Eloro Resources Reschedules Shareholder Meeting
On August 30, 2010, Eloro and Megastar jointly announced that they had reached an agreement in principle to enter into a business combination to consolidate 100% ownership of the Simkar project in Eloro by Eloro issuing 70,000,000 Eloro shares to the shareholders of Megastar. Completion of the transaction is subject to usual terms and conditions for such a transaction, including completion and execution of a definitive agreement, receipt of all required regulatory and security holder approvals and no material adverse changes occurring in the financial condition of either company. Depending on the structure of the proposed business combination which is finally decided upon, it may or may not be necessary for Eloro to obtain approval of its shareholders.
The date for the rescheduled Annual and Special Meeting of shareholders has not yet been definitively determined, but is anticipated to be before the end of October.
Eloro and Megastar are in the second year of an Option and Joint Venture Agreement that provides Eloro with the option to earn a 50% interest in Simkar by completing $4 million in exploration work, paying Megastar $350,000 and issuing 4.5 million shares of Eloro to Megastar over 3 years. Eloro has met its Year 1 commitments, including incurring exploration costs of minimally C$750,000 pursuant to the Option Agreement with Megastar.
