Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
|
On September 19, 2024, Diamondback Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting
agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with certain stockholders of the Company (the “Selling Stockholders”) and Evercore Group L.L.C., Citigroup Global Markets
Inc. and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”), pursuant to which, among other things, (i) the
Selling Stockholders agreed to sell to the Underwriters, and the Underwriters agreed to purchase from the Selling Stockholders, shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Shares”)
in a registered public offering (the “Secondary Offering”) and (ii) the Company agreed to purchase 2,000,000 of the Shares at a price per share equal to the price per
share paid by the Underwriters to the Selling Stockholders (the “Repurchase”), in each case subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth therein. The
Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements of the Company and the Selling Stockholders and other customary obligations of the parties and termination provisions.
On September 23, 2024, the Company and the Selling Stockholders completed the Secondary Offering of 14,385,500 Shares, which includes 1,615,500 Shares that were purchased
by the Underwriters pursuant to a 30-day option that certain of the Selling Stockholders had granted to the Underwriters, which such option was exercised by the Underwriters in full.
The Company did not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the Shares in the Secondary Offering.
The foregoing description of the Underwriting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of
the Underwriting Agreement, which is included as Exhibit 1.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.
The Shares offered and sold in the Secondary Offering were registered under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to the Company’s automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-282225), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September
19, 2024 (the “Registration Statement”), which was effective upon filing, and were offered pursuant to the prospectus supplement dated September 19, 2024, which was filed by the Company in its final form with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act on September 23, 2024.
On September 19, 2024, the Company issued (i) a press release announcing the launch of the Secondary Offering and (ii) a press release announcing the pricing of the Secondary Offering. Copies of these press releases are attached as Exhibits 99.1 and
