     As previously announced, on February 14, 2011, Key Energy Services, Inc. (the “Company”) commenced a cash tender offer for any and all of its outstanding $425,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 8 3/8% Senior Notes due 2014 (the “8 3/8% Notes”) and a solicitation of consent to amend the indenture governing the 8 3/8% Notes (the “Indenture”) on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Company’s Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement, dated February 14, 2011. On March 1, 2011, the Company announced that, as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on February 28, 2011, it had received the requisite consents to amend the Indenture and accordingly entered into a Fourth Supplemental Indenture, dated March 1, 2011 (the “Supplemental Indenture”), to the Indenture with the subsidiary guarantors named therein and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee.
