Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On November 2, 2020, Callon Petroleum Company, a Delaware
corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Exchange Agreement
(the “Exchange Agreement”) by and among the Company and certain
holders (the “Holders”) of the Company’s (i) 6.250% Senior Notes
Due 2023 (the “2023 Notes”), (ii) 6.125% Senior Notes Due 2024 (the
“2024 Notes”), (iii) 8.250% Senior Notes Due 2025 (the “2025
Notes”), and (iv) 6.375% Senior Notes Due 2026 (the “2026 Notes,”
and together with the 2023 Notes, 2024 Notes and 2025 Notes, the
“Senior Unsecured Notes”).
Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company has agreed to
exchange $286.0 million of aggregate principal amount of 2023
Notes, 2024 Notes, 2025 Notes and 2026 Notes held by the Holders
for $158.5 million aggregate principal amount of newly issued 9.00%
Second Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2025 (the “New Notes”) at
exchange ratios of $650, $575, $480 and $460 per $1,000 principal
amount of 2023 Notes, 2024 Notes, 2025 Notes and 2026 Notes,
respectively, tendered (the “Exchange Ratios”).
Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company has also agreed to
issue to the Holders approximately 1.16 million warrants
(“Warrants”) exercisable for shares of common stock, par value
$0.01, of the Company (the “Common Stock”). The New Notes will be
issued under the Company’s indenture (the “Original Indenture”),
dated as of September 30, 2020, among the Company and U.S. Bank
National Association, as trustee and collateral agent. Until the
fifth business day after the announcement of the debt exchange
(such date the “Holder Group Close Date”), the Holders and their
affiliates may elect to include in the exchange up to an additional
$104.0 million of Senior Unsecured Notes for New Notes at the
Exchange Ratios set forth above. In the event the aggregate
principal amount of Senior Unsecured Notes exchanged for New Notes
at Closing is greater than $286.0 million, the Company will
increase proportionally the number of Warrants to be issued to the
Holders up to a warrant eligibility cap of $375.3 million. The
maximum number of Warrants issuable to the Holders at Closing will
be approximately 1.76 million.
In connection with the issuance of the Warrants at Closing, the
Exchange Agreement provides that the Company will enter into a
Warrant Agreement with American Stock Transfer & Trust Company,
LLC, as warrant agent, which among other things, will authorize and
establish the terms of the Warrants, including an initial exercise
price per share of $5.59646634, subject to adjustment. The Warrants
will be exercisable until the date that is five years after the
date of the Closing. The Warrants will only be exercisable on a
cashless net exercise basis and will be subject to certain
anti-dilution adjustments.
In connection with the issuance of the Warrants at Closing, the
Exchange Agreement provides that the Holders have the option to
request the Company to, subject to certain exceptions, prepare and
file a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “Securities Act”) with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “Commission”) to permit the public resale of the
Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants within 90
days of the Original Indenture and to be declared effective by the
Commission as soon as reasonably practicable
thereafter.
Subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions set forth
in the Exchange Agreement, the transactions contemplated by the
Exchange Agreement are expected to close on the date that is five
business days after the Holder Group Close Date or such other date
as the parties thereto may mutually agree upon (the
“Closing”).
The New Notes and Warrants will be issued to the Holders pursuant
to an exemption from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereunder. The New
Notes and Warrants will not be registered under the Securities Act
or applicable state securities laws and may not be offered or sold
in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption
from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and
applicable state laws.
Evercore acted as financial advisor and Kirkland & Ellis LLP
acted as legal advisor to the Company for the debt
exchange.
