if it believes, acting in good faith, that the Acquisition Proposal could reasonably lead to a Superior Proposal, contact the Person(s) making such Acquisition Proposal and its advisors solely for the purpose of clarifying such Acquisition Proposal and any material terms thereof and the conditions thereto and likelihood of consummation so as to determine whether such proposal is, or is reasonably likely to lead to, a Superior Proposal; and

(ii)

if, in the opinion of the Goldrock Board, acting in good faith and after receiving advice from its outside financial advisors and outside legal counsel, the Acquisition Proposal constitutes or, if consummated in accordance with its terms (disregarding, for the purposes of any such determination, any term of such Acquisition Proposal that provides for a due diligence investigation), is reasonably likely to be or lead to a Superior Proposal, then, and only in such case, Goldrock may:

7.2

Notification of Acquisition Proposals

If Goldrock or any of the Goldrock Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives, receives or otherwise becomes aware of any inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes or may reasonably be expected to constitute or lead to an


	- 70 -

Acquisition Proposal, or any request for copies of, access to, or disclosure of, confidential information relating to Goldrock or any Goldrock Subsidiary, including but not limited to information, access, or disclosure relating to the properties, facilities, books or records of Goldrock or any Goldrock Subsidiary, Goldrock shall immediately notify Fortuna, at first orally, and then promptly and in any event within 24 hours in writing, of:

(a)

such Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, proposal, offer or request, including a description of its material terms and conditions, the identity of all Persons making the Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, proposal, offer or request, and copies of the Acquisition Proposal and all documents, correspondence or other material received in respect of, from or on behalf of any such Person; and

the status of developments and negotiations with respect to such Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, proposal, offer or request, including any changes, modifications or other amendments to any such Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, proposal, offer or request.

7.3

Right to Match

(a)

If Goldrock receives an Acquisition Proposal that constitutes a Superior Proposal prior to the approval of the Arrangement Resolution by the Goldrock Securityholders, the Goldrock Board may, subject to compliance with Section 8.3, enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Acquisition Proposal, if and only if:

(i)

the Person making the Superior Proposal was not restricted from making such Superior Proposal pursuant to an existing standstill or similar restriction;

(ii)

Goldrock has been, and continues to be, in compliance with its obligations under this Article 7;

(iii)

Goldrock has delivered to Fortuna a written notice of the determination of the Goldrock Board that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal and of the intention of the Goldrock Board to enter into such definitive agreement, together with a written notice from the Board regarding the value and financial terms that the Goldrock Board, in consultation with its financial advisors, has determined should be ascribed to any non-cash consideration offered under such Acquisition Proposal (the "Superior Proposal Notice");

(iv)

Goldrock has provided Fortuna with a copy of the proposed definitive agreement for the Superior Proposal, together with a summary of the factors used by the Goldrock Board to conclude it is a Superior Proposal, and in the case of a proposal that includes non-cash consideration, the value or range of values attributed by the Goldrock Board, in good faith, to such non-cash consideration, after consultation with its financial advisers;


	- 71 -

(v)

at least six (6) calendar days (the "Matching Period") have elapsed from the date that is the later of the date on which Fortuna received the Superior Proposal Notice and a copy of the proposed definitive agreement for the Superior Proposal from Goldrock;

(vi)

during any Matching Period, Fortuna has had the opportunity (but not the obligation), in accordance with Section 7.3(b), to offer to amend this Agreement and the Arrangement in order for such Acquisition Proposal to cease to be a Superior Proposal;

(vii)

if Fortuna has offered to amend this Agreement and the Arrangement under Section 7.3(b), the Goldrock Board has determined in good faith, after consultation with Goldrock's outside legal counsel and financial advisers, that such Acquisition Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal compared to the terms of the Arrangement as proposed to be amended by Fortuna under Section 7.3(b);

(viii)

the Goldrock Board has determined in good faith, after consultation with Goldrock's outside legal counsel that it is necessary for the Board to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal in order to properly discharge its fiduciary duties; and

(ix)

prior to entering into such definitive agreement Goldrock terminates this Agreement pursuant to Subsection 8.2(a)(iv)(B) and pays the Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.3.

(b)

During the Matching Period, or such longer period as Goldrock may approve in writing for such purpose: (a) the Goldrock Board shall review any offer made by Fortuna under Section 7.3(b) to amend the terms of this Agreement and the Arrangement in good faith in order to determine whether such proposal would, upon acceptance, result in the Acquisition Proposal previously constituting a Superior Proposal ceasing to be a Superior Proposal; and (b) Goldrock shall negotiate in good faith with Fortuna to make such amendments to the terms of this Agreement and the Arrangement as would enable Fortuna to proceed with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement on such amended terms. If the Goldrock Board determines that such Acquisition Proposal would cease to be a Superior Proposal, Goldrock shall promptly so advise Fortuna and Goldrock and Fortuna shall amend this Agreement to reflect such offer made by Fortuna, and shall take and cause to be taken all such actions as are necessary to give effect to the foregoing.

(c)

Each successive amendment to any Acquisition Proposal shall constitute a new Acquisition Proposal for the purposes of this Section 7.3, and Fortuna shall be afforded a new six (6) calendar day Matching Period from the later of the date on which Fortuna received the Superior Proposal Notice and a copy of the proposed definitive agreement for the new Superior Proposal from Goldrock.

(d)

If Goldrock provides a Superior Proposal Notice to Fortuna after a date that is less than 10 Business Days before the date of the Goldrock Meeting, Goldrock

(a)

each Goldrock Share held by a Dissenting Shareholder in respect of which the Goldrock Shareholder has validly exercised his, her or its Dissent Right shall be deemed to be directly transferred and assigned by such Dissenting Shareholder to Goldrock (free and clear of any Liens) and cancelled, in accordance with, and for the consideration set forth in, Article 4 hereof;

(b)

each Goldrock Share (other than any Goldrock Shares held by any Dissenting Shareholder) shall be deemed to be transferred and assigned to Fortuna (free and clear of any Liens) in exchange for 0.1331 of a Fortuna Share;

(c)

with respect to each Goldrock Share transferred and assigned to Fortuna in accordance with Section 3.1(a) or Section 3.1(b) hereof:

3.3

No Fractional Fortuna Shares

In no event shall any Former Goldrock Shareholder be entitled to a fractional Fortuna Share.

(ii)

are ultimately not entitled, for any reason, to be paid fair value for their Goldrock Shares shall be deemed to have participated in the Arrangement, as of the Effective Time, on the same basis as a non-dissenting holder of Goldrock Shares that exchanges its Goldrock Shares for Fortuna Shares as contemplated in Section 3.1(b) and shall be entitled to receive only the Share Consideration contemplated in Section 3.1(b) hereof that such holder would have received pursuant to the Arrangement if such holder had not exercised Dissent Rights.

5.1

Delivery of Fortuna Shares

(a)

Fortuna will, following receipt by Goldrock of the Final Order and prior to the Effective Date, deposit or cause to be deposited with the Depositary certificates or DRS Statements representing that number of Fortuna Shares required to be issued to Goldrock Shareholders pursuant to Section 3.1(b) (calculated with reference to the number of Goldrock Shares in respect of which Dissenters have exercised, but not withdrawn Dissent Rights).

(b)

Upon surrender to the Depository for cancellation of a certificate or DRS Statement that immediately before the Effective Time represented one or more


	A-7

outstanding Goldrock Shares together with such other documents and instruments as would have been required to effect the transfer of the Goldrock Shares formerly represented by such certificate or DRS Statement under the BCBCA and the articles of Goldrock and such additional documents and instruments as the Depository may reasonably require, the holder of such surrendered certificate or DRS Statement shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, and the Depository shall deliver to such holder following the Effective Time, a DRS Statement representing the Fortuna Shares that such holder is entitled to receive in accordance with Section 3.1(b).

(c)

After the Effective Time and until surrendered for cancellation as contemplated by Section 5.1(b)5.1(a) hereof, each certificate or DRS Statement that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented one or more Goldrock Shares shall be deemed at all times to represent only the right to receive in exchange therefor the Share Consideration that the holder of such certificate or DRS Statement is entitled to receive in accordance with Section 3.1 hereof.

5.2

Lost Certificates

If any certificate, that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented one or more outstanding Goldrock Shares that were exchanged for the Share Consideration in accordance with Section 3.1 hereof, shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder claiming such certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Depositary shall deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the Share Consideration that such holder is entitled to receive in accordance with Section 3.1 hereof. When authorizing such delivery of Share Consideration that such holder is entitled to receive in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the holder to whom such Share Consideration is to be delivered shall, as a condition precedent to the delivery of such Share Consideration, give a bond satisfactory to Fortuna and the Depositary in such amount as Fortuna and the Depositary may direct, or otherwise indemnify Fortuna and the Depositary in a manner satisfactory to Fortuna and the Depositary, against any Claim that may be made against Fortuna or the Depositary with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed and shall otherwise take such actions as may be required by the articles of Goldrock.

5.3

Distributions with Respect to Unsurrendered Certificates

No dividend or other distribution declared or made after the Effective Time with respect to Fortuna Shares with a record date after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the holder of any unsurrendered certificate that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented outstanding Goldrock Shares unless and until the holder of such certificate shall have complied with the provisions of Section 5.1 or Section 5.2 hereof. Subject to applicable Law and to Section 5.4 hereof, at the time of such compliance, there shall, in addition to the delivery of Share Consideration to which such holder is thereby entitled, be delivered to such holder, without interest, the amount of the dividend or other distribution with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such Fortuna Shares.


	A-8

5.4

Withholding Rights

Fortuna, Goldrock and the Depository shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from all dividends or other distributions or payments otherwise payable or allocable to any Former Goldrock Shareholder, Dissenting Shareholder or other person, other than the payment to a Former Goldrock Shareholder pursuant to Section 3.1(b) hereof (an "Affected Person") such amounts as Fortuna, Goldrock or the Depository is required or permitted to deduct and withhold with respect to such payment or allocation under the Tax Act or any provision of any applicable federal, provincial, state, local or foreign tax law or treaty, in each case, as amended ("Withholding Obligations"). To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes hereof as having been paid to the Affected Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made, provided that such withheld amounts are actually remitted to the appropriate taxing authority. Fortuna, Goldrock and the Depository shall also have the right to:

(a)

withhold and sell, on their own account or through a broker (the "Broker"), and on behalf of any Affected Person; or

(b)

require the Affected Person to irrevocably direct the sale through a Broker and irrevocably direct the Broker pay the proceeds of such sale to Goldrock, the Depositary or Fortuna as appropriate (and, in the absence of such irrevocable direction, the Affected Person shall be deemed to have provided such irrevocable direction);

such number of Fortuna Shares delivered or deliverable to such Affected Person pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement as is necessary to produce sale proceeds (after deducting commissions payable to the Broker and other costs and expenses) sufficient to fund any Withholding Obligations. Any such sale of Fortuna Shares shall be affected on a public market and as soon as practicable following the Effective Date. None of Fortuna, Goldrock, the Depository or the Broker will be liable for any loss arising out of any sale of such Fortuna Shares, including any loss relating to the manner or timing of such sales, the prices at which the Fortuna Shares are sold or otherwise.

5.5

Limitation and Proscription

To the extent that a Former Goldrock Shareholder shall not have complied with the provisions of Section 5.1 or Section 5.2 hereof on or before the date that is six (6) years after the Effective Date (the "final proscription date"), then the Share Consideration that such Former Goldrock Shareholder was entitled to receive shall be automatically cancelled without any repayment of capital in respect thereof and the Share Consideration to which such Former Goldrock Shareholder was entitled, shall be delivered to Fortuna by the Depositary and the Fortuna Shares forming part of the Share Consideration shall be deemed to be cancelled, and the interest of the Former Goldrock Shareholder in such Fortuna Shares (and any dividend or other distribution referred to in Section 5.3 hereof) to which it was entitled shall be terminated as of such final proscription date.


	A-9

5.6

No Liens

Any exchange or transfer of securities pursuant to this Plan of Arrangement shall be free and clear of any Liens of any kind.

5.7

Illegality of Delivery of Fortuna Shares

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if it appears to Fortuna that it would be contrary to applicable law to issue Fortuna Shares pursuant to the Arrangement to a person that is not a resident of Canada or the United States, the Fortuna Shares that otherwise would be issued to that person will be issued and delivered to the Depositary for the sale by the Depositary on behalf of that person. The Fortuna Shares delivered to the Depositary will be pooled and sold as soon as practicable after the Effective Date, on such dates and at such prices as the Depositary determines in its sole discretion. The Depositary shall not be obliged to seek or obtain a minimum price for any of the Fortuna Shares sold by it. Each such person will receive a pro rata share of the cash proceeds from the sale of the Fortuna Shares by the Depositary (less commissions and other reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the sale and any amount withheld in respect of Canadian taxes) in lieu of the Fortuna Shares. The net proceeds will be remitted in the same manner as set forth in this Article 5. None of Fortuna, Goldrock or the Depositary will be liable for any loss arising out of any such sales.

5.8

From and after the Effective Time: (i) this Plan of Arrangement shall take precedence and priority over any and all Goldrock Shares issued prior to the Effective Time; (ii) the rights and obligations of the registered holders of Goldrock Shares and Goldrock, Fortuna, the Depository and any transfer agent or other depositary in relation thereto, shall be solely as provided for in this Plan of Arrangement; and (iii) all actions, causes of action, claims or proceedings (actual or contingent and whether or not previously asserted) based on or in any way relating to any Goldrock Shares shall be deemed to have been settled, compromised, released and determined without liability except as set forth herein.
