Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 21, 2021, Marathon Oil Corporation entered into a Sixth Amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of May 28, 2014 (as previously amended and supplemented, the “Credit Agreement”). The Amendment, which includes customary representations and warranties, amends the Credit Agreement to, among other things, (i) increase the size of the credit facility from $3 billion to $3.149 billion, (ii) extend the maturity of the commitments of certain consenting lenders from May 28, 2023 to June 21, 2024 (with the remaining commitments of the non-consenting lenders to mature on May 28, 2023, at which time the size of the credit facility will be reduced to $2.995 billion), (iii) implement certain revisions to the Pricing Schedule and (iv) include certain other provisions, including provisions to provide for the eventual replacement of LIBOR as a benchmark interest rate.

One or more lenders party to the Amendment have in the past performed, and may in the future from time to time perform, investment banking, financial advisory, lending or commercial banking services for us and our subsidiaries, for which they have received, and may in the future receive, customary compensation and reimbursement of expenses.

The above description of the material terms and conditions of the Amendment is a summary only and does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
