On October 15, 2013, the Sweetwater County Commissioners approved the issuance of a $34.0 million Sweetwater County, State of Wyoming, Taxable Industrial Development Revenue Bond (Lost Creek Project), Series 2013 (the “Sweetwater IDR Bond”) to the State of Wyoming, acting by and through the Wyoming State Treasurer, as purchaser. On October 23, 2013, the Sweetwater IDR Bond was issued and the proceeds were in turn loaned by Sweetwater County to Lost Creek ISR, LLC pursuant to a financing agreement dated October 23, 2013 (the “State Bond Loan”). The State Bond Loan calls for payments of interest at a fixed rate of 5.75% per annum on a quarterly basis commencing January 1, 2014. The principal is payable in 28 quarterly installments commencing January 1, 2015 and continuing through October 1, 2021. The State Bond Loan is collateralized by all of the assets at the Lost Creek Project. As a condition of the financing, earlier loan facilities with RMB Australia Holding Ltd (“RMBAH”) together with certain construction equipment loans were paid off with the funding proceeds from the State Bond Loan.

 

On June 24, 2013, the Company entered into a $20.0 million First Loan Facility with RMBAH. The initial $20.0 million was drawn and repaid during 2013. An amendment to the First Loan Facility allowed for $5.0 million to be redrawn. This was done on December 19, 2013 for the acquisition of Pathfinder. On March 14, 2014, the loan was amended to change the interest rate, extend the loan maturity date to March 31, 2016 and increase the current loan to $10.0 million which included an additional line of credit of $3.5 million as a result of the completion and results of the Technical Report (NI 43-101) on the newly acquired Shirley Basin Project. On March 14, 2014, the Company also drew down an additional $1.5 million on its First Loan Facility.  On September 19, 2014, the Company drew down the $3.5 million line of credit.  The amended interest rate is approximately 8.75%. Principal payments of $0.81 million are due quarterly.  The line of credit is renewable until March 31, 2016.

 

Deferred loan fees includes legal fees, commissions, commitment fees and other costs associated with obtaining the various financings. Those fees amortizable within 12 months of June 30, 2015 are considered current.  The current and long-term deferred loan fees have been offset against the related liabilities in accordance with recently approved ASU 2015-03 which we have elected to adopt early in these financial statements See note 3.
