Nordheim Closing
Abraxas recently closed the previously announced divestiture of the

accounting for purchase price adjustments.
Bob Watson, President and CEO of Abraxas, commented, “We are very
enthused by our continued execution on the A&D front with the closing of
the Nordheim divestiture. Abraxas now enters 2013 poised for strong
growth, a leaner balance sheet and an enviable asset base.”

Safe Harbor for forward-looking statements: Statements in this release
looking forward in time involve known and unknown risks and
uncertainties, which may cause Abraxas’ actual results in future periods
to be materially different from any future performance suggested in this
release. Such factors may include, but may not be necessarily limited
to, changes in the prices received by Abraxas for crude oil and natural
gas. In addition, Abraxas’ future crude oil and natural gas production
is highly dependent upon Abraxas’ level of success in acquiring or
finding additional reserves. Further, Abraxas operates in an industry
sector where the value of securities is highly volatile and may be
influenced by economic and other factors beyond Abraxas’ control. In the
context of forward-looking information provided for in this release,
reference is made to the discussion of risk factors detailed in Abraxas’
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission during the past 12
months.
