ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT On January 3, 2011, Pepper Rock Resources Corp. (the "Company") entered into an Option Agreement (the "Option Agreement") with Candorado Operating Company, Ltd. ("Candorado") whereby Candorado granted to the Company the exclusive option to acquire a 70% interest (the "Option") in certain mineral claims known as Man/Prime located in British Columbia, Canada (the "Property"). The Company may exercise such option by issuing a total of 1.5 million shares of its common stock to Candorado and expending a total of $2.75 million in exploration and development of the Property over a four-year period. The Company is also obligated to pay to Candorado a royalty that is equal to two percent (2%) of the net proceeds actually paid to the Company from the sale by the Company of minerals or other products mined and removed from the Property, after deduction of smelting costs, treatment charges and penalties. Candorado is a junior exploration company primarily focused on the Quesnel Trough, located in central British Columbia. Candorado is listed on the TSX Venture Exchange. The Option requires the Company to issue to Candorado 1 million shares of its common stock upon approval of the Option Agreement by the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"), and then another 250,000 shares on the twelve (12) month and on the twenty-four (24) month anniversaries of such approval. The Company's obligation to expend a total of $2.75 million as part of its exercise of the Option is required to be done in accordance with the following schedule: i. Total expenditures of $500,000 within 12 months of the Exchange's acceptance of the Option Agreement; ii. Total expenditures of $750,000 within the period of 24 months after the Exchange's acceptance of the Option Agreement; iii. Total expenditures of $1.5 Million within the period of 36 months after the Exchange's acceptance of the Option Agreement. The Company can accelerate the expenditures on the Property at its discretion. Candorado's remaining 30% interest shall be carried through to feasibility and Candorado is not required to provide any additional funding to advance the Property. Under the Option Agreement, the Company also has the right of first refusal to acquire Candorado's remaining 30% interest at any time up to the fifth anniversary of the Exchange's acceptance of the Option Agreement. In the event that Candorado receives an offer from a third party to purchase its 30% interest, the Company shall have thirty (30) business days to match such offer.
