Item 4.

PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

Each of the Reporting Persons was formed to facilitate a restructuring of the Issuer pursuant to the terms of a transaction support agreement (together with all exhibits, annexes and schedules thereto, the “Original TSA”), dated as of December 5, 2022, between (i) the Issuer, (ii) holders of the Issuer’s outstanding senior secured notes (the “Senior Secured Notes”) issued under that certain Indenture, dated as of October 14, 2016 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Senior Secured Notes Indenture”), by and among the Issuer, the guarantors party thereto, and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee, representing all holders of the Senior Secured Notes and (iii) holders of the Issuer’s convertible notes (the “Convertible Notes”) issued under that


CUSIP No. G73268149				Page 7 of 13

certain Indenture, dated as of May 26, 2021 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Convertible Notes Indenture”), by and among the Issuer, the guarantors party thereto, and Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, as trustee, representing more than 99% of all holders of the Convertible Notes (such holders of the Senior Secured Notes and Convertible Notes, collectively, the “Consenting Noteholders”), and (iii) the guarantors party to the Senior Secured Notes Indenture and the Convertible Notes Indenture, whereby the Consenting Noteholders agreed to support a restructuring of the Issuer’s balance sheet. The Original TSA was amended and restated on January 9, 2023 (the “A&R TSA”) to update and modify certain steps effectuating the transactions pursuant to which the Issuer underwent a comprehensive restructuring of its balance sheet (collectively, the “Transactions”).

In accordance with the terms of the A&R TSA, on January 9, 2023, the holders of Convertible Notes transferred an aggregate of $2,493,750 Convertible Notes to Newco in exchange for equity purchase rights of Newco. The Omnibus Transaction Agreement required that the transferred Convertible Notes then be immediately transferred from NewCo to Finance Co. in exchange for equity of Finance Co., a portion thereof be transferred from Finance Co. to Merger Co in exchange for equity of Merger Co., and then from Finance Co. and Merger Co. to the Issuer in exchange for preferred stock of the Issuer to Finance Co. and Merger Co.

On January 10, 2023, in accordance with the A&R TSA, the Issuer filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Court”). On February 15, 2023 the Bankruptcy Court confirmed the Issuer’s plan of reorganization (the “Bankruptcy Plan”) and on February 16, 2023, and in accordance with the terms of the Bankruptcy Plan, (i) the Issuer, Newco, Finance Co., GP, Merger Co, each direct and indirect subsidiary of the Issuer and the Consenting Noteholders entered into a Master Transaction Agreement (the “Master Transaction Agreement”), (ii) the Issuer, Newco and Finance Co entered into a Business and Asset Transfer Agreement (the “BTA”), (iii) the Issuer effected the transactions contemplated by the Master Transaction Agreement and the BTA and emerged from bankruptcy protection, and (iv) the Bankruptcy Plan went effective.

Pursuant to the A&R TSA, Bankruptcy Plan, the Master Transaction Agreement and the BTA, on February 16, 2023, a series of transactions occurred which resulted in the Convertible Notes and Senior Secured Notes being transferred to Merger Co and Finance Co and then immediately to the Issuer and extinguished and the Issuer issuing 13,020,000 Ordinary Shares to Finance Co and 4,000,000 Ordinary Shares to Merger Co, resulting in Newco indirectly owning approximately 81% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares of the Issuer, and all of the subsidiaries of the Issuer becoming indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of Newco. The limited partnership interests in Newco are held by certain of the Consenting Noteholders. The A&R TSA, Bankruptcy Plan, and Master Transaction Agreement further provide that as soon as practicable following the effective date, the Issuer, Finance Co and Merger Co will enter into a merger agreement that will result in the Issuer merging with Merger Co and becoming a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Newco (the “Merger”). The Master Transaction Agreement provides that the parties thereto will cooperate as reasonably necessary or desirable to consummate the Merger as soon as possible. Upon completion of the Merger, the Issuer is expected to terminate the registration of its equity securities under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
