Golsen (“J. Golsen”), Barry H. Golsen (“B. Golsen”), Golsen Family, L.L.C., an Oklahoma limited liability company (“GFLLC”), SBL, L.L.C., an Oklahoma limited liability company (“SBL”), and Golsen Petroleum Corporation, an Oklahoma corporation (“GPC”)(each of J. Golsen, B. Golsen, GFLLC, SBL and GPC are referred to herein as a “Reporting Person” and collectively as the “Reporting Persons”), who may be deemed to beneficially own certain shares of the Common Stock of the Company. The principal executive offices of the Company are located at 16 South Pennsylvania Ave., Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73107. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Amendment No. 51 shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D. Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 51 does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Schedule 13D.

Pursuant to the transactions described in this paragraph and in Item 5(c) hereof, this Amendment 51 is being filed to report the change in beneficial ownership of the Common Stock of J. Golsen and B. Golsen, as a result of (a) the resignation of J. Golsen as sole trustee of certain trusts created for the benefit of certain of J. Golsen’s children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, and (b) the appointment of B. Golsen as successor trustee of such trusts.

As of February 22, 2017, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 2,933,582 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 10.2% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock. The numbers shown on the preceding pages and in Item 5 below reflect multiple counting of certain shares since beneficial ownership of those shares is attributable to more than one Reporting Person by Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, as further described in Item 5 below.
