<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Under the terms of the agreement, Nabors acquired all common shares of Tesco in an all-stock transaction.

Today marks a new milestone for the future of our company,&#148; said Nabors Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer Anthony G. Petrello. &#147;As we implement new levels of drilling automation and analytics, this combination of Tesco and Nabors&#146; exceptional talent and technologies strengthens our ability to accelerate and scale deployment while continuing to innovate.&#148;</font></p>
