         With the exception of historical matters, the matters discussed in this
press release are "forward-looking statements" as defined under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that involve risks and uncertainties. The
Company intends that the forward-looking statements herein be covered by the

Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and this statement is included for
the purpose of complying with these safe-harbor provisions. Forward-looking
statements include, but are not limited to, the matters described herein. Such
forward-looking statements relate to the Company's ability to generate revenues
and attain and maintain profitability and cash flow, the stability and level of
prices for natural gas and oil, predictions and expectations as to the
fluctuations in the levels of natural gas and oil prices, pricing in the natural
gas and oil services industry and the willingness of customers to commit for
natural gas and oil well services, the ability of the Company to engage in and
complete the proposed recapitalization and restructuring of its balance sheet, a
proposed underwritten public offering of its securities, the possible
refinancing of its outstanding indebtedness, the ability of the Company to
integrate and successfully operate the business activities of BobCat, a merger

transaction, the ability of the Company to raise debt or equity capital to
recapitalize or restructure its balance sheet and to obtain additional financing

compete in the premium natural gas and oil services market. The inability of the
Company to meet these objectives or requirements or the consequences on the
Company from adverse developments in general economic conditions, changes in
capital markets, adverse developments in the natural gas and oil industry,
developments in international relations and the commencement or expansion of
hostilities by the United States or other governments and events of terrorism,
declines and fluctuations in the prices for natural gas and oil, weather events
disrupting natural gas and oil operations and other factors could have a
