Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.    

Effective as of July 3, 2014, Miller Energy Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “PSA”) with Teras Oilfield Support Limited (“Teras”). The PSA is dated as of July 3, 2014, but was signed by Teras the following day. The PSA grants the Company the right to purchase the Glacier Drilling Rig #1, a Mesa 1000 carrier-mounted land drilling rig, and related equipment (the “Rig”) on or before August 8, 2014 (the “Outside Closing Date”). A payment of $700,000.00 was required in connection with the execution and delivery of the PSA, which the Company is entitled to have refunded if we fail to close by the Outside Closing Date if it should be determined that Teras lacks clear title to the Rig, there are liens or encumbrances (other than immaterial defects in title or liens consented to by the Company) or if the Rig is affected by a significant casualty prior to closing. An additional payment of $6,300,000.000 will be due if the sale is finalized.
