Cobre del Mayo operates the Piedras Verdes copper mine in Mexico, the third largest copper mine in the country. It produces copper cathode through heap leaching and SX/EW processes, and sells ore to a nearby flotation plant for copper concentrate production. Since being acquired in 2009, the company has invested over $300 million to transform the mine into a low-cost, high-quality copper producer. Recent financial performance has shown improving production volumes, sales, and profitability. Cobre del Mayo also recently acquired a 40% stake in the adjacent flotation plant to further optimize operations across both sites.

Key Initiatives Implemented Since Invecture Acquisition
! In 2009, changed from contract mining to owner operation and purchased the former contractor’s equipment fleet.
Purchased, re-engineered and installed a crushing, screening, conveying and stacking system
! Diversification of processes:
— Crush for Leach, Run of Mine (ROM) leach, and SX/EW produce copper cathode
• Installed capacity of 87 tpd, increasing to ~100 tpd in 2H15

Kupari Acquisition
! During 4Q14, Cobre del Mayo acquired 40% of the common stock of Kupari Holdings, which owns the flotation plant adjacent
to the Piedras Verdes Mine. As a result, Cobre del Mayo now accounts for its 40% participation in Kupari Holdings by using
the equity method.
! Cobre del Mayo’s participation in Kupari Holdings:
— Simplifies and optimizes ore allocation among processes
— Facilitates process improvements that involve both heap leaching and flotation
— Diversifies operational risk across two processes and products

Relevant Agreements and Risk Management
Copper Cathode
! Agreement for sale of 100% of 2015 PV cathode production to two internationally renowned,
credit-worthy commodity traders (50% of cathode production to each trader).
— Both agreements are valid from January 1, 2015 through and including December 31, 2015.
— Cathode sold FOB at the mine and paid twice weekly against holding certificates
Mining Concessions
! We have the exclusive right to explore and exploit 30 mining concessions with an initial term of
50 years which terminate between 2043 and 2062
— 25 mining concessions owned by PV
— 5 mining concessions owned by Grupo Rexgo. The right to exploit these concessions is
governed by a contract subject to international arbitration
! Royalties: Grupo Rexgo charges PV a 3% net sales royalty for the copper mined from their
underground resource concessions
! Land Ownership: PV owns all of the land at the mine in addition to a reserve for leach pad and
waste dump expansion
Ore for Concentrate
! CDM sells copper ore to KM to produce copper concentrate
— Purchase Price of Ore: Purchase of the ore is a function of the copper recovered and the
current LME copper price with certain freight, handling and operating charges
— Term: Initial fixed term of 10 years and provides for renewals
— Volume: Since April, 2013, CDM has sold an average of 5,219 tpd with 46 tpd of copper
contained

Relevant Agreements and Risk Management
Mining Tax
! Mexican government implemented a special duty on mining concessions roughly equivalent to
7.5% of EBITDA starting January, 2014
! As roughly 95% of CDM ore is derived from Grupo Rexgo mining concessions, tax is payable
by the concession holder with respect to its EBITDA
Labor / Environmental
! Safety, environmental compliance and labor relations are key areas of focus
! Since Invecture’s acquisition, CDM has had a solid safety track record
— Lowest premium for “Riesgo de Trabajo” (worker risk) as classified by IMSS (Mexican
Social Security Institute), demonstrating high safety standards
! Approx. 409 of our 918 employees are represented by the Confederación de Trabajadores de
Mexico (“CTM”)
! Certified as a Socially Responsible company by the Mexican Center for Philanthropy (Centro
Mexicano para la Filantropía) and certified as a Clean Industry by the Mexican Federal Attorney
for Environmental Protection (Procuraduría Federal de Protección al Ambiente), the
enforcement arm of the Mexican environmental ministry
Insurance Policy
! Insurance policy coverage for all risk with business interruption
— Policy underwritten by Royal & SunAlliance with general coverage up to $200 M

Copper Price Forecasts Over Time
! The market has consistently underestimated the copper price when forecasting long term prices
! Copper prices have been much higher due to continuing shortfalls in supply. Delays in new projects, supply interruption and
declining production from existing mines have been the main drivers

Incentive Price Drives the Floor Value of Copper
" Investment in large projects is very capital intensive and is increasingly so as head grade declines
" The incentive price required to justify investments in the expansion of existing mines and the construction of new ones is
estimated at $3.30/lb ($7,275/t)
— Incentive price considers required Cu price to achieve specified rate of return on expansion capex(1)
— Incentive price has been adjusted downward by $0.20/lb from $3.50/lb ($7,716/t) to reflect the decline in oil driven input
prices since 2Q14 and the USD strength.
" Although short term copper prices are unpredictable, we believe that long term prices must be driven by the increase over time
of the incentive price (necessary to justify the investment in new production to maintain global output)
