Newly disclosed

(2) delays in the commencement of commercial operations; and (3) under the majority of our SPAs, upon the occurrence of certain events of force majeure. 20 Table of Contents Although we have not had a history of material customer default or termination events, the occurrence of such events are largely outside of our control and may expose us to unrecoverable losses.
Our total production capacity is expected to be over 60 mtpa of LNG, inclusive of estimated debottlenecking opportunities, of which over 9 mtpa was under construction and the remainder was in operation as of December 31, 2025, comprised of the following: • over 30 mtpa of total production capacity in operation from natural gas liquefaction facilities located in Cameron Parish, Louisiana at Sabine Pass (the “SPL Project” ).
We also own and operate through CQP a 94-mile natural gas supply pipeline that interconnects the Sabine Pass LNG Terminal with several large interstate and intrastate pipelines (the “Creole Trail Pipeline” ). • over 30 mtpa of total expected production capacity, inclusive of estimated debottlenecking opportunities, including over 9 mtpa under construction and the remainder in operation as of December 31, 2025, from our natural gas liquefaction and export facility located near Corpus Christi, Texas (the “Corpus Christi LNG Terminal” ), of which we have 100% ownership interest.
The projects under construction at the Corpus Christi LNG Terminal include: ◦ a project consisting of seven midscale Trains that is expected to add total production capacity of over 10 mtpa of LNG once fully completed (the “Corpus Christi Stage 3 Project” ), with over 4 mtpa under construction and the remainder in operation from the first four midscale Trains that have reached substantial completion as of December 31, 2025; and ◦ a project consisting of two additional midscale Trains that is expected to add total production capacity of approximately 5 mtpa of LNG once fully completed, inclusive of estimated debottlenecking opportunities (the “CCL Midscale Trains 8 & 9 Project” and together with the existing assets at the Corpus Christi LNG Terminal, the Corpus Christi Stage 3 Project and the Corpus Christi Pipeline, the “CCL Project” ), which was under construction as of December 31, 2025.
Following our pre-filing in July 2025, in February 2026, we filed an application with the FERC under the NGA for authorization to site, construct and operate a further expansion of the CCL Project in a phased approach, inclusive of four liquefaction trains and supporting infrastructure, with an expected total peak production capacity of up to 24 mtpa of LNG, inclusive of estimated debottlenecking opportunities (the “CCL Expansion Project” ).
Risk Factors . 6 Table of Contents The following table summarizes pre-FID development efforts and certain key milestones associated with the SPL Expansion Project and the CCL Expansion Project: SPL Expansion Project CCL Expansion Project Expected total peak production capacity of LNG (1) Up to ~ 20 mtpa Up to 24 mtpa Milestone Regulatory (2) FERC authorizations: Positive environmental assessment Pending Pending Order under Section 3 of NGA Pending Pending Certification to commence construction Pending DOE export authorization: FTA countries ü Non-FTA countries Pending Financing Financing (3) (3) Commercialization and Other Contracting Definitive commercial agreements (4) (4) Definitive full-scope EPC contract Target Milestone FID (5) 2026/2027 2027/2028 ü indicates receipt of authorization, subject to ongoing conditionality (1) Anticipated based on capacity, scale, location and infrastructure.
In June 2025, certain subsidiaries of CQP updated the SPL Expansion Project’s FERC application, originally filed in February 2024, to reflect a two-phased project, inclusive of three liquefaction trains and supporting infrastructure, maintaining an expected total peak production capacity of up to approximately 20 mtpa of LNG, inclusive of estimated debottlenecking opportunities.
Corpus Christi LNG Terminal Liquefaction Facilities and Expansion Projects The Corpus Christi LNG Terminal, as described above under the caption General , has over 30 mtpa of total expected production capacity, inclusive of estimated debottlenecking opportunities, including over 4 mtpa under construction from the Corpus Christi Stage 3 Project, approximately 5 mtpa under construction from the CCL Midscale Trains 8 & 9 Project and the remainder in operation as of December 31, 2025.

In December 2025, we filed an application with the FERC to increase the LNG production capacity of the previously-authorized Corpus Christi Stage 3 Project and CCL Midscale Trains 8 & 9 Project by approximately 5 mtpa, which remains pending at the FERC.
Following our pre-filing in July 2025, in February 2026, we filed an application with the FERC under the NGA for authorization to site, construct and operate the CCL Expansion Project in a phased approach, inclusive of four liquefaction trains and supporting infrastructure, with an expected total peak production capacity of up to 24 mtpa of LNG, inclusive of estimated debottlenecking opportunities.
As a result of our efforts described above, in 2025, we achieved OGMP 2.0 Gold Standard reporting by the UNEP for our comprehensive methane emissions measurement and reporting under the OGMP 2.0 program and recognition by the Coalition for LNG Emissions Abatement toward Net-zero led by the Japan Organization for Metals and Energy Security.

We are the largest producer of LNG in the United States and we are the second largest LNG operator globally, based on the total production capacity of our liquefaction facilities, which totaled approximately 45 mtpa as of December 31, 2024.
In March 2023, certain of our subsidiaries submitted an application with the FERC under the Natural Gas Act of 1938, as amended (the “NGA” ), for an expansion adjacent to the CCL Project consisting of two midscale Trains with an expected total production capacity of approximately 3 mtpa of LNG (the “CCL Midscale Trains 8 & 9 Project” ), for which a positive Environmental Assessment from the FERC was received in June 2024.
In February 2024, certain subsidiaries of CQP submitted an application to the FERC under the NGA for authorization to site, construct and operate the SPL Expansion Project, as well as an application to the DOE requesting authorization to export LNG to FTA countries and non-FTA countries, both of which applications exclude debottlenecking.

On February 18, 2022, the FERC updated its 1999 Policy Statement on certification of new interstate natural gas facilities and the framework for the FERC’s decision-making process, modifying the standards that the FERC uses to evaluate applications to include, among other things, reasonably foreseeable greenhouse gas ( “GHG” ) emissions that may be attributable to the project and the project’s impact on environmental justice communities.
In January 2024, the Biden Administration announced a temporary pause on pending decisions on exports of LNG to non-FTA countries until the DOE can update the underlying analyses for authorizations, which did not have a material adverse effect on our business, contracts, financial condition, operating results, cash flow, or liquidity for the year ended December 31, 2024.
