| Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On November 3, 2025, Sable Offshore Corp. (the “Company” or “Sable”) and Exxon Mobil Corporation (“Exxon”) entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Senior Secured Term Loan Agreement (the “Existing Secured Term Loan” and, after the Amendment is effective, the “Senior Secured Term Loan”). The Amendment will become effective upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, including the Company receiving equity contributions in an amount of no less than $225.0 million, net of underwriting fees and other transaction costs and expenses, and other customary closing conditions. However, there is no guarantee that the Company will be able to satisfy the necessary conditions to effect the Amendment.
The Amendment, once effective, extends the maturity date of the Existing Secured Term Loan to the earlier of (i) March 31, 2027 or (ii) the date falling 90 days after first sales of Hydrocarbons (as defined in the Existing Secured Term Loan). The Amendment increases the interest rate from ten percent (10%) per annum to fifteen percent (15%) per annum, compounded annually, payable in arrears on January 1st of each year. At the Company’s election, accrued but unpaid interest may be deemed paid on each interest payment date by adding the amount of interest owed to the outstanding principal (paid-in-kind) amount under the Existing Senior Secured Term Loan. The Amendment also includes additional reporting covenants and a financial liquidity covenant that requires the Company to have not less than $25.0 million in unrestricted cash, measured at the end of each month.
