ITEM 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On January 13, 2022, Range Resources Corporation (the "Company") entered into a Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement"), by and among the Company, Range Production Company, LLC, Range Resources-Appalachia, LLC, Range Resources-Louisiana, Inc., Range Resources-Midcontinent, LLC and Range Resources-Pine Mountain, Inc. (collectively, the "Subsidiary Guarantors") and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as representative of the several initial purchasers named therein (collectively, the "Initial Purchasers"), by which the Company agreed to issue and sell, and the Initial Purchasers agreed to purchase, $500 million aggregate principal amount of its 4.750% senior notes due 2030 (the "Notes") in accordance with exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") afforded by Rule 144A and Regulation S. The Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Subsidiary Guarantors.

The Company estimates that the net proceeds of the offering will be approximately $492.0 million after deducting the Initial Purchasers' discounts and estimated expenses of the offering payable by the Company. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering, together with cash on hand and borrowings under its bank credit facility, to redeem all of its outstanding 9.250% senior notes due 2026 (the "2026 Senior Notes"). The Company intends to issue a conditional notice of redemption to the holders of the 2026 Senior Notes, notifying such holders that it intends to redeem all of the outstanding 2026 Senior Notes on or about February 1, 2022 (the "Redemption Date"), conditioned upon the consummation of the offering and any other necessary financing. The redemption price for the 2026 Senior Notes is 106.938% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date.

The Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state laws.

Some of the Initial Purchasers and their affiliates have engaged in, and may in the future engage in, investment banking and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with the Company or its affiliates. They have received, or may in the future receive, customary fees and commissions for these transactions. In particular, certain of the Initial Purchasers or their affiliates may hold a portion of the 2026 Senior Notes that may be redeemed by the Company, and such Initial Purchasers or their affiliates may receive a portion of the net proceeds from the offering.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the parties, conditions to closing, indemnification rights and termination provisions. The Company has agreed with the Initial Purchasers not to offer or sell any debt securities issued or guaranteed by the Company having a term of more than one year other than the Notes for a period of 60 days after the date of the Purchase Agreement without the prior written consent of Wells Fargo Securities, LLC. The closing of the issuance and sale of the Notes is expected to occur on February 1, 2022, subject to customary closing conditions.

A copy of the Purchase Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. The description of the Purchase Agreement in this report is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the Purchase Agreement.
