NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises above, which are incorporated in this Agreement as if fully set forth below, and

1. Closing;

shall be irrevocable, subject to the terms set forth in this Agreement.

 

(b) Closing.
The closing of the purchase of the Private Placement Warrants (the “Warrant Closing”) shall take place at the
offices of the Company, or such other place as determined by the Company (including remotely via delivery of electronic documents),
on the closing of the IPO (the “Warrant Closing Date”). The closing of the purchase of the Founder Shares (the
“Founder Shares Closing”) shall take place at the offices of the Company, or such other place as determined
by the Company (including remotely via delivery of electronic documents), on the closing of the Business Combination (as defined
below) (the “Founder Shares Closing Date”). As used herein, “Closing” means the Warrant
Closing or the Founder Shares Closing, as applicable, and “Closing Date” means the Warrant Closing Date or
the Founder Shares Closing Date, as applicable. If (i) the closing of the IPO has not occurred for any reason by September
14, 2020 or (ii) the Company is liquidated or dissolved prior to the Founder Shares Closing Date, then, unless the Subscriber
otherwise agrees in writing, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force or effect.

 

(c) Closing
Conditions. The Subscriber’s obligation to purchase the Securities and Ranadivé’s and the Company’s
obligation to sell the Securities to Subscriber is conditioned upon satisfaction of the following conditions precedent (any or
all of which may be waived by the Company, the Sponsors and the Subscriber in its sole discretion with respect to the other parties’
conditions):

 

(i) On
the applicable Closing Date, no legal, administrative or regulatory action, suit or proceeding shall be pending which seeks to
restrain or prohibit the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

 

     

     

    

 

(ii) The
representations and warranties of the Company, the Sponsors and the Subscriber contained in this Agreement shall have been true
and correct on the date of this Agreement and shall be true and correct on the applicable Closing Date as if made on such Closing
Date.

 

  (d) Subscription
and Sale of the Securities. Subject to Section 1(f) hereof, (i) on the Warrant Closing Date, the Subscriber shall purchase
from the Company, and the Company shall issue and sell to the Subscriber, the number of Private Placement Warrants indicated on
the signature page hereof, in consideration for the Subscriber’s purchase price for such Private Placement Warrants indicated
on the signature page hereof (the “Warrant Purchase Price”), on the terms and conditions described herein and
(ii) on the Founder Shares Closing Date, the Subscriber shall purchase from Ranadivé, and Ranadivé shall transfer
and sell to the Subscriber, the number of Founder Shares indicated on the signature page hereof, in consideration for the Subscriber’s
purchase price for such Founder Shares indicated on the signature page hereof (the “Founder Shares Purchase Price”
and, together with the Warrant Purchase Price, the “Purchase Price”), on the terms and conditions described
herein. The number of Securities and the amount of the Purchase Price indicated on the signature page hereof may be increased
or decreased pursuant to Section 1(f) hereof; provided, however, that if the actual number of Public Units offered and sold in
the IPO is less than 35,000,000, then the Subscriber shall not be obligated to purchase the Securities and, at the Subscriber’s
option, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force or effect.

 

 (e) Purchase
of the Securities. The Subscriber’s delivery of this Agreement to the Company shall be preceded or accompanied by an
originally executed Form W-9, W-8BEN or W-8IMY, as applicable. The Company shall notify the Subscriber in writing of the anticipated
date of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement (as defined below) (the “Effective Date”) at least
three (3) Business Days (as defined below) prior to the Effective Date, and the Subscriber shall remit the Warrant Purchase Price
to the Company’s transfer agent (to be held in escrow pending the consummation of the IPO), by wire transfer of immediately
available funds or other means approved by the Company, on the date that is one (1) Business Day prior to the Effective Date,
or such other date as the Company and the Subscriber may agree upon in writing. If the consummation of the IPO has not occurred
for any reason by the date that is seven (7) Business Days after the date on which the Subscriber remitted the Warrant Purchase
Price to the Company’s transfer agent, then, unless the Subscriber otherwise agrees in writing, the Company shall promptly
cause its transfer agent to return the Warrant Purchase Price to the Subscriber without interest or deduction, and this Agreement
shall terminate and thereafter have no force or effect. The Company shall notify the Subscriber in writing of the anticipated
consummation date of the Business Combination at least three (3) Business Days prior to such date, and Ranadivé shall deliver
the Founder Shares to or as instructed by the Subscriber against payment of the Founder Shares Purchase Price to accounts indicated
by Ranadivé by wire transfer of immediately available funds or other means approved by Ranadivé, on the Founder
Shares Closing Date, or such other date as Ranadivé and the Subscriber may agree upon in writing. As used herein, “Business
Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions
are generally authorized or required by law or regulation to close in the City of New York, New York.

 

 (f) Purchase
of Additional Securities; Return of Unused Amount of Purchase Price. It is currently contemplated that the IPO shall raise
$402,500,000 (including exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option in connection with the IPO (the “Over-allotment
Option”)). The Subscriber agrees that if the size of the IPO is increased or decreased (subject to Section 1(d) above)
for any reason (excluding an increase as a result of the Over-allotment Option being exercised), the amount of the Subscriber’s
investment will be either increased or decreased, as applicable, so that the Subscriber’s percentage of the aggregate investment
in Private Placement Warrants made by the Subscriber and other investors of the Company remains the same. Likewise, the percentage
of Founder Shares to be sold to Subscriber compared to all other holders of the Company’s Class B common stock will remain
the same. The Company shall promptly notify the Subscriber in writing of any such increase or decrease in the size of the IPO.
If the size of the IPO is increased prior to the consummation of the IPO, the Subscriber agrees that it will deliver the purchase
price for such additional Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.50 per warrant to the Company as promptly as practicable
after notice by the Company of such increase and, in such case, the number of Founder Shares to be sold and the Founder Shares
Purchase Price to be paid by Subscriber will likewise increase. If the size of the IPO is decreased (including a decrease as a
result of the Over-allotment Option not being exercised), subject to Section 1(d) above, the Company shall promptly cause its
transfer agent to return the unused portion of the Warrant Purchase Price to the Subscriber without interest or deduction and
a lesser number of Private Placement Warrants will be issued to Subscriber on the Warrant Closing Date and, in such case, the
number of Founder Shares to be sold and the Founder Shares the Founder Shares Purchase Price to be paid by Subscriber will likewise
decrease.

 2. Representations
and Warranties of Subscriber. Subscriber represents and warrants as follows:

 

(a) (i) Subscriber
is an “accredited investor” as defined by Rule 501 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
Act”) as evidenced by the attached Accredited Investor Status Checklist and has such knowledge and experience in financial
and business matters that Subscriber is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of Subscriber’s investment in the Securities,
of making an informed investment decision with respect thereto, and has the ability and capacity to protect Subscriber’s
interests. The Subscriber shall submit to the Company such further assurances of accredited status as may reasonably be requested
by the Company.

 

(ii) Subscriber
understands that the Company and the Sponsors are relying on the accuracy of these representations and warranties and understands
the significance of the Subscriber’s representations and warranties to the Company and Sponsors that the Subscriber is an accredited
investor. By executing this Agreement, Subscriber agrees to notify the Company of any material changes affecting Subscriber’s
status prior to the Company’s acceptance of the subscription.

 

(b) Subscriber
understands that the Securities are not presently registered and the Company and Sponsors have no obligation to register the Securities
or assist the Subscriber in obtaining an exemption from registration except as described in the registration statement relating
to the IPO (“Registration Statement”). Subscriber understands that the Private Placement Warrants will not
be registered under the Securities Act on the ground that the issuance of the Private Placement Warrants is exempt under either
Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act or Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act as a transaction by an issuer not involving
any public offering and that, in the view of the SEC, the statutory basis for the exception claimed would not be present if any
of the representations and warranties of Subscriber contained in this Agreement are untrue or, notwithstanding the Subscriber’s
representations and warranties, the Subscriber currently has in mind acquiring any of the Securities for resale upon the occurrence
or non-occurrence of some predetermined event.

 

(c) Subscriber
is purchasing and acquiring the Securities for investment purposes and not with a view to distribution or resale, nor with the
intention of selling, transferring or otherwise disposing of all or any part thereof for any particular price, or at any particular
time, or upon the happening of any particular event or circumstance, except selling, transferring, or disposing the Securities
made in full compliance with all applicable provisions of the Securities Act, the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC
thereunder, and applicable state securities laws; and that Subscriber understands that an investment in the Securities is not
a liquid investment.

 

    3

     

    

 

(d) Subscriber
acknowledges that there exists no public market for the Securities, that no such public market may develop in the future, the
Securities, when sold or issued, will be “restricted securities” and as a result, Subscriber acknowledges that the
Securities may be required to held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or unless an exemption
from such registration is available. Subscriber is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act which
permit resales of securities purchased in a private placement subject to certain limitations and to the satisfaction of certain
conditions provided for thereunder, including, among other things, the existence of a public market for the securities, the availability
of certain current public information about the company issuing the securities, the resale occurring not less than six months
after a party has purchased and paid for the security to be sold, the sale being effected through a “broker’s transaction”
or in transactions directly with a “market maker” and the number of securities being sold during any three-month period
not exceeding specified limitations. Subscriber further acknowledges that the Securities will be subject to certain lock-up restrictions,
as described in this Agreement, and may only be transferred pursuant to the terms of such lock-up. Subscriber also acknowledges
that Rule 144 is not available for the resale of securities initially issued by shell companies or issuers that have been at any
time previously a shell company and that Rule 144 will provide an exception to this prohibition only if (i) the Company has then
ceased to be a shell company; (ii) the Company is then subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”); (iii) the Company has then filed all Exchange Act reports
and material required to be filed, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months (or such shorter period that the Company was
required to file such reports and materials), other than Form 8-K reports; and (iv) at least one year has elapsed from the time
that the Company filed current Form 10 type information with the SEC reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company.

 

(e) Subscriber
acknowledges that Subscriber has had the opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from the Company or any authorized
person acting on its behalf concerning the Company’s proposed business plan and to obtain any additional information, to
the extent possessed by the Company (or to the extent it could have been acquired by the Company without unreasonable effort or
expense) necessary to verify the accuracy of the information received by Subscriber. In connection therewith, Subscriber acknowledges
that Subscriber has had the opportunity to discuss the Company’s proposed business, management and financial affairs with
the Company’s management or any authorized person acting on its behalf. Subscriber has received and reviewed all the information
concerning the Securities and the Company’s business, management, financial affairs, prospects and risks, both written and
oral, that Subscriber desires. In determining whether to make this investment, Subscriber has relied solely on (i) Subscriber’s
own knowledge and understanding of the Company and its proposed business based upon Subscriber’s own due diligence investigations
and the information furnished pursuant to this paragraph, (ii) the information described in subparagraph 2(g) below and (iii)
the representations and warranties of the Company and the Sponsors made to the Subscriber in this Agreement.

 

(f) Subscriber
has all requisite legal and other power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to carry out and perform Subscriber’s
obligations under the terms of this Agreement. This Agreement constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of Subscriber,
enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to laws of general application relating to bankruptcy, insolvency and the relief
of debtors and rules of law governing specific performance, injunctive relief or other general principals of equity, whether such
enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or law.

 

(g) Subscriber
has carefully considered and has discussed with the Subscriber’s legal, tax, accounting and financial advisors, to the extent
the Subscriber has deemed necessary, the suitability of this investment and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement for
the Subscriber’s particular federal, state, local and foreign tax and financial situation and has independently determined
that this investment and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are a suitable investment for the Subscriber. Subscriber
has relied solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents. Subscriber
understands that Subscriber (and not the Company) shall be responsible for Subscriber’s own tax liability that may arise
as a result of this investment or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

 

    4

     

    

  

(h) There
are no actions, suits, proceedings or investigations pending against Subscriber or Subscriber’s assets before any court
or governmental agency (nor, to Subscriber’s knowledge, is there any threat thereof) which would impair in any way Subscriber’s
ability to enter into and fully perform Subscriber’s commitments and obligations under this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby.

 

(i) The
execution, delivery and performance of and compliance with this Agreement and the sale and issuance of the Securities will not
result in any violation of, or conflict with, or constitute a default under, any of Subscriber’s articles of incorporation,
by-laws, operating agreement, partnership agreement, or trust agreement, if applicable, or any agreement to which Subscriber is
a party or by which it is bound.

 

(j) Subscriber
acknowledges that an investment in the Securities is speculative and involves a high degree of risk and that Subscriber can bear
the economic risk of the purchase of the Securities, including a total loss of its investment. Subscriber acknowledges and understands
and agrees that in the event the Company is unable to consummate an initial merger, stock exchange, asset acquisition or other
similar business combination (the “Business Combination”) within a certain period of time following the closing
of the IPO, then Subscriber may lose its entire investment.

 

(k) Subscriber
understands that other investors in the Company, including officers and directors of the Company, may receive better terms than
those being offered to the Subscriber hereby.

 

(l) Subscriber
recognizes that no federal, state or foreign agency has reviewed, recommended or endorsed the purchase of the Securities or any
facts or circumstances related thereto.

 

(m) Subscriber
is aware that (i) the Company will have no operations and no commitments for any additional capital that may be needed in the
future and (ii) the Company will be a shell company. Subscriber has experience in evaluating the risks of investing in early stage
development companies and blank check companies.

 

(n) Subscriber
represents that Subscriber is not purchasing or acquiring the Securities as a result of or subsequent to any advertisement, article,
notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over the Internet, television
or radio or presented at any seminar or meeting or any public announcement or filing of or by the Company or any of its affiliates,
agents or representatives.

Subscriber has not been furnished with any oral representation or oral information in connection with or in any way relating to
the Private Placement or the proposed business or prospects of the Company.

 

(q) Subscriber
represents and warrants it has not engaged any finder, broker, agent, financial advisor or other intermediary, nor any purchaser
representative or any broker-dealer acting as a broker, that is entitled to any compensation in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.

 

    5

     

    

  

(r) Subscriber
acknowledges and understands that it will be required to waive certain redemption rights with regard to the Founder Shares, and
Subscriber further acknowledges being familiar with such waivers. Subscriber further acknowledges that if the Company does not

(3) will

 5. Additional
Agreements.

 

(a) [Reserved]

 

(b) Lockup.

 

(i) Subscriber
agrees that the Founder Shares may not be transferred, assigned or sold (except to certain permitted transferees as described
in the Registration Statement) until the earlier to occur of: (1) one year after the consummation of the Business Combination
and (2) the date following the completion of the Business Combination on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share
exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of its shareholders having the right to exchange their shares of common
stock for cash, securities or other property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the closing price of the Company’s common
stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and
the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Business Combination,
the Founder Shares will be released from the lockup. The Founder Shares shall contain a legend reflecting the foregoing lockup.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Subscriber shall not be prohibited from effecting a short sale with
securities that do not constitute “Securities” under this Agreement.

 

(ii) Following
the expiration of the transfer restrictions set forth in clause (i) above, if the Securities are eligible to be sold without restriction
under, and without the Company being in compliance with the current public information requirements of, Rule 144 under the Securities
Act, or if they are registered for resale under the Securities Act pursuant to a shelf registration statement, then at the Subscriber’s
written request, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Company’s transfer agent to remove the
legend referred to in clause (i) above, subject to compliance by the Subscriber with the reasonable and customary procedures for
such removal required by the Company or its transfer agent. In connection therewith, if required by the Company’s transfer
agent, the Company will promptly cause an opinion of counsel to be delivered to and maintained with its transfer agent, together
with any other authorizations, certificates and directions required by the transfer agent that authorize and direct the transfer
agent to issue such Securities without any such legend.

 

(c) Registration
Rights. The Company and Subscriber will enter into a registration rights agreement on the Effective Date substantially
in the form provided to the Subscriber prior to the date hereof granting the Subscriber customary registration rights with respect
to the Founder Shares and Private Placement Warrants (and underlying shares of Class A common stock of the Company) as described
in the Registration Statement.

 

(d) Reduction
If Subscriber Exercises Redemption Rights or Sells Shares. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that the number of Founder Shares
to be sold to Subscriber by Ranadivé shall be decreased by up to 70% (and the Founder Shares Purchase Price to be paid
by Subscriber shall be decreased accordingly) if Subscriber holds less than 6.39% of the total number of shares of Class A common
stock of the Company sold in the IPO (including shares sold pursuant to the Over-allotment Option) (“IPO Shares”;
and 6.39% of the total number of IPO Shares being referred to herein as the “Required Number”) on the closing
date of the Business Combination (with the number of IPO Shares still held by the Subscriber being referred to herein as the “Subscriber’s
Number”). The percentage of Founder Shares to be sold shall be equal to (i) the Required Number less the Subscriber’s
Number divided by (ii) the Required Number, up to a maximum of 70%. For the avoidance of doubt, the Subscriber shall not be required
to forfeit, transfer, exchange or amend the terms of any Private Placement Warrants as a result of a decrease in the number of
Founder Shares to be issued pursuant to this provision.

 

    9

     

    

  

(e) Changes
in Connection with Business Combination. If the Sponsors deem it necessary in order to facilitate the Business Combination
for the holders of Founder Shares to forfeit, transfer, exchange or amend the terms of all or any portion of such Securities or
to enter into any other arrangements with respect to such Securities to facilitate the consummation of the Business Combination
(each, a “Change in Investment”), the Subscriber will enter into any such agreement or arrangement involving
a Change in Investment (including any amendment to this Agreement, including an amendment to decrease the number of Founder Shares
to be issued on the Founder Shares Closing Date) or otherwise facilitate or take any action to affect or permit any Change in
Investment; provided, however, that to the extent any Change in Investment would materially and adversely affect Subscriber’s
Founder Shares disproportionately to all other holders of such securities, the prior written consent of Subscriber shall be required.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the number of Founder Shares to be issued to Subscriber shall not be decreased to the extent (and
only to the extent) that that the number of Founder Shares actually issued to the Subscriber would be less than 30% of the number
of Founder Shares otherwise expected to be issued to it hereunder (including those issued to it in connection with any Over-allotment
Closing), and no Change in Investment shall apply to, adversely affect or restrict the transfer of, such Founders Shares. For
the avoidance of doubt, the Subscriber shall not be required to forfeit, transfer, exchange or amend the terms of any Private
Placement Warrants in connection with a Change in Investment.

 

(f) Provision

        expenses incurred in connection with earning such revenues.

Dear John:

 

In connection with
and effective immediately following the consummation of the transactions (the “Merger”) contemplated by that
certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 3, 2020, by and among KLX Energy Services Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”),
a Delaware corporation, Krypton Intermediate, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary
of the Company, Krypton Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and Quintana
Energy Services Inc., a Delaware corporation, you have resigned from your position as a Class III Director on the Board of Directors
(the “Board”) of the Company, and the Board has re-appointed you to the Board as a Class II Director. The Board
has additionally approved your appointment as Non-Executive Chairman (“Chairman”) of the Board for the period
commencing immediately following the consummation of the Merger and ending on the final date of your current Board term as a Class
II Director or, if earlier, the date of your resignation or removal from the Board (such period, the “Term”).
During the Term, you shall render such services as are customarily associated with the position of Chairman and such other services
as the Company may, from time to time, reasonably require of you consistent with such position.

 

During the Term, as
compensation for performing your services as Chairman, you shall receive an annual cash retainer equal to $250,000, which retainer
shall be earned on a monthly basis, and paid by the Company on a quarterly basis in arrears not later than the 15th day following
the end of each calendar quarter. Upon termination of the Term for any reason, you shall be paid any earned but unpaid portion
of the retainer for any completed months in the applicable calendar quarter. During the Term, you shall be eligible to receive
annual equity awards under the Company’s Long-Term Incentive Plan or any successor plan thereto that are substantially consistent
with those granted to other non-employee members of the Board, as such equity awards may be determined from time to time by the
Board. During the Term, your outstanding restricted shares shall continue to remain outstanding subject to their terms.

 

During the Term, you
shall be entitled to any rights and benefits pursuant to the Company’s travel policy (including, without limitation, business
use of the Company’s corporate aircraft, provided that you coordinate with the Company’s Chief Executive Officer prior
to any such use) and any other benefits made available to non-employee members of the Board generally, and shall receive reimbursement
for all reasonable and necessary travel, business entertainment, and other out-of-pocket business expenses incurred or expended
by you in connection with the performance of your duties hereunder in accordance with, and subject to the terms and conditions
of, the Company’s expense reimbursement policy. In addition, you shall be eligible to be indemnified by the Company for any
claim arising out of or in connection with your service as Chairman in the same manner and to the same extent as the Company indemnifies
each of its non-employee members of the Board.

 

    

     

    

 

You shall at all times
during the Term be treated as an independent contractor and shall be responsible for the payment of all taxes with respect to all
amounts paid to you as compensation for the services provided hereunder. Accordingly, the Company will not deduct from compensation
paid to you any federal, state or local income taxes, disability insurance, social security or other payroll taxes, payments for
unemployment compensation or any other type of withholding.

 

This letter (“Letter”)
is intended by the parties as a final expression of their agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof and is intended as
a complete and exclusive statement of the terms and conditions thereof and supersedes and replaces all prior negotiations and agreements
between the parties hereto, whether written or oral, with respect to the subject matter hereof. Except as otherwise expressly set
forth herein, you shall not be eligible for any other compensation or benefits for your services during the Term.

 

This Letter shall be
governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without reference to the principles of conflicts of law. This Letter may be amended,
modified or superseded, and any of the terms hereof may be waived, only by a written instrument executed by the parties hereto.
The Company may assign its rights and obligations under this Letter to any successor to all or substantially all of the business
or the assets of the Company (by merger or otherwise). This Letter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of you, the Company,
and each of your and its respective successors, assigns and legal representatives, executors, administrators, heirs, distributees,
devisees, and legatees, as applicable. None of your rights or obligations may be assigned or transferred by you, other than your
rights to payments hereunder, which may be transferred only by will or operation of law.

 

    

     

    

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF,
the parties have duly executed this Letter as of the date first written above.
