Southwestern is now a pure-play E&P focused on Appalachia.
The proceeds will be used to retire senior notes of $900 million, retire the outstanding balance under the Company's revolving credit facility, repurchase stock up to the remainder of the Company's $200 million stock buyback program and invest in Appalachia assets over the next two years, subject to market conditions. Proceeds will be held in cash and cash equivalents until applied.
