Explanatory
Note
This
Current Report on Form 8-K/A (the “Report”) amends the Form 8-K filed with the
SEC on October 2, 2007. This Report is being filed to correct a typographical
error in Item 7.01, second paragraph, which discusses the estimated revenue
from
the DJ properties for the third quarter of 2007. As corrected, the sentence
states that the revenue from the DJ properties includes “33 thousand MCF” of
gas, not “33 thousand MMCF’s” of gas. Excluding this change, the
document remains the same.
SECTION 1 REGISTRANT’S
BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS.
ITEM
1.01 ENTRY
INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.
On
September 26, 2007, Teton Energy Corporation (“Teton”) entered into an Asset
Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Teton Piceance LLC, the Company’s
wholly owned subsidiary (“Teton Piceance,” and collectively with Teton, the
“Company”), and Delta Petroleum Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Delta”).
Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company agreed to sell to Delta a 12.5% working
interest position, or one-half of its 25% working interest position, in certain
oil and gas rights and leasehold assets covering the 6,314 gross acres in
the Piceance Basin in Western Colorado held by Teton Piceance, in exchange
for
(i) $33 million in cash (of which a deposit of $1,000,000 to be paid to Teton
prior to closing), excluding industry standard adjustments to be determined
within 90 days after closing; and (ii) all of Delta’s rights, title and interest
in certain proved producing oil and gas properties and undeveloped acreage
located in the Denver-Julesburg (“DJ”) Basin, which Teton has valued at
approximately $5 million. The exchange of properties is effective as of July
1,
2007.
The
Company also agreed to notify Delta in the event that it decides to sell the
remainder of its 12.5% interest in the Piceance Basin, and provide Delta with
a
period of 30 days in which to make a first offer to purchase such property.
Pursuant to the Agreement, Teton may accept or reject any such offer within
five
business days of Delta’s offer. If Teton rejects Delta’s offer, Teton may sell
such property free and clear of any interest or claim of Delta within 60 days
following the earlier of (i) the date of Delta’s offer, or (ii) the expiration
of the thirty-day notice period, provided that Teton may not sell the property
within such period for cash or other consideration in an amount less than the
amount of cash or other consideration offered by Delta. Delta’s right to make a
first offer to purchase such property shall not apply in the event that such
property is sold as part of any sale of all or substantially all of the assets
of Teton and/or its affiliates or the sale of a controlling interest in the
stock of Teton or in the event of a merger; provided, however, that any
purchaser or successor in any such transaction shall take such property subject
to the right of first offer contained in the Agreement.
SECTION
7 REGULATION
FD.
ITEM
7.01 REGULATION
FD DISCLOSURE.
On
September 26, 2007, the Company announced that it entered into the Agreement
to
sell a 12.5 percent working interest position, or half of its 25 percent working
interest position, in the Piceance Basin assets to Delta, in exchange for cash
and oil and gas assets.
The
property acquired from Delta is proved producing oil and gas properties and
undeveloped acreage located in Washington and Yuma counties in Eastern Colorado.
The properties include 28 oil and gas wells and related infrastructure, as
well
as approximately 504,000 undeveloped gross acres. The estimated revenue from
the
DJ properties for the third quarter of 2007 is approximately $804,000 before
production taxes and after gathering charges. This includes approximately 12
thousand barrels of oil and 33 thousand MCF of gas. Oil sales were approximately
85% and gas sales were approximately 15% of the total estimated sales. The
Company estimates that the fair value of the DJ properties is approximately
$5
million.
The
Company intends to put commodity hedge contracts in place for the DJ property
oil and gas production in the very near term.
