ITEM 1.01    ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.

        On June 11, 2015 Venoco, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a new $75 million term loan facility (the "new facility") with Deutsche Bank AG. The new facility was fully drawn at closing and matures in December 2017, subject to acceleration in certain circumstances. The Company used the proceeds from the new facility to repay all amounts outstanding under its prior term loan facility entered into in April 2015 (the "prior facility"), and the prior facility was then terminated. Amounts borrowed under the new facility bear interest at LIBOR plus 4.0% per annum. Venoco may repay amounts borrowed under the new facility at any time, subject to certain make-whole payment obligations. The facility contains representations, warranties and covenants typical for instruments of this type. The Company's obligations under the facility are secured by a first priority lien on cash collateral and are guaranteed by the Company's subsidiaries that guarantee its first lien secured notes and second lien secured notes. The new facility is governed by a term loan, security and guaranty agreement among the Company, the guarantors and the lenders party thereto.

        The foregoing description of the new facility does not purport to describe all of the terms of the term loan, security and guaranty agreement, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 1.02    TERMINATION OF A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.

        As described in Item 1.01, on June 11, 2015, approximately $75 million of borrowings under the new facility were used to repay all amounts outstanding under the prior facility, which was then terminated.

ITEM 2.03    CREATION OF A DIRECT FINANCIAL OBLIGATION OR AN OBLIGATION UNDER AN OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENT OF A REGISTRANT.

        The information set forth in Item 1.01 is incorporated by reference herein to the extent required.

ITEM 8.01    OTHER EVENTS.

        As previously reported, on April 2, 2015, the Company entered into agreements relating to three new debt instruments: (i) first lien senior secured notes with an aggregate principal amount of $175 million, (ii) second lien senior secured notes with an aggregate principal amount of $150 million and (iii) the prior facility. Agreements relating to these instruments, and the new facility, are filed as exhibits hereto.
