Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Underwriting Agreement
     On November 2, 2011, Enduro Royalty Trust (the “Trust”) entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”), by and among Enduro Resource Partners LLC (“Enduro”), the Trust and the underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”), with respect to the offer and sale (the “Offering”) by Enduro of 13,200,000 trust units representing beneficial interests in the Trust (“Trust Units”) at a price of $22.00 per Trust Unit ($20.625 per Trust Unit, net of underwriting discounts and commissions). Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, Enduro also granted the Underwriters an option for a period of 30 days to purchase up to an additional 1,980,000 Trust Units to cover over-allotments, if any, on the same terms. The Trust will not receive any proceeds from the Offering.
     The material terms of the Offering are described in the prospectus, dated November 2, 2011 (the “Prospectus”), filed by the Trust and Enduro with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on November 4, 2011 pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Offering is registered with the Commission pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1, as amended (File No. 333-174225), initially filed by the Trust and Enduro on May 16, 2011.
     The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements of the Trust, and customary conditions to closing, obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The Trust has agreed to indemnify the Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments the Underwriters may be required to make because of any of those liabilities.
     As more fully described in the section entitled “Underwriting” in the Prospectus, certain of the Underwriters and their respective affiliates have, from time to time, performed, and may in the future perform, various financial advisory and investment banking services for the Trust, for which they received or will receive customary expenses.
     The foregoing description is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Underwriting Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated in this Item 1.01 by reference.
Conveyance of Net Profits Interest
     Effective November 8, 2011, Enduro Operating LLC, a Texas limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of Enduro (“Enduro Operating”), and Enduro Texas LLC, a Texas limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of Enduro (“Enduro Texas”), merged, with each entity surviving the merger. By virtue of the merger, Enduro Texas will retain all rights, title and interest to 80% of the net profits interest (the “Net Profits Interest”) in certain oil and natural gas properties in Texas, Louisiana and New Mexico. Enduro Operating and Enduro Texas have entered into a Conveyance of Net Profits Interest, dated effective as of July 1, 2011 (the “Conveyance”), to effect the transfer of the Net Profits Interest from Enduro Operating to Enduro Texas. The description of the Net Profits Interest and the Conveyance contained in the section entitled “Computation of Net Profits” of the Prospectus is incorporated herein by reference.
     On November 8, 2011, the merger (the “Trust Merger”) of Enduro Texas with and into the Trust pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated November 3, 2011 (the “Trust Merger Agreement”), became effective. Under the terms of the Trust Merger Agreement, the Trust will continue as the surviving entity, and the limited liability company interest in Enduro Texas held by Enduro prior to the effective time of the Trust Merger converted into the right to receive 33,000,000 Trust Units. Further, by virtue of the Trust Merger, the Trust will retain all rights, title and interest to the Net Profits Interest (including the right to enforce the Conveyance against Enduro Operating, as grantor). On November 8, 2011, the Trust, Enduro Operating and Enduro Texas entered into a Supplement to Conveyance of Net Profits Interest (the “Conveyance Supplement”) to acknowledge that The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee of the Trust (the “Trustee”), will be deemed the grantee under the Conveyance and a party thereto.

The holders are entitled to demand a maximum of five such registrations.
