~~Pursuant~~Item to1.03 ~~the~~Bankruptcy ~~requirements~~or ~~of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized~~Receivership.

On October 15, 2018, AG&E ~~HOLDINGS~~Holdings, ~~INC~~Inc. ~~By:~~(the ~~/s/~~“Company”), ~~Francis~~together Xwith its wholly-owned subsidiary American Gaming & Electronics, Inc. ~~McCarthy~~(collectively, ~~Name:~~the ~~Francis~~“Debtors”) Xfiled voluntary petitions (the “Bankruptcy Petitions”) for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code, 11 U.S.C. ~~McCarthy~~§§ 101–1532 ~~Title:~~(the ~~Chief~~“Bankruptcy ~~Financial~~Code”) ~~Officer~~in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The Debtors’ chapter 11 cases (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) are being jointly administered by the Bankruptcy Court under the caption In re American Gaming & Electronics, ~~Treasurer~~Inc., et al. Case No. 18-30507. The Debtors will continue to operate their businesses as “debtors-in-possession” under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and ~~Secretary~~in accordance with applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Bankruptcy Court.

~~Date: September~~On 13October 17, 2018, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order in the Chapter 11 Cases that requires any person who currently or in the future beneficially holds 4.5% or more (currently approximately 762,885 shares) of the Company’s common stock (a “Substantial Shareholder”) to provide (i) notice to the Bankruptcy Court and the Company of such status within 20 calendar days’ of the order or 10 calendar days after such person or entity becomes a Substantial Shareholder, (ii) 30 days’ prior notice to the Bankruptcy Court and the Company of any proposed transfer of the common stock that would result in any person or entity becoming a Substantial Shareholder, and (iii) 30 days’ prior notice to the Bankruptcy Court and the Company of any proposed transfer of the common stock that would decrease the shareholdings of any Substantial Shareholder.

Cautionary Note Regarding the Chapter 11 Cases

Management believes that the Company’s stockholders will not receive any payment or other recovery in exchange for their common stock in the Chapter 11 Cases, and that the Company’s outstanding securities will be cancelled and extinguished upon confirmation of a restructuring plan by the Bankruptcy Court. Trading prices for the Company’s common stock may bear little or no relation to its value. Accordingly, the Company urges extreme caution with respect to existing and future investments in its securities.

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or Obligation under an Off -Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

The information set forth in Item 1.01 above of this Current Report with respect to the DIP Facility is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.04 Triggering Events That Accelerate or Increase a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement.

The filing of the Bankruptcy Petitions constituted an Event of Default under the Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of November 22, 2017, between AG&E and North Mill (as amended from time to time). As a result, all unpaid principal and interest outstanding thereunder, in the amount of approximately $507,658 at the time of the filing of the Bankruptcy Petitions, became immediately due and payable. Efforts to enforce such obligations are automatically stayed as a result of the Bankruptcy Petitions, and North Mill’s rights of enforcement are subject to the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code.
