Forward Looking Statements

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 including, but not limited to, ROCL’s and NEH’s expectations or predictions of future financial or business performance or conditions. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Generally, statements that are not historical facts, including statements concerning possible or assumed future actions, business strategies, events or results of operations, are forward-looking statements. These statements may be preceded by, followed by or include the words “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “projects,” “forecasts,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “plans,” “scheduled,” “anticipates” “intends,” or similar expressions. Such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause actual events, results or performance to differ materially from those indicated by such statements. Certain of these risks are identified and discussed in ROCL’s final prospectus for its initial public offering, filed with the SEC on December 2, 2021, under the heading “Risk Factors.” These risk factors will be important to consider in determining future results and should be reviewed in their entirety. These forward-looking statements are expressed in good faith, and ROCL and NEH believe there is a reasonable basis for them. However, there can be no assurance that the events, results or trends identified in these forward-looking statements will occur or be achieved. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and neither ROCL nor NEH is under any obligation, and expressly disclaim any obligation, to update, alter or otherwise revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

 

In addition to factors previously disclosed in ROCL’s reports filed with the SEC and those identified elsewhere in this Current Report on Form 8-K, the following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements or historical performance: (i) expectations regarding NEH’s strategies and future financial performance, including its future business plans or objectives, prospective performance and opportunities and competitors, revenues, products and services, pricing, operating expenses, market trends, liquidity, cash flows and uses of cash, capital expenditures, and NEH’s ability to invest in growth initiatives and pursue acquisition opportunities; (ii) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement; (iii) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against ROCL or NEH following announcement of the Proposed Business Combination and the transactions contemplated thereby; (iv) the inability to complete the Proposed Business Combination due to, among other things, the failure to obtain ROCL stockholder approval on the expected terms and schedule, as well as the risk that regulatory approvals required for the Proposed Business Combination are not obtained or are obtained subject to conditions that are not anticipated; (v) the failure to meet the minimum cash requirements of the Merger Agreement due to ROCL stockholder redemptions and the failure to obtain replacement financing; the inability to complete the concurrent PIPE, (vi) the risk that the Proposed Business Combination or another business combination may not be completed by ROCL’s business combination deadline and the potential failure to obtain an extension of the business combination deadline; (vii) the risk that the announcement and consummation of the Proposed Business Combination disrupts NEH’s current operations and future plans; (viii) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Proposed Business Combination; (ix) unexpected costs related to the Proposed Business Combination; (x) the amount of any redemptions by existing holders of the ROCL Common Stock being greater than expected; (xi) limited liquidity and trading of ROCL’s securities; (xii) geopolitical risk and changes in applicable laws or regulations; (xii) the possibility that ROCL and/or NEH may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; (xiv) operational risk; (xv) risk that the COVID-19 pandemic, and local, state, and federal responses to addressing the pandemic may have an adverse effect on our business operations, as well as our financial condition and results of operations; and (xvi) the risks that the consummation of the Proposed Business Combination is substantially delayed or does not occur.

Any financial projections in this Current Report on Form 8-K are forward-looking statements that are based on assumptions that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond ROCL’s and NEH’s control. While all projections are necessarily speculative, ROCL and NEH believe that the preparation of prospective financial information involves increasingly higher levels of uncertainty the further out the projection extends from the date of preparation. The assumptions and estimates underlying the projected results are inherently uncertain and are subject to a wide variety of significant business, economic and competitive risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the projections. The inclusion of projections in this Current Report on Form 8-K should not be regarded as an indication that ROCL and NEH, or their representatives, considered or consider the projections to be a reliable prediction of future events.

 

Annualized, pro forma, projected and estimated numbers are used for illustrative purpose only, are not forecasts and may not reflect actual results.

 

The foregoing list of factors is not intended to be all-inclusive or to contain all the information that a person may desire in considering an investment in ROCL and is not intended to form the basis of an investment decision in ROCL. Readers should carefully review the foregoing factors and other risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors” section of the Registration Statement and the other reports, which ROCL has filed or will file from time to time with the SEC. There may be additional risks that neither ROCL nor NEH presently know, or that ROCL and NEH currently believe are immaterial, that could cause actual results to differ from those contained in forward looking statements. For these reasons, among others, investors and other interested persons are cautioned not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning ROCL and NEH, the Proposed Business Combination or other matters and attributable to ROCL and NEH or any person acting on their behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements above.

 

Participants in the Solicitation

 

ROCL, NEH and their respective directors and executive officers may be considered participants in the solicitation of proxies with respect to the Proposed Business Combination described herein under the rules of the SEC. Information about such persons and a description of their interests will be contained in the Registration Statement when it is filed with the SEC. These documents can be obtained free of charge from the sources indicated above.

 

No Offer or Solicitation

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute a proxy statement or solicitation of a proxy, consent, vote or authorization with respect to any securities or in respect of the Proposed Business Combination and shall not constitute an offer to sell or exchange, or a solicitation of an offer to buy or exchange any securities, nor shall there be any sale, issuance or transfer of any such securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state or jurisdiction. No offer of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or an exemption therefrom.

Forward - looking statements are inherently subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions . Generally, statements that are not historical facts, including statements concerning possible or assumed future actions, business strategies, events or results of operations, are forward - looking statements . These statements may be preceded by, followed by or include the words “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “projects,” “forecasts,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “plans,” “scheduled,” “anticipates,” “intends,” or similar expressions . Such forward - looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause actual events, results or performance to differ materially from those indicated by such statements . Certain of these risks are identified and discussed in ROCL’s final prospectus for its initial public offering, filed with the SEC on December 2 , 2021 , under the heading “Risk Factors . ” These risk factors will be important to consider in determining future results and should be reviewed in their entirety . These forward - looking statements are expressed in good faith, and ROCL and New Era believe there is a reasonable basis for them . However, there can be no assurance that the events, results or trends identified in these forward - looking statements will occur or be achieved . Forward - looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and neither ROCL nor New Era is under any obligation, and expressly disclaim any obligation, to update, alter or otherwise revise any forward - looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law . In addition to factors previously disclosed in ROCL’s reports filed with the SEC and those identified elsewhere in this Presentation, the following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from forward - looking statements or historical performance : (i) expectations regarding New Era’s strategies and future financial performance, including its future business plans or objectives, prospective performance and opportunities and competitors, revenues, products and services, pricing, operating expenses, market trends, liquidity, cash flows and uses of cash, capital expenditures, and New Era’s ability to invest in growth initiatives and pursue acquisition opportunities ; (ii) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement ; (iii) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against ROCL or New Era following announcement of the Proposed Business Combination and the transactions contemplated thereby ; (iv) the inability to complete the Proposed Business Combination due to, among other things, the failure to obtain ROCL stockholder approval on the expected terms and schedule, as well as the risk that regulatory approvals required for the Proposed Business Combination are not obtained or are obtained subject to conditions that are not anticipated ; (v) the failure to meet the minimum cash requirements of the Merger Agreement due to ROCL stockholder redemptions and the failure to obtain replacement financing ; the inability to complete the concurrent PIPE ; (vi) the risk that the Proposed Business Combination or another business combination may not be completed by ROCL’s business combination deadline and the potential failure to obtain an extension of the business combination deadline ; (vii) the risk that the announcement and consummation of the Proposed Business Combination disrupts New Era’s current operations and future plans ; (viii) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Proposed Business Combination ; (ix) unexpected costs related to the Proposed Business Combination ; (x) the amount of any redemptions by existing holders of the ROCL common stock being greater than expected ; (xi) limited liquidity and trading of ROCL’s securities ; (xii) the inability to obtain or maintain the listing of the combined company’s common stock on Nasdaq following the Proposed Business Combination, including but not limited to the failure to meet Nasdaq’s initial listing standards in connection with the consummation of the Proposed Business Combination ; (xiii) geopolitical risk and changes in applicable laws or regulations ; (xiv) the possibility that ROCL and/or New Era may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors ; (xv) operational risk ; (xvi) risk that the COVID - 19 pandemic, and local, state, and federal responses to addressing the pandemic may have an adverse effect on our business operations, as well as our financial condition and results of operations ; and (xvii) the risks that the consummation of the Proposed Business Combination is substantially delayed or does not occur . Any financial projections in this Presentation are forward - looking statements that are based on assumptions that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond ROCL’s and New Era’s control . While all projections are necessarily speculative, ROCL and New Era believe that the preparation of prospective financial information involves increasingly higher levels of uncertainty the further out the projection extends from the date of preparation . The assumptions and estimates underlying the projected results are inherently uncertain and are subject to a wide variety of significant business, economic and competitive risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the projections . The inclusion of projections in this Presentation should not be regarded as an indication that ROCL and New Era, or their representatives, considered or consider the projections to be a reliable prediction of future events . Annualized, pro forma, projected and estimated numbers are used for illustrative purpose only, are not forecasts and may not reflect actual results . The foregoing list of factors is not intended to be all - inclusive or to contain all the information that a person may desire in considering an investment in ROCL and is not intended to form the basis of an investment decision in ROCL . Readers should carefully review the foregoing factors and other risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors” section of the Registration Statement and the other reports, which ROCL has filed or will file from time to time with the SEC . There may be additional risks that neither ROCL nor New Era presently know, or that ROCL and New Era currently believe are immaterial, that could cause actual results to differ from those contained in forward looking statements . For these reasons, among others, investors and other interested persons are cautioned not to place undue reliance upon any forward - looking statements in this Presentation. All subsequent written and oral forward - looking statements concerning ROCL and New Era, the Proposed Business 4 Combination or other matters and attributable to ROCL and New Era or any person acting on their behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements above.

27 Financial Summary Revenue ($000’s) Daily Production (Net MCFE/D) ▪ Estimated completion of the Pecos Slope Plant in late Q4 2024 ▪ Optionality on revenues is mainly attributable to Natural Gas and NGLs since Helium has fixed long - term pricing. ▪ The Company reaches 20 MMCF/D gross plant throughput by Early Q3 2025. (1) Adjusted Operating Netback is a non - GAAP measure. New Era Helium defines Adjusted Operating Netback as net revenue less lease operating expenses, production & ad valorem taxes, and cash general administrative expenses. In the case of non - GAAP financial measures presented for future periods, New Era Helium advises that it is unable to provide reconciliations of such measures without unreasonable efforts.

* The revenues and costs related to Helium is not compliant with the SEC requirements

 

While the oil and gas industry may be subject to regulatory changes from time to time that could affect an industry participant’s ability to recover its reserves, we are not aware of any such governmental actions which would restrict the recovery of the July 1, 2023 estimated reserves.

 

Primary Economic Assumptions

 

Values of proved, probable, and possible reserves in this report are expressed in terms of estimated future gross revenue, future net revenue, and present worth. Future gross revenue is that revenue which will accrue to the evaluated interests from the production and sale of the estimated net reserves. Future net revenue is calculated by deducting estimated production taxes, ad valorem taxes, operating expenses, capital costs, and abandonment costs from the future gross revenue. Operating expenses include field operating expenses, transportation expenses, compression charges, and an allocation of overhead that directly relates to production activities. Future income tax expenses were not taken into account in the preparation of these estimates. Present worth of future net revenue is calculated by discounting the future net revenue at the arbitrary rate of 10 percent per year compounded annually over the expected period of realization. Present worth should not be construed as fair market value because no consideration was given to additional factors that influence the prices at which properties are bought and sold.

Future prices were estimated using guidelines established by the SEC and the Financial Account Standards Board (FASB). The assumptions used for estimating future prices and expense are as follows:

 

Gas Prices

 

Gas price differentials were calculated for each property based on prices received by Solis. The prices were calculated using these differentials to a Henry Hub price of $4.763 per million British thermal units (MMBtu) and were held constant for the lives of the properties. The Henry Hub gas price of $4.763 per MMBtu is the 12-month average price calculated as the unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month price for each of the last six months of 2022 and the first six months of 2023. British thermal unit factors were provided by Solis and used to convert prices from dollars per MMBtu to dollars per thousand cubic feet ($/Mcf). A gas price of $3.88 per thousand cubic feet of gas was used from July 2023 through July 2024. The volume-weighted average product price over the life of the properties was $3.57 per thousand cubic feet of gas.

 

Helium Prices

 

Helium price differentials were calculated for each property based on prices received by Solis. The prices were calculated using these differentials to a Helium price of $450.00 per thousand cubic feet ($/Mcf) and were held constant for the lives of the properties. The volume-weighted average product price over the life of the properties was $450.00 per thousand cubic feet of gas.

 

Natural Gas Liquid Prices

 

Natural Gas Liquid (NGL) price differentials were calculated for each property based on prices received by Solis. The prices were calculated using these differentials to a posted West Texas Intermediate (WTI) at Cushing of $82.817 per barrel and were held constant for the lives of the properties. The WTI oil price of $82.817 per barrel is the 12-month average price calculated as the unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month price for each of the last six months of 2022 and the first six months of 2023. The volume-weighted average product price over the life of the properties was $33.13 per barrel of oil.

 

Oil and Condensate Prices

 

Oil and condensate price differentials were calculated for each property based on prices received by Solis. The prices were calculated using these differentials to a posted West Texas Intermediate (WTI) at Cushing price of $82.82 per barrel and were held constant for the lives of the properties. The WTI oil price of $82.82 per barrel is the 12-month average price calculated as the unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month price for each of the last six months of 2022 and the first six months of 2023. The volume-weighted average product price over the life of the properties was $82.82 per barrel of oil.

Production and Ad Valorem taxes

 

Production taxes were calculated using the tax rates for the state in which the property is located. Ad valorem taxes were calculated using average rates for each county in which the property is located.

 

Operating Expenses, Capital Costs and Abandonment Costs

 

Operating costs were based on operating expense records of Solis Partners, LLC and based on current expenses, were held constant for the lives of the properties. Development costs were furnished to us by Solis and are based on authorization for expenditures for the proposed work or actual costs of similar projects. The development costs furnished to us were accepted as factual data and reviewed by MKM Engineering for their reasonableness; however, we have not conducted an independent verification of these costs. Capital expenditures for plugging, abandonment, and reclamation of the properties at the end-of-project life were not included in this report.

 

The undeveloped reserves in this report have been incorporated herein in accordance with Solis’s plans to develop these reserves as of July 1, 2023. The implementation of Solis’s development plans and budget as presented to us and incorporated herein were approved by Solis’s management. Additionally, Solis has informed MKM Engineering that they are not aware of any legal, regulatory or political obstacles that would significantly alter the development plans.

 

The proved, probable, and possible reserve classifications conform to criteria of the Securities and Exchange Commission, except where noted. Reserves are judged to be economically producible in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions and assuming continuation of current regulatory practices using conventional production methods and equipment. In the analyses of production decline curves, reserves were estimated only to the limit of economic rates of production under existing economic and operating conditions using prices and costs consistent with the effective date of this report, including consideration of changes in existing prices provided only by contractual arrangement but not including escalations based on future conditions. The reserves and economics are predicted on the regulatory agency classifications, rules, policies, laws, taxes, and royalties in effect on the date of this report except as noted herein. In evaluating the information at our disposal concerning this report, we have excluded from our consideration all matters as to which the controlling interpretation may be legal or accounting, rather than engineering and geosciences. Therefore, the possible effects of changes in legislation or other Federal or State restrictive actions have not been considered. An on-site field inspection of these properties has not been made nor have the wells been tested by MKM Engineering. Possible environmental liability related to the properties has not been investigated nor considered.

Methodology and Procedures

 

The reserves were estimated using a combination of the production performance, volumetric, and analogy methods, in each case as we considered to be appropriate and necessary to establish the conclusions set forth herein. All reserve estimates represent our best judgment based on data available at the time of preparation and assumptions as to future economic and regulatory conditions. It should be realized that the reserves actually recovered, the revenue derived therefrom, and the actual cost incurred could be more or less than the estimated amounts.

 

The process of estimated reserves is complex. It requires significant judgments and decisions based on available geological, geophysical, engineering, and economic data. These estimates may change substantially as additional data from ongoing development activities and production performance becomes available and as economic conditions impacting oil and gas prices and costs change.

 

For depletion type reservoirs or those whose performance disclosed a reliable decline in producing rate trends or other diagnostic characteristics, reserves were estimated by the application of appropriate decline curves or other performance relationships. In the analyses of production decline curves, reserves were estimated only to the limits of economic production based on existing economic conditions. In certain cases, when the previously named method could not be used, reserves were estimated by analogy with similar wells or reservoirs for which more complex data were available.

 

As circumstances change and additional data become available, reserve estimates also change. Estimates made are reviewed and revised, either upward or downward, as warranted by the new information. Revisions are often required due to changes in well performance, prices, economic conditions, and governmental restrictions.

 

Although every reasonable effort is made to ensure that reserve estimates are accurate, reserve estimation is an inferential science. As a result, the subjective decisions, new geological or production information, and a changing environment may impact these estimates. Revisions to reserve estimates can arise from changes in year-end oil and gas prices, and reservoir performance. Such revisions can be positive or negative.

 

Gas reserves estimated herein are expressed as sales gas. Sales gas is defined as the total gas to be produced from the reservoirs, measured at the point of delivery, after reduction for fuel use and shrinkage resulting from the field separation and processing. Gas reserves are expressed at a temperature base of 60 degrees Fahrenheit and at the pressure base of the state in which the resources are located. Gas reserves included herein are expressed in thousands of cubic feet (Mcf). Oil and condensate reserves estimated herein are those to be recovered by conventional lease separation. Natural Gas Liquids reserves included in this report are expressed in barrels (bbl) representing 42 United States gallons per barrel.
