On April 30, 2026, Permian Resources Operating, LLC (“OpCo”), a consolidated subsidiary of Permian Resources Corporation (“Permian Resources” and, together with OpCo, the “Company”) (NYSE: PR), entered into a new Credit Agreement (the “New Credit Agreement”) among OpCo, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), and the lenders party thereto (together with the Administrative Agent, the “Lenders”), providing for a $3.0 billion senior unsecured credit facility. The New Credit Agreement replaces the Prior Credit Agreement (as defined below).

The New Credit Agreement has a scheduled maturity date of April 30, 2031 and includes an option for OpCo to extend the term for successive one-year periods, subject to, among certain other terms and conditions, the consent of the Lenders holding greater than 50% of the commitments then outstanding under the New Credit Agreement. The New Credit Agreement commits the Lenders to provide advances up to an aggregate principal amount of $3.0 billion outstanding at any given time, with an option for OpCo to request increases in the aggregate commitments to an amount not to exceed $4.0 billion, subject to certain terms and conditions. The New Credit Agreement also includes a swingline subfacility and a letter of credit subfacility.

Borrowings under the New Credit Agreement will accrue interest based, at OpCo’s option, on either the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) plus an applicable margin, or the Alternate Base Rate (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin used in connection with interest rates, as well as commitment fees for undrawn commitments, will be based on OpCo’s credit rating for its long-term senior unsecured indebtedness for borrowed money (not supported by third-party credit enhancement) at the applicable time. As of April 30, 2026, the applicable margin for SOFR and Alternate Base Rate Loans is 150 basis points and 50 basis points, respectively, and the commitment fee is 20 basis points.

The New Credit Agreement contains representations, warranties, covenants and events of default that OpCo believes are customary for investment grade, senior unsecured commercial bank credit agreements, including a financial covenant for the maintenance of a ratio of Total Indebtedness to Capitalization Ratio (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) of no greater than 65%.

The Lenders and their respective affiliates have, from time to time, performed, and may in the future perform, various financial advisory and investment banking services for the Company and its affiliates, for which they received or will receive customary fees and expenses. The above description of the New Credit Agreement is a summary and does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the New Credit Agreement, which is attached and filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

On April 30, 2026, in connection with OpCo’s entry into the New Credit Agreement, OpCo terminated that certain Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of February 18, 2022 (as amended, supplement and amended and supplement, the “Prior Credit Agreement”) among OpCo, the lenders party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent. The Prior Credit Agreement and the credit facility thereunder were terminated by OpCo without penalty. The Prior Credit Agreement was set to mature in February 2028 and, as of April 30, 2026, OpCo had a borrowing base of $4.0 billion and $2.5 billion in elected commitments thereunder.

The lenders and their respective affiliates have, from time to time, performed, and may in the future perform, various financial advisory and investment banking services for the Company and its affiliates, for which they received or will receive customary fees and expenses.

The information set forth under Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.
