Share-based Compensation Expense, net

Share-based compensation expense associated with RSUs, PSUs and Series B Units are reflected as “General and administrative expense,” in the condensed consolidated statements of operations, net amounts capitalized to “Proved Properties,” in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Because of the non-cash nature of share-based compensation, the expensed portion of share-based compensation is added back to net income in arriving at “Net cash provided by operating activities” in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

The Company recognized the following share-based compensation expense, net for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 (in thousands):
