Item 8.01 Other Events.

As previously disclosed in its annual report on Form 10-K, RAAM Global Energy Company (the “Company”) did not make its scheduled interest payment to the holders of the senior secured notes due October 1, 2015 (the “Senior Secured Notes”). The Company is in the process of executing a drilling program which, if successful, has the potential to add significant value in terms of new reserve additions and increased cash flow. The Pegasus well is currently being drilled as a part of this program and is estimated to reach its total depth in May 2015, and, if successfully completed, to be online and producing as early as July 2015. The Company believes there is adequate liquidity today to drill, complete, and hook-up the Pegasus well, as well as fund the April 1, 2015 interest payment, but the continuation of depressed commodity prices requires the Company to maintain adequate cash balances to ensure this important well is brought into production.

The Company intends to have discussions in the next few days with the senior lender under its term loan facility and the major holders of its Senior Secured Notes regarding this payment to see if all parties can agree to a mutually acceptable resolution regarding this matter prior to the expiration of the 30-day grace period during which the Company could elect to make the interest payment and cure any potential event of default for non-payment.
