On November 8, 2012, but having an effective date of November 1, 2012, Passport Potash Inc. (the “Company” or “Passport Potash”) and The Hopi Tribe, a federally recognized Indian Tribe, entered into a Joint Exploration Agreement (the “Agreement”) pursuant to which the parties agree to explore the Hopi land sections (the “Hopi Property”) which are checker-boarded with the Company’s southern landholdings in accordance with an exploration program, which shall consist of a two-phase drilling campaign as set out in Exhibit 2 to the Agreement. The first phase of the exploration program will include 8 drill sites and will cover a 25,000 acre swath of the contiguous land sections in the DoBell ranch area of the Holbrook Basin. The second phase of drilling, which will be designed by ERCOSPLAN guided from the results from phase one, will include up to 10 additional drill sites. The Company will be responsible for all costs, charges and expenses incurred in connection with the exploration program.

In addition, under the Agreement, the Company shall indemnify, defend, release, and hold harmless The Hopi Tribe and its elected officials, advisors and contractors, employees, agents, lessees, insurers, successors and assigns (the “Indemnities”) for, against and from any claim, damage, lien, loss, cost, charge, expense (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) or liability resulting from, or caused by, or incurred in connection with, or alleged to have resulted from, or been caused by, or been incurred in connection with, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, the exploration program. The Company’s payment and indemnity obligations shall survive the termination of the Agreement.

Pursuant to the Agreement, the Hopi Tribe grants the Company and its contractors, which includes any employee or contractor involved in the exploration program (as defined in the Agreement), a limited license on the terms and conditions, and during the term of the Agreement to (a) enter and cross existing ranch roads on Hopi Property for ingress and egress purposes related to the exploration program, (b) blade new roads to drill sites on the Hopi Property designated by ERCOSPLAN, (c) drill exploratory holes on the Hopi Property at drill sites designated by ERCOSPLAN, (d) lay cables across the Hopi Property for purposes of seismic studies that are part of the exploration program, (e) drive a vibrator truck along seismic lines, and (f) blade existing ranch roads on the Hopi Property The Company and its contractors shall not use the Hopi Property for any other purpose without the prior written approval of The Hopi Tribe; provided, that with respect to use of the Hopi Property identified by ERCOSPLAN in writing as necessary or desirable for purposes of the exploration program, The Hopi Tribe’s approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Except as otherwise expressly set forth in the Agreement, the Company and The Hopi Tribe shall each separately have the right to possess and use all exploration program results for any purpose. In addition, The Hopi Tribe and the Company, and their respective successors and assigns, may use and freely disclose exploration program results received under this Agreement without prior approval of the other for its or such successors’ or assigns’ internal use, and for review and use by geologists and other outside advisors engaged by it (including ERCOSPLAN) or its successors or assigns, lenders and prospective lenders, venture partners and prospective venture partners, and others who are subject to confidentiality agreements consistent with the disclosing party’s obligations under the Agreement; provided, no exploration program results shall be shared with venture partners or prospective venture partners by The Hopi Tribe other than the Company or persons approved in writing by the Company in its discretion prior to the earlier of (1) expiration or termination of one or more of the Company’s mineral exploration permits from the Arizona State Land Department pertaining to the Company property, or (2) October 15, 2014 (such earlier date, the “Automatic Termination Date”).
