GP III-A is the sole general partner of Fund III-A, which is the sole member of Holdco III-A. As a result, Fund III GP, GREP GP III, GREP GP III Holdings, GP III-A and Fund III-A may be deemed to share the power to vote or direct the vote or to dispose or direct the disposition of the Common Stock owned by Holdco III-A.
Holdco III-B is indirectly controlled by Fund III GP. Fund III GP is the sole general partner of GREP GP III, which is the sole member of GREP GP III Holdings, which is the sole general partner of GP III-B. GP III-B is the sole general partner of each of Fund III-B and Fund III-B Holdings. Fund III-B and Fund III-B Holdings are the sole members of Holdco III-B. As a result, Fund III GP, GREP GP III, GREP GP III Holdings, GP III-B, Fund III-B and Fund III-B Holdings may be deemed to share the power to vote or direct the vote or to dispose or direct the disposition of the Common Stock owned by Holdco III-B.
Investment discretion with respect to Fund III GP and its indirect subsidiaries, which hold the Common Stock described above, is maintained by a separate investment committee constituted at Fund III GP (the "Grey Rock Investment Committee"). The members of the Grey Rock Investment Committee are Matthew Miller, Thaddeus Darden and Eric Holley. Approval of a majority of the members of the Grey Rock Investment Committee is required to approve any investment decision for Fund III GP. Under the so-called "rule of three," if voting and dispositive decisions regarding an entity's securities are made by three or more individuals, and a voting or dispositive decision requires the approval of at least a majority of those individuals, then none of the individuals is deemed a beneficial owner of the entity's securities. Based upon the foregoing analysis, no member of the Grey Rock Investment Committee exercises voting or dispositive control over any of the securities held directly or indirectly by Fund III GP. Accordingly, none of them is deemed to have or share beneficial ownership of such shares. The shares of Common Stock reported herein as beneficially owned by Messrs. Miller, Darden and Holley are held directly by them or through Grey Rock II-C, and are not attributable to them by virtue of their membership on the Grey Rock Investment Committee.
Grey Rock II-C was formed for the benefit of former limited partners of Grey Rock Energy Fund II, LP, Grey Rock Energy Fund II-B, LP and Grey Rock Energy Fund II-B Holdings, L.P. (collectively, "Fund II") following a distribution of shares of Common Stock previously held by it. Grey Rock II-C is indirectly controlled by Management V and Matthew Miller and Thaddeus Darden. Matthew Miller and Thaddeus Darden are the sole members and managers of Management V, which is the sole manager of Grey Rock II-C. As a result, Management V and Matthew Miller and Thaddeus Darden may be deemed to share the power to vote or direct the vote or to dispose or direct the disposition of the Common Stock owned by Grey Rock II-C. | |
