**Item 3.02 Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities.**

On January 17, 2023 and January 18, 2023, White River Operating LLC (the "Operator") and White River Energy Corp (the "Company") entered into two separate Participation Agreements (the "Agreements") with two investors (the "Investors"), pursuant to which, the parties agreed to the following: (i) the Investors agreed to pay the Company a total of $150,000, with the proceeds to be used for drilling one or more wells on the Company's mineral lease located in Rankin County, Mississippi in exchange for a total of three units, with each unit comprised of the following: (A) a 1.0412490% working interest and (B) a 0.7809370% net revenue interest in such wells.

Under the Agreements, each Investor also agreed to participate in the drilling of the initial test well, and each party may also drill a substitute well if the test well is abandoned prior to reaching the agreed upon depth. Further, for any well drilled after the initial test well and substitute well referenced in the preceding sentence, the Investors agreed to the same cost sharing arrangements as provided for the initial test well.

The foregoing description of the terms of the Agreements and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the copy of the Form of Agreement, which is included as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
