Mr. Mark Mey

Dear Mr. Mey,

On behalf of Transocean Offshore Deepwater Drilling Inc. (“TODDI”), it is our pleasure to offer you a position as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Transocean Ltd. on the terms and conditions set forth in this employment agreement (the “Agreement”), subject to the Pre-Employment Conditions (as defined below).  All references in this Agreement to “Transocean” or “Company” shall mean Transocean Ltd. and its affiliates. 

		
	1.
	Effectiveness: The effectiveness of this Agreement is subject to results deemed satisfactory by Transocean of (i) a professional and personal background check, and (ii) a drug screening (collectively, the “Pre-Employment Conditions”).  

		
	2.
	Start Date: Subject to your satisfaction of the Pre-Employment Conditions, your first day of employment shall be on May 27, 2015 or any other date as otherwise mutually agreed in writing between the parties (the “Start Date”).

		
	3.
	Title: You will serve as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Transocean Ltd.

		
	4.
	Reporting: You will report to the President and Chief Executive Officer of Transocean Ltd. 

		
	5.
	Remuneration and other Benefits: The compensation and benefits described in this Agreement are subject to the terms and conditions of the underlying policies and/or plan documents and award agreements governing such compensation or benefits. In the event of any discrepancy, the underlying policies, plan documents or award agreements prevail.

a)Base Salary:  Your initial annual gross base salary will be $760,000 to be paid on the Company’s U.S. Dollar payroll in accordance with normal Transocean payroll policy (the “Base Salary”).  Your annual gross base salary will be reviewed each year by the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Transocean Ltd. (the “Board”) and communicated to you in writing. 

b)Replacement Awards:  In consideration of your forfeited equity awards from previous employment, you will receive (i) a cash bonus of $500,000 payable to you within 30 days following your Start Date (the “Replacement Bonus”) and (ii) an equity award on your Start Date pursuant to the Transocean Ltd. 2015 Long-Term Incentive Plan of Transocean (the “LTIP”) in the form of time-vested restricted share units (“RSUs”) with a cash value of $2,500,000 (the “Replacement Equity Award”).  The number of RSUs in the Replacement Equity Award will be determined by dividing $2,500,000 by the average 30 trading day closing price ending on the last trading day of the calendar month prior to the Start Date (the “Grant Value”).  Your Replacement Equity Award will vest in equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of your Start Date, subject to your continued employment with Transocean through the applicable vesting date.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, your Replacement Bonus will be subject to repayment if, prior to the first 

1

anniversary of your Start Date, your employment is terminated by the Company for any reason or under notice pursuant to Section 17 herein.

c)Performance Award and Cash Bonus Plan of Transocean Ltd.:  In addition to your Base Salary and Replacement Bonus, you will be eligible to participate in the Performance Award and Cash Bonus Plan or any successor plan (the “AIP”) in accordance with its applicable terms and to the extent determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.  Your 2015 annual bonus target will be 85% of your actual Base Salary earned in 2015.  Your annual bonus target is not a promise, right or entitlement to receive any bonus or a bonus of a certain amount.  Rather, you will have an opportunity to earn a percentage of your annual bonus target based on Transocean’s performance relative to a set of pre-determined performance metrics, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.  This means that your actual bonus may range from 0%-200% of your annual bonus target as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. The annual bonus will be paid in accordance with the terms of the AIP.  Your actual annual bonus target and the terms of the AIP may change over time as determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, and any changes will be communicated to you in writing.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Committee retains absolute discretion in determining your bonus and may rely on factors relating specifically to your performance which may result in a bonus calculated differently than for other AIP participants.

d)Transocean Ltd. 2015 Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP):  You will be eligible to participate in the LTIP in accordance with its applicable terms and to the extent determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion. 

2015 Annual LTIP Award:  In addition to the award described in Section 5(b), on your Start Date you will receive an equity award pursuant to the LTIP in the form of RSUs with a cash value of $1,100,000 (the “2015 RSUs”).  The number of 2015 RSUs will be determined by dividing $1,100,000 by the Grant Value.  Your 2015 RSUs will vest in equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of your Start Date, subject to your continued employment with Transocean through the applicable vesting date.  In addition, on your Start Date you will receive an equity award pursuant to the LTIP in the form of performance units (“Performance Units”) with a cash value of $1,100,000 subject to vesting and performance terms equivalent to those currently in place for the 2015-2017 performance cycle.  The number of Performance Units will be determined by dividing $1,100,000 by the Grant Value.

e)Certificate of Coverage:  Transocean will apply to the United States Social Security Administration for a certificate of coverage for U.S. social security taxes (“Certificate of Coverage”).  You will be eligible to participate in the benefit programs provided for U.S. National Expatriate employees through the date on which your Certificate of Coverage expires.  

f)Tax and Financial Planning:  You will be entitled to a tax and financial planning benefit of $5,000 annually in accordance with Transocean’s policy.

	Compensation Condition:  Any compensation (including benefits) to be paid under this Agreement shall, to the extent required by applicable Swiss laws and the Company’s articles of association, be subject to shareholder approval at the general meeting of shareholders of the Company.

		3.	Expenditure
Commitments and Shortfall Payments. Each Expenditure for both the 60% Option and the 15% Option calls for RISE to contribute,
at a minimum, the amount indicated in Table 1 and Table 2 in respect of the Property on or before the relevant completion date.
If RISE fails to satisfy an Expenditure on or before such date, RISE may, in its sole discretion, pay to EASTFIELD the corresponding
shortfall amount (being the difference between the relevant Expenditure and the Qualifying Expenses at that time) within 20 business
days of the relevant completion date. Any Qualifying Expenses incurred in excess of Expenditure in both the 60% Option and the
15% Option will be

    	 

    	 

    

		 	rolled
over and applied towards satisfying the next or succeeding Expenditure requirements.

 

		4.	Option
Period, Withdrawal and Termination. The “Option Period” shall commence on April 28, 2015 and end on the
earlier of the date RISE exercises the 15% Option or the date this Agreement is terminated. This Agreement may be terminated as
follows:

 

		a.	by
EASTFIELD sending a notice to RISE if RISE fails to make a cash payment or satisfy an Expenditure on the relevant completion date,
and such cash payment or Expenditure remains outstanding for a period of 10 calendar days;

 

		b.	by
RISE sending a notice to EASTFIELD that it has elected to terminate this Agreement upon 10 business days’ notice.

 

		5.	Exercise
of Option. Within 10 business days of exercising the 60% Option or 15% Option, as applicable, EASTFIELD shall deliver to RISE
all registerable instruments of transfer executed by EASTFIELD as transferor of the corresponding percentage interest in the Property
in favour of RISE as transferee, together with anything reasonably required by RISE to give full effect to the transfer of the
interest.

 

		6.	Exploration
Report. On at least an annual basis, RISE will provide to EASTFIELD a report summarising the results of its Exploration on
the Property and access to all new information regarding the Property developed or obtained by RISE during the period covered
by such report.

 

		7.	Access
Rights. During the Option Period, RISE and its Personnel shall have the exclusive licence to enter the Property and conduct
operations thereon and RISE may exercise any and all of EASTFIELD’s rights as the legal and beneficial owner of the Property.
RISE has complete discretion as to the nature, timing, method and conduct of all operations. RISE may access all business and
confidential information in EASTFIELD’s possession, custody and control, which relate to the Property. RISE may, at its
cost, sample any of EASTFIELD’s existing core samples and corresponding pulp samples for assay purposes.

 

		8.	Marketing
Rights. Subject to this clause 8, during the Option Period EASTFIELD and any person interested in acquiring all or a portion
of EASTFIELD’s remaining interest in the Property (an “Interested Party”) may enter the Property and
access all of EASTFIELD’s existing data on the Property and any new information which RISE has provided to EASTFIELD regarding
the Property. Prior to receiving any information and entering the Property, any Interested Party shall execute a confidentiality
agreement with EASTFIELD in form and substance acceptable to RISE, acting reasonably. Among other things, this agreement
will require the Interested Party to:

 

		a.	keep
confidential all information disclosed to it by EASTFIELD and which it developed in connection with evaluating EASTFIELD’s
interest in the Property;

 

		b.	only
use such information for the limited purpose of evaluating the desirability of acquiring EASTFIELD’s interest in the Property;

    	 

    	 

    

		c.	not
acquire any interest in any exploration or mining property or claim within two (2) kilometres of the Property for a period of
24 months; and

 

		d.	provide
RISE a copy of any report or reports generated from the Interested Party’s review of the Property or any data or information
obtained from EASTFIELD.

 

For
greater clarity, EASTFIELD’s interest in the Property for the purposes of this clause 8 does not include that percentage
of the Property subject to a valid Option in favour of RISE.

 

		9.	Exploration
Rights. During the Option Period, RISE will, in exercising its rights to the extent that they relate to its operations on
the Property:

 

		a.	comply
with the Mines Act (British Columbia), the Mineral Tenure Act (British Columbia), and any other laws dealing with
miners and the Exploration for and mining of minerals;

 

		b.	keep
the Property in good standing; and

 

		c.	use
all reasonable endeavours to have its Exploration operations recorded for assessment credit against the Property to the fullest
possible extent.

 

		10.	Joint
Venture Agreement. Upon the exercise the 60% Option, the Parties and IMPERIAL shall execute a joint venture agreement (“JVA”)
on industry acceptable terms including, but not limited to, the following, and use the services of a recognized arbitrator of
the Province of British Columbia in connection therewith if necessary. At this point in time, RISE will own a 60% interest in
the Property while EASTFIELD and IMPERIAL combined will own the remaining 40% interest. Following the execution of the JVA and
provided that RISE has yet to exercise the 15% Option, the interest of each party will be adjusted from time to time by the contribution
of a party divided by the total contributions of all parties with the initial contribution of RISE being deemed to be $2,000,000
and that of EASTFIELD and IMPERIAL combined being deemed to be $1,333,333. The foregoing adjustment mechanism shall specifically
exclude any payment made by RISE to EASTFIELD in connection with the exercise of the 15% Option. The JVA shall be governed by
the laws of the Province of British Columbia.

 

		11.	Joint
Venture Company. Upon the exercise of the 15% Option, the Parties and IMPERIAL shall form a joint venture company (“JVC”)
that will own and operate the Property. Provided that the interest of the parties has not been adjusted in accordance with clause
10, the JVC will initially be 75% owned by RISE with EASTFIELD and IMPERIAL combined owning the remaining 25%. After the formation
of the JVC, each party will contribute to its share to fund operations on the Property commensurate to such party’s interest
in the Property. If one party does not contribute its interest in the Property will be reduced pro-rata.

 

		12.	Management.

 

		a.	For
the duration of the Option Period, the Parties will form a management

    	 

    	 

    

		 	committee
(the “Management Committee”) consisting of one representative from RISE, who shall act as Chairman, and one
representative from EASTFIELD. The Management Committee shall be responsible for making any and all exploration and development
decisions regarding the Property, including approving all work programs and budgets. During the Option Period, all decisions of
the Management Committee shall be determined by a simple majority vote (through a show of hands) and if there is an equality of
votes on a matter before the Management Committee, the Chairman shall have a further and deciding vote. Following the execution
of the JVA, the Management Committee will continue to exist with all decisions being determined by a simple majority vote but
with each representative having the number of votes commensurate with the interest of the relevant party in the Property at such
time. The Management Committee will cease to exist once the JVC is formed.

 

		b.	If
at any time during the Option Period, RISE requires the assistance of third party contractors in conducting any Exploration, RISE
agrees to consider using persons associated with EASTFIELD for such work provided RISE is satisfied that:

 

		i.	such
persons have demonstrable competence in the areas of work which RISE requires to be performed; and

 

		ii.	the
terms on which the work will be provided (including the costs or rates proposed to be charged) by such persons (i) are no less
favourable than those which RISE could otherwise obtain from a similarly qualified and experienced contractor; and (ii) otherwise
reflect prevailing market terms and rates.

 

		c.	RISE
may terminate its role as the operator on the Property upon providing EASTFIELD with 20 business days’ written notice.

 

		d.	RISE
may not exceed any work program and budget approved by the Management Committee by more than 10% except with the Management Committee’s
prior approval or in a defensible emergency.

 

		e.	During
the Option Period, each Party will indemnify and hold harmless the other Party and its Personnel from and against all Claims and
Liabilities incurred in connection with or in relation to its role as operator on the Property, save and except for those Claims
and Liabilities which arise as a result of the Gross Negligence or Wilful Misconduct of a Party or its Personnel.

 

		13.	Liability.
Each Party agrees that neither shall be, in any circumstances, liable to the other Party for any indirect or consequential
loss (including loss of profits, revenues, business opportunity and the like), howsoever arising; and releases the other from
all Claims for indirect or consequential loss arising under, or in respect of, this Agreement.
