("Mackay") for an increased aggregate purchase price of $2.95 million (the "Purchase Price") and a 1.5% NSR production royalty from the sales of all valuable minerals and products extracted from these properties.
The Amendment increases the purchase price to $2.95 million in cash from the previous $2.75 million in both cash and stock, effectively increasing the cash component of the transaction by $1.2 million.
