Item 2.01  Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On May 6, 2011 Paxton Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) completed its acquisition of certain assets from Montecito Offshore, L.L.C. (“Montecito”) pursuant to the Asset Sale Agreement, entered into on March 28, 2011 and amended on April 7, 2011 and May 2, 2011 (the “Montecito Agreement”) between the Company and Montecito.  Pursuant to the terms of the Montecito Agreement, Montecito agreed to sell us a 70% leasehold working interest, with a net revenue interest of 51.975% of certain oil and gas leases owned by Montecito, for $1,500,000, a subordinated promissory note in the amount of $500,000, and 15 million shares of our Common Stock.  The subordinated promissory note is subordinated to the secured convertible notes issued by the Company in the private placement that closed on May 5, 2011.

The oil and gas leases are located in the Vermillion 179 tract (“VM 179”), which is in the shallow waters of the Gulf of Mexico offshore from Louisiana, adjacent to Exxon's VM 164 #A9 well. The Company has obtained an independent reserve report relating to proven and probable reserves in the VM 179 area, which is approximately 547 acres in size.  No drilling or production has commenced as of yet, and the Company has the option of being the operator at VM 179 or engaging another party as operator.

A copy of the press release that discusses these matters is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to, and incorporated by reference in, this report.
