**NON-U.S. GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION**

In this annual report, we disclose non-GAAP financial measures, namely Adjusted EBITDA, as defined under "Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects". This measure is an important measure used by us, and our businesses, to assess financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and as used herein represents net loss adjusted for: depreciation and impairment of non-current assets, other non-operating income, income/(loss) from equity method investments, total financial expenses, net, amortization of deferred mobilization and contract preparation costs, amortization of deferred mobilization and demobilization revenue, and income tax. We present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe that it and other similar measures are widely used by certain investors, securities analysts and other interested parties as supplemental measures of performance. We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides meaningful information about the performance of our business and therefore we use it to supplement our U.S. GAAP reporting. Moreover, our management uses Adjusted EBITDA in presentations to our Board to provide a consistent basis to measure operating performance of our business, as a measure for planning and forecasting overall expectations, for evaluation of actual results against such expectations and in communications with our shareholders, lenders, bondholders, rating agencies and others concerning our financial performance. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA increases the comparability of year-to-year results and is representative of our underlying performance and against the performance of other companies by excluding the results of our equity method investments, although Adjusted EBITDA has significant limitations, including not reflecting our cash requirements for capital or deferred costs, rig reactivation costs, newbuild rig activation costs, taxes 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 net income or other operating results as reported under U.S. GAAP.

**MARKET AND INDUSTRY DATA**

In this annual report, we present certain market and industry data. Certain information contained in this annual report regarding our industry and the markets in which we operate is based on our own internal estimates and research. This information is based on third party services which we believe to be reliable. Unless otherwise indicated, the basis for any statements regarding our competitive position in this annual report is based on our own assessment and knowledge of the market in which we operate. Forward-looking information obtained from third party sources is subject to the same qualifications and the uncertainties regarding the other forward-looking statements in this annual report.

Market data and statistics are inherently predictive and subject to uncertainty and do not necessarily reflect actual market conditions. Such statistics are based on market research, which, itself, is based on sampling and subjective judgments by both the researchers and the respondents, including judgments about what types of products and transactions should be included in the relevant market. As a result, investors should be aware that statistics, statements and other information relating to markets, market sizes, market shares, market positions and other industry data set forth in this annual report, including in the section entitled "Item 4.B. Business Overview—Industry Overview" (and projections, assumptions and estimates based on such data) may not be reliable indicators of our future performance and the future performance of the offshore drilling industry. See the sections entitled "Item 3.D. Risk Factors" and "Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements."

**SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS**

This annual report and any other written or oral statements made by us or on our behalf may include forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical facts are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are made under the "safe harbor" provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Sections of this annual report on Form 20-F entitled "Risk Factors," "Business Overview" and "Operating and Financial Review and Prospects," among others, discuss factors which could adversely impact our business and financial performance.

You can identify these forward-looking statements by words or phrases such as "may," "will," "expect," "anticipate," "aim," "estimate," "intend," "plan," "believe," "likely to" or other similar expressions. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity requirements, strategy and financial needs. These forward-looking statements include statements about plans, objectives, goals, strategies, outlook, prospects, future events or performance, underlying assumptions, expected industry trends, including the attractiveness of shallow water drilling and activity levels in the jack-up rig and oil industry, day rates, contract backlog, expected contracting and operation of our jack-up rigs, drilling contracts, and contract terms, including day rates, statements with respect to our ATM program, expected industry trends including demand for and expected utilization of rigs, and tender activity and new tenders, and demand and oil and gas price trends, plans regarding rig

Business Overview—Industry Overview" and "Item 5.D. Trend Information," and other non-historical statements, which are other than statements of historical or present facts or conditions.

The forward-looking statements in this annual report are based upon current expectations and various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions, including, management's examination of historical operating trends, data contained in our records and other data available from third parties. These assumptions are inherently subject to significant risks, uncertainties, contingencies and factors that are difficult or impossible to predict and are beyond our control, and that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Numerous factors that could cause our actual results, level of activity, outcome, performance or achievements to differ materially from the results, level of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements include: risks relating to our industry and business, the risk of delays in payments to our Mexican JVs and consequent payments to us, the risk that our customers do not comply with their contractual obligations, risks relating to industry conditions and tendering activity, risks relating to the agreements we have reached with lenders, risks relating to our liquidity, the risk that we are not able to meet our liquidity requirements and other risks relating to our liquidity requirements, risks relating to cash flows from operations, the risk that we may be unable to raise necessary funds through issuance of additional debt or equity or sale of assets, risks relating to our loan agreements, and risks related to our debt instruments and rig purchase and finance contracts, including risks relating to our ability to comply with covenants and obtain any necessary waivers and the risk of cross defaults, risks relating to our ability to meet or refinance our significant debt obligations including debt maturities and obligations under rig purchase and finance contracts and our other obligations as they fall due, risks relating to future financings including the risk that future financings may not be completed when required and future equity financings will dilute shareholders and the risk that the foregoing would result in insufficient liquidity to continue our operations or to operate as a going concern, risks relating to our newbuild purchase and financing agreements, risks relating to inflation including the impact on our finance costs and risks relating to recent bank failures, risks related to climate change, including climate-change or greenhouse gas related legislation or regulations and the impact on our business from climate-change related physical changes or changes in weather patterns, and the potential impact on the demand for oil and gas, risks relating to the military action in Ukraine and the current global economic conditions and their impact on our business, and other risks described in "Item 3.D. Risk Factors." Given these risks and uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results.

Any forward-looking statements that we make in this annual report speak only as of the date of such statements and we caution readers of this annual report not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement or statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. The foregoing factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those contemplated in any forward-looking statement included in this annual report should not be construed as exhaustive. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of these factors. Further, we cannot assess the impact of each such factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to be materially different from those contained in any forward-looking statement. You should read this annual report, and each of the documents filed as exhibits to the annual report, completely, with this cautionary note in mind, and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect.

**RISK FACTORS RELATED TO OUR INDUSTRY**

***The offshore drilling industry and jack-up drilling market historically has been highly cyclical, with periods of low demand and/or over-supply that could result in adverse effects on our business.***

The jack-up drilling market historically has been highly cyclical and is primarily related to the demand for, and the available supply of, jack-up rigs. Demand for jack-up rigs is directly related to the regional and worldwide levels of offshore exploration and development spending by oil and gas companies, which is beyond our control. It is not unusual for jack-up rigs to be unutilized or underutilized for significant periods of time and subsequently resume full or near full utilization when business cycles improve. During historical industry periods of high utilization and high dayrates, industry participants have ordered new jack-up rigs, which has resulted in an over-supply of jack-up rigs worldwide. During periods of supply exceeding demand, jack-up rigs may be contracted at or near cash breakeven operating rates for extended periods of time until dayrates increase when the supply/demand balance is restored and in recent years oversupply has resulted in "stacking" of rigs. Offshore exploration and development spending may fluctuate substantially from year-to-year and from region-to-region.

Volatility in the oil price impacts demand in the offshore drilling industry. Over the past several years, crude oil prices have been volatile and started to steeply decline in late 2014, after reaching prices of over $100 per barrel in 2014, and dropped to as low as approximately $19 per barrel in April 2020 driven by the impact on demand resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Oil prices have recovered since then, reaching a price of approximately $130 per barrel of Brent Crude on March 7, 2022 but have remained volatile and more recently declined to approximately $77 per barrel in December 2022. Oil prices have continued to experience significant volatility in part due to the COVID-19 pandemic, global inflation, concerns of a global recession and volatility in global financial markets, actions of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries ("OPEC") and other oil and gas producers and production cuts and, the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Increases in oil prices do not necessarily translate into increased drilling activity because our customers take into account a number of considerations when they decide to invest in offshore oil and gas resources, including expectations regarding future commodity oil prices and demand for hydrocarbons, which typically have a greater impact on demand for our rigs. The level of oil and gas prices has had, and may have in the future, a material effect on demand for our rigs. In addition, in prior years there has been an oversupply of jack-up rigs, which impacts utilization and dayrates, and while this oversupply has ceased recently, we may again face an oversupply of jack-up rigs in the event demand declines and as new rigs are constructed. Demand for our contract drilling services and the dayrates for those services impacts our operations and operating results, and any industry downturn would adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, and ability to meet covenants in our loan agreements.

The industry downturn in recent years has resulted in many operators idling rigs and a number of our rigs were not in operation for significant periods of 2021 which in turn impacted dayrates for those rigs that were active. Since the downturn, the Company has experienced an increase in the number of working and contracted rigs, which stood at 18 and 21 on December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2022, respectively, however several of these contracts are short term in nature and the number of working and contracted rigs could reduce in the event the Company fails to maintain existing drilling contracts, renew or secure further contracts for these rigs. A prolonged period of reduced demand and/or excess jack-up rig supply may require us to idle or dispose of jack-up rigs or to enter into low dayrate contracts or contracts with unfavorable terms. There can be no assurance that the demand for jack-up rigs will increase or even remain at current levels. Any decline, or if there is not an improvement, in demand for services of jack-up rigs, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

***The offshore drilling industry and the jack-up drilling market are highly competitive, with periods of excess rig availability which reduce dayrates and could result in adverse effects on our business.***

Our industry is highly competitive, and our contracts are traditionally awarded on a competitive bid basis. Pricing, rig age, safety records and competency are key factors in determining which qualified contractor is awarded a job. Competitive factors include: rig availability, rig location, rig operating features and technical capabilities, pricing, workforce experience, operating efficiency, condition of equipment, contractor experience in a specific area, reputation and customer relationships. If we are not able to compete successfully, our revenues and profitability may be impacted, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The supply of offshore drilling rigs, including jack-up rigs, has recently been in a period characterized by excess rig supply. While the recent increase in demand has eased this oversupply, a decline in demand could curtail a strengthening, or trigger a further reduction, in utilization and dayrates. Approximately 8 and 9 newbuild jack-up rigs were delivered during 2021 and 2022, respectively, representing an approximate 2.0% and 2.4% increase in the total worldwide fleet of competitive offshore jack-up drilling rigs since the end of 2020 and 2021, respectively. As of March 23 2023, there were approximately 20 newbuild jack-up rigs reported to be on order or under construction (including the two rigs we have agreed to purchase that are still located in shipyards), against the 30 and 39 newbuild jack-up rigs reported to be on order or under construction at the end of 2021 and 2020,

------

respectively. Most of the newbuild jack-up rigs under construction, and to be delivered no later than the third quarter of 2025, including the newbuild jack-up rigs we have agreed to purchase, do not have drilling contracts in place. The supply of marketed offshore drilling rigs could increase due to depressed market conditions, such as the conditions the industry has recently experienced, resulting in an increase in uncontracted rigs. The market in general or a geographic region in particular may not be able to fully absorb the supply of new rigs in future periods and when the period of excess rig supply will end. Any over-supply of drilling rigs could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

***The success of our business largely depends on the level of activity in the oil and gas industry, which can be significantly affected by volatile oil and natural gas prices.***

The success of our business largely depends on the level of activity in offshore oil and natural gas exploration, development and production, which may be affected by oil and gas prices and conditions in the worldwide economy. Oil and natural gas prices, and market expectations of potential changes in these prices, significantly affect the level of drilling activity. Historically, when drilling activity and operator capital spending decline, utilization and dayrates also decline and drilling may be reduced or discontinued, resulting in an oversupply of drilling rigs. Oil and natural gas prices have historically been volatile, and oil prices declined significantly for a long period since mid-2014, when prices were in excess of $100 per barrel, reaching levels of approximately as low as $19 per barrel in April 2020 causing operators to reduce capital spending and cancel or defer existing programs, substantially reducing the opportunities for new drilling contracts.

Although oil prices have recovered since the low levels of early 2020, we may experience insufficient demand if long term oil prices decline below current levels and/or rig supply remains at or increases above current levels. A short-lived (or expectation of a short-lived) recovery in oil and natural gas prices, continued volatility in prices or further price reductions, may cause our customers to maintain historically low levels or further reduce their overall level of activity and capital spending, in which case demand for our services may decline and our results of operations may be adversely affected through lower rig utilization and/or low dayrates. Numerous factors may affect oil and natural gas prices and demand for our services, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• regional and global economic conditions and changes therein, including the effects of inflation, and concerns of a global recession and volatility in financial markets;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• oil and natural gas supply and demand;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• expectations regarding future energy prices;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the ability or willingness of OPEC, and other non-member nations, to reach further agreements to set and maintain production levels and pricing and to implement existing and future agreements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any decision of OPEC and other non-member nations to abandon production quotas and/or member-country quota compliance within OPEC agreement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a reduction of capital spending and activities in the oil and gas sector by our customers as they are starting to allocate resources to green energy projects, leading to less focus on oil and natural gas production growth;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the level of production by non-OPEC countries;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• inventory levels, and the cost and availability of storage and transportation of oil, gas and their related products;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• capital allocation decisions by our customers, including the relative economics of offshore development versus onshore prospects;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the occurrence or threat of epidemic or pandemic diseases and any government response to such occurrence or threat, specifically, the current implications of, and future expectations in relation to, COVID-19 on global economic activity and therefore oil prices, cross border trade restrictions, employees' ability and willingness to work, oil supply and demand, and resource owners' ability to deliver future projects;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• advances in exploration and development technology;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• costs associated with exploration, developing, producing and delivering oil and natural gas;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the rate of discovery of new oil and gas reserves and the rate of decline of existing oil and gas reserves;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• trade policies and sanctions imposed on oil-producing countries or the lifting of such sanctions, including sanctions resulting from the Russian military invasion of Ukraine;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• laws and government regulations that limit, restrict or prohibit exploration and development of oil and natural gas in various jurisdictions, or materially increase the cost of such exploration and development;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the further development or success of shale technology to exploit oil and gas reserves;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• available pipeline and other oil and gas transportation capacity;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the development and exploitation of alternative fuels;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• laws and regulations relating to environmental matters, including those addressing alternative energy sources and the risks of global climate change such as the variety of tax credits contained in the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, to promote the use of renewable energy sources;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• increased demand for alternative energy and increased emphasis on decarbonization;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in tax laws, regulations and policies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• merger, acquisition and divestiture activity among exploration and production companies ("E&P Companies");

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the availability of, and access to, suitable locations from which our customers can explore and produce hydrocarbons;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• activities by non-governmental organizations to restrict the exploration, development and production of oil and gas in light of environmental considerations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• disruption to exploration and development activities due to hurricanes and other severe weather conditions and the risk thereof;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• natural disasters or incidents resulting from operating hazards inherent in offshore drilling, such as oil spills;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the worldwide social and political environment, including uncertainty or instability resulting from changes in political leadership and environmental policies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• geopolitical-social views toward fossil fuels and renewable energy and changes in investors' expectations regarding environmental, social and governance matters; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the worldwide military and political environment, including uncertainty or instability resulting from an escalation or additional outbreak of armed hostilities, including the Russian military invasion of Ukraine and tensions between the U.S., Russia and China, or other crises in oil or natural gas producing areas of the Middle East or geographic areas in which we operate, or acts of terrorism.

The industry has experienced significant declines in capital spending and cancelled or deferred drilling programs by many operators from 2015 to 2021, coupled with declining oil prices to its lowest level in April 2020. Oil prices have increased since the lows reached in 2020, however higher oil and gas prices may not necessarily translate into continued increased activity, and even during periods of high oil and gas prices, customers may cancel or curtail their drilling programs, or reduce their levels of capital expenditures for exploration and production for a variety of reasons, including their lack of success in exploration efforts. Any increase or reduction in drilling activity by our customers may not be uniform across different geographic regions. Locations where costs of drilling and production are relatively higher may be subject to greater reductions in activity or may recover more slowly. Such variation between regions may lead to the relocation of drilling rigs, concentrating drilling rigs in regions with relatively fewer reductions in activity leading to greater competition.

Advances in onshore exploration and development technologies, particularly with respect to onshore shale, could also result in our customers allocating more of their capital expenditure budgets to onshore exploration and production activities and less to offshore activities.

------

Moreover, there has historically been a strong link between the development of the world economy and the demand for energy, including oil and gas. An extended period of adverse development in the outlook for the world economy could reduce the overall demand for oil and gas and therefore demand for our services. The continuing effects of COVID-19 including actions taken in relation thereto, supply chain disruptions, inflation, rising interest rates, concerns of a global economic recession and volatility in the financial markets and the war in Ukraine and related sanctions and other impacts has caused significant adverse impacts on the global economy and we do not know when this trend will improve or how long an improving trend will last.

These factors could impact our revenues and profits and as a result limit our future growth prospects as well as our liquidity and ability to comply with covenants in loan agreements. Any significant decline in dayrates or utilization of our rigs could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, these risks could increase instability in the financial and insurance markets and make it more difficult for us to access capital and obtain insurance coverage that we consider adequate or are otherwise required by our contracts.

***Global geopolitical tensions and instability, including from the Russian military invasion of Ukraine, supply disruptions, inflation, and concerns of a global recession and volatility in the financial markets may rise and create heightened volatility in the oil and natural gas prices that could result in adverse effects on our business.***

Global geopolitical tensions and instability, including from the Russian military invasion of Ukraine, supply disruptions, inflation, concerns of a global recession and volatility in financial markets, have, and may continue to, increase and create heightened volatility in the oil and gas prices that could result in an adverse effect on our business, as we largely depend on the level of activity in the oil and gas industry and such volatility, including market expectations of potential changes in these prices, may significantly affect the level of drilling activity. The Russian invasion of Ukraine, coupled with existing supply disruptions, increases in interest rates, has and may continue to exacerbate, inflation and significant volatility in commodity prices, credit and capital markets, as well as supply chain disruptions. The sanctions and other penalties imposed on Russia by the U.S., E.U and other countries including restricting imports of Russian oil, liquefied natural gas and coal have caused supply disruptions in the oil and gas markets and could continue to cause significant volatility in oil prices, and inflation and may trigger a recession in the U.S., Europe, China, among other areas. This could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, along with our operating costs, making it difficult to execute our planned capital expenditure program. The tensions arising from the invasion of Ukraine could also increase other political tensions and international trade and other relations, with a further effect on world oil and gas markets, the supply of jack-up rigs worldwide, regional and worldwide levels of offshore exploration and development spending by oil and gas companies, reduce our dayrates and our revenue. In addition, sanctions imposed as a result of the military actions and related tensions could impose restrictions on our business and risk of non-compliance. The emergence of new or escalated tensions between Russia and neighboring states or other states, including European and non-European countries, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation. In addition, any increase in the price of oil resulting from this conflict and related sanctions may not result in increased demand for drilling services or any increase may not be sustained and may only contribute to the volatility in oil prices.

***Global, international and national trends to renewable energy based infrastructure and power supply and generation may cause long term demand for our customers products and services to fall, and in turn affect the demand for our services.***

Various global and transnational initiatives exist, and continue to be proposed by governments, non-governmental organizations and power suppliers in particular, which exist to hasten the long-term transition from fossil fuels to low or zero carbon alternatives, such as wind, water or hydrogen based power or fuel sources. We provide drilling services to customers who own and produce fossil fuels, and therefore where low or zero-based carbon policies are implemented in territories in which we operate or may be capable of operating in the future, there exists a risk that demand for our customers' services falls or fails to increase, and in turn the demand for our rigs and services falls or fails to increase.

***Down-cycles in the offshore drilling industry and other factors may affect the market value of our jack-up rigs and the newbuild rigs we have agreed to purchase.***

Trends in the price of oil impact the spending for the services of jack-up rigs. Demand for jack-up rigs in the shallow-water offshore jack-up drilling market was adversely impacted by the downwards trends in the price of oil since 2014 and while prices have recovered since 2020, oil prices and remain volatile. Continued volatility in oil prices or further oil price down-cycles, may negatively impact customer demand. Adverse developments in the offshore drilling industry including negative movements in the price of oil, can cause the fair market value of our existing and newbuild jack-up rigs to decline. In addition, the fair market value of the jack-up rigs that we currently own, have agreed to acquire, or may acquire in the future, may decrease depending on a number of factors, including:

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the general economic and market conditions affecting the offshore contract drilling industry, including competition from other offshore contract drilling companies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• developments in the global economy including oil prices and demand in the shallow-water offshore drilling market, as well as the lingering effects of COVID-19 on the foregoing impact our ability to operate rigs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the types, sizes and ages of our jack-up rigs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the supply and demand for our jack-up rigs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the costs of newbuild jack-up rigs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• prevailing drilling services contract dayrates;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• government or other regulations; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• technological advances.

If jack-up rig values fall significantly, we may have to record an impairment in our financial statements, which could affect our results of operations. Certain of our competitors in the offshore drilling industry may have a larger or more diverse fleet and a more favorable capitalization than we do, which could allow them to better withstand any impairment recorded for their own fleets or the effects of a commodity price down-cycle. Additionally, if we sell one or more of our jack-up rigs at a time when drilling rig prices have fallen, we may incur a loss on disposal and a reduction in earnings, which may cause us to breach the covenants in certain of our finance agreements. Under certain of our Financing Arrangements, we are required to comply with loan-to-value or minimum-value-clauses, which could require us to post additional collateral or prepay a portion of the outstanding borrowings should the value of the jack-up rigs securing borrowings under each of such agreements decrease below required levels. If we are unable to comply with the covenants in certain of our financing agreements and we are unable to get a waiver, a default could occur under the terms of those agreements. See "Item 5.B Liquidity and Capital Resources" for more information about the covenants in our financing arrangements.

***Our operations involve risks due to their international nature.***

We operate in various regions throughout the world. As a result of our international operations, we may be exposed to political and other uncertainties, including risks of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• terrorist acts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• armed hostilities, war and civil disturbances;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• acts of piracy, which have historically affected marine assets;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• significant governmental influence over many aspects of local economies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the seizure, nationalization or expropriation of property or equipment;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• uncertainty of outcome in court proceedings in any jurisdiction where we may be subject to claims;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the repudiation, nullification, modification or renegotiation of contracts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• limitations on insurance coverage, such as war risk coverage, in certain areas;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• political unrest;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the occurrence or threat of epidemic or pandemic diseases or any governmental or industry response to such occurrence or threat, which could impact demand and our ability to conduct operations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• monetary policy and foreign currency fluctuations and devaluations;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• an inability to repatriate income or capital;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• complications associated with repairing and replacing equipment in remote locations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• import-export quotas, wage and price controls, and the imposition of trade barriers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• imposition of, or changes in, local content laws and their enforcement, particularly in West Africa and South East Asia, where the legislatures are active in developing new legislation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• sanctions or trade embargoes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• compliance with various jurisdictional regulatory or financial requirements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• compliance with and changes to tax laws and interpretations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• other forms of government regulation and economic conditions that are beyond our control; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• government corruption.

It is difficult to predict whether, and if so, when the risks referred to above may come to fruition and the impact thereof. Failure to comply with, or adapt to, applicable laws and regulations or other disturbances as they occur may subject us to criminal sanctions, civil remedies or other increases in costs, including fines, the denial of export privileges, injunctions, seizures of assets or the inability to otherwise remove our jack-up rig from the country in which it operates.

**RISK FACTORS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS**

***We may not be able to renew contracts which expire and our customers may seek to cancel or renegotiate their contracts, particularly in response to unfavorable industry conditions.***

Many jack-up drilling contracts are short-term, and oil and natural gas companies tend to reduce activity levels quickly in response to declining oil and natural gas prices. Our jack-up drilling contracts, including our bareboat contracts with equity method investments in Mexico, typically range from three to twenty-four months, although contract periods may be longer in certain countries or regions. During periods of volatility in oil prices, our customers may be unwilling to commit to long-term contracts. Short-term drilling contracts do not provide the stability or visibility of revenue that we would otherwise receive with long-term drilling contracts.

In addition, in difficult market conditions, some of our customers may seek to terminate their agreements with us or to renegotiate our contracts using various techniques, including threatening breaches of contract, relying on force majeure clauses, and applying commercial pressure. Some of our customers have the right to terminate their drilling contracts without cause in return for payment of an early termination fee or compensation to us for costs incurred up to termination. The general principle under our arrangements with customers typically is that any such early termination payment, where applicable, should compensate us for lost revenues less operating expenses for the remaining contract period; however, in some cases, any such payments may not fully compensate us for the loss of the drilling contract. Under certain circumstances our contracts may permit customers to terminate contracts early without any termination payment either for convenience or as a result of non-performance, periods of downtime or impaired performance caused by equipment or operational issues (typically after a specified remedial period), or sustained periods of downtime due to force majeure events beyond our control. In addition, state-owned oil company customers may have special termination rights by law. Our customers themselves may have contracts from their customers terminated in reliance on similar contractual provisions, putting pressure on our customers to terminate or renegotiate their agreements with us.

During periods of challenging market conditions, we may be subject to an increased risk of our (i) customers choosing not to renew short-term contracts or drill option wells, (ii) customers repudiating contracts or seeking to terminate contracts on grounds including extended force majeure circumstances or on the basis of assertions of non-compliance by us of our contractual obligations, (iii) customers seeking to renegotiate their contracts to reduce the agreed day rates and (iv) cancellation of drilling contracts for convenience (with or without early termination payments). For instance, in spring 2020, the Company received early terminations, suspensions and cancellation of contracts for six rigs. Loss of contracts may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

***Prevailing market conditions, including the supply of jack-up rigs worldwide, may affect our ability to obtain favorable contracts for our newbuild jack-up rigs or our jack-up rigs that do not have contracts.***

As of March 23, 2023, 44 jack-up rigs in the existing worldwide fleet were off contract and approximately 18 drilling rigs under construction have not been contracted for future work, including the jack-up rigs we have on order which have not been delivered. In addition, we currently have one rig warm stacked which is available for contracting.

We continue to experience competition which may be exacerbated by the entry of newbuild rigs into the market, many of which are without drilling contracts (including the rigs we have agreed to purchase). The supply of available uncontracted jack-up rigs has, and may, intensify price competition, reducing dayrates as the active fleet worldwide grows. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the war in Ukraine, global inflation and economic conditions and concerns of a global recession have exacerbated this trend with its impact on rig operations and demand on the global economy and oil prices. Customers may also opt to contract older rigs in order to reduce costs, which could adversely affect our ability to obtain new drilling contracts due to our newer fleet. For an overview of our fleet, see the section entitled "Item 4.B Business Overview—Our Business—Our Fleet."

Our ability to obtain new contracts depends on our customers and prevailing market conditions, which may vary among different geographic regions and types of drilling rigs sought. There is no assurance that we will secure drilling contracts for the newbuild rigs we have agreed to purchase or our jack-up rig that is stacked, and the drilling contracts that we do secure may be at unattractive dayrates. If we are unable to secure contracts for our newbuild jack-up rigs, we may idle or stack these rigs, which means such rigs will not produce revenues but will continue to require cash expenditures for crews, fuel, insurance, berthing and associated items. The key characteristics of our uncontracted rigs which may yield differences in their marketability or readiness for use include whether such rigs are warm stacked or cold stacked, age of the rig, geographic location and technical specifications; please see "Item 4.B Business Overview—Our Business—Our Fleet" for further information concerning these features by rig. We may also seek to delay delivery of our newbuild jack-up rigs, which could adversely affect our revenues and profitability. We have no right to delay delivery of the newbuild rigs we have agreed to purchase on grounds that we are unable to secure contracts. If we request a delay to the contractual delivery dates, we are dependent upon the outcome of any negotiations with the shipyard, which may not result in any delay or may lead to an increase in cost to compensate the shipyard.

If new contracts are entered into at dayrates substantially below the existing dayrates or on terms otherwise less favorable compared to existing contract terms among our then-active fleet, our business could be adversely affected. We may also be required to accept more risk in areas other than price to secure a contract and we may be unable to push this risk down to other contractors or be unable or unwilling at competitive prices to insure against this risk, which will mean the risk will have to be managed by applying other controls. Accepting such increased risk could lead to significant losses or us being unable to meet our liabilities in the event of a catastrophic event affecting any rig contracted on this basis.

***Our total contract backlog may not be realized.***

The total contract backlog (in $ millions) presented in this annual report is only an estimate and is not the same measure as the acquired contract backlog presented in our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included herein. Many of our contracts are short-term. As of December 31, 2022, our Total Contract Backlog (excluding backlog from joint venture operations which earns related party revenue) was approximately $929.8 million, excluding unexercised options, and we have nine contracts that expire during 2023 and seven contracts that expire between 2024 and 2028. Actual expiry dates could be earlier or later.

The actual amount of revenues earned and the actual periods during which revenues are earned will be different from our Total Contract Backlog projections due to various factors, including shipyard and maintenance projects, downtime and other events within or beyond our control. We do not adjust our Total Contract Backlog for expected or unexpected downtime. In addition, some of our customers have the right to terminate their drilling contracts without cause upon the payment of an early termination fee or compensation for costs incurred up to termination. Under certain circumstances our contracts may permit customers to terminate contracts early without any termination payment either for convenience or as a result of non-performance, periods of downtime or impaired performance caused by equipment or operational issues (typically after a specified remedial period), or sustained periods of downtime due to force majeure events beyond our control. In addition, state-owned oil company customers may have special termination rights by law. If we or our customers are unable to perform under our or their contractual obligations or if customers exercise termination rights, this could lead to results that vary significantly from those contemplated by our Total Contract Backlog.

The continuing global uncertainty resulting from, among other factors, the war in Ukraine, global inflation and economic conditions and oil price volatility has contributed to the uncertainty of our Total Contract Backlog. This uncertainty and related impact on us may continue.

***We may receive cash calls from our Joint Ventures in Mexico in order to fund working capital, capital expenditure outlays or any shortfalls, due to delays in invoices being approved and paid by customers.***

We provide five jack-up rigs on bareboat charters to two joint venture companies in Mexico, Perfomex and Perfomex II, which are owned 51% by us, and provide the jack-up rigs under traditional dayrate drilling and technical service agreements to OPEX Perforadora S.A. de C.V. ("Opex") and Perforadora Profesional AKAL I, S.A. de C.V. ("Akal"). As a 51% shareholder in each of the Joint Ventures, we are obligated to fund any capital shortfall where the boards of Perfomex or Perfomex II make a cash call to the shareholders under the provisions of certain shareholder agreements. If the Joint Ventures do not have sufficient working capital to operate the rigs, due to delays in invoice approval and payments from customers or other reasons, we may have to fund working capital or capital expenditure outlays for the operation of our five jack-up rigs. In particular, Opex and Akal, which were previously 49% owned by us, have experienced delays in invoices being approved and paid by PEMEX, the ultimate customer, which delays had a significant impact on our liquidity at various times in 2020. The situation improved in 2021 and 2022 with more regular payments, however if Opex or Akal are nonetheless unable to receive payment from PEMEX in a timely fashion going forward, we may be required to fund working capital or capital expenditure outlays to our Joint Ventures as shareholders, or we may not be paid related party revenues, dividends or any other distributions in a timely manner or at all. This could have a significant adverse effect on our operations and liquidity.

***We have experienced net losses since inception.***

We are continuing to establish and strengthen our history as an operator of jack-up rigs and as a result, the revenue and income potential of our business is still developing. We have experienced net losses since inception and this trend may continue. We may not be able to generate significant additional revenues in the future. We will be subject to the risks, uncertainties and difficulties frequently encountered by early-stage companies in evolving markets. We may not be able to successfully address any or all of these risks and uncertainties. Failure to adequately do so may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

***In previous years we and our independent registered public accounting firm identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may be unable to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud.***

We were established in 2016 and have since that time experienced significant expansion. This growth, combined with the loss of historically significant individuals and relationships in the legacy Paragon business, resulted in too few accounting personnel to adequately follow and maintain our accounting processes, and constrained our ability to deploy resources with which to address compliance with internal controls over financial reporting. Subsequently, in the course of preparing and auditing our consolidated financial statements, we and our independent registered public accounting firm respectively identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018, December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2020. In accordance with reporting requirements set forth by the SEC, a "material weakness" is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our Company's annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The material weakness identified related to lack of a sufficient number of competent financial reporting and accounting personnel to prepare and review our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with U.S. GAAP and financial reporting requirements set forth by the SEC.

To remedy our identified material weakness and other control deficiencies, we took significant measures to successfully remediate the previously identified material weakness by increasing the number of technically qualified accounting personnel to strengthen the financial reporting function and to improve the financial and systems control framework. We have performed testing and concluded that, through this testing, the previously identified material weakness relating to certain control deficiencies in the design and operation of our internal control over financial reporting in connection with the preparation of our consolidated financial statements has been remediated as of December 31, 2021 and no further material weakness has been identified.

We are continuing to take steps to strengthen our internal control over financial reporting, however, we could determine in the future that we have a material weakness in our internal controls.

***We rely on a limited number of customers, and we are exposed to the risk of default or material non-performance by customers.***

We have a limited number of customers and potential customers for our services. Mergers among oil and gas exploration and production companies have further reduced the number of available customers, which may increase the ability of potential customers to achieve pricing terms favorable to them as the jack-up drilling market recovers. Our five largest customers, subsidiaries of Perfomex, PTTEP, ENI Congo S.A., Vaalco Gabon S.A. and Addax Petroleum S.A. comprised 49% of our revenue, including related party revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022.

We are subject to the risk of late payment, non-payment or non-performance by our customers. Certain of our customers may be highly leveraged and subject to their own operating and regulatory risks and liquidity risk, and such risks could lead them to seek to cancel, repudiate or seek to renegotiate our drilling contracts or fail to fulfill their commitments to us under those contracts. These risks are heightened in periods of depressed market conditions. If we experience payment delays or non-payments, we may be unable to make scheduled payments which exposes the business to risk of litigation or defaults, including under our Financing Arrangements, which may have a material adverse effect on our business.

In addition, our drilling contracts provide for varying levels of indemnification and allocation of liabilities between our customers and us, including with respect to (i) well-control, reservoir liability and pollution, (ii) loss or damage to property, (iii) injury and death to persons arising from the drilling operations we perform and (iv) each respective parties' consequential losses, if any. Apportionment of these liabilities is generally dictated by standard industry practice and the particular requirements of a customer. Under our drilling contracts, liability with respect to personnel and property customarily is generally allocated so that we and our customers each assume liability for our respective personnel and property, or a "knock-for-knock" basis but that may not always be the case.

Customers have historically assumed most of the responsibility for, and agreed to indemnify contractors from, any loss, damage or other liability resulting from pollution or contamination, including clean-up and removal and third-party damages arising from operations under the contract when the source of the pollution originates from the well or reservoir; damages resulting from blow-outs or cratering of the well; and regaining control of, or re-drilling, the well and any associated pollution. However, there can be no assurance that these customers will be willing, or financially able, to indemnify us against all these risks. Customers may seek to cap or otherwise limit indemnities or narrow the scope of their coverage, reducing our level of contractual protection.

In addition, under the laws of certain jurisdictions, such indemnities may not be enforceable in all circumstances, for example if the cause of the damage was our gross negligence or willful misconduct. If that were the case we may incur liabilities in excess of those agreed in our contracts. Although we maintain certain insurance policies, the policy may not respond or insurance proceeds, if paid, may not fully compensate us in the event any key customers or potential customers default on their indemnity obligations to us. Our insurance policies do not cover damages arising from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of our personnel (which may include our subcontractors in some cases). In the event of a default or other material non-payment or non-performance by any customers, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

In addition, customers tend to request that we assume a limited amount of liability for pollution damage when such damage originates from our jack-up rigs and/or equipment above the surface of the water or is caused by our negligence, which liability generally has caps for ordinary negligence, with much higher caps or unlimited liability where the damage is caused by our gross negligence or willful misconduct, respectively. We may also be exposed to a risk of liability for reservoir or formation damage or loss of hydrocarbons when we provide, directly or indirectly (for example through our participation in joint ventures where there are parent company guarantees granted to the ultimate customer), integrated well services.

***We are reliant on positive cash flow generation from our Joint Ventures, and we may not receive funds in a timely manner.***

Our Mexican Joint Venture businesses operate five of our rigs, which we provide to them on bareboat lease contracts. These rigs are bundled with other services from other providers by the two customers of our Joint Venture businesses (Opex and Akal) and the customers in turn provide integrated drilling services to PEMEX, who is their sole ultimate customer. Within our operating and liquidity assumptions for 2023 and future years, we have made certain assumptions around the profitability, timing and amounts of receipts of cash from the Joint Venture businesses, whether by repayment of loans, payment of the bareboat or proposed distributions to shareholders, if declared. In addition, we had outstanding receivables due from the Joint Venture businesses on our balance sheet of $65.6 million as of December 31, 2022, collection of which is dependent on the customers of our Joint Venture businesses collecting amounts due to them from PEMEX.

------

The timing of payments made by PEMEX to suppliers, including the two customers of our Joint Venture businesses, has historically often been later than contractual terms and this has impacted our liquidity and continues to do so. Should PEMEX continue to not pay our Joint Venture businesses' customers in a timely manner, the Joint Venture businesses in turn will continue to not be able to settle receivable balances with us in a timely manner which would continue to adversely affect our working capital, and may necessitate seeking additional funding and there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain such funding on reasonable terms or at all.

***Our drilling contracts contain fixed terms and dayrates, and consequently we may not fully recoup our costs in the event of a rise in expenses, including operating and maintenance costs.***

Our operating costs are generally related to the number of rigs in operation and the cost level in each country or region where the rigs are located, which may increase depending on the circumstances. In contrast, the majority of our contracts have dayrates that are fixed over the contract term. These provisions allow us to adjust the dayrates based on stipulated cost increases, including wages, insurance and maintenance costs. However, actual cost increases may result from events or conditions that do not cause correlative changes to the applicable indices. The adjustments are typically performed on a semi-annual or annual basis. For these reasons, the timing and amount awarded as a result of such adjustments may differ from our actual cost increases, which could result in us being unable to recoup incurred costs.

Some long-term drilling contracts may contain rate adjustment provisions based on market dayrate fluctuations rather than cost increases. In such contracts, the dayrate could be adjusted lower during a period when costs of operation rise, which could adversely affect our financial performance. Shorter-term contracts normally do not contain escalation provisions. In addition, although our contracts typically contain provisions for either fixed or dayrate compensation during mobilization, these rates may not fully cover our costs of mobilization, and mobilization may be delayed for reasons beyond our control, increasing our costs, without additional compensation from the customer.

***We incur expenses, such as preparation costs, relocation costs, operating costs and maintenance costs, which we may not fully recoup from our customers, including where our jack-up rigs incur idle time between assignments.***

Our operating expenses and maintenance costs depend on a variety of factors, including crew costs, provisions, equipment, insurance, maintenance and repairs, and shipyard costs, many of which are beyond our control. Operating and maintenance costs will not necessarily fluctuate in proportion to changes in operating revenues and are affected by many factors, including inflation. In connection with new contracts or contract extensions, we incur expenses relating to preparation for operations, particularly when a jack-up rig moves to a new geographic location. These expenses may be significant. Expenses may vary based on the scope and length of such required preparations and the duration of the contractual period over which such expenditures are amortized. In addition, equipment maintenance costs fluctuate depending upon the type of activity that the jack-up rig is performing and the age and condition of the equipment. In situations where our jack-up rigs incur idle time between assignments, the opportunity to reduce the size of our crews on those jack-up rigs is limited, as the crews will be engaged in preparing the rig for its next contract, which could affect our ability to make reductions in crew costs, provisions, equipment, insurance, maintenance and repairs or shipyard costs.

When a jack-up rig faces longer idle periods, reductions in costs may not be immediate as some of the crew may be required to prepare the jack-up rig for stacking and maintenance in the stacking period. As of December 31, 2022, we had one jack-up rig that was "warm stacked," and kept ready for redeployment and retaining a maintenance crew, not including our jack-up rigs being activated to commence drilling operations as of such date. When idled or stacked, jack-up rigs do not earn revenues, but continue to require cash expenditures for crews, fuel, insurance, berthing and associated items. These expenses may be significant. Should units be idle for a longer period, we may be unable to reduce these expenses. This could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

***Inflation may adversely affect our operating results.***

Inflationary factors such as increases in the labor costs, material costs and overhead costs may adversely affect our operating results. Inflation has increased significantly across the globe in 2022 and the high levels of inflation continue, which impact our costs, as well as the global economy which can therefore impact oil prices and therefore demand for our services. Although we do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our results of operations to date, a continued high rate of inflation may have an adverse effect on our ability to maintain current levels of gross margin and general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue, if our dayrates do not increase with these increased costs and can impact overall demand for drilling services.

------

***We incur activation and reactivation costs, which we may not fully recoup from our customers.***

We have incurred, and may further incur, significant costs activating, reactivating and mobilizing our fleet as contracts have been secured. In addition, as of March 1, 2023, we had one rig warm stacked which is available for contracting. This rig may require additional activation or reactivation costs before commencing operations, if contracted. In addition, we have an order with Keppel to acquire two newbuild jack-up rigs scheduled for delivery in 2025. In connection with contract commencement of any of our newbuild jack-up rigs, we will incur costs relating to the activation of such newbuild rigs. These costs are significant and historically have been in the range of $11 million to $14 million per newbuild jack-up rig activated and may be higher dependent upon the circumstances of the rig activation. Costs vary based on the scope and length of such required preparations and fluctuate depending upon the type of activity that the rig is intended to perform.

In addition, construction of our newbuild jack-up rigs and maintenance of our active fleet or reactivation of our warm stacked rig, are subject to risks of delay or cost overruns, including inherent cost in any large construction project from numerous factors, including shortages of equipment, materials or skilled labor, unscheduled delays in the delivery of ordered materials and equipment or shipyard construction, the failure of equipment to meet quality and/or performance standards, financial or operating difficulties experienced by equipment vendors or the shipyard, unanticipated actual or purported change orders, the inability to obtain required permits or approvals, unanticipated cost increases between order and delivery, design or engineering changes, and work stoppages and other labor disputes. Risks include adverse weather conditions or any other events such as yard closures due to epidemics or pandemics, terrorist acts, war, piracy or civil unrest (which may or may not qualify as force majeure events in the relevant contract). Significant cost overruns or delays could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, failure to deliver a newbuild rig or to reactivate a rig on time may result in the delay of revenue from that rig. Newbuild jack-up rigs and recently reactivated rigs may also experience difficulties following delivery or reactivation or other unexpected operational problems that could result in uncompensated downtime or the cancellation or termination of drilling contracts, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

***The limited availability of qualified personnel in the locations in which we operate may result in higher operating costs as the offshore drilling industry recovers.***

Competition for skilled and other labor required for our drilling operations has increased in recent years as the number of rigs activated or added to worldwide fleets has increased, and this may continue to rise. In some regions, the limited availability of qualified personnel in combination with local regulations focusing on crew composition are expected to further impact the supply of qualified offshore drilling crews. In addition, during industry down-cycles, such as the extended downturn experienced over the past few years, qualified personnel may elect to seek alternative employment and may not return to the offshore drilling industry immediately during periods of recovery, if at all, which may have the effect of further reducing the supply of qualified personnel.

Personnel salaries across the jack-up drilling market are affected by the cyclical nature of the offshore drilling industry, particularly during industry down-cycles. As the jack-up drilling market continues to recover, the tightness of labor supply within the industry has caused upward pressure on wages and make it more difficult or costly for us to staff and service our rigs. Inflation levels can exacerbate the impact on wages. Furthermore, as a result of any increased competition for qualified personnel, we may experience a reduction in the experience level of our personnel, which could lead to higher downtime and more operating incidents. Such developments could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Furthermore, offshore drilling personnel (both employees and contractors) in certain regions, including those personnel who are employed on rigs operating for example in West Africa, Middle East, Mexico and Europe, are represented by collective bargaining agreements. Pursuant to these agreements, we are required to contribute certain amounts to retirement funds and pension plans and are restricted in our ability to dismiss employees. In addition, individuals covered by these collective bargaining agreements may be working under agreements that are subject to salary negotiation. These negotiations could result in higher personnel or other increased costs or increased operating restrictions.

***If we are unable to attract and retain highly skilled personnel who are qualified and able to work in the locations in which we operate it could adversely affect our operations.***

We require highly skilled personnel in the right locations to operate and provide technical services and support for our business. At a minimum, all offshore personnel are required to complete Basic Offshore Safety Induction and Emergency Training ("BOSIET") or a similar offshore survival and training course. We may also require additional training certifications prior to employment with us, depending on the location of the drilling and related technical requirements. In addition to direct costs associated with BOSIET, other training courses and required training materials, there may be indirect costs to personnel (such as

------

travel costs and opportunity costs) which have the effect of limiting the flow of new qualified personnel into the offshore drilling industry.

In addition to the technical certification requirements, our ability to operate worldwide depends on our ability to obtain the necessary visas and work permits for such personnel to travel in and out of, and to work in, the jurisdictions in which we operate. Governmental actions in some of the jurisdictions in which we operate may make it difficult for us to move our personnel in and out of these jurisdictions by delaying or withholding the approval of these permits. This includes local content laws which restrict or otherwise effect our crew composition. If we are not able to obtain visas and work permits for the employees we need for operating our rigs on a timely basis, or for third-party technicians needed for maintenance or repairs, we might not be able to perform our obligations under our drilling contracts, which could allow our customers to cancel the contracts. These factors could increase competition for highly-skilled personnel throughout the offshore drilling industry, which may indirectly affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The travel and other restrictions implemented in response to the COVID-19 pandemic have made it difficult, and may continue to make it difficult, to transport personnel to our rigs which has impacted operations. Furthermore, the unexpected loss of members of management, qualified personnel or a significant number of employees due to disease, disability or death, could have a material adverse effect on us.

***We have established, and may from time to time be a party to certain joint venture or other contractual arrangements with partners that introduce additional risks to our business.***

We have established, and may again in the future establish, relationships with partners, whether through the formation of joint ventures with local participation or through other contractual arrangements. For example, in Mexico, our operations have been structured through the Joint Venture structures with our local partner in Mexico, CME, to provide rigs to two customers (Opex and Akal) providing integrated well services to PEMEX, pursuant to two contracts ("PEMEX Contracts"). We commenced operations under the first PEMEX Contract in August 2019 and under the second contract in March 2020.

We believe that opportunities involving partners may arise from time to time and we may enter into such arrangements. We may not realize the expected benefits of any such arrangements and such arrangements may introduce additional risks to our business. In order to establish or preserve our relationship with our partners, we may agree to risks and contributions of resources that are proportionately greater than the returns we could receive, which could reduce our income and return on our investment in such arrangements. In certain joint ventures or other contractual relationships with our partners, we may transfer certain ownership stakes in one or more of our rig-owning subsidiaries and/or accept having less control over decisions made in the ordinary course of business. In certain arrangements with our local partners we may also guarantee the performance of their obligations under the relevant contract and we may not be able to enforce any contractual indemnifications we obtain from such parties. Any reduction in our ownership of our rig-owning subsidiaries and/or control over decisions made in the ordinary course of business could significantly reduce our income and return on our investment in such arrangements.

Our operations involving partners are subject to risks, including (i) disagreement with our partner as to how to manage the drilling operations being conducted; (ii) the inability of our partner to meet their obligations to us, the joint venture or our customer, as applicable; (iii) litigation between our partner and us regarding joint-operational matters and (iv) failure of a partner to comply with applicable laws, including sanctions and anti-money laundering laws and regulations, and indemnity obligations. The happening of any of the foregoing events may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, we rely on the internal controls and financial reporting controls of our subsidiaries and if any of our subsidiaries, including joint ventures which are subsidiaries, fail to maintain effective controls or to comply with applicable standards, this could make it difficult to comply with applicable reporting and audit standards. For example, the preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires the prompt receipt of financial statements from each of our subsidiaries and associated companies, some of whom rely on the prompt receipt of financial statements from each of their subsidiaries and associated companies. Additionally, in certain circumstances, we may be required to file with our annual report on Form 20-F, or a registration statement filed with the SEC, financial information of associated companies which has been audited in conformity with SEC rules and regulations and applicable audit standards. If we are unable for any reason to procure such financial statements or audited financial statements, as applicable, from our subsidiaries and associated companies, we may be unable to comply with applicable SEC reporting standards.

------

***We are exposed to the risk of default or material non-performance by subcontractors.***

In order to provide drilling services to our customers, we rely on subcontractors to perform certain services. We may be liable to our customers in the event of non-performance by any such subcontractor. We cannot ensure that our back-to-back arrangements with our subcontractors, contractual indemnities or insurance arrangements will provide adequate protection for the risks we face. To the extent that there is any back-to-back arrangement, contractual indemnity and/or receipt of evidence of insurance from a subcontractor, there can be no assurance that our subcontractors will be in a financial position to honor such arrangements in the event a claim is made against us by a customer and we seek to pass on the related damages to the subcontractor. In addition, under the laws of certain jurisdictions, there may be circumstances in which such indemnities are not enforceable. The foregoing could result in us having to assume liabilities in excess of those agreed in our contracts, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

***Outbreaks of epidemic and pandemic diseases, including the COVID-19 pandemic, and governmental responses thereto have and could further adversely affect our business.***

Public health threats, pandemics and epidemics, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, including new variants thereof, influenza and other highly communicable diseases or viruses, outbreaks of which have from time to time occurred in various parts of the world in which we operate, and the measures taken to address these, could adversely impact our operations, the timing of completion of any outstanding or future newbuilding projects, as well as the operations of our customers.

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has caused operational disruptions, including delays, unavailability of normal infrastructure and services which cause limited access to, or movement of equipment, critical goods, and personnel; and we may continue to face these disruptions although, with a lesser degree than in the previous three years. Movement of rigs between countries has been impacted by border closures and reduced availability of customs officials. Our crews work on a rotation basis, with a substantial portion relying on international air transport for rotation. Disruptions due to quarantine following positive testing on our rigs have impacted the cost of rotating crews and the ability to maintain a full crew on all rigs at a given time. Global disruptions in the supply chain and industrial production and inflationary pressures, including interest rate rises, may have a negative impact on our ability to secure necessary supplies for our rigs and services, among other potential consequences attendant to epidemic and pandemic diseases.

We have also been impacted by the measures that government and companies around the world took, and may continue to take to minimize the impact of COVID-19, such as requiring employees to work remotely, imposing travel restrictions and temporarily closing businesses. These restrictions, and future prevention and mitigation measures, have had and may continue to have, although to a less extent than in 2021 and 2022, an adverse impact on global economic conditions, which could materially and adversely affect our future operations. Uncertainties regarding the economic impact of the COVID-19 outbreak is likely to result in sustained market turmoil, which could also negatively impact our business, financial condition and cash flows. These negative impacts could continue or worsen, even after the pandemic itself diminishes or ends.

We also face risks in connection with the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and related restrictions on our on-shore staff. For example, increased reliance on remote working has increased and may continue to increase the likelihood of cyber security attacks.

The extent of the continued impact of COVID-19 on our operational and financial performance will depend on future developments, including the duration, spread and intensity of the pandemic, any resurgences or mutation of the virus, the continued availability of vaccines and their global deployment, the development of effective treatments, the imposition of effective public safety and other protective measures and the public's response to such matters, all of which are uncertain and difficult to predict considering the rapidly evolving landscape. The COVID-19 pandemic has had and may continue to have, an adverse impact on, our business including our ability to keep all rigs operational at all times, if the virus worsens. While many of the restrictions and measures initially implemented during 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic have since been softened or even lifted in varying degrees in different locations around the world, and the distribution of COVID-19 vaccines during 2021 and 2022 aided to initiate an economic recovery from such pandemic, the uncertainty regarding new potential virus, including any resurgence or mutation, may in the future adversely affect global economic activity or prompt the re-imposition of certain restrictions and measures. Furthermore, even if not required by governmental authorities, increases in COVID-19 cases and the emergence of new variants, may result in significantly reduced economic activity, particularly in affected areas, which could result in a sharp reduction in the demand for oil and a decline in oil prices as occurred during 2020.

Our crews generally work on a rotation basis, with a substantial portion relying on international air transport for rotation. Public health threats, such as COVID-19, Ebola, influenza, SARS, the Zika virus and other highly communicable diseases or viruses,

------

outbreaks of which have from time to time occurred in various parts of the world in which we operate, could adversely impact our operations, and the operations of our customers. In addition, public health threats in any area, including areas where we do not operate, could disrupt international transportation. Any such disruptions could impact the cost of rotating our crews, and possibly impact our ability to maintain a full crew on all rigs at a given time. Any of these public health threats and related consequences could adversely affect our business and financial results. We have experienced and may continue to experience disruption in crewing our rigs as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic which has impacted our rig operations, although to a lesser extent in the last two years. Such disruptions could have a material impact on our business.

Given the dynamic nature of those events, we cannot reasonably estimate the period of time that the COVID-19 pandemic and related market conditions will persist or any changes in their severity, the full extent of the impact they will have on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows or the pace or extent of any subsequent recovery.

***We rely on a limited number of suppliers and may be unable to obtain needed supplies on a timely basis or at all.***

We rely on certain third parties to provide supplies and services necessary for our offshore drilling operations, including drilling equipment suppliers, catering and machinery suppliers. There are a limited number of available suppliers throughout the offshore drilling industry and past consolidation among suppliers, combined with a high volume of drilling rigs under construction, may result in a shortage of supplies and services, thereby increasing the cost of supplies and/or potentially inhibiting the ability of suppliers to deliver on time.

With respect to certain items, such as blow-out preventers and drilling packages, we are dependent on the original equipment manufacturer for repair and replacement of the item or its spare parts. We maintain limited inventory of certain items, such as spare parts, and sourcing such items may involve long-lead times (six months or longer). Standardization across our fleet assists with our inventory management, however the inability to obtain certain items may be exacerbated if such items are required on multiple jack-up rigs simultaneously. Furthermore, our suppliers may experience disruptions and delays in light of the current global geopolitical tensions and instabilities, which could result in delays in receipt of supplies and services and/or force majeure notices.

If we are unable to source certain items from the original equipment manufacturer for any reason, including as a result of disruptions experienced by our suppliers, or if our inventory is rendered unusable by the original equipment manufacturer due to safety concerns, resulting delays could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and result in rig downtime and delays in the repair and maintenance of our jack-up rigs. In addition, we may be unable to activate our jack-up rigs in response to market opportunities.

***We may be unable to obtain, maintain and/or renew the permits necessary for our operations or experience delays in obtaining such permits, including the class certifications of rigs.***

The operation of our jack-up rigs requires certain governmental approvals, the number and prerequisites of which vary, depending on the jurisdictions in which we operate our jack-up rigs. Depending on the jurisdiction, these governmental approvals may involve public hearings and costly undertakings on our part. We may not be able to obtain such approvals or such approvals may not be obtained in a timely manner. If we fail to secure the necessary approvals or permits in a timely manner, our customers may have the right to terminate or seek to renegotiate their drilling contracts to our detriment.

Offshore drilling rigs, although not self-propelled units, are nevertheless registered in international shipping or maritime registers and are subject to the rules of a classification society, which allows such rigs to be registered in an international shipping or maritime register. The classification society certifies that a drilling rig is "in-class," signifying that such drilling rig has been built and maintained in accordance with the rules of the relevant classification society and complies with applicable rules and regulations of the drilling rig's country of registry, or flag state, and the international conventions to which that country is a party. In addition, where surveys are required by international conventions and corresponding laws and ordinances of a flag state, the classification society will undertake them on application or by official order, acting on behalf of the authorities concerned.

Our jack-up rigs are built and maintained in accordance with the rules of a classification society, currently being American Bureau of Shipping. The class status varies depending on a jack-up rig's status (stacked or in operation). Operational rigs are certified by the relevant classification society as being in compliance with the mandatory requirements of the relevant national authorities in the countries in which our jack-up rigs are flagged and other applicable international rules and regulations. If any jack-up rig does not maintain the appropriate class certificates for its present status (stacked or in operation), fails any periodic survey or special survey and/or fails to comply with mandatory requirements of the relevant national authorities of its flag state, the jack-up rig may be unable to carry on operations and, depending on its status (stacked or in operation), may not be insured or

------

insurable. Any such inability to carry on operations or be employed could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

***We are a holding company and are dependent upon cash flows from subsidiaries and equity method investments to meet our obligations. If our operating subsidiaries or equity method investments experience sufficiently adverse changes in their financial condition or results of operations, or we otherwise become unable to arrange further financing to satisfy our debt or other obligations as they become due, we may become subject to insolvency proceedings.***

Our only material assets are our interests in our subsidiaries. We conduct our operations through, and all of our assets are owned by, our subsidiaries and our operating revenues and cash flows are generated by our subsidiaries. As a result, cash we obtain from our subsidiaries is the principal source of liquidity that we use to meet our obligations. Contractual provisions and/or local laws, as well as our subsidiaries' financial condition, operating requirements and debt requirements, may limit our ability to obtain cash from subsidiaries that we require to pay our expenses or otherwise meet our obligations when due. Applicable tax laws may also subject such payments to us by subsidiaries to further taxation.

If we are unable to transfer cash from our subsidiaries, then even if we have sufficient resources on a consolidated basis to meet our obligations when due, we may not be permitted to make the necessary transfers from our subsidiaries to meet our debt and other obligations when due. The terms of certain of our Financing Arrangements, which are described under "Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Our Existing Indebtedness," also (i) limit certain intragroup cash transfers and our ability to incur new secured financing and (ii) require us to maintain reserves of cash, which could inhibit our ability to meet our debt and other obligations when due.

***Our business and operations involve numerous operating hazards.***

Our operations are subject to hazards inherent in the drilling industry, such as blowouts, reservoir damage, loss of production, loss of well control, lost or stuck drill strings, equipment defects, punch-throughs, craterings, fires, explosions and pollution. Contract drilling and well servicing require the use of heavy equipment and exposure to hazardous conditions, which may subject us to liability claims by employees, customers, subcontractors and third parties. These hazards can cause personal injury or loss of life, severe damage to or destruction of property and equipment, pollution or environmental damage, claims by jack-up rig personnel, third parties or customers and suspension of operations. Our fleet is also subject to hazards inherent in marine operations, either while on-site or during mobilization, such as capsizing, sinking, grounding, collision, damage from or due to severe weather, including hurricanes, and marine life infestations. For instance, during Hurricane Harvey in the Gulf of Mexico in 2017, the hurricane caused a drillship owned by a subsidiary of Paragon (as defined below) to break loose from its moorings and it was subsequently involved in a series of collisions. Operations may also be suspended because of machinery breakdowns, abnormal drilling conditions, failure of subcontractors to perform or supply goods or services or personnel shortages. We customarily provide contractual indemnities to our customers and subcontractors for claims that could be asserted by us relating to damage to or loss of our equipment, including rigs and claims that could be asserted by us or our employees relating to personal injury or loss of life.

Damage to the environment could also result from our operations, particularly through spillage of fuel, lubricants or other chemicals and substances used in drilling operations, or extensive uncontrolled fires. We may also be subject to fines and penalties and to property, environmental, natural resource and other damage claims, and we may not be able to limit our exposure through contractual indemnities, insurance or otherwise.

Consistent with standard industry practice, customers have historically assumed, and indemnify contractors against, any loss, damage or other liability resulting from pollution or contamination when the source of the pollution originates from the well or reservoir, including damages resulting from blow-outs or cratering of the well, regaining control of, or re-drilling, the well and any associated pollution. However, there can be no assurances that these customers will be willing or financially able to indemnify us against all these risks. Customers may seek to cap indemnities or narrow the scope of their coverage, reducing a contractor's level of contractual protection. In addition, customers tend to request that contractors assume (i) limited liability for pollution damage above the water when such damage has been caused by the contractor's jack-up rigs and/or equipment and (ii) liability for pollution damage when pollution has been caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of the contractor or its personnel. Consistent with standard industry practice, we may therefore assume a limited amount of liability for pollution damage when such damage originates from our jack-up rigs and/or equipment above the surface of the water or is caused by our negligence, in which case such liability generally has caps for ordinary negligence, with much higher caps or unlimited liability where the damage is caused by our gross negligence. When we provide integrated well services, we may also be exposed to a risk of liability for reservoir or formation damage or loss of hydrocarbons.

------

In addition, a court may decide that certain indemnities in our current or future contracts are not enforceable. For example, in a 2012 decision in a case related to the fire and explosion that took place on the unaffiliated Deepwater Horizon Mobile Offshore Drilling rig in the Gulf of Mexico in April 2010 (the "2010 Deepwater Horizon Incident") (to which we were not a party), the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana invalidated certain contractual indemnities for punitive damages and for civil penalties under the U.S. Clean Water Act under a drilling contract governed by U.S. maritime law as a matter of public policy.

If a significant accident or other event occurs that is not fully covered by our insurance or an enforceable or recoverable indemnity from a customer, the occurrence could adversely affect us. Moreover, pollution and environmental risks generally are not totally insurable.

Our insurance policies and contractual rights to indemnity may not adequately cover losses, and we do not have insurance coverage or rights to indemnification for all risks. In addition, where we do have such insurance coverage, the amount recoverable under insurance may be less than the related impact on enterprise value after a loss or not cover all potential consequences of an incident and include annual aggregate policy limits. As a result, we retain the risk through self-insurance for any losses in excess of these limits or that are not insurable. Any such lack of reimbursement may cause us to incur substantial costs or may otherwise result in losses. No assurance can be made that we will be able to maintain adequate insurance in the future at rates that we consider reasonable, or that we will be able to obtain insurance against certain risks. We could decide to retain more risk through self-insurance in the future. This self-insurance results in a higher risk of losses, which could be material.

***Our business could be materially and adversely affected by severe or unseasonable weather where we have operations.***

Our business could be materially and adversely affected by severe weather, particularly in the Gulf of Mexico and the North Sea. Many experts believe global climate change could increase the frequency and severity of extreme weather conditions.

Repercussions of severe or unseasonable weather conditions may include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• evacuation of personnel and inoperability of equipment resulting in curtailment of services;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• weather-related damage to offshore drilling rigs resulting in suspension of operations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• weather-related damage to our facilities and project work sites;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• inability to deliver materials to jobsites in accordance with contract schedules;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• fluctuations in demand for oil and natural gas, including possible decreases during unseasonably warm winters; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• loss of productivity.

In addition, acute or chronic physical impacts of climate change, such as sea level rise, coastal storm surge and hurricane-strength winds may damage our jack-up rigs. Any such extreme weather events may result in increased operating costs or decreases in revenue, which could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

***Our information technology systems are subject to cybersecurity risks and threats.***

We depend on digital technologies to conduct our offshore and onshore operations, to collect payments from customers and to pay vendors and employees. Additionally, since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, a certain proportion of our onshore employee base have either been required to or encouraged to work remotely part of their time which has made us more dependent on digital technology to run our business.

Our data protection measures and measures taken by our customers and vendors may not prevent unauthorized access of information technology systems, and when such unauthorized access occurs, we, our customer or vendors may not detect the incident in time to prevent harm or damage. Threats to our information technology systems and the systems of our customers and vendors, associated with cybersecurity risks or attacks continue to grow. Such threats may derive from human error, fraud or malice or may be the result of accidental technological failure. Additionally, due to Russia's invasion of the Ukraine, we may be subject to elevated cybersecurity risk. Moreover, cyberattacks against Ukrainian government and other countries in the region have been reported in connection with the aforementioned invasion, while the U.S. government has warned of the potential for

------

Russian cyberattacks. Our drilling operations or other business operations could also be targeted by individuals or groups seeking to sabotage or disrupt our information technology systems and networks, or to steal data. A successful cyberattack could materially disrupt our operations, including the safety of our operations, or lead to an unauthorized release of information or alteration of information on our systems. In addition, breaches to our systems and systems of our customers and vendors could go unnoticed for some period of time. A breach could also originate from, or compromise, our customers' and vendors' or other third-party networks outside of our control. A breach may also result in legal claims or proceedings against us by our shareholders, employees, customers, vendors and governmental authorities, both US and non-US. Any such attack or other breach of our information technology systems, or failure to effectively comply with applicable laws and regulations concerning privacy, data protection and information security, could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial results.

Remote working increases the risk of cyber security issues. We have been subject to cyberattacks. For example, we have been targeted by parties using fraudulent "spoof" and "phishing" emails and other means to misappropriate information or to introduce viruses or other malware through "trojan horse" programs to our computers. In response to these attacks and to prevent future attacks, we have engaged, and may in the future engage, third party vendors to review and supplement our defensive measures and assist us in our effort to eliminate, detect, prevent, remediate, mitigate or alleviate cyber or other security problems, although such measures may not be effective.

Given the increasing sophistication and evolving nature of the above mentioned threats, we cannot rule out the possibility of them occurring in the future and there can be no assurance that our defensive measures will be adequate to prevent them in the future. The costs to us to detect, prevent, remediate, mitigate or alleviate cyber or other security problems, viruses, worms, malicious software programs, phishing schemes and security vulnerabilities could be significant and our efforts to address these problems may not be successful. We continue to face the risk of cybersecurity attacks or breaches which could have a material impact on us and could have a material impact on our business or operations.

***We may be subject to litigation, arbitration and other proceedings that could have an adverse effect on us.***

We are from time to time involved in various litigation matters, and we anticipate that we will be involved in litigation matters from time to time in the future. The operating hazards inherent in our business expose us to litigation, including personal injury and employment-dispute litigation, environmental and climate change litigation, contractual litigation with customers, subcontractors and/or suppliers, intellectual property litigation, litigation regarding historical liabilities of acquired companies, tax or securities litigation and maritime lawsuits, including the possible arrest of our jack-up rigs. Risks associated with litigation include potential negative outcomes, the costs associated with asserting our claims or defending against such litigation, and the diversion of management's attention to these matters. Accordingly, current and future litigation and the outcome of such litigation could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

***We may be subject to claims related to Paragon and the financial restructuring of its predecessor.***

Paragon Offshore Limited ("Paragon") was incorporated on July 18, 2017 as part of the financial restructuring of its predecessor, Paragon Offshore plc, which commenced proceedings under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code on February 14, 2016.

We believe that substantially all of the material claims against Paragon Offshore plc that arose prior to the date of the bankruptcy filing were addressed during the Chapter 11 proceedings and have been or will be resolved in accordance with the plan of reorganization and the order of the Bankruptcy Court confirming such plan. If, however, we are subject to claims that are attributable to Paragon Offshore plc, or any of its subsidiary undertakings, including in accordance with certain litigation arrangements in place prior to the acquisition of Paragon, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

**RISK FACTORS RELATED TO OUR FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS**

***We have significant debt maturities in the coming years.***

All of our debt, totaling $1,582.8 million in principal amount, matures between 2023 and 2026. In 2022, we refinanced all of our secured debt, which was scheduled to mature in 2023, to mature in 2025. We do not expect we will have cash resources to pay this debt so we expect we will need to refinance or extend this debt by 2025, and any refinancing could be at higher rates or subject to more onerous restrictions and if we are unable to extend or refinance our secured debt this could result in enforcement by creditors and insolvency for us.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

------

***Future cash flows may be insufficient to meet obligations under the terms of our Financing Arrangements.***

As of December 31, 2022, we had $1,582.8 million in principal amount of debt outstanding (excluding back-end fees, deferred finance charges and effective interest rate adjustments), representing 52.7% of our assets. As of December 31, 2022, our principal debt instruments included the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $150.0 million drawn on our New DNB Facility;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $154.0 million drawn on our Hayfin Facility;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $259.2 million outstanding to Keppel under delivery financing arrangement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $669.6 million outstanding to PPL under delivery financing arrangements; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $350.0 million outstanding under our Convertible Bonds.

We also have agreed to acquire two new rigs from Keppel with delivery extended to 2025, for a total purchase price of $294.8 million. Keppel has agreed to provide financing for a total of $260.0 million for these rigs, and upon delivery our debt obligations will increase accordingly.

Our New DNB Facility and Hayfin Facility are secured by mortgages over five and three of our jack-up rigs, respectively, pledges over shares of and related guarantees from certain of our rig-owning subsidiaries who provide this security as owners of the mortgaged rigs and general assignments of rig insurances, certain rig earnings, accounts charters, intragroup loans and management agreements from our related rig-owning subsidiaries.

Our delivery financing arrangements are secured by the relevant rigs that are financed, being eight rigs pledged to PPL and three rigs pledged to Keppel. In relation to eight of our delivered PPL rigs, the respective rig owners' financial obligations are cross-guaranteed and cross-collateralized. In relation to three of our delivered Keppel rigs, secured financing is in place. We have committed delivery financing for a significant portion of the purchase price in relation to our two undelivered rigs.

Our New DNB Facility and Hayfin Facility and our shipyard financings mature in 2025, and our Convertible Bonds mature in May 2023.

In October 2022, the Company entered into agreements with its secured creditors to refinance all of its secured debt maturing in 2023 to 2025. As part of these agreements, the Company extended the debt maturity for its shipyard delivery financing arrangement with PPL and maturity of its secured debt facility with Hayfin to 2025; deferred its obligations to make payments to purchase the undelivered rigs from Keppel to fall due in July 2025 ("Vale") and September 2025 ("Var"); and agreed arrangements for the sale of three newbuild rigs the Company previously agreed to purchase from Keppel to an undisclosed third-party. In addition, under the New DNB Facility and the amended Hayfin Facility and Keppel Facilities, we had undertaken to refinance the Convertible Bonds, which we did in February 2023 by raising $250.0 million gross proceeds through the issuance of the New Convertible Bonds, due in February 2028 and $150.0 million gross proceeds through the issuance of the Senior Secured Bonds, due in February 2026. The proceeds for these financings will be applied to repay our $350 million Convertible Bonds due May 2023. While we have refinanced substantially all of our debt to 2025 and later, a substantial portion falls due in 2025 and we will need to refinance that debt and there is no assurance that we will be able to refinance our debt before it falls due on reasonable terms, or at all. Please see - "Item 5.B. Liquidity and Capital Resources – Our Existing Indebtedness."

These obligations will require significant cash payments, or we will need to refinance such debt. Our future cash flows may be insufficient to meet all of these debt obligations and contractual commitments and we do not expect to have sufficient cash to repay all of these facilities at their currently scheduled due dates and expect we will need to refinance at least some of these facilities, and if we are unable to repay or refinance our debt and make other debt service payments as they fall due, we would face defaults under such debt instruments which could result in cross-defaults under other debt instruments.

Our ability to fund planned expenditures and amortization payments related to our delivery financing arrangements, will be dependent upon our future performance, which will be subject to prevailing economic conditions, industry cycles and financial, business, regulatory and other factors affecting our operations, many of which are beyond our control.

------

We expect that a significant portion of our cash flow from operations will be dedicated to the payment of interest and principal on our debt, and consequently will not be available for other purposes. If we are unable to repay our indebtedness as it becomes due at maturity, we may need to refinance our debt, raise new debt, sell assets or repay the debt with the proceeds from equity offerings—however, covenants in certain of our credit facilities limit our ability to take some of these actions without consent. If we are not able to borrow additional funds, raise other capital or utilize available cash on hand, a default could occur under certain or all of our Financing Arrangements. If we are able to refinance our debt or raise new debt or equity financing, such financing might not be on favorable terms. For the substantial doubt over our ability to continue as a going concern, please refer to Note 1 - General of our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included herein.

If we fail to make a payment when due under our newbuilding contracts, fail to take delivery of our newbuild jack-up rigs in accordance with the relevant contract terms or otherwise breach the terms of any of our newbuilding contracts we could be liable for penalties and damages under such contracts in which case our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

***Liquidity risk could impair our ability to fund operations and jeopardize our financial condition, growth and prospects.***

We are largely dependent on cash generated by our operations, cash on hand, borrowings under our Financing Arrangements and potential issuances of equity or long-term debt to cover our operating expenses, service our indebtedness and fund our other liquidity needs. The level of cash available to us depends on numerous factors, including the dayrates we are paid by our customers, the price of oil, current global economic conditions, demand for our services, the level of utilization of our drilling rigs, our ability to control and reduce costs, our access to capital markets and amounts available to us under our Financing Arrangements and amounts received from our JVs. One or more of such factors could be negatively impacted and our sources of liquidity could be insufficient to fund our operations and service our obligations such that we may require capital in excess of the amount available from those sources. Our access to funding sources in amounts adequate to finance our operations and planned capital expenditures and repay our indebtedness on terms that are acceptable could be impaired by factors such as negative views and expectations about us, the oil and gas industry or the economy in general and disruptions in the financial markets.

Our financial flexibility will be severely constrained if we experience a significant decrease in cash generated from our operations or are unable to maintain our access to or secure new sources of financing. If additional financing sources are unavailable, or not available on reasonable terms, our financial condition, results of operations, growth and future prospects could be materially adversely affected, and we may be unable to continue as a going concern. As such, we cannot assure you that cash flow generated from our business and other sources of cash, including future borrowings under Financing Arrangements and debt financings and new debt and equity financings, will be sufficient to enable us to pay our indebtedness and to fund our other liquidity needs. For the substantial doubt over our ability to continue as a going concern, please refer to Note 1 - General of our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included herein.

We currently have limited cash resources and we have limited incremental facilities and limited or no ability to draw on any incremental credit facilities without lender consent. We are also subject to minimum liquidity covenants. Please see "Item 5.B. Liquidity and Capital Resources – Our Existing Indebtedness." for further details of the agreed terms and conditions precedent to their effectiveness. We have significant debt maturities in 2025 which will require us to raise additional financing and/or extend maturities and there is no assurance that we will be able to do so.

***As a result of our significant cash flow needs, we may be required to raise funds through the issuance of additional debt or equity, and in the event of lost market access, we may not be successful in doing so.***

Our cash flow needs, both in the short-term and long-term, include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• normal recurring operating expenses;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• planned and discretionary capital expenditures; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• repayment of debt and interest.

We have incurred significant losses since inception and are dependent on additional financing in order to fund any continued losses expected in the next 12 months and to meet our existing capital expenditure commitments and further execute on our planned capital expenditure program. The negative cash effects as a result of any potential future contract terminations may further extend the existing need for additional financing.

------

We currently have limited cash resources and we have limited or no ability to draw on credit facilities without lender consent. We have significant debt maturities and capital commitments in 2025. These maturities will require us to raise additional financing and/or extend maturities.

We may seek to raise additional capital in a number of ways, including accessing capital markets, obtaining additional lines of credit or disposing of assets. We may also issue additional securities and our subsidiaries may also issue securities in order to fund working capital, capital expenditures, such as activation, reactivation and mobilization costs, or other needs. Any such equity issuance would have the effect of diluting our existing shareholders. However, we can provide no assurance that any of these options will be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. Current capital market conditions as well as industry conditions and our debt levels could make it very difficult or impossible to raise capital until conditions improve. The current global economic conditions and related concerns of a global economic recession, instability in the global financial markets, financial turmoil and the current military action in Ukraine and sanctions implemented in response to that, in addition to the related global tensions, have impacted capital markets and this impact may continue.

We may delay or cancel discretionary capital expenditures as a result of our cash flow needs or otherwise, which could have certain adverse consequences, including delaying upgrades or equipment purchases that could make the affected rigs less competitive, adversely affect customer relationships and negatively impact our ability to contract such rigs.

***The covenants in certain of our Financing Arrangements impose operating and financial restrictions on us.***

Certain of our Financing Arrangements impose operating and financial restrictions on us. These restrictions may affect our flexibility in planning for, and reacting to, changes in our business or economic conditions and may otherwise prohibit or limit our ability to undertake certain business activities without consent of the lending banks. In addition, the restrictions contained in certain of our Financing Arrangements and future financing arrangements could impact our ability to withstand current or future economic or industry downturns, compete with others in our industry for strategic opportunities or operationally (to the extent our competitors are subject to less onerous restrictions) and may also limit our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, general corporate and other purposes. These restrictions include restrictions on (i) paying dividends and repurchasing our Shares, (ii) changing the general nature of our business, (iii) making financial investments, (iv) entering into certain secured capital markets indebtedness. Furthermore, a change of control event occurs if Mr. Tor Olav Trøim ceases to serve on our Board, Mr. Tor Olav Trøim ceases to maintain ownership of at least three million shares (subject to adjustment for certain transactions) or any person other than Mr. Tor Olav Trøim or persons collaborating or acting in concert with him obtain more than 30% of the voting power in the Company or control the appointment of the board, unless such new controlling shareholders are acceptable to the lenders.

The terms of certain of our Financing Arrangements require us to maintain specified financial ratios and to satisfy financial covenants. From June 2020 to August 2022, we obtained waivers from compliance with certain covenants and consents to defer certain interest payments, and we ultimately reached agreement with our secured creditors to defer certain payments and to amend financial covenants, including our minimum equity covenant under certain of our facilities. In October 2022, we entered into agreements with our secured creditors to refinance all our secured debt maturing in 2023 to 2025 and to extend delivery dates for our rigs by two years. Please see "Item 5.B. Liquidity and Capital Resources – Our Existing Indebtedness" for further details of the agreed terms. Moreover, in connection with any future waivers or amendments to our Financing Arrangements that we may obtain, our lenders may modify the terms of our Financing Arrangements or impose additional operating and financial restrictions on us. If we are unable to comply with any of the covenants in our current or future debt agreements, and we are unable to obtain a waiver or amendment from our lenders, a default could occur under the terms of those agreements.

Our secured facilities contain financial covenants. See "Item 5.B. Liquidity and Capital Resources -Our Existing Indebtedness." In addition, our Hayfin Facility agreement contains a requirement that we maintain minimum cash collateral equal to three months interest on the facility when the jack-up rigs providing security thereunder are not actively operating under an approved drilling contract (as defined in the Hayfin Facility agreement). In addition, if there is a change of circumstances that the lenders under certain of our Financing Arrangements believe has had, or is reasonably likely to have, a material adverse effect on our business, our ability to comply with our obligations under our Financing Arrangements and/or the security we have provided for our obligations, the lenders may have the right to declare a default.

The lenders under certain of our Financing Arrangements may also require replacement or additional security if the fair market value of the jack-up rigs over which security is provided is insufficient to meet the market value-to-loan covenant in our various agreements. In addition, the PPL Facility has a requirement that the Company should provide additional security if the average value of any rigs financed under the PPL arrangement falls below $75 million in 2022 or $80 million thereafter. Any impairment charges to our jack-up rigs or other investments and assets could adversely impact our ability to comply with the financial ratios

------

and tests in certain of our Financing Arrangements. Our Financing Arrangements also contain events of default which include non-payment, cross default, breach of covenants, insolvency and changes that have or are likely to have a material adverse effect on the relevant obligor's business, ability to perform obligations under any of such agreements or related security documents or jeopardize the security provided thereunder. If there is an event of default, the lenders under our Financing Arrangements may have the right to declare a default or may seek to negotiate changes to the covenants and/or require additional security as a condition of not doing so. Additionally, the DNB Facility and Hayfin Facility agreements contain a "Most Favored Nation" clause whereby the lenders thereunder have a right to amend the financial covenants to reflect any more lender-favorable covenants in any other agreement pursuant to which loans are provided to us, including amendments to our Financing Arrangements.

We may not be able to obtain our lenders' consent to waive or amend covenants that are beneficial for our business, which may impact our performance. Moreover, in connection with any future waivers or amendments to our Financing Arrangements that we may obtain, the terms of our Financing Arrangements may be modified to impose additional operating and financial restrictions on us. If we are unable to comply with any of the covenants in our current or future debt agreements, and we are unable to obtain a waiver or amendment from our lenders, a default could occur under the terms of those agreements.

If there is a default under our Financing Arrangements, this would enable the lenders thereunder to terminate their commitments to lend and accelerate the loan and declare all amounts borrowed due and payable or require the unwinding of certain guarantees provided under our DNB Facility. Our Financing Arrangements contain cross-default provisions, meaning that if we are in default under any of our Financing Arrangements, this would result in a cross-default under our other Financing Arrangements and shipyard loans as well as our convertible bonds, and enable such creditors to declare all amounts payable (i.e. "accelerated") thereunder. We do not have funds to pay amounts outstanding under such debt instruments if amounts outstanding thereunder are accelerated. This could result in us seeking protection under bankruptcy laws or making an insolvency filing.

***Our Financing Arrangements allow one of our secured creditors, under certain conditions, to cancel planned newbuilding contracts thereby reducing our premium fleet.***

Keppel has the right to terminate our two newbuilding contracts with no refund of deposits, or other compensation, if it receives an offer from a third party, unless Borr purchases the rigs at the offer price within a certain time period. It is difficult to predict if and when any of these options will be exercised, and whether we would seek (or be able to raise) alternate financing at that time in order to retain the relevant rigs and newbuilding contracts.

***We may require additional working capital or capital expenditures, other than our Financing Arrangements, from time to time and we may not be able to arrange the required or desired financing.*** 

We may need to borrow from time to time to fund working capital and capital expenditures, such as activation, reactivation and mobilization costs and/or to fund the issuance of guarantees required for temporary import of rigs, customs bonds, performance guarantees or other needs, subject to compliance with the covenants in certain of our Financing Arrangements. However, our business is capital intensive and to the extent we do not generate sufficient cash from operations and to the extent we are unable to draw under our credit facilities, we may need to raise additional funds through public or private debt or equity offerings or through bank, shipyard or other financing arrangements to fund our capital expenditures, and in industry down cycles, our operating expenses. We may not be able to raise additional indebtedness as this is dependent on numerous factors as set out below. Any additional indebtedness which we are able to raise may include additional revolving credit facilities, term loans, bonds, refinancing of our Financing Arrangements or other forms of indebtedness. We may also issue additional Shares or other securities and our subsidiaries may also issue securities in order to fund working capital, capital expenditures, such as activation, reactivation and mobilization costs, or other needs. Any such equity issuance would have the effect of diluting our existing shareholders.

Our ability to incur additional indebtedness or refinance our current Financing Arrangements will depend on a number of factors, including the general condition of the lending markets and capital markets, credit availability from banks and other financial institutions, investors' confidence in us, and our financial position at such time, including our financial performance, cash flow generation and the financial performance of our subsidiaries, level of indebtedness and compliance with covenants in debt agreements, tax and securities laws that may impact raising capital, among others. Any additional indebtedness or refinancing of our Financing Arrangements may result in higher interest rates or further encumbrances on our jack-up rigs and may require us to comply with more onerous covenants, which could further restrict our business operations. Increases in interest rates will increase interest costs on our variable interest rate debt instruments, which would reduce our cash flows. If we are not able to maintain a level of cash flows sufficient to operate our business in the ordinary course according to our business plan and are unable to incur additional indebtedness or refinance our Financing Arrangements, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.

***We face risks in connection with delivery financing arrangements in place with Keppel***

We have an order book with Keppel for two newbuild jack-up rigs as of December 31, 2022, for an aggregate purchase price of $147.4 million per rig. Keppel have agreed to provide delivery financing facilities for these rigs in the amount of $130.0 million for each newbuild jack-up to be delivered in July 2025 (for "Vale") and September 2025 (for "Var"). Accordingly, as new rigs are delivered, our indebtedness will increase, as will our debt service payments, and we will be required to comply with the covenants in such facilities. We have not secured all the financing for "Vale" and "Var". In addition, Keppel may cancel these newbuilding contracts at any time prior to delivery, if they receive a bona fide offer from a third party. We have a right to match any offer they receive to continue with the newbuilding contracts, but this will accelerate payments due from us to Keppel.

We have not been provided with refund guarantees and/or parent company guarantees as security for Keppel's obligation to refund predelivery installment payments in the event of a default by Keppel. If we are not able to secure financing for "Vale" and "Var" and /or Keppel is unable to honor its obligations to us, subject to certain conditions, including the obligation to refund installment payments under certain circumstances or provide the underlying financing for our delivery financing arrangements, and we are not able to borrow additional funds, raise other capital and available current cash on hand is not sufficient to pay the remaining installments related to our contracted commitments for our newbuild jack-up rigs, we may not be able to acquire these jack-up rigs and/or may be subject to lengthy arbitral or court proceedings, any of which may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are also required to meet conditions to draw the loans to be provided under these delivery financing facilities, including giving customary representations and confirmation at the time of borrowing, and if we are unable to meet such conditions we would need to obtain alternative financing. We believe it would be very challenging to obtain alternative financing at this time, therefore a failure to meet draw conditions could result in a breach of contract to acquire the rig, and loss of deposit which could impact other financing arrangements.

***An economic downturn could have an adverse effect on our ability to access the capital markets.***

Negative developments in worldwide financial and economic conditions could impact our ability to access the lending and capital markets, which could impact our ability to react to changing economic and business conditions. Worldwide economic conditions could in the future impact lenders' willingness to provide credit facilities to us, or our customers, causing them to fail to meet their obligations to us. The current global economic conditions and related concerns of a global recession, instability in the global financial markets, financial turmoil and military action in Ukraine and sanctions implemented in response as well as the related global tensions, coupled with rising inflation and interest rates, have impacted capital markets and lending markets. This impact may continue, which could impact our ability to refinance our significant indebtedness which falls due in the coming years.

A renewed period of adverse development in the outlook for the financial stability of European, Middle Eastern or other countries, or market perceptions concerning these and related issues, could reduce the overall demand for oil and natural gas and for our services and thereby could affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Brexit, or similar events in other jurisdictions, can impact global markets, which may have an adverse impact on our ability to access the capital markets. In addition, turmoil and hostilities in various geographic areas and countries around the world add to the overall risk picture.

Our New DNB Facility and our Hayfin Facility are provided jointly by European banking and financing institutions and investment funds. In addition, a substantial portion of our long-term debt, our delivery financing arrangements, is provided by Keppel and PPL, Singaporean companies that may be highly leveraged, are not capitalized in the same manner as a financial institution and that are subject to their own operating, liquidity or regulatory risks. These risks could lead Keppel to seek to cancel, repudiate or renegotiate our construction contracts or fail to fulfill or challenge their commitments to us under those contracts, including the obligation to refund installment payments. In addition, Keppel and PPL have recently become under joint ownership which could impact our dealings with those entities and increases the concentration of our creditors under common ownership. The risks of liquidity concerns are heightened in periods of depressed market conditions. If economic conditions in European or American markets preclude or limit financing from European and/or American banking institutions, or if financial conditions in the Republic of Singapore impair the ability of Keppel or PPL to honor their obligations to us, we may not be able to obtain financing from other institutions on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all, even if conditions outside Europe or the United States remain favorable for lending. If our ability to access the debt or capital markets is affected by general economic conditions and contingencies and uncertainties that are beyond our control, there may be a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

The COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the global economy has had a significant adverse impact on the global economy and capital and lending markets, which has and may continue to subject us to the risks and impacts described above.

------

***Fluctuations in exchange rates and an inability to convert currencies could result in losses to us.***

We use the U.S. dollar as our functional currency because the majority of our revenues and expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars. Accordingly, our reporting currency is also U.S. dollars. As a result of our international operations, we may be exposed to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates due to revenues being received and operating expenses paid in currencies other than U.S. dollars.

Notably, with respect to jack-up drilling contracts in the North Sea, revenues may be received, and salaries generally paid, in Euros or Pounds. In addition, we may receive revenue or incur expenses in other currencies, including the Malaysian ringgit, Mexican Pesos, Thai Baht, currencies of West African Countries (CEMAC) and more recently the Saudi Riyal. Accordingly, we may experience currency exchange losses if we have not adequately hedged our exposure to a foreign currency, or if revenues are received in currencies that are not readily convertible. Moreover, we may experience adverse tax consequences attributable to currency fluctuations. We may also be unable to collect revenues because of a shortage of convertible currency available in the country of operation, controls over currency exchange or controls over the repatriation of income or capital. As we earn revenues and incur expenses in currencies other than our reporting currency, there is a risk that currency fluctuations could have an adverse effect on our statements of operations and cash flows.

**RISK FACTORS RELATED TO APPLICABLE LAWS AND REGULATIONS**

***Compliance with, and breach of, the complex laws and regulations governing international drilling activity and trade could be costly, expose us to liability and adversely affect our operations.***

We are directly affected by the adoption and entry into force of national and international laws and regulations that, for economic, environmental or other policy reasons, curtail, or impose restrictions, obligations or liabilities in connection with, exploration and development drilling for oil and gas in the geographic areas in which we operate.

The laws and regulations concerning import activity, export recordkeeping and reporting, export control and economic sanctions are complex and constantly changing. Import activities are governed by unique customs laws and regulations in each of the countries of operation. Moreover, many countries, including the United States, control the export and re-export, and in-country transfer of certain goods, services and technology and impose related export recordkeeping and reporting obligations. Shipments can be delayed and denied export or entry for a variety of reasons, some of which are outside our control and some of which may result from the failure to comply with existing legal and regulatory regimes. Delays or denials of shipments of parts and equipment that we need could cause unscheduled operational downtime. Future earnings may be negatively affected by compliance with any such new legislation or regulations.

Any failure to comply with applicable legal and regulatory trading obligations, including as a result of changed or amended interpretations or enforcement policies, could also result in administrative, criminal and civil penalties and sanctions, such as fines, imprisonment, debarment from government contracts, the seizure of shipments, the loss of import and export privileges and the suspension or termination of operations. New laws, the amendment or modification of existing laws and regulations or other governmental actions that prohibit or restrict offshore drilling or impose additional environmental protection requirements that result in increased costs to the oil and gas industry, in general, or to the offshore drilling industry, in particular, could adversely affect our performance.

***Local content requirements may increase the cost of, or restrict our ability to, obtain needed supplies or hire experienced personnel, or may otherwise affect our operations.***

Local content requirements are policies imposed by governments that require companies who operate within their jurisdiction to use domestically supplied goods and services or work with a domestic partner in order to operate within the jurisdiction. Governments in some countries in which we operate, or may operate in the future, have become increasingly active in the requirements with respect to the ownership of drilling companies, local content requirements for equipment used in operations within the country and other aspects of the oil and gas industries in their countries. In addition, national oil companies may impose restrictions on the submission of tenders, including eligibility criteria, which effectively require the use of domestically supplied goods and services or a local partner.

For example, the Nigerian Oil and Gas Industry Content Development Act, 2010 (the "Local Content Act") was enacted to provide for the development, implementation and monitoring of Nigerian content in the oil and gas industry and places emphasis on the promotion of Nigerian content among companies bidding for contracts in the oil and gas industry. The Local Content Act

------

provides the parameters and minimum level/percentages to be used in determining and measuring Nigerian content in the composite human and material resources and services applied by operators and contractors in any industry project within Nigeria.

Some foreign governments and/or national oil companies favor or effectively require (i) the awarding of drilling contracts to local contractors or to drilling rigs owned by their own citizens, (ii) the use of a local agent or (iii) foreign contractors to employ citizens of, or purchase supplies from, a particular jurisdiction. For example, in Mexico, where we have significant activities, there are no foreign investment restrictions for the operation of jack-up rigs for drilling operations in Mexico but the particular tender rules or the nature of the contractual obligations may make it necessary or prudent for these activities to be performed with a Mexican partner. We conduct our activities in Mexico through joint venture entities with a local Mexican partner experienced in providing services to PEMEX and use local labor and resources in order to comply with the contractual obligations to PEMEX. These practices may adversely affect our ability to compete in those regions and could result in increased costs and impact our ability to effectively control and operate our jack-up rigs, which could have a material impact on our earnings, operations and financial condition in the future.

***As a company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of Bermuda with subsidiaries in certain offshore jurisdictions, our operations are subject to economic substance requirements.***

Certain of our subsidiaries may from time to time be organized in other jurisdictions identified by the Code of Conduct Group for Business Taxation of the European Union (the "COCG"), based on global standards set by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development ("OECD") with the objective of preventing low-tax jurisdictions from attracting profits from certain activities, as non-cooperative jurisdictions or jurisdictions having tax regimes that facilitate offshore structures that attract profits without real economic activity.

On December 5, 2017, following an assessment of the tax policies of various countries by the COCG, economic substance laws and regulations were enacted in these jurisdictions requiring that certain entities carrying out particular activities comply with an economic substance test whereby the entity must show, for example, that it (i) carries out activities that are of central importance to the entity from the jurisdiction, (ii) has held an adequate number of its board meetings in the jurisdiction when judged against the level of decision-making required and (iii) has an adequate (a) amount of operating expenditures, (b) physical presence and (c) number of full-time employees in the jurisdiction.

If we fail to comply with our obligations under applicable economic substance legislation or any similar law applicable to us in any other jurisdictions, we could be subject to financial penalties and spontaneous disclosure of information to foreign tax officials in related jurisdictions and may be struck from the register of companies in that jurisdiction. Any of these actions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

***The obligations of being a public company, including compliance with the reporting requirements of the Norwegian Securities Trading Act, the Oslo Stock Exchange Rules, the Exchange Act and NYSE Listed Company Manual, require certain resources and has caused us to incur additional costs.***

We are subject to reporting and other requirements as a result of our listing on the Oslo Børs and on the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE. As a result of these listings we incur costs in complying with applicable statutes, regulations and requirements related to being a public company, which occupies additional time of our Board and management and the listing on the NYSE has increased our costs and expenses.

***As an emerging growth company, we are not currently subject to the requirement of auditor attestation of internal controls and certain disclosure requirements.*** 

We qualify as an emerging growth company under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the "JOBS Act"), which exempts us from including the filing of an auditor's attestation report regarding the effectiveness of our internal controls on financial reporting until we are no longer an emerging growth company, or we become a large accelerated filer and have and intend to continue to take advantage of this exemption. By relying on this exemption, investors will not have the benefit of an auditor attestation report on our internal controls, which could impact investor confidence and ultimately investors' ability to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and to identify deficiencies and weaknesses. As an emerging growth company we are also exempt from certain other disclosure requirements applicable to other SEC reporting companies such as the requirement for our auditor to disclosure critical audit matters in its audit report, and therefore investors will not benefit from such disclosures as they would if we were not an emerging growth company.

------

***We are subject to complex environmental laws and regulations that can adversely affect the cost, manner or feasibility of doing business.***

Our business is subject to international, national and local, environmental and safety laws and regulations, treaties and conventions in force from time to time including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the United Nation's International Maritime Organization, or the "IMO," International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships of 1973, as from time to time amended, or "MARPOL," including the designation of Emission Control Areas, or "ECAs" thereunder;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the IMO International Convention on Civil Liability for Oil Pollution Damage of 1969, as from time to time amended, or the "CLC";

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the International Convention on Civil Liability for Bunker Oil Pollution Damage, or the "Bunker Convention";

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea of 1974, as from time to time amended, or "SOLAS";

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the IMO International Convention on Load Lines, 1966, as from time to time amended;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the International Convention for the Control and Management of Ships' Ballast Water and Sediments in February 2004, or the "BWM Convention";

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the Code for the Construction and Equipment of Mobile Offshore Drilling Units, 2009, or the "MODU Code 2009";

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the Basel Convention on the Control of Transboundary Movements of Hazardous Wastes and their Disposal, or the "Basel Convention";

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the Hong Kong International Convention for the Safe and Environmentally Sound Recycling of Ships, 2009, or the "Hong Kong Convention"; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• certain regulations of the European Union, including Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 on Shipments of Waste and Regulation (E.U.) No 1257/2013 on Ship Recycling.

Compliance with applicable laws, regulations and standards may require us to incur capital costs or implement operational changes and may affect the value or useful life of our jack-up rigs which could have a material adverse effect on our profitability. A failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations may result in administrative and civil penalties, criminal sanctions or the suspension or termination of our operations. Conventions, laws and regulations are often revised and may only apply in certain jurisdictions with the effect that, we cannot predict the ultimate cost of complying with them or their impact on the value or useful lives of our rigs. New conventions, laws and regulations may be adopted that could limit our ability to do business or increase the cost of our doing business and that may materially adversely affect our operations.

Environmental laws often impose strict liability for the remediation of spills and releases of oil and hazardous substances, which could subject us to liability irrespective of any negligence or fault on our part. Under the US Oil Pollution Act of 1990, for example, owners, operators and bareboat charterers are jointly and severally strictly liable for the discharge of oil within the 200-mile exclusive economic zone around the United States. If we were to operate in these areas, an oil or chemical spill could result in us incurring significant liability, including fines, penalties, criminal liability and remediation costs for natural resource damages under other federal, state and local laws, as well as third-party damages, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Furthermore, future major environmental incidents involving the offshore drilling industry, such as the 2010 Deepwater Horizon Incident (to which we were not a party) may result in further regulation of the offshore industry and modifications to statutory liability schemes, thus exposing us to further potential financial risk in the event of any such oil or chemical spill in areas in which we operate.

Our jack-up rigs could cause the release of oil or hazardous substances and we are required by various governmental and quasi-governmental agencies to obtain certain permits, licenses and certificates with respect to our operations, and to satisfy insurance and financial responsibility requirements for potential oil (including marine fuel) spills and other pollution incidents. Any releases

------

may be large in quantity, above permitted limits or occur in protected or sensitive areas where public interest groups or governmental authorities have special interests. Any releases of oil or hazardous substances could result in fines and other costs to us, such as costs to upgrade our jack-up rigs, clean up the releases, compensate for natural resource damages and comply with more stringent requirements in our discharge permits. Moreover, such releases may result in our customers or governmental authorities suspending or terminating our operations in the affected area, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our jack-up rigs are owned by separate single-purpose subsidiaries, but certain obligations of these subsidiaries are and may in the future be guaranteed by the parent company.

Even if we are able to obtain contractual indemnification from our customers against pollution and environmental damages in our contracts, such indemnification may not be enforceable in all instances or the customer may not be financially able to comply with its indemnity obligations in all cases. We do not have full contractual indemnification under our current contracts, and we may not be able to obtain such indemnification agreements in the future. In addition, a court may decide that certain indemnities in our current or future contracts are not enforceable.

Although we have insurance to cover certain environmental risks, there can be no assurance that such insurance will respond and if it does, that the proceeds will be sufficient to cover all such risks or that any claims will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

In the future, insurance coverage protecting us against damages incurred or fines imposed as a result of our violation of applicable environmental laws may not be available or we may choose not to obtain such insurance, and this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

***Future government regulations may adversely affect the offshore drilling industry.***

International contract drilling operations are subject to various laws and regulations of the countries in which we operate, including laws and regulations relating to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the equipping and operation of drilling rigs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• exchange rates or exchange controls;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• oil and gas exploration and development;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the taxation of earnings;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the ability to receive drilling contract revenue outside the country of operation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the ability to move income or capital;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the environment and climate change;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the taxation of the earnings of expatriate personnel; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the use and compensation of local employees and suppliers by foreign contractors.

It is difficult to predict what government regulations may be enacted in the future that could adversely affect the offshore drilling industry. Failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations, including those relating to sanctions and export restrictions, may subject us to criminal sanctions or civil remedies, including fines, the denial of export privileges, injunctions or the seizures of assets.

------

***Data protection and regulations related to privacy, data protection and information security could increase our costs, and our failure to comply could result in fines, sanctions or other penalties, as well as have an impact on our reputation.***

We rely on information technology systems and networks in our operations and administration of our business and are bound by national and international regulations related to privacy, data protection and information security.

Increasing regulatory enforcement and litigation activity in these areas of privacy, data protection and information security in the U.S., the European Union and other relevant jurisdictions are increasingly adopting or revising privacy, data protection and information security laws. For example, the General Data Protection Regulations of the European Union ("GDPR"), which became enforceable in all 27 E.U. member states as of May 25, 2018, requires us to undertake enhanced data protection safeguards, with fines for noncompliance up to 4% of global total annual worldwide turnover or €20 million (whichever is higher), depending on the type and severity of the breach. Compliance with current or future privacy, data protection and information security laws could significantly impact our current and planned privacy, data protection and information security related practices, our collection, use, sharing, retention and safeguarding of customer and/or employee information, and some of our current or planned business activities.

As our business grows, our compliance costs may increase, particularly in the context of ensuring that adequate data protection and data transfer mechanisms are in place and adapted to development in the laws and regulations in all of the relevant jurisdictions. Failure to comply with applicable privacy, data protection and information security laws could affect our results of operations and overall business, as well as have an impact on our reputation.

***Our ability to operate our jack-up rigs in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico could be impaired by governmental regulation and new regulations adopted in response to the investigation into the 2010 Deepwater Horizon Incident.***

In the aftermath of the 2010 Deepwater Horizon Incident (to which we were not a party), new and revised regulations governing safety and environmental management systems with a focus on operator obligations, were implemented. The guidelines or regulations that may apply to jack-up rigs may subject us to increased costs and limit the operational capabilities of our jack-up rigs if, in the future, we decide to have operations in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico region.

***A change in tax laws in any country in which we operate could result in higher tax expense.***

We conduct our operations through various subsidiaries and branches in countries around the world. Our operations are subject to tax laws, regulations and treaties which are highly complex, subject to interpretation, frequent changes and have generally become more stringent over time. Consequently, there is substantial uncertainty with respect to tax laws, regulations, treaties and the interpretation and enforcement thereof. The OECD continues to issue reports and recommendations on base erosion and profit sharing (BEPS) which generally targeted profits earned in low tax jurisdictions or transactions between affiliates where payments are made from jurisdictions with high tax rates to jurisdictions with lower tax rates. In response to the OECD recommendations, various countries where we operate have recently introduced changes to their tax laws and it is possible that further changes will be made in the future which may be applied retroactively. For example, in response to the OECD recommendations for global minimum tax, the European Union has agreed to implement the minimum taxation component to comply with BEPS Pillar 2. Each member state must enact implementing legislation and other countries such as the U.K. and Canada have made similar announcements during 2022. We are currently assessing how such a minimum tax when enacted will impact our business

On December 12, 2022 the European Union member states agreed to implement the OECD's Pillar 2 global corporate minimum tax rate of 15% on companies with revenues of at least €750 million effective from 2024. On December 31, 2022, South Korea enacted new global minimum rules to align with OECD's Pillar 2 and several other countries including the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Canada and Australia are also actively considering changes to their tax laws to adopt certain parts of the OECD's proposals.

Effective from January 1, 2020, Mexico enacted a tax reform which has the potential to materially increase our tax expense.

The rate of Corporation Tax in the UK is set to rise from 19% to 25% from April 2023. Our income tax expense is based on our interpretation of the tax laws in effect in the countries that we operate in, at the time that the expense was incurred. If a taxing authority successfully challenges our tax structure or if a change in these tax laws, regulations or treaties, or in the interpretation thereof occurs in a manner that is adverse to our structure, this could result in a materially higher tax expense or a higher effective tax rate on our worldwide earnings. Additionally, due to the nature of our business and the frequent changes in the taxing jurisdictions of our operations, our consolidated effective income tax rate may vary from one period to another.

------

***A loss of a major tax dispute or a successful tax challenge to our operating structure, intercompany pricing policies or the taxable presence of our subsidiaries in certain countries could result in a higher tax rate on our worldwide earnings, which could result in a significant negative impact on our earnings and cash flows from operations.***

Our income tax returns are subject to review and examination by the relevant authorities in the countries in which we operate. We do not recognize the benefit of income tax positions we believe are more likely than not to be disallowed upon challenge by a tax authority. If any tax authority successfully challenges positions we have taken in tax filings related to our operational structure, intercompany pricing policies, the taxable presence of our subsidiaries in certain countries or any other situation, or if the terms of certain income tax treaties are interpreted in a manner that is adverse to our structure, or if we lose a material tax dispute in any country, our effective tax rate on our worldwide earnings could increase substantially and our earnings and cash flows from operations could be materially adversely affected.

***Climate change and the regulation of greenhouse gases could have a negative impact on our business.***

In response to concerns over the risk of climate change, a number of countries, the European Union and the IMO have adopted, or are considering the adoption of, regulatory frameworks to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Currently, the emissions of greenhouse gases from international shipping are not subject to the Kyoto Protocol to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, which entered into force in 2005 and pursuant to which adopting countries have been required to implement national programs to reduce greenhouse gas emissions or the Paris Agreement, which resulted from the 2015 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change conference in Paris and entered into force on November 4, 2016. In November 2021, the international community gathering again in Glasgow at the 26th Conference to the Parties on the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change ("COP26"), during which multiple announcements were made, including the reaffirmation of the Paris Agreement goal of limiting the increase in the global average temperature to well below two degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels, and a call for parties to eliminate certain fossil fuel subsidies and pursue further action on non-carbon dioxide GHGs, among other measures. Relatedly, the United States and European Union jointly announced the launch of the "Global Methane Pledge," which aims to cut global methane pollution at least by 30% by 2030 relatively to 2020 levels, including "all feasible reductions" in the energy sector. COP26 concluded with the finalization of the Glasgow Climate Pact, which stated long-term global goals (including those in the Paris Agreement) to limit the increase in the global average temperature and emphasized reductions in GHG emissions. Various state and local governments have also publicly committed to furthering the goals of the Paris Agreement. Most recently, at the 27th conference of parties ("COP27") held at Sharm el-Sheikh, President Biden announced the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's supplemental proposed rule to reduce methane emissions from existing oil and gas sources, and agreed, in conjunction with the European Union and a number of other partner countries, to develop standards for monitoring and reporting methane emissions to help create a market for low methane-intensity oil and natural gas. Further, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 establishes a charge on methane emissions above certain limits from oil and gas facilities and contains significant incentives for the development of renewable energy, clean hydrogen, clean fuels, electric vehicles and supporting infrastructure and carbon capture and sequestration, among other provisions. The full impact of these actions, and any legislation or regulation promulgated to fulfill such countries' commitments thereunder, is uncertain at this time, and it is unclear what additional initiatives may be adopted or implemented that may have adverse effects upon us.

As of January 1, 2013, all ships (including jack-up rigs) must comply with mandatory requirements adopted by the IMO's Maritime Environment Protection Committee, or the "MEPC," in July 2011 relating to greenhouse gas emissions. A roadmap for a "comprehensive IMO strategy on a reduction of GHG emissions from ships" was approved by MEPC at its 70th session in October 2016, and in 2018 IMO adopted an initial strategy designed to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases from ships, including short-term, mid-term and long-term candidate measures, with a vision of reducing and phasing out greenhouse gas emissions from ships as soon as possible in the 21st Century. These requirements could cause us to incur additional compliance costs. In May 2019, the MEPC approved a number of measures aimed at achieving the IMO initial strategy's objectives.

Compliance with changes in laws, regulations and obligations relating to climate change could increase our costs related to operating and maintaining our assets, require us to install new emission controls, require us to acquire emission allowances or pay taxes related to our greenhouse gas emissions, or require us to administer and manage a greenhouse gas emissions program. Any passage of climate control legislation or other regulatory initiatives by the IMO, the European Union, the United States or other countries in which we operate, or any treaty adopted at the international level to succeed the Kyoto Protocol, which restricts emissions of greenhouse gases, could require us to make significant financial expenditures that we cannot predict with certainty at this time.

Relatedly, our long-term success depends on our ability to effectively address the transition to renewable and other alternative energy sources, and our ability to respond to other climate-related business trends that could adversely impact the long-term demand for oil and natural gas and, ultimately, the demand for our services and products from our services. Addressing increased focus on the development of additional alternative energy sources and other climate-related business trends has required and will further require adapting certain parts or our operations to potentially changing government requirements and regulation, customer

------

preferences. We continue to engage with existing and potential customers and suppliers to develop or implement solutions designed to reduce or decarbonize oil and gas operations, or to advance renewable and other alternative energy sources, which could require adapting our fleet. Nonetheless, as it is not possible at this time to predict the timing, scope and effect of the development of and transition to renewable or other alternative energy sources, any such developments, such as the declining cost of renewable energy generation technologies, could adversely impact the long-term global demand for oil and natural gas and, ultimately, the demand for our services. If the energy transition and rebalancing landscape changes faster than anticipated or develop in a manner that we do not anticipate, demand for our services may be adversely affected. If we do not or are perceived to not effectively implement a strategy that incorporates alternative energy sources, or if investors or financial institutions shift funding away from companies in fossil fuel-related industries, our access to capital or the market for our securities could be negatively impacted.

In addition to regulatory efforts, there have also been efforts in recent years aimed at the investment community, including investment advisors, sovereign wealth funds, public pension funds, universities and other groups, promoting the divestment of fossil fuel equities as well as to pressure lenders and other financial services companies to limit or curtail activities with fossil fuel companies, to promote the divestment of fossil fuel equities and to limit funding to companies engaged in the extraction of fossil fuels, and similarly, parties concerned about the potential effects of climate change have directed their attention at sources of funding for energy companies, which has resulted in certain financial institutions, funds and other sources of capital, restricting or eliminating their investment in or lending to oil and gas activities. For example, BlackRock, one of the largest asset managers in the world, recently affirmed its commitment to divest from investments in fossil fuels due to concerns over climate change. The Church of England also voted for divestment from investments in fossil fuels in 2018, that are not in line with Paris Agreement by 2023. Furthermore, certain state pension funds, including the New York State pension fund, have started divesting from their investments in fossil fuels. If we fail to, or are perceived to not effectively implement an energy transition strategy, or if investors or financial institutions shift funding away from companies in fossil fuel-related industries, our access to capital or the market for our securities could be negatively impacted. Moreover, members of the investment community have begun to screen companies for sustainability performance, included practices related to greenhouse gasses (GHGs) and climate change before investing in stock, and relatedly, in March 2021 the SEC proposed rules regarding the enhancement and standardization of mandatory climate-related disclosures for investors. If we are unable to find economically viable, as well as publicly acceptable, solutions that reduce our GHG emissions and/or GHG intensity for new and existing projects, to the extent financial markets view climate change and greenhouse emissions as a financial risk, this could negatively impact our share price and our cost of or access to capital; whereas, any material adverse effect on the oil and gas industry relating to climate change concerns could have a significant adverse financial and operational impact on our business and operations. Moreover, increased attention regarding the risks of climate change and the emission of GHGs augments the possibility of litigation or investigations being brought by public and private entities against oil and natural gas companies in connection with their GHG emissions. As a result, we or our customers may become subject to court orders compelling a reduction of GHG emissions or requiring mitigation of the effects of climate change. Should we be targeted by any such litigation or investigations, we may incur liability, which to the extent that political or societal pressures or other factors involved, could be imposed without regard to the causation of, or contribution to, the asserted damage, or to other mitigating factors.

Further, physical effects of climate change, such as increased frequency and severity of storms, floods and other climatic events, could have a material adverse effect on our operations, particularly given that our rigs may need to curtail operations or may suffer damages during significant weather events.

Additionally, adverse effects upon the oil and gas industry related to the worldwide social and political environment, including uncertainty or instability resulting from climate change, changes in political leadership and environmental policies, changes in geopolitical-social views toward fossil fuels and renewable energy, concern about the environmental impact of climate change and investors' expectations regarding environmental, social and governance matters, may also adversely affect demand for our services. For example, increased regulation of greenhouse gases or other concerns relating to climate change may reduce the demand for oil and gas in the future or create greater incentives for the use of alternative energy sources, and, we could experience additional costs or financial penalties, delayed or cancelled projects, and/or reduced production and reduced demand for hydrocarbons, which could have a material adverse effect on our earnings, cash flows and financial condition. Any long-term material adverse effect on the oil and gas industry could have a significant financial and operational adverse impact on our business, including capital expenditures to upgrade our jack-up rigs, which we cannot predict with certainty at this time.

The efforts we may undertake in the future, to respond to those evolving or new regulations and to environmental initiatives of customers, investors, and others may increase our costs. These and other environmental requirements could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition.

------

***Failure to meet our Environmental, Social and Governance ("ESG") goals could adversely impact our reputation, financial condition and results of operations.***

We have published, and intend to publish, disclosures on ESG matters relating to our business and our partners in compliance with applicable regulations and guidance and other data which may not be required but which we nonetheless elect to disclose. Such disclosure includes statements based on our expectations and assumptions, involving substantial discretion and forecasts about costs and future circumstances, which may prove to be incorrect. In addition, our ESG initiative may not have the intended results, and our estimates concerning the timing and cost of implementing and ability to meet stated goals are subject to risks and uncertainties, which could result in us not meeting our goals on expected timing or at all or within expected costs. In addition, ESG disclosure requirements are increasing and the SEC has proposed significant disclosure requirements on ESG matters which differ from the requirements that we are currently subject to in light of our listing on Oslo Børs, so we face risks in compliance with such regulations including the risk of complying with requirements in different jurisdictions, costs associated with such compliance and potential liability in the event that our ESG disclosures prove incorrect. Any failure, or perceived failure, to achieve our ESG goals or failure to meet disclosure requirements could adversely impact our reputation, financial condition and results of operations.

***Failure to comply with international anti-corruption legislation, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, the U.K. Bribery Act 2010 or the Bribery Act 2016 of Bermuda, could result in fines, criminal penalties, damage to our reputation and drilling contract terminations.***

We currently operate, and historically have operated, our jack-up rigs in a number of countries throughout the world, including some with developing economies and some known to have a reputation for corruption. We interact with government regulators, licensors, port authorities and other government entities and officials. Also, our business interaction with national oil companies as well as state or government-owned shipbuilding enterprises puts us in contact with persons who may be considered to be "foreign officials" under the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 (the "FCPA"), and the Bribery Act 2010 of the United Kingdom (the "U.K. Bribery Act").

We are committed to doing business in accordance with applicable anti-corruption laws and this is reflected in our Code of Conduct and our business ethics. There is nevertheless a risk that we, our affiliated entities or our or their respective officers, directors, employees and agents act in a manner which is found to be in violation of applicable anti-corruption laws, including the FCPA, the UK Bribery Act and the Bribery Act of 2016 of Bermuda (the "ABC Legislation").

We utilize local agents and/or establish entities with local operators or strategic partners in some jurisdiction and these activities may involve interaction by our agents with government officials. Some of our agents and partners may not themselves be subject to any ABC Legislation but they are made aware of our Code of Conduct, our Anti-Bribery and Anti-Corruptions Policy and Procedures and obligations under applicable ABC Legislation. If, however, our agents or partners should nevertheless make improper payments to government officials or other persons in connection with engagements or partnerships with us, we could be investigated and potentially found liable for violations of such ABC Legislation (including the books and records provisions of the FCPA) and could incur civil and criminal penalties and other sanctions, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operation.

We are subject to the risk that we or our or their respective officers, directors, employees and agents may take actions determined to be in violation of ABC Legislation. Any such violation could result in substantial fines, sanctions, civil and/or criminal penalties and curtailment of operations in certain jurisdictions, and might adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition. In addition, actual or alleged violations could damage our reputation and ability to do business. Furthermore, detecting, investigating and resolving actual or alleged violations is expensive and can consume significant time and attention of our senior management.

***If our jack-up rigs are located in countries that are subject to, or targeted by, economic sanctions, export restrictions or other operating restrictions imposed by the United States or other governments, our reputation and the market for our debt and common shares could be adversely affected.***

The U.S. and other governments may impose economic sanctions against certain countries, persons and other entities that restrict or prohibit transactions involving such countries, persons and entities. U.S. sanctions in particular are targeted against countries (such as Russia, Venezuela, Iran and others) that are heavily involved in the petroleum and petrochemical industries, which includes drilling activities. In connection with the Russian military actions across Ukraine which began in February 2022, the United States, U.K. and the European Union have imposed aggressive sanctions against Russia. U.S. and other economic sanctions change frequently, and enforcement of economic sanctions worldwide is increasing. Subject to certain limited

------

exceptions, U.S. law continues to restrict U.S.-owned or -controlled entities from doing business with Iran and Cuba, and various U.S. sanctions have certain other extraterritorial effects that need to be considered by non-U.S. companies. Moreover, any U.S. persons who serve as officers, directors or employees of our subsidiaries would be fully subject to U.S. sanctions. It should also be noted that other governments are more frequently implementing and enforcing sanctions regimes.

From time to time, we may be party to drilling contracts with countries or government-controlled entities that become subject to sanctions and embargoes imposed by the U.S. government and/or identified by the U.S. government as state sponsors of terrorism. Even in cases where the investment would not violate U.S. law, potential investors could view any such contracts negatively, which could adversely affect our reputation and the market for our shares. We do not currently have any drilling contracts or plans to initiate any drilling contracts involving operations in countries or with government-controlled entities that are subject to sanctions and embargoes imposed by the U.S. government and/or identified by the U.S. government as state sponsors of terrorism.

There can be no assurance that we will be in compliance with all applicable economic sanctions and embargo laws and regulations, particularly as the scope of certain laws may be unclear and may be subject to changing interpretations. Rapid changes in the scope of global sanctions may also make it more difficult for us to remain in compliance. Any violation of applicable economic sanctions could result in civil or criminal penalties, fines, enforcement actions, legal costs, reputational damage or other penalties and could result in some investors deciding, or being required, to divest their interest, or not to invest, in our shares. Additionally, some investors may decide to divest their interest, or not to invest, in our shares simply because we may do business with companies that do business in sanctioned countries. Moreover, our drilling contracts may violate applicable sanctions and embargo laws and regulations as a result of actions that do not involve us, or our jack-up rigs, and those violations could in turn negatively affect our reputation. Investor perception of the value of our shares may also be adversely affected by the consequences of war, the effects of terrorism, civil unrest and governmental actions in these and surrounding countries.

***Changing corporate laws and reporting requirements could have an adverse impact on our business.***

We may face greater reporting obligations and compliance requirements as a result of changing laws, regulations and standards such as the UK Modern Slavery Act 2015 and GDPR. We have invested in, and intend to continue to invest in, reasonable resources to address evolving standards and to maintain high standards of corporate governance and disclosure, including our Whistleblowing Policy and Procedures. Non-compliance with such regulations could result in governmental or other regulatory claims or significant fines that could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and ability to make distributions.

***The United Kingdom's withdrawal from the European Union will have uncertain effects and could adversely impact the offshore drilling industry.***

The U.K. formally exited the EU on January 31, 2020 (commonly referred to as "Brexit"). On December 24, 2020, both parties entered into a trade and cooperation agreement (the "Trade and Cooperation Agreement"), which contains rules for how the U.K. and EU are to live, work and trade together. While the new economic relationship does not match the relationship that existed during the time the U.K. was a member state of the EU, the Trade and Cooperation Agreement sets out preferential arrangements in certain areas such as trade in goods and in services, digital trade and intellectual property; we are still assessing and monitoring the impact that Brexit will have on its business, and we continue to evaluate our own risks and uncertainty related to Brexit to better navigate the changes in the U.K.-EU market.

Brexit (or any other country exiting the EU) or prolonged periods of uncertainty relating to any of these scenarios could result in significant macroeconomic deterioration, including further decreases in global stock exchange indices, increased foreign exchange volatility, decreased GDP in the European Union or other markets in which we operate, issues with cross-border trade, political and regulatory uncertainty and further sovereign credit downgrades.

Moreover, we cannot anticipate if the U.K. and EU will succeed in negotiating all material terms not otherwise addressed or covered by the Trade and Cooperation Agreement, or subsequent transition agreements or arrangements and/or if previously agreed upon items will be renegotiated in the future. Changes in these or other terms resulting from Brexit could, similarly, subject us or our subsidiaries, to certain risks and could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and cash flows.

4.7% of our total revenues were generated in the U.K. for the year ended December 31, 2022. In addition, certain of our warm stacked jack-up rigs may from time to time be located in the U.K. and our remaining jack-up rigs may from time to time move into territorial waters of the U.K. In September 2019, some of our management team relocated to the U.K. and certain of our on-

------

shore employees may from time to time be employed by Borr Drilling Management UK, which is based in the U.K. Our business and operations may be impacted by any further actions taken by the U.K. after Brexit, including with respect to employee and related persons permits and visas, and other authorizations required to live, work or operate within the U.K. In particular, the impact of potential changes to the U.K.'s migration policy could adversely impact our employees of non-U.K. nationality that may from time to time be working in the United Kingdom, as well as have an uncertain impact on cross-border labor. The potential restrictions on free travel of United Kingdom citizens to Europe, and vice versa, could adversely impact the jobs market in general and our operations in Europe. An extended period of adverse development in the outlook for the world economy could also reduce the overall demand for oil and gas and for our services. Such changes could adversely affect our results of operations and cash flows.

**RISK FACTORS RELATED TO OUR COMMON SHARES**

***The price of our common shares may fluctuate widely in the future, and you could lose all or part of your investment.***

The market price of our Shares has fluctuated widely and may continue to do so as a result of many factors, such as actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results, changes in financial estimates by securities analysts, and economic trends. The following is a non-exhaustive list of factors that could affect our share price:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our operating and financial performance;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• quarterly variations in the rate of growth of our financial indicators, such as net income per share, net income and revenues;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the public reaction to our press releases, our other public announcements and our filings with the SEC;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• strategic actions by our competitors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our failure to meet revenue or earnings estimates by research analysts or other investors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in revenue or earnings estimates, or changes in recommendations or withdrawal of research coverage, by equity research analysts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• speculation in the press or investment community;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the failure of research analysts to cover our Shares;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• sales of our Shares by us or shareholders, or the perception that such sales may occur;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in accounting principles, policies, guidance, interpretations or standards;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• additions or departures of key management personnel;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• actions by our shareholders;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• general market conditions, including fluctuations in oil and gas prices;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• domestic and international economic, legal and regulatory factors unrelated to our performance; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the realization of any risks described in this section "Item 3.D. Risk Factors."

In addition, the stock markets in general have experienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our Shares.

***If we do not comply with the continued listing requirements of the New York Stock Exchange, our shares may be subject to delisting from the New York Stock Exchange.***

On two occasions in 2020 and one occasion in 2021, we received written notice from the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") that we were not in compliance with the NYSE continued listing standard with respect to the minimum average share

------

price required by the NYSE because the average closing price of our common shares had fallen below $1.00 per share over a period of 30 consecutive trading days. With respect to those three notifications, we regained compliance with this NYSE listing standard as a result of our shares trading above $1.00 average stock price for the relevant 30 trading day period (with respect to the third notification, we regained compliance by implementing a two-for-one reverse share split).

If in the future we again fail to comply with the NYSE minimum price requirement or other NYSE rules, we could face delisting by the NYSE. A delisting of our shares from the NYSE could negatively impact us by, among other things, reducing the liquidity and market price of our shares, reducing the number of investors willing to hold or acquire our shares and limiting our ability to issue securities or obtain financing in the future.

***We are permitted to follow certain home country practices in relation to our corporate governance instead of certain NYSE rules, which may afford you less protection.***

As a foreign private issuer, we are permitted to adopt certain home country practices in relation to our corporate governance matters that differ significantly from the NYSE corporate governance listing standards. These practices may afford less protection to shareholders than they would enjoy if we complied fully with corporate governance listing standards.

As an issuer whose shares are listed on the NYSE, we are subject to corporate governance listing standards of the NYSE. However, NYSE rules permit a foreign private issuer like us to follow the corporate governance practices of its home country. Certain corporate governance practices in Bermuda, which is our home country, may differ significantly from NYSE corporate governance listing standards. We follow certain home country practices instead of the relevant NYSE rules. See the section entitled "Item 16.G. Corporate Governance." Therefore, our shareholders may be afforded less protection than they otherwise would have under NYSE corporate governance listing standards applicable to U.S. domestic issuers.

***Future sales of our equity securities in the public market, or the perception that such sales may occur, could reduce our share price, and any additional capital raised by us through the sale of equity or convertible securities may dilute your ownership in us.***

In light of current market conditions, and the trading price of our shares, any issuance of new equity securities could be at prices that are significantly lower than the purchase price of such Shares by other investors, thereby resulting in dilution of our existing shareholders.

As of the date of this filing, we have outstanding 228,948,087 shares, and the Related Parties (as defined below) collectively owned 17,298,922 of our shares or approximately 7.6% of our total outstanding shares. Such shares, as well as shares held by our employees and others are eligible for sale in the United States under Rule 144 under the Securities Act ("Rule 144") and are generally freely tradable on the Oslo Børs.

Future issuances by us and sales of shares by significant shareholders may have a negative impact on the market price of our shares. In particular, sales of substantial amounts of our shares (including shares issued in connection with an acquisition), or the perception that such sales could occur, may adversely affect prevailing market prices of our shares.

***We depend on directors who are associated with affiliated companies, which may create conflicts of interest.***

Our shareholders include Drew Holdings Limited and affiliates thereof, including Magni Partners (Bermuda) Limited (collectively, the "Related Parties"). We maintain commercial relationships with our Related Parties, including advisory arrangements that are currently in place and under which services continue to be provided to us. Certain of our Related Parties have, in the past, provided foundational loans to us, including our initial payment under the Hercules Acquisition (as defined below). Furthermore, the chairman of our Board, who also serves as a director of one of our Related Parties is effectively required to serve on our Board pursuant to covenants contained in certain of our financing arrangements.

The chairman of our Board, Mr. Tor Olav Trøim, also serves as a director of one of our Related Parties. These dual positions may conflict with his duties as one of our directors regarding business dealings and other matters between each of the Related Parties and us. Our directors owe fiduciary duties to both us and each respective Related Party and may have conflicts of interest. The resolution of these conflicts may not always be in our or shareholders' best interests.

Please see the section entitled "Item 7.B. Related Party Transactions" for more information, including information on the commercial arrangements between us and the Related Parties.

------

***If securities or industry analysts do not publish research reports or publish unfavorable research about our business, the price and trading volume of our common shares could decline.***

The trading market for our shares may depend in part on the research reports that securities or industry analysts publish about us or our business. We may never obtain significant research coverage by securities and industry analysts. If limited securities or industry analysts continue coverage of us, the trading price for our shares and other securities would be negatively affected. In the event we obtain significant securities or industry analyst coverage, and one or more of the analysts who covers us downgrades our securities, the price of our shares would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts ceases to cover us or fails to publish regular reports on us, interest in the purchase of our shares could decrease, which could cause the price of our common shares and other securities and their trading volume to decline.

***We may not pay dividends in the future.***

Under our Bye-Laws, any dividends declared will be in the sole discretion of our Board and will depend upon earnings, market prospects, current capital expenditure programs and investment opportunities, although the payment of dividends is restricted by the covenants in certain of our Financing Arrangements. Under Bermuda law, we may not declare or pay a dividend, or make a distribution out of contributed surplus, if there are reasonable grounds for believing that (a) we are, or would after the payment be, unable to pay our liabilities as they become due or (b) the realizable value of our assets would thereby be less than our liabilities. In addition, since we are a holding company with no material assets other than the shares of our subsidiaries through which we conduct our operations, our ability to pay dividends will depend on our subsidiaries distributing to us their earnings and cash flow and liquidity. Furthermore, we require the consent of our lenders under certain of our financing arrangements in order to pay dividends. We cannot predict when, or if, dividends will be paid in the future.

***Because we are a foreign corporation, you may not have the same rights that a shareholder in a U.S. corporation may have.***

We are incorporated under the laws of Bermuda, and substantially all of our assets are located outside of the United States. In addition, our directors and officers generally are or will be nonresidents of the United States, and all or a substantial portion of the assets of these nonresidents are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible for you to effect service of process on these individuals in the United States or to enforce in the United States judgments obtained in U.S. courts against us or our directors and officers based on the civil liability provisions of applicable U.S. securities laws.

In addition, you should not assume that courts in the countries in which we are incorporated or where our assets are located (1) would enforce judgments of U.S. courts obtained in actions against us based upon the civil liability provisions of applicable U.S. securities laws or (2) would enforce, in original actions, liabilities against us based on those laws.

***If we are a "passive foreign investment company" for U.S. federal income tax purposes for any taxable year, U.S. Holders of our common shares may be subject to adverse tax consequences.***

A non-U.S. corporation, such as the Company, will be treated as a "passive foreign investment company," or PFIC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes for a taxable year if either (1) at least 75% of its gross income for such taxable year consists of certain types of "passive income" or (2) at least 50% of the value of the corporation's assets (generally determined on the basis of a quarterly average) during such year produce or are held for the production of passive income. For purposes of these tests, "passive income" includes dividends, interest, net gains from the sale or exchange of investment property and rents and royalties other than rents and royalties that are received from unrelated parties in connection with the active conduct of a trade or business but does not generally include income derived from the performance of services. In addition, a non-U.S. corporation is treated as holding directly and receiving directly its proportionate share of the assets and income of any other corporation in which it directly or indirectly owns at least 25% (by value) of such corporation's stock.

Based on the composition of our income and assets, we believe we were not a PFIC for the taxable year ended December 31, 2022 and we do not anticipate being a PFIC for the current taxable year or foreseeable future taxable years. There can be no assurance, however, that we were not a PFIC for the taxable year ended December 31, 2022 or that we will not be a PFIC for the current taxable year or foreseeable future taxable years. The application of the PFIC rules is subject to uncertainty in several respects, and we must make a separate determination after the close of each taxable year as to whether we were a PFIC for such year. Moreover, we believe that any income we receive from offshore drilling service contracts should not be treated as passive income under the PFIC rules and that the assets we own and utilize to generate this income should not be treated as passive assets. Because there are uncertainties in the application of the relevant rules, however, it is possible that the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") may challenge our classification of such income or assets as non-passive, which could cause us to become classified as a PFIC for the current or subsequent taxable years.

------

If we were treated as a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder (as defined in "Item 10.E. Taxation—U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations—General") held a common share, certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences could apply to such U.S. Holder. See "Item 10.E. Taxation—U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations—Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations" for a more comprehensive discussion.

**B.BUSINESS 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 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 oil and gas drilling and workover operations for exploration and production customers. We currently own 22 rigs with an additional two jack-up rigs scheduled to be delivered by the third quarter of 2025. Upon delivery of these newbuild jack-up rigs, we will have a fleet of 24 premium jack-up rigs, which refers to rigs delivered from the yard in 2000 or later.

We are one of the largest international operators of drilling rigs within the jack-up segment and the shallow-water market is our operational focus. Jack-up rigs can, in principle, be used to drill (i) exploration wells, i.e. explore for new sources of oil and gas or (ii) new production wells in an area where oil and gas is already produced; the latter activity is referred to as development drilling. Shallow-water oil and gas production is generally a lower-cost production, in terms of cost per barrel of oil. As a result, and due to the shorter period from investment decision to cash flow, E&P Companies have an incentive to invest in shallow-water developments over other offshore production categories.

We contract our jack-up rigs primarily on a dayrate basis to drill wells for our customers, including integrated oil companies, state-owned national oil companies and independent oil and gas companies. During 2022, our top five customers by revenue, including related party revenue were Perfomex, PTTEP, ENI Congo S.A., Vaalco Gabon S.A. and Addax Petroleum S.A.. A dayrate drilling contract generally extends over a period of time covering either the drilling of a single well or group of wells, or covering a stated term. Our Total Contract Backlog (excluding backlog from joint venture operations which earn related party revenue) was $929.8 million as of December 31, 2022 and $324.8 million as of December 31, 2021. We currently operate in significant oil-producing geographies throughout the world, including the North Sea, Mexico, West Africa, South East Asia and the Middle East. We continue to operate our business with a competitive cost base, driven by a strong and experienced organizational culture and an actively managed capital structure.

<sup>(1)</sup> Includes the acquisition of one semi-submersible rig in 2018 which was subsequently sold in 2020.

<sup>(2)</sup> During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company agreed to sell three newbuild rigs the Company previously agreed to purchase from Keppel to an undisclosed third-party. As of December 31, 2022, we had two newbuild jack-up rigs not yet delivered, resulting in a total fleet of 24.

**Our History**

Important events in the development of our business include the following.

 *(i) Acquisition of Hercules Rigs*

On December 2, 2016, we agreed to purchase two premium jack-up rigs (the "Hercules Rigs") from Hercules British Offshore Limited ("Hercules"). The transaction was completed on January 23, 2017 (the "Hercules Acquisition"). The Hercules Rigs, "Frigg" and "Ran," were acquired for a total price of $130.0 million. Each rig is a premium jack-up rig.

*(ii) Acquisition from Transocean*

On March 15, 2017, we signed a letter of intent with Transocean Inc. ("Transocean") for the purchase of certain Transocean subsidiaries owning 10 jack-up rigs and the rights under five newbuilding contracts (the "Transocean Transaction"). On May 31, 2017, we completed the Transocean Transaction for a total price of $1,240.5 million. Three of the jack-up rigs we acquired, "Idun," "Mist" and "Odin," were, at the time, employed with Chevron for operations in Thailand. Transocean, as the seller, retained the revenue, expenses and cash flow associated with the three rigs under contract upon closing of the Transocean Transaction. Since the acquisition closed, two of the rigs under the newbuilding contracts have been delivered, "Saga" and "Skald," one rig under newbuilding contract "Tivar" was sold in the fourth quarter of 2022, and an additional two are scheduled to be delivered in 2025. Of the rigs initially delivered at closing, four were standard jack-up rigs and six were premium jack-up rigs. Since the closing of the Transocean Transaction, we have divested all of the four standard jack-up rigs and two cold stacked premium jack-up rigs, as there was no economic incentive to reactivate these rigs.

*(iii) Acquisition from PPL*

On October 6, 2017, we entered into a master agreement with PPL for six premium jack-up drilling rigs and three premium jack-up drilling rigs under construction at its yard in Singapore (together, the "PPL Rigs"). The consideration in the transaction with PPL (the "PPL Acquisition") was $1,300 million, $55.8 million of this was paid per rig on October 31, 2017, and we entered into loans for delivery financing for a portion of the purchase price equal to $87.0 million per rig from PPL. All of the PPL Rigs have been delivered and one rig, "Gyme", was sold in 2022.

*(iv) Acquisition of Paragon*

On March 29, 2018, we concluded the Paragon Transaction, subsequently acquiring the majority of the remaining shares in July 2018. At the closing of the Paragon Transaction, Paragon owned two premium jack-up rigs, 20 standard jack-up rigs (built before 2000) and one semi-submersible (built in 1979) (the "Paragon Rigs"). The Paragon Transaction provided us with a solid operational platform which matches the quality of our jack-up fleet. As part of the acquisition, Paragon became a subsidiary of

------

Borr Drilling. Subsequent to the acquisition, we divested all standard jack-up rigs and the one semi-submersible rig in the Paragon Transaction as there was no economic incentive to reactivate these rigs.

*(v) Acquisition from Keppel*

On May 16, 2018, we entered into an agreement with Keppel to acquire five premium jack-up rigs under construction from Keppel (the "Keppel Acquisition"). The purchase price for the Keppel Rigs was $742.5 million. We took delivery of the newbuild jack-up rigs "Hermod", "Heimdal" (in 2022 renamed "Arabia I" and "Arabia II"), and "Hild" in October 2019, January 2020 and April 2020, respectively. We were due to take delivery of the remaining two newbuild jack-up rigs "Huldra" and "Heidrun" under the agreement in 2020, however, the delivery of these rigs was initially deferred to 2022 and subsequently to 2023 following the Company's agreement with Keppel entered into in 2021 and 2022. In the quarter ended December 31, 2022 we sold "Huldra" and "Heidrun" to an unrelated third party, and the rigs are scheduled to be delivered to the buyer in May 2023 and July 2023, respectively.

*(vi) Acquisition of Keppel's Hull B378*

In March 2019, we entered into an assignment agreement with BOTL Lease Co. Ltd. for the assignment of the rights and obligations under a construction contract to take delivery of one KFELS Super B Bigfoot premium jack-up rig identified as Keppel's Hull No. B378 from Keppel for a purchase price of $122.1 million. The construction contract was, at the same time, novated to our subsidiary, Borr Jack-Up XXXII Inc., and amended. We took delivery of the jack-up rig on May 9, 2019 and the rig was subsequently renamed "Thor."

*Divestments*

From time to time we consider opportunities to sell our standard jack-up rigs if it can be achieved in a manner in which such jack-up rigs are contractually obligated to leave the jack-up drilling market, thereby decreasing the worldwide supply of jack-up rigs available for contract.

In 2018, we divested 18 jack-up rigs for total proceeds of $37.6 million.

In May 2019, we entered into sale agreements for the sale of the "Eir," "Baug" and "Paragon C20051," none of which were operating or on contract. The jack-up rigs were sold with a contractual obligation not to be used for drilling purposes and therefore have been retired from the international jack-up fleet. The sales of "Baug" and "Paragon C20051" were completed in May 2019 for total cash consideration of $6.0 million and the sale of "Eir" was completed in October 2020 for cash consideration of $3.0 million.

In March 2020, we sold "B391" for recycling for total proceeds of $0.4 million and in April 2020, we sold "B152" and "Dhabi II" with associated backlog for total proceeds of $15.8 million. In May 2020, we entered into an agreement to sell the semi-submersible MSS1, built in 1981, for recycling for total proceeds of $2.3 million, and in November 2020, we entered into an agreement to sell the "Atla" and "Balder", neither of which were operating or on contract. The sale of "Atla" was completed in December of 2020, and the company received total proceeds of $10.0 million, while the sale of "Balder" was completed in February 2021 for total proceeds of $4.4 million.

In September 2022, we entered into an agreement with a third party to sell the three rigs under construction "Tivar", "Heidrun" and "Huldra" for total consideration of $320.0 million. The Company and Keppel agreed to novate the rights and obligations under the newbuilding contracts for the three rigs from the Company to the buyer, thereby releasing the Company from all obligations under these contracts. The "Tivar" was delivered to the buyer in November 2022, and the "Huldra" and "Heidrun" are scheduled to be delivered to the buyer in May 2023 and July 2023, respectively.

In November 2022, we sold the "Gyme" for a price of $120.0 million, pursuant to an undertaking by the Company under its most recent refinancing with PPL completed in October 2022.

Since 2018, the divestments described above bring the total number of jack-up rigs divested by us to 30 plus one semi-submersible.

**OUR BUSINESS**

**Our Competitive Strengths**

We believe that our competitive strengths include the following:

*One of the largest jack-up drilling rig contractors with one of the youngest fleets*

We have one of the youngest and largest fleets in the jack-up drilling market. All of our rigs were built after 2011 and, as of December 31, 2022, the average age of our premium fleet (excluding our newbuilds not yet delivered) is 6.0 years (implying an average building year of 2017), which we believe is among the lowest average fleet age in the industry. New and modern rigs that offer technically capable, operationally flexible, safe and reliable contracting are increasingly preferred by customers. We compete for and secure new drilling contracts from new tenders as well as privately negotiated transactions, which we estimate represent approximately half of new contract opportunities. We believe, based on our young fleet and growing operational track record, that we are better placed to secure new drilling contracts as offshore drilling demand rises, than our competitors who operate older, less modern fleets.

*Largely uniform and modern fleet*

As our fleet is one of the youngest and largest jack-up drilling fleets, and the operating capability of our jack-up rigs is largely uniform, we have the capacity to bid for multiple contracts simultaneously, including those requiring active employment of multiple rigs over the same period, as in the case of our operations for PEMEX in Mexico and Saudi Aramco in Saudi Arabia. We have acquired (including newbuilds not yet delivered) a fleet of premium jack-up rigs from shipyards with a reputation for quality and reliability. Moreover, due to the uniformity of the jack-up rigs in our fleet, we have been able to achieve operational and administrative efficiencies.

*Commitment to safety and the environment*

We are focused on developing a strong quality, health, safety and environment ("QHSE"), culture and performance history. We believe that the combination of quality jack-up rigs and experienced and skilled employees contributes to the safety and effectiveness of our operations. Since the 2010 Deepwater Horizon Incident (to which we were not a party to), there has been an increased focus on offshore drilling QHSE issues by regulators as well as by the industry. As a result, E&P Companies have imposed increasingly stringent QHSE rules on their contractors, especially when working on challenging wells and operations where the QHSE risks are higher. Our commitment to strong QHSE culture and performance is reflected in our Technical Utilization rate, excluding Mexico operations, of 98.9% in 2022 (98.4% in 2021), and our excellent safety record over the same period. We believe our focus on providing safe and efficient drilling services will enhance our growth prospects as we work towards becoming one of the preferred providers in the industry as the market continues to recover.

*Strong and diverse customer relationships*

We have strong relationships with our customers rooted in our employees' expertise, reputation and history in the offshore drilling industry, as well as our growing operational track record and the quality of our fleet. Our customers are oil and gas E&P Companies, including integrated oil companies, state-owned national oil companies and independent oil and gas companies. For the year ended December 31, 2022, our five largest customers in terms of revenue, including related party revenue were Perfomex, PTTEP, ENI Congo S.A., Vaalco Gabon S.A. and Addax Petroleum S.A.. We believe that we are responsive and flexible in addressing our customers' specific needs and seek collaborative solutions to achieve customer objectives. We focus on strong operational performance and close alignment with our customers' interests, which we believe provides us with a competitive advantage and will contribute to contracting success and rig utilization.

*Management team and Board members with extensive experience in the drilling industry*

Our management team and Board of Directors have extensive experience in the oil and gas industry in general and in the drilling industry in particular. In addition, members of our management team have extensive experience with drilling companies and companies in the oil and gas industry operating in the jack-up drilling market. Members of our management team and Board have held leadership positions at prominent offshore drilling and oilfield services companies, including Schlumberger Limited, Marine Drilling Companies, Inc., Seadrill Limited and North Atlantic Drilling Ltd and have experience which complements one another and have assisted, and continue to assist, in our ongoing development.

------

**Our Business Strategies**

We intend to continue to strive to meet our primary business objective of continuing to be a preferred operator to our customers in the jack-up drilling market while also maximizing the return to our shareholders. To achieve this, our strategies include the following:

*Deploy high-quality rigs to service the industry*

We have one of the leading jack-up rig fleets in the industry. We believe that shallow-water drilling, such as that performed by our jack-up rigs, has a shorter lifecycle between exploration and first oil and lower capital expenditure than other forms of drilling performed by mobile offshore drilling units, such as drillships. We believe this makes shallow-water drilling more attractive than deep-water projects in the current economic and industry climates. We believe our footprint in the industry is growing. Between April 1, 2018, and December 31, 2022, (excluding backlog from joint venture operations which earns related party revenue) we signed 64 new contracts (47 as at December 31, 2021) for drilling services with an aggregate value of approximately $1,713.0 million ($881.0 million as at December 31, 2021), including 35 (29 as at December 31, 2021) with new customers. During this period, we also signed six extensions and have had 23 options exercised. As of March 23, 2023, 21 of our 22 rigs are under contract or committed for future contracts. Our Economic Utilization, which reflects the proportion of the potential full contractual dayrate that each contracted jack-up rig actually earned each day, excluding Mexico operations, for the year ended December 31, 2022 was 98.1% (94.8% in 2021).

*Be a preferred provider in the industry*

We have established strong and long-term relationships with key participants and customers in the offshore drilling industry, and we seek to deepen and strengthen these relationships as part of our strategy. This involves identifying value add services for our customers. Based on our largely premium, young and uniform fleet, our experienced team and a solid industry network, we believe that we are well-positioned to capitalize on improving trends as we seek to continue to establish ourselves as a preferred provider to these customers.

*Establish high-quality, cost-efficient operations*

We intend to establish ourselves as a leading offshore shallow-water drilling company by operating with a competitive cost base while continuing to grow our reputation as a high-quality contractor. Our key objective is to deliver the best operations possible— both in terms of Technical Utilization and QHSE culture and performance while maximizing deployment of our rigs and maintaining a competitive cost structure.

To facilitate our strategy, we have one of the most modern and uniform fleets in the industry, with experienced and skilled individuals across the organization and on our Board. We believe we have an advantage with regard to operating expenditures as a result of our largely standardized fleet.

**Our Fleet**

We believe that we have one of the most modern jack-up fleets in the offshore drilling industry. Our drilling fleet currently consists of 22 rigs, of which all are premium jack-up rigs. In addition, we have agreed to purchase two additional premium jack-up rigs to be delivered during the third quarter of 2025. We define premium jack-up rigs as rigs built in 2000 or later and which are suitable for operations in water depths up to 400 feet with an independent leg cantilever design. All but one of our rigs were built after 2013 and as of December 31, 2022, the average age of our fleet was 6.0 years.

Jack-up rigs are mobile, self-elevating drilling platforms equipped with legs that are lowered to the seabed. A jack-up rig is towed to the drill site with its hull riding in the water and its legs raised. At the drill site, the jack-up rigs' legs are lowered until they penetrate the seabed. Its hull is then elevated (jacked-up) until it is above the surface of the water. After the completion of drilling operations at a drill site, the hull is lowered until it rests on the water and the legs are raised at which point the rig can then be relocated to another drill site. Jack-up rigs typically operate in shallow water, generally in water depths of less than 400 feet and with crews of 90 to 150 people. We believe a modern fleet allows us to enjoy better utilization and higher daily rates for our jack-up rigs than competitors with older rigs.

As of December 31, 2022, we had 22 jack-up rigs, of which one rig was "warm stacked," meaning the rig is kept ready for redeployment and retain a maintenance crew. We also had two newbuild rigs under construction which are expected to be delivered in 2025. As of December 31, 2022, we had zero rigs "cold stacked", meaning the rig is stored in a harbor, shipyard or a

------

designated offshore area and the crew is reassigned to an active rig or dismissed. We believe that well-planned and well-managed stacking will significantly reduce reactivation cost and the cost of mobilization of a rig towards a contract.

Each rig in our fleet is certified by the American Bureau of Shipping ("ABS"), enabling universal recognition of our equipment as qualified for international operations. The key characteristics of our rigs owned but not under contract which may yield differences in their marketability or readiness for use include whether such rigs are warm stacked or cold stacked, age of the rig, geographic location and technical specifications.

The following table sets forth additional information regarding our consolidated jack-up rig fleet as of March 23, 2023:

**Customer and Contract Backlog**

Our customers are oil and gas exploration and production companies, including integrated oil companies, state-owned national oil companies and independent oil and gas companies. As of December 31, 2022, our largest customers in terms of revenue were Perfomex, PTTEP, ENI Congo S.A., Vaalco Gabon S.A. and Addax Petroleum S.A.. Our jack-up rigs are contracted to customers for periods between a couple of months, to several years.

As of December 31, 2022, excluding our joint venture operations in Mexico, we had 16 operating or committed jack-up rigs in total, including six in South East Asia, five in West Africa, one in the North Sea, one in Mexico and three in the Middle East. The Technical Utilization and Economic Utilization for our drilling fleet, excluding Mexico operations, was 98.9% and 98.1%, respectively during 2022.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, we received a number of new contracts, letters of award and options exercised, increasing our total contract backlog, excluding our joint venture operations in Mexico, to $929.8 million as at December 31, 2022, a significant increase from $324.8 million as at December 31, 2021. Amounts of actual revenues earned and the periods for

------

which revenues are earned may be different from the Total Contract Backlog projections due to several factors, including shipyard and maintenance projects, downtime or standby time, and various other factors which may result in lower revenues than implied by our total contract backlog. For example, downtime, caused by unscheduled repairs, maintenance, weather and other operating factors, may result in lower applicable daily rates than the full contractual operating daily rate.

*Contractual Terms*

Our drilling contracts are individually negotiated and vary in their terms and provisions. We obtain most of our drilling contracts through competitive bidding against other contractors and direct negotiations with operators.

Our drilling contracts provide for payment on a dayrate basis, with higher rates for periods while the jack-up rig is operating. A dayrate drilling contract generally extends over a period of time covering either the drilling of a single well or group of wells or covering a stated term. We currently only have dayrate contracts for which the customer bears substantially all of the ancillary costs of constructing the well and supporting drilling operations, as well as the economic risk relative to the success of the well. In addition, dayrate contracts may provide for a lump sum amount or dayrate for mobilizing or demobilizing the rig to and from the operating location, which is usually lower than the contractual dayrate for uptime services, and a reduced dayrate when drilling operations are interrupted or restricted by equipment breakdowns, adverse weather conditions or other conditions beyond our control.

Certain of our drilling contracts contain terms which allow them to be terminated at the option of the customer, in some cases upon payment of an early termination fee or compensation for costs incurred up to termination. Any such payments, however, may not fully compensate us for the loss of the contract. Contracts also customarily provide for either automatic termination or termination at the option of the customer, typically without any termination payment, in certain circumstances such as non-performance, in the event of extended downtime or impaired performance caused by equipment or operational issues or periods of extended downtime due to other conditions beyond our control, of which there are many. A number of our customers have contractual rights to terminate their contracts with us if performance is prevented for prolonged period due to force majeure events. We may also be affected by force majeure provisions in contracts between our customers or suppliers and third parties. We may also face contract suspension due to prevailing market conditions.

The contract term in some instances may be extended by the customer exercising options for the drilling of additional wells or for an additional term. Our contracts also typically include a provision that allows the customer to extend the contract to finish drilling a well-in-progress. During periods of depressed market conditions, our customers may seek to renegotiate firm drilling contracts to reduce the term of their obligations or the average dayrate through term extensions, or may seek to suspend, terminate or repudiate their contracts. Suspension of drilling contracts will result in the reduction in or loss of dayrate for the period of the suspension. If our customers cancel some of our contracts and we are unable to secure new contracts on a timely basis and on substantially similar terms, or if contracts are suspended for an extended period of time or if a number of our contracts are renegotiated, it could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. See "Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Material Factors Affecting Results of Operations and Future Results" for more information.

Consistent with standard industry practice, our customers generally assume, and indemnify us against, well control and subsurface risks under dayrate drilling contracts. Under all of our current drilling contracts, our customers, as the operators, indemnify us for pollution damages in connection with reservoir fluids stemming from operations under the contract and we indemnify the operator for pollution from substances in our control that originate from the rig, such as diesel used onboard the rig or other fluids stored onboard the rig and above the water surface. In addition, under all of our current drilling contracts, the operator indemnifies us against damage to the well or reservoir and loss of subsurface oil and gas and the cost of bringing the well under control. However, our drilling contracts are individually negotiated, and the degree of indemnification we receive from the operator against the liabilities discussed above can vary from contract to contract, based on market conditions and customer requirements existing when the contract is negotiated. In some instances, we have contractually agreed upon certain limits to our indemnification rights and can be responsible for damages up to a specified maximum dollar amount. The nature of our liability and the prevailing market conditions, among other factors, can influence such contractual terms. In most instances in which we are indemnified for damages to the well, we have the responsibility to redrill the well at a reduced dayrate as the customer's sole and exclusive remedy if such well damages are due to our negligence. Notwithstanding a contractual indemnity from a customer, there can be no assurance that our customers will be financially able to indemnify us or will otherwise honor their contractual indemnity obligations.

Although our drilling contracts are the result of negotiations with our customers, our drilling contracts may also contain, among other things, the following commercial terms: (i) payment by us of the operating expenses of the drilling rig, including crew labor and incidental rig supply costs; (ii) provisions entitling us to adjustments of dayrates (or revenue escalation payments) in

------

accordance with published indices, changes in law or otherwise; (iii) provisions requiring us to provide a performance guarantee; and (iv) provisions permitting the assignment to a third party with our prior consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

**Joint Venture and Partner Relationships**

In some areas of the world, local content requirements, customs and practice, necessitate the formation of joint ventures with local participation. Local laws or customs or customer requirements in some jurisdictions also effectively mandate the establishment of a relationship with a local agent or partner. For more information regarding certain local content requirements that may be applicable to our operations from time to time, please see the section entitled "Item 4.B. Business Overview — Regulation — Environmental And Other Regulations in the Offshore Drilling Industry — Local Content Requirements." When appropriate in these jurisdictions, we will enter into agency or other contractual arrangements. We may or may not control these joint ventures. We participate in joint venture drilling operations in Mexico and may participate in additional joint venture drilling operations in the future. We may also enter into joint ventures even if not required, where we seek to partner with another party.

*Mexico*

In February 2019, we, along with our local partner in Mexico, CME, successfully tendered for a contract to provide integrated well services ("IWS") to Pemex. On March 20, 2019, our subsidiary, Borr Drilling Mexico S. de R.L. de C.V. ("BDM"), and a CME subsidiary, Opex (together with BDM, the "Contractor"), entered into a contract for the provision of IWS to Pemex (the "Cluster 2 Contract"). Borr Drilling Limited guaranteed the performance of the Contractor's obligations under the first Pemex Contract and our subsidiary, Borr Mexico Ventures Limited ("BMV") participated as shareholder in the joint venture arrangements in connection with the Cluster 2 Contract (the "IWS JVs"). In June 2019, we finalized the IWS JVs structure and with effect from June 28, 2019, BMV owned a 49% interest in both Opex and a second joint venture entity, Perfomex and CME owned the remaining 51%. Operations under the first Pemex Contract commenced in August 2019. The Pemex Cluster 2 Contract was extended in December 2019 to include a third rig. In December 2019, we also participated with CME to take an assignment of a second integrated contract with Pemex under a similar structure for two further rigs (the "Cluster 3 Contract" and, together with the Cluster 2 Contract, the "Pemex Contracts"). For the purposes of these additional contracts, two new subsidiaries were incorporated with the same shareholding interests as Opex and Perfomex; Akal was established to deliver IWS to Pemex, and Perfomex II to deliver drilling, technical, management and logistics services to Akal. Operations under the Cluster 3 Contract commenced in March 2020.

Opex and Akal were IWS contractors under the Pemex Contracts and within the structure of the IWS JVs. Opex and Akal entered into contracts with Schlumberger, and certain of its affiliates, and other third party contractors for the provision of IWS. Perfomex and Perfomex II were the entities subcontracted by Opex and Akal, respectively, to provide the other services required by Opex and Akal in order to comply with their respective obligations under the Pemex Contracts. In connection with the provision of drilling services by Perfomex and Perfomex II, our rigs "Grid", "Gersemi" and "Galar" (for the Cluster 2 Contract) and "Odin" and "Njord" (for the Cluster 3 Contract) were chartered to Perfomex and Perfomex II, respectively, under bareboat charter agreements. In addition to the rigs, we provided technical and operational management for all jack-up rigs being operated through the IWS JVs.

On August 4, 2021, the Company's subsidiary BMV executed a Stock Purchase Agreement with Operadora for the sale of the Company's 49% interest in each of Opex and Akal joint ventures, representing the Company's disposal of the IWS operating segment, as well as the acquisition of a 2% incremental interest in each of Perfomex and Perfomex II joint ventures. The sale enabled us to streamline our operations in Mexico, and focus on our dayrate drilling services provided by the remaining Mexican Joint Ventures. Connected with the sale, we received cash consideration of $10.6 million, and a repayment of funding of $5.4 million.

Effective October 20, 2022, all five jack-up rigs "Grid", "Gersemi", "Galar", "Odin" and "Njord" are contracted to Perfomex on bareboat charters, thereby consolidating activities for Perfomex's provision of traditional dayrate drilling and technical services to Opex. Effective from this date, Perfomex II continues to provide technical services to Opex, in addition to rig management services to external parties.

Our Mexican Joint Ventures may be used to provide drilling services utilizing other rigs owned by our subsidiaries and/or subsidiaries of CME and, if we enter into further contracts with Pemex to provide drilling services, we may enter into other joint venture structures with CME in order to provide such services.

------

**Geographical Focus**

We bid for contracts globally, however our current geographical focus is South East Asia, Europe, Mexico, Middle East, and West Africa. This is based on our current assessment of potential contracting opportunities, including, pre-tender and tender activity. Several countries within these regions, such as Nigeria and Qatar, have laws that regulate operations and/or ownership of rigs operating within their jurisdiction, including local content and/or local partner requirements. In order to comply with these regulations, and successfully secure contracts to operate in these regions, we have employed personnel with significant experience in countries within these regions. Adapting to the above-mentioned factors is, and will continue to be, part of our business. See Note 4 - Segments of our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included herein for the amount of operating revenues earned by each geographical region for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020.

**Suppliers**

Our material supply needs include labor agencies, insurance brokers, maintenance providers, shipyard access and drilling equipment. Our senior management team has extensive experience in the oil and gas industry in general, and in the offshore drilling industry in particular, and has built an extensive industry network. We believe that our relationships with our key suppliers and service providers is critical as it allows us to benefit from economies of scale in the procurement of goods and services and sub-contracting work.

**Competition**

The shallow-water offshore contract drilling industry is highly competitive. We compete on a worldwide basis and competition varies by region at any particular time. Our competition ranges from large international companies offering a wide range of drilling and other oilfield services to smaller, locally owned companies. Some of our competitors' fleets comprise a combination of offshore, onshore, shallow, midwater and deepwater rigs. We seek to differentiate our company from most of our competitors, which have mixed fleets, by exclusively focusing on shallow-water drilling which we believe allows us to optimize our size and scale and achieve operational efficiency.

Drilling contracts are traditionally awarded on a competitive basis, whether through tender or private negotiations. We believe that the principal competitive factors in the markets we serve are pricing, technical capability of service and equipment, condition and age of equipment, rig availability, rig location, safety record, crew quality, operating integrity, reputation, industry standing and customer relations. We have made significant equity investments in our jack-up rigs and have built a fleet consisting of premium jack-up rigs with proven design and quality equipment, acquired at what we believe are attractive prices. We believe that our fleet of high-quality jack-up rigs allows us to competitively bid on industry tenders on the basis of the modern technical capability, condition and age of our jack-up rigs. In addition, we believe our focus on QHSE performance will complement our modern fleet, further allowing us to competitively bid for drilling contracts.

**Seasonality**

In general, seasonal factors do not have a significant direct effect on our business. However, we have operations in certain parts of the world where weather conditions during parts of the year could adversely impact the operational utilization of the rigs and our ability to relocate rigs between drilling locations, and as such, limit contract opportunities in the short term. Such adverse weather could occur during, among other times, the winter season in the North Sea, hurricane season in the Mexican Gulf and the monsoon season in South East Asia.

**Risk of Loss and Insurance**

Our operations are subject to hazards inherent in the drilling of oil and gas wells, including blowouts, punch through, loss of control of the well, abnormal drilling conditions, mechanical or technological failures, seabed cratering, fires and pollution, which could cause personal injury, suspend drilling operations, or seriously damage or destroy the equipment involved. Offshore drilling contractors such as us are also subject to hazards particular to marine operations, including capsizing, grounding, collision and loss or damage from severe weather. Litigation arising from such an event may result in us being named a defendant in lawsuits asserting large claims.

As is customary in the drilling industry, we attempt to mitigate our exposure to some of these risks through indemnification arrangements and insurance policies. We carry insurance coverage for our operations in line with industry practice and our insurance policies provide insurance cover for physical damage to the rigs, loss of income for certain rigs and third-party liability, including:

------

*Physical Damage Insurance: Hull and Machinery Insurance*

We purchase hull and machinery insurance for our entire fleet and all of our fleet equipment to cover the risk of physical damage to a rig. The level of coverage for each rig reflects its agreed value when the insurance is placed. We effectively self-insure part of the risk as any claim we make under our insurance will be subject to a deductible. The deductible for each rig reflects the market value of the rig and is currently a weighted average maximum of approximately $1.0 million per claim.

*War Risk Insurance*

We maintain war risk insurance for our rigs up to a maximum amount of $500 million per rig depending on the value of the protection and indemnity and hull and machinery insurance policies for each rig and subject to certain coverage limits, deductibles and exclusions. The terms of our war risk policies include a provision whereby underwriters can, upon service of seven days' prior written notice to the insured, cancel the policies in the event that the insured has or may have breached sanctions. Further, the policies will automatically terminate after the outbreak of war, or war-like conditions, between two or more of China, the United States, the United Kingdom, Russia and France.

*Loss of Hire Insurance*

We maintain loss of hire insurance for certain of our jack-up rigs to cover loss of revenue in the event of extensive downtime caused by physical damage covered by our hull and machinery insurance policies. Provided such downtime continues for more than 45 days, the policies will cover an agreed daily rate of hire for such downtime up to a maximum of 180 days, not to exceed 100% of the daily loss of hire for such period. The decision to obtain loss of hire insurance is taken where required by the terms of our finance agreements in respect and otherwise on a case-by-case basis whenever a rig is contracted for drilling operations. The amount covered under a loss of hire policy will depend on, among other things, the duration of the contract, the contract rates and other terms of the relevant drilling contract.

*Protection and Indemnity Insurance*

We purchase protection and indemnity insurance and excess umbrella liability insurance. Our protection and indemnity insurance covers third-party liabilities arising from the operation of our rigs, including personal injury or death (for crew and other third-parties), collisions, damage to fixed and floating objects and statutory liability for oil spills and the release of other forms of pollution, such as bunkers, and wreck removal. The protection and indemnity insurance policies, together with our excess umbrella policy, cover claims up to the maximum of the agreed total claim amount, but not exceeding the maximum of $510 million (for our operational rigs) or $210 million (for our stacked rigs), as applicable, depending on contractual obligations and area of operation. The excess umbrella insurance policy referred to above covers an additional $100 million to $300 million per event, in addition to our protection and indemnity insurance policies, as part of our overall combined maximum insurance coverage. If the aggregate value of a claim against one of our rig-owning subsidiaries under a protection and indemnity insurance policy exceeds the maximum of $210 million or $310 million (for our rigs in Mexico), the excess umbrella insurance policy will cover an additional agreed amount. We are self-insured for costs in excess of the overall combined maximum limit of coverage, or $210 million for stacked rigs and the agreed aggregate limit between $310 million and $510 million for an operational rig, as agreed. If the aggregate value of a claim against one of our subsidiaries under a protection and indemnity insurance policy exceeds $210 million or $310 million, the excess umbrella policy will for rigs that are not laid-up cover an additional sum between $100 million and $300 million as agreed for each rig, but maximum $510 million combined, meaning that we are self-insured for costs in excess of the total combined limit, as agreed. We retain the risk for the deductible of up to $25,000 per claim relating to protection and indemnity insurance or up to $250,000 for claims made in the United States.

We also maintain insurance policies and excess insurance policies against general liability and public liability for onshore statutory and contractual risks, mainly related to employment, tenant, warehouses and other on-shore activities. The insured value under each individual policy is between $1 million and $5 million and is complemented by the excess umbrella policy which provides for an additional aggregate excess limit of $50 million per annum.

Management's determination of the appropriate level of insurance coverage is made on an individual asset basis taking into account several factors, including the age, market value, cash flow value and replacement value of our jack-up rigs, their location and operational status.

------

**LEGAL PROCEEDINGS**

We are from time to time involved in civil litigation, and we anticipate that we will be involved in such litigation matters from time to time in the future. The operating hazards inherent in our business expose us to a wide range of legal claims including claims arising from personal injury; environmental issues; claims from and against contractual counterparties such as customers, suppliers, partners and agents; intellectual property litigation; tax or securities claims and maritime claims, including the possible arrest of our jack-up rigs. Risks associated with litigation include the risk of having to make a payment to satisfy a judgment against us, legal and other costs associated with asserting our claims or defending lawsuits, and the diversion of management's attention to these matters. Even if successful, we may not be able to recover all of our costs.

Our subsidiary Paragon Offshore (Netherlands) BV is a party to a court proceeding in Brazil and it was recently granted a favorable court award in such proceeding, although this is an on-going court proceeding and is subject to an appeal process. We will not receive any material economic interest from any such award.

**REGULATION**

We are registered under the laws of Bermuda and our principal executive offices are located in Bermuda. The management headquarters of Borr Drilling Management UK are located in the United Kingdom, while we have business operations in four regions; Europe, Asia, Africa and Americas as well as in various countries where our rigs are operating or stacked. As a result of this organizational structure and the scope of our operations, we are subject to a variety of laws in different countries, including those related to the environment, health and safety, personal privacy and data protection, content restrictions, telecommunications, intellectual property, advertising and marketing, labor, foreign exchange, competition and taxation. These laws and regulations are constantly evolving and may be interpreted, implemented or amended in a manner that could harm our business. It also is likely that if our business grows and evolves and our rigs and services are used more globally, we will become subject to laws and regulations in additional jurisdictions. This section sets forth the summary of material laws and regulations relevant to our business operations.

**Environmental and Other Regulations in the Offshore Drilling Industry**

Our operations are subject to numerous QHSE laws and regulations in the form of international treaties and maritime regimes, flag state requirements, national environmental laws and regulations which may include laws or regulations pertaining to climate change, carbon emissions or energy use, navigation and operating permits requirements, local content requirements, and other national, state and local laws and regulations in force in the jurisdictions in which our jack-up rigs operate or are registered, which can significantly affect the ownership and operation of our jack-up rigs. See the section entitled "Item 3.D. Risk Factors — Risk Factors Related to Applicable Laws and Regulations — We are subject to complex environmental laws and regulations that can adversely affect the cost, manner or feasibility of doing business."

*Class and Flag State Requirements*

Each of our rigs is subject to regulatory requirements of its flag state. Flag state requirements reflect international maritime requirements and are in some cases further interpolated by the flag state itself. These include engineering, safety and other requirements related to offshore industries generally. In addition, in order to be permitted to operate, each of our jack-up rigs must be certified by a classification society as being "in-class," which provides evidence that the jack-up rig was built, and is maintained, in accordance with the rules of the relevant classification society and complies with applicable rules and regulations of the flag state as well as the international conventions to which that country is a party. Maintenance of class certification has a significant cost and although dry docking is not necessary for the five year special periodic survey or underwater inspections which are required every thirty months, in each case being required to verify the integrity of our jack-up rigs and maintain compliance with class requirements, we could be required to take a jack-up rig out of service for repairs or modifications. Our jack-up rigs are certified as being "in-class" by ABS and we comply with the mandatory requirements of the national authorities in the countries in which our jack-up rigs operate. In addition, classification societies are authorized to issue statutory certificates on the basis of delegated authority from the flag states for some of the internationally required certifications, such as the Code for the Construction and Equipment of Mobile Offshore Drilling Units certificate.

*International Maritime Regimes*

Applicable international maritime regime requirements include, but are not limited to, the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships, the International Convention on Civil Liability for Oil Pollution Damage of 1969, the International Convention on Civil Liability for Bunker Oil Pollution Damage of 2001 (ratified in 2008), the International

------

Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea of 1974, the Code for the Construction and Equipment of Mobile Offshore Drilling Units, 2009 and the International Convention for the Control and Management of Ships' Ballast Water and Sediments, effective as of 2017 (the "BWM Convention"). These conventions have been widely adopted by United Nation member countries, and in some jurisdictions in which we operate, these regulations have been expanded upon. These various conventions regulate air emissions and other discharges to the environment from our jack-up rigs worldwide, and we may incur costs to comply with these regimes and continue to comply with these regimes as they may be amended in the future. In addition, these conventions impose liability for certain discharges, including strict liability in some cases.

Annex VI to MARPOL sets limits on sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide emissions from ship exhausts and prohibits deliberate emissions of ozone depleting substances. Annex VI applies to all ships and, among other things, imposes a global cap on the sulfur content of fuel oil and allows for specialized areas to be established internationally with even more stringent controls on sulfur emissions. For vessels 400 gross tons and greater, platforms and drilling rigs, Annex VI imposes various survey and certification requirements. Moreover, Annex VI regulations impose progressively stricter limitations on sulfur emissions from ships. Since January 1, 2015, these limitations have required that fuels of vessels in covered ECAs, including the Baltic Sea, North Sea, North America and United States Caribbean Sea ECAs, contain no more than 0.1% sulfur. For non-ECA-areas, a global cap on sulfur content of no more than 0.5% entered into force on January 1, 2020. Annex VI also established new tiers of stringent nitrogen oxide emissions standards for new marine engines, depending on their date of installation. All of our rigs are in compliance with these requirements.

The BWM Convention required for a phased introduction of mandatory ballast water exchange requirements (beginning in 2009), to be replaced in time with a requirement for mandatory ballast water treatment. The BWM Convention entered into force on September 8, 2017. Under its requirements, for jack-up rigs with a ballast water capacity of more than 5,000 cubic meters that were constructed in 2011 or before, only ballast water treatment will be accepted by the BWM Convention. All of our jack-up rigs considered in operational status are in full compliance with the staged implementation of the BWM Convention by IMO guidelines.

*Environmental Laws and Regulations*

We are subject to laws which govern discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relate to environmental protection, including complying with regulations on the transit and safe recycling of hazardous materials which are relevant when we retire rigs from the international fleet. In certain circumstances, these laws may impose strict liability, rendering us liable for environmental and natural resource damages without regard to negligence or fault on our part. Implementation of new environmental laws or regulations that may apply to jack-up rigs may subject us to increased costs or limit the operational capabilities of our rigs and could materially and adversely affect our operations and financial condition. Applicable environmental laws and regulations for our current operations include the Basel Convention, the Hong Kong International Convention for the Safe and Environmentally Sound Recycling of Ships, 2009 (when it enters into force) as well as European Union regulations, including the E.U. Directive 2013/30 on the Safety of Offshore Oil and Gas Operations, Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 on Shipments of Waste and Regulation (E.U.) No 1257/2013 on Ship Recycling. Were we to operate in other regions, such as the US or Brazil, additional environmental laws and regulations would apply to our operations.

*Safety Requirements*

Our operations are subject to special safety regulations relating to drilling and to the oil and gas industry in many of the countries where we operate. Other countries are also undertaking a review of their safety regulations related to our industry. These safety regulations may impact our operations and financial results by adding to the costs of exploring for, developing and producing oil and gas in offshore settings. The rule contains a number of other requirements, including third-party verification and certifications, real-time monitoring of deepwater and certain other activities, and sets criteria for safe drilling margins. If material spill events were to occur in the future, certain countries could elect to again issue directives to temporarily cease drilling activities and, in any event, may from time-to-time issue additional safety and environmental laws and regulations regarding offshore oil and gas exploration and development. The E.U. has also undertaken a significant revision of its safety requirements for offshore oil and gas activity through the issuance of the E.U. Directive 2013/30 on the Safety of Offshore Oil and Gas Operations.

*Navigation and Operating Permit Requirements*

Numerous governmental agencies issue regulations to implement and enforce the laws of the applicable jurisdiction, which often involve lengthy permitting procedures, impose difficult and costly compliance measures, particularly in ecologically sensitive

------

areas, and subject operators to substantial administrative, civil and criminal penalties or may result in injunctive relief for failure to comply. Some of these laws contain criminal sanctions in addition to civil penalties.

*Local Content Requirements*

Governments in some countries have become increasingly active in local content requirements on the ownership of drilling companies, local content requirements for equipment utilized in operations within the country and other aspects of the oil and gas industries in their countries. These regulations include requirements for participation of local investors in our local operating subsidiaries, including in Mexico. Some foreign governments favor or effectively require (i) the awarding of drilling contracts to local contractors or to drilling rigs owned by their own citizens, (ii) the use of a local agent or (iii) foreign contractors to employ citizens of, or purchase supplies from, a particular jurisdiction. In addition, national oil companies may impose restrictions on the submission of tenders, including eligibility criteria, which effectively require the use of domestically supplied goods and services or a local partner.

*Data Protection Laws and Regulations*

We are subject to rules and regulations governing protection of personal data including the GDPR, repealing the 1995 European Data Protection Directive (Directive 95/46/EC) and any national laws within the European Economic Area ("EEA") supplementing the GDPR. Data protection legislation, including the GDPR, regulates the manner in which we may hold, use and communicate personal data of our employees, customers, vendors and other third parties. Data protection is a sector of significant regulatory focus with scrutiny of cybersecurity practices and the collection, storage, use and sharing of personal data increasing around the world. As a consequence, there is uncertainty associated with the legal and regulatory environment relating to privacy, e-privacy and data protection laws, which continue to develop in ways we cannot predict. Changes in applicable data protection and cybersecurity legislation could materially and adversely affect our business.

The companies within our Group which are employers are "data controllers" for the purposes of the GDPR, meaning that, among other obligations, they are required to ensure that personal data collected for instance from our employees is safely stored, that its accuracy is maintained (meaning that inaccurate data is corrected) and that personal data is only stored for as long as necessary further to the purpose for which it was collected. With respect to transfers of our employees' personal data that is subject to the GDPR, whether externally to third parties or internally within our Group, the GDPR requires that we establish safeguards to ensure that personal data is safely transferred and that the rights of the data subject are respected and upheld.

The companies within our Group which communicate with vendors and other third parties, in connection with contracts or otherwise, may be "data controllers" or "data processors" for the purposes of the GDPR and are required to handle any personal data received from vendors and other third parties in accordance with the provisions of the GDPR.

The GDPR applies primarily to our companies established in the EEA but may also apply to other companies in the Group to the extent that their business involves personal data of persons located within the EEA. Noncompliance with the GDPR can lead to the imposition of government enforcement actions and prosecutions, private litigation (including class actions) and administrative fines, currently up to the greater of €20 million and 4% of our global turnover in the financial year preceding the imposition of the fine, as well as an obligation to compensate the relevant individual(s) for financial or non-financial damages claimed under Article 82 of the GDPR. Any such compromise could also result in damage to our reputation and a loss of confidence in our security and privacy or data protection measures. A breach of the GDPR (or other applicable data protection legislation) could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

*Other Laws and Regulations*

In addition to the requirements described above, our international operations in the offshore drilling segment are subject to various other international conventions and laws and regulations in countries in which we operate, including laws and regulations relating to the importation of, and operation of, jack-up rigs and equipment, cabotage rules, currency conversions and repatriation, oil and gas exploration and development, taxation of offshore earnings, taxation of the earnings of expatriate personnel, the use of local employees and suppliers by foreign contractors, duties on the importation and exportation of our rigs and other equipment, local community development and social corporate responsibility requirements. There is no assurance that compliance with current laws and regulations or amended or newly adopted laws and regulations can be maintained in the future or that future expenditures required to comply with all such laws and regulations in the future will not be material.

------

**INDUSTRY OVERVIEW**

We operate in the global offshore contract drilling industry, which is a part of the international oil industry, and within the global offshore contract drilling industry we predominately operate jack-up rigs in shallow-water. The activity and pricing within the global offshore contract drilling industry is driven by a multitude of demand and supply factors, including expectations regarding oil and gas prices, anticipated oil and gas production levels, worldwide demand for oil and gas, the availability of quality reservoirs, exploration success, availability of qualified drilling rigs and operating personnel, relative production costs, the availability of or lead time required for drilling and production equipment, the stage of reservoir development and political and regulatory environments.

One fundamental demand driver is the level of investment by E&P Companies and their associated capital expenditures. Historically, the level of upstream capital expenditures has primarily been driven by future expectations regarding the price of oil and natural gas.

**Overview of the Global Offshore Contract Drilling Market**

The offshore contract drilling industry provides drilling, workover and well construction services to E&P Companies through the use of Mobile Offshore Drilling Units ("MODUs"). Historically, the offshore drilling industry has been highly cyclical. Offshore spending by E&P Companies has fluctuated substantially on an annual basis depending on a variety of factors. See "Item 3.D. Risk Factors—Risk Factors Related to Our Industry."

The profitability of the offshore contract drilling industry is largely determined by the balance between supply and demand for MODUs. Offshore drilling contractors can mobilize MODUs from one region of the world to another, or reactivate stacked rigs in order to meet demand in various markets.

Offshore drilling contractors typically operate their MODUs under contracts received either by submitting proposals in competition with other contractors or following direct negotiations. The rate of compensation specified in each contract depends on, among other factors, the number of available rigs capable of performing the work, the nature of the operations to be performed, the duration of work, the amount and type of equipment and services provided, the geographic areas involved and other variables. Generally, contracts for drilling services specify a daily rate of compensation and can vary significantly in duration, from weeks to several years. Competitive factors include, among others: price, rig availability, rig operating features, workforce experience, operating efficiency, condition of equipment, safety record, contractor experience in a specific area, reputation and customer relationships.

Periods of high demand are typically followed by a shortage of rigs and consequently higher dayrates which, in turn, makes it advantageous for industry participants to place orders for new rigs. After difficult market conditions in 2020 and 2021, we are starting to see signs of the market recovery, with E&P Companies announcing higher capital expenditures budgets for 2023 versus 2022. We have seen demand for services rising, as indicated by a large number of open rig tenders issued by national oil companies ("NOC's"), and rig utilization rates exceeding pre-COVID-19 levels reaching rates last seen in 2014.

**The Jack-Up Rig Segment**

Jack-up rigs can, in principle, be used to drill (i) exploration wells, i.e. explore for new sources of oil and gas or (ii) new production wells in an area where oil and gas is already produced; the latter activity is referred to as development drilling. Shallow-water oil and gas production is generally a low-cost production, in terms of cost per barrel of oil. As a result, and due to the shorter period from investment decision to cash flow, E&P Companies have an incentive to invest in shallow-water developments over other offshore production categories.

The jack-up drilling market is characterized by a highly competitive and fragmented supplier landscape, with market participants ranging from large international companies to small, locally owned companies and rigs owned by NOCs (the latter are referred to as owner-operated rigs). The operations of the largest players are generally dispersed around the globe due to the high mobility of most MODUs. Although the cost of moving MODUs from one region to another and/or the availability of rig-moving vessels may cause a short-term imbalance between supply and demand in one region, significant variations between regions do not exist in the long-term due to MODU mobility.

------

There are several sub-segments within the jack-up drilling segment based on different attributes of the rigs, typically water depth capability, age, hook load capacity, cantilever reach and environmental conditions a rig can operate in. The sub-segment classification varies across market participants, third parties (researchers, consultants etc.), classification societies and others. In this annual report, we have used the following classification of the jack-up sub-segments, which are as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "modern" or "premium" – rigs delivered in 2000 or later; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "standard" – rigs delivered prior to 2000.

In recent years, the jack-up drilling market has experienced a shift in demand towards modern jack-up rigs. In line with this trend, several drilling contractors are renewing their fleets through both newbuildings and rig acquisitions.

**C.ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE**

A full list of our significant management, operating and rig-owning subsidiaries is shown in Exhibit 8.1 to this annual report and the following diagram depicts our simplified organizational and ownership structure. Our significant subsidiaries depicted below are 100% owned by Borr Drilling Limited either directly or indirectly, unless specifically noted otherwise.

![borr-20221231_g1.jpg](borr-20221231_g1.jpg)

As more fully described herein, our subsidiary Borr Mexico Ventures Limited holds a 51% interest in two Mexican entities Perfomex and Perfomex II, and a subsidiary of our local operating partner in Mexico holds the remaining 49% interest.

------

During the year ended December 31, 2022, we incorporated a wholly owned entity Borr Arabia Well Drilling LLC, in Saudi Arabia. Effective January 2, 2023, 3% interest of this entity was transferred to our local operating partner in Saudi Arabia. Our 97% interest in this entity is owned by Borr Drilling Land Support Limited, a legacy Paragon Offshore entity.

**D.PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT**

We do not own any interest in real estate. Our principal executive office is located in Bermuda, while our operational headquarters are located in London. Our principal lease is the rental of approximately 16,206 sq ft of office space in Aberdeen, UK under a ten year lease which began in 2019. In addition we rent office space in Oslo, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Kuala Belait, Doha, Bangkok, London, Dubai, Al-Khobar, Douala, Pointe Noire and Port Gentil, however we do not consider these as material leases. In addition to office space, we also rent storage and yard facilities to support our operations in the countries we operate in.

We own a modern fleet of premium jack-up rigs. See "Item 4.B. Business Overview - Our Business - Our Fleet" for a summary of our consolidated fleet of jack-up rigs as well as jack-up rigs under construction as of March 23, 2023.

A number of our rig-owning subsidiaries' shares and assets are pledged to secure loan facilities. See "Item 5.B. Liquidity and Capital Resources - Our Existing Indebtedness" for more information.

To the best of our knowledge, we believe that there are no material environmental issues that would materially affect the utilization of our rigs. Notwithstanding, we are subject to several international, national, and local environmental laws, regulations, treaties and conventions which may affect the utilization of our rigs. In addition, other environmental issues may influence the Company's use of property, plant and equipment. See "Item 3.D. Risk Factors - Risk Factors Related to Applicable Laws and Regulations" and "Item 4.B. Business Overview - Regulation" above.

**ITEM 4A. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS**

None.

**ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS**

*The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included herein and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this annual report. The discussion and analysis below contain certain forward-looking statements about our business and operations that are subject to the risks, uncertainties and other factors described in the section entitled "Item 3.D. Risk Factors," and elsewhere in this annual report. These risks, uncertainties and other factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements. See the section entitled "Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements."*

**Overview of Financial Information Presented**

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 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 oil and gas drilling and workover operations for exploration and production customers.

We are a preferred operator to our customers of jack-up rigs within the jack-up drilling market. The shallow-water market is our operational focus as it has a shorter lifecycle between exploration and first oil and lower capital expenditure than other forms of drilling performed by mobile offshore drilling units, such as drillships. We contract our jack-up rigs and associated offshore crews, primarily on a dayrate basis, to drill wells for our customers, including integrated oil companies, state-owned national oil companies and independent oil and gas companies. During 2022, our top five customers by revenue, including related party revenue were subsidiaries of Perfomex, PTTEP, ENI Congo S.A., Vaalco Gabon S.A. and Addax Petroleum S.A.. A dayrate drilling contract generally extends over a period of time covering either the drilling of a single well or group of wells or covering a stated term. Our Total Contract Backlog (excluding backlog from joint venture operations which earns related party revenue) was $929.8 million as of December 31, 2022 and $324.8 million as of December 31, 2021. We currently operate in significant oil-producing geographies throughout the world, including the North Sea, Mexico, West Africa, Middle East and South East Asia. We operate our business with a competitive cost base, driven by a strong and experienced organizational culture and a carefully managed capital structure.

------

From our initial acquisition of rigs in early 2017, we have become one of the world's largest international offshore jack-up drilling contractors by number of jack-up rigs, with an average fleet age among the lowest in the industry. The summary in "Item 4.B. Business Overview" illustrates the development in our fleet since our inception.

**How We Evaluate Our Business**

During the year ended December 31, 2022, we had one operating segment consisting of operations performed under our dayrate model (which includes rig charters and ancillary services), however, prior to 2022, we had an additional operating segment consisting of operations performed under the IWS model. IWS operations were performed by our joint venture entities Opex and Akal. On August 4, 2021, the Company executed a Stock Purchase Agreement for the sale of the Company's 49% interest in each of Opex and Akal (see Note 7 - Equity Method Investments of our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included herein), representing the Company's disposal of the IWS operating segment.

We evaluate our business based on a number of operational and financial measures that we believe are useful in assessing our historical and expected future performance throughout the commodity-price cycles that have characterized the offshore drilling industry since our inception. These operational and financial measures include the following:

***Operational Measures***

*Total Contract Backlog*

Our Total Contract Backlog includes only firm commitments for contract drilling services represented by definitive agreements.

Total Contract Backlog (in $ millions) is calculated as the maximum contract drilling dayrate revenue that can be earned from a drilling contract based on the contracted operating dayrate. Total Contract Backlog excludes revenue resulting from mobilization and demobilization fees, contract preparation, capital or upgrade reimbursement, recharges, bonuses and other revenue sources and is not adjusted for planned out-of-service periods during the contract period. Total Contract Backlog excludes backlog from joint venture operations which earns related part revenue.

Total Contract Backlog (in contracted rig years) is calculated as our total number of contracted rig years based on firm commitments, which illustrates the time it would take one jack-up rig to perform the obligations under all agreements for all rigs consecutively.

The contract period excludes additional periods that may result from the future exercise of extension options under our contracts, and such extension periods are included only when such options are exercised. The contract operating dayrate may temporarily change due to, among other factors, mobilization, weather or repairs. As used in this annual report, Total Contract Backlog (in $ millions) is not the same measure as the acquired contract backlog presented in our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements.

Our Total Contract Backlog (excluding backlog from joint venture operations which earns related party revenue), expressed in U.S. dollars and in number of years, as of December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, were as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Year Ended December 31,** | **Year Ended December 31,** | **Year Ended December 31,** |
| | **2022** | **2021** | **2020** |
| Total Contract Backlog (in $ millions)<sup>(1)</sup> | $929.8 | $324.8 | $132.1 |
| Total Contract Backlog (in contracted rig years)<sup>(1)</sup> | 24 | 12 | 3.9 |

---

<sup>(1)</sup> The table assumes no exercise of extension options or renegotiations under our current contracts.

*Technical Utilization*

Technical Utilization is the efficiency with which we perform well operations without stoppage due to mechanical, procedural or other operational events that result in down, or zero, revenue time. Technical Utilization is calculated as the technical utilization of each rig in operation for the period, divided by the number of rigs in operation for the period, with the technical utilization for each rig calculated as the total number of hours during which such rig generated dayrate revenue, divided by the maximum number of hours during which such rig could have generated dayrate revenue, expressed as a percentage measured for the period. Technical Utilization is calculated only with respect to rigs in operation for the relevant period and is not calculated on a fleet-wide basis. Technical Utilization is a measure of efficiency of rigs in operation and is not a measurement of utilization of our fleet overall.

------

*Economic Utilization*

Economic Utilization is the dayrate revenue efficiency of our operational rigs and reflects the proportion of the potential full contractual dayrate that each operating jack-up rig actually earns each day. Economic Utilization is affected by reduced rates for standby time, repair time or other planned out-of-service periods. Economic Utilization is calculated as the economic utilization of each rig in operation for the period, divided by the number of rigs in operation for the period, with the economic utilization of each rig calculated as the total revenue, excluding bonuses, as a proportion of the full operating dayrate multiplied by the number of days on contract in the period. Economic Utilization is calculated only with respect to rigs in operation for the relevant period and is not calculated on a fleet-wide basis. Economic Utilization is a measure of efficiency of rigs in operation and is not a measurement of utilization of our fleet overall.

*Rig Utilization*

Rig Utilization is calculated as the weighted average number of operating rigs divided by the weighted average number of rigs owned for each period.

*Total Recordable-Incident Frequency (TRIF)*

TRIF is a measure of the rate of recordable workplace injuries. TRIF, as defined by the International Association of Drilling Contractors, is derived by multiplying the number of recordable injuries during the twelve-month period prior to the specified date by 1,000,000 and dividing this value by the total hours worked in that period by the total number of employees. An incident is considered "recordable" if it results in medical treatment over certain defined thresholds (such as receipt of prescription medication or stitches to close a wound) as well as incidents requiring the injured person to spend time away from work.

*Weighted Average Number of Operating Rigs*

Weighted Average Number of Operating Rigs describes the number of jack-up rigs operating, which may be compared to our total available jack-up fleet. We define operating rigs as all of our jack-up rigs that are currently operating on firm commitments for contract drilling services, represented by definitive agreements. This excludes our jack-up rigs which are stacked, undergoing reactivation programs and newbuild rigs under construction. The Weighted Average Number of Operating Rigs is the aggregate number of expected revenue days to be realized during the period from firm commitments for contract drilling services, divided by the number of days in the applicable period.

Our Technical Utilization and Economic Utilization (both excluding joint venture operations), Rig Utilization, TRIF and Weighted Average Number of Operating Rigs for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 were as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Year Ended December 31,** | **Year Ended December 31,** | **Year Ended December 31,** |
| | **2022** | **2021** | **2020** |
| Technical Utilization (in %) | 98.9 | 98.4 | 99.5 |
| Economic Utilization (in %) | 98.1 | 94.8 | 94.0 |
| Rig Utilization (in %) | 72.3 | 53.3 | 48.3 |
| TRIF (number of incidents) | 1.68 | 1.00 | 1.66 |
| Weighted Average Number of Operating Rigs | 15.9 | 11.9 | 12.8 |

---

***Financial Measures***

*Operating Revenues*

Operating revenues includes the gross revenue generated from jack-up rigs operated by us under our drilling contracts, including amortization of mobilization and demobilization revenue and other revenue received from customers.

------

*Adjusted EBITDA*

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 loss attributable to shareholders of Borr Drilling Limited | Net loss adjusted for: gain/(loss) on disposal of jack-up rigs; depreciation of non-current assets; impairment of non-current assets; other non-operating income; income from equity method investments; total financial expenses, net; amortization of deferred mobilization and contract preparation costs; amortization of deferred mobilization and demobilization revenue; and income tax. | 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, removing the impact of unrealized movements and removing the impact of depreciation, financing and tax items. |

---

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA improves the comparability of year-to-year 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.

**Significant Events in 2022 and Recent Developments**

*Equity Offering*

On August 10, 2022, the Company conducted a public equity offering of $274.9 million of its common shares by issuing 76,363,071 shares, in two settlements, at a subscription price of $3.60 per share ("August 2022 Equity Offering"). The proceeds from the August 2022 Equity Offering were used to consummate a refinancing with the Company's lenders under its Syndicated Facility, New Bridge Facility, Hayfin Facility and shipyard delivery financing arrangements with Keppel and PPL ("secured lenders"), and for general corporate purposes. As a result of the offering, the Company's issued share capital was increased to 229,263,598 common shares.

See Note 28 - Equity of our audited Consolidated Financial Statements included herein, for further information.

*Amendments to Financing and Delivery Financing Arrangements*

In October 2022, the Company entered into agreements with its secured lenders to refinance all of its secured debt maturing in 2023 to 2025. As part of these agreements, the Company extended the debt maturity for its shipyard delivery financing arrangement with PPL and maturity of its secured debt facility with Hayfin to 2025; deferred the delivery dates for two of its newbuild rigs to 2025 and agreed on arrangements for the sale of three newbuild rigs the Company previously agreed to purchase from Keppel to an undisclosed third-party; and fully paid the outstanding balance of its Syndicated Senior Secured Credit Facilities and New Bridge Revolving Credit Facility with proceeds from a new $150.0 million bilateral facility fully drawn down provided by DNB Bank ASA, an existing lender in the previous facilities; the Company used a portion of the proceeds from its August 2022 Equity Offering for such repayment.

See Note 21 - Debt of our audited Consolidated Financial Statements included herein, for further information.

------

*Disposal of Jack-up Rigs and Newbuildings*

On October 13, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement to sell the jack-up rig "Gyme" for $120.0 million, pursuant to an undertaking by the Company under its most recent refinancing with PPL Shipyard completed in October 2022. The transaction was concluded on November 15, 2022 and the proceeds from the sale were applied to repay all outstanding amounts owed on the rig, and excess amounts were applied to the capitalized interest for the eight other rigs financed by PPL.

On November 2022, the Company concluded the agreement to sell the three newbuild rigs "Tivar", "Huldra" and "Heidrun" that the Company previously agreed to purchase from Keppel, for $320.0 million, to an undisclosed third-party. The proceeds from the sale were used to pay the delivery installments of the three newbuildings jack-up rigs and further eliminate the associated activation costs that would have applied in the future. The "Tivar" was delivered to the buyer in November 2022, and the "Huldra" and "Heidrun" are scheduled to be delivered to the buyer in May 2023 and July 2023, respectively.

*Completion of Unsecured Convertible Bonds and Secured Bonds Offering*

In January 2023, the Company issued $250.0 million senior unsecured convertible bonds due February 8, 2028 and $150.0 million senior secured bonds due February 9, 2026. The proceeds from these bonds will be used to refinance the outstanding $350.0 million of convertible bonds due May 23, 2023 and for general corporate purposes.

As at the date of this annual report, the Company agreed to exchange with bondholders $21.0 million of the Convertible bonds due in May 2023 for the New Convertible Bonds due in February 2028, and in March 2023, we repaid $177.8 million of our $350 million Convertible bonds due in May 2023 decreasing the outstanding amount from $350 million to $151.2 million.

See Note 21 - Debt and Note 29 - Subsequent Events of our audited Consolidated Financial Statements included herein, for further information.

**Key Components of Our Results of Operations**

See Note 2 - Basis of Preparation and Accounting Policies of our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included herein, for further information on our accounting policies.

*Operating revenues*

We earn revenues primarily by performing the following activities: (i) providing our jack-up rigs, work crews, related equipment and services necessary to operate our jack-up rigs; (ii) providing our jack-up rigs to our Mexican equity method investments (Perfomex and Perfomex II) under bareboat lease contracts, and providing management and services under management agreements to Perfomex and Perfomex II; (iii) delivering our jack-up rigs by mobilizing to and demobilizing from the drill location; and (iv) performing certain pre-operating activities, including rig preparation activities or equipment modifications required for our contracts.

We recognize revenues earned under our drilling contracts based on variable dayrates, which range from a full operating dayrate to lower rates or zero rates for periods when drilling operations are interrupted or restricted, based on the specific activities we perform during the contract. The total transaction price is determined for each individual contract by estimating both fixed and variable consideration expected to be earned over the firm term of the contract and probable liquidated damages. Revenues are recorded based on these blended rates, applied to the actual Economic Utilization of each period. Such dayrate consideration is attributed to the distinct time period to which it relates within the contract term, and therefore, is recognized as we perform the services. We recognize reimbursement revenues and the corresponding costs as we provide the customer-requested goods and services, when such reimbursable costs are incurred while performing drilling operations. Prior to performing drilling operations, we may receive pre-operating revenues, on either a fixed lump sum or variable dayrate basis, for mobilization, contract preparation, customer-requested goods and services or capital upgrades, which we recognize on a straight-line basis over the estimated firm contract period. We recognize losses related to contracts as such losses are incurred.

------

We may receive fees (on either a fixed lump-sum or variable dayrate basis) for the demobilization of our rigs. Demobilization revenue expected to be received upon contract completion is estimated as part of the overall transaction price at contract inception and recognized over the term of the contract. In most of our contracts, there is uncertainty as to the likelihood and amount of expected demobilization revenue to be received as the amount may vary dependent upon whether or not the rig has additional contracted work following the contract. Therefore, the estimate for such revenue may be constrained, depending on the facts and circumstances pertaining to the specific contract. We assess the likelihood of receiving such revenue based on past experience and knowledge of the market conditions.

We provide corporate support services, secondment of personnel and management services to our equity method investments under management and service agreements. The services are based on costs incurred in the period with appropriate margins and have been recognized under Related party revenue with associated costs included within Rig operating and maintenance expenses in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

We lease rigs on bareboat charters to our equity method investments, Perfomex and Perfomex II. We expect lease revenue earned under the bareboat charters to be variable over the lease term, as a result of the contractual arrangement which assigns the bareboat a value over the lease term equivalent to residual cash after payments of operating expenses and other fees. We, as a lessor, do not recognize a lease asset or liability on our balance sheets at the time of the formation of the entities nor as a result of the lease. Revenue is recognized when management are able to reasonably predict the expected underlying bareboat rate over the contract term.

*Gains or losses on disposals*

From time to time we may sell, or otherwise dispose of, our jack-up rigs and/or other fixed assets to external parties or related parties. In addition, assets, including certain jack-up rigs, may be classified as "held for sale" on our balance sheets when, among other things, we are committed to a plan to sell such assets and consider a sale probable within twelve months. We may recognize a gain or loss on any such disposal depending on whether the fair value of the consideration received is higher or lower than the carrying value of the asset.

*Operating expenses*

Our operating expenses primarily include jack-up rig operating and maintenance expenses, depreciation and impairment, general and administrative expenses.

Rig operating and maintenance expenses are the costs associated with owning a jack-up rig that may from time to time be either in operation or stacked, including:

• *Rig personnel expenses:* compensation, transportation, training, as well as catering costs while the crews are on the jack-up rig. Such expenses vary from country to country and reflect the combination of expatriates and nationals, local market rates, unionized trade arrangements, local law requirements regarding social security, payroll charges and end of service benefit payments.

• *Rig maintenance expenses:* expenses related to maintaining our jack-up rigs in operation, including the associated freight and customs duties, which are not capitalized nor deferred. Such expenses do not directly extend the rig life or increase the functionality of the rig.

• *Other rig-related expenses:* all remaining operating expenses such as supplies, insurance costs, professional services, equipment rental, other miscellaneous costs and new provisions and recoveries of previous provisions for expected credit losses.

Depreciation costs are based on the historical cost of our jack-up rigs, less impairment charges. Rigs are recorded at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Jack-up rigs and related equipment acquired as part of asset acquisitions are stated at fair market value as of the date of the acquisition. The cost of these assets, less estimated salvage values, are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated remaining economic useful lives. The estimated economic useful life of our jack-up rigs, when new, is 30 years and jack up rig equipment and machinery three to 20 years. We evaluate the carrying value of our jack-up rigs on a quarterly basis to identify events or changes in circumstances that indicate that the carrying value of such jack-up rigs may not be recoverable. If the carrying value of the asset is not recoverable, an impairment loss is recognized as the difference between the carrying value of the asset and its fair value. Costs related to periodic surveys are capitalized as part of drilling units and amortized over the anticipated period covered by the survey which is up to five years. These costs are primarily shipyard

------

costs and the costs related to employees directly involved in the work. Amortization costs for periodic surveys are included in depreciation expense.

Our general and administrative expenses primarily include all office personnel costs and other miscellaneous expenses incurred by the operational headquarters of Borr Drilling Management UK in the UK as well as share-based compensation expenses, fees payable to certain Related Parties under a management agreement for providing business, organizational, strategic, financial and other advisory services.

**Material Factors Affecting Results of Operations and Future Results**

Our results of operations have a number of key components and are primarily affected by the number of jack-up rigs under contract, the contractual dayrates we earn and the associated operating and maintenance expenses. Our future results may not be comparable to our historical results of operations for the periods presented. In addition, when evaluating our historical results of operations and assessing our prospects in the periods under review, you should consider the following factors:

*Acquisitions and Disposals*

Since our inception in 2016, we have acquired more than 50 jack-up rigs through both the purchase of existing jack-up rigs, companies owning jack-up rigs and contracts for newbuild jack-up rigs, of which we have sold 30 and one semi-submersible. This increase in jack-up rigs and related expansion of operations resulting from an increased number of jack-up rigs under contract has had a significant impact on our results of operations and our balance sheets during the periods presented in our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included herein. The key characteristics of our rigs owned but not under contract which may yield differences in their marketability or readiness for use, include whether such rigs are warm stacked or cold stacked, the age of the rig, the geographic location and the technical specifications; please see our fleet status report in "Item 4.B. Business Overview—Our Business—Our Fleet" for further information regarding these features by rig. For more information on our acquisitions and disposals, please see the section entitled "Item 4.B. Business Overview—Our History".

The table below sets forth information relating to our acquisitions and disposals since our formation:

<sup>(2)</sup> NB denotes Newbuilding

<sup>(3)</sup> Jack-up rigs "Under Contract" include those rigs which are operating or being prepared or mobilized, or are otherwise awaiting the commencement of drilling operations under the relevant contract.

------

*Recent and Future Acquisitions and Disposals*

We are contracted to take delivery of the remaining two newbuild jack-up rigs not yet delivered in 2025. Keppel has the right to sell these newbuilding contracts to a new buyer if they receive a bone fide offer, which we can either match if the offer is lower than our contractual obligation to Keppel, or if the offer is higher than our contractual obligation to Keppel, we need to confirm we stand by the intention to retain the contracts and complete the delivery. We have made and may consider in the future disposals of jack-up rigs. Acquisitions or disposals of our jack-up rigs are likely to impact our revenue as well as our operating and maintenance expenses. For details of acquisitions or disposals see "Item 4.B. Business Overview—Our History—Divestments".

*Other Factors Affecting Results of Operations* 

In addition to the factors identified above, you should consider the following facts when evaluating our results of operations for the periods presented:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Revenues*: Our revenues are primarily affected by the number of jack-up rigs under contract from time to time and the dayrates we are able to charge our customers, which vary from time to time. To a significant extent, the dayrates we charge our customers depend on the market cycle of the jack-up drilling market at a given point in time. Historically, when oil prices decrease, capital spending and drilling activity decline, which leads to an oversupply of drilling rigs and reduced dayrates. Conversely, higher oil prices, increased capital spending and drilling activity and limited supply of drilling rigs have historically led to higher dayrates. In addition, the number of jack-up rigs under contract from time to time is affected by, among other factors, our relationships with new and existing customers and suppliers, which have grown substantially since our inception in 2016. Our revenues may also be affected by other situations, including when our jack-up rigs cease operations due to technical failures and other situations where we do not collect revenue from our customers. Our ability to keep our jack-up rigs operational when under contract is monitored by our Board and management as Technical Utilization statistics.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Nature of Our Operating and General and Administrative Expenses*: Our operating expenses in 2022 and 2021 reflect expenses relating to operating and non-operating rigs (e.g. costs relating to warm stacking of rigs). To the extent that the offshore drilling market fully recovers, we expect the nature of our operating expenses will shift to include primarily expenses related to the ongoing operation of our jack-up rigs. In such case, our operating expenses will depend on various factors, including expenses related to operating our jack-up rigs, maintenance projects, downtime, weather and other operating factors. In addition, we have incurred and expect to incur direct, incremental general and administrative expenses as a result of our being a publicly traded company in the United States and Norway, including costs associated with hiring personnel for positions created as a result of our U.S. and Norway public company status, publishing annual and interim reports to shareholders consistent with SEC, NYSE and Oslo Børs requirements, expenses relating to compliance with the rules and regulations of the SEC, listing standards of the NYSE and the costs of independent director compensation as well as professional and legal fees incurred in the ordinary course of business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Financing Arrangements and Investments in Securities*: The financial income and expenses reflected in our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included herein may not be indicative of our future financial income and expenses and may, along with other line items related to our Financing Arrangements and historical financing arrangements detailed in the section entitled "Item 5.B. Liquidity and Capital Resources—Our Existing Indebtedness," change as the number of our jack-up rigs under contract increases. As we take delivery of the newbuild rigs we have agreed to purchase, we expect to finance a portion of the purchase price and thus our debt levels and finance expense will increase. The financing arrangements we have had in place historically may not be representative of the agreements that will be in place in the future or that we had in place during our first years of operations. For example, we have amended our Financing Arrangements in the past, including in 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022, and we may amend our existing Financing Arrangements or enter into new financing arrangements and such new agreements may not be on the same terms as our current Financing Arrangements. In addition, from time to time, we may make and hold investments in other companies in our industry that own/operate offshore drilling rigs with similar characteristics to our fleet of jack-up rigs, subject to compliance with the covenants contained in certain of our Financing Arrangements which restrict such investments. We also may purchase and hold debt or other securities issued by other companies in the offshore drilling industry from time to time. The impact of these financial investments will impact our results of operations.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Interest Rates and Derivative Values*: A significant portion of our debt bears floating interest rates. For example, the interest rates under certain of our Financing Arrangements are determined with reference to LIBOR and SOFR plus a specified margin. On March 5, 2021 the ICE Benchmark, which administers LIBOR, and the FCA announced the phase out of LIBOR. As a result we may have to renegotiate our delivery financing arrangements in place with Keppel to reflect the phase out of LIBOR and substitute for other replacement benchmarks. Given the inherent differences between LIBOR and any other alternative benchmark rate that may be established, there are many uncertainties regarding a transition from LIBOR. At this time, it is not possible to predict the effect that these developments, discontinuance of LIBOR, modification or other reforms to any other reference rate, or the establishment of alternative reference rates may have, or other benchmarks. Furthermore, the shift to alternative reference rates or other reforms is complex and could cause the payments calculated for the LIBOR-based debt and derivative instruments to be materially different than expected, which may affect our business, financial condition and results of operation. Although we do not expect a material impact on our LIBOR based debt, we cannot guarantee that the shift to an alternative reference rate will not have any impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Income Taxes*: Income tax expense reflects current tax and deferred taxes related to the operation of our jack-up rigs and may vary significantly depending on the jurisdiction(s) of operation of our subsidiaries, the underlying contractual arrangements and ownership structure and other factors. In most cases, the calculation of tax is based on net income or deemed income in the jurisdiction(s) where our subsidiaries operate. As we transition our focus to the operation of our jack-up rigs, our income tax expense will be primarily affected by the number of jack-up rigs under contract from time to time and the dayrates we are able to charge our customers as well as the expenses we incur which can vary from time to time. Because taxes are impacted by taxable income of our subsidiaries, our tax expense may not be correlated with our income on a consolidated basis.

*Operating Revenues*

Total operating revenues increase by $198.5 million to $443.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $245.3 million in 2021. This was principally due to the following increases:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $98.6 million increase due to an increase in operating days primarily in relation to jack-up rigs "Ran", "Gerd", "Groa", "Arabia I", "Arabia II" and "Thor" as these rigs were warm stacked in 2021 and operational in 2022;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $72.1 million increase primarily due to an increase in operating days in relation to jack-up rigs "Norve", "Idun", "Mist", "Skald" and "Natt" during 2022 compared to 2021; and

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $45.6 million increase in related party revenues primarily as a result of improved profitability of jack-up rigs "Galar", "Grid", "Njord", "Gersemi" and "Odin", that we lease to our joint ventures, Perfomex and Perfomex II, on a bareboat charter basis.

These increases were offset by a decrease of $19.8 million in relation to a decrease in operating days primarily in relation to jack-up rig "Prospector 5".

*Gain on Disposals*

Gain on disposals was $4.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $1.2 million in 2021. In 2022 we recognized a gain on disposal of $3.7 million in relation to the agreement to sell the three newbuildings "Tivar", "Huldra" and "Heidrun" and a gain on disposal of $0.7 million in relation to the sale of rig related equipment, offset by a $0.2 million loss on the sale of jack-up rig "Gyme". In 2021 we recognized a gain on disposal of $1.3 million in relation to the sale of rig related equipment, offset by a $0.1 million loss on the sale of jack-up rig "Balder".

*Total Operating Expenses*

Operating expenses include the following items:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **For the Year Ended December 31,** | **For the Year Ended December 31,** |
| *(in $ millions)* | **2022** | **2021** |
| Rig operating and maintenance expenses | 264.9 | 180.5 |
| Depreciation of non-current assets | 116.5 | 119.6 |
| Impairment of non-current assets | 131.7 |  |
| General and administrative expenses | 36.8 | 34.7 |
| **Total operating expenses** | **549.9** | **334.8** |

---

Total operating expenses increased by $215.1 million to $549.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $334.8 million in 2021.

Rig operating and maintenance expenses increased by $84.4 million to $264.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $180.5 million for 2021. This was principally due to the following increases:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $61.0 million increase due to an increase in operating days primarily in relation to jack-up rigs "Ran", "Gerd", "Groa", "Arabia I", "Arabia II" and "Thor" as these rigs were warm stacked in 2021 and operational in 2022; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $34.9 million increase primarily due to an increase in operating days in relation to jack-up rigs "Norve", "Idun", "Mist", "Skald" and "Natt" during 2022 compared to 2021.

These increases were offset by the following decreases:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $8.4 million decrease primarily as a result of Perfomex and Perfomex II directly hiring personnel starting in the quarter ended September 30, 2021, whereas before this time, the costs of all expat and certain local personnel were borne by the Company and re-charged to the joint ventures with a fixed mark-up;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $1.7 million decrease in relation to amortization of deferred mobilization and contract preparation costs; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $2.0 million decrease due to a decrease in operating days primarily in relation to jack-up rig "Prospector 5".

Depreciation of non-current assets decreased by $3.1 million to $116.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $119.6 million for 2021. This was principally due to a decrease by $1.8 million in relation to the jack-up rig "Gyme" which was classified as held for sale during the quarter ended September 30, 2022 and subsequently sold, thereby ceasing depreciation, and a decrease by $3.8 million in relation to the review of useful lives of certain jack-up rigs. These decreases were offset by an increase in depreciation as a result of an increase in depreciable additions of $100.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Impairment of non-current assets increased by $131.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to nil in 2021. In 2022, we recognized an impairment loss of $124.4 million representing the impairment of advance payments and capitalized interest on the newbuilding jack-up rigs "Tivar", "Huldra", and "Heidrun" as well as a $7.3 million impairment loss on the jack-up rig "Gyme", both following an impairment review as a result of the Company entering into agreements to the sell the newbuildings and jack-up rig. The three newbuildings and the jack-up rig were subsequently sold.

------

General and administrative expenses increased by $2.1 million to $36.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $34.7 million in 2021. This was principally due to an increase by $2.3 million in relation to costs associated with the issuance of share options and performance stock units to certain employees and their associated respective taxes.

*Other non-operating income*

Other non-operating income decreased by $1.6 million to $2.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $3.6 million in 2021. In 2022, we recognized $2.0 million in relation to an amendment to a historical agreement to recycle one of our jack-up rigs. In 2021, we recognized $3.6 million in relation to the gain on sale of the Company's 49% interest in each of the Opex and Akal joint ventures which were disposed of on August 4, 2021.

*Income from Equity Method Investments*

Income from equity method investments decreased by $14.9 million to $1.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $16.1 million for 2021. This was principally due to a decrease by $13.1 million in equity income from the Opex and Akal joint ventures ("IWS JVs"). On August 4, 2021, the Company sold its 49% interest in each of the IWS JV's and as such, no equity income from the IWS JVs was recognized during the year ended December 31, 2022.

*Total Financial Expenses, net*

Total financial expenses, net, include the following items:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **For the Year Ended December 31,** | **For the Year Ended December 31,** |
| *(in $ millions)* | **2022** | **2021** |
| Interest income | (5.4) |  |
| Interest expenses, net of amounts capitalized | 131.3 | 92.9 |
| Other financial expenses, net | 49.8 | 21.8 |
| **Total financial expenses, net** | **175.7** | **114.7** |

---

Total financial expenses, net increased by $61.0 million to $175.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $114.7 million for 2021.

Interest income increased by $5.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to nil in 2021. This was principally due to an increase by $1.3 million from interest income on term deposits and increase by $4.1 million from interest income from our joint ventures.

Interest expenses, net of amounts capitalized, increased by $38.4 million to $131.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $92.9 million for 2021. This was principally due to a $32.5 million increase due to the amendments made to our various financing facilities in January 2021 and October 2022 and a $7.8 million loss on debt extinguishment associated with the refinancing of the Hayfin Debt Facility (extinguishment accounting treatment) and the repayment of the Syndicated Senior Secured Credit Facilities and New Bridge Facility, of which DNB Bank was one of the lenders of the syndicate. These increases were offset by a $1.9 million gain on extinguishment of the debt associated with the jack-up rig "Gyme".

Other financial expenses, net, increased by $28.0 million to $49.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $21.8 million in 2021. This was principally due to the following increases:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $15.4 million net increase in yard cost cover expenses as a result of contractual ramp up in cost cover for "Vale" and "Var" offset partially by the decrease in cost cover in relation to the disposal of "Tivar" during the quarter ended December 31, 2022;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $8.5 million increase in bank commitment, guarantee and other fees primarily due to fees in relation to the refinancing of debt;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $4.6 million increase in other financial expenses primarily due to $2.0 million financial income in 2021 in relation to the sale of rights from a legal claim to a third-party and $2.8 million reversal of provision for legacy legal claims in 2021 which have no comparable credits in 2022; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $1.4 million increase in amortization of deferred finance charges primarily due to finance charges incurred in relation to the refinancing of debt.

------

These increases were offset by $1.9 million decrease in foreign exchange losses.

*Income Tax Expense*

Income tax expense increased by $8.7 million to $18.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $9.7 million for 2021. This is principally due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $5.5 million increase due to higher bareboat revenues in Mexico;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $2.8 million increase due to increased activities in Thailand and Malaysia and new operations in Brunei; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $1.1 million increase due to new operations in Saudi Arabia and Qatar.

These increases were offset by $0.7 million decrease due to India tax refund and reversal of Dutch tax provision in 2022.

**Year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the year ended December 31, 2020**

For a discussion of our results for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the year ended December 31, 2020, please see "Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects A. Operating Results – Year ended December 31, 2021, compared to the year ended December 31, 2020" contained in our annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC on April 11, 2022.

**B.LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES**

*Short-Term Liquidity and Cash Requirements*

Historically, we have met our liquidity needs principally from proceeds from equity offerings and our convertible bonds, availability under our Financing Arrangements, including the shipyard delivery Financing Arrangements related to our newbuild rigs, cash generated from operations, and sale of non-core assets.

Our funding and treasury activities are conducted within our established corporate policies and are intended to maximize investment returns in light of our liquidity requirements. Cash and cash equivalents are held primarily in U.S. dollars with some balances held in various currencies such as Malaysian Ringgit, Thai Baht, British Pounds, Saudi-Arabian Riyal, Norwegian Kroner and Euros. We have not made use of derivative instruments.

Our primary uses of cash during the year ended December 31, 2022 were operating expenses, investing activities including capital expenditures mainly related to activations and re-activations of jack-up rigs, and interest payments. Capital expenditures related to contract preparation, purchase and refurbishment of rig equipment, and other investments are highly dependent on how many jack-up rigs we activate or re-activate, which is in turn dependent on the number of contracts we are able to secure. We funded our 2022 capital expenditures and deferred costs using available cash and cash flows from operations, proceeds from our various share issuances (discussed below) and proceeds from debt financings. We expect our funding sources to be similar in 2023, primarily using available cash and cash flows from operations, as well as potential debt and equity financings, although there is no assurance regarding future equity raises or debt financings.

As of December 31, 2022 we had $108.0 million in cash and cash equivalents and $10.5 million in restricted cash. Included within restricted cash is $10.1 million relating to bank deposits which have been pledged as collateral for performance guarantees issued by banks in relation to rig operating contracts.

We are dependent on cash generated by our subsidiaries which are subject to legal and contractual restrictions. See the section entitled "Item 3.D. Risk Factors—Risk Factors related to our business". We are a holding company and are dependent upon cash flows from subsidiaries and equity method investments to meet our obligations. If our operating subsidiaries or equity method investments experience sufficiently adverse changes in their financial condition or results of operations, or we otherwise become unable to arrange further financing to meet our liquidity requirements to satisfy our debt or other obligations as they become due, we may become subject to insolvency proceedings.

As of the date of this report, we have concluded that a substantial doubt exists over our ability to continue as a going concern. Please refer to Note 1 - General of our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included herein.

------

*Equity Offerings*

On December 28, 2021, the Company conducted a private placement of $30.0 million by issuing 13,333,333 new shares (in the form of depository receipts) at a subscription price of $2.25 per share. On January 31, 2022, the equity offering was settled and the Company's issued number of shares increased to 150,551,508 common shares.

On August 10, 2022, the Company conducted a public offering in the U.S., raising gross proceeds of $274.9 million and net proceeds of $260.4 million by issuing 76,363,071 shares at a subscription price of $3.60 per share.

In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2022, we sold and issued 2,350,000 shares under our ATM program, raising gross proceeds of $8.9 million and net proceeds of $8.8 million, with compensation paid by the Company to Clarksons Securities of $0.1 million.

Following the December 2021 private placement, the August 2022 public offering in the U.S. and issuance of shares under our ATM program, the Company's issued number of shares increased to 229,263,598, as of September 30, 2022.

For details of the Company's equity offerings for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, see Note 28 - Equity of our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included herein.

*Long-Term Liquidity and Cash Requirements*

Our long-term liquidity and cash requirements are primarily for funding our activation projects, repaying our debt and interest obligations as well as cash requirements in relation to taking delivery of rigs under construction. Sources of funding for our long-term requirements include cash from operations, refinancing of our existing financing arrangements, delivery financing from shipyards and equity offerings. See Note 1 - General of our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included herein for our going concern assessment.

*Capital Expenditures Commitments*

Our primary commitments for capital expenditures relate to the commitments relating our newbuild jack-up drilling rigs from Keppel.

We acquired five newbuildings in connection with the Transocean Transaction. As of December 31, 2022 two rigs have been delivered ("Saga", "Skald") in 2018, one was sold ("Tivar") in 2022 and two remain under construction ("Vale" and "Var"). We may exercise an option to accept delivery financing from Keppel with respect to "Vale" and "Var" of $130.0 million for each rig, subject to certain conditions. In June 2020, we agreed to defer the delivery for these two rigs to the third quarter of 2022. In January 2021, we agreed to further defer delivery dates to the third quarter of 2023 and in October 2022, we agreed to defer delivery to the third quarter of 2025. The remaining contracted installments for these two rigs under construction, payable on delivery are approximately $294.8 million as of December 31, 2022 ($448.2 million as of December 31, 2021), of which Keppel has committed to finance $130 million for each rig, with a four-year maturity, with repayments beginning on the third year of the loan until maturity.

In addition, as of December 31, 2022, we estimate our capital expenditures in the next twelve months relating to upcoming contracts and rig activations is approximately $59.7 million. This is based on known contracts as at December 31, 2022, in addition to potential rig activations for which management believes favorable contracting opportunities exist.

*Contractual Obligations*

We had no off-balance sheet arrangements as of December 31, 2022, other than commitments in the ordinary course of business that we are contractually obligated to fulfill with cash under certain circumstances. These commitments include guarantees towards third parties such as performance guarantees to customers as they relate to our drilling contracts. Obligations under these guarantees are not normally called, as we typically comply with the underlying performance requirement, however, we have made collateral deposits with respect to these agreements and recognized $10.1 million as restricted cash as at December 31, 2022.

Included within net cash used in operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2022, are interest payments of $83.9 million, net of capitalized interest and income tax refunds of $16.2 million; compared with interest payments, net of capitalized interest of $57.2 million and income tax payments of $0.8 million used in operations during the year ended December 31, 2021.

*Net cash (used in)/provided by investing activities*

Net cash used in investing activities of $82.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 is comprised of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $81.5 million in additions to jack-up rigs primarily as a result of activation and reactivations, of which $25.0 million pertains to the jack-up rig "Arabia I", $24.8 million pertains to "Arabia II" and $15.5 million pertains to "Thor"; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $1.8 million in purchases of property, plant and equipment.

This was partially offset by $0.7 million proceeds from the sale of rig related equipment.

Net cash provided by investing activities of $40.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 is comprised of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $46.5 million in net distributions from our equity method investments as a result of the return of previous shareholder funding;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $10.6 million proceeds from the sale of our previous equity method investments, Opex and Akal;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $1.4 million proceeds from the sale of jack-up rig "Balder"; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $1.3 million proceeds from the sale of rig related equipment.

This was partially offset by $18.8 million in additions to jack-up rigs primarily as a result of activation costs and $0.1 million in additions to property, plant and equipment.

*Net cash provided by financing activities*

Net cash provided by financing activities of $92.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 is comprised of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $260.4 million proceeds, net of transactions costs from our August 2022 Equity Offering;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $28.9 million proceeds, net of transaction costs from our equity offering which closed in January 2022;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $8.8 million proceeds, net of transaction costs from the sale of shares under our ATM program; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $150.0 million proceeds from our New DNB Facility.

This was partially offset by the repayment of debt of $355.5 million of which $280.0 million was used to repay in full the Syndicated Facility, $30.5 million was used to repay in full the New Bridge Facility and $45.0 million was used to make a partial repayment on the Hayfin Facility.

Net cash provided by financing activities of $44.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 is a result of the proceeds, net of transaction costs, from the January 2021 equity offering.

------

**Our Existing Indebtedness** 

As of December 31, 2022, we had total outstanding borrowings, gross of capitalized borrowing costs, back-end fees and effective interest rate adjustments, of $1.6 billion, secured by, among other things, our rigs.

Our loan financing agreements as at December 31, 2022, include our PPL Newbuild Financing and Keppel Newbuild Financing Agreements, which were entered into in 2017 and 2018, respectively, our Hayfin Facility agreement entered into in June 2019, our New DNB Facility of $150 million which was entered into in October 2022, as well as and the $350 million Convertible Bonds due May 2023.

In October 2022, the Company entered into agreements with its secured creditors to refinance and extend all of its secured debt maturing in 2023 into 2025. As part of these agreements, the Company extended the debt maturity for its shipyard delivery financing arrangement with PPL and maturity of its secured debt facility with Hayfin to 2025; deferred its obligations to make payments to purchase the undelivered rigs from Keppel to fall due in July 2025 ("Vale") and September 2025 ("Var"); and agreed to sell three newbuild rigs the Company previously agreed to purchase from Keppel to an undisclosed third-party. The Company has also agreed to make debt repayments in 2023 ($100 million in total) and 2024 ($114 million in total), excluding the repayment of our $350 million convertible bond due in May 2023. Additionally, we entered into a $150.0 million New DNB Facility, the proceeds of which, together with the August 2022 equity raise, were used to repay the Syndicated Facility and New Bridge Facility in October 2022.

In February 2023, we raised $250.0 million gross proceeds through the issuance of the New Convertible Bonds, due in February 2028 and $150.0 million gross proceeds through the issuance of the Senior Secured Bonds, due in February 2026. The New Convertible Bonds are convertible into common shares with a conversion price of $7.3741 per share and bears interest at 5.00% per annum payable semi-annually. Our Senior Secured Bonds bear interest at 9.5% per annum, payable semi-annually. The proceeds for these financings will be applied to repay our $350 million Convertible bonds due May 2023 and for general corporate purposes. Following these transactions, all our debt matures in 2025 or later.

As of December 31, 2022, we were in compliance with all our covenants under our various loan agreements. See Note 21 - Debt and Note 29 - Subsequent Events of our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included herein for additional information on our borrowings as of December 31, 2022.

**D.TREND INFORMATION**

*Offshore Drilling Market*

Energy commodity prices have decreased since June 2022, when the price for Brent crude oil reached approximately $120 per barrel, and has recently reached approximately $70 as of March 20, 2023. However, these lower prices coupled with the global turbulent macroeconomic environment have not affected global demand for offshore drilling services, including jack-up rigs, which remains strong.

As a result of increased capital spending by our clients, demand for contract drilling services has continued improving since 2021. Consequently, the offshore drilling industry has seen contracting activity and dayrates increase in 2022 and continue to do so into 2023. Many new contracts have been for longer durations, as customers aim to lock up jack-up rigs for longer term projects. In addition, demand for offshore drilling services appears to continue to be supported by geopolitical events, such as Russia's military actions across Ukraine, the related economic sanctions imposed by various governments and a renewed interest in energy security across Europe, the United States and other countries. Despite positive industry trends we have recently experienced, we remain subject to risks relating to the volatility of our industry and the risk that demand and day rates could decline, including as a result of inflation impacting many major economies and global economic uncertainty.

With a global competitive jack-up rig utilization of approximately 92% in March 2023 based on industry reports (such as IHS Markit), which represents an increase of approximately 8% from December 31, 2021, we remain optimistic that recent positive trends will continue and that the offshore drilling market will continue to improve in the foreseeable future, predicated on continued strength in the demand for hydrocarbons. As of March 23, 2023, there are 291 modern jack-ups contracted, representing an increase of approximately 54 units as compared to recent lows in late 2020 and during the same period, the

------

number of standard jack-ups contracted has shrunk by approximately seven units, confirming our view of a continued market bifurcation and operators' preference for modern rigs.

Although demand is expected to continue improving and consequently the number of contracted rigs to increase, growth in rig supply is anticipated to be restrained. Currently, there are approximately 20 newbuild rigs under construction of which two are already contracted and two are owner-operated, leaving a total of 16 available (including "Vale" and "Var" which we have agreed to acquire). We anticipate that few of these rigs under construction will be able to enter the marketed fleet in the near future due to several being in early stages of completion and due to increasing supply chain pressures which impact construction. The order book of new rigs as a percentage of the current jack-up fleet has reached a 20-year record low and stands at approximately 4%. No new jack-up rigs have been ordered in the last two years, and industry analysts estimate that the newbuild cost for a high specification jack-up rig is currently around $260 million (Clarksons Research).

We also face risks and trends that could adversely affect our industry and business. Energy rebalancing trends have accelerated in recent years as evidenced by promulgated or proposed government policies and commitments by many of our customers to further invest in sustainable energy sources. Our industry could be further challenged as our customers rebalance their capital investments to include alternative energy sources, as well as respond to the normal cycles that have historically existed in our industry. We also expect inflationary pressures to persist in 2023 as well as continue to experience disruptions in supply chains and distribution channels. Nonetheless, the global energy demand is predicted to increase over the coming decades, and we expect that offshore oil and gas will continue to play an important and sustainable role in meeting this demand for the foreseeable future.

*Financing Arrangements*

We have improved our liquidity through (i) our $274.9 million equity raise in August 2022 and we have agreed with all our secured creditors to refinance and extend all maturities of our secured debt to 2025, and (ii) our $150 million secured bonds due 2026 and our $250 million senior unsecured convertible bonds due 2028 which we issued in the first quarter of 2023 and which will be used in part to repay our convertible bonds due in 2023. However, a significant portion of the August 2022 equity raise was used to repay creditors and a significant portion of such bonds due in 2026 and 2028 will be used to refinance the $350 million of convertible bonds due in 2023. Furthermore, we face maturity of substantially all of our debt in 2025, other than the bonds that are due in 2026 and 2028. Therefore, we continue to face risks relating to liquidity and our upcoming debt maturities and the risk that we may not be able to refinance our debt as it matures.

**E.CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES**

We prepare our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S., which require us to make significant judgements and estimates that are important to our financial position and results of operations. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

We consider the following to be our critical accounting estimates. For a summary of our significant accounting policies, see Note 2 - Basis of Preparation and Accounting Policies of our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included herein.

***Impairment of jack-up rigs***

We continually monitor events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of our jack-up rigs may not be recoverable. At least annually, and additionally if such events or changes in circumstances are present, we assess the recoverability of our jack-up rigs by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted future cash flows.

In assessing the recoverability of our jack-up rigs' carrying amounts, we make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows. If the total of the future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, we recognize an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amounts over their respective fair value. Two critical assumptions, utilization and dayrate revenue, are key assumptions utilized in determining the estimated future cash flows and are highly market dependent. Other assumptions include estimates in respect of residual or scrap values, operating and maintenance expenses and capital expenditures.

The sensitivity analysis has been performed based on changes in utilization and dayrate revenue critical assumptions on the consolidated jack-up rig and newbuild fleet:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 5% decrease to both utilization and dayrate revenue critical assumptions would not result in impairment charges.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 10% decrease to both utilization and dayrate revenue critical assumptions would not result in impairment charges.

See "Item 6.E. Share Ownership" for share compensation paid to executive officers during the year ended December 31, 2022.

**C.BOARD PRACTICES**

The Company is subject to Bermudian law regarding corporate governance. Our Board currently consists of four directors. A director is not required to hold any shares in our company by way of qualification. A director who is in any way, whether directly or indirectly, interested in a contract or proposed contract with our company is required to declare the nature of the interest at a meeting of our directors. Subject to declaring the interest and any further disclosure required by the Companies Acts, a director may vote in respect of any contract, proposed contract, or arrangement notwithstanding that he or she may be interested therein, and if he or she does so, their vote shall be counted and may be counted in the quorum at any meeting of our directors at which any such contract or proposed contract or arrangement is considered. The directors may exercise all of our powers to borrow money, mortgage our undertaking, property and uncalled capital, and issue debentures or other securities whenever money is borrowed or as security for any of our obligations or of any third party.

Our Board is elected annually by a vote of a majority of the common shares represented at the meeting at which at least two shareholders, present in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote (whatever the number of shares held by them) constitutes a quorum. In addition, the maximum and minimum number of directors are determined by a resolution of our shareholders, but no less than two directors shall serve at any given time. Each director shall hold office until the next annual general meeting following his or her election or until his or her successor is elected.

The Directors may be re-elected. Directors stand for re-election at each annual general meeting but there is no limit on the term of office.

------

There are no service contracts between the Company and any member of our Board providing for the accrual of benefits, compensation or otherwise, upon termination of their employment or service.

**Independence of directors**

The NYSE requires that a U.S. listed company maintain a majority of independent directors. As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from certain rules of the NYSE and are permitted to follow home country practice in lieu of the relevant provisions of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, including this NYSE requirement. As permitted under Bermuda law and our bye-laws, two members of our Board, Mrs. Kate Blankenship and Mr. Neil Glass are independent according to the NYSE's standards for independence.

**Board Committees**

We have three board committees, being an audit committee, a nominating and governance committee and a compensation committee.

**Audit committee**

The NYSE requires, among other things, that a listed U.S. company have an audit committee with a minimum of three members, all of whom must be independent. Additionally, at least one member of the audit committee must have accounting or related financial management expertise. As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from certain rules of the NYSE and are permitted to follow home country practice in lieu of the relevant provisions of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, including the requirement to have three members on the audit committee. Consistent with our status as a foreign private issuer and the jurisdiction of our incorporation, our audit committee currently consists of two members, Ms. Kate Blankenship and Mr. Neil Glass, who are both independent and who both qualify as an audit committee financial expert ("ACFE") under U.S. securities laws relating to audit committees. Under our audit committee charter, the audit committee is responsible for overseeing the audits of the Company's financial statements, overseeing the quality and integrity of our external financial reporting, appointment, compensation and oversight of our external auditors, reviewing, evaluating and advising the Board concerning the adequacy of our accounting systems, internal controls, and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements.

**Compensation committee**

The NYSE requires, among other things, that a listed U.S. company have a compensation committee composed entirely of independent directors and a committee charter specifying the purpose, duties and evaluation procedures of the committee. Although as a foreign private issuer we are exempt from such rules and permitted to follow home country practice, we have established a compensation committee currently consisting of Ms. Kate Blankenship, who is an independent director according to NYSE's standards for independence. The compensation committee is responsible for establishing general compensation guidelines and policies for executive employees. The compensation committee determines the compensation and other terms of employment for executive employees (including salary, bonus, equity participation, benefits and severance terms) and reviews, from time to time, our compensation strategy and compensation levels in order to ensure we are able to attract, retain and motivate executives and other employees. The compensation committee is also responsible for approving any equity incentive plans or arrangements and any guidelines or policies for the grant of equity incentives thereunder to our employees. It oversees and periodically reviews all annual bonuses, long-term incentive plans, stock options, employee pension and welfare benefit plans and also reviews and makes recommendations to the Board regarding the compensation of directors for their services to the Board.

**Nominating and governance committee**

The NYSE requires, among other things, that a listed U.S. company have a nominating and corporate governance committee of independent directors and a committee charter specifying the purpose, duties and evaluation procedures of the committee. Although as a foreign private issuer we are exempt from such rules and permitted to follow home country practice, we have established a nominating and corporate governance committee consisting of Mr. Neil Glass who is an independent director according to the NYSE's standards for independence. The nominating and governance committee is appointed by the Board to assist the Board in (i) identifying individuals qualified to become members of the Board, consistent with criteria approved by the Board, (ii) recommending to the Board the director nominees to stand for election at the next general meeting of shareholders, (iii) developing and recommending to the Board a set of corporate governance principles applicable to our directors and employees, (iv) recommending committee structure, operations and reporting obligations to the Board, (v) recommending committee assignments for directors to the Board and (vi) overseeing an annual review of Board performance.

------

**Executive sessions**

The NYSE requires that non-management directors meet regularly in executive sessions without management. The NYSE also requires that, if such executive sessions include any non-management directors who are not independent, all independent directors also meet in an executive session at least once a year. All of our directors are non-management and regularly hold executive sessions without management and our independent directors hold executive sessions when deemed appropriate.

**D.EMPLOYEES**

**Employees**

The table below presents our employees and contractors by function:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **As at December 31,** | **As at December 31,** | **As at December 31,** |
| | **2022** | **2021** | **2020** |
| Rig Based | 2236 | 1731 | 1190 |
| Shore Based | 268 | 195 | 155 |
| **Total** | **2504** | **1926** | **1345** |
| Company Employees | 1504 | 517 | 418 |
| Contractors | 1000 | 1409 | 927 |
| **Total** | **2504** | **1926** | **1345** |

---

These employees and contractors have extensive technical, operational and management experience in the jack-up segment of the shallow-water offshore drilling industry. The increase in the number of employees and contractors in the year ended December 31, 2022 is primarily a result of increased operations in Mexico, Asia and the Middle East regions, which supported the re-activations of warm stacked rigs and the activations of some of our newbuilds. The increase in the split between employees and contractors is due to a shift in our employment strategy to directly hire employees in Mexico.

Some of our employees and our contracted labor are represented by collective bargaining agreements. As part of the legal obligations in some of these agreements, we are required to contribute certain amounts to retirement funds and pension plans and have restricted ability to dismiss employees. In addition, many of these represented individuals are working under agreements that are subject to salary negotiation. These negotiations could result in higher personnel costs, other increased costs or increased operating restrictions that could adversely affect our financial performance. We consider our relationships with the various unions as stable, productive and professional.

The table below presents our employees and contractors by function as of December 31, 2022:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Company Employees** | **Contractors** | **Total** |
| Rig-based | 1277 | 959 | 2236 |
| Shore-based | 227 | 41 | 268 |
| **Total** | **1504** | **1000** | **2504** |

---

We seek to employ national employees and contractors wherever possible in the markets in which our rigs operate. This enables us to strengthen customer and governmental relationships, particularly with NOCs, and results in a more competitive cost base as well as relatively lower employee turnover.

**E.SHARE OWNERSHIP**

The following table sets forth information as of March 23, 2023 with respect to the beneficial ownership of our common shares, share options and restricted share units ("RSUs") by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• each of our directors and executive officers; and

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• all of our directors and executive officers as a group

The calculations in the table below are based on 228,948,087 common shares outstanding as of March 23, 2023. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, we have included shares that the person has the right to acquire within 60 days, including through the exercise of any option, warrant or other right or the conversion of any other security. These shares, however, are not included in the computation of the percentage ownership of any other person.

<sup>(3)</sup> In addition to the shares owned and share options granted, Patrick Schorn was awarded 500,000 performance stock units. Please see below for additional disclosures.

**Long-term Incentive Program**

We have adopted a long-term incentive plan and have authorized the issuance of up to 10,897,000 options pursuant to awards under our long-term incentive program, of which 1,227,000 options remain unallocated for further awards and recruitments. Any person who is contracted to work at least 20 hours per week in our service, the members of our Board and any person who is a member of the board of any of our subsidiaries are eligible to participate in our long-term incentive plan. The purpose of our long-term incentive program is to align the long-term financial interests of our employees and directors with those of our shareholders, to attract and retain those individuals by providing compensation opportunities that are competitive with other companies, and to provide incentives to those individuals who contribute significantly to our long-term performance and growth. To accomplish this, our long-term incentive plan permits the issuance of our shares.

The long-term incentive plan is based on the granting of options to subscribe to new securities. Such options are typically granted with a term of five years. The Board has the authority to set the subscription price, vesting periods and the terms of the options. No consideration is paid by the recipients for the options. When an individual ceases to be eligible to retain options, for example by leaving the group, unvested options lapse. Vested options must, under the same circumstances, be exercised within a certain period after the termination date. For further details on share options please refer to Note 24 - Share Based Compensation of our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included herein.

DNB Banks ASA announced on June 17, 2022 it had acquired and sold the 8,058,824 shares under a forward contract with Kistefos AS with expected delivery under the forward contract on December 16, 2022. On December 16, 2022, Kistefos AS announced it had the extended forward contracts for a total of 10,725,490 shares with the contracts expiring on June 16, 2023. The notification additionally stated that Kistefos AS and related parties owned approximately 11,779,705 shares in the Company. Further on January 20, 2023 Kistefos AS announced it had sold 15,000 shares in the Company; therefore as of March 23, 2023, we believe Kistefos AS and related parties own 11,764,705 shares in the Company.

To our knowledge, as of March 23, 2023, a total of 228,948,087 shares are held by 2 record holders in the United States, including Cede & Co., as nominee for the Depository Trust Company, which indirectly holds our shares on the NYSE and Oslo Børs.

We are not aware of any arrangement that may, at a subsequent date, result in a change of control of our company. See the section entitled "Item 10.B. Our Memorandum of Association and Bye-Laws" for historical changes in our shareholding structure.

**B.MEMORANDUM AND ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION** 

We are an exempted company limited by shares incorporated in Bermuda and our corporate affairs are governed by our Memorandum and Bye-Laws, the Companies Act and the common law of Bermuda.

**Our Memorandum of Association and Bye-Laws**

The Memorandum of Association of the Company has previously been filed as Exhibit 3.1 to the Company's Registration Statement on Form F-1 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 10, 2019, and is hereby incorporated by reference into this Annual Report.

The Bye-Laws of the Company, as amended, are incorporated by reference as Exhibit 1.2 to this annual report.

The following are summaries of material provisions of our Memorandum and Bye-Laws, insofar as they relate to the material terms of our shares.

**Objects of Our Company** 

We were incorporated by registration under the Companies Act. Our business objects, as stated in section Six of our Memorandum of Association, are unrestricted and we have all the powers of a natural person.

**Common Shares Ownership** 

Our Memorandum and Bye-Laws do not impose any limitations on the ownership rights of our shareholders. The Bermuda Monetary Authority has given a general permission for us to issue shares to nonresidents of Bermuda and for the free transferability of our shares among nonresidents of Bermuda, for so long as our shares are listed on an appointed stock exchange. There are no limitations on the right of non-Bermudians or non-residents of Bermuda to hold or vote our common shares.

**Dividends**

As a Bermuda exempted company limited by shares, we are subject to Bermuda law relating to the payment of dividends. We may not pay any dividends if, at the time the dividend is declared or at the time the dividend is paid, there are reasonable grounds for believing that, after giving effect to that payment:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we will not be able to pay our liabilities as they fall due; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the realizable value of our assets is less than our liabilities.

In addition, since we are a holding company with no material assets, and conduct our operations through subsidiaries, our ability to pay any dividends to shareholders will depend on our subsidiaries' distributing to us their earnings and cash flow. Some of our loan agreements currently limit or prohibit our subsidiaries' ability to make distributions to us and our ability to make distributions to our shareholders.

**Voting Rights** 

Holders of common shares are entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of holders of common shares. Unless a different majority is required by law or by our Bye-Laws, resolutions to be approved by holders of common shares require approval by a simple majority of votes cast at a meeting at which a quorum is present.

Majority shareholders do not generally owe any duties to other shareholders to refrain from exercising all of the votes attached to their shares. There are no deadlines in the Companies Act relating to the time when votes must be exercised. However, our Bye-Laws provide that where a shareholder or a person representing a shareholder as a proxy wishes to attend and vote at a meeting of

------

our shareholders, such shareholder or person must give us not less than 48 hours' notice in writing of their intention to attend and vote.

The key powers of our shareholders include the power to alter the terms of our Memorandum and to approve and thereby make effective any alterations to our Bye-Laws made by the directors. Dissenting shareholders holding 20% of our shares may apply to the court to annul or vary an alteration to our Memorandum. A majority vote against an alteration to our Bye-Laws made by the directors will prevent the alteration from becoming effective. Other key powers are to approve the alteration of our capital, including a reduction in share capital, to approve the removal of a director, to resolve that we will be wound up or discontinued from Bermuda to another jurisdiction or to enter into an amalgamation, merger or winding up. Under the Companies Act, all of the foregoing corporate actions require approval by an ordinary resolution (a simple majority of votes cast), except in the case of an amalgamation or merger transaction, which requires approval by 75% of the votes cast, unless our Bye-Laws provide otherwise, which our Bye-Laws do. Our Bye-Laws provide that the Board may, with the sanction of a resolution passed by a simple majority of votes cast at a general meeting with the necessary quorum for such meeting of two persons at least holding or representing 33.33% of our issued shares (or the class of securities, where applicable), amalgamate or merge us with another company. In addition, our Bye-Laws confer express power on the Board to reduce its issued share capital selectively with the authority of an ordinary resolution of the shareholders.

The Companies Act provides that a company shall not be bound to take notice of any trust or other interest in its shares. There is a presumption that all the rights attaching to shares are held by, and are exercisable by, the registered holder, by virtue of being registered as a member of the company. Our relationship is with the registered holder of our shares. If the registered holder of the shares holds the shares for someone else (the beneficial owner), then the beneficial owner is entitled to the shares and may give instructions to the registered holder on how to vote the shares. The Companies Act provides that the registered holder may appoint more than one proxy to attend a shareholder meeting, and consequently where rights to shares are held in a chain the registered holder may appoint the beneficial owner as the registered holder's proxy.

**Meetings of Shareholders**

The Companies Act provides that a company must have a general meeting of its shareholders in each calendar year unless that requirement is waived by resolution of the shareholders. Under our Bye-Laws, annual shareholder meetings will be held in accordance with the Companies Act at a time and place selected by the Board, provided that no such meetings can be held in Norway or the United Kingdom. Special general meetings may be called at any time at the discretion of the Board, provided that no such meetings can be held in Norway or the United Kingdom.

Annual shareholder meetings and special meetings must be called by not less than seven days' prior written notice specifying the place, day and time of the meeting. The Board may fix any date as the record date for determining those shareholders eligible to receive notice of and to vote at the meeting.

The quorum at any annual or general meeting is equal to at least two shareholders, present in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote (whatever the number of shares held by them). The Companies Act specifically imposes special quorum requirements where the shareholders are being asked to approve the modification of rights attaching to a particular class of shares (33.33%) or an amalgamation or merger transaction (33.33%) unless in either case the bye-laws provide otherwise.

The Companies Act provides shareholders holding 10% of a Company's voting shares the ability to request that the Board shall convene a meeting of shareholders to consider any business which the shareholders wish to be discussed by the shareholders including (as noted below) the removal of any director. However, the shareholders are not permitted to pass any resolutions relating to the management of our business affairs unless there is a pre-existing provision in the company's bye-laws which confers such rights on the shareholders. Subject to compliance with the time limits prescribed by the Companies Act, shareholders holding 5% of the voting shares (or alternatively, 100 shareholders) may also require the directors to circulate a written statement not exceeding 1,000 words relating to any resolution or other matter proposed to be put before, or otherwise considered during, the annual general meeting of the company.

**Election, Removal and Remuneration of Directors** 

The Companies Act provides that the directors shall be elected or appointed by the shareholders. A director may be elected by a simple majority vote of shareholders. A person holding more than 50% of the voting shares of the company will be able to elect all of the directors, and to prevent the election of any person whom such shareholder does not wish to be elected. There are no provisions for cumulative voting in the Companies Act or the Bye-Laws. Further, our Bye-Laws do not contain any super-

------

majority voting requirements relating to the appointment or election of directors. The appointment and removal of directors is covered by Bye-Laws 97, 98 and 99.

The Companies Act stipulates that an undischarged bankruptcy of a director (in any country) shall prohibit that director from acting as a director, directly or indirectly, and taking part in or being concerned with the management of a company, except with leave of the court. Bye-Law 100 is more restrictive in that it stipulates that the office of a Director shall be vacated upon the happening of any of the following events:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• If he resigns his office by notice in writing delivered to the registered office or tendered at a meeting of the Board;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• If he becomes of unsound mind or a patient for any purpose of any statute or applicable law relating to mental health and the Board resolves that his office is vacated;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• If he becomes bankrupt or compounds with his creditors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• If he is prohibited by law from being a Director; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• If he ceases to be a Director by virtue of the Companies Act or is removed from office pursuant to the company's bye-laws.

Under our Bye-Laws, the minimum number of directors comprising the Board at any time shall be two. The Board currently consists of four directors. The minimum and maximum number of directors comprising the Board from time to time shall be determined by way of an ordinary resolution of our shareholders. The shareholders may, at the annual general meeting by ordinary resolution, determine that one or more vacancies in the Board be deemed casual vacancies. The Board, so long as a quorum remains in office, shall have the power to fill such casual vacancies. Our directors are not required to retire because of their age, and the directors are not required to be holders of our shares. Directors serve for one year terms, and shall serve until re-elected or until their successors are appointed at the next annual general meeting.

**Director Transactions**

Our Bye-Laws do not prohibit a director from being a party to, or otherwise having an interest in, any transaction or arrangement with our Company or in which our Company is otherwise interested. Our Bye-Laws provide that a director who has an interest in any transaction or arrangement with us and who has complied with the provisions of the Companies Act and with our Bye-Laws with regard to disclosure of such interest shall be taken into account in ascertaining whether a quorum is present, and will be entitled to vote in respect of any transaction or arrangement in which he is so interested.

Bye-Law 111 provides our Board the authority to exercise all of our powers to borrow money and to mortgage or charge all or any part of our property and assets as collateral security for any debt, liability or obligation. However, under the Companies Act, companies may not lend money to a director or to a person connected to a director who is deemed by the Companies Act to be a director (a "Connected Person"), or enter into any guarantee or provide any security in relation to any loan made to a director or a Connected Person without the prior approval of the shareholders of the company holding in aggregate 90% of the total voting rights in the company.

Our Bye-Laws provide that no director, alternate director, officer, person or member of a committee, if any, resident representative, or his heirs, executors or administrators, which we refer to collectively as an indemnitee, is liable for the acts, receipts, neglects or defaults of any other such person or any person involved in our formation, or for any loss or expense incurred by us through the insufficiency or deficiency of title to any property acquired by us, or for the insufficiency of deficiency of any security in or upon which any of our monies shall be invested, or for any loss or damage arising from the bankruptcy, insolvency or tortious act of any person with whom any monies, securities or effects shall be deposited, or for any loss occasioned by any error of judgment, omission, default or oversight on his part, or for any other loss, damage or other misfortune whatever which shall happen in relation to the execution of his duties, or supposed duties, to us or otherwise in relation thereto. Each indemnitee

------

will be indemnified and held harmless out of our funds to the fullest extent permitted by Bermuda law against all liabilities, loss, damage or expense (including but not limited to liabilities under contract, tort and statute or any applicable foreign law or regulation and all reasonable legal and other costs and expenses properly payable) incurred or suffered by him as such director, alternate director, officer, person or committee member or resident representative (or in his reasonable belief that he is acting as any of the above). In addition, each indemnitee shall be indemnified against all liabilities incurred in defending any proceedings, whether civil or criminal, in which judgment is given in such indemnitee's favor, or in which he is acquitted. We are authorized to purchase insurance to cover any liability it may incur under the indemnification provisions of our Bye-Laws. Each shareholder has agreed in Bye-Law 166 to waive to the fullest extent permitted by Bermuda law any claim or right of action he might have whether individually or derivatively in the name of the company against each indemnitee in respect of any action taken by such indemnitee or the failure by such indemnitee to take any action in the performance of his duties to us.

**Liquidation**

In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of common shares are entitled to share in our assets, if any, remaining after the payment of all of our debts and liabilities, subject to any liquidation preference on any outstanding preference shares.

**Redemption, Repurchase and Surrender of Shares**

Subject to certain balance sheet restrictions, the Companies Act permits a company to purchase its own shares if it is able to do so without becoming cash flow insolvent as a result. The restrictions are that the par value of the share must be charged against the company's issued share capital account or a company fund which is available for dividend or distribution or be paid for out of the proceeds of a fresh issue of shares. Any premium paid on the repurchase of shares must be charged to the company's current share premium account or charged to a company fund which is available for dividend or distribution. The Companies Act does not impose any requirement that the directors shall make a general offer to all shareholders to purchase their shares pro rata to their respective shareholdings. Our Bye-Laws do not contain any specific rules regarding the procedures to be followed by us when purchasing our shares, and consequently the primary source of our obligations to shareholders when we tender for our shares will be the rules of the listing exchanges on which our shares are listed. Our power to purchase our shares is covered by Bye-Laws 7, 8 and 9.

**Issuance of Additional Shares** 

Bye-Law 3 confers on the directors the right to dispose of any number of unissued shares forming part of our authorized share capital without any requirement for shareholder approval.

The Companies Act and our Bye-Laws do not confer any pre-emptive, redemption, conversion or sinking fund rights attached to our common shares. Bye-Law 14 specifically provides that the issuance of more shares ranking pari passu with the shares in issue shall not constitute a variation of class rights, unless the rights attached to shares in issue state that the issuance of further shares shall constitute a variation of class rights.

**Inspection of Books and Records**

The Companies Act provides that a shareholder is entitled to inspect the register of shareholders and the register of directors and officers of the company. A shareholder is also entitled to inspect the minutes of the meetings of the shareholders of the company, and the annual financial statements of the company. Our Bye-Laws do not provide shareholders with any additional rights to information, and our Bye-Laws do not confer any general or specific rights on shareholders to inspect our books and records.

**Implications of Being a Foreign Private Issuer** 

We are considered a "foreign private issuer." For more information, please see the section entitled "Item 10.H. Additional Information-Documents on Display".

We may take advantage of these exemptions until the first day after we cease to qualify as a foreign private issuer. We would cease to be a foreign private issuer if, on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter, more than 50.0% of our outstanding voting securities are held by U.S. residents and any of the following three circumstances applies: (i) the majority of our executive officers or directors are U.S. citizens or residents, (ii) more than 50.0% of our assets are located in the United States or (iii) our business is administered principally in the United States. As a foreign private issuer, we have taken advantage of certain reduced reporting and other requirements that apply to U.S. "domestic" companies with shares registered with the SEC. Accordingly, the

------

information contained herein may be different than the information you receive from other public companies in which you hold equity securities.

**Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company**

We are also an "emerging growth company" as defined in the JOBS Act enacted in April 2012. An emerging growth company may take advantage of reduced reporting requirements that are otherwise applicable to public companies. These provisions include not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

To the extent that we cease to qualify as a foreign private issuer but remain an emerging growth company, we may also take advantage of (i) reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports, proxy statements (if any) and registration statements and (ii) exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

We intend to take advantage of the reduced reporting requirements and exemptions to the extent we cease to qualify as a foreign private issuer but remain an emerging growth company. Notwithstanding our status as an emerging growth company, we have not elected to use the extended transition period for complying with any new or revised financial accounting standards and, in accordance with SEC standards applicable to emerging growth companies, such election is irrevocable. For more information, please see the section entitled "Item 3.D. Risk Factors—Risk Factors Related to Applicable Laws and Regulations—As an emerging growth company, we are not currently subject to the requirement of auditor attestation of internal controls and certain disclosure requirements."

We may take advantage of these provisions until the last day of our fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of our common equity securities under an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, which is December 31, 2024. However, if certain events occur prior to the end of such five-year period, including if we become a "large accelerated filer," our gross revenues for any fiscal year equal or exceed $1.235 billion (as adjusted for inflation under SEC rules from time to time) or we issue more than $1.0 billion of nonconvertible debt in any three-year period, we will cease to be an emerging growth company prior to the end of such five-year period.

**Certain Bermuda Company Considerations**

Our corporate affairs are governed by our Memorandum and Bye-Laws as described above, the Companies Act and the common law of Bermuda. You should be aware that the Companies Act differs in certain material respects from the laws generally applicable to U.S. companies incorporated in the State of Delaware. Accordingly, you may have more difficulty protecting your interests under Bermuda law in the face of actions by management, directors or controlling shareholders than would shareholders of a corporation incorporated in a United States jurisdiction, such as the State of Delaware. Please see Exhibit 2.1 to this Annual Report on Form 20-F.

**C.MATERIAL CONTRACTS** 

For more information concerning our material contracts, see "Item 4. Information on the Company," "Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects" and "Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions" as well as "Item 19. Exhibits" of this Annual Report.

**D.EXCHANGE CONTROLS**

Our common shares may be offered or sold in Bermuda only in compliance with the provisions of the Investment Business Act of 2003 and the Exchange Control Act 1972, and related regulations of Bermuda which regulate the sale of securities in Bermuda. In addition, specific permission is required from the Bermuda Monetary Authority, or the BMA, pursuant to the provisions of the Exchange Control Act 1972 and related regulations, for all issuances and transfers of securities of Bermuda companies, other than in cases where the BMA has granted a general permission. The BMA in its policy dated June 1, 2005 provides that where any equity securities of a Bermuda company, including our common shares, are listed on an appointed stock exchange, general permission is given for the issue and subsequent transfer of any securities of a company from and/or to a nonresident, for as long as any equities securities of such company remain so listed. The NYSE is deemed to be an appointed stock exchange under Bermuda law.

Although we are incorporated in Bermuda, we are classified as a non-resident of Bermuda for exchange control purposes by the BMA. Other than transferring Bermuda Dollars out of Bermuda, there are no restrictions on our ability to transfer funds into and

------

out of Bermuda or to pay dividends in currency other than Bermuda Dollars to U.S. residents (or other non-residents of Bermuda) who are holders of our common shares.

In accordance with Bermuda law, share certificates may be issued only in the names of corporations, individuals or legal persons. In the case of an applicant acting in a special capacity (for example, as an executor or trustee), certificates may, at the request of the applicant, record the capacity in which the applicant is acting. Notwithstanding the recording of any such special capacity, we are not bound to investigate or incur any responsibility in respect of the proper administration of any such estate or trust. We will take no notice of any trust applicable to any of our shares or other securities whether or not we had notice of such trust.

**E.TAXATION**

The following discussion of the Bermuda and U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in our common shares is based upon laws and relevant interpretations thereof in effect as of the date of this annual report, all of which are subject to change. This summary does not deal with all possible tax consequences relating to an investment in our common shares, such as the tax consequences under U.S. state and local tax laws or under the tax laws of jurisdictions other than Bermuda and the United States.

**Bermuda Taxation**

While we are incorporated in Bermuda, we are not subject to taxation under the laws of Bermuda. Distributions we receive from our subsidiaries are also not subject to any Bermuda tax. There is no Bermuda income, corporation or profits tax, withholding tax, capital gains tax, capital transfer tax or estate duty or inheritance tax payable by nonresidents of Bermuda in respect of capital gains realized on a disposition of our shares or in respect of distributions they receive from us with respect to our shares. This discussion does not, however, apply to the taxation of persons ordinarily resident in Bermuda. Bermuda shareholders should consult their own tax advisors regarding possible Bermuda taxes with respect to dispositions of, and distributions on, our shares. We have received from the Minister of Finance under The Exempted Undertaking Tax Protection Act 1966, as amended, an assurance that, in the event that Bermuda enacts legislation imposing tax computed on profits, income, any capital asset, gain or appreciation, or any tax in the nature of estate duty or inheritance, the imposition of any such tax shall not be applicable to us or to any of our operations or shares, debentures or other obligations, until March 31, 2035. This assurance is subject to the proviso that it is not to be construed to prevent the application of any tax or duty to such persons as are ordinarily resident in Bermuda or to prevent the application of any tax payable in accordance with the provisions of the Land Tax Act 1967. The assurance does not exempt us from paying import duty on goods imported into Bermuda. In addition, all entities employing individuals in Bermuda are required to pay a payroll tax and there are other sundry taxes payable, directly or indirectly, to the Bermuda government. We and our subsidiaries incorporated in Bermuda pay annual government fees to the Bermuda government. Bermuda currently has no tax treaties in place with other countries in relation to double-taxation or for the withholding of tax for foreign tax authorities.

**U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations**

The following discussion is a summary of the U.S. federal income tax considerations generally applicable to the ownership and disposition of our common shares by U.S. Holders (as defined below) that hold our common shares as "capital assets" (generally, property held for investment) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. This discussion is based on the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder ("Regulations"), published positions of the IRS, administrative pronouncements, court decisions and other applicable authorities, all as in effect as of the date hereof and all of which are subject to change or differing interpretations (possibly with retroactive effect). No ruling has been sought from the IRS with respect to any U.S. federal income tax consequences described below, and there can be no assurance that the IRS would not take, or a court would not sustain a contrary position.

This discussion does not discuss all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to investors in light of their particular circumstances, or investors subject to special tax rules (including, for example, banks or other financial institutions, insurance companies, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, broker-dealers, dealers in securities or foreign currency, traders in securities that elect mark-to-market treatment, tax-exempt organizations (including private foundations), entities or arrangements that are treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes (or partners therein), holders who are not U.S. Holders, U.S. expatriates, holders who own (directly, indirectly or constructively) 10% or more of our stock (by vote or value), holders who acquire their common shares pursuant to any employee share option or otherwise as compensation, investors that will hold their common shares as part of a straddle, hedge, conversion, constructive sale or other integrated transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes or investors who have a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar, all of whom may be subject to tax rules that differ significantly from those discussed below). This discussion, moreover, does not address any U.S.

------

state or local or non-U.S. tax considerations or any U.S. federal estate, gift tax or alternative minimum tax considerations, or the Medicare tax on net investment income.

U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. income and other tax considerations of an investment in our common shares.

*General*

For purposes of this discussion, a "U.S. Holder" is a beneficial owner of our common shares that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (i) an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States, (ii) a corporation (or other entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created in, or organized under the laws of, the United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia, (iii) an estate the income of which is includible in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes regardless of its source or (iv) a trust (A) the administration of which is subject to the primary supervision of a U.S. court and which has one or more U.S. persons who have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (B) that has validly elected to be treated as a U.S. person under the Code for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

If a partnership (or other entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) is a beneficial owner of our common shares, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner in such partnership will generally depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partnerships holding our common shares and their partners should consult their tax advisors regarding an investment in our common shares.

*Dividends*

Subject to the discussion below under "Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations," the gross amount of any distributions received by a U.S. Holder on our common shares will generally be subject to tax as dividends to the extent paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles, and will generally be includible in the gross income of such U.S. Holder on the day actually or constructively received. Distributions in excess of our current or accumulated earnings and profits will generally be treated as a non-taxable return of capital to the extent of the U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis in our common shares and thereafter generally treated as capital gain. Because we do not intend to determine our earnings and profits on the basis of U.S. federal income tax principles, any distribution we pay is generally expected to be treated as a "dividend" for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Individual and other non-corporate U.S. Holders may be subject to tax at the lower capital gains rate applicable to "qualified dividend income," provided that certain requirements are met, including that (i) we are eligible for the benefits of a comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States which the Secretary of Treasury of the United States determines is satisfactory for purposes of this provision and which includes an exchange of information program, or our common shares are treated as readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States, (ii) we are neither a PFIC nor treated as such with respect to a U.S. Holder (as discussed below) for the taxable year in which the dividend is paid and the preceding taxable year, and (iii) certain holding period requirements are met. Our common shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange so our common shares are expected to be readily tradable, although there can be no assurance in this regard.

For foreign tax credit purposes, dividends received on our common shares will generally be treated as income from sources outside the United States and will generally constitute passive category income. The rules governing the U.S. foreign tax credit are complex and their application depends in large part on the U.S. Holder's individual facts and circumstances. Accordingly, U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the availability of the U.S. foreign tax credit under their particular circumstances.

*Sale or Other Disposition of our Shares*

Subject to the discussion below under "Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations," a U.S. Holder will generally recognize capital gain or loss upon the sale or other disposition of common shares in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized upon the disposition and the holder's adjusted tax basis in such common shares. Any capital gain or loss will be long-term if the U.S. Holder's holding period in respect of such common shares exceeds one year at the time of disposition and will generally be U.S. source gain or loss for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes.

------

Long-term capital gains of individuals and certain non-corporate U.S. Holders are currently eligible for reduced rates of taxation. The deductibility of capital losses may be subject to limitations. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the tax consequences if a foreign tax is imposed on a disposition of our common shares, including the availability of the foreign tax credit under their particular circumstances.

*Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations*

A non-U.S. corporation, such as the Company, will be classified as a passive foreign investment company, or PFIC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, if, in any taxable year, either (i) 75% or more of its gross income for such year consists of certain types of "passive" income or (ii) 50% or more of the value of its assets (determined on the basis of a quarterly average) during such year is attributable to assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income. Passive income generally includes, among other things, dividends, interest, rents, royalties and net gains from the disposition of assets that produce such income. However, passive income does not generally include income derived from the performance of services. Passive assets are those which give rise to passive income and include assets held for investment, as well as cash, assets readily convertible into cash, and (subject to certain exceptions) working capital. Our goodwill and other unbooked intangibles are taken into account and may be classified as active or passive depending on the income such assets generate or are held to generate. We will be treated as owning a proportionate share of the assets and earning a proportionate share of the income of any other corporation in which we own, directly or indirectly or constructively, at least 25% (by value) of its stock.

Based upon our income and assets, including goodwill and other unbooked intangibles, we believe we were not a PFIC for our most recent taxable year ended December 31, 2022, and we do not expect to be a PFIC for the current taxable year or foreseeable future taxable years. In making this determination, we believe that any income we receive from offshore drilling service contracts should not be treated as passive income under the PFIC rules and that the assets we own and utilize to generate this income should not be treated as passive assets. However, because these determinations are based on the nature of our income and assets from time to time, as well as involving the application of complex tax rules, and because our view is not binding on the courts or the IRS, no assurances can be provided that we will not be considered a PFIC for the current, or any past or future taxable years. While we do not expect to be or become a PFIC in the current or future taxable years, the determination of whether we are or will become a PFIC will depend on our income, assets and activities in each year. No assurance can be given that the composition of our income or assets will not change in a manner that could make us a PFIC in the future. Under circumstances where we determine not to deploy significant amounts of cash for capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes, our risk of becoming classified as a PFIC may substantially increase.

Because the determination of PFIC status is a fact-intensive inquiry made on an annual basis and will depend upon the composition of our assets and income, our goodwill and other unbooked intangibles, no assurance can be given that we are not or will not become classified as a PFIC. If we are classified as a PFIC for any year during which a U.S. Holder holds our common shares, we will generally continue to be treated as a PFIC with respect to such U.S. Holder for all succeeding years during which such U.S. Holder holds our common shares, regardless of whether we continue to meet either of the PFIC tests described above.

If we are classified as a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder holds our common shares, and unless the U.S. Holder makes a mark-to-market election (as described below), the U.S. Holder will generally be subject to special tax rules, regardless of whether we remain a PFIC, with respect to any (i) excess distribution that we make to the U.S. Holder (which generally means any distribution paid during a taxable year to a U.S. Holder that is greater than 125% of the average annual distributions paid in the three preceding taxable years or, if shorter, the U.S. Holder's holding period for the common shares) and (ii) gain realized on the sale or other disposition, including an indirect disposition such as a pledge, of common shares. Under the PFIC rules:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the excess distribution or gain will be allocated ratably over the U.S. Holder's holding period for the common shares;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• amounts allocated to the current taxable year and any taxable years in the U.S. Holder's holding period prior to the first taxable year in which we are classified as a PFIC (each, a "pre-PFIC year"), will be taxable as ordinary income;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• amounts allocated to each prior taxable year, other than a pre-PFIC year, will be subject to tax at the highest marginal tax rate in effect for individuals or corporations, as appropriate, for that year; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the interest charge generally applicable to underpayments of tax will be imposed on the tax attributable to each prior taxable year, other than a pre-PFIC year.

------

If we are a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder holds our common shares and any of our non-U.S. subsidiaries is also a PFIC, such U.S. Holder would be treated as owning a proportionate amount (by value) of the shares of each lower-tier PFIC for purposes of the application of these rules. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the PFIC rules to any of our subsidiaries.

As an alternative to the foregoing rules, a U.S. Holder of "marketable stock" in a PFIC may make a mark-to-market election with respect to such stock. If a U.S. Holder makes a valid mark-to-market election, the U.S. Holder will include in income each year an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the common shares as of the close of such U.S. Holder's taxable year over such U.S. Holder's adjusted basis in such shares. The U.S. Holder is allowed a deduction for the excess, if any, of such U.S. Holder's adjusted basis in the common shares over their fair market value as of the close of the taxable year. Deductions are allowable, however, only to the extent of any net mark-to-market gains on the common shares included in the U.S. Holder's income for prior taxable years. Amounts included in the U.S. Holder's income under a mark-to-market election, as well as gain on the actual sale or other disposition of the common shares, will be treated as ordinary income. Ordinary loss treatment also applies to the deductible portion of any mark-to-market loss on the common shares, as well as to any loss realized on the actual sale or disposition of the common shares, to the extent that the amount of such loss does not exceed the net mark-to-market gains previously included in income with respect to such shares. The U.S. Holder's basis in the common shares will be adjusted to reflect any such income or loss amounts. If a U.S. Holder makes a mark-to-market election, then, in any taxable year for which we are classified as a PFIC, tax rules that apply to distributions by corporations that are not PFICs would apply to distributions by us (except that the lower applicable capital gains rate for qualified dividend income would not apply). If a U.S. Holder makes a valid mark-to-market election and we subsequently cease to be classified as a PFIC, the U.S. Holder will not be required to take into account the mark-to-market income or loss described above during any period that we are not classified as a PFIC.

The mark-to-market election is available only for "marketable stock," which is stock that is traded in other than de minimis quantities on at least 15 days during each calendar quarter ("regularly traded") on a qualified exchange or other market, as defined in the applicable Regulations. For those purposes, our shares are treated as listed on a qualified exchange or other market since their listing on the New York Stock Exchange. We anticipate that our shares should qualify as being regularly traded, but no assurances may be given in this regard.

Because a mark-to-market election can be made only with respect to marketable stock, such election generally will not be available for any lower-tier PFICs that we may own. Therefore, if we are treated as a PFIC, a U.S. Holder may continue to be subject to the PFIC rules with respect to such U.S. Holder's indirect interest in any investments held by us that are treated as an equity interest in a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

We do not intend to provide information necessary for U.S. Holders to make qualified electing fund elections which, if available, would result in tax treatment different from the general tax treatment for PFICs described above.

If a U.S. Holder owns our common shares during any taxable year that we are a PFIC, the holder must generally file an annual IRS Form 8621 or such other form as is required by the U.S. Treasury Department. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the potential tax consequences to such holder if we are or become a PFIC, including the possibility of making a mark-to-market election.

*Foreign Financial Asset Reporting*

A U.S. Holder may be required to report information relating to an interest in our common shares, generally by filing IRS Form 8938 (Statement of Specified Foreign Financial Assets) with the U.S. Holder's federal income tax return. A U.S. Holder may also be subject to significant penalties if the U.S. Holder is required to report such information and fails to do so. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding information reporting obligations, if any, with respect to ownership and disposition of our common shares.

**H.DOCUMENTS ON DISPLAY**

We will file reports and other information with the Commission. The Commission maintains a website (http://www.sec.gov) that contains reports, proxy and information statements and other information regarding registrants that file electronically with it.

We are subject to periodic reporting and other informational requirements of the Exchange Act as applicable to foreign private issuers. Accordingly, we are required to file annual reports on Form 20-F and furnish reports on Form 6-K with the SEC. All information filed and furnished with the SEC can be obtained over the internet at the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

Our information filed with or furnished to the SEC is available free of charge through our website (www.borrdrilling.com). The information contained on our website is not a part of this annual report.

As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt under the Exchange Act from, among other things, the rules prescribing the furnishing and content of proxy statements. While we furnish proxy statements to shareholders in accordance with the applicable rules of any stock exchange on which our common shares may be listed in the future, those proxy statements will not conform to Schedule 14A of the proxy rules promulgated under the Exchange Act. Our executive officers, directors and principal shareholders are also exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions contained in section 16 of the Exchange Act. Although we will not be required under the Exchange Act to file periodic reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as U.S. companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act, we will furnish holders of our shares with annual reports containing audited financial statements and a report by our independent registered public accounting firm and intend to make available quarterly reports containing selected unaudited financial data for the first three quarters of each fiscal year. In addition, we are not required to comply with regulation FD, which restricts the selective disclosure of material information. The audited financial statements will be prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and those reports will include a "Operating and Financial Review and Prospects" section for the relevant periods.

**ITEM 11.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK**

We are exposed to various market risks, including interest rate and foreign currency exchange risks. The following section provides qualitative and quantitative disclosures on the effect that these risks could have upon us. The below quantitative analysis provides information regarding our exposure to interest rate risk and foreign currency risk.

*Interest Rate Risk*

Our debt obligations, with the exception of our convertible bonds, are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes as we are required to make interest payments based on LIBOR and SOFR plus associated margins that are specified in each financial arrangement. Significant increases in interest rates could adversely affect our results of operations and cash flow.

In addition, on March 5, 2021 the ICE Benchmark Administration and the FCA made the LIBOR Announcement, regarding the phase out of LIBOR. As a result we may have to renegotiate certain of our LIBOR-based debt instruments to reflect the phase out of LIBOR and substitute for other replacement benchmarks. Given the inherent differences between LIBOR and any other alternative benchmark rate that may be established, there are many uncertainties regarding a transition from LIBOR. At this time, it is not possible to predict the effect that these developments, discontinuance of LIBOR, modification or other reforms to any other reference rate, or the establishment of alternative reference rates may have, or other benchmarks. Furthermore, the shift to alternative reference rates or other reforms is complex and could cause the payments calculated for the LIBOR-based debt and derivative instruments to be materially different than expected, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation.

We may utilize derivative instruments to manage interest rate risk in the future, but we are not engaged in derivative transactions for speculative or trading purposes.

------

As of December 31, 2022, the fair value amount of our outstanding debt subject to variable interest rates was $1,287.4 million. Based on this outstanding debt balance, a hypothetical 100 basis point increase in annual LIBOR and SOFR interest rates would increase our annual interest expense by $12.3 million. This analysis is based on the assumption that the increase in the annual LIBOR and SOFR interest rates occur on January 1, 2023 and the outstanding debt amount is constant throughout the year.

For disclosure of the fair value of our debt obligations outstanding as of December 31, 2022, refer to Note 26 - Financial Instruments of our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included herein.

*Foreign Currency Risk*

The majority of our transactions are denominated in U.S. dollars, our functional currency. Periodically, we may be exposed to foreign currency exchange fluctuations as a result of expenses incurred associated with our international operations. This risk primarily pertains to our rig operating and maintenance expenses and our general and administrative expenses, which includes transactions denominated in primarily British Pounds, Malaysian Ringgit, Central African CFA Francs, Thai Baht, Euros, Singaporean Dollars, Norwegian Kroner, Saudi Riyal, Mexican Pesos and United Arab Emirates Dirham. We do not have any non-U.S. dollar debt and thus are not exposed to currency risk related to debt.

Our primary currency exchange rate risk management strategy involves structuring certain customer contracts to provide for payment from the customer in a combination of both U.S. dollars and local currency. The payment portion denominated in local currency is based on anticipated local currency requirements over the contract term. Due to various factors, including customer acceptance, local banking laws, other statutory requirements, local currency convertibility and the impact of inflation on local costs, actual local currency needs may vary from those anticipated in the customer contracts, resulting in partial exposure to currency exchange rate risk. Further, we may utilize foreign currency forward exchange contracts to manage foreign exchange risk. We are not engaged in derivative transactions for speculative or trading purposes.

The net foreign currency exchange impact resulting from our international operations has not historically had a material impact on our operating results with a foreign exchange loss of $0.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 recognized within "Other financial expenses, net" in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, a hypothetical ten percent adverse change in the exchange rates against the U.S. dollar would result in an increase of $15.0 million in our rig operating and maintenance expenses and general and administrative expenses, combined. The sensitivity analysis is based on an average ten percent increase in all foreign exchange currencies applied against the foreign currency transactions for the period thereby assuming foreign exchange rates change in a parallel manner, and assumes unchanged market conditions other than exchange rates, such as volatility and interest rates. For this reason, it is purely indicative.

**Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13(a)-15(i) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2022. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2022.

**Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

Our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined by Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP and includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets, that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Our management has assessed the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022 based on the criteria established in "Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013)" issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on such assessment and criteria, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2022.

**Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm**

Our independent registered public accounting firm is not required to formally attest to the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting for as long as we are an "emerging growth company" pursuant to the provisions of the JOBS Act.

**Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this annual report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

**ITEM 16A. AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT**

Based on the qualifications and relevant experience described in "Item 6.A. Directors and Senior Management", our board of directors has determined that Kate Blankenship and Neil Glass each qualify as an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 16A. of Form 20-F under the Exchange Act and are independent in accordance with SEC rule 10A-3 pursuant to Section 10A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and NYSE listed company independence requirements applicable to audit committee members.

**ITEM 16B. CODE OF ETHICS**

Our Board has established a code of business conduct and ethics applicable to our employees, directors and officers. Any waiver of this code may be made only by our Board and will be promptly disclosed as required by applicable U.S. federal securities laws and the corporate governance rules of the NYSE. Our code of business conduct and ethics is publicly available on our website at www.borrdrilling.com and is reviewed on an annual basis. We will provide any persons, free of charge, a copy of our code of ethics upon written request to our registered office.

**ITEM 16C. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES**

*Fees and services*

Effective from their appointment at the Annual General on September 17, 2019, the Company's shareholders approved the engagement of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, a United Kingdom entity ("PwC UK"), as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm.

Our audit committee charter requires that all audit and non-audit services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm are pre-approved by our audit committee. In particular, pursuant to our audit committee charter, the chair of the audit committee shall pre-approve all audit services to be provided to Borr Drilling, whether provided by our independent registered public accounting firm or other firms. Any decision of the chair of the audit committee to pre-approve audit or non-audit services shall be presented to the audit committee.

The following table sets forth the aggregate fees by categories specified below in connection with certain professional services rendered by PwC UK and other member firms within the PwC network for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Year ended December 31,** | **Year ended December 31,** |

| Audit fees<sup>(1)</sup> | 1.2 | 1.2 |
| Audit-related fees<sup>(2)</sup> | 0.5 | 0.3 |
| Tax fees<sup>(3)</sup> | 0.1 | 0.1 |
| **Total** | **1.8** | **1.6** |

---

<sup>(1)</sup> Includes fees billed or accrued for professional services rendered by the principal accountant, and member firms in their respective network, for the audit of our annual financial statements, and those of our consolidated subsidiaries, as well as additional services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements, except for those not required by statute or regulation.

<sup>(2)</sup> Audit-related fees principally consist of fees associated with our January 2022 and August 2022 equity offerings as well as our ATM program.

<sup>(3)</sup> Tax fees consist of fees for professional services rendered during the fiscal year by the principal accountant mainly for tax compliance and assistance with tax audits and appeals.

**ITEM 16G. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE**

Pursuant to Section 303A.11 of the NYSE listing standards, applicable to foreign private issuers, we are permitted to follow our home country practices in lieu of certain NYSE corporate governance requirements. Companies with securities listed at the OSE, are subject to report on the Norwegian Code of Practice for Corporate Governance (the "Norwegian Code").

Other than the matters described below, there are no significant differences between our corporate governance practices and those followed by U.S. domestic companies under NYSE rules.

*Audit Committee*. NYSE listing standards require, among other things, that a listed U.S. company have an audit committee with a minimum of three members, all of whom are independent. The Norwegian Code requires that most of the members are independent, that the members of the audit committee shall be elected by and among the members of the board of directors, and further that the board members who also are senior employees are not elected as members. Our audit committee consists of two independent directors, Kate Blankenship and Neil Glass, respectively, which differs from the NYSE listing standards which require a minimum of three members. Our audit committee complies with Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and the Norwegian Code.

*Shareholder Approval Requirements.* NYSE listing standards require that a listed U.S. company obtain prior shareholder approval for certain issuances of shares or the approval of, and material revisions to, equity compensation plans. As permitted under the Norwegian Code, Bermuda law and our bye-laws, we do not seek such shareholder approval prior to issuances of authorized stock exceeding 20% of the number of shares or voting power outstanding, issuances of shares to certain related parties or entities in which a related party has an interest or approval for equity compensation plans and to material revisions thereof.

**Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Borr Drilling Limited,

***Opinion on the Financial Statements***

We have audited the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets of Borr Drilling Limited and its subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, and the related Consolidated Statements of Operations, Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss, Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and Consolidated Statements of Changes in Shareholders' Equity for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

***Substantial Doubt about the Company's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern***

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred significant losses since inception and is dependent on continuing improvement in the market, securing profitable contracts, and obtaining additional financing in order to meet existing capital expenditure commitments and debt obligations expected in the next 12 months that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

***Basis for Opinion***

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

**BORR DRILLING LIMITED**

**NOTES TO THE AUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**Note 1 - General**

Borr Drilling Limited was incorporated in Bermuda on August 8, 2016. We are listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange and on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker "BORR". 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 of 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 December 31, 2022, we had a total of 22 premium jack-up rigs, including one rig which was "warm stacked", and had agreed to purchase two additional premium jack-up rigs under construction, which are scheduled for delivery in 2025.

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.

*Going concern*

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

We have incurred significant losses since inception and may be dependent on additional financing in order to meet our existing capital expenditure commitments and our debt obligations expected in the next 12 months.

On December 28, 2021, as contemplated by the agreements in principle with the shipyard creditors, subsequently reflected in executed agreements, outlined below, the Company launched a private placement which closed in January 2022, raising net proceeds of $28.9 million by issuing 13,333,333 shares at a subscription price of $2.25 per share.

On June 27, 2022, we announced that we had entered into a letter of intent ("LOI") for the sale of three newbuilding jack-up rigs for $320.0 million, subject to various conditions. In September 2022, we entered into a sales agreement, giving effect to the previously executed LOI. Upon sale of the first of the three rigs to be sold, proceeds from the sale were used to pay the delivery installments for one of the rigs. The remaining proceeds will be used to pay the delivery installment of the other two rigs and further eliminate the associated activation costs that would have applied in the future.

In August 2022, the Company conducted a public offering raising net proceeds of $260.4 million by issuing 76,363,071 shares at a subscription price of $3.60 per share ("2022 August Equity Offering"). Proceeds from the August Equity Offering were used to consummate the refinancing described below.

In October 2022, we entered into agreements with our shipyard creditors and other secured creditors to refinance our respective debt facilities, extending the debt maturity to 2025. As part of these agreements, we paid the outstanding balance of our Syndicated Facility and New Bridge Facility with proceeds from our new $150.0 million bilateral facility provided by DNB Bank ASA, an existing lender in the previous facilities, and using a portion of the proceeds from our 2022 August Equity Offering.

In addition, we paid down $45.0 million of our Hayfin facility with proceeds from our 2022 August Equity Offering. While there was no refinancing of our facilities with Keppel, our amended agreement with Keppel resulted in the deferral of the delivery dates for two of our newbuild rigs to 2025 and included an agreement for Keppel to cooperate with the sale of the other three newbuild rigs we agreed to purchase and which we subsequently agreed to sell.

On October 13, 2022, we announced that we had entered into an agreement to sell the jack-up rig "Gyme" for $120.0 million. The sale of the rig was pursuant to an undertaking by the Company under its most recent refinancing with PPL Shipyard completed in October 2022. Upon closing of the transaction on November 15, 2022, the proceeds from the sale were applied to all outstanding amounts owed on the rig, and excess amounts were applied to the capitalized interest for the eight other rigs financed by PPL.

In February 2023, we issued $250.0 million senior unsecured convertible bonds due February 8, 2028 and $150.0 million senior secured bonds due February 9, 2026. The proceeds from the unsecured convertible bonds and secured bonds will be used to refinance the outstanding $350.0 million of convertible bonds due May 23, 2023 and for general corporate purposes.

------

In July 2021, we established an ATM program under which we may offer and sell from time to time up to $40.0 million of our common shares to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Since establishment of the ATM program through to December 31, 2022, we have sold 2,350,000 shares, raising $8.8 million in net proceeds under the ATM program.

The sale of shares under our ATM program, the equity raised in December 2021 and August 2022, the extension of the maturities of our secured debt to 2025 and raising of proceeds from the unsecured convertible bonds and secured bonds issued in February 2023 have improved our current liquidity situation. Additionally, the sale of the jack-up rig "Gyme" jack-up rig for $120.0 million with proceeds from the sale being applied to all outstanding amounts owed on the rig, reduced our total outstanding debt and agreement to sell three newbuildings jack-up rigs for $320.0 million with proceeds from the sale to pay the delivery installments of the three newbuildings jack-up rigs and further eliminate the associated activation costs that would apply in the future, have reduced our capital commitments. However, our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on a continuing improvement in the jack-up drilling market and securing our rigs on profitable contracts, in addition to being able to meet our existing capital expenditure commitments and our debt obligations during 2023. As such, we have concluded that a substantial doubt exists over our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements included in this report do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

We will continue to explore additional financing opportunities and strategic sale of a limited number of modern jack-ups or joint ventures in order to further strengthen the liquidity of the Company. While we have confidence that these actions will enable us to better manage our liquidity position, and we have a track record of delivering additional financing and selling rigs and joint ventures, there is no guarantee that any additional financing or sale measures will be concluded successfully.

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

**Basis of preparation**

The audited consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"). Amounts are presented in United States Dollars ("U.S. dollar or $") rounded to the nearest million, unless otherwise stated.

On December 14, 2021 the Board of Directors approved a 2-to-1 reverse share split of the Company's shares. Upon effectiveness of the Reverse Split, every two shares of the Company's issued and outstanding common shares, par value $0.05 per share was combined into one issued and outstanding common share, par value $0.10 per share. Unless otherwise indicated, all share and per share data in these Consolidated Audited Financial Statements have been adjusted to give effect of our Reverse Share Split and is approximate due to rounding.

**Principles of consolidation**

A variable interest entity ("VIE") is defined by the accounting standard as a legal entity where either (a) equity interest holders, as a group, lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest, including decision making ability and an interest in the entity's residual risks and rewards, or (b) the equity holders have not provided sufficient equity investment to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, or (c) the voting rights of some investors are not proportional to their obligations to absorb the expected losses of the entity, their rights to receive the expected residual returns of the entity, or both and substantially all of the entity's activities either involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights. A party that is a variable interest holder is required to consolidate a VIE if the holder has both (a) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance, and (b) the obligation to absorb losses that could potentially be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

Investments in entities in which we directly or indirectly hold more than 50% of the voting control are consolidated in the financial statements. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated. The non-controlling interests of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of operations as "Non-controlling interests".

**Foreign currencies**

The Company and the majority of its subsidiaries use the U.S. dollar as their functional currency as the majority of their revenues and expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars. Accordingly, the Company's reporting currency is also U.S. dollars. For

------

subsidiaries that maintain their accounts in currencies other than U.S. dollars, the Company uses the current method of translation whereby the statement of operations is translated using the average exchange rate for the period and the assets and liabilities are translated using the period end exchange rate.

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the rates of exchange in effect at the date of the transaction. Gains and losses on foreign currency transactions are included in "Other financial (expenses) income, net" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

**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.

In assessing the recoverability of our jack-up rigs' carrying amounts, we make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows, estimates in respect of residual or scrap values, utilization, revenue dayrates, operating and maintenance expenses and capital expenditures.

**Fair value measurements**

We account for fair value measurement in accordance with the accounting standards guidance using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. The guidance provides a single definition for fair value, together with a framework for measuring it, and requires additional disclosure about the use of fair value to measure assets and liabilities.

**Revenue**

The Company performs services that represent a single performance obligation under its drilling contracts. This performance obligation is satisfied over time. The Company earns revenues primarily by performing the following activities: (i) providing the drilling rig, work crews, related equipment and services necessary to operate the rig (ii) delivering the drilling rig by mobilizing to and demobilizing from the drilling location, and (iii) performing certain pre-operating activities, including rig preparation activities or equipment modifications required for the contract.

The Company recognizes revenues earned under drilling contracts based on variable dayrates, which range from a full operating dayrate to lower rates or zero rates for periods when drilling operations are interrupted or restricted, based on the specific activities performed during the contract. The total transaction price is determined for each individual contract by estimating both fixed and variable consideration expected to be earned over the firm term of the contract and may include the blending of rates when a contract has operating dayrates that change over the firm term of the contract. Such dayrate consideration is attributed to the distinct time period to which it relates within the contract term, and therefore is recognized as the Company performs the services. The Company recognizes reimbursement revenues and the corresponding costs, gross, at a point in time, as the Company provides the customer-requested goods and services, when such reimbursable costs are incurred while performing drilling operations.

Prior to performing drilling operations, the Company may receive pre-operating revenues, on either a fixed lump-sum or variable dayrate basis, for mobilization, contract preparation, customer-requested goods and services or capital upgrades or other upfront payments, which the Company recognizes over time in line with the satisfaction of the performance obligation. These activities are not considered to be distinct within the context of the contract and therefore, the associated revenue is allocated to the overall performance obligation and recognized ratably over the expected term of the related drilling contract. We record a contract liability for mobilization fees received, which is amortized ratably to dayrate revenue as services are rendered over the initial term of the related drilling contract.

We may receive fees (on either a fixed lump-sum or variable dayrate basis) for the demobilization of our rigs. Demobilization revenue expected to be received upon contract completion is estimated as part of the overall transaction price at contract inception and recognized over the term of the contract. In most of our contracts, there is uncertainty as to the likelihood and amount of expected demobilization revenue to be received as the amount may vary dependent upon whether or not the rig has additional contracted work following the contract. Therefore, the estimate for such revenue may be constrained, depending on the facts and circumstances pertaining to the specific contract. We assess the likelihood of receiving such revenue based on past experience and knowledge of the market conditions.

------

**Contract costs**

The Company incurs costs to prepare rigs for contract and deliver or mobilize rigs to drilling locations. The Company defers pre-operating contract preparation and mobilization costs, and recognizes such costs on a straight-line basis, in "Rig operating and maintenance expenses" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, over the estimated firm period of the drilling contract. Contract preparation and mobilization costs can include costs relating to equipment, labor and rig transportation costs (tugs, heavy lift vessel costs), that are directly attributable to our future performance obligation under each respective drilling contract. Costs incurred for the demobilization of rigs at contract completion are recognized as incurred during the demobilization process.

**Related parties**

Parties are related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Parties are also related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.

**Related party revenue**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a.Management and services revenue: We provide corporate support services, secondment of personnel and management services to our equity method investments under management and service agreements. The revenue for these services is based on costs incurred in the period, inclusive of an appropriate margin and has been recognized under related party revenue in our Consolidated Statement of Operations. The associated costs are included within total operating expenses in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b.Bareboat revenue: We lease rigs on bareboat charters to our Equity Method Investments, Perforaciones Estratégicas e Integrales Mexicana, S.A. de C.V. ("Perfomex") and Perforaciones Estrategicas e Integrales Mexicana II, SA de CV ("Perfomex II"). We expect lease revenue earned under the bareboat charters to be variable over the lease term, as a result of the contractual arrangement which assigns the bareboat a value over the lease term equivalent to residual earnings after operating expenses and other fees. We, as a lessor, do not recognize a lease asset or liability on our balance sheet at the time of the formation of the entities nor as a result of the lease. Revenue is recognized under "Related party revenue" in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

**Rig operating and maintenance expenses**

Rig operating and maintenance expenses are costs associated with operating rigs that are either in operation or stacked, and include the remuneration of offshore crews and related costs, rig supplies, inventory, insurance costs, expenses for repairs and maintenance as well as costs related to onshore personnel in various locations where we operate and are expensed as incurred. Stacking costs for rigs are expensed as incurred.

**Impairment of long-lived assets**

We continually monitor events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of our long-lived assets may not be recoverable. At least annually, and if such events or changes in circumstances are present, we assess the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the total of the future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, we recognize an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amounts over the respective fair values, based on the undiscounted cash flows. In this assessment of recoverability, we apply a variety of valuation methods, incorporating income, market and cost approaches. We may weight the approaches under certain circumstances. Our estimate of fair value generally requires us to use significant unobservable inputs, representative of Level 3 fair value measurements, including assumptions regarding long-term future performance of our asset groups, such as projected revenues and costs, dayrates, utilization and residual values. These projections involve uncertainties that rely on assumptions about demand for our services and future market conditions.

**Other-than-temporary impairment of investments**

Where there are indicators that fair value is below carrying value of our investments, we will evaluate these for other-than-temporary impairment. Consideration will be given to: (i) the length of time and the extent to which fair value is below the carrying value, (ii) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the investee, and (iii) our intent and ability to hold the investment until any anticipated recovery. Where determined to be other-than-temporary impairment, we will recognize an impairment loss in the period.

------

**Equity method investments**

We account for our ownership interest in certain of our investments as equity method investments. The equity method of accounting is applied when we generally have between 20% and 50% of the voting rights, or over which we have significant influence, but over which we do not exercise control or have the power to control the financial and operational policies. This also extends to entities in which we hold a majority interest, but we do not have control. Under this method, we record our investment at cost and adjust the carrying amount for our share of earnings or losses of the equity method investment in "Income/(loss) from equity method investments" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. When our share of losses equals or exceeds our interest, we do not recognize further losses, unless we have incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the equity method investment. Guarantees issued to the equity method investments and in-substance capital contributions and capital contributions are added to the carrying value of the equity method investment in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Our share of earnings or losses are reflected as a non-cash activity in operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Investments in equity method investments are assessed for other-than-temporary impairment whenever changes in the facts and circumstances indicate that the fair value may be below the carrying value of our investment. Where determined to be other-than-temporary impairment, we will recognize an impairment loss in the period in "Income/(loss) from equity method investments" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

**Income taxes** 

Borr Drilling Limited is a Bermuda company that has a number of subsidiaries, affiliates and branches in various jurisdictions. Whilst the Company is resident in Bermuda, it is not subject to taxation under the laws of Bermuda, so currently, the Company is not required to pay taxes in Bermuda on ordinary income or capital gains. The Company and each of its subsidiaries and affiliates that are Bermuda companies have received written assurance from the Minister of Finance in Bermuda that in the event that Bermuda enacts legislation imposing taxes on ordinary income or capital gains, any such tax shall not be applicable to the Company or such subsidiaries and affiliates until March 31, 2035. Certain subsidiaries, affiliates and branches operate in other jurisdictions where withholding taxes are imposed. Consequently, income taxes have been recorded in these jurisdictions when appropriate. Our income tax expense is based on our income and statutory tax rates in the various jurisdictions in which we operate. We provide for income taxes based on the tax laws and rates in effect in the countries in which operations are conducted and income is earned.

The determination and evaluation of our annual group income tax provision involves interpretation of tax laws in various jurisdictions in which we operate and requires significant judgment and use of estimates and assumptions regarding significant future events, such as amounts, timing and character of income, deductions and tax credits. There are certain transactions for which the ultimate tax determination is unclear due to uncertainty in the ordinary course of business. We recognize tax liabilities on uncertain tax positions as per US GAAP, including penalties and interest, if applicable, based on our assessment of whether our tax positions are more likely than not sustainable, based solely on the technical merits and considerations of the relevant taxing authority's widely understood administrative practices and precedence. Changes in tax laws, regulations, agreements, treaties, foreign currency exchange restrictions or our levels of operations or profitability in each jurisdiction may impact our tax liability in any given year. While our annual tax provision is based on the information available to us at the time, a number of years may elapse before the ultimate tax liabilities in certain tax jurisdictions are determined. Current income tax expense reflects an estimate of our income tax liability for the current period, withholding taxes, changes in prior year tax estimates as tax returns are filed, or from tax audit adjustments.

Income tax expense consists of taxes currently payable and changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities calculated according to local tax rules.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are based on temporary differences that arise between carrying values used for financial reporting purposes and amounts used for taxation purposes of assets and liabilities and the future tax benefits of tax loss carry forwards.

Our deferred tax expense or benefit represents the change in the balance of deferred tax assets or liabilities as reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Valuation allowances are determined to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. To determine the amount of deferred tax assets and liabilities, as well as of the valuation allowances, we must make estimates and certain assumptions regarding future taxable income, including assumptions regarding where our jack-up rigs are expected to be deployed, as well as other assumptions related to our future tax position. A change in such estimates and assumptions, along with any changes in tax laws, could require us to adjust the deferred tax assets, liabilities, or valuation allowances. The amount of deferred tax provided is based upon the expected

------

manner of settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted at the balance sheet date. The impact of tax law changes is recognized in periods when the change is enacted.

**Earnings per share**

Basic (loss)/earnings per share ("EPS") is calculated based on the loss for the period available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding. Diluted EPS includes the effect of the assumed conversion of potentially dilutive instruments which for the Company includes share options, performance stock units, restricted stock units and convertible bonds. The determination of dilutive EPS may require us to make adjustments to net loss and the weighted average shares outstanding used to compute basic EPS unless anti-dilutive.

**Onerous contracts**

When we acquire newbuild jack-up drilling rigs there may exist instances whereby the fair value of the rig being constructed is less than the present value of the remaining contractual commitments for the rig. Such contracts are recorded as a liability when the difference is identified.

**Cash and cash equivalents**

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash, bank deposits and highly liquid financial instruments with original maturities of three months or less.

**Restricted cash**

Restricted cash consists of bank deposits which have been pledged as collateral for performance guarantees issued by banks in relation to rig operating contracts or minimum deposits which must be maintained in accordance with credit agreements. Restricted cash amounts with maturities longer than one year are classified as non-current assets.

**Allowance for credit losses**

Financial assets recorded at amortized cost reflect an allowance for current expected credit losses ("credit losses") over the lifetime of the instrument. The allowance for credit losses reflects a deduction to the net amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. Amounts are written off against the allowance when management believes the balance is uncollectible. Expected recoveries will not exceed amounts previously written-off or current credit loss allowances by financial asset category. We estimate expected credit losses based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. Specific calculation of our credit allowances is included in the respective accounting policies included herein; all other financial assets are assessed on an individual basis calculated using the method we consider most appropriate for each asset.

**Trade receivables**

Trade receivables are recognized when the right to consideration becomes unconditional based upon contractual billing schedules. Trade receivables are presented net of allowances for expected credit losses. The allowances for expected credit losses are calculated using a loss rate applied against an aging matrix and is recorded in "Rig operating and maintenance expenses" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, as and when they occur.

**Contract assets and contract liabilities**

Contract asset balances consist primarily of accrued revenue relating to work performed in the period, however which is yet to be invoiced. When the right to consideration becomes unconditional based on the contractual billing schedule, accrued revenue is recognized. At the point that accrued revenue is billed, trade accounts receivables are recognized. Contract asset balances also include amounts recognized in advance of amounts invoiced due to the blending of rates when a contract has operating dayrates that increase over the firm term of the contract.

Contract liabilities include payments received for mobilization as well as rig preparation and upgrade activities which are allocated to the overall performance obligation and recognized ratably over the initial term of the contract in "Total operating revenues" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Contract liabilities also include amounts invoiced in advance of amounts recognized due to the blending of rates when a contract has operating dayrates that increase over the firm term of the contract.

------

**Marketable securities**

Marketable debt securities held by us which do not give us the ability to exercise significant influence are considered to be available-for-sale. These are re-measured at fair value each reporting period with resulting unrealized gains and losses recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income in the shareholders' equity. Gains and losses are not realized until the securities are sold or subject to temporary impairment. Gains and losses on forward contracts to purchase marketable equity securities that do not meet the definition of a derivative are accounted for as available-for-sale securities. We analyze our available-for-sale securities for impairment at each reporting period to evaluate whether an event or change in circumstances has occurred in that period that may have a significant adverse effect on the value of the securities. We record an impairment charge for other-than-temporary declines in value when the value is not anticipated to recover above the cost within a reasonable period after the measurement date, unless there are mitigating factors that indicate impairment may not be required. If an impairment charge is recorded, subsequent recoveries in value are not reflected in earnings until sale of the securities held as available for sale occurs.

Where there are indicators that fair value is below the carrying value of our investments, we will evaluate these for other-than-temporary impairment. Where we determine that there is other-than-temporary impairment, we will recognize an impairment loss in the period.

Marketable equity securities with readily determinable fair value are re-measured at fair value each reporting period with unrealized gains and losses recognized in "Other financial expenses, net" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

**Jack-up rigs**

Jack-up rigs and related equipment are recorded at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Jack-up rigs and related equipment acquired as part of asset acquisitions are stated at fair market value as of the date of acquisition. The cost of our jack-up rigs and related equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis, after deducting salvage values, over their estimated remaining economic useful lives. Depreciation commences when an asset is placed into service, and available for its intended use.

Useful lives applied in depreciation are as follows:

Jack-up rigs&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;30 years

Jack-up rig equipment and machinery&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3 to 20 years

All costs incurred in connection with the acquisition, construction, major enhancement and improvement of assets are capitalized, including allocations of interest incurred during periods that our jack-up rigs are under construction or undergoing major enhancements or improvements. Costs incurred to place an asset into service are capitalized, including costs related to the initial mobilization of a newbuild jack-up rig. Expenditures that do not improve the operating efficiency or extend the useful lives of jack-up rigs or related equipment are expensed as incurred.

We evaluate the carrying value of our jack-up rigs on a quarterly basis to identify events or changes in circumstances that indicate that the carrying value of such jack-up rigs may not be recoverable. Recoverability is generally determined by comparing the carrying value of an asset to the expected undiscounted future cash flows of the asset. If the carrying value of the asset is not recoverable, an impairment loss is recognized as the difference between the carrying value of the asset and its fair value. Jack-up rigs and related equipment held-for-sale are recorded at the lower of net book value or fair value.

**Interest cost capitalized**

Interest costs are capitalized on all qualifying assets that require a period of time to get them ready for their intended use. Qualifying assets consist of newbuilding rigs under construction. The interest costs capitalized are calculated using the weighted average cost of borrowings, from commencement of the asset development until substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use are complete. We do not capitalize amounts beyond the actual interest expense incurred in the period.

------

**Newbuildings**

Jack-up rigs under construction are capitalized, classified as newbuildings and presented as non-current assets. All costs directly incurred in connection with the construction of newbuildings are capitalized, including allocations of interest incurred during periods that our newbuildings are under construction. Costs incurred to place an asset into service are capitalized, including costs related to the initial mobilization of a newbuild jack-up rig.

Capitalized costs are reclassified from newbuildings to jack-up rigs when the assets are available for their intended use.

**Leases**

The following sets out the lease accounting policy for all leases with the exception of short-term leases (less than 12 months) for which we have elected to recognize the lease payments in our Consolidated Statements of Operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term and variable lease payments in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred.

*Lessee:* When we enter into a new contract, or modify an existing contract, we evaluate whether that contract has a finance or operating lease component. We do not have, nor expect to have any leases classified as finance leases. We determine the lease commencement date by reference to the date the leased asset is available for use and transfer of control has occurred from the lessor. At the lease commencement date, we measure and recognize a lease liability and a right of use ("ROU") asset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The lease liability is measured at the present value of the lease payments not yet paid, discounted using the estimated incremental borrowing rate ("IBR") at lease commencement. The ROU asset is measured at the initial measurement of the lease liability, plus any lease payments made to the lessor at or before the commencement date, minus any lease incentives received, plus any initial direct costs incurred by us.

After the commencement date, we adjust the carrying amount of the lease liability by the amount of payments made in the period as well as the unwinding of the discount over the lease term using the straight-line interest method. After commencement date, we amortize the ROU asset by the amount required to keep total lease expense including interest constant (straight-line over the lease term).

Absent an impairment of the ROU asset, the single lease cost is calculated so that the remaining cost of the lease is allocated over the remaining lease term on a straight-line basis. The Company assesses a ROU asset for impairment and recognizes any impairment loss in accordance with the accounting policy on impairment of long-lived assets.

We applied the following significant assumptions and judgments in accounting for our leases.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We apply judgment in determining whether a contract contains a lease or a lease component as defined by Topic 842.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We have elected to combine leases and non-lease components. As a result, we do not allocate our consideration between leases and non-lease components.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The discount rate applied to our operating leases is our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Within the terms and conditions of some of our operating leases we have options to extend or terminate the lease. In instances where we are reasonably certain to exercise available options to extend or terminate, then the option is included in determining the appropriate lease term to apply. Options to renew our lease terms are included in determining the ROU asset and lease liability when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option.

*Lessor:* When we enter into a new contract, or modify an existing contract, we identify whether that contract has a sales-type, direct financing or operating lease. We do not have, nor expect to have any leases classified as sales-type or direct financing. For our operating lease, the underlying asset remains on our Consolidated Balance Sheets and we record periodic depreciation expense and lease revenue.

**Interest-bearing debt**

Interest-bearing debt is recognized initially at fair value less directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, interest-bearing borrowings related to Delivery financing are stated at amortized cost.

------

**Deferred charges**

Costs associated with long-term financing, including debt arrangement fees, are deferred and amortized over the term of the relevant loan using the straight-line method as this approximates the effective interest method. Amortization of loan costs is included in "Other financial (expenses) income, net" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. If a loan is repaid early, any unamortized portion of the related deferred charge is charged against income in the period in which the loan is repaid. Deferred charges are presented as either a gross asset or as a deduction from the corresponding liability in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

**Debt extinguishments and modifications**

Costs associated with debt extinguishments are included in determining the debt extinguishment gain or loss to be recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Costs associated with debt modifications are accounted for as deferred charges. See Deferred charges accounting policy.

**Convertible bonds**

We account for debt instruments with convertible features in accordance with the details and substance of the instruments at the time of their issuance. For convertible debt instruments issued at a substantial premium to equivalent instruments without conversion features, or those that may be settled in cash upon conversion, it is presumed that the premium or cash conversion option represents an equity component.

Accordingly, we determine the carrying amounts of the liability and equity components of such convertible debt instruments by first determining the carrying amount of the liability component by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an equity component. The carrying amount of the equity component representing the embedded conversion option is then determined by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the total proceeds from the issue. The resulting equity component is recorded, with a corresponding offset to debt discount which is subsequently amortized to interest cost using the effective interest method over the period the debt is expected to be outstanding as an additional non-cash interest expense. Transaction costs associated with the instrument are allocated pro-rata between the debt and equity components.

For conventional convertible bonds which do not have a cash conversion option or where no substantial premium is received on issuance, it may not be appropriate to separate the bond into the liability and equity components.

**Derivatives**

We use derivatives to reduce market risks. All derivative financial instruments are initially recorded at fair value as either assets or liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets and subsequently remeasured to fair value. The changes in fair value of derivative financial instruments are recognized each period in "Other financial (expenses) income, net" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Cash outflows and inflows resulting from economic derivative contracts are presented as cash flows from operations in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. We do not apply hedge accounting.

**Equity issuance costs**

Equity issuance costs are recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in-capital and charged to shareholders' equity.

**Pensions**

Defined benefit pension costs, assets and liabilities requires significant actuarial assumptions to be adjusted annually to reflect current market and economic conditions. Full recognition of the funded status of defined benefit pension plans are included within our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We fair value, using level 3 inputs, our plan assets and projected benefit obligation.

Defined contribution pension costs represent the contributions payable to the scheme in respect of the accounting period and are recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

------

**Treasury shares**

Treasury shares are recognized at cost as a component of shareholders' equity. When we re-issue treasury stock at an amount greater/ (less) than the current price of the share (based on a first in first out policy), we realize a gain/ (loss) on the re-issuance of the shares. A gain on re-issuance of treasury shares is credited to additional paid-in-capital whereas a loss on re-issuance of treasury shares may be debited to additional paid-in-capital to the extent that previous net gains from sales or retirements of the same class of stock are included in additional paid-in-capital. Any losses in excess of that amount are charged to retained earnings.

**Share-based compensation** 

Our stock-based compensation includes stock options, performance stock units ("PSUs") and restricted stock-units ("RSUs").

The fair value of stock options is estimated using the Black-Scholes Option pricing method, the fair value of the PSUs is estimated using the Monte Carlo option pricing model and the fair value of RSUs is estimated using the fair value of the Company's common stock at grant date.

We expense the fair value of stock-based compensation over the period the stock options, PSUs or RSUs vest. We amortize stock-based compensation awards on a straight-line basis over the period during which the individuals are required to provide service in exchange for the reward-the requisite service (vesting) period. No compensation cost is recognized for stock-based compensation for which the individuals do not render the requisite service. We account for forfeitures as they occur.

**Contingencies**

We assess our contingencies on an ongoing basis to evaluate the appropriateness of our liabilities and disclosures for such contingencies. We recognize a liability when we believe that a loss is probable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated, based upon the information available before the issuance of the financial statements.

**Segment reporting**

A segment is a distinguishable component of the business that is engaged in business activities from which we earn revenues and incur expenses whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") (our Board of Directors), and which are subject to risks and rewards that are different from those of other segments. We have identified two reportable segments: Dayrate and Integrated Well Services ("IWS"). Effective August 4, 2021, we have one reportable segment, Dayrate, following the sale of the Company's 49% interest in each Opex and Akal, representing the Company's disposal of the IWS operating segment (see Note 7 - Equity Method Investments).

**Note 3 - Recently Issued Accounting Standards**

*Adoption of new accounting standards*

In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2020-06 Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging— Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). The amendments simplify the issuer's accounting for convertible instruments and its application of the equity classification guidance. The new guidance eliminates some of the existing models for assessing convertible instruments, which results in more instruments being recognized as a single unit of account on the balance sheet and expands disclosure requirements. The new guidance simplifies the assessment of contracts in an entity's own equity and existing EPS guidance in ASC 260. These amendments are effective from January 1, 2022. There was no impact resulting from these amendments on our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements or related disclosures.

In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-04 Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt— Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging —Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). The amendments clarify the issuer's recognition and measurement considerations resulting from exchanges or modifications to freestanding instruments (written call options) classified in equity. Such exchanges or modifications are treated as adjustments to the cost to raise debt, to the cost to raise equity or as share based payments (ASC 718) when issued to compensate for goods or services. If not treated as costs of debt funding, equity funding or share-based payments, it results in an adjustment to EPS/net income (loss). These amendments are effective from January 1, 2022. There was no impact resulting from these amendments on our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements or related disclosures.

------

In July 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-05 Leases (Topic 842) - Lessors - Certain leases with Variable Lease Payments. The amendment affects lessors with lease contracts that have variable lease payments that do not depend on a reference index or a rate and would have resulted in the recognition of a selling loss at lease commencement if classified as sales-type or direct financing leases. The new guidance amends the lease classification requirements where lessors should classify and account for a lease with variable lease payments that do not depend on a reference index or a rate as an operating lease if certain criteria are met. When a lease is classified as operating, the lessor does not recognize a net investment in the lease, does not recognize the underlying asset, and, therefore, does not recognize a selling profit or loss. These amendments are effective from January 1, 2022. There was no impact resulting from these amendments on our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements or related disclosures.

In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-10 Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance. The amendment in this Update requires the following annual disclosures about transactions with a government that are accounted for by applying a grant or contribution accounting model by analogy: (i) information about the nature of the transactions and the related accounting policy used to account for the transactions, (ii) the line items on the balance sheet and income statement that are affected by the transactions, and the amounts applicable to each financial statement line item and (iii) significant terms and conditions of the transactions, including commitments and contingencies. These amendments are effective from January 1, 2022. There was no impact resulting from these amendments on our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements or related disclosures.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04 in relation to Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) providing optional guidance for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if criteria were met. The amendments provided temporary optional expedients and exceptions to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. The applicable expedients for us are in relation to modifications of contracts within the scope of Topics 310 Receivables, 470 Debt and 842 Leases. This optional guidance could be applied prospectively from any date from March 12, 2020 and could not be applied to contract modifications that occur after December 31, 2022. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06 Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848. The amendments in this Update defer the sunset date of Topic 848 from December 31, 2022, to December 31, 2024, after which entities will no longer be permitted to apply the relief in Topic 848. These amendments are effective upon issuance of this update. There was no current impact resulting from these amendments on our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements or related disclosures and we do not currently expect these amendments to have a material impact on our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures in future periods.

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Standard** | **Description** | **Date of Adoption** | **Effect on our Consolidated Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters** |
| *ASU 2021-08 Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers* | The amendments require acquiring entities to apply Topic 606 to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities in a business combination. The amendments in this Update improve comparability for both the recognition and measurement of acquired revenue contracts with customers at the date of, and after, a business combination. The amendments improve comparability after the business combination by providing consistent recognition and measurement guidance for revenue contracts with customers acquired in a business combination and revenue contracts with customers not acquired in a business combination. | January 1, 2023 | No material impact expected |
| *ASU 2022-01 Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Fair Value Hedging—Portfolio Layer Method* | The amendments clarify the accounting for, and promote consistency in, the reporting of hedge basis adjustments applicable to both a single hedged layer and multiple hedged layers as follows:<br>1) An entity is required to maintain basis adjustments in an existing hedge on a closed portfolio basis (that is, not allocated to individual assets).<br>2) An entity is required to immediately recognize and present the basis adjustment associated with the amount of the de-designated layer that was breached in interest income. In addition, an entity is required to disclose that amount and the circumstances that led to the breach.<br>3) An entity is required to disclose the total amount of the basis adjustments in existing hedges as a reconciling amount if other areas of GAAP require the disaggregated disclosure of the amortized cost basis of assets included in the closed portfolio.<br>4) An entity is prohibited from considering basis adjustments in an existing hedge when determining credit losses. | January 1, 2023 | No material impact expected |
| *ASU 2022-02 Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326)* | The amendments eliminate the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors that have adopted the Current Expected Credit Losses (CECL) model and enhance the disclosure requirements for loan refinancing and restructurings made with borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. In addition, the amendments require a public business entity to disclose current-period gross write offs for financing receivables and net investment in leases by year of origination in the vintage disclosures. | January 1, 2023 | No material impact expected |
| *ASU 2022-03 Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions* | The amendments clarify that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. The amendments also clarify that an entity cannot, as a separate unit of account, recognize and measure a contractual sale restriction and require the following disclosures for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions:<br>1. The fair value of equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions reflected in the balance sheet<br>2. The nature and remaining duration of the restriction(s)<br>3. The circumstances that could cause a lapse in the restriction(s). | January 1, 2024 | Under evaluation |
| *ASU 2022-04 Liabilities—Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations* | The amendments require that a buyer in a supplier finance program disclose sufficient information about the program to allow a user of financial statements to understand the program's nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude. To achieve that objective, the buyer should disclose qualitative and quantitative information about its supplier finance programs. | January 1, 2023 | No material impact expected |

**Note 4 - Segments**

During the year ended December 31, 2022 we had a single reportable segment: our operations performed under our dayrate model (which includes rig charters and ancillary services). During the year ended December 31, 2021, we had two operating segments: operations performed under our dayrate model (which includes rig charters and ancillary services) and operations performed under the Integrated Well Services ("IWS") model. IWS operations were performed by our joint venture entities Opex and Akal.

On August 4, 2021, the Company executed a Stock Purchase Agreement for the sale of the Company's 49% interest in each of Opex and Akal, representing the Company's disposal of the IWS operating segment (see Note 7 - Equity Method Investments).

Our Chief Operating Decision Maker (our Board of Directors) reviews financial information provided as an aggregate sum of assets, liabilities and activities that exist to generate cash flows, by our operating segments.

**Note 5 - Contracts with Customers**

*Contract Assets and Liabilities*

When the right to consideration becomes unconditional based on the contractual billing schedule, accrued revenue is recognized. At the point that accrued revenue is billed, trade accounts receivable are recognized. Payment terms on invoice amounts are typically 30 days.

Deferred mobilization, demobilization and contract preparation revenue includes revenues received for rig mobilization as well as preparation and upgrade activities, in addition to demobilization revenues expected to be received upon contract commencement and other lump-sum revenues relating to the firm periods of our contracts. These revenues are allocated to the overall performance obligation and recognized on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the contracts.

---

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

**Note 7 - Equity Method Investments**

During 2019 we entered into a joint venture with Proyectos Globales de Energia y Servicos CME, S.A. DE C.V. ("CME") to provide integrated well services to Petróleos Mexicanos ("Pemex"). This involved Borr Mexico Ventures Limited ("BMV") subscribing to 49% of the equity of Opex Perforadora S.A. de C.V. ("Opex") and Perforadora Profesional AKAL I, SA de CV ("Akal"). CME's wholly owned subsidiary, Operadora Productora y Exploradora Mexicana, S.A. de C.V. ("Operadora") owned 51% of each of Opex and Akal. In addition, we provided five jack-up rigs on bareboat charters to two other joint venture companies, Perfomex and Perfomex II, in which we previously held a 49% interest. Perfomex and Perfomex II provide the jack-up rigs under traditional dayrate drilling and technical services agreements to Opex and Akal.

On August 4, 2021, the Company executed a Stock Purchase Agreement between BMV and Operadora for the sale of the Company's 49% interest in each of Opex and Akal joint ventures, as well as the acquisition of a 2% incremental interest in each of Perfomex and Perfomex II joint ventures. The acquisition was completed on the same date. The Company recognized a $3.6 million gain on disposal of Opex and Akal in "Other non-operating income" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations in the year ended December 31, 2021, as the difference between the cash consideration received of $10.6 million and the carrying value of the equity method investments on the date of disposal of $7.0 million.

Prior to August 4, 2021, Opex and Akal contracted technical support services from BMV, management services from Operadora and well services from specialist well service contractors (including an affiliate of one of our shareholders Schlumberger Limited) and logistics and administration services from Logística y Operaciones OTM, S.A. de C.V, an affiliate of CME. This structure enabled Opex and Akal to provide bundled integrated well services to Pemex. The revenue earned was fixed under each of the Pemex contracts, while Opex and Akal managed the drilling services and related costs on a per well basis. Prior to the sale, we were obligated, as a 49% shareholder, to fund any capital shortfall in Opex or Akal should the Board of Opex or Akal make cash calls to the shareholders under the provisions of the Shareholder Agreements. On the date of sale, the outstanding funding provided to such date of $5.4 million was returned.

Effective August 4, 2021, as we hold a 51% equity ownership in Perfomex and Perfomex II, we have assessed whether the increased investments in Perfomex and Perfomex II joint ventures results in the need to consolidate these entities under US GAAP. The significant judgements are whether the joint ventures are variable interest entities (VIEs) and, if so, whether Borr is the primary beneficiary. We concluded that the joint ventures are VIEs; however, we do not have the power to direct the decisions which most significantly impact the economic performance of the joint ventures. As such, we are not considered to be the primary beneficiary of the variable interest entities and we continue to account for our interests in Perfomex and Perfomex II as equity method investments in accordance with ASC 323, Investment - Equity Method and Joint Ventures and record the investments in "Equity method investments" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Effective October 20, 2022, all five jack-up rigs are provided to Perfomex on bareboat charters, thereby consolidating activities into Perfomex, for Perfomex's provision of traditional dayrate drilling and technical services to Opex. Effective from this date, Perfomex II continues to provide technical services to Opex, in addition to rig management services to external parties.

The below tables set forth the summarized results from these entities on a 100% basis for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020:

Revenue in Opex and Akal is recognized on a percentage of completion basis under the cost input method. The services Opex and Akal deliver to a single customer, Pemex, involve delivering integrated well services with payment upon the completion of each well in the contract. Revenue in Perfomex and Perfomex II is recognized on a day rate basis on contracts with Opex, Akal and Pemex, consistent with our historical revenue recognition policies, with day rate accruing each day as the service is performed. We provided rigs and services to Perfomex and Perfomex II for use in their contracts with Opex and Akal, respectively. Effective October 20, 2022, all five of our rigs are provided to Perfomex for use in its contracts with Opex.

As of December 31, 2022, Perfomex and Perfomex II had $113.9 million of receivables from Opex and Akal, of which $105.1 million was outstanding and $8.8 million was unbilled. As of December 31, 2021, Perfomex and Perfomex II had $86.8 million of receivables from Opex and Akal, of which $70.5 million was outstanding and $16.3 million was unbilled.

As of August 4, 2021, Opex and Akal had $237.1 million in receivables from Pemex, of which $113.7 million were outstanding and $123.4 million were unbilled.

<sup>(1)</sup> As at December 31, 2022, the "Equity method investments" balance in the Consolidated Balance Sheets includes $9.8 million in funding provided by shareholder loans to Perfomex.

<sup>(2)</sup> We previously issued a performance guarantee to Opex for the duration of its contract with Pemex. Management performed a valuation exercise to fair value the guarantee given, utilizing the inferred debt market method and subsequently mapping to a credit score, adjusting for country risk and default probability. A liability of $5.9 million was recognized in "Other liabilities" and added to the "Equity method investments" balance in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Effective August 4, 2021, upon sale of the Company's 49% interest in Opex, the guarantee was terminated, and the associated liability was derecognized.

**Note 10 - Taxation**

Borr Drilling Limited is a Bermuda company not 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. 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 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 loss is comprised of the following by jurisdiction:

|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **For the Years Ended December 31,** | **For the Years Ended December 31,** | **For the Years Ended December 31,** |

| **Total** | **(274.4)** | **(183.3)** | **(301.4)** |

All income tax expense is attributable to foreign jurisdictions and is comprised of the following:

|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **For the Years Ended December 31,** | **For the Years Ended December 31,** | **For the Years Ended December 31,** |

| Change in deferred tax | (2.1) | (0.5) | 1.1 |
| **Total** | **18.4** | **9.7** | **16.2** |

---

Our annual effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2022 was approximately (6.71%), on a pre-tax loss of $274.4 million. Changes in our effective tax rate from period to period are 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/benefit and income/(loss) before taxes. A reconciliation of the Bermuda statutory tax rate to our effective rate is shown below:

| **Deferred tax liabilities** |  |  |
| Deferred tax liabilities | (0.7) |  |
| **Net deferred tax asset** | **2.8** | **0.7** |

---

<sup>(1)</sup> Net deferred tax assets are recognized in "Other non-current assets" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets (see Note 18 - Other Non-Current Assets).

The deferred tax assets related to our net operating losses were primarily generated in the United Kingdom ($58.0 million net operating losses at December 31, 2022) and will not expire. A tax rate change from 19% to 25% (from April 2023) was enacted in the UK during 2021. This increased the gross deferred tax asset by $19.0 million in 2021 but had a nil net impact due to an offsetting valuation allowance. We recognize a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets when it 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.

We conduct business globally and, as a result, we file income tax returns, or are subject to withholding taxes, in various jurisdictions. In the normal course of business we are generally subject to examination by taxation authorities throughout the world, including major jurisdictions in which we operate or used to operate, such as Egypt, The Republic of Congo, Malaysia, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, the United Kingdom, Mexico, and Tanzania.

The following is a reconciliation of the liabilities related to our uncertain tax positions:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| *(In $ millions)* | **2022** | **2021** |
| Unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, at January 1, | 6.2 | 6.2 |
| **Unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, at December 31,** | **6.2** | **6.2** |
| Interest and penalties | 5.1 | 4.6 |
| **Unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties, at December 31,** | **11.3** | **10.8** |

---

The liabilities summarized in the table above are presented within "Other non-current liabilities" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

------

We include, as a component of our income tax provision, potential interest and penalties related to liabilities for our unrecognized tax benefits within our global operations. Interest and penalties resulted in an income tax expense of $0.5 million, $0.4 million and $0.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

As of December 31, 2022, the liabilities related to our unrecognized tax benefits, including estimated accrued interest and penalties, totaled $11.3 million, and if recognized, would reduce our income tax provision by $11.3 million. As of December 31, 2021, the liabilities related to our unrecognized tax benefits, including estimated accrued interest and penalties, totaled $10.8 million, and if recognized, would reduce our income tax provision by $10.8 million. It is reasonably possible that our existing liabilities related to our unrecognized tax benefits may increase or decrease in the next twelve months primarily due to the progression of open audits or the expiration of statutes of limitation. While the amounts provided are an estimate and subject to revision, we are not aware of any circumstances currently that would result in a material increase to the amounts provided for the risks identified at this time.

**Note 11 - Loss per Share**

The computation of basic loss per share ("EPS") is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.

In the quarter ended June 30, 2022, the Company entered into a letter of intent ("LOI") for the sale of three newbuilding jack-up rigs for $320.0 million, subject to various conditions, including entering into an agreement to give effect to the LOI. As a result of the potential sale of the three newbuilding rigs, we performed an impairment assessment and concluded that, based on management's best estimate as at June 30, 2022 of the most likely outcome, an impairment charge of $124.4 million was required to reflect the difference between the best estimate of the sales amount less costs to sell and the sum of the current capitalized cost and the expected cost to complete (level 3 fair value). In the quarter ended September 30, 2022, we entered into a sales agreement, giving effect to the previously executed LOI. The sales agreement was conditional upon various closing conditions, and upon closing, the final proceeds from the sale would be used to pay the delivery installments of the three newbuilding jack-up rigs. The Company concluded that these assets met the criteria for assets held for sale at September 30, 2022. During the quarter ended

------

December 31, 2022, the sale of the three rigs was agreed and the Company recognized a gain on sale of $3.7 million (see Note 6 - Gain on Disposals).

The calculation of the impairment charge recognized during the year ended December 31, 2022 is as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| *(In $ millions)* |  |
| Three newbuildings considered in the LOI carrying value | 132.0 |
| Estimated cost to complete and respective onerous provision, net | 312.4 |
| Total | 444.4 |
| Potential sale price | 320.0 |
| Impairment charge | (124.4) |
| **Carrying Value** | 7.6 |

---

The remaining contracted installments as of December 31, 2022, payable on delivery, for the Keppel newbuilds acquired in 2017 are approximately $294.8 million (approximately $448.2 million as of December 31, 2021). See Note 23 - Commitments and Contingencies**.**

No rigs were delivered to the Company in either of the years ended December 31, 2022 or 2021.

**Note 16 - Jack-Up Rigs, net**

Set forth below is the carrying value of our jack-up rigs:

---

Accumulated depreciation related to jack-up rigs as at December 31, 2022 is $482.6 million (as at December 31, 2021 is $391.1 million).

*Depreciation of property, plant and equipment*

In addition to the depreciation in the above table, the Company recognized depreciation of $1.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 related to property, plant and equipment ($2.0 million in 2021 and $1.9 million in 2020). Accumulated depreciation related to property, plant and equipment as at December 31, 2022 is $5.2 million (as at December 31, 2021 is $6.5 million).

*Disposals*

During the quarter ended September 30, 2022, the Company concluded that the jack-up rig "Gyme" met the criteria for assets held for sale as at September 30, 2022. During October 2022, the Company entered into an agreement to sell the "Gyme" for $120.0 million, pursuant to an undertaking by the Company under its most recent refinancing with PPL Shipyard which was completed in October 2022. The sale of the "Gyme" was completed during the quarter ended December 31, 2022 and the Company recognized a loss on sale of $0.2 million (see Note 6 - Gain on Disposals). The proceeds from the sale were applied to all outstanding amounts owed on the rig, and excess amounts were applied to accrued interest for the eight other rigs financed by PPL. This disposal was within our dayrate segment.

*Impairment* 

The Company recognized impairment losses for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **For the Years Ended December 31,** | **For the Years Ended December 31,** | **For the Years Ended December 31,** |
| *(In $ millions)* | **2022** | **2021** | **2020** |
| Gyme <sup>(1)</sup> | 7.3 |  |  |
| Atla <sup>(2)</sup> |  |  | 30.9 |
| Balder <sup>(2</sup> |  |  | 27.8 |
| MSS1 <sup>(3)</sup> |  |  | 18.4 |
| **Total** | **7.3** | **—** | **77.1** |

---

<sup>(1)</sup> During the year ended December 31, 2022, we recognized an impairment loss of $7.3 million for the jack-up rig "Gyme" as the rig was written down to its expected sales value.

<sup>(2)</sup> During the year ended December 31, 2020, as a result of the coronavirus global pandemic, an indicator of impairment was identified due to the negative impact on the macro-economic environment, which lead to a fall in global oil demand. As such, management performed a fleet wide recoverability assessment which indicated that our estimated undiscounted cash flows for jack-up rigs "Atla" and "Balder" were insufficient to recover the carrying value of the cold stacked rigs. As such, during the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $30.9 million relating to "Atla" and $27.0 million relating to "Balder". In addition, a further impairment loss of $0.8 million was recognized for "Balder" when the rig was classified as held for sale, as the estimated net sale price was below its carrying value.

<sup>(3)</sup> During the year ended December 31, 2020, we recognized an impairment loss of $18.4 million for the semi-submersible "MSS1" as the rig was written down to its expected sales value.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, we considered whether indicators of impairment existed that could suggest that the carrying amounts of our jack-up rigs may not be recoverable as of December 31, 2022. We concluded that impairment triggers existed and performed a recoverability assessment across the consolidated jack-up fleet, however no impairment loss was recognized during the year ended December 31, 2022 (aside from the $7.3 million impairment loss related to the rig "Gyme"), as the estimated undiscounted net cash flows were higher than the carrying amounts of our jack-up rigs. We concluded that a severe, yet plausible scenario, with a 10% decrease in day rates and utilization used when estimating undiscounted cash flows would not result in a shortfall between the undiscounted cash flow and carrying amount for our jack-up drilling rigs.

We will continue to monitor developments in the markets in which we operate for indications that the carrying values of our long-lived assets may not be recoverable.

**Note 17 - Leases**

We have various operating leases, principally for office space, storage facilities and operating equipment, which expire at various dates. In 2018, we deemed two of our leases as onerous leases as a result of change in our operating strategy, one of which expired during the year ended December 31, 2021 (our Beverwijk office lease) and one of which expired on March 1, 2022 (our Houston office lease). Upon adoption of the leasing standard, for these operating leases, we offset the right-of-use asset of the lease by the existing carrying amount of the onerous lease liability previously recorded on the date of adoption.

***Our Term Loan Credit Facilities***

In the second half of 2022, we refinanced our senior secured credit facilities, maturing in 2023 and 2025. Following the successful equity raise of $274.9 million of gross proceeds in August 2022 (the "August 2022 Equity Offering") and the signing and full drawdown of our $150.0 million New DNB Facility, we repaid in full the Syndicated Facility and the New Bridge Facility. Concurrently, we refinanced our shipyard delivery financing arrangement with PPL and our Hayfin Facility to mature in 2025; deferred the delivery dates for our remaining two newbuild jack-up rigs to 2025 and agreed to sell to a third party three newbuild jack-up rigs which the Company previously agreed to purchase from Keppel.

Set forth below is a description of our financing loan facilities.

*Hayfin Facility*

<u>Original Agreement</u>

On June 25, 2019, we entered into a $195 million senior secured term loan facility agreement with funds managed by Hayfin Capital Management LLP, as lenders, among others. Our wholly-owned subsidiary, Borr Midgard Assets Ltd., is the borrower under the Hayfin Facility, which is guaranteed by Borr Drilling Limited and secured by mortgages over three of our jack-up rigs, pledges over shares of and related guarantees from certain of our rig-owning subsidiaries who provide this security as owners of the mortgaged rigs and general assignments of rig insurances, certain rig earnings, charters, intra-group loans and management agreements from our related rig-owning subsidiaries. Our Hayfin Facility was originally due to mature in June 2022 and bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus a specified margin. The Hayfin Facility agreement includes a make-whole obligation if repaid during the first twelve months and, thereafter, a fee for early prepayment and final repayment.

Our Hayfin Facility agreement contains various financial covenants, including a requirement that we maintain minimum liquidity equal to three months' interest on the facility for each jack-up rig providing security that are not actively operating under an approved drilling contract (as defined in the Hayfin Facility agreement). Our Hayfin Facility agreement also contains a loan to value covenant, linked to a minimum security value clause, initially requiring that the market value of our rigs at all times should cover at least 175% of the aggregate outstanding facility amount.

The facility also contains various covenants which restrict distributions of cash from Borr Midgard Holding Ltd., Borr Midgard Assets Ltd. and our related rig-owning subsidiaries to us or our other subsidiaries and the management fees payable to Borr Midgard Assets Ltd.'s directly-owned subsidiaries. Our Hayfin Facility agreement also contains customary events of default which include any change of control, non-payment, cross default, breach of covenants, insolvency and changes which have or are likely to have a material adverse effect on the relevant obligor's business, ability to perform its obligations under the Hayfin Facility agreement or security documents or jeopardize the security provided thereunder. If there is an event of default, the lenders under our Hayfin Facility may have the right to declare a default or may seek to negotiate changes to the covenants and/or require additional security as a condition of not doing so. The lenders under our Hayfin Facility may also require replacement or additional security if the market value of the jack-up rigs over which security is provided is insufficient to meet our market value-to-loan covenant.

<u>June 2020 Amendments</u>

In June 2020, Hayfin agreed to certain amendments to the facility, including relaxing some restrictions related to transfer of cash within the ring fenced structure and allowing the Company to utilize minimum liquidity equal to three months' interest ($2.4 million at the time) in the Ring Fenced Entities to pay interest under the facility. The restricted cash was originally required to be replenished on January 1, 2021, however following loan agreement amendments in January 2021 this date was amended to October 1, 2021. As at December 31, 2021, we held $1.1 million of restricted cash relating to this facility (see Note 12 - Restricted Cash). In January 2021, this value-to-loan covenant threshold was lowered from 175% to 140%.

<u>January 2021 Amendments</u>

In January 2021, Hayfin agreed to certain amendments to the facility pursuant to which the maturity date of this facility was amended from June 2022 to January 2023. Also included in the January 2021 amendments were purchase options for the benefit of Hayfin, in respect of the "Thor" and "Skald", unless the rigs were activated by December 31, 2021, in order to repay the secured debt on the relevant rig, with the right for the company to repay/refinance the loan and retain the rig within a certain time period. As at December 31, 2021, the "Skald" was activated and operating, and the "Thor" was undergoing activation. In December 2021, the date at which the "Thor" had to complete its activation was amended to February 28, 2022, which was further

------

amended as described below. Also as part of these amendments, limitations were also placed on payments to other creditors, other than certain permitted payments.

<u>March 2022 Consent and Amendment</u>

In March 2022, the Company entered into a "Consent and Amendment letter" with Hayfin whereby Hayfin consented to the Company entering into agreements with the shipyards to defer debt maturities and delivery installments until 2025 and make other amendments to the shipyard facilities, including changing the payments in 2022 and 2023. The Consent and Amendment letter introduced a Financial Covenant related to the Book Equity Ratio of the Company, similar to that of the Syndicated Senior Secured Credit Facilities. Moreover, this Consent and Amendment letter amended the date by which the "Thor" had to complete its activation from February 28, 2022, to March 31, 2022 and subsequently, Hayfin agreed to further extend such date to April 30, 2022, by which date the activation was completed and "Thor" entered into operations on July 15, 2022.

<u>October 2022 Amendment</u>

In October 2022, Hayfin agreed to certain amendments to the facility pursuant to which the maturity date of this facility was extended from January 2023 to January 2025 subject to an extension fee and a $45.0 million repayment in the fourth quarter of 2022, of which $30.0 million was paid in October 2022, using proceeds from the August 2022 Equity Offering and $15.0 million was paid in December 2022.

Principal repayments of $20.0 million are due in 2023 and $30.0 million are due in 2024, in quarterly installments. The facility bears interest at SOFR plus a margin and includes an exit/repayment fee. In addition, our Hayfin facility contains a "most favored nation" clause which provides that our financial covenants shall be amended to reflect any more lender-favorable covenants that we agree in any other loan agreement as well as a clause that restricts certain amendments to other secured debt facilities including amendments that would increase principal amount, payments or margins or bring forward payment dates. The Hayfin Facility includes financial covenants in respect of minimum Group Cash and minimum book equity ratio at the same level as the DNB Facility (as described below).

As of December 31, 2022, jack-up rigs "Saga", "Skald" and "Thor" were pledged as collateral for the Hayfin Loan Facility. Total book value of the encumbered rigs was $383.6 million as of December 31, 2022.

As of December 31, 2022, the facility was fully drawn and we had $154.0 million outstanding under our Hayfin Facility, which included a deferred amendment fee of $2.0 million.

As at December 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with the requirements of its covenants under the Hayfin facility.

*New DNB Facility*

In October 2022, we entered into a new $150.0 million secured loan facility which matures in October 2025. The proceeds of this facility were used, together with a portion of the proceeds of our August 2022 Equity Offering, to repay our previous Syndicated Facility and New Bridge Facility under which we had an aggregate of $310.5 million principal outstanding as of September 30, 2022.

Our obligations under this new facility are secured by pledges of five jack-up rigs ("Idun", "Norve", "Prospector 1", "Prospector 5" and "Mist") and pledges over shares of and related guarantees from certain of our rig-owning subsidiaries which provide this security as owners of the pledged rigs and general assignments of rig insurances, certain rig earnings, charters, intra-group loans and management agreements from our related rig-owning subsidiaries. The pledged rigs constitute five of the eight rigs which had secured our previous Syndicated Facility and New Bridge Facility.

The New DNB Facility has quarterly repayments of $5.0 million and bears interest at three month compounded SOFR plus a margin. The facility also includes an exit/repayment fee.

The New DNB Facility agreement contains various restrictions, including, among others, restrictions on incurring additional indebtedness and entering into joint ventures; restrictions on dividends and investments and repurchases of our shares, restrictions on providing financial support, restrictions on disposals of assets, a negative pledge over certain assets and restrictions on new secured debt (subject to exceptions, including a basket for up to $150.0 million of new secured financing secured by our three unencumbered rigs).

------

Furthermore, a change of control event occurs if any person other than Mr. Tor Olav Trøim or persons collaborating or acting in concert with him obtain more than 30% of the voting power in the Company or control the appointment of the board, unless such new controlling shareholders are acceptable to all the lenders. Our New DNB Facility agreement contains customary events of default which include non-payment, cross default, breach of covenants, insolvency and changes which have or are likely to have a material adverse effect on the relevant obligor's business, ability to perform its obligations under the New DNB Facility agreement or security documents or jeopardize the security provided thereunder. In addition, our New DNB Facility contains a "most favored nation" clause which provides that our financial covenants shall be amended to reflect any more lender favorable covenants that we agree in any other loan agreement as well as a clause that restricts certain amendments to other secured debt facilities including amendments that would increase principal amount, payments or margins or bring forward payment dates. There are also limitations on payments to other creditors, other than certain permitted payments.

The New DNB Facility includes certain financial covenants, including a requirement that we maintain: (i) through December 31, 2023, minimum "Parent Cash" (cash held by Borr Drilling Ltd or a subsidiary and which can be paid to Borr Drilling Ltd without restriction, including upon an event of default) of not less than $10 million and minimum "Group Cash" (cash held by any member of the Borr group excluding cash in pledged bank accounts which cannot be freely transferred to Borr Drilling Ltd prior to an event of default) of not less than $15 million, in each case through December 31, 2023; from January 1 to December 31, 2024, minimum Parent Cash of not less than $50 million and from January 1 to October 5, 2025, minimum Parent Cash of not less than $75 million; (ii) a minimum book equity ratio until December 31, 2023, equal to or higher than 20%; from January 1 to December 31 2024, equal to or higher than 25% and from January 1, 2025 to maturity, equal to or higher than 35%; (iii) a positive working capital balance; and (iv) aggregate market value of the pledged rigs of at least 175% of the amount of loans outstanding under the facility.

As at December 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with the requirements of its covenants under the DNB facility.

As of December 31, 2022, "Mist", "Idun", "Prospector 1", "Prospector 5" and "Norve" were pledged as collateral for the DNB Facility. Total book value of the encumbered rig was $443.6 million as of December 31, 2022.

As of December 31, 2022, the facility was fully drawn and we had $150.0 million outstanding under our $150 million New DNB Facility due in 2025.

***Our Delivery Financing Arrangements***

*PPL Newbuild Financing*

<u>Original Agreements</u>

In October 2017, we agreed to acquire nine premium "Pacific Class 400" jack-up rigs from PPL (the "PPL Rigs"). In connection with delivery of the PPL Rigs, our rig-owning subsidiaries as buyers of the PPL Rigs agreed to accept delivery financing for a portion of the purchase price equal to $87.0 million per jack-up rig (the "PPL Financing").

The PPL Financing for each PPL Rig is an interest-bearing secured seller's credit, with the borrower being either a rig owner in which case its obligations are guaranteed by the Company, or the borrower being the Company, with the rig owner as guarantor and provider of security in its assets. Each seller's credit originally matured on the date falling 60 months from the delivery date of the respective PPL Rig, however in January 2021, amendments were made to amend maturity dates for the loans to May 2023. The PPL Financing bears interest at three-month USD LIBOR plus a variable marginal rate.

The PPL Financing is cross-collateralized and secured by a mortgage on each PPL Rig and an assignment of the insurances in respect of each PPL Rig. The PPL Financing also contains various covenants and the events of default include non-payment, cross default, breach of covenants, insolvency and changes which have or are likely to have a material adverse effect on the relevant obligor's business, ability to perform its obligations under the PPL Financing agreements or security documents, or jeopardize the security. In addition, each rig-owning subsidiary is subject to certain covenants.

Accrued, unpaid interest is guaranteed by Borr IHC Limited, an intermediate holding company which was incorporated on June 29, 2020 (in connection with the June 2020 Amendments, as discussed below). Borr IHC Limited is a subsidiary of the Company and has acquired the shares in the Company's other subsidiaries with the exception of Borr Jack-Up XVI. The security for the

------

PPL Financing also includes share security over the owners of the rigs which were delivered by PPL with finance under the PPL Financing agreements.

<u>June 2020 Amendments</u>

In June 2020, a substantial amount of cash payments of interest was deferred in relation to these rigs for the period from the first quarter of 2020 to the fourth quarter of 2021, and accrued interest became payable from the first quarter of 2022, except for $1 million becoming payable per quarter starting in the first quarter of 2020.

<u>January 2021 Amendments</u>

In January 2021, further amendments were made to the terms of various of the covenants, and repayment dates were amended to occur in May 2023. Accrued interest payments were amended to March 2023, however an interim payment schedule was introduced requiring a total of $6 million and $12 million to be paid in 2021 and 2022, respectively. Minimum liquidity covenant levels were also amended to: $5 million until December 31, 2021; $10 million from and including January 1, 2022 to and including June 30, 2022; $15 million from and including July 1, 2022. Value to loan covenants were also amended, requiring additional security in the event that the value of any rigs fall below $70 million in 2021, $75 million in 2022 or $80 million thereafter. Limitations were also placed on payments to other creditors, other than certain permitted payments.

<u>October 2022 Amendments</u> 

We amended the terms of this agreement in October 2022, which included (i) refinancing the maturities from 2023 to 2025, (ii) revised payments of capitalized interest in 2022 of $37.9 million (of which $13.9 million was paid on completion in October 2022, and $24.0 million was paid in December 2022), payments in March 2023 of $20.0 million to be applied to repay a portion of capitalized interest and quarterly repayments of the remaining capitalized interest outstanding as of March 2023, with 50% payable in the last three quarters of 2023 and 50% payable quarterly in 2024, (iii) payment of an extension fee of $7.5 million which was paid in August 2022, (iv) repayment of principal of $60 million in 2023 and $64.0 million in 2024, (v) applying 20% of future equity offerings to pay down this facility, to be applied first to accrued interest, and (vi) the sale by November 15, 2022 of the rig "Gyme".

On November 15, 2022, we completed the sale of "Gyme" for $120.0 million. The net proceeds from the sale were applied to repay principal, back-end fee and accrued interest for the rig, and any excess amounts received by PPL were applied to the capitalized interest for the eight other rigs which are financed by PPL. Prior to the sale of "Gyme", these facilities were secured by nine rigs, following such sale the facilities are secured by eight rigs.

As of December 31, 2022, "Galar", "Gerd", "Gersemi", "Grid", "Gunnlod", "Groa", "Natt" and "Njord" were pledged as collateral for the PPL financing. Total book value for the encumbered rigs was $1,084.0 million as of December 31, 2022.

As of December 31, 2022, we had $669.6 million principal amount of debt (2021: $753.3 million) outstanding under the PPL Financing and were in compliance with the covenants and our obligations under the PPL Financing agreements.

*Keppel Newbuild Financing*

<u>Original Agreement</u>

In May 2018, we agreed to acquire five premium KFELS B class jack-up rigs, three completed and two under construction from Keppel (the "Keppel H-Rigs"). As of December 31, 2021, two Keppel H-Rigs ("Huldra" and "Heidrun") remained to be delivered. In connection with delivery of the Keppel H-Rigs, Keppel had agreed to extend delivery financing for a portion of the purchase price equal to $90.9 million (to be referred to as the "H-Rig Financing"). Separately from the H-Rigs Financing described below, we may exercise an option to accept delivery financing from Keppel with respect to two ("Vale" and "Var") of the three additional newbuild jack-up rigs, acquired in connection with the Transocean Transaction. We will, prior to delivery of each jack-up rig from Keppel, consider available alternatives to such financing.

The H-Rig Keppel Financing for each Keppel H-Rig is an interest-bearing secured facility from the lender thereunder (an affiliate of Keppel), guaranteed by the Company which will be made available on delivery of each rig. Maturity dates were initially 60 months from the delivery date of each respective Keppel H-Rig, however in January 2021, amendments were made to extend maturity dates for the loans by one year, and for interest payment dates to be deferred by one year.

------

The first interest payment of the H-Rig loans were originally due to be accrued and paid on the date falling on the third anniversary of each loan, and thereafter to be paid in quarterly payments until repayment. In January 2021, amendments were made to the interest for the fourth year to be paid on the fourth anniversary of each loan.

The H-Rig Financing for each respective Keppel Rig will be secured by a mortgage on such Keppel Rig, assignments of earnings and insurances and a charge over the shares of the rig-owning subsidiary which holds each such Keppel Rig. The H-Rig Financing agreements also contain a loan to value clause requiring that the market value of our rigs shall be at least 130% of the loan and also contains various covenants, including, among others, restrictions on incurring additional indebtedness. Each Keppel Financing agreement also contains events of default which include non-payment, cross default, breach of covenants, insolvency and changes which have or are likely to have a material adverse effect on the relevant obligor's business, ability to perform its obligations under the Keppel Financing agreements or security documents, or jeopardize the security.

As of December 31, 2022, Arabia I (formerly Heimdal), Arabia II (formerly Hermod) and Hild were pledged as collateral for the Keppel financing. Total book value for the encumbered rigs was $484.5 million as of December 31, 2022.

As of December 31, 2022, we had $259.2 million (2021: $259.2 million) in Keppel principal Financing outstanding and were in compliance with our covenants and obligations under the Keppel Financing agreements.

*Undelivered Keppel Newbuild Financing*

<u>June 2020 Amendments</u>

In June 2020, we agreed to defer the delivery of two of the Keppel Rigs ("Huldra" and "Heidrun") to the third quarter of 2022 and three of the newbuild jack-up rigs acquired in connection with the Transocean Transaction to June 30, 2022 ("Tivar") and the third quarter of 2022 ("Vale" and "Var"). We also agreed to pay certain holding and other costs for each of the five rigs in respect of the period from the original delivery dates to the revised delivery dates.

<u>January 2021 Amendments</u>

In January 2021, we agreed with Keppel to amendments to these agreements including for purchase price installments, holding costs and cost cover payments in respect of the five undelivered rigs to be deferred until 2023, other than interim payments totaling $6 million in 2021, and $12 million in 2022. We also agreed to postpone deliveries to May 2023 ("Tivar"), July 2023 ("Vale"), September 2023 ("Var"), October 2023 ("Huldra") and December 2023 ("Heidrun"). For the undelivered rigs, Keppel was given the right to terminate newbuilding contracts with no refund or other compensation to the rig owner(s) if it receives an offer form a third party, unless Borr purchases the rigs at the contract price within a certain time period. Limitations were also placed on payments to other creditors, other than certain permitted payments.

<u>Sale of "Tivar", "Huldra" and "Heidrun"</u>

In June 2022, we entered into an agreement to sell the three newbuild rigs "Tivar", "Huldra" and "Heidrun", all under construction at Keppel FELS shipyard for a total consideration of $320 million, which will be used to pay the delivery installments of the rigs. Following the agreement to sell the rigs, the Company will not utilize the loan facility committed for "Huldra" and "Heidrun".

<u>October 2022 Amendments</u> 

We had agreements to purchase five rigs from Keppel on various dates in 2023 for a total remaining purchase price of $624.0 million, plus costs accrued for deferring delivery dates of the rigs. In October 2022, we amended these agreements to provide for the sale of three rigs under construction to a third party for total consideration of $320.0 million under a separate agreement with a third party buyer to be negotiated and documented separately, to be used to pay the delivery installments of the three rigs. Under the terms of the amendment, the delivery dates for the three rigs to be sold was the fourth quarter of 2022, May 2023, and July 2023, for "Tivar", "Huldra" and "Heidrun" respectively. The Company has agreed to pay $32.6 million to Keppel to be equally split per rig and paid on the delivery date for each rig in addition to the $320 million sale price to be paid by the third party buyers, which represents the balancing amounts of the Company's commitment to Keppel for the three rigs. "Tivar" was delivered to the third party buyer in the fourth quarter of 2022 and the Company paid $10.9 million to Keppel as part of the delivery of the rig, which was one third of the $32.6 million that was agreed to be paid.

------

The amendment to the Keppel agreement provides for the Company to purchase the other two undelivered rigs from Keppel in July 2025 (for "Vale") and September 2025 (for "Var") for an aggregate purchase price of $147.4 million per rig, of which Keppel has committed to finance $130 million for each rig, with a four year maturity, with repayments beginning on the third year of the loan until maturity. In addition, the Company is liable to pay the cost for deferral of delivery of these two rigs at 7.5% per annum to be paid 50% in 2023 and 50% in 2024.

*Interest*

The average interest rate for our interest-bearing debt (excluding our convertible bonds) was 7.32% for the year ended December 31, 2022 (2021: 4.85%). The average margin of our interest-bearing Financing Arrangements is calculated as the weighted average of the forecasted outstanding loan balance and margin, and excludes our convertible bonds.

**Note 23 - Commitments and Contingencies**

**Transocean Transaction**

On March 15, 2017, the Company entered into an agreement and a signed letter of intent to acquire fifteen high specification jack-up drilling rigs from Transocean Inc ("Transocean"). The transaction consisted of Transocean's entire jack-up fleet, comprising eight rig owning companies in Transocean's fleet and five newbuildings under construction at Keppels Fels Limited, Singapore.

Of the five newbuildings acquired in connection with the Transocean Transaction, as of December 31, 2022 two rigs have been delivered ("Saga", "Skald") in 2018, one was sold ("Tivar") in 2022 and two remain under construction ("Vale" and "Var"). We have an option to accept delivery financing from Keppel with respect to "Vale" and "Var". In June 2020, we agreed to defer the delivery for these two rigs to the third quarter of 2022. In January 2021, we agreed to further defer delivery dates to the third quarter of 2023 and in October 2022, we agreed to defer delivery to the second and third quarter of 2025. The remaining contracted installments for these two rigs under construction, payable on delivery are approximately $294.8 million as of December 31, 2022 ($448.2 million as of December 31, 2021 for three rigs under construction).

**Acquisition of Keppel Rigs**

In May 2018, the Company signed a master agreement to acquire five premium newbuild jack-up drilling rigs from Keppel FELS Limited. In October 2019, January 2020 and April 2020 we took delivery of the new jack-up rigs "Hermod", "Heimdal" and "Hild", respectively. In 2022 the delivery dates of the two remaining rigs were amended to 2023 and subsequently, the rigs "Huldra" and "Heidrun" were sold.

*Performance Stock Units*

Pursuant to the Long Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP"), we granted 500,000 Performance Stock Units ("PSUs") to our Chief Executive Officer during the year ended December 31, 2022. The PSUs will vest in full on September 1, 2025 depending on certain performance criteria linked to the closing share price. Pay out of the award is subject to reaching $10.00 per share on 75% of the days in the third quarter of 2025, prior to September 1, 2025.

PSUs expense for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $0.1 million.

**Note 25 - Pensions**

*Defined Benefit Plans*

As part of the Paragon acquisition, on March 29, 2018, the Company acquired two defined benefit pension plans.

As of December 31, 2022, the Company sponsored two non-U.S. noncontributory defined benefit pension plans, the Paragon Offshore Enterprise Ltd and the Paragon Offshore Nederland B.V. pension plans, which cover certain Europe-based salaried employees. As of January 1, 2017, all active employees under the defined benefit pension plans were transferred to a defined contribution pension plan related to their future service. The accrued benefits under the defined benefit plans were frozen and all employees became deferred members.

As of December 31, 2022, assets of the Paragon Offshore Enterprise Ltd and Paragon Offshore Nederland B.V. pension plans were invested in instruments that are similar in form to a guaranteed insurance contract. The plan assets are based on surrender values, and represent the present value of the insured benefits. Surrender values are calculated based on the Dutch Central Bank interest curve. This yield curve is based on inter-bank swap rates. There are no observable market values for the assets (Level 3); however, the amounts listed as plan assets were materially similar to the anticipated benefit obligations under the plans.

As of December 31, 2022, our pension obligations represented an aggregate liability of $106.9 million and an aggregate asset of $106.9 million, representing the funded status of the plans. In the year ended December 31, 2022, aggregate periodic benefit costs showed an interest cost of $0.7 million and an expected negative return on plan assets of $0.7 million. Our defined benefit pension plans are recorded at fair value.

------

A reconciliation of the changes in projected benefit obligations ("PBO") for our pension plans are as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **As of December 31,** | **As of December 31,** |
| *(In $ millions)* | **2022** | **2021** |

---

Both plans were fully funded as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and as such, no amounts are recognized in our Consolidated Statements of Operations as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Benefit cost includes the following components:

---

|:---|:---|:---|
| | **For the Years Ended December 31,** | **For the Years Ended December 31,** |
| *(In $ millions)* | **2022** | **2021** |
| Interest cost | 0.7 | (0.2) |
| Expected return on plan assets | (0.7) | 0.2 |
| **Net benefit cost** | **—** | **—** |

---

No benefit cost was recognized in our Consolidated Statement of Operations during 2022 and 2021.

*Defined Benefit Plans – Key Assumptions*

The key assumptions for the plans are summarized below:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **As of December 31,** | **As of December 31,** |
| **Weighted Average Assumptions Used to Determine Benefit Obligations** | **2022** | **2021** |
| Discount rate | 2.54% to 2.93%  | 0.39% to 0.43% |

---

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **For the Years Ended December 31,** | **For the Years Ended December 31,** |
| **Weighted Average Assumptions Used to Determine Net Periodic Benefit Cost** | **2022** | **2021** |
| Discount rate | 2.54% to 2.93% | 0.39% to 0.43% |
| Expected long-term return on plan assets | 2.54% to 2.93% | 0.39% to 0.43% |

---

The discount rates used to calculate the net present value of future benefit obligations are determined by using a yield curve of high-quality bond portfolios with an average maturity approximating that of the liabilities.

The assets are based on the surrender value of vested benefits within the Nationale Nederlanden contract. This value is based on the projected future cash flows discounted with a (contractually specified) interest rate term structure (spot rates by term). The single interest equivalent of this interest rate term structure has been set as the expected return on plan assets.

------

*Defined Benefit Plans – Cash Flows*

No contributions were made to the plans in 2022 or 2021. The Company does not expect to make contributions to the plan in the next year.

The following table summarizes the benefit payments at December 31, 2022 estimated to be paid within the next ten years by the issuer of the guaranteed insurance contract:

---

| | | | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | | **Payments by Period** | **Payments by Period** | **Payments by Period** | **Payments by Period** | **Payments by Period** | **Payments by Period** |
| | **Total** | **2023** | **2024** | **2025** | **2026** | **2027** | **Five Years Thereafter** |
| **Estimated benefit payments** | 33.3 | 2.1 | 2.4 | 2.7 | 3.0 | 3.2 | 19.9 |

---

*Defined Contribution Plans*

The Company operates a number of defined contribution plans, allowing employees to make tax-deferred contributions to the plans. Under these plans the Company matches contributions up to certain defined percentages, depending on the plan. Matching contributions totaled $2.4 million, $1.3 million and $1.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 respectively.

**Note 26 - Financial Instruments**

*Concentration of credit risk*

There is a concentration of credit risk with respect to cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash to the extent that substantially all of the amounts are carried with DNB Bank ASA, Saudi-British Bank and Citibank, however we believe this risk is remote, as they are established and reputable establishments with no prior history of default.

*Interest rate risk*

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk related to the SOFR floating-rate portion of debts under our existing financing arrangements. There is a risk that SOFR rate fluctuations will have a negative effect on the value of our cash flows. The Company is exposed to changes in long-term market interest rates if and when maturing debt is refinanced with new debt.

In certain situations, the Company may enter into financial instruments to reduce the risk associated with fluctuations in interest rates. The Company is not engaged in derivative transactions for speculative or trading purposes and has not entered into derivative agreements to mitigate the risk of these fluctuations.

*Foreign exchange risk management*

The majority of the Company's gross earnings are receivable in U.S dollars. The majority of our transactions, assets and liabilities are denominated in U.S. dollars, our functional currency, however, we incur certain expenditures in other currencies. There is a risk that currency fluctuations, primarily relative to the U.S. dollar will have a negative effect on the value of our cash flows. The Company has not entered into derivative agreements to mitigate the risk of these fluctuations.

*Supplier risk*

A supplier risk exists in relation to our rigs undergoing construction with Keppel, however, we believe this risk is remote as Keppel are global leaders in the rig and shipbuilding sectors. Failure to complete the construction of any newbuilding on time may result in the delay, renegotiation or cancellation of employment contracts secured for the newbuildings. Further, significant delays in the delivery of the newbuildings could have a negative impact on the Company's reputation and customer relationships. The Company could also be exposed to contractual penalties for failure to commence operations in a timely manner which could adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

------

*Concentration of financing risk*

There is a concentration of financing risk with respect to our long-term debt to the extent that a substantial amount of our long-term debt is carried or will be carried by Keppel and PPL in the form of shipyard financing. We believe the counterparties to be sound financial institutions, therefore, we believe this risk is remote.

**Fair values of financial instruments**

The carrying value and estimated fair value of the Company's cash and financial instruments were as follows:

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | | **As of December 31, 2022** | **As of December 31, 2022** | **As of December 31, 2021** | **As of December 31, 2021** |

| Long-term debt <sup>(3)</sup>  | 2 |  |  | 173.3 | 350.0 |

---

<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 deferred finance charges and effective interest rate adjustments.

<sup>(3)</sup> This relates to our 3.875% Convertible Bond due in 2023 which is fair valued using observable market-based inputs.

***Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis***

As at June 30, 2022, the Company measured three newbuildings, "Tivar", "Huldra" and "Heidrun", at a combined fair value of $7.6 million, which was determined using level 3 inputs. As a result of the potential sale of the three newbuilding rigs, the fair value was measured as the best estimate of the sales amount less costs to sell and the sum of the current capitalized cost and the expected cost to complete. The newbuildings were classified as held for sale at September 30, 2022 and subsequently in December 2022 the sale of the three rigs was agreed (see Note 15 - Newbuildings).

As at September 30, 2022, the Company measured the jack-up rig "Gyme" at a fair value of $119.7 million and classified the "Gyme" as held for sale. The fair value was based on the estimated fair value less cost to sell. The rig was subsequently sold in December 2022 (see Note 16 - Jack-Up Rigs, net).

------

**Note 27 - 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 contract 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 to Opex and Akal, respectively. This structure enabled Opex and Akal to provide bundled integrated well services to Pemex. Effective October 20, 2022, we provide all five rigs on a bareboat basis to Perfomex, to service its contracts with Opex. The bareboat revenue from these contracts is recognized as "Related party revenue" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The potential revenue earned by Opex and Akal was fixed under each of the Pemex contracts, while Opex and Akal managed the drilling services and related costs on a per well basis. The revenue from these contracts was also recognized as "Related party revenue" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

On August 4, 2021, the Company executed a Stock Purchase Agreement between BMV and Operadora for the sale of the Company's 49% interest in each of the Opex and Akal joint ventures, as well as the acquisition of a 2% incremental interest in each of Perfomex and Perfomex II joint ventures. The sale was completed on the same date and on this date Opex and Akal ceased to be a related parties. Until their sale, as a 49% shareholder we were required to fund any capital shortfall in Opex or Akal should the Board of Opex or Akal make cash calls to the shareholders under the provisions of the Shareholders Agreement (see Note 7 - Equity Method Investments).

Management services revenue and bareboat revenues from our related parties for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 consisted of the following:

**Note 29 - Subsequent Events**

*Completion of Unsecured Convertible Bonds and Secured Bonds Offering*

In February 2023, we raised $250.0 million gross proceeds through the issuance of the New Convertible Bonds, due in February 2028 and $150.0 million gross proceeds through the issuance of Senior Secured Bonds, due in February 2026. The New Convertible Bonds are convertible into common shares with a conversion price of $7.3471 per share and bear interest at 5.00% per annum payable semi-annually. Our Senior Secured Bonds bear interest at 9.5% per annum, payable semi-annually. The proceeds for these financings will be applied to repay our $350 million Convertible bonds due in May 2023 and general corporate purposes. Following the repayment of our $350 million Convertible bonds due in May 2023, all our debt facilities matures in 2025 or later.

As part of the bond issuance, we agreed to exchange with bondholders $21.0 million of the Convertible bonds due in May 2023 for the New Convertible Bonds due in February 2028, and in March 2023, we repaid $177.8 million of our $350 million Convertible bonds due in May 2023 decreasing the outstanding amount from $350 million to $151.2 million.

*Increase in Issued Share Capital*

In connection with the $250.0 million New Convertible Bonds discussed above, the Company entered into a Share Lending Framework Agreement with DNB Markets ("SLA") with the intention to make up to 25.0 million loan shares available to DNB for the purposes of facilitating investors' hedging activities. For a temporary period, until the Company has issued 25.0 million shares and made them available for trading on the Oslo Stock Exchange by way of publication of a listing prospectus (expected to occur by April 30, 2023), Drew Holdings Limited ("Drew"), one of our related parties, entered into the SLA with the Company and DNB and made up to 15.0 million loan shares available for borrowing by DNB on behalf of the Company. In addition to the SLA, Drew and the Company have entered into a separate share loan agreement governing the terms applicable between Drew and the Company for Drew's share loan to DNB.

On February 1, 2023, to issue the initial 15.0 million loan shares to be made available for borrowing to DNB by the Company under the SLA, the Company's issued share capital increased by $1,500,000 to $24,426,359.8 divided into 244,263,598 shares, each with a nominal value of $0.10 per share.

On February 24, 2023, to issue the remaining 10.0 million loan shares to be made available for borrowing to DNB by the Company under the SLA, following the completion of the Special General Meeting on February 23, 2023, the Company's issued share capital increased by $1,000,000 to $25,426,359.80, divided into 254,263,598 shares, each with a nominal value of $0.10 per share.

15.0 million loan shares are currently lent to Drew to compensate Drew for making available an equal number of loan shares to DNB on the Company's behalf. The remaining 10.0 million loan shares are currently held in treasury. The total of 25.0 million new shares issued for the hedging program are currently issued with an International Securities Identification Number ("ISIN") separate from the ISIN for the Company's shares listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange and NYSE and are not admitted to trading on any regulated market nor registered in a central securities register. Following the admittance of trading of the new shares on the Oslo Stock Exchange, the new shares will be available for borrowing by DNB. Shares not borrowed by DNB under the SLA will be held in treasury and the loan shares will be cancelled upon redelivery. Redelivery may occur by repayment of the New Convertible Bonds or decrease in the demand for hedging shares for other reasons, or expiry of the SLA.

------

*Increase in Authorized Share Capital*

On February 23, 2023, the Company's authorized share capital increased from $25.5 million divided into 255,000,000 common shares of $0.10 par value each to $31.5 million divided into 315,000,000 common shares of $0.10 par value each by the authorization of an additional 60,000,000 common shares, each with a nominal value of $0.10 per share. The increase in authorized share capital was a condition for the Company to complete the settlement of the New Convertible Bonds discussed above.

No adjustment shall be made to the Conversion Price where such adjustment (rounded down if applicable) would be less than 1 per cent. of the Conversion Price then in effect. Any adjustment not required to be made, and/or any amount by which the Conversion Price has been rounded down, shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment, and such subsequent adjustment shall be made on the basis that the adjustment not required to be made had been made at the relevant time and/or, as the case may be, that the relevant rounding down had not been made. (b) Notice of any adjustments to the Conversion Price shall be given by the Issuer to Bondholders and to the Bond Trustee promptly after the determination thereof. (c) The Conversion Price shall not in any event (including following any adjustments pursuant to Clause 13.1) be reduced to below the Par Value of the Shares and the Issuer undertakes that it shall not take any action, and shall ensure that no action is taken, that would otherwise result in an adjustment to the Conversion Price to below such Par Value. 14. MERGER 14.1 Conversion Rights under Mergers In the case of any consolidation, amalgamation or merger of the Issuer with any other corporation (other than a consolidation, amalgamation or merger in which the Issuer is the continuing corporation), the Issuer will take such steps as shall be necessary (including the execution of an agreement supplemental to or amending the Bond Terms) to ensure that each Bond then outstanding will (during the period in which Conversion Rights may be exercised) be converted into the class and amount of shares and other securities and property receivable upon such consolidation, amalgamation or merger by a holder of the number of Shares which would have been issuable upon exercise of Conversion Rights immediately prior to such consolidation, amalgamation or merger. Such supplemental agreement deed will provide for adjustments which will be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in Clause 13 (Adjustment of the Conversion Price). The above will apply, mutatis mutandis to any subsequent consolidations, amalgamations or mergers. 14.2 Right to object The provisions in this Clause 14 have no limitation on the creditor's right of objection to the merger or de-merger. 15.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;61 ATTACHMENT 4 SECURITY PRINCIPLES The granting of the Transaction Security and Guarantees as contemplated under the Bond Terms is subject to, inter alia, the following security principles: a) The Transaction Security and Guarantees and extent of its perfection and scope shall take into account the cost, work and time of providing Transaction Security and Guarantees which must be proportionate to the benefit accruing to the Bondholders (it being understood that stamp duties and other fees payable as a percentage of the secured obligations (unless de minimis) shall not be considered proportionate). b) Group Companies will not be required to give Guarantees or provide Transaction Security if it would: (i) result in any breach of corporate benefit, financial assistance, fraudulent preference or thin capitalisation laws or regulations (or analogous restrictions) of any applicable jurisdiction; or (ii) result in a significant risk to the officers of the relevant Group Company of contravention of their fiduciary duties and/or of civil or criminal liability, unless such Guarantees or Transaction Security are accompanied by relevant provisions (limitation language) limiting the potential liability for the relevant Group Company, its management, officers or other employees. c) Any assets subject to pre-existing third party arrangements which are permitted by the Finance Documents or any other contractual restrictions or mandatory law restrictions on granting of guarantees, security or assignments or absence of necessary regulations, registrations or similar, and which prevent guarantees from being provided or those assets from being charged, pledged, assigned or the like, will (i), in respect of guarantees, limit the guarantee accordingly and (ii), in respect of security over assets, such assets will be excluded from any relevant security document but the Issuer shall procure that the relevant Group Companies use reasonable endeavours to obtain consent to providing guarantees or charging, pledging, assigning or the like of any such assets if the relevant guarantee or asset is material. d) Guarantees and Transaction Security will not be required from or over the assets of any joint venture or similar arrangement or any company in which a Group Company holds a minority interest. e) Perfection of Transaction Security will not be required if it would materially adversely affect the ability of the relevant Group Company to conduct its operations or business in the ordinary course. f) Any Intercompany Loans that are subject to a first priority assignment in favour of the Bondholders shall, to the extent required by law, be subject to delayed perfection allowing the debtor under such Intercompany Loan to pay interest and repay, amortise or otherwise settle (in full or in part) the loan until an acceleration has occurred following an Event of Default.

------

![](exhibit411-seniorsecured063.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;62 g) Notification of pledge over any bank account which is the subject of Transaction Security will be given (subject to local law advice) to the bank with whom the account is maintained, provided that such notice/perfection does not prevent or restrict the account holder from accessing or operating the account or from accessing or making use of monies standing to the credit of the account. The relevant Group Companies must use reasonable endeavours to obtain acknowledgements of notification of pledges over any bank accounts. h) Guarantees and Transaction Security will not be enforceable until an acceleration has occurred following an Event of Default. i) The Security Agent shall only be able to: (i) exercise any powers of attorney (including, but not limited to, in respect of voting rights appertaining to any shares) granted under any security document or have the right to receive any dividends if an event of default has occurred and is continuing, upon which such rights may no longer be exercised by the relevant pledgor; and (ii) exercise any powers of attorney granted under any security document if and when the relevant Obligor has failed to comply with a further assurance or perfection obligation within 5 Business Days of receiving prior notice of it.
