On June 30, Sabine Oil & Gas Corp. and its lenders amended the forbearance agreement to its revolving credit facility, the company said July 1.

Additional financial flexibility will be available as Sabine discusses debt and capital structure with creditors and professionals, the company added.

Lenders agreed to not exercise remedies until there is a default under the forbearance or facility, or remedies are accelerated by any other lenders or creditors during the July 15 forbearance period.

During this time Sabine will limit the sale of its assets, appoint a chief restructuring officer, separate proceeds from collateral under the facility and pay a forbearance fee equal to $500,000.
