Non-Compete Agreement

On the Closing Date, the Company and EnerVest, separate and apart from the Business Combination, entered into the Non-Compete, which prohibits EnerVest and certain of its affiliates from competing with the Company in the Eagle Ford Shale (the “Market Area”) until the later of July 31, 2022 or the date the Services Agreement is terminated. Under the Non-Compete, an affiliate of EnerVest will have the right to receive 4.0 million shares of Class A Common Stock in two tranches of 2.0 million shares in two and one half and four years from the Closing Date provided EnerVest does not compete in the Market Area.

The Company recorded an estimated cost of $44.4 million for the Non-Compete as intangible assets on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. These intangible assets have a definite life and are subject to amortization utilizing the straight-line method over their economic life, currently estimated to be two and one half to four years. The Company includes the amortization in “Amortization of intangible assets” on the Company’s consolidated and combined statements of operations.
