SECTION 2 — Financial Information

Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

As previously reported, on February 13, 2014, the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, GeoMet Operating Company, Inc. and GeoMet Gathering Company, LLC (collectively as a group, the “Sellers”), entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) to sell substantially all of the Sellers’ coalbed methane interests and other assets located in the Appalachian Basin in McDowell, Harrison, Wyoming, Raleigh, Barbour and Taylor Counties, West Virginia and Buchanan County, Virginia (the “Asset Sale”), which comprise substantially all of the Sellers’ remaining assets, to ARP Mountaineer Productions, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Buyer”) and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Atlas Resource Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, for a purchase price of $107 million, subject to various purchase price adjustments.

On May 12, 2014 (the “Closing Date”), the Company closed the Asset Sale for an adjusted purchase price of approximately $97.5, after customary purchase price adjustments of approximately $9.5 million primarily to account for net cash flows from the effective date of the Asset Sale, which is January 1, 2014, to the Closing Date. Immediately upon the closing of the Asset Sale, approximately $69.1 million of the net proceeds was used to repay outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement and $3.1 million was used to settle all of our remaining outstanding natural gas hedge positions.

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed February 18, 2014 and is incorporated herein by reference.
