Item 1.02               Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

On December 11, 2014, Armada Oil, Inc. (“we” or “us”) terminated a purchase and sale agreement (the “Purchase and Sale Agreement”) with Tabbs Bay Energy, LP, a Texas limited partnership.  As previously reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 22, 2014, we entered into the Purchase and Sale Agreement on October 16, 2014 with Tabbs Bay Energy, LP, in connection with the contemplated arms’ length acquisition of certain seller’s interests in, and assumption of certain of its obligations under, eight oil and gas leases covering approximately 576 acres in Harris County, Texas, for $16,350,000 in cash.  The recent precipitous drop in oil prices and the high operating cost nature of the proposed acquisition took away the viability of the transaction, and because the closing price of light sweet crude oil on the business day prior to the expected closing date was less than $76.74, we exercised our right to terminate the Purchase and Sale Agreement.  We had delivered to the seller a $100,000 performance deposit which will be returned to us by the seller.

Attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 is a press release we issued on December 15, 2014 with the year-end update on our activities.
