Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Merger Agreement
On September 17, 2014, Dune Energy, Inc. (OTCBB: DUNR), a Delaware corporation ("Dune"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Eos Petro, Inc. (OTCBB: EOPT), a Nevada corporation ("Eos"), and Eos Merger Sub. Inc., a Delaware corporation and direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Eos ("Purchaser").
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and on the terms and subject to the conditions described therein, Purchaser has agreed to conduct a cash tender offer (the "Offer") to purchase all of Dune's issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Shares"), at a price of $0.30 per Share in cash, without interest, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement (the "Offer Price").  In addition to the Offer Price, Eos and Purchaser shall provide Dune with sufficient funds to pay in full and discharge all of Dune's outstanding indebtedness and shall assume liability for all Dune trade debt, as well as fees and expenses related to the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein
Purchaser has agreed to commence the Offer as promptly as practicable, and, in any event, no later than October 9, 2014, and the Offer will expire on the 20th business day beginning with (and including) the commencement of the Offer (the "Expiration Date"); provided, however, that Purchaser:  (i) may from time to time extend the Offer for one or more periods of up to 10 business days each (or such longer period as may be agreed to by Dune), if at the scheduled Expiration Date any of the conditions of the Offer, including the Minimum Tender Condition (defined below), shall not have been satisfied or waived, until such time as such conditions are satisfied or waived to the extent permitted by the Merger Agreement or (ii) shall extend the Offer for any period required by any rule, regulation, interpretation or position of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").
The obligation of Eos and Purchaser to consummate the Offer is subject to customary conditions, including but not limited to: (a) at least a majority of the outstanding Shares (determined on a fully-diluted basis) having been validly tendered and not withdrawn prior to the Expiration Date (the "Minimum Tender Condition"); and (b) Dune's Board of Directors (the "Dune Board")  shall not have withdrawn, modified or changed in a manner adverse to Parent and Subsidiary, its recommendation of the Offer or the Merger.
Following the successful completion of the Offer, and subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, Purchaser will be merged with and into Dune, with Dune surviving as a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Eos (the "Merger"). At the effective time of the Merger, each issued and outstanding Share, other than Shares held in the treasury of Dune or owned by Eos, Purchaser or any of their affiliates and Shares held by holders who have properly demanded appraisal rights under Delaware law, will be converted into the right to receive consideration equal to the Offer Price.
In the Merger Agreement, Dune granted to Purchaser an irrevocable option (the "Top-Up Option"), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement (including the Purchaser owning after the completion of the Offer and any subsequent offering period at least a majority but less than ninety percent (90%) of all outstanding Shares), to purchase at the Offer Price a number Shares equal to the lowest number of Shares that, when added to the number of Shares owned by Eos and Purchaser, would constitute one share more than 90% of the Shares then outstanding (the "Top-Up Option Shares"). In no event will the Top-Up Option be exercisable if the number of Top-Up Option Shares would be in excess of the number of authorized but unissued Shares or Shares held in treasury that are not already reserved for other issuances. The Top-Up Option is only exercisable once in whole and not in part and only at such time as Eos and Purchaser and their affiliates hold, in the aggregate, at least a majority of the issued and outstanding Shares.
The Merger Agreement does not permit Dune to solicit alternative acquisition proposals from third parties, but still may, on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, respond to any unsolicited alternative acquisition proposal that constitutes, or the Dune Board determines would reasonably be expected to lead to, a Superior Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement),
and if the Dune Board determines in good faith that the failure to take such action could reasonably likely result in a breach of its fiduciary duties.
The Merger Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants customary for a transaction of this nature.  The Merger Agreement also includes customary termination provisions for Dune and Eos and provides that, in connection with the termination of the Merger Agreement under specified circumstances (including the acceptance of a Superior Proposal), Dune will be required to pay Eos a termination fee of $3,500,000 in cash, and under other specified circumstances, Eos will be required to pay Dune a termination fee of $5,500,000 in cash.
The Offer and Merger Agreement contemplate that Eos will need to raise financing from one or more financing sources, which shall include sufficient funds necessary to acquire all Shares of Dune pursuant to the Offer and the Top-Up Option, to repay all of Dune's outstanding indebtedness (exclusive of accrued trade debt, which will be assumed) and any other fees and expenses under the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement.
The closing of the Merger is subject to customary closing conditions, but neither the Offer nor the Merger is subject to a financing condition.   If Purchaser achieves ownership of 90% of the outstanding Shares through the Offer and any subsequent offering period, including any exercise of the Top-Up Option described above, it may effect the Merger as a short-form merger pursuant to Delaware law without a vote or any further action by Dune's shareholders. Otherwise, Eos and Purchaser will need to obtain the approval of Dune's shareholders holding a majority of the Shares to adopt the Merger Agreement prior to consummating the Merger. In this event, Dune will call and convene a shareholder's meeting to obtain this approval, and Purchaser will vote all Shares it acquires pursuant to the Offer and subsequent offering period, if any, in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement, thereby assuring approval.
Dune has agreed, upon Purchaser's request and subject to applicable law and the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, to take all such actions as so that the directors of Purchaser immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger shall be, from and after the effective time of the Merger, the directors of the Surviving Corporation (as defined in the Merger Agreement) until their successors are duly elected and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the Surviving Charter, the Surviving Bylaws (as such terms are defined in the Merger Agreement) and the Delaware General Corporations Law.
On September 16, 2014, the Dune Board approved the acceleration of the earning of six month cash bonuses pursuant to Dune's 2014 Bonus Program for Dune's employees, including Dune's named executives, for their performance for the first half of the current fiscal year.  The acceleration of the cash bonuses awarded under the 2014 Bonus Program are intended to ensure employee retention through the closing of the Merger Agreement, as the accelerated bonus is only payable to employees of Dune as of the effective time of the Merger.
Pursuant to the accelerated six month cash bonuses, the employees of the Company, excluding named executive officers, were granted an aggregate of $599,477 in retention bonuses.  The following table sets forth the six month retention bonuses payable to the named Dune executive officers under the 2014 Bonus Program:

Some of the statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and the Exchange Act. These statements are related to the expected timing, completion and effects of the proposed transaction or other future events and may be identified by terminology such as "may," "will," "should," "expects," "scheduled," "plans," "intends," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "potential," or "continue," or the negative of such terms, or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. Dune and Eos may not be able to complete the proposed transaction on the terms described above or other acceptable terms or at all because of the failure to satisfy closing conditions, including receipt of sufficient tenders, or other factors.
Do not rely on any forward-looking statement, as Eos cannot predict or control many of the factors that ultimately may affect its ability to achieve the results estimated. Eos makes no promise to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of changes in underlying factors, new information, future events or otherwise.
