          3.4 Financial Statements. The Company has delivered to Aduddell: audited consolidated
balance sheets of the Company as at March 31, 2006 (including the notes thereto, the “Balance
Sheet”) and in each of the years 2003 through 2005, and the related audited consolidated
statements of income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flow for each of the fiscal years
then ended, together with the report thereon of Ocel, Heimer & Lindsey Ltd., independent certified
public accountants, and (b) an unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Acquired Companies as at
September 30, 2006 (the “Interim Balance Sheet”) and the related unaudited consolidated statements
of income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flow for the six months then ended, including
in each case the notes thereto. Such financial statements and notes fairly present the financial
condition and the results of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flow of the
Company as at the respective dates of and for the periods referred to in such financial statements,
all in accordance with GAAP, subject, in the case of interim financial statements, to normal
recurring year-end adjustments (the effect of which will not, individually or in the aggregate, be
materially adverse) and the absence of notes (that, if presented, would not differ materially from
those included in the Balance Sheet); the financial statements referred to in this Section 3.4
reflect the consistent application of such accounting principles throughout the periods involved,
except as disclosed in the notes to such financial statements. No financial statements of any
Person other than the Company is required by GAAP to be included in the consolidated financial
statements of the Company.

          3.5 Books and Records. The books of account, minute books, stock record books, and
other records of the Company, all of which have been made available to Aduddell, are complete and
correct and have been maintained in accordance with sound business practices. At the Closing, all
of those books and records will be in the possession of the Company.

          3.6 Title to Properties; Encumbrances. The Company owns (subject only to the matters
permitted by the following sentence) all the properties and assets (whether tangible or intangible)
that they purport to own located in the facilities owned or operated by the Company or reflected as
owned in the books and records of the Company, including all of the properties and assets reflected
in the Balance Sheet and the Interim Balance Sheet (except for assets held under capitalized leases
and personal property sold since the date of the Balance Sheet and the Interim Balance Sheet, as
the case may be, in the Ordinary Course of Business.) All material properties and assets reflected
in the Balance Sheet and the Interim Balance Sheet are free and clear of all Encumbrances except
(a) security interests shown on the Balance Sheet or the Interim Balance Sheet as securing
specified liabilities or obligations, with respect to which no default (or event that, with notice
or lapse of time or both, would constitute a default) exists, and (b) security interests incurred
in connection with the purchase of property or assets after the date of the Interim Balance Sheet
(such security interests being limited to the property or assets so acquired), with respect to
which no default (or event that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a default)
exists.

          3.7 Condition and Sufficiency of Assets. The equipment of the Company is in good
operating condition and repair, and is adequate for the uses to which it is being put, and

15

 

none of such equipment is in need of maintenance or repairs except for ordinary, routine
maintenance and repairs that are not material in nature or cost. The building, plants, structures,
and equipment owned or used by the Company are sufficient for the continued conduct of the
Company’s businesses after the Closing in substantially the same manner as conducted prior to the
Closing.

          3.8 Accounts Receivable. All accounts receivable of the Company that are reflected on the Balance Sheet or the
Interim Balance Sheet or on the accounting records of the Company as of the Closing Date
(collectively, the “Accounts Receivable”) represent or will represent valid obligations arising
from sales actually made or services actually performed in the Ordinary Course of Business. Unless
paid prior to the Closing Date, the Accounts Receivable are or will be as of the Closing Date
considered current and collectible net of the respective reserves shown on the Balance Sheet or the
Interim Balance Sheet or on the accounting records of the Company as of the Closing Date (which
reserves are adequate and calculated consistent with past practice and, in the case of the reserve
as of the Closing Date, will not represent a greater percentage of the Accounts Receivable as of
the Closing Date than the reserve reflected in the Interim Balance Sheet represented of the
Accounts Receivable reflected therein and will not represent a material adverse change in the
composition of such Accounts Receivable in terms of aging). There is no contest, claim, or right
of set-off, other than returns in the Ordinary Course of Business, under any Contract with any
obligor of an Accounts Receivable relating to the amount or validity of such Accounts Receivable.

          3.9 Inventory. All inventory of the Company, whether or not reflected in the Balance Sheet or the Interim
Balance Sheet, consists of a quality and quantity usable and salable in the Ordinary Course of
Business, except for obsolete items and items of below-standard quality, all of which have been
written off or written down to net realizable value in the Balance Sheet or the Interim Balance
Sheet or on the accounting records of the Company as of the Closing Date, as the case may be. All
inventories not written off have been priced at the lower of cost or market. The quantities of each
item of inventory (whether raw materials, work-in-process, or finished goods) are not excessive,
but are reasonable in the present circumstances of the Acquired Companies.

          3.10 No Undisclosed Liabilities. To the best of the Company’s and the Company Shareholder’s Knowledge, the Company has no
liabilities or obligations except for liabilities or obligations reflected or reserved against in
the Balance Sheet or the Interim Balance Sheet and current liabilities incurred in the Ordinary
Course of Business since the respective dates thereof.

          3.11 Taxes.

               (a) The Company has filed or caused to be filed all Tax Returns that are or were required to be
filed by or with respect to any of them, either separately or as a member of a group of
corporations, pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements. The Company has delivered to Aduddell
copies of all such Tax Returns filed since 2003. The Company has paid, or made provision for the
payment of, all Taxes that have or may have become due pursuant to those Tax Returns or otherwise,
or pursuant to any assessment received by the Company Shareholder or the Company.

16

 

               (b) Neither the Company Shareholder nor Company has given or been requested to give
waivers or extensions (or is or would be subject to a waiver or extension given by any other
Person) of any statute of limitations relating to the payment of Taxes of the Company or for which
the Company may be liable.

               (c) The charges, accruals, and reserves with respect to Taxes on the books of the Company are
adequate (determined in accordance with GAAP) and are at least equal to the Company’s liability for
Taxes. There exists no proposed tax assessment against the Company except as disclosed in the
Balance Sheet. No consent to the application of Section 341(f)(2) of the IRC has been filed with
respect to any property or assets held, acquired, or to be acquired by the Company. All Taxes that
the Company is or was required by Legal Requirements to withhold or collect have been duly withheld
or collected and, to the extent required, have been paid to the proper Governmental Body or other
Person.

               (d) All Tax Returns filed by (or that include on a consolidated basis) the Company are true,
correct, and complete. There is no tax sharing agreement that will require any payment by the
Company after the date of this Agreement. The Company is not, or within the five-year period
preceding the Closing Date has not been, an “S” corporation

          3.12 No Material Adverse Change. Since the date of the Balance Sheet, there has not
been any material adverse change in the business, operations, properties, prospects, assets, or

3.15, and 3.19, unless on or before December 31, 2007 Aduddell notifies the Company Shareholder of
a claim specifying the factual basis of that claim in reasonable detail to the extent then known by
Aduddell. A claim with respect to Section 3.1, 3.3, 3.11, 3.15, or 3.19, or a claim for indemnification or reimbursement not based upon any representation or

any time prior to the date on which such representation and warranty is made or any intentional
Breach by Aduddell of any covenant or obligation, and Aduddell will be liable for all Damages with
respect to such Breaches.

          10.7 Procedure For Indemnification—Third Party Claims.

               (a) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under Section 10.2, or Section 10.3 of
notice of the commencement of any Proceeding against it, such indemnified party will, if a claim is
to be made against an indemnifying party under such Section, give notice to the indemnifying party
of the commencement of such claim, but the failure to notify the indemnifying party will not
relieve the indemnifying party of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party, except
to the extent that the indemnifying party demonstrates that the defense of such action is
prejudiced by the indemnifying party’s failure to give such notice.

               (b) If any Proceeding referred to in Section 10.6(a) is brought against an indemnified party
and it gives notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement of such Proceeding, the
indemnifying party will, unless the claim involves Taxes, be entitled to participate in such
Proceeding and, to the extent that it wishes (unless (i) the indemnifying party is also a party to
such Proceeding and the indemnified party determines in good faith that joint

41

 

representation would be inappropriate, or (ii) the indemnifying party fails to provide reasonable assurance to the
indemnified party of its financial capacity to defend such Proceeding and provide indemnification
with respect to such Proceeding), to assume the defense of such Proceeding with counsel
satisfactory to the indemnified party and, after notice from the indemnifying party to the
indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such Proceeding, the indemnifying party
will not, as long as it diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 10 for any fees of other counsel or any
other expenses with respect to the defense of such Proceeding, in each case subsequently incurred
by the indemnified party in connection with the defense of such Proceeding, other than reasonable
costs of investigation. If the indemnifying party assumes the defense of a Proceeding, (i) it will
be conclusively established for purposes of this Agreement that the claims made in that Proceeding
are within the scope of and subject to indemnification; (ii) no compromise or settlement of such
claims may be effected by the indemnifying party without the indemnified party’s consent unless (A)
there is no finding or admission of any violation of Legal Requirements or any violation of the
rights of any Person and no effect on any other claims that may be made against the indemnified
party, and (B) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the
indemnifying party; and (iii) the indemnified party will have no liability with respect to any
compromise or settlement of such claims effected without its consent. If notice is given to an
indemnifying party of the commencement of any Proceeding and the indemnifying party does not,
within ten days after the indemnified party’s notice is given, give notice to the indemnified party
of its election to assume the defense of such Proceeding, the indemnifying party will be bound by
any determination made in such Proceeding or any compromise or settlement effected by the
indemnified party.

               (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an indemnified party determines in good faith that there
is a reasonable probability that a Proceeding may adversely affect it or its affiliates other than
as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this
Agreement, the indemnified party may, by notice to the indemnifying party, assume the exclusive
right to defend, compromise, or settle such Proceeding, but the indemnifying party will not be
bound by any determination of a Proceeding so defended or any compromise or settlement effected
without its consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld).

               (d) The Company Shareholder hereby consents to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any court in
which a Proceeding is brought against any Indemnified Person for purposes of any claim that an
Indemnified Person may have under this Agreement with respect to such Proceeding or the matters
alleged therein.

          10.8 Procedure For Indemnification—Other Claims. A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a third-party claim may be
asserted by notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought.

     11. General Provisions.

available through no fault of such party, (b) the use of such information is necessary or
appropriate in making any filing or obtaining any consent or approval required for the consummation
of the Contemplated Transactions, or (c) the furnishing or use of such information is required by

out of, this Agreement may be brought against any of the parties in the courts of the State of
Oklahoma, County of Oklahoma, or, if it has or can acquire jurisdiction, in the United States
District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma, and each of the parties consents to the
jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts) in any such action or
proceeding and waives any objection to venue laid therein. Process in any action or proceeding

alternative. Neither the failure nor any delay by any party in exercising any right, power, or
privilege under this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right, power, or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such
right, power, or privilege will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power, or
privilege or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege. To the maximum extent permitted
by applicable law, (a) no claim or right arising out of this Agreement or the documents referred to
in this Agreement can be discharged by one party, in whole or in part, by a waiver or

44

 

renunciation of the claim or right unless in writing signed by the other party; (b) no waiver that may be given
by a party will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given; and (c) no
notice to or demand on one party will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of such party or
of the right of the party giving such notice or demand to take further action without notice or
demand as provided in this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement.

          11.8 Entire Agreement And Modification. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements between the parties with respect to its
subject matter and constitutes (along with the documents referred to in this Agreement) a complete
and exclusive statement of the terms of the agreement between the parties with respect to its
subject matter. This Agreement may not be amended except by a written agreement executed by the
party to be charged with the amendment.

          11.9 Assignments, Successors, And No Third-Party Rights. Neither party may assign any of its rights under this Agreement without the prior consent
of the other parties, which will not be unreasonably withheld, except that Aduddell may assign any
of its rights under this Agreement to any Subsidiary of Aduddell. Subject to the preceding
sentence, this Agreement will apply to, be binding in all respects upon, and inure to the benefit
of the successors and permitted assigns of the parties. Nothing expressed or referred to in this
Agreement will be construed to give any Person other than the parties to this Agreement any legal
or equitable right, remedy, or claim under or with respect to this Agreement or any provision of
this Agreement. This Agreement and all of its provisions and conditions are for the sole and
exclusive benefit of the parties to this Agreement and their successors and assigns.

          11.10 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of
competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and
effect. Any provision of this Agreement held invalid or unenforceable only in part or degree will
remain in full force and effect to the extent not held invalid or unenforceable.

          11.11 Section Headings, Construction. The headings of Sections in this Agreement are provided for convenience only and will not
affect its construction or interpretation. All references to “Section” or “Sections” refer to the
corresponding Section or Sections of this Agreement. All words used in this Agreement will be
construed to be of such gender or number as the circumstances require. Unless otherwise expressly
provided, the word “including” does not limit the preceding words or terms.

is of the essence.

conflicts of laws principles.

be an original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken together, will be deemed to
constitute one and the same agreement.

conditions contained in the Agreement, you agreed to make Revolving Loans to the
Borrower.

         Terms used in this letter of agreement (the "Third Amendment") which
are not defined herein, but which are defined in the Agreement, shall have the
same respective meanings herein as therein.

         We have requested that you make certain amendments to the Agreement.
You have advised us that you are prepared and would be pleased to make the
amendments so requested by us on the condition that we join with you in this
Third Amendment.

         Accordingly, in consideration of these premises, the promises, mutual
covenants and agreements contained in this Third Amendment, and fully intending
to be legally bound by this Third Amendment, we hereby agree with you as
follows:

         The Borrower hereby represents and warrants to you as follows:

         (a) Representations in Agreement. Each of the representations and
warranties made by the Borrower to you in the Agreement was true, correct and
complete when made and is true, correct and complete in all material respects on
and as of the date hereof with the same full force and effect as if each of such
representations and

                                      -3-
<PAGE>
warranties had been made by the Borrower on the date hereof and in this Third
Amendment (except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly
relate to an earlier date).

         (b) No Defaults or Events of Default. No Default or Event of Default
exists on the date of this Third Amendment (after giving effect to all of the
arrangements and transactions contemplated by this Third Amendment).

         (c) Binding Effect of Documents. This Third Amendment has been duly

                                     WAIVER

         The Borrower has informed the Bank that it has failed to comply with
the provisions of Sections 5.19 and 5.21 of the Agreement for the fiscal year
ending December 31, 2006, which such failures constitute separate Events of
Default thereunder. The Borrower has requested a waiver of such Events of
Default, and by its countersignature below, the Bank hereby waives such Events
of Default under Sections 5.19 and 5.21 of the Agreement insofar as (and only to
the extent that) such Events of Default relate to the fiscal year ending
December 31, 2006. This waiver is a one-time waiver only, and does not
constitute a waiver of (i) any other Default or Event of Default under the
Credit Agreement, whether existing prior to, on or arising after December 31,
2006, including without limitation, any breach arising after such date of the
same type or nature, or (ii) any of the Bank's rights or remedies with respect
to any such other or subsequent Defaults or Events of Default.

                                   ARTICLE IV

supplemented hereby, all of the terms, conditions and the provisions of the
Agreement and each of the Loan Documents and Security Documents shall remain
unmodified, and the Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents and Security
Documents, as amended and supplemented by this Third Amendment, are confirmed as
being in full force and effect.

         (b) Governing Law. This Third Amendment is intended to take effect as a
sealed instrument and shall be deemed to be a contract under the laws of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts. This Third Amendment and the rights and
obligations

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

of each of the parties hereto and thereto shall be governed by and interpreted
and determined in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

         (c) Binding Effect; Assignment. This Third Amendment shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of each of the parties hereto and their respective
successors in title and assigns.

         (d) Counterparts. This Third Amendment may be executed in any number of

original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. In making
proof of this Third Amendment, it shall not be necessary to produce or account
for more than one counterpart thereof signed by each of the parties hereto.

         (e) Conflict with Other Agreements. If any of the terms of this Third
Amendment shall conflict in any respect with any of the terms of any of the
Agreement or any other Loan Document, the terms of this Third Amendment shall be
controlling.

transactions contemplated hereby);

             (iii) the Bank shall have received satisfactory evidence of
appropriate corporate and, if necessary, shareholder approval of the proposed
