Explanatory Note

This Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A (the “Amendment”) amends the Current Report on Form 8-K of TETRA Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) filed on May 9, 2017 (the “Original Form 8-K”). The Original Form 8-K reported the final voting results of the Company’s 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on May 5, 2017 (the “2017 Annual Meeting”). The purpose of this Amendment is to disclose the Company’s decision regarding how frequently it will conduct future stockholder advisory votes to approve the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers (“Say-on-Pay Votes”). No other changes have been made to the Original Form 8-K.

Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

As previously reported in the Original Form 8-K, in a non-binding advisory vote on the frequency of future Say-on-Pay Votes held at the 2017 Annual Meeting, more than a majority of stockholders that voted on the matter indicated a preference to hold future Say-on-Pay Votes every year. The Company’s Board of Directors support the advisory resolution, and will include a Say-on-Pay Vote every year until the next non-binding advisory vote on the frequency of future Say-on-Pay Votes.
