In return for the US$8 million cash consideration, (a) Triple Flag, through its subsidiary Triple Flag US, has received an additional 1.67% net smelter returns royalty on Talon Metals’ interest in the Tamarack Project, and (b) Talon Metals has issued 8,000,000 common share purchase warrants, each exercisable to acquire one common share of Talon Metals for a period of two years at an exercise price of C$0.20 per share.
