(the “Company”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 2, 2017, pertaining to the registration of an aggregate of 850,000 shares (collectively, the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), comprised of (i) 700,000 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance pursuant to the Amended and Restated 2014 CARBO Ceramics Inc. Omnibus Incentive Plan and (ii) 150,000 shares of Common Stock for offer and sale pursuant to the CARBO Ceramics Inc. Savings and Profit Sharing Plan.
On March 29, 2020, the Company and its direct wholly owned subsidiaries Asset Guard Products Inc. and StrataGen, Inc. filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division (the “Bankruptcy Court”).
