EXPLANATORY NOTE On August 1, 2014, Baron Energy, Inc. (the "Company," "we," "us," "our") filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the "Original Form 8-K") regarding the completion of an acquisition of assets by us from Ricochet Energy, Inc. We are filing this Current Report on Form 8-K/A to amend the Original Form 8-K to correct a typographical error in cubic feet of gas reported in Item 2.01, replacing the information reported under Item 2.01 with this amended Item 2.01 information. ITEM 2.01 COMPLETION OF ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS Effective May 29, 2014, we entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with Ricochet Energy, Inc., a Texas corporation, and other unrelated third-party sellers specified therein (collectively, "Ricochet') to acquire all of Ricochet's right, title and interest in certain oil and gas leasehold interests, record title interests, operating rights interests, fee interests, mineral interests and overriding royalty and other related oil and gas interests in Frio and LaSalle County, Texas (the "Ricochet Agreement"). On July 28, 2014 we assigned all of our rights, title, and interest in the Ricochet Agreement to Baron Production. Baron Production consummated the Ricochet Agreement concurrently with the financing and other transactions described in Item 1.01 above, whereby it acquired working interests ranging from 89.10% to 100% in 8,060 gross acres, 14 producing wells, and 1 salt-water disposal well, with current gross production of 204 barrels of oil and 180 thousand cubic feet of gas per day, for the purchase price of $7,720,743, subject to certain adjustments. SIGNATURE Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
