One of the Company’s Australian subsidiaries is party to an agreement to provide a revolving loan to Middlemount.

The revolving loan bears interest at 10% per annum and expires on December 31, 2023. There was no outstanding revolving loan at December 31, 2022 or 2021.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company established a valuation allowance on Middlemount’s net deferred tax position of approximately $33 million primarily based upon recent cumulative losses. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company determined that the valuation allowance was no longer necessary based on recent cumulative earnings and expectation of future earnings. The determination resulted in approximately $33 million of income related to the release of the previously established valuation allowance.
