Item 1.01    Amendment to a Material Definitive Agreement.

As previously reported on August 24, 2017, Victory Energy Corporation (the “Company”) entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Visionary Private Equity Group I, LP, a Missouri limited partnership (“VPEG”) on August 21, 2017, pursuant to which VPEG loaned $500,000 to the Company. Such loan is evidenced by a secured convertible original issue discount promissory note (the “Note”) issued by the Company to VPEG on August 21, 2017. The Note reflects an original issue discount of $50,000 such that the principal amount of the VPEG Note is $550,000, notwithstanding the fact that the loan is in the amount of $500,000. The Note does not bear any interest in addition to the original issue discount; provided that upon the occurrence of an event of default (as defined in the Note), interest upon the unpaid principal amount shall begin to accrue at a rate equal to the lesser of (i) eight percent (8%) per annum or (ii) the maximum interest rate allowed from time to time under applicable law. The Note was to mature on September 1, 2017 and is secured by a security interest in all of the Company’s assets. VPEG has the right, exercisable at any time prior to payment in full, to convert all or any portion of the principal amount then outstanding, plus all accrued but unpaid interest, into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to $0.04 per share, subject to adjustment.
On October 11, 2017, the Company and VPEG entered into an amendment to the Loan Agreement and Note (the “Amendment”), pursuant to which the parties agreed to (i) increase the loan amount to $565,000, (ii) increase the principal amount of the Note to $621,500, reflecting an original issue discount of $56,500 and (iii) extend the maturity date to November 30, 2017.
The foregoing summary of the terms and conditions of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment filed as an exhibit to this report.

The Lender’s written notice shall be evidence of the additional loan amount absent manifest error.
6. Ratification of Remaining Provisions . Except as expressly set forth herein, all of the provisions of the Note and the Loan Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
