Re: | Helmerich & Payne, Inc. and Helmerich & Payne International Drilling Co. Registration Statement on Form S-3 |
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to Helmerich & Payne, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and its wholly owned subsidiary, Helmerich & Payne International Drilling Co. (the “Subsidiary”), in connection with the preparation and filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) of a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), relating to the registration under the Securities Act and the proposed issuance and sale from time to time pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act of:
(i) | shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.10 per share (the “Common Stock”); |
(ii) | shares of the Company’s preferred stock (the “Preferred Stock”); |
(iii) | warrants for the purchase of Common Stock, Preferred Stock and Debt Securities (as defined below) (the “Warrants”); |
(iv) | rights for the purchase of Common Stock (the “Rights”); |
(v) | units of the Company comprised of any combination of Common Stock, Preferred Stock, Warrants, Rights, Debt Securities or Debt Securities Guarantees (as defined below) or any combination thereof (the “Units”); |
(vi) | the Company’s unsecured debt securities, which may either be senior debt securities (the “H&P Senior Debt Securities”), senior subordinated debt securities (the “H&P Senior Subordinated Debt Securities”) or subordinated debt securities (the “H&P Subordinated Debt Securities” and, collectively with the Senior Debt Securities and the Senior Subordinated Debt Securities, the “H&P Debt Securities”); |
(vii) | the Subsidiary’s unsecured debt securities, which may either be senior debt securities (the “HPIDC Senior Debt Securities”), senior subordinated debt securities (the “HPIDC Senior Subordinated Debt Securities”) or subordinated debt securities (the “HPIDC Subordinated Debt Securities” and, collectively with the HPIDC Senior Debt Securities and the HPIDC Senior Subordinated Debt Securities, the “HPIDC Debt Securities”); |
Helmerich &
Payne, Inc.
April 28, 2022
Page 2
(viii) | guarantees of the H&P Debt Securities (the “H&P Debt Securities Guarantees”); and |
(ix) | guarantees of the HPIDC Debt Securities (the “HPIDC Debt Securities Guarantees” and, together with the H&P Debt Securities Guarantees, the “Debt Securities Guarantees”). |
The Common Stock, Preferred Stock, Warrants, Rights, Units, Debt Securities, and Debt Securities Guarantees, are collectively referred to herein as the “Securities.”
The H&P Senior Debt Securities are to be issued under an indenture entered into among the Company, the Subsidiary and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Trust Company”), as trustee (the “H&P Senior Debt Indenture”). The H&P Senior Subordinated Debt Securities are to be issued under an indenture to be entered into among the Company, the Subsidiary and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as successor trustee to the Trust Company, as original trustee (the “H&P Senior Subordinated Debt Indenture”). The H&P Subordinated Debt Securities are to be issued under an indenture to be entered into among the Company, the Subsidiary and the Trust Company, as trustee (the “H&P Subordinated Debt Indenture,” and together with the H&P Senior Debt Indenture and the H&P Senior Subordinated Debt Indenture, the “H&P Debt Indentures”).
The HPIDC Senior Debt Securities are to be issued under an indenture entered into among the Subsidiary, the Company, as parent guarantor, and the Trust Company, as trustee (the “H&P Senior Debt Indenture”). The HPIDC Senior Subordinated Debt Securities are to be issued under an indenture to be entered into among the Subsidiary, the Company, as parent guarantor, and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as successor trustee to the Trust Company, as original trustee (the “H&P Senior Subordinated Debt Indenture”). The Subordinated Debt Securities are to be issued under an indenture to be entered into among the Subsidiary, the Company, as parent guarantor, and the Trust Company, as trustee (the “H&P Subordinated Debt Indenture,” and together with the HPIDC Senior Debt Indenture and the HPIDC Senior Subordinated Debt Indenture, the “HPIDC Debt Indentures”).
In arriving at the opinions expressed below, we have examined originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction as being true and complete copies of the originals of the H&P Senior Debt Indenture, the HPIDC Senior Debt Indenture, forms of the H&P Debt Securities and H&P Debt Securities Guarantees, forms of the HPIDC Debt Securities and HPIDC Debt Securities Guarantees and such other documents, corporate records, certificates of officers of the Company and the Subsidiary and of public officials and other instruments as we have deemed necessary or advisable to enable us to render these opinions. In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity and competency of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies. As to any facts material to these opinions, we have relied to the extent we deemed appropriate and without independent investigation upon statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Company and the Subsidiary and others.

(iii) all Securities will be issued and sold in the manner stated in the Registration Statement and the applicable prospectus supplement;

(v) upon issuance of any Common Stock or Preferred Stock, including upon exercise, conversion or exchange of any Convertible Security, the total number of shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock issued and outstanding will not exceed the total number of shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, that the Company is then authorized to issue under its certificate of incorporation and other relevant documents;
(vi) in the case of Debt Securities and Debt Securities Guarantees, at the Relevant Time, the relevant H&P Debt Indenture or HPIDC Debt Indenture shall have been duly executed and delivered by the Company and all other parties thereto and duly qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”), and the requisite Statement of Eligibility of the Trustee on Form T-1 shall have been properly filed with the Commission; and
(vii) at the Relevant Time, a definitive purchase, underwriting or similar agreement and any other necessary agreement with respect to any Securities offered or issued will have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action of the Company and any relevant guarantor and duly executed and delivered by the Company or any relevant guarantor and the other parties thereto.

This opinion is limited to the effect of the current state of the laws of the United States of America and, to the limited extent set forth above, the laws of the State of Delaware and the facts as they currently exist. We assume no obligation to revise or supplement this opinion in the event of future changes in such laws or the interpretations thereof or such facts.
B.

C. We express no opinion regarding the effectiveness of (i) any waiver of stay, extension or usury laws or of unknown future rights; (ii) any waiver (whether or not stated as such) under the H&P Indenture, the HPIDC Indenture or any other Document of, or any consent thereunder relating to, unknown future rights or the rights of any party thereto existing, or duties owing to it, as a matter of law; (iii) any waiver (whether or not stated as such) contained in the H&P Indenture, the HPIDC Indenture or any other Document of rights of any party, or duties owing to it, that is broadly or vaguely stated or does not describe the right or duty purportedly waived with reasonable specificity; (iv) provisions relating to indemnification, exculpation or contribution, to the extent such provisions may be held unenforceable as contrary to public policy or federal or state securities laws; (v) any provision in any Document waiving the right to object to venue in any court; (vi) any agreement to submit to the jurisdiction of any Federal court; (vii) any waiver of the right to jury trial; (viii) any purported fraudulent transfer “savings” clause; or (ix) any provision to the effect that every right or remedy is cumulative and may be exercised in addition to any other right or remedy or that the election of some particular remedy does not preclude recourse to one or more others.
D.
