Vitesse Energy, Inc.

From time to time we are subject to legal, administrative and environmental proceedings before various courts, arbitration panels and governmental agencies concerning claims arising in the ordinary course of business. These proceedings include certain contract disputes, additional environmental reviews and investigations, audits and pending judicial matters. Based on our current knowledge, we believe that the amount or range of reasonably possible losses will not, either individually or in the aggregate, materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The results of any litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and an unfavorable resolution in any legal proceedings could materially affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.

For additional information regarding our legal proceedings, refer to Note 9 (“Commitments and Contingencies”) to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and to Part I, Item 3, Legal Proceedings, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
