Coterra Energy Inc. ("Coterra") (NYSE: CTRA) announced today that it has priced an offering of $750 million aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes due 2035, which will carry an interest rate of 5.40% (the "2035 notes"), and $750 million aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes due 2055, which will carry an interest rate of 5.90% (the "2055 notes" and, together with the 2035 notes, the "notes"). The offering is expected to close on December 17, 2024, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

Coterra intends to use the net proceeds from the offering, together with cash on hand and certain borrowings, to fund the cash consideration component of its previously announced acquisitions of the issued and outstanding equity ownership interests of certain affiliates of Franklin Mountain Energy Holdings, LP (the "Franklin Mountain Energy Acquisition") and certain assets from Avant Natural Resources, LLC and certain of its affiliates (the "Avant Acquisition" and, together with the Franklin Mountain Energy Acquisition, the "Acquisitions") and to pay fees and expenses related to the Acquisitions.

The 2035 notes will be subject to a special mandatory redemption at a redemption price equal to 101% of the principal amount of such series of notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of special mandatory redemption (the “Special Mandatory Redemption Price”) under certain circumstances if either the Franklin Mountain Energy Acquisition or the Avant Acquisition is not consummated. Additionally, the 2055 notes will also be subject to a special mandatory redemption at the Special Mandatory Redemption Price under certain circumstances if both the Franklin Mountain Energy Acquisition and the Avant Acquisition are not consummated.
