CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION

Certain statements in this Annual Report on Form 20-F (this “Annual Report”) under the captions “Item 3 - Risk Factors”, “Item 4 – “Business Overview”, Item 5 - “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” and “Item 11 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” and elsewhere in this Annual Report and the documents incorporated herein by reference constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and "forward-looking information” under applicable Canadian securities legislation. Some forward-looking statements may be identified by such terms as “believes”, “anticipates”, “intends” or “expects” collectively “forward-looking statements”. Forward-looking information in this Annual Report include statements regarding the Company's plans for its projects, statements relating to mineral resources, as they are based on various assumptions that are inherently forward-looking, statements regarding the anticipated timing by which the Company will require additional funds. These forward-looking statements are based on the Company’s current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends affecting the financial condition of its business and the industry in which it operates. Such forward-looking statements are based on assumptions regarding future events and other matters and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors including the factors set forth in other filings with the Canadian securities commissions and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company or industry results to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Assumptions on which forward-looking statements are based include the assumptions underlying mineral resource estimates and in the technical reports supporting such estimates, the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern and will continue to be able to access the capital required to advance its projects and continue operations. Such risks and the assumptions that accompany them, uncertainties and other factors include, among others, the following: general economic and business conditions, which will, among other things, impact the demand for gold and silver and other precious metals explored for by the Company; industry capacity; the ability of the Company to raise the capital required to implement its business strategy; changes in, or the unintentional failure to comply with, government regulations (especially safety and environmental laws and regulations); changes in the uses of gold, silver and other precious metals; silver and gold price volatility; increased competition; risks of the mining industry; exploration programs not being successful; inability to obtain financing; inability to obtain, or cancellation of, government permits; changes to regulations and mining law; increased reclamation obligations; title defects with respect to properties; risks associated with international operations; and foreign exchange and currency fluctuations. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements in this Annual Report will prove to be accurate and actual results and future events could vary materially from those implied by such statements. Consequently, all of the forward-looking statements made in this Annual Report are qualified by these cautionary statements. The Company disclaims any obligation to update or revise any written forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise except as required by applicable laws.

Currency and Measurement

All currency amounts in this Annual Report on Form 20-F are stated inCanadian dollars unless otherwise indicated. On July 5, 2016, the Bank of Canada noon rate for Canadian Dollars was U.S. $1.00: Cdn $1.2949 (see Item 4 for further historical exchange rate information). Conversion of metric units into imperial equivalents is as follows:

CAUTIONARY NOTE TO U.S. INVESTORS

This Annual Report may use the terms “measured resources” and “indicated resources.” We advise U.S. investors that while such terms are recognized and permitted under Canadian regulations, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission does not recognize them. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of the mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into reserves.

This Annual Report may use the terms “inferred resources.” We advise U.S. investors that while such term is recognized and permitted under Canadian regulations, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission does not recognize it. “Inferred resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, as well as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or other economic studies. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of an inferred resource exists, or is economically or legally mineable.

ITEM 3. KEY INFORMATION

A. Selected Financial Data

The selected financial data of First Energy Metals Limited. (“First Energy” or the “Company” and formerly Agave Silver Corp. (“Agave” or the “Company”) for the years ended March 31, 2017, 2016 2015 and 20142015 was derived from the Company’s consolidated financial statements as audited by DeVisser Gray LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants, for the year ended March 31, 2017 and by Morgan & Company LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants, for the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, as indicated in the audit report included elsewhere in this Annual Report.

The Selected Financial Data should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and other financial information included elsewhere in this Annual Report.

The Company has not declared any dividends on its common shares since incorporation and does not anticipate that it will do so in the foreseeable future. The present policy of the Company is to retain future earnings for use in its operations and the expansion of its business.

The following table sets forth selected consolidated financial information with respect to the Company for the periods indicated and is extracted from the more detailed consolidated financial statements included herein. The following constitutes selected financial data for Agave Silver Corp.the Company for the last five fiscal years ended March 31, 2016,2017, in Canadian dollars, presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) for the years 2017, 2016, 2016,2015, 2014 2013 and 2012,2013, The following table should be read in conjunction with “Item 5: Operating and Financial Review and Prospects”, and the consolidated financial statements included in Item 17. On July 5, 2016, the noon buying rate as quoted by the Bank of Canada was 1.2949 Canadian dollars per U.S. dollar.

(Canadian Dollars in Thousands Except Per Share Amounts)

No cash or other dividends have been declared.

Note:

Exploration expenditures are now charged to earnings as they are incurred until the mineral property interest reaches the development stage. Significant costs related to mineral property acquisitions, including allocations for undeveloped mineral property interests, are capitalized until the viability of the mineral property interest is determined. When it has been established that a mineral deposit is commercially mineable and an economic analysis has been completed, the costs subsequently incurred to develop a mine on the property prior to the start of mining operations are capitalized.

The expensing of exploration costs as incurred is now consistent with US GAAP, whereby all exploration expenditures are expensed until an independent feasibility study has determined that the property is capable of economic commercial production.

The tables below include the quarterly results for the years ended March 31, 2017 (“fiscal 2017”) and 2016 (“fiscal 2016”) and 2015 (“fiscal 2015”).

D. Risk Factors

The following is a brief discussion of those distinctive or special characteristics of Agave’sthe Company’s operations and industry which may have a material impact on Agave’s financial performance.

Readers should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below before deciding whether to invest in shares of the Company’s common stock.

Financial Risk Factors

AgaveFirst Energy has no source of operating cash flow, has a history of operating losses and has no assets of any significance with positive financial statement carrying values.In addition all of the Company’s projects have a financial statement value of zero. AgaveThe Company has no revenues from operations and all of its mineral property interests are in the exploration stage. The Company will not receive revenues from operations at any time in the near future, and Agavethe Company has no prior years’ history of earnings or cash flow. AgaveThe Company has not paid dividends on its shares at any time since incorporation and does not anticipate doing so in the foreseeable future. Agave’s consolidatedThe Company’s financial statements have been prepared assuming Agaveit will continue on a going-concern basis. Should funding not be obtained, this assumption will change and Agave’sthe Company’s assets may be written down to realizable values. AgaveThe Company has incurred losses since inception (deficit at March 31, 2016,2017, is $34,302,758)$34,659,619), which casts doubt on the ability of Agavethe Company to continue as a going concern. AgaveThe Company has no revenue other than interest income. A mining project can typically require ten years or more between discovery, definition, development and construction and as a result, no production revenue is expected from any of the Company’s exploration properties in the near future. All of Agave’sthe Company e’s short to medium-term operating and exploration expenses must be paid from its existing cash position or external financing. At March 31, 2016,2017, Agave had working capital deficit of $237,139$31,069 compared to a working capital deficit of $355,003$237,139 at March 31, 2015.2016. Working capital is defined as current assets less current liabilities.

AgaveFirst Energy may be unable to obtain the funds necessary to expand exploration. Agave’sThe Company’s operations consist, almost exclusively, of cash consuming activities given that all of its mineral projects are in the early exploration stage. Agave has suspended exploration activities on all of its mineral properties. AgaveThe Company will need to receive additional equity capital or other funding from the joint venture of one or more properties or the sale of one or more properties for the next year, and failing that, may cease to be economically viable. To date, the only sources of funds that have been available to the Company are the sale of equity capital or the offering by the Company of an interest in its properties to be earned by another party or parties carrying out further development thereof.

The Company does not have sufficient financial resources to fund operations for the balance of fiscal 2017.2018. The Company has been successful in the past in obtaining financing through the sale of equity securities but as an exploration stage company, it is often difficult to obtain adequate financing when required, and it is not necessarily the case that the terms of such financings will be favourable. If Agavethe Company fails to obtain additional financing on a timely basis, the Company could forfeit its mineral property interests, dilute its interests in its properties, sell one or more properties and/or reduce or terminate operations.

AgaveThe Company is continuously reviewing strategies for private placement equity financings as well as other forms of financing that would carry the Company through the next fiscal year. If a private equity financing were to be completed, it is expected that warrants may be included in the securities offered. Any such financings will result in dilution of existing shareholders.

Volatile gold and silvermetal prices and external market conditions can cause significant changes in the Company’s share price because as the prices of precious metals increase or decrease, the economic viability of the mineral properties is affected.AgaveThe Company has no history of mining or current source of revenue. The Company is exploring for silver and gold,metals and historically, the prices of the common shares of junior silver and gold exploration companies are very volatile. This volatility may be partly attributed to the volatility of silver and goldmetal prices, and also to the success or failure of the Company’s exploration programs. Market, financial and economic factors not directly related to mining activities can also affect the Company’s ability to raise equity financing.

Below are the annual average, high and low prices of gold and silver from the year 2005 to 2015, and year 2016 to date.

Gold^[1]

Silver^[2]

Fluctuations in financial markets can negatively impact the Company’s ability to achieve sufficient funding.

Over the last decade there have been periods of significant volatility in world financial markets. The volatility can negatively impact the company’sCompany’s ability to raise sufficient equity financing to sustain operations. Future financial market volatility is likely and it should not be assumed that adequate funding will be available to the Company in amounts or at times when it is required.

Risks Associated with Mineral Exploration

Agave’sFirst Energy’s exploration efforts may be unsuccessful in locating viable mineral resources.Resource exploration is a speculative business, characterized by a number of significant risks, including, among other things, unprofitable efforts resulting not only from the failure to discover mineral deposits but also from finding mineral deposits, which, though present, are insufficient in quantity and/or quality to return a profit from production.

There is no certainty that expenditures to be made by the Company on the exploration of its properties and prospects as described herein will result in discoveries of mineralized material in commercial quality and quantities.

Mineral Resource Estimates Are Only Estimates and May Not Reflect the Actual Deposits or the Economic Viability of Gold and Silver Extraction.Although the Company has carefully preparedprepares its mineral resource figures, such figures are estimates only and no assurance can be given that the indicated tonnages and grade will be achieved. There is significant uncertainty in any mineral resource estimate. Estimates of inferred resources are the least certain of the resource categories and there is no assurance that such resources can or will be upgraded to another category of resource, or that further exploration will confirm or validate such estimates. Actual deposits encountered and the economic viability of, and returns from, a deposit (if mined) may differ materially from estimates disclosed by the Company or implied by estimates of mineral resources. The estimating of mineral resources is a subjective process and the accuracy of mineral resource estimates is a function of the quantity and quality of available data, the accuracy of statistical computations, and the assumptions used and judgments made in interpreting engineering and geological information. Mineral resource estimates are based on many things, including assumed commodity prices, continuity of mineralization, tonnage and grade of mineralization, metallurgy, estimated mineral recovery rates, cost of capital, mine development costs, operating costs and exchange rates. Changes in assumptions may result in a significant reduction in the reported mineral resources and thereby have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations and financial condition.

Estimated mineral resources may also require downward revisions based on changes in metal prices and further exploration or development activity. This could materially and adversely affect estimates of the tonnage or grade of mineralization, estimated recovery rates or other important factors that influence mineral resource and reserve of estimates. Any reduction in estimated mineral reserves or estimated resources as a result could require material write downs in investment in the affected mining property, which could have a material and adverse effect on the Company's results of operations and financial condition.

The Company has not established the presence of any proven and probable reserves at any of its mineral properties. There can be no assurance that subsequent testing or future studies will establish proven and probable reserves on the Company's properties. The failure to establish proven and probable reserves could severely restrict the Company's ability to successfully implement its strategies for long-term growth.

There is Uncertainty Relating to Mineral Resources.Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. Due to the uncertainty, which may attach to inferred mineral resources, there is no assurance that inferred mineral resources will be upgraded to indicated and measured mineral resources as a result of continued exploration. If mineral resources are not upgraded to proven and probable mineral reserves, it could materially and adversely affect and/or restrict the Company's ability to successfully implement its strategies for long-term growth.

Agave’s projects have uncertain project realization values.Agave changed its accounting policy with respect to the deferral (capitalization) of exploration costs in fiscal 2009. The Company continues to defer (capitalize) acquisition costs incurred in connection with its projects on its balance sheet. Agave has written down all its properties to Nil. Although the current financial statement carrying value of each Company’s projects is zero, in the future the Company may have projects with positive financial statement carrying values. In such cases a diminution in the book value of shareholders’ equity would be the result.

AgaveFirst Energy may not be able to market minerals if any are acquired or discovered by the Company due to factors beyond the control of the Company.The marketability of minerals that could in the future be acquired or discovered by the Company may be affected by numerous factors which are beyond the control of the Company and which cannot be accurately predicted, such as market fluctuations, the proximity and capacity of milling facilities, mineral markets and processing equipment, and such other factors as government regulation, including regulation relating to royalties, allowable production, importing and exporting of minerals and environmental protection, the combination of which factors may result in the Company not receiving an adequate return on investment capital.

Environmental and Regulatory Risk Factors

Compliance with environmental regulations could affect future profitability and timeliness of operations.The current and anticipated future operations of the Company require permits from various federal, territorial and local governmental authorities. Companies engaged in the exploration and development of mines and related facilities must comply with applicable laws, regulations and permits.

The Company’s exploration activities are subject to various laws governing land use, the protection of the environment, prospecting, development, commodity prices, exports, taxes, labour standards, occupational safety and health, waste disposal, toxic substances, mine safety and other matters. AgaveThe Company believes it is in substantial compliance with all material laws and regulations which currently apply to its activities. The Company may be unable to obtain all permits required for exploration and development, and the costs of obtaining these permits may not be commercially reasonable. Existing laws and regulations may be modified, which could have an adverse effect on any exploration project that the Company might undertake.

Failure to comply with environmental and reclamation rules could result in penalties.The Company’s activities are subject to laws and regulations controlling not only mineral exploration and exploitation activities but also the possible effects of such activities upon the environment. Environmental legislation may change and make mining uneconomic or result in significant environmental or reclamation costs. Environmental legislation provides for restrictions and prohibitions and a breach of environmental legislation may result in the imposition of fines and penalties or the suspension or closure of operations. In addition, certain types of operations require the submission of environmental impact statements and approval thereof by government authorities. Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner that may mean stricter standards and enforcement, increased fines and penalties for non-compliance, more stringent environmental assessments of proposed projects and a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and their directors, officers and employees. Permits from a variety of regulatory authorities are required for many aspects of mineral exploitation activities, including closure and reclamation. Future environmental legislation could cause additional expense, capital expenditures, restrictions, liabilities and delays in the development of the Company’s properties, the extent of which cannot be predicted. In the context of environmental permits, including the approval of closure and reclamation plans, the Company must comply with standards and laws and regulations that may entail costs and delays, depending on the nature of the activity to be permitted and how stringently the regulations are implemented by the permitting authority. The Company does not maintain environmental liability insurance.

Failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations and permitting requirements may result in enforcement actions, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities causing operations to cease or be curtailed, and may include corrective measures requiring capital expenditures, installation of additional equipment or remedial actions. The Company and its employees havehas been involved in the exploration of mineral properties for many years. Currently, the operations of the Company have been limited to exploration, and no mining activity has yet been undertaken. The mining industry is heavily regulated in North America, where the Company has its operations, so that permitting is required before any work is undertaken where there is any form of land disturbance. Exploration activity undertaken in Mexico is subject to the laws and regulations established and administered by the Federal government. To date, land disturbance has been minimal and all required reclamation has been completed.

Other Risk Factors

AgaveFirst Energy is dependent on its ability to recruit and retain key personnel. The success of the activities of Agavethe Company is dependent to a significant extent on the efforts and abilities of its management. Investors must be willing to rely to a significant extent on their discretion and judgment. Agave does not maintain key employee insurance for any of its employees. AgaveThe Company has relied on and will continue to rely on consultants and others for exploration, development and technical expertise. The ability of the Company to retain employeeskey personnel and its ability to continue to pay for services are dependent upon the ability of the Company to obtain adequate financing to continue operating as a going concern.

Agave’sFirst Energy’s title to mineral property interests may be challenged.Although Agavethe Company has done a review of titles to its mineral interests, it has not obtained title insurance with respect to its properties and there is no guarantee of title. The Company has obtained a land title review and legal opinion by a Mexican law firm which affirmed Agave’s title to Nuevo Milenio. However, theCompany’s mineral properties may be subject to prior unregistered agreements or transfers or native land claims, and title may be affected by undetected defects. Agave’sThe Company’s Canadian mineral property interests consist of mineral claims, which have not been surveyed, and therefore the precise area and location of such claims or rights may be in doubt. As there are unresolved native land claim issues in British Columbia, the Company’s properties and prospects in this jurisdiction may be affected in the future. The Company’s mineral properties in British Columbia are early stage exploration, and have no known mineral resources or reserves.

Agave’sFirst Energy’s directors and officers serve as directors andand/or officers of other publicly traded junior resource companies.Some of the directors and officers of Agavethe Company serve as officers and/or directors of other resource exploration companies and are engaged and will continue to be engaged in the search for additional resource opportunities on their own behalf and on behalf of other companies, and situations may arise where these directors and officers will be in direct competition with Agave.the Company. Such potential conflicts, if any, will be dealt with in accordance with the relevant provisions of British Columbia corporate and common law. In order to avoid the possible conflict of interest which may arise between the directors’ and officers’ duties to Agavethe Company and their duties to the other companies on whose boards they serve, the directors and officers of Agavethe Company expect that participation in exploration prospects offered to the directors or officers will be allocated among or between the various companies that they serve on the basis of prudent business judgement and the relative financial abilities and needs of the companies.

AgaveFirst Energy may not be able to insure certain risks which could negatively impact the Company’s operating results. In the course of exploration, development and production of mineral properties, certain risks, and in particular unanticipated geological and operating conditions as well as fires, explosions, flooding, earthquakes, power outages, labour disruptions, and the inability to obtain suitable or adequate machinery, equipment or labour may occur. It is not always possible to fully insure against such risks and the Company may decide not to take out insurance against such risks as a result of high premiums or other reasons. Should such liabilities arise, they could reduce or eliminate any future profitability and result in increasing costs and a decline in the value of the securities of the Company.

U.S. investors may not be able to enforce their civil liabilities against the Company or its directors, controlling persons and officers. It may be difficult for U.S. investors to bring and enforce suits against the Company. The Company is a corporation incorporated in British Columbia under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) and, consequently, there is a risk that Canadian courts may not enforce judgements of U.S. courts or enforce, in an original action, liabilities directly predicated upon the U.S. federal securities laws. The Company’s directors and officers are residents of Canada or other countries other than the United Stetaes and all of the Company’s assets are located outside of the United States. Consequently, it may be difficult for United States investors to affect service of process upon those directors or officers who are not residents of the United States, or to realize in the United States upon judgements of United States courts predicated upon civil liabilities under United States securities laws. It is unlikely that an original action could be brought successfully in Canada against any of such persons or the Company predicated solely upon such civil liabilities under U.S. securities laws.

Agave has been operating in Mexico, which has different risks than those of British Columbia, or Manitoba, Canada. Agave’s activities in Mexico may be subject not only to risks common to operations in the mining industry, but also to the political and economic uncertainties of operating in foreign jurisdictions, namely Mexico. This may result in misinterpretation of laws, unilateral modification of mining or exploration rights, operating restrictions, increased taxes or environmental regulation, any or all of which could have an adverse impact upon Agave. Agave’s operations may also be affected to varying degrees by political and economic instability, terrorism, crime, extreme fluctuations in currency exchange rates and inflation. Agave’s operations and exploration activities in Mexico are subject to Mexican federal and state laws and regulations governing protection of the environment. These laws are evolving and, as a general matter, are becoming more restrictive.

Mineral exploration and mining activities may be affected in varying degrees by political stability and government regulations relating to the mining industry and foreign investors. Any changes in regulations or shifts in political conditions are beyond the control of the Company and may adversely affect its business. Operations may be affected in varying degrees by government regulations, policies or directives with respect to restrictions on production, price controls, export controls, income taxes, expropriation of property, and repatriation of income, royalties, environmental legislation and mine safety.

Risks Relating to an Investment in the Securities of the Company

AgaveFirst Energy could be deemed a Passive Foreign Investment Company which could have negative consequences for U.S. Holders. Holders.Potential investors who are U.S. Holders (defined below) should be aware that Agavethe Company expects to be a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) for the current fiscal year, may have been a PFIC in prior fiscal years and may continue to be a PFIC in subsequent years. If Agavethe Company were to be treated as a PFIC, U.S. Holders of the AgaveCompany’s common shares would be subject to adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences, including a substantially increased U.S. income tax liability and an interest charge upon the sale or disposition of the AgaveCompany’s common shares and upon the receipt of distributions on the AgaveCompany’s common shares to the extent such distributions are treated as “excess distributions” under the U.S. federal income tax rules relating to PFICs. U.S. Holders could potentially mitigate such consequences by making certain elections with respect to the AgaveCompany’s common shares. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding Agave’sthe Company’s PFIC classification, the consequences to them if Agavethe Company is a PFIC, and the availability and the consequences of making certain elections to mitigate such consequences. (See Item 10 Taxation -United States Tax Consequences).

Agave’sFirst Energy’s stock price may limit its ability to raise additional capital by issuing common shares.The low price of Agave’sthe Company’s common shares also limits Agave’sthe Company’s ability to raise additional capital by issuing additional shares. There are several reasons for this effect. First, the internal policies of certain institutional investors prohibit the purchase of low-priced stocks. Second, many brokerage houses do not permit low-priced stocks to be used as collateral for margin accounts or to be purchased on margin. Third, some brokerage house policies and practices tend to discourage individual brokers from dealing in low-priced stocks. Finally, broker’s commissions on low-priced stocks usually represent a higher percentage of the stock price than commissions on higher priced stocks. As a result, Agave’sthe Company’s shareholders pay transaction costs that are a higher percentage of their total share value than if Agave’sthe Company’s share price were substantially higher.

The liquidity of Agave’sFirst Energy’s shares in the United States markets may be limited or more difficult to effectuate because AgaveFirst Energy is a “Penny Stock” issuer. Agave’sThe Company’s stock is subject to U.S. “Penny Stock” rules which make the stock more difficult for U.S. shareholders to trade on the open market. The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny” stocks. Penny stocks are equity securities with a price of less than US$5.00 per share, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system provided that current prices and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system.

The Penny Stock Rules require a broker-dealer, prior to effecting a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from such rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market.

In addition, the Penny Stock Rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from such rules the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. At the present market prices, Agave’sthe Company’s common shares will (and in the foreseeable future are expected to continue to) fall within the definition of a penny stock. Accordingly, United States broker-dealers trading in Agave’s shares will be subject to the Penny Stock Rules. Rather than complying with those rules, some broker-dealers may refuse to attempt to sell penny stocks. As a result, shareholders and their broker-dealers in the United States may find it more difficult to sell their shares of Agave,the Company, if a market for the shares should develop in the United States.

The market for the Company’s stock has been subject to volume and price volatility which could negatively affect a shareholder’s ability to buy or sell the Company’s shares.The market for the common shares of the Company may be highly volatile for reasons both related to the performance of the Company or events pertaining to the industry (e.g. mineral price fluctuation/high production costs/accidents) as well as factors unrelated to the Company or its industry.

Market demand for products incorporating minerals in their manufacture fluctuates over time, resulting in a change of demand for the mineral and an attendant change in the price for the mineral. The Company’s common shares can be expected to be subject to volatility in both price and volume arising from market expectations, announcements and press releases regarding the Company’s business, and changes in estimates and evaluations by securities analysts or other events or factors. In the last decade, securities markets in the United States and Canada and internationally have experienced periods of high price and volume volatility, and the market prices of securities of many companies, particularly small-capitalization companies such as the Company, have experienced wide fluctuations that have not necessarily been related to the operations, performances, underlying asset values, or prospects of such companies. For these reasons, the Company’s common shares can also be expected to be subject to volatility resulting from purely market forces over which the Company will have no control. Further, despite the existence of a market for trading the Company’s common shares in Canada, shareholders of the Company may be unable to sell significant quantities of common shares in the public trading markets without a significant reduction in the price of the stock. The trading price of Agave’s shares has ranged between $0.05 and $4.80 in the last five calendar years.

Significant potential equity dilution. A summary of Agave’s diluted share capital at June XX, 2016 is as follows:

Agave had stock options outstanding (1,490,000 at March 31, 2016 and 1,450,000 at July 5, 2016), which are exercisable at prices ranging from $0.07 to $1.60 per share (retroactively adjusted to reflect share consolidation effective October 3, 2013) as at March 31, 2016 and $0.07 as at July 5, 2016. In the money options could be exercised prior to expiry while the higher priced options may not be exercised before expiry. In either case, the outstanding options could act as an upside damper on the price of Agave’s shares. There are no shares of Agave remaining subject to hold period restrictions in Canada or the United States as of March 31, 2016 or as at July 5, 2016, as such hold restrictions have expired. At March 31, 2016 and at July 5, 2016 there were 5,000,000 warrants exercisable at an average price of $0.10. The resale of outstanding shares from the exercise of dilutive securities would have a depressing effect on the market for Agave’s shares. Dilutive securities based on the trading range of Agave’s common shares at March 31, 2016, including the warrants and the stock options noted above, collectively represent approximately 20.17% of Agave’s issued shares as at March 31, 2016.

In June 2015, the Company closed the first and final tranche of a non-brokered private placements of units at a price of $0.05 per unit by issuing an aggregate of 5,000,000 units for gross proceeds of $250,000. Each unit is comprised of one common share and one common share purchase warrant, with each warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one additional common share at a price of $0.10 for a term of 24 months after closing. The share purchase warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following assumptions: weighted average risk free interest rate of 0.56%, volatility factor of 120% and an expected life of two years.

On December 2, 2014, the Company announced a proposed non-brokered private placement whereby it intends to offer up to 11,000,000 flow-through common shares at a price of $0.06 per flow-through common share and 9,000,000 non-flow-through units at a price of $0.05 per non-flow-through unit. Each non-flow-through unit will be comprised of one common share and one common share purchase warrant. Each whole non-flow-through warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one non-flow-through common shares at any time for a period of 24 months from the date the warrant is issued, at a price of $0.10.

There were no common shares issued during the year ended March 31, 2015.

During the year ended March 31, 2014 the Company completed, in two tranches, a non-brokered private placement for total proceeds of $1,030,000. The private placement was entirely subscribed by insiders, directors and officers of the Company. The private placement consisted of the issuance of 10,300,000 units of the Company at a price of $0.10 per Unit. Each Unit is comprised of one common share and one common share purchase warrant, each warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one additional common share at a price of $0.25 for a term of two years after closing. The share purchase warrants were valued using a Black-Scholes pricing model using the following assumptions: weighted average risk free interest rate of 1.08-1.18%, volatility factors ranging from 135.38% to 136.66% and an expected life of two years.

The mailing address of the Company is the Company’s executive office at the address noted above. AgaveThe Company operated directly and also, until February 12, 2015, through one wholly-owned subsidiary in Mexico, Cream Minerals de Mexico, S.A. de C.V. (“Cream de Mexico”). ReferencesThe Company’s name change from Agave Silver Corp. to “Agave” or to “the Company” include Cream de Mexico except where otherwise indicated.First Energy Metals Limited was approved on December 16, 2016, at the Company’s Annual General Meeting.

The Company’s fiscal year end is March 31.

The Company’s common shares are listed on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol “FE” and prior to December 20, 2016, its common shares were trading under the symbol “AGV.” AgaveThe Company was quoted on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board in the United States under the symbol “CRMXF”, until July 26, 2012 at which time Agave’sthe Company’s shares began being exclusively quoted on the OTCQB, (also under the symbol “CRMXF”) an electronic trading platform operated by the OTC Markets Group Inc. On October 3, 2013 the symbol was changed to “ASKDF” and effective May 1, 2014 the Company was listed on OTC “Pink”. The Company’s common shares are also quoted on the Frankfurt market under the symbol “DFL”.

The Company was incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada as Cream Silver Mines N.P.L. on October 12, 1966, with an authorized capital of 300,000 shares, each having a par value of $5.00. By Special Resolution passed on July 12, 1974, Agave cancelled its Memorandum and Articles and substituted a new Memorandum and Articles therefore providing for the limited liability of members and the increase of the authorized capital to 1,000,000 shares with a par value of $5.00 each. By Special Resolution passed September 24, 1987, Agave again altered its Memorandum, changing its name to Cream Silver Mines Ltd. in its English form and "Mines Cream Silver Ltee." in its French form and amending its authorized share capital to 3,000,000 common shares without par value. By Special Resolution passed September 15, 1994, Agave altered its Memorandum to consolidate its authorized and issued share capital of 3,000,000 common shares on a five-for-one basis into 600,000 common shares authorized, and issued common shares were consolidated from 1,870,794 common shares on a five-for-one basis into 374,158 common shares; to further increase its authorized capital to 50,000,000 common shares without par value (the "Common Shares"); and to change its name to Cream Minerals Ltd. Agave has been listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSX Venture"), formerly the Vancouver Stock Exchange (“VSE”), since June 3, 1970. The Company subsequently altered its Memorandum to increase its authorized capital to 50,000,000 common shares.

At Agave’s request, the VSE placed the Company on inactive status on August 12, 1994. Agave had requested inactive status in order to reorganize its affairs after the government of the Province of British Columbia placed Agave’s Vancouver Island mineral claims adjoining those of Westmin Resources Ltd. in moratorium, and refused to grant Agave a permit to explore these claims. The claims, in Strathcona Park on Vancouver Island, were placed in moratorium in connection with the Strathcona Park area being declared a provincial park in 1972. These actions by the provincial government left Agave with no viable project at the time and with little working capital. The claims currently remain in moratorium. Throughout the early to mid-1970s, Agave initiated several court cases seeking compensation for these claims. The matter was ultimately decided by a decision of the British Columbia Court of Appeal denying Agave’s right to compensation. Leave to appeal this decision to the Supreme Court of Canada was refused and Agave was then advised that it was without further legal recourse with respect to its Vancouver Island claims. The British Columbia Court of Appeal specifically overruled its previous decision in the Agave case. The Company reviewed its legal position in the light of this development, but has been advised that it remains bound by the previous decision.

Following Agave’s entry into inactive status, Agave embarked on a reorganization program that included a consolidation of its issued and outstanding share capital and subsequent increase of authorized capital (as described above); a restructuring of the board of directors and appointment of new officers; a review of its financial affairs which included completing two private placements for the issuance of a total of 68,000 units, each consisting of one common share and one warrant, at a price of $3.50 per unit, which raised a total of $231,000; and a review of its property holdings. During Agave’s inactive period, certain of its claim groups in British Columbia were allowed to lapse, and others were sold off. Following completion of this reorganization, Agave resumed active status on April 11, 1996.

1966. Effective March 29, 2004, theCompany Act (British Columbia) was replaced by theBusiness Corporations Act (British Columbia). TheBusiness Corporations Act (British Columbia) does not require a company’s Notice of Articles to contain a numerical limit on the authorized capital with respect to each class of shares. Effective September 21, 2004, the Company altered the authorized capital of the Company from 50,000,000 shares without par value to an unlimited number of shares without par value. By Special Resolution effective June 23, 2011, shareholders approved the adoption of new articles for Agave.the Company. See Item 10B – Memorandum and Articles of Association.

Effective October 3, 2013, the Company completed a share consolidation on the basis of ten (10) pre-consolidation common shares for one (1) post-consolidation common share. The periods presented prior to the consolidation have not been retroactively adjusted to reflect this consolidation unless otherwise stated.

Since its incorporation in 1966, the Company has been in the business of acquiring and exploring mineral properties. For most of the past three completed years, and prior thereto, the Company has been principally attempting to locate deposits of precious metals in Mexico and the Provinces of British Columbia and Manitoba, Canada.

Mexico

The Company’sCompany had an exploration project in Mexico iscalled Nuevo Milenio, located south of Tepic in the municipality of Xalisco,Jalisco, State of Nayarit, Mexico, having denounced (staked) the property in 2000 and receiving title to the property in 2001. Mineral licenses in Mexico have a term of 50 years following which an application can be made to extend the term. Carrying costs are comprised of annual taxes of approximately $50,000. Work requirements are nominal

Between 2001 and cash payment can be made2005 and again in lieu of work requirements.

In 2001, Agave entered into anFebruary 2011, the Company conducted exploration programprograms on Nuevo Milenio. Agave explored the property until the year ended March 31, 2005, at which time it wrote it down by $1,523,030 to a nominal carrying value of $1. No acquisition costs are associated with the property, as it was denounced (staked). In 2006, the Company re-commenced exploration.

On July 24, 2009, the Company entered into an option agreement with Roca Mines Inc. (“Roca”) that would have allowed Roca to earn up to a 70% interest in the project. In order to acquire a 50% legal and beneficial interest in the Nuevo Milenio, Roca was to spend a cumulative US$12,000,000 for exploration work by July 24, 2013.

On April 30, 2010, the Company signed a letter of intent (“LOI”), pursuant to which it acquired an option from an arm's length party on the Las Habas Project, comprised of 336 hectares (“Ha”) located in the State of Sinaloa, Mexico. The LOI was for a period of three months. The proposed option agreement outlined in the LOI called for total payments of US$1 million over a 5-year period and a 2% NSR royalty, payable out of production. On June 1, 2010, Agave filed an application to denounce approximately 700 hectares adjoining the Las Habas property. The Company let the LOI lapse and has not pursued title to the adjacent 700 Ha’s. On July 22, 2010, Roca notified the Company that it was not proceeding with the option agreement and the agreement was terminated.

On December 7, 2010, Agave agreed to a bought deal financing of $5 million with the provision of an overallotment of $1 million. The terms of the bought deal were $1.60 per unit with a full warrant exercisable at $2.40 for two years from the date of closing. The Company subsequently closed the bought deal financing on December 21, 2010, and received gross proceeds of $6 million.

The Company initiated a 20,000 metre drill program in February 2011 which was completed in September 2011. Following completion of the drill program during calendar year 2011 (the “2011“2011 Drill Program”Program”), the Company engaged an independent consulting firm to prepare an independent NI 43-101-compliant resource estimate (the “2012 Report”“2012 Report”) based on review of the Company’s previously compiled exploration data as well as exploration data collected during the 2011 Drill Program. The 2012 Report was filed on SEDAR on October 2, 2012.

The board of directors initiated a review of Agave’s strategic alternatives intended to maximize shareholder value and a Special Committee of independent directors (the “Special Committee”) was appointed in the first quarter of the fiscal year. Following completion of the Independent Mineral Resource the Board upon consideration of the poor market conditions and challenging financing environment for junior resource exploration companies determined that alternatives to potentially very dilutive equity financings be considered. The review includes, but is not limited to, the sale or strategic merger of the Company, the joint venture or sale of non-core assets, or the sale or joint venture of a primary asset.

On March 25, 2013, the Company filed an independent NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Nuevo Milenio project (the “2013 Report”“2013 Report”) co-authored by Dr. Derek McBride, P.Eng, and Al Workman of Watts, Griffis and McQuatt Limited (“WGM”WGM”).The 2013 Report replaces the 2012 Report in its entirety. The 2013 Report addresses the concerns raised by the British Columbia Securities Commission with respect to the 2012 Report as outlined in the Company’s news release dated October 23, 2012.

The 2013 Report contains an updated independent mineral resource estimate on the Nuevo Milenio project (the “Mineral“Mineral Resource Estimate”Estimate”) and replaces in its entirety all previous resource estimates filed by Agave and the previous resource estimates can no longer be relied upon.

TheOn November 14, 2014, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement, dated November 14, 2014 among Frank Lang and Ferdinand Holcapek (collectively, the “Purchasers”), Cream Minerals de Mexico, S.A. de C.V. (“Cream Mexico) and the Company (the “Share Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell the Company’s interest in the Nuevo Milenio Property, in Nayarit State, Mexico, to the Purchasers via the sale of all of the securities of Cream Mexico held by the Company (the “Transaction”).

Pursuant to the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement the Purchasers purchased all of the Cream Mexico shares held by the Company in exchange for the aggregate sum of $686,000, payable as the forgiveness of the debts owed by the Company to Frank Lang (or other entities controlled by Frank Lang) and Ferdinand Holcapek.

The Company closed the transaction for the sale of its interest in the Nuevo Milenio project on February 12, 2015.

Canada

British Columbia

The Goldsmith Property

Prior to May 6, 2013, the Company had a 100% interest in the Goldsmith Property (“Goldsmith”) (comprised of the Goldsmith and Lucky Jack Properties) located near Kaslo, British Columbia. Small scale underground mines operated on the property in the early 1900’s. Quartz veins are contained in the intrusive rocks and contain quantities of free gold. Higher grade gold mineralization was reported in the quartz veins which range in width from a few centimetres to five metres. The Company held an option to acquire a 100% interest in the Goldsmith property. The option agreement called for the issuance of 20,000 common shares (issued) and cash payments totaling $110,000 (paid) over six years. The optionors retain a 2% Net Smelter Royalty (NSR) on all metals. The Company was able to acquire 50% of the NSR for $1,000,000 upon commencement of commercial production or sooner.

The Company wrote down the carrying value of Goldsmith Property to $Nil in fiscal 2012 as there were no plans to continue exploration. During the year ended March 31, 2014, the Company transferred title to the Goldsmith and Lucky Jack properties to the optionors.

The Kaslo Property

The 100% owned 4,000 Ha Kaslo Silver Property (“Kaslo”), a silver target, hosts eleven historic high-grade silver mineralized zones within 14 kilometres of favourable horizon. Nine high-grade silver-lead-zinc mines operated on Kaslo at various times from 1895 to 1966. The property is located 12 kilometres west of Kaslo in southern British Columbia. The Company has no plans to conduct exploration work at this time.

Dr. Derek McBride, P.Geo,The Kootenay Lithium Project

On October 7, 2016 the Company entered into an agreement to purchase (the “Agreement”) a 100% interest in certain mineral claims (the “Property”) covering 4,050 hectares located in the Revelstoke and Nelson Mining Divisions, southeastern British Columbia.

Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company has supervisedpurchased a 100% interest in the Company’s previous exploration programs summarized aboveProperty by issuing 6,000,000 common shares of the Company. The Property is subject to a 2.0% Net Smelter Return (“NSR”) mineral royalty and a 24.0% Gross Overriding Royalty (“GOR”) on gemstones produced from the Property. The Company will have the option to reduce the NSR to 1.0% by paying $2,500,000.00. The Company also has the option to purchase one half (50%) of the GOR for $2,000,000.

The Property consists of three groups of mineral claims. The northernmost is located 5km by road northwest of Revelstoke (the Boulder Group), 9km to the southeast is the Company’s supervisorBegbie Group, and “Qualified Person”the Laib Group is situated 25km northwest of Creston. The Boulder and Begbie Groups have been discovered to host a number of lepidolite, pink and green tourmaline, petalite, tantalite, columbite, phosphate and amblygonite-bearing mineral occurrences in pegmatite (LCT type) dyke swarms. Analysis of two grab samples with respectvisible lepidolite-bearing pegmatite outcrop on the Begbie Group returned values of 0.77% and 1.96% Li2O. A grab sample of visible lepidolite-bearing pegmatite outcrop on the Boulder Group assayed 3.70% Li2O.**

**These results have not been confirmed and are of historical context only. There has been insufficient exploration to this propertyfordefine a mineral resource, and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the purposetarget being delineated as a mineral resource.

Manitoba

The Wine Property

Prior to April 22, 2013, the Company held a 100% interest in the Wine Claim (comprised of the Wine and Wine 1 claims) located approximately 60 kilometres south of Flin Flon, Manitoba. The Wine claim is a high grade nickel-copper target. During fiscal 2007 and in fiscal 2008, the Company entered into option agreements to acquire up to 100% interest in two mineral property interests in the Province of Manitoba, the Wine claims and the Grand Nickel Project. In March 2006, the Company entered into an option agreement, subsequently amended, to acquire 100% interest in the Wine Claim, MB 3964 and Wine 1 Claim (the “Wine” claims), all located approximately 60 km southeast of Flin Flon, Manitoba. The Company earned its interest by making payments totaling $105,000 (paid) and issuing 20,000 common shares over a 48-month period (issued). The Company also incurred required exploration expenditures on the property of $5,000 annually for four years. On completion of these obligations, the property was subject only to a 2.0% NSR royalty payable to the optionor from the production of gold, silver and all base metals and other minerals. The Company had the right to reduce the NSR royalty to 1.0% by the payment of $1,000,000 to the optionor at any time up to and including the commencement of commercial production.

During the year ended March 31, 2014 the Company sold the Wine Claim Property to the optionor for the amount of $50,000 cash.

In October 2007, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire 100% interest in the Grand Nickel Project, being the Cedar 1, MB7355 and MEL 324B claims (the “Cedar” claims), located in the Thompson Nickel Belt, approximately 40 km north-west of the town of Grand Rapids, Manitoba. After a short exploration program, the Company determined that the property did not meet its expectations, returned the property to the optionor and recorded a write-down of acquisition costs of $34,250 in fiscal 2009. The Grand Nickel project was written off in the year ended March 31, 2009.

The Blueberry Property

In November 2009, the Company entered into an option agreement to acquire the Blueberry property from W.S. Ferreira Ltd. and the Company staked additional claims which have been appended to the option agreement. The property is located approximately 20 km north-east of Flin Flon, Manitoba. The option agreement provided for a cash payment of $100,000 ($40,000 paid) and the issuance of 40,000 shares (16,000 issued) over five years with a down payment of $10,000 (paid). The cash payments were to be made as follows: $10,000 on regulatory approval (paid), $10,000 on the first anniversary (paid), and $20,000 on each of the second (paid) to the fifth anniversary dates. The shares were to be issued as follows: 4,000 on regulatory approval (completed) and 4,000 on the first anniversary of regulatory approval (completed), and 0,000 common shares on each of the second (completed) to the fifth anniversary dates.

The Company was required to incur cumulative exploration expenditures totaling $30,000 following the date of regulatory approval, commencing with expenditures of $5,000 prior to the first anniversary date and a minimum of $5,000 annually by each anniversary date on or prior to the fifth anniversary. The total incurred to March 31, 2013 was $156,411. On completion of these obligations, the property will be subject only to a 2.0% NSR royalty payable to the optionor from the production of gold, silver and all base metals and other minerals. The Company had the right to reduce the NSR royalty to 1.0% by the payment of $1,000,000 to the optionor at any time up to and including the commencement of commercial production.

In November 2012, the Company elected not to make the required $20,000additional cash option payment and issue 8,000 common sharesshare issuance to the optionor. Title to the Blueberry Property has since been transferred to the optionor. In addition, title to the Blue 1 to Blue 4 claims which were staked following the optioning of the Blueberry Property have been assigned to the optionor as these claims were appended to the original option agreement.

Exploration Projects, British Columbia Properties

The Company has two early-stage exploration projects in British Columbia, Canada. The locations are shown on the map below, with details of the projects following.

Exploration activities on the Kaslo properties have been planned and carried out under the supervision of Dr. Derek McBride, P.Geo and is the Company’s “Qualified Person” for the purpose of NI 43-101, “Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects”.

Kaslo Property, British Columbia

Introduction

The Kaslo property is without known mineral resources and reserves and the proposedprevious exploration programs arewere exploratory in nature. In fiscal 2012, the Company wrote down the value of the property to $nil.

Property Location and Geology

The 100% owned property encompasses nine former high-grade silver-lead-zinc historic small scale mines located in southeastern British Columbia, Canada. The various mines operated at different times during the period from 1895 to 1966. The property currently consists of 7 modified grid claims, 13 crown grants, 8 reverted crown grants, 37 two-post claims and one mining lease of three units, for a total 160 units.

In October 2004 Agave commenced a diamond drill program on Kaslo. This two-hole drill program was designed to test the lateral and down dip extensions of the high grade silver mineralization found within the strongly faulted Silver Bear shear structure. Diamond drilling was suspended after attempts to drill through the highly mineralized fault zone were unsuccessful. The initial drill hole was abandoned at 34 metres when the drill proved incapable of coring the shear zone. A second steeper angled drill hole was successful in intersecting the hanging wall of the mineralized shear structure. However, the second hole did not penetrate the entire width of the shear zone and did not intersect the high-grade footwall mineralization.

Prior drilling by Agave in 1998 returned values up to 2,271 g/t silver over 0.51 metres within a 3.25 metre interval that assayed 390.05 g/t silver from drill hole 98SB-05. The highest silver values intersected in the previous drill program were obtained from the strongest part of the shear zone tested during that program. These step-out holes intersected what appears to be broader and more intense shearing that may be related to higher-grade silver values.

Location and Access

The 4,000-hectare property is located 12 km west of the town of Kaslo in southern British Columbia. Access to the property is via Highway 31A for seven km west from Kaslo, then 4.5 km southwest along Keen Creek Road to the property boundary. The property lies along the Keen Creek Road for approximately 10 km. Logging roads and numerous old mining roads and trails, some of which are heavily overgrown, bisect the property. Power lines come to within 4 km of the property boundary, and water is abundant throughout.

Physiography

Kaslo is located in an area of rugged mountainous terrain. Topography on the property is steep with elevations ranging from 1,050 metres along the Keen Creek valley to 2,200 metres on the Gold Cure ridge.

The Keen Creek valley runs along the northwest boundary of the property, with numerous tributaries crossing the property and emptying into Keen Creek. The major tributaries, from northeast to southwest are Ben Hur, Briggs, Klawala, Kyawats and Desmond Creeks.

History

Kaslo includes nine former, small mines, which were originally discovered and worked for high-grade silver ores during the heyday of the Slocan Mining Camp at the end of the 19th century. Intermittent exploration, development and production have taken place at various locations on the property since that time, most notably in the 1920s and 1950s. The Cork-Province Mine was consolidated in 1914 and was the longest-lived producer in the camp when it closed in 1966. Five former workings, the Silver Bear, Hartford, Gibson, Gold Cure, and Bismark are situated along the Gold Cure Shear zone, which has been traced northeast across the property for 7.1 km. Five additional workings, the Black Bear, Cork, Province, Dublin and Black Fox workings lie along the parallel 4.1 km long Cork Shear zone, located in the Keen Creek valley approximately 1 km north of the Gold Cure Shear zone. Both shears are open along strike to the north and at depth.

Geophysics

Since it acquired the property, AgaveCompany’s acquisition, the Company has completed 51.7 km of VLF-EM geophysical coverage over the mineralized Cork and Gold Cure Shear zones. The geophysical surveys clearly define the location and extent of the controlling shears, as they are very conductive by nature.

In 1999, a gravity geophysical survey was conducted over the Cork North zone to define which of the several limestone beds have the best potential to host massive sulphide mineralization. Targets generated by the gravity survey have not been drill tested.

Geochemistry

Soil geochemical surveys have been completed over the length of the Cork and Gold Cure Shear zones. Linear trends of anomalous values for silver, lead and zinc in soil have been found running coincident with the shear zones. Occasionally gold, arsenic, cadmium and other elements occur with the silver, lead and zinc anomalies.

Black Bear Group of Claims

For a description of Agave’s interest in this property, see “Kaslo Silver Property” under Item 4 above.

Location and Access

The Black Bear claims are located immediately north of and are contiguous with the Bismark Claims. The property is composed of a three-claim mining lease and three reverted, crown-granted mineral claims situated just 600 metres along strike to the north of the former Cork-Province Mine on the adjacent Bismark Claims. The Black Bear claims can be accessed through the Kaslo property, which is located 12 km west of the town of Kaslo in southern British Columbia. Access to Kaslo is via Highway 31A for 7 km west from Kaslo, then 4.5 km southwest along Keen Creek Road to the property boundary.

History

The property encompasses three former silver producers, the Mastodon, Liberty, and Black Bear workings. The Mastodon and Liberty workings were discovered and operated in the late 1890s. The Black Bear was probably discovered at the same time but the only government reports of this occurrence are from 1920 when the mine was rehabilitated to explore a 48-centimetre wide vein that yielded 2.74 g/t gold, 181.7 g/t silver, 15.0% lead and 3.6% zinc.

The Liberty and Mastodon workings were on adjacent crown grants that were initially worked in 1899. Workings consist of eight or more short adits and shafts that explore two or more fissure-vein lodes striking northeast and in part conforming with the structure of the host metasediments. Exploration completed by Agave in 1997 on the adjacent Bismark Claims suggests that the Black Bear workings are probably hosted by the same shear structure that hosts the Cork-Province Mine. The Liberty and Mastodon workings are believed to be on parallel structures.

Agave completed a preliminary program of geological mapping, geochemical surveys, VLF electro-magnetometre surveys, a reconnaissance gravity geophysical survey, excavator trenching and 110 metres of diamond drilling in three short holes over the Black Bear Claims in 1998 and 1999. The trenching program successfully encountered several small massive sulphide bodies that were tested with three short, wide spaced, diamond drill holes. Sulphides were primarily pyrite, arsenopyrite and sphalerite containing low-grade silver values.

Black Fox Claims

In June 1998, Agave purchased a 100% interest in the Black Fox Claims located near Kaslo, British Columbia. The property comprises three crown-granted mineral claims: the Daisy, Black Fox and California. The former Black Fox mine workings are located on the Daisy Claim, immediately adjacent to the Cork-Province area on Agave’s Bismark Claims. The claims lie on the southwest extension of the Cork Shear zone.

There was no material work carried out on the property in fiscal 2003 or 2004 as Agave did not have sufficient working capital to conduct a full-scale exploration program on the properties that make up Kaslo. As a result, in 2003, Agave wrote down deferred acquisition and exploration costs to a nominal carrying value of $1 to reflect the extended period of inactivity on the property. The claims remain in good standing and the property is considered a long-term asset of the Company. Exploration costs incurred since the year ended March 31, 2005, to March 31, 2008 of $162,099 have been expensed. Additional costs of $359 were expensed in fiscal 2009. The property was written down to $Nil during fiscal 2012.

Proposed Exploration

No significant exploration work is proposed for fiscal 2017.

Description

DuringThe Kootenay Lithium Project (the “Project”) includes two separate groups of mineral claims, the year ended March 31, 2014,Boulder property centered 10 km west of Revelstoke and the Company transferred titleBegbie property centered 12 km south of Revelstoke.

The Begbie property consists of 20 contiguous mineral claims that cover 1,732.85 hectares or 17.33 km2 of rugged alpine and subalpine terrane immediately north and east of the summit of Mount Begbie and along the ridge north of Mulvehill Creek (Figure 4-2). The claims cover a range of elevations from 980 m in steeply incised drainages up to 2,620 m near the summit of Mount Begbie. Bedrock exposure is excellent at higher elevations, but less so at lower elevations where steep slopes are generally heavily vegetated.

The Boulder property consists of 30 contiguous mineral claims that cover 2,278.12 hectares or 22.78 km2 of moderate alpine and subalpine terrane that extends from Clanwilliam Lake at the Trans-Canada Highway northward to the Goldsmithheight of land that comprises Boulder Mountain

Location and Lucky JackAccess

The Project is located in the Revelstoke Mining Division, near the city of Revelstoke in south-central British Columbia. The Project includes two groups of mineral claims, the Begbie property centered approximately 10 km south of Revelstoke, and the Boulder property centered approximately 10 km west of Revelstoke. The distance between the two properties is about 14 km. The Begbie property is situated on Mount Begbie, covers parts of BCGS mapsheet 082L.089, and is centered at Latitude 50°53’21.9” N and Longitude 118°14’2.3” W (or NAD83 UTM Easting 413208, UTM Northing 5638253).

item 5. Operating and financial review and prospects

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of Agavethe Company for the years ended March 31, 20162017 and 20152016 and the related notes thereto. Agave’s consolidatedThe Company’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB.

Overview

AgaveThe Company is a mineral exploration company with no producing properties and consequently has no current operating income or cash flow. All of Agave’sthe Company’s short to medium-term operating and exploration cash flow must be derived from external financing.

Critical accounting policies and changes in accounting policies

The preparation of financial statements requires management to establish accounting policies, estimates and assumptions that affect the timing and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. These estimates are based upon historical experience and on various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, and require judgment on matters which are inherently uncertain. A summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies isand critical accounting policies are set out in NoteNotes 2 and 3 of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the years ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, and 2015.respectively.

Recent accounting pronouncements

A summary of recent accounting pronouncements issued which may affect the Company in the future are set out in Note 2 (p) of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the years ended March 31, 20162017 and 2015.2016.

A. Operating Results

Year ended March 31, 2017 compared to year ended March 31, 2016

The net loss for the year ended March 31, 2017 (the “Current Year”) was $356,861 compared to a net loss for the year ended March 31, 2016 (the “Comparative Year”) of $111,593. The increase in net loss of $245,268 was primarily due to the following:

• Professional fees increased by $43,323 from $39,785 in the Comparative Year to $83,108 in the Current Year. The increase was primarily due to legal fees incurred with respect to the acquisition of the Kootenay Lithium Property, the Company’s Annual General Meeting, a potential transaction and legal advice on general matters.
• Shareholder communications increased by $9,977 from $28,879 in the Comparative Year to $38,856 in the Current Year. The increase was primarily due to costs associated with the Company’s name change, creation of a new website, news releases, and the Company’s annual general meeting.
• Stock-based compensation increased by $110,406 from $21,006 in the Comparative Year to $131,412 in the Current Year. Albeit the Company issued less stock options in the Current Year, the estimated fair value of the stock options granted in the Current Year was higher; hence, resulting in a higher expense.
• Gain on settle of debt decreased from $129,121 in the Comparative Year to $nil in the Current Year. The Company did not settle debts with shares during the year ended March 31, 2017.

The increases noted above were offset by decreases in other operating expense line items which were consistent with the Company’s activities and continued efforts to scale back and reduce overhead costs given the current and prolonged unfavorable market conditions to raise capital. Notable decreases were realized on the following expense items:

• Finance fees decreased by $25,000 from $25,000 in the Comparative Year to $nil in the Current Year.
• General administrative decreased by $11,705 from $43,796 in the Comparative Year to $32,091 in the Current Year.

Year Ended March 31, 2016 (“fiscal 2016”), Compared to Year Ended March 31, 2015 (“fiscal 2015”)

In fiscal 2016, Agave incurred a loss of $111,593, a per common share of $0.00, compared to an income of $1,658, or $0.00 per common share in fiscal 2015.

Exploration costs of $1,890 were recovered in fiscal 2016, compared to exploration costs of $1,465 in fiscal 2015, contributing to the loss/income in each year. The costs and recoveries in both years were related to the Kaslo project. The recovery in fiscal 2016 was a result of the reversal of costs charged in fiscal 2015.

Total expenses other than exploration costs and gain on sale of discontinued operations totaled $113,483 in fiscal 2016, compared to $405,122 in fiscal 2015. Significant differences between the levels of expenditures in the two fiscal years include the following:

Finance fees for the year ended March 31, 2016 were $25,000, compared to $Nil for the year ended March 31, 2015. This amount represents a non-refundable fee paid to a third party firm who had been hired in February, 2015 to complete a financing for the Company. This amount had been recorded as a deferred finance fee until Q3 2016 at which time it was recorded as an expense as it became obvious to the Company that the financing would not be completed.

General and administrative expenses, consisting of depreciation, office and administration, travel and conferences decreased from $76,951 to $43,796 in expenses. The decrease is primarily a result of decreased directors’ and officers’ liability insurance costs and reduced travel expenses.

Professional fees, which include legal, accounting and audit fees, decreased from $113,335 to $39,785 primarily as a result of reduced legal fees. In the year ended March 31, 2015 the Company incurred legal fees related to its Mexican subsidiary, with no comparable expenses in the year ended March 31, 2016. Further reduced legal fees related to the review of the Company’s US Annual Information Report (20-F).

Salaries and benefits decreased from $191,087 to $85,181 primarily due to a reduction in staff.

Shareholder communications increased from $20,786 to $28,879. The costs in both years are primarily associated with statutory listing costs, filing fees and news release dissemination.

Stock-based compensation for the year ended March 31, 2016 was $21,006, compared to $Nil for the year ended March 31, 2015. The Company granted, pursuant to its stock option plan and TSX Venture Exchange approval, 1,450,000 stock options to directors, officers and consultants of the Company at an exercise price of $0.07 per share, expiring on June 3, 2020. The fair value of the stock options granted has been calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model, based on the following assumptions: weighted average risk free interest rate of 1.01%, volatility factor of 126% and expected life of five years. There were no stock options granted in the year ended March 31, 2015.

During the year ended March 31, 2016 the Company settled all debts owing to officers and directors, with the exception of partial salaries payable to the President, by issuance of cash payments totaling $68,281 and by the issuance of 1,147,500 shares for a total of $22,950. These settlements resulted in a gain on settlement of debt of $129,121. There was no comparable gain in the year ended March 31, 2015.

Year Ended March 31, 2015 (“fiscal 2015”), Compared to Year Ended March 31, 2014 (“fiscal 2014”)

In fiscal 2015, Agave earned income of $1,658, a per common share of $0.00, compared to a loss $1,199,620, a loss of $0.06 per common share in fiscal 2014.

Exploration costs of $1,465 were incurred in fiscal 2015, compared to $40,107 in fiscal 2014, contributing to the loss in each year. Expenditures in both years were related to the Kaslo project.

Total expenses other than exploration costs and gain on sale of discontinued operations totaled $405,122 in fiscal 2015, compared to $766,569 in fiscal 2014. Significant differences between the levels of expenditures in the two fiscal years include the following:

General and administrative expenses, consisting of depreciation, office and administration, travel and conferences increased from $56,916 to $76,951 in expenses. Expenses in the year ended March 31, 2014 were reduced as a result of recoveries of previously recognized Quorum expenses.

Professional fees, which include legal, accounting and audit fees, decreased from $174,741 to $113,335 primarily as a result of increased legal fees related to the reorganization of the Company effective October 3, 2013.

Salaries and benefits decreased from $394,530 to $191,087 primarily due to the decrease in executive salaries upon the reorganization of the Company effective October 3, 2013 and the severances paid during the year-ended March 31, 2014 related to the reorganization.

Shareholder communications decreased from $95,860 to $20,786, due to the decreases in salary and services related to investor relations, and the decrease in advertising costs, filing costs and news release disseminated.

Agave conducted most of its exploration activities in Mexico and in Canada in fiscal 2015, and as such, the Company has foreign exchange risks associated with exploration in foreign jurisdictions. The Company had a foreign exchange loss of $2,963 in fiscal 2015, compared to a foreign exchange loss of $6,022 in fiscal 2014. The Company’s cash balances were primarily held in Canadian dollars with nominal funds held in United States dollars and in Mexican pesos.

B. Liquidity and Capital Resources

Financial Conditions for the year ended March 31, 20162017

The Company’s major source of funding has been the issuance of equity securities for cash, primarily through private placements to sophisticated investors and institutions. The Company has issued common shares in each of the past few years, pursuant to private placement financings and the exercise of warrants and options.

There is no assurance that the Company will be successful with any financing ventures. Please refer to Item 3 – Key Information – section D - Risk Factors in this document.

At March 31, 2016,2017, the Company had a working capital deficit of $237,139,$31,069, defined as current assets less current liabilities, compared with a working capital deficit of $355,003$237,139 at March 31, 2015.2016. The Company’s consolidated financial statements were prepared using IFRS applicable to a going concern. Several adverse conditions cast substantial doubt on the validity of this assumption – see “Going Concern” disclosure below. When the Company has unused cash, it primarily invests its unused cash in guaranteed investment certificates which are redeemable in full after 30 days with interest or in treasury bills. There have been no investments in commercial paper. Where the initial term of the guaranteed investment certificate is greater than 90 days, it is recorded as a short-term investment.

Operations for the year ended March 31, 2016,2017, have been funded primarily from loans and share subscriptions made by insiders, officers and directors.directors and through the issuance of equity.

Investing Activities

As at March 31, 2016, Agave2017, the Company has capitalized $Nil (2015$513,600 (2016 - $Nil). as acquisition costs of the Kootenay Lithium Project and represents the value of the shares issued to the vendors of the project.

Capital Resources

As discussed above, at March 31, 2016, Agave’s2017, the Company’s working capital deficit was $237,139$31,069 compared to a working capital deficit of $355,003$237,139 at March 31, 2015.2016. The Company’s continued operations are dependent upon the Company’s ability to obtain sufficient financing to carry on planned operations. The Company does not have sufficient working capital to meet its obligations in the ordinary course of business but is attempting to generate sufficient amounts of cash and cash equivalents in the short and long term, to maintain the Company’s operations and meet obligations by reviewing all options including the sale of one or more properties, a joint venture of one or more properties, or an equity financing. The Company will select whichever funding options are available and are in the best interest of the shareholders.

At March 31, 2016,2017, the Company had 31,981,55944,517,273 common shares issued and outstanding

Financing Activities

Further financing will be required for general and administrative costs. This could involve joint venture, equity financing, sale of assets, or other forms of financing.

Going Concern

At March 31, 2016,2017, the Company has a working capital deficit. Additional financing is required.

The Company has incurred operating losses since inception, has no source of operating cash flow, minimal income from short-term investments, and there can be no assurances that sufficient funding, including adequate financing will be available to explore its mineral properties and to cover general and administrative expenses necessary for the maintenance of a public company. The ability of the Company to arrange additional financing in the future depends in part, on the prevailing capital market conditions and mineral property exploration success. These factors cast substantial doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of, and classification of liabilities that would be necessary if the going concern assumption were not appropriate. Such adjustments could be material.

Plans for Fiscal 20172018

The Board of Directors has and will continue the review of all available strategic alternatives intended to maximize shareholder value.

It has not determined whether its mineral property interests contain mineral reserves that are economically recoverable. The Company’s continuing operations and the underlying value and recoverability of the amounts shown for mineral property interests are entirely dependent upon the existence of economically recoverable mineral reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to complete the exploration and development of the mineral property interests and on future profitable production or proceeds from the disposition of the mineral property interests.

Contractual Obligations in 20172018

See Item 5 (d) for a table of contractual obligations at March 31, 2016.2017.

Trend information

As a mineral resource exploration company, Agave’sthe Company’s activities are mainly in response to metal prices and the availability of equity financings. Historically Agavethe Company has strategically focused its exploration activities on potential silver and gold projects. The recent trend for metal prices has been somewhat volatile for gold and silver. The mineral exploration industry has been through a very difficult period with low prices for both precious and base metals over the period from 1999 to 2004. Beginning in 2004 prices for both gold and silver began a sustained increase in price that has largely persisted through mid-2012, at which time prices began to decline. However, during the period from 2004 and, in particular, from the 2008 financial crisis onward, such financing has been available periodically. The factors cited above have acted to restrict the availability of funding at certain times.

Agave’sThe Company’s Management and board of directors are not financial or commodity analysts and therefore cannot and should not forecast prices for silver and gold.metal prices. Management and the directors do monitor silver and goldthe metals industry trends, specifically demand supply data and believe that the silver and gold markets shouldmetals market may continue to experience positive fundamentals. As such Agavethe Company will continue to advance its properties, subject to available funds.

See the risk section for average, high and low gold and silver prices to the date of the filing of this Annual Report on Form 20-F.

B. Compensation and Discussion Analysis

Compensation of Executive Officers

“Named Executive Officer” (“NEO”) means each of the following individuals:

The Company had two NEOs during the year. The following disclosure sets out the compensation that the Board intended to pay, make payable, award, grant, give or otherwise provide to each NEO and director for the financial year ended March 31, 2016.2017.

Compensation of Directors and NEOs

The Company’s Corporate Governance and Compensation Committee (“CGCC”) has responsibility for reviewing compensation for the Company’s directors and senior management. The independent directors are encouraged to meet at any time they consider necessary without any members of management including the non-independent directors being present. The Company's auditors, legal counsel and employees may be invited to attend. The independent directors exercise their responsibilities for independent oversight of management through a strong CGCC. The Board has appointed Dr. Derek McBride as Chairman of the Corporate Governance and Compensation Committee to assist the Board in being effective, cohesive and independent from management.

To determine compensation payable, the CGCC reviews compensation paid for directors and NEOs of companies of similar size and stage of development in the mineral exploration industry and determines an appropriate compensation reflecting the need to provide incentive and compensation for the time and effort expended by the directors and senior management while taking into account the financial and other resources of the Company. In setting the compensation, the CGCC annually reviews the performance of the NEOs in light of the Company's objectives and considers other factors that may have impacted the success of the Company in achieving its objectives and financial resources.

The Company’s compensation policies and its stock option plan are intended to assist the Company in attracting, retaining and motivating directors, officers and employees of the Company and of its subsidiaries and to closely align the personal interests of such directors, officers and employees with those of the shareholders by providing them with the opportunity, through stock options, to acquire shares in the capital of the Company.

Option-Based Awards

The board of directors of the Company implemented a stock option plan, as amended (the “Plan”), effective September 23, 2013, which was approved by the TSX Venture Exchange and the shareholders of the Company on September 23, 2013, at the Company’s AGM on that date. The number of shares which may be issued pursuant to options previously granted and those granted under the Plan is a maximum of 2,723,500 shares of the Company. In addition, the number of shares which may be reserved for issuance to any one individual may not exceed 5% of the issued shares on a yearly basis or 2% if the optionee is engaged in investor relations activities or is a consultant.

In accordance with good corporate governance practices and as recommended by Canadian National Policy 51-201Disclosure Standards, the Company imposes black-out periods restricting the trading of its securities by directors, officers, employees and consultants during periods surrounding the release of annual and interim financial statements and at other times when deemed necessary by management and the Board. In order to ensure that optionees are not prejudiced by the imposition of such black-out periods, the Plan includes a provision to the effect that any outstanding options with an expiry date that falls during a management imposed black-out period or within five days thereafter will be automatically extended to a date that is ten trading days following the end of the black-out period.

The Plan provides that if a change of control (as defined therein) occurs, or if the Company is subject to a take-over bid, all shares subject to stock options shall immediately become vested and may thereupon be exercised in whole or in part by the optionees. The Board may also accelerate the expiry date of outstanding stock options in connection with a take-over bid.

The Plan contains a provision that, if pursuant to the operation of the plan's adjustment provisions, in respect of options granted under the Plan (the "Subject Options"), an optionee receives options to purchase securities of another company (the "New Company"), such new options shall expire on the earlier of: (i) the expiry date of the Subject Options; (ii) if the optionee does not become an eligible person in respect of the New Company, the date that the Subject Options expire pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Plan relating to expiration of options in cases of death, disability or termination of employment discussed in the preceding paragraph above (the "Termination Provisions"); (iii) if the optionee becomes an eligible person in respect of the New Company, the date that such new options expire pursuant to the terms of the New Company's stock option plan that correspond to the Termination Provisions; and (iv) the date that is one (1) year after the Optionee ceases to be an eligible person in respect of the New Company or such shorter period as determined by the Board.

The Plan allows the board to impose vesting provisions and provides that, unless otherwise specified at the time of grant, all options shall vest and become exercisable in full immediately upon grant of such options. However, as required by the policies of the Exchange, options granted to optionees performing Investor Relations Activities must vest in stages over 12 months with no more than ¼ of such options vesting in any three month period.

The purpose of the Plan is to allow the Company to grant options to directors, officers, employees and service providers, as an incentive for performance, and as an opportunity to participate in the success of Agave. The granting of such options is intended to align the interests of such persons with that of the shareholders. Options are exercisable over periods of up to ten years as determined by the board of directors of Agave and are required to have an exercise price no less than the market price as defined in the Plan prevailing on the day that the option is granted. Pursuant to the Plan, the board of directors may from time to time authorize the issue of options to directors, officers and employees of and consultants to Agave and its subsidiaries or employees of companies providing management services to Agave or its subsidiaries.

At March 31, 2016,2017, and at July 5, 2016,31, 2017, the maximum number of common shares which may be issued pursuant to stock options granted under the Plan is equal to 2,723,5001,650,000 and 2,763,500,2,550,000, respectively, of the issued and outstanding common shares at the respective dates. A total of 1,490,0001,650,000 stock options were outstanding at March 31, 20162017 and 1,450,0002,550,000 stock options were outstanding at July 5, 2016.31, 2017.

During the year ended March 31, 2016,2017, there were 1,450,0001,250,000 options granted. Nonegranted, 70,000 were exercised 167,500 expired and 170,000 were forfeited.1,020,000 expired. Subsequent to March 31, 2016,2017, there were 900,000 options were granted and none grantedwere exercised or exercised and 40,000 expired.

The board of directors generally grants options to corporate executives on the recommendation of the CGCC. As part of its annual work plan, the CGCC reviews, among other things, executive compensation and makes appropriate recommendations to the board regarding such compensation, including but not limited to the grant of options. Options may be granted at other times of the year to individuals commencing employment with the Company.

Notes:

Discussion

The Company accounts for stock options issued to employees at the fair value determined on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value of the options is recognized as an expense using the graded vesting method where the fair value of each tranche is recognized over its respective vesting period. When stock options are forfeited prior to becoming fully vested, any expense previously recorded is reversed.

Share-based payments made to non-employees are measured at the fair value of the goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, if it is determined that the fair value of the goods or services cannot be reliably measured. These payments are recorded at the date the goods and services are received.

Warrants issued are recorded at estimated fair values determined on the grant date using the Black-Scholes model. If and when the stock options or warrants are ultimately exercised, the applicable amounts of their fair values in the reserves account are transferred to share capital.

See “Option Based Awards” and “Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans” for further information on the Stock Option Plan.

The Company does not have Incentive Plan Awards, pursuant to which cash or non-cash compensation intended to serve as an incentive for performance (whereby performance is measured by reference to financial performance or the price of the Company’s securities) was paid.

Shareholder Rights Plan

Effective May 24, 2011, the Board of Agavethe Company adopted a Shareholder Rights Plan (the "Rights Plan"). The Rights Plan has been implemented by way of a shareholder rights plan agreement (the "Rights Plan Agreement") dated as of May 24, 2011 between the Company and Computershare Investor Services Inc., as rights agent. The Board adopted the Rights Plan to ensure, to the extent possible, that all shareholders of the Company are treated equally and fairly in connection with any take-over bid or similar offer for all or a portion of the outstanding common shares of the Company.

Background to the Rights Plan Agreement

The Rights Plan Agreement is designed to protect shareholders from unfair, abusive or coercive take-over strategies including the acquisition of control of the Company by a bidder in a transaction or series of transactions that may not treat all shareholders fairly nor afford all shareholders an equal opportunity to share in the premium paid upon an acquisition of control. The Rights Plan Agreement was adopted to provide the Board with sufficient time, in the event of a public take-over bid or tender offer for the common shares of the Company, to pursue alternatives which could enhance shareholder value. These alternatives could involve the review of other take-over bids or offers from other interested parties to provide shareholders desiring to sell the Company's common shares with the best opportunity to realize the maximum sale price for their common shares. In addition, with sufficient time, the Board would be able to explore and, if feasible, advance alternatives to maximize share value through possible corporate reorganizations or restructuring. The directors need time in order to have any real ability to consider these alternatives.

Potential Advantages of the Rights Plan Agreement

The Board believes that under the current rules relating to take-over bids and tender offers in Canada there is not sufficient time for the directors to explore and develop alternatives for the shareholders such as possible higher offers or corporate reorganizations or restructurings that could maximize shareholder value. Under current rules, a take-over bid must remain open in Canada for a minimum of 35 days. Accordingly, the directors believe the Rights Plan Agreement continues to be an appropriate mechanism to ensure that they will be able to discharge their responsibility to assist shareholders in responding to a take-over bid or tender offer.

In addition, the Board believes that the Rights Plan Agreement will encourage persons seeking to acquire control of the Company to do so by means of a public take-over bid or offer available to all shareholders. The Rights Plan Agreement will deter acquisitions by means that deny some shareholders the opportunity to share in the premium that an acquirer is likely to pay upon an acquisition of control. By motivating would-be acquirers to make a public take-over bid or offer or to negotiate with the Board, shareholders will have the best opportunity of being assured that they will participate on an equal basis, regardless of the size of their holding, in any acquisition of control of the Company.

The Rights Plan Agreement is not intended to prevent a take-over or deter fair offers for securities of the Company. The Board believes that the Rights Plan Agreement will not adversely limit the opportunity for shareholders to dispose of their common shares through a take-over bid or tender offer which provides fair value to all shareholders. The directors will continue to be bound to consider fully and fairly any bona fide take-over bid or offer for common shares of the Company and to discharge that responsibility with a view to the best interests of the shareholders.

Potential Disadvantages of the Rights Plan Agreement

Because the Rights Plan Agreement may increase the price to be paid by an acquirer to obtain control of the Company and may discourage certain transactions, confirmation of the Rights Plan Agreement may reduce the likelihood of a take-over bid being made for the outstanding common shares of the Company. Accordingly, the Rights Plan Agreement may deter some take-over bids that shareholders might wish to receive.

Term

The Rights Plan will remain in effect until termination of the annual meeting of shareholders of the Company in 2014 unless the term of the Rights Plan Agreement is terminated earlier. The Rights Plan may be extended beyond 2014 by resolution of shareholders at such meeting.

Issue of Rights

One right (a "Right") has been issued by the Company pursuant to the Rights Plan Agreement in respect of each Common Share outstanding at 4:00 p.m. (Pacific Time) onMay 24, 2011 (the "Record Time"). One Right will also be issued for each additional Common Share issued after the Record Time and prior to the earlier of the Separation Time (as defined below) and the Expiration Time (as defined in the Rights Plan Agreement).

Rights Exercise Privilege

The Rights will separate from the common shares to which they are attached and become exercisable at the time (the "Separation Time") which is 10 trading days following the date a person becomes an Acquiring Person (as defined below) or announces an intention to make a take-over bid that is not an acquisition pursuant to a take-over bid permitted by the Rights Plan (a "Permitted Bid").

Any transaction or event in which a person (an "Acquiring Person"), including associates and affiliates and others acting in concert, acquires (other than pursuant to an exemption available under the Rights Plan or a Permitted Bid) Beneficial Ownership (as defined in the Rights Plan Agreement) of 20% or more of the voting shares of the Company is referred to as a "Flip-in Event". Any Rights held by an Acquiring Person on or after the earlier of the Separation Time or the first date of public announcement by the Company or an Acquiring Person that an Acquiring Person has become such, will become void and the Rights (other than those held by the Acquiring Person) will permit the holder to purchase common shares at a 50% discount to their market price. A person, or a group acting in concert, who is the beneficial owner of 20% or more of the outstanding common shares as of the Record Time is exempt from the dilutive effects of the Rights Plan.

The issuance of the Rights is not dilutive until the Rights separate from the underlying common shares and become exercisable or until the exercise of the Rights. The issuance of the Rights will not change the manner in which shareholders currently trade their common shares.

Certificates and Transferability

Prior to the close of business on the earlier of the Separation Time and the Expiration Time, the Rights will be evidenced by a legend imprinted on certificates for common shares issued after the Record Time. Rights are also attached to common shares outstanding at the Record Time, although share certificates issued prior to the Record Time will not bear such a legend. Shareholders are not required to return their certificates in order to have the benefit of the Rights. Prior to the Separation Time, Rights will trade together with the common shares and will not be exercisable or transferable separately from the common shares. From and after the Separation Time and prior to the Expiration Time, the Rights will become exercisable, will be evidenced by Rights certificates and will be transferable separately from the common shares.

Permitted Bid Requirements

The requirements of a Permitted Bid include the following:

The Rights Plan allows for a competing Permitted Bid (a "Competing Permitted Bid") to be made while a Permitted Bid is in existence. A Competing Permitted Bid must satisfy all of the requirements of a Permitted Bid except that it must expire prior to the expiry of that Permitted Bid, subject to the requirement that it be outstanding for a minimum period of 35 days in accordance with applicable securities legislation.

Waiver and Redemption

If a potential offeror does not desire to make a Permitted Bid, it can negotiate with, and obtain the prior approval of, the Board to make a take-over bid by way of a take-over bid circular sent to all holders of voting shares on terms which the Board considers fair to all shareholders. In such circumstances, the Board may waive the application of the Rights Plan thereby allowing such bid to proceed without dilution to the offeror. Any waiver of the application of the Rights Plan in respect of a particular take-over bid shall also constitute a waiver of any other take-over bid which is made by means of a take-over bid circular to all holders of voting shares while the initial take-over bid is outstanding. The Board may also waive the application of the Rights Plan in respect of a particular Flip-in Event that has occurred through inadvertence, provided that the Acquiring Person that inadvertently triggered such Flip-in Event reduces its beneficial holdings to less than 20% of the outstanding voting shares of the Company at the time of the granting of the waiver by the Board. With the prior consent of the holders of voting shares, the Board may, prior to the occurrence of a Flip-in Event that would occur by reason of an acquisition of voting shares otherwise than pursuant to a take-over made by means of a take-over bid circular to holders of voting shares, waive the application of the Rights Plan to such Flip-in Event.

The Board may, at any time prior to the occurrence of a Flip-in Event, elect to redeem all but not less than all of the then outstanding Rights at a redemption price of $0.00001 per Right. Rights are deemed to be redeemed following completion of a Permitted Bid, a Competing Permitted Bid or a take-over bid in respect of which the Board has waived the application of the Rights Plan.

Board of Directors

Adoption of the Rights Plan does not in any way lessen or affect the duty of the Board to act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Company. The Board, when a take-over bid or similar offer is made, will continue to have the duty and power to take such actions and make such recommendations to shareholders as are considered appropriate. It is not the intention of the Board to secure the continuance of existing directors or officers to avoid an acquisition of control of the Company in a transaction that is fair and in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, or to avoid the fiduciary duties of the Board or of any director. The proxy mechanism of theBusiness Corporations Act(British Columbia) is not affected by the Rights Plan Agreement, and a shareholder may use his, her or its statutory rights to promote a change in the management or direction of the Company, including the right of shareholders holding not less than 5% of the outstanding common shares to requisition the Board to call a meeting of shareholders.

Amendment

The Company may, with the prior approval of shareholders (or the holders of Rights if the Separation Time has occurred), supplement, amend, vary or delete any of the provisions of the Rights Plan Agreement. The Company may make amendments to the Rights Plan Agreement at any time to correct any clerical or typographical error or, subject to confirmation at the next meeting of shareholders, make amendments which are required to maintain the validity of the Rights Plan Agreement due to changes in any applicable legislation, rules or regulations.

Existing Charter Provisions

The Notice of Articles and Articles of the Company do not contain any provisions intended by the Company to have, or, to the knowledge of the Board having, an anti-takeover effect. However, the power of the Board to issue additional common shares could be used to dilute the share ownership of person seeking to obtain control of the Company.

A copy of the Shareholder Rights Plan dated May 24, 2011 is attached as an exhibit to this Annual Report.

Agave’sThe Company’s original corporate constituting documents comprising Articles of Association and Memorandum are registered with the British Columbia Registrar of Companies under Corporation No. 71412. A copy of the Articles of Association and Memorandum then in effect were filed as an exhibit with Agave’sthe Company’s initial registration statement on Form 20-F. In 2004 the Company's existing Memorandum was replaced by a Notice of Articles. Subsequent amendments to the Company's Articles have been also filed as exhibits subsequent to the initial registration statement. On June 23, 2011, Agavethe Company adopted new Articles of Association, and these Articles are attached as an exhibit to this Annual Report.

Objects and Purposes

Agave’sThe Company’s Articles of Incorporation do not specify objects or purposes. Under British Columbia law, a British Columbia corporation has all the legal powers of a natural person. British Columbia corporations may not undertake certain limited business activities such as operating as a trust company or railroad without alterations to its form of articles and specific government consent.

Directors – Powers and Limitations

Agave’sThe Company’s articles do not specify a maximum number of directors (the minimum under British Columbia law for a public company is three). Shareholders at the annual shareholders meeting determine the number of directors annually and all directors are elected at that time. There are no staggered directorships. Under the British Columbia Business Corporations Act, (“BCA”) directors are obligated to abstain from voting on matters in which they may be financially interested after fully disclosing such interest. Directors’ compensation is not a matter on which they must abstain. Directors must be of the age of majority (18), and meet eligibility criteria including not being mentally infirm, an undischarged bankrupt, no fraud related convictions in the previous five years and a majority of directors must be ordinarily resident in Canada. There is no mandatory retirement age either under Agave’sthe Company’s Articles or under the BCA.

Directors’ borrowing powers are not generally restricted where the borrowing is in Agave’sthe Company’s best interests. Directors need not own any shares of Agavethe Company in order to qualify as directors.

The Articles specify the number of directors shall be the number of directors fixed by shareholders annually, or the number that are actually elected at a general shareholders meeting. Shareholders at the annual shareholders’ meeting determine the number of directors annually and all directors are elected at that time. Under the Articles the directors are entitled between successive AGMs to appoint one or more additional directors but not more than one-third of the number of directors fixed at a shareholders meeting or actually elected at the preceding annual shareholders’ meeting. Directors automatically retire at the commencement of each annual meeting but may be re-elected thereat.

A director or senior office who holds any office or possesses any property, right or interest that could result, directly or indirectly, in the creation of a duty or interest that materially conflicts with that individual's duty or interest as a director or senior officer, is required under the BCA to disclose the nature and extent of the conflict as required by the Business Corporations Act, and may be counted for the purpose of quorum requirements is required to abstain from voting on any directors' resolution to approve a contract or transaction in which he has a disclosable interest.

The new form of articles adopted by the Company in June 2011 ("Articles") update some of the terminology therein as well as incorporating some of the more flexible provisions of the BCA. The major changes from the existing Articles are: 1. certain changes to the Notice of Articles, Articles and share structure may be able to be made by directors' resolution or ordinary resolution of the Company's shareholders, in each case as determined by the directors. A more detailed description of this changes is provided below; 2. the directors may, by directors' resolution, approve a change of name of the Company without the necessity for shareholder approval; 3. shareholder meetings may be held by electronic means; 4. the quorum for shareholder meetings is changed from two shareholders or proxyholders present to one shareholder present in person or represented by proxy; 5. shareholder meetings may, if authorized by directors' resolution, be held in jurisdictions outside British Columbia; and 6. the Chairman of a directors' meeting does not have a casting vote, in the event of an equality of votes.

AgaveThe Company is subject to the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”) and compliance with Exchange policy may supersede powers granted to the Board pursuant to the Articles.

Descriptions of rights, preferences and restrictions attaching to each class of shares

Common Shares

AgaveThe Company has only one class of shares, common shares without par value of which an unlimited number are authorized and 31,981,55944,517,273 are outstanding as of July 5, 2016.31, 2017. All common shares rank pari passu for the payment of dividends and distributions in the event of wind-up.

Some of the significant provisions under British Columbia law and Agave’sthe Company’s Articles relating to the common shares may be summarized as follows:

Capital increases and Other Changes

The Company may alter its Notice of Articles, Articles and share structure in the following manner: 1. by directors' resolution or ordinary resolution of the shareholders of the Company, in each case as determined by the directors, (a) create one or more classes or series of shares and, if none of the shares of a class or series of shares are allotted or issued, eliminate that class or series of shares and alter the identifying name of any of its shares; (b) establish, increase, reduce or eliminate the maximum number of shares that the Company is authorized to issue out of any class or series of shares; (c) if the Company is authorized to issue shares of a class of shares with par value, decrease the par value of those shares or, if none of the shares of that class of shares are allotted or issued, increase the par value of those shares; (d) change all or any of its unissued shares with par value into shares without par value or vice versa or change all or any of its fully paid issued shares with par value into shares without par value; (e) create, attach, vary or delete special rights or restrictions for the shares of any class or series of shares, if none of those shares have been issued; (f) subdivide or consolidate all or any of its unissued, or fully paid issued, shares; (g) authorize alterations to the Articles that are procedural or administrative in nature or are matters that pursuant to the Articles are solely within the directors' powers, control or authority; and (h) alter the identifying name of any of its shares. 2. if the BCBCA does not specify the type of resolution and the Articles do not specify another type of resolution, by ordinary resolution of the shareholders otherwise alter its shares or authorized share structure and, if applicable, alter its Notice of Articles and, if applicable, alter its Articles accordingly.

Certain changes such as amalgamations, re-domiciling may also give rise to rights of dissent and appraised (the right subject to meeting certain conditions, to be paid the “fair value” determined in accordance with the BCA for their shares in cash if the matter is proceeded with).

Shares Fully Paid

All AgaveThe Company’s shares must, when issued be fully paid for in cash, property or services. The common shares, when validly issued are non-assessable and not subject to further calls for payment.

Redemption

AgaveThe Company has no redeemable securities authorized or issued.

Pre-emptive Rights

There are no pre-emptive rights under the Articles of the Company which provide a right to existing shareholders to participate in offerings of Agave’sthe Company’s securities.

Liquidation

All common shares of Agavethe Company are entitled to participate ratably in, if any, available for distribution assets in the event of a winding up or other liquidation of the Company.

No Limitation on Foreign Ownership

There are no limitations under Agave’sthe Compnay’s Articles or in the BCA on persons who are not citizens of Canada holding or exercising their voting rights as holders of common shares. (See also “Exchange Controls”)

Dividends

Dividends may be declared by the Board out of available assets and are paid ratably to holders of common shares. No dividend may be paid if Agavethe Company is, or would thereby become, insolvent.

Voting Rights

Each Agaveof the Company’s share is entitled to one vote on matters on which common shares ordinarily vote including the election of directors, appointment of auditors and approval of corporate changes. There are no cumulative voting rights applicable to Agave.the Company.

Shareholder Meetings

Shareholders’ meetings are governed by the Articles of Agavethe Company but many important shareholder protections are also contained in the Securities Act (British Columbia) and the BCA. The Articles provide that Agavethe Company will hold an annual shareholders’ meeting, will provide at least 21 days’ notice and will provide for certain procedural matters and rules of order with respect to the conduct of the meeting. Under British Columbia securities legislation and policies Agavethe Company is required to conduct advanced searches to facilitate delivery of meeting materials and proxy to beneficial shareholders. The form and content of information circulars and proxies and like matters are governed by the Securities Act (British Columbia) and the BCA. This legislation specifies the disclosure requirements for the proxy materials and various corporate actions, background information on the nominees for election for director, executive compensation paid in the previous year, unusual matters or related party transactions. AgaveThe Company must hold determination general meeting of shareholders within 15 months of the previous annual shareholders’ meeting. A quorum for a shareholders’ meeting is one shareholder present in person or by proxy.

Change in Control

Other then as disclosed under Item 6.B "Termination and Change of Control Benefits”, Agavethe Company does not have any agreements which are triggered by a take-over or other change of control, except that a takeover or change of control may result in the vesting of stock options previously granted. There are no provisions in its Articles triggered by or affected by a change in outstanding shares which gives rise to a change in control. There are no provisions in Agave’sthe Company’s material agreements giving special rights to any person on a change of control.

As discussed in Item 10.A, effective May 24, 2011, the Board of Agavethe Company adopted the Rights Plan which was implemented by way of the Rights Plan Agreement. The Board adopted the Rights Plan to ensure, to the extent possible, that all shareholders of the Company are treated equally and fairly in connection with any take-over bid or similar offer for all or a portion of the outstanding common shares of the Company. For more information on the Shareholder Rights Plan please see Item 10.A, Share Capital.

Insider Share Ownership Reporting

The articles of Agavethe Company do not require disclosure of share ownership. Share ownership of director nominees must be reported annually in proxy materials sent to Agave’sthe Company’s shareholders. There are no requirements under British Columbia corporate law to report ownership of shares of Agavethe Company but the Securities Act (British Columbia) requires disclosure of trading by insiders (generally officers, directors and holders of 10% of voting shares) within 5 days of the trade. Controlling shareholders (generally those in excess of 20% of outstanding shares) must provide 3 days advance notice of share sales.

Securities Act (British Columbia)

This statute applies to Agavethe Company and governs matters typically pertaining to public securities such as continuous disclosure, quarterly financial reporting, immediate disclosure of material changes, insider trade reporting, take-over protections to ensure fair and equal treatment of all shareholders, exemption and resale rules pertaining to non-prospectus securities issuances as well as civil liability for certain misrepresentations, disciplinary, appeal and discretionary ruling maters.

Other than the Shareholder Rights Plan, Agavethe Company is not party to any contracts that are material to its operations, business or assets, other than those entered into in the ordinary course of business for the two years preceding the date of this document.

The Company is not aware of any Canadian federal or provincial laws, decrees or regulations that restrict the export or import of capital, including foreign exchange controls, or that affect the remittance of dividends, interest or other payments to a non-resident holder of common shares, other than withholding tax requirements. Any such remittances to United States residents are generally subject to withholding tax, however no such remittances are likely in the foreseeable future. See “Taxation”, below.

There is no limitation imposed by the laws of Canada or by the charter or other constituent documents of Agavethe Company on the right of a non-resident to hold or vote the common shares, other than as provided in the Investment Canada Act (the “Investment Act”). The following discussion summarizes the material features of the Investment Act for a non-resident who proposes to acquire the common shares. It is general only, it is not a substitute for independent advice from an investor’s own advisor, and it does not anticipate statutory or regulatory amendments. AgaveThe Company does not believe the Investment Act will have any effect on it or on its non-Canadian shareholders due to a number of factors including the nature of its operations and Agave’sthe Company’s relatively small capitalization.

The Investment Act generally prohibits implementation of a “reviewable” investment by an individual, government or agency thereof, corporation, partnership, trust or joint venture (each an “entity”) that is not a “Canadian” as defined in the Investment Act (a “non-Canadian”), unless after review the Director of Investments appointed by the minister responsible for the Investment Act is satisfied that the investment is likely to be of net benefit to Canada. The size and nature of a proposed transaction may give rise to an obligation to notify the Director to seek an advance ruling. An investment in Agave’sthe Company’s common shares by a non-Canadian other than a “WTO Investor” (as that term is defined in the Investment Act and which term includes entities which are nationals of or are controlled by nationals of member states of the World Trade Organization) when Agavethe Company was not controlled by a WTO Investor, would be reviewable under the Investment Act if it was an investment to acquire control of Agavethe Company and the value of the assets of Agave,The Company, as determined in accordance with the regulations promulgated under the Investment Act, was over a certain figure, or if an order for review was made by the federal cabinet on the grounds that the investment related to Canada’s cultural heritage or national identity, regardless of the value of the assets of Agave.The Company. An investment in the common shares by a WTO Investor, or by a non-Canadian when Agave Agavethe Company was controlled by a WTO Investor, would be reviewable under the Investment Act if it was an investment to acquire control of Agavethe Company and the value of the assets of Agave,the Company, as determined in accordance with the regulations promulgated under the Investment Act, was not less than a specified amount, which for 2009 is Cdn$295 million. A non-Canadian would acquire control of Agavethe Company for the purposes of the Investment Act if the non-Canadian acquired a majority of the common shares. The acquisition of less than a majority but one-third or more of the common shares would be presumed to be an acquisition of control of AgaveThe Company unless it could be established that, on the acquisition, Agavethe Company was not controlled in fact by the acquirer through the ownership of the common shares.

The foregoing assumes Agavethe Company will not engage in the production of uranium or own an interest in a producing uranium property in Canada, or provide any financial service or transportation service, as the rules governing these businesses are different.

Certain transactions relating to the common shares would be exempt from the Investment Act, including:

                    i.                 an acquisition of the common shares by a person in the ordinary course of that person’s business as a trader or dealer in securities,

                   ii.                 an acquisition of control of AgaveThe Company in connection with the realization of security granted for a loan or other financial assistance and not for a purpose related to the provisions of the Investment Act, and

                 iii.                 an acquisition of control of AgaveThe Company by reason of an amalgamation, merger, consolidation or corporate reorganization following which the ultimate direct or indirect control in fact of Agave,The Company, through the ownership of the common shares, remained unchanged.

E. Taxation

All prospective investors are advised to consult their own tax advisors with respect to the specific tax consequences of purchasing the common shares of the Company.

Canadian Federal Income Tax Consequences for United States Residents

The following summarizes the material Canadian federal income tax consequences generally applicable to the holding and disposition of common shares by a holder (in this summary, a “U.S. Holder”) who, (a) for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Tax Act”), is not resident in Canada, deals at arm’s length with Agave,The Company, holds the common shares as capital property and does not use or hold the common shares in the course of carrying on, or otherwise in connection with, a business in Canada, and (b) for the purposes of the Canada-United States Income Tax Convention, 1980 (the “Treaty”), is a resident solely of the United States, has never been a resident of Canada, and has not held or used (and does not hold or use) common shares in connection with a permanent establishment or fixed base in Canada. This summary does not apply to traders or dealers in securities, limited liability companies, tax-exempt entities, insurers, financial institutions (including those to which the mark-to-market provisions of the Tax Act apply), or any other U.S. Holder to which special considerations apply.

This summary is based on the current provisions of the Tax Act including all regulations thereunder, the Treaty, all proposed amendments to the Tax Act, the regulations and the Treaty publicly announced by the Government of Canada to the date hereof, and the current administrative practices of the Canada Customs and Revenue Agency. It has been assumed that all currently proposed amendments will be enacted as proposed and that there will be no other relevant change in any governing law or administrative practice, although no assurances can be given in these respects. This summary does not take into account provincial, U.S., state or other foreign income tax law or practice. The tax consequences to any particular U.S. Holder will vary according to the status of that holder as an individual, trust, corporation, partnership or other entity, the jurisdictions in which that holder is subject to taxation, and generally according to that holder’s particular circumstances. Accordingly, this summary is not, and is not to be construed as, Canadian tax advice to any particular U.S. Holder.

Dividends

Dividends paid or deemed to be paid to a U.S. Holder by AgaveThe Company will be subject to Canadian withholding tax. Under the Treaty, the rate of withholding tax on dividends paid to a U.S. Holder is generally limited to 15% of the gross amount of the dividend (or 5% if the U.S. Holder is a corporation and beneficially owns at least 10% of Agave’sThe Company’s voting shares). AgaveThe Company will be required to withhold the applicable withholding tax from any such dividend and remit it to the Canadian government for the U.S. Holder’s account.

Disposition

A U.S. Holder is not subject to tax under the Tax Act in respect of a capital gain realized on the disposition of a Common Share in the open market unless the share is “taxable Canadian property” to the holder thereof and the U.S. Holder is not entitled to relief under the Treaty. A Common Share will be taxable Canadian property to a U.S. Holder if, at any time during the 60 months preceding the disposition, the U.S. Holder or persons with whom the U.S. Holder did not deal at arm’s length alone or together owned, or had rights to acquire, 25% or more of Agave’sThe Company’s issued shares of any class or series. If the shares of AgaveThe Company constitute taxable Canadian property to the holder, the holder may be subject to Canadian income tax on the gain. The taxpayer’s taxable capital gain or loss from a disposition of the share is the amount, if any, by which the proceeds of disposition exceed (or are exceeded by) the aggregate of the adjusted cost base and reasonable expenses of disposition. One-half of the capital gain is included in income and one-half of the capital loss is deductible from capital gains realized in the same year. Unused capital losses may be carried back three taxation years or forward indefinitely and applied to reduce capital gains realized in those years. It should be noted that Canada requires a withholding tax on the gross proceeds of a sale of taxable Canadian property by a non-resident. The withholding tax may be reduced on completion of a Clearance Certificate Request. If the disposition of the share is subject to tax in Canada, the non-resident must also file a Canadian income tax return reporting the disposition.

A U.S. Holder whose common shares do constitute taxable Canadian property, and who might therefore be liable for Canadian income tax under the Tax Act, will generally be relieved from such liability under the Treaty unless the value of such shares at the time of disposition is derived principally from real property situated in Canada. The value of Agave’sThe Company’s common shares is not currently derived principally from real property situated in Canada.

United States Tax Consequences

United States Federal Income Tax Consequences

Certain United States Federal Income Tax Consequences

This summary is for general information only and is not intended to be, nor should it be construed to be, legal or tax advice to any holder or prospective holder of common shares of AgaveThe Company and no opinion or representation with respect to the U.S. federal income tax consequences to any such holder or prospective holder is made.

The following is a discussion of certain material United States federal income tax consequences, under current law, generally applicable to a U.S. Holder of common shares of Agave.The Company. This discussion does not address all potentially relevant federal income tax matters and it does not address consequences peculiar to persons subject to special provisions of federal income tax law, such as those described below as excluded from the definition of a U.S. Holder. In addition, this discussion does not cover any state, local or non-U.S. tax consequences (see “Taxation – Material Canadian Federal Income Tax Consequences for United States Residents” above for Canadian tax consequences).Accordingly, we strongly recommend that holders and prospective holders of common shares of Agavethe Company consult their own tax advisors about the specific U.S. federal, state, local, and non-U.S. tax consequences to them of purchasing, owning and disposing of common shares of Agave,the Company, based upon their individual circumstances.

The following discussion is based upon the sections of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), Treasury Regulations, published Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) rulings, published administrative positions of the IRS and court decisions that are currently in effect as of the date hereof. Any or all of these authorities could be materially and/or adversely changed, possibly on a retroactive basis, at any time and are subject to differing interpretations. We have not requested, and will not request, a ruling from the IRS with respect to any of the U.S. federal income tax consequences described below, and as a result there can be no assurance that the IRS will not disagree with or challenge any of the conclusions we have reached and described herein.

As used herein, a “U.S. Holder” means a holder of common shares of AgaveThe Company who is (i) a citizen or individual resident of the United States as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (ii) a corporation created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or of any political subdivision thereof, (iii) an estate whose income is taxable in the United States irrespective of source or (iv) a trust (A) that is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and one or more U.S. persons have authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (B) that has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person. This summary does not address the tax consequences to special classes of U.S. Holders, such as tax-exempt organizations, qualified retirement plans, individual retirement accounts and other tax-deferred accounts, financial institutions, insurance companies, real estate investment trusts, regulated investment companies, broker-dealers, non-resident alien individuals, U.S. expatriates, persons or entities that have a “functional currency” other than the U.S. dollar, shareholders subject to the alternative minimum tax, shareholders who hold common shares as part of a straddle, hedging or conversion transaction, and shareholders who acquired their common shares through the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation for services. This summary is limited to U.S. Holders that own Agave common shares as capital assets, within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code, and that own (directly and indirectly, pursuant to applicable rules of constructive ownership) less than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of Agave stock entitled to vote. This summary does not address the consequences to a person or entity holding an interest in a shareholder or the consequences to a person of the ownership, exercise or disposition of any options, warrants or other rights to acquire common shares. In addition, this summary does not address special rules applicable to persons holding common shares through a partnership, or other pass-through entity. If an investor is a partner (or other owner) of a pass-through entity that acquires Agave common shares, the investor should consult its tax advisor regarding the tax consequences of acquiring, owning and disposing of Agave common shares.

Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations

United States income tax law contains rules governing “passive foreign investment companies” (“PFIC”) which can have significant tax effects on U.S. Holders of foreign corporations. Section 1297 of the Code defines a PFIC as a non-U.S. corporation if, for any taxable year, either (i) 75% or more of its gross income is “passive income,” which includes interest, dividends and certain rents and royalties or (ii) the average percentage, by fair market value (or, if the corporation is not publicly traded and either is a controlled foreign corporation or makes an election, by adjusted tax basis), of its assets that produce or are held for the production of “passive income” is 50% or more. AgaveThe Company appears to have been a PFIC for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014, and at least certain prior fiscal years. In addition, Agavethe Company may qualify as a PFIC in future fiscal years. Each U.S. Holders is encouraged consult a tax advisor with respect to how the PFIC rules affect such U.S. Holder.

If AgaveThe Company were a PFIC during any year and AgaveThe Company owns an indirect interest in any lower-tier PFICs during such year (a “Lower-Tier PFIC”), U.S. Holders will be treated as owning directly such proportionate amount (by value) of Agavesthe Company’s direct or indirect interests in the Lower-Tier PFICs. Accordingly, a U.S. Holder will be subject to the adverse tax consequences described below with respect to any excess distributions made by such Lower-Tier PFIC, any gain on the disposition by Agavethe Company of Agave’sthe Copany’s equity interest in such Lower-Tier PFIC treated as indirectly realized by a U.S. Holder, and any gain treated as indirectly realized by a U.S. Holder on the disposition of such U.S. Holder’s ownership of AgaveThe Company common shares which may arise even if the U.S. Holder realizes an overall net loss on such disposition. Such amount will not be reduced by Agave’sthe Company’s expenses or losses, but any income recognized may increase a U.S. Holder’s tax basis in Agavethe Company common shares. Furthermore, any gain realized on the direct or indirect disposition by a U.S. Holder of an interest in a Lower-Tier PFIC will not be able to be offset by any loss realized on the direct or indirect disposition of other lower-tier PFICs.

Accordingly, a U.S. Holder should be aware that such U.S. Holder could be subject to tax even if no distributions from Agavethe Company are received and no redemptions or other dispositions of Agavethe Company common shares are made.

In the absence of a timely election described below, if a U.S. Holder’s holding period in the AgaveCompany’s common shares includes any period during a taxable year of Agavethe Company in which Agavethe Company is or will be a PFIC, the rules described below in “The ‘No Election’ Alternative” generally apply to gain realized on a disposition of Agave common shares and certain distributions received with respect to Agavethe Company’s common shares. If certain requirements are met, a U.S. Holder may mitigate certain of the consequences of those rules by timely making an election to treat Agavethe Company as a “qualified electing fund” (a “QEF”), described below in “The QEF Election Alternative” or to mark its Agavethe Company’s common shares to market, described below in “The Mark-to-Market Election Alternative”.

The QEF Election Alternative

A U.S. Holder that makes a timely and effective QEF election (an “Electing Holder”) generally would not be subject to the rules discussed below in “The ‘No Election’ Alternative”. However, an Electing Holder will be subject to United States federal income tax on such Electing Holder’s pro rata share of Agave’sthe Company’s (a) net capital gain, which will be taxed as long-term capital gain to such Electing Holder, and (b) ordinary earnings, which will be taxed as ordinary income to such Electing Holder, in each case regardless of whether such amounts are actually distributed to such Electing Holder. However, an Electing Holder may, subject to certain limitations, elect to defer payment of current U.S. federal income tax on such amounts, subject to an interest charge. If such Electing Holder is not a corporation, any such interest paid will be treated as “personal interest,” which is not deductible.

An Electing Holder generally (a) may receive a tax-free distribution from Agavethe Company to the extent that such distribution represents “earnings and profits” that were previously included in income by the Electing Holder because of such QEF election and (b) will adjust such Electing Holder’s tax basis in the AgaveCompany’s common shares to reflect the amount included in income or allowed as a tax-free distribution because of such QEF election. In addition, an Electing Holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss on the sale or other taxable disposition of Agavethe Company’s common shares.

The procedure for making a QEF election, and the United States federal income tax consequences of making a QEF election, will depend on whether such QEF election is timely. A QEF election will be treated as “timely” if such QEF election is made for the first taxable year in the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the AgaveCompany’s common share in which Agavethe Company is a PFIC. If a U.S. Holder makes a QEF election after the first taxable year in the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the common shares in which Agavethe Company is a PFIC, then in addition to filing the QEF election documents, a U.S. Holder may elect to recognize gain (which will be taxed under the rules discussed below in “The ‘No Election’ Alternative”) as if the AgaveCompany’s common shares were sold on the qualification date (a “purging election”). The “qualification date” is the first day of the first taxable year in which Agave is a QEF with respect to such U.S. Holder. The election to recognize such gain can only be made if such U.S. Holder’s holding period for the AgaveCompany’s common shares includes the qualification date. By electing to recognize such gain, such U.S. Holder will be deemed to have made a timely QEF election. In addition, under very limited circumstances, a U.S. Holder may make a retroactive QEF election if such U.S. Holder failed to file the QEF election documents in a timely manner. If a U.S. Holder fails to make a QEF election for the first taxable year in the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the AgaveCompany’s common shares in which Agavethe Company is a PFIC, and does not make a purging election, such holder will not be treated as having made a “timely” QEF election and will continue to be subject to the special taxation rules discussed below in “The ‘No Election’ Alternative”.

A QEF election will apply to the taxable year for which such QEF election is made and to all subsequent taxable years, unless such QEF election is invalidated or terminated or the IRS consents to revocation of such QEF election. If a U.S. Holder makes a QEF election and, in a subsequent taxable year, Agavethe Company ceases to be a PFIC, the QEF election will remain in effect (although it will not be applicable) during those taxable years in which Agave is not a PFIC. Accordingly, if Agavethe Company becomes a PFIC in another subsequent taxable year, the QEF election will be effective and the U.S. Holder will be subject to the QEF rules described above during any such subsequent taxable year in which Agavethe Company qualifies as a PFIC.

A QEF election applies only to the non-U.S. corporation for which it is made. If Agavethe Company were a PFIC, a U.S. Holder likely would remain subject to the excess distribution rules discussed below in "The 'No Election' Alternative" in respect of its indirectly owned shares in each Lower-Tier PFIC regardless of a QEF election in respect of Agave,the Company, unless such U.S. Holder has made a QEF election in respect of such Lower-Tier PFIC.

Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the availability of, and procedure for making, a QEF election. A U.S. Holder cannot make and maintain a valid QEF election unless Agavethe Company provides certain U.S. tax information necessary to make such an election. In order for a U.S. Holder to make (or maintain) a valid QEF election, Agavethe Company must provide certain information regarding its net capital gains and ordinary earnings and permit its books and records to be examined to verify such information.

The Mark-to-Market Election Alternative

A U.S. Holder that holds “marketable stock” in a PFIC may avoid the imposition of the additional tax and interest described below by making a mark-to-market election in the first year of its holding period in such PFIC’s shares. Agave’sthe Company’s common shares will be marketable securities if they are regularly traded on a qualifying exchange that is either (i) a national securities exchange which is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission or the national market system established pursuant to the Exchange Act or (ii) any exchange or other market that the United States Treasury Department determines is adequate. AgaveThe Company believes that the TSX Venture Stock Exchange meets this test, and accordingly, provided that the common shares are regularly traded on the TSX Venture Stock Exchange, a U.S. Holder should be able to make a mark-to-market election with respect to the common shares if Agavethe Company is classified as a PFIC.

If a U.S. Holder were to make a timely mark-to-market election with respect to Agavethe Company’s common shares that it will own at the close of its taxable year, such electing U.S. Holder would include as ordinary income in that taxable year any excess of the fair market value of its Agavethe Company’s common shares as of the close of such year over its adjusted tax basis in the AgaveCompany‘s common shares. In addition, the U.S. Holder may claim an ordinary loss deduction for the excess, if any, of its adjusted tax basis in the common shares over the fair market value of the common shares at the close of the taxable year, but only to the extent of any prior net mark-to-market gains. An electing U.S. Holder’s tax basis in its Agavethe Company’s common shares will be adjusted to reflect any such income or loss. Any gain or loss on the sale of Agavethe Company’s common shares will be ordinary income or loss, except that any loss will be ordinary loss only to the extent of the previously included net mark-to-market gain. U.S. Holders considering the mark-to-market election should note that although it generally avoids the interest charge associated with PFICs, as described below, the application of the rules regarding indirect interests in Lower-Tier PFICs to the mark-to-market election is not entirely clear under current law. Accordingly, it may well be that a mark-to-market election would not be effective with respect to interests in a Lower-Tier PFIC. If the mark-to-market election is not effective with respect to interests in a Lower-Tier PFIC, then a U.S. Holder may be subject to the adverse tax consequences described below with respect to any interests in a Lower-Tier PFIC. An election to mark-to-market applies to the year for which the election is made and to subsequent years unless the PFIC shares cease to be marketable or the IRS consents to the revocation of the election. If Agavethe Company were to cease being a PFIC, a U.S. Holder that marked its common shares to market would not include mark-to-market gain or loss with respect to its Ordinary Shares for any taxable year that Agavethe Company was not a PFIC.

The “No Election” Alternative

If a U.S. Holder does not make a timely QEF or mark-to-market election (a “Non-Electing Holder”) and Agavethe Company is a PFIC, then special taxation rules will apply to (i) gains realized on the disposition of such U.S. Holder’s Agaveof the Company’s common shares and (ii) certain “excess distributions” (generally, distributions received in the current taxable year that are in excess of 125% of the average distributions received during the three preceding years or, if shorter, such U.S. Holder’s holding period) by Agave.the Company. Pursuant to these rules, a Non-Electing Holder generally would be required to pro rate all gains realized on the disposition of any of its Agavethe Company’s common share and all excess distributions on its Agavethe Company’s common shares over its entire holding period. All gains or excess distributions allocated to prior years of a U.S. Holder (other than any year before the first taxable year of Agavethe Company during such U.S. Holder’s holding period for which it was a PFIC) would be taxed at the highest tax rate for each such prior year applicable to ordinary income.

A Non-Electing Holder also would be liable for interest on the foregoing tax liability for each such prior year calculated as if such liability had been due with respect to each such prior year but had not been paid until the taxable year within which the gains or excess distributions have occurred. A Non-Electing Holder that is not a corporation would be required to treat this interest charge as “personal interest” which would be nondeductible. The balance of the gain or the excess distribution would be treated as ordinary income in the year of the disposition or distribution, and no interest charge would be incurred with respect to such balance.

Considerations if PFIC Rules Do Not Apply

Distribution on Common Shares of Agavethe Company

Subject to the rules discussed under PFIC above, in general, U.S. Holders receiving dividend distributions (including constructive dividends) with respect to common shares of Agavethe Company are required to include in gross income for United States federal income tax purposes the gross amount of such distributions, equal to the U.S. dollar value of such distributions on the date of receipt (based on the exchange rate on such date), to the extent that Agavethe Company has current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under United States federal income tax principles), without reduction for any Canadian income tax withheld from such distributions. Canadian tax withheld may be credited, subject to certain limitations, against the U.S. Holder’s federal income tax liability or, alternatively, may be deducted in computing the U.S. Holder’s federal taxable income by those who itemize deductions. The rules governing the foreign tax credit are complex and involve the application of rules that depend upon a U.S. Holder’s particular circumstances. Accordingly, a U.S. Holder is urged to consult its tax advisor regarding the availability of the foreign tax credit under its particular circumstances.

To the extent that distributions exceed Agave’sthe Company’s current and accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles, they will be treated first as a return of capital up to the U.S. Holder’s adjusted basis in the common shares causing a reduction in such U.S. Holder’s adjusted basis in the common shares (thereby increasing the amount of gain, or decreasing the amount of loss, to be recognized upon subsequent disposition of the common shares) and thereafter as gain from the sale or exchange of property. (discussed in further detail below under “Disposition of Common Shares of Agave”the Company”). However, Agavethe Company does not maintain calculations of earnings and profits in accordance with U.S. federal income tax principles, and U.S. Holders should therefore assume that any distribution with respect to the AgaveCompany’s common shares will constitute ordinary dividend income.

Subject to applicable exceptions with respect to short-term and hedged positions, certain dividends received by non-corporate U.S. Holders prior to January 1, 2013 from a “qualified foreign corporation” may be eligible for reduced rates of taxation. A qualified corporation includes a foreign corporation that is eligible for the benefits of a comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States that the U.S. Treasury Department determines to be satisfactory for these purposes and that includes an exchange of information provision. The U.S. Treasury has determined that the Treaty meets these requirements, and we believe that we are eligible for the benefits of the Treaty. Dividends received by U.S. Holders from a foreign corporation that was a PFIC in either the taxable year of the distribution or the preceding taxable year will not constitute qualified dividends. As discussed above in “Passive Foreign Investment Company,” Agavethe Company believes that it is a PFIC, and accordingly, dividends paid on our Agavethe Company’s common shares will not constitute qualified dividends.

In the case of foreign currency received as a dividend that is not converted by the recipient into U.S. dollars on the date of receipt, a U.S. Holder will have a tax basis in the foreign currency equal to its U.S. dollar value on the date of receipt. Generally any gain or loss recognized upon a subsequent sale or other disposition of the foreign currency, including the exchange for U.S. dollars, will be ordinary income or loss.

Disposition of Common Shares of Agavethe Company

Subject to the rules discussed under “Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations” above, in general, U.S. Holders will recognize gain or loss upon the sale of common shares of Agavethe Company equal to the difference, if any, between (i) the amount of cash plus the fair market value of any property received, and (ii) the shareholder’s tax basis in the common shares of Agave.the Company. Currently, preferential tax rates apply to long-term capital gains of U.S. Holders, which are individuals, estates or trusts. In general, gain or loss on the sale of common shares of Agavethe Company will be long-term capital gain or loss if the common shares are a capital asset in the hands of the U.S. Holder and are held for more than one year. Deductions for net capital losses are subject to limitations.

Gain or loss, if any, that a U.S. Holder realizes upon a sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of Agavethe Company common shares will be treated as having a United States source for U.S. foreign tax credit limitation purposes. Consequently, U.S. Holders may not be able to use any foreign tax credits arising from any Canadian tax imposed on the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of Agavethe Company’s common shares unless such credit can be applied (subject to applicable limitations) against tax due on other income treated as derived from foreign sources or unless an applicable treaty provides otherwise.

If a U.S. Holder receives any foreign currency on the sale of Agavethe Company’s common shares, such U.S. Holder may recognize ordinary income or loss as a result of currency fluctuations between the date of the sale of Agavethe Company’s common shares and the date the sale proceeds are converted into U.S. dollars.

United States Information and Backup Withholding Tax

Under current Treasury Regulations, dividends paid on Agave’sthe Company’s common shares, if any, generally will not be subject to information reporting and generally will not be subject to U.S. backup withholding tax. However, dividends and the proceeds from a sale of Agave’sthe Company’s common shares paid in the U.S. through a U.S. or U.S. related paying agent (including a broker) will be subject to U.S. information reporting requirements and may also be subject to U.S. backup withholding tax (currently at 26% rate), if a U.S. Holder does not provide its taxpayer identification number and otherwise comply with the backup withholding rules. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules are available to be credited against a U.S. Holder’s United States federal income tax liability and may be refunded by the IRS to the extent they exceed such liability, provided the required information is furnished to the IRS in a timely manner.

Under United States federal income tax law and regulations, certain categories of U.S. Holders must file information returns with respect to their investment in, or involvement in, a foreign corporation. Penalties for failure to file certain of these information returns are substantial. U.S. Holders of Agavethe Company‘s common shares should consult with their own tax advisors regarding the requirements are imposed of filing information returns. U.S. Holders should be aware that reporting requirements with respect to the holding of certain foreign financial assets, including stock of foreign issuers that is not held in an account maintained by certain types of financial institutions, if the aggregate value of all of such assets exceeds U.S. $50,000. IRS guidance suspends this annual filing requirement pending the release of new forms. Filings will eventually be required with respect to any year for which the obligation is suspended.

United States person who directly or indirectly own an interest in a PFIC to file an annual report with the IRS and failure to file such report could result in the imposition of penalties on such United States person. This requirement has been suspended for certain United States persons for tax years beginning after March 18, 2010 pending the release of a revised form. Filings will eventually be required with respect to any year in which the obligation is suspended.

U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the information reporting rules to Agavethe Company common shares and the application of these requirements to their particular situation.

Additional Tax on Investment Income

For taxable years beginning after December 31, 2012, U.S. Holders that are individuals, estates or trusts and whose income exceeds certain thresholds generally will be subject to a 3.8% Medicare contribution tax on unearned income, including, among other things, dividends on, and capital gains from the sale or other taxable disposition of, Agave’s common shares, subject to certain limitations and exceptions.

ITEM 11. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

A. Quantitative Information about Market Risk

The Company has not hedged its exposure to currency fluctuations. At March 31, 20162017 and 2015,2016, the Company iswas not exposed to currency risk through the following assets and liabilities denominated in U.S. dollars and Mexican pesos.

Based on the above net exposures at March 31, 2016, and assuming that all other variables remain constant a 10% appreciation or depreciation of the Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar would result in an increase/decrease of $Nil (2015 - $2,318), in the Company’s loss from operations, and a 10% appreciation or depreciation of the Canadian dollar against the Mexican Pesos would result in an increase/decrease of $Nil (2015 - $Nil in the Company’s loss from operations.risk.

B. Qualitative Information about Market Risk

Transaction Risk and Currency Risk Management

Agave’sThe Company’s operations do not employ financial instruments or derivatives. The Company has no long-term debt or source of revenue as the Company is in the resource exploration and development stage on its mineral property interests.

The Company is exposed to potential loss from various risks including commodity price risk, interest rate risk, currency risk, credit risk and liquidity risk.

The Company’s ability to raise capital to fund exploration or development activities is subject to risk associated with fluctuations in the market prices of gold and silver and the outlook for these metals. The Company does not have any hedging or other derivative contracts with respect to its operations.

Market prices for gold and silver historically have fluctuated widely and are affected by numerous factors outside of the Company’s control, including, but not limited to, levels of worldwide production, short-term changes in supply and demand, industrial and retail demand, central bank lending, central bank sales, investment demand and forward sales by producers and speculators. The Company has elected not to actively manage its commodity price risk.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant cash flow interest rate risk are financial assets with variable interest rates. The Company has no financial assets with this risk.

Financial assets and financial liabilities that bear interest at fixed rates are subject to fair value interest rate risk. The Company had no cash equivalents at March 31, 2016.2017. In respect of financial assets, the Company’s policy is to invest cash at floating rates of interest in short term cash GIC’s issued by a major Canadian chartered bank, in order to maintain liquidity, while achieving a satisfactory return. Fluctuations in interest rates impact on the value of cash equivalents. Interest rate risk is not significant to the Company as it has no cash equivalents at year end. As at March 31, 2015,2017, with other variables unchanged, a 1% change in the variable interest rate would have had an insignificant impact on the Company.

The Company is not exposed to the financial risk related to the fluctuation of foreign exchange rates. The Company operates in Canada and Mexico and a portion of its expenses are incurred in United States dollars and in Mexican pesos.only. A significant change in the currency exchange rates between the Canadian dollar and these currencies couldwill not have an effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a customer or third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations.

Given their short-term maturity, the fair value of cash and sundry receivables are based on going-concern assumptions and are recorded at their carrying value.

The Company’s financial assets comprise cash short-term investments, marketable securities and accounts receivable. These financial instruments potentially subject the Company to credit risk. The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk as at March 31, 20162017 is the carrying value of its financial assets. The Company manages credit risk by maintaining bank accounts with reputable banks and financial institutions and investing only in GIC’s issued by a major Canadian chartered bank. Cash is held at a major Canadian Chartered Bank and the risk of default is considered to be remote.

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they come due. The Company manages liquidity risk through the management of its capital structure and financial leverage as outlined in Note 1415 to the consolidated financial statements.

The Company attempts to manage its significant liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient cash and short-term investment balances. Liquidity requirements are managed based on expected cash flow to ensure there is sufficient capital to meet short-term obligations. The Company has been dependent on small private placement financings and advances from a major shareholder to maintain liquidity. All of the Company’s financial liabilities are due within one year.

C. Management of Capital

The Company primarily considers shareholders’ equity in the management of its capital. The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it based on funds available to the Company, in order to support exploration and development of mineral properties. The Board of Directors has not established quantitative capital structure criteria management, but will review on a regular basis the capital structure of the Company to ensure its appropriateness to the stage of development of the business.

C.         Management of Capital

The Company’s objectives when managing capital are:

The properties in which the Company currently holds an interest are in the exploration stage and the Company is dependent on external financing to safeguardexplore and take the Company’s abilityproject to continue as a going concern indevelopment. In order to pursue thecarry out planned exploration and development of its mineral property interests in Canada and Mexico and to maintain a flexible capital structure which optimizes thepay for administrative costs, of capital.

In the management of capital, the Company includeswill spend its existing working capital and attempt to raise additional amounts as needed.

Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the componentsrelative size of total shareholders’ equity. The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of its underlying assets. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company, may issue new shares, issue debt or acquire or dispose of assets.is reasonable.

In order to facilitate the management of capital and development of its capital requirements,mineral properties, the Company‘s management informs the Board of Directors as to the quantum of expenditures for review and approval prior to commencement of work. In addition, the Company prepares annual expenditure budgets that are updated as necessary depending on various factors, including successful capital deployment and general industry conditions.

Althoughmay issue new equity, incur additional debt, enter into joint venture agreements or dispose of certain assets. When applicable, the Company has been successful at raising funds in the past through the issuance of share capital, it is uncertain whether it will be able to continue this form of financing due to a number of factors beyond its control. The Company’s investment policy is to invest its excesshold cash in highly liquid short-term interest-bearing investments with maturities of 90 days or lessinterest bearing accounts at high credit quality financial institutions to maximize liquidity. In order to maximize ongoing development efforts, the Company does not pay dividends. The Company expects to continue to raise funds, from time to time, to continue meeting its capital management objectives.

There were no changes in the original date of acquisition, selected with regardsCompany’s approach to capital management during the year ended March 31, 2017 compared to the expected timing of expenditures from continuing operations.

year ended to March 31, 2016. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements

Exchange Rate Sensitivity

The Company is engaged in mineral exploration and related activities, including exploration, and reclamation. Changes in the price of foreign exchange rates could significantly affect the Company’s profitability and cash flows. See “Key Information” under Item 3 above, for a description of factors relating to foreign exchange and currency fluctuations. Its liabilities are all denominated in Canadian dollars.

Although, there were no exploration activities conducted in fiscalfiscals 2017 and 2016, exploration in fiscal 2015 was primarily conducted in Mexico, and its administrative operations are in Canada. The Company’s operations are affected by exchange rate risk, as the equity financings by the Company to date have been denominated in Canadian dollars. Excess cash is invested and may be affected by exchange rate risk for United States dollar expenditures. In the future, it will be necessary to do further equity or other forms of financing. The funds are usually received in Canadian dollars. Funds received in U.S. dollars will likely remain in U.S. dollars and be used for expenditures in U.S. dollars, to reduce exchange risk. The risk that the Company is subject to arises when expenses are incurred in U.S. dollars or other currencies, but primarily U.S. dollars, with large fluctuations in the Canadian-U.S. dollar exchange rate at that time of the transaction. The Company had an exchange gain of $336, compared to exchange losses were incurred in fiscal 2015 of $2,963 on cash expenditures of $0.68 million, an amount primarily related to administrative and exploration activities in Mexico.

item 15. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The issuer’s certifying officers are responsible for ensuring that processes are in place to provide them with sufficient knowledge to support the representations they are making. Investors should be aware that inherent limitations on the ability of certifying officers of an issuer to design and implement on a cost effective basis relating to the establishment and maintenance of disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting may result in additional risks to the quality, reliability, transparency and timeliness of interim and annual filings and other reports provided under securities legislation. As such, the certifying officer filing this annual report does not make any representations relating to the establishment and maintenance of controls and other procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in its annual filings, interim filings or other reports filed or submitted under securities legislation is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in securities legislation; and a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with the issuer’s IFRS.

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that material information relating to the Company, and its consolidated subsidiaries, is accumulated and communicated on a timely basis to appropriate members of the Company’s management, including the Company’s CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Disclosure controls and procedures apply to various disclosures, including reports filed with securities regulatory agencies.

Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial information. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that pertain to the preparation of financial statements prepared for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The evaluations of internal controls were conducted in accordance with the framework criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”), a recognized control model, and the requirements of National Instrument 52-109, Certification of Disclosures in Issuers’ Annual and Interim Filings.

An evaluation was carried out under the supervision of and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial report (as defined in rules adopted by the SEC) as at March 31, 2016.2017. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting were effective as at March 31, 2016.2017.

A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance with respect to the reliability of financial reporting and financial statement preparation. Accordingly, the Company’s management, including the CEO and the CFO, does not expect that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods and subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may change.

The Company will continue to periodically review its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting and may make modifications from time to time as considered necessary or desirable.

ITEM 16A. AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT

Composition of the Audit Committee

The members of the audit committee are Navin Varshney, Ronald LangRichard Haines, Warren Mirko and Robert Paul.Ernest Peters. The Company’s board of directors has determined that it has more than one “audit committee financial expert” on the Audit Committee:

A member of the audit committee is independent if the member has no direct or indirect material relationship with the Company. A material relationship means a relationship which could, in the view of the Company’s board of directors, reasonably interfere with the exercise of a member’s independent judgment. None of the current members of the audit committee have a material relationship with the Company.

At the date of this Annual Report on Form 20-F, the Company is in compliance with the audit committee composition rule set out in National Instrument 52-110Audit Committees(“NI 52-110”), the Canadian regulatory policy respecting audit committees, as a majority of the members of the audit committee are considered independent.

ITEM 16B. CODE OF ETHICS

The Company has adopted a code of ethics that applies to the Company’s CEO, the CFO and other members of senior management. The Company’s Code of Ethics is filed as an exhibit to this Form 20-F. There have been no amendments to the code of ethics and no waivers during the year ended March 31, 2016,2017, and to the date of filing of this Form 20-F.

ITEM 16C. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES

The following table discloses the aggregate fees billed for each of the last two fiscal years for professional services rendered by the Company’s audit firm for various services.

(1) “Audit-Related Fee” includes services that are traditionally performed by the auditor. These audit-related services include review of SEC documentation and audit services not required by legislation or regulation.

(2) Canadian Public Accounting Board Fees.

(3) Estimated audit fees for the year ended March 31, 2017

From time to time, management of the Company recommends to and requests approval from the audit committee for non-audit services to be provided by the Company’s auditors. The audit committee routinely considers such requests at committee meetings, and if acceptable to a majority of the audit committee members, pre-approves such non-audit services by a resolution authorizing management to engage the Company’s auditors for such non-audit services, with set maximum dollar amounts for each itemized service. During such deliberations, the audit committee assesses, among other factors, whether the services requested would be considered “prohibited services” as contemplated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and whether the services requested and the fees related to such services could impair the independence of the auditors. All of the non-audit related services provided by the Company’s audit firm were pre-approved by the audit committee.

During the year ended March 31, 2016,2017, all of the services described above under “Principal Accountant Fees and Services” under the captions “Audit-Related Fees”, “Tax Fees”, and “All Other Fees” were approved by the audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.
