Riverstone Purchase Agreements

 

The information contained Item 3 to the Amendment No. 1 is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Representations and Warranties

 

The Riverstone Purchase Agreements contain customary representations and warranties for transactions of this nature. Several of the representations and warranties of each of the Company, Talos Production and the Riverstone Sellers are qualified as to “materiality” and several of the representations and warranties of the Riverstone Sellers are qualified as to “Material Adverse Effect.”

 

Under the Riverstone Purchase Agreements, a “Material Adverse Effect” means an event, occurrence or circumstance that, individually or in the aggregate, results or would be reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect (a) on the ownership, assets, operations or financial condition of the Company Assets or the Company Businesses (as each is defined in the applicable Riverstone Purchase Agreement), taken as a whole, or (b) upon the ability of a Riverstone Seller to consummate the applicable Riverstone Acquisition; provided, however, that the Material Adverse Effect shall not include:

 

(i)            effects resulting from changes in commodity prices;

 

(ii)           natural decline in well performance;

 

(iii)          general changes in industry, economic or political conditions or financial markets;

 

(iv)          changes in condition or developments generally applicable to the oil and gas industry in any area or area where the applicable Company Assets are located or where the applicable Company Businesses are conducted;

 

(v)           failure to meet internal or external forecasts or estimates of revenues, earnings, expenses, asset development or other financial or economic metrics for any period (excluding the underlying cause of such failure);

 

19


 

SCHEDULE 13D

 

CUSIP No. 87484T 108

 

(vi)          acts of God, force majeure events and Casualty Losses (as defined in the applicable Riverstone Purchase Agreement);

(xiii)        performance of the applicable Riverstone Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby; and
