Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On August 2, 2005, Western Mesquite Mines, Inc. (the “Borrower”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the registrant, Calumet Mining Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the registrant, and the registrant entered into a Supplemental Agreement (the “Supplemental Agreement”) amending certain terms of the Facility Agreement (the “Facility Agreement”) with RMB International (Dublin) Limited (the “Lender”) and RMB Resources Limited (together with the Lender, “RMB”). Pursuant to the terms of the Supplemental Agreement, RMB agreed that it would not demand that the Borrower pay the base repayment amount otherwise due on July 31, 2005, and that the Borrower will make such payment on October 30, 2005. In consideration of the payment deferral, the registrant paid $50,000 to the Lender.
In addition, the Supplemental Agreement amended the Facility Agreement by providing that a default under the Facility Agreement shall occur if, prior to the final repayment date under the Facility Agreement, the preliminary merger agreement between the registrant and Romarco Minerals, Inc. is terminated, either the registrant or Romarco announces that the merger is not proceeding or a definitive merger agreement between the registrant and Romarco is not entered into before September 15, 2005.
