**Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.**

**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) On February 21, 2023, J. Kent Wells notified Marathon Oil Corporation (the "Company") that he would not stand for re-election as a director of the Company at the 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Mr. Wells has served on the Board since 2019 and will continue to serve on the Board through the end of his term on May 24, 2023. Mr. Wells' decision not to stand for re-election was not the result of any disagreement relating to the Company's operations, policies or practices. Following the end of his term, the size of the Board will be set at eight. The Company thanks Mr. Wells for his service.

**Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.**

**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;** 

On February 24, 2023, the Company announced that it had delivered to The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., in its capacity as Trustee, PNC Capital Markets LLC, in its capacity as Senior Remarketing Agent, and U.S. Bancorp Investments, Inc., in its capacity as Co-Remarketing Agent, a Conditional Notice of Conversion of up to $200 million of bonds constituting a sub-series of the $1 billion Parish of St. John the Baptist, State of Louisiana (the "Issuer") Revenue Refunding Bonds (Marathon Oil Corporation Project) Series 2017 (the "2017 Bonds") issued by the Issuer for the benefit of the Company on December 18, 2017 and designated the sub-series 2017A-1 bonds (the "Sub-Series 2017A-1 Bonds"). The Sub-Series 2017A-1 Bonds are anticipated to be remarketed and converted to a new term rate. The Company has the right to cancel the conversion of some or all of the $200 million of Sub-Series 2017A-1 Bonds due to market conditions; however, even if the conversion is cancelled, the Sub-Series 2017A-1 Bonds will still be subject to mandatory tender and purchase on April 3, 2023.

Any future material information regarding the Sub-Series 2017A-1 Bonds or the 2017 Bonds will be available on the website of the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board via its Electronic Municipal Market Access system at www.msrb.org.

This Current Report shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
