(“U.S. Gold” or the “Company”) entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement (the “Assignment and Assumption Agreement”) with and among Orevada Metals, Inc., the Company’s indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary (“Orevada”), Nevada Gold Mines LLC (“NGM”), Orogen Royalties Inc. (“Orogen”) and Renaissance Exploration, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Orogen (“RenEx”) whereby Orevada assigned its interest in that certain Exploration Earn-In Agreement with RenEx, dated February 19, 2019 (the “Original Earn-In Agreement”), to NGM. Pursuant to the Original Earn-In Agreement, Orevada, by making certain payments and incurring certain exploration expenditures, had the right to earn at least a 50% interest and up to a 70% interest in the Maggie Creek Property, owned by RenEx, in Eureka County, Nevada. Simultaneous with this assignment, NGM and RenEx entered into an Amended and Restated Exploration Earn-In Agreement, pursuant to which NGM can earn a 100% interest in the Maggie Creek Property (the “NGM Option”).   As consideration for the assignment of the Original Earn-In Agreement to NGM, U.S. Gold received an upfront cash payment of $2.75 million dollars from NGM, and NGM agreed that if it exercises the NGM Option and acquires the Maggie Creek Property, it will grant to U.S. Gold a 0.5% Net Smelter Returns royalty on all gold and other recovered and saleable minerals from the Maggie Creek Property (the “U.S. Gold Royalty”), pursuant to a separate royalty agreement (the “U.S. Gold Royalty Agreement”) between NGM and U.S. Gold, the terms of which have been fully agreed as part of this assignment. Under the U.S. Gold Royalty Agreement, NGM will have the right to buy back one-half of the U.S. Gold Royalty (reducing the royalty to 0.25% of Net Smelter Returns) for a fixed price of $500,000. In addition, the U.S. Gold Royalty Agreement will provide that U.S. Gold waives the first $800,000 of production royalty payments owed to it, regardless of whether NGM exercises its buy-back rights. Under the U.S. Gold Royalty Agreement, NGM will also have a right of first refusal to purchase the U.S. Gold Royalty if U.S. Gold decides to sell that royalty.   The foregoing description of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement is not complete and subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the document, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.   Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.   On November 10, 2022, U.S. Gold issued a press release announcing its entry into the Assignment and Assumption Agreement.
