Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers;
Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On September 25, 2026, Texas
Pacific Land Corporation (the “Company”) entered into amendments to (i) the amended and restated employment agreement, dated
October 13, 2023, by and between the Company and Tyler Glover, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, (ii) the amended
and restated employment agreement, dated October 13, 2023, by and between the Company and Chris Steddum, the Company’s Chief Financial
Officer and (iii) the amended and restated employment agreement, dated October 13, 2023, by and between the Company and Micheal W. Dobbs,
the Company’s Senior Vice President, Secretary and General Counsel (such employment agreements collectively, the “Employment
Agreements” and such amendments collectively, the “Amendments”). The Amendments extend the expiration date in the Employment
Agreements from December 31, 2026 to December 31, 2029, with automatic one (1) year extensions unless notice not to renew is given by
either party at least 120 days prior to the end of the then-current term. All of the other terms and conditions of the Employment Agreements
remain in full force and effect.
Item 5.08 Shareholder Director Nominations.
As disclosed in the Company’s
Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on September 25, 2026
(the “Proxy Statement”), the Company intends to hold its 2027 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2027 Annual Meeting”)
on May 6, 2027. The intended date of the 2027 Annual Meeting represents a change of more than 30 calendar days from the anniversary of
the Company’s 2026 annual meeting of stockholders, which is being held on November 5, 2026. The Company will publish additional
details regarding the exact time, location and matters to be voted on at the 2027 Annual Meeting in the Company’s proxy statement
for the 2027 Annual Meeting.
In order for any stockholder
proposal to be considered for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials for the 2027 Annual Meeting pursuant to Rule 14a-8 (“Rule
14a-8”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Company must receive proper
notice at the Company’s principal executive offices not later than the close of business on November 27, 2026, which the Company
has determined to be a reasonable time before it expects to begin to print and distribute its proxy materials for the 2027 Annual Meeting.
Any such stockholder proposal submitted, including any accompanying supporting statement, must also meet the requirements set forth in
the rules and regulations of the SEC in order to be eligible for inclusion in the proxy materials for the 2027 Annual Meeting.
Since the 2027 Annual Meeting
will be held on a date that is more than 30 days before the anniversary of the Company’s 2026 annual meeting of stockholders, any
director nomination or stockholder proposal submitted outside the process of Rule 14a-8 that a stockholder intends to bring forth at the
2027 Annual Meeting will be untimely unless it is received between January 6, 2027 and February 5, 2027, in accordance with the Company’s
bylaws.

Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly
