TABLE OF CONTENTS
Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
On
December 18, 2009, pursuant to a purchase and sale agreement
(the Purchase and Sale Agreement), previously announced
on December 3, 2009, among Denbury Onshore, LLC
(Onshore), a wholly owned subsidiary of Denbury Resources Inc. (NYSE symbol: DNR) (Denbury), and Wapiti Energy, LLC, Wapiti Operating, LLC and Wapiti Gathering, LLC (collectively, Wapiti), Onshore completed the acquisition of certain oil and gas assets in the Conroe Field.
The assets purchased in the transaction include leases, real property, personal property,
incidental rights, the Conroe Field Unit, shallow rights, the Wilcox wells, and reversionary
interests in the deep rights as set forth in the Purchase and Sale Agreement (collectively, the
Conroe Assets).
The Purchase and Sale Agreement provides for a purchase price of $430.7 million consisting of $256
million in cash and 11,620,000 shares of Denbury common stock, par value $.001 per share (the
Shares). The cash amount paid at closing was $269.8 million,
which reflects $15.6 million for amounts in escrow accounts reserved for plugging and abandonment
and adjustments to the purchase price.
Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
The information in the third paragraph of Item 2.01 above is incorporated by reference into this
Item 3.02. Upon the closing of the purchase of the Conroe Assets, Denbury issued 11,620,000 Shares
as partial consideration for the Conroe Assets. The issuance of the Shares qualifies as a
transaction by an issuer not involving any public offering pursuant to Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act of 1933 (the Securities Act). The issuance also qualifies for an exemption as a
limited offer and sale pursuant to Section 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act
(Regulation D), as the Company is issuing shares solely to accredited investors and has satisfied
the other conditions set forth or referenced in Section 506 of Regulation D.
Pursuant to a registration rights agreement dated December 18, 2009 and attached hereto as Exhibit
4.1, Denbury agreed to provide designated owners of Wapiti with resale registration rights covering
the 11,620,000 Shares.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
Sale of Class A Membership Interests in General Partner of Genesis Energy, L.P.
As previously announced by Genesis Energy, L.P. (AMEX symbol: GEL) (Genesis) on December 17,
2009, Denbury and Denbury Gathering & Marketing, Inc. (DGM), as selling parties, and Q Genesis
Acquisition, LLC (the Buyer), an affiliate of Quintana Capital Group L.P., entered into
a definitive purchase agreement whereby Buyer will acquire all of DGMs Class A membership
interests in Genesis Energy, LLC, (the Genesis GP), the general partner of Genesis for net
proceeds calculated as $100 million less adjustments currently estimated to be approximately $15
million (including those related to Genesis management incentive
compensation and other selling costs). Upon closing, Buyer
will control the Genesis GP. Post-closing, Denbury will continue to own approximately 10% of the
outstanding common units of Genesis.
The agreement contains termination rights for both parties, including the failure to close the
transaction by February 28, 2010, and is subject to certain closing conditions.
Amendment to Credit Agreement.
Effective December 16, 2009, Onshore entered into the Fourth Amendment, attached hereto as Exhibit
99.1 (the Amendment), to the Sixth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement among Onshore, Denbury
and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, and the financial institutions signatory
thereto dated as of September 14, 2006 (the Credit Agreement) to waive certain provisions of
the Credit Agreement related to, and in order to permit the acquisition of the Conroe Assets described in Item 2.01
hereof and the disposition of Barnett Shale assets previously announced by Denbury on December 3,
2009.
