Item 8.01 Other Events
On September 13, 2010, Tara Gold Resources Corp. announced that it had
entered into a tentative agreement with Tara Minerals Corp. which provided Tara
Minerals would acquire all of the outstanding shares of Tara Gold by exchanging
one share of Tara Mineral's common stock for two Tara Gold shares.
Following Tara Gold's announcement, the law firm of Umeda Robbins used Tara
Gold's public trading symbol to announce that it had commenced an investigation
into the potential acquisition of Tara Gold by Tara Minerals in an effort to
ensure fair value would be received by Tara Gold shareholders.
On September 20, 2010 Chris Columbo filed a lawsuit in the District Court
for Carson City Nevada, against Tara Gold, Tara Gold's officers and directors
and Tara Minerals. The essence of the lawsuit was to obtain the fairest price
for Tara Gold, whether from Tara Minerals or a third party. On October 25, 2010
the lawsuit against Tara Gold and other defendants was voluntarily dismissed.
Following the dismissal of the lawsuit, the attorneys for Tara Gold
contacted Mr. Columbo and learned that Mr. Columbo had not authorized the filing
of the lawsuit against Tara Gold.
Mr. Columbo supplied Tara Gold with an affidavit regarding his involvement
with the lawsuit, a copy of which is attached as an exhibit to this report.
