Recapitalization Transaction RECAPITALIZATION TRANSACTION
Background and Summary
On August 8, 2018, KAAC, the legal predecessor company, and its then wholly-owned subsidiary, Altus Midstream LP, entered into the Contribution Agreement with certain wholly-owned subsidiaries of Apache, including the Altus Midstream Entities. The terms of the Contribution Agreement included that Altus Midstream would acquire from Apache, all of the outstanding equity interests in each of the Altus Midstream Entities and the Pipeline Options to acquire equity interests in certain third-party pipelines that are expected to be placed into service in 2019 and 2020.
The Company consummated the Business Combination and certain other transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement on the Closing Date. On the Closing Date:
Altus Midstream issued to Apache common units, representing limited partner interests in Altus Midstream, and the Company issued to Apache an equivalent number of shares of a newly-created class of voting-only common stock (Class C Common Stock).
The Company issued to Apache (i) newly issued shares of Class A Common Stock, (ii) warrants exercisable for shares of Class A Common Stock, and (iii) the right to receive additional shares of Class A Common Stock, based upon the achievement of certain price and operational thresholds.
The Company contributed $628.2 million in cash to Altus Midstream and in return, Altus Midstream issued to the Company a number of common units equal to the total number of shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock outstanding as of the Closing Date.
Ownership of Altus
Upon the closing of the Business Combination and as of March 31, 2019 Altus’ wholly-owned subsidiary, Altus Midstream GP, was the sole general partner of Altus Midstream and the Company held an approximate 23.1 percent controlling interest in Altus Midstream. Altus Midstream’s other limited partner (Apache) held the remaining 76.9 percent noncontrolling interest.
Additionally, as of the Closing Date and as of March 31, 2019, Apache was the largest single holder of the Company’s voting common stock, comprising 100 percent of newly-created, non-economic Class C Common Stock, and approximately 9.8 percent of economic, Class A Common Stock.
The amended and restated limited partnership agreement of Altus Midstream (the LPA) contains certain provisions intended to ensure that a one-to-one ratio is maintained, at all times and subject only to limited exceptions, between (i) the number of outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and the number of common units held by Altus and (ii) the number of outstanding shares of Class C Common Stock and the number of common units held by Apache.
For further discussion of the earn-out consideration provided to Apache and outstanding equity instruments, that may impact ownership interests and the limited partnership interests of Altus Midstream in future periods, please see Note 12 — Equity.

(1)
Shares of Class B Common Stock, $0.0001 par value (“Class B Common Stock”), were purchased by the Sponsor upon the Company’s incorporation in December 2016. Class B Common Stock is identical to Class A Common Stock except that they automatically converted to Class A Common Stock at the time of the Business Combination.
(2)
Pursuant to the terms of KAAC’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, public stockholders had the opportunity, in connection with the Business Combination, to redeem shares of Class A Common Stock. A total of 29,469,858 shares were redeemed for an aggregate amount of approximately $298.8 million.
(3)
In connection with the Business Combination, the Sponsor agreed to forfeit shares of Class B Common Stock. As part of the consideration transferred in the Business Combination, 7,313,028 newly issued shares of Class A Common Stock were issued to Apache, equivalent to the number of shares of Class B Common Stock forfeited by the Sponsor. Additionally, the Sponsor forfeited a number of warrants originally issued simultaneously with the public offering.
(4)
The equity structure of the Altus Midstream Entities (the accounting acquirer) has been restated to reflect the number of shares of Altus Midstream Company (the accounting acquiree) issued in the recapitalization transaction. Please refer to the section below entitled “Basis of presentation of equity structure” for further discussion.
Basis of Presentation of Equity Structure
As discussed in Note 1 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, the Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, with Altus Midstream Company treated as the acquired company, and the Altus Midstream Entities treated as the acquirer, for financial reporting purposes. Therefore, the equity structure in the consolidated financial statements is that of the Company restated for all periods presented.
In accordance with guidance applicable to these circumstances, the equity structure has been restated in all comparative periods up to the Closing Date, to reflect the number of shares issued to Apache in connection with the recapitalization transaction. The value allocated to the shares issued to Apache reflects the capital structure of the Altus Midstream Entities prior to the Business Combination, which solely comprised capital contributions from Apache. Accordingly, shares of common stock issued to Apache in exchange for its ownership interests in the Altus Midstream Entities are retroactively restated from May 26, 2016 (inception), proportionate to the capital contributions made by Apache to the Altus Midstream Entities up to the Closing Date.
