Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
As previously reported on January 26, 2009, KAL Energy, Inc. and its subsidiary Thatcher Mining Pte. Ltd. (the “Company”) entered into a Letter of Intent (the “LOI”) with Indo Mines Ltd. and Indo Energy Pty Ltd. (together “Indo”) on January 20, 2009 for the purpose of establishing and operating a joint venture to conduct phase II exploration on, and to develop and possibly put into production, the Company’s “Graha” coal concession in East Kalimantan, Indonesia .
On February 24, 2009, after Indo paid a total of $25,000 to the Company, Indo determined that it would not proceed from the LOI to a final joint venture. This decision terminated the LOI by its terms. Indo has not earned, nor has any ownership interest been created, in any of KAL’s projects as a result of the payments under the LOI. Indo advised the Company that it made this determination after reviewing several technical compliance issues surrounding the licenses held by the Company regarding the “Graha” coal concession, which in Indo’s view, may not be resolved in a timely manner to its satisfaction.
A press release announcing the termination of the LOI and the discontinuation of the efforts towards a joint venture is attached hereto as exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by this reference.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
As a result of the above contained in Item 1.02 and incorporated by reference herein, the Company has chosen to pursue alternate strategic relationships.
