ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT
Dhanoa Minerals Ltd. (the “Company”) executed a Share Sale Agreement (“Agreement”) made effective January 23, 2007, in which it acquired an eighty percent (80%) ownership of Promenasa, S.A. (“Promenasa”), an Ecuadorian mining company for $2,400,000 (U.S.) and for shares of the restricted common stock of the Company. Additionally, the Company agreed to loan $7,300,000 to Promenasa for upgrading the mines. The effective date of the Agreement is January 23, 2007.
The Company has made a payment of $1,000,000 and is required to make a second payment of $1,400,000 within five (5) months of closing for the purchase price.
The Company will loan $7,300,000 to Promenasa within six months after the closing for the purpose of upgrading the mines and mill owned by Promenasa; and for additional equipment. The Company made its first loan to Promenasa in the amount of $1,300,000 and will make payments of $1,000,000 every thirty days for the next six months. The loans will be secured by a mortgage and liens covering all of the assets of Promenasa. The loan is due on demand, however, the loan is to be repaid only from cash surpluses generated from mining production by Promenasa. Repayment of the loan ranks in priority ahead of any dividend or distribution payments to the shareholders of Promenasa. The loan does not carry interest.
Promenasa is the owner and the co-operator of the Bonanza, Mollopongo, and Guanache gold mines (Bonanza Group Mines). The Bonanza Group Mines are producing gold mines and a mill, located in the sector Paradise, Pueblo Nuevo of the Canton Ponce Enriquez, County of the Azuay in Ecuador. The Company intends to increase the gold production of the mines by upgrading their equipment, facilities and production technology. The Company will appoint Invictacorp, S.A. as the joint operator of the mine.
On September 23, 2006, the Company signed a letter stating their intent to acquire, subject to due diligence, an 80% interest in Minera Paraiso Minelparsa, S.A. (“Paraiso”). Paraiso is an operating gold mining company located in southern Ecuador. The Company placed $500,000 (US) in escrow with Overseas Mining, S.A. to secure their right to acquire Paraiso. Upon completion of due diligence however, the Company has decided to abandon the acquisition of Paraiso.
Overseas Mining, S.A. has agreed to deposit the $500,000 (US) held in escrow into Promenasa’s bank account in Panama City, Panama. This deposit will be credited toward Dhanoa’s loan obligation to Promenasa.
