EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) to the Annual Report of Energy XXI Ltd (the “Company”) on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 (the “Annual Report”) is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to amend Item 8 “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” to include a new Note 23 – Supplemental Guarantor Information (the “Consolidating Footnote”), which includes condensed consolidating financial information for the Company, combined guarantor subsidiaries and combined non-guarantor subsidiaries in accordance with the requirements of Regulation S-X. The primary purpose of the Consolidating Footnote is to allow investors to determine the assets, results of operations and comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows of each of the consolidating groups.

This Amendment solely modifies Part II, Item 8, of the Annual Report to include Note 23. All of the information in this Amendment No. 1 is as of August 25, 2014, the date the Company filed the Annual Report with the SEC. This Amendment No. 1 continues to speak as of the date of the Annual Report and does not reflect any subsequent information or events other than the amendment to Item 8 discussed above. Accordingly, this Amendment No. 1 should be read in conjunction with our filings made with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Annual Report, including any amendments to those filings. Among other things, forward-looking statements made in the Annual Report have not been revised to reflect events, results or developments that occurred or facts that became known to us after the date of the Annual Report.

The certifications pursuant to Section 302 and Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, filed as Exhibits 31.1, 31.2 and 32.1 to the Annual Report, have been re-executed and re-filed as of the date of this Amendment No. 1.

The Company’s management has considered whether the addition of the Consolidating Footnote to conform to the requirements of Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X under the Exchange Act affects management’s conclusion, set forth in the Annual Report, regarding the effectiveness, as of June 30, 2014, of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) and the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Management continues to believe that, as of June 30, 2014:

The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure; and
The Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective based on the criteria on which it was evaluated, as described in the Annual Report. Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting is included in this Amendment No. 1.


 
 


 
 

MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by management, under the supervision of our principal executive and principal financial officers, and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) and includes those policies and procedures that:

Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our management, under the supervision and participation of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2014. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (1992). Management has excluded EPL Oil & Gas, Inc. (“EPL”) from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2014 as it was acquired by the Company in a business combination on June 3, 2014. EPL is our wholly-owned indirect subsidiary whose total assets and total revenues represent 47% and 5%, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statements amounts as of and for the year ended June 30, 2014.

Based on this assessment, our management has concluded that, as of June 30, 2014, our internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria.

UHY LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited the consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-K, has issued a report on our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2014. This report, dated August 25, 2014, appears on the following page.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Energy XXI (Bermuda) Limited

We have audited Energy XXI (Bermuda) Limited and subsidiaries’ (the “Company”) internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2014, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included herein. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, Energy XXI (Bermuda) Limited and subsidiaries maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2014, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (1992) issued by COSO.

Energy XXI (Bermuda) Limited through its wholly owned subsidiary, Energy XXI Gulf Coast, Inc., acquired EPL Oil and Gas, Inc. on June 3, 2014, and management excluded from its assessment of the effectiveness of Energy XXI (Bermuda) Limited and subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2014, EPL Oil and Gas Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting. EPL Oil and Gas Inc. represented approximately 47% of assets (net of amounts representing goodwill that are within the scope of the assessment) and 5% of revenues included in the consolidated financial statements of Energy XXI (Bermuda) Limited and subsidiaries as of and for the year ended June 30, 2014. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting of Energy XXI (Bermuda) Limited and subsidiaries also excluded an evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting of EPL Oil and Gas, Inc.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Energy XXI (Bermuda) Limited and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income (loss), stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three fiscal years in the period ended June 30, 2014, and our report dated August 25, 2014 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Energy XXI (Bermuda) Limited

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Energy XXI (Bermuda) Limited (a Bermuda Corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income (loss), stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three fiscal years in the period ended June 30, 2014. Our audit also included the financial statement schedule included in Item 15(a)(2). The Company’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements and schedule. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Energy XXI (Bermuda) Limited and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three fiscal years in the period ended June 30, 2014, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the effectiveness of Energy XXI (Bermuda) Limited and subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2014, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated August 25, 2014 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effective operation of internal control over financial reporting.

ENERGY XXI (BERMUDA) LIMITED
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 — Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations.  Energy XXI (Bermuda) Limited was incorporated in Bermuda on July 25, 2005. Headquartered in Houston, Texas, we are engaged in the acquisition, exploration, development and operation of oil and natural gas properties onshore in Louisiana and Texas and offshore in the Gulf of Mexico.

References in this report to “us,” “we,” “our,” “the Company,” or “Energy XXI” are to Energy XXI (Bermuda) Limited and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. We use the equity method of accounting for investments in entities that we do not control, but over which we exert significant influence.

Principles of Consolidation and Reporting.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Energy XXI (Bermuda) Limited and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”). All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The consolidated financial statements for the previous periods include certain reclassifications that were made to conform to current presentation. Such reclassifications have no impact on previously reported consolidated net income, consolidated stockholders’ equity or consolidated cash flows.

Use of Estimates.  The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates of proved reserves are key components of our depletion rate for our proved oil and natural gas properties and the full cost ceiling test limitation. Accordingly, our accounting estimates require exercise of judgment by management in preparing such estimates. While we believe that the estimates and assumptions used in preparation of our consolidated financial statements are appropriate, actual results could differ from those estimates, and any such difference may be material.

Cash and Cash Equivalents.  We consider all highly liquid investments, with maturities of 90 days or less when purchased, to be cash and cash equivalents.

Restricted Cash.  We maintain restricted escrow funds in a trust for future plugging, abandonment and other decommissioning costs. These funds will remain restricted until substantially all required decommissioning is complete. Amounts on deposit in the trust account are reflected in Restricted cash on our consolidated balance sheets.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts.  Accounts receivable are stated at historical carrying amount net of allowance for doubtful accounts. We establish provisions for losses on accounts receivable if it is determined that collection of all or a part of an outstanding balance is not probable. Collectability is reviewed regularly and an allowance is established or adjusted, as necessary, using the specific identification method. As of June 30, 2014 and 2013, no allowance for doubtful accounts was necessary.

Oil and Natural Gas Properties.  We use the full cost method of accounting for exploration and development activities as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Under this method of accounting, the costs of unsuccessful, as well as successful, exploration and development activities are capitalized as properties and equipment. This includes any internal costs that are directly related to property acquisition, exploration and development activities but does not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead or similar activities. Gain or loss on the sale or other disposition of oil and gas properties is not recognized, unless the gain or loss would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves.

Oil and natural gas properties include costs that are excluded from costs being depleted or amortized. Costs excluded from depletion or amortization represent investments in unevaluated properties and include non-producing leasehold, geological and geophysical costs associated with leasehold or drilling interests and exploration drilling costs. We exclude these costs until the property has been evaluated. We also allocate a

11


 
 

ENERGY XXI (BERMUDA) LIMITED
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 — Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies  – (continued)

portion of our acquisition costs to unevaluated properties based on fair value. Costs are transferred to the full cost pool as the properties are evaluated or over the life of the reservoir.

We evaluate the impairment of our evaluated oil and natural gas properties through the use of a ceiling test as prescribed by SEC Regulation S-X Rule 4-10. Future production volumes from oil and natural gas properties are a significant factor in determining the full cost ceiling limitation of capitalized costs. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of proved oil and natural gas reserves. Oil and natural gas reserve engineering is a subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of oil and natural gas that cannot be precisely measured. Such cost estimates related to future development costs of proved oil and natural gas reserves could be subject to revisions due to changes in regulatory requirements, technological advances and other factors which are difficult to predict.

Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization.  The depreciable base for oil and natural gas properties includes the sum of all capitalized costs net of accumulated depreciation, depletion, amortization and impairment (“DD&A”), estimated future development costs and asset retirement costs not included in oil and natural gas properties, less costs excluded from amortization. The depreciable base of oil and natural gas properties is amortized using the unit-of-production method.

Weather Based Insurance Linked Securities.  We obtain Weather Based Insurance Linked Securities (“Securities”), to mitigate potential loss to our oil and natural gas properties from hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico. These Securities provide for payments of negotiated amounts should a pre-defined category hurricane pass within specific pre-defined areas encompassing our oil and natural gas producing fields. Since these Securities were obtained to mitigate potential loss due to hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico, the majority of the premiums associated with these Securities are charged to expense during the period associated with the hurricane season, typically June 1 to November 30. The amortization of insurance premiums for these Securities is recorded as a component of our lease operating expense.

Other Property and Equipment.  Other property and equipment include buildings, data processing and telecommunications equipment, office furniture and equipment, vehicle and leasehold improvements and other fixed assets. These items are recorded at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method based on expected lives of the individual assets or group of assets, which ranges from three to five years. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed in the period incurred.

Business Combinations.  For properties acquired in a business combination, we allocate the cost of the acquisition to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on fair values as of the acquisition date. Deferred taxes are recorded for any differences between the assigned values and tax bases of assets and liabilities. Any excess of the purchase price over amounts assigned to assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Any excess of amounts assigned to assets and liabilities over the purchase price is recorded as a gain on bargain purchase. The amount of goodwill or gain on bargain purchase recorded in any particular business combination can vary significantly depending upon the values attributed to assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

In estimating the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination, we make various assumptions. The most significant assumptions relate to the estimated fair values assigned to proved and unproved oil and natural gas properties. To estimate the fair values of these properties, we prepare estimates of crude oil and natural gas reserves. We estimate future prices to apply to the estimated reserves quantities acquired, and estimate future operating and development costs, to arrive at estimates of future net cash flows. For estimated proved reserves, the future net cash flows are discounted using a market-based weighted average cost of capital rate determined appropriate at the time of the acquisition. The market-based weighted average cost of capital rate is subjected to additional project-specific risking factors. To compensate for the inherent risk of estimating and valuing unproved reserves, the discounted future net cash flows of probable and possible reserves are reduced by additional risk-weighting factors.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 — Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies  – (continued)

Estimated deferred taxes are based on available information concerning the tax basis of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and loss carryforwards at the acquisition date, although such estimates may change in the future as additional information becomes known.

Goodwill.  Goodwill has an indefinite useful life and is not amortized, but rather is tested for impairment at least annually during the third quarter, unless events occur or circumstances change between annual tests that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a related reporting unit below its carrying value. Impairment occurs when the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. Goodwill arose in fiscal 2014 with the EPL Acquisition and has been recorded to our oil and natural gas reporting unit. Events affecting oil and natural gas prices may cause a decrease in the fair value of the reporting unit, and we could have an impairment of goodwill in future periods.

Derivative Instruments.  We utilize derivative instruments in the form of natural gas and crude oil put, swap and collar arrangements and combinations of these instruments in order to manage the price risk associated with future crude oil and natural gas production. Gains or losses resulting from transactions designated as cash flow hedges are recorded at market value and are recorded, net of related tax impact, in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“AOCI”) as appropriate, until recognized as operating income in our consolidated statement of income as the physical production hedged by the contracts is delivered. Instruments not qualifying for hedge accounting treatment are recorded in the balance sheet and changes in fair value are recognized directly in earnings.

The net cash flows related to any recognized gains or losses associated with cash flow hedges are reported as oil and natural gas revenue and presented in cash flow from operations. If a hedge is terminated prior to expected maturity, gains or losses are deferred and included in income in the same period as the physical production hedged by the contract is delivered.

Debt Issuance Costs.  Costs incurred in connection with the issuance of long-term debt are capitalized and amortized to interest expense over the scheduled maturity of the debt utilizing the straight-line method, which approximates the interest method.

Asset Retirement Obligations.  Our investment in oil and natural gas properties includes an estimate of the future cost associated with dismantlement, abandonment and restoration of our properties. The present value of the future costs are added to the capitalized cost of our oil and natural gas properties and recorded as a long-term or current liability. The capitalized cost is included in oil and natural gas properties cost that are depleted over the life of the assets. The estimation of future costs associated with dismantlement, abandonment and restoration requires the use of estimated costs in future periods that, in some cases, will not be incurred until a substantial number of years in the future. Such cost estimates could be subject to revisions in subsequent years due to changes in regulatory requirements, technological advances and other factors which may be difficult to predict.

Common Stock.  Refers to the $0.005 par value per share capital stock as designated in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation. Treasury Stock is accounted for using the cost method.

Revenue Recognition.  We recognize oil and natural gas revenue under the entitlement method of accounting. Under the entitlement method, revenue is recorded when title passes based on our net interest. We record our entitled share of revenues based on entitled volumes and contracted sales prices.

General and Administrative Expense.  Under the full cost method of accounting, a portion of our general and administrative expense that is directly identified with our acquisition, exploration and development activities is capitalized as part of oil and natural gas properties. These capitalized costs include salaries, employee benefits, costs of consulting services, and other direct costs incurred to directly support those employees that are directly involved in acquisition, exploration and development activities. The capitalized costs do not include costs related to production operations, general corporate overhead or similar activities.

ENERGY XXI (BERMUDA) LIMITED
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 — Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies  – (continued)

Our capitalized general and administrative expense directly related to our acquisition, exploration and development activities for the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012 was $64.5 million, $37.6 million and $38.3 million, respectively.

Share-Based Compensation.  Compensation cost for equity awards is based on the fair value of the equity instrument on the date of grant and is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award. Compensation cost for liability awards is based on the fair value of the vested award at the end of each reporting period.

Income Taxes.  Provisions for income taxes include deferred taxes resulting primarily from temporary differences due to different reporting methods for oil and natural gas properties and derivative instruments for financial reporting purposes and income tax purposes. For financial reporting purposes, all exploratory and development expenditures are capitalized and depreciated, depleted and amortized on the unit-of-production method. For income tax purposes, only the equipment and leasehold costs relative to successful wells are capitalized and recovered through depreciation or depletion. Generally, most other exploratory and development costs are charged to expense as incurred; however, we may use certain provisions of the Internal Revenue Code which allow capitalization of intangible drilling costs where management deems appropriate.

When recording income tax expense, certain estimates are required to be made by management due to timing and to the impact of future events on when income tax expenses and benefits are recognized by us. We periodically evaluate any tax operating loss and other carryforwards to determine whether a gross tax asset, as well as a valuation allowance, should be recognized in our consolidated financial statements. At June 30, 2014 we maintained a $22.5 million valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets due to our judgment that our existing State of Louisiana net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards are not, on a more-likely-than-not basis, likely recoverable in future years. We continue to evaluate the need for the valuation allowance based on current and expected earnings and other factors, and adjust it accordingly. In light of our capital structure, U.S. withholding taxes attributable to interest due on loans from the Bermuda parent to the U.S. operating companies is provided as the interest accrues. This U.S. withholding tax (at 30%) is due when the interest is actually paid, and may not be offset or reduced by U.S. operating activity; although the interest expense is generally deductible in the U.S. when paid, subject to certain other limitations.

We adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 740-10 (formally known as FIN 48, addressing “Uncertain Tax Positions”) and applied this guidance as of July 1, 2007. As of the adoption date, we did not record a cumulative effect adjustment related to the adoption of ASC Topic 740-10 nor have we recorded any gross unrecognized tax benefit related to Uncertain Tax Positions.

Earnings per Share.  The Earnings per Share (“EPS”) amounts have been calculated based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the year. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution, using the treasury stock method. The diluted EPS calculation includes shares of common stock from the assumed conversion of the Company’s redeemable preferred stock.

Note 2 — Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-11 Balance Sheet: Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (ASU 2011-11). ASU 2011-11 requires that an entity disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU 2011-11 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. We adopted ASU 2011-11 on July 1, 2013 and the adoption had no effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows, other than presentation.

In February 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-02: Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“ASU 2013-02”). ASU 2013-02 updates ASU 2011-12 and requires companies to report information of significant changes in accumulated balances of

each component of other comprehensive income included in equity in one place. Total changes in accumulated other comprehensive income by component can either be presented on the face of the financial statements or in the notes. ASU 2013-02 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. We adopted ASU 2013-02 on July 1, 2013 and the adoption had no effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows, other than presentation.

In July 2013 the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (ASU-2013-11). ASU 2013-11 clarifies that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward if such settlement is required or expected in the event the uncertain tax position is disallowed. In situations where a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction or the tax law of the jurisdiction does not require, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. ASU 2013-11 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the provisions of ASU 2013-11 and assessing the impact, if any, it may have on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

ExxonMobil oil and gas properties interests acquisition

On October 17, 2012, we closed on the acquisition of certain shallow-water Gulf of Mexico interests (“GOM Interests”) from Exxon Mobil Corporation (“ExxonMobil”) for a total cash consideration of approximately $32.8 million. The GOM Interests cover 5,000 gross acres on Vermilion Block 164 (“VR 164”). We are the operator of these properties. In addition to acquiring the GOM Interests, we entered into a joint venture agreement with ExxonMobil to explore for oil and gas on nine contiguous blocks adjacent to VR 164 in shallow waters on the GOM shelf. We operate the joint venture and commenced drilling on the initial prospect during the quarter ended December 31, 2012. The objective targets at Pendragon well, the initial prospect, were not reached as it encountered mechanical issues and was plugged and abandoned. Subsequently, we began drilling the Merlin well located at Vermilion Block 179; the Merlin well did not encounter any commercial hydrocarbons and was plugged and abandoned. We are currently negotiating an extension of our joint venture with ExxonMobil to further the Pendragon and Merlin wells’ data along with reprocessing the 3D seismic information to determine the future drilling activities on the Vermilion Block.

Revenues and expenses related to the GOM Interests from the closing date of October 17, 2012 are included in our consolidated statements of income. The acquisition of the GOM Interests was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Transaction, transition and integration costs associated with this acquisition were expensed as incurred.

Revenues and expenses related to the South Timbalier 54 Interests are included in our consolidated statements of income from March 7, 2014. The acquisition of South Timbalier 54 Interests was accounted for under purchase method of accounting. Transaction, transition and integration costs associated with this acquisition were expensed as incurred. The following table presents the preliminary purchase price allocation to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their fair values on March 7, 2014 (in thousands):

Asset retirement obligations     (705 ) 
Cash paid   $ 22,792  

The fair values of evaluated and unevaluated oil and natural gas properties and asset retirement obligations for the above acquisitions were measured using valuation techniques that convert future cash flows to a single discounted amount. Inputs to the valuation of oil and gas properties include estimates of: (1) oil and gas reserves; (2) future operating and development costs; (3) future oil and natural gas prices; and (4) the discount factor used to calculate the discounted cash flow amount. Inputs into the valuation of the asset retirement obligations include estimates of: (1) plugging and abandonment costs per well and related facilities; (2) remaining life per well and facilities; and (3) a credit adjusted risk-free interest rate.

Apache Joint Venture

On February 1, 2013, we entered into an Exploration Agreement (the “Exploration Agreement”) with Apache to jointly participate in exploration of oil and gas pay sands associated with salt dome structures on the central GoM Shelf. We have a 25% participation interest in the Exploration Agreement, which expires on February 1, 2018.

The area of mutual interest under this Exploration Agreement includes several salt domes within a 135 block area. Our share of cost to acquire seismic data over a two-year seismic shoot phase is currently estimated to be approximately $37.5 million of which approximately $33.7 million was incurred through June 30, 2014. Drilling on the first well commenced in May 2013 on the southern flank of the salt dome, penetrating eight oil sands and one gas bearing sand. In February 2014 we commenced drilling an offset well which also encountered multiple hydrocarbon bearing sands. Presently both the wellbores have been suspended for future utility and we expect to complete 3D wide azimuth (“WAZ”) seismic data analysis in December 2014. As of June 30, 2014, our share of costs related to these wells was approximately $28.1 million.

Acquisition of EPL Oil & Gas, Inc. (“EPL”)

We acquired EPL on June 3, 2014. The acquisition has been accounted for under the acquisition method, with Energy XXI as the acquirer. EPL is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Energy XXI Gulf Coast, Inc. (“EGC”). Subsequent to the merger, we elected to change EPL’s fiscal year end to June 30 to coincide with our fiscal year end.

In the EPL acquisition, each EPL stockholder had the right to elect to receive, for each share of EPL common stock held by that stockholder, $39.00 in cash (“Cash Election”), or 1.669 shares of Energy XXI common stock (“Stock Election”) or a combination of $25.35 in cash and 0.584 of a share of Energy XXI common stock (“Mixed Election” and collectively the (“Merger Consideration”)), subject to proration with respect to the Stock Election and the Cash Election so that approximately 65% of the aggregate Merger Consideration was paid in cash and approximately 35% was paid in Energy XXI common stock. Accordingly, EPL stockholders making a timely Cash Election received $25.92 in cash and 0.5595 of a share of Energy XXI common stock for each EPL common share. Under the merger agreement, EPL stockholders who did not make an election prior to the May 30th deadline were treated as having made a Mixed Election. In addition to the outstanding EPL shares shown below, each outstanding stock option to purchase shares of EPL common stock was deemed exercised pursuant to a cashless exercise and was converted into the right to receive the

cash portion of the Merger Consideration pursuant to the Cash Election, without being subject to proration. As a result, in accordance with the Merger Agreement, 836,311 net exercise shares were converted into $39.00 in cash, without proration.

Based on the final results of the Merger Consideration elections and as set forth in the merger agreement, we issued 23.3 million shares of our common stock and paid approximately $1,012 million in cash. Following is a summary of the total purchase price of approximately $1,504.3 million, including cash acquired of $206.1 million (in millions other than per share amounts):

Note 3 — Acquisitions and Dispositions  – (continued)

c. At June 30, 2014, we conducted a qualitative goodwill impairment assessment by examining relevant events and circumstances that could have a negative impact on our goodwill, such as macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, cost factors that have a negative effect on earnings and cash flows, overall financial performance, dispositions and acquisitions, and any other relevant events or circumstances. After assessing the relevant events and circumstances for the qualitative impairment assessment, we determined that performing a quantitative goodwill impairment test was unnecessary, and no goodwill impairment was recognized.

EPL’s operating revenues and net income of $60.1 million and $4.2 million for the month ended June 30, 2014 are included in the Consolidated Statement of Income for the year ended June 30, 2014.

In accordance with the acquisition method of accounting, the purchase price from our acquisition of EPL has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition date. The fair value estimates were based on, but not limited to quoted market prices, where available; expected future cash flows based on estimated reserve quantities; estimated costs to produce and develop reserves; current replacement cost for similar capacity for certain fixed assets; market rate assumptions for contractual obligations; appropriate discount rates and growth rates, and crude oil and natural gas forward prices. The excess of the total consideration over the estimated fair value of the amounts initially assigned to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been recorded as goodwill. Goodwill recorded in connection with the acquisition is not deductible for income tax purposes.

The final valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is not complete and the net adjustments to those values may result in changes to goodwill and other carrying amounts initially assigned to the assets and liabilities based on the preliminary fair value analysis. The principal remaining items to be valued are tax assets and liabilities, and any related valuation allowances, which will be finalized in connection with the filing of related tax returns.

The fair value measurements of the oil and natural gas properties and the asset retirement obligations included in other long-term liabilities were based, in part, on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represent Level 3 measurements. The fair value measurement of long-term debt was based on prices obtained from a readily available pricing source and thus represents a Level 2 measurement.

Goodwill primarily resulted from the requirement to recognize deferred taxes on the difference between the fair value and the historical tax basis of the acquired assets.

Costs associated with the EPL Acquisition totaled $13.6 million for the year ended June 30, 2014, which were included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of income.

The following supplemental unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information has been prepared to reflect the EPL Acquisition as if the merger had occurred on July 1, 2012.

c. Increase interest expense by $51.9 million to reflect interest on the $650 million 6.875% Senior Notes and on additional borrowings under EXXI’s revolving credit facility for the twelve months ending June 30, 2013. Decrease interest expense $7.0 million to reflect non-cash interest expense associated with the $510 million of EPL’s 8.25% Senior Notes due to the adjustment to fair value of the assumed EPL debt obligations, net of interest expense of $5.4 million to reflect interest on the 8.25% Senior Notes from July 1, 2012.

20% interest in Energy XXI M21K, LLC

We own a 20% interest in EXXI M21K. EXXI M21K engages in the acquisition, exploration, development and operation of oil and natural gas properties offshore in the Gulf of Mexico, through its wholly owned subsidiary, M21K, LLC (“M21K”).

On June 4, 2012, M21K entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (“PSA Agreement”) with EP Energy E&P Company, L.P. (“EP Energy”) to acquire interests in certain oil and natural gas fields owned by EP Energy. The total purchase price, subject to adjustments in accordance with the terms of the PSA Agreement was $103 million. The effective date of the acquisition was January 1, 2012.

On July 19, 2012, M21K closed on the acquisition and we paid our share of the remaining purchase price of $16 million to EP Energy, prior to final adjustments. EXXI M21K is a guarantor of a $100 million first lien credit facility agreement entered into by M21K (“M21K First Lien Credit Agreement”). Simultaneous with the closing of the acquisition of assets from EP Energy, M21K entered into the First Amendment to the M21K First Lien Credit Agreement, which made technical changes to defined terms and hedging requirements, as well as established the borrowing base under the facility at $25 million.

On December 12, 2012, in conjunction with the name change from Natural Gas Partners Assets, LLC to M21K, LLC, M21K entered into the Second Amendment to the M21K First Lien Credit Agreement to reflect the name change and make technical changes to borrowing procedures.

On April 9, 2013, M21K entered into the Third Amendment to the M21K First Lien Credit Agreement that made technical modification of a defined term and reduced the borrowing base to $24 million with a further reduction to $20 million within ninety days from the amendment date.

On July 25, 2013 M21K entered into a PSA Agreement with LLOG Exploration Offshore, L.L.C. (“LLOG Exploration”) to acquire interests in certain oil and natural gas fields owned by LLOG Exploration. The total purchase price, subject to adjustments in accordance with the terms of the PSA Agreement was $103 million. The effective date of the acquisition was April 1, 2013. In connection with this acquisition, M21K paid LLOG Exploration a performance deposit of $10.3 million.

On September 17, 2013, M21K entered into a waiver and consent to the M21K First Lien Credit Agreement that allows a one-time distribution of funds from M21K to its parent on or after November 1, 2013, subject to certain liquidity requirements, and increased the borrowing base to $40 million.

We have provided a guarantee related to the payment of asset retirement obligations and other liabilities by M21K for the EP Energy and the LLOG Exploration property acquisitions. See Note 13 — Related Party Transactions of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-K.

Energy XXI Gulf Coast, Inc. (“EGC”), our wholly owned subsidiary, receives a management fee from M21K for providing administrative assistance in carrying out its operations. See Note 13 — Related Party Transactions of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-K.

The provisions of the M21K Limited Liability Company Agreement (“LLC Agreement”) provide that M21K can make acquisitions subject to the commitment of its partners. While it is envisioned that M21K will be sold eventually to a third party to monetize returns from the investments, the M21K LLC Agreement does provide for a put and a call that can occur starting July 19, 2016; subject to an earlier option if there is a change of control of Energy XXI.

On April 1, 2014, M21K closed on the acquisition of certain interests in Eugene Island 330 and South Marsh Island 128 fields (“the Acquired Properties”) from Energy XXI, for cash consideration of approximately $122.9 million. Energy XXI has provided a guarantee for asset retirement obligations related to the Acquired Properties. This acquisition is subject to customary closing adjustments.

As of June 30, 2014, our investment in EXXI M21K was approximately $40.6 million and we incurred $3.5 million and $2.9 million in equity loss in the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

80% interest in Ping Energy XXI Limited (“Ping Energy”)

Our wholly-owned subsidiary Energy XXI International Limited (“EXXI International”), pursuant to a Joint Development Agreement (“JDA”) held a 49% interest in Ping Energy, which was active in the pursuit to identify and acquire exploratory, developmental and producing oil and natural gas properties in South East Asia.

On October 18, 2013, EXXI International amended the JDA and increased its ownership interest to 80% in Ping Energy, subsequent to which all the operations in Ping Energy were consolidated in our financial statements, effective October 1, 2013.

We incurred $1.2 million equity loss through September 30, 2013 and had incurred $3.5 million in equity loss in the year ended June 30, 2013.

In January 2014, EXXI International terminated the JDA with Ping Energy and is in the process of dissolving Ping Energy.

Subsequent to our EPL Acquisition, as disclosed in Note 3 — Acquisitions and Dispositions of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statement in this Form 10-K, we presently do not intend to pursue any international opportunities to acquire exploratory, development or producing oil and natural gas properties.

The second amended and restated first lien credit agreement (“First Lien Credit Agreement”) was entered into by EGC, in May 2011 and underwent its Eighth Amendment on June 3, 2014 as noted below. This facility, as amended, has lender commitments of $1.7 billion and matures on April 9, 2018, provided that the facility will mature immediately if the 9.25% Senior Notes are not retired or refinanced by June 15, 2017 or the 8.25% Senior Notes are not retired or refinanced by August 15, 2017. Borrowings are limited to a borrowing base of $1.5 billion, which is based on oil and natural gas reserve values which are re-determined on a periodic basis. Currently, the facility bears interest based on the borrowing base usage, at the applicable London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), plus applicable margins ranging from 1.75% to 2.75% or an alternate base rate, based on the federal funds effective rate plus applicable margins ranging from 0.75% to 1.75%. The revolving credit facility is secured by mortgages on at least 85% of the value of our proved reserves. Under the First Lien Credit Agreement, EGC is allowed to pay us a limited amount of distributions, subject to certain terms and conditions. The First Lien Credit Agreement, as amended, requires the consolidated EGC to maintain certain financial covenants. Specifically, EGC may not permit the following under First Lien Credit Agreement: (a) EGC’s total leverage ratio to be more than 3.5 to 1.0, (b) EGC’s

25

Note 6 — Long-Term Debt  – (continued)

interest coverage ratio to be less than 3.0 to 1.0, and (c) EGC’s current ratio (in each case as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement) to be less than 1.0 to 1.0, as of the end of each fiscal quarter. In addition, EGC is subject to various other covenants including, but not limited to, those limiting its ability to declare and pay dividends or other payments, its ability to incur debt, restrictions on change of control, the ability to enter into certain hedging agreements, as well as a covenant to maintain John D. Schiller, Jr. in his current executive position, subject to certain exceptions in the event of his death or disability.

On September 27, 2013, EGC entered into the Sixth Amendment (the “Sixth Amendment”) to the First Lien Credit Agreement. Under the Sixth Amendment, the borrowing base for EGC was increased from $850 million to $1,087.5 million. Additionally, the Sixth Amendment provided EGC the ability to specify interest periods for LIBOR loans of less than a month in length and made some related adjustments to the definition of LIBOR and other technical corrections.

On April 7, 2014, EGC entered into the Seventh Amendment (the “Seventh Amendment”) to the First Lien Credit Agreement. Under the Seventh Amendment, the borrowing base for EGC was increased from $1,087.5 million to $1,200 million. Additionally, the Seventh Amendment incorporated the 7.50% Senior Notes due 2021 as senior unsecured debt generally permitted under the terms of the First Lien Credit Agreement, so that provisions under the First Lien Credit Agreement for such notes are commensurate with the provisions already existing for EGC’s 9.25% senior unsecured notes due 2017 and 7.75% senior unsecured notes due 2019. Also, the Seventh Amendment allowed for the incurrence of an additional $1,000 million of unsecured debt, subject to certain conditions, including that the minimum liquidity requirements outlined in the First Lien Credit Agreement would be increased in the amount of 25% of any such new debt incurred until such time as the lenders under the First Lien Credit Agreement otherwise provide or waive such increase.

On June 3, 2014, EGC entered into the Eighth Amendment (“the Eighth Amendment”) to the First Lien Credit Agreement. Pursuant to the Eighth Amendment, the borrowing base for EGC was established at $1.5 billion (an increase from $1.2 billion as determined on April 7, 2014) until the next redetermination of such borrowing base pursuant to the terms of the First Lien Credit Agreement. Of this borrowing base amount, EGC established a sub-facility pursuant to the Eighth Amendment for its wholly owned subsidiary, EPL, with a borrowing base of $475 million for such sub-facility. Upon the effectiveness of the Eighth Amendment, EPL immediately borrowed the entire $475 million to refinance the outstanding indebtedness it had under the terms of a credit agreement in existence at the effective time of the acquisition of EPL by EGC. The borrowing base for this sub-facility is subject to redeterminations from time to time generally on the same basis as is the overall borrowing base under the First Lien Credit Agreement. Under the Eighth Amendment, EGC and its subsidiaries, other than EPL and its subsidiaries, have guaranteed and secured the indebtedness of EPL and its subsidiaries, but EPL and its subsidiaries have not commensurately guaranteed the obligations of EGC and its other subsidiaries. However, per the terms of the First Lien Credit Agreement, immediately upon EPL’s retirement of its obligations in respect of its outstanding 8.25% Senior Notes due 2018, EPL and its subsidiaries are required to guarantee and secure the obligations generally of EGC and its subsidiaries and such EPL sub-facility shall terminate and the entire borrowing base amount shall thereupon be available to EGC for credit extensions under the terms of the First Lien Credit Agreement. Most of the terms of the Eighth Amendment generally are in regards to incorporating the concept of EPL as a separate “borrower” for purposes of the First Lien Credit Agreement. Interest accrues and is payable on the EPL sub-facility on the same basis as principal amounts outstanding generally under the First Lien Credit Agreement.

The Eighth Amendment also incorporates a few additional changes, including the incorporation of the concept of EGC’s 6.875% Senior Notes due 2024 and EPL’s 8.25% Senior Notes due 2018 as senior unsecured debt generally permitted under the terms of the First Lien Credit Agreement, so that provisions under the First Lien Credit Agreement for such notes are commensurate with the provisions already existing for EGC’s 9.25% senior unsecured notes due 2017, 7.75% senior unsecured notes due 2019 and 7.50% senior unsecured notes due 2021. With the Eighth Amendment, EGC retains the ability to further incur $1 billion of

26

Note 6 — Long-Term Debt  – (continued)

permitted unsecured indebtedness, still subject to the condition that the minimum liquidity requirements outlined in the First Lien Credit Agreement would be increased in the amount of 25% of any such new debt incurred until such time as the lenders under the First Lien Credit Agreement otherwise provide or waive such increase. Furthermore, the Eighth Amendment removed the prohibition on the prepayment, redemption or other refinance of EGC’s outstanding 9.25% senior unsecured notes due 2017, 7.75% senior unsecured notes due 2019, 7.50% senior unsecured notes due 2021 and the 6.875% Senior Notes due 2024 and any other permitted unsecured indebtedness incurred by EGC, and instead established certain quantitative liquidity conditions to making any such prepayment, redemption or other refinance of such senior unsecured notes or other permitted unsecured indebtedness. Pursuant to the Eighth Amendment, EGC is permitted to use proceeds from the issuance of further permitted unsecured indebtedness to prepay, redeem or refinance such notes and, upon such action, treat such amount so used as a refinancing of the amount so prepaid redeemed, and restore the availability to incur such amount under the permitted unsecured indebtedness basket.

As of June 30, 2014, EGC was in compliance with the covenants described above and the other financial covenants under the First Lien Credit Agreement, with the possible exception of its total leverage ratio. EGC typically completes its audit after the Bermuda parent company completes its audit. Based upon preliminary calculations, EGC determined it may have exceeded the total leverage ratio covenant and therefore EGC sought a temporary increase in the total leverage ratio covenant. EGC’s total leverage ratio covenant included within Section 7.2.4(a) of the First Lien Credit Agreement requires EGC to maintain a Total Leverage Ratio (as defined therein) of not more than 3.5 to 1.0 for each of the fiscal quarters ending June 30, 2014 and September 30, 2014. EGC’s leverage ratio was estimated to be 3.6 to 1.0 for the quarter ended June 30, 2014. EGC received a waiver from the lenders under the First Lien Credit Agreement on August 22, 2014 with respect to this potential violation for the quarters ending June 30, 2014 and September 30, 2014. The waiver is conditioned upon EGC maintaining a Total Leverage Ratio of not more than 4.25 to 1.00 for each of the fiscal quarters ending June 30, 2014 and September 30, 2014. EGC was in compliance with the requirements under the waiver for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2014 and expects to be in compliance therewith for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2014. EGC is currently in discussions with the lenders under the First Lien Credit Agreement to amend certain of the financial covenants in order to ensure that EGC will be in compliance with the covenants for the remainder of the 2015 fiscal year. There is no assurance that EGC will reach agreement with its lenders on these amendments. In the event an amendment cannot be obtained, EGC believes that it will be able to comply with the current covenants under the First Lien Credit Agreement through June 30, 2015 by taking certain actions within EGC’s control.

As of June 30, 2014, EGC had $689 million in borrowings and $225.7 million in letters of credit issued under our First Lien Credit Agreement.

8.25% Senior Notes Due 2018

On June 3, 2014, EGC assumed the 8.25% Senior Notes in EPL Acquisition which consist of $510 million in aggregate principal amount issued under an indenture dated as of February 14, 2011 (the “2011 Indenture”). The 8.25% Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on an unsecured senior basis initially by each of EPL’s existing direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries. The 8.25% Senior Notes will mature on February 15, 2018. On April 18, 2014, EPL entered into a supplemental indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture”) to the 2011 Indenture, by and among EPL, the guarantors party thereto, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “8.25% Senior Notes Trustee”), governing EPL’s 8.25% Senior Notes. EPL entered into the Supplemental Indenture after the receipt of consents from the requisite holders of the 8.25% Senior Notes in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Consent Solicitation Statement dated April 7, 2014, pursuant to which we had solicited consents (the “Consent Solicitation”) from the holders of the 8.25% Senior Notes to make certain proposed amendments to certain definitions set forth in the Indenture (the “Proposed COC Amendments”), as reflected in the Supplemental Indenture. The Consent Solicitation was made as permitted by the Merger Agreement. On April 18, 2014, we

27


 
 

ENERGY XXI (BERMUDA) LIMITED
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 6 — Long-Term Debt  – (continued)

had received valid consents from holders of an aggregate principal amount of $484.1 million of the 8.25% Senior Notes and that those consents had not been revoked prior to the Consent Time. As a result, the requisite holders of the 8.25% Senior Notes had consented to the Proposed COC Amendments, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Consent Solicitation Statement. Accordingly, EPL, the guarantors party thereto and the Trustee entered into the Supplemental Indenture. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Statement, we paid an aggregate cash payment equal to $2.50 per $1,000 principal amount of 8.25% Senior Notes for which consents to the Proposed COC Amendments were validly delivered and unrevoked.

EGC believes that the fair value of the $510 million of 8.25% Senior Notes outstanding as of June 30, 2014 was $545.7 million based on quoted prices and the market is not an active market; therefore, the fair value is classified within Level 2.

6.875% Senior Notes Due 2024

On May 27, 2014, EGC issued $650 million face value of 6.875%, unsecured senior notes due March 15, 2024 at par (“6.875% Senior Notes”). Presently, the 6.875% Senior Notes are not registered under the Securities Act, however EGC and its guarantors have agreed, pursuant to a registration rights agreement with the initial purchasers of the 6.875% Senior Notes, to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) with respect to an offer to exchange a new series of freely tradable notes having substantially identical terms as the 6.875% Senior Notes and use its reasonable best efforts to cause that registration statement to be declared effective within 365 days after the issue date of the 6.875% Senior Notes. EGC incurred underwriting and direct offering costs of approximately $11 million which have been capitalized and will be amortized over the life of the 6.875% Senior Notes.

On or after March 15, 2019, EGC will have the right to redeem all or some of the 6.875% Senior Notes at specified redemption prices specified in the indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Prior to March 15, 2017, EGC may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 6.875% Senior Notes originally issued at a price equal to 106.875% of the aggregate principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, in an amount not greater than the proceeds of certain equity offerings and provided that (i) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes remains outstanding immediately after giving effect to such redemption; and (ii) any such redemption shall be made within 180 days of the date of closing of such equity offering. In addition, prior to March 15, 2019, EGC may redeem all or part of the 6.875% Senior Notes at a price equal to 100% of their aggregate principal amount plus a make-whole premium and accrued and unpaid interest. EGC is required to make an offer to repurchase the 6.875% Senior Notes upon a change of control at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of 6.875% Senior Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest and from the net proceeds of the certain asset sales under specified circumstances each of which as defined in the indenture governing the 6.875% Senior Notes.

The indenture governing the 6.875% Senior Notes will, among other things, limit EGC’s ability and the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to transfer or sell assets, make loans or investments, pay dividends, redeem subordinated indebtedness or make other restricted payments, incur or guarantee additional indebtedness or issue disqualified capital stock, create or incur certain liens, incur dividend or other payment restrictions affecting certain subsidiaries, consummate a merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets, enter into transactions with affiliates and engage in business other than the oil and gas business.

EGC believes that the fair value of the $650 million of 6.875% Senior Notes outstanding as of June 30, 2014 was $663 million based on quoted prices and the market is not an active market; therefore, the fair value is classified within Level 2.

The 6.875% Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by us and each of EGC’s existing and future material domestic subsidiaries.

3.0% Senior Convertible Notes due 2018

On November 18, 2013, the Company sold $400 million face value of 3.0% Senior Convertible Notes due 2018 (the “3.0% Senior Convertible Notes”). The Company incurred underwriting and direct offering costs of $7.6 million which have been capitalized and will be amortized over the life of the 3.0% Senior Convertible Notes. The 3.0% Senior Convertible Notes are convertible into cash, shares of common stock or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at the Company’s election, based on an initial conversion rate of 24.7523 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 3.0% Senior Convertible Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $40.40 per share of common stock). The conversion rate, and thus the conversion price, may be adjusted under certain circumstances as described in the indenture governing the 3.0% Senior Convertible Notes.

Upon conversion, the Company will be obligated to pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of common stock or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at its election. If the Company satisfies its conversion obligation solely in cash or through payment and delivery, as the case may be, of a combination of cash and shares of common stock, the amount of cash and shares of common stock, if any, due upon conversion will be based on a daily conversion value (as described in the indenture governing the 3.0% Senior Convertible Notes) calculated on a proportionate basis for each trading day in a 25 consecutive trading-day conversion period (as described in the indenture governing the 3.0% Senior Convertible Notes). Upon any conversion, subject to certain exceptions, holders of the 3.0% Senior Convertible Notes will not receive any cash payment representing accrued and unpaid interest. Instead, interest will be paid by the cash, shares of common stock or a combination of cash and shares of common stock paid or delivered, as the case may be, upon conversion of a convertible note.

If holders elect to convert the notes in connection with certain fundamental change transactions described in the indenture governing the 3.0% Senior Convertible Notes, the Company will increase the conversion rate by a number of additional shares determined by reference to the provisions contained in the indenture governing the 3.0% Senior Convertible Notes based on the effective date of, and the price paid (or deemed paid) per share of common stock in, such make-whole fundamental change. If holders of common stock receive only cash in connection with certain make-whole fundamental changes, the price paid (or deemed paid) per share will be the cash amount paid per share. Otherwise, the price paid (or deemed paid) per share will be equal to the average of the closing sale prices of common stock on the five trading days prior to, but excluding, the effective date of such make-whole fundamental change.

If the Company undergoes a fundamental change (as defined in the indenture governing the 3.0% Senior Convertible Notes) prior to maturity, holders of the 3.0% Senior Convertible Notes will have the right, at their option, to require the Company to repurchase for cash some or all of their notes at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes being repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest (including additional interest, if any) to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.

For accounting purposes, the $400 million aggregate principal amount of 3% Senior Convertible Notes for which we received cash was recorded at fair market value by applying the implied straight debt rate of 6.75% to allocate the proceeds between the debt component and the convertible equity component of the 3% Senior Convertible Notes. Based on applying the implied straight debt rate, the $400 million aggregate principal amount of the 3% Senior Convertible Notes was recorded at $336.6 million and the $63.4 million original issue discount will be amortized as an increase in interest expense over the life of the 3% Senior Convertible Notes.

The Company believes that the fair value of the $400 million of 3.0% Senior Convertible Notes, including the equity conversion feature, outstanding as of June 30, 2014 was $396.8 million based on quoted prices and the market is not an active market; therefore, the fair value is classified within Level 2.

7.5% Senior Notes Due 2021

On September 26, 2013, EGC issued $500 million face value of 7.5%, unsecured senior notes due December 15, 2021 at par (“7.5% Senior Notes”). Presently, the 7.5% Senior Notes are not registered under the Securities Act, however EGC and its guarantors will agree, pursuant to a registration rights agreement with the initial purchasers of the 7.5% Senior Notes, to file a registration statement with the SEC with respect to an offer to exchange a new series of freely tradable notes having substantially identical terms as the 7.50% Senior Notes and use its reasonable best efforts to cause that registration statement to be declared effective within 270 days after the issue date of the 7.5% Senior Notes. In April 2014, we filed Amendment No. 1 to the registration statement for an offer to exchange the 7.5% Senior Notes with a new series of freely tradable notes having substantially identical terms as the 7.5% Senior Notes with the SEC, the registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on April 25, 2014 and we completed the exchange on May 23, 2014. EGC incurred underwriting and direct offering costs of $8.6 million which have been capitalized and will be amortized over the life of the 7.5% Senior Notes.

On or after December 15, 2016, EGC will have the right to redeem all or some of the 7.5% Senior Notes at specified redemption prices, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Prior to December 15, 2016, EGC may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 7.5% Senior Notes originally issued at a price equal to 107.5% of the aggregate principal amount in an amount not greater than the proceeds of certain equity offerings. In addition, prior to December 15, 2016, EGC may redeem all or part of the 7.5% Senior Notes at a price equal to 100% of their aggregate principal amount plus a make-whole premium and accrued and unpaid interest. EGC is required to make an offer to repurchase the 7.5% Senior Notes upon a change of control and from the net proceeds of the certain asset sales under specified circumstances each of which as defined in the indenture governing the 7.5% Senior Notes.

The indenture governing the 7.5% Senior Notes will, among other things, limit EGC’s ability and the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to transfer or sell assets, make loans or investments, pay dividends, redeem subordinated indebtedness or make other restricted payments, incur or guarantee additional indebtedness or issue disqualified capital stock, create or incur certain liens, incur dividend or other payment restrictions affecting certain subsidiaries, consummate a merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets, enter into transactions with affiliates and engage in business other than the oil and gas business.

EGC believes that the fair value of the $500 million of 7.5% Senior Notes outstanding as of June 30, 2014 was $541.3 million based on quoted prices and the market is not an active market; therefore, the fair value is classified within Level 2.

The 7.5% Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by us and each of EGC’s existing and future material domestic subsidiaries.

9.25% Senior Notes

On December 17, 2010, EGC issued $750 million face value of 9.25%, unsecured senior notes due December 15, 2017 at par (the “9.25% Old Senior Notes”). It exchanged $749 million aggregate principal of the 9.25% Old Senior Notes for $749 million aggregate principal amount of newly issued notes (the “9.25% Senior Notes”) registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), on July 8, 2011. The 9.25% Senior Notes bear identical terms and conditions as the 9.25% Old Senior Notes. The trading restrictions on the remaining $1 million face value of the 9.25% Old Senior Notes were lifted on December 17, 2011.

The 9.25% Senior Notes are callable at 104.625% starting December 15, 2014, with such premium declining to zero by December 15, 2016. The 9.25% Senior Notes also provide for the redemption of up to 35% of the 9.25% Senior Notes outstanding at 109.25% prior to December 15, 2013 with the proceeds from any equity raised. EGC incurred underwriting and direct offering costs of $15.4 million which have been capitalized and will be amortized over the life of the notes.

Note 9 — Derivative Financial Instruments

We enter into hedging transactions with a diversified group of investment-grade rated counterparties, primarily financial institutions, for our derivative transactions to reduce the concentration of exposure to any individual counterparty and to reduce exposure to fluctuations in the price of crude oil and natural gas. We use financially settled crude oil and natural gas puts, swaps, zero-cost collars and three-way collars. The Company designates a majority of its derivative financial instruments as cash flow hedges. No components of the cash flow hedging instruments are excluded from the assessment of hedge ineffectiveness. Any gains or losses resulting from the change in fair value from hedging transactions that are determined to be ineffective are recorded as a loss (gain) on derivative financial instruments, whereas gains and losses from the settlement of cash flow hedging contracts are recorded in crude oil and natural gas revenue in the same period during which the hedged transactions are settled.

When the Company discontinues cash flow hedge accounting because it is no longer probable that an anticipated transaction will occur in the originally expected period, changes to fair value accumulated in other comprehensive income are recognized immediately into earnings.

Note 9 — Derivative Financial Instruments  – (continued)

With a financially settled purchased put, the counterparty is required to make a payment to us if the settlement price for any settlement period is below the hedged price of the transaction. With a swap, the counterparty is required to make a payment to us if the settlement price for a settlement period is below the hedged price for the transaction, and we are required to make a payment to the counterparty if the settlement price for any settlement period is above the hedged price for the transaction. With a zero-cost collar, the counterparty is required to make a payment to us if the settlement price for any settlement period is below the floor price of the collar, and we are required to make a payment to the counterparty if the settlement price for any settlement period is above the cap price for the collar. A three-way collar is a combination of options consisting of a sold call, a purchased put and a sold put. The sold call establishes a maximum price we will receive for the volumes under contract. The purchased put establishes a minimum price unless the market price falls below the sold put, at which point the minimum price would be the reference price (i.e., NYMEX WTI and/or BRENT, IPE) plus the difference between the purchased put and the sold put strike price.

Most of our crude oil production is Heavy Louisiana Sweet (“HLS”). Through June 30, 2011, we utilized West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”), NYMEX based derivatives as the exclusive means of hedging our fixed price commodity risk thereby resulting in HLS/WTI basis exposure. During the quarter ended September 30, 2011, the Company began including ICE Brent Futures (“Brent”) collars and three-way collars in our hedging portfolio. By including Brent benchmarks in our crude hedging, we can more appropriately manage our exposure and price risk. In April 2014 we began including Argus-LLS futures collars in our hedging portfolio to appropriately align and manage our exposure and price risk to market conditions.

Subsequent to the EPL Acquisition, we assumed EPL’s existing hedges and expect to carry those hedges through the end of contract term beginning from June 2014 through December 2015. EPL’s oil contracts are primarily swaps and benchmarked to Argus-LLS and Brent.

The energy markets have historically been very volatile, and there can be no assurances that crude oil and natural gas prices will not be subject to wide fluctuations in the future. While the use of hedging arrangements helps to limit the downside risk of adverse price movements, they may also limit future gains from favorable price movements.

We have monetized certain hedge positions at various times since the quarter ended March 31, 2009 through the quarter ended June 30, 2013, and received $181.3 million. These monetized amounts were recorded in stockholders’ equity as part of other comprehensive income (“OCI”) and are recognized in income over the contract life of the underlying hedge contracts. As of June 30, 2014, all of the monetized amounts remaining in OCI were recognized in income.

During the year ended June 30, 2013, we repositioned certain hedge positions by selling puts on certain existing calendar year 2013 hedge collar contracts and purchasing new put spread contracts. The $2.2 million received from the sale of puts were recorded as deferred hedge revenue and were recognized in income over the life of the underlying hedge contracts through December 31, 2013. As of June 30, 2014, all of the amounts remaining in deferred hedge revenue were recognized in income.

The amount expected to be reclassified from other comprehensive income to income in the next 12 months is a gain of $24.9 million ($16.2 million net of tax) on our commodity hedges. The estimated and actual amounts are likely to vary significantly due to changes in market conditions.

We monitor the creditworthiness of our counterparties. However, we are not able to predict sudden changes in counterparties’ creditworthiness. In addition, even if such changes are not sudden, we may be limited in our ability to mitigate an increase in counterparty credit risk. Possible actions would be to transfer our position to another counterparty or request a voluntary termination of the derivative contracts resulting in a cash settlement. Should one of these financial counterparties not perform, we may not realize the benefit of some of our derivative instruments under lower commodity prices, and could incur a loss. At June 30, 2014, we had no deposits for collateral with our counterparties.

Note 10 — Stockholders’ Equity

Common Stock

On August 1, 2007, our common stock was admitted for trading on The NASDAQ Capital Market, and on August 12, 2011, our common stock was admitted for trading on The NASDAQ Global Select Market (“NASDAQ”). Our common stock trades on the NASDAQ and on the Alternative Investment Market of the London Stock Exchange (“AIM”) under the symbol “EXXI.” Our shareholders are entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held on all matters to be voted on by shareholders. We have 200,000,000 authorized common shares, par value of $0.005 per share.

We paid quarterly cash dividends of $0.07 per share to holders of our common stock on September 14, 2012, December 14, 2012 and March 15, 2013 to shareholders of record on August 31, 2012, November 30, 2012 and March 1, 2013, respectively, and paid quarterly cash dividends of $0.12 per share to holders of our common stock on June 14, 2013, September 13, 2013, December 13, 2013, March 14, 2014 and June 13, 2014, to shareholders of record on May 31, 2013, August 30, 2013, November 29, 2013, February 28, 2014 and May 30, 2014, respectively.

On July 16, 2014, our Board of Directors approved payment of a quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per share to the holders of our common stock. The quarterly dividend will be paid on September 12, 2014 to shareholders of record on August 29, 2014.

In May 2013, our Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program authorizing us to repurchase up to $250 million in value of our common stock for an extended period of time, in one or more open market transactions. The repurchase program authorizes us to make repurchases on a discretionary basis as determined by management, subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements, available liquidity and other appropriate factors. The repurchase program does not obligate us to acquire any particular amount of common stock and may be modified or suspended at any time and could be terminated prior to completion. The

repurchase program will be funded with cash on hand or borrowings on our revolving credit facility. Any repurchased shares of common stock will be retained at our subsidiary level, subject to transfer to the parent company where they may be retired.

Pursuant to the stock repurchase program approved by our Board of Directors in May 2013, during the year ended June 30, 2014, we incurred $94.2 million to repurchase 3,700,463 shares of our common stock at a weighted average price per share, excluding fees, of $25.45 and during the year ended June 30, 2013, we incurred $72.7 million to repurchase 2,938,900 shares of our common stock at a weighted average price per share, excluding fees, of $24.70. As of June 30, 2014, $83.2 million remains available for repurchase under the share repurchase program.

In addition, concurrently with the offering of our 3.0% Senior Convertible Notes in November 2013, one of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary repurchased 2,776,200 shares of the Company’s common stock for approximately $76 million, at a weighted average price per share, excluding fees of $27.39.

In February 2014, we retired 2,087,126 shares of our common stock, resulting in 7,329,100 shares of common stock being held in treasury. The entire 7,329,100 shares of common stock in treasury were reissued on June 3, 2014 as part of our common stock issued to EPL stockholders upon merger.

As discussed in Note 6 — Long-Term Debt of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-K, in November 2013, we sold $400 million of 3% Senior Convertible Notes. The $63.4 million allocated to the equity portion of the 3% Senior Convertible Notes, less offering costs of $1.4 million, were recorded as an increase in additional paid in capital.

As discussed in Note 3 — Acquisitions and Dispositions of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-K, upon closing of the EPL Acquisition, we issued 23,320,955 of our common stock, including the reissue of our common stock held in treasury as noted above towards the stock component of the EPL purchase price.

Preferred Stock

Our bye-laws authorize the issuance of 7,500,000 shares of preferred stock. Our Board of Directors is empowered, without shareholder approval, to issue preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of common stock. Shares of previously issued preferred stock that have been cancelled are available for future issuance.

Dividends on both the 5.625% Perpetual Convertible Preferred Stock (“5.625% Preferred Stock”) and the 7.25% Perpetual Convertible Preferred Stock (“7.25% Preferred Stock”) are payable quarterly in arrears on March 15, June 15, September 15 and December 15 of each year.

Dividends on both the 5.625% Preferred Stock and the 7.25% Preferred Stock may be paid in cash or, where freely transferable by any non-affiliate recipient thereof, shares of our common stock, or a combination thereof. If we elect to make payments in shares of common stock, such shares shall be valued for such purposes at 95% of the market value of our common stock as determined on the second trading day immediately prior to the record date for such dividend.

Conversion of Preferred Stock

During the year ended June 30, 2014, we canceled and converted a total of 428 shares of our 5.625% Preferred Stock into a total of 4,288 shares of common stock using a conversion rate ranging from 10.0147 to 10.0579 common shares per preferred share and during the year ended June 30, 2013, we canceled and converted a total of 929 shares of our 5.625% Preferred Stock into a total of 9,183 shares of common stock using a conversion rate ranging from 9.8578 to 9.899 common shares per preferred share.

The 5.625% Preferred Stock became callable beginning December 15, 2013 if our common stock trading price exceeds $32.45 per share for 20 of 30 consecutive trading days.

Note 12 — Employee Benefit Plans

The Energy XXI Services, LLC 2006 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“Incentive Plan”).  We maintain an incentive and retention program for our employees. Participation shares (or “Restricted Stock Units”) are issued from time to time at a value equal to our common share price at the time of issue. The Restricted Stock Units generally vest equally over a three-year period. When vesting occurs, we pay the employee an amount equal to the then current common share price times the number of Restricted Stock Units.

Performance Units

For fiscal 2014, 2013 and 2012, we also awarded performance units. Of the total performance units awarded, 25% are time-based performance units (“Time-Based Performance Units”) and 75% are Total Shareholder Return Performance-Based Units (“TSR Performance-Based Units”). Both the Time-Based Performance Units and TSR Performance-Based Units vest equally over a three-year period.

Time-Based Performance Units.  The amount due the employee at the vesting date is equal to the grant date unit value of $5.00 plus the appreciation in the stock price over the performance period, multiplied by the number of units that vest. For the fiscal year 2012 grant the initial stock price was $34.40 and for the fiscal year 2013 grant the initial stock price was $33.20 and for the fiscal year 2014 grant the initial stock price was $21.72.

TSR Performance-Based Units.  For each TSR Performance-Based Unit, the executive will receive a cash payment equal to the grant date unit value of $5.00 multiplied by (a) the cumulative percentage change in the price per share of the Company’s common stock from the date on which the TSR Performance-Based Units were granted (the “Total Shareholder Return”) and (b) the TSR Unit Number Modifier.

In addition, the employee may have the opportunity to earn additional compensation based on the Company’s Total Shareholder Return at the end of the third Performance Period.

At our discretion, at the time the Restricted Stock Units and Performance Units vest, the amount due employees will be settled in either common shares or cash. Upon a change in control of the Company, as defined in the Incentive Plan, all outstanding Restricted Stock Units and Performance Units become immediately vested and payable. Historically, we have settled all vesting awards in cash. The July 21, 2014 vesting of the July 21, 2013 and 2012 Performance Unit awards were settled 50% in common stock and future vesting of the Performance Units may be settled in stock at the discretion of our board of directors.

As of June 30, 2014, we have 1,394,175 unvested Restricted Stock Units and 6,780,358 unvested Performance Based Units.

Stock Purchase Plan

Effective as of July 1, 2008, we adopted the Energy XXI Services, LLC 2008 Fair Market Value Stock Purchase Plan (“2008 Purchase Plan”), which allows eligible employees, directors, and other service providers of ours and our subsidiaries to purchase from us shares of our common stock that have either been purchased by us on the open market or are newly issued by us. During the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012, we issued 148,519 shares, 213,763 shares and 305,401 shares, respectively, under the 2008 Purchase Plan.

In November 2008 we adopted the Energy XXI Services, LLC Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Employee Stock Purchase Plan”) which allows employees to purchase common stock at a 15% discount from the lower of the common stock closing price on the first or last day of the offering period. The current offering period is from July 1, 2014 to December 31, 2014. We use the Black-Scholes Model to determine fair value, which incorporates assumptions to value stock-based awards. The shares issuable under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan are included in calculating diluted earnings per share, if dilutive. As of June 30, 2014 there was no unrecognized compensation. The compensation expense recognized and shares issued under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan were as follows (in thousands, except for shares):

     
  Year Ended June 30,
     2014   2013   2012
Compensation expense   $ 866     $ 813     $ 729  
Shares issued     92,297       74,806       46,985  

Stock Options

In September 2008, our Board of Directors granted 300,000 stock options to certain officers of the Company. These options to purchase our common stock were granted with an exercise price of $17.50 per share. These options vested over a three year period and may be exercised any time prior to September 10, 2018. We utilized the Black-Scholes model to determine the fair value of these stock options. As of June 30, 2014, 100,000 of the vested options have been exercised and the remaining 200,000 vested options have not been exercised.

Defined Contribution Plans

Our employees are covered by a discretionary noncontributory profit sharing plan. The plan provides for annual employer contributions that can vary from year to year. We also sponsor a qualified 401(k) Plan that provides for matching. The contributions under these plans were as follows (in thousands):

We have a 20% interest in EXXI M21K and account for this investment using the equity method. EXXI M21K is the guarantor of a $100 million line of credit entered into by M21K. See Note 5 — Equity Method Investments of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-K.

We have provided a guarantee related to the payment of asset retirement obligations and other liabilities by M21K for EP Energy Property acquisition estimated at $65 million and $1.8 million, respectively. For the LLOG Exploration acquisition, we guaranteed payment of asset retirement obligations by M21K estimated at $36.7 million. For the Eugene Island 330 and South Marsh Island 128 properties purchase, we guaranteed payment of asset retirement obligation by M21K estimated at $18.6 million. For these guarantees, M21K has agreed to pay us $6.3 million, $3.3 million and $1.7 million, respectively, over a period of three years from the respective acquisition dates. For the year ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we have received $3.1 million and $1.9 million, respectively, related to such guarantees.

Prior to the LLOG Exploration acquisition, EGC received a management fee of $0.83 per BOE produced for the EP Energy property acquisition for providing administrative assistance in carrying out M21K operations. In conjunction with the LLOG Exploration acquisition, on September 1, 2013, this fee was increased to $1.15 per BOE produced. However, after the Eugene Island 330 and South Marsh Island 128 properties purchase on April 1, 2014, this fee was reduced to $0.98 per BOE produced. For the year ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, EGC received management fees of $3.8 million and $1.7 million, respectively.

On April 1, 2014 we closed on sale of certain oil and gas properties to M21K and on June 3, 2014, Energy XXI GOM, LLC, (“EXXI GOM”) our wholly owned indirect subsidiary closed on the sale of its 100% interests in South Pass 49 field to EPL, which is our wholly owned indirect subsidiary.

Note 14 — Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share of common stock is computed by dividing net income available for common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Except when the effect would be anti-dilutive, the diluted earnings per share include the impact of convertible preferred stock, restricted stock and other common stock equivalents. The following table sets forth the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) (in thousands, except per share data):

Note 15 — Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation.  We are involved in various legal proceedings and claims, which arise in the ordinary course of our business. We do not believe the ultimate resolution of any such actions will have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Litigation Related to the Merger

In March and April, 2014, three alleged EPL stockholders (the “plaintiffs”) filed three separate class action lawsuits in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware on behalf of EPL stockholders against EPL, its directors, Energy XXI, Energy XXI Gulf Coast, Inc., a Delaware corporation and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Energy XXI (“OpCo”), and Clyde Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of OpCo (“Merger Sub” and collectively, the “defendants”). The Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware consolidated these lawsuits on May 5, 2014. The consolidated lawsuit is styled In re EPL Oil & Gas Inc. Shareholders Litigation, C.A. No. 9460-VCN, in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “lawsuit”).

Plaintiffs allege a variety of causes of action challenging the Agreement and Plan of Merger between Energy XXI, OpCo, Merger Sub, and EPL (the “merger agreement”), which provides for the acquisition of EPL by Energy XXI. Plaintiffs allege that (a) EPL’s directors have allegedly breached fiduciary duties in connection with the merger and (b) Energy XXI, OpCo, Merger Sub, and EPL have allegedly aided and abetted in these alleged breaches of fiduciary duties. Plaintiffs’ causes of action are based on their allegations that (i) the merger allegedly provided inadequate consideration to EPL stockholders for their shares of EPL common stock; (ii) the merger agreement contains contractual terms — including, among others, the (A) “no solicitation,” (B) “competing proposal,” and (C) “termination fee” provisions — that allegedly dissuaded other potential acquirers from making competing offers for shares of EPL common stock; (iii) certain of EPL’s officers and directors allegedly received benefits — including (A) an offer for one of EPL’s directors to join the Energy XXI board of directors and (B) the triggering of change-in-control provisions in notes held by EPL’s executive officers — that were not equally shared by EPL’s stockholders; (iv) Energy XXI required EPL’s officers and directors to agree to vote their shares of EPL common stock in favor of the merger; and

43


 
 

ENERGY XXI (BERMUDA) LIMITED
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 15 — Commitments and Contingencies  – (continued)

(v) EPL provided, and Energy XXI obtained, non-public information that allegedly allowed Energy XXI to acquire EPL for inadequate consideration. Plaintiffs also allege that the Registration Statement filed on Form S-4 by EPL and Energy XXI on April 1, 2014 omits information concerning, among other things, (i) the events leading up to the merger, (ii) EPL’s efforts to attract offers from other potential acquirors, (iii) EPL’s evaluation of the merger; (iv) negotiations between EPL and Energy XXI, and (v) the analysis of EPL’s financial advisor. Based on these allegations, plaintiffs seek to have the merger agreement rescinded. Plaintiffs also seek damages and attorneys’ fees.

Defendants date to answer, move to dismiss, or otherwise respond to the lawsuit has been indefinitely extended. Neither Energy XXI nor EPL can predict the outcome of the lawsuit or any others that might be filed subsequent to the date of the filing of this quarterly report; nor can either Energy XXI or EPL predict the amount of time and expense that will be required to resolve the lawsuit. The defendants intend to vigorously defend the lawsuit.

Lease Commitments.  We have non-cancelable operating leases for office space and others that expire through December 31, 2022. Future minimum lease commitments as of June 30, 2014 under the operating leases are as follows (in thousands):

Note 16 — Income Taxes

Our parent Company is a Bermuda company and it is generally not subject to income tax in Bermuda. We operate through our various subsidiaries in the United States; accordingly, income taxes have been provided based upon U.S. tax laws and rates as they apply to our current ownership structure.

During the year ended June 30, 2009, we incurred a pre-tax impairment loss related to our oil and gas properties due to the steep decline in global energy prices over that same time period. This loss is not deductible for tax purposes until the impaired properties are depleted or disposed of. As a result of this impairment, we have reported cumulative losses and remain marginally in an overall loss position. Due to this previous loss position, coupled with volatility in energy prices (at the time) causing uncertainty as to operating results, we established a valuation allowance of $175.0 million during the year ended June 30, 2009. We have subsequently reduced this allowance by $152.5 million due principally to the reported pre-tax income in the subsequent years. This results in an ending valuation allowance of $22.5 million at June 30, 2014, which relates to certain State of Louisiana net operating loss carryovers that we do not currently believe, on a more-likely-than-not basis, are realizable due to our current focus on offshore operations. Management continues to monitor this situation closely, and the results from any change in judgment reflecting a change in the underlying facts will be reflected in the period of the factual change.

The amounts of income before income taxes attributable to U.S. and non-U.S. operations are as follows:

The total change in deferred tax assets and liabilities in the year ended June 30, 2014 reflects a $25.3 million decrease in the deferred tax liability related to items recorded in other comprehensive income. This decrease resulted in a deferred tax asset at June 30, 2014 of $7.7 million related to other comprehensive income which is included in the derivative instruments line. The Company recorded $459 million in net deferred tax liabilities in conjunction with the EPL acquisition.

At June 30, 2014, we have a U.S. federal tax loss carryforward (“NOLs”) of approximately $1.3 billion, a state income tax loss carryforward of approximately $743 million, including amounts carried into the Company’s U.S. group from the EPL acquisition. The regular U.S. federal income tax NOLs will expire in various amounts beginning in 2026 and ending in 2034.

ENERGY XXI (BERMUDA) LIMITED
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 16 — Income Taxes  – (continued)

Section 382 of the Code (“Section 382”) imposes limitations on a corporation’s ability to utilize its NOLs if it experiences an “ownership change” and Code Section 383 provides similar rules for other tax attributes, e.g., capital losses. In general terms, an ownership change may result from transactions increasing the ownership percentage of certain shareholders in the stock of the corporation by more than 50 percentage points over a three year period. In the event of an ownership change, utilization of the NOLs would be subject to an annual limitation under Section 382 determined by multiplying the value of the Company’s stock at the time of the ownership change by the applicable long-term tax exempt rate (ranging between approximately 2.7% and 3.3%). Any unused annual limitation may be carried over to subsequent years. The amount of the limitation may, under certain circumstances, be increased by the built-in gains held by the Company at the time of the ownership change that are recognized in the five year period after the change. The Company experienced an ownership change on June 20, 2008, and a second ownership change on November 3, 2010. EPL similarly experienced an ownership change in 2009 and upon its acquisition in 2014. Based upon the Company’s determination of its annual limitation related to this ownership change, management believes that Section 382 should not otherwise limit the Company’s ability to utilize its federal or state NOLs or other attribute carryforwards during their applicable carryforward periods. Management will continue to monitor the potential impact of Code Sections 382 and 383 in future periods with respect to NOL and other tax carryforwards and will reassess realization of these carryforwards periodically.

We have not recorded any reserves for uncertain tax positions. We have a gross unrecorded noncurrent deferred tax asset of $13.2 million representing a percentage depletion carryover resulting from the EPL acquisition.

We filed our initial tax returns for the tax year ended June 30, 2006 as well as the returns for the tax years ended June 30, 2007 through 2013. The tax years ended June 30, 2011 through 2014 remain open to examination under the applicable statute of limitations in the U.S. in which the Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns. However, the statute of limitations for examination of NOLs and other similar attribute carryforwards does not begin to run until the year the attribute is utilized. In some instances, state statutes of limitations are longer than those under U.S. federal tax law. On May 13, 2014, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) notified the Company of their intent to examine the Company’s U.S. federal income tax return (Form 1120) for the year ended June 30, 2013. The resolution of unagreed tax issues cannot be predicted with absolute certainty, and differences between what has been recorded and the eventual outcomes may occur. The Company believes that it has adequately provided for income taxes and any related interest and penalties for all open tax years.

We have historically paid no significant US cash income taxes due to the election to expense intangible drilling costs and the presence of our NOLs. However, if current income trends continue, we could be responsible for making cash tax payments in fiscal 2015 from application of the alternative minimum tax (AMT) under current law. We presently do not expect to make any cash income tax payments during the upcoming fiscal year. If any such AMT payments were required, we believe that they would be recoverable against future regular income taxes due, with no expiration period. As such, we do not believe that any AMT payments would have a negative impact on earnings. We revise our ongoing estimated AMT obligation each quarter during the year.

We paid $3.6 million cash in U.S. withholding taxes during the year as a result of payments of interest on indebtedness and management fees to our Bermuda entities. These withholding taxes are presented as separate line items in the effective tax rate reconciliation and payments expected in the coming fiscal year are presented as a current federal withholding obligation in the balance sheet.

Major Customers.  We market substantially all of our oil and natural gas production from the properties we operate. We also market more than half of our oil and natural gas production from the fields we do not

operate. The majority of our operated gas, oil and condensate production is sold to a variety of purchasers under short-term (less than 12 months) contracts at market-based prices.

Shell Trading Company (“Shell”) accounted for approximately 45%, 35% and 32% of our total oil and natural gas revenues during the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. ExxonMobil Corporation (“ExxonMobil”) accounted for approximately 43%, 37% and 37% of our total oil and natural gas revenues during the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. J.P. Morgan Ventures Energy Corporation accounted for 12% and 18% of our total oil and natural gas revenues during the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. We also sell our production to a number of other customers, and we believe that those customers, along with other purchasers of oil and natural gas, would purchase all or substantially all of our production in the event that Shell or ExxonMobil curtailed their purchases.

Accounts Receivable.  Substantially all of our accounts receivable result from oil and natural gas sales and joint interest billings to third parties in the oil and gas industry. This concentration of customers and joint interest owners may impact our overall credit risk in that these entities may be similarly affected by changes in economic and other conditions.

Derivative Instruments.  Derivative instruments also expose us to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by counterparties. Generally, these contracts are with major investment grade financial institutions and other substantive counterparties. We believe that our credit risk related to the futures and swap contracts is no greater than the risk associated with the primary contracts and that the elimination of price risk through our hedging activities reduces volatility in our reported consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows from period to period and lowers our overall business risk.

Cash and Cash Equivalents.  We are subject to concentrations of credit risk with respect to our cash and cash equivalents, which we attempt to minimize by maintaining our cash and cash equivalents with major high credit quality financial institutions. At times cash balances may exceed limits federally insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Note 18 — Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis in our consolidated balance sheets. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:

The carrying amounts approximate fair value for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and notes payable due to the short-term nature or maturity of the instruments.

Our commodity derivative instruments consist of financially settled crude oil and natural gas puts, swaps, zero-cost collars and three way collars. We estimate the fair values of these instruments based on published forward commodity price curves, market volatility and contract terms as of the date of the estimate. The discount rate used in the discounted cash flow projections is based on published LIBOR rates. The fair values of commodity derivative instruments in an asset position include a measure of counterparty nonperformance risk, and the fair values of commodity derivative instruments in a liability position include a measure of our own nonperformance risk, each based on the current published issuer-weighted corporate default rates. See Note 9 — Derivative Financial Instruments of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-K.

The fair values of our stock based units are based on period-end stock price for our Restricted Stock Units and Time-Based Performance Units and the results of the Monte Carlo simulation model is used for our TSR Performance-Based Units. The Monte Carlo simulation model uses inputs relating to stock price, unit value expected volatility and expected rate of return. A change in any input can have a significant effect on TSR Performance-Based Units valuation.

Valuation techniques are generally classified into three categories: the market approach; the income approach; and the cost approach. The selection and application of one or more of these techniques requires

Note 18 — Fair Value of Financial Instruments  – (continued)

significant judgment and is primarily dependent upon the characteristics of the asset or liability, the principal (or most advantageous) market in which participants would transact for the asset or liability and the quality and availability of inputs. Inputs to valuation techniques are classified as either observable or unobservable within the following hierarchy:

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 — inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for an asset or liability. These include: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market-corroborated inputs).
Level 3 — unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own expectations about the assumptions that market participants would use in measuring the fair value of an asset or liability.

During fiscal year 2014, we did not have any transfers from or to Level 3. The following table presents the fair value of our Level 1 and Level 2 financial instruments (in thousands):

Oil and natural gas property costs excluded from the amortization base represent investments in unevaluated properties and include non-producing leasehold, geological and geophysical costs associated with leasehold or drilling interests and exploration drilling costs. We exclude these costs until the property has been evaluated. We also allocate a portion of our acquisition costs to unevaluated properties based on fair value. Costs are transferred to proved properties as the properties are evaluated or over the life of the reservoir. The wells in progress will be transferred into the amortization base once the results of the drilling activities are known.

We excluded from the amortization base the following costs related to unevaluated property costs and major development projects (in thousands):

Estimated Net Quantities of Oil and Natural Gas Reserves

The following estimates of the net proved oil and natural gas reserves of our oil and gas properties located entirely within the U.S. are based on evaluations prepared by our reservoir engineers and audited by NSAI. Reserve volumes and values were determined under the method prescribed by the SEC, which requires the application of the 12-month average price for natural gas and oil calculated as the unweighted arithmetic

average of the first-day-of-the-month price for each month within the 12-month prior period to the end of the reporting period and current costs held constant throughout the projected reserve life. Reserve estimates are inherently imprecise and estimates of new discoveries are more imprecise that those of producing oil and gas properties. Accordingly, reserve estimates are expected to change as additional performance data becomes available.

Estimated quantities of proved domestic oil and natural gas reserves and changes in quantities of proved developed and undeveloped reserves in thousands of barrels (“MBbls”) and millions of cubic feet (“MMcf”) for each of the periods indicated were as follows:

Our proved developed reserve estimates increased by 40.4 MMBOE or 37% to 149.9 MMBOE at June 30, 2014 from 109.5 MMBOE at June 30, 2013. The increase was primarily due to:

Acquisitions of 52.3 MMBOE, primarily in the EPL Acquisition.
Additions of 5.4 MMBOE from drilling, recompletions, and wells returned to production that were not previously booked, more than 80% of which are from the 4 fields: West Delta 30, Main Pass 61, Main Pass 73 and Grand Isle 16.

Offset by:

Downward revision of 2.7 MMBOE, mainly due to lower than forecasted per well throughput at West Delta 73 and sanding issues at South Timbalier 54, offset by positive performance revisions at West Delta 30 and South Pass 49.
Divestiture of 4.7 MMBOE, and
Production of 16.4 MMBOE.

Our proved undeveloped reserve estimates increased by 27.3 MMBOE or 40% to 96.3 MMBOE at June 30, 2014 from 69.0 MMBOE at June 30, 2013. The increase was primarily due to:

Acquisitions of 24.6 MMBOE, primarily in the EPL Acquisition.
Additions of 15.1 MMBOE, primarily additional drilling locations to make up for the lower throughput per well in West Delta 73, replacement locations for South Timbalier 54 and from identification of new proved undeveloped reserves locations in West Delta 30 and Main Pass 61.

Offset by

Downward revision of 5.9 MMBOE, primarily due to lease expiration in South Fresh Water Bayou, reallocation of reserves due to new information from the drilling program in Main Pass 61, and change of fluid type due to new information from the drilling program in West Delta 30.
Conversion of 6.6 MMBOE from proved undeveloped to proved developed reserves.

In the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, we developed approximately 9.5% of our PUD reserves included in our June 30, 2013 reserve report, consisting of 18 gross, 18 net wells at a net cost of approximately $160.9 million. In addition, we also spent $101.7 million in developing PUD reserves that were still in progress at the end of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014.

We update and approve our reserves development plan on an annual basis, which includes our program to drill PUD locations. Updates to our reserves development plan are based upon long range criteria, including top value projects, maximization of present value and production volumes, drilling obligations, five-year rule requirements, and anticipated availability of certain rig types. The relative portion of total PUD reserves that we develop over the next five years will not be uniform from year to year, but will vary by year depending on several factors; including financial targets such as reducing debt and/or drilling within cash flow, drilling obligatory wells and the inclusion of newly acquired proved undeveloped reserves. As scheduled in our long range plan, all of our proved undeveloped locations will be developed within five years from the time they are first recognized as proved undeveloped locations in our report, with the exception of two. They are locations to be sidetracked from existing wellbores which are still producing economically thus cannot be drilled until the proved developed producing zones deplete.

Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows

Future cash inflows as of June 30, 2014 were computed using the following prices. The average oil price prior to quality, transportation fees, and regional price differentials was $96.75 per barrel of oil (calculated using the unweighted average first-day-of-the-month West Texas Intermediate posted prices during the

12-month period ending on June 30, 2014). The report forecasts crude oil and NGL production separately. The average realized adjusted product prices weighted by production over the remaining lives of the properties, used to determine future net revenues were $103.80 per barrel of oil and $42.10 per barrel of NGLs, after adjusting for quality, transportation fees, and regional price differentials. The $103.80 per barrel realized oil price compares to an unweighted average first-day-of-the-month West Texas Intermediate price of $96.75 per barrel (differential of $7.05 per barrel).

For natural gas, the average Henry Hub price used was $4.10 per MMBtu, prior to adjustments for energy content, transportation fees, and regional price differentials (calculated using the unweighted average first-day-of-the-month Henry Hub spot price). The average adjusted realized natural gas price, weighted by production over the remaining lives of the properties used to determine future net revenues, was $4.14 per Mcf after adjusting for energy content, transportation fees, and regional price differentials.

Our indirect, 100%-owned subsidiary, EGC, issued $650 million of its 6.875% Senior Notes due 2024 on May 27, 2014, $500 million of its 7.5% Senior Notes due 2021 on September 26, 2013, $750 million of its 9.25% Senior Notes due 2017 on December 17, 2010 and $250 million of its 7.75% Senior Notes due 2019 on February 25, 2011. These notes are jointly, severally, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Bermuda parent company and each of EGC’s existing and future material domestic subsidiaries other than EPL and its subsidiaries, except that a guarantor can be automatically released and relieved of its obligations under certain customary circumstances contained in the above senior note indentures. These customary circumstances include: when a guarantor is declared “unrestricted” for covenant purposes, when the requirements for legal defeasance or covenant defeasance or to discharge the indenture have been satisfied, when the guarantor is sold or sells all of its assets or the guarantor no longer guarantees any obligations under EGC’s revolving credit facility. When securities that are guaranteed are issued in a registered offering, Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X of the SEC requires the issuer and guarantors to file separate financial statements. The Company meets the conditions in Rule 3-10 to report information about the assets, results of operations and comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows of the parent, subsidiary issuer and subsidiary guarantors using an alternative approach, which is to include in a footnote to the parent company’s financial statements condensed consolidating financial information for the same periods as those presented for the parent company financial statements.

The information is presented using the equity method of accounting for investments in subsidiaries. Transactions between entities are presented on a gross basis in the Bermuda parent company, EGC, the guarantor subsidiaries, and non-guarantor subsidiaries columns with consolidating entries presented in the eliminations column. The principal consolidating entries eliminate investments in subsidiaries, intercompany balances and intercompany revenues and expenses. The following supplemental condensed consolidating financial information has been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations for condensed financial information and does not include all disclosures included in annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.
