  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">As
  previously reported, on March&nbsp;6, 2008, PRB Energy,&nbsp;Inc. and its
  subsidiaries (&#147;PRB&#148;) filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of
  the United States Bankruptcy Code (the &#147;Bankruptcy Code&#148;) in the United States
  Bankruptcy Court for the District of Colorado (the &#147;Bankruptcy Court&#148;) (Case
  Number 08-12658 ABC).</font></p>
  
  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
  
  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Also
  as previously reported, on April&nbsp;25, 2008, PRB filed a motion with the
  Bankruptcy Court seeking an order authorizing PRB to enter into a
  Debtor-In-Possession Loan and &nbsp;Security Agreement (the &#147;DIP Agreement&#148;)
  with PRB Acquisition LLC (the &#147;Lender&#148;), an entity formed by Republic Financial
  Corporation and Nex Gen Resources Corp.&nbsp;&nbsp; On May&nbsp;19, 2008, the
  Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving the DIP Agreement with certain amendments
  to the DIP Agreement filed with the Bankruptcy Court on April 25, 2008.</font></p>
  
  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
  
  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Under
  the DIP Agreement, as amended, PRB may borrow up to $1.4 million, $1 million of
  which may be advanced only at the sole discretion of the Lender. PRB intends to
  use the $400,000 cash advance from the DIP Agreement to continue daily
  operations, preserve and maintain assets, fund general overhead and
  administrative expenses, and cover certain shortfalls between revenue and
  expenses.&nbsp; The $1 million loan, which may only be made in the sole
  discretion of the Lender, would be used for the development of PRB&#146;s properties.
  Loans under the DIP Agreement will be secured by substantially all of PRB&#146;s
  assets. The loan under the DIP Agreement will bear an interest rate of 18% per
  annum.&nbsp; The Lender will&#160; also
  receive reimbursement of its reasonable out-of-pocket fees relating to the DIP
  Agreement, a 3% commitment fee and a $100,000 due diligence fee as part of the
  DIP Agreement. The DIP Agreement will expire on June&nbsp;30, 2008.</font></p>
  
  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
  
  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">PRB
  and the Lender continue to negotiate definitive terms for a plan of
  reorganization and exit financing, on the terms&#160;
  previously outlined in the Form&nbsp;8-K filed on May&nbsp;2, 2008. However,
  the DIP Agreement, as amended, does not grant the Lender the exclusive right to
  negotiate a plan of reorganization or exit financing. There can be no assurance
  that PRB will be able to enter into a plan of reorganization or obtain exit
  financing on the terms previously described in the Form 8-K filed on May 2,
  2008 or at all.</font></p>

  Item 1.01       Entry into a Material Definitive
  Agreement
  The
  information set forth under Item 1.03 "Bankruptcy or Receivership" is
  incorporated into this Item 1.01 by reference.
  Item 1.03       Bankruptcy or Receivership.
  As
  previously reported, on March 6, 2008, PRB Energy, Inc. and its
  subsidiaries ("PRB") filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of
  the United States Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") in the United States
  Bankruptcy Court for the District of Colorado (the "Bankruptcy Court") (Case
  Number 08-12658 ABC).
  Also
  as previously reported, on April 25, 2008, PRB filed a motion with the
  Bankruptcy Court seeking an order authorizing PRB to enter into a
  Debtor-In-Possession Loan and  Security Agreement (the "DIP Agreement")
  with PRB Acquisition LLC (the "Lender"), an entity formed by Republic Financial
  Corporation and Nex Gen Resources Corp.   On May 19, 2008, the
  Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving the DIP Agreement with certain amendments
  to the DIP Agreement filed with the Bankruptcy Court on April 25, 2008.
  Under
  the DIP Agreement, as amended, PRB may borrow up to $1.4 million, $1 million of
  which may be advanced only at the sole discretion of the Lender. PRB intends to
  use the $400,000 cash advance from the DIP Agreement to continue daily
  operations, preserve and maintain assets, fund general overhead and
  administrative expenses, and cover certain shortfalls between revenue and
  expenses.  The $1 million loan, which may only be made in the sole
  discretion of the Lender, would be used for the development of PRB's properties.
  Loans under the DIP Agreement will be secured by substantially all of PRB's
  assets. The loan under the DIP Agreement will bear an interest rate of 18% per
  annum.  The Lender will  also
  receive reimbursement of its reasonable out-of-pocket fees relating to the DIP
  Agreement, a 3% commitment fee and a $100,000 due diligence fee as part of the
  DIP Agreement. The DIP Agreement will expire on June 30, 2008.
  PRB
  and the Lender continue to negotiate definitive terms for a plan of
  reorganization and exit financing, on the terms 
  previously outlined in the Form 8-K filed on May 2, 2008. However,
  the DIP Agreement, as amended, does not grant the Lender the exclusive right to
  negotiate a plan of reorganization or exit financing. There can be no assurance
  that PRB will be able to enter into a plan of reorganization or obtain exit
  financing on the terms previously described in the Form 8-K filed on May 2,
  2008 or at all.
  The
  above summary of the DIP Agreement is qualified in the entirety by reference to
  the DIP Agreement, a copy of which, in the form approved by the Bankruptcy
  Court, is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.
