Item 5.03. | Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year. |
On July 18, 2024, following the approval by the shareholders of EQT Corporation (the “Company”) of an amendment to the Company’s Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Articles”) to increase the authorized number of shares of common stock, no par value, of the Company (the “common stock”) from 640,000,000 shares to 1,280,000,000 shares (the “Articles Amendment”) at a special meeting of the Company’s shareholders (the “Special Meeting”), the Company amended the Articles by filing with the Pennsylvania Department of State the Articles Amendment, which became effective upon filing. A copy of the Articles Amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1.
Item 5.07. | Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders. |
At the Special Meeting held on July 18, 2024, the Company’s shareholders voted on the following two proposals, each of which is described in more detail in the joint proxy statement/prospectus filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 5, 2024 (the “joint proxy statement/prospectus”): (i) a proposal to approve the issuance of shares of common stock pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 10, 2024 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Humpty Merger Sub Inc., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, Humpty Merger Sub LLC, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and Equitrans Midstream Corporation (the “Share Issuance Proposal”), and (ii) a proposal to approve the Articles Amendment (the “Articles Amendment Proposal”). The final voting results for such proposals were as follows:
The Share Issuance Proposal was approved, with the following votes cast at the Special Meeting:
Votes For | Votes Against | Abstentions | Broker Non-Votes | |||
384,358,179 | 568,063 | 1,787,681 | 25,241,146 |
The Articles Amendment Proposal was approved, with the following votes cast at the Special Meeting:
Votes For | Votes Against | Abstentions | Broker Non-Votes | |||
407,527,168 | 2,614,603 | 1,813,298 | 0 |
The proposal to approve one or more adjournments of the Special Meeting, if necessary or appropriate, to permit solicitation of additional votes or proxies if there are not sufficient votes to approve the Share Issuance Proposal and the Articles Amendment Proposal, which was described in the joint proxy statement/prospectus, was not voted on at the Special Meeting because there were sufficient votes to approve the Share Issuance Proposal and the Articles Amendment Proposal.
The transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Merger”) are currently expected to be completed on July 22, 2024, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain closing conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement.

Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Report”) contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Statements that do not relate strictly to historical or current facts are forward-looking. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, forward-looking statements contained in this Report specifically include statements regarding the Company’s expectations relating to the Merger, including the expected completion of the Merger and the timing thereof. The forward-looking statements included in this Report involve risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the following, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected: the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement; the risk that required governmental and regulatory approvals may delay the Merger or result in the imposition of conditions that could cause the parties to abandon the Merger; the risk that the parties may not be able to satisfy the conditions to the Merger in a timely manner or at all; and risks relating to any legal proceedings relating to the Merger. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. The Company has based these forward-looking statements on current expectations and assumptions about future events, taking into account all information currently known by it. While the Company considers these expectations and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, regulatory and other risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and beyond the Company’s control. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and except as required by law, the Company does not intend to correct or update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
