An unsecured loan of USD 2,000,000 (GBP1,238,160), from Brincan Holdings SA, a company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands was advanced to Nova Trans LLC in 2012.

The loan was guaranteed by Nova Resources Limited and the guarantee remains in place after the disposal of Nova Trans LLC. The carrying amount of the loan at disposal was USD 3,000,000.

Given that USD 200,000 has already been repaid by Nova Trans LLC in March 2014 and a payment plan is currently being finalised for the remaining balance of the loan, the directors consider the possibility of Nova Resources Limited having to repay the loan on behalf of Nova Trans LLC as being remote and thus no provision has been made in these financial statements.

None of the warrants above have been exercised in the year. The fair value of the warrants granted during the period has been calculated using the Black Scholes model assuming the inputs shown below:

 
 Grant date                        June 2013 
 Share price at grant date              1.3p 
 Exercise price                         1.5p 
 Expected warrant life in years            3 
 Risk free interest rate               1.12% 
 Expected volatility                     30% 
 Expected dividend yield                  0% 
 Fair value of option                  0.11p 
 

Volatility has been estimated by taking the historic volatility in the Company's share price over one year.

The weighted average remaining contractual life of outstanding share options and warrants is 5 years (2012: 1 year)
