No. 1“), Amendment No. 2 filed with the SEC on July 31, 2017 (“Amendment No. 2“), Amendment No. 3 filed
with the SEC on August 14, 2017 (“Amendment No. 3“), Amendment No. 4 filed with the SEC on September 20, 2017
(“Amendment No. 4“) and Amendment No. 5 filed with the SEC on October 2, 2017, (“Amendment No. 5“,
and together with the Original Schedule 13D, Amendment No. 1, Amendment No. 2, Amendment No. 3, Amendment No. 4 and this Amendment
No. 6, the “Schedule 13D“) with respect to the shares (“Shares“) of common stock, no par value,
of EQT Corporation, a Pennsylvania corporation (the “Issuer“). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise
defined in this Amendment No. 6 shall have the meanings set forth in the Schedule 13D. This Amendment No. 6 amends Items 3, 4,
5(a), (b) and (c) and 7 as set forth below.
| Item 3. | SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION. |
The two first paragraphs of Item 3 of
the Schedule 13D are hereby amended and restated in their entirety as follows:
The 10,374,129 Shares reported herein as beneficially
owned by the Reporting Persons were acquired at an aggregate purchase price of approximately $599.2 million.
The 10,257,129 Shares reported herein by JANA
were acquired at an aggregate purchase price of approximately $592.5 million. Such Shares were acquired with investment funds in
accounts managed by JANA and margin borrowings described in the following sentence. Such Shares are held by the investment funds
managed by JANA in commingled margin accounts, which may extend margin credit to JANA from time to time, subject to applicable
federal margin regulations, stock exchange rules and credit policies. In such instances, the positions held in the margin accounts
are pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in the account. The margin accounts bear interest at a rate
based upon the broker’s call rate from time to time in effect. Because other securities are held in the margin accounts, it is
not possible to determine the amounts, if any, of margin used to purchase the Shares reported herein.
| Item 4. | PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION. |
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended
and supplemented by the addition of the following:
On October 24, 2017, JANA released a presentation
to shareholders of the Issuer attached hereto as Exhibit L and incorporated herein by reference.
| Item 5. | INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE COMPANY. |
Paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of Item 5
of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended and restated in their entirety as follows:
(a) The aggregate percentage of Shares
reported to be beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons is based upon 173,832,392 Shares outstanding, which is the total number
of Shares outstanding as of September 25, 2017, as reported in the Issuer’s Prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3),
filed with the SEC on October 12, 2017.
