Explanatory Note

 

On January 20, 2011, Gold Resource Corporation (the “Company”) filed a registration statement on Form S-8 (Registration No. 333-171779) with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission to register 9,047,996 shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share, authorized under the Company’s Amended and Restated Non-Qualified Stock Option and Stock Grant Plan, (“Prior Plan”).  The registration statement also covered an indeterminate number of shares of common stock as may have become issuable as a result of stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions in accordance with anti-dilution provisions. The Company paid a registration fee of $28,583.35 at that time to register the securities.

 

On April 18, 2016, the Company adopted the Gold Resource Corporation 2016 Equity Plan (“New Plan”) which was approved by its shareholders and became effective on June 15, 2016. Pursuant to the terms of the New Plan, as of the effective date, no new shares may be issued under the Prior Plan and any shares which may be issued upon exercise of options outstanding under the Prior Plan that expire or are forfeited, canceled or otherwise terminated after the effective date of the New Plan shall become eligible for issuance under the New Plan. Pursuant to the undertaking that the Company disclose a material change in the plan of distribution, the Company is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the registration statement to reflect that the registered shares may be issued under the New Plan once they are no longer issuable pursuant to the Prior Plan.
