During 2022, approximately 59 wells were completed on royalty lands. The land base has a potential inventory of 464 future well locations 4 implying approximately eight years of additional drilling (based on the prior year drilling rate), followed by many years of production over the life of the wells. The royalties also provide development potential in the Cotton Valley formation, which may be further exploited in the future. The Haynesville portfolio has performed well since acquisition benefitting from robust activity levels and favorable realized gas prices.

The Haynesville is currently one of the most active natural gas plays in North America, owing to its strong well performance and close proximity to infrastructure along the U.S. Gulf Coast, which reduces transportation costs. The royalties consist of approximately 2,701 acres of mineral rights (net to Franco-Nevada), located in Harrison and Panola counties and provide a perpetual interest in land. The royalty position is situated in a core area of the East Texas portion of the Haynesville, which represents a shallower part of the basin where the producing formation is thickest. The portfolio was originally assembled in strategic partnership with Rockcliff Energy II LLC (“Rockcliff”), which allowed for acreage to be selected on the basis of geologic quality as well as prioritization under the company’s drilling schedule. Approximately 75% of the royalty position is operated by Rockcliff, who has been a leading the most active operator in the East Texas Haynesville. Rockcliff Energy drill rig, East Texas
