Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Commitment Increase and Maturity Extension Agreement
On June 26, 2026, Cheniere Energy, Inc. (“CEI”) entered into a Commitment Increase and Maturity Extension Agreement (the “CEI Agreement”) by and among CEI, as borrower (the “Borrower”), Société Générale, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”) and the lenders party thereto, with respect to the Third Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement, dated as of August 1, 2025 (as may be amended, restated, amended and restated, extended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “CEI Revolving Credit Facility”), by and among the Borrower, the lenders and issuing banks party thereto from time to time, the Administrative Agent and the other agents and arrangers party thereto from time to time. The CEI Agreement increases the aggregate commitments under the CEI Revolving Credit Facility by $500 million to $1.75 billion and extends the maturity date thereof by one year, from August 1, 2030 to August 1, 2031. All other terms and conditions of the CEI Revolving Credit Facility remain unchanged and in full force and effect.
CCH Revolving Credit Agreement and Related Finance Documents
On June 26, 2026, Cheniere Corpus Christi Holdings, LLC (“CCH”), Cheniere Corpus Christi Pipeline, L.P. (“CCP”), Corpus Christi Pipeline GP, LLC (“CCP GP”) and Corpus Christi Liquefaction, LLC (“CCL”) (CCP, CCP GP and CCL, collectively, the “Guarantors” and, CCH and the Guarantors, collectively, the “Loan Parties”), each indirectly wholly owned by CEI, entered into the Revolving Credit Agreement (the “CCH Revolving Credit Agreement”) with the lenders party thereto from time to time, the issuing banks party thereto from time to time, the swing line lenders party thereto from time to time, The Bank of Nova Scotia, as revolving facility agent (the “CCH Revolving Facility Agent”) and, solely for purposes of Section 3.07, Société Générale, as Security Trustee. The CCH Revolving Credit Agreement amends and restates CCH’s existing working capital facility agreement to decrease the total committed amount under the CCH Revolving Credit Agreement by $500 million to $1.0 billion. The CCH Revolving Credit Agreement is intended to be used for loans (“Revolving Loans”) to, and the issuance of letters of credit (“Letters of Credit”) on behalf of, CCH, for general corporate purposes related to the operation of CCH’s Corpus Christi natural gas liquefaction facilities and Corpus Christi natural gas pipeline and related facilities near Corpus Christi, Texas, including to refinance outstanding loans or letters of credit under the existing working capital facility agreement. The entire amount of the CCH Revolving Credit Agreement will be available for the issuance of Letters of Credit.
The Loan Parties operate as legal entities separate and distinct from CEI and its other affiliates, and with capital structures independent from CEI and its other affiliates.
Conditions Precedent to Disbursements, Advances and Issuances of Letters of Credit
Advances and issuances of letters of credit under the CCH Revolving Credit Agreement are subject to customary conditions precedent, including the absence of defaults, bring-down of certain representations and warranties, and the payment of applicable fees and expenses.
Interest and Fees
Loans under the CCH Revolving Credit Agreement, including Revolving Loans and any loans deemed made in connection with a draw upon any Letters of Credit (“LC Loans” and, collectively, the “Loans”), will bear interest at a variable rate per annum equal to (a) Term SOFR, plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.75% to 1.5%, or (b) the base rate, plus an applicable margin, in each case, with the applicable margin based on the Company’s debt credit ratings then in effect. Interest on Revolving Loans is due and payable on the date such loans become due. Interest on Term SOFR Revolving Loans is due and payable at the end of each Term SOFR period and, if applicable, upon conversion to a base rate Revolving Loans, and interest on base rate Revolving Loans is due and payable at the end of each calendar quarter and, if applicable, upon conversion to Term SOFR Revolving Loans.
CCH paid certain upfront fees to the agents and lenders under the CCH Revolving Credit Agreement, together with additional transaction fees and expenses. Certain administrative fees must also be paid to the CCH Revolving Facility Agent.
The CCH Revolving Credit Agreement provides for the following fees: (i) a commitment fee on the average daily amount of the excess of the total commitment amount over the principal amount outstanding in an amount equal to an annual rate ranging from 0.06% to 0.2%, depending on CCH’s debt credit ratings; (ii) a letter of credit fee equal to an annual rate ranging from 0.75% to 1.50%, depending on CCH’s debt credit ratings; and (iii) a letter of credit fronting fee to each issuing bank that has issued fronted letters of credit in an amount equal to an annual rate of 0.175% of the undrawn portion of all letters of credit issued by such issuing bank. Each of these fees is payable quarterly in arrears. In the event that draws are made upon any letters
of credit issued under the CCH Revolving Credit Agreement (each such draw, an “LC Draw”) and CCH elects for such draw to be deemed an LC Loan, such LC Loan shall be a base rate Revolving Loan and may be converted to a Term SOFR Revolving Loan under certain conditions. LC Loans have a term of up to one year. In the event that CCH does not elect for an LC Draw to be deemed an LC Loan, CCH is required to pay the full amount of the LC Draw plus interest on such amount at a rate per annum equal to the base rate plus 2.0% on or prior to 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the business day immediately succeeding its timely receipt of notice of the LC Draw.
Repayments
The maturity date under the CCH Revolving Credit Agreement will occur on June 26, 2031 (the “Maturity Date”) unless extended. CCH may extend the Maturity Date up to two times, for periods of up to one year each, in each case with the consent of the requisite lenders. CCH may prepay the Revolving Loans at any time without premium or penalty upon two business days’ notice.
The CCH Revolving Credit Agreement also provides for mandatory repayments of loans under customary circumstances, including change of control and if it becomes unlawful for the lender to fund or maintain loans.
Covenants
The CCH Revolving Credit Agreement includes customary representations and affirmative and negative covenants for finance facilities and companies of this type and with lenders of the type participating in the financing, including, among others: covenants relating to compliance with laws; delivery of financial reports; conditions to the making of restricted payments, including distributions (subject to, among other conditions, funding of a debt service reserve account with the then-applicable reserve amount and achieving a historical debt service coverage ratio and fixed projected debt service coverage ratio of at least 1.25x); maintenance of insurance; limitations on indebtedness and liens. These covenants are subject to certain materiality qualifiers, reasonableness standards, thresholds and grace periods.
Events of Default
The CCH Revolving Credit Agreement includes customary events of default, which are subject to customary grace periods and materiality standards, including, among others:
•
nonpayment of amounts payable under the facility;
•
breach of certain representations or warranties given in connection with the facility and breach of certain covenants;
•
bankruptcy; abandonment; destruction; events of taking;
•
invalidity of security interests;
•
unsatisfied judgments (one or more final judgments in excess of $150 million in the aggregate);
•
unenforceability or termination of finance documents;
•
cross acceleration of indebtedness in excess of $100 million and cross-accelerations of CCH’s outstanding senior notes; and
•
ERISA events.
Collateral
The loans under the CCH Revolving Credit Agreement are secured under the Second Amended and Restated Common Security and Account Agreement, dated as of June 15, 2022 (as amended by the First Amendment, dated as of April 22, 2024, and as may be further amended, modified or supplemented from time to time with its terms, the “Common Security and Account Agreement”), among CCH, CCL, CCP and CCP GP (as Guarantors), the senior creditor group representatives, the Intercreditor Agent, Société Générale, as security trustee (the “Security Trustee”), and Mizuho Bank, Ltd., as account bank (the “Account Bank”), providing the secured parties with a first priority lien (subject to customary permitted encumbrances) in substantially all of the assets of the Loan Parties, including the equity interests in CCL, CCP and CCP GP. The Common Security and Account Agreement also requires CCH to establish and maintain certain deposit accounts, which are subject to the control of the Security Trustee. In addition, under the Amended and Restated Holdco Pledge Agreement, dated May 22, 2018, among Cheniere CCH HoldCo I, LLC and the Security Trustee, obligations under the CCH Revolving Credit Agreement are secured by a pledge of the limited liability company interests in CCH. Obligations under the CCH Revolving Credit Agreement are further secured by a mortgage over the real property of CCL and CCP. Modifications of the finance documents and the exercise of rights and remedies of the secured creditors are subject to customary intercreditor arrangements.
Second Amendment to Second Amended and Restated Term Loan Facility Agreement
On June 26, 2026, the Loan Parties entered into the Second Amendment to Second Amended and Restated Term Loan Facility Agreement (the “Second Amendment to CCH Term Loan Facility Agreement”) with Société Générale, as term loan facility agent (the “CCH Term Loan Facility Agent”). The Second Amendment to CCH Term Loan Facility Agreement amends CCH’s existing term loan facility agreement to, among other things, extend the availability period for disbursements of term loans to the later of the Stage 3 Completion Date and December 31, 2027, and to make related adjustment to the First Repayment Date to allow for repayments to start after the end of the adjusted Term Loan Availability Period.

agents and arrangers party thereto from time to time. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement.
B. Pursuant to Section 2.21 of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower has the right, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, to
effectuate from time to time an increase in the aggregate Commitments under the Credit Agreement by causing one or more Additional Commitment Lenders (which may include any existing Lender) to provide (or increase) a Commitment, up to a maximum
aggregate Commitment amount for all Lenders, collectively, equal to $2,500,000,000.
C. On June 16, 2026, the Borrower gave notice to
the Administrative Agent of its intention to increase the aggregate Commitments pursuant to Section 2.21 of the Credit Agreement (the “Commitment Increase”) by $500,000,000 to $1,750,000,000, which Commitment Increase is
being allocated to each Additional Commitment Lender in the amount set forth in Schedule I.
D. Pursuant to Section 2.26 of
the Credit Agreement, the Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), request, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, a one-year extension of the
Final Maturity Date then in effect, and within thirty (30) days of delivery of such notice, each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent whether or not it consents to such extension.
E. On May 19, 2026, the Borrower gave notice to the Administrative Agent requesting a one-year
extension of the Final Maturity Date from August 1, 2030 to August 1, 2031 (the “Maturity Extension”), and each Extending Lender party hereto is willing to consent to such Maturity Extension.
F. The Administrative Agent has notified the Borrower that the Extending Lenders, which together hold more than 50% of the aggregate amount of
Commitments (calculated excluding Defaulting Lenders and prior to giving effect to any permitted replacements of Lenders) have consented to the proposed Maturity Extension.
G. The Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent a certificate, dated as of the Effective Date (as defined below), signed by an
Authorized Officer of the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.26(b) of the Credit Agreement.
Accordingly, the parties hereto agree
as follows:
