On August 24, 2007, Superior Offshore International, Inc. (the Company) entered into an
amendment (the Amendment) to its senior secured credit facility (the Credit Facility) with
JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the Administrative Agent). Among other things, the Amendment provides
for revolving credit loans in an aggregate amount up to $15,000,000 that will be secured by a first
priority lien on eligible foreign accounts receivable of the Company and guaranteed by the
Export-Import Bank of the United States (the Foreign Loan). Amounts borrowed under the Foreign
Loan would be counted towards, and would not be in addition to, the
up to $30,000,000 available under the
existing revolving credit facility. The Foreign Loan will expire in February 2008. Borrowings
under the Foreign Loan bear interest at the London Interbank Offered Rate plus a spread ranging
from 1.50% to 2.00%, subject to a performance-based grid.
The foregoing description of the Amendment to the Credit Facility is a summary of the terms of
the Amendment and is qualified by reference to the text of the Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit
10.1 to this report and is incorporated by reference herein.
