OTHER EVENTS. On May 13, 2004, Intrepid Technology and Resources, Inc., ("the Company"), completed a Purchase Agreement with the Magic Valley Energy Coalition ("the Coalition") to buy out the Coalition's one-third (1/3) share of ownership in the Magic Valley Energy Company, LLC ("MVEC"). This purchase makes MVEC a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Coalition was formed in 2001, by a group of Idaho business and agricultural leaders who desired to promote economic development via renewable and alternative energy projects in their region, with particular emphasis on development of ethanol and biodiesel production. In 2002, the Company and the Coalition teamed together forming MVEC in order to bring together the engineering, management and business capabilities to execute alternative energy projects. This wholly owned subsidiary is based in Magic Valley, making it eligible to secure federal grants, loan guarantees, and other assistance aimed at stimulating rural economies that are available only to rural small business entities. The purchase price was for $20,000 of the Company's common stock based on a 30-day average closing price of $.0786 per share. This transaction is less than the requirements for a significant acquisition whereby the total value of this purchase is less than 10% of the total assets of the Company.
