Explanatory Note

Oasis Petroleum Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A to its Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 11, 2011 for the purpose of disclosing under Item 5.07 of Form 8-K its decision following its annual meeting of shareholders, as to the frequency with which it will include a stockholder vote on the compensation of executives in its annual meeting proxy materials until the next required vote on the frequency of stockholder votes on the compensation of executives. This Amendment No. 1 does not otherwise amend or modify the May 11, 2011 Form 8-K in any way.

Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

At the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on May 5, 2011, the Company’s stockholders voted on, among other things, an advisory proposal concerning the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation. As reported in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated May 11, 2011, at the meeting, consistent with the Company’s Board of Directors’ recommendation, stockholders cast the highest number of votes for a biennial (every two years) frequency instead of an annual frequency or a triennial (every three years) frequency. In light of this vote and other factors, the Company’s Board of Directors has determined that the Company will hold a biennial advisory vote on executive compensation. Accordingly, the Company will include an advisory vote on executive compensation every two years, in its future proxy materials until the next stockholder vote on the frequency of such votes. The Company will re-evaluate the determination in connection with its next stockholder advisory vote regarding the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation.
