Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Blast Energy Services, Inc. (the “Company” or “Blast”) appeared in bankruptcy court on November 28, 2007 for a hearing to confirm the First Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”) for Blast and its 100% owned subsidiary, Eagle Domestic Drilling Operations LLC.

Blast reported to the Court that the results of the ballots cast by creditors and shareholders overwhelmingly approved the Plan. The Company also requested a confirmation hearing continuance in order to complete efforts to raise the $3 million in funds to exit bankruptcy as described in the Plan.

The Court continued the confirmation hearing until Wednesday January 30, 2008, by entering into an agreed order (see Exhibit 10.1) between the Debtors (as defined in the Plan), the Creditors Committee (as defined in the Plan) and Berg McAfee Companies LLC, a related party (“Berg McAfee Companies”). The material terms and conditions of the agreed order are summarized below:

 
·
Berg McAfee Companies has provided an irrevocable guarantee to back stop the fundraising up to a minimum level of $4 million;

 
·
Unsecured creditors will be paid 100% of their claims in cash on the effective date, rather than in the Plan where unsecured creditors were to be paid 35% in cash on the effective date and 65% payable in five-year notes;

 
·
Berg McAfee Companies or its affiliates will provide an additional $200,000 to $300,000 in Debtor-in-Possession (“DIP”) financing, subject to court approval;

 
·
All DIP financing provided will convert into equity at the rate stipulated in the Plan of $0.20 per share; and

 
·
All cash from the funding will be in the escrow account by January 25, 2008 at the latest.
