Estimated solely for purposes of calculating the filing fee pursuant to Rule 0-11(d) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The transaction value calculation does not take into account the effect of any cash received or deemed received by Goodrich Petroleum Corporation (“Goodrich”) in connection with the exercise of any outstanding equity awards. The transaction value was determined by multiplying (a) $23.00, the tender offer price per Share (as defined below), by (b) the sum of (i) 14,387,069 outstanding Shares, (ii) 511,624 Shares to be issued upon exercise of certain outstanding warrants, (iii) 1,534,563 Shares to be issued upon conversion of the outstanding 13.50% convertible second lien senior secured notes due 2023 and (iv) 503,439 Shares to be issued under the Goodrich Equity Plan. The foregoing figures have been provided by the issuer to the offerors and are as of November 17, 2021, the most recent practicable date.
**
The filing fee was calculated in accordance with Rule 0-11 under the Exchange Act and Fee Rate Advisory No. 1 for Fiscal Year 2022, issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 23, 2021, by multiplying the transaction value by 0.0000927.
