The payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior secured basis, jointly and severally by (i) the entities listed on the signature pages hereof as “Guarantors” and (ii) any subsidiary of the Company formed or acquired after the Closing Date that executes an additional guarantee in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, and their respective successors and assigns (collectively, the “Guarantors”), pursuant to their guarantees (the “Guarantees”). The Notes and the Guarantees attached thereto are herein collectively referred to as the “Securities”.
The Securities will initially be secured on a first priority basis, subject to Collateral Permitted Liens (as defined in the Indenture), by liens on (a) the floating, production, storage and offloading vessels Petrojarl Banff and Sevan Hummingbird and certain assets related thereto (the “FPSO Collateral”) and (b) (i) all shares of common stock of Teekay Finance Limited (“Teekay Finance”), which owns all of the Company’s common units of Teekay LNG Partners L.P. and all of the Company’s Class A common shares of Teekay Tankers Ltd. and (ii) all of the equity interests in Banff L.L.C., Hummingbird Spirt L.L.C., Petrojarl 4DA and Teekay Petrojarl Floating Production UK Ltd. (the “Share Collateral” and, together with the FPSO Collateral, the “Collateral”) as more particularly described in the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum and documented by (i) with respect to the FPSO Collateral, vessel mortgages, assignments of earnings, assignments of insurances and other customary security documentation and (ii) with respect to the Share Collateral, a share charge, in each case dated as of the Closing Date (collectively, with any other filings, amendments, joinders, supplements and agreements required to create or perfect the security interests in the Collateral, the “Security Documents”) in favor of Wilmington Trust, N.A., as collateral agent (in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”), for its benefit and the benefit of the Trustee and the holders of the Securities and the successors and assigns of the foregoing.
This Purchase Agreement (this “Agreement”), the Securities, the Indenture and the Security Documents are referred to herein as the “Transaction Documents.”
On April 24, 2019, the Company commenced an offer (the “Tender Offer”) to purchase for cash any and all of the Company’s outstanding 8.5% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “Outstanding Notes”) pursuant to an Offer to Purchase, dated April 24, 2019 (the “Offer to Purchase”), and entered into a dealer manager agreement with X.X. Xxxxxx Securities LLC as Dealer Manager in connection with the Tender Offer. The Company intends to use a portion of the net proceeds from the offering of the Securities to pay the consideration, and related costs and expenses, for any Outstanding Notes to be purchased pursuant to the Tender Offer.
Concurrently with the Tender Offer, the Company is soliciting consents from holders of the Outstanding Notes to amend certain provisions of the indenture governing the Outstanding Notes to remove substantially all of the restrictive covenants and certain events of default with respect to the Outstanding Notes, including the covenant restricting the Company from granting liens on its assets for issuances of other debt securities unless it grants a pari passu lien on such assets in favor of the Outstanding Notes (the “Proposed Amendments”). To become effective, the Proposed Amendments require that the Company accept for payment validly tendered and not validly withdrawn Outstanding Notes representing at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes (the “Requisite Consents”).

The foregoing sentence shall not apply to (a) the sale of the Securities hereunder to the Initial Purchasers or (b) the purchase of the Outstanding Notes pursuant to the Tender Offer.
7. Indemnity and Contribution. (a) The Company and each of the Guarantors jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, the directors, officers, employees, agents and affiliates of each Initial Purchaser and each person who controls any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) arising out of or based on any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum, any Additional Written Offering Communication prepared by or on behalf of, used by, or referred to by the Company or any Guarantor, any General Solicitation (including any Permitted General Solicitation) made by the Company or any Guarantor, any “road show” as defined in Rule 433(h) under the Securities Act (a “road show”), the Final Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arising out of or based upon any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are arising out of or based on information relating to any Initial Purchaser furnished to the Company in writing by such Initial Purchaser through you expressly for use therein.
(a) Each Initial Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Guarantors, each of their respective directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company or any of the Guarantors within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company and the Guarantors to such Initial Purchaser, but only with reference to information relating to such Initial Purchaser furnished to the Company in writing by such Initial Purchaser through you expressly for use in any Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum, any Additional Written Offering Communication set forth in Schedule II hereto, road show, any Permitted General Solicitation, the Final Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto. The Initial Purchasers confirm and the Company and the Guarantors acknowledge that the statements set forth in the ninth paragraph related to overallotments, stabilizing transactions and syndicate covering transactions under the heading “Plan of Distribution” in each Preliminary Memorandum and the Final Memorandum constitute the only information concerning the Initial Purchasers furnished in writing to the Company through the Representative by or on behalf of the Initial Purchasers specifically for inclusion in any Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum, any Additional Written Offering Communication set forth in Schedule II hereto, road show, any Permitted General Solicitation, the Final Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto.
(b) In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 7(a) or 7(b), such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing and the indemnifying party, upon request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded based upon the reasonable advice of counsel that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all such indemnified parties and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Such firm shall be designated in writing by the Representative, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 7(a), and by the Company and the Guarantors, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 7(b). The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.
(c) To the extent the indemnification provided for in Section 7(a) or 7(b) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other hand from the offering of the Securities or (i) if the allocation provided by clause 7(d)(i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause 7(d)(i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and of the Initial Purchasers on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Securities shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds from the offering of the Securities (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the Guarantors and the total discounts and commissions received by the Initial Purchasers bear to the aggregate offering price of the Securities. The relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and of the Initial Purchasers on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Guarantors or by the Initial Purchasers and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Initial Purchasers’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 7 are several in proportion to the respective principal amount of Securities they have purchased hereunder, and not joint.
(d) The Company, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 7(d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in Section 7(d) shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, no Initial Purchaser shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities resold by it in the initial placement of such Securities were offered to investors exceeds the amount of any damages that such Initial Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedies provided for in this Section 7 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.
(e) The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 7 and the representations, warranties and other statements of the Company and the Guarantors contained in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Initial Purchaser, the directors, officers, employees, agents and affiliates of any Initial Purchaser and any person who controls any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or by or on behalf of the Company, the Guarantors, their respective officers or directors or any person controlling the Company or any Guarantor and (i) acceptance of and payment for any of the Securities.
8. Termination. The Representative may terminate this Agreement by notice given by you to the Company, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on, or by, as the case may be, any of the New York Stock Exchange, the NYSE MKT, the NASDAQ Global Market, the Chicago Board of Options Exchange, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange or the Chicago Board of Trade or other relevant exchanges, (i) trading of any securities of the Company shall have been suspended on any exchange or in any over‑the‑counter market, (i) a material disruption in securities settlement, payment or clearance services in the United States or other relevant jurisdiction shall have occurred, (i) any moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by Federal or New York State or relevant foreign country authorities or (i) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, or any change in financial markets, or any calamity or crisis that, in your judgment, is material and adverse and which, singly or together with any other event specified in this clause (v), makes it, in your judgment, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offer, sale or delivery of the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Time of Sale Memorandum or the Final Memorandum.
9. Effectiveness; Defaulting Initial Purchasers. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto.
If, on the Closing Date, any one or more of the Initial Purchasers shall fail or refuse to purchase Securities that it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, and the aggregate principal amount of Securities which such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed or refused to purchase is not more than one‑tenth of the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be purchased on such date, the other Initial Purchasers shall be obligated severally in the proportions that the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule I bears to the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth opposite the names of all such non‑defaulting Initial Purchasers, or in such other proportions as you may specify, to purchase the Securities which such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such date; provided that in no event shall the principal amount of Securities that any Initial Purchaser has agreed to purchase pursuant to this Agreement be increased pursuant to this Section 9 by an amount in excess of one‑ninth of such principal amount of Securities without the written consent of such Initial Purchaser. If, on the Closing Date any Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers shall fail or refuse to purchase Securities which it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date and the aggregate principal amount of Securities with respect to which such default occurs is more than one‑tenth of the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be purchased on such date, and arrangements satisfactory to you and the Company for the purchase of such Securities are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non‑defaulting Initial Purchaser or of the Company or the Guarantors. In any such case either you or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date, but in no event for longer than seven days, in order that the required changes, if any, in the Time of Sale Memorandum, the Final Memorandum or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Any action taken under this paragraph shall not relieve any defaulting Initial Purchaser from liability in respect of any default of such Initial Purchaser under this Agreement.
If this Agreement shall be terminated by the Initial Purchasers, or any of them, because of any failure or refusal on the part of the Company or any Guarantor to comply with the terms or to fulfill any of the conditions of this Agreement, because of any termination pursuant to Section 8 hereof or if for any reason the Company or any Guarantor shall be unable to perform its obligations under this Agreement, the Company and the Guarantors jointly and severally will reimburse the Initial Purchasers or such Initial Purchasers as have so terminated this Agreement with respect to themselves, severally, for all out-of-pocket expenses (including the fees and disbursements of their counsel) reasonably incurred by such Initial Purchasers in connection with this Agreement or the offering contemplated hereunder.
10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with any contemporaneous written agreements and any prior written agreements (to the extent not superseded by this Agreement) that relate to the offering of the Securities, represents the entire agreement among the Company, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers with respect to the preparation of each Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum, the Final Memorandum, the conduct of the offering, and the purchase and sale of the Securities.
11. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.
12. Applicable Law. This Agreement and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related hereto shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York.

15. Judicial Proceedings.
(a) The Company and the Guarantors irrevocably (i) agree that any legal suit, action or proceeding against the Company or any Guarantor arising out of or based upon this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or alleged violations of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States may be instituted in any New York court, (ii) waive, to the fullest extent they may effectively do so, any objection which they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such proceeding in any New York court and (iii) submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding. The Company and the Guarantors have appointed Xxxxxxx & Associates, as their authorized agent (the “Authorized Agent”), upon whom process may be served in any such action arising out of or based on this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or any alleged violation of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States which may be instituted in any New York court, expressly consent to the jurisdiction of any such court in respect of any such action, and waive any other requirements of or objections to personal jurisdiction with respect thereto. Such appointment shall be irrevocable. The Company and the Guarantors represent and warrant that the Authorized Agent has agreed to act as such agent for service of process and agree to take any and all action, including the filing of any and all documents and instruments, that may be necessary to continue such appointment in full force and effect as aforesaid. Service of process upon the Authorized Agent and written notice of such service to the Company and the Guarantors shall be deemed, in every respect, effective service of process upon the Company and the Guarantors.
(b) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder into any currency other than United States dollars, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Initial Purchasers could purchase United States dollars with such other currency in the City of New York on the business day proceeding that on which final judgment is given. The obligations of the Company and the Guarantors in respect of any sum due from them to the Initial Purchasers shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than United States dollars, not be discharged until the first business day, following receipt by the Initial Purchasers of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency, on which (and only to the extent that) the Initial Purchasers may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase United States dollars with such other currency; if the United States dollars so purchased are less than the sum originally due to the Initial Purchasers hereunder, the Company and the Guarantors agree, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, that the party responsible for such judgment shall indemnify the Initial Purchasers against such loss. If the United States dollars so purchased are greater than the sum originally due to the Initial Purchasers hereunder, the Initial Purchasers agree to pay to the Company and the Guarantors an amount equal to the excess of the dollars so purchased over the sum originally due to the Initial Purchasers hereunder.
(c) To the extent that the Company or any Guarantor has or hereafter may acquire any immunity (on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise) from the jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process with respect to itself or its property, the Company and the Guarantors irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, such immunity in respect of any such suit, action or proceeding.
16. Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the parties hereto hereby waives any right to trial by jury in any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement.
17. Patriot Act. In accordance with the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), the Initial Purchasers are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies their respective clients, including the Company, which information may include the name and address of their respective clients, as well as other information that will allow the Initial Purchasers to properly identify their respective clients.
18. Representations and Indemnities to Survive. The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the Company, the Guarantors or their respective officers and of the Initial Purchasers set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Initial Purchaser, the Company, the Guarantors or any of the officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates or controlling persons referred to in Section 7 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities. The provisions of Sections 6(g), 6(m), 7 and 9 hereof shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.
19. Recognition of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes.
(a) In the event that any Initial Purchaser that is a Covered Entity becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from such Initial Purchaser of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.
(b) In the event that any Initial Purchaser that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of such Initial Purchaser becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Initial Purchaser are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.
For purposes of this Section 19:

It is expected that the Notes will be guaranteed on a senior secured basis by certain of Teekay’s subsidiaries and initially be secured by first-priority liens on two of Teekay’s floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) units, a pledge of the equity interests of the Teekay subsidiary that owns all of Teekay’s common units of Teekay LNG Partners L.P. and Teekay Offshore Partners L.P. and all of Teekay’s Class A common shares of Teekay Tankers Ltd., and a pledge of the equity interests in the Teekay subsidiaries that own two of its FPSO units.
Teekay expects to use the net proceeds from the Notes offering to partially fund the tender offer, also announced today, to purchase any and all of its outstanding 8.5% Senior Notes due 2020 (the 2020 Notes) and any fees and expenses thereof. The remainder of the tender offer is expected to be funded with a portion of Teekay’s available existing cash and borrowings under its equity margin loan facility. The proposed Notes offering is conditioned upon the receipt of consents of at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 2020 Notes and the effectiveness of certain proposed amendments (the Proposed Amendments) to the indenture governing the 2020 Notes (which will eliminate substantially all of the restrictive covenants and certain events of default and related provisions).
The Notes to be offered will not be registered under the Securities Act, or any state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.
