The Promissory Note replaces the promissory note dated September 10, 2003, made by OYOG Operations, LP in favor of Compass Bank in its entirety.

In the Promissory Note, OYOG Operations, LP, promises payment of $8,800,000.00, exclusive of interest, to Compass Bank in 239 monthly payments beginning on April 1, 2008. A final installment payment of the oustanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest is payable on March 13, 2028.

The Promissory Note is secured by a Deed of Trust, Security Agreement, Assignment of Rents and Financing Statement dated and effective as of March 13, 2008, entered into by and between OYOG Operations, LP and Compass Bank (the "Deed of Trust").

Pursuant to the Promissory Note, the Company and Geospace Technologies, LP, a Texas limited partnership and subsidiary of the Company, have each entered into separate Guarantee Agreements, both dated March 13, 2008, with Compass Bank (collectively, the "Guarantee Agreements").
