Funds for the purchase of other shares reported as beneficially owned by the Reporting Entities were or will be provided from the assets of other funds for which the Adviser acts as investment adviser. ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION. Seitel, Inc. emerged from bankruptcy proceedings on July 2, 2004. As part of its new capitalization, Seitel registered (Registration No. 333-113446) 125,000,000 shares of new common stock (the "Common Stock") and 25,375,683 Common Stock purchase warrants (the "Purchase Warrants"), which were issued to its stockholders of record as of June 25, 2004. Each of the Purchase Warrants is exercisable, at 60 cents per share, for 4.926 shares of Common Stock, until they expire on August 2, 2004. To ensure that the Company would realize gross proceeds of $75,000,000 to the extent the Purchase Warrants are not exercised in full prior to August 2, 2004, Seitel entered into a Standby Funding Commitment Letter Agreement (the "Standby Purchase Agreement"), dated as of January 5, 2004, with HBV Alternative Strategies LLC (on behalf of the Fund and certain other funds and accounts managed by the Adviser (the "Mellon entities")). Pursuant to the Standby Purchase Agreement, the Mellon entities agreed to act as standby purchasers, and in that capacity to purchase, after the Purchase Warrants expire on or prior to August 12, 2004 (the "Guaranty Performance Date"), at 60 cents per share, all shares of Common Stock not sold upon the exercise of the Purchase Warrants. If none of the Purchase Warrants are exercised before they expire, the Mellon entities would be required to purchase all 125,000,000 shares of Common Stock for $75,000,000 in cash. In consideration for the standby purchase obligation, Seitel has agreed to issue 15,037,568 additional warrants to the Mellon entities on the Guaranty Performance Date (the "Standby Warrants"), which will be exercisable, at 72 cents per share (subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events), through July 2, 2011. Page 8 of 17 Under the Standby Purchase Agreement, the Adviser also was granted the right to designate 2 out of 7 directors to serve on reorganized Seitel's board of directors. The Adviser has designated Messrs. Robert J. Simon and Robert Kelley to serve on Seitel's board, effective as of July 2, 2004, when the Company emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings. In addition, the Adviser participated in the selection of a third director (together with the chairman of the board and the official equity committee), Mr. Randell D. Stilley, to serve as an initial director of Seitel. ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER The Reporting Entities currently have sole voting and dispositive power with respect to 2,356,132 shares of Seitel Common Stock, of which 1,766,132 shares are held by the Fund and the remaining shares are held by other funds or accounts for which the Adviser acts as investment adviser Pursuant to Seitel's Registration Statement and the aforementioned Standby Purchase Agreement, the Reporting Entities may acquire an additional (1) 11,606,306 shares of Seitel Common Stock upon exercise of Purchase Warrants (CUSIP NO. 816074140) issued to Mellon on July 2, 2004; (2) up to 113,393,694 shares of Seitel Common Stock on the Guaranty Performance Date; and (3) 15, 037,568 shares of Seitel Common Stock upon exercise of the Standby Warrants. Of these, the Fund may acquire an additional (1) 8,699,966 shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Purchase Warrants, (2) up to 84,998,779 shares of Common Stock on the Guaranty Performance Date and (3) 11,271,996 shares upon exercise of the Standby Warrants. On July 2, 2004, Seitel issued to the Mellon entities 2,356,132 shares of new Seitel Common Stock in exchange for previously held shares. In addition, Mellon entities received 2,356,132 Purchase Warrants which, if exercised, would enable them to acquire an additional 11,606,306 shares. If all the Purchase Warrants issued to Mellon and the other shareholders of the Company were exercised, the Reporting Entities' beneficial interest in Seitel's Common Stock would remain at 9.28%. If none of the other shareholders exercise their Purchase Warrants prior to their expiration on August 2, 2004, under the Standby Purchase Agreement Mellon entities will be required to purchase an additional 113,393,694 shares of Seitel on the Guaranty Performance Date. However, even if Mellon entities are not required by Seitel to purchase any additional shares of new Seitel Common Stock under the Standby Purchase Agreement, Mellon entities will receive additional Standby Warrants to purchase 15,037,568 shares (or, on a fully diluted basis 9.10%) of Seitel Common Stock at an exercise price of 72 cents per share (subject to adjustment in certain circumstances). The percentages reported herein assume exercise by the Reporting Entities of the Purchase Warrants and the Standby Warrants issued to them, but no exercise by any other holder of the Purchase Warrants. ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER Under the Standby Purchase Agreement, Mellon entities are entitled to certain registration rights with respect to the Seitel Common Stock and Standby Warrants. On July 2, 2004, Seitel entered into a registration rights agreement (the "RRA") with Mellon granting Mellon entities two demand registration rights and unlimited piggy-back registration rights to Page 9 of 17 enable them to resell all of the Common Stock and Standby Warrants issued to them. A copy of the RRA is incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 2. ITEM 7. MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS
