7.75% Senior Notes Due 2015

CALGARY, Nov. 17 /CNW/ - Calfrac Well Services Ltd. ("Calfrac") (TSX-CFW) announced today the determination of the tender offer consideration to be paid pursuant to the terms of the previously announced tender offer and consent solicitation by Calfrac Holdings LP ("Calfrac Holdings"), a Delaware limited partnership, which is indirectly wholly owned by Calfrac, for its 7.75% Senior Notes due 2015 (the "Notes"). The tender offer and consent solicitation are being made by Calfrac Holdings pursuant to an offer to purchase and consent solicitation statement (the "Offer to Purchase") and a related letter of transmittal and consent, each dated as of November 3, 2010.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the tender offer, Calfrac Holdings will pay holders who validly tender and do not withdraw their Notes on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time on November 17, 2010 (the "Consent Date"), total consideration of $1,055.71 for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes accepted for purchase, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the early payment date. The total consideration includes a consent payment equal to $30 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes tendered. Holders whose Notes are validly tendered and not withdrawn after the Consent Date and on or prior to 11:59 p.m., New York City time on December 2, 2010, will be eligible to receive the tender offer consideration, namely the total consideration minus the consent payment or $1,025.71 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes accepted for purchase, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the final payment date.

As described in more detail in the Offer to Purchase, the tender offer consideration for the Notes was determined as of 12:00 p.m., New York City time on November 17, 2010, based on a fixed spread of 50 basis points over the yield based on the bid price of 0.181% on the 0.875% U.S. Treasury Note due February 28, 2011.

The early payment date is expected to be November 18, 2010.  The tender offer and consent solicitation will remain open for an additional 10 business days and will expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on December 2, 2010, unless extended, and, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, Calfrac Holdings expects to accept for purchase and settle all Notes tendered after the Consent Date on the final payment date, which is expected to be December 3, 2010.
