Emergence from Voluntary Reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code | Emergence from Voluntary Reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code On February 1, 2017, the Predecessor and certain subsidiaries (such subsidiaries, together with the Predecessor, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions for relief (collectively, the “Bankruptcy Petitions” and, the cases commenced thereby, the “Chapter 11 Cases”) under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the Bankruptcy Court. The Chapter 11 Cases were administered under the caption “In re Vanguard Natural Resources, LLC, et al.” Prior to the filing of the Bankruptcy Petitions, on February 1, 2017, we entered into a restructuring support agreement (the “Initial RSA”). The Debtors entered into the Initial RSA with: (i) certain holders of the 7.875% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “Senior Notes due 2020”), constituting at the time of signing approximately 52% of such holders (the “Consenting 2020 Noteholders”); (ii) certain holders of the 8.375% Senior Notes due 2019 (the “Senior Notes due 2019,” and together with the Senior Notes due 2020, the “Senior Notes”), constituting at the time of signing approximately 10% of such holders (the “Consenting 2019 Noteholders” and, together with the Consenting 2020 Noteholders, the “Consenting Senior Noteholders”); and (iii) certain holders of the 7.0% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes due 2023 (the “Old Second Lien Notes” or “Senior Notes due 2023”), constituting at the time of signing approximately 92% of such holders (the “Consenting Second Lien Noteholders”). On June 6, 2017, certain lenders under the Predecessor’s Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of September 30, 2011 (as amended from time to time, the “Predecessor Credit Facility”), among them, Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent and Issuing Bank, (such lenders, the “Consenting RBL Lenders” and, together with the Consenting Senior Noteholders and Consenting Second Lien Noteholders, the “Restructuring Support Parties”), became parties to the amended Restructuring Support Agreement dated as of May 23, 2017. On July 18, 2017, the Bankruptcy Court entered the Order Confirming Debtors’ Modified Second Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization Under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (the “Confirmation Order”), which approved and confirmed the Debtors’ Modified Second Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization Under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (the “Final Plan”). The Final Plan provided for the reorganization of the Debtors as a going concern and significantly reduced the long-term debt and annual interest payments of the Successor. During the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases, we operated our business as debtors-in-possession in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Bankruptcy Court. The Debtors satisfied all conditions precedent under the Final Plan and emerged from bankruptcy on August 1, 2017. The Successor reorganized as a Delaware corporation named Vanguard Natural Resources, Inc. on the Effective Date. Pursuant to the Final Plan, each of the Predecessor’s equity securities outstanding immediately before the Effective Date (including any unvested restricted units held by employees or officers of the Debtor, or options and warrants to purchase such securities) have been cancelled and are of no further force or effect as of the Effective Date. Under the Final Plan, the Debtors’ new organizational documents became effective on the Effective Date. The Successor’s new organizational documents authorize the Successor to issue new equity, certain of which was issued to holders of allowed claims pursuant to the Final Plan on the Effective Date. In addition, on the Effective Date, the Successor entered into a registration rights agreement with certain equity holders. As of August 1, 2017, the Successor reserved for issuance 20.1 million outstanding shares of common stock, $0.001 par value. (“Common Stock”). Plan of Reorganization Upon emergence, pursuant to the terms of the Final Plan, the following significant transactions occurred: • The Predecessor transferred all of its membership interests in VNG, a Kentucky limited liability company and the Predecessor’s wholly owned first-tier subsidiary, to the Successor (formerly known as VNR Finance Corp.). VNG directly or indirectly owned all of the other subsidiaries of the Predecessor. As a result of the foregoing and certain other transactions, the Successor is no longer a subsidiary of the Predecessor and now owns all of the former subsidiaries of the Predecessor; • VNG, as borrower, entered into that certain Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of August 1, 2017 (the “Successor Credit Facility”), by and among VNG as borrower, Citibank, N.A. as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”) and Issuing Bank, and the lenders party thereto (the “Lenders”). Pursuant to the Successor Credit Facility, the lenders party thereto agreed to provide VNG with an $850.0 million exit senior secured reserve-based revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Loans”). The initial borrowing base available under the Successor Credit Facility as of the Effective Date was $850.0 million and the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans outstanding under the Successor Credit Facility as of the Effective Date was $730.0 million . The Successor Credit Facility also includes an additional $125.0 million senior secured term loan (the “Term Loan”). The holders of claims under the Predecessor Credit Facility received a full recovery, consisting of a cash pay down and their pro rata share of the Successor Credit Facility; The next borrowing base redetermination is scheduled for August of 2018; • The Successor issued approximately $80.7 million aggregate principal amount of new 9.0% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes due 2024 (the “New Notes” or “Senior Notes due 2024”) to certain eligible holders of their outstanding Old Second Lien Notes in full satisfaction of their claim of approximately $80.7 million related to the Old Second Lien Notes held by such holders; • The Predecessor’s Senior Notes were cancelled and the Consenting Senior Noteholders received their pro rata share of 3.38% (subject to dilution) of the Common Stock, in full and final satisfaction of their claims; • The Predecessor completed a rights offering backstopped by certain holders of our Senior Notes (the “Backstop Parties”) which generated $275.0 million of gross proceeds. The rights offering resulted in the issuance of Common Stock, representing approximately 89.92% of outstanding shares of Common Stock, to holders of claims arising under the Senior Notes and to the Backstop Parties; • The Successor entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with certain recipients of shares of its Common Stock distributed on the Effective Date that were parties to the Amended and Restated Backstop Commitment Agreement (including the Backstop Parties and certain of their affiliates and related funds), in accordance with the terms set forth in the Final Plan (collectively, the “Registration Rights Holders”). Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, we agreed to, among other things, file a registration statement with the SEC within 90 days of the Effective Date covering the offer and resale of “Registrable Securities” (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement); We filed the registration statement on October 30, 2017; • Additional shares of Common Stock, representing eleven percent of outstanding shares of Common Stock on a fully diluted basis, were authorized for issuance under the Vanguard Natural Resources, Inc. 2017 Management Incentive Plan (the “MIP”); • All outstanding Preferred Units (defined below) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date were cancelled and the holders thereof received their pro rata shares of (i) 3% of outstanding shares of Common Stock and (ii) Preferred Unit Warrants (as defined below), in full and final satisfaction of their interests; • All common equity of the Predecessor issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date were cancelled and the holders of the common equity received Common Unit Warrants (as defined below), in full and final satisfaction of their interests; • The Successor entered into a warrant agreement (the “Warrant Agreement”) with American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, as warrant agent, pursuant to which the Successor issued (i) to electing holders of the Predecessor’s (A) 7.875% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Units (“Series A Preferred Units”), (B) 7.625% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Units (“Series B Preferred Units”), and (C) 7.75% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Units (“Series C Preferred Units” and, together with the Series A Preferred Units and Series B Preferred Units, the “Preferred Units”), three and a half year warrants (the “Preferred Unit Warrants”), which will be exercisable to purchase up to 621,649 shares of the Common Stock as of the Effective Date; and (ii) to electing holders of the Predecessor’s common units representing limited liability company interests, three and a half year warrants (the “Common Unit Warrants” and, together with the Preferred Unit Warrants, the “Warrants”) which will be exercisable to purchase up to 640,876 shares of the Common Stock as of the Effective Date. The expiration date of the Warrants will be February 1, 2021. The strike price for the Preferred Unit Warrants is $44.25 , and the strike price for the Common Unit Warrants is $61.45 ; • By operation of the Final Plan and the Confirmation Order, the terms of the Predecessor’s board of directors expired as of the Effective Date. Our current board of directors (the “Board”) consists of seven members, including our and our Predecessor’s Chief Executive Officer. Our Chief Financial Officer was initially appointed as a director upon emergence and became our Chief Financial Officer as well, following the resignation of our Predecessor’s Chief Financial Officer; • Certain other priority or convenience class claims were paid in full in cash, reinstated or otherwise treated in a manner acceptable to the creditor claimholders; and • On the Effective Date, the Successor reserved for issuance 20,100,000 shares of Common Stock. Each of the foregoing percentages of equity in the Successor were as of August 1, 2017 and are subject to dilution from the exercise of the Warrants described above, the MIP discussed further in Note 10, “Stockholders’ Equity (Members’ Deficit),” and other future issuances of equity interests. See Note 5, “Debt,” and Note 10, “Stockholders’ Equity (Members’ Deficit),” for further information regarding the Predecessor and Successor’s debt and equity instruments. Listing on the OTCQX Market As a result of cancellation of the Predecessor’s units on the Effective Date, the units ceased to trade on the OTC Markets Group Inc.’s Pink marketplace. In September 2017, the Successor’s common stock was approved for trading on the OTCQX market under the symbol “VNRR.” Fresh-Start Accounting Upon the Company’s emergence from chapter 11 bankruptcy, the Company qualified for and applied fresh-start accounting in accordance with the provisions set forth in ASC 852 as (i) the Reorganization Value (as defined below) of the Company’s assets immediately prior to the date of confirmation was less than the post-petition liabilities and allowed claims, and (ii) the holders of the existing voting shares of the Predecessor entity received less than 50% of the voting shares of the emerging entity. Refer to Note 2 , “Emergence from Voluntary Reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code” for the terms of the Final Plan. Fresh-start accounting requires the Company to present its assets, liabilities, and equity as if it were a new entity upon emergence from bankruptcy. The new entity is referred to as “Successor” or “Successor Company.” However, the Company will continue to present financial information for any periods before application of fresh-start accounting for the Predecessor Company. The Predecessor and Successor companies lack comparability, as required in ASC Topic 205, Presentation of Financial Statements (ASC 205). ASC 205 states financial statements are required to be presented comparably from year to year, with any exceptions to comparability clearly disclosed. Therefore, “black-line” financial statements are presented to distinguish between the Predecessor and Successor companies. Adopting fresh-start accounting results in a new financial reporting entity with no beginning retained earnings or deficit as of the fresh-start reporting date. Upon the application of fresh-start accounting, the Company allocated the fair value of the Successor Company’s total assets (the “Reorganization Value”) to its individual assets based on their estimated fair values. The Reorganization Value is intended to represent the approximate amount a willing buyer would value the Company's assets immediately after the reorganization. Reorganization Value is derived from an estimate of Enterprise Value, or the fair value of the Company’s long-term debt and stockholders’ equity. The estimated Enterprise Value at the Effective Date was $1.425 billion as established in the Plan and approved by the bankruptcy court. The Enterprise Value was derived from an independent valuation using an asset based methodology of proved reserves, undeveloped acreage, and other financial information, considerations and projections, applying a combination of the income, cost and market approaches as of the Convenience Date. The Company’s principal assets are its oil and natural gas properties. Significant inputs used to determine the fair values of properties include estimates of: (i) reserves; (ii) future operating and development costs; (iii) future commodity prices; and (iv) a market-based weighted average cost of capital rate. These inputs require significant judgments and estimates by the Company’s management at the time of the valuation and are the most sensitive and subject to change. For purposes of estimating the fair value of the Company’s proved, probable and possible reserves, an income approach was used which estimated fair value based on the anticipated cash flows associated with the Company’s reserves, risked by reserve category and discounted using a weighted average cost of capital rate of 10.0% . The proved reserve locations were limited to wells expected to be drilled in the Company’s five -year development plan. Weighted average commodity prices utilized in the determination of the fair value of oil and natural gas properties were $67.20 per barrel of oil, $3.69 per million British thermal units (MMBtu) of natural gas and $24.59 per barrel of oil equivalent of natural gas liquids, after adjustment for transportation fees, quality differentials and regional price differentials. Base pricing was derived from an average of forward strip prices and analysts’ estimated prices. In estimating the fair value of the Company's unproved acreage that was not included in the valuation of probable and possible reserves, a market approach was used in which a review of recent transactions involving properties in the same geographical location indicated the fair value of the Company's unproved acreage from a market participant perspective. See further discussion below under “Fresh-Start Adjustments” for the specific assumptions used in the valuation of the Company's various other assets. Although the Company believes the assumptions and estimates used to develop Enterprise Value and Reorganization Value are reasonable and appropriate, different assumptions and estimates could materially impact the analysis and resulting conclusions. The assumptions used in estimating these values are inherently uncertain and require judgment. The following table reconciles the Company’s Enterprise Value to the estimated fair value of the Successor’s common stock as of July 31, 2017 (in thousands): July 31, 2017 Enterprise Value $ 1,425,000 Plus: Cash and cash equivalents 27,610 Less: Debt (943,392 ) Total stockholders' equity 509,217 Less: Fair value of warrants (11,734 ) Less: Fair value of non-controlling interest (2,274 ) Fair Value of Successor common stock $ 495,209 The following table reconciles the Company’s Debt as of July 31, 2017 (in thousands): July 31, 2017 Successor Credit Facility $ 730,000 Successor Term Loan 125,000 Senior Notes due 2024 80,722 Lease Financing Obligation, net of current portion 12,464 Current portion of Lease Financing Obligation 4,647 Total Fair value of debt 952,833 Successor Credit Facility fees and debt issuance costs (9,441 ) Total Debt $ 943,392 The following table reconciles the Company’s Enterprise Value to its Reorganization Value as of July 31, 2017 (in thousands): July 31, 2017 Enterprise Value $ 1,425,000 Plus: Cash and cash equivalents 27,610 Plus: Current liabilities, excluding current portion of Lease Financing Obligation 147,552 Plus: Other noncurrent liabilities 15,589 Plus: Long-term asset retirement obligation 136,769 Reorganization Value of Successor assets $ 1,752,520 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet The following illustrates the effects on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet due to the reorganization and fresh-start accounting adjustments.
