Virginia Energy was significant under Rule 3-09 for the year ended December 31, 2021, but not for the years ended December 31, 2022 or 2020.

Except as otherwise expressly noted, this Amendment does not modify or update in any way (i) the consolidated financial position, the results of operations or cash flows of the Company, or (ii) the disclosures in or exhibits to the Form 10-K; nor does it reflect events occurring after the filing of the Form 10-K. Among other things, forward-looking statements made in the Form 10-K have not been revised to reflect events that occurred or facts that became known to us after the filing of the Form 10-K, and such forward-looking statements should be read in their historical context. Furthermore, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Form 10-K and any subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
