 Exhibit 4.4 

NEXTIER OILFIELD SOLUTIONS INC. (FORMER C&J
ENERGY) 
 MANAGEMENT INCENTIVE PLAN 

 

	 	1.	 Purpose. 



The purpose of the Plan is to assist the Company to attract, retain, incentivize and motivate officers and employees of, consultants to, and non-employee directors providing services to, the Company or its Subsidiaries and to promote the success of the Company’s business by providing such participating individuals with a proprietary interest in the
performance of the Company. The Company believes that this incentive program will cause participating officers, employees, consultants and non-employee directors to increase their interest in the welfare of
the Company or its Subsidiaries and to align those interests with those of the shareholders of the Company, its Subsidiaries and Affiliates. 

The Plan was originally adopted by C&J Energy Services, Inc. on January 6, 2017, and was subsequently amended effective
January 31, 2017. In connection with the transactions effected pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Plan and Awards outstanding immediately following the closing of such transactions (the “Rollover Awards”) were assigned to,
and assumed by, the Company pursuant to the Merger Agreement, effective as of the consummation of the Merger. The Plan is now amended and restated, effective October 31, 2019, to reflect such assignment to, and assumption of, the Plan by the
Company and to reflect certain tax law changes.

100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the Option is granted (110% in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten-Percent Shareholder). 

5.3 Maximum Duration. Options granted hereunder shall be for such term as the Committee shall determine; provided that an
Incentive Stock Option shall not be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date it is granted (five (5) years in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten-Percent
Shareholder) and a Nonqualified Stock Option shall not be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date it is granted; provided, further, however, that unless the Committee provides otherwise, an Option (other than an
Incentive Stock Option) may, upon the death of the Participant prior to the expiration of the Option, be exercised for up to one (1) year following the date of the Participant’s death, even if such period extends beyond ten (10) years
from the date the Option is granted. The Committee may, subsequent to the granting of any Option, extend the period within which the Option may be exercised (including following a Participant’s Termination), but in no event shall the period be
extended to a date that is later than the earlier of the latest date on which the Option could have been exercised and the 10th anniversary of the date of grant of the Option.

time during any calendar year exceeds $100,000, such Incentive Stock Options shall be treated as Nonqualified Stock Options. In applying the limitation in the preceding sentence in the case of multiple Option grants, unless otherwise required by
applicable law, Options which were intended to be Incentive Stock Options shall be treated as Nonqualified Stock Options according to the order in which they were granted such that the most recently granted Options are first treated as Nonqualified
Stock Options. 
 5.6 Method of Exercise. The exercise of an Option shall be made only by giving notice in the form and to the Person
designated by the Company, specifying the number of Shares to be exercised and, to the extent applicable, accompanied by payment therefor and otherwise in accordance with the Award Agreement pursuant to which the Option was granted. The Option Price
for any Shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of an Option shall be paid in any or any combination of the following forms: (a) cash or its equivalent (e.g., a check) or (b) if permitted by the Committee, the transfer, either actually
or by attestation, to the Company of Shares held by the Participant, such transfer to be upon such terms and conditions as determined by the Committee or (c) in the form of other property as determined by the Committee. Any Shares transferred
to the Company as payment of the exercise price under an Option shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the last business day preceding the date of exercise of such Option. In addition, (a) the Committee may provide for the payment of the
Option Price through Share repurchase, as a result of which a number of Shares issued upon exercise of an Option having a Fair Market Value equal to the Option Price would be repurchased, and (b) Options may be exercised through a registered
broker-dealer pursuant to such cashless exercise procedures that are, from time to time, deemed acceptable by the Committee. If requested by the Committee, the Participant shall deliver the Award Agreement evidencing the Option to the Company, which
shall endorse thereon a notation of such exercise and return such Award Agreement to the Participant. No fractional Shares (or cash in lieu thereof) shall be issued upon exercise of an Option and the number of Shares that may be purchased upon
exercise shall be rounded to the nearest number of whole Shares. 
 5.7 Rights of Participants. No Participant shall be deemed for
any purpose to be the owner of any Shares subject to any Option unless and until (a) the Option shall have been exercised pursuant to the terms thereof, (b) the Company shall have issued and delivered Shares (whether or not certificated)
to the Participant, a securities broker acting on behalf of the 

  
 12 













 
Participant or such other nominee of the Participant and (c) the Participant’s name, or the name of his or her broker or other nominee, shall have been entered as a shareholder of
record on the books of the Company. Thereupon, the Participant shall have full voting, dividend and other ownership rights with respect to such Shares, subject to such terms and conditions as may be set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. 

 

	 	6.	 Share Appreciation Rights. 



6.1 Grant. The Committee may grant Share Appreciation Rights to Eligible Individuals in accordance with the Plan, the terms and
conditions of which shall be set forth in an Award Agreement. A Share Appreciation Right may be granted (a) at any time if unrelated to an Option or (b) if related to an Option, either at the time of grant or at any time thereafter during
the term of the Option. 
 6.2 Terms; Duration. Share Appreciation Rights shall contain such terms and conditions as to
exercisability, vesting and duration as the Committee shall determine, but in no event shall they have a term of greater than ten (10) years; provided, however, that unless the Committee provides otherwise, a Share Appreciation
Right may, upon the death of the Participant prior to the expiration of the Award, be exercised for up to one (1) year following the date of the Participant’s death even if such period extends beyond ten (10) years from the date the
Share Appreciation Right is granted. The Committee may, subsequent to the granting of any Share Appreciation Right, extend the period within which the Share Appreciation Right may be exercised (including following a Participant’s Termination),
but in no event shall the period be extended to a date that is later than the earlier of the latest date on which the Share Appreciation Right could have been exercised and the 10th anniversary of the date of grant of the Share Appreciation Right.

 6.3 Amount Payable. Upon exercise of a Share Appreciation Right, the Participant shall be entitled to receive an amount determined
by multiplying (i) the excess of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the last business day preceding the date of exercise of such Share Appreciation Right over (a) with respect to a Share Appreciation Right unrelated to an Option, the Fair
Market Value of a Share on the date the Share Appreciation Right was granted or (b) with respect to a Share Appreciation Right related to an Option, the Option Price specified in the related Option (in each case, the “Base Price”) by
(ii) the number of Shares as to which the Share Appreciation Right is being exercised. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may limit in any manner the amount payable with respect to any Share Appreciation Right by including such a
limit in the Award Agreement evidencing the Share Appreciation Right at the time it is granted. 
 6.4 Method of Exercise. Share
Appreciation Rights shall be exercised by a Participant only by giving notice in the form and to the Person designated by the Company, specifying the number of Shares with respect to which the Share Appreciation Right is being exercised. If
requested by the Committee, the Participant shall deliver the Award Agreement evidencing the Share Appreciation Right being exercised, which shall endorse thereon a notation of such exercise and return such Award Agreement to the Participant. 

  
 13 













 6.5 Form of Payment. Payment of the amount payable upon exercise of a Share
Appreciation Right may be made in the discretion of the Committee solely in whole Shares in a number determined at their Fair Market Value on the last business day preceding the date of exercise of the Share Appreciation Right, solely in cash or in
a combination of cash and Shares. If the Committee decides to make full payment in Shares and the amount payable results in a fractional Share, payment for the fractional Share will be made in cash. 

 

	 	7.	 Dividend Equivalent Rights.  



The Committee may grant Dividend Equivalent Rights, either in tandem with an Award or as a separate Award, to Eligible Individuals in
accordance with the Plan. The terms and conditions applicable to each Dividend Equivalent Right shall be specified in the Award Agreement evidencing the Award. Amounts payable in respect of Dividend Equivalent Rights may be payable currently or, if
applicable, deferred until the lapsing of restrictions on such Dividend Equivalent Rights or until the vesting, exercise, payment, settlement or other lapse of restrictions on the Award to which the Dividend Equivalent Rights relate. In the event
that the amount payable in respect of Dividend Equivalent Rights is to be deferred, the Committee shall determine whether such amounts are to be held in cash or reinvested in Shares or deemed (notionally) to be reinvested in Shares. Dividend
Equivalent Rights may be settled in cash, Shares, other Awards, other property or a combination of the foregoing, in a single installment or multiple installments, as determined by the Committee. The terms and conditions of any grants of Dividend
Equivalent Rights as set forth in an Award Agreement shall comply with the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules. 
  

	 	8.	 Restricted Shares; Restricted Share Units.  



8.1 Restricted Shares. The Committee may grant Restricted Shares to Eligible Individuals in accordance with the Plan, the terms and
conditions of which shall be set forth in an Award Agreement. Each Award Agreement shall contain such restrictions, terms and conditions as the Committee may, in its discretion, determine and (without limiting the generality of the foregoing) such
Award Agreements may require that an appropriate legend be placed on Share certificates. Shares in a book entry account in Participant’s name may have appropriate stop transfer instructions to the account custodian, administrator or the
Company’s corporate secretary as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. Restricted Shares shall be subject to the terms and provisions set forth below in this Section 8.1. 

(a) Rights of Participant. Restricted Shares granted pursuant to an Award hereunder shall be issued in the name of the Participant as
soon as reasonably practicable after the Award is granted provided that the Participant has executed an Award Agreement evidencing the Award and any other documents which the Committee may require as a condition to the issuance of such
Shares. At the discretion of the Committee, Shares issued in connection with an Award of Restricted Shares may be held in escrow by an agent (which may be the Company) designated by the Committee. Unless the Committee determines otherwise and as set
forth in the Award Agreement, upon the issuance of the Shares, the Participant shall have all of the rights of a shareholder with respect to such Shares, including the right to vote the Shares and to receive all dividends or other distributions paid
or made with respect to the Shares. 

  
 14 













 (b) Terms and Conditions. Each Award Agreement shall specify the number of Shares
subject to the Restricted Share Award, the conditions which must be satisfied in order for the Restricted Shares to vest and the circumstances under which the Award will be forfeited. 

(c) Delivery of Shares. Upon the lapse of the restrictions on Restricted Shares, the Committee shall take any action it determines is
necessary to evidence such lapse of restrictions which may include causing a share certificate or evidence of book entry Shares to be delivered to the Participant with respect to such Restricted Shares, free of all restrictions hereunder. 

(d) Treatment of Dividends. At the time Restricted Shares are granted, the Committee may, in its discretion, determine that the
payment to the Participant of dividends, or a specified portion thereof, declared or paid on such Shares by the Company shall be (i) deferred until the lapsing of the restrictions imposed upon such Shares and (ii) held by the Company for
the account of the Participant until such time. In the event that dividends are to be deferred, the Committee shall determine whether such dividends are to be reinvested in Shares (which shall be held as additional Restricted Shares) or held in
cash. Payment of deferred dividends in respect of Restricted Shares (whether held in cash or as additional Restricted Shares), shall be made upon the lapsing of restrictions imposed on the Shares in respect of which the deferred dividends were paid,
and any dividends deferred in respect of any Restricted Shares shall be forfeited upon the forfeiture of such Shares. 
 8.2 Restricted
Share Unit Awards. The Committee may grant Awards of Restricted Share Units to Eligible Individuals in accordance with the Plan, the terms and conditions of which shall be set forth in an Award Agreement. Each such Award Agreement shall contain
such restrictions, terms and conditions as the Committee may, in its discretion, determine. Awards of Restricted Share Units shall be subject to the terms and provisions set forth below in this Section 8.2. 

(a) Payment of Awards. Each Restricted Share Unit shall represent the right of the Participant to receive a payment upon vesting of the
Restricted Share Unit or on any later date specified by the Committee of an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share as of the date the Restricted Share Unit becomes vested or such other date as determined by the Committee at the time the
Restricted Share Unit is granted. The Committee may, at the time a Restricted Share Unit is granted, provide a limitation on the amount payable in respect of each Restricted Share Unit. The Committee may provide for the settlement of Restricted
Share Units in cash or with Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount to which the Participant has become entitled or a combination thereof. 
  

	 	9.	 Performance Awards. 



9.1 Performance Units and Performance Share Units. The Committee may grant Awards of Performance Units and/or Performance Share Units to
Eligible Individuals in accordance with the Plan, the terms and conditions of which shall be set forth in an Award Agreement. 

  
 15 













 (a) Performance Units. Performance Units shall be denominated in a specified dollar
amount and, contingent upon the attainment of specified Performance Objectives within the Performance Cycle and such other vesting conditions as may be determined by the Committee (including without limitation, a continued employment requirement
following the end of the applicable Performance Cycle), represent the right to receive payment as provided in Sections 9.1(c) and (d) of the specified dollar amount or a percentage of the specified dollar amount depending on the level of
Performance Objective attained; provided, however, that the Committee may at the time a Performance Unit is granted specify a maximum amount payable in respect of a vested Performance Unit. 

(b) Performance Share Units. Performance Share Units shall be denominated in Shares and, contingent upon the attainment of specified
Performance Objectives within the Performance Cycle and such other vesting conditions as may be determined by the Committee, (including without limitation, a continued employment requirement following the end of the applicable Performance Cycle),
represent the right to receive payment as provided in Sections 9.1(c) and (d) of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the Performance Share Unit was granted, the date the Performance Share Unit became vested or any other date
specified by the Committee or a percentage of such amount depending on the level of Performance Objective attained; provided, however, that the Committee may at the time a Performance Share Unit is granted specify a maximum amount
payable in respect of a vested Performance Share Unit. 
 (c) Terms and Conditions; Vesting and Forfeiture. Each Award Agreement
shall specify the number of Performance Units or Performance Share Units to which it relates, the Performance Objectives and other conditions which must be satisfied in order for the Performance Units or Performance Share Units to vest and the
Performance Cycle within which such Performance Objectives must be satisfied and the circumstances under which the Award will be forfeited; provided, however, that no Performance Cycle for Performance Units or Performance Share Units
shall be less than one (1) year. 
 (d) Payment of Awards. Subject to Section 9.3(c), payment to Participants in respect
of vested Performance Share Units and Performance Units shall be made as soon as practicable after the last day of the Performance Cycle to which such Award relates or at such other time or times as the Committee may determine that the Award has
become vested. Such payments may be made entirely in Shares valued at their Fair Market Value, entirely in cash, other Awards, other property or in any combination of the foregoing as the Committee in its discretion shall determine at any time prior
to such payment; provided, however, that if the Committee in its discretion determines to make such payment entirely or partially in Restricted Shares, the Committee must determine the extent to which such payment will be in Restricted
Shares and the terms of such Restricted Shares at the time the Award is granted. 
 9.2 Performance-Based Restricted Shares. The
Committee may grant Performance-Based Restricted Shares to Eligible Individuals in accordance with the Plan, the terms and conditions of which shall be set forth in an Award Agreement. Each Award Agreement may require that an appropriate legend be
placed on Share certificates. Shares in a book entry account in Participant’s name may have appropriate stop transfer instructions to the account custodian, administrator or the Company’s corporate secretary as determined by the Committee
in its sole discretion. Performance-Based Restricted Shares shall be subject to the following terms and provisions: 

  
 16 













 (a) Rights of Participant. Performance-Based Restricted Shares shall be issued in the
name of the Participant as soon as reasonably practicable after the Award is granted or at such other time or times as the Committee may determine; provided, however, that no Performance-Based Restricted Shares shall be issued until
the Participant has executed an Award Agreement evidencing the Award, and any other documents which the Committee may require as a condition to the issuance of such Performance-Based Restricted Shares. At the discretion of the Committee, Shares
issued in connection with an Award of Performance-Based Restricted Shares may be held in escrow by an agent (which may be the Company) designated by the Committee. Unless the Committee determines otherwise and as set forth in the Award Agreement,
upon issuance of the Shares, the Participant shall have all of the rights of a shareholder with respect to such Shares, including the right to vote the Shares and to receive all dividends or other distributions paid or made with respect to the
Shares. 
 (b) Terms and Conditions. Each Award Agreement shall specify the number of Shares subject to the Performance-Based
Restricted Share Award, the Performance Objectives and other conditions which must be satisfied in order for the Performance-Based Restricted Shares to vest, the Performance Cycle within which such Performance Objectives must be satisfied and the
circumstances under which the Award will be forfeited; provided, however, that no Performance Cycle for Performance-Based Restricted Shares shall be less than one (1) year. 

(c) Treatment of Dividends. At the time the Performance-Based Restricted Shares are granted, the Committee may, in its discretion,
determine that the payment to the Participant of dividends, or a specified portion thereof, declared or paid on Shares represented by such Award which have been issued by the Company to the Participant shall be (i) deferred until the lapsing of
the restrictions imposed upon such Performance-Based Restricted Shares and (ii) held by the Company for the account of the Participant until such time. In the event that dividends are to be deferred, the Committee shall determine whether such
dividends are to be reinvested in Shares (which shall be held as additional Performance-Based Restricted Shares) or held in cash. If deferred dividends are to be held in cash, there may be credited interest on the amount of the account at such times
and at a rate per annum as the Committee, in its discretion, may determine. Payment of deferred dividends in respect of Performance-Based Restricted Shares (whether held in cash or in additional Performance-Based Restricted Shares), together with
interest accrued thereon, if any, shall be made upon the lapsing of restrictions imposed on the Performance-Based Restricted Shares in respect of which the deferred dividends were paid, and any dividends deferred (together with any interest accrued
thereon) in respect of any Performance-Based Restricted Shares shall be forfeited upon the forfeiture of such Performance-Based Restricted Shares. 

(d) Delivery of Shares. Upon the lapse of the restrictions on Performance-Based Restricted Shares awarded hereunder, the Committee
shall take any action it determines is necessary to evidence such lapse of restrictions which may include causing a share certificate or evidence of book entry Shares to be delivered to the Participant with respect to such Performance-Based
Restricted Shares, free of all restrictions hereunder. 

  
 17 













 9.3 Performance Objectives. 

(a) Establishment. Performance Objectives for Performance Awards may be expressed in terms of (i) earnings per share (diluted or
basic), (ii) operating income, (iii) return on equity or assets, (iv) cash flow, (v) net cash flow, (vi) cash flow from operations; (vii) EBITDA, (viii) revenues, (ix) revenue ratios; (x) cost reductions;
(xi) cost ratios; (xii) overall revenue or sales growth, (xiii) expense reduction or management, (xiv) market position or share, (xv) total shareholder return, (xvi) return on investment, (xvii) earnings before

operating profit after tax, (xxv) return on capital, (xxvi) return on invested capital or (xxvii) any combination of the foregoing. Performance Objectives may be based on any of the foregoing or any other performance criteria as may
be established by the Committee. Performance Objectives may be in respect of the performance of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, any of its Divisions or any combination thereof. Performance Objectives may be absolute or relative (to prior
performance of the Company or to the performance of one or more other entities or external indices) and may be expressed in terms of a progression within a specified range. 

(b) Effect of Certain Events. The Committee may, at the time the Performance Objectives in respect of a Performance Award are
established, provide for the manner in which performance will be measured against the Performance Objectives to reflect the impact of specified events, including any one or more of the following with respect to the Performance Cycle (i) the
gain, loss, income or expense resulting from changes in accounting principles or tax laws that become effective during the Performance Cycle; (ii) the gain, loss, income or expense reported publicly by the Company with respect to the
Performance Cycle that are extraordinary or unusual in nature or infrequent in occurrence; (iii) the gains or losses resulting from and the direct expenses incurred in connection with, the disposition of a business, or the sale of investments
or non-core assets; (iv) the gain or loss from all or certain claims and/or litigation and all or certain insurance recoveries relating to claims or litigation; or (v) the impact of investments or
acquisitions made during the year or, to the extent provided by the Committee, any prior year. The events may relate to the Company as a whole or to any part of the Company’s business or operations, as determined by the Committee at the
time the Performance Objectives are established. Any adjustments based on the effect of certain events are to be determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and standards, unless another objective method of measurement is
designated by the Committee. 
 (c) Determination of Performance. Prior to the vesting, payment, settlement or lapsing of any
restrictions with respect to any Performance Award, the Committee shall certify in writing that the applicable Performance Objectives have been satisfied. In respect of a Performance Award, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, reduce the
amount of cash paid or number of Shares to be issued or that have been issued and that become vested or on which restrictions lapse. 
  

	 	10.	 Share Awards, Other Share-Based Awards, Cash Awards and Substitute Awards. 




  
 18 













 10.1 Share Awards. The Committee may grant a Share Award to any Eligible Individual
on such terms and conditions as the Committee may determine in its sole discretion. Share Awards may be made as additional compensation for services rendered by the Eligible Individual or may be in lieu of cash or other compensation to which the
Eligible Individual is entitled from the Company. 
 10.2 Other Share-Based Awards. The Committee is authorized, subject to
limitations under applicable law, to grant to Eligible Individuals such other Awards that may be denominated or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on, or related to, Shares, as deemed by the Committee to be
consistent with the purposes of this Plan, including without limitation convertible or exchangeable debt securities, other rights convertible or exchangeable into Shares, purchase rights for Shares, Awards with value and payment contingent upon
performance of the Company or any other factors designated by the Committee, and Awards valued by reference to the book value of Shares or the value of securities of, or the performance of, specified Subsidiaries of the Company. The Committee shall
determine the terms and conditions of such Other Share-Based Awards. Shares delivered pursuant to an Award in the nature of a purchase right granted under this Section 10.2 shall be purchased for such consideration, paid for at such times, by
such methods, and in such forms, including, without limitation, cash, Shares, other Awards, or other property, as the Committee shall determine. Cash awards (“Cash Awards”), as an element of or supplement to any other Award under this
Plan, may also be granted pursuant to this Section 10.2. 
 10.3 Substitute Awards. Awards may be granted under the Plan in
substitution for similar awards held by individuals who become Employees, Directors or Consultants as a result of a merger, consolidation, acquisition or other transaction by the Company or an Affiliate of another entity or the assets of another
entity. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan to the contrary, Substitute Awards that are Options or Share Appreciation Rights may have exercise prices less than the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of the substitution if such
substitution complies with the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules and other applicable laws and exchange rules. 
  

	 	11.	 Effect of Termination of Employment; Transferability. 



11.1 Termination. The Award Agreement evidencing the grant of each Award shall set forth the terms and conditions applicable to such
Award upon Termination, which shall be as the Committee may, in its discretion, determine at the time the Award is granted or at any time thereafter, and which terms and conditions may include provisions regarding the treatment of an Award in the
event of a Termination by reason of a divestiture of any Subsidiary or Division or other assets of the Company or any Subsidiary. 
 11.2
Transferability of Awards and Shares. 
 (a) Non-Transferability of Awards. Except as
set forth in Section 11.2(c) or (d) or as otherwise permitted by the Committee and as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, either at the time of grant or at any time thereafter, no Award shall be (i) sold, transferred or
otherwise disposed of, (ii) pledged or otherwise hypothecated or (iii) subject to attachment, execution or levy of any kind; and any purported transfer, pledge, hypothecation, attachment, execution or levy in violation of this
Section 11.2 shall be null and void. 

  
 19 













 (b) Restrictions on Shares. The Committee may impose such restrictions on any Shares
acquired by a Participant under the Plan as it may deem advisable, including, without limitation, minimum holding period requirements, restrictions under applicable federal securities laws, restrictions under the requirements of any share exchange
or market upon which such Shares are then listed or traded and restrictions under any blue sky or state securities laws applicable to such Shares. 

(c) Transfers By Will or by Laws of Descent or Distribution. Any Award may be transferred by will or by the laws of descent or
distribution; provided, however, that (i) any transferred Award will be subject to all of the same terms and conditions as provided in the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement; and (ii) the Participant’s estate
or beneficiary appointed in accordance with this Section 11.2(c) will remain liable for any withholding tax that may be imposed by any federal, state or local tax authority. 

(d) Beneficiary Designation. Each Participant may, from time to time, name one or more individuals (each, a “Beneficiary”) to
whom any benefit under the Plan is to be paid or who may exercise any rights of the Participant under any Award granted under the Plan in the event of the Participant’s death before he or she receives any or all of such benefit or exercises
such Award. Each such designation shall revoke all prior designations by the same Participant, shall be in a form prescribed by the Company, and will be effective only when filed by the Participant in writing with the Company during the
Participant’s lifetime. In the absence of any such designation, benefits under Awards remaining unpaid at the Participant’s death and rights to be exercised following the Participant’s death shall be paid to or exercised by the
Participant’s estate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 11, an Incentive Stock Option shall not be transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. 

(e) Qualified Domestic Relations Orders. An Award may be transferred pursuant to a domestic relations order entered or approved by a
court of competent jurisdiction upon delivery to the Company of written notice of such transfer and a certified copy of such order. 
  

	 	12.	 Adjustment upon Changes in Capitalization. 



12.1 In the event of a Change in Capitalization, the Committee shall conclusively determine the appropriate adjustments, if any, to the Plan
and/or any Award to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights granted to, or available for, Participants under the Plan, including with respect to the following: (a) the maximum number and class of Shares or other shares or securities with
respect to which Awards may be granted under the Plan, (b) the maximum number and class of Shares or other shares or securities that may be issued upon exercise of Incentive Share Options, (c) the maximum number and class of Shares or
other shares or securities with respect to which Awards may be granted to any Eligible Individual in any calendar year, (d) the number and class of Shares or other shares or securities, cash or other property which are subject to outstanding
Awards granted under the Plan and the exercise price therefore, if applicable, and (e) the Performance Objectives. 

  
 20 













 12.2 Any such adjustment in the Shares or other share or securities (a) subject to
outstanding Incentive Stock Options (including any adjustments in the exercise price) shall be made in such manner as not to constitute a modification as defined by Section 424(h)(3) of the Code and only to the extent otherwise permitted by
Sections 422 and 424 of the Code, and (b) with respect to any Award that is not subject to the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules, in a manner that would not subject the Award to the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules and, with
respect to any Award that is subject to the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules, in a manner that complies with the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules. 

12.3 If, by reason of a Change in Capitalization, pursuant to an Award, a Participant shall be entitled to, or shall be entitled to exercise
an Option with respect to, new, additional or different shares or securities of the Company or any other corporation, such new, additional or different shares shall thereupon be subject to all of the conditions, restrictions and performance criteria
which were applicable to the Shares subject to the Award, prior to such Change in Capitalization. 
  

	 	13.	 Effect of a Corporate Transaction. 



13.1 Except as otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, in the event of a Corporate Transaction, the Committee may, in its
sole discretion, and on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, take any one or more of the following actions with respect to any outstanding Award, which need not be uniform with respect to all Participants and/or Awards: 

(a) continuation or assumption of such Award by the Company (if it is the surviving corporation) or by the successor or surviving corporation
or its parent; 
 (b) substitution or replacement of such Award by the successor or surviving corporation or its parent with cash,
securities, rights or other property to be paid or issued, as the case may be, by the successor or surviving corporation (or a parent or subsidiary thereof), with substantially the same terms and conditions (including vesting) and value as such
Award, except that the Committee may deem any applicable performance targets or criteria with respect thereto to be satisfied as of immediately prior to the Corporate Transaction or measure the performance targets or criteria as of the Corporate
Transaction; 
 (c) acceleration of the vesting of such Award and the lapse of any restrictions thereon and, in the case of an Option or
Share Appreciation Right, acceleration of the right to exercise such Award during a specified period (and the termination of such Option or Share Appreciation Right without payment of any consideration therefor to the extent such Award is not timely
exercised), in each case, upon (A) the Participant’s involuntary Termination (including upon a termination of the Participant’s employment by the Company (or a successor corporation or its parent) without Cause (as defined herein or
under an employment agreement), or to the extent applicable by the Participant for “good reason”, as such term may be defined in the applicable Award Agreement and/or the Participant’s employment agreement, offer letter, or other
similar documents) on or within a specified period (but not less 24 months) following such Corporate Transaction or (B) in the event the successor or surviving corporation (or its parent) does not continue or assume such Award; 

  
 21 













 (d) in the case of a Performance Award, determination of the level of attainment of the
applicable performance condition(s); and 
 (e) cancellation of such Award in consideration of a payment, with the form, amount and timing
of such payment determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, subject to the following: (A) such payment shall be made in cash, securities, rights and/or other property; (B) the amount of such payment shall equal the value of such
Award, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion; provided that, in the case of an Option or Share Appreciation Right, if such value equals the Intrinsic Value of such Award, such value shall be deemed to be valid; provided
further that, if the Intrinsic Value of an Option or Share Appreciation Right is equal to or less than zero, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide for the cancellation of such Award without payment of any consideration therefor (for the
avoidance of doubt, in the event of a Change in Control, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, terminate any Option or Share Appreciation Right for which the exercise or hurdle price is equal to or exceeds the per Share value of the
consideration to be paid in the Change in Control transaction without payment of consideration therefor); and (C) such payment shall be made promptly following such Change in Control or on a specified date or dates following such Change in
Control. 
  

	 	14.	 Interpretation. 



14.1 Section 16 Compliance. The Plan is intended to comply with Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the
Exchange Act and the Committee shall interpret and administer the provisions of the Plan or any Award Agreement in a manner consistent therewith. Any provisions inconsistent with such Rule shall be inoperative and shall not affect the validity of
the Plan. 
 14.2 Compliance with Section 409A and Section 457A. All Awards granted under the
Plan are intended to be exempt from the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules or, if subject to the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules, to be administered, operated and construed in compliance with the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation
Rules. Notwithstanding this or any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, the Committee may amend the Plan or any Award granted hereunder in any manner or take any other action that it determines, in its sole discretion, is necessary,
appropriate or advisable (including replacing any Award) to cause the Plan or any Award granted hereunder to comply with the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules or to not be subject to the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules. Any such
action, once taken, shall be deemed to be effective from the earliest date necessary to avoid a violation of the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules and shall be final, binding and conclusive on all Eligible Individuals and other individuals
having or claiming any right or interest under the Plan. Neither this Section 14.2 nor any other provision of the Plan is or contains a representation as to any Participant regarding the tax consequences of the grant, vesting or sale of any
Award (or the Shares underlying such Award) granted hereunder, and should not be interpreted as such. Subject to any other restrictions or limitations contained herein, in the event that a “specified employee” (as defined under the
Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules) becomes entitled to a payment under an Award that provides for a deferral of compensation under the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules on account of a “separation from service” (as defined
under the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules), to the extent required by the Code, such payment shall not occur until the date that is six months plus one day from the date of such separation from service. Any amount that is otherwise payable
within the six-month period described herein will be aggregated and paid in a lump sum without interest. 

  
 22 














	 	15.	 Term; Plan Termination and Amendment of the Plan; Modification of Awards. 



15.1 Term. The Plan shall terminate on the Plan Termination Date and no Award shall be granted after that date. The applicable terms of
the Plan and any terms and conditions applicable to Awards granted prior to the Plan Termination Date shall survive the termination of the Plan and continue to apply to such Awards. 

15.2 Plan Amendment or Plan Termination. Prior to the Plan Termination Date, the Board may earlier terminate the Plan and the Board may
at any time and from time to time amend, modify or suspend the Plan; provided, however, that: 
 (a) no such amendment,
modification, suspension or termination shall impair or adversely alter any Awards theretofore granted under the Plan, except with the consent of the Participant, nor shall any amendment, modification, suspension or termination deprive any
Participant of any Shares which he or she may have acquired through or as a result of the Plan; and 
 (b) to the extent necessary under
any applicable law, regulation or exchange requirement, no other amendment shall be effective unless approved by the shareholders of the Company in accordance with applicable law, regulation or exchange requirement. 

For purposes of clarity, any adjustments made to Awards pursuant to Section 12 or 13 shall be deemed not to impair or adversely alter
Awards or deprive any Participant of Shares and therefore may be made without the consent of affected Participants.

applicable generally or only in specific cases.

18.2 Compliance with Law. 

(a) The obligation of the Company to sell or deliver Shares with respect to Awards granted under the Plan shall be subject to all applicable
laws, rules and regulations, including all applicable federal and state securities laws, and the obtaining of all such approvals by governmental agencies as may be deemed necessary or appropriate by the Committee.

 18.3 Transfers of Plan Acquired Shares. Notwithstanding anything contained in the
Plan or any Award Agreement to the contrary, in the event that the disposition of Shares acquired pursuant to the Plan is not covered by a then current registration statement under the Securities Act and is not otherwise exempt from such
registration, such Shares shall be restricted against transfer to the extent required by the Securities Act and Rule 144 or other regulations promulgated thereunder. The Committee may require any individual receiving Shares pursuant to an Award
granted under the Plan, as a condition precedent to receipt of such Shares, to represent and warrant to the Company in writing that the Shares acquired by such individual are acquired without a view to any distribution thereof and will not be sold
or transferred other than pursuant to an effective registration thereof under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption applicable under the Securities Act or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The certificates evidencing any of
such Shares shall be appropriately amended or have an appropriate legend placed thereon to reflect their status as restricted securities as aforesaid. 
  

	 	19.	 Miscellaneous. 



19.1 Forfeiture Events and Clawback. The Committee may specify in an Award Agreement that the Participant’s rights, payments and
benefits with respect to an Award shall be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture or recoupment upon the occurrence of certain specified events or as required by law, in addition to any otherwise applicable forfeiture provisions that apply
to the Award In addition, the Plan is subject to any written clawback policies the Company, with the approval of the Board, may adopt. Any such policy may subject a Participant’s Awards and amounts paid or realized with respect to Awards under
the Plan to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture or recoupment if certain specified events or wrongful conduct occur, including but not limited to an accounting restatement due to the Company’s material noncompliance with financial reporting
regulations or other events or wrongful conduct specified in any such clawback policy adopted to conform to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and rules promulgated thereunder by the Securities and Exchange
Commission and that the Company determines should apply to the Plan. 
 19.2 Multiple Agreements. The terms of each Award may differ
from other Awards granted under the Plan at the same time or at some other time. The Committee may also grant more than one Award to a given Eligible Individual during the term of the Plan, either in addition to or, subject to Section 3.5, in
substitution for one or more Awards previously granted to that Eligible Individual. 
 19.3 Withholding of Taxes. 

(a) The Company and any of its Affiliates are authorized to withhold from any Award granted, or any payment relating to an Award, including
from a distribution of Shares, taxes due or potentially payable in connection with any transaction involving an Award, and to take such other action as the Committee may deem advisable to enable the Company, its Affiliates and Participants to
satisfy the payment of withholding taxes and other tax obligations relating to any Award in such amounts as may be determined by the Committee. The Committee shall determine, in its sole discretion, the form of payment acceptable for such tax
withholding obligations, including the delivery of cash or cash equivalents, Shares (including previously owned Shares, net settlement, a broker-assisted sale, or other cashless withholding or reduction


  
 25 













 
of the amount of Shares otherwise issuable or delivered pursuant to the Award), other property, or any other legal consideration the Committee deems appropriate. Any determination made by the
Committee to allow a Participant who is subject to Rule 16b-3 to pay taxes with Shares through net settlement or previously owned Shares shall be approved by either a committee made up of solely two or more
Nonemployee Directors or the full Board. If such tax withholding amounts are satisfied through net settlement or previously owned Shares, the maximum number of Shares that may be so withheld or surrendered shall be the number of Shares that have an
aggregate Fair Market Value on the date of withholding or surrender equal to the aggregate amount of such tax liabilities determined based on the greatest withholding rates for federal, state, foreign and/or local tax purposes, including payroll
taxes, that may be utilized without creating adverse accounting treatment for the Company with respect to such Award, as determined by the Committee. 

(b) If a Participant makes a disposition, within the meaning of Section 424(c) of the Code and regulations promulgated thereunder, of
any Share or Shares issued to such Participant pursuant to the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option within the two-year period commencing on the day after the date of the grant or within the one-year period commencing on the day after the date of transfer of such Share or Shares to the Participant pursuant to such exercise, the Participant shall, within ten (10) days of such disposition, notify the
Company thereof, by delivery of written notice to the Company at its principal executive office. 
 19.4 Plan Unfunded. The Plan
shall be unfunded. Except for reserving a sufficient number of authorized Shares to the extent required by law to meet the requirements of the Plan, the Company shall not be required to establish any special or separate fund or to make any other
segregation of assets to assure payment of any Award granted under the Plan. 
 19.5 Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be
issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or any Award. The Committee shall determine whether cash, other Awards or other property shall be issued or paid in lieu of such fractional shares or whether such fractional shares or any rights thereto shall
be forfeited or otherwise eliminated. 
 19.6 Impact of Merger. For the avoidance of doubt, the terms of the Plan in effect
immediately prior to the Merger shall apply to each Rollover Award, as each such Award has been amended pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement; provided, however, that effective immediately after the Merger, references to the
term “Company” or “C&J Energy Services, Inc.” (or words of similar meaning) in any Award Agreement relating to such Rollover Award shall mean “NexTier Oilfield Solutions Inc.”
