*The remainder of this cover page shall be filled out for a reporting person's initial filing on this form with respect to the subject class of securities, and for any subsequent amendment containing information which would alter disclosures provided in a prior cover page.

SCHEDULE 13D

The Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 22, 2017, as previously amended (the "Schedule 13D"), by Icahn Partners Master Fund LP, Icahn Partners LP and affiliates, with respect to the shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Shares"), of Sandridge Energy, Inc. (the "Issuer"), is hereby further amended to furnish the additional information set forth herein. All capitalized terms contained herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D.

Item 2. Identity and Background

Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

On August 19, 2024, Icahn Enterprises L.P. ("IEP") and Carl C. Icahn entered into settlement agreements with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), in connection with its inquiry previously disclosed by IEP. In connection with that settlement, the SEC entered an order in an administrative proceeding that contains non-scienter based findings that IEP failed to disclose in its Forms 10-K for the years 2018, 2019 and 2020 that Mr. Icahn pledged IEP securities as collateral to secure personal margin loans as required by Item 403(b) of Regulation S-K. The order relating to Mr. Icahn contains non-scienter based findings that, while Mr. Icahn's prior Schedule 13D filings generally disclosed that he had pledged IEP depository units as collateral for personal margin loans, subsequent Schedule 13D filings were not amended to describe loan agreements and amendments to loan agreements or to attach guarantees as required by Items 6 and 7 of Schedule 13D. Without admitting or denying the SEC's allegations (other than with respect to the SEC's jurisdiction), under the terms of the settlements, (i) IEP consented to the entry of an order requiring it to pay a civil penalty of $1.5 million and to cease and desist from violations and any future violations of Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and Rule 13a-1 thereunder, and (ii) Mr. Icahn consented to the entry of an order requiring him to pay a civil penalty of $500,000 and to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations of Section 13(d)(2) of the Exchange Act and Rule 13d-2(a) thereunder.
