Note 2 – Acquisition Dates
 
The results of operations of the BP Properties and the 2011 Acquisitions Properties have been included in the historical financial statements of the Company since their acquisition dates.
 
The acquisition of BP Properties was completed on March 30, 2012, with an effective date of January 1, 2012, for total consideration of approximately $1.17 billion.
 
The acquisition of Plains Properties was completed on December 15, 2011, with an effective date of November 1, 2011, for total consideration of approximately $555 million.
 
The acquisition of Panther Properties was completed on June 1, 2011, with an effective date of January 1, 2011, for total consideration of approximately $223 million.
 
The acquisition of SandRidge Properties was completed on April 1, 2011, with the same effective date, for total consideration of approximately $201 million.
 
The acquisition of Concho Properties was completed on March 31, 2011, with an effective date of March 1, 2011, for total consideration of approximately $194 million.
 
Note 3 – Preliminary Acquisition Accounting
 
The acquisitions are accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting.  Accordingly, the Company conducts assessments of net assets acquired and recognizes amounts for identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated acquisition date fair values, while transaction and integration costs associated with the acquisitions are expensed as incurred.  The initial accounting for the acquisition of the BP Properties is not complete and adjustments to estimated amounts, or recognition of additional assets acquired or liabilities assumed, may occur as more detailed analyses are completed and additional information is obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date.
 
The following presents the values assigned to the net assets acquired from BP as of the acquisition date (in thousands):
 
Assets:
     
Current
  $ 7,154  
Other property and equipment
    207,735  
Oil and natural gas properties
    979,336  
Total assets acquired
  $ 1,194,225  
         
Liabilities:
       
Current
  $ 8,823  
Asset retirement obligations
    18,437  
Total liabilities assumed
  $ 27,260  
         
Net assets acquired
  $ 1,166,965  
 
Current assets include receivables and inventory.  Current liabilities include payables, ad valorem taxes payable and environmental liabilities.
 
The fair value measurements of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on inputs that are not observable in the market and therefore represent Level 3 inputs.  The fair value of oil and natural gas properties and asset retirement obligations were measured using valuation techniques that convert future cash flows to a single

discounted amount.  Significant inputs to the valuation of oil and natural gas properties include estimates of: (i) reserves; (ii) future operating and development costs; (iii) future commodity prices; (iv) estimated future cash flows; and (v) a market-based weighted average cost of capital rate.  These inputs require significant judgments and estimates by the Company’s management at the time of the valuation and are the most sensitive and subject to change.
 
Note 4 – Pro Forma Adjustments
 
The Company’s historical results of operations include the results of properties acquired since the acquisition dates.  The pro forma statements of operations include adjustments to reflect the acquisition from BP as if it had been completed as of January 1, 2011, and the acquisitions from Plains, Panther, SandRidge and Concho as if they had been completed as of January 1, 2010.  The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations have been adjusted to:
 
(a)
record incremental depreciation, depletion and amortization expense, using the units-of-production method, related to oil and natural gas properties acquired as follows:
 
 
·
for the period from January 1 through March 30, 2012, and for the year ended December 31, 2011, $16 million and $65 million, respectively, related to the BP Properties
 
·
for the period from January 1 through December 15, 2011, $23 million related to the Plains Properties
 
·
for the period from January 1 through June 1, 2011, $7 million related to the Panther Properties
 
·
for the period from January 1 through April 1, 2011, $2 million related to the SandRidge Properties
 
·
for the period from January 1 through March 31, 2011, $3 million related to the Concho Properties
 
(b)
record accretion expense related to asset retirement obligations on oil and natural gas properties acquired as follows:
 
 
·
for the period from January 1 through March 30, 2012, and for the year ended December 31, 2011, $342,000 and $1 million, respectively, related to the BP Properties
 
·
for the period from January 1 through December 15, 2011, $520,000 related to the Plains Properties
 
·
for the period from January 1 through June 1, 2011, $26,000 related to the Panther Properties
 
·
for the period from January 1 through April 1, 2011, $128,000 related to the SandRidge Properties
 
·
for the period from January 1 through March 31, 2011, $3,000 related to the Concho Properties
 
(c)
record interest expense as follows:
 
 
·
incremental debt of approximately $1.17 billion incurred to fund the estimated closing price for the BP Properties; the assumed interest rate was 6.25%
 
·
incremental debt of approximately $544 million incurred to fund the purchase price of the Plains Properties; the assumed interest rate was 2.9%
 
·
incremental debt of approximately $223 million incurred to fund the purchase price of the Panther Properties; the assumed interest rate was 6.5%

      $ 369       $ 2,304  
 
(d)
record incremental amortization of deferred financing fees associated with debt incurred to fund the purchase price of the BP Properties and the Panther Properties
 
(e)
The Company is treated as a partnership for federal and state income tax purposes.  The Company subsidiaries that acquired the Properties are also treated as partnerships for federal and state income tax purposes.  Accordingly, no recognition has been given to federal and state income taxes in the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations.
 
The pro forma statements of operations also include an adjustment to the weighted average units outstanding to reflect units issued to fund the purchase price of the SandRidge Properties and the Concho Properties.
 
Note 5 – Supplemental Oil and Natural Gas Reserve Information
 
The following tables set forth certain unaudited pro forma information concerning LINN Energy’s proved oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids (“NGL”) reserves for the year ended December 31, 2011, giving effect to the Properties acquired from BP as if they had occurred on January 1, 2011.  There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating the quantities of proved reserves and projecting future rates of production and timing of development costs.  The following reserve data represent estimates only and should not be construed as being precise.

Summarized in the following table is information for the standardized measure of discounted cash flows relating to proved reserves as of December 31, 2011, giving effect to the BP Properties.  There are no future income tax expenses because the Company is not subject to federal income taxes.  Limited liability companies are subject to state income taxes in Texas; however, these amounts are immaterial.  The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows does not purport to be, nor should it be interpreted to present, the fair value of the oil and natural gas reserves of the properties.  An estimate of fair value would also take into account, among other things, the recovery of reserves not presently classified as proved, the value of unproved properties, and consideration of expected future economic and operating conditions.  For a discussion of the assumptions used in preparing the information presented, refer to the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, as well as to the historical statements of revenues and direct operating expenses of the BP Properties included elsewhere in this Form 8-K/A.

It is necessary to emphasize that the data presented should not be viewed as representing the expected cash flow from, or current value of, existing proved reserves since the computations are based on a large number of estimates and arbitrary assumptions.  Reserve quantities cannot be measured with precision and their estimation requires many judgmental determinations and frequent revisions.  The required projection of production and related expenditures over time requires further estimates with respect to pipeline availability, rates of demand and governmental control.  Actual future prices and costs are likely to be substantially different from the current prices and costs utilized in the computation of reported amounts.  Any analysis or evaluation of the reported amounts should give specific recognition to the computational methods utilized and the limitations inherent therein.
