Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On November 16, 2007, Galaxy Energy Corporation (“Galaxy”), its subsidiaries, and the holders of the senior secured convertible notes issued by Galaxy on May 31, 2005 (the “2005 Notes”) entered into an Amendment Agreement.
The Amendment Agreement amended the 2005 Notes and the related Securities Purchase Agreement to effect the following:
| · | Monthly principal payments of $500,000; |
| · | A $6,000,000 principal payment by March 1, 2008; and |
| · | A final balloon payment of any remaining amounts owed under the 2005 Notes by October 1, 2008. |
In addition, cash proceeds from any sales of Galaxy’s assets are to be used to repay the 2005 Notes.
The Amendment Agreement allows Galaxy to pay its subordinated debt with restricted shares of Galaxy stock that cannot be transferred or resold until the 2005 Notes are paid in full. The fixed conversion price of the 2005 Notes will be lowered to the price used by Galaxy to pay its subordinated debt.
This summary description of the Amendment Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the document that is filed as an exhibit hereto.
