On September 30, 2022, pursuant to the business combination agreement, dated November 10, 2021 (as amended), by and among Noble Corporation, an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability (“Noble Cayman”), Noble Corporation plc, a public limited company formed under the laws of England and Wales (the “Company”), Noble Newco Sub Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), and The Drilling Company of 1972 A/S, a Danish public limited liability company, Noble Cayman merged with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”), with Merger Sub surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. As a result of the Merger, the separate existence of Noble Cayman as an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability ended, and the Company became Noble Cayman’s successor-in-interest. This Form 15 relates solely to the reporting obligations of Noble Cayman and does not affect the reporting obligations of the Company, which is the successor issuer to Noble Cayman pursuant to Rule 12g-3(a) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
