February, 2003, by the each of the undersigned Restricted Subsidiaries. Terms
not defined herein shall have the meanings as set forth in the 2002 Indenture
(as described below).
RECITALS:
WHEREAS, in connection with the restructuring and reorganization of certain
subsidiaries of the Company each of undersigned Restricted Subsidiaries has
received property having a value in excess of $1 million from the Company or
another Restricted Subsidiary; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 10.02(a) of the Indenture dated May 2, 2002, (as
heretofore amended, the "2002 Indenture") by and between Parker Drilling Company
(the "Company"), the Restricted Subsidiaries which are already Subsidiary
Guarantors, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, as Trustee, pursuant to which the Company
has issued its 10 1/8% Senior Notes due 2009 (the "Notes"), it is a requirement
that each of the undersigned Restricted Subsidiaries execute a supplemental
indenture agreeing to be bound by the terms of the 2002 Indenture and to execute
a Subsidiary Guarantee in accordance with the terms of the 2002 Indenture; and
WHEREAS, each of the undersigned Restricted Subsidiaries has executed the Second
Supplemental Indenture to the 2002 Indenture pursuant to which it agrees to be a
Subsidiary Guarantor thereof and to execute a Subsidiary Guarantee;
NOW, THEREFORE:
Each of the undersigned Restricted Subsidiaries jointly and severally and
unconditionally guarantees, on a senior basis (each such guarantee being a
"Subsidiary Guarantee"), to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by
the Trustee irrespective of the validity or enforceability of the 2002
Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company under the 2002 Indenture
or the Notes, that: (i) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the
Notes of every series issued hereunder shall be paid in full when due, whether

Subsidiary Guarantors pursuant to the Subsidiary Guarantees are subject to the
terms of the 2002 Indenture, to which reference is hereby made for the precise
