ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.

As previously disclosed by KAL Energy, Inc. (“ KAL ”), KAL faces various uncertainties in its continued efforts to realize its goal of commercializing its rights to the concession entitled PT Graha Panca Karsa (“ GPK ”). Such uncertainties include, third party claims to the rights to GPK, possible criminal activities by certain individuals associated with the titleholders to GPK, delays in the mining license extension application for GPK, the unknown potential negative impacts of the Bill on Mineral and Coal Mining as passed by the Indonesian Parliament in January 2009 and a general lack of capital liquidity. Despite these uncertainties, KAL has continued to express confidence in its rights to the economic benefits of the GPK project.

Notwithstanding KAL’s stance with respect to its interests in GPK, due to the increasing uncertainties as enumerated above, in particular KAL’s lack of funding, and the significant legal expenses associated with defending its bundle of rights in GPK, KAL has decided to cease this course of disadvantageous legal effort and expense, but rather realize guaranteed financial value from its bundle of rights in GPK by relinquishing all of its claims to GPK for the consideration of US$5,000,000, as described in more detail below.

On September 29, 2009, KAL, its subsidiary Thatcher Mining PTE, Ltd. (“ Thatcher ”), Romo Nitiyudo Wachjo, Kangaroo Resources Ltd. (“ KRL ”) and GPK entered into a Deed of Termination and Release (the “ Agreement ”) pursuant to which Thatcher and GPK agree to, among other things, terminate the Cooperation and Investment Agreement dated on or around January 7, 2007 by and among GPK, Thatcher, Fitri S Astuty Goodwin and Sri Purwani (the “ Cooperation Agreement ”), which is the agreement whereby Thatcher and KAL obtained the economic rights to GPK. The termination of the Cooperation Agreement serves to relinquish all claims of KAL and its affiliates to GPK.

Payment Obligations of KRL Under the Agreement

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, KRL is obligated make the following payments to Thatcher: (i) US$100,000 on the date which is three (3) days from the date of the Agreement (the “ First Payment ”); (ii) US$2,400,000 on the date which is thirty (30) days from the date of the Agreement (the “ Second Payment ”); and (iii) US$2,500,000 on the date which is sixty (60) days from the date of the Agreement (the “ Third Payment ”). KRL may elect to make any of the above payments prior to the relevant payment dates, provided that the minimum payments made are at least US$250,000. Further, KRL may elect to extend the Second Payment for forty-five (45) days by providing notice and submitting a penalty payment of US$50,000 to Thatcher. If KRL makes such an election, the Third Payment will automatically be extended for forty-five (45) days. KRL may extend the Third Payment for an additional forty-five (45) days by providing notice and submitting an additional penalty payment of US$50,000 to Thatcher.
