The Agent shall notify the Parent and the Lenders promptly after such conditions having been satisfied.

4. PARENT’S UNDERTAKINGS

The below undertakings (other than the undertakings under paragraph (a) below) are agreed on the basis that they are intended only to apply on a temporary basis during the Negotiation Period and will need to be revisited and put on a more permanent footing as part of the amendment and extension requests issued in connection with implementing the Parent’s proposals for the recapitalisation of the Group. The below undertakings shall apply in addition to and shall not waive or release any existing obligation on any Obligor under the Facility Agreement.

The Parent undertakes to the Agent on behalf of the Finance Parties, which undertakings shall be considered given by the Parent’s acceptance of the terms set out in this letter, that (save as the Agent (acting on the instructions of the Required Lenders) may otherwise agree in writing):

(a) it shall:

(i) by no later than 16 May 2016 provide to the Co-Com and Co-Com Advisors an indicative legal analysis prepared by the Parent and its advisors for contingency planning purposes including without limitation in respect of (1) the potential use of an English and/or local law scheme of arrangement to implement a non-consensual restructuring, (2) the potential use of a US Chapter 11 plan of reorganisation to implement a non-consensual restructuring, and (3) the potential legal impact on the Parent of a change in governing law, in each case with respect to the Group Facility Agreements and any other instrument relating to Financial Indebtedness of any member of the Group;

(ii) by no later than 16 May 2016, present to the Co-Com and the Co-Com Advisors its proposals for the recapitalisation of the Group broadly consistent with the proposals presented by the Parent to the Co-Com at the meeting between the Parent and the Co-Com on 10 March 2016 and showing sustainability of funding through 2020, accompanied by an updated financial model with assumptions based on updated feedback from Fearnleys and in respect of cost items assumptions based on any guidance provided by the Parent to the capital markets;

(iii) by no later than 30 June 2016, present to the lenders and each of the facility agents under the Group Facility Agreements for approval amendment and extension requests setting out its proposals for the recapitalisation of the Group showing sustainability of funding through 2020 (taking into account input from the Co-Com and the Co-Com Advisors);

(iv) at any time after the presentation of amendment and extension requests for approval pursuant to paragraph (iii) above and by no later than 1 September 2016, if requested by the Co-Com on not less than 10 calendar days’ prior notice, on a single occasion, host a meeting for the Co-Com (and, if requested by the Co-Com, all lenders under the Group Facility Agreements) at which the Parent will present an update on the status

2

of its plans for and developments in relation to the restructuring of the bonds and notes issued by the Parent and other members of the Group including without limitation principal and coupon amounts payable thereunder and an update on its proposal for the recapitalisation of the Group; and

(v) use reasonable endeavours to ensure that by no later than 31 December 2016 and otherwise to ensure that by no later than 30 April 2017, the amendments contemplated in the amendment and extension requests presented for approval pursuant to paragraph (iii) above have become effective and its proposed recapitalisation of the Group has been implemented on terms satisfactory to the Required Lenders,

provided that:

(A) each of the dates given in the Milestones above (other than the Milestones set out in paragraphs (iv) and (v) above for which no grace period applies) is subject to a grace period of 15 calendar days, or 30 calendar days in respect of the Milestone set out in paragraph (iii) above; and

(B) each Milestone, on a single occasion only, may be varied at the written request of the Parent with the consent of the Agent in its sole discretion if the request relates to a further delay of 15 calendar days beyond either the due date or (if applicable) the end of the grace period referred to in (A) above. Other than to the extent that the Required Lenders notify the Agent in writing to the contrary before the Agent gives such a consent, the Required Lenders are by their approval of this letter deemed to have authorised (but not required) the Agent to give that consent. The Agent confirms that it has considered whether it is able to consent to such a delay without requiring instructions from the Required Lenders in addition to the terms of this letter and has satisfied itself that it is able to do so. The Agent shall not be liable for any damages, costs or losses whatsoever as a result of giving any such consent;

(b) it shall not (and shall ensure that no other member of the Group shall) during the Negotiation Period incur or allow to remain outstanding any Financial Indebtedness other than Permitted Financial Indebtedness;

(c) during the Negotiation Period, it shall not, irrespective of any term of the Finance Documents to the contrary:

(iii) buy back or redeem any shares in its capital,

in each case, other than to the extent any of the same occurs solely as part of the operation in the ordinary course of business of any executive or employee benefit scheme or plan. This

3

undertaking shall, from and including the Effective Date, supersede the equivalent undertaking given by the Parent pursuant to the consent letter from the Agent dated 18 June 2015;

(d) during the Negotiation Period, it shall not (and it shall procure that no other member of the Group shall) prepay, repay, purchase or otherwise acquire, in each case voluntarily, any loans under any of the Group Facility Agreements (provided that it shall not be prohibited from taking any action with respect to Financial Indebtedness as described in sub-paragraph (iv) of the definition of Permitted Financial Indebtedness);

(g) it shall not (and shall ensure that no other member of the Group shall) during the Negotiation Period acquire a company or any shares or a business or undertaking (or, in each case, any interest in any of them) or make any equity injections or contributions in each case except for Permitted Acquisitions;

(3) in respect of any Financial Support which is provided, procured, created or permitted to subsist in connection with the replacement, refinancing, amendment or extension (or in the case of the Rubi Guarantees, issuance) of bank guarantees and letters of credit with a maturity date falling within the Negotiation Period,

(A) in advance of making any such Cash Leakage Payment, the Parent shall, with appropriate legal advice, consider the rights and obligations of the relevant parties with respect to such Cash Leakage Payment to determine whether that Cash Leakage Payment can be legally reduced, postponed, cancelled or otherwise avoided under the terms of the agreement under which the requirement to make that Cash Leakage Payment arises or any related agreements, in each case without materially and adversely affecting the interests of the Group and its financial creditors;

(B) if the Parent determines acting reasonably that the Cash Leakage Payment can be so reduced, postponed, cancelled or otherwise avoided, the Parent shall use its reasonable endeavours to achieve the same;

(C) if the Parent determines acting reasonably that the Cash Leakage Payment cannot be so reduced, postponed, cancelled or otherwise avoided, unless the Parent acting reasonably considers that to do so would not be in the interests of the Group and its financial creditors (because for example, but without limitation, the same risks resulting in additional amounts being claimed from members of the Group) the Parent shall:

provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this paragraph (k) shall prohibit the Parent or any other member of the Group from making any Cash Leakage Payment which the Parent is satisfied has become legally due and payable under the terms of the relevant documentation. In particular if the Cash Leakage Payment should become due and payable immediately without notice, neither the Parent nor any member of the Group shall be required to delay the making of the Cash Leakage Payment in order to comply with the terms of sub-paragraphs (A) to (D) above and provided further that the provisions of this paragraph 4(k) shall not apply to the payments of USD 8,000,000 made on 15 April 2016 and USD 8,000,000 scheduled to be made on or about 13 June 2016 under the Parent’s obligations in respect of Sapura Rubi GmbH under the letter of undertaking dated on or about 5 April 2015;

(n) it shall not, and shall procure that no other member of the Group shall, during the Negotiation Period agree to amendments to any of the other Group Facility Agreements or any other instrument relating to Financial Indebtedness of any member of the Group (provided that this provision shall apply only to amendments to any of the Group Facility Agreements, any of the Ship Finance Arrangements or any hedging agreement entered into by any Group member except in respect of amendments to economics) on more favourable terms in any material respect than are provided with respect to the Facility Agreement or, with respect to an extension of tenor, the Maturing Facility Agreements other than any amendments (A) contemplated by the proposals for the recapitalisation of the Group described in paragraphs (a)(ii) and (a)(iii) above, (B) arising from the extension of the Maturing Facility Agreements on the basis agreed with the Required Lenders or any agreement entered into pursuant to the extension approval letters dated on or about the date of this letter or (C) in the case of amendments to economics of any instrument relating to Financial Indebtedness of the Group (other than any of the Group Facility Agreements, any of the Ship Finance Arrangements or any hedging agreement) entered into by any Group member,

6

resulting in an aggregate cost to the Group under this paragraph 4(n) and under paragraph 4(o) below not exceeding USD25,000,000 (or its equivalent in other currencies);

(o) during the Negotiation Period, if any member of the Group agrees to pay higher compensation relative to the Facility Agreement or, with respect to an extension, the Maturing Facility Agreements (whether in the form of margin increases, consent fees or otherwise), save as (A) contemplated by the proposals for the recapitalisation of the Group described in paragraphs (a)(ii) and (a)(iii) above or (B) arising from the extension of the Maturing Facility Agreements on the basis agreed with the Required Lenders or any agreement entered into pursuant to the extension approval letters relating to the Maturing Facility Agreements dated on or about the date of this letter to secure amendments in any of the other Group Facility Agreements or any other instrument relating to Financial Indebtedness of any member of the Group, it will procure that the terms of the Facility Agreement are amended to reflect this higher compensation and will enter into, or procure that such other member of the Group enters into, such documents as the Agent may reasonably require in order to reflect such higher compensation, save to the extent that the aggregate cost to the Group under this paragraph 4(o) and under paragraph 4(n) above does not exceed USD25,000,000 (or its equivalent in other currencies);
