Form 8-K for ENERGY XXI (BERMUDA) LTD


24-Nov-2009

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement, Financial Statements and Exh


Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On November 20, 2009, Energy XXI (Bermuda) Limited (the "Company") executed a conditional Purchase and Sale Agreement (the "Agreement") to acquire certain Gulf of Mexico shelf oil and natural gas interests from MitEnergy Upstream LLC ("MitEnergy"), a subsidiary of Mitsui & Co., Ltd. (head-office: Tokyo, Japan, NASDAQ Symbol: MITSY, Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE) Symbol: 8031), for a headline cash consideration of $283 million.

The transaction consists mostly of the non-operated interests in the same group of properties the Company purchased from Pogo Producing Company in June 2007. The properties include 30 fields currently producing 8,000 net barrels of oil equivalent (BOE) per day, about 77 percent of which is oil and 80 percent of which is already operated by the Company. Upon restoration of volumes pending repair of third party pipelines damaged by hurricanes in 2008, net production is expected to reach 10,000 BOE per day. Offshore leases included in the purchase total nearly 33,000 net acres.

Concurrent with the signing of the Agreement, the Company purchased puts and put spreads that provide downside price protection averaging $73.46 per barrel on 6,500 barrels per day of oil production for 18 months, from January 2010 through June 2011.

The transaction is likely to be funded through a combination of new equity, cash on hand and bank debt. The Company has placed a five percent cash deposit into escrow under the terms of the Agreement.

The purchase is subject to customary closing conditions and adjustments, such as downward adjustments to the purchase price to reflect revenues generated between the effective date of July 1, 2009 and the closing, which is expected within 90 days. Assuming a yearend closing, actual funding requirements are estimated to be $263 million.
