RECITALS

WHEREAS, Smart Sand and Buyer have entered into an Amended and Restated Master Product Purchase Agreement, dated as of November 6, 2015 (the “Agreement”);

WHEREAS, Smart Sand and Buyer desire to amend the Agreement to modify certain pricing and volume terms set forth therein; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 15.1 of the Agreement, the Agreement may not be changed or amended except by a writing executed by both parties.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the mutual promises set forth herein, sufficiency of which is acknowledged by the undersigned, the Buyer and Smart Sand hereby agree as follows:

1. AMENDMENT TO THE AGREEMENT. The Agreement shall be amended as follows:

1.1 The first paragraph of Section 1.2 shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

“For purposes of this Agreement: (i) the “Interim Period” shall mean the period beginning on *** and ending on 11:59 p.m. on ***; and (ii) a “Contract Year” shall mean the period beginning on *** of a given year and ending on 11:59 p.m. on *** of the immediately following year. For the avoidance of doubt, ***.”

1.2 Section 1.4 shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

“Subject to Section 1.5 below, in the event that Buyer purchases less than the Minimum Tons per Year of Products (as adjusted pursuant to Section 1.5 below) during any Contract Year during the Term and has not, in the prior Contract Year, purchased an amount exceeding *** tons (“Prior Excess”) by an amount greater than or equal to any such shortfall, Buyer shall pay to Smart Sand on or before the date which is *** following the start of the ensuing Contract Year (or within *** of notice of such shortfall, whichever is later) an amount equal to *** multiplied by the difference between the applicable Minimum Tons per Year stated above and the actual Tons purchased by the Buyer during such Contract Year (“Actual Tons”) plus the Prior Excess *** (*** * (Minimum Tons per Year – (Actual Tons + Prior Excess)) – ***) (the “True Up Payment”).”

1.3 Section 1.5 shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

“1.5 (a) So long as Buyer is not in breach of this Agreement, Buyer may choose to defer up to *** Products per Contract Year until ***,

which shall reduce the Minimum Tons per Year for any Contract Year in which any such deferral occurs by the amount so deferred in such Contract Year; provided, however, that the types of Products that Buyer chooses to defer must be consistent with the product mix set forth on Appendix B (i.e. ***). If, in any Contract Year, there is Prior Excess from the preceding Contract Year remaining after applying such Prior Excess to the True Up Payment in accordance with Section 1.4, then the total amount of deferred tons of Products (the “Outstanding Deferred Tons”) shall be reduced by an amount equal to such remaining Prior Excess. For the avoidance of doubt: (i) Buyer shall not have any right to defer the purchase of Products during *** and (ii) notwithstanding any deferrals provided for under this Agreement, Buyer shall remain committed to purchasing *** tons of Products under this Agreement.

(b) During the Term Extension (as defined in Section 7.1), the Minimum Tons per Year shall be the lesser of *** tons or ***. By way of example, if at ***, the Outstanding Deferred Tons is *** tons, then the Minimum Tons per Year in ***.

(c) Buyer shall pay to Smart Sand on or before the date that is thirty *** following the end of the Term an amount (the “Cumulative Shortfall Payment”) equal to *** multiplied by the difference between the aggregate Minimum Tons per Year during the Term (i.e. *** tons) and the actual tons of Products (including any tonnages of substituted *** at the ratio and proportion set forth in Section 1.1. and Appendix B) purchased by the Buyer during the Term (“Cumulative Purchased Tons”) plus tons of Replacement Products (the resulting amount, the “Cumulative Net Tons”) *** (i.e. (i) Cumulative Net Tons = *** - (Cumulative Purchased Tons + tons of Replacement Products), and (ii) Cumulative Shortfall Payment = (Cumulative Net Tons * ***) – prior True Up Payments – ***. If the Cumulative Net Tons is equal to or less than ***, then the Cumulative Shortfall Payment shall be ***.

(d) If Buyer does not pay any True Up Payment when due (and fails to cure such nonpayment within *** after such True Up Payment is due), or if Buyer wrongfully rejects any Products, in addition to (and not in lieu of) any other remedies available at law or under this Agreement, Smart Sand may, in its sole discretion, eliminate Buyer’s deferral right hereunder by providing written notice of such elimination to Buyer, in which case Buyer shall promptly (but in no event greater than *** after Smart Sand’s notice) pay to Smart Sand an amount equal to the product of *** multiplied by the then Outstanding Deferred Tons.”

1.4 Section 2.6 shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

“Commencing on ***, and continuing on or about the first day of each month during the Term, Smart Sand will invoice Buyer for a non-refundable capacity reservation charge of *** per month (the “Reservation Charge” ), which shall be paid by Buyer within *** after the date of each such invoice. The Reservation Charge shall be payable regardless of whether Buyer purchases any Products during any month during the Term. ***.”

1.5 The reference to “Interim Period” in Section 2.7 shall be deleted and replaced with “Term”.

“7.1 Subject to the immediately following sentence, this Agreement shall become effective as of the *** (the “Effective Date”), and shall expire at 11:59p.m. on *** (the “Term”) unless sooner terminated as provided herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Term shall be extended automatically and without any further action of the parties for that number of years (the “Term Extension”) calculated by dividing *** by *** and rounding up the quotient to the nearest whole number. By way of example, if *** at the end of *** is *** tons, then the Term Extension shall be *** and the Agreement will expire at 11:59p.m. on ***, unless sooner terminated as provided herein. For the avoidance of doubt, any reference to the “Term” in this Agreement shall include the additional years of the Term Extension.”

1.7 Subsection (C) of Section 7.4 shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

“an amount equal to the difference between: (i) the Prepayment Amount (or if the entire Prepayment Amount has not yet been paid to Smart Sand, such lesser amount that has been paid to Smart Sand in accordance with Section 2.5), and (ii) the total payment reductions for purchased Products in connection with the Prepayment Amount during the Term; ***”

1.8 A new Subsection (D) is added to Section 7.4 to provide in its entirety as followed:
