Item 3.03. Material Modification of Rights of Security Holders.

The information set forth in Item 5.03 of this report is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.03. Amendment to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

On May 11, 2020, FTS International, Inc. (the “Company”) filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, a Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Amendment”), a form of which was approved by the Company’s stockholders at the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on May 8, 2020 (the “Annual Meeting”) and by the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”).

The Certificate of Amendment effects a 1-for-20 reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), in which each twenty (20) shares of Common Stock outstanding as of May 11, 2020 will be automatically combined and converted into one (1) share of Common Stock. While the reverse stock split will decrease the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, it will not change the total number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance by the Company, nor will it change the par value of the Common Stock. The reverse stock split is intended to bring the Company into compliance with the minimum share price requirements for continued listing on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) and for a potential transfer of its listing to the NYSE American.

No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued in connection with the reverse stock split. Instead, the Company will pay cash to any stockholder holding fractional shares as a result of the reverse stock split equal to such fraction multiplied by the closing price per share of Common Stock on the NYSE as of May 8, 2020 on a split-adjusted basis.

This summary of the Certificate of Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Certificate of Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated by reference herein.

The Company expects that the split-adjusted shares of its Common Stock will begin trading on the NYSE at the open of the market on May 12, 2020 under the new CUSIP number 30283W203. No change will be made to the trading symbol for the Common Stock, “FTSI”, in connection with the reverse stock split.

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

On May 8, 2020, at the Annual Meeting, all matters submitted for approval by the Company’s stockholders, as described in the Company’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 27, 2020 (the “Proxy Statement”), were approved. The number of shares of Common Stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting was 107,110,919, representing the number of shares outstanding as of March 12, 2020, the record date for the Annual Meeting.

The results of each matter voted on at the Annual Meeting were as follows:

Election of directors. The following directors were elected for terms expiring at the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders:
