Amendment No. 1 to Employment Agreement, dated October 18, 2019, by and between Flotek Industries, Inc. and John W. Chisholm

The sum of $3,612,000, as adjusted as set forth in Section 19(b) below, which shall be payable in twenty-four (24) monthly installments equal to one-twenty-fourth of such severance compensation as so adjusted, subject to Section 19(b) below, with the first payment made on the last day of the month in which the Release Date falls, and subsequent payments on the last day of each of the next twenty-three (23) full calendar months following the Release Date, in each case subject to any required withholding.

Employee hereby grants the Company an express contractual right to offset any amounts (i) owed by Employee to the Company under that certain Guaranty, dated May 8, 2019, made by Employee in favor of the Company (the “Guaranty”), (ii) previously overpaid to Employee for salary or bonus, whether hereunder or otherwise, and (iii) underwithheld from Employee with respect to taxes, in each case against any amounts owed by the Company to Employee hereunder.

Without limiting the generality of, but in furtherance of, the offset right set forth in Section 19(a), Employee and the Company agree that any amounts due to the Company from Employee under the Guaranty and any outstanding amounts previously overpaid to Employee as salary or bonus or underwithheld from Employee with respect to taxes, in each case as of the Release Date, shall be deducted from the sum of $3,612,000 otherwise payable under Section 5(a)(i) above, and, to the extent applicable, Employee shall be deemed to have paid such deducted amount to the Company under the Guaranty.

In addition, the Company may withhold from payment of any sums otherwise payable under Section 5(a)(i) above, as reduced in accordance with this Section 19(b), any amounts that it reasonably determines may become payable by Employee to the Company under the Guaranty for so long as the Company reasonably determines, and the Company shall increase or decrease the amount of the monthly payment required under Section 5(a)(i) above from time to time to reflect the Company’s then current reasonable determination of amounts that then are or may become due to the Company from Employee under the Guaranty.

Upon any amounts becoming due to the Company from Employee under the Guaranty after the Release Date, the Company shall deduct such amounts from the amounts previously withheld from Employee and, to the extent applicable, to be paid in the future under this Section 19(b) to Employee, and Employee shall be deemed to have paid such deducted amount to the Company under the Guaranty.

To the extent that the Company has withheld any amounts from Employee pursuant to this Section 19(b) and continues to withhold such amounts after the date of the last monthly payment under Section 5(a)(i) above and has not deducted such amounts pursuant to Section 19(b)(iii), the Company shall, upon any determination thereafter that all or any portion of such withheld amounts are no longer potentially due to the Company under the Guaranty, promptly pay such amount to Employee.

Nothing herein shall be deemed to amend any of the terms of the Guaranty, and such Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the terms hereof.

In no event shall Employee be credited with payments under the Guaranty pursuant to Section 19(b) in excess of amounts relating to obligations under the Guaranty actually deducted by the Company from the $3,612,000 that would otherwise have been payable to Employee under Section 5(a)(i). The offset provisions of this Section 19 shall not be the Company’s exclusive remedy for recovery from Employee of any and all amounts due from Employee to the Company under the Guaranty or otherwise.
