OIL STATES INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 
1.     ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Oil States International, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (referred to in this report as we or the Company) have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission) pertaining to interim financial information. Certain information in footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to these rules and regulations. The unaudited financial statements included in this report reflect all the adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods covered and for the financial condition of the Company at the date of the interim balance sheet. Results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions by management in determining the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  If the underlying estimates and assumptions, upon which the financial statements are based, change in future periods, actual amounts may differ from those included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

The financial statements included in this report should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and accompanying notes included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the 2012 Form 10-K).

2.     RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB), which are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date.  Unless otherwise discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

In February 2013, the FASB issued a new accounting standard related to the reporting of amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (OCI). Under this standard, an entity is required to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated OCI by component. In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the financial statements or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated OCI by the respective line items of net income, but only if the amount reclassified is required to be reclassified in its entirety in the same reporting period. For amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional details about those amounts. This standard does not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in the financial statements and was effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2012. We adopted this standard in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three month period ended March 31, 2013, and the adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

5.     BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS AND GOODWILL

On December 14, 2012, we acquired all of the equity of Tempress Technologies, Inc. (Tempress) for purchase price consideration of $49.5 million consisting of $32.5 million in cash and contingent consideration of $17.0 million.  The Company funded escrow accounts totaling $25.3 million related to the contingent consideration and seller transaction indemnities which are classified as “Other noncurrent assets” in our March 31, 2013 Consolidated Balance Sheet.  Liabilities for contingent consideration and escrowed amounts potentially due to the seller total $22.3 million at March 31, 2013 and are classified as “Other noncurrent liabilities” in our Consolidated Balance Sheet.  Headquartered in Kent, Washington, Tempress designs, develops and markets a suite of highly specialized, hydraulically-activated tools utilized during downhole completion activities.  The operations of Tempress have been included in our well site services segment since the acquisition date.

On July 2, 2012, we acquired all of the operating assets of Piper Valve Systems, Ltd (Piper).  Headquartered in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Piper designs and manufactures high pressure valves and manifold components for oil and gas industry projects offshore (surface and subsea) and onshore.  Piper's valve technology complements our offshore products segment, allowing us to integrate their valve products and services into our existing subsea products such as pipeline end manifolds and terminals, increasing our suite of global deepwater product and service offerings.  Subject to customary post-closing adjustments, total cash consideration was $48.0 million.  The operations of Piper have been included in our offshore products segment since the acquisition date.

In accordance with current accounting standards regarding disclosures about segments of an enterprise and related information, the Company has identified the following reportable segments: well site services, accommodations, offshore products and tubular services.  The Company’s reportable segments represent strategic business units that offer different products and services.  They are managed separately because each business requires different technologies and marketing strategies.  Most of the businesses were initially acquired as a unit, and the management at the time of the acquisition was retained.  Subsequent acquisitions have been direct extensions to our business segments.  Separate business lines within the well site services segment have been disclosed to provide additional detail for that segment.  Results of a portion of our accommodations segment supporting traditional oil and natural gas drilling activities are impacted by seasonally higher activity during the Canadian winter drilling season occurring in the first calendar quarter.

12.   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is a party to various pending or threatened claims, lawsuits and administrative proceedings seeking damages or other remedies concerning its commercial operations, products, employees and other matters, including warranty and product liability claims and occasional claims by individuals alleging exposure to hazardous materials as a result of its products or operations. Some of these claims relate to matters occurring prior to its acquisition of businesses, and some relate to businesses it has sold. In certain cases, the Company is entitled to indemnification from the sellers of businesses, and in other cases, it has indemnified the buyers of businesses from it.  Although the Company can give no assurance about the outcome of pending legal and administrative proceedings and the effect such outcomes may have on it, management believes that any ultimate liability resulting from the outcome of such proceedings, to the extent not otherwise provided for or covered by insurance, will not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

13.   CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 Certain wholly-owned subsidiaries, as detailed below (the Guarantor Subsidiaries), have guaranteed all of the 6 1/2% Notes and all of the 5 1/8% Notes.  These guarantees are full and unconditional, subject to the following release provisions:

 
·
in connection with any sale, exchange or transfer (by merger, consolidation or otherwise) of the capital stock of that guarantor after which that guarantor is no longer a restricted subsidiary;

 
·
upon proper designation of a guarantor by the Company as an unrestricted subsidiary;

·
upon the release or discharge of all outstanding guarantees by a guarantor of indebtedness of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries under any credit facility;

 
·
upon legal or covenant defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of the indenture; or

 
·
upon the dissolution of a guarantor, provided no event of default has occurred under the indentures and is continuing.

The following condensed consolidating financial information is included so that separate financial statements of the Guarantor Subsidiaries are not required to be filed with the Commission. The condensed consolidating financial information presents investments in both consolidated and unconsolidated affiliates using the equity method of accounting.
 
The following condensed consolidating financial information presents: condensed consolidating statements of income for each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, condensed consolidating balance sheets as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 and the statements of cash flows for each of the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 of (a) the Company, parent/guarantor, (b) Acute Technological Services, Inc., Capstar Holding, L.L.C., Capstar Drilling, Inc., General Marine Leasing, L.L.C., Oil States Energy Services L.L.C., Oil States Energy Services Holding, Inc., Oil States Energy Services International Holding, L.L.C., Oil States Management, Inc., Oil States Industries, Inc., Oil States Skagit SMATCO, L.L.C., PTI Group USA L.L.C., PTI Mars Holdco 1, L.L.C., Sooner Inc., Sooner Pipe, L.L.C., Sooner Holding Company and Tempress Technologies, Inc. (the Guarantor Subsidiaries), (c) the non-guarantor subsidiaries, (d) consolidating adjustments necessary to consolidate the Company and its subsidiaries and (e) the Company on a consolidated basis.

We have corrected the presentation of our condensed consolidating statements of income for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 and our statement of cash flows for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 to properly reflect the investment in and equity earnings of certain non-guarantor subsidiaries by certain guarantor subsidiaries in accordance with SEC Regulation S-X, which were previously only presented in the Parent/Guarantor column.  We have also corrected other immaterial amounts previously disclosed to properly present (i) the activity and balances of a certain guarantor subsidiary in the Guarantor Subsidiaries column which was previously presented in the Parent/Guarantor column and (ii) the activity and balances of a certain non-guarantor subsidiary in the Non-Guarantors column which was previously presented in the Guarantor Subsidiaries column.  The effect of these corrections increased net income for the Guarantor Subsidiaries by $56.6 million and decreased the net income for the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries by $0.3 million for three month period ended March 31, 2012.  These changes had no impact on consolidated results as previously reported.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

You should read the following discussion and analysis together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to those statements included elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

Macroeconomic Environment

We provide a broad range of products and services to the oil and gas industry through our accommodations, offshore products, well site services and tubular services business segments.  In our accommodations segment, we support both the oil and gas and mining industries.  Demand for our products and services is cyclical and substantially dependent upon activity levels in the oil and gas and mining industries, particularly our customers’ willingness to spend capital on the exploration for and development of oil, natural gas, metallurgical (met) coal and other mineral reserves.  Our customers’ spending plans are generally based on their outlook for near-term and long-term commodity prices, economic growth, commodity demand and estimates of resource production.  As a result, demand for our products and services is highly sensitive to current and expected commodity prices, principally that of crude oil, met coal and natural gas.

In the past few years, crude oil prices have been volatile due to global economic movements and uncertainties including regional take-away pipeline capacity.  This volatility continued in the first quarter of 2013 with fluctuations in crude oil prices in response to changing market sentiment regarding the outlook for growth in the economies of the U.S. and China, decreased crude oil production by Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC)  member countries, particularly Saudi Arabia, heightened geopolitical risks in the Middle East and North Africa, increased oil production in the U.S. and delays in the start-up of the Seaway pipeline expansion which is intended to reduce surplus crude oil supplies in the U.S. Midwest.  The price of West Texas Intermediates (WTI) crude oil increased from an average price of $88 per barrel in the fourth quarter of 2012 to $94 per barrel in the first quarter of 2013, finishing the quarter at $97 per barrel.  The price of Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) Brent crude increased modestly from an average price of $110 per barrel in the fourth quarter of 2012 to $112 per barrel in the first quarter of 2013, finishing the quarter at $108 per barrel.  As of April 24, 2013, WTI crude is trading at approximately $90 per barrel while ICE Brent crude is trading at approximately $100 per barrel.  In Canada, Western Canadian Select (WCS) crude, which is the price that many of our oil sands accommodations customers receive, traded at a discount to WTI crude that decreased from above $40 per barrel in early January 2013, when limited pipeline capacity and Canadian and U.S. refinery maintenance work caused increased inventory levels within the Alberta market, to below $15 per barrel by the end of the first quarter of 2013 once the pipeline issues were resolved and refinery maintenance decreased.  As of April 24, 2013, WCS crude is trading at a discount to WTI crude of $18.
 
 
22

 
 
Given the historical volatility of WTI crude prices, there remains a risk that prices could deteriorate going forward due to potentially slowing growth rates in China, fiscal and financial uncertainty in various European countries, potentially negative effects on economic growth in the U.S. due to automatic government spending cuts and a prolonged level of relatively high unemployment in the U.S. and other advanced economies.  However, if the global supply of oil and global inventory levels were to decrease due to government instability in many oil-producing nations and energy demand continues to increase in countries such as China, India and the U.S., we could see continued and/or additional increases in WTI crude prices which could positively affect future U.S. drilling activity.  Conversely, if WCS crude prices continue to experience a discount to WTI crude, our oil sands customers’ may have an incentive to delay increased investments in oil sands production.

Prices for natural gas in the United States improved during the first quarter of 2013, largely due to above average storage withdrawals in response to colder than normal weather, continued elevated demand for natural gas for electric power generation (in substitution for coal, so called “gas for coal switching”), lower net imports from Canada and higher industrial demand.  However, natural gas prices continue to be weak relative to prices experienced in 2006 through 2008 due to the rise in production from unconventional natural gas resources in North America, specifically onshore shale production, resulting from the broad application of horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing techniques.  Natural gas prices are trading at approximately $4.25 per Mcf as of April 24, 2013.  In addition, a considerable amount of natural gas is being derived as a by-product of drilling crude oil and natural gas liquids-oriented wells in liquids-rich onshore basins.  As a result, the U.S. gas-related working rig count has declined from more than 800 rigs at the beginning of 2012 to less than 380 rigs as of April 19, 2013, a 14-year low.  Natural gas inventories in the U.S. have declined from 60% above the 5-year average as of the end of the first quarter of 2012 to 2% below the 5-year average as of the end of the first quarter of 2013.  Any increases in the supply of natural gas, whether the supply comes from conventional or unconventional production or associated gas production from oil wells, could constrain prices for natural gas for an extended period and result in fewer rigs drilling for gas in the near-term.

Because Chinese steel production has been growing at a slower pace than that experienced in 2010 and early 2011, Chinese demand for imported steel inputs such as met coal and iron ore decreased during the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012.  Met coal prices have decreased from over $200/metric ton at the beginning of 2012 to approximately $160/metric ton at the end of the first quarter of 2013.  Depressed met coal prices have led to some coal mine closures as well as delays in the start-up of some coal mining projects in Australia.

Various oil and gas industry analysts have projected increased 2013 global exploration and production expenditures compared to 2012.  North American capital spending plans are likely to be lower year-over-year and are expected to be focused in oil-related onshore shale areas while international exploration and production budgets are expected to increase and primarily be spent on offshore projects.

Overview

Demand for our accommodations and offshore products segments is primarily tied to the long-term outlook for commodity prices.  In contrast, demand for our well site services and tubular services segments responds to shorter-term movements in oil and natural gas prices and, specifically, changes in North American drilling and completion activity.  Other factors that can affect our business and financial results include the general global economic environment and regulatory changes in the U. S. and internationally.

Our accommodations business is predominantly located in northern Alberta, Canada and Queensland, Australia and derives most of its business from resource companies who are developing and producing oil sands and met coal resources and, to a lesser extent, other mineral resources.  More than two-thirds of our accommodations revenue is generated by our large-scale lodge and village facilities.  Where traditional accommodations and infrastructure are not accessible or cost effective, our semi-permanent lodge and village facilities provide comprehensive accommodations services similar to those found in an urban hotel.  We typically contract our facilities to our customers on a fee per day basis covering lodging and meals that is based on the duration of their needs which can range from several months to several years.
 
Generally, our oil sands and mining accommodations’ customers are making multi-billion dollar investments to develop their prospects, which have estimated reserve lives of ten years to in excess of thirty years and, consequently, these investments are dependent on those customers' longer-term view of commodity demand and prices.  Oil sands development activity has increased over the past several years and has had a positive impact on our accommodations segment.  Sanctioning of new and expanded oil sands projects by our customers will create the opportunity for extensions of existing accommodations contracts and incremental accommodations contracts for us in Canada.  For example, in the third quarter of 2012, we were awarded a ten-year contract in support of future operations personnel working on the Kearl Project, one of the Canadian oil sands potentially largest mining operations.  With the WCS crude discount to WTI crude, several oil sands customers have announced the deferral of new oil sands projects, which could negatively affect the occupancy in our existing rooms or our ability to expand our oil sands room count.

We are expanding our Australian accommodations capacity to meet increasing demand, notably in the Bowen Basin in Queensland and in the Gunnedah and Hunter basins in New South Wales to support met coal production, and in Western Australia to support LNG and other energy-related projects.  Accommodations deployed to support onshore U.S. drilling activity in several of the active shale play regions have also favorably contributed to our results.

Our offshore products segment provides highly engineered products for offshore oil and natural gas drilling and production systems and facilities.  Sales of our offshore products and services depend primarily upon development of infrastructure for offshore production systems and subsea pipelines, repairs and upgrades of existing offshore drilling rigs and construction of new offshore drilling rigs and vessels. In this segment, we are particularly influenced by global deepwater drilling and production spending, which are driven largely by our customers’ longer-term outlook for oil and natural gas prices.

As a result of the positive outlook for long-term oil demand, along with continued high oil prices, bidding and quoting activity for our offshore products segment increased during the first quarter of 2013.  As a result of this increased activity, backlog in our offshore products segment increased from $529 million as of March 31, 2012 to $564 million as of March 31, 2013.  Offshore products’ backlog totaled $561 million as of December 31, 2012.  We anticipate global deepwater spending to continue at robust levels due to new award opportunities coming from Brazil, West Africa, the U.S. Gulf of Mexico and Southeast Asia over the next twelve months.

Our well site services business segment is affected by drilling and completion activity primarily in the U.S. and, to a lesser extent, Canada and the rest of the world.  Until recently, overall industry activity has been primarily driven by spending for natural gas exploration and production, particularly in the shale play regions of the U.S. using horizontal drilling and completion techniques.  However, considering higher oil prices, lower natural gas prices and the advancement of horizontal drilling and completion techniques, activity in North America has shifted to a greater proportion of oil and liquids-rich drilling.  According to rig count data published by Baker Hughes Incorporated, the oil rig count in the U.S. as of April 19, 2013 totals approximately 1,370 rigs, comprising approximately 78% of total U.S. drilling activity.

In our well site services business segment, we predominantly provide completion services and, to a lesser extent, land drilling services.  Our completion services business provides equipment and service personnel utilized in the completion and initial production of new and recompleted wells.  Activity for the completion services business is dependent primarily upon the level and complexity of drilling, completion and workover activity throughout North America.  Well complexity has increased as the number of productive zones completed in connection with horizontal drilling has increased.  Demand for our drilling services is driven by land drilling activity in our primary drilling markets of West Texas, where we primarily drill oil wells, and the Rocky Mountain area in the U.S., where we drill both liquids-rich and natural gas wells.

Through our tubular services segment, we distribute a broad range of casing and tubing used in the drilling and completion of oil and natural gas wells primarily in North America. Accordingly, sales and gross margins in our tubular services segment depend upon the overall level of drilling activity, the types of wells being drilled, movements in global steel input prices and the overall industry level of oil country tubular goods (OCTG) manufacturing capacity, inventory and pricing.  Historically, tubular services’ gross margin generally expands during periods of rising OCTG prices and contracts during periods of decreasing OCTG prices.  Our tubular services business segment has historically been our most cyclical business segment.  OCTG prices fell throughout 2012, and pricing pressures continued into early 2013 due to strong import levels and increasing domestic capacity and production.

We have a diversified product and service offering, which has exposure to activities conducted throughout the oil and gas cycle.  Demand for our tubular services, land drilling and completion services businesses is highly correlated to changes in the drilling rig count in the United States and, to a much lesser extent, Canada. The table below sets forth a summary of North American rig activity, as measured by Baker Hughes Incorporated, for the periods indicated.

Total North America
    2,294       2,177       2,583  

The average North American rig count for the three months ended March 31, 2013 decreased by 289 rigs, or 11.2%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2012 largely due to a decline in natural gas drilling.

A factor that influences the financial results for our accommodations segment is the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the Canadian dollar and, to a lesser extent, the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the Australian dollar.  Our accommodations segment has derived a majority of its revenues and operating income in Canada and, since 2011, Australia.  These revenues and profits are translated into U.S. dollars for U.S. GAAP financial reporting purposes.  Although U.S. dollar and Canadian dollar exchange rates were comparable in the first three months of 2013 and 2012, the Australian dollar was valued at an average exchange rate of U.S. $1.04 in the first three months of 2013 compared to U.S. $1.06 for the first three months of 2012, a decrease of 2%.  This weakening of the Australian dollar had a proportionately negative impact on the translation of earnings generated from our Australian subsidiary and, therefore, the financial results of our accommodations segment.

Steel and steel input prices influence the pricing decisions of our OCTG suppliers, thereby impacting the pricing and margins of our tubular services segment.  During 2011 and 2012, OCTG marketplace supply and demand became more balanced compared to the previous two years as increased supplies of OCTG met the increased demand created by expanded drilling activity.  Throughout 2012 and into the first three months of 2013, imports of OCTG have increased, particularly goods imported from Canada and South Korea followed by India, Mexico and Japan.  Additionally, domestic OCTG mill capacity increased in 2012.  These increases in supply have primarily been in response to increased well complexity and offshore drilling.  The OCTG Situation Report suggests that industry OCTG inventory levels increased throughout 2012 and early 2013 and currently stand at five to six months' supply.  Ample industry inventory on the ground along with increasing imports and domestic production put downward pressure on OCTG prices throughout 2012 and early 2013.

We remain focused on working capital management and generating returns on invested capital in our tubular services segment and will continue to monitor industry inventory levels, forecasted drilling and completion activity and OCTG prices.

While global demand for oil and natural gas are significant factors influencing our business generally, certain other factors also influence our business, such as the pace of worldwide economic growth and the recovery in U.S. Gulf of Mexico drilling following the lifting of the government imposed drilling moratorium.

Although higher than in 2012, the drilling rig count in the first quarter of 2013 in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico remains below historical levels following the April 2010 Macondo well incident and resultant oil spill in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico.  Beginning in the third quarter of 2011, however, U.S. Gulf of Mexico drilling activity has shown signs of a slow but steady recovery as permitting levels in general have improved.

We continue to monitor the global economy, the demand for crude oil, met coal and natural gas and the resultant impact on the capital spending plans and operations of our customers in order to plan our business.  We currently expect that our 2013 capital expenditures will total approximately $600 million to $650 million compared to 2012 capital expenditures of $488 million.  Our 2013 capital expenditures include funding to expand our Canadian oil sands and Australian mining related accommodations facilities, to fund our other product and service offerings, and to upgrade our equipment and facilities.  Approximately two-thirds of our total expected 2013 capital expenditures will be spent in our accommodations segment.  In our well site services segment, we continue to monitor industry capacity additions and will make future capital expenditure decisions based on an evaluation of both the market outlook and industry fundamentals.

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2013 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2012

We reported net income attributable to the Company for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 of $102.2 million, or $1.85 per diluted share, including a gain of $4.0 million, or $0.05 per diluted share after-tax, from the reversal of a liability associated with contingent acquisition consideration in our U.S. accommodations business.  This gain is included in “Other operating (income) expense” in the Consolidated Statements of Income.  These results compare to net income attributable to the Company of $135.1 million, or $2.43 per diluted share, including a gain of $0.23 per diluted share after-tax from a favorable contract settlement reported in our U.S. accommodations business, reported for the quarter ended March 31, 2012.

Revenues.   Consolidated revenues decreased $29.6 million, or 3%, in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012.
 
 
27

 
 
Our well site services segment revenues decreased $5.5 million, or 3%, in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 primarily due to a decrease in drilling services revenues, partially offset by an increase in completion services revenues.  Our completion services revenues increased $1.7 million, or 1%, in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 as a favorable mix of demand for the Company’s proprietary tools, particularly in the Bakken region, led to a 6% increase in revenue per ticket (excluding the contribution from the acquisition of Tempress completed in the fourth quarter of 2012.)  The number of service tickets issued in the first quarter of 2013 decreased 7% compared to the first quarter of 2012 (also excluding the contribution from the acquisition of Tempress) due primarily to reduced activity, particularly in the Haynesville, Barnett and Marcellus regions, resulting from reduced customer spending in dry gas markets, partially offset by increased activity in the Bakken region. Our drilling services revenues decreased $7.2 million, or 15%, in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 primarily as a result decreased utilization of our rigs from an average of approximately 88% for the first quarter of 2012 to an average of approximately 72% for the first quarter of 2013.
 
Our accommodations segment reported revenues in the first quarter of 2013 that were $5.1 million, or 2%, lower than the first quarter of 2012.  This decrease was primarily due to a favorable contract settlement reported in our U.S. accommodations business of $18.3 million in the first quarter of 2012.  Excluding the contract settlement in the first quarter of 2012, revenues in our accommodations segment were up $13.2 million, or 5%.  Year-over-year revenue growth was largely due to an increased room count in our oil sands lodges and improved revenues from our Canadian mobile camp assets, partially offset by lower occupancy levels in Australia and lower utilization in 2013 for our U.S. accommodations assets.  Occupancy in Australia averaged 97% in the first quarter of 2012 compared to 84% in the first quarter of 2013.  Revenues and average available rooms for our lodges and villages increased 9% and 13%, respectively, while revenue per available room (RevPar) decreased 3% in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012.  The decrease in the RevPar in 2013 compared to 2012 was primarily due to decreased occupancy levels in Australia.
 
Our offshore products segment revenues increased $15.6 million, or 8%, in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012.  This increase was primarily the result of contributions from the acquisition of Piper, which was acquired in July 2012, along with increased drilling and subsea product sales.

Our tubular services segment revenues decreased $34.6 million, or 8%, in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012.  This decrease was primarily due to a 9% decrease in realized revenues per ton shipped in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 due to sales mix and reduced mill pricing.  Despite the 12% year-over-year decrease in U.S. drilling and completion activity, we reported an increase in tons shipped from 205,400 in 2012 to 207,900 in 2013, an increase of 2,500 tons, or 1%.

Cost of Sales and Service.   Our consolidated cost of sales decreased $3.5 million, or less than 1%, in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 as a result of decreased cost of sales at our tubular services and well site services segments of $27.6 million, or 7%, and $1.9 million, or 2%, respectively, partially offset by increased cost of sales at our offshore products and accommodations segments of $15.1 million, or 11%, and $10.9 million, or 8%, respectively.  Our consolidated gross margin as a percentage of revenues decreased from 28% in the first quarter of 2012 to 26% in the first quarter of 2013 primarily due to the favorable contract settlement reported in our U.S. accommodations business in 2012.  Excluding the favorable contract settlement, our consolidated gross margin as a percentage of revenues would have been 26% in the first quarter of 2012.

Our well site services segment cost of sales decreased $1.9 million, or 2%, in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 as a result of a $4.5 million, or 13%, decrease in drilling services cost of sales, partially offset by a $2.6 million, or 3%, increase in completion services cost of sales.  Our well site services segment gross margin as a percentage of revenues decreased modestly from 35% in the first quarter of 2012 to 34% in the first quarter of 2013.  Our completion services segment gross margin as a percentage of revenues decreased modestly from 38% in the first quarter of 2012 to 36% in the first quarter of 2013.  Our drilling services gross margin as a percentage of revenues decreased from 28% in the first quarter of 2012 to 26% in the first quarter of 2013 primarily due to decreased rig utilization and cost absorption along with increased trucking costs.
 
Our accommodations segment cost of sales increased $10.9 million, or 8%, in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 primarily due to increased revenues and room capacity in Canada.  Our accommodations segment gross margin as a percentage of revenues decreased from 54% in the first quarter of 2012 to 49% in the first quarter of 2013 primarily due to the favorable contract settlement reported in our U.S. accommodations business in 2012.  Excluding the favorable contract settlement, our accommodations segment gross margin as a percentage of revenues would have been 51% in the first quarter of 2012.  The decrease in gross margin as a percentage of revenues from the adjusted 51% in 2012 to 49% in 2013 was primarily due to decreased occupancy levels in our U.S. and Australian accommodations businesses.

Our offshore products segment cost of sales increased $15.1 million, or 11%, in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 primarily due to increased revenues.  Our offshore products segment gross margin as a percentage of revenues decreased from 27% in the first quarter of 2012 to 25% in the first quarter of 2013 primarily due to product mix.

Our tubular services segment cost of sales decreased by $27.6 million, or 7%, in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 primarily as a result of lower priced OCTG inventory being sold.  Our tubular services segment gross margin as a percentage of revenues decreased from 6.3% in the first quarter of 2012 to 5.1% in the first quarter of 2013 primarily due to lower industry pricing and product mix.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.   Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense increased $7.1 million, or 15%, in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 primarily due to increased employee-related costs, SG&A expense associated with the inclusion of the Piper Valve business, which was acquired in July 2012, and increased office expenses and professional fees.

Depreciation and Amortization.   Depreciation and amortization expense increased $16.3 million, or 32%, in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 primarily due to capital expenditures made during the previous twelve months largely related to investments in our Canadian and Australian accommodations and completion services businesses.

Operating Income.   Consolidated operating income decreased $43.3 million, or 21%, in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 primarily as a result of a decrease in operating income from our accommodations segment of $24.1 million, or 20%, due to the favorable contract settlement reported in our U.S. accommodations business in 2012 and the increased depreciation expense on accommodations assets partially offset by the gain of $4.0 million from the reversal of a liability associated with contingent acquisition consideration in our U.S. accommodations business.  In addition, operating income from our well site services segment decreased $8.5 million, or 21%, primarily due to the increased depreciation expense on completion services assets and decreased rig utilization in our drilling services business.  Operating income from our tubular services segment decreased $7.4 million, or 33%, in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 largely due to the lower industry pricing and product mix.

Interest Expense and Interest Income.   Net interest expense increased by $1.9 million, or 11%, in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 primarily due to interest expense on the 5 1/8% Senior Notes due 2023 (5 1/8% Notes), issued on December 21, 2012, partially offset by decreased interest expense on our 2 3/8% Notes due 2025 (2 3/8% Notes) due to their conversion in July 2012.  The weighted average interest rate on the Company’s total outstanding debt was 5.3% in the first quarter of 2013 compared to 4.9% in the first quarter of 2012.  Interest income increased as a result of increased cash balances in interest bearing accounts.

Income Tax Expense.   Our income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2013 totaled $39.4 million, or 27.8% of pretax income, compared to income tax expense of $53.3 million, or 28.2% of pretax income, for the three months ended March 31, 2012.  The effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 are comparable and are lower than U.S. statutory rates because of lower foreign tax rates.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary liquidity needs are to fund capital expenditures, which in the past have included expanding our accommodations facilities, expanding and upgrading our offshore products manufacturing facilities and equipment, replacing and increasing completion services assets, funding new product development and general working capital needs. In addition, capital has been used to repay debt and fund strategic business acquisitions. Our primary sources of funds have been cash flow from operations, proceeds from borrowings under our credit facilities and capital markets transactions.
 
 
29

 
 
Cash totaling $218.6 million was provided by operations during the first three months of 2013 compared to cash totaling $67.2 million provided by operations during the first three months of 2012.  During the first three months of 2013, $56.5 million was provided from net working capital reductions, primarily due to decreases in receivables and inventory in our tubular services segment.  During the first three months of 2012, $122.4 million was used to fund working capital, primarily due to increased investments in working capital for our tubular services business, seasonal increases in receivables in our Canadian accommodations business and increased receivables in our offshore products segment due to increasing activity levels.

Cash was used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 in the amounts of $105.2 million and $101.0 million, respectively.  Capital expenditures totaled $107.4 million and $101.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  Capital expenditures in both years consisted principally of purchases and installation of assets for our accommodations and well site services segments, and in particular for accommodations investments made in support of Canadian oil sands developments and Australian mining developments.
 
We currently expect to spend a total of approximately $600 million to $650 million for capital expenditures during 2013 to expand our Canadian oil sands and Australian mining related accommodations facilities, to fund our other product and service offerings, and to upgrade our equipment and facilities.  Approximately two-thirds of our total estimated 2013 capital expenditures are expected to be spent in our accommodations segment.  We expect to fund these capital expenditures with cash available, internally generated funds and borrowings under our U.S., Canadian and Australian credit facilities.  The foregoing capital expenditure forecast does not include any funds for strategic acquisitions, which the Company could pursue depending on the economic environment in our industry and the availability of transactions at prices deemed to be attractive to the Company.  At March 31, 2013, we had cash totaling $199.2 million held by foreign subsidiaries, primarily in Canada and the United Kingdom, where, in the case of Canada, we have assumed indefinite reinvestment of earnings and where we have not recorded a U.S. tax liability upon the assumed repatriation of foreign earnings.  We believe these cash balances will be utilized for future investment outside the United States.

Net cash of $33.8 million was used in financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2013, primarily as a result of repayments under our Australian credit facility.  Net cash of $28.8 million was provided by financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2012, primarily as a result of borrowings under our revolving credit facilities.

We believe that cash on hand, cash flow from operations and available borrowings under our credit facilities will be sufficient to meet our liquidity needs in the coming twelve months.  If our plans or assumptions change, or are inaccurate, or if we make further acquisitions, we may need to raise additional capital.  Acquisitions have been, and our management believes acquisitions will continue to be, a key element of our business strategy.  The timing, size or success of any acquisition effort and the associated potential capital commitments are unpredictable and uncertain.  We may seek to fund all or part of any such efforts with proceeds from debt and/or equity issuances.  Our ability to obtain capital for additional projects to implement our growth strategy over the longer term will depend upon our future operating performance, financial condition and, more broadly, on the availability of equity and debt financing.  Capital availability will be affected by prevailing conditions in our industry, the global economy, the global financial markets and other factors, many of which are beyond our control.  In addition, such additional debt service requirements could be based on higher interest rates and shorter maturities and could impose a significant burden on our results of operations and financial condition, and the issuance of additional equity securities could result in significant dilution to stockholders.

Stock Repurchase Program.   On August 23, 2012, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized $200 million for the repurchase of the Company’s common stock, par value $.01 per share.  The authorization replaced the prior share repurchase authorization, which was set to expire on September 1, 2012.  As of March 31, 2013, the Company had approximately 55.0 million shares of common stock outstanding.  The Board of Directors’ authorization is limited in duration and expires on September 1, 2014.  Subject to applicable securities laws, such purchases will be at such times and in such amounts as the Company deems appropriate.  As of March 31, 2013, a total of $15.2 million of our stock (225,796 shares) had been repurchased under this program, leaving a total authorization of up to approximately $184.8 million remaining available under the program.  There were no stock repurchases under this program during the three months ended March 31, 2013.

Credit Facilities.   Our current bank credit facilities include a U.S. revolving credit facility, a U.S. term loan, a Canadian revolving facility, and a Canadian term loan.   The credit facilities are governed by an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated of December 10, 2010 (Credit Agreement) by and among the Company, PTI Group Inc., PTI Premium Camp Services, Ltd., the Lenders party thereto, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and U.S. collateral agent and Royal Bank of Canada, as Canadian administrative agent and Canadian collateral agent.   The U.S. and Canadian bank credit facilities contain total commitments available of $1.05 billion, including Total U.S. Commitments (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of U.S. $700 million (including $200 million in U.S. term loans), and Total Canadian Commitments (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of U.S. $350 million (including $100 million in Canadian term loans).  The maturity date of the Credit Agreement is December 10, 2015. The current principal balance of the term loans is repayable at a rate of 2.5% per quarter of the aggregate principal amount until maturity on December 10, 2015 when the remaining principal is due.  We currently have 19 lenders in our Credit Agreement with commitments ranging from $25.3 million to $150 million.  While we have not experienced, nor do we anticipate, any difficulties in obtaining funding from any of these lenders at this time, the lack of or delay in funding by a significant member of our banking group could negatively affect our liquidity position.  As of March 31, 2013, we had $246.6 million outstanding under the term loans of the Credit Agreement and an additional $44.3 million of outstanding letters of credit, leaving $705.7 million available to be drawn under the U.S. and Canadian facilities.
 
The Credit Agreement contains customary financial covenants and restrictions, including restrictions on our ability to declare and pay dividends.  Specifically, we must maintain an interest coverage ratio, defined as the ratio of consolidated EBITDA, to consolidated interest expense of at least 3.0 to 1.0 and our maximum leverage ratio, defined as the ratio of total debt to consolidated EBITDA, of no greater than 3.25 to 1.0 in 2012 and 3.0 to 1.0 thereafter.  Each of the factors considered in the calculations of these ratios are defined in the Credit Agreement.  EBITDA and consolidated interest as defined, exclude goodwill impairments, debt discount amortization and other non-cash charges.  As of March 31, 2013, we were in compliance with our debt covenants and expect to continue to be in compliance during 2013.  Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are secured by a pledge of substantially all of our assets and the assets of our subsidiaries.  Our obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by our significant subsidiaries.  Borrowings under the Credit Agreement accrue interest at a rate equal to either LIBOR or another benchmark interest rate (at our election) plus an applicable margin based on our leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement).  We must pay a quarterly commitment fee, based on our leverage ratio, on the unused commitments under the Credit Agreement.  During the first quarter of 2013, our applicable margin over LIBOR was 2.00%.  

On September 18, 2012, the Company’s Australian accommodations subsidiary, The MAC Services Group Pty Limited (The MAC), entered into a AUD$300 million revolving loan facility governed by a Syndicated Facility Agreement (The MAC Group Facility Agreement), between The MAC, J.P. Morgan Australia Limited, as Australian agent and security trustee, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as U.S. agent, and the lenders party thereto, which is guaranteed by the Company and The MAC’s subsidiaries.  We currently have 11 lenders in the MAC Group Facility  Agreement with commitments ranging from AUD$14 million to AUD$35 million.  The maturity date of The MAC Group Facility Agreement is December 10, 2015.  The MAC Group Facility Agreement replaced The MAC’s previous AUD$150 million revolving loan facility.  As of March 31, 2013, we had AUD$18   million outstanding under the Australian credit facility, leaving AUD$282 million available to be drawn under this facility.

5 1/8% Notes.   On December 21, 2012, the Company sold $400 million aggregate principal amount of 5 1/8% Notes through a private placement to qualified institutional buyers.

The 5 1/8% Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company, are guaranteed by our material U.S. subsidiaries (the Guarantors), bear interest at a rate of 5 1/8% per annum and mature on January 1, 2023.  At any time prior to January 15, 2016, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the 5 1/8% Notes at a redemption price of 105.125% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, with the proceeds of certain equity offerings.  Prior to January 15, 2018, the Company may redeem some or all of the 5 1/8% Notes for cash at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount plus an applicable make-whole premium and accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date.  On and after January 15, 2018, the Company may redeem some or all of the 5 1/8% Notes at redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount), plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date.  The optional redemption prices as a percentage of principal amount are as follows:

The Company utilized approximately $334 million of the net proceeds of the 5 1/8% Notes to repay borrowings under its U.S. credit facility.  The remaining net proceeds of approximately $61 million were utilized for general corporate purposes.

On December 21, 2012, in connection with the issuance of the 5 1/8% Notes, the Company entered into an Indenture (the 5 1/8% Notes Indenture) with the Guarantors and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as trustee.  The 5 1/8% Notes Indenture restricts the Company's ability and the ability of the Guarantors to: (i) incur additional debt; (ii) pay distributions on, redeem or repurchase equity interests; (iii) make certain investments; (iv) incur liens; (v) enter into transactions with affiliates; (vi) merge or consolidate with another company; and (vii) transfer and sell assets. These covenants are subject to a number of important exceptions and qualifications.  If at any time when the 5 1/8% Notes are rated investment grade by either Moody's Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor's Ratings Services and no Default (as defined in the 5 1/8% Notes Indenture) has occurred and is continuing, many of such covenants will terminate and the Company and its subsidiaries will cease to be subject to such covenants. The 5 1/8% Notes Indenture contains customary events of default.  As of March 31, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all covenants of the 5 1/8% Notes Indenture.
 
6 1/2% Notes.   On June 1, 2011, the Company sold $600 million aggregate principal amount of 6 1/2% Notes through a private placement to qualified institutional buyers.

The 6 1/2% Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company, are guaranteed by our Guarantors, bear interest at a rate of 6 1/2% per annum and mature on June 1, 2019.  At any time prior to June 1, 2014, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the 6 1/2% Notes at a redemption price of 106.5% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, with the proceeds of certain equity offerings. Prior to June 1, 2014, the Company may redeem some or all of the 6 1/2% Notes for cash at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount plus an applicable make-whole premium and accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. On and after June 1, 2014, the Company may redeem some or all of the 6 1/2% Notes at redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount), plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date.  The optional redemption prices as a percentage of principal amount are as follows:

The Company utilized approximately $515 million of the net proceeds of the 6 1/2% Note offering in June 2011 to repay borrowings under its U.S. and Canadian credit facilities.  The remaining net proceeds of approximately $75 million were utilized for general corporate purposes.

On June 1, 2011, in connection with the issuance of the 6 1/2% Notes, the Company entered into an Indenture (the 6 1/2% Notes Indenture) with the Guarantors and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as trustee.  The Indenture restricts the Company's ability and the ability of the Guarantors to: (i) incur additional debt; (ii) pay distributions on, redeem or repurchase equity interests; (iii) make certain investments; (iv) incur liens; (v) enter into transactions with affiliates; (vi) merge or consolidate with another company; and (vii) transfer and sell assets. These covenants are subject to a number of important exceptions and qualifications. If at any time when the 6 1/2% Notes are rated investment grade by either Moody's Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor's Ratings Services and no Default (as defined in the 6 1/2% Notes Indenture) has occurred and is continuing, many of such covenants will terminate and the Company and its subsidiaries will cease to be subject to such covenants. The 6 1/2% Notes Indenture contains customary events of default.  As of March 31, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all covenants of the 6 1/2% Notes Indenture.

Our total debt represented 33.2% of our combined total debt and stockholders’ equity at March 31, 2013 compared to 34.7% at December 31, 2012 and 36.0% at March 31, 2012

Critical Accounting Policies

For a discussion of the critical accounting policies and estimates that we use in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements, see “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2012 Form 10-K.  These estimates require significant judgments, assumptions and estimates.  We have discussed the development, selection and disclosure of these critical accounting policies and estimates with the audit committee of our board of directors. There have been no material changes to the judgments, assumptions and estimates, upon which our critical accounting estimates are based.
 
ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Our principal market risks are our exposure to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.

Interest Rate Risk

We have credit facilities that are subject to the risk of higher interest charges associated with increases in interest rates.  As of March 31, 2013, we had floating-rate obligations totaling approximately $265.3 million drawn under our credit facilities.  These floating-rate obligations expose us to the risk of increased interest expense in the event of increases in short-term interest rates. If floating interest rates increase by 1%, our consolidated interest expense would increase by a total of approximately $2.7 million annually based on our floating debt obligations as of March 31, 2013.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

Our operations are conducted in various countries around the world and we receive revenue from these operations in a number of different currencies. As such, our earnings are subject to movements in foreign currency exchange rates when transactions are denominated in (i) currencies other than the U.S. dollar, which is our functional currency, or (ii) the functional currency of our subsidiaries, which is not necessarily the U.S. dollar. In order to mitigate the effects of exchange rate risks in areas outside the U.S. (primarily in our offshore products segment), we generally pay a portion of our expenses in local currencies and a substantial portion of our contracts provide for collections from customers in U.S. dollars.  During the three months ended March 31, 2013, our reported foreign exchange gains were $1.4 million and are included in “Other operating (income) expense” in the Consolidated Statements of Income.  In order to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in currency exchange rates, we may enter into foreign exchange agreements with financial institutions.  As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we had outstanding foreign currency forward purchase contracts with notional amounts of $9.1 million and $12.4 million, respectively, hedging expected cash flows denominated in Euros.  We have recorded other comprehensive income of $0.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2013 as a result of this contract.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) of the Exchange Act.  Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Commission.  Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2013 at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

In January 2013, we completed the implementation of a new financial consolidation and reporting system in our Canadian accommodations business.  We believe the new software will enhance our internal controls over financial reporting, and we believe that we have taken the necessary steps to maintain appropriate internal control over financial reporting during this period of system change. We will continuously monitor controls through and around the system to provide reasonable assurance that controls are effective.

During the three months ended March 31, 2013, there were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) or in other factors, which have materially affected our internal control over financial reporting, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
 
PART II -- OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.   Legal Proceedings

We are a party to various pending or threatened claims, lawsuits and administrative proceedings seeking damages or other remedies concerning our commercial operations, products, employees and other matters, including occasional claims by individuals alleging exposure to hazardous materials as a result of our products or operations.  Some of these claims relate to matters occurring prior to our acquisition of businesses, and some relate to businesses we have sold.  In certain cases, we are entitled to indemnification from the sellers of businesses, and in other cases, we have indemnified the buyers of businesses from us.  Although we can give no assurance about the outcome of pending legal and administrative proceedings and the effect such outcomes may have on us, we believe that any ultimate liability resulting from the outcome of such proceedings, to the extent not otherwise provided for or covered by indemnity or insurance, will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors

“Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our 2012 Form 10-K includes a detailed discussion of our risk factors.  There have been no significant changes to our risk factors as set forth in our 2012 Form 10-K.  The risks described in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our 2012 Form 10-K are not the only risks we face.  Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or future results.

2-1

 
 
2.11
“Disabled” means a determination by the Administrator that the Participant is either (a) unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months, or (b) is, by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or last for a continuous period of not less than twelve months, receiving income replacement benefits for a period of not less than three months under an accident and health plan covering employees of the Employer.  A Participant will be considered Disabled if he is determined to be totally disabled by the Social Security Administration or the Railroad Retirement Board.

2.13
“Employer” means the Plan Sponsor and any other entity which is authorized by the Plan Sponsor to participate in and, in fact, does adopt the Plan.

“Related Employer” means the Employer and (a) any corporation that is a member of a controlled group of corporations as defined in Code Section 414(b) that includes the Employer and (b) any trade or business that is under common control as defined in Code Section 414(c) that includes the Employer.
 
 
2-2

 
 
2.22
Retirement” has the meaning specified in 6.01(f) of the Adoption Agreement.
 
2.23
Separation from Service” means the date that the Participant dies, retires or otherwise has a termination of employment with respect to all entities comprising the Related Employer.  A Separation from Service does not occur if the Participant is on military leave, sick leave or other bona fide leave of absence if the period of leave does not exceed six months or such longer period during which the Participant’s right to re-employment is provided by statute or contract.  If the period of leave exceeds six months and the Participant’s right to re-employment is not provided either by statute or contract, a Separation from Service will be deemed to have occurred on the first day following the six-month period.  If the period of leave is due to any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than six months, where the impairment causes the Participant to be unable to perform the duties of his or her position of employment or any substantially similar position of employment, a 29 month period of absence may be substituted for the six month period.
 
Whether a termination of employment has occurred is based on whether the facts and circumstances indicate that the Related Employer and the Participant reasonably anticipated that no further services would be performed after a certain date or that the level of bona fide services the Participant would perform after such date (whether as an employee or as an independent contractor) would permanently decrease to no more than 20 percent of the average level of bona fide services performed (whether as an employee or an independent contractor) over the immediately preceding 36 month period (or the full period of services to the Related Employer if the employee has been providing services to the Related Employer for less than 36 months).  If a Participant continues to provide services to a Related Employer in a capacity other than as an employee, the Participant will not be deemed to have a termination of employment if the Participant is providing services at an annual rate that is at least 50 percent of the services rendered by such individual, on average, during the immediately preceding 36 month period of employment (or such lesser period of employment) and the annual remuneration for such services is at least 50 percent of the average annual remuneration earned during the such 36 calendar months of employment (or such lesser period of employment).
 
An independent contractor is considered to have experienced a Separation from Service with the Related Employer upon the expiration of the contract (or, in the case of more than one contract, all contracts) under which services are performed for the Related Employer if the expiration constitutes a good-faith and complete termination of the contractual relationship.
 
 
2-3

 
 
If a Participant provides services as both an employee and an independent contractor of the Related Employer, the Participant must separate from service both as an employee and as an independent contractor to be treated as
having incurred a Separation from Service.  If a Participant ceases providing services as an independent contractor and begins providing services as an employee, or ceases providing services as an employee and begins providing services as an independent contractor, the Participant will not be considered to have experienced a Separation from Service until the Participant has ceased providing services in both capacities.
 
If a Participant provides services both as an employee and as a member of the board of directors of a corporate Related Employer (or an analogous position with respect to a noncorporate Related Employer), the services provided as a director are not taken into account in determining whether the Participant has incurred a Separation from Service as an employee for purposes of a nonqualified deferred compensation plan in which the Participant participates as an employee that is not aggregated under Code Section 409A with any plan in which the Participant participates as a director.
 
If a Participant provides services both as an employee and as a member of the board of directors of a corporate related Employer (or an analogous position with respect to a noncorporate Related Employer), the services provided as an employee are not taken into account in determining whether the Participant has experienced a Separation from Service as a director for purposes of a nonqualified deferred compensation plan in which the Participant participates as a director that is not aggregated under Code Section 409A with any plan in which the Participant participates as an employee.
 
All determinations of whether a Separation from Service has occurred will be made in a manner consistent with Code Section 409A and the final regulations thereunder.
 
2.24
“Unforeseeable Emergency” means a severe financial hardship of the Participant resulting from an illness or accident of the Participant, the Participant’s spouse, the Participant’s Beneficiary, or the Participant’s dependent (as defined in Code Section 152, without regard to Code section 152(b)(1), (b)(2) and (d)(1)(B); loss of the Participant’s property due to casualty; or other similar extraordinary and unforeseeable circumstances arising as a result of events beyond the control of the Participant.
 
 
2-4

 
 
2.25
“Valuation Date” means each business day of the Plan Year that the New York Stock Exchange is open.
 
2.26

2-5

 
 
ARTICLE 3 – PARTICIPATION


3.1
Participation.   The Participants in the Plan shall be those Directors and employees of the Employer who satisfy the requirements of Section 2.01 of the Adoption Agreement.
 
3.2
Termination of Participation.   The Administrator may terminate a Participant’s participation in the Plan in a manner consistent with Code Section 409A.  If the Employer terminates a Participant’s participation before the Participant experiences a Separation from Service the Participant’s vested Accounts shall be paid in accordance with the provisions of Article 9.
 
 
3-1

 
 
ARTICLE 4 – PARTICIPANT ELECTIONS


4.1
Deferral Agreement.   If permitted by the Plan Sponsor in accordance with Section 4.01 of the Adoption Agreement, each Eligible Employee and Director may elect to defer his Compensation within the meaning of Section 3.01 of the Adoption Agreement by executing in writing or electronically, a deferral agreement in accordance with rules and procedures established by the Administrator and the provisions of this Article 4.

A new deferral agreement must be timely executed for each Plan Year during which the Eligible Employee or Director desires to defer Compensation.  An Eligible Employee or Director who does not timely execute a deferral agreement shall be deemed to have elected zero deferrals of Compensation for such Plan Year.

A deferral agreement may be changed or revoked during the period specified by the Administrator.  Except as provided in Section 9.3 or in Section 4.01(c) of the Adoption Agreement, a deferral agreement becomes irrevocable at the close of the specified period.

4.2
Amount of Deferral.   An Eligible Employee or Director may elect to defer Compensation in any amount permitted by Section 4.01(a) of the Adoption Agreement.

4.3
Timing of Election to Defer.   Each Eligible Employee or Director who desires to defer Compensation otherwise payable during a Plan Year must execute and deliver to the Administrator in a method and time period prescribed by the Administrator a deferral agreement within the period preceding the Plan Year.  Each Eligible Employee who desires to defer Compensation that is a Bonus must execute a deferral agreement within the period preceding the Plan Year during which the Bonus is earned that is specified by the Administrator, except that if the Bonus can be treated as performance based compensation as described in Code Section 409A(a)(4)(B)(iii), the deferral agreement may be executed within the period specified by the Administrator, which period, in no event, shall end after the date which is six months prior to the end of the period during which the Bonus is earned, provided the Participant has performed services continuously from the later of the beginning of the performance period or the date the performance criteria are established through the date the Participant executed the deferral agreement and provided further that the compensation has not yet become ‘readily ascertainable’ with the meaning of Reg. Sec 1.409A-2(a)(8).  In addition, if the Compensation qualifies as ‘fiscal year compensation’ within the meaning of Reg. Sec. 1.409A -2(a)(6), the deferral agreement may be made not later than the end of the Employer’s taxable year immediately preceding the first taxable year of the Employer in which any services are performed for which such Compensation is payable.
 
 
4-1

 
 
Except as otherwise provided below, an employee who is classified or designated as an Eligible Employee during a Plan Year or a Director who is designated as eligible to participate during a Plan Year may elect to defer Compensation otherwise payable during the remainder of such Plan Year in accordance with the rules of this Section 4.3 by executing a deferral agreement within the thirty (30) day period beginning on the date the employee is classified or designated as an Eligible Employee or the date the Director is designated as eligible, whichever is applicable, if permitted by Section 4.01(b)(ii) of the Adoption Agreement.  If Compensation is based on a specified performance period that begins before the Eligible Employee or Director executes his deferral agreement, the election will be deemed to apply to the portion of such Compensation equal to the total amount of Compensation for the performance period multiplied by the ratio of the number of days remaining in the performance period after the election becomes irrevocable and effective over the total number of days in the performance period.  The rules of this paragraph shall not apply unless the Eligible Employee or Director can be treated as initially eligible in accordance with Reg. Sec. 1.409A-2(a)(7).

4.4
Election of Payment Schedule and Form of Payment.

All elections of a payment schedule and a form of payment will be made in accordance with rules and procedures established by the Administrator and the provisions of this Section 4.4.

ARTICLE 8 – RIGHT TO BENEFITS


8.1
Vesting.   A Participant, at all times, has a 100% nonforfeitable interest in the amounts credited to his Account attributable to his elective deferrals made in accordance with Section 4.1.

A Participant’s right to the amounts credited to his Account attributable to Employer contributions made in accordance with Article 5 shall be determined in accordance with the relevant schedule and provisions in Section 7.01 of the Adoption Agreement. Upon a Separation from Service and after application of the provisions of Section 7.01 of the Adoption Agreement, the Participant shall forfeit the nonvested portion of his Account.

8.2
Death.   The Plan Sponsor may elect to accelerate vesting upon the death of the Participant in accordance with Section 7.01(c) of the Adoption Agreement and/or to accelerate distributions upon Death in accordance with Section 6.01(b) or Section 6.01(d) of the Adoption Agreement.  If the Plan Sponsor does not elect to accelerate distributions upon death in accordance with Section 6.01(b) or Section 6.01(d) of the Adoption Agreement, the vested amount credited to the Participant’s Account will be paid in accordance with the provisions of Article 9.

 
A Participant may designate a Beneficiary or Beneficiaries, or change any prior designation of Beneficiary or Beneficiaries in accordance with rules and procedures established by the Administrator.

A copy of the death notice or other sufficient documentation must be filed with and approved by the Administrator.  If upon the death of the Participant there is, in the opinion of the Administrator, no designated Beneficiary for part or all of the Participant’s vested Account, such amount will be paid to his estate (such estate shall be deemed to be the Beneficiary for purposes of the Plan) in accordance with the provisions of Article 9.

8.3

8-1

 
 
ARTICLE 9 – DISTRIBUTION OF BENEFITS

 
9.1
Amount of Benefits.   The vested amount credited to a Participant’s Account as determined under Articles 6, 7 and 8 shall determine and constitute the basis for the value of benefits payable to the Participant under the Plan.
 
9.2
Method and Timing of Distributions.   Except as otherwise provided in this Article 9, distributions under the Plan shall be made in accordance with the elections made or deemed made by the Participant under Article 4.  Subject to the provisions of Section 9.6 requiring a six month delay for certain distributions to Key Employees, distributions following a payment event shall commence at the time specified in Section 6.01(a) of the Adoption Agreement.  If permitted by Section 6.01(g) of the Adoption Agreement, a Participant may elect, at least twelve months before a scheduled distribution event, to delay the payment date for a minimum period of sixty months from the originally scheduled date of payment (or, in the case of installment payments, from the date the first amount was scheduled to be paid).  The distribution election change must be made in accordance with procedures and rules established by the Administrator.  The Participant may, at the same time the date of payment is deferred, change the form of payment but such change in the form of payment may not effect an acceleration of payment in violation of Code Section 409A or the provisions of Reg. Sec. 1.409A-2(b).  For purposes of this Section 9.2, a series of installment payments is always treated as a single payment and not as a series of separate payments.
 
9.3
Unforeseeable Emergency.   A Participant may request a distribution due to an Unforeseeable Emergency if the Plan Sponsor has elected to permit Unforeseeable Emergency withdrawals under Section 8.01(a) of the Adoption Agreement.  The request must be in writing and must be submitted to the Administrator along with evidence that the circumstances constitute an Unforeseeable Emergency. The Administrator has the discretion to require whatever evidence it deems necessary to determine whether a distribution is warranted, and may require the Participant to certify that the need cannot be met from other sources reasonably available to the Participant.   Whether a Participant has incurred an Unforeseeable Emergency will be determined by the Administrator on the basis of the relevant facts and circumstances in its sole discretion, but, in no event, will an Unforeseeable Emergency be deemed to exist if the hardship can be relieved:  (a) through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise, (b) by liquidation of the Participant’s assets to the extent such liquidation would not itself cause severe financial hardship, or (c) by cessation of deferrals under the Plan.  A distribution due to an Unforeseeable Emergency must be limited to the amount reasonably necessary to satisfy the emergency need and may include any amounts necessary to pay any federal, state, foreign or local income taxes and penalties reasonably anticipated to result from the distribution.  The distribution will be made in the form of a single lump sum cash payment.  If permitted by Section 8.01(b) of the Adoption Agreement, a Participant’s deferral elections for the remainder of the Plan Year will be cancelled upon a withdrawal due to an Unforeseeable Emergency.  If the payment of all or any portion of the Participant’s vested Account is being delayed in accordance with Section 9.6 at the time he experiences an Unforeseeable Emergency, the amount being delayed shall not be subject to the provisions of this Section 9.3 until the expiration of the six month period of delay required by section 9.6.
 
 
9-1

 
 
9.4
Payment Election Overrides.   If the Plan Sponsor has elected one or more payment election overrides in accordance with Section 6.01(d) of the Adoption Agreement, the following provisions apply.  Upon the occurrence  of the first event selected by the Plan Sponsor, the remaining vested amount credited to the Participant’s Account shall be paid in the form designated to the Participant or his Beneficiary regardless of whether the Participant had made different elections of time and /or form of payment or whether the Participant was receiving installment payments at the time of the event.
 
9.5
Cashouts Of Amounts Not Exceeding Stated Limit.   If the vested amount credited to the Participant’s Account does not exceed the limit established for this purpose by the Plan Sponsor in Section 6.01(e) of the Adoption Agreement at the time he separates from service with the Related Employer for any reason, the Employer shall distribute such amount to the Participant at the time specified in Section 6.01(a) of the Adoption Agreement in a single lump sum cash payment following such termination regardless of whether the Participant had made different elections of time or form of payment as to the vested amount credited to his Account or whether the Participant was receiving installments at the time of such termination.  A Participant’s Account, for purposes of this Section 9.5, shall include any amounts described in Section 1.3.
 
9.6
Required Delay in Payment to Key Employees .  Except as otherwise provided in this Section 9.6, a distribution made on account of Separation from Service (or Retirement, if applicable) to a Participant who is a Key Employee as of the date of his Separation from Service (or Retirement, if applicable) shall not be made before the date which is six months after the Separation from Service (or Retirement, if applicable).  If payments to a Key Employee are delayed in accordance with this Section 9.6, the payments to which the Key Employee would otherwise have been entitled during the six month period shall be accumulated and paid in a single lump sum at the time specified in Section 6.01(a) of the Adoption Agreement after the six month period elapses.
 
 
9-2

 
 
(a) A Participant is treated as a Key Employee if (i) he is employed by a Related Employer any of whose stock is publicly traded on an established securities market, and (ii) he satisfies the requirements of Code Section 416(i)(1)(A)(i), (ii) or (iii), determined without regard to Code Section 416(i)(5), at any time during the twelve month period ending on the Identification Date.
 
(b) A Participant who is a Key Employee on an Identification Date shall be treated as a Key Employee for purposes of the six month delay in distributions for the twelve month period beginning on the first day of a month no later than the fourth month following the Identification Date.  The Identification Date and the effective date of the delay in distributions shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.06 of the Adoption Agreement.
 
(c) The Plan Sponsor may elect to apply an alternative method to identify Participants who will be treated as Key Employees for purposes of the six month delay in distributions if the method satisfies each of the following requirements.  The alternative method is reasonably designed to include all Key Employees, is an objectively determinable standard providing no direct or indirect election to any Participant regarding its application, and results in either all Key Employees or no more than 200 Key Employees being identified in the class as of any date.  Use of an alternative method that satisfies the requirements of this Section 9.6(c ) will not be treated as a change in the time and form of payment for purposes of Reg. Sec. 1.409A-2(b).

( d) The six month delay does not apply to payments described in Section 9.9(a),(b) or (d) or to payments that occur after the death of the Participant.  If the payment of all or any portion of the Participant’s vested Account is being delayed in accordance with this Section 9.6 at the time he incurs a Disability which would otherwise require a distribution under the terms of the Plan, no amount shall be paid until the expiration of the six month period of delay required by this Section 9.6.

9.7
Change in Control.   If the Plan Sponsor has elected to permit distributions upon a Change in Control, the following provisions shall apply.  A distribution made upon a Change in Control will be made at the time specified in Section 6.01(a) of the Adoption Agreement in the form elected by the Participant in accordance with the procedures described in Article 4.  Alternatively, if the Plan Sponsor has elected in accordance with Section 11.02 of the Adoption Agreement to require distributions upon a Change in Control, the Participant’s remaining vested Account shall be paid to the Participant or the Participant’s Beneficiary at the time specified in Section 6.01(a) of the Adoption Agreement as a single lump sum payment.  A Change in Control, for purposes of the Plan, will occur upon a change in the ownership of the Plan Sponsor, a change in the effective control of the Plan Sponsor or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Plan Sponsor, but only if elected by the Plan Sponsor in Section 11.03 of the Adoption Agreement.  The Plan Sponsor, for this purpose, includes any corporation identified in this Section 9.7.  All distributions made in accordance with this Section 9.7 are subject to the provisions of Section 9.6.

 
If a Participant continues to make deferrals in accordance with Article 4 after he has received a distribution due to a Change in Control, the residual amount payable to the Participant shall be paid at the time and in the form specified in the elections he makes in accordance with Article 4 or upon his death or Disability as provided in Article 8.

 
Whether a Change in Control has occurred will be determined by the Administrator in accordance with the rules and definitions set forth in this Section 9.7.  A distribution to the Participant will be treated as occurring upon a Change in Control if the Plan Sponsor terminates the Plan in accordance with Section 10.2 and distributes the Participant’s benefits within twelve months of a Change in Control as provided in Section 10.3.

 
(a)
Relevant Corporations.   To constitute a Change in Control for purposes of the Plan, the event must relate to (i) the corporation for whom the Participant is performing services at the time of the Change in Control, (ii) the corporation that is liable for the payment of the Participant’s benefits under the Plan (or all corporations liable if more than one corporation is liable) but only if either the deferred compensation is attributable to the performance of services by the Participant for such corporation (or corporations) or there is a bona fide business purpose for such corporation (or corporations) to be liable for such payment and, in either case, no significant purpose of making such corporation (or corporations) liable for such payment is the avoidance of federal income tax, or (iii) a corporation that is a majority shareholder of a corporation identified in (i) or (ii), or any corporation in a chain of corporations in which each corporation is a majority shareholder of another corporation in the chain, ending in a corporation identified in (i) or (ii).  A majority shareholder is defined as a shareholder owning more than fifty percent (50%) of the total fair market value and voting power of such corporation.
 
 
9-4

 
 
 
(b)
Stock Ownership.   Code Section 318(a) applies for purposes of determining stock ownership.  Stock underlying a vested option is considered owned by the individual who owns the vested option (and the stock underlying an unvested option is not considered owned by the individual who holds the unvested option).  If, however, a vested option is exercisable for stock that is not substantially vested (as defined by Treasury Regulation Section 1.83-3(b) and (j)) the stock underlying the option is not treated as owned by the individual who holds the option.

 
(c)
Change in the Ownership of a Corporation.   A change in the ownership of a corporation occurs on the date that any one person or more than one person acting as a group, acquires ownership of stock of the corporation that, together with stock held by such person or group, constitutes more than fifty percent (50%) of the total fair market value or total voting power of the stock of such corporation.  If any one person or more than one person acting as a group is considered to own more than fifty percent (50%) of the total fair market value or total voting power of the stock of a corporation, the acquisition of additional stock by the same person or persons is not considered to cause a change in the ownership of the corporation (or to cause a change in the effective control of the corporation as discussed below in Section 9.7(d)).  An increase in the percentage of stock owned by any one person, or persons acting as a group, as a result of a transaction in which the corporation acquires its stock in exchange for property will be treated as an acquisition of stock.  Section 9.7(c) applies only when there is a transfer of stock of a corporation (or issuance of stock of a corporation) and stock in such corporation remains outstanding after the transaction.  For purposes of this Section 9.7(c), persons will not be considered to be acting as a group solely because they purchase or own stock of the same corporation at the same time or as a result of a public offering.  Persons will, however, be considered to be acting as a group if they are owners of a corporation that enters into a merger, consolidation, purchase or acquisition of stock, or similar business transaction with the corporation.  If a person, including an entity, owns stock in both corporations that enter into a merger, consolidation, purchase or acquisition of stock, or similar transaction, such shareholder is considered to be acting as a group with other shareholders only with respect to ownership in that corporation prior to the transaction giving rise to the change and not with respect to the ownership interest in the other corporation.
 
 
9-5

 
 
 
(d)
Change in the effective control of a corporation.   A change in the effective control of a corporation occurs on the date that either (i) any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires (or has acquired during the twelve month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or persons) ownership of stock of the corporation possessing thirty-five percent (35%) or more of the total voting power of the stock of such corporation, or (ii) a majority of members of the corporation’s board of directors is replaced during any twelve month period by directors whose appointment or election is not endorsed by a majority of the members of the corporation’s board of directors prior to the date of the appointment or election, provided that for purposes of this paragraph (ii), the term corporation refers solely to the relevant corporation identified in Section 9.7(a) for which no other corporation is a majority shareholder for purposes of Section 9.7(a).  In the absence of an event described in Section 9.7(d)(i) or (ii), a change in the effective control of a corporation will not have occurred.  A change in effective control may also occur in any transaction in which either of the two corporations involved in the transaction has a change in the ownership of such corporation as described in Section 9.7(c) or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of such corporation as described in Section 9.7(e).  If any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, is considered to effectively control a corporation within the meaning of this Section 9.7(d), the acquisition of additional control of the corporation by the same person or persons is not considered to cause a change in the effective control of the corporation or to cause a change in the ownership of the corporation within the meaning of Section 9.7(c).  For purposes of this Section 9.7(d), persons will or will not be considered to be acting as a group in accordance with rules similar to those set forth in Section 9.7(c) with the following exception.  If a person, including an entity, owns stock in both corporations that enter into a merger, consolidation, purchase or acquisition of stock, or similar transaction, such shareholder is considered to be acting as a group with other shareholders in a corporation only with respect to the ownership in that corporation prior to the transaction giving rise to the change and not with respect to the ownership interest in the other corporation.

 
(e)
Change in the ownership of a substantial portion of a corporation’s assets.   A change in the ownership of a substantial portion of a corporation’s assets occurs on the date that any one person, or more than one person acting as a group (as determined in accordance with rules similar to those set forth in Section 9.7(d)), acquires (or has acquired during the twelve month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or persons) assets from the corporation that have a total gross fair market value equal to or more than eighty percent (80%) of the total gross fair market value of all of the assets of the corporation immediately prior to such acquisition or acquisitions.  For this purpose, gross fair market value means the value of the assets of the corporation or the value of the assets being disposed of determined without regard to any liabilities associated with such assets.  There is no Change in Control event under this Section 9.7(e) when there is a transfer to an entity that is controlled by the shareholders of the transferring corporation immediately after the transfer.  A transfer of assets by a corporation is not treated as a change in ownership of such assets if the assets are transferred to (i) a shareholder of the corporation (immediately before the asset transfer) in exchange for or with respect to its stock, (ii) an entity, fifty percent (50%) or more of the total value or voting power of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by the corporation, (iii) a person, or more than one person acting as a group, that owns, directly or indirectly, fifty percent (50%) or more of the total value or voting power of all the outstanding stock of the corporation, or (iv) an entity, at least fifty (50%) of the total value or voting power of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by a person described in Section 9.7(e)(iii).  For purposes of the foregoing, and except as otherwise provided, a person’s status is determined immediately after the transfer of assets.
 
 
9-6

 
 
9.8
Permissible Delays in Payment.   Distributions may be delayed beyond the date payment would otherwise occur in accordance with the provisions of Articles 8 and 9 in any of the following circumstances as long as the Employer treats all payments to similarly situated Participants on a reasonably consistent basis.
 
 
(a)
The Employer may delay payment if it reasonably anticipates that its deduction with respect to such payment would be limited or eliminated by the application of Code Section 162(m).  Payment must be made during the Participant’s first taxable year in which the Employer reasonably anticipates, or should reasonably anticipate, that if the payment is made during such year the deduction of such payment will not be barred by the application of Code Section 162(m) or during the period beginning with the Participant’s Separation from Service and ending on the later of the last day of the Employer’s taxable year in which the Participant separates from service or the 15th day of the third month following the Participant’s Separation from Service.  If a scheduled payment to a Participant is delayed in accordance with this Section 9.8(a), all scheduled payments to the Participant that could be delayed in accordance with this Section 9.8(a) will also be delayed.
 
 
9-7

 
 
 
(b)
The Employer may also delay payment if it reasonably anticipates that the making of the payment will violate federal securities laws or other applicable laws provided payment is made at the earliest date on which the Employer reasonably anticipates that the making of the payment will not cause such violation.

 
(c)
The Employer reserves the right to amend the Plan to provide for a delay in payment upon such other events and conditions as the Secretary of the Treasury may prescribe in generally applicable guidance published in the Internal Revenue Bulletin.
 
9.9
Permitted Acceleration of Payment .   The Employer may permit acceleration of the time or schedule of any payment or amount scheduled to be paid pursuant to a payment under the Plan provided such acceleration would be permitted by the provisions of Reg. Sec. 1.409A-3(j)(4), and not otherwise excluded by the Adoption Agreement, including the following events:
 
 
(a)
Domestic Relations Order.   A payment may be accelerated if such payment is made to an alternate payee pursuant to and following the receipt and qualification of a domestic relations order as defined in Code Section 414(p).
 
 
(b)
Compliance with Ethics Agreements and Legal Requirements.   A payment may be accelerated as may be necessary to comply with ethics agreements with the Federal government or as may be reasonably necessary to avoid the violation of Federal, state, local or foreign ethics law or conflicts of laws, in accordance with the requirements of Code Section 409A.
 
 
(c)
De Minimis Amounts.   A payment will be accelerated if (i) the amount of the payment is not greater than the applicable dollar amount under Code Section 402(g)(1)(B), (ii) at the time the payment is made the amount constitutes the Participant’s entire interest under the Plan and all other plans that are aggregated with the Plan under Reg. Sec. 1.409A-1(c)(2).
 
 
(d)
FICA Tax.   A payment may be accelerated to the extent required to pay the Federal Insurance Contributions Act tax imposed under Code Sections 3101, 3121(a) and 3121(v)(2) of the Code with respect to compensation deferred under the Plan (the “FICA Amount”).  Additionally, a payment may be accelerated to pay the income tax on wages imposed under Code Section 3401 of the Code on the FICA Amount and to pay the additional income tax at source on wages attributable to the pyramiding Code Section 3401 wages and taxes.  The total payment under this subsection (d) may not exceed the aggregate of the FICA Amount and the income tax withholding related to the FICA Amount.
 
 
9-8

 
 
 
(e)
Section 409A Additional Tax.   A payment may be accelerated if the Plan fails to meet the requirements of Code Section 409A; provided that such payment may not exceed the amount required to be included in income as a result of the failure to comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A.
 
 
(f)
Offset.   A payment may be accelerated in the Employer’s discretion as satisfaction of a debt of the Participant to the Employer, where such debt is incurred in the ordinary course of the service relationship between the Participant and the Employer, the entire amount of the reduction in any of the Employer’s taxable years does not exceed $5,000, and the reduction is made at the same time and in the same amount as the debt otherwise would have been due and collected from the Participant.
 
 
(g)
Other Events.   A payment may be accelerated in the Administrator’s discretion in connection with such other events and conditions as permitted by Code Section 409A.

ARTICLE 10 – AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION


10.1
Amendment by Plan Sponsor .   The Plan Sponsor reserves the right to amend the Plan (for itself and each Employer) through action of its Board of Directors.  No amendment can directly or indirectly deprive any current or former Participant or Beneficiary of all or any portion of his Account which had accrued and vested prior to the amendment.

10.2
Plan Termination Following Change in Control or Corporate Dissolution.   If so elected by the Plan Sponsor in 11.01 of the Adoption Agreement, the Plan Sponsor reserves the right to terminate the Plan and distribute all amounts credited to all Participant Accounts within the 30 days preceding or the twelve months following a Change in Control as determined in accordance with the rules set forth in Section 9.7. For this purpose, the Plan will be treated as terminated only if all agreements, methods, programs and other arrangements sponsored by the Related Employer immediately after the Change in Control which are treated as a single plan under Reg. Sec. 1.409A-1(c)(2) are also terminated so that all participants under the Plan and all similar arrangements are required to receive all amounts deferred under the terminated arrangements within twelve months of the date the Plan Sponsor irrevocably takes all necessary action to terminate the arrangements. In addition, the Plan Sponsor reserves the right to terminate the Plan within twelve months of a corporate dissolution taxed under Code Section 331 or with the approval of a bankruptcy court pursuant to 11 U. S. C. Section 503(b)(1)(A) provided that amounts deferred under the Plan are included in the gross incomes of Participants in the latest of (a) the calendar year in which the termination and liquidation occurs, (b) the first calendar year in which the amount is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, or (c) the first calendar year in which payment is administratively practicable.

10.3
Other Plan Terminations.   The Plan Sponsor retains the discretion to terminate the Plan if (a) all arrangements sponsored by the Plan Sponsor that would be aggregated with any terminated arrangement under  Code Section 409A and Reg.

Claims and Review Procedures.
 
 
(a)
Claims Procedure.

If any person believes he is being denied any rights or benefits under the Plan, such person may file a claim in writing with the Administrator.  If any such claim is wholly or partially denied, the Administrator will notify such person of its decision in writing.  Such notification will contain (i) specific reasons for the denial, (ii) specific reference to pertinent Plan provisions, (iii) a description of any additional material or information necessary for such person to perfect such claim and an explanation of why such material or information is necessary, and (iv) a description of the Plan’s review procedures and the time limits applicable to such procedures, including a statement of the person’s right to bring a civil action  following an adverse decision on review.  Such notification will be given within 90 days (45 days in the case of a claim regarding Disability) after the claim is received by the Administrator.  The Administrator may extend the period for providing the notification by 90 days (30 days in the case of a claim regarding Disability) if special circumstances require an extension of time for processing the claim and if written notice of such extension and circumstance is given to such person within the initial 90 day period (45 day period in the case of a claim regarding Disability).  If such notification is not given within such period, the claim will be considered denied as of the last day of such period and such person may request a review of his claim.
 
 
(b)
Review Procedure.

Within 60 days (180 days in the case of a claim regarding Disability) after the date on which a person receives a written notification of denial of claim (or, if written notification is not provided, within 60 days (180 days in the case of a claim regarding Disability) of the date denial is considered to have occurred), such person (or his duly authorized representative) may (i) file a written request with the Administrator for a review of his denied claim and of pertinent documents and (ii) submit written issues and comments to the Administrator.  The Administrator will notify such person of its decision in writing.  Such notification will be written in a manner calculated to be understood by such person and will contain specific reasons for the decision as well as specific references to pertinent Plan provisions.  The notification will explain that the person is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to and copies of all pertinent documents and has the right to bring a civil action following an adverse decision on review.  The decision on review will be made within 60 days (45 days in the case of a claim regarding Disability).  The Administrator may extend the period for making the decision on review by 60 days (45 days in the case of a claim regarding Disability) if special circumstances require an extension of time for processing the request such as an election by the Administrator to hold a hearing, and if written notice of such extension and circumstances is given to such person within the initial 60-day period (45 days in the case of a claim regarding Disability).  If the decision on review is not made within such period, the claim will be considered denied.

ARTICLE 13 – MISCELLANEOUS


13.1
Unsecured General Creditor of the Employer .   Participants and their Beneficiaries, heirs, successors and assigns shall have no legal or equitable rights, interests or claims in any property or assets of the Employer.  For purposes of the payment of benefits under the Plan, any and all of the Employer’s assets shall be, and shall remain, the general, unpledged, unrestricted assets of the Employer.  Each Employer's obligation under the Plan shall be merely that of an unfunded and unsecured promise to pay money in the future.
 
13.2
Employer’s Liability .   Each Employer’s liability for the payment of benefits under the Plan shall be defined only by the Plan and by the deferral agreements entered into between a Participant and the Employer.  An Employer shall have no obligation or liability to a Participant under the Plan except as provided by the Plan and a deferral agreement or agreements.  An Employer shall have no liability to Participants employed by other Employers.
 
13.3
Limitation of Rights .   Neither the establishment of the Plan, nor any amendment thereof, nor the creation of any fund or account, nor the payment of any benefits, will be construed as giving to the Participant or any other person any legal or equitable right against the Employer, the Plan or the Administrator, except as provided herein; and in no event will the terms of employment or service of the Participant be modified or in any way affected hereby.
 
13.4
Anti-Assignment .   Except as may be necessary to fulfill a domestic relations order within the meaning of Code Section 414(p), none of the benefits or rights of a Participant or any Beneficiary of a Participant shall be subject to the claim of any creditor.  In particular, to the fullest extent permitted by law, all such benefits and rights shall be free from attachment, garnishment, or any other legal or equitable process available to any creditor of the Participant and his or her Beneficiary.  Neither the Participant nor his or her Beneficiary shall have the right to alienate, anticipate, commute, pledge, encumber, or assign any of the payments which he or she may expect to receive, contingently or otherwise, under the Plan, except the right to designate a Beneficiary to receive death benefits provided hereunder.  Notwithstanding the preceding, the benefit payable from a Participant’s Account may be reduced, at the discretion of the administrator, to satisfy any debt or liability to the Employer.
 
13.5
Facility of Payment .   If the Administrator determines, on the basis of medical reports or other evidence satisfactory to the Administrator, that the recipient of any benefit payments under the Plan is incapable of handling his affairs by reason of minority, illness, infirmity or other incapacity, the Administrator may direct the Employer to disburse such payments to a person or institution designated by a court which has jurisdiction over such recipient or a person or institution otherwise having the legal authority under State law for the care and control of such recipient. The receipt by such person or institution of any such payments therefore, and any such payment to the extent thereof, shall discharge the liability of the Employer, the Plan and the Administrator for the payment of benefits hereunder to such recipient.
 
 
- 1 -

 
 
13.6
Notices .   Any notice or other communication to the Employer or Administrator in connection with the Plan shall be deemed delivered in writing if addressed to the Plan Sponsor at the address specified in Section 1.03 of the Adoption Agreement and if either actually delivered at said address or, in the case or a letter, 5 business days shall have elapsed after the same shall have been deposited in the United States mails, first-class postage prepaid and registered or certified.
 
13.7
Tax Withholding .   If the Employer concludes that tax is owing with respect to any deferral or payment hereunder, the Employer shall withhold such amounts from any payments due the Participant or from amounts deferred, as permitted by law, or otherwise make appropriate arrangements with the Participant or his Beneficiary for satisfaction of such obligation.  Tax, for purposes of this Section 13.7 means any federal, state, local or any other governmental income tax, employment or payroll tax, excise tax, or any other tax or assessment owing with respect to amounts deferred, any earnings thereon, and any payments made to Participants under the Plan.
 
13.8
Indemnification . (a) Each Indemnitee (as defined in Section 13.8(e)) shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Employer for all actions taken by him and for all failures to take action (regardless of the date of any such action or failure to take action), to the fullest extent permitted by the law of the jurisdiction in which the Employer is incorporated, against all expense, liability, and loss (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, taxes, penalties, and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by the Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding (as defined in Subsection (e)).  No indemnification pursuant to this Section shall be made, however, in any case where (1) the act or failure to act giving rise to the claim for indemnification is determined by a court to have constituted willful misconduct or recklessness or (2) there is a settlement to which the Employer does not con­sent.
 
(b)   The right to indemnification provided in this Section shall include the right to have the expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in defending any Proceeding paid by the Employer in advance of the final disposition of the Proceeding, to the full­est extent permitted by the law of the jurisdiction in which the Employer is incorporated; provided that, if such law requires, the payment of such expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in advance of the final disposition of a Proceeding shall be made only on delivery to the Employer of an undertaking, by or on behalf of the Indemnitee, to repay all amounts so advanced without interest if it shall ultimately be determined that the Indemnitee is not en­titled to be indemnified under this Section or otherwise.
 
(c)  Indemnification pursuant to this Section shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be such and shall inure to the benefit of his heirs, executors, and admin­istrators.  The Employer agrees that the undertakings made in this Section shall be binding on its successors or assigns and shall survive the termination, amendment or restatement of the Plan.
 
 
- 2 -

 
 
(d)  The foregoing right to indemnification shall be in addition to such other rights as the Indemnitee may enjoy as a matter of law or by reason of insurance coverage of any kind and is in addition to and not in lieu of any rights to indemnifi­cation to which the Indemnitee may be entitled pursuant to the by-laws of the Employer.
 
(e)  For the purposes of this Section, the fol­lowing definitions shall apply:
 
(1)  "Indemnitee" shall mean each person serving as an Administrator (or any other person who is an employee, director, or officer of the Employer) who was or is a party to, or is threatened to be made a party to, or is otherwise involved in, any Proceeding, by reason of the fact that he is or was performing administrative functions under the Plan.
 
(2)  "Proceeding" shall mean any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding (including, without limitation, an action, suit, or proceeding by or in the right of the Employer), whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative, or through arbitration.
 
13.9
Successors .   The provisions of the Plan shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Plan Sponsor, the Employer and their successors and assigns and the Participant and the Participant’s designated Beneficiaries.
 
13. 10
Disclaimer. It is the Plan Sponsor’s intention that the Plan comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A.  Neither the Plan Sponsor nor the Employer shall have any liability to any Participant should any provision of the Plan fail to satisfy the requirements of Code Section 409A.
 
13. 11
Governing Law .   The Plan will be construed, administered and enforced according to the laws of the State specified by the Plan Sponsor in Section 12.01 of the Adoption Agreement.

CANADIAN LONG TERM INCENTIVE PLAN
 
Employee: (Name)
 
Date of Award: (Date)
 
Number of Units Awarded: (Units)
 
Vesting Schedule:                  (Schedule)
 
The Plan is cash based and the value of your award will track the price of Oil States stock.  The “units” you are awarded do not represent actual shares of stock, but the right to receive a cash payment that is based on the value of Oil States stock on a date certain.  The awards vest annually over a three year period, one third each year.

On each vesting date, the value for that year is determined based on Oil States’ stock price, and the Company will send you a cash payment for that value, subject to your payment of all taxes and regular withholdings.  To be eligible to receive the payment, you must be employed by the Company on the vesting date of the award.
 
Example of how the Plan operates:
 
 
Ø
You are awarded 300 units on (Same as “Date of Award”)
 
 
Ø
One year later on (Day before “Date of Award”), 2014, if you are still employed by the Company, you would be eligible to receive a cash payment of 100 multiplied by the price of Oil States stock at the close of business on (Day before “Date of Award”),2014.  The value of your award will rise and fall with the value of the Oil States stock over the course of the vesting period, thereby aligning your interests with that of our shareholders.
 
 
Ø
On (Day before “Date of Award”) in 2015 and 2016, the other 200 units would vest, pro-rata and you would be eligible for a payment, conditioned upon being employed by the Company on the vesting date(s).
 
In the event of the death of a participant during the vesting period, all units would vest at the date of death and the participant’s estate would be paid the value of the units.
 
In the event that a participant becomes disabled, as defined in the Company’s Long Term Disability policy, the participant will still continue to be eligible for participation on the Plan, as long as the participate remains an employee of the Company.
 
In the event of retirement of a participant prior to a vesting date, all unvested units in the Plan are forfeited upon the date of retirement.
 
In the event of a change of control of Oil States International Inc., all units would vest upon the date of the Change of Control and the participant would be paid the value of the units as of the date of the Change of Control.

DEFERRED STOCK AGREEMENT


THIS AGREEMENT is made as of %%OPTION_DATE%-% (the “Effective Date”) between Oil States International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and %%FIRST_NAME%-% %%LAST_NAME%-% (“Employee”).

To carry out the purposes of The 2001 Equity Participation Plan of Oil States International, Inc. (the “Plan”), by affording Employee the opportunity to acquire shares of common stock of the Company (“Stock”), and in consideration of the mutual agreements and other matters set forth herein and in the Plan, the Company and Employee hereby agree as follows:

1.            Award of Deferred Stock Awards . Upon execution of this Agreement, the Company shall issue %%TOTAL_SHARE_GRANTED,’999,999,999’%-% Deferred Stock Awards and Dividend Equivalents to Employee.  Employee acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan, and agrees that this award of Deferred Stock Awards shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Plan, including future amendments thereto, if any, pursuant to the terms thereof, which Plan is incorporated herein by reference as a part of this Agreement.  In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall govern.

2.            Rights attaching to   Deferred Stock Awards . As used herein, the term “Deferred Stock Award” or “DSA” shall mean a right to acquire a share in the Company, upon the Forfeiture Restrictions contained herein being satisfied.  Until such time as the Forfeiture Restrictions cease to apply and shares delivered to Employee, Employee shall have no rights as a shareholder of the Company, no dividend rights, and no voting rights with respect of DSAs or any share underlying the DSAs or issuable in respect of such DSAs until such shares are actually issued to and held of record by the Participant.  No adjustment will be made for dividends or other rights of a holder for which the record date is prior to the date of issuance of the stock certificate or book entry evidencing such shares.

3.            Forfeiture Restrictions . The DSAs issued to Employee pursuant to this Agreement may not be sold, assigned, pledged, exchanged, hypothecated or otherwise transferred, encumbered or disposed of to the extent then subject to the Forfeiture Restrictions (as hereinafter defined), and in the event of termination of Employee’s employment with the Company for any reason (other than as provided below), automatically upon such termination Employee shall, for no consideration, forfeit to the Company all DSAs to the extent then subject to the Forfeiture Restrictions.  The prohibition against transfer and the obligation to forfeit and surrender DSAs to the Company upon termination of employment are herein referred to as “Forfeiture Restrictions,” and the DSAs which are then subject to the Forfeiture Restrictions are herein sometimes referred to as “Restricted DSAs.”  The Forfeiture Restrictions shall be binding upon and enforceable against any transferee of the DSAs.  The Forfeiture Restrictions shall lapse as to DSAs issued to Employee pursuant to this Agreement as follows:  (a) with respect to 25% of the DSAs, on the first anniversary of the Effective Date, (b) with respect to 50% of the DSAs, on the second anniversary of the Effective Date, (c) with respect to 75% of the DSAs, on the third anniversary of the Effective Date, and (d) with respect to 100% of the DSAs, on the fourth anniversary of the Effective Date.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Forfeiture Restrictions shall lapse as to all of the DSAs on (i) the date a Change of Control occurs or (ii) the termination of Employee’s employment due to his death or a disability that entitles Employee to receive benefits under a long term disability plan of the Company.
 
 
 

 
 
4.            Delivery of stock . Upon Employee remaining in continued employment up until the Forfeiture Conditions being satisfied, the Company shall deliver to Employee one share in the Company for each DSA that is no longer a Restricted DSA within 30 days of the DSA ceasing to be a Restricted DSA.  Upon shares being delivered, the Company will cancel the relevant DSAs.

5.            Certificates . A certificate evidencing the DSAs shall be issued by the Company in Employee’s name.

6.            Consideration . It is understood that the consideration for the issuance of DSAs shall be Employee’s agreement to render future services to the Company, which services shall have a value not less than the par value of the shares deliverable in respect of such DSAs.

7.            Dividend equivalents . Where the Company pays a dividend, Employee shall receive a cash payment equivalent to the dividend paid on each share of common stock in respect of each DSA during the period between the date each Deferred Stock Award is granted, and the date such Deferred Stock Award is exercised, vests or expires.


8.            Withholding of Tax . To the extent that the receipt of the DSAs and/or shares of unrestricted Stock results in compensation income to Employee for income tax purposes, Employee shall deliver to the Company at the time of such receipt, such amount of money or shares of unrestricted Stock as the Company may require to meet its withholding obligation (if any) under applicable tax laws or regulations, and, if Employee fails to do so, the Company is authorized to withhold from any cash or Stock remuneration then or thereafter payable to Employee any tax required to be withheld by reason of such resulting compensation income.  To the extent that the lapse of any Forfeiture Restrictions results in compensation income to Employee for income tax purposes and Employee has not otherwise made arrangements to satisfy its withholding obligation (if any), the Company shall withhold from the unrestricted Stock such shares as the Company may require to meet its withholding obligations under applicable tax laws or regulations.

9.            Status of DSAs . Employee agrees that the DSAs will not be sold or otherwise disposed of in any manner that would constitute a violation of any applicable federal or state securities laws.  Employee also agrees (i) that the certificates representing the DSAs may bear such legend or legends as the Committee deems appropriate in order to ensure compliance with applicable securities laws, (ii) that the Company may refuse to award the DSAs or register the transfer of shares on the stock transfer records of the Company if such proposed transfer would in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company constitute a violation of any applicable securities law and (iii) that the Company may give related instructions to its transfer agent, if any, to stop registration of the transfer of shares.

10.            Employment Relationship .  For purposes of this Agreement, Employee shall be considered to be in the employment of the Company as long as Employee remains an employee of the Company, any parent or subsidiary entity of the Company or any successor to any of the foregoing.  Any question as to whether and when there has been a termination of such employment, and the cause of such termination, shall be determined by the Committee, and its determination shall be final.

11.            Committee’s Powers .  No provision contained in this Agreement shall in any way terminate, modify or alter, or be construed or interpreted as terminating, modifying or altering any of the powers, rights or authority vested in the Committee pursuant to the terms of the Plan, including, without limitation, the Committee’s rights to make certain determinations and elections with respect to the DSAs.

12.            Binding Effect .  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors to the Company and all persons lawfully claiming under Employee.

13.            Non-Alienation .  Employee shall not have any right to pledge, hypothecate, anticipate or assign this Agreement or the rights hereunder, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

14.            Not a Contract of Employment .  This Agreement shall not be deemed to constitute a contract of employment, nor shall any provision hereof affect (a) the right of the Company to discharge Employee at will or (b) the terms and conditions of any other agreement between the Company and Employee except as expressly provided herein.

15.            Counterparts .  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same Agreement.

16.            Governing Law .   This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF , the Company has caused this Agreement to be duly executed by an officer thereunto duly authorized, and Employee has executed this Agreement, all effective as of the Effective Date.
