On April 15, 2024, EQT Corporation (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “EQT”) issued a news release relating to the matter described below in Item 8.01, a copy of which is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

The information provided in this Item 7.01, including the accompanying Exhibit 99.1, shall be deemed “furnished” and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liability of such section, nor shall it be incorporated by reference in any filing made by EQT pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, regardless of the general incorporation language of such filing, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

On April 12, 2024, certain subsidiaries of EQT (such subsidiaries, the “EQT Parties”) entered into an agreement with Equinor USA Onshore Properties Inc. and their affiliates (collectively, the “Equinor Parties”) pursuant to which the EQT Parties agreed to sell an undivided 40% interest in EQT's non-operated natural gas assets in Northeast Pennsylvania to the Equinor Parties. In exchange, the EQT Parties will receive from the Equinor Parties (i) $500 million of cash, (ii) approximately 26,000 net acres in Monroe County, Ohio directly offsetting EQT-operated acreage, (iii) approximately 10,000 net acres predominantly in Lycoming County, Pennsylvania under EQT-operated wells and acreage, and (iv) the remaining 16.25% ownership interest in EQT-operated gathering systems servicing core EQT-operated acreage in Lycoming County, Pennsylvania. In addition, the parties have agreed, upon consummation of the transaction, to enter into a gas buy-back agreement with respect to the assets to be received by the EQT Parties in the transaction, whereby the Equinor Parties will purchase a specified amount of natural gas from EQT at a premium to in-basin pricing through the first quarter of 2028. The transaction is subject to customary closing adjustments, required regulatory approvals and clearances.
