Item 1.01. Entry into Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 30, 2014, Aurora Energy Partners, a Texas general partnership (“Aurora”) of which Victory Energy Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), is the managing partner and owner of a 50% partnership interest, entered into a purchase and sale agreement (the “PSA”) with TELA Garwood Limited, LP (the “Seller”).  Pursuant to the PSA, Aurora agreed to acquire 10% of the Seller’s right, title and interest in certain oil and gas assets (the “Acquired Assets”) located in a project area in the Permian Basin, Texas known as the Fairway Project (the “Fairway Acquisition”).  The total purchase price for the Acquired Assets will be approximately $5.8 million. The closing of the transactions contemplated by the PSA will occur on two separate dates, those being June 30, 2014 (the “First Closing Date”) and on or about July 31, 2014 (the “Second Closing Date”).  The second closing is subject to the completion of certain outstanding lease conveyances and certain other customary closing conditions for transactions of this type, including, among other things, (1) the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the parties as of the Second Closing Date, (2) the execution of certain ancillary closing documents and (3) the performance by the parties of all material obligations, covenants and agreements contained in the PSA.  On the second closing date, Aurora will pay the outstanding balance of approximately $3.3 million, subject to normal closing adjustments, to the seller and the seller will complete the balance of assignments.  The Fairway acquisition is effective as of May 1, 2014.
 
Aurora and the Seller made customary representations, warranties and covenants in the PSA.

The foregoing description of the PSA is not complete and is qualified by reference to the full text of the PSA, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and is incorporated herein by reference.

The PSA has been filed as an exhibit to this Current Report on Form 8-K to provide investors and security holders with more complete information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about the Company, Aurora or the Seller. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the PSA were made only for purposes of the PSA and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to the PSA, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures exchanged between the parties in connection with the execution of the PSA. The representations and warranties may have been made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the PSA instead of establishing those matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Investors are not third-party beneficiaries under the PSA and should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company, Aurora or the Seller or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the PSA, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the public disclosures of the Company.

The information provided under Item 1.01 in this Current Report on Form 8-K regarding the PSA is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.01.
 
On the First Closing Date, Aurora made a cash payment of approximately  $2.5 million to the seller and the seller assigned a 10% working interest in its Darwin, BOA and Wagga Wagga production leases and in various other leases scheduled for future development. 
 
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
 
On July 2, 2014, the Company issued a press release announcing the Fairway Acquisition. The press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
 
In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the foregoing information, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information and Exhibit be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

The foregoing summary of the PSA and the acquisition of the Acquired Assets contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements include those regarding the expected consummation of the second closing and other statements that are not historical in nature. No assurance can be given that actual future results will not differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K. Although the Company believes that all such statements contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K are based on reasonable assumptions, there are numerous variables of an unpredictable nature or outside of the Company’s control that could affect the Company’s future results and the value of its shares. Each investor must assess and bear the risk of uncertainty inherent in the forward-looking statements contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K. Please refer to the Company’s filings with the SEC for additional discussion of risks and uncertainties that may affect the Company’s actual future results. The Company undertakes no obligation to update the forward-looking statements contained herein.
