Item
1.01 – Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Purchase
Agreement
On
December 3, 2010, Energy XXI Gulf Coast, Inc. (the “Company”), Energy XXI
(Bermuda) Limited and several of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries
(together with Energy XXI (Bermuda) Limited, the “Guarantors”) entered into a
Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with RBS Securities Inc., UBS
Securities LLC and BNP Paribas Securities Corp., as representatives of the
several initial purchasers (collectively, the “Initial Purchasers”), relating to
the issuance and sale of $750,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of the
Company’s 9.25% senior unsecured notes due 2017 (the “Notes”). The Notes have a
yield to maturity of 9.25%. The Notes were offered and sold in a transaction
exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “Securities Act”). The Notes were resold to qualified institutional
buyers in reliance on Rule 144A of the Securities Act.
The
Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the
parties and indemnification and contribution provisions under which the Company
and the Guarantors, on one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other, have
agreed to indemnify each other against certain liabilities, including
liabilities under the Securities Act. The Company and the Guarantors also agreed
to enter into a registration rights agreement with holders of the
Notes.
Relationships
The
Initial Purchasers and certain of their affiliates have provided and may in the
future provide financial advisory, investment banking and commercial banking
services in the ordinary course of business to the Company and the Guarantors,
for which they receive customary fees and expense reimbursement. Affiliates of
certain of the Initial Purchasers are lenders under the Company’s revolving
credit facility, which the Company partially repaid with the net proceeds from
the offering of the Notes.
Item
8.01 – Other Events.
On
December 3, 2010, the Company issued a press release announcing the pricing of
the Notes. A copy of the Company’s press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to
this Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
The press
release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to
buy, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state in which the
offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or
qualification under the securities laws of any such state.
