On May 18, 2011, the Issuer and Dalea Partners entered into a First Amendment to the 2010 Dalea Credit Agreement to extend the maturity date of the 2010 Dalea Credit Agreement from June 28, 2011 to December 31, 2011 and to increase the interest rate from three-month LIBOR plus 2.50% per annum to three-month LIBOR plus 5.50% per annum.

On November 7, 2011, the Issuer and Dalea Partners entered into a Second Amendment to the 2010 Dalea Credit Agreement to extend the maturity date of the 2010 Dalea Credit Agreement date from December 31, 2011 to the earlier of (i) March 31, 2012 and (ii) two business days following the close of the sale of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries, Viking Geophysical Services, Ltd. and Viking International, in whole or in part.

On February 25, 2012 the Issuer entered into a non-binding letter of intent (the “Viking Letter of Intent”) to sell Viking International and Viking Geophysical Services, Ltd. (collectively with Viking International, “Viking”) to a consortium including Dalea Partners (or its affiliates) and funds advised by Abraaj Investment Management, Ltd. (“Abraaj”). It is anticipated that Mitchell, directly or indirectly, will own or control approximately 45% of the acquired entities.

On March 15, 2012, Issuer signed a stock purchase agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) to sell Viking to Dalea Partners for an aggregate purchase price of $164.0 million, consisting of $152.5 million in cash, subject to a net working capital adjustment, and a $11.5 million promissory note from Dalea Partners. The promissory note will be payable five years from the date of issuance or earlier upon the occurrence of certain specified events. Prior to closing, Dalea Partners expects to assign the Stock Purchase Agreement to a joint venture owned by Dalea Partners and funds advised by Abraaj. The sale of Viking is subject to the approval of regulatory authorities, the receipt of equity financing by the buyer and other customary closing conditions.

Contractually, the effective date of the sale of Viking will be April 1, 2012, regardless of when the actual closing occurs. The closing is anticipated to occur during the second quarter of 2012. The purchase price for Viking will be increased by the amount (if any) that the net working capital of Viking is greater than zero and will be decreased by the amount (if any) that the net working capital of Viking is less than zero.

In conjunction with the Stock Purchase Agreement, Dalea Partners agreed to extend the maturity of the 2010 Dalea Credit Agreement until the earlier of (i) June 30, 2012 or (ii) the later of (x) the closing of the sale of Viking or (y) two days after demand by Dalea Partners. Interest on the 2010 Dalea Credit Agreement will cease to accrue from April 1, 2012 until the closing date. If the closing does not occur, the abated interest will be reinstated. In connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement, Issuer, Viking International and Viking Geophysical will enter into a five-year master services agreement that will ensure that Issuer has continued access to Viking’s equipment and services at market prices.

On March 15, 2012, Issuer and its wholly owned subsidiaries, TAW and Thrace Basin Natural Gas (Turkiye) Corporation, (collectively, the “Borrowers”) entered into a $15.0 million credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with Dalea Partners to provide Issuer with additional liquidity for general corporate purposes until it completes the sale of Viking. If drawn, loans under the Credit Facility will accrue interest at a rate of three month LIBOR plus 5.5% per annum, to be adjusted monthly on the first day of each month. Borrowers will be required to pay all accrued interest in arrears on the last day of each month, and may prepay outstanding amounts at any time before maturity without penalty. If drawn, any outstanding borrowings must be repaid upon the earlier of (i) July 1, 2012 or (ii) the sale of Viking.
