SECURITY AND ISSUER. This Amendment No. 2 (this "Amendment No. 2") to the Statement on Schedule 13D filed on November 2, 2000, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on November 3, 2000 (collectively, the "Statement"), relates to the beneficial ownership of shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Universal Common Stock"), of Universal Compression Holdings, Inc. ("Universal"). The address of Universal's principal executive offices is 4440 Brittmoore Road, Houston, Texas 77041. This Amendment No. 2 is being filed by Weatherford International, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Weatherford"), and WEUS Holding, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Weatherford ("WEUS") (each individually a "Reporting Person" and together, the "Reporting Persons") to amend Items 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 7 of the Statement. Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Statement. ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND. Schedule I and Schedule II of the Statement, which contain information concerning the executive officers and directors of Weatherford and WEUS, respectively, required to be disclosed in response to Item 2 and General Instruction C to Schedule 13D, are hereby amended and restated in their entirety by Schedule I and Schedule II attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference. Such executive officers and directors may be deemed, but are not conceded to be, controlling persons of Weatherford and WEUS. Except for Weatherford's control of WEUS, no corporation or other person is or may be deemed to be ultimately in control of Weatherford or WEUS. ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS AND OTHER CONSIDERATION. Item 3 is hereby amended and restated as follows: On February 9, 2001, the merger ("Merger") of Enterra Compression Company, a direct wholly owned subsidiary of WEUS, and Universal Compression, Inc., a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Universal ("Merger Subsidiary"), was consummated pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") that was entered into on October 23, 2000 by each of the Reporting Persons and Universal, Enterra and Merger Subsidiary. In connection with the consummation of the Merger, all of the outstanding shares of stock of Enterra were converted into the right to receive an aggregate of 13,750,000 shares of Universal Common Stock (the "Merger Consideration"). Accordingly, at the effective time of the Merger, WEUS acquired beneficial ownership of 13,750,000 shares of Universal Common Stock. Weatherford may be deemed to have acquired indirect beneficial ownership of 13,750,000 shares of Universal Common Stock through WEUS, its wholly owned subsidiary. In connection with the Merger Agreement and to induce the parties to enter into the Merger Agreement, the Purchase Agreement, the Stockholders' Agreement, the Voting Agreement and the Transitional Services Agreement were entered into, each as defined and described more fully in the Statement. Page 4 of 14 Pages 5 The transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement were consummated immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger. The Stockholders' Agreement automatically terminated at the effective time of the Merger. The Registration Rights Agreement, the Voting Agreement and the Transitional Services Agreement (together, the "Agreements") were executed and remain in effect. For a description of these Agreements, see the sections in Item 4 of the Statement entitled "The Registration Rights Agreement," "The Voting Agreement," and "The Transitional Services Agreement," which descriptions are incorporated herein by reference. ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION Item 4 of the Statement is hereby amended to include the following after the second paragraph under the section entitled "The Merger Agreement-Appointment to the Board of Directors": The Weatherford Nominees appointed to Universal's Board of Directors were as follows: Mr. Bernard J. Duroc-Danner (Class C), Mr. Curtis W. Huff (Class B) and Mr. Uriel E. Dutton (Class A). ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER Section (a) of Item 5 of the Statement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows: (a) Universal represented in the Merger Agreement that it had outstanding as of the close of business on October 20, 2000 an aggregate of 14,664,038 shares of Universal Common Stock. As of the date of this Amendment No. 2, each Reporting Person may be deemed to beneficially own up to the number of shares and corresponding percentages of the outstanding shares of Universal Common Stock as is set forth on the cover page of this Amendment No. 2. Such information is incorporated herein by reference. The aggregate 13,750,000 shares of Universal Common Stock that the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own represent approximately 48.4% of the outstanding shares of Universal Common Stock. WEUS acquired these shares upon consummation of the Merger as a result of the automatic conversion of the Enterra shares into the right to receive the Merger Consideration at the effective time of the Merger. The Reporting Persons are no longer deemed to be beneficial owners of the 5,494,847 shares of Universal Common Stock that were the Pre-Merger Shares (as defined in the Statement) subject to the Stockholders' Agreement. Section (b) of Item 5 of the Statement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows: (b) The number of shares of Universal Common Stock as to which there is sole power to vote or direct the vote, shared power to vote or direct the vote, sole power to dispose or direct the disposition, or shared power to dispose or direct the disposition for each Reporting Person is set forth on the cover pages of this Amendment No. 2, and such information is incorporated herein by reference. Following the effective time of the Merger and the termination of the Stockholders' Agreement, the Reporting Persons are no longer deemed to have shared voting power with respect to the Pre-Merger Shares. The Reporting Persons may be deemed to have the sole power to vote or direct the voting of up to 9,471,346 of the 13,750,000 shares of Universal Common Stock received Page 5 of 14 Pages 6 upon consummation of the Merger, which amount is equal to 33 1/3% of the shares of Universal Common Stock to be outstanding after the Merger. The Reporting Persons have agreed to vote the remainder of the 13,750,000 shares received in the Merger (4,278,654 shares, referred to in the Statement as the Post-Merger Voting Shares) in the same proportion as the Public Shares (as defined in the Voting Agreement) are voted, and therefore, may be deemed to share the power to vote or to direct the vote of such shares with the other holders of Public Shares. It is impracticable to provide the information required by Item 2 with respect to such stockholders. The Reporting Persons may be deemed to have the sole power to dispose of or direct the disposition of all 13,750,000 shares of Universal Common Stock acquired in connection with the Merger and will not share the power to dispose of or direct the disposition of such shares with any other person.
