Exhibit 1
Stock Procedures

US 7099076

PROCEDURES FOR TRANSFERS OF UNIT CORPORATION COMMON STOCK
The following procedures apply to transfers of Common Stock:1
(a)Notice of Substantial Ownership.  Any person (including any Entity) that Beneficially Owns, at any time on or after the Petition Date, Common Stock in an amount sufficient to qualify such person as a Substantial Stockholder shall file with the Court and serve upon (i) the Debtors and their counsel (ii) counsel to the Ad Hoc Group and (iii) counsel to any statutory committees appointed in the chapter 11 cases, if any, (each, an “Official Committee”) (collectively, the “Disclosure Parties”) a notice of such person’s substantial ownership (a “Notice of Substantial Stock Ownership”), in substantially the form annexed to the Order as Exhibit 2, which describes specifically and in detail such person’s ownership of Common Stock, on or before the date that is the later of (x) fifteen calendar days after the entry of the order granting the requested relief or (y) ten business days after such person qualifies as a Substantial Stockholder.  At the election of the filing person, the Notice of Substantial Stock Ownership to be filed with the Court (but not the Notice of Substantial Stock Ownership that is served upon the Disclosure Parties) may be redacted to exclude the taxpayer identification number and the amount of Common Stock Beneficially Owned.
(b)Acquisition of Common Stock.  At least fifteen business days prior to the proposed date of any transfer of Common Stock or exercise of any Option to acquire Common Stock that would result in an increase in the amount of Common Stock Beneficially Owned by any person (including any Entity) that currently is or, as a result of the proposed acquisition transaction, would be a Substantial Stockholder (a “Proposed Acquisition Transaction”), such person or Substantial Stockholder (a “Proposed Transferee”) shall file with the Bankruptcy Court and serve upon the Disclosure Parties a notice of such Proposed Transferee’s intent to purchase, acquire, or otherwise accumulate Common Stock (an “Acquisition Notice”), in substantially the form annexed to the Order as Exhibit 3, which describes specifically and in detail the Proposed Acquisition Transaction.  At the election of the filing person, the Acquisition Notice to be filed with the Bankruptcy Court (but not the Acquisition Notice that is served upon the Disclosure Parties) may be redacted to exclude the taxpayer identification number and the amount of Common Stock Beneficially Owned.
(c)Disposition of Common Stock.  At least fifteen business days prior to the proposed date of any transfer or other disposition of Common Stock that would result in either a decrease in the amount of Common Stock Beneficially Owned by a Substantial Stockholder or person’s (including an Entity’s) ceasing to be a Substantial Stockholder (a “Proposed Disposition Transaction” and, together with a Proposed Acquisition Transaction, a “Proposed Transaction”), such person, Entity or Substantial Stockholder (a “Proposed Transferor”) shall file with the Court and serve upon the Disclosure Parties a notice of such Proposed Transferor’s intent to sell, trade, or otherwise transfer Common Stock (a “Disposition Notice” and, together with an Acquisition Notice, a “Trading Notice”), in substantially the form annexed to the Order as Exhibit 4, which describes specifically and in detail the Proposed Disposition Transaction.  At the election of the filing person, the Trading Notice to be filed with the Court (but not the 

__________________________
1 Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Motion

US 7099076

Trading Notice that is served upon the Disclosure Parties) may be redacted to exclude the taxpayer identification number and the amount of Common Stock Beneficially Owned.
(d)Approval Procedures.  The Debtors, in consultation with the Ad Hoc Group and any Official Committee, shall have fifteen business days after the filing of a Trading Notice (the “Approval Period”) to file with the Court and serve on a Proposed Transferee or a Proposed Transferor, as the case may be, a written approval (each, an “Approval”) to any Proposed Transaction described in such Trading Notice.  If the Debtors, in consultation with the Ad Hoc Group and any Official Committee, files an Approval by the expiration of the Approval Period (the “Approval Deadline”), then the applicable Proposed Transaction may proceed. If the Debtors do not all file an Approval approving the Proposed Transaction prior to the Approval Deadline, then such Proposed Transaction may not be consummated unless approved by a final and nonappealable order of the Court; provided, however, the Debtors, in consultation with the Ad Hoc Group and any Official Committee, may subsequently approve the proposed transaction in writing, in which case a Court Order is not necessary. Any further Proposed Transaction must be the subject of an additional Trading Notice and Approval Period.
(e)Noncompliance with the Stock Procedures. Any transfer of Common Stock in violation of these Stock Procedures shall be null and void ab initio as an act in violation of the automatic stay under section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code and pursuant to the Bankruptcy Court’s equitable powers under section 105(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.  Furthermore, the sanctions for any person (including any Entity) that acquires Common Stock in violation of these Stock Procedures shall be reversal of the noncompliant transaction or such other (or additional) measures as the Court may consider appropriate. 
(f)Debtors’ Right to Waive. The Debtors, in consultation with the Ad Hoc Group and any Official Committee, may waive, in writing, any and all restrictions, stays, and notification procedures contained in this Notice; provided, however, the Debtors shall file any such waiver with the Court.
(g)Notice of Order.  Within five business days after the entry of the Order approving the Stock Procedures, a proposed form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A, the Debtors shall: (i) submit a notice of the entry of the Order, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit 5 to the Order (modified for publication), for publication on the Bloomberg newswire service and the Depository Trust Company Legal Notice System (also known as LENS); (ii) post such notice, together with a copy of the Order, on the website maintained by the Debtors’ claims and notice agent, Prime Clerk LLC; and (iii) serve such notice, together with a copy of the Order, on (A) the Office of the United States Trustee for the Southern District of Texas (“U.S. Trustee”), (B) the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, (C) the Office of the United States Attorney General for the Southern District of Texas, (D) the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), (E) American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, and (F) all identified registered holders of the Stock (including any bank, broker, or other agent holding Stock on behalf of beneficial holders).
(h)Definitions.  For purposes of these Stock Procedures, the following terms have the following meanings:
2
US 7099076

(i)   “Common Stock” shall mean all common stock of Unit.  For the avoidance of doubt, by operation of the definition of “Beneficial Ownership,” an owner of an Option to acquire stock may be treated as the owner of such stock.
(ii)   “Beneficial Ownership” means beneficial ownership of Common Stock as determined in accordance with applicable rules under 382 of the Tax Code, the regulations promulgated by the U.S. Department of the Treasury under the Tax Code (the “Treasury Regulations”) (other than Treasury Regulations section 1.382-2T(h)(2)(i)(A)), and rulings issued by the IRS, and as described herein, and, thus, to the extent provided in those sources, from time to time shall include, without limitation, direct, indirect and constructive ownership (e.g., (i) a holding company would be considered to beneficially own all shares of Common Stock owned or acquired by its subsidiaries, (ii) shareholders, partners, members or other owners of Entities would be considered to beneficially own a ratable share of Common Stock owned by such entity, (iii) an individual and such individual’s family members may be treated as one individual, (iv) persons acting in concert to make a coordinated acquisition of equity securities may be treated as a single entity, and (v) a holder may be considered to beneficially own equity securities that such holder has an Option to acquire). Any variation of the term “ownership” (e.g., own or owned) shall have the same meaning. An “Option” includes all interests described in Treasury Regulations section 1.382-4(d)(9), including any contingent purchase right, warrant, convertible debt, put, call, stock subject to a risk of forfeiture, contract to acquire stock, or similar interest, regardless of whether it is contingent or otherwise not currently exercisable.
(iii)   “Entity” shall mean any “entity” as such term is defined in Treasury Regulations section 1.382-3(a), including any group of persons acting pursuant to a formal or informal understanding among themselves to make a coordinated acquisition of Common Stock.
(iv)“Substantial Stockholder” shall mean any person (including any Entity) that beneficially owns at least 2,458,135 shares of Common Stock (representing approximately 4.50% of all issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock).

TRANSFERS OF COMMON STOCK OF THE DEBTORS’ ESTATES 

TO ALL DIRECT AND INDIRECT HOLDERS OF, AND PROSPECTIVE HOLDERS OF COMMON STOCK ISSUED BY UNIT CORPORATION:
PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that on May 22, 2020 (the “Petition Date”), the above-captioned debtors and debtors in possession (collectively, the “Debtors”) commenced cases under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”).  Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code operates as a stay of any act to obtain possession of property of the Debtors’ estates or of property from the Debtors’ estates or to exercise control over property of the Debtors’ estates.
PLEASE TAKE FURTHER NOTICE that on the Petition Date, the Debtors filed a motion seeking entry of an interim order, and subsequently a final order, pursuant to sections 105(a), 362, and 541 of the Bankruptcy Code establishing notification procedures and approving restrictions on certain transfers of Common Stock of, and Claims against, the Debtors and their estates (the “Motion”).2  
PLEASE TAKE FURTHER NOTICE that on [___], the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Court”), having jurisdiction over the chapter 11 cases, entered the order (the “Order”) establishing procedures (the “Stock Procedures”) on a final basis with respect to direct and indirect trading and transfers of common stock issued by Unit Corporation (“Common Stock”).

US 7099076

PLEASE TAKE FURTHER NOTICE that the Stock Procedures restrict transactions involving, and require notices of the holdings of and proposed transactions by, any person or group of persons that is or, as a result of a proposed transaction, would become, a Substantial Stockholder of Common Stock.  For purposes of the Stock Procedures, a “Substantial Stockholder” is any person or, in certain cases, group of persons that Beneficially Own, directly or indirectly (and/or owns options to acquire) at least 2,458,135 shares of Common Stock (representing approximately 4.50% of all issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock).”  Any transfer of stock of the Debtors in violation of the Stock Procedures will be null and void ab initio and may lead to contempt, compensatory damages, punitive damages, or other sanctions being imposed by the Bankruptcy Court.
PLEASE TAKE FURTHER NOTICE that in addition, the Motion contemplates certain additional procedures (the “Claims Procedures”), that set forth certain future circumstances under which any person, group of persons, or entity that has acquired, or as a result of a proposed transaction would acquire, Beneficial Ownership of a substantial amount of claims against the Debtors can be required (i) to file notice of their holdings of such claims and of such proposed transaction, which transaction may be restricted, and (ii) upon a subsequent order of the Bankruptcy Court, after notice and hearing, to sell, by a specified date following the confirmation of a chapter 11 plan of the Debtors, all or a portion of any claims acquired during the Chapter 11 Cases.
PLEASE TAKE FURTHER NOTICE that to the extent the Debtors determine that the reorganized Debtors likely will benefit from the application of section 382(l)(5) of the Tax Code and reasonably anticipate that Reorganized Unit Corp. will invoke such section, the Debtors will seek approval of the Claims Procedures on a final basis by separate motion.
