AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

This AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (this “ Agreement ”) is entered into as of October 19, 2017, by and among Gold Torrent, Inc., a Nevada corporation ( “ GOTR US” ), Gold Torrent (Canada) Inc. a corporation organized under the laws of British Columbia, Canada and wholly owned subsidiary of GTOR US (“ GTOR Canada ”), and GTOR US Merger Co, a Nevada corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of GTOR Canada (“ US Merger Co ”).

RECITALS:

1. The Boards of Directors of each of GTOR US, GTOR Canada and US Merger Co have unanimously determined that it is advisable and in the best interests of their respective shareholders to reorganize so that GTOR Canada will become the parent company of GTOR US as a result of the merger of US Merger Co with and into GTOR US, with GTOR US surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of GTOR Canada (the “ Merger ”).

2. The Boards of Directors of each of GTOR US, GTOR Canada and US Merger Co have unanimously approved the Merger, this Agreement and, to the extent applicable, the other transactions described herein upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and whereby each issued share of common stock, par value US $0.001 per share, of GTOR US (“ GTOR US Common Stock ”), other than those shares of GTOR US Common Stock held by GTOR US in treasury, shall be effectively converted into shares in GTOR Canada whereby shareholders of GTOR US will receive one common share in the capital of GTOR Canada (a “ GTOR Canada Common Share ”) for each share of GTOR US Common Stock outstanding.

3. The Merger requires, among other things, the adoption of this Agreement by the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of GTOR US Common Stock entitled to vote on the matter.

4. The parties to this Agreement intend that the Merger qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “ Code ”), and that this Agreement shall be, and hereby is, adopted as a “plan of reorganization” for purposes of Section 368(a) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the covenants and agreements contained herein, and of other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

CANCELLATION AND CONVERSION

OF STOCK

SECTION 3.1 Effect on Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder of any shares of either GTOR US, GTOR Canada or US Merger Co:

(a) Cancellation of GTOR US Stock . Each issued share of GTOR US Common Stock that is owned immediately prior to the Effective Time by GTOR US as a treasury share or by GTOR Canada, US Merger Co or any subsidiary of GTOR US shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered or deliverable in connection with such cancellation.

(b) Conversion of Remaining GTOR US Shares . Exception for GTOR Common Shares subject to properly executed dissenters rights outlined in Section 3.3 below, each issued and outstanding share of GTOR US Common Stock (other than the shares of GTOR US Common Stock to be cancelled in accordance with Section 3.1(a)) shall be effectively transferred to GTOR Canada and converted into one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable GTOR Canada Common Share. GTOR Canada shall add to the stated capital account maintained for the GTOR Canada Common Shares an amount equal to the fair market value of the GTOR US Common Stock so transferred and converted into GTOR Canada Common Shares.

(c) Conversion of US Merger Co Capital Stock . Each issued and outstanding share of common stock, par value US $0.01 per share, of US Merger Co shall be converted into one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value US $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

(d) Stock-Based Compensation Plans . GTOR US shall assign, and GTOR Canada shall assume, GTOR US’s rights and obligations under the stock-based benefit and compensation plans and programs and agreements providing for the grant or award of restricted stock, stock units, stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance shares, performance units, dividend equivalent rights, and share awards to the employees and directors of GTOR US and its affiliates (collectively, the “ Stock Plans ”) in accordance with Article IV of this Agreement. To the extent a Stock Plan provides for awards of incentive stock options pursuant to Section 422 of the Code, approval of such plan by GTOR US, as the sole stockholder of GTOR Canada, shall to the extent necessary be deemed, as of the Effective Time, to constitute GTOR Canada’s shareholder approval for purposes of Section 422(b) of the Code. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing shall prohibit GTOR Canada from requiring its subsidiaries, including GTOR US, to reimburse GTOR Canada for the costs of equity compensation issued to the applicable subsidiary’s employees pursuant to the Stock Plans.

SECTION 3.2 Direct Registration of GTOR Canada Shares.

(a) At the Effective Time, (i) record ownership of the GTOR Canada Common Shares into which the issued and outstanding shares of GTOR US Common Stock were converted in accordance with Section 3.1(b) shall, except as provided in clause (ii), be kept in uncertificated, book entry form by GTOR Canada’s transfer agent, and (ii) any certificate representing such shares of GTOR US Common Stock shall automatically represent the same number of GTOR Canada Common Shares.

(b) At the Effective Time, holders of GTOR US Common Stock will cease to be, and will have no rights as, stockholders of GTOR US, other than the right to receive: (i) any dividend or other distribution with a record date prior to the Effective Time that may have been declared or made by GTOR US on such shares of GTOR US Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or prior to the date of this Agreement and that remain unpaid at the Effective Time; and (ii) the GTOR Canada Common Shares pursuant to Section 3.1(b). At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of GTOR US shall be closed and from and after the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the shares of GTOR US Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

SECTION 3.3 Dissenters’ Rights. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, if any shares of GTOR US Common Stock held by a shareholder who is entitled to demand, and who has effectively demanded and not withdrawn or lost, such shareholder’s dissenters’ rights under the Nevada Corporations Code (the “ Dissenting Shares ”) shall not be converted into or represent a right to receive any GTOR Canada Common Shares for such shareholder’s shares of GTOR US Common Stock set forth in Section 3.1, but in lieu thereof, such shareholder shall only be entitled to such consideration from GTOR US as is provided by the Nevada Corporations Code. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 3.3, if any holder of Dissenting Shares shall effectively withdraw or lose (through failure to perfect or otherwise) such holder’s dissenters’ rights under the Nevada Corporations Code, then, as of the later of the Effective Time and the occurrence of such event, such holder’s shares shall automatically be converted into and represent only the right to receive the consideration for GTOR US Common Stock, as applicable, set forth in Section 3.1, without interest thereon.

ARTICLE IV

EMPLOYEE BENEFIT AND COMPENSATION PLANS AND AGREEMENTS

(a) At the Effective Time, GTOR US shall assign and GTOR Canada shall assume the rights and obligations of GTOR US under each Stock Plan listed on Exhibit A (the “ Assumed Equity Plans ”).

(b) To the extent any Stock Plan or any applicable agreement relating thereto provides for the issuance, delivery or purchase of, or otherwise relates to, GTOR US Common Stock, from and after the Effective Time, such Stock Plan or applicable agreement shall be deemed to have been amended to provide for the issuance, delivery or purchase of, or otherwise relate to, GTOR Canada Common Shares, and all options or awards issued, or benefits available or based upon the value of a specified number of shares of GTOR US Common Stock, under such Stock Plan after the Effective Time shall entitle the holder thereof to purchase, receive, acquire, hold or realize the benefits measured by the value of, as appropriate, an equivalent number of GTOR Canada Common Shares in accordance with the terms of such Stock Plan and any applicable agreement relating thereto. The outstanding options or other awards or benefits available under the terms of the Stock Plans at and following the Effective Time shall, to the extent permitted by law and otherwise reasonably practicable, otherwise be exercisable, payable, issuable or available upon the same terms and conditions as under such Stock Plans and the agreements relating thereto immediately prior to the Effective Time (including, for greater certainty, having the same option exercise or measurement price). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the number of GTOR Canada Common Shares issuable or available upon the exercise, payment, issuance or availability of such option, award or benefit immediately after the Effective Time, and the option exercise or measurement price of each such option, award or benefit, shall be subject to adjustment by GTOR Canada only to the extent necessary to ensure that the spread between the exercise price and fair market value of the shares subject to the option or stock appreciation right, and for other awards the fair market value of such awards or benefits, is no more after the Effective Time as compared to immediately prior to the Effective Time. The foregoing adjustments shall be made in accordance with applicable law (and administrative practice of applicable governmental authorities), including but not limited to Section 409A of the Code and the U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, Subsection 7(1.4) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “ Canadian Tax Act ”), or Regulation 6801(d) of the regulations promulgated under the Canada Tax Act, to the extent such provisions are applicable to an option, award, or benefit. Other than as set forth above, the Merger will not affect the underlying terms or conditions of any outstanding equity awards, which shall remain subject to their original terms and conditions.

(c) At the Effective Time, the obligations of GTOR US under or with respect to each plan, trust, agreement, program or benefit listed on Exhibit B (collectively, the “ Assumed Benefit Plans ” and, together with the Assumed Equity Plans, the “ Assumed Plans ”) shall become the lawful obligations of GTOR Canada and shall be implemented and administered in the same manner and without interruption until the same are amended or otherwise lawfully altered or terminated. Effective at the Effective Time, GTOR Canada hereby expressly adopts and assumes all obligations of GTOR US under the Assumed Benefit Plans.

(d) Such amendments or other actions that are deemed necessary or appropriate by GTOR US and GTOR Canada to effect the Merger, including to facilitate the assumption by GTOR Canada of the Assumed Plans, and any other amendments or actions that GTOR US and GTOR Canada shall deem advisable, shall be adopted and entered into with respect to the Assumed Plans.
