All statements, other than statements of historical facts, that address activity, events, or developments with respect to our financial condition, results of operations, or economic performance that we expect, believe or anticipate will or may occur in the future, or that address plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “assume,” “believe,” “budget,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “future,” “initial,” “intend,” “likely,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “proposed,” “should,” “will,” “would” and similar terms, phrases, and expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements relate to, among other things:

Our forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and analyses made by us in light of our experience and our perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors that we believe are appropriate under the circumstances. These statements are subject to a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which may cause our actual results and performance to be materially different from any future results or performance expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results and performance to differ materially from any future results or performance expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following:

•the uncertain nature of demand for and price of natural gas and LNG;

•risks related to shortages of LNG vessels worldwide;

•technological innovation which may render our anticipated competitive advantage obsolete;

•risks related to a terrorist or military incident involving an LNG carrier;

•changes in legislation and regulations relating to the LNG industry, including environmental laws and regulations that impose significant compliance costs and liabilities;

•governmental interventions in the LNG industry, including increases in barriers to international trade;

•uncertainties regarding our ability to maintain sufficient liquidity and attract sufficient capital resources to implement our projects;

•our limited operating history;

•our ability to attract and retain key personnel;

•risks related to doing business in, and having counterparties in, foreign countries;

•our reliance on the skill and expertise of third-party service providers;

•the ability of our vendors, customers and other counterparties to meet their contractual obligations;

•risks and uncertainties inherent in management estimates of future operating results and cash flows;

•our ability to maintain compliance with our debt arrangements;

•changes in competitive factors, including the development or expansion of LNG, pipeline and other projects that are competitive with ours;

•development risks, operational hazards and regulatory approvals;

•our ability to enter into and consummate planned financing and other transactions;

•risks related to pandemics or disease outbreaks;

•risks of potential impairment charges and reductions in our reserves; and

Driftwood Terminal Construction in Progress

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company initiated certain owner construction activities necessary to proceed under our LSTK EPC agreement with Bechtel Energy Inc., formerly known as Bechtel Oil, Gas and Chemicals, Inc. (“Bechtel”), for Phase 1 of the Driftwood terminal dated as of November 10, 2017 (the “Phase 1 EPC Agreement”). On March 24, 2022, the Company issued a limited notice to proceed to Bechtel under the Phase 1 EPC Agreement and commenced construction of Phase 1 of the Driftwood terminal on April 4, 2022. As the Company commenced construction activities, Deferred engineering costs and Permitting Costs of approximately $110.0 million and $13.4 million, respectively, were transferred to construction in progress as of March 31, 2022. During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, we capitalized approximately ~~$66.6~~$115.4 million of directly identifiable project costs as construction in progress.

Asset Acquisition

On August 18, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of certain natural gas assets in the Haynesville Shale basin. The purchase price of $125.0 million was subject to adjustments of approximately $9.9 million, for an adjusted purchase price at closing of approximately $134.9 million. The sellers may receive an additional cash payment of $7.5 million if the average NYMEX Henry Hub Gas Price for the contract delivery months beginning with August 2022 through March 2023 exceeds a specific threshold per MmBtu (the “Contingent Consideration”). See Note 6, Financial Instruments, for further information.

NOTE 4 — DEFERRED ENGINEERING COSTS

Deferred engineering costs related to the planned construction of the Driftwood terminal were transferred to construction in progress upon issuing the limited notice to proceed to Bechtel in March 2022. See Note 3, Property, Plant and Equipment, for further information.

Land Lease and Purchase Options

During the first quarter of 2022, we exercised the final land purchase options related to the Driftwood terminal. Land purchase options held by the Company as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 are related to the Driftwood pipeline and other related pipelines.

Permitting Costs

Permitting costs primarily represented the purchase of wetland credits in connection with our permit application to the USACE in 2017 and 2018. These wetland credits were transferred to construction in progress upon issuing the limited notice to proceed to Bechtel in March 2022. See Note 3, Property, Plant and Equipment, for further information. These wetland credits will be applied to our permit in accordance with the Clean Water Act and the Rivers and Harbors Act, which require us to mitigate the potential impact to Louisiana wetlands that might be caused by the construction of the Driftwood Project.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, represents the cash collateralization of letters of credit associated with a finance ~~lease.~~leases.

~~Investment~~Investments in unconsolidated ~~entity~~entities

On February 24, 2022, the Company purchased 1.5 million ordinary shares of an unaffiliated entity ~~engaged in~~that provides renewable energy services for a total cost of approximately $6.1 million. This investment does not provide the Company with a controlling financial interest in or significant influence over the operating or financial decisions of the unaffiliated entity. The Company’s investment was recorded at cost.

The Company issued a $5.0 million promissory note due June 14, 2024 (the “Promissory Note”) to an unaffiliated entity (“Borrower”) engaged in the development of infrastructure projects in the energy industry. The Promissory Note bears interest at a rate of 6.00%, which will be capitalized into the outstanding principal balance annually.

NOTE 6 — FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Natural Gas Financial Instruments

~~During the fourth quarter~~The primary purpose of ~~2021, we began entering into~~our commodity risk management activities is to hedge our exposure to cash flow variability from commodity price risk due to fluctuations in commodity prices. The Company uses natural gas financial futures and option contracts to economically hedge the commodity price ~~exposure of~~risks associated with a portion of our expected natural gas production. The Company’s open positions as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, had notional volumes of ~~5.9~~approximately 14.7 Bcf, with maturities extending through ~~March~~October 2023.

LNG Financial Instruments

During the three months ended December 31, 2021, we entered into LNG financial futures contracts to reduce our exposure to commodity price fluctuations, and to achieve more predictable cash flows relative to 2two LNG cargos that we were committed to purchase from and sell to unrelated third-party LNG merchants in the normal course of business in January and April 2022. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, there were no open LNG financial instrument positions.

Contingent Consideration

The purchase price of certain natural gas assets acquired in the Haynesville Shale basin includes Contingent Consideration payable to the sellers if natural gas commodity prices exceed a specific threshold, refer to Note 3, Property, Plant and Equipment, for further information. The Contingent Consideration was determined to be an embedded derivative that is recorded at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of the date of the acquisition, the fair value of the Contingent Consideration was approximately $3.9 million, which was recorded as part of the basis in proved natural gas properties with a corresponding embedded derivative liability. Changes in the fair value of the Contingent Consideration are recognized in the period they occur and included within Other expense, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Senior Secured Convertible Notes due 2025

On June 3, 2022, we issued and sold $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.00% Senior Secured Convertible Notes due May 1, 2025 (the “Convertible Notes” or the “Notes”). Net proceeds from the Convertible Notes were approximately $488.7 million after deducting fees and expenses. The Convertible Notes have quarterly interest payments due on February 1, May 1, August 1, and November 1 of each year and on the maturity date. Debt issuance costs of approximately $11.5 million were capitalized and are being amortized over the full term of the ~~Convertible~~ Notes using the effective interest rate method.

The holders of the Convertible Notes have the right to convert the ~~Convertible~~ Notes into shares of our common stock at an initial conversion rate of 174.703 shares per $1,000 principal amount of ~~Convertible~~ Notes (equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $5.724 per share of common stock) (the “Conversion Price”), subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. Holders of the Convertible Notes may force the Company to redeem the Notes for cash upon (i) a fundamental change or (ii) an event of default.

The Company will force the holders of the Convertible Notes to convert all of the ~~Convertible~~ Notes if the trading price of our common stock closes above 200% of the Conversion Price for 20 consecutive trading days and certain other conditions are satisfied. The Company may provide written notice to each holder of the ~~Convertible~~ Notes calling all of such holder’s ~~Convertible~~ Notes for a cash purchase price equal to 120% of the principal amount being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest (the “Optional Redemption”), and each holder will have the right to accept or reject such Optional Redemption.

On each of May 1, 2023 and May 1, 2024, the holders of the Convertible Notes may redeem up to $166.6 million of the initial principal amount of the ~~Convertible~~ Notes at par, plus accrued and unpaid interest (the “Redemption Amount”). The Company classified the potential Redemption Amount in respect of May 1, 2023 as a current borrowing on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022.

Tellurian Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

Our borrowing obligations under the Convertible Notes are collateralized by a first priority lien on the Company’s equity interests in Tellurian Production Holdings, LLC (“Tellurian Production Holdings”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Tellurian Inc. Tellurian Production Holdings owns all of the Company’s upstream natural gas assets described in Note 3, Property, Plant and ~~Equipment.~~Equipment. Upon the Company’s compliance with its obligations in respect of an Optional Redemption (regardless of whether holders accept or reject the redemption), the lien on the equity interests in Tellurian Production Holdings will be automatically released. The ~~Convertible~~ Notes contain a minimum cash ~~covenant~~balance requirement of $100.0 million and non-financial covenants. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, we remained in compliance with the minimum cash balance requirement and all other covenants under the ~~Convertible~~ Notes.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the estimated fair value of the Convertible Notes was approximately ~~$465.3~~$453.3 million. The Level 3 fair value was estimated based on inputs that are observable in the market or that could be derived from, or corroborated with, observable market data, including our stock price and inputs that are not observable in the market.

Senior Notes due 2028

On November 10, 2021, we sold in a registered public offering $50.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8.25% Senior Notes due November 30, 2028 (the “Senior Notes”). Net proceeds from the Senior Notes were approximately $47.5 million after deducting fees. The underwriter was granted an option to purchase up to an additional $7.5 million of the Senior Notes within 30 days. On December 7, 2021, the underwriter exercised the option and purchased an additional

~~$6.5~~ $6.5 million of the Senior Notes resulting in net proceeds of approximately $6.2 million after deducting fees. The Senior Notes have quarterly interest payments due on January 31, April 30, July 31, and October 31 of each year and on the maturity date. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the indenture governing the Senior Notes. The Senior Notes are traded on the NYSE American under the symbol “TELZ,” and are classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the closing market price was $18.28 per Senior ~~Note was $21.85.~~Note.

At-the-Market Debt Offering Program

On December 17, 2021, we entered into an at-the-market debt offering program under which the Company may offer and sell from time to time on the NYSE American up to an aggregate principal amount of $200.0 million of additional Senior Notes. For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, we sold approximately $1.2 million aggregate principal amount of additional Senior Notes for total proceeds of approximately $1.1 million after fees and commissions under our at-the-market debt offering program. The Company has not sold any Senior Notes under the at-the-market debt offering program since January 2022 and is restricted from doing so under an agreement entered into in connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes.

Extinguishment of the 2019 Term Loan

On May 23, 2019, Driftwood Holdings LP, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a senior secured term loan agreement (the “2019 Term Loan”) to borrow an aggregate principal amount of $60.0 million. On March 12, 2021, ~~(the “Extinguishment Date”),~~ we finalized a voluntary repayment of the remaining outstanding principal balance of the 2019 Term Loan. A total of approximately $43.7 million was repaid to the lender during the first quarter of 2021 to satisfy the outstanding borrowing obligation. The extinguishment of the 2019 Term Loan resulted in an approximately $2.1 million gain, which was recognized within Gain on extinguishment of debt, net, on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

As a result of repaying the outstanding balance prior to its contractual maturity, an approximately $4.4 million in unamortized DFC and discount was included in the computation of the gain from the extinguishment of the 2019 Term Loan.

The holder of the 2019 Term Loan held approximately 3.5 million unvested warrants that had a fair value of approximately $6.3 million as of the Extinguishment Date. Due to the extinguishment of the 2019 Term Loan, all the unvested warrants were contractually terminated (the “Terminated Warrants”), and their respective fair value was included in the computation of the gain on extinguishment of the 2019 Term Loan. The fair value of the Terminated Warrants was determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model.

2018 Term Loan

On September 28, 2018, Tellurian Production Holdings entered into a three-year senior secured term loan credit agreement (the “2018 Term Loan”) in an aggregate principal amount of $60.0 million. On February 18, 2021, we voluntarily repaid approximately $43.0 million of the 2018 Term Loan outstanding principal balance. Then, on April 23, 2021, we voluntarily repaid the remaining outstanding principal balance of $17.0 million.

These voluntary repayments resulted in losses of approximately ~~$0.2 million and~~ $0.7 million for the ~~three and six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021, ~~respectively,~~ which were recognized within ~~(Loss) gain~~Gain on extinguishment of debt, net, on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Trade Finance Credit Line

On July 19, 2021, we entered into an uncommitted trade finance credit line for up to $30.0 million that is intended to finance the purchase of LNG cargos for ultimate resale in the normal course of business. On December 7, 2021, the uncommitted trade finance credit line was amended and increased to $150.0 million. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, no amounts were drawn under this credit line.

NOTE 9 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

On January 26, 2022, our wholly owned subsidiary Tellurian Trading UK Ltd entered into an agreement to cancel 3 LNG cargos that the Company was committed to purchase in April, July and October 2022 under a master LNG sale and purchase agreement (“LNG SPA”) we entered into in April 2019 with an unrelated third-party LNG merchant. The Company is required to pay a cancellation fee of approximately $1.0 million for all 3 LNG cargos. As of June 30, 2022, a balance of approximately $690.0 thousand remains outstanding and is included within Accrued and other liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company does not have any further commitments or obligations under this LNG SPA.

Related Party Contractor Service Fees and Expenses

NOTE 10 — STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

At-the-Market Equity Offering Programs

We maintain multiple at-the-market equity offering programs pursuant to which we may sell shares of our common stock from time to time on the NYSE American. During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, we issued 67.7 million shares of our common stock under our at-the-market equity offering programs for net proceeds of approximately $299.7 million. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, we had remaining availability under such at-the-market programs to raise aggregate gross sales proceeds of up to approximately $323.7 million. The Company has not sold any common stock under the at-the-market equity offering programs since April 2022.

Common Stock Purchase Warrants

2019 Term Loan

During the first quarter of 2021, the lender of the 2019 Term Loan exercised warrants to purchase approximately 6.0 million shares of our common stock for total proceeds of approximately $8.2 million. As discussed in Note 8, Borrowings, the 2019 Term Loan has been repaid in full and the lender no longer holds any warrants.

Preferred Stock

In March 2018, we entered into a preferred stock purchase agreement with BDC Oil and Gas Holdings, LLC (“Bechtel Holdings”), a Delaware limited liability company and an affiliate of Bechtel, pursuant to which we sold to Bechtel Holdings approximately 6.1 million shares of our Series C convertible preferred stock (the “Preferred Stock”).

The holders of the Preferred Stock do not have dividend rights but do have a liquidation preference over holders of our common stock. The holders of the Preferred Stock may convert all or any portion of their shares into shares of our common stock on a ~~1-for-one~~one-for-one basis. At any time after “Substantial Completion” of “Project 1,” each as defined in and pursuant to the Phase 1 EPC Agreement, or at any time after March 21, 2028, we have the right to cause all of the Preferred Stock to be converted into shares of our common stock on a ~~1-for-one~~one-for-one basis. The Preferred Stock has been excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share because including it in the computation would have been antidilutive for the periods presented.

NOTE 11 — SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

We have granted restricted stock and restricted stock units (collectively, “Restricted Stock”), as well as unrestricted stock and stock options, to employees, directors and outside consultants (collectively, the “grantees”) under the Tellurian Inc. 2016 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan, as amended (the “2016 Plan”), and the Amended and Restated Tellurian Investments Inc. 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Legacy Plan”). The maximum number of shares of Tellurian common stock authorized for issuance under the 2016 Plan is 40 million shares of common stock, and no further awards can be granted under the Legacy Plan.

Upon the vesting of restricted stock, shares of common stock will be released to the grantee. Upon the vesting of restricted stock units, the units will be converted into either cash, stock, or a combination thereof. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, there was no Restricted Stock that would be required to be settled in cash.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, we had approximately ~~31.9~~28.0 million shares of primarily performance-based Restricted Stock outstanding, of which approximately ~~19.2~~15.9 million shares will vest entirely at FID, as defined in the award agreements, and approximately ~~11.7~~11.2 million shares will vest in one-third increments at FID and the first and second anniversaries of FID. The remaining shares of primarily performance-based Restricted Stock, totaling approximately ~~1.0~~0.9 million shares, will vest based on other criteria. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, no expense had been recognized in connection with performance-based Restricted Stock.

For the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the recognized share-based compensation expenses related to all share-based awards totaled approximately ~~$0.8~~$1.0 million and ~~$1.7~~$2.8 million, respectively. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, unrecognized compensation expenses, based on the grant date fair value, for all share-based awards totaled approximately ~~$204.2~~$184.3 million. Further, approximately ~~31.9~~27.7 million shares of primarily performance-based Restricted Stock, as well as

Tellurian Inc. and Subsidiaries

approximately 11.1 million stock options outstanding, have been excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share because including them in the computation would have been antidilutive for the periods presented.

NOTE 12 — INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PROGRAM

On November 18, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the adoption of the Tellurian Incentive Compensation Program (the “Incentive Compensation Program” or “ICP”). The ICP allows the Company to award short-term and long-term performance and service-based incentive compensation to full-time employees of the Company. ICP awards may be earned with respect to each calendar year and are determined based on guidelines established by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, as administrator of the ICP.

Long-term incentive awards

Long-term incentive (“LTI”) awards under the ICP were granted in January 2022 in the form of “tracking units,” at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “2021 LTI Award”). Each such tracking unit has a value equal to 1one share of Tellurian common stock and entitles the grantee to receive, upon vesting, a cash payment equal to the closing price of our common stock on the trading day prior to the vesting date. These tracking units will vest in 3three equal tranches at grant date, and the first and second anniversaries of the grant date. Non-vested tracking unit awards as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, and awards granted during the period were as follows:


		Number of Tracking Units (in thousands)	Price per Tracking Unit			Number of Tracking Units (in thousands)	Price per Tracking Unit
Balance at January 1, 2022	Balance at January 1, 2022	—	—		Balance at January 1, 2022	—	—
Granted	Granted	19,332	$	3.09	Granted	19,332	$	3.09
Vested	Vested	(6,444)	3.38		Vested	(6,444)	3.38
Forfeited	Forfeited	(110)	3.34		Forfeited	(159)	3.46
Unvested balance at June 30, 2022		12,778	$	2.98
Unvested balance at September 30, 2022					Unvested balance at September 30, 2022	12,729	$	2.39

We recognize compensation expense for awards with graded vesting schedules over the requisite service periods for each separately vesting portion of the award as if each award was in substance multiple awards. Compensation expense for the first tranche of the 2021 LTI Award that vested at the grant date was recognized over the performance period when it was probable that the performance condition was achieved. Compensation expense for the second and third tranches of the 2021 LTI Award is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Compensation expense for unvested tracking units is subsequently adjusted each reporting period to reflect the estimated payout levels based on changes in the Company’s stock price and actual forfeitures. For the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, we recognized approximately ~~$1.6~~$2.8 million and ~~$14.3~~$17.1 million, respectively, in compensation expense for the second and third tranches of the 2021 LTI Award.

NOTE 13 — INCOME TAXES

Due to our cumulative loss position, historical net operating losses (“NOLs”), and other available evidence related to our ability to generate taxable income, we have recorded a full valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Accordingly, we have not recorded a provision for federal, state or foreign income taxes during the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022.

We experienced ownership changes as defined by Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) Section 382 in 2017, and an analysis of the annual limitation on the utilization of our NOLs was performed at that time. It was determined that IRC Section 382 will not limit the use of our NOLs over the carryover period. We will continue to monitor trading activity in our shares that may cause an additional ownership change, which may ultimately affect our ability to fully utilize our existing NOL carryforwards.

NOTE 14 — LEASES

Our land leases are classified as finance leases and include one or more options to extend the lease term for up to 40 years, as well as to terminate the lease within five years, at our sole discretion. We are reasonably certain that those options will be exercised, and that our termination rights will not be exercised, and we have, therefore, included those assumptions within our right of use assets and corresponding lease liabilities. Our office space leases are classified as operating leases and include one or more options to extend the lease term up to 10 years, at our sole discretion. As we are not reasonably certain that those

Tellurian Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

options will be exercised, none are recognized as part of our right of use assets and lease liabilities. As none of our leases provide an implicit rate, we have determined our own discount rate.

NOTE 16 — DISCLOSURE ABOUT SEGMENTS AND RELATED INFORMATION

During the quarter ended June 30, 2022, the Company commenced construction of the Driftwood terminal under the Phase 1 EPC Agreement with Bechtel while continuing to increase its natural gas presence in the Haynesville Shale basin in northern Louisiana and expanding its natural gas marketing activities. The Company’s Chief ~~operating decision maker~~Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) determined to place additional emphasis and visibility on operating cash flows generated by our upstream and natural gas marketing business activities. Consequently, we identified the Upstream, Midstream and Marketing & Trading components as the Company’s operating segments.

These functions have been defined as the operating segments of the Company because (1) they are engaged in business activities from which revenues are recognized and expenses are incurred, (2) their operating results are regularly reviewed by the Company’s CODM to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and to assess its performance, and (3) they are segments for which discrete financial information is available.

Factors used to identify these operating segments are based on the nature of the business activities that are undertaken by each component. The Upstream segment is organized and operates to produce and gather natural gas. The Midstream segment is organized to develop, construct and operate LNG terminals and pipelines. The Marketing & Trading segment is organized and operates to purchase and sell natural gas, market the Driftwood terminal’s LNG production capacity and trade LNG. These operating segments represent the Company’s reportable segments. The Company’s CODM does not currently assess segment performance or allocate resources based on a measure of total assets. Accordingly, a total asset measure has not been provided for segment disclosure.

The remainder of our business is presented as “Corporate,” and consists of corporate costs and intersegment eliminations.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Introduction

The following discussion and analysis presents management’s view of our business, financial condition and overall performance and should be read in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying notes. This information is intended to provide investors with an understanding of our past development activities, current financial condition and outlook for the future organized as follows:

Our Business

Tellurian Inc. (“Tellurian,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, is a Houston-based company that is developing and plans to operate a portfolio of natural gas, LNG marketing, and infrastructure assets that includes an LNG terminal facility (the “Driftwood terminal”), an associated pipeline (the “Driftwood pipeline”), other related pipelines, and upstream natural gas assets (collectively referred to as the “Business”). The Driftwood terminal and the Driftwood pipeline are collectively referred to as the “Driftwood Project.” As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, our existing natural gas assets consisted of ~~14,876~~22,420 net acres and interests in 84131 producing wells located in the Haynesville Shale ~~trend~~basin of northern Louisiana. Our Business may be developed in phases.

As part of our execution strategy, which includes increasing our asset base, we will consider various commercial arrangements with third parties across the natural gas value chain. We are also pursuing activities such as direct sales of LNG to global counterparties, trading of LNG, the acquisition of additional upstream acreage and drilling of new wells on our existing or newly acquired upstream acreage. We ~~are currently~~remain focused on the financing and construction of the Driftwood ~~terminal~~Project and related pipelines and continuing to expand our upstream activities.

We continue to evaluate the scope and other aspects of our Business in light of the evolving economic environment, needs of potential counterparties and other factors. How we execute our Business will be based on a variety of factors, including the results of our continuing analysis, changing business conditions and market feedback.

Overview of Significant Events

~~Limited Notice to Proceed~~Upstream Asset Acquisition

On ~~March 24,~~August 18, 2022, the Company ~~issued~~completed the acquisition of certain natural gas assets in the Haynesville Shale basin. The purchase price of $125.0 million was subject to adjustments of approximately $9.9 million, for an adjusted purchase price at closing of approximately $134.9 million. The sellers may receive an additional cash payment of $7.5 million if the average NYMEX Henry Hub Gas Price for the contract delivery months beginning with August 2022 through March 2023 exceeds a limited notice to proceed to Bechtel Energy Inc., formerly known as Bechtel Oil, Gas and Chemicals, Inc. (“Bechtel”), under our LSTK EPC agreement for Phase 1 of the Driftwood terminal dated as of November 10, 2017specific threshold per MmBtu (the ~~“Phase 1 EPC Agreement”~~“Contingent Consideration”). ~~The Company commenced construction of Phase 1 of the Driftwood terminal on April 4, 2022.~~

~~Senior Secured Convertible Notes due 2025~~

On June 3, 2022, we issued and sold $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.00% Senior Secured Convertible Notes due May 1, 2025 (the “Convertible Notes”). Net proceeds from the Convertible Notes were approximately $488.7 million after deducting fees and expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Capital Resources

We consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. We are currently funding our operations, development activities and general working capital needs through our cash on hand and cash generated from our upstream natural gas sales. Our current capital resources consist of approximately ~~$823.5~~$607.5 million of cash and cash equivalents as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022. We currently maintain at-the-market debt and equity offering programs pursuant to which we sell our Senior Notes and common stock from time to time. As of the date of this filing, we have remaining availability to raise aggregate gross sales proceeds of approximately ~~$522.6~~$323.7 million under ~~these programs.~~

~~Tellurian Inc.~~the at-the-market equity offering programs and ~~Subsidiaries~~

are contractually prohibited from issuing additional Senior Notes under the debt at-the-market offering program.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, we had total indebtedness of approximately $557.7 million, of which approximately $166.7 million is subject to redemption at the sole discretion of holders of the Senior Secured Convertible Notes due 2025

within the next twelve months. We also had contractual obligations associated with our finance and operating leases totaling approximately ~~$217.5~~$217.9 million, of which approximately ~~$7.4~~$7.8 million is scheduled to be paid within the next twelve months.

The Company has sufficient cash on hand and available liquidity to satisfy its obligations and fund its working capital needs for at least twelve months following the date of issuance of the consolidated financial statements. The Company has the ability to generate additional proceeds from various other potential financing transactions. We are currently focused on the financing and construction of the Driftwood terminal and continuing to expand our upstream activities.

Cash used in operating activities for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 increased by approximately ~~$52.5~~$26.5 million due to an overall increase in disbursements in the normal course of business. The increase was partially offset by an approximately $22.7 million increase in accounts receivable for the six months ended June 30, 2022 due to the positive impact of increased natural gas prices and production volumes,business, as compared to the same period in 2021.

Cash used in investing activities for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 increased by approximately ~~$152.0~~$361.7 million compared to the same period in ~~2021~~2021. This increase is primarily ~~related~~due to increased natural gas acquisition and development activities of approximately ~~$66.5~~$236.6 million in the current period, as compared to approximately $23.4 million in the prior period. This increase is also due to Driftwood Project construction costs of approximately ~~$68.7~~$117.8 million and Driftwood Project land purchases and land improvements of approximately ~~$17.4 million, and an investment of approximately $6.1~~$19.4 million in ~~an unconsolidated entity, as compared to~~ the ~~same period in 2021.~~current period.

Cash provided by financing activities for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 increased by approximately ~~$718.5~~$596.7 million compared to the same period in 2021. This increase is primarily due to approximately $489.7 million in net proceeds from borrowing issuances in the current period, as compared to approximately $119.7 million in principal repayments of borrowings in the prior period. The increase is also due to approximately $299.7 million in net proceeds from equity issuances as compared to approximately ~~$182.4~~$309.1 million in the prior period.

Borrowings

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, we had total indebtedness of approximately $557.7 million. See Note 8, Borrowings, for further information.

Capital Development Activities

The activities we have proposed will require significant amounts of capital and are subject to completion risks and ~~delays in completion.~~delays. We have received all regulatory approvals for the construction of Phase 1 of the Driftwood terminal and, as a result, our business success will depend to a significant extent upon our ability to obtain the funding necessary to construct assets on a commercially viable basis and to finance the costs of staffing, operating and expanding our company during that process. We initiated certain owner construction activities necessary to proceed under the Phase 1 EPC Agreement with Bechtel and increased our upstream acquisition and development activities. In March 2022, we issued a limited notice to proceed to Bechtel under our Phase 1 EPC Agreement and commenced the construction of Phase 1 of the Driftwood terminal in April 2022.

~~Tellurian Inc. and Subsidiaries~~

~~Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations~~

We currently estimate the total cost of the Driftwood Project as well as related pipelines ~~and upstream natural gas assets~~ to be approximately $25.0 billion, including owners’ costs, transaction costs and contingencies but excluding interest costs incurred during construction and other financing costs. The proposed Driftwood terminal will have a liquefaction capacity of up to approximately 27.6 Mtpa and will be situated on approximately 1,200 acres in Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana. The proposed Driftwood terminal will include up to 20 liquefaction Trains, three full containment LNG storage tanks and three marine berths.

Tellurian Inc. and Subsidiaries

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Our strategy involves acquiring additional natural gas properties, including properties in the Haynesville shale ~~trend.~~basin. We intend to pursue potential acquisitions of such assets, or public or private companies that own such assets. We would expect to use stock, cash on hand, or cash raised in financing transactions to complete an acquisition of this type.

We anticipate funding our more immediate liquidity requirements ~~relative to~~for the ~~commencement of~~ construction of the Driftwood terminal, natural gas activities, and general and administrative expenses through the use of cash on hand, proceeds from operations, and proceeds from completed and future issuances of securities by us. Investments in the construction of the Driftwood terminal and natural gas development ~~may~~are and will continue to be significant, ~~in 2022,~~ but the size of those investments will depend on, among other things, commodity prices, Driftwood Project financing developments and other liquidity considerations, and our continuing analysis of strategic risks and opportunities. Consistent with our overall financing strategy, the Company has considered, and in some cases discussed with investors, various potential financing transactions, including issuances of debt, equity and equity-linked securities or similar transactions, to support its short- and medium-term capital requirements. The Company will continue to evaluate its cash needs and business outlook, and it may execute one or more transactions of this type in the future.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

~~We do not believe that we hold, or are party to, instruments that are subject to~~The primary market ~~risks that are material~~risk relating to our ~~Business.~~financial instrument contracts is the volatility in commodity market prices for our natural gas production. We use financial instruments to reduce the volatility of earnings and cash flow due to fluctuations in the prices of natural gas. The market price risk is offset by the gain or loss recognized upon the related sale of the production that is financially protected. Refer to Note 6, Financial Instruments, of the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for additional details about our financial instruments and their fair value.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As indicated in the certifications in Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2 to this report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022. Based on that evaluation, these officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to them in a manner that allows for timely decisions regarding required disclosures and are effective in ensuring that such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

None.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, except for the risk factors discussed below.

If the conditions precedent to ~~any of~~ our LNG sale and purchase ~~agreements (the “LNG SPAs”~~agreement (“LNG SPA”) cannot be satisfied or extended on acceptable terms, or at all, such LNG ~~SPAs~~SPA may be terminated.

In 2021, Driftwood LNG LLC (“Driftwood LNG”) entered into an LNG SPA with each of Vitol Inc. (“Vitol”) and Gunvor Singapore Pte Ltd (“Gunvor”) and two LNG SPAs with Shell NA LLC (“Shell”). On September 23, 2022, we received a notice of termination from Shell with respect to the two LNG SPAs with Shell, and we delivered a notice of termination to Vitol regarding the LNG SPA with Vitol. Conditions precedent to each party’s obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated by ~~each~~the LNG SPA with Gunvor include (i) Driftwood LNG having issued to Bechtel Oil, Gas and Chemicals, Inc. an unconditional full notice to proceed for the construction of the first two plants of the Driftwood terminal and (ii) Driftwood LNG or an affiliate thereof having secured the necessary financing arrangements to construct such plants and having achieved financial close under such arrangements. The LNG ~~SPAs with Vitol and Shell have a conditions precedent deadline of July 31, 2022, and the LNG~~ SPA with Gunvor has a conditions precedent deadline of December 31, 2022. If the conditions precedent to the ~~applicable~~ LNG SPA with Gunvor are not satisfied by such conditions precedent deadline, either party to the LNG SPA can terminate such LNG SPA, subject to each LNG SPA’s notice requirements. There can be no assurance that we will be able to satisfy or extend the conditions precedent ~~deadlines~~deadline on acceptable terms, or at all. The termination of ~~any~~the LNG ~~SPAs~~SPA with Gunvor could negatively affect our ability to secure additional equity and/or debt financing to complete the Driftwood Project on acceptable terms, or at all.

~~If completed, our proposed~~Our Acquisition (as defined below) may not achieve its intended results and may result in us assuming unanticipated liabilities. ~~To date, we have conducted only limited diligence regarding the assets and liabilities we would assume in the Acquisition.~~

On July 13, 2022, we entered into a purchase and sale agreement (the “Acquisition Agreement”) pursuant to which we ~~expect to acquire~~acquired on August 18, 2022 certain natural gas assets in the Haynesville Shale ~~for $125 million in cash, subject to customary closing conditions and purchase price adjustments (the “Acquisition”),~~of Louisiana, with the expectation that the Acquisition would result in various benefits, growth opportunities and synergies. Achieving the anticipated benefits of the Acquisition is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. For example, under the Acquisition Agreement, we ~~have~~had the opportunity to conduct customary environmental and title due ~~diligence following the execution of the agreement, but our diligence efforts to date have been limited. As a result,~~diligence. However, we may discover title defects or adverse environmental or other conditions of which we are currently unaware. Environmental, title and other problems could reduce the value of the properties to us, and, depending on the circumstances, we could have limited or no recourse with respect to those problems. We ~~would assume~~have assumed substantially all of the liabilities associated with the acquired properties and ~~would~~will be entitled to indemnification in connection with those liabilities in only limited circumstances and in limited amounts. We cannot assure you that such potential remedies will be adequate for any liabilities we incur, and such liabilities could be significant. In addition, certain of the properties to be acquired are subject to consents to assign and preference rights. If all applicable waivers cannot be obtained, we may not be able to acquire certain properties as originally contemplated and our expected benefits of the acquisition may be adversely affected. Also, it is uncertain whether our existing operations and the acquired properties and assets can be integrated in an efficient and effective manner.

As with other acquisitions, the success of the Acquisition depends on, among other things, the accuracy of our assessment of the reserves and drilling locations associated with the acquired properties, future commodity prices and operating

costs and various other factors. These assessments are necessarily inexact. As a result, we may not recover the purchase price for the Acquisition from the sale of production from the properties or recognize acceptable rates of return from such sales.
