Exhibit 10.1

Execution Version

THIS WAIVER TO CREDIT AGREEMENT (this “Waiver”) is entered into as of May 28, 2021 by SESI, L.L.C., a limited liability company duly formed and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Borrower”), SESI Holdings, Inc., a corporation duly formed and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Parent”), each of the undersigned Guarantors (together with the Borrower and Parent, the “Loan Parties”), each of the undersigned Lenders, each Issuing Lender and JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., as administrative agent for the Lenders.

R E C I T A L S

A. The Borrower, the Parent, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders are parties to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of February 2, 2021 (as amended by that certain First Amendment and Waiver to Credit Agreement, dated as of May 13, 2021 (the “First Amendment”), the “Credit Agreement”), pursuant to which the Lenders and Issuing Lenders have made certain credit available to and on behalf of the Borrower.

B. The Borrower has requested that the Lenders consent to an extension until July 15, 2021 for (i) the period specified in Section 6.1(a)(ii) to deliver (x) the consolidated unaudited balance sheets of Superior Topco and its consolidated subsidiaries and (y) the consolidated profit and loss statements of Superior Topco and its consolidated subsidiaries, in each case, for the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2021 and (ii) the period specified in Section 6.1(a)(iii) to deliver (x) consolidated unaudited balance sheets of Superior Topco and its consolidated subsidiaries, (y) consolidated profit and loss statements of Superior Topco and its consolidated subsidiaries and (z) cash flow statements of Superior Topco and its consolidated subsidiaries, in each case, for the calendar months ending April 30, 2021 and May 31, 2021 (collectively, the “Financials Extension Request”). Such financial statements referred to in clause (i)(x)-(y) and clause (ii)(x)-(z) hereof are defined herein as the “Applicable Financial Statements”.

C. Under the First Amendment and in connection with this Waiver, the Borrower has notified the Lenders that Superior TopCo may be unable to deliver to the SEC its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2021 (the “Q1 10-Q”), within the time period required by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the SEC (the “Q1 10-Q Deadline”). Accordingly, under the First Amendment, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders agreed to waive compliance with Sections 4.2(a)(ii) and 6.7(a), in each case, solely to the extent arising from the failure of Superior TopCo to deliver the Q1 10-Q by the Q1 10-Q Deadline (the “10-Q Compliance Waiver”).

D. The Borrower has further requested that the Required Lenders waive compliance with certain provisions of the Credit Agreement and reaffirm the 10-Q Compliance Waiver.

E. NOW, THEREFORE, to induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders party hereto to enter into this Waiver and in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants herein contained, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Section 1. Defined Terms. Each capitalized term used herein but not otherwise defined herein has the meaning given such term in the Credit Agreement. Unless otherwise indicated, all article, exhibit, section and schedule references in this Waiver refer to articles, exhibits, sections and schedules of the Credit Agreement.

It shall be an Event of Default if the Administrative Agent does not receive the Updated Borrowing Base prior to the date five (5) Business Days after the Administrative Agent receives the Applicable Financial Statements. Such date that the Borrower has delivered the (a) Applicable Financial Statements and (b) Updated Borrowing Base Certificate is herein defined as the “Waiver Documentation Delivery Date”.

Section 3. Borrowing Condition. The Lenders shall not be required to make any Advance requested by the Borrower unless the Waiver Documentation Delivery Date has occurred.

Section 4. Conditions Precedent. This Waiver shall be deemed effective upon the date on which each of the following conditions is satisfied (or waived in accordance with Section 9.11 of the Credit Agreement) (such date, the “Waiver Effective Date”):

4.1. Execution and Delivery. The Administrative Agent shall have received from the Loan Parties, each Issuing Lender and the Lenders constituting the Required Lenders, counterparts (in such number as may be requested by the Administrative Agent) of this Waiver signed on behalf of such Person.

4.3. No Default or Event of Default. No Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing as of the date hereof, after giving effect to the terms of this Waiver.

The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized and directed to declare this Waiver to be effective when it has received documents confirming or certifying, to the satisfaction of the Administrative Agent, compliance with the conditions set forth in this Section 4 or the waiver of such conditions as permitted by Section 9.11 of the Credit Agreement. Such declaration shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties to the Credit Agreement for all purposes.

Section 5. Miscellaneous.

5.2. Ratification and Affirmation; Representations and Warranties. Each Loan Party hereby (a) acknowledges the terms of this Waiver; (b) ratifies and affirms its obligations under, and

acknowledges, renews and extends its continued liability under, each Loan Document to which it is a party and agrees that each Loan Document to which it is a party remains in full force and effect, except as expressly amended hereby, notwithstanding the amendments contained herein; and (c) represents and warrants to the Lenders that as of the date hereof, after giving effect to the terms of this Waiver: (i) all of the representations and warranties contained in each Loan Document to which it is a party are true and correct in all material respects, except to the extent any such representations and warranties are stated to relate solely to an earlier date, in which case, such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date (provided that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representation or warranty that is already qualified or modified by materiality in the Credit Agreement) and (ii) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

5.3. No Waiver; Loan Document.

On and after the Waiver Effective Date, this Waiver shall for all purposes constitute a Loan Document.

5.4. Counterparts. This Waiver may be executed by one or more of the parties hereto in any number of separate counterparts, and all of such counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Waiver that is an electronic sound, symbol, or process attached to, or associated with, a contract or other record and adopted by a Person with the intent to sign, authenticate or accept such contract or record (an “Electronic Signature”) transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Waiver. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to this Waiver shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in any electronic form (including deliveries by telecopy, emailed pdf or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page), each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be; provided that, without limiting the foregoing, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, any electronic signature shall be promptly followed by such manually executed counterpart (in such number as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent).

THIS WAIVER, THE CREDIT AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH AND THEREWITH REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES.
