Short Term Debt

4.       Short-term Debt

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2014 Solitario had a secured credit line agreement with UBS Bank, USA (“UBS”), which was secured by all of Solitario’s assets held in its UBS brokerage account, consisting primarily of Kinross shares. The UBS secured line of credit carried an interest rate which floated based upon a base rate of 2.25% plus the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) which averaged 0.16% during the period the UBS secured line of credit was outstanding during the six months ended June 30, 2014. Solitario paid its entire balance owing on the UBS secured line of credit during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and the secured line of credit was terminated.
