The filing amends Item 5.02 of the Current Report on Form 8-K of Black Stone Minerals, L.P. ("BSM" or the "Partnership") filed on November 5, 2025 (the "Initial 8-K") to add the information described below. No other changes are being made to the Initial Form 8-K.

**Item 5.02.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangement of Certain Officers.**

On November 5, 2025, BSM filed the Initial 8-K announcing a leadership transition effective January 1, 2026. At the time of the Initial 8-K, the Compensation Committee (the "Compensation Committee") of the Board of Directors of the Partnership's general partner had not yet determined compensation levels for the new roles.

In accordance with instruction no. 2 of the Instructions to Item 5.02 of Form 8-K, the Partnership is filing this amendment to the Initial 8-K to disclose that, on January 1, 2026, the previously disclosed officer and director appointments were completed and that the Compensation Committee set the compensation for the relevant officers as shown in the table below. The targeted amounts shown in the short-term-incentive target ("STI Target") and long-term-incentive target ("LTI Target") columns were approved but have not yet been granted.

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Name** | **Title** | **Salary** | **STI Target** | **LTI Target** | **Total** |
| Thomas L. Carter, Jr. | Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors | $450000 | $450000 | $1600000 | $2500000 |
| Fowler T. Carter | Co-Chief Executive Officer and President | $425000 | $425000 | $2400000 | $3250000 |
| Taylor DeWalch | Co-Chief Executive Officer and President | $425000 | $425000 | $2400000 | $3250000 |
| Chris Bonner | Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, and Treasurer | $320000 | $320000 | $1280000 | $1920000 |

---

The Partnership expects that Mr. Bonner will enter into a severance agreement with Black Stone Natural Resources Management Company, in a form substantially similar to those entered into by Messrs. Fowler Carter, Taylor DeWalch, and Steve Putman. That agreement will provide for the payment of cash severance payments and benefits in the event Mr. Bonner's employment is terminated under certain circumstances, but he has not yet entered into the agreement.
