Under the revised terms the Company is required to make one payment of $600,000, which has already been made.

South American Silver Corp. President and CEO, Phillip Brodie-Hall, said:

The extension of the Escalones option agreement is very important as it allows us to preserve cash at a time when cash is such a precious resource. This new agreement will save us $2.4 million in the current year and adds to the substantial savings we have already made this year, including many millions that will be saved from the recently announced funding agreement for the Bolivian arbitration. We believe we are positioning the company very well for the future and will continue to work hard for our shareholders.
