#### Board Composition is a Key Asset
Our Board reflects the diverse background and perspectives from the legacy Noble, Maersk Drilling, and Diamond Offshore boardrooms which has been enhanced by the addition of Patrice Douglas who joined from legacy Diamond board in September 2024. Our highly qualified directors are deeply engaged and committed to Noble’s success, with each director offering unique and critical expertise from a range of energy and external industrial and public sector settings. Importantly, the strategic planning and execution of our successive business integrations have been greatly enhanced by the collaborative efforts and leadership of this group. I am grateful to each of our directors for their invaluable contributions and ask for your support for all nominees on this year’s ballot.

#### Ongoing Commitment to Shareholder Engagement
Maintaining an active, open dialogue with our shareholders continues to be a top priority of the Board. Over the past year, in addition to investor conferences and non-deal roadshows, we have reached out to shareholders representing 70% of our outstanding shares as part of our seasonal shareholder outreach in order to solicit feedback on ESG Initiatives, Executive Compensation Program and our previous proxy statement, and members of our Board and management team had the pleasure of meeting with shareholders representing approximately 49% of our shares as part of this outreach initiative. These discussions have spanned a wide variety of topics, including capital allocation strategy, governance, ESG initiatives, our strategy for growth and long-term value creation and compensation matters such as selection of performance metrics. Shareholder concerns and advice on these and other topics are vital to our planning, and we remain committed to an open dialogue with shareholders in order to maximize value for the Company.

On behalf of the full Board, we thank you for your continued support and investment in the Company. We encourage you to vote for the proposals set forth in this proxy statement.

Sincerely,

Charles M. Sledge
Chairman of the Board of Directors
