On March 17, 2015, RSP Permian, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and certain stockholders of the Company (the “Selling Stockholders”) entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Barclays Capital Inc. (the “Underwriter”) relating to the offer and sale (the “Offering”) of 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), by the Company and 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock by the Selling Stockholders at a price to the public of $25.80 per share ($25.65 per share net of underwriting discounts and commissions). Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company and the Selling Stockholders have granted the Underwriter a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 750,000 shares and 600,000 shares of Common Stock, respectively.
The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, agreements and obligations, closing conditions and termination provisions. The Company and the Selling Stockholders have agreed to indemnify the Underwriter against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and to contribute to payments the Underwriter may be required to make in the event of any such liabilities.
As more fully described under the caption “Underwriting” in the prospectus supplement, dated March 17, 2015, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 19, 2015, the Underwriter and certain of its affiliates have, from time to time, performed, and may in the future perform, various commercial and investment banking and financial advisory services for the Company and its affiliates, for which they received or may in the future receive customary fees and expenses.
The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Underwriting Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated in this Item 1.01 by reference.
