Item 1.01.      Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On February 27, 2015, PetroShare Corp. (the "Company") accepted an assignment of an oil and gas lease ("Assignment") from Kingdom Resources, LLC, a privately-held limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Colorado ("Kingdom"), under which Kingdom assigned to the Company its interest in an oil and gas lease covering approximately 309 net acres in sections of Township 1 South, Range 67 West of the 6th P.M., located in Adams County, Colorado.  The Assignment is for a primary term of five (5) years, beginning November 24, 2014.  Acceptance of the Assignment requires the Company to pay a landowner's bonus to the lessor equal to $634,865, a contractor fee of $63,486 to Kingdom and expenses of $26,901, for a total payment of $725,252.  The Assignment conveys to the Company an 80% net revenue interest in the acreage, after accounting for landowner and other royalties.

  The Assignment was made pursuant to an Agreement for Services dated November 12, 2014 between the Company and Kingdom ("Services Agreement"). Under the terms of the Services Agreement, Kingdom has agreed to pursue the acquisition of oil and gas leases and other mineral interests located in a contract area within the Wattenberg Field of northeast Colorado on behalf of the Company.  If presented with an assignment or other proposed conveyance of leases or other mineral interests in the contract area, the Company has the exclusive right for a period of five days to accept the proposed assignment.  If the Company does not accept the assignment, the Services Agreement provides that Kingdom may retain the interest itself or offer it to a third party.   The Company accepted the Assignment on February 27, 2015.  A copy of the Services Agreement is attached to this report as Exhibit 10.1 and the summary of such Exhibit in this report is expressly qualified by reference to such Exhibit.

Closing of the acquisition is expected to occur on or before April 13, 2015, subject to receipt of sufficient working capital by the Company.
