The contemplated credit facility arranged will have a maturity of 48 months with EAS being able to terminate the loan at 36 months with a 2% penalty on remaining funds owed and will be secured by a universal deed of hypothec over the Sangihe project in Indonesia. The loan will have an interest rate of 8% and will consist of interest only payments for the first 18 months of its tenure. The loan, at the discretion of the lender(s) is convertible to 99.9 gold bullion as a vehicle of re-payment with 12 months advanced notice and contained within a formal offtake agreement.

The credit facility will be made available to EAS through the issuance in the United States of secured and convertible notes maturing at 48 months relying up rule 506 (c) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, 1933 as amended.

The financing described herein is contingent to market conditions and regulatory approval in United States and Canada.

Funds will be used to bring the Sangihe Gold Project into production, exploration and infill drilling of the Binebase / Bawone Corridor to increase both resources and reserves as well as general working capital.

The Company's has completed the Indonesian Feasibility Study (IFS) and AMDAL Environmental reports and once they are submitted and accepted by the Indonesian Mining Department (MEMR), construction of the mining facilities and infrastructure can begin at the Sangihe project. The company anticipates making a decision for gold processing and production to begin in 2018. The Indonesian Feasibility Study is not a Feasibility Study as defined by CIM as required by NI 43-101 but is required under Indonesian law in order to obtain a licence to construct a production facility. The IFS will be re-issued within 30 days as a Pre-Feasibility Study which will identify if all or part of the Mineral Resource may be converted to a Mineral Reserve at the time of reporting. The Company cautions readers that the any production decision made by the Company will not be based on a NI 43-101 feasibility study of mineral reserves that demonstrates economic and technical viability and as such, there may be involved increased uncertainty and various technological and economic risks outlined in the "forward looking statement" below.

Terry Filbert, President & CEO of East Asia Minerals Corp. commented that "this funding solution enables EAS to move forward aggressively on long term plans to develop the Sanghie property to generate revenue and positive cash flow for the Company which will enable us to finishing drilling our the Sangihe and increase production and mine life as well as having the recourses to devote to our Miwah project. This will put the company on a fast track to increase shareholder value in a non-dilutive manner".
