Item 8.01.Other Events
On June 1, 2005 Plains Exploration & Production Company (the “Company”, “our”, “we” or “us”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “previous report”) disclosing under Item 8.01 information with respect to the elimination of certain if its existing oil price swaps and collars. This Current Report on Form 8-K/A is being filed to correct a portion of the disclosure under Item 8.01 in the previous report. Item 8.01 of the previous report is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
On May 31, 2005 we completed the previously announced elimination of all of our existing 2006 oil price swaps and collars for approximately $293 million. The oil swaps involved 15,000 barrels of oil per day at average price of $25.28 and the collars involved 22,000 barrels of oil per day with a floor price of $25.00 and an average ceiling price of $34.76. The cash payments will reduce derivative liabilities on our balance sheet. The $146 million cash payment for the collars will be reflected as a financing cash outflow in our statement of cash flows and the $147 million cash payment for the swaps will be reflected as an operating cash outflow.
The disclosure under Items 2.01 and 9.01 in the previous report is not affected by this Current Report on Form 8-K/A and is incorporated herein by reference.
