Item 8.01 Other Events.
On February 3, 2016, Rex Energy Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing the commencement of an exchange offer and consent solicitation related to the Company’s outstanding 8.875% Senior Notes due 2020 and 6.250% Senior Notes due 2022 (together, the “Existing Notes”). The Company is offering to exchange any and all of the Existing Notes held by eligible holders for up to (i) $480,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s new 10.00% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes due 2020 (the “New Notes”) and (ii) 10,125,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Shares”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Company’s Confidential Offering Memorandum and Consent Solicitation Statement and related Letter of Transmittal, each dated February 3, 2016. Concurrently with the exchange offer, the Company is soliciting consents from eligible holders to proposed amendments to the indentures governing the Existing Notes that would eliminate or modify certain restrictive covenants and modify certain defined terms. A copy of the press release is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
The New Notes and Shares to be offered have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities laws, and unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States or to U.S. persons except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of any of these securities, in any jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
