 is not an operator under the subject agreement. There is risk that these parties may at any time have economic, business, or legal interests or goals that are inconsistent with Magnolia’s, and therefore decisions may be made that are not what the Company believes are in its best interest. Moreover, parties to these agreements may be unable or unwilling to meet their economic or other obligations, and Magnolia may be required to fulfill those obligations alone. In either case, the value of Magnolia’s investment may be adversely affected.

Magnolia’s producing properties are predominantly located in South Texas, making Magnolia vulnerable to risks associated with operating in a limited geographic area.

Substantially all of Magnolia’s producing properties are geographically concentrated in South Texas. As a result, Magnolia may be disproportionately exposed to various factors, including, among others: (i) the impact of regional supply and demand factors, (ii) delays or interruptions of production from wells in such areas caused by governmental regulation, (iii) processing or transportation capacity constraints, (iv) market limitations, (v) availability of equipment and personnel, (vi) water shortages or other drought related conditions, or (vii) interruption of the processing or transportation of oil, natural gas, or NGLs. The concentration of Magnolia’s assets

in a limited geographic area also increases its exposure to changes in local laws and regulations, certain lease stipulations designed to protect wildlife and unexpected events that may occur in the region such as natural disasters, severe weather events, seismic events, industrial accidents, or labor difficulties.

The concentration of Magnolia’s producing properties exposes Magnolia to disproportionate and adverse impacts from extreme regional weather events, which could affect the Company’s suppliers or customers. For example, a significant hurricane or similar weather event could damage refining and other oil and natural gas-related facilities on the Gulf Coast, which (if significant enough) could limit the availability of gathering and transportation facilities across Texas and could then cause production in the Eagle Ford Shale and Giddings area (including potentially Magnolia’s production) to be curtailed or shut in or (in the case of natural gas) flared. Any of the above-referenced events could have a material adverse effect on Magnolia. Likewise, a weather event like the severe winter storms in Texas in February 2021 could reduce the availability of electrical power, road accessibility, and transportation facilities, which could have an adverse impact on Magnolia’s production volumes. Any one of these factors has the potential to cause producing wells to
