Convertible Note Payable and Short Term Loan | 3. Convertible Note Payable and Short Term Loan a. On November 27, 2009, Dominion Minerals Corp. (the “Company”) entered into and closed on a Convertible Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) to sell to non-US persons the convertible note due 2010 (the “Note”) in the aggregate principal amount of $2,000,000 and warrants to purchase up to 10,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), with an exercise price of $0.15 per share for a total purchase price of $2,000,000. The Note matures one year after the date of issuance. The Note pays interest at a rate of 3-Month LIBOR plus 2.0% per annum, which is payable at maturity, and is convertible into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price equal to $0.10 per share (the “Conversion Price”). The Conversion Price is subject to adjustment for certain events, including the dividends, distributions or split of the Company’s Common Stock, or in the event of the Company’s consolidation, merger or reorganization. In the event of a conversion, accrued interest shall be automatically converted into common stock. In addition, the Company has the right to prepay the entire outstanding principal due under the Notes upon a three business day notice. The Company’s obligations under the Loan Agreement and the Note are secured by the pledge of 5,000,000 shares of Cuprum Resources Corp., a corporation organized under the laws of the Republic of Panama (“Cuprum”), owned by the Company pursuant to a Pledge Agreement dated as of November 30, 2009 by and among the Company, Cuprum and the investor.
