(2) If any Secured Party shall obtain Payment in respect of any of its Secured Liabilities (including by way of set-off or counterclaim) resulting in such Secured Party receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Secured Liabilities than the proportion received by any other Secured Party on its Secured Liabilities, then the Secured Party receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Secured Liabilities owed to other Secured Parties (as applicable) to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Secured Parties rateably in accordance with the aggregate amount of their respective Secured Liabilities; provided that (a) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (b) this Section 2.3(2) shall not apply to: (a) any Payment made by the Company pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement; (b) any Payment obtained by a Bank as consideration for the assignment of, or sale of a participation in, any of its Secured Prepaid Forward Obligations; (c) netting under or as between Secured Hedge Arrangements; (d) any Permitted Prepaid Forward Payment; and (e) any Permitted Hedge Payment.

If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court in any jurisdiction with respect to this Agreement or any other Credit Document, it becomes necessary to convert into a particular currency (the “Judgment Currency”) any amount due under this Agreement or under any other Credit Document in any currency other than the Judgment Currency (the “Currency Due”), then conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Business Day before the day on which judgment is given. For this purpose “rate of exchange” means the rate at which the Administrative Agent is able, on the relevant date, to purchase the Currency Due with the Judgment Currency in accordance with its normal practice. In the event that there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which the judgment is given and the date of receipt by the Administrative Agent of the amount due, the Company shall, on the date of receipt by the Administrative Agent, pay such additional
- 49 - 1399-1964-3930.19 Supplementary Terms Agreement – i-80 Gold Corp. amounts, if any, or be entitled to receive reimbursement of such amount, if any, as may be necessary to ensure that the amount received by the Administrative Agent on such date is the amount in the Judgment Currency which when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of receipt by the Administrative Agent is the amount then due under this Agreement or such other Credit Document in the Currency Due. If the amount of the Currency Due which the Administrative Agent is so able to purchase is less than the amount of the Currency Due originally due to it, the Company shall indemnify and save the Administrative Agent and the Banks harmless from and against all loss or damage arising as a result of such deficiency. This indemnity shall constitute an obligation separate and independent from the other obligations contained in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by the Administrative Agent from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum in respect of an amount due under this Agreement or any other Credit Document or under any judgment or order.

ARTICLE 8 THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 8.1 Appointment of Administrative Agent. Each Bank hereby designates National Bank of Canada as Administrative Agent to act as herein specified and as specified in the other Credit Documents.

The Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder by or through its agents or employees. Each Bank hereby (a) irrevocably authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver the Orion Intercreditor Agreement, the FN No Interest Letter and each other intercreditor agreement or subordination agreement contemplated by this Agreement, in each case, on behalf of such Bank, and (b) agrees that the Orion Intercreditor Agreement, the FN No Interest Letter and any such other intercreditor agreement or subordination agreement contemplated by this Agreement shall, in each case, be a binding obligation of such Bank, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.

Nothing in this Agreement or the other Credit Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon the Administrative Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement except as expressly set out herein. The Administrative Agent shall be under no duty to take any discretionary action permitted to be taken by it pursuant to this Agreement or the other Credit Documents unless it is requested in writing to do so by the Required Banks. 8.4 Lack of Reliance on the Administrative Agent.

If the Administrative Agent shall request instructions from the Banks or the Required Banks (as the case may be) with respect to any act or action (including the failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or the other Credit Documents, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received written instructions from the Banks or the Required Banks, as applicable, and the Administrative Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall reimburse a Bank for any payment pursuant to this Section 8.7.

With respect to its obligations under this Agreement and the Secured Prepaid Forward Arrangements made by it, National Bank of Canada in its capacity as a Bank hereunder, shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not performing the duties, if any, specified herein; and the terms “Banks”, “Required Banks” and any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include National Bank of Canada in its capacity as a Bank hereunder.

If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Banks, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation of the retiring Administrative Agent, then, upon five Business Days’ notice to the Company, the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent (subject to approval of the Company, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), which shall be a financial institution organized under the laws of Canada having a combined capital and surplus of at least Cdn.$1,000,000,000 or having a parent company with combined capital and surplus of at least Cdn.$1,000,000,000. (2) Rights, Powers, etc. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 8 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. 8.10 No Independent Legal Action. Notwithstanding that any debt arising hereunder to a Bank shall be separate and independent debt, no Bank may take any independent legal action to enforce any obligation of the Company hereunder. Each Bank hereby acknowledges that, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Security Documents and the remedies provided thereunder to the Banks are for the benefit of the Banks collectively and acting together and not severally, and further acknowledges that each Bank’s rights hereunder and under the Security Documents are to be exercised collectively, not severally, by the Administrative Agent upon the decision of the Required Banks. Accordingly, notwithstanding any of the provisions contained herein or in the Security Documents, each of the Banks hereby covenants and agrees that it and its Related Non-Party Beneficiaries shall not be entitled to take any action hereunder or thereunder, including any declaration of default hereunder or thereunder, but that any such action shall be taken only by the Administrative Agent with the prior written agreement of the Required Banks, provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, in
- 88 - 1399-1964-3930.19 Supplementary Terms Agreement – i-80 Gold Corp. the absence of instructions from the Banks (or the Required Banks) and where in the sole opinion of the Administrative Agent the exigencies of the situation so warrant such action, the Administrative Agent may without notice to or consent of the Banks (or the Required Banks) take such action on behalf of the Banks as it deems appropriate or desirable in the interests of the Banks. Each Bank hereby further covenants and agrees that upon any such written consent being given by the Required Banks (or, to the extent required by Section 9.2, the Banks), it and its Related Non-Party Beneficiaries shall co-operate fully with the Administrative Agent to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent, and each Bank further covenants and agrees that all proceeds from the realization of the Security Documents, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, are held for the benefit of all of the Banks and shall be shared among them in accordance with this Agreement, and each Bank acknowledges that all costs of any such realization (including all amounts for which the Administrative Agent is required to be indemnified under the provisions hereof) shall be shared among the Banks in accordance with this Agreement.

(1) Clawback. If the Administrative Agent (x) notifies a Bank , or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Bank under or pursuant to any of the Credit Documents (any such Bank or other recipient, and each of their respective successors and assigns, a “Payment Recipient”) that the Administrative Agent has determined in its reasonable discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under Section 8.11(2)) that any funds (as set forth in such notice from the Administrative Agent) received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously or mistakenly transmitted or paid to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Bank, other Bank or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether transmitted or received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and (y) demands in writing the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent pending its return or repayment as contemplated below in this Section 8.11(1) and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and such Bank shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than three Business Days thereafter (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, specify in writing), return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon (except to the extent waived in writing by the Administrative Agent) in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of (x) in respect of an Erroneous Payment in U.S. Dollars, the Federal Funds Rate, and in respect of an Erroneous Payment in Canadian Dollars or any other currency, at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the overnight rate at which Canadian Dollars or funds in the currency of such Erroneous Payment, as the case may be, may be borrowed by the Administrative Agent in the interbank market in an amount comparable to such Erroneous Payment (as
- 89 - 1399-1964-3930.19 Supplementary Terms Agreement – i-80 Gold Corp. determined by the Administrative Agent), and (y) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules or prevailing market practice for interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this Section 8.11(1) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. (2) Error Designation. Without limiting the immediately preceding Section 8.11(1), each Bank, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Bank (and each of their respective successors and assigns) under or pursuant to any of the Credit Documents, hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in this Agreement or in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Bank or Bank, or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, paid, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), then in each such case: (a) it acknowledges and agrees that (i) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error and mistake shall be presumed to have been made (absent express written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary), or (ii) an error and mistake has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and (b) such Bank shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of the occurrence of any of the circumstances described in the immediately preceding clauses (x),(y) and (z)) notify the Administrative Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 8.11(2). For the avoidance of doubt, the failure to deliver a notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 8.11(2) shall not have any effect on a Payment Recipient’s obligations pursuant to Section 8.11(1) or on whether or not an Erroneous Payment has been made. (3) Set-off. Each Bank hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set-off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Bank under any Credit Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Bank under any Credit Document with respect to any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts, against any amount that the Administrative Agent has demanded to be returned under Section 8.11(1). (4) Secured Liabilities Satisfaction. The Parties agree that (x) irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, in the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Payment Recipient that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights and interests of such Payment Recipient (and, in the case of any Payment Recipient who has received funds on behalf of a Bank, to the rights and interests of such Bank, as the case may be) under the Credit Documents with respect to such amount (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”), and (y) an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Secured Liabilities owed by the Company or any other Credit Party; provided that this Section 8.11(4) shall not be interpreted to increase (or accelerate the due date for), or have the effect of increasing (or accelerating the due date for), the obligations of the
- 90 - 1399-1964-3930.19 Supplementary Terms Agreement – i-80 Gold Corp. Company relative to the amount (and/or timing for payment) of the obligations that would have been payable had such Erroneous Payment not been made by the Administrative Agent; provided, further, that for the avoidance of doubt, immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y) shall not apply to the extent any such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from (i) the Company or any other Credit Party or (ii) the proceeds of realization from the enforcement of one or more of the Credit Documents against or in respect of one or more of the Credit Parties; provided that, in each case, such funds were received by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of discharging such Secured Liabilities. (5) Waiver of Defences. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defence or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including, without limitation, any defence based on “discharge for value”, “good consideration” for the Erroneous Payment or change of position by such Payment Recipient, any defence that the intent of the Administrative Agent was that such Payment Recipient retain the Erroneous Payment in all events, or any doctrine or defence similar to any of the foregoing. (6) Survival. Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 8.11 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, or any assignment or transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Bank or an Affiliate thereof the termination of the Secured Prepaid Forward Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Secured Liabilities (or any portion thereof) under any Credit Document. (7) Affiliates. For purposes of this Section 8.11, each Bank: (a) agrees it is executing and delivering this Agreement with respect to this Section 8.11 both on its own behalf and as agent for and on behalf of its Affiliates referred to in this Section 8.11 and any Person receiving funds under or pursuant to any of the Credit Documents on behalf of such Bank or any of such Affiliates; (b) represents, warrants, covenants and agrees that its Affiliates referred to in this Section 8.11 and any Person receiving funds under or pursuant to any of the Credit Documents on behalf of such Bank or any of such Affiliates are bound by the provisions of this Section 8.11; and (c) agrees that any matter or thing done or omitted to be done by such Bank, its Affiliates, or any Person receiving funds under or pursuant to any of the Credit Documents on behalf of such Bank or any of such Affiliates which are the subject of this Section 8.11 will be binding upon such Bank and such Bank does hereby indemnify and save the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates harmless from any and all losses, expenses, claims, demands or other liabilities of the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates resulting from the failure of such Bank, its Affiliates or such Persons to comply with their obligations under and in respect of this Section 8.11. (8) No Company Liability. Except pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment or the exercise of any Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights (or any equivalent equitable subrogation rights), the Company shall not have any liability to the Administrative Agent for any Erroneous Payment or any interest, loss, cost or damages related thereto or arising therefrom under any provision of this

(b) Notices sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed by certified or registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given when received. Notices delivered through Electronic Systems, to the extent provided in paragraph (c) below, shall be effective as provided in said paragraph (c). (c) Unless the Bank otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e- mail address shall be deemed received when sent, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient, at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i), of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor; provided that, for both clauses (i) and (ii) above, if such notice, email or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient. (4) Electronic Systems. (a) The Company agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make Communications (as defined below) available to the other Banks by posting the Communications on Debt Domain, Intralinks, Syndtrak, ClearPar or a substantially similar electronic system (each an “Electronic System”). Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Closing Date, a user ID/password authorization system) and the Approved Electronic Platform is secured through a per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the Banks and the Company acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure, that the Administrative Agent is not responsible for approving or vetting the representatives or contacts of any Bank that are added to the Approved Electronic Platform, and that there may be confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. Each of the Banks and the Company hereby approves distribution of the Communications through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution. (b) Any Electronic System used by the Administrative Agent is provided “as is” and “as available.” The Agent Parties (as defined below) do not warrant the adequacy of such Electronic Systems and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third- party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent Party in connection with the Communications or any Electronic System.

- 93 - 1399-1964-3930.19 Supplementary Terms Agreement – i-80 Gold Corp. jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of any Agent Party or such Group Party; provided that any Communication to any Banks, prospective Banks, Participants or prospective Participants or, to the extent such disclosure is otherwise permitted, to any other Person through an Electronic System shall be made subject to the acknowledgement and acceptance by such Person that such Communication is being disseminated or disclosed on a confidential basis (on terms substantially the same as set forth in Section 9.16 or otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Company), which shall in any event require “click through” or other affirmative actions on the part of the recipient to access such Communication. “Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or other material provided by or on behalf of any Group Party pursuant to any Credit Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed by the Administrative Agent or any Bank by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section, including through an Electronic System. 9.2 Waivers; Amendments. (1) Waiver. No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Bank in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Banks hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by the Company therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 9.2(2), and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the entry into a Secured Prepaid Forward Arrangement shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. (2) Amendments - General. Neither this Agreement nor any other Security Document (or any provision hereof or thereof) may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Company and the Required Banks or by the Company and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Banks (and for greater certainty, any such waiver, amendment or modification shall not require any consent or other agreement of any Credit Party other than the Company, notwithstanding that any such Credit Party may be a party to this Agreement or any other Credit Document); provided that no such agreement shall: (a) increase or decrease the amount of any Secured Prepaid Forward Commitment of any Bank except in accordance with Section 2.1(3); (b) change Section 2.3 in a manner that would alter the sharing of payments required thereby; (c) amend the definition of Permitted Prepaid Forward Payment, Secured Prepaid Forward Arrangement, Secured Liabilities or any of their constituent defined terms (other than Event of Default); (d) change any of the provisions of this Section 9.2 or the definition of “Required Banks” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Banks required to waive,

(3) Amendments - without Banks. Notwithstanding Section 9.2(2), the Administrative Agent may: (a) release and discharge the Liens constituted by the Security Documents or a Guarantor from the Company Guarantee to the extent necessary to enable a Credit Party to complete any Asset Disposition which is not prohibited by this Agreement or the other Credit Documents; (b) subordinate the Liens constituted by the Security Documents to any Lien permitted by clause (c) of the definition of Permitted Lien; and (c) together with the Company, amend, modify or supplement any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document as required to cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, typographical error or other defect identified by the Administrative Agent and the Company acting together, and all such actions shall become effective without any further action or consent of any Bank or any other party to this Agreement. 9.3 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

(1) This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which, when taken together, shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Counterparts may be executed either in original or faxed or other electronic form and the
- 100 - 1399-1964-3930.19 Supplementary Terms Agreement – i-80 Gold Corp. parties adopt any signatures received by a receiving fax machine or via e-mail as original signatures of the parties. (2) Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement or any other Credit Document by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of, or otherwise constitutes, the actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law; provided that nothing herein shall require the Administrative Agent to accept Electronic Signatures in any form or format without its prior written consent. (3) Each Party agrees that, at any time, the Administrative Agent and each Bank may convert paper records of this Agreement, the other Credit Documents and all other documentation delivered to the Administrative Agent hereunder in such capacity (each, a “Paper Record”) into electronic images (each, an “Electronic Image”) as part of the Administrative Agent’s or Bank’s, as applicable, normal business practices. Each party hereto agrees that each such Electronic Image shall be considered as an authoritative copy of the Paper Record and shall be legally binding on the parties and admissible in any legal, administrative or other proceeding as conclusive evidence of the contents of such document in the same manner as the original Paper Record. 9.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with the other Credit Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent), constitutes the entire agreement between the parties pertaining to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether oral or written. There are no conditions, warranties, representations or other agreements between the parties in connection with the subject matter of this Agreement (whether oral or written, express or implied, statutory or otherwise) except as specifically set out in this Agreement or in such other applicable agreements. 9.10 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability and shall be severed from the balance of this Agreement, all without affecting the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. 9.11 Right of Set Off. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the amounts then outstanding under the Credit Documents have become due and payable in accordance with the concluding paragraph of Section 7.1 (but subject always to Section 2.3(2)), each Bank is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Bank to or for the credit or the account of any Group Party against any of and all of the obligations of the Group Parties now or hereafter existing under the Credit Documents held by such Bank, irrespective of
- 101 - 1399-1964-3930.19 Supplementary Terms Agreement – i-80 Gold Corp. whether or not such Bank shall have made any demand under any Credit Document and although such obligations may be unmatured and regardless of the currency of the deposit. The applicable Bank shall notify the Company and the Administrative Agent of such set-off or application, provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such set-off or application under this Section 9.11.

For the purposes of this Section 9.16, “Information” means all information received from any Group Party relating to any Group Party, any of their subsidiaries or Affiliates, or their respective business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Bank on a non- confidential basis prior to disclosure by such Group Party; provided that, in the case of information received from a Group Party after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified as confidential in writing at the time of delivery. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 9.16 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. The Company agrees that it will not issue any press release or make any other kind of public announcement or filing, or consent to the issuance of any press release or the making of any other kind of public announcement or filing, regarding this Agreement and the terms contained herein unless the text of any such release, announcement or filing, and the time and manner in which such release, announcement or filing is made, has been approved by the Administrative Agent, except to the extent required by applicable Law (in which case the Company shall make all commercially reasonable efforts to provide advance notice of such release or announcement to the Administrative Agent and consult with the Administrative Agent as to the content thereof). The Company authorizes the Administrative Agent, following the initial advance hereunder and at the Bank’s expense, to announce and use for marketing purposes the establishment of the Secured Prepaid Forward Commitments, provided that the Company shall be provided an opportunity to review and approve the announcement before it is made. Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP may inform league table services, such as Thomson Reuters and Bloomberg, and make mention in its promotional publications and the media generally of its representation of the Administrative Agent with respect to the Transactions. 9.17 No Strict Construction. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. If an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favouring or disfavouring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement. 9.18 Release of Security. (a) Asset Disposals. Upon request from time to time by the Company, the Administrative Agent shall, at the expense of the Company, execute and deliver such releases and discharges of Security and authorizations to register discharges of registrations thereof as the Company may reasonably request in order to discharge the Security over specific items of Collateral disposed of by a Credit Party as permitted by the provisions of the Credit Documents and registrations thereof; provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be
- 103 - 1399-1964-3930.19 Supplementary Terms Agreement – i-80 Gold Corp. obliged to execute and deliver any such release and discharge or authorization pursuant to this Section 9.18(a) at any time an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. (b) Full Discharge. On or subsequent to the Termination Date, the Administrative Agent shall, at the request and expense of the Company, execute and deliver such releases and discharges of the Security and authorizations to discharge registrations thereof as the Company shall reasonably request. (c) Supplemental Release Documentation. In connection with any release required pursuant to Section 9.18(a) or (b), the Administrative Agent shall also execute and deliver (at the expense of the Company) to the Company all such other documents and instruments as the Company shall reasonably request to release or reconvey (without representation or warranty by, or recourse of any nature or kind against, the Administrative Agent) to a Credit Party any and all Collateral that is being released from the Security. Upon the written request of, and at the expense of, the Company, the Administrative Agent will release and discharge the Liens constituted by the Security Documents to the extent necessary to enable a Credit Party to complete any asset disposition which is not prohibited by this Agreement or the other Credit Documents. 9.19 Paramountcy. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of any other Credit Document then, notwithstanding anything contained in such other Credit Document, the provisions contained in this Agreement shall prevail to the extent of such conflict or inconsistency and the provisions of such other Credit Document shall be deemed to be amended to the extent necessary to eliminate such conflict or inconsistency, it being understood that the purpose of the other Credit Documents is (a) to add to, and not detract from, the panoply of rights granted to the Administrative Agent (for its own benefit and the benefit of the other Secured Parties) under this Agreement. If any act or omission of any or all Credit Parties is expressly permitted under this Agreement but is expressly prohibited under any other Credit Document, such act or omission shall be permitted. If any act or omission is expressly prohibited under any other Credit Document, but this Agreement does not expressly permit such act or omission, or if any act is expressly required to be performed under any other Credit Document but this Agreement does not expressly relieve any or all Credit Parties from such performance, such circumstance shall not constitute a conflict or inconsistency between the applicable provisions of such other Credit Document and the provisions of this Agreement. 9.20 Excluded Swap Obligations Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Credit Document, any Excluded Swap Obligations of a Guarantor shall be excluded from: (a) the definition of “Secured Liabilities” (or any similar definition) in any Credit Document as it pertains to such Guarantor, and no Lien granted by a such Guarantor under any Credit Document shall secure any Excluded Swap Obligations; and (b) the definition of “Debtor Liabilities” in the Company Guarantee as it pertains to such Guarantor, and no Excluded Swap Obligations shall be guaranteed or indemnified by such Guarantor under any Credit Document.
- 104 - 1399-1964-3930.19 Supplementary Terms Agreement – i-80 Gold Corp. 9.21 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. (1) The Company acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that no Bank will have any obligations hereunder except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents and each Bank is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to the Company with respect to the Credit Documents and the transaction contemplated therein and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, the Company or any other person. The Company agrees that it will not assert any claim against any Bank based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by such Bank in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Additionally, the Company acknowledges and agrees that no Bank is advising the Company as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting, regulatory or any other matters in any jurisdiction. The Company shall consult with its own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Banks shall have no responsibility or liability to the Company with respect thereto. (2) The Company further acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that any Bank may be a full-service securities or banking firm engaged in securities trading and brokerage activities as well as providing investment banking and other financial services. In the ordinary course of business, any Bank may provide investment banking and other financial services to, and/or acquire, hold or sell, for its own accounts and the accounts of customers, equity, debt and other securities and financial instruments (including prepaid forward arrangements and other obligations) of, the Company, its Subsidiaries and other companies with which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries may have commercial or other relationships. With respect to any securities and/or financial instruments so held by any Bank or any of its customers, all rights in respect of such securities and financial instruments, including any voting rights, will be exercised by the holder of the rights, in its sole discretion. (3) In addition, the Company acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that each Bank and its affiliates may be providing debt financing, equity capital or other services (including financial advisory services) to other companies in respect of which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries may have conflicting interests regarding the transactions described herein and otherwise. No Bank will use confidential information obtained from the Company by virtue of the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents or its other relationships with the Company in connection with the performance by such Bank of services for other companies, and no Bank will furnish any such information to other companies. The Company also acknowledges that no Bank has any obligation to use in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents, or to furnish to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, confidential information obtained from other companies. 9.22 Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Credit Documents provide support, through a Guarantee or otherwise, for any Hedge Arrangement, Prepaid Forward Arrangement or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support”, and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the Parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Credit Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of, inter alia, the Province of Ontario. In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and
- 105 - 1399-1964-3930.19 Supplementary Terms Agreement – i-80 Gold Corp. any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Credit Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Credit Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. 9.23 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. NO CLAIM MAY BE MADE BY ANY GROUP PARTY, ANY BANK OR ANY OTHER PERSON AGAINST ANY INDEMNITEE ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (AS OPPOSED TO DIRECT OR ACTUAL DAMAGES) ARISING OUT OF, IN CONNECTION WITH, OR AS RESULT OF, ANY CREDIT DOCUMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS, OR ANY ACT, OMISSION OR EVENT OCCURRING IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, AND EACH GROUP PARTY AND BANK HEREBY WAIVE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ALL SUCH CLAIMS, WHETHER OR NOT ACCRUED AND WHETHER OR NOT KNOWN OR SUSPECTED TO EXIST IN ITS FAVOUR.
