*CNX is not a guarantor of CNXM's 4.75% Senior Notes due April 2030 or the CNXM Credit Facility.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, CNX issued $200,000 aggregate principal amount of additional 7.25% senior notes due 2032 (the "New Notes") at a price of 100.5% of par, plus accrued interest from September 1, 2024 to the date of closing less an underwriter discount and other issuance costs of $1,500. The New Notes were issued as additional notes under that certain indenture, dated February 23, 2024 (the "Indenture"), pursuant to which CNX previously issued $400,000 aggregate principal amount of 7.25% senior notes due 2032 (the "Initial Notes"). The New Notes are guaranteed by all of CNX's restricted subsidiaries that guarantee the CNX Credit Facility (see Note 8 – Revolving Credit Facilities) and will have identical terms as the Initial Notes, other than the issue date, the initial offering price and the first interest payment date, and the New Notes and the Initial Notes will be treated as a single class of securities under the Indenture and will vote together as a single class.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, CNX issued $400,000 aggregate principal amount of 7.25% CNX Senior Notes due March 2032 (the "CNX Senior Notes due March 2032") less an underwriter discount and other issuance costs of $5,000. The CNX Senior Notes due March 2032, along with the related guarantees, were issued pursuant to an indenture dated February 23, 2024 and accrue interest from February 23, 2024 at a rate of 7.25% per year. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, beginning on September 1, 2024. The CNX Senior Notes due March 2032 mature on March 1, 2032. Payment of the principal and interest on the notes is guaranteed by most of CNX’s subsidiaries but does not include CNXM (or its subsidiaries or general partner).

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, CNX purchased and retired $350,000 of its outstanding 7.25% Senior Notes due March 2027. As part of the transaction, a loss of $7,043 was included in Loss on Debt Extinguishment in the Consolidated Statements of Income during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

In 2020, CNX issued $345,000 in aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes due May 2026 ("the Convertible Notes") in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including $45,000 aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes issued pursuant to the exercise in full of the initial purchasers’ option to purchase additional Convertible Notes. The Convertible Notes are senior, unsecured obligations of the Company. The Convertible Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 2.25% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 of each year, commencing on November 1, 2020. Proceeds from the issuance of the Convertible Notes totaled $334,650, net of initial purchaser discounts and issuance costs. The Convertible Notes are guaranteed by most of CNX's subsidiaries but does not include CNXM (or its subsidiaries or general partner).

The initial conversion rate is 77.8816 shares of CNX's common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $12.84 per share, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of specified events.

The Convertible Notes will mature on May 1, 2026, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. Before February 1, 2026, noteholders will have the right to convert their Convertible Notes only upon the occurrence of the following events:
during any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter) commencing after June 30, 2020, if the Last Reported Sale Price per share of Common Stock exceeds one hundred and thirty percent (130%) of the Conversion Price for each of at least twenty (20) Trading Days (whether or not consecutive) during the thirty (30) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the last Trading Day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter;
during the five (5) consecutive Business Days immediately after any ten (10) consecutive trading day period (such ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period, the "Measurement Period") if the trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, as determined following a request by a Holder in accordance with the procedures set forth in the indenture, for each trading day of the Measurement Period was less than ninety eight percent (98%) of the product of the last reported sale price per share of common stock on such trading day and the conversion rate on such trading day;
if CNX calls any or all of the Convertible Notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date; or
upon the occurrence of certain specified corporate events as set forth in the indenture governing the Convertible Notes.

From and after February 1, 2026, noteholders may convert their Convertible Notes at any time at their election until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date.

Upon conversion, the Company may satisfy its conversion obligation by paying and/or delivering, as the case may be, cash, shares of the Company’s common stock or a combination of cash and shares of the Company’s common stock, at the Company’s election, in the manner and subject to the terms and conditions provided in the indenture governing the Convertible Notes. The conversion rate is subject to adjustment under certain circumstances in accordance with the terms of the indenture governing the Convertible Notes. In addition, following certain corporate events, as described in the indenture governing the Convertible Notes, that occur prior to the maturity date, the Company will increase the conversion rate, in certain circumstances, for a holder who elects to convert its Convertible Notes in connection with such a corporate event.

The Company is currently evaluating the methods in which the convertible obligation will be settled upon conversion.

If certain corporate events that constitute a “Fundamental Change” (as defined in the indenture governing the Convertible Notes) occur, then noteholders may require the Company to repurchase their Convertible Notes at a cash repurchase price equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. The definition of Fundamental Change includes certain business combination transactions involving the Company and certain de-listing events with respect to the Company’s common stock.

Pursuant to the terms of the Convertible Notes indenture, the Sale Price per share of Common Stock condition for conversion of the Convertible Notes was satisfied as of September 30, 2025, and, accordingly, holders of Convertible Notes are permitted to convert any of their Convertible Notes, at their option, at any time during the quarter beginning on October 1, 2025 and ending on December 31, 2025, subject to all terms and conditions set forth in the Convertible Notes indenture.

The reported interest expense for the Convertible Notes is equal to the 2.25% cash coupon rate. Also, the Company uses the if-converted method for the assumed conversion of the Convertible Notes when calculating diluted earnings per share.

In accounting for the debt issuance costs of $10,350, the Company allocated the total amount incurred to the liability and equity components using the same proportions as the proceeds of the Convertible Notes. Issuance costs attributable to the liability component were $7,024 and were being amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the contractual term of the Convertible Notes. Issuance costs attributable to the equity component were $3,326 and were netted with the equity component in Capital in Excess of Par Value in the Consolidated Statement of Stockholders Equity.

The net carrying amount of the liability and equity components of the Convertible Notes was as follows:

In connection with the offering of the Convertible Notes, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions with certain counterparties (the "Capped Calls"). The Capped Calls each have an initial strike price of $12.84 per share, subject to certain adjustments, which correspond to the initial conversion price of the Convertible Notes. The Capped Calls have an initial cap price of $18.19 per share, subject to certain adjustments. The Capped Calls cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments, the aggregate number of shares of the Company’s common stock that initially underlie the Convertible Notes, and are expected generally to reduce potential dilution to the Company’s common stock upon any conversion of Convertible Notes and/or offset any cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Convertible Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap, based on the cap price of the Capped Call Transactions. The conditions that cause adjustments to the initial strike price of the Capped Calls mirror the conditions that result in corresponding adjustments for the Convertible Notes. For accounting purposes, the Capped Calls are separate transactions, and not part of the terms of the Convertible Notes. As these transactions meet certain accounting criteria, the Capped Calls are recorded in stockholders’ equity and are not accounted for as derivatives. The cost of $35,673 incurred in connection with the Capped Calls was recorded as a reduction to Capital in Excess of Par Value.
