| * | Under SEC Rules 456(b) and 457(r), the SEC registration fee will be paid at the time of any particular offering of securities under the registration statement, and is therefore not currently determinable. |

| † | Estimated expenses are not currently known. The foregoing sets forth the general categories of expenses (other than underwriting discounts and commissions) that Helix Energy Solutions Group, Inc. (“Helix,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) anticipates it will incur in connection with the offering of securities under this registration statement. An estimate of the aggregate expenses in connection with the issuance and distribution of the securities being offered will be included in any applicable prospectus supplement. |

| Item 15. | Indemnification of Directors and Officers. |

Helix is subject to Minnesota Statutes Chapter 302A, the Minnesota Business Corporation Act (the “MBCA”). Section 302A.521 of the MBCA provides in substance that, unless prohibited by its articles of incorporation or by-laws, a corporation must indemnify a person, including an officer or director, who is made or threatened to be made a party to a proceeding by reason of the former or present official capacity of the person against judgments, penalties, fines, including, without limitation, excise taxes assessed against the person with respect to an employee benefit plan, settlements, and reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees and disbursements (collectively, the “Expenses”), incurred by such person in connection with the proceeding, if certain criteria are met. These criteria (collectively, the “Indemnification Criteria”), all of which must be met by the person seeking indemnification, are essentially that (a) such person has not been indemnified by another organization or employee benefit plan for the same Expenses, incurred by the person in connection with the proceeding with respect to the same acts or omissions; (b) such person must have acted in good faith; (c) no improper personal benefit was obtained by such person and such person satisfied certain statutory conflicts of interest provisions, if applicable;
