Item 8.01 Other Events
On February 23, 2012, Global Gold Corporation issued a press release announcing that in three final, non-appealable decisions issued and effective February 8, 2012 the Armenian Court of Cassation affirmed the July 29, 2011 Armenian trial court and December 12, 2012 Court of Appeals decisions which ruled that Caldera Resources, Inc.'s ("Caldera") registration and assumption of control through unilateral charter changes of the Marjan Mine and Marjan Mining Company, LLC were illegal and that ownership rests fully with Global Gold Mining, LLC (a wholly owned subsidiary of Global Gold Corporation).
The official versions of the Armenian Court decisions are available through http://www.datalex.am/. The Court of Cassation decision was also transmitted to all of the parties on February 21, 2012.
On November 17, 2011, in a separate arbitration proceeding in New York, the arbitrator issued an interim order precluding the sale or pledging of the shares. The same order also explicitly provided that it would not act as a stay on any other court proceedings; there is no arbitration order affecting either the Armenian judicial proceeding or enforcement thereof.
Global Gold reiterates that it assumes no responsibility for any information disseminated by Caldera Resources, Inc. prior or subsequent to the attached February 23, 2012 press release.
