('Vaaldiam' or 'the Company') VAA reports that it has agreed with Freegold Ventures Limited ('Freegold') FVL to restructure the payment of $854,973.68 owed by Freegold to Vaaldiam which was due to be repaid in full on October 1, 2011.

Vaaldiam CEO Robert Jackson said "Freegold is making excellent progress with its drilling programs at its gold properties in Alaska.
