INFORMATION REQUIRED IN REGISTRATION STATEMENT

Item 1.         Description of Registrant's Securities to be Registered.

The securities to be registered hereby are the Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) and warrants to purchase Common Stock (together with the Common Stock, the “Securities”) of HighPeak Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Registrant”).

A description of the Securities is set forth under the captions “Description of HighPeak Energy Securities” in the prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which prospectus constitutes a part of the Registrant’s Registration Statement on Form S-4/S-1 (Registration No. 333-235313), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on August 5, 2020, and declared effective by the Commission on August 7, 2020. Such prospectus, in the form in which it is so filed, shall be deemed to be incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.         Exhibits.

Pursuant to the Instructions as to Exhibits with respect to Form 8-A, no exhibits are required to be filed because no other securities of the Registrant are registered on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC and the securities registered hereby are not being registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

SIGNATURE

Pursuant to the requirements of Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereto duly authorized.
