Item 5.02
Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On April 4, 2019, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of Lonestar Resources US Inc. (the "Company") approved the amendment (the "Plan Amendment") of the Company’s Amended and Restated 2016 Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), subject to and effective upon stockholder approval. At the Company’s 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, held on May 23, 2019 (the "2019 Annual Meeting"), stockholders approved the Plan Amendment. The Plan Amendment (i) increases the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the Plan by 800,000 shares, from 3,000,000 shares to 3,800,000 shares, (ii) provides that on January 1 of each year, beginning with January 1, 2020 and ending with January 1, 2024, the number of shares available for issuance under the Plan will automatically be increased by either (A) a number of shares equal to 3% of the total number of shares of our Class A Voting Common Stock outstanding on an as-converted basis as of the end of the immediately preceding calendar year, or (B) a lesser amount as may be determined by the Board or a committee thereof and (iii) extends the term of the Plan until the five year anniversary of the date the Plan Amendment was approved by the Board.

The foregoing description of the Plan Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Plan, as amended, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
