Note 5 – Line of Credit – Related Parties:

 

Effective December 31, 2012, we entered into a line of credit arrangement with John D. Gibbs, a significant investor, to facilitate timely cash flows for the Company’s operations.  The line of credit originally provided for a maximum balance of $250,000, accrued interest at 6% annually, and matured on December 31, 2014.

 

On December 31, 2013 we amended our credit agreement with Mr. Gibbs to increase the borrowing limit under the line of credit to $750,000.  All other terms of the credit agreement, including the interest rate and maturity date remained unchanged.

 

On December 31, 2014, we again amended the credit agreement to increase the borrowing limit to $900,000 and extend the maturity date to December 31, 2015.  As part of the 2014 amendment and the subsequent appointment of Dr. Pierce Carson as the President, CEO and Director of G+W effective June 1, 2015, we have pledged all of our 85% equity interest in G+W, which owns the Silver District properties, as security for all amounts outstanding under the credit agreement.

 

On December 31, 2015 we again amended the credit agreement to increase the borrowing limit to $1,000,000, which provides the Company an additional $112,500 available under the credit line at December 31, 2015.  The amendment also extends the maturity date to December 31, 2016. The line of credit amendment does not have an accounting impact.

 

During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, draws totaling $157,896 and $330,000, respectively, were made and were primarily used to fund working capital and certain obligations due to maintain our mining rights and properties.  At December 31, 2015 a total of $887,500 was outstanding under this line of credit.  In addition, a total of $102,211 of interest has been accrued on this obligation and is included in Interest payable - related parties on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2015.
