purchaser, will cooperate with the Trustee and the Purchaser and will pay all costs, including reasonable counsel fees, incurred in subjecting to the lien of the Security Documents all items of property or leasehold interests substituted and the Issuer, the Trustee and the Purchaser will cooperate with the Borrower in securing, if necessary, release of property for which substitution, disposal or abandonment is made under the Security Documents and in providing such documents as may be required to facilitate the removal or substitution.

(d)         Prior to the abandonment, disposition or release of part of the Interests in Real Estate, including Unpatented Mining Claims or State Leases, which form part of the Collateral, the Borrower shall (i) in the case of the Unpatented Mining Claims identified in EXHIBIT A-1 to the Mortgage, or the State Leases identified in EXHIBIT B to the Mortgage, report to the Trustee and the Purchaser, by Borrower’s Representative certificate, a description of the Unpatented Mining Claims or State Leases to be abandoned or disposed of and the reasons for such abandonment or disposal, including the proposed value of such Collateral, and obtain prior written consent of the Trustee and the Purchaser before abandoning or disposing of such Unpatented Mining Claims or State Leases; or, (ii) in the case of the Unpatented Mining Claims identified in EXHIBIT A-2 to the Mortgage, Borrower may abandon or dispose of not more than twenty percent (20%) of the Unpatented Mining Claims in such EXHIBIT A-2 in any calendar year, such twenty percent (20%) to be calculated based on the number of Unpatented Mining Claims existing as of January 1 of each calendar year, without obtaining prior written consent of the Trustee and the Purchaser, provided that Borrower shall provide notice to the Trustee and Purchaser, by Borrower’s Representative certificate, on or before November 1 of each calendar year, of the specific Unpatented Mining Claims to be abandoned or disposed of, the method of selection of such Unpatented Mining Claims, the reason for abandoning or disposing of such Unpatented Mining Claims and the proposed value of such Collateral. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no more than fifty percent (50%) of the number of Unpatented Mining Claims in EXHIBIT A-2 as of the Closing Date may be abandoned pursuant to this subsection 3.01(4)(d) without the consent of the Purchaser. If Borrower or any affiliated entity of Borrower should reacquire any of the Unpatented Mining Claims listed in either EXHIBIT A-1 or EXHIBIT A-2 that have been abandoned or disposed of during the term of the Loan, such reacquired Unpatented Mining Claims shall become Collateral and subject to the lien of the Security Documents. At such time that any such Unpatented Mining Claims are reacquired, Borrower shall give written notice to the Trustee and the Purchaser, by Borrower’s Representative certificate, of the particular Unpatented Mining Claims and the proposed value of such Collateral.

(e)         Subject to the provisions of subsections (a) and (d), in the case of the disposition of any part of the Collateral, the Borrower shall report to the Trustee and the Purchaser, by Borrower’s Representative certificate, a description of the Collateral to be disposed of and the proposed value of such Collateral. If the Purchaser does not agree with the amount that the Borrower proposes to receive from such disposition, the Purchaser may engage a consultant, at the Borrower’s expense, to obtain verification of value. Upon disposal of part of the Project or Collateral as described in subsections (a) and (d) above, and provided the operating utility and unity of the Project are not impaired, the Borrower may decide not to make any substitution and installation of other items of property; provided, however, in the case of the sale, trade-in or other disposition of part of the Project or Collateral for which no substitution is to be made, the Borrower shall pay to the Trustee for deposit in the Debt Service Fund the sale proceeds, the credit received upon trade-in, or an amount equal to the value of the part of the Project or Collateral (in the case of another disposition) as determined by the Borrower (or the consultant, as the case may be). Nothing in this Section 3.01 is intended or shall be deemed to qualify or otherwise limit the Borrower̓s Obligations under Section 4.02 hereof. Nothing contained in this Section shall relieve the Borrower from making all Loan Payments payable as provided in this Agreement.

Section 3.02.         Issuance of the Bond; Application of Bond Proceeds. The Issuer shall make the Loan to Borrower from the proceeds of the Bond, which Issuer shall sell and cause to be delivered to the Purchaser in accordance with the Bond Purchase Agreement and the Indenture. The Borrower hereby approves the issuance of the Bond and all terms and conditions of the Bond, the Bond Purchase Agreement, the Indenture and the Security Documents.

Issuer shall cause the proceeds of the Bond to be expended and deposited by the Trustee as follows:

$34,000,000 shall be deposited into the Project Fund. All Bond proceeds deposited in the Project Fund shall be available for the payment of Project Costs upon receipt by the Trustee of a completed Disbursement Request in the form set forth in EXHIBIT D hereto. Borrower shall obtain from the Purchaser the written approval of the disbursements prior to the submission of the form to the Trustee for payment.

For purposes of complying with the requirements of this Section, the Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon the certified requisition of the Borrower, as approved by the Purchaser. The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any certificate or requisition. The Trustee shall not be responsible for determining whether the funds on hand in the Project Fund are sufficient to complete the purchase, construction or installation of the Project. The Trustee shall not be responsible to collect lien waivers, and it is acknowledged that the Trustee has no responsibility to verify or confirm that any lien waivers attached by the Borrower on any requisition are accurate or complete.

Section 3.03.         Certificate of Completion. The Completion Date for the Project shall be the date on which acquisition, construction, development and equipping of the Project have been completed substantially in accordance with the plans and specifications therefor, as determined by the Borrower and as set forth in the certificate furnished by the Borrower to the Trustee in accordance with this Section 3.03. As soon as reasonably practicable after completion of acquisition, construction, development and equipping of the Project, and in any event not more than ninety (90) days thereafter, the Borrower shall furnish to the Trustee a Borrower’s Representative certificate (the “Certificate of Completion”) (i) stating that the Borrower has determined that the acquisition, construction, development and equipping of all portions of the Project have been completed substantially in accordance with the plans and specifications therefor as of the Completion Date specified in such Certificate; and (ii) stating that, except for any amounts that are subject to a bona fide dispute, all Project Costs have been paid. Such Certificate of Completion may state that it is given without prejudice to any rights against third parties which exist at the date thereof or which may subsequently come into being.

If on the Completion Date there are Bond proceeds which exceed funds required to pay Project Costs, such excess Bond proceeds shall be transferred by the Trustee to the Debt Service Fund to be applied toward payment of principal amounts due on the Bond.

The Issuer agrees, upon the terms and conditions herein specified, to lend to the Borrower the proceeds received by the Issuer from the sale of the Bond, by causing such proceeds to be deposited with the Trustee for disposition as provided herein and in the Indenture; and the obligation of the Issuer to make the Loan shall be deemed fully discharged upon so depositing the proceeds of the Bond with the Trustee.

Section 4.02.         Loan Payments . Subject to the Borrower’s right of prepayment granted in Section 10.01 of this Financing Agreement, the Borrower agrees to repay the Loan in installments of Loan Payments as follows:

(3)         All Loan Payments shall be made directly to the Trustee at its designated corporate trust office in Denver, Colorado, for the account of the Issuer, and shall be deposited by the Trustee in the Debt Service Fund. In the event the Borrower should fail to make any of the payments required in this Section 4.02, the item so in default shall continue as an obligation of the Borrower until the amount in default shall have been fully paid, and the Borrower agrees to pay the same with interest thereon (including to the extent permitted by law, interest on overdue installments of interest) at the rate borne by the Bond.

(4)         Sums set aside in the Debt Service Fund to prepay a portion of the Principal Balance of the Bond shall be deemed available as a credit against Loan Payments required to be made hereunder.

(2)         to the Issuer, all reasonable expenses directly incurred by the Issuer to perform its obligations or exercise its rights under this Financing Agreement, and all other reasonable expenses incurred by the Issuer in relation to the Project which are not otherwise required to be paid by the Borrower under the terms of this Financing Agreement;

(3)         to the Purchaser, all reasonable expenses directly incurred by the Purchaser to perform its obligations or exercise its rights under this Financing Agreement, and all other reasonable expenses incurred by the Purchaser in relation to the Project which are not otherwise required to be paid by the Borrower under the terms of this Financing Agreement;

4)         to the Trustee or the Purchaser the amount of all advances made by the Trustee or the Purchaser, with interest thereon, as provided in Section 5.04 of this Financing Agreement; and

The Borrower will not suspend or discontinue any such payments, and will perform and observe all of its other agreements in this Financing Agreement, and will not terminate this Financing Agreement for any cause, including but not limited to any acts or circumstances that may constitute failure of consideration, destruction or damage to the Collateral, the Mortgaged Property or the Borrower’s business, the taking of the Mortgaged Property or the Borrower’s business by condemnation or otherwise, the lawful prohibition of the Borrower’s use of the Project, or Borrower’s business, the interference with such use by any private person or corporation, the invalidity or unenforceability or lack of due authorization or other infirmity of this Financing Agreement, or lack of right, power or authority of the Issuer to enter into this Financing Agreement, eviction by paramount title, commercial frustration of purpose, bankruptcy or insolvency of the Issuer or the Trustee, change in the laws or administrative rulings or actions of the United States of America or of the State or any political subdivision thereof, or failure of the Issuer to perform and observe any agreement, whether express or implied or any duty, liability or obligation arising out of or connected with this Financing Agreement, or for any other cause whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, any present or future law to the contrary notwithstanding, it being the intention of the parties hereto that the Loan Payments and other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be paid in full when due without any delay or diminution whatever.

Section 4.05.         Borrower’s Remedies . Nothing contained in this ARTICLE shall be construed to release the Issuer from the performance of any of its agreements herein, and if the Issuer should fail to perform any such agreements, the Borrower may institute such action against the Issuer as the Borrower may deem necessary to compel the performance so long as such action shall not violate the Borrower’s agreements in Section 4.04 or diminish or delay the amounts required to be paid by the Borrower pursuant to Section 4.02 of this Financing Agreement. The Borrower acknowledges however and agrees that any pecuniary obligation of the Issuer created by or arising out of this Financing Agreement shall be payable solely out of the proceeds derived from this Financing Agreement, the sale of the Bond, any insurance and condemnation awards received pursuant to the Mortgage or upon the sale or other disposition of the Collateral and the Mortgaged Property upon a default by the Borrower or otherwise.

ARTICLE 9

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

Section 9.01.         Event of Default Defined. Any of the following events is hereby defined as and declared to be and to constitute an Event of Default (whatever the reason for such an Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

(1)         If default shall be made in the due and punctual payment of any installment of interest on the Note when it becomes due and payable; or

(2)         If default shall be made in the due and punctual payment of any installment of principal on the Note when it becomes due and payable; or

(3)         If default shall be made in the due and punctual payment of any other money required to be paid to the Issuer under the provisions hereof and such default shall have continued for a period of ten (10) days after written notice thereof, specifying such default, shall have been given by the Issuer or the Trustee to the Borrower; or

(4)         If default shall be made in the performance or observance of any other of the covenants, agreements or conditions on the part of the Borrower contained in this Financing Agreement or the Note, and such default shall have continued for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof given in the manner provided in clause (3) above, without Borrower’s commencing to cure the default where permitted; or

(5)         If any representation or warranty by the Borrower is found, by the Issuer, the Trustee or the Purchaser, to be false or misleading; or

(6)         If Borrower makes a contract or arrangement of any kind (other than with respect to Permitted Encumbrances), the performance of which contract or arrangement by another party does or could give rise to a lien on the Project, without first obtaining the written authorization of the Purchaser, and such default shall have continued for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof given in the manner provided in clause (3) above, without Borrower’s commencing to cure the default; or

(7)         If an Event of Default as defined in the Indenture, or any breach of any provision of the Mortgage, has occurred and is continuing, taking into account any applicable cure or grace period as may be provided in the Indenture or the Mortgage; or

(8)         If the Borrower or either of the Guarantors shall file a petition in bankruptcy or is adjudicated as bankrupt or insolvent, or makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors or consents to the appointment of a receiver of itself or of its property, or institutes proceedings for its reorganization, or proceedings instituted by others for its reorganization are not dismissed within thirty (30) days after the institution thereof, or a receiver or liquidator of the Borrower or either of the Guarantors of any substantial portion of its property is appointed and the order appointing such receiver or liquidator shall not be vacated within thirty (30) days after the entry thereof.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as an event of Force Majeure is occurring and the Borrower or either of the Guarantors is unable to perform or observe any agreement, term or condition hereof which would give rise to an Event of Default under subsection (4) above, neither the Borrower nor the Guarantor shall be deemed in default during the continuance of such inability. However, the Borrower or the Guarantor shall immediately notify the Trustee and the Issuer of the extent and nature of any problem created by an event of Force Majeure and limit delays in performance to that required by the event and take all reasonable steps to minimize delays. This provision is not effective, however, unless the failure to perform is beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the Borrower or the Guarantor.

Once the event of Force Majeure is over, the Borrower or the Guarantor must make all reasonable efforts to become in compliance as soon as possible. If the Borrower does not proceed diligently and come into compliance within 30 days after the event is over, it is then in default.

Section 9.02.         Remedies. Whenever an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Issuer, the Trustee, or the Purchaser as provided in Section 8.08 of the Indenture, may take one or any combination of the following remedial steps:

(a)         if and only if the Trustee has declared the Principal Balance of the Bond immediately due and payable by written notice to the Borrower, declare an amount equal to all amounts then due and payable on the Note, whether by acceleration of maturity (as provided in the Security Documents) or otherwise, to be immediately due and payable under this Financing Agreement, whereupon the same shall become immediately due and payable; or

(b)         take whatever action at law or in equity may appear necessary or desirable to collect the amounts then due and thereafter to become due, or to enforce performance and observance of any obligation, agreement or covenant of the Borrower under this Financing Agreement.

Any amounts collected pursuant to action taken under this Section shall, subject to Sections 8.06 and 9.02 of the Indenture, first be applied, on a parity basis, to pay costs incurred by the Issuer, the Trustee and the Purchaser in connection therewith and the remainder shall be applied to the Principal Balance due and payable under the Bond.

The Borrower and the Issuer agree that monetary damages may not be an adequate remedy for default in compliance with non-monetary covenants in this Financing Agreement and, therefore, the Issuer or Trustee, with the written approval of the Purchaser, may seek the remedy of specific enforcement.

Section 9.03.         No Remedy Exclusive. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Issuer, the Trustee or the Purchaser is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under this Financing Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof, but any such right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. In order to entitle the Issuer, the Trustee or the Purchaser to exercise any remedy reserved to it in this ARTICLE, it shall not be necessary to give any notice, other than such notice as may be required in this ARTICLE; provided that the failure to provide any such notice shall not result in a waiver of any such Event of Default or a loss of any such remedy. Such rights and remedies as are given the Issuer hereunder shall also extend to the Trustee and the Purchaser, subject to the provisions of the Security Documents, who shall be entitled to the benefit of all covenants and agreements herein contained.

Section 9.04.         Agreement to Pay Attorneys’ Fees and Expenses. In the event the Borrower should default under any of the provisions of this Financing Agreement and the Issuer, the Trustee or the Purchaser should employ attorneys or incur other expenses for the collection of payments required hereunder or the enforcement of performance or observance of any Borrower’s Obligation or agreement on the part of the Borrower herein contained, the Borrower agrees that it will on demand therefor pay to the Issuer, the Trustee or the Purchaser the reasonable fees and expenses of such attorneys and, such other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses so incurred by the Issuer, the Trustee or the Purchaser.

Section 9.05.         No Additional Waiver Implied by One Waiver. In the event any agreement contained in this Financing Agreement should be breached by either party and thereafter waived by the other party, such waiver shall be limited to the particular breach so waived and shall not be deemed to waive any other breach hereunder.

Section 9.06.         Trustee May File Proof of Claim. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under Section 9.01(8) hereof, the Trustee and the Purchaser shall be entitled and empowered by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise, to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount owing and unpaid pursuant to this Financing Agreement, irrespective of whether the Principal Balance of the Note or any amount hereunder shall then be due and payable as therein or herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise, and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of the Security Documents, and, in case of any judicial proceedings, to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and the Purchaser allowed in such judicial proceedings relative to the Borrower, its creditors, or its property, and to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute the same after the deduction, on a parity, of the charges and expenses of the Trustee and the Purchaser, and any receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization is hereby authorized to make such payments to the Trustee and the Purchaser, and to pay to the Trustee and the Purchaser, any amount due for compensation and expenses, including reasonable counsel fees and expenses incurred by them up to the date of such distribution.

Section 10.03.         Prepayment Price.

(a)         In the case of a partial prepayment pursuant to Section 10.01 hereof, the prepayment price shall equal the principal amount so redeemed plus accrued interest thereon to the date of redemption, without penalty or premium. The principal so redeemed shall be applied so as to reduce the Principal Balance of the Note but there shall be no reduction in the quarterly payments of principal and interest that are due thereon.

(b)         In the case of prepayment of the entire Loan pursuant to Sections 10.01 or 10.02 hereof, the prepayment price shall be a sum sufficient, together with any other funds available for that purpose, to pay, or redeem and pay the Principal Balance of the Bond at the applicable payment price, as to principal and interest to said payment date, without penalty or premium, all as set forth in the Bond, and to pay all Additional Charges accrued and to accrue through final payment of the Bond and all other liabilities of Borrower accrued and to accrue hereunder through final payment of the Bond.

The failure to give notice of a mandatory prepayment required by Section 10.02 hereof shall not relieve Borrower of its obligation to make such a prepayment and the date of closing of such prepayment shall be not less than ten (10) days nor more than thirty (30) days after the event giving rise to such prepayment, as determined by the Borrower or, if the Borrower shall fail or refuse to make such a determination, by the Purchaser.

Section 10.05.         Effect of Events of Default on Optional Prepayment. The option to prepay granted to Borrower in Section 10.01 hereof may be exercised whether or not Borrower is in default hereunder, provided that such default is cured on the date of closing of such prepayment. Further, any and all costs and expenses incurred by the Issuer, the Trustee or the Purchaser relating to or as a result of such default, including attorney fees, shall be reimbursed to the Issuer, the Trustee or the Purchaser by the Borrower on or before the date of closing of such prepayment.

THE MORTGAGOR HEREBY MORTGAGES, CONVEYS, GRANTS, BARGAINS, SELLS, TRANSFERS AND ASSIGNS TO THE MORTGAGEE AND ITS SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS FOREVER, AND GRANTS TO THE MORTGAGEE A CONTINUING SECURITY INTEREST IN AND TO, ALL OF THE COLLATERAL

TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the Collateral unto the Mortgagee and its successors and assigns forever, hereby expressly waiving and releasing any and all right, benefit, privilege, advantage or exemption under and by virtue of any and all statutes and laws of the State or other jurisdiction in which the Collateral is located providing for the exemption of homesteads from sale on execution or otherwise.

ARTICLE I

5.          Maintenance of Collateral. Subject to the provisions and rights set forth in the Financing Agreement, the Mortgagor will: not abandon the Collateral; not do or suffer anything to be done which would depreciate or impair the value of the Collateral or the security of this Mortgage; not remove or demolish any of the Improvements; pay promptly for all labor and materials for all construction, repairs and improvements to or on the Collateral; not make any changes, additions or alterations to the Collateral or the Improvements except as required by any applicable governmental requirement or as otherwise approved in writing by the Mortgagee and Purchaser; maintain, preserve and keep the Goods and the Improvements in good, safe and insurable condition and repair and promptly make any needful and proper repairs, replacements, renewals, additions or substitutions required by wear, damage, obsolescence or destruction; promptly restore and replace any of the Improvements, Goods or Equipment which are destroyed or damaged; not commit, suffer, or permit waste of any part of the Mortgaged Property, except for the anticipated and permitted recovery of Minerals; and maintain all grounds and abutting streets, sidewalks and roads in good and neat order and repair.

To the extent not otherwise addressed herein, the Mortgagor covenants and agrees to timely pay all claim maintenance fees, to timely make all filings and recordings, including affidavits of payment, and to otherwise timely take all other necessary actions and pay such amounts relating to the preservation, maintenance, continuance and validity of Unpatented Mining Claims as may be required by any federal, state or local governmental authority. The Mortgagor shall pay all fees and expenses relating to the Unpatented Mining Claims, including but not limited to annual maintenance fees, on or before July 15 ^th of each year, and provide an “Affidavit of Payment of Maintenance Fees and of Intention to Hold Mining Claims” (with list attached) to Purchaser within five (5) days of payment or by August 1 ^st of each year, whichever shall occur first. In the event that the Purchaser has not received the notice and evidence described in the preceding sentence by August 1, the Purchaser may, on behalf of the Mortgagor, make and pay any claim maintenance fees, in which event the Mortgagor shall promptly reimburse the Purchaser for any such fees, with interest at the rate set forth in the Financing Agreement, in addition to any costs and expenses incurred in making such payments, and all such amounts shall be Liabilities hereunder. Mortgagor further covenants and agrees to pay all required fees due in respect of the State Leases at least forty-five days prior to deadlines for such required payments and provide prompt written notice and evidence of the payment to Purchaser.

7.          Access by Mortgagee and Purchaser. The Mortgagor will at all times: deliver to the Purchaser either all of its executed originals or certified copies of all certificates of location and amendments thereto, leases, agreements creating or evidencing Goods, General Intangibles, Plans, Contracts for Sale, all amendments and supplements thereto, and any other document which is, or which evidences, governs, or creates, Collateral; permit access by the Mortgagee and the Purchaser to its books and records, development and operations progress reports, sales records, offices, insurance policies and other papers for examination and the making of copies and extracts; prepare such schedules, summaries, reports and progress schedules as the Purchaser may request; and permit the Mortgagee and the Purchaser, through their employees, representatives and agents, to enter upon the Lands at any time, subject to appropriate safety training and procedures, for the purpose of investigating and inspecting the condition and operation of the Collateral, and do all other things necessary or proper to enable the Mortgagee and the Purchaser to exercise this right upon reasonable notice at such times as the Mortgagee or the Purchaser may reasonably request. For clarity, if Mortgagee or Purchaser or anyone on the behalf of either visits the site as part of an inspection, audit or otherwise, those representatives will participate in required training and adhere to all site safety and environmental rules and regulations during the course of the visit or work on site.

(a)           Insurance. Mortgagor, at its sole cost and expense, shall insure and keep insured the Collateral against such perils and hazards, and in such amounts and with such limits, as Purchaser may from time to time require, and, in any event, including:

(b)           Policy Requirements. All insurance shall: (i) be carried in companies acceptable to Purchaser; (ii) be in form and content acceptable to Purchaser; (iii) provide thirty (30) days’ advance written notice to Purchaser before any cancellation, adverse material modification or notice of non-renewal; and (iv) to the extent limits are not otherwise specified herein, contain deductibles which are in amounts acceptable to Purchaser.

All physical damage policies and renewals shall contain a standard mortgage clause naming the Mortgagee as beneficiary, which clause shall expressly state that any breach of any condition or warranty by Mortgagor shall not prejudice the rights of Mortgagee under such insurance; and a loss payable clause in favor of the Mortgagee for Goods, General Intangibles, contents, Inventory, Equipment and business interruption. All liability policies and renewals shall name the Mortgagee as an additional insured or loss payee. No additional parties shall appear in the mortgage or loss payable clause without Purchaser’s prior written consent. All deductibles shall be in amounts acceptable to Purchaser. In the event of the foreclosure of this Mortgage or any other transfer of title to the Mortgaged Property in full or partial satisfaction of the Liabilities, all right, title and interest of Mortgagor in and to all insurance policies and renewals thereof then in force shall pass to the purchaser or grantee.

(c)           Delivery of Policies. Any notice pertaining to insurance and required pursuant to this Section 8 shall be given in the manner provided in ARTICLE IV. Section 6 below to the Purchaser. The insurance shall be evidenced by the original policy or a true and certified copy of the original policy, or in the case of liability insurance, by certificates of insurance. Mortgagor shall deliver the originals, certified copies, certificates of coverage or certificates of insurance, along with evidence of payment for the policies and continuing coverage, to Purchaser at least fifteen (15) days before the expiration of existing policies. If Purchaser has not received satisfactory evidence of such renewal or substitute insurance in the time frame herein specified, Purchaser shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase such insurance for Mortgagee’s interest only. Any amounts so disbursed by Purchaser pursuant to this Section shall be a part of the Liabilities and shall bear interest at the interest rate stated in Section 4.03(5) of the Financing Agreement. Nothing contained in this Section shall require Mortgagee or Purchaser to incur any expense or take any action hereunder, and inaction by Mortgagee or Purchaser shall not be considered a waiver of any right accruing to Mortgagee on account of this Section.

(d)           Separate Insurance. Mortgagor shall not carry any separate insurance on the Collateral concurrent in kind or form with any insurance required hereunder or contributing in the event of loss without Purchaser’s prior written consent, and any such policy shall have attached a standard non-contributing mortgagee clause, with loss payable to Mortgagee, and shall otherwise meet all other requirements set forth herein.

(e)           Notice of Casualty. Mortgagor shall give immediate notice of any loss to Mortgagee and Purchaser. In case of loss covered by any of such policies, Mortgagee is authorized to adjust, collect and compromise, with Purchaser’s written approval, all claims thereunder and in such case, Mortgagor covenants to sign upon demand, or Mortgagee may sign or endorse on Mortgagor’s behalf, all necessary proofs of loss, receipts, releases and other papers required by the insurance companies to be signed by Mortgagor. Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints Mortgagee as its attorney-in-fact for the purposes set forth in the preceding sentence. Mortgagee may deduct from such insurance proceeds any expenses incurred by Mortgagee in the collection and settlement thereof, including, but not limited to, attorneys’ and adjusters’ fees and charges.

(f)           Application of Proceeds. If all or any part of the Collateral shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty or shall be damaged or taken through the exercise of the power of eminent domain or other cause described in this Section 8 , Mortgagor shall promptly and with all due diligence restore and repair the Mortgaged Property whether or not the net insurance proceeds, award or other compensation (collectively, the “Proceeds”) are sufficient to pay the cost of such restoration or repair. In the event of a loss, Mortgagor shall obtain a construction monitor satisfactory to the Purchaser to oversee the application of the Proceeds towards such restoration and repair. Mortgagee may require that all plans and specifications for such restoration or repair be submitted to and approved by Purchaser in writing prior to commencement of the work and all such plans and specifications shall be subject to regulatory approvals. Mortgagee and Purchaser agree that ultimate approval rests with applicable regulatory authorities. At Purchaser’s election, to be exercised by written notice by the Mortgagee to the Mortgagor within thirty (30) days following Mortgagee’s unrestricted receipt in cash or the equivalent thereof of the Proceeds, the entire amount of the Proceeds, shall either: (i) be applied to the Liabilities in such order and manner as Purchaser may elect or (ii) be made available to Mortgagor on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 8(f ) to finance the cost of restoration or repair with any excess to be applied to the Liabilities in the inverse order of maturity. If the amount of the Proceeds to be made available to Mortgagor pursuant to this Section 8(f) is less than the cost of the restoration or repair as reasonably estimated by Mortgagee at any time prior to completion thereof, Mortgagor shall cause to be deposited with Mortgagee the amount of such deficiency within thirty (30) days of Mortgagee’s written request therefor (but in no event later than the commencement of the work) and Mortgagor’s deposited funds shall be disbursed prior to the Proceeds. If Mortgagor is required to deposit funds under this Section 8(f) , the deposit of such funds shall be a condition precedent to Mortgagee’s obligation to disburse the Proceeds held by Mortgagee hereunder. The amount of the Proceeds which is to be made available to Mortgagor, together with any deposits made by Mortgagor hereunder, shall be held by Mortgagee to be disbursed from time to time to pay the cost of repair or restoration either, at Purchaser’s option, to Mortgagor or directly to contractors, subcontractors, material suppliers and other persons entitled to payment in accordance with and subject to such conditions to disbursement as Purchaser may impose to assure that the work is fully completed in a good and workmanlike manner and paid for and that no liens or claims arise by reason thereof. Purchaser may require (i) evidence of the estimated cost of completion of such restoration or repair satisfactory to Purchaser, and (ii) such architect’s certificates, waivers of lien, contractors’ sworn statements, title insurance endorsements, plats of survey and other evidence of cost, payment and performance acceptable to Purchaser. If Purchaser requires mechanics’ and materialmen’s lien waivers in advance of making disbursements, such waivers shall be deposited with Purchaser. No payment made prior to final completion of the repair or restoration shall exceed ninety percent (90%) of the value of the work performed from time to time. Without limitation of the foregoing, Mortgagee shall have the right at all times to apply such funds to the cure of any Event of Default or the performance of any obligations of Mortgagor under the Loan Documents.

9.          Eminent Domain. In case the Collateral, or any part or interest in any thereof, is taken by condemnation, the Mortgagee is hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered to collect and receive all compensation and awards of any kind whatsoever (referred to collectively herein as “Condemnation Awards”) which may be paid for any property taken or for damages to any property not taken (all of which the Mortgagor hereby assigns to the Mortgagee), and all Condemnation Awards so received shall be forthwith applied by the Mortgagee, as provided in Section 8(f) .

10.         Governmental Requirements. The Mortgagor will at all times cause the Collateral and the use and condition thereof to comply with all federal, state, county, municipal, local and other governmental statutes, ordinances, requirements, regulations, rules, orders and decrees of any kind whatsoever that apply or relate to the Collateral or the use thereof, and will observe and comply with all conditions and requirements necessary to preserve and extend any and all rights, licenses, permits, privileges, franchises and concessions (including, without limitation, those relating to land use and development, landmark preservation, construction, access, water rights and use, noise and pollution) which are applicable to or have been granted for the Collateral or the use thereof.

11.         No Mechanics’ Liens. The Mortgagor will not do or permit to be done any act or thing, and no person shall have any right or power to do any act or thing, whereby any mechanics’ lien under the laws of the State of Wyoming can arise against or attach to the Collateral or any part thereof unless such lien shall first be wholly waived as against this Mortgage. In addition, it is further expressly made a covenant and condition hereof that the lien of this Mortgage shall extend to any and all Improvements and Fixtures now or hereafter on the Mortgaged Property, prior to any other lien thereon that may be claimed by any person, so that subsequently accruing claims to a lien on the Mortgaged Property shall be junior and subordinate to this Mortgage. All contractors, subcontractors, and other parties dealing with the Mortgaged Property, or with any parties interested therein, are hereby required to take notice of the above provisions.

12.         Continuing Priority. Subject to the provisions and rights set forth in the Financing Agreement, the Mortgagor will: pay such fees, taxes and charges, execute and file (at the Mortgagor’s expense) such financing statements, obtain such acknowledgments or consents, notify such obligors or providers of services and materials and do all such other acts and things as the Mortgagee or the Purchaser may from time to time request to establish and maintain a valid and perfected first and prior lien on and security interest in the Collateral and, effective after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Mortgagor shall provide for payment to the Mortgagee directly of all cash proceeds thereof, with the Mortgagee in possession of the Collateral to the extent it requests; maintain its executive office at all times at the address shown herein or provide thirty days written notice prior to moving; keep all of its books and records relating to the Collateral on the Mortgaged Property or at such address; keep all tangible Collateral on the premises and the Lands except as the Mortgagee may otherwise consent in writing; make notations on its books and records sufficient to enable the Mortgagee, as well as third parties, to determine the interest of the Mortgagee hereunder; and not collect any rents or the proceeds of any of the Leases, or General Intangibles more than thirty (30) days before the same shall be due and payable except as the Mortgagee may otherwise consent in writing.

13.         Utilities. The Mortgagor will pay all utility charges incurred in connection with the Collateral and maintain all utility services available for use at the Mortgaged Property.

14.         Contract Maintenance: Other Agreements. The Mortgagor will, for the benefit of the Mortgagee and the Purchaser, fully and promptly perform each obligation and satisfy each condition imposed on it under any Contract for Sale, Lease, General Intangible, exploration contract or other agreement so that there will be no default thereunder and so that the Persons (other than the Mortgagor) obligated thereon shall be and remain at all times obligated to perform for the benefit of the Mortgagee; and the Mortgagor will not permit to exist any condition, event or fact which could allow or serve as a basis or justification for any such Person to avoid such performance.

15.         Agreements Affecting the Collateral. The Mortgagor shall keep, observe, perform and comply with all covenants, conditions and restrictions affecting the Collateral, any operating agreements or other writings relating to the Collateral, and all leases, instruments and documents relating thereto or evidencing or securing any indebtedness secured thereby.

16.         No Assignments; Future Leases. Subject to the provisions of the Financing Agreement, the Mortgagor will not cause or permit any Revenues, issues, profits, Leases, Contracts for Sale, Product Sales Contracts or other contracts relating to the Collateral, or any interest in any thereof, to be assigned, transferred, conveyed, pledged or disposed of, to any party other than the Mortgagee or the Purchaser without first obtaining the express written consent of the Purchaser thereto. In addition, the Mortgagor shall not cause or permit all or any portion of or interest in the Collateral to be leased directly or indirectly to any Person, except pursuant to written leases approved by the Purchaser. Each such lease shall contain, at the Purchaser’s election, either (i) a provision to the effect that the tenant shall, at the request of the Purchaser, deliver to the Mortgagee an instrument, in form and substance satisfactory to the Purchaser, in which the tenant agrees that no action taken by the Mortgagee to enforce this Mortgage by foreclosure, or by accepting a deed in lieu of foreclosure, or by resorting to any other remedies available to the Mortgagee, shall terminate the lease or invalidate any of the terms thereof and that tenant will attorn to the Mortgagee, to the purchaser at a foreclosure sale, or to a grantee in a voluntary conveyance, and will recognize such entity as landlord for the balance of the term of the lease, providing that the Mortgagee will agree with the tenant that, as long as the tenant is not in default under any of the terms of its lease, the tenant’s possession will not be disturbed by the Mortgagee, or (ii) a subordination clause providing that the lease and the interest of the lessee in the demised real estate are in all respects subject and subordinate to this Mortgage; provided, however, that in the event any such lease fails for any reason to contain either of such provisions, no proceeding by the Mortgagee to foreclose this Mortgage, or action by way of its entry into possession after any Event of Default hereunder, shall in or of itself operate to terminate such lease unless the Mortgagee or the Purchaser expressly requests such relief in writing, but the preceding provisions of this Section 16 shall never be construed as subordinating this Mortgage to any such lease or any other lease.

17.         Financial Reporting. The Mortgagor will at all times comply (or cause to be complied with) the financial reporting requirements of the Indenture and the Financing Agreement and will comply with all covenants contained therein.

18.         Collections. Until such time as the Mortgagee shall notify the Mortgagor of the revocation of such power and authority, the Mortgagor will, at its own expense, endeavor to collect, as and when due, all amounts due with respect to any of the Revenues, Leases, Contracts for Sale, Product Sales Contracts, Post Production Contracts, Goods, General Intangibles and other Collateral, including the taking of such action with respect to such collection as the Mortgagee may reasonably request, or, in the absence of such request, as the Mortgagor may deem advisable. (While reserving the right to revoke such power and authority at any time, it is the Mortgagee’s present intention not to revoke such authority unless an Event of Default should occur or the Mortgagee is made to feel insecure concerning any of the Liabilities or performance under any of the Loan Documents.) The Mortgagee, however, may, at any time, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, whether before or after any revocation of such power and authority or the maturity of any of the Liabilities, notify any parties obligated on any of the Revenues, Leases, Contracts for Sale, Product Sales Contracts, Goods, General Intangibles and other Collateral to make payment to the Mortgagee of any amounts due or to become due thereunder and enforce collection of any of the Revenues, Leases, Contracts for Sale, Product Sales Contracts, Goods, General Intangibles or other Collateral by suit or otherwise and surrender, release or exchange all or any part thereof, or compromise or extend or renew for any period (whether or not longer than the original period) any indebtedness thereunder or evidenced thereby. Upon request of the Mortgagee or the Purchaser, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Mortgagor will, at its own expense, notify any parties obligated on any of the Revenues, Leases, Contracts for Sale, Product Sales Contracts, Goods, General Intangibles or other Collateral to make payment to the Mortgagee of the amounts due or to become due thereunder.

19.         Mortgagee’s Performance. If the Mortgagor fails to pay or perform any of its obligations herein contained (including payment of expenses of foreclosure and court costs), the Mortgagee may (but need not), as agent or attorney-in-fact of the Mortgagor, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, after giving the Mortgagor notice of its intention to do so (no such notice need be given after the occurrence of an Event of Default), make any payment or perform (or cause to be performed) any obligation of the Mortgagor hereunder, in any form and manner deemed expedient by the Mortgagee, and any amount so paid or expended (plus reasonable compensation to the Mortgagee for its out-of-pocket and other expenses for each matter for which it acts under this Mortgage), with interest thereon at the rate provided in Section 4.03(5) of the Financing Agreement, shall be added to the principal debt hereby secured and shall be repaid to the Mortgagee upon demand. By way of illustration and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Mortgagee may (but need not) do all or any of the following: make payments of principal or interest or other amounts on any lien, encumbrance or charge on any of the Collateral; complete construction; make repairs; collect rents, prosecute collection of the Collateral or proceeds thereof; purchase, discharge, compromise or settle any tax lien or any other lien, encumbrance, suit, proceeding, title or claim thereof, contest any tax or assessment; and redeem from any tax sale or forfeiture affecting the Mortgaged Property. In making any payment or securing any performance relating to any obligation of the Mortgagor hereunder, the Mortgagee shall (as long as it acts in good faith) be the judge of the legality, validity and amount of any lien or encumbrance and of all other matters necessary to be determined in satisfaction thereof. No such action of the Mortgagee shall ever be considered as a waiver of any right accruing to it on account of the occurrence of any matter which constitutes an Event of Default.

20.         Subrogation. To the extent that the Mortgagee, on or after the date hereof pays any sum due under any provision of law or any instrument or document creating any lien prior or superior to the lien of this Mortgage, or the Mortgagor or any other Person pays any such sum with the proceeds of the Loan to the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee shall have and be entitled to a lien on the Collateral equal in priority to the lien discharged, and the Mortgagee shall be subrogated to, and receive and enjoy all rights and liens possessed, held or enjoyed by, the holder of such lien, which shall remain in existence and benefit the Mortgagee in securing the Liabilities.

21.         Mortgagor’s Right to Contest. Mortgagor may contest or object to the legal validity or amount of any mechanics or materialmen’s lien on the Collateral provided that: (a) Mortgagor contests such unpaid item by appropriate proceedings diligently and in good faith, and (b) Mortgagor procures and maintains a stay of any proceedings to enforce any judgment for collection of the mechanic’s or materialmen’s lien.

Mortgagor’s tax or assessment liabilities may be deemed delinquent, and a tax lien or assessment lien may be imposed, but only if Mortgagor has contested, or is actively contesting, tax liabilities, tax liens or assessments in good faith before Wyoming administrative agencies and/or courts as expressly permitted in Title 39 of the Wyoming Statutes.

Any contest by Mortgagor shall be at its own expense, in good faith, but only with the written consent of the Purchaser, which consent will not be unreasonably denied or delayed (except with respect to State taxes where Mortgagor will need to obtain the written consent of the Mortgagee, which consent will not be unreasonably denied or delayed). During the course of such contest, however, Mortgagor will continue to make or cause to be made any required yearly maintenance or rental fees applicable to its Unpatented Mining Claims or perform any required assessment work or improvements annually on each claim and to pay required rental and other fees on its State Leases. Mortgagor may also be required to furnish Mortgagee with any such other security or assurances as may be requested by the Purchaser.

Within ten (10) Business Days of final administrative or judicial resolution of any dispute, Mortgagor shall pay liens, taxes or assessments adjudicated as due and owing.

22.         Change in General Mining Law. In the event of the repeal or modification of the current General Mining Law of 1872 during the term of this Mortgage, such that the interest of the Mortgagor in those lands which are material to the exploration, development or operation of the Lands is adversely affected, modified or transformed, the Mortgagor will use its best efforts to retain its interest in those Lands and will consult with the Mortgagee and the Purchaser to determine how best to preserve the interest of the Mortgagor and the interest of the Mortgagee and the Purchaser in the affected Collateral, and the Mortgagor shall take no action in relation thereto, which in the reasonable opinion of the Mortgagee or the Purchaser or their counsel, could adversely affect or impair their interest in the Collateral or under this Mortgage. An increase in the annual claim maintenance fee applicable to the Unpatented Mining Claims from time to time in accordance with the General Mining Law of 1872 and applicable regulations shall not constitute a modification of the General Mining Law of 1872 for the purposes of the application of this Section 22.

23.         Recording and Filing. The Purchaser, at the expense of the Mortgagor, shall be responsible for the original filing of all (i) Security Documents and related filing statements, and (ii) mortgage releases and termination statements, and any other documents required to effect the issuance of the Bond and the Loan. Thereafter the Mortgagee, at the Mortgagor’s expense, shall pay all fees, taxes and charges and file continuations thereof, in such offices and places and at such times and as often as may be reasonably necessary to preserve, protect and renew the lien as a valid, first lien on and prior perfected security interest in real property, Goods or General Intangibles (except as otherwise permitted pursuant to this Mortgage), as the case may be, and the rights and remedies of the Mortgagee, obtain such acknowledgments or consents, notify all obligors or providers of services and materials and otherwise do and observe all things or matters necessary or expedient to be done or observed by reason of any applicable Law, or as the Purchaser reasonably may request from time to time, for the purpose of effectively, maintaining and preserving the lien hereof on and in the Mortgaged Property.

24.         Sale or Mortgage of the Mortgaged Property. Except in the ordinary course of business and subject to Section 3.01(d) of the Financing Agreement, the Mortgagor will not, without the prior consent of the Purchaser, sell, assign, transfer, convey, lease or otherwise dispose of or encumber the Mortgaged Property nor any portion thereof, nor any of the Mortgagor’s right, title or interest therein, nor contract to do nor permit to occur any of the foregoing, without first securing the written consent of the Purchaser. Upon the disposition of any Mortgaged Property permitted pursuant to this Mortgage or the Loan Documents, the Mortgagee shall, at the Mortgagor’s expense, execute and deliver to the Mortgagor all instruments and other documents as may be necessary or proper to release the lien on and security interest in such Mortgaged Property which has been granted hereunder.

25.         Records, Statements and Reports. The Mortgagor will keep financial records and statements reflecting all of its business affairs and transactions in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Mortgagee and the Purchaser such information concerning the business, affairs and financial condition of the Mortgagor as the Mortgagee or the Purchaser may from time to time reasonably request.

26.         After-Acquired Properties. Without prejudice to its obligations contained in the Loan Documents, the Mortgagor shall advise the Mortgagee and Purchaser, within forty-five (45) days after June 30 and December 31 of each calendar year after the date of this Mortgage, as to any additional interests in the Mortgaged Property it has acquired and any other material assets acquired by the Mortgagor during such preceding six-month period and, at the request of the Purchaser shall execute, acknowledge and deliver such other and further instruments and agreements necessary or desirable to include such interests and assets as a part of the Mortgaged Property hereunder.

27.         Performance of Post-Production Contracts; Notices. The Mortgagor shall:

28.         Actions Under Post-Production Contracts. Without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, which consent will not be unreasonably denied or delayed, the Mortgagor shall not:

which would, in each case, impair the value of the interest or rights of the Mortgagor thereunder or which would impair the interest or rights of the Mortgagee. Mortgager shall give Purchaser advance notice of any actions to be taken under (a), (b), (c) or (d) and provide any information requested by Purchaser.

29.         Mortgagor Remains Liable. Anything herein to the contrary with respect to the Post-Production Contracts notwithstanding:

ARTICLE II

ASSIGNMENT OF POST PRODUCTION CONTRACTS

1.          Assignment. As additional Collateral security, the Mortgagor hereby absolutely and irrevocably (a) transfers, assigns, warrants and conveys to the Mortgagee, effective as of the date hereof, at 12:01 A.M., local time, the Post-Production Contracts, and (b) gives to and confers upon the Mortgagee, at such time as there is an Event of Default under the Financing Agreement or this Mortgage, the right, power and authority to collect all payments, monies, Ore, or other in-kind transfers accruing to Mortgagor under the Post-Production Contracts (the “Post-Production Contract Payments”). The Mortgagor irrevocably appoints the Mortgagee its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of the Mortgagor and in the name of the Mortgagor or otherwise, from time to time in the Mortgagee’s discretion, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to demand, receive and enforce payment, to give receipts, releases and satisfactions, and to sue, in the name of the Mortgagor or the Mortgagee, for the Post-Production Contracts and apply the Post-Production Contract Payments to the payment of the Borrower’s Obligations under the Loan Documents. Subject to the foregoing, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all parties responsible for the payment of the Post-Production Contract Payments to the Mortgagor are authorized and directed to treat and regard the Mortgagee as the assignee and transferee of the Mortgagor and entitled in the Mortgagor’s place and stead to receive such Post-Production Contract Payments; and said parties and each of them shall be fully protected in so treating and regarding the Mortgagee and shall be under no obligation to see to the application by the Mortgagee of any such proceeds or payments received by it. Such Post-Production Contracts and Post-Production Contract Payments are hereby assigned absolutely by the Mortgagor to the Mortgagee as additional Collateral security contingent with respect to collection only upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder.

2.          Collection Upon Event of Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Mortgagee may, at any time without notice, either in person, or by a receiver appointed by a court, and without regard to the adequacy of any security for the Borrower’s Obligations, in its own name as Trustee or attorney in fact for the Mortgagor, enter upon and take possession of the Mortgaged Property, or any part thereof, and sue for or otherwise collect the Post-Production Contract Payments, including those past due and unpaid and apply the same, less costs and expenses of operation and collection, including attorneys’ fees, upon any of the Borrower’s Obligations in such order as the Mortgagee shall determine. The collection of the Post-Production Contract Payments, or the entering upon and taking possession of the Mortgaged Property, or the application thereof as aforesaid, shall not cure or waive any default or notice of default hereunder or invalidate any act done in response to such default or pursuant to notice of default

3.          No Liability of the Mortgagee in Collecting. The Mortgagee is hereby absolved from all liability for failure to enforce collection of any proceeds so assigned (and no such failure shall be deemed to be a waiver of any right of the Mortgagee under this ARTICLE) and from all other responsibility in connection therewith, except the responsibility to account to the Mortgagor for funds actually received.

4.          Assignment Not a Restriction on the Mortgagee’s Rights. Nothing herein contained shall detract from or limit the absolute obligation of the Mortgagor to make payment of the Borrower’s Obligations regardless of whether the proceeds assigned by this ARTICLE are sufficient to pay the same, and the rights under this ARTICLE shall be in addition to all other security now or hereafter existing to secure the payment and performance of Borrower’s Obligations.

5.          Status of Assignment. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this ARTICLE, and in addition to the other rights hereunder, the Mortgagee or any receiver appointed in judicial proceedings for the enforcement of this Mortgage shall have the right to receive the Post-Production Contract Payments herein assigned and the proceeds therefrom after Borrower’s Obligations have been declared due and payable in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents and to apply all of said proceeds as provided in Section 2 of this ARTICLE II. Upon any sale of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof pursuant to ARTICLE IV, the Post-Production Contract Payments thereafter attributable to the property so sold, and the proceeds therefrom, shall be included in such sale and shall pass to the purchaser free and clear of the assignment contained in this ARTICLE.

6.          Indemnity. In addition to any similar obligations set forth in the Loan Documents to which it is a party, the Mortgagor shall indemnify the Mortgagee against all claims, actions, liabilities, judgments, costs, losses, damages, attorneys’ fees or other charges or expenses of whatsoever kind or nature (collectively, “claims”) made against or incurred by it as a consequence of the assertion, either before or after the payment in full of Borrower’s Obligations, that it received the Post-Production Contracts herein assigned or the Post-Production Contract Payments claimed by third persons. The Mortgagor and the Mortgagee shall each, on its own behalf, have the right to defend against any such claims, employing attorneys therefor, and unless furnished with reasonable indemnity, they or either of them shall have the right to pay or compromise and adjust all such claims. The Mortgagor will indemnify and pay to the Mortgagee any and all such amounts as may be paid in respect thereof or as may be successfully adjudged against the Mortgagee, except to the extent such amounts arise for the account of the Mortgagee by reason of its own fraud, intentional misrepresentation, gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction). If and to the extent that the foregoing undertaking may be unenforceable for any reason, the Mortgagor hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of the claims which is permissible under Applicable Law. The obligations of the Mortgagor as hereinabove set forth in this Section shall survive the release, termination, foreclosure or assignment of this Mortgage or any sale hereunder.

(a)           Compliance . To Mortgagor’s knowledge, the Mortgaged Property is not listed on any local, state and/or federal lists of potentially contaminated sites, including, but not limited to, the National Priorities List, CERCLIS or any state or federal hazardous waste site or leaking underground storage tank lists, and the Mortgaged Property and Mortgagor have been and are currently in compliance with all Environmental Laws. Other than as disclosed to Mortgagee in writing, a copy of which is attached hereto as EXHIBIT E, there are, to Mortgagor’s knowledge, no pending or threatened, Environmental Actions to which Mortgagor is a party or which relate to the Mortgaged Property. All required governmental permits and licenses for current operations are in effect, and Mortgagor is in compliance therewith. Mortgagor has not received any notice of any Environmental Action respecting Mortgagor, the Mortgaged Property or any off-site facility to which has been sent any Hazardous Material for off-site treatment, recycling, reclamation, reuse, handling, storage, sale or disposal.

(b)           Absence of Hazardous Material . No use, exposure, release, emission, discharge, generation, manufacture, sale, handling, reuse, presence, storage, treatment, transport, recycling or disposal of Hazardous Material has, to Mortgagor’s knowledge, occurred or is occurring on or from the Mortgaged Property except in compliance with Environmental Laws or as described in EXHIBIT E hereto (“Disclosed Materials”). The term “release” shall include but not be limited to any spilling, leaking, pumping, pouring, emitting, emptying, discharging, injecting, escaping, leaching, dumping, or disposing into the environment (including the abandonment or discarding of barrels, containers and other receptacles containing any Hazardous Material). To Mortgagor’s knowledge, all Hazardous Material used, treated, stored, transported to or from, generated or handled on the Mortgaged Property has been disposed of on or off the Mortgaged Property in a lawful manner. To Mortgagor’s knowledge, no environmental, public health or safety hazards currently exist with respect to the Mortgaged Property. To Mortgagor’s knowledge, no underground storage tanks (including but not limited to petroleum or heating oil storage tanks) are present on or under the Mortgaged Property, or have been on or under the Mortgaged Property except as has been disclosed in writing to Mortgagee, a copy of which is attached hereto as EXHIBIT E (“Disclosed Tanks”).

3.           Mortgagor’s Covenants. Mortgagor hereby covenants and agrees with Mortgagee as follows:

(a)           Compliance . The Mortgaged Property shall be in compliance with all Environmental Laws. All required governmental permits and licenses for the Mortgaged Property shall be obtained and maintained, and Mortgagor shall comply therewith. All Hazardous Material on the Mortgaged Property will be disposed of in a lawful manner without giving rise to liability under any Environmental Laws. Mortgagor will satisfy all material requirements of applicable Environmental Laws for the registration, operation, maintenance and closure of the operations of the Mortgaged Property, including removal of all underground storage tanks, if any. Without limiting the foregoing, all Hazardous Material on or from the Mortgaged Property shall be handled by the Mortgagor in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws.

(b)           Absence of Hazardous Material . Other than that permitted by the licenses and permits applicable to the Project or Disclosed Materials, no Hazardous Material shall be introduced to or used, exposed, released, emitted, discharged, generated, manufactured, sold, transported, handled, stored, treated, reused, presented, disposed of or recycled on the Mortgaged Property without thirty (30) days prior written notice to Mortgagee.

(c)           Environmental Actions and Right to Consent . Mortgagor shall immediately notify Mortgagee of all Environmental Actions against or with respect to the Mortgaged Property of which Mortgagor has knowledge or receipt of notice and provide copies of all written notices, complaints, correspondence and other documents relating thereto within five (5) Business Days of receipt, and Mortgagor shall keep Mortgagee informed of all responses thereto. Mortgagor shall promptly commence efforts to cure and have dismissed with prejudice all Environmental Actions against the Mortgagor or the Mortgaged Property in a manner satisfactory to Mortgagee and Mortgagor shall keep the Mortgaged Property free of any encumbrance arising from any judgment, liability or lien imposed pursuant to any Environmental Actions. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, Mortgagor may, diligently, in good faith and by appropriate legal proceedings, contest such proceedings provided: (i) Mortgagor first furnishes to Mortgagee such deposits or other collateral as Mortgagee reasonably deems sufficient to fully protect Mortgagee’s interests; (ii) such contest shall have the effect of preventing any threatened or pending sale or forfeiture of all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property or the loss or impairment of Mortgagee’s lien and security interests in and to the Mortgaged Property; and (iii) such contest will not cause Mortgagee to incur any liability, in Mortgagee’s reasonable judgment. Mortgagor shall permit Mortgagee, at Mortgagee’s option, to appear in and to be represented in any such contest and shall pay upon demand all expenses incurred by Mortgagee in so doing, including attorneys’ fees.

(d)           Future Environmental Audits . Mortgagor shall provide such information and certifications which Mortgagee may reasonably request from time to time to monitor Mortgagor’s compliance with this ARTICLE III for the sole purpose of protecting Mortgagee’s security interest. To protect its security interest, Mortgagee shall have the right, but not the obligation, at any time to enter upon the Mortgaged Property, take samples, review Mortgagor’s books and records, interview Mortgagor’s employees and officers, and conduct such other activities as Mortgagee, at its reasonable discretion, deems appropriate and is permitted by applicable Environmental Laws and the permits and licenses applicable to the Project. If Mortgagee visits the site as part of an audit or to sample, the Mortgagee will participate in required training and adhere to all site safety and environmental rules and regulations during the course of the visit or work on site. Samples which may contain source or byproduct material must be sent to a commercial lab with a U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission license. Mortgagor shall cooperate fully in the conduct of such an audit. If Mortgagee decides to conduct such an audit because of (i) an Environmental Action; (ii) Mortgagee’s considering taking possession of or title to the Mortgaged Property after default by Mortgagor; (iii) a material change in the use of the Mortgaged Property, which in Mortgagee’s opinion, increases the risk to its security interest; or (iv) the introduction of Hazardous Material other than those permitted by permits and licenses applicable to the Project and Disclosed Materials to the Mortgaged Property; then Mortgagor shall pay upon demand all costs and expenses connected with such audit, which, until paid, shall become additional indebtedness secured by the Loan Documents and shall bear interest at the rate of interest set forth in the Bond. Nothing in this ARTICLE III shall give or be construed as giving Mortgagee the right to direct or control Mortgagor’s actions in complying with Environmental Laws.

(e)          Event of Default and Opportunity to Cure . If Mortgagor fails to comply with any of its covenants contained in this Section 3 within thirty (30) days after notice by Mortgagee to Mortgagor, Mortgagee may, at its option, declare an Event of Default. If, however, the noncompliance cannot, in Mortgagee’s reasonable determination, be corrected within such thirty (30) day period, and if Mortgagor has promptly commenced and diligently pursues action to cure such noncompliance to Mortgagee’s satisfaction, then Mortgagor shall have such additional time as is reasonably necessary to correct such noncompliance, provided Mortgagor continues to diligently pursue corrective action and to provide periodic reports to Mortgagee.

4.          Mortgagee’s Right to Rely. Mortgagee is entitled to rely upon Mortgagor’s representations, warranties and covenants contained in this ARTICLE despite any independent investigations by Mortgagee or its consultants. Mortgagor shall take all necessary actions to determine, and to remain aware of, the environmental condition of the Mortgaged Property. Mortgagor shall have the right to rely upon any independent environmental investigations or findings made by Mortgagee or its consultants.

5.          Indemnification. The term “Mortgagee’s Environmental Liability” shall mean any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, penalties, claims, fines, lost profits, demands, litigation, defenses, costs, judgments, suits, proceedings, damages (including consequential, punitive and exemplary damages), disbursements or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (including attorneys’ fees at trial and appellate levels and experts’ fees and disbursements and expenses incurred in investigating, defending against, settling or prosecuting any suit, litigation, claim or proceeding) which may at any time be either directly or indirectly imposed upon, incurred by or asserted or awarded against Mortgagee or any of Mortgagee’s parent and subsidiary corporations and their affiliates, shareholders, directors, officers, employees, and agents (collectively, Mortgagee’s “Affiliates”) in connection with or arising from:

(a)          any Hazardous Material used, exposed, emitted, released, discharged, generated, manufactured, sold, transported, handled, stored, treated, reused, presented, disposed of or recycled on, in or under all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property, or any surrounding areas, excepting therefrom any such actions caused by, or during any period in which the Mortgaged Property were owned by or under the control of, Mortgagee (collectively, such actions are referred to as the “Mortgagee’s Actions”);

(b)          any misrepresentation, inaccuracy or breach of any warranty, covenant or agreement contained or referred to in this ARTICLE;

(c)          any violation, liability or claim of violation or liability, under any Environmental Laws, excepting therefrom those created by Mortgagee’s Actions;

(d)          the imposition of any lien for damages caused by, or the recovery of any costs incurred for the cleanup of, any release or threatened release of Hazardous Material, excepting therefrom those created by Mortgagee’s Actions; or

(e)          any Environmental Actions.

Mortgagor shall indemnify, defend (at trial and appellate levels and with counsel, experts and consultants acceptable to Mortgagee and at Mortgagor’s sole cost) and hold Mortgagee and its Affiliates free and harmless from and against Mortgagee’s Environmental Liability (collectively, “Mortgagor’s Indemnification Obligations”). Mortgagor’s Indemnification Obligations shall survive in perpetuity with respect to any Mortgagee’s Environmental Liability.

Mortgagor and its successors and assigns hereby waive, release and agree not to make any claim or bring any cost recovery action against Mortgagee under or with respect to any Environmental Laws. Mortgagor’s obligation to Mortgagee under this indemnity shall, except as set forth herein, be without regard to fault on the part of Mortgagor or Mortgagee with respect to the violation or condition that results in liability to Mortgagee.

ARTICLE IV

DEFAULT; REMEDIES

The Mortgagor and the Mortgagee hereby agree further as follows:

1.          Event of Default; Acceleration. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an “Event of Default” hereunder: (a) any failure of the Mortgagor timely to make any payment of any principal or interest on the Note, or any other amount under the Loan Documents; (b) any other default, or failure of the Mortgagor timely and properly to perform any of its other obligations hereunder or under the Loan Documents; or, (c) the occurrence of any Event of Default under the Loan Documents. With respect to any occurrence that constitutes an Event of Default under clauses (a), (b) or (c) of the preceding sentence solely because it constitutes a default under another document, any grace or cure period applicable thereto under such other document (and only such grace or cure period, if any) shall also be applicable thereto and hereunder. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the entire indebtedness evidenced by the Loan Documents and all other Liabilities, together with interest thereon at the rate provided in Section 4.03 of the Financing Agreement shall, at the option of the Mortgagee, become and be immediately due and payable.

2.          Remedies Cumulative. No remedy or right of the Mortgagee hereunder or under the Loan Documents or otherwise, or available under applicable law, shall be exclusive of any other right or remedy, but each such remedy or right shall be in addition to every other remedy or right now or hereafter existing under any such document or under applicable law. No delay in the exercise of, or omission to exercise, any remedy or right accruing on any Event of Default shall impair any such remedy or right or be construed to be a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein, nor shall it affect any subsequent Event of Default of the same or a different nature. Every such remedy or right may be exercised concurrently or independently, and when and as often as may be deemed expedient by the Mortgagee. All obligations of the Mortgagor, and all rights, powers and remedies of the Mortgagee, expressed herein shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, those provided by law or in the Loan Documents or any other written agreement or instrument relating to any of the Liabilities or any security therefor.

3.          Possession of Mortgaged Property; Remedies under Financing Agreement. The Mortgagor hereby waives all right to the possession, income, and rents of the Mortgaged Property from and after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, and the Mortgagee is hereby expressly authorized and empowered, at and following any such occurrence, to enter into and upon and take possession of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, to complete any construction in progress thereon at the expense of the Mortgagor, to lease the same, to collect and receive all Revenues and to apply the same, less the necessary or appropriate expenses of collection thereof, either for the care, operation and preservation of the Mortgaged Property or, at the election of the Mortgagee, to a reduction of such of the Liabilities in such order as the Mortgagee may elect, all as subject to applicable law. The Mortgagee, in addition to the rights provided under the Financing Agreement, is also hereby granted, effective after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the full and complete authority to enter upon the Mortgaged Property, employ watchmen to protect the Goods, Improvements and Equipment from depredation or injury and to preserve and protect the Collateral, and to continue any and all outstanding contracts for the erection and completion of Improvements to the Mortgaged Property, to make and enter into any contracts and obligations wherever necessary in its own name, and to pay and discharge all debts, obligations and liabilities incurred thereby, all at the expense of the Mortgagor. All such expenditures by the Mortgagee shall be Liabilities under this Mortgage for all purposes. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Mortgagee may also exercise any or all rights or remedies under the Financing Agreement, including, without limitation, to perform obligations of the Mortgagor under any Contract for Sale, Product Sale Contract or Post-Production Contract.

4.          Foreclosure; Receiver. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Mortgagee shall also have the right, immediately or at any time thereafter, to foreclose this Mortgage by publication and sale as provided by Wyoming statute and/or by judicial proceeding. The Mortgagor authorizes and empowers the Mortgagee to effect the foreclosure against the Collateral in lots or parcels or in its entirety as the Mortgagee shall deem expedient; and to execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered to the purchaser or purchasers thereof good and sufficient deeds of conveyance, certificates of purchase and/or sheriff’s deeds thereto, with evidence of general warranty by the Mortgagee, and the title of such purchaser or purchasers when so made by the Mortgagee or on Mortgagee’s behalf, the Mortgagor binds itself to warrant and forever defend, subject to Permitted Encumbrances and the paramount ownership of the United States as to any Unpatented Mining Claims or ownership by the State of Wyoming as to the State Leases. Upon the filing of any complaint for that purpose or commencement of foreclosure by publication and sale, any court of competent jurisdiction may upon application of the Mortgagee or at any time thereafter, either before or after foreclosure sale, appoint a receiver for the benefit of the Mortgagee, with power to take possession, charge, and control of the Mortgaged Property, to lease the same, to keep the buildings thereon insured and in good repair, and to collect all Revenues during the pendency of such foreclosure suit and during any period of redemption. The court may, from time to time, authorize said receiver to apply the net amounts remaining in his hands, after deducting reasonable compensation for the receiver and his counsel as allowed by the court, in payment (in whole or in part) of any or all of the Liabilities, including without limitation the following, in such order of application as the Mortgagee may elect: (i) amounts due to repay the Bond, in accordance with the Indenture and the Financing Agreement, (ii) amounts due upon any decree entered in any suit foreclosing this Mortgage, (iii) costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses) of foreclosure and litigation upon the Mortgaged Property, (iv) insurance premiums, repairs, taxes, special assessments, water charges and interest, penalties and costs, in connection with the Mortgaged Property, (v) any other lien or charge upon the Mortgaged Property that may be or become superior to the lien of this Mortgage, or of any decree foreclosing the same, and (vi) all moneys advanced by the Mortgagee to cure or attempt to cure any default by the Mortgagor in the performance of any obligation or condition contained in the Loan Documents or this Mortgage or otherwise, to protect the security hereof provided herein in any of the Loan Documents, with interest on such advances at the interest rate applicable under Section 4.03 of the Financing Agreement. The overplus of the proceeds of sale, if any, shall then (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) be paid to the Mortgagor upon its written request (and, if not permitted by law to be paid to the Mortgagor, such overplus shall be paid and applied as required by applicable law). This Mortgage may be foreclosed once against all, or successively against any portion or portions, of the Mortgaged Property, as the Mortgagee may elect, until all of the Mortgaged Property has been foreclosed against and sold. In case of any foreclosure of this Mortgage (or the commencement of or preparation therefor) in any court, all expenses of every kind paid or incurred by the Mortgagee for the enforcement, protection or collection of this security, including court costs, attorneys’ fees, stenographers’ fees, costs of advertising, and costs of title insurance and any other documentary evidence of title, shall be paid by the Mortgagor. Mortgagee, to the extent allowed by law, may foreclose this Mortgage by notice and publication, and compliance with such other requirements as may be applicable.

5.          Remedies for Leases and Revenues; Assignment. If any Event of Default occurs and while it continues, then, whether before or after institution of legal proceedings to foreclose the lien of this Mortgage or before or after the sale thereunder, the Mortgagee shall be entitled, in its discretion, to do all or any of the following: (i) enter and take actual possession of the Mortgaged Property, the Revenues, the Leases and other Collateral relating thereto or any part thereof personally, or by its agents or attorneys, and exclude the Mortgagor therefrom; (ii) with or without process of law, enter upon and take and maintain possession of all of the documents, books, records, papers and accounts of the Mortgagor relating thereto; (iii) as attorney-in-fact or agent of the Mortgagor, or in its own name as Mortgagee and under the powers herein granted, hold, operate, manage and control the Mortgaged Property, the Revenues, the Leases and other Collateral relating thereto and conduct the business, if any, thereof either personally or by its agents, contractors or nominees, with full power to use such measures, legal or equitable, as in its discretion or in the discretion of its successors or assigns may be deemed proper or necessary to enforce the payment of the Revenues, the Leases and other Collateral relating thereto (including actions for the recovery of revenues, rents, actions in forcible detainer and actions in distress of rent); (iv) cancel or terminate any Lease or sublease for any cause or on any ground which would entitle the Mortgagor to cancel the same; (v) elect to disaffirm any Lease or sublease made subsequent hereto or subordinated to the lien hereof, (vi) make all necessary or proper repairs, decoration, renewals, replacements, alterations, additions, betterments and improvements to the Mortgaged Property that, in its discretion, may seem appropriate; (vii) insure and reinsure the Collateral for all risks incidental to the Mortgagee’s possession, operation and management thereof; and (viii) receive all such Revenues and proceeds, and perform such other acts in connection with the management and operation of the Collateral, as the Mortgagee may deem proper, the Mortgagor hereby granting the Mortgagee full power and authority to exercise each and every one of the rights, privileges and powers contained herein at any and all times after any Event of Default. Upon default and notice by the Mortgagee, the foregoing provisions constitute a full assignment of the Revenues to Mortgagee. The Mortgagee, in the exercise of the rights and powers conferred upon it hereby, shall have full power to use and apply the Revenues to the payment of or on account of the following, in such order as it may determine: (a) to the payment of the operating expenses of the Mortgaged Property, including the cost of management and leasing thereof (which shall include reasonable compensation to the Mortgagee and its agents or contractors, if management be delegated to agents or contractors, and it shall also include lease commissions and other compensation and expenses of seeking and procuring tenants and entering into Leases), established claims for damages, if any, and premiums on insurance hereinabove authorized; (b) to the payment of taxes, charges and special assessments, the costs of all repairs, decorating, renewals, replacements, alterations, additions, betterments and improvements of the Collateral, including the cost from time to time of installing, replacing or repairing the Collateral, and of placing the Collateral in such condition as will, in the reasonable judgment of the Mortgagee, make it readily rentable; and (c) to the payment of any Liabilities.

6.          Rights and Remedies. Whenever there exists an Event of Default hereunder that is continuing, the Mortgagee may exercise from time to time any rights and remedies available to it under applicable law upon default in payment of indebtedness. The Mortgagor shall, promptly upon request by the Mortgagee, assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Mortgagee at such place or places, reasonably convenient for both the Mortgagee and the Mortgagor, as the Mortgagee shall designate, and all as may be permitted by the licenses and permits applicable to the Project and applicable law. Any notification required by law of intended disposition by the Mortgagee of any of the Collateral shall be deemed reasonably and properly given if given at least twenty (20) days before such disposition. Without limiting the foregoing, whenever there exists an Event of Default hereunder, and while it continues, the Mortgagee may, with respect to so much of the Collateral as is Goods and General Intangibles under applicable law, including, without limitation, Environmental Laws and the permits and licenses applicable to the Project, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, without further notice, advertisement, hearing or process of law of any kind, (i) notify any Person obligated on the Collateral to perform directly for the Mortgagee its obligations thereunder, (ii) enforce collection of any of the Collateral by suit or otherwise, and surrender, release or exchange all or any part thereof or compromise or extend or renew for any period (whether or not longer than the original period) any obligations of any nature of any party with respect thereto, (iii) endorse any checks, drafts or other writings in the name of the Mortgagor to allow collection of the Collateral, (iv) take control of any proceeds of the Collateral, (v) enter upon any Mortgaged Property where any of the Collateral may be located and take possession of and remove such Collateral, (vi) sell any or all of the Collateral, free of all rights and claims of the Mortgagor therein and thereto, at any public or private sale, and (vii) bid for and purchase any or all of the Collateral at any such sale as provided by applicable law. Any proceeds of any disposition by the Mortgagee of any of the Collateral may be applied by the Mortgagee to the payment of expenses in connection with the Collateral, including attorneys’ fees and legal expenses, and any balance of such proceeds shall be applied by the Mortgagee toward the payment of such of the Liabilities and in such order of application as the Mortgagee may from time to time elect. The Mortgagee may exercise from time to time any rights and remedies available to it under the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law as in effect from time to time or otherwise available to it under applicable law. The Mortgagor hereby expressly waives presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest and notice of protest in connection with the Indenture, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. The Mortgagor hereby constitutes the Mortgagee its attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution to take possession of the Collateral upon any Event of Default and to execute and deliver all instruments required by the Mortgagee to accomplish the disposition of the Collateral, this power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and is irrevocable while any of the Liabilities are outstanding.

7.          Performance of Contracts. The Mortgagee may, in its reasonable discretion at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, notify any person obligated to the Mortgagor under or with respect to any General Intangible, any Contract for Sale, Product Sales Contracts or Post-Production Contract of the existence of an Event of Default, require that performance be made directly to the Mortgagee at the Mortgagor’s expense, and advance such sums as are necessary or appropriate to satisfy the Mortgagor’s obligations thereunder; and the Mortgagor agrees to cooperate with the Mortgagee in all ways reasonably requested by the Mortgagee (including the giving of any notices requested by, or joining in any notices given by, the Mortgagee) to accomplish the foregoing.

8.          No Liability of Mortgagee. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Mortgage, the Mortgagee shall not be obligated to perform or discharge, and does not undertake to perform or discharge, any obligation, duty or liability of the Mortgagor, whether under this Mortgage, under any of the Leases, under any General Intangible, under any Contract for Sale, Purchase Sales Contract, Post-Production Contract or otherwise.

Whenever possible, each provision of this Mortgage shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Mortgage shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity only, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Mortgage, it being the parties’ intention that this Mortgage and each provision hereof be effective and enforced to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. The Section headings used herein are for convenience of reference only, and shall not be deemed to be a part of this Mortgage or be considered in the interpretation, or construction thereof.

11.         No Merger. It being the desire and intention of the parties hereto that this Mortgage and the lien hereof do not merge in title to the Mortgaged Property, it is hereby understood and agreed that should the Mortgagee acquire an additional or other interests in or to the Mortgaged Property or the ownership thereof, then, unless a contrary intent is manifested by the Mortgagee as evidenced by an express statement to that effect in an appropriate document duly recorded, this Mortgage and the lien hereof shall not merge in title, toward the end that this Mortgage may be foreclosed as if owned by a stranger to the title.

13.         Compliance with Wyoming Foreclosure Law.

(a)          If any provision of this Mortgage is inconsistent with any applicable provision of the laws of the State of Wyoming with respect to the foreclosure of real estate mortgages, deeds to secure debt, deeds of trust or similar instruments (such laws, if any, being hereinafter referred to as the “Applicable Law”), the provisions of Applicable Law shall take precedence over the provisions of this Mortgage, but shall not invalidate or render unenforceable any other provision of this Mortgage that can fairly be construed in a manner consistent with the Act.

(b)          Without in any way limiting or restricting any of Mortgagee’s rights, remedies, powers and authorities under this Mortgage, and in addition to all of such rights, remedies, powers, and authorities, the Mortgagee shall also have and may exercise any and all rights, remedies, powers and authorities which the holder of a mortgage is permitted to have or exercise under the provisions of the Act, as the same may be amended from time to time. If any provision of this Mortgage shall grant to Mortgagee any rights, remedies, powers or authorities upon default of the Mortgagor which are more limited than the rights that would otherwise be vested in Mortgagee under the Act in the absence of said provision, Mortgagee shall be vested with all of the rights, remedies, powers and authorities granted in the Act to the fullest extent permitted by law.

(c)          Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all expenses incurred by Mortgagee, to the extent reimbursable under any applicable provision of Applicable Law, whether incurred before or after any decree or judgment of foreclosure, and whether or not enumerated in any other provision of this Mortgage, shall be added to the indebtedness secured by this Mortgage and by the judgment of foreclosure.

14.         No Third-Party Manager’s Lien. Any management or operating agreement for or relating to all or any part of the Mortgaged Property, whether now in effect or entered into hereafter by the Mortgagor or any agent of the Mortgagor, with a third-party manager shall contain a “no lien” provision whereby the third-party manager forever and unconditionally waives and releases any and all mechanics’ lien rights and claims that it or anyone claiming through or under it may have at any time pursuant to any statute or law (including, without limitation, Wyo. Stat. §§ 29-2-10l, et seq. ). Such third-party management agreement or a short form thereof including such waiver shall, at the Mortgagee’s request, be recorded with the office of the recorder of deeds for the county or other area in which the Mortgaged Property is located. In addition, the Mortgagor shall cause the third-party manager to enter into a subordination agreement with the Mortgagee, in recordable form, whereby the third-party manager subordinates its present and future lien rights and those of any party claiming by, through or under it, to the lien of this Mortgage. The Mortgagor’s failure to cause any of the foregoing to occur shall constitute a default under this Mortgage.
