(1) On December 12, 2018, Parker Drilling Company (the "Issuer") and certain of its U.S. subsidiaries, (collectively, with the Issuer, the "Debtors"), filed voluntary petitions in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division (the "Bankruptcy Court") seeking relief under the provisions of Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. On March 7, 2019, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the Debtors' Amended Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization, dated as of January 21, 2019 (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the "Plan"), and on March 26, 2019 (the "Effective Date"), the Plan became effective pursuant to its terms and the Debtors emerged from bankruptcy.
(2) On the Effective Date, all outstanding shares of the Issuer's common stock ("Old Common Stock") were cancelled and extinguished.
(3) Shares of Issuer common stock in the Reporting Person's 401(k) plan.
(4) New shares of the Issuer's common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the "New Shares") were issued to the Reporting Person pursuant to the Plan in exchange for Old Common Stock held by the Reporting Person on the Effective Date under the Plan. The receipt of New Shares was involuntary, without additional consideration and in accordance with the Plan approved by the Bankruptcy Court.
(5) In accordance with the Plan, the Reporting Person also received the right to participate in a rights offering to purchase New Shares for $15.06 per New Share (the Rights Offering) on account of the Old Common Stock held by the Reporting Person and the Reporting Person purchased New Shares in the Rights Offering.
(6) In accordance with the Plan, the Reporting Person also received Warrants to purchase New Shares in exchange for Old Common Stock held by the Reporting Person on the Effective Date.
(7) On the Effective Date, the Issuer and Equiniti Trust Company, a limited trust company organized under the laws of the State of New York, entered into the Warrant Agreement, dated as of the Effective Date (the "Warrant Agreement") pursuant to which each warrant became exercisable for one New Share. The warrants were exercisable from the date of issuance and expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the fifth and a half anniversary of the Effective Date.
