The Parties shall consult with each other in issuing any press releases with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, provided, that consultation with the Notes Agent shall only be required in connection with any press release in which reference is made to the Notes Agent, and neither the Company nor any Purchaser shall issue any such press release nor otherwise make any such public statement without the prior consent of the Company, with respect to any such press release of any Purchaser, or without the prior consent of the Purchasers, with respect to any such press release of the Company, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, except if such disclosure is required by Law, in which case the disclosing party shall promptly provide the other party with prior notice of such public statement or communication.

(ii)    The Company shall timely file all required reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as applicable. The Company understands and confirms that the Purchasers will rely on the foregoing covenant and the covenant in Section 5.1(d)(i) above in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.

(g)    Listing of Class A Common Stock. Beginning promptly following the date of this Agreement, the Company shall take all reasonable actions necessary to cause the Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Equity Linked Notes at the initial Conversion Price to be listed on the NASDAQ. Further, if the Company applies to have the Class A Common Stock traded on any other principal stock exchange or market, it shall include in such application the Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Equity Linked Notes at the then applicable Conversion Price and will take such other action as is necessary to cause such Class A Common Stock to be so listed.

(h)    Subsequent Equity Sales. The Company shall not, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that no Affiliate of the Company shall, sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any “security” (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that will be integrated with the offer or sale of the Notes or the Class A Common Stock to be issued upon the conversion of the Equity Linked Notes in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Notes to the Purchasers or the issuance of the Class A Common Stock upon conversion of the Equity Linked Notes.

(i)    Successor Corporation Substituted. So long as the Notes are outstanding, the Company shall not consolidate or merge, or sell, assign, transfer, convey or dispose of all or substantially all of its assets or the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, unless the surviving entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such consolidation, merger, sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition, the provisions of this Agreement referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the surviving entity and not to the Company), and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Agreement with the same effect as if such surviving entity had been named as the Company herein. In any such

-24-

event (other than any transfer by way of lease), the predecessor Company shall be released and discharged from all liabilities and obligations in respect of the Notes and this Agreement and the predecessor Company may be dissolved, wound up or liquidated at any time thereafter.

(j)    Collateral; Subsequently Acquired Subsidiaries. The complete payment and performance of this Agreement and the Notes shall be secured by the “Collateral” described as such in the Security Documents. The Company and each Guarantor shall execute all applicable Security Documents necessary to grant a security interest in all of the Collateral it owns to the extent permitted under the Intercreditor Agreement. Each Guarantor created or acquired after the Closing shall execute a joinder to the Security Agreement and to all applicable Security Documents necessary to grant a security interest in all of the Collateral it owns to the Notes Agent (for the ratable benefit of the Notes Agent and the Holders) to the extent permitted under the Intercreditor Agreement. In no event shall any terms or undertakings of the Company and the Guarantors in the Security Agreement be more restrictive or burdensome than the Existing Security Agreements as in effect on the date hereof, and as such Existing Security Agreements may be amended, restated or modified from time to time after the date hereof, or violate, conflict with or contravene any terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the Security Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall prevail and control.

Section 5.2    Covenants of the Purchasers. Each of the Purchasers hereby agrees, severally and not jointly, with the Company as set forth in this Section 5.2:

(a)    Conditions Precedent. Each of the Purchasers shall use its commercially reasonable efforts promptly to take or cause to be taken all action and promptly to do or cause to be done all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law and regulations to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 5.2(a) shall obligate any Purchaser to waive any right or condition under this Agreement.

(b)    Transfer Restrictions Regarding the Notes. Each Purchaser agrees not to offer, sell or otherwise transfer any Notes except to an Affiliate of such Purchaser or pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and, in each case, in compliance with any applicable securities Laws of any state of the United States and any other applicable jurisdiction and subject to the terms of this Agreement.

(c)    Short Selling Acknowledgement and Agreement. Each Purchaser understands and acknowledges, severally and not jointly with any other Purchaser, that the Commission currently takes the position that coverage of Short Sales of securities “against the box” prior to the effective date of a registration statement is a violation of Section 5 of the Securities Act. Each Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, that it will not engage in any Short Sales that result in the disposition of the Class A Common Stock acquired pursuant to a conversion of the Equity Linked Notes by the Purchaser until such time as the Shelf Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) is declared or deemed effective by the Commission.

Section 6.2    Acceleration; Waiver of Past Defaults and Recission.

(a)    Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, if any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(e), (f) or (g)) occurs and is continuing, then and in every such case the Requisite Holders may declare 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest on all the outstanding Notes (including but not limited to any outstanding accrued but not yet capitalized PIK Interest and all outstanding capitalized PIK Interest) to be due and payable immediately by notice in writing to the Company specifying the Event of Default(s). Upon any such declaration, all such outstanding Note Obligations shall become due and payable in cash on the Business Day following delivery of such notice in writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default in Section 6.1(e), (f) or (g) occurs with respect to the Company, all outstanding Note Obligations shall become due and payable immediately without further action, notice or declaration on the part of any Holder.

(b)    The Requisite Holders, by written notice to the Company and the Notes Agent, may (x) waive any past Event of Default and its consequences and (y) at any time after a declaration of acceleration has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained as hereinafter in this Article VI provided, rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences, except, in each case, with respect to an Event of Default described in Section 6.1(a) or Section 6.1(b) (which, in each case shall require the approval of each Holder directly affected by such Event of Default), if: (i) such rescission will not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction; and (ii) all existing Events of Default (other than the non-payment of any principal amount or interest or any other Note Obligation that became due solely by such declaration of acceleration) have been cured or waived.

Upon any such waiver, the Event of Default which has been waived shall cease to exist and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every other purpose of this Agreement; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default or impair any right consequent. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon. The Requisite Holders shall provide the Notes Agent a copy of each notice of an Event of Default promptly upon the delivery thereof to the Maker.

Section 6.3    Holders May File Proofs of Claim. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Holders and the Notes Agent are authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Holders of the Notes or the Notes Agent, as applicable, allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company (or any other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its Property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other Property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding.

Section 6.4    Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Agreement and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to such Holder, then

-27-

and in every such case the Company and the Holders shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

Section 6.5    Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by Law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at Law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

Section 6.6    Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article VI or by Law to the Holders, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and the rights of the Notes Agent under Section 10.1, may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Holders, as the case may be. Holders cannot exercise rights and remedies on the Collateral, as the Notes Agent is vested with this right (at the direction at the Requisite Holders).

-31-

Section 8.2    Indemnification by Purchasers. Each Purchaser severally and not jointly agrees to indemnify and hold the Company, its Affiliates, any of its or their Affiliates, and any of its or their respective Representatives, successors, stockholders and partners (each, a “Company Indemnitee”) harmless from and against any and all Losses to which any Company Indemnitee may become subject to the extent resulting from, due or are based upon (i) any inaccuracy in, breach of or failure to comply with, any representation, warranty, or covenant made to the Company in this Agreement or any Transaction Document by such Purchaser, or (ii) any information furnished by such Purchaser in writing to the Company expressly for use in any preliminary prospectus, prospectus or issuer free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 433 of the Securities Act) relating thereto, any amendment or supplement thereto or any document incorporated by reference therein; provided that the liability of each Purchaser shall be in proportion to, and shall be limited to, such Purchaser’s Notes Purchase Price.

Section 8.3    Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings.

(a)    Any Person entitled to indemnification under this Article VIII shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not limit the rights of such Person or relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it may have under Sections 8.1 and 8.2 above unless and only to the extent that failure to give such notice materially prejudices the indemnifying party; and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and any indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided that any Person entitled to indemnification under this Article VIII shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim at the expense of such indemnified person, unless (x) the indemnifying party has agreed to pay such fees or expenses or (y) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Person.

-32-

expenses of more than one (1) counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party, a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim, in which event the indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of such additional counsel or counsels.

(a)    Limited Transferability of Notes. No Holder may offer, sell or otherwise transfer any Notes except to an Affiliate of such Holder or pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and, in each case, any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States and any other applicable jurisdiction and subject to the approval of the Company.

-33-

(b)    Note Purchase Agreement Legend. Each Note (and all Notes issued in exchange therefor or substitution therefor) shall bear the legend in substantially the following form:

“THE NOTE REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND HAS BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO SUCH SALE OR DISTRIBUTION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN A FORM REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO U.S. WELL SERVICES, INC. THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.

THE NOTES ARE SUBJECT IN ALL RESPECTS TO THE RESTRICTIONS IN THE NOTE PURCHASE AGREEMENT.”

(c)    Common Stock Legend. Until such time as the Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Equity Linked Notes has been registered pursuant to the provisions of the Securities Act, or the Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Equity Linked Notes is eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, the Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Equity Linked Notes will bear the following restrictive legend:

“THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF A REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SUCH ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION THEREUNDER AND, IN THE CASE OF A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION, UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER SUCH ACT OR THE ISSUER HAS RECEIVED DOCUMENTATION REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO IT THAT SUCH TRANSACTION DOES NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT.”

(d)    General Provisions Relating to Transfer and Exchange.

(i)    No service charge shall be made to the Holder for registration of the transfer or exchange of any Note, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar Governmental Authority charge payable in connection therewith.

(ii)    All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange in Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement, as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Holder of a Note shall be entitled to receive confidential information of the Company and its Subsidiaries prior to the entry by such Holder and the Company into a mutually agreeable confidentiality agreement with respect to such confidential information.

(iii)    Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Note, the Company may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Notes and for all other purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by notice to the contrary.

-34-

(iv)    All certifications, certificates and opinions of counsel required to be submitted to the Company pursuant to this Section 9.2 to effectuate a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by electronic transmission.

Section 9.3    Replacement of Notes. If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Company, and the Company receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Company shall issue a replacement Note. If required by the Company, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Company to protect the Company and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Company and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Agreement equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder. The provisions of this Section 9.3 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

In furtherance of the foregoing, each of the Holders hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Notes Agent to act as collateral agent of (and, in such capacity, to hold any security interest created by the Security Documents for and on behalf of or in trust for) such Holder for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Company or any Guarantor to secure any of the Note Obligations, and to take all other actions, exercise all powers and perform such duties as are delegated to the Notes Agent under the Security Documents, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Notes Agent (and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Notes Agent pursuant to Section 10.7 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof), or for exercising any rights and remedies with respect thereto), shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article X (including Section 10.7, as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the ”Notes Agent” under the Transaction Documents).

Any such Person serving as Notes Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Company or any Guarantor or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not Notes Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Holders. The Holders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Note Agent or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Company or a Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Company, such Guarantor or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Notes Agent shall not be under any obligation to provide such information to them.

Section 10.3    Exculpatory Provisions. The Notes Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and in the other Transaction Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Notes Agent:

(a)    shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Transaction Documents with reference to Notes Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law and instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties;

(b)    shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Transaction Documents that the Notes Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Requisite Holders (or such other number or percentage of Holders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Transaction Documents), provided that the Notes Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Notes Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Transaction Document or applicable Law; and

-36-

(c)    shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Transaction Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Company, any Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by any Person serving as Notes Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

Neither Notes Agent nor any of its Agent-Related Persons shall be liable for any action taken or not taken (including (i) the making of (or omitting to make) any determination, calculations, selection, request, appointment, instruction, direction, election or providing any approval or consent to enter into any amendments, modifications or supplements or otherwise in connection with any provisions of the Transaction Documents, (ii) the sending (or failure to send) any notice or the revocation (or failure to revoke) any notice, (iii) the exercise (or failure to exercise) of voting rights or powers, (iv) the filing or recording of any agreement, document or instrument (or the failure to file or records any agreement, document or instrument), (v) the exercise of any rights and remedies (and all actions incidental or related thereto), (vi) releasing, subordinating, and/or terminating any Lien or (vii) exercising any powers as the attorney-in-fact for the Company or any Guarantor) by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Requisite Holders (or such other number or percentage of the Holders as shall be necessary, or as the Notes Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by the final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction (provided, that no action taken or not taken in accordance with clause (i) of this sentence, shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct), in each case, in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein. The Notes Agent not shall be deemed to have knowledge of any default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such default or Event of Default is given to the Notes Agent by the Company or a Holder and expressly stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Notes Agent receives such a notice, the Notes Agent shall give notice thereof to the Holders. The Notes Agent shall take such action with respect to such default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Requisite Holders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Holders or such number or percentage of the Holders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided for herein or in the other Transaction Documents); provided that unless and until the Notes Agent shall have received such direction, the Notes Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such default or Event of Default, in its sole discretion.

Neither Notes Agent nor Agent-Related Person shall be liable or responsible for, or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into, (i) any recital, statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report, instrument, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or delivered to the Notes Agent or Holders hereunder or pursuant to the Transaction Documents or in connection herewith or in connection with the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated herein or therein, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements, obligations, provisions or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any default or Event of Default, (iv) the value, validity, enforceability, effectiveness, execution, collectability, sufficiency or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other agreement, certificate, instrument or document, or the creation, attachment, perfection and/or priority of any Lien created or purported to be created in

-37-

the Collateral by the Security Documents and/or the filing of financing statements, continuation and/or amendment of any financing statements filed to perfect the Liens in the applicable Collateral (other than to the extent expressly directed by the Requisite Holders in writing), (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral, (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article VII or elsewhere herein or in any other Transaction Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Notes Agent, (vii) the inspection of the properties, books or records of the Company or any Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates, (viii) the financial condition or business affairs of the Company, any Guarantor or any other Person liable for the payment of any Notes Obligations (ix) the use of the proceeds of the Notes, or (x) to make any disclosures with respect to the foregoing or otherwise relating to the Company or any Guarantor unless expressly required herein. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Notes Agent shall not have any liability arising from confirmations of the amount of outstanding of Notes or the component amounts thereof. Additionally, the Notes Agent shall not (i) be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to inquire into, monitor or enforce compliance with Article IX of this Agreement. or (ii) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or of any Note, or disclosure of confidential information to an assignee of a Note.

The duties of the Notes Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature; the Notes Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Holder; and nothing in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon the Notes Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document except as expressly set forth herein or therein. Each Holder acknowledges, agrees and accepts the terms and conditions of each Transaction Document, including, without limitation, the Security Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement, and authorizes and instructs the Notes Agent to execute and perform its obligations hereunder and under each other Transaction Document.

Section 10.4    Lack of Reliance on the Notes Agent. Each Holder expressly acknowledges that neither the Notes Agent nor any Agent-Related Person have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Notes Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Company or any Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates of such Person, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by Notes Agent to any Holder. Independently and without reliance upon the Notes Agent, each Holder, to the extent it deems appropriate, has made and shall continue to make (i) its own independent investigation of the financial condition, affairs, business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Company and the Guarantors in connection with the purchase of the Notes and the taking or not taking of any action in connection herewith and (ii) its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Company and the Guarantors, based on such documents and information as such Holder has deemed appropriate, and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the Notes Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Holder with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the purchase of the Notes or at any time or times thereafter. The Notes Agent shall not be (i) responsible to any Holder for (A) any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties herein or in any other Transaction Document or other document, certificate, requests, instruments, statement or other writing delivered in connection herewith, with the Transaction Documents or the transactions

-38-

contemplated herein or referenced or provided for herein or in the other Transaction Documents, (B) the execution, effectiveness, value, genuineness, validity, enforceability, perfection, collectability, priority or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or the financial condition of the Company or any of the Guarantors or (C) the attachment, creation and/or perfection of the Liens granted or purported to be granted in the Collateral pursuant to the Security Documents, the filing of financing statements or the continuation and/or amendment of any financing statements filed to perfect the Liens in the applicable Collateral (other than to the extent expressly directed by the Requisite Holders) or (ii) required to make (or otherwise be responsible to the Holders for making) any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or the financial condition of the Company or any Guarantor, or the existence or possible existence of any default or Event of Default . Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Holders by the Notes Agent hereunder, the Notes Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Holder with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any the Company, any Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates that may come into the possession of the Notes Agent or any Agent-Related Person.

Section 10.5    Certain Rights of the Notes Agent. The Notes Agent may request instructions from the Requisite Holders (or such greater percentage of Holders required) prior to taking any action or entering into any amendments, modifications or supplements, making any determination (including as to whether any agreement, document or instrument is in form and substance satisfactory to Notes Agent), making any calculation (which shall be computed by the Requisite Holders), sending any notice, revoking any notice, making a selection, request, election or appointment (including failing to make a selection, request, election or appointment), exercising any voting rights or powers (including failing to exercise any voting rights or powers), exercising any rights and remedies (and all actions incidental or related thereto), releasing, subordinating and/or terminating any Lien, exercising any powers as the attorney-in-fact for the Company or any Guarantor, providing any consent, approval, instruction or direction (including failing to provide any consent, approval, instruction or direction) or making (or failing to make) any filing or recording in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents and may refrain (and shall incur no liability from so refraining) from taking or omitting to take any act or making any such determination, calculation, selection, request, exercising such voting rights or powers or providing such notice, approval or consent or entering into any amendments, modifications or supplements until it receives such instruction (or calculation, as applicable) from the Requisite Holders (or such number or percentage of the Holders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided for herein or in the other Transaction Documents) and such additional indemnity from the Holders, in each case, as it deems reasonably appropriate (and until such instructions and indemnity, as applicable, are received, the Notes Agent shall act, or refrain from acting, as it deems advisable in its sole discretion) and the Notes Agent shall not incur liability to any Holder, the Company or any Guarantor by reason of so refraining. Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, in no event shall the Notes Agent be required to enter into any extension or amendment to any Transaction Document without receiving direction from the requisite percentage of the applicable Holders. The Notes Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in

-39-

refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the request of the Requisite Holders (or such number or percentage of the Holders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided for herein or in the other Transaction Documents), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Holders and all future holders of the Notes. Without limiting the foregoing, no Holder shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Notes Agent as a result of the Notes Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any other Transaction Document in accordance with the instructions of the Requisite Holders (or such greater percentage of Holders required). Notwithstanding any other provisions set forth in this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents, the Notes Agent shall not be required to take any action that is in its opinion contrary to applicable Law (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Bankruptcy Law (or similar laws)) or the terms of any of the Transaction Documents that would in its reasonable opinion subject it or any of its officers, employees or directors to personal liability. Each Holder, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement or the applicable transfer document in connection with the assignment of a Note and/or the purchase of the Notes, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Transaction Document and each other document required to be approved by the Notes Agent, Requisite Holders or Holders, as applicable, on the applicable Closing Date or as of the date of the purchase of such Note.

Section 10.6    Reliance by the Notes Agent. The Notes Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully protected in relying upon (and shall not be liable for so relying upon), any communication, request, instrument, note, consent, affidavit, letter, writing, resolution, notice, statement, certificate, e-mail or other electronic message, order, internet or intranet website posting, or other document (or writing), conversation or telephone message signed, sent or made (or authenticated) by (or, in the case of a conversation, with) any Person that the Notes Agent believed to be the proper Person, and, with respect to all legal matters (including all duties and obligations of Notes Agent hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents) pertaining to this Agreement and any other Transaction Document and its duties hereunder and thereunder, upon advice of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts and professional advisors selected by the Notes Agent. The Notes Agent may deem and treat the Holder of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation, transfer thereof shall have been delivered with the Notes Agent. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the purchase of a Note by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Holder, the Notes Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Holder, unless the Notes Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Holder prior to the purchase of such Note. The Notes Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Company), independent accountants and other experts or professional advisors selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants, professional advisors or experts.

Section 10.7    Delegation of Duties. The Notes Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Transaction Documents by or through any one or more of its agents, sub agents and/or attorneys in fact appointed by the Notes Agent. The Notes Agent and any such agent, sub agent or attorney in fact may perform

-40-

any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers as are delegated to the Notes Agent, as applicable, together with such rights and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, by or through their respective Agent-Related Persons. The exculpatory and indemnification provisions of this Article shall apply to any such agent, sub agent or attorney in fact and to the Agent-Related Persons of the Notes Agent and any such agent, attorney in fact or sub agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Notes Agent. The Notes Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents, sub agents, attorney in fact or any of their respective Agent-Related Persons selected by it with reasonable care.

Section 10.8    Costs and Expenses; Indemnification.

(a)    The Company agrees to pay or reimburse the Notes Agent for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Notes Agent (promptly following a written demand therefor, together with backup documentation supporting such reimbursement request) incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and any amendment, waiver, consent, forbearance, modification or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of the provisions hereof and thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated thereby are consummated), and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including all reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses and, if necessary, a single local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction, and (b) upon presentation of a summary statement, together with any supporting documentation reasonably requested by the Company, to pay or reimburse the Notes Agent, promptly following a written demand therefor for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement of any rights or remedies under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents (including all such costs and expenses incurred during any legal proceeding, including any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law or other similar law, and including all reasonable and documented fees, costs and expenses of one counsel to the Notes Agent and one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction. The agreements in this Section 10.8(a) shall survive the repayment of all Note Obligations.

(b)    The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Notes Agent its Agent-Related Persons (collectively, the “Agent Indemnitees”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, costs or expenses of whatsoever kind or nature (including attorney costs) to which any such Agent Indemnitee may become subject arising out of, resulting from or in connection with (but limited, in the case of legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of one counsel to all Agent Indemnitees taken as a whole and, if reasonably necessary, a single local counsel for all Agent Indemnitees taken as a whole in each relevant jurisdiction, and solely in the case of a conflict of interest, one additional counsel in each relevant jurisdiction to each group of affected Agent Indemnitees similarly situated taken as a whole) any (i) actual or threatened claim, litigation, investigation, proceeding or liabilities relating to the transactions contemplated hereby or under the other Transaction Documents or (ii) to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration (including the negotiation, execution, and delivery of any waivers, forbearances, amendments, supplements or modifications thereto) of this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, in connection with

-41-

the transactions contemplated hereunder or thereunder, the Notes or the use, or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory (including any investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding), and regardless of whether any Agent Indemnitee is a party thereto (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Agent Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses resulted from (x) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Indemnitee as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (y) any dispute solely among Agent Indemnitees other than any claims against an Agent Indemnitee in its capacity or in fulfilling its role as an agent or any similar role under any Transaction Document and other than any claims arising out of any act or omission of the Company or any of its Affiliates (as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). To the extent that the undertakings to indemnify and hold harmless set forth in this Section 10.8 may be unenforceable in whole or in part because they are violative of any applicable law or public policy, the Company shall contribute the maximum portion that they are permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the Agent Indemnitees or any of them. No Agent Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of any information or other materials obtained through IntraLinks or other similar information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (except to the extent such damages are found in a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Agent Indemnitee), nor shall any Agent Indemnitee, the Company or any Guarantor have any liability for any special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages relating to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or arising out of its activities in connection herewith or therewith (whether before or after a Closing Date) (other than, in the case of the Company or any Guarantor, in respect of any such damages incurred or paid by an Agent Indemnitee to a third party for which such Agent Indemnitee is otherwise entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 10.8). In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 10.8 applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Company or any Guarantor, their respective directors, stockholders or creditors or an Agent Indemnitee or any other Person, whether or not any Agent Indemnitee is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not any of the transactions contemplated hereunder or under any of the other Transaction Documents is consummated.

(c)    To the extent the Agent Indemnitee is not reimbursed and indemnified by the Company, the Holders will reimburse and indemnify the Notes Agent or any other Agent-Related Person (in proportion to their respective “percentage” as used in determining the Requisite Holders for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements of whatsoever kind or nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred at any time by the Notes Agent or any other Agent-Related Person in performing its duties hereunder or under any other Transaction Document or in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (including, without limitation, any indemnification provided by the Notes Agent under any Transaction Document); provided that no Holder shall be liable to an Agent Indemnitee for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims,

-42-

actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Agent Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision). In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Liabilities, this Section 10.8 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Holder or any other Person. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Holder shall reimburse the Notes Agent, as applicable, upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses) incurred by the Notes Agent, as applicable, in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment, forbearance or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Transaction Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein or in any Transaction Document, or in connection with any transaction contemplated hereunder, or in connection with any action taken or omitted to be taken by Notes Agent or Agent-Related Person, as applicable, under or in connection with any of the foregoing including without limitation, exercising any of the Notes Agent’s powers, rights, and remedies and performing its duties hereunder and thereunder (or omitting to do the same), in each case, to the extent that the Notes Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Company, provided that such reimbursement by the Holders shall not affect the Company’s continuing reimbursement obligations with respect thereto, provided further that the failure of any Holder to indemnify or reimburse the Notes Agent shall not relieve any other Holder of its obligation in respect thereof.    If any indemnity furnished to the Notes Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of the Notes Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, the Notes Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished.

(d)    All amounts due under Section 10.8 shall be paid within twenty (20) Business Days after written demand therefor. The agreements in this Section 10.8 shall survive the resignation of the Notes Agent, the replacement of any Holder, and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Note Obligations.

Section 10.9    Resignation by the Notes Agent. The Notes Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents at any time by giving 30 Business Days’ prior written notice to the Holders and the Company. If the Notes Agent is in material breach of its obligations hereunder as Notes Agent, then the Notes Agent may be removed as the Notes Agent at the reasonable request of the Requisite Holders.

Upon any such notice of resignation by, or notice of removal of, the Notes Agent, the Requisite Holders shall appoint a successor Notes Agent hereunder or thereunder who shall be a commercial bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company, which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (provided that the Company’s approval shall not be required if an Event of Default under Section 6.1(f) has occurred and is continuing).

If a successor Notes Agent shall not have been so appointed within such 30 Business Day period, the Notes Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) appoint a successor Notes Agent who shall serve as Notes Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Requisite Holders appoint a successor Notes Agent as provided above.

-43-

If no successor Notes Agent has been appointed pursuant to the foregoing by the 30th Business Day after the date such notice of resignation was given by the Notes Agent or such notice of removal was given by the Requisite Holders or the Company, as applicable, the Notes Agent’s resignation or removal shall nonetheless become effective and the Requisite Holders shall thereafter perform all the duties of the Notes Agent hereunder or under any other Transaction Document until such time, if any, as the Requisite Holders appoint a successor Notes Agent as provided above. Upon the end of such 30 Business Day period, the retiring Notes Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents.

Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Notes Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired or removed) Notes Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Notes Agent prior to the effectiveness of such removal or resignation), the term “Notes Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the retiring (or retired or removed) Notes Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section 10.9) without any other or future act or deed on the part of such former Notes Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any Holders.

The fees payable by the Company to a successor Notes Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such successor. After the resignation or removal of the Notes Agent hereunder, the provisions of this Article X and Section 10.8 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such Notes Agent, its sub-agents and its Agent-Related Persons in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while Notes Agent was acting as Notes Agent.

Upon a resignation or removal of the Notes Agent pursuant to this Section 10.9, the Notes Agent (i) shall continue to be subject to any confidentiality provisions of the Transaction Documents and (ii) shall remain indemnified to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the provisions of this Article X (and the analogous provisions of the other Transaction Documents) shall continue in effect for the benefit of the Notes Agent for all of its actions and inactions while serving as the Notes Agent.

Section 10.10    Collateral Matters. Each of the Holders hereby irrevocably authorize and instruct the Notes Agent to take the actions to be taken by them as set forth in the Security Documents.

Each Holder hereby agrees, that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Requisite Holders (or such greater percentage of Holders required) (or the Note Agent, at the direction of the Requisite Holders (or such greater percentage of Holders required)) in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Security Documents, and the exercise by the Requisite Holders (or such greater percentage of Holders required) (or the Note Agent, at the direction of the Requisite Holders (or such greater percentage of Holders required)) of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental

-44-

thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Holders. The Notes Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of all of the Holders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Holder, from time to time prior to an Event of Default, (but shall have no obligation to do so prior to receiving written direction from the Requisite Holders) to take any action with respect to any Collateral or Security Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the security interest in and liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Security Documents.

Upon request by the Notes Agent at any time, the Holders will confirm in writing the Notes Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 10.10. In each case as specified in and subject to the provisions of this Section 10.10, the Notes Agent will (and each Holder irrevocably authorizes the Notes Agent to), at the Company’s expense, execute and deliver to the Company or any Guarantor, as applicable, such documents as such Person may reasonably request to evidence the release or subordination of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Security Documents, or to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Security Agreement, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents and this Section 10.10.

The Notes Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the Holders or to any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Company or any Guarantor or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to the Notes Agent pursuant to any Security Document have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Notes Agent in this Section 10.10, or in any of the Security Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, the Notes Agent shall have no duty unless and until expressly directed by Requisite Holders. The Notes Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Notes Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by the Company or any Guarantor in connection therewith, nor shall the Notes Agent be responsible or liable to the Holders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral, Liens therein or financing statements filed in connection therewith.

Anything contained in any of the Transaction Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company and the Notes Agent hereby agree that (i) no Person (other than the Notes Agent) shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Security Agreement or the guaranty contained there, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under any of the Transaction Documents may be exercised solely by the Notes Agent, as applicable, for the benefit of itself and the Holders in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof, and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure or similar enforcement action by the Notes Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) or other similar law), the Notes Agent (or any Holder, except with respect to a “credit bid” pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of the Bankruptcy Code), may be the purchaser or licensor of any

-45-

or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and the Notes Agent, as agent for and representative of Holders (but not any Holder in its individual capacities) shall be entitled, upon instructions from Requisite Holders, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale or disposition, to use and apply any of the Note Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Notes Agent at such sale or other disposition.

Section 10.11    Intercreditor Agreements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document: (a) the Liens granted to the Notes Agent in favor of itself and the Holders pursuant to the Transaction Documents and the exercise of any right related to any Collateral shall be subject, in each case, to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, (b) in the event of any conflict between the express terms and provisions of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, on the one hand, and of the Intercreditor Agreement, on the other hand, the terms and provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement shall control, and (c) each Holder hereunder authorizes and instructs the Notes Agent to execute and perform its obligations under the Intercreditor Agreement (and any amendments, restatements, supplements or other modifications thereto approved in accordance with the terms thereof) on behalf of such Holder, and such Holder agrees to be bound by the terms thereof.

CONVERTIBLE SENIOR SECURED (THIRD LIEN) PIK NOTE

1.    Principal Amount. For value received, U.S. WELL SERVICES, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Maker”), promises to pay to the order of [                    ] (the “Payee”), the principal amount of [                    ] Dollars ($[        ]) and interest on the outstanding principal amount of this Convertible Senior Secured (Third Lien) PIK Note (this “Note”) in accordance with the terms of this Note. Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Agreement referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

2.    Interest. Interest shall begin to accrue on the unpaid principal balance of this Note, if any, commencing on the date hereof and continuing until repayment of this Note in full at the rate of sixteen percent (16%) per annum calculated on the basis of a 360 day year and actual days elapsed. Accrued and unpaid interest shall be calculated on this Note on the last day of each March, June, September and December, commencing September 30, 2021, and shall be added on such date to the unpaid principal balance of this Note (rounded up to the nearest $1.00) (the “PIK Interest”). PIK Interest, upon being added to the unpaid principal balance of this Note, shall no longer be deemed to be accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding principal amount. References herein and in the Agreement to the “principal amount” of the Notes includes any increases in the principal amount of the outstanding Notes as a result of the PIK Interest. Accrued and unpaid interest on this Note shall also be due and payable on the Maturity Date under the terms set forth in Section 3.

3.    Maturity Date. Subject to the conversion of this Note pursuant to Section 6, the entire outstanding and unpaid principal balance of this Note, plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable on June 5, 2026 (the “Maturity Date”) in a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the amount of such outstanding principal and unpaid interest through the date immediately prior to the Maturity Date, by (b) either (i) the volume-weighted average trading price of the Class A Common Stock reported by the principal national securities exchange on which the Class A Common Stock is then listed for trading for the twenty (20) trading day period (including the last day of such period) immediately preceding the Maturity Date (“Twenty-Day VWAP”) or (ii) if the Maturity Date occurs during any period in which the Class A Common Stock is not listed on any national securities exchange (such time, a “Delisted Period”), then the Fair Market Value of a share Class A Common Stock as of May 1, 2026; provided, however, that if any Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(e), (f) or (g) under the Agreement occurs and is continuing on the Maturity Date, then payment shall be made in cash. For the purposes hereof, “Fair Market Value” means the fair market value of a share of the Class A Common Stock as determined in good faith by the Board. Notwithstanding the above, in the event the Board is obligated to made a determination of Fair Market Value under the terms of this Section 3 or Section 6(c), the Maker shall provide notice of the Board’s determination (together with reasonably supporting documentation as to such determination) as to Fair Market Value to the Payee at least fifteen (15) Business Days in advance of the Maturity Date or Change of Control, as applicable (a “FMV Determination Notice”), and, if the Requisite Holders of the Equity Linked Notes provide a written notice disputing the Board’s Fair Market Value determination (a “Dispute Notice”) within five (5) Business Days following delivery of a FMV Determination Notice, the Board and a Holder designated as the representative of the outstanding Equity Linked Notes, as selected by the Requisite Holders of the Equity Linked Notes (the “Note Holders’ Representative”) shall attempt to agree on the Fair Market Value in good faith; provided, however, that if the Board and the Note Holders’ Representative are unable to agree upon the Fair Market Value within five (5) Business Days after delivery of a Dispute Notice, the Board and the Note Holders’ Representative shall submit the dispute to an internationally recognized independent investment bank or valuation firm selected by the Note Holders’ Representative from three such investment banks or valuation firms proposed by the Maker (the “Independent Appraiser”). The

Independent Appraiser’s determination as to the Fair Market Value shall be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes. The Holders shall bear one hundred percent (100%) of the fees and expenses of the Independent Appraiser through a reduction in the outstanding principal balance and unpaid interest on the Equity Linked Notes allocated in accordance to such amounts owed per Equity Linked Note; provided, however, that if the appraised Fair Market Value as determined by the Independent Appraiser exceeds one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Fair Market Value determined by the Board, the Maker shall pay one hundred percent (100%) of the fees and expenses of the Independent Appraiser. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event payment of this Note is in shares of Class A Common Stock, Maker shall deliver such shares no later than ten (10) Business Days following the final determination of the number of such shares to be delivered.

4.    No Prepayment or Redemption. Maker may not redeem or prepay all or any portion of this Note.

5.    Note Purchase Agreement. Maker issued this Note and each of the other Convertible Senior Secured (Third Lien) PIK Notes under a Note Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) dated as of June 24, 2021 (the “Agreement Date”), among Maker, the Payee and the other Holders, and Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, as collateral agent (the “Notes Agent”). The terms of this Note and the other Convertible Senior Secured (Third Lien) PIK Notes include those stated in the Agreement. This Note and the other Convertible Senior Secured (Third Lien) PIK Note are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Agreement for a statement of such terms.

6.    Conversion.

(a)    Optional Conversion. At any time prior to the payment in full of all outstanding principal and interest owing under this Note, the Payee may elect to convert all or a portion of such outstanding principal and interest into a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the amount of such outstanding aggregate principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest through the date immediately prior to the date of conversion, by (ii) the Conversion Price. The Payee may exercise this right by delivering written notice of such conversion to the Maker in the form attached as Annex A (the “Conversion Notice”) and tendering this Note to the Maker. Such conversion shall be completed on a date specified in the Conversion Notice, which shall be not less than 10 and not more than 20 Business Days following the date of the Conversion Notice, and at such closing, the Maker shall issue to the Payee the number of shares of Class A Common Stock set forth in the notice of conversion, as well as a replacement note representing the unconverted principal amount of any notes tendered, such replacement note to have the same terms and conditions as this Note. “Conversion Price” shall initially be $[        ]¹, which may be adjusted from time to time as set forth herein.

(b)    Mandatory Conversion. Following the first anniversary of the date of the Agreement, and at any time in which there are no issued and outstanding shares of Series A

Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred Stock, if the Twenty-Day VWAP is greater than $2.00 for ten (10) trading days during any twenty (20) consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Maker provides the Maker Conversion Notice as set forth below, then the Maker shall have the option from time to time, exercisable by delivery of written notice to the Payee substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex B (the “Maker Conversion Notice”), to convert all or a portion of the outstanding principal and interest then owing under this Note into a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the amount of such outstanding principal and interest owing through the date immediately prior to the date of conversion, by (B) the Conversion Price on a date specified in the Maker Conversion Notice that is no later than the second Business Day following such Maker Conversion Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6(b) shall have no force and effect during any period in which the Class A Common Stock is not listed on any national securities exchange.

(c)    Change of Control Forced Conversion. In the event of a Change of Control, subject to the Payee’s right to convert this Note into Class A Common Stock pursuant to Section 6(a), the Maker shall have the option, exercisable by delivery of written notice to the Payee substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex C (the “CoC Conversion Notice”) at least fifteen (15) Business Day prior to such Change of Control, to either (i) in full satisfaction hereof pay to the Payee in cash the amount of the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on this Note through the date immediately prior to the date of such Change of Control or (ii) convert no later than the tenth Business Day following such Change of Control all of the outstanding principal and interest then owing under this Note into a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the amount of such outstanding principal and interest through the date immediately prior to the Change of Control, by (B) either (1) the Twenty-Day VWAP for the twenty (20) trading day period (including the last day of such period) immediately preceding such Change of Control or (2) if the Change of Control occurs during any Delisted Period, then the Fair Market Value of the Class A Common Stock as of the date of the CoC Conversion Notice. For the Purposes hereof, (a) a “Change of Control” means (i) the consummation of any transaction by the Maker the result of which is that any person, other than any Permitted Holder (as defined below), becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting stock of the Maker, measured by voting power rather than number of shares, units or the like; provided that a transaction in which the Maker becomes a subsidiary of another person shall not constitute a Change of Control if, immediately following such transaction, the persons who were beneficial owners of the voting stock of the Maker immediately prior to such transaction beneficially own, directly or indirectly, fifty percent (50%) or more of the total voting power of the voting stock of such other person of whom the Maker has become a subsidiary or (ii) the sale of all or substantially all of the Maker’s assets; and (b) the “Permitted Holder” means any original holder of Convertible Senior Secured (Third Lien) PIK Notes and its affiliates.

(d)    Adjustments to Conversion Price. If, after the date hereof, the Maker (i) makes a distribution on its Class A Common Stock in cash, securities (including Class A Common Stock) or other property or assets, (ii) subdivides or splits its outstanding Class A Common Stock into a greater number of Class A Common Stock, (iii) combines or reclassifies its Class A Common Stock into a smaller number of Class A Common Stock or (iv) issues by reclassification of its Class A Common Stock any securities (including any reclassification in

connection with a merger, consolidation or business combination in which the Maker is the surviving person or another constituent corporation is issuing equity securities in exchange for Class A Common Stock), then the Conversion Price in effect at the time of the record date for such distribution or of the effective date of such subdivision, split, combination, or reclassification shall be proportionately adjusted so that the conversion of the Note after such time shall entitle the Payee to receive the aggregate number of Class A Common Stock (or shares of any securities into which such shares of Class A Common Stock would have been combined, consolidated, merged, reclassified or exchanged pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) above) that Payee would have been entitled to receive if the Note had been converted into shares of Class A Common Stock immediately prior to such record date or effective date, as the case may be. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 6(f) shall become effective immediately after the record date in the case of a distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination, reclassification (including any reclassification in connection with a merger, consolidation or business combination in which the Corporation is the surviving person or a constituent corporation) or split. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event described above shall occur.

(e)    Termination of Rights. Upon the issuance of shares of Class A Common Stock upon the conversion of any outstanding principal and interest owing under this Note, all rights of the Payee with respect to such principal and interest shall terminate.

7.    Share Limitations. Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in Section 3, Section 6 or anywhere else in this Note, (i) no shares of Class A Common Stock will be issued under this Note unless and until the Company shall have submitted a Listing of Additional Shares to the NASDAQ covering all the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable pursuant to this Note (the “Listing Application”) and NASDAQ shall have completed its review of, and approved, such listing application, (ii) no shares of Class A Common Stock will be issued under this Note to the extent such issuance would constitute a “change of control” under the Nasdaq’s listing rules (the “Change of Control Limitation”) or would be in excess of the number of shares of Class A Common Stock authorized and available for issuance under the Company’s charter (the “Charter Limitation”), and (iii) the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock that may be issued under the Equity Linked Notes at a price per share which is less than the Conversion Price, when combined with any other shares of Class A Common Stock which may be aggregated with such issuances under applicable NASDAQ rules for this purpose, will not exceed the number permitted under such applicable NASDAQ rules (the “Exchange Cap”), unless stockholder approval is obtained in order to comply with, satisfy or remove, as applicable, the Change of Control Limitation, the Charter Limitation, or the Exchange Cap, as applicable. The Exchange Cap will not apply to any issuance of shares of Class A Common Stock under this Note if the number of shares to be issued is calculated based on a value per share of Class A Common Stock that is equal to or greater than the Conversion Price. In the event that the Company is unable to issue shares of Class A Common Stock as a result of the NASDAQ not approving the Listing Application, the Change of Control Limitation, a Charter Limitation or the Exchange Cap, the Company will instead settle the conversion or payment due at Maturity in cash (but only to the extent necessary to not trigger a Change of Control Limitation, a Charter Limitation or the Exchange Cap, as applicable). To the extent shares of Class A Common Stock are to be issued pursuant to this Note and other Equity Linked Notes simultaneously and the Company is unable to issue shares of Class A Common Stock as a result of the Change of

Control Limitation, a Charter Limitation or the Exchange Cap and must instead settle the conversion or payment partially in cash, the allocation of Class A Common Stock and cash to be issued or paid shall be pro rata among the Payee and the holders of such other Equity Linked Notes.

8.    Collateral. The Note Obligations are secured by that certain collateral as set forth in that certain Guarantee and Third Lien Collateral Agreement dated June 24, 2021, by and among Maker and the subsidiaries of Maker party thereto, as grantors, and Notes Agent (as amended, restated or supplemented from time to time, the “Third Lien Security Agreement”). The Payee has agreed to and accepted the terms and conditions of the Third Lien Security Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement and the performance by the Notes Agent of its respective obligations and the exercise of their respective rights thereunder and in connection therewith.

9.    Guarantees. The Note Obligations are guaranteed by U.S. Well Services, LLC, USWS Holdings LLC, USWS Fleet 10, LLC, USWS Fleet 11, LLC and by each of future wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Maker, under the terms of the Third Lien Security Agreement.

10.    Defaults and Remedies. The Agreement defines certain Events of Default. The Note Obligations may be accelerated following an Event of Default in the manner provided in the Agreement.

11.    Waiver of Notice. The Maker hereby waives demand for payment, presentment for payment, protest, notice of payment, notice of dishonor, notice of nonpayment, notice of acceleration of maturity and diligence in taking any action to collect sums owing hereunder.

12.    Officers and Directors Not Liable. In no event will any officer or director of the Maker be liable for any amounts due and payable pursuant to this Note.

13.    Applicable Law. THIS NOTE WILL BE GOVERNED BY AND INTERPRETED AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF THE LAW OF ANY OTHER STATE.

U.S. WELL SERVICES, INC.

CONVERTIBLE SENIOR SECURED (THIRD LIEN) PIK NOTE

1.    Principal Amount. For value received, U.S. WELL SERVICES, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Maker”), promises to pay to the order of [                    ] (the “Payee”), the principal amount of [                    ] Dollars ($[        ]) and interest on the outstanding principal amount of this Convertible Senior Secured (Third Lien) PIK Note (this “Note”) in accordance with the terms of this Note. Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Agreement referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

2.    Interest. Interest shall begin to accrue on the unpaid principal balance of this Note, if any, commencing on the date hereof and continuing until repayment of this Note in full at the rate of sixteen percent (16%) per annum calculated on the basis of a 360 day year and actual days elapsed. Accrued and unpaid interest shall be calculated on this Note on the last day of each March, June, September and December, commencing September 30, 2021, and shall be added on such date to the unpaid principal balance of this Note (rounded up to the nearest $1.00) (the “PIK Interest”). PIK Interest, upon being added to the unpaid principal balance of this Note, shall no longer be deemed to be accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding principal amount. References herein and in the Agreement to the “principal amount” of the Notes includes any increases in the principal amount of the outstanding Notes as a result of the PIK Interest. Accrued and unpaid interest on this Note shall also be due and payable on the Maturity Date under the terms set forth in Section 3.

3.    Maturity Date. Subject to the conversion of this Note pursuant to Section 6, the entire outstanding and unpaid principal balance of this Note, plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable on June 5, 2026 (the “Maturity Date”) in a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the amount of such outstanding principal and unpaid interest through the date immediately prior to the Maturity Date, by (b) either (i) the volume-weighted average trading price of the Class A Common Stock reported by the principal national securities exchange on which the Class A Common Stock is then listed for trading for the twenty (20) trading day period (including the last day of such period) immediately preceding the Maturity Date (“Twenty-Day VWAP”) or (ii) if the Maturity Date occurs during any period in which the Class A Common Stock is not listed on any national securities exchange (such time, a “Delisted Period”), then the Fair Market Value of a share Class A Common Stock as of May 1, 2026; provided, however, that if any Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(e), (f) or (g) under the Agreement occurs and is continuing on the Maturity Date, then payment shall be made in cash. For the purposes hereof, “Fair Market Value” means the fair market value of a share of the Class A Common Stock as determined in good faith by the Board. Notwithstanding the above, in the event the Board is obligated to made a determination of Fair Market Value under the terms of this Section 3 or Section 6(c), the Maker shall provide notice of the Board’s determination (together with reasonably supporting documentation as to such determination) as to Fair Market Value to the Payee at least fifteen (15) Business Days in advance of the Maturity Date or Change of Control, as applicable (a “FMV Determination Notice”), and, if the Requisite Holders of the Equity Linked Notes provide a written notice disputing the Board’s Fair Market Value determination (a “Dispute Notice”) within five (5) Business Days following delivery of a FMV Determination Notice, the Board and a Holder designated as the representative of the outstanding Equity Linked Notes, as selected by the Requisite Holders of the Equity Linked Notes (the “Note Holders’ Representative”) shall attempt to agree on the Fair Market Value in good faith; provided, however, that if the Board and the Note Holders’ Representative are unable to agree upon the Fair Market Value within five (5) Business Days after delivery of a Dispute Notice, the Board and the Note Holders’ Representative shall submit the dispute to an internationally recognized independent investment bank or valuation firm selected by the Note Holders’ Representative from three such investment banks or valuation firms proposed by the Maker (the “Independent Appraiser”). The

Independent Appraiser’s determination as to the Fair Market Value shall be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes. The Holders shall bear one hundred percent (100%) of the fees and expenses of the Independent Appraiser through a reduction in the outstanding principal balance and unpaid interest on the Equity Linked Notes allocated in accordance to such amounts owed per Equity Linked Note; provided, however, that if the appraised Fair Market Value as determined by the Independent Appraiser exceeds one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Fair Market Value determined by the Board, the Maker shall pay one hundred percent (100%) of the fees and expenses of the Independent Appraiser. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event payment of this Note is in shares of Class A Common Stock, Maker shall deliver such shares no later than ten (10) Business Days following the final determination of the number of such shares to be delivered.

4.    No Prepayment or Redemption. Maker may not redeem or prepay all or any portion of this Note.

5.    Note Purchase Agreement. Maker issued this Note and each of the other Convertible Senior Secured (Third Lien) PIK Notes under a Note Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) dated as of June 24, 2021 (the “Agreement Date”), among Maker, the Payee and the other Holders, and Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, as collateral agent (the “Notes Agent”). The terms of this Note and the other Convertible Senior Secured (Third Lien) PIK Notes include those stated in the Agreement. This Note and the other Convertible Senior Secured (Third Lien) PIK Note are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Agreement for a statement of such terms.

6.    Conversion.

(a)    Optional Conversion. At any time prior to the payment in full of all outstanding principal and interest owing under this Note, the Payee may elect to convert all or a portion of such outstanding principal and interest into a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the amount of such outstanding aggregate principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest through the date immediately prior to the date of conversion, by (ii) the Conversion Price. The Payee may exercise this right by delivering written notice of such conversion to the Maker in the form attached as Annex A (the “Conversion Notice”) and tendering this Note to the Maker. Such conversion shall be completed on a date specified in the Conversion Notice, which shall be not less than 10 and not more than 20 Business Days following the date of the Conversion Notice, and at such closing, the Maker shall issue to the Payee the number of shares of Class A Common Stock set forth in the notice of conversion, as well as a replacement note representing the unconverted principal amount of any notes tendered, such replacement note to have the same terms and conditions as this Note. “Conversion Price” shall initially be $2.00, which may be adjusted from time to time as set forth herein.

(b)    Mandatory Conversion. Following the first anniversary of the date of the Agreement, and at any time in which there are no issued and outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred Stock, if the Twenty-Day VWAP is greater than $2.00 for ten (10) trading days during any twenty (20) consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the

date on which the Maker provides the Maker Conversion Notice as set forth below, then the Maker shall have the option from time to time, exercisable by delivery of written notice to the Payee substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex B (the “Maker Conversion Notice”), to convert all or a portion of the outstanding principal and interest then owing under this Note into a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the amount of such outstanding principal and interest owing through the date immediately prior to the date of conversion, by (B) the Conversion Price on a date specified in the Maker Conversion Notice that is no later than the second Business Day following such Maker Conversion Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6(b) shall have no force and effect during any period in which the Class A Common Stock is not listed on any national securities exchange.

(c)    Change of Control Forced Conversion. In the event of a Change of Control, subject to the Payee’s right to convert this Note into Class A Common Stock pursuant to Section 6(a), the Maker shall have the option, exercisable by delivery of written notice to the Payee substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex C (the “CoC Conversion Notice”) at least fifteen (15) Business Day prior to such Change of Control, to either (i) in full satisfaction hereof pay to the Payee in cash the amount of the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on this Note through the date immediately prior to the date of such Change of Control or (ii) convert no later than the tenth Business Day following such Change of Control all of the outstanding principal and interest then owing under this Note into a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the amount of such outstanding principal and interest through the date immediately prior to the Change of Control, by (B) either (1) the Twenty-Day VWAP for the twenty (20) trading day period (including the last day of such period) immediately preceding such Change of Control or (2) if the Change of Control occurs during any Delisted Period, then the Fair Market Value of the Class A Common Stock as of the date of the CoC Conversion Notice. For the Purposes hereof, (a) a “Change of Control” means (i) the consummation of any transaction by the Maker the result of which is that any person, other than any Permitted Holder (as defined below), becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting stock of the Maker, measured by voting power rather than number of shares, units or the like; provided that a transaction in which the Maker becomes a subsidiary of another person shall not constitute a Change of Control if, immediately following such transaction, the persons who were beneficial owners of the voting stock of the Maker immediately prior to such transaction beneficially own, directly or indirectly, fifty percent (50%) or more of the total voting power of the voting stock of such other person of whom the Maker has become a subsidiary or (ii) the sale of all or substantially all of the Maker’s assets; and (b) the “Permitted Holder” means any original holder of Convertible Senior Secured (Third Lien) PIK Notes and its affiliates.

(d)    Adjustments to Conversion Price. If, after the date hereof, the Maker (i) makes a distribution on its Class A Common Stock in cash, securities (including Class A Common Stock) or other property or assets, (ii) subdivides or splits its outstanding Class A Common Stock into a greater number of Class A Common Stock, (iii) combines or reclassifies its Class A Common Stock into a smaller number of Class A Common Stock or (iv) issues by reclassification of its Class A Common Stock any securities (including any reclassification in connection with a merger, consolidation or business combination in which the Maker is the surviving person or another constituent corporation is issuing equity securities in exchange for Class A Common Stock), then the Conversion Price in effect at the time of the record date for

such distribution or of the effective date of such subdivision, split, combination, or reclassification shall be proportionately adjusted so that the conversion of the Note after such time shall entitle the Payee to receive the aggregate number of Class A Common Stock (or shares of any securities into which such shares of Class A Common Stock would have been combined, consolidated, merged, reclassified or exchanged pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) above) that Payee would have been entitled to receive if the Note had been converted into shares of Class A Common Stock immediately prior to such record date or effective date, as the case may be. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 6(d) shall become effective immediately after the record date in the case of a distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination, reclassification (including any reclassification in connection with a merger, consolidation or business combination in which the Corporation is the surviving person or a constituent corporation) or split. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event described above shall occur.

(e)    Termination of Rights. Upon the issuance of shares of Class A Common Stock upon the conversion of any outstanding principal and interest owing under this Note, all rights of the Payee with respect to such principal and interest shall terminate.

7.    Share Limitations. Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in Section 3, Section 6 or anywhere else in this Note, (i) no shares of Class A Common Stock will be issued under this Note unless and until the Company shall have submitted a Listing of Additional Shares to the NASDAQ covering all the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable pursuant to this Note (the “Listing Application”) and NASDAQ shall have completed its review of, and approved, such listing application, (ii) no shares of Class A Common Stock will be issued under this Note to the extent such issuance would constitute a “change of control” under the Nasdaq’s listing rules (the “Change of Control Limitation”) or would be in excess of the number of shares of Class A Common Stock authorized and available for issuance under the Company’s charter (the “Charter Limitation”), and (iii) the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock that may be issued under the Equity Linked Notes at a price per share which is less than the Conversion Price, when combined with any other shares of Class A Common Stock which may be aggregated with such issuances under applicable NASDAQ rules for this purpose, will not exceed the number permitted under such applicable NASDAQ rules (the “Exchange Cap”), unless stockholder approval is obtained in order to comply with, satisfy or remove, as applicable, the Change of Control Limitation, the Charter Limitation, or the Exchange Cap, as applicable. The Exchange Cap will not apply to any issuance of shares of Class A Common Stock under this Note if the number of shares to be issued is calculated based on a value per share of Class A Common Stock that is equal to or greater than the Conversion Price. In the event that the Company is unable to issue shares of Class A Common Stock as a result of the NASDAQ not approving the Listing Application, the Change of Control Limitation, a Charter Limitation or the Exchange Cap, the Company will instead settle the conversion or payment due at Maturity in cash (but only to the extent necessary to not trigger a Change of Control Limitation, a Charter Limitation or the Exchange Cap, as applicable). To the extent shares of Class A Common Stock are to be issued pursuant to this Note and other Equity Linked Notes simultaneously and the Company is unable to issue shares of Class A Common Stock as a result of the Change of Control Limitation, a Charter Limitation or the Exchange Cap and must instead settle the conversion or payment partially in cash, the allocation of Class A Common Stock and cash to be issued or paid shall be pro rata among the Payee and the holders of such other Equity Linked Notes.

8.    Collateral. The Note Obligations are secured by that certain collateral as set forth in that certain Guarantee and Third Lien Collateral Agreement dated June 24, 2021, by and among Maker and the subsidiaries of Maker party thereto, as grantors, and Notes Agent (as amended, restated or supplemented from time to time, the “Third Lien Security Agreement”). The Payee has agreed to and accepted the terms and conditions of the Third Lien Security Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement and the performance by the Notes Agent of its respective obligations and the exercise of their respective rights thereunder and in connection therewith.

9.    Guarantees. The Note Obligations are guaranteed by U.S. Well Services, LLC, USWS Holdings LLC, USWS Fleet 10, LLC, USWS Fleet 11, LLC and by each of future wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Maker, under the terms of the Third Lien Security Agreement.

10.    Defaults and Remedies. The Agreement defines certain Events of Default. The Note Obligations may be accelerated following an Event of Default in the manner provided in the Agreement.

11.    Waiver of Notice. The Maker hereby waives demand for payment, presentment for payment, protest, notice of payment, notice of dishonor, notice of nonpayment, notice of acceleration of maturity and diligence in taking any action to collect sums owing hereunder.

12.    Officers and Directors Not Liable. In no event will any officer or director of the Maker be liable for any amounts due and payable pursuant to this Note.

13.    Applicable Law. THIS NOTE WILL BE GOVERNED BY AND INTERPRETED AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF THE LAW OF ANY OTHER STATE.
