(1) Includes 17,998,065 shares of common stock (Common Stock) of Triangle Petroleum Corporation (Triangle) issuable upon conversion of a convertible promissory note issued to NGP Triangle Holdings, LLC (NGP Triangle) on July 31, 2012, with an initial aggregate principal amount of $120,000,000 (the Convertible Note). The Convertible Note is convertible into shares of Common Stock at an initial conversion price of $8.00 per share. The aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Note increases each calendar quarter as a result of the accrual of the 5.0% per annum interest rate until September 30, 2017, at which time Triangle will have the option to pay any interest payments after such date by capitalizing and adding such amount to the aggregate principal amount outstanding or by paying in cash. Accordingly, accrued interest in the amount $1,000,000, $1,512,500, $1,531,406.25, $1,550,548.83, $1,569,930.69, $1,589,554.82, $1,609,424.26, $1,629,542.06, $1,649,911.34, $1,670,535.23, $1,691,416.92, $1,712,559.63, $1,733,966.63, $1,755,641.21 and $1,777,586.72 was added to the aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Note on September 30, 2012, December 31, 2012, March 31, 2013, June 30, 2013, September 30, 2013, December 31, 2013, March 31, 2014, June 30, 2014, September 30, 2014, December 31, 2014, March 31, 2015, June 30, 2015, September 30, 2015, December 31, 2015 and March 31, 2016, respectively, resulting in an aggregate principal amount of $143,984,524.58 as of the date of this statement. Based on an initial conversion price of $8.00 per share, $143,984,524.58 in principal amount of the Convertible Note is convertible into 17,998,065 shares of Common Stock.
(2) Calculated pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Act) to include all shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Note and based on a total of 76,305,321 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of June 6, 2016, as reported in Triangles Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended April 30, 2016, filed on June 8, 2016.
