RECITALS


On the date hereof, the Shareholders have entered into an agreement with Ding Lieping  (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) providing for the purchase and sale of a portion of their shares of common stock of TMGG and for the surrender of the balance of their shares of TMGG, thereby resulting in a change in control of TMGG.   

The Shareholders, who are current holders of common stock of TMGG, wish to have the option to acquire TMGG’s mining claims (the “Mining Claims,” as further defined below) upon the terms and conditions set forth herein at any time within the “Option Period” (as defined below).  TMGG is willing to grant such option to the Shareholders, and, in addition, TMGG wishes to have the right to require the Shareholders to accept a transfer of the Mining Claims from TMGG at any time within the Option Period.


NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed, by and among the parties hereto, as follows:

Upon receipt of such notice, TMGG shall be bound to transfer title to all of the Mining Claims, and the Shareholders shall be bound to accept such transfer of title, in exchange for a general release given by the Shareholders to TMGG of any and all liabilities and obligations of TMGG to the Shareholders, both individually and collectively, other than the Warrants issued to them pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement.  


3.

TMGG’s Option.  The Shareholders hereby grant to TMGG an irrevocable option to require the Shareholders to accept title to the Mining Claims (the “TMGG Option”) at any time during the Option Period.  TMGG may exercise the TMGG Option at any time during the Option Period by giving notice of exercise, in writing, to the Shareholders.  Upon receipt of such notice, the Shareholders shall be bound to accept, and TMGG shall be bound to transfer to the Shareholders, title to all of the Mining Claims in satisfaction of all liabilities and obligations of TMGG to the Shareholders.   Each of the Shareholders shall acknowledge such satisfaction of liabilities and obligations by executing and delivering to TMGG a general release.
