Item 1.01.  Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On May 13, 2016, Coeur Mining, Inc. (the "Company") entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement (the "Agreement") with BMO Capital Markets Corp. (the "Sales Agent"). Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company may sell from time to time through the Sales Agent, shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.01 per share, having an aggregate offering price of up to $75,000,000 (the "Shares"). Sales of the Shares, if any, will be made by means of ordinary brokers' transactions through the facilities of the New York Stock Exchange or otherwise as may be agreed by the Company and the Sales Agent.
Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company may also sell Shares from time to time to the Sales Agent as principal for its own account at a price to be agreed upon at the time of sale. Any sale of Shares to the Sales Agent as principal would be pursuant to the terms of a separate terms agreement between the Company and the Sales Agent.
The Shares will initially be issued pursuant to the Company's automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 that is currently on file (Registration No. 333-210460).  Prior to the expiration of such registration statement, the Company will file a successor automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3.  Subsequent issuances of the Shares will be made pursuant to the Company's successor registration statement.
The Sales Agent and/or affiliates of the Sales Agent have, from time to time, performed, and may in the future perform, various financial advisory and commercial and investment banking services for the Company and its affiliates, for which they have received and in the future will receive customary compensation and expense reimbursement. Affiliates of the Sales Agent may be lenders under the Company's credit facility, either currently or in the future, and affiliates of the Sales Agent may hold the Company's securities. To the extent the Company uses proceeds from this offering to repay indebtedness under its credit facility or to repurchase or redeem its securities, such affiliates may receive proceeds from the offering. The Sales Agent and its affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of the Company's securities or financial instruments related to the Company's securities and may hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.
The summary of the Agreement in this report does not purport to be complete and is qualified by reference to the full text of the Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and is incorporated herein by reference.
