(2) Based on 14,517,786 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of December 31, 1999. 5 ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER This statement on Schedule 13D relates to warrants (the "Warrants") issued to Shell Capital Inc. ("Shell Capital") to purchase up to 5,480,769 shares of the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of Brigham Exploration Company (the "Issuer") and, in the alternative, certain rights held by Shell Capital to convert a portion of the debt issued by Shell Capital pursuant to an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") dated February 17, 2000 between Brigham Oil & Gas, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the "Borrower"), certain financial institutions (including Shell Capital) (the "Lenders"), and the Bank of Montreal, as agent for the Lenders (the "Agent"), into up to 5,480,769 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer pursuant to the terms of the Equity Conversion Agreement dated February 17, 2000 between Shell Capital, the Borrower and the Issuer. The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at 6300 Bridge Point Parkway, Building 2, Suite 500, Austin, Texas 78730. ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND This statement on Schedule 13D is being filed by Shell Capital, Shell Oil Company and Shell Petroleum Inc. (collectively, the "Reporting Persons"). Shell Capital is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shell Oil Company which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shell Petroleum Inc. The principal business of Shell Capital is investment activities. Shell Capital is organized under the laws of the State of Delaware and the address of its principal place of business is 910 Louisiana, Suite 5000, Houston, Texas 77252-2463. Shell Oil Company, including its equity companies, is engaged, principally in the United States, in the exploration for, and development, production, purchase, transportation and marketing of, crude oil and natural gas, and the purchase, manufacture, transportation and marketing of oil and chemical products. In addition, Shell Oil is engaged in the exploration for, and production of, crude oil and natural gas outside the United States on a limited and selected basis. Shell Oil Company is organized under the laws of the State of Delaware and its principal place of business is at One Shell Plaza, 910 Louisiana, Houston, Texas 77002. Shell Petroleum Inc. is a holding company. Shell Petroleum Inc. is organized under the laws of the State of Delaware and has its principal place of business at 1105 N. Market Street, Suite 1300, Wilmington, Delaware 19899. The shares of Shell Petroleum Inc. are directly or indirectly owned 60% by N.V. Koninklijke Nederlandsche Petroleum Maatschappij (Royal Dutch Petroleum Company), the Hague, the Netherlands, and 40% by The "Shell" Transport and Trading Company, p.l.c. These companies are all holding companies of the Royal Dutch/Shell Group of Companies, the members of which are severally engaged throughout the greater part of the world in oil, natural gas, chemicals, coal and other businesses. This Schedule 13D does not describe these entities as Reporting Persons because as parent companies, The "Shell" Transport and Trading Company and Royal Dutch Petroleum Company do not themselves engage in operational activities and they exercise no material voting influence over the voting or disposition of the securities covered by this Schedule 13D except to the 6 extent that they may have officers and directors in common with the Reporting Persons described above. The attached Schedule I is a list of the executive officers and directors of the Reporting Persons which contains the following information with respect to each such Reporting Person: (i) name; (ii) business address; (iii) present principal occupation or employment and the name, principal business and address of any corporation or other organization in which such employment is conducted; and (iv) citizenship. None of the Reporting Persons, nor to their knowledge any person listed on Schedule I hereto, has been during the last five years (a) convicted of any criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (b) a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, United States federal or state securities laws or finding any violations with respect to such laws. ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Lenders thereunder made available to the Borrower a revolving credit facility in an aggregate amount of $75,000,000, conditioned on the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent, to be repaid in full by December 31, 2002. Thomas E. McGraw, acting as trustee for the Agent, has been granted security interests over certain of the assets of the Issuer and its subsidiaries pursuant to the Credit Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Issuer has agreed to guarantee the obligations of the Borrower under the terms of the Credit Agreement. The foregoing summary of the Credit Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit A, which is hereby incorporated by reference. To finance fundings under the Credit Agreement, Shell Capital used funds borrowed from Shell Oil Company. As a condition precedent to the funding of the Credit Agreement, the Issuer, the Borrower and Shell Capital entered into an Equity Conversion Agreement (the "Equity Conversion Agreement") dated February 17, 2000, whereby Shell Capital has the right to convert up to $30,000,000 of outstanding debt issued under the Credit Agreement into shares of Common Stock (the "Conversion Shares"), exercisable on or after the 90th day after the date of the Equity Conversion Agreement and only upon the occurrence of certain events as follows (subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Equity Conversion Agreement): (i) the first $10,000,000 of outstanding debt may be converted into Common Stock at $3.90 per share; (ii) the next $10,000,000 to $20,000,000 of outstanding debt may be converted into Common Stock at $6.00 per share; and (iii) any outstanding debt over $20,000,000 up to $30,000,000 may be converted into Common Stock at $8.00 per share. Should either Shell Capital choose to convert some or all of the outstanding debt into Conversion Shares or the Borrower force Shell Capital to convert some or all of the debt into Conversion Shares, then the number of Warrant Shares (as defined below) into which the Warrants may be converted pursuant to the Warrant Agreement (as defined below) shall be reduced by the number of Conversion Shares issued to Shell Capital pursuant to the Equity Conversion Agreement. The Borrower has the right to force the conversion of outstanding debt under the Credit Agreement into shares of Common Stock on or after one year from the date of the Equity Conversion Agreement, subject to specified 7 limitations. The foregoing summary of the Equity Conversion Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit B, which is hereby incorporated by reference. Also as a condition precedent to the funding of the Credit Agreement, the Issuer entered into a Warrant Agreement (the "Warrant Agreement") with Shell Capital on February 17, 2000. Pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, the Issuer granted to Shell Capital Warrants representing the right to acquire up to 5,480,769 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer (the "Warrant Shares"), exercisable upon the repayment by the Borrower, which repayment meets certain additional conditions, of a certain portion of the debt issued by Shell Capital under the Credit Agreement as follows (subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Warrant Agreement): (i) 2,564,102 Warrants exercisable at $3.90 per share of Common Stock; (ii) 1,666,667 Warrants exercisable at $6.00 per share of Common Stock; and (iii) 1,250,000 Warrants exercisable at $8.00 per share of Common Stock. The number of Warrant Shares held by Shell Capital is subject to reduction as described above upon the conversion of a portion of the outstanding debt issued by Shell Capital under the Credit Agreement into Conversion Shares. The foregoing summary of the Warrant Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit C, which is hereby incorporated by reference. The source of the funds that will be used for the exercise of the Warrants to purchase Warrant Shares, if applicable, will most likely be working capital then on hand or funds borrowed from Shell Oil Company. ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION Shell Capital acquired the Warrants and its rights under the Equity Conversion Agreement in connection with its participation in the funding of the Credit Agreement as described in Item 3. Shell Capital entered into the Credit Agreement for investment purposes. The proceeds of the Credit Agreement will be used to satisfy the working capital needs of Borrower and its subsidiaries. During such time as Shell Capital owns 10% or more of the issued and outstanding Common Stock of the Issuer, Shell Capital shall have the right to designate one member of the Board of Directors of the Issuer as provided in Section 2.08 of the Equity Conversion Agreement. In connection with the Warrant Agreement and the Equity Conversion Agreement, the Issuer and Shell Capital entered into a Registration Rights Agreement dated as of February 17, 2000 (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), which requires the Issuer to register for sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") the Warrant Shares and the Conversion Shares (collectively, the "Registrable Securities") acquired by Shell Capital. These rights include "piggy back" rights to include the Registrable Securities in Securities Act registrations effected by the Issuer, as well as certain registration rights upon the Conversion of any Warrants into Warrant Shares or any outstanding debt into Conversion Shares. The foregoing summary of the Registration Rights Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit D, which is hereby incorporated by reference. Except as set forth in the preceding paragraph, Item 3 and Item 6 hereof and as otherwise contemplated by the Credit Agreement (attached hereto as Exhibit A), the Equity Conversion Agreement (attached hereto as Exhibit B), the Warrant Agreement (attached hereto as Exhibit C) and the Registration Rights Agreement (attached hereto as Exhibit D), none of the Reporting Persons and, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, none of the persons set forth on Schedule I, has 8 any current plans or proposals that relate to or would result in (a) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer or the disposition of securities of the Issuer; (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of it subsidiaries; (d) any change in the present board of directors or management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board; (e) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; (f) any other material change in the Issuer's business or corporate structure; (g) changes in the Issuer's charter, by-laws or instruments corresponding thereto, or other actions which may impede the acquisition of the control of the Issuer by any other person; (h) any of the Issuer's securities being de-listed from a national securities exchange or ceasing to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; (i) any of the Issuer's equity securities becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; or (j) any action similar to any of those enumerated above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Reporting Persons may in the future determine to acquire additional Common Stock or to dispose of Common Stock. ITEM 5.
