Second Lien Note Exchange
On November 3, 2021, at a special meeting of shareholders, the Company obtained the requisite shareholder approval for the issuance
of approximately 5.5 million shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for an aggregate of $197.0 million principal amount of Second Lien Notes. The Exchange was completed on November 5, 2021 and the exchanged Second Lien Notes were immediately cancelled. See “Note 7 - Borrowings” for discussion of the exchange of Second Lien Notes for Company common stock.
Primexx Acquisition
During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company issued approximately 9.0 million shares of common stock in connection with the Primexx Acquisition, inclusive of the shares of common stock issued to those certain interest owners who exercised their option to sell their interest in the properties included in the Primexx Acquisition. See “Note 4 - Acquisitions and Divestitures” for additional details.
November 2020 Warrants
The Company issued approximately 1.75 million November 2020 Warrants in conjunction with the November 2020 Second Lien Notes that were issued in the senior unsecured note exchange described above. The Company determined that the November 2020 Warrants qualify as freestanding financial instruments, but meet the scope exception in ASC 815 - Derivatives and Hedging as they are indexed to the Company’s common stock. As such, the November 2020 Warrants meet the applicable criteria for equity classification and are reflected in additional paid in capital in the consolidated balance sheets. See “Note 7 - Borrowings” for additional information.
Warrant Exercises
During the year ended December 31, 2021, holders of the September 2020 Warrants and November 2020 Warrants provided notice and exercised all outstanding warrants. As a result of the exercises, the Company issued a total of 6.9 million shares of its common stock in exchange for 9.0 million outstanding warrants determined on a net shares settlement basis. See “Note 8 - Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” and “Note 9 - Fair Value Measurements” for additional details regarding the September 2020 Warrants. As of December 31, 2021, no September 2020 or November 2020 Warrants were outstanding.
Increase in Authorized Common Shares
The Company filed an amendment to its certificate of incorporation, which became effective on May 14, 2021, to increase the number
of authorized shares of common stock from 52,500,000 to 78,750,000, as approved by the Company’s shareholders at the 2021 Annual Meeting of Shareholders on May 14, 2021.
Reverse Stock Split
On August 7, 2020, the Board of Directors effected a reverse stock split of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock at a ratio of 1-for-10 and proportionately reduced the total number of authorized shares from 525,000,000 to 52,500,000 shares. All share and per share amounts, except par value per share, in the consolidated financial statements and notes in the 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K were retroactively adjusted for all periods presented to give effect to this reverse stock split.
10% Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”)
On July 18, 2019, all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock were redeemed at a total redemption price of $73.0 million. The Company recognized an $8.3 million loss on the redemption due to the excess of the $73.0 million redemption price over the $64.7 million redemption date carrying value of the Preferred Stock.
