Item 1.01   Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
     On October 5, 2010, Resolute Natural Resources Company, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Resolute Energy Corporation (the “Company”), entered into Amendment No. 3 (the “Amendment”) to the Product Sale and Purchase Contract dated July 1, 2007 (the “Contract”) with Kinder Morgan CO2 Company, L.P. (“Kinder Morgan”). The Contract provides the Company with its principal source of CO2, a crucial component for development of its properties in Aneth Field. The Amendment, which was made effective from September 1, 2010 (i) extends the term of the Contract from December 31, 2016 to December 31, 2020, (ii) increases overall volumes of CO2 available for purchase by the Company and increases the volume of CO2 committed to be purchased by the Company to an aggregate of approximately 176.5 Bcf over the term of the Contract, and (iii) reduces the price of CO2 to the Company. In addition, the Amendment gives the Company greater flexibility to adjust annual volumes of CO2 purchased to match requirement levels as they vary from time to time.
