 Commercial Paper Dealer Agreement 
 4(2) Program 
 This amended and restated agreement (the “Agreement”) sets forth the understandings between
the Issuer and the Dealer, each named on the cover page hereof, in connection with the issuance and sale by the Issuer of its short-term promissory notes (the “Notes”) through the Dealer. This Agreement amends and restates in its entirety
the original agreement of the Issuer and Dealer dated as of December 20, 2007. 
 As used herein, “Redomestication Transactions” means the
transactions pursuant to which, among other things, (i) the Issuer shall organize or cause to be organized (x) Transocean Ltd., a Swiss corporation registered in Zug, Switzerland (“Guarantor”), as a direct wholly owned subsidiary
of the Issuer, and (y) Transocean Cayman Ltd., a Cayman Islands company (“Transocean-Acquisition”), as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of the Guarantor, (ii) the Issuer shall merge with Transocean-Acquisition, pursuant to the
Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of October 9, 2008 among the Issuer, the Guarantor and Transocean-Acquisition, as amended (the “Agreement and Plan of Merger”), by way of schemes of arrangement under Cayman Islands law (the
“Schemes of Arrangement”) as provided in the Agreement and Plan of Merger, with the Issuer being the surviving company in such merger and becoming the direct wholly owned subsidiary of the Guarantor, and (iii) the Guarantor shall
issue, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, one share of the Guarantor in exchange for each share of the Issuer issued and outstanding immediately prior to such merger. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION HEREIN, THE ISSUER AND THE DEALER
AGREE THAT GUARANTOR SHALL HAVE NO RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE GUARANTEE, NOR SHALL GUARANTOR BE DEEMED TO HAVE MADE ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR COVENANTS HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE GUARANTEE, UNTIL THE ACCESSION DELIVERY DATE, WHICH, AS
DEFINED IN SECTION 3.7, SHALL OCCUR ONLY UPON THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY BY THE GUARANTOR OF AN ACCESSION AGREEMENT AND THE GUARANTEE, IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND SUBJECT TO ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS SET FORTH IN SECTION 3.7. 
 Certain terms used in this Agreement are defined in Section 6 hereof. 
 The Addendum to this Agreement, and any Annexes or Exhibits described in this Agreement or such Addendum, are hereby incorporated into this Agreement and made fully a part hereof.

	 	1.1	While (i) the Issuer has and shall have no obligation to sell the Notes to the Dealer or to permit the Dealer to arrange any sale of the Notes for the account of the Issuer,
and (ii) the Dealer has and shall have no obligation to purchase the Notes from the Issuer or to arrange any sale of the Notes for the account of the Issuer, the parties hereto agree that in any case where the Dealer purchases Notes from the
Issuer, or arranges for the sale of Notes by the Issuer, such Notes will be purchased or sold by the Dealer in reliance on the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Issuer and the Guarantor contained herein or made pursuant
hereto and on the terms and conditions and in the manner provided herein and sold by the Issuer in reliance on the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Dealer contained herein or made pursuant hereto and on the terms and
conditions and in the manner provided herein. 

  

	 	1.2	 So long as this Agreement shall remain in effect, and in addition to the limitations contained in Section 1.7 hereof, neither the Issuer nor the Guarantor

contain provisions substantially identical to those contained in Section 1 of this Agreement, of which the Issuer and the Guarantor hereby undertake to provide the Dealer prompt notice or (b) in transactions with the other dealers listed
on the Addendum hereto, which are executing agreements with the Issuer and the Guarantor which contain provisions substantially identical to Section 1 of this Agreement contemporaneously herewith. In no event shall the Issuer or the Guarantor
offer, solicit or accept offers to purchase, or sell, any Notes directly on its own behalf in transactions with persons other than broker-dealers as specifically permitted in this Section 1.2. 


  

	 	1.3	The Notes shall be in a minimum denomination of $250,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, will bear such interest rates, if interest bearing, or will be sold at
such discount from their face amounts, as shall be agreed upon by the Dealer and the Issuer, shall have a maturity not exceeding 397 days from the date of issuance (exclusive of days of grace) and may have such terms as are specified in Exhibit C
hereto or the Private Placement Memorandum. The Notes shall not contain any provision for extension, renewal or automatic “rollover.” 

  

	 	1.4	The authentication and issuance of, and payment for, the Notes shall be effected in accordance with the Issuing and Paying Agency Agreement, and the Notes shall be either individual
physical certificates or book-entry notes evidenced by one or more master notes (each, a “Master Note”) registered in the name of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) or its nominee, in the form or forms annexed to the Issuing
and Paying Agency Agreement. 

  

	 	1.5	If the Issuer and the Dealer shall agree on the terms of the purchase of any Note by the Dealer or the sale of any Note arranged by the Dealer (including, but not limited to,
agreement with respect to the date of issue, purchase price, principal amount, maturity and interest rate or interest rate index and margin (in the case of interest-bearing Notes) or discount thereof (in the case of Notes issued on a discount
basis), and appropriate compensation for the Dealer’s services hereunder) pursuant to this Agreement, the Issuer shall cause such Note to be issued and delivered in accordance with the terms of the Issuing and Paying Agency Agreement and
payment for such Note shall be made by the purchaser thereof, either directly or through the Dealer, to the Issuing and Paying Agent, for the account of the Issuer. Except as otherwise agreed, in the event that the Dealer is acting as an agent and a
purchaser shall either fail to accept delivery of or make payment for a Note on the date fixed for settlement, the Dealer shall promptly notify the Issuer, and if the Dealer has theretofore paid the Issuer for the Note, the Issuer will promptly
return such funds to the Dealer against its return of the Note to the Issuer, in the case of a certificated Note, and upon notice of such failure in the case of a book-entry Note. If such failure occurred for any reason other than default by the
Dealer, the Issuer and the Guarantor agree, jointly and severally, to reimburse the Dealer on an equitable basis for the Dealer’s loss of the use of such funds for the period such funds were credited to the Issuer’s account.

Institutional Accredited Investors or Sophisticated Individual Accredited Investors and (ii) non-bank fiduciaries or agents that will be purchasing Notes for one or more accounts, each of which is reasonably believed by the Dealer to be a
Qualified Institutional Buyer, an Institutional Accredited Investor or Sophisticated Individual Accredited Investor.

	 	(b)	Resales and other transfers of the Notes by the holders thereof shall be made only in accordance with the restrictions in the legend described in clause (e) below and to the
extent such resale is made to or through the Dealer, the Dealer will comply with the provisions of such legend and this Section 1.6. 

  

	 	(c)	No general solicitation or general advertising shall be used in connection with the offering of the Notes. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, without the prior
written approval of the Dealer, neither the Issuer nor the Guarantor shall issue any press release or place or publish any “tombstone” or other advertisement relating to the Notes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any publication by the
Issuer of a notice in accordance with Rule 135c under the Securities Act shall not be deemed to constitute general solicitation or general advertising hereunder and shall not require prior written approval of the Dealer. 

  

	 	(d)	No sale of Notes to any one purchaser shall be for less than $250,000 principal or face amount, and no Note shall be issued in a smaller principal or face amount. If the purchaser

	 	(e)	Offers and sales of the Notes by the Issuer through the Dealer acting as agent for the Issuer shall be made in accordance with Rule 506 under the Securities Act, and shall be

hereunder, as well as on each individual certificate representing a Note and each Master Note representing book-entry Notes offered and sold pursuant to this Agreement. 

  

	 	(f)	The Dealer shall furnish or shall have furnished to each purchaser of Notes for which it has acted as the Dealer a copy of the then-current Private Placement Memorandum unless such
purchaser has previously received a copy of the Private Placement Memorandum as then in effect. The Private Placement Memorandum shall expressly state that any person to whom Notes are offered shall have an opportunity to ask questions of, and
receive information from the Issuer and the Dealer and, on and after the Accession Delivery Date, the Guarantor, and shall provide the addresses and telephone numbers for obtaining further information regarding the Issuer and, on and after the
Accession Delivery Date, the Guarantor. 

  

	 	(g)	The Issuer and the Guarantor, jointly and severally, agree for the benefit of the Dealer and each of the holders and prospective purchasers from time to time of the Notes that, if
at any time (i) prior to the Accession Delivery Date, the Issuer, or (ii) on or after the Accession Delivery Date, the Guarantor, shall not be subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Issuer or the Guarantor will
furnish, upon request and at their expense, to the Dealer and to holders and prospective purchasers of Notes information required by Rule 144A(d)(4)(i) in compliance with Rule 144A(d). 

  

	 	(h)	In the event that any Note offered or to be offered by the Dealer would be ineligible for resale under Rule 144A, the Issuer shall promptly notify the Dealer (by telephone,
confirmed in writing) of such fact and shall promptly prepare and deliver to the Dealer an amendment or supplement to the Private Placement Memorandum describing the Notes that are ineligible, the reason for such ineligibility and any other relevant
information relating thereto.

	 	(i)	The Issuer and the Guarantor represent that neither the Issuer nor the Guarantor is currently issuing commercial paper in the United States market in reliance upon the exemption
provided by Section 3(a)(3) of the Securities Act. The Issuer and the Guarantor agree that, if the Issuer or the Guarantor shall issue commercial paper after the date hereof in reliance upon such exemption (a) the proceeds from the sale of
the Notes will be segregated from the proceeds of the sale of any such commercial paper by being placed in a separate account; (b) the Issuer and the Guarantor will institute appropriate corporate procedures to ensure that the offers and sales
of notes issued by the Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, pursuant to the Section 3(a)(3) exemption are not integrated with offerings and sales of Notes hereunder; and (c) the Issuer and the Guarantor will comply with each of the
requirements of Section 3(a)(3) of the Securities Act in selling commercial paper or other short-term debt securities other than the Notes in the United States. 

  

	 	(j)	The Issuer hereby confirms that it has filed with the SEC a notice on Form D in accordance with Rule 503 under the Securities Act and agrees that it will file such amendments to
such notice as Rule 503 may require. 

  

	 	1.7	Each of the Issuer and the Guarantor hereby represents and warrants to the Dealer, in connection with offers, sales and resales of Notes, as follows: 

  

	 	(a)	The Issuer and the Guarantor hereby confirm to the Dealer that (except as permitted by Section 1.6(i)) within the preceding six months neither the Issuer nor the Guarantor nor
any person other than the Dealer or the other dealers referred to in Section 1.2 hereof acting on behalf of the Issuer or the Guarantor has offered or sold any Notes, or any substantially similar security of the Issuer or the Guarantor
(including, without limitation, medium-term notes issued by the Issuer or the Guarantor), to, or solicited offers to buy any such security from, any person other than the Dealer or the other dealers referred to in Section 1.2 hereof. The Issuer
and the Guarantor also agree that (except as permitted by Section 1.6(i)), as long as the Notes are being offered for sale by the Dealer and the other dealers referred to in Section 1.2 hereof as contemplated hereby and until at least six
months after the offer of Notes hereunder has been terminated, neither the Issuer nor the Guarantor nor any person other than the Dealer or the other dealers referred to in Section 1.2 hereof (except as contemplated by Section 1.2 hereof)
will offer the Notes or any substantially similar security of the Issuer for sale to, or solicit offers to buy any such security from, any person other than the Dealer or the other dealers referred to in Section 1.2 hereof, it being understood
that such agreement is made with a view to bringing the offer and sale of the Notes within the exemption provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 thereunder and shall survive any termination of this Agreement. Each of the
Issuer and the Guarantor hereby represents and warrants that it has not taken or omitted to take, and will not take or omit to take, any action that would cause the offering and sale of Notes hereunder to be integrated with any other offering of
securities, whether such offering is made by the Issuer or the Guarantor or some other party or parties, under circumstances that would cause the offering and sales of the Notes by the Issuer to fail to be exempt under Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act and Rule 506 thereunder. 

  

	 	(b)	 The Issuer represents and agrees that the proceeds of the sale of the Notes are not currently contemplated to be used for the purpose of buying, carrying or trading
securities within the 



  

 n Commercial Paper Dealer Agreement 4(2) Program n 5 








	 	 
meaning of Regulation T and the interpretations thereunder by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. In the event that the Issuer determines
to use such proceeds for the purpose of buying, carrying or trading securities, whether in connection with an acquisition of another company or otherwise, the Issuer shall give the Dealer at least three business days’ prior written notice to
that effect but shall not be required to identify or disclose such securities. The Issuer shall also give the Dealer prompt notice of the actual date that it commences to purchase securities with the proceeds of the Notes. Thereafter, in the event
that the Dealer purchases Notes as principal and does not resell such Notes on the day of such purchase, to the extent necessary to comply with Regulation T and the interpretations thereunder, the Dealer will sell such Notes either (i) only to
offerees it reasonably believes to be Qualified Institutional Buyers or to Qualified Institutional Buyers it reasonably believes are acting for other Qualified Institutional Buyers, in each case in accordance with Rule 144A or (ii) in a manner
which would not cause a violation of Regulation T and the interpretations thereunder. 


  

	 	1.8	The Dealer agrees from time to time upon request of the Issuer to inform the Issuer whether it is holding Notes purchased from the Issuer that it has not yet sold or Notes that have
been sold and subsequently repurchased by the Dealer (specifying in which category each Note so held belongs) and the amount, issue date, maturity and interest rate, if applicable, of each such Note.

or the Guarantor, notify the Issuer and the Guarantor in writing of the existence thereof; provided that (i) the omission so to notify the Issuer or the Guarantor will not relieve the Issuer or the Guarantor from any liability which it may have
hereunder unless and except to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such Claim and such failure results in the forfeiture by the Issuer or the Guarantor of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) the omission so to notify the Issuer or the
Guarantor will not relieve it from liability which it may have to an Indemnitee otherwise than on account of this indemnity agreement. In case any such Claim is made against any Indemnitee and it notifies the Issuer or the Guarantor of the existence
thereof, the Issuer and the Guarantor will be entitled to participate therein, and to the extent that it may elect by written notice delivered to the Indemnitee, to assume and direct the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such
Indemnitee; provided that if the defendants in any such Claim include both the Indemnitee and either the Issuer or the Guarantor or both, and the Indemnitee shall have concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it which are different
from or additional to those available to the Issuer or the Guarantor, the Issuer and the Guarantor shall not have the right to direct the defense of such Claim on behalf of such Indemnitee, and the Indemnitee shall have the right to select separate
counsel to assert such legal defenses on behalf of such Indemnitee. Upon receipt of notice from the Issuer or the Guarantor to such Indemnitee of the election of the Issuer and the Guarantor to assume the defense of such Claim and approval by the
Indemnitee of counsel, the Issuer and the Guarantor will not be liable to such Indemnitee for expenses incurred thereafter by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense thereof (other than reasonable costs of investigation) unless (i) the
Indemnitee shall have employed separate counsel in connection with the assertion of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the next preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that neither the Issuer nor the Guarantor shall be liable
for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to any local counsel in the jurisdiction in which any Claim is brought), approved by the Dealer, representing the Indemnitee who is party to such Claim), (ii) the Issuer and the
Guarantor shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee to represent the Indemnitee within a reasonable time after notice of existence of the Claim or (iii) the Issuer or the Guarantor has authorized in writing the
employment of counsel for the Indemnitee. The indemnity, reimbursement and contribution obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantor hereunder shall be in addition to any other liability the Issuer or the Guarantor may otherwise have to an Indemnitee
and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Issuer, the Guarantor and any Indemnitee. Each of the Issuer and the Guarantor agrees that without the Dealer’s prior
written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld, it will not settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any Claim in respect of which indemnification may be sought under the indemnification provision
of the Agreement (whether or not the Dealer or any other Indemnitee is an actual or potential party to such Claim), unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each Indemnitee from all liability arising out of
such Claim. Neither the Issuer nor the Guarantor shall be 



  

 n Commercial Paper Dealer Agreement 4(2) Program n 22 








	 	 
liable hereunder to any Indemnitee regarding any settlement, compromise or entry of judgment with respect to any Claim unless such settlement, compromise or
entry of judgment is consented to by the Issuer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

 Exhibit C 
 Statement of Terms for Interest – Bearing Commercial Paper Notes of Transocean Inc. 
 THE PROVISIONS SET FORTH BELOW ARE QUALIFIED TO
THE EXTENT APPLICABLE BY THE TRANSACTION SPECIFIC [PRICING] [PRIVATE PLACEMENT MEMORANDUM] SUPPLEMENT (THE “SUPPLEMENT”) (IF ANY) SENT TO EACH PURCHASER AT THE TIME OF THE TRANSACTION. 
  

	1.	General. (a) The obligations of the Issuer to which these terms apply (each a “Note”) are represented by one or more Master Notes (each, a “Master
Note”) issued in the name of (or of a nominee for) The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), which Master Note includes the terms and provisions for the Issuer’s Interest-Bearing Commercial Paper Notes that are set forth in this
Statement of Terms, since this Statement of Terms constitutes an integral part of the Underlying Records as defined and referred to in the Master Note. 

 (b) “Business Day” means any day other than a Saturday or Sunday that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions are authorized or required by law, executive order or regulation to be
closed in New York City and, with respect to LIBOR Notes (as defined below) is also a London Business Day. “London Business Day” means, a day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, on which dealings in deposits in U.S. dollars are transacted in
the London interbank market. 
  

	2.	Interest. (a) Each Note will bear interest at a fixed rate (a “Fixed Rate Note”) or at a floating rate (a “Floating Rate Note”).


 (b) The Supplement sent to each holder of such Note will describe the following terms: (i) whether such Note is a Fixed
Rate Note or a Floating Rate Note and whether such Note is an Original Issue Discount Note (as defined below); (ii) the date on which such Note will be issued (the “Issue Date”); (iii) the Stated Maturity Date (as defined below);
(iv) if such Note is a Fixed Rate Note, the rate per annum at which such Note will bear interest, if any, and the Interest Payment Dates; (v) if such Note is a Floating Rate Note, the Base Rate, the Index Maturity, the Interest Reset
Dates, the Interest Payment Dates and the Spread and/or Spread Multiplier, if any (all as defined below), and any other terms relating to the particular method of calculating the interest rate for such Note; and (vi) any other terms applicable
specifically to such Note. “Original Issue Discount Note” means a Note which has a stated redemption price at the Stated Maturity Date that exceeds its Issue Price by more than a specified de minimis amount and which the Supplement
indicates will be an “Original Issue Discount Note”. 
 (c) Each Fixed Rate Note will bear interest from its Issue Date at the rate
per annum specified in the Supplement until the principal amount thereof is paid or made available for payment. Interest on each Fixed Rate Note will be payable on the dates specified in the Supplement (each an “Interest Payment Date” for
a Fixed Rate Note) and on the Maturity Date (as defined below). Interest on Fixed Rate Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
 If any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date of a Fixed Rate Note falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the required payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest will be payable on the next
succeeding Business Day, and no additional interest will accrue in respect of the payment made on that next succeeding Business Day. 
  

 n Commercial Paper Dealer Agreement 4(2) Program n 24 







 (d) The interest rate on each Floating Rate Note for each Interest Reset Period (as defined below) will
be determined by reference to an interest rate basis (a “Base Rate”) plus or minus a number of basis points (one basis point equals one-hundredth of a percentage point) (the “Spread”), if any, and/or multiplied by a certain
percentage (the “Spread Multiplier”), if any, until the principal thereof is paid or made available for payment. The Supplement will designate which of the following Base Rates is applicable to the related Floating Rate Note: (a) the
CD Rate (a “CD Rate Note”), (b) the Commercial Paper Rate (a “Commercial Paper Rate Note”), (c) the Federal Funds Rate (a “Federal Funds Rate Note”), (d) LIBOR (a “LIBOR Note”), (e) the
Prime Rate (a “Prime Rate Note”), (f) the Treasury Rate (a “Treasury Rate Note”) or (g) such other Base Rate as may be specified in such Supplement. 
 The rate of interest on each Floating Rate Note will be reset daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly or semi-annually (the “Interest Reset Period”). The date or dates on which interest will be reset (each an
“Interest Reset Date”) will be, unless otherwise specified in the Supplement, in the case of Floating Rate Notes which reset daily, each Business Day, in the case of Floating Rate Notes (other than Treasury Rate Notes) that reset weekly,
the Wednesday of each week; in the case of Treasury Rate Notes that reset weekly, the Tuesday of each week; in the case of Floating Rate Notes that reset monthly, the third Wednesday of each month; in the case of Floating Rate Notes that reset
quarterly, the third Wednesday of March, June, September and December; and in the case of Floating Rate Notes that reset semiannually, the third Wednesday of the two months specified in the Supplement. If any Interest Reset Date for any Floating
Rate Note is not a Business Day, such Interest Reset Date will be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day, except that in the case of a LIBOR Note, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Reset Date
shall be the immediately preceding Business Day. Interest on each Floating Rate Note will be payable monthly, quarterly or semiannually (the “Interest Payment Period”) and on the Maturity Date. Unless otherwise specified in the Supplement,
and except as provided below, the date or dates on which interest will be payable (each an “Interest Payment Date” for a Floating Rate Note) will be, in the case of Floating Rate Notes with a monthly Interest Payment Period, on the third
Wednesday of each month; in the case of Floating Rate Notes with a quarterly Interest Payment Period, on the third Wednesday of March, June, September and December; and in the case of Floating Rate Notes with a semiannual Interest Payment Period, on
the third Wednesday of the two months specified in the Supplement. In addition, the Maturity Date will also be an Interest Payment Date. 
 If any Interest
Payment Date for any Floating Rate Note (other than an Interest Payment Date occurring on the Maturity Date) would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day,
except that in the case of a LIBOR Note, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Payment Date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day. If the Maturity Date of a Floating Rate Note falls on a day that is
not a Business Day, the payment of principal and interest will be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest on such payment shall accrue for the period from and after such maturity. 
 Interest payments on each Interest Payment Date for Floating Rate Notes will include accrued interest from and including the Issue Date or from and including the last
date in respect of which interest has been paid, as the case may be, to, but excluding, such Interest Payment Date. On the Maturity Date, the interest payable on a Floating Rate Note will include interest accrued to, but excluding, the Maturity
Date. Accrued interest will be calculated by multiplying the principal amount of a Floating Rate Note by an accrued interest factor. This accrued interest factor will be computed by adding the interest factors calculated for each day in the period
for which accrued interest is being calculated. The interest factor (expressed as a decimal) for each such day will be computed by dividing the interest rate applicable to such day by 360, in the cases where the Base Rate is the CD Rate, Commercial
Paper Rate, Federal Funds Rate, LIBOR or Prime Rate, or by the actual number of days in the year, in the case where the Base Rate 

  

 n Commercial Paper Dealer Agreement 4(2) Program n 25 







 
is the Treasury Rate. The interest rate in effect on each day will be (i) if such day is an Interest Reset Date, the interest rate with respect to the
Interest Determination Date (as defined below) pertaining to such Interest Reset Date, or (ii) if such day is not an Interest Reset Date, the interest rate with respect to the Interest Determination Date pertaining to the next preceding
Interest Reset Date, subject in either case to any adjustment by a Spread and/or a Spread Multiplier. 
 The “Interest Determination Date” where
the Base Rate is the CD Rate or the Commercial Paper Rate will be the second Business Day next preceding an Interest Reset Date. The Interest Determination Date where the Base Rate is the Federal Funds Rate or the Prime Rate will be the Business Day
next preceding an Interest Reset Date. The Interest Determination Date where the Base Rate is LIBOR will be the second London Business Day next preceding an Interest Reset Date. The Interest Determination Date where the Base Rate is the Treasury
Rate will be the day of the week in which such Interest Reset Date falls when Treasury Bills are normally auctioned. Treasury Bills are normally sold at auction on Monday of each week, unless that day is a legal holiday, in which case the auction is
held on the following Tuesday or the preceding Friday. If an auction is so held on the preceding Friday, such Friday will be the Interest Determination Date pertaining to the Interest Reset Date occurring in the next succeeding week. 
 The “Index Maturity” is the period to maturity of the instrument or obligation from which the applicable Base Rate is calculated. 
 The “Calculation Date,” where applicable, shall be the earlier of (i) the tenth calendar day following the applicable Interest Determination Date or
(ii) the Business Day preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date. 
 All times referred to herein reflect New York City time,
unless otherwise specified. 
 The Issuer shall specify in writing to the Issuing and Paying Agent which party will be the calculation agent (the
“Calculation Agent”) with respect to the Floating Rate Notes. The Calculation Agent will provide the interest rate then in effect and, if determined, the interest rate which will become effective on the next Interest Reset Date with
respect to such Floating Rate Note to the Issuing and Paying Agent as soon as the interest rate with respect to such Floating Rate Note has been determined and as soon as practicable after any change in such interest rate. 
 All percentages resulting from any calculation on Floating Rate Notes will be rounded to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with five-one
millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards. For example, 9.876545% (or .09876545) would be rounded to 9.87655% (or .0987655). All dollar amounts used in or resulting from any calculation on Floating Rate Notes will be rounded, in the case of
U.S. dollars, to the nearest cent or, in the case of a foreign currency, to the nearest unit (with one-half cent or unit being rounded upwards). 
 CD
Rate Notes 
 “CD Rate” means the rate on any Interest Determination Date for negotiable certificates of deposit having the
Index Maturity as published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “FRB”) in “Statistical Release H.15(519), Selected Interest Rates” or any successor publication of the FRB (“H.15(519)”) under the
heading “CDs (Secondary Market)”. 
 If the above rate is not published in H.15(519) by 3:00 p.m. on the Calculation Date, the CD
Rate will be the rate on such Interest Determination Date set forth in the daily update of H.15(519), available through the world wide website of the FRB at http://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/h15/Update, or any successor site or publication or
other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate (“H.15 Daily Update”) under the caption “CDs (Secondary Market)”. 
  

 n Commercial Paper Dealer Agreement 4(2) Program n 26 







 If such rate is not published in either H.15(519) or H.15 Daily Update by 3:00 p.m. on the Calculation
Date, the Calculation Agent will determine the CD Rate to be the arithmetic mean of the secondary market offered rates as of 10:00 a.m. on such Interest Determination Date of three leading nonbank dealers1 in negotiable U.S. dollar certificates of deposit in New York City selected by the Calculation Agent for negotiable U.S. dollar certificates of deposit of major United States money
center banks of the highest credit standing in the market for negotiable certificates of deposit with a remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity in the denomination of $5,000,000. 
 If the dealers selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as set forth above, the CD Rate will remain the CD Rate then in effect on such Interest
Determination Date. 
 Commercial Paper Rate Notes 
 “Commercial Paper Rate” means the Money Market Yield (calculated as described below) of the rate on any Interest Determination Date for commercial paper having the Index Maturity, as published in H.15(519)
under the heading “Commercial Paper-Nonfinancial”. 
 If the above rate is not published in H.15(519) by 3:00 p.m. on the
Calculation Date, then the Commercial Paper Rate will be the Money Market Yield of the rate on such Interest Determination Date for commercial paper of the Index Maturity as published in H.15 Daily Update under the heading “Commercial
Paper-Nonfinancial”. 
 If by 3:00 p.m. on such Calculation Date such rate is not published in either H.15(519) or H.15 Daily Update,
then the Calculation Agent will determine the Commercial Paper Rate to be the Money Market Yield of the arithmetic mean of the offered rates as of 11:00 a.m. on such Interest Determination Date of three leading dealers of U.S. dollar commercial
paper in New York City selected by the Calculation Agent for commercial paper of the Index Maturity placed for an industrial issuer whose bond rating is “AA,” or the equivalent, from a nationally recognized statistical rating organization.

 If the dealers selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as mentioned above, the Commercial Paper Rate with respect to such
Interest Determination Date will remain the Commercial Paper Rate then in effect on such Interest Determination Date. 
 “Money Market
Yield” will be a yield calculated in accordance with the following formula: 
  

							
	Money Market Yield =	  	D x 360	 		  	x 100
	  	 	  
	  	360 - (D x M)	 		  

 where “D” refers to the applicable per annum rate for commercial paper quoted on a bank
discount basis and expressed as a decimal and “M” refers to the actual number of days in the interest period for which interest is being calculated. 
 Federal Funds Rate Notes 
 “Federal Funds Rate” means the rate on any Interest Determination Date for Federal Funds
as published in Reuters (or any successor service) on page FEDFUNDS1 under the heading “EFFECT” (or any other page as may replace the specified page on that service) (“Reuters Page FEDFUNDS1”).

 n Commercial Paper Dealer Agreement 4(2) Program n 27 







 If the above rate does not appear on Reuters Page FEDFUNDS1 or is not so published by 3:00 p.m. on the
Calculation Date, the Federal Funds Rate will be the rate on such Interest Determination Date as published in H.15 Daily Update under the heading “Federal Funds/(Effective)”. 
 If such rate is not published as described above by 3:00 p.m. on the Calculation Date, the Calculation Agent will determine the Federal Funds Rate to be
the arithmetic mean of the rates for the last transaction in overnight U.S. dollar federal funds arranged by each of three leading brokers of Federal Funds transactions in New York City selected by the Calculation Agent prior to 9:00 a.m. on such
Interest Determination Date. 
 If the brokers selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as mentioned above, the Federal Funds Rate
will remain the Federal Funds Rate then in effect on such Interest Determination Date. 
 LIBOR Notes 
 The London Interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”) means, with respect to any Interest Determination Date, the rate for deposits in U.S. dollars having
the Index Maturity that appears on the Designated LIBOR Page as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on such Interest Determination Date. 
 If no rate
appears, LIBOR will be determined on the basis of the rates at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such Interest Determination Date at which deposits in U.S. dollars are offered to prime banks in the London interbank market by four major banks
in such market selected by the Calculation Agent for a term equal to the Index Maturity and in principal amount equal to an amount that in the Calculation Agent’s judgment is representative for a single transaction in U.S. dollars in such
market at such time (a “Representative Amount”). The Calculation Agent will request the principal London office of each of such banks to provide a quotation of its rate. If at least two such quotations are provided, LIBOR will be the
arithmetic mean of such quotations. If fewer than two quotations are provided, LIBOR for such interest period will be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted at approximately 11:00 a.m., in New York City, on such Interest Determination Date by three
major banks in New York City, selected by the Calculation Agent, for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks, for a term equal to the Index Maturity and in a Representative Amount; provided, however, that if fewer than three banks so
selected by the Calculation Agent are providing such quotations, the then existing LIBOR rate will remain in effect for such Interest Payment Period. 
 “Designated LIBOR Page” means Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page or any replacement page or pages on which London interbank rates of major banks for the Index Currency are displayed. 
 Prime Rate Notes 
 “Prime Rate” means the
rate on any Interest Determination Date as published in H.15(519) under the heading “Bank Prime Loan”. 
 If the above rate is not
published in H.15(519) prior to 3:00 p.m. on the Calculation Date, then the Prime Rate will be the rate on such Interest Determination Date as published in H.15 Daily Update opposite the caption “Bank Prime Loan”. 
 If the rate is not published prior to 3:00 p.m. on the Calculation Date in either H.15(519) or H.15 Daily Update, then the Calculation Agent will
determine the Prime Rate to be the arithmetic mean of the rates of interest publicly announced by each bank that appears on the Reuters Screen US PRIME1 Page (as defined below) as such bank’s prime rate or base lending rate as of 11:00 a.m., on
that Interest Determination Date. 
  

 n Commercial Paper Dealer Agreement 4(2) Program n 28 







 If fewer than four such rates referred to above are so published by 3:00 p.m. on the Calculation Date,
the Calculation Agent will determine the Prime Rate to be the arithmetic mean of the prime rates or base lending rates quoted on the basis of the actual number of days in the year divided by 360 as of the close of business on such Interest
Determination Date by three major banks in New York City selected by the Calculation Agent. 
 If the banks selected are not quoting as
mentioned above, the Prime Rate will remain the Prime Rate in effect on such Interest Determination Date. 
 “Reuters Screen US Prime1
Page” means the display designated as page “USPrime1” of the Reuters Service, or any successor service, or any replacement page or pages on that service, for the purpose of displaying prime rates or base lending rates of major U.S.

 n Commercial Paper Dealer Agreement 4(2) Program n 29 







 “Bond Equivalent Yield” means a yield (expressed as a percentage) calculated in accordance with the following
formula: 
  

							
	Bond Equivalent Yield =	  	D x N	 		  	x 100
	  	 	  
	  	360 - (D x M)	 		  

 where “D” refers to the applicable per annum rate for Treasury Bills quoted on a bank

	3.	Final Maturity. The Stated Maturity Date for any Note will be the date so specified in the Supplement, which shall be no later than 397 days from the date of issuance. On its
Stated Maturity Date, or any date prior to the Stated Maturity Date on which the particular Note becomes due and payable by the declaration of acceleration, each such date being referred to as a Maturity Date, the principal amount of each Note,
together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, will be immediately due and payable. 

  

	4.	Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an “Event of Default” with respect to a Note: (i) default in any payment of

official), with respect to the whole or substantially the whole of the assets of the Issuer or the Guarantor or make any general assignment for the benefit of creditors. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the principal of each obligation
evidenced by such Note (together with interest accrued and unpaid thereon) shall become, without any notice or demand, immediately due and payable. 2 

  

	5.	Obligation Absolute. No provision of the Issuing and Paying Agency Agreement under which the Notes are issued shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on each Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. 

  

	6.	Supplement. Any term contained in the Supplement shall supercede any conflicting term contained herein. 

  

	2	Unlike single payment notes, where a default arises only at the stated maturity, interest-bearing notes with multiple payment dates should contain a default provision permitting

 Exhibit E 
 Form of
Guarantee 
 GUARANTEE 
 GUARANTEE,
dated as of [December     , 2008], of Transocean Ltd., a Swiss corporation (the “Guarantor”). 
 The Guarantor, for
value received, hereby agrees as follows for the benefit of the holders from time to time of the Notes hereinafter described: 
  

	1.	The Guarantor irrevocably guarantees payment in full, as and when the same becomes due and payable, of the principal of and interest, if any, on the promissory notes (the
“Notes”) issued by Transocean Inc., a company organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Guarantor (the “Issuer”), from time to time before, on or after the date hereof, pursuant to the
Issuing and Paying Agent Agreement, dated as of December 20, 2007, as the same may be amended, supplemented or modified from time to time, between the Issuer and Citibank, N.A. (the “Agreement”). 

  

	2.	The Guarantor’s obligations under this Guarantee shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity or enforceability of any provision of the Agreement or the Notes.


  

	3.	This Guarantee is a guaranty of the due and punctual payment (and not merely of collection) of the principal of and interest, if any, on the Notes by the Issuer and shall remain in
full force and effect until all such amounts have been validly, finally and irrevocably paid in full, and shall not be affected in any way by any circumstance or condition whatsoever, including without limitation (a) the absence of any action
to obtain such amounts from the Issuer, (b) any variation, extension, waiver, compromise or release of any or all of the obligations of the Issuer under the Agreement of the Notes or of any collateral security therefore or (c) any change
in the existence or structure of, or the bankruptcy or insolvency of, the Issuer or by any other circumstance (other than by complete, irrevocable payment), that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor or
surety. The Guarantor waives all requirements as to diligence, presentment, demand for payment, protest and notice of any kind with respect to the Agreement and the Notes. 

  

	4.	In the event of a default in payment of principal of or interest on any Notes, the holders of such Notes may institute legal proceedings directly against the Guarantor to enforce
this Guarantee without first proceeding against the Issuer. 

  

	5.	This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect or shall be reinstated (as the case may be) if at any time any payment by the Issuer of the principal of or interest, if any, on
the Notes, in whole or in part, is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the holder upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. 

  

	6.	This Guarantee shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. 

  

 n Commercial Paper Dealer Agreement 4(2) Program n 32 








	7.	(a) The Guarantor hereby irrevocably accepts and submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the United States federal courts located in the Borough of Manhattan and the courts of

 (b) The Guarantor hereby irrevocably designates, appoints and
empowers Transocean Offshore Deepwater Drilling, Inc., with offices at 4 Greenway Plaza, Houston, Texas, 77046, as its designee, appointee and agent to receive, accept and acknowledge for and on its behalf, and its properties, assets and revenues,

with legal procedures prescribed for such courts, with respect to any suit, action or proceeding in connection with or arising out of this Guarantee. If for any reason such designee, appointee and agent hereunder shall cease to be available to act

such agent shall for any reason prove to be ineffective or such agent shall accept or acknowledge such service) or by mailing copies thereof by registered or certified airmail, postage prepaid, to it at its address specified in or designated
pursuant to this Guarantee. The Guarantor agrees that the failure of any such designee, appointee and agent to give any notice of such service to it shall not impair or affect in any way the validity of such service or any judgment rendered in any
action or proceeding based thereon. Nothing herein shall in any way be deemed to limit the ability of the holders of any Notes to serve any such legal process, summons, notices and documents in any other manner permitted by applicable law or to
obtain jurisdiction over the undersigned or bring actions, suits or proceedings against the undersigned in such other jurisdictions, and in such other manner, as may be permitted by applicable law. The Guarantor hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the aforesaid actions, suits or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Guarantee brought in the courts listed in
Section 7(a) and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

amounts which, after deduction of any such withholding, stamp or other taxes or governmental charges of any nature, whatsoever imposed with respect to the payment of such additional amount, shall equal the amount withheld pursuant to clause (i).


  

	10.	The Guarantor agrees to indemnify each holder from time to time of Notes against any loss incurred by such holder as a result of any judgment or order being given or made for any
amount due hereunder or thereunder and such judgment or order being expressed and paid in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than United States dollars and as a result of any variation as between (i) the rate of exchange at
which the United States dollar amount is converted into the Judgment Currency for the purpose of such judgment or order, and (ii) the rate of exchange at which such holder is able to purchase United States dollars with the amount of Judgment
Currency actually received by such holder. The foregoing indemnity shall constitute a separate and independent obligation of the Guarantor and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any such judgment or order as aforesaid. The term
“rate of exchange” shall include any premiums and costs of exchange payable in connection with the purchase of, or conversion into, the relevant currency.
