This transaction further demonstrates our commitment to significantly improve our balance sheet with the elimination of over $2.6 million of asset retirement obligations and over $900,000 of associated joint venture costs. Furthermore, we were able to negotiate a deal valued significantly above our 2013 NPV 10% total proved reserve value, reflecting our commitment to execute on transactions that will ultimately be accretive to our shareholders.
