 AMENDMENT NO. 5 TO 
 COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH AND LICENSE AGREEMENT

 This Amendment No. 5 to Collaborative Research and License Agreement (this “Amendment”), effective
as of the date of signature of the last Party to sign below, amends the Collaborative Research and License Agreement entered into as of December 27, 2005 by and between AstraZeneca AB, a company limited by shares organized and existing under
the laws of Sweden (“AstraZeneca”), and Targacept, Inc., a Delaware (USA) corporation (“Targacept”), as amended by Amendment No. 1 dated November 10, 2006, Amendment No. 2 effective July 8, 2009,

 WHEREAS AstraZeneca and Targacept desire to amend, in accordance with Section 17.6 of the Agreement, various
aspects of the Agreement to, among other things, eliminate: (i) the field restriction applicable to AstraZeneca’s licenses to Exploit Candidate Drugs and Products under Section 8.1.3 of the Agreement; and (ii) obligations of, and
restrictions on, Targacept with regard to the Exploitation of Secondary Pharmacology Compounds and Other NNR Compounds in the Field or Schizophrenia. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, AstraZeneca and Targacept, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree that, as of
the effective date of this Amendment:

and, with respect to each Basket Compound, prior to the date, if any, that such Basket Compound becomes a Terminated Compound); provided, however, in no event shall AstraZeneca Research Activities include Development activities, except
that, for clarity, non-clinical studies in animals conducted in whole or in part after the Amendment No. 5 Date, at whatever stage, with a Basket Compound that are not regulatory toxicology studies shall constitute AstraZeneca Research

under Section 6.5.1(a) for Candidate Drug n, (C) AstraZeneca terminates the Development of Candidate Drug n in a Phase III Clinical Trial, and (D) AstraZeneca subsequently Develops Candidate Drug n+1 for AD, and such Candidate Drug
n+1 achieves any of milestone events 1, 2, 4 or 5 under Section 6.5.1(a), AstraZeneca shall not have any obligation to pay any milestone upon the occurrence of milestone events 1, 2, 4 or 5 under Section 6.5.1(a) for Candidate Drug n+1;
provided that, if Candidate Drug n+1 (or a Product that contains Candidate Drug n+1) receives Commercialization Regulatory Approval for AD in any Major Market Country, AstraZeneca shall have an obligation to pay the applicable milestone upon
the occurrence of each of milestone events 1, 2, 4 and 5 pursuant to Section 6.5.1(a) (as well as upon the occurrence of each of milestone events 6, 7, 8 and 9) for Candidate Drug n+2 and each subsequent Candidate Drug Developed for AD, except

 “(1) Products other than Other Licensed Products.
AstraZeneca’s obligation to pay royalties under Sections 6.6.1(a)(1), (a)(2), (a)(4) and (c) (with respect to Products other than Other Licensed Products) shall commence, on a country-by-country basis, with respect to each separate
Product, on the date of the First Commercial Sale of such Product by AstraZeneca, its Affiliates or Sublicensees in such country. The obligation shall expire, on a country-by-country basis, with respect to each separate Product, when that Product
becomes a Terminated Compound with respect to such country or, if earlier, on the last to occur of (A) the twelfth (12th) anniversary of the First Commercial Sale of the first Product that is in the same Compound Family as such Product by
AstraZeneca, its Affiliates or Sublicensees in such country; (B) the expiration date in such country of the last to expire of (i) any Targacept Patent Right, Joint Patent Right, Supplemental Patent Right, AstraZeneca Research Program
Patent Right or AstraZeneca Pre-Phase IIb Program Patent Right, in each case that includes at least one Valid Claim covering the composition of matter of such Product, a pharmaceutical preparation comprising such Product or a method of use of such
Product for the indication for which Commercialization Regulatory Approval is obtained with respect to such Product in such country or (ii) any AstraZeneca Derivative Patent Right that includes at least one Valid Claim covering the composition
of matter of the Candidate Drug contained in such Product (each of (i) and (ii), a “Royalty-Bearing Claim”) and (C) solely with respect to Products that are not Licensed Derivatives, the expiration or earlier termination
of the applicable Data Exclusivity Period. Upon termination of the royalty obligations of AstraZeneca under this Section 6.6.1(b)(1) in a country with respect to a Product, the license grants to AstraZeneca in Section 8.1 shall become
fully paid-up and AZ Net Sales of such Product in such country shall be excluded from the royalty calculations set forth in Section 6.6.1(a) (including the thresholds and ceilings). For purposes of clarity, if on the date of the First
Commercial Sale of a Product (other than an Other Licensed Product), (i) there is no Royalty-Bearing Claim with respect to such Product, (ii) such First Commercial Sale is after the twelfth (12th) anniversary of the First Commercial
Sale of the first Product that is in the same Compound Family as such Product by AstraZeneca, its Affiliates or Sublicensees in such country and (iii) either (x) the Candidate Drug contained in such Product is not a Licensed Derivative,
but there is no Data Exclusivity Period with respect to such Product or (y) the Candidate Drug contained in such Product is a Licensed Derivative, then no royalties shall be owed under this Section 6.6.1 until such time, if any, as there
is a Royalty-Bearing Claim with respect to such Product.”

PERSONAL & CONFIDENTIAL 
 [Director]

 Board of Directors 
 McDermott

 RE: RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD 
 Dear [Director]: 
 I am pleased to advise you that the Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors (the “Committee”) of McDermott International, Inc. (the “Company”) approved a grant to you (the “Grant”) of [l] shares of restricted stock under the 2009 McDermott International, Inc. Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) on May 13, 2013 (the “Grant Date”). A copy of the Prospectus
relating to the Plan, which includes a copy of the Plan, has previously been made available to you. The restricted stock award will have no Period of Restriction (as defined in the Plan), and the restrictions on the Grant will lapse on the Grant
Date. 
 Restricted Stock Award. On the Grant Date, you will have the right to be issued the number of shares of Common Stock of the
Company set forth above. Such shares will be issued to you in book-entry form in an account in your name with our transfer agent, Computershare, absent other instructions from you, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. 

Tax Consequences. You are solely responsible for the taxes associated with the Grant, and you should consult with and rely on your own tax
advisor, accountant or legal advisor as to the tax consequences to you of the Grant. A general description of the tax consequences relating to the type of award provided through the Grant is included in the Prospectus. 

Securities and Exchange Commission Requirements. Because you are a Section 16 insider, this type of transaction must be
reported on a Form 4 before the end of the second
(2nd) business day following the Grant Date. Please
be aware that if you are going to reject the Grant, you should do so as soon as possible to avoid potential Section 16 liability. Please advise Kim Wolford and Dennis Edge immediately by e-mail, fax or telephone call if you intend to reject
this grant. 
 Absent such notice of rejection, we will prepare and file the required Form 4 on your behalf (pursuant to your standing
authorization for us to do so) within the required two business day deadline.

 You are also deemed to be an “affiliate” for purposes of Rule 144 under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, and accordingly subject to Rule 144. Rule 144 is applicable only when the shares are sold, so you need not take any action under Rule 144 at this time. 
 Other Information. If you have any questions concerning the Grant, please do not hesitate to contact Dennis Edge at 281/870-7342. 
 Please acknowledge receipt and acceptance of all of the aforesaid by signing both this letter and the duplicate copy enclosed and returning one of them in the pre-paid envelope provided and addressed to
the Company at 757 N. Eldridge Parkway, Houston, Texas 77079, attention of Dennis Edge, and marked “Personal and Confidential” within sixty (60) days from the date hereof.
