ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.
On June 18, 1998, Schlumberger Technology Corporation, a Texas
corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Schlumberger Limited ("STC"),
Schlumberger OFS, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of
STC ("Sub"), and Camco International, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Camco"),
entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") providing
for the merger of Sub with and into Camco, with Camco surviving as a wholly
owned subsidiary of STC (the "Merger"). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the
stockholders of Camco will receive 1.18 shares of common stock, par value $.01
per share, of Schlumberger ("Schlumberger Common Stock") for each share of
common stock, par value $.01 per share, of Camco ("Camco Common Stock"). In
addition, outstanding options to acquire shares of Camco Common Stock will be
converted into options to acquire 1.18 times as many shares of Schlumberger
Common Stock at an exercise price per share equal to the old exercise price
divided by 1.18. Based on the number of shares of Camco Common Stock and
options to acquire Camco Common Stock outstanding on June 8, 1998, approximately
44.8 million shares of Schlumberger Common Stock will be issued in the Merger
and an additional 2.4 million shares of Schlumberger Common Stock will be
reserved for issuance pursuant to outstanding Camco options.
Closing under the Merger Agreement is conditioned on, among other
things, approval by Camco's stockholders and receipt of all regulatory
approvals, including expiration or termination of the waiting period prescribed
by the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended. It is
intended that the Merger qualify as a tax-free reorganization for federal income
tax purposes and as a pooling of interests for accounting purposes.
Under the Merger Agreement, Camco must pay a termination fee of $90
million if (1) Camco receives a superior proposal (as defined in the Merger
Agreement) and elects to terminate the agreement, (2) the Camco Board of
Directors recommends or proposes to recommend an alternate proposal and STC
exercises it right to terminate the agreement, (3) the Camco Board withdraws,
terminates or modifies its recommendation of the agreement in an adverse manner,
STC terminates the agreement and Camco consummates an alternative transaction on
or before September 30, 1999 or (4) there is an alternative proposal
outstanding, the Camco stockholders do not approve the Merger and Camco
consummates an alternative proposal on or before September 30, 1999.
Pursuant to the Transaction Agreement, Schlumberger Limited agrees to
sell to STC such number of shares of Schlumberger Common Stock as are required
to be delivered to stockholders of Camco under the Merger Agreement and to
register those shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The description of the terms and provisions of the Merger Agreement in this
report is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement and the
Transaction Agreement that are filed as exhibits hereto and are incorporated
herein by this reference. A copy of the press release announcing the signing of
the Merger Agreement is filed as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by this
reference.

AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER
AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER, dated as of June 18, 1998 (this "Merger
Agreement"), among Schlumberger Technology Corporation, a Texas corporation
("STC"), Schlumberger OFS, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned
subsidiary of STC ("Sub"), and Camco International Inc., a Delaware corporation
("Camco").
WHEREAS, the Boards of Directors of STC, Sub and Camco have each
approved the merger of Sub with and into Camco (the "Merger") upon the terms and
subject to the conditions of this Merger Agreement, thus enabling STC to acquire
all of the stock of Camco solely in exchange for voting stock of Schlumberger
Limited, a Netherlands Antilles corporation and the parent of STC
("Schlumberger");
WHEREAS, for federal income tax purposes, it is intended that the
Merger shall qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section
368(a)(1)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code");
WHEREAS, for accounting purposes, it is intended that the Merger shall
be accounted for as a pooling of interests under the requirements of Opinion No.
16, Business Combinations, of the Accounting Principles Board of the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the "AICPA"), as amended by
Statements of Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB"), and the related
interpretations of the AICPA, FASB, the Emerging Issues Task Force, and the
rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"SEC"); and
WHEREAS, STC, Sub and Camco desire to make certain representations,
warranties, covenants and agreements in connection with the Merger and also to
prescribe various conditions to the Merger;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements herein contained, the
parties agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
THE MERGER
1.1 The Merger; Effective Time of the Merger. Upon the terms and
conditions of this Merger Agreement and in accordance with the Delaware General
Corporation Law (the "DGCL"), Sub shall be merged with and into Camco at the
Effective Time (as hereinafter defined). The Merger shall become effective
immediately when a certificate of merger (the "Certificate of Merger"), prepared
and executed in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DGCL is duly
filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or, if agreed to by
the parties, at such time thereafter as is provided in the Certificate of Merger
(the "Effective Time"). The filing of the Certificate of Merger shall be made
as soon as practicable after the closing of the Merger (the "Closing").
-1-
<PAGE>
1.2 Closing. The Closing shall take place at 10:00 a.m. on a date to be
specified by the parties, which shall be no later than the second business day
after satisfaction (or waiver in accordance with this Merger Agreement) of the
latest to occur of the conditions set forth in Article VI (the "Closing Date"),
at the offices of Baker & Botts, L.L.P., 910 Louisiana, Houston, Texas, unless
another date or place is agreed to in writing by the parties.
1.3 Effects of the Merger.
(a) At the Effective Time: (i) Sub shall be merged with and into
Camco, the separate existence of Sub shall cease and Camco shall continue
as the surviving corporation (Sub and Camco are sometimes referred to
herein as the "Constituent Corporations" and Camco is sometimes referred to
herein as the "Surviving Corporation") and the merger shall have such
effects as are set forth in Section 259 of the DGCL; (ii) the Certificate
of Incorporation of Camco shall be amended to change Camco's authorized
shares of capital stock to 1,000 shares, par value $.001 per share, of
common stock, and so amended shall be the Certificate of Incorporation of
the Surviving Corporation; and (iii) the Bylaws of Camco as in effect
immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the Bylaws of the
Surviving Corporation.
(b) The directors and officers of Sub at the Effective Time shall,
from and after the Effective Time, be the directors and officers of the
Surviving Corporation and shall serve until their successors have been duly
elected or appointed and qualified or until their earlier death,
resignation or removal in accordance with the Surviving Corporation's
Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws.
ARTICLE II
EFFECT OF THE MERGER ON THE CAPITAL STOCK OF THE
CONSTITUENT CORPORATIONS; EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES
2.1 Effect on Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the
Merger and without any action on the part of the holder of any shares of common
stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Camco ("Camco Common Stock") or capital
stock of Sub:
(a) Stock of Sub. Each share of common stock, par value $1.00 per share,
of Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective
Time will be converted into one share of common stock, par value
$.001 per share, of the Surviving Corporation, and the stock of the
Surviving Corporation issued on that conversion will constitute all
of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the
Surviving Corporation.
(b) Cancellation of Treasury Stock and Related Party Stock. Each share
of Camco Common Stock and all other shares of capital stock of Camco
that are owned by Camco as treasury stock and any shares of Camco
Common Stock
-2-
<PAGE>
and all other shares of capital stock of Camco owned in any case by
STC, any entity controlling STC or any wholly owned Subsidiary (as
hereinafter defined) of such entities or by any wholly owned
Subsidiary of Camco shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to
exist and no Schlumberger Common Stock or cash in lieu of fractional
shares shall be delivered or deliverable in exchange therefor. As
used in this Merger Agreement, the word "Subsidiary" means, with
respect to any party, any corporation or other organization, whether
incorporated or unincorporated, of which: (i) such party or any
other Subsidiary of such party is a general partner (excluding
partnerships, the general partnership interests of which are held by
such party or any Subsidiary of such party that do not have a
majority of the voting interest in such partnership); or (ii) at
least a majority of the securities or other interests having by
their terms ordinary voting power to elect a majority of the Board
of Directors or others performing similar functions with respect to
such corporation or other organization is, directly or indirectly,
owned or controlled by such party or by any one or more of its
Subsidiaries, or by such party and any one or more of its
Subsidiaries.
(c) Exchange Ratio for Camco Common Stock. Subject to the provisions of
Section 2.2(e) hereof, each share of Camco Common Stock issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than
shares to be canceled in accordance with Section 2.1(b)) shall, at
the Effective Time and without the requirement of any action by the
holder thereof, be exchanged for and converted into 1.18 (the
"Conversion Number") shares of voting common stock, par value $.01
per share, of Schlumberger ("Schlumberger Common Stock") to be
delivered by Sub pursuant to the Merger. All references in this
Merger Agreement to the Camco Common Stock to be received pursuant
to the Merger shall be deemed to include the Camco Stock Purchase
Rights. All such shares of Camco Common Stock, when so exchanged and
converted, shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be
canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a
certificate representing any such shares shall cease to have any
rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive a
certificate for the shares of Schlumberger Common Stock and cash in
lieu of fractional shares of Schlumberger Common Stock as
contemplated by Section 2.2(e), upon the surrender of such
certificate for shares of Camco Common Stock in accordance with
Section 2.2, without interest.
(d) Conversion of Stock Options. Each outstanding Camco Stock Option (as
defined in Section 5.5) shall be converted as provided in Section
5.5.
(e) Adjustment of Conversion Number. If, subsequent to the date of this
Agreement but prior to the Effective Time, the number of shares of
Schlumberger Common Stock issued and outstanding is changed as a
result
-3-
<PAGE>
of a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend,
recapitalization or other similar transaction, the Conversion Number
and other items dependent thereon shall be appropriately adjusted
herein.
2.2 Exchange of Certificates.
(a) Exchange Agent. As of the Effective Time, Sub shall deposit with
Boston EquiServe LP or such other bank or trust company
designated by STC or another member of the STC Affiliated Group
(as defined below) and reasonably acceptable to Camco (the
"Exchange Agent"), for the benefit of the holders of shares of
Camco Common Stock, for exchange in accordance with this Article
II, through the Exchange Agent, certificates representing the
shares of Schlumberger Common Stock (such shares of Schlumberger
Common Stock, together with any dividends or distributions with
respect thereto, and any cash deposits by STC in order to make
payments in lieu of fractional shares or cash generated by sales
of fractional shares of Schlumberger Common Stock in the open
market pursuant to Section 2.2(e) being hereinafter collectively
referred to as the "Exchange Fund") issuable pursuant to Section
2.1 in exchange for outstanding shares of Camco Common Stock.
The Exchange Agent shall, pursuant to irrevocable instructions,
deliver the Schlumberger Common Stock contemplated to be issued
pursuant to Section 2.1 out of the Exchange Fund. The Exchange
Fund shall not be used for any other purpose. As used in this
Merger Agreement, "STC Affiliated Group" means any entity
controlling STC and any direct or indirect Subsidiary of such
entity or of STC.
(b) Exchange Procedures. As soon as reasonably practicable after the
Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall mail to each holder of
record of a certificate or certificates which, immediately prior
to the Effective Time, represented outstanding shares of Camco
Common Stock (the "Certificates") (other than Camco, STC, any
entity controlling STC or any wholly owned Subsidiaries of any
such entities): (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify
that delivery shall be effected and risk of loss and title to
the Certificates shall pass only upon delivery of the
Certificates to the Exchange Agent, and shall be in such form
and have such other provisions as STC or a designated member of
the STC Affiliated Group may reasonably specify); and (ii)
instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the
Certificates in exchange for certificates representing shares of
Schlumberger Common Stock and any cash in lieu of a fractional
share of Schlumberger Common Stock. Upon surrender of a
Certificate for cancellation to the Exchange Agent or to such
other agent or agents as may be appointed by STC or a designated
member of the STC Affiliated Group and reasonably acceptable to
Camco, together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed,
and any other required documents, the holder of such Certificate
shall be entitled to receive in
-4-
<PAGE>
exchange therefor a certificate representing that number of
whole shares of Schlumberger Common Stock which such holder has
the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of this Article
II and any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Schlumberger
Common Stock as contemplated by Section 2.2(e), and the
Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. In the
event of a transfer of ownership of Camco Common Stock which is
not registered in the transfer records of Camco, a certificate
representing the appropriate number of shares of Schlumberger
Common Stock may be issued to a transferee if the Certificate
representing such Camco Common Stock is presented to the
Exchange Agent accompanied by all documents required to evidence
and effect such transfer and by evidence that any applicable
stock transfer taxes have been paid. Until surrendered as
contemplated by this Section 2.2, each Certificate shall be
deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only
the right to receive upon such surrender the certificate
representing shares of Schlumberger Common Stock and cash in
lieu of any fractional shares of Schlumberger Common Stock as
contemplated by this Section 2.2 and all dividends or other
distributions thereon with a record date after the Effective
Time as contemplated by Section 2.2(c). The Exchange Agent shall
not be entitled to vote or exercise any rights of ownership with
respect to the Schlumberger Common Stock held by it from time to
time hereunder, except that it shall receive and hold all
dividends or other distributions paid or distributed with
respect thereto for the account of persons entitled thereto.
(c) Distributions with Respect to Shares Prior to Exchange of
Certificates. No dividends or other distributions with respect
to Schlumberger Common Stock declared or made after the
Effective Time with a record date after the Effective Time shall
be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate with
respect to the Schlumberger Common Stock represented thereby as
a result of the exchange and conversion provided in Section
2.1(c), and no cash payment in lieu of fractional shares shall
be paid to any such holder pursuant to Section 2.2(e) until the
holder of such Certificate shall surrender such Certificate.
Subject to the effect of applicable laws, following surrender of
any such Certificate, there shall be paid to the holder thereof,
without interest: (i) at the time of such surrender, the amount
of any cash payable in lieu of a fractional share of
Schlumberger Common Stock to which such holder is entitled

(d) No Further Ownership Rights in Camco Common Stock. All shares of
Schlumberger Common Stock issued in exchange for and upon the
conversion of Camco Common Stock in accordance with the terms
hereof (including any cash paid pursuant to Section 2.2(c) or
2.2(e)) shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction
of all rights pertaining to such shares of Camco Common Stock,
subject, however, to the Surviving Corporation's obligation to
pay any dividends or make any other distributions with a record
date prior to the Effective Time that may have been declared or
made by Camco on such shares of Camco Common Stock in accordance
with the terms of this Merger Agreement or prior to the date
hereof and which remain unpaid at the Effective Time, and after
the Effective Time there shall be no further registration of
transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving
Corporation of the shares of Camco Common Stock that were
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after
the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving
Corporation for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged
as provided in this Article II.
(e) No Fractional Shares. No certificates or scrip representing
fractional shares of Schlumberger Common Stock shall be issued
pursuant to this Article II, and, except as provided in this
Section 2.2(e), no dividend or other distribution, stock split
or interest shall relate to any such fractional security, and
such fractional interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to
vote or to any rights of a security holder of Schlumberger. In
lieu of any fractional security, STC shall pay or cause the
Exchange Agent to pay, to each holder of shares of Camco Common
Stock who would otherwise have been entitled to a fraction of a
share of Schlumberger Common Stock pursuant to this Article II,
an amount in cash (without interest) equal to such holder's
proportionate interest in the sum of (i) the fraction of a share
of Schlumberger Common Stock to which such holder would
otherwise have been entitled, multiplied by the closing sale
price per share of Schlumberger Common Stock on the New York
Stock Exchange on the last trading day immediately preceding the
date of the Effective Time, and (ii) the aggregate dividends or
other distributions that are payable with respect to such shares
of Schlumberger Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.2(c) (such
dividends and distributions being herein called the "Fractional
Dividends"). STC shall timely make available to the Exchange
Agent any cash necessary to make payments in lieu of fractional
shares as aforesaid. For purposes of determining whether a
holder of shares of Camco Common Stock is to receive payment in
lieu of fractional shares, all shares of Camco Common Stock held
of record by such holder shall be aggregated.
(f) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund
that remains undistributed to the former stockholders of Camco
for one year after the Effective Time shall be delivered to STC
upon demand, and any
-6-
<PAGE>
stockholders of Camco who have not theretofore complied with
this Article II shall thereafter look only to STC for payment of
their claim for Schlumberger Common Stock or any cash in lieu of
fractional shares of Schlumberger Common Stock and to
Schlumberger for any dividends or distributions with respect to
Schlumberger Common Stock.
(g) No Liability. Neither Camco nor STC or any other member of the
STC Affiliated Group shall be liable to any holder of shares of
Camco Common Stock or Schlumberger Common Stock, as the case may
be, for such shares (or dividends or distributions with respect
thereto) or cash in lieu of fractional shares of Schlumberger
Common Stock delivered to a public official pursuant to any
applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.
ARTICLE III

3.1 Representations and Warranties of Camco. Subject to the exceptions
set forth in the disclosure letter to be delivered to STC and Sub in connection
herewith (the "Camco Disclosure Letter"), Camco represents and warrants to STC
and Sub as follows:
(a) Organization, Standing and Power. Each of Camco and its
Subsidiaries is a corporation, limited liability company or
partnership duly organized, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of its state of incorporation or
organization, has all requisite corporate power and authority to
own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its
business as now being conducted, and is duly qualified and in
good standing to do business in each jurisdiction in which the
business it is conducting, or the operation, ownership or
leasing of its properties, makes such qualification necessary,
other than where the failure to be so organized or so to qualify
(individually or in the aggregate) would not have a Material
Adverse Effect (as defined below) on Camco. Camco has heretofore
delivered to STC complete and correct copies of its Certificate
of Incorporation and Bylaws. Except as set forth in the exhibits
to the Camco SEC Documents (as defined in Section 3.1(d)), Camco
does not own, directly or indirectly, any capital stock or other
ownership interest in any Subsidiary which would be required to
be listed as a Subsidiary of Camco under the rules of the SEC
with the filing by Camco of an Annual Report on Form 10-K. As
used in this Merger Agreement a "Material Adverse Effect" shall
mean any effect or change that is or would be materially adverse
to the business, operations, assets, condition (financial or
otherwise) or results of operations of (i) in respect of Camco,
Camco and its direct and indirect Subsidiaries, taken as a
whole, and (ii) in respect of the STC Affiliated Group, all the
members of the STC Affiliated Group taken as a whole; provided,

of general applicability relating to or effecting creditors' rights and to
general principles of equity and limitations imposed on indemnity

(ii) Except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(c) to the Camco
Disclosure Letter, the execution and delivery of this Merger Agreement does
not, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and
compliance with the provisions hereof will not, conflict with, or result in
any violation of, or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or
both) under, or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation or

Section 897(c)(1)(A)(ii) of the Code.
For purposes of this Merger Agreement, "Taxes" shall mean all federal,
state, local, non-U.S. and other taxes, charges, fees, levies, imposts,
duties, licenses or other assessments, together with any interest,
penalties, additions to tax or additional amounts imposed by any taxing
authority.
(l) Employee Matters; ERISA.
(i) Benefit Plans. Schedule 3.1(l)(i) to the Camco Disclosure
Letter contains a true and complete list of each of the following
items: each employee benefit plan, program or arrangement covering
any current or former officer, director, employee or independent
contractor of Camco (or any of its Subsidiaries) or any of their
dependents or beneficiaries (each, a "Camco Beneficiary") including,
but not limited to, any "employee benefit plan" within the meaning of
Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974,
as amended ("ERISA"), whether or not terminated or covered by ERISA,
if Camco or any of its Subsidiaries could have statutory or
contractual liability with respect thereto on or after the date hereof
but excluding immaterial plans maintained by Subsidiaries of Camco
covering employees located outside the United States where such plans
cover fewer than 100 people. The items described above, together with
each management, employment, deferred compensation, severance, change
in control, bonus or other contract for personal services with or
covering any Camco Beneficiary, whether or not terminated, if Camco or
any of its Subsidiaries could have statutory or contractual liability
with respect thereto on or after the date hereof, are referred to
collectively herein as the "Camco Benefit Plans."
(ii) Contributions and Payments. All material contributions and
other material payments required to have been made by Camco or any entity
required to be aggregated therewith pursuant to Code Section 414 (a "Camco
ERISA Affiliate") with respect to any Camco Benefit Plan (or to any person
pursuant to the terms thereof) have been or will be timely made and all
such amounts properly accrued
-16-
<PAGE>
through the date of this Merger Agreement have been reflected in the
financial statements of Camco included in the Camco SEC Documents.
(iii) Qualification; Compliance. Each Camco Benefit Plan that is
intended to be "qualified" within the meaning of Code Section 401(a)
has been determined by the IRS to be so qualified or the applicable
remedial period applicable to the Plan will not have ended prior to
the Effective Time, and, to the best knowledge of Camco, no event or
condition exists or has occurred that would reasonably be expected to
result in the revocation or denial of any such determination which
would have a Material Adverse Effect on Camco. With respect to each
Camco Benefit Plan, Camco and each Camco ERISA Affiliate are in
compliance with, and each Camco Benefit Plan and related source of
benefit payment is and has been operated in compliance with, all
applicable laws, rules and regulations governing such plan or source,
including, without limitation, ERISA, the Code and applicable local
law (including non-U.S. law), except for violations that would not
have a Material Adverse Effect on Camco. To the best knowledge of
Camco, except as set forth in Schedule 3.1(l)(iii), no Camco Benefit
Plan is subject to any ongoing audit, investigation, or other
administrative proceeding of the IRS, the Department of Labor, or any
other federal, state, or local governmental entity or is scheduled to
be subject to such an audit investigation or proceeding.
(iv) Liabilities. With respect to the Camco Benefit Plans,
individually and in the aggregate, and, to the best knowledge of
Camco, there exists no condition or set of circumstances that could
subject Camco or any Camco ERISA Affiliate to any liability arising
under the Code, ERISA or any other applicable law (including, without
limitation, any liability to or under any such plan or to the Pension
Benefit Guaranty Corporation ("PBGC"), or under any indemnity
agreement to which Camco or any Camco ERISA Affiliate is a party),
which liability, excluding liability for benefit claims, funding
obligations and PBGC insurance premiums, each payable in the ordinary
course, would have a Material Adverse Effect on Camco. No claim,
action or litigation has been made, commenced or, to the best
knowledge of Camco, threatened, by or against Camco or any of its
Subsidiaries with respect to any Camco Benefit Plan (other than for
benefits or PBGC premiums payable in the ordinary course) that would
have a Material Adverse Effect on Camco.
(v) Retiree Welfare Plans. Except as disclosed in Schedule
3.1(l)(v) to the Camco Disclosure Letter, no Camco Benefit Plan that
is a "welfare plan" (within the meaning of ERISA Section 3(1))
provides benefits for any retired or former employees (other than as
required pursuant to ERISA Section 601).
(vi) Payments Resulting from Merger. Except as disclosed on
Schedules 3.1(k)(v), 3.1(l)(vi), 4.1(h) and 5.14 to the Camco
Disclosure Letter, the consummation or announcement of any transaction
contemplated by this Merger Agreement will not (either alone or upon
the occurrence of any additional or further
-17-
<PAGE>
acts or events) result in (A) any payment (whether of severance pay or
otherwise) becoming due from the Company or Camco or any of their
Subsidiaries to any Camco Beneficiary or to the trustee under any
"rabbi trust" or similar arrangement, or (B) any benefit under any
Camco Benefit Plan being established or increased, or becoming
accelerated, vested or payable.
(vii) Funded Status of Plans. Each Camco Benefit Plan that is
subject to either the minimum funding requirements of ERISA Section
302 or to Title IV of ERISA has assets that, as of the date hereof,
have a fair market value not less than the present value of the
accrued benefit obligations thereunder on a termination basis, as of
the date hereof, based on the actuarial methods, tables and
assumptions utilized by such plan's independent actuary in preparing
such plan's most recently prepared actuarial valuation report, except
to the extent that applicable law would require the use of different
actuarial assumptions if such plan was to be terminated as of the date
hereof, in which case those different assumptions shall apply for
purposes of this representation. Camco and its Subsidiaries have no
unfunded liabilities, as determined under local funding requirements,
with respect to any Camco Benefit Plans that cover such non-U.S.
employees which would, in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse
Effect on Camco.
(viii) Multiemployer Plans. Except as described on Schedule
3.1(l)(viii) to the Camco Disclosure Letter, no Camco Benefit Plan is
or was a "multiemployer plan" (within the meaning of ERISA Section
4001(a)(3)), a multiple employer plan described in Code Section
413(c), or a "multiple employer welfare arrangement" (within the
meaning of ERISA Section 3(40)). Except as disclosed in Schedule
3.1(l)(viii) to the Camco Disclosure Letter, neither Camco nor any
Camco ERISA Affiliate has been obligated to contribute to, or
otherwise has or has had any liability with respect to, any
multiemployer plan, multiple employer plan, or multiple employer
welfare arrangement.
(m) Labor Matters. Except as set forth in Schedule 3.1(m) to the
Camco Disclosure Letter,
(i) neither Camco nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to any
collective bargaining agreement or other current labor agreement with
any labor union or organization, and to the knowledge of Camco and its
Subsidiaries there is no current union representation dispute
involving employees of Camco or any of its Subsidiaries nor does Camco
or any of its Subsidiaries know of any activity or proceeding of any
labor organization (or representative thereof) or employee group (or
representative thereof) to organize any such employees;
(ii) there is no unfair labor practice charge or grievance
arising out of a collective bargaining agreement or other grievance
procedure against Camco or any
-18-
<PAGE>
of its Subsidiaries pending, or, to the knowledge of Camco or any of
its Subsidiaries, threatened, that has, or would have, a Material
Adverse Effect on Camco;
(iii) there is no complaint, lawsuit or proceeding in any forum
by or on behalf of any present or former employee, any applicant for
employment or any classes of the foregoing alleging breach of any
express or implied contract of employment, any law or regulation
governing employment or the termination thereof or other
discriminatory, wrongful or tortious conduct in connection with the
employment relationship against Camco or any of its Subsidiaries
pending, or, to the knowledge of Camco or any of its Subsidiaries,
threatened, that has, or would have, a Material Adverse Effect on
Camco;
(iv) there is no strike, dispute, slowdown, work stoppage or
lockout pending, or, to the knowledge of Camco or any of its
Subsidiaries, threatened, ]against or involving Camco or any of its
Subsidiaries that has, or could have, a Material Adverse Effect on
Camco;
(v) Camco and each of its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all
applicable laws respecting employment and employment practices, terms
and conditions of employment, wages, hours of work and occupational
safety and health, except for non-compliance that does not have, and
would not have, a Material Adverse Effect on Camco; and
(vi) there is no proceeding, claim, suit, action or governmental
investigation pending or, to the knowledge of Camco or any of its
Subsidiaries, threatened, in respect to which any current or former
director, officer, employee or agent of Camco or any of its
Subsidiaries is or may be entitled to claim indemnification from Camco
or any of its Subsidiaries (A) pursuant to their respective charters
or bylaws, (B) as provided in any indemnification agreement to which
Camco or any Subsidiary of Camco is a party or (C) pursuant to
applicable law that has, or would have, a Material Adverse Effect on
Camco.
(n) Intangible Property. Camco and its Subsidiaries possess or have
adequate rights to use all trademarks, trade names, patents,
service marks, brand marks, brand names, computer programs,
database, industrial designs, know how, trade secrets,
copyrights and other intellectual property rights which are
material to the condition or conduct of the business operations
of Camco and its Subsidiaries (collectively, the "Camco
Intangible Property"). Except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(n) to
the Camco Disclosure Letter, all of the Camco Intangible
Property is owned by Camco or its Subsidiaries free and clear of
any and all liens, claims or encumbrances, except those the
failure to so own would not have a Material Adverse Effect on
Camco. To the knowledge of Camco, the operation of the
businesses of each of Camco or its Subsidiaries does not, in any
material respect, conflict with, infringe upon, violate or
-19-
<PAGE>
interfere with or constitute an appropriation of any right,
title, interest or goodwill, including, without limitation, any
intellectual property right, trade secret, trademark, trade
name, patent, service mark, brand mark, brand name, computer
program, database, industrial design, copyright or any pending
application therefor of any other person and there have been no
claims made in connection therewith and neither Camco nor any of
its Subsidiaries has received any notice of any claim or
otherwise knows that any of the Camco Intangible Property is
invalid or conflicts with the rights of any other person or has
not been used or enforced or has been failed to be used or
enforced in a manner that would result in the abandonment,
cancellation or unenforceability of any of the Camco Intangible
Property and would individually or in the aggregate result in a
Material Adverse Effect on Camco. All failures of the
representations and warranties set forth in this Section 3.1(n)
to be true, in the aggregate, would not result in a Material
Adverse Effect on Camco.

and accounting officers, prior to the date hereof, neither Camco
nor any of its Subsidiaries has taken any action that (without

properties in which Camco or any of the Subsidiaries has leasehold
interests, are free and clear of all liens, other than those set forth

Rights Agreement so that none of the execution and delivery of
this Merger Agreement, the conversion of shares of Camco Common
Stock into the right to receive Schlumberger Common Stock in
accordance with Article II of this Merger Agreement, and the
consummation of the Merger or any other transaction contemplated
hereby will cause (A) the Camco Rights to become exercisable
under the Rights Agreement, (B) any member of the STC Affiliated
Group to be deemed an "Acquiring Person" (as defined in the
Rights Agreement), (C) the provisions of Section 11 or Section

complete copy of the Rights Agreement, as amended to date.

good standing to do business in each jurisdiction in which the
business it is conducting, or the operation, ownership or
leasing of its properties, makes such qualification necessary,
other than in such jurisdictions where the failure to be so

would not have a Material Adverse Effect on the STC Affiliated
Group.

does not, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby
and compliance with the provisions hereof will not, conflict with, or
result in any violation of, or default (with or without notice or
lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of termination,
cancellation or acceleration of any obligation or to the loss of a

<PAGE>
any judgment, order, decree, statute, law, ordinance, rule or
regulation applicable to STC or Sub or any of properties or assets,
other than, in the case of clause (B) or (C), any such conflicts,
violations, defaults, rights, liens, security interests, charges or
encumbrances that, individually or in the aggregate, would not have a
Material Adverse Effect on the STC Affiliated Group, materially impair
the ability of STC or Sub to perform its respective obligations
hereunder or prevent in any material respect the consummation of any
of the transactions contemplated hereby.
(iii) No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or
registration, declaration or filing with, or permit from any
Governmental Entity is required by or with respect to STC or any other
member of the STC Affiliated Group in connection with the execution
and delivery of this Merger Agreement by STC and Sub or the

expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period with
respect thereto; (B) the filing with the SEC of the Proxy Statement,

pending, or, to the best knowledge of STC, threatened against or
affecting any member of the STC Affiliated Group ("STC
Litigation"), or (ii) judgment, decree, injunction, rule or
order of any Governmental Entity or arbitrator outstanding
against STC or any Subsidiary of STC, that would (in any case)
have a Material Adverse Effect on the STC Affiliated Group or
prevent STC or Sub from consummating the transactions
contemplated by this Merger Agreement.
(e) Accounting Matters. To the best knowledge of STC's financial and
accounting officers, prior to the date hereof, no member of the
STC Affiliated Group has taken any action that (without giving
effect to any action taken or agreed to be taken by Camco or any
of its Subsidiaries) would jeopardize the treatment of the
business combination to be effected by the Merger as a pooling
of interests for accounting purposes.
-26-
<PAGE>
(f) Beneficial Ownership of Camco Common Stock. As of the date
hereof, neither STC nor any member of the STC Affiliated Group

fail to qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a)(1)(B)
of the Code.

4.2 No Solicitation.
(a) Camco will not, and will not authorize or permit any of its
officers, directors, agents and other representatives or those
of any of its Subsidiaries (collectively, "Camco
Representatives") to, and will not authorize any
-30-
<PAGE>
employee of Camco or any of its Subsidiaries to and on becoming
aware of will take all reasonable actions to stop the employee
from continuing to, directly or indirectly, solicit or initiate
or encourage (including by way of furnishing information) any
prospective buyer or the making of any proposal that
constitutes, or may reasonably be expected to lead to, an
Acquisition Proposal (as defined herein) from any person, or
engage in any discussions or negotiations relating thereto or
accept any Acquisition Proposal; provided, however, that,
notwithstanding any other provision of this Merger Agreement,
Camco may, prior to the vote of the stockholders of Camco for
approval of the Merger, but not thereafter if the Merger is
approved thereby, in response and only in response to a written
request made without any solicitation, initiation,
encouragement, discussion or negotiation by Camco or any Camco
Representatives, furnish information concerning Camco to any
person or "group" (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the
Exchange Act) pursuant to a confidentiality agreement on
substantiality the same terms (provided that the Camco Board of
Directors may, if required by its fiduciary duties, permit an
offer to be received from such group in accordance with the
terms of such confidentiality agreement) as the Confidentiality
Agreements between Camco and STC described in Section 5.1
hereof, provided that the Board of Directors of Camco shall
conclude in good faith on the basis of the written advice of
outside counsel to Camco that such action is necessary in order
for the Board of Directors of Camco to act in a manner that is
consistent with its fiduciary obligations under applicable law.
Camco shall immediately cease and cause to be terminated any
existing solicitation, initiation, encouragement, activity,
discussion or negotiation with any parties conducted heretofore
by Camco or any Camco Representatives with respect to any
Acquisition Proposal existing on the date hereof. Camco will
promptly notify STC of the pendency of any negotiations
respecting, or the receipt of, any Acquisition Proposal. It is
understood that any violation of this Section 4.2 by Camco or
any Camco Representative shall be deemed a material breach of
this Merger Agreement by Camco. As used in this Merger
Agreement, "Acquisition Proposal" shall mean any proposal or
offer, other than a proposal or offer by STC or another member
of the STC Affiliated Group, for a tender or exchange offer, a
merger, consolidation or other business combination involving
Camco or any Significant Subsidiary of Camco or any proposal to
acquire in any manner a substantial (15% or more) equity
interest in, or substantially all of the assets of, Camco or any
of its Significant Subsidiaries.
(b) Neither the Board of Directors of Camco nor any committee
thereof shall, except in connection with the termination of this
Merger Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(a), (b) or (d), (i)
withdraw or modify, or propose to withdraw or modify, in a
manner adverse to Schlumberger or STC, the approval or
recommendation by the Board of Directors of Camco or any such
committee
-31-
<PAGE>
of this Merger Agreement or the Merger, or take any action
having such effect, or (ii) approve or recommend, or propose to
approve or recommend, any Acquisition Proposal. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in the event the Board of Directors of Camco
receives an Acquisition Proposal that, in the exercise of its
fiduciary obligations (as determined in good faith by a majority
of the disinterested members thereof based on the advice of
outside counsel), it determines to be a Superior Proposal, the
Board of Directors may withdraw or modify its approval or
recommendation of this Merger Agreement or the Merger and may
(subject to the following sentence) terminate this Merger
Agreement, in each case at any time after midnight on the second
business day following STC's receipt of written notice (a
"Notice of Superior Proposal") advising STC that the Board of
Directors has received an Acquisition Proposal which it has
determined to be a Superior Proposal, specifying the material
terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal (including the
proposed financing for such proposal and a copy of any documents
conveying such proposal) and identifying the party making such
Superior Proposal. Camco may terminate this Merger Agreement
pursuant to the preceding sentence only if the stockholders of
Camco shall not yet have voted upon the Merger and Camco shall
have paid to STC the Termination Fee (as defined in Section
7.2(b)). Any of the foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding,
Camco may engage in discussions with any party that has made an
unsolicited takeover proposal for the limited purpose of
determining whether such proposal (as opposed to any further
negotiated proposal) is a Superior Proposal. Nothing contained
herein shall prohibit Camco from taking and disclosing to its
stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) following
STC's receipt of a Notice of Superior Proposal.
(c) For purposes of this Merger Agreement, a "Superior Proposal"
means any bona fide proposal to acquire, directly or indirectly,
all of the Camco Common Stock then outstanding or all or
substantially all of the assets of Camco and its Subsidiaries,
and otherwise on terms which a majority of the disinterested
members of the Board of Directors of Camco determines in its
good faith reasonable judgment (based on the written advice of a
financial advisor of national recognized reputation, a copy of
which shall be provided to STC) to be more favorable to Camco's
stockholders than the Merger. In reaching such good faith
determination, the Board of Directors of Camco will give
significant consideration to whether an Acquisition Proposal
includes definite financing.
4.3 Pooling of Interests. If so requested by STC, Camco shall, and shall
cause its independent accountants and other representatives to, fully cooperate
with STC, its independent accountants and other representatives in seeking to
obtain confirmation from the SEC that the Merger may be accounted for as a
"pooling of interests."

Camco nor any of its Subsidiaries or any representatives of any of the foregoing
entities will use any information obtained pursuant to this Section 5.1 for any
purpose unrelated to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Merger Agreement and the Transaction Agreement. STC agrees that no member of
the STC Affiliated Group, or any representative of any member of the STC
Affiliated Group will use any information obtained pursuant to this Section 5.1
for any purpose unrelated to the consummation of the transactions contemplated
by this Merger Agreement and the Transaction Agreement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, neither Camco nor STC shall be required to give the other party any
information that is subject to a confidentiality agreement and that relates
primarily to a party other than Camco and its subsidiaries on the one hand or a
member of the STC Affiliated Group on the other. The Confidentiality Agreements
dated as of May 11, 1998 between STC and Camco (the "Confidentiality
Agreements") shall apply with respect to information furnished thereunder or
hereunder and any other activities contemplated thereby.

stockholders to be held as promptly as practicable after the date hereof for the
purpose of voting upon this Merger Agreement and the Merger. Subject to

to its stockholders approval of such matters and not rescind such recommendation
and shall use its best efforts to obtain approval and adoption of this Merger
Agreement and the Merger by its stockholders. Camco shall use all reasonable
efforts to hold such meeting as soon as practicable after the date upon which
the S-4 becomes effective.
5.3 Legal Conditions to Merger.
(i) Except as otherwise provided herein, each of Camco, STC and Sub
will take all reasonable actions necessary to comply promptly
with all legal requirements that may be imposed on such party
with respect to the Merger (including, without limitation,
furnishing all information required under the HSR Act and in
connection with approvals of or filings with any other
Governmental Entity) and will promptly cooperate with and
furnish
-33-
<PAGE>
information to each other in connection with any such
requirements imposed upon any of them or any of their
Subsidiaries in connection with the Merger. Each of Camco and
STC will, and will cause its respective Subsidiaries to, take
all actions necessary to obtain (and will cooperate with each
other in obtaining) any consent, acquiescence, authorization,
order or approval of, or any exemption or nonopposition by, any
Governmental Entity or court required to be obtained or made by
Camco, STC or any of their Subsidiaries in connection with the
Merger or the taking of any action contemplated thereby or by
this Merger Agreement, including complying with any requests or
orders made by the Justice Department or the Federal Trade
Commission in connection with the Merger.
(ii) Each of the parties hereto shall file a premerger notification
and report form under the HSR Act with respect to the Merger as
promptly as reasonably possible following execution and delivery
of this Agreement. Each of the parties agrees to use reasonable
efforts to promptly respond to any request for additional
information pursuant to Section (e)(1) of the HSR Act. Except as
otherwise required by United States regulatory considerations,
Camco will furnish to STC copies of all correspondence, filings
or communications (or memoranda setting forth the substance
thereof (collectively, "Company HSR Documents")) between Camco,
or any of its respective representatives, on the one hand, and
any governmental entity, or members of the staff of such agency
or authority, on the other hand, with respect to this Agreement
or the Merger; provided; however, that (x) with respect to
documents and other materials filed by or
-34-
<PAGE>
on behalf of Camco with the Antitrust Division of the Department
of Justice, the Federal Trade Commission, or any state attorneys
general that are available for review by STC, copies will not be
required to be provided to STC and (y) with respect to any Camco
HSR Documents (1) that contain any information which, in the
reasonable judgment of Fulbright & Jaworski L.L.P., should not
be furnished to STC because of antitrust considerations or (2)
relating to a request for additional information pursuant to
Section (e)(1) of the HSR Act, the obligation of Camco to
furnish any such Camco HSR Documents to STC shall be satisfied
by the delivery of such Camco HSR Documents on a confidential
basis to Baker & Botts, L.L.P., pursuant to a confidentiality
agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to STC.
Except as otherwise required by United States regulatory
considerations, STC will furnish to Camco copies of all
correspondence, filings or communications (or memoranda setting
forth the substance thereof (collectively, "STC HSR Documents"))
between STC or any of its representatives, on the one hand, and
any Governmental Entity, or member of the staff of such agency
or authority, on the other hand, and any Governmental Entity, or
member of the staff of such agency or authority, on the other
hand, with respect to this Agreement or the Merger; provided,
however, that (x) with respect to documents and other materials
filed by or on behalf of STC with the Antitrust Division of the
Department of Justice, the Federal Trade Commission, or any
state attorneys general that are available for review by Camco,
copies will not be required to be provided to Camco, and (y)
with respect to any STC HSR Documents (1) that contain
information which, in the reasonable judgment of Baker & Botts,
L.L.P., should not be furnished to Camco because of antitrust
considerations or (2) relating to a request for additional
information pursuant to Section (e)(1) of the HSR Act, the
obligation of STC to furnish any such STC HSR Documents to Camco
shall be satisfied by the delivery of such STC HSR Documents on
a confidential basis to Fulbright & Jaworski L.L.P. pursuant to
a confidentiality agreement in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to Camco.
(iii) In the event that any governmental body with jurisdiction of
this Merger shall require any member of the STC Affiliated Group
to agree to take or not to take any action as a condition to
approving or not objecting to the Merger, STC will take such
action (A) if the loss in annual revenues to the Surviving
Corporation would reasonably be expected not to exceed $75
million during the ensuing twelve months following the Closing,
or (B) if STC otherwise considers it reasonable and appropriate
in the circumstances to take such action.
5.4 Agreements of Others. No later than five days prior to the day on
which the meeting of stockholders of Camco to approve the Merger is held, Camco
shall use its best efforts to cause each person who STC reasonably believes to
be an affiliate of Camco within the meaning of Rule 145 of the General Rules and
Regulations of the SEC under the Securities Act, after consultation with Camco
and its legal counsel, to deliver (a) a written agreement, in the form to be
approved by STC and Camco, that such persons will not sell, pledge, transfer or
otherwise dispose of any shares of Schlumberger Common Stock issued to such
persons pursuant to the Merger or any other shares of Schlumberger Common Stock
that such persons control the disposition of, except pursuant to an effective
registration statement or in compliance with Rule 145 or an exemption from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act and (b) a written agreement, in
the form to be approved by STC and Camco, that such persons will not sell or in
any other way reduce his or her risk relative to any shares of Schlumberger
Common Stock received in the Merger (within the meaning of Section 201.01 of the
SEC's Financial Reporting Release No. 1), until such time as financial results
(including combined sales and net income) covering at least 30 days of post-
merger operations have been published, except as permitted by Staff Accounting
Bulletin No. 76 (or any successor thereto) issued by the SEC.
5.5 Stock Options. At the Effective Time, each outstanding option to
purchase Camco Common Stock and any stock appreciation rights related thereto
that has been granted pursuant to the Camco Stock Plans ("Camco Stock Option"),
whether vested or unvested, shall be deemed to constitute an option to acquire,
on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such Camco Stock
Option, a number of shares of Schlumberger Common Stock equal to the number of
-35-
<PAGE>
shares of Camco Common Stock purchasable pursuant to such Camco Stock Option
multiplied by the Conversion Number, at a price per share equal to the per-share
exercise price for the shares of Camco Common Stock purchasable pursuant to such
Camco Stock Option divided by the Conversion Number; provided, however, that in
the case of any Camco Stock Option to which Code Section 421 applies by reason
of its qualification under any of the Code Sections 422-424, the exercise price
and number of shares subject to such option shall be determined in a manner that
meets the requirements for issuing or assuming a stock option in a transaction
to which Code Section 424(a) applies and provided further, that the number of
shares of Schlumberger Common Stock that may be purchased upon exercise of such
Camco Stock Option shall not include any fractional share and, upon exercise of
such Camco Stock Option, a cash payment shall be made for any fractional share
based upon the closing price of a share of Schlumberger Common Stock on the NYSE
on the last trading day of the calendar month immediately preceding the date of
exercise.
5.6 Indemnification; Directors' and Officers' Insurance.
(a) Camco shall, and from and after the Effective Time, STC and the
Surviving Corporation shall, indemnify, defend and hold harmless
each person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the
date hereof or who becomes prior to the Effective Time, an
officer or director of Camco or any of its Subsidiaries or an
employee of Camco or any of its Subsidiaries who acts as a
fiduciary under any Camco Benefit Plans (the "Indemnified
Parties") against all losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses
(including attorneys' fees), liabilities or judgments or amounts
that are paid in settlement with the approval of the
indemnifying party (which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld) of or in connection with any threatened or actual
claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation based in whole
or in part on or arising in whole or in part out of the fact
that such person is or was a director, officer or such employee
of Camco or any Subsidiary, whether pertaining to any matter
existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time and
whether asserted or claimed prior to, or at or after, the
Effective Time (including arising out of or relating to the
Merger, the consummation of the transactions contemplated
herein, and any action taken in connection therewith)
("Indemnified Liabilities"). Any Indemnified Party wishing to
claim indemnification under this Section 5.6, upon learning of
any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, shall
notify Camco (or after the Effective Time, STC and the Surviving
Corporation), but the failure so to notify shall not relieve a
party from any liability that it may have under this Section
5.6, except to the extent such failure materially prejudices
such party. The Indemnified Parties as a group may retain only
one law firm to represent them with respect to each such matter
unless there is, under applicable standards of professional
conduct, a conflict on any significant issue between the
positions of any two or more Indemnified Parties.
-36-
<PAGE>
(b) STC shall use its reasonable best efforts to purchase and
maintain in effect for the benefit of the Indemnified Parties
for a period of six years after the Effective Time, directors'
and officers' liability insurance of at least the same coverage
and amounts containing terms and conditions that are no less
advantageous in any material respect to the Indemnified Parties
than that maintained by Camco and its Subsidiaries as of the
date of this Merger Agreement with respect to matters arising
before the Effective Time, provided that STC shall not be
required to pay an annual premium for such insurance in excess
of two times the last annual premium paid by Camco prior to the
date hereof, but in such case shall purchase as much coverage as
possible for such amount.
(c) All rights to indemnification for acts or omissions occurring
prior to the Effective Time now existing in favor of the
Indemnified Parties as provided in the Certificate of
Incorporation or by-laws of Camco or its subsidiaries and in any
indemnification agreements to which they are parties shall
survive the Merger, and the Surviving Corporation shall continue
such indemnification rights for acts or omissions prior to the
Effective Time in full force and effect in accordance with their
terms and STC shall be financially responsible therefor. The
provisions of this Section 5.6 are intended to be for the
benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, the parties hereto and
each Indemnified Party, and his or her heirs and
representatives.
5.7 Agreement to Defend. In the event any claim, action, suit,
investigation or other proceeding by any governmental body or other person or
other legal or administrative proceeding is commenced that questions the
validity or legality of the transactions contemplated hereby or seeks damages in
connection therewith, the parties hereto agree to cooperate and use their
reasonable efforts to defend against and respond thereto.
5.8 Accounting Matters. During the period from the date of this Merger
Agreement through the Effective Time, unless the parties shall otherwise agree
in writing, neither STC nor Camco or any of their respective Subsidiaries shall
take or fail to take any reasonable action which action or failure to act would
knowingly jeopardize the treatment of Camco's combination with Sub as a pooling
of interests for accounting purposes and each of STC and Camco will take all
reasonable steps to permit the Merger to be treated as a pooling of interest for
accounting purposes.
5.9 Public Announcements. STC and Camco will agree with each other with
respect to the contents thereof before issuing any press release or otherwise
making any public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated by
this Merger Agreement, except as may be required by applicable law or by
obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with any national securities
exchange or transaction reporting system.
5.10 Other Actions. Except as contemplated by this Merger Agreement,
neither STC nor Camco shall, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to,
take or agree or commit to take any
-37-
<PAGE>
action that is reasonably likely to result in any of its respective
representations or warranties hereunder being untrue in any material respect or
in any of the conditions to the Merger set forth in Article VI not being
satisfied.
5.11 Advice of Changes; SEC Filings. STC and Camco shall confer on a
regular basis with each other, report on operational matters and promptly advise
each other orally and in writing of any change or event having, or which,
insofar as can reasonably be foreseen, could have, a Material Adverse Effect on
the STC Affiliated Group or Camco, as the case may be. Camco and STC shall
promptly provide each other (or their respective counsel) copies of all filings
made by such party (or in the case of STC, made by Schlumberger) with the SEC or
any other state or federal Governmental Entity in connection with this Merger
Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.
5.12 Reorganization It is the intention of STC and Camco that the Merger
will qualify as a reorganization described in Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Code
(and any comparable provisions of applicable state law). Neither Camco nor STC
(or any of their respective Subsidiaries) will take or omit to take any action
(whether before, on or after the Closing Date) that would cause the Merger not
to be so treated. The parties will characterize the Merger as such a
reorganization for purposes of all Returns and other filings.
5.13 Delivery of Schlumberger Common Stock. Prior to the Merger, STC will
acquire and will contribute to Sub that number of shares of Schlumberger Common
Stock which Sub is required to deliver pursuant to Section 2.1(c).
5.14 Employee Matters.
(a) Employment. STC and Camco agree that all employees of Camco and
its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time shall
be employed by the Surviving Corporation immediately after the
Effective Time (referred to herein during such continuing
employment as "Continuing Employees").
(b) Benefits Accrued at the Effective Time. STC will take, or cause
the appropriate member of the STC Group (as defined below) to
take, all actions necessary to preserve and maintain with
respect to the Camco Benefit Plans in effect at the Effective
Time, benefits accrued and service credit accrued to the
Continuing Employees and the Camco Retirees during employment
with Camco and its Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time;
provided, however, that unless otherwise expressly provided in
this Agreement, nothing contained in this Section 5.14 shall
preclude any member of the STC Group from amending any such plan
to cease the accrual of benefits thereunder after the Effective
Time or terminating any such plan provided such amendment or
termination does not adversely affect the benefits accrued
thereunder, if any, at the Effective Time. As used herein, the
"STC Group" means the Surviving Corporation and all members of
the STC Affiliated Group.
-38-
<PAGE>
(c) General Agreement as to Employee Benefit Coverage after the
Effective Time. Unless otherwise expressly addressed in this
Section 5.14, this Section 5.14(c) shall govern the obligations
of the STC Group with respect to employee benefits for
Continuing Employees and for employees who are eligible for
retirement benefits attributable to employment with Camco or a
Camco Affiliate, whether before, at or after the Effective Time
(referred to herein as "Camco Retirees").
(i) Benefit Coverage. STC will take, and cause the appropriate
member of the STC Group to take, such actions as are
necessary so that for the remainder of the calendar year
in which the Effective Time occurs, Continuing Employees
and Camco Retirees will be provided with employee benefit
plans, programs, policies and arrangements that are no
less favorable to such employees and retirees as those
provided as of the Effective Time. Thereafter, the STC
Group will provide the Continuing Employees and Camco
Retirees with benefits that, in the aggregate, are not
less favorable than those then provided to Similarly
Situated Employees (as defined in the next sentence). As
used herein, the phrase "Similarly Situated Employees"
means that group of employees (or retirees, as applicable)
of the STC Group principally employed in the oil field
service operations of the STC Group generally whose job
descriptions, working conditions, wage rates and other
conditions of employment are (or were) the most similar to
those of the Continuing Employees (or the Camco Retirees)
or, if there is no such group of employees, a group of
employees engaged in the drilling or completing of oil
and/or gas wells, all as reasonably determined by STC.
(ii) Service Crediting. In the event a STC Group employee
benefit plan, program, policy or arrangement is made
available to Continuing Employees or Camco Retirees, all
periods of service with Camco and its Subsidiaries and any
other entity that is within the same controlled group as
Camco under Section 414(b), (c), (m) or (o) of the Code or
Section 4001 of ERISA (the "Camco Controlled Group"), will
be credited to such employees or retirees for all purposes
(other than accrual of benefits), including vesting and
the eligibility to participate and receive benefits for
which a specified period of service is required under such
STC Group employee benefit plan, program, policy or
arrangement.
(iii) Certain Welfare Plan Provisions. STC will take, or cause
the appropriate member of the STC Group to take, such
actions as are necessary so that Continuing Employees and
Camco Retirees shall not be subject to preexisting
condition exclusions or waiting periods
-39-
<PAGE>
for welfare benefit plan coverages (except to the extent so
subject prior to the Effective Time) under any STC Group
welfare benefit plan that is made available to them and
shall receive full credit for any copayments and deductibles
already incurred under the comparable plan of Camco and its
Subsidiaries during the applicable plan year in which the
Effective Time occurs.
(d) Specific Agreements as to Employee Benefit Coverage after the
Effective Time. The following provisions shall modify the
obligations of the STC Group under Section 5.14(c) to the extent
set forth below.
(i) Severance Policies or Plans. For the period commencing on
the Effective Time and ending on December 31, 1999, a
Continuing Employee who is not a party to an individual
agreement providing for the payment of severance benefits
shall be provided with continued coverage under the Camco
Benefit Plan providing for severance benefit coverage to the
Continuing Employee at the Effective Time or, if any member
of the STC Group maintains a severance plan that would
otherwise cover the Continuing Employee by its terms and
such plan would provide greater benefits to the Continuing
Employee, the employee instead shall be provided with
coverage under such superior STC Group severance plan while
eligible for such plan during the period commencing on the
Effective Time and ending on December 31, 1999. From and
after January 1, 2000, for as long as the STC Group
maintains a severance plan for its Similarly Situated
Employees, a Continuing Employee who is not a party to an
individual severance agreement shall be provided with
coverage under the STC Group severance plan. Continuing
Employees will accrue severance plan credit at the same rate
as Similarly Situated Employees and, for this purpose, years
of service with the Camco Controlled Group prior to the
Effective Time will be credited.
(ii) Management and Sales Incentive Compensation Programs. The
following provisions shall apply to those Camco Benefit
Plans that provide for management and sales incentive
compensation and that are in effect at the Effective Time.
In the event that a participant in an incentive compensation
program ceases to be an employee for any reason other than
termination for cause or voluntary resignation, or in the
event that a participant is reassigned to a business unit
which is no longer within the Camco incentive compensation
measurements, the participant will receive an incentive
compensation payment as measured against the plan at the end
of the prior quarter and based on an annual award prorated
for the fraction of the year up to the change in employment
status. In the event that a reorganization results in a
-40-
<PAGE>
business unit being removed from the Camco incentive
compensation measurements, the measurements of the plan
will be adjusted to eliminate the objectives of that
business unit from the performance evaluation for
calculation of incentive compensation payments for the
remaining business units. Voluntary resignation shall not
include termination under Section 2(a) of a Camco
Executive Severance Agreement.
(iii) Qualified Defined Contribution Plans. No Camco Benefit
Plan that is a qualified defined contribution pension plan
shall be terminated in a manner that would generate a
distributable event to a participant (unless the
corresponding plan(s) maintained by the STC Group for
Similarly Situated Employees are also so terminated). The
STC Group may make employer contributions under qualified
defined contribution plans for Continuing Employees at a
rate or level that differ from the contributions made
under such plans for Similarly Situated Employees based on
the relative profits of the STC Group operating unit or
division employing Continuing Employees as compared to the
profits of the STC Group operating unit or division
employing Similarly Situated Employees.
(iv) Qualified Defined Benefit Plans.
(A) Freeze of Benefit Accruals. Benefit accruals by a
participant in any Camco Benefit Plan that is a qualified
defined benefit pension plan (a "Camco Defined Benefit
Plan") may be frozen by a member of the STC Group at any
time on or after the close of the calendar year in which
the Effective Time occurs, provided that the definition
for compensation includes covered earnings up to the date
the plan is frozen and further provided that Continuing
Employees then commence accruing a benefit under a
qualified defined benefit pension plan sponsored by a
member of the STC Group (a "STC Group Defined Benefit
Plan") if Similarly Situated Employees are then accruing a
benefit under such a plan. An ad hoc benefit adjustment
shall be made to the frozen benefit attributable to the
Camco Defined Benefit Plan to the extent such an
adjustment is made under a STC Group Defined Benefit Plan.
(B) Service Crediting. In the event that the benefit
accrual of a Continuing Employee under a Camco Defined
Benefit Plan is frozen, or a Camco Defined Benefit Plan is
merged into a STC Group Defined Benefit Plan, the
following service crediting provisions (in addition to any
service crediting provisions of Section 5.14(c) that are
not inconsistent with this paragraph) shall apply to any
benefit
-41-
<PAGE>
accrued after the Effective Time under such STC Group
Defined Benefit Plan: Continuing Employees will be
credited with service equal to the employees' accrued
vesting service under the Camco Defined Benefit Plan for
periods prior to the Effective Time, for purposes of
vesting, eligibility to participate, eligibility for
enhanced levels of benefit accrual and eligibility for
early retirement.
(C) Early Retirement. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the early retirement provisions of the Camco Defined
Benefit Plan that is merged into a STC Group Defined
Benefit Plan or under which the accrued benefit of a
Continuing Employee is frozen shall continue to apply to
the benefit accrued under the provisions of the Camco
Defined Benefit Plan rather than the early retirement
provisions of the STC Group Defined Benefit Plan. To the
extent that a Continuing Employee commences receipt of an
early retirement benefit under a STC Group Defined Benefit
Plan prior to the time that the benefit accrued under a
Camco Defined Benefit Plan would be payable, the benefit
accrued under the Camco Defined Benefit Plan shall
nevertheless commence being paid at the same time as the
benefit under the STC Group Defined Benefit Plan, but
shall be actuarially reduced to reflect such early
commencement.
(v) Retiree Medical Coverage. For so long as the STC Group
provides retiree medical coverage to its eligible retiring
Similarly Situated Employees, retiree medical coverage
under a Camco Benefit Plan or a plan maintained by a
member of the STC Group shall be made available to
eligible Camco Retirees. The STC Group may impose
eligibility criteria of attainment of age 60 during
employment with 20 years of service (within the meaning of
the vesting service definition of the Camco Benefit Plan
that is a qualified defined benefit pension plan and that
covers the employee at the Effective Time) for such
coverage, but no more restrictive eligibility criteria
unless such more restrictive criteria also applies to
Similarly Situated Employees. However, a Continuing
Employee who, at the Effective Time, is age 55 and has
accrued 15 or more years of service shall be eligible,
upon an involuntary termination of employment entitling
the employee to benefits under a STC Group or Camco
severance plan or agreement, for the same retiree medical
coverage provided to other Camco Retirees, notwithstanding
the age and service eligibility criteria otherwise
applicable for retiree medical coverage. Camco Retirees
may be required to pay premiums for retiree medical
coverage up to, but not in excess of, the highest premium
permitted to be charged for such continuation coverage
under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget
-42-
<PAGE>
Reconciliation Act of 1986 unless higher premiums also
are required from Similarly Situated Employees who
retire.
(vii) U.K. Performance Related Pay (PRP) Plans. Camco Benefit
Plans that are PRP plans will not be discontinued prior
to the close of the calendar year in which the Effective
Time occurs.
(viii) Health Care and Dependent Care Flexible Spending
Accounts. Camco Benefit Plans that are flexible spending
accounts within the meaning of Code Section 125 and the
regulations thereunder will not be discontinued prior to
the close of the calendar year in which the Effective
Time occurs.
(e) Vacation. With respect to the calendar year in which the
Effective Time occurs, a Continuing Employee will be permitted to
take vacation after the Effective Time (in accordance with the
STC Group vacation policies generally applicable to Similarly
Situated Employees) for accrued and unused vacation days
(determined under the vacation policies of Camco) that such
Continuing Employee is entitled to use for the calendar year in
which the Effective Time occurs. Continuing Employees shall
receive pay in lieu of such unused vacation time at the end of
the calendar year in which the Effective Time occurs. In
addition, with respect to vacation time that is earned during the
calendar year in which the Effective Time occurs (which may be
taken in the subsequent calendar year under the vacation policies
of Camco) (the "Vacation Accrual"), the Vacation Accrual shall,
on the first day of such subsequent calendar year, be credited to
the Continuing Employees' vacation credit accounts under the
applicable STC Group vacation policy for the calendar year
following the Effective Time, up to the maximum allowed under the
vacation policies of the STC Group, and the Continuing Employees
will be paid for any Vacation Accrual in excess of such maximum.
Continuing Employees will, in addition to having their Vacation
Accrual credited as of the first day of the calendar year
following the Effective Time, accrue vacation time for calendar
years commencing on and after the Effective Time at the same rate
as Similarly Situated Employees and, for this purpose, years of
service with the Camco Controlled Group prior to the Effective
Time will be credited. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the total
vacation time credited to a Continuing Employee's vacation credit
account for the calendar year following the Effective Time (both
by the Vacation Accrual credit made at the beginning of the year
and vacation accrued thereafter) shall not exceed the maximum
allowed under the applicable vacation policies of the STC Group.
(f) Retention Bonus Program. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 4.1(h), STC agrees that Camco may establish a retention
bonus program for the
-43-
<PAGE>
benefit of certain named Continuing Employees ("Eligible
Employees"), subject to the following limitations: The number of
Eligible Employees shall not exceed 100. The total amount of
retention bonuses potentially payable under the program shall not
exceed $5 million. A retention bonus will only be paid to an
Eligible Employee who remains in the employ of the STC Group
until the first to occur of (i) the first anniversary of the
Effective Time or (ii) the date such Eligible Employee's
employment is involuntarily terminated other than for cause by
any member of the STC Group. Documentation of the program
(including the names and titles of the Eligible Employees and the
amount of the retention bonus potentially payable to each
Eligible Employee) shall be subject to the comment and advance
approval of STC, which approval shall not unreasonably be
withheld.
(g) Collective Bargaining Exception. The provisions of this Section
5.14 will not apply to Continuing Employees or Camco Retirees who
are covered by a collective bargaining agreement to the extent
such provisions are inconsistent with the terms of any applicable
collective bargaining agreement.
(h) Transferred Employees. A Continuing Employee who is transferred
after the Effective Time to employment with an operating unit,
subsidiary or affiliate of the STC Group other than the Surviving
Corporation or any of its subsidiaries shall participate in the
employee benefit plans, programs, policies and arrangements that
are maintained by said employing entity for its employees.

transactions contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery of this
Transaction Agreement and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary
corporate action on the part of Camco. This Transaction Agreement has

(ii) Except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(c) to the Camco

Agreement does not, and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby and compliance with the provisions hereof will
not, conflict with, or result in any violation of, or default (with or
without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a
right of termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation
or to the loss of a material benefit under, or result in the creation
of any lien, security interest, charge or encumbrance upon any of the
properties or assets of Camco or any of its Subsidiaries under, any
provision of (A) the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of Camco
or any provision of the comparable charter or organizational documents
of any of its Subsidiaries, (B) any loan or credit agreement, note,
bond, mortgage, indenture, lease or other agreement, instrument,
permit, concession, franchise or license applicable to Camco or any of

Camco has been obtained, any judgment, order, decree, statute, law,
ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to Camco or any of its
Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties or assets, other
than, in the case of clause (B) or (C), any such conflicts,
violations, defaults, rights, liens, security interests, charges or

Material Adverse Effect (as defined below) on Camco, materially impair
the

ability of Camco to perform its obligations hereunder or prevent the
consummation of any of the transactions contemplated hereby. As used
in this Transaction Agreement a "Material Adverse Effect" shall mean,
any effect or change that is or would be materially adverse to the

its Subsidiaries as a direct or indirect consequence of any
announcement relating to the Merger or (4) any action taken or

(iii) No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or
registration, declaration or filing with, or permit from, any U.S. or

governmental authority or instrumentality (a "Governmental Entity") is
required by or with respect to Camco or any of its Subsidiaries in
connection with the execution and delivery of this Transaction
Agreement by Camco or the consummation by Camco of the transactions
contemplated hereby, as to which the failure to obtain or make would
have a Material Adverse Effect on Camco, except for: (A) the filing of

Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the "HSR Act"), and
the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period with
respect thereto; (B) the filing with the SEC of (1) a proxy statement
in preliminary and definitive form relating to the meeting of Camco's
stockholders to be held in connection with the Merger (the "Proxy
Statement") and (2) such reports under Section 13(a) of the Securities

no (i) suit, action or proceeding pending or, to the best knowledge of
Camco, threatened against or affecting Camco or any Subsidiary of Camco
("Camco Litigation"), or (ii) Camco Order, that would (in any case) have a
Material Adverse Effect on Camco or prevent Camco from consummating the
transactions contemplated by this Transaction Agreement.

warranties made by Camco in the Merger Agreement is incorporated by
reference herein as if fully set forth herein together with the definitions
of the defined terms used therein, mutatis mutandis, so that references to

to do business in each jurisdiction in which the business it is conducting,

qualification necessary, other than where (individually as in the

Material Adverse Effect on Schlumberger. Complete and correct copies of
the Certificates of Incorporation and Bylaws of Schlumberger have
heretofore been made available to Camco.

made, not misleading. The financial statements of Schlumberger included in
the Schlumberger SEC Documents complied as to form in all material respects
with the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto,
were prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis during

supplied by Schlumberger or any of its Subsidiaries for inclusion or
incorporation by reference in the S-4 will, at the time the S-4 is filed
with SEC or when it becomes effective under the Securities Act contain any
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein

connection with the Merger, contain any untrue statement of a material fact
or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they are made, not misleading. If at any time
prior to the Effective Time any event with respect to Schlumberger or any
of its Subsidiaries, or with respect to other information supplied by
Schlumberger or any of its Subsidiaries for inclusion in the Proxy
Statement or S-4, shall occur which is required to be described in an
amendment of, or a supplement to, the Proxy Statement or the S-4, such
event shall be so described, and such amendment or supplement shall be
promptly filed with
-10-
<PAGE>
the SEC. The Proxy Statement, insofar as it relates to Schlumberger or
Subsidiaries of Schlumberger or other information supplied by Schlumberger
or any of its Subsidiaries for inclusion therein, will comply as to form in
all material respects with the provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules
and regulations thereunder, except that no representations or warranties

except as contemplated by this Transaction Agreement or the Merger
Agreement, since December 31, 1997 there has not been: (i) any declaration,
setting aside or payment of any dividend or other distribution (whether in
cash, stock or property) with respect to any of Schlumberger's capital

dividends; (ii) any amendment of any material term of any outstanding
equity security of Schlumberger or any Significant Subsidiary; (iii) any

commitment, dispute or other event or condition (financial or otherwise) of
any character (whether or not in the ordinary course of business) that
would have a Material Adverse Effect on Schlumberger.
(g) No Undisclosed Material Liabilities. Except as disclosed in the
Schlumberger SEC Documents or on Schedule 3.2(g) to the Schlumberger
Disclosure Letter, there are no liabilities of Schlumberger or any of its
Subsidiaries of any kind whatsoever, whether accrued, contingent, absolute,
determined, determinable or otherwise, that would have a Material Adverse
Effect on Schlumberger, other than: (i) liabilities adequately provided for

of Schlumberger capital stock is necessary to approve the issuance of
Schlumberger Common Stock pursuant to this Transaction Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby.
(j) Accounting Matters. To the best knowledge of the financial and
accounting officers of Schlumberger prior to the date hereof, neither
Schlumberger nor any of its Affiliates has taken any action that (without
giving effect to any action taken or agreed to be taken by Camco or any of
its Affiliates) would jeopardize the treatment of the business combination
to be effected by the Merger as a pooling of interests for accounting
purposes.

Letter sets forth a list of all written or oral contracts, agreements or

their respective assets are bound which meet the definition of material
contracts set forth in Section 6.01 of Regulation S-K promulgated under the
Securities Act and which have not been included in the Schlumberger SEC

(c) In the event that any governmental body with jurisdiction of this
Merger shall require Schlumberger or any of its Subsidiaries to agree to
take or not to take any action as a condition to approving or not objecting
to the Merger, Schlumberger will take such action (i) if the loss in annual
revenues to the Surviving Corporation would reasonably be expected not to
exceed $75 million during the ensuing twelve months following the Closing,
or (ii) if Schlumberger otherwise considers it reasonable and appropriate
in the circumstances to take such action.
4.2 Agreement to Defend. In the event any claim, action, suit,
investigation or other proceeding by any governmental body or other person or
other legal or administrative proceeding is commenced that questions the
validity or legality of the transactions contemplated hereby or seeks damages in
connection therewith, the parties hereto agree to cooperate and use their
reasonable efforts to defend against and respond thereto.
4.3 Accounting Matters. During the period from the date of this
Transaction Agreement through the Effective Time, unless the parties shall
otherwise agree in writing, neither Schlumberger nor Camco or any of their
respective Subsidiaries shall knowingly take or fail to take any reasonable
action which action or failure to act would jeopardize the treatment of the
Merger as a pooling of interests for accounting purposes.
4.4 Public Announcements. Schlumberger and Camco will consult with each
other before issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statements
with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Transaction Agreement, and
shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement prior
to such consultation, except as may be required by applicable law or by
obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with any national securities
exchange or transaction reporting system.
4.5 Other Actions. Except as contemplated by this Transaction Agreement
or the Merger Agreement, neither Schlumberger nor Camco shall, and neither shall
permit any of its Subsidiaries to, take or agree or commit to take or omit to
take any action that is reasonably likely to result in any of its respective
representations or warranties hereunder or under the Merger Agreement being
untrue in any material respect or in any of the conditions to the Merger set
forth in Article VI to the Merger Agreement not being satisfied.
4.6 Advice of Changes; SEC Filings. Schlumberger and Camco shall confer
on a regular basis with each other, report on operational matters of Camco and
promptly advise each other orally and in writing of any change or event having,
or which, insofar as can reasonably be foreseen, could have, a Material Adverse
Effect on Schlumberger or Camco, as the case may be. Subject to the provisions
of Section 4.1, Camco and Schlumberger shall promptly provide each other (or
their respective counsel) copies of all filings made by such party with the SEC
or any other state or federal Governmental Entity in connection with this
Transaction Agreement or the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby and thereby.
-14-
<PAGE>
4.7 Reorganization. It is the intention of Schlumberger and Camco that
the Merger will qualify as a reorganization described in Section 368(a)(1)(B) of
the Code (and any comparable provisions of applicable state law). Neither
Schlumberger nor Camco (nor any of their respective Subsidiaries) will take or
omit to take any action (whether before, on or after the Closing Date) that
would cause the Merger not to be so treated. The parties (and their respective
Subsidiaries) will characterize the Merger as such a reorganization for purposes
of all Returns and other filings.
4.8 Takeover Defenses. Schlumberger and Camco shall each take such action
with respect to any takeover provisions in its respective Certificate of
Incorporation or Bylaws or afforded it by statute to the extent necessary to
consummate the Merger on the terms set forth in the Merger Agreement.
4.9 Letter of Camco's Accountants. Camco shall use its best efforts to
cause to be delivered to Schlumberger a letter of Arthur Andersen LLP, Camco's
independent public accountants, dated a date within two business days before the
date on which the S-4 shall become effective and addressed to Schlumberger and
Camco, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Schlumberger and
customary in scope and substance for letters delivered by independent public
accountants in connection with registration statements similar to the S-4. In
connection with Camco's efforts to obtain such letter, if requested by Arthur
Andersen LLP, Schlumberger shall provide a representation letter to Arthur
Andersen LLP complying with SAS 72, if then required.
4.10 Letter of Schlumberger's Accountants. Schlumberger shall use its
best efforts to cause to be delivered to Camco a letter of Price Waterhouse LLP,
Schlumberger's independent public accountants, dated a date within two business
days before the date on which the S-4 shall become effective and addressed to
Camco and Schlumberger, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Camco
and customary in scope and substance for letters delivered by independent public
accountants in connection with registration statements similar to the S-4. In
connection with Schlumberger's efforts to obtain such letter, if requested by
Price Waterhouse LLP, Camco shall provide a representation letter to Price
Waterhouse LLP complying with SAS 72, if then required.
4.11 Rights Agreement. Prior to the Effective Time, the Board of
Directors of Camco shall take any action (including, as necessary, amending or
terminating (but with respect to termination, only as of immediately prior to
the Effective Time) the Rights Agreement) necessary so that none of the
execution and delivery of this Transaction Agreement, the conversion of shares
of Camco Common Stock into the right to receive Schlumberger Common Stock in
accordance with Article II of this Transaction Agreement, and the consummation
of the Merger or any other transaction contemplated hereby will cause (a) the
Camco Rights to become exercisable under the Rights Agreement, (b) Schlumberger
or any of its Subsidiaries to be deemed an "Acquiring Person" (as defined in the
Rights Agreement), (c) the provisions of Section 11 or Section 13 of the Rights
Agreement to become applicable to any such event or (d) the "Distribution Date"
or the "Share Acquisition Date" (each as defined in the Rights Agreement) to
occur upon any such event, and so that the "Expiration Date" (as defined in the
Rights Agreement) of the Camco Rights will occur
-15-
<PAGE>
immediately prior to the Effective Time. Without the prior written consent of
Schlumberger, neither the Board of Directors of Camco nor Camco shall take any
other action to terminate the Rights Agreement, redeem the Camco Rights, cause
any person not to be or become an "Acquiring Person" or otherwise amend the
Rights Agreement in a manner, or take any other action under the Rights
Agreement, adverse to Schlumberger.
4.12 Stock Options. Schlumberger shall take all corporate action
necessary to reserve for issuance a sufficient number of shares of Schlumberger
Common Stock for delivery upon exercise of the Camco Stock Options assumed by
STC in accordance with Section 2.1(d) and Section 5.5 of the Merger Agreement.
As soon as possible after the Effective Time, Schlumberger shall file with the
SEC a registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor form) with respect to
the shares of Schlumberger Common Stock subject to the Camco Stock Options.

Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Schlumberger, and Camco, which was
unanimously approved by the boards of directors of the companies. The combined
company will offer an unmatched array of oilfield services to its customers for
reservoir optimization throughout the world.
Under the terms of the agreement, Camco shareholders will receive 1.18 newly
issued shares of Schlumberger common stock for each outstanding share of Camco
common stock. The exchange ratio is fixed and not subject to adjustment. The
transaction is expected to be tax free to Camco shareholders and will be
accounted for as a pooling of interests. Based on the closing price of

outstanding, the transaction is currently valued at about $3.14 billion.

their oil and gas operations."

merger satisfies Camco's strategic plan to be able to participate in more phases
of our customers' field operations. Camco will be able to add its technology of
production operations to the well known technology of Schlumberger in areas of
reservoir enhancement. We have practically no overlap of operations and have
worked successfully with Schlumberger in many areas of the world".
Schlumberger and Camco have historically been the most profitable companies in
their peer group. Both companies have an extensive geographic presence
worldwide, exhibit an excellent cultural fit and share strengths in
relationships with customers, governments and suppliers.

employees, and add value for shareholders. The transaction is expected to be

regulatory approvals. The transaction is expected to close around the end of the
third quarter of 1998.

and operations in over 100 countries. In 1997, revenue was $10.65 billion.
