![Alturas Minerals Corp. update on Callejones project and US$100,000 convertible loan agreements](https://www.minenportal.de/media/goldseiten-news.jpg)
On August 17, 2015, Ancorp notified Alturas that it will terminate its Option Agreement on the Callejones property, originally signed on May 16, 2014. As part of this transaction, during September 2015, Ancorp and Alturas signed an amended agreement where the terms of the Original Note, with a face value of $100,000 plus accrued interest of $15,000, will now expire on May 16, 2016 (the "Amended Note"). The Amended Note carries an annual interest rate of
15% and is deferrable, at the option of Alturas, until May 16, 2017.
Under the terms of the Amended Note, Ancorp is allowed to request at any time during the term of this agreement to convert the Amended Note and the accrued interest into shares of the Company at a price of CDN$0.02 until the loan reaches maturity. The conversion price is however restricted, as the Original note was, to a TSX-V minimum price requirement of $0.05.
