Description of Organization and Business Operations
Description of Organization and Business Operations	1. Description of Organization and Business Operations Organization and General Rockstream Corp. (the “ Company ”) was incorporated in Delaware on November 4, 2015. On November 11, 2015, the Company changed its name from Rockstream Corp. to Silver Run Acquisition Corporation. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “ Initial Business Combination ”). The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ Securities Act ”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “ JOBS Act ”). The Company’s sponsor is Silver Run Sponsor, LLC; a Delaware limited liability company (the “ Sponsor ”). At June 30, 2016, the Company had not engaged in any significant operations. All activity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 relates to the Company’s formation, the initial public offering (“ Public Offering ” as described below) and efforts directed towards locating a suitable Initial Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after completion of its Initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on investment held in trust account. The Company has selected December 31st as its fiscal year end. Financing On February 23, 2016, the registration statement for the Public Offering was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ SEC ”). On February 29, 2016 (the “ IPO Closing Date ”), the Company consummated the Public Offering of $500,000,000 in Units (as defined in Note 3), and the sale of $12,000,000 in warrants (the “ Private Placement Warrants ”) to the Sponsor (the “ Private Placement ”). On the IPO Closing Date, the Company placed $500,000,000 of proceeds (including the Deferred Discount (as defined in Note 3)) from the Public Offering and the Private Placement into a trust account at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “ Trust Account ”). The Company intends to finance the Initial Business Combination from proceeds held in the Trust Account. At the IPO Closing Date, the Company held $12,000,000 of proceeds from the Public Offering and the Private Placement outside the Trust Account. Of these amounts, $10,000,000 was used to pay underwriting discounts in the Public Offering and $300,000 was used to repay a note payable to the Sponsor (see Note 4), with the balance reserved to pay accrued offering and formation costs, business, legal and accounting due diligence expenses on prospective acquisitions and continuing general and administrative expenses. Trust Account The proceeds held in the Trust Account are invested in money market funds that meet certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended and that invest only in direct U.S. government obligations. The Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that, other than the withdrawal of interest to pay taxes, if any, none of the funds held in the Trust Account will be released until the earlier of: (i) the completion of the Initial Business Combination; (ii) the redemption of any shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “ Class A Common Stock ”) included in the Units (the “ Public Shares ”) sold in the Public Offering that have been properly tendered in connection with a stockholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to modify the substance or timing of its obligation to redeem 100% of such Public Shares if it does not complete the Initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Public Offering; and (iii) the redemption of 100% of the Public Shares if the Company is unable to complete an Initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Public Offering (subject to the requirements of law). The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of the Company’s public stockholders. Initial Business Combination The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Public Offering, although substantially all of the net proceeds of the Public Offering are intended to be generally applied toward consummating an Initial Business Combination. The Initial Business Combination must occur with one or more target businesses that together have an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the Initial Business Combination. Furthermore, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect an Initial Business Combination. The Company, after signing a definitive agreement for an Initial Business Combination, will either (i) seek stockholder approval of the Initial Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose in connection with which public stockholders may seek to redeem their Public Shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against the Initial Business Combination, for cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Initial Business Combination, including interest but less taxes payable, or (ii) provide stockholders with the opportunity to sell their Public Shares to the Company by means of a tender offer (and thereby avoid the need for a stockholder vote) for an amount in cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Initial Business Combination, including interest but less taxes payable. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of the Initial Business Combination or will allow stockholders to sell their Public Shares in a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion, and will be based on a variety of factors such as the timing of the transaction and whether the terms of the transaction would otherwise require the Company to seek stockholder approval, unless a vote is required by law or under NASDAQ rules. If the Company seeks stockholder approval, it will complete its Initial Business Combination only if a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock voted are voted in favor of the Initial Business Combination. However, in no event will the Company redeem its Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001. In such case, the Company would not proceed with the redemption of its Public Shares and the related Initial Business Combination, and instead may search for an alternate Initial Business Combination. If the Company holds a stockholder vote or there is a tender offer for Public Shares in connection with an Initial Business Combination, a public stockholder will have the right to redeem its Public Shares for an amount in cash equal to its pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Initial Business Combination, including interest but less taxes payable. As a result, such shares of Class A Common Stock are recorded at redemption amount and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Public Offering, in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (‘‘ FASB ’’) Accounting Standards Codification (‘‘ ASC ’’) 480, ‘‘Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.’’ Pursuant to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, if the Company is unable to complete the Initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Public Offering, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than ten business days thereafter subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account including interest income but less taxes payable (less up to $100,000 of interest income to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. The Sponsor and the Company’s officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with the Company, pursuant to which they have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Founder Shares (as defined in Note 4) held by them if the Company fails to complete the Initial Business Combination within 24 months of the closing of the Public Offering. However, if the Sponsor or any of the Company’s directors, officers or affiliates acquires Public Shares, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such shares if the Company fails to complete the Initial Business Combination within the prescribed time period. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company after an Initial Business Combination, the Company’s stockholders are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining available for distribution to them after payment of liabilities and after provision is made for each class of stock, if any, having preference over the common stock. The Company’s stockholders have no preemptive or other subscription rights. There are no sinking fund provisions applicable to the common stock, except that the Company will provide its public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares for cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, upon the completion of the Initial Business Combination and the other circumstances described above, subject to the limitations described herein.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.	2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The Company’s unaudited condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“ U.S. GAAP ”) and the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal accruals) considered for a fair presentation have been included. The Company has evaluated subsequent events after June 30, 2016. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016 or any other period. The accompanying unaudited condensed interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s prospectus filed with the SEC on February 25, 2016, as well as the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 4, 2016. Emerging Growth Company Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used. Net Income Per Common Share Net income per common share is computed by dividing net income applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, plus, to the extent dilutive, the incremental number of shares of common stock to settle warrants, as calculated using the treasury stock method. At June 30, 2016, the Company did not have any dilutive securities or other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into common stock and then share in the earnings of the Company under the treasury stock method. As a result, diluted income per common share is the same as basic income per common share for the periods. The Company did not utilize the two class method to compute earnings per share as holders of Class A common stock and Class B common stock share equally in the losses of the Company. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Marketable Securities held in Trust Account The amounts held in the Trust Account represent proceeds from the Public Offering and the Private Placement of $500,000,000 which were invested in a money market instrument that invests in United States Treasury Securities with original maturities of six months or less and are classified as restricted assets because such amounts can only be used by the Company in connection with the consummation of an Initial Business Combination. As of June 30, 2016, marketable securities held in the Trust Account had a fair value of $500,296,824. At June 30, 2016, there was $296,814 of interest income held in the Trust Account available to be released to the Company to pay taxes. Redeemable Common Stock As discussed in Note 1, all of the 50,000,000 Public Shares contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of Class A Common Stock under the Company’s liquidation or tender offer/stockholder approval provisions. In accordance with FASB ASC 480, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require the security to be classified outside of permanent equity. Ordinary liquidation events, which involve the redemption and liquidation of all of the entity’s equity instruments, are excluded from the provisions of FASB ASC 480. Although the Company has not specified a maximum redemption threshold, its amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that in no event will the Company redeem its Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and will adjust the carrying value of the security to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable shares of Class A Common Stock shall be affected by charges against additional paid in capital. Accordingly, at June 30, 2016, 47,877,199 of the 50,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock included in the Units were classified outside of permanent equity at their redemption value. Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts. Financial Instruments The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheet. Use of Estimates The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Offering Costs The Company complies with the requirements of FASB ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A — “Expenses of Offering.” Offering costs of $28,315,521, consisting primarily of underwriting discounts of $27,500,000 (including $17,500,000 of which is deferred), and $815,521 of professional, filing, regulatory and other costs, were charged to additional paid-in capital. Income Taxes The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. FASB ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2016. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. No amounts were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties at June 30, 2016. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception. Related Parties The Company follows subtopic ASC 850-10 for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions. Pursuant to Section 850-10-20, the related parties include: (a) affiliates of the Company (“Affiliate” means, with respect to any specified person, any other person that, directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by or is under common control with such person, as such terms are used in and construed under Rule 405 under the Securities Act); (b) entities for which investments in their equity securities would be required, absent the election of the fair value option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of Section 825-10-15, to be accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; (c) trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and profit-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; (d) principal owners of the Company; (e) management of the Company; (f) other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and (g) other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. Subsequent Events The Company evaluates subsequent events and transactions that occur after the balance sheet date for potential recognition or disclosure. Any material events that occur between the balance sheet date and the date that the financial statements were issued are disclosed as subsequent events, while the financial statements are adjusted to reflect any conditions that existed at the balance sheet date. Recent Accounting Pronouncements The Company’s management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Public Offering

Public Offering	6 Months Ended
	Jun. 30, 2016
Public Offering
Public Offering	3. Public Offering On the IPO Closing Date, the Company sold 50,000,000 units (the “ Units ”) at a price of $10.00 per Unit, including 5,000,000 Units issued pursuant to the partial exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $500,000,000. Each Unit consists of one share of Class A Common Stock and one-third of one warrant (each whole warrant, a “ Warrant ” and, collectively, the “ Warrants ”). Each whole Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one whole share of Class A Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share. No fractional shares will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole Warrants will trade. Each Warrant will become exercisable on the later of 30 days after the completion of the Initial Business Combination or 12 months from the closing of the Public Offering and will expire five years after the completion of the Initial Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. Once the Warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding Warrants in whole and not in part at a price of $0.01 per Warrant upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption, if and only if the last sale price of the Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the Company sent the notice of redemption to the Warrant holders. The Company paid an upfront underwriting discount of 2.0% ($10,000,000) of the per Unit offering price to the underwriters at the closing of the Public Offering, with an additional fee (the “ Deferred Discount ”) of 3.5% ($17,500,000) of the gross offering proceeds payable upon the Company’s completion of an Initial Business Combination. The Deferred Discount will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event the Company completes an Initial Business Combination.

Related Party Transactions	4. Related Party Transactions Founder Shares On November 6, 2015, the Sponsor purchased 11,500,000 shares (the “ Founder Shares ”) of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “ Class B Common Stock ”), for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.002 per share. In February 2016, the Sponsor transferred 40,000 Founder Shares to each of the Company’s independent directors (together with the Sponsor, the “ Initial Stockholders ”) at their original purchase price. On February 24, 2016, the Company effected a stock dividend of approximately 0.125 shares for each outstanding share of Class B Common Stock, resulting in the initial stockholders holding an aggregate of 12,937,500 Founder Shares. On April 8, 2016, following the expiration of the underwriters’ remaining over-allotment option in connection with the Public Offering, the Sponsor forfeited 437,500 Founder Shares, so that the remaining 12,500,000 Founder Shares held by the Initial Stockholders would represent 20.0% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock. As used herein, unless the context otherwise requires, “Founder Shares” shall be deemed to include the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof. The Founder Shares are identical to the Class A Common Stock included in the Units sold in the Public Offering except that the Founder Shares automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock at the time of the Initial Business Combination and are subject to certain transfer restrictions, as described in more detail below. Holders of Founder Shares may also elect to convert their shares of Class B Common Stock into an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock, subject to adjustment, at any time. The Company’s Initial Stockholders have agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) one year after the completion of the Initial Business Combination or (B) subsequent to the Initial Business Combination, (x) if the last sale price of the Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30 trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Initial Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property. Private Placement Warrants The Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 8,000,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.50 per whole warrant ($12,000,000 in the aggregate) in a private placement that occurred simultaneously with the closing of the Public Offering. Each whole Private Placement Warrant is exercisable for one whole share of Class A Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share. A portion of the purchase price of the Private Placement Warrants was added to the proceeds from the Public Offering held in the Trust Account such that at the closing of the Public Offering $500,000,000 was placed in the Trust Account. If the Initial Business Combination is not completed within 24 months from the closing of the Public Offering, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants held in the Trust Account will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless. The Private Placement Warrants are non-redeemable and exercisable on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees. The Sponsor has agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Private Placement Warrants until 30 days after the completion of the Initial Business Combination. Registration Rights The holders of Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans, if any, are entitled to registration rights (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion of such shares to shares of Class A Common Stock) as stated in the registration rights agreement signed on the date of the prospectus for the Public Offering. These holders are entitled to certain demand and “piggyback” registration rights. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until termination of the applicable lock-up period for the securities to be registered. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements. Related Party Loans On November 6, 2015, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company an aggregate of up to $300,000 to cover expenses related to the Public Offering pursuant to a promissory note (the “ Note ”). This loan was non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of March 31, 2016 or the completion of the Public Offering. On November 10, 2015, the Company borrowed $150,000 under the Note. In February 2016, the Company borrowed the remaining $150,000 under the Note. On February 29, 2016, the full $300,000 balance of the Note was repaid to the Sponsor. Administrative Support Agreement On February 23, 2016, the Company entered into an administrative support agreement pursuant to which it agreed to pay an affiliate of the Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. Upon completion of the Initial Business Combination or the Company’s liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees. The Company paid the affiliate of the Sponsor $30,000 and $40,000 for such services for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively.

Subsequent Events	9. Subsequent Events Proposed Business Combination Agreement to Assign On July 21, 2016, the Company entered into an Agreement to Assign (the “ Agreement to Assign ”) with New Centennial, LLC (“ New Centennial ”), an affiliate of Riverstone Holdings, LLC (“ Riverstone ”), pursuant to which New Centennial agreed to assign, and the Company agreed to assume, all of the rights and obligations of New Centennial under that certain Contribution Agreement, dated as of July 6, 2016 (as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Contribution Agreement, dated as of July 29, 2016, the “ Contribution Agreement ”), by and among Centennial Resource Development, LLC (“ CRD ”), NGP Centennial Follow-On LLC, (“ NGP Follow-On ”), and Celero Energy Company, LP, (“ Celero ” and, together with CRD and NGP Follow-On, the “ Centennial Contributors ”), Centennial Resource Production, LLC (“ CRP ”), and New Centennial. Upon the assignment of the Contribution Agreement (the “ Assignment ”), at the closing of the transactions contemplated thereby (the “ Transactions ”), the Company will acquire approximately 89% of the outstanding membership interests in CRP. The Assignment is subject to a number of conditions, including approval of the Transactions by the Company’s stockholders and the effectiveness of the Subscription Agreements (as defined below). The Agreement to Assign contains customary representations, warranties and covenants and may be terminated by the parties thereto as set forth therein, including if approval of the Transactions by the Company’s stockholders has not been received by October 10, 2016. The Transactions will constitute a “Business Combination” under the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation. Contribution Agreement Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, New Centennial agreed to acquire approximately 89% of the outstanding membership interests in CRP. Upon the Assignment, the Company will become a party to the Contribution Agreement and will have the right to acquire the membership interests in CRP instead of New Centennial. In the summary below, it is assumed that the Assignment has occurred. At the Closing (i) the Company will contribute to CRP (a) cash in the amount of (x) $1,186,744,348, plus (y) $200,000,000 if the Centennial Contributors make a cash election (as provided in the Contribution Agreement), and (b) additional cash as necessary to repay certain outstanding debt of CRP or any of its subsidiaries at the closing of the Transactions, (ii) CRP will distribute to the Centennial Contributors the cash consideration in partial redemption of their membership interests in CRP (or in full redemption if the cash election has been made), and (iii) CRP will be recapitalized and (a) provided a cash election is not made, all of the remaining outstanding membership interests in CRP will be converted into 20,000,000 units representing common membership interests in CRP, and (b) the Company will be issued such number of CRP common units as is equal to the number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding following consummation of the Transactions. If the Centennial Contributors do not make the cash election, the Company expects to issue (i) shares of a new class of common stock to the Centennial Contributors designated as the Class C common stock to effect an “Up-C” structure following the Transactions, and (ii) one share of a newly issued class of preferred stock to CRD to effect its right to nominate one member to the board of directors of the Company, the election of which will require only the vote of such preferred share. Each holder of Class C common stock will hold an equivalent number of common units of CRP. The Class C common stock will have no economic interest, but will vote as a single class with the Class A common stock. New Centennial has deposited $157,500,000 into escrow as an earnest money deposit. Under certain circumstances in which CRP would not have sufficient cash to distribute to the Centennial Contributors at the closing the full amount of the cash consideration, the Centennial Contributors may either cause CRP to (i) terminate the Contribution Agreement and receive the deposit or (ii) distribute the maximum amount of cash available to the Centennial Contributors and issue to each Centennial Contributor a promissory note, with such notes having an aggregate principal amount equal to the difference between the cash consideration and the actual aggregate amount of cash available for distribution to the Centennial Contributors. If the Transactions are consummated, New Centennial is entitled to the return of the deposit. The Contribution Agreement contains certain termination rights and customary representations, warranties and covenants. The Contribution Agreement also contains certain closing conditions, including approval of the Transactions by the Company’s stockholders. If such stockholder approval is not received by October 10, 2016, New Centennial will be obligated to consummate the Transactions, on the terms and conditions set forth in the Contribution Agreement. Subscription Agreements In connection with the Transactions, on July 21, 2016, the Company entered into subscription agreements (the “ Investor Subscription Agreements ”) with certain accredited investors pursuant to which such investors agreed to purchase, in the aggregate, 20,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock for an aggregate commitment amount of $200,000,000. On the same date, the Company entered into a separate subscription agreement (the “ Riverstone Subscription Agreement ” and, together with the Investor Subscription Agreements, the “ Subscription Agreements ”), with an affiliate of Riverstone (the “ Riverstone Affiliate ”), pursuant to which the Riverstone Affiliate agreed to purchase up to 81,005,000 shares of Class A Common Stock for an aggregate commitment amount of approximately $810,000,000. The Riverstone Affiliate may assign its rights under the Riverstone Subscription Agreement to one or more parties. Pursuant to the Riverstone Subscription Agreement, the Riverstone Affiliate has also agreed to be ready, willing and able to purchase additional shares of Class A Common Stock at $10.00 per share in an amount such that the proceeds therefrom, together with certain other available funds, will be sufficient for the Company to pay the cash consideration in the Transactions, repay certain outstanding indebtedness of CRP, offset any redemptions of public shares in connection with the Transactions, and pay transaction-related expenses incurred by the Company. The closings under the Subscription Agreements are conditioned on the closing of the Transactions, as well as on other customary closing conditions. The Subscription Agreements contain customary representations and warranties and may be terminated as set forth therein. Promissory Note On August 2, 2016, the Company issued a promissory note to the Sponsor. The promissory note permits borrowings by the Company from time to time from the Sponsor in an aggregate principal amount of up to $300,000. No amounts were outstanding under the promissory note as of August 11, 2016. The promissory note is unsecured, non-interest bearing and matures on the earlier of: (i) December 31, 2016 or (ii) the date on which the Company consummates the proposed Transactions.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Emerging Growth Company	Basis of Presentation The Company’s unaudited condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“ U.S. GAAP ”) and the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal accruals) considered for a fair presentation have been included. The Company has evaluated subsequent events after June 30, 2016. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016 or any other period. The accompanying unaudited condensed interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s prospectus filed with the SEC on February 25, 2016, as well as the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 4, 2016. Emerging Growth Company Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Net Income Per Common Share	Net Income Per Common Share Net income per common share is computed by dividing net income applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, plus, to the extent dilutive, the incremental number of shares of common stock to settle warrants, as calculated using the treasury stock method. At June 30, 2016, the Company did not have any dilutive securities or other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into common stock and then share in the earnings of the Company under the treasury stock method. As a result, diluted income per common share is the same as basic income per common share for the periods. The Company did not utilize the two class method to compute earnings per share as holders of Class A common stock and Class B common stock share equally in the losses of the Company.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Marketable Securities held in Trust Account	Marketable Securities held in Trust Account The amounts held in the Trust Account represent proceeds from the Public Offering and the Private Placement of $500,000,000 which were invested in a money market instrument that invests in United States Treasury Securities with original maturities of six months or less and are classified as restricted assets because such amounts can only be used by the Company in connection with the consummation of an Initial Business Combination. As of June 30, 2016, marketable securities held in the Trust Account had a fair value of $500,296,824. At June 30, 2016, there was $296,814 of interest income held in the Trust Account available to be released to the Company to pay taxes.
Redeemable Common Stock	Redeemable Common Stock As discussed in Note 1, all of the 50,000,000 Public Shares contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of Class A Common Stock under the Company’s liquidation or tender offer/stockholder approval provisions. In accordance with FASB ASC 480, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require the security to be classified outside of permanent equity. Ordinary liquidation events, which involve the redemption and liquidation of all of the entity’s equity instruments, are excluded from the provisions of FASB ASC 480. Although the Company has not specified a maximum redemption threshold, its amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that in no event will the Company redeem its Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and will adjust the carrying value of the security to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable shares of Class A Common Stock shall be affected by charges against additional paid in capital. Accordingly, at June 30, 2016, 47,877,199 of the 50,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock included in the Units were classified outside of permanent equity at their redemption value.
Concentration of Credit Risk	Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.
Financial Instruments	Financial Instruments The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheet.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Offering Costs	Offering Costs The Company complies with the requirements of FASB ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A — “Expenses of Offering.” Offering costs of $28,315,521, consisting primarily of underwriting discounts of $27,500,000 (including $17,500,000 of which is deferred), and $815,521 of professional, filing, regulatory and other costs, were charged to additional paid-in capital.
Income Taxes	Income Taxes The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. FASB ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2016. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. No amounts were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties at June 30, 2016. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.
Related Parties	Related Parties The Company follows subtopic ASC 850-10 for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions. Pursuant to Section 850-10-20, the related parties include: (a) affiliates of the Company (“Affiliate” means, with respect to any specified person, any other person that, directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by or is under common control with such person, as such terms are used in and construed under Rule 405 under the Securities Act); (b) entities for which investments in their equity securities would be required, absent the election of the fair value option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of Section 825-10-15, to be accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; (c) trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and profit-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; (d) principal owners of the Company; (e) management of the Company; (f) other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and (g) other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.
Subsequent Events	Subsequent Events The Company evaluates subsequent events and transactions that occur after the balance sheet date for potential recognition or disclosure. Any material events that occur between the balance sheet date and the date that the financial statements were issued are disclosed as subsequent events, while the financial statements are adjusted to reflect any conditions that existed at the balance sheet date.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting Pronouncements The Company’s management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
