June 10, 2016  Kenneth B. de Graaf, then President, CEO, and a director of the Company reported on behalf of the Board of Directors of the Company that it had been informed that its subsidiary in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Kundelungu Minerals, sprl (“KM”), would be given notice of an Event of Default by Traxys Europe S.A. (“Traxys”) with respect to the Loan Agreement between Traxys and KM, which demanded full repayment of the substantial principal and accrued interest owing. The Company announced that KM and the Company did not have sufficient cash resources to meet such a demand for payment.

June 15, 2016  Michael Velletta resigned his position as a director of the Company.

June 23, 2016  Simeon Tshisangama, a director of the Company announced that the Company had received the resignations of Kenneth B. de Graaf, Gerald Harper and Gavin Cooper as directors and officers of the Company and its subsidiaries leaving Simeon Tshisangama as the sole remaining director of the Company.

July 18, 2016   The Company announced that the TSX Venture Exchange  had halted the Company’s shares from trading because the Company had less than three directors. Pursuant to the B.C. Business Corporations Act, Mr. Tshisangama appointed John F. O’Donnell and David V. Mason to act as directors to fill the vacancies. Messrs. O’Donnell and Mason agreed to become directors on the understanding that the Company be adequately financed to carry on with its business model which was to continue with the development of its copper/cobalt mining project in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Since a financing could not be completed without the Company having the minimum number of directors to authorize the actions, Messrs. O’Donnell and Mason agreed to become directors to enable the Company to accomplish these objectives on the basis that, if a satisfactory interim financing was not completed within 90 days, they might resign as directors. Simeon Tshisangama was appointed Chief Executive Officer, and Daniel J. Gregory was appointed Chief Financial Officer of the Company.

Messrs. O’Donnell and Mason were subsequently surprised to learn the extent of the Company’s total insolvency, making it impossible to proceed with the planned rights offering. Instead of resigning, Messrs. O’Donnell and Mason agreed to stay on temporarily as directors to attempt to resolve the financial crisis of the Company. The initial hurdle was to keep the Company compliant with its financial reporting requirements, but since the Company had no funds to pay the auditors, this could not be completed. A Cease Trade Order (the “CTO”) was issued by the British Columbia Securities Commission on December 1, 2016 against the Company for failing to file its audited financial statements and related documents within the required time periods. The Company’s new CFO compiled the liabilities of the Company as best as he could, from the information he had been able to obtain from prior management. The Company’s major secured creditor had demanded payment of its outstanding debt, said to be the sum of USD 3,096,043 plus accrued and unpaid interest of USD 1,589,343 as at December 1, 2016. Additionally, it appeared that the Company had liability claims of approximately CDN 800,000 on a corporate level and USD 271,720 owing to contractors and labourers in the DRC. A former director had commenced a legal action against the Company for fees allegedly accruing to him prior to his resignation and while the Company was insolvent. The Company filed a defence to the action. The Company was in ongoing discussions with its major secured creditor for the purpose of attempting to resolve the Company’s financial difficulties. No resolution was viable without an agreement with the major creditor.

September 30, 2016 The Company’s application for a management cease trade order against the officers (MCTO) was approved and the MCTO was issued.
