Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

CNX Resources Corporation, formerly known as CONSOL Energy Inc. (the “Company”) as borrower and certain of its subsidiaries as guarantor loan parties entered into Amendment No. 4, dated as of November 27, 2017 (the “Amendment”) with certain lenders and PNC Bank, National Association as administrative agent. The Amendment amends the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of June 18, 2014 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”). A copy of the Amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1, and is incorporated herein by reference. The description of the Amendment in this Form 8-K is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the Amendment.

The Amendment amends the Credit Agreement to allow, among other things, the spinoff of the coal assets of the Company as contemplated by the Form 10 of CONSOL Mining Corporation filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, as amended, and any transactions or arrangements entered into in connection with the spinoff, including releases of associated entities or assets from the Credit Agreement and any liens granted under the loan documents.

In connection with the spinoff of the coal assets, the Amendment also reduces the maximum facility amount under the Credit Agreement from $2.5 billion to $2.0 billion, (ii) reduces the letter of credit sublimit available to the Company, and (iii) caps the revolving credit commitments at $1.5 billion.

The description set forth above is not complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Amendment, a copy of which is filed herewith as an exhibit and the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.

The Amendment is being filed herewith solely to provide investors and security holders with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to be a source of financial, business or operational information about the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Amendment are made solely for purposes of that agreement and are made as of specific dates; are solely for the benefit of the parties thereto; may be made for the purpose of allocating contractual risk between the parties instead of establishing matters as facts; and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors or security holders. Investors and security holders should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any description thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties and covenants may change after the date of the Amendment, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in public disclosures.

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
