FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, Debtor HEREBY PROMISES TO PAY to the order of Creditor each principal amount listed in Annex B with respect to the corresponding Account listed in Annex B (each, a “FX Note Amount”), subject to the terms and conditions hereof.  Debtor shall make a payment on a given FX Note Amount on or prior to each applicable Repayment Date in an amount equal to (A) any applicable Cash Amounts, plus (B) any applicable Deemed Amounts, minus (C) any applicable Cost Adjustments.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, Debtor HEREBY PROMISES TO PAY to the order of Creditor each principal amount listed in Annex C with respect to the corresponding Account listed in Annex C (each, a “Discounted Note Amount”), subject to the terms and conditions hereof.  In furtherance and not by limitation of Debtor’s obligations in respect of any USD Note Amount or any FX Note Amount, including the right to receive payments on a Repayment Date, Creditor has agreed to grant Debtor a discount in respect of the Accounts set forth on Annex C that have not been converted to Deemed Amounts or Cash Amounts prior to the date hereof in consideration for the payment of the Discounted Note Amounts as provided herein.  With respect to each Discounted Note Amount, on or prior to September 30, 2019, Debtor shall make a payment on each such Discounted Note Amount in an amount equal to (A) the principal amount of such Discounted Note Amount, minus (B) the total discount amount listed in Annex C with respect to such Discounted Note Amount (each, a “Discounted Note Amount Payment”); provided, however, (x) notwithstanding any other remedies available to Creditor either at law or equity, if Debtor fails to pay any Discounted Note Amount Payment by September 30, 2019, Debtor shall be obligated to pay to Creditor, in addition to such Discounted Note Amount Payment due, and without prejudice to the other obligations in this Promissory Note, interest on such Discounted Note Amount Payment at an interest rate of 2%, compounded monthly, accruing from October 1, 2019 through the date payment of such Discounted Note Amount is actually made and (y) Debtor shall not make a Discounted Note Amount Payment in respect of the Specified Algeria Amount and the Specified Poland Amount prior to September 30, 2019.  Each Discounted Note Amount Payment made pursuant to this paragraph shall reduce the principal amount of the related Discounted Note Amount to $0.

Promptly after the date hereof, and in any event prior to the making of a Discounted Note Amount Payment with respect to the Specified India Amount pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph, Creditor shall have the right to reclassify all or a portion of the Specified India 


3







Amount as a Target Repayment Amount with a Target Repayment Date of June 30, 2020, and Debtor shall reasonably cooperate to update Annex C and Annex D to reflect such reclassification, and Annex H shall be updated to include GE Oil & Gas India Private Limited with a Gain Recognition Tax Rate to be reasonably agreed by Creditor and Debtor.  This paragraph is referred to herein as the “Reclassification Paragraph”.
    
The aggregate amount of certain transition Tax adjustments agreed by the Parties with respect to payments received by Creditor prior to the date hereof has been allocated to Discounted Note Amounts in Annex C.


OTHER PROVISIONS


In furtherance and not by limitation of Debtor’s obligations in respect of any USD Note Amount or any FX Note Amount, including the right to receive payments on each Repayment Date, Annex D sets forth certain USD Note Amount Accounts and FX Note Amount Accounts and target repayment dates (each, a “Target Repayment Date”) with respect to such amounts under such Accounts (the “Target Repayment Amounts”) (to the extent that a Repayment Date has not occurred with respect to such amounts prior to the Target Repayment Date set forth in Annex D).  Debtor shall use its reasonable best efforts to convert such Target Repayment Amounts to Cash Amounts or Deemed Amounts so that the related USD Note Amounts and FX Note Amounts will be repaid by Debtor to Creditor by the applicable Target Repayment Dates set forth on Annex D.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the prior written consent of (or written waiver thereof by) Creditor, in no event shall any USD Note Amount or FX Note Amount that is a Target Repayment Amount be converted to a Cash Amount prior to the completion of the Transaction Structuring.  For the avoidance of doubt, if any Target Repayment Amount is not paid to Creditor by the applicable Target Repayment Date, the associated Account shall be paid in accordance with the provisions in respect of a USD Note Amount or an FX Note Amount, as applicable.  Debtor agrees and acknowledges that with respect to any Discounted Note Amount, Target Repayment Amount and Specified Angola Amount, Debtor shall cause its applicable Subsidiary that controls the related Account to repay such amount to Creditor prior to such Subsidiary, directly or indirectly, repatriating any other cash of such Subsidiary in the related jurisdiction that is not in an Account. 


In the event that Debtor reasonably determines that a conversion of a Target Repayment Amount that is held by an entity set forth in Annex H to a Cash Amount would result in gain recognition pursuant to section 301(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (a “Gain Recognition”), Debtor shall provide a written notice to Creditor no later than 30 days prior to the relevant Target Repayment Date (or with respect to a Specified Angola Amount, no later than 30 days prior to the relevant Repayment Date) (the “Gain Notice” and each such noticed amount, a “Managed Amount”).  The Gain Notice shall set forth the basis of such determination, the estimated amount of Gain Recognition and such other reasonable information and data necessary for Creditor to evaluate and confirm such determination and such estimate.  At Creditor’s request made within 10 days of receipt of the Gain Notice (a “Structuring Request”), the Steering Committee shall use reasonable best efforts, during the 80 days following the date of the Structuring Request (the “Structuring Period”), to identify structuring options for the conversion of the Managed Amount to a Deemed Amount or a Cash Amount that (i) reduce in whole or in part Gain Recognition and 


4







(ii) would not result in more than de minimis Implementation Costs to Debtor or its Affiliates relative to the amount of Gain Recognition that would result absent such structuring (any such Implementation Costs, “Non-De Minimis Implementation Costs”).  Debtor shall reasonably cooperate with Creditor in identifying such options, including providing Creditor with data and information as reasonably requested for such purposes.  Within 15 days following Creditor’s identification of a structuring option that meets the Gain Standard (as defined below), Debtor shall provide a written notice to Creditor (an “Implementation Costs Estimate”), either providing that the Implementation Costs with respect to such structural alternative are de minimis or setting forth the estimated amount of Implementation Costs, the basis of such determination and such other reasonable information and data necessary for Creditor to evaluate and confirm such determination and such estimate.  If, within the Structuring Period, Creditor identifies a structuring option with respect to such Managed Amount that (i) at a tax opinion comfort level of at least “more likely than not”, achieves such conversion of all or a portion of such Managed Amount without Gain Recognition (the “Gain Standard”), and (ii) either (x) does not result in Non-De Minimis Implementation Costs or (y) does result in Non-De Minimis Implementation Costs that Creditor agrees in writing to treat as Cost Adjustments following the receipt of an Implementation Costs Estimate (a “Qualifying Structuring Solution”), Debtor shall as promptly as is reasonably practicable (or consistent with the timing prescribed by such Qualifying Structuring Solution) implement such Qualifying Structuring Solution.  


If Creditor makes a Structuring Request with respect to a Managed Amount that is a Target Repayment Amount and the Target Repayment Date for such Target Repayment Amount is less than 90 days after the delivery of the Gain Notice, then the Target Repayment Date set forth on Annex D shall be modified to the date that is 90 days after the delivery of the Gain Notice. 


If between the date of the identification of a Qualifying Structuring Solution with respect to a Managed Amount and the execution of such Qualifying Structuring Solution, there is either (i) a change in applicable Law or (ii) a change in circumstances of the Debtor or its Affiliates that is outside the control of the Debtor, as a result of which (a) such Qualifying Structuring Solution does not satisfy the Gain Standard or (b) Debtor’s estimate of Implementation Costs increases by a material amount relative to the estimate set forth in the Implementation Costs Estimate, Debtor shall not be required to implement such Qualifying Structuring Solution and shall provide to Creditor a new Gain Notice or Implementation Costs Estimate, as applicable, in respect of such Managed Amount, which in addition to the required information shall identify such change and its impact on the results of the Qualifying Structuring Solution, and the applicable procedures set forth above shall apply, mutatis mutandis.  This paragraph and the two paragraphs that precede this paragraph are referred to herein as the “Partner Gain Paragraphs”. 


With respect to the Specified Angola Amounts, Debtor agrees that it shall (i) use reasonable best efforts to hire one (1) full-time equivalent employee or (ii) shall hire one (1) third-party consultant identified by Creditor (that is reasonably acceptable to Debtor), in either case, with the sole directive to achieve Dollar denominated remittances for the Specified Angola Amounts in compliance with foreign exchange regulations promulgated from time to time by the Angolan Ministry of Finance or Central Bank (or successor institutions) permitting remittances of Dollars for repatriation outside of Angola by auction or otherwise.  Debtor shall use its reasonable best 


5







efforts to provide to Creditor documentation sufficient to satisfy the repatriation requirements in accordance with applicable law for all Specified Angola Amounts.  Creditor shall reimburse Debtor in cash on a quarterly basis for any reasonable costs or expenses incurred by Debtor for the employment of the full-time equivalent employee or consultant as set forth above.


Debtor may make payment hereunder from any Account or any other available funds regardless of which Account triggered the repayment obligation.  Debtor shall provide Creditor a quarterly report detailing any Cash Amounts, Deemed Amounts, accrued interest, Interest Payments, Cost Adjustments, Increased Amounts and Decreased Amounts for each Account for the prior quarter and the remaining principal amount thereof.  With respect to each Account, unless otherwise agreed or instructed by Creditor, Debtor shall use its reasonable best efforts to mitigate and reduce the Cost Adjustments and the Additional Cost Adjustments upon any conversion to a Cash Amount (or a Deemed Amount, to the extent applicable).
Promptly following the date hereof, and until such time as all amounts under this Promissory Note have paid or discharged, the Parties shall establish a steering committee (the “Steering Committee”), which shall be comprised of up to four (4) representatives appointed by each Party, with the initial representatives of each Party designated on Annex F.  The Steering Committee shall meet monthly (or at such frequency as mutually agreed in writing by the Parties from time to time) in person or telephonically and: (i) oversee the status and accounting of any payments related to the Accounts under this Promissory Note, and (ii) monitor and manage any issues arising from the performance of the Parties under this Promissory Note.  Each Party shall have the right to replace its respective representatives on the Steering Committee with representatives of equal or similar seniority upon reasonable written notice to the other Party. The Steering Committee is a vehicle for discussion purposes solely of the matters referred to above; provided, however, that the Parties shall be required to take into account any instruction unanimously agreed by the Steering Committee in relation thereto.  Except as expressly set forth in this Promissory Note, the Steering Committee shall have no legal powers or obligations, and under no circumstances shall the Steering Committee be entitled to agree to variations or changes to this Promissory Note.  This paragraph is referred to herein as the “Steering Committee Paragraph”.
Debtor agrees that it shall use its reasonable best efforts to, or to cause its Affiliates to, liquidate, dissolve or wind-up, as appropriate and in a manner determined by Debtor, GE Oil & Gas International S.à.r.l, a société à responsabilité limitée organized under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, in accordance with applicable law (the “Transaction Structuring”) on or prior to September 30, 2019 (or, if the Transaction Structuring is not complete by September 30, 2019, then as promptly as practicable thereafter).  
Debtor shall maintain the Accounts and shall accurately record any amounts that are or become Cash Amounts, Deemed Amounts or any other amounts payable pursuant to this Promissory Note, including the Target Repayment Amounts and the Discounted Note Amounts.
