UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE BRIEF OF APPELLANT

TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS: Appellant NGL Water Solutions Permian, LLC (“NGL”) files this Motion for Extension of Time to File its opening brief pursuant to Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure 10.5(b) and 55.7: 1. Appellant’s opening brief is currently due on Wednesday, August 20, 2025. Appellant seeks a thirty-day extension from August 20, 2025 up to and including Friday, September 19, 2025.

2. This is Appellant’s first request to extend the time to file its brief.

3. Appellees Lime Rock Resources V-A, L.P., d/b/a Lime Rock Resources, L.P., and LRR Pecos Valley, LLC, are unopposed to this motion.

4. Appellant needs additional time to file its opening brief because counsel for Appellant, Denise Scofield and Brandon Duke, have been engaged in other litigation with imminent deadlines that that have required or will require significant attention from Appellant’s counsel. Those matters include significant drafting or other responsibilities relating to: • Motions to compel discovery due August 6, 2025 in Certain Underwriters, et al., v. Cameron International Corporation, No. CJ- 22-3088 (Okla. Dist.); • Discovery responses and dismissal hearing and discovery responses due August 22, 2025 in Black Mountain SWD, LP v. NGL Water Solutions Permian, LLC, No. 342-361826-25 (Tex. 342nd Dist.); • Discovery responses due August 22, 2025 in Black Mountain SWD, LP v. NGL Water Solutions Permian, LLC, No. 342-361826-25 (Tex. 342nd Dist.); • Motion to dismiss due August 22, 2025 in State of Texas v. TikTok Ltd., et al., No. D-1-GN-25-003118 (Tex. 250th Dist.); and • Response to motion to compel discovery due August 25, 2025 in Certain Underwriters, et al., v. Cameron International Corporation, No. CJ-22-3088 (Okla. Dist.).

Additionally, lead counsel for Appellant is scheduled for medical treatment at MD Anderson on August 12. Considering the press of these other matters, counsel for Appellant needs a thirty-day extension to compete the opening brief.

6. This extension is sought in the interest of justice, not for delay, and no party will be prejudiced if the request for an extension is granted.

7. For these reasons, NGL respectfully requests that this Court grant a thirty-day extension to file its response brief to Friday, September 19, 2025.
