CNX Resources Corporation Announces Final Results and Expiration of Tender Offer for its 7.250% Senior Notes due 2027

PITTSBURGH, Feb. 19, 2024 - CNX Resources Corp. (NYSE: CNX) ("CNX") today announced the final results and expiration of its previously announced cash tender offer (the "Tender Offer") to purchase any and all of the $350 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of its 7.250% Senior Notes due 2027 (the "2027 Notes"). As of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on February 16, 2024, the expiration time for the Tender Offer (the "Expiration Time"), CNX had received tenders for an aggregate principal amount of $312,227,000 of the outstanding 2027 Notes, or 89.21% of the aggregate principal amount of 2027 Notes outstanding. These amounts exclude any 2027 Notes that may be tendered pursuant to the guaranteed delivery procedures described in the Offer to Purchase and the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery (each as defined below).

The Tender Offer was made pursuant to the terms and conditions contained in the Offer to Purchase, dated February 12, 2024 (the "Offer to Purchase"), and the related notice of guaranteed delivery for the Tender Offer (the "Notice of Guaranteed Delivery").

In accordance with the terms of the Tender Offer, CNX will pay the purchase price (the "Purchase Price") for the 2027 Notes validly tendered prior to the Expiration Time or pursuant to the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery on February 23, 2024 (the "Settlement Date"). The Purchase Price to be paid for the 2027 Notes is $1,018.97 for each $1,000 principal amount of the 2027 Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the 2027 Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase from the last interest payment date up to, but not including, the Settlement Date. For avoidance of doubt, interest on the 2027 Notes will cease to accrue on the Settlement Date for all 2027 Notes accepted in the Tender Offer. All 2027 Notes purchased on the Settlement Date will subsequently be retired.

Concurrently with the commencement of the Tender Offer, CNX issued a conditional notice, pursuant to the indenture governing the 2027 Notes, to redeem (the "Redemption") all 2027 Notes not purchased in the Tender Offer, at a redemption price of 101.813% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date of March 14, 2024 (the "redemption date"). The Redemption is conditioned on the closing of CNX's contemporaneous offering of new senior notes (the "new notes offering") and its receipt of net proceeds from such offering, and there can be no assurance the Redemption will be completed. The Redemption may be terminated and the redemption notice may be rescinded in the event such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the redemption date.

CNX retained J.P. Morgan Securities LLC to serve as the Lead Dealer Manager and TD Securities (USA) LLC to serve as the Dealer Manager for the Tender Offer. Global Bondholder Services Corporation served as the tender agent and information agent for the Tender Offer.
