 Act and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. The Complaint alleges, among other things, that the Defendants made materially false and misleading statements related to our business, operations and prospects, including the timing and costs of developing Project Permian. The Plaintiff seeks, among other things, certification of a class, an award of unspecified compensatory damages, interest, costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and expert fees. 

On May 29, 2025, an alleged stockholder of the Company filed a derivative suit on behalf of the Company against our Chief Executive Officer, President and Interim Chief Financial Officer, our former Chief Financial Officer, our former President and Chief Operating Officer and our board of directors in the United States District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina, asserting claims for breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, waste of corporate assets, and violations of federal securities laws (the “Derivative Complaint”).  These claims are predicated on the same allegedly false and misleading statements regarding the time and capital needed to complete Project Permian that are the subject of the Complaint outlined above. 

We intend to vigorously defend against the claims brought in both matters. In light of the complexity and ongoing and uncertain nature of the outstanding proceedings and inquiries, at this time we are unable to estimate a reasonably possible financial loss or range of financial loss, if any, that we may incur to resolve or settle these matters.
