In 2002, Teck Resources Limited (“Teck”) entered into an option agreement whereby Copper Fox could earn 100% of Teck’s interest in the Schaft Creek property and 100% interest in Teck’s (78.05%) shareholdings of Liard Copper Mines Ltd., subject to a “back-in-right” in the Schaft Creek property by meeting the obligation set out in the option agreement.
In July 2013, Teck and Copper Fox entered into an agreement for the formation of the Schaft Creek Joint Venture whereby Teck holds a 75% interest and Copper Fox holds a 25% interest in the Schaft Creek property and Liard shares (see news release dated July 16, 2013).

3. Copper Fox has accepted its right to have the Liard shares contributed to SCJV, and Copper Fox’s share of the purchase price will be deemed to be included in the Pre-Production Costs as that term is defined in the Schaft Creek Joint Venture Agreement,
