For the three months ended May 31, 2013

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Passport Potash Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on August 11, 1987. The Company’s corporate jurisdiction is the province of British Columbia, Canada. The Company has been engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties since 2007. The Company’s shares are listed on the TSX-Venture Exchange (“TSX-V”).

The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. They do not include all information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. However, except as disclosed herein, there has been no material change in the information disclosed in the notes to the financial for the year ended February 28, 2013. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended May 31, 2013, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or the entire year. For further information, these unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended February 28, 2013 included in the Company’s Form 10-K.

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) which contemplates the realization of assets and discharge of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company is in the exploration stage. It has not generated operating revenues to date, and has accumulated losses of $50,292,181 since inception. The Company has funded its operations through the issuance of capital stock and debt. In addition to planned exploration programs and ongoing operating costs, the Company has contractual commitments to make acquisition payments of $21,000,000 before December 31, 2013. The Company will also need to repay outstanding convertible debentures if these are not converted. At May 31, 2013, the Company had cash of $517,154 and a working capital deficit of $3,765,729. Management plans to raise additional funds through equity and/or debt financings. There is no certainty that further funding will be available as needed. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue operating as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue its operations as a going concern, realize the carrying value of its assets, and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business is dependent upon its ability to raise new capital sufficient to fund its commitments and ongoing losses, and ultimately on generating profitable operations.

The Company paid a finder’s fee of $25,825 to a third party in connection with this option agreement.

During the year ended February 28, 2013, the Company became the subject to a civil action in the Third Judicial District court, Salt Lake County, State of Utah in connection with the Ringbolt Property option agreement. The optionors were seeking payment of $350,000, 1,400,000 of the Company’s shares and $20,716 in expenses related to the property, alternatively damages of $644,000. The Company did not make the required payment and did not issue the shares to the optionors as it contended that the optionors were in default of the option agreement. The Company counter claimed for specific performance under the option agreement and paid the $350,000 and issued the 1,400,000 shares into the Utah court.

The court ruled that tender to the court was not sufficient; therefore, the cash and shares were released to the optionors on July 10, 2012. The fair value of the 1,400,000 shares was $271,936. The Company deposited a bond in the amount of $350,000 with the Court as security for the preliminary injunction, which was disclosed on the balance sheet as Injunction Bond. Subsequent to February 28, 2013, the amount deposited was refunded to the Company. On September 10, 2012, the court granted the motion for a preliminary injunction, which enjoined the optionors from terminating the Ringbolt option agreement based upon the grounds alleged by the optionors.

On October 30, 2012 the Company entered into an amended option agreement (the “Amendment Agreement”) to acquire 100% undivided legal and beneficial interest in and to the Ringbolt Property, free and clear of all encumbrances in exploration leases, according to the following terms:

1.

The Company will pay to the optionors a total of $3,850,000 according to the following schedule:

a)

$150,000 upon execution of the Amendment Agreement (paid);

b)

c)

If the Company receives greater than $30 million but less than $40 million the optionors would receive 20% of the gross consideration in excess of $30 million;

On December 8, 2012, the Company entered into a second amendment to the option agreement to acquire 100% of the Ringbolt Property. The amendment stipulates that in the event that the cash payment of $2,450,000 following TSX-V approval of the Amendment Agreement is delayed, the parties agree to extend the payment deadline for a period of 30 days from the date of final approval from the TSX-V with the payment of $100,000 to one of the optionors with this extension payment to be deducted from the $2,450,000 payment due following TSX-V approval.

Tranche II

On March 14, 2013, the Company borrowed $285,000 from four lenders by way of convertible debentures (a “Debenture”) having a term until March 14, 2014 (the “Maturity Date”) and bearing interest at 15% per annum which shall accrue and be payable on the earlier of the Maturity Date, or the date the entire principal amount of each Debenture is converted. The principal amount of the Debentures is convertible into shares of common stock of the Company at the option of the holder, in whole or in part, at a price of US$0.19 per share until the Maturity Date. The Debentures are secured by a first ranking floating charge security on all of the Company’s assets.

In addition each holder of a Debenture received five common share purchase warrants for each US$1.00 of principal amount of the Debenture, entitling the holder to acquire one share of common stock of the Company for each warrant at an exercise price of US$0.19 per share for a period of one year from the date of issuance resulting in the Company issuing 1,425,000 warrants with an exercise price of US$0.19 for one year. The Company determined the fair value of the warrants to be $130,826 using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following assumptions: Expected dividend yield – 0; Expected stock price volatility – 75%; Risk-free interest rate –0.97%; Expected life – 1 year.

The proceeds were allocated to the Debenture and the warrants based on their relative fair values and accordingly, $195,334 was allocated to the Debenture and $89,666 was allocated to the warrants and recorded as a reduction in the liability and an increase in additional paid-in capital.

In accordance with ASC 470-20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options”, the Company recognized the value of the embedded beneficial conversion feature of $164,666. This value was recorded as a reduction of the liability and an increase in additional paid-in capital.

In connection with this private placement of debentures, the Company also incurred filing fee costs of $1,425. Of the total issuance costs incurred, $353 was recorded as deferred debt issuance costs and $1,272 was charged to additional paid-in capital.

The principal amount of the Debentures is convertible into shares of common stock of the Company at the option of the holder, in whole or in part, at a price of US$0.19 per share until the Maturity Date. The Debentures are secured by a first ranking floating charge security on all of the Company’s assets.

In addition each holder of a Debenture received five common share purchase warrants for each US$1.00 of principal amount of the Debenture, entitling the holder to acquire one share of common stock of the Company for each warrant at an exercise price of US$0.19 per share for a period of one year from the date of issuance resulting in the Company issuing 1,000,000 warrants with an exercise price of US$0.19 for one year. The Company determined the fair value of the warrants to be $62,896 using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following assumptions: Expected dividend yield – 0; Expected stock price volatility – 75%; Risk-free interest rate –0.97%; Expected life – 1 year.

The proceeds were allocated to the Debenture and the warrants based on their relative fair values and accordingly, $152,151 was allocated to the Debenture and $47,849 was allocated to the warrants and recorded as a reduction in the liability and an increase in additional paid-in capital.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations

The following discussion of our financial condition, changes in financial condition and results of operations for the three months ended May 31, 2013 and 2012 should be read in conjunction with our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and related notes for the three months ended May 31, 2013 and 2012. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including, but not limited to, those set forth under the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2013 filed with the SEC on May 31, 2013.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s February 28, 2013 audited financial statements, which were attached to our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2013 filed with the SEC on May 31, 2013. The results of operations for the periods ended May 31, 2013 and the same period last year are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full years.

Overview of our Business

We were incorporated on July 31, 1987 under the laws of Québec, Canada under the name “Bakertalc Inc.” On January 21, 1994, we changed our name to “Palace Explorations Inc.” On November 11, 1996, we changed our name to “X-Chequer Resources Inc.” On September 29, 2004 we changed our name to “International X-Chequer Resources Inc.” On October 18, 2007, we changed our name to “Passport Metals Inc.” On November 10, 2009 we changed our name to “Passport Potash Inc.” Effective April 26, 2011, we continued our governing corporate jurisdiction from the Province of Québec to the Province of British Columbia under the name “Passport Potash Inc.”

We are an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral resource properties. We currently have an interest in or have the right to earn an interest in six properties: Southwest Exploration Property, Twin Buttes Ranch, Sweetwater/American Potash, Mesa Uranium, Ringbolt Property and Fitzgerald Ranch (the Holbrook Basin properties), which are all located in Arizona. We have not established any proven or probable reserves on our mineral property interests and we are not in actual development or production of any mineral deposit at this time. We are an exploration stage enterprise, as defined in FASB ASC 915 “Development Stage Entities.”

Our principal focus is our Holbrook Basin potash project (the “Holbrook Basin Project”) comprised of exploration permits and claims, some of which we hold directly and others which are subject to option, a lease over with an option to purchase the Twin Buttes Ranch property, and a purchase agreement for the Fitzgerald Ranch property. Our interest in our Holbrook Basin Project is comprised of 87 Arizona State Land Department exploration permits, full or partial interests in 132 private land sections and 4 prospecting permits on federal land managed by the Bureau of Land Management, which are all located within the Holbrook Basin.

Subsidiaries

We have one wholly owned subsidiary, PPI Holding Corporation, an Arizona corporation.

Mineral Properties/Agreements

Southwest Exploration Property

On September 30, 2008 we entered into a mineral property option agreement (the “Southwest Option Agreement”) with Southwest Exploration Inc. (“Southwest”) to acquire an undivided 100% interest in 13 Arizona State Land Department exploration permits (“ASLD Exploration Permits”) comprising 8,413.3 acres (3,404.76 ha) of mineral exploration property located in Navajo County, in the Holbrook Basin, Arizona. Under the terms of the Southwest Option Agreement, any after acquired permits within the area of common interest may be made part of the property. Pursuant to this clause, 32 additional ASLD Exploration Permits were made part of the property for a total of 45 ASLD Exploration Permits.

Under the terms of the Southwest Option Agreement, as amended, we could acquire a 100% interest in the Southwest mining claims, subject to a 1% NSR retained by Southwest, in exchange for the following considerations:

22



  (a)

$100,000 on execution of the agreement (paid);

  (b)

1,000,000 options (issued) upon receipt of TSX-V approval of the agreement;

  (c)

$125,000 from 90 days following issuance of a drilling permit from the Arizona State Land Department. This permit was received on June 11, 2009 and $125,000 was paid July 23, 2009;

  (d)

250,000 shares on April 1, 2009 (issued);

  (e)

2,681,000 shares on October 1, 2009 (issued);

  (f)

5,000,000 shares on November 1, 2010 (issued);

  (g)

$350,000 from six months following TSX-V approval of the issuance of 5,000,000 shares (paid);

  (h)

Funding of $200,000 in exploration expenditures pursuant to the completion of a NI 43-101 technical report (completed);

  (i)

250,000 shares upon completion of a NI 43-101 technical report after drilling (issued); and

  (j)

Southwest shall retain a 1% NSR (purchased by the Company).

If and when the option is exercised, the 100% right, title, and interest in and to the property will vest in us free and clear of all charges, encumbrances and claims, except for the NSR.

Currently, we have a blanket bond with the Arizona State Land Department in the amount of $15,000 for the ASLD Exploration Permits. In addition, we also have a bond with the Arizona Oil and Gas Conservation Commission in the amount of $55,000 for drilling permits.

We entered into an amendment to the Southwest Option Agreement, dated September 18, 2009, whereby the parties agreed to settle the October 1, 2009 scheduled cash payment of $225,000 with the issuance of 2,681,000 shares of the Company.

We entered into a second amendment to the Southwest Option Agreement, dated April 1, 2010, whereby the parties agreed to extend the due date for the payment of $250,000 to Southwest until October 1, 2010. As we had not satisfied this payment obligation by October 1, 2010, we issued 5,000,000 shares of our common stock to Southwest on November 8, 2010 in full satisfaction of the outstanding payment.

We completed the exercise of our option to purchase the 100% interest in the Southwest claims and the purchase of the 1% net smelter royalty in an agreement dated February 13, 2012. The Southwest permits are held by PPI Holding Corporation, our wholly owned Arizona subsidiary.

Twin Buttes Ranch Property

On August 28, 2009 we entered into a four-year lease with an option to purchase (the “Lease & Option Agreement”) with Twin Buttes Ranch, LLC respecting the Twin Buttes Ranch located in the potash-bearing Holbrook Basin of east-central Arizona. The Twin Buttes Ranch comprises some 28,526 acres (11,544 hectares) of private deeded land with 76.7% or approximately 21,894 acres (8,860 hectares) overlying the potash horizons within the Holbrook Basin.

Under the terms of the Lease & Option Agreement, we may acquire a 100% undivided interest in the deeded land and sub-surface mineral rights comprising the Twin Buttes Ranch property by making lease payments totaling $500,000 over a four year period and, upon exercising our option to purchase, by paying $20,000,000 for the entire Twin Buttes Ranch including all sub-surface mineral rights except those pertaining to oil and gas, petrified wood and geothermal resources. There are no royalties associated with the sub-surface mineral rights.

On September 30, 2010 we announced that we had amended the terms of the Lease & Option Agreement to provide for an extension of a portion of the initial cash payment until December 1, 2010.

Details of the payments under the Lease & Option Agreement are as follows:

  (f)

Upon exercising its option to purchase the entire Twin Butte Ranch, the Company must deliver a certified cheque in the amount of $1,000,000 on or before 5pm (Arizona time), August 28, 2013 (the option expiry date), followed by a payment of $ 19,000,000 within thirty days.

The Lease & Option Agreement will expire on August 28, 2013, or such other time mutually agreed to in writing by the parties. All payments to date have been made and the option is in good standing.

Sweetwater/American Potash Property

On November 12, 2010 we entered into an option of Arizona exploration leases (the “Sweetwater Option Agreement”) with Sweetwater River Resources, LLC (“Sweetwater”) and American Potash, LLC (“American Potash”) to acquire the right, title and interest in five mineral exploration permits within the Holbrook Basin. The five permits consist of Arizona State Land Department exploration permits that cover more than 3,200 acres.

Pursuant to the terms of the Sweetwater Option Agreement, we could acquire a 100% interest in the exploration permits for the consideration of: (i) issuing 500,000 shares of our common stock by December 15, 2010; (ii) cash payment of CAD$90,000 payable in three installments of $30,000 each at 12 months, 18 months and 24 months from the date of signing the Sweetwater Option Agreement; and (iii) meeting the exploration expenditures a required by the Arizona State Land Department. We are responsible for payment of all exploration expenditures on the permits. Pursuant to the Sweetwater Option Agreement, the property was subject to a 2% net smelter royalty in favor of American Potash which we had the option to purchase at a price of $150,000 for 1% or $300,000 for the full 2%.

On March 27, 2012, we completed the exercise of the option under the Sweetwater Option Agreement and the repurchase of the 2% NSR royalty in respect of the Sweetwater exploration permits. The permits are held by PPI Holding Corporation, our wholly owned subsidiary.

Mesa Uranium Property

On August 31, 2010 we entered into a mineral property option agreement (the “Mesa Option Agreement”) with Mesa Uranium Corp. (“Mesa”) in respect of three Arizona State Land Department exploration permits covering approximately 1,950 acres, which are wholly owned by Mesa. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, we had the right to acquire a 75% interest in the Mesa permits in consideration for the issuance of 500,000 shares of our common stock to Mesa, the payment of $20,000.00 cash to Mesa and meeting the minimum exploration expenditures as required by the Arizona State Land Department. Upon earning a 75% interest in the permits, we had the right to acquire the remaining 25% interest in the Mesa permits by paying $100,000 in cash, stock equivalent or work expenditures. Under the terms of the agreement, we are responsible for payment of all exploration expenditures on the leases. The property was subject to a 2% net smelter royalty which we had the option to purchase at a price of $150,000 per 1% or $300,000 for the full 2%.

On February 13, 2012, we exercised our option to acquire a 75% interest in the Mesa permits. On March 9, 2012, we announced that we had exercised our option to acquire the remaining 25% interest in the Mesa properties under the Mesa Option Agreement and to acquire the 2% NSR on those properties thereby acquiring a royalty-free, 100% interest in the Mesa properties. The permits are held by PPI Holding Corporation, our wholly owned subsidiary.

Ringbolt Property

On March 28, 2011 we entered into an option agreement (the “Ringbolt Option Agreement”) with Ringbolt Ventures Ltd., Potash Green, LLC, Wendy Walker Tibbetts and Joseph J. Hansen (collectively, the “Optionor”) pursuant to which we acquired the right to acquire a 100% interest in the Ringbolt potash property located in the Holbrook Basin of southeast Arizona. The Ringbolt property is comprised of 15,994.32 acres of mineral exploration permits on land managed by the Arizona State Land Department.

Pursuant to the terms of the Ringbolt Option Agreement, we may acquire a 90% interest in the property by: (i) making cash payments totaling $1.0 million ($50,000 upon execution of the agreement, $250,000 upon TSX Venture Exchange approval, $350,000 on or before the 1st anniversary of TSX Venture Exchange approval, and $350,000 on or before the 2nd anniversary of TSX Venture Exchange approval), (ii) incurring a total of $2.25 million in exploration expenditures on the property over three years ($500,000 within 1 year of TSX Venture Exchange approval, $750,000 within 1 year of the 1st anniversary of TSX Venture Exchange approval, and $1,000,000 within 1 year of the 2nd anniversary of TSX Venture Exchange approval), and (iv) issuing four million common shares over a three-year period (1,000,000 shares upon TSX Venture Exchange approval, 1,400,000 shares on or before the 1st anniversary of TSX Venture Exchange approval, and 1,600,000 shares on or before the 2nd anniversary of TSX Venture Exchange approval). Upon satisfaction of these terms, we will have the right to purchase the remaining 10% interest for a cash payment of $5 million, which shall remain exercisable until the Ringbolt property goes into commercial production (defined as the sale of any mineral products from the property). In addition, pursuant to the Ringbolt Option Agreement, the Ringbolt property will be subject to a 1% gross overriding royalty on production from the property.

24


On October 30, 2012, as part of a settlement agreement between us and the Optionor, we entered into an amendment agreement to the Ringbolt Option Agreement pursuant to which we will pay to the Optionor a total of $3,850,000, $150,000 of which was paid upon execution of the amendment agreement, $2,450,000 will be paid upon TSX Ventures Exchange approval of the amendment agreement, and the remaining $1,250,000 on or before October 31, 2014. In addition, upon TSX Venture Exchange approval of the amendment agreement, we will issue 750,000 shares of common stock to the Optionor and the Optionor will assign to us all of its right, title and interest in and to the property and will take all necessary action with the ASLD to effect such assignment. The cash payment of $2,450,000 and 750,000 shares of our common stock will be placed into escrow and will be released to the Optionor upon receipt of confirmation of the assignment of the property to us from the ASLD. There will be no royalty attached to the transferred mineral exploration permits.

Should we sell or in any way transfer our interest in the property, the Optionor will receive 20% of the gross consideration in excess of $30 million to a maximum of $2,000,000 if the aggregate consideration received for the transfer of the interest in the property is greater than $30 million and less than $40 million; or $2,000,000 plus 10% of the gross consideration in excess of $40 million to a maximum of $1,000,000 if the aggregate consideration is greater than $40 million and less than $50 million; or $3,000,000 plus 20% of the gross consideration in excess of $50 million if the aggregate consideration is greater than $50 million.

If we sell or transfer less than a 100% interest in the property, then the aforementioned bonus payments shall be ratably reduced by multiplying the bonus payment by the percentage of interest subject to the transfer transaction. The sale or transfer of the remainder of the interest in the property held by us will continue to be subject to the aforementioned bonus payment provisions.

On December 8, 2012, we entered into a second amendment agreement with the Optionor to amend the amendment agreement to extend the deadline to make the cash payment of $2,450,000 following TSX Venture Exchange approval for a period of 30 days from the date of final approval with a payment of $100,000 to Potash Green, LLC, which payment will be deducted from the aggregate payment owed.

The amendment agreement and the second amendment agreement to the Ringbolt Option Agreement were approved by the TSX Venture Exchange on February 27, 2013, and all payments except the $1,250,000 due on October 31, 2014, have been paid.

Cooperative Agreement and Joint Exploration Agreement with The Hopi Tribe

Portions of our Holbrook Basin potash project in Arizona are located adjacent to land privately owned by the Hopi Tribe. On March 8, 2011 we finalized a cooperative agreement with the Hopi Tribe which establishes a cooperative arrangement between us and the Hopi Tribe and gives us access across the privately owned Hopi lands to conduct exploration activities while allowing the Tribe to share in our study results. We are in continuing discussions with the Hopi Tribe on the project.

On November 8, 2012, but having an effective date of November 1, 2012, we and The Hopi Tribe, a federally recognized Indian Tribe, entered into a Joint Exploration Agreement (the “JEA”) pursuant to which the parties agree to explore the Hopi land sections (the “Hopi Property”) which are checker-boarded with our southern landholdings in accordance with an exploration program, which shall consist of a two-phase drilling campaign as set out in Exhibit 2 to the JEA. The first phase of the exploration program will include 8 drill sites and will cover a 25,000 acre swath of the contiguous land sections in the DoBell ranch area of the Holbrook Basin. The second phase of drilling, which will be designed by ERCOSPLAN guided from the results from phase one, will include up to 10 additional drill sites. We will be responsible for all costs, charges and expenses incurred in connection with the exploration program.

In addition, under the JEA, we shall indemnify, defend, release, and hold harmless The Hopi Tribe and its elected officials, advisors and contractors, employees, agents, lessees, insurers, successors and assigns (the “Indemnities”) for, against and from any claim, damage, lien, loss, cost, charge, expense (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) or liability resulting from, or caused by, or incurred in connection with, or alleged to have resulted from, or been caused by, or been incurred in connection with, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, the exploration program. Our payment and indemnity obligations shall survive the termination of the JEA.

25


Pursuant to the JEA, the Hopi Tribe grants us and our contractors, which includes any employee or contractor involved in the exploration program (as defined in the JEA), a limited license on the terms and conditions, and during the term of the JEA to (a) enter and cross existing ranch roads on Hopi Property for ingress and egress purposes related to the exploration program, (b) blade new roads to drill sites on the Hopi Property designated by ERCOSPLAN, (c) drill exploratory holes on the Hopi Property at drill sites designated by ERCOSPLAN, (d) lay cables across the Hopi Property for purposes of seismic studies that are part of the exploration program, (e) drive a vibrator truck along seismic lines, and (f) blade existing ranch roads on the Hopi Property. We and our contractors shall not use the Hopi Property for any other purpose without the prior written approval of The Hopi Tribe; provided, that with respect to use of the Hopi Property identified by ERCOSPLAN in writing as necessary or desirable for purposes of the exploration program, The Hopi Tribe’s approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Except as otherwise expressly set forth in the JEA, us and The Hopi Tribe shall each separately have the right to possess and use all exploration program results for any purpose. In addition, The Hopi Tribe and us, and the parties’ respective successors and assigns, may use and freely disclose exploration program results received under this JEA without prior approval of the other for the parties or such successors’ or assigns’ internal use, and for review and use by geologists and other outside advisors engaged by it (including ERCOSPLAN) or its successors or assigns, lenders and prospective lenders, venture partners and prospective venture partners, and others who are subject to confidentiality agreements consistent with the disclosing party’s obligations under the JEA; provided, no exploration program results shall be shared with venture partners or prospective venture partners by The Hopi Tribe other than us or persons approved in writing by us in our discretion prior to the earlier of (1) expiration or termination of one or more of our mineral exploration permits from the Arizona State Land Department pertaining to our property, or (2) October 15, 2014 (such earlier date, the “Automatic Termination Date”).

Furthermore, the JEA contains an exclusivity provision whereby from the effective date and ending on the date the JEA terminates unless extended in accordance with the terms of the JEA until October 15, 2015, The Hopi Tribe will negotiate exclusively with us with respect to the joint exploration of the Hopi Property and our property, which are contiguous as set out in a letter of intent (the “Letter of Intent”) entered into between the parties on September 26, 2012, and it will not directly or indirectly, take any of the following actions with any party other than us:

(i) solicit or encourage inquiries or proposals with respect to, furnish any information relating to, participate in any negotiations or discussions concerning, or cooperate in any manner relating to the subject matter of the Letter of Intent (a “Transaction”); or

(ii) enter into any agreement or understanding with any person or entity providing for a Transaction.

Unless the JEA is earlier terminated in accordance with the JEA or superseded by another agreement between the parties, the JEA shall terminate automatically at 5:00 PM Arizona time on the Automatic Termination Date.

Fitzgerald Ranch Property

On May 7, 2012, we entered into a purchase agreement with co-trustees of the Fitzgerald Living Trust (“Fitzgerald Living Trust”) to acquire real estate covering a total of 41,000 contiguous acres of royalty-free private land (the “Fitzgerald Ranch”) located near Holbrook and adjacent to our Twin Buttes Ranch holdings in the Holbrook Basin in exchange for a total purchase price of $15,000,000 on the following material terms: (i) $250,000 to be irrevocably released to Fitzgerald Living Trust upon execution of the agreement; (ii) an additional $250,000 to be placed into escrow and irrevocably released to Fitzgerald Living Trust on July 1, 2012; (iii) during the term of the agreement, we have the right to perform exploration activities on the property; (iv) a payment of $14,500,000 at closing to take place on December 18, 2012; and (v) the final purchase is subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval.

A provision of the agreement grants us the right to perform exploration activities on the property. We have added 8 additional drill holes to our 2012 drill program which will be drilled on the Fitzgerald Ranch. We have drilled 5 holes on the Fitzgerald Ranch as part of the drill program.

On November 8, 2012, we entered into an amendment agreement to the original property purchase agreement. In accordance with the amendment agreement, in addition to our payment of an aggregate of $500,000 made by July 1, 2012, payments of $500,000 and $4,000,000 were to be made to Fitzgerald Living Trust upon execution of the amendment agreement and on December 18, 2012, respectively, which December 18, 2012 payment has not yet been made. Additionally, a payment of $5,000,000 will be irrevocably paid to Fitzgerald Living Trust on June 30, 2013 and the balance of $5,000,000 will be paid at the time of closing of the sale which will take place on December 18, 2013.

26


We also agreed to reimburse Fitzgerald Living Trust for any increase in taxes to it which are attributable to closing this sale in 2013 rather than 2012 and to make this reimbursement within 120 days from the date Fitzgerald Living Trust provides documentation to us of the increased tax amount.

On May 29, 2013, we entered into an agreement to amend and restate the agreement to the original property purchase agreement (the “Amended and Restated Agreement”) with Fitzgerald Living Trust for the purchase of the Fitzgerald Ranch, which also supersedes the amendment agreement dated November 8, 2012, as follows:

  (a)

the purchase price has been increased to $17,000,000 and is to be paid as follows:

       
  (i)

the parties acknowledged that we have already paid $1,000,000 to Fitzgerald Living Trust;

       
  (ii)

a payment of $500,000 on the earlier of October 31, 2013, or within 30 days of closing our next financing;

       
  (iii)

a payment of $500,000 to be paid on December 31, 2013;

       
  (iv)

a payment of $1,000,000 to be paid on December 31, 2014; and

       
  (v)

the balance of $14,000,000 to be paid on the closing of the sale which is on or before June 15, 2015;

       
  (b)

we have provided Fitzgerald Living Trust with the option to enter into a grazing lease on the property at the rate currently being charged by the Petrified Forest National Park, with the period of the lease being 5 years, with the option to renew for an additional 5 year term. The parties agreed that any ranching use of the property is secondary, and subject to mineral exploration and development;

       
  (c)

during the term of the Amended and Restated Agreement, Fitzgerald Living Trust grants to us the right to enter into and on the property as set forth in the agreement to explore for, develop, core drill and sample ores, minerals and metals which are or may be found therein or thereon; provided however, that such ores, minerals and metals may only be removed, treated and produced in de minimus amounts from the core borings, solely for the purpose of determining the saturation and existence of such ores, minerals and metals and in no event shall we be permitted to sell any such ores, minerals or metals; and

       
  (d)

the construction of roads shall be subject to the prior written approval of Fitzgerald Living Trust, which approval shall not unreasonably be withheld and shall be given in a timely manner.

The Amended and Restated Agreement is subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval.

Joint Exploration Agreement with HNZ Potash, LLC

On July 27, 2012, we entered into a Joint Exploration Agreement (the “Agreement”) with HNZ Potash, LLC (“HNZ”) to jointly explore and potentially develop twenty-one permitted parcels in which we hold ASLD exploration permits and which are located on the southernmost area of our landholdings (the “Permit Property”). The Permit Property is within HNZ’s private landholdings and has not been previously explored by us. Under the terms of the Agreement, HNZ has agreed to pay us 50% of certain costs previously incurred by us with respect to the Permit Property, and we will assign a 50% interest in the Permit Property to HNZ.

The purposes of the Agreement are to: (i) conduct exploration and to evaluate the potential for development and mining of the Permit Property; (ii) to acquire interests within the lands owned by the Hopi Tribe commonly referred to as the Dobell Ranch lands as more particularly described in the Agreement; (iii) if justified by the exploration activities, the parties upon mutual agreement will form an entity to seek a mining lease to jointly engage in development and mining of the Permit Property; (iv) to complete and satisfy all environmental compliance obligations and continuing obligations affecting the Permit Property; and (v) to perform any other activity necessary, appropriate, or incidental to any of the foregoing. During the term of the Agreement, the parties will equally share the costs for maintaining the Permit Property in good standing with the ASLD. The parties may, either alone or jointly, conduct exploration of any or all of the Permit Property pursuant to one or more plans of exploration.

The term of the Agreement shall begin on the effective date of the Agreement and extend to the expiration of the fifth year term of the last permit covered by the Agreement, or any permit obtained as a replacement therefor (the “Term”); provided, however, that, if during the Term the participants (or any entity formed by the participants) jointly apply for a mineral lease or mineral leases on any portion of the Permit Property, the Term shall be automatically extended to the date a final determination is issued by the ASLD regarding the last mineral lease application.

27


Other provisions in the Agreement include the following:

Additional Exploration Permits

On May 30, 2013, we announced that we had received nine new exploration permits from the ASLD, adding 4,703.66 acres of Arizona State trust land to our land package. These additional permits are on Arizona State trust land sections that had been closed to development related to the proposed expansion of the Petrified Forest National Park. Seven of the sections lie within our private landholdings, while the other two border the Hopi Property development area and abut the south border of the Petrified Forest National Park.

Employees

As at May 31, 2013, we have one employee, however, we have 10 individuals working on a consulting basis. Our operations are managed by our officers with input from our directors. We engage geological and engineering consultants from time to time as required to assist in evaluating our property interests and recommending and conducting work programs.

The increase in net loss of ($2,594,938) resulted primarily from the change in derivative liability from $3,246,553 in the three month period ended May 31, 2012 to $694,645 in the three month period ended May 31, 2013. There were also an accretion expense of ($1,027,387) in the three month period ended May 31, 2013, interest expense on convertible debentures of ($214,414) in the three month period ended May 31, 2013, as well as a result of a reduction in advertising expenses, business development expenses, consulting fees, foreign exchange loss, investor relations expenses, mineral property option payments and exploration costs, and professional fees.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

30


Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in operation.

As at May 31, 2013, our current assets were $853,373 and our current liabilities was $4,619,102 including a derivative liability of $922,328, resulting in a working capital deficit of $3,765,729. Our current assets as at May 31, 2013 consisted of cash and cash equivalents of $517,154, receivables of $79,096, prepaid expenses of $229,543 and deferred issuance costs of $27,580. Our current liabilities as at May 31, 2013 consisted of trade payables and accrued liabilities of $706,401, convertible debentures liability of $2,990,373 and derivative liability of $922,328.

During the three month period ended May 31, 2013, we received cash of $132,505 (2012: Nil) for debentures issued – net of issue costs, and $8,157 (2012: Nil) for proceeds on issuance of common shares upon the exercise of warrants. At May 31, 2013, we had an aggregate of 50,968,146 (February 28, 2013: 48,584,812) share purchase warrants exercisable, between $0.20 and $0.25 (CAD$0.20 and CAD$0.25) and for US$0.19 per share, which have the potential upon exercise to convert to approximately US$5,520,371 plus CAD$4,438,814 in cash over the next year. Further as at May 31, 2013, a total of 17,779,892 (February 28, 2013: 18,279,892) stock options exercisable between $0.10 and $0.59 (CAD$0.10 and CAD$0.59) per share which have the potential upon exercise to generate a total of approximately $5,536,609 (CAD$5,536,609) in cash over the next five years. There is no assurance that these securities will be exercised.

Deficit accumulated since inception of exploration stage increased from ($34,928,564) as at February 28, 2013 to ($36,777,363) as at May 31, 2013.

Our plan of operations over the next twelve months is to focus on the following:

Therefore, based on the above, we anticipate that we will require a total of approximately $34,290,540 for our plan of operations over the next twelve months. At May 31, 2013, we had cash of $517,154 and a working capital deficit of $3,765,729. During the next twelve months, we anticipate that we will not generate any revenue. Accordingly, we will be required to obtain additional equity financing in order to pursue our plan of operations for and beyond the next twelve months. We cannot provide investors with any assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funding from the sale of our common stock to fund our exploration programs, property acquisitions and repayment of debt going forward. In the absence of such financing, we will not be able to continue our planned property acquisitions and possibly our anticipated exploration programs and our business plan may fail. Even if we are successful in obtaining financing to fund our exploration program, there is no assurance that we will obtain the funding necessary to complete our planned property acquisitions.

During the three month period ended May 31, 2013, our net cash decreased by $1,126,617, which included net cash used in operating activities of ($1,267,279), net cash used in investing activities of $Nil and net cash provided by financing activities of $140,662.

During the fiscal year ended February 28, 2013, our net cash decreased by $6,955,239, which included net cash used in operating activities of ($12,788,940), net cash used in investing activities of ($1,050,000) and net cash provided by financing activities of $6,883,701.

Subsequent events

32


Effective June 3, 2013, our board of directors appointed Michael X. Schlumpberger as our Chief Operating Officer.

On July 2, 2013, our board of directors granted 2,555,000 stock options to our directors, officers, consultants and employees. The stock options are exercisable at CAD$0.18 per share and will expire on July 2, 2018.

Outstanding share data

At May 31, 2013, we had 183,593,073 issued and outstanding common shares, 17,779,892 outstanding stock options at a weighted average exercise price of $0.31 (CAD$0.31) per share, and 50,968,146 outstanding warrants at a weighted average exercise price of $0.20 (CAD$0.20) per share.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.

We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. In general, management’s estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.

We believe the following critical accounting policies require us to make significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

Mineral Property Expenditures

We are primarily engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties.

Mineral property acquisition costs are capitalized in accordance with FASB ASC 930-805, “Extractive Activities-Mining,” when management has determined that probable future benefits consisting of a contribution to future cash inflows have been identified and adequate financial resources are available or are expected to be available as required to meet the terms of property acquisition and budgeted exploration and development expenditures. Mineral property acquisition costs are expensed as incurred if the criteria for capitalization are not met. In the event that mineral property acquisition costs are paid with Company shares, those shares are recorded at the estimated fair value at the time the shares are due in accordance with the terms of the property agreements.

Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred.

When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves and pre-feasibility, the costs incurred to develop such property are capitalized.

Estimated future removal and site restoration costs, when determinable are provided over the life of proven reserves on a units-of-production basis. Costs, which include production equipment removal and environmental remediation, are estimated each period by management based on current regulations, actual expenses incurred, and technology and industry standards. Any charge is included in exploration expense or the provision for depletion and depreciation during the period and the actual restoration expenditures are charged to the accumulated provision amounts as incurred.

As of the date of these financial statements, we have incurred property acquisition costs that have been capitalized and property option payments and exploration costs which have been expensed.

To date we have not established any proven or probable reserves on our mineral properties.

Stock-based Compensation

33


We account for Stock-Based Compensation under ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, which addresses the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, with a primary focus on transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. ASC 718-10 requires measurement of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exceptions). Incremental compensation costs arising from subsequent modifications of awards after the grant date must be recognized.

We account for stock-based compensation awards to non-employees in accordance with ASC 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. Under ASC 505-50, we determine the fair value of the warrants or stock-based compensation awards granted as either the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Any stock options or warrants issued to non-employees are recorded in expense and additional paid-in capital in shareholders' equity/(deficit) over the applicable service periods using variable accounting through the vesting dates based on the fair value of the options or warrants at the end of each period.

We issue stock to consultants for various services. The costs for these transactions are measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of the common stock is measured at the earlier of (i) the date at which a firm commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached or (ii) the date at which the counterparty’s performance is complete. We recognized consulting expense and a corresponding increase to additional paid-in-capital related to stock issued for services.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

We have reviewed recently issued accounting pronouncements and we plan to adopt those that are applicable to us. We do not expect the adoption of these pronouncements to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed in varying degrees to a variety of financial instrument related risks. The Board of Directors approves and monitors the risk management processes, inclusive of documented investment policies, counterparty limits, and controlling and reporting structures. The type of risk exposure and the way in which such exposure is managed is provided as follows:

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss. Our primary exposure to credit risk is on our cash and cash equivalents. As most of our cash and cash equivalents are held by the same bank there is a concentration of credit risk. This risk is managed by using a major Canadian banks that are high credit quality financial institutions as determined by rating agencies. Our secondary exposure to risk is on our other receivables. This risk is minimal as receivables consist primarily of refundable government goods and services taxes.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that we will not be able to meet our financial obligations as they become due. Our objective in managing liquidity risk is to maintain sufficient readily available capital in order to meet our liquidity requirements at any point in time. We achieve this by maintaining sufficient cash and cash equivalents and raising capital through debt and/or equity financing.

Historically, our sole source of funding has been the issuance of equity securities for cash, primarily through private placements. Our access to financing is always uncertain. There can be no assurance of continued access to significant equity funding.

Foreign exchange risk

Foreign exchange risk is the risk that we will be subject to foreign currency fluctuations in satisfying obligations related to our foreign activities. We operate primarily in Canada and the United States and are consequently exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from transactions denominated in foreign currency. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates may affect our results of operations. We manage foreign exchange risk by closely monitoring relevant exchange rates and when possible, executes currency exchange transactions at times when exchange rates are most advantageous for us. We do not use hedging to manage its foreign exchange risk.

34


Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. We are exposed to interest rate risk on our cash equivalents as these instruments have original maturities of three months or less and are therefore exposed to interest rate fluctuations on renewal.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, Joshua Bleak (being our principal executive officer), and our Chief Financial Officer, Laara Shaffer (being our principal financial and accounting officer), to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures for our Company.

Our management has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of May 31, 2013 (under the supervision and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer), pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. As part of such evaluation, management considered the matters discussed below relating to internal control over financial reporting. Based on this evaluation, our Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of May 31, 2013.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The term “internal control over financial reporting” is defined as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the registrant’s principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the registrant’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

A material weakness is defined in Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 5 as a significant deficiency, or a combination of significant deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that results in there being more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected.

There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our fiscal quarter ended May 31, 2013 that have materially affected, or are likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

35


PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Except as set forth below, management is not aware of any legal proceedings contemplated by any governmental authority or any other party involving us or our properties. As of the date of this prospectus, no director, officer or affiliate is a party adverse to us in any legal proceeding, or has an adverse interest to us in any legal proceedings.

North American Potash Developments Inc. v. Passport Potash Inc. (Case No. 120903652)

On May 18, 2012, we delivered a letter to North American Potash Developments Inc. (formerly Ringbolt Ventures Ltd.), Potash Green, LLC, Wendy Walker Tibbetts and Joseph J. Hansen (collectively, the “Optionor”), informing them that they were in breach of the Ringbolt Option Agreement by the Optionor not granting operational control of the Potash Green exploration permits by signing a limited Power of Attorney as requested by us and that the payment of cash and shares that were due by us to the Optionor on May 17, 2012 would not be paid until the Optionor cured the defaults delineated in the default letter.

On May 25, 2012, we were informed by the Optionor that it had filed a civil action in Third Judicial District court, Salt Lake County, State of Utah alleging that we failed to make payment to the Optionor in the amount of $350,000 or deliver to Optionor 1,400,000 shares of our common stock on May 17, 2012 as required pursuant to the Ringbolt Option Agreement, and that we did not provide a timely or proper written report as required pursuant to the Ringbolt Option Agreement. In addition, the Optionor alleges that we have failed to reimburse the Optionor for $20,715.80 in expenses paid by the Optionor to maintain certain leases that are the subject of the Ringbolt Option Agreement. In its claim under the first cause of action for breach of contract, the Optionor is seeking payment of $350,000 and 1,400,000 shares of our common stock, or alternatively $644,000 in total damages, plus interest, costs and attorney fees, as allowed by law. In its second cause of action for unjust enrichment, the Optionor is seeking no less than $20,715.80, plus interest, costs, and attorney fees, as allowed by law. With respect to the second cause of action, we take the position that such expenses were due prior to the transaction receiving TSX Venture Exchange approval as required in accordance with the Ringbolt Option Agreement, and therefore, such payments were the responsibility of Optionor.

On June 19, 2012, we filed an answer and counterclaim to the Ringbolt civil action and tendered to the Utah court the $350,000 in cash and the 1,400,000 shares which were due pursuant to the Ringbolt Option Agreement on May 17, 2012, pending a ruling by the court on the sufficiency of tender. The court ruled that the tender to the court was not sufficient, therefore, the cash and shares were released to Optionor on July 10, 2012.

On September 10, 2012, the Court had granted our motion for a preliminary injunction, which enjoined Optionor from terminating the Ringbolt Option Agreement based upon the grounds alleged by Optionor.

On October 30, 2012, as part of a settlement agreement between us and the Optionor, we entered into an amendment agreement to the Ringbolt Option Agreement.

Pursuant to the amendment agreement, we will pay to the Optionor a total of $3,850,000, $150,000 of which was paid upon execution of the amendment agreement, $2,450,000 will be paid upon TSX Ventures Exchange approval of the amendment agreement, and the remaining $1,250,000 on or before October 31, 2014. In addition, upon TSX Venture Exchange approval of the amendment agreement, we will issue 750,000 shares of common stock to the Optionor and the Optionor will assign to us all of its right, title and interest in and to the property and will take all necessary action with the ASLD to effect such assignment. The cash payment of $2,450,000 and 750,000 shares of our common stock will be placed into escrow and will be released to the Optionor upon receipt of confirmation of the assignment of the property to us from the ASLD. There will be no royalty attached to the transferred mineral exploration permits.

Should we sell or in any way transfer our interest in the property, the Optionor will receive 20% of the gross consideration in excess of $30 million to a maximum of $2,000,000 if the aggregate consideration received for the transfer of the interest in the property is greater than $30 million and less than $40 million; or $2,000,000 plus 10% of the gross consideration in excess of $40 million to a maximum of $1,000,000 if the aggregate consideration is greater than $40 million and less than $50 million; or $3,000,000 plus 20% of the gross consideration in excess of $50 million if the aggregate consideration is greater than $50 million.

36


If we sell or transfer less than a 100% interest in the property, then the aforementioned bonus payments shall be ratably reduced by multiplying the bonus payment by the percentage of interest subject to the transfer transaction. The sale or transfer of the remainder of the interest in the property held by us will continue to be subject to the aforementioned bonus payment provisions.

On December 8, 2012, we entered into a second amendment agreement with the Optionor to amend the amendment agreement to extend the deadline to make the cash payment of $2,450,000 following TSX Venture Exchange approval for a period of 30 days from the date of final approval with a payment of $100,000 to Potash Green, LLC, which payment will be deducted from the aggregate amount owed.

On February 27, 2013, we received approval from the TSX Venture Exchange and all payments except the $1,250,00 due on October 31, 2014, have been paid to the Optionor.

On March 14, 2013, the Court dismissed the civil action brought by the Optionor with prejudice.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

On March 14, 2013, we sold an aggregate of $285,000 of our convertible debentures due on March 14, 2014 with an interest rate of 15% per annum which shall accrue and be payable on the earlier of the maturity date or the date the entire principal amount of each debenture is converted. The principal amount of the debentures is convertible into shares of our common stock at the option of the holder, in whole or in part, at a price of $0.19 per share until the maturity date. The conversion price is subject to adjustment upon a reclassification or other change in our outstanding common stock and certain distributions to all holders of our common stock. In addition, each holder of a debenture received a one-year warrant to purchase five shares of our common stock for each $1.00 of principal amount of debenture purchased at an exercise price of $0.19 per share. The debentures are secured by a first ranking floating charge security on all of our assets. We relied on exemptions from registration under the U.S. Securities Act provided by Regulation S for the offshore investors, based on representations and warranties provided by the investors in their respective subscription agreements entered into between us and each investor.

On April 4, 2013, we sold an aggregate of $200,000 of our convertible debentures due on April 4, 2014 with an interest rate of 15% per annum which shall accrue and be payable on the earlier of the maturity date or the date the entire principal amount of each debenture is converted. The principal amount of the debentures is convertible into shares of our common stock at the option of the holder, in whole or in part, at a price of $0.19 per share until the maturity date. The conversion price is subject to adjustment upon a reclassification or other change in our outstanding common stock and certain distributions to all holders of our common stock. In addition, each holder of a debenture received a one year warrant to purchase five shares of our common stock for each $1.00 of principal amount of debenture purchased at an exercise price of $0.19 per share. The debentures are secured by a first ranking floating charge security on all of our assets. We relied on exemptions from registration under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, provided by Rule 506 of Regulation D and/or Section 4(a)(2) for the US investors, based on representations and warranties provided by the investors in the Debentures in their respective subscription agreements entered into between us and each investor.
