Brigham Merger

In December 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of approximately 86,500 NRAs in the Delaware and Midland Basin in West Texas and New Mexico, the SCOOP and STACK plays in the Anadarko Basin of Oklahoma, the DJ Basin Colorado and Wyoming and the Williston Basin in North Dakota from Brigham Minerals. At closing, subject to the terms and conditions of the Brigham Merger Agreement, provides for the acquisition of Brigham by Former Sitio in an all-stock transaction through: (i) the merger of Brigham Merger Sub with and into Brigham (the “Brigham Merger”), with Brigham surviving the Brigham Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of New Sitio, (ii) the merger of Sitio Merger Sub with and into Former Sitio (the “Sitio Merger”), with Former Sitio surviving the Sitio Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of New Sitio, and (iii) the merger of Opco Merger Sub LLC with and into Brigham Opco (the “Opco Merger,” and, together with the Brigham Merger and the Sitio Merger, the “Mergers”), with Brigham Opco surviving the Opco Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Opco LP, in each case on the terms set forth in the Brigham Merger Agreement.

Pursuant to the Brigham Merger Agreement, at closing each share of Brigham’s Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time was converted into 1.133 fully-paid and nonassessable shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of New Sitio (the “New Sitio Class A Common Stock”), (B) each share of Brigham’s Class B common stock, par value $0.01 per share, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time was converted into 1.133 fully-paid and nonassessable shares of Class C Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of New Sitio (the “New Sitio Class C Common Stock”), (C) each share of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time was converted into one share of New Sitio Class A Common Stock and (D) each share of Class C Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time, was converted into one share of New Sitio Class C Common Stock, in each case, excluding shares owned by Sitio, Brigham or any wholly owned subsidiary of Sitio or Brigham and, to the extent applicable, shares owned by stockholders who have perfected and not withdrawn a demand for appraisal rights pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) and, (ii) at the Second Effective Time, each Brigham Opco Unit issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Second Effective Time was converted into 1.133 Sitio OpCo Partnership Units. No fractional shares were outstanding following the conversion.

As a result of the Brigham Merger and as of the closing of the Brigham Merger (the “Brigham Closing”), Sitio stockholders immediately prior to the First Effective Time owned approximately 54% of the outstanding shares of New Sitio, and Brigham

stockholders immediately prior to the First Effective Time own approximately 46% of the outstanding shares of New Sitio. Following the Closing, New Sitio operates under the name “Sitio Royalties Corp.”

The Brigham Merger was accounted for as a business combination and, therefore, the acquired interests were recorded based on the fair value of the total assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the acquisition date.

Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation

The Brigham Merger was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method. The Company completed the determination of the fair value attributable to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the fair value at the acquisition date. Certain data necessary to complete the purchase price allocation is subject to change, and includes, but is not limited to, settlement of pre-acquisition working capital balances and assessments of deferred tax assets and liabilities acquired. We expect to complete the purchase price allocation during the 12-month period following the acquisition date, during which time the value of the assets and liabilities may be revised as appropriate.

The following table presents the preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed on December 29, 2022 (in thousands):

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information is for informational purposes only and is not intended to represent or to be indicative of the combined results of operations that the Company would have reported had the Falcon Merger and Brigham Merger been completed as of January 1, 2021 and should not be taken as indicative of the Company’s future combined results of operations. The actual results may differ significantly from that reflected in the unaudited pro forma combined financial information for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to, differences in assumptions used to prepare the unaudited pro forma combined financial information and actual results.
