facility (the "Facility") resulting in an increase of the elected borrowing base from $40 million to $50 million. Additionally, the Margined Collateral Value as defined in the Ninth Amendment to the Facility was set at $125 million.  The Margined Collateral Value is used in the determining the utilization of the Facility for the purposes of the required hedging covenant.  As of March 9, 2022, the Company has $20 million outstanding under the Facility.  Based on the current amount outstanding, the utilization percentage under the required hedging covenant is 16%, which is below the minimum utilization threshold of 25% and as a result the Company is not required to enter into additional hedges at this time.  If the Facility was fully drawn at $50 million, the utilization percentage would be 40% and the Company would be required to hedge 25% of future oil and gas production on a rolling twelve months basis.  The Facility is secured by substantially all of the Company's oil and gas assets. The borrowing base is subject to semi-annual redeterminations with the next scheduled redetermination to occur in the fall of 2022.</span></div><div

Item 8.01 Other Events.
On March 4, 2022, Evolution Petroleum Corporation (the "Company") completed the spring redetermination of its senior secured credit facility (the "Facility") resulting in an increase of the elected borrowing base from $40 million to $50 million. Additionally, the Margined Collateral Value as defined in the Ninth Amendment to the Facility was set at $125 million.  The Margined Collateral Value is used in the determining the utilization of the Facility for the purposes of the required hedging covenant.  As of March 9, 2022, the Company has $20 million outstanding under the Facility.  Based on the current amount outstanding, the utilization percentage under the required hedging covenant is 16%, which is below the minimum utilization threshold of 25% and as a result the Company is not required to enter into additional hedges at this time.  If the Facility was fully drawn at $50 million, the utilization percentage would be 40% and the Company would be required to hedge 25% of future oil and gas production on a rolling twelve months basis.  The Facility is secured by substantially all of the Company's oil and gas assets. The borrowing base is subject to semi-annual redeterminations with the next scheduled redetermination to occur in the fall of 2022.
