On October 12, 2012, W&T Offshore, Inc. (the “Company”) executed the Second Amendment to the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, among the Company, as borrower, Toronto Dominion (Texas) LLC, as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto (the “Amendment” and, together with the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, as amended, the “Credit Agreement”) which, among other things, allows for the issuance by the Company of additional senior unsecured indebtedness. Following the Amendment, the Company may issue additional senior unsecured indebtedness; however, the borrowing base under the Credit Agreement will be automatically and simultaneously reduced by $0.25 for every $1.00 increase in unsecured indebtedness in excess of the principal amount of the Company’s Existing Senior Notes (as such term is defined in the Credit Agreement) until such time as the borrowing base has been redetermined or otherwise adjusted pursuant to the Credit Agreement. The Amendment became effective October 12, 2012. All other terms of the agreement remain substantially the same following the Amendment, including the termination date of May 5, 2015, interest rates spreads and covenants.
The foregoing description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1.
