10. Canadian Regulatory Overview • Canadian Securities Laws • Laws are largely harmonized through national instruments: • Prospectus offerings • Exempt offerings (private placements) - applicable 4-month hold period for purchased securities • Take-over bids • Continuous disclosure obligations • Corporate governance • Companies deal with a designated principal regulator • Toronto Stock Exchange Rules • TSX Company Manual • TSX Venture Exchange Corporate Finance Manual • Corporate Laws • Company not required to be incorporated in Canada • No requirement to have resident Canadian directors

11. Peru Regulatory Overview • Peru shows itself as having a friendly market environment for business • There are no taxes or restrictions on short term or long term capital flows in or out of the country • The exchange rate is market driven and there are no taxes or restrictions to buying/selling foreign currency in Peru • Canada and Peru have signed 3 agreements effective August 1, 2009: • Canada-Peru Free Trade Agreement • Labour Cooperation Agreement • Agreement on the Environment

12. The BVL • Bolsa de Valores de Lima (BVL) is the only stock exchange in Peru. Moreover, it is the only one in the region which has a Mining Venture Exchange • The BVL is regulated by the Comisión Nacional Supervisora de Empresas y Valores – CONASEV (Securities Exchange Commission) • The BVL is a public company and its shares are traded on the Peruvian equity market • Trading is conducted through an electronic system, which guarantees a transparent and efficient market. IT IS THE ONLY STOCK EXCHANGE LINKED TO CDS, which makes for easy clearing and settlement for dual-listed companies • The SEC recognizes the BVL as a designated offshore securities market under “S” regulations

13. The BVL–V • The BVL-V is the venture market specially designed for mining companies • It is the only Venture Exchange segment in Latin America • It is only for mining companies in the prospecting phase • It provides liquidity through stock sales • The BVL-V is a segment based on high international standards (AIM, TSX-V, ASX) • It provides attractive investment options • Once your company is listed on the BVL-V it can be easily listed on the BVL, Peru’s regular stock market

14. Practical differences for BVL companies interested in listing on the TSX • Peruvian companies wishing to achieve a TSX listing or interested in raising capital should be prepared for a greater volume and complexity of legal documentation • TSX listings and Canadian capital raisings involve lawyers to a far greater degree than in Lima (even for routine placements), since transactions are “lawyer-driven”, due to Canadian stock exchange and securities regulation • There are differences in documentation required for TSX and BVL listings • TSX requires that the Board have independent directors, and directors with experience in Canadian capital markets • Increased costs in terms of management time, frequent travel to Canada, and additional resources to list as a TSX entity, should be contemplated

15. Advantages of listing on the TSX and the TSX–V • Market sentiment: Certain North American investors may be more attracted to a company with a "local" listing • Access to capital for growth: BVL does not provide access to the levels of investment capital that are available on the TSX • Heightened company profile: Increased press coverage and analyst's reports, helping to maintain liquidity of shares • Objective market value: Potential re-rating or revaluation of the company • Increased liquidity • New market for shares

16. Advantages of listing on the BVL and the BVL–V • Peruvian investors have an appetite for locally-listed companies • BVL has streamlined its processes to match the TSX / TSX-V more than other international exchanges (AIM, ASX, Johannesburg) • Favorable economic conditions and a rapidly growing globalization process • Local industry knowledge • Secure funding for the exploration phase through the BVL-V, allowing you to save other sources of funding for other phases of the mining process • Enjoy the benefit of having the shares of your company listed in two different stock markets at the same time, following a simplified procedure

17. Doubling Up: The TSX / TSX-V and BVL / BVL-V • If your company is already listed on TSX, you may list on BVL without making a Primary Public Offer • On-going expenses - underwriting, legal (all applicable jurisdictions), audit, registrar and transfer fees, fees to stock exchanges, fees to securities regulators • Corporate governance more complicated since issuer is listed in multiple jurisdictions • Continuous disclosure obligations and regulatory compliance • Dual-listings help to increase companies’ liquidity in their main market • Check to see if there are exemptions under various rules for foreign issuers

18. Doubling Up: MILA Integrated Market • MILA - after its initials in Spanish - is the Integrated Latin American Market formed by the BVL and the Colombian and Chilean Stock Markets - “Bolsa de Valores de Colombia (“BVC”)” and “Bolsa de Comercio de Santiago (“BCS”)” • It started functioning on May 30th, 2011, pursuant to Resolution 107-2010, issued by CONASEV on October 29, 2010 • MILA is the largest market in the region in number of issuers, the second largest in market capitalization and third in terms of trading volume after Brazil and Mexico • The listing is automatic for an issuer listed on the BVL, at its request • Any investor able to invest in its local market, can do so through MILA without additional requirements • It allows the issuer to: have access to a wider market, expand demand for its own financing by attracting the interest of more investors, and reducing capital costs for companies • Ensures harmonization of practices, standards and market regulations with the realities of a globalized market • Markets are access through an automatic and international routing model • Technology strengthening implementation of international standards • Recognition of securities/foreign issuers (integrated market) for public offering in the three markets

19. Doubling Up: MILA Integrated Market (cont.) • Each Exchange continues to manage its own market. Moreover, the negotiations are conducted according to the rules of the market where the securities are listed. The exchanges manage accounts according to the rules where the shares are listed • Supervision of issuers is the responsibility of the authority of the country in which the respective issuer and/or security (i.e. in Peru, CONASEV) is listed • Relevant information or events of importance of the issuers must be simultaneously available to all market participants of the integrated market, pursuant to the rules of its primary market • MILA provides different options for investors, since BCS is strong in commercial and energy stocks, BVL has a solid reputation in the mining sector and BVC is well known for petroleum and holding companies • Transactions are performed in local currencies (Colombian pesos / Peruvian soles / Chilean pesos) • The relationship of intermediaries in each country will be with the local Exchanges, with local deposits and local authorities • In order for a Colombian or Chilean intermediary to have access to the Peruvian shares traded on MILA, subscription service agreements with local intermediaries are required • Foreign investment treatment makes it easier for capital flows among the markets

20. MILA Trading Volume Integrated Shares Market trade: US$250-$300 Million daily

21. Listing foreign securities on BVL–V already listed on TSX–V • The mining companies already listed on TSX-V, pursuant to Section 314 (b) of the Corporate Manual issued by the TSX, are deemed Junior Mining Companies Category II by the BVL-V, and therefore the submission requirements for such companies to list their securities on BVL-V are less strict and very straightforward • The securities of a Junior Mining Company Category II will be automatically listed on the BVL, upon request by the issuer or a stock exchange agent, and after complying with certain requirements, and verifying that the securities are indeed traded on TSX-V • The BVL will be responsible for facilitating access to the public information system which provides the information submitted by the Junior Company to the TSX-V

The maximum amount required to be paid for the initial listing is S/. 23,100, which gives the company the right to list any amount of shares they want. The maximum amount required to be paid as maintenance fee is S/.825 • Regular mining companies are required to pay an initial listing fee and maintenance fee depending on the number of shares they will list and the amount of capital stock registered with the BVL
