We have studied nondissociative and dissociative electron capture by C₆₀F₃₅^- in collisions with various gas targets. It is argued that this endoergic capture process can be interpreted within a curve-crossing model of the Landau-Zener type. Cross sections as large as 10^-16cm² are measured for electron capture by 50 keV C₆₀F₃₅^- in collisions with Xe.
