NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

TO BE HELD ON JUNE 3, 2026

Notice is hereby given that the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Amplify Energy Corp. will be held virtually, conducted via live audio webcast on June 3, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. Houston time. You will be able to attend the Annual Meeting online and submit questions during the meeting by visiting www.cesonlineservices.com/ampy26_vm. In order to virtually attend, you must register in advance at www.cesonlineservices.com/ampy26_vm prior to June 2, 2026 at 9:00 a.m. Houston time. You will also be able to vote your shares electronically at the Annual Meeting.

The Annual Meeting is being held to consider and act on the following proposals:

To elect five directors to our board of directors to hold office until our 2027 annual meeting of stockholders or until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified;

​

To ratify the appointment, by the Audit Committee of our board of directors, of Grant Thornton LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026;

​

To approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers;

​

To approve the Amplify Energy Corp. 2024 Amended and Restated Equity Incentive Plan;

​

To approve, by a non-binding vote, the frequency of stockholder advisory votes on the compensation of our named executive officers; and

​

To transact such other business as may be properly presented at the Annual Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof.

​

These matters are more fully described in the accompanying proxy materials. Only stockholders of record at the close of business on April 10, 2026, the record date, are entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting.

Pursuant to rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), we have elected to provide access to our proxy solicitation materials primarily via the Internet, rather than mailing paper copies of these materials to each stockholder. On or about April 23, 2026, we will mail to each stockholder of record a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials with instructions on how to access the proxy materials, vote, or request paper copies.

We look forward to greeting those stockholders who are able to be present virtually at the Annual Meeting. However, regardless of whether you plan to be with us virtually at the Annual Meeting, it is important that your voice be heard. Accordingly, we request that you vote on the proxy card by telephone, by internet or by signing, dating and returning the proxy in the postage-paid envelope provided.

If you have any questions or require assistance with voting your proxy card, please contact our proxy solicitation firm, Sodali & Co., at

By Order of the Board of Directors,
