During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company entered into separate, privately negotiated Exchange Agreements with a limited number of holders ("the Holders") of the unsecured Convertible Senior Notes due in 2023 ("the Convertible Notes"). Under the terms of the Exchange Agreements, the Holders agreed to exchange an aggregate principal amount of $247.2 million of Convertible Notes held by them in exchange for an aggregate of approximately 44.0 million shares of Company common stock, par value $0.01 per share. In addition, pursuant to the Exchange Agreements, the Company made aggregate cash payments of $1.3 million to the Holders to satisfy accrued and unpaid interest to the closing date of the transactions, along with cash in lieu of fractional shares. These transactions resulted in $215.0 million in additional paid-in-capital and common stock of $0.4 million on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2019. Additionally, the Company recognized a net loss on the exchange of debt of $36.1 million and $4.5 million on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the quarters ended March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019, respectively.
