Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On April 21, 2015, Parsley Energy, L.P. (the “Borrower”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Parsley Energy, Inc. (the “Company”), Parsley Energy Management, LLC (the “General Partner”), Parsley Energy, LLC (the “Parent”), the Company, each of the guarantors party thereto (the “Guarantors”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”) and the lenders and other parties thereto entered into the Eighth Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Eighth Amendment”). The Eighth Amendment amends the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated October 21, 2013 (as amended by the First Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated December 20, 2013, the Second Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated February 5, 2014, the Third Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated April 15, 2014, the Fourth Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated May 2, 2014, the Fifth Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated May 9, 2014, the Sixth Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated September 5, 2014, and the Seventh Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated November 10, 2014, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among the Borrower, the General Partner, the Parent, the Company, the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as syndication agent, BMO Harris Bank, N.A., as documentation agent and the lenders party thereto.

The Eighth Amendment, among other things, modifies the terms of the Credit Agreement to permit Parsley Energy Operations, LLC (“Operations”) to make investments into a joint venture, in an aggregate amount not to exceed $10 million, subject to additional terms and conditions. The joint venture is deemed not to be a Subsidiary, as defined in and for purposes of the Credit Agreement, so long as Operations does not own 100% of the aggregate ordinary voting power of the outstanding equity interests of the joint venture. As a result, the joint venture will not be required to become a guarantor of the obligations under the Credit Agreement or grant liens against its assets or properties to secure the obligations under the Credit Agreement.

In addition, the Eighth Amendment modifies the terms of the Credit Agreement to allow the Borrower or any Subsidiary (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to liquidate any swap agreement without a reduction to the Borrowing Base (as defined in the Credit Agreement), provided, however that the Borrowing Base will be reduced once the sum of (i) the fair market value of any disposition of oil and gas properties, during the period between Schedule Redetermination Dates (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and (ii) the Borrowing Base value of the liquidated portion of any swap agreements, during the period between Schedule Redetermination Dates, exceeds 5% of the Borrowing Base then in effect.

Further, the Eighth Amendment increases the Aggregate Elected Borrowing Base Commitments (as defined in the Credit Agreement) from $365 million to $500 million and reduces the Borrowing Base from $560.8 million to $500 million.

From time to time, the agents, arrangers, book runners and lenders under the Credit Agreement and their affiliates have provided, and may provide in the future, investment banking, commercial lending, hedging and financial advisory services to the Company and its affiliates in the ordinary course of business, for which they have received, or may in the future receive, customary fees and commissions for these transactions.

The foregoing description of the Eighth Amendment is not complete and is qualified by reference to the full text of the Eighth Amendment, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 7.01

Regulation FD Disclosure.

On April 27, 2015, the Company issued a news release announcing the increase of aggregate lender commitments under the Credit Agreement to $500 million. A copy of the news release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Section 3. New Lender; Assignments and Reallocation of Commitments and Loans; Borrowing Base Decrease.

3.1 New Lender; Assignments and Reallocation of Commitments and Loans. Each Lender party to the Credit Agreement immediately prior to the Eighth Amendment Effective Date (used herein as defined below) (the “Existing Lenders”) has, in consultation with the Borrower, agreed to reallocate its respective Maximum Credit Amount and Commitment and to, among other things, allow each of U.S. Bank National Association, The Bank of Nova Scotia and Compass Bank to become a party to the Credit Agreement as a Lender (each, a “New Lender”) by acquiring an interest in the total Maximum Credit Amounts and Commitments. The Administrative Agent and the Borrower hereby consent to such reallocation and each New Lender’s acquisition of an interest in the Maximum Credit Amounts and Commitments and the Existing Lenders’ assignment of its Commitments to the extent effected by the reallocation contemplated hereby. On the Eighth Amendment Effective Date, and after giving effect to such reallocations, (a) the Maximum Credit Amount and Commitment of each Lender (including each New Lender) shall be as set forth on Annex I of this Eighth Amendment, which Annex I supersedes and replaces Annex I to the Credit Agreement and (b) each

New Lender shall become a party to the Credit Agreement, as amended by this Eighth Amendment, as a “Lender” and shall have all of the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Credit Agreement, as amended by this Eighth Amendment, and the other Loan Documents. With respect to such reallocation, each Lender (including each New Lender) shall be deemed to have acquired the Maximum Credit Amount and Commitment allocated to it from each of the other Lenders pursuant to the terms of an Assignment and Assumption as if the Lenders had executed an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such allocation. On the Eighth Amendment Effective Date, the Administrative Agent shall take the actions specified in Section 12.04(b)(v), including recording the assignments described herein in the Register, and such assignments shall be effective for purposes of the Credit Agreement. Notwithstanding Section 12.04(b)(ii)(C), no Person shall be required to pay a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 to the Administrative Agent in connection with such assignments. If on the Eighth Amendment Effective Date, any Eurodollar Loans have been funded, then the Borrower shall be obligated to pay any breakage fees or costs that are payable pursuant to Section 5.02 in connection with the reallocation of such outstanding Eurodollar Loans to effectuate the provisions of this paragraph.

3.2 Borrowing Base Decrease. For the period from and including the Eighth Amendment Effective Date to but excluding the next Redetermination Date, the amount of the Borrowing Base shall be equal to $500,000,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowing Base may be subject to further adjustments from time to time pursuant to Sections 2.07(e), 2.07(f), 8.12(c) or 9.12(d). For the avoidance of any doubt, this Borrowing Base increase shall constitute the April 1, 2015 Scheduled Redetermination.

3.3 Aggregate Elected Borrowing Base Commitments Increase. With respect to the increase of the Aggregate Elected Borrowing Base Commitments and to the reallocation of Commitments pursuant to Section 3.1 of this Eighth Amendment, the Borrower shall be deemed to have delivered an Increase Notice as required pursuant to Section 2.07(g)(ii)(A) and each Lender (including each New Lender) shall be deemed to have delivered a Lender Certificate required pursuant to Section 2.07(g)(ii)(B). Annex I of this Eighth Amendment shall satisfy the requirements of the Administrative Agent to distribute a revised Annex I pursuant to Section 2.07(g)(ii)(C).

Section 4. Conditions of Effectiveness. This Eighth Amendment will become effective on the date on which each of the following conditions precedent are satisfied or waived (the “Eighth Amendment Effective Date”):

(f) The Administrative Agent shall have received duly executed Notes payable to U.S. Bank National Association, The Bank of Nova Scotia and Compass Bank to the extent requested by such Lender, in a principal amount equal to the applicable new Maximum Credit Amount of such Lender, dated as of Eighth Amendment Effective Date.

(g) The Administrative Agent shall have received such other documents as the Administrative Agent or its special counsel may reasonably require.

The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized and directed to declare this Eighth Amendment to be effective when it has received documents confirming compliance with the conditions set forth in this Section 4 or the waiver of such conditions as agreed to by the Majority Lenders. Such declaration shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties to the Credit Agreement for all purposes.

by materiality shall be true and correct in all respects), except to the extent any such representations and warranties are expressly limited to an earlier date, in which case, such representations and warranties shall continue to be true and correct in all material respects (except that any representation and warranty that is qualified by materiality shall be true and correct in all respects) as of such specified earlier date, (ii) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (iii) no event, development or circumstance has occurred or exists that has resulted in, or could reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect.

(d) NO ORAL AGREEMENT.
