Item 1.01     Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On April 2, 2011, Henan Province Pingdingshan Hongli Coal & Coke Co., Ltd. (“Hongli”), through which all of the Registrant’s business operations are conducted, entered into a loan agreement with Bairei Trust Co., Ltd. (the “Lender”) to borrow 360 million Renminbi (“RMB”). Pingdingshan Hongyuan Energy Science and Technology Development Co., Ltd. (“Hongyuan”), the Registrant’s wholly-owned subsidiary in the People’s Republic of China and through which the Registrant controls Hongli by means of contractual arrangements, and Jianhua Lv, the Registrant’s chief executive officer, were both made parties to the loan agreement as guarantors for Hongli’s obligations thereunder.

Under the loan agreement, Hongli shall repay RMB 180 million on of the loan principal on April 2, 2013, and the remaining RMB 180 million on April 2, 2014 (each an “Installment” and collectively the “Installments”). Interest is fixed at 6.3% per annum per Installment, payable as follows: (a) 1.5% of the outstanding principal balance of each Installment as of June 20, 2011, 2012 and 2013, respectively, payable on or before each such date; and (b) the remaining 4.8% calculated on a daily basis commencing on the date each Installment is made available to Hongli and payable quarterly on the 20th day of the last month of each quarter until the due date of the Installment. Hongli may repay the first Installment in full after one and half years, and the second Installment after two and half years, provided that interest paid to the Lender prior to any such repayment shall not be refunded to Hongli, and provided further that if Hongli prepays an Installment without the Lender’s prior consent, Hongli shall remain obligated for the interest on such Installment through its due date.

In connection with the loan agreement, Hongli also entered into a security deposit payment agreement with the Lender, pursuant to which Hongli agrees to remit to the Lender RMB 150,000 as security deposit, which amount may be deducted by the Lender as part of Hongli’s interest obligation.

As guarantors for the foregoing loan, Hongyuan and Mr. Lv separately entered into a guarantee agreement with the Lender, guaranteeing the full performance by Hongli of its obligations under the loan agreement, including such fees and expenses as the Lender may incur to enforce such performance. The guarantee shall terminate two years from the due date of the second Installment.

Hongli intends to use the proceeds of the loan to fund the on-going construction of its new coking facility and to increase its working capital for future operations.

Except as pursuant to the foregoing agreements, the Registrant, its subsidiaries and Hongli (including their respectively officers and directors) do not have any relationship with, nor are they related to or affiliated with, the Lender and its officers and directors.
