CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Board Composition

The number of members of our Board will be determined from time-to-time by resolution of our Board. Currently, the number of directors comprising our Board is set at seven. Our Board consists of a single class of directors, each serving one-year terms.

Director Independence

As a public company, we are subject to various requirements of Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Sarbanes-Oxley”) and the rules of the NYSE and the SEC. Generally, these rules require that a specified number or percentage of directors serving on the board and certain committees meet applicable standards of independence. Our Board may increase the number of directorships to ensure that our Board includes the requisite number of independent directors pursuant to Sarbanes-Oxley and rules of the NYSE and the SEC.

In evaluating director candidates, we assess whether a candidate possesses the integrity, judgment, knowledge, experience, diversity, skills, and expertise that are likely to enhance the board’s ability to manage and direct our affairs and business, including, when applicable, to enhance the ability of the committees of the board to fulfill their duties. Our Board has determined that, with the exception of Mr. Schmitz, all of our director nominees (Gayle L. Burleson, Richard A. Burnett, Luis Fernandez-Moreno, Robin H. Fielder, Troy W. Thacker, and Douglas J. Wall) are independent under the independence standards of the NYSE. In making this determination, the Board affirmatively determined that each independent director has no material relationship with the Company. In addition, our Board previously determined that Robert V. Delaney, our former director, was independent under the independence standards of the NYSE while he served on the Board during fiscal year 2023.

Leadership Structure of the Board

The Bylaws and Corporate Governance Guidelines provide the Board with flexibility to combine or separate the positions of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer and/or to appoint a lead director in accordance with its determination that utilizing one or the other structure would be in the best interests of our Company. Since January 2021, Mr. Schmitz has served as our President, Chief Executive Officer, and Chairman of the Board. He facilitates communications between members of the Board and works with management in the preparation of the agenda for each Board meeting. All of our directors are encouraged to make suggestions for Board agenda items or pre-meeting materials. Mr. Burnett was appointed in March 2023 as the Lead Director, effective following our 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. As Lead Director, Mr. Burnett sets the agenda for the meetings of the independent directors in executive session, presides over these meetings and provides the independent directors guidance and feedback to our management team, provides input on the design of the Board, and, when appropriate, represents the Board in communications with shareholders and other stakeholders. Mr. Burnett’s duties as Lead Director also include the following:

•

Serve, as necessary, as a liaison between the Chairman and the independent directors.

•

Review and approve information sent to the Board.

•

Review, approve and help develop the agendas and scheduling for Board and committee meetings.

•

Call, as necessary, meetings of the independent directors.

•

Be available for consultation and communication with shareholders, as appropriate.

The Board has concluded that our current leadership structure is appropriate at this time and will continue to periodically review our leadership structure and may make such changes in the future as it deems

Select Water Solutions

TABLE OF CONTENTS

appropriate. By meeting in executive sessions on a regular basis, the independent directors have the opportunity to identify and evaluate issues facing the Company, engaging in a frank and candid dialogue without management being present. The Board believes that its programs for overseeing risk, as described under “Role of Board in Risk Oversight Process,” would be effective under a variety of board leadership frameworks. Accordingly, the Board’s risk oversight function does not significantly impact its selection of the current leadership structure.

2024 Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Role of Board in Risk Oversight Process

Risk assessment and oversight are an integral part of our governance and management processes. The Board encourages management to promote a culture that incorporates risk management into our corporate strategy and day-to-day business operations. Management discusses strategic and operational risks at regular management meetings and conducts specific strategic planning and review sessions during the year that include a focused discussion and analysis of the risks facing the Company. Throughout the year, senior management reviews these risks with the Board at regular Board meetings as part of management presentations that focus on business functions, operations or strategies, and presents the steps taken by management to mitigate or eliminate such risks.

The Board does not have a standing risk management committee, but rather administers this oversight function directly through the Board as a whole. The Board is responsible for monitoring and assessing strategic risk exposure, and the Audit Committee assists the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities by overseeing our major financial risk exposures and the steps our management has taken to monitor and control these exposures. The Audit Committee also monitors compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and considers and approves or disapproves any related-person transactions.

MANAGEMENT
Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Accounting Officer, and General Counsel, Chief Compliance Officer & Corporate Secretary, and other members of management monitor and implement policies for managing the Company’s risks, including those related to legal, accounting, and financial matters, and report periodically on these matters to the Board and its Committees.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Identification of Director Candidates

It is the responsibility of the Nominating, Governance, and Sustainability (NG&S) Committee to identify, evaluate, and recommend to the Board the director nominees for election at the annual meeting of stockholders, as well as to fill vacancies or additions on our Board that may occur between annual meetings. The NG&S Committee endeavors to recommend only director candidates who possess the highest personal values and integrity; who have experience and have exhibited achievements in one or more of the key professional, business, financial, legal and other challenges that face a U.S. oilfield services company; who exhibit sound judgment, intelligence, personal character, and the ability to make independent analytical inquiries; who demonstrate a willingness to devote adequate time to Board duties; and who are likely to be able to serve on our Board for a sustained period. The Board and the NG&S Committee are also committed to providing investors with disclosure concerning the backgrounds, skills, and qualifications of our directors. We have found that the diversity and strength of our directors’ professional and leadership experience allows for open and robust dialog and enhances the Board’s decision-making ability.

The Board and the NG&S Committee have reflected in the charter of the NG&S Committee our commitment to consider diversity in professional experience, skills, and background; diversity in race and gender; and the optimal enhancement of the current mix of talent and experience on the Board when considering individual director candidates and future opportunities for strengthening our Board’s composition. In that regard, the NG&S Committee endeavors to achieve an overall variety and mix of diversity in such areas among our directors over time. The NG&S Committee assesses its effectiveness in this regard as part of the annual Board and committee evaluation process. The NG&S Committee believes the current members of the Board reflect diverse experience in the oil and gas industry and accounting and investment analysis fields, among other areas, as well as demonstrated leadership experience. The NG&S Committee will continue to seek opportunities to enhance this diversity and does not discriminate based upon race, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, citizenship, or any other legally protected status.

In identifying potential director candidates, the NG&S Committee relies on any source available for the identification and recommendation of candidates, including current directors and officers and our stockholders. In addition, the NG&S Committee from time to time will engage a third-party search firm to identify or evaluate, or assist in identifying or evaluating potential candidates, for which the third-party search firm will be paid a fee. As part of the search process for each new director, the NG&S Committee seeks to include women and minorities in the pool of candidates (and instructs any search firm the Committee engages to do so). The search firm will also assist the NG&S Committee to identify candidates reflecting diversity in race, gender, and specialized experience. The NG&S Committee will treat recommendations for directors that are received from the Company’s stockholders equally with recommendations received from any other sources; provided, that the recommendations comply with the procedures in this Proxy Statement.

2024 Proxy Statement

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

We believe that attracting and retaining qualified non-employee directors is critical to the future value of our growth and governance. Each of our non-employee directors is eligible to receive cash and equity compensation in accordance with our director compensation program. As Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Schmitz does not receive any compensation for his service on the Board.

In February 2023 the Board revised the cash retainers payable under our director compensation program for our non-employee directors to better align our non-employee director compensation with that of our peers. Effective January 1, 2023, the cash retainers payable to our non-employee directors are as follows:

Annual cash retainer of $70,000;

•

Supplemental retainer of $20,000 for the chair of the Audit Committee;

Supplemental retainer of $15,000 for the chair of the Compensation Committee;

•

Supplemental retainer of $10,000 for the chair of the NG&S Committee;

•

Supplemental retainer of $20,000 for the Lead Independent Director; and

•

Supplemental retainer of $100,000 for the Chairman of the Board.

Non-employee directors are also eligible for annual grants of restricted shares generally subject to a one-year vesting period with an aggregate value of $150,000 at the date of grant. In accordance with our director compensation program, each of our non-employee directors, other than Mr. Delaney, were granted 20,632 restricted shares on May 5, 2023 that will vest on May 5, 2024.

As discussed above under “Compensation Discussion and Analysis — Other Compensation-Related Guidelines and Policies — Stock Ownership and Retention Guidelines,” our non-employee directors are subject to certain stock ownership and retention requirements. All members of our Board are also reimbursed for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in the performance of their services to us.

SUSTAINABILITY AND CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY

[MISSING IMAGE: ph_sustainability-4clr.jpg]

We are committed to developing a corporate strategy that supports the long-term viability of our business model in a manner that focuses on our people, our customers, the environment, and the communities in which we operate. Whether it’s about uniting our teams around integrated water and chemistry solutions, creating sustainable partnerships with our customers, integrating large infrastructure networks, or being good stewards for our surrounding communities, our business is all about fostering connections. Whether it’s molecules or pipelines or people, we are all connected by water.

We believe this focus will help our customers achieve their short-term and long-term sustainability goals, help us attract and retain top talent, and further our efforts to generate stockholder returns. We believe our commitment to foster a culture of corporate responsibility is an important part of being a company with operations spanning the contiguous United States. Further, we believe being a good corporate steward is strategic to our growth in the energy industry and will better allow us to develop solutions that both address the needs of our customers and contribute to sustainable business practices.

As a leader in the water solutions industry, we place the utmost importance on safe, environmentally responsible management of water throughout the lifecycle of a well. Additionally, we believe that responsibly managing water resources through our operations to help conserve and protect the environment in the communities in which we operate is paramount to our continued success. We have identified the following four priorities as part of our comprehensive corporate responsibility initiative: Environmental Consciousness; Health and Safety; Human Capital Management; and Community Outreach. As a service company, we compete with other service providers based on various factors, including safety and operational performance, technological innovation, process efficiencies and reputational awareness. We believe there is a strong link between these corporate responsibility initiatives and our ability to provide value in our industry.

Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility

In March 2022, SES Holdings and Select Energy Services, LLC (“Select LLC”) entered into a $270.0 million amended and restated senior secured sustainability-linked revolving credit facility (the “Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility”) that replaced our previous credit facility. Under the Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility, the interest rate margin and the facility fee rates are subject to adjustments based on Select LLC’s performance of specified sustainability target thresholds with respect to (i) total recordable incident rate (“TRIR”), as the Employee Health and Safety Metric and (ii) barrels of produced water recycled at permanent or semi-permanent water treatment and recycling facilities owned or operated, as the Water Stewardship Metric, in each case, subject to limited assurance verification by a qualified independent external reviewer. The adjustment for the interest rate margin is a range of plus and minus 2.5 basis points for each of the Employee Health and Safety Metric and the Water Stewardship Metric, and the adjustment for the fee margin is a range of plus and minus 0.5 basis points for each of the Employee Health and Safety Metric and the Water Stewardship Metric, subject to the mechanics under the Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility. The threshold for TRIR and barrels of produced water recycled in

TABLE OF CONTENTS

2023 were 1.35 and 35.0 million barrels, respectively. The target for TRIR and barrels of produced water recycled in 2023 were 1.01 and 37.5 million barrels, respectively. In 2023, we outperformed the target for each metric with a TRIR of 0.44 and approximately 157.2 million barrels of produced water recycled at our fixed facilities, achieving the maximum downward adjustment to our interest rate margin and fee margin.

Environmental Consciousness

As a public company whose primary focus is on the management of water and water logistics supporting the energy industry, we acknowledge our crucial role in responsibly handling water resources. Accordingly, the importance of water stewardship through our operations, including our growing recycling efforts to help conserve water and protect the environment, is paramount to our continued success and sustained growth. We view our unique position as an opportunity to transform water management by leveraging our chemicals business to develop innovative produced water management solutions that increase our customers’ ability to reuse produced water and add value to their operations. As for management of water logistics, our Company was founded with a focus on water transfer through temporary and permanent pipeline, which substantially reduces the industry’s use of traditional trucking services for water transfer operations, thereby significantly reducing emissions generated by semi-trucks moving water and reducing the level of truck traffic on the roads in the areas in which we operate. We estimate that we eliminate approximately 4,000 truckloads of water during a single well completion job using our temporary and permanent pipeline solutions. We also work diligently to implement sustainability initiatives when possible that reduce our environmental footprint.

In support of our water solutions business, our chemical technologies business utilizes environmentally conscious chemistry when possible, such as using non-detectable solvents, replacing nonylphenol ethoxylates with alcohol ethoxylates, and replacing crude oil-derived raw materials with cleaner, natural gas derived materials. The chemistries we have developed allow for extended use of produced water and the reuse of produced water without the need for extensive reconditioning measures. As discussed below, we have made significant changes in our operations to improve our water management and chemical solutions to support environmental protection, and while we are proud of what we have accomplished, we are constantly striving to improve in these areas. We regularly interact with local, state, and federal governments in order to promote compliance with applicable laws, and we aim to develop partnerships with officials to enhance the responsible use of natural resources as oil and gas development matures.

Environmental Highlights

Responsible Water Management and Conservation. We believe water is a valuable resource and understand that the energy industry is competing for this resource. As a company, we continue to provide access to water as demanded by our customers. However, we have significantly increased our focus on the recycling and reuse of produced water, as well as industrial water sources, to meet the industry’s water demand and align our operations with the sustainability goals of our customers. By doing so, we strive to both reduce the amount of produced water being injected into saltwater disposal wells and to reduce the industry usage of fresh water.

In 2023, we estimate that we recycled approximately 248 million barrels of produced water at our fixed facilities and through our modular recycling solutions. We recycled approximately 157 million barrels of produced water at our fixed facilities, representing a 319% outperformance of our 2023 Water Stewardship Metric associated with our Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility. Additionally, we collectively treated and conditioned over 438 million barrels of water prior to use in the hydraulic fracturing process. This compares to approximately 68 million barrels of produced water recycled at our fixed facilities and over 336 million barrels of water treated and conditioned in 2022. Further, we estimate that over 85% of our water transfer jobs in the Permian Basin executed during 2023 transported produced water for our customers. We believe produced water recycling and reuse will satisfy a significant portion of the water demand in our industry in the coming years, and we have meaningfully supplemented our capabilities and solutions through organic investment and acquisitions during 2023.

Ventless Flowback Operations. In 2020, our Flowback and Well Testing team began to utilize a specialized and reengineered design of the ventless flowback operation that allows for increased capacity. This ventless flowback solution achieves increased flow rates of up to 500 barrels per hour (“BPH”), improves operational efficiencies, and addresses regulatory emission guidelines. Using this solution, all produced gas is captured and either sold, repurposed, or destructed, substantially reducing emissions into the atmosphere. Select’s ventless flowback solution enables operators to achieve higher production rates while maintaining strict adherence to environmental and safety standards and was used to continually provide benefit to Select’s customers.

Minimizing Emissions During Flowback Operations. The Select Flowback and Well Testing team remains dedicated to finding solutions for reducing emissions, ensuring operators meet production targets while upholding stringent environmental standards. We’ve engineered a ventless flowback solution capable of handling flow rates up to 500 BPH boosting production efficiency. With this solution, all gas produced is captured and either sold, repurposed and/or effectively destructed, leading to a significant decrease in emissions. Furthermore, Select provides cutting-edge portable combustion technology that outperforms flaring by offering better residence time, turbulence, and higher temperatures for efficient and effective waste gas destruction. Our combustors are uniquely designed with dynamic turn-down capability to adapt to fluctuating flow rates in real-time, usable throughout various phases of the well from drilling, well completion, production and end of well life. Our team of experts ensures proper sizing for effective emission reduction in both rental and service applications. To further minimize emissions, a significant portion of Select’s test separator fleet has been revamped to operate using solar power for telemetry and air supplied pneumatic valve operation, reducing environmental impact. Select offers one of the largest portable test separator fleets available today.

Significantly Reducing Trucking Requirements. Our Company was developed with a focus on water transfer through temporary and permanent pipeline, which can substantially reduce the industry’s use of traditional trucking services for water transfer operations. An average well in the Permian Basin may use as much as 500,000 barrels of water when being completed, which is the equivalent of nearly 4,000 120-barrel truckloads of water. Over the course of a single three-mile water transfer job, our services displace the need for approximately 4,000 trucks that would travel approximately 24,000 miles using approximately 4,000 gallons of diesel fuel and the related emissions.

Over the course of 2023, we were working on an average of 40 water transfer jobs per day. With approximately 3,000 miles of permanent and temporary pipelines operational across the U.S., we are actively transporting millions of barrels of water via permanent and temporary pipeline solutions every single day. Combined, we believe our water transfer operations are significantly more efficient than traditional trucking transportation services, and believe they not only greatly reduce carbon emissions but also reduce environmental dangers that coincide with more trucks on the road in the communities in which we operate.

Automation Through WaterOne. Automation services are a growing focus of our Company. WaterOne is our full suite of automated water transfer and treatment solutions, which are capable of being monitored and adjusted in real time without the need for employees to physically drive to the job location. Automation creates additional efficiencies for water services equipment, burning less fuel than non-automated equipment and responding more quickly to any threatened risk or actual release of fluids. This response not only helps to mitigate the results of any release, it also can reduce the likelihood of certain releases of water by reading tank levels and automatically responding when certain thresholds are met. WaterOne is more cost efficient than non-automated systems and reduces the manpower required by our operations. Further, utilizing automation in our chemical treatment solutions allows us to implement these same efficiency and emission reduction efforts across other areas of our operations. Our ability to provide fully automated solutions reduces costs to our customers, increases our efficiencies, enhances the safety of our employees, and reduces the likelihood of releasing contaminated fluids into the environment.

Air Emissions Management. With a large workforce constantly on the move, we pay close attention to reducing emissions relating to our operations. Over the course of recent years, we have:

•

implemented alerts to reduce the number of vehicles idling in our everyday operations;

•

reduced the use of red dye diesel to low sulfur, which burns cleaner; and

2024 Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•

replaced several vehicles with semi-permanent trailers that reduce the need for additional trucks traveling to and idling on a job, and cool more efficiently for employee use while in the field.

We also have a team of engineers whose primary focus is to maximize the efficiency of our water transfer operations, considering elevation changes, water volume requirements, flow rates, and similar factors, which helps us to have the right equipment on a job without needlessly generating additional emissions from transporting unnecessary equipment.

Air Quality Compliance Program. We are required by various governmental agencies to obtain certain permits, licenses, and certificates with respect to our operations. These laws and regulations include the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act and similar laws that provide for responses to, and liability for, releases of hazardous substances into the environment. In connection with our previously disclosed agreement regarding the Clean Air Act and as part of our air emissions management program, we implemented our Clean Air Act Compliance Program, which we believe supports that (1) vehicles in our fleet are operating properly and in conformity with environmental emissions requirements, (2) employees are trained in compliance with Clean Air Act requirements and understand the implications that violations of the Clean Air Act have on the environment, and (3) employees who report potential environmental misconduct are protected from retaliation. We are firmly committed to reducing emissions intensity in various aspects of our operations.

Health and Safety

We emphasize the safety of our employees and the execution of our operations, including rigorous safety training for our employees and the development of a variety of safety programs designed to make us a market leader in safety standards. We believe this is one of the key tenets of a successful ESG strategy. Our employees are the reason we believe we are a leader in the water management and chemical solutions businesses, and their safety and well-being is a top priority. We continuously strive to develop and maintain systems to safeguard people, property, and the environment. Our employees are trained in current worksite safety procedures as well as how to work safely with certified, properly maintained equipment. We take pride in the initiatives and programs we implement and the improvements we have seen from such efforts. These efforts are instrumental in fostering strong and lasting relationships with our customers and attracting and retaining talented personnel. Our environmental, health and safety (“EHS”) group supports our efforts to minimize incidents and improve our safety incident rates by identifying and implementing critical controls, developing standardized procedures, and delivering technical training and communications across the workforce.

Health and Safety Highlights

Learning Management System. The Select Learning Management System (“LMS”) enhances our employee operating and safety training. The LMS has several applications and is tailored to respond to training logistical challenges associated with having geographically diverse operations, complementing instructor-led training, and giving our employees opportunities to be successful. Our Safety Leadership Seminar (“SLS”) was created internally for employees and supervisors to help them take the next step in becoming a safety leader. The LMS and SLS provide our employees with an awareness of all the latest safety processes and initiatives we implement across the organization.

Safe Driving Technology. We have initiated a program to implement safe driving technology in many of our Company-provided vehicles driven by employees and we intend to expand this program going forward. This technology provides real time audio coaching which guides our employees on driving improvements, as well as an alert system used to help monitor journey management, speed, distracted driving, seat belt use, acceleration, braking, and turning. This technology not only helps prevent accidents, but it also assists the Company in understanding what safety issues drivers face most so that our training can be tailored to be as effective as possible.

Select’s Safety Recognition Program. Our Safety Recognition Program (“SRP”) was implemented in 2016 to enhance our safety culture by driving positive recognition and rewarding proactive participation. Using a five-tier medallion system, the SRP is designed to recognize employees who demonstrate a commitment to a safe work environment and exhibit safety leadership. Once an employee is nominated by a supervisor or a member of the HSE team for a safety medallion, he or she is evaluated and awarded based on the level of safety leadership exhibited. Recipients of all five tiers of medallions are eligible to participate in the Annual SRP Event where select recipients will be eligible to win various prizes. This program highlights the high value we place on safety and incentivizes an emphasis on safety within our operations.

Select has also included a safety target, TRIR, as its Employee Health and Safety Metric in its Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility, which impacts the interest rate margin and fee margin thereunder. The TRIR threshold and target for 2023 were 1.35 and 1.01, and we outperformed the target with a TRIR of 0.44. The following chart shows TRIR and our lost time incident rate (“LTIR”) from 2015 to present:

Through these and similar initiatives, programs and training processes, our Company continues to focus on the safety of people, property, and the environment. While the above results are promising, we continue to strive to be a market leader in safety practices.

Human Capital Management

Attracting, retaining, and developing the talent needed to address current and future business needs is a key component of our human capital strategy. We invest in our workforce by offering competitive wages and benefits, working to create a strong company culture, and engaging our talent. We believe we have an industry-leading safety program, featuring a robust Safety Recognition Program, that makes our Company an attractive place to work. Our goal is to reduce turnover and increase employee retention. Through these efforts and other initiatives discussed below, we were able to maintain a low turnover rate of 14.15% for employees with a tenure of one year or more. Continued low turnover has been driven by significant improvements in our recruiting program and employee-centric initiatives that are designed to create an environment where employees can thrive long-term.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Core Values. Culture is an integral part of our operations because of its profound impact on recruitment, job satisfaction, work performance and morale and begins with our mission and core values. These core values — Accountability, Continuous Improvement, and Teamwork — are the foundation for how we accomplish our mission to deliver operational excellence and develop sustainable water and chemistry solutions every day. Our employees are asked to put our core values into action every day to improve operational excellence, safety, and the customer experience.

Drop of Excellence. To help build a strong company culture, we developed an employee recognition program to acknowledge and celebrate employees’ successes. At Select, we believe that many drops of excellence can create a wave of impact. Drop of Excellence is our highest recognition award for our employees, and the recipients of such recognition represent the best of the best across the Company. Drop of Excellence nominations are submitted by regional leadership and recognizes individuals that have made significant contributions to our success and serving our customers.

Develop Talent In-House. We recognize the importance of succession planning and the long-term benefit of improved engagement. Our Company has an online employee job portal that allows employees to apply for open positions quickly and easily within the Company, whether it be a change of location, a promotion, or a new position in a different service line. In some service lines where career progression can be easily mapped, job progression is outlined allowing an employee to visualize the path necessary to achieve job competency, mastery, and promotion. We also offer training to support the roll-out of new initiatives and skills required for growth.

Select Grant-A-Wish Program. Embracing the philosophy that employees are also to be served, rather than just managed, our Grant-A-Wish Program, established in 2020, is an employee-centric initiative that assists in crisis situations, facilitates personal growth, and improves life experiences. The program is funded by employee donations via payroll deductions with an annual company match. In 2023 there was a total of 20 wishes granted for fellow employees or their families, totaling more than $70,000. This program has helped show employees that their colleagues and the Company care about their well-being outside of the workplace.

Diversity Initiatives. Select recognizes the many benefits of having a diverse workforce and strives to provide equal employment opportunities. By fostering a culture of inclusivity, we aim to create a workplace that not only values the differences among our employees but also leverages these unique perspectives to drive innovation, creativity, and overall success. We strive for Select to be an employer of choice for talented individuals from all walks of life. Select provides employee resources such as handbooks, procedures, and training in more than one language and continually looks for ways to be more inclusive and tap into the talent of our diverse workforce.

Focus on Communication and Job Performance. In 2023, we reimagined internal communication with employes to develop a steady cadence of engagement with Select initiatives. From organizational announcements to quarterly leadership updates and employee initiatives, new communications were introduced to help employees be successful and informed in their roles. A key part of this effort was encouraging employees to align their efforts with Select’s priorities by communicating company goals and participating in individual goal setting. Performance against employees’ goals is reviewed and rated annually to support ongoing development and growth at Select.

Community Outreach

Community Relations. Select believes it must take a proactive role in creating a dialogue with landowners, communities, operators, local agencies, and state agencies in areas where oil and gas activities occur. We view each of these constituents as a partner to our Company and have identified the following areas of focus as we foster these partnerships: minimize our footprint; drive top-level performance while holding our team to a higher standard; strengthen our partnerships with landowners and customers in the areas in which we operate; minimize downtime and disruption; and cultivate long-term relationships with landowners and our customers to expedite resolution of issues in an efficient manner.

Emergency Relief Funds. When disaster strikes close to home, we do our best to assist the community in its recovery by creating a funding account and contributing man hours toward recovery efforts. For example, in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey in Houston, Texas we donated recovery funds consisting of employee donations and a company match to various organizations throughout the area and contributed countless hours of volunteer services in the recovery efforts. Additionally, following the devastating tornadoes in El Reno, Oklahoma in 2019, we organized recovery and assistance efforts for our employees impacted by these events, as well as the local community.

By contributing our time and resources, we help to build stronger communities and create a better environment for our employees, customers, and communities. Today, more than ever, our customers need solutions that meet the most rigorous operational demands while doing so in an environmentally sound manner and Select remains committed to delivering those solutions.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

The Audit Committee pre-approves all audit and non-audit services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm and pre-approved all the fees reported above. This policy is set forth in the charter of the Audit Committee, which is available under the “Corporate Governance” tab of the Investors section of our website at https://investors.selectwater.com.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Audit Committee of the Board is responsible for independent, objective oversight of the Company’s accounting functions and internal control over financial reporting. During 2023, the Audit Committee was composed of four directors, each of whom is independent as defined by the NYSE listing standards. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter approved by our Board, which is available under the “Corporate Governance” tab of the Investors section of the Company’s website at https://investors.selectwater.com.

Management is responsible for the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The independent auditor is responsible for performing an independent audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in the United States of America and issuing a report thereon. The independent auditor is also responsible for performing an independent audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The Audit Committee’s responsibility is to monitor and oversee these processes.

Grant Thornton LLP served as the Company’s independent auditor during 2023 and was appointed by the Audit Committee to serve in that capacity for 2024 (and we are seeking ratification by the Company’s stockholders at this Annual Meeting of such appointment). Grant Thornton LLP has served as the Company’s independent auditor since prior to its initial public offering in 2017.

In connection with these responsibilities, the Audit Committee met with management and the independent auditor to review and discuss the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 and management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023. The Audit Committee also discussed with the independent auditor the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”) and the SEC.

The Audit Committee also received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent auditor required by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent auditor’s communications with the audit committee concerning independence and has discussed with the independent auditor that firm’s independence.

Based upon the Audit Committee’s review and discussions with management and the independent auditor referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to our Board that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the SEC on February 22, 2024.

	PROPOSAL 3
	Non-Binding, Advisory Vote to Approve Named Executive Officer Compensation

	We are required by Section 14A of the Exchange Act to offer our stockholders an opportunity to cast an advisory, non-binding, vote on the compensation of our Named Executive Officers, as disclosed in this Proxy Statement, pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act enacted in July 2010 (commonly referred to as a “say on pay” vote). This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of Named Executive Officers and the philosophy, policies and practices described in this Proxy Statement. Although the vote is non-binding, we value constructive feedback from our stockholders on executive compensation and other important matters, and the Board and the Compensation Committee will consider the voting results when making future compensation decisions. Our Compensation Committee, which is responsible for approving (or recommending to the Board for approval) the compensation payable to the executive officers of the Company, has designed our executive compensation program to link a substantial portion of each executive’s realized compensation to the achievement of the Company’s performance objectives as well as to align realized compensation with changes in the value of stockholders’ investments. In connection with your vote on this proposal, we urge you to read the Summary Compensation Table and other related compensation tables and narratives that follow (excluding the Pay Versus Performance Table and related narratives), which provide detailed information on the compensation of our Named Executive Officers. Our Compensation Committee and our Board believe that the policies and procedures articulated in these sections of this Proxy Statement are effective in achieving our goals. In accordance with Section 14A of the Exchange Act, and as a matter of good corporate governance, we are asking stockholders to approve the compensation of our Named Executive Officers, as disclosed in this Proxy Statement. At our 2018 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, our stockholders voted to conduct the non-binding, advisory votes to approve Named Executive Officer compensation every three years. Subject to consideration of the results of Proposal 4 below, we expect the next advisory vote to approve the compensation of our Named Executive Officers to be conducted at the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Vote Required The approval of this Proposal 3 requires the affirmative vote of the majority of the shares present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions will have the effect of a vote against the proposal. Broker non-votes, if any, will have no effect on the outcome of voting on the proposal.

	Our Board recommends that you vote “FOR” the approval, on a non-binding, advisory basis, of the compensation of our Named Executive Officers

	PROPOSAL 4
	Non-Binding, Advisory Vote on the Frequency of Future Non-Binding, Advisory Votes to Approve Named Executive Officer Compensation

	Pursuant to Section 14A of the Exchange Act, we are asking our stockholders to cast an advisory vote on whether future say-on-pay votes to approve executive compensation of the nature reflected in Proposal No. 3 above should occur every 1 year, every 2 years or every 3 years (or abstain). After careful consideration, our Board has determined that holding an advisory vote on executive compensation every year is the most appropriate policy for the Company at this time, and recommends that stockholders vote for future advisory votes to approve executive compensation to occur every year. While our executive compensation programs are designed to promote the long-term alignment of pay and performance, our Board recognizes that executive compensation disclosures are made annually and believes that holding an annual advisory vote to approve executive compensation provides the Company with more direct and immediate feedback on our compensation disclosures. However, stockholders should note that because the advisory vote to approve executive compensation occurs well after the beginning of the compensation year, it may not be appropriate or feasible to change our executive compensation programs in consideration of a given year’s advisory vote on executive compensation by the time of the following year’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders. We understand that our stockholders may have different views as to what is an appropriate frequency for conducting future advisory votes to approve executive compensation, and our Board will carefully review the voting results on this proposal. Stockholders will be able to specify one of four choices for this proposal on the proxy card: 1 YEAR, 2 YEARS, 3 YEARS, or ABSTAIN. Stockholders are not voting to approve or disapprove our Board’s recommendation. Vote Required The approval of this Proposal 4 requires the affirmative vote of a plurality of the voting power of the outstanding shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the matter. This means that we will consider the stockholders to have approved the option that obtained the highest number of votes cast by the stockholders. Abstentions will have no effect on the outcome of voting on the proposal. Broker non-votes, if any, will have no effect on the outcome of voting on the proposal.

	Our Board recommends that you vote to conduct future non-binding, advisory votes to approve Named Executive Officer compensation every “1 YEAR.”

	PROPOSAL 5
	Approval of the Select Water Solutions, Inc. 2024 Equity Incentive Plan

	The Board adopted the Select Water Solutions, Inc. 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2024 Plan”) on March 25, 2024, subject to approval by the Company’s stockholders. The 2024 Plan will provide the Company with the ability to award stock-based compensation to attract, retain and motivate qualified persons to serve as its employees, directors and consultants, which compensation is designed to promote and closely align the interests of participants and the Company’s stockholders. The Board believes the 2024 Plan promotes the Company’s ability to drive performance and enhance long-term stockholder value; increases employee stock ownership; and enables the Company to engage outstanding employees and directors. If the 2024 Plan is approved by our stockholders at the Annual Meeting, it will become effective on May 8, 2024, and no further awards will be granted under (i) the Select Energy Services, Inc. 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”), (ii) the Nuverra Environmental Solutions, Inc. 2017 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “Nuverra 2017 Plan”), or (iii) the Nuverra Environmental Solutions, Inc. 2018 Restricted Stock Plan for Directors (the “Nuverra 2018 Plan” and collectively, the “Predecessor Plans”) after the effective date. If the 2024 Plan is approved by our stockholders, we intend to file a Registration Statement on Form S-8 with the SEC during the second or third quarter of 2024. Governance Best Practices The 2024 Plan incorporates a number of governance best practices: • Prohibition on Repricing: The 2024 Plan prohibits repricing of options or stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) and exchanging out-of-the-money options or SARs for other awards or cash without stockholder approval. • No Current Dividends or Dividend Equivalents: Dividends or dividend equivalent rights (“DERs”) earned as a component of another award under the 2024 Plan are subject to the same vesting and forfeiture conditions as the underlying award. • No Liberal Share Recycling on Options and SARs: The 2024 Plan prohibits liberal share recycling with respect to options and SARs. • Term and Exercise Price Limits on Options and SARs: Options and SARs granted under the 2024 Plan are subject to a maximum term of 10 years and may not be granted at a discount to the fair market value of our Class A common stock on the grant date. • Limit on Director Compensation: The 2024 Plan limits non-employee director compensation, including cash and equity to $750,000 per year. • No Automatic Single-Trigger Acceleration: In the event of a change in control, the 2024 Plan does not provide for automatic single-trigger acceleration of outstanding awards. Key Considerations As of March 22, 2024, a total of 102,916,154 shares of our Class A common stock and 16,221,101 shares of our Class B common stock were outstanding, and the fair market value of our Class A common stock was $9.14 based on the closing sale price of our Class A common stock on the New York Stock Exchange. The following table sets forth information regarding outstanding equity awards and shares available for future equity awards under the Predecessor Plans as of March 22, 2024. The Company also maintains an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) under which 2,144,406 shares of Class A common stock remain available for issuance; however, offerings thereunder have been suspended since December 1, 2022.

In evaluating the adoption of the 2024 Plan and the shares reserved thereunder, the Compensation Committee and the Board considered the dilutive impact of our equity award program, as measured by overhang and our historical burn rate. We measure our equity plan overhang as (i) the total number of shares subject to outstanding equity awards plus the total number of shares remaining available for grant under our equity plans (excluding the ESPP which was suspended in December 2022), divided by the (ii) sum of the total Class A and Class B common stock outstanding, the number of shares subject to outstanding equity awards and the total number of shares remaining available for grant under our equity plans (excluding the ESPP). As of March 22, 2024, our overhang was 6.0% excluding the impact of the 2024 Plan. If the 2024 Plan is approved, our overhang will be approximately 12.8%.

Our equity plan share usage over 2021, 2022 and 2023 represented a three-year average burn rate of 2.12%, as described below:

Members of our Board, employees (including executive officers) and other service providers of the Company or our subsidiaries are eligible to participate in the 2024 Plan. As of March 22, 2024, we had 6 non-employee directors, approximately 80 employees (including 6 executive officers) and approximately 1 other service provider that was eligible to participate in the 2024 Plan.

Under the 2024 Plan, the aggregate value of all compensation, cash and equity-based, to be granted or paid in each calendar year to each non-employee member of Board for service as a non-employee director will not exceed $750,000 in total value, with the value of any equity awards calculated based on the grant date fair value of such awards for financial reporting purposes.

Administration

The 2024 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee, or another committee designated by our Board, which we refer to in this Proposal 5 as the Committee. The Board may also act as the Committee under the 2024 Plan. The Committee has authority to select participants and make grants under the 2024 Plan, determine the terms and conditions of awards under the 2024 Plan, interpret and administer the 2024 Plan and make all other determinations and take all other actions that may be necessary or advisable to implement and administer the 2024 Plan. The Committee may delegate its authority to a subcommittee of directors or to any employee of the Company as permitted by applicable law.

Types of Awards

The 2024 Plan permits awards of restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), options, SARs, the grant of options to purchase shares of our common stock, awards of stock appreciation rights, or SARs, stock awards, other stock-based awards and cash awards.

Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units. Awards of restricted stock consist of shares of stock that are transferred to the participant subject to restrictions that may result in forfeiture if specified conditions are not satisfied. RSUs result in the transfer of cash or Class A common stock to the participant only after specified conditions are satisfied. The Committee will determine the restrictions and conditions applicable to each award of restricted stock or RSUs, which may include performance vesting conditions.

Stock Options. All stock options granted under the 2024 Plan will be evidenced by a written agreement with the participant, which provides, among other things, whether the option is intended to be an incentive

stock option (“ISO”) under Section 422 of the Code or a non-qualified stock option (“NQSO”), the number of shares subject to the option, the exercise price, exercisability (or vesting), the term of the option, which may not generally exceed 10 years, and other terms and conditions. The exercise price for each stock option granted under the 2024 Plan will be determined by the Committee at the time of the grant but may not be less than the fair market value of our Class A common stock on the date such stock option is granted. Other than in connection with a change in our capitalization, we will not, without stockholder approval, reduce the exercise price of a previously awarded option, and at any time when the exercise price of a previously awarded option is above the fair market value of a share of common stock, we will not, without stockholder approval, cancel and re-grant or exchange such option for cash or a new Award with a lower (or no) exercise price.

Stock Appreciation Rights. SARs may be granted alone or in conjunction with all or part of a stock option. Upon exercising a SAR, the participant is entitled to receive the amount by which the fair market value of the common stock at the time of exercise exceeds the exercise price of the SAR. This amount is payable in Class A common stock, cash, restricted stock, or a combination thereof, at the Committee’s discretion.

Stock Awards. A stock award entitles the recipient to shares of our Class A common stock not subject to vesting or forfeiture restrictions. Stock awards are awarded with respect to such number of shares of our Class A common stock and at such times as the Board or our Committee may determine, and the Board or our Committee may require a participant to pay a stipulated purchase price for each share of our Class A common stock covered by a stock award.

Other Stock-Based Awards. Other stock-based awards are Awards denominated in or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on or related to, the value of Class A common stock.

Cash Awards. The 2024 Plan permits the grant of cash awards on a free-standing basis or as an element of, a supplement to or in lieu of any other award on such terms as the Committee may determine.

Transferability

Except for Stock Awards, other types of awards authorized under the 2024 Plan are not transferable other than by will, by the laws of descent and distribution, pursuant to a domestic relations order, or as otherwise approved by the Committee.

Capitalization Adjustments

The 2024 Plan provides protection against substantial dilution or enlargement of the rights granted to holders of awards in the event of stock splits, recapitalizations, mergers, consolidations, reorganizations or similar transactions. The 2024 Plan provides that, upon the occurrence of a change of control event, the Committee would have discretion, without the consent of any participant or holder of an award, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to cancel awards and make payments in respect thereof in cash; replace awards with other rights or property selected by the Committee; provide that awards will be assumed by a successor or survivor entity (or a parent or subsidiary thereof) or be exchanged for similar rights or awards covering the equity of the successor or survivor (or a parent or subsidiary thereof); adjust outstanding awards as appropriate to reflect the change of control event; provide that awards are payable; and/or provide that awards terminate upon such event.

Clawback

Awards will be subject to recoupment in accordance with our clawback policy, as described on page 54, or as specified by the Committee in an award agreement.

2024 Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Amendment and Termination

The Board may amend or discontinue the 2024 Plan at any time, except that amendments which require shareholder approval will be subject to approval of our stockholders. No awards may be granted under the 2024 Plan on or after May 8, 2034.

Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a brief description of the federal income tax consequences, under existing law, with respect to awards that may be granted under the 2024 Plan. This summary is not intended to provide or supplement tax advice to eligible employees. This summary is not intended to be exhaustive and does not describe state, local or foreign consequences, employment tax consequences, or the effect, if any, of gift, estate and inheritance taxes.

Restricted Stock. For restricted stock awards, unless vested or the recipient elects under Section 83(b) of the Code to be taxed at the time of grant or purchase, the recipient will not have taxable income upon the grant but will recognize ordinary income upon vesting equal to the fair market value of the shares at the time of vesting less the amount paid for such shares (if any). Any gain or loss recognized upon any later disposition of the shares will be treated as a long-term capital gain or loss if the recipient held the shares for more than one year, and a short-term capital gain or loss if the recipient held the shares for one year or less.

Restricted Stock Units. A holder of an RSU does not recognize taxable income when the RSU is granted. When vested RSUs (and dividend equivalents, if any) are settled and distributed, the participant will recognize ordinary income equal to the amount of cash and/or the fair market value of shares received less the amount paid for such RSUs (if any).

Stock Options and SARs. A recipient of a stock option or SAR will not recognize taxable income upon the grant of those awards. For NQSOs and SARs, the participant will recognize ordinary income upon exercise in an amount equal to the difference between the fair market value of the shares and the exercise price on the date of exercise. Any gain or loss recognized upon any later disposition of the shares generally will be a capital gain or loss.

The acquisition of shares upon exercise of an ISO will not result in any taxable income to the participant, except, possibly, for purposes of the alternative minimum tax. The gain or loss recognized by the participant on a later sale or other disposition of such shares will either be long-term capital gain or loss or ordinary income, depending upon whether the participant holds the shares for the legally required period (currently more than two years from the date of grant and more than one year from the date of exercise). If the shares are not held for the legally required period, the participant will recognize ordinary income equal to the lesser of (i) the difference between the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise and the exercise price, or (ii) the difference between the sales price and the exercise price. Any additional gain recognized on the sale generally will be short-term or long-term capital gain. Different and complex rules may apply to ISOs that are early exercisable, and we encourage participants holding such any such awards to seek the advice of their own tax counsel.

Stock Awards. A recipient of a stock award will recognize ordinary income upon the receipt of shares in an amount equal to the fair market value of any shares received over the amount, if any, paid for the shares. Any gain or loss realized by the grantee upon a subsequent disposition of such unrestricted stock will be treated as a long-term capital gain or loss if the recipient held the shares for more than one year, and a short-term capital gain or loss if the recipient held the shares for one year or less.

Other Stock-Based Awards and Cash Awards. A recipient of an other stock-based award or cash award generally will recognize ordinary income upon the payment of the shares, cash or other property in an amount equal to the fair market value of the cash, Class A common stock or other property received.

Dividend Equivalent Rights. No taxable income is recognized upon receipt of a right to dividend or dividend equivalents. The recipient will recognize ordinary income in the year in which a dividend or

TABLE OF CONTENTS

distribution, whether in cash or our Class A common stock is paid to the recipient. The amount of that income will be equal to the fair market value of the cash or Class A common stock received.

Impact of Section 162(m). Section 162(m) of the Code generally disallows public companies a tax deduction for federal income tax purposes of remuneration in excess of $1 million paid to certain executive officers. While our Compensation Committee may consider the deductibility of awards as one factor in determining executive compensation, our Compensation Committee also looks at other factors in making its decisions and retains the flexibility to award compensation that it determines to be consistent with the goals of our executive compensation program even if the awards are not deductible by us for tax purposes.

New Plan Benefits

All awards are made at the discretion of the Committee. Therefore, the benefits and amounts that will be received or allocated under the 2024 Plan are not determinable, and it is not possible to predict the benefits or amount that will be received by, or allocated to, particular individuals or groups of employees. For information regarding the equity awards granted to our NEOs under the 2016 during 2023, see “2023 Grants of Plan-Based Awards” on page 59.

Features of the Assumed Plans

On February 23, 2022, the Company assumed the Assumed Plans and certain equity awards outstanding under the Assumed Plans in connection with the Nuverra acquisition. Under the Nuverra 2017 Plan, the Company may grant to certain eligible participants who were employees, directors or other service providers of Nuverra prior to the Nuverra acquisition options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock awards, dividend equivalents, other stock-based awards, cash awards, substitute awards, performance awards, or any combination of the foregoing, with respect to up to 1,772,058 shares of Nuverra common stock. Under the Nuverra 2018 Plan, the Company may grant to certain eligible participants who were directors of Nuverra prior to the Nuverra acquisition restricted stock awards with respect to up to 100,000 shares of Nuverra common stock. The shares remaining available for issuance under the Assumed Plans were converted into shares of the Company’s Class A common stock at a conversion rate of one Nuverra share to 0.2551 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock such that at the time of the Nuverra acquisition an aggregate of 131,110 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock was available for issuance with respect to assumed awards and future awards under the Nuverra 2017 Plan and an aggregate of 24,984 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock was available for issuance with respect to assumed awards and future awards under the Nuverra 2018 Plan.

The aggregate number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock available for issuance under the Assumed Plans will be reduced by one share of the Company’s Class A common stock for every one share of the Company’s Class A common stock subject to an award granted under the Assumed Plans. If any award granted under the Nuverra 2017 Plan (in whole or in part) is cancelled, forfeited, exchanged, settled in cash, or otherwise terminated, the shares of the Company’s Class A common stock subject to such award will again be available at a rate of one share of the Company’s Class A common stock for every one share of the Company’s Class A common stock subject to such award, and if any award granted under the Nuverra 2018 Plan (in whole or part) is forfeited, the shares of the Company’s Class A common stock subject to such award will again be available at a rate of one share of the Company’s Class A common stock for every one share of the Company’s Class A common stock subject to such award. The Company registered the securities issuable under the Assumed Plans by filing a registration statement on Form S-8 with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

As described above, upon approval of this Proposal 5 by our stockholders, no further awards will be granted under any of the Predecessor Plans, including the Assumed Plans.

Compensation Governance Best Practices

We follow good governance practices that our Compensation Committee believes are in the best interests of our stockholders. These practices include the following:

	WHAT WE DO			WHAT WE DO NOT DO
	✓ Emphasize at-risk pay and pay for performance			× Automatic base salary increases

	✓ All long-term incentives are impacted by changes in stock price			× Single-trigger cash payments or tax gross-ups upon a change in control
	✓ Maintain a clawback policy applicable to all NEOs			× Repricing or exchange of underwater stock options without stockholder approval

What Guides Our Compensation Structure

Compensation Philosophy

We generally reference the median of our competitive market for base salaries and target incentive opportunities, and the Compensation Committee maintains a focus on pay-for-performance and compensation in the form of equity awards to leverage the Company’s ability to attract, retain, and motivate key talent. The structure of our executive compensation program, including base pay and “at-risk” compensation (short- and long-term incentives) is intended to achieve the following objectives:

•

Align executive interests with the interests of our stockholders and our long-term strategy while discouraging undue risk taking by emphasizing long-term equity-based incentives and requiring executives to retain a significant portion of these incentives earned over time in common stock;

•

Foster a pay-for-performance culture by tying a significant portion of compensation directly to Select’s operating and financial performance and execution of strategic objectives, including annual operating performance, return on assets, and free cash flow generated over a three-year period, and linking a portion of compensation to individual performance, including accomplishment of strategic goals that align with company goals. A large percentage of target compensation is “at

risk” (84% for our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and an average of 73% for the other NEOs) and performance-related (51% for the CEO and an average of 47% for the other NEOs), as shown below:

•

Attract and retain high performing executives through competitive pay practices (including equity), considering relevant market pay for similarly situated companies in our industry and other factors; and

•

Align pay outcomes with performance in a way that is transparent and understood by all stakeholders through clear and complete disclosure of executive compensation policies and practices, including alignment of certain metrics to strategy.

The Compensation Committee regularly reviews and considers the effectiveness of the Company’s existing compensation programs and modifies such programs or develops new programs to better effectuate the Compensation Committee’s compensation objectives.

Role of the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee has ultimate responsibility for reviewing, evaluating, and approving all compensation and awards to the NEOs. The Compensation Committee on its own reviews the performance and compensation of the CEO and approves his level of compensation. The Compensation Committee may choose to gather input from the other members of the

Select Water Solutions

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Board and may engage in discussions with other persons and advisors as it deems appropriate. For the other NEOs, the Compensation Committee approves each element of compensation following its review of the recommendations made by the CEO. The Compensation Committee also annually approves a number of shares that may be granted in the form of equity-based awards under the 2016 Plan by the CEO to certain non-executive officer employees, generally based on recommendations from the Compensation Committee’s independent compensation consultant.

Role of the Chief Executive Officer. Our CEO evaluates the performance of all NEOs other than himself and makes compensation recommendations to the Compensation Committee. CEO’s recommendations are based on several factors, including individual performance evaluations, business results, and general information related to compensation at other public companies. In consultation with the CEO, the Compensation Committee has final approval over the compensation to be paid to the executive officers. Either as a director of the Company or in his role with management, the CEO is regularly invited to attend meetings of our Compensation Committee. Additionally, certain members of management may also be invited to attend selected meetings of our Board or Compensation Committee. Following each such meeting, the CEO and, if applicable, any other invited member of management, is excused from non-management executive sessions of our Board or Compensation Committee, as applicable. The CEO does not participate in the Compensation Committee’s determination of his own compensation.

Role of the Independent Compensation Consultant. Since late 2018, the Compensation Committee has received independent compensation advice and data from Pearl Meyer & Partners, LLC (“Pearl Meyer”). Pearl Meyer was directly engaged by the Compensation Committee to provide advice and information regarding:

•

Compensation philosophy and practices;

•

Peer group composition;

•

Compensation program design;

•

Short-term and long-term incentive plan administration; and

•

Competitive compensation analysis for executive officers and non-employee directors.

With respect to non-employee director compensation, Pearl Meyer reviewed the Company’s philosophy and practices regarding general Board compensation, committee compensation, committee chair compensation, and non-employee director equity award programs. In connection with these reviews, Pearl Meyer provided the Compensation Committee comparative market assessments of executive and non-employee director compensation levels, including information relative to compensation trends and prevailing practices. The Compensation Committee meets regularly in executive session with Pearl Meyer outside the presence of management.

The Compensation Committee regularly reviews the services provided by its outside consultants and, after considering all relevant factors, including the factors listed in Section 303A.05(c)(iv) of the New York Stock Exchange Listed Company Manual, believes that Pearl Meyer is independent in providing executive compensation consulting services. The Compensation Committee monitors the independence of its compensation consultant on a periodic basis. Based on these reviews and this monitoring, the Compensation Committee is not aware of any conflict of interest that has been raised by the work performed by Pearl Meyer.

Role of Market Data. Our Compensation Committee relies in part, but not exclusively, on market data from Pearl Meyer in determining appropriate levels of pay for our NEOs. Market data provided by Pearl Meyer during 2023 included data from proprietary energy industry and general industry executive compensation data sources and from our peer group. The Compensation Committee reviews the composition of our peer group on an annual basis and, after consultation with Pearl Meyer, revises the group as it deems appropriate. The information from the compensation peer group is used to help define the competitive market for executive pay in similarly situated companies in our industry for each of our NEOs, to the extent available, and information from compensation surveys more generally helps define the competitive market for executive pay for our other NEOs for which peer group information is unavailable.

2024 Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Pearl Meyer employed the following general approach when analyzing our 2022 peer group to determine if any updates should be made for 2023:

Focused the pool of potential peer companies based on the GICS industry (Energy Equipment & Services) and sub-industry (Oil & Gas Equipment & Services), direct competitors identified by management, companies identified as peers by our competitors, companies listed in various institutional investor research reports, and companies listed in shareholder advisor reports.

Looked for any potential removals due to acquisition, bankruptcy, etc.

Screened out potential additions based on a combination of the following:

•

Public companies: Eliminated privately-held companies, subsidiaries, recently acquired firms, or financially distressed companies to provide assurance that more relevant executive compensation and financial results will be disclosed.

•

Company size: Current and projected revenue, employees, market capitalization, and assets, excluding companies outside a reasonable revenue range compared to Select (approximately 1/3x to approximately 3x) as executive compensation levels are generally correlated with company financial size.

•

Financial / Operating / Business: Considered factors such as type of business, structure, geographic footprint, corporate office location, and stock price correlation to provide more appropriate performance comparisons, make pay and performance analyses more meaningful, and ensure that peers are operating in similar areas or are located in areas where direct competition for executives is more pronounced.

As a result of their review, Pearl Meyer recommended, and our Compensation Committee approved, the removal of CES Energy Solutions Corp. and Secure Energy Services Inc. as both are traded on the Canadian Stock Exchange and the United States Over-the-Counter (OTC) and Exterran Corp., in light of their acquisition by Enerflex Ltd. (EFXT), which is also trading on the Canadian Stock Exchange and OTC. Additionally, NexTier Oilfield Solutions Inc., Patterson-UTI Energy, Inc., and USA Compression Partners, LP were added in consideration of their comparable size, scope, and common peers shared, which also indicates comparable industry pay levels and practices. The following 16 peers comprised our peer group for 2023:

Archrock, Inc.	Nine Energy Services, Inc.	RPC, Inc.
Cactus, Inc.	NOW, Inc.	TETRA Technologies, Inc.
Forum Energy Technologies Inc.	Oil States International, Inc.	U.S. Silica Holdings Inc.

Say-on-Pay Vote. We have historically presented an advisory vote to approve the compensation of our NEOs (a “say-on-pay” vote) to our stockholders every three years. The last say-on-pay vote was conducted at our 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders at which we received over 98% approval. After considering the results of the 2021 say-on-pay vote, our Compensation Committee determined not to make any material changes to our 2023 executive compensation program or practices that were specifically driven by such say-on-pay vote results. At the Annual Meeting, we are asking stockholders to vote, on an advisory basis, on the frequency of future say-on-pay votes. The Board has recommended that future say-on-pay votes be held on an annual basis going forward, rather than every three years, which will allow stockholders to more regularly provide feedback regarding our executive compensation program.

2023 Executive Compensation Program

Base Salary

Each NEO’s base salary is a fixed component of compensation and does not vary depending on the level of performance achieved. Base salaries are determined for each NEO based on individual roles and responsibilities, internal equity, and positioning relative to similarly situated executives in our peer group. Our Compensation Committee reviews the base salaries for each NEO annually as well as at the time of any promotion or significant change in job responsibilities, and in connection with each review, our Compensation Committee considers individual and company performance over the course of the applicable year. During 2023, our Compensation Committee determined to increase the base salaries for Mr. Schmitz and Mr. Skarke as set forth below to better reflect market practices based on peer group and other data provided by Pearl Meyer. The increase for Mr. Schmitz reflects the restoration of the June 2020 CEO salary reduction, which Mr. Schmitz inherited at the time of his appointment and a 6.7% increase from the restored amount.

The base salary of each of our NEOs for 2023, as established by our Compensation Committee, is as follows:

NAME	BASE SALARY (AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2023)			PERCENTAGE INCREASE
John D. Schmitz		$	800,000		33.3%
Nick L. Swyka		$	360,000		—
Michael C. Skarke		$	390,000		8.3%
Christopher K. George		$	340,000		—
Cody J. Ortowski		$	365,000		—

Annual Cash Incentives

Annual cash incentives for our NEOs are provided through our Short-Term Incentive Plan (“STI Plan”) and are structured to reward achievement relative to annual financial, operational, and individual performance objectives. Our Compensation Committee reviews and approves the annual cash incentive awards for each NEO based upon performance achievements established by the Compensation Committee at the beginning of the year. Our Compensation Committee established the target 2023 annual cash incentive awards for our NEOs based on the level of responsibility and ability to impact our overall results, as well as consideration of market pay practices. Each NEO’s 2023 target annual incentive, as a percentage of each NEO’s base salary as in effect on February 22, 2023 is set forth below:

NAME	2023 TARGET ANNUAL INCENTIVE (% OF BASE SALARY)
John D. Schmitz		115%
Nick L. Swyka		80%
Michael C. Skarke		80%
Christopher K. George		80%
Cody J. Ortowski		80%

The Compensation Committee annually evaluates the appropriate performance metrics, and relative weighting of those metrics, for our STI Plan based on financial goals, operational goals, and strategic

plans for the Company. These metrics are chosen to align performance and safety throughout the Company and to emphasize stockholder value. For the 2023 annual cash incentive awards, the Compensation Committee selected the following metrics, which are based on fully consolidated Company results for each of our NEOs:

	WEIGHT			PERFORMANCE METRIC
				Adjusted EBITDA: Consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”), plus/(minus) loss/(income) from discontinued operations, plus any impairment and abandonment charges or asset write-offs, plus non-cash losses on the sale of assets or subsidiaries, non-recurring compensation expense, non-cash compensation expense, and other non-recurring or unusual expenses or charges, including severance expenses, transaction costs, or facilities-related exit and disposal-related expenditures, plus/(minus) foreign currency losses/(gains), plus/(minus) losses/(gains) on unconsolidated entities and plus tax receivable agreements expense less bargain purchase gains from business combinations.
				FCF Per Share: Calculated by dividing (i) FCF, which is calculated based on our cash flow from operations, determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) or on a non-GAAP basis consistent with our practices (as determined by our Compensation Committee), minus net capital expenditures, including the impact of asset sales in the ordinary course of business by (ii) the number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding (excluding any issuances or repurchases during the year and increased to account for any non-ordinary course debt borrowed during the year).
				Safety: Based on total recordable incident rate (“TRIR”), which is calculated as total number of recordable incidents multiplied by 200,000 divided by total number of hours worked by all employees, and lost-time injury rate (“LTIR”), which is calculated as total number of lost time incidents multiplied by 200,000 divided by total number of hours worked by all employees. If the TRIR target is achieved, the payout percentage for this metric may be increased by up to 20%.
				Environmental and Sustainability: Based on recycled water volumes, which is calculated as the volume metered and received into our water recycling facilities that is ultimately put back to beneficial reuse.
				Strategic Individual Goals: Accomplishment of strategic goals that are aligned to the overall company goals and within the NEO’s areas of responsibility

The following table sets forth threshold, target and maximum performance goals established by the Compensation Committee with respect to the company-wide adjusted EBITDA, FCF per share, safety and environmental metrics, as well as our actual achievement with respect to those performance metrics. If threshold financial performance is achieved under the STI Plan, then 50% of the target annual incentive awards will be earned by the NEOs, and if maximum financial performance is achieved under the STI Plan, then 200% of the target annual incentive awards will be earned by the NEOs. The payout percentage for safety performance ranges from 100% (threshold and target) to 120% (maximum) of the target annual incentive awards, and the payout percentage for environmental and sustainability performance ranges from 50% (threshold) to 120% (maximum).

For purposes of the STI Plan, the TRIR was adjusted at the discretion of the Compensation Committee for certain acquisition related items.

Strategic Individual Goals

In determining each NEO’s discretionary individual achievement, the Compensation Committee considered each NEO’s individual contributions to our overall performance during 2023, including successes such as individual achievements, continual development, refining, and execution of the strategic vision for the Company and overall performance of managed departments. Also included in this determination were negative factors such as our share price and delayed or partial achievement of strategic plans such as delays in the rollout of the company Enterprise Resource Planning system, which caused extra expense and use of resources.

2023 Annual Incentive Payouts

In light of the above results, the Compensation Committee approved the following payments under the STI Plan:

Long-Term Incentives

2023 Annual Grants

Our Compensation Committee reviews and approves annual equity awards for each NEO, which for 2023 were granted under the Select Energy Services, Inc. 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended, the “2016 Plan”). Our Compensation Committee uses equity awards to align the executives’ interests with those of our stockholders, retaining our high performing executives and focusing executives on those long-term financial measures that are critical to long-term Company performance. The 2023 grants were comprised 50% of time-based restricted shares that vest ratably over three years, 25% of performance share units (“PSUs”) that vest based on the Company’s relative ROA performance over a three-year performance period (the “Relative ROA PSUs”) and 25% of PSUs based on the Company’s FCF per share performance over a three-year performance period (the “FCF PSUs”). Our Compensation Committee selected relative ROA and FCF per share as the performance metrics for the PSUs because they:

[MISSING IMAGE: pc_longtermincentives-pn.jpg]

•

Encourage thorough and disciplined capital allocation decisions;

•

Provide transparency to the next level of management so that award recipients can understand how to impact the metric; and

•

Serve as tangible, communicable and critical value drivers tied to concrete financial measures aligned with stockholder value.

The value of the 2023 annual grants to our NEOs for 2023 are set forth below, which may differ slightly from the grant date fair values reported under “2023 Executive Compensation Tables — 2023 Grants of Plan-Based Awards” below as a result of rounding. The target annual equity awards for 2023 were unchanged from 2022 targets.

Relative ROA PSUs

The Relative ROA PSUs will become earned based on our return on assets over the three-year performance period beginning January 1, 2023 and ending December 31, 2025, as compared to the following peer companies (the “Performance Peer Group”):

Select Water Solutions

TABLE OF CONTENTS

• Cactus, Inc.	• Nine Energy Service Inc.	• ProPetro Holding Corp.
• Liberty Oilfield Services Inc.	• Oil States International, Inc.	• Ranger Energy Services, Inc.
• Newpark Resources Inc.	• Patterson UTI Energy, Inc.	• RPC, Inc.
• NexTier Oilfield Solutions Inc.*	• ProFrac Holding Corp.	• TETRA Technologies Inc.

NexTier Oilfield Solutions Inc. was subsequently removed from the Performance Peer Group for the 2023 Relative ROA PSUs following its acquisition on September 1, 2023, and the payout scale described below has been adjusted accordingly.

ROA is calculated by dividing Adjusted Net Income by Net Assets. For the Company, Adjusted Net Income is calculated by multiplying 0.79 by our adjusted earnings before tax (calculated as Adjusted EBITDA (defined as described under “— Annual Cash Incentives” above) minus Depreciation and Amortization and Interest Expense) and Net Assets is calculated based on our average net property and equipment, plus our average total current assets, less our current liabilities. For each member of the Performance Peer Group, Adjusted Net Income is calculated by multiplying 0.79 by the company’s adjusted earnings before tax (calculated as Adjusted EBITDA minus Depreciation and Amortization and Interest Expense), in each case, adjusted in a manner consistent with the adjustments determined by the Compensation Committee and included in the determination of the Company’s Adjusted Net Income.

Achievement under the Relative ROA at the end of the three-year performance period is determined based on the following scale, as adjusted for the removal of NexTier Oilfield Solutions Inc. from the Performance Peer Group:

LEVEL OF ACHIEVEMENT	PEER GROUP RANKING	RELATIVE ROA PSUS EARNED (% OF TARGET)
Below Threshold	Outside of Top 9	0%
Threshold	Top 9	55%
Target	Top 6	110%
Maximum	Top 3	175%

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Relative ROA PSUs provide that in the event our total shareholder return over the performance period is negative, no Relative ROA PSUs will be earned, regardless of the Company’s ranking among the Performance Peer Group.

FCF PSUs

The FCF PSUs will become earned based on our FCF per share over the three-year performance period beginning January 1, 2023 and ending December 31, 2025.

FCF is calculated based on our cash flow from operations, determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) or on a non-GAAP basis consistent with our practices (as determined by our Compensation Committee), minus net capital expenditures, including the impact of asset sales in the ordinary course of business. As used below, “FCF Performance Percentage” means the percentage obtained by dividing (i) the sum of the FCF per share by (ii) the sum of the annual target for each calendar year of the performance period.

LEVEL OF ACHIEVEMENT	FCF PERFORMANCE PERCENTAGE	FCF PSUS EARNED (% OF TARGET)
Below Threshold	Less than 70%	0%
Threshold	70%	50%
Target	100%	100%
Maximum	130%	175%

TABLE OF CONTENTS

FCF per share is calculated consistent with the methodology described under “— Annual Cash Incentives” above.

Results of the 2021-2023 PSUs

During 2021, each of our NEO received grants of Relative ROA PSUs and FCF PSUs with a three-year performance period ending December 31, 2023. The terms of these PSUs were substantially similar to the PSUs granted in 2023, as described above.

With respect to the Relative ROA PSUs, our ROA of 6.4% ranked 6 out of the 13 members of the performance peer group (adjusted to remove a member of the performance peer group that was acquired prior to December 31, 2023) and our total shareholder return over the performance period was 90.2%. As a result of the positive TSR and relative ROA ranking over the three year period, the target PSUs earned equals 110% of the target award.

Under the FCF PSUs, the following table sets forth the target FCF per share for each year during the performance period, the actual FCF per share achieved for each year, and the resulting FCF Performance Percentage, which resulted in 0% of the target FCF PSUs becoming earned, as determined by our Compensation Committee.

Other Compensation Elements

Employment Agreements. In May 2023, we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Schmitz, which provides for an initial term ending December 31, 2025, with automatic renewals for successive one-year periods unless either party provides at least 60 days advance written notice of non-renewal. The employment agreement with Mr. Schmitz provides for an annualized base salary of $800,000, a target annual incentive of 115% of his base salary and eligibility to receive annual equity awards. We also maintain employment agreements with Messrs. Swyka and Skarke which provide for an initial term of three years, with automatic renewals for successive one-year periods unless either party provides at least 60 days advance written notice of non-renewal.

The employment agreements contain certain restrictive covenants, including provisions that prohibit, with certain limitations, the NEO from competing with the Company and its affiliates, soliciting any of the Company’s or its affiliates’ customers, or soliciting or hiring any of the Company’s or its affiliates’ employees or inducing them to terminate their employment with the Company and its affiliates. These restrictions will generally apply during the term of the NEO’s employment with the Company and for one year following the termination date. The employment agreements each provide for severance payments and benefits upon certain qualifying terminations of employment, as described below under “2023 Executive Compensation Tables — Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control.”

Benefit Plans. We offer participation in broad-based retirement, health and welfare plans to all our employees. We currently maintain a plan intended to provide benefits under section 401(k) of the Code (the “401(k) Plan”), where employees are allowed to contribute portions of their base compensation into a retirement account in order to encourage all employees, including any participating NEO, to save for the future. During 2023, the 401(k) Plan provided a matching contribution in an amount up to 4% of a

participant’s eligible compensation. We have not maintained and do not currently maintain a defined benefit pension plan or nonqualified deferred compensation plan.

Other Compensation-Related Guidelines and
Policies

Clawback Policy

In 2023, we adopted the Select Water Solutions, Inc. Clawback Policy, which is intended to comply with the requirements of NYSE Listing Standard 303A.14 implementing Exchange Act Rule 10D-1. In the event we are required to prepare an accounting restatement of our financial statements due to material non-compliance with any financial reporting requirement under the federal securities laws or that corrects an error that is not material to previously issued financial statements, but would result in a material misstatement if the error were corrected in the current period or left uncorrected in the current period, we will recover the excess incentive-based compensation received by any covered executive officer, including the NEOs, during the prior three fiscal years that exceeds the amount that the executive otherwise would have received had the incentive-based compensation been determined based on the restated amounts.

Stock Ownership and Retention Guidelines

We maintain stock ownership and retention guidelines for all executive officers and directors of the Company. The guidelines are determined by using a multiple of the executive officer’s annual base salary or the non-employee director’s base annual retainer and converting it into a fixed number of shares. The minimum levels of stock ownership, reflecting recent increases in the minimum ownership guidelines for Executive Vice Presidents, Senior Vice Presidents, and Non-Employee Directors in early 2024, are outlined below:

	TITLE			OWNERSHIP GUIDELINE
	Chief Executive Officer			5x annual base salary
	Chief Financial Officer			3x annual base salary
	Executive Vice President			3x annual base salary
	Senior Vice President			3x annual base salary
	Chief Accounting Officer			1.5x annual base salary
	Non-Employee Director			5x base annual retainer

Stock ownership levels must be achieved by the later of five years after the initial adoption of the guidelines or five years after the individual’s first appointment as an executive officer or non-employee director. Following any change in title or change in base salary of any executive officer, the corresponding ownership guideline for such person shall be revised accordingly. The executive officer must achieve the new stock ownership level within five years of the effective date of such change in title or base salary. Executive officers must retain all net shares received until the stock ownership guideline is attained unless approval is received from the Board of Directors.

Shares owned director or indirectly (including, for non-employee directors, shares directly owned by entities, or their affiliates, which are the primary employers of such non-employee directors) by the executive officer or non-employee director and time-vesting restricted shares are counted towards satisfaction of the guidelines. Unexercised stock options and unearned performance-based awards are not counted.

2024 Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

All executive officers and Non-Employee Directors subject to these guidelines have satisfied the minimum ownership level or are on track to satisfy the guideline by the end of the five-year compliance period.

Anti-Hedging Policy

Because hedging transactions can present the appearance of a bet against the Company, hedging or monetization transactions, whether direct or indirect, involving any of the Company’s securities are completely prohibited with respect to all directors, officers, other employees, and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries. In particular, “short sales” (sales of securities that the seller either does not own at the time of the sale or will not be delivered within 20 days of the sale) are prohibited under the Company’s Insider Trading Policy.

Our Insider Trading Policy applies to all directors, officers, other employees and certain contractors and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries, and generally prohibits all transactions involving Company-based derivative securities, other than holding, exercising, or settling awards such as options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, or other derivative securities granted under a Company equity incentive plan or other substantially similar or related compensation-related transactions as otherwise expressly permitted by the Policy.

In addition, purchasing the Company’s common stock on margin (for example, borrowing money from a brokerage firm or other third party to fund the stock purchase) is strictly prohibited by the Insider Trading Policy, and pledging Company securities as collateral for a loan requires pre-approval from the Audit Committee.

Risk Management

The Compensation Committee has reviewed our compensation policies as generally applicable to our employees and believes that our policies do not encourage excessive and unnecessary risk-taking, and that the level of risk that they do encourage is not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. Our management team regularly assesses the risks arising from our compensation policies and practices by reviewing and discussing the design features, characteristics, performance metrics at the company and segment levels and approval mechanisms of total compensation for all employees, including salaries, incentive plans, and equity-based compensation awards, to determine whether any of these policies or programs could create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Our compensation philosophy and culture support the use of base salary, performance-based compensation, and benefits that are generally uniform in design and operation throughout our organization and across similarly-situated levels of employees. In addition, the following specific factors applicable to senior management, in particular, reduce the likelihood of excessive risk-taking:

•

Our compensation mix is balanced among (i) fixed components like salary and benefits, (ii) annual incentives that reward our overall short-term financial performance, business unit financial performance, operational measures, and individual performance, and (iii) a portfolio approach for equity-based awards, primarily consisting of ratable vesting and cliff vesting, each over a three-year period.

•

An important portion of our executive compensation is tied to how our stock price performs over a period of multiple years, with equity-based awards generally vesting over a three-year period. This minimizes the benefit of a temporary spike in stock price.

•

The Compensation Committee has discretion to reduce performance-based awards when it determines that such adjustments would be appropriate based on our interests and the interests of our stockholders.

•

Executive officers are subject to certain holding requirements and our Insider Trading Policy.

Select Water Solutions

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Although a significant portion of the compensation provided to NEOs is performance-based, these programs are designed to encourage employees to remain focused on both our short- and long-term operational and financial goals that are reasonable in light of our past performance and market conditions. A portion of the variable compensation we provide is comprised of long-term incentives in the form of time-based restricted shares, which retain value even in a depressed market, so executives are less likely to take unreasonable risks.

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control

Award Agreements with Mr. Schmitz

Schmitz 2021 Annual Restricted Share Award. Pursuant to the applicable award agreements by and between the Company and Mr. Schmitz under the 2016 Plan, in the event that Mr. Schmitz’s employment is terminated by the Company without “Cause” or by Mr. Schmitz for “Good Reason,” or due to Mr. Schmitz’s death or “Disability,” and provided that Mr. Schmitz timely signs (and does not revoke) a release in favor of the Company and its affiliates, the portion of his 2021 restricted shares that corresponds with the other NEOs’ annual 2021 restricted share awards that is unvested would immediately accelerate and vest. For the avoidance of doubt, Mr. Schmitz’s PSUs are subject to the terms described below under “Equity Incentive Plan Awards — Performance Share Units,” and the restricted shares granted to Mr. Schmitz during 2022 and 2023 are subject to the terms described below under “Equity Incentive Plan Awards — Restricted Shares.”

As used in the applicable award agreement, “Cause” and “Disability” generally have the same meanings set forth below under “— Equity Incentive Plan Awards” and “Good Reason” has the same meaning as under Mr. Schmitz employment agreement set forth below under “— Employment Agreements.”

2021 Schmitz Special RSA. In connection with Mr. Schmitz’s appointment as our President and Chief Executive Officer, the Company granted him a one-time special award of restricted shares under the 2016 Plan (the “2021 Schmitz Special RSA”). In the event that Mr. Schmitz’ employment is terminated by the Company without “Cause” or by Mr. Schmitz for “Good Reason,” Mr. Schmitz will be entitled to vest in a pro rata portion (based on the number of days in which Mr. Schmitz was employed during the vesting period) of the 2021 Schmitz Special RSA immediately upon such termination of employment; provided, however, in the event the average daily trading price of the Company’s Class A common stock exceeds $12.50 for 90 consecutive trading days (the “Stock Price Condition”) during Mr. Schmitz’s period of employment with the Company, and Mr. Schmitz’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or by Mr. Schmitz for Good Reason, Mr. Schmitz will be entitled to vest in 100% of the 2021 Schmitz Special RSA upon such termination without pro ration.

As used in Mr. Schmitz’s 2021 Schmitz Special RSA award agreement, “Cause” and “Good Reason” generally have the same meanings as in his 2021 annual restricted share award agreement described above.

Employment Agreements

Mr. Schmitz. The employment agreement with Mr. Schmitz provides that if his employment is terminated by the Company without “Cause”, upon expiration of the initial term or a renewal term as a result of the Company’s issuance of a notice of non-renewal, by Mr. Schmitz for “Good Reason” or due to his death or “Disability”, then, subject to execution and non-revocation of a release of claims, Mr. Schmitz will be entitled to receive the following benefits:

•

Severance payment in an amount equal to two times (or three times if the termination occurs within 60 days prior to or within 24 months after the occurrence of a “Change in Control”) the sum of (i) his annualized base salary and (ii) his target bonus under the STI Plan for the year in which the termination occurs, payable in installments over 24 months (or 36 months if such termination occurs within 60 days prior to or within 24 months after the occurrence of a Change in Control);

•

Lump sum payment of an amount equal to a prorated portion of his bonus under the STI Plan for the calendar year in which his termination occurs, if any, as determined in accordance with the performance criteria established under the STI Plan, payable at the same time such bonuses are paid to active executive officers;

Lump sum payment of his earned but unpaid bonus under the STI Plan for the calendar year prior to the year in which his termination occurs, if any, payable at the same time such bonuses are paid to active executive officers; and

If Mr. Schmitz elects continuation coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”), monthly reimbursement for up to 18 months for group health plan continuation coverage premiums.

The employment agreement provides that, in the event any payments to Mr. Schmitz constitute excess parachute payments within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, payments under the employment agreement will be reduced or paid, whichever produces the better net after-tax position for Mr. Schmitz.

As used in Mr. Schmitz’s employment agreement:

•

“Cause” generally means Mr. Schmitz’s (i) gross negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of his duties; (ii) material breach of any material provision of any Company policy or code of conduct; (iii) willful engagement in conduct that is materially injurious to the Company; or (iv) conviction of or plea of nolo contendre to, or adjusted probation or deferred adjudication received in connection with, any felony involving fraud, dishonesty or moral turpitude.

“Good Reason” generally means (i) a material diminution in the NEO’s base salary (other than a reduction of 25% or less that applies to all executive officers) or (ii) Mr. Schmitz ceasing to be Chief Executive Officer, in each case, subject to notice and cure periods.

Mr. Swyka and Mr. Skarke. The employment agreements with Mr. Swyka and Mr. Skarke provide that if the NEO’s employment is terminated prior to the expiration of the term by the NEO for “Good Reason,” by the Company without “Cause” (and not as a result of the NEO’s disability), or as a result of the NEO’s death, then, subject to execution and non-revocation of a release of claims, the NEO will be entitled to receive the following benefits:

•

Severance payment in an amount equal to the sum of (i) 12 months (or 18 months if the termination occurs on or within 15 months after the occurrence of a “Change in Control”) of his annualized base salary at the time of the NEO’s termination and (ii) one times (or 1.5 times if the termination occurs on or within 15 months after the occurrence of a Change in Control) the target bonus under the STI Plan for the year in which the termination occurs, payable in installments over 12 months (or 18 months if such termination is on or within 15 months after the occurrence of a Change in Control);

•

Lump sum payment of an amount equal to a prorated portion of the NEO’s bonus under the STI Plan for the calendar year in which his termination occurs, if any, as determined in accordance with the performance criteria established under the STI Plan, payable at the same time such bonuses are paid to active executive officers; and

•

If the NEO elects continuation coverage under COBRA, monthly reimbursement for up to 15 months in an amount equal to the difference between the group health plan continuation coverage premiums and the amount that active, similarly situated employees of the Company pay for similar coverage.

The employment agreements provide that, in the event any payments to Mr. Swyka or Mr. Skarke constitute excess parachute payments within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, payments under the employment agreement will be reduced or paid, whichever produces the better net after-tax position for the NEO.

misconduct, breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, theft or embezzlement, (iv) commission of, or conviction or indictment of him for, or plea of nolo contendre by him to, any felony or crime involving moral turpitude, or (v) failure to perform his obligations or follow any lawful directive from the Company, subject to a notice and cure provision.

Equity Incentive Plan Awards

Performance Share Units. Upon a termination of an NEO’s employment as a result of (i) a termination by the Company without “Cause,” (ii) a resignation for “Good Reason,” or (iii) such NEO’s death or “Disability,” the service requirement with respect to the PSUs shall be deemed to be satisfied, and such PSUs shall remain outstanding and subject to actual performance through the end of the applicable performance period. Upon an NEO’s “Retirement,” the service requirement with respect to a prorated portion of the NEO’s target PSUs shall be deemed to be satisfied, and such prorated portion shall remain outstanding and subject to actual performance through the end of the applicable performance period.

Upon a “Change in Control,” a prorated portion of the target PSUs held by the NEOs will become earned to the extent the performance goal has been achieved as of the Change in Control date assuming the performance period ended on the date of such Change in Control. The remaining prorated portion of the target PSUs shall remain outstanding following such Change in Control; provided that, if the Company does not continue following such Change in Control, the surviving, continuing, or purchasing entity shall provide for a replacement or substitute award on substantially similar terms to the PSUs.

Restricted Shares. The unvested restricted shares held by our NEOs (other than as described above for Mr. Schmitz) will become fully vested if the NEO’s employment is terminated as a result of such NEO’s death or Disability. Upon an NEO’s Retirement, a prorated portion of the unvested restricted shares will become vested. Additionally, if the NEO is terminated by the Company without Cause or resigns for Good Reason within the two-year period following a Change in Control, the unvested restricted shares will become fully vested. In addition to these accelerated vesting provisions, restricted shares granted to the NEOs in 2022 and 2023 will immediately become vested upon termination of an NEO’s employment by the Company without Cause so long as such termination of employment or other service relationship occurs on or after the first anniversary of the date of grant.

As used in the foregoing equity incentive plan awards:

liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company. For purposes of the PSUs, a Change in Control must also constitute a “change in control event” under Section 409A of the Code.

The foregoing description is not intended to be a comprehensive summary of the individual NEO agreements or equity incentive plan awards and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreements, which are on file with the SEC. The following table sets forth the payments and benefits that would be received by each NEO in the event of a termination of employment or a change in control of the Company had occurred on December 31, 2023.

A qualifying termination generally includes a termination without Cause or a resignation for Good Reason; provided, however, that with respect to the restricted shares granted in 2022 and 2023, a qualifying termination is limited to a termination without Cause.

(2)

A qualifying termination during the CIC Protection Period generally includes a termination without Cause or a resignation for Good Reason during (i) with respect to the benefits under Mr. Schmitz’s employment agreement, the period beginning 60 days prior and ending 24 months after a Change in Control; (ii) with respect to the benefits under Mr. Swyka’s and Mr. Skarke’s employment agreements, the 15-month period following a Change in Control; and (iii) with respect to outstanding restricted shares (other than the restricted shares granted to Mr. Schmitz during 2021), the two-year period following a Change in Control. The CIC Protection Period does not apply to Mr. Schmitz’s 2021 restricted shares, but he would receive the same benefits upon a qualifying termination with or without a Change in Control per the terms of the applicable award agreements governing his equity awards.

These amounts are calculated by multiplying the number of PSUs that would become earned upon a change in control by $7.59, the closing price of our Class A common stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on December 29, 2023, the last trading day of 2023. The amounts provided herein are calculated based on actual performance through December 31, 2023, but the actual number of PSUs that would become earned upon a Change in Control would be determined based on performance as of the date of the Change in Control. For purposes of this column, the 2022 FCF PSUs would have reached threshold performance, the 2022 Relative ROA PSUs would have reached target performance, the 2023 FCF PSUs would have reached target performance and the 2023 Relative ROA PSUs would have reached target performance.

(4)

These amounts are calculated based on the pro-rated portion of the actual 2023 bonus earned by the NEO under the STI Plan; however, because we have assumed that the termination of employment occurred on December 31, 2023, this reflects the full amount of the actual 2023 bonus under the STI Plan for such NEO.

(5)

The COBRA reimbursement amounts are based on premiums and elections as of December 31, 2023, which are assumed for purposes of this table to remain the same throughout the applicable reimbursement period.

These amounts are calculated by multiplying the number of restricted shares that vest upon the applicable termination of employment by $7.59, the closing price of our Class A common stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on December 29, 2023.

(7)

These amounts are calculated by multiplying the number of PSUs for which the service requirement would be deemed satisfied as of the date of the applicable termination of employment by $7.59, the closing price of our Class A common stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on December 29, 2023. The amounts provided herein are calculated based on actual performance through December 31, 2023, but the actual number of PSUs that would become earned would be determined based on performance as of the end of the applicable performance period. For purposes of these amounts, as of December 31, 2023, the 2022 FCF PSUs would have reached threshold performance, the 2022 Relative ROA PSUs would have reached target performance, the 2023 FCF PSUs would have reached target performance and the 2023 Relative ROA PSUs would have reached

PAY VERSUS PERFORMANCE

As required by Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, the Company is providing the following information regarding the relationship between executive compensation and the Company’s financial performance for each of the four years in the period ended December 31, 2023. In accordance with the applicable SEC rules, the adjustments described and quantified below were made to the values reported in the Summary Compensation Table for each applicable year to determine the “actual” compensation paid to our principal executive officers (“PEOs”) and the average “actual” compensation paid to our other NEOs.

The following table summarizes compensation values reported in the Summary Compensation Table for our PEO and the average for our other NEOs, as compared to “compensation actually paid” or “CAP” and the Company’s financial performance for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, 2021, and 2020:

Mr. Schmitz was appointed as Chief Executive Officer effective January 3, 2021. Ms. Ladhani’s employment and service relationship with the Company terminated on January 3, 2021. The following individuals served as our PEOs for the following years:

2023 & 2022: John Schmitz
2021: John Schmitz, Holli Ladhani
2020: Holli Ladhani

In accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, the Company deducted from and added to the Summary Compensation Table total compensation the following amounts to calculate compensation actually paid for our PEO and average compensation actually paid for our Non-PEO NEOs in each respective year. As the NEOs do not participate in any defined benefit plans, no pension value was reported in the Summary Compensation Table total and thus no adjustments were required for pension service cost. There are no material differences between the assumptions used to compute the valuation of the equity awards for calculating the compensation actually paid from the assumptions used to compute the valuation of such equity awards as of the grant date.

Total Shareholder Return (TSR) is calculated by dividing (a) the sum of (i) the cumulative amount of dividends for the measurement period, assuming dividend reinvestment, and (ii) the difference between the Company’s share price at the end of each fiscal year shown and the beginning of the measurement period, and the beginning of the measurement period by (b) the Company’s share price at the beginning of the measurement period. The beginning of the measurement period for each year in the table is December 31, 2019.

The peer group is comprised of the companies in the PHLX Oil Service Index. The Pay Versus Performance disclosure in our 2023 proxy statement included mathematical calculation in the peer group TSR disclosed for 2020, 2021, and 2022, which have been corrected in this column.

The amounts in this column represent the amount of net income reflected in the Company’s audited financial statements for the applicable year. The Pay Versus Performance disclosure in our 2023 proxy statement inadvertently reported net income attributable to Select rather than overall net income for 2020, 2021, and 2022. The amounts in this column have been adjusted to reflect the Company’s net income for such years.

(7)

The amounts in this column represent the amount of Adjusted EBITDA, which is calculated as consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”), plus/(minus) loss/(income) from discontinued operations, plus any impairment and abandonment charges or asset write-offs, plus non-cash losses on the sale of assets or subsidiaries, non-recurring compensation expense, non-cash compensation expense, and non-recurring or unusual expenses or charges, including severance expenses, transaction costs, or facilities-related exit and disposal-related expenditures, plus/(minus) foreign currency losses/(gains), plus/(minus) losses/(gains) on unconsolidated entities and plus tax receivable agreements expense less bargain purchase gains from business combinations.

CEO PAY RATIO

Our CEO had annual total compensation for 2023 of $4,389,506, as reflected in the 2023 Summary Compensation Table (“CEO Compensation”). We estimate that the annual total compensation of the median compensated of all employees of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries as of December 31, 2023 (the “Determination Date”), excluding our CEO, was $81,921, which amount comprises all applicable elements of compensation for 2023 in accordance with Item 402(c)(2)(x) of Regulation S-K (the “Median Annual Compensation”). The ratio of the CEO Compensation to the Median Annual Compensation was approximately 54:1.

To identify the employee who received the Median Annual Compensation (the “Median Employee”), we measured annual base pay (consisting of regular base earnings and overtime) based on payroll records for 4,282 employees, representing all full-time, part-time, seasonal, temporary and contract employees (whose compensation is determined by the Company) of the Company, excluding our CEO, and our consolidated subsidiaries as of the Determination Date. In determining the Median Employee, we did not annualize compensation for employees who worked less than all of 2023.

The SEC’s rules for identifying the median compensated employee and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee’s annual total compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions, and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their employee populations and compensation practices. As a result, the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported above, as other companies have different employee populations and compensation practices and may utilize different methodologies, exclusions, estimates and assumptions in calculating their own pay ratios.

TRANSACTIONS

Policies and Procedures for Review of Related Person Transactions

A “Related Party Transaction” is a transaction, arrangement, or relationship in which we or any of our subsidiaries was, is or will be a participant, the amount of which involved exceeds $120,000, and in which any related person had, has, or will have a direct or indirect material interest. A “Related Person” means:

•

any person who is, or at any time during the applicable period was, one of our executive officers or one of our directors;

•

any person who is known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our Class A common stock;

•

any immediate family member of any of the foregoing persons, which means any family relationships, of first cousins or closer, among the Company’s directors and executive officers, by blood, marriage or adoption, including child, stepchild, parent, stepparent, spouse, sibling, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law or sister-in-law of a director, executive officer or a beneficial owner of more than 5% of our Class A common stock, and any person (other than a tenant or employee) sharing the household of such director, executive officer or beneficial owner of more than 5% of our Class A common stock; and

•

any firm, corporation, or other entity in which any of the foregoing persons is a partner or principal or in a similar position or in which such person has a substantial ownership interest or control of the entity.

Our Board adopted a written related party transactions policy prior to the completion of our initial public offering in 2017. Pursuant to this policy, our Audit Committee will review all material facts of all Related Party Transactions and either approve or disapprove entry into the Related Party Transaction, subject to certain limited exceptions. In determining whether to approve or disapprove entry into a Related Party Transaction, our Audit Committee shall consider, among other factors, the following: (i) whether the Related Party Transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third-party under the same or similar circumstances; and (ii) the extent of the Related Person’s interest in the transaction. Further, the policy will require that all Related Party Transactions required to be disclosed in our filings with the SEC be so disclosed in accordance with applicable laws, rules, and regulations.

SEC Holdings LLC Agreement

Exchange Rights. Each holder of SES Holdings LLC Units (other than us and our subsidiaries) holds one share of our Class B common stock for each SES Holdings LLC Unit held by such holder. Subject to certain limitations, pursuant to the Eighth Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of SES Holdings, as amended from time to time (the “SES Holdings LLC Agreement”), holders of SES Holdings LLC Units other than us and our subsidiaries have the right (the “Exchange Right”) to exchange such holder’s SES Holdings LLC Units for, at SES Holdings’ election, (i) shares of our Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis, subject to conversion rate adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends,

reclassification and other similar transactions, or (ii) cash in an amount equal to the Cash Election Value (as defined below) of such Class A common stock. Alternatively, upon any exercise of any Exchange Right, we (instead of SES Holdings) will have the right (our “Call Right”) to acquire the tendered SES Holdings LLC Units from the exchanging unitholder for, at our election, (i) the number of shares of our Class A common stock the exchanging unitholder would have received pursuant to the Exchange Right, or (ii) cash in an amount equal to the Cash Election Value. In connection with any exchange of SES Holdings LLC Units pursuant to an Exchange Right or our Call Right, the corresponding number of shares of Class B common stock will be cancelled. As holders exchange their SES Holdings LLC Units, our membership interest in SES Holdings will be correspondingly increased, the number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding will be increased, and the number of shares of Class B common stock outstanding will be reduced.

“Cash Election Value” means, with respect to the shares of Class A common stock to be delivered to the exchanging unitholder by us pursuant to our Call Right, (i) if our Class A common stock is then admitted to trading on a national securities exchange, the amount that would be received if the number of shares of Class A common stock to which the exchanging unitholder would otherwise be entitled were sold at a per share price equal to the trailing 10-day volume weighted average price of a share of Class A common stock the day prior to the relevant exchange notice date, net of actual or deemed offering expenses, or (ii) if our Class A common stock is not then admitted to trading on a national securities exchange, the value that would be obtained in an arm’s length transaction for cash between an informed and willing buyer and an informed and willing seller, neither of whom is under any compulsion to purchase or sell, respectively, and without regard to the particular circumstances of the buyer and the seller, as determined by us, net of deemed offering expenses.

We are required to pay any stamp or other similar tax in respect of any issuance of our securities upon the exercise of the Exchange Right or our Call Right, except for transfer taxes in the event such securities are to be issued in a name other than that of the exchanging unitholder.

Tax Receivable Agreements

In connection with the closing of our December 2016 private placement of 16,100,000 shares of our Class A-1 common stock at $20.00 per share (the “Select 144A Offering”), the Company entered into two Tax Receivable Agreements with certain affiliates of Legacy Owner Holdco, Crestview GP, and Crestview Holdings B (the “TRA Holders”). The payment obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreements are our obligations and not obligations of SES Holdings, and we expect that the payments we will be required to make under the Tax Receivable Agreements will be substantial.

In connection with the closing of the Select 144A Offering, we entered into two Tax Receivable Agreements with the TRA Holders. On July 18, 2017, our Board approved amendments to each of the Tax Receivable Agreements, which revised the definition of “change of control” for purposes of the Tax Receivable Agreements and acknowledged that the Rockwater Merger would not result in a change of control.

The first of the Tax Receivable Agreements, which the Company entered into with Legacy Owner Holdco and Crestview GP, generally provides for the payment by the Company to such TRA Holders of 85% of the net cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise tax that the Company actually realizes (computed using simplifying assumptions to address the impact of state and local taxes) or is deemed to realize in certain circumstances in periods after the Select 144A Offering as a result of, as applicable to each such TRA Holder, (i) certain increases in tax basis that occur as a result of the Company’s acquisition (or deemed acquisition for U.S. federal income tax purposes) of all or a portion of such TRA Holder’s SES Holdings LLC Units in connection with the Select 144A Offering or pursuant to the exercise of the Exchange Right or the Call Right and (ii) imputed interest deemed to be paid by the Company as a result of, and additional tax basis arising from, any payments made under such Tax Receivable Agreement.

2024 Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The second of the Tax Receivable Agreements, which the Company entered into with certain of the existing owners of outstanding membership interests in SES Holdings prior to the Select 144A Offering and related reorganization who received shares of our Class A common stock in exchange for their SES Holdings LLC Units received in connection with the restructuring transactions completed in connection with the Select 144A Offering (the “Contributing Legacy Owners”), generally provides for the payment by the Company to such TRA Holders of 85% of the net cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise tax that the Company actually realizes (computed using simplifying assumptions to address the impact of state and local taxes) or is deemed to realize in certain circumstances in periods after the Select 144A Offering as a result of, as applicable to each such TRA Holder, (i) any net operating losses available to the Company as a result of certain reorganization transactions entered into in connection with the Select 144A Offering and (ii) imputed interest deemed to be paid by the Company as a result of any payments made under such Tax Receivable Agreement. Under both Tax Receivable Agreements, the Company will retain the benefit of the remaining 15% of these cash savings.

The Tax Receivable Agreements, as amended, are filed as an exhibit to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed on February 21, 2024, and the foregoing descriptions of the Tax Receivable Agreements are qualified by reference thereto. Future unitholders may become party to one or more tax receivable agreements entered into in connection with future acquisitions by SES Holdings.

Registration Rights Agreement for the Benefit of the Registration Rights Holders

On December 20, 2016, we entered into a registration rights agreement with the Contributing Legacy Owners and Legacy Owner Holdco. In connection with the execution of the merger agreement in connection with the Rockwater Merger, we entered into an amended and restated registration rights agreement with Legacy Owner Holdco, Crestview Holdings B, the SCF Group and WDC Aggregate LLC (collectively, the “Registration Rights Holders”), which, effective as of the closing of the Rockwater Merger, amends and restates the December 20, 2016 registration rights agreement. Pursuant to such agreement, among other things, (i) we will provide the rights for the Registration Rights Holders to participate in certain future underwritten public offerings of our Class A common stock, (ii) certain Registration Rights Holders will have the right to initiate an underwritten offering of our Class A common stock and (iii) the Registration Rights Holders will have certain customary “piggyback” registration rights, in each case subject to certain conditions. We will not be required to effect (x) more than five demand registrations delivered in the aggregate, (y) more than two demand registrations delivered by the Registration Rights Holders in any 12-month period or (z) a demand registration within 100 days of the pricing of a previous demand registration or a primary offering of our Class A common stock.

At any time, a party to the registration rights agreement will have the right to require us by written notice to demand registration of its registrable shares. Our obligations under this agreement include short-form, long-form and shelf registration statements, subject to certain restrictions as to number of demands, timing, and value of sales to be registered or shares to be sold in an underwritten offering.

If, at any time, we propose to register or conduct an underwritten offering of our securities (subject to certain exceptions) for our own account or for the account of any stockholder other than the parties to our registration rights agreement entered in connection with the Select 144A Offering or their permitted transferees, then we must give notice to the parties to the registration rights agreement or their permitted transferees to allow them to participate, or piggyback, in that registration statement or offering. In addition, any party to the registration rights agreement shall have the right to piggyback in any registration statement or offering effected at the request of any other party to the registration rights agreement.

The registration rights granted to the parties to the registration rights agreement may be freely assigned, including to their transferees.

(1)

For each stockholder, in accordance with Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, this percentage is determined by assuming the named stockholder exercises all options, warrants and other instruments pursuant to which the stockholder has the right to acquire shares of our common stock within 60 days, but that no other person exercises any options, warrants or other purchase rights (except with respect to the calculation of the beneficial ownership of all directors and executive officers as a group, for which the percentage assumes that all directors and executive officers exercise any options, warrants or other purchase rights).

(2)

Represents percentage of voting power of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock voting together as a single class. Each holder of limited liability company units in SES Holdings (each, an “SES Holdings LLC Unit”) will hold one share of Class B common stock for each SES Holdings LLC Unit that it owns. Each share of Class B common stock has no economic rights, but entitles the holder thereof to one vote.

(3)

Subject to the terms of the SES Holdings LLC Agreement (as defined below), SES Legacy Holdings, LLC (“Legacy Owner Holdco”) (or its members) (and its permitted transferees, including certain members of Legacy Owner Holdco, under the SES Holdings LLC Agreement) has the right to exchange all or a portion of its SES Holdings LLC Units (together with the surrender for cancellation of a corresponding number of shares of Class B common stock) for Class A common stock at an exchange ratio of one share of Class A common stock for each SES Holdings LLC Unit exchanged. The exchange of all the outstanding SES Holdings LLC Units (together with the surrender for cancellation of all of our outstanding shares of Class B common stock) for shares of Class A common stock would result in the issuance of an additional 16,221,101 shares of Class A common stock. See “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions — SES Holdings LLC Agreement.” Pursuant to Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, a person has beneficial ownership of a security as to which that person, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares voting power and/or investment power of such security and as to which that person has the right to acquire beneficial ownership of such security within 60 days. The Company has the option to deliver cash in lieu of shares of Class A common stock upon the exercise by Legacy Owner Holdco (or any transferee) of its Exchange Right (as defined below). As a result, beneficial ownership of Class B common stock and SES Holdings LLC Units is not reflected as beneficial ownership of shares of our Class A common stock for which such units and stock may be exchanged. The address for SES Legacy Holdings, LLC is c/o Select Energy Services, Inc., 1233 W. Loop South, Suite 1400, Houston, Texas 77027.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING

INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROXY PROCESS AND VOTING

WHAT IS A PROXY AND WHAT IS A PROXY STATEMENT?

A proxy is your legal designation of another person to vote the shares you own. That other person is called a proxy. If you designate someone as your proxy, the document in which you make that designation also is called a proxy. This document is a proxy statement. It is a document that we are required by law to provide to you when we ask you to name a proxy to vote your shares. We encourage you to read this Proxy Statement carefully.

SOLICITATION OF PROXIES

The Board is furnishing this Proxy Statement to you in connection with the solicitation of proxies by our Board and the solicitation of voting instructions, in each case for use at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on May 8, 2024, and at any adjournments or postponements thereof. We will pay for the cost of preparing, assembling, printing, and mailing this Proxy Statement and the accompanying proxy card, and the cost of soliciting proxies relating to the Annual Meeting. Some banks and brokers have customers who beneficially own common stock listed of record in the names of nominees. We intend to request banks and brokers to solicit such customers and will reimburse them for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for such solicitations. If any additional solicitation of the holders of our outstanding shares of common stock is deemed necessary, we anticipate making such solicitation directly. The solicitation of proxies may be supplemented by telephone, telegram and personal solicitation by officers, directors, and other employees of the Company, but no additional compensation will be paid to such individuals.

WHY DID I RECEIVE A NOTICE OF INTERNET AVAILABILITY OF PROXY MATERIALS INSTEAD OF A PAPER COPY OF THE PROXY MATERIALS?

The rules of the SEC permit us to furnish proxy materials over the Internet. As a result, we are mailing to most of our stockholders a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials instead of a paper copy of our proxy materials. All stockholders receiving the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials will have the ability to access our proxy materials over the Internet and, if desired, to request to receive a paper copy of our proxy materials by mail. Instructions on how to access our proxy materials over the Internet or to request a paper copy may be found in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials. In addition, the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials contains instructions on how you may elect to receive future proxy materials electronically on an ongoing basis.

WHY DIDN’T I RECEIVE A NOTICE IN THE MAIL ABOUT THE INTERNET AVAILABILITY OF THE PROXY MATERIALS?

We are providing paper copies of our proxy materials instead of a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials to our stockholders who have previously requested to receive paper copies of our proxy materials. In addition, we are providing notice of the availability of our proxy materials by e-mail to our stockholders who have previously elected to receive proxy materials electronically. Those stockholders should have received an e-mail containing instructions and links to the website where our proxy materials are available and to the proxy voting website.

Select Water Solutions

TABLE OF CONTENTS

HOW CAN I ACCESS THE PROXY MATERIALS OVER THE INTERNET?

Your Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or proxy/voting instruction card contains instructions on how to (1) view our proxy materials for the Annual Meeting over the Internet and (2) elect to receive future proxy materials electronically by e-mail. Our proxy materials also are available on our website at https://investors.selectwater.com.

Electing to receive future proxy materials electronically will help us conserve natural resources and reduce the cost of delivering our proxy materials. If you elect to receive future proxy materials electronically, you will receive an e-mail containing instructions and links to the website where our proxy materials are available and to the proxy voting website. Your election to receive proxy materials electronically by e-mail will remain in effect until you terminate it.

HOW MAY I OBTAIN A PAPER COPY OF THE PROXY MATERIALS?

If you receive a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials by mail, you will find instructions about how to obtain a paper copy of our proxy materials on the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials. If you receive notice of the availability of our proxy materials by e-mail, you will find instructions about how to obtain a paper copy of our proxy materials included in that e-mail. Stockholders who do not receive a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or an e-mail regarding the availability of our proxy materials will receive a paper copy of our Annual Report, Proxy Statement and proxy card by mail.

WHAT IS A RECORD DATE AND WHO IS ENTITLED TO VOTE AT THE MEETING?

A record date is the date, as of the close of business on which, stockholders of record are entitled to notice of and to vote at a meeting of stockholders. The record date for the Annual Meeting is March 11, 2024 and was established by our Board as required under the laws of Delaware, our state of incorporation. Thus, owners of record of shares of Select Water Solutions’ Class A common stock and Class B common stock (collectively, the “common stock”) as of the close of business on March 11, 2024 are entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting and at any adjournments or postponements thereof.

HOW MANY SHARES CAN BE VOTED AND WHAT IS A QUORUM?

You are entitled to one vote for each share of Select Water Solutions’ common stock that you owned as of the close of business on March 11, 2024, the Record Date, and you may vote all of those shares. Only our common stock has voting rights. On the record date, there were 118,936,872 shares of our common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, including 102,715,771 shares of Class A common stock and 16,221,101 shares of Class B common stock, and approximately 156 holders of record and approximately 13,945 beneficial owners holding shares in “street name.”

A quorum is the minimum number of shares that must be represented in person or by proxy for us to conduct the Annual Meeting. The attendance in person or by proxy of holders of a majority of the shares of common stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, or 118,936,872 shares of our common stock based on the record date of March 11, 2024, will constitute a quorum to hold the Annual Meeting. If you grant your proxy over the Internet, by telephone or by your proxy/voting instruction card, your shares will be considered present at the Annual Meeting and counted toward the quorum.

WHAT DIFFERENT METHODS CAN I USE TO VOTE MY SHARES?

You have a choice of voting your shares:

•

Over the Internet

•

By telephone

•

By mail

•

In person at the Annual Meeting

the instructions vary depending on how you own your shares and the method you use to vote your shares, it is important that you follow the instructions that apply to your situation.

If you vote your shares over the Internet or by telephone,
you should not return a proxy/voting instruction card.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A STOCKHOLDER OF RECORD AND A BENEFICIAL OWNER OF SHARES HELD IN STREET NAME?

Stockholder of Record. If your shares are registered directly in your name with the Company’s transfer agent, Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, Inc., you are considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares, and the proxy materials were sent directly to you by the Company.

Beneficial Owner of Shares Held in Street Name. If your shares are held in an account at a broker, bank, broker-dealer, custodian, or other similar organization, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name,” and the proxy materials were forwarded to you by that organization. The organization holding your account is considered the stockholder of record for purposes of voting during the Annual Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to instruct that organization on how to vote the shares held in your account, but you must follow the “vote instruction form” that organization has provided to you to vote or attend the Annual Meeting.

HOW DO I VOTE MY SHARES IF I AM A “STOCKHOLDER OF RECORD” (SHARES REGISTERED IN MY NAME)?

Voting over the Internet. Voting over the Internet is easy, fast, and available 24 hours a day. If you receive a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials by mail, you may submit your proxy/voting instruction over the Internet by following the instructions on the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials. If you receive notice of the availability of our proxy materials by e-mail, you may submit your proxy/voting instruction over the Internet by following the instructions included in that e-mail. If you receive a proxy/voting instruction card by mail, you may submit your proxy/voting instruction over the Internet by following the instructions on the proxy/voting instruction card. You will be able to confirm that the Internet voting system has properly recorded your vote, which will be counted immediately, and there is no need to return a proxy/voting instruction card.

Voting by telephone. Voting by telephone also is easy, fast, and available 24 hours a day. If you live in the United States or Canada, you may vote by telephone by calling toll-free 1-800-690-6903. If you receive a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials by mail, you must have the control number that appears on the notice when voting. If you receive notice of the availability of our proxy materials by e-mail, you must have the control number included in that e-mail when voting. If you receive a proxy/voting instruction card by mail, you must have the control number that appears on the proxy/voting instruction card when voting. You will be able to confirm that the telephone voting system has properly recorded your vote, which will be counted immediately, and there is no need to return a proxy/voting instruction card.

Voting by mail. You can save us expense by voting over the Internet or by telephone. Alternatively, if you received a proxy/voting instruction card by mail, you may vote by mail by completing, signing, dating, and promptly mailing your proxy/voting instruction card in the accompanying postage-paid return envelope.

Voting in person at the meeting. If you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, you can vote in person. To vote in person at the Annual Meeting, you will need to bring with you to present at the Annual Meeting evidence of your share ownership and a valid, government-issued photo identification, such as a driver’s license or passport.

HOW DO I VOTE MY SHARES IF I AM A “BENEFICIAL OWNER” (SHARES HELD IN “STREET NAME”)?

Voting over the Internet, by telephone or by mail. If your shares are registered or held in the name of your broker, bank, or other nominee (“street name”), you have the right to direct your broker, bank, or other nominee on how to vote your shares by using the method specified by your broker, bank, or other nominee.

Select Water Solutions

TABLE OF CONTENTS

In addition to voting by mail, most brokerage firms and banks participate in Internet or telephone voting programs. These programs provide eligible “street name” stockholders the opportunity to vote over the Internet or by telephone. Voting forms will provide instructions for stockholders whose brokerage firms or banks participate in these programs.

Voting in person at the meeting. If your shares are registered or held in the name of your broker, bank, or other nominee and you plan to attend the Annual Meeting to vote in person, you should contact your broker, bank, or other nominee to obtain a broker’s proxy, or legal proxy, and bring it with you to the Annual Meeting, together with a valid, government-issued photo identification, such as a driver’s license or passport, and your account statement or other evidence of your share ownership.

CAN I CHANGE MY VOTE AFTER I HAVE VOTED?

You may revoke your proxy and change your vote at any time before the final vote at the Annual Meeting. You may vote again by signing and returning a new proxy card or vote instruction form with a later date or by submitting a later vote electronically or via phone or, if you are a stockholder of record, by attending the Annual Meeting. Attending the Annual Meeting will not automatically revoke your proxy unless you vote again during the Annual Meeting or specifically request that your prior proxy be revoked by sending a written notice of revocation prior to the Annual Meeting to the attention of the Company’s Corporate Secretary at 1233 West Loop South, Suite 1400, Houston, Texas 77027.

Please note, however, that if your shares are held of record by a broker, bank, broker-dealer, custodian, or other similar organization, you must instruct your broker, bank, broker-dealer, custodian, or other similar organization that you wish to change your vote by following the procedures on the voting instruction form provided to you by such organization.

WHAT MATTERS WILL BE VOTED UPON AT THE ANNUAL MEETING, AND WHAT VOTES ARE REQUIRED TO APPROVE EACH OF THE PROPOSALS?

The required vote for each of the proposals expected to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting and the treatment of abstentions and broker non-votes under each proposal are described below:

•

Proposal No. 1 — Election of directors. The election of directors requires the affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes cast by stockholders present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. Neither withhold votes nor broker non-votes will have any effect on the outcome of voting on director elections.

•

Proposal No. 2. — Ratification of appointment of independent registered public accounting firm. The approval of the proposal to ratify the selection of Grant Thornton LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm requires the affirmative vote of the majority of the shares of common stock present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions will have the effect of a vote against the proposal. Broker non-votes, if any, will have no effect on the outcome of voting on the proposal.

•

Proposal No. 3. — Approval, on a non-binding, advisory basis, of the compensation of our Named Executive Officers. The approval, on a non-binding, advisory basis, of the compensation of our Named Executive Officers requires the affirmative vote of the majority of the shares of common stock present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions will have the effect of a vote against the proposal. Broker non-votes, if any, will have no effect on the outcome of voting on the proposal.

•

Proposal No. 4. — Non-binding, advisory vote on the frequency of future non-binding, advisory votes to approve Named Executive Officer compensation. The vote on the frequency of future non-binding, advisory votes to approve Named Executive Officer compensation requires the affirmative vote of a plurality of the voting power of the outstanding shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the matter. Abstentions will have no effect on the outcome of voting on the proposal. Broker non-votes, if any, will have no effect on the outcome of voting on the proposal.

2024 Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•

Proposal No. 5. — Approval of the 2024 Plan. The approval of the 2024 Plan requires the affirmative vote of the majority of the shares of common stock present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions will have the effect of a vote against the proposal. Broker non-votes, if any, will have no effect on the outcome of voting on the proposal.

WHAT HAPPENS IF I DO NOT INDICATE HOW TO VOTE MY PROXY?

If you sign your proxy card without providing further instructions, your shares will be voted in accordance with our Board’s recommendations, as described under “HOW DOES THE BOARD RECOMMEND THAT I VOTE MY SHARES?” below.

For any other matters that may properly come before the Annual Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof, the persons named as proxies in your proxy card will vote upon them in accordance with their best judgment.

HOW WILL MY SHARES BE VOTED IF I DO NOT PROVIDE INSTRUCTIONS TO MY BROKER?

Brokers holding shares must vote according to specific instructions they receive from the beneficial owners of those shares. If brokers do not receive specific instructions, brokers may in some cases vote the shares in their discretion, but are not permitted to vote on certain proposals and may elect not vote on any of the proposals unless you provide voting instructions. Voting your shares will help to ensure that your interests are represented at the meeting. If you do not provide voting instructions, and the broker elects to vote your shares on some but not all matters, it will result in a ‘broker non-vote’ for the matters on which the broker does not vote. Broker non-votes will be considered as present for quorum purposes. Abstentions occur when you provide voting instructions but instruct your broker to abstain from voting on a particular matter.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN IF I RECEIVE MORE THAN ONE NOTICE OF INTERNET AVAILABILITY OF PROXY MATERIALS OR MORE THAN ONE PROXY/VOTING INSTRUCTION CARD?

If you receive more than one Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or more than one proxy/voting instruction card, you own shares of Select Water Solutions’ common stock in multiple accounts with your brokers(s) and/or our transfer agent. Please vote all of these shares. We recommend that you contact your broker(s) and/or our transfer agent to consolidate as many accounts as possible under the same name and address. Our transfer agent is Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, Inc., which may be reached by telephone at 1-720-378-5591, by e-mail at [email protected] or over the Internet at https://www.shareholder.broadridge.com.

HOW DOES THE BOARD RECOMMEND THAT I VOTE MY SHARES?

A proxy that is properly completed and returned will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the instructions on the proxy. If you properly complete and return a proxy, but do not provide any voting instructions, your shares will be voted in accordance with the Board’s recommendations. The Board’s recommendations can be found with the description of each proposal in this Proxy Statement. In summary, the Board recommends a vote:

•

Proposal 1 — “FOR” the election of the seven director nominees named in this Proxy Statement to hold office until our 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders or until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified;

•

Proposal 2 — “FOR” the ratification of the appointment, by the Audit Committee of the Board, of Grant Thornton LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024;

If a proposal comes up for vote during the Annual Meeting that is not on the proxy card, the representatives you have appointed as proxies will vote your shares, under your proxy, according to their best judgment.

The proxy card accompanying this Proxy Statement confers discretionary authority upon the named proxy holders with respect to amendments or variations to the matters identified in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting and with respect to any other matters which may properly come before the Annual Meeting.

(d) Limitation of Liability. The Committee and each member thereof shall be entitled to, in good faith, rely or act upon any report or other information furnished to him or her by any officer or employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates, the Company’s legal counsel, independent auditors, consultants or any other agents assisting in the administration of the Plan.

For purposes of the Plan, all references to foreign laws, rules, regulations or taxes shall be references to the laws, rules, regulations and taxes of any applicable jurisdiction other than the United States or a political subdivision thereof.

(c) Availability of Shares Not Delivered Under Awards. If all or any portion of an Award expires or is cancelled, forfeited, exchanged, settled in cash or otherwise terminated, the shares of Stock subject to such Award shall, to the extent of any such cancellation, become available for issuance under the Plan; provided, however, that shares of Stock subject to Awards of Options or SARs that are withheld or surrendered to the Company in payment of any exercise or purchase price or taxes shall not become available for issuance under the Plan.

(b) Options. The Committee is authorized to grant Options, which may be designated as either ISOs or Nonstatutory Options, to Eligible Persons on the following terms and conditions:

(i) Exercise Price. Each Award Agreement evidencing an Option shall state the exercise price per share of Stock (the “Exercise Price”) established by the Committee; provided, however, that except as provided in Section 6(j) or in Section 8, the Exercise Price of an Option shall not be less than the greater of (A) the par value per share of the Stock or (B) 100% of the Fair Market Value per share of the Stock as of the date of grant of the Option (or in the case of an ISO granted to an individual who owns stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or its parent or any of its subsidiaries, 110% of the Fair Market Value per share of the Stock on the date of grant). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Exercise Price of a Nonstatutory Option may be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per share of Stock as of the date of grant of the Option if the Option (1) does not provide for a deferral of compensation by reason of satisfying the short-term deferral exception set forth in the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules or (2) provides for a deferral of compensation and is compliant with the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules.

The Committee shall determine the methods by which the Exercise Price may be paid or deemed to be paid, the form of such payment, including cash or cash equivalents, Stock (including previously owned shares or through a cashless exercise, i.e., “net settlement,” a broker-assisted exercise, or other reduction of the amount of shares otherwise issuable pursuant to the Option), other Awards or awards granted under other plans of the Company or any Affiliate, other property, or any other legal consideration the Committee deems appropriate (including notes or other contractual obligations of Participants to make payment on a deferred basis), the methods by or forms in which Stock will be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Participants, including the delivery of Restricted Stock subject to Section 6(d), and any other terms and conditions of any Option. In the case of an exercise whereby the Exercise Price is paid with Stock, such Stock shall be valued based on the Stock’s Fair Market Value as of the date of exercise. No Option may be exercisable for a period of more than ten years following the date of grant of the Option (or in the case of an ISO granted to an individual who owns stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or its parent or any of its subsidiaries, for a period of more than five years following the date of grant of the ISO).

(iii) ISOs. The terms of any ISO granted under the Plan shall comply in all respects with the provisions of Section 422 of the Code. ISOs may only be granted to Eligible Persons who are employees of the Company or employees of a parent or any subsidiary corporation of the Company. Except as otherwise provided in Section 8, no term of the Plan relating to ISOs (including any SAR in tandem therewith) shall be interpreted, amended or altered, nor shall any discretion or authority granted under the Plan be exercised, so as to disqualify either the Plan or any ISO under Section 422 of the Code, unless the Participant has first requested the change that will result in such disqualification. ISOs shall not be granted more than ten years after the earlier of the adoption of the Plan or the approval of the Plan by the Company’s stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of shares of Stock subject to an ISO and the aggregate Fair Market Value of shares of stock of any parent or subsidiary corporation (within the meaning of Sections 424(e) and (f) of the Code) subject to any other incentive stock options of the Company or a parent or subsidiary corporation (within the meaning of Sections 424(e) and (f) of the Code) that are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year exceeds $100,000, or such other amount as may be prescribed under Section 422 of the Code, such excess shall be treated as Nonstatutory Options in accordance with the Code. As used in the previous sentence, Fair Market Value shall be determined as of the date the ISO is granted. If a Participant shall make any disposition of shares of Stock issued pursuant to an ISO under the circumstances described in Section 421(b) of the Code (relating to disqualifying dispositions), the Participant shall notify the Company of such disposition within 20 days thereof.

(i) Right to Payment. An SAR is a right to receive, upon exercise thereof, the excess of (A) the Fair Market Value of one share of Stock on the date of exercise over (B) the grant price of the SAR as determined by the Committee.

(ii) Grant Price. Each Award Agreement evidencing an SAR shall state the grant price per share of Stock established by the Committee; provided, however, that except as provided in Section 6(j) or in Section 8, the grant price per share of Stock subject to an SAR shall not be less than the greater of (A) the par value per share of the Stock or (B) 100% of the Fair Market Value per share of the Stock as of the date of grant of the SAR. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the grant price of an SAR may be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per share of Stock subject to an SAR as of the date of grant of the SAR if the SAR (1) does not provide for a deferral of compensation by reason of satisfying the short-term deferral exception set forth in the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules or (2) provides for a deferral of compensation and is compliant with the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules.

(iii) Method of Exercise and Settlement; Other Terms. The Committee shall determine the form of consideration payable upon settlement, the method by or forms in which Stock (if any) will be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Participants, and any other terms and conditions of any SAR. SARs may be either free-standing or granted in tandem with other Awards. No SAR may be exercisable for a period of more than ten years following the date of grant of the SAR.

(iv) Rights Related to Options. An SAR granted in connection with an Option shall entitle a Participant, upon exercise, to surrender that Option or any portion thereof, to the extent unexercised, and to receive payment of an amount determined by multiplying (A) the difference obtained by subtracting the Exercise Price with respect to a share of Stock specified in the related Option from the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of exercise of the SAR, by (B) the number of shares as to which that SAR has been exercised. The Option shall then cease to be exercisable to the extent surrendered. SARs granted in connection with an Option shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Award Agreement governing the Option, which shall provide that the SAR is exercisable only at such time or times and only to the extent that the related Option is exercisable and shall not be transferable except to the extent that the related Option is transferrable.

(d) Restricted Stock. The Committee is authorized to grant Restricted Stock to Eligible Persons on the following terms and conditions:

(i) Restrictions. Restricted Stock shall be subject to such restrictions on transferability, risk of forfeiture and other restrictions, if any, as the Committee may impose. Except as provided in Section 7(a)(iii). and Section 7(a)(iv)., during the restricted period applicable to the Restricted Stock, the Restricted Stock may not be sold, transferred, pledged, hedged, hypothecated, margined or otherwise encumbered by the Participant.

(ii) Dividends and Splits. The Committee may determine that cash dividends paid on a share of Restricted Stock be automatically reinvested in additional shares of Restricted Stock or accrued in a bookkeeping account without interest. However, cash dividends and Stock distributed in connection with a Stock split or Stock dividend, and other property (other than cash) distributed as a dividend, shall be subject to restrictions and a risk of forfeiture to the same extent as the Restricted Stock with respect to which such cash, Stock or other property has been distributed.

(e) Restricted Stock Units. The Committee is authorized to grant Restricted Stock Units to Eligible Persons on the following terms and conditions:

(i) Restrictions. Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to such restrictions (which may include a risk of forfeiture) as the Committee may impose.

(ii) Settlement. Settlement of vested Restricted Stock Units shall occur upon vesting or upon expiration of the deferral period specified for such Restricted Stock Units by the Committee (or, if permitted by the Committee, as elected by the Participant). Restricted Stock Units shall be settled by delivery of (A) a number of shares of Stock equal to the number of Restricted Stock Units for which settlement is due, or (B) cash in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the specified number of shares of Stock equal to the number of Restricted Stock Units for which settlement is due, or a combination thereof, as determined by the Committee at the date of grant or thereafter.

(f) Stock Awards. The Committee is authorized to grant Stock Awards to Eligible Persons as a bonus, as additional compensation, or in lieu of cash compensation any such Eligible Person is otherwise entitled to receive, in such amounts and subject to such other terms as the Committee in its discretion determines to be appropriate.

(g) Dividend Equivalents. The Committee is authorized to grant Dividend Equivalents to Eligible Persons, entitling any such Eligible Person to receive cash, Stock, other Awards, or other property equal in value to dividends or other distributions paid with respect to a specified number of shares of Stock. Dividend Equivalents may be awarded on a free-standing basis or in connection with another

A-8

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Award (other than an Award of Restricted Stock or a Stock Award). The Committee may provide that Dividend Equivalents be deemed to be reinvested in additional Stock, Awards, or other investment vehicles or accrued in a bookkeeping account without interest, and subject to such restrictions on transferability and risks of forfeiture, as the Committee may specify. With respect to Dividend Equivalents granted in connection with another Award, such Dividend Equivalents shall be subject to the same restrictions and risk of forfeiture as the Award with respect to which the dividends accrue and shall not be paid unless and until such Award has vested and been earned.

(h) Other Stock-Based Awards. The Committee is authorized, subject to limitations under applicable law, to grant to Eligible Persons such other Awards that may be denominated or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on, or related to, Stock, as deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purposes of the Plan, including convertible or exchangeable debt securities, other rights convertible or exchangeable into Stock, purchase rights for Stock, Awards with value and payment contingent upon performance of the Company or any other factors designated by the Committee, and Awards valued by reference to the book value of Stock or the value of securities of, or the performance of, specified Affiliates of the Company. The Committee shall determine the terms and conditions of such Other Stock-Based Awards. Stock delivered pursuant to an Other Stock-Based Award in the nature of a purchase right granted under this Section 6(h) shall be purchased for such consideration, paid for at such times, by such methods, and in such forms, including cash, Stock, other Awards, or other property, as the Committee shall determine. Any dividends or other distributions with respect to Stock underlying any Other Stock-Based Award shall be subject to any restrictions or risk of forfeiture to the same extent as the Other Stock-Based Award to which such dividends or distributions relate.

(i) Cash Awards. The Committee is authorized to grant Cash Awards, on a free-standing basis or as an element of, a supplement to, or in lieu of any other Award under the Plan to Eligible Persons in such amounts and subject to such other terms as the Committee in its discretion determines to be appropriate.

(j) Substitute Awards; No Repricing. Awards may be granted in substitution or exchange for any other Award granted under the Plan or under another plan of the Company or an Affiliate or any other right of a person to receive payment from the Company or an Affiliate. Awards may also be granted under the Plan in substitution for awards held by individuals who become Eligible Persons as a result of a merger, consolidation or acquisition of another entity or the assets of another entity by or with the Company or an Affiliate. Such Substitute Awards referred to in the immediately preceding sentence that are Options or SARs may have an Exercise Price that is less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of the substitution if such substitution complies with the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules and other applicable laws and exchange rules. Except as provided in this Section 6(j) or in Section 8, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company, the terms of outstanding Awards may not be amended to (i) reduce the Exercise Price or grant price of an outstanding Option or SAR, (ii) grant a new Option, SAR or other Award in substitution for, or upon the cancellation of, any previously granted Option or SAR that has the effect of reducing the Exercise Price or grant price thereof, (iii) exchange any Option or SAR for Stock, cash or other consideration when the Exercise Price or grant price per share of Stock under such Option or SAR exceeds the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock or (iv) take any other action that would be considered a “repricing” of an Option or SAR under the applicable listing standards of the national securities exchange on which the Stock is listed (if any).

(k) Performance Awards. The Committee is authorized to designate any of the Awards granted under the foregoing provisions of this Section 6 as Performance Awards. The Committee may use such business criteria and other measures of performance as it may deem appropriate in establishing any performance goals applicable to a Performance Award, and may exercise its discretion to reduce or increase the amounts payable under any Performance Award. Performance goals may differ among Performance Awards granted to any one Participant or to different Participants. The performance period applicable to any Performance Award shall be set by the Committee in its discretion but shall not exceed ten years.

7. Certain Provisions Applicable to Awards.

(a) Limit on Transfer of Awards.

(i) Except as provided in Sections 7(a)(iii) and (iv), each Option and SAR shall be exercisable only by the Participant during the Participant’s lifetime, or by the person to whom the Participant’s rights shall pass by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7(a), an ISO shall not be transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

(ii) Except as provided in Sections 7(a)(i), (iii) and (iv), no Award, other than a Stock Award, and no right under any such Award, may be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by a Participant and any such purported assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance shall be void and unenforceable against the Company or any Affiliate.

(iii) To the extent specifically provided by the Committee, an Award may be transferred by a Participant without consideration to immediate family members or related family trusts, limited partnerships or similar entities or on such terms and conditions as the Committee may from time to time establish.

(iv) An Award may be transferred pursuant to a domestic relations order entered or approved by a court of competent jurisdiction upon delivery to the Company of a written request for such transfer and a certified copy of such order.

(b) Form and Timing of Payment Under Awards; Deferrals. Subject to the terms of the Plan and any applicable Award Agreement, payments to be made by the Company or any of its Affiliates upon the exercise or settlement of an Award may be made in such forms as the Committee shall determine in its discretion, including cash, Stock, other Awards or other property, and may be made in a single payment or transfer, in installments, or on a deferred basis (which may be required by the Committee or permitted at the election of the Participant on terms and conditions established by the Committee); provided, however, that any such deferred or installment payments will be set forth in the Award Agreement. Payments may include, without limitation, provisions for the payment or crediting of reasonable interest on installment or deferred payments or the grant or crediting of Dividend Equivalents or other amounts in respect of installment or deferred payments denominated in Stock.

(c) Evidencing Stock. The Stock or other securities of the Company delivered pursuant to an Award may be evidenced in any manner deemed appropriate by the Committee in its sole discretion, including in the form of a certificate issued in the name of the Participant or by book entry, electronic or otherwise and shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the Plan or the rules, regulations, and other requirements of the SEC, any stock exchange, if any, on which the Stock or other securities are then listed, and any applicable federal, state or other laws, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be inscribed on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions. Further, if certificates representing Restricted Stock are registered in the name of the Participant, the Company may retain physical possession of the certificates and may require that the Participant deliver a stock power to the Company, endorsed in blank, related to the Restricted Stock.

(d) Consideration for Grants. Awards may be granted for such consideration, including services, as the Committee shall determine, but shall not be granted for less than the minimum lawful consideration.

(e) Additional Agreements. Each Eligible Person to whom an Award is granted under the Plan may be required to agree in writing, as a condition to the grant of such Award or otherwise, to subject an Award that is exercised or settled following such Eligible Person’s termination of employment or service to a general release of claims and/or a noncompetition or other restricted covenant agreement in favor of the Company and its Affiliates, with the terms and conditions of such agreement(s) to be determined in good faith by the Committee.

8. Subdivision or Consolidation; Recapitalization; Change in Control; Reorganization.

(a) Existence of Plans and Awards. The existence of the Plan and the Awards granted hereunder shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company, the Board or the stockholders of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the Company’s capital structure or its business, any merger or consolidation of the Company, any issue of debt or equity securities ahead of or affecting Stock or the rights thereof, the dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of all or any part of its assets or business or any other corporate act or proceeding.

(b) Additional Issuances. Except as expressly provided herein, the issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, including upon conversion of shares or obligations of the Company convertible into such shares or other securities, and in any case whether or not for fair value, shall not affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number of shares of Stock subject to Awards theretofore granted or the purchase price per share of Stock, if applicable.

(c) Subdivision or Consolidation of Shares. The terms of an Award and the share limitations under the Plan shall be subject to adjustment by the Committee from time to time, in accordance with the following provisions:

(i) If at any time, or from time to time, the Company shall subdivide as a whole (by reclassification, by a Stock split, by the issuance of a distribution on Stock payable in Stock, or otherwise) the number of shares of Stock then-outstanding into a greater number of shares of Stock or in the event the Company distributes an extraordinary cash dividend, then, as appropriate (A) the maximum number of shares of Stock available for delivery with respect to Awards provided in Section 4 shall be increased proportionately, and the kind of shares or other securities available for the Plan shall be appropriately adjusted, (B) the number of shares of Stock (or other kind of shares or securities) that may be acquired under any then-outstanding Award shall be increased proportionately, and (C) the price (including the Exercise Price or grant price) for each share of Stock (or other kind of shares or securities) subject to then-outstanding Awards shall be reduced proportionately, without changing the aggregate purchase price or value as to which outstanding Awards remain exercisable or subject to restrictions; provided, however, that in the case of an extraordinary cash dividend that is not an Adjustment Event (as defined below), the adjustment to the number of shares of Stock and the Exercise Price or grant price, as applicable, with respect to an outstanding Option or SAR may be made in such other manner as the Committee may determine that is permitted pursuant to applicable tax and other laws, rules and regulations.

(ii) If at any time, or from time to time, the Company shall consolidate as a whole (by reclassification, by reverse Stock split, or otherwise) the number of shares of Stock then-outstanding into a lesser number of shares of Stock, then, as appropriate (A) the maximum number of shares of Stock available for delivery with respect to Awards provided in Section 4 shall be decreased proportionately, and the kind of shares or other securities available for the Plan shall be appropriately adjusted, (B) the number of shares of Stock (or other kind of shares or securities) that may be acquired under any then-outstanding Award shall be decreased proportionately, and (C) the price (including the Exercise Price or grant price) for each share of Stock (or other kind of shares or securities) subject to then-outstanding Awards shall be increased proportionately, without changing the aggregate purchase price or value as to which outstanding Awards remain exercisable or subject to restrictions.

(d) Recapitalization. In the event of any change in the capital structure or business of the Company or other corporate transaction or event that would be considered an “equity restructuring” within the meaning of ASC Topic 718 and, in each case, that would result in an additional compensation expense to the Company pursuant to the provisions of ASC Topic 718, if adjustments to Awards with respect to such event were discretionary or otherwise not required (each such an event, an “Adjustment Event”), then the Committee shall equitably adjust (i) the aggregate number or kind of shares that thereafter may be delivered under the Plan, (ii) the number or kind of shares or other property (including cash) subject to an Award, (iii) the terms and conditions of Awards, including

2024 Proxy Statement

A-11

TABLE OF CONTENTS

the purchase price or Exercise Price of Awards and performance goals, as applicable, and (iv) the applicable limitations with respect to Awards provided in Section 4 and Section 5 (other than cash limits) to equitably reflect such Adjustment Event (“Equitable Adjustments”). In the event of any change in the capital structure or business of the Company or other corporate transaction or event that would not be considered an Adjustment Event, and is not otherwise addressed in this Section 8, the Committee shall have complete discretion to make Equitable Adjustments in such manner as it deems appropriate with respect to such other event.

(e) Change in Control and Other Events. Except to the extent otherwise provided in any applicable Award Agreement, vesting of any Award shall not occur solely upon the occurrence of a Change in Control and, in the event of a Change in Control or other changes in the Company or the outstanding Stock by reason of a recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, combination, exchange or other relevant change occurring after the date of the grant of any Award, the Committee, acting in its sole discretion without the consent or approval of any holder, may exercise any power enumerated in Section 3 and may also effect one or more of the following alternatives, which may vary among individual holders and which may vary among Awards held by any individual holder:

(i) accelerate the time of exercisability of an Award so that such Award may be exercised in full or in part for a limited period of time on or before a date specified by the Committee, after which specified date all unexercised Awards and all rights of holders thereunder shall terminate;

(ii) provide for a cash payment with respect to outstanding Awards by requiring the mandatory surrender to the Company by selected holders of some or all of the outstanding Awards held by such holders (irrespective of whether such Awards are then vested or exercisable) as of a date, specified by the Committee, in which event the Committee shall thereupon cancel such Awards and the Company shall pay to each holder an amount of cash or other consideration per Award (other than a Dividend Equivalent or Cash Award, which the Committee may separately require to be surrendered in exchange for cash or other consideration determined by the Committee in its discretion) equal to the Change in Control Price, less the Exercise Price with respect to an Option and less the grant price with respect to a SAR, as applicable to such Awards; provided, however, that to the extent the Exercise Price of an Option or the grant price of an SAR exceeds the Change in Control Price, such Award may be cancelled for no consideration;

(iii) cancel Awards that remain subject to a restricted period as of the date of a Change in Control or other such event without payment of any consideration to the Participant for such Awards; or

(iv) make such adjustments to Awards then-outstanding as the Committee deems appropriate to reflect such Change in Control or other such event (including the substitution, assumption, or continuation of Awards by the successor company or a parent or subsidiary thereof);

provided, however, that so long as the event is not an Adjustment Event, the Committee may determine in its sole discretion that no adjustment is necessary to Awards then-outstanding. If an Adjustment Event occurs, this Section 8(e) shall only apply to the extent it is not in conflict with Section 8(d).

9. General Provisions.

(a) Tax Withholding. The Company and any of its Affiliates are authorized to withhold from any Award granted, or any payment relating to an Award, including from a distribution of Stock, taxes due or potentially payable in connection with any transaction involving an Award, and to take such other action as the Committee may deem advisable to enable the Company, its Affiliates and Participants to satisfy obligations for the payment of withholding taxes and other tax obligations relating to any Award. The Committee shall determine, in its sole discretion, the form of payment acceptable for such tax withholding obligations, including the delivery of cash or cash equivalents, Stock (including previously owned shares, net settlement, a broker-assisted sale, or other cashless withholding or reduction of the amount of shares otherwise issuable or delivered pursuant to the Award), other property, or any other legal consideration the Committee deems appropriate. Any determination made by the Committee to allow a Participant who is subject to Rule 16b-3 to pay taxes with shares

A-12

Select Water Solutions

TABLE OF CONTENTS

of Stock through net settlement or previously owned shares shall be approved by either a committee made up of solely two or more Qualified Members or the full Board. If such tax obligations are satisfied through net settlement or previously owned shares, the maximum number of shares of Stock that may be so withheld (or surrendered) shall be the number of shares of Stock that have an aggregate Fair Market Value on the date of withholding or repurchase equal to the aggregate amount of such tax liabilities determined based on the greatest withholding rates for federal, state, foreign and/or local tax purposes, including payroll taxes, that may be utilized without creating adverse accounting treatment for the Company with respect to such Award, as determined by the Committee.

(b) Limitation on Rights Conferred Under Plan. Neither the Plan nor any action taken hereunder shall be construed as (i) giving any Eligible Person or Participant the right to continue as an Eligible Person or Participant or in the employ or service of the Company or any of its Affiliates, (ii) interfering in any way with the right of the Company or any of its Affiliates to terminate any Eligible Person’s or Participant’s employment or service relationship at any time, (iii) giving an Eligible Person or Participant any claim to be granted any Award under the Plan or to be treated uniformly with other Participants and/or employees and/or other service providers, or (iv) conferring on a Participant any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company unless and until the Participant is duly issued or transferred shares of Stock in accordance with the terms of an Award.

(c) Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. All questions arising with respect to the provisions of the Plan and Awards shall be determined by application of the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any conflict of law provisions thereof, except to the extent Delaware law is preempted by federal law. The obligation of the Company to sell and deliver Stock hereunder is subject to applicable federal and state laws and to the approval of any governmental authority required in connection with the authorization, issuance, sale, or delivery of such Stock. With respect to any claim or dispute related to or arising under the Plan, the Company and each Participant who accepts an Award hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction, forum and venue of the state and federal courts located in the State of Delaware.

(d) Severability and Reformation. If any provision of the Plan or any Award is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or as to any person or Award, or would disqualify the Plan or any Award under any law deemed applicable by the Committee, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to the applicable law or, if it cannot be construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Committee, materially altering the intent of the Plan or the Award, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction, person or Award and the remainder of the Plan and any such Award shall remain in full force and effect. If any of the terms or provisions of the Plan or any Award Agreement conflict with the requirements of Rule 16b-3 (as those terms or provisions are applied to Eligible Persons who are subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act) or Section 422 of the Code (with respect to ISOs), then those conflicting terms or provisions shall be deemed inoperative to the extent they so conflict with the requirements of Rule 16b-3 (unless the Board or the Committee, as appropriate, has expressly determined that the Plan or such Award should not comply with Rule 16b-3) or Section 422 of the Code, in each case, only to the extent Rule 16b-3 or Section 422 of the Code is applicable. With respect to ISOs, if the Plan does not contain any provision required to be included herein under Section 422 of the Code, that provision shall be deemed to be incorporated herein with the same force and effect as if that provision had been set out at length herein; provided further that, to the extent any Option that is intended to qualify as an ISO cannot so qualify, that Option (to that extent) shall be deemed a Nonstatutory Option for all purposes of the Plan.

(e) Unfunded Status of Awards; No Trust or Fund Created. The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan for certain incentive awards. Neither the Plan nor any Award shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company or any Affiliate and a Participant or any other person. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company or any Affiliate pursuant to an Award, such right shall be no greater than the right of any general unsecured creditor of the Company or such Affiliate.

(f) Nonexclusivity of the Plan. Neither the adoption of the Plan by the Board nor its submission to the stockholders of the Company for approval shall be construed as creating any limitations on the

2024 Proxy Statement

A-13

TABLE OF CONTENTS

power of the Board or a committee thereof to adopt such other incentive arrangements as it may deem desirable. Nothing contained in the Plan shall be construed to prevent the Company or any of its Affiliates from taking any corporate action which is deemed by the Company or such Affiliate to be appropriate or in its best interest, whether or not such action would have an adverse effect on the Plan or any Award made under the Plan. No employee, beneficiary or other person shall have any claim against the Company or any of its Affiliates as a result of any such action.

(g) Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Stock shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or any Award, and the Committee shall determine in its sole discretion whether cash, other securities, or other property shall be paid or transferred in lieu of any fractional shares of Stock or whether such fractional shares of Stock or any rights thereto shall be cancelled, terminated, or otherwise eliminated with or without consideration.

(h) Beneficiary Designation. Participants may designate beneficiaries with respect to Awards under the Plan in accordance with the procedures determined by the Committee. In the absence of a beneficiary designation, a Participant’s estate will be the deemed beneficiary.

(i) Interpretation. Headings are given to the Sections and subsections of the Plan solely as a convenience to facilitate reference. Such headings shall not be deemed in any way material or relevant to the construction or interpretation of the Plan or any provision thereof. Words in the masculine gender shall include the feminine gender, and, where appropriate, the plural shall include the singular and the singular shall include the plural. In the event of any conflict between the terms and conditions of an Award Agreement and the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall control. The use herein of the word “including” following any general statement, term or matter shall not be construed to limit such statement, term or matter to the specific items or matters set forth immediately following such word or to similar items or matters, whether or not non-limiting language (such as “without limitation,” “but not limited to,” or words of similar import) is used with reference thereto, but rather shall be deemed to refer to all other items or matters that could reasonably fall within the broadest possible scope of such general statement, term or matter. References herein to any agreement, instrument or other document means such agreement, instrument or other document as amended, supplemented and modified from time to time to the extent permitted by the provisions thereof and not prohibited by the Plan.

(j) Facility of Payment. Any amounts payable hereunder to any individual under legal disability or who, in the judgment of the Committee, is unable to manage properly his financial affairs, may be paid to the legal representative of such individual, or may be applied for the benefit of such individual in any manner that the Committee may select, and the Company shall be relieved of any further liability for payment of such amounts.

(k) Conditions to Delivery of Stock. Nothing herein or in any Award Agreement shall require the Company to issue any shares with respect to any Award if that issuance would, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, constitute a violation of the Securities Act, any other applicable statute or regulation, or the rules of any applicable securities exchange or securities association, as then in effect. In addition, each Participant who receives an Award under the Plan shall not sell or otherwise dispose of Stock that is acquired upon grant, exercise or vesting of an Award in any manner that would constitute a violation of any applicable federal or state securities laws, the Plan or the rules, regulations or other requirements of the SEC or any stock exchange, if any, on which the Stock is listed. At the time of any exercise of an Option or SAR, or at the time of any grant of any other Award, the Company may, as a condition precedent to the exercise of such Option or SAR or settlement of any other Award, require from the Participant (or in the event of his or her death, his or her legal representatives, heirs, legatees, or distributees) such written representations, if any, concerning the holder’s intentions with regard to the retention or disposition of the shares of Stock being acquired pursuant to the Award and such written covenants and agreements, if any, as to the manner of disposal of such shares as, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, may be necessary to ensure that any disposition by that holder (or in the event of the holder’s death, his or her legal representatives, heirs, legatees, or distributees) will not involve a violation of the Securities Act, any other applicable state or federal statute or regulation, or any rule of any applicable securities exchange or securities association, as then in effect. Stock or other securities shall not be delivered

TABLE OF CONTENTS

pursuant to any Award until payment in full of any amount required to be paid pursuant to the Plan or the applicable Award Agreement (including any Exercise Price, grant price, or tax withholding) is received by the Company.

(l) Section 409A of the Code. It is the general intention, but not the obligation, of the Committee to design Awards to comply with or to be exempt from the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules, and Awards will be operated and construed accordingly. Neither this Section 9(k) nor any other provision of the Plan is or contains a representation to any Participant regarding the tax consequences of the grant, vesting, exercise, settlement, or sale of any Award (or the Stock underlying such Award) granted hereunder, and should not be interpreted as such. In no event shall the Company be liable for all or any portion of any taxes, penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by the Participant on account of non-compliance with the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan or an Award Agreement to the contrary, in the event that a “specified employee” (as defined under the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules) becomes entitled to a payment under an Award that would be subject to additional taxes and interest under the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules if the Participant’s receipt of such payment or benefits is not delayed until the earlier of (i) the date of the Participant’s death, or (ii) the date that is six months after the Participant’s “separation from service,” as defined under the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules (such date, the “Section 409A Payment Date”), then such payment or benefit shall not be provided to the Participant until the Section 409A Payment Date. Any amounts subject to the preceding sentence that would otherwise be payable prior to the Section 409A Payment Date will be aggregated and paid in a lump sum without interest on the Section 409A Payment Date. The applicable provisions of the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules are hereby incorporated by reference and shall control over any Plan or Award Agreement provision in conflict therewith.

(m) Clawback. The Plan and all Awards granted hereunder are subject to any written clawback policies that the Company, with the approval of the Board or an authorized committee thereof, may adopt either prior to or following the Effective Date, including the Select Water Solutions, Inc. Clawback Policy, that the Company determines should apply to Awards. Any such policy may subject a Participant’s Awards and amounts paid or realized with respect to Awards to reduction, cancelation, forfeiture or recoupment if certain specified events or wrongful conduct occur, including an accounting restatement due to the Company’s material noncompliance with financial reporting regulations or other events or wrongful conduct specified in any such clawback policy. No recovery of compensation under any such policy will be an event giving rise to a right to resign for “good reason” or be deemed a “constructive termination” (or any similar term) as such terms are used in any agreement between any Participant and the Company.

(n) Status under ERISA. The Plan shall not constitute an “employee benefit plan” for purposes of Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

(o) Plan Effective Date and Term. The Plan was adopted by the Board to be effective on the Effective Date. No Awards may be granted under the Plan on and after March 25, 2034. However, any Award granted prior to such termination (or any earlier termination pursuant to Section 10), and the authority of the Board or Committee to amend, alter, adjust, suspend, discontinue, or terminate any such Award or to waive any conditions or rights under such Award in accordance with the terms of the Plan, shall extend beyond such termination until the final disposition of such Award.

10. Amendments to the Plan and Awards. The Committee may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate any Award or Award Agreement, the Plan or the Committee’s authority to grant Awards without the consent of stockholders or Participants, except that any amendment or alteration to the Plan, including any increase in any share limitation, shall be subject to the approval of the Company’s stockholders not later than the annual meeting next following such Committee action if such stockholder approval is required by any federal or state law or regulation or the rules of listing rules of the stock exchange, if any, on which the Stock is listed, and the Committee may otherwise, in its discretion, determine to submit other changes to the Plan to stockholders for approval; provided that, without the consent of an affected Participant, no such Committee action may materially and adversely affect the rights of such Participant under any previously granted and outstanding Award. For purposes of clarity,

any adjustments made to Awards pursuant to Section 8 will be deemed not to materially and adversely affect the rights of any Participant under any previously granted and outstanding Award and therefore may be made without the consent of affected Participants.
