Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
On December 8, 2010, our wholly-owned subsidiary, RWG Energy, Inc., completed the sale to Milagro Producing, LLC, a privately owned company located in Houston, Texas, of all of our oil and natural gas properties and related assets located in the Boonsville and Newark East fields of Jack and Wise Counties, Texas. The effective date of the sale is October 1, 2010. The sale properties include all of our Bend Conglomerate shallow gas properties, a mature natural gas field, and all of our North Texas Barnett Shale properties, a developing field, including both producing properties and undeveloped leasehold. We received net cash proceeds at closing of $42.3 million after all closing adjustments.
Proved reserves from these properties accounted for approximately 26.4 billion cubic feet equivalent (Bcfe) of natural gas, natural gas liquids and oil, or an estimated 13% of our year-end 2009 proved reserves of 204 Bcfe. For the quarter ended June 30, 2010, our net production from the properties averaged 5,635 Mcfe per day, accounting for 10% of our aggregate field operating cash flow (defined as revenues less production expenses and severance taxes) during the quarter.
