The Company agrees that concurrently with executing this Agreement and as a term thereof, it will make available a credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) to the Acquiror for an amount of $4,250,000 which will be advanced on execution of this Agreement. The Credit Facility will be secured by a customary general security agreement signed by the Acquiror (but not any subsidiaries), bear interest at 15% per annum with interest for a 6-month period accrued in advance conditional on the Arrangement completing, and will be deemed to be included in the amount of the loan that must be repaid after completion of the Arrangement. The loan shall have a minimum term of 12 months unless the Arrangement terminates without consummation as provided below.

The Credit Facility will be repayable on demand made by the Company anytime after 30 days from the date of termination of this Agreement if it terminates without the Arrangement completing due to a breach of this Agreement by the Acquiror and 180 days from termination of the Arrangement if the cause is Securityholders not voting in favour of the Arrangement or the Acquiror terminating because of the Company’s breach.

The Company shall concurrently with the first advance under the Credit Facility described in Section 5.7 pay Fiore a transaction fee of $280,000 (the “Fiore Fee”). Fiore may use the fee to purchase Acquiror Shares at the WAP on or before September 9, 2015.

5.9 Minimum Closing Working Capital

The Company must have minimum adjusted closing net working capital (“Minimum Closing Working Capital”) of not less than $4,700,000 on the Effective Date. Minimum Closing Working Capital means cash on hand, the Credit Facility to the Acquiror made under Section 5.7 but excluding any prepaid interest, less all accrued liabilities for operating and other costs after the date hereof (other than the costs incurred by the Company in connection with the Arrangement (legal, printing, mailing and regulatory not to exceed $125,000) and the Fiore Fee). To the extent the Company working capital is less than Minimum Closing Working Capital on the Effective Date, the Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted downwards by multiplying the Exchange Ratio by the number which is the actual closing working capital calculated as per above divided by $4,700,000.

(a) Notwithstanding Section 7.1(a) or any other provision of this Agreement, if at any time following the date of this Agreement and prior to the Meeting the Company receives a bona fide written Alternative Proposal (that was not solicited, assisted, initiated, encouraged or facilitated in contravention of Section 4 of the Letter of Intent or, after the date hereof, in contravention of Section 7.1(a)), the Company and its Representatives may:

	(i)	contact the person making such Alternative Proposal and its Representatives solely for the purpose of clarifying the terms and conditions of such Alternative Proposal and the likelihood of its consummation so as to determine whether such Alternative Proposal is, or is reasonably likely to lead to, a Superior Proposal; and

	(ii)	if the Board determines, after consultation with its legal counsel and financial advisors, that such Alternative Proposal is, or is reasonably likely to lead to, a Superior Proposal and that the failure to take the relevant action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties:

	(A)	furnish information with respect to the Company to the person making such Alternative Proposal and its Representatives only if such person has entered into a confidentiality and standstill agreement that contains provisions that are not less favourable to the Company than those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement (except that it shall permit the disclosure to the Acquiror required by this Section 7.3(a)(ii)(A)), provided that the Company sends a copy of such confidentiality and standstill agreement to the Acquiror promptly following its execution and the Acquiror is promptly provided with a list of, and access to (to the extent not previously provided to the Acquiror), the information provided to such person; and

	(B)	engage in discussions and negotiations with the person making such Alternative Proposal and its Representatives, provided that all such discussions and negotiations shall cease during the Match Period.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 7.1(a) or any other provision of this Agreement, the Company may at any time prior to the Meeting (x) enter into an agreement (other than a confidentiality and standstill agreement contemplated by Section 7.3(a)(ii)(A)) with respect to an Alternative Proposal that is a Superior Proposal and/or (y) withdraw, modify or qualify its approval or recommendation of the Arrangement and recommend or approve an Alternative Proposal that is a Superior Proposal, provided:

- 34 -

	(i)	the Company shall have complied with its obligations under this Article 7;

	(ii)	the Board has determined, after consultation with its legal counsel and financial advisors, that such Alternative Proposal is a Superior Proposal and that the failure to take the relevant action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties;

	(iii)	the Company has delivered written notice to the Acquiror (A) of the determination of the Board that the Alternative Proposal is a Superior Proposal, (B) of the intention of the Board to approve or recommend such Superior Proposal and/or of the Company to enter into an agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal, together with a copy of such agreement executed by the person making such Superior Proposal that is capable of acceptance by the Company, and (C) providing a summary of the valuation analysis attributed by the Board in good faith to any non-cash consideration included in such Alternative Proposal after consultation with its financial advisors (the “Superior Proposal Notice”);

	(iv)	at least five Business Days have elapsed since the date the Superior Proposal Notice was received by the Acquiror, which five Business Day period is referred to as the “Match Period” (for greater certainty, the Match Period shall expire at 5:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on the fifth Business Day following day that the Superior Proposal Notice was delivered to the Acquiror);

	(v)	if the Acquiror has offered to amend the terms of the Arrangement and this Agreement during the Match Period pursuant to Section 7.3(c), such Alternative Proposal continues to be a Superior Proposal compared to the amendment to the terms of the Arrangement and this Agreement offered by the Acquiror at the termination of the Match Period; and

	(vi)	the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.2(h) and the Company has previously paid or, concurrently with termination pays, the Termination Payment to the Acquiror.

(c) During the Match Period, the Acquiror shall have the opportunity, but not the obligation, to offer to amend the terms of the Arrangement and this Agreement and the Company shall cooperate with the Acquiror with respect thereto, including negotiating in good faith with the Acquiror to enable the Acquiror to make such amendments to the Arrangement and this Agreement as the Acquiror deems appropriate as would enable the Acquiror to proceed with the Arrangement on such adjusted provisions. The Board shall review any such offer by the Acquiror to amend the terms of the Arrangement and this Agreement in order to determine, in the good faith exercise of its fiduciary duties, whether the Acquiror's offer to amend the Arrangement and this Agreement, upon its acceptance, would result in the Alternative Proposal ceasing to be a Superior Proposal compared to the amendment to the terms of the Arrangement and this Agreement offered by the Acquiror. If the Board determines that the Alternative Proposal would cease to be a Superior Proposal, the Acquiror shall amend the Arrangement and the Company and the Acquiror shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement reflecting the offer by the Acquiror to amend the terms of the Arrangement and this Agreement.

- 35 -

(d) The Board shall promptly reaffirm its recommendation of the Arrangement by press release after: (i) any Alternative Proposal (which is determined not to be a Superior Proposal) is publicly announced or made; (ii) the Board determines that a proposed amendment to the terms of the Arrangement and this Agreement would result in the Alternative Proposal not being a Superior Proposal, and the Acquiror has so amended the terms of the Arrangement; or (iii) the written request of the Acquiror. The Acquiror shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the form and content of any such press release and the Company shall consider in good faith any comments made by the Acquiror.

(e) Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the Board from: (i) responding through a directors' circular or otherwise as required by applicable Law to an Alternative Proposal that it determines is not a Superior Proposal; (ii) complying with any requirement to hold a meeting of shareholders of the Company requisitioned under the BCBCA; or (iii) taking all actions as may be mandated by a court or Regulatory Authority having jurisdiction. The Acquiror shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the form and content of any such response prior to its printing, publication or announcement and the Company shall in good faith consider incorporating therein all reasonable comments made by the Acquiror.

(f) Each successive material modification of any Alternative Proposal shall constitute a new Alternative Proposal for purposes of Section 7.3(b) .

Where a Termination Payment Event occurs or where the Company Expense Reimbursement Amount becomes payable, such payment of the Termination Payment or the Company Expense Reimbursement Amount, as the case may be, to be received pursuant to Section 9.3 is the sole remedy in compensation or damages of a party in respect to the event or events giving rise to the termination of this Agreement and the resulting Termination Payment Event or requirement to pay the Company Expense Reimbursement Amount; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 9.4, and no payment of any Termination Payment or Company Expense Reimbursement Amount, shall relieve or have the effect of relieving any party in any way from liability for damages incurred or suffered by a party as a result of a breach of this Agreement or as a result of any representation or warranty of the other party set out in this Agreement being materially untrue or incomplete. In the event of termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.2, this Agreement shall be of no further force and effect, except that Section 9.3, this Section 9.4 and Article 10 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

9.5 Remedies

Subject to Section 9.4, the parties acknowledge and agree that an award of money damages would be inadequate for any breach of this Agreement by any party or its Representatives and any such breach would cause the non-breaching party irreparable harm. Accordingly, the parties agree that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement by one of the parties, the non-breaching Party shall also be entitled, without the requirement of posting a bond or other security, to equitable relief, including injunctive relief and specific performance and the parties shall not object to the granting of injunctive or other equitable relief on the basis that there exists an adequate remedy at Law. Such remedies shall not be the exclusive remedies for any breach of this Agreement but shall be in addition to all other remedies available at Law or equity to each of the parties.

ARTICLE 2
THE ARRANGEMENT

2.1 Arrangement Agreement

This Plan of Arrangement is made pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement and forms a part of the Arrangement Agreement. If there is any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of the Plan of Arrangement and the provisions of the Arrangement Agreement regarding the Arrangement, the provisions of the Plan of Arrangement shall govern.

2.2 Binding Effect

This Plan of Arrangement will become effective at the Effective Time and shall be binding upon the Acquiror, the Company and the Securityholders (including the Dissenting Shareholders).

2.3 Arrangement

Commencing at the Effective Time, the following shall occur and shall be deemed to occur in the following sequence, except where noted, without any further act or formality of or by the Company, the Acquiror or any other person:

(a) each Common Share held by a Dissenting Shareholder shall be irrevocably transferred to the Acquiror (free and clear of all Encumbrances) without any further act or formality and:

	(i)	such Dissenting Shareholder shall cease to be the holder of such Common Shares so transferred and to have any rights as holder of such Common Shares other than the right to be paid fair value for such Common Shares by the Acquiror as set out in Section 3.1;

	(ii)	such Dissenting Shareholder's name shall be removed as the holder of such Common Shares from the central securities register of holders of Common Shares maintained by or on behalf of the Company; and

	(iii)	the Acquiror shall become the sole legal and beneficial holder of such Common Shares so transferred (free and clear of all Encumbrances) and shall be entered in the central securities register of holders of Common Shares maintained by or on behalf of the Company; and

(b) concurrently with the step described in Section 2.3(a), each Common Share (other than those held by Dissenting Shareholders or the Acquiror) shall be irrevocably transferred to the Acquiror (free and clear of all Encumbrances), and the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive from the Acquiror the Transaction Consideration for such Common Share and upon the transfer of each such Common Share from such holder to the Acquiror pursuant to this Section 2.3(b):

	(i)	each such holder shall cease to be a holder of the Common Shares so transferred and cease to have any rights as a holder of such Common Shares other than the right to be paid the Transaction Consideration for such Common Shares and the name of such holder shall be removed as the holder of such Common Shares from the central securities register of holders of Common Shares maintained by or on behalf of the Company; and

	(ii)	the Acquiror shall become the sole legal and beneficial holder of the Common Shares so transferred (free and clear of all Encumbrances) and shall be entered in the central securities register of holders of Common Shares maintained by or on behalf of the Company.

Each holder of each Common Share, with respect to each step set out above applicable to such holder, shall be deemed, at the time such step occurs, to have executed and delivered all consents, releases, assignments and waivers, statutory or otherwise, required to transfer such Common Share in accordance with such step.

	(c)	each holder of an Option which is outstanding and has not been duly exercised prior to the Effective Time, shall receive (and such holder shall accept), upon the exercise of such holder’s Option, in lieu of each Common Share to which such holder was theretofore entitled upon such exercise and for the same aggregate consideration payable therefore, the number of Acquiror Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio multiplied by the number of Common Shares subject to such Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, provided that if the foregoing would result in the issuance of a fraction of a Acquiror Share on any particular exercise of such Option, then the number of Acquiror Shares otherwise issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number of Acquiror Shares if such fraction is 0.5 or less and shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number if such fraction is greater than 0.5. Such Option shall otherwise continue to be governed by and subject to its terms. The Options granted to charities, Fiore and any Optionholders who will be continuing as directors of the Acquiror outstanding on the Effective Date shall continue in effect on the same terms and conditions (subject to adjustments required after giving effect to the Arrangement including, without limitation, that such Options shall be exercisable for Acquiror Shares). All other Options shall continue in effect on the same terms and conditions (subject to adjustments required after giving effect to the Arrangement including, without limitation, that such Options shall be exercisable for Acquiror Shares) but shall expire ninety (90) days after the Effective Date without any other cost or obligation to the Acquiror.

	(d)	each holder of a Warrant which is outstanding and has not been duly exercised prior to the Effective Time, shall receive (and such holder shall accept), upon the exercise of such holder’s Warrant, in lieu of each Common Share to which such holder was theretofore entitled upon such exercise and for the same aggregate consideration payable therefore, the number of Acquiror Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio multiplied by the number of Common Shares subject to such Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time, provided that if the foregoing would result in the issuance of a fraction of a Acquiror Share on any particular exercise of such Warrant, then the number of Common Shares otherwise issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number of Common Shares if such fraction is 0.5 or less and shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number if such fraction is greater than 0.5. Such Warrant shall otherwise continue to be governed by and subject to its terms. All Warrants shall continue in effect on the same terms and conditions (subject to adjustments required after giving effect to the Arrangement including, without limitation, that such Warrants shall be exercisable for Acquiror Shares).

2.4 No Fractional Shares

Following the Effective Time, if the aggregate number of Acquiror Shares to which a former holder of Common Shares would otherwise be entitled would include a fractional share, then the number of Acquiror Shares that such former holder of Common Shares is entitled to receive shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number if such fraction is 0.5 or less and shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number if such fraction is greater than 0.5.

ARTICLE 3
RIGHTS OF DISSENT

3.1 Rights of Dissent

Each registered Shareholder may exercise rights of dissent (“Dissent Rights”) pursuant to and in the manner set forth under Division 2 of Part 8 of the BCBCA, the Interim Order and this Section 3.1 in connection with the Arrangement, provided that the written objection to the Arrangement Resolution contemplated by Section 242 of the BCBCA must be sent to and received by the Company at least two days before the Meeting. Shareholders who duly exercise such Dissent Rights and who:

(a) are ultimately determined to be entitled to be paid fair value by the Acquiror for the Common Shares in respect of which they have validly exercised Dissent Rights will be deemed to have irrevocably transferred such Common Shares to the Acquiror (free and clear of all Encumbrances) pursuant to Section 2.3(a); or

(b) are ultimately not entitled, for any reason, to be paid fair value by the Acquiror for the Common Shares in respect of which they have exercised Dissent Rights, will be deemed to have participated in the Arrangement on the same basis as a holder of Common Shares to which Section 2.3(b) applies;

but in no case will the Company, the Acquiror or any other person, including the Depositary, be required to recognize any Dissenting Shareholder as a holder of Common Shares after the completion of the steps set out in Section 2.3(a) and each Dissenting Shareholder will cease to be entitled to the rights of a Shareholder in respect of the Common Shares in relation to which such Dissenting Shareholder has exercised Dissent Rights and the names of each Dissenting Shareholder will be removed from the central securities register of the Company as at such time.

For greater certainty, and in addition to any other restriction under Section 242 of the BCBCA, neither:

	(i)	Optionholders; nor

	(ii)	Warrantholders; nor

	(iii)	Shareholders who vote, or who have instructed a proxyholder to vote, in favour of the Arrangement Resolution;

shall be entitled to exercise Dissent Rights.

ARTICLE 4
CERTIFICATES AND PAYMENTS

4.1 Payment of Consideration

(a) At or before the Effective Time, the Acquiror will deposit or cause to be deposited with the Depositary Acquiror Shares in the aggregate amount sufficient to satisfy the payment obligations contemplated by Section 2.3(b) for all Shareholders (calculated without reference to whether any Shareholders have exercised Dissent Rights). Such amount will be held for the purpose of satisfying such obligations.

(b) As soon as practicable following the later of the Effective Time and the delivery to the Depositary by or on behalf of a former holder of Common Shares of a duly completed Letter of Transmittal and such additional documents and instruments as the Depositary may reasonably require including a certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented the outstanding Common Shares that were transferred under Section 2.3(b) and such other documents and instruments as would have been required to effect such transfer under the BCBCA and the articles of the Company after giving effect to Sections 2.3(b), the former holder of such Common Shares will be entitled to receive the Transaction Consideration which such former holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.3(b), less any amounts withheld pursuant to Section 4.5.

(c) From and after the Effective Time, each certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented Common Shares will be deemed after the time described in Section 2.3(b) to represent only the right to receive from the Depositary upon such surrender of the applicable Transaction Consideration in lieu of such certificate as contemplated in Section 4.1(b), or in the case of Dissenting Shareholders who are ultimately determined to be entitled to be paid fair value by the Acquiror for the Common Shares in respect of which they have validly exercised Dissent Rights, the fair value of their Common Shares, less, in each case, any amounts withheld pursuant to Section 4.5.

(d) Subject to Section 4.3, the Company and the Acquiror will cause the Depositary, as soon as practicable following the later of the Effective Time and the date of deposit by any former holder of Common Shares of the documentation required pursuant to Section 4.1(b), to:

	(i)	deliver or cause to be delivered to such former holder of Common Shares at the address specified in the Letter of Transmittal;

	(ii)	if requested by such former holder of Common Shares in the Letter of Transmittal, make available at the offices of the Depositary specified in the Letter of Transmittal for pick-up by such former holder of Common Shares; or

	(iii)	if the Letter of Transmittal neither specifies an address as described in Section 4.1(d)(i) nor contains a request as described in Section 4.1(d)(ii), deliver or cause to be delivered to such former holder of Common Shares at the address of such former holder as shown on the securities register of the Company maintained by or on behalf of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time;

a certificate representing the Acquiror Shares to which such former holder of Common Shares is entitled to in accordance with the provisions hereof, less any amounts withheld pursuant to Section 4.5.

4.2 Lost Certificates

In the event any certificate, which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented any outstanding Common Shares that were acquired by the Acquiror or the Company pursuant to Section 2.3, has been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the former holder of such Common Shares claiming such certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Depositary will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the Transaction Consideration to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.3. When authorizing such payment in exchange for any lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the former holder of such Common Shares may be required, upon request, as a condition precedent to the delivery thereof, to give a bond satisfactory to the Depositary, the Acquiror and the Company in such sum as the Acquiror may direct or otherwise indemnify the Acquiror and the Company in a manner satisfactory to the Acquiror and the Company against any claim that may be made against the Acquiror or the Company with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

4.3 Extinction of Rights

If any former holder of Common Shares fails to deliver to the Depositary the certificates, documents or instruments required to be delivered to the Depositary under Section 4.1 or Section 4.2 in order for such former holder to receive the Transaction Consideration which such former holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.3 on or before the date which is six years after the Effective Date (the “Final Proscription Date”), then:

(a) the Acquiror Shares which such former holder was entitled to receive shall be automatically transferred to the Acquiror and the certificates representing such Acquiror Shares shall be delivered to Acquiror by the Depositary for cancellation, and the interest of the former holder in such Acquiror Shares to which it was entitled shall be terminated as of the Final Proscription Date; and

(b) any certificate representing Common Shares formerly held by such former holder will cease to represent a claim of any nature whatsoever and will be deemed to have been surrendered to the Acquiror and will be cancelled. Neither the Company nor the Acquiror, or any of their respective successors, will be liable to any person in respect of any Acquiror Shares (including any Acquiror Shares previously held by the Depositary in trust for any such former holder) which is forfeited to the Acquiror or delivered to any public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

4.4 Dividends or Other Distributions

No dividends or distributions declared or made after the Effective Date with respect to Acquiror Shares with a record date after the Effective Date will be payable or paid to the holder of any unsurrendered certificate or certificates which, immediately prior to the Effective Date, represented outstanding Common Shares unless and until the holder of such certificate shall have complied with the provisions of this Article 4. Subject to applicable Law and to Article 4 hereof, at the time of such compliance, there shall, in addition to the delivery of a certificate representing the Acquiror Shares to which such holder is thereby entitled, be delivered to such holder, without interest, the amount of the dividend or other distribution with a record date after the Effective Date theretofore paid with respect to such Acquiror Shares.

4.5 Withholding Rights

The Acquiror, the Company and the Depositary shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration, dividend or other distribution otherwise payable to any person hereunder or under the Arrangement Agreement such amounts as the Acquiror, the Company or the Depositary determines, acting reasonably, are required or permitted to be deducted and withheld with respect to such payment under Canadian or United States tax laws or any other applicable Law. To the extent that the withheld amount may be reduced, the Acquiror, the Company and the Depositary, as the case may be, acting reasonably, shall withhold on such lower amount. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement or the Arrangement Agreement as having been paid to the person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made, provided that such withheld amounts are actually remitted to the appropriate Regulatory Authority.

13.2	The acceptance by the Lender of any further security or of any payment of or on account of any of the Borrower’s Indebtedness after a default or of any payment on account of any past default will not be construed to be a waiver of any right in respect of any future default or of any past default not completely cured thereby; and the Lender may, in its uncontrolled discretion, exercise any and all rights, powers, remedies and recourses available to it in accordance with this Agreement and the General Security Agreement concurrently or individually without the necessity of any election.

14.3	All covenants and other agreements in this Agreement contained by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto will bind and enure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto (including, without limitation, any transferee) whether so expressed or not; provided, however, that neither party may assign or transfer its respective rights or obligations hereunder to any Person without the other party’s prior written consent.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Re: Cannon Point Resources Ltd. (“Cannon Point”)

Northern Dynasty Minerals Ltd. (“Northern Dynasty”) and Cannon Point have entered into an agreement (the “Arrangement Agreement”) dated August 31, 2015, pursuant to which Northern Dynasty will acquire all of the issued and outstanding securities of Cannon Point (the “Arrangement”). Capitalized terms used herein but which are not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Arrangement Agreement.

The undersigned (the “Shareholder”) is the beneficial owner of that number of Cannon Point common shares (the “Cannon Point Shares”), Cannon Point stock options and Cannon Point warrants (collectively, the “Cannon Point Subject Securities”) set forth on the Shareholder’s signature page attached to this agreement (the “Agreement”) and has agreed to enter into this Agreement in connection with the Arrangement. For greater certainty, the term “Cannon Point Subject Securities” shall include:

	(i)	all of the Cannon Point Shares that may become beneficially owned, or in respect of which the voting may become, directly or indirectly, controlled or directed by, the Shareholder after the date hereof and prior to the Meeting, including all of the Cannon Point Shares issued upon the conversion, exchange or exercise of any securities of Cannon Point convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable to Cannon Point Shares held by the Shareholder or which may otherwise be acquired by the Shareholder after the date hereof and prior to the Meeting; and

	(ii)	all of the Cannon Point Shares or other securities for which the Cannon Point Subject Securities may be exchanged, received or into which the Cannon Point Subject Securities may be converted or otherwise changed pursuant to any stock split, stock consolidation, merger, reorganization, recapitalization, amalgamation, plan of arrangement or other business combination involving Cannon Point prior to the Meeting.

NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Northern Dynasty and the Shareholder (collectively, the “Parties”) agree as follows:

1.	Agreement to Vote Cannon Point Subject Securities

	(a)	The Shareholder hereby covenants, undertakes and agrees that it shall:

		(i)	vote (or cause to be voted) all of the Cannon Point Subject Securities (to the extent that such Cannon Point Subject Securities are entitled to a vote in respect of such matters):

	(A)	in favour of the approval, consent, ratification and adoption of the resolution approving the Arrangement (the “Arrangement Resolution”), and the Arrangement Agreement (and any actions required in furtherance thereof), including as required by the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”) and pursuant to the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia), and at every meeting of the securityholders of Cannon Point at which such matters are considered and at every adjournment or postponement thereof, and not withdraw any proxies or change its vote in respect thereof; and

	(B)	against any resolution proposed by Cannon Point or any other person that could adversely affect or reduce the likelihood of the successful completion of the Arrangement or delay or interfere with, the completion of the Arrangement;

	(ii)	deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Cannon Point's transfer agent, or as otherwise directed by Cannon Point, after receipt of proxy materials for, and no later than fifteen (15) calendar days before the date of the Cannon Point Meeting, or any other meeting of the securityholders (or any of them) of Cannon Point called for the purpose of approving the Arrangement Resolution and the Arrangement Agreement, a duly executed proxy or form of proxy directing that the Cannon Point Subject Securities be voted at such meeting in favour of the Arrangement Resolution and the foregoing related matters;

	(iii)	not support any action that is intended or could be expected to impede, interfere with, delay, postpone or discourage the completion of the Arrangement; and

	(iv)	not do anything that could be expected to frustrate or hinder the consummation of the Arrangement.

(b)	The Shareholder shall not, and hereby agrees not to:

	(i)	assert or exercise any dissent rights in respect of the Arrangement that the Shareholder may have; or

	(ii)	commence or participate in, and shall, and hereby agrees to, take all actions necessary to opt out of any class in any class action with respect to, any claim, derivative or otherwise, against Cannon Point or Northern Dynasty or any of their subsidiaries (or any of their respective successors) relating to the negotiation, execution and delivery of the Arrangement Agreement or the consummation of the Arrangement.

(c)	The Shareholder hereby revokes any and all previous proxies granted that may conflict or be inconsistent with the matters set forth in this Agreement and the Shareholder agrees not to, directly or indirectly, grant any other proxy or power of attorney with respect to the matters set forth in this Agreement except as expressly required or permitted by this Agreement.

2.	No Sale, Transfer or Encumbrance, Additional Purchases.

Except with the prior written consent of Northern Dynasty, the Shareholder agrees and covenants in favour of Northern Dynasty not to option, transfer, sell, gift, pledge, hypothecate, encumber, or otherwise dispose of any of the Cannon Point Subject Securities, or enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding in connection therewith (including any derivative Arrangement that has the effect of reducing the economic exposure of the Shareholder to the Cannon Point Subject Securities), provided that the Shareholder may transfer any of the Cannon Point Subject Securities to a trust or other legal entity over which the Shareholder has control and is able to direct the voting of such Cannon Point Subject Securities, or sell any of the Cannon Point Subject Securities without the prior written consent of Northern Dynasty, so long as the purchaser agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and enter into an agreement with Northern Dynasty on the same terms and conditions as this Agreement.

The Shareholder agrees that any Cannon Point Shares purchased or acquired after the date hereof shall be subject to the terms of the Agreement to the same extent as the Cannon Point Subject Securities.

3. Representations and Warranties of the Shareholder

The Shareholder represents and warrants that: (a) it owns, directly or indirectly, or has direction or control over, the Cannon Point Subject Securities free and clear of all encumbrances, and does not own, directly or indirectly, or exercise control or direction over, any other securities of Cannon Point; (b) it has the sole right to vote the Cannon Point Subject Securities; (c) other than this Agreement, none of the Cannon Point Subject Securities are subject to any adverse claim or voting agreement, proxy, voting trust, vote pooling or other agreement with respect to the right to vote the Cannon Point Subject Securities or call meetings of holders of Cannon Point Shares; (d) no person, firm, or corporation has any agreement or option, or any right or privilege capable of becoming an agreement or option, for the purchase, acquisition or transfer from the Shareholder of any of the Cannon Point Subject Securities; (e) it has full power and authority to make, enter into and carry out the terms of this Agreement; and (f) there are no legal proceedings in progress before any public body, court or authority or, to the knowledge of the Shareholder, pending or threatened against the Shareholder that would adversely affect in any manner the ability of the Shareholder to enter into and carry out the terms of this Agreement.

4. Representations and Warranties of Northern Dynasty

Northern Dynasty represents and warrants that: (a) it is a corporation validly existing, duly organized and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation; (b) it has the requisite power and authority to enter into and carry out the terms of this Agreement; and (c) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Northern Dynasty and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Northern Dynasty, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency and other Laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and subject to the qualification that equitable remedies may only be granted in the discretion of a court of competent jurisdiction.

5. Control

If any of the Cannon Point Subject Securities are held through a nominee or corporation or trust or other legal entity over which the Shareholder has control, as defined in the legislation governing the ownership of the property of such nominee or corporation or trust or other legal entity (either alone or in conjunction with any other person), the Shareholder shall vote or shall cause to be voted such Cannon Point Subject Securities and exercise his or her power and authority to ensure that this Agreement is complied with by said nominee or corporation or trust or other legal entity.

6. Capacity as Shareholder

If the Shareholder is a member of the board of directors of Cannon Point, the Shareholder is bound hereunder solely in his capacity as a Shareholder.

7. Disclosure

The Shareholder agrees that the details of this Agreement may be set out in any press release, information circular or other communication of Cannon Point and/or Northern Dynasty issued, made or given in connection with the Arrangement or the Arrangement Agreement and that this Agreement may be made publicly available on SEDAR or filed with the securities regulatory authorities in Canada and otherwise to the extent required by Law.

8. Termination.

(a)	This Agreement shall automatically terminate on the first to occur of:

	(i)	the date that the Securityholder Approval is obtained;

	(ii)	the date that the Arrangement Resolution is not approved at a duly called and held Cannon Point Meeting; and

	(iii)	the termination of the Arrangement Agreement.

(b)	This Agreement may be terminated by the Shareholder if (i) Northern Dynasty breaches or is in default of any of its covenants or obligations under this Agreement in a material way; or (ii) any of the representations or warranties of Northern Dynasty under this Agreement shall have been at the date hereof, or subsequently become, untrue or incorrect in any material respect; provided the Shareholder has notified Northern Dynasty in writing of any of the foregoing events and the same has not been cured by Northern Dynasty within ten (10) calendar days of the date such notice was received by Northern Dynasty.

(c)	Upon termination of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 8, the provisions of this Agreement will become void and no party shall have liability to any other party, except in respect of a breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation hereunder, or a misrepresentation in this Agreement occurring prior to such termination.

9.	Miscellaneous.

	(a)	Each of the Parties agrees to execute such further and other deeds, documents, instruments and assurances and to do such further and other acts as may be necessary to carry out the true intent and meaning of this Agreement fully and effectually.

	(b)	It is understood and agreed that monetary damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement by the Shareholder. Without prejudice to the rights and remedies otherwise available to it, Northern Dynasty shall be entitled to equitable relief by way of injunction or otherwise if the Shareholder breaches, or threatens to breach, any of the provisions of this Agreement. Northern Dynasty shall not be required to obtain or furnish any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining or seeking any such remedy. Notwithstanding that damages may be readily quantifiable, the Shareholder agrees not to plead sufficiency of damages as a defense in any such proceeding and the Shareholder further agrees to not oppose Northern Dynasty in seeking or the granting of such relief.

	(c)	This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties concerning the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous representations, discussions, proposals, negotiations, communications and agreements, whether oral or written, between the Parties relating to the same.

	(d)	No amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by duly authorized signatories of the Parties. The waiver by either party of a breach of or a default under any provision of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach of or default under the same or any other provision of this Agreement, nor shall any delay or omission on the part of either party to exercise or avail itself of any right, power, privilege or remedy that it has or may have hereunder operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any further exercise of any such right, power, privilege or remedy hereunder.

	(e)	Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require the Shareholder or Northern Dynasty to violate any judgement, ruling, order, writ, injunction, award, Law, decree, statute, ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to either party.

	(f)	This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein. Each of the Parties hereby irrevocably attorns to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of the Province of British Columbia in respect of all matters arising under and in relation to this Agreement and waives any defences to the maintenance of an action in the Courts of the Province of British Columbia.

	(g)	In the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining portions hereof shall remain in full force and effect and such provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent possible so as to effect the intent of the Parties, and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated.

	(h)	This Agreement will enure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors, permitted assigns, trustees, representatives, heirs and executors. This Agreement may not be assigned by either party without the prior written consent of the other party.

	(i)	Each of the parties acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to obtain legal advice satisfactory to it concerning the nature and effect of this Agreement, which it executes without reliance on any representation, advice, or inducement by the other party.
