Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan

On April 27, 2018, the stockholders of Flotek Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) approved the Company’s 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The terms of the Plan were previously disclosed in the Company’s Schedule 14A Proxy Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2018 (the “2018 Proxy Statement”). The full text of the Plan was included as Exhibit A to the 2018 Proxy Statement, which is incorporated by reference into this Item 5.02.

2018 Performance Unit Plan

On April 27, 2018, in connection with the stockholder approval of the Plan, shares became available for the Company’s 2018 Performance Unit Plan (the “2018 PUP”) to provide appropriate incentives to work towards the continued growth and success of the Company.

The 2018 PUP permits the Company to grant shares of restricted stock and Performance Units (collectively, the “Awards”) to its senior executive officers. Pursuant to the 2018 PUP, the Awards will be based on a dollar value (the “Award Value”) determined by multiplying a factor as set forth in the table below by the annual salary of the participant. The total Award Value for each participant is allocated as follows:

 

    40% restricted stock;

 

    30% Performance Units based on Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”); and

 

    30% Performance Units based on Return on Tangible Assets (“ROTA”).

The total Award Value for each participant is converted to restricted stock or restricted stock units by dividing the Award Value by $8.00. The shares of restricted stock vest ratably over a three-year period.

The TSR and ROTA Performance Units have a two-year performance period ending December 31, 2019. Any shares earned will vest on December 31, 2020. “Total Shareholder Return” means the return on an investment in the common stock of a company during a specified period, considering dividends and the change in stock price. Participants can earn restricted shares equal to 0% to 200% of the TSR Target Units depending on the performance of the Company’s stock relative to the Russell 2000 Index. “Return on Tangible Assets” means (i) the consolidated income of the Company before taxes, divided by (ii) the total consolidated assets of the Company, minus goodwill, other intangible assets, and deferred tax assets. Participants can earn restricted shares equal to 0% to 200% of the ROTA Target Units depending on the Company’s Return on Tangible Assets.
