E&P Spending Surveys 2005 E&P spending rose by more than 20% globally, compared to a 13.4% increase suggested by the mid-year spending survey and the 5.7% increase at this same time last year. 2006 Global E&P spending predicted to increase 14%+ to $238 billion, from $207 billion in 2005 North America: increase 14.9% to $57 billion International: increase 14.9% to $156 billion Additional Upside to E&P Spending Updates Gains likely understated due to higher oil and gas prices than budgeted Deepwater Focus Deepwater spending increasing with 29% of those surveyed planning to spend a greater percentage of their budget in deepwater verses 17% in 2005 92% of international companies surveyed view drilling more favorable than purchasing reserves Source: Lehman Brothers - Oil Service and Drilling Oil Service December 9, 2005. 19

North Sea In December, 2005 the UK Tax Chancellor Announced a 20% Supplementary Corporate Tax Rate on UK Oil and Gas Producers Following the announcement however, even the majors have continued to make additional commitments Shell Sedco 711 has received a 3 year commitment and the JW McLean a 1 year commitment from around July 2007 and March 2007 respectively BP 1 year charter for Sedco 704 in the North Sea from Feb/March 2007 and LOI for the charter of ENSCO 92 for two to four wells from first quarter 2007. North Sea jackup demand has historically been largely short term in nature and often seasonal yet today we are seeing focus on potential shortfall in 2007 Strength in drilling, development and production support provides strong vessel utilization and future demand 22

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adjusting EBITDA for certain items that we believe are non-cash or unusual, consisting of: (i) gain on sale of assets; (ii) loss from unconsolidated ventures; (iii) minority interest; and (iv) other (income) expense, net. EBITDA and a Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow data, a measure of liquidity or an alternative to income from operations or net income as indicators of our operating performance rmance or any other measures of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are presented because we believe they are used by security analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. However, since EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements determined d in accordance with GAAP and are thus susceptible to varying calculations, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as presented may y not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. 30
