ACQUISITIONS

Beginning in February 2011, 公司达成协议，收购位于俄亥俄州尤蒂卡页岩的某些租赁权益. 某些协议还授予公司对卖方所租赁的某些额外土地的六个月的独家优先购买权. Gulfport的附属公司最初以50/50的比例参与了上述所有租约的收购. 2012年12月17日，格尔夫波特公司签署了一份最终协议，购买大约 30,000 net acres in the Utica Shale in Eastern Ohio for approximately $302.0 million. On December 19, 2012, 双方修改了该协议，为Gulfport收购约 7,000 additional net acres for approximately $70.0 million, resulting in a total purchase price of approximately $372.0 million, subject to certain adjustments. This transaction closed on December 24, 2012. At closing, approximately $53.9 million 购买价格的一部分被置于托管中，等待交易完成后的所有权审查. 该交易将使Gulfport在Utica页岩的租赁权益增加到大约 137,000 gross (106,000 net) acres, excluded 14 existing wells, along with certain acreage surrounding each well. Gulfport将继续作为Utica页岩的运营商. Gulfport在12月24日结束的普通股发行中获得的部分净收益为此次收购提供了资金, 2012. 公司收到的总净收益（包括承销商部分行使超额配售权的净收益）约为 $427.9 million from this equity offering, as discussed below in Note 8. As of December 31, 2012, Gulfport has paid a total of $619.6 million for its Ohio acreage.
