Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The statements contained in this report that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements that represent management’s beliefs and assumptions based on currently available information. Forward-looking statements include information concerning our possible or assumed future results of operations, business strategies, need for financing, competitive position, and potential growth opportunities. Our forward-looking statements do not consider the effects of future legislation or regulations. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts and can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as the words “believes,” “intends,” “may,” “should,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “could,” “plans,” “estimates,” “projects,” “targets,” or comparable terminology or by discussions of strategy or trends. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot give any assurances that these expectations will prove to be correct. Such statements by their nature involve risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect expected results, and actual future results could differ materially from those described in such forward-looking statements.
Among the factors that could cause actual future results to differ materially are the risks and uncertainties discussed in this report and in our Annual Report (as defined in Note 2 hereafter). Should our underlying assumptions prove incorrect or the consequences of the aforementioned risks worsen, actual results could differ materially from those expected. Forward-looking statements speak only as to the date hereof. All such forward-looking statements and any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the statements contained herein or referred to in this section and any other cautionary statements that may accompany such forward-looking statements. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, we disclaim any intention or obligation to update publicly or revise such statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
There may also be other risks and uncertainties that we are unable to predict at this time or that we do not now expect to have a material adverse impact on our business.

GLOSSARY
In this Quarterly Report, the following abbreviation and terms are used:
Bbl. Stock tank barrel, or 42 U.S. gallons liquid volume, used in this report in reference to crude, condensate or natural gas liquids.
Bcf. Billion cubic feet of natural gas.
Bcfe. Billion cubic feet equivalent, determined using the ratio of six Mcf of natural gas to one barrel of crude oil or condensate.
BLM. The Bureau of Land Management of the United States Department of the Interior.
BOE. One barrel of crude oil equivalent, determined using the ratio of six Mcf of natural gas to one barrel of crude oil, condensate or natural gas liquids.
BOE/d. Barrels of oil equivalent per day.
BO/d. Barrel of oil per day.
BTU or British Thermal Unit. The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound mass of water by 28.5 to 59.5 degrees Fahrenheit.
Completion. Installation of permanent equipment for production of oil or natural gas.
Condensate. A mixture of hydrocarbons that exists in the gaseous phase at original reservoir temperature and pressure but that, when produced, is in the liquid phase at surface pressure and temperature.
Development well. A well drilled within the proved area of a natural gas or oil reservoir to the depth of a stratigraphic horizon known to be productive.
Drilling locations. Total gross locations specifically quantified by management to be included in our multi-year drilling activities on existing acreage. Our actual drilling activities may change depending on the availability of capital, regulatory approvals, seasonal restrictions, oil and natural gas prices, costs, drilling results and other factors.
Dry well or dry hole. A well found to be incapable of producing either oil or gas in sufficient quantities to justify completion as an oil or gas well.
Exploratory well. A well drilled to find a new field or to find a new reservoir. Generally, an exploratory well in any well that is not a development well, an extension well, a service well or a stratigraphic well.
FERC. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.
Field. An area consisting of either a single reservoir or multiple reservoirs all grouped on or related to the same geological structural feature and/or stratigraphic condition.
Formation. An identifiable layer of subsurface rocks named after its geographical location and dominant rock type.
Gross acres, gross wells, or gross reserves. A well, acre or reserve in which we own a working interest, reported at the 100% or 8/8ths level. For example, the number of gross wells is the total number of wells in which we own a working interest.
Lease. A legal contract that specifies the terms of the business relationship between an energy company and a landowner or mineral rights holder on a particular tract of land.
Leasehold. Mineral rights leased in a certain area to form a project area.
MBBLs. One thousand barrels of crude oil or other liquid hydrocarbons.
4
MBOE. One thousand barrels of crude oil equivalent, determined using the ratio of six Mcf of natural gas to one Bbl of crude oil, condensate or natural gas liquids.
Mcf. One thousand cubic feet of natural gas.
Mcfe. One thousand cubic feet equivalent, determined using the ratio of six Mcf of natural gas to one Bbl of crude oil, condensate or natural gas liquids.
MMbtu. One million British Thermal Units.
MMcf. One million cubic feet of natural gas.
Net acres or net wells. The sum of fractional ownership working interests in gross acres or gross wells. The number of net acres or wells is the sum of the fractional working interests owned in gross acres or wells expressed as whole numbers and fractions of whole numbers.
NGL. Natural gas liquids, or liquid hydrocarbons found as a by-product of natural gas.
Overriding royalty interest. Is similar to a basic royalty interest except that it is created out of the working interest. For example, an operator possesses a standard lease providing for a basic royalty to the lessor or mineral rights owner of 1/8 of 8/8. This then entitles the operator to retain 7/8 of the total oil and natural gas produced. The 7/8 in this case is the 100% working interest the operator owns. This operator may assign his working interest to another operator subject to a retained 1/8 overriding royalty. This would then result in a basic royalty of 1/8, an overriding royalty of 1/8 and a working interest of 3/4. Overriding royalty interest owners have no financial or other obligation or responsibility for developing and operating the property. The only expenses borne by the overriding royalty owner are a share of the production or severance taxes and sometimes costs incurred to make the oil or gas salable.
Plugging and abandonment. Refers to the sealing off of fluids in the strata penetrated by a well so that the fluids from one stratum will not escape into another or to the surface. Regulations of all states require plugging of abandoned wells.
Production. Natural resources, such as oil or gas, flowed or pumped out of the ground.
Productive well. A producing well or a well that is mechanically capable of production.
Proved developed oil and natural gas reserves. Proved developed oil and natural gas reserves are proved reserves that can be expected to be recovered (i) through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods or in which the cost of the required equipment is relatively minor compared to the cost of a new well; and (ii) through installed extraction equipment and infrastructure operational at the time of the reserves estimate if the extraction is by means not involving a well.
Proved reserves. Those quantities of oil and natural gas, which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible - from a given date forward, from known reservoirs, under existing economic conditions, operating methods, and government regulations - prior to the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain, regardless of whether deterministic or probabilistic methods are used for the estimation. The project to extract the hydrocarbons must have commenced or the operator must be reasonably certain that it will commence the project within a reasonable time.
Proved undeveloped reserves. Proved undeveloped oil and natural gas reserves are proved reserves that are expected to be recovered from new wells on undrilled acreage, or from existing wells where a relatively major expenditure is required for recompletion.
Project. A targeted development area where it is probable that commercial oil and/or natural gas can be produced from new wells.
Prospect. A specific geographic area which, based on supporting geological, geophysical or other data and also preliminary economic analysis using reasonably anticipated prices and costs, is deemed to have potential for the discovery of commercial hydrocarbons.
Recompletion. The process of re-entering an existing well bore that is either producing or not producing and modifying the existing completion and/or completing new reservoirs in an attempt to establish new production or increase or re-activate existing production.
5
Reserves. Estimated remaining quantities of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids anticipated to be economically producible, as of a given date, by application of development projects to known accumulations. In addition, there must exist, or there must be a reasonable expectation that there will exist, the legal right to produce or a revenue interest in the production, installed means of delivering oil and gas or related substances to market, and all permits and financing required to implement the project.
Reservoir. A subsurface formation containing a natural accumulation of producible natural gas and/or oil that is naturally trapped by impermeable rock or other geologic structures or water barriers and is individual and separate from other reservoirs.
Secondary Recovery. A recovery process that uses mechanisms other than the natural pressure or fluid drive of the reservoir, such as gas injection or water flooding, to produce residual oil and natural gas remaining after the primary recovery phase.
Shut-in. A well suspended from production or injection but not abandoned.
Standardized measure. The present value of estimated future cash flows from proved oil and natural gas reserves, less future development, abandonment, production and income tax expenses, discounted at 10% per annum to reflect timing of future cash flows and using the same pricing assumptions as were used to calculate PV-10. Standardized measure differs from PV-10 because standardized measure includes the effect of future income taxes.
Successful. A well is determined to be successful if it is producing oil or natural gas in paying quantities.
Undeveloped acreage. Leased acreage on which wells have not been drilled or completed to a point that would permit the production of economic quantities of oil or natural gas regardless of whether such acreage contains proved reserves.
Water-flood. A method of secondary recovery in which water is injected into the reservoir formation to maintain or increase reservoir pressure and displace residual oil and enhance hydrocarbon recovery.
Working interest. The operating interest that gives the lessees/owners the right to drill, produce and conduct operating activities on the property, and to receive a share of the production revenue, subject to all royalties, overriding royalties and other burdens, all development costs, and all risks in connection therewith.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION
Lilis Energy, Inc. (“Lilis” or the “Company”) is an independent oil and natural gas exploration and production company focused on the Delaware Basin in Winkler, Loving, and Reeves Counties, Texas and Lea County, New Mexico.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Principles of Consolidation and Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, namely Brushy Resources, Inc. ("Brushy Resources"), ImPetro Operating, LLC, ImPetro Resources, LLC, Lilis Operating Company, LLC, and Hurricane Resources LLC. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments) which are, in our opinion, necessary for a fair presentation of the information as of and for the periods presented. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all disclosures required under GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our annual report on Form 10–K for the twelve months ended December 31, 2017, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on March 9, 2018 (the “Annual Report”).
Use of Estimates
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP which requires the Company to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities; disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period; and the quantities and values of proved oil, natural gas and natural gas liquid (“NGL”) reserves used in calculating depletion and assessing impairment of its oil and natural gas properties. The most significant estimates pertain to the evaluation of unproved properties for impairment, proved oil and natural gas reserves and related cash flow estimates used in the depletion and impairment of oil and natural gas properties; the timing and amount of transfers of our unevaluated properties into our amortizable full cost pool; the fair value of embedded derivatives and commodity derivative contracts, accrued oil and natural gas revenues and expenses valuation of options and warrants, inducement transactions and common stock; and the allocation of general administrative expenses. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period financial statements to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on the Company’s previously reported results of operations. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the income from operator’s overhead recovery of approximately $0.27 million and $0.33 million, respectively, have been reclassified from revenue to operating expense as an offset against general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new accounting standard, Accounting Standards Codification, ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all the related amendments (the “New Revenue Standard”) using the modified retrospective method. In accordance with the modified retrospective method, comparative information is not restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. The cumulative effect of initially adopting the New Revenue Standard, if any, is recorded as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The Company’s revenue from customers is derived from production and sales of crude oil, natural gas and NGLs and recognized when control is transferred to the customer. As operator, the Company may market production on behalf of joint interest partners and various royalty owners. Under the terms of our joint operating agreements, the Company does not take control of the production attributable to our joint interest partners and the various royalty owners. Consequently, the Company recognizes revenues only for its share of the
13
production. In accordance with the New Revenue Standard requirements, the impact of adoption on our condensed consolidated statements of operations and condensed consolidated balance sheets was as follows:

As shown in this comparison table, there is no impact on the net loss from the New Revenue Standard adoption and, therefore, no adjustment to the opening balance of accumulated deficit. Prior to the adoption of the New Revenue Standard, the revenue line included the value of our natural gas gatherer’s contractual volume retainage fee, with an offsetting cost included in the gathering, processing and marketing costs line. In accordance with the New Revenue Standard, the Company will only recognize revenues for its share of the production, resulting in the removal of the retainage fee approximating $26,000 and $91,000 from both revenues and operating expenses during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively.
On July 13, 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a two-part ASU 2017-11, (Part I) Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features, (Part II) Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception (ASU 2017-11). Part I of ASU 2017-11 simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with down round features by requiring companies to disregard the down round feature when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to its own stock, for purposes of determining liability or equity classification. Companies that provide earnings per share (EPS) data will adjust their basic EPS calculation for the effect of the feature when triggered (that is, when the exercise price of the related equity-linked financial instrument is adjusted downward because of the down round feature) and will also recognize the effect of the trigger within equity. Part II of ASU 2017-11 is not applicable to the Company since it addresses concerns relating to an indefinite deferral available to private companies with mandatorily redeemable financial instruments and certain noncontrolling interests. The provisions of ASU 2017-11 related to down rounds are effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted for all organizations. The Company elected to adopt ASU 2017-11 on January 1, 2018. The Company’s SOS Warrant Liability (as described in Note 6) was accounted for as a derivative instrument solely because of its down round feature. Any outstanding SOS Warrants as of the date of adoption were reclassified to equity and the Company will no longer recognize any gain or loss based on the fair value of the SOS Warrants. No other derivatives instruments were affected by the adoption of ASU 2017-11.
On January 5, 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01 Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business (ASU 2017-01), which clarifies the definition of a business to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. ASU 2017-01 introduces a screen for determining when assets acquired are not a business and clarifies that a business must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that contribute to an output to be considered a business. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company adopted ASU 2017-01 on January 1, 2018. On March 15, 2018, the Company completed an acquisition of proved and unproved properties from OneEnergy Partners, LLC (“OEP”) (See Note 5-Acquisitions and Divestitures). As a result of the adoption of ASU 2017-01, the Company accounted for the acquisition as an asset purchase instead of a business combination. As a result, acquisition costs of approximately $1.1 million were capitalized as part of the acquisition and the purchase price was allocated to unproved and proved properties based on relative fair value.
14
On January 1, 2018, the Company retroactively adopted ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force).” This ASU requires the statements of cash flows to present the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents are now included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning of period and end of period amounts presented on the statements of cash flows. The retrospective application of this new accounting guidance resulted in a decrease of $0.6 million in “restricted cash” in Cash Flows from Investing Activities, an increase of $0.6 million in “Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash, beginning of the period,” and an increase of $0.6 million in “Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash, end of period” in the Company's accompanying condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, from what was previously presented in our Quarterly Report on Form 10–Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2017. The $0.6 million in restricted cash was refunded to the Company during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”). The ASUs listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on its consolidated financial position and/or results of operations.
On July 30, 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, which provides entities with an additional (and optional) transition method to adopt the new leases standard. Under this new transition method, an entity initially applies the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. ASU 2018-11 also provides lessors with a practical expedient, by class of underlying asset, to not separate non-lease components from the associated lease component and, instead, to account for those components as a single component if the non-lease components otherwise would be accounted for under Topic 606 and both the timing and pattern of transfer of the non-lease component(s) and associated lease component are the same, and the lease component, if accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease. If the non-lease component or components associated with the lease component are the predominant component of the combined component, an entity is required to account for the combined component in accordance with Topic 606. Otherwise, the entity must account for the combined component as an operating lease in accordance with Topic 842. The Company expects to adopt the new lease standard on January 1, 2019 using the optional transition method.
On June 20, 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which supersedes most of the prior accounting guidance on nonemployee share-based payments, and instead aligns it with existing guidance on employee share-based payments in Topic 718. As a result, nonemployee share-based payment transactions will be measured by estimating the fair value of the equity instruments that an entity is obligated to issue and the measurement date will be consistent with the measurement date for employee share-based payment awards (i.e., grant date for equity-classified awards). Probability is to be considered on nonemployee awards with performance conditions. The classification will continue to be subject to the requirements of Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation, although cost recognition of nonemployee awards will remain unchanged (i.e., as if paid in cash). The ASU provides certain accounting alternatives to private companies, including the use of the calculated value method and a one-time option to apply intrinsic value to liability-classified awards. The amendments become effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that fiscal year. For all other entities, the ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than an entity’s adoption date of Topic 606. The Company elected to early adopt the ASC 2018-07 during the quarter ended September 30, 2018. As a result, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company recognized $0.5 million and $2.4 million of non-employee share-based compensation, respectively.
On February 25, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (ASU 2016-02), which requires companies to recognize the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by long-term leases of assets on the balance sheet. The standard will be effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with earlier application permitted. The Company plans on adopting this guidance on January 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective approach. Oil and natural gas leases are scoped out of ASU 2016-02. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. As a part of the assessment work to-date, the Company has engaged an external consulting firm and is evaluating agreements under this ASU as well as assessing the completeness of the lease population. While the Company cannot currently estimate the quantitative effect that ASU 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements, the adoption will increase asset and liability balances on the consolidated balance sheets due to the required recognition of right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities. The quantitative effect is also dependent on active leases at the time of adoption. In addition, the Company is in the process of implementing new lease accounting software to properly account for the leases upon adoption.

NOTE 3 – REVENUE
Revenue is recognized when control passes to the purchaser which generally occurs when production is transferred to the purchaser. The Company measures revenue as the amount of consideration it expects to receive in exchange for the commodities transferred. All of the Company’s revenues from contracts with customers represent products transferred at a point in time as control is transferred to the customer.
The Company records revenue based on consideration specified in its contracts with its customers. The amounts collected on behalf of third parties are recorded in revenue payable. The Company recognizes revenue in the amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for transferring control of those goods to the customer. The contract consideration in the Company’s variable price contracts is typically allocated to specific performance obligations in the contract according to the price stated in the contract. Payment is generally received one or two months after the sale has occurred.
Crude oil revenues
Crude oil from our operated properties is produced and stored in field tanks. The Company recognizes crude oil revenue when control passes to the purchaser. The Company’s crude oil is currently sold under a single short-term contract. The purchaser’s commitment includes all quantities of crude oil from the leases that are covered by the contract, with no quantity-based restrictions or variable terms. Pricing is based on posted indexes for crude oil of similar quality, less a fees deduction that is subject to negotiation. As of the most recent contract amendments, the negotiable fees deduction is $5.25 per barrel from June 1, 2018 through July 31, 2018, then $5.15 per barrel from August 1, 2018 through February 28, 2019, continuing on a month-to-month basis thereafter unless renegotiated or canceled upon 30 days' notice. The posted index prices change monthly based on the average of daily index price points for each sales month.
Natural gas and NGL revenues
Natural gas is produced and transported via pipelines to gas processing facilities. NGLs are extracted from the natural gas at the processing facilities and processed natural gas and NGLs are marketed and sold separately on the Company’s behalf after processing. All of our operated natural gas production is sold under one of three natural gas contracts which are long-term in nature; however, one of these natural gas contracts includes 30-day cancellation provisions, and the Company therefore classifies such contract as short-term. The processor’s commitment to sell on the Company’s behalf includes all quantities of natural gas and NGLs produced from specific wellbores or dedicated acreage as defined in the contract, with no quantity-based restrictions or variable terms. The gas contracts are generally market based pricing less adjustments for transportation and processing fees. A portion of natural gas delivered to the processing plants is used as fuel at the processing plant without reimbursement. The Company recognizes revenue for natural gas and NGLs when control passes at the tailgate of the processing plant.
Gathering, processing and transportation
Natural gas must be transported to a gas processing plant facility for treatment and to extract NGLs, then the final residue gas and liquid products are marketed for sale to end users at the tailgate of the plant. As a result of these activities, the Company incurs costs that are contractually passed to it from the gatherer per customary industry practice. Such costs include fees for gathering the gas and moving it from wellhead to plant inlet, plant electricity usage, inlet compression, carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide treatments, processing tax, fuel usage, and marketing at the tailgate. Gathering, processing and transportation costs are presented as operating expenses in the Company's condensed consolidated statement of operations.
Imbalances
Natural gas imbalances occur when the Company sells more or less than its entitled ownership percentage of total natural gas production. Any amount received in excess of its share is treated as a liability. If the Company receives less than its entitled share, the underproduction is recorded as a receivable. The Company did not have any significant natural gas imbalance positions as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.
Contract balances and prior period performance obligations
The Company is entitled to payment from purchasers once its performance obligations have been satisfied upon delivery of the product, at which point payment is unconditional, and the Company records these invoiced amounts as accounts receivable in its condensed consolidated balance sheets.
17
To the extent actual volumes and prices of oil and natural gas are unavailable for a given reporting period because of timing or information not received from third parties, the expected sales volumes and prices for those properties are estimated and also recorded as accounts receivable in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. In this scenario, payment is unconditional, as the Company has satisfied its performance obligations through delivery of the relevant product. As a result, the Company has concluded that its product sales do not give rise to contract assets or liabilities under the New Revenue Standard.
The Company records revenue in the month production is delivered to the purchaser. However, settlement statements for certain oil, natural gas and NGL sales may not be received for 30 to 60 days after the date production is delivered, and as a result, the Company is required to estimate the amount of production that was delivered to the customer and the price that will be received for the sale of the product. Additionally, to the extent actual volumes and prices of oil, natural gas and NGLs are unavailable for a given reporting period because of timing or information not received from third party purchasers, the expected sales volumes and prices for those barrels of oil, cubic feet of gas and gallons of NGLs are also estimated.
The Company records the differences between its estimates and the actual amounts received for product sales in the month that payment is received from the purchaser. The Company has existing internal controls in place for its estimation process, and any identified differences between its revenue estimates and actual revenue received historically have not been significant.
Significant judgments
The Company engages in various types of transactions in which midstream entities process its gas and subsequently market resulting NGLs and residue gas to third-party customers on the Company's behalf per gas purchase contracts. These types of transactions require judgment to determine whether the Company is the principal or the agent in the contract and, as a result, whether revenues are recorded gross or net. The Company maintains control of the natural gas and NGLs during processing and consider itself the principal in these arrangements.
Practical expedients
A significant number of the Company's product sales are short-term in nature with contract terms of one year or less. For those contracts, the Company has utilized the practical expedient in the New Revenue Standard that exempts the Company from disclosure of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if the performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less.
For the Company's product sales that have contract terms greater than one year, the Company has utilized the practical expedient in the New Revenue Standard that states that it is not required to disclose the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if the variable consideration is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation. Under these sales contracts, each unit of product represents a separate performance obligation; therefore, future volumes are wholly unsatisfied and disclosure of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations is not required.
The following table disaggregates the Company's revenue by contract type (in thousands):
Three Months Ended September 30, 2018 | Short-term contracts | Long-term contracts | Total | ||||||||

Customer Credit Risk
Our principal exposure to credit risk is through receivables from the sale of our oil and natural gas production of approximately $11.5 million and $4.7 million at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, and through actual and accrued receivables from our joint interest partners of approximately $3.0 million and $2.6 million at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. We are subject to credit risk due to the concentration of our oil and natural gas receivables with our most significant customers. We do not require our customers to post collateral, and the inability of our significant customers to meet their obligations to us or their insolvency or liquidation may adversely affect our financial results.
Major Customers
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company's major customers as a percentage of total revenue consisted of the following:
Three Months Ended September 30, | Nine Months Ended September 30, | |||||||||||
2018 | 2017 | 2018 | 2017 | |||||||||
Texican Crude & Hydrocarbon, LLC | 80 | % | 86 | % | 84 | % | 83 | % | ||||
Lucid Energy Delaware, LLC | 17 | % | — | % | 12 | % | — | % | ||||
ETC Field Services LLC | 2 | % | 14 | % | 3 | % | 15 | % | ||||
Other below 10% | 1 | % | — | % | 1 | % | 2 | % | ||||
100 | % | 100 | % | 100 | % | 100 | % | |||||
Due to availability of other purchasers, we do not believe the loss of any single oil or natural gas customer would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
NOTE 4 - OIL AND NATURAL GAS PROPERTIES
The Company uses the full cost method of accounting for oil and natural gas operations. Under this method, costs related to the exploration, non-production related development and acquisition of oil and natural gas reserves are capitalized. Such costs include land acquisition costs, geological and geophysical expenses, carrying charges on non-producing properties, costs of drilling, developing and completing productive wells, and any other costs directly related to acquisition and exploration activities. Proceeds from property sales are generally applied as a credit against capitalized exploration and development costs, with no gain or loss recognized, unless such a sale would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and the proved reserves attributable to these costs. A significant alteration would typically involve a sale of 25% or more of proved reserves.
Depletion of exploration and development costs and depreciation of wells and tangible production assets is computed using the units-of-production method based upon estimated proved oil and natural gas reserves. Costs included in the depletion base to be amortized include (a) all proved capitalized costs including capitalized asset retirement costs net of estimated salvage values, less accumulated depletion, and (b) estimated future development cost to be incurred in developing proved reserves, that are not otherwise included in capitalized costs.
Under the full cost method of accounting, capitalized oil and natural gas property costs less accumulated depletion (net of deferred income taxes) may not exceed an amount equal to the sum of the present value, discounted at 10%, of estimated future net revenues from proved oil and natural gas reserves and the cost of unproved properties not subject to amortization (without regard to estimates of fair value), or estimated fair value, if lower, of unproved properties that are not subject to amortization. Should capitalized costs exceed this ceiling, an impairment expense is recognized. The present value of estimated future net cash flows was computed by applying a flat oil price to forecast revenues from estimated future production of proved oil and natural gas reserves as of period-end, less estimated future expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves (assuming the continuation of existing economic conditions), less any applicable future taxes. As of September 30, 2018, the ceiling value of the Company's reserves was calculated based upon SEC pricing of $63.43 per barrel for oil, $2.92 per MMBtu for natural gas and $60.26 per barrel for NGLs.
19
The Company accounts for its unproven long-lived assets in accordance with ASC Topic 360-10-05, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (ASC Topic 360-10-05). ASC Topic 360-10-05 requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. Costs associated with undeveloped acreage are excluded from the depletion base until it is determined whether proved reserves can be assigned to the properties. When proved reserves are assigned to such properties or one or more specific properties are deemed to be impaired, the cost of such properties is added to the full cost pool, which is subject to depletion.
The following table sets forth a summary of oil and natural gas property costs (net of divestitures) not being amortized at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017:
September 30, 2018 | December 31, 2017 | ||||||
(In thousands) | |||||||

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company completed an assessment of its inventory of unproved acreage for impairment which resulted in $11.1 million being transferred from unproved properties to proved properties in the full cost pool due to defective titles on certain leases. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, no impairment was recorded on the Company’s unproved oil and natural gas properties.
For the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion expense related to proved properties was $7.2 million and $1.4 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion expense related to proved properties was $17.6 million and $3.9 million, respectively.
NOTE 5 – ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES
Ameredev Leasehold Acreage Exchange Transaction
On August 1, 2018, the Company entered into a Leasehold Exchange Agreement (the "Ameredev Exchange Agreement") with Ameredev II, LLC (“Ameredev”) to exchange certain leasehold interests located in Lea County, New Mexico owned by the Company for certain leasehold interests owned by Ameredev also located in Lea County, New Mexico. The Ameredev Exchange Agreement closed on September 14, 2018, and required the Company pay Ameredev $12,500 for each net mineral acre received in excess of the Company’s net mineral acres traded to Ameredev. The Company’s payment for excess net mineral acres was $0.7 million. In connection with the Ameredev Exchange Agreement, the Company assumed the working interests in four wells pursuant to which Ameredev advanced the Company $6.5 million for the estimated costs of the four wells. At the closing of the exchange transaction, the Company refunded the $6.5 million to Ameredev. The four wells are located in Lea County, New Mexico and operated by the Company. The total proceeds paid to Ameredev was $7.2 million and was recorded as an adjustment to the full cost pool.
Felix Holdings Leasehold Acreage Exchange Transaction
On June 4, 2018, the Company entered into a Leasehold Exchange Agreement (the "Felix Exchange Agreement") with Felix Energy Holdings II, LLC (“Felix”) to exchange certain leasehold interest located in Loving and Winkler Counties in Texas owned by the Company for certain leasehold interest located in the same counties owned by Felix. The Agreement closed on August 14, 2018, with an effective date of May 1, 2018. In addition to the Felix leasehold interests, the Company acquired certain working interests in two wells operated by the Company in Winkler County, Texas. The Company paid Felix for the well costs
20
incurred by Felix to drill and complete the two wells, less any revenues paid to Felix. The final settlement was a payment of $0.4 million which was recorded as an adjustment to the full cost pool.
OEP Acquisition
On January 30, 2018, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase and Sale Agreement”) by and between the Company and OneEnergy Partners Operating, LLC (“OEP”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to purchase from OEP, and OEP agreed to sell to the Company, certain oil and natural gas properties and related assets for a purchase price of $70 million, subject to customary purchase price adjustments (the “OEP Acquisition”). The properties acquired by the Company pursuant to the Purchase and Sale Agreement consist of leasehold acreage in the Delaware Basin in Lea County, New Mexico. On March 15, 2018, the Company completed the OEP Acquisition whereby the Company paid $40 million in cash and issued 6,940,722 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at approximately $24.8 million for a total purchase price of approximately $64.9 million, before acquisition costs and customary purchase price adjustments. The value of the shares issued was determined using the closing price of the Company’s stock on the date of closing.
The OEP Acquisition was accounted for as an asset purchase of proved properties and unproved properties using relative fair value of the assets acquired. The proved producing properties were valued based on internal estimates of future production using strip pricing and the present value discounted at 10%. Unproved properties acquired were valued using a market approach.
The purchase price and the value of the assets acquired in the OEP Acquisition were as follows:
(in thousands, except per share amount) | |||
Cash | $ | 40,000 | |
Common stock issued (6,940,722 shares at $3.57) | 24,778 | ||
Transaction costs and purchase price adjustments | 1,074 | ||
Total purchase price | $ | 65,852 | |
Proved properties | $ | 4,168 | |
Unproved properties | 61,684 | ||
$ | 65,852 |
VPD Acquisition
On February 28, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of certain leasehold interests and other oil and gas assets in Loving and Winkler Counties, Texas from VPD Texas, L.P. ("VPD") for cash consideration of $10.6 million including $0.5 million of related acquisition costs (the "VPD Acquisition"). The VPD Acquisition was recorded at fair value which was the total cash consideration of approximately $11.1 million. VPD is an affiliate of Värde Partners, Inc. (“Värde”). Värde participated as lead lender in the Company’s Second Lien Loan (as defined below in Note 6) transaction in 2017 and as investor of the Company’s Series C Preferred Stock transaction in January 2018. As a result, the VPD Acquisition is considered a related party transaction. See Note 11 - Related Party Transactions.
In connection with the above VPD Acquisition and pursuant to Article XVI.3(b) of the Joint Operating Agreement dated February 28, 2018 (the “JOA”) entered into between VPD and ImPetro Operating, LLC (“Operator”), a subsidiary of the Company, the Company has committed to the following drilling commitments:
• | drill and complete two horizontal wells (“Initial Commitment Wells”) no later than December 31, 2018; and |

The Company has a one-time option to extend the deadline by an additional 75 days by providing written notice to VPD of such election on or before August 31, 2018, in the case of the Initial Commitment Wells, and August 31, 2019, in the case of the Subsequent Commitment Wells.
As of September 30, 2018, the Company has spud the first two Initial Commitment Wells and is on track to fulfill its obligations ahead of the December 31, 2018 deadline.

Anadarko Acquisition
On May 3, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of certain leasehold interests and other oil and gas assets in Loving and Winkler Counties, Texas from Anadarko for cash consideration of $7.1 million. The acquisition includes unproved leaseholds and non-consent proved producing oil and natural gas properties. As a result, the transaction is accounted for as an asset acquisition using the fair value of $7.1 million.
KEW Acquisition
As of December 31, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of unproved acreage in Winkler County, Texas from KEW Drilling, a Delaware limited partnership (“KEW”), for cash consideration of $48.9 million plus $0.8 million of related acquisition costs. The acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition using the relative fair value, which was the total cash consideration of approximately $49.7 million.
Divestitures
DJ Basin Properties Divestiture
On June 30, 2017, the Company entered into a purchase and sale agreement with Nanke Energy LLC for the divestiture of all of its oil and natural gas properties located in the Denver-Julesburg Basin (the “DJ Basin”) for consideration of $2 million, subject to customary post-closing purchase price adjustments. The sale of the Company’s DJ Basin assets did not significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves, and as such, all proceeds were recorded as adjustments to the Company’s full cost pool with no gain or loss recognized. The DJ Basin assets were sold to an entity owned by the Company’s former chief financial officer and, therefore, the divestiture is considered a related party transaction. See Note 10 - Related Party Transactions. The net proceeds of $1.08 million received on June 30, 2017 included an offset against $0.7 million of severance pay and $0.22 million of net sales adjustments due to the purchaser.
NOTE 6 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company measures the fair value of its financial assets on a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:
● | Level 1 - Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. |
● | Level 2 - Other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace. |
● | Level 3 - Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity. |
The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
The determination of the fair values of our derivative contracts incorporates various factors, which include not only the impact of our non-performance risk on our liabilities but also the credit standing of the counterparties involved. The Company utilizes counterparty rate of default values to assess the impact of non-performance risk when evaluating both our liabilities to, and receivables from, counterparties.

The Company’s derivative liability associated with the Second Lien Loan (as defined below) and warrants are measured using Level 3 inputs as follows:
Second Lien Term Loan Conversion Features: Under the terms of the Company’s second lien credit agreement, dated as of April 26, 2017, by and among the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company, as guarantors (the “Guarantors”), Wilmington Trust, National Association, as administrative agent (the “Agent”), and the lenders party thereto (the “Lenders”), including Värde ., as lead lender (the “Lead Lender”), as amended (the “Second Lien Credit Agreement”), the Lead Lender has the option to convert 70% of the principal amount of each tranche of the Second Lien Term Loan (the “Second Lien Loan”) under the Second Lien Credit Agreement, together with accrued paid-in-kind interest and the make-whole premium on such principal amount (together the “Conversion Sum”) into shares of common stock. The make-whole premium is the cash amount representing the excess of (a) the present value at such repayment, prepayment or acceleration date or the date the obligations otherwise become due and payable in full of (1) the sum of the principal amount repaid, prepaid or accelerated plus (2) the interest accruing on such principal amount from the date of such repayment, prepayment or acceleration through the maturity date (excluding accrued but unpaid paid-in-kind interest to the date of such repayment, prepayment or acceleration), such present value to be computed using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate plus 50 basis points discounted to the repayment, prepayment or acceleration date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months), over (b) the principal amount of the Second Lien Loan repaid, prepaid or accelerated. The number of shares of common stock issued will be based on the division of 70% of the Conversion Sum by the conversion price then in effect.
The Company also has the option to cause the Second Lien Loan to convert if, at the time of exercise of the Company’s conversion option, the closing price of the Company’s common stock has been at least 150% of the Conversion Price (as defined in Note 9) then in effect for at least 20 of the 30 immediately preceding trading days. The features of the make-whole premium in the Second Lien Loan require the conversion features to be recorded as embedded derivatives and bifurcated from its host contracts, the Second Lien Loan, and accounted for separately from the debt. The conversion features contained in the Second Lien Loan are recorded as a derivative liability at fair value each reporting period based upon values determined through the use of discounted lattice models of the Second Lien Loan under the Second Lien Credit Agreement. Change in fair value is accounted for in the condensed consolidated statement operations. As of September 30, 2018, the fair value of the embedded derivative liability was $53.2 million. As of December 31, 2017, the fair value of the embedded derivative under the Second Lien Credit Agreement associated with the Second Lien Loan conversion features was a liability of approximately $72.7 million. As a result, the Company recorded an unrealized gain of $10.6 million and an unrealized gain of $19.5 million on the change in fair value of derivative liabilities associated with the Second Lien Loan conversion features for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recorded an unrealized loss of $6.2 million and $3.5 million, respectively, on the change in fair value of derivative liabilities associated with the Second Lien Loan conversion features.
23
The fair value of the holder conversion features was determined using a binomial lattice model based on certain assumptions including (i) the Company’s stock price, (ii) risk-free rate, (iii) expected volatility, (iv) the Company’s implied credit rating, and (v) the implied credit yield of the Second Lien Loan.
SOS Warrant Liability. On June 23, 2016, in conjunction with the merger with Brushy Resources, the Company issued to SOS Investment LLC ("SOS") warrants to purchase up to 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $25.00 (the "SOS Warrants"). The SOS Warrants contain a price protection feature that will automatically reduce the exercise price if the Company enters into another agreement pursuant to which warrants are issued with a lower exercise price. As of December 31, 2017, the fair value of the SOS Warrant liability was approximately $0.2 million. As a result of the Company’s early adoption of ASU 2017-11, “Accounting for Financial Instruments with Down Round Features” on January 1, 2018, the $0.2 million on the SOS Warrants were reclassified from current liabilities to stockholders’ equity at January 1, 2018. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recorded an unrealized gain of approximately $0.3 million on the SOS Warrant liability.
NOTE 7 - ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS ("ARO")
The Company’s ARO represent the present value of the estimated cash flows expected to be incurred to plug, abandon and remediate producing properties, excluding salvage values, at the end of their productive lives in accordance with applicable laws. Revisions in estimated liabilities during the period relate primarily to changes in estimates of asset retirement costs. Revisions in estimated liabilities can also include, but are not limited to, revisions of estimated inflation rates, changes in property lives and expected timing of settlement.
The following table summarizes the changes in the Company’s ARO for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and year ended December 31, 2017:

Embedded Derivatives
As discussed in Note 6, the Second Lien Loan contains conversion features that are exercisable at the option of the Lead Lender or the Company. The conversion features have been identified as embedded derivatives which (i) contain economic characteristics that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract, the Second Lien Loan, and (ii) separate, stand-alone instruments with similar terms would qualify as derivative instruments. As such, the conversion features were bifurcated and accounted for separately from the Second Lien Loan. The conversion features are recorded at fair value for each reporting period with changes in fair value included in the Company's condensed consolidated statement of operations for each reporting period. As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the fair value of the derivative liability was $53.2 million and $72.7 million, respectively. As a result, the Company recognized an unrealized gain of $10.6 million and $19.5 million in its condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recognized unrealized gains of approximately $6.4 million and approximately $3.5 million, respectively, in its consolidated statement of operations.
Warrant Derivatives
As of September 30, 2017, the warrant derivatives included $0.2 million fair value of 200,000 underlying warrants which were issued to SOS as of June 23, 2016 at an exercise price of $25.00. The warrants contained a price protection feature that will automatically reduce the exercise price if the Company enters into another agreement pursuant to which warrants are issued with a lower exercise price. However, as of September 30, 2018, following the adoption of ASU 2017-11 on January 1, 2018, the outstanding balance of the SOS Warrants as of the date of adoption were reclassified to equity and the Company no longer recognizes any gain or loss based on the fair value of the SOS Warrants. The SOS Warrants expired on June 23, 2018. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recognized a net unrealized gain of approximately $0.01 million and $0.8 million, respectively, on the SOS Warrant and other warrants that were no longer classified as derivative instruments as of September 30, 2018.
Commodity Derivatives
To reduce the impact of fluctuations in oil and natural gas prices on the Company’s revenues and to protect the economics of property acquisitions, the Company periodically enters into derivative contracts with respect to a portion of its projected oil and natural gas production through various transactions that fix or modify the future prices to be realized. The derivative contracts may include fixed-for-floating price swaps (whereby, on the settlement date, the Company will receive or pay an amount based on the difference between a pre-determined fixed price and a variable market price for a notional quantity of production), put options (whereby the Company pays a cash premium in order to establish a fixed floor price for a notional quantity of production and, on the settlement date, receives the excess, if any, of the fixed price floor over a variable market price), and costless collars (whereby, on the settlement date, the Company receives the excess, if any, of a variable market price over a fixed floor price up
25
to a fixed ceiling price for a notional quantity of production).
These hedging activities, which are governed by the terms of our Second Lien Credit Agreement, are intended to support oil and natural gas prices at targeted levels and manage exposure to oil and natural gas price fluctuations. It is our policy to enter into derivative contracts only with counterparties that are creditworthy and competitive market makers. All of our derivatives are with non-lender counterparties and are designated as unsecured. Certain of our derivative counterparties may require the posting of cash collateral under certain conditions. It is never the Company’s intention to enter into derivative contracts for speculative trading purposes.
All of our derivatives are accounted for as mark-to-market activities. Under ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” these instruments are recorded on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value as either short-term or long-term assets or liabilities based on their anticipated settlement date. The Company nets derivative assets and liabilities by commodity for counterparties where a legal right to such offset exists. Changes in the derivatives’ fair values are recognized in current earnings since the Company has elected not to designate its current derivative contracts as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes.
The following table presents the Company’s derivative position for the production periods indicated as of September 30, 2018:

Second Lien Credit Agreement
On April 26, 2017, the Company entered into the Second Lien Credit Agreement comprised of convertible loans in an aggregate initial principal amount of up to $125 million available in two separate tranches. The first tranche consists of an $80 million term loan (the “Second Lien Loan”), which was fully drawn and funded on April 26, 2017. The second tranche consists of up to $45 million in delayed-draw term loans (the “Delayed Draw Term Loan” and, together with the Second Lien Loan to be funded on or before February 28, 2019, at the request of the Company, subject to certain conditions, in a single draw or in multiple draws. Each tranche of Second Lien Loans will bear interest at a rate of 8.25% per annum, compounded quarterly in arrears and payable only in-kind by increasing the principal amount of the loan by the amount of the interest due on each interest payment date.
On October 3, 2017, the Company, the Guarantors, the Agent and the Lenders entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Second Lien Credit Agreement (“Amendment No. 1 to the Second Lien Credit Agreement”). The purpose of Amendment No. 1 to the Second Lien Credit Agreement is to waive certain conditions precedent to the drawing of the Delayed Draw Term Loan under the Second Lien Credit Agreement and to provide for the funding of such Delayed Draw Term Loan upon the signing of the lease acquisition agreement with KEW. The Company borrowed the full $45.0 million available under the Delayed Draw Term Loan on October 4, 2017.
28
On October 19, 2017, the Company entered into a second amendment to the Second Lien Credit Agreement (“Amendment No. 2 to the Second Lien Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, the Guarantors, the Agent and the Lenders, including the Lead Lender. Amendment No. 2 to the Second Lien Credit Agreement permits the Company to incur the Incremental Bridge Loan under the First Lien Credit Agreement ("Bridge Loan").
On November 10, 2017, the Company entered into a third amendment to the Second Lien Credit Agreement (“Amendment No. 3 to the Second Lien Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, the Guarantors, the Agent and the Lenders, including the Lead Lender. Amendment No. 3 to the Second Lien Credit Agreement increased by $25.0 million the amount of delayed draw term loans available for borrowing under the Second Lien Credit Agreement. The additional $25.0 million of Delayed Draw Term Loan was drawn on November 10, 2017. The $25.0 million of proceeds from these loans may be used to fund oil and natural gas property acquisitions, subject to certain limitations, to fund drilling and completion costs or for other general corporate purposes.
On January 31, 2018, the Company entered into a fourth amendment to the Second Lien Credit Agreement with the Guarantors, the Lenders, including the Lead Lender, and the Agent (“Amendment No. 4 to the Second Lien Credit Agreement”).
The purpose of Amendment No. 4 to the Second Lien Credit Agreement was to, among other matters:
• | permit the Company to enter into the Riverstone First Lien Credit Agreement and incur the Riverstone First Lien Loans and related liens; |
• | permit the Company to issue the Series C Preferred Stock; and |
• | after the issuance of the Series C Preferred Stock, reduce from two to one the maximum number of members of the Board of Directors, the lenders under the Second Lien Credit Agreement will have the right to appoint following the conversion of the convertible loans under the Second Lien Credit Agreement. |
The Second Lien Loans are secured by second priority liens on substantially all of the Company’s and the Guarantors’ assets, including their oil and natural gas properties located in the Delaware Basin, and all of the obligations thereunder are unconditionally guaranteed by each of the Guarantors. The Second Lien Loans mature on April 26, 2021. The Second Lien Loans are subject to mandatory prepayment with the net proceeds of certain asset sales, casualty events and debt incurrences, subject to the right of the Company to reinvest the net proceeds of asset sales and casualty events within 180 days and, in the case of asset sales and casualty events, prepayment of the Bridge Loan. The Company may not voluntarily prepay the Second Lien Loans prior to March 31, 2019, except (a) in connection with a Change of Control (as defined in the Second Lien Credit Agreement) or (b) if the closing price of our common stock on the principal exchange on which it is traded has been equal to or greater than 110% of the Conversion Price (as defined below) for at least 20 of the 30 trading days immediately preceding the prepayment. The Company will be required to pay a make-whole premium in connection with any mandatory or voluntary prepayment of the Second Lien Loans.
Each tranche of the Second Lien Loans is separately convertible at any time, in full and not in part, at the option of the Lead Lender, as follows:
• | 70% of the principal amount of each tranche of Second Lien Loans, together with accrued and unpaid interest and the make-whole premium on such principal amount, will convert into a number of newly issued shares of common stock determined by dividing the total of such principal amount, accrued and unpaid interest and make-whole premium by $5.50 (subject to certain customary adjustments, the “Conversion Price”); and |
• | 30% of the principal amount of each tranche of Second Lien Loans, together with accrued and unpaid interest and the make-whole premium on such principal amount, will convert on a dollar for dollar basis into a new term loan (the “Take Back Loans”). |
The terms of the Take Back Loans will be substantially the same as the terms of the Second Lien Loans, except that the Take Back Loans will not be convertible and will bear interest payable in cash at a rate of LIBOR plus 9% (subject to a 1% LIBOR floor).
Additionally, the Company will have the option to convert the Second Lien Loans, in whole or in part, into shares of common stock at any time or from time to time if, at the time of exercise of the Company’s conversion option, the closing price of the Company's common stock on the principal exchange on which it is traded has been at least 150% of the Conversion Price then in effect for at least 20 of the 30 immediately preceding trading days. Conversion at the Company’s option will occur on the same terms as conversion at the Lenders' option.
The Second Lien Loans contains certain customary representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants relating to: maintenance of books and records, financial reporting and notification, compliance with laws;
29
maintenance of properties and insurance; limitations on incurrence of indebtedness, investments, dividends and other restricted payments, lease obligations, hedging and capital expenditures; and maintenance of a specified asset coverage ratio. The Second Lien Loans also provide for events of default, including failure to pay any principal or interest when due, failure to perform or observe covenants, cross-default on certain outstanding debt obligations, the failure of a Guarantor to comply with the provisions of its Guaranty, and bankruptcy or insolvency events, subject to certain specified cure periods. The amounts under the Second Lien Loans could be accelerated and be due and payable upon an event of default. As of September 30, 2018, the Company was in compliance with all restrictive covenants.
As discussed in Note 6, Fair Value of Financial Instruments, and Note 8, Derivatives, the Company separately accounts for the embedded conversion features of the Second Lien Loans as a derivative instrument in accordance with accounting guidance relating to recording embedded derivatives at fair value. The initial fair value of the embedded derivatives is recorded as a debt discount to the convertible Second Lien Loan. The debt discount is amortized over the term of the Second Lien Loans using effective interest rate. A portion of the Second Lien Loans were extinguished on October 10, 2018 (see Note 18, Subsequent Events).

NOTE 10 - LONG-TERM DEFERRED REVENUE LIABILITIES
SCM Water LLC's Option to Exercise Purchase of Salt Water Disposal Assets
In July 2018, the Company entered into a water gathering and disposal agreement with SCM Water, LLC ("SCM Water"). The water gathering project will complement the Company's existing water disposal infrastructure, and the Company has reserved the right to recycle its produced water. SCM Water will commence, upon receipt of regulatory approval, to build out new gathering and disposal infrastructure to all of the Company's current and future well locations in Lea County, New Mexico, and Winkler County, Texas. All future capital expenditures will be fully funded by SCM Water and will be designed to accommodate all water produced by the Company’s operations. The Company will act as contract operator of SCM Water’s salt water disposal wells ("SWD wells"). The Company has sold to SCM Water an option to acquire the Company’s existing water infrastructure, a system which is comprised of approximately 14 miles of pipeline and one SWD well for cash consideration upon closing, with additional payments based on reaching certain milestones. The Company is actively working on permitting additional SWD well locations and the option is expected to be exercised once permits are obtained. The Company anticipates that the majority of its water will eventually be disposed through the future SCM Water system at a competitive gathering rate under the agreement. Total cash consideration for the water gathering and disposal infrastructure is $20.0 million. On July 25, 2018, the Company received an upfront non-refundable payment of $10.0 million for the option to acquire its existing water infrastructure for the firm transportation and pricing for crude oil and $5.0 million for a prefunded drilling bonus. Additionally, the Company received $2.5 million on October 1, 2018 as a bonus for the grant of area right-of-way/easement and will receive an additional $2.5 million bonus upon hitting the target of 40,000 barrels per day of produced water. As of September 30, 2018, the Company accounted for the $17.5 million as deferred revenue liability until SCM Water exercise its option to acquire the Company's salt water disposal infrastructure.
Crude Oil Gathering Agreement and Option Agreement
On May 21, 2018, the Company entered into a crude oil gathering agreement and option agreement with Salt Creek Midstream, LLC (“SCM”). The crude oil gathering agreement (the “Gathering Agreement”) enables SCM to (i) design, engineer, and construct a gathering system which will provide gathering services for the Company’s crude oil and (ii) gather the Company’s crude oil on the gathering system in certain production areas located in Winkler and Loving Counties, Texas and Lea County, New Mexico. Construction of the gathering system has commenced and is expected to be completed in November 2018. The Gathering Agreement has a term of 12 years that automatically renews on a year to year basis until terminated by either party.
SCM and the Company also entered into an option agreement (the “Option Agreement”) whereby the Company granted an option to SCM to provide certain midstream services related to natural gas in Winkler and Loving Counties, Texas and Lea County, New Mexico, subject to the expiration and terms of the Company’s existing gas agreement. The Option Agreement has a term commencing May 21, 2018 and terminating January 1, 2027, pursuant to its one-time option. As consideration for this option, the Company received a one-time of payment $35.0 million which was recorded in long-term deferred revenue.
