5 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND THE CLOSING OF THE PROPOSED RECAPITALIZATION (THE RECAPITALIZATION ) Connacher Oil and Gas Limited ( Connacher or the Company ) is a public company listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol CLL and headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The address of the Company s principal office is Suite 900, 322-6th Avenue S.W., Calgary, Alberta. Connacher is an in situ oil sands developer, producer, and marketer of bitumen. On January 30, 2015, the Company announced a proposed recapitalization transaction (the Recapitalization ) aimed at significantly reducing the Company s debt burden and providing additional liquidity to fund ongoing operations. On April 23, 2015, the Court of Queen s Bench of Alberta approved the plan of arrangement, as amended. The Recapitalization included, amongst other things: The exchange of approximately CA$1.0 billion of Connacher s debt for common shares of Connacher The issuance by Connacher of US$35 million aggregate principal amount of new second lien convertible notes due August 1, 2018 (the New Convertible Notes ) The Company will have the option to accrue and compound interest payments due on the New Convertible Notes Reduction of annual interest expense in the range of CA$80 million Amendments to the existing first lien term loan credit agreement (the Term Loan Facility ) dated May 23, 2014 to increase the total commitments to provide for loans in the aggregate principal amount of US$24.8 million (equivalent of CA$30 million) to replace the existing revolving credit facility as outlined in financial statement note 7.2 The consolidation of the Company s common shares on the basis of 1 new common share for 800 existing common shares The Recapitalization closed on May 8, As part of the closing of the Recapitalization, the Company received net proceeds of $49.3 million, which included gross proceeds of $72.3 million, less estimated transaction costs of $23.0 million. Trading in the Company's common shares on a post-consolidation basis will occur on May 14, 2015 and the common shares will trade under a new trading symbol: TSX-CLC. Following the consolidation and the Recapitalization, the total issued and outstanding common shares of the Company will be approximately 28,309, GOING CONCERN The condensed interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which asserts the Company has the ability to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. Conversely, if the going concern assumption is not appropriate, adjustments to the carrying amounts of the Company s assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and balance sheet classifications may be necessary. Future operations are dependent on the generation of sustainable positive cash flow from operations; the maintenance of existing reserve and production bases; access to capital; and the ability to discharge obligations as they come due. Subsequent to March 31, 2015, the Company closed the Recapitalization; however, the current economic outlook on global crude oil prices may cast significant doubt about the Company s ability to continue as a going concern and additional funding may be necessary. 3. BASIS OF PREPARATION The condensed interim financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard ( IAS ) 34 - Interim Financial Reporting and follow the same accounting policies and methods of computation as the most recent annual financial statements. Certain information and disclosures normally required to be included in notes to the annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted. Accordingly, the condensed interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014, which were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ( IFRS ). 5
