#### Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On December 12, 2025, Archrock, Inc. ("we" or "us"), Archrock Partners Operating LLC, Archrock Services, L.P. ("ASLP" and, together with Archrock Partners Operating LLC, the "Borrowers" and each, a "Borrower") and certain of our subsidiaries entered into a Third Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Third Amendment") with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (in such capacity, the "Administrative Agent"), and certain financial institutions as lenders. The Third Amendment amends the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of May 16, 2023, among us, the Borrowers, certain of our subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent and certain financial institutions as lenders or issuing banks (as in effect prior to the Third Amendment, the "Existing Credit Agreement"), which governs our senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility").

The Third Amendment amends the Existing Credit Agreement to, among other things, (i) remove the 0.10% per annum credit spread adjustment that was previously included in the calculation of Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR, the Adjusted REVSOFR30 Rate and Adjusted Term SOFR (each as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) applicable to all interest periods applicable to the loans made under the Credit Facility, (ii) decrease the applicable margin for all borrowings by 0.25% per annum such that the applicable margin for borrowings varies (A) in the case of Term SOFR loans, from 1.75% to 2.50% per annum and (B) in the case of Base Rate loans, from 0.75% to 1.50% per annum (such margin determined based on a total leverage ratio pricing grid) and (iii) decrease the commitment fee payable on the daily unused amount of the Credit Facility from 0.375% per annum to 0.25% per annum when less than 50% of the Credit Facility is utilized.

The foregoing summary of the Third Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Third Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

#### Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
The description of the Third Amendment contained in Item 1.01 in this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.

#### Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
The Third Amendment has been filed to provide investors with information regarding its terms. The agreement is not intended to provide any other information about us or our business or operations. In particular, the representations, warranties, and covenants contained in the agreement were made only for purposes of such agreement and, in certain circumstances, as of specific dates, and were solely for the benefit of the parties to the agreement. The assertions embodied in any representations, warranties, and covenants contained in the agreement may be subject to qualifications with respect to knowledge and materiality different from those applicable to investors and may be qualified by information in confidential disclosure schedules not included with the exhibits. These disclosure schedules may contain information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations, warranties and covenants set forth in the agreement. Moreover, certain representations, warranties, and covenants in the agreement may have been used for the purpose of allocating risk between parties, rather than establishing matters as facts. In addition, information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties and covenants may have changed after the date of the agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in our public disclosures. Accordingly, investors should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants in the agreement as characterizations of the actual state of facts about us or our business or operations on the date hereof.

The preceding sentence is in addition to the rights of the Administrative Agent and Lenders with respect to <u>Section 2.14(e)</u> and <u>Article VII</u> and other of their respective rights under this Agreement that may be applicable as a result of any such inaccuracy referred to in such sentence.

If, notwithstanding the intention of the parties set forth in the previous sentence, this Third Amendment or the transactions contemplated hereby are deemed to constitute a novation of the obligations outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement or any Collateral securing the same, then, as collateral security for the Secured Obligations, each Loan Party hereby grants to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties a lien on and security interest in, and right of set-off against, and acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent has and shall continue to have until the Termination Date for the benefit of the Secured Parties a continuing lien on and security interest in, and right of set-off against, all right, title, and interest of such Loan Party, whether now owned or existing or hereafter created, acquired or arising, in and to all of the Collateral.

The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provisions.
