Explanatory Note

As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on September 5, 2018, by Viking Energy Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement to acquire oil and gas leases and related assets in Texas and Louisiana for an estimated purchase price of approximately $100,000,000, and with a closing deadline of October 31, 2018. This Current Report on Form 8-K is being filed to disclose the amendment of that agreement, extending the closing deadline to the earlier of: (i) 10 days from the date on which the Sellers (defined below) obtain consents from applicable landowners authorizing the transfer to the Company of the oil and gas leases representing 80% of the total PDP (PV10) value of the Purchased Assets (defined below); or (ii) December 31, 2018.

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On September 2, 2018, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Bodel Holdings, L.L.C., Cleveland Holdings, L.L.C., Delbo Holdings, L.L.C., DeQuincy Holdings, L.L.C., Gulf Coast Working Partners, L.L.C., Oakley Holdings, L.L.C., SamJam Energy, L.L.C., and Perry Point Holdings, L.L.C., all Texas limited liability companies (collectively the “Sellers”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to purchase from the Sellers (the “Acquisition”) all of the Sellers' right, title, interest and estate, real or personal, recorded or unrecorded, movable or immovable, tangible or intangible, in and to certain oil and gas leases in Texas and Louisiana (collectively the “Purchased Assets”).

On November 1, 2018, the Company and the Sellers entered into the First Amendment to Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “First Amendment”) to modify the Agreement to (i) extend the closing deadline to the earlier date (the “Closing Date”) of: (a) 10 days from the date on which the Sellers obtain consents from applicable landowners authorizing the transfer to the Company of the oil and gas leases representing 80% of the total PDP (PV10) value of the Purchased Assets, or (b) December 31, 2018; (ii) provide for a portion of the purchase price for the Purchased Assets in respect of which post-closing consent to transfer is required from the State of Louisiana or State of Texas, to be paid into escrow at closing to provide the Sellers up to 180 days thereafter to secure the requisite post-closing governmental agency approvals; (iii) upon the Sellers obtaining third-party consents to assign a portion of the oil and gas leases representing at least 80% of the PDP (PV10) value of the Purchased Assets, require the parties to close, on the Closing Date, on the purchase of those assets (provided that no single purchased asset represents more than 15% of the total PDP (PV10) value of the assets purchased at the closing); (iv) provide the Sellers from the date of the first closing until March 21, 2019, to obtain any remaining third-party consents required to transfer any of the Purchased Assets not otherwise transferred to the Company on the first closing; and (v) to make other changes described in the First Amendment.

The foregoing description of the First Amendment is qualified by reference to the full text of the First Amendment, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.2 and incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.
