The facility also provides the Company with a series of call options struck at A$2,100 an ounce for 4,000 ounces of gold per month over the same timeframe, allowing Crocodile Gold to participate on the upside of the gold price above A$2,100 for half of the ounces hedged.

The facility is guaranteed by the Company and secured against the shares of the Sellers, which own the mining assets of Crocodile Gold located in Australia, and a security interest in all of the assets and properties of the Sellers. Ounces associated with the gold swap agreement represent less than 40% of the forecasted production over this period, with the remaining 60% planned to be sold at prevailing spot prices. The Company believes this approach will de-risk its growth strategy while offering significant exposure to increasing gold prices.

Crocodile Gold intends to use the proceeds of the credit facility to repay a portion of the bridge loan facility provided by Luxor Capital Group in connection with the completion of the acquisition by Crocodile Gold of the Fosterville and Stawell mines located in Victoria State, Australia through the acquisition of all of the shares of Northgate Australian Ventures Corporation Pty Ltd. from AuRico Gold Inc., which was completed on May 4, 2012, while the remainder of the bridge loan facility is to be repaid from cash on hand. The balance will be used for capital expenditures in respect of projects expected to contribute to the Company’s growth strategy.
