This DEFA14A serves as the definitive proxy statement for Permian Resources' upcoming annual meeting, formalizing proposals previously outlined in a preliminary filing. Key items for shareholder vote include the approval of an amendment to the 2023 Long Term Incentive Plan, which would authorize the issuance of up to an additional 30 million shares. This represents a significant potential dilution of approximately 3.7% based on current market value.
