EXPLANATORY NOTE
Tellurian Inc. (we, us, Tellurian or the Company), a Delaware corporation formerly known as Magellan Petroleum Corporation (Magellan), is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A (this Amended Filing) to amend its Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 10, 2017 (the Original Filing), to file the audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 (the Audited Financial Statements) of Tellurian Investments Inc. (Tellurian Investments) which was acquired by Magellan on February 10, 2017, and to file the business and properties and pro forma information of Tellurian described below.
As discussed more fully in our Original Filing, on February 10, 2017, Tellurian completed the merger (the Merger) contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 2, 2016, as amended (the Merger Agreement), by and among Magellan, Tellurian Investments, and River Merger Sub, Inc., a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Magellan (Merger Sub).
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Tellurian Investments was canceled and converted into the right to receive 1.300 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company, and Merger Sub merged with and into Tellurian Investments, with Tellurian Investments continuing as the surviving corporation and a subsidiary of the Company. The Merger will be accounted for as a reverse acquisition in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP).
