(1) | Earnings for the year ended December 31, 2015, were insufficient to cover fixed charges by approximately $1.0 billion, primarily due to noncash impairment charges of approximately $854 million associated with oil and natural gas properties primarily related to a decline in commodity prices, changes in expected capital development and a decline in the Company’s estimates of proved reserves. Earnings for the period from December 17, 2013 through December 31, 2013, were insufficient to cover fixed charges by approximately $20 million, primarily due to approximately $16 million in costs associated with the LINN Energy transaction. Earnings for the year ended December 31, 2011, were insufficient to cover fixed charges by approximately $398 million, primarily due to pre-tax, noncash impairment charges of approximately $625 million associated with natural gas properties in east Texas related to a decline in natural gas prices. |
