On February 2, 2021, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, issued $500 million aggregate principal amount of its 2026 Notes and $500 million aggregate principal amount of its 2029 Notes as part of a series of exit financing transactions being undertaken in connection with the Debtors’ Chapter 11 Cases and meant to provide the exit financing originally intended to be provided by the Exit Term Loan Facility pursuant to the Commitment Letter. Additionally, on the Effective Date, we entered into the Exit Credit Facility, a reserve-based credit facility with an initial borrowing base of $2.5 billion collateralized by our oil and gas properties. The aggregate initial elected commitments of the lenders under the Exit Credit Facility will be $1.75 billion of revolving Tranche A Loans and $220 million of fully funded Tranche B Loans on the Effective Date. See Note 5 for more information on our exit facilities.

On February 3, 2021, we reduced our workforce by 220 employees or approximately 15%, primarily in Oklahoma City and incurred charges of approximately $20 million. See Note 21 for more information regarding our workforce reduction.

We completed our financial restructuring and emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings on February 9, 2021. In support of the Plan, the enterprise value of the Successor was estimated and approved by the Bankruptcy Court to be in the range of $3.5 billion to $4.7 billion. We cannot currently estimate the financial effect of emergence from bankruptcy on our financial statements, although we expect to record material adjustments related to our Plan and the application of fresh-start reporting guidance upon the Effective Date. See Note 2 for more information regarding Chapter 11 proceedings including effects of the Plan.
