Explanatory Note

This statement on Schedule 13D (this “Amendment”) relates to the common stock, par value $0.10 per share (the “Common Stock”), of LSB Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). The address of the principal executive offices of the Issuer is 3503 NW 63^rd Street, Suite 500, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73116.

This Amendment represents Amendment No. 53 to the Schedule 13D dated October 7, 1985 (as amended through Amendment No. 52, the “Schedule 13D”) Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Amendment shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.

This Amendment is being filed jointly by Steven J. Golsen (“Golsen”), Golsen Family, L.L.C., an Oklahoma limited liability company (“GFLLC”), Quad Capital, LLC, an Oklahoma limited liability company (“Quad Capital”), SBL, L.L.C., an Oklahoma limited liability company (“SBL”), and Golsen Petroleum Corporation, an Oklahoma corporation (“GPC”) (each of Golsen, GFLLC, Quad Capital, SBL and GPC is referred to herein as a “Reporting Person” and collectively as the “Reporting Persons”), who may be deemed to beneficially own certain shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer. Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Schedule 13D.

This Amendment is being filed to report that the Issuer filed a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q on November 2, 2021, which stated that the Company’s total number of outstanding shares of Common Stock had increased to 88,824,475 shares as of October 27, 2021 (the “Outstanding Share Increase”). As a result of the Outstanding Share Increase, the percentage of outstanding shares that each Reporting Person may be deemed to beneficially own was reduced to less than 5%. Accordingly, this Amendment constitutes an “exit filing” for the Reporting Persons.

The numbers shown on the preceding pages and in Item 5 below reflect multiple counting of certain shares since beneficial ownership of those shares is attributable to more than one Reporting Person by Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, as further described in Item 5 below.

Page 10 of 14 Pages

The filing of the Schedule 13D by the Reporting Persons, as amended by this Amendment No. 53, is not an admission that any Reporting Person, for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act, is the beneficial owner of any shares of Common Stock included in this Schedule 13D in which such Reporting Person does not have any ownership and economic interest.

As a result of the outstanding share increase reported by the Issuer on November 2, 2021, the percentage of outstanding shares that each Reporting Person may be deemed to beneficially own was reduced to less than 5%. Accordingly, this Amendment constitutes an “exit filing” for the Reporting Persons.

Filing Group. See Item 2 of this Amendment and Exhibit 99.1 for information relating to the joint filing statement of the Reporting Persons.

Board Representation and Standstill Agreement. Each of the Reporting Persons (with the exception of Quad Capital), as well as Jack E. Golsen, Barry H. Golsen, and Linda Golsen Rappaport (collectively, the “Golsen Holders”), is a party to a Board Representation and Standstill Agreement, dated December 4, 2015, as amended October 26, 2017, October 18, 2018, and September 27, 2021 (as so amended, the “Board Representation and Standstill Agreement”), together with the Issuer, LSB Funding, Security Benefit Corporation and Todd Boehly.

Under the Board Representation Agreement, the Golsen Holders, collectively, have the right to designate two directors (“Golsen Designated Directors”), and the Board of the Issuer shall nominate, and shall recommend the election of, and the vote by the stockholders for, the Golsen Holders Designated Directors. However, if the Golsen Holders, collectively, continue to beneficially own at least 2.5% (but not 5% or more) of the then outstanding Common Stock, the Golsen Holders will only be entitled to designate up to one director. These designation rights will terminate immediately on the first date on which the Golsen Holders, collectively, no longer beneficially own at least 2.5% of the then outstanding Common Stock. The foregoing description of the Board Representation Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Board Representation Agreement, a copy of which is

Letter Agreement. On December 4, 2015, the Golsen Holders and LSB Funding entered into a certain Letter Agreement. Under the terms of the Letter Agreement, the Golsen Holders agreed to not transfer any of the shares of Common Stock that the Golsen Holders beneficially owned as of November 6, 2015, subject to certain exceptions stated in the Letter Agreement.
