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

On October 22, 2019, C&J Energy Services, Inc. (“C&J”) held a Special Meeting of Stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) in Houston, Texas to consider certain proposals related to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 16, 2019, by and among Keane Group, Inc. (“Keane”), King Merger Sub Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Keane (“Merger Sub”), and C&J (the “Merger Agreement”), which provides, among other things and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, that (i) Merger Sub will merge with and into C&J, with C&J surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Keane and (ii) immediately thereafter, as part of the same transaction, C&J will merge with and into a wholly owned subsidiary of Keane, with such subsidiary continuing as the surviving entity (the “Merger”).
