SilverBow Resources Extends Stockholder Rights Plan

SilverBow Resources, Inc. (NYSE: SBOW) (“SilverBow” or the “Company”) today announced that its Board of Directors (the “Board”) has unanimously approved an amendment to the Company's existing stockholder rights plan (the “Rights Plan”), pursuant to which the expiration date has been extended from today to the close of business on the first day following the date of the Company’s 2024 annual meeting of stockholders, which is currently expected to be held on Tuesday, May 21, 2024, unless the rights are earlier redeemed or exchanged. All other terms and conditions of the Rights Plan adopted in September 2022 remain unchanged.

SilverBow’s Board is committed to acting in the best interests of all of the Company’s stockholders. In September 2022, the Board adopted the Rights Plan in response to significant accumulations of portions of SilverBow outstanding common stock by a third party. The Rights Plan is designed to enable all stockholders to realize the value of their investment and to promote the fair and equal treatment of all stockholders. In approving the extension, the Board evaluated the continued risk for a single stockholder or group of stockholders to make efforts to obtain control of the Company without paying a control premium.

The Board may consider an earlier termination of the Rights Plan if market and other conditions warrant.

Additional details regarding the amendment to the Rights Plan will be contained in a Form 8-K to be filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission along with a copy of the amendment to the Rights Plan.
