**CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS**

The information in this prospectus includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. All statements other than statements of historical facts included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, including, without limitation, statements regarding HighPeak Energy's future financial position, business strategy, budgets, projected revenues, projected costs, and plans and objectives of management for future operations are forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs of management, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, the Company's management. In addition, forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "believes," "plans," "expects," "anticipates," "forecasts," "intends," "continue," "may," "will," "could," "should," "future," "potential," "estimate" or the negative of such terms and similar expressions as they relate to the Company are intended to identify forward-looking statements which are generally not historical in nature. The forward-looking statements are based on management's current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections about the Company and the industry in which the Company operates. Although the Company believes that the expectations and assumptions reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made, they involve risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and, in many cases, beyond the Company's control. In addition, the Company may be subject to currently unforeseen risks that may have a materially adverse effect on it. Accordingly, no assurances can be given that the actual events and results will not be materially different from the anticipated results described in the forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no duty to publicly update these statements except as required by law. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company's expectations include, but are not limited to, the Company's assumptions regarding the following factors.

In addition, HighPeak Energy cautions you that forward-looking statements regarding HighPeak Energy, which are contained in this prospectus, are also subject to the following factors:

● the supply and demand for and market prices of crude oil, NGL, natural gas and other products or services, and the associated impact of our hedging policies relating thereto;

● inflation rates, the impacts of associated monetary policy responses, including increased or decreased interest rates and resulting pressures on economic growth, U.S. trade policy and the imposition of and changes to tariffs;

● political instability or armed conflict in crude oil or natural gas producing regions, such as the ongoing wars between Russia and Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas conflict;

● volatility in the political, legal and regulatory environments;

● political and regulatory uncertainties;

● our liquidity, cash flow and access to capital;

● the availability of capital resources;

● our ability to refinance or pay, when due, the principal of, interest or other amounts due in respect of our indebtedness;

● production and reserve levels;

● drilling and completion risks;

● economic and competitive conditions;

● the impacts of revising our drilling plan during the year transitioning to an increased or decreased rig count from time to time;

------

● severe weather conditions;

● epidemics or pandemics, including the effects of public health concerns and the impact of continued actions taken by governmental authorities and other third parties in response to a pandemic and their impact on commodity prices, supply and demand considerations, and storage capacity;

● the availability of goods and services and supply chain issues;

● legislative, regulatory, or policy changes;

● regulatory and related policy actions intended by federal, state and/or local governments to reduce fossil fuel use and associated carbon emissions, to drive the substitution of renewable forms of energy for crude oil and natural gas, which may over time reduce demand for crude oil, NGL and natural gas, including as a result of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 ("IRA 2022") or otherwise;

● our ability to predict and manage the effects of actions of OPEC or OPEC+ and agreements to set and maintain production levels;

● cyber-attacks;

● occurrence of property acquisitions or divestitures;

● the integration of acquisitions;

● capital markets and our ability to access such markets on attractive terms or at all, and related risks such as general credit, liquidity, market and interest-rate risks; and

● the results of our ongoing strategic alternatives process.

Should one or more of the risks or uncertainties described in this prospectus occur, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results and plans could differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Additional information concerning these and other factors that may impact the operations and projections discussed herein can be found in the section entitled "Risk Factors" herein and in HighPeak Energy's periodic filings with the SEC. HighPeak Energy's SEC Filings are available publicly on the SEC's website at *www.sec.gov*.

**ABOUT HIGHPEAK ENERGY, INC.**

HighPeak Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation, formed in October 2019, is an independent crude oil and natural gas exploration and production company that explores for, develops and produces crude oil, NGL and natural gas in the Permian Basin in West Texas, more specifically, the Midland Basin. The Company's assets are located primarily in Howard and Borden Counties, Texas, and to a lesser extent Scurry and Mitchell Counties, which lie within the northeastern part of the crude oil-rich Midland Basin. As of June 30, 2025, the assets consisted of two highly contiguous leasehold positions of approximately 154,858 gross (143,826 net) acres, approximately 68% of which were held by production, with an average working interest of 93%. Our acreage is composed of two core areas, Flat Top primarily in the northern portion of Howard County extending into southern Borden County, southwest Scurry County and northwest Mitchell County and Signal Peak in the southern portion of Howard County. We operate approximately 98% of the net acreage across the Company's assets and more than 90% of the net operated acreage provides for horizontal wells with lateral lengths of 10,000 feet or greater. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, approximately 86% and 14% of sales volumes from the assets were attributable to liquids (both crude oil and NGL) and natural gas, respectively. As of June 30, 2025, HighPeak Energy was developing its properties using one (1) drilling rig and one (1) frac crew and expects to average one to two (1-2) drilling rigs and approximately one (1) frac crew during the remainder of 2025 under our current development plan.

Our principal executive offices are located at 421 W 3rd Street, Suite 1000, Fort Worth, Texas 76102, and our telephone number is (817) 850-9200. Our website address is *www.highpeakenergy.com*. The information on our website is not part of this prospectus.

**Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company**

We are an "emerging growth company" as defined in the JOBS Act enacted in April 2012. As a result, we may take advantage of reduced reporting requirements that are otherwise applicable to public companies, including delaying auditor attestation of internal control over financial reporting, providing only two years of audited financial statements and related Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and reducing executive compensation disclosures.

We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier to occur of (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the completion of our business combination, which was August 21, 2025, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion, or (c) in which we are deemed to be a "large accelerated filer" under the rules of the SEC, which means the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the prior July 31st and (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period.

We have elected to take advantage of certain of the reduced disclosure obligations in the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part and may elect to take advantage of other reduced reporting requirements in future filings. Additionally, we are subject to an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. As a result, the information that we provide to our stockholders may be different than what you might receive from other public reporting companies in which you hold equity interests.

------

**RISK FACTORS**

An investment in our securities involves a significant degree of risk. Before you invest in our securities, you should carefully consider those risk factors included in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, any subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and any subsequently filed Current Reports on Form 8-K, each of which is incorporated herein by reference, and those risk factors that may be included in any applicable prospectus supplement, together with all of the other information included in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement and the documents we incorporate by reference, in evaluating an investment in our securities. If any of these risks were actually to occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently believe are immaterial may also significantly impair our business operations and financial condition. Please read "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements."

------

**USE OF PROCEEDS**

Unless otherwise specified in an accompanying prospectus supplement, we will use the net proceeds we receive from the sale of the securities covered by this prospectus for general corporate purposes, which may include, among other things, paying or refinancing all or a portion of our indebtedness at the time, and funding acquisitions, capital expenditures and working capital.

The actual application of the net proceeds from the sale of any particular offering of securities using this prospectus will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to such offering.

------

**DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES**

*The following description of our common stock is not complete and may not contain all the information you should consider before investing in our common stock. This description is a summary of certain provisions contained in, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the* "*A&R Charter*"*), and our amended and restated bylaws (the* "*Bylaws*"*).*

**Authorized and Outstanding Common Stock**

The A&R Charter authorizes the issuance of 600,000,000 shares of our common stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share. The outstanding shares of our common stock are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. Common stockholders of record are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted on by stockholders. As of the date of this prospectus there were 125,587,093 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding.

Please see our Registration Statement on Form 8-A12B (File No. 001-39464) filed August 19, 2020, as amended by Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-A12B/A filed on August 20, 2020, including any amendments or reports that we may file in the future for the purpose of updating such description, which is incorporated by reference herein, for a description of our common stock.

**Transfer Agent and Registrar**

The Transfer Agent for HighPeak Energy's common stock is Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company ("Continental"). HighPeak Energy has agreed to indemnify Continental in its roles as Transfer Agent, its agents and each of its stockholders, directors, officers and employees against all liabilities, including judgments, costs and reasonable counsel fees that may arise out of acts performed or omitted for its activities in that capacity, except for any liability due to any gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the indemnified person or entity.

**Certain Anti-Takeover Provisions of Delaware Law and HighPeak Energy**'**s A&R Charter and Bylaws**

HighPeak Energy is subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law ("DGCL") regulating corporate takeovers. This statute prevents certain Delaware corporations, under certain circumstances, from engaging in a "business combination" with:

● a stockholder who owns 15% or more of HighPeak Energy's outstanding voting stock (otherwise known as an "interested stockholder");

● an affiliate of an interested stockholder; or

● an associate of an interested stockholder, for three years following the date that the stockholder became an interested stockholder.

A "business combination" includes a merger or sale of more than 10% of HighPeak Energy's assets. However, the above provisions of Section 203 do not apply if:

● the board of directors of HighPeak Energy (the "Board") approves the transaction that made the stockholder an "interested stockholder," prior to the date of the transaction;

● after the completion of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, that stockholder owned at least 85% of HighPeak Energy's voting stock outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, other than statutorily excluded shares of voting common stock; or

● on or subsequent to the date of the transaction, the business combination is approved by the Board and authorized at a meeting of HighPeak Energy's stockholders, and not by written consent, by an affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock not owned by the interested stockholder.

HighPeak Energy's authorized but unissued voting common stock and preferred stock are available for future issuances without stockholder approval and could be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future offerings to raise additional capital, acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved voting common stock and preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of HighPeak Energy by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.

------

***Written Consent by Stockholders***

HighPeak Energy's A&R Charter provides that prior to the first date in which HighPeak Pure Acquisition, LLC ("Sponsor"), HighPeak Energy Partners, LP, HighPeak Energy Partners II, LP and each of their respective affiliates and certain permitted transferees (collectively, the "HighPeak Group") no longer collectively beneficially owns more than 50% of the outstanding HighPeak Energy voting securities, HighPeak Energy stockholders may take action by written consent of the holders of not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted. Before such time, any action required or permitted to be taken by HighPeak Energy's stockholders that is approved in advance by the Board may be effected without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote of stockholders, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is or are signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted. If any such action by written consent is taken then HighPeak Energy will notify its stockholders of the same.

***Special Meeting of Stockholders***

The Bylaws provide that special meetings of its stockholders may be called only by a majority vote of the entire Board, by HighPeak Energy's President or by HighPeak Energy's Chairman.

***Advance Notice Requirements for Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations***

The Bylaws provide that stockholders seeking to bring business before HighPeak Energy's annual meeting of stockholders, or to nominate candidates for election as directors at HighPeak Energy's annual meeting of stockholders, must provide timely notice of their intent in writing. To be timely, a stockholder's notice will need to be received by the Company's secretary at HighPeak Energy's principal executive offices not later than the close of business on the ninetieth (90th) day nor earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth (120th) day prior to the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting of stockholders. Pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act, proposals seeking inclusion in HighPeak Energy's Annual Proxy Statement must comply with the notice periods contained therein. The Bylaws also specify certain requirements as to the form and content of a stockholders' meeting. These provisions may preclude HighPeak Energy's stockholders from bringing matters before HighPeak Energy's annual meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors at HighPeak Energy's annual meeting of stockholders.

***Exclusive Forum***

The A&R Charter provides that a stockholder bringing a claim subject to Article 8 of the A&R Charter will be required to bring that claim in the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware, subject to the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware having personal jurisdiction over the defendants. The forum selection provision is not intended to apply to claims arising under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act. To the extent the provision could be constructed to apply to such claims, there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce such provision in connection with such claims. The A&R Charter also provides that any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of our capital stock will be deemed to have notice of, and to have consented to, the provisions of Article 8 of the A&R Charter. Stockholders will not be deemed, by operation of Article 8 of the A&R Charter alone, to have waived claims arising under the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The enforceability of similar exclusive forum provisions in other companies' certificates of incorporation has been challenged in legal proceedings, and it is possible that, in connection with one or more actions or proceedings described above, a court could rule that this provision in the A&R Charter is inapplicable or unenforceable.

If any action the subject matter of which is within the scope of the forum selection provision described in the preceding paragraph is filed in a court other than the Court of Chancery (or, if the Court of Chancery does not have jurisdiction, another state court or a federal court located within the State of Delaware) (a "Foreign Action") in the name of any stockholder, such stockholder shall be deemed to have consented to (i) the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within the State of Delaware in connection with any action brought in any such court to enforce the forum selection provision (a "Foreign Enforcement Action") and (ii) having service of process made upon such stockholder in any such Foreign Enforcement Action by service upon such stockholder's counsel in the Foreign Action as agent for such stockholder.

------

**Rule 144**

Pursuant to Rule 144, a person who has beneficially owned restricted shares of HighPeak Energy's voting common stock for at least six months would be entitled to sell their securities provided that (i) such person is not deemed to have been one of HighPeak Energy's affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale and (ii) HighPeak Energy is subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements for at least three months before the sale and has filed all required reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act during the twelve months (or such shorter period as HighPeak Energy was required to file reports) preceding the sale.

Persons who have beneficially owned restricted shares of HighPeak Energy's voting common stock for at least six months but who are HighPeak Energy's affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale, would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of:

● 1% of the total number of shares of such securities then-outstanding; or

● the average weekly reported trading volume of such securities during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale.

Sales by HighPeak Energy's affiliates under Rule 144 are also limited by manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about us.

***Restrictions on the Use of Rule 144 by Shell Companies or Former Shell Companies***

Rule 144 is not available for the resale of securities initially issued by shell companies (other than business combination related shell companies) or issuers that have been at any time previously a shell company. However, Rule 144 also includes an important exception to this prohibition if the following conditions are met:

● the issuer of the securities that was formerly a shell company has ceased to be a shell company;

● the issuer of the securities is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;

● the issuer of the securities has filed all Exchange Act reports and materials required to be filed, as applicable, during the preceding twelve months (or such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than Current Reports on Form 8-K; and

● at least one year has elapsed from the time that the issuer filed current Form 10 type information with the SEC reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company.

**Listing of Securities**

HighPeak Energy's common stock is listed for trading on the Nasdaq under the symbol "HPK."

------

**PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION**

We may sell the securities offered by this prospectus in any one or more of the following ways from time to time:

● to or through one or more underwriters, initial purchasers, brokers, or dealers;

● through agents to investors or the public;

● in short or long transactions;

● through put or call option transactions relating to our common stock;

● directly to agents or other purchasers;

● in "at the market offerings" within the meaning of Rule 415(a)(4) of the Securities Act, to or through a market maker or into an existing trading market, on an exchange or otherwise;

● though a combination of any such methods of sale; or

● through any other method described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

The applicable prospectus supplement will set forth the terms of the offering and the method of distribution and will identify any firms acting as underwriters, initial purchasers, dealers, or agents in connection with the offering, including:

● the terms of the offering;

● the names of any underwriters, dealers, or agents;

● the name or names of any managing underwriter or underwriters;

● the purchase price of the securities and the proceeds to us from the sale;

● any options (whether or not for over-allotments) under which the underwriters may purchase additional shares of common stock from us;

● any underwriting discounts, concessions, commissions, or agency fees and other items constituting compensation to underwriters, dealers, or agents;

● any delayed delivery arrangements;

● any public offering price;

● any discounts or concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid by underwriters or dealers to other dealers; or

● any securities exchange or market on which the common stock offered in the prospectus supplement may be listed.

If we use underwriters for a sale of securities, the underwriters will acquire the securities for their own account for resale to the public, either on a firm commitment basis or a best efforts basis. The underwriters may resell the securities in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. Underwriters may offer the securities to the public either through underwriting syndicates represented by one or more managing underwriters or directly by one or more firms acting as underwriters. If an underwriter or underwriters are used in the sale of securities hereunder, an underwriting agreement will be executed with the underwriter or underwriters at the time an agreement for sale is reached. Unless we inform you otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, the obligations of the underwriters to purchase the securities will be subject to certain conditions. We may change from time to time any public offering price and any discounts or concessions the underwriters allow or pay to dealers.

------

During and after an offering through underwriters, the underwriters may purchase and sell the securities in the open market. These transactions may include overallotment and stabilizing transactions and purchases to cover syndicate short positions created in connection with the offering. The underwriters may also impose a penalty bid, which means that selling concessions allowed to syndicate members or other broker-dealers for the offered securities sold for their account may be reclaimed by the syndicate if the offered securities are repurchased by the syndicate in stabilizing or covering transactions. These activities may stabilize, maintain, or otherwise affect the market price of the offered securities, which may be higher than the price that might otherwise prevail in the open market. If commenced, the underwriters may discontinue these activities at any time.

Some or all of the securities that we offer though this prospectus may be new issues of securities with no established trading market. Any underwriters to whom we sell our securities for public offering and sale may make a market in those securities, but they will not be obligated to do so and they may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. Accordingly, we cannot assure you of the liquidity of, or continued trading markets for, any securities that we offer.

If dealers are used for the sale of securities, we, or an underwriter, will sell the securities to them as principals. The dealers may then resell those securities to the public at varying prices determined by the dealers at the time of resale. We will include in the applicable prospectus supplement the names of the dealers and the terms of the transaction.

We may also sell the securities through agents designated from time to time. In the applicable prospectus supplement, we will name any agent involved in the offer or sale of the offered securities, and we will describe any commissions payable to the agent. Unless we inform you otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, any agent will agree to use its reasonable best efforts to solicit purchases for the period of its appointment.

We may sell the securities directly in transactions not involving underwriters, dealers, or agents.

We may sell the securities directly to institutional investors or others who may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act with respect to any sale of those securities. We will describe the terms of any such sales in the prospectus supplement.

Underwriters, dealers, and agents that participate in the distribution of the securities may be underwriters as defined in the applicable securities laws and any discounts or commissions they receive from us and any profit on their resale of the securities may be treated as underwriting discounts and commissions under the applicable securities laws. We will identify in the applicable prospectus supplement any underwriters, dealers, or agents and will describe their compensation. We may have agreements with the underwriters, dealers, and agents to indemnify them against specified civil liabilities, including liabilities under the applicable securities laws.

Underwriters, dealers, and agents may engage in transactions with or perform services for us in the ordinary course of their businesses for which they may receive customary fees and reimbursement of expenses.

We may use underwriters with whom we have a material relationship. We will describe the nature of such relationship in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Under the securities laws of some states, the securities offered by this prospectus may be sold in those states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers.

We may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers and the broker-dealers may engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume with us, including, without limitation, in connection with distributions of the securities by those broker-dealers. We may enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers that involve the delivery of the securities offered hereby to the broker-dealers, who may then resell or otherwise transfer those securities. We may also loan or pledge the securities offered hereby to a broker-dealer and the broker-dealer may sell the securities offered hereby so loaned or upon a default may sell or otherwise transfer the pledged securities offered hereby.

**DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE**

The SEC allows us to "incorporate by reference" the information we have filed with the SEC. This means that we can disclose important information to you without actually including the specific information in this prospectus by referring you to other documents filed separately with the SEC. The information incorporated by reference is an important part of this prospectus. Information that we later provide to the SEC, and which is deemed to be "filed" with the SEC, will automatically update information previously filed with the SEC, and may update or replace information in this prospectus and information previously filed with the SEC.

**CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS**

The information in this prospectus includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. All statements other than statements of historical facts included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, including, without limitation, statements regarding HighPeak Energy's future financial position, business strategy, budgets, projected revenues, projected costs, and plans and objectives of management for future operations are forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs of management, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, the Company's management. In addition, forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "believes," "plans," "expects," "anticipates," "forecasts," "intends," "continue," "may," "will," "could," "should," "future," "potential," "estimate" or the negative of such terms and similar expressions as they relate to the Company are intended to identify forward-looking statements which are generally not historical in nature. The forward-looking statements are based on management's current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections about the Company and the industry in which the Company operates. Although the Company believes that the expectations and assumptions reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made, they involve risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and, in many cases, beyond the Company's control. In addition, the Company may be subject to currently unforeseen risks that may have a materially adverse effect on it. Accordingly, no assurances can be given that the actual events and results will not be materially different from the anticipated results described in the forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no duty to publicly update these statements except as required by law. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company's expectations include, but are not limited to, the Company's assumptions regarding the following factors.

In addition, HighPeak Energy cautions you that forward-looking statements regarding HighPeak Energy, which are contained in this prospectus, are also subject to the following factors:

● the supply and demand for and market prices of crude oil, NGL, natural gas and other products or services, and the associated impact of our hedging policies relating thereto;

● inflation rates, the impacts of associated monetary policy responses, including increased or decreased interest rates and resulting pressures on economic growth, U.S. trade policy and the imposition of and changes to tariffs;

● political instability or armed conflict in crude oil or natural gas producing regions, such as the ongoing wars between Russia and Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas conflict;

● volatility in the political, legal and regulatory environments;

● political and regulatory uncertainties;

● our liquidity, cash flow and access to capital;

● the availability of capital resources;

● our ability to refinance or pay, when due, the principal of, interest or other amounts due in respect of our indebtedness;

● production and reserve levels;

● drilling and completion risks;

● economic and competitive conditions;

● the impacts of revising our drilling plan during the year transitioning to an increased or decreased rig count from time to time;

------

● severe weather conditions;

● epidemics or pandemics, including the effects of public health concerns and the impact of continued actions taken by governmental authorities and other third parties in response to a pandemic and their impact on commodity prices, supply and demand considerations, and storage capacity;

● the availability of goods and services and supply chain issues;

● legislative, regulatory, or policy changes;

● regulatory and related policy actions intended by federal, state and/or local governments to reduce fossil fuel use and associated carbon emissions, to drive the substitution of renewable forms of energy for crude oil and natural gas, which may over time reduce demand for crude oil, NGL and natural gas, including as a result of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 ("IRA 2022") or otherwise;

● our ability to predict and manage the effects of actions of OPEC and OPEC+ and agreements to set and maintain production levels;

● cyber-attacks;

● occurrence of property acquisitions or divestitures;

● the integration of acquisitions;

● capital markets and our ability to access such markets on attractive terms or at all, and related risks such as general credit, liquidity, market and interest-rate risks; and

● the results of our ongoing strategic alternatives process.

Should one or more of the risks or uncertainties described in this prospectus occur, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results and plans could differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Additional information concerning these and other factors that may impact the operations and projections discussed herein can be found in the section entitled "Risk Factors" herein and in HighPeak Energy's periodic filings with the SEC. HighPeak Energy's SEC Filings are available publicly on the SEC's website at *www.sec.gov*.

HighPeak Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation, formed in October 2019, is an independent crude oil and natural gas exploration and production company that explores for, develops and produces crude oil, NGL and natural gas in the Permian Basin in West Texas, more specifically, the Midland Basin. The Company's assets are located primarily in Howard and Borden Counties, Texas, and to a lesser extent Scurry and Mitchell Counties, which lie within the northeastern part of the crude oil-rich Midland Basin. As of June 30, 2025, the assets consisted of two highly contiguous leasehold positions of approximately 154,858 gross (143,826 net) acres, approximately 68% of which were held by production, with an average working interest of 93%. Our acreage is composed of two core areas, Flat Top primarily in the northern portion of Howard County extending into southern Borden County, southwest Scurry County and northwest Mitchell County and Signal Peak in the southern portion of Howard County. We operate approximately 98% of the net acreage across the Company's assets and more than 90% of the net operated acreage provides for horizontal wells with lateral lengths of 10,000 feet or greater. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, approximately 86% and 14% of sales volumes from the assets were attributable to liquids (both crude oil and NGL) and natural gas, respectively. As of June 30, 2025, HighPeak Energy was developing its properties using one (1) drilling rig and one (1) frac crew and expects to average one to two (1-2) drilling rigs and approximately one (1) frac crew during the remainder of 2025 under our current development plan.

**Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company**

We are an "emerging growth company" as defined in the JOBS Act enacted in April 2012. As a result, we may take advantage of reduced reporting requirements that are otherwise applicable to public companies, including delaying auditor attestation of internal control over financial reporting, providing only two years of audited financial statements and related Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and reducing executive compensation disclosures.

We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier to occur of (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the completion of our business combination, which will be August 21, 2025, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion, or (c) in which we are deemed to be a "large accelerated filer" under the rules of the SEC, which means the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the prior July 31st and (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period.

We have elected to take advantage of certain of the reduced disclosure obligations in the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part and may elect to take advantage of other reduced reporting requirements in future filings. Additionally, we are subject to an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. As a result, the information that we provide to our stockholders may be different than what you might receive from other public reporting companies in which you hold equity interests.

**RISK FACTORS**

An investment in our securities involves a significant degree of risk. Before you invest in our securities, you should carefully consider those risk factors included in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, any subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and any subsequently filed Current Reports on Form 8-K, each of which is incorporated herein by reference, and those risk factors that may be included in any applicable prospectus supplement, together with all of the other information included in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement and the documents we incorporate by reference, in evaluating an investment in our securities. If any of these risks were actually to occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently believe are immaterial may also significantly impair our business operations and financial condition. Please read "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements."

**USE OF PROCEEDS**

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of common stock to be offered by the selling securityholders pursuant to this prospectus. Any proceeds from the sales of common stock under this prospectus will be received by the selling securityholders. However, pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, we will pay the expenses, other than underwriting discounts and commissions and brokerage fees, associated with the sales of common stock sold by the selling securityholders pursuant to this prospectus.

**DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES**

*The following description of our common stock is not complete and may not contain all the information you should consider before investing in our common stock. This description is a summary of certain provisions contained in, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the* "*A&R Charter*"*), and our amended and restated bylaws (the* "*Bylaws*"*).*

**Authorized and Outstanding Common Stock**

The A&R Charter authorizes the issuance of 600,000,000 shares of our common stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share. The outstanding shares of our common stock are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. Common stockholders of record are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted on by stockholders. As of the date of this prospectus, there were 125,587,093 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding.

Please see our registration statement on Form 8-A12B (File No. 001-39464) filed August 19, 2020, as amended by the Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-A12B/A filed on August 20, 2020, including any amendments or reports that we may file in the future for the purpose of updating such description, which is incorporated by reference herein, for a description of our common stock.

**Transfer Agent and Registrar**

The Transfer Agent for HighPeak Energy's common stock is Continental. HighPeak Energy has agreed to indemnify Continental in its roles as Transfer Agent, its agents and each of its stockholders, directors, officers and employees against all liabilities, including judgments, costs and reasonable counsel fees that may arise out of acts performed or omitted for its activities in that capacity, except for any liability due to any gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the indemnified person or entity.

**Certain Anti-Takeover Provisions of Delaware Law and HighPeak Energy**'**s A&R Charter and Bylaws**

HighPeak Energy is subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law ("DGCL") regulating corporate takeovers. This statute prevents certain Delaware corporations, under certain circumstances, from engaging in a "business combination" with:

● a stockholder who owns 15% or more of HighPeak Energy's outstanding voting stock (otherwise known as an "interested stockholder");

● an affiliate of an interested stockholder; or

● an associate of an interested stockholder, for three years following the date that the stockholder became an interested stockholder.

A "business combination" includes a merger or sale of more than 10% of HighPeak Energy's assets. However, the above provisions of Section 203 do not apply if:

● the board of directors of HighPeak Energy (the "Board") approves the transaction that made the stockholder an "interested stockholder," prior to the date of the transaction;

● after the completion of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, that stockholder owned at least 85% of HighPeak Energy's voting stock outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, other than statutorily excluded shares of voting common stock; or

● on or subsequent to the date of the transaction, the business combination is approved by the Board and authorized at a meeting of HighPeak Energy's stockholders, and not by written consent, by an affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock not owned by the interested stockholder.

HighPeak Energy's authorized but unissued voting common stock and preferred stock are available for future issuances without stockholder approval and could be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future offerings to raise additional capital, acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved voting common stock and preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of HighPeak Energy by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.

------

*Written Consent by Stockholders*

HighPeak Energy's A&R Charter provides that prior to the first date in which Sponsor, HighPeak Energy Partners, LP, HighPeak Energy Partners II, LP, and each of their respective affiliates and certain permitted transferees (collectively, the "HighPeak Group") no longer collectively beneficially owns more than 50% of the outstanding HighPeak Energy voting securities, HighPeak Energy stockholders may take action by written consent of the holders of not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted. Before such time, any action required or permitted to be taken by HighPeak Energy's stockholders that is approved in advance by the Board may be effected without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote of stockholders, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is or are signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted. If any such action by written consent is taken then HighPeak Energy will notify its stockholders of the same.

*Special Meeting of Stockholders*

The Bylaws provide that special meetings of its stockholders may be called only by a majority vote of the entire Board, by HighPeak Energy's President or by HighPeak Energy's Chairman.

*Advance Notice Requirements for Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations*

The Bylaws provide that stockholders seeking to bring business before HighPeak Energy's annual meeting of stockholders, or to nominate candidates for election as directors at HighPeak Energy's annual meeting of stockholders, must provide timely notice of their intent in writing. To be timely, a stockholder's notice will need to be received by the Company's secretary at HighPeak Energy's principal executive offices not later than the close of business on the ninetieth (90th) day nor earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth (120th) day prior to the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting of stockholders. Pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act, proposals seeking inclusion in HighPeak Energy's Annual Proxy Statement must comply with the notice periods contained therein. The Bylaws also specify certain requirements as to the form and content of a stockholders' meeting. These provisions may preclude HighPeak Energy's stockholders from bringing matters before HighPeak Energy's annual meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors at HighPeak Energy's annual meeting of stockholders.

*Exclusive Forum*

The A&R Charter provides that a stockholder bringing a claim subject to Article 8 of the A&R Charter will be required to bring that claim in the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware, subject to the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware having personal jurisdiction over the defendants. The forum selection provision is not intended to apply to claims arising under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act. To the extent the provision could be constructed to apply to such claims, there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce such provision in connection with such claims. The A&R Charter also provides that any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of our capital stock will be deemed to have notice of, and to have consented to, the provisions of Article 8 of the A&R Charter. Stockholders will not be deemed, by operation of Article 8 of the A&R Charter alone, to have waived claims arising under the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The enforceability of similar exclusive forum provisions in other companies' certificates of incorporation has been challenged in legal proceedings, and it is possible that, in connection with one or more actions or proceedings described above, a court could rule that this provision in the A&R Charter is inapplicable or unenforceable.

If any action the subject matter of which is within the scope of the forum selection provision described in the preceding paragraph is filed in a court other than the Court of Chancery (or, if the Court of Chancery does not have jurisdiction, another state court or a federal court located within the State of Delaware) (a "Foreign Action") in the name of any stockholder, such stockholder shall be deemed to have consented to (i) the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within the State of Delaware in connection with any action brought in any such court to enforce the forum selection provision (a "Foreign Enforcement Action") and (ii) having service of process made upon such stockholder in any such Foreign Enforcement Action by service upon such stockholder's counsel in the Foreign Action as agent for such stockholder.

------

**Rule 144**

Pursuant to Rule 144, a person who has beneficially owned restricted shares of HighPeak Energy's voting common stock for at least six months would be entitled to sell their securities provided that (i) such person is not deemed to have been one of HighPeak Energy's affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale and (ii) HighPeak Energy is subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements for at least three months before the sale and has filed all required reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act during the twelve months (or such shorter period as HighPeak Energy was required to file reports) preceding the sale.

Persons who have beneficially owned restricted shares of HighPeak Energy's voting common stock for at least six months but who are HighPeak Energy's affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale, would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of:

● 1% of the total number of shares of such securities then-outstanding; or

● the average weekly reported trading volume of such securities during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale.

Sales by HighPeak Energy's affiliates under Rule 144 are also limited by manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about us.

*Restrictions on the Use of Rule 144 by Shell Companies or Former Shell Companies*

Rule 144 is not available for the resale of securities initially issued by shell companies (other than business combination related shell companies) or issuers that have been at any time previously a shell company. However, Rule 144 also includes an important exception to this prohibition if the following conditions are met:

● the issuer of the securities that was formerly a shell company has ceased to be a shell company;

● the issuer of the securities is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;

● the issuer of the securities has filed all Exchange Act reports and materials required to be filed, as applicable, during the preceding twelve months (or such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than Current Reports on Form 8-K; and

● at least one year has elapsed from the time that the issuer filed current Form 10 type information with the SEC reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company.

\* To be provided by amendment.

**Item 15.**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Indemnification of Directors and Officers.**

Section 145 of the DGCL authorizes a court to award, or a corporation's board of directors to grant, indemnity to directors and officers in terms sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification under certain circumstances for liabilities, including reimbursement for expenses incurred, arising under the Securities Act.

HighPeak Energy's A&R Charter provides for indemnification of its directors, officers, employees and other agents to the maximum extent permitted by the DGCL, and the Bylaws provide for indemnification of its directors, officers, employees and other agents to the maximum extent permitted by the DGCL. Further, the Bylaws permit HighPeak Energy to secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director or employee for any liability arising out of his or her actions regardless of whether Delaware law would permit indemnification. The Company has purchased a policy of directors' and officers' liability insurance that insures the Company's directors and officers against the cost of defense, settlement or payment of a judgement in some circumstances and insures the Company against the Company's obligations to indemnify the directors and officers.

These provisions may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against the Company's directors for breach of their fiduciary duty. These provisions also may have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and officers, even though such action, if successful, might otherwise benefit us and our stockholders. Furthermore, a stockholder's investment may be adversely affected to the extent the Company pays the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers pursuant to these indemnification provisions.

In addition, HighPeak Energy has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors and officers. These agreements require us to indemnify these individuals to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified.

------

**Item 17. Undertakings.**

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(a) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of a prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement;

(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(i), (a)(ii) and (a)(iii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

(b) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(c) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(d) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser:

(i) each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

(ii) each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5) or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii) or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.

------

(e) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i) any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(ii) any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(iii) the portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

(iv) any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, as amended, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b) (1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

------

**SIGNATURES**

Re: HighPeak Energy, Inc. Registration Statement on Form S-3

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to HighPeak Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "<u>Company</u>"), with respect to certain legal matters in connection with the preparation and filing of a registration statement on Form S-3 (as amended from time to time, the "<u>Registration Statement</u>"), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "<u>Commission</u>") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "<u>Securities Act</u>"), pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, relating to: (a) the offering, issuance and sale, from time to time, by the Company of up to $300 million of shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("<u>Common Stock</u>") (the "<u>Primary Offering</u>"); (b) the offering, issuance and sale, from time to time, by the selling securityholders identified in the Registration Statement of an aggregate of 108,764,359 shares of Common Stock (the "<u>Outstanding Secondary Shares</u>"). The securities described in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b) are collectively referred to herein as the "<u>Securities</u>."

We have also participated in the preparation of a Prospectus relating to the Securities (the "Primary Prospectus") and a Prospectus relating to the Outstanding Secondary Sharees (the "Secondary Prospectus" and, together with the Primary Prospectus, the "Prospectuses") each of which is contained in the Registration Statement to which this opinion is an exhibit.

In rendering the opinions set forth herein, we have read and examined and relied on originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of (a) the amended and restated certificate of incorporation and the amended and restated bylaws of the Company, (b) the Business Combination Agreement, dated May 4, 2020 (as subsequently amended, the "<u>Business Combination Agreement</u>"), by and among (i) Pure Acquisition Corp., (ii) the Company, (iii) Pure Acquisition Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and then a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, (iv) HighPeak Energy, LP, a Delaware limited partnership ("<u>HighPeak I</u>") and (v) HighPeak Energy II, LP, a Delaware limited partnership ("<u>HighPeak II</u> and, together with HighPeak I, the "<u>HighPeak Funds</u>"), (vii) HPK Energy, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and the general partner of HPK Energy, LP, a Delaware limited partnership, and an affiliate of HighPeak Pure Acquisition, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("<u>HighPeak Acquisition</u>") and (viii) solely for the limited purposes specified therein, HighPeak Energy Management, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, (c) the Registration Statement and (d) such other certificates, statutes and other instruments and documents that we considered necessary or appropriate for the purpose of rendering the opinions set forth below. We have also reviewed such questions of law as we have deemed necessary or appropriate. As to matters of fact relevant to the opinions expressed herein, and as to factual matters arising in connection with our examination of corporate documents, records and other documents and writings, we have relied upon certificates and other communications of corporate officers of the Company, without further investigation as to the facts set forth therein.

In our examination, we have assumed, without independent investigation (a) all information contained in all documents reviewed by us is true and correct; (b) the genuineness of the signatures on all documents that we have examined, (c) the legal capacity of all natural persons, (d) the authenticity of all documents supplied to us as originals, (e) the conformity to the authentic originals of all documents supplied to us as certified, photostatic, facsimile, electronic or otherwise reproduced copies, (f) the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents, (g) that the Registration Statement, and any amendments thereto (including post-effective amendments), will have become effective and such effectiveness shall not have been terminated or rescinded and (h) all Securities will be issued and sold, as applicable, in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws and in the manner stated in the Registration Statement and the applicable prospectus supplement to the applicable Prospectus, if any.

Based upon the foregoing and subject to the limitations, qualifications, exceptions and assumptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that the Securities have been duly authorized and:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. With respect to any shares of Common Stock issued in a Primary Offering, when both (A) the board of directors (the " <u>Board</u> ") of the Company (or a committee thereof) has taken all necessary corporate action to approve the issuance of and the terms of the offering of the shares of Common Stock and related matters and (B) certificates representing the shares of Common Stock have been duly executed, countersigned, registered, and delivered (or non-certificated shares of Common Stock shall have been properly issued) either (i) in accordance with the applicable definitive purchase, underwriting, or similar agreement approved by the Board or such officers upon payment of the consideration therefor (not less than the par value of the Common Stock) provided for therein or (ii) upon conversion or exercise of any other Security, in accordance with the terms of such Security or the instrument governing such Security providing for such conversion or exercise as approved by the Board, for the consideration approved by the Board (not less than the par value of the Common Stock), then the shares of Common Stock will be legally issued, fully paid, and nonassessable; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. the Outstanding Secondary Shares are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <sup>1</sup> (1) An indeterminate number of shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("common stock") of HighPeak Energy, Inc. (the "Registrant") is being registered as may from time to time be offered hereunder, on a primary basis, at indeterminate prices with an aggregate initial offering price not to exceed $300,000,000. (2) Includes such indeterminate amount of securities as may be issued upon exercise, conversion or exchange of, pursuant to anti-dilution adjustments, or pursuant to a stock dividend, stock split or similar transaction with respect to, securities that provide for such issuance, exercise, conversion, exchange, adjustment, stock split or similar transaction. Separate consideration may or may not be received for any of these securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <sup>2</sup> (3) The proposed maximum aggregate offering price has been calculated pursuant to Rule 457(o) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and reflects the maximum aggregate offering price of securities that may be issued. (4) Includes 79,706,576 shares of common stock acquired by the selling securityholders at the Closing of the business combination, and through related transactions and any subsequent transfers by selling securityholders. (5) Estimated solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee pursuant to Rule 457(c) of the Securities Act on the basis of the average of the high and low sale prices of our common stock on October 30, 2025, as reported on the Nasdaq Global Market (the "Nasdaq"), which date is within five business days prior to filing this registration statement. (6) The proposed maximum offering price per share of our common stock as may be offered on a secondary basis will be determined by the selling securityholders from time to time in connection with, and at the time of, the sale by the selling securityholders of such securities. (7) On December 17, 2021, the Registrant filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-261706), which became effective on January 3, 2022 (the "Prior Registration Statement") with the SEC and paid a primary offering (the "primary offering") registration fee of $27,810.00. An amount of $144,232,500 remained unsold under the Prior Registration Statement; such primary offering has been terminated and all of such securities remain unsold. Furthermore, the 108,764,359 shares of common stock registered hereunder for sale by the selling stockholder were included in the 117,064,602 shares of common stock (the "secondary unsold stock") registered pursuant to the Prior Registration Statement that were unsold. Pursuant to Rule 457(p) under the Securities Act of 1933, the filing fee of $136,959.48 due with respect to the primary offering and secondary unsold stock registered hereunder is fully offset by filing fees of $104,373.74 previously applied under the Prior Registration Statement. Pursuant to Rule 457(p) under the Securities Act, the Registrant hereby offsets the total registration fee due under this registration statement against the fees previously paid in connection with the unsold amount of securities on the Prior Registration Statement. Accordingly, a fee of $32,585.74 is being paid in connection with the filing of this Registration Statement after an offset amount of $104,373.74 is applied to this Registration Statement's registration fee.
