On May 30, 2013, we received a Civil Investigative Demand ("CID") from the U.S. Department of Justice
("DOJ") pursuant to the Antitrust Civil Process Act. The CID seeks documents and information from us for the
period from May 29, 2011 through the date of the CID in connection with a DOJ investigation related to pressure
pumping services in the U.S. We are working with the DOJ to provide the requested documents and information.
We are not able to predict what action, if any, might be taken in the future by the DOJ or other governmental
authorities as a result of the investigation.
