Material Contract
On January 13, 2022, Tanzanian Gold Corporation (the “Company”,
“we” or “us”) entered into a purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Lincoln Park Capital
Fund, LLC (“Lincoln Park”), which provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth therein,
we may sell to Lincoln Park up to $10,000,000 of our common shares (the “Purchase Shares”), from time to time over a 36-month
term from the Commencement Date (as defined below). Concurrently with the Purchase Agreement, we also entered into a registration rights
agreement with Lincoln Park (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which we agreed to take specified actions to
register, if necessary, the common shares that have been and may be issued to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement pursuant to a
registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In consideration for the execution
and delivery of the Purchase Agreement, we agreed to issue Lincoln Park 909,901 common shares as commitment shares. References to dollar
amounts shall mean United States dollars.
Following the satisfaction of certain conditions under
the Purchase Agreement and provided that the closing sales price is not below $0.10, we have the right, in our sole discretion, to present
Lincoln Park with a purchase notice (a “Purchase Notice”), directing Lincoln Park to purchase up to 125,000 common shares
per business day (as may be adjusted based on a closing price, a “Regular Purchase”), subject to a maximum commitment by Lincoln
Park of $500,000 per Regular Purchase (“Maximum Commitment”). Subject to the Maximum Commitment, the Regular Purchase may
be increased up to 200,000 common shares if the closing price is not less than $0.50 and up to 300,000 if the closing price is not less
than $0.75. The Purchase Agreement provides for a purchase price for the common shares under the Regular Purchase which is equal to the
lesser of: (i) the lowest sale price for our common shares on the NYSE American (or any nationally recognized successor thereto) on the
purchase date of such shares; and (ii) the average of the three lowest closing sale prices for our common shares on the NYSE American
(or any nationally recognized successor thereto) during the ten consecutive business days immediately preceding the purchase date of such
shares.
In addition, on any date on which we submit a Purchase
Notice to Lincoln Park, we also have the right, in our sole discretion, to present Lincoln Park with an accelerated purchase notice (an
“Accelerated Purchase Notice”) directing Lincoln Park to purchase our common shares (an “Accelerated Purchase”)
in an amount up to the lesser of: (i) 300% of the number of shares purchased pursuant to such Purchase Notice; and (ii) 20% of the total
number our trading volume at a purchase price (“Accelerated Purchase Price”) equal to 95% of the lower of (A) the Accelerated
Purchase date’s volume-weighted average price and (B) the closing sale price of a common share on such applicable Accelerated Purchase
date. We may also present Lincoln Park, on any business day on which an Accelerated Purchase has been completed, additional Accelerated
Purchase Notices as further described in the Purchase Agreement.
The aggregate number of shares that we can sell to Lincoln
Park under the Purchase Agreement may in no case exceed 50,981,000 common shares, including the Commitment Shares (which is equal to
approximately 19.99% of our common shares outstanding immediately prior to the execution of the Purchase Agreement (the “Exchange
Cap”), unless we obtain stockholder approval to issue common shares above the Exchange Cap or that such transactions contemplated
by the Purchase Agreement are exempt from the Exchange Cap limitation under applicable NYSE American rules; provided that at no time
shall Lincoln Park (together with its affiliates) beneficially own more than 4.9% of our issued and outstanding common shares.
The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations,
warranties, covenants, closing conditions and indemnification and termination provisions. Sales under the Purchase Agreement may commence
only after certain conditions have been satisfied (“Commencement Date”), which conditions include the registration statement
covering the sale of the common shares issued or sold by us to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement shall continue to be effective
under the Securities Act by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the delivery to Lincoln Park of a final prospectus covering the common
shares issued or sold by us to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement, approval for listing on NYSE American and the Toronto Stock
Exchange of the common shares issued or sold by us to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement, the issuance of the Commitment Shares
to Lincoln Park, and the receipt by Lincoln Park of a customary opinions of counsel and other certificates and closing documents. The
Purchase Agreement may be terminated by us at any time, at our sole discretion, without any cost or penalty. Lincoln Park has covenanted
not to cause or engage in any manner whatsoever, any direct or indirect short selling or hedging of our common shares. There are no limitations
on use of proceeds, financial or business covenants, restrictions on future financings (other than restrictions on our ability to enter
into variable rate transactions (excluding an At-The-Marketing Offering) described in the Purchase Agreement), rights of first refusal,
participation rights, penalties or liquidated damages in the Purchase Agreement. We may deliver Purchase Notices under the Purchase Agreement,
subject to market conditions, and in light of our capital needs from time to time and under the limitations contained in the Purchase
Agreement. Our net proceeds under the Purchase Agreement will depend on the frequency and prices at which we sell our common shares to
Lincoln Park. We expect that any proceeds we receive from such sales to Lincoln Park will be used primarily for capital expenditures,
continued exploration, working capital and other general corporate purposes.

of the Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement and, by its nature, is incomplete. Copies of the Purchase Agreement and
the Registration Rights Agreement are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 attached hereto, respectively. The foregoing descriptions of the
