Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the content of the news release dated February 25, 2016 (Exhibit 99.1), as the filing text only references it without summarizing its contents.
- Confirm the company name discrepancy: The filing is for "Penn West Petroleum Ltd.," while the request metadata lists "OBSIDIAN ENERGY LTD." (Note: Penn West Petroleum was acquired by Obsidian Energy in 2016; this filing predates the merger completion).
- Review the full Form 40-F for the most recent audited financial statements, as this Form 6-K does not contain financial data.
