Schedule I attached hereto sets forth the information required by Instruction C of the instructions to Schedule 13D.

Item 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to include the following:

On May 17, 2022, the Issuer issued to ProFrac Holdings $50,000,000 in principal amount of 10% Convertible PIK Notes convertible into shares of Common Stock (the “Convertible Notes”) in consideration of ProFrac Services, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of ProFrac Holdings II (“ProFrac Services”), entering into the Supply Agreement Amendment (as defined below) to amend the Chemical Products Supply Agreement by and between ProFrac Services and Flotek Chemistry, LLC, the Issuer’s wholly-owned subsidiary (“Flotek Chemistry”), dated February 2, 2022 (the “Supply Agreement”).

The Convertible Notes may be converted (in whole or in part) into Common Stock at a price of $1.088125 per share (the “Conversion Price”) at any time prior to the maturity date, which will be one year from the date of issuance. Interest on the Convertible Notes will begin to accrue on the unpaid principal balance commencing on the closing date at the rate of 10% per annum, payable in incremental principal amount. On the maturity date, the Convertible Notes would be mandatorily converted, and the entire unpaid principal balance of the Convertible Notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, would become due and payable in shares of Common Stock at the lesser of the Conversion Price and $0.8705 per share (except in limited circumstances where cash settlement would occur). In the event of a change of control of the Issuer, the holder of the Convertible Notes would have the option to convert the outstanding principal and unpaid accrued interest on the Convertible Notes into shares of Common Stock at the lesser of the Conversion Price and $0.8705 per share, or redeem the Convertible Notes for cash at their outstanding principal plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, together with the amount of interest that, but for the redemption, would have accrued to the maturity date. In addition, the Convertible Notes may be converted by the Issuer if the volume-weighted average trading price of Common Stock equals or exceeds the greater of $2.50 per share or $1.741 for 20 trading days during a 30 consecutive trading day period. The Conversion Price is subject to customary adjustments as described therein.

Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to include the following:

Supply Agreement Amendment

On May 17, 2022, in connection with the closing of the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated February 16, 2022, by and between the Issuer and ProFrac Holdings (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”), ProFrac Services and Flotek Chemistry entered into an amendment to the Supply Agreement (the “Supply Agreement Amendment”), pursuant to which the Supply Agreement was amended to (a) increase ProFrac Services’ minimum purchase obligation for each year to the greater of 70% of ProFrac Services’ requirements and a baseline measured by ProFrac Services’ first 30 fleets, and (b) increase the term to 10 years.

Under the Supply Agreement, as amended, ProFrac is obligated to purchase a minimum amount of chemicals over the term of the Supply Agreement equal to the greater of (a) a baseline determined by reference to ProFrac Services’ first 30 fleets and (b) 70% of ProFrac Services’ requirements. Should ProFrac Services fail to purchase the minimum amount of chemicals in any given year, ProFrac Services is obligated to pay to Flotek Chemistry liquidated damages equal to 25% of the shortfall for such year. The Supply Agreement has a term of 10 years from April 1, 2022, subject to, among other things, early termination pursuant to the termination provisions of the Supply Agreement. Upon mutual agreement, Flotek Chemistry and ProFrac Services may extend the term of the Supply Agreement.

Registration Rights Agreement

On May 17, 2022, concurrent with the closing of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Issuer entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with ProFrac Holdings relating to the registration of (a) the shares of Common Stock held or later acquired by ProFrac Holdings or its affiliates and (b) any shares of Common Stock issued as (or issuable upon the conversion, redemption, or exercise or any warrant, option, right, or other security that is issued as) a dividend or other distribution with respect to, or in exchange for or in replacement of, any such shares of Common Stock described in the preceding clause (a) or the Convertible Notes (the “Registrable Securities”).

Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Issuer is required to use its commercially reasonable efforts to file a registration statement on or before 120 days from the date of the Registration Rights Agreement (the “Shelf Registration Statement”), and to cause such Shelf Registration Statement to become effective no later than four months following the initial filing of such Shelf Registration Statement. In certain circumstances and subject to customary qualifications and limitations, the holders of Registrable Securities will have piggyback registration rights on offerings of Common Stock initiated by the Issuer, among other rights as described in the Registration Rights Agreement, and selling holders will have rights to request that the Issuer initiate up to two Underwritten Offerings (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) of Registrable Securities in any 365-day period.

The foregoing descriptions of the Convertible Notes, the Supply Agreement, the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Supply Agreement Amendment and the Registration Rights Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete text of the Convertible Notes, the Supply Agreement, the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Supply Agreement Amendment and the Registration Rights Agreement, which are filed herewith as Exhibits 1 through 5 to this Amendment and are incorporated herein by reference.

Board Designation

Under the Master Transaction Agreement between ProFrac Holdings and the Issuer, dated as of February 2, 2022, ProFrac Holdings was granted the right to designate two designees to serve on the Issuer’s board of directors (the “Issuer’s Board”). On May 17, 2022, in connection with the closing of the Securities Purchase Agreement, ProFrac Holdings was granted the right to designate two additional members of the Issuer’s Board, for a total of four out of seven directors on the Issuer’s Board. As of the date of this Amendment, (i) Matt D. Wilks, the Executive Chairman of PubCo, has been designated as one of these designees, and the Issuer has nominated Matt D. Wilks for election to the Issuer’s Board at the Issuer’s 2022 annual meeting of shareholders, to be held on June 9, 2022, (ii) PubCo and the Issuer are in discussions regarding a second potential designee, and (iii) the remaining designations have not yet been made.

PubCo consummated an initial public offering (the “IPO”) of its Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “PubCo Class A Common Stock”) on May 17, 2022. The following information is based on a Schedule 13D filed by the PubCo Reporting Persons (as defined below) with the SEC on May 27, 2022 regarding PubCo:

In the aggregate, THRC Holdings, LP, a Texas limited partnership (“THRC Holdings”), THRC Management, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“THRC Management”), FARJO Holdings, LP, a Texas limited partnership (“FARJO Holdings”), FARJO Management, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“FARJO Management”), Dan Wilks, the Farris and Jo Ann Wilks 2022 Family Trust, a Texas irrevocable trust (the “Farris Trust”), Farris Wilks and Jo Ann Wilks (collectively, the “PubCo Reporting Persons”) are the beneficial owners of (i) 26,665,430 shares of PubCo Class A Common Stock, representing 70.9% of the PubCo Class A Common Stock outstanding as of May 17, 2022, and (ii) 97,447,865 shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of PubCo (the “PubCo Class B Common Stock”), representing 96.4% of the PubCo Class B Common Stock outstanding as of May 17, 2022. The PubCo Class A Common Stock is registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act. The PubCo Class B Common Stock is not registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act. In aggregate, combining the PubCo Reporting Persons’ PubCo Class A Common Stock and PubCo Class B Common Stock, as of May 17, 2022, the PubCo Reporting Persons collectively have voting power representing approximately 88.6% of PubCo’s outstanding common stock. The percentage of beneficial ownership is based upon (i) 39,008,850 shares of PubCo Class A Common Stock and (ii) 101,133,201 shares of PubCo Class B Common Stock outstanding as of May 17, 2022.

In connection with the IPO, PubCo entered into a stockholders’ agreement (the “Stockholders’ Agreement”) with THRC Holdings, Farris Wilks and certain of their affiliates. Among other things, the Stockholders’ Agreement provides that, for so long as THRC Holdings, Farris Wilks and their affiliates individually or collectively beneficially own more than 50% of the outstanding shares of PubCo’s common stock, THRC Holdings and Farris Wilks will each have the right to designate one director for election to PubCo’s board of directors (the “PubCo Board”) following the IPO.

When THRC Holdings, Farris Wilks and their affiliates collectively beneficially own less than 50% of the outstanding shares of PubCo’s common stock, the PubCo Board will be divided into three classes, with directors of each class serving for staggered three-year terms, and THRC Holdings and Farris Wilks will each have the right to designate one class III director to the PubCo Board for so long as each of THRC Holdings and Farris Wilks and their affiliates collectively beneficially own at least 5% of the outstanding shares of PubCo’s common stock.

The business address of each of the PubCo Reporting Persons is 17018 IH 20, Cisco, Texas 76437. Each of Dan Wilks, Farris Wilks and Jo Ann Wilks is a citizen of the United States of America. The principal occupation of each of Dan Wilks, Farris Wilks and Jo Ann Wilks is self-employed investor.
