Acquisitions         In March, April and November 2010, the Company completed three separate acquisitions of producing properties located in the Wolfberry trend in the Permian for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $327 million (the Permian Acquisitions). The Permian Acquisitions were financed with net proceeds from the issuance of 8 million shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock in January 2010, cash generated from operations and net proceeds from the issuance of $300 million aggregate principal amount of the Company's 6.75% senior notes due in November 2020.         The Permian Acquisitions qualify as business combinations and, as such, the Company estimated the fair value of each property as of each acquisition date (the date on which the Company obtained control of the properties). The fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements also utilize assumptions of market participants. The Company used a discounted cash flow model based on an income approach and made market assumptions as to future commodity prices, projections of estimated quantities of oil and natural gas reserves, expectations for timing and amount of future development and operating costs, projections of future rates of production, expected recovery rates and risk adjusted discount rates. Due to the unobservable nature of the inputs, business combinations are deemed to use Level 3 inputs.         For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company recorded a $1.0 million gain (net of deferred income taxes of $0.7 million) in conjunction with usual and customary post-closing adjustments in the first quarter of 2011 to the purchase price of the November 2010 Permian acquisition. The gain was recorded in the Condensed Statements of Operations under the caption Gain on purchase.         The following table summarizes the consideration paid to the sellers and the amounts of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Permian Acquisitions. <div style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0pt;
