 <P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=1>To
the shareholders of Dawson Geophysical Company and TGC Industries,&nbsp;Inc.: </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=1>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
October&nbsp;8, 2014, Dawson Geophysical Company, or Dawson, and TGC Industries,&nbsp;Inc., or TGC, announced our proposed strategic business combination. The boards of directors
of Dawson and TGC have each approved an agreement and plan of merger, a copy of which is attached as Annex&nbsp;A to this joint proxy statement/prospectus, as such agreement may be amended from time
to time, or the merger agreement, pursuant to which Riptide Acquisition Corp., or Merger Sub, a newly formed wholly owned subsidiary of TGC, will be merged with and into Dawson, with Dawson surviving
the merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of TGC, or the merger. Immediately prior to the merger, TGC will change its name to "Dawson Geophysical Company" and Dawson will change its name to
"Dawson Operating Company." </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=1>


&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This joint proxy statement/prospectus describes the terms of the merger agreement and the merger, including the reasons the merger was proposed, the negotiation process that led to
entry into the merger agreement and other background information. We are sending you this joint proxy statement/prospectus and related materials in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the
boards of directors of Dawson and TGC for use at their special meetings of shareholders, both to be held on February&nbsp;9, 2015. At the special meetings, among other items, the shareholders of
Dawson and TGC will be asked to approve certain proposals that are required to effect the merger. These proposals are discussed in greater detail in the remainder of this joint proxy
statement/prospectus. We urge you to read carefully this joint proxy statement/prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference into it.

 </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=1>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Immediately
prior (and as a condition precedent) to completion of the merger, TGC will undertake a reverse stock split with respect to the TGC common stock on a 1-for-3 ratio. If the
proposed merger is completed, then pursuant to the merger agreement, each holder of shares of Dawson common stock will be entitled to receive 1.760 shares of TGC common stock for each share of Dawson
common stock owned, after giving effect to the proposed reverse stock split, as well as cash payable in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=1>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
anticipate that, immediately following completion of the merger (and after giving effect to the proposed reverse stock split), current Dawson shareholders will own approximately 66%
of the outstanding shares of TGC common stock and TGC shareholders will own approximately 34% of the outstanding shares of TGC common stock. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=1>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC
shareholders will continue to own their existing shares of TGC common stock, however, the number of shares they hold will be adjusted downward pursuant to the proposed reverse stock
split. Following the reverse stock split, registered holders of TGC common stock who hold stock certificates or shares in book-entry form will be sent a letter of transmittal from TGC's transfer agent
that contains instructions for surrendering pre-reverse stock split shares to the transfer agent in exchange for the appropriate number of post-reverse stock split shares in book-entry form (or
certificated form if requested). Dawson's common stock is currently listed on NASDAQ under the symbol "DWSN." TGC's common stock is currently listed on NASDAQ under the symbol "TGE" and, following the
merger and the change of TGC's name to "Dawson Geophysical Company," is expected to be listed on NASDAQ under the symbol "DWSN." </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=1>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Dawson
is holding a special meeting of its shareholders to approve (i)&nbsp;the merger agreement, or the merger proposal, (ii)&nbsp;an amendment to Dawson's second restated articles
of incorporation to change Dawson's name to "Dawson Operating Company" immediately prior to the merger, or the Dawson name change proposal, (iii)&nbsp;a non-binding advisory resolution on certain
compensation that may be paid or become payable to Dawson's named executive officers upon consummation of the merger, or the advisory resolution proposal and (iv)&nbsp;adjournments of the special
meeting, if necessary or appropriate, to permit the solicitation of additional proxies if there are not sufficient votes at the time of the special meeting to adopt the foregoing proposals, or the
Dawson adjournment proposal. Certain executive officers and directors of Dawson who beneficially own, in the aggregate, approximately 2.39% of the currently outstanding shares of Dawson common stock
have entered into a voting agreement with TGC. Pursuant to and subject to the terms of the voting agreement, those directors and executive officers have agreed, among other things, to vote their
shares of Dawson common stock in favor of the merger proposal. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=1>


&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC is holding a special meeting of its shareholders to approve (i)&nbsp;the issuance of shares of TGC common stock in connection with the proposed merger, or the share issuance
proposal, (ii)&nbsp;an amendment to TGC's amended and restated certificate of formation to effectuate a 1-for-3 reverse stock split with respect to TGC common stock to take effect immediately prior
to the merger, or the reverse stock split proposal, (iii)&nbsp;an amendment to TGC's amended and restated certificate of formation to change TGC's name to "Dawson Geophysical Company" immediately
prior to the merger, or the TGC name change proposal, and (iv)&nbsp;adjournments of the special meeting, if necessary or appropriate, to permit the solicitation of additional proxies if there are
not sufficient votes at the time of the special meeting to adopt the foregoing proposals, or the TGC adjournment proposal. Certain executive officers and directors of TGC and their affiliates who
beneficially own, in the aggregate, approximately 28.84% of the shares of TGC common stock, or 27.60% of the shares of TGC common stock currently outstanding and entitled to vote as of
December&nbsp;29, 2014, have entered into voting agreements with Dawson. Pursuant to and subject to the terms of those voting agreements, those directors and executive officers and their affiliates
have agreed, among other things, to vote their shares of TGC common stock in favor of the share issuance proposal, the reverse stock split proposal, the TGC name change proposal and the TGC
adjournment proposal, each in connection with the proposed merger, at the TGC special meeting.

 </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=1>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
obligations of Dawson and TGC to complete the merger are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of several conditions. We cannot complete the merger unless, among other
things:</FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>The following are brief answers to common questions that you may have regarding the proposals being considered
at the special meeting of Dawson shareholders, which we refer to as the Dawson special meeting, and the special meeting of TGC shareholders, which we refer to as the TGC special meeting. Dawson and
TGC urge you to read carefully this entire joint proxy statement/prospectus because the information in this section may not provide all the information that might be important to you in determining
how to vote. Additional important information is also contained in the annexes to, and the documents incorporated by reference in, this joint proxy statement/prospectus. See "Where You Can Find More
Information" beginning on page 225.</I></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
this joint proxy statement/prospectus, unless the context otherwise requires, "TGC" refers to TGC Industries,&nbsp;Inc., a Texas corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries,
"Merger Sub" refers to Riptide Acquisition Corp., a Texas corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of TGC, "Dawson" refers to Dawson Geophysical Company, a Texas corporation, and its consolidated
subsidiaries, the "merger agreement" refers to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated October&nbsp;8, 2014, by and among Dawson, Merger Sub and TGC, as it may be amended from time to time, and the
"merger" refers to the merger of Merger Sub with and into Dawson, as contemplated by the merger agreement. A copy of
the merger agreement is attached as Annex&nbsp;A to this joint proxy statement/prospectus.  </FONT></P>

<BR><BR></FONT></DD>

<DT style='font-family:times;margin-bottom:-11pt;'><FONT SIZE=2>A:</FONT></DT><DD style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>You
are receiving this joint proxy statement/prospectus because you are a shareholder of record of either Dawson or TGC as of December&nbsp;29, 2014, the
record date for the special meetings.

 </FONT>
<BR>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>TGC
and Dawson have agreed to combine their businesses by means of a merger of Merger Sub with and into Dawson, with Dawson surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of TGC. Immediately prior
to the merger, TGC has agreed to effect a name change to be named "Dawson Geophysical Company" and Dawson has agreed to effect a name change to be named "Dawson Operating Company." </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>In
order to complete the merger, among other conditions, TGC shareholders must vote to approve (i)&nbsp;the share issuance proposal, (ii)&nbsp;the reverse stock split proposal and (iii)&nbsp;the
TGC name change proposal. In addition, Dawson shareholders must vote to approve the merger proposal and the Dawson name change proposal. Dawson and TGC will hold separate special meetings to obtain
these approvals.  </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>At
the Dawson special meeting, Dawson shareholders will also be voting on a non-binding advisory resolution on certain compensation that may be paid or become payable to Dawson's named executive
officers upon consummation of the merger. However, approval by Dawson shareholders of such compensation is not a condition to the merger. Accordingly, even if Dawson shareholders do not approve such
compensation, if all closing conditions to the merger are satisfied, Dawson and TGC will be obligated to close the merger, and such compensation will be paid or become payable to Dawson's named
executive officers.  </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>This
joint proxy statement/prospectus, which you should read carefully, contains important information about the merger, the merger agreement and the special meetings of Dawson and TGC shareholders.
Dawson and TGC are each delivering this document to their shareholders because it is a proxy statement being used by the board of directors of both Dawson and TGC to solicit proxies of shareholders in
connection with their respective special meetings. In addition, this document is a prospectus being delivered to Dawson shareholders because TGC is offering shares of its common stock to Dawson
shareholders in exchange for their shares of Dawson common stock in connection with the proposed merger. </FONT></P>

calculated assuming the effectiveness of a 1-for-3 reverse stock split with respect to TGC common stock immediately prior to the merger.  </FONT>

will effect a 1-for-3 reverse stock split with respect to the TGC common stock immediately prior to the merger, thereby reducing the total number of outstanding shares of TGC common stock to
approximately 7.3&nbsp;million shares. To the extent that the reverse stock split would result in any TGC shareholders otherwise owning a fractional share of TGC common stock, such share will be
rounded up to the nearest whole share. For instance, a registered holder of 1,000 shares of TGC common stock
would own 334 shares of TGC common stock after giving effect to the proposed reverse stock split. The reverse stock split will affect all TGC shareholders uniformly and will not change any TGC
shareholder's percentage ownership interest in TGC, except to the extent that the reverse stock split would result in the rounding up of fractional shares.  </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In deciding to approve the merger agreement and recommend the issuance of shares of TGC common stock pursuant to the merger agreement,

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The merger is conditioned upon TGC effecting a 1-for-3 reverse stock split with respect to the TGC common stock immediately prior to
the merger, thereby reducing the total number of outstanding shares of TGC common stock to approximately 7.3&nbsp;million shares. We anticipate that upon completion of the merger and after giving
effect to the 1-for-3 reverse stock split, TGC will have approximately 21.6&nbsp;million shares of common stock outstanding, with current Dawson and TGC shareholders owning approximately 66% and 34%
of the combined company, respectively. TGC will also change its name to "Dawson Geophysical Company" immediately prior to the merger. </FONT></P>

Wayne&nbsp;A. Whitener, Allen&nbsp;T. McInnes, Ph.D. and William Barrett will continue to serve as directors of TGC after the merger and the other current directors of TGC will resign from the TGC
board of directors. Accordingly, in order to accommodate the additional directors, at the effective time of the merger, the TGC board of directors will increase in size to 8 directors. Pursuant to the
merger agreement, the combined company will take all necessary action to cause each of the 8 directors noted above to be nominated for continuing election to the board of directors for three years
following the effective time of the merger, other than Mr.&nbsp;Barrett, who will be nominated to the board of directors for one year following the effective time of the merger and

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On December&nbsp;15, 2014, Dawson filed with the SEC its Annual Report on Form&nbsp;10-K for the fiscal year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2014. The following is a summary of Dawson's results for the fiscal year ended September&nbsp;30, 2014 and 2013. This summary is not intended to be a comprehensive statement of
Dawson's results for this period. Full financial results are included in Dawson's Annual Report on Form&nbsp;10-K for the fiscal year ended September&nbsp;30, 2014. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Dawson's
operating revenues decreased 14% to $261,683,000 in fiscal 2014 from $305,299,000 in fiscal 2013. The revenue decrease in fiscal 2014 was primarily the result of a reduction in
crew utilization. Third-party charges, for which we are reimbursed by clients, decreased slightly in fiscal 2014 compared to fiscal 2013. </FONT></P>

 <P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Dawson's
operating expenses decreased 5% to $223,336,000 in fiscal 2014 from $234,660,000 in fiscal 2013 primarily due to the slight decrease in reimbursed third-party charges. The
decrease can be attributed to a reduction in survey related charges. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During
fiscal 2013, Dawson mostly operated fourteen data acquisition crews, except in the last fiscal quarter of 2013 when demand only supported eight data acquisition crews. During
fiscal 2014, Dawson operated eight to twelve data acquisition crews. Despite the reduction in crew count and channel count deployment, Dawson maintained a balanced order book in terms of the client
mix and geographical diversity with the majority of the projects in oil and liquids-rich basins. The majority of Dawson's crews are currently working in oil producing basins. However, in recent years,
Dawson has experienced periods in which the services provided were primarily to clients seeking natural gas. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During
2012, Dawson entered into the Canadian market. This market is highly seasonal and operates primarily from late November through March, depending upon weather conditions. Demand in
Canada was softer than anticipated for the second consecutive winter season. During fiscal 2014, Canadian operations had a significantly negative effect on our fiscal 2014 financial results. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For
fiscal year 2014, Dawson made capital expenditures, on an accrual basis, of $34,073,000, primarily to purchase 9,000 three-channel Geospace Technologies GSX units, 10,000
three-channel geophones and vehicles to improve its fleet and to meet necessary maintenance capital requirements. Dawson's Board of Directors has approved an initial fiscal 2015 capital budget of
$10,000,000 for maintenance capital requirements. Historically, Dawson has primarily relied on cash generated from operations, cash reserves and borrowings from commercial banks to fund its working
capital requirements and, to some extent, its capital expenditures. Recently, Dawson has funded some of its capital expenditures through equipment term loans and capital leases. Dawson has also funded
its capital expenditures and other financing needs from time to time through public equity offerings. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
financial information set forth in this "Dawson Developments" section regarding EBITDA (defined as earnings before interest expense, income taxes and depreciation and amortization
expense) may be derived from methods that are not considered generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP. Dawson provided this information because Dawson believes it could
be useful in evaluating Dawson's operating performance. EBITDA should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in compliance with GAAP, and EBITDA
as used by Dawson may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts used by other companies. The below table reconciles Dawson's EBITDA for the fiscal years ended September&nbsp;30, 2014 and 2013 to
Dawson's net income (loss) during the same period. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On November&nbsp;10, 2014, TGC filed with the SEC its Quarterly Report on Form&nbsp;10-Q for the quarter ended September&nbsp;30,
2014. The following is a summary of TGC's unaudited results for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2014 and 2013. This summary is not intended to be a comprehensive statement of TGC's
unaudited financial results for these periods. For additional information, see "Information About TGC&#151;Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations," beginning on page&nbsp;167. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC's
revenues were $93.1&nbsp;million for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2014, compared to $115.8&nbsp;million for the same period of 2013, a decrease of 19.6%. TGC's
cost of services was $76.6&nbsp;million for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2014, compared to $90.0&nbsp;million for the same
period of 2013, a decrease of 14.9%. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $7.1&nbsp;million for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2014, compared to $7.2&nbsp;million for the
same period of 2013, a decrease of 2.3%, or approximately $165,000. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Net
loss in the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2014 increased to $3.8&nbsp;million from $1.6&nbsp;million in the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2013. Income tax
benefit was $2.0&nbsp;million for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2014, compared to income tax expense of $0.2&nbsp;million for the same period of 2013. The income tax benefit for the
nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2014, at a rate of 34.2%, was due primarily to our loss before income taxes, compared to the income tax expense for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30,
2013, which was primarily due to permanent tax differences. EBITDA (a non-GAAP number) was $9.4&nbsp;million for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2014 compared to $18.6&nbsp;million in
the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2013. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During
the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2014, TGC acquired $7.5&nbsp;million of vehicles and equipment including the purchase in September 2014 of a 10,500-channel INOVA Hawk
seismic data acquisition system and to add to and replace similar vehicles and equipment. TGC financed these acquisitions by issuing a $6.1&nbsp;million note to a commercial bank to finance the
INOVA Hawk system mentioned above, using $1.3&nbsp;million of cash on hand and by incurring $0.2&nbsp;million in capital lease obligations from a vehicle leasing company. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
financial information set forth in this "TGC Developments" section regarding EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. TGC uses EBITDA as a supplemental financial measure to
assess:</FONT></P>

</UL>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC
also understands that such data is used by investors to assess TGC's performance. However, EBITDA is not a measure of operating income, operating performance, or liquidity presented
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. When assessing TGC's operating performance or our liquidity, you should not consider this data in isolation or as a substitute for net
income, cash flow from operating activities, or other cash flow data calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect net
income and operating income, and these measures may vary among other companies. Therefore, EBITDA as presented below may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Further, the
results presented by EBITDA cannot be achieved without incurring the costs that the measure excludes: interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. The table below reconciles
TGC's EBITDA for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2014 and 2013 to TGC's net loss during the same periods. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The following selected unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information is based on the historical
consolidated financial information of Dawson and the historical consolidated financial information of TGC appearing elsewhere in this joint proxy statement/prospectus and has been prepared to reflect
the proposed merger of Merger Sub with and into Dawson. The data in the selected unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated balance sheet as of September&nbsp;30, 2014 assume the proposed
merger of Merger Sub with and into Dawson was completed on that date. The data in the selected unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2014 assume the proposed merger was completed October&nbsp;1, 2013, the first day of Dawson's 2014 fiscal year. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Dawson's
audited statement of operations for the fiscal year ended September&nbsp;30, 2014 has been combined with TGC's historical consolidated statement of operations for the fourth
quarter ended December&nbsp;31, 2013 and the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2014, and gives effect to the merger as if it had been completed on October&nbsp;1, 2013, the first day of
Dawson's 2014 fiscal year. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
selected unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and related notes thereto of
Dawson, which are incorporated by reference from Dawson's Annual Report on Form&nbsp;10-K for the fiscal year ended September&nbsp;30, 2014, and TGC, which begin on page&nbsp;F-1 of this joint
proxy statement/prospectus, and other information included in or incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus. See "Where You Can Find More Information" beginning on
page&nbsp;225. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
selected unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information has been prepared for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the financial
position or results of operations of Dawson had (1)&nbsp;the proposed merger of Merger Sub with and into Dawson occurred on September&nbsp;30, 2014 and/or (2)&nbsp;the proposed merger of Merger
Sub with and into Dawson occurred on October&nbsp;1, 2013. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
historical financial information has been adjusted in the selected unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information to give effect to pro forma events that
are (1)&nbsp;directly attributable to the merger, (2)&nbsp;factually supportable, and (3)&nbsp;with respect to the statement of income or the statement of operations, expected to have a
continuing impact on the combined results of Dawson and TGC. All pro forma financial information uses Dawson's period-end dates and no adjustments were made to TGC's information for its different
period-end dates. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Although
TGC is the legal acquirer and is expected to issue 14,255,220 shares of its common stock to effect the merger with Dawson, the business combination will be accounted for as a
reverse acquisition with Dawson considered the accounting acquirer. As a result, the fair value of TGC's common stock issued and outstanding as of the date of the merger will be allocated to the
underlying tangible and intangible assets and liabilities of TGC based on their respective fair values. The selected unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information was
prepared in accordance with the regulations of the SEC. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>


&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The purchase price will be determined on the basis of the fair value of common shares of TGC on the date the transaction is consummated plus the fair value of any other consideration
transferred. The estimated purchase price for this selected unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information was based on 7,332,336 TGC shares of common stock to be
outstanding after the 1-for-3 reverse stock split prior to the consummation of the merger and the closing price of TGC common stock as of December&nbsp;29, 2014. The estimated purchase price does
not include an estimate of cash payable to Dawson shareholders in lieu of fractional shares which is required pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, as information is not readily available to
estimate such amount. Dawson anticipates that the amount of any such cash payment will be immaterial. At this time, Dawson

not performed detailed valuation analyses to determine the fair values of TGC's assets and liabilities, and accordingly, the selected unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial
information includes a preliminary allocation of the purchase price based on assumptions and estimates which, while considered reasonable under the circumstances, are subject to changes, and such
changes may be material. Additionally, Dawson has not yet performed the necessary analysis to identify
all of the adjustments that may be required to conform TGC's accounting policies to Dawson's or to identify other items that could significantly impact the purchase price allocation or the assumptions
and adjustments made in preparation of this selected unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information. Upon completion of detailed valuation analyses, there may be additional
increases or decreases to the recorded book values of TGC's assets and liabilities, including, but not limited to, property, plant and equipment and intangible assets that will give rise to future
amounts of depreciation and amortization expenses or credits that are not reflected in the information contained in this selected unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial
information. In addition, the estimated purchase price itself is preliminary and will be adjusted based upon the price per share of TGC common stock on the date the merger is completed and the number
of shares of TGC common stock outstanding on the same date. Accordingly, once the necessary procedures have been performed, the final purchase price has been determined and the purchase price
allocation has been completed, actual results may differ materially from the information presented in this selected unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Additionally,
TGC expects to incur costs associated with integrating the operations of Dawson and TGC. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information does
not reflect the cost of any integration activities or benefits from the merger that may be derived from any integration activities, both of which could have a material effect on the results of
operations in periods following the completion of the merger. In addition, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information does not include costs directly attributable to
the transaction, employee retention costs or professional fees incurred by Dawson or TGC pursuant to provisions contained in the merger agreement, as those costs are not considered part of the
purchase price. </FONT></P>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The closing price of TGC common stock on NASDAQ on October&nbsp;8, 2014, the last full trading day prior to the public announcement of the merger, was $3.34. The closing price of TGC
common stock on NASDAQ on December&nbsp;29, 2014, the last practicable full trading day prior to the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, was $2.26.

 </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
December&nbsp;27, 2012, TGC paid its first cash dividend of $0.15 per common share to shareholders of record at the close of business on December&nbsp;17, 2012. TGC did not pay a
cash dividend in 2013. On May&nbsp;14, 2013 and on May&nbsp;14, 2012 TGC paid 5% stock dividends to shareholders of record at the close of business on April&nbsp;30, 2013 and April&nbsp;30,
2012, respectively. No cash or stock dividends were declared or paid in 2014. All prior share and per share amounts have been restated to reflect the stock dividends. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
the event the merger is not consummated, payment of any cash dividends in the future, however, will be in the discretion of TGC's board of directors and will depend on TGC's financial
condition, results of operations, capital and legal requirements, and other factors deemed relevant by TGC's board of directors. Earnings, if any, are expected to be retained to fund TGC's future
operations. </FONT></P>

<FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The following table sets forth the closing common stock price per share of Dawson and TGC on October&nbsp;8, 2014, the last full
trading day before the public announcement of the proposed merger and on December&nbsp;29, 2014, the last practicable full trading day prior to the date of this joint proxy statement. The table also
presents the implied value of one share of Dawson common stock at each applicable date, which was calculated by multiplying the closing price of TGC common stock on such date by the post-reverse stock
split exchange ratio of 1.760 and multiplying the product by 3, the number of shares that will equal each outstanding share of TGC common stock following the reverse stock split.

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The following tables set forth for the periods presented certain per share data separately for Dawson and TGC on a historical basis and
on an unaudited pro forma combined basis per share of TGC common stock reflecting the combined company. The following unaudited pro forma combined per share information should be read in conjunction
with the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information, including the notes thereto, beginning on page&nbsp;212, the historical consolidated financial statements and
related notes thereto of Dawson, which are incorporated by reference from Dawson's Annual Report on Form&nbsp;10-K for the fiscal year ended September&nbsp;30, 2014, and TGC, which begin on
page&nbsp;F-1 of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, and other information included in or incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus. See "Information About TGC"
beginning on page&nbsp;162 and "Where You Can Find More Information" beginning on page&nbsp;225. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
unaudited pro forma combined data per share of TGC has been calculated on the basis of the unaudited pro forma combined per share TGC common stock amounts and after giving pro forma
effect to the 1-for-3 reverse stock split of TGC common stock, multiplied by the exchange ratio of 1.760. The exchange ratio represents the number of shares of TGC common stock that each Dawson
shareholder would receive upon completion of the merger. These amounts are not intended to reflect future per share levels of income from continuing operations and book value of TGC following
consummation of the merger. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
unaudited pro forma combined per share information is based on the historical financial statements of Dawson and TGC and on publicly available information and certain assumptions and
adjustments as discussed in "Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Consolidated Financial Information" beginning on page&nbsp;212, including assumptions relating to the allocation of the
consideration paid for the assets and liabilities of Dawson based on preliminary estimates of their fair value. This unaudited pro forma combined per share information is provided for illustrative
purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of what the operating results or financial position of Dawson or TGC would have been had the merger and related transactions been completed at the
beginning of the periods or on the dates indicated, nor is it necessarily indicative of any future operating results or financial position. Dawson and TGC may have performed differently had they been
combined during the periods presented. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> The date that Dawson shareholders will receive the merger consideration is uncertain.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The date that Dawson shareholders will receive the merger consideration depends on the completion date of the merger, which is
uncertain. In no event will the merger be completed later than May&nbsp;31, 2015 unless Dawson and TGC otherwise agree. The date that the merger becomes effective may be later than the date of the
special meetings, at the time of the Dawson special
meeting, Dawson shareholders will not know the exact market value of the TGC common stock that they will receive upon completion of the merger. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> Because the market price of TGC common stock will fluctuate, Dawson shareholders cannot be sure of the aggregate value of the merger consideration they will receive.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The number of shares of TGC common stock to be issued in the merger for each share of Dawson common stock is fixed (except in the event
of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar transaction or event with respect to Dawson common stock or TGC common stock
(other than the 1-for-3 TGC reverse stock split occurring immediately prior to the merger)) and will not be adjusted for changes in the market price of either Dawson common stock or TGC common stock.
Accordingly, any change in the price of TGC common stock prior to the merger will affect the market value of the merger consideration that Dawson shareholders will receive as a result of the merger. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
dollar value of the consideration received by Dawson shareholders receiving consideration of TGC common stock will depend upon the market value of TGC common stock at the effective
time of the merger, and such dollar value may be different from, and lower than, the dollar value of the merger consideration today. Moreover, the price of TGC common stock as of the effective time of
the merger will likely vary from the market price of TGC common stock on the date the merger agreement was announced, on the date that this joint proxy statement/prospectus is mailed to Dawson
shareholders, on the date of the special meetings and after the closing of the merger. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> Whether or not the merger is completed, the announcement and pendency of the merger could cause disruptions in the businesses of Dawson and TGC, which could have an adverse
effect on each of their respective businesses, financial results and stock prices.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Whether or not the merger is completed, the announcement and pendency of the merger could cause disruptions in the businesses of Dawson
and TGC. Dawson and TGC have each diverted significant management resources in an effort to complete the merger and are each subject to restrictions contained in the merger agreement on the conduct of
each of their respective businesses, all of which could result in an adverse effect on each of Dawson's and TGC's respective businesses, financial results and stock prices. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> TGC and Dawson may have difficulty attracting, motivating and retaining employees in light of the merger, and the anticipated benefits of the merger could be reduced.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Uncertainty about the effect of the merger on TGC's and Dawson's employees may have an adverse effect on TGC and the anticipated
benefits of the merger. While it is a condition to the merger that certain officers of TGC and Dawson enter into employment agreements with TGC, the uncertainty involving the merger may impair TGC's
and Dawson's abilities to attract, retain and motivate other key personnel until the merger is completed. Employee retention may be particularly challenging during the pendency of the merger, as
employees may experience uncertainty about their future roles with TGC. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
success of the merger will depend in part on the retention of personnel necessary to the business and operations of TGC. If TGC and Dawson are unable to retain key personnel, TGC
could face disruptions in its operations, loss of existing clients and loss of expertise or know-how. </FONT></P>

$2.0&nbsp;million if it does.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The merger agreement contains non-solicitation provisions that, subject to limited fiduciary exceptions, restrict Dawson's and TGC's
ability to initiate, solicit or encourage or take any action to facilitate, discuss, negotiate or accept a competing third party proposal to acquire 20% or more of Dawson's or TGC's, as applicable,
assets, revenues, net income or equity securities. Although the board of directors of each of Dawson and TGC is permitted to change its recommendation that shareholders approve the matters relating to
the proposed merger if it determines in good faith that these actions are reasonably likely to be required to comply with its fiduciary duties and certain other conditions, doing so in specified
situations would require such party to pay the other party a termination fee of $2.0&nbsp;million. Furthermore, either Dawson or TGC will have to pay to the other party out-of-pocket expenses,
including all fees and expenses payable to all legal, accounting, financial, public relations and other professional advisors arising out of, in connection with, or related to the merger, up to a
maximum of $1.5&nbsp;million in the aggregate, if the merger agreement is terminated under certain circumstances. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Additionally,
these non-solicitation provisions could discourage a potential acquirer that might have an interest in acquiring all or a significant part of Dawson or TGC from considering
or proposing that
acquisition, even if it were prepared to pay consideration with a higher per share cash or market value than the consideration contemplated by the merger agreement or might result in a potential
competing acquirer proposing to pay a lower per share price to acquire Dawson or TGC than it might otherwise have proposed to pay because of the added expense of the termination fee that may become
payable in certain circumstances. </FONT></P>

restricted stock units and other benefits triggered prior to or upon completion of the merger and have rights to continued indemnification and insurance coverage after the completion of the merger. In
addition, certain executive officers of Dawson have entered into employment arrangements with TGC that will be effective as of the closing of the merger. Dawson's board of directors was aware of these
interests and considered them, among other things, in evaluating and negotiating the merger agreement and the merger and in making its recommendation that Dawson shareholders vote in favor of the

<P style="font-family:times;">


<FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If the merger is consummated, TGC will issue an estimated 14.3&nbsp;million shares of TGC common stock to Dawson shareholders, after
giving effect to the proposed reverse stock split, based on the number of shares of Dawson common stock and options to acquire Dawson common stock outstanding on December&nbsp;29, 2014. The increase
in the number of outstanding shares of TGC common stock may lead to sales of such stock or the perception that such sales may occur, either of which may adversely affect the market for, and the market
price of, TGC common stock.

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> The issuance of shares of TGC common stock to Dawson shareholders in the merger will substantially reduce the percentage ownership interest of current TGC shareholders;

of what the combined company's actual financial position or results of operations would have been had the merger been completed on the dates indicated. These data reflect adjustments, which are based

TGC's geographic diversity, an increase in utilization rates due to an expanded order book and the ability to enhance efficiencies because of logistical improvements, are achievable. However, it is
possible that TGC will not be able to achieve these benefits fully, or at all, or will not be able to achieve them within the anticipated timeframe. Dawson and TGC have operated and, until the
completion of the merger, will continue to operate, independently, and there can be no assurance that their businesses can be integrated successfully. If TGC's and Dawson's expectations as to the
benefits of the merger turn out to be incorrect, or TGC is not able to successfully integrate the businesses of Dawson and TGC for any other reason, the financial and operating results and the value

incremental transaction and merger-related costs over time, TGC may not achieve this net benefit in the near term, or at all. Further, if the merger is not completed, both TGC and Dawson would have to
recognize these expenses without realizing the expected benefits of the merger. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;">


<FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The fairness opinion issued in connection with the merger to TGC by Stephens&nbsp;Inc. regarding the fairness, from a financial point
of view, of the exchange ratio to TGC and the fairness opinion issued to Dawson by Raymond James&nbsp;&amp; Associates,&nbsp;Inc. regarding the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the
exchange ratio to the shareholders of Dawson, each speak only as of October&nbsp;8, 2014. Changes in the operations and prospects of TGC or Dawson, general market and economic conditions and other
factors which may be beyond the control of TGC and Dawson, and on which each fairness opinion was based, may have altered the value of TGC or Dawson or the market price of shares of TGC common stock
as of the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, or may alter such values and market price by the time the merger is completed. For example, the implied value of TGC common stock was $3.33 per
share on the date of the fairness opinion and $2.29 per share as of December&nbsp;29, 2014, and the implied value of Dawson common stock was $17.64 per share on the date of the fairness opinion and
$11.93 per share as of December&nbsp;29, 2014. Neither Raymond James&nbsp;&amp; Associates,&nbsp;Inc. nor Stephens&nbsp;Inc. has any obligation to update, revise or reaffirm its opinion to reflect
subsequent developments, and has not done so. For a description of the opinion that TGC and Dawson received from their financial advisor, please refer to "The Merger&#151;Opinion of TGC's

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The completion of the merger may trigger change in control provisions in certain agreements to which either TGC or Dawson is a party.
If TGC and Dawson are unable to negotiate waivers of those provisions, the counterparties may exercise their rights and remedies under the agreements (including terminating the agreements or seeking
monetary penalties). Even if TGC or Dawson is able to obtain waivers, the counterparties may demand a fee for such waivers or seek to renegotiate the agreements on materially less favorable terms than
those currently in place. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> The combined company's results of operations could be materially adversely affected if it were required to recognize asset impairments of intangibles or goodwill associated
with the merger.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If the merger is consummated, we expect that the intangibles associated with the combination of TGC with Dawson will be a significant
asset on the consolidated balance sheet for the combined company. Dawson currently anticipates the intangibles associated with the combination with TGC to be $2,700,000. See "Unaudited Pro Forma
Condensed Combined Consolidated Financial Information&#151;Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet as of September&nbsp;30, 2014" on page 212. However, future events, including
the combined company's financial performance, market valuation of it or comparable companies, loss of a significant client's business, failure to realize the benefits of the merger, or strategic
decisions, could cause the combined company to conclude that impairment indicators exist and that the asset values associated with long-lived assets, including intangibles and goodwill, must be
impaired. If the combined company is forced to impair intangibles, goodwill or any other long-lived asset, these noncash asset impairments could negatively affect in a material manner the combined
company's results of operations in the period in which they are recorded, and the larger the amount of any impairment that may be taken, the greater the impact such impairment would have on the
combined company's results of operations. See discussion of "Impairment of Long-Lived Assets" included in "Critical Accounting Policies" of Dawson's Annual Report on Form&nbsp;10-K for the year
ended September&nbsp;30, 2014. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;">


<FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As a result of the reverse stock split, and after giving effect to the merger, TGC expects that it will have approximately
21.6&nbsp;million shares of common stock outstanding, compared to approximately 22.0&nbsp;million shares of TGC common stock outstanding as of December&nbsp;29, 2014. TGC's amended and restated
certificate of formation currently authorizes TGC to issue 35.0&nbsp;million shares of common stock and TGC does not anticipate reducing this amount in connection with the reverse stock split or the
merger. As a result, TGC expects the reverse stock split, after completing the merger, will give it the ability to issue approximately 13.4&nbsp;million additional shares of common stock, including
shares that may be issued pursuant to awards that have been granted. Except in certain instances, as required by law or NASDAQ, these additional shares may be issued by TGC without further vote of TGC
shareholders. If the TGC board of directors chooses to issue additional shares of TGC common stock, such issuance could have a dilutive effect on the equity, earnings and voting interests of TGC
shareholders.

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Both Dawson and TGC are Texas corporations and are therefore governed by Texas law. However, if the merger is consummated, all Dawson
shareholders will become TGC shareholders and their rights as shareholders will be governed by TGC's amended and restated certificate of formation and amended and restated bylaws, as amended. There
are material differences between the current rights of Dawson shareholders, which are governed by Dawson's second restated

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As a condition to the completion of the merger, each of Baker Botts&nbsp;L.L.P., or Baker Botts, tax counsel to Dawson, and Haynes
and Boone,&nbsp;LLP, or Haynes and Boone, tax counsel to TGC, will be required to deliver an opinion, dated as of the closing date of the merger, that the merger will qualify for U.S. federal income
tax purposes as a "reorganization" within the meaning of Section&nbsp;368(a) of the Code. These opinions will be based on certain assumptions and representations as to factual matters from Dawson,
Merger Sub and TGC, as well as certain covenants and undertakings by Dawson, Merger Sub and TGC. If any of the assumptions, representations, covenants or undertakings is incorrect, incomplete,
inaccurate or is violated in any material respect, the validity of the conclusions reached by counsel in their opinions would be jeopardized. Additionally, an opinion of counsel represents counsel's
best legal judgment but is not binding on the United States Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, or any court, so there can be no certainty that the IRS will not challenge the conclusions reflected in
the opinions or that a court will not sustain such a challenge. If the IRS or a court determines that the merger does not qualify as a reorganization, a holder of Dawson common stock would recognize
taxable gain or loss upon the exchange of Dawson common stock for TGC common stock pursuant to the merger. See "Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger" beginning on

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> TGC may incur losses.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC reported net loss of approximately $3,762,000 for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2014, net loss of approximately
$6,316,000 for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2013, net income of approximately $15,672,000 for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2012, and net income of $10,833,000 for the year ended
December&nbsp;31, 2011. TGC also reported net loss for 2010 and net income for the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2009, 2008, and 2007. TGC's ability to be profitable in the future will depend on
many factors beyond its control, but primarily on the level of demand for land-based seismic data acquisition services by oil and natural gas exploration and development companies. Even if TGC does
achieve profitability, it may not be able to sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> TGC's revenues and operating results can be expected to fluctuate from period to period.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC's revenues, operating results, and profitability may fluctuate from period to period. These fluctuations are attributable to the
level of new business in a particular period, the timing of the initiation, progress, or cancellation of significant projects, higher revenues and expenses on TGC's dynamite contracts, and costs TGC
incurs to train new crews it may add in the future to meet increased customer demand. Fluctuations in TGC's operating results may also be affected by other factors that are outside of TGC's control
such as permit delays, weather delays, and crew productivity. Oil and natural gas prices continued to be volatile during the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2013 and the nine months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2014, and have resulted in demand fluctuations for TGC's services. There can be no assurance of future oil and gas price levels or stability. TGC's operations in Canada are also
seasonal as a result of the thawing season, and TGC has historically experienced limited Canadian activity for the second and third calendar quarters of each year. The demand for TGC's services will
be adversely affected by any significant reduction in oil and natural gas prices or by any climate change legislation or material changes to U.S. energy policy. Because TGC's business has high fixed
costs, the negative effect of one or more of these factors could trigger wide variations in TGC's operating revenues, EBITDA margin, and profitability from quarter-to-quarter, which these factors
render quarter-to-quarter comparisons unreliable as an indicator of performance. Due to the factors discussed above, you should not expect sequential growth in TGC's quarterly revenues and
profitability. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> TGC faces intense competition in its business from companies with greater financial resources.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The seismic data acquisition services industry is a highly competitive business in the continental United States and Canada. TGC's
competitors include companies with financial resources that are significantly greater than TGC as well as companies of comparable and smaller size. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> TGC is subject to Canadian foreign currency exchange rate risk.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC conducts business in Canada, which subjects TGC to foreign currency exchange rate risk. TGC's results of operations and cash flows
could be impacted by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> Technological change in TGC's business creates risks of technological obsolescence and requirements for future capital expenditures. If TGC is unable to keep up with these
technological advances, it may not be able to compete effectively.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Seismic data acquisition technologies historically have steadily improved and progressed, and we expect this progression to continue.
TGC's strategy had been to upgrade its seismic data acquisition equipment on a regular basis to maintain its competitive position, however, TGC had in place a maintenance capital expenditures policy
during 2013 and continuing until August 2014. TGC is in a </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> TGC is dependent on its management team and key employees, and the loss of any of them could harm its business.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC has limited management depth. The loss, whether by death, departure, or illness, of Wayne&nbsp;A. Whitener, TGC's President and
Chief Executive Officer, or other senior executives could have a material adverse effect on the ability of management to continue operations at the same level of efficiency. TGC has key man insurance
on the life of its President and Chief Executive Officer so that, in the event of his untimely death, TGC would receive insurance proceeds of $1,000,000 under this policy. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> Certain members of management team are not subject to employment or non-competition agreements and may leave employment at any time.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Other than employment agreements that will only go into effect if the merger is consummated, only TGC's President and Chief Executive
Officer and a salesman, and the President and an Operations Supervisor of Eagle Canada are subject to employment agreements and non-competition agreements. Members of TGC's management team who are not
subject to employment or non-competition agreements could leave upon little or no notice, which could have a material adverse effect on management's ability to continue operations at the same level of
effectiveness. Additionally, the lack of non-competition agreements would allow these members of the management team to immediately begin working for one of TGC's competitors upon the termination of
their relationship with TGC. This could have a negative impact on TGC's strategic plan and relationships with customers. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> TGC extends credit to customers without requiring collateral, and a default by a customer could have a material adverse effect on TGC's operating revenues.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial conditions and, generally, requires no collateral from customers. A
default in payment from one of TGC's large customers could have a material adverse effect on TGC's operating revenues for the period involved. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> Certain of TGC's core assets are pledged as collateral for short term notes that require large monthly payments.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Certain assets that are critical to TGC's operations, including an additional 7,200 channels of GSR equipment acquired in 2012, two GSR
Systems with a total of 13,000 channels acquired in 2012, an 8,000 station GSX system acquired in 2012 and a 10,500 channel INOVA Hawk seismic data acquisition system acquired in 2014 are pledged as
collateral to commercial banks and could be subject to foreclosure in the event that TGC defaults on its indebtedness having 36- to 60-month terms. TGC currently has debt obligations covering the
purchase of this equipment that require monthly payments between approximately $128,000 and $216,000. These debt obligations mature at various dates ranging from June&nbsp;2015 to September 2017.
Any decline in TGC's operations could inhibit TGC's ability to make these substantial monthly payments. In view of the short terms of these notes, a failure to make the monthly payments on these notes
could cause TGC's lenders to foreclose quickly on the assets securing these notes. The foreclosure on certain of TGC's core assets securing these notes could severely limit TGC's ability to continue
operations. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC's business is subject to the general risks inherent in land-based seismic data acquisition activities. TGC's activities are often
conducted in remote areas under dangerous conditions including the detonation of dynamite. These operations are subject to risks of injury to personnel and damage to equipment. TGC's crews are mobile,
and equipment and personnel are subject to vehicular accidents. These risks could cause TGC to experience equipment losses, injuries to its personnel, and interruptions in its business. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
addition, TGC could be subject to personal injury or real property damage claims in the normal operation of business. Such claims may not be covered under the indemnification

general service agreements require TGC to have specific amounts of insurance. There can be no assurance, however, that any insurance obtained will be adequate to cover all losses
or liabilities or that this insurance will continue to be available or available on terms which are acceptable to TGC. Liabilities for which TGC is not insured, or which exceed the policy limits of
applicable insurance, could have a materially adverse effect on TGC. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> TGC is subject to the requirements of Section&nbsp;404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. If TGC is unable to maintain compliance with Section&nbsp;404, or if the costs related

Failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls could have a material adverse effect on TGC's stock price. In addition, a material weakness in the effectiveness of TGC's internal control
over financial reporting could result in an increased chance of fraud and the loss of customers, reduce TGC's ability to obtain financing, and/or require additional expenditures to comply with these
requirements, each of which could negatively impact TGC's business, profitability, and financial condition. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> TGC derives nearly all of its revenues from companies in the oil and natural gas exploration and development industry, a historically cyclical industry, with levels of
activity that are significantly affected by the levels and volatility of oil and natural gas prices.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Demand for TGC's services depends upon the level of expenditures by oil and natural gas companies for exploration, production,
development and field management activities, which depend, in part, on oil and natural gas prices. Significant fluctuations in oil and natural gas exploration activities and oil and natural prices
have adversely affected the demand for TGC's services and our results of operations in the past and would continue to do so if the level of such exploration activities and the prices for oil and
natural gas were to decline in the future. In addition to the market prices of oil and natural gas, the willingness of TGC's clients to explore, develop and produce depends largely upon prevailing
industry conditions that are influenced by numerous factors over which our management has no control, including general economic conditions and the availability of credit. Any prolonged </FONT></P>

prices of oil and natural gas, oil and natural gas exploration and development companies may cancel or curtail their capital expenditure programs, thereby reducing demand for TGC's services. Oil and
natural gas prices have been highly volatile historically and, we believe, will continue to be so in the future. Many factors beyond TGC's control affect oil and natural gas prices

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;An economic downturn could have a material adverse effect on TGC's financial results and proposed plan of operations and could lead to
further significant fluctuations in the demand for and pricing of oil and gas. Reduced demand and pricing pressures could adversely affect the financial condition and results of operations of TGC's
customers and their ability to purchase the services TGC offers. TGC is not able to predict the timing, extent, and duration of the economic cycles in the markets in which it operates. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> TGC's operations are subject to delays related to obtaining land access rights of way from third parties that could affect TGC's results of operations.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC's seismic data acquisition operations could be adversely affected by TGC's inability to obtain timely right of way usage from both
public and private land and/or mineral
owners. Delays associated with obtaining such rights of way could negatively affect TGC's results of operations. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> TGC's business is subject to government regulation that may adversely affect its future operations.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC's operations are subject to a variety of federal, state, and provincial and local laws and regulations, including laws and
regulations relating to the protection of the environment and archeological sites and those that may result from climate change legislation. Canadian operations have been historically cyclical due to
governmental restrictions on seismic acquisition during certain periods. As a result, there is a risk that there will be a significant amount of unused equipment during those periods. TGC is required
to expend financial and managerial resources to comply with such laws and related permit requirements in its operations, and TGC anticipates that it will continue to be required to do so in the
future. Although such expenditures historically have not been material to TGC, the fact that such laws or regulations change frequently makes it impossible for TGC to predict the cost or impact of
such laws and regulations on its future operations. The adoption of laws and regulations that have the effect of reducing or curtailing exploration and development activities by energy companies could
also adversely affect TGC's operations by reducing the demand for TGC's services. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;">


<FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC's stock price is subject to significant volatility. Overall market conditions, including a decline in oil and natural gas prices
and other risks and uncertainties described in this "Risk Factors" section and elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein, could cause the market
price of TGC's common stock to fall. The high and low reported sales prices of TGC's common stock for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2013, were $10.43 and $6.31, respectively, and for the nine
months ended September&nbsp;30, 2014, were $7.45 and $3.69, respectively, and the closing price of TGC's common stock on December&nbsp;29, 2014, the last practicable full trading day prior to the
date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, was $2.26.

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC's
common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol "TGE." However, daily trading volumes for TGC's common stock are, and may continue to be, relatively
small compared to many other publicly traded securities. For example, during 2013 TGC's daily trading volume was as low as 8,100 shares. It may be difficult for you to sell your shares in the public
market at any given time at prevailing prices, and the price of TGC's common stock may, therefore, be volatile. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> Certain provisions of TGC's restated certificate of formation may make it difficult for a third party to acquire TGC in the future or may adversely impact your ability to

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC's restated certificate of formation contains provisions that require the approval of holders of 80% of TGC's issued and outstanding
shares before TGC may merge or consolidate with or into another corporation or entity or sell all or substantially all of TGC's assets to another corporation or entity. Additionally, if TGC increases
the size of its board from the current six to nine directors, TGC could by resolution of the board of directors stagger the directors' terms, and TGC's directors could not be removed without approval
of holders of 80% of TGC's issued and outstanding shares. These provisions could discourage or impede a tender offer, proxy contest, or other similar transaction involving control of TGC. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
addition, TGC's board of directors has the right to issue preferred stock upon such terms and conditions as it deems to be in the best interest of TGC. The terms of such preferred
stock may adversely impact the dividend and liquidation rights of the common shareholders without the approval of the common shareholders. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC paid its first cash dividend in December of 2012 but did not pay a cash dividend in 2013 and may not pay cash dividends on its
common stock in the foreseeable future. While there are currently no restrictions prohibiting TGC from paying dividends to its shareholders other than those set forth in the merger agreement, it is at
the discretion of the board of directors whether TGC pays any cash dividends on its common stock and depends on TGC's financial condition, results of operations, capital and legal requirements, and
other factors deemed relevant by the board of
directors. On May&nbsp;14, 2013 and May&nbsp;14, 2012, TGC paid 5% stock dividends to its shareholders. No cash or stock dividends were declared or paid in 2011 or 2014. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> TGC's common stock is considered a low-priced stock and is subject to regulations that limit or restrict the potential market for the stock.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC's common stock may be considered a low priced stock pursuant to rules promulgated under the Exchange Act. Under these rules,
broker-dealers participating in transactions in low priced securities must first deliver a risk disclosure document which describes that risks associated with such stock, the broker-dealer's duties,
the customer's rights and remedies, and certain market and other information, and make a suitability determination approving the customer for low priced stock transactions based on the customer's
financial situation, investment experience and objectives. Broker-dealers must also disclose these restrictions in writing and provide monthly account statements to the customer, and obtain specific
written consent of the customer. With these restrictions, the likely effect of designation as a low price stock would be to decrease the willingness of broker-dealers to make a market for TGC's common
stock, to decrease the liquidity of the stock and to increase the transaction costs of sales and purchase of such stocks compared to other securities. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Dawson is soliciting proxies for the Dawson special meeting from Dawson shareholders. Dawson and TGC are sharing equally in the costs
of printing and mailing this joint proxy statement/prospectus. However, Dawson will bear all other costs relating to soliciting proxies from Dawson shareholders. In addition to this mailing, Dawson's
directors, officers and employees (who will not receive any additional compensation for their services) may solicit proxies personally, and by telephone, facsimile, courier service, mail, email,
Internet, press release or advertisement (including on television, radio, newspapers or other publications of general distribution). Morrow has been engaged to aid in the distribution and solicitation
of proxies. Dawson will pay Morrow a fee of $15,000, along with a $6.50 per holder fee for each call made to such holder, and reimburse its out-of-pocket expenses for such items as mailing, copying,
faxes and other related matters and will indemnify Morrow against any losses arising out of Morrow's proxy soliciting services on behalf of Dawson. Dawson and its proxy solicitor will also request
that banks, brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries send proxy materials to the beneficial owners of Dawson common stock and will, if requested, reimburse them for their
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in doing so. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;">


<FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC shareholders who hold shares of TGC common stock in a stock brokerage account or through a bank, broker or other nominee ("street
name" shareholders) who wish to vote at the TGC special meeting should be provided a voting instruction card by the institution that holds their shares. If this has not occurred, contact the
institution that holds your shares. A number of banks and brokerage firms participate in a program that also permits shareholders whose shares are held in "street name" to direct their vote by
telephone or over the Internet. If your shares are held in an account at a bank or brokerage firm that participates in such a program, you may direct the vote of these shares by telephone or over the
Internet by following the voting instructions enclosed with the proxy form from the bank or brokerage firm. The Internet and telephone proxy procedures are designed to authenticate shareholders'
identities, to allow shareholders to give their proxy voting instructions and to confirm that those instructions have been properly recorded. Votes directed by telephone or over the Internet through
such a program must be received by 11:59&nbsp;p.m., New York City time, on Sunday, February&nbsp;8, 2015. Directing the voting of your shares will not affect your right to vote in person if you
decide to attend the TGC special meeting; however, you must first obtain a signed and properly executed legal proxy from your bank, broker or other nominee to vote your shares held in "street name" at
the TGC special meeting. Requesting a legal proxy prior to the deadline described above will automatically cancel any voting directions you have previously given by telephone or over the Internet with
respect to your shares.

shareholders should read carefully this joint proxy statement/prospectus in its entirety for more detailed information concerning the merger agreement, which is attached as Annex&nbsp;A to this

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
merger agreement provides that TGC will issue shares of TGC common stock in the merger. Upon the completion of the merger, each share of Dawson common stock outstanding immediately
before the merger will be converted into the right to receive 1.760 shares of TGC common stock for every one share of Dawson common stock they own, after giving effect to the 1-for-3 reverse stock

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As discussed in this joint proxy statement/prospectus, TGC is proposing that the TGC shareholders approve an amendment to TGC's amended
and restated certificate of formation to effect a 1-for-3 reverse stock split with respect to the issued and outstanding TGC common stock in connection with the merger. Effecting the 1-for-3 reverse
stock split will ensure that TGC has sufficient authorized shares of TGC common stock to complete the merger. TGC will file the amendment to its amended and restated certificate of formation
substantially in the form attached as Annex&nbsp;H to this joint proxy statement/prospectus with the Secretary of State of the State of Texas in order to, among other things, effect the reverse
stock split immediately prior to consummation of the merger. TGC shareholders should read carefully this joint proxy statement/prospectus in its entirety for more detailed information concerning the
reverse stock split. You are urged to read carefully the entire amendment to TGC's amended and restated certificate of formation included as Annex&nbsp;H before voting on this proposal. If TGC and
Dawson do not complete the merger, TGC will not amend its amended and restated certificate of formation to effect the reverse stock split contemplated by the reverse stock split proposal,
notwithstanding that TGC shareholders may have previously approved the reverse stock split proposal. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;By approving a 1-for-3 reverse stock split proposal, the TGC shareholders approve, subject to approval of the merger proposal, the
share issuance proposal, and the TGC name change proposal an amendment to TGC's amended and restated certificate of formation providing for a 1-for-3 reverse stock split with respect to the issued and
outstanding shares of TGC common stock in connection with the merger. If the TGC shareholders approve this reverse stock split proposal and TGC effects the reverse stock split, then every three issued
and outstanding shares of TGC common stock (and every three shares of TGC common stock, if any, that are treasury shares of TGC) would be combined and reclassified into one share of TGC common stock.
The reverse stock split would not change the number of authorized shares of TGC common stock. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If
TGC effects the reverse stock split proposal, then, except for adjustments that may result from the treatment of fractional shares as described below, each TGC shareholder will hold
the same percentage of then-outstanding TGC common stock immediately following the reverse stock split as such TGC shareholder held immediately prior to the reverse stock split. The par value of the
TGC common stock would remain unchanged at $0.01 per share. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If
TGC shareholders approve the reverse stock split proposal, the TGC board of directors will effect the reverse stock split only if Dawson shareholders have approved the merger proposal

reduced number of shares of TGC common stock upon the effectiveness of the certificate of amendment providing for the reverse stock split. TGC would effect the reverse stock split simultaneously for
all outstanding shares of TGC common stock. The reverse stock split would not change the number of authorized shares of TGC common stock. The reverse stock split will affect all TGC shareholders
uniformly and will not change any TGC shareholder's percentage ownership interest in TGC, except to the extent that the reverse stock split would result in any TGC shareholders otherwise owning a
fractional share that will be rounded up to the nearest whole share. Therefore, voting rights and other rights and preferences of the holders of TGC common stock will not be affected by the reverse

split would be to increase the number of authorized but unissued shares of TGC common stock. This could result in TGC being able to issue more shares without further shareholder approval. TGC has no

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If TGC shareholders approve the reverse stock split proposal and TGC effects the reverse stock split, TGC expects to file the proposed
certificate of amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Texas on or about the date on which we complete the merger. Beginning on the effective date of the reverse stock split, each
certificate representing pre-reverse split shares of TGC common stock will be deemed for all corporate purposes to evidence ownership of post-reverse stock split shares. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
soon as practicable after the effective date of the reverse stock split, TGC will notify its shareholders that it has effected the reverse stock split. TGC expects that TGC's transfer
agent will act as exchange agent for purposes of implementing the exchange of stock certificates. Holders of pre-reverse split shares will be asked to surrender to the exchange agent certificates
representing pre-reverse split shares and book-entry shares in exchange for post-reverse stock split shares in electronic book-entry form (unless such shareholder requests physical certificates) in
accordance with the procedures to be set forth in a letter of transmittal to be sent by TGC's transfer agent. TGC will not issue any shares to a TGC shareholder until such shareholder has surrendered
such shareholder's outstanding certificate(s) together with the properly completed and executed letter of transmittal to the exchange agent. Any pre-reverse stock split shares submitted for transfer,
whether pursuant to a sale or other disposition, or otherwise, will automatically be exchanged for post-reverse stock split shares. TGC SHAREHOLDERS SHOULD NOT DESTROY ANY STOCK CERTIFICATE(S) AND
SHOULD NOT SUBMIT ANY CERTIFICATE(S) UNLESS AND UNTIL REQUESTED TO DO SO. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Dawson
Geophysical Company, a Texas corporation, is a leading provider of U.S. onshore seismic data acquisition services as measured by the number of active data acquisition crews.
Founded in 1952, Dawson acquires and processes 2-D, 3-D and multi-component seismic data solely for its clients, ranging from major oil and gas companies to independent oil and gas operators as well
as providers of multi-client data libraries. Dawson began operations in Canada in 2012. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Dawson's
clients rely on seismic data to identify areas where subsurface conditions are favorable for the accumulation of hydrocarbons and to optimize development and production of
hydrocarbon reservoirs. As of September&nbsp;30, 2014, Dawson operated ten 3-D seismic data acquisition crews in the lower 48 states of the United States and Canada and a seismic data processing
center. The results of a seismic survey conducted for a client belong to that client. Dawson does not acquire seismic data for its own account nor does it participate in oil and gas ventures. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Dawson's
business consists of the acquisition and processing of seismic data using either 2-D or 3-D methods to produce an image of the earth's subsurface. The seismic method involves
the recording of reflected acoustic or sonic waves from below the ground. In its operations, Dawson introduces acoustic energy into the ground by using an acoustic energy source, usually large
vibrating machines or through the detonation of dynamite. Dawson then records the subsequent reflected energy, or echoes, with recording devices placed along the earth's surface. These recording
devices, or geophones, are placed on the ground individually or in groups connected together as a single recording channel. Dawson generally uses thousands of recording channels in its seismic
surveys. Additional recording channels enhance the resolution of the seismic survey through increased imaging analysis and provide improved operational efficiencies for Dawson's clients. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC
is a leading provider of seismic data acquisition services throughout the continental United States and Canada. During the quarter ended September&nbsp;30, 2014, TGC operated six
seismic crews, five in the
United States and one in Canada. These seismic crews supply seismic data primarily to companies engaged in the exploration and development of oil and natural gas on land and in land-to-water
transition areas. Eagle Canada's seismic acquisition services are also used by the potash mining industry in Canada, and Eagle Canada has particular expertise through its heliportable capabilities.

acquires geophysical data using the latest in 3-D survey techniques. TGC introduces acoustic energy into the ground by using vibration equipment or dynamite detonation, depending on
the surface terrain and subsurface requirements. The reflected energy, or echoes, is received through geophones, converted into a digital signal at a multi-channel recording unit, and then transmitted
to a central recording vehicle. Subsurface requirements dictate the number of channels necessary to perform TGC's services. With its state-of-the-art seismic equipment, including computer technology
and multiple channels, TGC acquires, on a cost effective basis, immense volumes of seismic data that, when processed and interpreted, produce more precise images of the earth's subsurface. TGC's
clients then use its seismic data to generate 3-D geologic models that help reduce finding costs and improve recovery rates from existing wells. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Dawson board of directors and the TGC board of directors have each approved the merger agreement. Pursuant to the merger agreement,
Merger Sub, a wholly owned subsidiary of TGC, will merge with and into Dawson, with Dawson continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of TGC. Immediately prior to the
merger, TGC will change its name to "Dawson Geophysical Company" and Dawson will change its name to "Dawson Operating Company." </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Upon
the consummation of the merger, each share of Dawson common stock issued and outstanding before the merger, other than any shares owned by Dawson, TGC or any of their respective
subsidiaries, will be converted into the right to receive 1.760 shares of TGC common stock, which is the exchange ratio, after giving effect to the reverse stock split. No fractional shares will be
issued to Dawson shareholders, and in lieu of any such fractional shares cash will be paid instead. The exchange ratio has been calculated based on the number of shares of TGC common stock that will
be outstanding following a 1-for-3 reverse stock split that will occur immediately prior to completion of the merger. The number of shares of TGC common stock to be issued in the merger for each
Dawson common share is fixed (except in the event of any stock dividend, subdivision, recapitalization, split, reverse split (other than the 1-for-3 reverse stock split occurring immediately prior to
the merger), combination or exchange of shares or similar event with respect to Dawson common stock or TGC common stock) and will not be adjusted for changes in the market price of either Dawson
common stock or TGC common stock. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>


&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The closing price of Dawson common stock on NASDAQ on October&nbsp;8, 2014, the last full trading day prior to the public announcement of the merger, was $17.57. The closing price of
Dawson common stock on NASDAQ on December&nbsp;29, 2014, the last practicable full trading day prior to the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, was $12.11.

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>


&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The closing price of TGC common stock on NASDAQ on October&nbsp;8, 2014, the last full trading day prior to the public announcement of the merger, was $3.34. The closing price of TGC
common stock on NASDAQ on December&nbsp;29, 2014, the last practicable full trading day prior to the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, was $2.26.

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Dawson's senior management regularly evaluates and periodically reviews with Dawson's board of directors, or the Dawson board,
strategies to enhance shareholder value, including opportunities to enhance the services it provides to its clients and its overall position in the seismic industry. One of the areas for potential
growth that Dawson has considered from time to time is the acquisition of, or a joint venture with, another seismic company. However, prior to entering into discussions with TGC, Dawson had not
identified a potential candidate that presented an attractive acquisition target or combination partner. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Similarly,
as part of their ongoing consideration and evaluation of TGC's long-term prospects and strategies, the TGC board of directors, or the TGC board, and senior management
regularly review and
assess opportunities to increase shareholder value and achieve long-term strategic goals, including, among other things, strategic alliances, potential opportunities for business combinations,
internal restructurings and investments and other strategic reviews. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Dawson
and TGC entered into a merger agreement on March&nbsp;20, 2011 in which the two companies agreed to combine in a stock-for-stock transaction whereby Dawson would issue shares of

stock in exchange for the outstanding shares of TGC common stock. This proposed transaction was subject to a "collar" on the price of Dawson's common stock (that is, a range of market prices
for Dawson common stock beyond which the agreed-upon exchange ratio would have to be renegotiated by the parties) as well as approval of the proposed transaction by 80% of the shares of TGC's common
stock. Both Dawson and TGC held special shareholder meetings on October&nbsp;27, 2011 and recommended that their respective shareholders approve the transaction at such meetings. Dawson's
shareholders approved the transaction, but TGC failed to obtain the required 80% approval from its shareholders, ultimately procuring approval from approximately 76.37% of its shareholders. Also, at
this time, Dawson's common stock began trading outside of the values stipulated as the collar for the transaction. As a result of the inability of TGC to obtain the required shareholder approval and
the trading price of Dawson's common stock outside of the collar, the parties chose to terminate the merger agreement and discontinue negotiations. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Following
the termination of the previously proposed transaction, each of TGC and Dawson operated their companies on a standalone basis and pursued business objectives as directed by
their respective boards of directors. During this time, while each of Dawson and TGC continued to evaluate business opportunities and value creation for shareholders, no formal discussions were held
between Dawson and TGC with respect to a potential combination. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Dawson board held a regular meeting on July&nbsp;22, 2014, at which Stephen C. Jumper, Dawson's Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, brought up the idea of re-visiting
a combination with TGC. After discussing the idea with the members of the Dawson board, the board agreed that Mr.&nbsp;Jumper should approach Wayne A. Whitener, the President and Chief Executive
Officer of TGC, to see if there was any interest on the part of TGC in a transaction to combine the two companies. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Mr.&nbsp;Jumper
called Mr.&nbsp;Whitener on July&nbsp;28, 2014 to discuss the possibility of reopening negotiations regarding a potential business combination transaction between
the two companies. After preliminary discussions with the TGC board, Mr.&nbsp;Whitener called Mr.&nbsp;Jumper back later that same day and indicated that TGC would potentially be interested in a
transaction. Mr.&nbsp;Jumper and Mr.&nbsp;Whitener agreed that the most desirable structure for both companies would be a stock-for-stock transaction with minimal closing
conditions and without a collar on stock prices. Messrs.&nbsp;Jumper and Whitener then scheduled a meeting in Dallas for August&nbsp;7, 2014 between a subset of Dawson's and TGC's respective
boards of directors. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
August&nbsp;4, 2014, the Dawson board of directors held a conference call and Mr.&nbsp;Jumper updated the board regarding the status of his discussions with Mr.&nbsp;Whitener
and TGC's interest in a potential transaction. The Dawson board determined that Mr.&nbsp;Jumper and two additional members of the Dawson board, Craig W. Cooper and Gary M. Hoover, would travel to
Dallas to meet with Mr.&nbsp;Whitener and certain members of the TGC board of directors on August&nbsp;7, 2014. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
August&nbsp;7, 2014, Messrs.&nbsp;Jumper, Cooper and Hoover met in Dallas with Mr.&nbsp;Whitener and two additional members of the TGC board, William J. Barrett and Allen T.
McInnes. Edward L. Flynn and Herbert M. Gardner, two other members of the TGC board, also joined relevant portions of the meetings via telephone. The parties discussed a potential combination
transaction, the structure of such a potential deal and general economic terms and equity ownership following such a transaction. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Mr.&nbsp;Jumper
called Dawson's principal outside counsel, Baker Botts, on August&nbsp;8, 2014 regarding the legal aspects of the potential transaction and possible structures.
Mr.&nbsp;Jumper also called Raymond James&nbsp;&amp; Associates,&nbsp;Inc., or Raymond James, on August&nbsp;8, 2014. Raymond James was not then engaged as Dawson's regular investment banker, but
had served as Dawson's financial advisor in 2011 for the proposed combination transaction with TGC and Dawson knew that Raymond James was familiar with both companies and the oilfield services
industry. Mr.&nbsp;Jumper discussed the potential </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
August&nbsp;11, 2014, the Dawson board convened via conference call to receive an update regarding the meetings and discussions with TGC on August&nbsp;7, 2014. Mr.&nbsp;Jumper
reported the generally favorable response that was received from TGC, as well as the initiations of review and analysis by Baker Botts and Raymond James. Subsequently, later on August&nbsp;11, 2014,
Dawson and TGC executed a nondisclosure agreement. Under the terms of the nondisclosure agreement, each party agreed to treat confidentially certain proprietary information shared by the other party
to enable them to analyze a possible combination of Dawson and TGC. In addition, the nondisclosure agreement contained, among other things, standstill restrictions that, in accordance with and subject
to the terms of the nondisclosure agreement, prohibited either party from making an unsolicited offer to acquire the securities of the other party for a period of one year and prohibited the parties
from soliciting any of the other party's employees involved or participating in the negotiation process. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Raymond
James delivered its initial contribution analysis to Dawson on August&nbsp;15, 2014 and convened a phone call with Mr.&nbsp;Jumper to discuss the analysis and preliminary
proposed shareholding splits between Dawson and TGC in the combined company. Between August&nbsp;18, 2014 and August&nbsp;22, 2014, Dawson and Raymond James exchanged phone calls and emails to
negotiate advisory fees that Raymond James would charge in connection with their analysis and opinion regarding the potential transaction. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
August&nbsp;22, 2014, the Dawson board convened a conference call to discuss the preliminary contribution analysis received from Raymond James and a potential share ownership split,
or share split, of the combined company between current Dawson shareholders and current TGC shareholders. During the meeting, the members of the Dawson board agreed that Raymond James and financial
advisors for TGC should prepare and provide analyses on an agreeable share split based on current market prices and such other factors as the respective financial advisors deemed relevant. The Dawson
board also discussed appropriate advisory fees to be paid to Raymond James in connection with the proposed transaction. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
August&nbsp;25, 2014, the Dawson board held a discussion with Raymond James regarding the contribution analysis and proposed share split, as well as Raymond James's advisory role
and the advisory fees that would be payable to Raymond James in connection with the proposed transaction. The Dawson board approved moving forward with negotiating the potential stock-for-stock
combination transaction with TGC. Later on August&nbsp;25, 2014, Mr.&nbsp;Jumper called Mr.&nbsp;Whitener to confirm both parties' intent to move forward with negotiating the transaction on a
stock-for-stock basis. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
August&nbsp;26, 2014, members of the Dawson board had a discussion with Raymond James regarding the financial analyses of TGC prepared by Raymond James and the implied share split.
Dawson and Raymond James also discussed the terms of a draft engagement letter whereby Dawson would agree to procure the services of Raymond James for the transaction. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
August&nbsp;28, 2014, representatives of Baker Botts and Haynes and Boone held a telephone call to discuss various preliminary matters related to the potential transaction,
including the due diligence process, which the parties agreed, in light of the stock-for-stock transaction, would need to be mutual. On September&nbsp;2, 2014, Dawson sent an initial request for
certain due diligence documents and materials relating to TGC. On August&nbsp;29, 2014, Dawson discussed with Ernst&nbsp;&amp; Young&nbsp;LLP, or EY, the possibility of EY conducting financial
accounting due diligence for Dawson, including a review of TGC's audit workpapers, accounting policies and quality of earnings. Representatives of Dawson, Baker Botts and EY conducted legal, business
and financial due diligence with respect to TGC during the remainder of August, all of September and into October. </FONT></P>

September&nbsp;3, 2014, Dawson, TGC and legal and financial advisors for each held meetings at the offices of Baker Botts in Dallas to outline potential transaction structure,
proposed metrics and a tentative timeline. Specifically, the parties discussed structuring the transaction such that Dawson would merge with a subsidiary of TGC in exchange for receipt of shares of
TGC common stock at a to be agreed-upon exchange ratio. The parties also discussed the desirability of a reverse stock split with respect to TGC common stock as well as the composition of the board of
directors of the combined company. Mr.&nbsp;Jumper and Mr.&nbsp;Whitener each gave management presentations regarding their respective companies, including financial results, reports on
operations, status of equipment and future outlook. Both Mr.&nbsp;Jumper and Mr.&nbsp;Whitener also enumerated reasons why a combination of Dawson and TGC would yield favorable results for both
companies and their shareholders. Both parties agreed to begin drafting legal documents on the basis of their discussions and continue due diligence efforts. On the same day, Dawson executed an
engagement letter with Raymond James pursuant to which Raymond James would prepare a financial analysis of the proposed transaction with a view towards advising the Dawson board as to its opinion of
the fairness of the exchange ratio, from a financial point of view, to Dawson's shareholders. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Dawson board convened a conference call on September&nbsp;4, 2014 and Mr.&nbsp;Jumper updated the Dawson board regarding the results of the meetings held on September&nbsp;3,
2014 and the status of negotiations and possible deal terms. Also on September&nbsp;4, 2014, Dawson and TGC exchanged financial information that each of their respective management teams had
prepared. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
September&nbsp;5, 2014, TGC formally retained Stephens to serve as its financial advisor in connection with a possible business combination transaction with Dawson. Shortly
thereafter, TGC and Dawson began exchanging preliminary financial due diligence materials. Additionally, each of TGC's and Dawson's board of directors individually considered a range of acceptable
share splits that could be used to determine an exchange ratio for the transaction and each began discussions of the potential share split with its respective financial advisor. Representatives of
Stephens and Raymond James began conducting financial due diligence related to the proposed business combination transaction between TGC and Dawson in early September of 2014. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Raymond
James circulated an initial draft of a term sheet to Stephens on September&nbsp;8, 2014. This draft did not include a proposed share split or a ratio for the reverse stock
split or the composition of the board of the combined company following the transaction. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
September&nbsp;8 and 9, 2014, Raymond James and Stephens convened multiple calls to discuss the draft term sheet and valuation methodologies. Raymond James and Stephens also had
discussions on these dates with Mr.&nbsp;Jumper and Mr.&nbsp;Whitener, respectively, to discuss the draft term sheet and share split. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
September&nbsp;10, 2014, a conference call was held between Dawson, TGC and their respective legal and financial advisors to discuss the draft term sheet and negotiate key terms.
The parties discussed the composition of the board of the combined company following the merger and appropriate terms for such directors, as well as termination fees and expense reimbursements in the
event that one or both of the parties terminated the merger agreement following its execution. The parties also discussed the
treatment of equity based compensation awards made by Dawson and TGC in the event of a combination transaction. Mr.&nbsp;Jumper then called Raymond James and Baker Botts and exchanged emails to
revise the term sheet pursuant to these discussions, and the revised draft was recirculated to TGC, Stephens and Haynes and Boone. </FONT></P>

towards agreeing on the principal terms in the term sheet. Mr.&nbsp;Jumper also reported that the parties had not yet proposed a share split (and resulting exchange ratio) or a ratio for the
TGC reverse stock split in the draft term sheet. After considerable discussion, the Dawson board agreed that Dawson should propose a share split whereby current Dawson shareholders would hold 68% of
the shares of common stock of the combined company, with current TGC shareholders holding the other 32%. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
September&nbsp;12, 2014, Raymond James discussed business combination terms with Stephens including a structure whereby current Dawson shareholders would hold 68% of the shares of
common stock of the combined company and current TGC shareholders would hold the other 32%. The proposal also called for a seven member board of directors for the combined company, to consist of five
current Dawson directors and two current TGC directors. Also on September&nbsp;12, 2014, Baker Botts delivered an initial draft of a merger agreement to Haynes and Boone, and on September&nbsp;15,
2014 Baker Botts delivered draft voting agreements requiring each TGC and Dawson director and executive officer to vote in favor of the proposed transaction, subject to certain conditions. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
September&nbsp;15, 2014, after consultation with TGC management, Stephens delivered a counter proposal to Raymond James with current Dawson shareholders receiving 63% of the shares
of the combined company and current TGC shareholders holding the other 37%. This proposal also called for an eight member board of directors for the combined company, to consist of five current Dawson
directors and three current TGC directors, with one TGC director to be replaced after a year. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Raymond
James and Stephens convened a conference call on September&nbsp;16, 2014 to discuss contribution levels between Dawson and TGC and post-merger board composition. Dawson then
delivered a counter proposal for a share split with current Dawson shareholders receiving 66% of the shares of the combined company and current TGC shareholders holding the other 34%. In connection
with discussing the reverse stock split and exchange ratio, the parties discussed the number of shares of
common stock of the combined company that would remain outstanding following the completion of the business combination, as well as the potential impact on the trading price of the common stock and
the amount of public float. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
September&nbsp;23, 2014, the Dawson board held a meeting and discussed the status of negotiations, the terms proposed in the most recent draft of the term sheet and drafts of the
merger agreement, voting agreements and ancillary documents. Mr.&nbsp;Jumper reported that he had received a phone call from Mr.&nbsp;Whitener indicating that TGC was generally agreeable to the
most recent proposal of a 66%/34% share split and an eight member board composition (with one of the TGC directors being nominated for one year and the other seven directors being nominated for three
years), pending the outcome of final due diligence review and negotiation of the remaining points of the transaction. </FONT></P>

status of the relevant documentation. The TGC board discussed certain issues in connection with the merger agreement, including whether TGC would be permitted to have a bring down fairness opinion,
the termination fee provisions and the composition of the TGC's post-merger board of directors. The representative of Haynes and Boone generally discussed fiduciary duties of the TGC board under Texas

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At
a telephonic meeting of the TGC board on September&nbsp;26, 2014, representatives of Stephens reviewed the background and status of the potential business combination transaction,
including the status of due diligence and the negotiation of the terms of the merger agreement. The Stephens representatives discussed recent changes in the seismic industry and the potential benefits
of combining TGC and Dawson, including the likelihood of significant long-term operational and financial benefits. After discussion, the TGC board concluded that the termination fees in the merger
agreement should be the same for TGC and Dawson. Additionally, after considering the proposed board structure for the combined entity, the TGC board agreed with the most recently proposed structure,
whereby Dawson
would name five directors and TGC would name three, with William J. Barrett to serve as one of TGC's appointed directors for a one year term. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
the afternoon of October&nbsp;1, 2014, Dawson, TGC and legal and financial advisors for each held a meeting at offices of Baker Botts in Dallas to discuss the status of the draft
merger agreement and associated documents, status of each party's due diligence review and open items with respect to the same, and the process for a planned execution of the merger agreement on
October&nbsp;8, 2014. Mr.&nbsp;Jumper and Mr.&nbsp;Whitener and their respective management teams discussed proposed synergies that could be achieved by combining Dawson and TGC.
Mr.&nbsp;Jumper and Mr.&nbsp;Whitener also discussed the proposed reverse stock split with respect to TGC common stock and requested input from Raymond James and Stephens regarding the same.
Mr.&nbsp;Whitener noted that the TGC board believed that a one-for-three ratio was the most appropriate for the proposed reverse stock split, and Mr.&nbsp;Jumper indicated that Dawson believed a
one-for-four or a one-for-five ratio was more desirable. The parties did not come to an agreement on this matter during the meeting, but agreed to take the other party's views into consideration and
reconvene to discuss at a later date. </FONT></P>

on October&nbsp;3, 2014, Baker Botts delivered a revised draft of the merger agreement reflecting Dawson's comments thereon to Haynes and Boone. From October&nbsp;3, 2014
through October&nbsp;7, 2014 Dawson's and TGC's respective management and legal advisors continued to exchange drafts of a merger agreement and the employment and other agreements to be entered into
by the key employees of TGC and Dawson to engage in negotiations regarding the terms of the proposed merger, including the issues noted above. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
October&nbsp;6, 2014, the Dawson board held a telephonic meeting to discuss the status of draft documents for the transaction, final due diligence review and the reverse stock split
ratio. Raymond James participated in the telephonic meeting to discuss the reverse stock split ratio as well as the implied exchange ratio (taking the reverse stock split into consideration) that
would be necessary to yield a combined company held 66% by current Dawson shareholders and 34% by current TGC shareholders. Later on October&nbsp;6, 2014, drafts of the merger agreement and related
documents were circulated to each of the Dawson board members for review in advance of the planned October&nbsp;8, 2014 board meeting at the offices of Baker Botts in Dallas. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Raymond
James and Stephens held conference calls on October&nbsp;6, 2014 and October&nbsp;7, 2014 to discuss the reverse stock split ratio and the exchange ratio. Mr.&nbsp;Jumper
and Mr.&nbsp;Whitener also participated in certain of these phone calls as appropriate. Mr.&nbsp;Jumper reiterated his concerns regarding the trading price of the combined company if a
one-for-three ratio was used, but agreed to discuss with his advisors. After additional discussions with Raymond James, Mr.&nbsp;Jumper called Mr.&nbsp;Whitener to communicate that Dawson
generally agreed to proceed with a one-for-three ratio for the reverse stock split, pending final incorporation of such ratio in the merger agreement and the approval from the Dawson board of the
same. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At
a telephonic meeting of the TGC board on October&nbsp;7, 2014, representatives of Stephens delivered to the TGC board their presentation concerning the potential business
combination transaction with Dawson in connection with their work on the fairness opinion. The presentation included the variety of valuation methods and supporting analyses that Stephens used in
determining the fairness, from a financial point of view, to TGC of the exchange ratio as well as the potential strategic benefits of the proposed transaction. The TGC board and the Stephens
representatives discussed that they were not aware of other strategic alternatives currently available to TGC that would reasonably be expected to be more attractive than the proposed business
combination transaction with Dawson and that no third party bidders had emerged during the period in which the prior TGC and Dawson merger agreement was in place in 2011. The TGC board also discussed
structuring the current proposed transaction with Dawson in a way to create low barriers of entry in case a third party acquirer emerged. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
presentation concluded with the Stephens representatives promising to deliver an updated version of the presentation at the TGC board meeting to be held the next day on
October&nbsp;8, 2014. The meeting ended with a discussion of the press release, voting agreements and other ancillary documents related to the merger agreement. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On the afternoon of October&nbsp;8, 2014, the TGC board convened a telephonic meeting at the Dallas office of Haynes and Boone to review and consider the
proposed merger agreement. Present at the meeting were all of the members of the TGC board, representatives of Stephens and representatives of Haynes and Boone. At the meeting, representatives of
Haynes and Boone discussed with the TGC board their fiduciary duties as well as certain material terms of the merger agreement, including the reverse stock split of 1-for-3 shares of TGC's common
stock, the "no shop" covenant, the requirement to pay a fee of $2&nbsp;million and the requirement to pay up to $1.5&nbsp;million to reimburse the other party's expenses in the event the merger
agreement was terminated under certain provisions. Representatives of Haynes and Boone explained that the "no shop" and termination provisions were mutual in that each of TGC and Dawson was subject to
the same restrictions and had the same exceptions to the restrictions. In addition, the directors discussed and approved extending the exercise period for certain options granted to TGC's non-employee
directors in July 2014 to permit those directors who would be resigning from the board at the time of the merger to be able to exercise the options for more than 90&nbsp;days following the date of
such resignation. The exercise period was extended to the earlier of five years from the date of grant of the option or the third anniversary of the date on which the person ceased to serve as a
director of TGC. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Following
the discussion by Haynes and Boone, representatives of Stephens reviewed their financial analysis of the proposed transaction with the TGC board and delivered their updated
fairness presentation. In response to a question regarding whether any other potential acquirers may be interested in TGC, Stephens stated it was unlikely a more logical counterparty would emerge,
given, among other things: the state of industry seismic industry, TGC's specific business, financial performance of several key competitors and that no counterparties materialized as part of the
attempted transaction with Dawson in 2011. Stephens also discussed the fact that TGC held preliminary discussions with a potential strategic counterparty in 2013 regarding a strategic transaction and
TGC board of directors decided that the transaction was not in the long term best interest of TGC at that time. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;After
the presentations by Haynes and Boone and Stephens, the TGC board had extensive discussions regarding the merger agreement and the related transactions. The TGC board of directors
discussed that, although they were not aware of any other entities that may make an offer for TGC, the termination fee was set at a level that created a low barrier of entry for other potential
acquirers. The TGC board also reviewed the employment agreements for the management of the combined company and found them to be reasonable and customary. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Stephens
then rendered its oral opinion that the exchange ratio was fair to TGC from a financial point of view. The oral opinion was confirmed in writing later that day. Following the
oral opinion from Stephens, Haynes and Boone presented and discussed draft resolutions of the TGC board with respect to the proposed transaction. After consideration, the TGC board determined that the
merger agreement and the other transactions contemplated therein were advisable and in the best interests of TGC and its shareholders. The TGC board then adopted the resolutions presented by Haynes
and Boone, which included approval of the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated therein, a resolution to recommend the approval of the merger agreement to the shareholders of TGC and
authorization for management to enter into the merger agreement. Mr.&nbsp;Whitener abstained from voting with respect to his employment terms. The TGC board unanimously approved the merger
agreement, including the merger, the reverse stock split, the name change and the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Also
on the afternoon of Wednesday, October&nbsp;8, 2014, the Dawson board convened a meeting at the Dallas office of Baker Botts to review and consider the proposed merger agreement.
Present at the meeting were members of Dawson's senior management, representatives of EY, Baker Botts and Raymond James and all of the members of the Dawson board, except Tim C. Thompson who was
unable to attend due to unexpected travel delays (although he had previously expressed to Mr.&nbsp;Jumper </FONT></P>

support for the transaction). At the meeting, the representatives of EY outlined to the Dawson board their due diligence findings regarding TGC. Mr.&nbsp;Jumper also outlined for the Dawson
board key terms of the proposed merger, including the relative ownership percentage of the combined company for current Dawson shareholders, the exchange ratio and the reverse split ratio, described
to the Dawson board the negotiations that had occurred since their last update, reviewed the strategic rationale for the transaction, including the operational advantages that would result from a
combined organization, reviewed recent financial results of TGC, and recommended that the Dawson board approve the merger on the terms presented. Representatives of Baker Botts discussed with the
Dawson board their fiduciary duties under Texas law as well as certain material terms of the merger agreement
and other documents related to the merger agreement, including the draft employment agreements, draft indemnity agreements, voting agreements, rights plan amendment and certain legal matters relating
to the Dawson board's consideration of the proposed merger. During the course of the discussion, the representatives of Baker Botts responded to various questions regarding the merger agreement and
the transaction. At the meeting, the representatives of Baker Botts also presented and discussed draft resolutions of the Dawson board with respect to the proposed transaction. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Also
at the meeting, representatives of Raymond James reviewed with the Dawson board their financial analysis of the proposed transaction, including their analysis of the share split and
resulting exchange ratio. Raymond James also rendered its oral opinion, which was confirmed in writing later in the day, that, based upon its analysis, the exchange ratio of 1.760 split-effected
shares of TGC common stock for each share of Dawson common stock was fair, from a financial point of view, to Dawson shareholders. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Dawson board also discussed the need for an amendment to Dawson's shareholder rights plan in order to permit the proposed transaction with TGC to proceed without triggering any
shareholder rights. Baker Botts discussed the draft amendment with the rights agent that had previously been circulated to the Dawson board and noted that the amendment would permit the transaction to
proceed without triggering any shareholder rights, but that the amendment was specific to the proposed transaction with TGC pursuant to the draft merger agreement and the rights plan would continue to
be in effect with respect to any alternative transactions (with TGC or otherwise) that might present themselves after execution of the amendment to the rights plan and the merger agreement. Baker
Botts also explained that the Dawson shareholder rights plan would expire pursuant to its terms and the terms of the proposed amendment if and when the merger with TGC became effective. After several
inquiries regarding the amendment to the rights plan and its function with respect to the proposed transaction as well as alternative transactions that might emerge between signing the merger
agreement and closing the merger, the Dawson board approved the amendment to the rights plan and authorized management to execute the same. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Following
consideration of the terms of the proposed merger and discussion among the directors, senior management, and representatives of Baker Botts and Raymond James, the directors
determined that the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated therein were advisable and in the best interests of Dawson and its shareholders, approved the merger agreement and the
transactions contemplated therein and resolved (subject to the exceptions contained in the merger agreement) to recommend the approval of the issuance of merger consideration by the shareholders of
Dawson, and authorized management to enter into the merger agreement. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In

addition, the Dawson board of directors considered the requirement under the merger agreement that TGC enter into employment agreements, effective as of the effective time of the
merger, substantially in the form attached as Annex&nbsp;F to this joint proxy statement/prospectus, with the following key employees: Stephen C. Jumper, Dawson's Chairman, President and Chief
Executive Officer, to become the Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of TGC following the merger; Wayne A. Whitener, TGC's current President and Chief Executive Officer, to become the Vice
Chairman of TGC following the merger; C. Ray Tobias, Dawson's current Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, to serve in the same capacity for TGC following the merger; James K. Brata,
TGC's current Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, to serve in the same capacity for TGC following the merger; Christina W. Hagan, Dawson's current Executive Vice President, Chief
Financial Officer and Secretary, to become the Executive Vice President, Chief Accounting Officer and Secretary of TGC following the merger; James W. Thomas, Dawson's current Executive Vice President
and Chief Technology Officer, to serve in the same capacity for TGC following the merger, and Daniel&nbsp;G. Winn, TGC's current Executive Vice President, to become Senior Vice President of TGC
following the merger. These employment agreements are each for three-year terms. These employment agreements were entered into on October&nbsp;8, 2014 in connection with the execution of the merger
agreement, but will only be effective upon the effective time of the merger. The employment agreements reflect each executive's post-merger duties and title. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For
additional information on the terms of such employment agreements, see "The Employment Agreements" beginning on page 157. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Further,
the Dawson board of directors was aware of and considered that some of TGC's directors and executive officers have interests in the transactions contemplated by the merger
agreement that are different from, or in addition to, their interests as TGC shareholders and the interests of TGC shareholders generally, as described in "The Merger&#151;Conflicts of
Interests" beginning on page 122. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;After
considering and weighing all factors, both positive and negative, the Dawson board of directors concluded that the anticipated benefits of the merger would outweigh the negative
considerations of the proposed transaction. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B>Accordingly, the Dawson board of directors recommends that Dawson shareholders vote "FOR" the merger proposal and "FOR" the Dawson name change proposal.</B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Properly

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
described under the headings "Dawson Proposal 3&#151;The Advisory Resolution Proposal" and "The Merger&#151;Conflicts of Interests" beginning on pages 67 and 122,
respectively, of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, Dawson's directors and executive officers will receive financial benefits that are different from, or in addition to, those of Dawson's

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Additionally,
the TGC board of directors considered the requirement under the merger agreement that TGC enter into employment agreements, effective as of the effective time of the
merger, substantially in the form attached as Annex&nbsp;F to this joint proxy statement/prospectus, with the following key employees: Stephen C. Jumper, Dawson's current Chairman, President and
Chief Executive Officer, to become the Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of TGC following the merger; Wayne A. Whitener, TGC's current President and Chief Executive Officer, to become
the Vice Chairman of TGC following the merger; C. Ray Tobias, Dawson's current Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, to serve in the same capacity for TGC following the merger; James
K. Brata, TGC's current Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, to serve in the same capacity for TGC following the merger; Christina W. Hagan, Dawson's current Executive Vice President,
Chief Financial Officer and Secretary, to become the Executive Vice President, Chief Accounting Officer and Secretary of
TGC following the merger; James W. Thomas, Dawson's current Executive Vice President and Chief Technology Officer, to serve in the same capacity for TGC following the merger; and Daniel G. Winn, TGC's
current Executive Vice President, to become Senior Vice President of TGC following the merger. Each of the employment agreements was entered into on October&nbsp;8, 2014 and becomes effective upon
the effective time of the merger. For additional information on the terms of such employment agreements, see "The Employment Agreements" beginning on page 157. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
TGC board of directors also considered the requirement under the merger agreement that certain shareholders of TGC enter into the TGC shareholder voting agreements, and that certain
shareholders of Dawson enter into the Dawson shareholder voting agreement. For additional information regarding the voting agreements between TGC's shareholders and Dawson, see "The TGC Shareholder
Voting Agreements" beginning on page 153, and for additional information regarding the voting agreement between Dawson's shareholders and TGC, see "The Dawson Shareholder Voting Agreement" beginning
on page 155. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Further,
the TGC board of directors was aware of and considered that some of Dawson's directors and executive officers have interests in the transactions contemplated by the merger
agreement that are different from, or in addition to, their interests as Dawson shareholders and the interests of Dawson shareholders generally, as described in "The Merger&#151;Conflicts of
Interests" beginning on page 122. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Following
a discussion of such considerations, the TGC board of directors determined that the positive factors relating to the merger outweighed the negative factors. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B>Accordingly, the TGC board of directors recommends that TGC shareholders vote "FOR" the share issuance proposal, "FOR" the reverse stock split proposal and "FOR" the TGC name
change proposal.</B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Properly
dated and signed proxies, and proxies properly submitted over the Internet and by telephone, will be so voted unless TGC shareholders specify otherwise. </FONT></P>

described under the heading "The Merger&#151;Conflicts of Interests" beginning on page 122 of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, TGC's directors and executive officers will
receive financial benefits that are different from, or in addition to, those of TGC's shareholders. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Although Dawson does not provide public guidance in respect of its future financial performance, in connection with the negotiation and
execution of the merger agreement, and at the request of Raymond James, its financial advisor, TGC and Stephens, TGC's financial advisor, Dawson provided its board of directors, Raymond James, TGC and
Stephens with certain prospective financial information. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Dawson
is providing a summary of such prospective financial information solely to give shareholders access to the information that Dawson made available to its board of directors,
Raymond James, TGC and Stephens. The prospective financial information presented here is not included in this joint proxy statement/prospectus in order to influence any shareholder to make any
investment decision with respect to the merger. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
prospective financial information was prepared by Dawson's management as of September 2014 and was based solely upon information available to Dawson's management at that time. The
prospective financial information was not prepared with a view toward public disclosure, or with a view toward compliance with published guidelines of the SEC, the guidelines established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants for preparation and presentation of financial forecasts, or GAAP. Neither Dawson's independent registered public accounting firm, nor any other
independent accountants, have compiled, examined or performed any procedures with respect to the prospective financial information included below, or expressed any opinion or any other form of
assurance on such information or its achievability. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;When
prepared, the prospective financial information reflected Dawson's estimates and assumptions with respect to industry performance, general business, economic, regulatory, market and
financial conditions and other future events, as well as matters specific to Dawson's business, all of which were difficult to predict and many of which were beyond Dawson's control. The prospective
financial information reflected subjective judgment in many respects and thus was and continues to be susceptible to multiple interpretations and has been and will continue to be affected by actual
experience and business developments. As such, the prospective financial information constitutes forward-looking information and is subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results
to differ materially from the results forecasted in such prospective information, including, but not limited to, Dawson's performance, industry performance, general business and economic conditions,
customer requirements, competition, adverse changes in applicable laws, regulations or rules, fluctuations in oil and natural gas prices, external factors affecting Dawson's crews such as weather
interruptions and the inability to obtain land access rights of way, the level of energy industry spending for seismic data acquisition services and the other various risks set forth in Dawson's
reports filed with the SEC. There can be no assurance that the prospective results will be realized or that actual results will not be significantly higher or lower than forecast. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
prospective financial information covers multiple years, and such information by its nature becomes less reliable with each successive year. In addition, Dawson's actual results will
be affected by Dawson's ability to achieve strategic goals, objectives and targets over the applicable periods. The prospective information also reflected assumptions as to certain business decisions
that are subject to change. Such prospective information cannot, therefore, be considered a guaranty of future operating results, and this information should not be relied on as such. </FONT> <FONT SIZE=2><B>The inclusion of this information should

information described below. None of Dawson, TGC, Merger Sub or any of their financial advisors or any of their affiliates intends to, and each of them

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
prospective financial information does not reflect Dawson's current estimates and does not take into account any circumstances or events occurring after the date it was prepared,
including the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement. In addition, as prepared, the prospective financial information did not take into account Dawson's transaction costs related to the
proposed merger, which have been material since August of 2014. Further, the prospective financial information does not take into account the effect of any failure of the merger to occur and should
not be viewed as accurate or continuing in that context. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
prospective information should be evaluated in conjunction with the historical financial statements and other information regarding Dawson contained in Dawson's public filings with

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
prospective financial information set forth herein regarding EBITDA may be considered a non-GAAP financial measure. Dawson provided this information to its board of directors,
Raymond James, TGC and Stephens, because Dawson believed it could be useful in evaluating, on a prospective basis, Dawson's potential operating performance and cash flow. EBITDA should not be
considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in compliance with GAAP, and EBITDA as used by Dawson may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts used by
other companies. Dawson has not reconciled the projected EBITDA for 2014 or 2015 to net income because applicable information on which this reconciliation is based is not readily available.
Accordingly, a reconciliation of the projected 2014 and 2015 EBITDA to net income at this time is not available without unreasonable effort. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> TGC Unaudited Prospective Financial Information  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Although TGC does not provide public guidance in respect of its future financial performance, in connection with the negotiation and
execution of the merger agreement, and at the request of Stephens, its financial advisor, Dawson and Raymond James, Dawson's financial advisor, TGC provided its board of directors, Stephens, Dawson
and Raymond James with certain prospective financial information. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC
is providing a summary of such prospective financial information solely to give shareholders access to the information that TGC made available to its board of directors, Stephens,
Dawson and Raymond James. The prospective financial information presented here is not included in this joint proxy statement/prospectus in order to influence any shareholder to make any investment
decision with respect to the merger. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
prospective financial information was prepared by TGC's management as of September 2014 and was based solely upon information available to TGC's management at that time. The
prospective financial information was not prepared with a view toward public disclosure, or with a view toward compliance with published guidelines of the SEC, the guidelines established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants for preparation and presentation of financial forecasts, or GAAP. Neither TGC's independent registered public accounting firm, nor any other
independent accountants, have compiled, examined or performed any procedures with respect to the prospective financial information included below, or expressed any opinion or any other form of
assurance on such information or its achievability. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;When
prepared, the prospective financial information reflected TGC's estimates and assumptions with respect to industry performance, general business, economic, regulatory, market and
financial conditions and other future events, as well as matters specific to TGC's business, all of which were difficult to predict and many of which were beyond TGC's control. The prospective
financial information reflected subjective judgment in many respects and thus was and continues to be susceptible to multiple interpretations and has been and will continue to be affected by actual
experience and business developments. As such, the prospective financial information constitutes forward-looking information and is subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results
to differ materially from the results forecasted in such prospective information, including, but not limited to, TGC's performance, industry performance, general business and economic conditions,
customer requirements, competition, adverse changes in applicable laws, regulations or rules, and the various
risks set forth in TGC's reports filed with the SEC. There can be no assurance that the prospective results will be realized or that actual results will not be significantly higher or lower than
forecast. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
prospective financial information covers multiple years, and such information by its nature becomes less reliable with each successive year. In addition, TGC's actual results will be
affected by TGC's ability to achieve strategic goals, objectives and targets over the applicable periods. The prospective information also reflected assumptions as to certain business decisions that
are subject to change. Such prospective information cannot, therefore, be considered a guaranty of future operating results, and this information should not be relied on as such. </FONT> <FONT SIZE=2><B>The inclusion of this information should not be
regarded as an indication that this information is a reliable prediction of future events, and this information should not be
relied upon as such.</B></FONT><FONT SIZE=2> However, this information was one of the factors taken into account by the financial advisors of Dawson and TGC in rendering their respective opinions.
None of Dawson, TGC, Merger Sub or any of their financial advisors or any of their affiliates assumes any responsibility for the validity or reasonableness of the prospective information described
below. None of Dawson, TGC, Merger Sub or any of their financial advisors or any of their affiliates intends to, and each of them disclaims any obligation to, update, revise or correct such
prospective information if it is or becomes inaccurate (even in the short term). </FONT></P>

proposed merger, which have been material since August of 2014. Further, the prospective financial information does not take into account the effect of any failure of the merger to occur and should
not be viewed as accurate or continuing in that context. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The

James provided its opinion for the information of the Dawson board of directors (solely in its capacity as such) in connection with, and for purposes of, its consideration of the
transaction and its opinion only addresses whether, as of the date of such opinion, the exchange ratio in the transaction, pursuant to the merger agreement was fair, from a financial point of view, to
the holders of Dawson common stock and did not address any other term or aspect of the merger agreement or the merger. The Raymond James opinion does not constitute a recommendation to the Dawson
board of directors or to any holder of Dawson common stock as to how the Dawson board of directors, such stockholder or any other person should vote or otherwise act with respect to the merger or any
other matter. Raymond James does not express any opinion as to the likely trading range of the surviving company's common stock following the merger, which may vary depending on numerous factors that
generally impact the price of securities or on the financial condition of Dawson or TGC at that time. </FONT></P>

and TGC, and Raymond James has relied upon Dawson and TGC to advise Raymond James promptly if any information previously provided became inaccurate or was required to be updated during the
period of Raymond James's review. Raymond James expresses no opinion with respect to the financial projections or the assumptions on which they are based. Based upon the terms specified in the merger
agreement, Raymond James assumed that the merger will qualify as a reorganization under the provisions of Section&nbsp;368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. Raymond James relied upon and assumed,
without independent verification, that the final form of the merger agreement would be substantially similar to the draft merger agreement dated October&nbsp;7, 2014 reviewed by Raymond James in all
respects material to its analysis, and that the merger would be consummated in accordance with the terms of the merger agreement without waiver of or amendment to any of the conditions thereto.
Furthermore, Raymond James assumed, in all respects material to its analysis, that the representations and warranties of each party contained in the merger agreement were true and correct and that
each party will perform all of the covenants and agreements required to be performed by it under the merger agreement without being waived. Raymond James also relied upon and assumed, without
independent verification, that (i)&nbsp;the transaction would be consummated in a manner that complies in all respects with all applicable international, federal, state and provincial statutes,
rules and regulations, and (ii)&nbsp;all governmental, regulatory or other consents and approvals necessary for the consummation of the merger would be obtained and that no delay, limitations,
restrictions or conditions would be imposed or amendments, modifications or waivers made that would have an effect on the merger or Dawson that would be material to its analysis or opinion. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Raymond
James expressed no opinion as to the underlying business decision to effect the merger, the structure or tax consequences of the merger, or the availability or advisability of
any alternatives to the merger. The Raymond James opinion is limited to the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the exchange ratio as is described above. Raymond James expressed no opinion
with respect to any other reasons (legal, business, or otherwise) that may support the decision of the Dawson board of directors to approve or consummate the merger. Furthermore, no opinion, counsel
or interpretation was intended by Raymond James on matters that require legal, accounting or tax advice. Raymond James assumed that such opinions, counsel or interpretations had been or would be
obtained from appropriate professional sources. Furthermore, Raymond James relied, with the consent of Dawson, on the fact that Dawson was assisted by legal, accounting and tax advisors, and, with the
consent of
Dawson relied upon and assumed the accuracy and completeness of the assessments by Dawson and its advisors, as to all legal, accounting and tax matters with respect to Dawson and the merger. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
formulating Raymond James's opinion, Raymond James considered only what it understands to be the shares to be received by the holders of Dawson common stock pursuant to the exchange
ratio giving effect to the 1-for-3 reverse stock split with respect to TGC common stock, and Raymond James did not consider, and its opinion did not address, the fairness of the amount or nature of
any compensation to be paid or payable to any of the officers, directors or employees of Dawson, or such class of persons, in connection with the transaction whether relative to the exchange ratio or
otherwise. Raymond James was not requested to opine as to, and its opinion did not express an opinion as to or otherwise address, among other things: (1)&nbsp;the fairness of the merger to the
holders of any class of securities, creditors or other constituencies of Dawson, or to any other party, except and only to the extent expressly set forth in the last sentence of its opinion or
(2)&nbsp;the fairness of the merger to any one class or group of Dawson's or any other party's security holders or other constituents vis-&agrave;-vis any other class or group of Dawson's or
such other party's security holders or other constituents (including, without limitation, the allocation of any consideration to be received in the merger amongst or within such classes or groups of
security holders or other constituents). Raymond James expressed no opinion as to the impact of the merger on the solvency or viability of Dawson or TGC or the ability of Dawson or TGC to pay their
respective obligations when they come due. </FONT></P>

Raymond James applied the minimum and maximum relative valuation multiples for enterprise value to 2014E and 2015E revenue (less reimbursables) and EBITDA for both Dawson and TGC to
determine a range of implied enterprise values for each company respectively. Raymond James then adjusted the implied enterprise values by subtracting out each company's debt, preferred stock and
minority interests and adding back cash, cash equivalents and short term investments to arrive at a range of implied equity values for each company respectively. Raymond James then divided the implied
equity values by the share counts provided by Dawson and TGC management as of October&nbsp;7, 2014, to arrive at a range of implied prices per share for each company respectively. Based on the
implied prices per share, Raymond James determined the implied minimum and maximum exchange ratios for
Dawson common stock and compared those results to the exchange ratio. The results of this are summarized below: </FONT></P>

incomplete view of the process underlying its opinion. In addition, Raymond James considered the results of all such analyses and did not assign relative weights to any of the analyses, but rather
made qualitative judgments as to significance and relevance of each analysis and factor, so the ranges of valuations resulting from any particular analysis described above should not be taken to be

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
performing its analyses, Raymond James made numerous assumptions with respect to industry performance, general business, economic and regulatory conditions and other matters, many of
which are beyond the control of Dawson. The analyses performed by Raymond James are not necessarily indicative of actual values, trading values or actual future results which might be achieved, all of
which may be significantly more or less favorable than suggested by such analyses. Such analyses were provided to the Dawson board of directors (solely in its capacity as such) and were prepared
solely as part of the analysis of Raymond James of the fairness of the exchange ratio in the merger pursuant to the merger agreement, from a financial point of view, to the holders of Dawson common
stock. The analyses do not purport to be appraisals or to reflect the prices at which companies may actually be sold, and such estimates are inherently subject to uncertainty. The opinion of Raymond
James was one of many factors taken into account by the Dawson board of directors in making its determination to approve the merger. Neither Raymond James' opinion nor the analyses described above
should be viewed as determinative of the Dawson board of directors' or TGC management's views with respect to Dawson, TGC or the merger. Dawson placed no limits on the scope of the analysis performed,
or opinion expressed, by Raymond James. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Raymond James opinion was necessarily based upon market, economic, financial and other circumstances and conditions existing and disclosed to it on October&nbsp;8, 2014, and any
material change in such circumstances and conditions may affect the opinion of Raymond James, but Raymond James does not have any obligation to update, revise or reaffirm that opinion. Raymond James
relied upon and assumed, without independent verification, that there had been no change in the business, assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or prospects of
Dawson since the respective dates of the most recent financial statements and other information, financial or otherwise, provided to Raymond James that would be material to its analyses or its
opinion, and that there was no information or any facts that would make any of the information reviewed by Raymond James incomplete or misleading in any material respect. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During
the two years preceding the date of Raymond James' written opinion, Raymond James has not been engaged by, performed services for or received any compensation from Dawson (other
than any
amounts that were paid to Raymond James under the engagement letter described in this proxy statement pursuant to which Raymond James was retained as a financial advisor to Dawson to assist in
reviewing strategic alternatives). </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Raymond
James received a fee of $350,000 for the delivery of its opinion. Raymond James will also receive a transaction fee of $900,000, which fee is contingent upon closing of the
merger, for its services as financial advisor. Dawson agreed to reimburse Raymond James for certain of its expenses incurred in connection with its services and to indemnify Raymond James and certain
of its affiliates against certain liabilities arising out of its engagement. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Raymond
James is actively involved in the investment banking business and regularly undertakes the valuation of investment securities in connection with public offerings, private
placements, business combinations and similar transactions. In the ordinary course of business, Raymond James may trade in the securities of Dawson and TGC for its own account and for the accounts of
its customers and, accordingly, may at any time hold a long or short position in such securities. Raymond James may provide investment banking, financial advisory and other financial services to
Dawson and/or TGC or other participants in the merger in the future, for which Raymond James may receive compensation. </FONT></P>

all material respects. Stephens is not a legal, accounting, regulatory or tax expert and has relied solely, and without independent verification, on the assessments of TGC and its other advisors with
respect to such matters. Stephens has assumed, with TGC's consent, that the merger will not result in any materially adverse legal, regulatory, accounting or tax consequences for TGC. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
opinion was necessarily based on economic, market and other conditions as in effect on, and information available to Stephens, as of October&nbsp;8, 2014. It should be understood
that subsequent developments may affect Stephens' opinion and that Stephens does not have any obligation to update, revise or reaffirm its opinion. Stephens has assumed that the merger will be
consummated on the terms of the latest draft of the merger agreement provided to Stephens without material waiver or modification. Stephens has assumed that in the course of obtaining the necessary
regulatory, lending or
other consents or approvals (contractual or otherwise) for the merger, no restrictions, including any divestiture requirements or amendments or modifications, will be imposed that would have a
material adverse effect on the contemplated benefits of the merger to TGC. Stephens is not expressing any opinion herein as to the price at which the common shares or any other securities of TGC will
trade following the announcement of the merger. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Stephens'
opinion is for the use and benefit of the TGC board of directors for the purposes of its evaluation of the merger. Stephens' opinion does not address the merits of the
underlying decision by TGC to engage in the merger, the merits of the merger as compared to other alternatives potentially available to TGC or the relative effects of any alternative transaction in
which TGC might engage, nor is it intended to be a recommendation to any person as to how to vote in connection with the merger. In addition, except as explicitly set forth in its opinion, TGC has not
asked Stephens to address, and Stephens' opinion does not address, the fairness to, or any other consideration of, the holders of any class of securities, creditors or other constituencies of TGC.
Stephens has not been asked to express any opinion, and does not express any opinion, as to the fairness of the amount or nature of the compensation to any of TGC's officers, directors or employees,
or to any group of such officers, directors or employees, relative to the compensation to other shareholders of TGC. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> Summary of Stephens' Analyses  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In preparing its opinion, Stephens performed a variety of financial and comparative analyses. The preparation of a fairness opinion is
a complex process involving various determinations as to the most appropriate and relevant quantitative and qualitative methods of financial analysis and the applications of those methods to the
particular circumstances and, therefore, is not necessarily susceptible to partial analysis or summary description. Stephens believes that its analyses must be considered as a whole. Considering any
portion of Stephens' analyses or the factors considered by Stephens, without considering all analyses and factors, could create a misleading or incomplete view of the process underlying the conclusion
expressed in Stephens' opinion. In addition, Stephens may have given various analyses more or less weight than other analyses, and may have deemed various assumptions more or less probable than other
assumptions, so that the range of valuations resulting from any particular analysis described below should not be taken to be Stephens' view of TGC's or Dawson's actual value. Accordingly, the
conclusions reached by Stephens are based on all analyses and factors taken as a whole and also on the application of Stephens' own experience and judgment. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
performing its analyses, Stephens made numerous assumptions with respect to industry performance, general business, economic, monetary, regulatory, market and other conditions and
other matters, many of which are beyond TGC's and Stephens' control. The analyses performed by Stephens are not necessarily indicative of actual values or actual future results, which may be
significantly more </FONT></P>

summarized below include information presented in tabular format. In order to fully understand Stephens' financial analyses, the table must be read together with the text of each summary. The tables
alone do not constitute a complete description of the financial analyses. Considering the data described below without considering the full narrative description of the financial analyses, including
the methodologies and assumptions underlying the analyses, could create a misleading or incomplete view of Stephens' financial analyses. No company or transaction used in the analyses described below
is directly comparable to TGC, Dawson, the business combination, or the contemplated combined company. The analyses performed and data presented herein incorporates the effect of the 1-for-3 reverse
stock split of TGC common shares immediately prior to closing of the merger with Dawson. The below analyses did not take into account potential synergies that could result from the business
combination. </FONT></P>

price per share one day, one week and one month prior to announcement of the transaction. Stephens compared the mean, median, maximum and minimum premium for those periods as well as considered mean
and median premium consideration for transactions with a stock component. Because the premiums analyzed for the overall market transactions were relatively consistent with premiums paid for
transactions involving primarily companies in the oilfield services industry, the table below focuses on the results in the transactions involving primarily companies in the oilfield services
industry. The results of the transaction premiums analysis of such transactions are summarized below: </FONT></P>

expertise and reputation. Stephens is a nationally recognized investment banking and advisory firm. Stephens, as part of its investment banking business, is regularly engaged in the
valuation of businesses and securities in connection with mergers and acquisitions, negotiated underwritings, competitive biddings, secondary distributions of listed and unlisted securities, private
placements, financial restructurings and other financial services. In the ordinary course of business, Stephens may, for its own account and the accounts of its customers, actively trade the
securities of TGC or Dawson and, accordingly, may hold a long or short position in such securities. During the last two years, Stephens has not provided investment banking or any other services to TGC
or Dawson for which it received compensation. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Stephens
acted as financial advisor to the board of directors of TGC in connection with the business combination, and TGC agreed to pay Stephens fees of up to $1,000,000, including
reimbursements to Stephens for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, for its services. A portion of the fee was paid at the commencement of its engagement, additional sums were paid both upon
delivery of the opinion and upon filing of the necessary shareholder approval documents. A portion of the fee is contingent on consummation of the business combination. In addition, TGC has agreed to
indemnify Stephens for certain liabilities that may arise out of the engagement. </FONT></P>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As of December&nbsp;29, 2014, there were 8,077,580 shares of Dawson common stock, outstanding stock options to acquire up to 91,150 shares of Dawson common stock, 75,575 Dawson
restricted stock units, 21,997,007 shares of TGC common stock and outstanding stock options to acquire up to 839,267 shares of TGC common stock outstanding. Based on such number of shares and options
outstanding, and after giving effect to the proposed 1-for-3 reverse stock split with respect to TGC common stock immediately prior to the merger, there would be an aggregate of approximately
21.6&nbsp;million shares of TGC common stock outstanding after completion of the merger, of which approximately 66% of those outstanding shares would be held by current Dawson shareholders and the
remaining approximate 34% would be held by current TGC shareholders.

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Although TGC is the legal acquirer and will issue shares of its common stock to effect the merger with Dawson, if the business
combination is completed, it will be accounted for as an acquisition of TGC by Dawson using the "acquisition" method of accounting. TGC will record net tangible and identifiable intangible assets
acquired and liabilities assumed from Dawson at their respective fair values at the date of the completion of the merger. Any excess of the purchase price, which will equal the market value of the
aggregate amount of TGC common stock issued pursuant to the merger agreement on the date of the completion of the merger, plus any cash paid in lieu of fractional shares, over the net fair value of
such assets and liabilities will be recorded as goodwill. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
financial condition and results of operations of TGC after completion of the merger will reflect Dawson's balances and results after completion of the merger but will not be restated
retroactively to reflect the historical financial condition or results of operations of Dawson. The earnings of TGC following the completion of the merger will reflect acquisition accounting
adjustments, including the effect of changes in the carrying value for assets and liabilities on depreciation and amortization expense. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and goodwill will
not be amortized but will be
tested for impairment at least annually, and all assets including goodwill will be tested for impairment when certain indicators are present. If in the future, TGC determines that tangible or
intangible assets (including goodwill) are impaired, TGC would record an impairment charge at that time. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, TGC entered into employment agreements, effective as of the effective time of the
merger, substantially in the form attached as Annex&nbsp;F to this joint proxy statement/prospectus, with the following key employees: Stephen C. Jumper, Dawson's Chairman, President and Chief
Executive Officer, to become the Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of TGC following the merger; Wayne A. Whitener, TGC's current President and Chief Executive Officer, to become the Vice
Chairman of TGC following the merger; C. Ray Tobias, Dawson's current Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, to serve in the same capacity for TGC following the merger; James K. Brata,
TGC's current Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, to serve in the same capacity for TGC following the merger; Christina W. Hagan, Dawson's current Executive Vice President, Chief
Financial Officer and Secretary, to become the Executive Vice President, Chief Accounting Officer and Secretary of TGC following the merger; James&nbsp;W.&nbsp;Thomas, Dawson's current Executive
Vice President and Chief Technology Officer, to serve in the same capacity for TGC following the merger; and Daniel G. Winn, TGC's current Executive Vice President, to become Senior Vice President of
TGC following the merger. These employment agreements are each for three-year terms. These employment agreements were entered into on October&nbsp;8, 2014 in connection with the execution of the
merger agreement, but will only be effective upon the effective time of the merger. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Each
employment agreement establishes each key employee's annual base salary and provides that such base salary may be reviewed annually by TGC following the merger and may be adjusted
in the sole discretion of the board of directors of TGC. The annual base salary of each of Messrs.&nbsp;Jumper, Whitener, Tobias, Brata, Thomas and Winn pursuant to their respective employment
agreement will be $462,000, $350,000, $315,000, $250,000, $230,000 and $235,000, respectively, and the annual salary for Ms.&nbsp;Hagan will be $250,000, which is the same as their current annual
salaries with TGC or Dawson (as applicable). The employment agreements also reflect each such executive's post-merger duties and title. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
addition, pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, TGC will, as of the effective time of the merger, enter into restated indemnification agreements with each of the eight
members of the board of directors of TGC following the merger and each of the named executive officers party to an employment agreement with TGC. The form of such indemnification agreements is
attached as Annex&nbsp;I to, and incorporated by reference into, this joint proxy statement/prospectus. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Such
indemnification agreements provide that TGC will indemnify and advance certain expenses to each of the indemnitees to the fullest extent permitted by Texas and other applicable law
in effect as of the date of execution of a particular indemnification agreement and to such greater extent as Texas and other applicable law may thereafter from time to time permit. Pursuant to the
terms of the indemnification agreement, TGC will (1)&nbsp;indemnify each of the indemnitees against certain expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement, attorneys' fees and

<FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On December&nbsp;22, 2014, Dawson received a letter dated December&nbsp;18, 2014 from legal counsel for a purported shareholder of
Dawson demanding that the board of directors of Dawson take appropriate legal action against the following persons in connection with the proposed merger: Stephen C. Jumper, Tim C. Thompson, Gary M.
Hoover, Mark A. Vander Ploeg, Ted R. North and Craig W. Cooper, all of whom are members of the current board of directors of Dawson. The letter alleges conflicts of interest on the part of certain
officers and directors of Dawson in connection with the merger, Dawson disclosure deficiencies with respect to the proposed merger and the negotiations leading to the merger agreement and breaches of
fiduciary duties by such persons in connection with such matters. The letter also demands that Dawson make various corrective disclosures concerning the proposed merger. Pursuant to Section 21.554 of
the the TBOC, the Dawson board of directors intends to form a special committee consisting of certain of Dawson's outside directors, which committee will be authorized to retain independent legal
counsel, in order to investigate the claims made in such letter and to make a recommendation concerning the same to the full Dawson board of directors.

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>The following summary describes the material provisions of the merger agreement. The provisions of the merger
agreement are complicated and not easily summarized. This summary may not contain all of the information about the merger agreement that is important to you. This summary is qualified in its entirety
by reference to the merger agreement attached as Annex&nbsp;A to, and incorporated by reference into, this joint proxy statement/prospectus. We encourage you to read the merger agreement carefully
in its entirety for a more complete understanding of the merger agreement.</I></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</FONT><FONT
SIZE=2><I>The merger agreement has been included to provide you with information regarding its terms and the transactions described in this joint proxy
statement/prospectus. Neither Dawson nor TGC intends that the merger agreement will be a source of business or operational information about Dawson or TGC. The merger agreement contains
representations and warranties that Dawson and TGC have made to each other. Those representations and warranties are qualified in several important respects, which you should consider as you read them
in the merger agreement. In particular, in your review of the representations and warranties, it is important to bear in mind that the representations and warranties were made solely for the benefit
of the parties to the merger agreement and were negotiated for the purpose of allocating contractual risk among the parties rather than to establish matters as facts. The representations and
warranties may also be subject to a contractual standard of materiality or material adverse effect different from those generally
applicable to shareholders and reports and documents filed with the SEC and in some cases may be qualified by disclosures made by one party to the other, which are not necessarily reflected in the
merger agreement. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties, which do not purport to be accurate as of the date of this joint proxy
statement/prospectus, may have changed since the date of the merger agreement, and subsequent developments or new information qualifying a representation or warranty may have been included in or
incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus. Dawson and TGC will provide additional disclosure in their public reports of any material information necessary to provide their
respective shareholders with a materially complete understanding of the disclosures relating to the merger agreement.</I></FONT></P>

provided elsewhere in, or incorporated by reference into, this joint proxy statement/prospectus. See "Where You Can Find More Information" beginning on page 225.</I></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The merger agreement provides that at the effective time of the merger, subject to the other provisions of the merger agreement, each
share of Dawson common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger (including Dawson restricted stock, but excluding shares owned by Dawson, TGC or any of their
respective subsidiaries, all of which will be canceled without payment of any consideration) will be converted automatically to the right to receive a number of validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable shares of TGC common stock equal to the exchange ratio. The exchange ratio will be 1.760, which is adjusted for completion of the reverse stock split with respect to TGC common stock on
a 1-for-3 ratio immediately prior to the merger. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
refer to the number of shares of TGC common stock to be received for each share of Dawson common stock, together with any cash received in lieu of fractional shares as discussed
below, as the "merger consideration." </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>


&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Based on the number of shares of Dawson common stock outstanding (including shares of restricted stock) as of December&nbsp;29, 2014, at the effective time of the merger and after
giving effect to the 1-for-3 reverse stock split of TGC, TGC will issue, in the aggregate, approximately 14.3&nbsp;million shares of TGC common stock to Dawson shareholders.

 </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>


&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The closing price of Dawson common stock on NASDAQ on October&nbsp;8, 2014, the last full trading day prior to the public announcement of the merger, was $17.57. The closing price of
Dawson common stock on NASDAQ on December&nbsp;29, 2014, the last practicable full trading day prior to the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, was $12.11.

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;No fractional shares of TGC common stock will be issued in connection with the proposed merger. Instead, each Dawson shareholder
otherwise entitled to a fraction of a share of TGC common stock (after aggregating all fractional shares of TGC common stock issuable to that shareholder) will be entitled to receive an amount in cash
(rounded to the nearest whole cent), without interest, determined by multiplying such fraction by the closing price for a share of TGC common stock as reported on </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As of the effective time of the merger, TGC will appoint a commercial bank or trust company reasonably satisfactory to Dawson to act as
exchange agent to handle the exchange of shares of Dawson common stock and payment of cash for fractional shares and unpaid dividends. At or prior to the effective time of the merger, TGC will deposit
with the exchange agent certificates representing, or providing to the exchange agent an uncertificated book-entry for, shares of TGC common stock issuable in the merger, and TGC also will deposit
with the exchange agent immediately available funds sufficient to pay the cash in lieu of fractional shares and in respect of any dividends or distributions on TGC common stock with a record date
after the effective time of the merger. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> Exchange Procedures  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Promptly after the effective time of the merger, TGC will cause the exchange agent to mail to each holder of record of a Dawson stock
certificate or book-entry share whose shares of Dawson common stock were converted into the right to receive the merger consideration, a letter of transmittal and instructions explaining how to
surrender Dawson stock certificates or book-entry shares in exchange for the merger consideration. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;After
the effective time of the merger, and upon surrender of a Dawson stock certificate or book-entry share to the exchange agent, together with a letter of transmittal, duly executed,
and other documents as may reasonably be required by the exchange agent, a holder of Dawson stock certificates or book-entry shares will be entitled to receive the merger consideration in the form of
(1)&nbsp;one or more shares of TGC common stock which will be in uncertificated book-entry form (unless a physical certificate is requested in accordance with the merger agreement) representing, in
the aggregate, that number of whole shares of TGC common stock that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the merger agreement and (2)&nbsp;a check representing cash in lieu of fractional
shares, if any, and unpaid dividends and distributions, if any, which such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the merger agreement, after giving effect to any required withholding taxes, and
Dawson stock certificates or book entries evidencing book-entry shares so surrendered will be cancelled. No interest will be paid or will
accrue on the cash in lieu of fractional shares or unpaid dividends and distributions, if any, payable under the merger agreement to holders of Dawson common stock. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If
payment is to be made to a person other than the person in whose name a stock certificate or book-entry share surrendered is registered, the stock certificate or book-entry share so
surrendered must be properly endorsed or otherwise in proper form for transfer and the person requesting such payment must pay any transfer or other taxes required by the reason of the payment to a
person other than the registered holder of the stock certificate or book-entry share so surrendered, unless the person requesting such payment can establish to the satisfaction of TGC that such tax
has been paid or is not applicable. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At
the effective time of the merger, each certificate representing shares (or uncertificated shares in book entry form) of Dawson common stock that has not been surrendered, other than
any shares owned by Dawson, TGC or any of their respective subsidiaries, will represent only the right to receive, upon such surrender and without any interest, the merger consideration, dividends and
other distributions on shares of TGC common stock with a record date after the effective time of the merger, and cash in lieu of fractional shares. Following the effective time of the merger, no
further registrations of transfers on the stock transfer books of Dawson of the shares of Dawson common stock will be made and any stock certificates or book entry shares of Dawson common stock
presented to TGC for any reason will be cancelled and exchanged as described above. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under the merger agreement, TGC has agreed, for a period of six years after the effective time of the merger, to leave in place and not

Dawson and TGC. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Until the end of the calendar year that includes the effective time of the merger, the participants in Dawson employee benefit plans
who are employed by Dawson as of the effective time of the merger, together with their dependents, will receive employee benefits that are substantially similar in the aggregate to the employee
benefits provided to Dawson employees immediately prior to the effective time of the merger. However, neither TGC nor Dawson, as the surviving entity of the merger, is required to continue any
specific plans or to continue the employment of any specific person. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC

(3)&nbsp;eligibility, contribution and vesting under any "defined contribution plan" maintained by TGC, but not for purposes of any other employee benefit plan of TGC and (4)&nbsp;though not a

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC Industries,&nbsp;Inc., a Texas corporation, and its wholly owned subsidiary, Eagle Canada,&nbsp;Inc., a Delaware corporation,
are primarily engaged in the geophysical service business of conducting three-dimensional ("3-D") surveys for clients in the oil and gas business. TGC's principal business office is located at 101 E.
Park Blvd., Suite&nbsp;955, Plano, Texas 75074 (Telephone: 972-881-1099). TGC's internet address is www.tgcseismic.com. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
April of 1980, Supreme Industries,&nbsp;Inc. ("Supreme"), formerly ESI Industries,&nbsp;Inc., formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Tidelands Geophysical&nbsp;Co.,&nbsp;Inc.
("Tidelands") that acquired certain equipment, instruments, and related supplies from a Houston-based corporation that was engaged in the business of conducting seismic, gravity, and magnetic surveys
under contracts for oil and natural gas companies. On June&nbsp;30, 1986, the Boards of Directors of Supreme and Tidelands approved a spin-off of substantially all of the shares of Tidelands owned
by Supreme which were distributed as a stock dividend to Supreme's security holders. In July of 1986, our name was changed from "Tidelands Geophysical&nbsp;Co.,&nbsp;Inc." to "TGC
Industries,&nbsp;Inc." </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> Overview  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We are a leading provider of seismic data acquisition services throughout the continental United States and Canada. As of
December&nbsp;31, 2013, we operated eight seismic crews consisting of five crews in the United States and three crews in Canada. These seismic crews supply seismic data primarily to companies
engaged in the exploration and development of oil and natural gas on land and in land-to-water transition areas. Seismic acquisition services of our wholly-owned subsidiary, Eagle Canada,&nbsp;Inc.
("Eagle Canada") are also used by the potash mining industry in Canada, and Eagle Canada has particular expertise through its heliportable capabilities. Our customers rely on seismic data to identify
areas where subsurface conditions are favorable for the accumulation of existing hydrocarbons, to optimize the development and production of hydrocarbon reservoirs, to better delineate existing oil
and natural gas fields, and to augment reservoir management techniques. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
acquire geophysical data using the latest in 3-D survey techniques. We introduce acoustic energy into the ground by using vibration equipment or dynamite detonation, depending on the
surface terrain and subsurface requirements. The reflected energy, or echoes, is received through geophones, converted into a digital signal at a multi-channel recording unit, and then transmitted to
a central recording vehicle. Subsurface requirements dictate the number of channels necessary to perform our services. With our state-of-the-art seismic equipment, including computer technology and
multiple channels, we acquire, on a cost effective basis, immense volumes of seismic data that, when processed and interpreted, produce more precise images of the earth's subsurface. Our customers
then use our
seismic data to generate 3-D geologic models that help reduce finding costs and improve recovery rates from existing wells. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Technological advances in seismic equipment and computing allow the seismic industry to acquire and process, on a cost-effective basis,

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>of
the earth's subsurface. The latest accepted method of seismic data acquisition, processing, and the subsequent interpretation of the processed data is the 3-D seismic method. Geophysicists use
computer workstations to interpret 3-D data volumes, identify subsurface anomalies, and generate a geologic model of subsurface features. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3-D
seismic data are used in the exploration and development of new reserves and enable oil and natural gas companies to better delineate existing fields and to augment their reservoir
management techniques. Benefits of incorporating high resolution 3-D seismic surveys into exploration and development programs include reducing drilling risk, decreasing oil and natural gas finding
costs, and increasing the efficiencies of reservoir location, delineation, and management. In order to meet the requirements necessary to fully realize the benefits of 3-D seismic data, there is an
increasing demand for improved data quality with greater subsurface resolution. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Currently,
the seismic data acquisition industry is made up of a number of companies divided into two groups. The first group is made up of four publicly-traded companies with long
operating histories that field numerous crews and work in a number of different regions and terrain. This group includes us, Dawson, SAExploration Holdings,&nbsp;Inc., or SAE, and CGG (which
recently sold its North American onshore seismic contract acquisition business to Geokinetics&nbsp;Inc., or Geokinetics). The second group is made up of Geokinetics, Global Geophysical
Services&nbsp;Inc., or Global Geophysical, Tesla Exploration,&nbsp;Ltd., or Tesla, Breckenridge Geophysical&nbsp;Inc., or Breckenridge, Paragon Geophysical Services,&nbsp;Inc., or Paragon,
LoneStar Geophysical Surveys, or LoneStar, and smaller companies which generally run one or two seismic crews and often specialize in specific regions or types of operations. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
provide our seismic data acquisition services primarily to onshore oil and natural gas exploration and development companies for use in the onshore drilling and production of oil and
natural gas in the
continental United States and Canada. The main factors influencing demand for seismic data acquisition services in our industry are the levels of drilling activity by oil and natural gas companies and
the sizes of such companies' exploration and development budgets, which, in turn, depend largely on current and anticipated future crude oil and natural gas prices and depletion rates. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> Equipment and Crews  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During 2011 and 2012, an increase in the demand for seismic services allowed for an expansion of the Company's crew count from eleven
crews at December&nbsp;31, 2010, to twelve crews at December&nbsp;31, 2011, and to fourteen crews at December&nbsp;31, 2012. Demand for seismic services softened beginning early in 2013, and as
a result we decreased our crew count throughout the year, ending 2013 with eight crews. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
operated four seismic crews in the lower 48 states during the first quarter of 2014. We operated six crews in Canada for most of the first quarter, tapering down to four crews by the
end of March as the Canadian Spring break-up began. We operated four crews throughout the second quarter of 2014 in the United States. In Canada, we began the second quarter of 2014 operating four
crews, tapering down to two crews by the middle of April. At the end of April and for the rest of the second quarter, we had no crews operating in Canada. We operated five crews throughout the third
quarter of 2014 in the United States. In Canada, we had one crew operating intermittently during the 2014 third quarter. The Canadian market is seasonal, and as a result of the thawing season, we have
historically experienced limited Canadian activity for the second and third quarters of each year. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
January of 2011, the Company acquired its second new 3,000 channel OYO Geospace Seismic Recording System ("GSR System") financed by a note payable with a commercial lender. This new
GSR System uses cable-free/radio-free autonomous nodal data recorders which have a built-in&nbsp;GPS and disciplined clock. The GSR System provides for up to 30&nbsp;days of continuous data

enhanced by multiple baseline and redundant cable connections that provide seismic data acquisition services with increased reliability. In April of 2011, the Company purchased an
additional 2,500 channels with existing cash that were added to this system. In May of 2011, the Company purchased five new INOVA vibration vehicles with existing cash. In July of 2011, the Company
acquired its third new GSR System financed by a note payable to a commercial bank. The third GSR System contains 5,000 channels. In September of 2011, we purchased with existing cash an additional
5,000
channels of ARAM equipment to supplement existing ARAM systems. In October of 2011, the Company purchased two new INOVA vibration vehicles with existing cash. In November of 2011, the Company
purchased an additional 3,000 channels of GSR equipment with existing cash. In January of 2012, we purchased an additional 14,200 channels of GSR equipment financed by existing cash and a note payable
to a commercial bank. In April of 2012, the Company purchased seven new INOVA vibration vehicles with existing cash. Also in April of 2012, the Company purchased 13,000 channels of GSR equipment
financed partially with existing cash and partially by a note payable to a commercial bank. In October of 2012, we purchased 8,000 stations of 3-channel GSX wireless recording system along with all
peripheral equipment. GSX wireless recording systems are the most current GSR wireless recording systems available. The purchase of the OYO Geospace GSX recording system equipment was financed
partially with existing cash and partially by a note payable to a commercial bank. Beginning early in 2013, we experienced a softening in demand for seismic services and, as a result, the Company
adopted a maintenance capital expenditures program curtailing large equipment purchases for the duration of the year and continuing into August 2014. In September 2014 we purchased a 10,500-channel
INOVA Hawk seismic data acquisition system and financed the acquisition by issuing a $6.1&nbsp;million note. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
currently own equipment for 16 land-based seismic data acquisition crews and 73 vibration vehicles. Each crew consists of approximately 40 to 80 technicians with associated vehicles,
geophones, a seismic recording system, energy sources, cables, and a variety of other equipment. Each ARAM crew has one central recording vehicle which captures seismic data. The GSR and GSX crews
utilize a recorder to manage the data acquisition while the individual system captures and holds the data until they are placed in the Data Transfer Module. The data is then transferred to a CD ROM or
data tape which is delivered to a data processing center selected by the customer. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> Capital Expenditures  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We believe that it is essential to take advantage of advances in seismic technology and to commit capital to purchase and update our
equipment cost-effectively. Purchasing and updating seismic equipment and technology involves a commitment to capital spending. We also tie our capital expenditures closely to demand for our services.
As a result, due to softening in demand for seismic services beginning early in 2013, the Company adopted a maintenance capital expenditures program curtailing large equipment purchases for the
duration of 2013 and continuing into August 2014. During the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2013, we made capital expenditures of approximately $2,475,000, primarily to maintain existing equipment.
During the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2012, capital expenditures of approximately $57,108,000 were used to acquire, maintain, and replace seismic equipment and vehicles. Major purchases in 2012
included our fourth GSR System with 7,200 channels, our fifth GSR System with 7,000 channels, our sixth GSR System with 13,000 channels, some of which were added to existing systems, an 8,000 station
3-channel GSX wireless recording system, and seven new INOVA vibration vehicles. During the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2011, capital expenditures of approximately $30,730,000 were used to acquire,
maintain, and replace seismic equipment and vehicles. Major purchases in 2011 included our second GSR System with 3,000 channels to which we added an additional 2,500 channels, our third GSR System
with 5,000 channels, an additional 3,000 GSR System channels which were added to existing systems, 5,000 additional ARAM channels, and seven new INOVA vibration vehicles. In September 2014 we
purchased a 10,500-channel INOVA Hawk seismic data acquisition system. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> Customers  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our customers are major and independent oil and natural gas exploration and development companies. The services we provide to our
customers vary according to the size and needs of each customer. Our services are marketed by supervisory and executive personnel who contact customers to determine their needs and respond to customer
inquiries regarding the availability of crews. Contacts are based principally upon professional relationships developed over a number of years. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During
2013, our largest customer accounted for approximately 12% of revenues. During 2012, our largest customer accounted for approximately 16% of revenues. During 2011, our largest
customer accounted for approximately 17% of revenues. At December&nbsp;31, 2013 and December&nbsp;31, 2012, our backlog was approximately $52&nbsp;million and $81&nbsp;million, respectively.
We filled our 2012 backlog during fiscal 2013, and anticipate filling our 2013 backlog during fiscal year 2014. Due to our backlog, we would not expect the loss of any single customer to have a
material adverse effect on our operations. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
order to avoid potential conflicts of interest with our customers, we do not participate in oil and natural gas ventures. The results of a seismic survey conducted for a customer
belong to that customer. All of our customers' information is maintained in strictest confidence. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> Contracts  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our contracts are obtained either through competitive bidding or as a result of customer negotiations. Our services are conducted under
general service agreements for seismic data acquisition services which define certain obligations for us and for our customers. A supplemental agreement setting forth the terms of a specific project,
which may be cancelled by either party upon 30&nbsp;days' advance written notice, is entered into for every project. We currently operate under supplemental agreements that are either "turnkey"
agreements providing for a fixed fee to be paid to us for each unit of data acquired or "term" agreements providing for a fixed hourly, daily, or monthly fee during the term of the project or
projects. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> Competition  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The acquisition of seismic data for the oil and natural gas industry is a highly competitive business. Contracts for such services
generally are awarded on the basis of price quotations, crew experience, and the availability of crews to perform in a timely manner, although factors other than price, such as crew safety,
performance history, and technological and operational expertise, are often determinative. Our competitors include companies with financial resources that are significantly greater than our own as
well as companies of comparable and smaller size. Our competition includes publicly-traded competitors, such as Dawson, CGG (which recently sold its North American onshore seismic contract acquisition
business to Geokinetics) and SAE. Our other major competitors include Geokinetics, Global Geophysical, Tesla, Breckenridge, Paragon and LoneStar. In addition to these previously named companies, we
also compete for projects from time to time with smaller seismic companies which operate in local markets with only one or two crews. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> Employees  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As of December&nbsp;31, 2013, we employed a total of 653 full-time employees, of which 32 consisted of management, sales, and
administrative personnel with the remainder being crew and crew support personnel. We believe our relationship with our employees to be satisfactory. </FONT></P>

do not carry insurance against certain risks that we could experience such as business interruption resulting from equipment maintenance or weather delays. We obtain insurance against
certain property and personal casualty risks and other risks when such insurance is available and when our management considers it advisable to do so. Currently, our insurance coverage consists of
employers' liability with limits of $1,000,000 per accident and $2,000,000 in the aggregate, commercial general liability of $1,000,000 per accident and $2,000,000 in the aggregate, pollution
liability of $1,000,000 per accident and $2,000,000 in the aggregate, automobile liability with a $1,000,000 combined single limit, and a $20,000,000 umbrella policy. Our general service agreements
require us to have specific amounts of insurance. Management believes that the Company's insurance coverage is adequate. There can be no assurance, however, that any insurance obtained by us will be
adequate to cover any losses or liabilities, or that this insurance will continue to be available or available on terms which are acceptable to us. Liabilities for which we are not insured, or which
exceed the policy limits of our applicable insurance, could have a material adverse effect on us. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
December&nbsp;27, 2012, the Company paid its first cash dividend of $0.15 per common share to shareholders of record at the close of business on December&nbsp;17, 2012. The
Company did not pay a cash dividend in 2013. On May&nbsp;14, 2013 and on May&nbsp;14, 2012 the Company paid 5% stock dividends to shareholders of record at the close of business on
April&nbsp;30, 2013 and April&nbsp;30, 2012, respectively. No cash or stock dividends were declared or paid in 2011. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> Executive Overview  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We are a leading provider of seismic data acquisition services throughout the continental United States and Canada. We supply seismic
data to companies engaged in the exploration and development of oil and natural gas on land and in land-to-water transition areas. Our customers rely on seismic data to identify areas where subsurface
conditions are favorable for the accumulation of existing hydrocarbons, to optimize the development and production of hydrocarbon reservoirs, to better delineate existing oil and natural gas fields,
and to augment reservoir management techniques. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
acquire geophysical data using the latest in 3-D survey techniques. We introduce acoustic energy into the ground by using vibration equipment or dynamite detonation, depending on the
surface terrain and subsurface requirements. The reflected energy, or echoes, is received through geophones, converted into a digital signal at a multi-channel recording unit, and then transmitted to
a central recording vehicle. Subsurface requirements dictate the number of channels necessary to perform our services. With our state-of-the-art seismic equipment, including computer technology and
multiple channels, we acquire, on a cost-effective basis, immense volumes of seismic data that when processed and interpreted produce more precise images of the earth's subsurface. Our customers then
use our
seismic data to generate 3-D geologic models that help reduce finding costs and improve recovery rates from existing wells. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
provide our seismic data acquisition services primarily to major and independent onshore oil and natural gas exploration and development companies for use in the onshore drilling and
production of oil and natural gas in the continental United States and Canada. The main factors influencing demand for seismic data acquisition services in our industry are the projected level of
drilling activity by oil and natural gas companies and the sizes of such companies' exploration and development budgets, which, in turn, depend largely on current and anticipated future crude oil and
natural gas prices and depletion rates. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
services we provide to our customers vary according to the size and needs of each customer. Our services are marketed by supervisory and executive personnel who contact customers to
determine their needs and respond to customer inquiries regarding the availability of crews. Contacts are based principally upon professional relationships developed over a number of years. There are
a number of consultants in the oil and natural gas industry who process and interpret seismic data for oil and natural gas companies. These companies can have an influence in determining which company
their customers use to acquire seismic data. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
acquisition of seismic data for the oil and natural gas industry is a highly competitive business. Contracts for such services generally are awarded on the basis of price quotations,
crew experience, and the availability of crews to perform in a timely manner, although other factors, such as crew safety, performance history, and technological and operational expertise, are often
determinative. Our competitors include companies with financial resources that are significantly greater than our own as well as companies of comparable and smaller size. Our primary competitors are
Dawson, CGG (which recently sold its North American onshore seismic contract acquisition business to Geokinetics) and SAE. These competitors are publicly traded companies with long operating histories
that field numerous crews and work in a number of different regions and terrain. Our other major competitors include Geokinetics, Global Geophysical, Tesla, Breckenridge, Paragon and LoneStar. In
addition to the previously named companies, we also compete for projects from time to time with smaller seismic companies which operate in local markets with only one or two crews and often specialize
in specific regions or types of operation. We believe that our long-term industry expertise, the customer relationships developed over our history, and our financial stability give us an advantage
over most of our competitors in the industry. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I> Nine Months Ended September&nbsp;30, 2014, Compared to Nine Months Ended September&nbsp;30, 2013 (Unaudited)  </I></FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Revenues.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our revenues were $93,133,099 for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2014, compared to $115,806,689 for the same period
of 2013, a
decrease of 19.6%. This decrease was primarily due to the softening in the seismic market that began in early 2013, our operation of fewer crews in the United States and Canada during the nine months
ended September&nbsp;30, 2014 compared to the same period of 2013, and the adverse winter weather conditions in parts of the United States and Canada during the first quarter of 2014. We operated
four crews in the United States during the first and second quarters of 2014, and added one crew during the third quarter ended September&nbsp;30, 2014. In Canada, we operated six crews for most of
this year's first quarter and ended the first quarter with four crews. By late-April, all Canadian crews had been shut down following the end of the winter season. We added one crew in Canada in the
beginning of June for summer work, but that crew worked intermittently during the third quarter. This compares with our operation of nine crews in the United States and six crews in Canada during the
first quarter of 2013. We began the second quarter of 2013 with eight crews operating in the United States and ended the quarter with two crews, and began the third quarter of 2013 with three crews
operating in the United States and ended the quarter with five crews. In Canada, we began the second quarter of 2013 operating six crews and ended the quarter operating two crews. In the third quarter
of 2013, we operated three crews in Canada for short term work at the beginning of the quarter but had no crews operating in Canada by the end of the quarter. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cost of services.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our cost of services was $76,641,928 for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2014, compared to $90,011,820 for
the same
period of 2013, a decrease of 14.9%. As a percentage of revenues, cost of services was 82.3% for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2014, compared to 77.7% for the same period of 2013. This
decrease in cost of services was primarily attributable to our operation of fewer crews in the United States and Canada as discussed above. The decrease was partially offset by costs incurred due to
adverse winter weather conditions in parts of the United States and Canada during the first quarter of this year and an increase in shot-hole work, which carries higher costs and lower margins than
vibroseis work, in the United States during the third quarter. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Selling, general, and administrative expenses.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Selling, general and administrative ("SG&amp;A") expenses were $7,060,970 for the nine
months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2014, compared to $7,226,433 for the same period of 2013, a decrease of 2.3%. SG&amp;A expense as a percentage of revenues was 7.6% for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30,
2014, compared with 6.2% for the same period of 2013. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Depreciation and amortization expense.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Depreciation and amortization expense was $14,639,933 for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30,
 2014,
compared to $19,110,476 for the same period of 2013, a decrease of 23.4%. This decrease was primarily attributable to reduced spending on seismic equipment and vehicles with our implementation of a
maintenance capital expenditures program adopted early in 2013. Depreciation and amortization expense as a percentage of revenues was 15.7% for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2014,
compared to 16.5% for the same period of 2013. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Loss from operations.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Loss from operations was $5,209,732 for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2014 compared to $542,040 for the
same
period of 2013. This loss increase was primarily attributable to a decrease in revenues from fielding fewer crews in the United States and Canada and an increase, as a percentage of revenues, in cost
of services and SG&amp;A expenses. EBITDA decreased $9,138,235 to $9,430,201 for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2014, from $18,568,436 for the same period of 2013, a decrease of 49.2%. This

tax expense
of $158,537 for the same period of 2013. The income tax benefit for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2014, at a rate of 34.2%, was due primarily to our loss before
income taxes. The tax expense for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2013 was due primarily to permanent tax differences. </FONT></P>

of 2013.
The increase in revenues was primarily due to our operation of five crews in the United States during the 2014 entire third quarter. In 2013, we began the third quarter with three crews operating in
the United States and ended the quarter with five crews. The Company's Canadian operations did not contribute significantly to the overall results of the third quarter of either 2014 or 2013. </FONT></P>

increase was largely due to our operation of more crews in the United States, an increase in shot-hole work during the quarter, which carries higher costs and lower margins than vibroseis work, and
the continued softness in the seismic market. </FONT></P>

 a
decrease of 31.5%. Revenues for the 12&nbsp;months ended December&nbsp;31, 2013 decreased due to the softening in the seismic market that began early in 2013, our operation of fewer crews in the
United States and Canada during the second, third, and fourth quarters
of 2013 as compared to the same period of 2012, and severe weather conditions in many or our key markets in the United States and Canada during the fourth quarter of 2013. In 2013 in the United
States, we operated nine crews in the first quarter, began the second quarter operating nine crews and ended the second quarter operating two crews. We started the third quarter with three crews and
ended the quarter operating five crews which we continued operating during the fourth quarter of 2013. In Canada, we operated six crews in the first quarter of 2013, began the second quarter operating
six crews, and ended the quarter operating two crews. We operated no crews in Canada during the third quarter of 2013 and started and ended the fourth quarter operating three crews. This compares to
2012 when we operated eight seismic crews in the United States during the first and second quarters, added a ninth crew in the third quarter, and continued operating nine crews during the fourth

increase of 30.0%. Approximately 74% of the increase in revenues was attributable to continued improvement in the North American land seismic acquisition market and increased efficiencies of new

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
also understand that EBITDA is used by investors to assess our performance. However, EBITDA is not a measure of operating income, operating performance, or liquidity presented in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. When assessing our operating performance or our liquidity, you should not consider this data in isolation or as a substitute for our net
income, cash flow from operating activities, or other cash flow data calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect net
income and operating income, and these measures may vary among other companies. Therefore, EBITDA as presented below may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Further, the
results presented by EBITDA cannot be achieved without incurring the costs that the measure excludes: interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization expense. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Net cash provided by operating activities was $19,709,387 for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2014, compared to $23,907,216
for the same period of 2013. The $4,197,829 decrease in cash flow from operating activities during the first nine months of 2014 from the same period of 2013 was principally attributable to a higher
net loss, decreases in depreciation expense, trade accounts receivable, and cost and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted
contracts, which were partially offset by a decrease in prepaid federal and state income tax and increases in, accounts payable, billings in excess of cost and estimated earnings on uncompleted
contracts and income taxes payable. </FONT></P>

cash provided by operating activities was $22,969,342 for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2013, compared to $39,283,062 for the same period of 2012. The $16,313,720 decrease was
principally attributable to a net loss of $6,316,041 in 2013 as compared to net income of $15,671,879 for the same period in 2012. The timing of billings and revenue recognition, the collections of
accounts receivable, the timing of receipt and payment of invoices, federal and state income taxes payable, depreciation and amortization, and the mix of contracts account for the remainder of the
decrease. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Working

decreases of $1,756,513 in accounts receivable and, $3,909,198 in prepaid federal and state income taxes, and increases of $3,196,798 in accounts payable, and $1,878,055 in billings in excess of cost

increases in cash and cash equivalents of $7,516,130 and $3,909,198 in prepaid federal and state income taxes, and decreases of $9,582,719 in trade accounts payable, $2,958,078 in accrued liabilities,

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2014, we acquired $7,516,313 of vehicles and equipment, which included the purchase
in September 2014 of a 10,500-channel INOVA Hawk seismic data acquisition system and the additions to and replacement of similar vehicles and equipment. We financed these acquisitions by using a
$6,096,173 note payable to a commercial bank to finance the INOVA Hawk system mentioned above, $1,258,607 of cash on hand and by incurring $161,533 in capital lease obligations from a vehicle leasing
company. Although we do not budget for our capital expenditures, we may purchase additional equipment during 2014 should the demand for our services increase. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Early
during the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2013 we adopted a maintenance capital expenditures program and incurred capital expenditures of $2,474,865, primarily to maintain existing
equipment. During the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2012, capital expenditures of $57,107,732 were used to acquire seismic equipment and vehicles, replace similar equipment and vehicles, and to
purchase our fourth and fifth GSR systems consisting of a total of 14,200 channels and related equipment, our sixth GSR system with 13,000 channels, our first next-generation 3-channel GSX system with
8,000 stations, and seven new INOVA vibration vehicles. Cash of $31,970,418, notes of $22,201,800 from a commercial bank, and capital lease obligations from a vehicle leasing company of $2,935,514
were used to finance these acquisitions. This major investment should continue to bring us the benefits of these new technologies
and allow us to be in a cash building mode in 2014. We may, however, purchase additional equipment during 2014 as the demand for our services warrants. </FONT></P>

we believe that we have sufficient available cash and borrowing capacity to fund our working capital needs over the next 12&nbsp;months. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I> Capital Resources  </I></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Historically, we have relied on cash generated from operations, short-term borrowings from commercial banks and equipment lenders, and
loans from directors to fund our working capital requirements and capital expenditures. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
have a revolving line of credit agreement with a commercial bank, pursuant to which we may borrow up to $5,000,000. The credit agreement was renewed for a one-year term on each of
September&nbsp;16, 2012, 2013 and 2014 and will expire on September&nbsp;16, 2015. We intend to renew the revolving credit agreement prior to its expiration. Our obligations under this agreement
are secured by a security interest in our accounts receivable. Interest on the outstanding amount under the revolving credit agreement is payable monthly at the greater of the prime rate of interest
or five percent. As of September&nbsp;30, 2014, we had no borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit agreement. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At
September&nbsp;30, 2014, we had four outstanding notes payable to commercial banks for equipment purchases. The notes have interest rates between 3.50% and 4.60%, are due in monthly
installments between $128,363 and $215,863 plus interest, have a total outstanding balance of $14,198,824 and are collateralized by equipment. One note payable with interest of 6.35% and monthly
payments of $50,170
including interest was paid off in February 2013, and one note payable with interest of 5.00% and monthly payments of $59,581 including interest was paid off in September 2013. One note payable with
interest of 5.00% and monthly payments of $82,950 plus interest was paid off in December 2013, and one note payable with interest of 4.50% and monthly payments of $187,934 plus interest was paid off
in August 2014. These notes were collateralized by equipment. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
also had three outstanding notes payable to finance companies for corporate insurance at September&nbsp;30, 2014. The notes have interest rates between 4.00% and 4.95%, are due in
monthly installments between $18,831 and $326,366 including interest, and have a total outstanding balance of $1,328,174. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our
Houston sales office is in a 1,711-square foot facility. The monthly rent is currently $3,422. Our corporate office in Plano, Texas was increased from 8,523 square feet to 10,137
square feet of office space in March of 2012. The monthly rent is currently $15,206. We leased an 800-square foot facility in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, as a sales office on a month-to-month basis, and
the monthly rent was $665. This office was closed on October&nbsp;31, 2013. We lease a 400-square foot facility in Pratt, Kansas, as a permit office on a month-to-month basis, and the current
monthly rent is $500. In October of 2012, we expanded our Denison, Texas repair warehouse facility with the addition of a third 10,000-square foot building. The Denison, Texas, facility consists of
one 5,000-square foot building, three 10,000-square foot adjacent buildings, and an outdoor storage area of approximately 60,500&nbsp;square feet. The monthly rent is currently $14,438. We lease a
915-square foot office facility in Midland, Texas, as a sales office with a monthly rent of $1,296. Upon the acquisition of Eagle Canada, we assumed a lease for 3,030 square feet of office space
located in Calgary, Alberta. The monthly rent is currently $11,922. In addition, Eagle Canada leases a 10,088-square foot facility, also located in Calgary, Alberta, that is used as a shop and
warehouse. The monthly rent is currently $7,479. We also lease a storage and parking area adjacent to the Eagle Canada shop and warehouse. The monthly rent is currently $4,768. The Company is not
responsible for insuring these facilities. The conditions of these facilities are good, and we believe that these properties are suitable and adequate for our foreseeable needs. </FONT></P>

believe that our capital resources, including our short-term investments, funds available under our revolving credit agreement, and cash flow from operations, will be adequate to meet
our current operational needs. We believe that we will be able to finance our 2014 capital expenditures through cash flow from operations, borrowings from commercial lenders, and the funds available
under our revolving credit agreement. However, our ability to satisfy working capital requirements, meet debt repayment obligations, and fund future capital requirements will depend principally upon
our future operating performance, which is subject to the risks inherent in our business, and will also depend on the extent to which the current economic climate adversely affects the ability of our

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make certain assumptions and estimates that affect

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company provides seismic data acquisition survey services to its customers under general service agreements which define certain
obligations for the Company and for its customers. We typically enter into a supplemental agreement setting forth the terms of each project, which may be cancelled by either party upon 30&nbsp;days'
advance written notice. These supplemental agreements are either "turnkey" agreements providing for a fixed fee to be paid for each unit of seismic data acquired or "term" agreements providing for a
fixed hourly, daily, or monthly fee during the term of the project. Under both types of agreements, the Company recognizes revenues when services have been performed and revenue is realizable.
Services are defined as the commencement of data acquisition. Revenues are deemed realizable when earned according to the terms of the contracts. Under turnkey agreements, the total number of units of
seismic data to be gathered is set forth in the agreement. Revenue under turnkey agreements is recognized on a per unit of seismic data acquired rate as services are performed. Revenue under term
agreements is recognized on a per unit of time worked rate as services are performed based on the time worked rate provided in the term agreement. In the event of a cancelled contract, revenue is
recognized and the client is billed for services performed to the date of contract cancellation. When it becomes evident that the estimates of total costs to be incurred on a contract will </FONT></P>

subsidiary from the local currency. These changes in foreign currency rates may never be realized or may only be partially realized upon the ultimate disposition, if any, of the international
subsidiary. The Company's foreign investment is considered permanent in nature as there are no plans in the foreseeable future for divestiture. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I> Business Combinations  </I></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We allocate the purchase price of acquired companies to the tangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and intangible assets
acquired, based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over these fair values is recorded as goodwill. We engage independent third-party appraisal firms to assist us in
determining the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I> Allowance for Doubtful Accounts  </I></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We prepare our allowance for doubtful accounts receivable based on our past experience of historical write-offs, our current customer
base, and our review of past due accounts. The inherent volatility of the energy industry's business cycle can cause swift and unpredictable changes in the financial stability of our customers. In
2013, 2012 and 2011, no allowances were necessary. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I> Impairment of Long-lived Assets  </I></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We review long-lived assets for impairment when triggering events occur suggesting deterioration in the assets' recoverability or fair
value. Recognition of an impairment charge is required if future expected net cash flows are insufficient to recover the carrying value of the asset. Our forecast of future cash flows used to perform
impairment analysis includes estimates of future revenues and profitability based on our historical results and analysis of future oil and natural gas prices which are fundamental to assessing demand
for our services. If we are unable to achieve these
cash flows, our estimates will be revised which could result in an impairment charge for the period of revision. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I> Depreciable Lives of Property, Plant, and Equipment  </I></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our property, plant, and equipment are capitalized at historical cost and depreciated over the useful life of the asset. Our estimate
of this useful life is based on circumstances that exist in the seismic industry and information available at the time of the purchase of the asset. The technology of the equipment used to gather data
in the seismic industry has historically evolved such that obsolescence does not occur quickly. As circumstances change and new information becomes available, these estimates could change. We amortize
these capitalized items using the straight-line method. Capital assets are depreciated over their useful lives ranging from one to seven years, depending on the classification of the asset. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I> Tax Accounting  </I></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We account for our income taxes in accordance with the recognition of amounts of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and
an asset and liability approach in
recognizing the amount of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns. We determine deferred
taxes by identifying the types and amounts of existing temporary differences, measuring the total deferred tax asset or liability using the applicable tax rate, and reducing the deferred tax asset by
a valuation allowance if, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Our methodology for recording income taxes
requires judgment regarding assumptions and the use of estimates, including determining our annual effective tax rate and the valuation of deferred tax assets, which can create a variance between
actual results and estimates and could have a material impact on our provision or benefit for income taxes. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I> Share-Based Compensation  </I></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We recognize the fair value of the stock-based compensation awards, including stock options and restricted stock, as wages in the
consolidated statements of earnings on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the related stock options or restricted stock awards. This has resulted in the recognition of compensation
expense, relative to stock-based awards, in wages in the consolidated statements of earnings of approximately $973,000 or approximately $0.04 per share for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2013, and
$601,000 or approximately $0.03 per share for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2012. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shares
of restricted stock were issued to employees of the Company under the 2006 Stock Awards Plan as follows: 18,000 in August of 2007; 10,000 in June of 2008; 5,000 in July of 2009;
5,000 in May of 2010; 25,331 in November of 2011; 21,520 in December of 2011; 6,000 in January of 2012; 213,125 in August of 2012; and 6,000 in February of 2013. In June of 2013, 45,000 shares were
rescinded from the August 2012 grant, and 30,000 shares were issued in their place. In addition, stock options were issued to employees of the Company under the 2006 Stock Awards Plan as follows:
335,000 in October of 2008; 135,000 in November of 2009; and 15,000 in November of 2011. No incentive stock options were granted to employees in 2010, 2012, or 2013. As of December&nbsp;31, 2013,
there was approximately $389,000 of unrecognized compensation expense related to our share-based compensation plan. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In July of 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No.&nbsp;2012-02, </FONT> <FONT SIZE=2><I>Intangibles&#151;Goodwill and
Other (Topic 350)&#151;Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2> ("ASU 2012-02"). This ASU
provides entities with an option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether events or circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is
impaired. If an entity concludes that it is more than 50% likely that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is not impaired, no further analysis is required. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>However,
if an entity concludes otherwise, it would be required to determine the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset to measure the amount of actual impairment, if any, as currently
required under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S.&nbsp;GAAP"). The ASU is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning
after September&nbsp;15, 2012. We adopted this update in the first quarter of 2013, and it did not have a significant effect on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
July of 2013, the FASB issued ASU No.&nbsp;2013-11, </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Income Taxes (Topic 740)&#151;Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating
Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2> ("ASU 2013-11"). ASU 2013-11 clarifies the balance sheet presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit
and was issued to resolve the diversity in practice that had developed in the absence any specific U.S.&nbsp;GAAP. ASU 2013-11 is applicable to all entities that have an unrecognized tax benefit due
to a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, of a tax credit carryforward. The ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after
December&nbsp;15, 2013, and does not create any new disclosure requirements. We adopted ASU 2013-11 on January&nbsp;1, 2014, and it did not have a significant effect on our consolidated financial
statements. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No.&nbsp;2014-09, </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Revenue (Topic 606)</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&#151;</FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Revenue from Contracts with
Customers</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2> ("ASU 2014-09"). ASU 2014-09 supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S.&nbsp;GAAP and establishes a comprehensive revenue recognition
standard for virtually all industries, including those that previously followed industry-specific guidance. The revenue standard's core principle is built on the contract between a vendor and a
customer for the provision of goods and services. It attempts to depict the exchange of rights and obligations between the parties in the pattern of revenue recognition based on the consideration to
which the vendor is entitled. Three basic transition methods are available&#151;full retrospective, retrospective with certain practical expedients, and a cumulative effect approach. Under the
third alternative, an entity would apply the new revenue standard only to contracts that are incomplete under legacy U.S.&nbsp;GAAP at the date of initial application
(</FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>i.e.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>, January&nbsp;1, 2017) and recognize the cumulative effect of the new standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings.
That is, prior years would not be restated and additional disclosures would be required to enable users of the financial statements to understand the impact of adopting the new standard in the current
year compared to prior years that are presented under legacy U.S.&nbsp;GAAP. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December&nbsp;15, 2016, including interim periods therein.
Early adoption is prohibited. We will adopt ASU 2014-09 on January&nbsp;1, 2017. We will begin evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements
and have not yet determined the method by which we will adopt the standard in 2017. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> Overview of Compensation  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The responsibilities of the Compensation Committee include establishing and implementing the Company's overall executive compensation
philosophy. The Company's Chief Executive Officer recommends the compensation and bonuses for senior management, and the Board makes the final determination of the bonus amounts for all of the named
executive officers. Throughout this Information About TGC, the individuals who served as the Company's Chief Executive Officer and President, Executive Vice President, and Vice President, Chief
Financial Officer, Secretary, and Treasurer during 2013, included in the Summary Compensation Table, are referred to as the "named executive officers." </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> Compensation Philosophy and Objectives  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The primary objectives of our compensation policy are to build shareholder value and recognize the contributions each executive makes
to the Company's success. In setting compensation levels, the Compensation Committee has established the following compensation philosophy and objectives for the Company's executive
officers: </FONT></P>

officers, with those of the shareholders.</B></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;The Compensation Committee believes it is appropriate to tie a portion of executive
compensation to the value of the common stock in order to more closely align the interests of executive officers with the interests of the shareholders. The Compensation Committee also believes that
executives should have a meaningful ownership interest in the Company and has established and regularly reviews executive stock ownership.  </FONT> <FONT SIZE=2>

executives based on performance. The Compensation Committee believes that compensation paid to executives should closely align their performance with the performance of the Company on both a
short-term and long-term basis.  </FONT> <FONT SIZE=2>

</UL>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Compensation Committee reviews the Company's compensation philosophy and objectives each year to determine if revisions are necessary in light of market conditions, the Company's
strategic goals, or other relevant factors. The Company's Chief Executive Officer, who is also a member of the Board, does not serve as a member of the Compensation Committee, but does participate in
setting executive compensation other than his own. The Compensation Committee reviews the individual performance of each executive officer and the financial performance of the Company. The
Compensation Committee also takes into account salary levels, bonus plans, stock incentive plans, and other compensation packages made available to executive officers of companies of similar size and
nature. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Compensation Committee uses a variety of compensation elements to reach its compensation objectives, including current salary, bonus opportunity, and long term equity-based
incentives, all of which are discussed in detail below. Specifically, the Compensation Committee believes that executive compensation should include the following three
components: </FONT></P>

</UL>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Compensation Committee reviews and approves, on an annual basis, annual compensation for executive officers, which compensation consists of base salary and bonus (discussed below).
The Compensation Committee may request additional information and analysis and ultimately determines in its discretion whether to approve any recommended changes in compensation. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> Annual Base Salary  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company pays its executive officers a base salary to remain competitive in the market. The base salaries are less performance-based
than the annual cash bonuses and long-term equity-based incentives. During 2013, the base salaries of Messrs.&nbsp;Winn and Brata were increased to make them competitive in the market. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> Annual Cash Bonus Opportunity  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In order to provide incentives for future annual performance, the Company believes that a meaningful portion of certain executive
officers' and other key employees' compensation should be in the form of a cash incentive bonus. Cash incentive bonus payments are discretionary and are based primarily on the executive officer's
contribution to the Company's profitability over the applicable performance measurement periods. The Company believes that profitability is the most useful measure of management's effectiveness in
creating value for the shareholders of the Company. The Company's policy is to set aside in a bonus pool a portion of its pre-tax profit as determined by the Company's Chief Executive Officer and
approved by the Board. No specific formula is used in making such bonus determinations to the individuals eligible to participate in the bonus pool, but senior management recommends to the
Compensation Committee the allocation of the bonus pool based on each employee's contribution to the Company's profitability during the year. In measuring each employee's contribution to the Company's
profitability, the Compensation Committee relies on personal qualitative factors (such as effective leadership and communication) rather than quantitative performance goals of the Company (such as
specific revenue or earnings targets). </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Messrs.&nbsp;Whitener,
Winn, and Brata are the three named executive officers who were eligible for annual cash bonuses under the Company's bonus plan in 2013. The Compensation
Committee determined to award Mr.&nbsp;Whitener a cash bonus of $200,000 in January 2014, and Messrs.&nbsp;Winn and Brata cash bonuses of $50,000 each in December 2013. These bonuses were paid out
of the bonus pool based on each named executive officer's contributions to the Company's 2013 profitability, as measured using the personal qualitative factors considered by the Compensation
Committee. The bonus received by Mr.&nbsp;Whitener is determined by the Board of Directors (other than Mr.&nbsp;Whitener) based upon the results of the Company's operations for the preceding year.
The bonuses received by Messrs.&nbsp;Winn and Brata are determined by the Board of Directors (including Mr.&nbsp;Whitener). </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company believes that the best way to align the interests of the executive officers and its shareholders is for such officers to

objective and to retain its executives, the Company grants equity-based awards to the executive officers under its 2006 Stock Awards Plan. On August&nbsp;7, 2012, the Company granted
Mr.&nbsp;Whitener 30,000 shares of restricted common stock, Mr.&nbsp;Winn 13,125 shares of restricted common stock, and Mr.&nbsp;Brata 13,125 shares of restricted common stock. On
January&nbsp;1, 2013, 25,000 shares of restricted common stock for Mr.&nbsp;Whitener vested, and 4,375 shares of restricted common stock vested for each of Messrs.&nbsp;Winn and Brata. On
January&nbsp;1, 2014, 2,625 shares of restricted common stock for Mr.&nbsp;Whitener vested. On January&nbsp;1, 2014, 4,593 of restricted common stock vested for each of Messrs.&nbsp;Winn and
Brata. On January&nbsp;1, 2015, the remaining 2,625 shares of restricted common stock for Mr.&nbsp;Whitener will vest. On January&nbsp;1, 2015, the remaining 4,593 shares of restricted common
stock for each of Messrs.&nbsp;Winn and Brata will vest. The equity-based awards were granted to the executive officers based upon the results of the Company's operations for 2012. In 2013 there
were no long term equity based awards to executive officers of the Company. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company provides limited perquisites to executive officers, including the named executive officers, in order to facilitate the
successful achievement of their and the Company's performance. These perquisites include car allowances and insurance premiums. In addition, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer
receives additional perquisites related to certain club memberships and tax preparation services. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> Medical and Other Welfare Benefits  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company's executives, along with all other employees, are eligible to participate in medical, dental, vision, life, accidental
death and disability, long-term disability, short-term disability, 401(k) plan matches, and any other employee benefit made available to employees. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> Employment Agreements  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Board of Directors has determined that it is appropriate to reinforce and encourage the continued attention and dedication of the
Company's President and Chief Executive Officer to his assigned duties without distraction in potential circumstances arising from the possibility of a change in control of the Company. Accordingly,
on April&nbsp;13, 2012, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr.&nbsp;Whitener that provides for the payment of certain compensation if Mr.&nbsp;Whitener's employment with the
Company is terminated under one of the circumstances described in the agreement other than for cause, for good reason, or following a change in control of the Company. See definitions of "cause,"
"good reason" and "change in control" in the Executive Compensation section under "Discussion Regarding Summary Compensation Table and Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table&#151;Employment
Contract." The Company considers the compensation that would be payable under the agreement upon termination in such cases to be appropriate in light of the industry in which it is engaged and the
uncertain length of time necessary to find new employment, including the assurance of severance and benefits for Mr.&nbsp;Whitener upon termination. See "Executive Compensation&#151;Potential
Payments. Upon Termination or Change in Control" for information about estimated payments and benefits that would be paid to Mr.&nbsp;Whitener in such event. The level of payments and benefits
provided under Mr.&nbsp;Whitener's employment agreement are considered appropriate. These benefits are recognized as part of the total compensation package and are reviewed periodically, but are not
specifically considered by the Compensation Committee when making changes in base salary, annual incentive compensation, or long-term incentive compensation. The Company does not have severance
agreements with named executive officers other than in connection with Mr.&nbsp;Whitener's employment agreement. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In June 2013, the Company held a shareholder advisory vote on the compensation of its named executive officers as described in the 2013
Proxy Statement, commonly referred to as a say-on-pay vote. The shareholders approved the named executive officers' compensation, with approximately 68% of the shares present in person or represented
by proxy and entitled to vote at the annual meeting voting in favor of the 2013 say-on-pay resolution. As the Company evaluated its compensation practices and talent needs throughout 2013, it was
mindful of the support shareholders expressed for its pay for performance compensation philosophy. As a result, following its annual review of executive compensation, the Compensation Committee
decided to maintain a consistent approach to executive compensation with an emphasis on long-term incentive compensation that rewards senior executives for delivering value for shareholders. In
addition, the Compensation Committee considered ways to strengthen the pay for performance culture at the Company. In determining how often to hold a shareholder advisory vote on executive
compensation, the Board of Directors took into account the strong preference for an annual vote. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I> Employment Contract  </I></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On April&nbsp;13, 2012, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Employment Contract (the "Restated Employment Contract")
with Mr.&nbsp;Whitener. The term of the Restated Employment Contract is effective from March&nbsp;1, 2012 to February&nbsp;28, 2015, with the option to renew for successive one-year terms. Under
the Restated Employment Contract, Mr.&nbsp;Whitener will receive: (1)&nbsp;a minimum base salary of $350,000 per year; and (2)&nbsp;an annual performance bonus of up to 100% of his annual base
salary then in effect if approved by the Board of Directors. Pursuant to the Restated Employment Contract, upon termination of Mr.&nbsp;Whitener by the Company other than for "cause," or if
Mr.&nbsp;Whitener terminates the Restated Employment Contract for "good reason," Mr.&nbsp;Whitener will receive the remaining portion of his base salary through February&nbsp;28, 2015, plus his
proportionate share of the performance bonus. In addition, Mr.&nbsp;Whitener will receive payments related to his Company automobile and key employee deferred compensation benefits. Pursuant to the
Restated Employment Contract, if Mr.&nbsp;Whitener is terminated by the Company for "cause," or if he terminates his employment for other than "good reason," Mr.&nbsp;Whitener will not receive any
future payments under the Restated Employment Contract other than any amounts accrued to him as of the date of termination. In the event of a "change in control" of the Company that results in the
termination of Mr.&nbsp;Whitener's employment by the Company without "cause" or by Mr.&nbsp;Whitener for "good reason," Mr.&nbsp;Whitener will receive a lump sum payment equal to 2.99 times his
then present annual base salary. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Restated Employment Contract contains a confidentiality provision that is effective during and after Mr.&nbsp;Whitener's employment with the Company and a non-competition provision
that is effective for a minimum of one year after the termination of his employment for any reason (including termination resulting from a "change in control" of the Company). </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"Cause"
is generally defined as Mr.&nbsp;Whitener's (i)&nbsp;absence from the Company's offices for any successive period of 61 business days or for a total of 90 business days in
any one of the Company's fiscal years, (ii)&nbsp;commission of an act of gross negligence in the performance of his duties or obligations under the Restated Employment Contract,
(iii)&nbsp;commission of any act of fraud, malfeasance, disloyalty, or breach of trust against the Company, or failure to observe any covenant in the Restated Employment Contract,
(iv)&nbsp;refusal, or substantial inability, to perform the duties assigned to him pursuant to the Restated Employment Contract, (v)&nbsp;death or affirmative indication in writing that he no
longer intends to abide by the terms of the Restated Employment Contract, or (vi)&nbsp;acts of moral turpitude or dishonesty in the Company's affairs, gross insubordination or the equivalent, or </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The 2006 Stock Awards Plan originally became effective on March&nbsp;30, 2006 and was amended effective April&nbsp;12, 2010. The
2006 Stock Awards Plan provides for the granting of stock options, common stock, and restricted stock, and authorizes the issuance of 3,000,000 shares of common stock. A maximum of 80,000 shares may
be granted in any one year in the form of any award to any one participant, of which a maximum of (i)&nbsp;50,000 shares may be granted to a participant in the form of stock options and
(ii)&nbsp;30,000 shares may be granted to a participant in the form of restricted stock. Employees (including any employee who is also a director or an officer), consultants, and outside directors
of the Company or its subsidiaries whose judgment, initiative, and efforts contributed to or may be expected to contribute to the successful performance of the Company are eligible to participate in
the 2006 Stock Awards Plan. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under
the 2006 Stock Awards Plan, all awards vest upon a change in control. "Change in control" means any of the following, except as otherwise provided herein: (i)&nbsp;any
consolidation, merger, or share exchange of the Company in which the Company is not the continuing or surviving corporation or pursuant to which shares of the Company's common stock would be converted
into cash, securities, or other property, other than a consolidation, merger, or share exchange of the Company in which the holders of the Company's common stock immediately prior to such transaction
have the same proportionate ownership of common stock of the surviving corporation immediately after such transaction; (ii)&nbsp;any sale, lease, exchange, or other transfer (excluding transfer by
way of pledge or hypothecation) in one transaction or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; (iii)&nbsp;the shareholders of the Company approve
any plan or proposal for the liquidation or dissolution of the Company; (iv)&nbsp;the cessation of control (by virtue of their not constituting a majority of directors) of the Board by the
individuals (the "Continuing Directors") who (x)&nbsp;at the date of the 2006 Stock Awards Plan were directors or (y)&nbsp;become directors after the date of the 2006 Stock Awards Plan and whose
election or nomination for election by the Company's shareholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then in office who were directors at the date of the 2006 Stock Awards
Plan or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved; (v)&nbsp;the acquisition of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule&nbsp;13d-3 under the 1934 Act) of an
aggregate of 50% or more of the voting power of the Company's outstanding voting securities by any person or group (as such term is used in Rule&nbsp;13d-5 under the 1934 Act) who beneficially owned
less than 50% of the voting power of the Company's outstanding voting securities on the date of the 2006 Stock Awards Plan; </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>provided</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>, </FONT> <FONT SIZE=2><I>however</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>, that
notwithstanding the foregoing, an acquisition shall not constitute a change in control under the 2006 Stock Awards Plan if the acquirer is
(x)&nbsp;a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company and acting in such capacity, (y)&nbsp;a subsidiary of the Company or a corporation owned,
directly or indirectly, by the shareholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of voting securities of the Company or (z)&nbsp;any other person whose acquisition
of shares of voting securities is approved in advance by a majority of the Continuing Directors; or (vi)&nbsp;in a Title 11 </FONT></P>

 <P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company entered into the Restated Employment Contract with Mr.&nbsp;Whitener on April&nbsp;13, 2012. Pursuant to the terms of
the Restated Employment Contract, the Company may be required to make certain payments to Mr.&nbsp;Whitener upon the occurrence of certain events resulting in Mr.&nbsp;Whitener's termination. For
a detailed description of the events that may trigger such payments, see "Compensation Information&#151;Discussion Regarding Summary Compensation Table and Grants of Plan-Based Awards
Table&#151;Employment Contract." </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
2006 Stock Awards Plan provides for vesting of a participant's awards upon a change in control, the participant's death or the participant's total and permanent disability. If any of
such events had occurred as of December&nbsp;31, 2013, restricted stock granted to Messrs.&nbsp;Whitener, Winn and Brata would have vested having a market value of $38,325, $67,065 and $67,065,
respectively. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Restated Employment Contract contains a confidentiality provision that is effective during and after Mr.&nbsp;Whitener's employment with the Company and a non-competition provision
that is effective for a minimum of one year after the termination of his employment for any reason (including termination resulting from a "change in control" of the Company). </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Pursuant
to the Restated Employment Contract, upon termination of Mr.&nbsp;Whitener by the Company other than for "cause," or if Mr.&nbsp;Whitener terminates the Restated Employment
Contract for "good reason," Mr.&nbsp;Whitener will receive the remaining portion of his base salary through February&nbsp;28, 2015 in
a lump sum, plus his proportionate share of the performance bonus. In addition, Mr.&nbsp;Whitener will receive payments related to his Company automobile and key employee deferred compensation
benefits. Pursuant to the Restated Employment Contract, if Mr.&nbsp;Whitener is terminated by the Company for "cause," or if he terminates his employment for other than "good reason,"
Mr.&nbsp;Whitener will not receive any future payments under the Restated Employment Contract other than any amounts accrued to him as of the date of termination. In the event of a "change in
control" of the Company that results in the termination of Mr.&nbsp;Whitener's employment by the Company without "cause" or by Mr.&nbsp;Whitener for "good reason" within 90&nbsp;days of the
change in control, Mr.&nbsp;Whitener will receive a lump sum payment equal to 2.99 times his then present annual base salary. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;See
the definitions of "cause," "good reason" and "change in control" set forth in "Executive Compensation&#151;Discussion Regarding Summary Compensation Table and Grants of
Plan-Based Awards Table&#151;Employment Contract." </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Pursuant
to the 2006 Stock Awards Plan, upon a change in control, all unvested awards shall vest. See the definition of "change in control" set forth in "Compensation
Information&#151;Discussion Regarding Summary Compensation Table and Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table&#151;2006 Stock Awards Plan." </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;To
describe the payments and benefits that are triggered for each event of termination, we have created the following table estimating the payments and benefits that would be paid to
Mr.&nbsp;Whitener under each element of our compensation program assuming that Mr.&nbsp;Whitener's Restated Employment Contract terminated and/or there was a change in control on
December&nbsp;31, 2013, the last day of our 2013 fiscal year. In all cases, the amounts were valued as of December&nbsp;31, 2013, based upon, where applicable, an estimated fair value of our
common stock of $7.30 per share. The amounts in the following table are calculated as of December&nbsp;31, 2013 pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission rules and are not intended to reflect
actual payments that may be made. Actual payments that may be made will be based on the dates and circumstances of the applicable event. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On January&nbsp;18, 2008, the Company borrowed $2,602,075 from Rumson-Fair Haven Bank&nbsp;&amp; Trust, which was later acquired by
1st&nbsp;Constitution Bank (the "Bank"). Additionally, on June&nbsp;5, 2012, the Company borrowed an aggregate of $7,500,000 from several lenders in a syndicated transaction, $2,500,000 of which
was loaned by the Bank. Messrs.&nbsp;Barrett and Gardner, who served as directors of the Company, also served as directors of the Bank. Mr.&nbsp;Barrett's term ended as Chairman of the Board and
director in June, 2012 and Mr.&nbsp;Gardner's term ended in May, 2013. Mr.&nbsp;Barrett owned approximately 13% of the equity of the Bank, and Mr.&nbsp;Gardner owned approximately 1.5% - 2% of
the equity of the Bank, prior to its acquisition by 1st&nbsp;Constitution Bank on February&nbsp;7, 2014. The 2008 loan had an interest rate of 6.35% and was paid off on February&nbsp;1, 2013.
During 2013, the Company paid $243,327 in interest and $2,437,920 in principal on the 2012 loan, which bears interest at 4.60%. The Board believes that the terms of the 2012 loan are the same as would
have resulted from arms-length negotiations with an unrelated third party. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It
is the Company's policy that the Audit Committee or the entire board of directors approve or ratify transactions involving directors, executive officers, or principal shareholders, or
members of their immediate families or entities controlled by any of them, or in which they have a substantial ownership interest in which the amount involved exceeds $120,000 and that are otherwise
reportable under Securities and Exchange Commission disclosure rules. Management advises the Audit Committee on a regular basis and seeks their approval of any such transaction that is proposed to be
entered into or continued. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It is a condition to the closing of the merger that Baker Botts and Haynes and Boone deliver opinions, dated as of the date of closing,
to Dawson and TGC, respectively, to the effect that the merger will qualify as a "reorganization" within the meaning of Section&nbsp;368(a) of the Code. Although under the merger agreement Dawson or
TGC may waive the condition requiring the receipt of the tax opinions, neither Dawson nor TGC intends to waive this closing condition. If either Dawson or TGC waives the condition, and the resulting
change in tax consequences to Dawson shareholders would be material, Dawson and TGC have undertaken to recirculate this joint proxy statement/prospectus or a supplement thereto and resolicit proxies. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Each
tax opinion (including the discussion herein) is (or in the case of each tax opinion delivered at closing will be) based on certain representations made by Dawson, Merger Sub and
TGC, including factual representations and certifications contained in officers' certificates delivered by Dawson, Merger Sub and TGC. Each such tax opinion assumes (or in the case of each tax opinion
delivered at closing will assume) that each of the representations and certifications is true, correct and complete without regard to any knowledge or other limitation. If any of the representations,
certifications or assumptions relied upon in the tax opinions (including the discussion herein) is inaccurate, incomplete or untrue, the tax opinions (including the discussion herein) may not be
relied upon. Accordingly, if any of these representations or assumptions are inconsistent with the actual facts, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the merger could be adversely affected. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;An
opinion of counsel represents counsel's best legal judgment and is not binding on the IRS or any court. No ruling has been, or will be, sought from the IRS as to the tax consequences
of the merger. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not disagree with or challenge the conclusions set forth in the tax opinions (including the discussion herein) or that a court
would not sustain such a challenge. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Based
upon the foregoing, Baker Botts, tax counsel to Dawson, and Haynes and Boone, tax counsel to TGC, are of the opinion that (1)&nbsp;the merger will qualify for U.S. federal income
tax purposes as a "reorganization" within the meaning of Section&nbsp;368(a) of the Code and (2)&nbsp;a U.S. holder whose Dawson common stock is exchanged in the merger for TGC common stock will
not recognize gain or loss in the merger, except with respect to cash, if any, received in lieu of a fractional share of TGC common stock. In such case, (i)&nbsp;a U.S. holder's aggregate tax basis
in the TGC common stock received in the merger, including any fractional share deemed received and redeemed as described below, will equal the aggregate tax basis of the Dawson common stock
surrendered by such U.S. holder in the merger, (ii)&nbsp;a U.S. holder's holding period for the TGC common stock received in the merger will include the U.S. holder's holding period for the Dawson
common stock surrendered in the merger, and (iii)&nbsp;a U.S. holder who receives cash in lieu of a fractional share of TGC common stock in the merger will be treated as having received the
fractional share in the merger and then as having received the cash in redemption of such fractional share. As a result, such a U.S. holder should generally recognize capital gain or loss equal to the

number (in the case of individuals, their social security numbers) and otherwise complies with all applicable requirements of the backup withholding rules. To prevent backup withholding, each U.S.
holder of Dawson common stock must complete the IRS Form&nbsp;W-9 or a substitute Form&nbsp;W-9 which will be provided with the transmittal form. Any amounts withheld from payments to a U.S.
holder under the backup withholding rules are not additional tax and will be allowed as a refund or credit against the U.S. holder's U.S. federal income tax liability, provided the required
information is timely furnished to the IRS. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC can pay dividends if, as and when declared by TGC's board of directors, subject to compliance with limitations imposed by law. The

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC has authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock and common stock, and the TGC board of directors may authorize the issuance

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;So long as the TGC board of directors consists of nine (9)&nbsp;directors, it may, by resolution, divide into three equal classes. If
the TGC board of directors effects a board classification, the directors in each class will serve for a three-year term, one class being elected each year by TGC's shareholders. In addition, TGC's
amended and restated certificate of formation provides that directors may only be removed for cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of eighty percent (80%) or more of the outstanding shares of
common stock of TGC. Additionally, the provisions in the TGC amended and restated certificate of formation concerning the supermajority vote for director removal may not be amended, altered, changed
or repealed in any respect unless such action is approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of eighty percent (80%) or more of the outstanding shares of common stock of TGC. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The TGC amended and restated certificate of formation provides that the affirmative vote of the holders of eighty percent (80%) of the
outstanding shares of common stock of TGC is required for the approval or authorization of (1)&nbsp;any merger or consolidation of TGC with or into another corporation or entity or (2)&nbsp;any
sale of all or substantially all of TGC's assets to another corporation or entity. Additionally, the provisions in the TGC amended and restated certificate of formation concerning the supermajority

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The TGC amended and restated bylaws establish advance notice procedures with respect to shareholder proposals and the nomination of

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The TGC amended and restated certificate of formation provides that TGC's directors will have no personal liability to TGC or its
shareholders for monetary damages for breach or alleged breach of the directors' duties of care. This provision in the amended and restated certificate of formation does not eliminate TGC's directors'
fiduciary duties of care, and in appropriate circumstances, equitable remedies such as an injunction or other forms of non-monetary relief should remain available under Texas law. Furthermore, each of
TGC's directors continues to be subject to liability for (i)&nbsp;a breach of the director's duty of loyalty, (ii)&nbsp;acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct or
knowing violations of law, (iii)&nbsp;any transaction from which a director
derives an improper personal benefit; (iv)&nbsp;an act or omission for which the liability of a director is expressly provided by an applicable statute or (v)&nbsp;an act related to an unlawful
corporate distribution. This provision does not affect a director's responsibilities under any other laws, such as the federal securities laws or state or federal environmental laws. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC
has also entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors. Under the indemnification agreements, in exchange for the directors' service to TGC and its affiliates,
TGC has agreed to indemnify each director who is involved in any threatened, pending or completed investigation, claim, action, suit or proceeding whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative initiated against the director as a result of his service as a director and/or officer, against all expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement
actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the action. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Each of Dawson and TGC are Texas corporations. As such, the rights of Dawson and TGC shareholders are governed by the laws of the State
of Texas. Additionally, the rights of Dawson shareholders are governed by Dawson's second restated articles of incorporation and second amended and restated bylaws, as amended, and the rights of TGC
shareholders are governed by TGC's amended and restated certificate of formation and amended and restated bylaws. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;After
the merger, all Dawson shareholders will become shareholders of TGC. Accordingly, their rights will be governed by TGC's amended and restated certificate of formation and amended
and restated bylaws, as amended. While the rights and privileges of Dawson shareholders are, in many instances, comparable to those of TGC shareholders, there are some differences. These differences
arise from differences between the respective articles of incorporation and bylaws of Dawson and TGC. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
following discussion summarizes the material differences as of the date of this document between the rights of Dawson shareholders and the rights of TGC shareholders. The following
discussion is only a summary and does not purport to be a complete description of all the differences. Please consult the
respective articles of incorporation and bylaws of Dawson and TGC, each as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time and as filed with the SEC, for a more complete
understanding of these differences. See "Where You Can Find More Information" beginning on page 225. </FONT></P>

Sub with and into Dawson occurred on October&nbsp;1, 2013. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
historical financial information has been adjusted in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information to give effect to pro forma events that are
(1)&nbsp;directly attributable to the merger, (2)&nbsp;factually supportable, and (3)&nbsp;with respect to the statement of income or the statement of operations, expected to have a continuing
impact on the combined results of Dawson and TGC. All pro forma financial information uses Dawson's period-end dates and no adjustments were made to TGC's information for its different period-end
dates. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Although
TGC is the legal acquirer and is expecting to issue 14,255,220 shares of its common stock to effect the merger with Dawson, the business combination will be accounted for as a
reverse acquisition with Dawson considered the accounting acquirer. As a result, the fair value of TGC's common stock issued and outstanding as of the date of the merger will be allocated to the
underlying tangible and intangible assets and liabilities of TGC based on their respective fair values. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information was prepared in
accordance with the regulations of the SEC. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>


&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The purchase price will be determined on the basis of the fair value of common shares of TGC on the date the transaction is consummated plus the fair value of any other consideration
transferred. The estimated purchase price for this unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information was based on 7,332,336 TGC shares of common stock to be outstanding after
the 1-for-3 reverse stock split prior to the consummation of the merger and the closing price of TGC common stock as of December&nbsp;29, 2014. The estimated purchase price does not include an
estimate of cash payable to Dawson shareholders in lieu of fractional shares which is required pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, as information is not readily available to estimate such
amount. Dawson

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>anticipates
that the amount of any such cash payment will be immaterial. At this time, Dawson has not performed detailed valuation analyses to determine the fair values of TGC's assets and
liabilities, and accordingly, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information includes a preliminary allocation of the purchase price based on assumptions and estimates
which, while considered reasonable under the circumstances, are subject to changes, and such changes may be material. Additionally, Dawson has not yet performed the necessary analysis to identify all
of the adjustments that may be required to conform TGC's accounting policies to Dawson's or to identify other items that could significantly impact the purchase price allocation or the assumptions and
adjustments made in preparation of this unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information. Upon completion of detailed valuation analyses, there may be additional increases or
decreases to the recorded book values of TGC's assets and liabilities, including, but not limited to, property, plant and equipment and intangible assets that will give rise to future amounts of
depreciation and amortization expenses or credits that are not reflected in the information contained in this unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information. In addition,
the estimated purchase price itself is preliminary and will be adjusted based upon the price per share of TGC common stock on the date the merger is completed and the number of shares of TGC common
stock outstanding on the same date. Accordingly, once the necessary procedures have been performed, the final purchase price has been determined and the purchase price allocation has been completed,
actual results may differ materially from the information presented in this unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Additionally,
TGC expects to incur costs associated with integrating the operations of Dawson and TGC. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information does
not reflect the cost of any integration activities or benefits from the merger that may be derived from any integration activities, both of which could have a material effect on the results of
operations in periods following the completion of the merger. In addition, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information does not include costs directly attributable to
the transaction, employee retention costs or professional fees incurred by Dawson or TGC pursuant to provisions contained in the merger agreement, as those costs are not considered part of the
purchase price. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The merger will be accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Codification Standard ("ASC")
ASC 805, "Business Combinations." Dawson will account for the transaction by using Dawson's historical information and accounting policies and adding the assets and liabilities of TGC as of the
completion date of the merger at their respective fair values. Pursuant to ASC 805, under the acquisition method, the total estimated purchase price (consideration transferred) as described in
Note&nbsp;3, Estimate of Consideration Expected to be Transferred, will be measured at the closing date of the merger using the market price
of TGC common stock at that time. Therefore, this may result in a per share equity value that is different from that assumed for purposes of preparing these unaudited pro forma condensed combined
consolidated financial information. The assets and liabilities of TGC have been measured based on various preliminary estimates using assumptions that Dawson management believes are reasonable
utilizing information currently available. Use of different estimates and judgments could yield materially different results. Because of antitrust regulations, there are limitations on the types of
information that can be exchanged between Dawson and TGC at this time. Until the merger is completed, Dawson will not have complete access to all relevant information. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
process for estimating the fair values of identifiable intangible assets and certain tangible assets requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including estimating
future cash flows and developing appropriate discount rates. The purchase price allocation is subject to finalization of Dawson's analysis of the fair value of the assets and liabilities of TGC as of
the effective date of the merger. Accordingly, the purchase price allocation in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information is preliminary and will be adjusted upon
completion of the final valuation. Such adjustments could be material. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For
purposes of measuring the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial
information, Dawson used the guidance in ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure," which established a framework for measuring fair values. ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would
be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). Market participants are assumed to be buyers
and sellers in the principal (most advantageous) market for the asset or liability. Additionally, under ASC 820, fair value measurements for an asset assume the highest and best use of that asset by
market participants. As a result, Dawson may be required to value assets of TGC at fair value measures that do not reflect Dawson's intended use of those assets. Use of different estimates and
judgments could yield different results. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under
ASC 805, acquisition-related transaction costs (e.g.,&nbsp;investment banker, advisory, legal, valuation, and other professional fees) and certain acquisition restructuring and
related charges are not included as a component of consideration transferred but are required to be expensed as incurred. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information
does not reflect the expected realization of synergies from this transaction. Although Dawson management expects that costs savings will result from the merger, there can be no assurance that these
cost savings will be achieved. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information also does not reflect estimated restructuring and integration charges associated with the
expected cost savings. Such restructuring and integration charges will be expensed in the appropriate accounting periods following the completion of the merger. </FONT></P>

the fair value of TGC's stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units for pre-merger services. ASC 805 requires that the fair value

estimated consideration expected to be transferred reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information does not
purport to represent what the actual consideration transferred will be when the merger is completed. In accordance with ASC 805, the fair value of equity securities issued as part of the consideration
transferred will be measured on the closing date of the merger at the then-current market price. This requirement will likely result in a per share equity component different from the $6.78 assumed in
the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information and that difference may be material. The estimated consideration transferred (excluding any value associated with stock
options assumed by Dawson) would increase or decrease by any change in TGC's closing common stock price, which would, in turn, be reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated
financial information as an increase or decrease to goodwill. For example, an increase or decrease by 10% in the TGC common stock price on the date of the merger from the common stock price assumed in
these pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial statements would increase or decrease the consideration transferred by approximately $5.0 million, excluding any impact on additional
consideration related to stock options and restricted stock and restricted stock units.

 <P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
following is a discussion of the adjustments made to TGC's assets and liabilities in connection with the preparation of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated
financial information. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Property, plant and equipment</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As of the effective time of the merger, fixed assets are required to be measured at fair value, unless
those assets
are classified as held-for-sale on the acquisition date. The acquired assets can include assets that are not intended to be used or sold, or that are intended to be used in a manner other than their
highest and best use. Dawson does not have sufficient information at this time as to the specific types, nature, age, condition or location of these assets, nor does it know the appropriate valuation
premise, as the valuation premise requires a certain level of knowledge about the assets being evaluated as well as a profile of the associated market participants. All of these elements can cause
differences between fair value and net book value. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
a result of the estimated consideration expected to be transferred being less than the book value of net asset acquired at September&nbsp;30, 2014, Dawson is required to analyze the
purchase price allocation and the potential reasonableness of reflecting a bargain purchase. Upon completing this analysis, Dawson determined that the merger is not an acquisition of a distressed
business and accordingly reflected a substantial write down in the property, plant and equipment to its fair value which is reflected by the value of the consideration expected to be transferred.
Furthermore, in allocating the remainder of the purchase price to the indicated fair value of the property, plant and equipment, there is not any excess purchase price to be allocated to goodwill. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Intangible assets</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As of the effective time of the merger, intangible assets which are identifiable are required to be measured at fair
value and
these acquired assets could include assets that are not intended to be used or sold or that are intended to be used in a manner other than their highest and best use. For purposes of the unaudited pro
forma condensed combined consolidated financial information, it is assumed that all assets will be used in a manner that represents the highest and best use of those assets, but it is not assumed that
any market participant synergies will be achieved. The consideration of synergies has been excluded because they are not considered to be factually supportable, which is a required condition for these
pro forma adjustments. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
fair value of intangible assets is determined primarily using the "income approach," which requires an estimate or forecast of all the expected future cash flows either through the
use of the relief-from-royalty method or the multi-period excess earnings method. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At
this time, Dawson does not have sufficient information as to the amount, timing and likelihood of cash flows for the purposes of valuing the intangible assets. Some of the more

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><A
HREF="#bg18401a_main_toc">Table of Contents</A></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>assumptions
inherent in the development of intangible asset values, from the perspective of a market participant, include: the amount and timing of projected future cash flows (including revenue, cost
of sales, sales and marketing expenses, and working capital/contributory asset charges); the discount rate selected to measure the risks inherent in the future cash flows; and the assessment of the
asset's life cycle and the competitive trends impacting the asset, as well as other factors. However, for purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information,
Dawson used public information on other comparable acquisition transactions to estimate the fair value of the intangible assets. The intangible assets consist of a customer relationship intangible of
$1,700,000 that is expected to be amortized over a 15-year life, a trademark of $800,000 that is assumed to have an indefinite life and thus no amortization impact and backlog of $200,000 that is
expected to be expensed over a one year period. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
annual impact of the incremental amortization expense is estimated to be $113,000 per year following the merger. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;These
preliminary estimates of fair value and estimated useful life will likely be different from the final acquisition accounting, and the difference could have a material impact on the
accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information. A 20% change in the valuation of definite-lived intangible assets would cause a corresponding approximate
$23,000 increase or decrease in amortization during the first year following the merger. Once Dawson has full access to the specifics of TGC's intangible assets, additional insight will be gained that
could impact: (i)&nbsp;the estimated total value assigned to intangible assets, (ii)&nbsp;the estimated allocation of value between definite-lived and indefinite-lived intangible assets and/or
(iii)&nbsp;the estimated weighted-average useful life of each category of intangible assets. The estimated intangible asset values and their useful lives could be impacted by a variety of factors
that may become known to Dawson only upon access to additional information and/or by changes in such factors that may occur prior to the effective time of the merger. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;">


<FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Deferred income tax liabilities</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As of the effective time of the merger, adjustments will be made for deferred taxes as part of the
accounting for
the acquisition. The $7,254,000 deferred tax decrease reflects the estimated deferred tax liability impact of the acquisition on the balance sheet, primarily related to estimated fair value
adjustments for acquired tangible and intangible assets. For purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information, deferred taxes are provided at the TGC deferred
tax rate of 34.66%, which includes the U.S. federal statutory income tax
rate plus the estimated state rate at which the deferred tax items will turn in future periods. This rate does not reflect Dawson's effective tax rate, which includes other tax items, such as state
taxes, as well as other tax charges or benefits and does not take into account any historical or possible future tax events that may impact the combined company. When the merger is completed and
additional information becomes available, it is likely the applicable income tax rate will change. See Note&nbsp;6, Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet,
Item&nbsp;(f).

the

federal statutory income tax rate plus the estimated state tax rate at which the deferred tax items will turn in future periods. This rate does not reflect Dawson's effective tax rate, which includes
other tax items, such as non-deductible items, as well as other tax charges or benefits, and does not take into account any historical or possible future tax events that may impact the combined
company. When the merger is completed and additional information becomes available, it is likely the applicable income tax rate will change.

shareholders, including the election of directors. Dawson annual meetings are normally held in the month of January each year and the 2014 annual meeting was held on January&nbsp;21, 2014. If the
proposed merger is consummated during the first calendar quarter of 2015, as anticipated, Dawson shareholders will become TGC shareholders and Dawson will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of TGC, so
no annual meeting of Dawson shareholders would be necessary. If, for any reason, completion of the merger is delayed, or the merger agreement is terminated, the Dawson board of directors would then
determine whether to call for an annual meeting of Dawson shareholders for the fiscal year ended September&nbsp;30, 2014, in order to remain in compliance with the bylaws of the corporation and

As permitted by the Exchange Act, only one copy of this joint proxy statement/prospectus is being delivered to shareholders residing at the same address, unless shareholders have notified the company
whose shares they hold of their desire to receive multiple copies of the joint proxy statement/prospectus. This process, which is commonly referred to as "householding," potentially provides extra

TGC Industries,&nbsp;Inc. and Subsidiary </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of TGC Industries,&nbsp;Inc. and Subsidiary (the "Company") as of December&nbsp;31, 2013 and 2012, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December&nbsp;31, 2013. The Company's
management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of TGC Industries,&nbsp;Inc. and
Subsidiary as of December&nbsp;31, 2013 and 2012, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December&nbsp;31, 2013
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), TGC Industries,&nbsp;Inc. and Subsidiary's internal control
over financial reporting as of December&nbsp;31, 2013, based on criteria established in </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Internal Control&#151;Integrated Framework (1992)</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated March&nbsp;17, 2014 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's
internal control over financial reporting. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC Industries,&nbsp;Inc. ("TGC" or the "Company") is engaged in the geophysical services business and primarily conducts seismic surveys and sells gravity data to companies engaged in
exploration in the oil and gas industry in the U.S. and Canada. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><U>Principles
of Consolidation</U> </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of TGC Industries,&nbsp;Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Eagle Canada,&nbsp;Inc. We have
eliminated all significant intercompany accounts and transactions. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><U>Business
Combinations</U> </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
record acquisitions using the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly, have included the results of operations of acquired businesses in our
consolidated results from the date of each acquisition. We allocate the purchase price of our acquisitions to the tangible assets, liabilities, and intangible assets acquired based on their estimated
fair values. The excess purchase price over those fair values is recorded as goodwill. The fair value assigned to assets acquired is based on valuations provided by independent consultants and using
management's estimates and assumptions. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><U>Foreign
Currency</U> </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
functional currency of the Company's international subsidiary is the local currency. Local currency assets and liabilities are translated at the rates of
exchange on the
balance sheet date, and local currency revenues and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange during the period. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded directly into a separate
component of stockholders' equity and represents the only component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><U>Cash
Equivalents</U> </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturity dates of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its
accounts at financial institutions located in Texas and Alberta, Canada. The Texas bank accounts are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. The Alberta bank accounts are
insured by the Canadian Depository Insurance Corporation up to $100,000 Canadian. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><U>Trade
Accounts Receivable</U> </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Trade
accounts receivable are recorded in accordance with terms and amounts as specified in the related contracts on an ongoing basis. The Company evaluates
the collectability of accounts receivable on a specific account basis using a combination of factors including the age of the outstanding balances, evaluation of the customer's financial condition,
and discussions with relevant Company personnel and with the customers directly. An allowance for doubtful accounts or direct write-off is recorded when it is determined that the receivable may not be
collected, depending on the facts known and the probability of collection of the outstanding amount. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><U>Property
and Equipment</U> </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Property
and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
individual assets ranging from 1 to 7&nbsp;years. The depreciation expense on assets acquired under capital leases is included with depreciation expense </FONT></P>

as incurred. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><U>Long-Lived
Assets</U> </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Long-lived
assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an
asset may not be recoverable. For the purposes of evaluating the recoverability of long-lived assets, the recoverability test is performed using undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by
those assets. No impairment charge was necessary at December&nbsp;31, 2013, 2012, and 2011. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><U>Income
Taxes</U> </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of
existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, in accordance with ASC Topic 740 ("Topic 740"). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to be
applied to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is
recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax expense or benefit is the result of changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities. The components of the deferred tax
assets and liabilities are individually classified as current or non-current based on their characteristics. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of
management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Topic
740 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax
return. In accordance with Topic 740, the Company recognizes in its financial statements the impact of a tax position if that position is "more likely than not" to be sustained on audit, based on the
technical merits of the position. The Company's estimate of the potential outcome of any uncertain tax issue is subject to management's assessment of relevant risks, facts, and circumstances existing
at that time. Topic 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, and disclosure. Interest and penalties related to unrecognized
tax benefits, if any, are recorded as income tax expense. See Note&nbsp;H for further information. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>Seismic
Surveys </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company provides seismic data acquisition survey services to its customers under general service agreements which define certain obligations for the
Company and for its customers. We typically enter into a supplemental agreement setting forth the terms of each project, which may be cancelled by either party upon 30&nbsp;days' advance written
notice. These supplemental agreements are either "turnkey" agreements providing for a fixed fee to be paid for each unit of seismic data acquired or "term" agreements providing for a fixed hourly,
daily, or monthly fee during the term of the project. Under both types of agreements, the Company recognizes revenues when services have been performed and revenue is realizable. Services are defined
as the commencement of data acquisition. Revenues are deemed realizable when earned according to the terms of the contracts. Under turnkey agreements, the total number of units of seismic data to be
gathered is set forth in the agreement. Revenue under turnkey agreements is recognized on a per unit of seismic data acquired rate as services are performed. </FONT></P>

under term agreements is recognized on a per unit of time worked rate as services are performed based on the time worked rate provided in the term agreement. In the event of a cancelled
contract, revenue is recognized and the client is billed for services performed to the date of contract cancellation. When it becomes evident that the estimates of total costs to be incurred on a
contract will exceed the total estimates of revenue to be earned, an estimated loss is recognized in the period in which the loss is identifiable. The asset "Cost and estimated earnings in excess of
billings on uncompleted contracts" represents cost incurred on turnkey agreements in excess of billings on those agreements. The liability "Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on
uncompleted contracts" represents billings on turnkey agreements in excess of cost on those agreements. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Comprehensive
income is a measure of income which includes both net income and other comprehensive income or loss. Other comprehensive income or loss results
from
items deferred from recognition in the statement of earnings, which consists solely of foreign currency translation adjustments. Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is presented on the
Company's consolidated balance sheet as a part of stockholder's equity. In addition, the Company reports comprehensive income and its components in a separate statement of comprehensive income. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Foreign
currency translation income or loss represents changes in foreign currency rates used to translate the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the Company's international
subsidiary from the local currency. These changes in foreign currency rates may never be realized or may only be partially realized upon the ultimate disposition, if any, of the international
subsidiary. The Company's foreign investment is considered permanent in nature as there are no plans in the foreseeable future for divestiture. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Certain

Compensation</U> </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company has two stock-based compensation plans, which are described more fully in Note&nbsp;G. The Company recognizes the fair value of the share-based
compensation awards as wages in the Statements of Operations on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. As a result, during the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, the Company
recognized compensation expense for unvested stock options of $206,952, $283,950, and $230,167, respectively, and unvested restricted stock of $492,692, $317,109, and $28,603, respectively. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;No
incentive stock options were granted during the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2013 and 2012. For the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2011, the fair value of the single option grant
was estimated on the date of the grant using the Binomial Lattice option pricing model with the following assumptions used for the outstanding grants: risk-free interest rate of 0.40%; expected
dividend yield of 0.0%; expected life of 5.0&nbsp;years; and expected volatility of 61.0%. </FONT></P>

2012 to shareholders of record as of April&nbsp;30, 2013, and April&nbsp;30, 2012, respectively. No stock dividends were declared or paid during the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2011. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><U>Use
of Estimates</U> </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><U>Recent
Accounting Standards</U> </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
July of 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No.&nbsp;2012-02, </FONT> <FONT SIZE=2><I>Intangibles&#151;Goodwill and Other (Topic 350)&#151;Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for
Impairment</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2> ("ASU 2012-02"). This ASU
provides entities with an option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether events or circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is
impaired. If an entity concludes that it is more than 50% likely that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is not impaired, no further analysis is required. However, if an entity concludes otherwise,
it would be required to determine the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset to measure the amount of actual impairment, if any, as currently required under accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States ("U.S.&nbsp;GAAP"). The ASU is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September&nbsp;15, 2012. The
Company adopted this update in the first quarter of 2013, and it did not have a significant effect on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
July of 2013, the FASB issued ASU No.&nbsp;2013-11, </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Income Taxes (Topic 740)&#151;Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating
Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2> ("ASU 2013-11"). This ASU clarifies the balance sheet presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit and
was issued to resolve the diversity in practice that had developed in the absence any specific U.S.&nbsp;GAAP. ASU 2013-11 is applicable to all entities that have an unrecognized tax benefit due to
a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, of a tax credit carryforward. The ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December&nbsp;15,
2013, and does not create any new disclosure requirements. The Company will adopt ASU 2013-11 on January&nbsp;1, 2014. The Company anticipates that the adoption of ASU 2013-11 will not have a
significant effect on its consolidated financial statements. </FONT></P>

September of 2012, and again in September of 2013, the Company renewed its revolving line of credit allowing the Company to borrow, repay, and re-borrow,
from time to time, up to $5,000,000. Interest on the outstanding amount under the line of credit loan agreement is payable monthly at the greater of the prime rate of interest or five percent. The
credit loan agreement is secured by a security interest in our accounts receivable. As of December&nbsp;31, 2013, and since its inception, we have had no borrowings outstanding under the line of
credit loan agreement. The line of credit expires September&nbsp;16, 2014. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Outstanding
options that were not included in the diluted calculation because their effect would be anti-dilutive totaled 35,373 and 44,370 for the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2013
and 2012, respectively. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;All
share and per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect 5% stock dividends paid May&nbsp;14, 2013, and May&nbsp;14, 2012, to shareholders of record as of April&nbsp;30, 2013,
and April&nbsp;30, 2012. </FONT></P>

Compensation Plans</U> </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company currently has in effect a 2006 stock award plan (the "2006 Plan"). At the June&nbsp;11, 2010 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the shareholders
approved an increase of 2,000,000 shares of common stock for issuance under the 2006 Plan. This increased the total aggregate number of shares of common stock under the 2006 Plan to 3,000,000 shares.
The 2006 Plan provides for the granting of stock options, common stock, and restricted stock. The 2006 Plan is administered by a committee of the Board of Directors (the "Committee"). Currently the
Committee is comprised of three directors. Any stock options granted under the 2006 Plan will be exercisable as set forth in the option agreements pursuant to which they are issued, but in no event
will stock options be exercisable after the expiration of five (5)&nbsp;years from the date of grant. Outstanding options, under the 2006 Plan at December&nbsp;31, 2013, have vesting periods
ranging from the date of grant to the third annual anniversary of the grant. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During
2013, 117,611 options were granted, and 391,733 options were exercised or cancelled under the 2006 Plan. During 2012, 143,602 options were granted, and 244,445 options were
exercised or cancelled under the 2006 Plan. During 2011, 109,347 options were granted, and 80,334 options were exercised or cancelled under the 2006 Plan. Restricted stock consists of shares that are
transferred by the Company
to a participant, but are subject to substantial risk of forfeiture and to restrictions on their sale or other transfer by the participant. Any restricted stock granted or issued under the 2006 Plan
will vest as set forth in the restricted stock agreement pursuant to which it was issued or granted. The provisions of the restricted stock agreements need not be the same with respect to each
participant. In November of 2011, December of 2011, January of 2012, August of 2012, February&nbsp;1, 2013 and June&nbsp;25, 2013, the Committee granted 25,331, 21,520, 6,000, 213,125, 6,000, and
30,000 shares of restricted stock, respectively. On April&nbsp;30, 2013, the Committee rescinded 45,000 shares of restricted stock previously granted in August of 2012. The shares of restricted
stock were issued in the names of the grantees and had restrictive legends prohibiting their sales prior to vesting. Vesting periods, for restricted stock issued to date, range from at grant date to
the third annual anniversary of the grant. Upon vesting, a new certificate is issued for the vested portion without the restrictive legend. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During
the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, the Company recognized compensation expense associated with the restricted stock of $492,692, $317,109, and $28,603,
respectively. During the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, no unamortized deferred stock-based compensation was related to any employee that left the Company. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During
the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, the Company recognized compensation expense associated with unvested options of $206,952, $283,950, and $230,167,

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United
States of America ("U.S.&nbsp;GAAP") for interim financial information and the instructions to Form&nbsp;10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the financial information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. References to "we," "us," "our," "its," "TGC" or the "Company" refer to TGC Industries,&nbsp;Inc. and our
subsidiaries. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
October&nbsp;8, 2014, the Company entered into a definitive merger agreement (the "Merger Agreement") with Dawson Geophysical Company ("Dawson"), providing for the merger of Riptide
Acquisition Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company formed for the purpose of the transaction, with and into Dawson, with Dawson continuing as the surviving entity and a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company (the "Merger"). The Merger Agreement provides for Dawson shareholders to receive per share consideration of 1.760 shares of the Company's common stock after giving effect to
a 1-for-3 reverse stock split that the Company agreed to implement immediately prior to the Merger. Upon consummation of the Merger, current Dawson and TGC shareholders will own approximately 66% and
34% of the combined company, respectively, and TGC will change its name to "Dawson Geophysical Company." Closing of the Merger is anticipated during the first calendar quarter of 2015, subject to
certain approvals by holders of 66.67% of the outstanding shares of both TGC and Dawson, as well as certain other closing conditions and regulatory approvals. </FONT></P>

December&nbsp;31, 2013. There have been no material changes to these policies (including critical accounting estimates and assumptions or judgments affecting the application of those estimates and
assumptions) during the quarter ended September&nbsp;30, 2014. Certain policies have been paraphrased herein for convenience. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company provides seismic data acquisition survey services to its customers under general service agreements which define certain
obligations for the Company and for its customers. The Company typically enters into a supplemental agreement setting forth the terms of each project, which may be cancelled by either party upon
30&nbsp;days' advance written notice. These supplemental agreements are either "turnkey" agreements providing for a fixed fee to be paid for each unit of seismic data acquired or "term" agreements
providing for a fixed hourly, daily, or monthly fee during the term of the project. Under both types of agreements, the Company recognizes revenues when services have been performed and revenue is
realizable. Services are defined to begin at the commencement of data acquisition. Revenues are deemed realizable when earned according to the terms of the contracts. Under turnkey agreements, the
total number of units of seismic data to be gathered is set forth in the agreement. Revenue under turnkey agreements is recognized on a per unit of seismic data acquired rate as services are
performed. Revenue under term agreements is recognized on a per unit of time </FONT></P>

rate as services are performed based on the time worked rate provided in the term agreement. In the event of a cancelled contract, revenue is recognized and the client is billed for services
performed to the date of contract cancellation. When it becomes evident that the estimates of total costs to be incurred on a contract will exceed the total estimates of revenue to be earned, an
estimated loss is recognized in the period in which the loss is identifiable. The asset "Cost and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts" represents cost incurred on turnkey
agreements in excess of billings on those agreements. The liability "Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts" represents billings on turnkey agreements in excess of

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Comprehensive income is a measure of income which includes both net income and other comprehensive income or loss. Other comprehensive
income or loss results from items deferred from recognition in the statement of operations, which consists solely of foreign currency translation adjustments. Accumulated other comprehensive income
(loss) is presented on the Company's consolidated balance sheet as a part of shareholder's equity. In addition, the Company reports comprehensive income and its components in a separate statement of
comprehensive income. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Foreign
currency translation income or loss represents changes in foreign currency rates used to translate the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the Company's international
subsidiary from the local currency. These changes in foreign currency rates may never be realized or may only be partially realized upon the ultimate disposition, if any, of the international
subsidiary. The Company's foreign investment is considered permanent in nature as there are no plans in the foreseeable future for divestiture. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No.&nbsp;2013-11, </FONT> <FONT SIZE=2><I>Income Taxes (Topic 740)
&#151;Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward
Exists</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2> ("ASU 2013-11"). ASU 2013-11 clarifies the balance sheet presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit and was issued to resolve the
diversity in practice that had developed in the absence any specific U.S.&nbsp;GAAP. ASU 2013-11 is applicable to all entities that have an unrecognized tax benefit due to a net operating loss
carryforward, a similar tax loss, of a tax credit carryforward. The ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December&nbsp;15, 2013, and does not
create any new disclosure requirements. The Company adopted ASU 2013-11 on January&nbsp;1, 2014, and it did not have a significant effect on its consolidated financial statements. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In

standard for virtually all industries, including those that previously followed industry-specific guidance. The revenue standard's core principle is built on the contract between a vendor and a
customer for the provision of goods and services. It attempts to depict the exchange of rights and obligations between the parties in the pattern of revenue recognition based on the consideration to
which the vendor is entitled. Three </FONT></P>

transition methods are available&#151;full retrospective, retrospective with certain practical expedients, and a cumulative effect approach. Under the third alternative, an entity would
apply the new revenue standard only to contracts that are incomplete under legacy U.S.&nbsp;GAAP at the date of initial application (i.e.,&nbsp;January&nbsp;1, 2017) and recognize the cumulative
effect of the new standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. That is, prior years would not be restated and additional disclosures would be required to enable users of the
financial statements to understand the impact of adopting the new standard in the current year compared to prior years that are presented under legacy U.S.&nbsp;GAAP. ASU 2014-09 is effective for
annual periods beginning after December&nbsp;15, 2016, including interim periods therein. Early adoption is prohibited. The Company will adopt ASU 2014-09 on January&nbsp;1, 2017. The Company will
begin evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements and have not yet determined the method by which we will adopt the standard in 2017. </FONT></P>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normally recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, and
changes in financial position have been included. The results of the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire year. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted in this Form&nbsp;10-Q report pursuant
to certain rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). For further information, refer to the financial statements and the footnotes thereto included in the Company's

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Basic earnings per common share are based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock ("common shares") outstanding. Diluted earnings per share are based upon the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding and, when dilutive, common shares issuable for stock options,
warrants, and convertible securities. All earnings per common share have been adjusted for the 5% stock dividend paid on May&nbsp;14, 2013, to shareholders of record as of April&nbsp;30, 2013. </FONT></P>

Parent's management, with the participation of Parent's chief executive and financial officers, has completed an assessment of the effectiveness of Parent's internal controls over financial reporting
in compliance with the requirements of Section&nbsp;404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for the fiscal year ended December&nbsp;31, 2013, and such assessment concluded that such internal controls were
effective using the framework specified in Parent's annual report on Form&nbsp;10-K for the fiscal year ended December&nbsp;31, 2013. To the knowledge of Parent, there is no reason to believe that
its auditors and its chief executive officer and chief financial officer will not be able to give the certifications and attestations required pursuant to the rules and regulations adopted pursuant to
Section&nbsp;404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, without qualification, when next due. </FONT></P>

with us, and we have undertaken no duty or responsibility to, nor did we, independently verify any of such information. We have not made or obtained an independent appraisal of the assets or
liabilities (contingent or otherwise) of the Company or TGC. With respect to the Projections and any other information and data provided to or otherwise reviewed by or discussed with us, we have, with
your consent, assumed that the Projections and such other information and data have been reasonably prepared in good faith on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates and judgments of
management of the Company and TGC, and we have relied upon the Company and TGC to advise us promptly if any information previously provided became inaccurate or was required to be updated during the
period of our review. We express no opinion with respect to the Projections or the assumptions on which they are based. We have assumed that the final form of the Agreement will be substantially
similar to the draft reviewed by us, and that the Transaction will be consummated in accordance with the terms of the Agreement without waiver or amendment of any conditions thereto. Furthermore, we
have assumed, in all respects material to our analysis, that the representations and warranties of each party contained in the Agreement are true and correct and that each such party will perform all
of the covenants and agreements required to be performed by it under the Agreement without being waived. We have relied upon and assumed, without independent verification, that (i)&nbsp;the
Transaction will be consummated in a manner that complies in all respects with all applicable international, federal and state statutes, rules and regulations, and (ii)&nbsp;all governmental,

opinion is based upon market, economic, financial and other circumstances and conditions existing and disclosed to us as of October&nbsp;7, 2014 and any material change in such

has been no change in the business, assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or prospects of the Company and TGC since the respective dates of the most recent
financial statements and other information, financial or otherwise, provided to us that would be material to our analyses or this Opinion, and that there is no information or any facts that would make
any of the information reviewed by us incomplete or misleading in any material respect. </FONT></P>

express no opinion as to the underlying business decision to effect the Transaction, the structure or tax consequences of the Transaction or the availability or advisability of any
alternatives to the
Transaction. We provided advice to the Company and the Board with respect to the proposed Transaction. We did not, however, recommend any specific Exchange Ratio or that any specific consideration
constituted the only appropriate consideration for the Transaction. This letter does not express any opinion as to the likely trading range of TGC stock following the Transaction, which may vary
depending on numerous factors that generally impact the price of securities or on the financial condition of TGC at that time. Our opinion is limited to the fairness, from a financial point of view,
of the Exchange Ratio on the TGC Common Share Transaction Consideration to be received by the holders of the Common Shares of the Company. </FONT></P>

Furthermore, no opinion, counsel or interpretation is intended by Raymond James on matters that require legal, accounting or tax advice. It is assumed that such opinions, counsel or interpretations
have been or will be obtained from the appropriate professional sources. Furthermore, we have relied, with the consent of the Board, on the fact that the Company has been assisted by legal, accounting

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Raymond
James has been engaged to render financial advisory services to the Company in connection with the proposed Transaction and will receive a fee for such services, a substantial

the Transaction or on the conclusion reached herein. In addition, the Company has agreed to reimburse certain of our expenses and to indemnify us against certain liabilities arising out of our
engagement. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
the ordinary course of our business, Raymond James may trade in the securities of the Company and TGC for our own account or for the accounts of our customers and, accordingly, may at
any time hold a long or short position in such securities. Furthermore, Raymond James may provide investment banking, financial advisory and other financial services to the Company and/or TGC or other
participants in the Transaction in the future, for which Raymond James may receive compensation. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It
is understood that this letter is for the information of the Board of Directors of the Company (solely in each director's capacity as such) in evaluating the proposed Transaction and
does not constitute a recommendation to any shareholder of the Company regarding how said shareholder should vote on the proposed Transaction. Furthermore, this letter should not be construed as
creating any fiduciary duty on the part of Raymond James to any such party. This Opinion may not be reproduced or used for any other purpose without our prior written consent, except that this Opinion
may be disclosed in and filed with a proxy statement used in connection with the Transaction that is required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, provided that this Opinion is
quoted in full in such proxy statement. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Based
upon and subject to the foregoing, it is our opinion that, as of October&nbsp;8, 2014, the Exchange Ratio is fair, from a financial point of view, to the Shareholders. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Concurrently

Agreement</B></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>"), which provides, among other things, for (i)&nbsp;Merger Sub to be merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving entity (the

("</FONT><FONT SIZE=2><B>Company Common Stock</B></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>") (other than any Company Common Stock owned by Parent, Merger Sub or the Company or any wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company),

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;WHEREAS,
qualified persons are reluctant to serve organizations as directors or officers or in other capacities unless they are provided with adequate protection against risks of claims
and actions against them arising out of their service to and activities on behalf of such organizations; </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;WHEREAS,
the parties hereto recognize that the legal risks and potential liabilities, and the threat thereof, associated with lawsuits filed against persons serving the Company and/or
its subsidiaries, and
the resultant substantial time, expense and anxiety spent and endured in defending lawsuits bears no reasonable relationship to the compensation received by such persons, and thus poses a significant
deterrent and increased reluctance on the part of experienced and capable individuals to serve the Company and/or its subsidiaries; </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;WHEREAS,
the uncertainties related to obtaining adequate insurance and indemnification have increased the difficulty of attracting and retaining such persons; </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;WHEREAS,
Chapter&nbsp;8 of the Texas Business Organizations Code (the "</FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>TBOC</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>") of the State of Texas, under which law the Company is
organized, empowers a corporation organized in Texas to indemnify persons who serve as directors and/or officers of the corporation, or persons who serve at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise; </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;WHEREAS,
the Bylaws of the Company permit indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law; </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;WHEREAS,
it is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Company to contractually agree to indemnify such persons to the fullest extent permitted by law, so that such persons will serve
or continue to serve the Company and/or its subsidiaries free from undue concern that they will not be adequately indemnified; and </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;WHEREAS,
the Indemnitee is willing to serve, continue to serve and to take on additional service for and on behalf of the Company on the condition that the Indemnitee is indemnified
according to the terms of this Agreement; </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;WHEREAS,
this Agreement shall supersede and replace any prior agreement between the Indemnitee and the Company or its predecessors with respect to indemnification and the other matters
contained herein, including, but not limited to, that certain Indemnification Agreement dated as of&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;between the Indemnitee and

entitlement to indemnification is to be determined by a Special Legal Counsel, the Company shall furnish notice to the Indemnitee within ten days after receipt of a
claim of or request for indemnification, specifying the identity and address of the Special Legal Counsel and a certification by the Special Legal Counsel that the Special Legal Counsel has reviewed
and is in compliance with the requirements to be a Special Legal Counsel. The Indemnitee may, within seven days after receipt of such written notice of selection, deliver to the Company a written
objection to such selection. Such objection may be asserted only on the ground that the Special Legal Counsel selected does not meet the requirements of a Special Legal Counsel as defined in this
Agreement, and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis for that assertion. If there is an objection to the selection of the Special Legal Counsel, either the Company or the
Indemnitee may petition the Court for a determination that the objection is without a reasonable basis and/or for the appointment of a Special Legal Counsel selected by the Court. The Company shall
pay any and all reasonable fees and expenses of the Special Legal Counsel incurred in connection with any such determination. If a Change in Control shall have occurred, the Indemnitee shall be
presumed (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement) to be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement upon submission of a request to the Company for indemnification, and
thereafter the Company shall have the burden of proof in overcoming that presumption in reaching a determination contrary to that presumption. The presumption shall be used by the Special Legal
Counsel, or such other person or persons determining entitlement to indemnification, as a basis for a determination of entitlement to indemnification unless the Company provides information sufficient
to overcome such presumption by clear and convincing evidence or the investigation, review and analysis of the Special Legal Counsel or such other person or persons convinces him or them by clear and

determination of the Indemnitee's entitlement to indemnification to be made pursuant to this Section&nbsp;6 shall be made, and the Indemnitee shall be notified of
such determination, not later than 20&nbsp;days after receipt by the Secretary of the Company of the Indemnitee's written claim for indemnification; provided, however, that in the case of a
determination to be made by Special Legal Counsel the selection of whom is the subject of an existing objection, such determination, and the Indemnitee's notification of such determination, shall be

</UL>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TGC is incorporated under the laws of the State of Texas. The discussion below summarizes the material indemnification provisions of
TGC's amended and restated certificate of formation, amended and restated bylaws and Chapters&nbsp;7 and 8 of the TBOC. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Chapter&nbsp;8
of the TBOC requires a Texas corporation to indemnify a director, former director or delegate thereof against reasonable expenses actually incurred by such person in
connection with a proceeding in which such person is a respondent because such person is or was a director or delegate thereof if such person is wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the
defense of the proceeding. Further, Chapter&nbsp;8 of the TBOC permits a Texas corporation to indemnify a director, former director or delegate thereof who was, is, or is threatened to be made a
respondent in a proceeding against judgments and expenses that are reasonable and actually incurred by such person in connection with such proceeding if it is determined that: (1)&nbsp;such person
(a)&nbsp;acted in good faith, (b)&nbsp;reasonably believed, in the case of conduct in such person's official capacity, that such person's conduct was in the corporation's best interest and, in any
other case, that such person's conduct was not opposed to the corporation's best interests, and (c)&nbsp;in the case of a criminal proceeding, did not have a reasonable cause to believe such
person's conduct was unlawful and (2)&nbsp;with respect to expenses, the amount of such expenses is reasonable. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under
Chapter&nbsp;8 of the TBOC, indemnification of a person that is found liable to a Texas corporation or found liable because such person improperly received a personal benefit
(1)&nbsp;is limited to reasonable expenses actually incurred, (2)&nbsp;does not include a judgment, a penalty, a fine, or an excise or similar tax and (3)&nbsp;may not be made if such person has
been found liable for (a)&nbsp;willful or intentional misconduct in the performance of any duties to the corporation, (b)&nbsp;breach of any duty of loyalty owed to the corporation or
(c)&nbsp;an act or omission not committed in good faith that constitutes a breach of any duty owed by such person to the corporation. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Chapter&nbsp;8
of the TBOC permits a Texas corporation to pay or reimburse reasonable expenses incurred by a present director or delegate thereof who was, is, or is threatened to be
made a respondent in a proceeding in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding without making the required determinations after the corporation receives (1)&nbsp;a written affirmation by
such person of such person's good faith belief that the person has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification and (2)&nbsp;a written undertaking by or on behalf of such person to
repay the amount paid or reimbursed if the final determination is that the person has not met that standard or that indemnification is prohibited by Chapter&nbsp;8 of the TBOC. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Chapter&nbsp;8
of the TBOC permits a Texas corporation to indemnify and advance expenses to persons other than present or former directors, including officers, employees or agents, as
provided by the corporation's governing documents or contract, among other means, and requires that a corporation indemnify an officer to the same extent that indemnification is required under the
TBOC. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Chapter&nbsp;8
of the TBOC provides that a Texas corporation has the power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of its directors, officers, employees or agents against
liabilities (1)&nbsp;asserted against such person in his or her capacity or (2)&nbsp;arising out of his or her status as a director, officer, employee or agent of the company. A Texas corporation
has this power whether or not the corporation has the power to indemnify such person against the liability under Chapter&nbsp;8 of the TBOC. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Chapter&nbsp;7
of the TBOC provides that a certificate of formation or other governing document may provide that a director of a Texas corporation in not liable, or is liable only to
the extent provided by the certificate of formation or other governing document, to the corporation or its shareholders for monetary damages for an act or omission by such person in such person's

of TGC's amended and restated certificate of formation eliminates the personal liability for monetary damages for an act or omission of a director to the fullest

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
indemnification rights set forth above are not exclusive of any other right which an indemnified person may have or may hereafter acquire under any statute. Any repeal or amendment
of TGC's amended and restated certificate of formation by TGC's shareholders will be prospective only and will not adversely affect any limitation on the personal liability of a director arising from
an act or omission occurring prior to the time of such repeal or amendment. </FONT></P>

Brata, Daniel G. Winn, William J. Barrett, Edward L. Flynn, Hebert M. Gardner, Stephanie P. Hurtt and Allen T. McInnes, Ph.D., or the indemnitees. Pursuant to the indemnification agreements, TGC
agreed to indemnify each indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law against any and all expenses arising from any proceeding (as defined in the indemnification agreements) in which
an indemnitee was, is or will be involved as a party or otherwise by reason of any indemnitee's service as, or actions taken while, (i)&nbsp;a director or officer of TGC or (ii)&nbsp;at the
request of TGC as a director or officer of any of TGC's affiliates. Following a written request by an indemnitee and a determination that such indemnitee is entitled to indemnification in accordance
with his or her indemnification agreement, TGC is required to advance (within twenty&nbsp;(20)&nbsp;days of receipt of such written request) to such indemnitee, prior to or after final disposition
of any proceeding, any and all expenses relating to the indemnitee's defense of such proceeding. </FONT></P>

in the indemnification agreements) constituting a quorum of the entire board of directors, (ii)&nbsp;by independent counsel (as defined in the indemnification agreements) in a written opinion to the
board of directors, (iii)&nbsp;by a vote of a majority of the holders of TGC's outstanding shares of common stock. If no determination is </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
undersigned registrant hereby undertakes as follows: that prior to any public reoffering of the securities registered hereunder through use of a prospectus which is

contain the information called for by the applicable registration form with respect to reofferings by persons who may be deemed underwriters, in addition to the information called for by the other
Items of the applicable form. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The

requirements of Section&nbsp;10(a)(3) of the Securities Act and is used in connection with an offering of securities subject to Rule&nbsp;415, will be filed as a part of an amendment to the
registration statement and will not be used until such amendment is effective, and that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and
controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director,
officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit
to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. </FONT></P>
