Waterbury East and McTavish Projects

Terra may earn up to an 80% interest in each of the Waterbury East and McTavish projects by undertaking work and payments in three defined earn-in stages on each project (tables 1 and 2). Cumulatively, Terra may earn an initial 40% interest (“40% Option”) in the projects by paying the Company A$100,000 cash and issuing 12% worth of common shares at listing on the Australian Securities Exchange by December 31, 2021. Cumulatively, Terra may earn an additional 20% interest (“60% Option”) in the projects by paying a further A$400,000 and incur A$5,000,000 in exploration expenditures within 18 months of ASX approval date. Cumulatively, Terra may earn an additional 20% interest (“80% Option”) in the projects by delivering and filing a JORC compliant resource of at least 30,000,000 pounds U₃O₈ on any of the Waterbury East or McTavish claims, and granting to the Company a 2.25% net smelter returns (NSR) royalty on all products derived from the claims, within 36 months of ASX listing date. CanAlaska will be operator of the projects through the 60% Option threshold and charge a 20% operator fee to Terra.

After successful completion of either of the 40% Option or 60% Option stages of the agreement, and if Terra elects to not enter the final stage, a joint venture will be formed and the parties will co-contribute on a simple pro-rata basis or dilute on a pre-defined straight-line dilution formula. If either party dilutes to a 10% interest, the diluting party will automatically forfeit its interest in the respective project and in lieu thereof will be granted a 2.0% net smelter returns (NSR) royalty on the respective property.

An area of mutual interest will be established that extends two kilometres from the boundary of the claims.
