Item 1.03 Bankruptcy or Receivership.
 
Bankruptcy Filing
 
On January 29, 2010, Cross Canyon Energy Corp. (“we”, “us” or “Debtor”) filed a voluntary petition (In re: Cross Canyon Energy Corp., Debtor, Case No. 10-30747) for reorganization (the “Chapter 11 Case”) under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code, 11 U.S.C. §§ 101 et seq., as amended (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division (the “Bankruptcy Court”).
 
The existing officers and directors of the Debtor will continue to oversee operation of the Debtor’s business as a debtor-in-possession, pursuant to sections 1107 and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code, and subject to the requirements of the Bankruptcy Code, which include court approval of matters outside the ordinary course of business.
 
Plan Support and Lock-Up Agreement; Prepetition Solicitation
 
On January 28, 2010, we entered into a Plan Support and Lock-Up Agreement (the “Plan Support Agreement”) with the holders of 100% of (i) the indebtedness outstanding under our senior secured credit facility (the “Prepetition Secured Lenders”) and (ii) our outstanding Series C Preferred Stock (the “Prepetition Preferred Stockholder”, together with the Prepetition Secured Lenders, the “Consenting Holders”).  Pursuant to the Plan Support Agreement, the Consenting Holders agreed to vote in favor of and support a proposed plan of reorganization of the Debtor under the Bankruptcy Code that is consistent in all material respects with the Prepackaged Plan of Reorganization Pursuant to Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code of Cross Canyon Energy Corp. that we filed with the Bankruptcy Court on January 29, 2010 (the “Plan”).  The Plan Support Agreement may be terminated under certain circumstances by the Consenting Holders, including if (i) the Bankruptcy Court does not confirm the Plan on or prior to March 16, 2010 and (ii) we do not consummate the restructuring transactions provided for in the Plan on or prior to  March 31, 2010.
 
Pursuant to the Plan Support Agreement, we commenced a solicitation of the Prepetition Secured Lenders and the Prepetition Preferred Stockholder, as the only impaired classes entitled to vote on our proposed Plan.  As part of the prepetition solicitation, the Prepetition Secured Lenders and the Prepetition Preferred Stockholder each received copies of the Plan, the related disclosure statement (together with various exhibits thereto, the “Disclosure Statement”) and a ballot requesting each of them to accept or reject the Plan.  On January 29, 2010, the Company received ballots from all of the Prepetition Secured Lenders and the Prepetition Preferred Stockholder accepting the Plan.
 
The Plan
 
Below is a brief summary of the material terms of the Plan, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 hereto.  Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Plan.
 
•   CIT First Lien Lender Claims. Under the CIT First Lien Credit Agreement, the CIT First Lien Lender previously advanced to us the sum of $11.5 million.  The claims of the CIT First Lien Lender (Class 4(a) under the Plan) are impaired. Upon the Effective Date of the Plan, the CIT First Lien Lender shall receive the following in the reorganized Debtor: (a) the obligation to be evidenced by the New Senior Secured Credit Facility (in the principal amount of $10 million), and (b) shares of New Senior Preferred Stock in an amount sufficient to liquidate the balance of the Class 4(a) Claims (based on the liquidation preference of the entire New Senior Preferred Stock issue of $23.5 million).
 
 
 

 
 
•   CIT Second Lien Lender Claims. Under the CIT Second Lien Credit Agreement, the CIT Second Lien Lender previously advanced to us the sum of $22.0 million.  The claims of the CIT Second Lien Lender (Class 4(b) under the Plan) are impaired. Upon the Effective Date of the Plan, the CIT Second Lien Lender shall receive the following in the reorganized Debtor: (a) shares of New Senior Preferred Stock, with a liquidation preference equal to $23.5 million, less the share of the New Senior Preferred Stock allocated to Class 4(a), and (b) 95% of the New Common Stock.
 
•   Trade Creditors and Customers. The Debtor expects to continue normal operations during the Chapter 11 Case. The Plan contemplates payment in full of claims held by trade creditors and uninterrupted performance of agreements with customers in accordance with existing business terms.
 
•   Class C Preferred Stock Interests.  Upon the Effective Date of the Plan, the holder of the Class C Preferred Stock Interests (Class 10) shall receive shares of New Junior Preferred Stock with a liquidation value of $100,000.
 
•   Current Common Stock Interests; Cessation as Publicly Reporting Company. On the Effective Date, all existing equity in the Debtor will be cancelled and holders of our common stock immediately prior to the Effective Date will receive five percent (5%) of the New Common Stock in the reorganized Debtor, on a pro rata basis.  On the Effective Date, the Company will no longer file periodic and or other reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the New Common Stock will no longer be listed for trading on any exchange.
 
•   Administrative, Tax and other Priority Claims.  These claims are not impaired and each holder of an allowed Administrative, Tax or other Priority Claim is to be paid in full, in cash, under the Plan.
 
The Debtors have requested that the Bankruptcy Court confirm the Plan as quickly as possible. However, the Plan will be subject to obtaining all necessary approvals, including but not limited to judicial determinations of confirmability, and there can be no assurance, therefore, as to how long it may take to complete the Debtor’s reorganization process.
