|
| ||||
|
On December 16, 2014, Sabine Oil & Gas LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (Sabine O&G), and Forest Oil Corporation, a New York corporation, completed the combination of their respective businesses through a series of transactions whereby certain indirect equity holders of Sabine O&G contributed the equity interests in Sabine O&G to Forest Oil Corporation. In exchange for this contribution, the equity holders of Sabine O&G received shares of the Companys common stock and Series A senior non-voting equity equivalent preferred stock collectively representing approximately a 73.5% economic interest in the Company and 40% of the total voting power in the Company (the Combination). The Company anticipates changes in the results of operations since the corresponding period for the year ended December 31, 2013 due to the Combination. For the reasons set forth in Part III above, a reasonable estimate of results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2014 cannot currently be made due to pending finalization of the year-end audit. | ||||
