RE:  Letter of Intent regarding Two Future Mining Lease Agreements between APD Metals, Inc., a subsidiary to be formed by APD Antiquities, Inc., and Northern Adventures LLC.


Dear Mr. Clemets:

 

This letter sets forth the terms and conditions upon which APD Antiquities, Inc.  ("APD"), a Nevada corporation, through its subsidiary to be formed APD Metals, Inc. (APDM”) intends to acquire certain Lease Agreements from Northern Adventures, LLC. (“NA”), an Idaho Limited Liability Company, consisting of two mineral leases and the assignment of leases with other third parties.


This letter sets forth the terms and conditions upon which NA pursuant to a best efforts basis will assign all right, title and interest in leases from third parties and two mineral leases directly from NA related to two existing mining properties referred to as Quartz Creek and Monitor/Richmond, plus additional claims to be located and paid for by funds advanced by APD pursuant to this Letter of Intent.  The two groups of claims and additional claims to be located by NA or their agents are more specifically described in Exhibit A attached.  One of the considerations of NA agreeing to grant leases to APD is an agreement by APD to provide certain interim financial support to NA in the amount of up to $145,000, consisting of promissory note(s) for up to $95,000 on an as needed basis and $50,000 provided by APD will be allocated as an initial payment pertaining to the granting of standard leases related to the Quartz Creek group of claims and the Monitor/Richmond group of claims.  In addition, at the time the leases are executed between APD and NA, APD will issue 3,000,000 shares of restricted common stock to NA at a cost basis equal to $.001, the par value of the APD shares.


1.

APD represents and warrants that it currently has outstanding Four Million Four Hundred Thirty One Thousand One Hundred Eleven (4,431,111) shares of common stock as of the date of this Letter of Intent.  APD may have up to 8,432,111 shares issued pursuant to conversion of loans up to $200,000 which the company has secured and is currently seeking.  In addition to the 8,431,111 shares of common stock outstanding, there is the potential issuance of up to an additional 5,000,000 shares of restricted common stock, par value $.001, at $.10 per share.  APD is contemplating issuing additional shares to acquire up to 4-15 more properties and anticipate selling up to 10,000,000 additional shares as Phase II capital formation for $.25 pursuant to a Regulations D, Rule 506 exempt offering.


2.

APD agrees to furnish to NA the Audited Financial Statements of APD for the account period ending 12-31-2010, unaudited financial statements for the period ending 3-31-2011 and a copy of the most recent 10-K for 2010 at NA’s request, which financial statements will be in a form that satisfies the reporting requirements of SEC.  Such Unaudited Financial Statements shall be provided to NA before the date on which the definitive lease agreements are executed between NA and APDM.


3.

NA agrees to furnish to APD documentation related to the title and ownership of all claims previously

owned and recently located, including any existing leases with third parties or copies of assignments of interest pursuant to the Small Miners Exclusion Act.  All leases granted or transferred to APDM by NA will be free and clear of all liens and encumbrances.  As of this date, APD has no current liabilities, but APD expect to secure additional capital up to $200,000 by the issuance of convertible promissory notes.  The promissory notes will be convertible on the basis of 20 shares of restricted common stock for each dollar of principle and interest at the time of conversion.


4.

NA will require up to $95,000 of operating capital to secure additional leases, stake additional unpatented mining claims and cover other acquisition expenses.  APD agrees to loan ND up to $95,000 for a period of four months and pay $50,000 as the initial payment for Quartz Creek and Monitor/Richmond.  On or before the end of the four month period, this Letter of Intent will be replaced with two formal Lease Agreements pertaining to the two properties described in Exhibit A, plus other properties leased or controlled by ND.  At the time of execution of the two leases, any funds loaned or advanced to ND by APD will be forgiven and for accounting purposes be deemed to be a part of the acquisition cost.


5.

In the event APD makes a decision not to proceed with the proposed leasing of the subject properties, the loan made by APD to NA in the amount of $95,000 and the payment of $50,000 will be deemed to be liquidated damages.  If NA does not proceed with the proposed Lease Agreements on the subject properties, then it will agree to return the funds loaned by APD from a royalty of 2% gross income from production or 20% of any upfront payments made related to the two subject properties payable to APD from the properties defined in Exhibit A, up until the amount of royalty or percentage of the upfront payment equal the loans received by NA from APD.  This financial obligation will extend for a period of 7 years or until the loans are repaid in full, which every shall occur first.  APD will have no other interest in the said properties.


6.

From the date hereof through the date of the closing of the Agreement, APD agrees that it:


(a)

will continue its business only in ordinary course;


(b)

it will within 45 days form APD Metals, Inc. as a wholly owned subsidiary.
