FEDERAL ROYALTY RECOVERY

In July 2017, we received a federal royalty recovery totaling $14.1 million as part of a multi-year federal royalty refund claim. Approximately $9.6 million of the refund was recognized as other operational income and $4.5 million as a reduction of lease operating expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2017 (Successor). Included in SG&A expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2017 (Successor) is a $3.9 million success-based consulting fee incurred in connection with the federal royalty recovery.
