Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On October 15, 2010, Oil States International, Inc. (the Company) and The MAC Services Group
Limited (The MAC), a leading provider of remote accommodations for the natural resources industry
in Australia, entered into a Scheme Implementation Deed (the Scheme Implementation Deed) related
to a Scheme of Arrangement (the Scheme of Arrangement), pursuant to which the Company will
acquire all of the ordinary shares of The MAC. Prior to entering into the Scheme Implementation
Deed, both the Company and The MAC received unanimous approval for the transaction from their
respective boards of directors.
Under the terms of the Scheme of Arrangement, each shareholder of The MAC will receive A$3.90
per share in cash, representing a premium of 16% to the closing price of A$3.35 per share on
October 14, 2010, the last trading price before announcement of the transaction. The Scheme
Implementation Deed contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and indemnification
provisions. The Companys acquisition of The MAC is subject to certain conditions precedent,
including approvals from the shareholders of The MAC, court approval of the Scheme of Arrangement
and other regulatory approvals. There can be no assurance that these closing conditions will be
satisfied. The Company expects the transaction to close by the end of the first quarter of 2011.
In connection with the Scheme of Arrangement, a subsidiary of the Company has entered into a
Call Option Agreement (the Option Agreement) with Marley Holdings Pty Ltd (Marley), as trustee
for The Maloney Family Trust, a 52% shareholder in The MAC. Pursuant to the Option Agreement, the
Company, in certain circumstances, may exercise an option to purchase a portion of Marleys holding
in The MAC representing 19.9% of the total issued share capital of The MAC.
The Company intends to fund the acquisition with cash on hand and borrowings available under a
new five-year, $900 million senior secured bank facility. The Company entered into a commitment
letter with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and its affiliates to provide this facility which, subject to
final syndication, is expected to consist of revolving credit facilities in both the United States
and Canada totaling $600 million, as well as funded term debt in both the United States and Canada
totaling $300 million. The funded term debt is repayable over the life of the term debt with a
balance due at maturity. The revolving credit facility and funded term debt are expected to have
higher interest rates consistent with current market conditions but otherwise have materially
similar terms and covenants to the Companys existing credit facility. The commitment letter is
subject to terms and conditions typical for committed, acquisition financing.
The foregoing description of the Scheme Implementation Deed, Scheme of Arrangement and Option
Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Scheme Implementation Deed, a copy of
which is filed herewith as Exhibit 2.1, and Option Agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as
Exhibit 10.1, each of which is incorporated herein by reference.

7.01.
