(iv) $1,200,000 additional over the 12 months following the execution of the Definitive Agreement for which proceeds are to be used towards accelerating production.


After the US$1.5 million expenditure, Colombia Crest will have earned a 30% interest in Machacala Project and a Joint Venture arrangement will be formed between Colombia Crest, Affinity Gold Corp and Corizona Mining Partners, LLC.
