(the "Purchaser"), a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings, and DevX Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("DevX"), the Purchaser made an offer to purchase, through a cash tender offer (the "Offer"), all of the outstanding shares of common stock of DevX ("Shares") for $7.32 per Share, net to the seller, without interest. The Offer expired at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Thursday, December 13, 2001. Based on information provided by the American Stock Transfer and Trust Company, the Depositary of the Offer, as of the expiration of the Offer, 12,283,728 Shares had been tendered and not withdrawn representing approximately 97% of the issued and outstanding Shares. Purchaser has accepted for purchase and payment all shares validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Offer. Comstock issued a press release announcing the acceptance of Shares, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit (a)(1) to the Schedule TO/A filed by Comstock, Holdings and Purchaser on December 17, 2001. On December 17, 2001, Comstock completed the acquisition of DevX by effecting a short- form merger under Section 253 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, whereby the Purchaser was merged with and into DevX, and each Share of DevX common stock not previously purchased in the Offer was converted into the right to receive $7.32 per Share in cash, without interest (subject to applicable dissenter's rights). DevX was the entity surviving the merger and is now an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Comstock. A copy of the Merger Agreement is filed as Exhibit (d)(1) to the Schedule TO filed by Comstock, Holdings and Purchaser on November 15, 2001. The total amount of funds required by Purchaser to consummate the Offer and the Merger was approximately $92.6 million. The funds used by Purchaser to effect these transactions were provided by Comstock to the Purchaser. Comstock obtained these funds from its new $350 million Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility being provided by TD Securities (USA) Inc. (the "Credit Facility"). Please see the disclosure under Item 5 of this Form 8-K for more information about the Credit Facility. Item 5. Other Events (A) As stated above, Comstock entered into a new $350 million Credit Facility on December 17, 2001. The Credit Facility is a three year revolving credit facility and has an initial borrowing base of $270 million. The Credit Facility was used to, among other purposes, refinance Comstock's existing bank debt and to finance the acquisition of the Shares. A copy of the Credit Agreement by and among Comstock, each lender from time to time party thereto, Toronto Dominion (Texas), Inc., as administrative agent, and Toronto-Dominion Bank, as Issuing Bank, dated as of December 17, 2001, is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1. 1 Indebtedness under the Credit Facility is secured by substantially all of Comstock's and its subsidiaries' assets. The subsidiaries are guarantors of the indebtedness. The Credit Facility will be subject to borrowing base availability, which will be redetermined semiannually based on the banks' estimates of the future net cash flows of the borrower's oil and gas properties. The borrowing base may be affected by the performance of the borrower's properties and changes in oil and gas prices. The determination of the borrowing base will be at the sole discretion of the administrative agent and the bank group. The revolving credit line under the Credit Facility will bear interest, based on the utilization of the borrowing base, at the option of Comstock at either (i) LIBOR plus 1.5% to 2.375% or (ii) the base rate plus 0.5% to 1.375%. The Credit Facility will mature on January 2, 2005 or such earlier date as Comstock may elect. The Credit Facility contains covenants that, among other things, restrict the payment of cash dividends, limit the amount of consolidated debt and limit the borrower's ability to make certain loans and investments. Financial covenants include the maintenance of a current ratio, maintenance of tangible net worth and maintenance of an interest coverage ratio. (B) On December 19 and 20, 2001, DevX repurchased approximately $49.8 million of the outstanding $50 million of DevX's 12.5% Senior Notes due in 2008 for 110% of the principal amount plus accrued interest.
