(b) One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000.00) (the “Holdback Amount”) shall not be paid at Closing and shall be withheld to provide funds against which Buyers’ Indemnified Persons may assert claims of indemnification pursuant to Article VIII and Article IX. The Holdback Amount will be held, administered and distributed by Buyers in accordance with Section 2.07(d).

Section 2.06 [Reserved]


Section 2.07 Determination of Inventory and Holdback Amount.

(a) Estimates. At least five (5) Business Days prior to Closing, Sellers’ Representative shall prepare and deliver to Buyers a statement (the “Estimated Closing Statement”), setting forth a reasonably detailed determination of Sellers’ Representative’s good faith estimation of the Inventory as of the Closing Date (the “Estimated Closing Date Inventory”) and the Estimated Closing Date Adjustment

16


Amount, together with reasonably detailed supporting information. If the Estimated Closing Date Inventory is less than the Target Inventory, the amount equal to such difference is the “Estimated Inventory Deficiency.” If the Estimated Closing Date Inventory is greater than the Target Inventory, the amount equal to such difference is the “Estimated Inventory Excess.” The Estimated Inventory Excess, if any, shall be capped at One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00). If Buyers have any questions or disagreements regarding the Estimated Closing Date Inventory, Buyers’ Representative shall contact Sellers’ Representative at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, and in such case Sellers’ Representative and Buyers’ Representative shall attempt to resolve any questions or disagreements in good faith. If Sellers’ Representative and Buyers’ Representative agree to changes to Sellers’ Representative’s proposed Estimated Closing Date Inventory based on such discussions, then the Estimated Closing Date Inventory shall be so revised. If Sellers’ Representative and Buyers’ Representative do not agree to changes to such amounts, then the Estimated Closing Date Inventory shall be based on the amounts set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement initially delivered by Sellers’ Representative. In either such case, appropriate adjustments to the Purchase Price shall be made after the Closing pursuant to Section 2.07(b) and Section 2.07(c). Adjustments pursuant to this Section shall be made solely based on the physical count of the Inventory, utilizing the same methodology, valuations and assumptions utilized by the Sellers with respect to the Inventory under GAAP prior to the Closing Date, including the methodology, valuations and assumptions with respect to the Inventory’s usability.

(b) Post-Closing Purchase Price Reconciliation.

(i) Within ninety (90) days of the Closing Date, Buyers’ Representative shall prepare in good faith and deliver to Sellers’ Representative a statement (the “Closing Statement”), setting forth a reasonably detailed proposed final calculation of the Inventory as of the Closing Date (the “Closing Date Inventory”), and the Closing Date Inventory Adjustment Amount, together with reasonably detailed supporting information. If the Closing Date Inventory is less than the Target Inventory, the amount equal to such difference is the “Closing Date Inventory Deficiency.” If the Closing Date Inventory is greater than the Target Inventory, the amount equal to such difference is the “Closing Date Inventory Excess.” The Closing Date Inventory Excess, if any, shall be capped at One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000).

(ii) From and after the delivery of the Closing Statement, Buyers’ Representative shall provide Sellers’ Representative reasonable access to the records and employees of Buyers and their Affiliates and shall cause the employees of Buyers and their Affiliates to cooperate in all reasonable respects with Sellers’ Representative in connection with its review of such work papers and other documents and information relating to the calculation of the Closing Date Inventory, as Sellers’ Representative shall reasonably request and that are available to Buyers and their Affiliates.

(iii) Within thirty (30) days after Sellers’ Representative’s receipt of the Closing Statement, Sellers’ Representative shall notify Buyers’ Representative if Sellers’

17


Representative disagrees with the Closing Statement, which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the particulars of such disagreement (the “Objection Notice”). If Sellers’ Representative provides a notice of agreement or does not deliver to Buyers’ Representative an Objection Notice within such thirty (30)-day period, then Sellers’ Representative shall be deemed to have accepted the calculations and the amounts set forth in the Closing Statement delivered by Buyers’ Representative, which shall then be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes hereunder. If any such Objection Notice is timely delivered, then Sellers’ Representative and Buyers’ Representative shall each endeavor for a period of thirty (30) days thereafter to resolve in good faith any disagreements with respect to the calculations in the Closing Statement.

(iv) If, at the end of the thirty (30)-day resolution period, Sellers’ Representative and Buyers’ Representative are unable to resolve any disagreement between them with respect to the preparation of the Closing Statement, then each such Party shall deliver simultaneously to KPMG LLP (or if such firm is unwilling or unable to serve, another nationally recognized accounting firm mutually agreed on by such Parties, the accounting firm ultimately chosen, the “Accountants”) the Objection Notice, the Closing Statement and any engagement, indemnity and other agreements as the Accountants may require as a condition to such engagement (each a “Submission”) within five (5) days of retaining the Accountants (the “Closing Statement Submission Deadline”). Such Parties shall instruct the Accountants to deliver to the Parties a written determination (such determination to include a worksheet setting forth all material calculations used in arriving at such determination and to be based solely on information provided to the Accountants by the Parties, or their respective Affiliates) of, and the Accountants’ engagement shall be limited to the resolution of, disputed amounts set forth in the Closing Statement that have been identified by Sellers’ Representative in the Objection Notice, which resolution shall be in accordance with this Agreement, and no other matter relating to the Closing Statement shall be subject to determination by the Accountants except to the extent affected by resolution of the disputed amounts. In resolving any disputed item, the Accountants shall not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by Buyers’ Representative or Sellers’ Representative or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by Buyers’ Representative or Sellers’ Representative. Such Parties shall cooperate diligently with any reasonable request of the Accountants to resolve any disputed matter as soon as reasonably possible after the Accountants are engaged. If possible, the decision of the Accountants shall be made within twenty (20) days after the Closing Statement Submission Deadline. The fees and expenses of the Accountants shall be allocated by the Accountants between Buyers, on the one hand, and Sellers and Flotek, jointly and severally, on the other hand, so that the aggregate amount of such fees and expenses paid by Sellers bears the same proportion to the total fees and expenses as the aggregate dollar amount of items unsuccessfully disputed by Sellers’ Representative, if any (as determined by the Accountants), bears to the total dollar amount of items in dispute, and Buyers shall pay the remainder of such fees and expenses, if any. The determination

18


of the Accountants shall be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes hereunder, absent manifest error or fraud.

(c) True-Up Payment. If the Closing Date Inventory Adjustment Amount is less than the Estimated Inventory Adjustment Amount (the amount of such shortfall, if any, the “Purchase Price Overpayment”), Sellers shall, within forty-five (45) Business Days after the final determination of the Closing Statement, promptly pay to Buyers in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Buyers, an amount equal to the Purchase Price Overpayment. If the Closing Date Inventory Adjustment Amount is greater than the Estimated Inventory Adjustment Amount (the amount of such excess, the “Purchase Price Deficit”), Buyers shall, within forty-five (45) Business Days after the final determination of the Closing Statement, promptly pay to Sellers’ Bank Account in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds, an amount equal to the Purchase Price Deficit.

(d) Holdback Amount and Payment.

(i) When Sellers are the Indemnifying Persons, once a Loss is agreed to or finally adjudicated to be payable pursuant to Article VIII or Article IX, Buyers’ Indemnified Persons shall first be paid from the Holdback Amount. Buyers shall be immediately entitled to distribute funds in the amount of such agreed to or finally adjudicated Loss, and the Holdback Amount shall be reduced by such Loss. Buyers’ Representative shall notify Sellers in writing within five (5) Business Days of such a distribution and reduction of the Holdback Amount, and such notice shall also contain the then-remaining balance in the Holdback Amount.

(ii) Subject to Section 2.07(d)(iii), one-third (1/3) of the Holdback Amount shall be released six (6) months after the Closing Date, one-third (1/3) of the Holdback Amount shall be released twelve (12) months after the Closing Date, and one- third (1/3) of the Holdback Amount shall be released eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date (each, a “Holdback Release Date”).

(iii) On the date of each Holdback Release Date, such portion of the Holdback Amount as may be necessary, in the reasonable judgment of Buyers, to satisfy any then-unresolved or unsatisfied claims for Loss, shall remain in the Holdback Amount until such claims for Loss have been resolved or satisfied in accordance with Article VIII or Article IX. Within ten (10) Business Days after each Holdback Release Date, each 1/3 portion of the Holdback Amount, less any amount determined pursuant to the previous sentence, shall be paid by Buyers to Sellers’s Bank Account by wire transfer of immediately available funds. For the avoidance of doubt, the Holdback Amount shall not be the sole source of recovery for any Loss for which Sellers are obligated to indemnify Buyers or Buyers’ Indemnified Persons pursuant to Article VIII or Article IX.

Section 2.08 Allocation.

(a) Sellers and Buyers shall allocate the Purchase Price (and all other amounts constituting consideration for applicable income Tax purposes), among the Purchased

19


Assets in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (and any similar provision of state, local or foreign law, as appropriate) (the “Allocation”). The Allocation shall be delivered by Buyers to Sellers within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date for their approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If the Purchase Price is adjusted because an indemnification payment is made pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, or if there is any other subsequent adjustment to the Purchase Price or any other amount constituting consideration for applicable income Tax purposes, then Buyers shall adjust the Allocation to reflect such adjustment in a manner consistent with Section
1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. The principles
of this Section 2.08(a) shall apply to each revised Allocation.

(b) The Allocation shall be deemed final unless Sellers’ Representative notifies Buyers in writing that Sellers object to one or more items reflected in the Allocation within thirty (30) days after the applicable delivery of the Purchase Price Allocation. In the event of any such objection, Sellers’ Representative and Buyers’ Representative shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute; provided, however, that if Sellers’ Representative and Buyers’ Representative are unable to resolve any dispute with respect to the Allocation within fifteen (15) days after any objection is raised, such Allocation shall not be binding on the Parties and such dispute shall be resolved by the Accountants. The Accountants will appraise the Purchased Assets as such exist as of immediately prior to the Closing. The cost of such appraisal shall be divided equally between Sellers and Buyers. Buyers and Sellers will use the Allocation as the basis for reporting asset values and other items for purposes of all required Tax Returns (including any Tax Returns required to be filed under Section 1060(b) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, including Internal Revenue Service Form
8594), and neither Buyers nor Sellers shall take any position for Tax purposes that is
inconsistent with the Allocation; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall prevent Buyers or Sellers from settling any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Government Authority based upon or arising out of the Allocation, and neither Buyers nor Sellers shall be required to litigate before any court any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Government Authority challenging such Allocation.

(c) Sellers agree to provide Buyers and their representatives reasonable access to the books and records of the Business, the personnel of, and work papers prepared by, Sellers or Sellers’ representatives to the extent that they relate to the Purchase Price Allocation and to such historical financial information (to the extent in Sellers’ possession) relating to the Allocation as Buyers may reasonably request for the purpose of preparing the Allocation; provided, however, that such access shall be in a manner that does not interfere with the normal business operations of Sellers.

(a) Sellers and Flotek, on behalf of themselves and their Affiliates, hereby acknowledge and agree that (i) Buyers would not have entered into this Agreement if Sellers and Flotek had not agreed to the covenants set forth in this Section 4.01 and (ii) Sellers and Flotek have had access to information that is confidential in relation to the Purchased Assets that constitutes a valuable, special and unique asset, and with respect to which Buyers are entitled to the protections afforded by this Agreement and to the remedies for enforcement of this Section 4.01 provided by law or equity (including those remedies the availability of which may be within the discretion of the court or arbitrator that presides over any action for which enforcement of this Agreement is brought).

(b) For a period of one (1) year after the Closing Date, Sellers and Flotek agree that they will not, and they shall cause their Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly solicit the employment or services of, or, cause or attempt to cause any employees of Sellers or their Affiliates who accept offers of employment with Buyers or their Affiliates (“Business Employee”) to leave the employment or service of, Buyers or their Affiliates, other than general solicitations that do not target the Business Employee.

(c) For a period of three (3) years following the Closing Date, Sellers and Flotek agree that they will not, and shall cause their Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, acting alone or as a member of a partnership or company, as a holder or owner of any security, as an agent, advisor, consultant or independent contractor:

(i) carry on, participate in, or be engaged in (whether for its own account or for the account of any other Person) the Restricted Business within the Restricted Area; or

(ii) share in the earnings of, or beneficially own or hold any security issued by, or otherwise own or hold any interest in any entity which is engaged in the Restricted Business in the Restricted Area; or
(iii) request or suggest, directly or indirectly, that any customer or supplier of Buyers relating to the Restricted Business, curtail or cancel its business or refrain from doing business with Buyers or their Affiliates within the Restricted Area.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.04(c), Sellers and Flotek and their Affiliates may own, solely as an investment, securities of an entity that is engaged in the Restricted Business if (1) such Person is not an Affiliate of the issuer of such securities, (2) such Person does not, directly or indirectly, beneficially own more than five percent

25


(5%) in the aggregate of such class of securities, (3) such class of securities is publicly traded and (4) such Person has no active participation in such entity.

(d) For a period of three (3) years following the Closing Date, Sellers and Flotek shall, and shall cause their Affiliates to, hold in confidence and shall not use in any manner any confidential and proprietary information, whether written or oral, to the extent concerning the Purchased Assets; provided, however, that the such parties shall be able to use any such information as may be reasonably required by such Persons in connection with any insurance Proceedings or Tax audits against, or Proceedings concerning, any such Persons. If Sellers, Flotek or their Affiliates are requested or compelled to disclose any such confidential information by judicial or administrative process, by any Government Authority or by other requirements of Law, such Person shall promptly notify Buyers in writing and shall disclose only that portion of such information that such Person is advised by its counsel that it is legally required to disclose; provided, that such Person shall cooperate with Buyers, at Buyers’ sole cost and expense, to permit Buyers to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such information. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 4.04(d) to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 4.04(d) shall not apply to (i) any information which has come within the public domain, except that which has come in the public domain through a Seller’s or Flotek’s or their respective Affiliates’ breach of this Agreement or (ii) information which was lawfully available to Sellers or Flotek on a non-confidential basis prior to its disclosure hereunder.

(e) Buyers, Sellers and Flotek hereby agree that if Sellers or Flotek (or any Affiliate of such Persons) violate or threaten to violate any of the provisions of this Section 4.01, it would be difficult to determine the entire cost, damage or injury which Buyers would sustain. Sellers and Flotek acknowledge that if they (or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates) violate any of the provisions of this Section 4.01, Buyers may have no adequate remedy at law. In the event of such violation, Buyers shall have the right, in addition to any other rights that may be available to them to seek to obtain in any court of competent jurisdiction injunctive relief to restrain any violation by such Person of any provision of this Section 4.01 or to seek to compel specific performance by such Person of one or more of its obligations under this Section 4.01. The seeking or obtaining by Buyers of such injunctive relief shall not foreclose or in any way limit the right of Buyers to obtain a money judgment against Sellers or Flotek for any damage to Buyers that may result from any breach by Sellers or Flotek (or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Persons) of any provision of this Section 4.01.

(f) Sellers and Flotek acknowledge that the covenants contained in Section
4.01 are reasonable in geographic and temporal scope and that the scope of each of the
activities being restrained is reasonable and does not impose a greater restraint than is necessary to protect the goodwill or other business interest of Buyers. If any court of competent jurisdiction determines that any of such covenants, provisions or portions of Section 4.01, or any part thereof, are unenforceable and invalid, then (i) the validity and enforceability of any remaining covenants, provisions or portions thereof shall not be affected by such determination, (ii) those of such covenants, provisions or portions that

26


are determined to be unenforceable because of the duration or scope thereof shall be severed and/or reformed by the court to reduce their duration or scope so as to render them enforceable against Sellers and Flotek and (iii) all remaining covenants, provisions, portions and terms of this Section 4.01 shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

(g) If Closing occurs, the restrictions contained in this Section 4.01 shall survive the Closing Date for the periods specified.

After the Closing Date, Sellers on the one hand, and Buyers on the other hand, will obtain the approval of the other Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, before issuing any press releases or otherwise making any public statements with respect to any confidential or proprietary aspect of this transaction, except as in the reasonable judgment of a Party may be required by Law or by any rule or regulation of any securities exchange, in which case the Parties will consult with each other as to the content and language of any such report, statement or press release prior to its issuance.

Section 4.06 Bulk Sales Laws. The Parties hereby waive compliance with the provisions of any bulk sales, bulk transfer or similar Laws of any jurisdiction that may otherwise be applicable with respect to the sale of any or all of the Purchased Assets to Buyers; it being understood that any Liabilities arising out of the failure of Sellers to comply with the requirements and provisions of any bulk sales, bulk transfer or similar Laws of any jurisdiction shall be treated as Excluded Liabilities.

Litigation.

(a) If Closing occurs, then Flotek and Buyers (on behalf of National Oilwell DHT, L.P.) shall, effective as of the Closing Date, hereby fully and completely discharge and release each other from all charges, complaints, claims, grievances, liabilities, obligations, promises, agreements, controversies, damages (including lost profits, reasonable royalty damages, and enhanced damages), actions, causes of action, suits, rights, demands, costs, losses, debts, penalties, fees, wages, expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs actually incurred), and punitive damages, of any nature whatsoever, known or unknown, which either National Oilwell DHT, L.P. or Flotek has, or may have had, against the other, whether or not apparent or yet to be discovered for any acts or omissions related to or arising from:

(c) Flotek and Buyers acknowledge that the release set forth in this Section
4.07 is a release of liability for certain acts of potential infringement that occurred prior to the Closing Date and that such release does not grant Flotek or any of its Affiliates a license or right to use to any Intellectual Property owned by Buyers or any of Buyers’ Affiliates or to any Intellectual Property referenced in this Agreement, by implication, estoppel or otherwise.

(d) Flotek and Buyers agree that the releases provided to Flotek in this Section
4.04 provide a complete defense to Flotek for all claims asserted by National Oilwell DHT, L.P. in the Pending Litigation, and that, if Flotek and National Oilwell DHT, L.P. fail for any reason to jointly and timely file the Stipulation of Dismissal of Action Without Prejudice, Flotek may invoke this Section 4.04 to unilaterally obtain a complete dismissal of the Pending Litigation.

Section 4.08 Receipt of Certain Payments. If Sellers, Flotek or their Affiliates receive any payment or other assets in respect of any accounts receivable related to the Business arising on or after the Closing Date, then Sellers shall within twenty (20) days of such receipt, transfer and deliver all such payments to Buyers. Conversely, if Buyers or their Affiliates receive any payment or other assets in respect of any accounts receivable related to the Business arising before the Closing Date, then Buyers shall within twenty (20) days of such receipt, transfer and deliver all such payments to Sellers’ Account.

Section 9.01 Survival. All of the representations and warranties of the Parties contained in Article VI and Article VII shall survive the Closing hereunder until eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date; provided, however, that the representations and warranties set forth in Section 6.12 (Environmental Matters) and Section 6.13 (Taxes) and shall survive to their applicable statute of limitations periods plus sixty (60) days, and the representations and warranties set forth in Section 6.01 (Organization and Existence), Section 6.02 (Title), Section 6.03 (Authority; Authorization of Agreement), and Section 6.20 (Brokers) shall survive without limitation pursuant to the terms hereof.

For the avoidance of doubt, Sellers’ indemnification obligations contained in Section 9.02(b) through Section 9.02(d) shall survive without limitation pursuant to the terms hereof.

For greater certainty, no claim for indemnification for breaches of any representation or warranty may be asserted after the expiration of the applicable survival period set forth in this Section 9.01. So long as an Indemnified Person asserts a claim for indemnification under and in accordance with this Article IX prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period set forth in this Section 9.01, such Indemnified Person shall be deemed to have preserved its rights to indemnification under this Section 9.01, regardless of when such claim is ultimately liquidated or resolved.

Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article IX, Sellers and Flotek hereby jointly and severally unconditionally, absolutely and irrevocably agree to and shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Buyers, their Subsidiaries and Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, members, partners, employees, Affiliates, controlling persons, direct or indirect equity owners, agents and representatives and their successors and assigns, (collectively, the “Buyers’ Indemnified Persons”) from and against, and shall reimburse Buyers’ Indemnified Persons for, any and all Losses resulting from, arising out of, or related to:

(a) any inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty made by Sellers or Flotek in Article VI of this Agreement (it being understood that, other than Fraud Claims, the sole remedy for any such inaccuracy or breach shall be indemnification pursuant to this Article IX);

44


(b) any non-performance or non-fulfillment of any covenant or agreement on the part of Sellers or Flotek contained in this Agreement;

(c) the Excluded Assets; and

(d) any Excluded Liabilities.

Section 9.03 Indemnification by Buyers. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article IX, Buyers hereby unconditionally, absolutely and irrevocably agree to and shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Flotek, Sellers, their Subsidiaries and Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, members, employees, controlling persons, direct or indirect equity owners, agents and representatives and their successors and assigns (collectively, the “Sellers’ Indemnified Persons”) from and against, and shall reimburse Sellers’ Indemnified Persons for, any and all Losses resulting from, arising out of, or related to:

(a) any inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty made by Buyers in Article VII of this Agreement (it being understood that, other than for Fraud Claims, the sole remedy for any such inaccuracy or breach shall be indemnification pursuant to this Article IX); or

(b) any non-performance or non-fulfillment of any covenant or agreement on the part of Buyers contained in this Agreement.

Section 9.04 Procedures.

(a) If any Person entitled to indemnification under this Article IX (an “Indemnified Party”) asserts a claim for indemnification for, or receives notice of the assertion or commencement of, any Third-Party Claim, such Indemnified Party shall as soon as practicable give written notice (“Indemnity Notice”) of such claim to the Party from whom indemnification is to be sought (an “Indemnifying Party”). The failure to notify the Indemnifying Person promptly of a Third-Party Claim shall not relieve the Indemnifying Person from its indemnification obligation hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Person is materially prejudiced thereby.

(b) In the event that the Indemnified Person gives an Indemnity Notice to the Indemnifying Person, such notice shall set forth the facts known to the Indemnified Person pertaining to the Claim and shall specify the manner in which the Indemnified Person proposes to respond to the Claim. Within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice (the “Investigation Period”), the Indemnifying Person shall state in writing (the “Assumption Notice”): (i) whether the Indemnified Person may proceed to respond to the Claim in the manner set forth in its notice; and (ii) whether the Indemnifying Person shall assume responsibility for and conduct the negotiation, defense or settlement of the Claim, and if so, the specific manner in which the Indemnifying Person proposes to proceed; provided, however, that during the Investigation Period (prior to the Indemnified Party’s receipt of the applicable Assumption Notice), the Indemnified Party shall be permitted to take any and all actions it deems reasonably necessary to protect its rights and defenses with respect to such Third-Party Claim at the cost and expense of the

45


Indemnifying Person. If the Indemnifying Person does elect to assume responsibility and such control, its defense against the Third-Party Claim shall be conducted by the Indemnifying Person and its counsel at its expense in a manner reasonably satisfactory and effective to protect the Indemnified Person to the extent required hereunder. The Indemnifying Person shall have full control of such defense and proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof; provided, that the Indemnifying Person shall not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement agreement without the written consent of the Indemnified Person (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided further, that such consent shall not be required if (i) the settlement agreement contains a complete and unconditional general release by the third party asserting the Claim to all Indemnified Persons affected by the Claim and (ii) the settlement agreement does not contain any sanction or restriction upon the conduct of any business by, and does not contain an injunction or other equitable relief upon, the Indemnified Person or its Affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) the Indemnified Person shall have the right at all times to participate in the defense of any Third-Party Claim hereunder with its own counsel and at its own expense and (b) if the Indemnified Person is advised by outside counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnifying Person that a conflict of interest exists or if the court in which such Third- Party Claim is pending determines that a conflict of interest exists such that the Indemnifying Person’s counsel is prohibited by such court or is otherwise unable to represent the Indemnified Person with respect to such Third-Party Claim, or if there is one or more defenses that could be asserted by the Indemnified Person that could not be asserted by the Indemnifying Person or the Indemnifying Person’s counsel (on the Indemnified Person’s behalf), then the Indemnified Person shall have the right at all times to take over and assume control over the defense, settlement, negotiations or litigation relating to any such Third-Party Claim at the sole cost of the Indemnifying Person.

(c) Unless and until an Indemnifying Person assumes the defense of the Third-Party Claim as provided in Section 9.04(b) above or fails to defend such Third- Party Claim to the extent required hereunder, the Indemnified Person may defend against the Third-Party Claim in any manner it reasonably may deem appropriate, on behalf of and for the risk of the Indemnifying Person and shall be reimbursed for its reasonable cost and expense (but only if the Indemnified Person is actually entitled to indemnification hereunder) in regard to the Third-Party Claim with counsel selected by the Indemnified Person, by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be prosecuted diligently by the Indemnified Person. The Indemnifying Person may participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement controlled by the Indemnified Person pursuant to this Section 9.04(c), and the Indemnifying Person shall bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation.

(d) The Party assuming the defense under this Section 9.04 shall keep the other Party fully informed regarding the progress and status thereof.

(e) In the event any Indemnified Person should have a Claim against any Indemnifying Person hereunder which does not involve a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Person shall promptly transmit to the Indemnifying Person an Indemnity Notice describing in reasonable detail the nature of the claim and the basis of the

46


Indemnified Person’s request for indemnification under this Agreement; provided, however, that failure of the Indemnified Person to give the Indemnity Notice will not relieve the Indemnifying Person from liability hereunder unless and solely to the extent that the Indemnifying Person did not otherwise learn of such claim and such failure results in the forfeiture by the Indemnifying Person of substantial rights and defenses, and will not in any event relieve the Indemnifying Person from any obligations to the Indemnified Person other than the indemnification obligation provided herein. In the event that the Indemnifying Person disputes the validity or scope of the claim set forth in the Indemnity Notice, the Parties will, in good faith, use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such matter within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Indemnity Notice.

(f) All provisions of this Agreement requiring a party to indemnify another Person shall be deemed to incorporate this Section 9.04 by reference, and all notices and actions relating to Claims thereunder shall be made in the manner set forth in, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 9.04.

(g) Buyers shall cooperate with any reasonable requests by Sellers or Flotek with respect to the defense by Sellers or Flotek of the matters disclosed in Section 6.07 of the Disclosure Schedules, including access for evidentiary purposes to the employees of Sellers who were previously employed by Sellers and to the Business Facilities, provided that any out of pocket costs of such cooperation shall be at the expense of Sellers.
Section 9.05 Limitation on Liability of Sellers and Flotek.

(a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Buyers’ Indemnified
Person shall be entitled to indemnification from Sellers and Flotek pursuant to Section 9.02(a) of this Agreement unless and until the aggregate of all Losses for which indemnification would (but for the limitation of this sentence) be required to be paid by Sellers and Flotek under Section 9.02(a) of this Agreement exceeds One Hundred Seventy Thousand Dollars ($170,000.00) (the “Loss Threshold”), after which Loss Threshold Sellers and Flotek shall be liable for all Losses above the Loss Threshold; provided, however, that the Loss Threshold shall not apply to indemnification claims: (i) based on actual fraud or intentional misrepresentation, including fraudulent non- disclosure (“Fraud Claims”); (ii) relating to any inaccuracy or breach of the representations and warranties contained in Section 6.01 (Organization and Existence), Section 6.02 (Title), Section 6.03 (Authority; Authorization of Agreement), Section 6.13 (Taxes) and Section 6.20 (Brokers); or (iii) relating to the indemnification obligations contained in Section 9.02(b) through Section 9.02(d).

(b) Furthermore, the maximum aggregate liability of Sellers and Flotek under Section 9.02(a) of this Agreement shall not, collectively, exceed thirty-three percent (33%) of the Purchase Price; provided, however, that such limit will not apply to: (i) Fraud Claims; (ii) claims relating to any inaccuracy or breach of the representations and warranties contained Section 6.20 (Brokers); or (iii) relating to the indemnification obligations contained in Section 9.02(b) through Section 9.02(d).

Section 9.07 Express Negligence; Limitation on Defense to Certain Claims.

(a) THE FOREGOING INDEMNITIES ARE INTENDED TO BE ENFORCEABLE AGAINST THE PARTIES IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE EXPRESS TERMS AND SCOPE THEREOF NOTWITHSTANDING ANY EXPRESS NEGLIGENCE RULE, DOCTRINE RELATING TO INDEMNIFICATION FOR STRICT LIABILITY OR ANY SIMILAR DIRECTIVE THAT WOULD PROHIBIT OR OTHERWISE LIMIT INDEMNITIES BECAUSE OF THE NEGLIGENCE (WHETHER SOLE, CONCURRENT, ACTIVE OR PASSIVE) OR OTHER FAULT OR STRICT LIABILITY OF ANY OF THE INDEMNIFIED PERSONS.

(b) TO THE EXTENT THAT BUYERS MAKE ANY CLAIMS AGAINST SELLERS OR FLOTEK UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF THIS ARTICLE IX, SELLERS AND FLOTEK MAY NOT ASSERT AND HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVE AS A DEFENSE, COUNTERCLAIM, OR OTHERWISE THAT BUYERS HAVE BEEN NEGLIGENT IN CONDUCTING ITS DUE DILIGENCE RELATING TO ANY ASPECT OF SELLERS, FLOTEK OR THE PURCHASED ASSETS. ANY RIGHT A PARTY MAY HAVE TO INDEMNIFICATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THIS ARTICLE IX WILL NOT BE AFFECTED BY ANY INVESTIGATION CONDUCTED WITH RESPECT TO, OR ANY KNOWLEDGE ACQUIRED (OR CAPABLE OF BEING ACQUIRED) AT ANY TIME, WHETHER BEFORE OR AFTER THE CLOSING DATE, WITH RESPECT TO THE ACCURACY OR INACCURACY OF OR COMPLIANCE WITH, ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY, COVENANT OR OBLIGATION SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT.

(c) THE OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER ARE NOT CONTINGENT UPON THE ASSERTION OF A CLAIM, DIRECTIVE, ACTION, OR PROCEEDING BY A GOVERNMENT AUTHORITY OR THIRD PARTY.

Section 9.08 Exclusive Remedy. Subject to Section 4.04, no Party shall have any liability, and no Party shall make any claim, for any Liability or other matter (and each of the Parties hereby waives any right of contribution against the other and their respective Affiliates), under, arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any other document, agreement, certificate or other matter delivered pursuant hereto or the transactions contemplated hereby, whether based on contract, tort, strict liability, other Laws or otherwise, except as provided in this Article IX.

[EXHIBIT E]


Execution Version




TRANSITION SERVICES AGREEMENT


This TRANSITION SERVICES AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of , 2017, between Flotek Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Provider”), and National Oilwell DHT, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“NOV” or the “Recipient,” and together with the Provider, the “Parties”).

WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Asset Purchase Agreement, dated May 2, 2017, between the Provider and the Recipient and certain of their respective affiliates (the “Purchase Agreement”), the Provider has agreed to sell, assign and transfer to the Recipient, the Purchased Assets (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).

WHEREAS, the Recipient desires to receive from the Provider, and the Provider is willing to provide to the Recipient, services in respect of the Purchased Assets, on a transitional basis, on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

1. Definitions. Capitalized terms that are not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Purchase Agreement.

2. Provision of Services.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Provider shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide the services set forth on Exhibit A hereto (collectively, the “Services”). The Provider shall cooperate with, facilitate and advise the Recipient and the Recipient’s service providers in the provision of the Services during the term of this Agreement and transition to the Recipient and the Recipient’s service providers’ independent provision of such Services, as the case may be, as reasonably requested by the Recipient during the term of this Agreement. For the purposes of receiving and providing the Services, the Recipient shall include its affiliates and the Provider shall include its affiliates.

(b) Except as otherwise agreed by the Parties, the Provider shall perform the Services to the same standard of care as the Services were performed by the Provider prior to the date of this Agreement.

(c) The Provider shall pay any expenses, fees, or other obligations that the Provider may reasonably incur in connection with the delivery of the Services and shall provide the Recipient with reasonable documentation thereof in connection with the invoices delivered under Section 4.

(d) By executing and delivering this Agreement, the Provider represents and warrants to the Recipient that to its knowledge: (i) it and its affiliates are able to provide the Services and (ii) the provision of such Services as of and immediately following the Closing Date do not conflict with or violate any contract or applicable law.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Provider shall not be obligated to provide any Service hereunder where the provision of such Service

1


requires consent of a third party that has not been obtained; provided that the Provider shall use its (and shall cause its applicable affiliates to use their) reasonable best efforts to obtain all required consents, licenses or approvals necessary to perform the Services (the “Consents”) (that have not already been procured prior to the Closing Date) as soon as reasonably practicable following the date hereof; provided further, that the Provider shall notify the Recipient in writing of any terms to which a proposed Consent is to be subject and shall use its reasonable best efforts to agree with the relevant third party any reasonable amendments to a proposed Consent requested by the Recipient, as the case may be. If the Provider is unable to obtain any required Consents, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith reasonable modifications of the Services so that such Consents are not required. The Recipient shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate in obtaining any such Consent. If, despite use of its reasonable best efforts, the Provider is not able to secure any applicable Consent from a third party, the Provider shall use reasonable best efforts to enter into an acceptable substitute arrangement as promptly as practicable with the Recipient to deliver such Services on substantially the same terms, including subcontract, sublicense or other contractual arrangements, including using reasonable best efforts to facilitate the Recipient’s putting in place similar or replacement arrangements with such third parties, or comparable third party providers with whom the Provider has a commercial relationship.

3. Access; Audits. The Provider shall maintain complete and accurate books and records relating to the costs and charges for Services to the Recipient under this Agreement. Such books and records shall be maintained in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied. The Recipient shall be entitled from time to time, at the Recipient’s cost, to audit the Provider’s books and records related to the Services, using their own personnel or personnel from their independent auditing firm. Discrepancies identified as a result of any audit shall be promptly reconciled in good faith between the Parties in accordance with this Agreement.

4. Pricing, Invoice and Payment. Pricing for the Services shall be as set forth on Exhibit A. Within ten (10) business days after the close of a month, the Provider shall provide an invoice for the Services rendered to the Recipient during the prior month. The Recipient shall pay the Provider within thirty (30) days from its receipt of such invoice from the Provider.

5. Term. Subject to earlier termination by either Party in accordance with Section 6, the Provider shall provide the Services from the Closing Date until the date set forth with respect to such Service in Exhibit A (the “Term”).

6. Termination

(a) The Recipient may terminate this Agreement with respect to any specific Service or all Services for any reason or no reason upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Provider. A termination of a specific Service or Services by the Recipient shall not affect the remaining Services.

(b) The Provider may terminate this Agreement prior to the expiration of its stated term immediately upon written notice to the Recipient if the Recipient breaches their obligations under Section 4 of this Agreement and such breach continues for a period of ten (10) business days following a written request by the Provider to cure such breach (it being agreed that a good-faith dispute with respect to payment under Section 4 shall not constitute a breach by the Recipient hereunder).

2


(c) This Agreement may be terminated (including the Services, in whole or in part) at any time upon the mutual written agreement of the Parties.

(d) To the extent that a termination of this entire Agreement occurs by either the Recipient or the Provider pursuant to this Section 6, (i) the Provider shall have no further obligation to provide the Services and the Recipient shall have no further obligation to purchase any such Services from the Provider and (ii) no Party shall be relieved of its obligations accrued prior to such termination.

(e) Sections 4, 8, 9, 10, and 11 shall survive any early termination of this
Agreement.


7. Cooperation; Representatives. The Parties shall reasonably cooperate with each other in connection with all matters relating to the provision and receipt of the Services. The Provider and the Recipient shall each appoint one or more representatives (each, a “Representative”) to facilitate communications and performance under this Agreement. All Recipient Service requests and queries shall be communicated through the nominated Recipient Representative(s) to the nominated Provider Representative(s) as set forth on Exhibit A hereto. Each Party may treat an act of a Representative of the other Party as being authorized by the other Party without inquiring behind such act or ascertaining whether such Representative had authority to so act. Each Party shall have the right at any time and from time to time to replace its respective Representative(s) by giving notice in writing to the other Party, setting forth the name of (i) the Representative to be replaced and (ii) the replacement, and certifying that the replacement Representative is authorized to act for the Party giving the notice in all matters relating to this Agreement.

8. Confidentiality. In addition to any obligations of confidentiality pursuant to other agreements between or among the Parties, or any of their subsidiaries or affiliates, the Provider shall, and shall cause its affiliates and subsidiaries to, hold in confidence and, without the prior written consent the Recipient, not disclose to any Person, or exploit for their own purposes, any information received by or made available to them from the Recipient hereto (or any of the Recipient’s affiliates or subsidiaries) during the provision of the Services or related to the subject matter or performance of this Agreement. The Provider further agrees that it shall use the information received by or made available to it from the Recipient (or the Recipient’s affiliates or subsidiaries) only in connection with the provision of the Services and for no other purpose whatsoever. For purposes of this Agreement, the foregoing provisions shall not apply to information (i) that is or becomes part of the public domain other than through breach of this Agreement or through the fault of the Provider (or the Provider’s affiliates or subsidiaries), (ii) that is or becomes available to the Provider from a source other than the Recipient (or the Recipient’s affiliates or subsidiaries), which source has no obligation of confidentiality to the Recipient (or the Recipient’s affiliates or subsidiaries), or (iii) to the extent required by a court of competent jurisdiction or other governmental agency or otherwise as required by applicable laws, provided that reasonable notice of said disclosure is provided to the Recipient by the Provider.

9. Compliance; Liability. Except as otherwise expressly provided for herein, each Party shall be responsible for compliance with all applicable laws, for obtaining required Licenses, for the application of all applicable Taxes and for the conduct and compensation of its employees. None of the Parties hereto or any of their respective officers, directors, managers,

3


employees, agents, representatives, successor or assigns, shall be liable to any other Party hereto for any action taken or failure to act by such Party, unless such action taken or failure to act (a) is a breach of any of such Party’s representations, warranties, or covenants in, or obligations under, this Agreement or (b) arises from any gross negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement.

10. Indemnification. Each of the Parties hereto (each an “Indemnitor”) shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold harmless the other Party to this Agreement, its officers, directors, managers, employees, agents, representatives, successors and assigns (the “Indemnitees”) from and against any losses, damages and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees, costs and expenses incurred in defending against the assertion of such liabilities, demands, causes of action, or asserted potential liabilities) (collectively, “Losses”) which may be sustained, suffered or incurred by them and arise from (a) any breach by the Indemnitor of any of its representations, warranties, or covenants in, or obligations under, this Agreement or (b) any gross negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement.

11. Independent Contractor; Subcontractors. At all times during the term of this Agreement, the Provider shall be an independent contractor in providing the Services hereunder with the sole right to supervise, manage, operate, control and direct the performance of the Services and the sole obligation to employ, compensate and manage its employees and business affairs; provided that the Provider shall maintain sufficient resources to maintain its obligations hereunder. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed or construed to create a partnership or joint venture, to create the relationships of employee/employer or principal/agent, or otherwise create any liability whatsoever of any Party with respect to the indebtedness, liabilities, obligations or actions of the other Party or any of its respective officers, directors, employees, stockholders, agent or representatives. Subject to the other terms of this Agreement, the Provider shall have the right to hire or engage one or more subcontractors or other third parties to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement (at no additional cost to the Recipient than if such Service had been provided by the Provider) with the prior written consent of the Recipient (such consent not to be reasonably withheld); provided that the Provider shall remain responsible for the provision of all Services hereunder.

12. Amendments and Waivers. Except as provided herein, any provision of this Agreement (including the Exhibits hereto) may be amended or waived only in a writing signed by the Provider and the Recipient. No waiver of any provision hereunder or any breach or default thereof shall extend to or affect in any way any other provision or prior or subsequent breach or default.

13. Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No Party may assign or subcontract all or any portion of this Agreement, voluntarily or involuntarily, including without limitation by operation of law, without the prior written consent of the other Parties; provided that the Recipient may assign all or any portion of this Agreement and the other agreements contemplated hereby (including its rights and obligations hereunder and thereunder) (a) to any of its lenders as collateral security, (b) to any of its controlled affiliates or (c) in connection with (i) a merger or consolidation involving the Recipient or (ii) a sale of stock or assets of the Recipient or any of its respective affiliates.

14. No Third- Party Beneficiaries. Nothing herein expressed or implied is intended to or shall be construed to confer upon or give to any person, corporation, group or other entity (of any nature) other than the Parties hereto, their successors or permitted assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.

15. Notices. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices, demands and other communications to be given or delivered under or by reason of the provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given (a) when personally delivered, (b) when received via e-mail at the addresses set out below, (c) the day following the day (except if not a business day then the next business day) on which the same has been delivered prepaid to a reputable national overnight air courier service or (d) the third business day following the day on which the same is sent by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, in each case to the respective Parties at the address set forth below, or at such other address as such Party may specify by written notice to the other Party.

The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms. All exhibits attached hereto are hereby incorporated in and made a part of

5


this Agreement as if set forth in full herein. Any capitalized terms used in any exhibit but not otherwise defined therein, shall have the meaning as defined in this Agreement. When a reference is made in this Agreement to a section or exhibit, such reference shall be to a section of, or an exhibit to, this Agreement unless otherwise indicated.

17. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. Execution and delivery of this Agreement by exchange of copies by facsimile or portable document format (pdf) bearing the signature of a Party shall constitute a valid and binding execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Party.

18. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Purchase Agreement and the agreements and documents referred to in the Purchase Agreement, along with the Schedules and Exhibits hereto and thereto, contain the entire agreement and understanding between the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede any prior agreements and understandings between the Parties relating to such subject matter.

19. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

20. Governing Law. This Agreement will be construed, interpreted and enforced in accordance with, and the respective rights and obligations of the Parties will be governed by, the laws of the State of Texas. Each Party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Texas in and for Harris County and the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas and waives objection to the venue of any proceeding in such court or that such court provides an inappropriate forum.

21. Force Majeure. Neither Party shall be held liable or responsible to the other Party nor be deemed to have defaulted under or breached this Agreement for failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any term of this Agreement to the extent such failure or delay is caused by or results from causes beyond the reasonable control of the affected Party, including, but not limited to, fire; floods; storms; embargoes, war or acts of war (declared or undeclared); insurrections, riots or other civil commotions; acts of terrorism, strikes, lockouts, or other labor disturbances; explosions; sabotage; national shortages of fuel, power, raw materials or components; acts of God; or acts, omissions, or delays in acting by any governmental or military authority (collectively, “Force Majeure”); provided, however, it is understood that (i) this Section 21 only operates to suspend, and not to discharge, a Party’s obligations under this Agreement, and that when the causes of the failure or delay are removed or alleviated the affected Party shall resume performance of its obligations hereunder and (ii) this Section 21 shall not excuse a Party’s obligation to pay money; provided, further, that to the extent any Services are not performed or fulfilled due to a Force Majeure, the Recipient shall not be required to pay for such Services. A Party that is unable to fulfill its obligations due to any Force Majeure event shall (1) promptly after the occurrence thereof give notice to the other Party with details of such event and (2) use its commercially reasonable efforts to avoid, mitigate, remedy or remove such event as promptly

6


as practicable and resume its performance under this Agreement. If the Provider is unable to provide any of the Services due to Force Majeure, both parties shall exert commercially reasonable efforts to cooperatively seek a solution that is mutually satisfactory, such as the subcontracting of all or part of the provision of the Services under the supervision of the Provider for the period of time during or affected by the Force Majeure. Promptly on becoming aware of Force Majeure causing a delay in performance or preventing performance of any obligations imposed by this Agreement (and termination of such delay), the Recipient shall have the right, but not the obligation, to engage subcontractors to perform such obligations for the duration of such period that Force Majeure delays or prevents the performance of such obligation by a Party.
