Denver, Colorado (FSCwire) - Midway Gold Corp. (TSX and NYSE-MKT: MDW) (the “Company” or “Midway”) remains in active discussions with its Senior Lender regarding strategic partnerships, asset sale opportunities and debt refinancing opportunities. As previously disclosed, the terms of a waiver with regard to the Senior Debt have lapsed and the Company remains in discussions to obtain additional waivers. The Company’s Senior Lender has provided the Company with a notice alleging an event of default based on the non-monetary conditions which were previously waived. The notice does not invoke or demand any specific remedies but states that it reserves all rights. Midway believes the notice is intended to document the conditions as viewed by Senior Lender and, while there can be no assurances, we will continue working toward maximizing value for our stakeholders by pursuing our strategic alternatives.
