        <footnote id="F1">Jordan Tatum Marye (&quot;Marye&quot;) previously served on the Board of Directors of the Issuer (the &quot;Board&quot;) as a nominee of Covey Park Holdings LLC (&quot;Holdings&quot;). This amendment to Form 4 is being filed to revise the number of shares of restricted stock forfeited upon Marye's resignation from the Board. In addition, this amendment to Form 4 reflects that the reporting persons are no longer subject to Section 16 in connection with their transactions in the equity securities of the Issuer and therefore will no longer report any such transactions on Form 4 or Form 5.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">These shares are owned directly by Holdings. Holdings is managed by a board of managers, a majority of which is appointed by Covey Park Investment Holdings LLC (&quot;Investment Holdings&quot;). Any actions taken by Investment Holdings must be unanimously approved by its members, DCPF VI Oil and Gas Coinvestment Fund LP (&quot;Co-Invest&quot;), Denham Commodity Partners Fund VI LP (&quot;Fund VI&quot;) and Covey Park VI-A Intermediate LP (&quot;Intermediate&quot;). Co-Invest is managed by its general partner, DCPF VI GP O&amp;G LP (&quot;DCPF GP LP&quot;), which is managed by its general partner, DCPF VI GP O&amp;G LLC (&quot;DCPF GP LLC&quot;). Each of Fund VI and Intermediate is managed by its general partner, Denham Commodity Partners GP VI LP (&quot;GP VI LP&quot;), which is managed by its general partner, Denham GP VI LLC (&quot;GP VI LLC&quot;).</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">Each of GP VI LLC and DCPF GP LLC is controlled by Stuart D. Porter. Accordingly, each of Investment Holdings, Co-Invest, Fund VI, DCPF GP LP, GP VI LP, GP VI LLC, DCPF GP LLC and Stuart D. Porter may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of these shares; however, each disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares in excess of its pecuniary interest therein.</footnote>
