25-Jan-2013

Change in Directors or Principal Officers, Regulation FD Disclosure, Financial State


Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On January 22, 2013, effective immediately, Robert E. Creager resigned from his positions as a member of the board of directors, as Chairman of the Audit Committee and as a member of the Nominating, Corporate Governance and Ethics Committee of GeoMet, Inc. (the "Company"). The resignation was not the result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company's operations, policies or practices. Mr. Creager's resignation was tendered in an attempt to support the Company's continuing efforts to reduce costs in the face of continuing low natural gas prices. In view of Mr. Creager's resignation, the Company's board of directors created the newly combined Compensation, Nominating, Corporate Governance and Ethics Committee. The members of the newly formed committee include Michael Y. McGovern, James C. Crain, and Stanley L. Graves, the committee's chairman. Additionally, the Audit Committee was reconstituted. The members of the reconstituted committee include Stanley L. Graves, Gary S. Weber, and James C. Crain, the committee's chairman.

On January 23, 2013, the Company announced that its newly combined Compensation, Nominating, Corporate Governance and Ethics Committee will continue to review the composition of the Company's board of directors. At this time, the Company anticipates that the committee will not nominate Charles D. Haynes for election to the Company's board of directors at the annual meeting of stockholders expected to be held in May 2013.



Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On January 24, 2013, the Company announced the resignation of a member of its board of directors and that another member of the board is not expected to be nominated for election at the next annual meeting planned to be held in May 2013. To support the Company's continuing efforts to reduce costs in the face of low natural gas prices, Robert E. Creager resigned his board position effective January 22, 2013 and Charles D. Haynes is not expected to be nominated for election. Following these changes, the committee structure of the board of directors will change. Stanley L. Graves will chair the newly combined Compensation, Nominating, Corporate Governance and Ethics Committee and James C. Crain will chair the Audit Committee. A copy of the press release dated January 24, 2013 is furnished hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
