19 Mar 2018business combination● NeutralMajor
The Fifth Creek merger closed on March 19, 2018. Each Bill Barrett share was converted into one share of HighPoint Resources Corporation (formerly Red Rider Holdco), 110,933,552 shares in total, while Fifth Creek's owners received 100,000,000 HighPoint shares. Bill Barrett is now a wholly owned subsidiary of HighPoint, its stock is being withdrawn from the NYSE with HighPoint trading as HPR from March 20, 2018, and it expects to stop SEC reporting. Alongside this, the credit agreement was amended (HighPoint became a guarantor and pledged its Bill Barrett shares), Fifth Creek was merged into Bill Barrett, and the Goldman Sachs at-the-market equity program (up to $100 million) was terminated. This resolves the merger thread from December 2017; all directors except Woodall were replaced by Wonstolen, and officers stay.

Bill Barrett closed the sale of its remaining non-core Uinta Basin assets on December 29, 2017 to Lonesome Oil & Gas, LLC and Big West Exploration and Production LLC, for about $100 million in cash, subject to post-closing adjustment. This resolves the sale agreed on November 20 (about $110 million expected then, $103.0 million estimated closing cash), so the final cash figure is a bit lower; the company says proceeds go to general corporate purposes.

On December 13, 2017, holders of a majority of both the 7% 2022 notes and 8.75% 2025 notes approved changes so the Fifth Creek merger will not count as a 'change of control'; Bill Barrett paid $1,668,975 in consent fees. On December 15 it completed the exchange of $50 million of 7% notes for 10,863,000 shares of common stock. This clears a debt hurdle for the merger announced December 4 and cuts the 2022 notes outstanding.
