Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 – Basis of Presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. Certain amounts in the prior year statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentations. The statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Transition Report Form 10-K for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2010.
Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, EnerJex Kansas, Inc., DD Energy, Inc., Black Sable Energy, LLC and Working Interest, LLC. All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

Note 3 – Fair Value Measurements
We hold certain financial assets which are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis in accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" ("ASC Topic 820-10"). ASC Topic 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). ASC Topic 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC Topic 820-10 are described below:
Level 1. Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that an entity has the ability to access. We believe our debt approximates fair value at September 30, 2011.
Level 2. Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. We consider the derivative liability to be Level 2. We determine the fair value of the derivative liability utilizing various inputs, including NYMEX price quotations and contract terms.
Level 3. Valuations based on inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
5
Our derivative instruments consist of variable to fixed price commodity swaps.

Note 4 - Asset Retirement Obligation
Our asset retirement obligations relate to the liabilities associated with the abandonment of oil wells. The amounts recognized are based on numerous estimates and assumptions, including future retirement costs, inflation rates and credit adjusted risk-free interest rates.

Note 5 - Derivative Instruments
We have entered into certain derivative or physical arrangements with respect to portions of our crude oil production to reduce our sensitivity to volatile commodity prices and/or to meet hedging requirements under our Credit Facility. We believe that these derivative arrangements, although not free of risk, allow us to achieve a more predictable cash flow and to reduce exposure to commodity price fluctuations. However, derivative arrangements limit the benefit of increases in the prices of crude oil. Moreover, our derivative arrangements apply only to a portion of our production.
We have an Intercreditor Agreement in place between us, our counterparty BP Corporation North America, Inc. ("BP"), and our agent Texas Capital Bank, N.A., which allows Texas Capital Bank to also act as agent for BP for the purpose of holding and enforcing any liens or security interests resulting from our derivative arrangements. Therefore, we are not required to post additional collateral, including cash.

Note 6 - Long-Term Debt
Senior Secured Credit Facility
On October 3, 2011, we entered into a new Senior Secured Reducing Revolving Line of Credit of up to $50,000,000 (the "Credit Facility") pursuant to an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with Texas Capital Bank, N.A. The Credit Facility was used to refinance amounts outstanding under the prior credit facility, and will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.
Borrowings under the Credit Facility are subject to a borrowing base limitation based on our current proved oil reserves and will be subject to semi-annual redeterminations. The borrowing base effective as of October 3, 2011 was determined to be $7,200,000.
6
The Credit Facility is secured by a first priority lien and security interest in the assets of the Borrowers. The Credit Facility has a term of four years, and all principal amounts, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, will be due and payable in full on October 3, 2015. The Credit Facility also provides for the issuance of letters-of-credit up to a $750,000 sub-limit under the borrowing base.
At the Company's option, loans under the Credit Facility will bear stated interest based on the Base Rate plus Base Rate Margin, or Floating Rate plus Floating Rate Margin (as those terms are defined in the Credit Agreement). The Base Rate will be, for any day, a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the higher of (a) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50% and (b) the Bank's prime rate. The Floating Rate shall mean, at Borrower's option, a per annum interest rate equal to (i) the Eurodollar Rate plus Eurodollar Margin, or (ii) the Base Rate plus Base Rate Margin (as those terms are defined in the Credit Agreement). Eurodollar borrowings may be for one, two, three, or six months, as selected by the Borrowers. The margins for all loans are based on a pricing grid ranging from 0.00% to 0.75% for the Base Rate Margin and 2.25% to 3.00% for the Floating Rate Margin based on the Company's Borrowing Base Utilization Percentage (as defined in the Credit Agreement). A commitment fee of 0.500% on the unused portion of the borrowing base will accrue, and be payable quarterly in arrears.
The Credit Facility includes usual and customary affirmative covenants for credit facilities of this type and size, as well as customary negative covenants, including, among others, limitations on liens, mergers, asset sales or dispositions, payments of dividends, incurrence of additional indebtedness, and investments. The Credit Facility requires that we, at the end of each fiscal quarter beginning with the quarter ending September 30, 2011, maintain a minimum current assets to current liabilities ratio of no less than 1.00 to 1.00, and maintain a ratio of senior funded debt to EBITDA no greater than 4.75:1.00 for the quarters ending September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2011, and no greater than 4.50:1.00 for the quarter ending March 31, 2012 and each fiscal quarter thereafter.
The Credit Facility establishes minimum volumes to be hedged of not less than 50% nor more than 85% of the proved developed producing reserves attributable to our interest in the borrowing base oil properties projected to be produced.
Other Long-Term Debt
We financed the purchase of vehicles through a bank. The notes are for four years and the weighted average interest is 7.2% per annum and vehicles collateralize these notes.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report contains forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, contained in this report, including statements regarding future events, our future financial performance, business strategy and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes to our financial statements included elsewhere in this report. In addition to historical financial information, the following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results and timing of selected events may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those discussed under ITEM 1A. Risk Factors and elsewhere in this report.
Overview
Our principal strategy is to acquire, develop, explore and produce domestic onshore oil properties. Our business activities are currently focused in Eastern Kansas and South Texas.
The Opportunity in Kansas
According to the Kansas Geological Survey, the State of Kansas has historically been one of the top 10 domestic oil producing regions in the United States. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, 40.5 million barrels and 39.5 million barrels of oil were produced in Kansas. Of the total barrels produced in Kansas in the calendar year ended December 31, 2010, 20 companies accounted for approximately 34% of the total production, with the remaining 66% produced by over 2,000 active producers.
In addition to significant historical oil production levels in the region, we believe that a confluence of the following factors in Eastern Kansas and the surrounding region make it an attractive area for oil development activities:
8
·
|
Numerous Acquisition Opportunities in Fragmented Markets. The exploration and production business in Eastern Kansas is highly fragmented and consists of many small operators that operate producing oil properties on relatively small budgets. Consequently, numerous acquisition opportunities with drilling and expansion potential exist in the area.
|
·
|
Opportunity to Enhance Operational Efficiency of Mature Leases. Many potential acquisition targets include significant opportunities for enhanced operational efficiencies and increased ultimate recoveries of oil through the application of modern engineering technologies, professional approaches to reservoir engineering and operations management, and the potential application of a number of enhanced oil recovery technologies.
|
·
|
Opportunity to Reduce Operating Costs per Barrel Through Economies of Scale. A significant portion of expenses at the field level are fixed (primarily labor and equipment). These costs are scalable, and lease operating expenses per barrel may be significantly reduced by increasing production in current areas of operation via the drilling of low risk development wells, acquisition of producing properties in close proximity to existing operations, and the application of modern enhanced oil recovery technologies.
|
·
|
Large Oil Reserves in Place and Relatively Low Exploration Risk. A majority of the oil reserves in Eastern Kansas are present at relatively shallow horizons (most at a depth less than 3,000 feet) and contain significant volumes of oil in place. These shallow reservoirs often lack a strong natural drive mechanism and ultimate recovery of oil in place can be significantly increased through the application of secondary recovery technologies. Secondary recovery operations generally involve higher operating costs on a per barrel basis as compared to primary recovery; however, exploration risk in the area is relatively low, which can more than offset higher operating costs.
|
The Opportunity in South Texas
Technological advances in the oil industry have made great strides over the last decade, especially in the area of completion technologies, mainly through horizontal drilling and artificial fracture stimulation. Multiple sizeable oil deposits were discovered in South Texas during past decades, but operators lacked the technology to produce economically from these reservoirs at the time of discovery. The availability of modern completion technologies coupled with the current commodity price environment provide an opportunity for operators to economically produce oil from reservoirs that were discovered in the past, yet never fully developed due to technology and economic constraints.
Recent Developments
The following is a brief description of our most significant corporate developments that occurred in the third quarter of 2011:
In July and August 2011, we drilled and cased three wells in our El Toro project in South Texas. Logs and core data indicate that these wells are similar to nearby producers and we believe these wells will be an economic success. Frenzied industry activity in South Texas due to the Eagleford Shale play has created significant delays in the procurement of oil field services. We are currently working with vendors to schedule stimulation treatments on the three new wells in the El Toro project, and we anticipate stimulating and beginning to produce these wells before the end of 2011. The Company owns a 40% working interest in these wells.
On August 11, 2011, we executed an option to purchase additional oil producing assets in Woodson County, Kansas, commonly identified as the "Nickletown Leasehold." The Nickletown Leasehold consists of up to 2,000 acres located adjacent to our Black Oaks Project, which produces oil from the Mississippian formation. We exercised this option on November 9, 2011. Pursuant to the terms of this agreement, we acquired a 90% working interest in 720 acres and we may acquire a 90% working interest in 1,280 additional adjacent acres upon fulfilling certain drilling milestones.
On October 3, 2011, we entered into a new four-year $50,000,000 Credit Facility with Texas Capital Bank, N.A. The Credit Facility was used to replace and refinance our previous credit facility that expired on October 3, 2011. The new Credit Facility resulted in a 16% increase in our borrowing base from $6.1 million to $7.1 million, and our current interest rate was reduced by 33% from 6% to 4%.
Net Production, Average Sales Price and Average Production and Lifting Costs
The table below sets forth our net oil production (net of all royalties, overriding royalties and production due to others) for the period ending September 30, 2011 and period ended September 30, 2010, the average sales prices, average production costs and direct lifting costs per unit of production.

Revenues
Oil revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were $4,728,198 compared to revenues of $3,097,216 in the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Oil revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2011 were $1,673,857 compared to revenues of $897,219 in the three months ended September 30, 2010. Revenue increases compared to prior periods are attributable to higher production resulting from the 2011 drilling program and the addition of producing assets that were acquired on December 31, 2010. Revenues also increased due to an increase in commodity prices compared to the prior year periods.

Direct Operating Costs
Direct operating costs primarily include direct labor and equipment costs related to pumping, gauging, pulling, well repairs, and general maintenance requirements. These costs also include certain contract labor costs, and other non-capitalized expenses. Direct operating costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were $2,461,978 compared to $1,442,098 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Direct costs increased primarily as a result of deferred maintenance expenditures on vintage leases and expenses associated with the additional producing properties acquired on December 31, 2010. A majority of deferred maintenance expenditures were incurred in the first six months of 2011and we estimate that total deferred maintenance expenditures were approximately $500,000.
Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization
Depreciation, depletion and amortization for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010 was $975,908 and $399,584 respectively.
Professional Fees
Professional fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were $745,638 compared to $251,780 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The increase in professional fees was primarily a result of legal fees incurred for the closing of new acquisitions and capital raising activities. We incurred approximately $200,000 of non-recurring professional fees during the nine month period ended September 30, 2010. Non-recurring items include legal fees related to multiple transactions that closed on December 31, 2010, additional contract engineering work performed during the period, non-recurring legal expenses associated with a billing dispute, and consulting fees related to an operations study completed during the period.
Salaries
Salaries for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were $434,319 compared to $229,719 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.
Administrative Expense
Administrative expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were $536,614 compared to $495,332 in the nine months ended September 30, 2010. We incurred approximately $65,000 of non-recurring administrative expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Non-recurring items include transaction related financing fees and legal fees incurred for transaction related work.
11
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $333,977 whereas interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was $793,984. Interest expense is lower due to reduced borrowing under the Credit Facility and the conversion of the subordinated debentures into common equity.
Gain (Loss) on Derivatives
There was a gain on the derivative contracts in 2011 due to an increase in oil prices in addition to a new hedge contract entered into for the period of July 2011 through December 2015 with increased volume. The hedge price in the new hedge contract is $83.70, and the new contract replaced a prior hedge contract with a hedge price of $57.50.
Net Income (Loss)
Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $1,194,175 as compared to a loss of $1,362,441 in the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Non-cash expenses such as depreciation and depletion as well as loan costs and accretions are significant factors contributing to the net loss in the prior periods. The gain on the derivative contracts is a significant factor contributing to the net income in the current period.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity is a measure of a company's ability to meet potential cash requirements. We have historically met our capital requirements through debt financing, revenues from operations and the issuance of equity securities. On October 3, 2011, we entered into a new four-year $50,000,000 Credit Facility with Texas Capital Bank, N.A. The Credit Facility provides a borrowing base of $7,200,000 of which $6,131,000 is funded. We have approximately $1,070,000 of availability under the Credit Facility.
We manage our exposure to commodity price fluctuations by executing derivative transactions to hedge the change in prices of our production, thereby mitigating our exposure to price declines, but these transactions will also limit our earnings potential in periods of rising commodity prices. There also is a risk that we will be required to post collateral to secure our hedging activities and this could limit our available funds for our business activities.

Senior Secured Credit Facility
On October 3, 2011, we entered into a new Senior Secured Reducing Revolving Line of Credit of up to $50,000,000 (the "Credit Facility") pursuant to an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with Texas Capital Bank, N.A. The Credit Facility was used to refinance amounts outstanding under the prior credit facility, and will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.
Borrowings under the Credit Facility are subject to a borrowing base limitation based on our current proved oil reserves and will be subject to semi-annual redeterminations. The borrowing base effective as of October 3, 2011 was determined to be $7,200,000.
The Credit Facility is secured by a first priority lien and security interest in the assets of the Borrowers. The Credit Facility has a term of four years, and all principal amounts, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, will be due and payable in full on October 3, 2015. The Credit Facility also provides for the issuance of letters-of-credit up to a $750,000 sub-limit under the borrowing base.
12
At the Company's option, loans under the Credit Facility will bear stated interest based on the Base Rate plus Base Rate Margin, or Floating Rate plus Floating Rate Margin (as those terms are defined in the Credit Agreement). The Base Rate will be, for any day, a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the higher of (a) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50% and (b) the Bank's prime rate. The Floating Rate shall mean, at Borrower's option, a per annum interest rate equal to (i) the Eurodollar Rate plus Eurodollar Margin, or (ii) the Base Rate plus Base Rate Margin (as those terms are defined in the Credit Agreement). Eurodollar borrowings may be for one, two, three, or six months, as selected by the Borrowers. The margins for all loans are based on a pricing grid ranging from 0.00% to 0.75% for the Base Rate Margin and 2.25% to 3.00% for the Floating Rate Margin based on the Company's Borrowing Base Utilization Percentage (as defined in the Credit Agreement). A commitment fee of 0.500% on the unused portion of the borrowing base will accrue, and be payable quarterly in arrears.
The Credit Facility includes usual and customary affirmative covenants for credit facilities of this type and size, as well as customary negative covenants, including, among others, limitations on liens, mergers, asset sales or dispositions, payments of dividends, incurrence of additional indebtedness, and investments. The Credit Facility requires that we, at the end of each fiscal quarter beginning with the quarter ending September 30, 2011, maintain a minimum current assets to current liabilities ratio of no less than 1.00 to 1.00, and maintain a ratio of senior funded debt to EBITDA no greater than 4.75:1.00 for the quarters ending September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2011, and no greater than 4.50:1.00 for the quarter ending March 31, 2012 and each fiscal quarter thereafter.
The Credit Facility establishes minimum volumes to be hedged of not less than 50% nor more than 85% of the proved developed producing reserves attributable to our interest in the borrowing base oil properties projected to be produced.
Satisfaction of our cash obligations for the next 12 months
A critical component of our operating plan is the ability to obtain additional capital through additional equity and/or debt financing and working interest participants. We believe that our current amount of cash on hand and the Credit Facility will enable us to meet our obligations.
Summary of product research and development
We do not anticipate performing any significant product research and development under our plan of operation.
Expected purchase or sale of any significant equipment
We anticipate that we will purchase the necessary production and field service equipment required to produce oil during our normal course of operations over the next twelve months.
Significant changes in the number of employees
There have been no significant changes in number of employees and we currently have 21 full-time employees, including field personnel. As production and drilling activities increase or decrease, we may have to continue to adjust our technical, operational and administrative personnel as appropriate. We are using and will continue to use independent consultants and contractors to perform various professional services, particularly in the area of land services, reservoir engineering, geology drilling, water hauling, pipeline construction, well design, well-site monitoring and surveillance, permitting and environmental assessment. We believe that this use of third-party service providers may enhance our ability to contain operating and general expenses, and capital costs.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our critical accounting estimates include the value our oil and gas properties, asset retirement obligations, and share-based payments.
Oil Properties
The accounting for our business is subject to special accounting rules that are unique to the oil industry. There are two allowable methods of accounting for oil business activities: the successful efforts method and the full-cost method. We follow the full-cost method of accounting under which all costs associated with property acquisition, exploration and development activities are capitalized. We also capitalize internal costs that can be directly identified with our acquisition, exploration and development activities and do not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead or similar activities.
13
Under the full-cost method, capitalized costs are amortized on a composite unit-of-production method based on proved oil reserves. Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense is also based on the amount of estimated reserves. If we maintain the same level of production year over year, the depreciation, depletion and amortization expense may be significantly different if our estimate of remaining reserves changes significantly. Proceeds from the sale of properties are accounted for as reductions of capitalized costs unless such sales involve a significant change in the relationship between costs and the value of proved reserves or the underlying value of unproved properties, in which case a gain or loss is recognized. The costs of unproved properties are excluded from amortization until the properties are evaluated. We review all of our unevaluated properties quarterly to determine whether or not and to what extent proved reserves have been assigned to the properties, and otherwise if impairment has occurred. Unevaluated properties are assessed individually when individual costs are significant.
We review the carrying value of our oil properties under the full-cost accounting rules of the SEC on a quarterly basis. This quarterly review is referred to as a ceiling test. Under the ceiling test, capitalized costs, less accumulated amortization and related deferred income taxes, may not exceed an amount equal to the sum of the present value of estimated future net revenues (adjusted for cash flow hedges) less estimated future expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves, less any related income tax effects. In calculating future net revenues, current prices and costs used are those as of the end of the appropriate quarterly period. Such prices are utilized except where different prices are fixed and determinable from applicable contracts for the remaining term of those contracts, including the effects of derivatives qualifying as cash flow hedges. Two primary factors impacting this test are reserve levels and current prices, and their associated impact on the present value of estimated future net revenues. Revisions to estimates of oil reserves and/or an increase or decrease in prices can have a material impact on the present value of estimated future net revenues. Any excess of the net book value, less deferred income taxes, is generally written off as an expense. Under SEC regulations, the excess above the ceiling is not expensed (or is reduced) if, subsequent to the end of the period, but prior to the release of the financial statements, oil prices increase sufficiently such that an excess above the ceiling would have been eliminated (or reduced) if the increased prices were used in the calculations.
The process of estimating oil reserves is very complex, requiring significant decisions in the evaluation of available geological, geophysical, engineering and economic data. The data for a given property may also change substantially over time as a result of numerous factors, including additional development activity, evolving production history and a continual reassessment of the viability of production under changing economic conditions. As a result, material revisions to existing reserve estimates occur from time to time. Although every reasonable effort is made to ensure that reserve estimates reported represent the most accurate assessments possible, the subjective decisions and variances in available data for various properties increase the likelihood of significant changes in these estimates.
As of December 31, 2010, approximately 100% of our proved reserves were evaluated by an independent petroleum consultant. All reserve estimates are prepared based upon a review of production histories and other geologic, economic, ownership and engineering data.
Asset Retirement Obligations
The asset retirement obligation relates to the plug and abandonment costs when our wells are no longer useful. We determine the value of the liability by obtaining quotes for this service and estimate the increase we will face in the future. We then discount the future value based on an intrinsic interest rate that is appropriate for us. If costs rise more than what we have expected there could be additional charges in the future however we monitor the costs of the abandoned wells and we will adjust this liability if necessary.
Share-Based Payments
The value we assign to the options and warrants that we issue is based on the fair market value as calculated by the Black-Scholes pricing model. To perform a calculation of the value of our options and warrants, we determine an estimate of the volatility of our stock. We need to estimate volatility because there has not been enough trading of our stock to determine an appropriate measure of volatility. We believe our estimate of volatility is reasonable, and we review the assumptions used to determine this whenever we issue a new equity instruments. If we have a material error in our estimate of the volatility of our stock, our expenses could be understated or overstated.
Effects of Inflation and Pricing
The oil industry is very cyclical and the demand for goods and services of oil field companies, suppliers and others associated with the industry puts extreme pressure on the economic stability and pricing structure within the industry. Material changes in prices impact revenue stream, estimates of future reserves, borrowing base calculations of bank loans and value of properties in purchase and sale transactions. Material changes in prices can impact the value of oil companies and their ability to raise capital, borrow money and retain personnel. We anticipate business costs and the demand for services related to production and exploration will fluctuate while the commodity prices for oil remains volatile.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
We have entered into certain derivative or physical arrangements with respect to portions of our crude oil production, to reduce our sensitivity to volatile commodity prices and/or to meet hedging requirements under our Credit Facility. We believe that these derivative arrangements, although not free of risk, allow us to achieve a more predictable cash flow and to reduce exposure to commodity price fluctuations. However, derivative arrangements limit the benefit of increases in the prices of crude oil. Moreover, our derivative arrangements apply only to apportion of our production.
14
We have an Intercreditor Agreement in place between us, our counterparty BP Corporation North America, Inc. ("BP"), and our agent Texas Capital Bank, N.A., which allows Texas Capital Bank to also act as agent for BP for the purpose of holding and enforcing any liens or security interests resulting from our derivative arrangements. Therefore, we generally are not required to post additional collateral, including cash.
Our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, Robert G. Watson, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this Report.
