Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On July 25, 2014, Vista Gold Corp. (“Vista”), entered into an amending agreement (the “Second Amending Agreement”) to its previously announced amending agreement made on January 30, 2014 and extended to July 31, 2014 (the “First Amending Agreement”) together with the debt transfer agreement made as of October 16, 2013 (the “Original Agreement”) between Vista and RPG Structured Finance S.á.R.L (the “Purchaser”) which, among other things, provides for the acquisition by the Purchaser of the non-interest bearing indebtedness of Desarrollos Zapal, S.A. de C.V. to Vista in the amount of US$20,090,528.43. 

 

The First Amending Agreement postponed the deadline for the second (and final) US$6.0 million payment (the “Subsequent Payment”) by the Purchaser to Vista from January 30, 2014 to July 31, 2014 in consideration for payment by the Purchaser to Vista of an additional US$0.25 million due on the extended payment deadline date (the “First Extension Consideration”).       Vista and the Purchaser have agreed to an additional six month extension of the due date of the Subsequent Payment to January 30, 2015 (the “Second Extension”).  The Purchaser will pay Vista US$0.25 million as consideration for the Second Extension (the “Second Extension Consideration”).  Vista expects to receive US$0.5 million (comprising the First Extension Consideration and the Second Extension Consideration) by July 31, 2014.

 

The Original Agreement was amended as follows:

 

Concurrently with the execution of this Second Amending Agreement, the Purchaser shall wire to Vista funds in the amount of US$500,000 (such payment being the First Extension Consideration and the Second Extension Consideration) in accordance with the wire instructions set out in Schedule “A”.

Recital B of the Original Agreement is amended so that the reference to “July 31, 2014” is deleted and “January 30, 2015” is substituted in its place.

The definition of “Subsequent Payment Date” in Section 1.1 of the Original Agreement is amended so that the reference to “July 31, 2014” is deleted and “January 30, 2015” is substituted in its place.

Section 2.2(b) of the Original Agreement is amended so that the reference to “plus US$250,000” is deleted.

Section 5.1(a) of the Original Agreement is amended so that the reference to “July 31, 2014” is deleted and “January 30, 2015” is substituted in its place.

No other provisions of the Original Agreement were amended. This summary of the material terms of the Second Amending Agreement are qualified in their entirety by the Second Amending Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.
