Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
On July 11, 2017 Abraxas closed on the acquisition of assets in Ward County, Texas previously announced on May 23, 2017. After adjustments for title defects, Abraxas acquired 1,894 net acres versus the originally announced 2,008 net acres. The closing purchase price for the acreage was $20.9 million versus the originally announced $22.2 million.
The description of the sale described under this Item 2.01 is qualified in its entirety by a copy of the Purchase and Sale Agreement incorporated by reference into this Form 8-K (the “Agreement”). The representations and warranties of the parties in the Agreement are, in many respects, qualified by materiality and limited to the knowledge of the entity making the representation and warranty, but their accuracy forms the basis of one of the conditions to the obligations of the parties to complete the transaction. Please note, however, that these representations and warranties were made only for purposes of the Agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties thereto, and are subject to limitations agreed to between the parties, including that they are qualified by disclosures between the parties that are not included with this report. Accordingly, investors and third parties should not rely on these representations and warranties as independent characterizations of the actual state of facts at the time they were made or otherwise but should consider them together with the other information that we have disclosed in other filings with the SEC.
