    Based on a combined total of approximately 192,251,097 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer outstanding. This combined total consists of (a) 111,516,601 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding as of July 29, 2024, (b) approximately 51.6 million shares of Class A Common Stock issued in connection with the Transaction and (c) assumes that all 29,134,496 shares of Class B Common Stock beneficially owned by Mr. Roberts, along with an equivalent number of OpCo LLC Units (and no other shares of Class B Common Stock or OpCo LLC Units) were exchanged for newly-issued shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis.

    Explanatory Note

    This Amendment No. 8 (“Amendment No. 8”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 17, 2021, as amended on September 15, 2022, June 6, 2023, July 5, 2023, November 15, 2023, March 11, 2024, April 3, 2024 and May 17, 2024 (as so amended, the “Schedule 13D”) by the Reporting Persons, relating to the shares of Class A Common Stock. The Issuer’s principal executive offices are located at 600 Travis Street, Suite 7200, Houston, Texas 77002. Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 8 does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Schedule 13D. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment No. 8 shall have the same meanings herein as are ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D.

    Item 2. Identity and Background

    Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented to include the following:

    Mr. Dane Holmes serves as an executive officer of KKR Group Holdings Corp.

    Item 5.
    Interest in Securities of the Issuer

    Items 5(a) – 5(b) of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended and restated as follows:

    (a) and (b). The responses of the Reporting Persons to rows 7 through 13 on the cover pages of this Schedule 13D are incorporated by reference herein.

    In connection with the closing of the Mergers (as defined in Item 4 of Amendment No. 7 to the Schedule 13D), the Issuer issued approximately 51.6 million shares of Class A Common Stock to former stockholders and equity award holders of SilverBow Resources, Inc. (the “Transaction”) as reported on the Issuer's Form 10-Q filed on August 5, 2024. The Transaction had a dilutive effect on current stockholders of the Issuer, and accordingly, the percent of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons decreased.

    IE Aggregator holds 29,134,496 shares of Class B Common Stock and the same number of OpCo LLC Units. Upstream holds 572,354 shares of Class A Common Stock. The terms of the OpCo LLC Agreement provide certain holders of the OpCo LLC Units with the right to cause OpCo to acquire all or a portion of the OpCo LLC Units (the “Redemption Right”) for, at OpCo’s election, (a) shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer at a redemption ratio of one share of Class A Common Stock for each OpCo LLC Unit redeemed, together with an equal number of shares of Class B Common Stock (subject to customary conversion rate adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends and reclassification and similar transactions), or (b) cash. As a result, for the purpose of Rule 13d-3 under the Act, each of IE Aggregator and Aggregator GP may be deemed to be the beneficial owners of an aggregate of 29,134,496 shares of Class A Common Stock, which represents approximately 15.2% of the outstanding Class A Common Stock, based on a combined total of approximately 192,251,097 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer outstanding. This combined total consists of (a) 111,516,601 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding as of July 29, 2024, (b) approximately 51.6 million shares of Class A Common Stock issued in connection with the Transaction and (c) assumes that all 29,134,496 shares of Class B Common Stock beneficially owned by IE Aggregator and Aggregator GP, along with an equivalent number of OpCo LLC Units (and no other shares of Class B Common Stock or OpCo LLC Units) were exchanged for newly-issued shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis. In the event that all outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock and OpCo LLC Units were exchanged for shares of Class A Common Stock, IE Aggregator and Aggregator GP would hold approximately 12.7% of the outstanding Class A Common Stock, based on a combined total of approximately 229,064,725 shares of Class A Common Stock.

    Each of Upstream, KKR Group Assets Holdings III L.P., KKR Financial Holdings LLC, KKR Group Assets III GP LLC, KKR Group Partnership L.P., KKR Group Holdings Corp., KKR Group Co. Inc., KKR & Co. Inc., KKR Management LLP, Henry R. Kravis and George R. Roberts (together, the “KKR Group”) may be deemed to be the beneficial owners of an aggregate of 29,706,850 shares of Class A Common Stock under Rule 13d-3 of the Act. The aggregate number of shares of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by the KKR Group represents approximately 15.5% of the outstanding Class A Common Stock, based on a combined total of approximately 192,251,097 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer outstanding. This combined total consists of (a) 111,516,601 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding as of July 29, 2024, (b) approximately 51.6 million shares of Class A Common Stock issued in connection with the Transaction and (c) assumes that all 29,134,496 shares of Class B Common Stock beneficially owned by the KKR Group, along with an equivalent number of OpCo LLC Units (and no other shares of Class B Common Stock or OpCo LLC Units) were exchanged for newly-issued shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis. In the event that all outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock and OpCo LLC Units were exchanged for shares of Class A Common Stock, the KKR Group would hold approximately 13.0% of the outstanding Class A Common Stock, based on a combined total of approximately 229,064,725 shares of Class A Common Stock.

    Each of Aggregator GP (as the general partner of IE Aggregator), Upstream (as the sole member of Aggregator GP), KKR Group Assets Holdings III L.P. and KKR Financial Holdings LLC (as the controlling members of Upstream), KKR Group Assets III GP LLC (as the general partner of KKR Group Assets Holdings III L.P.), KKR Group Partnership L.P. (as the sole member of each of KKR Group Assets III GP LLC and KKR Financial Holdings LLC), KKR Group Holdings Corp. (as the general partner of KKR Group Partnership L.P.), KKR Group Co. Inc. (as the sole shareholder of KKR Group Holdings Corp.), KKR & Co. Inc. (as the sole shareholder of KKR Group Co. Inc.), KKR Management LLP (as the Series I preferred stockholder of KKR & Co. Inc.) and Messrs. Kravis and Roberts (as the founding partners of KKR Management LLP) may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the securities beneficially owned by IE Aggregator. Additionally, each of KKR Group Assets Holdings III L.P. and KKR Financial Holdings LLC (as the controlling members of Upstream), KKR Group Assets III GP LLC (as the general partner of KKR Group Assets Holdings III L.P.), KKR Group Partnership L.P. (as the sole member of each of KKR Group Assets III GP LLC and KKR Financial Holdings LLC), KKR Group Holdings Corp. (as the general partner of KKR Group Partnership L.P.), KKR Group Co. Inc. (as the sole shareholder of KKR Group Holdings Corp.), KKR & Co. Inc. (as the sole shareholder of KKR Group Co. Inc.), KKR Management LLP (as the Series I preferred stockholder of KKR & Co. Inc.) and Messrs. Kravis and Roberts (as the founding partners of KKR Management LLP) may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the securities beneficially owned by Upstream.

    The filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be construed as an admission that any of the above-listed entities or individuals is the beneficial owner of any securities covered by this Schedule 13D.

    To the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, none of the individuals named in Item 2 beneficially owns any shares of Class A Common Stock except as described herein.

    The Reporting Persons and PT Independence Energy Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“PT Independence”) may be deemed to constitute a group for purposes of Section 13(d) due to the terms of the Specified Rights Agreement. However, neither the Reporting Persons nor PT Independence have voting or dispositive power over the other party’s shares of Class A Common Stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of Class A Common Stock, including any OpCo LLC Units or shares of Class B Common Stock. PT Independence has separately filed a Schedule 13D with respect to its interest in the Issuer.


    Item 6.
    Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

    Item 6 is amended and supplemented by adding the following:

    In accordance with its terms, the Management Agreement Amendment became effective upon the closing of the Transaction on July 30, 2024.
