On February 7, 2023, the Board of Directors of Cactus, Inc. (the "Company") amended and restated the Company's bylaws (as so amended the "Amended and Restated Bylaws") to include forum selection provisions that, among other things, provide that unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any claims under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

The Amended and Restated Bylaws are attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and are hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 5.03. The foregoing summary description of the Amended and Restated Bylaws is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended and Restated Bylaws.

**Item 8.01 Other Events.**

As previously announced, on December 30, 2022, the Company, and its newly formed wholly-owned subsidiary Atlas Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Merger Sub"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with HighRidge Resources, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Target"), which indirectly owns all of the issued and outstanding equity interests in FlexSteel Pipeline Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and FlexSteel LTIP LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the "Seller Representative"), solely in its capacity as Seller Representative thereunder and for purposes of certain provisions of the Merger Agreement, pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Target, with the Target continuing as the surviving entity and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Merger").

The Company announced today that the waiting period had expired under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, in connection with the Merger. The press release is attached hereto as an exhibit and is incorporated by reference herein.

**ARTICLE I<br>OFFICES AND RECORDS**

Section 1.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Registered Office</u>. The registered office of Cactus, Inc. (the "***Corporation***") in the State of Delaware shall be as set forth in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, as it may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time (the "***Certificate of Incorporation***"), and the name of the Corporation's registered agent at such address is as set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation. The registered office and registered agent of the Corporation may be changed from time to time by the board of directors of the Corporation (the "***Board***") in the manner provided by applicable law.

Section 1.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Other Offices</u>. The Corporation may have such other offices, either within or without the State of Delaware, as the Board may designate or as the business of the Corporation may from time to time require.

Section 1.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Books and Records</u>. The books and records of the Corporation may be kept outside the State of Delaware at such place or places as may from time to time be designated by the Board.

**ARTICLE II<br>STOCKHOLDERS**

Section 2.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Annual Meetings</u>. If required by applicable law, an annual meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation shall be held at such date, time and place, if any, either within or without the State of Delaware, and time as may be fixed by resolution of the Board. Any other proper business may be transacted at the annual meeting. The Board may, at any time prior to the holding of an annual meeting of stockholders, and for any reason, postpone, reschedule or cancel any annual meeting of stockholders previously scheduled by the Board.

Section 2.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Special Meetings</u>. Except as otherwise required by law and subject to the rights of holders of any series of preferred stock of the Corporation (the "***Preferred Stock***"), special meetings of stockholders of the Corporation may only be called in the manner provided in the Certificate of Incorporation. The Board may, at any time prior to the holding of a special meeting of stockholders, and for any reason, postpone, reschedule or cancel any special meeting of the stockholders previously scheduled by the Board.

Section 2.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Record Date</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment or recess thereof, the Board may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board, and which record date shall, unless otherwise required by applicable law, not be more than sixty (60) nor less than ten (10) days before the date of such meeting. If the Board so fixes a date, such date shall also be the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting unless the Board determines, at the time it fixes such record date, that a later date on or before the date of the meeting shall be the date for

Active 102035724.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

------

making such determination. If no record date is fixed by the Board, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment or recess of the meeting; *provided*, *however*, that the Board may fix a new record date for determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the adjourned or recessed meeting, and in such case shall also fix as the record date for stockholders entitled to notice of such adjourned or recessed meeting the same date as that fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to vote in accordance herewith at the adjourned or recessed meeting.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted, and which record date shall not be more than sixty (60) days prior to such action. If no such record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders for any such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board adopts the resolution relating thereto.

Section 2.4&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Stockholder List</u>. The officer who has charge of the stock ledger shall prepare and make, at least ten (10) days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders (*provided*, *however*, if the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote is less than ten (10) days before the date of the meeting, the list shall reflect the stockholders entitled to vote as of the 10th day before the meeting date), arranged in alphabetical order for each class of stock and showing the address of each such stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of such stockholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least ten (10) days prior to the meeting, either on a reasonably accessible electronic network (*provided* that the information required to gain access to the list is provided with the notice of the meeting) or during ordinary business hours at the principal place of business of the Corporation. The stock list shall also be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present. If the meeting is to be held solely by means of remote communication, then the list shall also be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of the meeting. Except as otherwise provided by applicable law, the stock ledger of the Corporation shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled by this section to examine the list required by this section or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of the stockholders.

Section 2.5&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Place of Meeting</u>. The Board, the Chairman of the Board or the Chief Executive Officer, as the case may be, may designate the place of meeting for any annual meeting or for any special meeting of the stockholders. If no designation is so made, the place of meeting shall be the principal executive offices of the Corporation. The Board, acting in its sole discretion, may establish guidelines and procedures in accordance with applicable provisions of

Active 102035724.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

------

the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "***DGCL***") and any other applicable law for the participation by stockholders and proxyholders in a meeting of stockholders by means of remote communications, and may determine that any meeting of stockholders will not be held at any place but will be held solely by means of remote communication. Stockholders and proxyholders complying with such procedures and guidelines and otherwise entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be deemed present in person and entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders, whether such meeting is to be held at a designated place or solely by means of remote communication.

Section 2.6&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Notice of Meeting</u>. Written or printed notice, stating the place, if any, day and hour of the meeting and the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, shall be given not less than ten (10) days nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting, in a manner pursuant to <u>Section 7.7</u> hereof, to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such meeting. The notice shall specify (i) the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting (if such date is different from the record date for stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting), (ii) the place, if any, date and time of such meeting, (iii) the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, (iv) in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which such meeting is called and (v) such other information as may be required by applicable law or as may be deemed appropriate by the Board, the Chairman of the Board or the Chief Executive Officer or the Secretary of the Corporation. If the stockholder list referred to in <u>Section 2.4</u> of these Bylaws is made accessible on an electronic network, the notice of meeting must indicate how the stockholder list can be accessed. If the meeting of stockholders is to be held solely by means of electronic communications, the notice of meeting must provide the information required to access such stockholder list during the meeting. If mailed, such notice shall be deemed to be delivered when deposited in the United States mail with postage thereon prepaid, addressed to the stockholder at his address as it appears on the stock transfer books of the Corporation. The Corporation may provide stockholders with notice of a meeting by electronic transmission provided such stockholders have consented to receiving electronic notice in accordance with the DGCL. Such further notice shall be given as may be required by applicable law. Only such business shall be conducted at a special meeting of stockholders as shall have been brought before the meeting pursuant to the notice of meeting. Meetings may be held without notice if all stockholders entitled to vote are present, or if notice is waived by those not present in accordance with <u>Section 7.4</u> of these Bylaws.

Section 2.7&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Quorum and Adjournment of Meetings</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Except as otherwise provided by applicable law or by the Certificate of Incorporation, the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote at the meeting (the "***Voting Stock***"), represented in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at a meeting of stockholders, except that when specified business is to be voted on by a class or series of stock voting as a class, the holders of a majority of the shares of such class or series shall constitute a quorum of such class or series for the transaction of such business. For the avoidance of doubt, abstentions and broker non-votes shall be treated as present for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum. The chairman of the meeting or a majority of the shares so represented may adjourn or recess the meeting at any time and for any reason, whether or not there is such a quorum. The stockholders present at a duly called meeting at which a quorum is present may continue to transact business until the meeting

Active 102035724.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

------

is adjourned or recessed, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a quorum.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Any meeting of stockholders, annual or special, may adjourn or recess from time to time to reconvene at the same or some other place, and notice need not be given of any such adjourned or recessed meeting if the time and place thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment or recess is taken; *provided*, *however*, that if the adjournment or recess is for more than thirty (30) days, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting. At the adjourned or recessed meeting, the Corporation may transact any business that might have been transacted at the original meeting.

Section 2.8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Proxies</u>. At all meetings of stockholders, a stockholder may vote by proxy executed in writing (or in such other manner prescribed by the DGCL) by the stockholder or by his duly authorized attorney-in-fact. Any copy, facsimile transmission or other reliable reproduction of the writing or transmission created pursuant to this section may be substituted or used in lieu of the original writing or transmission for any and all purposes for which the original writing or transmission could be used, *provided* that such copy, facsimile transmission or other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original writing or transmission. No proxy may be voted or acted upon after the expiration of three (3) years from the date of such proxy, unless such proxy provides for a longer period. Every proxy is revocable at the pleasure of the stockholder executing it unless the proxy states that it is irrevocable and applicable law makes it irrevocable. A stockholder may revoke any proxy that is not irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by filing an instrument in writing revoking the proxy or by filing another duly executed proxy bearing a later date with the Secretary of the Corporation.

Section 2.9&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Notice of Stockholder Business and Nominations</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Annual Meetings of Stockholders</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Nominations of persons for election to the Board and the proposal of other business to be considered by the stockholders at an annual meeting of stockholders may be made only (a) pursuant to the Corporation's notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto), (b) by or at the direction of the Board or any committee thereof, (c) subject to the then-applicable terms of the Stockholders' Agreement (as defined in the Certificate of Incorporation) (with respect to nominations of persons for election to the Board only), by any stockholder of the Corporation who (i) was a stockholder of record at the time of giving of notice provided for in these Bylaws and at the time of the annual meeting, (ii) is entitled to vote at the meeting and (iii) complies with the notice procedures set forth in these Bylaws and applicable law as to such business or nomination, or (d) with respect to nominations only, by any Eligible Stockholder (as defined in <u>Section 2.10</u>) (i) who is a stockholder of record at the time of giving the stockholder notice described in <u>Section 2.10</u> and at the time of the annual meeting, (ii) who complies with the provisions of <u>Section 2.10</u>, (iii) who is entitled to vote at the meeting, and (iv) whose Proxy Access Stockholder Nominee (as defined in <u>Section 2.10</u>) is included in the Corporation's proxy materials for the meeting. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing clauses (c) and (d) shall be the exclusive means for a stockholder to make nominations and the foregoing clause (c) shall be the exclusive means for a stockholder to submit any other business (other than matters properly brought under Rule

14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "***Exchange Act***"), and included in the Corporation's notice of meeting) before an annual meeting of the stockholders.

To be timely, a stockholder's notice shall be delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day and not later than the close of business on the 90th day prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year's annual meeting (which anniversary, in the case of the first annual meeting of stockholders following the close of the Corporation's initial public offering, shall be deemed to be April 10, 2018); *provided*, *however*, that in the event that the date of the annual meeting is scheduled for a date that is more than thirty (30) days before or more than sixty (60) days after such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so delivered not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to the date of such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to such annual meeting or, if the first public announcement of the date of such annual meeting is less than one hundred (100) days prior to the date of such annual meeting, the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by the Corporation. In no event shall any adjournment, recess, cancellation, rescheduling or postponement of an annual meeting or any announcement thereof commence a new time period for the giving of a stockholder's notice as described above. To be in proper form, a stockholder's notice (whether given pursuant to this <u>Section 2.9(A)(2)</u> or <u>Section 2.9(B)</u>) to the Secretary of the Corporation must:

For purposes of satisfying the ownership requirements of this <u>Section 2.10(E)</u>, a group of not more than twenty (20) stockholders and/or beneficial owners may aggregate the number of shares of the Corporation that are entitled to vote generally in the election of directors that each group member has individually owned continuously for at least three years (two years in the case of the annual meeting to be held in 2021 only) as of the date of the Notice of Proxy Access Nomination if all other requirements and obligations for an Eligible Stockholder set forth in this <u>Section 2.10</u> are satisfied by and as to each stockholder or beneficial owner comprising the group whose shares are aggregated. Two or more funds that are (x) under common management and investment control, (y) under common management and funded primarily by a single employer or (z) a "group of investment companies," as such term is defined in Section 12(d)(1)(G)(ii) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "***1940 Act***") (such funds together under each of (x), (y) or (z) comprising a "***Qualifying Fund***") shall be treated as one stockholder for the purpose of determining the aggregate number of stockholders in this <u>Section 2.10(E)</u>, and treated as one person for the purpose of determining ownership in <u>Section 2.10(E)(2)</u>, *provided that* each fund comprising a

Qualifying Fund otherwise meets the requirements set forth in this <u>Section 2.10</u>. No stockholder or beneficial holder may be a member of more than one group constituting an Eligible Stockholder under this <u>Section 2.10</u>, and no shares may be attributed to more than one Eligible Stockholder or group constituting an Eligible Stockholder under this <u>Section 2.10</u>. For the avoidance of doubt, the Required Shares will qualify as such if and only if the beneficial owner of such shares has itself beneficially owned such shares continuously for the three-year period ending on the date the Notice of Proxy Access Nomination is received by the Corporation (or the two-year period, in the case of the annual meeting to be held in 2021 only) and through other applicable dates referred to above (in addition to the other applicable requirements being met). For purposes of these Bylaws, the term "***affiliate***" or "***affiliates***" shall have the meanings ascribed thereto under the rules and regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act. For purposes of determining the denominator to be used in calculating whether an Eligible Stockholder meets the 3% threshold in this <u>Section 2.10(E)(1)</u>, the Eligible Stockholder may rely on information about the outstanding shares of the Corporation, as set forth in the Corporation's most recent quarterly or annual report, and any current report subsequent thereto, filed with the SEC by the Corporation pursuant to the Exchange Act, unless the Eligible Stockholder knows or has reason to know that the information contained therein is inaccurate.

"Ownership" shall include shares held in the name of a nominee or other intermediary so long as the person claiming ownership of such shares retains the right to instruct how the shares are voted with respect to the election of directors and the right to direct disposition thereof and possesses the full economic interest in the shares, *provided that* this provision shall not alter the obligations of any stockholder to provide the Notice of Proxy Access Nomination. Ownership of shares shall be deemed to continue during any period in which shares have been loaned if the person claiming ownership has the power to recall such loaned shares on no more than five business days' notice and the person recalls the loaned shares within five business days of being notified that its Proxy Access Stockholder Nominee will be included in the Corporation's proxy materials for the applicable annual meeting, and the person holds the

recalled shares through such annual meeting. Ownership of shares shall be deemed to continue during any period in which any voting power has been delegated by means of a proxy, power of attorney or other instrument or arrangement which is revocable at any time without condition. For purposes of this <u>Section 2.10</u>, the determination of the extent of "ownership" of shares shall be made in good faith by the Board, which determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Corporation and the stockholders. An Eligible Stockholder shall include in its Notice of Proxy Access Nomination the number of shares it is deemed to own for the purposes of this <u>Section 2.10</u>.

If, in an election where the number of director nominees does not exceed the number of directors to be elected (an "***Uncontested Election***"), the number of shares voted "for" an incumbent director nominee does not exceed the number of "withhold" votes received by such incumbent director nominee, such incumbent director shall be deemed to have tendered his or her resignation to the Board for consideration following the certification of the election results. The Nominating and Governance Committee of the Corporation shall consider such resignation and make a recommendation to the Board on whether to accept or reject such incumbent director's resignation or whether other action should be taken. The Board shall then consider each such tendered resignation and act on each, taking into account its fiduciary duties to the Corporation and the stockholders. Within 90 days from the date of the

The Board shall nominate for election or re-election as director only candidates who have tendered irrevocable conditional resignations (in substantially the form attached hereto as Annex A) that will be effective upon (i) the failure of such director to receive more "for" votes than "withhold" votes at the next annual meeting at which they face re-election in an Uncontested Election; and (ii) Board acceptance of such resignation. In addition, the Board shall fill director vacancies and new directorships only with candidates who agree to tender, promptly following their appointment to the Board, the same form of resignation tendered by the other directors. The election of directors by the stockholders shall be by written ballot if directed by the chairman of the meeting or if the number of nominees exceeds the number of directors to be elected. Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, cumulative voting for the election of directors shall be prohibited. Except as otherwise provided by applicable law, the rules and regulations of any stock exchange applicable to the Corporation, the Certificate of Incorporation, or these Bylaws, in all matters other than the election of directors and certain non-binding advisory votes described below, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the matter shall be the act of the stockholders. In non-binding advisory matters with more than two possible vote choices, the affirmative vote of a plurality of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the matter shall be the recommendation of the stockholders.

Section 2.13&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Treasury Stock</u>. The Corporation shall not vote, directly or indirectly, shares of its own stock owned by it or any other corporation, if a majority of shares entitled to vote in the election of directors of such corporation is held, directly or indirectly by the Corporation, and such shares will not be counted for quorum purposes; *provided*, *however*, that the foregoing shall not limit the right of the Corporation or such other corporation, to vote stock of the Corporation held in a fiduciary capacity.

One or more persons may be designated as alternate inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act. If no inspector or alternate has been appointed to act or is able to act at a meeting of stockholders and the appointment of an inspector is required by applicable law, the chairman of the meeting shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting. Each inspector, before discharging his duties, shall take and sign an oath to faithfully execute the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of his ability.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses under this <u>Section 7.6</u> shall be contract rights and such rights shall continue as to a Covered Person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee, trustee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of his

If successful in whole or in part, the Covered Person shall be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such claim to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. In any such action, the Corporation shall have the burden of proving that the Covered Person is not entitled to the requested indemnification or advancement of expenses under applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(E)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The rights conferred on any Covered Person by this <u>Section 7.6</u> shall not be exclusive of any other rights that such Covered Person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws, any agreement or vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

Section 7.11&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Severability</u>.

**[Annex A]**

**Form of Irrevocable Conditional Resignation Letter**

Cactus, Inc.<br>920 Memorial City Way, Suite 300<br>Houston, Texas 77024

Reference is hereby made to Section 2.12 of the Amended and Restated Bylaws (as amended, the "***Bylaws***") of Cactus, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "***Company***"), which, among other things, sets forth the Company's director resignation policy (the "***Director Resignation Policy***"). Section 2.12 of the Bylaws provide in relevant part as follows:

Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock to elect directors under specified circumstances, at any meeting at which directors are to be elected, the directors shall be elected by a plurality of votes cast by the holders of shares entitled to vote in the election. If, in an election where the number of director nominees does not exceed the number of directors to be elected (an "***Uncontested Election***"), the number of shares voted "for" an incumbent director nominee does not exceed the number of "withhold" votes received by such incumbent director nominee, such incumbent director shall be deemed to have tendered his or her resignation to the Board for consideration following the certification of the election results. The Nominating and Governance Committee of the Corporation shall consider such resignation and make a recommendation to the Board on whether to accept or reject such incumbent director's resignation or whether other action should be taken. The Board shall then consider each such tendered resignation and act on each, taking into account its fiduciary duties to the Corporation and the stockholders. Within 90 days from the date of the certification of the election results, the Corporation shall publicly disclose the decision of the Board, and, if applicable, the Board's reason for rejecting any such tendered resignation(s). An incumbent director who shall be deemed to have tendered his or her resignation for consideration shall not participate in the Corporation's Nominating and Governance Committee's recommendation or the Board's decision, or any deliberations related thereto. If a director's resignation pursuant to this <u>Section 2.12</u> is accepted by the Board, then the Board may fill the resulting vacancy pursuant to the provisions of <u>Section 3.9</u> or may decrease the size of the Board pursuant to <u>Section 3.2</u>. The Board shall nominate for election or re-election as director only candidates who have tendered irrevocable conditional resignations (in substantially the form attached hereto as <u>Annex A</u>) that will be effective upon (i) the failure of such director to receive more "for" votes than "withhold" votes at the next annual meeting at which they face re-election in an Uncontested Election; and (ii) Board acceptance of such resignation. In addition, the Board shall fill director vacancies and new directorships only with candidates who agree to tender, promptly following their appointment to the Board, the same form of resignation tendered by the other directors. The election of directors by the stockholders shall be by written ballot if directed by the chairman of the meeting or if the number of nominees exceeds the number of directors to be elected. Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, cumulative voting for the election of directors shall be prohibited. Except as otherwise provided by applicable law, the rules and regulations of any stock exchange applicable to the Corporation, the Certificate of Incorporation, or these Bylaws, in all matters other than the election of directors and certain non-binding advisory votes described below, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the matter shall be the act of the stockholders. In non-binding advisory matters with more than two possible vote choices, the affirmative vote of a plurality of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the matter shall be the recommendation of the stockholders.

Active 102035724.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;36&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

------

In accordance with the Director Resignation Policy, I hereby resign from my position as a director of the Company, effective upon (i) my failure to receive more votes "for" my election than "withhold" votes at the next annual meeting at which I face re-election in an Uncontested Election; and (ii) Board acceptance of such resignation.

Very truly yours,
