LETTER FROM OUR CO-CEOS William M. Hickey III & James H. Walter I April [ ], 2024 |  |

Dear Fellow Shareholders,

On behalf of the Board of Directors of Permian Resources Corporation, we are pleased to invite you to our 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, which will take place on May 22, 2024 at 9:00 a.m. Central Time at the Petroleum Club of Midland at 501 West Wall Street, Midland, TX 79701.

The past year marked a very successful first full year for Permian Resources Corporation. We completed the integration of the two legacy companies that combined in a merger-of-equals to form Permian Resources, delivered significant value to shareholders through our shareholder returns program, achieved our stated corporate goals and met or exceeded our public guidance for the year. Our year-end 2023 position was also strongly supported by our acquisition of Earthstone Energy, Inc., which enhanced our position as the second largest pure-play exploration and production company in the Permian Basin, which continues to be the most prolific basin in the United States. Thank you for your continued support.

We encourage you to review this Proxy Statement and to vote promptly so that your shares will be represented at the Annual Meeting. We also cordially invite you to attend the Annual Meeting. On behalf of the Board of Directors and management, we express our appreciation for your continued support of our company.

Sincerely,

| WILLIAM M. HICKEY III Co-Chief Executive Officer |  |  | JAMES H. WALTER Co-Chief Executive Officer

The Notice contains instructions on how to electronically access the proxy materials on the internet and how to vote your shares. Instructions for requesting a paper copy of the proxy materials are also contained in the Notice. Your vote is important. Whether or not you expect to attend the Annual Meeting, please vote as promptly as possible by using the internet or telephone voting procedures described in the Notice and in this Proxy Statement or by requesting a printed copy of the proxy materials (including the proxy card) and completing, signing and returning the enclosed proxy card by mail.

#### ACHIEVEMENTS DURING 2023

As referenced in the Letter from our Co-CEOs, this past year was extremely successful for Permian Resources Corporation (PR). It marked PR’s first full year after it was formed through the merger-of-equals (the PR Merger) between Centennial Resource Development, Inc. (Centennial) and Colgate Energy Partners III, LLC (Colgate). During 2023, PR completed the integration of legacy Centennial and Colgate, delivered significant value to shareholders through its shareholder returns program, achieved its stated corporate goals and met or exceeded all of its public guidance for 2023. PR’s year-end 2023 position was further strongly supported by its acquisition of Earthstone Energy, Inc. (Earthstone), which closed on November 1, 2023 (the Earthstone Acquisition) and which enhanced PR’s position as the second largest pure-play exploration and production company in the Permian Basin.

We are proud of our financial and operational performance for 2023, and some specific highlights of our accomplishments in 2023 and early 2024 are listed below.

| • | Closed $4.5 billion Earthstone Acquisition on November 1, 2023
| • | Delivered approximately $324 million, or $0.47 per share, in dividends to shareholders in 2023
| • | Repurchased 10 million shares through our share repurchase program at an average weighted price of $12.46 per share
| • | Generated Adjusted Free Cash Flow (1) of $711 million in 2023
| • | Met or outperformed all of PR’s standalone guidance, significantly exceeding production targets while remaining within original budget on capital expenditures and controllable cash costs
| • | Replaced greater than 100% of PR’s developed locations in 2023 through successful portfolio optimization transactions, effectively increasing inventory life
| • | Achieved total shareholder returns of approximately 49% during 2023

(1) | Adjusted Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. See Appendix A for a reconciliation of this financial measure to our most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP.

#### ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE (ESG) HIGHLIGHTS

We are committed to producing oil and natural gas in a way that creates long-term value for our stakeholders, which includes the commitment to do so in an ethical, inclusive, pragmatic and environmentally and socially responsible way. That commitment extends throughout our operations and includes a dedication to superior performance with respect to ESG matters.

During the Fall of 2023, we published our first Corporate Sustainability Report (the CSR) as PR, which is available on our website at https://permianres.com/sustainability. The CSR builds upon our prior ESG disclosures and covers our performance in environmental stewardship, regulatory compliance, health and safety, corporate governance, ethics, security, workforce diversity and development, wellbeing and community engagement matters.

The table below identifies some ESG highlights relating to 2023.

|  | Board Governance |  | • Refreshed board membership by appointing two new directors at closing of the Earthstone Acquisition • Reorganized committee structure to establish a separate Environmental, Social and Governance Committee with a dedicated focus on ESG matters
|  | Shareholder Alignment |  | • Our performance-focused compensation philosophy, coupled with one of the largest management ownership interests in the industry, drove differentiated shareholder alignment
|  | ESG Management & Oversight |  | • Maintained a dedicated Corporate Sustainability team that focuses entirely on ESG matters and regularly reported to the Environmental, Social and Governance Committee
|  | Water Recycling |  | • Recycled and reused 33.9 million barrels of water in 2023 • Decreased fresh water usage to 0.4 million barrels (1% of total water used in 2023) from 3.1 million barrels (8% of total water used in 2022)
|  | Flaring |  | • Flared only 2.7% of natural gas volumes in 2023
|  | Land Use |  | • Utilized multiple well pads and centralized production facilities, which reduce surface impact compared to single well pads and facilities • Limited both oil and produced water spills to approximately 0.002% of volumes produced in 2023
|  | Prioritizing Pipelines Over Trucks |  | • Transported over 98% of our produced water by pipeline, reducing trucking-related emissions, improving safety, minimizing the potential for spills and lessening the impact on local roads
|  | Responsibly Powering Our Operations |  | • Utilized infrastructure investment and advancement planning to operate 58 electric powered compressors in 2023, up from 35 in 2022 and further reducing the need for natural gas powered compressors
|  | Health & Safety |  | • Limited Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR) for employees and contractors to approximately 0.55

#### CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND COMPENSATION HIGHLIGHTS

We are committed to corporate governance and compensation practices that follow best processes, promote the long-term interests of our shareholders, strengthen our Board, foster management accountability and help build public trust in our company. The table below identifies some highlights.

BOARD & COMMITTEE STRUCTURE |  | GOVERNANCE PRACTICES |  | COMPENSATION PRACTICES
| Roles of Chair of the Board and Co-CEOs are separate |  |  | Board and Committee risk oversight |  |  | Our Co-CEOs receive compensation solely in performance-based equity awards
| Majority voting in uncontested director elections |  |  | Active shareholder engagement |  |  | Stock ownership guidelines
| Board committees include only independent directors |  |  | No employment agreements |  |  | Independent compensation consultant
| Diverse Board skills and experience |  |  | No shareholder rights (poison pill) or similar plan |  |  | Director compensation program enables compensation solely in equity awards
| Refreshed Board composition following PR Merger and Earthstone Acquisition |  |  | Non-hedging and non-pledging policies for our company securities |  |  | Compensation clawback policy
|  |  |  | Director education |  |  | Double-trigger required for change-in-control benefits
|  |  |  | Related person transactions policy |  |  | No tax gross-ups for change-in-control payments

##### 2023 Executive Compensation

Our Co-CEOs’ compensation consists entirely of long-term equity based compensation. They do not receive a base salary, annual bonus or any other form of cash compensation. Instead, 100% of their compensation is provided through performance stock units (PSUs). The PSUs are restricted stock unit awards subject to performance-based vesting, and the ultimate number of shares earned depends on the total shareholder returns (TSR) of Permian Resources on both an absolute basis and a relative basis to PR’s peer group.

In September 2022, on the closing date of the PR Merger, the Compensation Committee awarded PSUs to our Co-CEOs in an amount that was designed to represent the value of a three year-grant. These PSUs were divided into three equal tranches, with the performance periods for each tranche lasting approximately three, four and five years from the closing date of the PR Merger. The Compensation Committee took this approach to incentivize long-term value creation by our Co-CEOs. As a result, 100% of our Co-CEOs’ expected realized pay over their first three, four and five years as Co-CEOs of Permian Resources will depend entirely on PR’s TSR over the same time periods. Because the Co-CEOs’ PSU grants were designed to represent a three-year grant, the Compensation Committee does not intend to make any additional grants to our Co-CEOs until the end of the three year period.

## PROPOSAL 1:

Approval of Amendment to the Company’s Charter to Declassify the Board and Provide for the Annual Election of Directors

We are asking our shareholders to vote to approve a proposal to amend (the Declassification Amendment) the Company’s Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the Charter) to provide for the elimination of the classified structure of the Board and for the annual election of the directors. Declassifying the Board will allow the Company’s shareholders to vote on the election of our entire Board each year, rather than the three-year staggered basis that our current classified board structure requires. The description of the Declassification Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the proposed revisions, which are set forth under Article V in the form of Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (the Amended and Restated Charter) attached as Appendix B and incorporated into this Proxy Statement by reference. Additions are indicated by underlining, and deletions are indicated by strike-outs.

If Proposal 1 is approved by our shareholders, the Charter will be amended and restated to reflect the revisions contemplated by the Declassification Amendment (as well as certain non-substantive administrative updates and the other revisions contemplated by Proposal 4 below, if Proposal 4 is also approved by our shareholders) and the Amended and Restated Charter will become effective upon its filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, which is anticipated to occur as soon as practicable following voting by the shareholders at the Annual Meeting. If Proposal 1 is approved by our shareholders, the amendments will provide for the immediate annual election of all directors and for all eleven nominees for director to be proposed for re-election at the Annual Meeting (see Proposal 2 below). If the shareholders approve Proposal 1, but not Proposal 4, the Amended and Restated Charter will only reflect the revisions contemplated by the Declassification Amendment.

As of the date of distribution of this Proxy Statement, the Company’s directors whose terms do not expire at the Annual Meeting have acknowledged and agreed that if the Declassification Amendment is approved, their current terms shall end at the 2024 annual meeting of shareholders, and they will no longer be Class I or Class III directors, as applicable. If the Company’s shareholders do not approve the Declassification Amendment, the Board will remain classified, and the Company’s shareholders will instead be asked to elect only those three Class II directors proposed for election and discussed under Proposal 3 below.

If our shareholders do not approve this Proposal 1, the changes described in this section will not be made, and the Declassification Amendment described in this section will not take effect. The approval of this Proposal 1 is not conditioned upon approval of any of the other proposals, including the Exculpation Amendment proposal (Proposal 4).

#### CURRENT CLASSIFIED BOARD STRUCTURE

Under Article V of the Charter, the Board is currently separated into three classes as nearly equal in number as possible. Absent the earlier resignation or removal of a director, each year the shareholders are asked to elect the directors comprising one of the classes for a three-year term. The term of the current Class II directors is set to expire at the Annual Meeting. The term of the Class III directors is set to expire in 2025, and the term of the Class I directors is set to expire in 2026. Under the current classified board structure, shareholders may only elect approximately one-third of the Board each year.

#### RATIONALE FOR APPROVAL

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board carefully considered the advantages and disadvantages of amending the Charter to declassify the Board. While the Board believes that the classified board structure has historically helped promote continuity and stability, the Board and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recognize the sentiment of the Company’s shareholders and institutional investor groups in favor of the annual election of all directors, and the Board believes it is in the best interest of shareholders for the Company to declassify the Board.

The classified board structure has been in place at the Company since its predecessor, Centennial Resource Development, Inc., initially went public in 2016. In addition to other factors considered by the Board, the Board has taken note of the trend toward declassification among public companies within the exploration and production industry, as well as more broadly, and the particular prevalence of declassified board structures among the exploration and production companies that the Company views as peers. In making its decision to recommend declassification to the shareholders, the Board has recognized that an annual election fosters more immediate Board accountability, enables the Company’s shareholders to express a view on each director’s performance by means of an annual vote and supports the Company’s ongoing efforts to maintain “best practices” in corporate governance. Based on the foregoing, the Company is proposing the immediate elimination of its classified board at the Annual Meeting.

#### VOTE REQUIRED AND BOARD RECOMMENDATION

The approval of the Declassification Amendment proposal requires the affirmative vote of shareholders holding at least a majority of the outstanding voting stock of the Company voting together as a single class. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as votes “AGAINST” this Proposal 1.

| OUR BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE DECLASSIFICATION AMENDMENT PROPOSAL AS DISCUSSED ABOVE.

## PROPOSAL 2:

Election of Eleven Directors, if Proposal 1 is Approved

If the Company’s shareholders approve the Declassification Amendment described in Proposal 1 at the Annual Meeting, the shareholders will be asked to consider eleven nominees for election to the Board. Each nominee would serve for a one-year term until the 2025 annual meeting of shareholders of the Company. If the Company’s shareholders do not approve Proposal 1, the current classified board structure will remain in place and this Proposal 2 will not be submitted to a vote at the Annual Meeting, and instead Proposal 3 (Election of Three Class II Directors, if Proposal 1 is Not Approved) will be submitted in its place.

If prior to the Annual Meeting a nominee becomes unavailable to serve as a director, any shares represented by a proxy directing a vote will be voted for the remaining nominees and for any substitute nominee(s) designated by the Board. As of the mailing of these proxy materials, the Board has no reason to believe any director nominee would not be available to serve.

#### BOARD STRUCTURE

In connection with the Earthstone Acquisition, on November 1, 2023, (a) the Board increased the size of the Board to consist of eleven members, (b) Matthew G. Hyde resigned from the Board and (c) the Board appointed Robert J. Anderson and Frost W. Cochran to the Board.

The following table provides a snapshot of the current members of the Board and its committees.

#### DIRECTOR NOMINATION PROCESS

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of our Board identifies, evaluates and recommends director candidates to our Board with the goal of identifying individuals with a high level of personal and professional integrity, strong ethics and values and the ability to make mature business judgments. In evaluating director candidates, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may also consider certain other criteria as set forth in our Corporate Governance Guidelines, including:

| • | the candidate’s experience in corporate management, such as serving as an officer or former officer of a publicly held company;
| • | the candidate’s experience as a board member of another publicly held company and, in the case of an incumbent director, such director’s past performance on our Board;
| • | the candidate’s professional and academic experience relevant to our industry;
| • | the strength of the candidate’s leadership skills;
| • | the candidate’s experience in specialized areas of practice, including in the areas of finance and accounting; environmental, social and governance; human capital and executive compensation; and technology and cybersecurity;
| • | the diversity of the Board in terms of gender, race, ethnicity, age, sexual orientation, professional background and otherwise; and
| • | whether the candidate has the time required for preparation, participation and attendance at Board meetings and committee meetings, if applicable.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board monitor the mix of specific experience, qualifications and skills of our directors in order to ensure that the Board, as a whole, has the necessary tools to perform its oversight function effectively. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee identifies candidates through the personal, business and organizational contacts of the directors and management, as well as through executive search firms engaged by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee to assist in the process.

We are committed to building a diverse Board comprised of individuals from different backgrounds, including differences in viewpoints, education, gender, race or ethnicity, age and other individual qualifications and attributes. To further this commitment, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will continue to require that any search firm retained by the Committee to assist in a director search process present a diverse pool of candidates, including women, minority and other candidates of underrepresented communities.

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines require that each nominee for director sign and deliver to our Board an irrevocable letter of resignation that becomes effective if (a) the nominee does not receive a majority of the votes cast in an uncontested election, and (b) the Board decides to accept the resignation. The Board has received such conditional letters of resignation from each of the nominees named in Proposal 2.

While the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider nominees suggested by shareholders, it did not receive any shareholder nominations for the Annual Meeting prior to the deadline for such nominations.

Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be counted as votes cast and, therefore, will not have an effect on the outcome of the election of directors.

| OUR BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE ELECTION OF EACH OF THE DIRECTOR NOMINEES NAMED ABOVE.

We have a Risk Management Committee comprised of our Chief Financial Officer and General Counsel, and such other officers and employees as may be appointed from time to time by the committee. The Risk Management Committee meets regularly to identify, assess and manage our risk exposures and periodically reports significant risk exposures to the Board or one or more of the Board’s committees.

Our Board, directly and through its committees, oversees our management of risk exposures. Specifically, our Board is responsible for ensuring that the risk management processes designed and implemented by management are adequate to address the risks we face and function as intended. Accordingly, during the course of each year, the Board:

| • | Reviews and approves management’s operating plans and considers any risks that could affect operating results;
| • | Reviews the structure and operation of our various departments and functions; and
| • | Reviews related risk analyses and mitigation plans in connection with its review and approval of particular transactions and initiatives.

The Board has delegated certain risk oversight responsibility to its committees. The following table identifies the primary risk oversight of each committee.

#### BOARD INDEPENDENCE

The New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) listing rules require that a majority of the board of directors of a company listed on the NYSE be composed of “independent directors,” which is generally defined as a person who the board of directors determines has no “material relationship” with the company. Our Board has determined that Robert Anderson, Maire Baldwin, Frost Cochran, Karan Eves, Steven Gray, Aron Marquez, Jeffrey Tepper and Robert Tichio are independent within the meaning of the NYSE listing rules. Further, our Board has determined that Messrs. Cochran and Tepper, as well as Mses. Baldwin and Eves, the current members of the Audit Committee, are independent with the meaning of Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act.

#### BOARD LEADERSHIP STRUCTURE

We have no policy with respect to the separation of the offices of Chair of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. In 2022, in connection with the retirement of Sean Smith, who served as our Executive Chair from the PR Merger closing until December 31, 2022, the Board appointed Steven Gray as independent Board Chair.

Our Board believes this leadership structure permits our Co-CEOs to focus their attention on setting the strategic direction of our company and managing our business while allowing the Chair to function as an important liaison between our management and the Board, enhancing the ability of the Board to provide oversight of the Company’s management and affairs.

#### SUCCESSION PLANNING

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee oversees and approves plans for succession planning. As it relates to CEO succession planning, the Committee identifies the qualities and characteristics necessary for an effective CEO or Co-CEO and monitors and reviews the development and progression of potential candidates against these standards. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also regularly consults with our Co-CEOs on senior management succession planning.

PERMIAN RESOURCES | 2024 PROXY STATEMENT | 21

#### CLASSIFIED BOARD STRUCTURE

In the past, the Board, in consultation with the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, determined that a classified board structure was appropriate for the Company since it may foster stability, continuity and experience within our Board. However, as discussed under Proposal 1, based on the Board’s and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s desire to maintain best practices in corporate governance and on input received from the Company’s shareholders, the Board has determined that a declassified board structure may be more appropriate for the Company and in the best interests of our shareholders at this time. The annual election of all directors fosters more immediate Board accountability, enables the Company’s shareholders to express a view on each director’s performance by means of an annual vote and supports the Company’s ongoing efforts to maintain “best practices” in corporate governance. In particular, peers of our size and scope generally opt for a declassified board structure.

If our shareholders vote to approve the Declassification Amendment described in Proposal 1, our directors will no longer be separated into three classes and will instead form one class subject to annual election. If the shareholders do not approve the Declassification Amendment described in Proposal 1, our Board will continue to be classified into three classes as nearly equal in number as possible. See Proposal 1 above for a more detailed discussion.

#### MAJORITY VOTE IN DIRECTOR ELECTIONS

Our governance documents provide for a majority voting standard in uncontested director elections. As a result, the election of the director nominees named in Proposal 2 and Proposal 3 requires that each director be elected by a majority of the votes cast, as may be applicable, meaning that the number of shares voted “FOR” a nominee must exceed the number of shares voted “AGAINST” such nominee. We believe that this majority voting standard in uncontested director elections gives our shareholders a greater voice in determining the composition of our Board than a plurality voting standard. For any director election where the number of director nominees exceeds the number of directors to be elected (in other words, a contested election), a plurality voting standard continues to apply pursuant to our governance documents.

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines include a director resignation policy to address the issue of any “holdover” director who is not re-elected but remains a director because his or her successor has not been elected or appointed. This policy requires each incumbent director that is nominated by our Board for re-election to tender an irrevocable resignation letter to the Board prior to the mailing of the proxy statement for the meeting at which such nominee is to be re-elected as director. If such incumbent director is not re-elected by a majority vote in an uncontested election, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider the tendered resignation and make a recommendation to our Board whether to accept or reject the resignation. The Board would then, after taking into account the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, accept or reject such tendered resignation generally within 90 days following certification of the election results. Thereafter, we would publicly disclose the decision of the Board and, if applicable, the Board’s reasons for rejecting a tendered resignation. If a director’s tendered resignation is rejected, such director would continue to serve until a successor is elected, or until such director’s earlier removal or death. If a director’s tendered resignation is accepted, then the Board could fill any resulting vacancy or decrease the number of directors.

#### BOARD MEETINGS

Our Board conducts its business through meetings of the Board, actions taken by written consent in lieu of meetings and by the actions of its committees. During 2023, the Board held 16 meetings and each of our directors attended at least 75% of the meetings of the Board and the Board committees on which they served.

## AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed with management of the Company and KPMG LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, the audited financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (the Audited Financial Statements).

The Audit Committee has discussed with KPMG LLP the matters required to be discussed by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) Auditing Standard No. 1301, as in effect on the date of this Proxy Statement.

Based on the reviews and discussions described above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the Audited Financial Statements be included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 for filing with the SEC.

Respectfully submitted,

#### EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This past year was the first full year for PR, which was formed through a merger-of-equals of Centennial and Colgate in September 2022. PR had a very successful 2023, during which it completed the integration of the legacy Centennial and Colgate assets, achieved its corporate goals, met or exceeded all of its public guidance for the year and delivered significant value to shareholders through its shareholder returns program. PR’s year-end 2023 position was also strongly supported by its Earthstone Acquisition, which closed on November 1, 2023 and which enhanced PR’s position as the second largest pure-play exploration and production company in the Permian Basin.

In this Compensation Discussion and Analysis (CD&A) section, we will describe our approach to executive compensation, which we first put in place in 2022 in connection with closing the PR Merger. The most noteworthy feature to our program is that our Co-CEOs do not receive any form of cash compensation and instead receive 100% of their compensation in the form of long-term incentive awards structured as performance stock units. Our executive and director compensation programs also reflect an emphasis on performance stock units for our other named executive officers and provide directors with the option to receive 100% of their annual compensation in the form of PR stock rather than through a mix of stock and cash. We believe our compensation programs strongly align compensation with shareholder returns and take a fresh approach to compensation that differentiates us from our peers.

In connection with closing the PR Merger, the Compensation Committee also approved “inaugural” equity awards to our officers and employees. While granted in September 2022, we view these awards as forming a part of the 2023 compensation program since they essentially accelerated the issuance of the awards the Compensation Committee would have granted during spring 2023. Therefore, we describe these inaugural awards in this CD&A section for context, even though the awards are treated as 2022 awards under the SEC’s rules in the compensation-related tables included in the Executive Compensation section below. Since the inaugural equity awards that were granted in September 2022 replaced the spring 2023 awards, we did not provide any equity awards to continuing officers and employees in 2023, and the next annual award cycle occurred in February 2024.

References in this CD&A section to our company, our executive officers and our Compensation Committee refer, prior to the PR Merger, to Centennial and its executive officers and Compensation Committee. In contrast, when those terms are used in relation to the period on or after the closing date of the PR Merger, they refer to PR and its executive officers and Compensation Committee.

##### Named Executive Officers

In this CD&A section, we describe the material elements of our executive compensation program for the executive officers who were our Named Executive Officers (NEOs) for 2023, as determined under the SEC’s rules. The narrative discussion set forth in this CD&A section is intended to provide additional information related to the compensation-related tables included throughout the Executive Compensation section below.

Our NEOs for 2023 are:

EXECUTIVE |  | TITLE
William M. Hickey |  | Co-Chief Executive Officer
James H. Walter |  | Co-Chief Executive Officer
Guy M. Oliphint |  | Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer
John C. Bell |  | Executive Vice President and General Counsel
Brent P. Jensen |  | Senior Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer
George S. Glyphis |  | Former Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer
Matthew R. Garrison |  | Former Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer

Mr. Glyphis, the Company’s former Chief Financial Officer, resigned from his position on March 1, 2023, and he was succeeded by Mr. Oliphint. Thereafter, Mr. Glyphis served as a Senior Advisor to the Company through May 4, 2023. Mr. Garrison, the Company’s former Chief Operating Officer, resigned from his position on September 1, 2023.

##### Our Approach to Co-CEO Compensation

Our Co-CEOs’ compensation consists entirely of long-term equity-based compensation. They do not receive a base salary, annual bonus or any other form of cash compensation. Instead, 100% of their compensation is provided through performance stock units (PSUs). The PSUs are restricted stock unit awards subject to performance-based vesting, and the ultimate number of shares earned depends on the total shareholder return (TSR) of Permian Resources on both an absolute basis and a relative basis to PR’s peer group.

In September 2022, on the closing date of the PR Merger, the Compensation Committee awarded PSUs to our Co-CEOs in an amount that was designed to represent the value of a three-year grant. These PSUs were divided into three equal tranches, with the performance periods for each tranche lasting approximately three, four and five years from the closing date of the PR Merger. The Compensation Committee took this approach to incentivize long-term value creation by our Co-CEOs. As a result, 100% of our Co-CEOs’ expected realized pay over their first three, four and five years as Co-CEOs of Permian Resources will depend entirely on PR’s TSR over the same time periods. Because the Co-CEOs’ PSU grants were designed to represent a three-year grant, the Compensation Committee does not intend to make any additional grants to our Co-CEOs until the end of the three-year period.

The graph also compares our TSR with the TSR of the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY), a broad market ETF, as well as the SPDR S&P Oil & Gas Exploration and Production ETF (XOP), an ETF focused on the U.S. oil and gas exploration and production industry. These TSR measures reflect both share price appreciation and the dividends paid during 2023.

2023 Total Shareholder Returns

We are very pleased with our 2023 TSR. While our industry and the companies in our peer group generally all experienced strong TSRs in 2023 due to supportive commodity prices, among other factors, our 2023 TSR set us apart given the relative outperformance to the peer average and SPY and XOP ETFs. For a list of the companies in our performance peer group, see the “Use of Competitive Market Data” section below.

Our TSR outperformance is even more pronounced in the period following the closing date of the PR Merger. The graphic below compares our TSR to the same peer group and ETFs from the closing date of the PR Merger through March 26, 2024. We believe this outperformance helps illustrate the value created by the PR Merger and consequently the Earthstone Acquisition. Please note that our historic stock price performance is not necessarily indicative of future stock price performance.

##### Response to 2023 Say-on-Pay Vote and Shareholder Outreach

At our 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, over 99% of the votes cast by our shareholders supported our “say-on-pay” proposal. The Compensation Committee took the results of this “say-on-pay” vote into account when evaluating the design of the Permian Resources compensation program. Based on these results and feedback received from our shareholders more recently, the Compensation Committee believes our shareholders generally support the Committee’s compensation decisions.

We believe that maintaining an open dialogue with our shareholders provides critical feedback for our Board, Compensation Committee and management team on a wide range of topics including our short- and long-term business strategy, financial and operational performance, ESG matters, governance practices, executive compensation program and other matters of importance.

During 2023, our management team conducted approximately 225 meetings with current and potential institutional shareholders and has met with 23 of the Company’s 30 largest shareholders. Our 30 largest shareholders collectively held about 65% of our outstanding shares of common stock at the end of 2023.

##### Compensation Arrangements for Officer Departures

Compensation Arrangements with Mr. Glyphis

Mr. Glyphis served as our Chief Financial Officer until March 1, 2023 and then served for a transition period as a Senior Advisor until his departure from the Company on May 4, 2023. This resignation constituted a qualifying termination under the change-in-control Severance Plan that was in place at Centennial when the PR Merger closed (the Centennial Severance Plan) as the PR Merger was deemed to be a “Change in Control” for purposes of the Centennial Severance Plan and he resigned for “Good Reason” by choosing not to relocate from Denver to the Company’s headquarters in Midland, Texas. As a result, Mr. Glyphis received change-in-control severance benefits under the Centennial Severance Plan. In recognition of his service between the closing date of the PR Merger and May 4, 2023, the Compensation Committee also approved a pro rata settlement of the equity awarded to him on the closing date of the PR Merger. Additional information on the cash and equity severance benefits provided to Mr. Glyphis is included in the Potential Payments Upon Termination or a Change in Control section appearing in the Executive Compensation section.

Compensation Arrangements with Mr. Garrison

Mr. Garrison served as our Chief Operating Officer until September 1, 2023 when he resigned for personal reasons. In recognition of his service between the closing date of the PR Merger and September 1, 2023, as well as certain post-employment non-competition, non-solicitation and other customary restrictive covenants, the Compensation Committee approved the payment of a pro rata 2023 target cash bonus and the pro rata settlement of certain equity awards held by Mr. Garrison. Additional information on the cash and equity severance benefits provided to Mr. Garrison is included in the Potential Payments Upon Termination or a Change in Control section appearing in the Executive Compensation section.

##### Compensation Best Practices

The Compensation Committee believes that our executive compensation program follows best practices and is aligned with long-term shareholder interests. Below are highlights of our current compensation practices.

WHAT WE DO |  | WHAT WE DON’T DO
| Pay for Performance. Align our executives’ compensation with our financial, operational and stock price performance by having 100% of our Co-CEOs’ (and a majority of our other NEO’s) total compensation consist of variable or Performance-based compensation. |  |  | Hedging or Pledging of Company Securities. We do not allow hedging or pledging of Company securities by directors, NEOs or other officers or employees.
| Ownership Guidelines. Maintain robust Stock Ownership Guidelines that apply to all of our officers and independent directors. |  |  | Tax Gross-Ups. We do not provide tax gross-ups for severance or change in control payments to our NEOs or other officers or employees.
| Review Market Data. At least annually, conduct a review of market data of peer group companies to ensure competitive compensation relative to the market. |  |  | Excessive Perquisites. We do not provide significant perquisites to any of our NEOs or other officers or employees.
| Compensation Consultant. Use an independent compensation consultant retained by, and reporting directly to, the Compensation Committee. |  |  | Employment Agreements. We do not have employment agreements with our NEOs or other officers or employees.
| Clawback Policy. Maintain a clawback policy that applies to our NEOs. |  |  | Guarantee Bonuses. We do not guarantee bonuses to any of our NEOs or other officers or employees.
| Double-Trigger Change in Control Benefits. Maintain a Severance Plan where change in control benefits are only provided upon a qualifying termination of employment following a change in control transaction. |  |  | Repricing of Options. We do not permit repricing of underwater stock options without shareholder approval.
| ESG. Include ESG performance goals in the AIP, including metrics tied specifically to our commitment to reduce flaring and spills and to ensure the safety of our workforce. |  |  |
| Risk Assessments. Conduct an annual risk assessment of compensation practices to facilitate risk management. |  |  |
| Relative and Absolute TSR. Determine payout of performance stock units based on both our TSR relative to peer group and our absolute annualized TSR. |  |  |
| AIP Maximum. Establish maximum AIP payout of 200% of each NEO’s target AIP compensation. |  |  |
| Evolving Program. Adapt compensation program based on shareholder feedback and evolving market standards. |  |  |

#### 2023 EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PROGRAM

##### Elements of 2023 Compensation Program

The primary elements of our executive compensation program and the purpose of each component are summarized in the following table. Our Co-CEOs’ compensation consists entirely of PSUs.

As mentioned above, the Compensation Committee approved “inaugural” equity awards to the then-serving NEOs on September 1, 2022. While granted in 2022, we view these awards as forming an integral part of the 2023 executive compensation program since they accelerated the issuance of awards the Compensation Committee would have granted during spring 2023. Therefore, these awards are included in this section describing our 2023 compensation program.

TYPE | ELEMENT | PURPOSE | CO-CEO COMPENSATION
Fixed | Base Salary | • Attract and retain qualified executives • Provide a level of fixed pay based on the executive’s role, skills, experience and performance |
Variable | Annual Incentive Program (AIP) | • Incentivize achievement of the Company’s and executive’s short-term financial, operational and strategic goals • Align executives’ interests with those of our shareholders |
Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) | Restricted Stock | • Align realized values with shareholder returns • Promote retention of executives • Promote stock ownership by executives |
Performance Stock Units (PSUs) | • Reward absolute shareholder returns • Reward shareholder returns relative to industry peers • Promote retention of executives |

##### 2023 Compensation Mix

A significant portion of our executive compensation is performance-based. The graphics below show the mix of compensation elements for our Co-CEOs (on the left) and our other NEOs (on the right). For each graphic, the compensation mix reflects the executive’s base salary and target compensation levels for the AIP and LTIP. The LTIP element includes the “inaugural” equity awards granted to our NEOs in September 2022, which we view as forming a part of the 2023 compensation program. Each graphic also identifies the portion of the compensation that is variable or “at-risk,” which refers to compensation elements that are only earned based on achievement of performance goals or through continued employment through the award’s vesting period. The ultimate realized value of these variable compensation elements, if earned at all, fluctuates or depends on Company performance as determined by the Compensation Committee, as well as our stock price.

As shown in the graphics, our executive compensation is heavily weighted towards variable or “at-risk” compensation elements, particularly for our Co-CEOs whose compensation is 100% performance-based.

##### Base Salaries

We pay market competitive base salaries to our NEOs (other than Messrs. Hickey and Walter, who do not receive cash compensation) to attract and retain qualified executives. In setting our NEOs’ base salaries, the Compensation Committee considers the role, skills, experience and performance of each executive, as well as industry and market conditions and competitive market data within our peer group and industry.

In early 2023, after considering the market analysis and advice of Meridian Compensation Partners, LLC (Meridian), an independent compensation consultant retained by the Compensation Committee, the Compensation Committee set Mr. Oliphint’s starting salary and maintained the existing base salaries for the other NEOs as the Committee believed the existing base salaries for the other NEOs remained appropriate.

EXECUTIVE |  | BASE SALARY (2022) |  |  | BASE SALARY (2023) |
William M. Hickey |  |  | – |  |  | $ | – |
James H. Walter |  |  | – |  |  | $ | – |
Guy M. Oliphint |  |  | N/A |  |  | $ | 450,000 |
Brent P. Jensen |  | $ | 377,000 |  |  | $ | 377,000 |
John C. Bell |  | $ | 375,000 |  |  | $ | 375,000 |
George S. Glyphis |  | $ | 478,000 |  |  | $ | 478,000 |
Matthew R. Garrison |  | $ | 454,740 |  |  | $ | 454,740 |

##### Annual Incentive Program (AIP)

Our Annual Incentive Program (AIP) is designed to promote the achievement of annual financial, operational and strategic goals that are aligned with the creation of shareholder value.

In connection with adopting the 2023 AIP in early 2023, the Compensation Committee set an AIP target for each NEO, expressed as a percentage of the NEO’s year-end base salary. The Compensation Committee set Mr. Oliphint’s target at 90% of his base salary, a target that the Compensation Committee determined to be appropriate for Mr. Oliphint in his initial year as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. The Compensation Committee evaluated the targets for the other NEOs and determined that they were competitive and appropriate assuming all the Company’s and NEO’s goals were attained at target levels. Accordingly, the targets for the continuing NEOs remained unchanged from 2022 levels.

The following table presents the AIP targets as a percent of salary for each NEO at the end of 2022 and 2023. None of the NEOs have a minimum or guaranteed bonus under the AIP, and the maximum payout for each NEO is 200% of the NEO’s target AIP compensation.

EXECUTIVE |  | 2022 TARGET |  | 2023 TARGET
William M. Hickey |  | 0% |  | 0%
James H. Walter |  | 0% |  | 0%
Guy M. Oliphint |  | N/A |  | 90%
John C. Bell |  | 80% |  | 80%
Brent P. Jensen |  | 85% |  | 85%
George S. Glyphis |  | 100% |  | 100%
Matthew R. Garrison |  | 95% |  | 95%

In early 2023, the Compensation Committee established the program weightings between different components of the AIP and approved the operational and financial metrics used for the scorecard portion of the AIP, as well as the quantitative and qualitative goals used for the ESG and Strategic components of the AIP. In choosing to allocate 40% of the AIP to the Strategic Initiatives and Discretionary portion of the AIP, the Compensation Committee determined that this level of discretion was appropriate for the 2023 AIP. The Compensation Committee also considered the unique ability of the Co-CEOs to provide impartial recommendations to the Committee on the AIP since the Co-CEOs do not participate in our Annual Incentive Program.

TRIR Target | 0.65 | 0.55
STRATEGIC/ DISCRETIONARY |  | Various — see below for goals and assessments |  |  | Exceeded, see commentary below

In evaluating the flaring metric, the Compensation Committee noted that the higher than targeted flaring level for 2023 was largely due to the activities of PR’s third party midstream gatherers and processors. When assessing the Company’s performance on the Strategic component of the AIP, the Compensation Committee recognized that the Company’s performance significantly exceeded the majority of its strategic objectives for 2023, which are outlined below.

COMPONENT |  | GOALS | ASSESSMENT
|  | • Achieve year-over-year growth in Net Asset Value (NAV) and NAV/Share | • Achieved significant NAV/Share growth in 2023 through Earthstone Acquisition, various other portfolio optimization transactions and prudent operations
|  | • Efficiently deploy Free Cash Flow within business, transactions and return of capital programs | • Effectively implemented return of capital strategy in 2023 by returning capital through all three prongs of the plan: $0.20 / share of cumulative base dividends; $0.27 / share of cumulative variable dividends and $125mm of share repurchases in 2023
|  | • Achieve average D&C for 2023 Wells of $990/ft | • Achieved average D&C of less than $990/ft for 2023 Wells
Strategic |  | • Engage in transactions that optimize PR’s capital structure | • Formalized framework for sponsor offerings and reduced sponsor ownership from ~50% to ~30% through successful equity offerings and direct share repurchases • Raised $1 billion of additional Senior Notes to refinance the Earthstone credit facility and to opportunistically term out additional borrowings on PR’s credit facility
|  | • Achieve expected oil production performance for wells turned on production by PR in 2023 | • Achieved oil production performance near top end of guidance range for 2023 PR

The Compensation Committee overall concluded that the Company had very strong performance during 2023, the inaugural year for Permian Resources, and that such performance was especially impressive when considering the extraordinary effort involved in integrating the legacy assets and companies of Colgate and Centennial during 2023. The Committee also strongly considered the strategic decision to pursue and close the Earthstone Acquisition and the significant synergies that the Company had already captured

PERMIAN RESOURCES | 2024 PROXY STATEMENT | 36

relating to those assets by year-end 2023. Finally, the Compensation Committee reviewed the Company’s TSR performance for 2023, which was approximately 49% year-over-year, a TSR level that significantly exceeded the average TSR performance of PR’s peer group during 2023.

In early 2024, the Compensation Committee evaluated the Company’s and each NEO’s performance during 2023 and approved the following cash amounts for the 2023 AIP.

EXECUTIVE |  | AIP CASH AWARD |
William M. Hickey(1) |  | $ | N/A |
James H. Walter(1) |  | $ | N/A |
Guy M. Oliphint |  | $ | 607,500 |
John C. Bell |  | $ | 450,000 |
Brent P. Jensen |  | $ | 480,675 |

(1) | Messrs. Hickey and Walter do not participate in the Annual Incentive Program.

Messrs. Glyphis and Garrison were not employed when the AIP cash awards were paid in March 2024, but they each received a pro rata target bonus for 2023 upon their departures.

##### Long-Term Incentive Program (LTIP)

Our Long-Term Incentive Program (LTIP) is designed to encourage long-term shareholder value creation through the program’s alignment with our TSR, both on an absolute basis and relative to industry peers. As shown above in the 2023 Compensation Mix, the LTIP is the most significant component in value of our executive compensation program.

In connection with closing the PR Merger in September 2022, the Compensation Committee approved “inaugural” Permian Resources LTIP awards to the Company’s officers and employees, including the continuing NEOs. While granted in 2022, we view these awards as forming a part of the 2023 compensation program since they essentially accelerated the issuance of the awards the Compensation Committee would have granted during spring 2023. Therefore, this section describes these inaugural awards even though the awards are treated as 2022 awards under SEC’s rules in the compensation-related tables included in the Executive Compensation section below. Since these inaugural equity awards, granted in September 2022, replaced the spring 2023 awards, the Compensation Committee did not provide any equity awards to continuing officers and employees in 2023, and the next annual award cycle occurred in February 2024.

The decision to accelerate the issuance of the inaugural awards to the closing date of the PR Merger was made by the Compensation Committee for several reasons, including:

| • | PSUs represented the majority of value for the NEO grants, and the Committee believed it appropriate for the grant date and performance period commencement date for the PSUs to align with the closing date of the PR Merger so that the PSUs tracked performance back to the origin of Permian Resources.
| • | All equity held by legacy Colgate NEOs and employees vested in connection with the PR Merger closing, so granting new awards concurrent with the PR Merger increased retention of key legacy Colgate employees.
| • | These LTIP Awards increased retention of key legacy Centennial employees, many of whom were eligible for severance benefits upon a qualifying termination under the Centennial Severance Plan.

Consistent with Centennial’s practice in prior years, the inaugural awards consisted of a combination of PSU awards and time-based restricted stock awards. As described above, 100% of our Co-CEOs’ compensation consists of PSUs. The Compensation Committee, with the support of the Co-CEOs, chose this structure to allow for full alignment between the Co-CEOs’ compensation and the TSR experienced by our shareholders. In determining the target LTIP award amount for the Co-CEOs, the Compensation Committee considered the Compensation Peer Group data provided by Meridian on CEO compensation, each Co-CEO’s role and ability to individually and jointly drive shareholder returns, the additional equity cost of having two CEOs and the cash savings of the Co-CEOs not receiving salaries or annual bonuses. Based on these considerations, the Compensation Committee set the target annual LTIP compensation for each Co-CEO at $5 million.

For the inaugural awards, the Compensation Committee awarded $15 million in PSUs to each Co-CEO, which was designed to represent the value of a three-year grant for the Co-CEOs, and the Compensation Committee does not intend to make any additional equity grants to either of the Co-CEOs until the end of such three-year period. Please note that the value of these three-year equity awards included in the 2022 Summary Compensation Table significantly increased the “Total Compensation” value for our Co-CEOs above the $5 million target annual LTIP compensation. However, since no additional equity awards were provided to the Co-CEOs in 2023, shareholders will note that the Co-CEOs “Stock Awards” total in 2023 was reduced to $0, and shareholders can expect this approach to continue over the remaining two years in the initial three-year period described above.

PERMIAN RESOURCES | 2024 PROXY STATEMENT | 37

Back to Contents |

In determining the target grant values for the other then-serving NEOs, the Compensation Committee considered the Compensation Peer Group data provided by Meridian, the other compensation received by each NEO, including historical data where applicable, and each NEO’s role and ability to influence and create long-term shareholder value. Based on these considerations, the Compensation Committee set Mr. Bell’s initial annual LTIP target compensation at $1,250,000 and affirmed the historical LTIP targets for Messrs. Glyphis, Garrison and Jensen. The Compensation Committee also increased the inaugural awards provided to these NEOs by a one-time 30% adjustment factor, which offset the longer than normal gap between the grant date of the inaugural awards and the February 2024 grant date for the next award cycle. Mr. Jensen’s award consisted entirely of restricted stock given the expectation, at the time, that he would likely transition out of the organization prior to the end of 2023.

When Mr. Oliphint joined the Company in 2023, the Compensation Committee set his initial annual LTIP target compensation at $3,150,000 based on the Compensation Peer Group data provided by Meridian, the Compensation Committee’s consideration of similar factors to those described above and in recognition of compensation he forfeited from his prior employer when he transitioned to Permian Resources.

The following table outlines the LTIP awards received by Mr. Oliphint in January 2023 and the remaining NEOs in September 2022, including target grant date values that are calculated based on the five-day average closing stock price ending on the day prior to the grant date.

EXECUTIVE |  | TARGET NUMBER OF PSUS GRANTED (#) |  |  | SHARES OF RESTRICTED STOCK GRANTED (#) |  |  | TOTAL GRANT DATE TARGET VALUE ($) |
William M. Hickey |  |  | 1,787,843 |  |  |  | — |  |  |  | 15,000,003 |
James H. Walter |  |  | 1,787,843 |  |  |  | — |  |  |  | 15,000,003 |
Guy M. Oliphint |  |  | 237,097 |  |  |  | 101,613 |  |  |  | 3,150,002 |
John C. Bell |  |  | 135,578 |  |  |  | 58,105 |  |  |  | 1,625,000 |
Brent P. Jensen |  |  | — |  |  |  | 193,683 |  |  |  | 1,625,000 |
George S. Glyphis |  |  | 250,123 |  |  |  | 107,196 |  |  |  | 2,997,906 |
Matthew R. Garrison |  |  | 181,892 |  |  |  | 77,954 |  |  |  | 2,180,108 |

##### Performance Stock Units (PSUs)

The PSUs granted to the NEOs (other than Messrs. Hickey and Walter) each have a performance period of approximately three years. As discussed above, the PSUs granted to Messrs. Hickey and Walter were designed to represent a three-year grant. These PSUs were therefore divided into three equal tranches with the performance period applicable to each tranche lasting approximately three, four and five years later. The Compensation Committee determined this approach to the PSUs was appropriate so that each tranche’s performance period ends when the performance period would have otherwise ended if the PSUs had been granted in a normal three-year cycle. The graphic appearing below highlights the performance periods for each of the PSUs granted to the NEOs.

PERMIAN RESOURCES | 2024 PROXY STATEMENT | 38

Back to Contents |

The number of PSUs that vest and become earned is determined based on the level of achievement with respect to both Relative TSR and Absolute TSR performance metrics. The following sections describe the performance multipliers that would apply to the PSU awards at each level of achievement.

##### Relative TSR

The PSUs vest and become earned at the end of their respective performance period based on our TSR ranking relative to our performance peer group (Relative TSR), with linear interpolation used to determine the vesting level between percentiles listed in the Relative TSR table below. As in prior years, the Compensation Committee also included the SPDR S&P Oil & Gas Exploration & Production ETF (XOP) in the performance peer group for the PSUs so that our Relative TSR is also measured against a broader basket of energy companies against whom we compete for capital. The full makeup of the performance peer group for the PSUs is provided below in the “Use of Competitive Market Data” section.

##### Absolute TSR

The number of PSUs that would otherwise vest is further adjusted by our absolute annualized TSR over the performance period (Absolute TSR), which reduces or increases the vesting level of the PSUs depending on the Absolute TSR level.

The more rigorous Absolute TSR levels used for the LTIP Awards were chosen by the Compensation Committee as they furthered the heightened pay-for-performance philosophy of the Permian Resources compensation program, with more upside for more significant absolute returns and more downside for low or negative absolute returns.

LTIP AWARDS
Relative TSR(1) |  | Absolute TSR(1)
Relative Ranking TSR % |  | Relative Multiplier |  | Absolute Annualized TSR % |  | Absolute Multiplier
≥ 85% |  | 200% |  | > 20% |  | 150%
50% |  | 100% |  | 15% |  | 125%
15% |  | 15% |  | 10% |  | 100%
< 15% |  | 0% |  | 5% |  | 75%
|  |  |  | ≤ 0% |  | 50%

(1) | Linear interpolation is used to determine applicable Multipliers between percentiles listed in tables.

##### Vesting of 2020 PSUs

The PSUs granted in July 2020 to the then-serving NEOs were initially structured as cash-settled awards due to the limited number of remaining shares under the LTIP. In August 2022, the Compensation Committee approved an amendment to the award agreements for the 2020 PSUs that enabled the 2020 PSUs to settle in company stock or cash at the discretion of the Compensation Committee. The updated settlement flexibility was important to the Company to preserve flexibility and improve cash flow and was included in an amended award agreement, which Messrs. Garrison, Glyphis and Jensen signed in August 2022. As an inducement for Mr. Garrison to sign the amended award agreement, the Compensation Committee agreed to settle in cash one-third of his 2020 PSUs, with the remaining two-thirds remaining outstanding and subject to the normal vesting schedule for the 2020 PSUs.

The remaining 2020 PSUs held by Messrs. Garrison and Jensen were eligible to vest at the conclusion of the three-year performance period, which ended on June 30, 2023, subject to the achievement of the 2020 PSUs’ Relative TSR performance goals during the performance period and the NEO’s continuous employment through the end of the performance period. The 2020 PSUs were not subject to an Absolute TSR performance measure. Based on the Company’s TSR performance for the performance period compared to the applicable peer group, the payout percentage was 200% of the target PSUs per the terms of the PSU award agreement. Vested PSUs were settled in the form of company stock, as detailed in the table that follows.

PERMIAN RESOURCES | 2024 PROXY STATEMENT | 39

Back to Contents |

EXECUTIVE |  | TARGET NUMBER OF 2020 PSUS HELD (#) |  | PERCENT OF TARGET 2020 PSUS EARNED |  | VESTED 2020 PSUS
Brent P. Jensen |  | 453,030 |  | 200% |  | 906,060
Matthew R. Garrison |  | 384,800 |  | 200% |  | 769,600

In connection with his qualifying termination pursuant to the Centennial Severance Plan, the 2020 PSUs held by Mr. Glyphis were accelerated and vested following his termination date based on the Company’s performance through his May 4, 2023 termination date. Based on that slightly shortened performance period, the 2020 PSUs held by Mr. Glyphis had a payout percentage of 200% and, as a result, he received 2,562,310 vested 2020 PSUs, which was the most significant component of the equity severance benefits he received.

##### Retirement Plans and Other Employee Benefits

Our NEOs are eligible to participate in our employee benefit plans and programs, including medical and dental benefits and life and disability insurance, to the same extent as our other full-time employees, subject to the terms and eligibility requirements of those plans. Our NEOs may participate in a 401(k) defined contribution plan, subject to limits imposed by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), to the same extent as our other full-time employees. Our 401(k) Plan provides for matching contributions equal to 100% of the first 8% of each employee’s eligible compensation contributed to the plan. Employees are immediately 100% vested in the matching contributions. We do not typically provide any perquisites or special personal benefits to our NEOs.

#### DETERMINATION OF COMPENSATION

Our executive compensation program has been designed to attract, motivate, reward and retain high caliber management with the skills and competencies we believe are essential to our success and to align executive compensation with our short-term and long-term business objectives, business strategy and financial and operational performance. We link pay and performance to foster a culture of individual accountability and, in evaluating executive officer performance, place particular emphasis on the Company’s and individual’s performance against the pre-assigned goals, which is described in greater detail above in the section entitled “Annual Incentive Program.”

##### Role of the Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee administers and determines the parameters of our executive compensation program, including appropriate target levels and performance measures and the allocation between short-term and long-term compensation and between cash and equity-based awards, in order to establish an overall compensation program it believes is appropriate for each NEO. References in this section to the “Compensation Committee” refer to (1) the Compensation Committee as constituted before the PR Merger, with respect to determinations, decisions, conclusions and other actions taken by the Compensation Committee before the PR Merger, and (2) the Compensation Committee as constituted after the PR Merger, with respect to determinations, decisions, conclusions and other actions taken by the Compensation Committee after the PR Merger.

The Compensation Committee has principal authority for determining and approving the compensation awards for our executives and is charged with reviewing our executive compensation policies and practices to ensure adherence to our compensation philosophies and objectives. In making decisions, the Compensation Committee takes into account, among other factors:

| • | achievement of Company and individual performance goals and expectations relating to the NEO’s position at the Company;
| • | alignment of NEO compensation with short-term and long-term Company performance;
| • | competitiveness with compensation peer group companies, internal pay equity among individuals with similar expertise levels and experience and the unique skill sets of the individual;
| • | market demand for individuals with the NEO’s specific expertise and experience;
| • | advice, data and analysis provided by the Compensation Committee’s independent compensation consultant;
| • | general industry compensation data;
| • | the NEO’s background, experience and circumstances, including prior related work experience and training; and
| • | the recommendations of our Co-CEOs.

##### Role of Compensation Consultant in Determining Executive Compensation

In determining 2023 executive compensation, the Compensation Committee received information and reports from Meridian Compensation Partners, LLC (Meridian), an independent compensation consultant initially retained by the Compensation Committee in 2020 after a fulsome review of several potential consultant candidates.

Meridian provided data, analysis and advice to the Compensation Committee, including market information that the Compensation Committee used when determining whether our executive compensation is competitive, commensurate with each executive’s responsibilities and consistent with market trends in executive compensation practices for companies in our industry. Meridian does not provide services to PR, the Compensation Committee or management other than consulting services related to the duties and responsibilities of the Compensation Committee with respect to the compensation and benefits of our directors, officers and employees. The Compensation Committee has considered the adviser independence factors required under SEC rules as they relate to Meridian and does not believe Meridian’s work in 2023 raised a conflict of interest.

##### Use of Competitive Market Data

A key objective of our executive compensation program is to ensure that the total compensation opportunities available to our executives are competitive with those of oil and gas exploration and production companies with whom we compete for executive talent, investment dollars and business opportunities. To assist us in evaluating our executive compensation program against this key objective, we maintain a peer group that we refer to as our “Compensation Peer Group.” We also use a similar group of peer companies, in addition to the SPDR S&P Oil & Gas Exploration and Production ETF (XOP) to determine our TSR relative to our peers for purpose of determining the payout level for the PSUs, and we refer to this separate peer group as our “Performance Peer Group.”

##### Compensation Peer Group

The Compensation Committee, with input and advice from Meridian, typically reviews the Compensation Peer Group on an annual basis to ensure it remains appropriate year-over-year. The Compensation Peer Group is selected based on multiple factors, including assets, market capitalization, enterprise value, location, revenue, geographic footprint and complexity of operations.

In late 2023, the Compensation Committee re-assessed and updated the Compensation Peer Group, which had last been adjusted in September 2022 at the closing of the PR Merger. The Compensation Committee determined that substantial changes to the Compensation Peer Group were needed given the Company’s substantial growth relative to the existing Compensation Peer Group, particularly when considering the Company on a pro forma basis for the Earthstone Acquisition. The legacy and updated Compensation Peer Groups are set forth in the table below.

##### Performance Peer Group

The Performance Peer Group is typically reviewed by the Compensation Committee, with input and advice from Meridian, prior to the Committee awarding PSUs as the Performance Peer Group is used for Relative TSR measures under our PSUs. In connection with awarding the inaugural PSUs described above, the Compensation Committee approved the Performance Peer Group set forth in the table below, which remained the Company’s Performance Peer Group throughout 2023. In early 2024, in connection with awarding PSUs under the Company’s 2024 executive compensation program, the Compensation Committee re-assessed the Performance Peer Group and determined that substantial changes were needed given the Company’s substantial growth relative to the existing Performance Peer Group, particularly when considering the scale of the Company following the Earthstone Acquisition. The legacy and updated Performance Peer Groups are set forth in the table below.

##### Role of Executive Officers in Determining Executive Compensation

Our Co-CEOs provide the Compensation Committee with a review of the performance of our executives, other than themselves, and make recommendations to the Compensation Committee to assist it in determining executive compensation levels, other than their own. As our Co-CEOs do not receive base salaries and do not participate in our Annual Incentive Program, we believe our Co-CEOs are uniquely able to make impartial recommendations to the Compensation Committee on those compensation elements.

Our Co-CEOs reviewed compensation assessments and data provided by Meridian prior to and in connection with the recommendations they made to the Compensation Committee relating to the 2023 executive compensation program. While the Compensation Committee utilized this information and valued management’s observations with regard to compensation, the ultimate decisions regarding 2023 executive compensation were made by the Committee.

#### OTHER COMPENSATION PRACTICES AND POLICIES

##### Employment, Severance or Change in Control Agreements

We have not entered into any employment agreements with our NEOs. However, we consider a strong workforce to be essential to our success. To that end, we recognize that the uncertainty which may exist among employees with respect to their “at-will” employment with us could result in the departure or distraction of personnel to our detriment. Accordingly, to encourage the continued attention and dedication of our employees, and to allow our management team to focus on the value to shareholders of strategic alternatives without concern for the impact on their continued employment, we maintain a Severance Plan under which all of our regular, full-time employees are eligible to receive certain severance payments and benefits upon a qualifying termination of employment. In November 2022, to remain competitive with similar programs at peer companies, and based on advice from Meridian, we updated the plan to provide for severance benefits for certain qualifying terminations unrelated to change in control transactions, including terminations arising from a NEO’s death or disability. For a more detailed description of the Severance Plan, see the “Severance Plan” section below.

##### Company Guidelines Regarding Stock Ownership

We maintain robust Stock Ownership Guidelines for our officers, as well as for our non-employee directors, which are intended to demonstrate to our shareholders, the investing public and other employees that the officers and non-employee directors are invested in and committed to our Company, and to further align their interests with the interests of our shareholders. Under the guidelines, each officer must own Company stock equal to a multiple of his or her base salary, and each non-employee director must own Company stock equal to a multiple of his or her annual cash retainer. Under our guidelines, shares of unvested stock awards do not count toward the required ownership threshold, which is a distinction that we believe differentiates our guidelines from those of our peers. The Compensation Committee modified the Stock Ownership Guidelines in 2023 to expand the scope to all PR officers (it previously only covered our NEOs) and to exclude the value of unvested awards from the ownership calculation as the Compensation Committee wanted to reinforce the importance of PR management holding PR shares once the equity awards vested.

We believe our ownership requirements exceed the prevailing required ownership levels among our peers, particularly considering our ownership calculation excludes the value of unvested awards, and demonstrate our heightened focus on aligning the interests of our NEOs and directors with the interests of our shareholders.

POSITION | MULTIPLE OF BASE SALARY / ANNUAL CASH RETAINER
Co-Chief Executive Officers | 8X
Non-Employee Directors | 7X
Executive Vice President | 3X
Senior Vice President | 2X
Vice President | 1X

Because neither of our Co-CEOs have a base salary, the Stock Ownership Guidelines provide that their ownership requirements shall assume they each have a $750,000 base salary for purposes of calculating their ownership thresholds.

Our officers and non-employee directors generally have a transition period of five years from the date she or he became an officer or non-employee director to come into full compliance with the guidelines. An officer or non-employee director who is not in compliance with the guidelines on the applicable compliance date is prohibited from selling or transferring any Company stock, except as needed to pay income tax liabilities relating to the vesting or exercise price of a stock option, and may be subject to such other discipline as determined by the Compensation Committee. There is an exception to the holding requirement for severe hardship or compliance with court or domestic relations orders, subject to approval by the Compensation Committee.

As of December 31, 2023, all of our officers and non-employee directors were in compliance with the Stock Ownership Guidelines, either through meeting the ownership requirement or by being within the transition period.

##### Company Anti-Hedging Policy

Our Insider Trading and Regulation FD Policy prohibits all of our directors, officers and other employees, as well as those acting on behalf of the Company, such as auditors, agents and consultants, from engaging in certain speculative transactions in our securities, including short-term trading, short sales, transactions in puts, calls or other derivatives, margin accounts, pledging for collateral purposes and hedging. To our knowledge, all such covered individuals are in compliance with this policy.

PERMIAN RESOURCES | 2024 PROXY STATEMENT | 43

##### Clawback Policy

In October 2023, we adopted an updated clawback policy, as required by Section 10D of the Exchange Act and the listing standards adopted by the NYSE. In the event of certain accounting restatements, this policy requires us to pursue recovery from current and former executive officers (as defined under the applicable rules) of any amount of incentive-based awards paid during the three years preceding the accounting restatement that exceeds the amount that would have otherwise been paid if calculated based on the restated financial reporting measure, calculated on a pre-tax basis.

##### Tax Implications of NEO Compensation

Section 162(m) of the Code imposes an annual deduction limit of $1 million on the amount of compensation paid by a public company to “covered employees.” Prior to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (TCJA), the deduction limit did not apply to “performance-based compensation” that satisfied the requirements of Section 162(m). Performance stock unit awards and stock options issued under our 2016 Long-Term Incentive Plan prior to November 2, 2017 were generally intended to satisfy the requirements of the Section 162(m) performance-based compensation exemption. The TCJA eliminated the performance-based compensation exemption, although compensation paid pursuant to a written binding contract which was in effect on November 2, 2017, may be “grandfathered” and still qualify for the performance-based compensation exception under certain circumstances.

U.S. Department of Treasury regulations passed in 2019 require a corporate partner to include its distributive share of compensation paid by a partnership to covered employees of the corporate partner for purposes of applying the Section 162(m) deduction limit for tax years ending after December 20, 2019. Accordingly, for compensation to covered employees subsequent to the PR Merger, we include our distributive share of compensation paid by our subsidiary, Permian Resources Operating, LLC, which is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, when determining the effect of 162(m) on the deductibility of compensation paid to our covered employees for 2023 and future tax years.

While the Compensation Committee considers the impact of Section 162(m) and other tax rules when developing, structuring and implementing our executive compensation programs, the Compensation Committee also believes that it is important to preserve flexibility in administering compensation programs in a manner designed to promote varying corporate goals. Accordingly, some of our compensation awards are nondeductible.

In addition, Section 409A of the Code requires that “nonqualified deferred compensation” be deferred and paid under plans or arrangements that satisfy the requirements of the statute with respect to the timing of deferral elections, timing of payments, and certain other matters. Failure to satisfy these requirements can expose employees and other service providers to accelerated income tax liabilities and penalty taxes and interest on their vested compensation under such plans. Accordingly, as a general matter, it is the Company’s intention to design and administer its compensation and benefits plans and arrangements for all employees and other service providers, including the executive officers, so that they are either exempt from, or satisfy the requirements of, Section 409A of the Code.

(1) | Amount for 2023 reflects the aggregate grant date fair value of restricted stock and performance stock units (PSUs) granted to Mr. Oliphint, computed in accordance with FASB’s ASC Topic 718, Stock-based Compensation (ASC Topic 718), excluding the effect of estimated forfeitures. Fair value of the PSUs was determined using Monte Carlo simulations. The assumptions used by the Company in calculating this amount for 2023 are included in Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (Form 10-K). If the maximum level of achievement of the performance conditions associated with PSUs granted to Mr. Oliphint in 2023 is achieved, the value associated with the PSUs based on the closing price per share of our common stock on the date they were granted ($8.71), would be $6,195,345. Other than Mr. Oliphint, the NEOs did not receive stock awards in 2023. For additional information regarding the stock-based awards granted to Mr. Oliphint in 2023, refer to the 2023 Grants of Plan-Based Awards table.
(2) | Amounts for 2023 include the incremental fair value associated with modifying certain PSUs held by Messrs. Glyphis and Garrison in connection with their departures to allow a pro rata portion of the PSUs to remain outstanding and be eligible to vest in the future based on Company performance through the end of the performance period set forth in the original award agreements for the PSUs. Without the modifications, these PSUs would have been forfeited by Messrs. Glyphis and Garrison in connection with their departures. The incremental fair values were calculated pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 718 as of the modification date and included in this Summary Compensation Table in accordance with SEC rules. For additional information on the modification of these awards, please refer to the Potential Payments Upon Termination or a Change in Control Table.
(3) | Amounts for 2023 represent the Annual Incentive Program (AIP) compensation awarded in recognition of 2023 performance, which was paid to the applicable NEOs in March 2024. As Messrs. Glyphis and Garrison were not employed when the AIP cash awards were paid in March 2024, they were not eligible to receive awards under the AIP.
(4) | Amounts for 2023 reflect cash severance payments received by Messrs. Glyphis and Garrison in connection with their departure from the Company in 2023, matching contributions to the 401(k) Plan made by the Company on the NEO’s behalf, relocation benefits for Mr. Oliphint and the amount of imputed income associated with one instance of personal use of a Company-chartered aircraft. The amount of 401(k) contributions were $15,000 for Mr. Oliphint, $22,500 for Mr. Bell, $26,400 for Mr. Jensen, $13,299 for Mr. Glyphis and $22,500 for Mr. Garrison. The amount for Mr. Oliphint includes $131,996 in relocation benefits provided to him in connection with his relocation from Houston to Midland. The amounts for Mr. Glyphis and Mr. Garrison include an aggregate of $3,230,768 and $336,947 in cash severance payments, respectively, which were paid upon their respective departures from the organization.

(1) | Amounts reflect target and maximum cash awards payable under our Annual Incentive Program. Messrs. Hickey and Walter do not participate in the Annual Incentive Program. Although AIP grants are reflected for Messrs. Glyphis and Garrison, they forfeited these amounts upon their departure from the Company in 2023.
(2) | Amounts reflect number of shares that would be delivered to Mr. Oliphint if the PSUs were earned at the threshold, target and maximum levels of performance. If and to the extent earned, the PSUs will vest at the end of the applicable performance period, subject to Mr. Oliphint’s continuous employment through the last day of such period.
(3) | These restricted stock awards will vest in three substantially equal annual installments following the date of grant, subject to Mr. Oliphint’s continued service with us through the applicable vesting date.
(4) | All awards were made pursuant to the LTIP. Amounts in this column reflect the aggregate grant date fair value of awards granted during 2023 computed in accordance with ASC Topic 718, excluding the effect of estimated forfeitures. The assumptions used by the Company in calculating these amounts are included in Note 7 to the Form 10-K.
(5) | Amounts include the incremental fair value associated with modifying certain PSUs held by Messrs. Glyphis and Garrison in connection with their departures to allow a pro rata portion of the PSUs to remain outstanding and be eligible to vest in the future based on Company performance through the end of the performance period set forth in the original award agreements for the PSUs. Without the modifications, these PSUs would have been forfeited by Messrs. Glyphis and Garrison in connection with their departures. The incremental fair values were calculated and included in this 2023 Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table in accordance with SEC rules.

(2) | Represents PSUs, which vest based on the Company’s TSR as compared to the TSR of the performance peer group over a multi-year performance period and the Company’s absolute annualized TSR over the performance period. The number of PSUs reported is based on the number of PSUs granted to each NEO multiplied by the performance multiplier for the maximum level of performance. The awards are reported at maximum because as of December 31, 2023, performance under these awards was trending above the target level of performance. The market or payout value for these PSUs is calculated using the $13.60 per share closing price of our common stock on December 29, 2023.
(3) | All the unvested restricted stock awards held by Messrs. Glyphis and Garrison vested upon the date their respective terminations became effective, as reflected in the Option Exercises and Stock Vested in 2023 table below. The outstanding PSUs reported herein for Messrs. Glyphis and Garrison remain outstanding for the original performance periods underlying the awards.

The following table provides information regarding the vesting of restricted stock and PSU awards held by our NEOs during 2023. The value realized from the vesting of the restricted stock and PSU awards is equal to the closing price of our common stock on the applicable vesting date, multiplied by the number of shares of stock acquired. The value is calculated before payment of any applicable withholding or other income taxes.

#### SEVERANCE PLAN

Severance protection is provided to all of our regular, U.S. full-time employees, including each of our NEOs, under our Severance Plan, which was last updated by our Board in November 2022.

##### Severance Benefits Related to a Change in Control

The Severance Plan has a “double trigger” mechanism for change in control severance, which requires first that a change in control event has occurred, and second that, within a specified period thereafter, the employee has incurred a qualifying termination.

Under the Severance Plan, if, within 24 months following a change in control, we terminate the employment of one of our NEOs without “cause” or if the NEO resigns for “good reason,” (as such terms are defined in the Severance Plan) then such NEO will be entitled to receive:

| • | Severance Payment: Cash payment equal to 3.0 times (for our Co-CEOs) or 2.75 times (for our other NEOs) the sum of the NEO’s base salary and average AIP award for the preceding three years;
| • | Prorated Bonus: Prorated AIP award (paid at target) for the year of termination;
| • | Accelerated Vesting of All Awards: Accelerated vesting of the NEO’s unvested time-based equity awards and performance-based awards (based on the actual achievement of the applicable performance conditions through the termination date);
| • | Health Benefits: Cash payment equal to 125% of the aggregate COBRA premiums that the NEO would need to pay to continue coverage of the benefit plans for the NEO and the NEO’s family for two years following the termination date; and
| • | Outplacement Benefits: Outplacement benefits for one year following the termination date.

Because neither of our Co-CEOs have a base salary or target bonus, the Severance Plan provides that any cash severance payable to either of them upon a qualifying termination following a change in control would be calculated using a $750,000 base salary and a 100% target bonus.

##### Severance Benefits Unrelated to a Change in Control

Under the Severance Plan, if unrelated to a change in control, we terminate the employment of one of our NEOs without “cause” (and not by reason of death or disability) or if the NEO resigns for “good reason” (as such terms are defined in the Severance Plan), then such NEO will be entitled to receive:

| • | Health Benefits (same as described above);
| • | Outplacement Benefits (same as described above);
| • | Prorated Accelerated Vesting of Time-Based Awards: Accelerated vesting of a pro rata portion of the NEO’s unvested outstanding time-based equity awards; and
| • | Prorated Vesting of Performance-Based Awards: Vesting of a pro rata portion of the NEO’s unvested outstanding performance-based equity awards at the end of the applicable performance period based on the actual achievement of the applicable performance conditions through the end of the performance period.

##### Severance Benefits Related to Death or Disability

Under the Severance Plan, if one of our NEOs experiences a termination due to the NEO’s death or disability, then such NEO will be entitled to receive, as applicable:

| • | Health Benefits (same as described above);
| • | Outplacement Benefits (same as described above);
| • | Accelerated Vesting of Time-Based Awards: Accelerated vesting of the NEO’s unvested time-based equity awards; and
| • | Vesting of Performance-Based Awards: Vesting of the NEO’s unvested outstanding performance-based equity awards at the end of the applicable performance period based on the actual achievement of the applicable performance conditions through the end of the performance period.

#### POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OR A CHANGE IN CONTROL

The following table provides estimates of the payments and benefits that would be paid to each NEO under the Severance Plan in connection with certain termination events assuming that such NEO’s employment was terminated on December 31, 2023.

In all cases, the amounts were valued as of December 31, 2023, based upon, where applicable, $13.60 per share (the closing price of our common stock on December 29, 2023, the last trading day of the year).

Mr. Glyphis is not included in the “Potential Payments Upon Termination or a Change in Control Table” above because he was not employed with the Company as of December 31, 2023. His employment terminated on May 4, 2023, which was a “Qualifying Termination” under the Centennial Severance Plan. Upon his departure, in accordance with the Centennial Severance Plan and his separation agreement, Mr. Glyphis received:

| • | a cash severance payment equal to 2.75 times the sum of his base salary and average AIP award for the preceding three years;
| • | a prorated AIP award (paid at target) for 2023;
| • | the health and outplacement benefits set forth in the Centennial Severance Plan, described in more detail above;
| • | an accelerated vesting of the stock awards he was granted prior to the closing date of the PR Merger; and
| • | in recognition for his service between the closing date of the PR Merger and his departure date, a pro rata acceleration of the restricted stock awarded to him on the closing date of the PR Merger.

Mr. Glyphis’ separation agreement also provided for the retention of 55,583 PSUs that had been awarded to him on the closing date of the PR Merger, which was a pro rata portion of the initial grant of 250,123 PSUs, and these retained PSUs remain outstanding and will be eligible to vest based on Company performance through the end of the performance period, which concludes on December 31, 2025.

The table below summarizes the payments and benefits provided to Mr. Glyphis upon his termination of employment in 2023.

CATEGORY OF PAYMENT |  | AMOUNT OF PAYMENT

Health & Outplacement Benefits |  | $ | 76,145
Accelerated Equity |  | $ | 39,111,087
Total |  | $ | 42,359,855

Similarly, Mr. Garrison is not included in the “Potential Payments Upon Termination or a Change in Control” table above because he was not employed with the Company as of December 31, 2023. His employment terminated on September 1, 2023 when Mr. Garrison resigned for personal reasons. Pursuant to his separation agreement, and in recognition of his service between the closing date of the PR Merger and September 1, 2023, as well as certain post-employment non-competition, non-solicitation and other customary restrictive covenants, the Compensation Committee approved the following cash and equity severance benefits for Mr. Garrison:

| • | a prorated AIP award (paid at target) for 2023;
| • | a cash payment to compensate Mr. Garrison for the COBRA premiums that he would need to pay to continue coverage of his health benefits for two years following his termination date; and
| • | an accelerated vesting of his restricted stock awards.

Mr. Garrison’s separation agreement also provided for the retention of 202,605 PSUs, which represented a pro-rated portion of Mr. Garrison’s then-outstanding PSUs, which will remain outstanding and be eligible to vest in the future based on Company performance through the end of the performance period set forth in the original award agreements for the PSUs.

#### CEO PAY RATIO

As required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, we are providing the following information regarding the ratio of the annual total compensation of each of our Co-CEOs to the total annual compensation of our median employee.

The SEC’s rules for identifying the median employee and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee’s annual total compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their employee populations and compensation practices. As a result, the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported below, as other companies have different employee populations and compensation practices and may utilize different methodologies, exclusions, estimates and assumptions in calculating their own pay ratios.

We identified the median employee from our entire employee population (other than our Co-CEOs), whether employed on a full-time or part-time basis, as of December 31, 2023, which consisted of 459 employees. Within this group of employees, the median employee was identified by using a total target cash compensation measure, which was calculated by annualizing on a straight-line basis the salary of each employee as of December 31, 2023 and adding each employee’s target bonus and the amount of employer-paid benefits received by each employee in 2023. The compensation measure was consistently applied to all employees.

Once we identified the median employee, we then calculated that employee’s annual total compensation in the same manner as we used to calculate total compensation of our Co-CEOs, as reported in the Summary Compensation Table.

For 2023, the annual total compensation of our median employee was $168,006, and the annual total compensation of Mr. Walter, one of our Co-CEOs, was $4,297. Therefore, in 2023, the ratio of Mr. Walter’s annual total compensation to the annual total compensation of our median employee was approximately 0.026 to 1. In other words, our median employee’s total compensation was approximately 39 times higher than the total compensation of Mr. Walter. As Mr. Hickey, our other Co-CEO, had $0 total compensation in 2023, it is not possible to calculate a ratio between his compensation and the total compensation of our median employee.

#### PAY VERSUS PERFORMANCE

The following table shows the total compensation for our NEOs for the past four years, as set forth in the Summary Compensation Table, and the “compensation actually paid” (computed in the manner required by SEC rules as described below) to our NEOs. The table separately presents the amounts for each Chief Executive Officer serving during the last four years, including each of our current Co-CEOs, and the combined average amounts for our other NEOs. The table also provides our Total Shareholder Returns (TSR), the TSR of the selected peer group, our net income and our Adjusted Free Cash Flow, all presented for the past four years.

##### Relationship Between Compensation Actually Paid and Performance Measures

The following graphs illustrate the relationship between the pay and performance figures that are included in the pay tables above. As noted above, “compensation actually paid” for purposes of the tabular disclosure and the following graphs were calculated in accordance with SEC rules and do not represent the actual amount of compensation earned by or paid to our NEOs during the applicable years.

The graphs separately presents the Compensation Actually Paid (CAP) for each Chief Executive Officer serving during the last four years, with the amount appearing for Messrs. Hickey and Walter representing the approximate amount applicable to each of them individually.

##### Performance Measures

The table below sets forth our most important performance measures used to link “Compensation Actually Paid” for our NEOs to company performance, over the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. Please see the Compensation Discussion & Analysis section above for further information regarding these performance measures and their function in our executive compensation program.

#### COMPENSATION RISK ASSESSMENT

Management has conducted a risk assessment of our compensation plans and practices and concluded that our compensation programs do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. The objective of the assessment was to identify any compensation plans or practices that may encourage employees to take unnecessary risks that could threaten the Company. No such plans or practices were identified by management. The Compensation Committee has also reviewed the risks and rewards associated with our compensation plans and practices and agrees with management’s conclusion.

#### DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

Directors who are not also our employees or affiliated with Riverstone Investment Group LLC, Pearl Energy Investments, L.P. or Post Oak Energy Capital, LP receive compensation under our director compensation program, which is reviewed by the Compensation Committee and is approved by the Board.

We have historically provided a combination of cash and stock-based incentive compensation to attract and retain qualified candidates to serve on our Board, but our Board determined, following input and advice from Meridian, to allow directors to take 100% of their compensation in the form of stock-based compensation. All of our directors except for one has elected to take 100% of their compensation in the form of stock-based compensation.

The following table identifies the annual equity award each non-employee director receives and the retainer amount, which can be paid quarterly in arrears in cash or through an upsized equity award at the outset of the director’s service year. The leadership positions on the Board also receive larger equity awards, as detailed below.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS

#### REVIEW AND APPROVAL OF RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS

Our Board has adopted a Related Person Transaction Policy, a copy of which is available on our website at www.permianres.com. Under the policy, our Audit Committee reviews and, where the Audit Committee determines them to be in our best interests, approves all transactions and arrangements that have an aggregate value exceeding $120,000, in which the Company participates and a Related Person to the Company has a direct or indirect material interest. For purpose of the policy, a “Related Person” includes our directors, director nominees, executive officers and any holder of more than 5% of any class of our common stock, and their respective immediate family members.

In determining whether a related person transaction or arrangement is in our best interests, the Audit Committee considers, among other factors, the position within or relationship of the Related Person with us, the materiality of the transaction or arrangement, the business purpose for and reasonableness of the transaction or arrangement, whether the transaction or arrangement is comparable to one that could be available on an arms-length basis to us or is on terms we offer generally to persons who are not related, whether the transaction is in the ordinary course of our business and was proposed and considered in the ordinary course, and the effect of the transaction or arrangement on our business and operations. The policy provides that the following do not create a material direct or indirect interest on behalf of the Related Person and are therefore not related person transactions:

| • | reimbursements or payments of business expenses;
| • | executive officer or director compensation in accordance with the disclosure exceptions provided for in Instruction 5 to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K (or any successor rule);
| • | any charitable contribution, grant, endowment or pledge by us to a charitable organization, foundation or university where the Related Person’s only relationship with that organization is as a director and the aggregate amount involved does not exceed $200,000;
| • | any transaction in which the interest of the Related Person arises solely from the ownership of a class of the Company’s equity securities and all holders of that class receive the same benefit on a pro rata basis (for example, dividends); and
| • | any transaction with an entity at which the Related Person’s only relationship is as a director.

Annually, the Audit Committee reviews any previously approved related person transaction or arrangement that is continuing and determines based on then existing facts and circumstances whether it is in our best interest to continue, modify or terminate each such transaction or arrangement.

The Related Person Transactions Policy supplements the conflict of interest provisions in our Code of Ethics.

Our Code of Ethics requires us to avoid, wherever possible, all conflicts of interests, except under guidelines or resolutions approved by our Board (or the appropriate committee of our Board) or as disclosed in our public filings with the SEC. Under our Code of Ethics, conflict of interest situations include, among others, any financial transaction, arrangement or relationship (including any indebtedness or guarantee of indebtedness) involving the Company, and any circumstance, event, relationship or situation in which the personal interest of any of our directors, officers or employees interferes or appears to interfere with our interests as a whole. A copy of our Code of Ethics is available on our website at www.permianres.com. We intend to satisfy the disclosure requirement regarding any amendment to, or any waiver of, a provision of the Code of Ethics by posting such information on our website.

Although our management believes that the terms of the related person transactions described below are reasonable, it is possible that we could have negotiated more favorable terms for such transactions with unrelated third parties.

#### RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS

Funds affiliated with NGP Energy Capital Management, L.L.C. (NGP), Pearl Energy Investments, L.P. (Pearl), Riverstone Investment Group LLC (Riverstone) and EnCap Investments L.P. (EnCap) each beneficially own more than 5% of the outstanding shares of any class of common stock of the Company. For the current ownership of each Related Person and its related affiliates in the Company, please see the “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management” section below. Pearl also has one director representative currently serving on the Company’s Board of Directors.

NGP and Pearl also own interests in CEP III Holdings, LLC and its affiliates (CEP Holdings), a holding company that owned Colgate prior to the PR Merger. Members of our management team that were previously employed by Colgate also owned profit interests in CEP Holdings until December 2022.

Because of their significant ownership in the Company, any otherwise qualifying transactions between the Company and investments affiliated with any of these Related Persons is considered a related person transaction under the Company’s Related Person Transaction Policy. The following list reflects the Company’s related person transactions for 2023. We believe that the terms of these arrangements are no less favorable to either party than those held with unaffiliated parties.

| • | As previously disclosed on Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 21, 2023, September 21, 2023 and December 20, 2023, over the course of 2023 and in each case concurrent with the closing of periodic secondary offerings by certain shareholders of the Company, the Company agreed to purchase common units representing limited liability company interests in Permian Resources Operating, LLC together with a corresponding number of shares of Class C common stock of the Company with an aggregate value of approximately $86.5 million from certain affiliates of NGP at prices per common unit (and corresponding share of Class C common stock) equal to the price per share at which the underwriters to the respective secondary offering agreed to purchase shares of Class A common stock of the Company in the applicable periodic secondary offering.
| • | Certain mineral owners affiliated with NGP, EnCap and one of our directors, Karan E. Eves, received payments from us in 2023 relating to their ownership of oil and gas minerals that we operate. Funds affiliated with NGP include Springbok Energy Partners LLC, Luxe Royalties, Luxe Energy LLC, Tap Rock Resources II LLC and Elk Range Royalties LP, which received approximately $1.1 million, $1.0 million, $0.6 million, $0.5 million and $3.9 million, respectively, in net revenue payments in 2023.

| • | During 2023, we received approximately $0.4 million in net revenue payments from Hibernia Energy III, LLC, an NGP affiliate, relating to jointly owned interests in oil and gas minerals.
| • | We continue to have a vendor arrangement with Streamline Innovations, Inc. (Streamline), a Riverstone affiliate, which is also affiliated with Pearl. During 2023, we paid approximately $5.3 million to Streamline for field equipment and related services.
| • | During the fourth quarter of 2023, Maple Energy Holdings, LLC, a Riverstone affiliate, received approximately $0.9 million from us relating to its ownership of oil and gas minerals that we operate.
| • | We have a vendor arrangement with Wildcat Oil Tools LLC (Wildcat), an oilfield tool company founded by one of our directors, Aron Marquez. Mr. Marquez was the Chief Executive Officer of Wildcat from 2012 until January 2023, when he became the Executive Chairman of the Wildcat Board of Directors. Wildcat was an established vendor for each of Centennial and Colgate prior to Mr. Marquez being appointed to the Board in connection with the PR Merger closing. In 2023, we paid approximately $1.8 million to Wildcat.

### PROPOSAL 3:

Election of Three Class II Directors, if Proposal 1 is Not Approved

The Company’s shareholders will be asked to vote on this Proposal 3 only in the event that at the Annual Meeting, the Company’s shareholders do not approve the Declassification Amendment described in Proposal 1. If the Company’s shareholders approve the Declassification Amendment, then the Company will amend its Charter to eliminate its classified Board, as described in Proposal 1 above, and the shareholders will proceed to vote on Proposal 2 and not this Proposal 3. If, however, the Company’s shareholders do not approve the Declassification Amendment, a vote will be taken on this Proposal 3.

If the shareholders do not approve the Declassification Amendment described in Proposal 1, Karan E. Eves, William J. Quinn and Jeffrey H. Tepper are nominated for election to serve a three-year term each as a Class II director subject to re-election at the 2027 annual meeting.

If prior to the Annual Meeting a nominee becomes unavailable to serve as a director, any shares represented by a proxy directing a vote will be voted for the remaining nominees and for any substitute nominee(s) designated by the Board. As of the mailing of these proxy materials, the Board has no reason to believe any director nominee would not be available to serve.

#### VOTE REQUIRED AND BOARD RECOMMENDATION

The election of each of our three Class II director nominees requires the vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting, which means the number of votes cast “FOR” such nominee exceeds the number of votes cast “AGAINST” such nominee. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be counted as votes cast and, therefore, will not have an effect on the outcome of the election of directors.

| OUR BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE ELECTION OF EACH OF THE CLASS II DIRECTOR NOMINEES NAMED ABOVE.

### PROPOSAL 4:

Approval of Amendment to the Company’s Charter to Reflect the Latest Delaware Law Provisions Regarding Officer Exculpation

We are asking our shareholders to vote to approve a proposal to amend (the Exculpation Amendment, and together with the Declassification Amendment, the Charter Amendments) the Company’s Charter to implement the latest Delaware law provisions that allow exculpation of certain executive officers similar to the exculpation provisions that already exist for directors.

In August 2022, Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (DGCL) was amended to permit Delaware corporations to amend their certificates of incorporation to limit or eliminate the personal liability of specified officers for monetary damages associated with certain breaches of the fiduciary duty of care in limited circumstances. Historically, only directors could be so exculpated.

Currently, Section 8.1 of the Charter provides exculpation from monetary damages for certain breaches of fiduciary duty, such as the duty of care, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, but solely for directors. Under Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL, the protections that now may be extended to officers are not, however, identical to the existing director protections. If the Company’s Exculpation Amendment is adopted, the Charter will allow for the exculpation of certain officers only in connection with direct claims brought by shareholders, including class actions, but would not eliminate officers’ monetary liability for breach of fiduciary duty claims brought by the Company itself or for derivative claims brought by shareholders in the name of the Company. This structure means that the Board will retain its authority to assert the Company’s claims against any officer of the Company in the event of such officer’s breach of the duty of care (or, if the Board does not bring such a claim, a shareholder may do so derivatively). Additionally, as is currently the case with directors under our Charter, the Exculpation Amendment would not limit the liability of officers for: (i) any breach of the duty of loyalty to the Company or its shareholders, (ii) any acts or omissions in bad faith or which involve a knowing or intentional violation of the law, and (iii) any transaction from which the officer derived an improper personal benefit.

The description of the Exculpation Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the proposed revisions, which are set forth under Section 8.1 in the Amended and Restated Charter attached as Appendix B and incorporated into this Proxy Statement by reference. Additions are indicated by underlining, and deletions are indicated by strike-outs.

If Proposal 4 is approved by our shareholders, the Charter will be amended and restated to reflect the revisions contemplated by the Exculpation Amendment (as well as certain non-substantive administrative updates and the other revisions contemplated by Proposal 1 above, if Proposal 1 is also approved by our shareholders) and the Amended and Restated Charter will become effective upon its filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, which is anticipated to occur as soon as practicable following voting by the shareholders at the Annual Meeting. If the shareholders approve Proposal 4, but not Proposal 1, the Amended and Restated Charter will only reflect the revisions contemplated by the Exculpation Amendment.

If our shareholders do not approve this Proposal 4, the changes described in this section will not be made, and the Exculpation Amendment described in this section will not take effect. The approval of this Proposal 4 is not conditioned upon approval of any of the other proposals, including the Declassification Amendment proposal.

#### RATIONALE FOR APPROVAL

The adoption of the Exculpation Amendment will enable the Company to strike a balance between the shareholders’ interest in officer accountability, reducing litigation and liability insurance costs and enabling the Company to attract and retain quality officers.

The Board strongly believes that the Company’s officers should be held to the highest standards when carrying out their duties to the Company and our shareholders. However, in recent years, shareholder plaintiffs have persuaded courts to impose the same fiduciary duties on officers that directors have, thereby exploiting an absence of exculpatory protections for officers in order to prolong litigation and extract larger settlements from defendant corporations. Like directors, officers frequently make decisions in response to time-sensitive opportunities and challenges. In the current litigious environment and sometimes regardless of merit, this can create substantial risk of investigations, claims, actions, suits or proceedings seeking to impose liability on the basis of hindsight. The potential for officers to have personal liability for decisions made or actions taken on behalf of the Company, including for unintentional mistakes, could adversely impact the ability of our officers to make decisions that are most appropriate for the Company. Limiting concern about personal risk would empower officers to best exercise their business judgment in furtherance of shareholder interests. Furthermore, the potential for personal liability has resulted in increased litigation and costs incurred by the Company to procure liability insurance for claims against our officers, which harms shareholders. In 2023, many of the Company’s peers adopted exculpation amendments to their certificates of incorporation to limit the personal liability of their officers to the full extent permitted by the DGCL. The Company believes that more peers will adopt such exculpation amendments in 2024 and the near future. Since the Company competes with these peers for talent, failing to adopt the Exculpation Amendment contemplated by this Proposal 4 could impact the Company’s recruitment and retention of exceptional officer candidates.

In this context, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board carefully considered the advantages and disadvantages of amending the Charter to extend exculpation of personal liability for monetary damages for certain breaches of the duty of care to officers of the Company, as permitted and in compliance with the DGCL, as amended, in addition to the existing exculpation provisions for the benefit of directors. After carefully reviewing these considerations and taking into account the narrow class and type of claims that the officers would be exculpated from liability for, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee determined, and the Board agreed, that it is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders to extend such exculpation to officers of the Company, strictly within the parameters of the DGCL, as amended. The Board concluded that officer exculpation will more closely align the protections already available to directors with those now available to officers, creating a balance with respect to their functions in such capacities on behalf of the Company, will limit the potential for certain costly and distracting litigation against officers, regardless of merit, when such claims cannot be pursued against directors, and will facilitate recruitment and retention of the most qualified officers of the Company. Further, the proposed amendments will not affect any other traditional checks against officers, as claims may still be brought against them for breach of the fiduciary duty of loyalty or actions taken in bad faith, and the Board and shareholders bringing suits derivatively on behalf of the corporation may still bring fiduciary claims against officers.

Accordingly, the Board, upon the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, has unanimously determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to amend the Charter to extend exculpation for monetary damages for certain breaches of fiduciary duty, such as the duty of care, to the officers of the Company, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, in strict compliance Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL, as amended, and has unanimously approved, and recommended that the Company’s shareholders approve, such amendments to the Charter.

#### VOTE REQUIRED AND BOARD RECOMMENDATION

The approval of the Exculpation Amendment proposal requires the affirmative vote of shareholders holding at least a majority of the outstanding voting stock of the Company voting together as a single class. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as votes “AGAINST” this Proposal 4.

| OUR BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE EXCULPATION AMENDMENT PROPOSAL AS DISCUSSED ABOVE.

### PROPOSAL 5:

Approval on an Advisory Basis of our Named Executive Officer Compensation

In accordance with the Dodd-Frank Act of 2010 (the Dodd-Frank Act) and Section 14A of the Exchange Act, we are asking our shareholders to vote to approve, on an advisory (non-binding) basis, the compensation of our NEOs as disclosed in this Proxy Statement.

As described in detail under the heading “Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” our executive compensation programs are designed to attract, motivate and retain our NEOs, who are critical to our success. Please read “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” and the accompanying tables and narrative disclosure for details about our executive compensation programs. We are asking our shareholders to indicate their support for our NEO compensation as described in this Proxy Statement. This proposal, commonly known as a “say-on-pay” proposal, gives our shareholders the opportunity to express their views on our NEOs’ compensation. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of our NEOs and the philosophy, policies and practices described in this Proxy Statement. Accordingly, we will ask our shareholders to vote “FOR” the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:

“RESOLVED, that the shareholders of Permian Resources Corporation (the Company) approve, by a non-binding advisory vote, the compensation of the Named Executive Officers, as disclosed in the Company’s Proxy Statement for the 2024 Annual Meeting pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the 2023 Summary Compensation Table and the other related tables and disclosure.”

The say-on-pay vote is advisory, and therefore not binding on our company, our Board or the Compensation Committee. However, our Board and the Compensation Committee value the opinions of our shareholders and intend to consider our shareholders’ views regarding our executive compensation programs, including in making future decisions relating to such programs.

As further discussed under Proposal 6 below, the Dodd-Frank Act enables shareholders to indicate, on an advisory (non-binding) basis, how frequently companies should seek an advisory vote to approve the compensation of their named executive officers. Under Proposal 6, our shareholders have an opportunity to recommend, on an advisory (non-binding) basis, a “say-on-pay” vote “every year” (see Proposal 6). The next “say-on-pay” vote will take place at the 2025 annual meeting of shareholders.

#### VOTE REQUIRED AND BOARD RECOMMENDATION

The approval by a non-binding advisory vote of our NEO requires the vote of a majority of the votes cast by the shareholders present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on this proposal. Abstentions will not be counted as a vote cast and, therefore, will not have an effect on the outcome of the vote. Broker non-votes have no effect on the outcome of the vote.

| OUR BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AS DISCLOSED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT PURSUANT TO THE COMPENSATION DISCLOSURE RULES OF THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION.

PERMIAN RESOURCES | 2024 PROXY STATEMENT | 69

Back to Contents |

### PROPOSAL 6:

Recommendation on the Frequency of Future Advisory Votes to Approve our Named Executive Officer Compensation

The Dodd-Frank Act also enables our shareholders to indicate, on an advisory (non-binding) basis, how frequently we should seek an advisory vote to approve the compensation of our NEOs, such as Proposal 5 included in this Proxy Statement. By voting on this Proposal 6, shareholders may indicate whether they would prefer future advisory votes to approve NEO compensation every year, every other year or every three years, or shareholders may abstain from voting.

After careful consideration of this Proposal 6, the Board has determined that an advisory vote to approve our NEO compensation that occurs every year is the most appropriate alternative for the Company, and therefore the Board recommends that you vote for “every year” as the frequency of future advisory votes to approve our NEO compensation.

In formulating its recommendation, the Board considered that an annual advisory vote to approve our NEO compensation will allow our shareholders to provide us with their direct input on our compensation philosophy, policies and practices as disclosed in the proxy statement every year, which is consistent with our efforts to engage in an ongoing dialogue with our shareholders on executive compensation and corporate governance matters. We understand that our shareholders may have different views as to what is the best approach for the Company, and we look forward to hearing from our shareholders on this Proposal 6.

You may cast your vote on your preferred voting frequency by choosing the option of every year, every other year or every three years or abstain from voting. However, because this vote is advisory and not binding on the Company or the Board, the Board may decide that it is in the best interests of the Company to hold an advisory vote to approve our NEO compensation more or less frequently than the option approved by our shareholders.

#### VOTE REQUIRED AND BOARD RECOMMENDATION

The option of every year, every other year or every three years that receives a majority of the votes cast by shares that are present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on such matter at the Annual Meeting will be considered the frequency selected by the shareholders. In the event that no option receives such majority, we will consider the option that receives the most votes to be the option selected by the shareholders.

| OUR BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR “EVERY YEAR” AS THE FREQUENCY OF FUTURE ADVISORY VOTES TO APPROVE OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION.

Shareholder ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm is not required by our Second Amended and Restated Bylaws (as amended, the Bylaws), Corporate Governance Guidelines, committee charters or otherwise. However, the Board is submitting the appointment of KPMG LLP to our shareholders for ratification as a matter of what it considers to be good corporate practice.

## QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING

In this section of the Proxy Statement, we answer some common questions regarding the Annual Meeting and the voting of shares of common stock at the Annual Meeting.

##### When and where will the Annual Meeting be held?

The Annual Meeting will take place on May 22, 2024 at 9:00 a.m. Central Time at:

Petroleum Club of Midland
501 West Wall Street
Midland, TX 79701

Although we are currently planning to hold the Annual Meeting in person, in the event it is not possible or advisable to hold the Annual Meeting in person, we will announce alternative arrangements for the Annual Meeting as promptly as practicable, which may include holding a virtual-only or hybrid Annual Meeting rather than an in-person Annual Meeting. If we take this step, details on how to participate will be issued by press release, posted on our website and filed with the SEC as additional proxy material. Therefore, if you are planning to attend our Annual Meeting, please monitor our website prior to the meeting date.

##### Why did I receive a Notice Regarding the Internet Availability of Proxy Materials for the Annual Meeting in the mail instead of a paper copy of the proxy materials?

The SEC has approved rules allowing companies to furnish proxy materials, including this Proxy Statement and our Annual Report, to our shareholders by providing access to such documents on the internet instead of mailing paper copies. We believe these rules provide a convenient and quick way in which our shareholders can access the proxy materials and vote their shares, while allowing us to conserve natural resources and reduce the costs of printing and distributing the proxy materials.

Accordingly, certain of our shareholders will receive a Notice and will not receive paper copies of the proxy materials unless they request them. Instead, the Notice will provide such shareholders with notice of the Annual Meeting and will also provide instructions regarding how such shareholders can access and review all the proxy materials on the internet. The Notice also provides instructions as to how you may submit your proxy electronically via the internet or by telephone. If you received the Notice and you would instead prefer to receive a paper or electronic copy of the proxy materials, you should follow the instructions for requesting such materials that are provided in the Notice. Any request to receive proxy materials by mail or email will remain in effect until you revoke it.

##### Why did you send me the proxy materials or the Notice?

We sent you the proxy materials or the Notice because we are holding our Annual Meeting and our Board is asking for your proxy to vote your shares of common stock at the Annual Meeting. We have summarized information in this Proxy Statement that you should consider in deciding how to vote at the Annual Meeting.

##### Can I vote my shares of common stock by filling out and returning the Notice?

No. The Notice identifies the items to be voted on at the Annual Meeting, but you cannot vote by marking the Notice and returning it. The Notice provides instructions on how to authorize your proxy electronically via the internet, by telephone or by requesting and returning a paper Proxy Card, or you may vote your shares of common stock by submitting an electronic ballot during the Annual Meeting.

##### Who can vote?

You can vote your shares of common stock if our records show that you were the owner of the shares as of the close of business on April 2, 2024, the record date for determining the shareholders who are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. As of April 2, 2024, there were a total of [ ] shares of Class A common stock and [ ] shares of Class C common stock issued and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. You get one vote for each share of common stock that you own.

##### How is a quorum determined?

We will hold the Annual Meeting if shareholders representing the required quorum of shares of common stock entitled to vote authorize their proxy online or telephonically, sign and return their Proxy Cards or attend the Annual Meeting. The presence via live webcast or by proxy of a majority of the shares of common stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting constitutes a quorum. If you authorize your proxy online or telephonically or sign and return your Proxy Card, your shares will be counted to determine whether we have a quorum even if you abstain or fail to indicate your vote on the Proxy Card.

##### What is the required vote for approval?

The approval of the Charter Amendments proposals requires the affirmative vote of shareholders holding at least a majority of the outstanding voting stock of the Company voting together as a single class. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as votes cast “AGAINST” the Charter Amendments proposals.

The election of each of our director nominees requires the vote of a majority of the votes cast by the shareholders present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be counted as votes cast and, therefore, will not have an effect on the results of the election of directors. We have adopted a director resignation policy whereby an incumbent director who fails to receive a majority of the votes cast during an uncontested election may be required by the Board to resign. See “Corporate Governance—Majority Voting in Director Elections” for additional information regarding the majority voting standard for uncontested director elections and our director resignation policy.

The approval by a non-binding advisory vote of our named executive officer compensation and the ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm require the vote of a majority of the votes cast by the shareholders present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal. If you abstain for purposes of these proposals, your abstention will not be counted as a vote cast and, therefore, will not have an effect on the results of such vote. For the approval on an advisory basis of our named executive officer compensation, broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the vote. The rules of the New York Stock Exchange permit brokers to vote uninstructed shares at their discretion regarding the ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm, so there will be no broker non-votes on this proposal.

The recommendation on the frequency of future advisory votes to approve our NEO compensation (every year, every other year, or every three years) that receives the greatest number of votes cast by the shareholders present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal will be considered the frequency recommended by the shareholders. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be counted as votes cast and, therefore, will not have an effect on the results of the recommendation.

##### How do I vote by proxy?

Follow the instructions on the Notice or the Proxy Card to authorize a proxy to vote your shares of common stock at the Annual Meeting electronically via the internet or by telephone or, if you received paper proxy materials, by completing and returning the Proxy Card. The individuals named and designated as proxies will vote your shares of common stock as you instruct. You have the following choices in voting your shares of common stock:

| • | You may vote on each proposal, in which case your shares will be voted in accordance with your choices.
| • | In voting on the election of director nominees, you may either vote “FOR” or “AGAINST” each director.
| • | You may abstain from voting on the proposal to (1) approve the amendment to our Charter to declassify the Board and provide for the annual election of directors, (2) elect the eleven director nominees, if applicable, (3) elect the three Class II directors, if applicable, (4) approve the amendment to our Charter to reflect the latest Delaware law provisions regarding officer exculpation, (5) approve on an advisory basis our named executive officer compensation, (6) recommend on an advisory basis the frequency of future advisory votes to approve our named executive officer compensation and (7) ratify the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm, in which case no vote will be recorded with respect to the proposal.

You may return a signed Proxy Card without indicating your vote on any matter, in which case the designated proxies will vote to (1) approve the amendment to our Charter to declassify the Board and provide for the annual election of directors, (2) elect the eleven director nominees, if applicable, (3) elect the three Class II directors, if applicable, (4) approve the amendment to our Charter to reflect the latest Delaware law provisions regarding officer exculpation, (5) approve on an advisory basis our named executive officer compensation, (6) recommend, on an advisory basis, “every year” as the frequency of future advisory votes to approve our named executive officer compensation and (7) ratify the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm.

##### How can I authorize my proxy online or via telephone?

In order to authorize your proxy online or via telephone, go to www.cstproxyvote.com or call the toll-free number reflected on the Notice, and follow the instructions. If your shares of common stock are held in the name of your broker, a bank or other nominee in “street name,” that party will give you instructions for voting your shares. Please have your Notice in hand when accessing the site, as it contains a Control Number required for access. You can authorize your proxy electronically via the internet or by telephone at any time prior to 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time, on May 21, 2024, the day before the Annual Meeting.

If you received paper proxy materials, you may also refer to the enclosed Proxy Card for instructions. If you choose not to authorize your proxy electronically, please complete and return the paper Proxy Card in the pre-addressed, postage-paid envelope provided.

##### What if other matters come up at the Annual Meeting?

As of the date of this Proxy Statement, the only matters we know of that will be voted on at the Annual Meeting are the proposals we have described herein: (1) the approval of the amendment to our Charter to declassify the Board and provide for the annual election of directors, (2) the election of the eleven director nominees, if applicable, (3) the election of the three Class II directors, if applicable, (4) the approval of the amendment to our Charter to reflect the latest Delaware law provisions regarding officer exculpation, (5) the approval on an advisory basis of our named executive officer compensation, (6) the recommendation on an advisory basis of the frequency of future advisory votes to approve our named executive officer compensation and (7) the ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. If other matters are properly presented at the Annual Meeting, the designated proxies will vote your shares of common stock at their discretion.

##### Can I change my previously authorized vote?

Yes, you can change your vote at any time before the vote on a proposal either by executing or authorizing, dating and delivering to us a new proxy electronically via the internet, by telephone or by mail at any time prior to 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time, on May 21, 2024, the day before the Annual Meeting, by giving us a written notice revoking your Proxy Card or by attending the Annual Meeting and voting your shares of common stock during the Annual Meeting. Your attendance at the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke a proxy previously given by you. We will honor the latest dated proxy.

Proxy revocation notices or new proxy cards should be sent to Permian Resources Corporation, 300 N. Marienfeld St., Ste. 1000, Midland, TX 79701 Attention: General Counsel.

##### Can I vote during the Annual Meeting rather than by authorizing a proxy?

You can attend the Annual Meeting and vote your shares of common stock during the Annual Meeting; however, we encourage you to authorize your proxy to ensure that your vote is counted. Authorizing your proxy electronically or telephonically, or submitting a Proxy Card, will not prevent you from later attending the Annual Meeting and voting your shares during the Annual Meeting.

##### Will my shares of common stock be voted if I do not provide my proxy?

Depending on the proposal, your shares of common stock may be voted if they are held in the name of a brokerage firm, even if you do not provide the brokerage firm with voting instructions. Brokerage firms have the authority under the New York Stock Exchange rules to cast votes on certain “routine” matters if they do not receive instructions from their customers. The proposal to ratify the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm is considered a “routine” matter for which brokerage firms may vote shares without receiving voting instructions.

Brokerage firms do not have the authority under the New York Stock Exchange rules to vote on non-routine matters, which include the approval of the Charter Amendments proposals, the election of directors, the approval on an advisory basis of our named executive officer compensation and the recommendation on an advisory basis on the frequency of future advisory votes to approve our named executive officer compensation. If you do not provide the brokerage firm with voting instructions on these proposals, your shares will not be voted and will result in “broker non-votes.” Broker non-votes will be considered present for the purpose of determining whether we have a quorum. Such broker non-votes will have the effect of counting against the approval of the Charter Amendments proposals; however, they will not have an effect on the election of directors, the approval on an advisory basis of our named executive officer compensation and the recommendation on an advisory basis on the frequency of future advisory votes to approve our named executive officer compensation.

##### What do I do if my shares are held in “street name”?

If your shares of common stock are held in the name of your broker, a bank or other nominee in “street name,” that party will give you instructions for voting your shares. If your shares of common stock are held in “street name” and you would like to electronically vote your shares during the Annual Meeting, you must contact your broker, bank or other nominee to obtain a proxy form from the record holder of your shares.

##### Who will count the votes?

A representative of Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company will count the votes and will serve as the independent inspector of election.

##### Who pays for this proxy solicitation?

We do. We have engaged Morrow Sodali LLC (Morrow Sodali), to assist in the solicitation of proxies for the Annual Meeting. We have agreed to pay Morrow Sodali a fee of $8,500, plus disbursements. We will also reimburse Morrow Sodali for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and will indemnify Morrow Sodali and its affiliates against certain claims, liabilities, losses, damages and expenses. In addition, we will reimburse banks, brokers and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries representing beneficial owners of shares of common stock for their expenses in forwarding soliciting materials to beneficial owners of shares of common stock and in obtaining voting instructions from those owners. In addition to sending you these materials, some of our employees or agents may contact you by telephone, by mail or in person. None of our employees will receive any extra compensation for providing those services.

### APPENDIX A –

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

##### Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures that are used by management and external users of our consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities before changes in working capital, less incurred capital expenditures and adjusted free cash flow as free cash flow before non-recurring merger and integration expense.

Our management believes free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow are useful indicators of the Company’s ability to internally fund its exploration and development activities and to service or incur additional debt, without regard to the timing of settlement of either operating assets and liabilities or accounts payable related to capital expenditures. The Company believes that these measures, as so adjusted, present meaningful indicators of the Company’s actual sources and uses of capital associated with its operations conducted during the applicable period. Our computations of free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net cash provided by operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP or as indicator of our operating performance or liquidity.

Free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow are not financial measures that are determined in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, the following table presents a reconciliation of free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow to net cash provided by operating activities, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP:

|  |  |  | YEAR ENDED
($ in thousands) |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | 12/31/2023
Net cash provided by operating activities |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | 2,213,499
Changes in working capital: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Accounts receivable |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | (36,336)
Prepaid and other assets |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | 27,267
Accounts payable and other liabilities |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | (83,160)
Operating cash flow before working capital changes |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | 2,121,270
Less: total capital expenditures incurred |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | (1,535,217)
Free cash flow |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | 586,053
Merger and integration expense |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | 125,331

Following the surrender of any shares of Class C Common Stock to the Corporation, the Corporation will take all actions necessary to retire such shares and such shares shall not be re-issued by the Corporation.

(2) A Permitted Class C Owner may transfer shares of Class C Common Stock to any transferee (other than the Corporation) only if, and only to the extent permitted by the LLC Agreement, such holder also simultaneously transfers an equal number of such holder’s Common Units to such transferee in compliance with the LLC Agreement. The transfer restrictions described in this Section 4.3(b)(iv)(2) are referred to as the “Restrictions.”

(3) Any purported transfer of shares of Class C Common Stock in violation of the Restrictions shall be null and void. If, notwithstanding the Restrictions, a person shall, voluntarily or involuntarily, purportedly become or attempt to become, the purported owner (“Purported Owner”) of shares of Class C Common Stock in violation of the Restrictions, then the Purported Owner shall not obtain any rights in and to such shares of Class C Common Stock (the “Restricted Shares”), and the purported transfer of the Restricted Shares to the Purported Owner shall not be recognized by the Corporation’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”).

(v) Issuance of Class A Common Stock Upon Redemption; Cancellation of Class C Common Stock.

(1) To the extent that any Permitted Class C Owner exercises its rights pursuant to the LLC Agreement to have its Common Units redeemed by the LLC in accordance with the LLC Agreement, then simultaneous with the payment of the consideration due under the LLC Agreement to such Permitted Class C Owner, the Corporation shall cancel for no consideration a number of shares of Class C Common Stock registered in the name of the redeeming or exchanging Permitted Class C Owner equal to the number of Common Units held by such Permitted Class C Owner that are redeemed or exchanged in such redemption or exchange transaction. The Corporation will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Class A Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon redemption of the Common Units for Class A Common Stock pursuant to the LLC Agreement, such number of shares of Class A Common Stock that shall be issuable upon any such redemption pursuant to the LLC Agreement; provided that nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude the Corporation from satisfying its obligations in respect of any such redemption of Common Units pursuant to the LLC Agreement by delivering to the holder of Common Units upon such redemption cash in lieu of shares of Class A Common Stock in the amount permitted by and provided in the LLC Agreement. All shares of Class A Common Stock that shall be issued upon any such redemption will, upon issuance in accordance with the LLC Agreement, be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

(2) Notwithstanding the Restrictions, (A) in the event that an outstanding share of Class C Common Stock shall cease to be held by a registered holder of Common Units, such share of Class C Common Stock shall automatically and without further action on the part of the Corporation or any Permitted Class C Owner be cancelled for no consideration, and the Corporation will take all actions necessary to retire such share and such share shall not be re-issued by the Corporation, (B) in the event that one or more of the Common Units held by a Permitted Class C Owner ceases to be held by such holder (other than as a result of a transfer of one or more Common Units together with an equal number of shares of Class C Common Stock as permitted by the LLC Agreement), a corresponding number of shares of Class C Common Stock registered in the name of such holder shall automatically and without further action on the part of the Corporation or such holder be cancelled for no consideration, and the Corporation will take all actions necessary to retire such shares and such shares shall not be re-issued by the Corporation and (C) in the event that no Permitted Class C Owner owns any Common Units that are redeemable pursuant to the LLC Agreement, then all shares of Class C Common Stock will be cancelled for no consideration, and the Corporation will take all actions necessary to retire such shares and such shares shall not be re-issued by the Corporation.

(vi) Restrictive Legend. All certificates or book entries representing shares of Class C Common Stock, as the case may be, shall bear a legend substantially in the following form (or in such other form as the Board may determine):

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS [CERTIFICATE] [BOOK ENTRY] ARE SUBJECT TO THE RESTRICTIONS (INCLUDING RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER) SET FORTH IN THE FOURTH FIFTH AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION OF PERMIAN RESOURCES CORPORATION (A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE CORPORATION AND SHALL BE PROVIDED FREE OF CHARGE TO ANY STOCKHOLDER MAKING A REQUEST THEREFOR).

(vii) Amendment. At any time when there are no longer any shares of Class C Common Stock outstanding, this Fourth Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate automatically shall be deemed amended to delete this Section 4.3(b).

(viii) Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up of the Corporation. The holders of Class C Common Stock shall not be entitled to receive any assets of the Corporation in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation.

(c) Dividends.

(d) Class A Common Stock and Class C Common Stock. In no event shall the shares of either Class A Common Stock or Class C Common Stock be split, divided, or combined (including by way of stock dividend) unless the outstanding shares of the other class shall be proportionately split, divided or combined.

(e) Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up of the Corporation. Subject to applicable law, and the rights, if any, of the holders of any outstanding series of the Preferred Stock, in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, after payment or provision for payment of the debts and other liabilities of the Corporation, the holders of shares of Common Stock (other than holders of shares of Class C Common Stock) shall be entitled to receive all the remaining assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders, ratably in proportion to the number of shares of Common Stock (other than shares of Class C Common Stock) held by them.

ARTICLE V. BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Section 5.1 Board Powers. The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by, or under the direction of, the Board. In addition to the powers and authority expressly conferred upon the Board by statute, this Fourth Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate or the Second Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Corporation (“Bylaws”), the Board is hereby empowered to exercise all such powers and do all such acts and things as may be exercised or done by the Corporation, subject, nevertheless, to the provisions of the DGCL, this Fourth Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate, and any Bylaws adopted by the stockholders; provided, however, that no Bylaws hereafter adopted by the stockholders shall invalidate any prior act of the Board that would have been valid if such Bylaws had not been adopted.

Section 5.2 Number, Election and Term.

(a) The number of directors of the Corporation, shall be fixed from time to time in the manner provided in the Bylaws.

(b) Subject to Section 5.5, the Board shall be divided into three classes, as nearly equal in number as possible and designated Class I, Class II and Class III. The Board is authorized to assign members of the Board already in office to Class I, Class II or Class III. The term of the initial Class I Directors shall expire at the first annual meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation following the effectiveness of this Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate; the term of the initial Class II Directors shall expire at the second annual meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation following the effectiveness of this Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate; and the term of the initial Class III Directors shall expire at the third annual meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation following the effectiveness of this Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate. At each succeeding annual meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation, beginning with the first annual meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation following the effectiveness of this Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate, successors to the class of directors whose term expires at that annual meeting shall be elected for a three-year term or until the election and qualification of their respective successors in office, subject to their earlier death, resignation or removal. Subject to Section 5.5, if the number of directors is changed, any increase or decrease shall be apportioned by the Board among the classes so as to maintain the number of directors in each class as nearly equal as possible, but in no case shall a decrease in the number of directors shorten the term of any incumbent director. The Board is hereby expressly authorized, by resolution or resolutions thereof, to assign members of the Board already in office to the aforesaid classes at the time this Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate (and therefore such classification) becomes effective in accordance with the DGCL. Subject to the other provisions of this paragraph and Section 5.5, all directors shall be elected annually, and at each annual meeting of stockholders, each director shall be elected for a term of office to expire at the next annual meeting of stockholders after such director’s election.

(c) Subject to Section 5.5, a director shall hold office until the annual meeting for the year in which his or her term expires and until his or her successor has been duly elected and qualified, subject, however, to such director’s earlier death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal.

(d) Unless and except to the extent that the Bylaws shall so require, the election of directors need not be by written ballot.

(e) Except as otherwise required by law or this Fourth Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate (including any Preferred Stock Designation), at all duly called or convened meetings of stockholders, at which a quorum is present, a nominee for director shall be elected to the Board if the votes cast for such nominee’s election exceed the votes cast against such nominee’s election (with any abstentions or broker non-votes not counted as a vote cast either for or against that nominee’s election); provided, however, that a plurality of the votes cast shall be sufficient to elect a director at any duly called or convened meeting of stockholders, at which a quorum is present, if the Secretary of the Corporation determines that the number of nominees exceeds the number of directors to be elected as of the record date for such meeting. If directors are to be elected by a plurality of the votes cast, stockholders shall not be permitted to vote against a nominee.

The affirmative vote of a majority of the Board shall be required to adopt, amend, alter or repeal the Bylaws. The Bylaws also may be adopted, amended, altered or repealed by the stockholders; provided, however, that in addition to any vote of the holders of any class or series of capital stock of the Corporation required by law or by this Fourth Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate (including any Preferred Stock Designation), the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, shall be required for the stockholders to adopt, amend, alter or repeal the Bylaws; and provided further, however, that no Bylaws hereafter adopted by the stockholders shall invalidate any prior act of the Board that would have been valid if such Bylaws had not been adopted.

ARTICLE VIII. LIMITED LIABILITY; INDEMNIFICATION

Section 8.1 Limitation of Director and Officer Liability. A director or officer of the Corporation shall not be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted under the DGCL as the same exists or may hereafter be amended unless they violated their duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, acted in bad faith, knowingly or intentionally violated the law, authorized unlawful payments of dividends, unlawful stock purchases or unlawful redemptions, or derived improper personal benefit from their actions as directors. Any amendment, modification or repeal of the foregoing sentence, or the adoption of any provision of this Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate inconsistent with this Section 8.1, shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director or officer of the Corporation hereunder in respect of any act or omission occurring prior to the time of such amendment, modification or repeal. If the DGCL is amended after approval by the stockholders of this Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors or officers, then the liability of a director or officer of the Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL as so amended.

Section 8.2 Indemnification and Advancement of Expenses.

(a) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended, the Corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless each person who is or was made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “proceeding”) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or, while a director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust, other enterprise or nonprofit entity, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan (an “indemnitee”), whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent, or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee or agent, against all liability and loss suffered and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes and penalties and amounts paid in settlement) reasonably incurred by such indemnitee in connection with such proceeding. The Corporation shall to the fullest extent not prohibited by applicable law pay the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an indemnitee in defending or otherwise participating in any proceeding in advance of its final disposition; provided, however, that, to the extent required by applicable law, such payment of expenses in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking, by or on behalf of the indemnitee, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that the indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified under this Section 8.2 or otherwise. The rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses conferred by this Section 8.2 shall be contract rights and such rights shall continue as to an indemnitee who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors and administrators.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.2(a), except for proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses, the Corporation shall indemnify and advance expenses to an indemnitee in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such indemnitee only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board.

(b) The rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses conferred on any indemnitee by this Section 8.2 shall not be exclusive of any other rights that any indemnitee may have or hereafter acquire under law, this Fourth Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate, the Bylaws, an agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise.

(c) Any repeal or amendment of this Section 8.2 by the stockholders of the Corporation or by changes in law, or the adoption of any other provision of this Fourth Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate inconsistent with this Section 8.2, shall, unless otherwise required by law, be prospective only (except to the extent such amendment or change in law permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights on a retroactive basis than permitted prior thereto), and shall not in any way diminish or adversely affect any right or protection existing at the time of such repeal or amendment or adoption of such inconsistent provision in respect of any proceeding (regardless of when such proceeding is first threatened, commenced or completed) arising out of, or related to, any act or omission occurring prior to such repeal or amendment or adoption of such inconsistent provision.

(d) This Section 8.2 shall not limit the right of the Corporation, to the extent and in the manner authorized or permitted by law, to indemnify and to advance expenses to persons other than indemnitees.

In addition to the foregoing, the doctrine of corporate opportunity shall not apply to any other corporate opportunity with respect to any of the directors or officers of the Corporation unless such corporate opportunity is offered to such person solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Corporation and such opportunity is one the Corporation is legally and contractually permitted to undertake and would otherwise be reasonable for the Corporation to pursue.

If any action the subject matter of which is within the scope of clause (a) of the immediately preceding sentence is filed in a court other than the courts in the State of Delaware (a “Foreign Action”) in the name of any stockholder, such stockholder shall be deemed to have consented to (x) the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in the State of Delaware in connection with any action brought in any such court to enforce the provisions of clause (a) of the immediately preceding sentence and (y) having service of process made upon such stockholder in any such action by service upon such stockholder’s counsel in the Foreign Action as agent for such stockholder.

If any provision or provisions of this Article XI shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable as applied to any circumstance for any reason whatsoever, (a) the validity, legality and enforceability of such provisions in any other circumstance and of the remaining provisions of this Article XI (including, without limitation, each portion of any paragraph of this Article XI containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable that is not itself held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the application of such provision to other persons or entities and circumstances shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
