Callon Petroleum Company (the “Company”) is currently in the process of negotiating an amendment and restatement of its Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated March 11, 2014, among the Company, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and the lenders from time to time party thereto, which is anticipated to close on May 25, 2017 (the “Sixth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”).

We cannot assure you that the Sixth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement will be completed on its anticipated schedule or at all. If consummated, the terms of the Sixth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement will be disclosed upon completion.
