ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.
On January 12, 2011, GeoResources, Inc. (the "
Company
"), VILLCo Energy, L.L.C. ("
VE
") and Chandler Energy, LLC ("
Chandler
" and with VE, collectively, the "
Selling Shareholders
"), entered into an underwriting agreement (the "
Underwriting Agreement
") with Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as representative of the underwriters named therein (the "
Underwriters
"), providing for the offer and sale (the "
Offering
") in a firm commitment underwritten public offering of an aggregate of 6,164,000 shares of the Company's common stock (the "
Shares
"), of which 5,175,000 Shares (including full exercise of the underwriters' option to purchase an additional 675,000 Shares) were offered and sold by the Company and 989,000 Shares (including full exercise of the underwriters' option to purchase an additional 129,000 Shares)  were offered and sold by the Selling Shareholders, at $25.00 per share, less underwriting discounts and commissions.  The Offering was registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "
Securities Act
"), pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-170832) and the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-144831), each supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("
Commission
") on January 13, 2011 pursuant to Rule 424(b)(5).  The Offering was consummated on January 19, 2011.  The Legal Opinion relating to the Shares issued by the Company in the Offering is attached hereto as Exhibit 5.1.
Chandler is owned by Collis P. Chandler, III, an executive officer and director of the Company.  Michael A. Vlasic, a director of the Company, is the executive manager of the manager of VE.
Estimated net proceeds to the Company from the Offering are approximately $122.6 million (including the Underwriters' exercise in full of their option to purchase additional shares), after estimated fees and expenses.  The Company expects to utilize approximately $87.0 million of the net proceeds it received from the Offering to immediately repay in full the outstanding balance under its Credit Facility.  The Company expects to use the remaining net proceeds, along with its cash flow and Credit Facility availability, primarily to fund its drilling and development expenditures on its acreage in the Bakken Trend in North Dakota and Montana, and its acreage in the Eagle Ford Trend in Texas, and for incremental leasehold acquisitions and general corporate purposes.
All of the Underwriters or their affiliates have performed commercial banking, investment banking or advisory services for the Company from time to time for which they have received customary fees and reimbursement of expenses.  The Underwriters may, from time to time, engage in transactions with and perform services for the Company in the ordinary course of their business for which they may receive customary fees and reimbursement of expenses.  In addition, of the estimated net proceeds of this Offering, $87.0 million will be used to repay borrowings under the Company's Credit Facility.  Because an affiliate of Wells Fargo Securities, LLC is a lender and the administrative agent under the Company's Credit Facility, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and its affiliate, and in some cases agents or managers for the lender, may receive more than 5% of the proceeds of the Offering (not including underwriting discounts and commissions).
In addition, in the ordinary course of their various business activities, the Underwriters and their respective affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers and such investment and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of the Company.  The Underwriters and their respective affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or instruments and may, at any time, hold, or recommend to client that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities or instruments.  Furthermore, an affiliate of Wells Fargo Securities, LLC is a significant counterparty to certain of the hedging instruments of the Company.
The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the parties and indemnification and contribution provisions under which the Company and the selling shareholders, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other, have agreed to indemnify each other against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.  Also, the Company and the selling shareholders have agreed to indemnify each other against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
The foregoing description of the Underwriting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Underwriting Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 1.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
