On June 21, 2016, Saratoga Resources, Inc. issued a press release announcing that it had filed a Notice of Hearing on Approval of Adequacy of Disclosure Statement for Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization (the “Notice of Hearing”).  The Notice of Hearing reflects the filing by Saratoga and its subsidiaries (the “Debtors”) of a Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization and Disclosure Statement, the scheduling of a hearing to consider the adequacy of the Disclosure Statement and the last day to object to the Disclosure Statement.

Copies of the press release and Notice of Hearing are filed herewith as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2.  The press release and Notice of Hearing provide directions for parties desiring to obtain copies of the Disclosure Statement and Plan of Reorganization.
