SUPPLEMENT TO
PROXY STATEMENT FOR ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
TO BE HELD MAY 19, 2009
EXPLANATORY NOTE
This document is a supplement to our Proxy Statement dated March 30, 2009 and furnished in
connection with the 2009 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of CARBO Ceramics Inc. (the “Company”) to
be held Tuesday, May 19, 2009, at 9:00 A.M. local time, at The Mansion on Turtle Creek, 2821 Turtle
Creek Boulevard, Dallas, Texas. We wish to correct and clarify certain information contained in
our Proxy Statement regarding the meetings of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company
and its Committees during the 2008 fiscal year.
During the 2008 fiscal year, the Board met ten times, the Audit Committee met seven times, the
Compensation Committee met five times (not four as stated in the Proxy Statement), and the
Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee met two times. Each Director of the Company attended
at least 75% of the aggregate of the total number of meetings of the Board and of the Committees of
which such Director is a member.
