      is under contract to be built for customer delivery in late 2006. Five of the
      six rigs are signed to two-year term drilling contracts with two major Texas
      based independent oil &amp; gas companies. The first rig commenced operation in
      February, 2006 in Arkansas and, since that time, the two other operating rigs
      have commenced operation so that two are now drilling in Arkansas and one in
      Texas. These customers operate the rigs in the prolific Barnett Shale play
      in
      Texas and the emerging Fayetteville Shale play in Arkansas. These customer
      drilling contracts were assigned to Eagle as part of the acquisition. In
      addition to the drilling rig crews associated with the rigs being transferred
      to
      Blast, Richard D. Thornton, the VP of Operations for Eagle Domestic Drilling
      Operations LLC, will be joining the Blast senior management team in the same

      Note (&#8220;the Note&#8221;) dated August 25, 2006 in the original principal amount of
      $40.6 million with a final maturity in three years, with interest at prime

      interest, during the second twelve months at 105% of principal plus accrued
      interest and during the final twelve months at 100% of principal plus accrued

      total
      value of the total value of the investment of $40.6 million at closing. The
      SPA
      further required the issuance of Common Stock Purchase Warrants (&#8220;Warrants&#8221;) to
      purchase 6,090,000 shares of commons stock of Blast at an exercise price of
      $1.44 per share, and an additional 6,090,000 shares of common stock at an
      exercise price of $0.01 per share. The Warrants have a seven year term and
      require Blast to file a registration statement to register the underlying shares
      with 60 days after closing and to obtain effectiveness with the SEC within
      180
      days after closing. If the Company fails to timely file the registration
      statement or have the registration statement declared effective within 180
      days
      from the date of the Warrants, it may incur liquidated damages at a monthly
      rate
      of 0.75% of the value of the investment per month with a cap of 7.5% of the
      amount of the debt. In addition, liquidated damages may also be incurred if
      shares underlying the Warrants become unregistered for specified times prior
      to
      maturity. Laurus has agreed not to sell any of the underlying shares of common
      stock for a period of 12 months and not to &#8220;short&#8221; the Company&#8217;s stock in the
      publicly traded markets. Blast and Eagle have pledged their assets to Laurus
      in
      consideration for the investment, including the assets acquired in conjunction
      with the purchase. In addition, under the SPA, Blast agreed to restrictions
      on
      any dividends or distributions on its capital stock, agreed to not issue any
      short-term preferred stock, and agreed to not incur any indebtedness outside
      of
      the indebtedness to Laurus, other than for certain amounts of trade debt and
      certain outstanding indebtedness. The Laurus financing was privately arranged

        This
        Amendment Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by
        different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so
        executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, and all such counterparts
        together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed
        signature page of this Amendment Agreement by telecopier to the telecopier
        number set forth in the Agreement (Notices), shall be equally effective as

        counterpart of its signature page hereof by telecopier to the telecopier
        number
        set forth in the signature page to the Agreement (Notices,) shall also promptly
        deliver a manually executed counterpart, but the failure to deliver such
        manually executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability,
        and
        binding effect of this Amendment Agreement. Each party acknowledges that
        (a)
        this Amendment Agreement has been reviewed with and approved by its legal
        counsel; (b) it has carefully read this Amendment Agreement and fully

      Warrant with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made,

        WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND
        PERFORMED IN SUCH STATE, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW.
        The
        Company hereby consents and agrees that the state or federal courts located
        in
        the County of New York, State of New York shall have exclusion jurisdiction
        to
        hear and determine any Proceeding between the Company, on the one hand, and
        the
        Purchaser, on the other hand, pertaining to this Agreement or to any matter
        arising out of or related to this Agreement; provided, that the Purchaser
        and
        the Company acknowledge that any appeals from those courts may have to be
        heard
        by a court located outside of the County of New York, State of New York,
        and
        further provided, that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed or operate
        to
        preclude the Purchaser from bringing a Proceeding in any other jurisdiction
        to
        collect the obligations, to realize on the Collateral (as defined in the
        Master
        Security Agreement) or any other security for the obligations, or to enforce
        a
        judgment or other court order in favor of the Purchaser. The Company expressly
        submits and consents in advance to such jurisdiction in any Proceeding commenced
        in any such court, and the Company hereby waives any objection which it may
        have
        based upon lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue or forum non
        conveniens. The Company hereby waives personal service of the summons, complaint
        and other process issued in any such Proceeding and agrees that service of
        such
        summons, complaint and other process may be made by registered or certified
        mail
        addressed to the Company at the address set forth in Section 7(g) and that
        service so made shall be deemed completed upon the earlier of the Company&#8217;s
        actual receipt thereof or three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mails,
        proper
        postage prepaid. The parties hereto desire that their disputes be resolved
        by a
        judge applying such applicable laws. Therefore, to achieve the best combination
        of the benefits of the judicial system and of arbitration, the parties hereto
        waive all rights to trial by jury in any Proceeding brought to resolve any
        dispute, whether arising in contract, tort, or otherwise between the Purchaser
        and/or the Company arising out of, connected with, related or incidental
        to the
        relationship established between then in connection with this Agreement.
        If
        either party hereto shall commence a Proceeding to enforce any provisions
        of
        this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement or any other Related Agreement, then
        the
        prevailing party in such Proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party
        for
        its reasonable attorneys&#8217; fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the
        investigation, preparation and prosecution of such Proceeding.</font></div>

      Pledgor
      agrees that, without the prior written consent of Laurus, Pledgor shall not
      take
      any action that would operate to dilute the interest of Pledgor in any Issuer
      other than as permitted by this Pledge Agreement. Pledgor further agrees that,
      upon the written request of Laurus after an Event of Default has occurred and
      is
      continuing, Pledgor may be removed as a member of any Issuer and replaced with
      the assignee designated in such request. If Laurus so requests after an Event
      of
      Default has occurred and is continuing, Pledgor covenants and agrees to execute
      an amendment to the LLC Agreement of the relevant Issuer to reflect any such
      assignee&#8217;s substitution in place of Pledgor as a member of such Issuer, provided
      that such assignee shall adopt such LLC Agreement, and agrees to be bound by
      the
      terms and provisions thereof. In the event that any such assignee is admitted
      as
      a member of any Issuer in substitution of Pledgor, Pledgor agrees that such
      assignee shall not be liable for the obligations of Pledgor with respect to
      such
      Issuer arising before such assignee&#8217;s admission to such Issuer, except to the
      extent required by law. Pledgor hereby expressly waives any rights it may have
      under the LLC Agreement as a result of the enforcement by Laurus of any of
      its
      rights hereunder or the transfer (or agreement to transfer) by Laurus of any
      of
      its rights in any Issuer. Pledgor also hereby expressly waives any and all
      rights under the LLC Agreement of any Issuer which, whether exercised by Pledgor
      or not, would prevent, inhibit or interfere with the granting of a security
      interest in the Collateral, the foreclosure of such security interest in the
      Collateral by Laurus or the full realization by Laurus of any of its other
