Drilling Program Update
During the third quarter of 2017, Amplify increased average daily production by 4% to 177.4 MMcfe/d, in-line with quarterly guidance. The Company initiated its East Texas drilling program and successfully completed 3.0 gross (3.0 net) horizontal wells in the Cotton Valley formation. The three completed wells had average peak rate of 10 MMcfe/d per well, in-line with the Company's expectations. The average lateral length for the three completed horizontal wells was approximately 6,000 feet with an average of thirty stages, or 200 foot stage spacing. Compared to historical wells, completion designs for the first three wells were implemented with higher proppant loadings and closer stage spacing.
Prior to year-end 2017, the Company expects to have drilled three additional horizontal Cotton Valley wells with completion of the wells expected in 2018. The Company's East Texas development program is focused on the Joaquin and Tatum fields in Shelby, Rusk and Panola counties.
The Company also participated in 14.0 gross (0.9 net) non-operated wells brought on-line in the third quarter in the Eagle Ford Shale formation. Well results exceeded expectations with an average peak rate of 1,762 Boe/d per well (93% liquids). Prior to year-end 2017, three additional wells are expected to achieve first production.
Capital Spending
Amplify's capital spend for the quarter was approximately $25 million, in-line with quarterly guidance. Third quarter capital was allocated 82% in East Texas, 11% in the Eagle Ford and the remainder focused primarily on workover and infrastructure related projects in California, the Rockies and South Texas.
Based on the current drilling program, the Company's capex program for the fourth quarter of 2017 is expected to be approximately $10 to $15 million. Amplify anticipates spending approximately 68% of this capital in East Texas and 10% in the Eagle Ford, with the remainder focused primarily on infrastructure related capital in California, the Rockies and South Texas.
Third-Party Midstream Transaction Payment
In October 2017, Amplify received approximately $15.5 million in connection with the sale of a third-party midstream entity with whom the Company's natural gas gathering and processing agreements entitled Amplify to a percentage of the proceeds in the event of a sale. The proceeds from this transaction were used to pay down debt under the Company's revolving credit facility. The sale will have no impact on the Company's gathering and processing costs.
Revolving Credit Facility and Liquidity
As of November 3, 2017, Amplify had total debt of $388 million under its revolving credit facility, with a current borrowing base of $475 million. Amplify's liquidity was $101 million as of November 3, 2017, consisting of $17 million of cash on hand and available borrowing capacity of $84 million (including the impact of $2.5 million in outstanding letters of credit). The Company expects the fall redetermination of its revolving credit facility to occur in November.
Divestiture Update — East Texas, Bairoil, South Texas and Eagle Ford
Amplify continues to work with Jefferies LLC to explore strategic alternatives for the Company to maximize value for its shareholders. The Company launched divestiture processes in October for its East Texas assets and Rockies CO2 assets in Wyoming. As previously announced, the Company launched divestiture processes for its South Texas conventional and Eagle Ford assets. Amplify received multiple bids for both assets and is in active discussions to maximize value.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this press release that address activities, events or developments that Amplify expects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. Terminology such as "will," "would," "should," "could," "expect," "anticipate," "plan," "project," "intend," "estimate," "believe," "target," "continue," "potential," the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Amplify believes that these statements are based on reasonable assumptions, but such assumptions may prove to be inaccurate. Such statements are also subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the control of Amplify, that may cause Amplify's actual results to differ materially from those implied or expressed by the forward-looking statements. Please read the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including "Risk Factors" in its Annual Report on Form 10-K, and if applicable, its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K, and other public filings and press releases for a discussion of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from those in such forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this press release. All forward-looking statements in this press release are qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. Amplify undertakes no obligation and does not intend to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future results or otherwise.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release and accompanying schedules include the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow. The accompanying schedules provide a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Amplify's non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to GAAP measures such as net income, operating income, net cash flows provided by operating activities or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Amplify's non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because they may not calculate such measures in the same manner as Amplify does.
Adjusted EBITDA. Amplify defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss, plus interest expense; income tax expense; depreciation, depletion and amortization; impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets; accretion of asset retirement obligations; losses on commodity derivative instruments; cash settlements received on expired commodity derivative instruments; losses on sale of assets; unit-based compensation expenses; exploration costs; acquisition and divestiture related expenses; amortization of gain associated with terminated commodity derivatives, bad debt expense; and other non-routine items, less interest income; gain on extinguishment of debt; income tax benefit; gains on commodity derivative instruments; cash settlements paid on expired commodity derivative instruments; gains on sale of assets and other, net; and other non-routine items. Adjusted EBITDA is commonly used as a supplemental financial measure by management and external users of Amplify's financial statements, such as investors, research analysts and rating agencies, to assess: (1) its operating performance as compared to other companies in Amplify's industry without regard to financing methods, capital structures or historical cost basis; (2) the ability of its assets to generate cash sufficient to pay interest and support Amplify's indebtedness; and (3) the viability of projects and the overall rates of return on alternative investment opportunities. Since Adjusted EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect net income or loss and because these measures may vary among other companies, the Adjusted EBITDA data presented in this press release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA is net cash provided by operating activities.
Free Cash Flow. Amplify defines Free Cash Flow as Adjusted EBITDA, less cash income taxes; cash interest expense; and total capital expenditures. Free cash flow is an important non-GAAP financial measure for Amplify's investors since it serves as an indicator of the Company's success in providing a cash return on investment. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to distributable cash flow is net cash provided by operating activities.
