Exhibit 7.2


FIRST AMENDMENT TO

STOCK EXCHANGE AGREEMENT



This First Amendment to Stock Exchange Agreement (this "Amendment") is made and entered into as of December 1, 2003, by and between Capco Energy, Inc. ("Capco Energy") and J. Michael Myers ("Myers"), with reference to the following facts:


Capco Energy and Myers entered into that certain Stock Exchange Agreement dated as of November 30, 2003 (the "Exchange Agreement"), whereby Capco Energy issued to Myers 1,000,000 shares of common stock of Capco Energy in exchange for 5,000 shares of common stock of Capco Offshore, Inc. owned by Myers.

Capco Energy and Myers each acknowledge and agree that the Exchange Agreement failed to include certain provisions which the parties intended to be included therein, and they have agreed to amend the Exchange Agreement as provided herein to correct those omissions.

NOW, THEREFORE, FOR AND IN CONSIDERATION and the mutual promises, covenants and agreements set forth herein and in the Exchange Agreement, the parties hereto agree as follows:


Defined Terms.  Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Exchange Agreement.

Amendment of Section 5.02.  Section 5.02 of the Exchange Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced by the following:

5.02.  Indemnity:  Myers agrees to indemnify and hold Capco Energy harmless from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees) incurred or sustained by Capco Energy arising out of any actions, claims or demands related to Capco Offshore, Inc. based upon matters occurring prior to November 30, 2003, but which are made or asserted subsequent to such date.


Capco Energy agrees to indemnify and hold Myers harmless from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees) incurred or sustained by Myers arising out of any actions, claims or demands related to Capco Offshore, Inc. based upon matters occurring on or after November 30, 2003.


Additional Provisions.  The Exchange Agreement is hereby amended to add the following provisions at the end of the agreement:

5.15.  Public Information:  Capco Energy shall, on a best effort basis, timely satisfy all of the reporting and filing requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and otherwise make available adequate current public information in satisfaction of the requirements under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act").


5.16.  Registration Rights:  (a) Upon the request of Myers, Capco Energy agrees to file, as promptly as practicable, a registration statement and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective, as expeditiously as possible, under the 1933 Act and any applicable state securities laws with respect to any proposed disposition by Myers of his Capco Energy Shares, or any portion thereof, unless, in the written opinion of counsel to Capco Energy, addressed to Myers, registration is not required for the proposed disposition of such shares.  Capco Energy agrees further to cause such registration statement to remain effective for a reasonable period of time required for the disposition by Myers of the shares in a public sale thereof (provided, that the effectiveness of the registration statement may be delayed or suspended for a reasonable period of time, but not in excess of 60 days, to permit Capco Energy to consummate (i) an offering of securities, or (ii) extraordinary transactions that it would otherwise be precluded from completing due to the obligations of Capco Energy under this Section 5.16), to prepare and file such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to the sale or other disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement, and to enter into customary agreements for a secondary offering of shares (including an underwriting agreement for a secondary offering of shares in customary form containing customary indemnification provisions).  The registration effected under this Section 5.16 shall be effected at Capco Energy's expense.


(b)

Upon the request of Myers, Capco Energy agrees that it will promptly file applications to list any Capco Energy Shares owned or acquired by Myers on the relevant exchange and will use its best efforts to obtain approval of such listing.


(c)

No such registration statement or amendment thereto shall be filed under this Section 5.16 by Capco Energy until Myers and his counsel shall have had a reasonable opportunity of not less than ten (10) days to review the same and to approve or disapprove any portion of such registration statement describing or referring to Myers.


(d)

Capco Energy shall furnish to Myers such number of copies of any such registration statement and of each such amendment and supplement thereto and such number of copies of the prospectus included in such registration statement as reasonably requested by Myers.


(e)

The only representations and warranties Myers shall be required to make in connection with any underwriting or registration shall be with respect to Myers' ownership of the Capco Energy Shares to be sold by him and his ability to convey title thereto free and clear of all liens, encumbrances or adverse claims and Myers shall not be required to make any indemnity in connection therewith.


(f)

At least ninety (90) days prior to filing any registration statement covering its securities, Capco Energy shall notify Myers in writing of Capco Energy's intent to do so, and Myers shall have the right to exercise his registration rights under this Section 5.16 and participate in such registration; provided, however, that if the offering is underwritten and the managing underwriter shall certify in writing that inclusion of all or any of Myers' shares would, in such managing underwriter's opinion, materially interfere with the proposed distribution and marketing of the securities with respect to which the registration was originally to be effected (such writing to state the basis of such opinion and the maximum number of shares which may be distributed without such interference), then Capco Energy may, upon written notice to Myers, have the right to exclude from such registration such number of Myers' shares which it would otherwise be required to register hereunder as is necessary to reduce the total amount of securities to be so registered to the maximum amount set by the managing underwriter; and provided, further that if such registration includes shares being offered by other selling shareholders, any reduction in the number of securities to be included in the registration as recommended by the managing underwriter shall be shared pro rata among Myers and such other selling shareholders based upon the number of shares sought to be registered by each such selling shareholder (including Myers) as compared to the total number of shares sought to be registered by all selling shareholders (including Myers).


5.17.  Board Representation:  Upon execution and delivery of this Agreement, Capco Energy agrees to and shall, by action of its Board of Directors, elect and appoint Myers or such other person as may be designated by Myers (the "Myers Board Representative") as a director of Capco Energy.  For so long as Myers owns shares of common stock of Capco Energy (a) Capco Energy agrees to nominate and use its best efforts to cause the shareholders of Capco Energy to re-elect or elect, as the case may be, the Myers Board Representative to the Board of Directors of Capco Energy, and (b) Ilyas Chaudhary ("Chaudhary") agrees to vote all shares of voting stock of Capco Energy owned by him in favor of the election of the Myers Board Representative and to cause his family and affiliates who own voting securities of Capco Energy (collectively, the "Chaudhary Affiliates") to also vote in favor of the election of the Myers Board Representative.


5.18.  Tag-Along Right:  In the event Chaudhary and/or the Chaudhary Affiliates, in a single or series of related transactions, desires to transfer any shares of common stock, or other securities convertible in and to shares of common stock, of Capco Energy representing in excess of 10% of the total outstanding shares of common stock of Capco Energy then outstanding, Capco Energy and Chaudhary shall send to Myers notice of such proposed sale no less than forty-five (45) days prior to the proposed sale (the "Sales Notice") and Myers shall have the right and option to transfer his shares of common stock of Capco Energy together with the shares of common stock of Capco Energy being transferred by Chaudhary and/or the Chaudhary Affiliates in the same transaction and on the same terms and conditions and for the same consideration (a "Tag-Along Sale").  Myers may execute his tag-along right under this Section 5.18 by sending written notice of such exercise to Chaudhary within thirty (30) days after receipt by Myers of the Sales Notice; provided, that a failure by Chaudhary and Capco Energy to give the Sales Notice shall not limit or adversely affect the tag-along right in favor of Myers.  In connection with any Tag-Along Sale, Myers shall not be required to make any representations or warranties to any person except as to (a) good title to Myers' shares of common stock of Capco Energy being sold in the Tag-Along Sale, and (b) the authority for and the valid and binding effect of any agreement entered into by Myers in connection with the Tag-Along Sale.  Myers shall not be required to provide any indemnities in connection with any such Tag-Along Sale.


5.19.  Preemptive Right:  For so long as Myers owns any shares of common stock of Capco Energy, Capco Energy shall not issue any shares of its common stock or grant any options or warrants to purchase or other securities convertible into shares of common stock without first providing notice of any such proposed issuance to Myers no less than forty-five (45) days prior to the date of the proposed issuance (the "Proposed Issuance Notice"); provided that failure to provide such notice will not limit or adversely affect Myers' preemptive right hereunder.  Myers shall have the right and option to purchase a percentage of the shares, options, warrants or other convertible securities being issued which is equal to the percentage of the then outstanding shares of common stock of Capco Energy owned by Myers (the "Preemptive Right Shares"), on the same terms and conditions as the proposed issuance described in the Proposed Issuance Notice; provided, however, that in the event the proposed issuance by Capco Energy is for consideration other than cash, Myers shall have the right to substitute cash payment in place of such non-cash consideration in an amount equal to the value of such non-cash consideration as determined by a valuation acceptable to Myers.  Myers may exercise such right and option by providing written notice to Capco Energy within thirty (30) days of Myers' receipt of the Proposed Issuance Notice, and upon such exercise Capco Energy shall sell the Preemptive Right Shares to Myers.  Myers' acquisition pursuant to an exercise of his preemptive right in accordance with this Section 5.19 shall close simultaneously with the issuance of the shares or other securities referred to in the Proposed Issuance Notice.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Capco Energy may issue shares of its common stock in each of the following instances without first offering such shares to Myers pursuant to this Section 5.19:  (a) pursuant to employee benefit plans or as employee incentives reasonably necessary for attracting and retaining key employees, and (b) as consideration paid by Capco Energy in an acquisition of assets or stock of another company by Capco Energy.


5.20.  Assistance with Reporting Requirements:  Capco Energy agrees to and shall assist Myers in connection with all forms and reports which Myers will be required to file under applicable securities laws as a result of his beneficial ownership of the Capco Energy Shares which Myers is acquiring pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or has the right to acquire pursuant to the Stock Option Agreement, including without limitation, the preparation and filing of a Schedule 13D and a Form 3.


5.21.  Joinder of Chaudhary:  Chaudhary has joined in this Agreement for the limited purpose of making the agreement set forth in Sections 5.17 and 5.18 set forth above.


Ratification of Exchange Agreement as Amended.  Except as expressly modified by this Amendment, the Exchange Agreement shall remain in full force and effect without change or modification.  Capco Energy, Myers, and Chaudhary hereby ratify and confirm the Exchange Agreement, as amended by this Amendment.

Counterparts.  This Amendment may be signed in any number of counterparts so long as each party signs at least one such counterpart, and all such counterparts shall be taken together as one and the same instrument.



IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have duly executed this Amendment as of the date first above written.
