Item 8.01. Other Events.

As previously disclosed on March 6, 2015, Laredo Petroleum, Inc. (the "Company") called for redemption all $550,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 9.5% Senior Notes due 2019 (the "2019 Notes"). The redemption of the 2019 Notes was conditioned upon the closing of the Company's previously announced offering of $350,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.25% Senior Notes due 2023 not later than April 3, 2015, which offering closed on March 18, 2015. Accordingly, on April 6, 2015 (the "Redemption Date"), the entire $550,000,000 outstanding principal amount of the Company's 2019 Notes was redeemed at a redemption price of 104.750% of the principal amount of the 2019 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the Redemption Date (the "Redemption"). As a result of the Redemption, the Amended & Restated Indenture, dated as of June 24, 2014, as supplemented by the Sixth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of December 3, 2014 (as so supplemented, the "Indenture"), among the Company, the guarantors party thereto and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee, governing the 2019 Notes is discharged and ceases to be of further effect as to all outstanding notes thereunder (subject to certain exceptions) as of the Redemption Date.
