The plaintiff in the Stockholder Action alleges that, among other things, the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus contains certain disclosure deficiencies and/or incomplete information regarding the Mergers, and asserts claims for violations of Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the &#x201c;Exchange Act&#x201d;), and Rule 14a-9 promulgated thereunder against Patterson-UTI and its Board of Directors, and violations of Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act against Patterson-UTI&#x2019;s Board of Directors. The plaintiff in the Stockholder Action seeks, among other relief, an order enjoining defendants and all persons acting in concert with them from proceeding with, consummating, or closing the Mergers and any vote on the Mergers, rescission or an award of rescissory damages in the event the Mergers are consummated, and costs and reasonable attorney and expert fees. As of the date hereof, Patterson-UTI also has, to its knowledge, received one demand letter from a purported Patterson-UTI stockholder (the &#x201c;Demand Letter&#x201d; and, together with the Stockholder Action, the &#x201c;Stockholder Claims&#x201d;) alleging that the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus contains certain disclosure deficiencies and/or incomplete information regarding the Mergers. It is possible that additional, similar complaints may be filed, or that additional, similar demand letters may be received by Patterson-UTI, regarding the Mergers. Absent new or different allegations that are material or a disclosure obligation under the U.S. federal securities laws, Patterson-UTI will not necessarily disclose such additional complaints or demands.</span></p>

These disclosures, and disclosures of certain other matters, are provided in this Current Report on Form 8-K. Nothing in this Current Report on Form 8-K shall be deemed an admission of the legal necessity or materiality under applicable laws of any of the disclosures set forth herein.

Using the Patterson-UTI projections for Patterson-UTI, Goldman Sachs performed an illustrative discounted cash flow analysis on Patterson-UTI to derive a range of illustrative present values per share of Patterson-UTI common stock. Using the mid-year convention for discounting cash flows and discount rates ranging from 10.0% to 12.0%, reflecting estimates of Patterson-UTI&#x2019;s weighted average cost of capital, Goldman Sachs discounted to present value as of March 31, 2023 (i) estimates of unlevered free cash flow for Patterson-UTI for the period beginning April 1, 2023 through December 31, 2027 as reflected in the Patterson-UTI projections for Patterson-UTI and (ii) a range of illustrative terminal values for Patterson-UTI, which were calculated by applying terminal year exit enterprise value (&#x201c;EV&#x201d;) to EBITDA (&#x201c;EV/EBITDA&#x201d;) multiples ranging from 3.0x to 6.0x, to a terminal year estimate of the EBITDA to be generated by Patterson-UTI, as reflected in the Patterson-UTI projections for Patterson-UTI</span><span style="background-color:rgba(0,0,0,0);color:rgba(0,0,0,1);white-space:pre-wrap;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:underline;font-size:10.0pt;font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;, serif;min-width:fit-content;"> (which analysis implied perpetuity growth rates ranging from (6.3)% to 3.8%)</span><span style="background-color:rgba(0,0,0,0);color:rgba(0,0,0,1);white-space:pre-wrap;font-weight:normal;font-size:10.0pt;font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;, serif;min-width:fit-content;">.
