At June 30, 2010, the Company’s borrowing base was $1.2 billion, it had letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Facility of approximately $25,000, and its availability to borrow additional funds was approximately $852.0 million. The next scheduled borrowing base redetermination will occur in October 2010. Between scheduled borrowing base redeterminations, the Company and, if requested by 66 2/3 percent of the lenders, the lenders may each request one special redetermination. </div>   </div>  <div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif"> <div align="center" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 0pt"> <b> </b> </div> <div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">     In July 2010, the Company received an $800 million underwritten commitment from two of its lenders under the Credit Facility to expand the size of its existing Credit Facility from $1.2 billion to $2.0 billion as part of the financing for an upcoming acquisition. The expanded credit facility is expected to close simultaneously with such acquisition. See Note Q. </div> <div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">     Advances on the Credit Facility bear interest, at the Company’s option, based on (i) the prime rate of JPMorgan Chase Bank (“JPM Prime Rate”) (3.25 percent at June 30, 2010) or (ii) a Eurodollar rate (substantially equal to the London Interbank Offered Rate). At June 30, 2010, the interest rates of Eurodollar rate advances and JPM Prime Rate advances vary, with interest margins ranging from 200 to 300 basis points and 112.5 to 212.5 basis points, respectively, per annum depending on the debt balance outstanding. At June 30, 2010, the Company pays commitment fees on the unused portion of the available borrowing base of 50 basis points per annum. </div> <div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">     The Credit Facility also includes a same-day advance facility under which the Company may borrow funds from the administrative agent. Same-day advances cannot exceed $25 million and the maturity dates cannot exceed fourteen days. The interest rate on the same-day advance facility is the JPM Prime Rate plus the applicable interest margin. </div> <div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">     The Company’s obligations under the Credit Facility are secured by a first lien on substantially all of the Company’s oil and natural gas properties. In addition, all of the Company’s subsidiaries are guarantors and all general partner, limited partner and membership interests in the Company’s subsidiaries owned by the Company have been pledged to secure borrowings under the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility contains various restrictive covenants and compliance requirements which include (a) maintenance of certain financial ratios, including (i) a quarterly ratio of total debt to consolidated earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depletion, depreciation, and amortization, exploration expense and other noncash income and expenses to be no greater than 4.0 to 1.0, and (ii) a ratio of current assets to current liabilities, excluding noncash assets and liabilities related to financial derivatives and asset retirement obligations and including the unfunded amounts under the Credit Facility, to be no less than 1.0 to 1.0; (b) limits on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and certain types of liens; (c) restrictions as to mergers, combinations and dispositions of assets; and (d) restrictions on the payment of cash dividends. At June 30, 2010, the Company was in compliance with its covenants under the Credit Facility. </div> <div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">     <b><i>8.625% unsecured senior notes. </i></b>On September 18, 2009, the Company completed its public offering of $300 million aggregate principal amount of 8.625% senior notes due 2017 (the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by all of the Company’s subsidiaries. </div> <div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">     The Senior Notes will mature on October 1, 2017, and interest is payable on the Senior Notes each April 1 and October 1. The Company received net proceeds of $288.2 million (net of related estimated offering costs), which were used to repay a portion of the outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility. </div> <div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">     The Company may redeem some or all of the Senior Notes at any time on or after October 1, 2013 at the redemption prices specified in the indenture governing the Senior Notes. The Company may also redeem up to 35 percent of the Senior Notes using all or a portion of the net proceeds of certain public sales of equity interests completed before October 1, 2012 at a redemption price as specified in the indenture. If the Company sells certain assets or experiences specific kinds of change of control, each as described in the indenture, each holder of the Senior Notes will have the right to require the Company to repurchase the Senior Notes at a purchase price described in the indenture plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase. At June 30, 2010, the Company was in compliance with its covenants in the indenture governing the Senior Notes. </div>   </div>  <div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif"> <div align="center" style="font-size: 10pt;
