FLOTEK INDUSTRIES, INC.

2010 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

1. Grant of Nonqualified Stock Option. Subject to the conditions described in this agreement (the “Award Agreement”) and in the Flotek Industries, Inc 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time (the “Plan”), Flotek Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby agrees to grant to John W. Chisholm (“Participant”) the right and option (the “Option”) to purchase, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, all or any part of an aggregate of 400,000 shares of Common Stock, subject to adjustment as set forth in the Plan.

2. Nonqualified Stock Option Status: The Option is intended to be a non-qualified stock option, and is not intended to be treated as an option that complies with Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

3. Grant Date: April 8, 2011.

4. Exercise Price: The Exercise Price shall be $9.19 per share of Common Stock covered by the Option, which has been determined to be no less than the FMV Per Share on the Grant Date.

5. Vesting:

(a) Vesting Schedule. Subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and this Award Agreement, including Participant’s continued employment/service with the Company through April 8, 2013, the Option shall vest and become exercisable on April 8, 2013.

(b) At any time, the portion of the Option which has become vested and exercisable as described in this Award Agreement is hereinafter referred to as the “Vested Portion.”

(c) In the event of the occurrence of any of the following:

(i) Participant’s Termination for a reason other than a reason that cause Vesting pursuant to Section 5(d) of this Agreement;

(ii) the Company’s failure to achieve “Adjusted EBITDA” for 2011 which equals or exceeds the minimum amount required pursuant to the 2011 Management Incentive Plan of the Company for participants thereunder to receive any bonus whatsoever pursuant to the terms thereof; or


(iii) the disapproval of the Option by the “Required Lenders” pursuant to Section 5.14 of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of March 31, 2010 among the Company, Whitebox Advisors LLC, as Administrative Agent, and the Lenders parties thereto, as amended, modified or restated,

the Option shall, to the extent not then vested, be canceled by the Company without consideration and the Vested Portion of the Option shall remain exercisable for the period set forth in Sections 6(a) or 6(b).

“Adjusted EBITDA” means the EBITDA of the Company, plus any amounts deducted in computing EBITDA with respect to stock compensation, financing transaction costs (whether paid in cash or not), and other noncash and/or nonrecurring charges not directly related to the ongoing operations of the Company. “EBITDA” means the sum of (a) the Company’s net income after taxes as determined in accordance with GAAP, excluding, however, extraordinary items, including any net non-cash gain or loss arising from the sale, exchange, retirement or other disposition of capital assets (such term to include all fixed assets and all securities) other than in the ordinary course of business, and any write-up or write-down of assets, and the cumulative effect of any change in GAAP plus (b) to the extent deducted in determining the Company’s net income, total cash interest expense and other fees and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with any debt whether paid or accrued, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and other non-cash charges. Specific determination of Adjusted EBITDA shall be based solely upon the judgment of the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors upon recommendations received from the Company’s Chief Accounting Officer.

(d) If not already forfeited pursuant to Section 5(c), the occurrence of any of the following events shall cause the portion of the Option which is not yet Vested to be considered immediately Vested: (i) a Change of Control, (ii) the death of Participant, (iii) a Termination by the Company which is not for Cause, (iv) a Termination by the Participant which is for Good Reason (as hereinafter defined), or (iv) a Termination which is because of the Disability of Participant. For purposes hereof, “Good Reason” shall exist upon the occurrence of one of the following Company actions (unless the Participant consents in writing to such action(s)): (i) a material reduction of the compensation and benefits to which the Participant was entitled immediately prior to such reduction, (ii) a material reduction in the duties, authority or responsibilities relative to the duties, authority or responsibilities of the Participant as in effect immediately prior to such reduction, or (iii) the relocation of Participant to a facility or a location more than fifty (50) miles from Participant’s then present location; provided, however, that (A) Participant must provide the Company with written notice of the occurrence of such action(s) within 60 days of the initial occurrence of such action(s) and of Participant’s intent to terminate the term of this Agreement based on such action(s) and (B) the Company will have 30 days from the date that such written notice is provided by the Participant to cure such action(s).

However, the Company shall not be liable to the Participant for damages relating to any delays in issuing the certificates to him, any loss of the certificates, or any mistakes or errors in the issuance of the certificates or in the certificates themselves.

(v) In the event of the Participant’s death, the Vested Portion of the Option shall remain exercisable by the Participant’s executor or administrator, or the person or persons to whom the Participant’s rights under this Award Agreement shall pass by will or by the laws of descent and distribution as the case may be, to the extent set forth in Section 6(a). Any heir or legatee of Participant shall take rights herein granted subject to the terms and conditions hereof.

12. Severability. In the event that any provision of this Award Agreement is, becomes or is deemed to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable for any reason, or would disqualify the Plan or this Award Agreement under any law deemed applicable by the Board or the Committee, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended as necessary to conform to the applicable laws, or if it cannot be construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Board or the Committee, materially altering the intent of the Plan or this Award Agreement, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction, the Participant or this Award Agreement, and the remainder of this Award Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

13. Terms of the Plan Control. This Award Agreement and the underlying Award are made pursuant to the Plan. Notwithstanding anything in this Award Agreement to the contrary, the terms of the Plan, as amended from time to time and interpreted and applied by the Committee, shall govern and take precedence. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Plan, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.

14. Governing Law. This Award Agreement shall be construed in accordance with (excluding any conflict or choice of law provisions of) the laws of the State of Delaware to the extent federal law does not supersede and preempt Delaware law.

Participant hereby consents to any and all procedures the Company has established or may establish for an electronic signature system for delivery and acceptance of any such documents that the Company may be required to deliver, and agrees that his electronic signature is the same as, and shall have the same force and effect as, his manual signature.

16. Transferability. The Option may not be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by the Participant otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and any such purported assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance shall be void and unenforceable against the Company or any Affiliate; provided that the designation of a beneficiary shall not constitute an assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance. No such permitted transfer of the Option to heirs or legatees of the Participant shall be effective to bind the Company unless the Committee shall have been furnished with written notice thereof and a copy of such evidence as the Committee may deem necessary to establish the validity of the transfer and the acceptance by the transferee or transferees of the terms and conditions hereof. During the Participant’s lifetime, the Option is exercisable only by the Participant.
