**<u>Exhibit 99.1</u>**

**Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation**

The following is a discussion of our results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 and our liquidity and capital resources. Unless the context indicates otherwise, the "Company," "we," "us," "our," and words of similar nature, all refer to Borr Drilling Limited and its consolidated subsidiaries. Unless otherwise indicated, all references to "USD" and "$" in this report are to U.S. dollars. You should read the following discussion and analysis together with the financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report. For additional information, including definitions of certain terms used herein, please see Item 5 of our annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was filed with the Commission on March 25, 2025.

**Overview**

We are an offshore shallow-water drilling contractor providing worldwide offshore drilling services to the oil and gas industry. Our primary business is the ownership, contracting and operation of jack-up rigs for operation in shallow-water areas (i.e., in water depths up to approximately 400 feet), including the provision of related equipment and work crews to conduct oil and gas drilling and workover operations for exploration and production customers. Our fleet consists of 24 premium jack-up rigs.

**Recent Developments**

*Liquidity Updates*

In March 2025, we cancelled 19,680,391 of issued shares, held in treasury, related to our share lending agreement which we had entered into in connection with our Convertible Notes (see Note 21 - Common Shares).

On July 3, 2025, we conducted a public offering by issuing 50,000,000 shares at a subscription price of $2.05 per share for total gross proceeds of $102.5 million. The offering was completed and the proceeds were received in two settlements. On July 7, 2025, we completed the first settlement of 30,000,000 shares. Preceding the second offering and in connection with it, on August 6, 2025, a Special General Meeting ("SGM") was held, and the Company's shareholders approved an increase in authorized share capital by 50,000,000 new common shares with a nominal value of $0.10 per share, increasing the authorized share capital from 315,000,000 shares to 365,000,000 shares. Subsequently on August 7, 2025, we completed the second and final settlement of the remaining 20,000,000 shares, and the Company's issued share capital was increased by 50,000,000 new common shares with a nominal value of $0.10 per share.

*Amendment to Super Senior Credit Facility Agreement*

In November 2023, the Company entered into a $180.0 million Super Senior Revolving Facility Agreement ("SSRCF"), comprised of a $150.0 million Revolving Credit Facility and a $30.0 million Guarantee Facility (which is documented as an ancillary facility with DNB Bank ASA). In August 2024, the Company increased the size of the $30.0 million Guarantee Facility to $45.0 million, increasing the aggregate Super Senior Revolving Credit Facility commitments to $195.0 million. On September 25, 2025, the Company entered into an amendment agreement to amend and restate the SSRCF ("Amended SSRCF"), and effective from September 26, 2025, the Amended SSRCF is comprised of a $200.0 million super-senior Revolving Credit Facility with the $45.0 million Guarantee Facility ceasing to be an ancillary facility for the purpose of the Amended SSRCF.

The Amended SSCRF remains secured on a super-senior basis by the same security that secures the Notes. The $45 million Guarantee Facility and the new $34.0 million Senior Secured Revolving Facility Agreement are both secured on a senior pari passu basis by the same security that secures the Notes and the Amended SSRCF (see further description below). The Amended SSRCF was undrawn as at September 30, 2025.

*New Revolving Credit Facility*

On September 25, 2025, the Company and Borr IHC Limited (as borrowers and guarantors) entered into a $34.0 million Senior Secured Revolving Facility Agreement with, among others, Goldman Sachs Bank USA and Citibank N.A., London Branch (as original lenders), Wilmington Trust (London) Limited (as facility agent) and Wilmington Trust (London) Limited (as security agent), comprising of a $34.0 million Revolving Credit Facility (the "SRCF").

The SCRF, alongside the $45.0 million Guarantee Facility, is secured on a senior pari passu basis by the same security that secures the Notes and the Amended SSRCF. The SRCF was undrawn as at September 30, 2025.

*Grant of Restricted Share Units and Performance Share Units* 

In September 2025, the Company granted certain employees of the Company ("grantees") an aggregate of 1,381,443 restricted share units ("RSUs") and 1,333,333 performance share units ("PSUs"). The RSUs vest over a three-year period commencing on September 1, 2026 and are conditional on the grantee remaining in continuous employment with the Company. The PSUs vest in full on September 1, 2028, and are conditional on a performance criteria linked to the Company's total shareholder return performance in comparison to a certain set of industry peers being met, in addition to the grantee remaining in continuous employment with the Company.

*Operational and Contract Updates*

In March 2025, we commenced our first contract for the Vali after taking delivery of the rig in August 2024.

------

In May 2025, the jack-up rigs "Galar", "Grid" and "Gersemi", which were previously on temporary suspension in Mexico, re-commenced operations.

In June 2025, we received a temporary suspension notice for the jack-up rig "Odin" in Mexico which was subsequently terminated. Following this, the Company entered into a contract for the rig with an independent oil company in Mexico for a combined accommodation and drilling program, which commenced in August 2025.

In October 2025, the Company announced that it terminated two of its drilling contracts for the jack-up rigs "Odin" and "Hild", which had firm commitments until November 2025 and March 2026, respectively, following the recent implementation of international sanctions affecting a counterparty.

*Management Updates*

On July 2, 2025, the Company announced that pursuant to a multi-year succession planning process, the Company's Board of Directors has reached a unanimous decision to appoint Chief Commercial Officer Bruno Morand as successor to Chief Executive Officer Patrick Schorn, effective September 1, 2025. At the time of the transition, Mr. Schorn became the Executive Chair of the Company's Board of Directors, while the previous Chairman, Tor Olav Trøim, continued to serve as a Director of the Board, and existing Director, Daniel Rabun, became Lead Independent Director.

On August 6, 2025, Thiago Mordehachvili, Founder and Chief Investment Officer of Granular Capital Ltd., a significant shareholder of the Company, was appointed to the Board as a Director.

---

**Nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared with the nine months ended September 30, 2024**

**Net income:** Net income decreased by $9.8 million to $46.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $55.8 million in the same period in 2024. The decrease is a result of a decrease in gain on disposals, an increase in rig operating and maintenance expenses, an increase in depreciation of non-current assets, a loss from equity method investments (compared to income in the comparative period) and an increase in total financial expenses, net, offset by an increase in total operating revenues, a decrease in general and administrative expenses and a decrease in income tax expense, as discussed below.

**Total operating revenues:** Total operating revenues increased by $13.9 million to $761.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $747.5 million for the same period in 2024.

The overall increase is comprised of an increase in dayrate revenue of $58.3 million, which includes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $66.5 million attributable to an increase in average dayrates;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $33.3 million attributable to an increase in the number of rigs in operation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $3.0 million attributable to one additional rig earning dayrate revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to earning bareboat revenue and management contract revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2024; offset by

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $24.5 million decrease related to other revenue, which is primarily comprised of amortization of deferred mobilization and demobilization revenue, and reimbursable revenue; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $20.0 million decrease related to a decrease in the number of operating days for the rigs that were already in operation during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Total operating revenue also includes an increase in management contract revenue of $1.3 million which is attributable to the execution of new contract management agreements during the three months ended June 30, 2024, pursuant to which we provided rig operational and maintenance

------

support services for three of our rigs which are on bareboat contracts with an external party for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and for two of our rigs for the three months ended September 30, 2025.

These increases were offset by a $35.0 million decrease in related party revenue which is driven by the termination of the bareboat charter agreements held with Perfomex in 2024. Effective the same dates as the termination of such agreements, new bareboat charter agreements were entered into with an unrelated party for the five rigs, resulting in the recognition of bareboat charter revenue instead of related party revenue.

These increases were also offset by a $10.7 million decrease in bareboat charter revenue as a result of four of the five rigs mentioned above being on varying periods of temporary suspension during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and one rig earning dayrate revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2025, resulting in a lower number of operating days in the period compared to the same period in 2024. This overall decrease was offset by an increase in bareboat revenue as a result of one additional rig earning bareboat revenue in Brazil, during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

**Gain on disposal:** Gain on disposal was $0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $0.6 million for the same period in 2024. The gain on disposal for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 relate to the sale of scrap assets.

**Rig operating and maintenance expenses:** Rig operating and maintenance expenses increased by $18.1 million to $360.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $342.4 million for the same period in 2024. The increase is partially a result of the execution of new rig management contracts during the three months ended June 30, 2024 pursuant to which we provide rig operational and maintenance support services for three of our rigs which are on bareboat contracts with an external party. The expenses associated with these three rigs were previously recognized in our equity method investment, Perfomex. The overall increase is also a result of the temporary suspension of four of our rigs resulting in the recognition of rig operating and maintenance expenses on two of our rigs, which, prior to the suspension, were recognized in our equity method investments, Perfomex. In addition, the Vali (delivered August 2024) started its first contract in March 2025, contributing to the increase in rig operating and maintenance expenses. These increases in rig operating and maintenance expenses were offset by a decrease in rig operating and maintenance expenses resulting from the decrease in the number of operating days, in addition to one of our rigs entering into a bareboat contract from April 2025 compared to a drilling contract for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and warm stacked for the three months ended September 30, 2024, resulting in lower operating and maintenance expenses for this rig.

**Depreciation of non-current assets:** Depreciation of non-current assets increased by $14.7 million to $110.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $95.5 million for the same period in 2024. The increase is primarily a result of an increase of $7.4 million associated with the increase in the asset base primarily due to the transfer of Vali and Var from newbuildings to jack-up rigs and an increase of $7.3 million related to capital expenditures and long-term maintenance projects.

**General and administrative expenses:** General and administrative expenses decreased by $0.8 million to $36.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $37.0 million for the same period in 2024. The decrease is primarily comprised of a $1.2 million decrease in personnel and associated personnel tax expense as well as a $1.6 million decrease in various individually insignificant movements associated with general corporate activities, offset by a $2.0 million increase in share-based compensation expense associated with our employee equity compensation plan.

**(Loss) / income from equity method investments:** Income from equity method investments decreased by $3.6 million to a loss from equity method investments of $2.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to income from equity method investments of $1.3 million for the same period in 2024. The decrease is primarily a result of a $8.9 million increase in income tax expense and a $1.5 million increase related to financing fees, partially offset by a $8.1 million increase in foreign exchange gains. The increase in income tax expenses of $8.9 million is partially due to a change in operations and also a result of the fact that during Q1 2024, the equity method investment recognized certain deferred costs under the construction tax regime resulting in an income tax credit, which has subsequently been unwound due to the change in our equity method investments operating structure. As such, no such benefit was recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

**Total financial expenses, net:** Total financial expenses, net, increased by $7.6 million to $177.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $170.1 million for the same period in 2024. The increase is principally due to an increase of $17.2 million in interest expense, primarily related to an increase in the principal amount of debt outstanding, an increase of $4.4 million related to financing fees and a $3.2 million decrease in interest income. These factors contributing to the increase to total financial expenses, net, were offset by a $15.4 million decrease in yard cost cover expense (final rigs delivered in 2024), a $2.3 million decrease in relation to the premium paid on Convertible Bonds which the Company repurchased in March 2024 and a $0.8 million decrease in net foreign exchange losses, as well as various individually insignificant movements associated with financing activities.

**Income tax expense:** Income tax expense decreased by $19.9 million to $28.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $48.6 million for the same period in 2024. The overall decrease is principally due to a $7.5 million decrease in corporate income tax expense, a $5.7 million one-off recognition of deferred tax benefit in Q2 2025 in one of our jurisdictions, and a $6.8 million decrease in the utilization of deferred tax assets.

**Adjusted EBITDA:** Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $3.8 million to $364.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $368.7 million for the same period in 2024. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. We present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe this measure increases comparability of underlying business performance from period to period and may be used to more easily compare our performance to other companies. Set forth below is how we calculate Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income for the periods presented. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures".

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

Historically, we have met our liquidity needs principally from cash generated from operations, offerings of equity, convertible bonds and secured bonds, available funds under our secured loan facilities and the shipyard delivery financing arrangements related to our newbuild rigs and revolving credit facilities and sale of non-core assets.

As at September 30, 2025, we had $227.8 million in cash and cash equivalents and $1.0 million in restricted cash.

As at September 30, 2025, our shares were listed on the NYSE. Previously, our shares were listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange ("OSE"), however, we filed for a delisting of our shares on the OSE in 2024. The last day of trading of the Company's common shares on the OSE was December 30, 2024.

Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $128.8 million to $217.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $88.3 million for the same period in 2024, primarily due to working capital movements, which includes approximately $122.8 million in cash settlements from our Mexico operations, and an increase in average dayrates and number of rigs in operation and associated cash receipts from contract drilling services, partially offset by the cash expenditures for contract drilling services and the timing of working capital movements.

Net cash used in investing activities of $72.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 is comprised of $72.3 million in additions to jack-up rigs, primarily as a result of activation costs, drilling equipment and long-term maintenance costs and $0.1 million in purchases of property, plant and equipment.

Net cash used in investing activities of $219.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 is comprised of $36.1 million in additions to jack-up rigs, primarily as a result of special periodic survey ("SPS") and long term maintenance costs and $183.0 million in additions to newbuildings, primarily as a result of the $159.9 million final installment payment for the "Vali" as well as $23.1 million in activation costs relating to the "Vali" and the "Var" and $0.4 million in purchases of property, plant and equipment.

Net cash provided by financing activities of $21.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 is comprised of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $96.9 million net proceeds from our public equity offering which was received in two settlements in July and August 2025;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $0.3 million proceeds from the exercise of share options; offset by

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $70.7 million in repayments of debt including $53.0 million related to our Senior Secured Notes due in 2028 (2028 Notes) and $17.7 million related to our Senior Secured Notes due in 2030 (2030 Notes);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $4.7 million in cash distributions to shareholders; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $0.2 million in purchases of own shares.

Net cash provided by financing activities of $215.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 is comprised of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $208.3 million net proceeds from our additional Senior Secured Notes due in 2028 issued in March 2024;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $154.4 million net proceeds from our additional Senior Secured Notes due in 2028 issued in August 2024;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $85.0 million net proceeds from the temporary drawdown of our RCF due to the timing between the delivery of the jack-up rig "Vali" and the receipt of the proceeds from our Further Additional 2028 Notes issued in August 2024;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$1.9 million proceeds from the exercise of share options; offset by

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $162.8 million in repayments of debt including $85.0 million related to our RCF, $54.1 million related to our Senior Secured Notes due in 2028, $13.1 million related to our Senior Secured Notes due in 2030 and $10.6 million associated with the repurchase of our Convertible Bonds in March 2024; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $71.6 million in cash distributions to shareholders.

Cash interest paid was $110.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and $97.3 million for the same period in 2024 and is included in net cash used in operating activities.

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

In addition to disclosing financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP, this report includes the non-GAAP financial measure, Adjusted EBITDA. We believe that this non-GAAP financial measure provides useful supplemental information about the financial performance of our business, enables comparison of financial results between periods where certain items may vary independent of business performance, and allows for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in operating our business and measuring our performance.

The non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP measures are not uniformly defined by all companies and may not be comparable with similarly titled measures and disclosures used by other companies.

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Non-GAAP Measure** | **Closest Equivalent to GAAP Measure** | **Definition** | **Rationale for Presentation of this non-GAAP Measure** |
| Adjusted EBITDA | Net income attributable to shareholders of Borr Drilling Limited | Net income adjusted for: depreciation of non-current assets; (loss) / income from equity method investments; total financial expenses, net; and income tax expense. | Increases the comparability of total business performance from period to period and against the performance of other companies by excluding the results of our equity investments and removing the impact of depreciation, financing and tax items. |

---

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA improves the comparability of period-to-period results and is representative of our underlying performance, although Adjusted EBITDA has significant limitations, including not reflecting our cash requirements for capital or deferred costs, rig reactivation costs, newbuild rig activation costs, contractual commitments, taxes, working capital or debt service. Non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies and have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our operating results as reported under U.S. GAAP.

We are listed on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the ticker "BORR" and we were listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange ("OSE") until December 30, 2024. Borr Drilling Limited is an international offshore drilling contractor providing services to the oil and gas industry. Our primary business is the ownership, contracting and operation of modern jack-up drilling rigs for operations in shallow-water areas (i.e., in water depths up to approximately 400 feet), including the provision of related equipment and work crews to conduct drilling of oil and gas wells and workover operations for exploration and production customers. As of September 30, 2025, we had 24 premium jack-up rigs.

As used herein, and unless otherwise required by the context, the terms "Company," "Borr", "we," "Group," "our" and words of similar nature refer to Borr Drilling Limited and its consolidated companies. The use herein of such terms as "group", "organization", "we", "us", "our" and "its", or references to specific entities, is not intended to be a precise description of corporate relationships.

**Note 2 - Basis of Preparation and Accounting Policies**

*Basis of preparation*

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the disclosures required under U.S. GAAP in the annual consolidated financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with our audited annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, which are included in our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 25, 2025. The Consolidated Balance Sheet data as of December 31, 2024 was derived from our audited annual financial statements. The amounts are presented in millions of United States dollars ("U.S. dollar" or "$"), unless otherwise stated. The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and in management's opinion, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements are reflected in the interim periods presented.

Certain immaterial prior period amounts in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows have been reclassified.

*Significant accounting policies*

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 are consistent with those followed in preparation of our annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, except for the factored receivables accounting policy. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the factored receivables accounting policy was included as a result of the Company entering into a factoring arrangement under which certain trade accounts receivable are sold to a third-party financial institution without recourse or repurchase obligations.

**Factored Receivables**

The Company has a factoring arrangement, pursuant to which certain receivables are sold to a third-party financial institution without recourse or repurchase obligations in exchange for cash. Transactions under the factoring arrangement are accounted for as sales under Accounting Standards Codifications 860, Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets, with the sold receivables removed from the Company's balance sheet.

*Use of estimates*

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires that management make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

**Note 3 - Recently Issued Accounting Standards**

*Adoption of new accounting standards*

In August 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2023-05 Business Combinations—Joint Venture Formations (Subtopic 805-60): Recognition and Initial Measurement. The amendments address the accounting for contributions made to a joint venture, upon formation, in a joint venture's separate financial statements. The objectives of the amendments are to: (1) provide decision-useful information to investors and other allocators of capital (collectively, investors) in a joint venture's financial statements; and (2) reduce diversity in practice. To reduce diversity in practice and provide decision-useful information to a joint venture's investors, the Board decided to require that a joint venture apply a new basis of accounting upon formation, resulting in a joint venture, upon formation, being required to recognize and initially measure its assets and liabilities at fair value (with exceptions to fair value measurement that are consistent with the business combinations guidance). These amendments are effective for the Company from January 1, 2025. There was no impact resulting from these amendments on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements or related disclosures as presented in this interim set of accounts for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The amendments require that public business entities on an annual basis (1) disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and (2) provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold (if the effect of those reconciling items is equal to or greater than 5 percent of the amount computed by multiplying pretax income (or loss) by the applicable statutory income tax rate). A public business entity is required to provide an explanation, if not otherwise evident, of the individual reconciling items disclosed, such as the nature, effect, and underlying

------

causes of the reconciling items and the judgment used in categorizing the reconciling items. The other amendments improve the effectiveness and comparability of disclosures by (1) adding disclosures of pretax income (or loss) and income tax expense (or benefit) to be consistent with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Regulation S-X 210.4-08(h), Rules of General Application—General Notes to Financial Statements: Income Tax Expense, and (2) removing disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial or relevant. These amendments are effective for the Company from January 1, 2025 and applicable for our disclosure in our 2025 annual report. There was no impact resulting from these amendments on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements or related disclosures as presented in this interim set of accounts for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

*Accounting pronouncements that have been issued but not yet adopted*

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Standard** | **Description** | **Date of Adoption** | **Effect on our Consolidated Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters** |
| *ASU 2024-03: Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)* | The amendments in this Update require disclosure, in the notes to financial statements of specified information about certain costs and expenses. The amendments require that at each interim and annual reporting period an entity:<br>(1) discloses the amounts of (a) purchases of inventory, (b) employee compensation, (c) depreciation, (d) intangible asset amortization, and (e) depreciation, depletion, and amortization recognized as part of oil- and gas-producing activities (DD&A) (or other amounts of depletion expense) included in each relevant expense caption; <br>(2) includes certain amounts that are already required to be disclosed under current generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the same disclosure as the other disaggregation requirements;<br>(3) discloses a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively; and<br>(4) discloses the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, an entity's definition of selling expenses.<br>An entity is not precluded from providing additional voluntary disclosures that may provide investors with additional decision-useful information. | January 1, 2027 | Impact to our related disclosures expected |
| *ASU 2024-04: Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20)* | The amendments in this Update clarify the requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments should be accounted for as an induced conversion. Under the amendments, to account for a settlement of a convertible debt instrument as an induced conversion, an inducement offer is required to provide the debt holder with, at a minimum, the consideration (in form and amount) issuable under the conversion privileges provided in the terms of the instrument. An entity should assess whether this criterion is satisfied as of the date the inducement offer is accepted by the holder. If, when applying this criterion, the convertible debt instrument had been exchanged or modified (without being deemed substantially different) within the one year period leading up to the offer acceptance date, an entity should compare the terms provided in the inducement offer with the terms that existed one year before the offer acceptance date. The amendments do not change the other criteria that are required to be satisfied to account for a settlement transaction as an induced conversion. The amendments in this Update also make additional clarifications to assist stakeholders in applying the guidance. | January 1, 2026 | Under evaluation |
| *ASU 2025-05: Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326)* | The amendments in this Update provide (1) all entities with a practical expedient and (2) entities other than public business entities with an accounting policy election when estimating expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from transactions accounted for under Topic 606, as follows: <br>(1) Practical expedient. In developing reasonable and supportable forecasts as part of estimating expected credit losses, all entities may elect a practical expedient that assumes that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset. <br>(2) Accounting policy election. An entity other than a public business entity that elects the practical expedient is permitted to make an accounting policy election to consider collection activity after the balance sheet date when estimating expected credit losses. | January 1, 2026 | Under evaluation |

---

As of November 5, 2025, the FASB have issued further updates not included above. We do not currently expect any of these updates to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures either on transition or in future periods.

**Note 4 - Segment Information**

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, we had a single reportable segment. We view our operations and manage our business as a single operating segment, using Operating income as presented in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The significant segment expense categories regularly provided to our CODM, our Board of Directors, include Rig operating and maintenance expenses and our General and administrative expenses, as presented in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Other segment items included in our Operating income include Gain on disposals and Depreciation of non-current assets.

<sup>(1)</sup> Other revenue represents lump sum revenue associated with contract preparation and mobilization and is recognized ratably over the initial firm term of the associated contract in "Dayrate revenue" in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

*Contract Costs*

Deferred mobilization and contract preparation costs relate to costs incurred to prepare a rig for contract and delivery or to mobilize a rig to the drilling location. We defer pre-operating costs, such as contract preparation and mobilization costs, and recognize such costs on a straight-line basis, over the estimated firm period of the drilling contract. Costs incurred for the demobilization of rigs at contract completion are recognized as incurred during the demobilization period.

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **September 30, 2025** | **December 31, 2024** |
| *(In $ millions)* |  |  |
| Current deferred mobilization and contract preparation costs | 31.2 | 40.6 |
| Non-current deferred mobilization and contract preparation costs <sup>(1)</sup> | 33.6 | 39.5 |
| **Total deferred mobilization and contract preparation asset** | **64.8** | **80.1** |

---

<sup>(1)</sup> Non-current deferred mobilization and contract preparation costs are included in "Other non-current assets" in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (see Note 14 - Other Non-Current Assets).

Deferred mobilization and contract preparation costs decreased by $15.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 to $64.8 million, from $80.1 million as of December 31, 2024 as a result of additional deferred costs of $19.8 million primarily relating to the contract preparations of the rigs "Arabia I", "Arabia II", "Thor" and "Gerd", offset by amortization of $35.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

*Transfers of Financial Assets*

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company entered into a factoring arrangement under which certain trade accounts receivable were sold to a third-party financial institution without recourse or repurchase obligations. As part of the agreement, the Company has ongoing obligations to notify the financial institution of certain business or contractual modifications, to assign guarantees including the Parent Company Guarantee (a guarantee from the parent of the underlying customer) to the financial institution, and obtain consents which together do not preclude effective control being transferred. The transfers met the conditions for sale accounting under ASC 860, Transfers and Servicing, and, accordingly, the receivables were derecognized from our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets upon transfer.

The Company received cash proceeds of $14.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 (nil during the nine months ended September 30, 2024) and the carrying amount of accounts receivable derecognized net of pass-through fees during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $14.6 million (nil during the nine months ended September 30, 2024). The Company did not recognize any gain or loss on sale of receivables and we do not retain any beneficial interest or servicing responsibilities associated with the receivables sold. In connection with the arrangement, the Company obtained a guarantee from the parent company of the underlying customer which has been reassigned to the financial institution transferring all rights.

Cash proceeds from the sale of receivables are classified as operating cash flows in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

*Parent Company Guarantee*

In connection with the factoring arrangement, the Company obtained a parent company guarantee from the parent of the underlying customer for up to $42.8 million. This guarantee was reassigned to the financial institution as part of the transaction, and the Company no longer retains any rights, obligations, or servicing responsibilities under the guarantee. The guarantee is subject to ASC 460 disclosure requirements but is not recognized as a liability, as it was received and subsequently transferred.

**Note 6 - Equity Method Investments**

We hold a 51% equity ownership interest in Perfomex and Perfomex II, two Mexico-based joint ventures. We previously provided five jack-up rigs on bareboat charters to these joint ventures. These joint ventures previously provided dayrate drilling services to Opex Perforadora S.A. de C.V. ("Opex") and Perforadora Profesional AKAL I, SA de CV ("Akal"), which both provide integrated well services to Petróleos Mexicanos ("Pemex"). Opex and Akal are wholly owned by Operadora Productora y Exploradora Mexicana, S.A. de C.V. ("Operadora"), a fully owned subsidiary of Proyectos Globales de Energia y Servicos CME, S.A. DE C.V. ("CME"). CME owns the remaining 49% interest in our joint ventures Perfomex and Perfomex II.

------

Effective January 1, 2024, Perfomex and Opex agreed to terminate the Drilling and Technical Services Agreements ("DTSAs") for the jack-up rigs "Grid" and "Gersemi" which triggered a termination fee payable by Opex to Perfomex of $14.0 million, or $7.0 million per Borr jack-up rig operated by Perfomex. Effective April 1, 2024, Perfomex and Opex agreed to terminate the DTSAs for the jack-up rigs "Galar", "Odin" and "Njord" which triggered a further termination fee payable by Opex to Perfomex of $21.0 million, or $7.0 million per Borr jack-up rig. The associated bareboat charter agreements between Perfomex and the Company were also terminated. Effective the same dates as the termination dates referenced above, the Company entered into new fixed rate bareboat charter agreements for the jack-up rigs "Grid", "Gersemi", "Galar", "Odin" and "Njord" with Irish Energy Drilling Assets, DAC ("Irco"). The new bareboat charter agreements were to remain in effect until December 31, 2025.

In addition, effective January 1, 2024, Perfomex entered into new Drilling, Operation and Management Agreements ("DO&M Agreements") with Perforadora Ircomex, S.A. DE C.V. ("Ircomex") to provide drilling, operations and management services for the Borr jack-up rigs "Grid" and "Gersemi", plus third-party owned jack-up rigs "CME I" and "CME II". Effective April 1, 2024, DO&M Agreements were also entered into by Borr Drilling Contracting S. de R.L. de C.V., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, with Ircomex, to provide drilling, operations and management services for the Borr jack-up rigs "Galar", "Odin" and "Njord". These DO&M Agreements are based on a cost-plus pricing model and remain in effect until December 31, 2025.

Irco and Ircomex will continue to provide the jack-up rigs "Grid", "Gersemi", "Galar", "Odin", and "Njord" and accompanying operational services to Opex, for Opex to service its integrated well services contract with Pemex.

Effective January 8, 2025, the Company received temporary suspension notices under the bareboat charter agreements held with Irco for the jack-up rigs "Grid, "Gersemi" and "Galar", following partial suspensions of performance under the integrated well services contract held between Opex and Pemex. During the suspension period, operating expenses incurred for these jack-up rigs were recharged to the Company. All three of these jack-up rigs recommenced operations during the three months ended September 30, 2025, and their respective bareboat charter agreements and DO&M Agreements were extended by the duration of their suspension periods.

Effective August 22, 2025, Irco and Ircomex terminated the Charter Agreement and DO&M Agreement with the Company for the jack-up rig "Odin", following partial termination of the integrated well services contract held between Opex and Pemex.

**Note 9 - Taxation**

Borr Drilling Limited is a Bermuda company which is not currently required to pay taxes in Bermuda on ordinary income or capital gains under a tax exemption granted by the Minister of Finance in Bermuda until March 31, 2035. However, the Bermuda Corporate Income Tax Act was enacted on December 27, 2023 and applies from January 1, 2025 to Bermuda entities that are part of a multinational group with annual revenues of at least EUR 750 million in two of the previous four fiscal years. The Corporate Income Tax Act overrides previous tax exemptions and applies a 15% tax rate to net taxable income of Bermuda entities. We expect to be in scope of the tax in 2026, at the same time as becoming subject to the 15% global minimum tax introduced by the Global Anti-Base Erosion Model Rules (Pillar Two) initiative of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). We operate through various subsidiaries, affiliates and branches in numerous countries throughout the world and are subject to tax laws, policies, treaties and regulations, as well as the interpretation or enforcement thereof, in jurisdictions in which we or any of our subsidiaries, affiliates and branches operate, were incorporated, or are otherwise considered to have a tax presence. Our income tax expense is based upon our interpretation of the tax laws in effect in various countries at the time that the expense was incurred.

Total pre-tax income / (loss) is comprised of the following by jurisdiction:

---

| **Total** | **39.1** | **25.2** | **74.7** | **104.4** |

---

The change in the effective tax rate from period to period is primarily attributable to changes in the profitability or loss mix of our operations in various jurisdictions. As our operations continually change among numerous jurisdictions and methods of taxation in these jurisdictions vary greatly, there is minimal direct correlation between the income tax provision or benefit and income or loss before taxes. We used a discrete effective tax rate method to calculate income taxes.

Income tax (expense) / benefit is comprised of the following:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Three months ended September 30, 2025** | **Three months ended September 30, 2024** | **Nine months ended September 30, 2025** | **Nine months ended September 30, 2024** |

is more likely than not that the benefit from the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The amount of deferred tax assets considered realizable could increase or decrease in the near term if estimates of future taxable income change.

In response to the Organization for Economic Co-Operation and Development (OECD) Base Erosion and Profit Shifting initiative, a 15% worldwide minimum tax implemented on a country-by-country basis has been introduced with many jurisdictions committed to a January 1, 2024, effective date. There remain a number of uncertainties around the final Pillar 2 model rules, and we are closely monitoring developments on this initiative.

Additionally, on December 27, 2023, Bermuda enacted the Corporate Income Tax Act which imposes a 15% tax on Bermuda businesses that are part of multinational enterprise (MNE) groups. The effective date of the income tax is for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2025. We are actively monitoring the evolving developments of these regulations and evaluating their potential impact on future periods. At present, we expect that they will not have a material impact on our financial results in the short term.

**Note 10 - Income Per Share**

The computation of basic income per share ("EPS") is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. In the computation of the diluted EPS, the dilutive impact of the Company's stock options, performance units and restricted units is calculated using the "treasury stock" guidelines and the dilutive impact of the Company's convertible securities is calculated using the "if converted" method.

The weighted average number of shares outstanding includes 1,700,000 and 12,331,900 shares as of September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024 shares, respectively, which have been issued as part of a share lending arrangement relating to the Company's issuance of $250.0 million Convertible Bonds in 2023 (see Note 21 - Common Shares).

The following potential share issuances effects of Convertible Bonds, share options, RSUs and performance units have been excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS for each of the periods presented because the effects were anti-dilutive.

*Rental income*

Effective January 1, 2024, as part of a restructuring of our operations under our joint venture in Mexico, the Company entered into new fixed external bareboat charter agreements for two jack-up rigs and effective April 1, 2024 we entered into further fixed external bareboat charter agreements for three jack-up rigs, which continue to service Opex's contract with Pemex (see Note 6 - Equity Method Investments). In the three months ended June 30, 2025, the contracts for the three of the rigs which had been previously suspended in 2025, resumed and were extended by the duration of their suspension period. Future revenues under these contracts are based on a blended rate, in line with our revenue recognition policy, as the contract includes daily rates that change over the firm term of the contract.

Further, in June 2025, we received a temporary suspension notice for the jack-up rig "Odin" in Mexico and subsequently the contract was terminated and thus excluded from the total minimum contractual future revenues below. In addition, during the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company entered into a bareboat agreement for the Arabia I, with a third-party. The contract has a four-year minimum term.

Revenues from operating leases for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 of $26.7 million and $54.6 million and three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 of $27.4 million and $65.3 million have been recognized on a straight-line basis as "Bareboat charter revenue" in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

*Super Senior Revolving Credit Facility Agreement*

------

In November 2023, the Company entered into a $180.0 million Super Senior Revolving Facility Agreement ("SSRCF"), comprised of a $150.0 million Revolving Credit Facility and a $30.0 million Guarantee Facility (which is documented as an ancillary facility with DNB Bank ASA). In August 2024, the Company increased the size of the $30.0 million Guarantee Facility to $45.0 million, increasing the aggregate Super Senior Revolving Credit Facility commitments to $195.0 million. On September 25, 2025, the Company entered into an amendment agreement to amend and restate the SSRCF (the "Amended SSRCF"), and effective from September 26, 2025, the Super Senior Revolving Credit Facility Agreement is comprised of a $200.0 million Revolving Credit Facility with the $45.0 million Guarantee Facility ceasing to be an ancillary facility for the purpose of the Amended SSRCF.

Borrowings under the Amended SSCRF remain available to be used for general corporate and/or working capital purposes, provided that any amounts borrowed may not be used to fund any dividend or other distribution to any direct or indirect shareholder(s) of the Company.

The Amended SSCRF remains secured on a super-senior basis by the same security that secures the Notes. The $45 million Guarantee Facility and the new $34.0 million Senior Secured Revolving Facility Agreement are both secured on a senior parri passu basis by the same security that secures the Notes and the Amended SSRCF).

The interest rate on loans advanced under the Amended SSRCF is equal to Term SOFR (subject to a zero floor) plus the applicable margin. The margin is adjusted in accordance with a margin ratchet.

The Amended SSRCF retains certain incurrence covenants which are substantially the same as those that are contained in the Indenture for the Notes, customary affirmative and negative covenants, as well as financial covenants which require the Company to comply subject (where applicable) to certain conditions, with a maximum consolidated net leverage ratio, a minimum liquidity ratio, a minimum equity ratio, a minimum collateral ratio (based on the market value of certain of our Rigs) and a minimum interest cover ratio on particular test dates and during particular periods. The Amended SSRCF contains customary cure rights for certain of the financial covenants.

A commitment fee is payable to each lender under the Amended SSCRF on the aggregate undrawn and uncancelled amount of that lender's available commitments from November 7, 2023 until the last day of the availability period for the facility at the rate of 40% of the then applicable margin.

The termination date for the Amended SSRCF will be the earlier of the date falling (i) 54 months after the Closing Date (as defined in the Amended SSRCF); and (ii) six months prior to the final maturity of the Notes.

*New Senior Secured Revolving Facility Agreement*

On September 25, 2025, the Company and Borr IHC Limited (as borrowers and guarantors) entered into a $34.0 million Senior Secured Revolving Facility Agreement with, among others, Goldman Sachs Bank USA and Citibank N.A., London Branch (as original lenders), Wilmington Trust (London) Limited (as facility agent) and Wilmington Trust (London) Limited (as security agent), comprising of a $34.0 million Revolving Credit Facility (the "SRCF").

Borrowings under the SRCF are available to be used for general corporate and/or working capital purposes, provided that any amounts borrowed may not be used to fund any dividend or other distribution to any direct or indirect shareholder(s) of the Company.

The SCRF, alongside the $45.0 million Guarantee Facility, is secured on a senior pari passu basis by the same security that secures the Notes and the Amended SSRCF.

The interest rate on loans advanced under the SRCF is equal to Term SOFR (subject to zero floor) plus a margin of 5% per annum.

The SRCF contains certain incurrence covenants which are substantially the same as those that are contained in the Amended SSRCF and the Indenture for the Notes, customary affirmative and negative covenants, as well as financial covenants which require the Company to comply subject (where applicable) to certain conditions, with a maximum consolidated net leverage ratio, a minimum liquidity ratio, a minimum equity ratio, a minimum collateral ratio (based on the market value of certain of our Rigs) and a minimum interest cover ratio on particular test dates and during particular periods. The SRCF contains customary cure rights for certain of the financial covenants.

A commitment fee is payable to each lender under the SRCF on the aggregate undrawn and uncancelled amount of that lender's available commitments from September 26, 2025 until the last day of the availability period for the facility at the rate of 1.0% of that lender's available commitments.

The original termination date for the SRCF is the date falling 12 months after the Closing Date (as defined in the SRCF). Subject to certain conditions being satisfied, the Company may, in its discretion, elect to extend the termination date for the SRCF to a date falling no later than 6 months after the original termination date for the SRCF (or, if the original termination date for the SRCF has already been extended, to a date falling no later than 6 months after the first extended termination date for the SRCF) pursuant to extension options available under the SRCF.

The foregoing descriptions of the Amended SRCF and the SRCF are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full texts of the associated agreements, for which copies have been filed as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2 in this 6-K.

*Unsecured Convertible Bonds due 2028* 

Following the payment of a $0.02 per share cash distribution in each of December 2024 and March 2025, the adjusted conversion price for the convertible bonds is $6.9376 per share, with the current outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Bonds convertible into 34,507,611 shares.

*Interest*

------

The weighted average nominal interest rate for all of our interest-bearing debt was 9.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 (9.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024). Excluding our Convertible Bonds, the weighted average interest rate for our interest-bearing debt was 10.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 (10.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024).

*Covenants* 

As at September 30, 2025, we were in compliance with the covenants and our obligations under our debt agreements.

**Note 18 - Commitments and Contingencies**

We have commercial commitments which contractually obligate us to settle with cash under certain circumstances. Bank and parent company guarantees entered into between certain customers and governmental bodies guarantee our performance regarding certain drilling contracts, customs import duties and other obligations in various jurisdictions.

<sup>(1)</sup> In November 2023, the Company entered into a new facility with DNB Bank ASA (in connection with the entry into the RCF) to provide guarantees and letters of credit of up to $30.0 million and in August 2024, the Company increased the $30.0 million Guarantee Facility to $45.0 million collateralized by the same security that secures the Notes. On September 25, 2025, the Company entered into an amendment agreement to amend and restate the SSRCF, and effective from this date, the $45.0 million Guarantee Facility ceased to be an ancillary facility and became secured on a senior basis by the same security that secures the Notes and the Amended Super Senior Credit Facility Agreement. As a result, no restricted cash is supporting bank guarantees as at September 30, 2025 and as at December 31, 2024.

As at September 30, 2025, the expected expiration dates of these obligations are as follows:

---

|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| *(In $ millions)* | **Less than 1 year** | **2–3 years** | **4-5 years** | **Thereafter** | **Total** |

**Note 19 - Related Party Transactions**

*a) Transactions with entities over which we have significant influence*

We provided three rigs on a bareboat basis to Perfomex to service its contracts with Opex and two rigs on a bareboat basis to Perfomex II to service its contract with Akal. Perfomex and Perfomex II provided the jack-up rigs under traditional dayrate and technical service agreements ("DTSAs") to Opex and Akal, respectively. This structure enabled Opex and Akal to provide bundled integrated well services to Pemex. Effective October 20, 2022 until December 31, 2023, we provided all five rigs on a bareboat basis to Perfomex, to service its contracts with Opex. The bareboat revenue from these contracts was recognized as "Related party revenue" in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Effective January 1, 2024, Perfomex and Opex agreed to terminate the DTSAs for the jack-up rigs "Grid" and "Gersemi" and effective April 1, 2024, Perfomex and Opex agreed to terminate the DTSAs for the jack-up rigs "Galar", "Odin" and "Njord". The associated bareboat charter agreements between Perfomex and the Company were also terminated. Effective the same dates as the termination dates referenced above, the Company entered into new fixed rate bareboat charter agreements for the jack-up rigs with an unrelated party, which has agreed to provide the five rigs to service Opex's contract with Pemex. As such, effective April 1, 2024, we do not provide rigs on a bareboat basis to Perfomex (see Note 6 - Equity Method Investments and Note 13 - Leases).

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the bareboat revenues from our related parties consisted of the following:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Three months ended September 30, 2025** | **Three months ended September 30, 2024** | **Nine months ended September 30, 2025** | **Nine months ended September 30, 2024** |
| *(In $ millions)* |  |  |  |  |
| Bareboat Revenue - Perfomex |  |  |  | 35.0 |
| **Total** | **—** | **—** | **—** | **35.0** |

---

------

The bareboat revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 consisted primarily of bareboat revenue until March 31, 2024 and amortization of deferred revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2024 associated with the acceleration of amortization of the deferred performance fee associated with the jack-up rigs "Galar", "Odin" and "Njord" as a consequence of the termination of the bareboat charter agreements between Perfomex and the Company, effective April 1, 2024.

Perfomex provides onshore operational and technical support services to the Company for rigs operating in Latin America. These expenses were recognized as "Rig operating and maintenance expenses" in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 consisted of the following:

**Note 20 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments**

We recognize our fair value estimates using a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy has three levels based on reliability of inputs used to determine fair value as follows:

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data

The carrying value and estimated fair value of our financial instruments at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were as follows:

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|

<sup>(1)</sup> The carrying values approximate the fair values due to their near term expected receipt of cash.

<sup>(2)</sup> Short term and long term debt excludes debt discounts, debt premiums and deferred finance charges.

<sup>(3)</sup> This relates to our 10% Notes due 2028 and 10.375% Notes due 2030. These are fair valued using observable market-based inputs.

<sup>(4)</sup> This relates to our 10% Notes due 2028 and 10.375% Notes due 2030 and our Convertible Bonds due 2028 These are fair valued using observable market-based inputs.

*Share Lending Agreement*

In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recognized a deferred finance charge in the amount of $12.4 million in relation to our Share Lending Framework Agreement ("SFLA"), which was fair valued using observable market-based inputs and is amortized over the term of the Convertible Bonds. As of September 30, 2025, the unamortized amount of the issuance costs associated with the SLFA was $5.9 million. See Note 21 - Common Shares for further information.

**Note 21 - Common Shares**

As at September 30, 2025, our shares were listed on the NYSE. Previously our shares were also listed on the OSE, however, we filed for a delisting of our shares on the OSE in 2024. The last day of trading of the Company's common shares on the OSE was December 30, 2024.

---

<sup>(1)</sup> The movement in authorized shares for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, relates to the increase in authorized share capital following a Special General Meeting ("SGM") held on August 6, 2025 where the Company's shareholders approved an increase in authorized share capital by 50,000,000 new common shares with a nominal value of $0.10 per share.

*Issued and outstanding share capital*

| Treasury shares <sup>(2)</sup> | 8527202 | 19153570 |
| **Outstanding** | **285872798** | **244926821** |

---

<sup>(1)</sup> The movement in issued share capital for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, relates to the issuance of 50,000,000 shares in July and August 2025, offset by the cancellation of 19,680,391 shares in March 2025.

<sup>(2)</sup> The movement in treasury shares for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, relates to the cancellation of 19,680,391 shares, the return of 9,160,689 shares under the Share Lending Agreement, the issuance of 156,666 treasury shares to settle share options and the repurchase of 50,000 shares on the OSE at an aggregate price of $0.2 million, which was cash settled in January 2025.

*Equity Issuance*

On July 3, 2025, we conducted a public offering by issuing 50,000,000 shares at a subscription price of $2.05 per share for total gross proceeds of $102.5 million. The offering was completed and the proceeds were received in two settlements. On July 7, 2025, we completed the first settlement of 30,000,000 shares and subsequently on August 7, 2025, we completed the second and final settlement of the remaining 20,000,000 shares, and the Company's issued share capital was increased by 50,000,000 new common shares with a nominal value of $0.10 per share. Share issuance costs associated with the equity raise were $5.6 million.

As we did not have sufficient authorized shares for the full amount of shares to be sold in the public offering, and to enable the second settlement of 20,000,000 shares, during August 2025, the Company's shareholders approved, following a Special General Meeting ("SGM") held on August 6, 2025, an increase in authorized share capital by 50,000,000 new common shares with a nominal value of $0.10 per share, increasing the authorized share capital from 315,000,000 shares to 365,000,000 shares.

*Share Lending Agreement*

In connection with the Convertible Bonds (see Note 17 - Debt), in January 2023, the Company entered into a Share Lending Framework Agreement ("SLFA") with DNB Markets ("DNB") and Drew Holdings Limited ("Drew") with the intention of making up to 25.0 million common shares ("Issuer Lending Shares") available to lend to DNB for the purposes of allowing the holders of the Convertible Bonds to perform hedging activities on the OSE. On April 19, 2023, Drew ceased to be a party to the SLA.

As noted above, upon approval of Company's delisting application by the OSE, the last trading day of the Company's common shares on the OSE was December 30, 2024. Prior to the delisting, the Company sought consent from the bondholders of the unsecured convertible bond due in 2028 to amend the bond terms so that effective from the delisting date, the bond becomes convertible into shares listed on the NYSE (in lieu of shares listed on the OSE). In addition, the Company sought consent from the bondholders (i) amend the terms of the SLFA so that the aggregate number of shares available to be loaned under the SLFA be reduced to the number of shares on loan as at the delisting date, (ii) no new or additional share loans be made available under the SLFA and (iii) that all SLFA-related shares re-delivered to the Company from then onwards not be available to investors to re-borrow, allowing these redelivered shares held in treasury to be cancelled. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, 19,680,391 issued shares, held in treasury, were cancelled.

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had outstanding 1,700,000 shares (10,860,689 as of December 31, 2024) in total loaned to DNB under the SLFA for the purposes of allowing the holders of the Convertible Bonds to perform hedging activities. In the nine months ended September 30, 2025, following the OSE delisting effective as of the end of 2024, 9,160,689 shares which had been loaned under the Share Lending Agreement were returned to the Company and such shares may not be re-loaned under the Share Lending Agreement. As such, during the three months ended March 31, 2025 previously returned shares that were not outstanding under the facility, were cancelled, resulting in the cancellation of 19,680,391 common shares which had been previously issued for the purpose of making loans under this facility.

At issuance, the share lending agreement was accounted for under ASC 470-20 as a "Deferred Finance Charge" of the Convertible Bonds, with an offset to "Additional Paid in Capital" in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The share lending agreement was measured at a fair value in accordance with ASC 820 at inception and the Company recognized $12.4 million accordingly.

As of September 30, 2025, the unamortized amount of the issuance costs associated with the SLFA was $2.5 million ($2.5 million as at December 31, 2024) included in "Short-term debt" and $3.4 million ($5.2 million as at December 31, 2024) included in "Long-term debt" in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, $0.6 million (2024: $0.6 million) and during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, $1.8 million (2024: $1.8 million), respectively, of amortization of issuance costs associated with the SLFA was recognized in "Interest expense" in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

*Share option plan*

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company issued 156,666 treasury shares following the exercise of 156,666 share options. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company issued 411,336 treasury shares following the exercise of 411,336 share options.

**Note 22 - Subsequent Events**

In October 2025, the Company announced that it had issued termination notices for two of its drilling contracts following the recent implementation of international sanctions affecting a counterparty. The terminations relate to the contracts for the jack-up rigs Odin and Hild in Mexico that had firm commitments until November 2025 and March 2026, respectively. As a result of these terminations, the Company expects an adverse financial impact on the Company's revenue backlog of approximately $20 million. The event reflects conditions that arose after the balance sheet date, and accordingly, no adjustment has been made to the consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2025. Management is currently seeking alternative opportunities for the jack-up rigs.

(b) Every act, omission, agreement, undertaking, settlement, waiver, amendment, supplement, variation, notice or other communication given or made by the Obligors' Agent or given to the Obligors' Agent under any Finance Document on behalf of another Obligor or in connection with any Finance Document (whether or not known to any other Obligor and whether occurring before or after such other – 59 – Obligor became an Obligor under any Finance Document) shall be binding for all purposes on that Obligor as if that Obligor had expressly made, given or concurred with it (to the extent permitted by law). In the event of any conflict between any notices or other communications of the Obligors' Agent and any other Obligor, those of the Obligors' Agent shall prevail. 2.6 Affiliates of Lenders (a) In respect of a Loan or Loans to a particular Borrower ("Designated Loans"), a Lender (a "Designating Lender") may at any time and from time to time designate (by written notice to the Agent and the Company): (i) a substitute Facility Office from which it will make Designated Loans (a "Substitute Facility Office"); or (ii) nominate an Affiliate to act as the Lender of Designated Loans (a "Substitute Affiliate Lender").

In particular the Commitments of the Designating Lender will not be treated as reduced by the introduction of the Substitute Affiliate Lender for voting purposes under this Agreement or the other Finance Documents. (d) Save as mentioned in paragraph (c) above, a Substitute Affiliate Lender will be treated as a Lender for all purposes under the Finance Documents and having a Commitment equal to the principal amount of all Designated Loans in which it is participating if and for so long as it continues to be a Substitute Affiliate Lender under this Agreement. (e) A Designating Lender may revoke its designation of an Affiliate as a Substitute Affiliate Lender by notice in writing to the Agent and the Company provided that such notice may only take effect when there are no Designated Loans outstanding to the Substitute Affiliate Lender. Upon such Substitute Affiliate Lender ceasing to be a Substitute Affiliate Lender the Designating Lender will automatically assume (and be deemed to assume without further action by any Party) all rights and obligations previously vested in the Substitute Affiliate Lender.

(d) In respect of Letters of Credit utilised under a Facility, on receipt of any demand under paragraph (a) of Clause 7.1 (Immediately Payable) the relevant Borrower shall (unless the Company notifies the Agent otherwise) be deemed to have delivered to the Agent a duly completed Utilisation Request requesting a Loan in dollars (an "LC Loan"): (i) in an amount equal to the amount of the relevant claim (if applicable, net of any cash cover provided by the relevant Borrower and, if that claim is denominated in an Optional Currency, the principal amount of that LC Loan in dollars calculated using the Spot Rate of Exchange for that Optional Currency); (ii) for an Interest Period of three Months or such other period of up to six Months as notified by the relevant Borrower or the Company to the Agent prior to the Utilisation Date; and (iii) with a Utilisation Date falling five Business Days after the date of receipt of the relevant demand, and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Lenders shall be required to comply with their obligations under Clause 5.4 (Lenders' participation) in respect of such LC Loan. – 71 – (e) The proceeds of any such Loan shall be used to pay the relevant claim. (f) Each Borrower and each Lender acknowledges that each Issuing Bank: (i) is not obliged to carry out any investigation or seek any confirmation from any other person before paying a claim; and (ii) deals in documents only and will not be concerned with the legality of a claim or any underlying transaction or any available set-off, counterclaim or other defence of any person; and (iii) an Issuing Bank may assume that any demand, certificate, statement or document which appears on its face to be in order is correct and properly made.

(b) Each Lender must promptly on demand indemnify an Issuing Bank against its share of any loss or liability which that Issuing Bank incurs under or in connection with any Letter of Credit and which at the date of demand has not been paid for by an Obligor, except to the extent that the loss or liability is caused by the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Issuing Bank. (c) A Lender's share of the liability or loss referred to in paragraph (b) above will be its share of such Letter of Credit on the Utilisation Date (as determined in accordance with paragraph (a) of Clause 6.5 (Issue of Letter of Credit)) for that Letter of Credit, adjusted to reflect any subsequent assignment or transfer in accordance with Clause 29 (Changes to the Lenders) (an "LC Proportion").

(g) The obligations of each Borrower and Lender under this Clause 7.3 will not be affected by any act, omission or thing which, but for this provision, would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause 7.3 (whether or not known to it or any other person).

However, the relevant Borrower's obligation to pay any Letter of Credit fee in relation to the relevant Letter of Credit to the Agent (for the account of that Lender) in accordance with paragraph (b) of Clause 17.6 (Fees in respect of Letters of Credit) will be reduced proportionately as from the date on which it provides cash cover (and for so long as the relevant amount of cash cover continues to stand as collateral).

(b) If any arrangement contemplated in paragraph (a) above is to occur, each relevant Borrower and the relevant Issuing Bank shall each confirm that to be the case in writing to the Agent. Upon such Termination Date or, as the case may be, date of cancellation, any such facility shall continue as between the said entities on a bilateral basis and not as part of, or under, the Finance Documents (a "Bilateral Letter of Credit"). Save for any rights and obligations against any Finance Party under the Finance Documents arising prior to such Termination Date or, as the case may be, date of cancellation, no such rights or obligations in respect of such Bilateral Letter of Credit shall, as between the Finance Parties, continue and the Transaction Security shall not support any such Letter of Credit in respect of any – 75 – matters that arise after such Termination Date or, as the case may be, date of cancellation. 8.

In this event, any Lender that gives notice pursuant to this Clause 8.2 will be required to participate in the Loan in the Base Currency (in an amount equal to that Lender's proportion of the Base Currency Amount, or in respect of a Rollover Utilisation, an amount equal to that Lender's proportion of the Base Currency Amount of the Rollover Utilisation that is due to be made) and its participation will be treated as a separate Loan denominated in the Base Currency during that Interest Period. 8.3 Agent's calculations Each Lender's participation in a Loan will be determined in accordance with paragraph (b) of Clause 5.4 (Lenders' participation). 9. ANCILLARY FACILITIES 9.1 Type of Facility An Ancillary Facility may be by way of any of the following (or any combination of the following): (a) an overdraft, cheque clearing, automatic payment or other current account facility; (b) a guarantee, bonding or documentary or stand-by letter of credit facility; (c) a short term loan facility; (d) a derivatives facility; (e) a foreign exchange facility; and

(b) However, those terms: (i) to the extent relating to the rate of interest, fees and other remuneration in respect of that Ancillary Facility, must be based upon the normal market rates and terms at that time of that Ancillary Lender; (ii) may only allow Borrowers (or Affiliates of Borrowers nominated pursuant to Clause 9.9 (Affiliates of Borrowers)) to use that Ancillary Facility; (iii) may not allow the Ancillary Outstandings to exceed the Ancillary Commitment under that Ancillary Facility; (iv) may not allow the Ancillary Commitment of a Lender to exceed the Available Commitment with respect to the relevant Facility of that Lender; and (v) must require that the Ancillary Commitment is reduced to nil, and that all Ancillary Outstandings are repaid (or cash cover is provided in respect of all the Ancillary Outstandings) not later than the Termination Date for the relevant Facility (or such earlier date as the relevant Facility Commitment of the relevant Ancillary Lender (or its Affiliate) is reduced to zero). (c) If there is any inconsistency between any term of an Ancillary Facility and any term of this Agreement, this Agreement shall prevail except for (i) Clause 38.3 (Day count convention) which shall not prevail for the purposes of calculating fees, interest or commission relating to an Ancillary Facility; (ii) an Ancillary Facility comprising more than one account where the terms of the Ancillary Documents shall prevail to the extent necessary to permit the netting of balances on those accounts; and (iii) where the relevant term of this Agreement would be contrary to, or inconsistent with, the law governing the relevant Ancillary Document, in which case that term of this Agreement shall not prevail. (d) Interest, commission and fees on Ancillary Facilities are dealt with in Clause 17.7 (Interest, commission and fees on Ancillary Facilities). 9.4 Repayment of Ancillary Facility (a) An Ancillary Facility shall cease to be available on the Termination Date in relation to the relevant Facility or such earlier date on which its expiry date occurs or on which it is cancelled in accordance with the terms of this Agreement unless otherwise agreed with the relevant Ancillary Lender pursuant to Clause 9.13 (Continuation of Ancillary Facilities).

– 78 – (b) If and to the extent that an Ancillary Facility expires, or is cancelled (in whole or in part) in accordance with its terms or is otherwise cancelled in accordance with this Agreement, the Ancillary Commitment of the Ancillary Lender shall be reduced, and the relevant unutilised Commitment of the relevant Lender will immediately be increased, accordingly by an amount equal to the amount of the Ancillary Commitment of that Ancillary Facility (or, if less, that part of it which has expired or been cancelled). (c) No Ancillary Lender may demand repayment or prepayment of any amounts or demand cash cover for any liabilities made available or incurred by it under its Ancillary Facility (except where the Ancillary Facility is provided on a net limit basis to the extent required to bring any gross outstanding down to the net limit) prior to its expiry date unless: (i) the relevant Total Commitments have been cancelled in full, or all outstanding Utilisations under the relevant Facility have become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, or the Agent has declared all outstanding Utilisations under the relevant Facility immediately due and payable, or the expiry date of the Ancillary Facility occurs; or (ii) it becomes unlawful in any applicable jurisdiction for the Ancillary Lender to perform any of its obligations as contemplated by this Agreement or to fund, issue or maintain its participation in its Ancillary Facility; or (iii) the Ancillary Outstandings (if any) under that Ancillary Facility can be refinanced by a Loan under the Facility pursuant to which that Ancillary Outstanding was incurred and the Ancillary Lender gives sufficient notice to enable such a Loan to be made to refinance those Ancillary Outstandings. (d) For the purposes of determining whether or not the Ancillary Outstandings under an Ancillary Facility mentioned in paragraph (c)(iii) above can be refinanced by a Utilisation under the Facility pursuant to which that Ancillary Outstanding was incurred: (i) the relevant Commitment of the Ancillary Lender will be increased by the amount of its Ancillary Commitment; and (ii) the Utilisation may (so long as paragraph (c)(i) above does not apply) be made irrespective of whether a Default is outstanding or any applicable condition precedent is not satisfied (but only to the extent that the proceeds are applied in refinancing those Ancillary Outstandings) and irrespective of whether Clause 4.4 (Maximum number of Utilisations) or paragraph (a)(iv) of Clause 5.2 (Completion of a Utilisation Request for Loans) applies. (e) On the making of a Utilisation of a Facility to refinance all or part of any Ancillary Outstandings under the same Facility: (i) each Lender will participate in that Utilisation in an amount (as determined by the Agent) which will result as nearly as possible in the aggregate amount – 79 – of its participation in the relevant Loans then outstanding bearing the same proportion to the aggregate amount of the relevant Loans then outstanding as its relevant Commitment bears to the relevant Total Commitments; and (ii) the relevant Ancillary Facility shall be cancelled to the extent of such refinancing. (f) In relation to an Ancillary Facility which comprises an overdraft facility where a Designated Net Amount has been established, the Ancillary Lender providing that Ancillary Facility shall only be obliged to take into account for the purposes of calculating compliance with the Designated Net Amount those credit balances which it is permitted to take into account by the then current law and regulations in relation to its reporting of exposures to the applicable regulatory authorities as netted for capital adequacy purposes. 9.5 Ancillary Outstandings Each Borrower and each Ancillary Lender agrees with and for the benefit of each Lender that: (a) the Ancillary Outstandings under any Ancillary Facility provided by that Ancillary Lender shall not at any time exceed the Ancillary Commitment applicable to that Ancillary Facility and where the Ancillary Facility is an overdraft facility comprising more than one account, Ancillary Outstandings under that Ancillary Facility shall not exceed the Designated Net Amount in respect of that Ancillary Facility; and (b) where all or part of the Ancillary Facility is an overdraft facility comprising more than one account, the Ancillary Outstandings (calculated on the basis that the words "net of any credit balances on any account of any Borrower of an Ancillary Facility with the Ancillary Lender making available that Ancillary Facility to the extent that the credit balances are freely available to be set off by that Ancillary Lender against liabilities owed to it by that Borrower under that Ancillary Facility" of the definition of that term were deleted) shall not exceed the Designated Gross Amount applicable to that Ancillary Facility. 9.6 Voluntary cancellation of Ancillary Facilities The Company may, if it gives the Agent and the relevant Ancillary Lender not less than three Business Days' prior notice, cancel the whole or any part of the Ancillary Commitment under an Ancillary Facility. 9.7 Information Each Borrower and each Ancillary Lender shall, promptly upon request by the Agent, supply the Agent with any information relating to the operation of an Ancillary Facility (including the Ancillary Outstandings) as the Agent may reasonably request from time to time. Each Borrower consents to all such information being released to the Agent and the other Finance Parties.

– 80 – 9.8 Affiliates of Lenders as Ancillary Lenders (a) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, an Affiliate of a Lender may become an Ancillary Lender. In such case, the Lender and its Affiliate shall be treated as a single Lender whose Commitment is the amount of such Lender's Commitment under the relevant Facility. For the purposes of calculating the Lender's Available Commitment with respect to the relevant Facility, the Lender's Commitment under the relevant Facility shall be reduced to the extent of the aggregate of the Ancillary Commitments of its Affiliates. (b) The Company shall specify any relevant Affiliate of a Lender in any notice delivered by the Company to the Agent pursuant to paragraph (b) of Clause 9.2 (Availability). (c) An Affiliate of a Lender which becomes an Ancillary Lender shall accede to the Intercreditor Agreement and any person which so accedes shall, at the same time, become a Party as an Ancillary Lender (as the case may be). (d) If a Lender assigns all of its rights and benefits or transfers all of its rights and obligations to a New Lender (as defined in Clause 29 (Changes to the Lenders)), its Affiliate shall cease to have any obligations under this Agreement or any Ancillary Document. (e) Where this Agreement or any other Finance Document imposes an obligation on an Ancillary Lender and the relevant Ancillary Lender is an Affiliate of a Lender which is not a party to that document, the relevant Lender shall ensure that the obligation is performed by its Affiliate. 9.9 Affiliates of Borrowers (a) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, a member of the Group which is an Affiliate of a Borrower may with the approval of the relevant Ancillary Lender become a borrower with respect to an Ancillary Facility. (b) The Company shall specify any relevant Affiliate of a Borrower in any notice delivered by the Company to the Agent pursuant to paragraph (b) of Clause 9.2 (Availability). (c) If a Borrower ceases to be a Borrower under this Agreement in accordance with Clause 31.4 (Resignation of an Obligor), its Affiliate shall cease to have any rights under this Agreement or any Ancillary Document. If an Affiliate of a Borrower ceases to be an Affiliate of such Borrower, it shall cease to have any rights under this Agreement or any Ancillary Document. (d) Where this Agreement or any other Finance Document imposes an obligation on a Borrower under an Ancillary Facility and the relevant Borrower is an Affiliate of a Borrower which is not a party to that document, the relevant Borrower shall ensure that the obligation is performed by its Affiliate. (e) Any reference in this Agreement or any other Finance Document to a Borrower being under no obligations (whether actual or contingent) as a Borrower under such – 81 – Finance Document shall be construed to include a reference to any Affiliate of a Borrower being under no obligations under any Finance Document or Ancillary Document. 9.10 Commitment amounts Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, each Lender shall ensure that at all times its Commitment is not less than the aggregate of: (a) its Ancillary Commitment; and (b) the Ancillary Commitment of its Affiliate. 9.11 Adjustments required in relation to Ancillary Facilities The Agent may, by notice in writing to the relevant Lenders, reallocate drawn and undrawn Commitments at the end of an Interest Period among relevant Lenders as may be necessary to ensure that any relevant Lender that intends to enter into an Ancillary Facility has an undrawn Commitment under the relevant Facility sufficient to allow it to enter into such Ancillary Facility, provided that for the avoidance of doubt no such reallocation may increase any Lender's Commitment. 9.12 Adjustment for Ancillary Facilities upon acceleration (a) In this Clause 9.12: "Revolving Outstandings" means, in relation to a Lender, the aggregate of the equivalent in the Base Currency of (i) its participation in each Loan then outstanding under a particular Facility (together with the aggregate amount of all accrued interest, fees and commission owed to it as a Lender under such Facility), and (ii) if the Lender is also an Ancillary Lender, the Ancillary Outstandings in respect of Ancillary Facilities provided by that Ancillary Lender (together with the aggregate amount of all accrued interest, fees and commission owed to it as an Ancillary Lender in respect of the Ancillary Facility). "Total Revolving Outstandings" means the aggregate of all Revolving Outstandings. (b) If a Declared Default occurs, each Lender and each Ancillary Lender shall promptly adjust by corresponding transfers (to the extent necessary) of their claims in respect of amounts outstanding to them under the relevant Facility and each Ancillary Facility to ensure that after such transfers the Revolving Outstandings of each Lender bear the same proportion to the relevant Total Revolving Outstandings as such Lender's relevant Commitment bears to the relevant Total Commitments, each as at the date the notice of such Declared Default is served under Clause 28.7 (Acceleration). (c) If an amount outstanding under an Ancillary Facility is a contingent liability and that contingent liability becomes an actual liability or is reduced to zero after the original adjustment is made under paragraph (a) above, then each Lender and Ancillary Lender will make a further adjustment by corresponding transfers (to the

------

![](exhibit41-sscfamendmenta052.jpg)

– 82 – extent necessary) to put themselves in the position they would have been in had the original adjustment been determined by reference to the actual liability or, as the case may be, zero liability and not the contingent liability. (d) Prior to the application of the provisions of paragraph (a) of this Clause 9.12, an Ancillary Lender that has provided an overdraft comprising more than one account under an Ancillary Facility shall set-off any liabilities owing to it under such overdraft facility against credit balances on any account comprised in such overdraft facility. (e) All calculation to be made pursuant to this Clause 9.12 shall be made by the Agent based upon information provided to it by the Lenders and Ancillary Lenders. 9.13 Continuation of Ancillary Facilities (a) Each Ancillary Facility shall be prepaid and cancelled on the Termination Date (or such earlier date in accordance with this Agreement), provided that a Borrower (or an Affiliate of a Borrower) and an Ancillary Lender may, as between themselves only, agree that any Ancillary Facilities will continue to remain available on a bilateral basis following the Termination Date applicable to the relevant Facility or, as the case may be, the date the relevant Commitments are otherwise cancelled under this Agreement. (b) If any arrangement contemplated in paragraph (a) above is to occur, each relevant Borrower and the Ancillary Lender shall each confirm that to be the case in writing to the Agent. Upon such Termination Date or, as the case may be, date of cancellation, any such facility shall continue as between the said entities on a bilateral basis and not as part of, or under, the Finance Documents (a "Bilateral Facility"). Save for any rights and obligations against any Finance Party under the Finance Documents arising prior to such Termination Date or, as the case may be, date of cancellation, no such rights or obligations in respect of such Bilateral Facility shall, as between the Finance Parties, continue and the Transaction Security shall not support any such facility in respect of any matters that arise after such Termination Date or, as the case may be, date of cancellation. 10. REPAYMENT 10.1 Repayment of Loans (a) Subject to paragraph (b) below, each Borrower which has drawn a Loan shall repay that Loan on the last day of its Interest Period. (b) Without prejudice to each Borrower's obligation under paragraph (a) above, if one or more Loans are to be made available to a Borrower: (i) on the same day that a maturing Loan is due to be repaid by that Borrower; (ii) in the same currency as the maturing Loan (unless it arose as a result of the operation of Clause 8.2 (Unavailability of a currency)); (iii) in whole or in part for the purpose of refinancing the maturing Loan; and – 83 – (iv) the proportion borne by each Lender's participation in the maturing Loan to the amount of that maturing Loan is the same as the proportion borne by that Lender's participation in the new Loans to the aggregate amount of those new Loans, the aggregate amount of the new Loans shall, unless the Company notifies the Agent to the contrary in the relevant Utilisation Request, be treated as if applied in or towards repayment of the maturing Loan so that: (A) if the amount of the maturing Loan exceeds the aggregate amount of the new Loans: (1) the relevant Borrower will only be required to pay an amount in cash in the relevant currency equal to that excess; and (2) each Lender's participation (if any) in the new Loans shall be treated as having been made available and applied by the relevant Borrower in or towards repayment of that Lender's participation (if any) in the maturing Loan and that Lender will not be required to make its participation in the new Loans available in cash; and (B) if the amount of the maturing Loan is equal to or less than the aggregate amount of the new Loans: (1) the relevant Borrower will not be required to make any payment in cash; and (2) each Lender will be required to make its participation in the new Loans available in cash only to the extent that its participation (if any) in the new Loans exceeds that Lender's participation (if any) in the maturing Loan and the remainder of that Lender's participation in the new Loans shall be treated as having been made available and applied by the relevant Borrower in or towards repayment of that Lender's participation in the maturing Loan. (c) At any time when a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, the maturity date of each of the participations of that Lender in the Loans then outstanding will be automatically extended to the Termination Date in relation to the Facility and will be treated as separate Loans (the "Separate Loans") denominated in the currency in which the relevant participations are outstanding. (d) A Borrower to whom a Separate Loan is outstanding may prepay that Loan by giving three Business Days' prior notice to the Agent. The Agent will forward a copy of a prepayment notice received in accordance with this paragraph (d) to the Defaulting Lender concerned as soon as practicable on receipt. (e) Interest in respect of a Separate Loan will accrue for successive Interest Periods selected by the relevant Borrower (or the Company on its behalf) by the time and date specified by the Agent (acting reasonably) and will be payable by that

– 84 – Borrower to the Defaulting Lender on the last day of each Interest Period of that Loan. (f) The terms of this Agreement relating to Loans generally shall continue to apply to Separate Loans other than to the extent inconsistent with paragraphs (c) to (e) above, in which case those paragraphs shall prevail in respect of any Separate Loan. 10.2 Repayment of Letters of Credit (a) If not previously repaid, each Borrower must repay each Letter of Credit issued on its behalf in full on the date stated in that Letter of Credit to be its Expiry Date. (b) Subject to the other terms of this Agreement, any amounts repaid under paragraph (a) above may be re-utilised. (c) Subject to Clause 7.8 (Continuation of Letters of Credit), any Letter of Credit still outstanding on the Termination Date for a Facility shall be repaid on that date. 11. ILLEGALITY, VOLUNTARY PREPAYMENT AND CANCELLATION 11.1 Illegality If after the date of this Agreement (or, if later, the date the relevant Lender became a Party) it becomes unlawful in any applicable jurisdiction for a Lender to perform any of its obligations as contemplated by this Agreement or to fund, issue or maintain its Commitment or participation in any Utilisation or it becomes contrary to Sanctions to do the same: (a) that Lender, shall promptly notify the Agent upon becoming aware of that event; (b) upon the Agent notifying the Company, the Commitment of that Lender will be immediately cancelled to the extent necessary to comply with laws, or, at the Company's request, the Lender's Commitment shall be transferred to another person pursuant to Clause 41.7 (Replacement of Lender); and (c) to the extent that Lender's participation has not been transferred pursuant to Clause 41.7 (Replacement of Lender), each Borrower shall repay that Lender's participation in the Utilisations made to that Borrower on the last day of the Interest Period for each Utilisation occurring after the Agent has notified the Company or, if earlier, the date specified by the Lender in the notice delivered to the Agent (being no earlier than the last day of any applicable grace period permitted by law) and that Lender's corresponding Commitment(s) shall be cancelled in the amount of the participations repaid. 11.2 Sanctions If any Relevant Person or any direct or indirect Subsidiary of any Relevant Person has violated any Sanctions or has become a Restricted Party: (a) the Company shall promptly notify the Agent thereof; and (b) upon receipt of such notice, each Lender shall have the right to cancel its Commitments and demand the Borrowers repay any Loans owing by it together – 85 – with accrued interest, and all other amounts accrued under the Finance Documents on the date specified by the Agent in the notice delivered to the Borrowers, provided that such date should not to be less than three (3) Business Days' after the Agent's notice to the Borrowers, but not later than on the date required by the relevant Sanctions, if applicable. 11.3 Illegality in relation to the Issuing Bank If after the date of this Agreement (or, if later, the date the relevant Issuing Bank became a Party) it becomes unlawful in any applicable jurisdiction for an Issuing Bank to perform any of its obligations as contemplated by this Agreement or to fund or maintain its participation in any Letter of Credit (an "Affected Letter of Credit"): (a) that Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Agent upon becoming aware of that event; (b) upon the Agent notifying the Company, the Facility shall cease to be available for the issue of any future Letters of Credit by that Issuing Bank that would give rise to such unlawfulness; (c) that Issuing Bank shall not be obliged to issue any future Letter of Credit to the extent that would give rise to such unlawfulness; and (d) each relevant Borrower shall procure the release or (to the extent it curbs such illegality) repayment of any Affected Letter of Credit (or the relevant part thereof) giving rise to such unlawfulness. 11.4 Voluntary cancellation (a) The Company may, if it gives the Agent not less than three Business Days' (or such shorter period as the Agent (acting on the instructions of the Majority Lenders under the relevant Facility (each acting reasonably)) may agree) prior notice, cancel the whole or any part (being a minimum Base Currency Amount of $1,000,000) of an Available Facility. (b) Any cancellation under this Clause 11.4 shall reduce the Commitments of the Lenders rateably under that Facility. 11.5 Voluntary prepayment (a) Any Borrower may: (i) in the case of a Term Rate Loan, if it (or the Company on a Borrower's behalf) gives the Agent not less than three Business Days' prior notice (or such shorter period as the Majority Lenders under the relevant Facility may agree); or (ii) in the case of a Compounded Rate Loan in a Compounded Rate Currency, if it (or the Company on a Borrower's behalf) gives the Agent not less than three applicable RFR Business Days' prior notice (or such shorter period as the Majority Lenders under the relevant Facility may agree);

– 86 – prepay the whole or any part of any Loan (but if in part, being an amount that reduces the amount of the Loan by a minimum amount of $1,000,000 or its equivalent and multiples thereof). (b) A Borrower (or the Company on its behalf) may elect to apply a prepayment of a Loan made under this Clause 11.5 against any or all of the Loans in such proportions as it selects in its sole discretion. 11.6 Right of cancellation and repayment in relation to a single Lender or Issuing Bank (a) If: (i) any sum payable to any Lender by the Company or an Obligor is required to be increased under Clause 18.2 (Tax Gross Up); (ii) any Lender or Issuing Bank claims indemnification from the Company or an Obligor under Clause 18.3 (Tax Indemnity) or Clause 19.1 (Increased costs); (iii) any Lender requests payment from the Company or any Obligor based on the occurrence of a Disruption Event; or (iv) any Lender serves a Lender Cancellation Notice, the Company may, whilst the circumstance giving rise to the requirement for that increase or indemnification continues, if such circumstances relate to a Lender, give the Agent notice of cancellation of the Commitment(s) of that Lender and its intention to procure the repayment of that Lender's participation in the Utilisations or give the Agent notice of its intention to replace that Lender in accordance with Clause 41.7 (Replacement of Lender) or, if such circumstances relate to an Issuing Bank, give the Agent notice of repayment of any outstanding Letter of Credit issued by it and cancellation of its appointment as an Issuing Bank under this Agreement in relation to any Letters of Credit to be issued in the future.

(b) Subject to this Clause 15, a Borrower (or the Company) may select an Interest Period of (i) 1, 3 or 6 Months, provided that on the Quotation Day for such a Loan, a Screen Rate (or in the case of a USD Term Rate Loan, Term SOFR or Interpolated Term SOFR) is available for such tenor in the relevant currency; or (ii) if the Loan is in a Compounded Rate Currency, the Interest Periods specified in respect of that currency in the applicable Compounded Rate Terms; or (iii) such other period agreed between the Company and the Agent, acting on the instructions of all of the Lenders, acting reasonably in relation to the relevant Loan for any other period.

![](exhibit41-sscfamendmenta057.jpg)

– 92 – the Interest Period of that Loan shall (if it is longer than the applicable Fallback Interest Period) be shortened to the applicable Fallback Interest Period and the applicable EURIBOR for that shortened Interest Period shall be determined pursuant to the definition of EURIBOR (as applicable). (c) Shortened Interest Period and Historic Screen Rate: If the Interest Period of a Loan is, after giving effect to paragraph (b) above, either the applicable Fallback Interest Period or shorter than the applicable Fallback Interest Period and, in either case, no Screen Rate is available for EURIBOR for: (i) the currency of that Loan; or (ii) the Interest Period of that Loan and it is not possible to calculate the Interpolated Screen Rate, the applicable EURIBOR shall be the Historic Screen Rate for that Loan. (d) Shortened Interest Period and Interpolated Historic Screen Rate: If paragraph (c) above applies but no Historic Screen Rate is available for the Interest Period of the Loan, the applicable EURIBOR shall be the Interpolated Historic Screen Rate for a period equal in length to the Interest Period of that Loan. (e) Reference Bank Rate: if paragraph (d) above applies but it is not possible to calculate the Interpolated Historic Screen Rate, the Interest Period of that Loan shall, if it has been shortened pursuant to paragraph (b) above, revert to its previous length and the applicable EURIBOR shall be the Reference Bank Rate as of the Specified Time for the currency of that Loan and for a period equal in length to the Interest Period of that Loan. (f) Cost of funds: if paragraph (e) above applies but no Reference Bank Rate is available for the relevant currency or Interest Period there shall be no EURIBOR for that Loan and Clause 16.3 (Cost of Funds) shall apply to that Loan for that Interest Period. 16.2 Market disruption If, in relation to a Term Rate Loan (other than a USD Term Rate Loan), before close of business in London on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period, the Agent receives notifications from a Lender or Lenders whose participations in a Term Rate Loan (other than a USD Term Rate Loan) exceed 40 per cent. of that Term Rate Loan (other than a USD Term Rate Loan) that the cost to it of funding its participation in that Loan from the wholesale market or such other source it may reasonably select for the relevant currency would be in excess of EURIBOR then Clause 16.3 (Cost of Funds) shall apply to that Loan for the relevant Interest Period. For the avoidance of doubt, this Clause 16.2 shall not apply to any USD Term Rate Loan. 16.3 Cost of Funds (a) If this Clause 16.3 applies, the rate of interest on each Lender's share of that Loan for the relevant Interest Period shall be the percentage rate per annum which is the sum of: – 93 – (i) the Margin; and (ii) the weighted average of the rates notified to the Agent by each Lender as soon as practicable and in any event by close of business on the date falling two Business Days after the Quotation Day (or, if earlier, on the date falling two Business Days before the date on which interest is due to be paid in respect of that Interest Period), to be that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to the relevant Lender of funding its participation in that Loan from whatever source it may reasonably select, provided that such Lender confirms (for the benefit of the Group) to the Agent that such percentage rate per annum represents the cost to the relevant Lender of funding its participation in that currency under other syndicated credit facilities involving similarly situated borrowers under which that Lender is a lender (provided that no Finance Party shall be required to disclose information it is not legally allowed to disclose or in respect of which it is bound by contractual requirements of confidentiality or which is otherwise price-sensitive information prohibited from being disclosed pursuant to applicable law or regulation). (b) If this Clause 17.3 applies and the Agent or the Company so requires, the Agent and the Company shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than 30 days) with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining the rate of interest. (c) Any alternative basis agreed pursuant to paragraph (b) above shall, with the prior consent of all the Lenders (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and the Company, be binding on all Parties, provided that: (i) any alternative basis agreed pursuant to paragraph (b) shall automatically be binding on a Defaulting Lender; (ii) any alternative basis agreed pursuant to paragraph (b) shall automatically be binding on any Lender which does not accept or reject a request for any such consent before 5.00 p.m. on the date falling 20 Business Days' from the date of that request being made (or such other time and date as the Company may specify, with the consent of the Agent if less than 20 Business Days from the date of such request being made); and (iii) any Lender which rejects a request for any such consent shall (provided that the Majority Lenders have consented) be deemed to be a Non-Consenting Lender. (d) If this Clause 16.3 applies but any Lender does not supply a quotation by the time specified in paragraph (a)(ii) above the rate of interest (and the weighted average) shall be calculated on the basis of the quotations of the remaining Lenders. 16.4 Break Costs (a) Each Borrower shall, within three Business Days of demand by a Finance Party, pay to that Finance Party its Break Costs attributable to all or any part of a Term

(b) If a New Lender, an Increase Lender or an Additional Facility Lender fails to indicate its status in respect of a UK Borrower in accordance with this Clause 18.5 then such New Lender, Increase Lender or Additional Facility Lender shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement (including by each Obligor) as if it is not a UK Qualifying Lender until such time as it notifies the Agent or the Company – 105 – which category applies (and the Agent, upon receipt of such notification, shall inform the Company). For the avoidance of doubt, a Transfer Certificate, Assignment Agreement, Increase Confirmation or Additional Facility Lender Accession Letter shall not be invalidated by any failure of a Lender to comply with this Clause 18.5. 18.6 Stamp taxes The Company shall pay and, within 10 Business Days of demand by the Agent, indemnify each Finance Party against any cost, loss or liability that Finance Party incurs in relation to all stamp duty, registration and other similar Taxes payable in respect of any Finance Document except (otherwise than: (i) at a time when an Event of Default is continuing; or (ii) at the request of an Obligor, including pursuant to Clause 21 (Mitigation by the Lenders)) for any such Tax payable: (a) in respect of an assignment or, transfer or sub-participation of a Loan (or part thereof) by that Finance Party; and (b) upon a voluntary registration made by any Party if such registration is not necessary to evidence, prove, maintain, enforce, compel or otherwise assert the rights of such Party or obligations of another Party under a Finance Document. 18.7 VAT (a) All amounts expressed to be payable under a Finance Document by any Party to a Finance Party which (in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for a supply or supplies for VAT purposes shall be deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on such supply or supplies and accordingly, subject to paragraph (b) below if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply or supplies made by any Finance Party to any Party in connection with a Finance Document, and such Finance Party is required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, that Party shall pay to the Finance Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying the consideration for that supply or supplies) an amount equal to the amount of the VAT (and such Finance Party shall promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to such Party). (b) If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party (the "Supplier") to any other Finance Party (the "Recipient") under a Finance Document, and any Party other than the Recipient (the "Relevant Party") is required by the terms of any Finance Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for that supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse or indemnify the Recipient in respect of that consideration): (i) (where the Supplier is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must also pay to the Supplier (at the same time as paying that amount) an additional amount equal to the amount of the VAT. The Recipient must (where this paragraph (i) applies) promptly pay to the Relevant Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment the Recipient receives from the relevant tax authority which the

(c) Where a Finance Document requires any Party to reimburse or indemnify a Finance Party for any costs or expenses, that Party shall reimburse or indemnify (as the case may be) the Finance Party against any VAT incurred by the Finance Party in respect of the costs or expenses, to the extent that the Finance Party reasonably determines that neither it nor any group of which it is a member for VAT purposes is entitled to credit or receive repayment in respect of the VAT from the relevant tax authority. (d) Any reference in Clause 18.7 (VAT) to any party shall, at any time when such party is treated as a member of a group for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the person who is treated a making the supply or (as appropriate) receiving the supply under the grouping rules (as provided for in Article 11 of the Council Directive 2006/112/EC (or as implemented by the relevant member state of the European Union or any other similar provision in any jurisdiction which is not a member state of the European Union)) so that a reference to a Party shall be construed as a reference to that Party or the relevant group or unity (or fiscal unity) of which that Party is a member for VAT purposes at the relevant time or the relevant member (or head) of that group or unity (or fiscal unity) at the relevant time (as the case may be). (e) In relation to any supply made by a Finance Party to any Party under a Finance Document, if reasonably requested by such Finance Party, that Party must promptly provide such Finance Party with details of that Party's VAT registration and such other information as is reasonably requested in connection with such Finance Party's VAT reporting requirements in relation to such supply. 18.8 FATCA Deduction (a) Each Party may make any FATCA Deduction it is required to make by FATCA, and any payment required in connection with that FATCA Deduction, and no Party shall be required to increase any payment in respect of which it makes such a FATCA Deduction or otherwise compensate the recipient of the payment for that FATCA Deduction. (b) Each Party shall promptly, upon becoming aware that it must make a FATCA Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of such FATCA Deduction) notify the Party to whom it is making the payment and, in addition, shall notify the Company and the Agent, and the Agent shall notify the other Finance Parties. – 107 – 18.9 FATCA Information (a) Subject to paragraph (c) below, each Party shall, within 10 Business Days of a reasonable request by another Party: (i) confirm to that other Party whether it is: (A) a FATCA Exempt Party; or (B) not a FATCA Exempt Party; (ii) supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status under FATCA as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party's compliance with FATCA; and (iii) supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party's compliance with any other similar international exchange of information regime. (b) If a Party confirms to another Party pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) above that it is a FATCA Exempt Party and it subsequently becomes aware that it is not, or has ceased to be a FATCA Exempt Party, that Party shall notify that other Party reasonably promptly. (c) Paragraph (a) above shall not oblige any Finance Party to do anything which would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of: (i) any law or regulation; (ii) any fiduciary duty; or (iii) any duty of confidentiality. (d) If a Party fails to confirm whether or not it is a FATCA Exempt Party or to supply forms, documentation or other information requested in accordance with paragraph (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where paragraph (c) above applies), then such Party shall be treated for the purposes of the Finance Documents (and payments under them) as if it is not a FATCA Exempt Party until such time as the Party in question provides the requested confirmation, forms, documentation or other information. 19. INCREASED COSTS 19.1 Increased costs (a) Subject to Clause 19.3 (Exceptions) the Borrowers shall, within 10 Business Days of a demand by the Agent, pay for the account of a Finance Party the amount of any Increased Costs incurred by that Finance Party or any of its Affiliates as a result of (i) the introduction of or any change in (or in the interpretation, administration or application of) any law or regulation or treaty after the date of this Agreement (or, if later, and unless at such time the Majority Lenders are making a claim pursuant

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT REGARDING ANY SUPPORTED QFCS To the extent that the Finance Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any hedging agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, "QFC Credit Support", and each such "QFC", a "Supported QFC"), the Parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the "U.S. Special Resolution Regimes") in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Finance Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States): (a) In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a "Covered Party") becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. (b) In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Finance Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Finance Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no – 205 – event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support. (c) As used in this Clause 44, the following terms have the following meanings: (i) "BHC Act Affiliate" of a party means an "affiliate" (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party.

(iv) "QFC" has the meaning assigned to the term "qualified financial contract" in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D). 45. GOVERNING LAW (a) This Agreement and any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with it are governed by English law. (b) Without prejudice to paragraph (a) above, Schedule 15 (Information Undertakings), Schedule 16 (Incurrence Covenants) and Schedule 17 (Events of Default) (in each case, including the terms defined therein) shall be interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York (without prejudice to the fact that this Agreement is governed by English law). 46. ENFORCEMENT 46.1 Jurisdiction of English courts (a) The courts of England have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute arising out of or in connection with this Agreement (including a dispute relating to the existence, validity or termination of this Agreement or any non-contractual obligation arising out of or in connection with this Agreement) (a "Dispute"). (b) The Parties agree that the courts of England are the most appropriate and convenient courts to settle Disputes and accordingly no Party will argue to the contrary. 46.2 Service of process (a) Without prejudice to any other mode of service allowed under any relevant law, each Obligor (other than an Obligor incorporated in England and Wales): (i) irrevocably appoints Borr Galar (UK) Limited ("Borr Galar") as its agent for service of process in relation to any proceedings before the English courts

– 29 – Schedule 11 AGREED SECURITY PRINCIPLES 1. Agreed Security Principles (a) The guarantees and security to be provided will be given in accordance with the agreed security principles set out herein (the "Agreed Security Principles"). This Schedule addresses the manner in which the Agreed Security Principles will impact on the guarantees and security proposed to be taken in relation to this transaction. (b) The Agreed Security Principles embody a recognition by all parties that there may be certain legal and practical difficulties in obtaining effective or commercially reasonable guarantees and/or security from relevant members of the Group. In particular: (i) general legal and statutory limitations, such as regulatory restrictions, financial assistance, corporate benefit, capital maintenance, equity subordination, fraudulent preference, "interest stripping", "controlled foreign corporation", transfer pricing or "thin capitalisation" rules, tax restrictions, "fiscal unity" rules, retention of title claims and similar principles may prohibit, restrict or otherwise limit the ability of a member of the Group to provide a guarantee or security or may require that the guarantee or security be limited by an amount or otherwise. If any such limit applies, the guarantees and security provided (or the enforceability thereof) will be limited to the maximum amount which the relevant member of the Group may provide having regard to applicable law (including any jurisprudence) or otherwise (e.g. by market standard limitation language) and, subject to these Agreed Security Principles, the relevant member of the Group shall use commercially reasonable endeavours (not involving the payment of money or incurrence of any external expenses) to overcome any such limitation and any such limitations will not (generally or definitively) free the respective Obligor from any payment or other obligations under the respective security or guarantee, but merely postpone the due date of the respective obligations until such time as the obligations may again be performed without such limitations or subject to less stringent limitations; (ii) certain supervisory board, works council, regulator or regulatory board (or equivalent), or another external body's or person's consent may be required to enable a member of the Group to provide a guarantee or security. Such guarantee and/or security shall not be required unless such consent has been received provided that commercially reasonable endeavours for a maximum period of twenty (20) Business Days (not involving the payment of money or incurrence of any external expenses) have been used by the relevant member of the Group to obtain the relevant consent to the extent permissible by law and regulation and such consent has no material adverse impact on commercial relationships with third parties (in each case if the Security Agent (acting on instructions in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement, with – 30 – the relevant instructing parties being required to take into account the Company's view on any such potential impact), reasonably requests the Company to do so); (iii) a key factor in determining whether or not a guarantee or security shall be taken (and the extent of the perfection and/or registration of such security) is the applicable time and cost to the Group (including, without limitation, adverse effects in relation to taxes, interest deductibility and stamp duty, notarisation and registration fees) which shall not be disproportionate to the benefit accruing to the banks of obtaining such guarantee, security or perfection; (iv) where there is material incremental cost involved in creating security over all assets owned by an Obligor in a particular category the principle stated at paragraph (iii) above shall apply and, subject to these Agreed Security Principles, only the material assets in that category shall be subject to security; (v) the maximum guaranteed or secured amount may be limited to minimise stamp duty, notarisation, registration or other applicable fees, taxes and duties where the benefit of increasing the guaranteed or secured amount is disproportionate to the level of such fee, taxes and duties (and in any event the maximum aggregate amount payable by the Group in respect of fees, costs, expenses, disbursements and VAT relating to the provision of guarantees and security shall be limited to an amount to be agreed between the Security Agent (acting on instructions in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement) and the Company); (vi) it is acknowledged that in certain jurisdictions, it may be impossible, impractical, or disproportionately costly to create guarantees or security over certain categories of assets, in which event guarantees or security will not be taken over such assets; (vii) any assets or Obligors subject to third party arrangements permitted under the terms of this Agreement which may prevent those assets from being charged or assigned or those Obligors from giving a security or guarantee (or assets which, if charged or assigned, would give a third party the right to terminate or otherwise amend any rights, benefits and/or obligations of the Group in respect of those assets or require any member of the Group to take any action materially adverse to the interests of the Group or any member thereof) will be excluded from any relevant security document and any requirement to give security or guarantee; provided that commercially reasonable endeavours for a maximum period of twenty (20) Business Days (not involving the payment of money or incurrence of any external expenses) to obtain consent to charging any such assets shall be used by the Group if the Security Agent (acting on instructions in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement) confirms the relevant asset to be material and if, in the view of

------

![](exhibit41-sscfamendmenta131.jpg)

– 31 – the Company (acting reasonably), taking such security will have no material adverse impact on commercial relationships with third parties (or otherwise cause the Group to incur any material cost); provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing but without prejudice to the requirement to use reasonable endeavours as described, no security shall be required over (and no consent or waiver request submitted with respect to) assets, of a member of the relevant target group being acquired, which are required to support indebtedness assumed in connection with an acquisition to the extent permitted by the terms of the Finance Documents to remain outstanding following a permitted acquisition ("Acquired Indebtedness"), and no member of the target group acquired pursuant to a permitted acquisition for so long as such Acquired Indebtedness remains outstanding and is permitted to remain outstanding under the terms of this Agreement, following completion of such permitted acquisition shall be required to become a Guarantor or grant security with respect to the Facility if prevented by the terms of the documentation governing such Acquired Indebtedness or if becoming a Guarantor or the granting of security with respect to the Facility would give rise to an obligation (including any payment obligation) under or in relation thereto; (viii) members of the Group will not be required to give guarantees or enter into security documents if it is not within the legal capacity of the relevant members of the Group or if the same would conflict with the fiduciary duties of those directors or contravene any legal prohibition or regulatory condition or would result in (or in a material risk of) personal or criminal liability on the part of any director, officer or employee provided that the relevant member of the Group shall use reasonable endeavours (not involving the payment of money or incurrence of any external expenses) to overcome any such obstacle; (ix) the giving of a guarantee, the granting of security or (prior to an Acceleration Event) the perfection of the security granted will not be required if it would have a material adverse effect on the ability of the relevant Obligor to conduct its operations and business (and any requirement under the Agreed Security Principles to seek consent of any person or take or not take any other action shall be subject to this paragraph (ix)); (x) to the extent possible, all security shall be given in favour of the Security Agent as one set of security interests and not in favour of the Finance Parties individually (provided that "Parallel Debt" provisions may be used where necessary and such provisions will be contained in the Intercreditor Agreement and not the individual security documents, unless agreed by the Company and the Security Agent (acting on instructions in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement) as being required to avoid an amendment to the Intercreditor Agreement); – 32 – (xi) no title investigations or surveys of any kind will be required and no title insurance will be required; (xii) to the extent not strictly required by local law, no action will be required to be taken in relation to the guarantees or security when any Lender assigns or transfers any of its participation to a new Lender (and notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no member of the Group shall bear or otherwise be liable for any taxes, any notarial, registration or perfection fees or any other costs, fees or expenses that result from any assignment or transfer by a Finance Party); (xiii) no perfection action will be required in jurisdictions where an Obligor is not located but perfection action may be required in the jurisdiction of one Obligor in relation to security granted by another Obligor located in a different jurisdiction; (xiv) all share security in respect of Share Security Jurisdictions granted in accordance with the Agreed Security Principles over the shares in a Restricted Subsidiary shall be governed by the law of incorporation of that Restricted Subsidiary; (xv) information (such as lists of receivables or bank account statements) will be provided if and only to the extent required by local law to be provided to perfect or register the relevant security interests and, unless required to be provided by local law more frequently, will be provided upon reasonable written request by the Security Agent if an Acceleration Event has occurred and is continuing; (xvi) security will, where possible and practical, automatically create security over future assets of the same type as those already secured; where local law requires supplemental pledges to be delivered in respect of future acquired assets in order for effective security to be created over that class of asset, such supplemental pledges shall be provided only upon the reasonable written request by the Security Agent (acting on instructions in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement) and at intervals no more frequently than annually, except if an Acceleration Event is continuing; (xvii) guarantees and security will not be required from or over, or over the assets of, any joint venture or similar arrangement or any minority interest; (xviii) no guarantee or security shall guarantee or secure any "Excluded Swap Obligations" defined in accordance with the LSTA Market Advisory Update dated February 15, 2013 entitled "Swap Regulations' Implications for Loan Documentation", and any update thereto by the LSTA; (xix) in no event shall control agreements or perfection by control or similar arrangements be required with respect to any assets (including deposit or securities accounts);

Covenant Suspension During any period of time that:(a) the Original Senior Secured Notes have Investment Grade Ratings from at least two Rating Agencies, and (b) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under this Agreement, (i) the Loan Guarantees will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged (to the extent that guarantees by the Guarantors of all other Pari Passu Indebtedness are substantially concurrently released), (ii) the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero, and (iii) the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to the following provisions of this Agreement: (a) Section 1 (Limitation on Debt and Issuance of Preferred Stock); (b) Section 2 (Limitation on Restricted Payments); (c) Section 4 (Limitation on Asset Sales); (d) Section 5 (Limitation on Sale and Leaseback Transactions); (e) Section 6 (Limitation on Accounts Receivables Facilities); – 76 – (f) Section 7 (Limitation on Restrictions on Distributions from Restricted Subsidiaries); (g) Section 8 (Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates); and (h) sub-paragraph (a)(iii) of Section 9 (Successors); (collectively, the "Suspended Covenants" and the period of time that the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the Suspended Covenants, the "Suspension Period"). In the event that the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the Suspended Covenants for any period of time as a result of the preceding sentence and, subsequently, two or more of the Rating Agencies withdraws its ratings or downgrades the ratings assigned to the Original Senior Secured Notes below the required Investment Grade Ratings (the date of such ratings withdrawal or downgrade, the "Reversion Date"), then the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries will thereafter again be subject to the Suspended Covenants for all periods after the Reversion Date and, furthermore, for the purpose of compliance with the provisions of Section 2 (Limitation on Restricted Payments) with respect to Restricted Payments made after the Reversion Date, the amount of Restricted Payments made shall be calculated as though Section 2 (Limitation on Restricted Payments) had been in effect prior to, but not during, the Suspension Period, provided that there will not be deemed to have occurred a Default or Event of Default with respect to that covenant during the Suspension Period (or after that time based solely on events that occurred during that time). The Company will promptly give the Agent written notice of any such suspension of covenants. In the absence of such notice, the Agent shall assume that the Suspended Covenants are in full force and effect. Solely for the purpose of determining the amount of Permitted Liens under Section 3 (Limitation on Liens) during any Suspension Period and without limiting the Company's or any Restricted Subsidiary's ability to Incur Debt during any Suspension Period, to the extent that calculations in Section 3 (Limitation on Liens) refer to Section 1 (Limitation on Debt and Issuance of Preferred Stock) such calculations shall be made as though Section 1 (Limitation on Debt and Issuance of Preferred Stock) remains in effect during the Suspension Period. On the Reversion Date, all Debt Incurred during the Suspension Period will be classified to have been Incurred pursuant to sub-paragraph (x) of the definition of "Permitted Debt" in the second paragraph of Section 1 (Limitation on Debt and Issuance of Preferred Stock). For purposes of determining compliance with Section 4 (Limitation on Asset Sales), on the Reversion Date, the Net Available Cash from all Asset Sales not applied in accordance with the covenant will be deemed to be reset to zero. On the Reversion Date, for purposes of determining compliance with Section 8 (Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates), all agreements and arrangements entered into by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary with an Affiliate of the Company during the Suspension Period shall be deemed to have been entered into pursuant to sub- paragraph (f) of the second paragraph of 8 (Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates), and for purposes of determining compliance with Section 7 (Limitation on Restrictions on Distributions from Restricted Subsidiaries), all contracts entered into during the

– 77 – Suspension Period that contain any of the restrictions contemplated by such covenant shall be deemed to have been entered into pursuant to sub-paragraph (e) of the second paragraph of 8 (Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates). No Subsidiaries may be designated as Unrestricted Subsidiaries during any Suspension Period. Notwithstanding that the Suspended Covenants may be reinstated, no Default or Event of Default will be deemed to have occurred as a result of any failure to comply with the Suspended Covenants during any Suspension Period and the Company and any Subsidiary of the Company will be permitted, without causing a Default or Event of Default or breach of any of the Suspended Covenants (notwithstanding the reinstatement thereof) under this Agreement, to honor, comply with or otherwise perform any contractual commitments or obligations entered into during a Suspension Period following a Reversion Date and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby; provided that, to the extent any such commitment or obligation results in the making of a Restricted Payment, such Restricted Payment shall be made under Section 2 (Limitation on Restricted Payments) and, if not permitted by such covenant, such Restricted Payment shall be deemed permitted by sub- paragraph (c) of the first paragraph of Section 2 (Limitation on Restricted Payments) and shall be deducted for purposes of calculating the amount pursuant to such sub-paragraph (c) (which may not be less than zero). The Company will give the Agent written notice of any occurrence of a Reversion Date. After any such notice of the occurrence of a Reversion Date, the Agent shall assume that the Suspended Covenants apply and are in full force and effect. 11. Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries The Company may designate any Subsidiary of the Company (including any newly acquired or newly formed Subsidiary or a Person becoming a Subsidiary through merger, amalgamation, consolidation or other business combination transaction, or Investment therein, but excluding the Company) to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if: (a) the Subsidiary to be so designated does not own any Capital Stock or Debt of, or own or hold any Lien on any Property of, the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary, (b) immediately before and immediately after such designation, no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and (c) any of the following: (i) the Subsidiary to be so designated has total assets of $1,000 or less, or (ii) if the Subsidiary has consolidated assets greater than $1,000, then the designation would be permitted under Section 2 (Limitation on Restricted Payments). Unless so designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, any Person that becomes a Subsidiary of the Company will be classified as a Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that the Subsidiary shall not be designated a Restricted Subsidiary and shall be automatically – 78 – classified as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if the Person is a Subsidiary of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

Each of the releases set forth above shall be effected by the Agent and the Security Agent without the consent of the Lenders and will not require any other action or consent on the part of the Agent and the Security Agent. None of the Company, Guarantors or the Agent or the Security Agent will be required to make a notation on the Senior Notes to reflect any such release, termination or discharge. The Company may in its sole discretion elect to have any Loan Guarantee remain in place, as opposed to being released.

LETTERS OF CREDIT 7.1 Immediately Payable (a) If a Letter of Credit or any amount outstanding under a Letter of Credit becomes immediately payable under this Agreement, the Borrower that requested the issue of the Letter of Credit (or on whose behalf the Company requested) must (in accordance with Clause 7.2 (Claims under a Letter of Credit) or otherwise) repay or prepay that Letter of Credit or that amount promptly on demand by the relevant Issuing Bank. (b) Each Issuing Bank shall immediately notify the Agent of any demand received by it under and in accordance with any Letter of Credit (including details of the Letter of Credit under which such demand has been received and the amount demanded).

(c) Each Borrower which requests a Letter of Credit must within five Business Days of demand pay to the Agent for the account of the relevant Issuing Bank an amount equal to the amount of any claim under that Letter of Credit (which, if denominated in an Optional Currency, shall be payable to the Agent in dollars in an amount calculated using the Spot Rate of Exchange for that Optional Currency). (d) In respect of Letters of Credit utilised under a Facility, on receipt of any demand under paragraph (a) of Clause 7.1 (Immediately Payable) the relevant Borrower shall (unless the Company notifies the Agent otherwise) be deemed to have delivered to the Agent a duly completed Utilisation Request requesting a Loan in dollars (an "LC Loan"): (i) in an amount equal to the amount of the relevant claim (if applicable, net of any cash cover provided by the relevant Borrower and, if that claim is denominated in an Optional Currency, the principal amount of that LC Loan in dollars calculated using the Spot Rate of Exchange for that Optional Currency); (ii) for an Interest Period of three Months or such other period of up to six Months as notified by the relevant Borrower or the Company to the Agent prior to the Utilisation Date; and (iii) with a Utilisation Date falling five Business Days after the date of receipt of the relevant demand, and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Lenders shall be required to comply with their obligations under Clause 5.4 (Lenders' participation) in respect of such LC Loan. (e) The proceeds of any such Loan shall be used to pay the relevant claim. (f) Each Borrower and each Lender acknowledges that each Issuing Bank: (i) is not obliged to carry out any investigation or seek any confirmation from any other person before paying a claim; and (ii) deals in documents only and will not be concerned with the legality of a claim or any underlying transaction or any available set-off, counterclaim or other defence of any person; and

(g) The obligations of each Borrower and each Lender under this Clause 7.2 will not be affected by: (i) the sufficiency, accuracy or genuineness of any claim or any other document; or (ii) any incapacity of, or limitation on the powers of, any person signing a claim or other document. 7.3 Indemnities (a) A Borrower must promptly on demand indemnify an Issuing Bank against any loss or liability which that Issuing Bank incurs under or in connection with any Letter of Credit requested by (or on behalf of) it, except to the extent that the loss or liability is caused by the negligence or wilful misconduct of the Issuing Bank. (b) Each Lender must promptly on demand indemnify an Issuing Bank against its share of any loss or liability which that Issuing Bank incurs under or in connection with any Letter of Credit and which at the date of demand has not been paid for by an Obligor, except to the extent that the loss or liability is caused by the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Issuing Bank. (c) A Lender's share of the liability or loss referred to in paragraph (b) above will be its share of such Letter of Credit on the Utilisation Date (as determined in accordance with paragraph (a) of Clause 6.5 (Issue of Letter of Credit)) for that Letter of Credit, adjusted to reflect any subsequent assignment or transfer in accordance with Clause 29 (Changes to the Lenders) (an "LC Proportion"). (d) The relevant Borrower must promptly on demand reimburse any Lender for any payment it makes to the relevant Issuing Bank under this Clause 7.3. (e) The obligations of each Borrower and Lender under this Clause 7.3 are continuing obligations and will extend to the ultimate balance of all sums payable by that Borrower or Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in whole or in part. (f) If a Borrower has provided cash cover in respect of a Lender's participation in a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall seek reimbursement from that cash cover before making a demand of that Lender under paragraph (b) above. Any recovery made by an Issuing Bank pursuant to that cash cover will reduce that Lender's liability under paragraph (b) above. (g) The obligations of each Borrower and Lender under this Clause 7.3 will not be affected by any act, omission or thing which, but for this provision, would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause 7.3 (whether or not known to it or any other person). This includes: – 70 – #4938-4803-4138v16 (i) any time or waiver granted to, or composition with, any person; (ii) any release of any person under the terms of any composition or arrangement; (iii) the taking, variation, compromise, exchange, renewal or release of, or refusal or neglect to perfect, take up or enforce, any rights against, or security over assets of, any person; (iv) any non-presentation or non-observance of any formality or other requirement in respect of any instrument or any failure to realise the full value of any security; (v) any incapacity or lack of power, authority or legal personality of or dissolution or change in the members or status of any person; (vi) any amendment (however fundamental) of a Finance Document or any other document or security; or (vii) any unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of any obligation of any person under any Finance Document or any other document or security. 7.4 Cash collateral by Non-Acceptable LC Lender (a) If, at any time, a Lender under a Facility is a Non-Acceptable LC Lender, the relevant Issuing Bank may, by notice to that Lender, request that Lender to pay and that Lender shall pay, on or prior to the date falling three Business Days after the request by the Issuing Bank, an amount equal to that Lender's LC Proportion of the outstanding (or proposed) amount of a Letter of Credit and in the currency of that Letter of Credit to an interest-bearing account held in the name of that Lender with the Issuing Bank. (b) The Non-Acceptable LC Lender to whom a request has been made in accordance with paragraph (a) above shall enter into a security document or other form of collateral arrangement over the account, in form and substance satisfactory to the Issuing Bank, as collateral for any amounts due and payable under the Finance Documents by that Lender to the Issuing Bank in respect of that Letter of Credit. (c) Until no amount is or may be outstanding under that Letter of Credit, withdrawals from the account may only be made to pay to the Issuing Bank amounts due and payable to the Issuing Bank by the Non-Acceptable LC Lender under the Finance Documents in respect of that Letter of Credit.

(e) Any notice received by the Agent pursuant to paragraph (d) above shall constitute notice to the relevant Issuing Bank of that Lender's status and the Agent shall, upon receiving each such notice, promptly notify the relevant Issuing Bank of that Lender's status as specified in that notice. (f) If a Lender who has provided cash collateral in accordance with this Clause 7.4: (i) ceases to be a Non-Acceptable LC Lender; and (ii) no amount is due and payable by that Lender in respect of a Letter of Credit, (iii) that Lender may, at any time it is not a Non-Acceptable LC Lender, by notice to the relevant Issuing Bank request that an amount equal to the amount of the cash provided by it as collateral in respect of that Letter of Credit (together with any accrued interest) standing to the credit of the relevant account held with the Issuing Bank be returned to it and the Issuing Bank shall pay that amount to the Lender within three Business Days after the request from the Lender (and shall cooperate with the Lender in order to procure that the relevant security or collateral arrangement is released and discharged). 7.5 Cash cover by the Borrower (a) If a Lender which is a Non-Acceptable LC Lender fails to provide cash collateral (or notifies the relevant Issuing Bank that it will not provide cash collateral) in accordance with Clause 7.4 (Cash collateral by Non-Acceptable LC Lender) a Borrower shall provide cash cover to an account with the relevant Issuing Bank in an amount equal to that Lender's LC Proportion of the outstanding amount of that Letter of Credit and in the currency of that Letter of Credit.

(c) The relevant Lender's LC Proportion in respect of that Letter of Credit will remain (but that Lender's obligations in relation to that Letter of Credit may be satisfied in accordance with paragraph (i)(ii) of Clause 1.2 (Construction)). However, the relevant Borrower's obligation to pay any Letter of Credit fee in relation to the – 72 – #4938-4803-4138v16 relevant Letter of Credit to the Agent (for the account of that Lender) in accordance with paragraph (b) of Clause 17.8 (Fees in respect of Letters of Credit) will be reduced proportionately as from the date on which it provides cash cover (and for so long as the relevant amount of cash cover continues to stand as collateral). (d) The relevant Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Agent of the extent to which a Borrower provides cash cover pursuant to this Clause 7.5 and of any change in the amount of cash cover so provided. 7.6 Lender as Issuing Bank A Lender which is also an Issuing Bank shall be treated as a separate entity in those capacities and capable, as a Lender, of contracting with itself as an Issuing Bank. 7.7 Rights of contribution No Obligor will be entitled to any right of contribution or indemnity from any Finance Party in respect of any payment it may make under this Clause 7. 7.8 Continuation of Letters of Credit (a) Each Letter of Credit shall be prepaid and cancelled on the Termination Date (or such earlier date in accordance with this Agreement), provided that a Borrower (or an Affiliate of a Borrower) and the relevant Issuing Bank may, as between themselves only, agree that any Letter of Credit will continue to remain available on a bilateral basis following the Termination Date applicable to the relevant Facility or, as the case may be, the date the relevant Commitments are otherwise cancelled under this Agreement. (b) If any arrangement contemplated in paragraph (a) above is to occur, each relevant Borrower and the relevant Issuing Bank shall each confirm that to be the case in writing to the Agent. Upon such Termination Date or, as the case may be, date of cancellation, any such facility shall continue as between the said entities on a bilateral basis and not as part of, or under, the Finance Documents (a "Bilateral Letter of Credit"). Save for any rights and obligations against any Finance Party under the Finance Documents arising prior to such Termination Date or, as the case may be, date of cancellation, no such rights or obligations in respect of such Bilateral Letter of Credit shall, as between the Finance Parties, continue and the Transaction Security shall not support any such Letter of Credit in respect of any matters that arise after such Termination Date or, as the case may be, date of cancellation. 8. OPTIONAL CURRENCIES 8.1 Selection of currency A Borrower (or the Company on its behalf) shall select the currency of an Original Revolving Facility Loan or an Additional Facility Loan in a Utilisation Request. 8.2 Unavailability of a currency If before the Specified Time:

In this event, any Lender that gives notice pursuant to this Clause 8.2 will be required to participate in the Loan in the Base Currency (in an amount equal to that Lender's proportion of the Base Currency Amount, or in respect of a Rollover Utilisation, an amount equal to that Lender's proportion of the Base Currency Amount of the Rollover Utilisation that is due to be made) and its participation will be treated as a separate Loan denominated in the Base Currency during that Interest Period. 8.3 Agent's calculations Each Lender's participation in a Loan will be determined in accordance with paragraph (b) of Clause 5.4 (Lenders' participation). 9. ANCILLARY FACILITIES 9.1 Type of Facility An Ancillary Facility may be by way of any of the following (or any combination of the following): (a) an overdraft, cheque clearing, automatic payment or other current account facility; (b) a guarantee, bonding or documentary or stand-by letter of credit facility; (c) a short term loan facility; (d) a derivatives facility; (e) a foreign exchange facility; and (f) any other facility or accommodation as may be required or desirable in connection with the business of the Group and which is agreed by the Company and the relevant Ancillary Lender. 9.2 Availability (a) If the Company and a Lender agree and except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Lender may provide an Ancillary Facility on a bilateral basis in place of all or part of that Lender's unutilised Commitment (which shall (except for the purposes of determining the Majority Lenders and of Clause 41.7 (Replacement of Lender)) be reduced by the amount of the Ancillary Commitment under that Ancillary Facility). – 74 – #4938-4803-4138v16 (b) An Ancillary Facility shall not be made available unless at least three Business Days prior to the Ancillary Commencement Date for that Ancillary Facility, the Agent has received from the Company a notice in writing of the establishment of that Ancillary Facility and specifying: (i) the Borrower(s) (or, subject to Clause 9.9 (Affiliates of Borrowers), Affiliate(s) of a Borrower) which may use that Ancillary Facility; (ii) the Ancillary Commencement Date and expiry date of that Ancillary Facility; (A) the type or types of Ancillary Facility to be provided; (B) the Ancillary Lender; (C) the amount of the Ancillary Commitment, the maximum amount of the Ancillary Facility and, if the Ancillary Facility is an overdraft facility comprising more than one account its maximum gross amount (that amount being the "Designated Gross Amount") and its maximum net amount (that amount being the "Designated Net Amount"); and (D) the currency or currencies of that Ancillary Facility (if not denominated in the Base Currency), without prejudice to the rights of the Agent to so request, any other information which the Agent may reasonably request in relation to that Ancillary Facility. (c) The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender under the relevant Facility of the establishment of an Ancillary Facility. (d) No amendment or waiver of any term of an Ancillary Facility shall require the consent of any Finance Party other than the relevant Ancillary Lender unless such amendment or waiver itself relates to or gives rise to a matter which would require an amendment of or under this Agreement (including under this Clause). In such a case, the provisions of this Agreement with regard to amendments and waivers will apply. (e) Subject to compliance with paragraph (b) above; (i) the Lender concerned will become an Ancillary Lender; and (ii) the Ancillary Facility will be available, with effect from the date agreed by the Company and the Ancillary Lender. 9.3 Terms of Ancillary Facilities (a) Except as provided in paragraph (b) below, the terms of any Ancillary Facility will be those agreed by the relevant Ancillary Lender and the Company.

(f) In relation to an Ancillary Facility which comprises an overdraft facility where a Designated Net Amount has been established, the Ancillary Lender providing that Ancillary Facility shall only be obliged to take into account for the purposes of calculating compliance with the Designated Net Amount those credit balances

"Total Revolving Outstandings" means the aggregate of all Revolving Outstandings. (b) If a Declared Default occurs, each Lender and each Ancillary Lender shall promptly adjust by corresponding transfers (to the extent necessary) of their claims in respect of amounts outstanding to them under the relevant Facility and each Ancillary Facility to ensure that after such transfers the Revolving Outstandings of each Lender bear the same proportion to the relevant Total Revolving Outstandings as such Lender's relevant Commitment bears to the relevant Total Commitments, each as at the date the notice of such Declared Default is served under Clause 28.7 (Acceleration). (c) If an amount outstanding under an Ancillary Facility is a contingent liability and that contingent liability becomes an actual liability or is reduced to zero after the original adjustment is made under paragraph (a) above, then each Lender and Ancillary Lender will make a further adjustment by corresponding transfers (to the extent necessary) to put themselves in the position they would have been in had the original adjustment been determined by reference to the actual liability or, as the case may be, zero liability and not the contingent liability. – 80 – #4938-4803-4138v16 (d) Prior to the application of the provisions of paragraph (a) of this Clause 9.12, an Ancillary Lender that has provided an overdraft comprising more than one account under an Ancillary Facility shall set-off any liabilities owing to it under such overdraft facility against credit balances on any account comprised in such overdraft facility. (e) All calculation to be made pursuant to this Clause 9.12 shall be made by the Agent based upon information provided to it by the Lenders and Ancillary Lenders. 9.13 Continuation of Ancillary Facilities (a) Each Ancillary Facility shall be prepaid and cancelled on the Termination Date (or such earlier date in accordance with this Agreement), provided that a Borrower (or an Affiliate of a Borrower) and an Ancillary Lender may, as between themselves only, agree that any Ancillary Facilities will continue to remain available on a bilateral basis following the Termination Date applicable to the relevant Facility or, as the case may be, the date the relevant Commitments are otherwise cancelled under this Agreement. (b) If any arrangement contemplated in paragraph (a) above is to occur, each relevant Borrower and the Ancillary Lender shall each confirm that to be the case in writing to the Agent. Upon such Termination Date or, as the case may be, date of cancellation, any such facility shall continue as between the said entities on a bilateral basis and not as part of, or under, the Finance Documents (a "Bilateral Facility"). Save for any rights and obligations against any Finance Party under the Finance Documents arising prior to such Termination Date or, as the case may be, date of cancellation, no such rights or obligations in respect of such Bilateral Facility shall, as between the Finance Parties, continue and the Transaction Security shall not support any such facility in respect of any matters that arise after such Termination Date or, as the case may be, date of cancellation. 10. REPAYMENT 10.1 Repayment of Loans (a) Subject to paragraph (b) below, each Borrower which has drawn a Loan shall repay that Loan on the last day of its Interest Period. (b) Without prejudice to each Borrower's obligation under paragraph (a) above, if one or more Loans are to be made available to a Borrower: (i) on the same day that a maturing Loan is due to be repaid by that Borrower; (ii) in the same currency as the maturing Loan (unless it arose as a result of the operation of Clause 8.2 (Unavailability of a currency)); (iii) in whole or in part for the purpose of refinancing the maturing Loan; and (iv) the proportion borne by each Lender's participation in the maturing Loan to the amount of that maturing Loan is the same as the proportion borne by that

(c) At any time when a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, the maturity date of each of the participations of that Lender in the Loans then outstanding will be automatically extended to the Termination Date in relation to the Facility and will be treated as separate Loans (the "Separate Loans") denominated in the currency in which the relevant participations are outstanding. (d) A Borrower to whom a Separate Loan is outstanding may prepay that Loan by giving three Business Days' prior notice to the Agent. The Agent will forward a copy of a prepayment notice received in accordance with this paragraph (d) to the Defaulting Lender concerned as soon as practicable on receipt.

(b) Subject to the other terms of this Agreement, any amounts repaid under paragraph (a) above may be re-utilised. (c) Subject to Clause 7.8 (Continuation of Letters of Credit), any Letter of Credit still outstanding on the Termination Date for a Facility shall be repaid on that date. 11. ILLEGALITY, VOLUNTARY PREPAYMENT AND CANCELLATION 11.1 Illegality If after the date of this Agreement (or, if later, the date the relevant Lender became a Party) it becomes unlawful in any applicable jurisdiction for a Lender to perform any of its obligations as contemplated by this Agreement or to fund, issue or maintain its Commitment or participation in any Utilisation or it becomes contrary to Sanctions to do the same: (a) that Lender, shall promptly notify the Agent upon becoming aware of that event; (b) upon the Agent notifying the Company, the Commitment of that Lender will be immediately cancelled to the extent necessary to comply with laws, or, at the Company's request, the Lender's Commitment shall be transferred to another person pursuant to Clause 41.7 (Replacement of Lender); and (c) to the extent that Lender's participation has not been transferred pursuant to Clause 41.7 (Replacement of Lender), each Borrower shall repay that Lender's participation in the Utilisations made to that Borrower on the last day of the Interest Period for each Utilisation occurring after the Agent has notified the Company or, if earlier, the date specified by the Lender in the notice delivered to the Agent (being no earlier than the last day of any applicable grace period permitted by law) and that Lender's corresponding Commitment(s) shall be cancelled in the amount of the participations repaid. 11.2 Sanctions If any Relevant Person or any direct or indirect Subsidiary of any Relevant Person has violated any Sanctions or has become a Restricted Party: (a) the Company shall promptly notify the Agent thereof; and (b) upon receipt of such notice, each Lender shall have the right to cancel its Commitments and demand the Borrowers repay any Loans owing by it together with accrued interest, and all other amounts accrued under the Finance Documents on the date specified by the Agent in the notice delivered to the Borrowers, provided

Any interest accruing under this Clause 14.3 shall be immediately payable by the Company or the Obligor on demand by the Agent. (b) If any overdue amount consists of all or part of a Term Rate Loan and which became due on a day which was not the last day of an Interest Period relating to that Loan: (i) the first Interest Period for that overdue amount shall have a duration equal to the unexpired portion of the current Interest Period relating to that Loan; and (ii) the rate of interest applying to the overdue amount during that first Interest Period shall be [\*\*\*] per cent.

(b) Subject to this Clause 15, a Borrower (or the Company) may select an Interest Period of (i) 1, 3 or 6 Months, provided that on the Quotation Day for such a Loan, a Screen Rate (or in the case of a USD Term Rate Loan, Term SOFR or Interpolated Term SOFR) is available for such tenor in the relevant currency; or (ii) if the Loan is in a Compounded Rate Currency, the Interest Periods specified in respect of that currency in the applicable Compounded Rate Terms; or (iii) such other period agreed between the Company and the Agent, acting on the instructions of all of the Lenders, acting reasonably in relation to the relevant Loan for any other period. (c) An Interest Period for a Loan shall not extend beyond the Termination Date applicable to its Facility. (d) A Loan has one Interest Period only. 15.2 Non-Business Days (a) Other than where paragraph (b) applies, if an Interest Period would otherwise end on a day which is not a Business Day, that Interest Period will instead end on the next Business Day in that calendar month (if there is one) or the preceding Business Day (if there is not). (b) If the Loan is in a Compounded Rate Currency and there are rules specified as "Business Day Conventions" for that currency in the applicable Compounded Rate Terms, those rules shall apply to each Interest Period for that Loan. 16. CHANGES TO THE CALCULATION OF INTEREST 16.1 Unavailability of Screen Rate (a) Interpolated Screen Rate: If no Screen Rate is available for EURIBOR for the Interest Period of a Loan, the applicable EURIBOR shall be the Interpolated Screen Rate for a period equal in length to the Interest Period of that Loan. (b) Shortened Interest Period: If no Screen Rate is available for EURIBOR for: (i) the currency of a Loan; or – 90 – #4938-4803-4138v16 (ii) the Interest Period of a Loan and it is not possible to calculate the Interpolated Screen Rate, the Interest Period of that Loan shall (if it is longer than the applicable Fallback Interest Period) be shortened to the applicable Fallback Interest Period and the applicable EURIBOR for that shortened Interest Period shall be determined pursuant to the definition of EURIBOR (as applicable). (c) Shortened Interest Period and Historic Screen Rate: If the Interest Period of a Loan is, after giving effect to paragraph (b) above, either the applicable Fallback Interest Period or shorter than the applicable Fallback Interest Period and, in either case, no Screen Rate is available for EURIBOR for: (i) the currency of that Loan; or (ii) the Interest Period of that Loan and it is not possible to calculate the Interpolated Screen Rate, the applicable EURIBOR shall be the Historic Screen Rate for that Loan. (d) Shortened Interest Period and Interpolated Historic Screen Rate: If paragraph (c) above applies but no Historic Screen Rate is available for the Interest Period of the Loan, the applicable EURIBOR shall be the Interpolated Historic Screen Rate for a period equal in length to the Interest Period of that Loan. (e) Reference Bank Rate: if paragraph (d) above applies but it is not possible to calculate the Interpolated Historic Screen Rate, the Interest Period of that Loan shall, if it has been shortened pursuant to paragraph (b) above, revert to its previous length and the applicable EURIBOR shall be the Reference Bank Rate as of the Specified Time for the currency of that Loan and for a period equal in length to the Interest Period of that Loan. (f) Cost of funds: if paragraph (e) above applies but no Reference Bank Rate is available for the relevant currency or Interest Period there shall be no EURIBOR for that Loan and Clause 16.3 (Cost of Funds) shall apply to that Loan for that Interest Period. 16.2 Market disruption If, in relation to a Term Rate Loan (other than a USD Term Rate Loan), before close of business in London on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period, the Agent receives notifications from a Lender or Lenders whose participations in a Term Rate Loan (other than a USD Term Rate Loan) exceed 40 per cent. of that Term Rate Loan (other than a USD Term Rate Loan) that the cost to it of funding its participation in that Loan from the wholesale market or such other source it may reasonably select for the relevant currency would be in excess of EURIBOR then Clause 16.3 (Cost of Funds) shall apply to that Loan for the relevant Interest Period. For the avoidance of doubt, this Clause 16.2 shall not apply to any USD Term Rate Loan.

(b) If a New Lender, an Increase Lender or an Additional Facility Lender fails to indicate its status in respect of a UK Borrower in accordance with this Clause 18.5 then such New Lender, Increase Lender or Additional Facility Lender shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement (including by each Obligor) as if it is not a UK Qualifying Lender until such time as it notifies the Agent or the Company which category applies (and the Agent, upon receipt of such notification, shall inform the Company). For the avoidance of doubt, a Transfer Certificate, Assignment Agreement, Increase Confirmation or Additional Facility Lender Accession Letter shall not be invalidated by any failure of a Lender to comply with this Clause 18.5. 18.6 Stamp taxes The Company shall pay and, within 10 Business Days of demand by the Agent, indemnify each Finance Party against any cost, loss or liability that Finance Party incurs in relation to all stamp duty, registration and other similar Taxes payable in respect of any Finance Document except (otherwise than: (i) at a time when an Event of Default is continuing; or (ii) at the request of an Obligor, including pursuant to Clause 21 (Mitigation by the Lenders)) for any such Tax payable: (a) in respect of an assignment or, transfer or sub-participation of a Loan (or part thereof) by that Finance Party; and (b) upon a voluntary registration made by any Party if such registration is not necessary to evidence, prove, maintain, enforce, compel or otherwise assert the rights of such Party or obligations of another Party under a Finance Document. 18.7 VAT (a) All amounts expressed to be payable under a Finance Document by any Party to a Finance Party which (in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for a supply or supplies for VAT purposes shall be deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on such supply or supplies and accordingly, subject to paragraph (b) below if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply or supplies made by any Finance Party to any Party in connection with a Finance Document, and such Finance Party is required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, that – 104 – #4938-4803-4138v16 Party shall pay to the Finance Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying the consideration for that supply or supplies) an amount equal to the amount of the VAT. Any obligation of a Party to pay any amount in respect of VAT pursuant to this Clause 18 is subject to the relevant Financial Party promptly providing an appropriate VAT invoice to such Party. (b) If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party (the "Supplier") to any other Finance Party (the "Recipient") under a Finance Document, and any Party other than the Recipient (the "Relevant Party") is required by the terms of any Finance Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for that supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse or indemnify the Recipient in respect of that consideration): (i) (where the Supplier is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must also pay to the Supplier (at the same time as paying that amount) an additional amount equal to the amount of the VAT. The Recipient must (where this paragraph (i) applies) promptly pay to the Relevant Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment the Recipient receives or obtains from the relevant tax authority which the Recipient reasonably determines relates to the VAT chargeable on that supply; and (ii) (where the Recipient is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must promptly, following demand from the Recipient, pay to the Recipient an amount equal to the VAT chargeable on that supply but only to the extent that the Recipient reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority in respect of that VAT. (c) Where a Finance Document requires any Party to reimburse or indemnify a Finance Party for any costs or expenses, that Party shall reimburse or indemnify (as the case may be) the Finance Party against any VAT incurred by the Finance Party in respect of the costs or expenses, to the extent that the Finance Party reasonably determines that neither it nor any group of which it is a member for VAT purposes is entitled to credit or receive repayment in respect of the VAT from the relevant tax authority. (d) Any reference in Clause 18.7 (VAT) to any party shall, at any time when such party is treated as a member of a group for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the person who is treated a making the supply or (as appropriate) receiving the supply under the grouping rules (as provided for in Article 11 of the Council Directive 2006/112/EC (or as implemented by the relevant member state of the European Union or any other similar provision in any jurisdiction which is not a member state of the European Union)) so that a reference to a Party shall be construed as a reference to that Party or the relevant group or unity (or fiscal unity) of which that Party is a member for VAT purposes at the relevant time or the relevant member (or head) of that group or unity (or fiscal unity) at the relevant time (as the case may be).

(d) If a Party fails to confirm whether or not it is a FATCA Exempt Party or to supply forms, documentation or other information requested in accordance with paragraph (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where paragraph (c) above applies), then such Party shall be treated for the purposes of the Finance Documents (and payments under them) as if it is not a FATCA Exempt Party until such time as the Party in question provides the requested confirmation, forms, documentation or other information. 19.

Each Lender will promptly update the Participant Register on the relevant date on which the sub-participation takes effect. (e) The Lender Register and each Participant Register shall be available for inspection by the Company, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice and the Agent will provide a copy of the Lender Register and the relevant Lender shall provide a copy of any Participant Register to the Company within five Business Days of request and in any event at six monthly intervals from the date of this Agreement. (f) The entries in the Lender Register and Participant Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error, and the Obligors, the Agent and the Lenders shall treat each person whose name is recorded (i) in the Lender Register pursuant to the terms of this Agreement as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement and (ii) in the Participant Register as the owner of such sub- participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Any failure to make or update the Lender Register or Participant Register, or any error in the Lender Register or Participant Register, will not affect any Obligor's obligations in respect of the Utilisations. The Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. For the avoidance of doubt, when determining whether a person is a Lender hereto, the Agent shall have no regard to the Participant Register. (g) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably authorises the Agent to make the relevant entry in the Lender Register (and which the Agent shall do promptly) on its behalf for the purposes of this Clause 29.9 without any further consent of, or consultation with, such Party. (h) The Agent shall, upon request by an Existing Lender (as defined in Clause 29.1 (Assignments and Transfers by Lenders)) or a New Lender, confirm to that Existing Lender or New Lender whether a transfer or assignment from that Existing Lender or (as the case may be) to that New Lender has been recorded on the Lender Register (including details of the Commitment of that Existing Lender or New Lender in each Facility). 29.10 Security over Lenders' rights In addition to the other rights provided to Lenders under this Clause 29, each Lender may without consulting with or obtaining consent from the Company or any Obligor, at any time charge, assign or otherwise create Security in or over (whether by way of collateral or otherwise) all or any of its rights under any Finance Document to secure obligations of that Lender including, without limitation: – 156 – #4938-4803-4138v16 (a) any charge, assignment or other Security to secure obligations to a federal reserve or central bank; and (b) in the case of any Lender which is a fund, any charge, assignment or other Security granted to any holders (or trustee or representatives of holders) of obligations owed, or securities issued, by that Lender as security for those obligations or securities, except that no such charge, assignment or Security shall at any time: (i) release a Lender from any of its obligations under the Finance Documents or substitute the beneficiary of the relevant charge, assignment or other Security for the Lender as a party to any of the Finance Documents; or (ii) require any payments to be made by an Obligor or grant to any person any more extensive rights than those required to be made or granted to the relevant Lender under the Finance Documents. 29.11 Pro rata interest settlement (a) If the Agent has notified the Lenders that it is able to distribute interest payments on a pro rata basis to Existing Lenders and New Lenders then (in respect of any transfer pursuant to Clause 29.7 (Procedure for transfers) or any assignment pursuant to Clause 29.8 (Procedure for assignment) the Transfer Date of which, in each case, is after the date of such notification and is not on the last day of an Interest Period): (i) any interest or fees in respect of the relevant participation which are expressed to accrue by reference to the lapse of time shall continue to accrue in favour of the Existing Lender up to but excluding the Transfer Date ("Accrued Amounts") and shall become due and payable to the existing Lender (without further interest accruing on them) on the last day of the current Interest Period (or, if the Interest Period is longer than six Months, on the next of the dates which falls at six Monthly intervals after the first day of that Interest Period); and (ii) the rights assigned or transferred by the Existing Lender will not include the right to the Accrued Amounts, so that, for the avoidance of doubt: (A) when the Accrued Amounts become payable, those Accrued Amounts will be payable to the Existing Lender; and (B) the amount payable to the New Lender on that date will be the amount which would, but for the application of this Clause 29.11, have been payable to it on that date, but after deduction of the Accrued Amounts. (b) In this Clause 29.11 reference to "Interest Period" shall be construed to include a reference to any other period for accrual of fees. 29.12 Transfer, assignment and sub-participation Costs and Expenses Subject to Clause 18 (Taxes) and Clause 29.2 (Conditions of assignment or transfer), but notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement or the other Finance Documents, the

(b) For the purposes of this Clause 41.8, the Agent may assume that the following Lenders are Defaulting Lenders: (i) any Lender which has notified the Agent that it has become a Defaulting Lender; and (ii) any Lender in relation to which it is aware that any of the events or circumstances referred to in the definition of "Defaulting Lender" has occurred, unless it has received notice to the contrary from the Lender concerned (together with any supporting evidence reasonably requested by the Agent) or the Agent is otherwise aware that the Lender has ceased to be a Defaulting Lender. 41.9 Implementation of Additional Facilities and other Permitted Structural Adjustments (a) The Finance Parties acknowledge that the Company or any other member of the Group (or any of them) may exercise its right under Clause 2.2 (Additional Facilities), Clause 2.3 (Increase), Clause 41.4 (Structural Adjustment) and/or in accordance with any other applicable provisions of the Finance Documents to: (i) borrow or incur additional indebtedness (including under an Additional Facility) and/or provide guarantees, indemnities and other credit support in respect of such indebtedness; and/or (ii) refinance existing indebtedness (including under a Facility) and/or provide guarantees, indemnities and other credit support in respect of such refinancing of such indebtedness, under any existing, additional, supplemental or new financing arrangement (including by way of an Additional Facility, Permitted Structural Adjustment, refinancing, replacement, exchange, set-off, discharge or increase of any such existing, additional, supplemental or new financing arrangement) ("Additional Indebtedness") which, in any such case, is intended to rank pari passu with the – 194 – #4938-4803-4138v16 Facilities provided that the Termination Date of such Additional Indebtedness must fall on or after the Termination Date for the Original Revolving Facility as at the date of this Agreement unless the Termination Date for the Original Revolving Facility is amended (with the requisite consent of the relevant Lenders) to match that of the relevant Additional Indebtedness. (b) The Finance Parties confirm that if and to the extent such a financing or refinancing and such ranking is not prohibited by the terms of the Finance Documents, at such time, they will (at the cost of the Company) enter into such documentation as may be necessary to ensure that any obligations and liabilities incurred by a member of the Group in respect of such Additional Indebtedness will have the ranking permitted to be conferred upon it in accordance with the Finance Documents provided that any release of Transaction Security in connection therewith is, subject to the Agreed Security Principles, coupled with a substantially simultaneous re- granting on substantially the same terms. (c) The Company agrees that, to the extent any intercreditor agreement or any security document in respect of the obligations of a member of the Group under any of the Finance Documents is entered into accordance with this Clause 41.9, it will designate such intercreditor agreement and security document as a Finance Document under this Agreement. The Finance Parties hereby irrevocably instruct and authorise the Agent to agree to such designation. (d) Each Finance Party agrees that it shall: (i) promptly co-operate with the Company with a view to satisfying the conditions in this Clause 41.9 in respect of any Additional Indebtedness; and (ii) promptly execute (including at the reasonable request of the Company or the Agent each acting reasonably) all such Relevant Documents, take such other actions and give such instructions to the Agent as may reasonably be required, in each case, in connection with the incurrence or borrowing of such Additional Indebtedness in accordance with this Clause 41.9. (e) The Agent is irrevocably authorised and instructed by the Finance Parties that it acts as their agent to execute on their behalf any such Relevant Document or take any other action set out in or in connection with the provisions of this Clause 41.9 without the requirement for any further authorisation or consent from such Finance Parties which shall be effective and binding on all Finance Parties upon the execution thereof by the Obligors and the Agent. In the event that any of the Finance Parties is not entitled to grant to the Agent the authority referred to in this Clause it shall be obliged to appear with the Agent, upon the request of the Agent, to formalise any actions or measures that are required. By virtue of this Agreement, each of the Finance Parties shall be obliged to cooperate with the Agent, including to participate in the negotiation and execution of the documents, either in public or private, that may be required for the execution and effectiveness of the provisions contained in this Agreement or any other Finance Document.

Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

ENFORCEMENT 46.1 Jurisdiction of English courts (a) The courts of England have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute arising out of or in connection with this Agreement (including a dispute relating to the existence, validity or termination of this Agreement or any non-contractual obligation arising out of or in connection with this Agreement) (a "Dispute"). (b) The Parties agree that the courts of England are the most appropriate and convenient courts to settle Disputes and accordingly no Party will argue to the contrary. 46.2 Service of process (a) Without prejudice to any other mode of service allowed under any relevant law, each Obligor (other than an Obligor incorporated in England and Wales): (i) irrevocably appoints Borr Galar (UK) Limited ("Borr Galar") as its agent for service of process in relation to any proceedings before the English courts in connection with any Finance Document, and Borr Galar acknowledges and accepts such appointment; and (ii) agrees that failure by a process agent to notify the relevant Obligor of the process will not invalidate the proceedings concerned. (b) If any person appointed as a process agent is unable for any reason to act as process agent, the Company (on behalf all the Obligors) must promptly (and in any event within 20 Business Days of such event taking place) appoint another agent on terms acceptable to the Agent (acting reasonably and in good faith).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;– 241 – #4938-4803-4138v16 Schedule 11 AGREED SECURITY PRINCIPLES 1. Agreed Security Principles (a) The guarantees and security to be provided will be given in accordance with the agreed security principles set out herein (the "Agreed Security Principles"). This Schedule addresses the manner in which the Agreed Security Principles will impact on the guarantees and security proposed to be taken in relation to this transaction. (b) The Agreed Security Principles embody a recognition by all parties that there may be certain legal and practical difficulties in obtaining effective or commercially reasonable guarantees and/or security from relevant members of the Group. In particular: (i) general legal and statutory limitations, such as regulatory restrictions, financial assistance, corporate benefit, capital maintenance, equity subordination, fraudulent preference, "interest stripping", "controlled foreign corporation", transfer pricing or "thin capitalisation" rules, tax restrictions, "fiscal unity" rules, retention of title claims and similar principles may prohibit, restrict or otherwise limit the ability of a member of the Group to provide a guarantee or security or may require that the guarantee or security be limited by an amount or otherwise. If any such limit applies, the guarantees and security provided (or the enforceability thereof) will be limited to the maximum amount which the relevant member of the Group may provide having regard to applicable law (including any jurisprudence) or otherwise (e.g. by market standard limitation language) and, subject to these Agreed Security Principles, the relevant member of the Group shall use commercially reasonable endeavours (not involving the payment of money or incurrence of any external expenses) to overcome any such limitation and any such limitations will not (generally or definitively) free the respective Obligor from any payment or other obligations under the respective security or guarantee, but merely postpone the due date of the respective obligations until such time as the obligations may again be performed without such limitations or subject to less stringent limitations; (ii) certain supervisory board, works council, regulator or regulatory board (or equivalent), or another external body's or person's consent may be required to enable a member of the Group to provide a guarantee or security. Such guarantee and/or security shall not be required unless such consent has been received provided that commercially reasonable endeavours for a maximum period of twenty (20) Business Days (not involving the payment of money or incurrence of any external expenses) have been used by the relevant member of the Group to obtain the relevant consent to the extent permissible by law and regulation and such consent has no material adverse impact on commercial relationships with third parties (in each case if the Security Agent (acting on instructions in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement, with – 242 – #4938-4803-4138v16 the relevant instructing parties being required to take into account the Company's view on any such potential impact), reasonably requests the Company to do so); (iii) a key factor in determining whether or not a guarantee or security shall be taken (and the extent of the perfection and/or registration of such security) is the applicable time and cost to the Group (including, without limitation, adverse effects in relation to taxes, interest deductibility and stamp duty, notarisation and registration fees) which shall not be disproportionate to the benefit accruing to the banks of obtaining such guarantee, security or perfection; (iv) where there is material incremental cost involved in creating security over all assets owned by an Obligor in a particular category the principle stated at paragraph (iii) above shall apply and, subject to these Agreed Security Principles, only the material assets in that category shall be subject to security; (v) the maximum guaranteed or secured amount may be limited to minimise stamp duty, notarisation, registration or other applicable fees, taxes and duties where the benefit of increasing the guaranteed or secured amount is disproportionate to the level of such fee, taxes and duties (and in any event the maximum aggregate amount payable by the Group in respect of fees, costs, expenses, disbursements and VAT relating to the provision of guarantees and security shall be limited to an amount to be agreed between the Security Agent (acting on instructions in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement) and the Company); (vi) it is acknowledged that in certain jurisdictions, it may be impossible, impractical, or disproportionately costly to create guarantees or security over certain categories of assets, in which event guarantees or security will not be taken over such assets; (vii) any assets or Obligors subject to third party arrangements permitted under the terms of this Agreement which may prevent those assets from being charged or assigned or those Obligors from giving a security or guarantee (or assets which, if charged or assigned, would give a third party the right to terminate or otherwise amend any rights, benefits and/or obligations of the Group in respect of those assets or require any member of the Group to take any action materially adverse to the interests of the Group or any member thereof) will be excluded from any relevant security document and any requirement to give security or guarantee; provided that commercially reasonable endeavours for a maximum period of twenty (20) Business Days (not involving the payment of money or incurrence of any external expenses) to obtain consent to charging any such assets shall be used by the Group if the Security Agent (acting on instructions in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement) confirms the relevant asset to be material and if, in the view of

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;– 243 – #4938-4803-4138v16 the Company (acting reasonably), taking such security will have no material adverse impact on commercial relationships with third parties (or otherwise cause the Group to incur any material cost); provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing but without prejudice to the requirement to use reasonable endeavours as described, no security shall be required over (and no consent or waiver request submitted with respect to) assets, of a member of the relevant target group being acquired, which are required to support indebtedness assumed in connection with an acquisition to the extent permitted by the terms of the Finance Documents to remain outstanding following a permitted acquisition ("Acquired Indebtedness"), and no member of the target group acquired pursuant to a permitted acquisition for so long as such Acquired Indebtedness remains outstanding and is permitted to remain outstanding under the terms of this Agreement, following completion of such permitted acquisition shall be required to become a Guarantor or grant security with respect to the Facility if prevented by the terms of the documentation governing such Acquired Indebtedness or if becoming a Guarantor or the granting of security with respect to the Facility would give rise to an obligation (including any payment obligation) under or in relation thereto; (viii) members of the Group will not be required to give guarantees or enter into security documents if it is not within the legal capacity of the relevant members of the Group or if the same would conflict with the fiduciary duties of those directors or contravene any legal prohibition or regulatory condition or would result in (or in a material risk of) personal or criminal liability on the part of any director, officer or employee provided that the relevant member of the Group shall use reasonable endeavours (not involving the payment of money or incurrence of any external expenses) to overcome any such obstacle; (ix) the giving of a guarantee, the granting of security or (prior to an Acceleration Event) the perfection of the security granted will not be required if it would have a material adverse effect on the ability of the relevant Obligor to conduct its operations and business (and any requirement under the Agreed Security Principles to seek consent of any person or take or not take any other action shall be subject to this paragraph (ix)); (x) to the extent possible, all security shall be given in favour of the Security Agent as one set of security interests and not in favour of the Finance Parties individually (provided that "Parallel Debt" provisions may be used where necessary and such provisions will be contained in the Intercreditor Agreement and not the individual security documents, unless agreed by the Company and the Security Agent (acting on instructions in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement) as being required to avoid an amendment to the Intercreditor Agreement); – 244 – #4938-4803-4138v16 (xi) no title investigations or surveys of any kind will be required and no title insurance will be required; (xii) to the extent not strictly required by local law, no action will be required to be taken in relation to the guarantees or security when any Lender assigns or transfers any of its participation to a new Lender (and notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no member of the Group shall bear or otherwise be liable for any taxes, any notarial, registration or perfection fees or any other costs, fees or expenses that result from any assignment or transfer by a Finance Party); (xiii) no perfection action will be required in jurisdictions where an Obligor is not located but perfection action may be required in the jurisdiction of one Obligor in relation to security granted by another Obligor located in a different jurisdiction; (xiv) all share security in respect of Share Security Jurisdictions granted in accordance with the Agreed Security Principles over the shares in a Restricted Subsidiary shall be governed by the law of incorporation of that Restricted Subsidiary; (xv) information (such as lists of receivables or bank account statements) will be provided if and only to the extent required by local law to be provided to perfect or register the relevant security interests and, unless required to be provided by local law more frequently, will be provided upon reasonable written request by the Security Agent if an Acceleration Event has occurred and is continuing; (xvi) security will, where possible and practical, automatically create security over future assets of the same type as those already secured; where local law requires supplemental pledges to be delivered in respect of future acquired assets in order for effective security to be created over that class of asset, such supplemental pledges shall be provided only upon the reasonable written request by the Security Agent (acting on instructions in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement) and at intervals no more frequently than annually, except if an Acceleration Event is continuing; (xvii) guarantees and security will not be required from or over, or over the assets of, any joint venture or similar arrangement or any minority interest; (xviii) no guarantee or security shall guarantee or secure any "Excluded Swap Obligations" defined in accordance with the LSTA Market Advisory Update dated February 15, 2013 entitled "Swap Regulations' Implications for Loan Documentation", and any update thereto by the LSTA; (xix) in no event shall control agreements or perfection by control or similar arrangements be required with respect to any assets (including deposit or securities accounts);

Covenant Suspension During any period of time that:(a) the Original Senior Secured Notes have Investment Grade Ratings from at least two Rating Agencies, and (b) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under this Agreement, (i) the Loan Guarantees will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged (to the extent that guarantees by the Guarantors of all other Pari Passu Indebtedness are substantially concurrently released), (ii) the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero, and (iii) the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to the following provisions of this Agreement: (a) Section 1 (Limitation on Debt and Issuance of Preferred Stock); (b) Section 2 (Limitation on Restricted Payments); (c) Section 4 (Limitation on Asset Sales); – 288 – #4938-4803-4138v16 (d) Section 5 (Limitation on Sale and Leaseback Transactions); (e) Section 6 (Limitation on Accounts Receivables Facilities); (f) Section 7 (Limitation on Restrictions on Distributions from Restricted Subsidiaries); (g) Section 8 (Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates); and (h) sub-paragraph (a)(iii) of Section 9 (Successors); (collectively, the "Suspended Covenants" and the period of time that the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the Suspended Covenants, the "Suspension Period"). In the event that the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the Suspended Covenants for any period of time as a result of the preceding sentence and, subsequently, two or more of the Rating Agencies withdraws its ratings or downgrades the ratings assigned to the Original Senior Secured Notes below the required Investment Grade Ratings (the date of such ratings withdrawal or downgrade, the "Reversion Date"), then the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries will thereafter again be subject to the Suspended Covenants for all periods after the Reversion Date and, furthermore, for the purpose of compliance with the provisions of Section 2 (Limitation on Restricted Payments) with respect to Restricted Payments made after the Reversion Date, the amount of Restricted Payments made shall be calculated as though Section 2 (Limitation on Restricted Payments) had been in effect prior to, but not during, the Suspension Period, provided that there will not be deemed to have occurred a Default or Event of Default with respect to that covenant during the Suspension Period (or after that time based solely on events that occurred during that time). The Company will promptly give the Agent written notice of any such suspension of covenants. In the absence of such notice, the Agent shall assume that the Suspended Covenants are in full force and effect. Solely for the purpose of determining the amount of Permitted Liens under Section 3 (Limitation on Liens) during any Suspension Period and without limiting the Company's or any Restricted Subsidiary's ability to Incur Debt during any Suspension Period, to the extent that calculations in Section 3 (Limitation on Liens) refer to Section 1 (Limitation on Debt and Issuance of Preferred Stock) such calculations shall be made as though Section 1 (Limitation on Debt and Issuance of Preferred Stock) remains in effect during the Suspension Period. On the Reversion Date, all Debt Incurred during the Suspension Period will be classified to have been Incurred pursuant to sub-paragraph (x) of the definition of "Permitted Debt" in the second paragraph of Section 1 (Limitation on Debt and Issuance of Preferred Stock). For purposes of determining compliance with Section 4 (Limitation on Asset Sales), on the Reversion Date, the Net Available Cash from all Asset Sales not applied in accordance with the covenant will be deemed to be reset to zero. On the Reversion Date, for purposes of determining compliance with Section 8 (Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates), all agreements and arrangements entered into by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary with an Affiliate of the Company during the Suspension Period shall be deemed to have been entered into pursuant to sub-

No Subsidiaries may be designated as Unrestricted Subsidiaries during any Suspension Period. Notwithstanding that the Suspended Covenants may be reinstated, no Default or Event of Default will be deemed to have occurred as a result of any failure to comply with the Suspended Covenants during any Suspension Period and the Company and any Subsidiary of the Company will be permitted, without causing a Default or Event of Default or breach of any of the Suspended Covenants (notwithstanding the reinstatement thereof) under this Agreement, to honor, comply with or otherwise perform any contractual commitments or obligations entered into during a Suspension Period following a Reversion Date and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby; provided that, to the extent any such commitment or obligation results in the making of a Restricted Payment, such Restricted Payment shall be made under Section 2 (Limitation on Restricted Payments) and, if not permitted by such covenant, such Restricted Payment shall be deemed permitted by sub- paragraph (c) of the first paragraph of Section 2 (Limitation on Restricted Payments) and shall be deducted for purposes of calculating the amount pursuant to such sub-paragraph (c) (which may not be less than zero). The Company will give the Agent written notice of any occurrence of a Reversion Date. After any such notice of the occurrence of a Reversion Date, the Agent shall assume that the Suspended Covenants apply and are in full force and effect. 11. Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries The Company may designate any Subsidiary of the Company (including any newly acquired or newly formed Subsidiary or a Person becoming a Subsidiary through merger, amalgamation, consolidation or other business combination transaction, or Investment therein, but excluding the Company) to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if: (a) the Subsidiary to be so designated does not own any Capital Stock or Debt of, or own or hold any Lien on any Property of, the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary, (b) immediately before and immediately after such designation, no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and (c) any of the following: (i) the Subsidiary to be so designated has total assets of $1,000 or less, or (ii) if the Subsidiary has consolidated assets greater than $1,000, then the designation would be permitted under Section 2 (Limitation on Restricted Payments). – 290 – #4938-4803-4138v16 Unless so designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, any Person that becomes a Subsidiary of the Company will be classified as a Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that the Subsidiary shall not be designated a Restricted Subsidiary and shall be automatically classified as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if the Person is a Subsidiary of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. Except as provided in the first sentence of the preceding paragraph and as set forth in paragraph (a) of the definition of "Unrestricted Subsidiary", no Restricted Subsidiary may be designated or redesignated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Board of Directors of the Company may designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if, immediately after giving effect on a pro forma basis to the designation, (x) the Company could Incur at least $1.00 of additional Debt pursuant to paragraph (a) of Section 1 (Limitation on Debt and Issuance of Preferred Stock), and (y) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom. Any designation or redesignation of this kind by the Company will be evidenced to the Agent by providing the Agent with an Officer's Certificate that specifies such designation or redesignation and: (a) certifies that the designation or redesignation complies with the foregoing provisions, and (b) gives the effective date of the designation or redesignation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall ensure that no direct or indirect Permitted Investments in Borr Vale Inc. and Borr Var Inc. (or any direct or indirect parent company thereof) are used, directly or indirectly, for Restricted Payments to any holder of equity of the Company, including, without limitation, any dividends or distributions (whether made in cash, securities or other Property) declared or paid on or with respect to any shares of Capital Stock of the Company. 12. Impairment of Security Interest The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, take or knowingly or negligently omit to take any action that would have the result of materially impairing the Security Interest with respect to the Collateral (it being understood, subject to the proviso below, that the Incurrence of Liens on Collateral shall under no circumstances be deemed to materially impair the Security Interest with respect to the Collateral), and the Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, grant to any Person other than the Security Agent, for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders and the other beneficiaries described in the Transaction Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement or any Additional Intercreditor Agreement, any interest whatsoever in any of the Collateral, except that (1) the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may Incur Permitted Collateral Liens; (2) the Collateral may be amended,

The Company may in its sole discretion elect to have any Loan Guarantee remain in place, as opposed to being released.
