The Notes are being sold to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), and to certain non-US persons outside the United States in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act (the Notes Offering). The Notes Offering is expected to close on 14 July 2020, subject to customary closing conditions. Net proceeds to Rattler from the Notes Offering will be approximately US$489.5 million.

Neither Rattler’s parent, Diamondback, nor Rattler’s general partner will guarantee the Notes. In the future, each of Rattler’s restricted subsidiaries that either (1) guarantees any of its or a guarantor’s other indebtedness or (2) is a domestic restricted subsidiary and is an obligor with respect to any indebtedness under any credit facility will be required to guarantee the Notes.
The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements. Rattler is under no obligation, and has no intention, to register the Notes under the Securities Act or any state securities laws in the future.
