ARTICLE I
PURCHASE OF CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE
1.1 Purchase by WEDGE. At the Initial Closing Date, the Company hereby
agrees to sell, and WEDGE or an Affiliate agrees to purchase, the 6.75%
Convertible Subordinated Debenture, Series B, No. 1, due July 3, 2007, for the
aggregate amount of $25,000,000 payable upon WEDGE tendering to the Company, the
October 2001 Debenture, and tendering to Frost Bank, or the Company by wire
transfer the sum of $7,000,000 to satisfy all obligations of the Company
relating to the purchase of the Rigs. On the Subsequent Closing Date, the
Company agrees to sell, and WEDGE or an Affiliate agrees to purchase the 6.75%
Convertible Subordinated Debenture, Series B, No. 2, in the aggregate amount of
$3,000,000 by tendering such sum to the Company by wire transfer. Attached
hereto as Exhibit "A" is the form of Debenture which sets forth all rights of
WEDGE, as a holder of such Debenture, and all duties and obligations of the
Company, as the issuer of same. The Company and WEDGE hereby expressly
incorporate all terms and conditions of the Debenture as if it were set out in
their entirety in this Section 1.1.
1.2 Continued Enforceable Agreements. The Company and WEDGE hereby
acknowledge and confirm the continued enforceability of the Common Stock
Purchase Agreement entered into on or about May 18, 2001, expressly including,
but not limited to, Sections 1.4 and 1.7, and the Registration Rights Agreement
entered into between the parties simultaneously therewith. In the event there
shall be a conflict between this Agreement and either the Common Stock Purchase
Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement, the terms of this Agreement
shall govern.
1.3 Board Seat. So long as Purchaser shall own at least 10% of the
capital stock of the company, the Board of Directors agrees to support and cause
to be placed on the ballot at any election of Directors one person designated by
Purchaser who shall be a nominee to the Board of Directors of the Company (a
"WEDGE Board Nominee"), but only if necessary to cause at least one WEDGE Board
Nominee to continue as a director of the Company after such election. So long as
Purchaser shall own at least 25% of the capital stock of the Company, the Board
of Directors agrees to support and cause to be placed on the ballot at any
election of Directors up to three persons designated by Purchaser who shall be
nominees to the Board of Directors of the Company, but only if necessary to
cause at least three WEDGE Board nominees to continue as Directors of the
Company after such election. If WEDGE shall have three WEDGE Board Nominees on
the Board of Directors at least one shall be an individual with no affiliation
to Purchaser, or its affiliates, who shall serve as an independent outside
director. Additionally, at least one WEDGE Board Nominee shall be appointed to
serve on the audit committee and compensation committee of the Board of
Directors. Beginning the date hereof, the foregoing shall constitute the only
agreement between Purchaser and the Company and its Board of Directors regarding
the nomination by Purchaser of members of the Board of Directors of the Company.
1.4 Outstanding Interest. The Company, simultaneous with the executive
hereof, will tender to WEDGE a check in the amount of $283,500 to pay for all
accrued and unpaid interest relating to the October Debenture.
1.5 Definitions. All capitalized terms, not otherwise defined herein,
shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Debenture.

1.6 Assignability. WEDGE shall have the absolute, unfettered right to
assign all, or any part of the Debenture to an Affiliate of WEDGE by tendering
written notice to the Company and the Company shall cause the Debenture to be
issued to such assignee.
ARTICLE II

Agreement (herein called the "Closings") shall take place at the offices of

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES BY THE COMPANY AND WEDGE
3.1 The Company hereby acknowledges and expressly reconfirms all
warranties and representations contained in Article IV of the Debenture.
3.2 WEDGE represents and warrants that:
(a) Experience. WEDGE is an "accredited investor" within the
meaning of Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
Commission under the Act, and (by virtue of its experience in
evaluating and investing in private placement transactions of
securities in companies similar to the Company) it is capable of
evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Company. WEDGE
acknowledges that it had the opportunity to ask questions of the
officers of the Company. In reaching the conclusion that it desires to
acquire the Debenture and the Stock upon conversion, WEDGE has
evaluated its financial resources and investment position and the risks
associated with this investment and acknowledges that it is able to
bear the economic risks of this investment.
(b) Restricted Securities. As of the date hereof, WEDGE
represents, warrants and agrees that it is acquiring the Debenture, and
upon conversion the Stock, solely for its own account, for investment,
and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. WEDGE
further represents that its present financial condition is such that it
is not under any present necessity or constraint to dispose of such
Debenture or the Stock into which it is convertible to satisfy any
existing or contemplated debt or undertaking and that the investment is
suitable for WEDGE upon the basis of WEDGE's other security holdings,
financial situation and needs. WEDGE acknowledges and understands that
it must bear the economic risk of this investment for an indefinite
period of time because the Stock must be held indefinitely unless
subsequently registered under the Act and applicable state and other
securities laws or unless an exemption from such registration is
available.
-3-
(c) Unregistered Stock. WEDGE is aware that the Debenture and
the Stock have not been registered under the Act, and that,
accordingly, the Stock must be held unless it is subsequently
registered under said Act or unless, in the opinion of counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Company, a sale or transfer may be made
without registration thereunder. WEDGE agrees that any certificates
evidencing the Stock must bear a standard legend restricting the
transfer thereof consistent with the foregoing and that a notice may be
made in the records of the Company or its transfer agent restricting
the transfer of the Stock in a manner consistent with the foregoing.
ARTICLE IV
REGISTRATION RIGHTS
