Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement
Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
Effective October 2, 2012, the Registrant issued a $750,000 Promissory Note ("the Note") to Tangiers Investors, LP ("Tangiers", or “the Lender”). The consideration will be received by the Registrant in tranches of $50,000 no less than bi-weekly, by mutual consent. The Principal Sum due to the Lender shall be prorated based on the consideration actually paid by the Lender plus any accrued interest, such that the Registrant is only required to repay the amount funded and the Registrant is not required to repay any unfunded portion of the Note.
The Note has a maturity date of twenty four (24) months from the Effective Date of each tranche. The Note shall accrue interest at a rate of 7% per annum on each $50,000 tranche independently from other tranches. Unless repaid in cash, the Lender shall have the right to convert all or part of the outstanding and unpaid Principal Sum and accrued interest into shares of fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock of the Registrant. The Conversion Price shall be the undiscounted volume weighted average price (VWAP) on the day of conversion, subject to a floor price of $0.0129 per share, and a ceiling price of the undiscounted VWAP on the date prior to each tranche received by the Registrant. In addition, upon conversion, 125,000 5-year warrants for each $50,000 in Consideration received shall be issued, at an exercise price of 125% of the Conversion Price of each tranche, as applicable. There is no penalty for prepayment, with prepayment subject to the consent of the Lender.
The proceeds of this Note shall be used for mining projects and general working capital.
The Note referred to above (and the shares of common stock underlying them) is exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
The above described executed Note is attached hereto and incorporated by reference as Exhibit 10.1.
