On October 5, 2021, pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 10, 2021 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and between Lonestar and Penn Virginia Corporation, a Virginia corporation (“Penn Virginia”), Upsilon Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned, direct subsidiary of Penn Virginia (“Merger Sub Inc.”), was merged with and into Lonestar (the “First Merger”), with Lonestar continuing as the surviving corporation in the First Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”), and, immediately following the First Merger, the Surviving Corporation was merged with and into the Company, a wholly-owned, subsidiary of Penn Virginia (such merger, the “Second Merger”), as a result of which Lonestar became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

As a result of the completion of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Company has terminated all offerings of shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Registration Statement. In accordance with the undertaking made by the Company in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any of the securities that had been registered for issuance that remain unsold at the termination of such offering, the Company hereby removes from registration by means of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 all shares of Common Stock registered but unsold under the Registration Statement. The Registration Statement is hereby amended, as appropriate, to reflect the deregistration of such shares of Common Stock and the Company hereby terminates the effectiveness of the Registration Statement.
