SIZE="2">We are an independent oil and natural gas acquisition, exploitation and exploration company. Our goal is to generate a high return on equity through profitably increasing production and reserves. We are focused primarily in the Gulf of
Mexico area, where we have developed significant technical expertise and where the high production rates associated with hydrocarbon deposits have historically provided us the best opportunity to achieve a rapid payback on our invested capital. We
believe this focus and our historic success provide a solid foundation for higher impact capital projects in the Gulf of Mexico, including the deepwater (water depths in excess of 500 feet) and the deep shelf (well depths in excess of 15,000 feet).

five-year period ended December 31, 2003, we completed five significant acquisitions for a total purchase price of approximately $176.3 million, which added an aggregate of approximately 343.2 Bcfe to our net proved reserves. We have focused on
acquiring properties where we can develop an inventory of drilling prospects that enable us to continue to add reserves post-acquisition. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Subsequent to the completion of these five acquisitions, we deployed resources to realize the value of the proved developed reserves, to exploit the
proved undeveloped reserves and to explore for upside potential by drilling for unproven reserves. From the time of acquisition of these properties through December 31, 2003, we invested an additional $223.0 million in exploitation, exploration and
the exercise of preferential rights of purchase. Through these activities, we added an incremental 187.0 Bcfe of proved reserves, including reserve revisions, while producing 156.8 Bcfe from these properties. </FONT></P> <P

properties totaled 373.4 Bcfe, with a PV-10 of $1,068 million. A portion of the increase in value subsequent to these acquisitions has come through additional drilling. As a result, through December 31, 2003, we have achieved a compounded annual
return of greater than 80% on the capital we have deployed on the acquired properties including the effect of changes in commodity prices, with significant reserves remaining to be produced. </FONT></P> <P

natural gas reserves on approximately 960,000 gross acres in the Gulf of Mexico. We believe that our large acreage position and significant discretionary cash flow provide a strong base to conduct our exploration activities. During the three-year
period ended December 31, 2003, we drilled 38 exploratory wells, of which 34 were successful (which we define as completed or planned for completion). During this period, we spent $157.4 million on exploration activities and added 110.1 Bcfe of
proved reserves through our exploration activities. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">During
2004, our planned capital expenditures are approximately $200 million including: $108 million for the drilling of 25 exploration wells and seven development wells; $50 million for completion and facility cost and for currently unidentified drilling
opportunities; and $42 million for other projects. Through March 31, 2004, we have spent approximately $32 million (net to our interest) to drill eight exploration wells, four of which were successful, and one successful development well. Of these
four successful exploration wells (three of which we operate), three are in deepwater. We expect to spend $57 million (net to our interest) to drill the remaining 17 exploration wells, approximately one-third of which will be in the deepwater or the
deep shelf. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We currently have 50 identified exploration
prospects in addition to the 25 discussed above, all of which are supported by 3-D seismic data and are in various stages of evaluation. The majority of these are single well prospects, with seven located in the deepwater, five targeted for the deep
shelf, 31 located on other parts of the outer continental shelf (&#147;OCS&#148;) and seven located onshore. Depending upon the outcome of the exploration wells drilled in 2004 and further geologic, engineering and economic evaluations, the 50
additional wells are expected to be drilled in 2005 and beyond. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">We have become more active in bidding for Gulf of Mexico leases on the OCS at lease sales conducted by the U.S. government through the Minerals Management Service (&#147;MMS&#148;). At the March 2004 OCS lease sale, we were the high bidder
on eight of nine bids submitted for OCS blocks located in the central Gulf of Mexico. These OCS blocks were bid at 100% working interest. The bids are subject to a review process by the MMS before any leases are awarded. As of March 31, 2004, the
MMS had awarded to us two of these leases, including one in the deepwater. Two of the six additional leases are in the deepwater. Assuming the remaining leases are awarded to us, we will be the operator on approximately 30,000 additional acres.

reserves on the OCS of the Gulf of Mexico, the area of our historical success, or in other areas outside of the Gulf of Mexico that are compatible with our technical expertise and could yield rates of return comparable to those we have historically
achieved. We believe attractive acquisition opportunities will continue to arise in the Gulf of Mexico as the major integrated oil companies and other large independent oil and gas exploration and production companies continue to divest properties
to focus on larger and more capital-intensive projects that better match their long-term strategic goals. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Deepwater acquisitions and drilling.</I> During recent years, we have gradually extended our acquisition and drilling activities into the deeper waters
of the Gulf of Mexico. We believe this is a natural extension of our historical activity and experience in the shallow water of the Gulf of Mexico. In 2000, we acquired our first deepwater interest. As of March 31, 2004, we have drilled seven wells
in the deepwater, five of which have been successful. Our deepwater projects have been in water depths up to 4,200 feet and located in areas where we can drill from existing infrastructure or where we are able to connect our subsea wells to existing
infrastructure. We believe our opportunities for deepwater exploration have been enhanced by technological advances in recent years that enable the connection of subsea wells to existing infrastructure over longer distances, eliminating the
requirement for new, dedicated production facilities, the installation of which require long lead times and large capital investments. We also believe asset divestitures and resource constraints of major integrated oil companies and other large
upstream companies may allow us to acquire attractive deepwater prospects at favorable prices with a significant portion of the up-front development expenses, such as infrastructure and seismic, already invested. </FONT></P> <P

acreage has exploration potential below currently producing zones, including deep shelf reserves. We consider deep shelf targets to be hydrocarbon-bearing horizons located in shallow water areas of the Gulf of Mexico at subsurface depths greater
than 15,000 feet. The MMS estimates there could be up to 55 trillion cubic feet of natural gas recoverable from the deep shelf in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico. Although the cost to drill deep shelf wells can be significantly higher than shallower wells,
the reserve targets are typically larger and the use of existing infrastructure and recent royalty suspension incentives from the MMS should partially offset higher drilling cost. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

Historical and Pro Forma Financial Information</I>&#148; for a reconciliation of EBITDA to net income. Although not prescribed under GAAP, we believe the presentation of EBITDA is relevant and useful because it helps our investors understand our
operating performance and makes it easier to compare our results with those of other companies that have different financing, capital or tax structures. EBITDA should not be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for net income, as an
indication of operating performance or cash flows from operating activities or as a measure of liquidity. EBITDA, as we calculate it, may not be comparable to EBITDA measures reported by other companies. In addition, EBITDA does not represent funds
available for discretionary use. </FONT></TD></TR></TABLE> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

understand our operating performance and makes it easier to compare our results with those of other companies that have different financing, capital or tax structures. EBITDA should not be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for net
income, as an indication of operating performance or cash flows from operating activities or as a measure of liquidity. EBITDA, as we calculate it, may not be comparable to EBITDA measures reported by other companies. In addition, EBITDA does not
represent funds available for discretionary use. </FONT></TD></TR></TABLE> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

highly dependent on our success in efficiently developing and exploiting our current reserves and economically finding or acquiring additional recoverable reserves. We may not be able to develop, exploit, find or acquire additional reserves to
replace our current and future production. We produce oil and natural gas from our reserves faster than many of our competitors. Our ability to replace those reserves is thus even more important for us than certain of our competitors. Further, as
our aggregate reserves and production rates increase in volume, it will become more challenging to replace the produced reserves. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P

resources that allow them to obtain substantially greater technical and personnel resources than we have. These additional resources can be particularly important in reviewing prospects and purchasing properties. Our competitors may be able to
evaluate, bid for and purchase a greater number of properties and prospects than our financial or personnel resources permit. Our competitors may also be able to pay more for productive oil and natural gas properties and exploratory prospects than
we are able or willing to pay. Our ability to acquire additional prospects and to find and develop reserves in the future will depend on our ability to evaluate and select suitable properties and to consummate transactions in a highly competitive
environment. If we are unable to compete successfully in these areas in the future, our future revenues and growth may be diminished or restricted. The availability of properties for acquisition depends largely on the divesting practices of other
oil and natural gas companies, commodity prices, general economic conditions and other factors we cannot control or influence. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P

cost overruns and/or result in uneconomic projects or wells. Deeper targets are more difficult to detect with traditional seismic processing. Moreover, drilling expense and the risk of mechanical failure are significantly higher because of the
additional depth and adverse conditions such as high temperature and pressure. We will likely experience significantly higher cost for any deep shelf wells that we drill. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that our oil and natural gas exploration
activities, in the deep shelf, the deepwater and elsewhere, will be commercially successful. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

realization of our targeted returns on capital in drilling or acquisition activities in the deepwater of the Gulf of Mexico. The success and timing of development and exploitation activities on properties operated by others depend upon a number of

geological information, to be indications of oil or natural gas. Our prospects are in various stages of evaluation, ranging from a prospect that is ready to be drilled to a prospect that will require substantial additional seismic data processing
and interpretation. There is no way to predict in advance of drilling and testing whether any particular prospect will yield oil or natural gas in sufficient quantities to recover drilling or completion cost or to be economically viable. The use of
seismic data and other technologies and the study of producing fields in the same area will not enable us to know conclusively prior to drilling whether oil or natural gas will be present or, if present, whether oil or natural gas will be present in
commercial quantities. We cannot assure you that the analysis we perform using data from other wells, more fully explored prospects and/or producing fields will be useful in predicting the characteristics and potential reserves associated with our
drilling prospects. As we focus our drilling efforts on deepwater and deep shelf targets, our drilling activities will likely become more expensive and may exceed our historical finding and development cost. In addition, the geological complexity of
deepwater and deep shelf formations may make it more difficult for us to sustain our historical rates of drilling success. As a result, there can be no assurance that we will find commercially viable quantities of oil and natural gas, and therefore,
there can be no assurance that we will achieve our targeted rate of return or have a positive rate of return on investment. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

value of our common stock on December 31, 2003 was approximately $&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; per share. The net tangible book value per share is determined by dividing our tangible net worth, or tangible
assets less total liabilities, by the total number of outstanding shares of common stock, calculated on a fully diluted basis, giving effect to the assumed conversion of our outstanding preferred stock to common stock. After giving effect to the
sale of common stock offered by this prospectus (at an assumed price of $&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; per share) and the receipt of the estimated net proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts and
estimated offering expenses, our net tangible book value at December 31, 2003 would have been approximately $&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; per share. This represents an immediate and substantial increase in
the net tangible book value of $&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; per share to existing shareholders and an immediate dilution of $&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; per

investors understand our operating performance and makes it easier to compare our results with those of other companies that have different financing, capital or tax structures. EBITDA should not be considered in isolation from or as a substitute
for net income, as an indication of operating performance or cash flows from operating activities or as a measure of liquidity. EBITDA, as we calculate it, may not be comparable to EBITDA measures reported by other companies. In addition, EBITDA
does not represent funds available for discretionary use. </FONT></TD></TR></TABLE> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

engaged in oil and natural gas acquisition, exploitation and exploration activities, primarily in the Gulf of Mexico. We own working interests in approximately 110 fields in federal and state waters, and we operate wells accounting for approximately
52% of our daily production. We have interests in leases covering approximately 960,000 acres spanning across the outer continental shelf off the coast of Louisiana, Texas, Mississippi and Alabama. We own interests in 279 offshore structures, of
which 104 are platforms in the fields that we operate. We maintain these platforms and use them to separate oil and natural gas derived from nearby wells. In recent years, we have acquired interests in acreage and wells in the deepwater (more than
500 feet of water) off the outer continental shelf. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We have a
history of acquiring proved reserves at attractive prices. During the five-year period ended December 31, 2003, we completed five significant acquisitions for a total purchase price of approximately $176.3 million, which added an aggregate of
approximately 343.2 Bcfe to our net proved reserves. We have focused on acquiring properties where we can develop an inventory of drilling prospects enabling us to continue to add reserves post-acquisition. </FONT></P> <P

resources to achieve the value of the proved developed reserves, to exploit the proved undeveloped reserves and to explore for upside potential by drilling for unproven reserves. From the time of acquisition of these properties through December 31,
2003, we have invested an additional $223.0 million in exploitation, exploration and the exercise of preferential rights of purchase. Through these activities, we have added an incremental 187.0 Bcfe of proved reserves, including reserve revisions,
while producing 156.8 Bcfe from these properties. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As of
December 31, 2003, the remaining proved reserves for these acquired properties totaled 373.4 Bcfe, with a PV-10 of $1,068 million. A substantial portion of the increase in value subsequent to these acquisitions has come through additional drilling.
As a result, through December 31, 2003, we have achieved a compounded annual return of greater than 80% on the capital we have deployed on the acquired properties, including the effect of changes in commodity prices, with significant reserves
remaining to be produced. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">During 2002, we completed our
largest acquisition to date from Burlington Resources with working interests in 53 offshore fields. During 2003, we acquired working interests in 13 offshore fields from ConocoPhillips. Both of these acquisitions were consummated in the month of
December, so they did not have a material effect on our operations or income statement in the year completed. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Our exploration efforts are balanced between discovering new reserves associated with acquisitions and discoveries on acreage already under lease.
Historically, we have financed our exploratory drilling with net cash provided by operating activities. The investment associated with drilling a well and future development of a project principally depends upon the water depth of the well or
project, the depth of the well or wells, the complexity of the geological formations involved and whether the well or project can be connected to existing infrastructure or will require additional investment in infrastructure. Deepwater and deep
shelf drilling projects can be substantially more capital intensive than those on the conventional shelf. When projects are extremely capital intensive and involve substantial risk, we generally seek joint venture participants to share the risk.

availability of purchasers for the product at the wellhead, the availability and cost of pipelines near the well or related production platform, market prices, pipeline constraints and operational flexibility. During 2003, we sold an average of
approximately 145 MMcf of natural gas per day and approximately 12,000 Bbl of oil per day. Our revenues in 2003 benefited from a general rise in oil and natural gas prices over the year. Over the past three years, we have not engaged in any

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In recent years, we have begun to acquire and build platforms near the outer edge of the continental shelf, and we have begun operating wells in the deepwater part of the Gulf of Mexico. As we expand our deepwater
operations, our operating costs may increase. While each field can present operating problems that can add to the costs of operating a field, the production cost of a field is generally directly proportional to the number of platforms built in the
field to handle production. As technologies have improved, it has become possible to produce oil and natural gas from a larger acreage area using a single platform, which may reduce the operating cost structure associated with recently developed
fields. We expect our operating costs per Mcfe to increase during 2004, reflecting the higher cost structure of the fields we recently acquired on the outer edge of the continental shelf. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

wells and to remediate any environmental damage our operations may have caused. The cost associated with our plug and abandonment liabilities generally increase as we drill wells in the deeper parts of the continental shelf and the deepwater. We
generally do not pre-fund our estimated abandonment liabilities, which we estimated to be $127.6 million discounted at 8% at December 31, 2003, because we operate under an exemption from certain bonding requirements under MMS rules. </FONT></P> <P

million, which had the effect of increasing our G&amp;A for 2003 by $0.12 per Mcfe over what it otherwise would have been. The incentive compensation grants were comprised of approximately $5.5 million of restricted common stock and $3.8 million of
cash. In addition, there were increases in compensation expense associated with increased personnel required to administer our growth, more active acquisition and exploitation programs and general cost inflation. While we use the full-cost method of
accounting that requires us to capitalize some of the costs of exploration, we expensed approximately $1.8 million in 2002 and $1.9 million in 2003 of geological and geophysical costs incurred in our exploration activities, which we included as

temporary, and we did not experience a noticeable decline in price for this reason in 2003. Our operations are affected by seasonal changes in weather. Periodic storms in the Gulf of Mexico, particularly in the winter months, sometimes impede our
ability to safely load, unload and transport personnel and equipment, although weather conditions infrequently have a direct impact on the rate of oil and natural gas production. Accordingly, although our results of operations are not generally
subject to seasonal fluctuations, we are generally not able to install production platforms in the winter months; thus, we are not able to realize revenues from those platforms until we are able to install them. </FONT></P> <P

determinable price, when delivery has occurred and title has transferred, and if the collection of the revenue is probable. The Company uses the sales method of accounting for its oil and gas revenues and not entitlements; therefore, no accruals are
made for imbalances between production and allocated sales. Historically these differences have not been material. Under this method of accounting, revenue is recorded based upon the Company&#146;s physical deliveries to its customers, which can be
different from the Company&#146;s net working ownership interest in field production. These differences create imbalances that are recognized as a liability only when the estimated remaining reserves will not be sufficient to enable the
under-produced party to recoup its entitled share through production. As of December 31, 2002 and 2003, deliveries of natural gas in excess of the Company&#146;s working interest and under-deliveries were not significant. </FONT></P> <P

natural gas properties using the full-cost method of accounting. Under this method, virtually all acquisition, exploration, development and estimated abandonment cost incurred for the purpose of acquiring or finding oil and natural gas are
capitalized. Under the full-cost method, however, we are permitted to charge to expense certain employee cost and general and administrative cost related to these activities and, in particular, most of our geological and geophysical cost. Total
capitalized geological and geophysical costs on our balance sheet were approximately $16 million at December 31, 2003; during 2003, we expensed approximately $1.9 million in geological and geophysical administrative cost. Under the full-cost method,
sales of oil and natural gas properties are accounted for as adjustments to the net full-cost pool with no gain or loss recognized, unless an adjustment would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized cost and the value of proved
reserves. We amortize our investment in oil and natural gas properties through depreciation, depletion and amortization, or DD&amp;A, using the units of production method. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

method of accounting for our oil and natural gas investments. GAAP allows successful-efforts accounting as an alternative method to full-cost accounting. The primary difference between the two methods is in the treatment of exploration cost and in
the resulting computation of DD&amp;A. Under the full-cost method, which we follow, some exploratory costs are capitalized, while under successful-efforts, the cost associated with unsuccessful exploration activities and all geological and
geophysical costs are expensed. In following the full-cost method, we calculate DD&amp;A based on a single pool for all of our oil and natural gas properties, while the successful-efforts method utilizes cost centers represented by individual
properties, fields or reserves. Typically, the application of the full-cost method of accounting for oil and natural gas properties results in higher capitalized cost and higher DD&amp;A rates, compared to similar companies applying the successful
efforts method of accounting. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Oil and natural gas reserve

ultimately recovered. We make changes to depletion rates and impairment calculations in the same period that changes to the reserve estimates are made. We do not include plug and abandonment expenses in our calculation of PV-10 reserve estimates.

production operations. These obligations are primarily associated with plugging and abandoning wells and removing and disposing of offshore oil and natural gas platforms. Estimating the future restoration and removal cost is difficult and requires
us to make estimates and judgments because most of the removal obligations are many years in the future and contracts and regulations often have vague descriptions of what constitutes removal. Asset removal technologies and cost are constantly
changing, as are regulatory, political, environmental, safety and public relations considerations. Prior to 2003, under the full-cost method of accounting, the estimated undiscounted cost of our abandonment obligations, net of the value of salvage,
were included as a component of our depletion base and expensed over the production life of the oil and natural gas properties. With the implementation of SFAS No. 143, &#147;Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations,&#148; we are now required to
record a separate liability for the discounted present value of our asset retirement obligations, with an offsetting increase to the related oil and natural gas properties on our balance sheet. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 143 at January 1, 2003, we

Over time, the liability is increased for the change in its present value each period, and the initial capitalized cost is depreciated over the useful life of the related asset. Application of this principle resulted in an initial increase in net
property, plant and equipment of $95.0 million, recognition of an initial asset retirement obligation of $101.7 million and a cumulative effect of adoption that increased net income and shareholder&#146;s equity by $0.1 million, net of income tax.

interest. As of March 31, 2004, we have drilled seven wells in the deepwater, five of which have been successful. Our deepwater projects have been in water depths up to 4,200 feet and located in areas where we can drill from existing infrastructure
or where we are able to connect our subsea wells to existing infrastructure. We believe our opportunities for deepwater exploration have been enhanced by technological advances in recent years that enable the connection of subsea wells to existing
infrastructure over longer distances, eliminating the requirement for new, dedicated production facilities, the installation of which require long lead times and large capital investments. We also believe asset divestitures and resource constraints
of major integrated oil companies and other large upstream companies may allow us to acquire attractive deepwater prospects at favorable prices with a significant portion of the up-front development expenses, such as infrastructure and seismic,
already invested. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Deep shelf exploration.</I> We believe a
significant portion of our acreage has exploration potential below currently producing zones, including deep shelf reserves. We consider deep shelf targets to be hydrocarbon-bearing horizons located in shallow water areas of the Gulf of Mexico at
subsurface depths greater than 15,000 feet. The MMS estimates there could be up to 55 trillion cubic feet of natural gas recoverable from the deep shelf in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico. Although the cost to drill deep shelf wells can be significantly
higher than shallower wells, the reserve targets are typically larger and the use of existing infrastructure and recent royalty suspension incentives from the MMS should partially offset higher drilling cost. </FONT></P> <P

quick tie back of production from deep shelf discoveries. Acreage held-by-production is attractive because it permits us to maintain all of our exploration, exploitation and development rights (including deep rights below currently producing zones)

Following the acquisition, we immediately undertook an extensive 3-D seismic re-evaluation of the field&#146;s exploration potential. We achieved a 100% success rate on a six-well drilling program during late 2000 and most of 2001. We increased
production in the field from approximately 5 MMcf of natural gas per day when we acquired it to nearly 60 MMcf of natural gas per day and 1,100 Bbl of oil per day in 2002. We believe this field may contain deep shelf exploration potential.

affecting the oil and natural gas industry is under constant review for amendment or expansion. Numerous departments and agencies, both federal and state, are authorized by statute to issue, and have issued, rules and regulations binding upon the
oil and natural gas industry and its individual members. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (&#147;FERC&#148;) regulates the transportation and sale for resale of natural gas in interstate commerce pursuant to the Natural Gas Act of 1938
(&#147;NGA&#148;) and the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978 (&#147;NGPA&#148;). In 1989, however, Congress enacted the Natural Gas Wellhead Decontrol Act, which removed all remaining price and nonprice controls affecting wellhead sales of natural gas,
effective January 1, 1993. While sales by producers of natural gas and all sales of crude oil, condensate and natural gas liquids can currently be made at uncontrolled market prices, Congress could reenact price controls in the future. </FONT></P>

gas are affected by the availability, terms and cost of transportation. The price and terms for access to pipeline transportation are subject to extensive regulation. In recent years, the FERC has undertaken various initiatives to increase
competition within the natural gas industry. As a result of initiatives like FERC Order No. 636, issued in April 1992, the interstate natural gas transportation and marketing system has been substantially restructured to remove various barriers and
practices that historically limited non-pipeline natural gas sellers, including producers, from effectively competing with interstate pipelines for sales to local distribution companies and large industrial and commercial customers. The most
significant provisions of Order No. 636 require that interstate pipelines provide firm and interruptible transportation service on an open access basis that is equal for all natural gas supplies. In many instances, the results of Order No. 636 and
related initiatives have been to substantially reduce or eliminate the interstate pipelines&#146; traditional role as wholesalers of natural gas in favor of providing only storage and transportation services. </FONT></P> <P

governing transportation and gathering services provided by intrastate pipelines and gatherers. While the changes by these federal and state regulators affect us only indirectly, they are intended to further enhance competition in natural gas
markets. We cannot predict what further action the FERC or state regulators will take on these matters; however, we do not believe that we will be affected by any action taken materially differently than other natural gas producers with which we
compete. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act
(&#147;OCSLA&#148;), which FERC implements as to transportation and pipeline issues, requires that all pipelines operating on or across the outer continental shelf (&#147;OCS&#148;) provide open access, non-discriminatory transportation service. One
of FERC&#146;s principal goals in carrying out OCSLA&#146;s mandate is to increase transparency in the market to provide producers and shippers on the OCS with greater assurance of open access service on pipelines located on the OCS and
non-discriminatory rates and conditions of service on such pipelines. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">Although the FERC has historically imposed light-handed regulation on offshore facilities that meet its traditional test of gathering status, it has the authority to exercise jurisdiction under the OCSLA over gathering facilities, if
necessary, to permit non-discriminatory access to service. In an effort to heighten its oversight of the OCS, the FERC recently attempted to promulgate reporting requirements for all OCS &#147;service providers,&#148; including gatherers, but the
regulations were struck down as ultra vires by a federal district court, which decision was affirmed by the U.S. Court of Appeals in October 2003. The FERC withdrew it regulations in March 2004. Subsequently, in April 2004, the MMS has initiated an
inquiry into whether it should amend its regulations to assure that pipelines provide open and non-discriminatory access over OCS pipeline facilities. For those facilities transporting natural gas across the OCS that are not considered to be
gathering facilities, the rates, terms and conditions applicable to this transportation are generally regulated by the FERC under the NGA and NGPA, as well as the OCSLA. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

on the OCS to meet stringent engineering and construction specifications. The MMS also has regulations restricting the flaring or venting of natural gas, and has proposed to amend such regulations to prohibit the flaring of liquid hydrocarbons and
oil without prior authorization. Similarly, the MMS has promulgated other regulations governing the plug and abandonment of wells located offshore and the installation and removal of all production facilities. </FONT></P> <P

requires that lessees have substantial net worth or post bonds or other acceptable assurances that such obligations will be satisfied. The cost of these bonds or assurances can be substantial, and there is no assurance that they can be obtained in
all cases. We are currently exempt from supplemental bonding requirements by the MMS. Under some circumstances, the MMS may require any of our operations on federal leases to be suspended or terminated. Any such suspension or termination could

leases as well as the regulations promulgated by the MMS. The MMS regulations governing the calculation of royalties and the valuation of crude oil produced from federal leases currently rely on arm&#146;s-length sales prices and spot market prices
as indicators of value. On August 20, 2003, the MMS issued a proposed rule that would change certain components of its valuation procedures for the calculation of royalties owed for crude oil sales. The proposed changes include changing the
valuation basis for transactions not at arm&#146;s-length from spot to the New York Mercantile Exchange prices adjusted for locality and quality differentials, and clarifying the treatment of transactions under a joint operating agreement. Final
comments on the proposed rule were due on November 10, 2003. We cannot predict whether this proposed rule will take effect as written, nor can we predict whether the proposed rule, if it takes effect, will be challenged in federal court and whether
it will withstand such a challenge. We believe this rule, as proposed, will not have a material impact on our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

<FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">regulation of the FERC under the Interstate Commerce Act, rates generally must be cost-based, although market-based rates or negotiated settlement rates are
permitted in certain circumstances. Pursuant to FERC Order No. 561, issued in October 1993, the FERC implemented regulations generally grandfathering all previously unchallenged interstate pipeline rates and made these rates subject to an indexing
methodology. Under this indexing methodology, pipeline rates are subject to changes in the Producer Price Index for Finished Goods, minus one percent. A pipeline can seek to increase its rates above index levels provided that the pipeline can
establish that there is a substantial divergence between the actual costs experienced by the pipeline and the rate resulting from application of the index. A pipeline can seek to charge a market-based rate if it establishes that it lacks significant
market power. In addition, a pipeline can establish rates pursuant to settlement if agreed upon by all current shippers. A pipeline can seek to establish initial rates for new services through a cost-of-service proceeding, a market-based rate
proceeding, or through an agreement between the pipeline and at least one shipper not affiliated with the pipeline. As provided for in Order No. 561, in July 2000, the FERC issued a Notice of Inquiry seeking comment on whether to retain or to change
the existing oil rate-indexing method. In December 2000, the FERC issued an order concluding that the rate index reasonably estimated the actual cost changes in the pipeline industry and should be continued for another five-year period, subject to
review in July 2005. In February 2003, on remand of its December 2000 order from the D.C. Circuit, the FERC changed the rate indexing methodology to the Producer Price Index for Finished Goods, but without the subtraction of 1% as had been done
previously. The FERC made the change prospective only, but did allow oil pipelines to recalculate their maximum ceiling rates as though the new rate indexing methodology had been in effect since July 1, 2001. A challenge to FERC&#146;s remand order

regulations and the general permits issued under the Federal National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System program prohibit the discharge of produced waters and sand, drilling fluids, drill cuttings and certain other substances related to the oil
and natural gas industry into certain coastal and offshore waters, unless otherwise authorized. Further, the EPA has adopted regulations requiring certain oil and natural gas exploration and production facilities to obtain permits for storm water
discharges. Cost may be associated with the treatment of wastewater or developing and implementing storm water pollution prevention plans. The Clean Water Act and comparable state statutes provide for civil, criminal and administrative penalties for
unauthorized discharges for oil and other pollutants and impose liability on parties responsible for those discharges for the cost of cleaning up any environmental damage caused by the release and for natural resource damages resulting from the
release. We believe that our operations comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Clean Water Act and state statutes enacted to control water pollution. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

committees, the audit committee, compensation committee and nominating and corporate governance committee. Because a single person controls our Company, we are a &#147;controlled company&#148; within the meaning of the rules of the New York Stock
Exchange; accordingly, we are not required to have independent compensation and nominating and corporate governance committees. We have determined, however, that it is in the best interests of the Company to maintain an independent compensation
committee, and our compensation committee charter requires that such committee be composed solely of independent directors. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P

will expand our board to include an additional independent director who will serve on the audit committee. Effective October 31, 2004, our audit committee will be required under New York Stock Exchange regulations to consist of not less than three
members. If at that time we have not yet appointed an additional independent director, one non-independent director will become a member of the audit committee. Within one year following this offering, the audit committee will consist solely of
independent directors. The audit committee recommends to the board the independent public accountants to audit our financial statements and establishes the scope of, and oversees, the annual audit. The committee also approves any other services
provided by public accounting firms. The audit committee provides assistance to the board in fulfilling its oversight responsibility to the shareholders, the investment community and others relating to the integrity of our financial statements, our
compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, the independent auditor&#146;s qualifications and independence and the performance of our internal audit function. The committee oversees our system of disclosure controls and procedures and system
of internal controls regarding financial, accounting, legal compliance and ethics that management and the board have established. In doing so, it is the responsibility of the committee to maintain free and open communication between the committee

plans to issue preferred stock. The issuance of shares of preferred stock, or the issuance of rights to purchase preferred stock, could be used to discourage an unsolicited acquisition proposal. For example, a business combination could be impeded
by the issuance of a series of preferred stock containing class voting rights that would enable the holder or holders of such series to block any such transaction. Alternatively, a business combination could be facilitated by the issuance of a
series of preferred stock having sufficient voting rights to provide a required percentage vote of our shareholders. In addition, under some circumstances, the issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of
the holders of common stock. Although prior to issuing any series of preferred stock our board is required to make a determination as to whether the issuance is in the best interests of our shareholders, our board could act in a manner that would
discourage an acquisition attempt or other transaction that some, or a majority, of our shareholders might believe to be in their best interests or in which our shareholders might receive a premium for their stock over prevailing market prices of
such stock. Our board does not at present intend to seek shareholder approval prior to any issuance of currently authorized preferred stock, unless otherwise required by law or applicable stock exchange requirements. </FONT></P> <P

$220,900 ($143,585 net of tax). In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 143, we record an abandonment liability associated with our oil and gas wells and platforms when those assets are placed in service, rather than our past practice of
accruing the expected undiscounted abandonment costs on a unit-of-production basis over the productive life of the associated full-cost pool. Under SFAS No. 143, depletion expense is reduced since a discounted ARO is depleted in the property balance
rather than the undiscounted value previously depleted under the old rules. The lower depletion expense under SFAS No. 143 is offset, however, by accretion expense, which is recognized over time as the discounted liability is accreted to our

future net cash flows related to proved oil and gas reserves together with changes therein, as defined by the FASB, including a reduction for estimated plug and abandonment costs that are also reflected as a liability on the balance sheet at
December 31, 2003 in accordance with SFAS No. 143. Future net cash flows and discounted future net cash flows, referred to in the table below, do not necessarily represent the fair value of our estimated oil and gas reserves. As required by the SEC,
we determined estimated future net cash flows using period-end market prices for oil and gas without considering hedge contracts in place at the end of the period. Future production and development costs are based on current costs with no
escalations. Estimated future cash flows net of future income taxes have been discounted to their present values based on a 10% annual discount rate. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

addition, these allocations, if made using historical general and administrative structures and tax burdens, would not produce allocations that would be indicative of the historical performance of the acquired properties had they been our assets due
to the greatly differing size, structure, operations and accounting of the two companies. The accompanying financial statement also does not include provisions for depreciation, depletion, and amortization, as such amounts would not be indicative of

proved reserves less estimated future production and development costs, estimated plugging and abandonment costs, estimated future income taxes and a discount factor. Future cash inflows represent expected revenues from production of period-end
quantities of proved reserves based on period-end prices and any fixed and determinable future escalation provided by contractual arrangements in existence at year end. Escalation based on inflation, federal regulatory changes and supply and demand
are not considered. Estimated future production costs related to period-end reserves are based on period-end costs. Such costs include, but are not limited to, production taxes and direct operating costs. Inflation and other anticipatory costs are
not considered until the actual cost change takes effect. Estimated future income tax expenses are computed using the appropriate period-end statutory tax rates. A discount rate of 10% is applied to the annual future net cash flows. </FONT></P> <P

provides, in general, that we will indemnify our directors under the circumstances permitted under the Texas Business Corporation Act. We have obtained an insurance policy insuring our directors against certain liabilities, if any, that arise in
connection with the performance of their duties on our behalf. In addition, we have entered into indemnification agreements with our directors. These agreements provide that if a director is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any action,
we will indemnify the director and hold the director harmless against any and all liabilities or losses incurred in connection with such action if it arises out of or is related to the fact that the director is or was serving as a director, to the
fullest extent permitted by then applicable law. Further, if Texas law is amended to authorize the further elimination or limitation of directors&#146; liability, then the liability of our directors will automatically be limited to the fullest
extent provided by law. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

and the Preferred Stock Series Resolution, provided that the manner in which
such facts shall operate upon such Series Terms is clearly and expressly set

Common Stock of the corporation.

                                                                               5

stock dividend) shall be declared or paid on any share or shares of any class of
stock or series thereof ranking on a parity with the Common Stock in respect of
payment of dividends for any dividend period unless there shall have been
declared, for the same dividend period, like proportionate dividends on all
shares of Common Stock then outstanding.

        2.      LIQUIDATION. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of the corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary (each, a
"Liquidation Event"), after payment or provision for payment of the debts and
other liabilities of the corporation and payment or setting aside for payment of
any preferential amount due to the holders of any other class or series of
stock, the holders of the Common Stock shall be entitled to receive ratably any
or all assets remaining to be paid or distributed.

        3.      VOTING RIGHTS. Subject to any special voting rights set forth in
any Preferred Stock Series Resolution, the holders of the Common Stock of the
corporation shall be entitled at all meetings of shareholders to one vote for
each share of such stock held by them.

C.      PRIOR, PARITY OR JUNIOR STOCK

        Whenever reference is made in this Article Four to shares "ranking prior
to" another class of stock or "on a parity with" another class of stock, such
reference shall mean and include all other shares of the corporation in respect
of which the rights of the holders thereof as to the payment of dividends or as
to distributions upon a Liquidation Event, as the case may be, are given
preference over, or rank on an equality with, as the case may be, the rights of
the holders of such other class of stock. Whenever reference is made to shares
"ranking junior to" another class of stock, such reference shall mean and
include all shares of the corporation in respect of which the rights of the
holders thereof as to the payment of dividends or as to distributions upon a
Liquidation Event, as the case may be, are junior and subordinate to the rights
of the holders of such class of stock.

        Except as otherwise provided herein or in any Preferred Stock Series
Resolution, each series of Preferred Stock ranks on a parity with each other
with respect to the payment of dividends and distributions upon a Liquidation
Event, and each ranks prior to the Common Stock with respect to the payment of
dividends and distributions upon a Liquidation Event. Common Stock ranks junior
to the Preferred Stock with respect to the payment of dividends and
distributions upon a Liquidation Event.

D.      LIQUIDATION

        For the purposes of Section 2 of Section B of this Article Four and for
the purpose of the comparable sections of any Preferred Stock Series Resolution,
the merger or consolidation of the corporation into or with any other
corporation, or the merger of any other corporation into it, or the sale, lease,
or conveyance of all or substantially all the

                                                                               6

assets, property or business of the corporation, shall not be deemed to be a
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the corporation.

E.      RESERVATION AND RETIREMENT OF SHARES

        The corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available, out of
its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock or out of shares of Common
Stock held in its treasury, the full number of shares of Common Stock into which
all shares of any series of Preferred Stock having conversion privileges from
time to time outstanding are convertible.

        Unless otherwise provided in a Preferred Stock Series Resolution with
respect to a particular series of Preferred Stock, all shares of Preferred Stock
redeemed or acquired (as a result of conversion or otherwise) shall be retired
and restored to the status of authorized but unissued shares.

                                    ARTICLE V

                              NO PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS

        No holder of any shares of stock of the corporation shall be entitled as
a matter of right to purchase or subscribe for any part of any shares of stock
of the corporation authorized by these Articles or of any additional shares of
stock of any class to be issued by reason of any increase in the authorized
capital stock of the corporation, or of any bonds, certificates of indebtedness,
debentures, warrants, options or other securities or rights convertible into any
class of capital stock of the corporation, but any shares of stock authorized by
these Articles or any such additional authorized issue of any capital stock,
rights or securities convertible into any shares of such stock may be issued and
disposed of by the Board of Directors to such persons, firms, corporations or
associations for such consideration, upon such terms and in such manner as the
Board of Directors may, in its discretion, determine without any offering
thereof on the same terms or on any other terms to the shareholders then of
record or to any class of shareholders; provided only that such issuance may not
be inconsistent with any provisions of law or with any of the provisions of
these Articles.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                            MEETINGS OF SHAREHOLDERS

        An annual meeting of the shareholders shall be held at such times as may
be stated or fixed in accordance with the bylaws. Special meetings may only be
called (1) by the Chairman of the Board (if any), the President, the Board of
Directors, or such other person or persons as may be authorized in the articles
of incorporation or the bylaws or (2) by the holders of not less than thirty
(30) percent of all the shares entitled to vote at the proposed special meeting.
No action of the stockholders may be taken by written consent or consents of
stockholders.

                                                                               7

                             LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

        To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no director of this
corporation shall be liable to the corporation or its shareholders for monetary
damages for an act or omission in the director's capacity as director, except
that this Article does not eliminate or limit the liability of a director for:

        (a)     a breach of a director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or
its shareholders;

        (b)     an act or omission not in good faith or that involves
intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law;

        (c)     a transaction from which a director received an important
benefit, whether or not the benefit resulted from an action taken within the
scope of the director's office;

        (d)     an act or omission for which the liability of a director is
expressly provided for by statute; or

        (e)     an act related to an unlawful stock repurchase or payment of a
dividend.

If the Texas Miscellaneous Corporation Laws Act or any other statute is amended
subsequently to the effective date of this Article VII to authorize corporate
action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then
the liability of a director of the corporation shall be eliminated or limited to
the full extent permitted by such statute, as so amended.

        Any repeal or modification of the foregoing paragraph by the
shareholders of the corporation shall not adversely affect any right or
protection of a director of the corporation existing at the time of such repeal
or modification.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                                 INDEMNIFICATION

THE INDEMNIFIED PERSON MAY BE INVOLVED OR THREATENED TO BE INVOLVED, AS A PARTY
OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF OR INCIDENTAL TO THE BUSINESS OR ACTIVITIES OF OR

CONTINUES TO BE A DIRECTOR AT THE TIME ANY SUCH LIABILITY OR EXPENSE IS PAID OR
INCURRED. THE INDEMNIFICATION PROVIDED IN THIS ARTICLE VIII MAY NOT BE MADE TO
OR ON BEHALF OF ANY DIRECTOR IF A FINAL ADJUDICATION ESTABLISHES THAT THE
INDEMNIFIED PERSONS ACTS OR OMISSIONS INVOLVED INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT, FRAUD OR
A KNOWING VIOLATION OF THE LAW.

AUTHORIZED IN THIS ARTICLE VIII OR OTHERWISE.

        (c)     ANY INDEMNIFICATION HEREUNDER SHALL BE SATISFIED ONLY OUT OF THE
ASSETS OF THE CORPORATION, AND THE STOCKHOLDERS SHALL NOT BE SUBJECT TO PERSONAL
LIABILITY BY REASON OF THESE INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS.

        (d)     AN INDEMNIFIED PERSON SHALL NOT BE DENIED INDEMNIFICATION IN
WHOLE OR IN PART UNDER THIS ARTICLE VIII OR OTHERWISE BY REASON OF THE FACT THAT
THE INDEMNIFIED PERSON HAD AN INTEREST IN THE TRANSACTION WITH RESPECT TO WHICH
THE INDEMNIFICATION APPLIES IF THE TRANSACTION WAS OTHERWISE PERMITTED OR NOT
EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED BY THE TERMS OF THESE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION.

he has a right to vote; and no shareholder shall be entitled to cumulate his
votes by giving one candidate a number of votes equal to the number of directors
to be elected, multiplied by the number of shares owned by such shareholder, or
by distributing such votes on the same principle among any number of candidates.

                               A TEXAS CORPORATION

                                   ARTICLE I.

                                REGISTERED OFFICE

        The registered office of the Corporation required by the Texas Business
Corporation Act to be maintained in the State of Texas shall be the registered
office named in the original Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation or
such other office (which need not be a place of business of the Corporation) as
may be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors in the manner
provided by law.

                                   ARTICLE II.

                                  SHAREHOLDERS

        Section 1. Place of Meetings. All meetings of the shareholders shall be
held at the principal place of business of the Corporation or at such other
place within or without the State of Texas as shall be specified or fixed in the
notices or waivers of notice thereof.

        Section 2. Quorum; Required Vote for Shareholder Action; Adjournment of
Meetings. Unless otherwise required by law or provided in the Articles of
Incorporation or these bylaws, the holders of issued and outstanding shares
representing a majority of the votes entitled to be cast thereat, present in
person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at any meeting of
shareholders for the transaction of business, and the act of a majority of the
voting power of such stock so represented at any meeting of shareholders at
which a quorum is present shall constitute the act of the meeting of
shareholders.

        Notwithstanding the other provisions of the Articles of Incorporation or
these bylaws, the chairman of the meeting or the holders of a majority of the
voting power of the issued and outstanding stock present in person or
represented by proxy at any meeting of shareholders, whether or not a quorum is
present, shall have the power to adjourn such meeting from time to time, without
any notice other than announcement at the meeting of the time and place of the
holding of the adjourned meeting. At such adjourned meeting

                                        1

<PAGE>

any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the meeting as
originally called.

        Section 3. Annual Meetings. An annual meeting of the shareholders, for
the election of directors to succeed those whose terms expire and for the
transaction of such other business as may properly come before the meeting,
shall be held at such place, within or without the State of Texas, on such date
and at such time as the Board of Directors shall fix and set forth in the notice
of the meeting, which date shall be within 13 months subsequent to the date of
incorporation or the last annual meeting of shareholders, whichever most
recently occurred.

        Section 4. Special Meetings. Unless otherwise provided in the Articles
of Incorporation, special meetings of the shareholders for any proper purpose or
purposes may be called at any time by (a) the Chairman of the Board (if any),
the President, the Board of Directors, or such other person or persons as may be
authorized in the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws or (b) unless the
Articles of Incorporation provide otherwise, the holders of issued and
outstanding shares representing at least thirty percent of all the votes
entitled to be cast at the proposed special meeting.

        If not otherwise stated in or fixed in accordance with the remaining
provisions hereof, the record date for determining shareholders entitled to call
a special meeting is the date any shareholder first signs the notice of that
meeting.

        Only business within the purpose or purposes described in the notice (or
waiver thereof) required by these bylaws may be conducted at a special meeting
of the shareholders.

        Section 5. Closing Transfer Books; Record Date. For the purpose of
determining shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of
shareholders or any adjournment thereof, or entitled to receive a distribution
by the Corporation (other than a distribution involving a purchase or redemption
by the Corporation of any of its own shares) or share dividend, or in order to
make a determination of shareholders for any other purpose, the Board of
Directors of the Corporation may provide that the stock transfer books shall be
closed for a stated period but not to exceed, in any case, 60 days nor be less
than 10 days. If the stock transfer books shall be closed for the purpose of
determining shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of
shareholders, such books shall be closed for at least ten days immediately
preceding such meeting.

        In lieu of closing the stock transfer books, the Board of Directors may
fix in advance a date as the record date for any such determination of
shareholders, such date in any case to be not more than 60 days and, in the case
of a meeting of shareholders, not less than ten days, prior to the date on which
the particular action requiring such determination of shareholders is to be
taken.

        If the stock transfer books are not closed and no record date is fixed
for the determination of shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a
meeting of shareholders,

                                        2

<PAGE>

or shareholders entitled to receive a distribution (other than a distribution
involving a purchase or redemption by the Corporation of any of its own shares)
or a share dividend, the date on which notice of the meeting is mailed or the
date on which the resolution of the Board of Directors declaring such
distribution or share dividend is adopted, as the case may be, shall be the
record date for such determination of shareholders.

        When a determination of shareholders entitled to vote at any meeting of
shareholders has been made as provided herein, such determination shall also
apply to any adjournment thereof except where the determination has been made
through the closing of stock transfer books and the stated period of closing has
expired.

        Section 6. Notice of Meetings. Written or printed notice stating the
place, day and hour of the meeting and, in the case of a special meeting, the
purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, shall be delivered not less
than ten nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting, either personally
or by mail, by or at the direction of the President, the Secretary or the
officer or person calling the meeting, to each shareholder of record entitled to
vote at such meeting. If mailed, any such notice shall be deemed to be delivered
when deposited in the United States mail, addressed to the shareholder at his
address as it appears on the stock transfer books of the Corporation, with
postage thereon prepaid.

        Any notice required to be given to any shareholder, under any provision
of the Texas Business Corporation Act or the Articles of Incorporation or these
bylaws need not be given to the shareholder if (a) notice of two consecutive
annual meetings and all notices of meetings held during the period between those
annual meetings, if any, or (b) all (but in no event less than two) payments of
distributions or interest on securities during a 12-month period have been
mailed to that person by first-class mail, addressed to him at his address as
shown on the records of the Corporation, and have been returned undeliverable.
Any action or meeting taken or held without notice to such person shall have the
same force and effect as if the notice had been duly given and, if the action
taken by the Corporation is reflected in any articles or document filed with the
Secretary of State, those articles or that document may state that notice was
duly given to all persons to whom notice was required to be given. If such a
person delivers to the Corporation written notice setting forth his then current
address, the requirement that notice be given to that person shall be
reinstated.

        Section 7. Voting List. The officer or agent having charge of the stock
transfer books for shares of the Corporation shall make, at least ten days
before each meeting of shareholders, a complete list of the shareholders
entitled to vote at such meeting or any adjournment thereof, arranged in
alphabetical order, with the address of and the number of shares held by each,
which list, for a period of ten days prior to such meeting, shall be kept on
file at the registered office of the Corporation and shall be subject to
inspection by any shareholder at any time during usual business hours. Such list
shall also be produced and kept open at the time and place of the meeting and
shall be subject to the inspection of any shareholder during the whole time of
the meeting. The original stock transfer books shall be prima-facie evidence as
to who are the shareholders entitled to

                                        3

<PAGE>

examine such list or transfer books or to vote at any meeting of shareholders.
Failure to comply with the requirements of this Section shall not affect the
validity of any action taken at such meeting.

        Section 8. Proxies. A shareholder may vote either in person or by proxy
executed in writing by the shareholder or by his duly authorized attorney-in-
fact. Proxies for use at any meeting of shareholders or in connection with the
taking of any action by written consent shall be filed with the Secretary, or
such other officer as the Board of Directors may from time to time determine by
resolution, before or at the time of the meeting or execution of the written
consent, as the case may be. All proxies shall be received and taken charge of
and all ballots shall be received and canvassed by the secretary of the meeting
who shall decide all questions touching upon the qualification of voters, the
validity of the proxies, and the acceptance or rejection of votes, unless an
inspector or inspectors shall have been appointed by the chairman of the
meeting, in which event such inspector or inspectors shall decide all such
questions.

        No proxy shall be valid after 11 months from the date of its execution
unless otherwise provided in the proxy. A proxy shall be revocable unless the
proxy form conspicuously states that the proxy is irrevocable and the proxy is
coupled with an interest. Proxies coupled with an interest shall include the
appointment as proxy of any of the persons set forth in the Texas Business
Corporation Act, including without limitation:

                (a)     a pledgee;

                (b)     a person who purchased or agreed to purchase, or owns or
                        holds an option to purchase, the shares;

                (c)     a creditor of the Corporation who extended it credit
                        under terms requiring the appointment;

                (d)     an employee of the Corporation whose employment contract
                        requires the appointment; or

                (e)     a party to a voting agreement executed under Section B,
                        Article 2.30 of the Texas Business Corporation Act.

Should a proxy designate two or more persons to act as proxies, unless such
instrument shall provide to the contrary, a majority of such persons present at
any meeting at which their powers thereunder are to be exercised shall have and
may exercise all the powers of voting or giving consents thereby conferred, or
if only one be present, then such powers may be exercised by that one; or, if an
even number attend and a majority do not agree on any particular issue, the
Corporation shall not be required to recognize such proxy with respect to such
issue if such proxy does not specify how the shares that are the subject of such
proxy are to be voted with respect to such issue.

        Section 9. Voting; Elections; Inspectors. Unless otherwise required by
law or provided in the Articles of Incorporation, each outstanding share,
regardless of class, shall be entitled to one vote on each matter submitted to a
vote at a meeting of shareholders.

        All voting, except as required by the Articles of Incorporation or where
otherwise required by law, may be by a voice vote; provided, however, that a
vote by ballot shall be taken upon demand therefor by shareholders holding
issued and outstanding shares representing a majority of the voting power
present in person or by proxy at any meeting. Every vote by ballot shall be
taken by written ballots, each of which shall state the name of the shareholder
or proxy voting and such other information as may be required under the
procedure established for the meeting.

        At any meeting at which a vote is taken by ballots, the chairman of the
meeting may appoint one or more inspectors, each of whom shall subscribe an oath
or affirmation to execute faithfully the duties of inspector at such meeting
with strict impartiality and according to the best of his ability. Such
inspector shall receive the ballots, count the votes and make and sign a
certificate of the result thereof. The chairman of the meeting may appoint any
person to serve as inspector, except no candidate for the office of director
shall be appointed as an inspector.

        At each election of directors each shareholder entitled to vote thereat
shall, unless otherwise provided by law or by the Articles of Incorporation,
have the right to vote the number of shares owned by him for as many persons as
there are to be elected and for whose election he has a right to vote. Unless
expressly prohibited by the Articles of Incorporation, a shareholder shall have
the right to cumulate his votes by giving one candidate as many votes as the
number of such directors multiplied by his shares shall equal, or by
distributing such votes on the same principle among any number of such
candidates. Any shareholder who intends to cumulate his votes shall give written
notice of such intention to the Secretary of the Corporation on or before the
day preceding the election at which such shareholder intends to cumulate his
votes. Any shareholder may cumulate his votes if such shareholder or any other
shareholder gives the written notice provided for herein.

        Section 10. Conduct of Meetings. All meetings of the shareholders shall
be presided over by the chairman of the meeting, who shall be the Chairman of
the Board (if any), or if he is not present, the President, or if neither the
Chairman of the Board (if any) nor President is present, a chairman elected at
the meeting. The Secretary of the Corporation, if present, shall act as
secretary of such meetings, or if he is not present, an Assistant Secretary (if
any) shall so act; if neither the Secretary nor an Assistant Secretary (if any)
is present, then a secretary shall be appointed by the chairman of the meeting.
The chairman of any meeting of shareholders shall determine the order of
business and the procedure at the meeting, including such regulation of the
manner of voting and the conduct of discussion as seem to him in order.

        Section 11. Treasury Shares. Neither the Corporation nor any other
person shall vote, directly or indirectly, at any meeting, shares of the
Corporation's own stock owned by the Corporation, shares of the Corporation's
own stock owned by another corporation the majority of the voting stock of which
is owned or controlled by the Corporation, and shares of the Corporation's own
stock held by the Corporation in a fiduciary capacity; and such shares shall not
be counted in determining the total number of outstanding shares at any given
time.

        Section 12. Notice of Shareholder Business and Nominations.

                (a)     Annual Meetings of Shareholders.

                        (1)     Nominations of persons for election to the Board
of Directors of the Corporation and the proposal of business to be considered by
the shareholders may be made at an annual meeting of shareholders (a) pursuant
to the Corporation's notice of meeting, (b) by or at the direction of the Board
of Directors or (c) by any shareholder of the Corporation who was a shareholder
of record at the time of giving of notice provided for in this Bylaw, who is
entitled to vote at such meeting and who complies with the notice procedures set
forth in this Bylaw.

                        (2)     For nominations or other business to be properly
brought before an annual meeting by a shareholder pursuant to clause (c) of
paragraph (a)(1) of Section 12 of this Bylaw, the shareholder must have given
timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation and such
other business must otherwise be a proper matter for shareholder action. To be
timely, a shareholder's notice shall be delivered to the Secretary at the
principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than the close of
business on the 90th day, nor earlier than the close of business on the 120th
day, prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year's annual meeting;
provided, however, that in the event that the date of the annual meeting is more
than 30 days before or more than 60 days after such anniversary date, notice by
the shareholder to be timely must be so delivered not earlier than the close of
business on the 120th day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the
close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to such annual meeting or
the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such
meeting is first made by the Corporation. In no event shall the public
announcement of an adjournment of an annual meeting commence a new time period
for the giving of a shareholder's notice as described above. Such shareholder's
notice shall set forth (a) as to each person whom the shareholder proposes to
nominate for election or reelection as a director all information relating to
such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for
election of directors in an election contest, or is otherwise required, in each
case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act"), and Rule 14a-11 thereunder (including such
person's written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and
to serving as a director if elected); (b) as to any other business that the
shareholder proposes to bring before the meeting, a brief description of the
business desired to be brought before the meeting, the reasons for conducting
such business at the meeting and any material interest in such business of such
shareholder and the beneficial

                                        6

<PAGE>

owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made; and (c) as to the
shareholder giving the notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf
the nomination or proposal is made (i) the name and address of such shareholder,
as they appear on the Corporation's books, and of such beneficial owner and (ii)
the class or series and number of shares of the Corporation which are owned
beneficially and of record by such shareholder and such beneficial owner.

                        (3)     Notwithstanding anything in the second sentence
of paragraph (a)(2) of Section 12 of this Bylaw to the contrary, in the event
that the number of directors to be elected to the Board of Directors of the
Corporation is increased and there is no public announcement by the Corporation
naming all of the nominees for director or specifying the size of the increased
Board of Directors at least 100 days prior to the first anniversary of the
preceding year's annual meeting, a shareholder's notice required by this Bylaw
shall also be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for any new
positions created by such increase, if it shall be delivered to the Secretary at
the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than the close of
business on the 10th day following the day on which such public announcement of
the increased Board is first made by the Corporation.

                (b)     Special Meetings of Shareholders. Only such business
shall be conducted at a special meeting of shareholders as shall have been
brought before the meeting pursuant to the Corporation's notice of meeting.
Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors may be made at a
special meeting of shareholders at which directors are to be elected pursuant to
the Corporation's notice of meeting (1) by or at the direction of the Board of
Directors or (2) provided that the Board of Directors has determined that
directors shall be elected at such meeting, by any shareholder of the
Corporation who is a shareholder of record at the time of giving of notice
provided for in this Bylaw, who shall be entitled to vote at the meeting and who
complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Bylaw. In the event the
Corporation calls a special meeting of shareholders for the purpose of electing
one or more directors to the Board of Directors, any such shareholder may
nominate a person or persons (as the case may be), for election to such
position(s) as specified in the Corporation's notice of meeting, if the
shareholder's notice required by paragraph (a)(2) of this Bylaw shall be
delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation
not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to such special
meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day
prior to such special meeting or the 10th day following the day on which public
announcement is first made of the date of the special meeting and of the
nominees proposed by the Board of Directors to be elected at such meeting. In no
event shall the public announcement of an adjournment of a special meeting
commence a new time period for the giving of a shareholder's notice as described
above.

                (c)     General.

                        (1)     Only such persons who are nominated in
accordance with the procedures set forth in this Bylaw shall be eligible to
serve as directors, and only such business shall be conducted at a meeting of
shareholders as shall have been brought

                                        7

<PAGE>

before the meeting in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Bylaw.
Except as otherwise provided by law, the Articles of Incorporation or these
Bylaws, the chairman of the meeting shall have the power and duty to determine
whether a nomination or any business proposed to be brought before the meeting
was made or proposed, as the case may be, in accordance with the procedures set
forth in this Bylaw and, if any proposed nomination or business is not in
compliance with this Bylaw, to declare that such defective proposal or
nomination shall be disregarded.

                        (2)     For purposes of this Bylaw, "public
announcement" shall mean disclosure in a press release reported by the Dow Jones
News Service, Associated Press or comparable national news service or in a
document publicly filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange
Commission pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

                        (3)     Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
Bylaw, a shareholder shall also comply with all applicable requirements of the
Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to the
matters set forth in this Bylaw. Nothing in this Bylaw shall be deemed to affect
any rights (a) of shareholders to request inclusion of proposals in the
Corporation's proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act or
(b) of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock to elect directors under
specified circumstances.

conduct of the affairs of the Corporation, and for further definition,
limitation and regulation of the powers of the Corporation and of its directors
and shareholders:

Corporation and the procedures to elect directors, to remove directors, and to
fill vacancies in the board of directors shall be as follows:

                (a)     Unless otherwise provided in the Articles of
Incorporation, the number of directors that shall constitute the whole board of

by a resolution adopted by a majority of the whole board of directors serving at
the time of that vote. Except in the event of a vacancy contemplated by Section
1(c) of this Article III, in no event shall the number of directors that
constitute the whole board of directors be fewer than three. No decrease in the
number of directors shall have the effect of shortening the term of any
incumbent director. Directors of the Corporation need not be elected by written
ballot unless the by-laws of the Corporation otherwise provide. Unless otherwise
provided in the Articles of Incorporation, directors need not be shareholders of
the Corporation or residents of the State of Texas.

incorporation of the Corporation, or these by-laws, the directors shall be

Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in
person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the election of

death, resignation, retirement, disqualification, removal from office, or other
cause and newly- created directorships resulting from any increase in the
authorized number of directors may be filled by no less than a majority vote of
the remaining directors then in office, though less than a quorum, and shall
hold office until the first meeting of shareholders held after his election for
the purpose of electing directors and until his successor is elected and
qualified or until his earlier death, resignation, or removal from office. Any
such vacancies which result in the number of directors being less than three
shall be promptly filled according to the procedures set forth in this
paragraph.

                (d)     A director of the Corporation may be removed before the
expiration date of that director's term of office only for cause, by an
affirmative vote of the holders of more than 60% of the outstanding shares of
stock then entitled to be voted at an election of directors, cast at the annual
meeting of shareholders or at any special meeting of shareholders called by a
majority of the whole board of directors for this purpose.

required by law or provided in the Articles of Incorporation or these bylaws, a
majority of the total number of directors shall constitute a quorum for the

be determined by the Chairman of the Board (if any), or in his absence by the
President (if the President is director), or by resolution of the Board of
Directors.

express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business an the ground
that the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.

shareholders at which directors were elected, the Board of Directors may, if a
quorum is present, hold

                                        9

such time and place shall not be required.

may be called by the Chairman of the Board (if any), the President or, on the
written request of any one director, by the Secretary, in each case on at least

director. Such notice, or any waiver thereof pursuant to Article VIII, Section 3
hereof, need not state the purpose or purposes of such meeting, except as may
otherwise be required by law or provided for by the Articles of Incorporation or
these bylaws.

of the Board of Directors at which action on any corporate matter is taken shall
be presumed to have assented to the action unless his dissent shall be entered
in the minutes of the meeting or unless he shall file his written dissent to
such action with the person acting as secretary of the meeting before the
adjournment thereof or shall forward such dissent by registered mail to the
Secretary immediately after the adjournment of the meeting. Such right to
dissent shall not apply to a director who voted in favor of such action.

        Section 9. Approval or Ratification of Acts or Contracts by
Shareholders. The Board of Directors in its discretion may submit any act or
contract for approval or ratification at any annual meeting of the shareholders,
or at any special meeting of the shareholders called for the purpose of
considering any such act or contract, and any act or contract that shall be
approved or be ratified by the vote of the shareholders holding a majority of
the issued and outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote
and present in person or by proxy at such meeting (provided that a quorum is
present), shall be as valid and as binding upon the Corporation and upon all the
shareholders as if it shall have been approved or ratified by every shareholder
of the Corporation.

costs, damages, liabilities, joint or several, expenses of any nature (including
reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements), judgments, fines, settlements and
other amounts arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or
proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, in which
the Indemnified Person may be involved or threatened to be involved, as a party
or otherwise, arising out of or incidental to the business or activities of or
relating to the Corporation regardless of whether the Indemnified Person
continues to be a Director at the time any such liability or expense is paid or
incurred. The indemnification provided in this Article VIII may not be made to
or on behalf of any Director if a final adjudication establishes that the
indemnified persons acts or omissions involved intentional misconduct, fraud or
a knowing violation of the law. and indemnification under this Article VI shall
continue as to a person who has ceased to serve in the capacity which initially
entitled such person to indemnity hereunder. The rights granted pursuant to this
Article VI shall be deemed contract rights, and no amendment, modification or
repeal of this Article VI shall have the effect of limiting or denying any such
rights with respect to actions taken or proceedings arising prior to any such
amendment, modification or repeal. It is expressly acknowledged that the
indemnification provided in this Article VI could involve indemnification for
negligence or under theories of strict liability.

        Section 2. Advance Payment. The right to indemnification conferred in
this Article VI shall include the right to be paid or reimbursed by the
Corporation the reasonable expenses incurred by a person of the type entitled to
be indemnified under Section 1 who was, is or is threatened to be made a named
defendant or respondent in a proceeding in advance of the final disposition of
the proceeding and without any determination as to the person's ultimate
entitlement to indemnification; provided, however, that the payment of such
expenses incurred by any such person in advance of the final disposition of a
proceeding, shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of a written
affirmation by such director or officer of his or her good faith belief that he
or she has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification under this
Article VI and a written undertaking, by or on behalf of such person, to repay
all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such
indemnified person is not entitled to be indemnified under this Article VI or
otherwise.

        Section 3. Appearance as a Witness. Notwithstanding any other provision
of this Article VI, the Corporation may pay or reimburse expenses incurred by a
director or officer in connection with his or her appearance as a witness or
other participation in a proceeding at a time when he or she is not a named
defendant or respondent in the proceeding.

        Section 4. Nonexclusivity of Rights. The right to indemnification and
the advancement and payment of expenses conferred in this Article VI shall not
be exclusive of any other right which a director or officer or other person
indemnified pursuant to Section 3 of this Article VI may have or hereafter
acquire under any law (common or statutory), provision of the Articles of
Incorporation of the Corporation or these bylaws, agreement, vote of
shareholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

        Section 5. Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain
insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any person who is or was
serving as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or is or
was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, partner,
venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee, agent or similar functionary of another
foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, proprietorship,
employee benefit plan, trust or other enterprise against any expense, liability
or loss, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such
person against such expense, liability or loss under this Article VI.

        Section 6. Shareholder Notification. To the extent required by law, any
indemnification of or advance of expenses to a director or officer in accordance
with this Article VI shall be reported in writing to the shareholders with or
before the notice or waiver of notice of the next shareholders' meeting or with
or before the next submission to shareholders of a consent to action without a
meeting and, in any case, within the 12-month period immediately following the
date of the indemnification or advance.

        Section 7. Savings Clause. If this Article VI or any portion hereof
shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then
the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify and hold harmless each director,
officer or any other person indemnified pursuant to this Article VI as to costs,
charges and expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts
paid in settlement with respect to any action, suit or proceeding, whether
civil, criminal, administrative or investigative to the full extent permitted by
any applicable portion of this Article VI. that shall not have been invalidated
and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

                                  ARTICLE VII.

                                  CAPITAL STOCK

        Section 1. Certificates of Stock. The certificates for shares of the
capital stock of the Corporation shall be in such form, not inconsistent with
that required by law and the Articles of Incorporation, as shall be approved by
the Board of Directors. The Chairman of the Board (if any), President or a Vice
President (if any) shall cause to be issued to

                                       15

<PAGE>

each shareholder one or more certificates, which shall be signed by the Chairman
of the Board (if any), President or a Vice President (if any) and the Secretary
or an Assistant Secretary (if any) or the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer
(if any) certifying the number of shares (and, if the stock of the Corporation
shall be divided into classes or series, the class and series of such shares)
owned by such shareholder in the Corporation; provided, however, that any of or
all the signatures on the certificate may be facsimile. If the Board of
Directors shall have provided for a seal, such certificates shall bear such seal
or a facsimile thereof. The stock record books and the blank stock certificate
books shall be kept by the Secretary, or at the office of such transfer agent or
transfer agents as the Board of Directors may from time to time by resolution
determine. In case any officer, transfer agent or registrar who shall have
signed or whose facsimile signature or signatures shall have been placed upon
any such certificate or certificates shall have ceased to be such officer,
transfer agent or registrar before such certificate is issued by the
Corporation, such certificate may nevertheless be issued by the Corporation with
the same affect as if such person were such officer, transfer agent or registrar
at the date of issue. The stock certificates shall be consecutively numbered and
shall be entered in the books of the Corporation as they are issued and shall
exhibit the holder's name and number of shares.

        Each certificate shall conspicuously bear any legend required pursuant
to Article 2.19 or Article 2.22 of the Texas Business Corporation Act, as well
as any other legend required by law.

        Section 2. Transfer of Shares. The shares of stock of the Corporation,
shall be transferable only on the books of the Corporation by the holders
thereof in person or by their duly authorized attorneys or legal
representatives, upon surrender and cancellation of certificates for a like
number of shares (or upon compliance with the provisions of Section 5 of this
Article VII, if applicable). Upon such surrender to the Corporation or a
transfer agent of the Corporation of a certificate for shares duly endorsed or
accompanied by proper evidence of succession, assignment or authority to
transfer (or upon compliance with the provisions of Section 5 of this Article
VII, if applicable) and of compliance with any transfer restrictions applicable
thereto contained in an agreement to which the Corporation is a party or of
which the Corporation has knowledge by reason of legend with respect thereto
placed an any such surrendered stock certificate, it shall be the duty of the
corporation to issue a new certificate to the person entitled thereto, cancel
the old certificate and record the transaction upon its books.

        Section 3. Ownership of Shares. The Corporation shall be entitled to
treat the holder of record of any share or shares of capital stock of the
Corporation as the holder in fact thereof and, accordingly, shall not be bound
to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such share or shares
on the part of any other person, whether or not it shall have express or other
notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by law.

        Section 4. Regulations Regarding Certificates. The Board of Directors
shall have the power and authority to make all such rules and regulations as
they may deem

                                       16

<PAGE>

expedient concerning the issue, transfer and registration or the replacement of
certificates for shares of capital stock of the Corporation.

        Section 5. Lost, Stolen, Destroyed or Mutilated Certificates. The Board
of Directors may determine the conditions upon which a new certificate of stock
may be issued in place of a certificate that is alleged to have been lost,
stolen, destroyed or mutilated; and may, in its discretion, require the owner of
such certificate or his legal representative to give bond, with sufficient
surety, to indemnify the Corporation and each transfer agent and registrar
against any and all losses or claims which may arise by reason of the issuance
of a new certificate in the place of the one so lost, stolen, destroyed or
mutilated.

                                  ARTICLE VIII.

                            MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

        Section 1. Fiscal Year. The fiscal year of the Corporation shall be such
as established from time to time by the Board of Directors.

        Section 2. Corporate Seal. The Board of Directors may provide a suitable
seal, containing the name of the Corporation. The Secretary shall have charge of
the seal (if any). If and when so directed by the Board of Directors, duplicates
of the seal may be kept and used by the Treasurer, if any, or by any Assistant
Secretary or Assistant Treasurer.

        Section 3. Notice and Waiver of Notice. Whenever any notice is required
to be given by law, the Articles of Incorporation or these bylaws, except with
respect to notices of meetings of shareholders (with respect to which the
provisions of Article II, Section 6 apply) and except with respect to notices of
special meetings of directors (with respect to which the provisions of Article
VIII, Section 6 apply), said notice shall be deemed to be sufficient if given
(a) by telegraphic, cable or wireless transmission or (b) by deposit of same in
a post office box in a sealed prepaid wrapper addressed to the person entitled
thereto at his address as it appears on the records of the Corporation, and such
notice shall be deemed to have been given on the day of such transmission or
mailing, as the case may be.

        Whenever notice is required to be given by law, the Articles of
Incorporation or these bylaws, a written waiver thereof, signed by the person
entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be
deemed equivalent to notice.

        Section 4. Resignations. Any director, member of a committee or officer
may resign at any time. Such resignation shall be made in writing and shall take
effect at the time specified therein, or if no time be specified, at the time of
its receipt by the chief executive officer or secretary. The acceptance of a
resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective, unless expressly so
provided in the resignation.

                                       17

<PAGE>

        Section 5. Facsimile Signatures. In addition to the provisions for the
use of facsimile signatures elsewhere specifically authorized in these bylaws,
facsimile signatures of any officer or officers of the Corporation may be used
whenever and as authorized by the Board of Directors.

        Section 6. Books and Records. The Corporation shall keep correct and
complete books and records of account and shall keep minutes of the proceedings
of its shareholders and Board of Directors and shall keep at its registered
office or principal place of business, or at the office of its transfer agent or
registrar, a record of its shareholders, giving the names and addresses of all
shareholders and the number and class of the shares held by each. Any books,
records and minutes may be in written form or in any other form capable of being
converted into written form within a reasonable time.

        Section 7. Reliance Upon Books, Reports and Records. Neither a director
nor a member of any committee of directors shall be liable if, in the exercise
of ordinary care, he relied and acted in good faith (a) upon financial
statements or other information of the Corporation represented to him to be
correct in all material respects by the President or by the officer of the
Corporation having charge of its books of account, or reported by an independent
public or certified public accountant or firm of such accountants to present
fairly the financial position of the Corporation, or (b) upon the written
opinion of an attorney for the Corporation; nor shall he be so liable if, in the
exercise of ordinary care and in good faith, in voting for or assenting to a
distribution by the Corporation, he considered the assets of the Corporation to
be of their book value.

        Section 8. Action Without a Meeting or by Telephone Conference Meeting.
Any action permitted or required by law, the Articles of Incorporation or these
bylaws, to be taken at a meeting of the shareholders, the Board of Directors or
any committee designated by the Board of Directors may be taken without a
meeting if a consent in writing, setting forth the action to be taken is signed
by all the shareholders or members of the Board of Directors or committee, as
the case may be. Such consent shall have the same force and effect as a
unanimous vote at a meeting and may be stated as such in any document or
instrument filed with the Secretary of State, and the execution of such consent
shall constitute attendance or presence in person at a meeting of shareholders,
the Board of Directors or any such committee, as the case may be. Subject to the
requirements by law, the Articles of Incorporation or these bylaws for notice of
meetings, unless otherwise restricted by the Articles of Incorporation, members
of the Board of Directors, or members of any committee designated by the Board
of Directors, may participate in and hold a meeting of such Board of Directors
or any committee of directors, as the case may be, by means of a conference
telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons
participating in the meeting can hear each other, and participation in such
meeting shall constitute attendance and presence in person at such meeting,
except where a person participates in the meeting for the express purpose of
objecting to the transaction of any business on the ground that the meeting is
not lawfully called or convened.

                                   ARTICLE IX.

                                   AMENDMENTS

        The Board of Directors may amend or repeal the Corporation's bylaws, or
adopt new bylaws, unless: (a) the Articles of Incorporation or the Texas
Business Corporation Act reserves the power exclusively to the shareholders in
whole or part; or (b) the shareholders, in amending, repealing or adopting a
particular bylaw, expressly provide that the Board of Directors may not amend or
repeal that bylaw.

        Unless the Articles of Incorporation or a bylaw adopted by the
shareholders provides otherwise as to all or some portion of the Corporation's
bylaws, the Corporation's shareholders may amend, repeal or adopt the
Corporation's bylaws even though the bylaws may also be amended, repealed or
adopted by the Board of Directors.

                             ARTICLE II - The Loans

     Section 2.1. Commitments to Lend; Notes. Subject to the terms and
conditions hereof, each Lender agrees to make loans to Borrower (herein called
such Lender's "Loans") upon Borrower's request from time to time during the
Commitment Period, provided that (a) subject to Sections 3.3, 3.4 and 3.6, all
Lenders are requested to make Loans of the same Type in accordance with their
respective Percentage Shares and as part of the same Borrowing, and (b) after
giving effect to such Loans, the Facility Usage does not exceed the Borrowing
Base determined as of the date on which the requested Loans are to be made or
the Commitment. The aggregate amount of all Loans in any Borrowing of ABR Loans
must be greater than or equal to $500,000 (any higher multiple of $100,000) or
must equal the remaining availability under the Borrowing Base. The aggregate
amount of all Loans in any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans must be greater than or
equal to $500,000 (any higher multiple of $100,000) or must equal the remaining
availability under the Borrowing Base. Borrower may have no more than three
Borrowings of Eurodollar Loans outstanding at any time. The obligation of
Borrower to repay to each Lender the aggregate amount of all Loans made by such
Lender, together with interest accruing in connection therewith, shall be
evidenced by a single promissory note (herein called such Lender's "Note") made
by Borrower payable to the order of such Lender in the form of Exhibit A with
appropriate insertions. The amount of principal owing on any Lender's Note at
any given time shall be the aggregate amount of all Loans theretofore made by
such Lender minus all payments of principal theretofore received by such Lender
on such Note. Interest on each Note shall accrue and be due and payable as
provided herein and therein, with Eurodollar Loans bearing interest at the
Eurodollar Rate and ABR Loans bearing interest at the Alternate Base Rate
(subject to the applicability of the Default Rate and limited by the provisions
of Section 10.9). Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Borrower may
borrow, repay, and reborrow hereunder.

     Section 2.2. Requests for New Loans. Borrower must give to Agent written
notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of any requested
Borrowing of new Loans to be advanced by Lenders. Each such notice constitutes a
"Borrowing Notice" hereunder and must:

          (a) specify (i) the aggregate amount of any such Borrowing of new ABR
     Loans and the date on which such ABR Loans are to be advanced, or (ii) the
     aggregate amount of any such Borrowing of new Eurodollar Loans, the date on
     which such Eurodollar Loans are to be advanced (which shall be the first
     day of the Interest Period which is to apply thereto), and the length of
     the applicable Interest Period; and

          (b) be received by Agent not later than 12:00 noon, New York City
     time, on (i) the day on which any such ABR Loans are to be made, or (ii)
     the third Business Day preceding the day on which any such Eurodollar Loans
     are to be made.

Each such written request or confirmation must be made in the form and substance
of the "Borrowing Notice" attached hereto as Exhibit B, duly completed. Each
such telephonic request shall be deemed a representation, warranty,
acknowledgment and agreement by Borrower as to the matters which are required to
be set out in such written confirmation. Upon receipt of any such Borrowing
Notice, Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice of the terms thereof. If all
conditions precedent to such new Loans have been met, each Lender will on the
date requested

                                       18

<PAGE>

promptly remit to Agent at Agent's office in Houston, Texas, the amount of such
Lender's new Loan in immediately available funds, and upon receipt of such
funds, unless to its actual knowledge any conditions precedent to such Loans
have been neither met nor waived as provided herein, Agent shall promptly make
such Loans available to Borrower. Unless Agent shall have received prompt notice
from a Lender that such Lender will not make available to Agent such Lender's
new Loan, Agent may in its discretion assume that such Lender has made such Loan
available to Agent in accordance with this section and Agent may if it chooses,
in reliance upon such assumption, make such Loan available to Borrower. If and
to the extent such Lender shall not so make its new Loan available to Agent,
such Lender and Borrower severally agree to pay or repay to Agent within three
days after demand the amount of such Loan together with interest thereon, for
each day from the date such amount was made available to Borrower until the date
such amount is paid or repaid to Agent, with interest at (i) the Federal Funds
Rate, if such Lender is making such payment and (ii) the interest rate
applicable at the time to the other new Loans made on such date, if Borrower is
making such repayment. If neither such Lender nor Borrower pay or repay to Agent
such amount within such three-day period, Agent shall in addition to such amount
be entitled to recover from such Lender and from Borrower, on demand, interest
thereon at the Default Rate, calculated from the date such amount was made
available to Borrower. The failure of any Lender to make any new Loan to be made
by it hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder,
if any, to make its new Loan, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure
of any other Lender to make any new Loan to be made by such other Lender.

     Section 2.3. Continuations and Conversions of Existing Loans. Borrower may
make the following elections with respect to Loans already outstanding: to
convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans, to convert Eurodollar Loans to ABR Loans
on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or to continue
Eurodollar Loans beyond the expiration of such Interest Period by designating a
new Interest Period to take effect at the time of such expiration. In making
such elections, Borrower may combine existing Loans made pursuant to separate
Borrowings into one new Borrowing or divide existing Loans made pursuant to one
Borrowing into separate new Borrowings. To make any such election, Borrower must
give to Agent written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in
writing) of any such conversion or continuation of existing Loans, with a
separate notice given for each new Borrowing. Each such notice constitutes a
"Continuation/Conversion Notice" hereunder and must:

          (a) specify the existing Loans which are to be continued or converted;

          (b) specify (i) the aggregate amount of any Borrowing of ABR Loans
     into which such existing Loans are to be continued or converted and the
     date on which such continuation or conversion is to occur, or (ii) the
     aggregate amount of any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans into which such
     existing Loans are to be continued or converted, the date on which such
     continuation or conversion is to occur (which shall be the first day of the
     Interest Period which is to apply to such Eurodollar Loans), and the length
     of the applicable Interest Period; and

          (c) be received by Agent not later than 12:00 noon, New York City
     time, on (i) the day on which any such continuation or conversion to ABR
     Loans is to occur, or

                                       19

<PAGE>

     (ii) the third Business Day preceding the day on which any such
     continuation or conversion to Eurodollar Loans is to occur.

Each such written request or confirmation must be made in the form and substance
of the "Continuation/Conversion Notice" attached hereto as Exhibit C, duly
completed. Each such telephonic request shall be deemed a representation,
warranty, acknowledgment and agreement by Borrower as to the matters which are
required to be set out in such written confirmation. Upon receipt of any such
Continuation/Conversion Notice, Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice of
the terms thereof. Each Borrowing Notice shall be irrevocable and binding on
Borrower. During the continuance of any Default, Borrower may not make any
election to convert existing Loans into Eurodollar Loans or continue existing
Loans as Eurodollar Loans. If (due to the existence of a Default or for any
other reason) Borrower fails to timely and properly give any notice of
continuation or conversion with respect to a Borrowing of existing Eurodollar
Loans at least three days prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable
thereto, such Eurodollar Loans shall automatically be converted into ABR Loans
at the end of such Interest Period. No new funds shall be repaid by Borrower or
advanced by any Lender in connection with any continuation or conversion of
existing Loans pursuant to this section, and no such continuation or conversion
shall be deemed to be a new advance of funds for any purpose; such continuations
and conversions merely constitute a change in the interest rate applicable to
already outstanding Loans.

     Section 2.4. Use of Proceeds. Borrower shall use all Loans to refinance
indebtedness under the Existing Credit Agreement or the Acquisition Agreement,
finance capital expenditures, and provide working capital for its operations and
for other general business purposes. In no event shall the funds from any Loan
be used directly or indirectly by any Person (i) for personal, family, household
or agricultural purposes or (ii) for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental
or ultimate, of purchasing, acquiring or carrying any "margin stock" or any
"margin securities" (as such terms are defined respectively in Regulation U and
Regulation G promulgated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System) or to extend credit to others directly or indirectly for the purpose of
purchasing or carrying any such margin stock or margin securities or (iii) for
the acquisition of any Person unless such acquisition has been approved by the
board of directors, management committee or partners, as the case may be of such
Person. Borrower represents and warrants that Borrower is not engaged
principally, or as one of Borrower's important activities, in the business of
extending credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying such margin
stock or margin securities.

     Section 2.5. Fees.

          (a) Commitment Fees. In consideration of each Lender's commitment to
     make Loans, Borrower will pay to Agent for the account of each Lender a
     commitment fee determined on a daily basis by applying the Commitment Fee
     Rate to such Lender's Percentage Share of the unused portion of the
     Borrowing Base on each day during the Commitment Period, determined for
     each such day by deducting from the amount of the Borrowing Base at the end
     of such day the Facility Usage. This commitment fee shall be due and
     payable in arrears on each ABR Payment Date and at the end of the
     Commitment Period.

                                       20

<PAGE>

          (b) Other Fees. In addition to all other amounts due to Agent under
     the Loan Documents, Borrower will pay fees to Agent as described in a
     letter agreement of even date herewith between Agent and Borrower.

     Section 2.6. Optional Prepayments. Borrower may, upon one Business Day's
notice in the case of ABR Loans, or three Business Days' notice in the case of
Eurodollar Loans, to Agent for the account of each Lender, from time to time and
without premium or penalty prepay the Notes, in whole or in part, so long as the
aggregate amounts of all partial prepayments of principal on the Notes equals
$500,000 or any higher integral multiple of $100,000, so long as Borrower pays
all breakage costs associated with the prepayment of any Eurodollar Loan as
provided in Section 3.5, and so long as Borrower does not make any prepayments
which would reduce the unpaid principal balance of any Loan to less than
$100,000 without first either (a) terminating this Agreement or (b) providing
assurance satisfactory to Agent in its discretion that Lenders' legal rights
under the Loan Documents are in no way affected by such reduction. Each
prepayment of principal of a Eurodollar Loan under this section shall be
accompanied by all interest then accrued and unpaid on the principal so prepaid.
Any principal or interest prepaid pursuant to this section shall be in addition
to, and not in lieu of, all payments otherwise required to be paid under the
Loan Documents at the time of such prepayment.

     Section 2.7. Mandatory Prepayments.

          (a) If at any time the Facility Usage exceeds the Commitment (whether
     due to a reduction in the Commitment in accordance with this Agreement, or
     otherwise), Borrower shall immediately upon demand prepay the principal of
     the Loans in an amount at least equal to such excess.

          (b) If at any time the Facility Usage is less than the Commitment but
     in excess of the Borrowing Base (such excess being herein called a
     "Borrowing Base Deficiency"), Borrower shall, within five Business Days
     after Agent gives notice of such fact to Borrower, either:

               (i) prepay the principal of the Loans in an aggregate amount at
          least equal to such Borrowing Base Deficiency, or

               (ii) give notice to Agent electing to prepay the principal of the
          Loans in up to three monthly installments in an aggregate amount at
          least equal to such Borrowing Base Deficiency, with each such
          installment equal to or in excess of one-third of such Borrowing Base
          Deficiency, and with the first such installment to be paid one month
          after the giving of such notice and the subsequent installments to be
          due and payable at one month intervals thereafter until such Borrowing
          Base Deficiency has been eliminated, or

               (iii) give notice to Agent that Borrower desires to provide Agent
          with deeds of trust, mortgages, chattel mortgages, security
          agreements, financing statements and other security documents in form
          and substance satisfactory to Agent, granting, confirming, and
          perfecting first and prior liens or security interests in collateral
          acceptable to Required Lenders, to the extent needed to

                                       21

<PAGE>

          allow Required Lenders to increase the Borrowing Base (as they in
          their reasonable discretion deem consistent with prudent oil and gas
          banking industry lending standards at the time) to an amount which
          eliminates such Borrowing Base Deficiency, and then provide such
          security documents within thirty days after Agent specifies such
          collateral to Borrower. If, prior to any such specification by Agent,
          Required Lenders determine that the giving of such security documents
          will not serve to eliminate such Borrowing Base Deficiency, then,
          within five Business Days after receiving notice of such
          determination, Borrower will elect to make, and thereafter make, the
          prepayments specified in either of the preceding subsections (i) or
          (ii) of this subsection (b).

          (c) Each prepayment of principal of a Eurodollar Loan under this
     section shall be accompanied by all interest then accrued and unpaid on the
     principal so prepaid. Any principal or interest prepaid pursuant to this
     section shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, all payments otherwise
     required to be paid under the Loan Documents at the time of such
     prepayment.

     Section 2.8. Initial Borrowing Base. During the period from the date hereof
to the first Determination Date the Borrowing Base shall be $80,000,000.

     Section 2.9. Subsequent Determinations of Borrowing Base.

     By each Evaluation Date (or in the case of an Evaluation Date pursuant to
clause (a) of the definition of "Evaluation Date", within thirty days after such
Evaluation Date), Borrower shall furnish to each Lender all information, reports
and data which Agent has then requested concerning Restricted Persons'
businesses and properties (including their oil and gas properties and interests
and the reserves and production relating thereto), together with the Engineering
Report described in Section 6.2 which is then due, if any; provided that in the
case of any "Evaluation Date" pursuant to clause (a) of the definition thereof,
Borrower shall deliver to Agent an Engineering Report of the type described in
Section 6.2(e) by such Evaluation Date. Within thirty days after receiving such
information, reports and data (or in the case of a determination of the
Borrowing Base with respect to an Evaluation Date described in clause (d) of the
definition of "Evaluation Date", within thirty days after such Evaluation Date),
Required Lenders shall agree upon an amount for the Borrowing Base and Agent
shall by notice to Borrower designate such amount as the new Borrowing Base
available to Borrower hereunder, which designation shall take effect immediately
on the date such notice is sent (herein called a "Determination Date") and shall
remain in effect until but not including the next date as of which the Borrowing
Base is redetermined. If Borrower does not furnish all such information, reports
and data by the date specified in the first sentence of this section, Agent may
nonetheless designate the Borrowing Base at any amount which Required Lenders
determine and may redesignate the Borrowing Base from time to time thereafter
until each Lender receives all such information, reports and data, whereupon
Required Lenders shall designate a new Borrowing Base as described above.
Required Lenders shall determine the amount of the Borrowing Base based upon the
loan collateral value which they in their discretion assign to the various oil
and gas properties included in the Collateral at the time in question and based
upon such other credit factors (including without limitation the assets,
liabilities, cash flow, hedged and unhedged exposure to price, foreign exchange
rate, and interest rate changes, business, properties,

                                       22

prospects, management and ownership of Borrower and its Affiliates) as they in
their discretion deem significant. It is expressly understood that Lenders and
Agent have no obligation to agree upon or designate the Borrowing Base at any
particular amount, whether in relation to the Commitment or otherwise, and that
Lenders' commitments to advance funds hereunder is determined by reference to
the Borrowing Base from time to time in effect, which Borrowing Base shall be
used to the extent permitted by Law and regulatory authorities, for the purposes
of capital adequacy determination and reimbursements under Section 3.2. Should
the last day for Lenders to redetermine the Borrowing Base in connection with a
particular Evaluation Date be a day other than a Business Day, the period for
such redetermination shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day.

     Section 2.10. Maturity Date and Requests for Extension. The Loans shall be
finally due and payable on the Maturity Date, subject to earlier maturity in
accordance with the terms hereof; provided, that the Maturity Date may be
extended at the written request of the Borrower for an additional one-year
period upon the written approval of each Lender, which shall be determined in
each Lender's sole discretion. Unless the Agent shall have received from the
Borrower a written request regarding the extension of the Maturity Date at least
sixty (60) days prior to the Maturity Date then in effect, the Lenders will not
consider extending and will not extend the Maturity Date. If the Agent has
received such a request for extension by such time, the Agent will notify the
Borrower whether or not Lenders will extend the Maturity Date in writing at
least thirty (30) days prior to the Maturity Date then in effect.

                       ARTICLE III - Payments to Lenders

     Section 3.1. General Procedures. Borrower will make each payment which it
owes under the Loan Documents to Agent for the account of the Lender Party to
whom such payment is owed. Each such payment must be received by Agent not later
than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date such payment becomes due and
payable, in lawful money of the United States of America, without set-off,
deduction or counterclaim, and in immediately available funds. Any payment
received by Agent after such time will be deemed to have been made on the next
following Business Day. Should any such payment become due and payable on a day
other than a Business Day, the maturity of such payment shall be extended to the
next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of a payment of principal or past
due interest, interest shall accrue and be payable thereon for the period of
such extension as provided in the Loan Document under which such payment is due.
Each payment under a Loan Document shall be due and payable at the place
provided therein and, if no specific place of payment is provided, shall be due
and payable at the place of payment of Agent's Note. When Agent collects or
receives money on account of the Obligations, Agent shall distribute all money
so collected or received, and each Lender Party shall apply all such money so
distributed, as follows:

          (a) first, for the payment of all fees and expenses of Agent and its
     counsel which are then due;

          (b) then for the payment of all other Obligations which are then due
     (and if such money is insufficient to pay all such Obligations, first to
     any reimbursements due Agent under Section 6.9 or 10.4 and second to the
     partial payment of all other

                                       23

<PAGE>

     Obligations then due in proportion to the amounts thereof, or as Lender
     Parties shall otherwise agree);

          (c) then for the prepayment of amounts owing under the Loan Documents
     (other than principal on the Notes) if so specified by Borrower;

          (d) then for the prepayment of principal on the Notes, together with
     accrued and unpaid interest on the principal so prepaid; and

          (e) last, for the payment or prepayment of any other Obligations.

All payments applied to principal or interest on any Note shall be applied first
to any interest then due and payable, then to principal then due and payable,
and last to any prepayment of principal and interest in compliance with Sections
2.6 and 2.7. All distributions of amounts described in any of subsections (c),
(d) or (e) above shall be made by Agent pro rata to each Lender Party then owed
Obligations described in such subsection in proportion to all amounts owed to
all Lender Parties which are described in such subsection.

     Section 3.2. Capital Reimbursement. If either (a) the introduction or
implementation of or the compliance with or any change in or in the
interpretation of any Law, or (b) the introduction or implementation of or the
compliance with any request, directive or guideline from any central bank or
other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of Law) affects or
would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by any
Lender Party (or any assignee of such Lender Party) or any corporation
controlling any Lender Party (or its assignee), then, upon demand by such Lender
Party, Borrower will pay to Agent for the benefit of such Lender Party, from
time to time as specified by such Lender Party, such additional amount or
amounts which such Lender Party shall reasonably determine to be appropriate to
compensate such Lender Party or any corporation controlling such Lender Party in
light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender Party reasonably
determines that the amount of any such capital would be increased or the rate of
return on any such capital would be reduced by or in whole or in part based on
the existence of the face amount of such Lender Party's Loans or commitments
under this Agreement.

     Section 3.3. Increased Cost of Eurodollar Loans. If any applicable Law
(whether now in effect or hereinafter enacted or promulgated, including
Regulation D) or any interpretation or administration thereof by any
governmental authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof
(whether or not having the force of Law):

          (a) shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any Lender Party
     of any principal, interest, or other amounts attributable to any Eurodollar
     Loan or otherwise due under this Agreement in respect of any Eurodollar
     Loan (other than taxes imposed on the overall net income of such Lender
     Party or any lending office of such Lender Party by any jurisdiction in
     which such Lender Party or any such lending office is located); or

          (b) shall change, impose, modify, apply or deem applicable any
     reserve, special deposit or similar requirements in respect of any
     Eurodollar Loan (excluding those for which such Lender Party is fully
     compensated pursuant to adjustments made in

                                       24

<PAGE>

     the definition of Eurodollar Rate) or against assets of, deposits with or
     for the account of, or credit extended by, such Lender Party; or

          (c) shall impose on any Lender Party or the interbank eurocurrency
     deposit market any other condition affecting any Eurodollar Loan, the
     result of which is to increase the cost to any Lender Party of funding or
     maintaining any Eurodollar Loan or to reduce the amount of any sum
     receivable by any Lender Party in respect of any Eurodollar Loan by an
     amount deemed by such Lender Party to be material,

then such Lender Party shall promptly notify Agent and Borrower in writing of
the happening of such event and of the amount required to compensate such Lender
Party for such event (on an after-tax basis, taking into account any taxes on
such compensation), whereupon (i) Borrower shall pay such amount to Agent for
the account of such Lender Party and (ii) Borrower may elect, by giving to Agent
and such Lender Party not less than three Business Days' notice, to convert all
(but not less than all) of any such Eurodollar Loans into ABR Loans.

     Section 3.4. Availability. If (a) any change in applicable Laws, or in the
interpretation or administration thereof of or in any jurisdiction whatsoever,
domestic or foreign, shall make it unlawful or impracticable for any Lender
Party to fund or maintain Eurodollar Loans, or shall materially restrict the
authority of any Lender Party to purchase or take offshore deposits of dollars
(i.e., "eurodollars"), or (b) any Lender Party determines that matching deposits
appropriate to fund or maintain any Eurodollar Loan are not available to it, or
(c) any Lender Party determines that the formula for calculating the Adjusted
Eurodollar Rate does not fairly reflect the cost to such Lender Party of making
or maintaining loans based on such rate, then, upon notice by such Lender Party
to Borrower and Agent, Borrower's right to elect Eurodollar Loans from such
Lender Party shall be suspended to the extent and for the duration of such
illegality, impracticability or restriction and all Eurodollar Loans of such
Lender Party which are then outstanding or are then the subject of any Borrowing
Notice and which cannot lawfully or practicably be maintained or funded shall
immediately become or remain, or shall be funded as, ABR Loans of such Lender
Party. Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender Party and hold it harmless
against all costs, expenses, claims, penalties, liabilities and damages which
may result from any such change in Law, interpretation or administration. Such
indemnification shall be on an after-tax basis, taking into account any taxes
imposed on the amounts paid as indemnity.

     Section 3.5. Funding, Losses. In addition to its other obligations
hereunder, Borrower will indemnify each Lender Party against, and reimburse each
Lender Party on demand for, any loss or expense incurred or sustained by such
Lender Party (including any loss or expense incurred by reason of the
liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by a Lender
Party to fund or maintain Eurodollar Loans), as a result of (a) any payment or
prepayment (whether authorized or required hereunder or otherwise) of all or a
portion of a Eurodollar Loan on a day other than the day on which the applicable
Interest Period ends, (b) any payment or prepayment, whether required hereunder
or otherwise, of a Loan made after the delivery, but before the effective date,
of a Continuation/Conversion Notice, if such payment or prepayment prevents such
Continuation/Conversion Notice from becoming fully effective, (c) the failure of
any Loan to be made or of any Continuation/Conversion Notice to become effective
due to any condition precedent not being satisfied or due to any other action or
inaction of any Restricted Person, or (d) any conversion (whether authorized or
required hereunder or

                                       25

<PAGE>

otherwise) of all or any portion of any Eurodollar Loan into an ABR Loan or into
a different Eurodollar Loan on a day other than the day on which the applicable
Interest Period ends. Such indemnification shall be on an after-tax basis,
taking into account any taxes imposed on the amounts paid as indemnity.

     Section 3.6. Reimbursable Taxes. Borrower covenants and agrees that:

          (a) Borrower will indemnify each Lender Party against and reimburse
     each Lender Party for all present and future income, stamp and other taxes,
     levies, costs and charges whatsoever imposed, assessed, levied or collected
     on or in respect of this Agreement or any Eurodollar Loans (whether or not
     legally or correctly imposed, assessed, levied or collected), excluding,
     however, any taxes imposed on or measured by the overall net income of
     Agent or such Lender Party or any lending office of such Lender Party by
     any jurisdiction in which such Lender Party or any such lending office is
     located (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, costs and charges being
     collectively called "Reimbursable Taxes" in this section). Such
     indemnification shall be on an after-tax basis, taking into account any
     taxes imposed on the amounts paid as indemnity.

          (b) All payments on account of the principal of, and interest on, each
     Lender Party's Loans and Note, and all other amounts payable by Borrower to
     any Lender Party hereunder, shall be made in full without set-off or
     counterclaim and shall be made free and clear of and without deductions or
     withholdings of any nature by reason of any Reimbursable Taxes, all of
     which will be for the account of Borrower. In the event of Borrower being
     compelled by Law to make any such deduction or withholding from any payment
     to any Lender Party, Borrower shall pay on the due date of such payment, by
     way of additional interest, such additional amounts as are needed to cause
     the amount receivable by such Lender Party after such deduction or
     withholding to equal the amount which would have been receivable in the
     absence of such deduction or withholding. If Borrower should make any
     deduction or withholding as aforesaid, Borrower shall within 60 days
     thereafter forward to such Lender Party an official receipt or other
     official document evidencing payment of such deduction or withholding.

          (c) If Borrower is ever required to pay any Reimbursable Tax with
     respect to any Eurodollar Loan, Borrower may elect, by giving to Agent and
     such Lender Party not less than three Business Days' notice, to convert all
     (but not less than all) of any such Eurodollar Loan into an ABR Loan, but
     such election shall not diminish Borrower's obligation to pay all
     Reimbursable Taxes.

          (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section, Borrower
     shall be entitled, to the extent it is required to do so by Law, to deduct
     or withhold (and not to make any indemnification or reimbursement for)
     income or other similar taxes imposed by the United States of America
     (other than any portion thereof attributable to a change in federal income
     tax Laws effected after the date hereof) from interest, fees or other
     amounts payable hereunder for the account of any Lender Party, other than a
     Lender Party (i) who is a U.S. person for Federal income tax purposes or
     (ii) who has the Prescribed Forms on file with Agent (with copies provided
     to Borrower) for the applicable year to the extent deduction or withholding
     of such taxes is not required as a

                                       26

<PAGE>

     result of the filing of such Prescribed Forms, provided that if Borrower
     shall so deduct or withhold any such taxes, it shall provide a statement to
     Agent and such Lender Party, setting forth the amount of such taxes so
     deducted or withheld, the applicable rate and any other information or
     documentation which such Lender Party may reasonably request for assisting
     such Lender Party to obtain any allowable credits or deductions for the
     taxes so deducted or withheld in the jurisdiction or jurisdictions in which
     such Lender Party is subject to tax. As used in this section, "Prescribed
     Forms" means such duly executed forms or statements, and in such number of
     copies, which may, from time to time, be prescribed by Law and which,
     pursuant to applicable provisions of (x) an income tax treaty between the
     United States and the country of residence of the Lender Party providing
     the forms or statements, (y) the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
     from time to time, or (z) any applicable rules or regulations thereunder,
     permit Borrower to make payments hereunder for the account of such Lender
     Party free of such deduction or withholding of income or similar taxes.

     Section 3.7. Change of Applicable Lending Office. Each Lender Party agrees
that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of any of
Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5 or 3.6 with respect to such Lender Party, it will,
if requested by Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy
considerations of such Lender Party) to designate another Lending Office,
provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender Party and
its Lending Office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, with
the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation
of any such section. Nothing in this section shall affect or postpone any of the
obligations of Borrower or the rights of any Lender Party provided in any of
Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5 or 3.6.

     Section 3.8. Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender Party seeks
reimbursement for increased costs under any of Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5 or
3.6, then within ninety days thereafter -- provided no Event of Default then
exists -- Borrower shall have the right (unless such Lender Party withdraws its
request for additional compensation) to replace such Lender Party by requiring
such Lender Party to assign its Loans, Notes, Acquisition Notes and its
commitments hereunder and under the Acquisition Agreement to an Eligible
Transferee reasonably acceptable to Agent and to Borrower, provided that: (i)
all Obligations of Borrower owing to such Lender Party being replaced (including
such increased costs, but excluding principal and accrued interest on the Notes
being assigned) shall be paid in full to such Lender Party concurrently with
such assignment, and (ii) the replacement Eligible Transferee shall purchase the
Note being assigned by paying to such Lender Party a price equal to the
principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon. In connection
with any such assignment Borrower, Agent, such Lender Party and the replacement
Eligible Transferee shall otherwise comply with Section 10.6. Notwithstanding
the foregoing rights of Borrower under this section, however, Borrower may not
replace any Lender Party which seeks reimbursement for increased costs under any
of Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5 or 3.6, unless Borrower is at the same time
replacing all Lender Parties which are then seeking such compensation. In
connection with any such replacement of a Lender Party, Borrower shall pay all
costs that would have been due to such Lender Party pursuant to Section 3.5 if
such Lender Party's Loans had been prepaid at the time of such replacement.

                                       27

<PAGE>

     Section 3.9. Participants. If a Lender has assigned a participation in its
Loans or commitment hereunder to another Person in accordance with Section 10.6,
any amount otherwise payable by Borrower to such Lender under Section 3.3
through 3.6 (in this section called "Increased Costs"), shall include that
portion of the Increased Costs determined by such Lender to be allocable to the
amount of any interest or participation transferred by such Lender in such
Lender's Loan or commitments under this Agreement.

Borrower represents and warrants to each Lender Party that:

     Section 5.1. No Default. No Restricted Person is in default in the
performance of any of the covenants and agreements contained in any Loan
Document. No event has occurred and is continuing which constitutes a Default.

     Section 5.2. Organization and Good Standing. Each Restricted Person is duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of its
jurisdiction of organization, having all powers required to carry on its

Restricted Person is duly qualified, in good standing, and authorized to do
business in all other jurisdictions within the United States wherein the
character of the properties owned or held by it or the nature of the business
transacted by it makes such qualification necessary. Each Restricted Person has
taken all actions and procedures customarily taken in order to enter, for the
purpose of conducting business or owning property, each jurisdiction outside the
United States wherein the character of the properties owned or held by it or the
nature of the business transacted by it makes such actions and procedures
desirable.

<PAGE>

     Section 5.3. Authorization. Each Restricted Person has duly taken all
action necessary to authorize the execution and delivery by it of the Loan
Documents to which it is a party and to authorize the consummation of the
transactions contemplated thereby and the performance of its obligations
thereunder. Borrower is duly authorized to borrow funds hereunder.

     Section 5.4. No Conflicts or Consents. The execution and delivery by the
various Restricted Persons of the Loan Documents to which each is a party, the
performance by each of its obligations under such Loan Documents, and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by the various Loan Documents, do
not and will not (i) conflict with any provision of (1) any Law, (2) the
organizational documents of any Restricted Person, or (3) any agreement,
judgment, license, order or permit applicable to or binding upon any Restricted
Person, (ii) result in the acceleration of any Indebtedness owed by any
Restricted Person, or (iii) result in or require the creation of any Lien upon
any assets or properties of any Restricted Person except as expressly
contemplated in the Loan Documents. Except as expressly contemplated in the Loan
Documents no consent, approval, authorization or order of, and no notice to or
filing with, any Tribunal or third party is required in connection with the
execution, delivery or performance by any Restricted Person of any Loan Document
or to consummate any transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents.

     Section 5.5. Enforceable Obligations. This Agreement is, and the other Loan
Documents when duly executed and delivered will be, legal, valid and binding
obligations of each Restricted Person which is a party hereto or thereto,

     "over-produced" status under gas balancing arrangements, and shall contain
     information and analysis comparable in scope to that contained in the
     Initial Engineering Report. This report shall distinguish (or shall be

     except as set forth on an exhibit to the certificate, on a net basis there
     are no gas imbalances, take or pay or other prepayments with respect to its

     those permitted by the Security Documents) which would require Borrower or
     such Subsidiary to deliver hydrocarbons produced from such oil and gas
     properties at some future time without then or thereafter receiving full
     payment therefor, (iv) none of the Covered Properties has been sold since
     the date of the last Borrowing Base determination except as set forth on an
     exhibit to the certificate, which certificate shall list all of such
     properties sold and in such detail as reasonably required by Agent, (v)
     attached to the certificate is a list of all Persons disbursing proceeds to
     Borrower or such Subsidiary from its oil and gas properties, and (vi) set
     forth on a schedule attached to the certificate is the present discounted
     value of all Covered Properties that are part of the Mortgaged Properties,
     (vii) oil and gas properties which comprise at least eighty percent (80%)
     of the total value of the reserves which are included within the Covered
     Properties are part of the Mortgaged Properties, and (viii) oil and gas
     properties which comprise at least ninety-five percent (95%) of the total
     value of the proved developed producing reserves which are included within
     the Covered Properties are part of the Mortgaged Properties.

the complete, direct chain of title (including without limitation, the original
lease), with respect to any Mortgaged Property, is filed of record in the
relevant parish or county real estate records.

     Section 6.17. Bank Accounts; Offset. To secure the repayment of the
Obligations Borrower hereby grants to each Lender Party a security interest, a
lien, and a right of offset, each of which shall be in addition to all other
interests, liens, and rights of any Lender Party at common law, under the Loan
Documents, or otherwise, and each of which shall be upon and against (a) any and
all moneys, securities or other property (and the proceeds therefrom) of
Borrower now or hereafter held or received by or in transit to any Lender Party
from or for the account of Borrower, whether for safekeeping, custody, pledge,
transmission, collection or otherwise, (b) any and all deposits (general or
special, time or demand, provisional or final) of Borrower with any Lender
Party, and (c) any other credits and claims of Borrower at any time existing
against any Lender Party, including claims under certificates of deposit. At any
time and from time to time after the occurrence of any Default, each Lender
Party is hereby authorized to foreclose upon, or to offset against the
Obligations then due and payable (in either case without notice to Borrower),
any and all items herein above referred to. The remedies of foreclosure and
offset are separate and cumulative, and either may be exercised independently of
the other without regard to procedures or restrictions applicable to the other.

     Section 6.18. Production Proceeds. Notwithstanding that, by the terms of
the various Security Documents, the grantors thereunder are and will be
assigning to Agent and Lenders all of the "Production Proceeds" (as defined
therein and in this section collectively called "Proceeds") accruing to the
property covered thereby, so long as no Default has occurred such Persons may
continue to receive from the purchasers of production all such Proceeds,
subject,

                                       40

<PAGE>

however, to the Liens created under the Security Documents, which Liens are
hereby affirmed and ratified. Upon the occurrence of a Default, Agent and
Lenders may exercise all rights and remedies granted under the Security
Documents, including the right to obtain possession of all Proceeds then held by
Restricted Persons or to receive directly from the purchasers of production all
other Proceeds. In no case shall any failure, whether purposed or inadvertent,
by Agent or Lenders to collect directly any such Proceeds constitute in any way
a waiver, remission or release of any of their rights under the Security
Documents, nor shall any release of any Proceeds by Agent or Lenders to
Restricted Persons constitute a waiver, remission, or release of any other
Proceeds or of any rights of Agent or Lenders to collect other Proceeds
thereafter.

     Section 6.19. Guaranties of Borrower's Subsidiaries. Each Subsidiary of
Borrower shall, promptly upon request by Agent, execute and deliver to Agent an
absolute and unconditional guaranty of the timely repayment of the Obligations
and the due and punctual performance of the obligations of Borrower hereunder,
which guaranty shall be satisfactory to Agent in form and substance. Borrower
will cause each of its Subsidiaries to deliver to Agent, simultaneously with its
delivery of such a guaranty, written evidence satisfactory to Agent and its
counsel that such Subsidiary has taken all action necessary to duly approve and
authorize its execution, delivery and performance of such guaranty and any other
documents which it is required to execute.

     delinquent or (ii) which are being contested as provided in Section 6.7 and
     which do not exceed $500,000 in the aggregate.

          (c) as to property which is Collateral, any Liens expressly permitted

     interests encumber only the equipment acquired with the proceeds of such
     Indebtedness.

          (e) deposits made to counterparties in connection with Hedging
     Contracts; provided that the aggregate amount of such deposits shall not
     exceed $1,000,000.

     nonperformance prior to actual default by such Restricted Person in
     performing its obligations thereunder, and (2) each such contract shall be
     with a counterparty or has a guarantor of the obligation of the
     counterparty who (unless such counterparty is a Lender Party or one of its
     Affiliates) at

                                       42

          (b) Any Restricted Person may enter into contracts for the purpose and
     effect of fixing prices on oil or gas which is expected to be produced by
     Restricted Persons or which the Restricted Persons are legally obligated to
     purchase under purchase contracts then in effect, provided that at all
     times: (1) the aggregate monthly oil production covered by all such

     of Projected Oil Production anticipated to be sold in the ordinary course
     of Restricted Persons' businesses for such month, (2) the aggregate monthly
     gas production covered by all such contracts (determined, in the case of
     contracts that are not settled on a monthly basis, by a monthly proration

     performing its obligations thereunder, and (4) each such contract is with a
     counterparty or has a guarantor of the obligation of the counterparty who
     (unless such counterparty is a Lender Party or one of its Affiliates) at
     the time the contract is made has long-term obligations rated BBB- or Baa3

     effect of fixing interest rates on a principal amount of indebtedness of
     such Restricted Person that is accruing interest at a variable rate,
     provided that (1) the aggregate notional amount of such contracts never
     exceeds seventy-five percent (75%) of the anticipated outstanding principal
     balance of the indebtedness to be hedged by such contracts or an average of
     such principal balances calculated using a generally accepted method of
     matching interest swap contracts to declining principal balances, (2) the
     floating rate index of each such contract generally matches the index used

entity. Borrower will not issue any securities other than shares of its common
stock and any options or warrants giving the holders thereof only the right to
acquire such shares; provided,

                                       43

<PAGE>

however, that the net proceeds of any such issuance shall first be applied as a
mandatory prepayment of the Loans under Section 2.7(a), if, at the time of such
issuance, the Facility Usage exceeds the Borrowing Base. No Subsidiary of

securities or any options, warrants or other rights to acquire such additional
shares or other securities except to Borrower.

     sold for fair consideration; provided that Borrower shall notify Agent in

     right to reduce the Borrowing Base in connection with each such sale by the
     value which has been attributed to such property in the Borrowing Base,
     such reduced Borrowing Base to be effective upon the date of each such
     sale.

          (d) other property (excluding Collateral) which is sold for fair
     consideration not in the aggregate in excess of $1,000,000 in any Fiscal
     Year, so long as property sold is not included in the Borrowing Base.

of Borrower without limitation to Borrower, (ii) by Borrower to any of its
shareholders on any date in an amount not to exceed the Available Distribution
Amount, and (iii) by Borrower to its Shareholders, provided such distribution is
a Permitted Tax Distribution. "Permitted Tax Distribution" means, with respect
to any shareholder of Borrower, distributions by Borrower to such shareholder to
pay taxes of such shareholder attributable to such shareholder's interest in
Borrower; provided that the computation of the amount of any such distribution
shall have been proven by Borrower to the reasonable satisfaction of Agent, and,

                                       44

<PAGE>

provided further that no such distribution described in clauses (i), (ii), or
(iii) above shall be permitted if (a) an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, (b) an Event of Default would occur as a result of such
distribution, or (c) a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists. "Available Distribution

immediately preceding clause (iv) may be made if a Default, Event of Default or
Borrowing Base Deficiency exists at the time such acquisition or Investment is
made or will occur as a result thereof.

     Section 7.8. Limitation on Credit Extensions. Except for Investments
permitted by Section 7.7, no Restricted Person will extend credit, make advances
or make loans other than (i) normal and prudent extensions of credit to
customers buying goods and services in the ordinary course of business, which
extensions shall not be for longer periods than those extended by similar
businesses operated in a normal and prudent manner, and (ii) loans to other
Restricted Persons, so long as no Default, Event of Default or Borrowing Base
Deficiency exists at the time such loan is made.

     Section 7.9. Transactions with Affiliates; Creation of Subsidiaries. No
Restricted Person will (i) engage in any material transaction with any of its
Affiliates on terms which are less favorable to it than those which would have
been obtainable at the time in arm's-length dealing with Persons other than such
Affiliates, provided that such restriction shall not apply to transactions among
the Restricted Persons; or (ii) create or acquire any Subsidiary after the date
hereof.

     Section 7.10. Certain Contracts; Amendments; Multiemployer ERISA Plans.
Except as expressly provided for in the Loan Documents, no Restricted Person

redeem equity interests held in it by Borrower, (iii) to repay loans and other
indebtedness owing by it to Borrower, or (iv) to transfer any of its assets to
Borrower. No Restricted Person will enter into any "take-or-pay" contract or
other contract or arrangement for the purchase of goods or services which
obligates it to pay for such goods or service regardless of whether they are
delivered or furnished to it. No Restricted Person will amend or permit any

                                       45

<PAGE>

amendment to any other contract or lease which releases, qualifies, limits,
makes contingent or otherwise detrimentally affects the rights and benefits of
Agent or any Lender under or acquired pursuant to any Security Documents. No
ERISA Affiliate will incur any obligation to contribute to any "multiemployer
plan" as defined in Section 4001 of ERISA.

     Section 7.11. Current Ratio. The ratio of Borrower's Consolidated current
assets to Borrower's Consolidated current liabilities will never be less than
1.0 to 1.0. For purposes of this section, Borrower's Consolidated current assets

                                       48

<PAGE>

either or both of the following: (1) terminate any obligation of Lenders to make
Loans hereunder, and (2) declare any or all of the Obligations immediately due
and payable, and all such Obligations shall thereupon be immediately due and
payable, without demand, presentment, notice of demand or of dishonor and
nonpayment, protest, notice of protest, notice of intention to accelerate,
declaration or notice of acceleration, or any other notice or declaration of any
kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower and each Restricted
Person who at any time ratifies or approves this Agreement.

     Section 8.2. Remedies. If any Default shall occur and be continuing, each
Lender Party may protect and enforce its rights under the Loan Documents by any
appropriate proceedings, including proceedings for specific performance of any
covenant or agreement contained in any Loan Document, and each Lender Party may
enforce the payment of any Obligations due it or enforce any other legal or
equitable right which it may have. All rights, remedies and powers conferred
upon Lender Parties under the Loan Documents shall be deemed cumulative and not
exclusive of any other rights, remedies or powers available under the Loan
Documents or at Law or in equity.

                               ARTICLE IX - Agent

     Section 9.1. Appointment and Authority. Each Lender Party hereby
irrevocably authorizes Agent, and Agent hereby undertakes, to receive payments
of principal, interest and other amounts due hereunder as specified herein and
to take all other actions and to exercise such powers under the Loan Documents
as are specifically delegated to Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together
with all other powers reasonably incidental thereto. The relationship of Agent
to the other Lender Parties is only that of one commercial lender acting as
administrative agent for others, and nothing in the Loan Documents shall be
construed to constitute Agent a trustee or other fiduciary for any holder of any
of the Notes or of any participation therein nor to impose on Agent duties and
obligations other than those expressly provided for in the Loan Documents. With
respect to any matters not expressly provided for in the Loan Documents and any
matters which the Loan Documents place within the discretion of Agent, Agent
shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, and it may
request instructions from Lenders with respect to any such matter, in which case
it shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully
protected and free from liability to all Lenders in so acting or refraining from
acting) upon the instructions of Required Lenders (including itself), provided,
however, that Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes it to
a risk of personal liability that it considers unreasonable or which is contrary
to the Loan Documents or to applicable Law. Upon receipt by Agent from Borrower
of any communication calling for action on the part of Lenders or upon notice
from any other Lender Party to Agent of any Default or Event of Default, Agent
shall promptly notify each other Lender Party thereof.

     Section 9.2. Exculpation, Agent's Reliance, Etc. Neither Agent nor any of
its directors, officers, agents, attorneys, or employees shall be liable for any
action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with
the Loan Documents, INCLUDING THEIR NEGLIGENCE OF ANY KIND, except that each
shall be liable for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent (a) may treat the payee of any
Note as the holder thereof until Agent receives written notice of

                                       49

<PAGE>

the assignment or transfer thereof in accordance with this Agreement, signed by
such payee and in form satisfactory to Agent; (b) may consult with legal counsel
(including counsel for Borrower), independent public accountants and other
experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted
to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel,
accountants or experts; (c) makes no warranty or representation to any other
Lender Party and shall not be responsible to any other Lender Party for any
statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with the Loan
Documents; (d) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the
performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the
Loan Documents on the part of any Restricted Person or to inspect the property
(including the books and records) of any Restricted Person; (e) shall not be
responsible to any other Lender Party for the due execution, legality, validity,
enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of any Loan Document or any
instrument or document furnished in connection therewith; (f) may rely upon the
representations and warranties of each Restricted Person and the Lenders in
exercising its powers hereunder; and (g) shall incur no liability under or in
respect of the Loan Documents by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or
other instrument or writing (including any telecopy, telegram, cable or telex)
believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper Person or Persons.

     Section 9.3. Credit Decisions. Each Lender Party acknowledges that it has,
independently and without reliance upon any other Lender Party, made its own
analysis of Borrower and the transactions contemplated hereby and its own
independent decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
Each Lender Party also acknowledges that it will, independently and without
reliance upon any other Lender Party and based on such documents and information
as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit
decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents.

     Section 9.4. Indemnification. Each Lender agrees to indemnify Agent (to the
extent not reimbursed by Borrower within ten (10) days after demand) from and
against such Lender's Percentage Share of any and all liabilities, obligations,
claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, actions, judgments, suits,
settlements, costs, expenses or disbursements (including reasonable fees of
attorneys, accountants, experts and advisors) of any kind or nature whatsoever
(in this section collectively called "liabilities and costs") which to any
extent (in whole or in part) may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against
Agent growing out of, resulting from or in any other way associated with any of
the Collateral, the Loan Documents and the transactions and events (including
the enforcement thereof) at any time associated therewith or contemplated
therein (including any Environmental Claims or violation or noncompliance with
any Environmental Laws by any Person or any liabilities or duties of any Person
with respect to the presence or Release of Hazardous Materials found in or
released into the environment).

THE FOREGOING INDEMNIFICATION SHALL APPLY WHETHER OR NOT SUCH LIABILITIES AND
COSTS ARE IN ANY WAY OR TO ANY EXTENT OWED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, UNDER ANY CLAIM
OR THEORY OF STRICT LIABILITY, OR ARE CAUSED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, BY ANY
NEGLIGENT ACT OR OMISSION OF ANY KIND BY AGENT,

provided only that no Lender shall be obligated under this section to indemnify
Agent for that portion, if any, of any liabilities and costs which is
proximately caused by Agent's own

                                       50

<PAGE>

individual gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined in a final
judgment. Cumulative of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse Agent
promptly upon demand for such Lender's Percentage Share of any costs and
expenses to be paid to Agent by Borrower under Section 10.4(a) to the extent
that Agent is not timely reimbursed for such expenses by Borrower as provided in
such section. As used in this section the term "Agent" shall refer not only to
the Person designated as such in Section 1.1 but also to each director, officer,
agent, attorney, employee, representative and Affiliate of such Person.

     Section 9.5. Rights as Lender. In its capacity as a Lender, Agent shall
have the same rights and obligations as any Lender and may exercise such rights
as though it were not Agent. Agent may accept deposits from, lend money to, act
as Trustee under indentures of, and generally engage in any kind of business
with any Restricted Person or their Affiliates, all as if it were not Agent
hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to any other Lender.

     Section 9.6. Sharing of Set-Offs and Other Payments. Each Lender Party
agrees that if it shall, whether through the exercise of rights under Security
Documents or rights of banker's lien, set off, or counterclaim against Borrower
or otherwise, obtain payment of a portion of the aggregate Obligations owed to
it which, taking into account all distributions made by Agent under Section 3.1,
causes such Lender Party to have received more than it would have received had
such payment been received by Agent and distributed pursuant to Section 3.1,
then (a) it shall be deemed to have simultaneously purchased and shall be
obligated to purchase interests in the Obligations as necessary to cause all
Lender Parties to share all payments as provided for in Section 3.1, and (b)
such other adjustments shall be made from time to time as shall be equitable to
ensure that Agent and all Lenders share all payments of Obligations as provided
in Section 3.1; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall in any
way affect the right of any Lender Party to obtain payment (whether by exercise
of rights of banker's lien, set-off or counterclaim or otherwise) of
indebtedness other than the Obligations. Borrower expressly consents to the
foregoing arrangements and agrees that any holder of any such interest or other
participation in the Obligations, whether or not acquired pursuant to the
foregoing arrangements, may to the fullest extent permitted by Law exercise any
and all rights of banker's lien, set-off, or counterclaim as fully as if such
holder were a holder of the Obligations in the amount of such interest or other
participation. If all or any part of any funds transferred pursuant to this
section is thereafter recovered from the seller under this section which
received the same, the purchase provided for in this section shall be deemed to
have been rescinded to the extent of such recovery, together with interest, if
any, if interest is required pursuant to Tribunal order to be paid on account of
the possession of such funds prior to such recovery.

     Section 9.7. Investments. Whenever Agent in good faith determines that it
is uncertain about how to distribute to Lenders any funds which it has received,
or whenever Agent in good faith determines that there is any dispute among
Lenders about how such funds should be distributed, Agent may choose to defer
distribution of the funds which are the subject of such uncertainty or dispute.
If Agent in good faith believes that the uncertainty or dispute will not be
promptly resolved, or if Agent is otherwise required to invest funds pending
distribution to Lenders, Agent shall invest such funds pending distribution; all
interest on any such investment shall be distributed upon the distribution of
such investment and in the same proportion and to the same Persons as such
investment. All moneys received by Agent for distribution to Lenders (other than
to the Person who is Agent in its separate capacity as a Lender) shall be held
by

                                       51

<PAGE>

Agent pending such distribution solely as Agent for such Lenders, and Agent
shall have no equitable title to any portion thereof.

     Section 9.8. Benefit of Article IX. The provisions of this Article (other
than the following Section 9.9) are intended solely for the benefit of Lender
Parties, and no Restricted Person shall be entitled to rely on any such
provision or assert any such provision in a claim or defense against any Lender
Party. Lender Parties may waive or amend such provisions as they desire without
any notice to or consent of Borrower or any Restricted Person.

     Section 9.9. Resignation. Agent may resign at any time by giving written
notice thereof to Lenders and Borrower; provided that if Agent so resigns
hereunder, it shall also resign as agent under the Acquisition Agreement. Each
such notice shall set forth the date of such resignation. Required Lenders shall
have the right to appoint a successor Agent; provided that they shall appoint
the same Person as successor agent under the Acquisition Agreement. A successor
must be appointed for any retiring Agent, and such Agent's resignation shall
become effective when such successor accepts such appointment. If, within thirty
days after the date of the retiring Agent's resignation, no successor Agent has
been appointed and has accepted such appointment, then the retiring Agent may
appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a financial institution organized
under the Laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof. Upon the
acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, the
retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. After any retiring Agent's resignation
hereunder the provisions of this Article IX shall continue to inure to its
benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent
under the Loan Documents.

     Section 9.10. Lenders to Remain Pro Rata. It is the intent of all parties
hereto that the pro rata share of each Lender in the Obligations and in the
Acquisition Agreement Obligations shall be substantially the same at all times
during the term of this Agreement. Accordingly, the initial Percentage Share of
each Lender in the Commitment will be the same as the initial Percentage Share
of such Lender in the Acquisition Commitment. All subsequent assignments and
adjustments of the interests of the Lenders in the Obligations and the
Acquisition Agreement Obligations will be made so as to maintain such a pro rata
arrangement; provided that for the purposes of determining these pro rata
shares, any Percentage Share held by any Lender's Affiliates shall be included
in determining the interests of such Lender.

                           ARTICLE X - Miscellaneous

     Section 10.1. Waivers and Amendments; Acknowledgments.

          (a) Waivers and Amendments. No failure or delay (whether by course of
     conduct or otherwise) by any Lender Party in exercising any right, power or
     remedy which such Lender Party may have under any of the Loan Documents
     shall operate as a waiver thereof or of any other right, power or remedy,
     nor shall any single or partial exercise by any Lender Party of any such
     right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of
     any other right, power or remedy. No waiver of any provision of any Loan
     Document and no consent to any departure therefrom shall ever be

                                       52

<PAGE>

     effective unless it is in writing and signed as provided below in this
     section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the
     specific instances and for the purposes for which given and to the extent
     specified in such writing. No notice to or demand on any Restricted Person
     shall in any case of itself entitle any Restricted Person to any other or
     further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. This Agreement
     and the other Loan Documents set forth the entire understanding between the
     parties hereto with respect to the transactions contemplated herein and
     therein and supersede all prior discussions and understandings with respect
     to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and no waiver, consent, release,
     modification or amendment of or supplement to this Agreement or the other
     Loan Documents shall be valid or effective against any party hereto unless
     the same is in writing and signed by (i) if such party is Borrower, by
     Borrower, (ii) if such party is Agent, by such party, and (iii) if such
     party is a Lender, by such Lender or by Agent on behalf of Lenders with the
     written consent of Required Lenders (which consent has already been given
     as to the termination of the Loan Documents as provided in Section 10.9).
     Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, Agent
     shall not, without the prior consent of each individual Lender, execute and
     deliver on behalf of such Lender any waiver or amendment which would: (1)
     waive any of the conditions specified in Article IV (provided that Agent
     may in its discretion withdraw any request it has made under Section
     4.2(e)), (2) increase the Commitment of such Lender or subject such Lender
     to any additional obligations, (3) reduce any fees payable to such lender
     hereunder, or the principal of, or interest on, such Lender's Note, (4)
     postpone any date fixed for any payment of any such fees, principal or
     interest, (5) amend the definition herein of "Required Lenders" or
     otherwise change the aggregate amount of Percentage Shares which is
     required for Agent, Lenders or any of them to take any particular action
     under the Loan Documents, (6) release Borrower from its obligation to pay
     such Lender's Note or (7) release all or substantially all of the
     Collateral.

          (b) Acknowledgments and Admissions. Borrower hereby represents,
     warrants, acknowledges and admits that (i) it has been advised by counsel
     in the negotiation, execution and delivery of the Loan Documents to which
     it is a party, (ii) it has made an independent decision to enter into this
     Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, without
     reliance on any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking by Agent
     or any Lender, whether written, oral or implicit, other than as expressly
     set out in this Agreement or in another Loan Document delivered on or after
     the date hereof, (iii) there are no representations, warranties, covenants,
     undertakings or agreements by any Lender Party as to the Loan Documents
     except as expressly set out in this Agreement or in another Loan Document
     delivered on or after the date hereof, (iv) no Lender Party has any
     fiduciary obligation toward Borrower with respect to any Loan Document or
     the transactions contemplated thereby, (v) the relationship pursuant to the
     Loan Documents between Borrower and the other Restricted Persons, on one
     hand, and each Lender Party, on the other hand, is and shall be solely that
     of debtor and creditor, respectively, (vi) no partnership or joint venture
     exists with respect to the Loan Documents between any Restricted Person and
     any Lender Party, (vii) Agent is not Borrower's Agent, but Agent for
     Lenders, (viii) should an Event of Default or Default occur or exist, each
     Lender Party will determine in its sole discretion and for its own reasons
     what remedies and actions it will or will not exercise or take at

                                       53

<PAGE>

     that time, (ix) without limiting any of the foregoing, Borrower is not
     relying upon any representation or covenant by any Lender Party, or any
     representative thereof, and no such representation or covenant has been
     made, that any Lender Party will, at the time of an Event of Default or
     Default, or at any other time, waive, negotiate, discuss, or take or
     refrain from taking any action permitted under the Loan Documents with
     respect to any such Event of Default or Default or any other provision of
     the Loan Documents, and (x) all Lender Parties have relied upon the
     truthfulness of the acknowledgments in this section in deciding to execute
     and deliver this Agreement and to become obligated hereunder.

          (c) Representation by Lenders. Each Lender hereby represents that it
     will acquire its Note for its own account in the ordinary course of its
     commercial lending business; however, the disposition of such Lender's
     property shall at all times be and remain within its control and, in
     particular and without limitation, such Lender may sell or otherwise
     transfer its Note, any participation interest or other interest in its
     Note, or any of its other rights and obligations under the Loan Documents.

          (d) Joint Acknowledgment. THIS WRITTEN AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN
     DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE
     CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL
     AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES.

THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.

     Section 10.2. Survival of Agreements; Cumulative Nature. All of Restricted
Persons' various representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in the
Loan Documents shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents and the performance hereof and thereof, including the
making or granting of the Loans and the delivery of the Notes and the other Loan
Documents, and shall further survive until all of the Obligations are paid in
full to each Lender Party and all of Lender Parties' obligations to Borrower are
terminated. All statements and agreements contained in any certificate or other
instrument delivered by any Restricted Person to any Lender Party under any Loan
Document shall be deemed representations and warranties by Borrower or
agreements and covenants of Borrower under this Agreement. The representations,
warranties, indemnities, and covenants made by Restricted Persons in the Loan
Documents, and the rights, powers, and privileges granted to Lender Parties in
the Loan Documents, are cumulative, and, except for expressly specified waivers
and consents, no Loan Document shall be construed in the context of another to
diminish, nullify, or otherwise reduce the benefit to any Lender Party of any
such representation, warranty, indemnity, covenant, right, power or privilege.
In particular and without limitation, no exception set out in this Agreement to
any representation, warranty, indemnity, or covenant herein contained shall
apply to any similar representation, warranty, indemnity, or covenant contained
in any other Loan Document, and each such similar representation, warranty,
indemnity, or covenant shall be subject only to those exceptions which are
expressly made applicable to it by the terms of the various Loan Documents.

                                       54

     Section 10.3. Notices. All notices, requests, consents, demands and other
communications required or permitted under any Loan Document shall be in
writing, unless otherwise specifically provided in such Loan Document (provided
that Agent may give telephonic notices to the other Lender Parties), and shall
be deemed sufficiently given or furnished if delivered by personal delivery, by
telecopy or telex, by delivery service with proof of delivery, or by registered
or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, to Borrower and Restricted
Persons at the address of Borrower specified on the signature pages hereto and
to each Lender Party at its address specified in the Lenders Schedule as its
lending offices for ABR Loans (unless changed by similar notice in writing given
by the particular Person whose address is to be changed). Any such notice or
communication shall be deemed to have been given (a) in the case of personal
delivery or delivery service, as of the date of first attempted delivery during
normal business hours at the address provided herein, (b) in the case of
telecopy or telex, upon receipt, or (c) in the case of registered or certified
United States mail, three days after deposit in the mail; provided, however,
that no Borrowing Notice shall become effective until actually received by
Agent.

     Section 10.4. Payment of Expenses; Indemnity.

          (a) Payment of Expenses. Whether or not the transactions contemplated
     by this Agreement are consummated, Borrower will promptly (and in any
     event, within 30 days after any invoice or other statement or notice) pay:
     (i) all transfer, stamp, mortgage, documentary or other similar taxes,
     assessments or charges levied by any governmental or revenue authority in
     respect of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any other
     document referred to herein or therein, (ii) all reasonable costs and
     expenses incurred by or on behalf of Agent (including attorneys' fees,
     consultants' fees and engineering fees, travel costs and miscellaneous
     expenses) in connection with (1) the negotiation, preparation, execution
     and delivery of the Loan Documents, and any and all consents, waivers or
     other documents or instruments relating thereto, (2) the filing, recording,
     refiling and re-recording of any Loan Documents and any other documents or
     instruments or further assurances required to be filed or recorded or
     refiled or re-recorded by the terms of any Loan Document, (3) the
     borrowings hereunder and other action reasonably required in the course of
     administration hereof, (4) monitoring or confirming (or preparation or
     negotiation of any document related to) Borrower's compliance with any
     covenants or conditions contained in this Agreement or in any Loan
     Document, and (iii) all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by or on
     behalf of any Lender Party (including reasonable attorneys' fees,
     consultants' fees and accounting fees) in connection with the defense or
     enforcement of any of the Loan Documents (including this section) or the
     defense of any Lender Party's exercise of its rights thereunder. In
     addition to the foregoing, until and all Obligations have been paid in
     full, Borrower will also pay or reimburse Agent for all reasonable
     out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Agent or its agents or employees in
     connection with the continuing administration of the Loans and the related
     due diligence of Agent, including travel and miscellaneous expenses and
     fees and expenses of Agent's outside counsel, reserve engineers and
     consultants engaged in connection with the Loan Documents.

          (b) Indemnity. Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender Party, upon
     demand, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, claims,
     losses, damages,

                                       55

<PAGE>

     penalties, fines, actions, judgments, suits, settlements, costs, expenses
     or disbursements (including reasonable fees of attorneys, accountants,
     experts and advisors) of any kind or nature whatsoever (in this section
     collectively called "liabilities and costs") which to any extent (in whole
     or in part) may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Lender
     Party growing out of, resulting from or in any other way associated with
     any of the Collateral, the Loan Documents and the transactions and events
     (including the enforcement or defense thereof) at any time associated
     therewith or contemplated therein (including any Environmental Claims or
     violation or noncompliance with any Environmental Laws by any Restricted
     Person or any liabilities or duties of any Restricted Person or any Lender
     Party with respect to the presence or Release of Hazardous Materials found
     in or released into the environment).

THE FOREGOING INDEMNIFICATION SHALL APPLY WHETHER OR NOT SUCH LIABILITIES AND
COSTS ARE IN ANY WAY OR TO ANY EXTENT OWED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, UNDER ANY CLAIM
OR THEORY OF STRICT LIABILITY, OR ARE CAUSED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, BY ANY
NEGLIGENT ACT OR OMISSION OF ANY KIND BY ANY LENDER PARTY,

provided only that no Lender Party shall be entitled under this section to
receive indemnification for that portion, if any, of any liabilities and costs
which is proximately caused by its own individual gross negligence or willful
misconduct, as determined in a final judgment. If any Person (including Borrower
or any of its Affiliates) ever alleges such gross negligence or willful
misconduct by any Lender Party, the indemnification provided for in this section
shall nonetheless be paid upon demand, subject to later adjustment or
reimbursement, until such time as a court of competent jurisdiction enters a
final judgment as to the extent and effect of the alleged gross negligence or
willful misconduct. As used in this section the term "Lender Parties" shall
refer not only to the Persons designated as such in Section 1.1 but also to each
director, officer, agent, attorney, employee, representative and Affiliate of
such Persons.

     Section 10.5. Joint and Several Liability; Parties in Interest. All
Obligations which are incurred by two or more Restricted Persons shall be their
joint and several obligations and liabilities. All grants, covenants and
agreements contained in the Loan Documents shall bind and inure to the benefit
of the parties thereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided,
however, that no Restricted Person may assign or transfer any of its rights or
delegate any of its duties or obligations under any Loan Document without the
prior consent of Required Lenders. Neither Borrower nor any Affiliates of
Borrower shall directly or indirectly purchase or otherwise retire any
Obligations owed to any Lender nor will any Lender accept any offer to do so,
unless each Lender shall have received substantially the same offer with respect
to the same Percentage Share of the Obligations owed to it. If Borrower or any
Affiliate of Borrower at any time purchases some but less than all of the
Obligations owed to all Lender Parties, such purchaser shall not be entitled to
any rights of any Lender Party under the Loan Documents unless and until
Borrower or its Affiliates have purchased all of the Obligations.

     Section 10.6. Assignments.

          (a) Any Lender may sell a participation interest in its commitment
     hereunder or any of its rights under its Loans or under the Loan Documents
     to any Person, provided

                                       56

<PAGE>

     that the agreement between such Lender and such participant must at all
     times provide: (i) that such participation exists only as a result of the
     agreement between such participant and such Lender and that such transfer
     does not give such participant any right to vote as a Lender or any other
     direct claims or rights against any Person other than such Lender, (ii)
     that such participant is not entitled to payment from any Restricted Person
     under any of Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5 or 3.6 of amounts in excess of
     those payable to such Lender under such sections (determined without regard
     to the sale of such participation), and (iii) unless such participant is an
     Affiliate of such Lender, that such participant shall not be entitled to
     require such Lender to take any action under any Loan Document or to obtain
     the consent of such participant prior to taking any action under any Loan
     Document, except for actions which would require the consent of all Lenders
     under the next-to-last sentence of subsection (a) of Section 10.1. No
     Lender selling such a participation shall, as between the other parties
     hereto and such Lender, be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as
     a result of the sale of such participation. Each Lender which sells any
     such participation to any Person (other than an Affiliate of such Lender)
     shall give prompt notice thereof to Agent and Borrower.

          (b) Except for sales of participations under the immediately preceding
     subsection (a), no Lender shall make any assignment or transfer of any kind
     of its commitments or any of its rights under its Loans or under the Loan
     Documents, except for assignments to an Eligible Transferee, and then only
     if such assignment is made in accordance with the following requirements:

               (i) Each such assignment shall apply to all Obligations owing to
          the assignor Lender hereunder and to the unused portion of the
          assignor Lender's commitments, so that after such assignment is made
          the assignor Lender shall have a fixed (and not a varying) Percentage
          Share in its Loans and Note and be committed to make that Percentage
          Share of all future Loans, the assignee shall have a fixed Percentage
          Share in such Loans and Note and be committed to make that Percentage
          Share of all future Loans, and the Percentage Share of the aggregate
          of the Commitment and the Acquisition Commitment of both the assignor
          and assignee shall equal or exceed $5,000,000.

               (ii) The parties to each such assignment shall execute and
          deliver to Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the "Register"
          (as defined below in this section), an Assignment and Acceptance in
          the form of Exhibit E, appropriately completed, together with the Note
          subject to such assignment and a processing fee payable to Agent of
          $4,000. Upon such execution, delivery, and payment and upon the
          satisfaction of the conditions set out in such Assignment and
          Acceptance, then (i) Borrower shall issue new Notes to such assignor
          and assignee upon return of the old Notes to Borrower, and (ii) as of
          the "Settlement Date" specified in such Assignment and Acceptance the
          assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and a Lender hereunder and
          Agent shall thereupon deliver to Borrower and each Lender a schedule
          showing the revised Percentage Shares of such assignor Lender and such
          assignee Lender and the Percentage Shares of all other Lenders.

                                       57

<PAGE>

               (iii) Each assignee Lender which is not a United States person
          (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal
          Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) for Federal income tax purposes,
          shall (to the extent it has not already done so) provide Agent and
          Borrower with the "Prescribed Forms" referred to in Section 3.6(d).

               (iv) Together with each such assignment of its rights and
          obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall assign the same
          Percentage Share of its rights and obligations under the Acquisition
          Agreement to the same Eligible Transferee or an Affiliate of such
          Eligible Transferee.

          (c) Nothing contained in this section shall prevent or prohibit any
     Lender from assigning or pledging all or any portion of its Loans and Note
     to any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A
     of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and any Operating
     Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank or to one of its Affiliates;
     provided that no such assignment or pledge shall relieve such Lender from
     its obligations hereunder.

          (d) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, each
     assignee Lender thereunder will be confirming to and agreeing with
     Borrower, Agents and each other Lender hereunder that such assignee
     understands and agrees to the terms hereof, including Article IX hereof.

          (e) Agent shall maintain a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance and
     a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of Lenders and
     the Percentage Shares of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each
     Lender from time to time (in this section called the "Register"). The
     entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest
     error, and Borrower and each Lender Party may treat each Person whose name
     is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes. The
     Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower or any Lender Party
     at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

     Section 10.7. Confidentiality. Each Lender Party agrees that it will take
all reasonable steps to keep confidential any proprietary information given to
it by any Restricted Person, provided, however, that this restriction shall not
apply to information which (i) has at the time in question entered the public
domain, (ii) is required to be disclosed by Law (whether valid or invalid) of
any Tribunal, (iii) is disclosed to any Lender Party's Affiliates, auditors,
attorneys, or agents, (iv) is furnished to any other Lender Party or to any
purchaser or prospective purchaser of participations or other interests in any
Loan or Loan Document (provided each such purchaser or prospective purchaser
first agrees to hold such information in confidence on the terms provided in
this section), or (v) is disclosed in the course of enforcing its rights and
remedies during the existence of an Event of Default.

     Section 10.8. Governing Law; Submission to Process. Except to the extent
that the law of another jurisdiction is expressly elected in a Loan Document,
the Loan Documents shall be deemed contracts and instruments made under the laws
of the State of Texas and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with and
governed by the laws of the State

                                       58

<PAGE>

of Texas and the laws of the United States of America, without regard to
principles of conflicts of law. Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code (which
regulates certain revolving credit loan accounts and revolving tri-party
accounts) does not apply to this Agreement or to the Notes. Borrower hereby
irrevocably submits itself and each other Restricted Person to the non-exclusive
jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the State of Texas and
agrees and consents that service of process may be made upon it or any
Restricted Person in any legal proceeding relating to the Loan Documents or the
Obligations by any means allowed under Texas or federal law.

     Section 10.9. Limitation on Interest. Lender Parties, Restricted Persons
and any other parties to the Loan Documents intend to contract in strict
compliance with applicable usury Law from time to time in effect. In furtherance
thereof such Persons stipulate and agree that none of the terms and provisions
contained in the Loan Documents shall ever be construed to create a contract to
pay, for the use, forbearance or detention of money, interest in excess of the
maximum amount of interest permitted to be charged by applicable Law from time
to time in effect. Neither any Restricted Person nor any present or future
guarantors, endorsers, or other Persons hereafter becoming liable for payment of
any Obligation shall ever be liable for unearned interest thereon or shall ever
be required to pay interest thereon in excess of the maximum amount that may be
lawfully charged under applicable Law from time to time in effect, and the
provisions of this section shall control over all other provisions of the Loan
Documents which may be in conflict or apparent conflict herewith. Lender Parties
expressly disavow any intention to charge or collect excessive unearned interest
or finance charges in the event the maturity of any Obligation is accelerated.
If (a) the maturity of any Obligation is accelerated for any reason, (b) any
Obligation is prepaid and as a result any amounts held to constitute interest
are determined to be in excess of the legal maximum, or (c) any Lender or any
other holder of any or all of the Obligations shall otherwise collect moneys
which are determined to constitute interest which would otherwise increase the
interest on any or all of the Obligations to an amount in excess of that
permitted to be charged by applicable Law then in effect, then all sums
determined to constitute interest in excess of such legal limit shall, without
penalty, be promptly applied to reduce the then outstanding principal of the
related Obligations or, at such Lender's or holder's option, promptly returned
to US Borrower or the other payor thereof upon such determination. In
determining whether or not the interest paid or payable, under any specific
circumstance, exceeds the maximum amount permitted under applicable Law, Lender
Parties and Restricted Persons (and any other payors thereof) shall to the
greatest extent permitted under applicable Law, characterize any non-principal
payment as an expense, fee or premium rather than as interest, exclude voluntary
prepayments and the effects thereof, and amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread
the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the
instruments evidencing the Obligations in accordance with the amounts
outstanding from time to time thereunder and the maximum legal rate of interest
from time to time in effect under applicable Law in order to lawfully charge the
maximum amount of interest permitted under applicable Law. In the event
applicable Law provides for an interest ceiling under Chapter 303 of the Texas
Finance Code (the "Texas Finance Code") as amended, for that day, the ceiling
shall be the "weekly ceiling" as defined in the Texas Finance Code; provided
that if any applicable Law permits greater interest, the Law permitting the
greatest interest shall apply. As used in this section the term "applicable Law"
means the Laws of the State of Texas or the Laws of the United States of
America, whichever Laws allow the greater interest, as such Laws now exist or
may be changed or amended or come into effect in the future.

     Section 10.10. Termination: Limited Survival. In its sole and absolute
discretion Borrower may at any time that no Obligations are owing elect in a
written notice delivered to Agent to terminate this Agreement. Upon receipt by
Agent of such a notice, if no Obligations are then owing this Agreement and all
other Loan Documents shall thereupon be terminated and the parties thereto
released from all prospective obligations thereunder. Notwithstanding the
foregoing or anything herein to the contrary, any waivers or admissions made by
any Restricted Person in any Loan Document, any Obligations under any of
Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5 or 3.6, and any obligations which any Person may
have to indemnify or compensate any Lender Party shall survive any termination
of this Agreement or any other Loan Document. At the request and expense of
Borrower, Agent shall prepare and execute all necessary instruments to reflect
and effect such termination of the Loan Documents. Agent is hereby authorized to
execute all such instruments on behalf of all Lenders, without the joinder of or
further action by any Lender.

     Section 10.11. Severability. If any term or provision of any Loan Document
shall be determined to be illegal or unenforceable all other terms and
provisions of the Loan Documents shall nevertheless remain effective and shall
be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law.

     Section 10.12. Counterparts. This Agreement may be separately executed in
any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate
counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to constitute one
and the same Agreement.

     Section 10.13. Waiver of Jury Trial, Punitive Damages, etc. Borrower and
each Lender Party hereby knowingly, voluntarily, intentionally, and irrevocably
(a) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by Law, any right it may have
to a trial by jury in respect of any litigation based hereon, or directly or
indirectly at any time arising out of, under or in connection with the Loan
Documents or any transaction contemplated thereby or associated therewith,
before or after maturity; (b) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by
Law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any such litigation any
"Special Damages", as defined below, (c) certifies that no party hereto nor any
representative or agent or counsel for any party hereto has represented,
expressly or otherwise, or implied that such party would not, in the event of
litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waivers, and (d) acknowledges that it
has been induced to enter into this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby by, among other things, the mutual
waivers and certifications contained in this section. As used in this section,
"Special Damages" includes all special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive
damages (regardless of how named), but does not include any payments or funds
which any party hereto has expressly promised to pay or deliver to any other
party hereto.

     Section 10.14. Release of Collateral. Agent and Lenders hereby agree that
Agent shall release from the Security Documents, upon written request by
Borrower and at Borrower's expense, interests in oil and gas properties sold by
any Restricted Person in compliance with Section 7.5(c), upon receipt of the
prepayment of the Loans required in connection with such sale, if any. No
further authorization from Lenders shall be required in connection with any such
release.

     Section 10.15. Restatement. This Agreement restates and amends the Existing
Revolving Credit Agreement in its entirety, and all of the terms and provisions
hereof shall supersede the terms and conditions thereof. Borrower hereby agrees
that (i) the Loans outstanding under the Existing Revolving Credit Agreement and
all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and (ii) all accrued and unpaid fees
under the Existing Revolving Credit Agreement shall be deemed to be outstanding
under and payable by this Agreement; provided that changes in the Percentage
Shares, interest rates, or fee rates shall not change the amounts accrued and
owing to each Lender under the Existing Revolving Credit Agreement.

                                       61

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement is executed as of the date first written

<PAGE>

                                                                    EXHIBIT 10.2

                     FIRST AMENDMENT TO AMENDED AND RESTATED
                                CREDIT AGREEMENT

     THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT (herein
called this "Amendment"), dated as of December 5, 2000, is entered into by and
among W&T OFFSHORE, INC., a Nevada corporation, as the borrower (the
"Borrower"), the various financial institutions parties hereto, as lenders
(collectively, the "Lenders"), THE TORONTO-DOMINION BANK, as issuer of Letters
of Credit (in such capacity together with any successors thereto, the "Issuer"),
and TORONTO DOMINION (TEXAS), INC., individually and as agent (in such capacity
together with any successors thereto, the "Agent") for the Lenders. Terms
defined in the Credit Agreement (as hereinafter defined) are used herein with
the same meanings as given them therein, unless the context otherwise requires.

                               W I T N E S S E T H

     WHEREAS, the Borrower, the Lenders and the Agent have heretofore entered
into a certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of February 24,
2000 (the "Credit Agreement"); and

     WHEREAS, the Borrower, the Lenders, the Issuer, and the Agent now desire to
amend the Credit Agreement to provide for, among other things, the issuance of
letters of credit by the Issuer (as defined hereinafter), as hereinafter
provided;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements
herein contained, the Borrower, the Lenders, the Issuer, and the Agent hereby
agree as follows:

     1. Amendment of Section 1.1. The definitions of "Available Distribution
Amount", "Calculation Date", "Facility Usage", "Lender Parties", "Loan
Documents", "Percentage Share", "Permitted Tax Distribution", and "Quarterly
Distribution Amount" in Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement are amended hereby
in their entirety to read as follows:

          ""Available Distribution Amount" means on any date (the "Calculation
     Date") the amount equal to (i) the sum of all Quarterly Distribution
     Amounts calculated for the period from January 1, 1999, until the end of
     the most recent Fiscal Quarter ended on or prior to the Calculation Date
     minus (ii) the sum of all Quarterly Distribution Amounts distributed during
     such period."

          ""Calculation Date" is defined in the definition of the term
     "Available Distribution Amount"."

          ""Facility Usage" means, at the time in question, the aggregate
     outstanding principal amount of all Loans of all Lenders plus all Letter of
     Credit Outstandings of all Issuers."

          ""Lender Parties" or "Lender Party" means, as the context may require,
     Agent, any Lender or any Issuer, or any of their respective successors,
     transferees or assigns."

<PAGE>

          ""Loan Documents"means this Agreement, the Acquisition Loan Documents,
     the Notes, all Letters of Credit, the Security Documents, any Hedge
     Contract between Borrower or its Subsidiaries and any then current Lender
     or an Affiliate of any then current Lender, and all other agreements,
     amendments, certificates, documents, instruments and writings at any time
     delivered in connection herewith or therewith (exclusive of term sheets,
     commitment letters, correspondence and similar documents used in the
     negotiation hereof, except to the extent the same contain information about
     Borrower or its Affiliates, properties, business or prospects)."

          ""Percentage Share" means, with respect to any Lender (a) when used in

     5. Amendment of Section 2.1. Section 2.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby
amended in its entirety to read as follows:

          "Section 2.1. Commitments to Make Loans; Notes; Participate in Letters
     of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Lender
     severally agrees to make loans to Borrower (herein called such Lender's
     "Loans") upon Borrower's request from time to time during the Commitment
     Period, provided that subject to Sections 3.3, 3.4 and 3.6, all Lenders are
     requested to make Loans of the same Type (or participate in Letters of
     Credit) in accordance with their respective Percentage Shares and as part
     of the same Borrowing. No Lender shall be permitted or required to (a) make
     any Loan if, after giving effect thereto (i) the Facility Usage would
     exceed the Borrowing Base determined as of the date on which the requested
     Loans are to be made or the Commitment, (ii) the Loan by such Lender would
     exceed such Lender's Percentage Share of the aggregate amount of Loans then
     requested from all Lenders, or (iii) the sum of the aggregate outstanding
     principal amount of all Loans of such Lender together with such Lender's
     Percentage Share of Letter of Credit Outstandings would exceed such
     Lender's Percentage Share of the Borrowing Base then outstanding or the
     Commitment; or (b) issue (in the case of an Issuer) or participate in (in
     the case of a Lender) any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect thereto
     (i) the Facility Usage would exceed the Borrowing Base determined as of the
     date on which the requested Letter of Credit is to be issued or the
     Commitment; (ii) such Lender's Percentage Share of all Letter of Credit
     Outstandings together with the aggregate outstanding principal amount of
     all Loans of such Lender would exceed such Lender's Percentage Share of the
     Borrowing Base then outstanding or the Commitment; or (iii) all letter of
     Credit Outstandings would exceed $5,000,000. The aggregate amount of all
     Loans in any Borrowing of ABR Loans must be greater than or equal to
     $500,000 (any higher, in multiples of $100,000) or must equal the remaining
     availability under the Borrowing Base. The aggregate amount of all Loans in
     any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans must be greater than or equal to $500,000
     (any higher, in multiples of $100,000) or must equal the remaining
     availability under the Borrowing Base. Borrower may have no more than five
     (5) Borrowings of Eurodollar Loans outstanding at any time. The obligation
     of Borrower to repay to each Lender the aggregate amount of all Loans made
     by such Lender, together with interest accruing in connection therewith,
     shall be evidenced by a single promissory note (herein called such Lender's
     "Note") made by Borrower payable to the order of such Lender in the form of
     Exhibit A with appropriate insertions. The amount of principal owing on any
     Lender's Note at any given time shall be the aggregate amount of all Loans
     theretofore made by such Lender plus such Lender's Percentage Share of the
     Letter of Credit Outstandings minus all payments of principal theretofore
     received by such Lender on such Note. Interest on each Note shall accrue
     and be due and payable as provided herein and therein, with Eurodollar
     Loans bearing interest at the Eurodollar Rate and ABR Loans bearing
     interest at the Alternate Base Rate (subject to the applicability of the
     Default Rate and limited by the provisions of Section 10.9). Subject to the
     terms and conditions hereof, Borrower may borrow, repay, and reborrow
     hereunder.

<PAGE>

     6. Amendment of Section 2.5. Section 2.5 of the Credit Agreement is hereby
amended by inserting the following clauses (c) and (d) after clause (b) thereof:

          "(c) Letter of Credit Stated Amount Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to
     the Agent, for the account of each Lender, a participation fee with respect
     to its participations in Letters of Credit, for the period from and
     including the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit to (but not
     including) the date upon which such Letter of Credit expires, at a rate per
     annum equal to Eurodollar Margin on the Stated Amount of such Letter of
     Credit, based on a year comprised of three-hundred and sixty (360) days
     (such participation fee, "Letter of Credit Fee"). A prorated portion of
     such fee shall be payable by the Borrower in arrears on each ABR Payment
     Date, and at the end of the Commitment Period for any period then ending
     for which such fee shall not theretofore have been paid, commencing on the
     first such date after the issuance of such Letter of Credit."

          "(d) Letter of Credit Issuance Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to each
     Issuer for its own account an issuance fee for each Letter of Credit issued
     by such Issuer equal to 0.0625% of the Stated Amount of such Letter of
     Credit. Such fee shall be payable by the Borrower on the date of issuance
     of such Letter of Credit. The Borrower also agrees to pay such Issuer's
     standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension
     of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder, which fees
     shall be payable to such Issuer within ten (10) days after demand."

     7. Amendment of Section 2.7. (i) Clause (a) of Section 2.7 of the Credit
Agreement is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows:

          "(a) If at any time the Facility Usage exceeds the Commitment (whether
     due to a reduction in the Commitment in accordance with this Agreement, or
     otherwise), Borrower shall immediately upon demand prepay the principal of
     the Loans (and, upon repayment of all Loans, shall provide cash collateral
     as set forth in Section 2.11(g)) in an amount at least equal to such
     excess."

     (ii) Sub-clause (i) of clause (b) of Section 2.7 of the Credit Agreement is
hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows:

          "(i) prepay the principal of the Loans (and, upon repayment in full of
     all Loans, shall provide cash collateral to Issuer as set forth in Section
     2.11(g)) in an aggregate amount at least equal to such Borrowing Base
     Deficiency, or"

     (iii) Sub-clause (ii) of clause (b) of Section 2.7 of the Credit Agreement
is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows:

          "(ii) give notice to Agent electing to prepay the principal of the
     Loans (and, upon repayment of all Loans, shall provide cash collateral as
     set forth in Section 2.11(g)) in up to three monthly installments in an
     aggregate amount at least equal to such Borrowing Base Deficiency, with
     each such installment equal

<PAGE>

     to or in excess of one-third of such Borrowing Base Deficiency, and with
     the first such installment to be paid one month after the giving of such
     notice and the subsequent installments to be due and payable at one month
     intervals thereafter until such Borrowing Base Deficiency has been
     eliminated, or"

     8. Amendment of Article II. Article II of the Credit Agreement is hereby
amended by inserting the following Section 2.11 after Section 2.10 thereof:

          "Section 2.11. Letters of Credit. From time to time on any Business
     Day prior to the end of the Commitment Period, each Issuer will issue, and
     each Lender will participate in, to the extent of each Lender's Percentage
     Share, the Letters of Credit, in accordance with the following terms:

          (a) Issuance Requests. By delivering to the Agent and the applicable
     Issuer an Issuance Request on or before 11:00 a.m., Central time, the
     Borrower may request, from time to time during the Commitment Period and on
     not less than three (3) nor more than ten (10) Business Days' notice, that
     such Issuer issue an irrevocable standby letter of credit in such form as
     may be mutually agreed to by the Borrower and such Issuer (each a "Letter
     of Credit"), in support of financial obligations of the Borrower incurred
     in the Borrower's ordinary course of business and which are described in
     such Issuance Request. Upon receipt of an Issuance Request, the Agent shall
     promptly notify the Lenders thereof. Each Letter of Credit shall by its
     terms: (i) be issued in a Stated Amount which (1) together with all Letter
     of Credit Outstandings and all outstanding Loans does not exceed (or would
     not exceed) the then Commitment or Borrowing Base or (2) together with all
     Letter of Credit Outstandings would not exceed $5,000,000; (ii) be stated
     to expire on a date (its "Stated Expiry Date") no later than the earlier
     (1) of one year from its date of issuance and (2) the end of the Commitment
     Period. So long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, by delivery
     to the applicable Issuer and the Agent of an Issuance Request at least
     three (3) but not more than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Stated
     Expiry Date of any Letter of Credit, the Borrower may request such Issuer
     to extend the Stated Expiry Date of such Letter of Credit for an additional
     period not to exceed the earlier of (i) one year from its date of extension
     or (ii) the end of the Commitment Period.

          No Issuer is under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:
     (i) any order, judgment or decree of any government agency or arbitrator
     shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuer from issuing
     such Letter of Credit, or any requirement of applicable Law or any request
     or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any government
     agency with jurisdiction over such Issuer shall prohibit, or request that
     the Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or
     such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuer with
     respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital
     requirement (for which such Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder)
     not in effect on the date hereof, or shall impose upon such Issuer any
     unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the date
     hereof and which such Issuer in good faith deems material to it; (ii) one

<PAGE>

     or more of the applicable conditions contained in Article IV is not then
     satisfied; (iii) the expiry date of any requested Letter of Credit is prior
     to the maturity date of any financial obligation to be supported by the
     requested Letter of Credit; (iv) any requested Letter of Credit does not
     provide for drafts, or is not otherwise in form and substance acceptable to
     such Issuer, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit shall violate any
     applicable policies of such Issuer; (v) any standby Letter of Credit is for
     the purpose of supporting the issuance of any letter of credit by any other
     Person; or (vi) such Letter of Credit is in a face amount denominated in a
     currency other than Dollars. The Uniform Customs and Practice for
     Documentary Credits most recently published by the International Chamber of
     Commerce at the time of issuance of any Letter of Credit shall (unless
     otherwise expressly provided in the Letter of Credit) apply to all Letters
     of Credit.

          (b) Issuances and Extensions. On the terms and subject to the
     conditions of this Agreement (including Article IV), the applicable Issuer
     shall issue Letters of Credit, and extend the Stated Expiry Dates of
     outstanding Letters of Credit, in accordance with the Issuance Requests
     made therefor. Each Issuer will make available the original of each Letter
     of Credit which it issues in accordance with the Issuance Request therefor
     to the beneficiary thereof (and will promptly provide each of the Lenders
     and the Borrower with a copy of such Letter of Credit) and will notify the
     beneficiary under any Letter of Credit of any extension of the Stated
     Expiry Date thereof.

          (c) [Intentionally Omitted]

          (d) Other Lenders' Participation. Each Letter of Credit issued
     pursuant to Section 2.11(b) shall, effective upon its issuance and without
     further action, be issued on behalf of all Lenders (including the Issuer
     thereof) pro rata according to their respective Percentage Shares. Each
     Lender shall, to the extent of its Percentage Share, be deemed irrevocably
     to have participated in the issuance of such Letter of Credit and shall be
     responsible to reimburse promptly the Issuer thereof for Reimbursement
     Obligations which have not been reimbursed by the Borrower in accordance
     with Section 2.11(e), or which have been reimbursed by the Borrower but
     must be returned, restored or disgorged by such Issuer for any reason, and
     each Lender shall, to the extent of its Percentage Share, be entitled to
     receive from the Agent a ratable portion of the Letter of Credit Fee
     received by the Agent pursuant to Section 2.5(c), with respect to each
     Letter of Credit. In the event that the Borrower shall fail to reimburse
     any Issuer, or if for any reason Loans shall not be made to fund any
     Reimbursement Obligation, all as provided in Section 2.11(e) and in an
     amount equal to the amount of any drawing honored by such Issuer under a
     Letter of Credit issued by it, or in the event such Issuer must for any
     reason return or disgorge such reimbursement, such Issuer shall promptly
     notify each Lender of the unreimbursed amount of such drawing and of such
     Lender's respective participation therein. Each Lender shall make available
     to such Issuer, whether or not any Default shall have occurred and be
     continuing, an amount equal to its respective participation in same day or
     immediately available funds at the office

<PAGE>

     of such Issuer specified in such notice not later than 11:00 a.m., Central
     time, on the Business Day (under the laws of the jurisdiction of such
     Issuer) after the date notified by such Issuer. In the event that any
     Lender fails to make available to such Issuer the amount of such Lender's
     participation in such Letter of Credit as provided herein, such Issuer
     shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender
     together with interest at the daily average Federal Funds Rate for three
     (3) Business Days (together with such other compensatory amounts as may be
     required to be paid by such Lender to the Agent pursuant to the Rules for
     Interbank Compensation of the council on International Banking or the
     Clearinghouse Compensation Committee, as the case may be, as in effect from
     time to time) and thereafter at the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans
     plus two percent (2%). Nothing in this Section shall be deemed to prejudice
     the right of any Lender to recover from any Issuer any amounts made
     available by such Lender to such Issuer pursuant to this Section in the
     event that it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the
     payment with respect to a Letter of Credit by such Issuer in respect of
     which payment was made by such Lender constituted gross negligence or
     wilful misconduct on the part of such Issuer. Each Issuer shall distribute
     to each other Lender which has paid all amounts payable by it under this
     Section with respect to any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuer such
     other Lender's Percentage Share of all payments received by such Issuer
     from the Borrower in reimbursement of drawings honored by such Issuer under
     such Letter of Credit when such payments are received.

          (e) Disbursements. Each Issuer will notify the Borrower and the Agent
     promptly of the presentment for payment of any Letter of Credit, together
     with notice of the date (the "Disbursement Date") such payment shall be
     made. Subject to the terms and provisions of such Letter of Credit, the
     applicable Issuer shall make such payment to the beneficiary (or its
     designee) of such Letter of Credit. Prior to 11:00 a.m., Central time, on
     the Disbursement Date, the Borrower will reimburse the applicable Issuer
     for all amounts which it has disbursed under or in respect of such Letter
     of Credit. In the event the applicable Issuer is not reimbursed by the
     Borrower on the Disbursement Date, or if such Issuer must for any reason
     return or disgorge such reimbursement, the Lenders (including such Issuer)
     shall, on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, fund
     the Reimbursement Obligation therefor by making, on the next Business Day,
     Loans which are ABR Loans as provided in Section 2.1 (the Borrower being
     deemed to have given a timely Borrowing Notice therefor for such amount);
     provided, however, for the purpose of determining the availability of the
     Commitments to make Loans immediately prior to giving effect to the
     application of the proceeds of such Loans, such Reimbursement Obligation
     shall be deemed not to be outstanding at such time. To the extent the
     applicable Issuer is not reimbursed in full in accordance with the
     preceding sentences, the Borrower's Reimbursement Obligation shall accrue
     interest at a fluctuating rate determined by reference to the interest rate
     applicable to ABR Loans, plus a margin of two percent (2%) per annum,
     payable on demand.

<PAGE>

          (f) Reimbursement. The Borrower's obligation (a "Reimbursement
     Obligation") under Section 2.11(e) to reimburse an Issuer with respect to
     each Disbursement (including interest thereon), and each Lender's
     obligation to make participation payments in each drawing which has not
     been reimbursed by the Borrower, shall be absolute and unconditional under
     any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim, or
     defense to payment which the Borrower may have or have had against any
     Lender or any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit, including any defense
     based upon the occurrence of any Default, any draft, demand or certificate
     or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged,
     fraudulent, invalid or insufficient, the failure of any disbursement to
     conform to the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit (if, in the
     applicable Issuer's good faith opinion, such disbursement is determined to
     be appropriate) or any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary
     of the proceeds of such disbursement, or the legality, validity, form,
     regularity, or enforceability of such Letter of Credit; provided, however,
     that nothing herein shall adversely affect the right of the Borrower or any
     Lender to commence any proceeding against the applicable Issuer for any
     wrongful disbursement made by such Issuer under a Letter of Credit as a
     result of acts or omissions constituting gross negligence or wilful
     misconduct on the part of such Issuer.

          (g) Deemed Disbursements. Upon either (i) the occurrence and during
     the continuation of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 8.1(j) or the
     occurrence of the end of the Commitment Period or (ii) the declaration by
     the Agent of all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the
     Loans and other Obligations to be due and payable and/or the commitments
     (if not theretofore terminated) to be terminated as provided in Section
     8.1, an amount equal to that portion of Letter of Credit Outstandings
     attributable to outstanding and undrawn Letters of Credit shall, at the
     election of the applicable Issuer acting on instructions from the Required
     Lenders, and without demand upon or notice to the Borrower, be deemed to
     have been paid or disbursed by such Issuer under such Letters of Credit
     (notwithstanding that such amount may not in fact have been so paid or
     disbursed), and, upon notification by such Issuer to the Agent and the
     Borrower of its obligations under this Section, the Borrower shall be
     immediately obligated to reimburse such Issuer the amount deemed to have
     been so paid or disbursed by such Issuer. Any amounts so received by such
     Issuer from the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be held as
     collateral security for the repayment of the Borrower's obligations in
     connection with the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuer. All amounts on
     deposit pursuant to this Section 2.11(g) shall, until their application to
     any Obligation or their return to the Borrower, as the case may be, at the
     Borrower's written request, be invested in high grade short term liquid
     investments as such Issuer may choose in its sole discretion reasonably
     exercised, which interest shall be held by the applicable Issuer as
     additional collateral security for the repayment of the Borrower's
     Obligations under and in connection with the Letters of Credit and all
     other Obligations. Any losses, net of earnings, and reasonable fees and
     expenses of such investments shall be charged against the principal amount
     invested. No Lender Party shall be liable for any loss resulting from any
     investment made by

<PAGE>

     such Issuer at the Borrower's request. Such Issuer is not obligated hereby,
     or by any other Loan Document, to make or maintain any investment, except
     upon written request by the Borrower. At any time when such Letters of
     Credit shall terminate and all Obligations to each Issuer are either
     terminated or paid or reimbursed to such Issuer in full, the Obligations of
     the Borrower under this Section shall be reduced accordingly (subject,
     however, to reinstatement in the event any payment in respect of such
     Letters of Credit is recovered in any manner from such Issuer), and such
     Issuer will return to the Borrower the excess, if any, of (A) the aggregate
     amount held by such Issuer and not theretofore applied by such Issuer to
     any Reimbursement Obligation over (B) the aggregate amount of all
     Reimbursement Obligations to such Issuer pursuant to this Section, as so
     adjusted. At such time when all Events of Default shall have been cured or
     waived, if the end of the Commitment Period shall not have occurred for any
     reason, each Issuer shall return to the Borrower all amounts then on
     deposit with such Issuer pursuant to this Section. Borrower hereby assigns
     and grants to such Issuer a continuing security interest in all such
     collateral security paid by it to such Issuer, all investments purchased
     with such collateral security, and all proceeds thereof to secure its
     Obligations under this Agreement, the Notes, and the other Loan Documents,
     and Borrower agrees that collateral security and investments shall be
     subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Security Documents.
     Borrower further agrees that such Issuer shall have all of the rights and
     remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in
     the State of Texas with respect to such security interest and that an Event
     of Default under this Agreement shall constitute a default for purposes of
     such security interest.

          (h) Nature of Reimbursement Obligations. The Borrower shall assume all
     risks of the acts, omissions, or misuse of any Letter of Credit by the
     beneficiary thereof. Neither any Issuer nor any Lender (except to the
     extent of its own gross negligence or wilful misconduct) shall be
     responsible for: (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy,
     genuineness, or legal effect of any Letter of Credit or any document
     submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance
     of a Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all
     respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent, or forged; (ii) the
     form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness, or legal effect of any
     instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a
     Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof
     in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any
     reason; (iii) failure of the beneficiary to comply fully with conditions
     required in order to demand payment under a Letter of Credit; (iv) errors,
     omissions, interruptions, or delays in transmission or delivery of any
     messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex, facsimile or otherwise; (v) any
     loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document or draft
     required in order to make a Disbursement under a Letter of Credit or of the
     proceeds thereof; (vi) any change in the time, manner or place of payment
     of, or in any other term of, all or any of the obligations of the Borrower
     in respect of any Letter of Credit; (vii) the existence of any claim,
     set-off, defense or other right that the Borrower may have at any time

<PAGE>

     any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such
     beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the Issuer (if other
     than the Lender or its Affiliates) or any other Person, whether in
     connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by
     the Letter of Credit or any unrelated transaction; (viii) any payment by an
     Issuer under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or
     certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of any Letter of
     Credit; or any payment made by an Issuer under any Letter of Credit to any
     Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession,
     assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other
     representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of any
     Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any insolvency
     proceeding; or (ix) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether
     or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance
     that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of,
     the Borrower or a guarantor. None of the foregoing shall affect, impair, or
     prevent the vesting of any of the rights or powers granted any Issuer or
     any Lender hereunder. In furtherance and extension, and not in limitation
     or derogation, of any of the foregoing, any action taken or omitted to be
     taken by any Issuer in good faith shall be binding upon the Borrower and
     shall not put such Issuer under any resulting liability to the Borrower.

          (i) Increased Costs; Indemnity. If by reason of (i) any change in
     applicable law, regulation, rule, decree or regulatory requirement or any
     change in the interpretation or application by any judicial or regulatory
     authority of any law, regulation, rule, decree or regulatory requirement,
     or (ii) compliance by any Issuer or any Lender with any direction, or
     requirement of any governmental or monetary authority, including, without
     limitation, Regulation D: (1) any Issuer or any Lender shall be subject to
     any tax (other than taxes on net income and franchises), levy, charge or
     withholding of any nature or to any variation thereof or to any penalty
     with respect to the maintenance or fulfillment of its obligations under
     this Section 2.11, whether directly or by such being imposed on or suffered
     by such Issuer or such Lender; (2) any reserve, deposit or similar
     requirement is or shall be applicable, increased, imposed or modified in
     respect of any Letters of Credit issued by any Issuer or participations
     therein purchased by any Lender; or (3) there shall be imposed on any
     Issuer or any Lender any other condition regarding this Section 2.11, any
     Letter of Credit or any participation therein, and the result of the
     foregoing is directly to increase the cost to such Issuer or such Lender of
     issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or of purchasing or maintaining
     any participation therein, or to reduce any amount receivable in respect
     thereof by such Issuer or such Lender, then and in any such case such
     Issuer or such Lender may, at any time after the additional cost is
     incurred or the amount received is reduced, notify the Agent and the
     Borrower thereof, and the Borrower shall pay within ten (10) days of demand
     such amounts as such Issuer or Lender may in good faith specify to be
     necessary to compensate such Issuer or Lender for such additional cost or
     reduced receipt, together with interest on such amount from the date
     demanded until payment in full thereof at a rate equal at all times to the
     Alternate Base Rate per annum. The determination by such Issuer or

<PAGE>

     Lender, as the case may be, of any amount due pursuant to this Section, as
     set forth in a statement setting forth the calculation thereof in
     reasonable detail, shall be rebuttable presumptive evidence of such
     amounts.

          In addition to amounts payable as elsewhere provided in this Section
     2.11, the Borrower hereby indemnifies, exonerates and holds each Issuer,
     the Agent and each Lender harmless from and against any and all actions,
     causes of action, suits, losses, costs, liabilities and damages, and
     expenses incurred in connection therewith (irrespective of whether such
     Issuer, the Agent or such Lender is a party to the action for which
     indemnification is sought), including reasonable attorneys' fees and
     disbursements, which such Issuer, the Agent or such Lender may incur or be
     subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of the issuance of the
     Letters of Credit, other than as a result of the gross negligence or wilful
     misconduct of such Issuer as determined by a court of competent
     jurisdiction, or the failure of such Issuer to honor a drawing under any
     Letter of Credit as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or
     wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or
     governmental authority."

     9. Amendment of Section 3.4 Section 3.4 of the Credit Agreement is hereby
amended in its entirety to read as follows:

          "Section 3.4 Availability. If (a) any change in applicable Laws, or in
     the interpretation or administration thereof of or in any jurisdiction
     whatsoever, domestic or foreign, shall make it unlawful or impracticable
     for any Lender Party to fund or maintain Eurodollar Loans (or to
     participate in, issue or maintain any Letter of Credit), or shall
     materially restrict the authority of any Lender Party to purchase or take
     offshore deposits of dollars (i.e., "eurodollars"), or (b) any Lender Party
     determines that matching deposits appropriate to fund or maintain any
     Eurodollar Loan (or to participate in, issue or maintain any Letter of
     Credit) are not available to it, or (c) any Lender Party determines that
     the formula for calculating the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate does not fairly
     reflect the cost to such Lender Party of making or maintaining Loans (or of
     participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit) based on
     such rate, then, upon notice by such Lender Party to Borrower and Agent,
     Borrower's right to elect Eurodollar Loans from such Lender Party shall be
     suspended to the extent and for the duration of such illegality,
     impracticability or restriction and all Eurodollar Loans (or participations
     in, issuances of or maintenance of any Letter of Credit) of such Lender
     Party which are then outstanding or are then the subject of any Borrowing
     Notice (or Issuance Request) and which cannot lawfully or practicably be
     maintained or funded shall immediately become or remain, or shall be funded
     as, ABR Loans of such Lender Party. Borrower agrees to indemnify each
     Lender Party and hold it harmless against all costs, expenses, claims,
     penalties, liabilities and damages which may result from any such change in
     Law, interpretation or administration. Such indemnification shall be on an
     after-tax basis, taking into account any taxes imposed on the amounts paid
     as indemnity."

Toronto Dominion (Texas), Inc., as Agent (the "Agent")

Lenders to the Revolving Credit Agreement referred to below (the "Lenders")

         Re:  Waiver Letter Relating to Conversion of W&T Offshore, Inc. into
              Texas corporation (the "Borrower")

Gentlemen:

     Reference is hereby made to that certain Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement, dated as of February 24, 2000, among the Borrower, the Lenders, the
Agent and the other parties named therein, as amended pursuant to that certain
First Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement as of December 5, 2000,
among the Borrower, the Lenders, the Issuer and the Agent, as further amended
pursuant to that certain Second Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement (Revolving Credit Agreement) dated effective as of May 31, 2002, among
the Borrower, the Lenders, the Issuer and the Agent, as further amended pursuant
to that certain Third Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
(Revolving Credit Agreement) dated effective as of December 2, 2002, among the
Borrower, the Lenders, the Issuer and the Agent, as further amended pursuant to
that certain Fourth Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
(Revolving Credit Agreement) dated effective as of May 22, 2003, among the
Borrower, the Lenders, the Issuer and the Agent, as further amended pursuant to
that certain Fifth Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (Revolving
Credit Agreement) dated effective as of December 12, 2003, among the Borrower,
the Lenders, the Issuer and the Agent (as so amended, and as from time to time
further amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified, the "Revolving
Credit Agreement"). Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meanings
ascribed to such terms in the Revolving Credit Agreement.

     Reference is hereby also made to Section 6.6 of the Revolving Credit
Agreement which, among other things, limits the Borrower from undertaking
certain corporate structural changes, except that pursuant to the terms thereof
the Borrower is permitted to merge itself into a Delaware corporation named W&T
Offshore, Inc. so long as the Borrower complies with the requirements of the
further proviso set forth in Section 6.6 of the Revolving Credit Agreement.

     The Borrower hereby informs the Agent, Issuer and Lenders that it intends
to become a Texas corporation through re-incorporation (instead of becoming a
Delaware corporation through merger) and hereby requests that the Agent, Issuer
and Lenders waive the prohibitions of Sections 6.6 of the Revolving Credit
Agreement solely for the purpose of permitting the Borrower to re-incorporate
itself as a Texas corporation, subject to the terms of this waiver letter.

     By their signatures below, the Agent, Issuer and Lenders hereby agree that
the Borrower may re-incorporate itself as a Texas corporation, so long as (i)
within thirty (30) days of such re-incorporation the Borrower shall have filed
or caused to be filed a copy of the evidence of such

<PAGE>

re-incorporation in the appropriate governmental offices of all jurisdictions in
which the Borrower owns real property constituting Collateral and (ii) the
Borrower shall have taken such other actions as are necessary and appropriate or
as otherwise requested by the Agent to ensure that the liens and security
interests granted pursuant to the Security Documents in and to all Collateral
remain valid perfected first priority liens and security interests in favor of
the Agent for the benefit of the Lender Parties and, in the case of mortgages or
deeds of trust referenced in Schedule 2 to the Revolving Credit Agreement,
including, without limitation, taking such other actions as may be required by
the Minerals Management Service.

     This letter shall become effective as of the date first above written upon
the receipt of this letter by the Agent, duly executed by the Borrower, the
Agent, the Issuer and the Required Lenders.

     This letter may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which
together shall constitute a single instrument, and it shall not be necessary
that any counterpart be signed by all the parties hereto. A facsimile copy of
this letter and signatures thereon shall be considered for all purposes as
originals.

     The Borrower hereby represents that as of the date hereof, no Default or
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. The Borrower acknowledges that,
except as expressly set forth herein, no portion of this letter shall be deemed
or interpreted in any way to be a waiver of any provision of the Revolving
Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or of any Default or Event of
Default under the Revolving Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or of
any right, power or remedy of the Agent, the Issuer or the Lenders under the
Revolving Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or applicable law.

     Please indicate your approval of the terms and provisions hereof by
executing this consent letter in the space provided below.

<PAGE>

                                                                    EXHIBIT 10.8

                   INDEMNIFICATION AND HOLD HARMLESS AGREEMENT

        THIS INDEMNIFICATION AND HOLD HARMLESS AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is
made as of April __, 2004, by and between W&T Offshore, Inc., a Texas
corporation (the "Company"), and ______________ ("Indemnitee").

        WHEREAS, in order to incentivize Indemnitee to serve, or to continue to
serve, as a director of the Company (in any such case, the "Service"), the
Company has agreed to indemnify Indemnitee as set forth below;

        NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and certain other good
and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the
parties, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

1. Indemnification. Effective as of the original date of Indemnitee's beginning
Service, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee and hold Indemnitee harmless if
the Indemnitee is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened,
pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative, arbitrative or investigative, and in any appeal in such action,
suit or proceeding, and in any inquiry or investigation that could lead to such
an action, suit or proceeding, against any and all liabilities, obligations
(whether known or unknown, or due or to become due or otherwise), judgments,
fines, fees, penalties, interest obligations, deficiencies, other actual losses
(for example, verifiable lost income related to time spent defending such claim
or action) and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation amounts paid
in settlement, interest, court costs, costs of investigators, reasonable fees
and expenses of attorneys, accountants, financial advisors and other experts)
incurred or suffered by Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit or
proceeding arising out of or pertaining to any actual or alleged action or
omission which arises out of or relates to the fact that Indemnitee is or was
serving as a director or officer of the Company or at the request of the Company
as a director, officer, trustee, employee, or agent of or in any other capacity
for another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise,
to the fullest extent permitted by then applicable law and the Company's
Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, each as amended (but in the case of any
such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Company to
provide the same or broader indemnification rights than permitted prior thereto)
(each such liability, obligation, judgment, fine, fee, penalty, interest
obligation, deficiency, other actual losses, and reasonable expenses being
referred to herein as a "Loss," and collectively, as "Losses").

2. Payment. Any Loss incurred by Indemnitee shall be paid in full by the Company
on a regular monthly basis. This indemnity applies even if the Indemnitee caused
the Loss through his or her negligence, strict liability or other fault;
however, if any Losses for which Indemnitee received payment from the Company
under this Agreement are determined by final judicial decision from which there
is no further right to appeal, to have been caused by Indemnitee under
circumstances with respect to which indemnification is not permitted by
applicable law or this Agreement (any such Loss, a "Non-Indemnification Loss"),
Indemnitee shall repay to the Company such Losses paid on behalf of Indemnitee
hereunder.

<PAGE>

3. Term. The indemnification rights provided hereby to Indemnitee shall continue
even though he or she may have ceased to be a director, officer, trustee,
employee, or agent of or in any other capacity for the applicable entity.

4. Notice and Coverage Prior to Notice. Indemnitee shall give notice (the
"Notice") to the Company within five days after actual receipt of service or
summons related to any action begun in respect of which indemnity may be sought
hereunder or actual notice of assertion of a claim with respect to which he
seeks indemnification; provided, however, that the Indemnitee's failure to give
such notice to the Company within such time shall not relieve the Company from
any of its obligations under Section 1 of this Agreement except to the extent
the Company has been materially prejudiced by Indemnitee's failure to give such
notice within such time period. Upon receipt of the Notice, the Company shall
assume the defense of such action, whereupon the Indemnitee shall not be liable
for any reasonable fees or expenses of counsel for Indemnitee or any other
Losses incurred thereafter with respect to the matters set forth in the Notice
and the Company shall reimburse the Indemnitee for all reasonable expenses
related to the action or claim incurred by the Indemnitee prior to the
Indemnitee's giving of the Notice.

5. Non-Exclusivity. The rights of Indemnitee hereunder shall be in addition to
any rights that Indemnitee may have under the Company's governance documents
(e.g. Articles of Incorporation, By-laws, Articles of Organization, Regulations,
etc.) (the "Governance Documents"), applicable law or otherwise and shall
survive any termination, resignation, death or other dismissal of Indemnitee. No
amendment or alteration of the Company's Governance Documents shall adversely
affect Indemnitee's rights under the Governance Documents or this Agreement.

6. Insurance. To the extent the Company maintains, at its expense, an insurance
policy or policies providing liability insurance with respect to the acts or
omissions covered by this Agreement, Indemnitee shall be covered by such policy
or policies, in accordance with its or their terms, to the maximum extent of the
coverage available there under.

7. Payment. The Company shall not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement
to make any payment in connection with any claim against Indemnitee to the
extent the Indemnitee has otherwise actually received, and is entitled to
retain, payment (under any insurance policy or otherwise) of the amounts
otherwise indemnifiable hereunder.

8. Enforceability. The indemnification contained in this Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties
hereto and their respective successors, assigns (including any direct or
indirect successor by purchase, merger, consolidation, liquidation or otherwise
to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company),
spouses, heirs and personal and legal representatives.

9. Binding Obligation. If this Agreement or any portion hereof shall be found to
be invalid on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the
Company shall nevertheless indemnify and hold harmless Indemnitee, as to costs,
charges and expenses (including court costs and attorneys' fees), judgments,
fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement with respect to any action, suit
or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, arbitrative or
investigative, and in any appeal in such action, suit or proceeding, and in any
inquiry or investigation that could lead to such an action, suit or proceeding,
to the full extent permitted by

<PAGE>

any applicable portion of this Agreement that shall not have been invalidated
and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

10. Governing Law; Venue. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with
and governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to the principles
of conflicts of laws. The parties agree that any litigation directly or
indirectly relating to this Agreement must be brought before and determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction within Harris County, Texas, and the parties
hereby agree to waive any rights to object to, and hereby agree to submit to,
the jurisdiction of such courts.

11. Right to Sue; Attorneys' Fees and Costs. If a claim by Indemnitee for
payment of Losses hereunder is not paid in full by the Company within forty-five
(45) days after a written claim has been delivered to the Company, Indemnitee
may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Company to recover the unpaid
amount of the claim. If successful in whole or in part in any such suit,
Indemnitee shall be entitled to be paid also the reasonable costs and expenses
of prosecuting such suit. In any suit brought by Indemnitee to enforce any right
hereunder (including, without limitation, the right to indemnification), the
burden of proving that Indemnitee is not entitled to such right shall be borne
by the Company. If a claim by the Company for repayment of any
Non-Indemnification Losses previously paid on behalf of Indemnitee hereunder is
not repaid in full to the Company within forty-five (45) days after such ruling
has been delivered to Indemnitee, the Company may at any time thereafter bring
suit against the Indemnitee to recover the unpaid amount.

12. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure
to the benefit of the heirs, successors and assigns of each party to this
Agreement. 13. Amendment. This Agreement may be amended, modified or
supplemented only by a written instrument executed by each of the parties
hereto.

14. Facsimile and Counterpart Signature. This Agreement may be executed by
facsimile signature and in one or more counterparts, each of which shall for all
purposes be deemed an original and all of which shall constitute the same
instrument, but only one of which need be produced.

        IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have executed this Agreement as of
the date first above written.

                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

     THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this "Agreement"), is made and entered into as
of the 21st day of April 2004 to be effective on the date that the Company's
initial public offering of its common stock is consummated (the "Effective
Date"), by and between W&T OFFSHORE, INC., a Texas corporation (the "Company"),
and Tracy W. Krohn, an individual residing in Houston, Texas (the "Executive").

                                   WITNESSETH:
                                   ----------


     WHEREAS, the Executive is the Company's founder and majority shareholder as
well as its Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), President and Treasurer; and

     WHEREAS, the Executive has been rendering services to the Company under an
Employment Agreement dated December 2, 2002; and

     WHEREAS, in light of the Company's planned Initial Public Offering, the
Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") wishes to enter into a new
employment agreement with Executive in order to assure his continued services
and in order to fairly compensate him for the additional duties he will be
undertaking once the Company becomes a public company; and

     WHEREAS, the Board is concerned that, once the Company becomes a public
company, it may be approached by third parties about a possible business
combination with the Company, and considers it imperative in such circumstances
that the Company be able to rely upon the Executive to continue in his position
and that the Company be able to receive and rely upon the Executive's assessment
of such proposals and advice concerning the best interests of the Company and
its stockholders, without concern that the Executive might be distracted by the
personal uncertainties and risks created by such a third party proposal; and

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements
contained in this Agreement, the parties agree as follows:

     1. EMPLOYMENT AND TERM. The Executive's December 2, 2002 Employment
Agreement (the "2002 Employment Agreement") is hereby superceded by this
Agreement, and effective as of the Effective Date, Executive shall have no
further rights and the Company shall have no further liabilities under the 2002
Employment Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement, the Company hereby agrees to employ the Executive, and the Executive
accepts such employment, as Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and President of the
Company for the period beginning on the Effective Date and continuing until the
earlier of (i) the third anniversary of the Effective Date (the "Initial
Employment Term"), or (ii) the termination of the Executive's employment
pursuant to the terms hereof. This Agreement will be automatically extended for
an additional year on the third anniversary date hereof and


                                       -1-

<PAGE>


every subsequent anniversary date unless terminated by either the Company or the
Executive by the giving of written notice to the other party no later than three
(3) months prior to the third anniversary date hereof or any such subsequent
anniversary date, as the case may be. The entire period that Executive is
employed under this Agreement shall be referred to in this Agreement as the
"Employment Term."

     2. COMPENSATION; BENEFITS.

     (A) COMPENSATION. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
the Company shall pay the Executive an annual base salary (the "Base Salary") of
$500,000, payable in accordance with the Company's regular payroll practices;
provided, however, that the Compensation Committee of the Board shall have the
authority to increase (but not decrease) the amount of the Base Salary at any
time during the Employment Term.

     (B) BONUS. In addition to the Base Salary, the Executive shall be entitled
to receive an annual bonus payable in cash, as promptly as practicable, but no
later than 30 days following the Company's receipt of an audit opinion covering
its most recent fiscal year's financial statements up to a maximum amount of
$250,000, which bonus may be increased as determined by the Compensation
Committee of the Board.

     (C) BENEFITS. While employed under this Agreement, the Executive shall be
entitled to participate in all employee benefit plans and programs that the
Company makes available to its employees generally, subject to applicable law
and the terms thereof as in effect from time to time. The Executive is also
entitled to use Company cars for incidental personal use. In addition, the
Executive's mother and stepfather will continue to receive medical insurance
coverage from the Company during the Employment Term to the same extent as they
receive coverage on the date hereof.

     3. BUSINESS EXPENSES. The Company shall reimburse the Executive for all
reasonable and ordinary business expenses that are properly documented with
receipts and are incurred in the performance of his services hereunder, in
accordance with Company policy as in effect from time to time.

     4. DUTIES.

     (A) REPORTING RELATIONSHIP/ PERFORMANCE OF DUTIES. The Executive shall
report to the Company's Board. The Executive shall perform such duties and
discharge such responsibilities as commensurate with the positions held by the
Executive, subject to the direction of the Board. The Executive shall devote his
full time and efforts to performing such duties faithfully, diligently and to
the best of his abilities to advance the interests of the Company. The Executive
shall fully comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations and abide by
all policies and procedures adopted by the Company from time to time.

     (B) COMPANY ENTITLED TO EXECUTIVE'S EXCLUSIVE SERVICES. While employed
under this Agreement, the Executive shall not directly or indirectly consult,
advise, be retained or employed by, or in any manner perform any services with
or for any other business or entity in any line of business, regardless of
whether such line of business is competitive with the Company's Business (as
defined below), without first obtaining the prior written consent of the Board,
except that this restriction shall not apply to the Executive's incidental
involvement in the activities of W&T Offshore, LLC or the business of
Krohn-Barbour Racing, LLC. The foregoing shall not prohibit the Executive from
managing his personal investments, or investing his assets or engaging in such
personal, charitable or other non-employment activities that do not interfere
with his full-time employment hereunder and that do not violate any other
provision of this Agreement.

     (C) OTHER POSITIONS. In addition to performing his duties as CEO and
President, the Executive, if so elected or appointed, shall, without additional
compensation, serve as a member of the Board and committees of the Board, and
shall also hold additional executive offices in the Company and any Company
subsidiary or affiliate if requested to do by the Board.

     5. RIGHT TO CONTRACT; Conflict of Interest. The Executive hereby represents
and warrants to the Company that (a) he has full right and authority to enter
into this Agreement and to perform his obligations hereunder, (b) the execution
and delivery of this Agreement by the Executive and the performance of the
Executive's obligations hereunder will not conflict with or breach any
agreement, order or decree to which the Executive is a party or by which he is
bound, and (c) he is not a party to or bound by any agreement or commitment, or
subject to any restrictions (including confidentiality or non-competition
restrictions), in connection with any prior employment or activities.

ten days after written notice thereof, to participate, on the same terms and
conditions as those accepted by W&T Offshore, LLC in such new exploration well,
in up to 50% of the interest that W&T Offshore, LLC would be entitled to
participate; provided, however that, after a Change of Control, W&T Offshore,
LLC shall not be considered to Compete with the Company's Business in connection
with engaging in a new exploration well or marketing the production of such well
whether or not W&T Offshore, LLC offers the Company the right to participate in
such exploration or marketing.

     (iii) "Competitor" means any Person engaged directly or indirectly in the
Business.

     (iv) "Immediate Family" means, with respect to any individual, such

directly or indirectly, one or more of the Persons described above and/or such
individual).

<PAGE>


     (C) NON-DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION. The Board agrees to provide the
Executive with immediate continued access to the Company's trade secrets and
confidential information. Except with the prior consent of or as directed by the
Board, the Executive will, both during the time this Agreement is in effect and
thereafter, keep confidential and not divulge to any other Person or use for his
personal benefit or the benefit of others, any of the Company's confidential or
proprietary information and trade secrets, including, but not limited to,
confidential or proprietary information and trade secrets relating to such
matters as the Company's finances and operations, the names of the Company's
customers and the names of the Company's suppliers. All papers, books and
records of every description including, without limitation, computer software,
programs, modules or source codes as well as reproductions thereof relating to
the business and affairs of the Company, or its customers, joint venture
partners or joint working interest owners and which constitute Company
confidential or proprietary information, whether or not prepared by the
Executive, shall be the sole and exclusive property of the Company, and the
Executive shall surrender them to the Company, including all copies thereof, at
any time upon request, both during the time this Agreement is in effect and
thereafter. The Executive agrees that he will use such confidential information
solely for purposes of this Agreement and the employment services to be provided
hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the confidential information and trade
secrets referred to in this paragraph shall not include information and secrets
that (i) become generally available to the public other than as a result of
disclosure by the Executive; (ii) become available to the Executive on a
non-confidential basis from a person other than the Company, who is not known by
the Executive to be under an obligation of confidentiality with respect thereto;
or (iii) are required to be disclosed by law or by order of a court.

     (D) WORK PRODUCT. The Executive agrees that all copyrights, patents, trade
secrets or other intellectual property rights associated with any ideas,
concepts, techniques, inventions, processes, or works of authorship developed or
created by him during his employment by the Company and for a period of six
months thereafter, that (i) relate, whether directly or indirectly, to the
Company's actual or anticipated business, research or development, or (ii) are
suggested by or as a result of any work performed by the Executive on the
Company's behalf, shall, to the extent possible, be considered works made for
hire within the meaning of the Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. ss. 101 et. seq.) (the
"Work Product"). All Work Product shall be and remain the property of the
Company. To the extent that any such Work Product may not, under applicable law,
be considered works made for hire, the Executive hereby grants, transfers,
assigns, conveys and relinquishes, and agrees to grant, transfer, assign, convey
and relinquish from time to time, on an exclusive basis, all of his right, title
and interest in and to the Work Product to the Company in perpetuity or for the
longest period otherwise permitted by law. Consistent with his recognition of
the Company's absolute ownership of all Work Product, the Executive agrees that
he shall (i) not use any Work Product for the benefit of any party other than
the Company and (ii) perform such acts and execute such documents and
instruments as the Company may now or hereafter deem reasonably necessary or
desirable to evidence the transfer of absolute ownership of all Work Product to
the Company; provided, however, if following ten (10) days' written notice from
the


                                       -5-

<PAGE>

Company, the Executive refuses, or is unable, due to Disability (as defined
below), incapacity, or death, to execute such documents relating to the Work
Product, he hereby appoints any of the Company's officers as his
attorney-in-fact to execute such documents on his behalf. This agency is coupled
with an interest and is irrevocable without the Company's prior written consent.

     (E) Warranty as to Work Product. The Executive represents and warrants to
the Company that (i) there are no claims that would adversely affect his ability
to assign all right, title and interest in and to the Work Product to the
Company; (ii) the Work Product does not violate any patent, copyright or other
proprietary right of any third party; (iii) the Executive has the legal right to
grant the Company the assignment of his interest in the Work Product as set
forth in this Agreement; and (iv) he has not brought and will not bring to his
employment hereunder, or use in connection with such employment, any trade
secret, confidential or proprietary information, or computer software, except
for software that he has a right to use for the purpose for which it shall be
used, in his employment hereunder.

     (F) Non-Competition/Non-Solicitation. Subject to Section 7, the Executive
agrees that, during the Employment Term and for a period of two (2) years
thereafter (such period, the "Non-Compete Period"), the Executive shall not,
directly or indirectly, either for his own account or for any other Person:

     (i) compete with the Company;

     (ii) interfere with or disrupt, or attempt to interfere with or disrupt,
the relationship, contractual or otherwise, between the Company and any
customer, supplier or employee of the Company, assist a Competitor of the
Company by providing consulting or other advisory services to that Competitor or
otherwise;

     (iii) solicit for employment, engage and/or hire, whether directly or
indirectly, any individual who is then employed by the Company or engaged by the
Company as an independent contractor or consultant; and/or encourage or induce,
whether directly or indirectly, any individual who is then employed by the
Company or engaged by the Company as an independent contractor or consultant to
end his/her business relationship with the Company.

     (G) REMEDIES. The Executive acknowledges that a breach or threatened breach
of any of the terms set forth in this Section 6 shall result in an irreparable
and continuing harm to the Company for which there shall be no adequate remedy
at law. In the case of any breach or threatened breach of Section 6, the
Company, without posting a bond, shall be entitled to obtain injunctive and
other equitable relief, in addition to any other remedies available to the
Company. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as prohibiting the Company
from pursuing any other remedies available to it for such breach or threatened
breach, including the recovery of damages from the Executive. The Executive
agrees not to assert in any such action that an adequate remedy exists at law.
All expenses, including, without limitation, attorney's fees and expenses
incurred in


                                       -6-

<PAGE>


connection with any legal proceeding arising as a result of a breach or
threatened breach of Section 6, shall be borne by the losing party to the
fullest extent permitted by law and the losing party hereby agrees to indemnify
and hold the other party harmless from and against all such expenses.

     (H) ESSENTIAL AND INDEPENDENT AGREEMENTS. It is understood by the parties
hereto that the Executive's obligations and the restrictions and remedies set
forth in this Section 6 are essential elements of this Agreement and that but
for his agreement to comply with and/or agree to such obligations, restrictions
and remedies, the Company would not have entered into this Agreement or
continued to employ him or provided him with continued access to the Company's
trade secrets and confidential information. The Executive's obligations and the
restrictions and remedies set forth in this Section 6 are independent
agreements, and the existence of any claim or claims by him against the Company
under this Agreement or otherwise will not excuse his breach of any of his
obligations or affect the restrictions and remedies set forth under this
Section 6.

     (I) SURVIVAL OF TERMS; REPRESENTATIONS. The Executive's obligations under
this Section 6 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the
termination of his employment for any reason. He acknowledges that he is
sophisticated in business, and that the restrictions and remedies set forth in
this Section 6 do not create an undue hardship on him and will not prevent him
from earning a livelihood. He further acknowledges that he has had a sufficient
period of time within which to review this Agreement, including this Section 6,
with an attorney of his choice and he has done so to the extent he desired. The
Executive and the Company agree that the restrictions and remedies contained in
this Section 6 are reasonable and necessary to protect the Company's legitimate
business interests regardless of the reason for or circumstances giving rise to
such termination and that he and the Company intend that such restrictions and
remedies shall be enforceable to the fullest extent permissible by law. The
Executive agrees that, given the scope of the Company's business and the global
nature of the oil and gas business, any further geographic limitation on such
remedies and restrictions would deny the Company the protection to which it is
entitled hereunder. If it shall be found by a court of competent jurisdiction
that any such restriction or remedy is unenforceable but would be enforceable if
some part thereof were deleted or modified, then such restriction or remedy
shall apply with such modification as shall be necessary to make it enforceable
to the fullest extent permissible under law.

     (J) DISCLOSURE. The Executive shall, and the Company may, during the time
this Agreement is in effect and thereafter, notify any prospective employer of
the Executive of the terms and conditions of this Agreement regarding
confidentiality, nondisclosure, non-solicitation and non-competition.

     7. EFFECT OF A CHANGE OF CONTROL.

     (A) DEFINITIONS.

     "Base Amount" shall mean the Executive's average W2 taxable income from the
Company and its Affiliates over the five taxable years that end before the
subject Change of Control occurs.

     "Change of Control" shall mean:

     (i) Any merger, consolidation or share exchange that results in the voting
securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto representing
immediately thereafter (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted
into voting securities of the surviving or acquiring entity) less than 50% of
the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Company or such
surviving or acquiring entity outstanding immediately after such merger or
consolidation; or

     (ii) Any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or

     (iii) The complete liquidation of the Company.

     B) IMPACT OF CHANGE OF CONTROL. If Executive is terminated without Cause or
he resigns for Good Reason within two years after a Change of Control, he shall
be entitled to receive all compensation earned to the date of termination,
including a pro rata allocation of any annual bonus to which he would have been
entitled had he been employed during the entire year, plus a severance payment
in the amount of 2.99 times his Base Amount (the "Severance Payment"). One-half
of the Severance Payment, but not less than $1,125,000, shall be paid to the
Executive to compensate him for his lost earnings during the Non-Compete Period,
and such allocation shall be noted in the Company's accounting records for
purposes of addressing whether any excise taxes are owed by the Company or the
Executive in connection with the Severance Payment. The Company shall have the
right to require that the Executive sign a complete release of the Company and
its Affiliates and their officers and directors as a condition to his receipt of
the Severance Payment under this paragraph or any other paragraph in this
Agreement.

     8. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.

     (A) GROUNDS FOR TERMINATION. This Agreement shall terminate upon the
earliest of the following to occur:

     (i) The death of the Executive, effective the date of his death; or

     (ii) The Executive becoming incapable of fulfilling his duties and
obligations hereunder because of injury or physical or mental illness, and such
incapacity existing for a total of one hundred and twenty (120) calendar days in
any twelve (12)-month period (a "Disability"); or


                                       -8-

<PAGE>


     (iii) The termination of the Executive for Cause, defined as (a) fraud or
dishonesty in connection with the Executive's performance of his duties that
results in demonstrable damage to the Company; (b) the Executive's conviction of
a crime involving moral turpitude; (c) any violation of Section 6 of this
Agreement; or (d) the Executive's willful failure, neglect or refusal to perform
his duties hereunder or any other material breach by the Executive of any of the
terms hereunder. This Agreement shall terminate immediately upon the Company
giving the Executive written notice that the Agreement is being terminated for a
Cause specified in Sections (a)-(c) of the preceding sentence; however, with
respect to termination for a Cause specified in (d) of the preceding sentence,
the Board shall give written notice to the Executive specifying the Cause relied
upon for termination and give the Executive a reasonable opportunity to be
heard, and if the Executive does not cease and correct such conduct, event, act
or failure within thirty (30) days after the date of such notice or the Board
does not revoke such notice after giving the Executive a reasonable opportunity
to be heard, the Executive's employment shall then be terminated effective at
the close of business on such thirtieth (30th) day following the written notice;
or

     (iv) The Executive's resignation for Good Reason; defined as (a) any
material breach by the Company of any provision of this Agreement or (b) a
material adverse change in the Executive's title, position or responsibilities.
The Executive shall give written notice to the Company specifying the claimed
Good Reason relied upon for termination, and if the Company fails to correct the
claimed Good Reason within thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice,
the Executive's employment shall be terminated effective at the close of
business on such thirtieth (30th) day. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in this Agreement, the Executive shall not be entitled to terminate for Good
Reason if the Company is entitled to terminate for Cause; or

     (v) Expiration of the Employment Term.

     (B) PAYMENTS DUE ON TERMINATION.

     (i) If the Company terminates this Agreement for Cause, the Executive
resigns without Good Reason, or the Executive's employment hereunder terminates
due to the Disability or death of the Executive, then the Company's obligations
to make payments to the Executive, his beneficiaries or estate, as appropriate,
under Section 2 shall immediately cease as of the effective date of such
termination or resignation; provided, however, that the Company will pay any
Base Salary due for services already performed, will reimburse the Executive or
his estate for any previously incurred legitimate business expenses, and will
offer medical benefits to the Executive's dependents in accordance with COBRA
and any other applicable law.

     (ii) If the Company terminates this Agreement without Cause or the
Executive terminates this Agreement for Good Reason, then the Executive shall be
entitled to receive all compensation earned to the date of termination,
including a pro rata allocation of any annual bonus to which he would have been
entitled had he been


                                       -9-

<PAGE>


employed during the entire year, plus the Severance Payment described in Section
6 of this Agreement. The Executive shall only be entitled to receive one
Severance Payment, even if multiple events occur that might entitle him to the
Severance Payment.

     (iii) At the end of the Initial Employment Term or on any subsequent
anniversary date, should the Company, without Cause, fail to renew this
Agreement and fail to negotiate a new agreement acceptable to Executive, then
the Executive shall have the option of resigning and receiving the Severance
Payment.

     (iv) The payments and benefits (if any) required to be provided to the
Executive under this section shall be in complete satisfaction of any claims
that the Executive may have as a result of termination of the Executive's
employment.

     (C) SURVIVAL OF CERTAIN TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT. In addition to the
provisions of this Agreement explicitly stated herein as surviving the
termination of this Agreement, including without limitation all provisions
requiring the Company to pay the Executive amounts due to him upon termination
of employment, sections 9 to 15 inclusive shall survive such termination.

     9. SEVERABILITY. The Company and the Executive recognize that the laws and
public policies of the state law applicable to this Agreement are subject to
varying interpretations and change. It is the intention of the Company and the
Executive that this Agreement be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by
law. Therefore, should a court of competent jurisdiction hold any provision or
portion or clause of this Agreement, or portion thereof, to be illegal, invalid
or unenforceable, the remainder of such provision shall not thereby be affected
and shall be given full effect, without regard to the invalid portion. Further,
if any court construes any provision or clause of this Agreement, or any portion
thereof, to be illegal, void or unenforceable because of the scope of such
covenant or provision, it is the intention of the parties that the court shall
modify such a provision to render its scope legal and enforceable and, in its
modified form, such provision shall then be enforceable and shall be enforced.

     10. ASSIGNMENT. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding
upon the Company, its successors and assigns (including any entity which
acquires the Company by way of acquisition of assets, merger, stock purchase or
otherwise), and upon the Executive and the Executive's heirs, executors,
administrators and legal representatives. This Agreement shall not be assignable
by the Executive.

     11. NOTICES. All notices under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall
be deemed to have been given at the time when hand delivered, when received if
sent by telecopier or by same day or overnight recognized commercial courier
service, or three days after being mailed by registered or certified mail,

                      LONG-TERM INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN

     This Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan ("Plan"), effective April 15,
2004, is established primarily to encourage employees and consultants of W & T
Offshore, Inc. (the "Company"), its Affiliates, and its joint ventures to
acquire Stock and other equity-based interests in the Company. It is believed
that the Plan will stimulate employees' and consultants' efforts on the
Company's behalf, will tend to maintain and strengthen their desire to remain
with the Company, will be in the interest of the Company and its shareholders,
and will encourage such employees and consultants to have greater personal
financial investment in the Company thorough ownership of its Stock. The Plan
supersedes and replaces that certain Long Term Incentive Plan of the Company
adopted in 2003 (the "Original Incentive Plan").

1.   Definitions

     "Affiliate" shall have the meaning assigned to the term pursuant to Rule
12b-2 as promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

     The "Board" means the Board of Directors of the Company.

     "Cause" shall mean: (a) theft of property belonging to the Company or one
of its Affiliates (including but not limited to trade secrets and confidential
information); (b) fraud on the Company or one of its Affiliates; (c) conviction
of, or pleading "no contest" to, a felony committed while employed by or
consulting for the Company or one of its Affiliates; (d) breach of fiduciary
duty to the Company or one of its Affiliates; or (e) deliberate, willful or
gross misconduct related to the Company or an Affiliate.

     The "Code" means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any
successor code thereto.

     The "Committee" means the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors
of the Company.

     The "Company" means W & T Offshore, Inc.

     "Covered Employee" means an employee who is a "covered employee" within the
meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code.

     "Division" shall mean a section of the Company or an Affiliate.

     "Eligible Employee" mean a regular full-time or part-time employee of the
Company, its Affiliates, and its joint ventures, including officers, whether or
not under direction of the Company.

     "Fair Market Value" means the value of a share of Stock on a particular
date determined by such methods or procedures as may be established by the
Committee.

<PAGE>

Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the Fair Market Value of Stock as
of any date is the closing price for the Stock as reported on the New York Stock
Exchange (or on any other national securities exchange on which the Stock is
then listed) for that date or, if no closing price is reported for that date,
the closing price on the next preceding date for which a closing price was
reported. For purposes of awards effective as of the effective date of the
Company's initial public offering, Fair Market Value of Stock shall be the price
at which the Stock is offered to the public in its initial public offering.

     "Incentive Option" means an Option that by its terms is to be treated as an
"incentive stock option" within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code.

     "Incentives" means awards made under this Plan of any of the following, or
any combination of the following: (a) Options (including both Incentive Options
and Nonstatutory Stock Options); (b) Stock Appreciation Rights; (c) Restricted
Stock; and (d) Performance Shares.

     "Nonstatutory Stock Option" means any Option that is not an Incentive
Option.

     "Option" means an option to purchase one or more shares of the Company's
Stock.

     "Participant" means any holder of an Incentive awarded under the Plan.

     "Performance Criteria" means the criteria that the Committee selects for
purposes of establishing the Performance Goal or Performance Goals for a
Participant for a Performance Period. The Performance Criteria used to establish
Performance Goals are limited to: pre- or after-tax net earnings, sales growth,
operating earnings, operating cash flow, return on net assets, return on
shareholders' equity, return on assets, return on capital, stock price growth,
shareholder returns, gross or net profit margin, earnings per share, price per
share of stock, and market share, any of which may be measured either in
absolute terms or as compared to any incremental increase or as compared to
results of a peer group. In the case of Qualified Performance-Based Incentives,
the Committee will, within the time prescribed by Section 162(m) of the Code,
objectively define the manner of calculating the Performance Criteria it selects
to use for such Performance Period for recipients of such Incentives.

     "Performance Goals" means, for a Performance Period, the written goals
established by the Committee for the Performance Period based upon the
Performance Criteria. Depending on the Performance Criteria used to establish
such Performance Goals, the Performance Goals may be expressed in terms of
overall Company performance or the performance of an Affiliate, Division or
Participant.

     "Performance Period" means the one or more periods of time, which may be of
varying and overlapping durations, selected by the Committee, over which the
attainment of one or more Performance Goals will be measured for purposes of

<PAGE>

     "Performance Shares" shall mean contingent awards granted by the Committee
in shares of Stock, cash or any combination of Stock and Stock and cash, with
such awards only paid if the Company, an Affiliate, or Division specified by the
Committee meets Performance Goals established by the Committee.

     "Plan" shall refer to the Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan described
in this document.

     "Qualified Performance-Based Incentives" means awards of Incentives
intended to qualify as "performance-based compensation" under Section 162(m) of

to a Risk of Forfeiture.

     "Restriction Period" means the period of time, established by the Committee
in connection with an award of Restricted Stock, during which the shares of
Restricted Stock are subject to a Risk of Forfeiture described in the applicable
award agreement.

     "Risk of Forfeiture" means a limitation on the right of the Participant to
retain Restricted Stock, including a right in the Company to reacquire shares of
Restricted Stock at less than their then Fair Market Value, arising because of
the occurrence or non-occurrence of specified events or conditions.

     "Stock" shall refer to one or more shares of the Company's common stock.

     "Stock Appreciation Right" means a right to receive any excess in the Fair
Market Value of shares of Stock over a specified exercise price.

2.   Incentives

     Incentives under the Plan may be granted in any one or a combination of (a)
Incentive Options (or other statutory stock option); (b) Nonstatutory Stock
Options; (c) Stock Appreciation Rights; (d) Restricted Stock; and (e)
Performance Shares. All Incentives shall be subject to the terms and conditions
set forth herein and to such other terms and conditions as may be established by
the Committee, except that the provisions of this Plan shall not apply
retroactively to any Incentive issued before the effective date of this Plan.
Determinations by the Committee under the Plan (including, without limitation,
determinations as to the Eligible Employees; the form, amount and timing of
Incentives; and the terms and provisions of agreements evidencing Incentives)
need not be uniform and may be made selectively among Eligible Employees who
receive, or are eligible to receive, Incentives, whether or not such Eligible
Employees are similarly situated.

<PAGE>

3.   Administration

     (a) Compensation Committee. The Plan shall be administered by the
Compensation Committee. No person who makes or participates in making an award
under this Plan, whether as a member of the Committee, a delegate of the
Committee, or in any other capacity, shall make or participate in making an
award to himself or herself. No director or person acting pursuant to the
authority delegated by the Committee shall be liable for any action or
determination relating to or under the Plan made in good faith.

     (b) Powers of Committee. The Committee will have full discretionary power
to administer the Plan in all of its details, subject to applicable requirements
of law. For this purpose, in addition to all other powers provided by this Plan,
the Committee's discretionary powers will include, but will not be limited to,
the following discretionary powers:

         (1) To make and enforce such rules and regulations as it deems
necessary or proper for the efficient administration of the Plan;

         (2) To interpret the Plan;

         (3) To decide all questions concerning the Plan and the eligibility of
any person to participate in the Plan, and the determination of whether a worker
is an Eligible Employee shall be made in the sole and exclusive discretion of
the Committee;

         (4) To appoint such agents, counsel, accountants, consultants and other
persons as may be required to assist in administering the Plan;

         (5) To delegate some or all of its power and authority to the Chief
Executive officer, other senior members of management, or committee or
subcommittee, as the Committee deems appropriate. However, the Committee may not
delegate its authority with regard to any matter or action affecting an officer
subject to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934;

         (6) To impose such restrictions and limitations on any awards granted
under the Plan as it may deem advisable, including, but not limited to share
ownership or holding period requirements and requirements to enter into or to
comply with confidentiality agreements and, to the extent allowed by law,
non-competition and other restrictive or similar covenants.

         (7) To correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any
inconsistency in the Plan or any award made under the Plan in the manner and to
the extent it shall deem expedient to carry the Plan into effect and it shall be
the sole and final judge of such expediency; and

<PAGE>

         (8) If the Committee determines that the amendment of an Incentive
awarded under this Plan is in the best interest of a Participant, to amend any
such Incentive without the consent of the Participant.

     Any determination by the Committee or its delegate(s) shall be final,
binding and conclusive on all persons, in the absence of clear and convincing
evidence that the Committee or its delegates(s) acted arbitrarily and
capriciously.

     (c) Vesting Period. If applicable, the Committee shall determine the
vesting period for Incentives granted under this Plan and shall specify such
vesting period in writing in making an award of an Incentive under this Plan.
However, should the Committee award Options under this Plan without specifying a
vesting period, then the vesting period shall be five years, with 20% of the
Options to vest at the end of each calendar year following the award.

     (d) Documentation of Award of Incentive. Each Incentive awarded under this
Plan shall be evidenced in such written form as the Committee shall determine.
Each award may contain terms and conditions in addition to those set forth in
the Plan.

     (e) Participants Outside the United States. The Committee may modify the
terms of any Incentive granted under the Plan to a Participant who is, at the
time of grant or during the term of the Incentive, resident or primarily
employed outside of the United States. Such modification, which may be made in
any manner deemed by the Committee to be necessary or appropriate, shall only be
made in order that the Incentive shall conform to laws, regulations, and customs
of the country in which the Participant is then resident or primarily employed,
or so that the value and other benefits of the Incentive to the Participant, as
affected by foreign tax laws and other restrictions applicable as a result of
the Participant's residence or employment abroad, shall be comparable to the
value of such an Incentive to a Participant who is resident or primarily
employed in the United States. The Committee may establish supplements to, or
amendments, restatements, or alternative versions of, the Plan for the purpose
of granting and administrating any such modified Incentive. No such
modification, supplement, amendment, restatement or alternative version may
increase the share limits set forth in this Plan.

4.   Eligibility/ Forfeiture in the Event of Termination for Cause

     (a) Eligibility. Eligible Employees may receive Incentives under this Plan.
Those directors who are not regular employees of the Company are not eligible to
receive Incentives. Unless otherwise indicated in this Plan, consultants to the
Company are also eligible to receive Incentives.

     (b) Forfeiture. If the Company or one of its Affiliates terminates an
Eligible Employee for Cause or cancels the engagement of a consultant for Cause,
the Board, by written resolution, may, to the fullest extent allowed by law,
cancel and/or cause the forfeiture of any unvested and/or unexercised Option and
any unpaid Stock

<PAGE>

Appreciation Right, unvested Performance Share, or Restricted Stock awarded to
such Eligible Employee or consultant.

5.   Qualified Performance-Based Incentives

     (a) Applicability. This section will apply only to Covered Employees, or to
those persons whom the Committee determines are reasonably likely to become
Covered Employees in the period covered by an Incentive. The Committee may, in
its discretion, select particular Covered Employees to receive Qualified
Performance-Based Incentives. The Committee may, in its discretion, grant
Incentives (other than Qualified Performance-Based Incentives) to Covered
Employees that do not satisfy the requirements of this section.

     (b) Purpose. As to any Covered Employee or person likely to become a
Covered Employee during the period covered by an Incentive, the Committee shall
have the ability to qualify any of the Incentives as "performance-based
compensation" under Section 162(m) of the Code. If the Committee, in its
discretion, decides to grant an Incentive as a Qualified Performance-Based
Incentive, the provisions of this section will control over any contrary
provision contained in the Plan. In the course of granting any Incentive, the
Committee may specifically designate the Incentive as intended to qualify as a
Qualified Performance-Based Incentive. However, no Incentive shall be considered
to have failed to qualify as a Qualified Performance-Based Incentive solely
because the Incentive is not expressly designated as a Qualified
Performance-Based Incentive, if the Incentive otherwise satisfies the provisions
of this section and the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code and the
regulations thereunder applicable to "performance-based compensation."

     (c) Authority. All grants of Incentives intended to qualify as Qualified
Performance-Based Incentives shall be made by the Committee or, if all of the
members thereof do not qualify as "outside directors" within the meaning of
applicable IRS regulations under Section 162 of the Code, by a subcommittee of
the Committee consisting of such of the members of the Committee who do so
qualify. Any action by such a subcommittee shall be considered the action of the
Committee for purposes of the Plan. The Committee (or subcommittee, if
necessary) shall also determine the terms applicable to Qualified
Performance-Based Incentives.

     (d) Discretion of Committee. Options may be granted as Qualified
Performance-Based Incentives. The exercise price of any Option intended to
qualify as a Qualified Performance-Based Incentive shall in no event be less
that the Fair Market Value on the date of the grant of the Stock covered by the
Option. With regard to other Incentives intended to qualify as Qualified
Performance-Based Incentives, the Committee will have full discretion to select
the length of any applicable Restriction Period or Performance Period.
Additionally, the Committee shall have full discretion to establish the
Performance Criteria, the kind and/or level of the applicable Performance Goal,
and whether the Performance Goal is to apply to the Company, Affiliate or
Division or to the individual. Any Performance Goal or Goals applicable to
Qualified Performance-Based

<PAGE>

Incentives shall be objective, shall be established not later than ninety (90)
days after the beginning of any applicable Performance Period (or at such other
date as may be required or permitted for "performance-based compensation" under
Section 162(m) of the Code), and shall otherwise meet the requirements of
Section 162(m) of the Code, including the requirement that the outcome of the
Performance Goal or Goals be substantially uncertain (as defined in the
regulations under Section 162(m) of the Code) at the time established.

     (e) Payment of Qualified Performance-Based Incentives. A Participant will
be eligible to receive payment under a Qualified Performance-Based Incentive
that is subject to achievement of a Performance Goal or Goals only if the
applicable Performance Goal or Goals are achieved within the applicable
Performance Period, as determined by the Committee. In determining the actual
size of an individual Qualified Performance-Based Incentive, the Committee may
reduce or eliminate the amount of the Qualified Performance-Based Incentive
earned for the Performance Period, if, in its sole and absolute discretion, such
reduction or elimination is appropriate.

     (f) Limitation of Adjustments for Certain Events. No adjustment of any
Qualified Performance-Based Incentive shall be made except on such basis, if
any, as will not cause such Incentive to provide other than "performance-based
compensation" within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code.

6.   Shares Available for Incentives and Limits on Incentives

     (a) Maximum Shares. Subject to adjustment as provided in this Section 6,
there is hereby reserved for issuance under the Plan up to 250,000 shares of
Stock of the Company. If shares of Stock of the Company are split, then the
number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan shall be automatically
adjusted to reflect such a stock split.

     (b) Limit on an Individual's Incentives. In any given year, no Eligible
Employee may receive Incentives covering more than 20% of the aggregate number
of shares which may be issued pursuant to the Plan. Except as may otherwise be
permitted by the Code, Incentive Options granted to an Eligible Employee during
one calendar year shall be limited as follows: at the time the Incentive Options
are granted, the Fair Market Value of the Stock covered by Incentive Options
first exercisable by an Eligible Employee in any calendar year may not, in the
aggregate, exceed $100,000. The maximum Qualified Performance-Based Incentive
payment to any one Participant under the Plan for a Performance Period is 20% of
the aggregate number of shares that may be issued pursuant to the Plan, or if
the Qualified Performance-Based Incentive is paid in cash, that number of shares
multiplied by the Fair Market Value of the Stock as of the date the Qualified
Performance-Based Incentive is granted.

     (c) Source of Shares. Shares under this Plan may be delivered by the
Company from its authorized but unissued shares of Stock or from Stock held in
the Company treasury. . There are no unexercised Options outstanding under the
Original Incentive Plan. To the extent that shares of Stock subject to an
outstanding award under

<PAGE>

the Plan are not issued by reason of forfeiture, termination, surrender,
cancellation, or expiration while unexercised; by reason of the tendering or
withholding of shares to pay all or a portion of the exercise price or to
satisfy all or a portion of the tax withholding obligations relating to the
award; by reason of being settled in cash in lieu of shares or settled in a
manner that some or all of the shares covered by the award are not issued to the
Participant; or being exchanged for a grant under the Plan that does not involve
Stock, then such shares shall immediately again be available for issuance under
the Plan, unless such availability would cause the Plan to fail to comply with
Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or any other applicable
law or regulation.

     (d) Recapitalization Adjustment. In the event of a reorganization,
recapitalization, stock split, stock dividend, combination of shares, merger,
consolidation, rights offering, or any other change in the corporate structure
or shares of the Company, the Committee shall make such adjustment, if any, as
it may deem appropriate in the number and kind of shares authorized by the Plan;
in the number and kind of shares covered by Incentives granted; in the price of
Options; and in the Fair Market Value of Stock Appreciation Rights. No
adjustment under this section or any other part of this Plan shall be made if:
(1) it would cause an Incentive granted under this Plan as a Qualified
Performance-Based Incentive to fail under Code 162(m), or (2) it would cause an
Incentive granted as Incentive Option to fail to meet the criteria for Incentive
Option.

7.   Options

     The Committee may grant options qualifying as Incentive Options under the
Code, other statutory options under the Code, and Nonstatutory Options. Such
Options shall be subject to the following terms and conditions and such other
terms and conditions as the Committee may prescribe:

     (a) Option Price. The option price per share with respect to each Option
shall be determined by the Committee, but shall not be less than 100% of the
Fair Market Value of the Company's Stock on the date the Option is granted;
provided, however, that in the case of an Incentive Option granted to an
Eligible Employee who, immediately prior to such grant, owns stock (either
common or preferred) possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total
combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or a subsidiary of
the Company, the option price shall not be less than one hundred ten percent
(110%) of the fair market value on the date of grant.

     (b) Period of Option. The period of each Option shall be fixed by the
Committee but shall not exceed ten (10) years.

     (c) Payment. The Option price shall be payable in cash at the time the
Option is exercised; provided, however, that in lieu of such cash the person
exercising the Option may pay the option price in whole or in part by delivering
Stock having a fair market value on the date of exercise of the Option equal to
the option price for the shares being purchased. No shares shall be issued until
full payment for such shares has been made. A

<PAGE>

grantee of an Option shall have none of the rights of a shareholder until the
shares are issued.

     (d) Exercise of Option. So long as an Option grantee remains employed by
the Company, the shares covered by an Option may be purchased in such
installments and on such exercise dates as the Committee or its delegate may
determine. In no event shall any Option be exercisable after its specified
expiration period.

     (e) Termination of Employment. Upon the termination of an Option grantee's
employment (for any reason other than retirement, death or Cause) Option
privileges shall be limited to the shares that were immediately exercisable at
the date of such termination. The Committee, however, in its discretion, may
provide that any Options outstanding but not yet exercisable upon the
termination of an Option grantee's employment may become exercisable in
accordance with a schedule to be determined by the Committee. Such Option
privileges shall expire unless exercised or surrendered under a Stock
Appreciation Right within such period of time after the date of termination of
employment as may be established by the Committee, but in no event later than
the expiration date of the Option. Incentive Options must, however, be exercised
no later than three months after termination of employment, unless the Option
grantee is disabled, in which case this three month period is extended to one
year. If a Participant's employment or consulting assignment is terminated for
Cause, all rights under the Option shall expire upon the Participant's receipt
of the notice of such termination.

     (f) Retirement. Upon retirement of an Option grantee, Option privileges
shall apply to those shares immediately exercisable at the date of retirement.
The Committee, however, in its discretion, may provide that any Options
outstanding but not yet exercisable upon the retirement of an Option grantee may
become exercisable in accordance with a schedule to be determined by the
Committee. Option privileges shall expire unless exercised within such period of
time as may be established by the Committee but in no event later than the
expiration data of the Option.

     (g) Death. Upon the death of an Option grantee, Option privileges shall
apply to those shares that were immediately exercisable at the time of death.
The Committee, however, in its discretion, may provide that any Options
outstanding but not yet exercisable upon the death of an Option grantee may
become exercisable in accordance with a schedule to be determined by the
Committee. Such privileges shall expire unless exercised by legal
representatives within a period of time as determined by the Committee but in no
event later than the expiration date of the Option.

     (h) Divorce. Incentive Stock Options transferred incident to divorce will
cease to be statutory stock options on transfer.

     (i) Cancellation of Options with No Value. Any person who receives a grant
of Options under this Plan may be required, at the time the Options are awarded,
to sign a consent allowing the Board, in its discretion, to cancel the Options
if their Fair Market

<PAGE>

Value decreases such that their exercise price is significantly above their Fair
Market Value.

8. Stock Appreciation Rights

     The Committee may, in its discretion, grant Stock Appreciation Rights
either singly or in combination with an underlying Option granted hereunder.
Such Stock Appreciation Rights shall be subject to the following terms and
conditions and such other terms and conditions as the Committee may prescribe:

     (a) Time and Period of Grant. If a Stock Appreciation Right is granted with
respect to an underlying Option, it may be granted at the time of the Option or
at any time thereafter but prior to the expiration of the Option. If a Stock
Appreciation Right is granted with respect to an underlying Option, at the time
the Stock Appreciation Right is granted, the Committee may limit the exercise
period for such Stock Appreciation Right, before and after which period no Stock
Appreciation Right shall attach to the underlying Option. In no event shall the
exercise period for a Stock Appreciation Right exceed the exercise period for
such Option. If a Stock Appreciation Right is granted without an underlying
Option, the Committee shall set the period for exercise of the Stock
Appreciation Right.

     (b) Value of Stock Appreciation Right. If a Stock Appreciation Right is
granted with respect to an underlying Option, the grantee will be entitled to
surrender the Option that is then exercisable and receive in exchange an amount
equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the date the
election to surrender is received by the Company over the Option price
multiplied by the number of shares covered by the Options that are surrendered.
If a Stock Appreciation Right is granted without an underlying Option, the
grantee will receive upon exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right an amount
equal to or exceeding the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the date the
election to surrender such Stock Appreciation Right is received by the Company
over the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the date of grant multiplied by the
number of shares covered by the grant of the Stock Appreciation Right.

     (c) Payment of Stock Appreciation Right. Payment of a Stock Appreciation
Right shall be in the form of shares of Stock, cash, or any combination of Stock
and Stock and cash. The form of payment upon exercise of such a right shall be
determined by the Committee either at the time of grant of the Stock
Appreciation Right or at the time of exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right.

9. Performance Shares

     The Committee may grant Performance Shares to any Eligible Employee
selected by the Committee in its sole discretion. Such Performance Shares shall
be subject to the following terms and conditions and such other terms and
conditions as the Committee may prescribe:

<PAGE>

     (a) Performance Period and Performance Goals. In granting Performances
Shares, the Committee shall determine and specify the Performance Period. The
Committee shall also establish Performance Goals to be met by the Company,
Affiliate or Division during the Performance Period as a condition to payment of
the Performance Share grant. The Performance Goals may include minimum and
optimum objectives or a single set of objectives.

     (b) Payment of Performance Shares. The Committee shall establish the method
of calculating the amount of payment to be made under a Performance Share grant
if the Performance Goals are met, including the fixing of a maximum payment. The
Performance Share grant shall be expressed in terms of shares of Stock. After
the completion of a Performance Period, the performance of the Company,
Affiliate, or Division shall be measured against the Performance Goals, and the
Committee shall determine whether all, none or any portion of a Performance
Share grant shall be paid. The Committee, in its discretion, may elect to make
payment in shares of Stock, cash or a combination of Stock and Stock and cash.
Any cash payment shall be based on the Fair Market Value of Performance Shares
on, or reasonably close to, the date of payment.

     (c) Revision of Performance Goals. At any time prior to the end of a
Performance Period, the Committee may revise the Performance Goals and the
computation of payment if unforeseen events occur that have a substantial effect
on the performance of the Company, Affiliate or Division and that in the
judgment of the Committee make the application of the Performance Goals unfair
unless a revision is made.

     (d) Requirement of Employment. A grantee of Performance Shares must remain
in the employment of the Company until the completion of the Performance Period
in order to be entitled to payment under the Performance Share grant. However,
the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide for a partial payment where
such an exception is deemed equitable.

     (e) Dividends. The Committee may, in its discretion, at the time of the
granting of Performance Shares, provide that any dividends declared on the Stock
during the Performance Period, and that would have been paid with respect to
Performance Shares had they been owned by a grantee, be (i) paid to the grantee,
or (ii) accumulated for the benefit of the grantee and used to increase the
number of Performance Shares of the grantee.

10. Restricted Stock

     The Committee may award Restricted Stock to a grantee. All shares of
Restricted Stock granted shall be subject to a Risk of Forfeiture as determined
by the Committee, and shall additionally be subject to the following terms and
conditions and such other terms and conditions as the Committee may prescribe:

<PAGE>

     (a) Requirement of Employment. A grantee of Restricted Stock must remain in
the employment of the Company during the Restriction Period in order to retain
the shares of Restricted Stock. If the grantee leaves the employment of the
Company prior to the end of the Restriction Period, the Restricted Stock award
shall terminate and the shares of Stock shall be returned immediately to the
Company. However, the Committee may, at the time of the grant, allow the
employment restriction to lapse with respect to a portion or portions of the
Restricted Stock at different times during the Restriction Period. The Committee
may, in its discretion, also provide for such complete or partial exceptions to
the employment restriction as it deems equitable.

     (b) Restrictions on Transfer and Legend on Stock Certificates. During the
Restriction Period, the grantee may not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, or
otherwise dispose of the shares of Stock except as expressly permitted in this
Plan. Each certificate for shares of Stock issued hereunder shall contain a
legend giving appropriate notice of the restrictions in the grant.

     (c) Escrow Agreement. The Committee may require the grantee to enter into
an escrow agreement providing that the certificates representing the Restricted
Stock award will remain in the physical custody of an escrow holder until all
restrictions are removed or expire.

     (d) Lapse of Restrictions. All restrictions imposed on the Restricted Stock
shall lapse upon the expiration of the Restriction Period if the conditions of
the grant have been met. The grantee shall then be entitled to have the legend
removed from the certificates.

     (e) Dividends. The Committee shall, in its discretion, at the time the
Restricted Stock is awarded, provide that any dividends declared on the Stock
during the Restriction Period shall either be (i) paid to the grantee, or (ii)
accumulated for the benefit of the grantee and paid to the grantee only after
the expiration of the Restriction Period.

11. Acquisition and Change of Control Events

     (a) Definitions

     (1) "Acquisition Event" shall mean:

         (i) Any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another
entity as a result of which the Company's Stock is converted into or exchanged
for the right to receive cash, securities of the other entity, or other
property; or

         (ii) Any exchange of shares of the Company for cash, securities of
another entity or other property pursuant to a statutory share exchange
transaction.

     (2) "Change of Control Event" shall mean:

<PAGE>

         (i)   at least 35% of the capital stock of the Company ceases to the
owned by the majority shareholder of the Company as of the date of adoption of
this Plan, his wife, and/or their descendants by blood or adoption (collectively
the "Majority Holders"); spouses or surviving spouses of members of the Majority
Holders; trusts for the benefit of one or more members of the Majority Holders;
entities controlled by one or more members of the Majority Holders or
foundations established by the Majority Holders; or

         (ii)  any merger or consolidation that results in the voting securities
of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto representing immediately
thereafter (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting
securities of the surviving or acquiring entity) less than 50% of the combined
voting power of the voting securities of the Company or such surviving or
acquiring entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation; or

         (iii) the acquisition by an individual, entity or group (within the
meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) (a "Person") of
beneficial ownership of any capital stock of the Company if, after such
acquisition, such Person beneficially owns (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3
promulgated under the Exchange Act) 35% or more of either (A) the
then-outstanding shares of Stock of the Company (the "Outstanding Company
Stock"), or (B) the combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting
securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of
directors (the "Outstanding Company Voting Securities"). However, for purposes
of this subsection (iii), the following acquisitions shall not give rise to a
Change of Control event: (A) any acquisition directly from the Company, (B) any
acquisition by the Company, (C) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or
related trust ) sponsored or maintained by the Company or an Affiliate, or (D)
any acquisition by any corporation pursuant to a transaction that results in all
or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial
owners of the Outstanding Company Stock and Outstanding Company Voting
Securities immediately prior to such transaction beneficially owning, directly
or indirectly, more than 50% of the then-outstanding shares of Stock and the
combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities entitled to vote
generally in the election of directors, respectively, of the resulting or
acquiring corporation in such transaction (which shall include, without
limitation, a corporation that as a result of such transaction owns the Company
or substantially all of the Company's assets either directly or through one or
more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership,
immediately prior to such transaction, of the Outstanding Company Stock and
Outstanding Company Voting Securities, respectively;

         (iv)  any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company; or

         (v)   the complete liquidation of the Company.

     (b) Effect on Options

<PAGE>

     (1) Acquisition Event. Upon the occurrence of an Acquisition Event
(regardless of whether such event also constitutes a Change in Control Event),
or the execution by the Company of any agreement with respect to an Acquisition
Event (regardless of whether such event will result in a Change in Control
Event), the Board shall provide that all outstanding Options shall be assumed,
or equivalent options shall be substituted, by the acquiring or succeeding
corporation (or an Affiliate thereof). However, if such Acquisition Event also
constitutes a Change in Control Event, except to the extent specifically
provided to the contrary in the instrument evidencing any Option or any other
agreement between the Option holder and the Company, such assumed or substituted
options shall be immediately exercisable in full upon the occurrence of such
Acquisition Event. For purposes of this section, an Option shall be considered
to be assumed if, following consummation of the Acquisition Event, the Option
confers the right to purchase, for each share of Stock subject to the Option
immediately prior to the consummation of the Acquisition Event, the
consideration (whether cash, securities or other property) received as a result
of the Acquisition Event by holders of Stock for each share of Stock held
immediately prior to the consummation of the Acquisition Event (and if holders
were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the
holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Stock). However, if the
consideration received as a result of the Acquisition Event is not solely Stock
of the acquiring or succeeding corporation (or an Affiliate thereof), the
Company may, with the consent of the acquiring or succeeding corporation,
provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of Options to
consist solely of Stock of the acquiring or succeeding corporation (or an
Affiliate thereof) equivalent in Fair Market Value to the per share
consideration received by holders of outstanding shares of Stock as a result of
the Acquisition Event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the acquiring or
succeeding corporation (or an Affiliate thereof), does not agree to assume such
Options, or substitute equivalent options for such Options, then the Board
shall, upon written notice to the Option holders, provide that all then
unexercised Options will become exercisable in full as of a specified time prior
to the Acquisition Event and will terminate immediately prior to the
consummation of such Acquisition Event, except to the extent exercised by the
Option holders before the consummation of such Acquisition Event. However, in
the event of an Acquisition Event under the terms of which holders of Stock will
receive upon consummation thereof a cash payment for each share of Stock
surrendered pursuant to such Acquisition Event (the "Acquisition Price"), then
the Board may instead provide that all outstanding Options shall terminate upon
consummation of such Acquisition Event and that each Option holder shall
receive, in exchange therefor, a cash payment equal to the amount (if any) by
which (A) the Acquisition Price multiplied by the number of shares of Stock
subject to such outstanding Options (whether or not then exercisable), exceeds
(B) the aggregate exercise price of such Options.

     (2) Change in Control Event that is not an Acquisition Event. Upon the
occurrence of a Change in Control Event that does not also constitute an
Acquisition Event, except to the extent specifically provided to the contrary in
the instrument evidencing any Option or any other agreement between a
Participant and the Company, all Options then-outstanding shall automatically
become immediately exercisable in full.

<PAGE>

     (c) Effect on Restricted Stock

     (1) Acquisition Event that is not a Change in Control Event. Upon the
occurrence of an Acquisition Event that is not a Change in Control Event, the
repurchase and other rights of the Company under each outstanding grant of
Restricted Stock shall inure to the benefit of the Company's successor and shall
apply to the cash, securities or other property into which the Stock was
converted or for which it was exchanged pursuant to such Acquisition Event in
the same manner and to the same extent as such rights applied to the Stock
subject to such Restricted Stock award.

     (2) Change in Control Event. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control
Event (regardless of whether such event also constitutes an Acquisition Event),
except to the extent specifically provided to the contrary in the instrument
evidencing any Restricted Stock award or any other agreement between a holder of
a Restricted Stock award and the Company, all restrictions and conditions on all
Restricted Stock awards then outstanding shall automatically be deemed
terminated or satisfied.

     (d) Effect on Other Awards

     (1) Acquisition Event that is not a Change in Control Event. The Board
shall specify the effect of an Acquisition Event that is not a Change in Control
Event on any other Incentive granted under the Plan at the time of the grant of
such Incentive.

     (2) Change in Control Event. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control
Event (regardless of whether such event also constitutes an Acquisition Event),
except to the extent specifically provided to the contrary in the instrument
evidencing any other Incentive or any other agreement between an Incentive
holder and the Company, all other Incentives shall become exercisable,
realizable or vested in full, or shall be free of all conditions or
restrictions, as applicable to each such Incentive. Additionally, upon the
occurrence of a Change in Control Event (regardless of whether such event also
constitutes an Acquisition Event), all Performance Shares or other
performance-based awards shall be immediately payable based upon the extent, as
determined by the Committee, to which the Performance Goals for the Performance
Period then in progress have been met up through the date of the Change in
Control or based on 100% of the value on the date of grant of the Performance
Shares or other performance- based award, if such amount is higher.

12. Discontinuance or Amendment of the Plan

     The Board may discontinue the Plan at any time and may from time to time
amend or revise the terms of the Plan as permitted by applicable statutes,
except that it may not revoke or alter, in a manner unfavorable to the grantees
of any Incentives hereunder, any Incentives then outstanding, nor may the Board
amend the Plan without shareholder approval where the absence of such approval
would cause the Plan to fail to comply with Rule 16b-3 under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, or any other applicable law or

<PAGE>

regulation. No Incentive shall be granted under the Plan after April __, 2014,
but Incentives granted prior to such date may extend beyond the date.

13. Nontransferability

     Incentive Options granted under the Plan shall not be transferable except
by will or the laws of descent and distribution. To the extent allowed by law,
Nonstatutory Options may be transferable to certain family members or
foundations for no value or other consideration. Each other Incentive granted
under the Plan may be transferable subject to the terms and conditions as may be
established by the Committee in accordance with regulations promulgated under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or any other applicable law or regulation.

14. No Right of Employment

     The Plan and the Incentives granted hereunder shall not confer upon any
Eligible Employee the right to continued employment with the Company, its
Affiliates, or its joint ventures, or affect in any way the right of such
entities to terminate the employment of an Eligible Employee at any time and for
any reason. Neither shall the Plan and the Incentives granted hereunder confer
on a consultant the right to continuation of his or her consulting agreement.

15. Taxes

     The Company shall be entitled, at the time the Company deems appropriate
under the law then in effect, to withhold the amount of any tax attributed to
any Incentive granted under the Plan.

16. Governing Law

     The provisions of this Plan and all awards made under this Plan shall be
governed by and interpreted in accordance with the law of the State of Texas,
without regard to applicable conflicts of law principles.

17. Miscellaneous

     The provisions of this Plan shall be severable, and the invalidity of any
particular provision of the Plan shall not cause the Plan as a whole to be
invalid.

     Adopted by the Board of Directors this 15th day of April, 2004.

5.      TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS.

        5.1 Unless exercisability is accelerated as provided in Sections 5.4 or
7.2 hereof, any Options shall become exercisable beginning one year following
the date of grant.

        5.2 Unless terminated earlier as provided in Section 5.5 or 7.3, the

under this Plan and shall specify such vesting period in writing in making an
award of an Option under this Plan. However, should the Committee award Options
under this Plan without specifying a vesting period, then the vesting period
shall be five years, with 20% of the Options to vest at the end of each calendar
year following the award.

        5.5 If a Director ceases to serve on the Board for any reason, the
Options granted hereunder must be exercised, to the extent otherwise exercisable
at the time of termination of Board service, within two years from the date of
termination of Board service. Subject to Section 5.4 hereof, Options that are

purchased. The exercise notice shall be accompanied by tender of the full
purchase price for such shares, which may be paid or satisfied by (a) cash; (b)
check; (c) delivery of shares of Common Stock, which shares shall be valued for
this purpose at the Fair Market Value on the business day immediately preceding
the date such option is exercised and, unless otherwise determined by the
Committee, shall have been held by the optionee for at least six months; (d)
delivery of irrevocable written instructions to a broker approved by the Company
(with a copy to the Company) to immediately sell a portion of the shares
issuable under the Option and to deliver promptly to the Company the amount of
sale proceeds (or loan proceeds if the broker lends funds to the participant for
delivery to the Company) to pay the exercise price; or (e) in such other manner
as may be authorized from time to time by the Committee, provided that all such
payments shall be made or denominated in United States dollars. In the case of
delivery of an uncertified check, no shares shall be issued until the check has
been paid in full. Prior to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the
exercise of an Option, a Participant shall have no rights as a shareholder with
respect to such Option.

        5.7 Except for adjustments pursuant to Section 6 or actions permitted to
be taken by the Committee under Section 8.3 in the event of a Change of Control,

to the Company as consideration for the grant of a new Option with a lower
exercise price or any payment of cash or Common Stock.

        5.8 Upon approval of the Committee, the Company may repurchase all or a
portion of a previously granted Option from a Participant by mutual agreement
before such option has been exercised by payment to the Participant of cash or
Common Stock or a combination thereof with a value equal to the amount per share
by which: (a) the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock subject to the Option on
the business day immediately preceding the date of purchase exceeds (b) the
exercise price.

6.      ADJUSTMENT PROVISIONS.

        In the event of any recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend,
stock split, combination of shares or other change in the Common Stock, all
limitations on numbers of shares of Common Stock provided in this Plan, and the
number of shares subject to outstanding Options, shall be equitably adjusted in
proportion to the change in outstanding shares of Common Stock. In addition, in
the event of any such change in the Common Stock, the Committee shall make any
other adjustment that it determines to be equitable, including without
limitation adjustments to the exercise price of any Option in order to provide
Participants with the same relative rights before and after such adjustment.

7.      TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF RESTRICTED STOCK.

        The Committee may award Restricted Stock to a director. All shares of
Restricted Stock granted shall be subject to a risk of forfeiture as determined
by the Committee, and shall additionally be subject to the following terms and
conditions and such other terms and conditions as the Committee may prescribe:

        7.1 Requirement of Employment. A grantee of Restricted Stock must remain
on the Board during the restriction period in order to retain the shares of
Restricted Stock. If the director leaves the Board prior to the end of the
restriction period, the Restricted Stock award shall terminate and the shares of
Stock shall be returned immediately to the Company. However, the Committee may,
at the time of the grant, allow the restrictions to lapse with respect to a
portion or portions of the Restricted Stock at different times during the
restriction period.

        7.2 Restrictions on Transfer and Legend on Stock Certificates. During
the restriction period, the director may not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, or
otherwise dispose of the shares of Stock except as expressly permitted in this
Plan. Each certificate for shares of Stock issued hereunder shall contain a
legend giving appropriate notice of the restrictions in the grant.

        7.3 Escrow Agreement. The Committee may require the grantee to enter
into an escrow agreement providing that the certificates representing the
Restricted Stock award will remain in the physical custody of an escrow holder
until all restrictions are removed or expire.

                                      - 4 -

<PAGE>

        7.4 Lapse of Restrictions. All restrictions imposed on the Restricted
Stock shall lapse upon the expiration of the restriction period if the
conditions of the grant have been met. The director shall then be entitled to
have the legend removed from the certificates.

        7.5 Dividends and Voting. Dividends declared on the Stock during the
restriction period shall either be paid to the director. The director will be
entitled to vote all shares of Restricted Stock during the restriction period.

8.      CHANGE OF CONTROL.

        8.1 "Change of Control Event" shall mean:

                (a)     at least 35% of the capital stock of the Company ceases
to the owned by the majority shareholder of the Company as of the date of
adoption of this Plan, his wife, and/or their descendants by blood or adoption
(collectively the "Majority Holders"); spouses or surviving spouses of members
of the Majority Holders; trusts for the benefit of one or more members of the
Majority Holders; entities controlled by one or more members of the Majority
Holders or foundations established by the Majority Holders; or

                (b)     any merger or consolidation that results in the voting
securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto representing
immediately thereafter (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted
into voting securities of the surviving or acquiring entity) less than 50% of
the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Company or such
surviving or acquiring entity outstanding immediately after such merger or
consolidation; or

                (c)     the acquisition by an individual, entity or group
(within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) (a
"Person") of beneficial ownership of any capital stock of the Company if, after
such acquisition, such Person beneficially owns (within the meaning of Rule
13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) 35% or more of either (A) the
then-outstanding shares of Stock of the Company (the "Outstanding Company
Stock"), or (B) the combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting
securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of
directors (the "Outstanding Company Voting Securities"). However, for purposes
of this subsection (iii), the following acquisitions shall not give rise to a
Change of Control event: (A) any acquisition directly from the Company, (B) any
acquisition by the Company, (C) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or
related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or an Affiliate, or (D)
any acquisition by any corporation pursuant to a transaction that results in all
or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial
owners of the Outstanding Company Stock and Outstanding Company Voting
Securities immediately prior to such transaction beneficially owning, directly
or indirectly, more than 50% of the then-outstanding shares of Stock and the
combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities entitled to vote
generally in the election of directors, respectively, of the resulting or
acquiring corporation in such transaction (which shall include, without
limitation, a corporation that as a result of such transaction owns the Company
or substantially all of the Company's assets either directly or through one or
more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership,
immediately prior to such transaction, of the Outstanding Company Stock and
Outstanding Company Voting Securities, respectively;

                                      - 5 -

<PAGE>

                (d)     any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of
the Company; or

                (e)     the complete liquidation of the Company.

        8.2 Effect on Options. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control Event,
each outstanding Option shall vest in full and shall become immediately
exercisable. Any agreement with respect to a Change in Control Event must
provide that all outstanding Options shall be assumed, or equivalent options
shall be substituted, by the acquiring or succeeding corporation (or an
Affiliate thereof), if applicable. For purposes of this section, an Option shall
be considered to be assumed if, following consummation of the Change in Control
Event, the Option confers the right to purchase, for each share of Stock subject
to the Option immediately prior to the consummation of the Change in Control
Event, the consideration (whether cash, securities or other property) received
as a result of the Change in Control Event by holders of Stock for each share of
Stock held immediately prior to the consummation of the Change in Control Event
(and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of
consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of
Stock). However, if the consideration received as a result of the Change in
Control Event is not solely Stock of the acquiring or succeeding corporation (or
an Affiliate thereof), the Company may, with the consent of the acquiring or
succeeding corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon the
exercise of Options to consist solely of Stock of the acquiring or succeeding
corporation (or an Affiliate thereof) equivalent in Fair Market Value to the per
share consideration received by holders of outstanding shares of Stock as a
result of the Change in Control Event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the
acquiring or succeeding corporation (or an Affiliate thereof), does not agree to
assume such Options, or substitute equivalent options for such Options, then the
Board shall, upon written notice to the Option holders, provide that all then
unexercised Options will become exercisable in full as of a specified time prior
to the Change in Control Event and will terminate immediately prior to the
consummation of such Change in Control Event, except to the extent exercised by
the Option holders before the consummation of such Change in Control Event.
However, in the event of an Change in Control Event under the terms of which
holders of Stock will receive upon consummation thereof a cash payment for each
share of Stock surrendered pursuant to such Change in Control Event (the
"Acquisition Price"), then the Board may instead provide that all outstanding
Options shall terminate upon consummation of such Change in Control Event and
that each Option holder shall receive, in exchange therefor, a cash payment
equal to the amount (if any) by which (A) the Acquisition Price multiplied by
the number of shares of Stock subject to such outstanding Options (whether or
not then exercisable), exceeds (B) the aggregate exercise price of such Options.

        8.3 Effect on Restricted Stock . Upon the occurrence of a Change in
Control Event, all restrictions and conditions on all Restricted Stock awards
then outstanding shall automatically be deemed terminated or satisfied.

9.      GENERAL PROVISIONS.

        9.1 Nothing in the Plan or in any instrument executed pursuant to the
Plan will confer upon any Participant any right to continue as a Director.

                                      - 6 -

<PAGE>

        9.2 No shares of Common Stock will be issued or transferred pursuant to
an Option unless and until all then-applicable requirements imposed by federal
and state securities and other laws, rules and regulations and by any regulatory
agencies having jurisdiction, and by any stock exchanges upon which the Common
Stock may be listed, have been fully met. As a condition precedent to the
issuance of shares pursuant to the exercise of an Option, the Company may
require the Participant to take any reasonable action to meet such requirements.

        9.3 No Participant and no beneficiary or other person claiming under or
through such Participant will have any right, title or interest in or to any
shares of Common Stock allocated or reserved under the Plan or subject to any
Option except as to such shares of Common Stock, if any, that have been issued
or transferred to such Participant.

        9.4 No Options or Restricted Stock Awards granted hereunder may be
transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise encumbered by an optionee except:

                (a)     by will;

                (b)     by the laws of descent and distribution; or

                (c)     if permitted by the Committee and so provided in the
stock option agreement or an amendment thereto, (i) pursuant to a domestic
relations order, as defined in the Code, (ii) to Immediate Family Members (as
defined below), (iii) to a partnership in which the Participant and/or the
Participant's Immediate Family Members, or entities in which the Participant
and/or the Participant's Immediate Family Members are the owners, members or
beneficiaries, as appropriate, are the sole partners, (iv) to a limited
liability company in which the Participant and/or the Participant's Immediate
Family Members, or entities in which the Participant and/or the Participant's
Immediate Family Members are the sole owners, members or beneficiaries, as
appropriate, are the sole members, or (v) to a trust for the benefit solely of
the Participant and/or the Participant's Immediate Family Members. "Immediate
Family Members" means the spouses and natural or adopted children or
grandchildren of the Participants and their spouses.

        Any attempted assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other
disposition of an Option or Restricted Stock Award or levy of attachment, or
similar process upon an Option or Restricted Stock Award not specifically
permitted herein, shall be null and void and without effect.

        9.5 Each Option shall be evidenced by a written stock option agreement
or notice, including terms and conditions consistent with the Plan, as the
Committee may determine. Each Restricted Stock Award shall be accompanied by a
written agreement including terms, conditions and restrictions consistent with
the Plan, as the Committee may determine.

        9.6 Anything in the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding: (a) the
Company may, if it shall determine it necessary or desirable for any reason, at
the time of grant of any Award or the issuance of any shares of Common Stock
pursuant to any Option, require the recipient of the

                                      - 7 -

<PAGE>

Award, as a condition to the receipt thereof or to the receipt of shares of
Common Stock issued pursuant thereto, to deliver to the Company a written
representation of present intention to acquire the Award or the shares of Common
Stock issued pursuant thereto for his or her own account for investment and not
for distribution; and (b) if at any time the Company further determines, in its
sole discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification (or any
updating of any such document) of any Award or the shares of Common Stock
issuable pursuant thereto is necessary on any securities exchange or under any
federal or state securities or blue sky law, or that the consent or approval of
any governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or
in connection with the grant of any Award, the issuance of shares of Common
Stock pursuant thereto, or the removal of any restrictions imposed on such
shares, such Award shall not be granted or such shares of Common Stock shall not
be issued or such restrictions shall not be removed, as the case may be, in
whole or in part, unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or
approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not
acceptable to the Company.

10.     AMENDMENTS, DISCONTINUANCE OR TERMINATION OF THE PLAN.

        10.1 The Board may amend or discontinue the Plan at any time; provided,
however, that no such amendment may:

                (a)     without the approval of the shareholders, (i) increase,
subject to adjustments permitted herein, the maximum number of shares of Common
Stock that may be issued through the Plan, (ii) materially increase the benefits
accruing to Participants under the Plan, (iii) materially expand the classes of
persons eligible to participate in the Plan, or (iv) amend Section 5.7 to permit
repricing of Options; or

                b)      materially impair, without the consent of the recipient,
an Option previously granted or a Restricted Stock Grant previously made, except
that the Company retains all rights under Section 8 hereof.

        10.2 The Plan shall automatically terminate at such time as no shares of
Common Stock remain available for issuance through the Plan. No termination of
the Plan will affect the terms of any outstanding Options or shares of
Restricted Stock.

11.     EFFECTIVE DATE OF PLAN.

        The Plan shall become effective upon adoption by the Board, subject to
approval by the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock and the
Company's Series A Preferred Stock.

        IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned Assistant Secretary of W&T Offshore,
Inc. hereby certifies that the foregoing W&T Offshore 2004 Directors
Compensation Plan was (i) approved by the Board in a Unanimous Consent of
Directors dated as of April 26, 2004, and (ii) approved by the unanimous consent
of the holders of all of the Company's outstanding shares of stock.

the representations and warranties contained in this Section 3.1, W&T shall be
deemed to include, unless the context otherwise requires, W&T and W&T Holdings,
LLC and no other subsidiaries of W&T. Specifically, W&T shall not include W&T
Offshore, LLC or the three subsidiaries of W&T formed to acquire certain assets,
liabilities, business or prospects associated with the assets of Burlington
Resources Offshore, Inc. ("Burlington") that W&T proposes to acquire pursuant to
the Burlington Agreement (as hereinafter defined). W&T represents and warrants
to the Purchasers on the date hereof and on the Closing Time to the following
effects. When used in this Agreement unless expressly stated otherwise, the
phrase "to the knowledge of W&T" shall mean what is actually known by Tracy W.
Krohn and W. Reid Lea, or what either of them would reasonably be expected to
know in view of his position as the chief executive officer and chief financial
officer, respectively, of a business organization similar to W&T. Any matter set
forth

                                       -2-

<PAGE>

on any schedule as an exception to one representation and warranty shall be
deemed to be included on every other schedule that would be applicable to such
matter to the extent such other exception is reasonably apparent.

                (a)     Organization and Existence, etc. W&T (i) is a
corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws
of the State of Nevada, and has all requisite power and authority to own, lease
and operate its properties and to carry on its business as now conducted and
proposed to be conducted, and (ii) is duly qualified to do business as a foreign
corporation and is in good standing (or the equivalent thereof under applicable
law) in each jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business requires such

and will not have a W&T Material Adverse Effect). "W&T Material Adverse Effect"
means any development, change or effect or any series of related developments,
changes or effects that would be reasonably expected to impact the financial
condition or results of operations of W&T by at least $10,000,000. W&T has

                (b)     Subsidiaries, etc. Except for those described on
Schedule 3.1(b), (i) W&T has no subsidiaries and owns no securities of other
entities, and (ii) all issued and outstanding shares of capital stock or other
equity ownership interests of W&T's subsidiaries have been duly authorized and
validly issued and are fully paid, nonassessable and free of preemptive rights
and are owned by W&T or a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of W&T,
free and clear of all Liens. As used herein, "Lien" means any lien, pledge,
claim, option, charge, easement, security interest, financing statement,
right-of-way, encumbrance or other right of any third party.

                (c)     Capitalization.

                        (i)     As of the date hereof, (A) W&T's authorized
capital stock consists of: 100,000 shares of common stock, $.01 par value per
share ("W&T Common Stock"), of which 3,900 shares are validly issued and
outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable; and (B) W&T has outstanding the
securities set forth on Schedule 3.1(c)(i), which are convertible into or
exercisable or exchangeable for W&T Common Stock (the "W&T Derivative
Securities"). From the date hereof to the Closing Time, there will be no changes
in such authorized capital stock or W&T Derivative Securities, except as
contemplated by this Agreement. At the Closing, after giving effect to the
redemption of the W&T Common Stock from William C. Bethea, a 2,911.48115

reserved for issuance upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock and (ii)
2,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, all of which will be validly
issued and outstanding.

shareholders and other security holders of record of W&T (other than the
Purchasers and Jefferies & Company, Inc.) and the number of shares and other
securities so held as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Time. At the
Closing, all the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of W&T will be
free of preemptive and similar rights (except as provided in Section V of the
existing Stockholders' Agreement of W&T, a copy of which has been delivered to
the Purchasers) and will have been and will be offered, issued, sold and
delivered by W&T in transactions in compliance with applicable federal, state

its obligations hereunder and thereunder. This Agreement, the Stockholders'
Agreement and each of the other agreements required to be delivered hereunder or
thereunder to which W&T is a party will be prior to the Closing Time, duly
authorized, executed and delivered by W&T, and each constitutes, or will
constitute when executed and delivered, a legal, valid and binding agreement of
W&T, enforceable against W&T in accordance with its terms, subject to

relating to or affecting creditors' rights and to general principles of equity.
Subject to the foregoing, the compliance by W&T with the provisions of this
Agreement, the Stockholders' Agreement or any of the other agreements required
to be delivered hereunder to which it is a party, and the consummation of the
other transactions herein or therein contemplated will not result in the
creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of the assets of W&T pursuant to the
terms or provisions of, or result in a breach or violation of or conflict with
any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or give any
other party a right to terminate any of its obligations under, or result in the
acceleration of any obligation under, (i) the Articles of Incorporation and/or
By-laws or other governing instruments of W&T, (ii) any contract or other
agreement to which W&T is a party or by which W&T or any of its properties is

than as set forth in the Stockholders' Agreement) and will have the
designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional and special
rights as set forth in the Articles of Incorporation.

                        (iii)   The shares of W&T Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock (the "Conversion Shares") shall be
duly authorized and reserved for issuance prior to the Closing, and when issued
and delivered in accordance with the provisions of the Articles of
Incorporation, will be validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and
nonassessable and will be free of preemptive rights and granted clear of any
Liens (other than as set forth in the Stockholders' Agreement).

produced from the properties comprising the Oil and Gas Interests (as
hereinafter defined), including oil in storage (the "Hydrocarbons"), designs
associated with the foregoing, and other technical and/or confidential
information (collectively, "W&T Intellectual Property") relating to its business
as presently conducted and proposed to be conducted by W&T or otherwise used in
or necessary for the proper conduct of its business, free and clear of all Liens
and Encumbrances, other than Permitted Encumbrances (as such terms are
hereinafter defined); and W&T has no obligation to any other person with respect
to the W&T Intellectual Property or any product or process of W&T utilizing or
embodying any W&T Intellectual Property. There are no limitations contained in
agreements of the type described in this Section 3.1(k) which in any way relate
to the W&T Intellectual Property which, upon consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, will materially alter or impair any such rights,
materially breach any such agreement with any third party vendor, or require
payments of additional sums thereunder. W&T is in compliance in all material
respects with such licenses and agreements and there are no pending or, to the
knowledge of W&T, threatened proceedings challenging or questioning the validity
or effectiveness of any license or agreement relating to such property or the
right of W&T or any subsidiary to use, copy, modify or distribute the same.

                        (ii)    W&T does not have any patents or patent
applications nor are any patents or patent applications required for the conduct
of its business as now conducted.

                        (iii)   To the knowledge of W&T, having made appropriate
inquiries of the relevant senior W&T executives responsible for such matters,
there is (A) no infringement, misuse or misappropriation of any W&T Intellectual
Property owned, licensed or controlled by any third party arising out of any
business activities now or previously conducted by or on behalf of W&T, (B) no
pending or, to the knowledge of W&T, threatened claim or challenge of or
proceeding for infringement, misuse or misappropriation of or interference with
any W&T Intellectual Property owned, licensed or controlled by any third party

behalf of W&T, (C) no pending or threatened or potential claim, challenge or
proceeding by W&T against any third party for infringement, misuse or
misappropriation of or interference with any W&T Intellectual Property owned,
licensed or controlled by W&T or (D) no notice or, to the knowledge of W&T,
facts or information rendering any W&T Intellectual Property owned, controlled
or licensed by W&T invalid or unenforceable, nor, to the knowledge of W&T, is
there any allegation that any such W&T Intellectual Property is invalid or
unenforceable.

                (l)     Material Agreements. Except as set forth in Schedule
3.1(l), W&T has no currently existing contract, obligation, agreement, plan,
arrangement, commitment or the like (written or oral) of any material nature,

instruments relating to or evidencing indebtedness for borrowed money, or
mortgaging, pledging or granting or creating a Lien on any of W&T's property or
any agreement or instrument evidencing any guaranty by W&T of payment or
performance by any other person requiring the payment of more than $1,000,000;

                        (iii)   Agreements with dealers, sales representatives,

same person for the furnishing or purchase of machinery, equipment, goods or
services involving sums in excess of $1,000,000;

                        (vi)    Any indenture, agreement or other document
(including private placement brochures) relating to the sale or repurchase of
shares;

                        (vii)   Any joint venture contract or arrangement or

the acquisition of the business, assets or shares of any other business; and

                        (xi)    Insurance policies, health insurance plans,
medical plans or any other benefit plans.

        W&T has made available to the Purchasers for their review a true,
correct and complete copy of each of the contracts that are referred to on
Schedule 3.1(l), together with all material amendments, waivers or other changes
to all such documents.

        W&T, and to W&T's knowledge, having made appropriate inquiries of the
relevant senior W&T executives responsible for such matters (including W&T's
landman, Jamie Vasquez (the "W&T Landman")), each other party or obligor
thereto, has complied with all the material provisions of all contracts,
obligations, agreements, plans, arrangements, and commitments and

                                      -10-

<PAGE>

is not in default thereunder, except for defaults in any one case or in the
aggregate that would not have a W&T Material Adverse Effect. Each employee
benefit plan has been administered and operated in compliance in all material
respects with the applicable requirements of ERISA and the Code. Each such
contract, obligation, agreement, plan, arrangement and commitment is in full
force and effect, except as indicated on Schedule 3.1(l), and W&T has no reason
to believe that any such contract, obligation, agreement, plan, arrangement and
commitment will be terminated prior to its expiration date.

                (m)     Insurance. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(m), W&T
has in full force and effect insurance (including, but not limited to property
and casualty insurance, environmental liability insurance and errors and
omissions insurance), in such amounts and coverages with currently active
syndicates at Lloyd's, London and other insurance markets that, in the
reasonable judgment of the chief executive officer and the chief financial
officer of W&T, is adequate to protect W&T and its financial condition against
such losses and risks and in such amounts and with such deductibles as are
prudent and customary in the businesses in which it is engaged. W&T does not
maintain business interruption insurance. W&T has no reason to believe that,
given its claims rate as of the date hereof, it would not be able to renew its
existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain
similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its
business or W&T's proposed business, in each case at a cost not in excess of the
current cost, other than increases as a result of changes or developments
affecting the insurance industry generally that do not disproportionately impact
W&T compared to similarly situated companies in the same industry.

                (n)     Properties; Liens and Encumbrances. Schedule 3.1(n) sets
forth the address of all parcels of real property owned, leased or operated by
W&T, other than Oil and Gas Interests (as hereinafter defined in Section
3.1(q)(i)). To the knowledge of W&T, with the exceptions set forth on Schedule
3.1(n), W&T has good and marketable title in fee to such of its fixed assets as
are real property, and good and merchantable title to all of its other assets
(tangible or intangible), now carried on its books, including those reflected in
the balance sheet included in the Interim W&T Financial Statements, or acquired
since the date of such balance sheet (except personal property disposed of since
said date in the ordinary course of business), free and clear of any Lien or
Encumbrance, except for Permitted Encumbrances. As used herein, "Encumbrance"
shall mean and include all Liens and shall also include reservations,
exceptions, encroachments, easements, rights-of-way, covenants, conditions,
restrictions, leases and other title exceptions and encumbrances affecting
property. For the purposes hereof, W&T shall be deemed to be the owner of any
property which it has acquired or holds subject to a conditional sale agreement
or other arrangement pursuant to which title to the property has been retained
by or vested in some other person for security purposes. For the purposes
hereof, "Permitted Encumbrances" shall mean and include:

                        (i)     Encumbrances for taxes, assessments, or other
governmental charges not yet due or which are being contested in good faith by
appropriate action promptly initiated and diligently conducted, if such accruals
as shall be required by GAAP shall have been made therefor;

                                      -11-

<PAGE>

                        (ii)    any (A) undetermined or inchoate Liens or
charges constituting or securing the payment of expenses that were incurred
incidental to maintenance, development, production or operation of oil and gas
properties or for the purpose of developing, producing or processing oil, gas or
other hydrocarbons therefrom or therein securing payment of expenses not yet due
or which are being contested in good faith by appropriate action promptly
initiated and diligently conducted, if such accruals as shall be required by
GAAP shall have been made therefor, and (B) materialman's, vendors', mechanics',
repairman's, employees', contractors', operators' or other similar Liens or
charges for liquidated amounts arising in the ordinary course of business
securing payment of amounts not yet due or which are being contested in good
faith by appropriate action promptly initiated and diligently conducted, if such
accruals as shall be required by GAAP shall have been made therefor;

                        (iii)   any liens or security interests created by law
or reserved in oil and gas leases for lessor royalty, bonus or rental payments
not yet due or which are being contested in good faith by appropriate action
promptly initiated and diligently conducted, if such reserves as shall be
required by GAAP shall have been made therefor;

                        (iv)    preferential rights to purchase or similar
rights not applicable to the transactions contemplated hereby, as listed on
Schedule 3.1(n)(iv);

                        (v)     third party consents to assignment or similar
consent rights of third parties not required for nor applicable to the
transactions contemplated hereby;

                        (vi)    all rights to consent by, required notices to,
filings with, or other actions by any regulatory authority, administrative
agency or any other governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, in
connection with the sale or conveyance of the oil and gas leases or interests
therein;

                        (vii)   inchoate liens arising under ERISA to secure the
contingent liabilities, if any, permitted by this Agreement; and

                        (viii)  the Encumbrances described in Schedule
3.1(n)(viii) hereto.

                (o)     Leases. Set forth on Schedule 3.1(o) is a correct and
complete list (including the amount of rents called for and a description of the
leased property) of all material leases under which W&T is a lessee, other than
leases comprising any of the Oil and Gas Interests. Except as set forth on
Schedule 3.1(o), W&T enjoys peaceful and undisturbed possession under all such
leases and, all of such leases are valid and subsisting and neither W&T nor, to
the knowledge of W&T, any other party, is in default under any such leases in
any material respect.

                (p)     Environmental, Conservation and Safety Matters.

                        (i)     To the knowledge of W&T, having made appropriate

carry on its business as now conducted, and W&T is, and has been, in compliance
in all material respects with such Operating Permits.

                        (ii)    Except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(p)(ii), to
the knowledge of W&T, having made appropriate inquiries of the relevant senior
W&T executives responsible for such matters, W&T is, and has been, in compliance
with all applicable Environmental, Conservation or Safety Laws in all material
respects. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(p)(ii) and to the knowledge of
W&T, having made appropriate inquiries of the relevant senior W&T executives
responsible for such matters, W&T is not subject to any liability, penalty or
expense (including legal fees) and will not hereafter suffer or incur any loss,
liability, penalty or expense (including legal fees) by virtue of any violation
of any Environmental, Conservation or Safety Law occurring prior to the Closing
Time, any activity regulated by such Laws and conducted at or prior to the
Closing Time or any regulated condition existing on or with respect to any
property at or prior to the Closing Time, in each case whether or not W&T
permitted or participated in such act or omission.

                        (iii)   Except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(p)(iii),
there is no suit, claim, action, proceeding, investigation or inquiry pending
or, to the knowledge of W&T, threatened before any court, governmental agency or
authority or other forum in which W&T has been or, with respect to threatened
suits, actions and proceedings, may be named as a defendant or respondent (A)
for alleged noncompliance (including by any predecessor) with any Environmental,
Conservation or Safety Law or (B) relating to the release or threatened release
into the environment of any Hazardous Material (as defined below), asbestos,
naturally occurring radioactive materials (as defined by Louisiana
Administrative Code LAC 33:XV.1403), polychlorinated biphenyls or petroleum,
including crude oil or any fraction or product thereof (such materials, together
with Hazardous Materials, collectively, "Regulated Materials"), whether or not
occurring at, on, under or involving a site owned, leased or operated by W&T.
"Hazardous Material" shall mean any pollutant, contaminant, or hazardous
substance within the meaning of the Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation, and Liability Act, 42 U.S.C. Sections 6901 et seq., as amended
("CERCLA"), oil within the meaning of the Oil Pollution Act of 1990, 33 U.S.C.
Sections 2701 through 2761, or any similar state or local law.

inquiries of the relevant senior W&T executives responsible for such matters,
and except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(p)(iv), there are no physical or
environmental conditions existing on any of the Oil and Gas Interests operated
by W&T or resulting from W&T's operations or activities, past or present, at any
location, that would give rise to any on-site or off-site remedial obligations
under any application of any Environmental, Safety or Conservation Law, other
than normal and ordinary remedial work associated with plugging and abandoning
of oil and gas facilities.

senior W&T executives responsible for such matters, and except as set forth on
Schedule 3.1(p)(v), during the period of ownership and operation, and (B) to the
knowledge of W&T without any duty of inquiry, prior to the period of ownership
by W&T of any of its current properties and during the period of ownership by
W&T of any of its current non-operated properties, there have been no
underground storage tanks (whether currently active or not) and no
polychlorinated biphenyls in transformers or other electrical equipment and
there have been no releases of Regulated Materials in, on, under or affecting
such properties or from any such properties onto any surrounding site. Except as
set forth on Schedule 3.1(p)(v), to the knowledge of W&T, prior to the period of
operation, and to the knowledge of W&T without any duty of inquiry, prior to the
period of ownership, by W&T of any of its current properties there were no
releases of Regulated Materials in, on, under or affecting any such property or
any surrounding site.

                        (vi)    To the knowledge of W&T, having made appropriate
inquiries of the relevant senior W&T executives responsible for such matters,
W&T has not treated, stored, recycled or disposed of, or allowed or arranged for
any third person to treat, store, recycle or dispose of, any Regulated Material
other than in accordance with applicable law. To the knowledge of W&T, W&T has
not transported any Regulated Material or arranged for the transportation of any
Regulated Material to any location that is listed or proposed for listing on the
National Priorities List pursuant to CERCLA, or any other location that is the
subject of federal, state or local enforcement action or other investigation

                        (vii)   W&T has made available to the Purchasers true,
correct and complete copies of all reports and filings made or filed by W&T
pursuant to the Occupational Safety and Health Act, or pursuant to worker health

relevant senior W&T executives responsible for such matters, and except as set
forth on Schedule 3.1(p)(vii), W&T has not violated in any material respect or
failed to comply in any material respect with, or been subject of any written
allegation regarding worker health and safety by the Occupational Safety and
Health Administration, the Minerals Management Services or Coast Guard, or
violated in any material respect or, failed to comply in any material respect
with the worker health and safety rules or regulations promulgated by those
agencies.

                (q)     Oil and Gas Interests.

                        (i)     Schedule 3.1(q)(i) contains a complete and
accurate list of all oil, gas and/or mineral leases, mineral rights and
servitudes, fee interests owned for the purpose of mineral development,
MMS-approved pipeline rights-of-way and servitudes held by W&T or in

                                      -14-

<PAGE>

which W&T owns any interest (the "Oil and Gas Interests"). Schedule 3.1(q)(i)
designates those Oil and Gas Interests that collectively comprise the "Material
Oil and Gas Interests." The Material Oil and Gas Interests represent in excess
of 80 percent of the value of the Oil and Gas Interests. Schedule 3.1(q)(i) also
indicates which Oil and Gas Interests are operated by W&T.

                        (ii)    To the knowledge of W&T, having made appropriate
inquiries of the relevant senior W&T executives responsible for such matters,
W&T has good and defensible title to the Material Oil and Gas Interests free and
clear of any Encumbrance other than Permitted Encumbrances. To the knowledge of
W&T, having made appropriate inquiries of the relevant senior W&T executives
responsible for such matters, the ownership interests of W&T in the Material Oil
and Gas Interests do and will, as of the Closing Time, (A) with respect to each
tract of land described in Schedule 3.1(q)(i) (whether described directly in
Schedule 3.1(q)(i) or described by reference to another instrument) in
connection with such Material Oil and Gas Interests, (1) entitle W&T to receive
a decimal or percentage share of the Hydrocarbons produced from, or allocated
to, such tract equal to not less than the decimal or percentage share set forth
in Schedule 3.1(q)(i) in connection with such tract directly opposite the
designation "NRI" or "Net Revenue Interest" (or words or abbreviations of
similar import), (2) cause W&T to be obligated to bear a decimal or percentage
share of the cost of exploration, development, operation and abandonment of such
tract of land not greater than the decimal or percentage share set forth in
Schedule 3.1(q)(i) in connection with such tract directly opposite the
designation "WI" or "Working Interest" (or words or abbreviations of similar
import), and (B) if any such Material Oil and Gas Interest is shown on Schedule
3.1(q)(i) to be subject to a unit or units, with respect to each such unit, (1)
entitle W&T to receive a decimal or percentage share of all Hydrocarbons covered
by such unit which are produced from, or allocated to, such unit equal to not
less than the decimal or percentage share set forth in Schedule 3.1(q)(i) in
connection with such Material Oil and Gas Interest opposite the words "Unit Net
Revenue Interest" or words of similar import (and if such Material Oil and Gas
Interest is subject to more than one unit, words identifying such interest with
such unit), and (2) obligate W&T to bear a decimal or percentage share of the
cost of exploration, development, operation and abandonment of such unit not
greater than the decimal or percentage share set forth in Schedule 3.1(q)(i) in
connection with such Material Oil and Gas Interest opposite the words "Unit
Working Interest" or words of similar import (and if such Material Oil and Gas
Interest is subject to more than one unit, words identifying such interest with
such unit). With respect to each property described as a Material Oil and Gas
Interest on Schedule 3.1(q)(i) which is subject to a voluntary or involuntary
pooling, unitization or communitization agreement and/or order, the term "tract
of land" as used in this subparagraph shall mean the pooled, unitized or
communitized area as an entirety and shall not be deemed to refer to any
individual tract committed to said pooled, unitized or communitized area.
Without limitation of the foregoing, the ownership by W&T of the Material Oil
and Gas Interests does and will, as of the Closing Time, with respect to each
well or unit identified in Schedule 3.1(q)(i), made a part hereof, entitle W&T
to receive a decimal or percentage share of the oil, gas and other Hydrocarbons
produced from, or allocated to, such well or unit equal to not less than the
decimal or percentage share set forth for such well or unit in the column headed
"Net Revenue Interest" in Schedule 3.1(q)(i), and cause W&T to be obligated to
bear a decimal or percentage share of the cost of operation of such well or unit
equal to not more than the decimal or percentage share set forth for such well
or unit in the column headed "Working

                                      -15-

<PAGE>

Interest" in Schedule 3.1(q)(i). The above-described shares of production which
W&T is entitled to receive and shares of expenses which W&T is obligated to bear
are not and will not be as of the Closing Time subject to change (other than
changes which arise pursuant to non-consent provisions of operating agreements
described in Schedule 3.1(q)(i) in connection with operations hereafter
proposed), except, and only to the extent that, such changes are reflected in
Schedule 3.1(q)(i).

                        (iii)   To the knowledge of W&T, including the knowledge
of W&T Landman, the oil, gas and/or mineral leases, contracts, servitudes and
other agreements forming a part of the Material Oil and Gas Interests described
in Schedule 3.1(q)(i) and operated by W&T and, to the actual knowledge of W&T,
including the actual knowledge of the W&T Landman, operated by others, are in
full force and effect, having been maintained in accordance with the terms
thereof, except as indicated on Schedule 3.1(q)(iii). Schedule 3.1(q)(iii-a)
sets forth a list of the material contracts and agreements relating to the
Material Oil & Gas Interests, or which may affect W&T's interest therein as
described in Schedule 3.1(q)(i) (the "Basic Oil and Gas Documents"). W&T has
made available to the Purchasers for their review a true, correct and complete
copy of each of the Basic Oil & Gas Documents, together with all material
amendments, waivers or other changes to all such documents. W&T has no reason to
believe that any Basic Oil and Gas Document will be terminated prior to its
expiration date. All payments (including all delay rentals, royalties, shut-in
royalties and valid calls for payment or prepayment under operating agreements)
owing under the Basic Oil and Gas Documents have been and are being made
(timely, and before the same became delinquent) by W&T in all material respects
(and, where the non-payment of same by a third party could reasonably be
expected to materially adversely affect the ownership, operation, value or use
of a Material Oil and Gas Interest after the Closing Time have been and are
being made, to W&T's knowledge, by such third parties). For the purposes of the
representations contained in this subparagraph (and without limitation of such
representations), the non-payment of an amount, or non-performance of an
obligation, where such non-payment or non-performance could reasonably be
expected to result in the forfeiture or termination of rights of W&T under a
Basic Oil and Gas Document, shall be considered material. W&T is not in default
with respect to W&T's obligations (and W&T is not aware of any default by any
third party acting on W&T's behalf with respect to such third party's
obligations) under such leases, contracts, servitudes and other of the Basic Oil
and Gas Documents, or otherwise attendant to the ownership or operation of any
part of the Material Oil and Gas Properties by W&T where such default could
reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the ownership or operation
of the Material Oil and Gas Properties; and to W&T's knowledge, each other party
or obligor thereto has complied with all the material provisions of the Basic
Oil and Gas Documents and is not in default thereunder. W&T is not currently
accounting (and will not, through the Closing Time, hereafter agree to account)
for any royalties, or overriding royalties or other payments out of production,
on a basis (other than delivery in kind) less favorable to W&T than the value of
the proceeds received by W&T (calculated at the well) from sale of production,
and there are no situations where W&T is aware that a contingent liability may
exist to account on a basis less favorable to W&T than the basis on which W&T is
currently accounting.

                        (iv)    Except as set forth in Schedule 3.1(q)(iv), W&T
has not abandoned any wells (or removed any material items of equipment, except
those replaced by items of materially equal suitability) included in the
Material Oil and Gas Interests and identified on or considered in the generating
of the Reserve Report since the effective date of the Reserve Report.

                        (v)     Schedule 3.1(q)(v) sets forth a list of all of
the contracts to which W&T is a party providing for the transportation,
processing or sale of substantially all of the Hydrocarbons (the "Schedule
3.1(q)(v) Contracts"). W&T has made available to the Purchasers for their review
a true, correct and complete copy of each of the Schedule 3.1(q)(v) Contracts,
together with all material amendments, waivers or other changes to all such
documents. Except for the Schedule 3.1(q)(v) Contracts, W&T has no currently
existing contract, obligation, agreement, plan, arrangement, commitment or the
like (written or oral) relating to the transportation, sale, or processing of
Hydrocarbons. None of the Oil and Gas Interests is subject to any contractual or
other arrangement (A) whereby payment for production is or can be deferred for a
substantial period after the month in which such production is delivered (i.e.,
in the case of oil, not in excess of 60 days, and in the case of gas, not in
excess of 90 days) except by W&T's choice, or (B) whereby payments are made to
W&T other than by checks, drafts, wire transfer advises or other similar
writings, instruments or communications for the immediate payment of money. The
Schedule 3.1(q)(v) Contracts (A) may or may not be cancelable on 120 days (or
less) notice but are priced at market rates and indexes until termination and
(B) are bona fide arm's length transactions with third parties not affiliated
with W&T. W&T is presently receiving a price for production from (or
attributable to) each of the Oil and Gas Interests covered by the Schedule
3.1(q)(v) Contracts as computed in accordance with the terms of such contracts,
and is not having deliveries of production from such properties curtailed
substantially below such properties' delivery capacity by the purchasers or
transporters of the production. As of December 31, 2001, W&T had not, and, since
December 31, 2001, to W&T's knowledge, W&T has not, received prepayments for
oil, gas or other Hydrocarbons (A) that, except as set forth on Schedule
3.1(q)(v), were produced from the Oil & Gas Interests prior to the date hereof
(or the Closing Time, as applicable) that have not been satisfied from
Hydrocarbons produced prior to the date hereof (or the Closing Time, as
applicable) from such Oil & Gas Interests and (B) that are to be produced from
the Oil & Gas Interests after the date hereof (or the Closing Time, as
applicable). To W&T's actual knowledge, none of W&T's predecessors in title has
received prepayments for oil, gas or other Hydrocarbons (A) that were produced
from the Oil & Gas Interests prior to the date hereof (or the Closing Time, as
applicable) that have not been satisfied from Hydrocarbons produced prior to the
date hereof (or the Closing Time, as applicable) from such Oil & Gas Interests
and (B) that are to be produced from the Oil & Gas Interests after the date
hereof (or the Closing Time, as applicable). Except as set forth on Schedule
3.1(q)(v-a), (A) W&T has not, to its knowledge, prior to the date hereof, taken
more ("overproduced") or less ("underproduced") oil or gas from the lands
covered thereby (or pooled or unitized therewith) than its ownership interest in
such properties would entitle it to take and excepting that normal daily
operations of oil and gas production and sales by W&T and its partners results
in routine and ongoing overproduction and underproduction and (B) some of the
properties affected by the Schedule 3.1(q)(v) Contracts may be subject to a gas
balancing arrangement under which one or more third parties may take a portion
of the production attributable to such property without payment (or without full
payment) therefore as a result of

                                      -17-

<PAGE>

production having been taken from, or as a result of other actions or inactions
with respect to, other properties. None of the properties comprising the Oil and
Gas Interests is subject at the present time to any regulatory refund obligation
that would result in an expense or liability to W&T, and, to W&T's knowledge, no
facts exist which might cause the same to be imposed.

                        (vi)    W&T maintains its equipment, inventory,
improvements, fixtures, goods and other tangible personal property in good
repair, consistent with prudent industry standards. W&T has no reason to believe
that the amount that will be spent on maintenance, including capital
maintenance, will be materially greater in 2003 (after giving credit for
insurance proceeds), as compared to such expenditures in 2002 with respect to
properties which were owned in both periods (and excluding the assets of
Burlington).

                        (vii)   To the knowledge of W&T, having made appropriate
inquiries of the relevant senior W&T executives responsible for such matters,
the Material Oil and Gas Interests that are operated by W&T, and to the actual
knowledge of W&T, including the actual knowledge of the W&T Landman, those that
are not operated by W&T, (and properties unitized therewith) are being
maintained, operated and developed in a good and workmanlike manner, in
accordance with prudent industry standards and in conformity in all material
respects with all applicable laws and all rules, regulations and orders of all
duly constituted authorities having jurisdiction and in conformity with all oil,
gas and/or other mineral leases and other material contracts and agreements
forming a part of the Material Oil and Gas Interests; specifically in this
connection, to the knowledge of W&T, having made appropriate inquiries of the
relevant senior W&T executives responsible for such matters, none of the wells
that are operated by W&T, and to the actual knowledge of W&T, including the
actual knowledge of the W&T Landman, those that are not operated by W&T and
located on any lands covered by, or otherwise forming part of, the Material Oil
and Gas Interests (or properties unitized therewith) are or will be deviated
from the vertical more than the maximum permitted by applicable laws,
regulations, rules and orders, and such wells are, and will remain, as of the
Closing Time, bottomed under and producing from, with the well bores wholly
within, the lands covered by the Material Oil and Gas Interests (or in the case
of wells located on properties unitized therewith, such unitized properties). To
the knowledge of W&T, having made appropriate inquiries of the relevant senior
W&T executives responsible for such matters, there are no wells being drilled,
deepened, plugged back or reworked by W&T, or to the actual knowledge of W&T,
including the actual knowledge of the W&T Landman, by others, and no other
similar operations by W&T are being conducted, for which consent of other
interest owners is required and has not been obtained or which is not covered by
the non-consent provisions of the applicable operating agreement. There are no
proposals currently outstanding (whether made by W&T or, to W&T's knowledge, by
any other party) to drill, deepen, plug back, sidetrack, or rework wells or to
conduct any other similar operations, or to abandon any wells (nor are there any
such proposals which have been approved either by W&T or, to W&T's knowledge, by
any other party, with respect to which the operations covered thereby have not
been commenced), which involve an expenditure to W&T in excess of $10,000,000,
except as set forth in Schedule 3.1(q)(vii) or which would otherwise be outside
the normal course of W&T's business. To the knowledge of W&T, having made
appropriate inquiries of the relevant senior W&T executives responsible for such
matters, W&T has all governmental licenses and permits necessary to own and
operate the Material Oil and Gas

                                      -18-

<PAGE>

Interests that are operated by it and W&T has not received notice of any
violations or, to W&T's knowledge, possible violations, with respect to any such
licenses or permits.

                        (viii)  W&T represents that Schedule 3.1(q)(viii) is a
printout dated November 12, 2002, generated from the accounting records
maintained by and for W&T, that lists, among other things, all of the oil, gas
or other Hydrocarbon properties with respect to which W&T has received revenues
and/or paid expenses since 1996, and that such listing includes properties that
are currently active, properties that are inactive and properties that have been
sold or abandoned or have otherwise expired.

                        (ix)    W&T represents that Schedule 3.1(q)(ix) is a
printout dated November 12, 2002, generated from the accounting records
maintained by W&T for W&T Offshore, LLC, that lists, among other things, all of
the oil, gas or other Hydrocarbon properties with respect to which W&T Offshore,
LLC has received revenues and/or paid expenses since 1996, and that such listing
includes properties that are currently active, properties that are inactive and
properties that have been sold or abandoned or have otherwise expired.

                (r)     Gas and Oil Reserves. W&T has delivered to the Purchaser
Representative (as hereinafter defined) a copy of W&T's most recent Reserve
Report, as prepared by W&T's independent reserve engineers. W&T has no reason to
believe that the conclusions of such Reserve Report are not correct in all
material respects as of the effective date of such Reserve Report.

                (s)     Wells. Schedule 3.1(s-a) includes a complete and
accurate list of each oil or gas well owned by W&T included in its Reserve
Reports (each a "Reserve Report Well") and the production status, working
interest and operating interest of W&T therein. None of W&T's wells is currently
subject to a compliance order or other similar order of a governmental agency
having jurisdiction to plug and abandon such well prior to the actual expiration
of the lease of the property on which such well is situated except that the
wells on Schedule 3.1(s-b) are on leases that will require their abandonment in
an amount of time estimated to be within the next year. W&T has provided to the
Purchaser Representative a copy of a report of Twachtman Snyder & Byrd, Inc.
("Twachtman"), dated April 22, 1998, regarding the properties to be acquired by
the Burlington Agreement. In the opinion of W&T, the costs of plugging and
abandoning all of W&T's existing wells will be approximately $35,000,000, net to
W&T after salvage. W&T has no reason to believe that the conclusions of
Twachtman or of W&T are not correct in all material respects.

                (t)     Ordinary Course; No Material Adverse Change. Since
December 31, 2001, W&T, except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(t) or as explicitly
contemplated by this Agreement or any Schedule or Exhibit hereto, has conducted
its business in the ordinary course, has not incurred any material obligation,
absolute or contingent, or entered into any material transactions not in the
ordinary course of business, and, except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(t), has
not declared or paid any dividends or other distributions, tax or otherwise, on
its capital stock. Since December 31, 2001, there has been no event, occurrence,
development, change or effect that has had, individually or in the aggregate, a
W&T Material Adverse Effect.

                                      -19-

<PAGE>

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that (i) upon execution of the
Bethea Redemption Agreement (attached hereto as Exhibit D), W&T shall declare a
dividend in the amount of $11,400,000 payable to stockholders of record as of
the date that the Bethea Redemption Agreement is executed and (ii) W&T shall pay
a bonus in respect of 2002 to Tracy W. Krohn in the amount of $250,000.

                (u)     Agent's Fees. Except for Jefferies & Company, Inc.,
whose fees are set forth on Schedule 3.1(u) and will be paid by W&T, W&T has not
retained a finder or broker in connection with the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement nor is W&T obligated to pay any other fees or expenses (including
of Jefferies & Company, Inc.) of a finder.

                (v)     W&T Expenses. There are no expenses reimbursed, or
reimbursable, by W&T to any of its employees, consultants, officers, directors,
shareholders, agents or representatives other than reasonable, ordinary and
properly-vouchered expenses incurred in the performance of services to W&T in
accordance with reasonable policies as in effect from time to time.

                (w)     Bethea Disclosure. At the time of the closing of the
transactions contemplated by the Bethea Redemption Agreement, W&T will have
fully provided the Bethea Group with all the information that the Bethea Group
will have reasonably requested in deciding whether to sell its equity interest
in W&T and W&T Offshore LLC. The information with respect to W&T provided to the
Bethea Group upon such requests did not, or will not, as the case may be,
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements and
writings contained therein not false or misleading in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made. The term "Bethea Group" shall mean
William C. Bethea, individually ("Bethea"), Claudette Bethea, individually, and
William C. Bethea, as Trustee for each of the separate irrevocable trusts
established for the benefit of each of Claude Bethea, James Bethea, Michael
Bethea, William Bethea, II, and Lori Reixach (the "Bethea Trusts").

                (x)     Burlington Disclosure. W&T has made available to the
Purchasers true, accurate and complete copies of the Agreement and Plan of
Merger, dated as of May 7, 2002 (the "Merger Agreement"), by and among
Burlington Resources Offshore, Inc., The Louisiana Land and Exploration Company,
LLOXY Holdings, Inc. and W&T Offshore, Inc. (including any amendments to date
thereof) and all agreements ancillary to the Merger Agreement (collectively, the
"Burlington Agreement").

                (y)     Disclosure. The information with respect to W&T
heretofore provided and to be provided, by W&T pursuant to this Agreement,
including the Schedules and Exhibits hereto and the Burlington Agreement, and
each of the agreements, documents, certificates and writings to be delivered to
the Purchasers or their representatives at or prior to the Closing, does not and
will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
material fact required to be stated herein or therein or necessary in order to
make the statements and writings contained herein and therein not false or
misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were made;
provided, however, that to the extent the foregoing representation regards

                                      -20-

<PAGE>

a statement or omission by any party other than W&T such representation is made
subject to the knowledge of W&T. To the knowledge of W&T, there is no fact that
would have a W&T Material Adverse Effect that has not been set forth herein or
otherwise disclosed in writing to the Purchasers.

                (z)     Registration Rights. Except as may be provided in this
Agreement or in the Stockholders' Agreement, W&T is not under any obligation to
register any of its currently outstanding securities or any of its securities
that may hereafter be issued.

                (aa)    Credit Agreement. W&T has no reason to believe that it
will not be able to make commercially reasonable arrangements with its lenders
in order to satisfy the condition set forth in Section 5.12.

                (bb)    Offering. Assuming the accuracy of the Purchasers'
representations and warranties in Section 4.1, the offer and issuance of the
Series A Preferred Stock to be acquired by them as contemplated by this
Agreement, are not subject to the registration requirements of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and neither W&T nor anyone
acting on its behalf has taken or will take any action that would cause such
registration requirements to be applicable.

                (cc)    Stockholder Equity. As of the Closing Time, after giving
effect to the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereunder W&T's
total stockholder equity shall equal at least $180,000,000, calculated without
giving effect to any adjustment to the balance sheet of W&T resulting from the
change to the accrual method of accounting or the transactions contemplated by
the Burlington Agreement. W&T estimates, in good faith, that the reduction in
total stockholder equity resulting from the change to the accrual method of
accounting for tax purposes will not exceed $$15,000,000 in respect of the next
four tax periods.

                (dd)    W&T Offshore LLC. Attached hereto as Schedule 3.1(dd) is
a statement of the assets owned by W&T Offshore LLC as of September 30, 2002.

        3.2     Representations and Warranties Related to the Burlington Assets.

                (a)     W&T has made available to the Purchasers for their
review true, correct and complete copies of the Burlington Agreement. W&T is not
aware of a breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants, terms or
provisions of the Burlington Agreement. Except as set forth in Schedule 3.2(a),
W&T has satisfied all of its conditions necessary to consummate the transactions
contemplated by the Burlington Agreement and has no reason to believe that
Burlington will not satisfy its conditions on or prior to February 28, 2003. W&T
makes no additional representations and with respect to the assets and
liabilities acquired from Burlington Resources Offshore, Inc.

                (b)     The consummation of the Burlington Agreement will not
involve the issuance of any capital stock by W&T.

                                      -21-

<PAGE>

                (c)     Upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by
the Burlington Agreement, all issued and outstanding shares of capital stock or
other equity ownership interests of W&T Energy I LLC, W&T Energy II LLC and W&T
Energy III LLC shall have been duly authorized and validly issued and shall be
fully paid, nonassessable and free of preemptive rights and shall be owned by
W&T or a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of W&T, free and clear of
all Liens.

                REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE PURCHASERS

        Each Purchaser, severally but not jointly, represents and warrants to
W&T (as to itself only) as follows:

matters to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in
W&T, (iii) it is acquiring the Series A Preferred Stock and, upon conversion of

(as hereinafter defined), for investment for its own account and not with a view
to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof, except pursuant
to sales registered or exempted under the Securities Act; provided, however,
that by making the representations herein, it does not agree to hold any shares
of the Series A Preferred Stock or the Conversion Shares for any minimum or
other specific term and reserves the right to dispose of shares of the Series A
Preferred Stock or the Conversion Shares at any time in accordance with or
pursuant to a registration statement or an exemption under the Securities Act
and in accordance with the terms of the Stockholders' Agreement, and (iv) it
understands that the shares of Series A Preferred Stock and the Conversion
Shares, if any, to be acquired by it have not been registered under the
Securities Act and it will not offer, sell, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or
otherwise dispose of any shares of the Series A Preferred Stock or Conversion
Shares, if any, except pursuant to an exemption from, or otherwise in a
transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act

and, in each case, in accordance with any applicable state securities or "blue

its advisors had access to all premises, assets, documentation and information
necessary to form an independent determination as to the value of W&T's assets,
liabilities and the financial condition, results of operations, business and

account in which entries will be made of all dealings or transactions in
relation to the business and affairs of W&T and its subsidiaries, if any, in

        7.3     Inspection. W&T shall grant the Purchasers the right, which the
Purchasers may exercise through their designated representative, FS Private
Investments III LLC, or any of their respective officers, employees,
representatives or such other person as the Purchasers may designate (the
"Purchaser Representative"), upon five business days' prior notice and during
normal business hours as often as such Purchaser Representative may request, to
visit and inspect the offices and properties of W&T or any of its subsidiaries,
and (i) to make extracts or copies of the books, accounts and records of W&T or
any of its subsidiaries, and (ii) to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts
of W&T or any of its subsidiaries, with W&T and officers of W&T and its
independent public accountants. The Purchaser Representative shall have the
right to participate in the semi-annual reserve reviews conducted for the
benefit of W&T's banks. W&T will furnish the Purchaser Representative with such
financial and operating data and other information with respect to the business
and properties of W&T as the Purchaser Representative may, from time to time,
reasonably request. W&T acknowledges that the rights set forth in this Section
7.3 are essential to the Purchasers as a means of evaluating their investment in
W&T and agree that in no event will they make any claim of any kind as a result
of the exercise by the Purchasers of such rights and hereby waive any and all
rights it may have to make such claims. The Purchaser Representative will not be
allowed to copy geological or geophysical data, but will be allowed to inspect
such data at W&T's offices; provided, that, the Purchaser Representative shall
not be entitled to inspect such data if any employee, member or Affiliate of an
FS Management Company serves on the board of directors (or similar governing
body) of a Competing Person; provided, however, that Ascent Energy, Inc. shall
not be a Competing Person for purposes of this Section 7.3. The Purchaser
Representative shall not disclose to the

                                      -29-

<PAGE>

Purchasers any specific geological or geophysical data (that is not, or has not
become publicly available), but may present summary information about the
classification and amount of W&T's reserves. The rights of the Purchasers and
the Purchaser Representative under this Section 7.3 shall also be in effect from
the date hereof through the Closing Time. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Agreement and the Stockholders' Agreement, the rights of the Purchasers and
the Purchaser Representative under this Section 7.3 shall be in addition to, and
not in lieu of, any of the rights granted to the Purchasers and their
representatives under and pursuant to the Stockholders' Agreement, including,
without limitation, Article IV and Section 5.06 thereof.

        7.4     Independent Accountants. W&T will retain an Approved Accounting
Firm to audit W&T's financial statements at the end of each fiscal year. If the
services of the Approved Accounting Firm shall be terminated, W&T shall promptly
notify the Purchasers of the occurrence of such event and shall promptly
thereafter request the firm of independent public accountants whose services are
terminated to deliver to the Purchasers a letter of such firm setting forth its
understanding as to the reasons for the termination of its services and whether
there were, during the two most recent fiscal years or such period during which
said firm had been retained by W&T, any disagreements between it and W&T on any
matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or
auditing scope or procedure. In its notice, W&T shall state whether the change
of accountants was recommended or approved by the Board of Directors of W&T or
any committee thereof. In the event of such termination, W&T will promptly
thereafter engage another Approved Accounting Firm approved by the Purchasers
which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

        7.5     Further Assurances. From time to time, W&T shall execute and
deliver to the Purchaser Representative such documents and take such actions as
may be reasonably requested by the Purchaser Representative to implement and
effectuate the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

        7.6     Operation of Business. Prior to the Closing, unless otherwise
expressly contemplated by Schedule 7.6 and this Agreement or consented to in
writing by the Purchasers, W&T shall (i) operate in the ordinary course of
business, consistent with past custom and practice and in accordance with
applicable laws; (ii) preserve in all material respects its goodwill and
business organization, maintain its rights and franchises, use its commercially
reasonable efforts to retain the services of its principal officers and key
employees and maintain its relationships with its principal lessors, licensors,
suppliers, contractors, distributors, customers and others having material
business relationships with it; (iii) maintain and keep its properties and
assets in as good repair and condition as at present, ordinary wear and tear
excepted; and (iv) keep in full force and effect insurance comparable in amount
and scope of coverage to that currently maintained.

        7.7     Notice of Adverse Change. W&T shall deliver to the Purchasers
promptly after the occurrence thereof (but in any event within seven days after
such occurrence is known to W&T) notice of any condition or event that
constitutes, or the occurrence of, any of the following: (a) the institution or
threatened institution of an action, suit or proceeding against W&T or any of
its subsidiaries by or before any court, regulatory authority, administrative

                                      -30-

<PAGE>

agency or any other governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, which, if
adversely decided, could have a W&T Material Adverse Effect; or (b) any
information relating to any event, development or circumstance with respect to
or affecting W&T or any of its subsidiaries which, in W&T's reasonable judgment,
could have a W&T Material Adverse Effect or materially and adversely affect the
ability of W&T to perform its obligations under this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby. Any notice given under this Section 7.7 shall
specify the nature and period of existence of the condition, event, information,
development or circumstance, the anticipated effect thereof and what actions W&T
has taken and/or proposes to take with respect thereto. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if, following the closing of a Qualified IPO, delivery of a notice
required to be given under this Section 7.7 would, in the opinion of counsel to
W&T, require W&T to provide additional material public disclosure under federal
or state securities law in excess of the public disclosure that would be
required under federal or state securities laws had such notice not been given,
then W&T shall not be required to give such notice.

        7.8     Certain Pre-Closing Tax Matters. Except as expressly
contemplated by this Agreement, without prior notice to the Purchasers, W&T
shall not make or change any election, file any amended Tax Return, enter into
any closing agreement, settle any Tax claim or assessment relating to W&T,
surrender any right to claim a refund of Taxes, consent to any extension or
waiver of the limitation period applicable to any Tax claim or assessment
relating to W&T, fail to timely file any Tax Return, take a position on a Tax
Return not in keeping with prior practice or take any other similar action, or
omit to take any action relating to the filing of any Tax Return or the payment
of any Tax, if such election, adoption, change, amendment, agreement,
settlement, surrender, consent or other action or omission could have the effect
of increasing the present or future tax liability or decreasing any present or
future tax asset of W&T, W&T or the Purchasers. The Purchasers acknowledge and
agree that W&T will allow or cause its Subchapter "S" election status to lapse
at or prior to the Closing.

thereunder, and the declaration or ordering of the effectiveness of such
registration statement.

        "Registration Expenses" shall mean all expenses incurred by W&T in
compliance with Sections 8.3 and 8.4, including, without limitation, all
registration and filing fees (including with respect to filings required to be
made with the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. and the NASD
Regulation, Inc.), printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for W&T,
blue sky fees and expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel for the
underwriters in connection with blue sky qualifications), fees and disbursements
of all independent certified public accountants of W&T (including the expenses
of any special audits and "comfort" letters required by or incident to such
performance), fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the
securities on a securities exchange or quotation system, and rating agency fees,
except for Selling Expenses.

        "Restricted Securities" shall mean the securities of W&T required to
bear or bearing the legend set forth in Section 8.1.

        "Selling Expenses" shall mean all underwriting discounts and selling
commissions applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities.

        "Underwritten Offering" shall mean the offering and sale of Registrable
Securities in a registration pursuant to a firm commitment underwriting to an
underwriter at a fixed price for reoffering or pursuant to agency or best
efforts arrangements with a placement agent or underwriter.

        8.3     Requested Registration.

                (a)     Requests for Registration. At any time after six months
from the date that the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") declares
effective an IPO, the Initiating Holders may request registration of all or part
of their Registrable Securities under the Securities Act. Within ten days after
receipt of any such request, W&T will give written notice of such requested
registration to all other Holders of Registrable Securities. W&T will include in
such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which it has
received written requests for inclusion therein within 20 days after delivery of
W&T's notice. All registrations effected by W&T under this Section 8.3 are
referred to herein as "Demand Registrations." The Holders of Registrable
Securities will be entitled to two Demand Registrations.

                (b)     Cooperation by W&T. W&T shall and shall cause its
management to cooperate fully and to use its best efforts to effect the
registration of Registrable Securities and the sale of Registrable Securities
pursuant to a request for a Demand Registration as promptly as is practicable;
provided, however, that in the event that W&T is not then eligible to use a
registration statement on Form S-3 or other short form registration statement
under the Securities Act and W&T furnishes to the Holders a certificate of a
senior executive officer of W&T stating that the Board of Directors of W&T has
determined, in its good faith judgment, that effecting the registration at such
time would materially and adversely affect a material financing, acquisition,
disposition of assets or securities, merger or other comparable transaction by
W&T, or would require W&T to make public disclosure of information the public
disclosure of which would have a W&T Material Adverse Effect, then W&T's
obligation to effect such registration shall be deferred but not more than once
in any twelve-month period for not more than 90 days in the

                                      -35-

<PAGE>

aggregate. Cooperation by W&T and its management shall include, but not be
limited to, management's attendance and reasonable presentations in respect of
W&T at road shows with respect to the offering of Registrable Securities.

                (c)     Expenses. W&T will pay all Registration Expenses for
each Demand Registration. A registration will not count as a Demand Registration
until it has become effective; provided, however, that in any event W&T shall
not be required to pay any Registration Expenses if, as a result of the
withdrawal of a request for registration by the Initiating Holders (other than
due to a material adverse change in the business of W&T or any refusal to
proceed based upon the advice of counsel that the registration statement, or any
prospectus contained therein, contains an untrue statement of a material fact or
omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading, in which case, W&T will be required
to pay all Registration Expenses), the registration statement does not become
effective, in which case the Holders of Registrable Securities requesting
registration shall bear such Registration Expenses pro rata to the number of
Registrable Securities so included in the registration request, unless they
agree to count such registration as a Demand Registration.

                (d)     Priority on Demand Registrations. If a Demand
Registration is an Underwritten Offering, and the managing underwriters advise
W&T in writing that in their opinion the number of Registrable Securities
requested to be included exceeds the number which, in the opinion of such
managing underwriters, may be sold in such offering without materially adversely
affecting the distribution or pricing of such securities, W&T will include in
such registration such number of securities, which in the opinion of such
underwriters, may be sold, allocated among the Holders electing to participate
pro rata in accordance with the amounts of securities requested to be so
included by the respective Holders; provided, however, if less than 75% of the
Registrable Securities requested to be included in such Demand Registration have
been sold thereunder (other than at the discretion of the Holders) such
registration shall not count as a Demand Registration. W&T will not include in
any Demand Registration any securities that are not Registrable Securities
without the written consent of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable
Securities requesting such registration.

        8.4     Piggyback Registrations.

                (a)     Right to Piggyback. Whenever W&T proposes to register
any of its securities under the Securities Act (other than pursuant to a Demand
Registration, a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans on Form
S-8 or any other similar form for employee benefit plans, a registration on Form
S-3 or any similar form relating solely to a dividend reinvestment plan or a
registration relating solely to a Rule 145 transaction) and the registration
form to be used may be used for the registration and contemplated disposition of
Registrable Securities (a "Piggyback Registration"), W&T will give prompt
written notice to all Holders of Registrable Securities of its intention to
effect such a registration so that such notice is received by each Holder at
least 20 business days before the anticipated filing date. W&T will include in
such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which W&T has
received written requests for inclusion therein within ten business days after
the receipt of W&T's notice.

                                      -36-

<PAGE>

                (b)     Piggyback Expenses. The Registration Expenses of the
Holders of Registrable Securities will be paid by W&T.

                (c)     Priority on Primary Registrations. If a Piggyback
Registration is an underwritten primary registration on behalf of W&T, and the
managing underwriters advise W&T in writing that in their opinion the
distribution of the Registrable Securities to be included in the Piggyback
Registration concurrently with the securities being registered on behalf of W&T
would materially adversely affect the distribution of such securities by W&T,
W&T will include in such registration (i) first, the securities W&T proposes to
sell, (ii) second, the Registrable Securities, with each holder of Registrable
Securities desiring to register its Registrable Securities participating pro
rata in accordance with the total number of Registrable Securities requested by
such holder to be included in such registration and (iii) third, any other
securities requested to be included in such registration.

                (d)     Priority on Secondary Registrations. If a Piggyback
Registration is an underwritten secondary registration on behalf of holders of
W&T's securities, and the managing underwriters advise W&T in writing that in
their opinion the distribution of the Registrable Securities in such Piggyback
Registration concurrently with the securities being registered on behalf of
holders of W&T's securities would materially adversely affect the distribution
of such securities, W&T will include in such registration (i) first, the
securities requested to be included therein by the holders requesting such
registration, (ii) second, the Registrable Securities, with each holder of
Registrable Securities desiring to register its Registrable Securities
participating pro rata in accordance with the total number of Registrable
Securities requested by such holder to be included in such registration and
(iii) third, any other securities requested to be included in such registration.

                (e)     Other Restrictions. W&T hereby agrees that if it has
previously filed a registration statement with respect to Registrable Securities
pursuant to Section 8.3 or pursuant to this Section 8.4, and if such previous
registration has not been withdrawn or abandoned, W&T will not file or cause to
be effected any other registration of any of its equity securities or securities
convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for its equity securities under
the Securities Act (except on Form S-8 or any other similar form for employee
benefit plans or on Form S-3 or any similar form for a registration of shares to
be issued solely pursuant to a dividend reinvestment plan), whether on its own
behalf or at the request of any holder or holders of such securities, until (i)
six months has elapsed from the effective date of such previous registration or
(ii) sooner if all Registrable Securities included in such previous registration
have been sold.

        8.5     Holdback Agreements.

                (a)     Each Holder of Registrable Securities which is a party
to this Agreement agrees not to effect any sale or distribution of equity
securities of W&T, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or
exercisable for such securities, during the period commencing seven days prior
to and ending 90 days after the effective date of any underwritten Demand
Registration or any underwritten Piggyback Registration except for a Piggyback

                                      -37-

<PAGE>

Registration in connection with the IPO, in which case the period shall end 180
days after the effective date of the IPO (except as part of such underwritten
registration or with the consent of the managing underwriter), provided that the
executive officers and directors (or their equivalents) and each of the holders
of 5% or more of the then outstanding equity securities of W&T on a fully
diluted basis shall have entered into similar agreements. The commencement of
such period shall be determined in good faith by the managing underwriter and
advised to the Holders.

                (b)     W&T agrees (i) not to effect any sale or distribution of
its equity securities, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or
exercisable for such securities, during the period commencing seven days prior
to and ending 90 days after the effective date of any underwritten Demand
Registration or any underwritten Piggyback Registration (except (A) as part of
such underwritten registration, (B) with the consent of the managing underwriter
of such underwritten registration or (C) pursuant to registrations on Form S-8
or any other similar form for employee benefit plans or on Form S-3 or any other
similar form for the registration of securities to be issued solely pursuant to
a dividend reinvestment plan), and (ii) to use its reasonable best efforts to
cause each holder of its equity securities, or any securities convertible into
or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, purchased from W&T at any
time after the date of this Agreement (other than in a registered public
offering) to agree not to effect any public sale or distribution of any such
securities during such period (except as part of such underwritten registration,
if otherwise permitted, or with the consent of the managing underwriter). The
commencement of such period shall be determined in good faith by the managing
underwriter.

        8.6     Registration Procedures. Whenever the Holders of Registrable
Securities have requested that any Registrable Securities be registered pursuant
to this Article VIII, W&T will promptly take all such actions to effect the
registration and the sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the
intended method of disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto W&T will as
expeditiously as reasonably possible:

                (a)     prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement
with respect to such Registrable Securities, and use its best efforts to cause
such registration statement to become effective (provided that before filing a
registration statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto,
W&T will furnish to each of the Holders of Registrable Securities covered by
such registration and counsel selected by such Holders, copies of all such
documents proposed to be filed, which documents will be subject to their review
and approval);

                (b)     prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and
supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection
therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective for
the period set forth in Section 8.6(l) and comply with the provisions of the
Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities
covered by such registration statement during such period in accordance with the
intended methods of disposition by the Holders thereof set forth in such
registration statement;

                                      -38-

<PAGE>

                (c)     furnish to each Holder of Registrable Securities covered
by such registration such number of copies of such registration statement, each
amendment and supplement thereto, the prospectus included in such registration
statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and such other documents as
such Holder may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of
such Registrable Securities;

                (d)     use its best efforts to register or qualify Registrable
Securities covered by such registration under such other securities or blue sky
laws of such jurisdictions as any Holder reasonably requests and do any and all
other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable
the Holders thereof to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the
Registrable Securities as requested by such Holders (provided that W&T will not
be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it
would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this subsection, (ii) subject
itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (iii) consent to general service
of process in any such jurisdiction);

                (e)     notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by
such registration, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to
be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result
of which the prospectus included in such registration statement (or any document
incorporated therein by reference) contains an untrue statement of a material
fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and W&T will prepare a
supplement or amendment to such prospectus (or any document incorporated therein
by reference) immediately thereafter so that such prospectus (or any document
incorporated therein by reference) will not contain an untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;

                (f)     cause all such Registrable Securities covered by such
registration to be listed on each securities exchange or automated quotation
system on which similar securities issued by W&T are then listed or quoted;

                (g)     provide a transfer agent and registrar for all
Registrable Securities covered by such registration not later than the effective
date of such registration statement;

                (h)     enter into such customary agreements (including an
underwriting agreement) and take all such other actions as the Holders of a
majority of the Registrable Securities being sold or the underwriters, if any,
reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such
Registrable Securities;

                (i)     make available for inspection by any Holder of
Registrable Securities covered by such registration, any underwriter
participating in any disposition pursuant to such registration, and any
attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such Holder or underwriter,
all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of
W&T, and cause W&T's officers, directors and employees to supply all information
reasonably requested by any such Holder, underwriter, attorney, accountant or
agent in connection with such registration statement;

                                      -39-

<PAGE>

                (j)     obtain (i) a "comfort letter" from W&T's independent
public accountants in customary form and covering such matters of the type
customarily covered by comfort letters and (ii) opinions of counsel from W&T's
counsel in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily
covered in a public issuance of securities, in each case, in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Holders and any underwriters and addressed to the
Holders and any underwriters;

                (k)     otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all
applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, and make generally available to its
security holders, earnings statements satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a)
of the Securities Act, no later than 45 days after the end of any 12-month
period (i) commencing at the end of any fiscal quarter in which Registrable
Securities are sold and (ii) beginning with the first month of W&T's first
fiscal quarter commencing after the effective date of the registration
statement, which statements shall cover said 12-month periods; and

                (l)     keep each registration statement effective until the
Holders of Registrable Securities covered by such registration have completed
the distribution described in the registration statement relating thereto
(including a shelf registration) or until Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act
becomes available with respect to the Registrable Securities covered by such
registration.

        8.7     Indemnification.

                (a)     W&T will indemnify each Holder, each Holder's officers,
directors, managers, members and partners, and each person controlling such
Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations
thereunder), against all claims, losses, damages, liabilities (or actions in
respect thereof) and expenses arising out of or based on any untrue or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement,
prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any omission or alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein not misleading, or any violation by W&T of the Securities
Act or any rule or regulation thereunder applicable to W&T and relating to
action or inaction required of W&T in connection with any such registration,
qualification or compliance, and will reimburse each such Holder, such Holder's
officers, directors, managers, members and partners, and each person controlling
such Holder for any legal and any other expenses incurred in connection with
investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action;
provided, that W&T will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any
such claim, loss, damage, liability or action arises out of or is based on any
untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission of material
fact based upon written information furnished to W&T by such Holder and stated
to be specifically for use therein.

                (b)     Each Holder will, severally and not jointly, if
Registrable Securities held by it are included in the securities as to which
such registration is being effected, indemnify W&T, each of W&T's directors and
officers and each person who controls W&T (within the meaning of the Securities
Act and the rules and regulations thereunder), each other Holder whose

                                      -40-

<PAGE>

securities are included in such registration and each of such other Holder's
officers, directors, managers, members and partners and each person controlling
such other Holder, against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or
actions in respect thereof) and expenses arising out of or based on any untrue
or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any such
registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus, or any omission or
alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse
W&T, its officers and directors, each person controlling W&T, each other Holder,
and such other Holder's officers, directors, managers, members, partners and
control persons for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in
connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage,
liability or action, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that
such untrue statement or omission is made in such registration statement,
prospectus or preliminary prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information furnished to W&T by such Holder and stated to be
specifically for use therein.

                (c)     Each party entitled to indemnification under this
Section 8.7 (a "Section 8.7 Indemnified Party") shall give notice to the party
required to provide indemnification (a "Section 8.7 Indemnifying Party")
promptly after such Section 8.7 Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any
claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and, unless in such Section 8.7
Indemnified Party's reasonable judgment, a conflict of interest may exist
between such Section 8.7 Indemnified Party and such Section 8.7 Indemnifying
Party with respect to such claim, shall permit the Section 8.7 Indemnifying
Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting
therefrom; provided, that counsel for the Section 8.7 Indemnifying Party, who
shall conduct the defense of such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom,
shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Section 8.7 Indemnified Party, and the
Section 8.7 Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party's
expense; provided, further, that the failure of any Section 8.7 Indemnified
Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Section 8.7
Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article VIII, except to the
extent that the Section 8.7 Indemnifying Party's ability to conduct such defense
shall have been materially prejudiced by such failure. To the extent that, in
the written opinion of counsel to the Section 8.7 Indemnified Party, a conflict
of interest exists between a Section 8.7 Indemnified Party and the Section 8.7
Indemnifying Party, then such Section 8.7 Indemnified Party shall be entitled to
separate counsel at the expense of the Section 8.7 Indemnifying Party. Each
Section 8.7 Indemnified Party shall furnish such information regarding itself or
the claim in question as an Section 8.7 Indemnifying Party may reasonably
request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with the
defense of such claim and any litigation resulting therefrom.

                (d)     To the extent any indemnification by a Section 8.7
Indemnifying Party is prohibited or limited by law, the Section 8.7 Indemnifying
Party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for
which it would otherwise be liable under this Section 8.7 to the fullest extent
permitted by law; provided, however, that: (i) no person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act)
shall be entitled to contribution under this Section 8.7(d) from any person who
was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation; and (ii) contribution by any
Holder of Registrable Securities shall

                                      -41-

<PAGE>

be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds received by such Holder from
the sale of such Registrable Securities pursuant to a registration.

        8.8     Information by Holders. FS Private Investments III LLC, on
behalf of each Holder of Registrable Securities included in any registration,
shall furnish to W&T such information regarding such Holder and the distribution
proposed by such Holder as W&T may reasonably request in writing and as shall be
reasonably required in connection with any registration, qualification or
compliance referred to in this Article VIII. It is understood that in the case
of any such information with respect to a Holder other than one of the Initial
FS Stockholders, FS Private Investments III LLC shall merely transmit such
information without any responsibility for its accuracy or completeness.

        8.9     Limitations on Registration of Issues of Securities. From and
after the date of this Agreement, W&T shall not enter into any agreement with
any holder or prospective holder of any securities of W&T giving such holder or
prospective holder the right to require W&T to register any securities of W&T
equal to or more favorable than the rights granted under this Article VIII,
unless such action is consented to by Holders holding at least a majority of the
Registrable Securities. Any right given by W&T to any holder or prospective
holder of W&T's securities in connection with the registration of securities
shall be conditioned such that it shall be consistent with the provisions of
this Article VIII and with the rights of the Holders provided in this Agreement
and such holder or prospective holder agrees to be bound by the terms of this
Article VIII.

        8.10    Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits
of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may permit the sale of the
Restricted Securities to the public without registration, W&T agrees to:

                (a)     make and keep public information available as those
terms are understood and defined and interpreted in and under Rule 144 under the
Securities Act, at all times from and after 90 days following the effective date
of the IPO;

                (b)     use its best efforts to file with the SEC in a timely
manner all reports and other documents required of W&T under the Securities Act
and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), at any
time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements; and

                (c)     so long as the Holders own any Restricted Securities,
furnish to such Holders forthwith upon request a written statement by W&T as to
its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 (at any time from and
after 180 days following the effective date of the IPO) and of the Securities
Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such
reporting requirements), a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of
W&T, and such other reports and documents so filed as such Holder may reasonably
request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing such
Holder to sell any such securities without registration.

                                      -42-

<PAGE>

        8.11    Selection of Underwriters. If any Demand Registration is an
underwritten offering, the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities
included in such registration shall have the right to select the investment
banker(s) and manager(s) to administer the offering, subject to the approval of
W&T (which approval will not be unreasonably withheld).

                                   ARTICLE IX

                                   TERMINATION

        9.1     Termination of Agreement. Anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, this Agreement shall terminate if the Closing does not occur on
or before the close of business on January 31, 2003 (the "Termination Date"),
unless extended by mutual written consent of the parties hereto and otherwise
may be terminated at any time before the Closing as follows:

                (a)     by mutual consent in writing of all of the parties
hereto; or

                (b)     by the Purchasers or W&T if there has been a material
representation or other material breach by the other party in its
representations, warranties, or covenants set forth herein; provided, however,
that if such breach is susceptible to cure, the breaching party shall have ten
calendar days after receipt of notice from the other party of its intention to
terminate this Agreement if such breach continues in order to cure such breach.

        9.2     Effect of Termination. If this Agreement shall be terminated
pursuant to Section 9.1, then all further obligations of the parties under this
Agreement shall terminate without any further liability of any party to another;
provided that the obligations of the parties contained in Section 12.10 shall
survive any such termination. A termination under Section 9.1 shall not relieve
any party of any liability for breach of, or for any misrepresentation under
this Agreement, or be deemed to constitute a waiver of any available remedy for
any such breach or misrepresentation.

                                    ARTICLE X

                              AMENDMENT AND WAIVER

        This Agreement may not be amended or modified (or any provision hereof
waived), except that W&T and the Purchasers (and assignees of the Purchasers)
holding at least a majority of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Conversion
Shares purchased or to be purchased hereunder may by written instrument amend or
waive any term or condition of this Agreement relating to the rights or
obligations of such holders, but in no event shall the obligation of any holder
of Series A Preferred Stock or Conversion Shares hereunder be increased, except
upon the written consent of each such holder; provided, however, that the
provisions of Article VIII hereof may only be amended with the consent of the
holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities.

        W&T and each holder of Series A Preferred Stock and Conversion Shares
shall be bound by any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with the
provisions of this Article X, whether or not such Series A Preferred Stock or
Conversion Shares shall have been marked to

                                      -43-

<PAGE>

indicate such modification, but any Series A Preferred Stock or Conversion
Shares issued thereafter shall bear a notation as to any such modification.
Promptly after obtaining the written consent of the holders herein provided, W&T

                                   ARTICLE XI

                         LOST OR MUTILATED CERTIFICATES

        Upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to W&T of the loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of any certificate representing Series A Preferred
Stock, and, in the case of any such loss, theft, or destruction, upon delivery
of a bond of indemnity satisfactory to W&T (provided that if the holder is a
financial institution, its own agreement will be satisfactory), or in the case
of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such certificate, W&T
will issue a new certificate of like tenor as if the lost, stolen, destroyed or
mutilated certificate were then surrendered for exchange in lieu of such lost,
stolen, destroyed or mutilated certificate.

                                   ARTICLE XII

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

        12.1    Effectiveness. This Agreement shall not be binding upon the
parties hereto until, and shall only become effective upon and contemporaneously
with, the approval by the Board of Directors of W&T of the transactions
contemplated hereby.

        12.2    Governing Law. This Agreement and the rights of the parties
hereunder shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of
Delaware, without giving effect to the provisions thereof relating to conflicts
of law. W&T agrees that it will not assert against any partner of the Purchasers
(or against any partner, officer, director, employee or agent of the Purchasers
or any of their affiliates) any claim it may have under this Agreement by reason
of any failure or alleged failure by a Purchaser to meet its obligations
hereunder. FS Private Investments III LLC agrees to indemnify W&T and hold
harmless W&T, and any director, officer or equity holder of W&T against any
claim made or threatened to be made against any such person by any beneficial
owner of any interest in any Purchaser if such claim relates to any alleged
untrue statement of a material fact in the information provided to such person
by a Purchaser or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to
be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading
with respect to an investment in the Series A Preferred Stock.

        12.3    Survival. The representations, warranties, covenants and
agreements made herein shall survive (i) any investigation made by the
Purchasers and (ii) the Closing for the two-year period immediately following
the Closing Time, except that (A) the representations contained in Sections
3.1(a), 3.1(b), 3.1(c), 3.1(d), and 3.1(z) shall survive indefinitely and (B)
the representations in Section 3.1(h) shall survive until the applicable statute
of limitations (including all waivers or extensions thereof) has expired with
respect to each matter addressed therein; and provided that any claims made or
asserted by a party within the applicable time

                                      -44-

<PAGE>

period prescribed above shall survive until such claim is finally resolved and
all obligations with respect thereto are fully satisfied.

        12.4    Public Announcements. W&T shall consult with, and obtain the
prior written consent of, FS Private Investments III LLC before issuing any
press release or otherwise making any public comment, statement or communication
with respect to, or otherwise disclose or permit the disclosure of the existence
of discussions regarding, a possible transaction among the parties or any of the
terms, condition or other aspects of the transaction contemplated by this
Agreement, and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public
comment, statement or communication prior to such consultation, except to the
extent required by applicable law.

        12.5    Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise expressly provided
herein, the provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon
and enforceable by and against, the successors, permitted assigns, heirs,
executors and administrators of the parties hereto. Neither W&T nor its existing
stockholders may assign any of their rights or obligations under this Agreement
without the prior written consent of the Purchasers holding a majority of the
Series A Preferred Stock purchased or to be purchased hereunder. The Purchasers
may assign to Other Investors all or any part of their rights and obligations
hereunder to purchase not more than 40% in the aggregate of the Series A
Preferred Stock purchased or to be purchased hereunder, but only during the
180-day period immediately following the Closing Time, and provided that, as a
condition to any such transfer, the transferor will obtain representations from
the transferee comparable to those in Section 4.1, which representations shall
state explicitly that such representations are for the benefit of W&T. An Other
Investor to whom all or a part of the Purchasers' rights are assigned shall
become a party to this Agreement, entitled to all the rights and benefits
hereunder. The rights and powers of the Purchasers hereunder are granted to the
Purchasers as owners of the Series A Preferred Stock and Conversion Shares
purchased or to be purchased hereunder. Any subsequent owner of any Series A
Preferred Stock or Conversion Shares purchased or to be purchased hereunder
during the 180-day period following the Closing Time, whether becoming such by
transfer, assignment, operation of law or otherwise, shall be deemed to be a
Purchaser hereunder, shall have the same rights and powers which a Purchaser
owning such securities has hereunder, and shall be entitled to exercise them in
full. Each Holder shall have the rights and powers set forth in Article VIII
hereof and in the Stockholders' Agreement.

        12.6    Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the Schedules and
Exhibits hereto) and the other documents delivered pursuant hereto constitute
the full and entire understanding and agreement between the parties with regard
to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

        12.7    Notices, etc. All notices, demands or other communications given
hereunder shall be in writing and shall be sufficiently given if delivered
either personally or by a United States nationally recognized courier service
marked for next business day delivery or sent by facsimile or in a sealed

        12.8    Delays or Omissions. No delay or omission to exercise any right,
power or remedy accruing to any holder of any Series A Preferred Stock or
Conversion Shares upon any breach or default of W&T under this Agreement shall
impair any such right, power or remedy of such holder nor shall it be construed
to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence, therein, or of
or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver
of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or
default theretofore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent or
approval of any kind or character on the part of any holder of any breach or
default under this Agreement, or any waiver on the part of any holder of any
provisions or conditions of this Agreement must be, made in writing and shall be
effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing. All
remedies, either under this Agreement or by law or otherwise afforded to any
holder, shall be cumulative and not alternative.

        12.9    Severability. In case any provision of this Agreement shall be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of
the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

fees and expenses) incurred by the winning party.

                (c)     Except as set forth in clause (a) above, in the event of
any disputes between the parties hereto not involving third parties, the parties
hereto agree that any action or proceeding arising directly, indirectly or
otherwise in connection with, out of, related to or from this Agreement, any
breach hereof or any transaction covered hereby, shall be resolved within the
County of New Castle, City of Wilmington and State of Delaware. Accordingly, the
parties consent and submit to the jurisdiction of the federal and state courts

        12.14   Direct Purchase. If W&T should redeem all the shares of W&T
Common Stock owned by the Bethea Group and issue the Series A Preferred Stock to
the Purchasers for cash, then the parties shall, in good faith, negotiate
