Item 1.01.  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On April 7, 2014, Energy XXI (Bermuda) Limited’s indirect wholly-owned subsidiary Energy XXI Gulf Coast, Inc. (“Gulf Coast”) received written confirmation from the administrative agent under its Second Amended and Restated First Lien Credit Agreement (the “First Lien Credit Agreement”) that it had received signature pages from all of the lenders under the First Lien Credit Agreement for the Seventh Amendment to Second Amended and Restated First Lien Credit Agreement dated as of April 7, 2014 (the “Amendment”). The Amendment also became effective as of such date based on satisfaction of the conditions to such effectiveness provided in the Amendment.

 

Under the Amendment, the borrowing base for Gulf Coast is established at $1,200,000,000 (an increase from $1,087,500,000) until the next redetermination of such borrowing base pursuant to the terms of the First Lien Credit Agreement. Additionally, the Amendment incorporates concepts relating to Gulf Coast’s 7.50% senior unsecured notes due 2021 (so that provisions under the First Lien Credit Agreement for such notes are commensurate with the provisions already existing therein for Gulf Coast’s 9.25% senior unsecured notes due 2017 and 7.75% senior unsecured notes due 2019) and further provides for Gulf Coast to incur an additional $750,000,000 of similar unsecured indebtedness (an increase from $250,000,000 under a basket permitting such indebtedness). However, Gulf Coast is restricted from borrowing twenty-five percent (25%) of the amount of any such additional indebtedness that is incurred pursuant to such basket until such time as the lenders under the First Lien Credit Agreement otherwise provide or waive such limitation.

 

A copy of the Amendment is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
