Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets, Financial Statements a

Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
On June 3, 2011, Stratum Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a definitive Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with 1607920 Alberta Ltd., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of Alberta, Canada (the "Canadian Purchaser"), and SB Group Holdings, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (the "American Purchaser" and together with Canadian Purchaser, the "Purchasers'), for the sale of 100% of the capital stock of the Canadian Energy Services subsidiaries of the Company, Decca Consulting, Ltd. ("Decca Ltd.") and Decca Consulting, Inc. ("Decca Inc." and together with Decca Ltd., "Decca"). The Purchasers are private entities owned by an independent personal trust.

The total sale price was $4,600,000.00, subject to certain working capital adjustments, and consisted of the following components: (a) $100,250.00 in cash paid by the American Purchaser and $249,375.00 in cash paid by the Canadian Purchaser to the Company at closing; (b) issuance of a non-interest bearing note by the American Purchaser in favor of the Company in the principal amount of $690,000.00 (the "American Receivables Note") and issuance of a non-interest bearing note by the Canadian Purchaser in favor of the Company in the principal amount of $1,710,000.00 (the "Canadian Receivables Note" and together with the American Receivables Note, the "Receivables Notes"); and (c) issuance of an interest bearing note by the American Purchaser in favor of the Company in the principal amount of $531,875.00, payable in 48 monthly installments of principal and interest (at 8% per annum), commencing on October 1, 2011 (the "American Note") and issuance of an interest bearing note by the Canadian Purchaser in favor of the Company in the principal amount of $1,318,125.00, payable in 48 monthly installments of principal and interest (at 8% per annum), commencing on October 1, 2011 (the "Canadian Note", and together with the American Note, the "Installment Notes").

In conjunction with the issuance of the Receivables Notes and the Installment Notes by the Purchasers to the Company, the Company and the American Purchaser entered into separate Pledge and Security Agreements pursuant to which the American Purchaser granted to the Company security interests in, and pledged to the Company, 100% of the capital stock of the Decca Inc. and Decca Ltd. (effective as of the amalgamation of the Canadian Purchaser with and into Decca Ltd., as described below), respectively, until the obligations to the Company reflected in the underlying Receivables Notes and Installment Notes are fully paid. The security interests granted by the American Purchaser under the Pledge and Security Agreements are subordinated to Decca's secured debt with Century Services, Inc., which has been assumed by the American Purchaser. The Company is no longer a guarantor of such debt.

On June 6, 2011, the Canadian Purchaser amalgamated with and into Decca Ltd. and as a result of such amalgamation the obligations of the Canadian Purchaser under the Purchase Agreement for (a) the payment of all amounts due under the Canadian Note and the Canadian Receivable Notes and (b) its satisfaction of all of its other obligations under the Purchase Agreement, in each case were transferred to Decca Ltd. by operation of law.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties by the parties to each other and provides for the indemnification by the Company to the Purchasers of certain pre-closing liabilities for a three-year period, subject in most instances to a $100,000 threshold and a cap equal to the total original principal amount of the Installment Notes.

Copies of the Purchase Agreement, the Receivables Notes, the Installment Notes and the Pledge and Security Agreements are attached hereto as Exhibits.
