EXPLANATORY NOTE

DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

These Post-Effective Amendments (the “Post-Effective Amendments”) relate to the following Registration Statements (collectively, the “Registration Statements”) filed by STR Sub Inc. (formerly Sitio Royalties Corp.) (“Former Sitio”):

On September 6, 2022, the Registrant entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) among Former Sitio, Brigham Minerals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Brigham”), Brigham Minerals Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Opco LLC”), Sitio Royalties Operating Partnership, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Opco LP”), New Sitio, Snapper Merger Sub IV, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Brigham Merger Sub”), Snapper Merger Sub V, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Sitio Merger Sub”), and Snapper Merger Sub II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Opco Merger Sub LLC”).

The Merger Agreement provides for, among other things, the acquisition of Brigham by Former Sitio in an all-stock transaction through: (i) the merger of Brigham Merger Sub with and into Brigham (the “Brigham Merger”), with Brigham surviving the Brigham Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of New Sitio, (ii) the merger of Sitio Merger Sub with and into Former Sitio (the “Sitio Merger”), with Former Sitio surviving the Sitio Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of New Sitio, and (iii) the merger of Opco Merger Sub LLC with and into Opco LLC (the “Opco Merger,” and, together with the Brigham Merger and the Sitio Merger, the “Mergers”), with Opco LLC surviving the Opco Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Opco LP, in each case on the terms set forth in the Merger Agreement. On December 29, 2022, the Sitio Merger and the Brigham Merger became effective concurrently (such time as the Sitio Merger and the Brigham Merger became effective, the “First Effective Time”), and the Opco Merger became effective immediately following the First Effective Time.

As a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, Former Sitio has terminated all offerings of its securities pursuant to the Registration Statements. In accordance with an undertaking made by Former Sitio in the Registration Statements to remove from registration, by means of post-effective amendments, any securities that had been registered for issuance that remain unsold at the termination of the offerings, Former Sitio hereby removes and withdraws from registration all such securities of Former Sitio registered under the Registration Statements that remain unsold as of the date hereof.
