The Arrangement

On November 5, 2015, Northern Gold and Oban entered into a definitive arrangement agreement (the "Arrangement Agreement") to carry out a business combination by way of a plan of arrangement under Section 182 of the Business Corporations Act (Ontario).

Pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement, Northern Gold Shareholders (other than any Northern Gold Shareholders validly exercising dissent rights) will receive, in the aggregate, 4,000,000 common shares in the capital of Oban (the "Oban Shares"), subject to reduction for any common shares of Northern Gold held by any Northern Gold Shareholders validly exercising dissent rights ("Exchange Ratio"). In addition, on the effective date of the Arrangement, each common share purchase warrant of Northern Gold that remains unexercised shall be exchanged by the holder thereof for a warrant to purchase from Oban (each, a "Replacement Oban Warrant") such number of Oban Shares at an exercise price as is adjusted in accordance with the Exchange Ratio. All other terms and conditions of the Replacement Oban Warrant will be the same as the warrant for which they were exchanged. Finally, Northern Gold shall facilitate the acceleration of all options to acquire common shares of Northern Gold ("Northern Options") to allow holders thereof to exercise such Northern Options prior to the effective time of the Arrangement. Any Northern Options that have not been exercised prior to the effective time of the Arrangement will be cancelled in accordance with the Arrangement without any payment thereon and without any further act or formality.
