International Star, Inc. (“we”, “us” or the “Company”) files this report on Form 8-K to report the following:

Item 1.01                      Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 13, 2010, we entered into a loan transaction with Beaird Operating Companies, LLC (“Beaird”) through which we borrowed total principal of $200,000.  In connection with the loan, we issued a Promissory Note (the “Note”) to Beaird.  Under the terms of the Note, the proceeds of the loan carry simple interest at the rate of 12% per annum beginning on the date of the loan.  All unpaid principal and accrued interest is due on December 13, 2011 (the “Maturity Date”).  No payments are required until the Maturity Date.  However, for any principal amount due from us under the Note that is not paid on or before the Maturity Date, the unpaid principal balance due will increase by 1.5 times and such increased principal amount will accrue simple interest at a rate of 12% per annum effective as of the Maturity Date.  We have the right to prepay any amounts due to Beaird under the Note at any time without penalty.

In connection with the loan, we issued to Beaird warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase up to 20,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share.  The Warrants expire on the later of the second anniversary of the date of issuance or the date all principal due under the Note is fully paid.  The exercise price may be paid in cash or by a reduction of the principal amount owed on the Note equal to the exercise price, or by a combination of cash payment and a reduction of the principal amount owed on the Note.  We believe the issuance of these securities was exempt from registration under Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”).  In addition, the Stock Purchase Warrant Agreement with respect to the Warrants included certain piggyback registration rights under which Beaird may register for resale shares held by Beaird if we propose to register shares of our common stock (or any security which is convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for common stock) under the Securities Act.

We plan to use the proceeds of the loan to fund our current and expected short-term operating and exploration costs and certain outstanding expenses and for general working capital.  We do not have any revenues and continue to be dependent on debt and equity financing to meet our immediate cash needs, and we do not anticipate achieving any revenues during 2010.  In the event we are unable to achieve sufficient revenues for the repayment of the Note, we will need to raise additional funds through further debt or equity financings.  We can provide no assurance that we will be able to generate revenues or raise the funds necessary for the repayment of the Note and for our continued operations on terms favorable to us or at all.

The Note is secured by a 49% interest in the mineral rights of our mining claims in our Detrital Wash Property in Mohave County, Arizona, and in the revenues generated by or from such properties.  At our election, we may convert the security interest to a priority security interest on 49% of our share of proceeds from any joint venture or licensing agreement in which we may enter in order to develop the above-referenced mining claims, subject to certain conditions.  In the event we default under the Note, Beaird may institute legal action against us.  In such event, Beaird would be entitled to its collection costs, including attorney fees not to exceed 20% of the amount sought to be collected.

Copies of the Promissory Note, Security Agreement and Stock Purchase Warrant Agreement are attached as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K.  The foregoing summary of these documents is qualified in its entirety by the complete text of the documents.
