W I T N E S S E T H 
 WHEREAS, PES and the Guarantor have heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee and Collateral Agent the indenture, dated as of March 3, 2011 (the “Base Indenture”), as amended
by the First Supplemental Indenture, as defined below (as so amended, the “Indenture”), pursuant to which PES issued and the Guarantor guaranteed $115,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of 14.250% Senior Secured Notes due 2015
(the “Notes”); 
 WHEREAS, the first interest payment on the Notes, which was due on September 1, 2011,
was capitalized and added to the principal amount of the Notes pursuant to the terms of the Notes, and as a result of such capitalization on September 1, 2011 an additional $8,102,711 in Notes were issued as a result of which $123,102,711 in
aggregate principal amount of Notes were outstanding following such capitalization; 
 WHEREAS, PES and the Guarantor have
authorized the issuance of $50,000,000 in Additional Notes (the “Additional Notes”) pursuant to the Indenture; 

WHEREAS, Section 9.01(a)(7) of the Indenture allows PES, the Guarantors and the Trustee to amend or supplement the Indenture
Documents without the consent of any Holder of Notes, to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with the limitations set forth in the Indenture; and Sections 9.02 and 2.09 of the Indenture permit PES, the Guarantors and the
Trustee to amend or supplement the Indenture with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (other than Notes owned by PES or any Guarantor, or by any Person directly or indirectly
controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with PES or any Guarantor (“Affiliate”)); 
 WHEREAS, on September 26, 2011, the parties hereto amended the Base Indenture pursuant to the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of September 26, 2011 (the “First Supplemental
Indenture”), so as to (a) increase permitted Indebtedness under Section 4.09(b)(7) of the Base Indenture from $35,000,000 to $50,000,000 in aggregate principal amount to allow for the issuance of the above-referenced Additional
Notes, and clarify that such amount will be exhausted in full by the issuance of the Additional Notes (and remove the proviso as to use of proceeds of such indebtedness solely for the purpose of acquiring equipment), (b) eliminate the
requirement under Section 4.09(b)(7) that the Indebtedness is used by PES or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries solely for the purpose of acquiring equipment, and (c) to amend the covenant contained in Section 4.24 of the Base
Indenture, each as described therein; 







 WHEREAS, PES has conducted a consent solicitation to approve the amendments to the Base
Indenture reflected in the First Supplemental Indenture and the issuance of the Additional Notes pursuant to this Second Supplemental Indenture (collectively, the “Supplements”); 

WHEREAS, the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding (other than Notes so owned by PES or
any Guarantor, or any Affiliate) as of the record date established for such consent solicitation have consented to the Supplements; and 
 WHEREAS, all other acts and proceedings required by law and the Indenture necessary to authorize the execution and delivery of this Second Supplemental Indenture a valid and binding supplement to the
Indenture according to the terms of the Indenture have been complied with or have been duly done or performed. 
 NOW,
THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto do hereby agree as follows: 

1. CAPITALIZED TERMS. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

 2. ADDITIONAL NOTES. 
 a. Issuance. Pursuant to Section 2.02 of the Indenture, on the date hereof, PES shall issue, the Guarantor shall guarantee, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, an aggregate
principal amount of $50,000,000 of the Additional Notes, in accordance with Section 4.09 of the Indenture. The Additional Notes shall constitute a distinct issuance of Notes but be considered the same class and shall be in the same form as the
Initial Notes, upon receipt of an Authentication Order relating thereto specifying the amount of the Additional Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the Additional Notes are to be authenticated. The Additional Notes issued under the
Indenture in accordance with such Sections 2.02 and 4.09 of the Indenture shall be part of the same series as the Initial Notes, but will be issued under a separate CUSIP number and will not be fungible with the Initial Notes for U.S. federal income
tax purposes. Unless the context requires otherwise, references to “Notes” for all purposes under the Indenture, as supplemented by this Second Supplemental Indenture, shall include the Additional Notes. 

b. Form. In accordance with Section 2.01 of the Indenture, the Additional Notes shall be issued in global form in
denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, in substantially the form of Exhibit A attached hereto. The terms and provisions of the Additional Notes set forth in Exhibit A hereto shall constitute and are
expressly made a part of this Second Supplemental Indenture. The Additional Notes will initially be Restricted Global Notes (including the 144A Global Note and the Regulation S Global Note), in each case bearing the Private Placement Legend.

 3. GUARANTEE; COLLATERAL AND SECURITY. For the avoidance of doubt, (a) PES hereby confirms that its obligations
under the Additional Notes constitute Guaranteed Obligations and Second Lien Obligations (as such terms are defined in the Indenture) and Secured Obligations (as such term is defined in the Security Agreement dated as of March 3, 2011 among
PES, the Guarantor and the Trustee as trustee and collateral agent), and (b) the Guarantor hereby confirms that its Guarantee as a Guarantor under the Indenture shall apply to the obligations of PES under the Additional Notes as set forth in
Article 11 of the Indenture.

 4. RATIFICATION. Except as expressly supplemented hereby, each provision of the
Indenture shall remain in full force and effect and, as amended hereby, the Indenture is in all respects ratified and confirmed by each of PES, the Guarantor and the Trustee and Collateral Agent, and the provisions thereof shall be applicable to the
Additional Notes and this Second Supplemental Indenture. Upon the execution and delivery of this Second Supplemental Indenture by PES, the Guarantor and the Trustee and Collateral Agent, this Second Supplemental Indenture shall form a part of the
Indenture for all purposes, and PES, the Guarantor, the Trustee and Collateral Agent and every Holder of Notes heretofore or hereafter authenticated and delivered shall be bound hereby. Any and all references to the “Indenture,” whether
within the Indenture or in any notice, certificate or other instrument or document, shall be deemed to include a reference to this Second Supplemental Indenture (whether or not made), unless the context shall otherwise require. 

5. NEW YORK LAW TO GOVERN. THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THIS SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL
INDENTURE. 
 6. COUNTERPARTS. The parties may sign any number of copies of this Second Supplemental Indenture. Each
signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. 
 7. EFFECT OF HEADINGS. The
Section headings herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof. 
 8. THE TRUSTEE AND THE
COLLATERAL AGENT. Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall be responsible in any manner whatsoever for or in respect of the validity or sufficiency of this Second Supplemental Indenture or for or in respect of the recitals contained
herein, all of which recitals are made solely by PES and the Guarantor.

 [Back of Note] 
 14.250% Senior Secured Notes due 2015 
 Capitalized terms used herein have the
meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated. 
 (1)
INTEREST. Platinum Energy Solutions, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“PES”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at 14.250% per annum from September 1, 2011 until
maturity. PES shall pay the Additional Interest, if any, payable pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement referred to below. PES will pay interest and Additional Interest, if any, semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of
each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest Payment Date”); Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no
interest has been paid, from the date of issuance (or, in the case of the Additional Notes, the September 1, 2011 deemed date of issuance); provided that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is
authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date; provided further that the first Interest Payment Date
shall be March 1, 2012. PES will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal at the rate equal to 1% per annum in excess of the then applicable interest rate on the Notes
to the extent lawful; it will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest and Additional Interest (without regard to any applicable grace period) at the same rate to
the extent lawful. 
 (2) METHOD OF PAYMENT. PES will pay or cause to be paid the principal of, premium,
if any, and interest and Additional Interest, if any, on, the Notes on the dates and in the manner provided in the Notes. Principal, premium, if any, and interest and Additional Interest, if any will be considered paid on the date due if the Paying
Agent, if other than PES or a Subsidiary thereof, holds as of 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the due date money deposited by PES in immediately available funds and designated for and sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest then
due. PES will pay all Additional Interest, if any, in the same manner on the dates and in the amounts set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement. 
 (3) PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., the Trustee under the
Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. PES may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. PES or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity. 

(4) INDENTURE. PES issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of March 3,
2011, as amended by the First Supplemental Indenture dated September 26, 2011 and the Second Supplemental Indenture dated September 29, 2011 (as so supplemented, the “Indenture”) among PES, the Guarantors and the Trustee.
The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the TIA. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and to the TIA for a statement of such
terms. To the extent any provision of this Note 







 
conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Notes are secured obligations of PES as provided in the Indenture and
the Security Documents. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be issued thereunder. 
 (5) Optional Redemption. 

        (a) Except as set forth in subparagraphs (b) and (c) of this
Paragraph 5, the Notes will not be redeemable at PES’s option prior to March 1, 2013. On or after March 1, 2013, PES may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the
redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes redeemed, to, but not including, the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the
period set forth below, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date: 
  

					
	 For the period below
	  	Percentage	 
	 On or after March 1, 2013 to February 28, 2014
	  	 	107.125	% 
	 On or after March 1, 2014 and thereafter
	  	 	100.000	% 

 Unless PES defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue
on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable redemption date. 

        (b) At any time on or prior to March 1, 2013, PES may on any one or
more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes issued under this Indenture at a redemption price of 114.250% of the aggregate principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the
Notes to be redeemed to but not including the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date that is on or prior to the redemption date), with the net cash
proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings by PES, provided that: 
  

	 	(i)	at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes originally issued under this Indenture remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption
(excluding Notes held by PES and its Subsidiaries); and 

  

	 	(ii)	the redemption occurs within 90 days of the date of the closing of such Equity Offering. 


        (c) In addition, at any time prior to March 1, 2013, PES may also
redeem all or a part of the Notes, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first-class mail to each Holder’s registered address (or transmitted otherwise in accordance with applicable procedures of DTC),
with a copy to the Trustee, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium, and accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if 

  
 10 









         (d) any, to, but not
including, the redemption date, subject to the rights of holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date. 
 Unless PES defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable redemption date. 

(6) MANDATORY REDEMPTION. 

PES is not required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. PES may at any time
and from time to time purchase the Notes in the open market or otherwise if such purchase complies with the then applicable agreements of PES, including this Indenture. 

(7) REPURCHASE AT THE OPTION OF
HOLDER. 
 (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, PES will make an offer (a “Change of Control
Offer”) to each Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes
repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to the date of settlement (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to
receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 15 days following any Change of Control, PES will mail a notice to each Holder and the Trustee describing the transaction or
transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase Notes as of the Change of Control Payment Date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is
mailed, pursuant to the procedures required by the Indenture and described in such notice. 
 (b) If PES or a Restricted
Subsidiary of PES consummates any Asset Sales, on the 361st day after the Asset Sale (or, at PES’s option, any earlier date), if the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds then exceeds $5.0 million, PES will make an Asset Sale Offer to all Holders
of Notes, and, at PES’s option, all holders of Other Pari Passu Obligations, to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset
Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the date of settlement, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an
Interest Payment Date that is on or prior to the date of settlement, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, PES may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by
the Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and, if applicable, Other Pari Passu Obligations tendered into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee will select the Notes and such Other Pari Passu
Obligations 







 (c) to be purchased on a pro rata basis. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the
amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero. 
 (d) Within 100 days after each Determination Date for which the Excess Cash
Flow of PES and its Restricted Subsidiaries for the applicable Excess Cash Flow Offer Determination Period exceeds $2.5 million (the “Excess Cash Flow Offer Threshold”), and to the extent permitted by its Credit Facilities, PES will make
an offer in cash in an amount equal to the Excess Cash Flow Offer Amount to purchase Notes (an “Excess Cash Flow Offer”) at an offer price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest and
Additional Interest, if any, to the date of purchase (the “Excess Cash Flow Offer Payment”). If the aggregate principal amount of Notes tendered in such Excess Cash Flow Offer exceeds the Excess Cash Flow Offer Amount, the Trustee will
select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes tendered pursuant to an Excess Cash Flow Offer is less than the Excess
Cash Flow Offer Amount, PES may use any remaining Excess Cash Flow Amount for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by the Indenture. Upon completion of any such Excess Cash Flow Offer, the Excess Cash Flow Amount shall be reset at zero; provided
that PES will not be deemed to be in default under this covenant for any failure to make an Excess Cash Flow Offer or an Excess Cash Flow Offer Payment by virtue of any adjustment in the amount calculated for any Excess Cash Flow Offer
Determination Period due to normal year-end accounting adjustments or other changes concurred in by its public accountants; provided further that any such adjustment in the calculation of the Excess Cash Flow for a prior Excess Cash Flow
Offer Determination Period, whether positive or negative, shall be carried forward to the next subsequent Excess Cash Flow Offer Determination Period. Within 100 days following each such Determination Date, PES will mail a notice to each Holder and
the Trustee offering to repurchase Notes as of the date specified in the notice (the “Excess Cash Flow Offer Purchase Date”), which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed,
pursuant to the procedures required by the Indenture and described in such notice. 
 (8)
NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. Notice of redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, PES will mail or cause to be mailed, by first class
mail, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance
of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. Notes in denominations larger than $2,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed. 

(9) DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Notes are in
registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among
other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and PES may require a Holder 







 (10) to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the
Indenture. PES need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, PES need not exchange or register the transfer of any
Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date. 
 (11) PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes. 

(12) AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. The Indenture or the
Notes or Guarantees may be amended or supplemented as specified in the Indenture. 
 (13)
DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. Events of Default are specified in Indenture. In the case of an Event of Default arising under Section 6.01(10) or (11) of the Indenture, all
outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may
declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default from Holders of the Notes if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest,
except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal of, or interest, premium or Additional Interest, if any, on, the Notes. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice
to the Trustee may, on behalf of all of the Holders, rescind an acceleration and its consequences, if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default (except nonpayment of principal, interest or
premium or Additional Interest, if any, that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived. 
 (14) TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH PES. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for
PES or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with PES or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee. 
 (15)
NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. A director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder or other owner of Capital Stock of PES or any of the Guarantors, as such, will
not have any liability for any obligations of PES or the Guarantors under the Notes, the Note Guarantees, the Security Documents or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each
Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes. 
 (16) AUTHENTICATION. This Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent. 







 (17) ABBREVIATIONS. Customary
abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian),
and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act). 
 (18) ADDITIONAL RIGHTS
OF HOLDERS OF RESTRICTED GLOBAL NOTES AND RESTRICTED DEFINITIVE NOTES. In
addition to the rights provided to Holders of Notes (including Additional Notes) under the Indenture, Holders of Restricted Global Notes and Restricted Definitive Notes will have all the rights set forth in one or more registration rights
agreements, if any, among PES, the Guarantors and the other parties thereto, relating to rights given by PES and the Guarantors to the purchasers of Notes, including Additional Notes (collectively, the “Registration Rights
Agreement”). 
 (19) CUSIP NUMBERS. Pursuant to a recommendation
promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, PES has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes, and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is
made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption, and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon. 

(20) GOVERNING LAW. THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WILL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THE INDENTURE,
THIS NOTE AND THE GUARANTEES. 
 (21) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the liens and security
interests securing the obligations evidenced by this promissory note, the exercise of any right or remedy with respect thereto, and certain of the rights of the Holder hereof may be subject to the provisions of an Intercreditor Agreement entered
into after March 3, 2011 (as amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercreditor Agreement”), by and between a First Lien Agent, and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as
Second Lien Trustee and Collateral Agent. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this promissory note, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control. 

PES will furnish to any Holder upon written request and without charge a copy of the Indenture and/or the Registration Rights Agreement.
