Fair Value Inputs, Assets, Quantitative Information

The following table presents information about significant unobservable inputs to the Company's Level 3 financial liability measured at fair value on a recurring basis as follows:



Description	Valuation technique	Significant unobservable inputs	December 31, 2014	June 30, 2014
Contingent consideration payable	Discounted cash flow model	Discount rate	8.0%	8.0%
		First production payout⁽¹⁾	N/A	June 30, 2015
		Second production payout	N/A	N/A

⁽¹⁾ During the quarter ended December 31, 2014, the Company deferred its plans to drill wells associated with proved undeveloped reserves incorporated in its reserves report as of June 30, 2014; as such, the timing of the first production payout, although uncertain, is expected to occur after June 30, 2015. Accordingly, no accretion of the liability was booked during the quarter ended December 31, 2014, and the liability has been classified on the balance sheet as long term.

- Definition

Tabular disclosure of the fair value measurement of liabilities using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances, separately presenting changes attributable to the following: (1) total gains or losses for the period (realized and unrealized), segregating those gains or losses included in earnings (or changes in net assets), and gains or losses recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) and a description of where those gains or losses included in earnings (or changes in net assets) are reported in the statement of income (or activities); (2) purchases, sales, issues, and settlements (each type disclosed separately); and (3) transfers in and transfers out of Level 3 (for example, transfers due to changes in the observability of significant inputs) by class of liability.
