Amendment of Credit Agreement with Nedbank Limited
Nord Resources Corporation (“Nord”), which is reactivating copper mining at the Johnson Camp Mine in Arizona, today announced that it has agreed with Nedbank Limited on amending its credit agreement originally entered into on June 17, 2007, pursuant to the terms of an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of June 30, 2008 (the “Amended Credit Agreement”).
The Amended Credit The amended credit agreement continues to provide Nord Resources with a US$25 million secured term-loan credit facility to help facilitate the construction, start-up, and operation of Nord’s Johnson Camp Mine, as well as a series of term loans to be funded from time to time by a syndicate of lenders in response to draw-down requests by Nord, with the aggregate amount of all term loans being US$25 million.
Under the Amended Credit Agreement, the end of the period during which the term loans will be available has been extended from June 30, 2008 to December 31, 2008, and the due date of the first payment has been changed from December 31, 2008 to March 31, 2009. In addition, the loan repayments must now be made in 15 equal quarterly installments rather than in 16 equal quarterly installments.
