SALT LAKE CITY, UT -- 03/16/10 -- Golden Eagle International, Inc. (MYNG) reported today that it has transferred control of its Bolivian subsidiary operations to an unaffiliated, Swiss corporation (the "Swiss corporation").
The Swiss corporation has paid Golden Eagle $112,000 in Bolivia, and has also agreed to pay $200,000 to satisfy various Golden Eagle obligations in Bolivia; to assume certain Golden Eagle obligations in Bolivia in an estimated amount of $200,000; and to provide $50,000 directly to Golden Eagle in the United States.
In addition, the Swiss corporation will pay Golden Eagle a 3% net smelter return of up to $3 million. The net smelter return will be payable on a quarterly basis if and when mineral production is achieved from the mining concessions owned by the Bolivian subsidiary.
Golden Eagle has agreed to indemnify the Swiss corporation regarding any other past debts and obligations that are not part of the agreement between the parties if those obligations are not the product of social or political issues. The Swiss corporation has agreed to indemnify Golden Eagle against future debts and obligations, and has further agreed to make available to Golden Eagle certain former Bolivian employees of Golden Eagle and certain records to assist Golden Eagle to comply with its reporting obligations.
Although Golden Eagle's Bolivian assets and operations were once the primary focus of the company, starting in 2008 Golden Eagle has focused its operations primarily within the United States. Golden Eagle considered a number of factors when evaluating its options with respect to its Bolivian operations, including:
The re-election for a new 5-year term in December 2009 of Bolivia's current administration, which has proven to be unsupportive of U.S. investment in Bolivia, and the continuing negative political and social environment relative to U.S. companies;
Golden Eagle's continuing difficulties in meeting its financial and other obligations due to all of the above factors.
Golden Eagle's CEO, Terry C. Turner, stated, "Given all of the circumstances, we believe this is a very advantageous outcome for our company." Mr. Turner continued, "We have had a long, and often challenging, association with Bolivia. The time has come for us to focus our efforts and resources on developing our interests in north-central Nevada and the recovery of just compensation from our litigation with Yukon-Nevada Gold Corp. regarding its breach of our operating contract for the Jerritt Canyon gold mill north of Elko, Nevada."
Blane Wilson, Golden Eagle's Chief Operating Officer (COO), said, "With the transfer of control of our Bolivian operations, and the restructuring of our Company, we believe we are now in a position to more fully realize the potential of our 4,000 tpd Gold Bar gold mill, and to seek out other mining and milling opportunities that may enhance our shareholders' value."
