This Amendment No. 13 to the Statement on Schedule 13D amends and supplements the Statement on Schedule 13D originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 24, 2016, as previously amended on January 10, 2017, March 3, 2017, June 2, 2017, September 28, 2017, November 16, 2017, January 5, 2018, February 15, 2018, February 23, 2018, March 23, 2018, January 25, 2019, June 13, 2019 and on March 17, 2021 which relates to shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Shares”), of GOODRICH PETROLEUM CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). The Issuer’s principal executive offices are located at 801 Louisiana St., Suite 700, Houston, Texas, 77002.

Except as provided herein, this Amendment No. 13 to Schedule 13D does not modify any of the information previously reported on such Schedule 13D, including any amendment thereto. The information herein is provided and is correct as of November 30, 2021. Unless otherwise indicated, each capitalized term used but not defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to such term in such Schedule 13D as originally filed.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

The following paragraph is added to Item 4:

On November 21, 2021, the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Merger Agreement”) with Paloma Partners VI Holdings, LLC (“Parent”), and Paloma VI Merger Sub, Inc., which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), whereby, among other things, Merger Sub would commence a tender offer to acquire all of the Issuer’s outstanding Shares for $23.00 per Share in cash (the “Tender Offer”). The Merger Agreement and the Tender Offer were unanimously approved by the Issuer’s board of directors. The Tender Offer is subject to customary conditions, including the tender of a majority of the outstanding Shares.

Also on November 21, 2021, in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Franklin Advisers, Inc. as investment manager on behalf of certain funds and accounts (“FAV”), entered into a Tender and Support Agreement (the “Support Agreement”) with Parent, Merger Sub and, solely with respect to certain provisions thereunder, the Issuer. Pursuant to the Support Agreement, FAV has agreed, among other things, to (i) validly tender or cause to be validly tendered pursuant to and in accordance with the Tender Offer all Shares that may be beneficially owned by FAV and not to withdraw or cause to be withdrawn any such Shares from the Tender Offer unless and until the Support Agreement is terminated, and (ii) not vote any Shares that may be beneficially owned by FAV in favor or, and will vote against or not consent to, any acquisition proposal other than the Merger and related transactions, or that could impede, interfere with, prevent or delay the consummation of the Merger or the related transactions. Pursuant to the Support Agreement, FAV granted an irrevocable proxy to Parent for voting the Shares that may be beneficiary owned by FAV in connection with the Merger and related transactions. FAV further agreed not to transfer any Shares subject to the Support Agreement, other than with the prior written consent of Parent or the Issuer, subject to certain limited exceptions.

The Support Agreement will automatically terminate upon the earliest to occur of (i) the mutual written agreement of Parent and FAV, (ii) the termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms, (iii) the effective time of the Merger, (iv) the occurrence of an Adverse Recommendation Change (as defined in the Merger Agreement) in compliance with the provisions of the Merger Agreement, and (v) the date of any amendment to the Merger Agreement that reduces or changes the amount or form of consideration payable in the Tender Offer or the Merger.

The description and summary of the Support Agreement set forth above in this Item 4 does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Support Agreement, which is incorporated by reference as Exhibit E to this Schedule 13D and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

((a-b) FAV is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Franklin Resources, Inc. ("FRI"). FAV may be deemed to beneficially own the Securities for purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act"), in its capacity as the investment adviser to the Funds pursuant to investment management contracts that grant investment and/or voting power to FAV. When an investment management contract (including a sub-advisory agreement) delegates to FAV investment discretion or voting power over the securities held in the investment advisory accounts that are subject to that agreement, FRI treats FAV as having sole investment discretion or voting authority, as the case may be, unless the agreement specifies otherwise. Accordingly, FAV, as an investment management subsidiary, reports on Schedule 13D that it has sole investment discretion and voting authority over the securities covered by any such investment management agreement.

Beneficial ownership by FRI, FAV and their affiliates is being reported in conformity with the guidelines articulated by the SEC staff in Release No. 34-39538 (January 12, 1998) relating to organizations, such as FRI, where related entities exercise voting and

investment powers over the securities being reported independently from each other. The voting and investment powers held by each of FRI’s affiliates whose ownership of securities is disaggregated from that of FRI in accordance with the 1998 Release (“FRI

Disaggregated Affiliates”) are exercised independently from FRI and from all other investment management subsidiaries of FRI (FRI, its affiliates and the investment management subsidiaries of FRI other than FRI Disaggregated Affiliates are collectively, “FRI

Aggregated Affiliates”). Furthermore, internal policies and procedures of, on the one hand, FRI Disaggregated Affiliates, and, on the other hand, FRI establish informational barriers that prevent the flow among, on the one hand, FRI Disaggregated Affiliates

(including preventing the flow between such entities), and, on the other hand, the FRI Aggregated Affiliates of information that relates to the voting and investment powers over the securities owned by their respective investment management clients.

Consequently, FRI Disaggregated Affiliates report the securities over which they hold investment and voting power separately from the FRI Aggregated Affiliates for purposes of Section 13 of the Act.

CUSIP NO. 382410843 Page 7 of 13

Charles B. Johnson and Rupert H. Johnson, Jr. (the “Principal Shareholders”) each own in excess of 10% of FRI’s outstanding common stock and are the principal stockholders of FRI. FRI and the Principal Shareholders may be deemed to be, for purposes of Rule 13d‑3 under the Act, the beneficial owners of securities held by persons and entities for whom or for which FRI’s subsidiaries provide investment management services. The number of shares that may be deemed to be beneficially owned and the percentage of the class of which such shares are a part are reported in Items 11 and 13 of the cover pages for FRI and each of the Principal Shareholders. Items 11 and 13 of the cover pages for FAV, FRI and each of the Principal Shareholders are incorporated herein by reference. FRI, the Principal Shareholders and FAV disclaim any pecuniary interest in any of the Securities. In addition, the filing of the Schedule 13D on behalf of the Principal Shareholders, FRI and FAV should not be construed as an admission that any of them is, and each disclaims that it is, the beneficial owner, as defined in Rule 13d 3, of any of the Securities.

FRI, the Principal Shareholders and FAV believe that they are not a “group” within the meaning of Rule 13d 5 under the Act and that they are not otherwise required to attribute to each other the beneficial ownership of the Securities held by any of them or by any persons or entities for whom or for which FAV provides investment management services
