Other Events. |
As previously disclosed, U.S. Well Services LLC (“USWS”), a subsidiary of U.S. Well Services, Inc. (the “Company”), was named a defendant in a case filed on January 14, 2019 in the Superior Court of Delaware (the “Court”) styled Smart Sand, Inc. v. U.S. Well Services LLC, C.A. 19C-01-144-PRW. In the case, Smart Sand alleged that USWS breached a multi-year contract under which Smart Sand supplied frac sand to USWS and claimed damages of approximately $54 million, and alleged certain other related claims. USWS denied that it breached the contract, alleged that Smart Sand breached the contract first, and asserted counterclaims for the misuse of USWS’ confidential information. USWS also asserted that the contract contains unenforceable penalty provisions.
On June 1, 2021, the Court ruled against USWS in the case on the breach of contract claim. While a final judgment has not yet been entered by the Court in this matter, the Company expects that the judgment amount will be material. The Company currently intends to appeal the final judgment after it has been entered by the Court.
SIGNATURES
