Subsequent Events:

On July 29, 2014, we entered into an agreement to sell our Granite Wash assets for approximately $588 million (subject to customary purchase price adjustments). The sale of our Granite Wash assets will not significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves and as such, all proceeds will be recorded as adjustments to our domestic full cost pool with no gain or loss recognized. We expect the transaction to close in September of 2014.
