PROXY STATEMENT

Solicitation by the Board of Directors of Proxies from

Stockholders for Annual Meeting of Stockholders

June  23, 2020

GENERAL INFORMATION

The Board of Directors of PrimeEnergy Resources Corporation, a Delaware corporation (hereinafter called the “Company”) solicits your proxy in the enclosed form which, if you do not plan to attend the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company on Tuesday, June 23, 2020, you are requested to fill out, sign as indicated and return to the Company in the enclosed self-addressed envelope, which requires no postage if mailed in the United States. Any proxy given pursuant to this solicitation may be revoked by the person giving it at any time before it is exercised by notice (i) in person by the stockholder’s oral revocation at the Annual Meeting or (2) in writing to the Company at 9821 Katy Freeway Houston, Texas 77024 (Attention: Corporate Secretary), if the proxy was executed and returned. The approximate date on which the proxy statement and form of proxy will be sent to security holders is May 14, 2020.

Proxies are being solicited by mail and all expenses of solicitation have been or will be borne by the Company. In addition, arrangements may be made with brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to send proxies and proxy materials to their principals and the Company will reimburse them for their expenses in so doing.

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on May 5, 2020 (the “Record Date”), are entitled to vote at the 2020 Annual Meeting and any adjournment thereof. There were 1,994,177 shares of common stock (“Common Stock”) outstanding on the Record Date. Each holder of Common Stock is entitled to vote on the proposals presented in this proxy statement for each share held, each share entitling the record holder thereof to one vote.

Matters To Be Voted On At The Annual Meeting

There are two (2) proposals that are scheduled to be voted on at the Annual Meeting. Shareholders are being asked to vote on (1) the election of five (5) Directors named herein to the Board of Directors of the Company and (2) approval and adoption of the amendment and restatement of our Restated Certificate of Incorporation in the form attached as Exhibit C to this Proxy Statement (the “Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation”).

Vote Required

All shares of the Company represented by proxies received in time and in proper form and condition and not revoked will be voted as specified in the proxy; or in the absence of specific direction, the proxy will be voted by the person designated therein:

FOR the election as Directors of the Company of the five (5) nominees named herein, to hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until their respective successors shall be duly elected and;

FOR the approval and adoption of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.

In the event any of the nominees should become unable to serve as a Director, it is intended that, pursuant to the accompanying form of proxy, votes will be cast for a substitute nominee designated by the Board of Directors.

1

The election of Directors will require the affirmative votes of a plurality of the shares of the Common Stock voting in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting. Approval and adoption of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation will require the affirmative votes of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock. The Company’s transfer agent will tabulate all votes that are received prior to the date of the Annual Meeting. The Company will appoint two inspectors of election, who may be officers or employees of the Company, to receive the transfer agent’s tabulation, to tabulate all other votes, and to certify the results of the elections. Abstentions and broker non-votes are each included in the determination of the number of shares present and voting (i.e., for quorum purposes), but shall not be counted for the purposes of the election of Directors.

Management of the Company knows of no matters to be submitted to the 2020 Annual Meeting with respect to which the stockholders are entitled to vote other than the election of Directors and the approval and adoption of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, but if procedural matters do properly come before the Meeting, the persons named in the proxy will vote according to their best judgment.

(Proposal No. 1)

Information about the Executive Officers (for information regarding Ms. Cummings and Mr. Drimal, see the descriptions on page 5).

Mr. Drimal and Ms. Cummings were elected by the Board of Directors to their respective offices in June 2019, at the annual meeting of the Board. Each will hold their respective offices until his or her successor is elected by the Board.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Board Independence and Composition

The core responsibility of the Board of Directors is to provide objective, independent judgment in its management oversight function and the Board’s composition reflects that principle. The Board is composed of a majority of independent directors. A Director’s independence is determined in accordance with the definition set forth in National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations (“NASDAQ”) listing standards and other pertinent and applicable legal and regulatory standards. The Board of Directors annually reviews the financial and other relationships between non-management Directors and the Company to determine whether those Directors are independent. Applying those standards in 2019, the Board has determined that each of the following Directors meet the independent standards: Clint Hurt, Thomas S.T. Gimbel, Jan K. Smeets and Ebersole Gaines Wehrle.

Board Leadership

The Board of Directors, in its discretion, may elect a Chairman of the Board. The Chairman leads the Board and presides at all Board meetings and is responsible for delivery of information for the Board’s informed decision-making.

Based upon the structure that best serves the interests of the Company, the Board determines whether the role of the Chairman of the Board and the Chief Executive Officer should be held by one individual or should be separated. Currently, the Board believes that the role of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer should be held by the same person because the combined position has served the Company well in the past and Charles E. Drimal, Jr. is highly qualified to serve in that role.

The Directors have also determined that it is not necessary to appoint a lead independent director at this time.

The Board’s Role in Risk Oversight

The senior management team of the Company is responsible for assessing and managing the Company’s various exposures to risk on a day-to-day basis, including the creation of appropriate risk management policies to identify, manage and mitigate significant risks. The Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing management’s execution of its responsibilities and for assessing the Company’s approach to risk management. The Board exercises those responsibilities periodically as part of its meetings by having the Chief Executive

6

Officer, the Chief Financial Officer and others in management roles of the Company review with the Board areas of material operational, financial and regulatory risk, the likelihood of such risks coming to fruition and management’s response thereto. This approach provides the Board with a thorough understanding of the relative magnitude of such risks and the ability to assess and influence the management and mitigation strategies undertaken by the Company to address those risks.

Board Meetings

The Board of Directors met three (3) times in 2019. All directors attended those meetings of the Board of Directors and the committee or committees thereof on which such director served during 2019 in person or by telephone conference.

Board Attendance at Annual Meeting

The Company does not have a policy that requires members of the Board of Directors to attend the Annual Meeting. All members of the Board of Directors are encouraged to attend the Annual Meeting. All of the members of the Board of Directors attended the Annual Meeting of the Company held in June 2019 in person or by telephone conference.

Committees of the Board

The Board of Directors has an Executive Committee, an Audit Committee and a Compensation Committee.

Executive Committee

The Executive Committee, composed of Messrs. Drimal, Jr., Hurt, Smeets and Ms. Cummings, is empowered to exercise all the authority of the Board between Board meetings, in the business and affairs of the Company, except as limited by applicable law. The Executive Committee met three times during 2019 in person or by telephone conference and informally, by telephone conference, on a nearly monthly basis during the year.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee, composed of Messrs. Wehrle, Gimbel and Smeets, met once in 2019. All members of the Audit Committee were independent under NASDAQ listing standards and other pertinent legal and regulatory standards. Mr. Wehrle, as the beneficial owner of more than 10% of the outstanding stock of the Company, falls outside of the safe harbor provisions of SEC Rule 10A-3(e)(1)(ii). The Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Smeets meets the qualifications of an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and NASDAQ listing standards. The Committee selects the independent auditors to audit the financial statements of the Company and approves the scope of the services to be provided by the auditors for the upcoming year. The Committee is also responsible for reviewing reports of the Company’s results, audits, financial policies and internal control procedures. The report of the Audit Committee is included in this proxy statement on page 11.

The Board of Directors and the Audit Committee have adopted a written charter for the Audit Committee, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit A to this proxy statement.

Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee, composed of Messrs. Gimbel and Smeets, met once in 2019. All members of the Compensation Committee were independent under NASDAQ listing standards and other pertinent legal and regulatory standards. The charter of the Compensation Committee requires that members of the Committee also

7

qualify as “outside directors” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code and as “non-employee” directors within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Committee annually reviews the Company’s goals, objectives and policies relevant to the compensation of the Company’s executive officers and directors. The Committee evaluates the performance of the executive officers in light of those goals, objectives and policies and makes its recommendations to the Board of Directors for the salaries, bonuses and other compensation to be paid to the executive officers. Mr. Drimal and Ms. Cummings participate in discussions with the Compensation Committee and make recommendations to the Committee with respect to the compensation of executive officers and directors. Neither Mr. Drimal nor Ms. Cummings participates in the deliberations or approval of the Committee concerning their respective compensation.

The Committee also recommends to the Board of Directors the compensation to be paid to members of the Company’s Board of Directors.

The Compensation Committee has the authority to retain outside compensation consultants to advise the Committee on market practices and the compensation policies of the Company. The Committee has not engaged any outside consultants or advisors for such services, nor have such services been engaged by the Company’s Board of Directors.

The Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee have adopted a written charter for the Compensation Committee. A copy of the charter, as most recently amended in May 2013, is attached as Exhibit B to this proxy statement.

The Board as Nominating Committee

The Company does not have a standing nominating committee. The Board of Directors acts as the nominating committee, with Mr. Drimal and Ms. Cummings abstaining. The majority of the Directors of the Company, Messrs. Hurt, Gimbel and Smeets who function as a nominating committee, are believed to satisfy applicable regulatory requirements for director independence. Those Directors are responsible for collecting and analyzing information with regard to directors’ “independence” as defined by NASDAQ listing standards and other pertinent legal and/or regulatory standards in effect at the time. They are also responsible for making recommendations concerning committee membership and ensuring that committee members satisfy the criteria for membership on a particular committee and have the skills to effectively participate in a particular committee.

The Directors who function as the nominating committee are also responsible for identifying and evaluating prospective nominees for vacancies on the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors will consider meritorious director candidates submitted to it by members of the Board and by stockholders of the Company, without regard to race, religion, gender, national origin or disability. The Board does not have a formal policy with regard to considering diversity in its evaluation of director nominations. Candidates for election must be willing to devote the time necessary to serve as a director and must possess the level of education, experience, and expertise, both with respect to financial matters and the oil and gas industry in general, necessary to effectively perform the duties of a member of the board of directors of a public company, and in particular of the Company. The Board of Directors strive to recommend candidates that further its objective of having a board that draws from a broad range of talents and expertise and reflects a diversity of background, experience and perspectives. The procedure to be followed by a stockholder to submit a nominee to the Board of Directors is set forth in “Stockholder Proposals and Nominations” in this proxy statement.

The Board of Directors believes that this procedure is adequate in the process of selecting persons for election as Directors of the Company. All of the Directors of the Company currently serving as Directors, with the exception of Jan Smeets, are designated as nominees for re-election at the 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. After serving as a Director of the Company for 32 years, Jan Smeets has decided not to run for re-election as a Director for personal reasons. He has been a valuable member of our team whom we miss and we

8

thank him for his years of service to the Company. Gifford Fong who previously served as a Director of the Company from May 1994 through June 2019 is being nominated for election as a Director of the Company.

EXECUTIVE AND DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

Compensation Overview

The Company has been guided by its Chief Executive Officer, Charles E. Drimal, Jr., and Chief Financial Officer, Beverly A. Cummings since 1987. The Board of Directors attributes much of the success of the Company to Mr. Drimal’s and Ms. Cummings’ leadership, skills and their dedication to the Company and its stockholders. In order to retain such highly skilled and experienced professionals for its senior management team, the Board of Directors must offer highly competitive compensation packages. At the same time, the Board of Directors is mindful that the primary goal of the Company is to build long-term stockholder value. Therefore, the alignment of the executive officers’ compensation with the Company’s performance results is a critical component of the analysis made by the Compensation Committee in determining the executive officers’ compensation each year.

The Board of Directors believes that the Compensation Committee’s approach in determining the compensation paid to the executive officers has been endorsed by the stockholders, who in 2016 supported by a vote of 83% the Board of Director’s resolution to approve the executive compensation paid in the prior year and chose to hold advisory voting on executive compensation once every three years thereafter. In light of those positive endorsements, the Compensation Committee continued to adhere to the same approach to determine executive compensation for this past year.

There are three elements of the compensation paid to the executive officers, to wit: (i) base salary; (ii) bonus (cash incentive) compensation, and (iii) equity awards. The base salaries that were provided to the executive officers were based upon a number of considerations including each executive officer’s level of responsibility, changes in their responsibilities from year to year, experience, skills and leadership ability. The Compensation Committee reviewed the base salary paid in the most recent years and the percentage change in salary from year to year. The Compensation Committee used their judgment and discretion rather than relying on a specific numerical metrics formula for results. The Compensation Committee assessed the challenges faced and overcome by the executive officers in advancing the Company through the year. The Compensation Committee recommended each of the executive officers be provided with the same percentage increase to each of their salaries. The base salary paid to each executive officer in 2019 is set forth in the “Salary” column of the Summary Compensation Table set forth in this proxy statement.

The cash incentive bonus compensation awarded to each executive officer is intended to correlate to the Company’s performance. In 2019, the executive officers advised the Compensation Committee that they had determined that certain employees of the Company would be awarded bonus compensation for the year. Their decision was based upon the contributions of those individuals to the positive effect on the Company’s leverage position, cash flow and earnings. They encouraged the Compensation Committee to consider the same criteria and apply the same analysis in its deliberations concerning the bonus compensation to be awarded to the executive officers, and to reach a similar conclusion with respect to the executive officers. As a result, the Compensation Committee recommended that incentive bonus compensation be awarded to the executive officers. The cash bonus paid to each executive officer in 2019 is reflected in the “Bonus” column of the Summary Compensation Table set forth in this proxy statement.

The Company awarded options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock to the executive officers in May 1989. The objective of the award was to retain high level officers and to motivate them to continue their relationship with the Company and thereby align their interests with the long-term interests of the Company’s stockholders. The options that were awarded have been fully exercisable by the executive officers since

9

May 1994. The Compensation Committee believes the options awarded to the executive officers continue to represent a significant stake in the Company. The Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that no additional options or other types of equity compensation be awarded to the executive officers in 2019.

The Directors do not receive any compensation in the form of Common Stock or option awards of Common Stock, nor do they participate in any Non-Equity Incentive Compensation or Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation plans. None of the Directors received compensation or other payment from any person or entity other than the Company for their services as a director of the Company.

APPROVAL AND ADOPTION OF THE AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION, TO (i) UPDATE THE PROVISIONS REGARDING EXCULPATION OF OUR DIRECTORS, AND (ii) PROVIDE FOR MANDATORY INDEMNIFICATION OF OUR DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW

(Proposal No. 2 on the Proxy)

The Board of Directors conducted a review of the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation to determine whether any provisions should be amended in light of recent developments in the law and market practices, the prominence of communications by electronic technologies and recent trends in industry and stock market standards. After careful consideration and review of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the Board of Directors, on April 24, 2020, determined that it is advisable to amend and restate the Restated Certificate of Incorporation in the form of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, which would (i) update the provisions regarding exculpation of our directors, and (ii) provide for mandatory indemnification of our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by law, as set forth in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, and the Board of Directors hereby recommends to the stockholders that they adopt the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, which the Board of Directors believes is consistent with best corporate governance practices.

11

(i) Exculpation of Directors from Personal Liability

Article EIGHTH of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation currently provides protection for directors from personal liability to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages resulting from their breaches of fiduciary duty as a director of the Company, but is silent as to the effect of future amendments of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”) further eliminating or limiting the liability of directors. The Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation would provide that if the DGCL is amended to further eliminate or limit the liability of directors, the liability of a director of the Company shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent then authorized by the DGCL.

The Board of Directors believes that authorizing the further elimination or limitation of the liability as provided in future amendments of the DGCL is necessary to attract and retain highly-qualified persons to serve as directors of the Company and, based on the Board of Directors’ review of current market practices, the Board of Directors believes that such provision is appropriate and consistent with present practices. Accordingly, the Board of Directors determined that it is advisable, and recommends to the stockholders that they adopt, an amendment and restatement of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, to provide that, if the DGCL is amended after the filing of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to authorize the further elimination or limitation of the liability of directors, then the liability of any director of the Company shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL, as so amended.

(ii) Mandatory Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Article SIXTH of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation currently provides that the Company is required to indemnify the Company’s directors, officers and employees who are made a party to any civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer or employee of the Company, subject to certain exceptions and limitations. The Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides in Article NINTH that directors and officers of the Company shall be indemnified to the fullest extent permitted by law, as now or hereafter in effect, other than in connection with certain actions brought by such persons, and further provides directors and officers with the right to be paid expenses incurred in defending proceedings in advance of the final disposition thereof. In addition, such provision permits, but does not require, the Company to indemnify employees of the Company, to the extent authorized by the Board of Directors from time to time. The Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation also provides that any repeal or modification of the indemnification provisions in Article NINTH will not adversely affect any rights of indemnification or advancement of expenses of a director or officer of the Company existing at the time of such repeal or modification with respect to any acts or omissions occurring prior to such repeal or modification.

The Board of Directors believes that providing directors and officers with the right to indemnification and advancement of expenses to the fullest extent permitted by law is necessary to attract and retain highly-qualified persons to serve as directors and officers of the Company and, based on the Board of Directors’ review of current market practices, the Board of Directors believes that such provision is appropriate and consistent with present practices. The Board of Directors further believes that, by providing indemnification and advancement of expenses to employees when and if authorized by the Board of Directors would give the Board of Directors the flexibility to indemnify and advance expenses to non-officer employees when and if the Board of Directors determines it is appropriate. Accordingly, the Board of Directors has determined that it is advisable and has approved, an amendment and restatement of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation in the form of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, and recommends to the stockholders that they adopt the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.

A copy of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation is attached to this proxy statement as Exhibit C. If the stockholders approve this Proposal No. 2, the Company will file the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware promptly after the Annual Meeting, which would become effective upon filing.

12

The affirmative vote of not less than a majority the voting power of all of the outstanding shares of common stock is required to adopt this proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as votes against the proposal.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR the adoption of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation

(Proposal No.  2)

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The Audit Committee oversees the Company’s financial reporting process on behalf of the Board of Directors. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process including the systems of internal controls. In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee reviewed the audited financial statements in the Annual Report with management including a discussion of the quality and the acceptability, of the accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments, and the clarity of disclosures in the financial statements.

The Audit Committee reviewed with the independent auditors, who are responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of those audited financial statements with generally accepted accounting principles, their judgments as to the quality, not just the acceptability, of the Company’s accounting principles and such other matters as are required to be discussed with the Audit Committee under generally accepted auditing standards. These include, but are not limited to, those matters under Auditing Standard No. 1301, as amended and adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. In addition, the Audit Committee has discussed with the independent auditors the auditors’ independence from management and the Company including the matters in the written disclosures required by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. The Company’s auditors do not perform financial information system design and implementation services, internal audit or tax services for the Company.

The Audit Committee discussed with the Company’s independent auditors the overall scope and plans for their audits. The Audit Committee meets with the independent auditors, with and without management present, to discuss the results of their examinations, their evaluations of the Company’s internal controls, and the overall quality of the Company’s financial reporting.

In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors (and the Board has approved) that the audited financial statements be included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

This report of the Audit Committee shall not be deemed incorporated by reference by any general statement incorporating by reference this proxy statement into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, except to the extent that the Company specifically incorporates this information by reference, and shall not otherwise be deemed filed under such Acts.

CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ETHICS

The Company is committed to observing sound, ethical principles in the conduct of its business and operations and by our officers and employees in the course of their duties. The Code of Business Conduct and

13

Ethics adopted by the Company was last amended in December, 2011. The Code, as amended, is available at the Company’s website at www.primeenergy.com. The Code of Conduct is applicable to the Company’s operations and to all of its employees, including the Company’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer and Directors. Any amendments to or waivers of the Code, to the extent applicable to the Company’s principal executive officers, will be posted on the Company’s website.

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended requires the Company’s executive officers and Directors, and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities (collectively, “Reporting Persons”), to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership of such securities with the Securities and Exchange Commission and to furnish the Company with copies of such reports. To the Company’s knowledge, based solely on review of the copies of such reports furnished to the Company with respect to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, there was only one instance of an untimely filing of such a report by one of our beneficial owners, Amrace. An indirect sale was made by Robert de Rothschild. Such report was filed by Amrace untimely, on February 19, 2020, and the Company was paid $7603.75 on March 2, 2020 by Amrace in order to rectify the short-swing profits.

INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS - FEES AND SERVICES

The Company engaged Grassi & Co., CPA, P.C. (“Grassi & Co.”) as the principal accountants for the Company with respect to the audit of the Company’s financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018. There were no disagreements with Grassi & Co on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures in connection with their audits. Representatives of Grassi & Co are not expected to be present at the 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, but will be available by speaker telephone during the meeting and will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so, and to answer stockholders’ questions.

The audit fees for professional audit services provided by Grassi & Co, for the audit of the Company’s annual financial statements for each of the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were $302,000 and $271,000, respectively. No fees were billed or paid by the Company for internal audit, tax or other services for the years ended December 31, 2019 or 2018.

STOCKHOLDERS’ PROPOSALS AND NOMINATIONS

Pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, stockholders may present proper proposals for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement and form of proxy and for consideration at its annual meeting of stockholders by submitting their proposals to the Company in a timely manner. In order to be so included for the 20210 Annual Meeting, stockholder proposals must be received by the Company at its principal executive offices at 9821 Katy Freeway, Houston, Texas 77024, no later than January 15, 2021, and must otherwise comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-8.

In addition, our Amended and Restated Bylaws contain notice procedures for stockholders to nominate a person as director and to propose business to be considered at an annual meeting when such matter is not submitted for inclusion in our proxy statement. Generally, notice of such a nomination or proposal must be delivered to the Company no later than the 90^th day nor earlier than the 120^th day, prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting. Accordingly, Stockholder proposals and nominations of directors to be brought before the 2021 Annual Meeting, made outside the Rule 14a-8 processes, must be submitted to the Company pursuant to Rule 14a-8, no earlier than February 23, 2021 and no later than March 25, 2021, or will be considered untimely and entitle the Company to refuse to acknowledge or include such matters for consideration, at the 2021 meeting.

14

If a stockholder desires to recommend an individual as a nominee for director to the Board of Directors, the stockholder shall mail the recommendation to the Secretary of the Board of Directors. The recommendation must include the name, address (business and personal) and the occupation of the nominee. The recommendation must also include such other information regarding the nominee as may reasonably be required by the Company.

COMMUNICATIONS WITH THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Stockholders may communicate with the members of the Board of Directors by mailing their communications to the Company, at PrimeEnergy Resources Corporation, 9821 Katy Freeway, Houston, Texas 77024.
