(the "Company") (NYSE: SD) has closed its previously announced private offering of $1.25 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes due 2020 (the "Notes"). The Notes were issued at par and bear interest at a rate of 8.75% per annum. The Notes are secured on a second-lien priority basis and guaranteed by each of the Company's subsidiaries that guarantee the Company's revolving credit facility.

The Notes are not registered under the Securities Act, or any state securities laws and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.
This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of the Notes, in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
