Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On October 3, 2014, Linn Energy, LLC (the “Company”), through certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, entered into an definitive purchase and sale agreement (the “Purchase and Sale Agreement”) to sell its entire position in the Granite Wash and Cleveland plays located in the Texas Panhandle and western Oklahoma to privately held institutional affiliates of EnerVest, Ltd. and FourPoint Energy, LLC, for a contract price of $1.95 billion, subject to satisfactory completion of title and environmental due diligence and closing conditions (the “Divestiture”). The Company anticipates that the Divestiture will close in the fourth quarter of 2014 with an effective date of September 1, 2014. There can be no assurance that all of the conditions to closing the Divestiture will be satisfied.
The foregoing description of the Purchase and Sale Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Purchase and Sale Agreement, a copy of which will be filed with the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended September 30, 2014. A copy of the press release announcing the Divestiture is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
