For every share issued or to be issued upon conversion of the debenture, Austral Gold will receive one warrant which is exercisable at a fix price within 5 years as from closing. For so long as AGD owns at least 5% of the outstanding shares of GRM: (i) it will have the right to appoint one member at GRM´s Board, one member of its Technical Committee and one non-voting observer to attend Board meetings, (ii) it will have anti-dilution rights enabling AGD to subscribe shares in future capital raisings or equity sales up to its pro rata share.
