−Removed: Since the beginning of 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has spread across the globe and disrupted economies around the world, including the oil, natural gas and NGL industry.
−Removed: The rapid spread of the virus has led to the implementation of various responses, including federal, state and local government-imposed quarantines, shelter-in-place mandates, sweeping restrictions on travel, and other public health and safety measures, nearly all of which have materially reduced global demand for crude oil and natural gas.
−Removed: The extent to which the global COVID-19 pandemic will continue to affect the Royalty Trust's business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, and the demand for HOGA's production will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration or any recurrence of the outbreak and responsive measures, additional or modified government actions, new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the global COVID-19 pandemic and the effectiveness of actions taken to contain the coronavirus or treat its impact now or in the future, among others.

−Removed: • increased operational difficulties associated with, or an inability to, deliver gas to end-markets, resulting from pipeline and storage constraints;
−Removed: • the potential for loss of leasehold or asset value for failure to produce gas in paying quantities as a result of significantly lower commodity prices, or other factors related to the misalignment of supply and demand;
−Removed: • increased third-party credit risk, including the risk that counterparties may not accept the delivery of gas production, resulting from adverse market conditions, a lack of access to capital and storage, and the failure of certain counterparties to continue as going concerns;
−Removed: • increased likelihood that counterparties to existing agreements may seek to invoke force majeure provisions to avoid the performance of contractual obligations, resulting from significantly adverse market conditions;
−Removed: • increased costs and staffing requirements related to social distancing measures or other best practices implemented in connection with federal, state or local government, and voluntarily imposed quarantines or other regulations or guidelines concerning physical gatherings;

−Removed: Any such future developments are dependent upon factors including, but are not limited to, the duration and spread of the outbreak, its severity, any recurrence of the outbreak, the actions to contain the virus or treat its impact, the size and effectiveness of the compensating measures taken by governments, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume.
