**EXPLANATORY NOTE** 

This registration statement (the "Registration Statement") of Permian Resources Corporation (the "Registrant," "we," "us" and "our") is being filed pursuant to General Instruction E to Form S-8 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), to register 33,000,000 additional shares of the Registrant's Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("Common Stock"), that may be issued pursuant to the Permian Resources Corporation 2023 Long Term Incentive Plan (as amended from time to time, the "2023 Plan"). On February 23, 2026, the Board of Directors of the Registrant approved the First Amendment to the 2023 Plan (the "First Amendment"), subject to the approval of the Registrant's stockholders. On May 19, 2026, the Registrant's stockholders approved the First Amendment. The First Amendment amends the 2023 Plan to increase the number of shares of Common Stock issuable under the 2023 Plan by 30,000,000 shares of Common Stock. This Registration Statement on Form S-8 hereby incorporates by reference the contents of the Registrant's registration statement on Form S-8 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on January 7, 2026 (Registration No. 333-292601) (the "Initial Registration Statement"). Although the Initial Registration Statement also registered shares that may be issued under the Centennial Resource Development, Inc. 2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, this Registration Statement registers only additional shares that may be issued pursuant to the 2023 Plan, and the First Amendment increased only the number of shares of Common Stock issuable under the 2023 Plan.

**Part I**

The Registrant will provide all participants in the 2023 Plan, as amended, with the document(s) containing the information required by Part I of Form S-8, as specified in Rule 428(b)(1) promulgated by the Commission under the Securities Act. In accordance with Rule 428 of the Securities Act, the Registrant has not filed such document(s) with the Commission, but such document(s) (along with the documents incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement on Form S-8 pursuant to Item 3 of Part II hereof) shall constitute a prospectus that meets the requirements of Section 10(a) of the Securities Act. The Registrant shall maintain a file of such documents in accordance with the provisions of Rule 428(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

Permian Resources Corporation

Midland, Texas 79701

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel for Permian Resources Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the Company's registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), of the offer and sale of an aggregate of up to 33,000,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Shares"), pursuant to the Company's registration statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement") to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 20, 2026, which Shares may be issued from time to time in accordance with the terms of the Permian Resources Corporation 2023 Long Term Incentive Plan (as amended from time to time, the "Plan").

In reaching the opinions set forth herein, we have examined and are familiar with originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such documents and records of the Company and such statutes, regulations and other instruments as we have deemed necessary or advisable for purposes of this opinion, including (i) the Registration Statement, (ii) certain resolutions adopted by the board of directors of the Company, (iii) the Plan, and (iv) such other certificates, instruments, and documents as we have considered necessary for purposes of this opinion. As to any facts material to our opinions, we have made no independent investigation or verification of such facts and have relied, to the extent that we deem such reliance proper, upon certificates of public officials and officers or other representatives of the Company.

We have assumed (i) the legal capacity of all natural persons, (ii) the genuineness of all signatures, (iii) the authority of all persons signing all documents submitted to us on behalf of the parties to such documents, (iv) the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, (v) the conformity to authentic original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies, (vi) that all information contained in all documents reviewed by us is true, correct and complete, and (vii) that the Shares will be issued in accordance with the terms of the Plan.

Based on the foregoing and subject to the limitations set forth herein, and having due regard for the legal considerations we deem relevant, we are of the opinion that the Shares have been duly authorized and, when the Shares are issued by the Company in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the instruments executed pursuant to the Plan, the Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

This opinion is limited in all respects to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. We express no opinion as to any other law or any matter other than as expressly set forth above, and no opinion as to any other law or matter may be inferred or implied herefrom. The opinions expressed herein are rendered as of the date hereof, and we expressly disclaim any obligation to update this letter or advise you of any change in any matter after the date hereof.

 **Offering Note** <br>

<sup>1</sup> The registration statement on Form S-8 to which this Exhibit 107.1 is attached (the "Registration Statement") registers 33,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Common Stock"), of Permian Resources Corporation, a Delaware corporation, that may be delivered with respect to awards under the Permian Resources Corporation 2023 Long Term Incentive Plan (as amended from time to time, the "Plan"), which consist of shares of Common Stock reserved and available for delivery with respect to awards under the Plan and additional shares of Common Stock that may again become available for delivery with respect to awards under the Plan pursuant to the reallocation provisions of the Plan. Pursuant to Rule 416(a) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), the Registration Statement shall be deemed to cover an indeterminate number of additional shares of Common Stock that may become issuable as a result of stock splits, stock dividends, or similar transactions pursuant to the adjustment or anti-dilution provisions of the Plan. The proposed maximum offering price per share of Common Stock and proposed maximum aggregate offering price for the shares of Common Stock covered by this Registration Statement have been estimated solely for purposes of calculating the registration fee pursuant to Rules 457(c) and 457(h) under the Securities Act based upon the average of the high and low prices of a share of Common Stock as reported on the NYSE on May 14, 2026, which was equal to $20.21.
