Item 8.01 Other Events
As previously reported by Swift Energy Company (the “Company”) in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 4, 2016 (the “Filing 8-K”), the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors”), filed voluntary petitions (the cases commenced thereby, the “Chapter 11 Cases”) seeking relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “ Bankruptcy Court”) under the caption In re Swift Energy Company, et al (Case No. 15-12670). In connection with the Chapter 11 Cases, on January 6, 2016, the Debtors entered into a Debtor-in-Possession Credit Agreement (the “DIP Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, as borrower, certain of the other Debtors as guarantors, the lenders party thereto, which consist of certain of the Noteholders (as defined below) (the “DIP Lenders”) and Cantor Fitzgerald Securities, as administrative agent for the DIP Lenders and as collateral agent. The Company is filing the DIP Credit Agreement, attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Report, which contains the conformed signatures of the parties to the DIP Credit Agreement.
On January 11, 2016, the Company filed with the Bankruptcy Court financing syndication procedures for its previously disclosed DIP Credit Agreement. The financing syndication process under the DIP Credit Agreement provides the Noteholders who are not yet DIP Lenders the opportunity to participate in the DIP Credit Agreement financing pursuant to the terms and conditions disclosed in the Filing 8-K. The filing with the Bankruptcy Court and the financing syndication procedures are attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
As used herein, the term “Noteholders” means holders of the Company’s (a) 7-1/8% senior unsecured notes due on June 1, 2017, (b) 8-7/8% senior unsecured notes due on January 15, 2020 and (c) 7-7/8% senior unsecured notes due on March 1, 2022.
