Magnum Hunter Resources Corporation Emerges from Chapter 11
Less than Five Months After Voluntarily Filing for Bankruptcy Protection
http://www.magnumhunterresources.com/PressRelease.html
Irving, TX – (Marketwired) May 9, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
Magnum Hunter Resources Corporation (OTC PINK: MHRC) and certain of
its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company" or "Magnum Hunter") announced today that its chapter 11 plan of reorganization,
which was confirmed by the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware on April 18, 2016, has gone effective.
As planned, Magnum Hunter successfully emerged from chapter 11
less than five months after voluntarily filing for bankruptcy
protection to consummate its prenegotiated plan of reorganization.
The Company completed a very effective balance-sheet restructuring
that de-leveraged substantially all of Magnum Hunter’s $1 billion of pre-bankruptcy funded indebtedness and converted 100% of its
post-filing debtor-in-possession (“DIP”) financing into equity
pursuant to a consensual debt-to-equity exchange.
Previously burdened by cumbersome long-term obligations and
declining commodity prices,
today Magnum Hunter emerges from bankruptcy with a significantly stronger balance sheet and the ability to focus on creating value
and achieving its long-term growth objectives. Most importantly,
the Company achieved a successful and expeditious restructuring
with minimal disruption to its employees, vendors, and operations.
Additionally, after successfully reaching a resolution of all claims
and controversies with Eureka Midstream Holdings,
LLC and certain of its affiliates,
the Company and Eureka will move forward with a stronger relationship post-emergence.
Currently the new Board of Directors is actively engaged in a search
for a permanent Chief Executive Officer.
In the interim, Joseph C. Daches, current Chief Financial Officer,
and Rick S. Farrell, current SVP Business Development / Land, will
serve as co-Chief Executive Officers.
“Magnum Hunter has worked successfully to fulfill the
prenegotiated restructuring support agreement milestones with
the objective of achieving the best possible solution for all of
our stakeholders.
Without the cooperation of our dedicated employees and the strength
of our relationships with royalty owners, vendors,
suppliers and capital providers,
this would not have been possible.
Under the direction of our new Board of Directors,
we look forward to growing our Company strategically and profitably,” said Daches and Farrell.
Court filings and other information related to the restructuring proceedings are available at a website administered by the
Company's claims agent, Prime Clerk, at
