The public offering price for each share of common stock is $1.63.

to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company also granted the Underwriters an option for a period of 30 days to purchase up to an additional 750,000 shares. The Offering is registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), to a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-221370), which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 15, 2017.

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and agreements of the parties, and customary conditions to closing, obligations of the parties, and termination provisions. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to contribute to payments the Underwriters may be required to make in respect of those liabilities.

The offering is expected to close on September 1, 2020, subject to customary closing conditions. The Company will receive proceeds (net of the underwriting discount and offering expenses) from the offering of approximately $7.2 million. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to fund the cash portion of the previously disclosed pending acquisitions of certain mineral and royalty assets in the SCOOP and Haynesville plays (the “Acquisitions”), to pay fees and expenses related thereto and for general corporate purposes. The offering is not conditioned on the consummation of the Acquisitions.

On August 31, 2020, the Underwriters exercised their over-allotment option in full. The Company estimates the total net proceeds (after deducting the underwriting discount and offering expenses) from the offering, including the proceeds attributable to the exercise of the over-allotment option, to be approximately $8.32 million.
