On June 5, 2018, SandRidge Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that it had sent a letter to shareholders outlining Carl C. Icahn and his affiliates’ (collectively, “Icahn”) poor track record in the energy industry, lack of a plan and false and misleading campaign against the Company. Additionally, the Company highlighted the support it received from leading independent proxy advisory firm, Glass, Lewis & Co., LLC, recommending that shareholders vote for a majority of the Company’s director nominees and withhold support on Icahn’s non-independent nominees, including two who work directly for Icahn and one recent former employee. A copy of the press release, which includes the full text of the letter, is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
