| Item 1.01 | Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement |
Nord Resources Corporation (the “Corporation”) has entered into a cathode sales agreement effective January 1, 2013, with Red Kite Master Fund Limited (“Red Kite”) for 100% of the copper cathode production from the Johnson Camp Mine, given the expiry of the long term copper cathode sales agreement between the parties that was in place from February 1, 2008 through December 31, 2012. The agreement runs through March 31, 2013 with renewable extensions by mutual agreement of both parties. Pursuant to the agreement, Red Kite will accept delivery of the cathodes at the Johnson Camp Mine, and pricing will be based on the COMEX price for high-grade copper on the date of sale. Red Kite is a large metals hedge fund and physical trader.
The Corporation is planning to file the agreement as an exhibit to its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
