Acquisitions and Dispositions Acquisitions and Dispositions
Bay De Chene Disposition
Effective December 22, 2017, the Company closed a purchase and sale contract to sell the Company's wellbores and facilities in Bay De Chene and recorded a $16.3 million obligation related to the funding of certain plugging and abandonment costs. Of the $16.3 million original obligation, $0.8 million and $1.1 million was paid during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. There is no remaining obligation under this contract as of December 31, 2022.

August 2021 Acquisition
On August 3, 2021, the Company acquired the remaining working interest in 12 wells that SilverBow operates and additional acreage in Webb County. The total aggregate consideration was approximately $23.0 million, consisting of $13.0 million in cash and 516,675 shares of common stock valued at approximately $10.0 million based on the Company's share price on the closing date. Management determined that substantially all the fair value of the gross assets acquired were concentrated in the proved oil and gas properties and have therefore accounted for this transaction as an asset acquisition and allocated the purchase price based on the relative fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

October 2021 Acquisition
On October 1, 2021, we closed on an all-stock transaction to acquire oil and gas assets in the Eagle Ford. The acquired assets include working interests in oil and gas properties across Atascosa, Fayette, Lavaca, McMullen and Live Oak counties. After consideration of closing adjustments, we issued 1,341,990 shares of our common stock valued at approximately $35.6 million, based on the Company's share price on the closing date. The acquisition was subject to further customary post-closing adjustments. We incurred approximately $0.6 million in transaction costs for the year ended December 31, 2021. Management determined that substantially all the fair value of the gross assets acquired were concentrated in the proved oil and gas properties and have therefore accounted for this transaction as an asset acquisition and allocated the purchase price based on
the relative fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. As part of the post-closing settlement of this acquisition, during the year ended December 31, 2022 we issued 489 new shares and received 41,375 shares back into treasury stock.

November 2021 Acquisition
On November 19, 2021, the Company closed on an acquisition of oil-weighted assets in the Eagle Ford. The acquired assets included wells and acreage in La Salle, McMullen, DeWitt and Lavaca counties. After consideration of closing adjustments, total aggregate consideration was approximately $77.4 million, consisting of $37.6 million in cash, 1,351,961 shares of our common stock valued at approximately $37.9 million based on the Company's share price on the closing date, and contingent consideration with an estimated fair value of $1.9 million. The contingent consideration consists of up to three earn-out payments of $1.6 million per year for each of 2022, 2023 and 2024, contingent upon the average monthly settlement price of WTI exceeding $70 per barrel for such year (the “2021 WTI Contingency Payout”). During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded losses of $1.2 million, related to the 2021 WTI Contingency Payout recorded in “Gain (loss) on commodity derivatives, net” on the consolidated statements of operation and recorded $1.6 million in earn-out consideration payable to the seller related to the 2022 calendar year in “Accounts payable and accrued liabilities” on the consolidated balance sheets. For further discussion of the fair value related to the Company's contingent consideration, refer to Note 10 of these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. We incurred approximately $0.3 million in transaction costs for the year ended December 31, 2021. Management determined that substantially all the fair value of the gross assets acquired were concentrated in the proved oil and gas properties and have therefore accounted for this transaction as an asset acquisition and allocated the purchase price based on the relative fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

May 2022 Acquisition
On May 10, 2022, the Company closed the acquisition of certain oil and gas assets located in La Salle and McMullen Counties, Texas, as well as assumed the seller's commodity derivative contracts in place at the closing date, from SandPoint Operating, LLC, a subsidiary of SandPoint Resources, LLC (collectively, “SandPoint”). After consideration of closing adjustments, total aggregate consideration was approximately $67.5 million, consisting of $27.7 million in cash and 1,300,000 shares of our common stock valued at approximately $39.8 million based on the Company's share price on the closing date. We incurred approximately $0.5 million in transaction costs during the year ended December 31, 2022 related to the acquisition. Management determined that substantially all the fair value of the gross assets acquired were concentrated in the proved oil and gas properties and have therefore accounted for this transaction as an asset acquisition and allocated the purchase price based on the relative fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

The contingent consideration consists of up to two earn-out payments of $7.5 million each, contingent upon the average monthly settlement price of NYMEX West Texas Intermediate crude oil exceeding $95 per barrel for the period from April 13, 2022 through December 31, 2022 which would trigger a payment of $7.5 million in 2023 and $85 per barrel for 2023 which would trigger a payment of $7.5 million in 2024 (the “2022 WTI Contingency Payout”). The contingent payout for the period of April 13, 2022 through December 31, 2022 did not materialize.
