The Securities may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule, agreements to which the Company is subject, if any, or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Company). Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. The terms of the Securities set forth in Appendix A are part of the terms of this Indenture.

SECTION 2.02. Execution and Authentication. An Officer shall sign the Securities for the Company by manual or facsimile signature.

If an Officer whose signature is on a Security no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Security, the Security shall be valid nevertheless.

A Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Security. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Security has been authenticated under this Indenture.

The Trustee, upon a written order of the Company signed by an Officer of the Company, together with the other documents required by Sections 14.02 and 14.03, shall authenticate Securities for original issue on the Issue Date in the aggregate principal amount not to exceed $600,000,000. Such written order

of the Company shall specify the amount of Securities to be authenticated and the date on which the original issue of Securities is to be authenticated.

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent reasonably acceptable to the Company to authenticate the Securities. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Securities whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and demands.

SECTION 2.03. Registrar and Paying Agent. The Company shall maintain an office or agency where Securities may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the “Registrar”) and an office or agency where Securities may be presented for payment (the “Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register of the Securities and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may have one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent.

If the Company fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate reasonable compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.06. The Company may change the Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to the Holders. The Company or any of its Affiliates incorporated or organized within The United States of America may act as Paying Agent, Registrar, co-registrar or transfer agent.

The Company initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar and Paying Agent in connection with the Securities.

The Company initially appoints The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Securities.

SECTION 2.04. Paying Agent To Hold Money in Trust. Prior to each due date of the principal of and interest on any Security, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such principal and interest when so becoming due. The Company shall require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to agree in writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders of Securities or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or interest on the Securities and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. If the Company or any of its Affiliates acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold it as a separate trust fund. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by the Paying Agent. Upon complying with this Section, the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee.

SECTION 2.05. Lists of Holders of Securities. The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders of Securities.

SECTION 2.06. Transfer and Exchange. The Securities shall be issued in registered form and shall be transferable only upon the surrender of a Security for registration of transfer. When a Security is presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar, if any, with a request to register a transfer, the Registrar shall register the transfer as requested if the requirements of this Indenture (including Appendix A thereto) are

met. When Securities are presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar, if any, with a request to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Securities of other denominations, the Registrar shall make the exchange as requested if the same requirements are met.

The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Security (including any transfers between or among Depositary participants or beneficial owners of interests in any Definitive Security or Global Security) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

Neither the Trustee nor any agent of the Trustee shall have any responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by the Depositary.

SECTION 2.07. Replacement Securities. If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee or either the Company or the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security, the Company shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of evidence of authentication in accordance with Section 2.02, shall authenticate a replacement Security if the Trustee’s requirements for replacement of Securities are met. An indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Security is replaced. The Trustee and the Company each may charge such Holder for their expenses in replacing such Security.

Every replacement Security is an additional obligation of the Company and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Securities duly issued hereunder.

SECTION 2.08. Outstanding Securities. Securities outstanding at any time are all Securities authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section as not outstanding.

If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee and the Company receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Security is held by a protected purchaser (as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code).

If the Paying Agent segregates and holds in trust, in accordance with this Indenture, on a redemption date or maturity date money sufficient to pay all principal and interest payable on that date with respect to the Securities (or portions thereof) to be redeemed or maturing, as the case may be, then on and after that date such Securities (or portions thereof) cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue.

SECTION 2.09. Temporary Securities. Until definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of definitive Securities but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Securities and deliver them in exchange for temporary Securities.

SECTION 2.10. Cancellation. The Company at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel and dispose of in accordance with the Trustee’s policy then in effect (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act) all Securities surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment

or cancellation in accordance with its retention policy then in effect, unless the Company directs the Trustee in writing to deliver canceled Securities to the Company. The Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities it has redeemed, paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

SECTION 2.11. Defaulted Interest. If the Company defaults in a payment of principal, interest or any other amount on the Securities, the Company shall pay defaulted interest at the rate specified in the Securities (plus interest on such defaulted interest to the extent lawful) in any lawful manner. The Company may pay the defaulted interest to the persons who are Holders of Securities on a subsequent special record date. The Company shall fix or cause to be fixed any such special record date and payment date; provided that no such special record date may be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Company (or, upon written request of the Company, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company) will send to each Holder of Securities a notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest to be paid. The Trustee will have no duty whatsoever to determine whether any defaulted interest is payable or the amount thereof.

SECTION 2.12. CUSIP Numbers, ISINs, etc. The Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers (in each case if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company shall advise the Trustee in writing of any change in any “CUSIP” numbers, ISINs or “Common Code” numbers applicable to the Securities.

Article 3

SECTION 4.15. Total Leverage Ratio.

(a) If the Total Leverage Ratio exceeds 10.00:1.00 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter of Holdings, then all amounts on deposit in the Bareboat Account and the Earnings Account and all future amounts deposited into the Bareboat Account or the Earnings Account shall be swept and deposited into accounts established in the name of the Collateral Agent after the Collateral Agent delivers a Blocking Notice (as defined in Section 4.09(b)) and the relevant depositary bank restricts access by the Collateral Rig Owner and Collateral Rig Operator to the Bareboat Account and Earnings Account, respectively, until such Blocking Notice is revoked in accordance with Section 4.09(b) (each such period, a “Blocked Period”). During any Blocked Period, the Company may request (not more frequently than once per week) disbursements and withdraw from such accounts of the Collateral Agent by executing and delivering a Blocked Period Withdrawal Certificate the form of which is attached hereto as Appendix O for any amounts (a) necessary to make required payments of principal and interest on the Securities, (b) necessary to maintain the Debt Service Reserve, (c) utilized in connection with the ownership and/or operation of the Collateral Rig (including overhead allocations as well as direct costs) and (d) utilized in connection with the performance of the Drilling Contract.

For the avoidance of doubt, during any Blocked Period, Holdings may continue to cause the Collateral Rig Operator to pay amounts due under the Bareboat Charter into the Bareboat Account, and the Collateral Rig Owner may continue to pay amounts due under the Bareboat Charter, if any, into the Earnings Account by delivering a Blocked Period Withdrawal Certificate. At any time during which the Total Leverage Ratio is equal to or less than 10.00:1.00 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter of Holdings and no Default or Event of Default exists, the Collateral Rig Owner and the Collateral Rig Operator shall have unrestricted access to the Bareboat Account or the Earnings Account, as applicable, subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.18 and the Collateral Agent’s revocation of the Blocking Notice as described in Section 4.09(b) if any Blocked Period had previously been in effect.

(b) Concurrently with the execution of this Indenture, the Company shall deliver to the Collateral Agent Appendix N, which contains the authorized signer designations in Part A thereof.

(c) The Collateral Agent shall confirm each funds transfer instruction received in the name of the Company by means of the security procedure selected by the Company and communicated to the Collateral Agent through a signed certificate in the form of Appendix N attached hereto, which upon receipt by the Collateral Agent shall become a part of this Indenture. Once delivered to the Collateral Agent, Appendix N may be received or rescinded only by a writing signed by an authorized representative of the Company. Such revisions or rescissions shall be effective only after actual receipt and following such period of time as may be necessary to afford the Collateral Agent a reasonable opportunity to act on it. If a revised Appendix N or a rescissions of an existing Appendix N is delivered to the Collateral Agent by an entity that is a successor-in-interest to the Company, such document shall be accompanied by additional documentation satisfactory to the Collateral Agent showing that such entity has succeeded to the rights and responsibilities of the Company under this Indenture.

(d) The Company understands the Collateral Agent’s inability to receive or confirm funds transfer instructions pursuant to the security procedures selected by the Company may result in a delay in accomplishing such funds transfer, and agree that the Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any loss caused by any such delay.

SECTION 4.16. [Reserved].

SECTION 4.17. Collateral Rig Classifications; Operation of Collateral Rig; Registry, Name and Flag.

(a) Holdings shall cause the Collateral Rig Operator to operate the Collateral Rig in a manner consistent with reasonable industry practice and to keep the Collateral Rig in a good working order and condition (ordinary wear and tear and loss or damage by casualty or condemnation excepted) so as to ensure that the Collateral Rig is classified by an Acceptable Classification Society, at minimum at the same standard of classification as set forth in the classification certificate as in effect on the Issue Date or other highest classification as is applicable for rigs of its age and type with such classification society, free of any overdue conditions affecting the classification of the Collateral Rig for which no extension has been granted by the Acceptable Classification Society; provided that temporary lapses of such classification as may from time to time arise as a result of the normal operation of the Collateral Rig shall not be deemed to be a breach of this Section 4.17 so long the Collateral Rig Owner or the Collateral Rig Operator is using commercially reasonable efforts to remedy such lapses and actually promptly remedies such lapses.

(b) Holdings shall cause the Collateral Rig Operator to (i) make or cause to be made all repairs to or replacement of any damaged, worn or lost parts or equipment such that the value of the Collateral Rig will not be materially impaired and (ii) except as otherwise contemplated by this Indenture, not remove any material part of, or item of, equipment owned by the Note Parties installed on the Collateral Rig except in the ordinary course of the operation and maintenance of the Collateral Rig or unless (x) the part or item so removed is forthwith replaced by a suitable part or item which is in similar condition as or better condition than the part or item removed, is free from any Lien (other than Permitted Collateral Liens) in favor of any Person other than the Collateral Agent and becomes, upon installation on such Collateral Rig, the property of the Note Parties and subject to the security constituted by the Collateral Rig Mortgage or (y) the removal, individually or in the aggregate, will not materially diminish the value of such Collateral Rig.

SECTION 4.27. Further Assurances.

(a) Each Collateral Grantor party hereto agrees that it will, and Holdings agrees to cause each other Collateral Grantor to, at any time and from time to time, at the expense of such Collateral Grantor, promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action that may be reasonably necessary, to ensure that the Collateral and Guaranty Requirements are satisfied with respect to the Collateral Rig, including to perfect and protect any Lien granted or purported to be granted by the Security Documents, or to enable the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies under the Security Documents.

(e) Notwithstanding any provision contained herein or in any other Note Document, Collateral Rig Substitutions will be permitted so long as Holdings causes the Collateral Rig Owner to satisfy the Collateral and Guaranty Requirements with respect to the Collateral Rig contemporaneously with the consummation of such Collateral Rig Substitution and take such other actions in connection therewith as would otherwise have been required to be taken pursuant to this Indenture had the substituted Acceptable Rig been the Collateral Rig on the Issue Date (including the delivery of relevant opinions, officer certificates, resolutions and organizational documents).

(f) Notwithstanding any provision contained herein or in any other Note Document, Drilling Contract Substitutions will be permitted so long as Holdings causes the Collateral Rig Operator to satisfy the Collateral and Guaranty Requirements with respect to the Drilling Contract contemporaneously with the consummation of such Drilling Contract Substitution and take such other actions in connection therewith as would otherwise have been required to be taken pursuant to this Indenture had the substituted Acceptable Drilling Contract been the Drilling Contract on the Issue Date (including the delivery of relevant opinions, officer certificates, resolutions and organizational documents).

Holdings shall cause the Collateral Rig Operator to continue to be a party to the Master Services Agreement and to have access to the Services (as defined therein) and personnel provided thereunder in order to comply with the performance standards under the Drilling Contract until the stated expiration date of the Drilling Contract regardless of whether the Collateral Rig Owner or the Collateral Rig Operator remains an Affiliate of Holdings.

The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Persons entitled to waive compliance with any covenant or condition hereunder. If a record date is fixed, the Holders of such record date, or their duly appointed agents, and only such Persons shall be entitled to waive any such compliance, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date, provided that unless the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities shall have waived such compliance prior to the date which is 90 days after such record date, any such waiver previously given shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be cancelled and of no further effect.

(e) any Securities Guarantee ceases to be in full force and effect (other than in accordance with the terms of such Securities Guarantee or pursuant to the terms of this Indenture or other applicable Note Document) or any Guarantor denies or disaffirms its obligations under its Securities Guarantee;

(f) the Company or any other Note Party pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

(1) commences a voluntary case,

(2) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case,

(3) consents to the appointment of a Bankruptcy Custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property, or

(4) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors;

(g) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that remains unstayed and in effect for 90 days and that:

(1) is for relief against the Company or any other Note Party as debtor in an involuntary case,

(2) appoints a Bankruptcy Custodian of the Company or any other Note Party or a Bankruptcy Custodian for all or substantially all of the property of the Company, or any other Note Party or

(3) orders the liquidation of the Company or any other Note Party;

(h) except as permitted by the Note Documents, the Security Documents shall for any reason cease to create a valid and perfected first-priority Lien (subject to Permitted Collateral Liens) on any portion of the Collateral having a fair market value in excess of $25,000,000 (in each case, other than in accordance with the terms of this Indenture or the terms of the Security Documents); provided that if such failure is susceptible to cure, no Event of Default shall arise with respect thereto until 45 days after any Officer of any Collateral Grantor becomes aware of such failure, which failure has not been cured during such time period, or (ii) any Collateral Grantor asserts in writing that any Lien created under the Security Documents is invalid or unenforceable; or

(i) if Shell (or any other entity that is the counterparty under the Drilling Contract) is more than 120 days late with respect to the making of any payment due under the Drilling Contract, the failure by the Collateral Rig Operator to actively pursue remedies under the Drilling Contract with respect to such nonpayment.

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default pursuant to this Section 6.01 with respect to Securities all or part of which is represented by a Global Security, a record date shall automatically and without any other action taken by any Person be set for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities entitled to join in any Notice of Default, which record date shall be the close of business on the day the Trustee shall have received such Notice of Default. The Holders of Outstanding Securities on such record date (or their duly appointed agents), and only such Persons, shall be entitled to join in such Notice of Default, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that, unless such Notice of Default shall have become effective by virtue of Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities on such record date (or their duly appointed agents) having joined in such Notice of Default prior to the day which is 90 days after such record date, such Notice of Default shall automatically and without any action by any Person be cancelled and of no further effect. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent a Holder (or duly appointed agent thereof) from giving, before or after expiration of such 90-day period, a Notice of Default contrary to or different from a Notice of Default previously given by a Holder, or from giving, after the expiration of such period, a Notice of Default identical to a Notice of Default that has been cancelled pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, in any of which events a record date in respect thereof shall be set pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6.01.

SECTION 6.02. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. If an Event of Default described in Section 6.01 (other than Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(f) or (g)) with respect to Securities at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount, if any, of the Outstanding Securities, declare the principal amount of all of the Securities and all interest thereon to be due and payable immediately, together with the Make-Whole Premium, if any, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee

if given by the Holders) and upon any such declaration such amounts shall become immediately due and payable. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(f) or (g), the principal amount of all of the Securities, all interest thereon, and the Make-Whole Premium, if any, shall automatically and immediately become due and payable.

For the avoidance of doubt, if the principal amount of the Securities is paid on or prior to August 1, 2021, the Make-Whole Premium provided under Section 3.08 hereof shall be paid, even if such payment is made following acceleration pursuant to this Section 6.02. The Company will pay the Make-Whole Premium, as compensation to the Holders for the loss of their investment opportunity and not as a penalty, whether or not an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(f) or (g) has occurred and (if an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(f) or (g) has occurred) without regard to whether the event causing such Event of Default is voluntary or involuntary, or whether payment occurs pursuant to a motion, plan of reorganization, or otherwise, and without regard to whether the Securities and other Notes Obligations are satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether or not by power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other means. Any premium payable pursuant to this Section 6.02 shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each Holder as a result of the early repayment of the Securities and the Note Parties agree that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. EACH NOTE PARTY EXPRESSLY WAIVES (TO THE FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY LAWFULLY DO SO) THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE MAKE-WHOLE PREMIUM IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION. The Company expressly agrees (to the fullest extent it may lawfully do so) that: (A) the Make-Whole Premium is reasonable and the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) the Make-Whole Premium shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (C) there has been a course of conduct between Holders and the Company giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Make-Whole Premium; and (D) the Company shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. The Company expressly acknowledges that its agreement to pay the Make-Whole Premium to the Trustee for the ratable benefit of the Holders as herein described is a material inducement to Holders to purchase the Securities.

At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to Securities has been made, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter provided in this Article, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

(1) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay in U.S. dollars,

(A) all overdue interest, if any, on all Outstanding Securities,

(B) all unpaid principal of (and premium including the Make-Whole Premium, if any, on) any Outstanding Securities which has become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, and interest, if any, on such unpaid principal (and premium including the Make-Whole Premium, if any) at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities,

(C) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest on overdue interest, if any, at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities, and

(D) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel; and

(2) all Events of Default with respect to Securities other than the non-payment of amounts of principal of (or premium including the Make-Whole Premium, if any, on) or interest on Securities which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 6.13.

No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Upon the Trustee providing any declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment thereof pursuant to this Section 6.02 with respect to Securities all or part of which is represented by a Global Security, a record date shall automatically and without any other action by any Person be set for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities entitled to join such declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be, which record date shall be the close of business on the date the Trustee shall have provided such declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be. The Holders of Outstanding Securities on such record date (or their duly appointed agents), and only such Persons, shall be entitled to join in such declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that, unless such declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be, shall have become effective by virtue of the requisite percentage having been obtained prior to the day which is 90 days after such record date (or their duly appointed agents), such declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may by, shall automatically and without any action by any Person be cancelled and of no further effect. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent a Holder (or duly appointed agent thereof) from giving, before or after the expiration of such 90-day period, a declaration of acceleration, or a rescission and annulment of any such declaration, contrary to or different from a declaration previously given by a Holder, or from giving, after the expiration of such period, a declaration identical to a declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment thereof, as the case may be, that has been cancelled pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, in any of which events a new record date shall be established pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6.02.

SECTION 6.03. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. The Company covenants that if:

(1) default is made in the payment of any installment of interest on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or

(2) default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium including the Make-Whole Premium, if any, on) any Security at the Maturity thereof and on any date required under Section 3.09, the Company shall, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium including the Make-Whole Premium, if any) and interest, if any, and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal (and premium including the Make-Whole Premium, if any) and on any overdue interest, at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name, as Trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so

due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities, wherever situated.

If an Event of Default with respect to Securities occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.

SECTION 6.04. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company for the payment of overdue principal, premium including the Make-Whole Premium, if any, or interest, if any) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,

(1) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (and premium including the Make-Whole Premium, if any) and interest, if any, owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

(2) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payment to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.06.

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

SECTION 6.05. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities. All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

SECTION 6.06. Application of Money Collected. Any money collected by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Article (including upon any realization of any Lien upon Collateral) shall, subject to the terms of the Security Documents, be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed

by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal (or premium including the Make-Whole Premium, if any) or interest, if any, upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee or the Collateral Agent under Section 7.06;

SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of (and premium including the Make-Whole Premium, if any) and interest, if any, on the Securities in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium including the Make-Whole Premium, if any) and interest, if any, respectively; and

THIRD: The balance, to the Person or Persons entitled thereto.

SECTION 6.07. Limitation on Suits. No Holder of any Security shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, the Securities, or the other Note Documents, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder or thereunder, unless:

(1) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities;

(2) the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;

(3) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request;

(4) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and

(5) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities;

it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing themselves of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any such use by a Holder affects, disturbs or prejudices the rights of other Holders or obtains or seeks to obtain priority or preference over such other Holders or enforces any right under this Indenture).

SECTION 6.08. Unconditional Contractual Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest. Subject to the following sentence, notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have the contractual right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment, as provided herein (including, if applicable, Article 8) and in such Security of the principal of (and premium including the Make-Whole Premium, if any) and interest, if any, on such Security on the Stated Maturity or any Maturities (or, in the case of redemption, on the redemption date) and to institute

suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such contractual rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment to, or deletion or waiver of any of the covenants described in Article 4 of this Indenture (other than Section 4.01) or in any other Note Document or any action taken by the Company or Guarantors not prohibited hereunder (other than with respect to actions set forth in the first paragraph of Section 10.02) shall be deemed to impair or affect any rights of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, and premium, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on, the Notes.

SECTION 6.09. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

SECTION 6.10. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 2.07, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

SECTION 6.11. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Securities to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

SECTION 6.12. Control by Holders. The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities in respect of which an Event of Default has occurred shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to the Outstanding Securities, provided that in each case (1) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, and (2) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.

Upon receipt by the Trustee of any such direction with respect to Securities all or part of which is represented by a Global Security, a record date shall automatically and without any further action by any Person be set for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities entitled to join in such direction, which record date shall be the close of business on the day the Trustee shall have received such direction. The Holders of Outstanding Securities on such record date (or their duly appointed agents), and only such Persons, shall be entitled to join in such direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that, unless such direction shall have become effective by virtue of Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities on such record date (or their duly appointed agents) having joined therein on or prior to the 90th day after such record date, such direction shall automatically and without any action by any Person be cancelled and of no further effect. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent a Holder (or a duly appointed agent of a Holder) from giving, before or after the

expiration of such 90-day period, a direction contrary to or different from a direction previously given by a Holder, or from giving, after the expiration of such period, a direction identical to a direction that has been cancelled pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, in any of which events a new record date in respect thereof shall be set pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6.12.

SECTION 6.13. Waiver of Past Defaults. Subject to Section 6.02, the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities may on behalf of the Holders of all the Outstanding Securities waive any past Default or Event of Default hereunder, except a default

(1) in the payment of the principal of (or premium including the Make-Whole Premium, if any) or interest on any Security or the payment of Additional Amounts, if any, or

(2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article 10 cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected.

The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Persons entitled to waive any past Default or Event of Default hereunder. If a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date (or their duly designated agents), and only such Persons, shall be entitled to waive any such default hereunder, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided, that unless such majority in principal amount shall have been obtained prior to the date which is 90 days after such record date, any such waiver previously given shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be cancelled and of no further effect.

Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture and the other Note Documents; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

SECTION 6.14. Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Company, to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder or group of Holders holding in the aggregate more than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or premium including the Make-Whole Premium, if any) or interest on any Security on or after the Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the redemption date).

SECTION 6.15. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted; provided that this Section shall not prohibit the Company from exercising any rights it may have under this Indenture to contest any actions taken by the Trustee pursuant to this Section.

(i) In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

SECTION 7.03. Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee must comply with Section 7.09.

SECTION 7.04. Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture (or any supplement thereto), the Securities or any of the Note Documents, it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Securities, and it shall not be responsible for any statement of the Company in this Indenture, any Note Document or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Securities or in the Securities other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication.

SECTION 7.05. Notice of Defaults. If a Default occurs with respect to the Securities and is continuing and written notice of such Default has been received by the Trustee as specified in Section 7.02(j), the Trustee shall send to each Holder a notice of the Default within 30 days after such written notice of it is received by a Trust Officer of the Trustee. Except in the case of a Default in the payment of principal of, premium (if any) or interest on any Security, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Holders.

SECTION 7.06. Compensation and Indemnity. The Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, agree to: (i) pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its services as has been agreed to by the Company and the Trustee, which compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust; (ii) reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services (such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee’s agents, counsel, advisors, accountants and experts); and (iii) indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless the Trustee (in its individual capacity

and Trustee capacities) and its directors, officers and agents against any and all loss, damage, claims, liability, cost or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and court costs) incurred by it in connection with the acceptance or administration of this Indenture and the trusts thereunder and the performance of its duties hereunder or any of the Note Documents (including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Company or any of the Guarantors (including this Section 7.06) or defending itself against any claim whether asserted by any Holder, the Company, any Priority Unsecured Notes Subsidiary Guarantor, or any Collateral Grantor, or liability in connection with the acceptance, exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder or any of the Note Documents. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment to have been incurred by the Trustee through the Trustee’s own willful misconduct or gross negligence.

To secure the Company’s and the Guarantors’ payment obligations in this Section 7.06, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee other than money or property held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular Securities.

The Company’s and the Guarantors’ payment obligations pursuant to this Section shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. When the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 6.01(f) or (g) with respect to the Company, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law or any similar federal, provincial, territorial or state law for the relief of debtors.

SECTION 7.07. Replacement of Trustee. The Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities may remove the Trustee with respect to the Securities by so notifying with 31 days prior notice to the Trustee and may appoint a successor Trustee. The Company shall remove the Trustee if:

(1) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.09;

(2) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

(3) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or

(4) the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

If the Trustee resigns or is removed by the Company, or is removed by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities and such Holders do not reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trustee), the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.

A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Holders of the Securities. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in Section 7.06.

If a successor Trustee does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee (at the Company’s expense) or the Holders of 10% in principal amount of the Securities may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.09, any Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.06 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

SECTION 7.08. Successor Trustee by Merger. If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.

In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Securities shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Securities so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Securities shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have.

SECTION 7.09. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. (a) There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be:

(1) a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States, or of any state or territory thereof, or of the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority, or

(2) a corporation or other person organized and doing business under the laws of a foreign government permitted to act as a Trustee pursuant to a rule, regulation or other order of the Commission, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, and subject to supervision or examination by authority of such foreign government or a political subdivision thereof substantially equivalent to supervision or examination applicable to United States institutional trustees.

(b) The Trustee shall have at all times a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.

SECTION 7.10. Debt Service Reserve Account.

(a) The Trustee agrees to open and maintain (other than with respect to funding) the Debt Service Reserve Account at all times. All amounts contained in the Debt Service Reserve Account are to be held in trust by the Trustee.

(b) At any time that the amount on deposit in the Debt Service Reserve Account exceeds the Debt Service Reserve, the Company may withdraw the amount of such excess by executing

and delivering a DSRA Withdrawal Certificate the form of which is attached hereto as Appendix L; provided that, the Company shall not make more than two such withdrawals in any calendar year.

(c) Concurrently with the execution of this Indenture, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee Appendix N, which contains the authorized signer designations in Part A thereof.

(d) The Trustee shall confirm each funds transfer instruction received in the name of the Company by means of the security procedure selected by the Company and communicated to the Trustee through a signed certificate in the form of Appendix N attached hereto, which upon receipt by the Trustee shall become a part of this Indenture. Once delivered to the Trustee, Appendix N may be received or rescinded only by a writing signed by an authorized representative of the Company. Such revisions or rescissions shall be effective only after actual receipt and following such period of time as may be necessary to afford the Trustee a reasonable opportunity to act on it. If a revised Appendix N or a rescissions of an existing Appendix N is delivered to the Trustee by an entity that is a successor-in-interest to the Company, such document shall be accompanied by additional documentation satisfactory to the Trustee showing that such entity has succeeded to the rights and responsibilities of the Company under this Indenture.

(e) The Company understands the Trustee’s inability to receive or confirm funds transfer instructions pursuant to the security procedures selected by the Company may result in a delay in accomplishing such funds transfer, and agree that the Trustee shall not be liable for any loss caused by any such delay.

Article 4 (other than Sections 4.01, 4.03 and 4.09(b)) with respect to the Outstanding Securities (including the Securities Guarantees), any covenant added to this Indenture subsequent to the Issue Date and the covenants contained in the other Note Documents on and after the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “covenant defeasance”, and such Securities shall thereafter be deemed not to be “Outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration (and the consequences thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “Outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder). For this purpose, such covenant defeasance means that with respect to such Outstanding Securities the Company (and any applicable Note Party) may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any covenants set out in Article 4 (other than Sections 4.01, 4.03 and 4.09(b)), any covenant added to this Indenture subsequent to the Issue Date and the covenants contained in the other Note Documents, whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document, but the remainder of this Indenture and the Securities shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise of such covenant defeasance, subject to the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 below, Clauses (c), (d) and (f) of Section 6.01 hereof shall not constitute “Events of Default”.

SECTION 8.04. Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The following shall be the conditions to application of either Section 8.02 or Section 8.03 to the Outstanding Securities and Securities Guarantees:

(2) pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders of the Securities, (A) money in an amount, or (B) U.S. Government Obligations applicable to such Securities (determined on the basis of the Currency in which such Securities are then specified as payable at Stated Maturity) which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest, if any, in respect thereof in accordance with their terms shall provide, not later than one day before the due date of any payment of principal of and premium including the Make-Whole Premium, if any, and interest, if any, under such Securities, money in an amount, or (C) a combination thereof, sufficient in the case of (A), (B) or (C), in each case after deducting therefrom the amount contained in the Debt Service Reserve Account as of such date, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of financial advisors or independent chartered professional accountants (expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Company, as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee), without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee (or other qualifying Trustee) to pay and discharge, the principal of (and premium including the Make-Whole Premium, if any) and interest, if any, on the Outstanding Securities on the Stated Maturity (or redemption date, if applicable) of such principal or interest, if any. For this purpose, “U.S. Government Obligations” means securities that are (x) direct obligations of the United States of America for the payment of which its full faith and credit is pledged or (y) obligations of a Person controlled or supervised by and acting as an agency or instrumentality of the United States of America the payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed as a full faith and credit obligation by the United States of America, which, in either case, are not callable or redeemable at the option of the issuer thereof, and shall also include a depository receipt issued by a bank (as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) as custodian with respect to any such U.S. Government Obligation or a specific payment of principal of or interest on any such U.S. Government Obligation held by such custodian or the account of the holder of such depository receipt; provided that (except as required by law) such custodian is

not authorized to make any deduction from the amount payable to the holder of such depository receipt from any amount received by the custodian in respect of the U.S. Government Obligation or a specific payment of principal of or interest on any such U.S. Government Obligation held by such custodian for the account of the holder of such depository receipt;

(3) no Event of Default or event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become an Event of Default with respect to the Securities shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and the granting of Liens to secure such borrowings);

(4) such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any agreement or instrument to which the Company or any Guarantor is a party or by which it is bound (other than this Indenture or any other Note Document and the agreements governing any other Indebtedness being defeased, discharged or replaced);

(5) in the case of an election under Section 8.02, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States stating that (x) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (y) since the date of this Indenture there has been a change in the applicable U.S. Federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the Holders of the Outstanding Securities shall not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. Federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and shall be subject to U.S. Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such defeasance had not occurred;

(6) in the case of an election under Section 8.03, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States to the effect that the Holders of the Outstanding Securities shall not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. Federal income tax purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and shall be subject to U.S. Federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not occurred; and

(7) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for relating to either the defeasance under Section 8.02 or the covenant defeasance under Section 8.03 (as the case may be) have been complied with.

The Collateral will be released from the Liens securing the Note Obligations, as provided in Section 12.02 upon defeasance or covenant defeasance in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.04.

SECTION 8.05. Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. All money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 8.04 in respect of the Outstanding Securities (including the Securities Guarantees) shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any paying agent (including the Company acting as its own paying agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Securities, of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal and interest, if any, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 or the principal (and premium including the Make-Whole Premium, if any) and interest, if any received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the Outstanding Securities.

Anything in this Article 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon a company request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 8.04 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of financial advisors or independent public accountants (expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Company, together with an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee), are, including in the calculation thereof the amount contained in the Debt Service Reserve Account as of such date, in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent defeasance or covenant defeasance.

SECTION 8.06. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or any paying agent is unable to apply any money in accordance with Section 8.05 by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company’s obligations under this Indenture, the Note Documents and such Securities shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be, until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.05; provided, however, that if the Company makes any payment of principal of (or premium including the Make-Whole Premium, if any) or interest, if any, on any such Security following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or paying agent.

Article 11

Guarantees

SECTION 11.01. Guarantees. Each Guarantor of Securities hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, jointly and severally, on a senior basis to each Holder and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns (a) the full and punctual payment of principal of and interest on the Securities when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, and all other monetary obligations of the Company under this Indenture with respect to the Securities and (b) the full and punctual performance within applicable grace periods of all other obligations of the Company under this Indenture with respect to the Securities (all the foregoing, being hereinafter collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Each Guarantor of Securities further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from such Guarantor and that such Guarantor will remain bound under this Article 11 notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any obligation.

Each Guarantor of Securities waives presentation to, demand of, payment from and protest to the Company of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Guarantor of Securities waives notice of any default under the Securities or the Guaranteed Obligations. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder of Securities shall not be affected by (1) the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Company

or any other Person (including any Guarantor) under this Indenture with respect to the Securities or any other agreement or otherwise; (2) any extension or renewal of any thereof; (3) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture with respect to the Securities or any other agreement; (4) the release of any security held by any Holder or the Trustee for the Guaranteed Obligations or any of them; (5) the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations; or (6) except as set forth in Section 11.06, any change in the ownership of such Guarantor.

Each Guarantor of Securities further agrees that its Securities Guarantee herein constitutes a guarantee of payment, performance and compliance when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder or the Trustee to any Security held for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations.

Except as expressly set forth in Sections 9.01, 11.02 and 11.06, the obligations of each Guarantor of Securities hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor of Securities herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Indenture with respect to the Securities or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of such Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.

Each Guarantor of Securities further agrees that its Securities Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest on any obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder or the Trustee upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or otherwise.

In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder of Securities or the Trustee has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Company to pay the principal of or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, or to perform or comply with any other Guaranteed Obligation, each Guarantor hereby promises to and shall, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders or the Trustee an amount equal to the sum of (A) the unpaid amount of such Guaranteed Obligations, (B) accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (but only to the extent not prohibited by law) and (C) all other monetary Guaranteed Obligations of the Company to the Holders and the Trustee.

Each Guarantor of Securities agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the Guaranteed Obligations hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 for the purposes of such Guarantor’s Securities Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby, and (ii) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Guaranteed Obligations as provided in Article 6, such Guaranteed Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by such Guarantor for the purposes of this Section 11.01.

Each Guarantor of Securities also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 11.01.

SECTION 11.02. Limitation on Liability. Any term or provision of this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereunder by any Guarantor of Securities shall not exceed the maximum amount that can be hereby guaranteed without rendering this Indenture, as it relates to such Guarantor, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

SECTION 11.03. Successors and Assigns. This Article 11 shall be binding upon each Guarantor and its successors and assigns and shall enure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Trustee and the Holders and, in the event of any transfer or assignment of rights by any Holder or the Trustee, the rights and privileges conferred upon that party in this Indenture and in the Securities shall automatically extend to and be vested in such transferee or assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions of this Indenture.

SECTION 11.04. No Waiver. Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of either the Trustee or the Holders in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Article 11 shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege. The rights, remedies and benefits of the Trustee and the Holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this Article 11 at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

SECTION 11.05. Modification. No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Article 11, nor the consent to any departure by any Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Trustee, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on any Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

SECTION 11.06. Release of Certain Guarantors. (a) A Guarantor will be automatically released from its obligations under this Article 11:

(1) as provided for in Section 4.13(f);

(2) upon defeasance or covenant defeasance of the Securities pursuant to Article 8 or if the Company’s obligations under this Indenture are satisfied and discharged pursuant to Article 9; or

(3) in the case of the Collateral Rig Owner, upon the replacement of such Collateral Rig Owner in connection with a transfer of the Collateral Rig in accordance with Section 4.29 pursuant to which another wholly-owned Subsidiary of Holdings shall become the Collateral Rig Owner and a Guarantor hereunder.

(b) At the request of the Company and upon delivery of an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel, if required, the Trustee shall execute and deliver an appropriate instrument evidencing the release of a Guarantor pursuant to this Section 11.06.

SECTION 11.07. Execution and Delivery. (a) To evidence its Securities Guarantee set forth in Section 11.01, each Guarantor hereby agrees that this Indenture shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by an officer, director, general manager or person holding an equivalent title.

(b) Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Securities Guarantee set forth in Section 11.01 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Securities Guarantee on the Securities.

(c) If the person whose signature is on this Indenture no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates any Security, the Securities Guarantees shall be valid nevertheless.

(d) The delivery of any Security by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Securities Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.

The Trustee and each of the Holders by acceptance of the Securities hereby authorize the appointment of the Collateral Agent as the Trustee’s and the Holders’ Collateral Agent under the Security Documents and in its capacity as mortgagee and security trustee pursuant to the Collateral Rig Mortgage, and the Trustee and each of the Holders by acceptance of the Securities hereby irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent to enter into the Security Documents and to take such action on their behalf under the provisions of the Security Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms of this Indenture and the Security Documents, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Indenture and the Security Documents, the duties of the Collateral Agent shall be ministerial and administrative in nature, and the Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein and in the Security Documents to which the Collateral Agent is a party, nor shall the Collateral Agent have or be deemed to have any trust or fiduciary relationship with the Trustee, any Holder, the Company, any Collateral Grantor or any Guarantor, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Indenture and the Security Documents or otherwise exist against the Collateral Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Indenture with reference to the Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or

other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

The Trustee is authorized and directed by the Holders and the Holders by acquiring the Securities are deemed to have authorized the Trustee, as applicable, to cause the Collateral Agent to enter into and perform its obligations under the Security Documents. The Collateral Agent is authorized and directed by the Trustee and the Holders and the Holders by acquiring the Securities are deemed to have authorized the Collateral Agent, to (i) enter into the Security Documents to which it is a party, (ii) bind the Trustee and the Holders on the terms as set forth in such Security Documents and (iii) perform and observe its obligations and exercise its rights and powers under such Security Documents, including entering into amendments, supplements and other modifications permitted by the terms of this Indenture or the Security Documents. Each Holder, by its acceptance of a Security, is deemed to have consented and agreed to the terms of each Security Document, as originally in effect and as amended, restated, replaced, supplemented or modified from time to time in accordance with its terms or the terms of this Indenture. Each of the Holders by acquiring the Securities is hereby deemed to have directed the Trustee to appoint the Collateral Agent as its mortgagee and security trustee to receive, hold, administer and enforce the Collateral Rig Mortgage covering the Collateral Rig, as contemplated under this Indenture.

The Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, unless the Collateral Agent shall have received written notice from the Trustee or unless a written notice of any event which is in fact such a Default is received by the Collateral Agent at the address specified in Section 14.01, and such notice references the Securities and this Indenture. The Collateral Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Trustee in accordance with Article 6 or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities (subject to this Section 12.05).

The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation and makes no representation whatsoever to the Trustee or any of the Holders as to the existence, genuineness, value or protection of the Collateral or the sufficiency of any Security Documents, or that the Collateral is owned by any of the Collateral Grantors or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered, or that the Collateral Agent’s Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, maintained or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to determine whether all of the Collateral Grantor’s property constituting Collateral intended to be subject to the Lien and security interest of the Security Documents has been properly and completely listed or delivered, as the case may be, or the genuineness, validity, marketability or sufficiency thereof or title thereto, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities, and powers granted or available to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Indenture or any other Security Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission, or event related thereto, the Collateral Agent shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to the Trustee or any Holder as to any of the foregoing. The grant of permissive rights or powers to the Collateral Agent shall not be construed to impose duties to act. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall require the Collateral Agent to file financing statements or continuation statements, to record any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or be responsible for perfection or maintaining the perfection of the security interests purported to be created by the Security Documents and such responsibility shall be solely that of the Company.

Each of the Collateral Agent and the Trustee, each in its capacity as such, shall not be liable or responsible for the failure of the Company or any Collateral Grantor to maintain insurance on the Collateral, nor shall it be responsible for any loss due to the insufficiency of such insurance or by reason of the failure of any insurer to pay the full amount of any loss against which it may have insured to the Company or any

Collateral Grantor, the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or any other Person. The provisions of Article 7, mutatis mutandis, shall apply to the Collateral Agent.

SECTION 12.06. Replacement of Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent may resign at any time by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities may remove Collateral Agent with respect to the Securities by so notifying with 31 days prior notice to the Collateral Agent and may appoint a successor Collateral Agent. The Company shall remove Collateral Agent if:

(1) the Collateral Agent is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

(2) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Collateral Agent or its property; or

(3) the Collateral Agent otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

If the Collateral Agent resigns or is removed by the Company, or is removed by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities and such Holders do not reasonably promptly appoint a successor Collateral Agent, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Collateral Agent for any reason (the Collateral Agent in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Collateral Agent), the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Collateral Agent.

A successor Collateral Agent shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Collateral Agent and to the Company. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Collateral Agent shall become effective, and the successor Collateral Agent shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Collateral Agent under this Indenture. The successor Collateral Agent shall mail a notice of its succession to Holders of the Securities. The retiring Collateral Agent shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Collateral Agent to the successor Collateral Agent.

If a successor Collateral Agent does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Collateral Agent resigns or is removed, the retiring Collateral Agent or the Holders of 10% in principal amount of the Securities may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent.

SECTION 12.07. Purchaser Protected. No purchaser or grantee of any property or rights purporting to be released from the Liens in favor of the Collateral Agent shall be bound to ascertain the authority of the Collateral Agent or Trustee to execute the release or to inquire as to the existence of any conditions herein prescribed for the exercise of such authority so long as the conditions set forth in Section 12.02 have been satisfied.

SECTION 12.08. Authorization of Receipt of Funds by the Trustee Under the Security Documents. The Trustee is authorized to receive any funds for the benefit of Holders distributed under the Security Documents and to apply such funds as provided in Section 6.06.

SECTION 12.09. Powers Exercisable by Receiver or Trustee. In case the Collateral shall be in the possession of a receiver or trustee, lawfully appointed, the powers conferred in this Article 12 upon any Collateral Grantor, as applicable, with respect to the release, sale or other disposition of such property may be exercised by such receiver or trustee, and an instrument signed by such receiver or trustee shall be deemed the equivalent of any similar instrument of any Collateral Grantor, as applicable, or of any officer or officers thereof required by the provisions of this Article 12.

SECTION 12.10. Compensation and Indemnification. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to the compensation and indemnification set forth in Section 7.06 (with the references to the Trustee therein being deemed to refer to and include the Collateral Agent).

SECTION 12.11. Form of Security Documents and Opinions. To the extent that any provision of this Indenture or any Security Document requires the execution or delivery by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent after the Issue Date of any Security Documents, agreements, certificates, opinions or other documents (including, without limitation, any such opinions or documents described in the definition of “Collateral and Guaranty Requirements”), in each case, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, or other similar discretionary approval, or in substantially in the same form as such Security Documents, agreements, certificates, opinions or other documents were delivered on the Issue Date or as attached hereto, the Holders, by acquiring the Securities, are deemed to have approved the form and substance of any such Security Documents, agreements, certificates, opinions or other documents in substantially the same form as those executed and delivered on the Issue Date, in each case, with such changes as may be appropriate to reflect the entity subject to or the subject of or the governing law of such Security Documents, agreements, certificates, opinions or other documents and the jurisdiction of organization of such entity and hereby authorize the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, to execute such documents and accept such documents and opinions. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 12.11 shall not supersede any requirement contained herein regarding the delivery of an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel.

Article 13

Additional Amounts

SECTION 13.01. Payment of Additional Amounts.

(a) The Company shall pay any amounts due with respect to the Securities and the Guarantors will pay any amounts due with respect to the Securities Guarantees without deduction or withholding for any and all present and future withholding taxes, levies, imposts and charges (a “withholding tax”) imposed by or for the account of the Cayman Islands, Switzerland or any other jurisdiction in which either the Company or a Guarantor is a resident for tax purposes or any political subdivision or taxing authority of such jurisdiction (the “Taxing Jurisdiction”), unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. If such deduction or withholding is at any time required, the Company or such Guarantor, as applicable, will, to the fullest extent allowed by law (subject to compliance by the holder of a Security with any relevant administrative requirements), pay additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) in respect of principal amount, redemption price and interest (if any), in accordance with the terms of the Securities and this Indenture, as may be necessary so that the net amounts paid to the holder or the Trustee after such deduction or withholding will equal the principal amount, redemption price and interest (if any), on the Securities. However, neither the Company nor any Guarantor will pay any Additional Amounts in the following instances:

(1) if any withholding would not be payable or due but for the fact that (i) the holder of a Security (or a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary of, member or shareholder of, the holder, if the holder is an estate, trust, partnership or corporation), is a domiciliary, national or resident of, or engaging in business or maintaining a permanent establishment or being physically present in, the Taxing Jurisdiction or otherwise having some present or former connection with the Taxing Jurisdiction other than the holding or ownership of the Security or the collection of principal amount, redemption price, repurchase price and interest (if any), in accordance with the terms of the Securities and this Indenture, or the enforcement of the Security or (ii) where presentation is required, the Security was presented more than 30 days after the date such payment became due or was provided for, whichever is later;

(2) if any withholding tax is attributable to any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, excise, personal property or similar tax, levy, impost or charge;

(3) if any withholding tax is attributable to any tax, levy, impost or charge which is payable otherwise than by withholding from payment of principal amount, redemption price, repurchase price and interest (if any);

(4) if any withholding tax would not have been imposed but for the failure to comply with certification, information, documentation or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connections with the relevant tax authority of the holder or beneficial owner of the Security, if this compliance is required by statute or by regulation as a precondition to relief or exemption from such withholding tax;

(5) to the extent a holder of a Security is entitled to a refund or credit in such Taxing Jurisdiction of amounts required to be withheld by such Taxing Jurisdiction;

(6) if any withholding is required to be made pursuant to laws enacted by Switzerland providing for the taxation of payments according to principles similar to those laid down in the draft legislation of the Swiss Federal Council of December 17, 2014, or otherwise changing the Swiss federal withholding tax system from an issuer-based system to a paying‑agent‑based system pursuant to which a person other than the issuer is required to withhold tax on any interest payments;

(7) if any withholding tax or deduction is required to be made in respect of any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge imposed or withheld pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code, as of the date hereof (or any amended or successor version), current or future U.S. Treasury Regulations issued thereunder or any official interpretation thereof, any agreement entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b) of the Code, or any fiscal or regulatory legislation, rules or practices adopted pursuant to any intergovernmental agreement entered into in connection with the implementation of such Sections of the Code; or

(8) any combination of the instances described in the preceding clauses.

(b) With respect to clause (a)(5) above, in the absence of evidence satisfactory to the Company or the applicable Guarantor, it may conclusively presume that a holder of a Security is entitled to a refund or credit of all amounts required to be withheld. The Company or the applicable Guarantor also will not pay any Additional Amounts to any holder who is a fiduciary or partnership or other than the sole beneficial owner of the Security to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary, or a member of such partnership or a beneficial owner thereof, would not have been entitled to the payment of such Additional Amounts had such beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been the holder of the Security.

SECTION 13.02. Swiss Minimum Interest.

(a) When entering into this Indenture, the parties have assumed that the payments under the Indenture and the other Note Documents are not and will not become subject to any tax deduction on account of Swiss Withholding Tax.

(b) Notwithstanding the paragraph above if a tax deduction on account of Swiss Withholding Tax should, at any time, be or become required by law in respect of any payment under the Indenture or any other Note Document and should it be unlawful for a Guarantor incorporated in

Switzerland (each, a “Swiss Guarantor”) to comply with Section 13.01 for any reason (where this would otherwise be required by the terms of Section 13.01) then:

(1) the applicable interest rate in relation to that payment shall be the interest rate which would have applied to that payment, as provided for in the applicable Security, divided by 1 minus the rate at which the relevant tax deduction is required to be made under Swiss domestic tax law and/or applicable double taxation treaties (where the rate at which the relevant tax deduction is required to be made is for this purpose expressed as a fraction of 1); and

(2) such Swiss Guarantor shall:

(A) pay the relevant interest at the adjusted rate in accordance with paragraph (1) above;

(B) make a tax deduction on the interest so recalculated; and

Article 14

Failure to mail or otherwise send a notice or communication to a Holder or any defect in it shall not affect its sufficiency with respect to other Holders. If a notice or communication is sent in the manner provided above, it is duly given, whether or not the addressee receives it.

The Trustee and Collateral Agent agree to accept and act upon instructions or directions pursuant to this Indenture and any other Note Document sent by unsecured e-mail, facsimile transmission or other similar unsecured electronic methods; provided, however, that (a) the party providing such written instructions, subsequent to such transmission of written instructions, shall provide the originally executed instructions or directions to the Trustee and Collateral Agent, as applicable, in a timely manner, and such originally executed instructions or directions shall be signed by an authorized representative of the party providing such instructions or directions. If the party elects to give the Trustee and Collateral Agent, as applicable, e-mail or facsimile instructions (or instructions by a similar electronic method) and the Trustee and Collateral Agent, as applicable, in its discretion elects to act upon such instructions, the Trustee’s and Collateral Agent’s, as applicable, understanding of such instructions shall be deemed controlling. The Trustee and Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee’s and Collateral Agent’s reliance upon and compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such instructions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. The party providing electronic instructions agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit instructions and directions to the Trustee and Collateral Agent, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee and Collateral Agent acting on unauthorized instructions, and the risk or interception and misuse by third parties.

(2) an Opinion of Counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all such conditions precedent, if any, have been complied with.

SECTION 14.03. Statements Required in Certificate or Opinion. Each certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a covenant or condition provided for in this Indenture shall include:

(1) a statement that the individual making such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition;

(2) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based;

In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.

Any certificate or opinion of an officer of any Note Party may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate or opinion of, or representation by, counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an officer or officers of any Note Party stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of such Note Party unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous.

Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument.

SECTION 14.07. No Recourse Against Others. A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company or any other Note Party shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Securities or this Indenture or of such Note Party under its Securities Guarantee, this Indenture or other Note Document, as applicable, or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Security, each Holder shall waive and release all such liability. The waiver and release shall be part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities.

SECTION 14.08. Successors. All agreements of the Company and the other Note Parties in this Indenture and the Securities shall bind their respective successors. All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successors.

The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the Global Securities shall be effected through the Depositary in accordance with the provisions hereof and the Applicable Procedures; provided that no procedures set forth herein shall apply to transfers of beneficial interests within a Global Security. Beneficial interests in Restricted Global Securities shall be subject to restrictions on transfer comparable to those set forth herein to the extent required by the Securities Act. Transfers of beneficial interests in Global Securities also shall require compliance with either clause (1) or (2) below, as applicable, as well as one or more of the other following clauses, as applicable:

(1) Transfer of Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Security. Beneficial interests in any Restricted Global Security may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same Restricted Global Security in accordance with the transfer restrictions set forth in the Private Placement Legend and any Applicable Procedures. Beneficial interests in any Unrestricted Global Security may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security. Except as may be required by any Applicable Procedures, no written orders or instructions shall be required to be delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers described in this Section 2.3(a)(1).

(2) All Other Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in Global Securities. In connection with all transfers and exchanges of beneficial interests that are not subject to Section 2.3(a)(1) above, the transferor of any such beneficial interest must deliver to the Registrar either (A)(i) a written order from a Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in accordance with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in another Global Security in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged and (ii) instructions given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the Participant account to be credited with such increase or (B) if permitted under Section 2.3(g) hereof, (i) a written order from a Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in accordance with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to cause to be issued a Definitive Security in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged and (ii) instructions given by the Depositary to the Registrar containing information regarding the Person in whose name such Definitive Security shall be registered to effect the transfer or exchange referred to in (B)(i) above. Upon satisfaction of all of the requirements for transfer or exchange of beneficial interests in Global Securities contained in the Indenture and the Securities or otherwise applicable under the Securities Act, the Trustee shall adjust the principal amount of the relevant Global Security(s) pursuant to Section 2.3(g) hereof.

(3) Transfer of Beneficial Interests in a Restricted Global Security to Another Restricted Global Security. A beneficial interest in any Restricted Global Security may be

A-2

transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Restricted Global Security if the transfer complies with the requirements of Section 2.3(a)(2) above and the Registrar receives the following:

(A) if the transferee will take delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in a 144A Global Security, then the transferor must deliver a certificate in the form of Appendix B hereto, including the certifications in item (1) thereof; and

(B) if the transferee will take delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Security, then the transferor must deliver a certificate in the form of Appendix B hereto, including the certifications in item (2) thereof.

(4) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in a Restricted Global Security for Beneficial Interests in an Unrestricted Global Security. A beneficial interest in any Restricted Global Security may be exchanged by any holder thereof for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security or transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security only if the exchange or transfer complies with the requirements of Section 2.3(a)(2) above and the Registrar receives the following:

(A) if the holder of such beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security proposes to exchange such beneficial interest for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security, a certificate from such holder in the form of Appendix C hereto, including the certifications in item (1)(a) thereof; or

(B) if the holder of such beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security proposes to transfer such beneficial interest to a Person who shall take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security, a certificate from such holder in the form of Appendix B hereto, including the certifications in item (4) thereof; and, in each such case set forth in this clause 4, if the Company or the Registrar so requests or if the Applicable Procedures so require, an Opinion of Counsel in form reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Registrar to the effect that such exchange or transfer shall be effected in compliance with the Securities Act and that the restrictions on transfer contained herein and in the Private Placement Legend shall no longer be required in order to maintain compliance with the Securities Act.

If any such transfer is effected pursuant to this Section 2.3(a)(4) at a time when an Unrestricted Global Security has not yet been issued, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate one or more Unrestricted Global Securities in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of beneficial interests transferred pursuant to this Paragraph 4.

(5) Transfer or Exchange of Beneficial Interests in Unrestricted Global Securities for Beneficial Interests in Restricted Global Securities Prohibited.

[FORM OF REVERSE SIDE SECURITY]

TRANSOCEAN PONTUS LIMITED

6.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2025

Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

1. INTEREST. Transocean Pontus Limited (the “Company”) promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Security at 6.125% per annum. The Company shall pay interest semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, commencing February 1, 2019. Interest on the Securities shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from July 20, 2018. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal, interest and other overdue amounts at a rate per annum equal to the rate which is 2.00% in excess of the rate which would have been payable if such overdue amount had, during the period of non-payment, constituted an outstanding amount of the Securities. Such interest shall be payable in accordance with Section 2.11 of the Indenture.

2. METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Company shall pay interest on the Securities (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of Securities at the close of business on the January 15 and July 15 next preceding the interest payment date even if such Securities are canceled after the record date and on or before the interest payment date. Holders must surrender Securities to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Company shall pay principal and interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. Payments in respect of the Securities represented by a Global Security (including principal, premium and interest) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Depository. The Company shall make all payments in respect of a certificated Security (including principal, premium and interest) by mailing a check to the registered address of each Holder thereof; provided, however, that payments on a certificated Security shall be made by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the payee with a bank in the United States if such Holder elects payment by wire transfer by giving written notice to the Trustee or the Paying Agent to such effect designating such account no later than 30 days immediately preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date as the Trustee may accept in its discretion).

3. PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially, Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, a national banking association duly organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America (the “Trustee”), shall act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may appoint and change any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar without notice. The Company or any of its Affiliates incorporated or organized within The United States of America may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar.

4. INDENTURE. The Company issued the Securities under an Indenture dated as of July 20, 2018 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent. This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of notes of the Company designated as its 6.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2025, initially issued in the aggregate principal amount of $600,000,000. The terms of the Securities include those stated in the Indenture, and Holders are referred to the Indenture for a statement of those terms (which for greater certainty includes the right of exchange of the Securities provided in Appendix A to the Indenture, which is an express term of this Security). To the extent any provision of this Security conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

6. MANDATORY REDEMPTION. The Securities are subject to mandatory redemption as described in Section 3.09 of the Indenture.

7. CHANGE OF CONTROL REPURCHASE EVENT. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Repurchase Event, unless the Company shall have exercised its option pursuant to Section 5 hereof to redeem the Securities, the Company will be required to make an offer to each Holder of the Securities, to repurchase all or any part (in denominations of a minimum principal amount of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Securities at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest on such Securities to, but excluding, the repurchase date.

8. GUARANTEE. The payment by the Company of the principal of, and premium including the Make-Whole Premium, if any, and interest on, the Securities is fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several senior basis by each of the Guarantors to the extent set forth in the Indenture.

The Securities are in registered form without coupons in denominations of a minimum principal amount of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. A Holder may transfer or exchange Securities in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements or transfer documents and the Company will require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange any Securities selected for redemption (except, in the case of a Security to be redeemed in part, the portion of the Security not to be redeemed) or any Securities for a period of 15 days before a selection of Securities to be redeemed or 15 days before an interest payment date.

If money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Company at its request unless an abandoned property law designates another Person.

12. DISCHARGE AND DEFEASANCE. Subject to certain conditions, the Company at any time shall be entitled to terminate some or all of its and any other Note Parties’ obligations under the Securities, the Securities Guarantees, the Indenture and the other Note Documents with respect to the Securities (including the Securities Guarantees) if the Company deposits with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal and interest on the Securities to redemption or maturity (after deducting therefrom the amount contained in the Debt Service Reserve Account as of such date), as the case may be.

13. AMENDMENT; SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture, the Securities and the other Note Documents may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Securities), and any existing default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture, the Securities or the other Note Documents may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Securities). Without the consent of any Holder of Securities, the Indenture, the Securities or the Security Documents may be amended or supplemented to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision which may be inconsistent with any other provision, or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Indenture or other Note Documents, provided such action shall not adversely affect the interests of the Holders in any material respect, to release, terminate or discharge, or to confirm and evidence the release, termination or discharge of, any Collateral or any Securities Guarantee when permitted or required by this Indenture or the Security Documents or to amend or supplement any Security Document in accordance with the Indenture or the Security Document, including, without limitation, upon the replacement of a Collateral Rig Owner or in connection with a transfer of the Drilling Contract, in each case, in accordance with the Indenture.

14. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. The Events of Default relating to the Securities are defined in Section 6.01 of the Indenture. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the rights and obligations of the Company, the other Note Parties, the Trustee and the Holders shall be as set forth in the applicable provisions of the Indenture or other applicable Note Document.

15. TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH COMPANY. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may become a creditor of, or otherwise deal with the Company or any of its Affiliates, with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

16. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company or any other Note Party shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Securities or this Indenture or of such Note Party under its Securities Guarantee, this Indenture or any other Note Document, as applicable, or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Security, each Holder shall waive and release all such liability. By accepting a Security, each Holder waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities.

Exhibit 1.1-6

17. SECURITY DOCUMENTS. The obligations of the Company and the other Note Parties under the Indenture, the Securities and the Security Documents will be secured by a Lien granted to the Collateral Agent on the Collateral.

19. ABBREVIATIONS. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as TEN COM (=tenants in common), TEN ENT (=tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (=joint tenants with rights of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (=custodian), and U/G/M/A (=Uniform Gift to Minors Act).

STATUS OF THE RIGHT OF PLEDGE

This Agreement and the Right of Pledge shall automatically terminate and be released upon (i) the occurrence of any of the events described in clause (a) or (b) of Section 12.02 of the Indenture and the satisfaction of any conditions precedent set forth therein, (ii) consent of the requisite Holders in accordance with Sections 10.02 and 12.02(f) of the Indenture or (iii) (x) the replacement of the Company as the "Collateral Rig Owner" in accordance with (a) a Fundamental Change of the Company not prohibited by Section 4.13 of the Indenture and/or (b) a transaction permitted by Section 4.27 or 4.29 of the Indenture, as applicable, and (y) the entry into a new Share Pledge Agreement by the Equity Pledgor as required by the Indenture.


Quota Pledge Triton Gemini GmbH	6

A partial or intermediate payment or discharge of the Notes Obligations does not entitle the Pledgor to request a release (full or partial) of the Right of Pledge.

Upon termination of the Right of Pledge pursuant to the terms hereof and of the Indenture, the Collateral Agent shall (i) release the Right of Pledge, (ii) release and return the Pledged Quotas to the Pledgor and (iii) execute any documentation necessary or advisable to evidence the release, in each case, at the sole expense of the Pledgor.

Notwithstanding Clauses 0 and 0, if any payment hereunder is avoided or reduced or otherwise set aside by virtue of any bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or similar laws, the liability of the Pledgor under this Agreement and the security interest constituted by this Agreement shall continue and such amount shall not be considered to have been irrevocably paid.

The Right of Pledge shall be cumulative, in addition to and independent of any other security interest now or subsequently granted to the Collateral Agent or the other Secured Creditors for any of the Notes Obligations or any rights, powers and remedies provided by law.

The Right of Pledge shall not be affected in any way by any variation, amendment, restatement, novation, assumption of debt, transfer (including by way of novation), extension, compromise or release of any or all of the Notes Obligations, the Notes, the other Note Documents or of any security interest from time to time therefor.

ENFORCEMENT AND FORECLOSURE

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and at any time during the continuance thereof, the Collateral Agent shall have the right (acting at the direction of Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Securities), but not the obligation to enforce the Right of Pledge and to foreclose on the Pledged Quotas.

Without limiting any of the powers conferred on the Collateral Agent by this Clause 0, upon the security interest constituted by this Agreement becoming enforceable as set out in Clause 0, the Collateral Agent shall have the right (acting at the direction of Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Securities) in its absolute discretion to:

(qq) exercise (or refrain from exercising) any voting rights of the Pledged Quotas;

(rr) apply all dividends and other distributions in respect of the Pledged Quotas to the Notes Obligations in accordance with the Note Documents;

(ss) in order to facilitate the enforcement of the Pledged Quotas as described herein, transfer the Pledged Quotas into the name of nominee(s) of the Collateral Agent as it (acting at the direction of Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Securities) shall require; and

(tt) exercise (or refrain from exercising) the powers and rights conferred on or exercisable by the legal or beneficial owner of the Pledged Quotas.

To the extent permitted under applicable law, the enforcement of the Right of Pledge may take place outside debt enforcement procedures, including by way of private sale (Privatverkauf) of the Pledged Quotas to a third party or by purchase of the Pledged Quotas by the Collateral Agent or another Secured Creditor (Selbsteintritt) at fair value. The Collateral Agent shall (acting at the direction of Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of


Quota Pledge Triton Gemini GmbH	7

Outstanding Securities) enjoy full discretion as to the manner, time and place at which such enforcement is to take place.

The Pledgor waives any right of requesting that the Right of Pledge be exercised before or after foreclosure on any of its other assets or before or after exercise of any other security interest, guarantee or indemnity that may have been granted to the Collateral Agent or the other Secured Creditors for the Notes Obligations. This includes a waiver of Art. 41 para. 1bis of the Swiss Federal Act on Debt Enforcement and Bankruptcy or other applicable insolvency laws.

The Collateral Agent may (acting at the direction of Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Securities) commence other enforcement proceedings against the Pledgor by way of special or general enforcement (Betreibung auf Pfändung oder Konkurs) pursuant to the Swiss Federal Act on Debt Enforcement and Bankruptcy.

ASSIGNMENTS AND TRANSFERS / CHANGES TO SECURED CREDITORS

The Pledgor may not assign, transfer, novate or otherwise dispose of its rights and obligations under this Agreement unless not prohibited by the terms of the Indenture or, otherwise without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Securities).

Under the terms and conditions of the Indenture, a Secured Creditor (represented by the Collateral Agent) may assign or otherwise transfer all or any part of its rights and benefits to a third party (including to a Secured Creditor) and additional parties may join the Indenture. Any such person is hereinafter referred to as an "Additional Party".

The Parties agree that any Additional Party shall immediately and automatically become a Secured Creditor bound by and entitled to this Agreement and the Right of Pledge. Any and all references in this Agreement shall thereafter be construed as including the Additional Party as a Secured Creditor to the extent of its interest in the Notes Obligations.

The Parties agree and hereby irrevocably instruct and empower the Collateral Agent to unilaterally update Schedule 2 from time to time or to otherwise keep an updated list of the Secured Creditors or to be in a position to prepare such list if and when required for the purposes of this Agreement and any other Note Document.

COLLATERAL AGENT / RELATIONSHIP AMONG SECURED CREDITORS

With effect as of the date of this Agreement and until this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Clause 0, each Secured Creditor has and each Additional Party shall be deemed to have appointed, pursuant to the Indenture the Collateral Agent as its agent for all purposes of this Agreement and with full power and authority to act as agent for and on behalf of such Secured Creditor as a direct representative (direkter Stellvertreter) under this Agreement.

The relationship among the Secured Creditors and the relationship between the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Creditors shall be governed by this Agreement, the Indenture and the other relevant Note Documents. The Parties agree that the Pledgor neither need nor may be concerned with such relationship but that it shall be entitled to rely on all acts of the Collateral

(3) It is a requirement of the Indenture that the Pledgor enter into this Agreement in order to grant to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Creditors, a security interest in the Pledged Collateral (as hereinafter defined).

(4) The Pledgor will receive substantial, direct and indirect, benefits from the Issuance.

(5) The Pledgor has duly authorized the execution and delivery of this Agreement in order to secure the prompt and complete payment and performance when due of the Notes Obligations.

NOW, THEREFORE, to secure the prompt payment and performance when due of the Notes Obligations and the performance and observance of all agreements, covenants and provisions contained herein, the Pledgor hereby agrees as follows:

SECTION 1. Pledge. The Pledgor hereby pledges to the Collateral Agent, and grants to the Collateral Agent a security interest in, the following (the “Pledged Collateral”):

(a) the Pledged Shares of the Company and the certificates representing such Pledged Shares, and all dividends, cash, instruments and other property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of the Pledged Shares;

(b) all additional shares of stock of the Company that may from time to time be acquired by the Pledgor in any manner, and the certificates representing such additional shares, and all dividends, cash, instruments and other property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of such additional shares; and

- 2 -

Promptly upon receipt of any certificates representing any additional shares referred to in paragraph (b) above, the Pledgor will deliver such certificates to the Collateral Agent in pledge hereunder.

SECTION 2. Security for Notes Obligations. This Agreement secures the payment and performance when due of the Notes Obligations.

SECTION 3. Delivery of Pledged Collateral. The Pledgor herewith delivers to the Collateral Agent the Certificate, which represents the Pledged Shares, together with a fully completed, undated stock power, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, executed by the Pledgor in blank.

The Pledgor agrees to take the same action with respect to any further shares of stock constituting Pledged Collateral forthwith upon the receipt thereof by the Pledgor.

SECTION 4. Representations and Warranties of the Pledgor. The Pledgor represents and warrants as follows:

(a) The Pledgor is a limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of Hungary. The execution and delivery by the Pledgor of this Agreement and performance by the Pledgor of its obligations hereunder (i) are within the Pledgor’s limited liability company powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary limited liability company action, (ii) do not contravene the Pledgor’s constitutional documents or any applicable law or any material contractual restriction binding on or affecting the Pledgor, (iii) do not require any authorization or approval (including exchange control approval) or other action by, or any notice to or filing with, any applicable governmental authority with authority over the Company or the Pledgor that have not been obtained or made and (iv) except for the Liens created by this Agreement, do not result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon or with respect to the Pledged Collateral, except for Permitted Collateral Liens. This Agreement is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Pledgor enforceable against the Pledgor in accordance with its terms, except as (i) the enforceability thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and (ii) rights of acceleration, if applicable, and the availability of equitable remedies may be limited to equitable principles of general applicability (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law).

(b) The Pledged Shares have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and non-assessable; the Pledgor is the legal and beneficial owner of the Pledged Shares free and clear of any Lien, except Permitted Collateral Liens. The pledge of the Pledged Shares pursuant to this Agreement creates a valid security interest in the Pledged Shares (subject only to Permitted Collateral Liens), securing the payment and performance when due of the Notes Obligations, and, upon the Collateral Agent taking possession or control of the Certificate, which represents the Pledged Shares, the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent in the Pledged Shares constitutes a valid and perfected first priority security interest with respect to the Pledged Shares.

(c) As of the date hereof, the Pledged Shares represented by the Certificate constitute the only issued and outstanding shares of stock of the Company, are common stock, are legally and beneficially owned and registered on the books of the Company as owned by the Pledgor, and evidenced by the Certificate delivered to the Collateral Agent herewith.

SECTION 5. Further Assurances. The Pledgor agrees that at any time and from time to time, at the expense of the Pledgor, the Pledgor will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that may be reasonably necessary in order to perfect and protect any security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable the Collateral Agent to exercise and

- 3 -

enforce its rights (including, without limitation, the registration of the Pledged Collateral in the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominee) and remedies hereunder with respect to any Pledged Collateral, such exercise to be subject to Section 9(a) hereof. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at the written request of the Collateral Agent, the Pledgor agrees to cause its Pledged Shares to be duly registered on the books of the Company in the name of the Collateral Agent or as otherwise directed in writing by the Collateral Agent.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged by the Assignor, the Assignor hereby agrees as follows:

- 4 -

SECTION 8. Earnings Account. The Assignor shall procure that all Earnings are promptly credited to the Earnings Account.

SECTION 9. Miscellaneous.

9.1 Further Assurances. The Assignor agrees that if the Collateral Agent determines this Assignment is insufficient in whole or in part to create a valid security interest in the Earnings Collateral or if such security interest ceases to be a first priority security interest in the Earnings Collateral (subject to Permitted Collateral Liens), it shall, as reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent, execute or cause to be executed such other documents or deliver or cause to be delivered such further assurances as may be necessary in order to create a valid security interest in the Earnings Collateral or to maintain the security interest granted hereunder as a first priority security interest in the Earnings Collateral (subject to Permitted Collateral Liens).

9.2 Remedies Cumulative and Not Exclusive; No Waiver. No failure on the part of the Assignee or any other Secured Creditor to exercise, and no delay in exercising any right hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. Neither the execution nor the delivery of this Assignment shall in any manner impair or affect other security for the Notes Obligations. The rights and remedies of the Assignee provided herein and in the other Note Documents are cumulative and are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies provided by law or otherwise.

9.3 Successors and Assigns. This Assignment and all obligations of the Assignor hereunder shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Assignor and shall, together with the rights and remedies of the Assignee hereunder, inure to the benefit of the Assignee, its respective successors and assigns.

9.5 Invalidity. Any provision of this Assignment held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof or thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

9.6 Notices. All notices, requests, demands or other communications pursuant hereto shall be given in accordance with Section 14.01 of the Indenture. Notices shall be deemed to have been given as set forth in Section 14.01 of the Indenture.

- 5 -

facsimile or electronic transmission, the Assignor shall also deliver an originally executed copy as soon as practicable, but the failure of the Assignor to deliver an originally executed copy of this Assignment shall not affect the validity or effectiveness of this Assignment.

9.8 References. References herein to Sections and Exhibits are to be construed as references to sections of, and exhibits to, this Assignment, unless the context otherwise requires.

9.9 Headings. In this Assignment, Section headings are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be taken into account in the interpretation of this Assignment.

Upon any such termination, the Assignee will, at the Assignor’s sole expense, execute and deliver to the Assignor such documents as the Assignor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.

9.11 Discretion of the Assignee. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, the Assignee shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers; provided, however, that if the taking or exercise of any such discretionary action could reasonably be expected to expose the Assignee to any loss, liability or expense, the Assignee shall have received, upon request therefor, from the Holders indemnity or security (or both) satisfactory to it against such loss, liability or expense that might be incurred in connection therewith. Whenever reference is made herein to any discretionary action by, consent, designation, specification, requirement or approval of, notice, request or other communication from, or other direction given or action to be undertaken or to be (or not to be) suffered or omitted by the Assignee or to any election, decision, opinion, acceptance, use of judgment, expression of satisfaction or other exercise of discretion, rights or remedies to be made (or not to be made) by the Assignee, it is understood that in all cases the Assignee shall have no duty and shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any such action under unless it shall have received written instructions from the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities.

The Shipowner will not cause or permit the Rig to be operated in any manner contrary to applicable law, and the Shipowner will not engage in any unlawful trade or violate any applicable law or carry any cargo, in the case of any of the foregoing that will unreasonably expose the Rig to penalty, forfeiture or capture, and will not do, or suffer or permit to be done, anything which can or may injuriously affect the registration of the Rig under the laws and regulations of the Republic of the Xxxxxxxx Islands and will at all times keep the Rig duly documented thereunder (except in connection with a Flag Jurisdiction Transfer).

Section 4. Payment of Taxes. The Shipowner will pay and discharge, or cause to be paid and discharged, prior to delinquency, all material taxes, assessments and governmental levies imposed on the Rig or any income earned by the Shipowner therefrom; provided that the Shipowner shall not be required to pay or discharge any such tax, assessment or governmental levy (i) that is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which reserves have been provided in conformity with GAAP or (ii) which the failure to effect such payment is not adverse in any material respect to the Secured Creditors, provided that the Rig shall not have been arrested, detained or requisitioned therefor.

Section 8. Release from Arrest. If a libel, complaint or similar process be filed against the Rig or the Rig be otherwise attached, levied upon or taken into custody by virtue of any legal proceeding in any court, the Shipowner will promptly notify the Mortgagee thereof by telex or telefax, or telephone confirmed by letter, at the address, as specified in this Mortgage, and will cause the Rig to be released and all liens thereon other than this Mortgage and other Permitted Collateral Liens to be discharged, will cause a certificate of discharge to be recorded in the case of any recording of a notice of claim of lien, and will promptly notify the Mortgagee thereof in the manner aforesaid. The Shipowner will promptly notify the Mortgagee after it has become known to a senior officer of the Shipowner of any average or salvage incurred by the Rig.

Section 9. Maintenance. 13. The Shipowner will at all times and without cost or expense to the Mortgagee, maintain and preserve, or cause to be maintained and preserved, the Rig and all its material equipment, outfit and appurtenances, tight, staunch, strong, in good condition, working order and repair (ordinary wear and tear and loss or damage by casualty or condemnation excepted) and in all material respects seaworthy and fit for its intended service, and will keep the Rig, or cause her to be kept, in such condition as will entitle her to be classified by an Acceptable Classification Society at minimum at the same standard of classification as set forth in the classification certificate as in effect on the date hereof or other highest classification as is applicable for rigs of its age and type with such classification society, free of any overdue conditions affecting the classification of such Rig for which no extension has been granted by the Acceptable Classification Society, and will at the time of execution of this Mortgage, furnish to the Mortgagee a certificate by such classification society that such classification is maintained; provided that temporary lapses of such classification as may from time to time arise as a result of the normal operation of the Rig shall not be deemed to be a breach of this Section 9 of Article II so long as the Shipowner or the Collateral Rig Operator is using commercially reasonable efforts to remedy such lapses and actually promptly remedies such lapses.

(a) The Rig shall, and the Shipowner covenants that she will, at all times comply with all applicable laws, treaties and conventions to which the Republic of the Xxxxxxxx Islands is a party, and rules and regulations issued thereunder, and shall have on board as and when required thereby valid certificates showing compliance therewith, except where the failure to comply or have such certificates (i) has not resulted in the loss of a material permit relating to the Rig and (ii) could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or a material

adverse effect on (x) the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent or the Secured Creditors under the Note Documents as to the Rig or (y) the value of the Rig.

(b) Upon written request of the Mortgagee (acting at the direction of Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Securities), the Shipowner agrees to promptly notify the Mortgagee of the actual date and place of any survey or drydocking, in order that the Mortgagee may have representatives present if desired. The Shipowner agrees that at the Mortgagee’s request (acting at the direction of Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Securities) it will satisfy the Mortgagee that the expense of such survey or drydocking or work to be done thereat is within Shipowner’s financial capability and will not result in a claim or lien against the Rig in violation of the provisions of this Mortgage, the Indenture or any other Note Document.

(c) The Shipowner shall promptly notify the Mortgagee of and furnish the Mortgagee with full information, including copies of reports and surveys, regarding (i) any accident or damage to the Rig involving repairs where the aggregate cost of repair is likely to exceed Twenty Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000) (or its equivalent in another currency), (ii) any event resulting in a violation of Section 9(a) of Article II hereof, and (iii) any occurrence in consequence whereof the Rig has become or is likely to suffer an Event of Loss.

(d) The Mortgagee (acting at the direction of Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Securities) shall have the right at any time, on reasonable notice, to have its surveyor conduct inspections and surveys of the Rig to ascertain the condition of the Rig and to satisfy itself that the Rig is being properly repaired and maintained, provided that such inspections and surveys shall be at the expense of the Holders unless an Event of Default then exists. Such inspections and surveys shall be conducted at such times and in such manner as will not interfere with the Shipowner’s normal business operations and schedule.

Section 10. Flag. Except as pursuant to a Flag Jurisdiction Transfer and satisfaction of all requirements under the Indenture, the Shipowner will not change the flag of the Rig without the written consent of the Mortgagee (acting at the direction of Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities) and any such written consent to any one change of flag shall not be construed to be a waiver of this provision with respect to any subsequent proposed change of flag.

Section 11. No Sales, Transfers or Mortgages. Except as permitted by and in compliance with the Indenture, the Shipowner will not sell, mortgage or transfer (it being understood that a charter is not a transfer) the Rig.

Section 13. Reimbursement for Expenses.

imposed, repairs, attorney’s fees, necessary translation fees for documents made in a language other than English, and other matters, in each case, as the Shipowner is obligated herein to provide, but fails to provide or which, in the sole judgment of the Mortgagee, are necessary or appropriate for the protection of the security granted by this Mortgage. Such obligation of the Shipowner to reimburse the Mortgagee shall be an additional indebtedness due from the Shipowner, shall bear interest at an interest rate of 8.125% from the date of payment by the Mortgagee to and including the date of reimbursement by the Shipowner, shall be secured by this Mortgage, and shall be payable by the Shipowner on demand. The Mortgagee, though privileged to do so, shall be under no obligation to the Shipowner to make any such expenditure, nor shall the making thereof relieve the Shipowner of any default in that respect.

Section 14. Performance of Charters. The Shipowner will use commercially reasonable efforts to perform any and all charter parties which may be entered into with respect to the Rig.

Section 15. Change in Ownership. The Shipowner further covenants and agrees with the Mortgagee that, so long as any part of the Indebtedness hereby secured remains unpaid, there shall be no change in the ownership of the Rig or any of the shares of the Shipowner without the prior written consent of the Mortgagee (acting at the direction of Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities), in each case except as permitted by, or not prohibited by, and in compliance with the Indenture.

Section 1. Events of Default; Remedies. The Mortgagee may enforce this Mortgage in any way it may decide at any time (in each case, acting at the direction of Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities) at which an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing by exercising any powers conferred on it by law or by this Mortgage and, in addition, may (in each case, acting at the direction of Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities):

(a) demand payment by written notice of the Indebtedness hereby secured, whereupon such payment shall be immediately due and payable, anything contained in the Note Documents or this Mortgage to the contrary notwithstanding and without prejudice to any other rights and remedies of the Mortgagee under the Note Documents or this Mortgage, provided, however, that if, before any sale of the Rig, all defaults shall have been remedied in a manner satisfactory to the Mortgagee (acting at the direction of the requisite Holders in accordance with the Indenture), the Mortgagee (acting at the direction of the requisite Holders in accordance with the Indenture) may waive such defaults by written notice to the Shipowner; but no such waiver shall extend to or affect any subsequent or other default or impair any rights and remedies consequent thereon;

(b) at any time and as often as may be necessary, take any such action as may be necessary or advisable for the purpose of protecting the security created by this Mortgage and each and every expense or liability (including reasonable fees of counsel) so incurred by the Mortgagee in or about the protection of such security shall be repayable to it by the Shipowner

promptly after demand. The Shipowner shall promptly execute and deliver to the Mortgagee such documents or cause promptly to be executed and delivered to the Mortgagee such documents, if any, and shall promptly do and perform such acts, if any, as may be necessary or advisable to facilitate or expedite the protection, maintenance and enforcement of the security created by this Mortgage;

(j) manage, charter, lease, insure, maintain and repair the Rig, and employ, sail or lay up the Rig upon such terms, in such manner and for such period as the Mortgagee, in its absolute discretion, deems expedient or advisable and enter into such arrangements in all respects as if the Mortgagee was the owner of the Rig and without being responsible for any loss thereby incurred;

(k) do anything incidental or conducive to the exercise of its rights as mortgagee of the Rig including discharging any cargo or equipment belonging to any person on board the Rig.

No purchaser shall be bound to inquire whether notice has been given, or whether any default has occurred, or as to the propriety of the sale, or as to the application of the proceeds thereof. In case of any such sale, the Mortgagee, if it is the purchaser, shall be entitled, for the purpose of making settlement or payment for the property purchased, to use and apply the Indebtedness hereby secured in order that there may be credited against the amount remaining due and unpaid thereon the sums payable out of the net proceeds of such sale to the Mortgagee after allowing for the costs and expense of sale and other charges; and thereupon such purchaser shall be credited, on account of such purchase price, with the net proceeds that shall have been so credited upon the Indebtedness hereby secured.

The Mortgagee is hereby irrevocably appointed attorney-in-fact of the Shipowner, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, to execute and deliver to any purchaser aforesaid, and is hereby vested with full power and authority to make, in the name and on behalf of the Shipowner, a good conveyance of the title to the Rig so sold. Any person dealing with the Mortgagee or attorney-in-fact shall not be put on enquiry as to whether the power of attorney contained herein has become exercisable. In the event of any sale of the Rig, under any power herein contained, the Shipowner will, if and when required by the Mortgagee, execute such form of conveyance of the Rig as the Mortgagee (acting at the direction of Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities) may direct or approve.

Section 4. Power of Attorney-Collection. The Mortgagee is hereby irrevocably appointed attorney-in-fact of the Shipowner upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, in the name of the Shipowner to demand, collect, receive, compromise and xxx for, so far as may be permitted by law, all freight, hire, earnings, issues, revenues, income and profits of the Rig and all amounts due from underwriters under any insurance thereon as payment of losses or as return premiums or otherwise, salvage awards and recoveries, recoveries in general average or otherwise, and all other sums due or to become due at the time of the occurrence of any

Event of Default hereof in respect of the Rig, or in respect of any insurance thereon, from any person whomsoever, and to make, give and execute in the name of the Shipowner acquaintances, receipts, releases or other discharges for the same, whether under seal or otherwise, and to endorse and accept in the name of the Shipowner all checks, notes, drafts, warrants, agreements and other instruments in writing with respect to the foregoing. The exercise of such power shall be conclusive evidence of the Mortgagee’s right to exercise it and no person dealing with the Mortgagee shall need to enquire whether the Power of Attorney contained herein has become exercisable. The Shipowner ratifies and confirms whatever the attorney does or purports to do under this Section.

Section 5. Delivery of Rig. Upon the security constituted by this Mortgage becoming immediately enforceable pursuant to Section 1 of Article III (Events of Default; Remedies), the Mortgagee shall (in addition to the powers described in Section 1 of Article III (Events of Default; Remedies)) become forthwith entitled (but not bound) to appoint, by an instrument in writing under its seal or under the hand of any director or officer or authorized signatory, a receiver and/or manager of the Rig upon such terms as to remuneration and otherwise as the Mortgagee (acting at the direction of Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities) shall deem fit with power from time to time to remove any receiver and appoint another in his stead and any receiver shall be the agent of the Shipowner (who shall be solely responsible for his remuneration) and shall have all the powers conferred by law by way of addition to, but without limiting, those powers any receiver shall have all the powers and entitlements conferred on the Mortgagee by this Mortgage and generally shall be entitled to the same protection and to exercise the same powers and discretions as are granted to the Mortgagee under this Mortgage.

Section 6. Mortgagee to Discharge Liens. The Shipowner authorizes and empowers the Mortgagee or its appointees or any of them to appear in the name of the Shipowner, its successors and assigns, in any court of any country or nation of the world where a suit is pending against the Rig because of or on account of any alleged lien (except for Permitted Collateral Liens) against the Rig from which the Rig has not been released and to take such proceedings as to them or any of them may seem proper towards the defense of such suit and the purchase or discharge of such lien, and all expenditures made or incurred by them or any of them for the purpose of such defense or purchase or discharge shall be a debt due from the Shipowner, its successors and assigns, to the Mortgagee, and shall be secured by the lien of this Mortgage in like manner and extent as if the amount and description thereof were written herein.

Section 7. Payment of Expenses. The Shipowner covenants that upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any one or more of the Events of Default, then, upon written demand of the Mortgagee (acting at the direction of Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities), the Shipowner will pay to the Mortgagee the whole amount due and payable in respect of the Indebtedness hereby secured; and in case the Shipowner shall fail to pay the same forthwith upon such demand, the Mortgagee shall be entitled to recover judgment for the whole amount so due and unpaid, together with such further amounts as shall be sufficient to cover the reasonable compensation of the Mortgagee or its agents, attorneys and counsel and any necessary advances, expenses and liabilities made or incurred by it or them or the Mortgagee hereunder. All moneys collected by the Mortgagee under this Section 7 shall be

applied by the Mortgagee in accordance with the provisions of Section 11 of this Article III (Application of Proceeds).

Section 8. Remedies Cumulative. Each and every power and remedy herein given to the Mortgagee shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other power and remedy herein given or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, in admiralty or by statute, and each and every power and remedy whether herein given or otherwise existing may be exercised from time to time and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Mortgagee, and the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of any power or remedy shall not be construed to be a waiver of the right to exercise at the same time or thereafter any other power or remedy. The Mortgagee shall not be required or bound to enforce any of its rights under any of the other Note Documents, prior to enforcing its rights under this Mortgage. No delay or omission by the Mortgagee in the exercise of any right or power or in the pursuance of any remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any such Event of Default or to be an acquiescence therein; nor shall the acceptance by the Mortgagee of any security or of any payment of or on account of the Indebtedness hereby secured maturing after any Event of Default or of any payment on account of any past default be construed to be a waiver of any right to exercise its remedies due to any future Event of Default or of any past Event of Default not completely cured thereby. No consent, waiver or approval of the Mortgagee shall be deemed to be effective unless in writing and duly signed by authorized signatories of the Mortgagee in accordance with the Indenture; any waiver by the Mortgagee of any of the terms of this Mortgage or any consent given under this Mortgage shall only be effective for the purpose and on the terms which it is given and shall be without prejudice to the right to give or withhold consent in relation to future matters (which are either the same or different).

Section 9. Intentionally Omitted.

Section 10. Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case the Mortgagee shall have proceeded to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Mortgage by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Mortgagee, then and in every such case the Shipowner and the Mortgagee shall be restored to its former position and right hereunder with respect to the property subject or intended to be subject to this Mortgage, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Mortgagee shall continue as if no such proceedings had been taken.

Section 11. Application of Proceeds. After an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the proceeds of any sale of the Rig and any and all other moneys received by the Mortgagee pursuant to or under the terms of this Mortgage or in any proceedings hereunder, the application of which has not elsewhere herein been specifically provided for, shall be applied in the manner set forth in Section 6.06 of the Indenture (Application of Money Collected).

Section 12. Possession until Default. Unless one or more Events of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Shipowner (a) shall be suffered and permitted to retain actual possession and use of the Rig and (b) shall have the right, from time to time, in its discretion, and without application to the Mortgagee, and without obtaining a release thereof by the Mortgagee, to dispose of, free from the lien hereof, any boilers, engines, machinery, masts, spars, sails, rigging, boats, anchors, cables, chains, tackle, capstans, outfit, tools, pumps and pumping equipment,

apparel, furniture, drilling equipment, fittings, equipment, spare parts or any other appurtenances of the Rig that are no longer useful, necessary, profitable or advantageous in the operation of the Rig, promptly replacing the same (except to the extent that, individually or in the aggregate, any removal shall not materially diminish the value of the Rig) by new boilers, engines, machinery, masts, spars, sails, rigging, boats, anchors, cables, chains, tackle, capstans, outfit, tools, pumps and pumping equipment, apparel, furniture, drilling equipment, fittings, equipment, spare parts or other appurtenances of substantially equal value to the Shipowner and free from any Lien (other than Permitted Collateral Liens) in favor of an Person other than the Mortgagee, which shall forthwith become subject to the lien of this Mortgage.

Section 13. Severability of Provisions, etc. 33. If any provision of this Mortgage should be deemed invalid or shall be deemed to affect adversely the preferred status of this Mortgage under any applicable law, such provision shall be void and of no effect and shall cease to be a part of this Mortgage without affecting the remaining provisions, which shall remain in full force and effect.

(a) In the event that the Indenture, this Mortgage, any of the other Note Documents or any of the documents or instruments which may from time to time be delivered thereunder or hereunder or any provision thereof or hereof shall be deemed invalidated by present or future law of any nation or by decision of any court, this shall not affect the validity and/or enforceability of all or any other parts of the Indenture, this Mortgage, any of the other Note Documents or such documents or instruments and, in any such case, the Shipowner covenants and agrees that it will execute and deliver such other and further agreements and/or documents and/or instruments and do such things as are reasonably necessary to carry out the true intent of this Mortgage, the Indenture and the other Note Documents.

(b) In the event that the title, or ownership of the Rig shall be requisitioned, purchased or taken by any government of any country or any department, agency or representative thereof, pursuant to any present or future law, proclamation, decree order or otherwise, the lien of this Mortgage shall be deemed to attach to the claim for compensation therefor, and the compensation, purchase or other taking of such title or ownership is hereby agreed to be payable to the Mortgagee who shall be entitled to receive the same and shall apply it as provided in Section 11 of this Article III (Application of Proceeds); provided that if the Rig is replaced pursuant to a Collateral Rig Substitution before the applicable date specified in subclauses (x) and (y) of Section 3.09(b) of the Indenture, such proceeds shall be paid over upon receipt by the Mortgagee to the Shipowner. In the event of any such requisition, purchase or taking, and the failure of the Mortgagee to receive proceeds as herein provided, the Shipowner shall promptly execute and deliver to the Mortgagee such documents, if any, as in the opinion of the Mortgagee may be necessary or useful to facilitate or expedite the collection by the Mortgagee of such part of the compensation, purchase price, reimbursement or award as is payable to it hereunder.

(c) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, it is intended that nothing herein shall waive the priority status of this Mortgage, and if any provision of this Mortgage or portion thereof shall be construed to waive the priority status of this Mortgage, then such provision to such extent shall be void and of no effect.

Section 3.03 No Consent, Approval or Authorization. Except for any consent, authorization or approval which has been obtained or notice of filing that has been made, no consent of any other person or entity and no authorization, approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body is required for:

(ii) the perfection or maintenance of the security interest created hereby (including the first priority (subject to Permitted Collateral Liens) nature of such security interest), other than recordings and filings required by Section 4.01; or

(iii) the exercise by the Collateral Agent of its rights and remedies hereunder.

Section 4.01 Maintenance of the Collateral; Further Assurances. The Pledgor agrees that:

(a) to the extent that a security interest in the Collateral may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement or, in the case of the Pledged Receivables represented by an Instrument, by possession thereof, pursuant to the UCC, the Pledgor shall maintain the security interest created by this Agreement as a perfected first priority security interest (subject to Permitted Collateral Liens) and shall defend such security interest against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever;

(b) it will furnish to the Collateral Agent from time to time statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail; and

In any notice furnished pursuant to this Section 4.02, the Pledgor will expressly state in a conspicuous manner that the notice is required by this Agreement and contains facts that may require additional filings of financing statements or other notices for the purposes of continuing perfection and maintaining the priority of the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Collateral.

Section 4.03 Pledged Receivables. All Instruments representing or evidencing the Pledged Receivables shall promptly be delivered to and held by the Collateral Agent pursuant hereto and shall be in suitable form for transfer by delivery, or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.

ARTICLE V

Remedial Provisions

Section 5.01 Remedies.

If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

(a) The Collateral Agent shall have the right, subject to and in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, to exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or under any other Note Document or otherwise available to it at law, in equity or under any statute or other agreement, all the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) or any other applicable law or otherwise available at law or equity and also may: (i) without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable; and (ii) exercise any and all rights and remedies of the Pledgor under or in connection with the Collateral, or otherwise in respect of the Collateral, including, without limitation, those set forth in Section 9-607 of the UCC. The Pledgor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least 10 days’ notice to the Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. The Collateral Agent and any other Secured Creditor shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in the Pledgor, which right or equity is hereby waived and released. If applicable to any particular item of Collateral, the Pledgor further agrees, at the Collateral Agent’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Collateral Agent at places which the Collateral Agent shall instruct, whether at the Pledgor’s premises or elsewhere. Any

- 5 -

such sale or transfer by the Collateral Agent, either to itself or to any other Person, shall be absolutely free from any claim of right by the Pledgor, including any equity or right of redemption, stay or appraisal which the Pledgor has or may have under any rule of law, regulation or statute now existing or hereafter adopted (and the Pledgor hereby waives any rights it may have in respect thereof). Upon any such sale or transfer, the Collateral Agent shall have the right to deliver, assign and transfer to the purchaser or transferee thereof the Collateral so sold or transferred.

(b) Any cash held by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent and all cash proceeds received by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral may at any time thereafter be applied in whole or in part by the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Creditors, against, all or any part of the Notes Obligations, in the manner set forth in the Indenture.

(c) All payments received by the Pledgor in respect of the Collateral shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, shall be segregated from other funds of the Pledgor and shall be forthwith paid over to the Collateral Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement).

(d) The Collateral Agent is authorized, in connection with any sale of the Collateral pursuant to this Section 5.01, to deliver or otherwise disclose to any prospective purchaser of the Collateral any information in its possession relating to such Collateral.

(e) The Collateral Agent may appoint any Person as agent to perform any act or acts necessary or incident to appropriate or realize upon any Collateral or to any sale or transfer of the Collateral.

(f) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Pledgor hereby waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Collateral Agent arising out of the exercise by it of any rights under this Agreement, other than with respect to the Collateral Agent’s actions constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Section 5.02 Application of Proceeds; Waiver; Deficiency. The Collateral Agent shall apply the proceeds of any collection or sale of Collateral, including any Collateral consisting of cash, as payment for the Notes Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

Section 5.03 Non-Judicial Enforcement.

The Collateral Agent

Section 6.01 Collateral Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact, Etc.

- 6 -

the Pledgor, as appropriate, or in its own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all reasonably appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be reasonably necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Pledgor hereby gives the Collateral Agent the power and right, on behalf of the Pledgor, without notice to or assent by the Pledgor, to do any or all of the following:

(i) unless being disputed in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, pay or discharge taxes and liens (other than liens for taxes not yet delinquent, or which can thereafter be paid without penalty, in each case such that the lien cannot be enforced) levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral, effect any repairs or any insurance called for by the terms of this Agreement, the Indenture or any other Note Document and pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof;

(ii) execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section 5.01, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral; and

(iii) (A) direct any party liable for any payment under any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Creditors) or as the Collateral Agent shall direct; (B) ask or demand for, collect, and receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral; (C) in the name of the Pledgor, as appropriate, or its own name, or otherwise, take possession of and indorse and collect any check, draft, note, acceptance or other instrument for the payment of moneys due with respect to any Collateral and commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any portion thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral; (D) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against the Pledgor with respect to any Collateral; (E) settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as the Collateral Agent may deem appropriate; and (F) sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Collateral Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Collateral Agent’s option and the Pledgor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Collateral Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Collateral Agent’s security interests therein and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as the Pledgor might do.

Anything in this Section 6.01(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, (x) the Collateral Agent agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 6.01(a)

- 7 -

unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and (y) the parties agree that the grant of the power of attorney set forth in this Section 6.01(a) shall not be deemed to create an obligation on the part of the Collateral Agent to take any one or more of the actions described herein.

(b) If the Pledgor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein within the applicable grace periods, the Collateral Agent, at its option, but without any obligation so to do, may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement.

(c) The expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection with actions undertaken as provided in and in accordance with this Section 6.01 shall constitute the Notes Obligations and shall be payable by the Pledgor to the Collateral Agent on demand.

(d) The Pledgor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue and in compliance hereof. All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated and the security interests created hereby are released as set forth in Section 7.10.

Section 6.02 Duty of Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Collateral Agent deals with similar property for its own account. Neither the Collateral Agent, any other Secured Creditor nor any of their respective agents, employees, stockholders, directors and officers shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of the Pledgor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect the Collateral Agent’s and the other Secured Creditors’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor to exercise any such powers. The Collateral Agent shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither it nor any of its agents, employees, stockholders, directors and officers shall be responsible to the Pledgor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non–appealable decision. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Collateral Agent shall be under no duty whatsoever to make or give any presentment, notice of dishonor, protest, demand for performance, notice of non-performance, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, or other notice or demand in connection with any Collateral or the Notes Obligations, or to take any steps necessary to preserve any rights against the Pledgor or any other Person or ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Collateral, whether or not it has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters. The Pledgor, to the extent permitted by applicable law, waives any right of marshaling in respect of any and all Collateral, and waives any right to require the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor to proceed against the Pledgor or any other Person, exhaust any Collateral or enforce any other remedy which the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor now has or may hereafter have against the Pledgor and any other Person.

- 8 -

Section 6.03 Authority of Collateral Agent. The Pledgor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Collateral Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Collateral Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement or in connection with the Notes Obligations shall, as between the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Creditors, be governed by the terms of the Indenture (including, without limitation, the rights and protections set forth therein) and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Collateral Agent and the Pledgor, the Collateral Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Secured Creditors with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and no Pledgor shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

Section 6.04 Limitation on Duty of Collateral Agent in Respect of Collateral. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any security interest in the Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property, and shall not be liable or responsible for any loss, damage or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee appointed by the Collateral Agent in good faith.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral, or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of the Pledgor to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall have no duty to ascertain, monitor, investigate or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms of this Agreement by the Pledgor or any other party to such documents.

Section 6.05 Indemnity and Expenses.

(a) Without prejudice to any other rights or remedies of the Collateral Agent under any of the other Note Documents, the Pledgor agrees to indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless the Collateral Agent (in its individual capacity and as Collateral Agent for the Secured Creditors) and each of its officers, directors and agents (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all loss, damage, claims, liability, cost or expense (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses) incurred by any Indemnified Party, in each case in connection with this Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement of this Agreement), except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from an Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

- 9 -

(b) Without prejudice to any other rights or remedies of the Collateral Agent under any of the other Note Documents, the Pledgor will, upon demand, reimburse the Collateral Agent for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, its agents, counsel, accountants and experts (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses) in connection with (i) the transactions which give rise to this Agreement, the preparation of this Agreement and the administration of this Agreement, (ii) the custody or preservation of, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from or other realization upon, any of the Collateral of the Pledgor, or (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of the Collateral Agent or the other Secured Creditors hereunder.

(a) No amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by the Pledgor herefrom, shall be effective unless the same is in writing and conforms to the requirements set forth in Article 10 of the Indenture.

(b) No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor to exercise, and no delay in exercising any right hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. Neither the execution nor the delivery of this Agreement shall in any manner impair or affect other security for the Notes Obligations. The rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent provided herein and in the other Note Documents are cumulative and are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies provided by law or otherwise.

Section 7.02 Notices, etc.

(a) All notices, requests, demands or other communications pursuant hereto shall be given in accordance with Section 14.01 of the Indenture.

- 10 -

that the Collateral Agent may have had notice or knowledge of any default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder or under any other Note Document, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any of the Notes Obligations is outstanding and unpaid. The provisions of Section 6.05 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Notes Obligations, or the termination of this Agreement or any other Note Document or any provision hereof or thereof or the resignation or removal of the Collateral Agent in accordance with Article 12.06 of the Indenture.

(b) To the extent that any payments on the Notes Obligations or proceeds of any Collateral are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, debtor in possession, receiver or other Person under any bankruptcy law, common law or equitable cause, then to such extent, the Notes Obligations so satisfied shall be revived and continue as if such payment or proceeds had not been received and the Collateral Agent’s and the Secured Creditors’ liens, security interests, rights, powers and remedies under this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. In such event, this Agreement shall be automatically reinstated and the Pledgor shall take such action as may be reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent to effect such reinstatement.

(c) The obligations of the Pledgor under this Agreement are independent of the Notes Obligations or any other obligations of any other pledgor under or in respect of the other Note Documents, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against the Pledgor to enforce this Agreement, irrespective of whether any action is brought against the Pledgor or whether the Pledgor is joined in any such action or actions. All rights of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Creditors and the pledge, assignment and security interest hereunder, and all obligations of the Pledgor hereunder, shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and the Pledgor hereby irrevocably waives (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) any defenses it may now have or may hereafter acquire in any way relating to, any or all of the following:

(iii) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any Collateral or any other collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any guaranty, for all or any of the Notes Obligations;

(vii) any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations) or any existence of or reliance on any representation by any Secured Creditor that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Pledgor.

Section 7.05 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.

(a) This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement.

(b) This Agreement and the other Note Documents to which the Pledgor is a party constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

Section 7.06 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 7.10 Releases, Termination.

Section 7.11 Acceptance. The Pledgor expressly waives notice of acceptance of this Agreement, acceptance on the part of the Secured Creditors being conclusively presumed by their request for this Agreement and delivery of the same to the Collateral Agent.

Section 7.12 General Limitation of Liability. In no event shall the Collateral Agent be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Collateral Agent shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.

In no event shall the Collateral Agent be responsible or liable for special, indirect, or consequential loss, lost profits or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit and diminution in the value thereof) irrespective of whether the Collateral Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

No provision of this Agreement shall require the Collateral Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

Section 7.13 Resignation or Removal of Collateral Agent. If the Collateral Agent resigns or is removed in accordance with the Indenture, such retiring Collateral Agent shall cease to be a party to this Agreement and all obligations imposed upon such retiring Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement shall be terminated as to such retiring Collateral Agent and deemed to be imposed upon the successor Collateral Agent appointed pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, provided, however, the retiring Collateral Agent’s indemnification rights contained in this Agreement, the Indenture or otherwise shall continue in favor of the retiring Collateral Agent.

The Pledgor acknowledges that in order to help the United States government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, pursuant to Federal regulations that became effective on October 1, 2003 (Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act), all financial institutions are required to obtain, verify, record and update information that identifies each person establishing a relationship or opening an account.

CC, effective as of the date hereof, to each of the Pledgees (each of them individually represented by the Collateral Agent, acting in the name and on behalf of the Pledgees) all of its current and future rights, claims, benefits and interest in and to the Bank Account, including, without limitation, the balances standing to the credit of the Pledgor from time to time (collectively the Pledged Assets) as a first ranking continuing pledge (i.e., each of the Pledgees' pledge being equally in the first rank) as security for the prompt and complete payment, discharge and performance of any and all Notes Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, (the Pledge), subject to any Permitted Collateral Liens, including the Bank's Security Interests, it being understood that with respect to the Bank's Security Interests, insofar and for as long as the Bank has not waived such Bank's Security Interests, the bank account pledge effected hereunder shall serve as a second ranking continuing pledge.

(b) The Collateral Agent hereby accepts the Pledge in the name and on behalf of the Pledgees.

2.2 Use of Bank Account

(a) Subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Indenture and for as long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or a Blocked Period is in effect, the Collateral Agent (acting in the name and on behalf of the Pledgees) hereby authorizes the Pledgor to operate the Bank Account, in particular to draw any of the balances standing to the credit of any of the Bank Account, freely in the ordinary course of its business.

(b) The Pledgor shall be free to close the Bank Account at any time without any prior consent or notification of the Collateral Agent; provided that, to the extent required by the Indenture, any amounts standing to the credit of the Bank Account are transferred to another bank account encumbered in favor of the Pledgees.

(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default for which the Pledgor has received written notice from the Collateral Agent of its intent to exercise remedies hereunder or during a Blocked Period, the Pledgor shall no longer be entitled to operate the Bank Account (including disposing of any of the Pledged Assets) unless permitted pursuant to the Indenture, in which case the Pledgees, represented by the Collateral Agent, may inform the Bank about the expiry of the authorization granted under this Article 2.2. Upon the termination of a Blocked Period, the Collateral Agent shall deliver a notice to the Bank reinstating the authorization granted under this Article 2.2.

2.3 Notification and Waiver

(a) On the date hereof, (i) the Pledgor shall send to the Bank a notification letter in relation to the Bank Account, substantially in the form of Annex 2 and duly executed by the Pledgor and countersigned by the Collateral Agent (the Notification), and (ii) the Pledgor shall furnish to the Collateral Agent copies thereof, including sufficient evidence of dispatch.

(b) Further, the Pledgor shall undertake commercially reasonable endeavors to obtain from the Bank within a reasonable period of time after receipt of a Notification a letter duly countersigned by the Bank wherein the Bank (i) acknowledges the Notification and (ii) waives the Bank's Security Interests it may have in relation to the Pledged Assets, substantially in the form of Annex 3 (the Acknowledgement and Waiver), provided that the Bank's Security Interest shall remain in full force and effect as a second ranking security interest and shall be automatically reinstated as a first ranking security upon release of the Pledged Assets in accordance with Article 8, and promptly furnish to the Collateral Agent copies thereof. If the Bank does not waive the Bank's Security Interest but proposes the entry into a tripartite agreement or the like, the Pledgor shall use its commercially reasonable endeavors that such tripartite agreement will be put in place in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Pledgor and the Collateral Agent.

(c) The Collateral Agent is authorized to inform at any time the Bank of the existence of the Pledge and the terms of this Agreement.

5 Covenants

The Company covenants with the Agent:

(a) that it will not cancel, rescind, terminate or repudiate the Contract or request withdrawal of the Drilling Unit from service under the Contract, without giving the Agent prior written notice and a period equal to and concurrent with the period given to Operator in the Contract to remedy any breach entitling the Company to cancel, rescind, terminate or repudiate the Contract, it being understood and agreed that (i) this Clause shall not apply to any termination of the Contract that shall occur by operation of law without action by either the Operator or the Company, and (ii) notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will this Clause grant Agent any rights to remedy any breach of the Contract that was not available to the Operator pursuant to the terms of the Contract;

(b) that it will not without the prior written consent of the Agent (acting with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities in accordance with the Indenture) agree to any material amendment to or material modification or variation of the Contract terms and conditions which are relating and limited to: the termination fees payable; the term of the Contract; the insurance requirements of the Operator pursuant to the Contract; the provisions in the Contract governing the Operator’s and the Company’s rights and obligations to assign or permit assignment of the Contract; or terms of payment under the Contract.

of a majority in principal amount of the Securities) is required under this Clause 5(b), the Operator shall seek such consent from the Holders on behalf of the Company and shall copy the Company in its solicitation of consent from the Holders and any relevant correspondence with the Agent.

FORM OF SECURITY PROCEDURES CERTIFICATE

TRANSOCEAN PONTUS LIMITED

SECURITY PROCEDURES CERTIFICATE

PURSUANT TO SECTION 7.10(d) OF THE INDENTURE

I hereby certify that I am authorized to deliver this Certificate on behalf of Transocean Pontus Limited (the “Company”), and hereby further certify that the names, titles, telephone numbers, email addresses and specimen signatures set forth below identify the persons authorized to provide direction and initiate or confirm transactions, including funds transfer instructions, on behalf of the Company, and that the option checked in Part C of this Certificate is the security procedure selected by the Company for use in verifying that a funds transfer instruction received by the Trustee is that of the Company.

The Company has reviewed each of these security procedures and has determined that the option checked in Part C of this Certificate best meets its requirements; given the size, type and frequency of the instructions it will issue to the Trustee. By selecting the security procedure specified in Part C of this Certificate, the Company acknowledges that it has elected to not use the other security procedures described below and agrees to be bound by any funds transfer instruction, whether or not authorized, issued in its name and accepted by the Trustee in compliance with the particular security procedure chosen by the Company.

NOTICE: The security procedure selected by the Company will not be used to detect errors in the funds transfer instructions given by the Company. If a funds transfer instruction describes the beneficiary of the payment inconsistently by name and account number, payment may be made on the basis of the account number even if it identifies a person different from the named beneficiary. If a funds transfer instruction describes a participating financial institution inconsistently by name and identification number, the identification number may be relied upon as the proper identification of the financial institution. Therefore, it is important that the Company take such steps as it deems prudent to ensure that there are no such inconsistencies in the funds transfer instructions it sends to the Trustee.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has duly executed this Officer’s Certificate.

Part C

Means for delivery of instructions and/or confirmations

The security procedure to be used with respect to funds transfer instructions is checked below:

☐ Option 1. Confirmation by telephone call-back. The Trustee shall confirm funds transfer instructions by telephone call-back to a person at the telephone number designated on Part B above. The person confirming the funds transfer instruction shall be a person other than the person from whom the funds transfer instruction was received, unless only one person is designated in both Parts A and B of this Certificate.

☐ CHECK box, if applicable:

If the Trustee is unable to obtain confirmation by telephone call-back, the Trustee may, at its discretion, confirm by email, as described in Option 2.

☐ Option 2. Confirmation by email. The Trustee shall confirm funds transfer instructions by email to a person at the email address specified for such person in Part B of this Certificate. The person confirming the funds transfer instruction shall be a person other than the person from whom the funds transfer instruction was received, unless only one person is designated in both Parts A and B of this Certificate. The Company understands the risks associated with communicating sensitive matters, including time sensitive matters, by email. The Company further acknowledges that instructions and data sent by email may be less confidential or secure than instructions or data transmitted by other methods. The Trustee shall not be liable for any loss of the confidentiality of instructions and data prior to receipt by the Trustee.

☐ CHECK box, if applicable:

If the Trustee is unable to obtain confirmation by email, the Trustee may, at its discretion, confirm by telephone call-back, as described in Option 1.

☐ Option 3. Delivery of funds transfer instructions by password protected file transfer system only - no confirmation. The Trustee offers the option to deliver funds transfer instructions through a password protected file transfer system. If the Company wishes to use the password protected file transfer system, further instructions will be provided by the Trustee. If the Company chooses this Option 3, it agrees that no further confirmation of funds transfer instructions will be performed by the Trustee.

☐ Option 4. Delivery of funds transfer instructions by password protected file transfer system with confirmation. Same as Option 3 above, but the Trustee shall confirm funds transfer instructions
by telephone call-back or email (must check at least one, may check both) to a person at the telephone number or email address designated on Part B above. By checking a box in the prior sentence, the party shall be deemed to have agreed to the terms of such confirmation option as more fully described in Option 1 and Option 2 above.

Such Subsidiary possesses and is operating in compliance in all material respects with, all franchises, grants, authorizations, licenses, permits, easements, consents, certificates and orders of any governmental authority or self-regulatory body required for the conduct of its business and all such franchises, grants, authorizations, licenses, permits, easements, consents, certifications and orders are valid and in full force and effect, except where the failure to so possess or operate in compliance would not have a Material Adverse Effect, and such Subsidiary has not received notice of any revocation or modification of any such franchise, grant, authorization, license, permit, easement, consent, certification or order or has reason to believe that any such franchise, grant, authorization, license, permit, easement, consent, certification or order will not be renewed in the ordinary course, except where such revocation, modification or non-renewal would not have a Material Adverse Effect; and such Subsidiary is in compliance in all material respects with all applicable federal, state, local and foreign laws, regulations, orders and decrees, except where such non-compliance would not have a Material Adverse Effect on Holdings and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole;

xiv. Such Subsidiary has good and marketable title to all of its property and assets constituting Collateral, free and clear of any lien except for Permitted Collateral Liens;

xv. Such Subsidiary has filed all federal, state, local and foreign tax returns required to be filed through the date hereof or has requested extensions thereof (except where the failure to file would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect) and has paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns (except for cases in which the failure to pay would not have a Material Adverse Effect, or, except as currently being contested in good faith and for which reserves required by U.S. GAAP have been created in the financial statements of Holdings), and no tax deficiency has been determined adversely to such Subsidiary which has had (nor does such Subsidiary have any notice or knowledge of any tax deficiency which could be determined adversely to such Subsidiary and which could have) a Material Adverse Effect;

xvi. Such Subsidiary is insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as Holdings and such Subsidiary reasonably believe to be prudent and customary in the businesses in which it is engaged; such Subsidiary has not been refused any insurance coverage sought or applied for; and such Subsidiary has no reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business at a cost that would not have a Material Adverse Effect; and

xvii. Such Subsidiary and any “employee benefit plan” (as defined under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (as amended, “ERISA,” which term, as used herein, includes the regulations and published interpretations thereunder)) established

Annex I-6

or maintained by such Subsidiary or its “ERISA Affiliates” (as defined below) are in compliance in all material respects with ERISA except for any such non-compliance which would not reasonable be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. “ERISA Affiliate” means, with respect to the such Subsidiary, any member of any group of organizations described in Section 414 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (as amended, the “Code,” which term, as used herein, includes the regulations and published interpretations thereunder) of which such Subsidiary is a member. No “reportable event” (as defined under ERISA) has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur with respect to any “employee benefit plan” established or maintained by such Subsidiary or any of its ERISA Affiliates, which would result in a Material Adverse Effect. No “employee benefit plan” established or maintained by such Subsidiary or any of its ERISA Affiliates, if such “employee benefit plan” were terminated, would have any “amount of unfunded benefit liabilities” (as defined under ERISA) that would result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither such Subsidiary nor any of its ERISA Affiliates has incurred or reasonably expects to incur any liability under Title IV of ERISA with respect to termination of, or withdrawal from, any “employee benefit plan” or Sections 412, 4971, 4975 or 4980B of the Code, which would result in a Material Adverse Effect. Each “employee benefit plan” established or maintained by such Subsidiary or any of its ERISA Affiliates that has been determined by the Internal Revenue Service to be qualified under Section 401 of the Code is so qualified and nothing has occurred, whether by action or failure to act, which would cause the loss of such qualification
