Item 8.01 Other Events

On August 16, 2011, SandRidge Permian Trust (the “Trust”) completed its initial public offering of 34,500,000 units of beneficial interest in the Trust denominated as common units. In connection with the offering, SandRidge Energy, Inc. (“SandRidge”) conveyed to the Trust royalty interests in certain oil and natural gas properties located in Andrews County, Texas (the “Royalty Interests”) in exchange for 4,875,000 common units, 13,125,000 units of beneficial interest in the Trust denominated as subordinated units, and the net proceeds of the Trust’s initial public offering equal to $580.6 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions. The Royalty Interests entitle the Trust to a percentage of the proceeds received by SandRidge from the production of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids from currently producing wells and development wells to be drilled by SandRidge within an area of mutual interest.

Additionally, on November 14, 2011, SandRidge sold producing properties located on over 23,000 net acres in Gregg, Harrison, Rusk and Panola counties in Texas for $231.0 million (“East Texas Sale”). The transaction is subject to customary post-closing adjustments.

SandRidge is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K to provide certain pro forma financial information giving effect to the conveyance of the Royalty Interests to the Trust and the East Texas Sale as well as to certain adjustments to SandRidge’s historical results to give effect to SandRidge’s July 2010 acquisition of Arena Resources, Inc. (“Arena”). The pro forma financial information is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
