Senior Revolving Credit Facility

On the Effective Date, the Company entered into a senior secured revolving credit agreement (the Senior Credit Agreement) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and certain other financial institutions party thereto, as lenders. The Senior Credit Agreement provides for a $1.5 billion senior secured reserve-based revolving credit facility with a current borrowing base of $650.0 million. The maturity date of the Senior Credit Agreement is July 28, 2021. The borrowing base will be redetermined semi-annually, with the lenders and the Company each having the right to one interim unscheduled redetermination between any two consecutive semi-annual redeterminations. The borrowing base takes into account the estimated value of the Company's oil and natural gas properties, proved reserves, total indebtedness, and other relevant factors consistent with customary oil and natural gas lending criteria. Amounts outstanding under the Senior Credit Agreement bear interest at specified margins over the base rate of 1.75% to 2.75% for ABR-based loans or at specified margins over LIBOR of 2.75% to 3.75% for Eurodollar-based loans. These margins fluctuate based on the Company's utilization of the facility. The Company may elect, at its option, to prepay any borrowings outstanding under the Senior Credit Agreement without premium or penalty (except with respect to any break funding payments which may be payable pursuant to the terms of the Senior Credit Agreement). Additionally, if the Company has outstanding borrowings or letters of credit or reimbursement obligations in respect of letters of credit and the Consolidated Cash Balance (as defined in the Senior Credit Agreement) exceeds $100.0 million as of the close of business on the most recently ended business day, the Company may also be required to make mandatory prepayments.

Amounts outstanding under the Senior Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain of the Company's direct and indirect subsidiaries and secured by a security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries.

The Senior Credit Agreement also contains certain financial covenants, including the maintenance of (i) a Total Net Indebtedness Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Senior Credit Agreement) not to exceed 4.75:1.00 initially, determined as of each four fiscal quarter periods and commencing with the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2016, stepping down to 4.50:1.00 and 4.00:1.00 on September 30, 2017 and March 31, 2019, respectively, and (ii) a Current Ratio (as defined in the Senior Credit Agreement) not to be less than 1.00:1.00. At June 30, 2017 (Successor), the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants under the Senior Credit Agreement.

The Senior Credit Agreement also contains certain events of default, including non-payment; breaches of representations and warranties; non-compliance with covenants or other agreements; cross-default to material indebtedness; judgments; change of control; and voluntary and involuntary bankruptcy.

At June 30, 2017 (Successor), under the effective borrowing base of $650.0 million, the Company had $153.0 million of indebtedness outstanding, approximately $6.4 million letters of credit outstanding and approximately $490.6 million of borrowing capacity available under the Senior Credit Agreement.

8.625% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes

On May 1, 2015 (Predecessor), the Company issued $700.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 8.625% senior secured second lien notes due 2020 (the 2020 Second Lien Notes) in a private offering. The 2020 Second Lien Notes were issued at par. The net proceeds from the sale of the 2020 Second Lien Notes were approximately $686.2 million (after deducting offering fees and expenses). The 2020 Second Lien Notes bore interest at a rate of 8.625% per annum, payable semi-annually on February 1 and August 1 of each year. In accordance with the Plan, the 2020 Second Lien Notes were unimpaired and reinstated upon the Company's emergence from chapter 11 bankruptcy.

On February 16, 2017 (Successor), the Company paid approximately $303.5 million for approximately $289.2 million principal amount of 2020 Second Lien Notes, a make-whole premium of $13.2 million plus accrued and unpaid interest of approximately $1.1 million to repurchase such notes pursuant to a tender offer and issued a redemption notice to redeem the remaining 2020 Second Lien Notes. On February 21, 2017 (Successor), the Company paid approximately $1.2 million for approximately $1.2 million of principal amount of 2020 Second Lien Notes, a make-whole premium of approximately $54,000 plus accrued and unpaid interest to repurchase such notes pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures of the tender offer. On March 20, 2017 (Successor), the Company paid approximately $432.0 million for $409.6 million aggregate principal amount of 2020 Second Lien Notes, a make-whole premium of $17.7 million and unpaid interest of approximately $4.8 million to redeem the remaining notes at a price of 104.313% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date. The repurchase and redemption of the 2020 Second Lien Notes was funded with proceeds from the issuance of $850.0 million in new 6.75% senior unsecured notes due 2025.

The Company recognized a loss on the extinguishment of debt, representing a $30.9 million loss on the repurchase for the tender premium paid and a $26.0 million loss on the write-off of the discount on the notes. The loss was recorded in "Gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt" on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

12.0% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes

On December 21, 2015 (Predecessor), the Company completed the issuance in a private placement of approximately $112.8 million aggregate principal amount of new 12.0% senior secured second lien notes due 2022 (the 2022 Second Lien Notes) in exchange for approximately $289.6 million principal amount of its then outstanding senior unsecured notes, consisting of $116.6 million principal amount of 9.75% senior notes due 2020, $137.7 million principal amount of 8.875% senior notes due 2021 and $35.3 million principal amount of 9.25% senior notes due 2022. At closing, the Predecessor Company paid all accrued and unpaid interest since the respective interest payment dates of the unsecured notes surrendered in the exchange. The Predecessor Company recorded the issuance of the 2022 Second Lien Notes at par.

Interest on the 2022 Second Lien Notes accrues at a rate of 12.0% per annum, payable semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year. The 2022 Second Lien Notes will mature on February 15, 2022. The 2022 Second Lien Notes are secured by second-priority liens on substantially all of the Company's, and certain subsidiaries of the Company (the Guarantors') assets to the extent such assets secure the Company's Senior Credit Agreement (the Collateral). Pursuant to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, dated December 21, 2015, the security interest in the Collateral securing the 2022 Second Lien Notes and the guarantees are contractually subordinated to liens that secure the Company's Senior Credit Agreement and certain other permitted indebtedness. Consequently, the 2022 Second Lien Notes and the guarantees are effectively subordinated to the Senior Credit Agreement and such other indebtedness to the extent of the value of the Collateral. In accordance with the terms of the Plan, the 2022 Second Lien Notes were unimpaired and reinstated upon the Company's emergence from chapter 11 bankruptcy.

As discussed in Note 3, "Fresh-start Accounting," on September 9, 2016, the Company adjusted the 2022 Second Lien Notes to fair value of $107.2 million by recording a discount of $5.7 million to be amortized over the remaining life of the 2022 Second Lien Notes, using the effective interest method.

In addition, on September 28, 2016, the Company, each of its guarantors and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, entered into a supplemental indenture (the 2022 Second Lien Note Supplemental Indenture) to the Indenture dated as of December 21, 2015 with respect to the Company's 2022 Second Lien Notes (the 2022 Second Lien Note Indenture). The 2022 Second Lien Note Supplemental Indenture amended the 2022 Second Lien Note Indenture to modify the incurrence of indebtedness, lien and restricted payments covenants. The 2022 Second Lien Note Supplemental Indenture became operative upon the consummation of the consent solicitation on September 30, 2016. The Company paid an aggregate consent fee of approximately $1.4 million to holders of the 2022 Second Lien Notes and recorded an additional discount of approximately $1.4 million.

The remaining unamortized discount was $6.3 million at June 30, 2017 (Successor).

6.75% Senior Notes

On February 16, 2017 (Successor), the Company issued $850.0 million aggregate principal amount of new 6.75% senior unsecured notes due 2025 (the 2025 Notes) in a private placement exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (Securities Act), Rule 144A and Regulation S, and applicable state securities laws. The 2025 Notes were issued at par and bear interest at a rate of 6.75% per annum, payable semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year, beginning on August 15, 2017. The 2025 Notes will mature on February 15, 2025. Proceeds from the private placement were approximately $833.4 million after deducting initial purchasers' discounts and commissions and offering expenses. The Company used a portion of the net proceeds from the private placement to fund the repurchase and redemption of the outstanding 2020 Second Lien Notes, as discussed above, and for general corporate purposes.

The 2025 Notes are governed by an Indenture, dated as of February 16, 2017 (the February 2017 Indenture) by and among the Company, the Guarantors and U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee, which contains affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of the Company and the Guarantors to incur indebtedness; purchase or redeem stock or subordinated indebtedness; make investments; create liens; enter into transactions with affiliates; sell assets; refinance certain indebtedness; merge with or into other companies or transfer substantially all of their assets; and, in certain circumstances, to pay dividends or make other distributions on stock. The February 2017 Indenture also contains customary events of default. Upon the occurrence of certain events of default, the Trustee or the holders of the 2025 Notes may declare all outstanding 2025 Notes to be due and payable immediately. The 2025 Notes are jointly and severally, fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Company's existing wholly-owned subsidiaries. Halcón, the issuer of the 2025 Notes, has no material independent assets or operations apart from the assets and operations of its subsidiaries.

In connection with the sale of the 2025 Notes, on February 16, 2017, the Company, the Guarantors and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, on behalf of itself and as representative of the initial purchasers, entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the 2017 Registration Rights Agreement) pursuant to which the Company agreed to, among other things, use reasonable best efforts to file a registration statement under the Securities Act and complete an exchange offer for the 2025 Notes within 365 days after closing. In the event the Company fails to comply with its obligations under the 2017 Registration Rights Agreement, it will be subject to penalties in the form of additional interest payable on the 2025 Notes.

At any time prior to February 15, 2020, the Company may redeem the 2025 Notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount plus a make-whole premium, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date. The 2025 Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part, on or after February 15, 2020 at redemption prices equal to the principal amount multiplied by the percentage set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest (if any) on the 2025 Notes redeemed during the twelve month period indicated beginning on February 15 of the years indicated below:

Year	Percentage
2020		105.063
2021		103.375
2022		101.688
2023 and thereafter		100.000

Additionally, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the 2025 Notes prior to February 15, 2020 for a redemption price of 106.75% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, utilizing net cash proceeds from certain equity offerings. In addition, upon a change of control of the Company, holders of the 2025 Notes will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part of their 2025 Notes for cash at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest.

Debt Issuance Costs

The Company capitalizes certain direct costs associated with the issuance of debt and amortizes such costs over the lives of the respective debt. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 (Successor), the Company capitalized approximately $16.6 million of debt issuance costs related to the 2025 Notes. As part of the Company's reorganization, all debt issuance costs related to the Company's Predecessor debt were extinguished. The debt issuance costs for the Successor Company's senior unsecured debt are presented in "Long-term debt, net" within total liabilities on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2017 (Successor).
