Section 8
Item 8.01 — Other Events
     On February 22, 2006, Stone Energy Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that it has provided notice to Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent for the banks that are party to its Credit Agreement, of its receipt of notices of non-compliance from holders of its 6.75% Senior Subordinated Notes Due 2014 for failure to file its SEC reports and financial statements. The Credit Agreement requires, as a condition to additional borrowing, that there be no default or event of default under other debt instruments. Accordingly, the Company will be unable to borrow additional funds under the Credit Agreement until it cures any default or event of default by filing its delinquent SEC reports and financial statements. As of February 22, 2006, the Company had borrowings and letters of credit of $186 million under its Credit Agreement. The Company does not expect liquidity problems provided it files its SEC reports and financial statements in mid-March, as currently planned.
