5.4

If the Vessel is sold, or title to the Vessel is otherwise transferred or disposed of, by the Owner at any time after Delivery (other than to a member of the Transocean Group in accordance with Clause 17.3) but before the Loan has been repaid in full, the Owner shall prepay the Loan in full on or before completion of that sale, transfer or other disposal.

Each prepayment of the Loan must be made together with all accrued interest on the amount prepaid and all other sums payable in respect of that amount under the provisions of this Agreement and, in the case of prepayment of the whole of the Loan, shall be accompanied by payment of any and all other sums payable under the Finance Documents.

6.4

If the Owner fails to pay any amount payable by it under a Finance Document on its due date, interest shall accrue on the overdue amount from the due date up to the date of actual payment (both before and after judgment) at a rate which is 2% higher than the rate which would have been payable if the overdue amount had, during the period of non-payment, constituted part of the Loan. Any interest accruing under this Clause 6.4 shall be immediately payable by the Owner on demand by the Lender. If unpaid, any such interest will be compounded with the overdue amount at the end of each Interest Period applicable to that overdue amount but will remain immediately due and payable.

6.5	Interest shall accrue from day to day and shall be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year and the actual number of days elapsed.

7.4	The indemnities contained in the Finance Documents shall continue in full force and effect after the full and final discharge of all amounts outstanding under this Agreement with respect to matters arising prior to that discharge.

7.5	The indemnities contained in Clauses 7.1 and 7.2 shall not apply to the extent that the relevant claims, expenses, liabilities or losses result from the Lender’s gross negligence, default, fraud or wilful misconduct.

4.Quiet Enjoyment

4.1

In consideration of the covenants on the part of the Company contained in this Deed and subject always to (i) there having occurred no material breach on the part of the Company under the Contract (beyond any period given to the Company in the Contract to cure such material breach) in consequence of which the Operator is entitled to terminate and has thereafter lawfully terminated the Contract in accordance with its terms including, without limitation, withdrawal of the Drilling Unit from the Contract by the Operator for nonpayment of hire, and (ii) the Drilling Unit not having become an actual, agreed, arranged or constructive total loss and being no longer available to the Operator under the terms of the Contract, the Mortgagee irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes that, during and throughout the period of the Contract, irrespective of any breach or default by the Operator, or any insolvency of the Operator, or any other circumstance which might otherwise allow the Mortgagee or anyone claiming under or through the Mortgagee to arrest or take possession or control of the Drilling Unit, neither the Mortgagee nor anyone claiming under or through the Mortgagee shall:

[FORM OF DEED OF QUIET ENJOYMENT]

(a)

interfere with or otherwise disturb in any way the Company’s quiet, peaceful and continuing use, possession and employment of the Drilling Unit under the Contract; nor

(b)

without limitation, take any steps to wind up, liquidate or place in administration or receivership the Operator or commence or continue any analogous proceedings in any jurisdiction in respect of the Operator.

4.2

The Mortgagee further undertakes not to exercise any rights it may have against the Drilling Unit or in connection with the Contract and/or the Earnings if an Event of Default occurs except as provided by Clause 4.3 or (in relation to the Earnings only) as provided in the Notice of Assignment.

4.3

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Mortgagee shall promptly notify the Company in writing that an Event of Default has occurred which, but for Clause 4.1, would entitle the Mortgagee to take possession of and/or to sell the Drilling Unit and/or to exercise any right of foreclosure pursuant to the Mortgage and/or exercise any right pursuant to the Assignment. If the Mortgagee so requests in its notice to the Company, and subject to there having occurred no material breach on the part of the Company under the Contract (beyond any period given to the Company in the Contract to cure such material breach), for a period of 15 days after service of such notice by the Mortgagee, the Mortgagee and the Company will consult on the identity of a new counterparty to the Contract, which will be subject to the reasonable approval of the Company (the “Successor Party”), and the Company and the Operator will co-operate with the Mortgagee in order to effect a transfer of the rights under the Contract to such Successor Party within a commercially reasonable amount of time after the Successor Party has been identified, provided that:

(a)

the Successor Party and the Mortgagee enter into a Deed of Quiet Enjoyment with the Company in materially identical terms to this Deed; and

(b)

the Successor Party assumes all the rights and obligations of the Operator under the Contract.

The Mortgagee and the Company each reserve all of their respective rights to exercise all of their respective legal, contractual and equitable rights following the expiration of the 15 day consultation period referenced above in this Clause 4.3 in the event no Successor Party is appointed.

5Covenants

The Company covenants with the Mortgagee:

(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 Mortgagee 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 the Mortgagee any rights to remedy any breach of the Contract that was not available to the Operator pursuant to the terms of the Contract;

[FORM OF DEED OF QUIET ENJOYMENT]

(b)

that it will not without the prior written consent of the Mortgagee agree to any material amendment to or material modification or variation of the Contract terms and conditions that is materially adverse to the Mortgagee, including material amendments related to the termination fees payable under the Contract, the term of the Contract, or terms of payment under the Contract. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood that minor technical and administrative changes (including automatic adjustments to the operating rate and other rates and prices, as provided by the Contract, or changes regarding which of the Company’s affiliates will make payment to the Operator under the Contract) agreed between the Company and the Operator to the Contract from time to time shall not constitute material amendments or modifications or variations for the purpose of this Clause 5(b).
