Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

As previously disclosed, on November 20, 2013, Devon Energy Production Company, L.P., an Oklahoma limited partnership (“Buyer”) and wholly-owned subsidiary of Devon Energy Corporation (the “Company”), entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with GeoSouthern Intermediate Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and, solely with respect to certain sections specified therein, GeoSouthern Energy Corporation, a Texas corporation. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Buyer agreed to acquire (the “Acquisition”) Seller’s interests in certain affiliates (the “Acquired Companies”) that own certain oil and gas properties, leasehold mineral interest and related assets located in the Eagle Ford Formation.

On February 28, 2014, the Acquisition closed as contemplated by the Purchase Agreement. On that date Seller transferred the Acquired Companies to Devon GS Acquisition, L.L.C., an Oklahoma limited liability company and direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Buyer, in exchange for the aggregate purchase price of approximately $6 billion (the “Purchase Price”). The Purchase Price was funded by the Company with cash on hand and debt financing. Upon closing, a portion of the Purchase Price was placed into escrow for a specified period to fund certain indemnity obligations of Seller under the Purchase Agreement, if any.
