Petroleum Development Corporation Amends Its Revolving Bank Loan Agreement

BRIDGEPORT, W.Va., Nov. 20 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Petroleum Development Corporation (Nasdaq: PETD) announced it has entered into a fifth amendment of its revolving bank loan agreement. The amendment increases the Company's borrowing base, adds an additional lender, and amends certain other provisions. The bank commitment was increased by $75 million to $375 million.

Richard W. McCullough, Chief Executive Officer, noted: "While we don't expect to need this additional liquidity for drilling in 2009, this amendment does provide us with an enhanced liquidity cushion in a volatile commodity price environment and an increased ability to make opportunistic acquisitions. We are pleased with this vote of confidence from our bank group during a very turbulent financial market period. The successful execution of this transaction demonstrates the relationship we've been able to develop with our financial institutions."
