Montreal
- Friday, March 1, 2013 – At a meeting of the Board of Director’s of Caldera Resources Inc. (the “Company” or “Caldera”) on
February 14, 2013, it was decided to approve the transfer of the Company’s shares from the TSX Venture Exchange (the TSX-V”) to the NEX exchange (the “NEX”). The TSX-V will be transferring the Company’s listing effective March 1, 2013, under the new symbol CDR.H. The Board’s decision to move to the NEX will allow the company to reorganize
its affairs under the more flexible rules of the NEX.
In support of the Company’s continued efforts in its restructuring, the Board also approved
that management develop and propose a “Share
for Debt” deal to present to its creditors. It is
anticipated that no new control person will be created and no share roll back
will take place in this process.
Caldera will continue to seek opportunities for
exploration and development of gold and base metal projects in Armenia and
Canada.
Update on Litigation with Global Gold
Corporation (“GBGD”)
While the Arbitration Award is final and not
appealable, under the United States Code, Title 9, article 10(a)(4) on arbitral
award can be vacated if arbitrators so “exceed
their powers” or “imperfectly
executed them” that a “mutual,
final and definite” award
is not possible. Caldera has filed
a motion to vacate the Partial Final Award under USC 9, Article 10(4)(a) and the
non-statutory ground under the doctrine of “manifest
disregard of the law”.
Caldera is also seeking to vacate the award and recuse the Arbitrator due to
his ex parte communications with Caldera.
A ruling by US District Court of the Southern
District of New York on our motion to vacate (overturn) the Arbitrator’s award of March 29, 2012 is pending.
Meanwhile, Caldera has presented a claim for US
$272,427.02 (the “Claim”)
representing the amounts it advanced to GBGD. The Arbitrator’s Partial Final Award (the “Award”) stated that GBGD must return all funds advanced by Caldera and
issue an 0.50% NSR on the Marjan Project, for every $1,000,000 Caldera invested
in the Marjan Project. Under the Award, Caldera is claiming an NSR of a minimum
of 0.50% on the Marjan Project. GBGD is contesting these claims even though the
Partial Final Award is non-appealable.
Assuming the US District Court upholds the
Arbitrator’s Award of March 29, 2012, GBGD can only take
legal possession of the property after it repays all funds advanced by Caldera
and issue an NSR in Caldera’s
favour. GBGD is contesting Caldera's position.

case (No. 50 180 T 00674 10) filed by Caldera against GBGD can be accessed on
