Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Employment Agreement for New CEO
On August 22, 2011, our Compensation Committee approved, and our independent directors ratified, an employment agreement with Ronald G. Stovash who has been appointed as our Chief Executive Officer.  We executed the employment agreement on August 23, 2011.  The effective date of the employment agreement will be August 28, 2011. See Item 5.02 below for a description of the terms of the employment agreement.
Agreement for Interest in Mining Concessions
Also on August 22, 2011, the Board of Directors approved and we entered into an agreement to purchase a 70% working interest in coal mining concessions located in the Republic of Colombia from Howerd Milton Cubides Botia (the "Assignor").  These concessions cover approximately 3,459 acres and are currently under operation by the Assignor.  The purchase price for the assignment of the 70% interest is approximately $4,000,000, of which $500,000 was paid on signing of the agreement and the balance of which will be due in increments over the next three years with the exact amount determined by the number of proven tons of reserves as determined by the exploration program.  There are certain outstanding liens on the concessions which the Assignor has agreed to satisfy on or before September 30, 2011.  In the event these liens are not released by that date, we have the option to terminate the agreement and the Assignor will be required return our initial payment.  Each party to the agreement has the right of first refusal to acquire the interest of the other party in the event of a proposed sale of that party's interest.  Capital and operating expenditures on the property will be paid by the Assignor through October 1, 2011, and thereafter operating funds will be provided by each party in proportion to its interest in the mining concessions, provided that we have agreed to fund the project in full and receive 50% of the proceeds allocable to the Assignor until the additional funds provided by us are repaid.  Either party may terminate the contract upon ninety days' notice.  In the event of termination, the terminating party will be required to assign that party's interest in the concessions to the other party and pay all outstanding payables to the other party.
Item 3.02
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
Effective August 23, 2011, we granted options to Mr. Stovash to purchase up to 500,000 shares of our common stock as a signing bonus for entering into the employment agreement with us.  See Item 5.02 below for a description of the terms of these options.  The options were granted under our 2010 Equity Incentive Plan.  The options were granted without registration under the Securities Act by reason of the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) and 4(6) of the Act, and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder.  Mr. Stovash was an accredited investor at the time of the grant.  No selling commissions were paid in connection with this option grant.
Effective August 25, 2011, we granted options to Peter b. Lilly to purchase up to 50,000 shares of our common for services as a director.  See Item 5.02 below for a description of the terms of these options.  The options were granted under our 2010 Equity Incentive Plan.  The options were granted without registration under the Securities Act by reason of the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) and 4(6) of the Act, and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder.  Mr. Lilly was an accredited investor at the time of the grant.  No selling commissions were paid in connection with this option grant.
