None of the Subscription Rights (defined below) or Creditor Equity Rights Offering Securities issuable upon exercise of such rights distributed pursuant to these Creditor Equity Rights Offering Procedures have been or, at the time of original issuance, will be registered under the Securities Act, or the securities laws of any state. No Subscription Rights may be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, participated, donated or otherwise encumbered or disposed of, directly or indirectly (including through derivatives, options, swaps, forward sales or other transactions in which any person receives the right to own or acquire any current or future interest in the Subscription Rights, the Creditor Equity Rights Offering Securities, the Applicable Claims (defined below) and any related claims) (each of the above, a “Transfer”) ; provided, however, that holding securities attesting ownership of Subscription Rights in an account with a broker-dealer where the broker-dealer holds a security interest or other encumbrance over property in the account generally, which security interest or other encumbrance is released upon transfer of such securities, shall not constitute a “Transfer” for purposes hereof. No Creditor Equity Rights Offering Securities may be sold or transferred except pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state. These Creditor Equity Rights Offering Procedures are being distributed and communicated only to Eligible Holders (defined below).

These Creditor Equity Rights Offering Procedures have been prepared on the basis that all offers of Creditor Equity Rights Offering Securities within the EEA will be made pursuant to an exemption under the EU Prospectus Directive from the requirement to produce a prospectus for offer of securities. Accordingly, any person making or intending to make any subscription of Creditor Equity Rights Offering Securities within any EEA member state should only do so in circumstances in which no obligation arises to publish a prospectus or a supplement to a prospectus under the EU Prospectus Directive for such offer. Neither Seadrill Limited nor any person acting on their behalf has authorized, nor do they authorize, the making of any offer of Creditor Equity Rights Offering Securities through any financial intermediary, other than as may be contemplated herein. The expression “EU Prospectus Directive” means Directive 2003/71/EC (and amendments thereto, including the 2010 PD Amending Directive, to the extent implemented in the Relevant Member State), and includes any relevant implementing measure in each Relevant Member State and the expression “2010 PD Amending Directive” means Directive 2010/73/EU. The Creditor Equity Rights Offering is being conducted in good faith and in compliance with the Bankruptcy Code. In accordance with Section 1125(e) of the Bankruptcy Code, a debtor or any of its agents that participate, in good faith and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, in the offer, issuance, sale, or purchase of a security offered or sold under the plan of the debtor, of an affiliate participating in a joint plan with the debtor, or of a newly organized successor to the debtor under the plan, is not liable, on account of such participation, for violation of any applicable law, rule, or regulation governing the offer, issuance, sale or purchase of securities. Pursuant to the Plan, if Class B3, D3 or F3, constituting the General Unsecured Claims against Seadrill, NADL, and Sevan, vote as a class to accept the Plan, the Subscription Agent will transmit to Holders of claims of each class that voted to accept the Plan (the “Applicable Claims”) as of the Record Date a certification form (an “Eligibility Certificate”) to determine if such Holder is an Eligible Holder (defined below) permitted to participate in the Creditor Equity Rights Offering.
