                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                           DECEMBER 31, 1999 AND 1998


1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated financial statements of Key Energy Services, Inc. (the
"Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiaries for the three and six month
periods ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 are unaudited. Certain information
and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
condensed or omitted in this Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations
of the Securities and Exchange Commission. However, in the opinion of
management, these interim financial statements include all the necessary
adjustments to fairly present the results of the interim periods presented.
These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1999. The
results of operations for the three and six month periods ended December 31,
1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full
fiscal year ending June 30, 2000.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

The Financial Accounting Standards Board has recently issued the following
accounting standards which will be adopted by the Company in the future.

In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities" which, as amended, is effective for
quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. This statement
establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments
and for hedging activities. The Company is currently evaluating what effect,
if any, this statement will have on the Company's financial statements. The
Company will adopt this statement no later than July 1, 2000.

RECLASSIFICATIONS AND ADJUSTMENTS

Certain reclassifications have been made to the consolidated financial
statements for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 1998 to
conform to the presentation for the three and six month periods ended
December 31, 1999.

2.  EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company accounts for earnings per share based upon Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share" ("SFAS 128"). Under SFAS
128, basic earnings per common share are determined by dividing net earnings
applicable to common stock by the weighted average number of common shares
actually outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is
based on the increased number of shares that would be outstanding assuming
conversion of dilutive outstanding convertible securities using the "as if
converted" method.

The earnings per share calculation for the three and six month periods ended
December 31, 1999 and 1998 excludes the Company's convertible debt,
outstanding warrants and stock options, because the effects of such
instruments on earnings per share would be anti-dilutive.

At the time of the closing, Dawson owned approximately 527 well service rigs,
200 oilfield trucks, and 21 production testing units in South Texas and the
Gulf Coast, East Texas and Louisiana, the Permian Basin of West Texas and New
Mexico, the Anadarko Basin of Texas and Oklahoma, California, and in the
inland waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

OTHER FISCAL 1999 ACQUISITIONS

In addition to its acquisition of Dawson, the Company acquired the assets
and/or capital stock of six well servicing and contract drilling businesses
during the first two quarters of fiscal 1999, increasing its rig and truck
fleet by a total of approximately 93 well service rigs, 4 drilling rigs and
185 oilfield trucks (and related equipment) for an aggregate purchase price
of approximately $93.7 million in cash. Each of the acquisitions was
accounted for using the purchase method and the results of the operations,
generated from the acquired assets, are included in the Company's results of
operations as of the completion date of each acquisition.

4.  STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

EQUITY OFFERING

On May 7, 1999, the Company closed the public offering of 55,300,000 shares
of common stock (300,000 shares of which were sold pursuant to the
underwriters' over-allotment option discussed below) at $3.00 per share, or
$165.9 million (the "Public Offering"). In addition, the Company closed the
offering of 3,508,772 shares of common stock at $2.85 per share, or $10.0
million (the "Concurrent Offering" and together with the Public Offering, the
"Equity Offering"). In addition, on June 7, 1999, the underwriters of the
Public Offering exercised an over-allotment option to purchase an additional
5,436,000 million shares to cover over-allotments. Net proceeds from the
Equity Offering of approximately $180.4 million were used to repay a portion
of the Company's term loan borrowings under its senior credit facility.

5.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Various suits and claims arising in the ordinary course of business are
pending against the Company. Management does not believe that the disposition
of any of these items will result in a material adverse impact to the
consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the
Company.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND
FINANCIAL CONDITION

                   NOTE REGARDING FORWARD - LOOKING STATEMENTS

The statements in this document that relate to matters that are not
historical facts are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. When used in this document and the documents
incorporated by reference, words such as "anticipate," "believe," "expect,"
"plan," "intend," "estimate," "project," "will," "could," "may," "predict"
and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
Further events and actual results may differ materially from the results set
forth in or implied in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might
cause such a difference include:

         -        fluctuations in world-wide prices and demand for oil and gas;

         -        fluctuations in level of oil and gas exploration and
                  development activities;

         -        fluctuations in the demand for well servicing, contract
                  drilling and ancillary oilfield services;

         -        the existence of competitors, technological changes and
                  developments in the industry;

         -        the existence of operating risks inherent in the well
                  servicing, contract drilling and ancillary oilfield services;

         -        the existence of regulatory uncertainties, the possibility of
                  political instability in any of the countries in which the
                  Company does business; and

         -        year 2000 issues and general economic conditions, in addition
                  to the other matters discussed herein.

The following discussion provides information to assist in the understanding
of the Company's financial condition and results of operations. It should be
read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related
notes appearing elsewhere in this report.

                              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999 VERSUS THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998

The Company's revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2000 totaled
$159,389,000, representing an increase of $15,743,000, or 11% as compared to
the prior year period. The results for the prior year period do not include a
full quarter of several fiscal 1999 acquisitions completed and integrated during
the period. Despite the higher revenues in the current period, reduced rates
and a lower margin mix of business combined with higher costs associated with
hiring crews and reactivating equipment continued to adversely impact the
Company's profits. The Company's net loss for the second quarter of fiscal 2000
totaled $5,693,000, or $0.07 per share, versus a net loss of $9,797,000, or
$0.54 per share, for the prior year period. The prior year period, however,


                                      13


<PAGE>


included a corporate restructuring charge of $6,699,000.

The Company's results for the three months ended December 31, 1999 reflect
the third consecutive quarter of improvement in its business. Adverse
business conditions impacted the Company during fiscal 1999. These conditions
were caused by the significant and unprecedented decline in oil prices,
which, in turn, caused a sustained decline in oilfield spending by producers.
Beginning in March 1999, oil production cuts initiated by the Organization of
Petroleum Exporting Countries combined with increasing worldwide demand began
to strengthen both oil and natural gas prices. This has lead to a gradual
recovery in spending by oil and gas producers and increasing hours, revenues
and operating profits for the Company. Such spending has increased cautiously
as producers are taking a more conservative stance waiting to see if the new
price levels are sustainable. Management expects demand for the Company's
services and equipment to improve during calendar 2000, if the current
pricing environment continues.

OPERATING REVENUES

WELL SERVICING. Well servicing revenues increased $12,276,000, or 9.7%, from
$126,446,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1998 to $138,722,000 for
the three months ended December 31, 1999. The increase in revenues was
primarily due to an increase in the number of hours worked and was partially
offset by lower prices. The prior year results do not include the full
quarter effect of several acquisitions completed and integrated during the
period.

CONTRACT DRILLING. Revenues from contract drilling activities increased
$2,978,000, or 19.5%, from $15,234,000 for the three months ended December
31, 1998 to $18,212,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1999. The
increase in revenues was primarily due to an increase in equipment
utilization and was partially offset by lower prices. The prior year results
do not include the full quarter effect of several acquisitions completed and
integrated during the period.

OIL AND NATURAL GAS PRODUCTION. Revenues from oil and natural gas production
activities increased $805,000, or 43.8%, from $1,837,000 for the three months
ended December 31, 1998 to $2,642,000 for the three months ended December 31,
1999. The increase in revenues was primarily due to a 44% increase in the
price of oil and gas received on a barrel of oil equivalent ("BOE") basis for
the three months ended December 31, 1999 compared to the prior year period,
and was partially offset by a 21% decrease in the volume of oil and gas
produced on a BOE basis for the three months ended December 31, 1999 compared
to the prior year period.

OPERATING EXPENSES

WELL SERVICING. Well servicing expenses increased $8,090,000, or 8.9%, from
$90,862,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1998 to $98,952,000 for
the three months ended December 31, 1999. The increase was primarily due to a
higher level of activity and the cost of bringing crews and previously idle
equipment on line and was partially offset by cost reductions effected as a
result of the Company's restructuring efforts. Well servicing expenses, as a
percentage of well servicing revenue, decreased from 72% for the three months
ended December 31, 1998 to 71% for the three months ended December 31, 1999.

CONTRACT DRILLING. Expenses related to contract drilling activities increased
$3,367,000, or 27.2%, from $12,399,000 for the three months ended December
31, 1998 to $15,766,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1999. The
increase was primarily due to the cost of bringing crews


                                      14

and previously idle equipment on line and was partially offset by cost
reductions effected as a result of the Company's restructuring efforts.
Contract drilling expenses, as a percentage of contract drilling revenues,
increased from 81% for the three months ended December 31, 1998 to 87% for
the three months ended December 31, 1999.

OIL AND NATURAL GAS PRODUCTION. Expenses related to oil and natural gas
production activities increased $57,000, or 6.5%, from $879,000 for the three
months ended December 31, 1998 to $936,000 for the three months ended
December 31, 1999. Oil and natural gas production costs increased from $5.08
per BOE for the three months ended December 31, 1998 to $6.81 per BOE for the
three months ended December 31, 1999. The increase per BOE is primarily due
to the costs of placing wells back on production that were not producing
prior to the quarter and, to a lesser extent, increased rates for electricity
and other operating services.

DEPRECIATION, DEPLETION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSE

The Company's depreciation, depletion and amortization expense increased
$3,628,000, or 25.1%, from $14,427,000 for the three months ended December
31, 1998 to $18,055,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1999. The
increase is primarily due to the effect of the acquisitions completed during
the early portion of fiscal 1999.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

The Company's general and administrative expenses increased $820,000, or
5.9%, from $13,910,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1998 to
$14,730,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1999. The increase was
primarily due to an increase in activity and the effect of the acquisitions
completed during the early portion of fiscal 1999 and was largely offset by
cost reductions effected as a result of the Company's restructuring efforts.
General and administrative expenses, as a percentage of revenues, decreased
from 9.7% for the three months ended December 31, 1998 to 9.2% for the three
months ended December 31, 1999.

INTEREST EXPENSE

The Company's interest expense decreased $708,000, or 3.8%, from $18,822,000
for the three months ended December 31, 1998 to $18,114,000 for the three
months ended December 31, 1999. The decrease was primarily due to a
significant reduction in the Company's debt as a result of the Equity
Offering and was partially offset by higher floating interest rates. Included
in interest expense was the amortization of debt issuance costs of $1,292,000
and $1,597,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1999 and 1998,
respectively.

BAD DEBT EXPENSE

The Company's bad debt expense increased $361,000, or 84.3%, from $428,000
for the three months ended December 31, 1998 to $789,000 for the three months
ended December 31, 1999. The increase was primarily due to increased revenues
and the residual effects of a significant decline in commodity prices and a
corresponding deterioration in market conditions during fiscal 1999.

INCOME TAXES

The Company's income tax benefit decreased $2,723,000 from a benefit of
$4,983,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1998 to a benefit of
$2,260,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1999. The decrease in the
income tax benefit is due to the decrease in pretax losses. The Company's
effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 was
28% and 34%, respectively. The effective tax rates are different from the
statutory rate of 35% because of the disallowance of certain goodwill
amortization, other non-deductible expenses and state and local taxes. The
Company does not expect to be required to remit federal income taxes for the
next few fiscal years because of the availability of net operating loss carry
forwards from fiscal 1999 and previous years.

SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999 VERSUS SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998

The Company's revenue for the first six months of fiscal 2000 totaled
$309,281,000 representing an increase of $50,048,000, or 19.3% as compared to
the prior year period. The results for the prior year period do not include a
full six months of Dawson's results as well as several other fiscal 1999
acquisitions. The Company's net loss for the six months of fiscal 2000
totaled $15,144,000 or $0.18 per share, versus net loss of $7,960,000 or
$0.44 per share, for the prior year period.

OPERATING REVENUES

WELL SERVICING. Well servicing revenues increased $46,600,000 or 20.9%, from
$222,939,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1998 to $269,539,000 for
the six months ended December 31, 1999. The increase in revenues was due to
the full period effect of the acquisitions completed during the early portion
of fiscal 1999 and by a modest increase in equipment utilization and was
partially offset by lower prices.

CONTRACT DRILLING. Revenues from contract drilling activities increased
$2,520,000, or 7.8%, from $32,150,000 for the six months ended December 31,
1998 to $34,670,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1999. The increase
in revenues was primarily due to an increase in equipment utilization and the
full period effect of the acquisitions completed during the early portion of
fiscal 1999 and was partially offset by lower prices.

OIL AND NATURAL GAS PRODUCTION. Revenues from oil and natural gas production
activities increased $1,055,000 or 29.2%, from $3,607,000 for the six months
ended December 31, 1998 to $4,662,000 for the six months ended December 31,
1999. The increase in revenues was primarily due to a 26% increase in the
price of oil and gas received on a barrel of oil equivalent ("BOE") basis for
the six months ended December 31, 1999 compared to the prior year period, and
was partially offset by a 15% decrease in the volume of oil and gas produced
on a BOE basis for the six months ended December 31, 1999 compared to the
prior year period.

OPERATING EXPENSES

WELL SERVICING. Well servicing expenses increased $39,899,000 or 25.2%, from
$158,267,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1998 to $198,166,000 for
the six months ended December 31, 1999. The increase was primarily due to the
full period effect of the acquisitions completed during the early portion of
fiscal 1999 and the cost of bringing crews and previously idle equipment on
line and was partially offset by cost reductions effected as a result of the
Company's restructuring efforts. Well servicing expenses, as a percentage of
well servicing revenue, increased from 71% for the six months ended December
31, 1998 to 74% for the six months ended December 31, 1999.

CONTRACT DRILLING. Expenses related to contract drilling activities increased
$4,018,000 or 15.4%, from $26,019,000 for the six months ended December 31,
1998 to $30,037,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1999. The increase
was primarily due to the full period effect of the acquisition completed
during the early portion of fiscal 1999 and the cost of bringing crews and
previously idle equipment on line and was partially offset by cost reductions
effected as a result of the Company's restructuring efforts. Contract
drilling expenses, as a percentage of contract drilling revenues, increased
from 81% for the six months ended December 31, 1998 to 87% for the six months
ended December 31, 1999.

OIL AND NATURAL GAS PRODUCTION. Expenses related to oil and natural gas
production activities increased $298,000, or 18.2%, from $1,638,000 for the
six months ended December 31, 1998 to $1,936,000 for the six months ended
December 31, 1999. Oil and natural gas production costs increased from $5.14
per BOE for the six months ended December 31, 1998 to $7.07 per BOE for the
six months ended December 31, 1999. The increase per BOE is primarily due to
the costs of placing wells back on production that were not producing prior
to the period and, to a lesser extent, increased rates for electricity and
other operating services.

DEPRECIATION, DEPLETION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSE

The Company's depreciation, depletion and amortization expense increased
$9,746,000, or 38.8%, from $25,130,000 for the six months ended December 31,
1998 to $34,876,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1999. The increase
is primarily due to an increase in oilfield service depreciation resulting
from a full period's effect of the acquisitions completed during the early
portion of fiscal 1999.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

The Company's general and administrative expenses increased $3,527,000, or
14%, from $25,115,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1998 to
$28,642,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1999. The increase was
primarily due to the effect of the acquisitions completed during the early
portion of fiscal 1999 for the full period and was largely offset by cost
reductions effected as a result of the Company's restructuring efforts.
General and administrative expenses, as a percentage of revenues, decreased
from 9.7% for the six months ended December 31, 1998 to 9.3% for the six
months ended December 31, 1999.

INTEREST EXPENSE

The Company's interest expense increased $8,175,000 or 29.9%, from
$27,327,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1998 to $35,502,000 for the
six months ended December 31, 1999. The increase was primarily due to the
full period effect of the additional debt incurred in connection with the
acquisitions completed during the early portion of fiscal 1999 and, to a
lesser extent, higher interest rates and amortization of additional debt
issuance costs and was partially offset by a significant reduction in the
Company's debt as a result of the Equity Offering. Included in interest
expense was the amortization of debt issuance costs of $2,547,000 and
$2,364,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

BAD DEBT EXPENSE

The Company's bad debt expense increased $605,000, or 91.5%, from $661,000
for the six months ended December 31, 1998 to $1,266,000 for the six months
ended December 31, 1999. The increase was primarily due to increased revenues
and the residual effects of a significant decline in commodity prices and a
corresponding deterioration in market conditions during fiscal 1999.

INCOME TAXES

The Company's income tax benefit increased $2,337,000 from a benefit of
$3,663,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1998 to a benefit of
$6,000,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1999. The increase in the
income tax benefit is due to the decrease in pretax income. The Company's
effective tax rate for the six months ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 was
28% and 32%, respectively. The effective tax rates are different from the
statutory rate of 35% because of the disallowance of certain goodwill
amortization, other non-deductible expenses and state and local taxes. The
Company does not expect to be required to remit federal income taxes for the
next few fiscal years because of the availability of net operating loss carry
forwards from fiscal 1999 and previous years.

                         LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company has historically funded its operations, acquisitions, capital
expenditures and working capital requirements from cash flow from operations,
bank borrowings, and the issuance of long term debt and equity. We believe
that the current reserves of cash and cash equivalents, access to our
existing credit lines and internally generated cash flow from operations are
sufficient to finance the cash requirements of our current and future
operations.


                                      18


<PAGE>


As of December 31, 1999, the Company had working capital (after taking into
account the current portion of long term debt) of approximately $64,443,000
and cash and cash equivalents of approximately $9,202,000 as compared to
working capital (after taking into account the current portion of long term
debt) of approximately $59,392,000 and cash and cash equivalents of
approximately $23,478,000 as of June 30, 1999. This increase in working
capital is primarily related to the timing of cash receipts and
disbursements. Receivables are higher due to the increase in revenues caused
by the increased utilization of the Company's equipment base and payables are
also higher due to the addition of more employees and greater costs related
to the increased equipment utilization.

The reduction in the Company's cash and cash equivalents since June 30, 1999
was primarily attributable to:

         -        Cash from (used in) operations of ($5,474,000)
         -        Borrowings, net of repayments on term debt and revolver,
                  of $5,928,000
         -        Capital expenditures of $14,634,000

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES

Capital expenditures for fiscal 2000 are expected to approximate fiscal 1999
levels. Expenditures will be directed toward selectively refurbishing our
assets as business conditions warrant. The Company will continue to evaluate
opportunities to acquire or divest assets or businesses to enhance the
Company's primary operations. Such capital expenditures, acquisitions and
divestitures are at the discretion of the Company and will depend on
management's view of market conditions as well as other factors.

LONG-TERM DEBT

SENIOR CREDIT FACILITY

As of December 31, 1999, the Company had an approximately $370 million senior
credit facility (the "Senior Credit Facility") with a syndicate of banks led
by PNC Bank, N.A. which consisted of a $150,000,000 revolving loan facility,
$41,630,861 in Tranche A term loans and $177,316,967 in Tranche B term loans.
In addition, up to $20,000,000 of letters of credit can be issued under the
Senior Credit Facility, but any outstanding letters of credit reduce the
borrowing availability under the revolving loan facility. As of December 31,
1999, approximately $102,000,000 was drawn under the revolving loan facility
and approximately $15,132,000 of letters of credit related to workmen's
compensation insurance was outstanding, leaving approximately $32,868,000
available under the revolving loan facility.

The revolving loans and Tranche A term loans bear interest based upon, at the
Company's option, the prime rate plus a variable margin of 0.75% to 2.00% or
a Eurodollar rate plus a variable margin of 2.25% to 3.50%. The Tranche B
loans bear interest based upon, at the Company's option, the prime rate plus
2.50% or a Eurodollar rate plus 4.00%. The Credit Facility has customary
affirmative and negative covenants including a maximum debt to capitalization
ratio, a minimum interest coverage ratio, a maximum senior leverage ratio, a
minimum net worth and minimum EBITDA ratio as well as restrictions on capital
expenditures, acquisitions and dispositions.

14% SENIOR SUBORDINATED NOTES

On January 22, 1999, the Company completed the private placement of 150,000
units (the "Units") consisting of $150,000,000 of 14% Senior Subordinated
Notes due 2009 (the "14% Senior Subordinated Notes") and 150,000 warrants to
purchase 2,032,565 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $4.88125
per share (the "Unit Warrants"). The cash proceeds from the private
placement, net of fees and expenses, were used to repay substantially all of
the remaining $148,600,000 principal amount (plus accrued interest) owed
under the Company's bridge loan facility arranged in connection with the
acquisition of Dawson. The 14% Senior Subordinated Notes are subordinate to
the Company's senior indebtedness which includes borrowings under the Senior
Credit Facility and the Dawson 9 3/8% Senior Notes.

5% CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED NOTES

On September 25, 1997, the Company completed an initial closing of its
private placement of $200,000,000 of 5% Convertible Subordinated Notes due
2004 (the "5% Convertible Subordinated Notes"). On October 7, 1997, the
Company completed a second closing of its private placement of an additional
$16,000,000 of the 5% Convertible Subordinated Notes pursuant to the exercise
of the remaining portion of an over-allotment option. The 5% Convertible
Subordinated Notes are subordinate to the Company's senior indebtedness which
includes borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility, the 14% Senior
Subordinated Notes and the Dawson 9 3/8% Senior Notes. The 5% Convertible
Subordinated Notes are convertible, at the holder's option, into shares of
the Company's common stock at a conversion price of $38.50 per share, subject
to certain adjustments.

7% CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES

In July 1996, the Company completed a $52,000,000 private placement of 7%
Convertible Subordinated Debentures due 2003 (the "7% Convertible
Subordinated Debentures"). The 7% Convertible Subordinated Debentures are
subordinate to the Company's senior indebtedness which includes borrowings
under the Senior Credit Facility, the 14% Senior Subordinated Notes and the
Dawson 9 3/8% Senior Notes. The Debentures are convertible, at any time prior
to maturity, at the holders' option, into shares of the Company's common
stock at a conversion price of $9.75 per share, subject to certain
adjustments. In addition, holders who converted prior to July 1, 1999 were
entitled to receive a payment, in cash or the Company's common stock (at the
Company's option) generally equal to 50% of the interest otherwise payable
from the date of conversion through July 1, 1999. As a result of conversions,
only $4,600,000 principal amount of the 7% Convertible Subordinated
Debentures remained outstanding at December 31, 1999.

DAWSON 9 3/8% SENIOR NOTES

In February 1997, Dawson issued $140,000,000 9 3/8% Senior Notes due 2007
(the "Dawson 9 3/8% Senior Notes"). As the result of the Dawson acquisition,
the Company assumed Dawson's obligations under the Dawson 9 3/8% Senior Notes
which were equally and ratably secured with the obligations under the Senior
Credit Facility. As a result of mandatory tender offer made in connection
with the Dawson acquisition, only $1,406,000 principal amount of the Dawson 9
3/8% Senior Notes remained outstanding at December 31, 1999.

                      RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

The Financial Accounting Standards Board has recently issued the following
accounting standards which will be adopted by the Company in the future.

In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities" which, as amended, is effective for
quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. This statement
establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and
for hedging activities. The Company is currently evaluating what effect, if
any, this statement will have on the Company's financial statements. The
Company will adopt this statement no later than July 1, 2000.

                                 YEAR 2000 ISSUE

The Company has initially incurred no significant problems related to the
Year 2000 issue. However, the Company has not fully utilized all functions
and processors of its systems and accordingly cannot be sure that all of its
systems will be free of Year 2000 issues. Also, the Company has no assurance
that third parties have not incurred Year 2000 issues that may affect the
Company.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Special Note: Certain statements set forth below under this caption
constitute "forward-looking statements". See "Special Note Regarding
Forward-Looking Statements" for additional factors relating to such
statements.

The primary objective of the following information is to provide
forward-looking quantitative and qualitative information about the Company's
potential exposure to market risk. The term "market risk" refers to the risk
of loss arising from adverse changes in foreign currency exchange, interest
rates and oil and gas prices. The disclosures are not meant to be precise
indicators of expected future losses, but rather indicators of reasonably
possible losses. This forward-looking information provides indicators of how
the Company views and manages its ongoing market risk exposures.

                               INTEREST RATE RISK

At December 31, 1999, Key had long-term debt outstanding of $710,960,000. Of
this amount $366,725,000 or 52%, bears interest at fixed rates as follows:

The remaining $344,235,000 of debt outstanding as of December 31, 1999 bears
interest at floating rates which averaged approximately 10.03% at December
31, 1999. A 10% increase in short-term interest rates on the floating-rate
debt outstanding at December 31, 1999 would equal approximately 100 basis
points. Such an increase in interest rates would increase Key's fiscal 2000
interest expense by approximately $3.4 million assuming borrowed amounts
remain outstanding.

The above sensitivity analysis for interest rate risk excludes accounts
receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities because of the
short-term maturity of such instruments.

                              FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK

Key's net assets, net earnings and cash flows from its Argentina subsidiaries
are currently not exposed to foreign currency risk, as Argentina's currency
is tied to the U.S. dollar. Key's net assets, net earnings and cash flows
from its Canadian subsidiary is based on the U.S. dollar equivalent of such
amounts measured in Canadian dollars. Assets and liabilities of the Canadian
operations are translated to U.S. dollars using the applicable exchange rate
as of the end of a reporting period. Revenues, expenses and cash flow are
translated using the average exchange rate during the reporting period.

A 10% change in the Canadian-to-U.S. Dollar exchange rate would not be
material to the net assets, net earnings or cash flows of Key.

                              COMMODITY PRICE RISK

Key's major market risk exposure for its oil and gas production operations is
in the pricing applicable to its oil and gas sales. Realized pricing is
primarily driven by the prevailing worldwide price for crude oil and spot
market for natural gas. Pricing for oil and gas production has been volatile
and unpredictable for several years.

Key periodically enters into financial hedging activities with respect to a
portion of its projected oil and natural gas production through commodity
option contracts whereby Key will receive a fixed price for its production if
the market price is in excess of the contract's stated price. Key pays a
premium for its option contracts. Such premiums are amortized to oil and gas
revenues over the life of the related option contracts. These financial
hedging activities are intended to support oil and natural gas prices at
targeted levels and to manage Key's exposure to oil and gas price
fluctuations. Realized gains from the settlement of these financial hedging
instruments are recognized in oil and gas sales when the associated
production occurs. The gains and losses realized as a result of these hedging
activities are substantially offset in the cash market when the hedged
commodity is delivered.

As of December 31, 1999, Key had oil and gas price hedging instruments in
place which represented 22,000 barrels of oil production per month and
approximately 100,000 Mmbtu of gas production per month. The total fiscal
2000 hedged oil and gas volumes represent approximately 137% and 56%,
respectively, of expected calendar year total production. A 10% increase in
the index price of oil or gas from their levels at December 31, 1999 would
have no impact on the Company's net assets, net earnings or cash flows (as
derived from the commodity option contracts), as the put options outstanding
at December 31, 1999 are not "in-the-money".

                                       TO
                                    AGREEMENT

         This is Amendment No. 1, dated as of December 1, 1999, to the Agreement
made and entered into as of the 2nd day of August, 1999, by and between Francis
D. John, as Borrower, and Key Energy Services, Inc., as Lender, (the
"Agreement"). Unless the context otherwise requires, defined terms used in this
Amendment No. 1 shall have the meaning ascribed to them as set forth in the
Agreement.

                                   BACKGROUND

         A. The Borrower and Lender have entered into the Agreement pursuant to
which the Lender has agreed to forgive an aggregate of $5,000,000, together with
accrued interest thereon, which has been borrowed by the Borrower from the
Lender in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth therein.

         B. After further deliberations and discussions by and among the members
of the Board of Directors (the "Board")of the Lender, as well as discussions by
members of the Board with the Borrower, the Borrower and Lender have determined
that it would be in the best interests of the Lender and its shareholders to
amend the terms of the Agreement to provide that none of the Indebtedness of
Borrower to Lender shall be forgiven or cancelled unless and until the price of
the Lender's shares of common stock, par value $.10 per share (the "Common
Stock"), reaches $12.00 per share on any trading day from and after the date
hereof.

         NOW, THEREFORE, intending to be legally bound, the Borrower and the
Lender hereby agree as follows:

         (I). AMENDMENT TO SECTION 1 OF THE AGREEMENT. Section 1 of the
Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the old Section 1 from the Agreement and
substituting therefor a new Section 1 all as set forth below:

             "1. FORGIVENESS/CANCELLATION OF INDEBTEDNESS; CONDITION THERETO.
(a) Subject to the satisfaction of the condition set forth in Section 1(b)
below, except (i) in the event of an acceleration in Borrower's obligation to
repay the outstanding Indebtedness and make payment on any of the outstanding
Notes as a result of (A) the termination of the Borrower's employment by the
Lender for "Cause" (as defined and described below) or (B) the voluntary
termination by the Borrower of his employment with the Lender for any reason or
(ii) in the event of an acceleration in the Lender's obligation to
forgive/cancel the Indebtedness and cancel the Notes as a result of (A) the
Borrower's termination of his employment with the Lender as a result of "Good
Reason", "Change in Control" or "Disability" (as defined and described below) or
(B) the death of the Borrower, the Lender hereby agrees that, for so long as the
Borrower remains employed by the Lender, the Indebtedness will be
forgiven/cancelled in the proportions and amounts and on the dates set forth
below:
