B.            The Borrower has provided the necessary Engineering Report in order for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to complete the spring 2022 Scheduled Determination of the Borrowing Base and, after reviewing such Engineering Report, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders have recommended (i) reaffirming the Borrowing Base of $225,000,000, (ii) maintaining the Aggregate Commitments at $225,000,000, and (iii) confirming that the automatic monthly reduction in the Borrowing Base and the Aggregate Commitments that was implemented by the Fifth Amendment shall cease to apply.

D.            NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants herein contained, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

Section 1.               Defined Terms. Each capitalized term that is defined in the Credit Agreement, but that is not defined in this Amendment, shall have the meaning ascribed such term in the Credit Agreement, as modified hereby.

Amplify Energy Announces Successful Borrowing Base Redetermination

 

HOUSTON, June 21, 2022 — Amplify Energy Corp. (NYSE: AMPY) (“Amplify” or the “Company”) announced today that it completed its regularly scheduled semi-annual borrowing base redetermination and entered into an amendment to its credit agreement. The redetermination affirmed the borrowing base at $225 million. The next regularly scheduled borrowing base redetermination is expected to occur in November 2022.

 

As of May 31, 2022, Amplify had total net debt of $187 million, with $215 million outstanding under its credit facility and $28 million of cash on hand.

 

Martyn Willsher, Amplify’s President and Chief Executive Officer commented, “With today’s redetermination holding the borrowing base flat at $225 million, the Company is well positioned to continue improving its liquidity position and leverage profile. For the remainder of 2022, in addition to improving our balance sheet, we anticipate allocating additional capital to high-return workover and non-operated development projects to generate additional free cash flow and further drive stockholder value.”
