Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
On May 31, 2011, Maritech Resources, Inc. (“Maritech”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of TETRA Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”), finalized the sale of all of its interest in 21 federal offshore oil and gas leases in the Gulf of Mexico, one Louisiana offshore oil and gas lease, and six leases in state waters, which collectively represent approximately 79% of Maritech’s total proved reserves as of December 31, 2010. The sale was made pursuant to a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Tana Exploration Company LLC (“Tana”), a subsidiary of TRT Holdings, Inc. (“TRT”), which was previously signed on April 1, 2011. The assets (the “Assets”) sold include producing and non-producing wells and related reserves, production, contracts, platforms, equipment, gathering systems, production facilities, and other related properties. The sale has an effective date of January 1, 2011. The base purchase price for the Assets was $222.25 million, $11.1 million of which was prepaid in April 2011 at the time the Purchase and Sale Agreement was signed. At the closing of the sale, Maritech received $173.3 million cash, representing the base purchase price, less the amount prepaid and purchase price adjustments, including those adjustments reflecting post-effective date cash flows. The proceeds are subject to post-closing adjustments and do not reflect associated transaction expenses.
