JOB SAFETY ANALYSIS TABLE OF CONTENTS

TO ALL EMPLOYEES - The purpose of the following Job Safety Analysis (JSA) Forms is to create
and maintain an awareness of the hazards that may be prevalent or occur while performing certain
tasks during drilling and how to manage them. It is, by no means, a complete and final
recommendation for any and all drilling work to be performed but is however a working document in
which changes can be made as needed. First and up most important is adherence to The National
Drilling Associations Safety Guide and Terra Testing, Inc. In-house Safety Program. The attached
JSAs complement these Safety Manuals and establishes an awareness amongst our staff.
When signing off on the signature page you are confirming that you have read and understand the
JSAs presented as well as The NDA Safety Guide.
