SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT
This Subscription Agreement (this "Agreement") is made and entered
into as of this 23rd day of July, 1997, by and between EAGLE GEOPHYSICAL, INC.,
a Delaware corporation ("Eagle"), and ▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ("▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇"), and
relates to the subscription by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ for 25,000 shares of common stock of
Eagle.

herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency
of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to purchase from Eagle, 25,000 shares (the "Shares")
of common stock of Eagle (the "Stock"), at a per share price of $16,
for an aggregate purchase price of $400,000 (the "Purchase Price"),

the Purchase Price by executing a promissory note in the original

public offering price of the Stock in connection with the Registration
Statement on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-28303) filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission by Eagle is determined to be less
than $16.00 per share of Stock, the Purchase Price shall be adjusted
downward accordingly, and the principal amount of the Note shall be
credited in an amount equal to the difference between the Purchase
Price as defined in Section 1(a) hereof and the adjusted Purchase
Price, which shall be based upon the actual initial public offering
price per share.
