Investors

While the federal securities laws do not prohibit executives from making public comments about a public company’s business, financial condition or results of operations, any statements of executives or board members on behalf of their companies create risks, obligations and potential liability to the company, board and executives under the federal securities laws. To minimize these risks and obligations, the executives and board members of NBH have decided not to make public comments or grant interviews at this time on the advice of legal counsel. NBH will file current and periodic reports on the SEC’s EDGAR system (available at www.sec.gov) containing detailed information about the company, its business, assets, liabilities, risk factors, financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, NBH plans to voluntarily, publicly update investors regarding significant operational and corporate developments. To receive timely emails with respect to these corporate developments, please complete the Email Alert/Investor Form. NBH also plans to provide answers to frequently asked shareholder questions on this investor relations page of NBH’s website.

The Company filed a 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2023. In this 10-K, the Company disclosed its plan for the Company and provided updates regarding its assets. It can be reviewed here: https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1936756/000119983523000181/nbh-10k.htm

No. NBH does not have any current plans to make a dividend or sell its assets. In order to make a dividend, NBH needs to materially increase its net profits or participate in a sale of its assets or other material transaction. NBH is not actively seeking to sell any of its assets and has not received any offers for its assets since the Spin-Off. NBH is focused on increasing the value of its oil and gas properties. As noted in NBH’s latest 10-K filed on May 15, 2023, NBH’s future plan and mission is to safely increase production and cash flow from our oil and natural gas properties which we believe are rich in opportunities through a disciplined allocation of capital and operational management for the benefit of our shareholders. Our business strategy is designed to accomplish this mission by focusing on two key objectives: (1) maximize the value of our assets; and (2) progress our discovered resources into proved reserves, production, and cash flow through efficient appraisal, development and exploitation. NBH believes there are three principal business processes that we must follow to enable our operations to be profitable. Each major business process offers the opportunity for a distinct partner or alliance as we grow. These processes are (i) investment evaluation and review, (ii) operations and field activities, and (iii) administrative and finance management. Please see NBH’s most recent 10-K and other NBH public filings discussing NBH’s business strategy, operations, current projects, and operations on this investor relations page of NBH’s website.

The number of wells that NBH has drilled and their production amounts are disclosed and updated in NBH’s periodic reports on the SEC’s EDGAR system containing detailed information about the company, its business, assets, liabilities, risk factors, financial condition and results of operations.

Yes. Our list of record stockholders on file with AST includes well-known brokers. Under the terms of the Spin-Off, former holders of the MMTLP Series A Preferred Stock received on a one-for-one basis a share of common stock of NBH. The MMTLP Series A Preferred Stock was traded publicly on the OTC. Consequently, many of the beneficial owners of NBH’s common stock received their MMTLP Series A Preferred Stock through trades executed by a broker. Many owners of stock elect to have their brokers hold their stock for them.

Under NBH’s corporate governance documents, NBH’s obligation is to its record stockholders. The list of record stockholders is kept by AST, who serves as NBH’s transfer agent and registrar. When NBH needs to conduct a shareholder vote, NBH will use the record stockholder list and send the requisite information and forms to each record stockholder through a service provider. Some of those record stockholders will be brokers. The brokers will have a duty to communicate to any of their accounts that have beneficial ownership of NBH’s common stock. This is the typical and accepted practice when stock is held in street name.

NBH was a wholly owned subsidiary of Meta. NBH’s business was separately operated within Meta through its consolidated subsidiaries: Torchlight Hazel, LLC, a Texas limited liability company; Hudspeth Oil Corporation, a Texas corporation; Hudspeth Operating, LLC, a Texas limited liability company; and Torchlight Energy, Inc., a Nevada corporation. Each of these subsidiaries is currently a wholly owned subsidiary of NBH. The separation of NBH and its subsidiaries from Meta was effected through a dividend of all of the outstanding shares of common stock of NBH, or the NBH common shares, to the shareholders of Meta’s Series A Non-Voting Preferred Stock on a 1-for-1 basis. For additional information on the separation, see information disclosed under the heading “The Spin-Off” included in the Prospectus which may be obtained at www.sec.gov.

The record date for the spin-off or distribution was December 12, 2022.

The record date establishes who was eligible to receive the NBH common shares on the distribution date, which was December 14, 2022. If a shareholder held its Meta Series A Preferred Stock, or the MMTLP shares, at 5:00 p.m. E.T. on the record date, that shareholder was entitled to receive NBH common shares on a 1-for-1 basis on the distribution date. All MMTLP Series A Preferred Stock has been cancelled.

FINRA halted trading of the MMTLP Series A Preferred Stock prior to the start of the trading day on December 9, 2022. FINRA made an announcement related to its decision which is available on FINRA’s website and available through this link.

The distribution and transfer agent and registrar for the NBH common shares is American Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“AST”). For questions relating to the mechanics of the distribution or matters relating to the subsequent transfer of NBH common shares, you should review the Prospectus available at www.sec.gov and/or contact AST shareholder relations at:
‍
American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC
ATTN: Operations Center, Reorganization Department
6201 15th Avenue
Brooklyn, New York 11219

We expect it will take AST up to two weeks after the December 14, 2022 distribution date to complete the distribution of the NBH common shares. If you are a record holder (on the books of the NBH maintained by AST) of the MMTLP Series A Preferred Stock as of the December 12, 2022 record date, AST will mail statements of holdings to all registered stockholders after the distribution is complete. If you held MMTLP Series A Preferred Stock in “street name” through a broker, bank or other nominee, you should contact your broker or bank directly.

In the Prospectus related to the spin-off, we provided a description of the federal income tax consequences for our shareholders to provide to their tax return preparers regarding the treatment of the spin-off for federal income tax purposes. As noted in this description. each shareholder must apply to themselves a test to determine their own federal income tax consequences related to the spin-off. Further, Meta will provide the former Series A Preferred shareholders a Form 1099 with a valuation of the NBH common stock for your and your tax preparer’s consideration, but we would expect that to be done in conjunction with Meta completing its own corporate tax return at a date later this year. THE EVALUATION OF THE TAX CONSEQUENCES FOR EACH SHAREHOLDER IS EACH SHAREHOLDER’S OWN RESPONSIBILITY, AND ALL SHAREHOLDERS ARE STRONGLY ADVISED TO CONSULT WITH THEIR PROFESSIONAL TAX RETURN PREPARATION ADVISORS OR ACCOUNTANTS RELATED TO THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THEIR OWNERSHIP OF THE SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK IN META, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE SPIN-OFF.

NBH is a private company insofar as its shares of common stock are not traded on a public stock exchange of any kind.

No. AST has issued 165,472,721 shares of NBH’s common stock, and AST has no authorization to issue any more shares than 165,472,721 shares. If a record holder has contacted AST to transfer shares to another party, then such record holder’s number of shares is reduced by the number of shares of transferred to another party. If any party made a claim to allotment to more shares than what it currently owns, it must result from an agreed upon transfer of NBH shares from a record stockholder and such record stockholder’s number of shares would be reduced accordingly.

No. In order to determine who received common stock of NBH, AST followed customary practice and used the list of record holders of MMTLP Series A Preferred Stock as of the 12/12/2022 record date of the Spin-Off. The former holders of MMTLP Series A Preferred Stock were not required to return their shares of the MMTLP Series A Preferred Stock in order to receive common stock of NBH. The shares of the MMTLP Series A Preferred Stock were cancelled per the terms of the Spin-Off. For additional information on the distribution of common shares of NBH and the cancellation of shares of MMTLP Series A Preferred Stock, see information disclosed under the heading “The Spin-Off” included in the Prospectus which may be obtained at www.sec.gov.
