Item 8.01 Other Events.
On April 2, 2015, Goodrich Petroleum Corporation (the “Company”) filed a definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and set its annual meeting for May 5, 2015. Subsequent to such filing, the Company determined that it inadvertently failed to file the proxy statement as a preliminary proxy statement, as the Company is seeking stockholder approval for an amendment to its certificate of incorporation to increase the authorized capital stock of the Company.
To remedy this error, the Company has postponed its annual meeting to May 29, 2015 and today filed a preliminary proxy statement on Schedule 14A with the SEC related to such annual meeting. The record date for such annual meeting has been changed from March 20, 2015 to May 4, 2015. Only stockholders of record at the close of business on May 4, 2015 are entitled to notice of and to vote at the annual meeting. The Company also today mailed a notice of these changes to its stockholders. A copy of this notice is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
