Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
Eclipse Holdings acquired its 129,700,000 shares of Common Stock for investment purposes. In connection with the IPO, EnCap Fund VIII, EnCap Fund VIII Co-Invest and EnCap Fund IX granted the underwriters in the IPO the option to purchase up to 1,945,230, 1,080,684 and 1,469,881 shares of Common Stock, respectively, on the same terms and conditions as the IPO solely to cover over-allotments. Other than as set forth in this Item 4, as of the date hereof, the Reporting Persons do not have any present plans or proposals that relate to or that would result in any of the actions specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
(a) Each of the Reporting Persons beneficially owns an aggregate of 129,700,000 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer, representing 81.1% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Issuer (based on 160,000,000 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately following the IPO, as set forth in the Issuers Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on June 30, 2014). Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the reported Common Stock except to the extent of such Reporting Persons pecuniary interest therein, and this statement shall not be deemed an admission that such Reporting Person is the beneficial owner of the reported Common Stock for the purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act or any other purpose.
(b) Pursuant to that certain Stockholders Agreement dated June 25, 2014 among the Issuer, Eclipse Holdings, EnCap Fund VIII, EnCap Fund VIII Co-Invest, EnCap Fund IX and the other parties thereto (the Stockholders Agreement), each partner of Eclipse Holdings, including, without limitation, EnCap Fund VIII, EnCap Fund VIII Co-Invest, and EnCap Fund IX, is entitled to instruct Eclipse Holdings to vote, in the sole discretion of such partner, the number of shares of Common Stock held by Eclipse Holdings as of the applicable voting record date that such partner would receive pursuant to the terms of the limited partnership agreement of Eclipse Holdings following the complete distribution on such record date of the shares of Common Stock held by Eclipse Holdings on such record date. The Issuer and the limited partners of Eclipse Holdings have agreed to take all action necessary to elect Benjamin W. Hulburt, Christopher K. Hulburt and up to five persons designated by the EnCap Funds to the Board of Directors of the Issuer. Therefore, the EnCap Funds may be deemed to share the power to vote or to direct the vote of 129,700,000 shares of Common Stock held by Eclipse Holdings. Eclipse Holdings shares the power to vote or direct the vote of 129,700,000 shares of Common Stock.
The EnCap Funds have the right to appoint four of seven members of the Board of Managers of Eclipse Holdings. Therefore, Messrs. Miller, Phillips, Petersen and Zorich may be deemed to share the power to vote or to direct the vote of 129,700,000 shares of Common Stock held by Eclipse Holdings.
Messrs. Miller, Phillips, Petersen, and Zorich are the controlling members of RNBD, the sole member of EnCap Investments GP, the general partner of EnCap Investments. EnCap Investments is the general partner of EnCap Equity Fund VIII GP and EnCap Equity Fund IX GP. EnCap Fund VIII GP is the general partner of EnCap Fund VIII, the sole member of Eclipse Holdings GP, the general partner of Eclipse Holdings. EnCap Fund IX GP is the general partner of EnCap Fund IX. Any action taken by RNBD to dispose or acquire securities of the EnCap Funds has to be unanimously approved by all four members. Therefore, Messrs. Miller, Phillips, Petersen and Zorich share the power to vote or to direct the vote and to dispose or to direct the disposition of Common Stock held by the EnCap Funds.
The Reporting Persons share the power to dispose or to direct the disposition of 129,700,000 shares of Common Stock held by Eclipse Holdings.
(c) Other than as described in Item 3 or Item 4, no Reporting Person has effected any transactions in the shares of Common Stock during the 60 days preceding the date hereof.
(d) No person other than the Reporting Persons have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the shares of Common Stock reported on this Schedule 13D.
(e) Inapplicable.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
The information contained in Item 3 is hereby incorporated by reference herein.
Underwriting Agreement
On June 19, 2014, the Issuer entered into an underwriting agreement with the stockholders of the Company named therein (including the EnCap Funds) (the Selling Stockholders) and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Goldman, Sachs & Co. and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (collectively, the Underwriters), relating to the offer and sale of the Common Stock (the Underwriting Agreement). The Underwriting Agreement provides for the offer and sale by the Company and the Selling Stockholders, and the purchase by the Underwriters, of an aggregate of 30,300,000 shares of Common Stock, consisting of 21,500,000 shares of Common Stock sold by the Company and 8,800,000 shares of Common Stock sold by the Selling Stockholders, at a price to the public of $27.00 per share ($25.5825 per share net of underwriting discounts and commissions) in connection with the IPO. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Selling Stockholders granted the Underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an aggregate of 4,545,000 additional shares of Common Stock held by the Selling Stockholders if the Underwriters sell more than an aggregate of 30,300,000 shares of Common Stock.
The foregoing summary of the Underwriting Agreement does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Underwriting Agreement filed as Exhibit 1.1 to the Issuers Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 24, 2014, and incorporated herein by reference.
Stockholders Agreement
In connection with the closing of the IPO, the Issuer, Eclipse Holdings and the limited partners of Eclipse Holdings (including the EnCap Funds) entered into the Stockholders Agreement. The Stockholders Agreement provides that the EnCap Funds may designate up to five persons to the board of directors of the Issuer, calculated based upon the percentage of outstanding shares of Common Stock held by the EnCap Funds. The Stockholders Agreement also provides that each partner of Eclipse Holdings is entitled to instruct Eclipse Holdings to vote, in such partners sole discretion, the number of shares of Common Stock held by Eclipse Holdings as of the applicable voting record date that such partner would receive pursuant to the terms of the limited partnership agreement of Eclipse Holdings following the complete distribution on such record date of the shares of Common Stock held by Eclipse Holdings on such record date.
The foregoing summary of the Stockholders Agreement does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Stockholders Agreement filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Issuers Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 30, 2014, and incorporated herein by reference.
Agreement of Limited Partnership of Eclipse Holdings
In connection with the corporate reorganization prior to the IPO, Eclipse Holdings and the limited partners of Eclipse Holdings (including the EnCap Funds) entered into that certain limited partnership agreement of Eclipse Holdings dated June 6, 2014 (the Eclipse Holdings LPA). The Eclipse Holdings LPA provides that the EnCap Funds and their permitted transferees have the right to appoint four (4) of the seven (7) representatives to the board of managers of Eclipse Holdings. A majority of the votes of the board of managers of Eclipse Holdings is required to vote or to abstain from voting the shares of Eclipse Holdings shares of Common Stock on any given matter to be voted upon by the shareholders of the Issuer. A supermajority of the votes (which includes the votes of the managers designated by the EnCap Funds plus one manager that is not designated by the EnCap Funds) of the board of managers of Eclipse Holdings is required to sell all or any portion of the shares of Common Stock held by Eclipse Holdings.
The foregoing summary of the Eclipse Holdings LPA does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Eclipse Holdings LPA filed as Exhibit 10.13 to the Issuers S-1 Registration Statement, as amended, filed with the SEC on June 9, 2014, and incorporated herein by reference.
Registration Rights Agreement
In connection with the closing of the IPO, Eclipse Holdings and its limited partners (including the EnCap Funds) entered into the Registration Rights Agreement dated June 25, 2014 with the Issuer and the other parties thereto (the Registration Rights Agreement). Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Issuer agreed to register the resale of shares of Common Stock issued to Eclipse Holdings in the Issuers corporate reorganization under certain circumstances.
The Registration Rights Agreement provides that at any time after the closing of the IPO, subject to certain limitations, Eclipse Holdings and its limited partners (including the EnCap Funds) will have the right, to the extent they hold specified shares of Common Stock, to require the Issuer by written notice to prepare and file a registration statement registering the offer and sale of a number of their shares of Common Stock. Once the Issuer is eligible to effect a registration on Form S-3, any such demand registration may be for a shelf registration statement. Any holder that is able to request a demand registration will also have the option to require the Issuer to effectuate a distribution of their shares of Common Stock through a firm commitment underwritten offering (so long as the aggregate value of the shares to be included in the offering is at least $30 million (based on a 20-day VWAP)). The Issuer will be required to maintain the effectiveness of any such registration statement until the earlier of (i) 180 days (or two years if a shelf registration is requested) after the effective date or (ii) the date of the consummation of the distribution by the participating holders or on which the shares covered by the registration statement cease to be registrable securities pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement. If, at any time, the Issuer proposes to register an offering of Common Stock (subject to certain exceptions) whether or not for our own account, then the Issuer must give at least 5 days notice to all holders of registrable securities to allow them to include a specified number of their shares in that offering. The registration rights provided by the Registration Rights Agreement are subject to certain conditions and limitations, including the right of the underwriters to limit the number of shares to be included in a firm commitment underwritten offering and the Issuers right to terminate or suspend an offering under certain circumstances.
The foregoing summary of the Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Registration Rights Agreement filed as Exhibit 10.2 to the Issuers Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 30, 2014, and incorporated herein by reference.
