Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On August 28, 2013, we entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with IBEX Mineral Resources, LLC and Beehive Partners, LLC to purchase mineral rights underlying approximately 15,000 gross (12,500 net) acres in Midland County, Texas in the Permian Basin for a purchase price of $440.0 million, subject to certain adjustments. We are the operator of almost half of the acreage on which these mineral rights are located. The acquisition remains subject to completion of due diligence and satisfaction of other closing conditions. Assuming all closing conditions are satisfied or waived, we expect to close this acquisition by the end of September 2013.

The preceding summary of the Purchase Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 1.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

On September 3, 2013, we issued a press release announcing the signing of the Purchase Agreement and providing an operational update. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
