Item 8.01. Other Events.
On November 30, 2007, Thorium Power, Ltd. (the “Company”) entered into a consulting and strategic advisory services agreement (the “Agreement”) with a foreign government-owned entity. The Agreement provides that the Company will assist in the development of a roadmap as the first phase of a feasibility study for a prospective program to deploy civilian nuclear power plants within the foreign country. The roadmap will include recommendations related to timelines, organizational structure and priorities for subsequent phases of the program.
This first phase of the feasibility study, which is expected to be completed in 15 work weeks, corresponds to professional fees of $3.8 million USD. Expenses, which are capped at 20% of professional fees will be reimbursed at cost. The agreement calls for a $5 million USD initial payment at the start of this first phase, which will be credited to professional fees and expenses. Any remaining portion of the initial payment after the completion of the first phase will be applied toward professional fees and expenses in future work to be mutually agreed by the Parties.
The scope of the services under the agreement have been defined in consultation with appropriate authorities in the US government in compliance with all applicable U.S. export controls. The Company intends to communicate additional details about the client relationship once certain governmental steps are completed in both countries relating to potential additional work.
The Company was selected after a detailed technical review of the Company’s fuel designs by independent nuclear experts, as well as an extensive evaluation of the Company’s experience within the global nuclear industry and its expertise in non-proliferation issues.
