Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On October 12, 2011, Concho Resources Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Seventh Amendment
(the “Seventh Amendment”) to its Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of July 31, 2008,
with the lenders party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Amended
and Restated Credit Agreement”).
The Seventh Amendment increases the aggregate limit on the Company’s permitted indebtedness
evidenced by unsecured senior notes from $1.9 billion to $2.5 billion and extends the deadline for
the Company to issue additional unsecured notes without any reduction in its borrowing base as a
result of the issuance of such notes from May 1, 2012 to November 1, 2012. After November 1, 2012,
any issuance of unsecured notes will result in a reduction in the Company’s borrowing base equal to
the lesser of (i) $300.00 for every $1,000.00 of unsecured senior notes issued by the Company or
(ii) such other amount, if any, as determined prior to such issuance by lenders holding at least
two-thirds of the outstanding credit exposure and unused commitments under the Amended and Restated
Credit Agreement.
In addition, the Seventh Amendment reaffirms the Company’s current borrowing base of $2.5
billion under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.
The foregoing description of the Seventh Amendment is a summary only and is qualified in its
entirety by reference to the complete text of the Seventh Amendment, a copy of which is attached as
Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
