(Nasdaq:LONE) (“Lonestar”) for approximately $50 million of cash, subject to the January 1, 2017, effective date and other normal and customary pre and post-closing adjustments. Additionally, the Company received Lonestar preferred stock that is structured to be converted into 1.5 million shares of common stock.
Transaction Highlights:
