SCHEDULE A

"THE PROPERTY"

THIS IS SCHEDULE "A" to the Mineral Property Acquisition Agreement made as of the 21stday of June, 2013.

5

SCHEDULE B

NSR

Effective as of the Closing Date, the Purchaser hereby grants in favour of the Vendor a one and one-half percent (1.5%) Net Returns (the “Royalty”) from any production on the Property (the “Royalty Interest”) calculated and payable in accordance with this Section.  At any time after the grant of the Royalty Interest, the Purchaser may at any time purchase one-half (^1/2) of the Royalty Interest or 0.75% Royalty Interest from the Vendor for One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000).

1.1

For purposes of this Agreement:

(a)

“Gross Value” shall mean the consideration actually received by the Purchaser from the sale or other disposition of Minerals for all and only such times as the average of the London Bullion Market, Morning Fix, spot prices for gold exceed $1000 per troy ounce, provided that where the Purchaser’s sale or disposition is based upon a contract for the sale of Minerals that fixes a selling price for metals on other than a market price of the product on the date of delivery to the purchaser (less deductions normally negotiated as a part of such contracts), specifically including without limitation, forward sales, futures trading or commodity options trading and any other price hedging, price protection and speculative arrangements not involving physical delivery of Minerals produced from ores mined from the Property, Minerals shall be deemed to have been sold only at the time that refined metal attributable to such Minerals is physically delivered by the Purchaser in satisfaction of such commitments. Gross Value of Minerals shall be based on the contained metal value of the Minerals actually delivered, calculated by dividing the sum of all such prices reported for each respective metal on each day of the calendar month by the number of days for which such prices were reported for the month in which the sale occurred, as such prices are quoted on the London Metal Exchange (LME) p.m. fix. The Royalty payable to the Vendor shall be based upon such Gross Value, net of the deductions more fully set forth below. In the event of cessation or suspension of quotations for a period of more than five (5) consecutive days in a given month, the parties hereto shall agree on a reputable substitute quotation mechanism for each affected metal. If the Purchaser terminates or “buys-back” any of such price protection arrangements without actual physical delivery of Minerals, the Vendor shall not share in any profits or losses therefrom;

(b)

“Minerals” shall mean raw ores, concentrates, precipitates, leach liquor, metals, ore and mineral materials of every kind and character and all other naturally-occurring products contained within the Property which are sold by the Purchaser to third parties (including sand and gravel and other common non-metallic materials); and

6

(c)

“Net Returns” shall mean the Gross Value received by the Purchaser from the sale or other disposition of Minerals, less the following expenses incurred by the Purchaser with respect to such Minerals after they leave the Property, as the case may be: (i) actual charges for treatment in the smelting and refining process (including handling, assaying, processing, penalties, impurity charges, metal losses and other processor deductions); (ii) actual sales, marketing and brokerage costs; (iii) any sales, severance, gross production, privilege or similar taxes assessed on or in connection with the sale or other disposition of Minerals; (iv) actual costs of transportation (including freight, insurance, security charges, transaction taxes, import and export duties, levies, imposts, handling, port, demurrage, delay, stowage and forwarding expenses incurred by reason of or in the course of such transportation) of such Minerals, to the mill, smelter or other purchaser, user or customer. The Purchaser shall be permitted to sell concentrates in the form usually commercially marketable to an affiliate of the Purchaser provided that such sales shall be considered, solely for the purpose of computing Net Returns, to have been sold at prices and on terms no less favourable than those which would be extended to an unaffiliated third party in a bona fide arm's length transaction under similar circumstances.  Similarly, if the Purchaser or an affiliate of the Purchaser incurs costs that are deductible or treats the Minerals in a smelter that the Purchaser or the affiliate of the Purchaser owns or controls, the Purchaser or the affiliate of the Purchaser may deduct treatment charges and costs, but only to the extent they are no more than the amount that the Purchaser or the affiliate of the Purchaser would have charged an unaffiliated third party in a bona fide arm's length transaction under similar circumstances.

SCHEDULE C

ELCORA OPTION

TORONTO, Oct. 4, 2012 /CNW/ - Mantis Mineral Corp ('Mantis'--CNSX 'MYN') has entered into an arm's length binding letter of intent with ELCORA RESOURCES CORP. (TSXV: ERA.P), (the "Company" or "Elcora"), dated October 3, 2012 (the "Letter of Intent") for the right to acquire a fifty-one percent (51%) undivided interest in the Cree Lake Gold Property located in Swayze Township, Ontario, (the "Transaction") consisting of 18 mining claims covering approximately 3904 hectares (the "Cree Lake Claims"), which claims are subject to a 1.5% net smelter return royalty on mining claim numbers 4203295, 4203275, 4203296, 4209811.

The Mantis occurrence represents a new gold discovery in the Swayze Belt.  Recent drilling intersected a volcanic-hosted, quartz stockwork system carrying significant gold values along substantial drill hole widths, which include a 15.5-meter interval averaging 2.05 g/t Au from hole CL09-6  (see Mantis press release September 9, 2009). The zone comes to surface and represents excellent open-pit potential for a gold deposit of the high tonnage, low-grade type.

Follow-up trenching conducted by Mantis immediately west of hole CL09-6 exposed a 50-meter length of intermittent quartz veining and shearing over a 10-meter width. Grab samples within this zone yielded significant gold values ranging from 0.61g/t to 43.2 g/t, with an average of 6.47 g/t.

The property also hosts the historical Flintrock showing, where one hole from the summer 2010 program intersected 24 g/t Au over one metre.

The property is situated along the Ridout deformation zone, a 130-kilometer long structure that hosts past producers such as the Jerome, Tyrranite and Kenty Mines, as well as numerous gold showings.  The area has received recent attention with the identification of thick intervals of gold mineralization by former Trelawney Mining on its Chester Gold Project, located approximately 60 kilometres southeast along strike in the Swayze Belt.

The Transaction

Under the terms of the Letter of Intent, Elcora has the exclusive right to earn up to a 51% undivided interest in the Cree Lake Claims by making cash payments, issuing common shares of Elcora and conducting work programs on the Cree Lake Claims.  Elcora may earn a 51% interest in the Cree Lake Claims by making cash payments totaling $50,000, issuing 3,000,000 common shares and completing work programs on the Cree Lake Claims with a total value of a minimum of $1,000,000 over a four year period.

8

The Company is a Capital Pool Company ("CPC") and intends the Transaction to constitute its Qualifying Transaction under the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange").  Following completion of the Transaction, the resulting issuer will be a Tier 2 mining exploration company.

The Exchange has in no way passed upon the merits of the proposed Transaction and has neither approved nor disapproved the contents of this press release.
