Recent and pending transactions

Colgate Merger

On September 1, 2022, we completed the merger (the “Colgate Merger”) of OpCo with Colgate Energy Partners III, LLC (“Colgate”), pursuant to which OpCo merged with and into Colgate, with OpCo continuing as the surviving entity in the Colgate Merger as our subsidiary. As consideration for the Colgate Merger, 269,300,000 shares of Class C common stock and 269,300,000 of OpCo Units were issued to Colgate’s former equity holders, as well as $525 million in cash. In connection with the closing of the Colgate Merger, we changed our name from “Centennial Resource Development, Inc.” to “Permian Resources Corporation” and transferred the listing of our Class A common stock to the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “PR.”

Pending Earthstone Merger; Novo Acquisition

As discussed under “Summary—Earthstone Merger,” on August 21, 2023, we announced that we entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Earthstone Merger Agreement”) with Earthstone Energy, Inc. (“Earthstone”), pursuant to which Earthstone and its subsidiaries will become our subsidiaries (the “Earthstone Merger”). As part of the transactions to be consummated pursuant to the Earthstone Merger, Earthstone Energy Holdings, LLC (“Earthstone OpCo”) will be merged with and into OpCo (the “OpCo Merger”), with OpCo

S-ii

surviving the OpCo Merger. The Earthstone Merger is structured as an all-stock transaction and remains subject to customary closing conditions, regulatory approvals and shareholder approvals. Our board of directors has fixed the close of business on September 20, 2023 as the record date for the determination of our stockholders entitled to receive notice of, and to vote at, our special meeting (or any adjournments or postponements thereof) of stockholders relating to the Earthstone Merger, with such special meeting to be held on October 30, 2023 at 10:00 a.m., Central Time, at the Petroleum Club of Midland located at 501 West Wall Street, Midland, Texas 79701. However, no assurance can be given that the Earthstone Merger will be completed.

On August 15, 2023, a subsidiary of Earthstone completed the acquisition (the “Novo Acquisition”) of all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Novo Oil & Gas Legacy Holdings, LLC, Novo Intermediate, LLC and Novo Oil & Gas Holdings, LLC (collectively “Novo”) and, immediately thereafter, Northern Oil and Gas, Inc. acquired an undivided and one-third interest in Novo’s oil and gas assets, which Earthstone acquired in the Novo Acquisition, for approximately $500.0 million (the “NOG Divestiture” and, together with the Novo Acquisition, the “Novo Transactions”). In consideration of the Novo Transactions, Earthstone paid aggregate cash consideration of approximately $1.4 billion, which was funded through a combination of cash, including the cash proceeds received pursuant to the NOG Divestiture, and borrowings under Earthstone’s credit facility.

We refer herein to the Earthstone Merger, after giving effect to the Novo Transactions, as the “Earthstone Transactions.”

Pro forma presentation

This prospectus also includes and incorporates by reference certain “pro forma” financial, operating and reserves data. As used herein and unless expressly provided otherwise, the term “pro forma” when used with respect to any financial, operating and reserves data refers to the historical data of the Company, as adjusted as described herein. Specifically, as applicable based on the periods presented and as more fully discussed in the succeeding paragraph, the pro forma financial, operating and reserves data includes adjustments relating to the Earthstone Transactions and the Colgate Merger (collectively, the “Transactions”).

Pro forma financial data for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the six months ended June 30, 2023 gives effect to the Transactions and the Earthstone Transactions, respectively, as if they had been consummated on January 1, 2022. Pro forma financial and operating data as of June 30, 2023 respectively give effect to the Earthstone Transactions as if they had been consummated on June 30, 2023. Pro forma reserve data as of December 31, 2022 give effect to the Earthstone Transactions as if they had been completed on December 31, 2022.

Pro forma financial data contains certain reclassification adjustments to conform the respective historical Novo, Colgate and Earthstone financial statement presentation to the Company’s financial statement presentation. Pro forma reserve data generally represents the arithmetic sum of the proved reserves, standard measure of discounted future net cash flows (the “standardized measure”) and associated pre-tax present value discounted at ten percent (“PV-10”) attributable to the Company, Earthstone and Novo, after giving effect to the NOG Divestiture. The proved reserves of Earthstone and Novo are based on their respective development plans and their reserve engineers’ respective reserve estimation methodologies. Because we will develop such proved reserves in accordance with our own development plan and, in the future, will estimate proved reserves in accordance with our own methodologies, the estimates presented herein for Earthstone and Novo may not be representative of our future reserve estimates with respect to these properties or the reserve estimates we would have reported if it had owned such properties as of December 31, 2022.

In each case, the pro forma data is presented for illustrative purposes only and should not be relied upon as an indication of the financial condition, the operating results or reserves estimates that would have been achieved if the Transactions had taken place on the specified dates. In addition, future results may vary significantly from the results reflected in such pro forma data and should not be relied on as an indication of future results. See our unaudited pro forma combined financial statements and the related notes thereto incorporated by reference herein for additional information.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The information in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying base prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements, other than statements of historical fact included or incorporated by reference herein regarding our strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of management are forward-looking statements. When used in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying base prospectus or the documents incorporated by reference herein, the words “could,” “may,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “goal,” “plan,” “target” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain such identifying words. These forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations and assumptions about future events and are based on currently available information as to the outcome and timing of future events. When considering forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind the risk factors and other cautionary statements described in “Risk Factors” or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, they do involve certain assumptions, risks and uncertainties. Our results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including, among others:

• volatility of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids (“NGLs”) prices or a prolonged period of low oil, natural gas or NGL prices and the effects of actions by, or disputes among or between, members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, such as Saudi Arabia, and other oil and natural gas producing countries, such as Russia, with respect to production levels or other matters related to the price of oil;

• political and economic conditions in or affecting other producing regions or countries, including the Middle East, Russia, Eastern Europe, Africa and South America;

• the effects of excess supply of oil and natural gas resulting from the reduced demand caused by the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) pandemic and the actions by certain oil and natural gas producing countries;

• our business strategy and future drilling plans;

• risks related to the Transactions, including the risk that we may fail to complete the Earthstone Merger and/or to realize the anticipated benefits and synergies from the Transactions and effectively integrate the assets associated with the Transactions;

• our reserves and our ability to replace the reserves we produce through drilling and property acquisitions;

• our drilling prospects, inventories, projects and programs;

• our financial strategy, return of capital program, leverage, liquidity and capital required for our development program;

• our realized oil, natural gas and NGL prices;

• the timing and amount of our future production of oil, natural gas and NGLs;

• our ability to identify, complete and effectively integrate acquisitions of properties or businesses, including the Transactions;

• our hedging strategy and results;

• our competition and government regulations;

• our ability to obtain permits and governmental approvals;

S-iv

• our pending legal or environmental matters;

• the marketing and transportation of our oil, natural gas and NGLs;

• our leasehold or business acquisitions, including the Transactions;

• cost of developing or operating our properties;

• our anticipated rate of return;

• general economic conditions;

• weather conditions in the areas where we operate;

• credit markets;

• our ability to make dividends, distributions and share repurchases;

• uncertainty regarding our future operating results; and

• our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions contained in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus that are not historical.

We caution you that these forward-looking statements are subject to all of the risks and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control, incident to the development, production, gathering and sale of oil and natural gas. These risks include, but are not limited to, commodity price volatility, inflation, lack of availability of drilling and production equipment and services, risks relating to the Transactions environmental risks, drilling and other operating risks, regulatory changes, the uncertainty inherent in estimating reserves and in projecting future rates of production, cash flow and access to capital, the timing of development expenditures and the other risks described under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Current Reports on Form 8-K, incorporated herein by reference.

Reserve engineering is a process of estimating underground accumulations of oil and natural gas that cannot be measured in an exact way. The accuracy of any reserve estimate depends on the quality of available data, the interpretation of such data and price and cost assumptions made by reserve engineers. In addition, the results of drilling, testing and production activities may justify revisions of estimates that were made previously. If significant, such revisions would change the schedule of any further production and development drilling. Accordingly, reserve estimates may differ significantly from the quantities of oil and natural gas that are ultimately recovered.

Should one or more of the risks or uncertainties described in this prospectus supplement or the accompanying base prospectus occur, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results and plans could differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements.

All forward-looking statements, expressed or implied, included in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary note. This cautionary note should also be considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that we or persons acting on our behalf may issue.

Except as otherwise required by applicable law, we disclaim any duty to update any forward-looking statements, all of which are expressly qualified by the statements in this section, to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this prospectus supplement.

SUMMARY

This summary highlights information included elsewhere in, or incorporated by reference into, this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus. The following summary should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by, the more detailed information and financial statements (including the accompanying notes) appearing elsewhere in, or incorporated by reference into, this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus. This summary does not contain all of the information that you should consider before investing in our Class A common stock. The information presented in this prospectus supplement assumes, unless otherwise indicated, that the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares of Class A common stock is not exercised.

Our SEC reserve estimates as of December 31, 2022 presented in, and incorporated by reference into, this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus are based on a report prepared by Netherland, Sewell & Associates, Inc. (“NSAI”), our independent reserve engineer. The SEC reserve estimates of Earthstone as of December 31, 2022 presented in, and incorporated by reference into, this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus are based on a report prepared by Cawley, Gillespie & Associates, Inc. (“CG&A”), Earthstone’s independent reserve engineer. The SEC reserve estimates of Novo, after giving effect to the NOG Divestiture, as of December 31, 2022 presented in, and incorporated by reference into, this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus are based on reports prepared by NSAI, Novo’s independent reserve engineer. We refer to such reports herein as the “reserve reports.”

Overview

We are an independent oil and natural gas company focused on driving sustainable returns through the responsible acquisition, optimization and development of high-return oil and natural gas properties. Our principal business objective is to deliver leading shareholder returns by leveraging our high-quality asset base and technical expertise to efficiently develop our oil and natural gas assets in an environmentally and socially responsible way. We intend to drive disciplined production growth through optimized development of our assets with the overall objective of improving our rates of return, generating sustainable free cash flow, maintaining a strong and flexible balance sheet and maximizing returns to our shareholders. We also look for opportunities to add to our portfolio of high-return, long-life inventory through accretive acquisitions that meet our strategic and financial objectives.

Our assets are concentrated in the core of the Delaware Basin and consist of large, contiguous acreage blocks in West Texas and New Mexico. As of June 30, 2023, we had approximately 181,000 net leasehold acres, 95% of which we operate, and approximately 43,000 net royalty acres. Approximately 67% of our total acreage is located in Texas, primarily in Reeves and Ward Counties, and the remaining 33% is located in Lea and Eddy Counties in New Mexico. As of June 30, 2023, approximately 97% of our net acreage is held by production. As discussed further below under “—Earthstone Merger,” we entered into the Earthstone Merger Agreement in August 2023 to acquire the assets and operations of Earthstone, which itself acquired certain of the assets and operations of Novo earlier in August pursuant to the Novo Transactions. As adjusted to give effect to these Earthstone Transactions, our net leasehold position as of June 30, 2023 would have comprised approximately 404,000 net acres spanning the Delaware and Midland Basins. Of this net leasehold acreage position, approximately 73% is in Texas and 27% is in New Mexico, with 94% operated and 97% held by production, each with respect to the total net leasehold acreage position. The relatively high proportion of our operated acreage that is held by production gives us significant operational control and capital spending flexibility. This allows us to execute an optimal development program with significant control over the timing and allocation of capital expenditures to efficiently develop our high-quality asset base to drive returns to investors.

Earthstone Merger

On August 21, 2023, we announced our entry into the Earthstone Merger Agreement, pursuant to which our business and the business of Earthstone will combine through Earthstone and its subsidiaries becoming our subsidiaries. In connection with the Earthstone Merger, Earthstone OpCo, the operating subsidiary of Earthstone holding substantially all of Earthstone’s assets, will be merged with and into OpCo pursuant to the OpCo Merger, with OpCo surviving the OpCo Merger.

Pursuant to the Earthstone Merger Agreement, among other things, each share of Earthstone’s Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and Class B common stock, par value $0.001 per share (subject, in each case, to certain exceptions), will be exchanged for shares of Class A common stock or shares of Class C common stock, respectively. In the aggregate, we expect to issue approximately 161.2 million and 49.5 million shares of Class A common stock and Class C common stock, respectively, at the closing of the Earthstone Merger.

The Earthstone Merger is structured as an all-stock transaction and remains subject to customary closing conditions, regulatory approvals and shareholder approvals. Our board of directors has fixed the close of business on September 20, 2023 as the record date for the determination of our stockholders entitled to receive notice of, and to vote at, our special meeting (or any adjournments or postponements thereof) of stockholders relating to the Earthstone Merger, with such special meeting to be held on October 30, 2023 at 10:00 a.m., Central Time, at the Petroleum Club of Midland located at 501 West Wall Street, Midland, Texas 79701. However, no assurance can be given that the Earthstone Merger will be completed.

As a result of the Earthstone Merger, we expect to acquire approximately 223,000 net leasehold acres, increasing our total net leasehold acres to over 400,000 in the Delaware Basin and Midland Basin. Pro forma for the Earthstone Transactions, we estimate that our 2023 average net daily production will be approximately 300,000 Boe/d. We believe that the Earthstone Merger enhances our leading position in the Delaware Basin while increasing operating size and scale, adds significant high-quality inventory offset to our core acreage in New Mexico and is expected to be highly accretive to key financial metrics before synergies, including operating cash flow, free cash flow and net asset value per share.

Recent Developments

Dividend Announcement

On August 2, 2023, we announced that our board of directors declared a quarterly base cash dividend of $0.05 per share of Class A common stock, a quarterly variable cash dividend of $0.05 per share of Class A

S-3

common stock and a quarterly cash distribution of $0.10 per OpCo Unit. The dividend was paid on August 23, 2023 to shareholders of record as of August 15, 2023.

Amendments to Our Credit Agreement

On September 1, 2023, we entered into the fourth amendment (the “fourth amendment”) to the amended and restated credit agreement (as amended and restated, the “credit agreement”) governing our senior secured credit facility (our “credit facility”). The fourth amendment expanded the waiver of the automatic reduction of the borrowing base under the credit agreement to, among other things, allow for the assumption (or the issuance, in certain circumstances) of up to $1.05 billion principal amount of Permitted Senior Unsecured Notes (as defined in the credit agreement) to refinance debt that may be assumed pursuant to the Earthstone Merger and otherwise allow for the issuance of Permitted Senior Unsecured Notes up to an aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion. Accordingly, our borrowing base was not reduced in connection with the issuance of the 2032 Notes (as defined below).

Also on September 1, 2023, we entered into a limited consent and fifth amendment (the “fifth amendment”) to the credit agreement. The fifth amendment is subject to customary closing and post-closing conditions and is contingent on the closing of the Earthstone Merger prior to the outside date (as described in the fifth amendment). The fifth amendment will become immediately effective following the consummation of the Earthstone Merger. The fifth amendment, among other things, will (i) waive compliance with certain restrictive covenants in our credit agreement to enable the Earthstone Merger, subject to certain customary conditions, (ii) add additional lenders to the credit facility, including current lenders under Earthstone’s existing debt instruments, and (iii) increase the elected commitments by $500.0 million, resulting in total elected commitments of $2.0 billion.

Notes Offering

On September 12, 2023, OpCo completed a private placement pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act of $500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its 7.000% Senior Notes due 2032 (the “2032 Notes”). The 2032 Notes mature on January 15, 2032 and pay interest at the rate of 7.000% per year, payable on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning on January 15, 2024. The 2032 Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Company and all of OpCo’s subsidiaries that guarantee its obligations under our credit facility. The net proceeds from the offering of the 2032 Notes were raised to repay indebtedness, including amounts outstanding under our credit facility and potentially including amounts to be assumed in connection with the closing of the Earthstone Transactions. If a Special Mandatory Redemption Event (as defined in the indenture governing the 2032 Notes (the “2032 Indenture”)) occurs, OpCo will be required to redeem all of the outstanding notes on the Special Mandatory Redemption Date (as defined in the 2032 Indenture) at the Special Mandatory Redemption Price (as defined in the 2032 Indenture).

Concurrent OpCo Unit Purchase

In connection with this offering, OpCo has agreed to purchase from the Selling Stockholders an aggregate 2,200,000 OpCo Units, at a price per OpCo Unit equal to the price per share to be received by the Selling Stockholders in this offering and to cancel a corresponding number of shares of Class C common stock held by the Selling Stockholders. The total amount paid by OpCo to the Selling Stockholders will be approximately $27.9 million. This offering is not conditioned upon the completion of the Concurrent OpCo Unit Purchase, but the Concurrent OpCo Unit Purchase is conditioned upon the completion of this offering.

We intend to fund the Concurrent OpCo Unit Purchase with cash on hand.

S-10

Non-GAAP financial measures

Adjusted EBITDAX

Adjusted EBITDAX is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of our consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. We define Adjusted EBITDAX as net income attributable to Class A common stock before net income/loss attributable to noncontrolling interest, interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization, impairment and abandonment expense, non-cash gains or losses on derivatives, stock-based compensation (not cash-settled), exploration and other expenses, merger and integration expense, gain/loss from the sale of long-lived assets and non-recurring items. Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measure of net income, or any other performance metric, as determined in accordance with GAAP.

Our management believes Adjusted EBITDAX is useful as it allows them to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and compare the results of our operations from period to period and against our peers, without regard to our financing methods or capital structure. We exclude the items listed above from net income in arriving at Adjusted EBITDAX because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as determined in accordance with GAAP or as an indicator of our operating performance or liquidity. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDAX are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDAX. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDAX should not be construed as an inference that our results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items. Our computations of Adjusted EBITDAX may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

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 capital expenditures incurred/paid 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 our ability to internally fund our future exploration and development activities, to service our existing level of indebtedness or incur additional debt, without regard to the timing of settlement of either operating assets and liabilities or our merger and integration costs and after funding our capital expenditures incurred or paid for the period. We believe that these measures, as so adjusted, present meaningful indicators of our actual sources and uses of capital associated with our 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 alternatives to, or more meaningful than, net cash provided by operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP or as indicators of our operating performance or liquidity.

Adjusted EBITDAX, Free cash flow and Adjusted free cash flow are not financial measures that are determined in accordance with GAAP and should be read in conjunction with the information contained in our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.

S-11

The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDAX to net income (loss), the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, and Free cash flow and Adjusted free cash flow to net cash provided by operating activities, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Summary historical and pro forma reserve estimates

The following tables present, for the periods and as of the dates indicated, summary data with respect to each of our, Earthstone’s and Novo’s estimated net proved oil and natural gas reserves, individually and on a pro forma combined basis.

The reserve estimates attributable to our properties as of December 31, 2022 presented in the table below are based on a reserve report prepared by NSAI. The reserve estimates attributable to Earthstone’s properties as of December 31, 2022 presented in the table below are based on a reserve report prepared by CG&A. The reserve estimates attributable to the assets Earthstone acquired following the Novo Transactions as of December 31, 2022 presented in the table below are based on reserve reports prepared by NSAI. All of these reserve estimates were prepared in accordance with the SEC’s rules regarding oil and natural gas reserve reporting that are currently in effect. Pro forma reserve data as of December 31, 2022 give effect to the Earthstone Transactions as if they had been completed on December 31, 2022.

The following summary pro forma reserve information has been prepared for illustrative purposes only and is not intended to be a projection of future results of the combined company. Future results may vary significantly from the results reflected because of various factors.

(1) Our reserves and PV-10 were determined using average first-day-of-the-month prices for the prior 12 months in accordance with SEC guidance. For oil and NGL volumes, the average West Texas Intermediate

S-14

(“WTI”) posted price of $90.15 per barrel (“Bbl”) as of December 31, 2022 was adjusted for items such as quality, transportation fees and market differentials. For natural gas volumes, the average Henry Hub Index spot price of $6.357 per million British thermal unit (“MMBtu”) as of December 31, 2022 was similarly adjusted for items such as energy content, transportation fees and market differentials. All prices are held constant throughout the lives of the properties. The average adjusted product prices over the remaining lives of the properties are $91.43 per barrel of oil, $5.01 per thousand cubic feet (“Mcf”) of natural gas and $40.90 per barrel of NGLs as of December 31, 2022.

(2) Earthstone’s reserves and PV-10 were determined using average first-day-of-the-month prices for the prior 12 months in accordance with SEC guidance. The oil price as of December 31, 2022 is based on the respective 12-month unweighted average of the first of the month prices of the WTI spot prices, which equates to $93.67 per barrel. The natural gas price as of December 31, 2022 is based on the respective 12-month unweighted average of the first of the month prices of the Henry Hub Index spot price, which equates to $6.36 per MMBtu. The NGL price used to value reserves as of December 31, 2022 averaged $39.24 per barrel. All prices are adjusted by lease or field for energy content, transportation fees, and market differentials, resulting in the aforementioned oil, natural gas and NGL reserves as of December 31, 2022 being valued using prices of $95.82 per barrel, $5.51 per MMBtu and $39.24 per barrel, respectively. All prices are held constant in accordance with SEC guidelines.

(3) Represents reserves acquired as a part of the Earthstone Transactions, which have been adjusted to reflect solely the portion of Novo’s oil and gas reserves retained by Earthstone.

(4) Pro forma reserve data generally represents the arithmetic sum of the proved reserves, the standardized measure and associated pre-tax present value discounted at ten percent (“PV-10”) attributable to the Company, Earthstone and Novo, after giving effect to the NOG Divestiture. The proved reserves of Earthstone and Novo are based on their respective development plans and their reserve engineers’ respective reserve estimation methodologies. Because we will develop such proved reserves in accordance with our own development plan and, in the future, will estimate proved reserves in accordance with our own methodologies, the estimates presented herein for Earthstone and Novo may not be representative of our future reserve estimates with respect to these properties or the reserve estimates we would have reported if it had owned such properties as of December 31, 2022.

(5) Calculated by converting natural gas to oil equivalent barrels at a ratio of six Mcf of natural gas to one barrel of oil equivalent (“Boe”).

(6) Total proved PV-10 is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure as defined by the SEC and is derived from the standardized measure, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. PV-10 is computed on the same basis as the standardized measure but without deducting future income taxes. We believe PV-10 is a useful measure for investors when evaluating the relative monetary significance of our oil and natural gas properties. We further believe investors may utilize our PV-10 as a basis for comparison of the relative size and value of our proved reserves to other companies because many factors that are unique to each individual company impact the amount of future income taxes to be paid. However, PV-10 is not a substitute for the standardized measure. Our PV-10 and standardized measure do not purport to present the fair value of our proved oil, NGL and natural gas reserves.

RISK FACTORS

The shares of our Class A common stock offered by this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectuses involve a high degree of risk. You should read carefully the risks and uncertainties described under the heading “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Current Reports on Form 8-K, each of which is incorporated herein by reference, together with all of the other information included in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying base prospectus and the documents we incorporate by reference, in evaluating an investment in our Class A common stock. Our business, prospects, financial condition or operating results could be harmed by any of these risks, as well as other risks not currently known to us or that we currently consider immaterial. The trading price of our Class A common stock could decline due to any of these risks, and, as a result, you may lose all or part of your investment. Before deciding whether to invest in our Class A common stock, you should also refer to the other information contained in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus, including the section entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Risks Related to this Offering and our Class A common stock

The prevailing market price of shares of our Class A common stock may be volatile.

The prevailing market price of shares of our Class A common stock may fluctuate due to a variety of factors, including:

• the Earthstone Merger and any reaction related thereto;

• general market conditions, including fluctuations in commodity prices and continuing or worsening inflation and related changes in monetary policy;

• our operating and financial performance;

• the number of identified drilling locations and our reserves estimates;

• quarterly variations in the rate of growth of our financial indicators, such as net income per share, net income and revenues, capital expenditures, production and unit costs;

• the public reaction to our press releases (including press releases relating to this offering), our other public announcements and our filings with the SEC;

• strategic actions by our competitors;

• changes in revenue or earnings estimates, or changes in recommendations or withdrawal of research coverage, by equity research analysts;

• speculation in the press or investment community;

• the failure of research analysts to cover our Class A common stock;

• sales of our Class A common stock by us or other stockholders or the perception that such sales may occur;

• changes in accounting principles, policies, guidance, interpretations or standards;

• additions or departures of key management personnel;

• actions by our stockholders, including the Concurrent OpCo Unit Purchase;

• domestic and international economic, geopolitical, legal and regulatory factors unrelated to our performance;

S-16

• general economic and political conditions, such as the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, recessions, interest rates, local and national elections, fuel prices, international currency fluctuations, corruption, political instability and acts of war or terrorism, including the armed conflict in Ukraine; and

• the realization of any risks described in this “Risk Factors” section or in the “Risk Factors” section in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, incorporated by reference herein.

These market and industry factors may materially reduce the prevailing market price of shares of Class A common stock regardless of our operating performance.

This offering is not conditioned on the closing of the Concurrent OpCo Unit Purchase, so the fully diluted ownership of our common stock may not give effect to the Concurrent OpCo Unit Purchase.

This offering is not conditioned upon the closing of the Concurrent OpCo Unit Purchase. If OpCo does not consummate the Concurrent OpCo Unit Purchase, your relative ownership percentage in us will be less than it would be if OpCo purchased such OpCo Units and we cancel a corresponding number of shares of Class C common stock.

There may be future sales or other dilution of our equity, which may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

We are not restricted from issuing additional shares of common stock, including securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for, or that represent a right to receive, common stock. Any issuance of additional shares of our common stock or convertible securities will dilute the ownership interest of our common stockholders. Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock or other equity-related securities in the public market, or the perception that these sales could occur, could depress the market price of our common stock and impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities. We cannot predict the effect that future sales of our common stock or other equity-related securities would have on the market price of our common stock.

As a result of the Colgate Merger, we issued 269.3 million shares of our Class C common stock and a corresponding number of OpCo Units, which are redeemable or exchangeable on a one-for-one basis for shares of our Class A common stock at the election of the holder for no additional consideration, to former Colgate stockholders, including the Selling Stockholders and affiliates of Pearl Energy Investments (“Pearl”). In addition, pursuant to the Earthstone Merger Agreement, we expect to issue approximately 161.2 million and 49.5 million shares of Class A common stock and Class C common stock, respectively, at the closing of the Earthstone Merger. These stockholders may decide not to hold the shares of Class A common stock or Class C common stock and OpCo Units, as applicable, and these sales (or the perception that these sales may occur) could have the effect of depressing the market price for our common stock.

In addition, pursuant to the 2022 Registration Rights Agreement (as defined below) we entered into with the Selling Stockholders, Pearl and certain other parties at the closing of the Colgate Merger, at any of such holders’ election, we are generally required, subject to certain limitations, to assist them in a secondary offering and sale of the shares of Class A common stock they hold (or may hold in the future upon the exercise of their Redemption Right, as applicable) in accordance with the 2022 Registration Rights Agreement. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of August 21, 2023 and effective as of the closing date of the Earthstone Merger (the “Earthstone Registration Rights Agreement”), among us and the parties listed on the signature pages thereto, at any of such holders’ election, we generally will be required, following the effective date and subject to certain limitations, to assist them in a secondary offering and sale of the shares of Class A common stock they hold (or may hold in the future upon the exercise of their Redemption Right, as applicable) in accordance with the Earthstone Registration Rights Agreement. Any such sales of shares of Class A common stock by such holders, or expectations thereof, could similarly have the effect of depressing the market price for our Class A common stock.

S-17

The declaration of dividends and any repurchases of our common stock are each within the discretion of our board of directors based upon a review of relevant considerations, and there is no guarantee that we will pay any dividends on or repurchase shares of our common stock in the future or at levels anticipated by our stockholders.

Dividends, whether fixed or variable, and stock repurchases are authorized and determined by our board of directors in its sole discretion and depend upon a number of factors, including the Company’s financial results, cash requirements and future prospects, restrictions in our debt agreements, as well as such other factors deemed relevant by our board of directors. In September 2022 at the closing of the Colgate Merger, we announced an upsized $500 million stock repurchase program, but this repurchase program may be suspended from time to time, modified, extended or discontinued by our board of directors at any time. As of June 30, 2023, approximately $441 million remained available to purchase shares under our stock repurchase program. Similarly, any dividends, whether fixed or variable, we may declare in the future will be determined by our board of directors in its sole discretion. Any elimination of, or downward revision in, our stock repurchase program or dividend policy could have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.

Risks Related to the Earthstone Merger

Purchasers of our Class A common stock in this offering will not have the right to vote on the Earthstone Merger.

Because the record date for our Special Meeting of Stockholders relating to the Earthstone Merger is September 20, 2023, purchasers of shares of Class A common stock in this offering will not have voting rights with respect to the Earthstone Merger. Pursuant to the terms of the Voting and Support Agreement the Selling Stockholders entered in connection with the Earthstone Merger, the Selling Stockholders must vote all of shares of common stock owned by them in favor of approval of the Earthstone Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Earthstone Merger Agreement. Therefore, unless a new record date for such meeting is set following the completion of this offering, purchasers of shares of Class A common stock in this offering will not have a right to vote with respect to the Earthstone Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Earthstone Merger Agreement.

The market price for our Class A common stock following the closing of the Earthstone Merger may be affected by factors different from those that historically have affected or currently affect our Class A common stock.

The Company’s financial position may differ from its financial position before the completion of the Earthstone Merger, and the results of operations of the combined company may be affected by some factors that are different from those currently affecting the results of operations of the Company. Accordingly, the market price and performance of our Class A common stock is likely to be different from the performance of our Class A common stock in the absence of the Earthstone Merger. In addition, general fluctuations in stock markets could have a material adverse effect on the market for, or liquidity of, our Class A common stock, regardless of our actual operating performance.

Our stockholders, as of immediately prior to the Earthstone Merger, will have reduced ownership in the combined company.

Following the closing of the Earthstone Merger, based on the number of shares of common stock outstanding as of the date of the Earthstone Merger Agreement, our existing stockholders would own approximately 73% of the issued and outstanding shares of the combined company and Earthstone’s existing stockholders would own approximately 27% of the issued and outstanding shares of the combined company, in each case on a fully diluted basis. As a result, our current stockholders will have less influence on the policies of the combined company than they currently have on the policies of the Company.

S-18

We may not consummate the Earthstone Merger, and this offering is not conditioned on the consummation of the Earthstone Merger on the terms currently contemplated or at all.

We may not consummate the Earthstone Merger, which is subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. Many of the conditions to completion of the Earthstone Merger are not within either our or Earthstone’s control, and neither we nor Earthstone can predict when, or if, these conditions will be satisfied. If any of these conditions are not satisfied or waived prior to the outside date, it is possible that the Earthstone Merger may be terminated. Although we have agreed with Earthstone to use reasonable best efforts, subject to certain limitations, to promptly complete the Earthstone Merger, these and other conditions to the completion of the Earthstone Merger may fail to be satisfied. In addition, satisfying the conditions to and completion of the Earthstone Merger may take longer, and could cost more, and require additional borrowings, than we currently expect. There can be no assurance that such conditions will be satisfied or that the Earthstone Merger will be consummated on the terms currently contemplated or at all. If additional borrowings are required to consummate the Earthstone Merger, our total debt and leverage will be greater than currently anticipated, and our availability under our credit facility will be reduced by a corresponding amount.

Failure to complete the Earthstone Merger could negatively impact our stock price and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

If the Earthstone Merger is not completed for any reason, including as a result of failure to obtain all requisite regulatory approvals or if our stockholders or Earthstone’s stockholders fail to approve the applicable requisite proposals, we may be materially adversely affected and, without realizing any of the benefits of having completed the Earthstone Merger, we would be subject to a number of risks, including the following:

• we may experience negative reactions from the financial markets, including negative impacts on our stock price;

• we may experience negative reactions from our customers, distributors, suppliers, vendors, landlords, joint venture partners and other business partners;

• we will still be required to pay certain significant costs relating to the Earthstone Merger, such as legal, accounting, financial advisor and printing fees;

• we may be required to pay a termination fee as required by the Earthstone Merger Agreement;

• the Earthstone Merger Agreement places certain restrictions on our conduct pursuant to the terms thereof, which may delay or prevent us from undertaking business opportunities that, absent the Earthstone Merger Agreement, may have been pursued;

• matters relating to the Earthstone Merger (including integration planning) require substantial commitments of time and resources by our management, which may have resulted in the distraction of our management from ongoing business operations and pursuing other opportunities that could have been beneficial to us; and

• litigation related to any failure to complete the Earthstone Merger or related to any enforcement proceeding commenced against the Company or OpCo to perform their respective obligations pursuant to the Earthstone Merger Agreement.

If the Earthstone Merger is not completed, the risks described above may materialize and they may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows, financial position and stock price.

The combined company following the Earthstone Merger may be unable to integrate the business of the Company and Earthstone successfully or realize the anticipated benefits of the Earthstone Merger.

The Earthstone Merger involves the combination of two companies that currently operate as independent public companies. The combination of two independent businesses is complex, costly and time consuming, and

S-19

we will be required to devote significant management attention and resources to integrating the business practices and operations of Earthstone into the Company. Potential difficulties that we may encounter as part of the integration process include the following:

• the inability to successfully combine the business of the Company and Earthstone in a manner that permits the combined company to achieve, on a timely basis, or at all, the enhanced revenue opportunities and cost savings and other benefits anticipated to result from the Earthstone Merger;

• complexities associated with managing the combined businesses, including difficulty addressing possible differences in operational philosophies and the challenge of integrating complex systems, technology, networks and other assets of each of the companies in a seamless manner that minimizes any adverse impact on customers, suppliers, employees and other constituencies;

• the assumption of contractual obligations with less favorable or more restrictive terms; and

• potential unknown liabilities and unforeseen increased expenses or delays associated with the Earthstone Merger.

In addition, the Company and Earthstone have operated and, until the completion of the Earthstone Merger, will continue to operate, independently. It is possible that the integration process could result in:

• diversion of the attention of each company’s management; and

• the disruption of, or the loss of momentum in, each company’s ongoing businesses or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies.

Any of these issues could adversely affect each company’s ability to maintain relationships with customers, suppliers, employees and other constituencies or achieve the anticipated benefits of the Earthstone Merger or could reduce each company’s earnings or otherwise adversely affect the business and financial results of the combined company following the Earthstone Merger.

The unaudited pro forma combined financial statements, the summary pro forma combined proved reserves and the unaudited prospective operating information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, or otherwise disclosed by us, are based on a number of preliminary estimates and assumptions and the actual results of operations, cash flows and financial position of the combined company after the Earthstone Merger may differ materially.

The unaudited pro forma information, the summary pro forma combined proved reserves and the unaudited prospective operating information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, or otherwise disclosed by us, is presented for illustrative purposes only, has been prepared based on available information and certain assumptions and estimates that we believe are reasonable, and is not necessarily indicative of what the Company’s actual financial position or results of operations would have been had the pro forma events been completed on the dates indicated. Further, the combined company’s actual results and financial position after the pro forma events occur may differ materially and adversely from the unaudited pro forma information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. The unaudited pro forma combined financial statements included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus have been prepared with the Company as the accounting acquirer under GAAP and reflect adjustments based upon preliminary estimates of the fair value of assets to be acquired and liabilities to be assumed.

The financial forecasts disclosed in connection with the announcement of the Earthstone Merger are based on various assumptions that may not be realized.

The financial estimates disclosed in connection with the announcement of the Earthstone Merger were based on assumptions of, and information available to, our management when prepared, and these estimates and assumptions are subject to uncertainties, many of which are beyond our and Earthstone’s control and may not be

S-20

realized. Many factors will be important in determining the combined company’s future results. As a result of these contingencies, actual future results may vary materially from our estimates. In view of these uncertainties, these financial estimates should not be viewed as a representation that the forecasted results will necessarily reflect actual future results.

Our financial estimates were not prepared with a view toward public disclosure, and such financial estimates were not prepared with a view toward compliance with published guidelines of any regulatory or professional body. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we do not undertake any obligation, other than as required by applicable law, to update the financial estimates to reflect events or circumstances after the date those financial estimates were prepared or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances.

The financial estimates disclosed in connection with the announcement of the Earthstone Merger have been prepared by, and are our responsibility. Moreover, neither our independent accountants, nor any other independent accountants, have compiled, examined or performed any procedures with respect to our prospective financial information previously disclosed, nor have they expressed any opinion or any other form of assurance on such information or achievability thereof, and, accordingly, such independent accountants assume no responsibility for, and disclaim any association with, our prospective financial information. The reports of such independent accountants incorporated by reference herein relate exclusively to the historical financial information of the entities named in those.

The synergies attributable to the Earthstone Merger may vary from expectations.

The combined company may fail to realize the anticipated benefits and synergies expected from the Earthstone Merger, which could adversely affect the combined company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. The success of the Earthstone Merger will depend, in significant part, on the combined company’s ability to successfully integrate the acquired business, grow the revenue of the combined company and realize the anticipated strategic benefits and synergies from the combination. We believe that the combination of the companies will provide operational and financial scale, increasing free cash flow and enhancing the combined company’s corporate rate of return. However, achieving these goals requires, among other things, realization of the targeted cost synergies expected from the Earthstone Merger. This growth and the anticipated benefits of the transaction may not be realized fully or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected. Actual operating, technological, strategic and revenue opportunities, if achieved at all, may be less significant than expected or may take longer to achieve than anticipated. If the combined company is not able to achieve these objectives and realize the anticipated benefits and synergies expected from the Earthstone Merger within the anticipated timing or at all, the combined company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.

The future results of the combined company following the Earthstone Merger will suffer if the combined company does not effectively manage its expanded operations.

Following the Earthstone Merger, the size of the business of the combined company will increase significantly. The combined company’s future success will depend, in part, upon its ability to manage this expanded business, which will pose substantial challenges for management, including challenges related to the management and monitoring of new operations and associated increased costs and complexity. The combined company may also face increased scrutiny from governmental authorities as a result of the significant increase in the size of its business. There can be no assurances that the combined company will be successful or that it will realize the expected operating efficiencies, cost savings, revenue enhancements or other benefits currently anticipated from the Earthstone Merger.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of Class A common stock being offered by any of the Selling Stockholders under this prospectus supplement. The Selling Stockholders will receive all of the net proceeds from the sale of these shares, including the net proceeds from the sale of any shares that the Selling Stockholders may sell pursuant to the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares of Class A common stock. However, pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of September 1, 2022 (the “2022 Registration Rights Agreement”), by and among the Company and the security holders listed on the signature pages thereto, we will pay the expenses, other than underwriting discounts and commissions, associated with the sale of Class A common stock by the Selling Stockholders pursuant to this prospectus supplement.

S-22

REDEMPTION OF OPCO UNITS AND CLASS C COMMON STOCK

Pursuant to the Sixth Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of OpCo (the “LLCA”), each holder of OpCo Units (an “OpCo Unit Holder”), other than the Company and its subsidiaries, holds one share of our Class C common stock for each OpCo Unit held by such OpCo Unit Holder. Pursuant to the LLCA, each OpCo Unit Holder, including the Selling Stockholders named in this prospectus supplement, has the right to redeem its OpCo Units, together with the cancellation of a corresponding number of shares of Class C common stock, for a corresponding number of shares of Class A common stock (subject to customary conversion rate adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends and reclassification and similar transactions) or, if either we or OpCo so elect, cash. Upon the redemption of such OpCo Units for shares of Class A common stock, a corresponding number of shares of Class C common stock will be cancelled.

As OpCo Unit Holders exchange their OpCo Units, and cancel their Class C common stock, for Class A common stock, our relative ownership interest in OpCo will correspondingly increase.

S-23

S-24

Anti-Takeover Provisions

Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws

Certain provisions in our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, described below, may be deemed to have an anti-takeover effect and may delay, deter, or prevent a tender offer or takeover attempt that a stockholder might consider to be in its best interests.

• Preferred Stock: We are permitted to issue, without any further vote or action by our stockholders, shares of Preferred Stock in one or more series and, with respect to each such series, to fix the number of shares constituting the series and the designation of the series, the voting powers (if any) of the shares of the series, and the preferences and relative, participating, optional and other special rights, if any, and any qualification, limitations or restrictions of the shares of such series.

• Classified Board: Our board of directors is classified into three classes: Class I, Class II and Class III, with each class serving staggered three-year terms in office. The likely effect of the classification of the board of directors is an increase in the time required for the stockholders to change the composition of the board of directors.

• Advance Notice Requirements for Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations. Our Bylaws provide advance notice procedures for stockholders seeking to bring business before our annual meeting of stockholders or to nominate candidates for election as directors at our annual meeting of stockholders and specify certain requirements regarding the form and content of a stockholder’s notice. These provisions might preclude our stockholders from bringing matters before our annual meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors at our annual meeting of stockholders if the proper procedures are not followed.

• Special Meetings: Special meetings of our stockholders may only be called by a majority vote of our board of directors, by our Chief Executive Officer or by the Chairman of our board of directors.

Delaware Anti-Takeover Statute

We are a Delaware corporation and are subject to Section 203 of the DGCL (“Section 203”). In general, Section 203 prevents us from engaging in any business combination with an “interested stockholder” (generally, a person owning 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock and any entity or person affiliated with or controlling or controlled by such entity or person) for a period of three years following the time that person becomes an interested stockholder unless:

• before that person became an interested stockholder, our board of directors approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in such person becoming an interested stockholder;

• upon completion of the transaction that resulted in that person becoming an interested stockholder, that person owned at least 85% of our voting stock outstanding at the time the transaction commenced (excluding stock owned by persons who are directors and are also officers, and by employee stock plans that do not provide employees with the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer); or

• at or subsequent to such time, the business combination is approved by our board of directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.

S-25

Under Section 203, a “business combination” includes:

• any merger or consolidation involving the corporation and the interested stockholder;

• any sale, transfer, pledge or other disposition of 10% or more of the assets of the corporation involving the interested stockholder;

• any transaction that results in the issuance or transfer by the corporation of any stock of the corporation to the interested stockholder, subject to limited exceptions;

• any transaction involving the corporation that has the effect of increasing the proportionate share of the stock of any class or series of the corporation beneficially owned by the interested stockholder; or

• the receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit of any loans, advances, guarantees, pledges or other financial benefits provided by or through the corporation.

The provisions of Section 203 do not apply to a corporation if, subject to certain requirements, the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the corporation contain a provision expressly electing not to be governed by the provisions of Section 203. Because our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws do not include any provision to “opt-out” of Section 203, the statute will apply to business combinations involving us.

S-26

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

This prospectus supplement covers the offer and sale of up to an aggregate 21,450,000 shares of our Class A common stock by the Selling Stockholders identified below.

The shares of Class A common stock offered hereby are issuable upon the redemption of the OpCo Units, together with the cancellation of a corresponding number of shares of our Class C common stock (the “Redemption Right”). Such shares of Class C common stock and OpCo Units were acquired by the Selling Stockholders in connection with the completion of the Colgate Merger. Any issuance of the Class A common stock to the Selling Stockholders in connection with exercise of the Redemption Right will be, and the initial issuance of the Class C common stock (and related OpCo Units) to the Selling Stockholders was, exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

Beneficial ownership has been determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC. These rules generally attribute beneficial ownership of securities to persons who possess sole or shared voting power or investment power with respect to such securities. Except as otherwise indicated, all persons listed below have sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares beneficially owned by them, subject to applicable community property laws. The information does not necessarily indicate beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Shares of common stock subject to currently exercisable and convertible securities currently convertible, or exercisable or convertible within 60 days after the date of this prospectus supplement, are deemed outstanding for purposes of computing the percentage beneficially owned by the person or entity holding such securities but are not deemed outstanding for purposes of computing the percentage beneficially owned by any other person or entity.

The following table sets forth information as of September 15, 2023 provided by each Selling Stockholder on or prior to such date regarding the beneficial ownership of common stock by the Selling Stockholders, the number of shares of our Class A common stock offered hereby by the Selling Stockholders and information with respect to shares to be beneficially owned by the Selling Stockholders after completion of this offering and the Concurrent OpCo Unit Purchase. The number of shares of common stock outstanding and percentages of beneficial ownership provided in the table below are based on the beneficial ownership as of September 15, 2023 and are based on 325,048,293 shares of our Class A common stock and 243,075,559 shares of our Class C common stock outstanding as of September 15, 2023. Information in the table below with respect to beneficial ownership has been furnished by the Selling Stockholders. We have not sought to verify the information provided by the Selling Stockholders.

(2) Represents the percentage of voting power of our Class A common stock and Class C common stock voting together as a single class. Each share of Class C common stock has no economic rights but entitles the holder thereof to one vote for each OpCo Unit held by such holder. Accordingly, the holders of our Class C common stock collectively have a number of votes in the Company equal to the number of OpCo Units that they hold.

(3) Includes shares of our Class C common stock owned by the Selling Stockholders that, subject to the terms of the LLCA, are, together with a corresponding number of OpCo Units, redeemable for shares of Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis, subject to equitable adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends and reclassifications.

(4) Represents the amounts of shares that will be held by the Selling Stockholders after completion of this offering based on the assumptions that no other shares of our common stock will be acquired prior to completion of this offering by the Selling Stockholders. The Selling Stockholders may sell all, some or none of the shares offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement and may sell other shares of our common stock that it may own pursuant to another registration statement under the Securities Act or sell some or all of its shares pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including under Rule 144 promulgated thereunder or any successor rule. To our knowledge, there are currently no agreements, arrangements or understandings with respect to the sale of any of the shares that may be held by the Selling Stockholders after completion of this offering or otherwise. The Concurrent OpCo Unit Purchase is conditioned on the consummation of this offering, but this offering is not conditioned on the consummation of the Concurrent OpCo Unit Purchase. See “Summary—Recent Developments—Concurrent OpCo Unit Purchase.”

Earthstone Voting and Support Agreement

On August 21, 2023, in connection with the execution of the Earthstone Merger Agreement, we entered into a Voting and Support Agreement with Earthstone and the Selling Stockholders, pursuant to which and subject to the terms and conditions thereof, such Selling Stockholders agreed to vote all of the shares of common stock beneficially owned by such Selling Stockholders in favor of the approval of, among other things, the Earthstone Merger. Because the record date for our Special Meeting of Stockholders relating to the Earthstone Merger is September 20, 2023, purchasers of shares of Class A common stock in this offering will not have voting rights with respect to the Earthstone Merger.

Colgate Business Combination Agreement

On September 1, 2022, we consummated the Colgate Merger of OpCo with and into Colgate, with OpCo continuing as the surviving entity in the Colgate Merger and a subsidiary of the Company. In connection with the completion of the Merger, the previous holder of all of the membership interests in Colgate received 269,300,000 shares of Class C common stock, 269,300,000 OpCo Units and $525 million in cash consideration in exchange for such membership interests. Immediately following the Colgate Merger, OpCo changed its name to Permian Resources Operating, LLC, and we changed our name to Permian Resources Corporation. Following the closing of the Colgate Merger, the Colgate unitholder distributed the merger consideration to its equity holders, including the Selling Stockholders, who collectively owned in the aggregate 100% of the outstanding shares of Class C common stock, representing approximately 48% of the total outstanding shares of common stock taken together, and approximately 48% of the outstanding OpCo Units at such time.

OpCo LLC Agreement

Pursuant to the LLCA, each OpCo Unit Holder holds one share of our Class C common stock for each OpCo Unit held by such OpCo Unit Holder. Pursuant to the LLCA, each OpCo Unit Holder, including the Selling Stockholders named in this prospectus supplement, has the right to redeem its OpCo Units, together with the cancellation of a corresponding number of shares of Class C common stock, for an equivalent number of shares of Class A common stock (subject to customary conversion rate adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends and reclassification and similar transactions) or, if either we or OpCo so elect, cash. Upon the redemption of such OpCo Units for shares of Class A common stock, a corresponding number of shares of Class C common stock will be cancelled.

As OpCo Unit Holders exchange their OpCo Units, and cancel their Class C common stock, for Class A common stock, our relative ownership interest in OpCo will correspondingly increase.

Earthstone Registration Rights Agreement

On August 21, 2023, we entered into the Earthstone Registration Rights Agreement. The Earthstone Registration Rights Agreement requires the Company to register for resale (i) shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the redemption or exchange of the OpCo Units, and cancellation of a corresponding number of shares of Class C common stock, in accordance with the LLCA, (ii) any outstanding shares of Class A common stock or any other equity security (including the shares of Class A common stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of any other equity security) of the Company held by a holder thereof as of the effective time of the Earthstone Merger, and (iii) any other equity security of the Company issued or issuable with respect to any such share of Class A common stock by way of stock dividend or stock split or in connection with a combination of shares, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or reorganization. The holders party to the Earthstone Registration Rights Agreement also received certain “piggyback” registration rights to participate in underwritten offerings of the Company, subject to customary exceptions, and rights to demand certain underwritten offerings. The Earthstone Registration Rights Agreement will become effective upon the closing of the Earthstone Merger.

S-29

2022 Registration Rights Agreement

On September 1, 2022, we entered into the 2022 Registration Rights Agreement. The 2022 Registration Rights Agreement requires the Company to register for resale (i) shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the redemption or exchange of the OpCo Units and corresponding shares of Class C common stock in accordance with the LLCA, (ii) any outstanding shares of Class A common stock or any other equity security (including the shares of Class A common stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of any other equity security) of the Company held by a holder thereof as of the effective time of the Merger, and (iii) any other equity security of the Company issued or issuable with respect to any such share of Class A common stock by way of stock dividend or stock split or in connection with a combination of shares, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or reorganization. The holders party to the 2022 Registration Rights Agreement also received certain “piggyback” registration rights to participate in underwritten offerings of the Company, subject to customary exceptions, and rights to demand certain underwritten offerings.

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS FOR NON-U.S. HOLDERS

The following is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax considerations related to the purchase, ownership and disposition of our common stock by a non-U.S. holder (as defined below) that holds our common stock as a “capital asset” within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) (generally, property held for investment). This summary is based on the provisions of the Code, U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, administrative rulings and judicial decisions, all as in effect on the date hereof, and all of which are subject to change or differing interpretations, possibly with retroactive effect. We cannot assure you that a change in law will not significantly alter the tax considerations that we describe in this summary. We have not sought any ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) with respect to the statements made and the positions and conclusions described in the following summary, and there can be no assurance that the IRS or a court will agree with such statements, positions and conclusions.

This summary does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to non-U.S. holders in light of their personal circumstances. In addition, this summary does not address the impact of the Medicare surtax on certain net investment income, U.S. federal estate or gift tax laws, any U.S. state or local or non-U.S. tax laws or any tax treaties. This summary also does not address all U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to particular non-U.S. holders in light of their personal circumstances or that may be relevant to certain categories of investors that may be subject to special rules, such as:

• banks, insurance companies or other financial institutions;

• tax-exempt or governmental organizations;

• tax-qualified retirement plans;

• “qualified foreign pension funds” as defined in Section 897(l)(2) of the Code (or any entities all of the interests of which are held by a qualified foreign pension fund);

• dealers in securities or foreign currencies;

• persons whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar;

• traders in securities that use the mark-to-market method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes;

• “controlled foreign corporations,” “passive foreign investment companies,” and corporations that accumulate earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax;

• entities or arrangements treated as partnerships or pass-through entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes or holders of interests therein;

• persons deemed to sell our common stock under the constructive sale provisions of the Code;

• persons that acquired our common stock through the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation or through a tax-qualified retirement plan;

• persons that hold our common stock as part of a straddle, appreciated financial position, synthetic security, hedge, conversion transaction or other integrated investment or risk reduction transaction; and

• certain former citizens or long-term residents of the United States.

PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD CONSULT WITH THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS WITH RESPECT TO THE APPLICATION OF THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX LAWS (INCLUDING ANY POTENTIAL FUTURE CHANGES THERETO) TO THEIR PARTICULAR SITUATION, AS WELL AS ANY TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF OUR COMMON STOCK ARISING UNDER ANY OTHER TAX LAWS, INCLUDING U.S. FEDERAL ESTATE OR GIFT TAX LAWS OR UNDER THE LAWS OF ANY U.S. STATE OR LOCAL OR NON-U.S. TAXING JURISDICTION, OR UNDER ANY APPLICABLE INCOME TAX TREATY.

S-31

Non-U.S. Holder Defined

For purposes of this discussion, a “non-U.S. holder” is a beneficial owner of our common stock that is not for U.S. federal income tax purposes a partnership or any of the following:

• an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

• a corporation (or other entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

• an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or

• a trust (i) the administration of which is subject to the primary supervision of a U.S. court and which has one or more “United States persons” (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) who have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (ii) which has made a valid election under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a United States person.

If a partnership (including an entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holds our common stock, the tax treatment of a partner in the partnership generally will depend upon the status of the partner, the activities of the partnership and certain determinations made at the partner level. Accordingly, we urge partners in partnerships (including entities or arrangements treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes) considering the purchase of our common stock to consult with their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax considerations of the purchase, ownership and disposition of our common stock by such partnership.

Distributions

Distributions of cash or other property on our common stock, if any, will constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. To the extent those distributions exceed our current and accumulated earnings and profits, the distributions will be treated as a non-taxable return of capital to the extent of the non-U.S. holder’s tax basis in our common stock and thereafter as capital gain from the sale or exchange of such common stock. See “—Gain on Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of Common Stock.” Subject to the withholding requirements under FATCA (as defined below) and with respect to effectively connected dividends, each of which is discussed below, any distribution made to a non-U.S. holder on our common stock generally will be subject to U.S. withholding tax at a rate of 30% of the gross amount of the distribution unless an applicable income tax treaty provides for a lower rate. To receive the benefit of a reduced treaty rate, a non-U.S. holder must provide the applicable withholding agent with an IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or other applicable or successor form) certifying qualification for the reduced rate.

Dividends paid to a non-U.S. holder that are effectively connected with a trade or business conducted by the non-U.S. holder in the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, are treated as attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by the non-U.S. holder in the United States) generally will be taxed on a net income basis at the rates and in the manner generally applicable to United States persons. Such effectively connected dividends will not be subject to U.S. withholding tax if the non-U.S. holder satisfies certain certification requirements by providing the applicable withholding agent with a properly executed IRS Form W-8ECI certifying eligibility for exemption. If the non-U.S. holder is a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, it may also be subject to a branch profits tax (at a 30% rate or such lower rate as specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on its effectively connected earnings and profits (as adjusted for certain items), which will include effectively connected dividends.

S-32

Gain on Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of Common Stock

Subject to the discussion below under “—Backup Withholding and Information Reporting,” a non-U.S. holder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax on any gain realized upon the sale or other taxable disposition of our common stock unless:

• the non-U.S. holder is an individual who is present in the United States for a period or periods aggregating 183 days or more during the calendar year in which the sale or disposition occurs and certain other conditions are met;

• the gain is effectively connected with a trade or business conducted by the non-U.S. holder in the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by the non-U.S. holder in the United States); or

• our common stock constitutes a United States real property interest by reason of our status as a United States real property holding corporation (“USRPHC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes and as a result such gain is treated as effectively connected with a trade or business conducted by the non-U.S. holder in the United States.

A non-U.S. holder described in the first bullet point above will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate as specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on the amount of such gain, which generally may be offset by U.S. source capital losses provided the non-U.S. holder has timely filed U.S. federal income tax returns with respect to such losses.

A non-U.S. holder whose gain is described in the second bullet point above or, subject to the exceptions described in the next paragraph, the third bullet point above, generally will be taxed on a net income basis at the rates and in the manner generally applicable to United States persons. If the non-U.S. holder is a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes whose gain is described in the second bullet point above, then such gain would also be included in its effectively connected earnings and profits (as adjusted for certain items), which may be subject to a branch profits tax (at a 30% rate or such lower rate as specified by an applicable income tax treaty).

Generally, a corporation is a USRPHC if the fair market value of its United States real property interests equals or exceeds 50% of the sum of the fair market value of its worldwide real property interests and its other assets used or held for use in a trade or business. We believe that we currently are, and expect to remain for the foreseeable future, a USRPHC for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, as long as our common stock continues to be “regularly traded on an established securities market” (within the meaning of the U.S. Treasury regulations), only a non-U.S. holder that actually or constructively owns, or owned at any time during the shorter of the five-year period ending on the date of the disposition or the non-U.S. holder’s holding period for the common stock, more than 5% of our common stock will be treated as disposing of a United States real property interest and will be taxable on gain realized on the disposition of our common stock as a result of our status as a USRPHC. If our common stock were not considered to be regularly traded on an established securities market, each non-U.S. holder (regardless of the percentage of stock owned) would be treated as disposing of a United States real property interest and would be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a taxable disposition of our common stock (as described in the preceding paragraph), and a 15% withholding tax would apply to the gross proceeds from such disposition.

Non-U.S. holders should consult with their own tax advisors with respect to the application of the foregoing rules to their ownership and disposition of our common stock, including regarding potentially applicable income tax treaties that may provide for different rules.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

Any dividends paid to a non-U.S. holder must be reported annually to the IRS and to the non-U.S. holder. Copies of these information returns may be made available to the tax authorities in the country in which the

S-33

non-U.S. holder resides or is established. Payments of dividends to a non-U.S. holder generally will not be subject to backup withholding if the non-U.S. holder establishes an exemption by properly certifying its non-U.S. status on an IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or other applicable or successor form).

Payments of the proceeds from a sale or other disposition by a non-U.S. holder of our common stock effected by or through a U.S. office of a broker generally will be subject to information reporting and backup withholding (at the applicable rate) unless the non-U.S. holder establishes an exemption by properly certifying its non-U.S. status on an IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or other applicable or successor form) and certain other conditions are met. Information reporting and backup withholding generally will not apply to any payment of the proceeds from a sale or other disposition of our common stock effected outside the United States by a non-U.S. office of a broker. However, unless such broker has documentary evidence in its records that the non-U.S. holder is not a United States person and certain other conditions are met, or the non-U.S. holder otherwise establishes an exemption, information reporting will apply to a payment of the proceeds of the disposition of our common stock effected outside the United States by such a broker if it has certain relationships within the United States.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the U.S. federal income tax liability (if any) of persons subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If backup withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Additional Withholding Requirements under FATCA

Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code, and the U.S. Treasury regulations and administrative guidance issued thereunder (“FATCA”), impose a 30% withholding tax on any dividends on our common stock and, subject to the proposed U.S. Treasury regulations discussed below, on gross proceeds from sales or other dispositions of our common stock, if paid to a “foreign financial institution” or a “non-financial foreign entity” (each as defined in the Code) (including, in some cases, when such foreign financial institution or non-financial foreign entity is acting as an intermediary), unless (i) in the case of a foreign financial institution, such institution enters into an agreement with the U.S. government to withhold on certain payments and to collect and provide to the U.S. tax authorities substantial information regarding U.S. account holders of such institution (which includes certain equity and debt holders of such institution, as well as certain account holders that are non-U.S. entities with U.S. owners), (ii) in the case of a non-financial foreign entity, such entity certifies that it does not have any “substantial United States owners” (as defined in the Code) or provides the applicable withholding agent with a certification identifying the direct and indirect substantial United States owners of the entity (in either case, generally on an IRS Form W-8BEN-E), or (iii) the foreign financial institution or non-financial foreign entity otherwise qualifies for an exemption from these rules and provides appropriate documentation (such as an IRS Form W-8BEN-E). Foreign financial institutions located in jurisdictions that have an intergovernmental agreement with the United States governing these rules may be subject to different rules. Under certain circumstances, a holder might be eligible for refunds or credits of such taxes. While gross proceeds from a sale or other disposition of our common stock paid after January 1, 2019, would have originally been subject to withholding under FATCA, proposed U.S. Treasury regulations provide that such payments of gross proceeds do not constitute withholdable payments. Taxpayers may generally rely on these proposed U.S. Treasury regulations until they are revoked or final U.S. Treasury regulations are issued. Non-U.S. holders are encouraged to consult with their own tax advisors regarding the effects of FATCA on an investment in our common stock.

INVESTORS CONSIDERING THE PURCHASE OF OUR COMMON STOCK SHOULD CONSULT WITH THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE APPLICATION OF THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX LAWS (INCLUDING ANY POTENTIAL FUTURE CHANGES THERETO) TO THEIR PARTICULAR SITUATIONS AND THE APPLICABILITY AND EFFECT OF ANY OTHER TAX LAWS, INCLUDING U.S. FEDERAL ESTATE AND GIFT TAX LAWS AND ANY U.S. STATE OR LOCAL OR NON-U.S. TAX LAWS, AND TAX TREATIES.

S-34

INVESTMENT IN PERMIAN RESOURCES CORPORATION BY EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

The following is a summary of certain considerations associated with the purchase and holding of our Class A common stock by employee benefit plans that are subject to Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), plans, individual retirement accounts and other arrangements that are subject to Section 4975 of the Code or employee benefit plans that are governmental plans (as defined in Section 3(32) of ERISA), certain church plans (as defined in Section 3(33) of ERISA), non-U.S. plans (as described in Section 4(b)(4) of ERISA) or other plans that are not subject to the foregoing but may be subject to provisions under any other federal, state, local, non-U.S., or other laws or regulations that are similar to such provisions of the Code or ERISA (collectively, “Similar Laws”), and entities whose underlying assets are considered to include “plan assets” of any such plan, account or arrangement (each, a “Plan”).

This summary is based on the provisions of ERISA and the Code (and related regulations and administrative and judicial interpretations) as of the date of this prospectus supplement. This summary does not purport to be complete, and no assurance can be given that future legislation, court decisions, regulations, rulings or pronouncements will not significantly modify the requirements summarized below. Any of these changes may be retroactive and may thereby apply to transactions entered into prior to the date of their enactment or release. This discussion is general in nature and is not intended to be all inclusive, nor should it be construed as investment or legal advice.

General Fiduciary Matters

ERISA and the Code impose certain duties on persons who are fiduciaries of a Plan subject to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (an “ERISA Plan”) and prohibit certain transactions involving the assets of an ERISA Plan and its fiduciaries or other interested parties. Under ERISA and the Code, any person who exercises any discretionary authority or control over the administration of an ERISA Plan or the management or disposition of the assets of an ERISA Plan, or who renders investment advice for a fee or other compensation to an ERISA Plan, is generally considered to be a fiduciary of the ERISA Plan.

In considering an investment in our Class A common stock with a portion of the assets of any Plan, a fiduciary should consider the Plan’s particular circumstances and all of the facts and circumstances of the investment and determine whether the acquisition and holding of our Class A common stock is in accordance with the documents and instruments governing the Plan and the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code, or any Similar Law relating to the fiduciary’s duties to the Plan, including, without limitation:

• whether the investment is prudent under Section 404(a)(1)(B) of ERISA and any other applicable Similar Laws;

• whether, in making the investment, the ERISA Plan will satisfy the diversification requirements of Section 404(a)(1)(C) of ERISA and any other applicable Similar Laws;

• whether the investment is permitted under the terms of the applicable documents governing the Plan;

• whether the acquisition or holding of the shares of Class A common stock will constitute a “prohibited transaction” under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (please see the discussion under “—Prohibited Transaction Issues” below); and

• whether the Plan will be considered to hold, as plan assets, (i) only shares of Class A common stock or (ii) an undivided interest in our underlying assets (please see the discussion under “—Plan Asset Issues” below).

Prohibited Transaction Issues

Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code prohibit ERISA Plans from engaging in specified transactions involving plan assets with persons or entities who are “parties in interest,” within the meaning of

S-35

ERISA, or “disqualified persons,” within the meaning of Section 4975 of the Code, unless an exemption is available. A party in interest or disqualified person who engages in a non-exempt prohibited transaction may be subject to excise taxes and other penalties and liabilities under ERISA and the Code. In addition, the fiduciary of an ERISA Plan that engages in such a non-exempt prohibited transaction may be subject to penalties and liabilities under ERISA and the Code. The purchase and/or holding of Class A common stock by an ERISA Plan with respect to which the issuer, the initial purchaser, or a guarantor is considered a party in interest or a disqualified person may constitute or result in a direct or indirect prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA and/or Section 4975 of the Code, unless the investment is acquired and is held in accordance with an applicable statutory, class or individual prohibited transaction exemption.

Because of the foregoing, Class A common stock should not be acquired or held by any person investing “plan assets” of any Plan, unless such purchase and holding will not constitute a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA and the Code or a similar violation of any applicable Similar Laws.

Plan Asset Issues

Additionally, a fiduciary of a Plan should consider whether the Plan will, by investing in us, be deemed to own an undivided interest in our assets, with the result that we would become a fiduciary of the Plan and our operations would be subject to the regulatory restrictions of ERISA, including its prohibited transaction rules, as well as the prohibited transaction rules of the Code and any other applicable Similar Laws.

The Department of Labor (the “DOL”) regulations provide guidance with respect to whether the assets of an entity in which ERISA Plans acquire equity interests would be deemed “plan assets” under some circumstances. Under these regulations, an entity’s assets generally would not be considered to be “plan assets” if, among other things:

• the equity interests acquired by ERISA Plans are “publicly offered securities” (as defined in the DOL regulations)—i.e., the equity interests are part of a class of securities that is widely held by 100 or more investors independent of the issuer and each other, are freely transferable, and are either registered under certain provisions of the federal securities laws or sold to the ERISA Plan as part of a public offering under certain conditions;

• the entity is an “operating company” (as defined in the DOL regulations)—i.e., it is primarily engaged in the production or sale of a product or service, other than the investment of capital, either directly or through a majority-owned subsidiary or subsidiaries; or

• there is no significant investment by “benefit plan investors” (as defined in the DOL regulations)—i.e., immediately after the most recent acquisition by an ERISA Plan of any equity interest in the entity, less than 25% of the total value of each class of equity interest (disregarding certain interests held by persons (other than benefit plan investors) with discretionary authority or control over the assets of the entity or who provide investment advice for a fee (direct or indirect) with respect to such assets, and any affiliates thereof) is held by ERISA Plans, IRAs and certain other Plans (but not including governmental plans, foreign plans and certain church plans), and entities whose underlying assets are deemed to include plan assets by reason of a Plan’s investment in the entity.

The foregoing discussion of issues arising for investments by employee benefit plans under ERISA, the Code and applicable Similar Laws is general in nature and is not intended to be all inclusive and is based on laws in effect on the date of this prospectus. This discussion should not be construed as legal advice. Due to the complexity of these rules and the excise taxes, penalties and liabilities that may be imposed upon persons involved in non-exempt prohibited transactions, it is particularly important that fiduciaries or other persons contemplating purchasing and/or holding our Class A common stock on behalf of, or with the assets of, any Plan should consult with their counsel regarding the potential applicability of ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code and any Similar Laws to such investment and whether an exemption would be applicable to the purchase and holding

S-36

of our Class A common stock. Purchasers of our Class A common stock have the exclusive responsibility for ensuring that their purchase and holding of our Class A common stock complies with the fiduciary responsibility rules of ERISA and does not violate the prohibited transaction rules of ERISA, the Code or applicable Similar Laws. The sale of our Class A common stock to a Plan is in no respect a representation by us or any of our affiliates or representatives that such an investment meets all relevant legal requirements with respect to investments by any such Plan or that such investment is appropriate for any such Plan.

The underwriting agreement provides that the underwriters are obligated to purchase all the shares of Class A common stock in the offering if any are purchased, other than those shares covered by the option to purchase additional shares described below. The underwriting agreement also provides that if an underwriter defaults, the purchase commitments of non-defaulting underwriters may be increased or the offering may be terminated.

The Selling Stockholders have agreed to indemnify the underwriters and certain of their controlling persons against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to contribute to payments that the underwriters may be required to make in respect of those liabilities.

The Selling Stockholders have granted the underwriters the option to purchase on a pro rata basis up to an aggregate additional 3,217,500 shares of Class A common stock, less the underwriting discounts and commissions and on the same terms and conditions set forth above within 30 days from the date of this prospectus supplement.

The underwriters propose to offer the shares of Class A common stock initially at the public offering price on the cover page of this prospectus supplement and to selling group members at that price less a selling concession of up to $0.21533 per share. After the initial offering of the shares of Class A common stock, the underwriters may change the public offering price and concession.

We will pay all expenses of the registration of the shares of Class A common stock to be sold by the Selling Stockholders pursuant to the 2022 Registration Rights Agreement, including, without limitation, SEC filing fees and expenses of compliance with state securities or “blue sky” laws and the Selling Stockholders’ expenses; provided, however, that the Selling Stockholders will pay all underwriting discounts and selling commissions and stock transfer and taxes applicable to the sale of its shares of Class A common stock and fees and disbursements of its counsel, if any.

The following table summarizes the compensation and estimated expenses we and the Selling Stockholders will pay:

Underwriting Discounts and Commissions paid by the Selling Stockholders	$	0.3589	$	0.3589	$	7,698,405.00	$	8,853,165.75

We estimate that our out-of-pocket expenses for this offering will be approximately $0.9 million. We have also agreed to reimburse the underwriters up to $10,000 for expenses related to the review of this offering by FINRA. In addition, the underwriters have also agreed to reimburse us for certain of our expenses.

Our Class A common stock is listed on the NYSE under the symbol “PR.”

We have agreed that, subject to certain exceptions, we will not take any of the following actions: (i) offer, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, pledge, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, make any short sale, lend or otherwise transfer or dispose, directly or indirectly, or file with or confidentially submit to the SEC a registration statement under the Securities Act relating to any shares of our Class A common stock, OpCo Units, shares of our Class C common stock or any securities that are substantially similar to the foregoing or any options or warrants to purchase shares of our Class A common stock, OpCo Units or shares of our Class C common stock or any securities that are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or that represent the right to receive, shares of Class A common stock, OpCo Units or shares of Class C common stock or substantially similar securities (the “Company Lock-Up Securities”), or publicly disclose the intention to undertake any of the foregoing or (ii) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Company Lock-Up Securities, whether any such transaction described in the foregoing clause (i) or (ii) is to be settled by delivery of Company Lock-Up Securities, in cash or otherwise, without the prior written consent of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and BofA Securities, Inc., for a period of 45 days after the date of this prospectus supplement.

Our officers (as such term is defined in Section 16 under the Exchange Act), directors and the Selling Stockholders have agreed that, without the prior written consent of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and BofA Securities, Inc., for a period of 45 days after the date of this prospectus supplement, subject to certain exceptions, they will not offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale or otherwise dispose of any shares of our Class A common stock, or any options or warrants to purchase any shares of our Class A common stock, or any securities convertible into, exchangeable for or that represent the right to receive shares of our Class A common stock, whether owned at the date of such agreement or thereafter acquired, owned directly by such person (including holding as a custodian) or with respect to which such person has beneficial ownership within the rules and regulations of the SEC. Such restrictions also preclude such persons from engaging in any hedging or other transaction, including any short sale or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including any put or call option) with respect to such person’s shares of Class A common stock or with respect to any security that includes, relates to or derives any significant part of its value from such shares of Class A common stock, that is designed to or which reasonably could be expected to lead to or result in a sale or disposition of such person’s shares of Class A common stock even if such shares of Class A common stock would be disposed of by someone other than such person.

In connection with the offering, the underwriters may engage in stabilizing transactions, over-allotment transactions, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids.

• Stabilizing transactions permit bids to purchase the underlying security so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum.

S-39

• Over-allotment involves sales by the underwriters of shares in excess of the number of shares the underwriters are obligated to purchase, which creates a syndicate short position. The short position may be either a covered short position or a naked short position. In a covered short position, the number of shares over-allotted by the underwriters is not greater than the number of shares that they may purchase through the option to purchase additional shares. In a naked short position, the number of shares involved is greater than the number of shares the underwriters may purchase through the option to purchase additional shares. The underwriters may close out any covered short position by either exercising their option to purchase additional shares and/or purchasing shares in the open market.

• Syndicate covering transactions involve purchases of the Class A common stock in the open market after the distribution has been completed in order to cover syndicate short positions. In determining the source of shares to close out the short position, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of shares available for purchase in the open market as compared to the price at which they may purchase shares through the option to purchase additional shares. If the underwriters sell more shares than could be covered by the option to purchase additional shares, a naked short position, the position can only be closed out by buying shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there could be downward pressure on the price of the shares in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering.

• Penalty bids permit the representatives to reclaim a selling concession from a syndicate member when the Class A common stock originally sold by the syndicate member is purchased in a stabilizing transaction or a syndicate covering transaction to cover syndicate short positions.

These stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of our Class A common stock or preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the Class A common stock. As a result, the price of our Class A common stock may be higher than the price that might otherwise exist in the open market. These transactions may be effected on the NYSE and, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time.

A prospectus in electronic format may be made available on the web sites maintained by one or more of the underwriters, or selling group members, if any, participating in this offering and one or more of the underwriters participating in this offering may distribute prospectuses electronically. The representatives may agree to allocate a number of shares to underwriters and selling group members for sale to their online brokerage account holders. Internet distributions will be allocated by the underwriters and selling group members that will make internet distributions on the same basis as other allocations.

The underwriters and their respective affiliates are full-service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include securities trading, commercial and investment banking, financial advisory, investment management, investment research, principal investment, hedging, financing and brokerage activities. Certain of the underwriters and their respective affiliates have, from time to time, performed, and may in the future perform, various financial advisory and investment banking services for us, the Selling Stockholders and our and their respective affiliates, for which they received or will receive customary fees and expenses.

In addition, in the ordinary course of their business activities, the underwriters and their affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers. These investments and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of ours, the Selling Stockholders’ or our or their respective affiliates. The underwriters and their affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.

DESCRIPTION OF COMMON STOCK

The following description of our capital stock is not complete and may not contain all the information you should consider before investing in our capital stock. This description is summarized from, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, our Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”), which has been publicly filed with the SEC. See “Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation by Reference.”

Our authorized capital stock consists of:

• 1,500,000,000 shares of common stock, consisting of (i) 1,000,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and (ii) 500,000,000 shares of Class C common stock, par value $0.0001 per share; and

• 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share.

Common Stock

Class A Common Stock

Holders of Class A common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted on by the Company’s stockholders. Holders of the Class A common stock and holders of the Class C common stock will vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of the Company’s stockholders, except as required by law. Unless specified in the Charter (including any certificate of designation of preferred stock) or the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Bylaws (as amended, amended and restated or supplemented from time to time, the “Bylaws”), or as required by applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) or applicable stock exchange rules, the affirmative vote of a majority of the Company’s shares of common stock that are voted is required to approve any such matter voted on by the Company’s stockholders. There is no cumulative voting with respect to the election of directors, with the result that the holders of more than 50% of the shares voted for the election of directors can elect all of the directors. Subject to the rights of the holders of any outstanding series of preferred stock, the holders of the Class A common stock are entitled to receive ratable dividends when, as and if declared by the board of directors out of funds legally available therefor.

In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of the Class A common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining available for distribution to them after payment of liabilities and after provision is made for each class of stock, if any, having preference over the Class A common stock. The holders of the Class A common stock have no preemptive or other subscription rights. There are no sinking fund provisions applicable to the Class A common stock.

Class C Common Stock

Holders of Class C common stock, together with holders of Class A common stock voting as a single class, have the right to vote on all matters properly submitted to a vote of the stockholders. In addition, the holders of Class C common stock, voting as a separate class, will be entitled to approve any amendment, alteration or repeal of any provision of the Charter that would alter or change the powers, preferences or relative, participating, optional or other or special rights of the Class C common stock. Holders of Class C common stock will not be entitled to any dividends from the Company and will not be entitled to receive any of the Company’s assets in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company’s affairs.

Shares of Class C common stock may be issued only to the Permitted Class C Owners (as defined in the Charter). A holder of Class C common stock may transfer shares of Class C common stock to any transferee (other than the Company) only if such holder also simultaneously transfers an equal number of such holder’s

4

units representing common membership interests in OpCo (“OpCo Common Units”) to such transferee in compliance with the Sixth Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of OpCo (the “LLCA”). The Permitted Class C Owners generally have the right to cause OpCo to redeem all or a portion of their OpCo Common Units in exchange for shares of Class A common stock or, at OpCo’s option, an equivalent amount of cash. The Company may, however, at its option, effect a direct exchange of cash or Class A common stock for such OpCo Common Units in lieu of such a redemption by OpCo. Upon the future redemption or exchange of OpCo Common Units held by a Permitted Class C Owner, a corresponding number of shares of Class C common stock held by such Permitted Class C Owner will be canceled.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Delaware Law and our Charter and Bylaws

We are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“Section 203”). Under Section 203, we would generally be prohibited from engaging in any business combination with any interested stockholder for a period of three years following the time that such stockholder became an interested stockholder unless:

• prior to this time, the board of directors of the corporation approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder;

• upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding shares owned by persons who are directors and also officers, and by employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or

• at or subsequent to such time, the business combination is approved by the board of directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.

Under Section 203, a “business combination” includes:

• any merger or consolidation involving the corporation and the interested stockholder;

• any sale, transfer, pledge or other disposition of 10% or more of the assets of the corporation involving the interested stockholder;

• any transaction that results in the issuance or transfer by the corporation of any stock of the corporation to the interested stockholder, subject to limited exceptions;

• any transaction involving the corporation that has the effect of increasing the proportionate share of the stock of any class or series of the corporation beneficially owned by the interested stockholder; or

• the receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit of any loans, advances, guarantees, pledges or other financial benefits provided by or through the corporation.

In general, Section 203 defines an interested stockholder as an entity or person beneficially owning 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation and any entity or person affiliated with or controlling or controlled by such entity or person.

Under our Charter, our board of directors is classified into three classes of directors. As a result, in most circumstances, a person can gain control of our board of directors only by successfully engaging in a proxy contest at two or more annual meetings.

Except as required by NASDAQ rules (or, following the Listing Transfer, NYSE rules), our authorized but unissued common stock and preferred stock are available for future issuances without stockholder approval

5

(including a specified future issuance) and could be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future offerings to raise additional capital, acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved common stock and preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of the Company by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.

Exclusive Forum

Our Charter provides that, unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the (i) Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be the sole and exclusive forum for (A) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the combined company, (B) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Company to the Company or its shareholders, (C) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Charter or the Bylaws or (D) any action asserting a claim against the Company that is governed by the internal affairs doctrine; and (ii) subject to the foregoing, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act, including all causes of action asserted against any defendant to such complaint. In the event the Delaware Court of Chancery lacks subject matter jurisdiction, then the sole and exclusive forum for such action or proceeding shall be the federal district court for the District of Delaware.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, this provision would not apply to claims brought to enforce a duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. To the extent that any such claims may be based upon federal law claims, Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder.

Furthermore, Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. As described above, the Charter provides that the federal district courts of the United States of America shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any action arising under the Securities Act. Accordingly, there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce this provision. This choice of forum provision may limit a shareholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with the Company or the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Company, which may discourage such lawsuits against the Company and such persons.

Special Meeting of Stockholders

Our Bylaws provide that special meetings of its stockholders may be called only by a majority vote of the Company’s board of directors, by its Chief Executive Officer or by its Chairman.

Advance Notice Requirements for Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations

Our Bylaws provide that stockholders seeking to bring business before the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders, or to nominate candidates for election as directors at its annual meeting of stockholders, must provide timely notice of their intent in writing. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice will need to be received by the company secretary at the Company’s principal executive offices not later than the close of business on the 90th day nor earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting of stockholders. Pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act, proposals seeking inclusion in the Company’s annual proxy statement must comply with the notice periods contained therein. Our Bylaws also specify certain requirements as to the form and content of a stockholders’ meeting. These provisions may preclude the Company’s stockholders from bringing matters before its annual meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors at its annual meeting of stockholders.

We expect to transfer the listing of our Class A common stock to the NYSE on or about September 12, 2022, with the Class A common stock retaining the same ticker symbol.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

The Selling Stockholders (including their donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest) identified below may offer to sell from time to time in the future up to an aggregate of 243,518,132 shares of our Class A common stock pursuant to this prospectus, subject to any appropriate adjustment as a result of any stock dividend, stock split or distribution, or in connection with a combination of shares, and any security into which such shares of Class A common stock shall have been converted or exchanged in connection with a recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, exchange, distribution or otherwise. The shares of Class A common stock are issuable upon the redemption of the Surviving Company Units, together with the cancellation of an equal number of shares of our Class C common stock (the “Redemption Right”). Such shares of Class C common stock and Surviving Company Units were acquired by the Selling Stockholders pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement.

Any issuance of the Class A common stock to the Selling Stockholders in connection with exercise of the Redemption Right will be, and the initial issuance of the Class C common stock (and related Surviving Company Units) to the Selling Stockholders was, exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. We are registering the offering by the Selling Stockholders of the shares of Class A common stock described below pursuant to the provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC. These rules generally attribute beneficial ownership of securities to persons who possess sole or shared voting power or investment power with respect to such securities. Except as otherwise indicated, all persons listed below have sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares beneficially owned by them, subject to applicable community property laws.

The following table sets forth information as of September 7, 2022 provided by each Selling Stockholder on or prior to such date regarding (i) the beneficial ownership of shares of our Class A common stock and our Class C common stock and (ii) the number of shares of our Class A common stock that may from time to time be offered or sold pursuant to this prospectus or any applicable prospectus supplement, amendment or free writing prospectus, assuming each Selling Stockholder has redeemed all Surviving Company Units, together with the cancellation of an equal number of shares of our Class C common stock, beneficially owned by it for an equivalent number of shares of our Class A common stock. The percentage of combined voting power prior to, and after, the offering is based on 288,003,831 shares of our Class A common stock and 269,300,000 shares of Class C common stock outstanding as of September 7, 2022. Information in the table below with respect to beneficial ownership has been furnished by the Selling Stockholders.

We have not sought to verify the information provided by the Selling Stockholders. The Selling Stockholders may hold or acquire at any time shares of Class A common stock in addition to those offered by this prospectus and may have acquired additional shares of Class A common stock since the date on which the information reflected herein was provided to us.

We will supplement or amend this prospectus as required to include additional Selling Stockholders upon provision of all required information to us and subject to the terms of any relevant agreement between us and the Selling Stockholders.

The Selling Stockholders are not obligated to sell any of the shares of our Class A common stock offered by this prospectus. Because the Selling Stockholders identified in the table may sell some or all of the shares of our Class A common stock owned by them that are included in this prospectus, and because there are currently no agreements, arrangements or understandings with respect to the sale of any of such shares, no estimate can be given as to the number of shares covered by this prospectus that will be held by the Selling Stockholders upon termination of this offering. In addition, subject to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Selling Stockholders may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, at any time and from time to time, shares of our Class A common stock they hold in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act after the date on

8

which they provided the information set forth on the table below. Therefore, for purposes of the following table we have assumed that the Selling Stockholders will sell all of the shares of our Class A common stock beneficially owned by them that are covered by this prospectus, but will not sell any other shares of our Class A common stock that they may currently own.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

As of the date of this prospectus, we have not been advised by the Selling Stockholders as to any plan of distribution. Distributions of the Class A common stock by the Selling Stockholders, or by their partners, pledgees, donees (including charitable organizations), transferees or other successors in interest, may from time to time be offered for sale either directly by such individual, or through underwriters, dealers or agents or on any exchange on which the Class A common stock may from time to time be traded, in the over-the-counter market, or in independently negotiated transactions or otherwise. The methods by which the Class A common stock may be sold by the Selling Stockholders include:

• sales on NASDAQ (or, following the Listing Transfer, the NYSE) or any national securities exchange or quotation service on which our Class A common stock may be listed or quoted at the time of sale;

• privately negotiated transactions;

• through one or more underwritten offerings on a firm commitment or best efforts basis;

• to or through underwriters, brokers, dealers or agents;

• exchange distributions and/or secondary distributions;

• sales in the over-the-counter market;

• “at the market” or through market makers or into an existing market for the securities;

• ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers;

• broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

• block trades (which may involve crosses) in which the broker or dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the Class A common stock as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

• purchases by a broker or dealer as principal and resale by such broker or dealer for its own account;

• settlement of short sales entered into after the date of this prospectus (including short sales “against the box”);

• through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether or not the options are listed on an options exchange;

• through the distributions of the shares by any Selling Stockholder to its general or limited partners, members, managers, affiliates, employees, directors or shareholders;

• a combination of any such methods of sale; and

• any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

The Selling Stockholders may elect to make an in-kind distribution of their shares of Class A common stock to their respective members, partners or shareholders. To the extent that such members, partners or shareholders are not affiliates of ours, such members, partners or shareholders would thereby receive freely tradeable shares of our Class A common stock pursuant to the distribution through this registration statement.

The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares of Class A common stock under Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act, in each case if available, rather than under this prospectus.

The Selling Stockholders also may transfer their shares of Class A common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

11

Such transactions may be effected by the Selling Stockholders at fixed prices, market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at varying prices determined at the time or sale or at negotiated prices. Underwriters or broker-dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts or commissions from the Selling Stockholders and may receive commissions from the purchasers of the securities for whom they may act as agent. The Selling Stockholders may agree to indemnify any underwriter, broker-dealer or agent that participates in transactions involving sales of the Class A common stock against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act. We have agreed to register the Class A common stock for sale under the Securities Act and to indemnify the Selling Stockholders and each person who participates as an underwriter in the offering of the Class A common stock against certain civil liabilities, including certain liabilities under the Securities Act.

In connection with sales of Class A common stock under this prospectus, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, who may in turn engage in short sales of the Class A common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholders also may sell shares of Class A common stock short and deliver them to close their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell them. The Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

The Selling Stockholders will act independently of us in making decisions with respect to the price, timing, manner and size of each sale of securities. Offers to purchase securities may be solicited directly by the Selling Stockholders and the sale thereof may be made by the Selling Stockholders directly to institutional investors or others. In such a case, no underwriters or agents would be involved. The Selling Stockholders may use electronic media, including the Internet, to sell offered securities directly. The Selling Stockholders may offer the securities covered by this prospectus into an existing trading market on the terms described herein or in any applicable prospectus supplement, amendment or free writing prospectus relating thereto. If the Selling Stockholders utilize a dealer in the sale of the securities in respect of which this prospectus is delivered, the Selling Stockholders may sell such securities to the dealer, as principal. The dealer may then resell such securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by the dealer at the time of resale.

The Selling Stockholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of Class A common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell shares of Class A common stock from time to time under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424 or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of Selling Stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as Selling Stockholders under this prospectus.

If the Selling Stockholders use one or more underwriters in the sale, the underwriters will acquire the securities for their own account, and they may resell these securities from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. The securities may be offered and sold to the public either through underwriting syndicates represented by one or more managing underwriters or directly by one or more of such firms. Underwriters may resell the shares to or through dealers, and those dealers may receive compensation in the form of one or more discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters and commissions from purchasers for which they may act as agents. We have not, and to our knowledge, the Selling Stockholders have not, entered into any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities offered hereby.

We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of our securities. We have also agreed to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part or, if not available, another registration statement, effective until all of the registrable securities have ceased to be registrable securities or the termination of the applicable Registration Rights Agreement has occurred.

12

There can be no assurances that the Selling Stockholders will sell, nor are the Selling Stockholders required to sell, any or all of the shares of Class A common stock offered under this prospectus or any applicable prospectus supplement, amendment or free writing prospectus.

To the extent required, this prospectus may be amended and/or supplemented from time to time to describe a specific plan of distribution. If required, we may add transferees, successors and donees by prospectus supplement in instances where the transferee, successor or donee has acquired its shares from holders named in this prospectus after the effective date of this prospectus. Transferees, successors and donees of identified Selling Stockholders may not be able to use this prospectus for resales until they are named in the Selling Stockholders table by prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment. See “Selling Stockholders.”
