Agreement to Divest Northern West
Quito Assets
On November 25, 2020,
Battalion Oil Corporation (the “Company”), through a wholly-owned subsidiary, as seller, entered into a Purchase
and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Point Energy Partners Operating, LLC (the “Purchaser”)
for the sale of certain oil and gas properties and related assets located in Ward County, Texas (the “North West
Quito Assets”) to the Purchaser for a total purchase price of $27,548,820 (the “Purchase Price”),
subject to customary adjustments as provided in the Purchase Agreement (such sale, the “North West Quito Divestiture”).
The North West Quito Divestiture is expected to close before year-end, with an effective date of October 1, 2020 (the “Effective
Date”). The North West Quito Assets include approximately 3,700 net acres prospective in the Delaware Basin, representing
less than 5% of the Company’s average daily net oil production for the quarter ended September 30, 2020.
The Purchase Price
is subject to customary adjustments as provided in the Purchase Agreement, including for (i) the proration of operating expenses,
capital expenditures and revenues as of the Effective Date, and (ii) the exclusion of certain North West Quito Assets as
a result of such North West Quito Assets being subject to third party consents. Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement,
the Purchaser is required to pay into escrow a deposit totaling $2.0 million contemporaneously with the execution of the Purchase
Agreement, which such amount will be applied to the amount to be paid by Purchaser at closing for the adjusted Purchase Price.
Closing of the North
West Quito Divestiture is subject to the satisfaction of certain customary conditions as provided in the Purchase Agreement. There
can be no assurance that the Company will consummate the North West Quito Divestiture on the terms or timing described above and
by the Purchase Agreement, or at all. Upon closing the North West Quito Divestiture in accordance with the terms of the Purchase
Agreement, the Company intends to use the net proceeds from the North West Quito Divestiture to repay amounts outstanding under
the Company’s revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes, including funding planned drilling expenditures.
The above description
of the Purchase Agreement is a summary only.

Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
