The letter of intent calls for CD International to issue a three-year promissory note of $2 million and $13.4 million convertible preferred stock.

The conversion price will be determined based on the average closing price of CD International's common stock for the ten days immediately preceding the day of closing. The Company expects to complete the acquisition on September 30, 2014. The Company intends to file a Form 8-K/A disclosing ERM's financial statements for EM Resource on or before December 15, 2014. The Company is also working on the completion of its previous financial statements for fiscal 2013 and 2014 which it expects to file prior to that date.
EM Resource, founded in 2010, is engaged in international trading business in industrial commodities such as iron ore and energy commodities such as diesel fuel. According to unaudited financial statements, EM Resource generated revenues of approximately $30 million and $50 million in the calendar year of 2012 and 2013. EM Resource has approximately $11.5 million in shareholder equity as of June 30, 2014.
Commenting on the announcement, Dr. James Wang, Chairman and CEO of President of CD International said "We are very excited to enter into this letter of intent with EM Resource and are working diligently to close this acquisition by September 30, 2014. We believe this business combination will elevate our mineral business to a much higher level in fiscal 2015. Management of EM Resource has strong connections in South America and has shipped out over 1.2 million tons of iron ore in 2012 and 2013. We believe their business and shipping expertise in South America coupled with our projects and sourcing capabilities will have a very synergetic impact on our business expansion plans in South America."
