CAUTIONARY NOTICE REGARDING
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
               This prospectus, any accompanying prospectus supplement and the documents that we incorporate by reference contain “forward-looking statements.” All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement that address activities, events or developments which we expect or anticipate will or may occur in the future, including such things as future capital expenditures (including the amount and nature thereof), oil, gas, gas liquids and power prices, demand for our services, the amount and nature of future investments by governments, expansion and other development trends of the oil and gas, refinery, petrochemical and power industries, business strategy, expansion and growth of our business and operations, the outcome of government investigations and legal proceedings and other such matters are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and analyses we made in light of our experience and our perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments as well as other factors we believe are appropriate under the circumstances. However, whether actual results and developments will conform to our expectations and predictions is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. As a result, actual results could differ materially from our expectations. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from those contemplated by our forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following:
    curtailment of capital expenditures and the unavailability of project funding in the oil and gas, refinery, petrochemical and power industries;
 
    increased capacity and decreased demand for our services in the more competitive industry segments that we serve;
 
    reduced creditworthiness of our customer base and higher risk of non-payment of receivables;
 
    inability to lower our cost structure to remain competitive in the market;
 
    inability of the energy service sector to reduce costs in the short term to a level where our customers’ project economics support a reasonable level of development work;
 
    inability to predict the timing of an increase in energy sector capital spending, which results in staffing below the level required when the market recovers;

    the consequences we may encounter if we fail to comply with the terms and conditions of our final settlements with the Department of Justice (“DOJ”) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including the imposition of civil or criminal fines, penalties, enhanced monitoring arrangements, or other sanctions that might be imposed by the DOJ and SEC;
 
    the issues we may encounter with respect to the federal monitor appointed under our Deferred Prosecution Agreement with the DOJ and any changes in our business practices which the monitor may require;

    the dishonesty of employees and/or other representatives or their refusal to abide by applicable laws and our established policies and rules;
 
    adverse weather conditions not anticipated in bids and estimates;
 
    project cost overruns, unforeseen schedule delays and the application of liquidated damages;
 
    the occurrence during the course of our operations of accidents and injuries to our personnel, as well as to third parties, that negatively affect our safety record, which is a factor used by many clients to pre-qualify and otherwise award work to contractors in our industry;
 
    cancellation of projects, in whole or in part, for any reason;
 
    failing to realize cost recoveries on claims or change orders from projects completed or in progress within a reasonable period after completion of the relevant project;
 
    political or social circumstances impeding the progress of our work and increasing the cost of performance;
 
    inability to obtain and maintain legal registration status in one or more foreign countries in which we are seeking to do business;
 
    failure to obtain the timely award of one or more projects;
 
    inability to identify and acquire suitable acquisition targets or to finance such acquisitions on reasonable terms;
 
    inability to hire and retain sufficient skilled labor to execute our current work, our work in backlog and future work we have not yet been awarded;
 
    inability to execute cost-reimbursable projects within the target cost, thus eroding contract margin and, potentially, contract income on any such project;
 
    inability to obtain sufficient surety bonds or letters of credit;
 
    inability to obtain adequate financing;

               Consequently, all of the forward-looking statements made or incorporated by reference in this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement are qualified by these cautionary statements and there can be no assurance that the actual results or developments we anticipate will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the consequences for, or effects on, our business or operations that we anticipate today. We assume no obligation to update publicly any such forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law.
RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES
          The following table sets forth our ratio of earnings to fixed charges. For this purpose, earnings include income (loss) before income taxes and fixed charges. Fixed charges include interest (whether expensed or capitalized), amortization of debt expense, discount and premium (whether expensed or capitalized), and an estimate of the interest within rental expense. No shares of our preferred stock were outstanding during the periods indicated in the following table. Accordingly, the ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred stock dividends is the same as the ratio of earnings to fixed charges for each such period in the table below.
                                                 
    Three Months Ended    
    March 31,   Years Ended December 31,

Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, the senior debt securities will be direct, unsecured obligations of Willbros and will rank on a parity with all of our outstanding unsecured senior indebtedness. The senior debt securities may be issued in one or more series. The senior debt securities will be issued under an indenture between us and the trustee specified in the applicable prospectus supplement.
          The statements under this caption are brief summaries of the provisions contained in the indenture, do not claim to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the indenture, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. Whenever defined terms are used but not defined in this prospectus, those terms have the meanings given to them in the indenture.
          The following describes the general terms and provisions of the senior debt securities to which any prospectus supplement may relate. The particular terms of any senior debt security and the extent, if any, to which these general provisions may apply to the senior debt securities will be described in the prospectus supplement relating to the senior debt securities.
          The indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of senior debt securities which may be issued under it. Rather, the indenture provides that senior debt securities of any series may be issued under it up to the aggregate principal amount which we may authorize from time to time. Senior debt securities may be denominated in any currency or currency unit we designate. The indenture does not limit or otherwise restrict the amount of other debt which we may incur or the other securities which we may issue.
          Senior debt securities of a series may be issuable in registered form without coupons, which we refer to as “registered securities,” or in the form of one or more global securities in registered form, which we refer to as “global securities.”

Table of Contents

          A judgment for money damages by courts in the United States, including a money judgment based on an obligation expressed in a foreign currency, will ordinarily be rendered only in U.S. dollars. New York statutory law provides that a court shall render a judgment or decree in the foreign currency of the underlying obligation and that the judgment or decree shall be converted into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of entry of the judgment or decree.
          Senior debt securities may be issued as original issue discount senior debt securities, which bear no interest or interest at a rate which at the time of issuance is below market rates, to be sold at a substantial discount below their stated principal amount due at the stated maturity of the senior debt securities. There may be no periodic payments of interest on original issue discount securities. In the event of an acceleration of the maturity of any original issue discount security, the amount payable to the holder of the original issue discount security upon acceleration will be determined in accordance with the prospectus supplement, the terms of the security and the indenture, but will be an amount less than the amount payable at the maturity of the principal of the original issue discount security.
          If the senior debt securities are issued with “original issue discount” within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, then a holder of those senior debt securities will be required under the Internal Revenue Code to include original issue discount in ordinary income for federal income tax purposes as it accrues, in accordance with a constant interest method that takes into account the compounding of interest, in advance of receipt of cash attributable to that income. Generally, the total amount of original issue discount on a senior debt security will be the excess of the stated redemption price at maturity of the security over the price at which the security is sold to the public. To the extent a holder of a senior debt security receives a payment (at the time of acceleration of maturity, for example) that represents payment of original issue discount already included by the holder in ordinary income or reflected in the holder’s tax basis in the security, that holder generally will not be required to include the payment in income. The specific terms of any senior debt securities that are issued with original issue discount and the application of the original discount rules under the Internal Revenue Code to those securities will be described in a prospectus supplement for those securities.
Registration and Transfer
          Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, senior debt securities will be issued only as registered securities. Senior debt securities issued as registered securities will not have interest coupons.
          Registered securities (other than a global security) may be presented for transfer, with the form of transfer endorsed thereon duly executed, or exchanged for other senior debt securities of the same series at the office of the security registrar specified in the indenture. Transfer or exchange will be made without service charge, but we may require payment of any taxes or other governmental charges.
Book-Entry Senior Debt Securities
          Senior debt securities of a series may be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more global securities. Each global security will be deposited with, or on behalf of, a depositary identified in the applicable prospectus supplement. Global securities will be issued in registered form and in either temporary or permanent form. Until exchanged in whole or in part for the individual securities which it represents, a global security may not be transferred except as a whole by the depositary for the global security to a nominee of the depositary or by a nominee of the depositary to the depositary or another nominee of the depositary or by the depositary or any nominee to a successor depositary or any nominee of the successor. The specific terms of the depositary arrangement for a series of senior debt securities will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.
Payment and Paying Agents
          Unless otherwise indicated in an applicable prospectus supplement, payment of principal of and any premium and interest on registered securities will be made at the office of such paying agent or paying agents as we may designate from time to time. In addition, at our option, payment of any interest may be made by:

Table of Contents

    check mailed to the address of the person entitled to the payment at the address in the applicable security register; or
 
    wire transfer to an account maintained by the person entitled to the payment as specified in the applicable security register.
          Unless otherwise indicated in an applicable prospectus supplement, payment of any installment of interest on registered securities will be made to the person in whose name the senior debt security is registered at the close of business on the regular record date for the payment.
Consolidation, Merger or Sale of Assets
          The indenture relating to the senior debt securities provides that we may, without the consent of the holders of any of the senior debt securities outstanding under the indenture, consolidate with, merge into or transfer our assets substantially as an entirety to any person, provided that:
    any successor assumes our obligations on the senior debt securities and under the indenture; and
 
    after giving effect to the consolidation, merger or transfer, no event of default (as defined in the indenture) will have happened and be continuing.
          Any consolidation, merger or transfer of assets substantially as an entirety, which meets the conditions described above, would not create an event of default which would entitle holders of the senior debt securities, or the trustee acting on their behalf, to take any of the actions described below under “—Events of Default, Waivers, Etc.”
Leveraged and Other Transactions
          The indenture and the senior debt securities do not contain provisions which would protect holders of the senior debt securities in the event we engaged in a highly leveraged or other transaction which could adversely affect the holders of senior debt securities.
Modification of the Indenture
          The indenture provides that, with the consent of the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding senior debt securities of each affected series, modifications and alterations of the indenture may be made which affect the rights of the holders of the senior debt securities. However, no modification or alteration may be made without the consent of the holder of each senior debt security affected which would, among other things,
    modify the terms of payment of principal of or any premium or interest on the senior debt securities; or
 
    reduce the percentage in principal amount of outstanding senior debt securities required to modify or alter the indenture.
Events of Default, Waivers, Etc.
          An “event of default” with respect to senior debt securities of any series is defined in the indenture to include:
  (1)   default in the payment of principal of or any premium on any of the outstanding senior debt securities of that series when due;
 
  (2)   default in the payment of interest on any of the outstanding senior debt securities of that series when due and continuance of such default for 30 days;
 
  (3)   default in the performance of any of our other covenants in the indenture with respect to the senior debt securities of that series and continuance of such default for 60 days after written notice;

9


Table of Contents

  (4)   certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization relating to us; and
 
  (5)   any other event that may be specified in a prospectus supplement with respect to any series of senior debt securities.
          If an event of default with respect to any series of outstanding senior debt securities occurs and is continuing, either the trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding senior debt securities of that series may declare the principal amount (or with respect to original issue discount securities, the portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of that series) of all senior debt securities of that series to be immediately due and payable. At any time after such a declaration of acceleration and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the trustee, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding senior debt securities of any series may rescind and annul the declaration of acceleration and its consequences, but only if all events of default with respect to senior debt securities of such series have been remedied and all payments due, other than those due as a result of acceleration, have been made.
          If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the trustee may, in its discretion, and at the written request to the trustee of holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding senior debt securities of any series and upon reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request and subject to certain other conditions set forth in the indenture will, proceed to protect the rights of the holders of all the senior debt securities of that series. Prior to acceleration of maturity of the outstanding senior debt securities of any series, the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the senior debt securities may, on behalf of all of the holders of the senior debt securities, waive any past default under the indenture except a default in the payment of principal of or any premium or interest on the senior debt securities of that series, a failure by us to convert any senior debt security into shares of our common stock (to the extent such right is applicable) or in respect of a covenant or provision of the indenture which, pursuant to the indenture, cannot be waived without the consent of each holder of outstanding senior debt securities.
          The indenture provides that upon the occurrence of an event of default specified in clauses (1) or (2) of the first paragraph in this subsection, we will, upon demand of the trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the holders of any senior debt securities, the whole amount then due and payable on the affected senior debt securities for principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any. The indenture further provides that if we fail to pay such amount upon demand, the trustee may, among other things, institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of those amounts.
          The indenture also provides that notwithstanding any of its other provisions, the holder of any senior debt security of any series will have the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment of principal of or any premium or interest on the senior debt securities when due and that such right will not be impaired without the consent of that holder.
          We are required to file annually with the trustee a written statement of our officers as to the existence or non-existence of defaults under the indenture or the senior debt securities.
Satisfaction and Discharge
          The indenture provides, among other things, that when all senior debt securities not previously delivered to the trustee for cancellation (1) have become due and payable or (2) will become due and payable at their stated maturity within one year, we may deposit with the trustee funds, in trust, for the purpose and in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the senior debt securities not previously delivered to the trustee for cancellation. Those funds will include all principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, to the date of the deposit or to the stated maturity, as applicable. Upon such deposit, the indenture will cease to be of further effect except as to our obligations to pay all other sums due under the indenture and to provide the officers’ certificates and opinions of counsel required under the indenture. At such time we will be deemed to have satisfied and discharged the indenture.

There may be no periodic payments of interest on original issue discount securities. In the event of an acceleration of the maturity of any original issue discount security, the amount payable to the holder of the original issue discount security upon acceleration will be determined in accordance with the prospectus supplement, the terms of the security and the indenture, but will be an amount less than the amount payable at the maturity of the principal of the original issue discount security.

          Registered securities (other than a global security) may be presented for transfer, with the form of transfer endorsed thereon duly executed, or exchanged for other subordinated debt securities of the same series at the office of the security registrar specified in the indenture. Transfer or exchange will be made without service charge, but we may require payment of any taxes or other governmental charges.
Book-Entry Subordinated Debt Securities
          Subordinated debt securities of a series may be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more global securities. Each global security will be deposited with, or on behalf of, a depositary identified in the applicable prospectus supplement. Global securities will be issued in registered form and in either temporary or permanent form. Until exchanged in whole or in part for the individual securities which it represents, a global security may not

be transferred except as a whole by the depositary for the global security to a nominee of the depositary or by a nominee of the depositary to the depositary or another nominee of the depositary or by the depositary or any nominee to a successor depositary or any nominee of the successor. The specific terms of the depositary arrangement for a series of subordinated debt securities will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.
Payment and Paying Agents
          Unless otherwise indicated in an applicable prospectus supplement, payment of principal of and any premium and interest on registered securities will be made at the office of such paying agent or paying agents as we may designate from time to time.

          Unless otherwise indicated in an applicable prospectus supplement, payment of any installment of interest on registered securities will be made to the person in whose name the subordinated debt security is registered at the close of business on the regular record date for the payment.
Subordination
          The subordinated debt securities will be subordinated and junior in right of payment to some of our other indebtedness (which may include senior indebtedness for money borrowed) to the extent described in the applicable prospectus supplement. At March 31, 2011, we had an aggregate amount of $302,550,000 of indebtedness that would be senior to any subordinated debt securities that we may issue.
Consolidation, Merger or Sale of Assets
          The indenture relating to the subordinated debt securities provides that we may, without the consent of the holders of any of the subordinated debt securities outstanding under the indenture, consolidate with, merge into or transfer our assets substantially as an entirety to any person, provided that:
    any successor assumes our obligations on the subordinated debt securities and under the indenture; and
 
    after giving effect to the consolidation, merger or transfer, no event of default (as defined in the indenture) will have happened and be continuing.
          Any consolidation, merger or transfer of assets substantially as an entirety, which meets the conditions described above, would not create an event of default which would entitle holders of the subordinated debt securities, or the trustee acting on their behalf, to take any of the actions described below under “—Events of Default, Waivers, Etc.”
Leveraged and Other Transactions

Modification of the Indenture
          The indenture provides that, with the consent of the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding subordinated debt securities of each affected series, modifications and alterations of the indenture may be made which affect the rights of the holders of the subordinated debt securities. However, no modification or

14


Table of Contents

alteration may be made without the consent of the holder of each subordinated debt security affected which would, among other things,
 
     modify the terms of payment of principal of or any premium or interest on the subordinated debt securities;
 
     adversely modify the subordination terms of the subordinated debt securities; or     
 
     reduce the percentage in principal amount of outstanding subordinated debt securities required to modify or alter the indenture.
Events of Default, Waivers, Etc.
           An “event of default” with respect to subordinated debt securities of any series is defined in the indenture to include:
 
  (1)     default in the payment of principal of or any premium on any of the outstanding subordinated debt securities of that series when due;
 
  (2)     default in the payment of interest on any of the outstanding subordinated debt securities of that series when due and continuance
of such default for 30 days;

  (4)     certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization relating to us; and
 
  (5)     any other event that may be specified in a prospectus supplement with respect to any series of subordinated debt securities.
          If an event of default with respect to any series of outstanding subordinated debt securities occurs and is continuing, either the trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding subordinated debt securities of that series may declare the principal amount (or with respect to original issue discount securities, the portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of that series) of all subordinated debt securities of that series to be immediately due and payable. At any time after such a declaration of acceleration and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the trustee, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding subordinated debt securities of any series may rescind and annul the declaration of acceleration and its consequences, but only if all events of default with respect to subordinated debt securities of such series have been remedied and all payments due, other than those due as a result of acceleration, have been made.
          If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the trustee may, in its discretion, and at the written request to the trustee of holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding subordinated debt securities of any series and upon reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request and subject to certain other conditions set forth in the indenture will, proceed to protect the rights of the holders of all the subordinated debt securities of that series. Prior to acceleration of maturity of the outstanding subordinated debt securities of any series, the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the subordinated debt securities may, on behalf of all of the holders of the subordinated debt securities, waive any past default under the indenture except a default in the payment of principal of or any premium or interest on the subordinated debt securities of that series, a failure by us on request to convert any subordinated debt security into shares of our common stock (to the extent such right is applicable) or in respect of a covenant or provision of the indenture which, pursuant to the indenture, cannot be waived without the consent of each holder of outstanding subordinated debt securities.
          The indenture provides that upon the occurrence of an event of default specified in clauses (1) or (2) of the first paragraph in this subsection, we will, upon demand of the trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the holders of any

15


Table of Contents

subordinated debt securities, the whole amount then due and payable on the affected subordinated debt securities for principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any. The indenture further provides that if we fail to pay such amount upon demand, the trustee may, among other things, institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of those amounts.
          The indenture also provides that notwithstanding any of its other provisions, the holder of any subordinated debt security of any series will have the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment of principal of or any premium or interest on the subordinated debt securities when due and that such right will not be impaired without the consent of that holder.
          We are required to file annually with the trustee a written statement of our officers as to the existence or non-existence of defaults under the indenture or the subordinated debt securities.
Satisfaction and Discharge
          The indenture provides, among other things, that when all subordinated debt securities not previously delivered to the trustee for cancellation (1) have become due and payable or (2) will become due and payable at their stated maturity within one year, we may deposit with the trustee funds, in trust, for the purpose and in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the subordinated debt securities not previously delivered to the trustee for cancellation. Those funds will include all principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, to the date of the deposit or to the stated maturity, as applicable. Upon such deposit, the indenture will cease to be of further effect except as to our obligations to pay all other sums due under the indenture and to provide the officers’ certificates and opinions of counsel required under the indenture. At such time we will be deemed to have satisfied and discharged the indenture.

The specific terms and provisions of each guarantee, including any provisions relating to the subordination of any guarantee, will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement. The obligations of each subsidiary guarantor under its guarantee will be limited as necessary to seek to prevent that guarantee from constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable federal or state law.

               As of May 5, 2011, 48,528,660 shares of our common stock were outstanding. All of the outstanding shares of our common stock are fully paid and nonassessable. The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held on all matters voted upon by stockholders, including the election of directors. Holders of our common stock have no right to cumulate their votes in the election of directors. Subject to the rights of any then-outstanding shares of our preferred stock, the holders of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends as may be declared in the discretion of the board of directors out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends. We are prohibited from paying cash dividends under the provisions of our senior secured credit facility.
               The holders of our common stock are entitled to share equally and ratably in our net assets upon a liquidation or dissolution after the payment or provision for all liabilities, subject to any preferential liquidation rights of any preferred stock that at the time may be outstanding. The holders of our common stock have no preemptive, subscription, conversion or redemption rights.
Preferred Stock
               As of the date of this prospectus there were no outstanding shares of preferred stock. Our board of directors may, without further approval of the stockholders, issue preferred stock from time to time in one or more series and fix the dividend rates and terms, conversion rights, voting rights, redemption rights and terms, liquidation preferences, sinking fund and any other rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions applicable to each series of preferred stock.
     The specific matters that the board of directors may determine include the following:
    the designation of each series;
 
    the number of shares of each series;
 
    the rate of any dividends;
 
    whether any dividends will be cumulative or non-cumulative;
 
    the terms of any redemption;
 
    the amount payable in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the company;
 
    rights and terms of any conversion or exchange;
 
    restrictions on the issuance of shares of the same series or any other series; and
 
    any voting rights.
               The purpose of authorizing the board of directors to determine these rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions is to eliminate delays associated with a stockholder vote on specific issuances. The issuance of preferred stock, while providing flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could:
    decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for distribution to holders of common stock;
 
    adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of holders of common stock; and
 
    have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control.

Table of Contents

               For example, the board of directors, with its broad power to establish the rights and preferences of authorized but unissued preferred stock, could issue one or more series of preferred stock entitling holders to vote separately as a class on any proposed merger or consolidation, to convert preferred stock into a larger number of shares of common stock or other securities, to demand redemption at a specified price under prescribed circumstances related to a change in control, or to exercise other rights designed to impede a takeover.
Series A Preferred Stock
               In connection with our acquisition of InfrastruX Group, Inc. (“InfrastruX”) on July 1, 2010, our Board of Directors authorized the issuance of a new series of preferred stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) pursuant to a Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware (the “Certificate of Designations”). Shares of Series A Preferred Stock will only be issued to the former shareholders of InfrastruX under certain circumstances at the time of any final adjustment payment owed by us or if the earnout is earned under the terms of our agreement to acquire InfrastruX. If issued, the Series A Preferred Stock will rank senior with respect to dividend payments and the distribution of assets to all other classes of our equity securities.
               Dividends will accrue on each share of Series A Preferred Stock at a rate per annum of 10 percent of the “Original Price.” The Original Price per share will be equal to the average closing price for our common stock for the 10 consecutive trading days ending on the trading day immediately prior to issuance, multiplied by 100. In addition, holders of the Series A Preferred Stock will participate with respect to any dividends or distributions paid in cash or in kind on our common stock on a 100-to-1 basis, which participation shall accrue interest at a rate per annum of 11 percent. Dividends will accrue from the date on which a share of Series A Preferred Stock is issued by us until paid, whether or not declared, and will be cumulative. Dividends that have not been paid in full or that are otherwise in default in respect of a dividend payment date will accrue interest at a rate of 11 percent per annum.
               In the event of certain liquidation events or a change in control, before any amount is paid to the holders of common stock and any other junior securities, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive an amount per share equal to the greater of (i) the Original Price plus any declared and/or accrued but unpaid dividends thereon or (ii) the proceeds to be distributed to the holders of shares of common stock, on a 100-to-1 basis, plus an amount equal to declared and/or accrued but unpaid dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock. In the event that our assets are insufficient to permit such payments in full, our entire assets legally available for distribution shall be distributed with equal priority and pro rata among the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock.
               The Series A Preferred Stock will be redeemable by us at any time after the third anniversary of the date of issuance at a price per share equal to the Original Price, plus an amount equal to declared and/or accrued but unpaid dividends thereon to the date of redemption. At any time after the fifth anniversary of the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock, at the election of greater than 50 percent of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding, we will be required to redeem that portion of the Series A Preferred Stock which the holders have elected to be redeemed at a price per share equal to the Original Price, plus an amount equal to declared and/or accrued but unpaid dividends thereon to the date of redemption. In the event of a change in control, at the election of any holder of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding, we will be required to redeem that portion of the Series A Preferred Stock which any such holder has elected to be redeemed at a price per share equal to the greater of (i) the Original Price plus any declared and/or accrued but unpaid dividends thereon or (ii) the proceeds to be distributed to the holders of shares of common stock, on a 100-to-1 basis, plus an amount equal to declared and/or accrued but unpaid dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock.
               The Series A Preferred Stock will not be convertible into our common stock. The affirmative vote of the holders of greater than 50 percent of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, voting separately as a single class, will be required before the Certificate of Designations or our Certificate of Incorporation may be amended in any way that would adversely alter the rights, preferences and privileges of the Series A Preferred Stock or result in the issuance of additional Series A Preferred Stock or the creation of any equity security having preference over, or ranking pari passu with, the Series A Preferred Stock. Additionally, at such time and for so long as any dividends payable on the Series A Preferred Stock are not paid in full or are otherwise in default, the written consent or affirmative vote of the holders of greater than 50 percent of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, consenting or voting separately as a single class, will be required before we may (i) declare or pay dividends or make any other distributions on any shares of stock ranking junior to the Series A Preferred Stock, (ii) declare or pay

18


Table of Contents

dividends or make any other distributions on any shares of stock ranking on a parity with the Series A Preferred Stock, except dividends paid ratably on the shares of Series A Preferred Stock and all such parity stock, (iii) redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration shares of any stock ranking junior to the Series A Preferred Stock, except as provided by the Certificate of Designations, or (iv) redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of Series A Preferred Stock, or any stock ranking on a parity with the Series A Preferred Stock, except as provided by the Certificate of Designations. The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock will have no other voting rights.
Depositary Shares
               We may issue fractional shares of preferred stock rather than full shares of preferred stock. If we exercise this option, we will issue receipts for depositary shares, and each of these depositary shares will represent a fraction (to be set forth in the prospectus supplement relating to such depositary shares) of a share of a particular series of preferred stock.
               The shares of any series of preferred stock underlying the depositary shares will be deposited under a deposit agreement between us and a bank or trust company selected by us. The depositary will have its principal office in the United States and a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. Subject to the terms of the deposit agreement, each owner of a depositary share will be entitled, in proportion to the applicable fraction of a share of preferred stock underlying the depositary share, to all of the rights and preferences of the preferred stock underlying that depositary share. Those rights may include dividend, voting, redemption, conversion and liquidation rights.
          The depositary shares will be evidenced by depositary receipts issued under a deposit agreement. Depositary receipts will be distributed to those persons purchasing the fractional shares of preferred stock underlying the depositary shares, in accordance with the terms of the offering. We will describe the material terms of the deposit agreement, the depositary shares and the depositary receipts in a prospectus supplement relating to the depositary shares. You should also refer to the forms of the deposit agreement and depositary receipts that will be filed with the SEC in connection with the offering of the specific depositary shares.
Anti-Takeover Effects of Delaware Law and Provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws
               Delaware law and our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that might be characterized as anti-takeover provisions. These provisions may deter or render more difficult proposals to acquire control of our company, including proposals a stockholder might consider to be in his or her best interest, impede or lengthen a change in membership of the board of directors and make removal of our management more difficult.
    Classified Board of Directors; Removal of Directors; Advance Notice Provisions for Stockholder Nominations
               Our certificate of incorporation provides for the board of directors to be divided into three classes of directors serving staggered three-year terms, with the numbers of directors in the three classes to be as nearly equal as possible. Any director may be removed from office but only for cause and only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the then-outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote on the matter. Any stockholder wishing to submit a nomination to the board of directors must follow the advance notice procedures outlined in our bylaws. Any proposal to amend or repeal the provisions of our certificate of incorporation relating to the matters contained above in this paragraph requires the affirmative vote of the holders of 75% or more of the outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote on the matter.
    Stockholder Action by Written Consent
               Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws prohibit stockholder action by written consent.

19


Table of Contents

    Special Meetings of Stockholders
               Our bylaws provide that special meetings of the stockholders may be called at any time only by the board of directors, the chairman of the board, the chief executive officer or the president.
    Issuance of Preferred Stock
               As described above, our certificate of incorporation authorizes a class of undesignated preferred stock consisting of 1,000,000 shares. Preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series, and the board of directors, without further approval of the stockholders, is authorized to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions applicable to each series of preferred stock. The purpose of authorizing the board of directors to determine these rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions is to eliminate delays associated with a stockholder vote on specific issuances. The issuance of preferred stock, while providing flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could, among other things, adversely affect the voting power of the holders of our common stock and, under certain circumstances, make it more difficult for a third party to gain control of us.
    Business Combination Statute
               Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), in general, prohibits a business combination between a corporation and an interested stockholder (defined as a stockholder owing 15% or more of a corporation’s voting stock) within three years of the time the stockholder became an interested stockholder, unless:
    prior to such time, the board of directors of the corporation approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder;
 
    upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, exclusive of shares owned by directors who are also officers and by certain employee stock plans; or
 
    at or subsequent to such time, the business combination is approved by the board of directors and authorized at a stockholders’ meeting by at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.
The restrictions of Section 203 of the DGCL do not apply to corporations that have elected, in the manner provided therein, not to be subject to Section 203 of the DGCL or, with certain exceptions, that do not have a class of voting stock that is listed on a national securities exchange or held of record by more than 2,000 stockholders. We have elected to be subject to Section 203 of the DGCL.
Transfer Agent and Registrar
               The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is Mellon Investor Services LLC.

    cure any ambiguity;
 
    cure, correct or supplement any defective or inconsistent provision; or

    Enforceability of Rights of Warrantholders
          The warrant agents will act solely as our agents in connection with the warrant certificates and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust for or with any holders of warrant certificates or beneficial owners of warrants. Any holder of warrant certificates and any beneficial owner of warrants may, without the consent of any other person, enforce by appropriate legal action, on its own behalf, its right to exercise the warrants evidenced by the warrant certificates in the manner provided for in that series of warrants or pursuant to the applicable warrant agreement. No holder of any warrant certificate or beneficial owner of any warrants will be entitled to any of the rights of a holder of the debt securities or any other warrant property, if any, purchasable upon exercise of the warrants, including, without limitation, the right to receive the payments on those debt securities or other warrant property or to enforce any of the covenants or rights in the relevant indenture or any other similar agreement.

The transfer or exchange will be effected only if the warrant agent for the series of warrants is satisfied with the documents of title and identity of the person making the request.
    New York Law to Govern
          The warrants and each warrant agreement will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.
DESCRIPTION OF PURCHASE CONTRACTS
          We may issue purchase contracts, including contracts obligating holders to purchase from us and us to sell to the holders, a specified principal amount of debt securities or a specified number of shares of common stock or preferred stock or any of the other securities that we may sell under this prospectus (or a range of principal amount or number of shares pursuant to a predetermined formula) at a future date or dates. The consideration payable upon settlement of the purchase contracts may be fixed at the time the purchase contracts are issued or may be determined by a specific reference to a formula set forth in the purchase contracts. The purchase contracts may be issued separately or as part of units consisting of a purchase contract and other securities or obligations issued by us or third parties, including United States treasury securities, securing the holders’ obligations to purchase the relevant

22

securities under the purchase contracts. The purchase contracts may require us to make periodic payments to the holders of the purchase contracts or units or vice versa, and the payments may be unsecured or prefunded on some basis. The purchase contracts may require holders to secure their obligations under the purchase contracts in a specified manner and in some circumstances we may deliver newly issued prepaid purchase contracts, often referred to as “prepaid securities,” upon release to a holder of any collateral securing such holder’s obligations under the original purchase contract.
          The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the terms of any purchase contracts or purchase units and, if applicable, such other securities or obligations. The description in the prospectus supplement will not necessarily be complete and will be qualified in its entirety by reference to the purchase contracts, and, if applicable, collateral arrangements, relating to the purchase contracts.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
     Willbros is a corporation organized under Delaware law. Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware provides generally that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party to or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative in nature by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) and, in a proceeding not by or in the right of the corporation, judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reason to believe his conduct was unlawful. Delaware law further provides that a corporation may not indemnify any person against expenses incurred in connection with an action by or in the right of the corporation if such person shall have been adjudged to be liable in the performance of his duty to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in the view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for the expenses which such court shall deem proper. The bylaws of Willbros provide that the corporation shall indemnify an officer or director against liability incurred by such person as authorized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. In addition, the directors and officers of Willbros have entered into specific agreements which provide for indemnification of such persons by Willbros under certain circumstances.

Item 17. Undertakings.
     (a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
     (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
     (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
     (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective Registration Statement; and
     (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of

1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.
     (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
     (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
     (5) That, for purposes of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:
     (A) Each prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and
     (B) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5) or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii) or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which the prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.
     (6) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the Registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned Registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned Registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned Registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
     (i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned Registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
     (ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned Registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned Registrant;
     (iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned Registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned Registrant; and

     (b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for the purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant’s Annual Report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
     (h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
     (i) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to file an application for the purpose of determining the eligibility of the trustee to act under subsection (a) of section 310 of the Trust Indenture Act in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed by the Commission under section 305(b)2 of the Trust Indenture Act.
