NOTICE TO INVESTORS IN THE EEA

In any member state of the European Economic Area (the "EEA") that has implemented the Prospectus Directive, other than Norway (each, a "Relevant Member State"), this communication is only addressed to and is only directed at qualified investors in that Member State within the meaning of the Prospectus Directive. The Prospectus has been prepared on the basis that all offers of New Shares outside Norway will be made pursuant to an exemption under the Prospectus Directive from the requirement to produce a prospectus for offer of shares. Accordingly, any person making or intending to make any offer within the EEA of New Shares which is the subject of the Rights Offering contemplated in this Prospectus within any EEA member state (other than Norway) should only do so in circumstances in which no obligation arises for the Company or the Manager to publish a prospectus or a supplement to a prospectus under the Prospectus Directive for such offer. Neither the Company nor the Manager have authorised, nor do they authorise, the making of any offer of Shares through any financial intermediary, other than offers made by the Manager which constitute the final placement of New Shares contemplated in this Prospectus.

Each person in a Relevant Member State other than, in the case of paragraph (a), persons receiving offers contemplated in this Prospectus in Norway, who receives any communication in respect of, or who acquires any New Shares under, the offers contemplated in this Prospectus will be deemed to have represented, warranted and agreed to and with the Manager and the Company that:

a) it is a qualified investor as defined in the Prospectus Directive, and

b) in the case of any New Shares acquired by it as a financial intermediary, as that term is used in Article 3(2) of the Prospectus Directive, (i) such New Shares acquired by it in the Rights Offering have not been acquired on behalf of, nor have they been acquired with a view to their offer or resale to, persons in any Relevant Member State other than qualified investors, as that term is defined in the Prospectus Directive, or in circumstances in which the prior consent of the Manager has been given to the offer or resale; or (ii) where such New Shares have been acquired by it on behalf of persons in any Relevant Member State other than qualified investors, the offer of those New Shares to it is not treated under the Prospectus Directive as having been made to such persons.

For the purposes of this provision, the expression an "offer to the public" in relation to any of the New Shares in any Relevant Member State means the communication in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and any Shares to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase any of the New Shares, as the same may be varied in that Relevant Member State by any measure implementing the Prospectus Directive in that Relevant Member State, and the expression " Prospectus Directive" means Directive 2003/71/EC (and amendments thereto, including the 2010 PD Amending Directive, to the extent implemented in the Relevant Member State), and includes any relevant implementing measure in each Relevant Member State and the expression "2010 PD Amending Directive" means Directive 2010/73/EU.

See Section 14, "Selling and Transfer Restrictions" for certain other notices to investors.

ENFORCEMENT OF CIVIL LIABILITIES

The Company is a company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands. As a result, the rights of holders of the Company’s Shares will be governed by the laws of the Cayman Islands and the Company’s articles of association (the "Articles of Association"). The rights of shareholders under the laws of the Cayman Islands may differ from the rights of shareholders of companies incorporated in other jurisdictions. The majority of the members of the Company’s board of directors (the "Board Members" and the "Board of Directors", respectively) and the members of the senior management of the Group (the "Management") are not residents of the United States, and all of the

4

Company’s assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for investors in the United States to effect service of process on the Company or its Board Members and members of Management in the United States or to enforce in the United States judgments obtained in U.S. courts against the Company or those persons, including judgments based on the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any State or territory within the United States. Uncertainty exists as to whether courts in Norway will enforce judgments obtained in other jurisdictions, including the United States, against the Company or its Board Members or members of Management under the securities laws of those jurisdictions or entertain actions in the Cayman Islands against the Company or its Board Members or members of Management under the securities laws of other jurisdictions. In addition, awards of punitive damages in actions brought in the United States or elsewhere may not be enforceable in the Cayman Islands. The United States and the Cayman Islands do not currently have a treaty providing for reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgements (other than arbitral awards) in civil and commercial matters.

AVAILABLE INFORMATION

The Company has agreed that, for so long as any of the New Shares are "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the U.S. Securities Act, it will during any period in which it is neither subject to Sections 13 or 15(d) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "U.S. Exchange Act"), nor exempt from reporting pursuant to Rule 12g3-2(b) under the U.S. Exchange Act, provide to any holder or beneficial owners of Shares, or to any prospective purchaser designated by any such registered holder, upon the request of such holder, beneficial owner or prospective owner, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) of the U.S. Securities Act.

1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Summaries are made up of disclosure requirements known as "Elements". These elements are numbered in Sections A – E (A.1 – E.7). This summary contains all the Elements required to be included in a summary for this type of securities and issuer. Because some Elements are not required to be addressed, there may be gaps in the numbering sequence of the Elements. Even though an Element may be required to be inserted in the summary because of the type of securities and issuer, it is possible that no relevant information can be given regarding the Element. In this case a short description of the Element is included in the summary with the mention of "not applicable". Section A – Introduction and warnings A.1 Warning This summary should be read as an introduction to the

Prospectus; any decision to invest in the securities should be based on consideration of the Prospectus as a whole by the investor; where a claim relating to the information contained in the Prospectus is brought before a court, the plaintiff investor might, under the national legislation of the Member States, have to bear the costs of translating the Prospectus before the legal proceedings are initiated; and civil liability attaches only to those persons who have tabled the summary including any translation thereof, but only if the summary is misleading, inaccurate or inconsistent when read together with the other parts of the prospectus or it does not provide, when read together with the other parts of the Prospectus, key information in order to aid investors when considering whether to invest in such securities.

A.2 Consent to use of the prospectus

Not applicable; financial intermediaries are not entitled to use the prospectus for subsequent resale or final placement of securities.

Section B – Issuer B.1 Legal and

commercial name

Siem Offshore Inc.

B.2 Domicile and legal form, legislation and country of incorporation

Siem Offshore Inc. is an exempted company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of Cayman Islands with corporate registration no. 140468.

B.3 Current operations, principal activities and markets

Siem Offshore’s primary activity is to own and operate offshore support vessels for the offshore energy service industry. The Group's fleet comprises of platform supply vessels, anchor-handling, tug, supply vessels, offshore subsea construction vessels and a variety of other support vessels. The Company’s fleet comprises of 55 offshore support vessels, of which 9 vessels are under construction. In addition to its primary activity, the Company has also established a business division for its industrial investments. The

2

Group's industrial investment division includes the Group's services as a contractor within the European offshore wind farm and offshore cable laying market, the development of applications for managed pressure drilling, a scientific core drilling vessel, specialized engineering to develop and implement combat management systems for navy vessels and certain other investments.

B.4a Significant recent trends affecting the Company and the industries in which it operates

The North Sea PSV and AHTS vessel market is continuing to experience soft rates and utilization. Additional vessels have entered the North Sea from other regions and as rig activity is reduced, this places pressure on vessel utilization and fixture rates. Vessel owners have placed vessels in lay-up and owners are considering additional lay-ups. The market for OSVs in Brazil has significantly softened following lower demand activity from Petroleo Brasileiro SA (“Petrobras”). When disclosing its five year business plan, Petrobras announced reduced capital expenditures and highlighted cost cutting measures with the intension to reduce leverage going forward. In order for Petrobras to reduce its cost base, there is an increased risk that Petrobras will initiate renegotiation of existing contracts with suppliers, including vessel owners. It is in the opinion of the Company that an increased risk of such contract renegotiations or even contract cancellations for certain vessels of the Company exists. The outlook for the OSV market is expected to remain soft for several years due to reduced investments in the offshore oil and gas industry following lower current and future commodity prices for oil and gas, which again reduces the demand for vessels and puts pressure on utilisation and fixture rates, coupled with increased supply of vessels as more vessels under construction are delivered from yards. In response to the soft OSV market, the Company has decided to take two vessels out of operations and place into lay-up. Siem Offshore Contractors experience steady tendering activity in the offshore windfarm market (“OWF”) with scheduled marine installation activities taking place in 2017 and 2018 and for operations and maintenance contracts to be awarded in 2015. There has been no significant change in the financial or trading position of the Company since the end of the last financial period for which interim financial information has been published. The Company has in connection with preparing the reporting of its second quarter 2015 results considered the fair value of its assets versus the respective book values. It is clear that such considerations will result in impairments on vessel values in the second quarter 2015 results. There has been no material adverse change in the prospects of the issuer since the date of its last published audited financial statements.

B.5 Description of the Group

Siem Offshore Inc. is a holding company with no employees and is therefore depended on services from its subsidiaries. These services consist of administrative, operational and corporate

3

services provided by Siem Offshore Management AS and Siem Offshore AS. The Group's vessels are owned by several companies within the Group. Siem Offshore Rederi AS currently owns all Norwegian, Polish and German built vessels, except the OSCV “Siem Spearfish” which is owned by Siem Offshore Construction Vessels AS. Further, Siem Offshore Rederi AS owns 51% of Siem Offshore Ghana International AS, which owns the PSV “Siem Sasha”, and owns 51% of Siem Meling Offshore DA which owns two PSVs. Siem Offshore Do Brazil S.A. owns the locally built Brazilian fleet. Siem Offshore Canada Inc. owns 50% of Secunda Canada LP, which again owns 6 Canadian flagged vessels and has 1 vessel under construction. Siem Offshore Contractors GmbH, which will utilize the cable lay vessel “Siem Aimery” and has the installation support vessel “Siem Moxie” on a time charter, is owned 100% by Siem Offshore Invest AS. Siem AHTS Pool AS manages a pool of 10 AHTS sister vessels (including 2 from a pool partner) in accordance with a partner agreement. The Group's industrial investments business division consists of the subsidiaries Siem Offshore Contractors GmbH and Siem WIS AS, Overseas Drilling Limited which owns the scientific core drilling vessel “JOIDES Resolution” and certain property investments, which are owned 100% by Siem Offshore Invest AS. In addition, the combat management business in Siem Offshore do Brasil SA is included in this business division.

B.6 Interests in the Company and voting rights

Shareholders owning 5% or more of the Shares have an interest in the Company's share capital which is notifiable pursuant to the Norwegian Securities Trading Act. As of the date of this Prospectus, Siem Europe S.a r.l. owns 133,279,421 shares in the Company, equal to 34.4% of the issued Shares. Siem Europe S.a r.l. is the main shareholder of Siem Offshore Inc. and is controlled by a trust whose potential beneficiaries include members of Kristian Siem’s immediate family. Kristian Siem is a Board Member of the Company. Siem Europe S.a r.l. has underwritten the Rights Offering. If, as a result of the underwriting, Siem Europe’s ownership interest is increased above its current ownership interest and such new ownership interest is not reduced by the sale of Shares down to or below the level of the current ownership interest within four weeks, then Siem Europe will be required to make a mandatory offer for all Shares in accordance with existing regulations.

The Company is not aware of any other agreements that at a later stage may lead to change of control of the Company.

Working capital

As of the annual reporting for the fiscal year 2014, the Company was of the opinion that it had sufficient working capital for the next 12 months based on the assumptions of the OSV market at that time. Based on an unfavourable development and assumed continued soft OSV market, the shortfall for the Company’s working capital is currently expected to materialize in second half of 2015 given regular debt schedule payments and payments related to the existing newbuilding program. Accordingly, it is the Company's opinion that the Group at present time does not have sufficient working capital for its current requirements, i.e. for the next 12 months. In order to prepare the Company for the expected soft OSV market and meet the Group's current debt obligations and make payments under the Group's newbuilding program for a period of twelve months from the date of this Prospectus, the Company is dependent on additional financing of approximately USD 100 million. The additional financing will be raised through the fully underwritten Rights Offering as described in this Prospectus.

Section D – Risks D.1 Key risks

specific to the Group or its industry

Prospective investors should consider, among other factors, the following financial risks relating to the Group:

• The Group is financed by debt and equity. If the Group requires additional equity financing, it may be unable to raise new equity, or arrange new borrowing facilities, on favorable terms and in amounts necessary to conduct its ongoing and future operations.

• The Group is exposed to currency risk as part of the revenue and costs are denominated in other currencies

9

than USD. • The Group is exposed to changes in interest rates as a

portion of the long-term interest-bearing debt is subject to floating interest rates with the remaining amount subject to fixed interest rates.

• The Group's vessels operate in several jurisdictions and the Group may not be able to minimize withholding taxes when operating vessels abroad, avoiding double taxation, and minimizing corporate tax.

Prospective investors should consider, among other factors, the following risks relating to the Group and its business:

• Demand for the Group’s services and products is sensitive to oil and gas price fluctuations, low production levels and disappointing exploration results and possible political incidents.

• The Group's business is subject to possible liabilities caused by technical, operational and commercial actions, harsh weather, capsizing, groundings, collisions, engine problems, technical problems, navigation errors and other conditions beyond the Company’s control.

• Claims brought against the Group could result in a court judgment or settlement or a nature or in an amount that is not covered, in whole or in part, by the Group’s insurance or that it is in excess of the limits of the Company’s insurance coverage.

• The Group is subject to the risk of not receiving the vessels currently under construction on time, at budget and with agreed specifications.

• There is a risk that the process of integrating the new vessels into the Group will provoke unforeseen challenges which may not be effectively manageable by the organization.

• The Group's vessels' service life may be shorter than expected.

• The market balance for offshore support vessels has recently been negatively influenced by excessive newbuild activity, which has led to a stronger growth in supply of vessels than in the demand for vessels.

• The Group's operations involve the use and handling of materials that can be environmentally hazardous.

If any of the abovementioned risks were to continue or materialise, individually or together with other circumstances, they could have a material and adverse effect on the Group and/or its business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and/or prospects, which could cause a decline in the value and trading price of the New Shares, resulting in the loss of all or part of an investment in the New Shares.

D.3 Key risks specific to the securities

Prospective investors should consider, among other factors, the following risks relating to the securities described herein:

• To the extent that an existing shareholder does not exercise its Subscription Rights prior to the expiry of the Subscription Period, such shareholder will have their holdings and voting interests diluted.

• An active trading market in the Subscription Rights may

10

not develop on the Oslo Stock Exchange. • Certain existing shareholders may be unable to take up

and exercise their Subscription Rights as a matter of applicable law.

• The Company's shares are subject to price volatility for a number of reasons, including the Company's financial results and general market conditions outside the Company's control.

• If the Company raises additional funds by issuing additional equity securities, the holdings and voting interests of existing shareholders could be diluted.

If any of the abovementioned risks were to materialise, individually or together with other circumstances, they could have a material and adverse effect on the Group and/or its business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and/or prospects, which could cause a decline in the value and trading price of the New Shares, resulting in the loss of all or part of an investment in the New Shares.

Section E – Offer E.1 Net proceeds

The Rights Offering is fully underwritten by Siem Europe S.a r.l. The total expenses which will be covered by the Company in connection with the Rights Offering is expected to amount to approximately NOK 9 million.

E.2a Reasons for the Offering and use of proceeds

The Company intends to use the net proceeds to serve interest and instalments on its debt in accordance with its repayment schedules and thereby continue to reduce the Company's debt leverage.

E.3 Terms and conditions of the Offering

The Subscription Price in the Rights Offering is NOK 1.80 per New Share. The Subscription Price represents a discount of approximately 14.29% to the closing price of NOK 2.10 per Share as quoted on 10 June 2015.

Shareholders who are registered in the Company’s shareholder register in the VPS as of 18 August 2015 (the Record Date) will receive Subscription Rights. Provided that the delivery of traded Shares is made with ordinary T+2 settlement in the VPS, Shares that are acquired until and including 14 August 2015 will give the right to receive Subscription Rights, whereas Shares that are acquired from and including 17 August 2015 will not give the right to receive Subscription Rights. Existing Shareholders will be granted Subscription Rights giving a preferential right to subscribe for and be allocated New Shares in the Rights Offering. Each Existing Shareholder will be granted 1.1724 Subscription Rights for each Existing Shares registered as

11

held by such Existing Shareholder on the Record Date. The number of Subscription Rights granted to each Existing Shareholder will be rounded down to the nearest whole Subscription Right. Each Subscription Right will, subject to applicable securities laws, give the right to subscribe for and be allocated one New Share in the Rights Offering. The Subscription Rights will be credited to and registered on each Existing Shareholder’s VPS account on or about 19 August 2015 under the International Securities Identification Number (ISIN) KYG812291097. The Subscription Rights will be distributed free of charge to Existing Shareholders. The Subscription Rights may be used to subscribe for New Shares in the Rights Offering before the expiry of the Subscription Period on 2 September 2015 at 16:30 hours (CET) or be sold before the end of trading on the Oslo Stock Exchange on 31 August 2015. Acquired Subscription Rights will give the same right to subscribe for and be allocated New Shares as Subscription Rights held by Existing Shareholders on the basis of their shareholdings on the Record Date. The Subscription Rights, including acquired Subscription Rights, must be used to subscribe for New Shares before the end of the Subscription Period (i.e., 2 September 2015 at 16:30 hours (CET)) or be sold before the end of trading on the Oslo Stock Exchange on 31 August 2015. Subscription Rights which are not sold before the end of trading on the Oslo Stock Exchange on 31 August 2015 or exercised before 2 September 2015 at 16:30 hours (CET) will have no value and will lapse without compensation to the holder.

2. RISK FACTORS

An investment in the Company and the New Shares involves inherent risks. Before making an investment decision with respect to the New Shares, investors should carefully consider the risk factors set forth below and all information contained in this Prospectus, including the Financial Statements and related notes. The risks and uncertainties described in this Section 2 are the principal known risks and uncertainties faced by the Group as of the date hereof that the Company believes are relevant to an investment in the New Shares. An investment in the New Shares is suitable only for investors who understand the risks associated with this type of investment and who can afford to lose all or part of their investment. The absence of negative past experience associated with a given risk factor does not mean that the risks and uncertainties described in that risk factor are not a genuine potential threat to an investment in the New Shares. If any of the following risks were to materialise, individually or together with other circumstances, they could have a material and adverse effect on the Group and/or its business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and/or prospects, which could cause a decline in the value and trading price of the New Shares, resulting in the loss of all or part of an investment in the New Shares. The order in which the risks are presented does not reflect the likelihood of their occurrence or the magnitude of their potential impact on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and/or prospects. The risks mentioned herein could materialise individually or cumulatively. The information in this Section 2 is as of the date of this Prospectus. Furthermore, risks that the Company currently feels are not material could in the future prove to become significant to the Group.

2.1 Financial risks

2.1.1 Financial leverage

The companies in the Group are financed by debt and equity. If the Group fails to repay or refinance its loan facilities, additional equity financing may be required. There can be no assurance that the Group will be able to repay its debts or extend their re-payment schedule through re-financing of the loan agreements or not experience net cash flow shortfalls exceeding the Group’s available funding sources or to comply with a minimum cash requirements, nor can there be any assurance that the Group will be able to raise new equity, or arrange new borrowing facilities, on favorable terms and in amounts necessary to conduct its ongoing and future operations, should this be required. In the event of insolvency, liquidation or similar event relating to a subsidiary of the Company, all creditors of such subsidiary would be entitled to payment in full out of the assets of such subsidiary before the Company, as a shareholder, would be entitled to any payments. Defaults by, or the insolvency of, a subsidiary of the Company could result in the obligation of the Company to make payments under parent company guarantees issued in favour of such subsidiary.

2.1.2 Interest rates and currency fluctuations

For the Company, USD is the functional and reporting currency. The Group is exposed to currency risk as part of the revenue and costs are denominated in other currencies than USD. The Group is also exposed to currency risk due to future yard instalments in relation to shipbuilding contracts and long-term debt in various currencies other than USD. The Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk of its subsidiaries, including the development of the Brazilian real. The Shares listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange are quoted in NOK. There is a foreign exchange risk associated with conversion from the reporting currency to NOK.

14

The Group is exposed to changes in interest rates as a portion of the long-term interest-bearing debt is subject to floating interest rates with the remaining amount subject to fixed interest rates. This may affect the Company’s financial results significantly.

2.1.3 Risks related to loan agreements, restrictions on dividends and distribution

The Group’s current and future loan agreements may include terms, conditions and covenants which impose restrictions on the operations of the Group. These restrictions may negatively affect the Group’s operations, hereunder, but not limited to, the Group’s ability to meet the fierce competition in the market in which it operates.

2.1.4 Additional capital requirements

The Company may require additional capital in the future due to unforeseen liabilities or in order for it to take advantage of business opportunities. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain necessary financing in a timely manner on acceptable terms. Future share issues may result in the existing shareholders of the Company sustaining dilution to their relative proportion of the equity in the Company.

2.1.5 Risks related to possible tax liabilities

The Group will seek to optimize its tax structure to minimize withholding taxes when operating vessels abroad, avoiding double taxation, and minimizing corporate tax paid by optimally making use of the shipping taxation rules that applies. It is, however, a challenging task to optimize taxation, and there is always a risk that the Group may end up paying more taxes than the theoretical minimum, which may in turn affect the financial results negatively.

2.2 Commercial risks

2.2.1 Market risks

Demand for offshore support vessel services in connection with exploration, development and production in the offshore oil and gas industry is particularly sensitive to oil and gas price fluctuations, low production levels and disappointing exploration results as well as possible political incidents. Demand for the Group’s services and products may also be negatively impacted by increased supply of similar or other complementary vessels into the markets where the Group operates.

2.2.2 Possible liabilities

Offshore support operations are associated with considerable risks and responsibilities, including technical, operational, environmental, commercial and political risks. In addition, offshore operations may be affected by harsh weather, capsizing, groundings, collisions, engine problems, technical problems, navigation errors and other conditions beyond the Group’s control.

2.2.3 Inadequate insurance

Although the Group maintains liability insurance coverage it believes to be in line with industry practice, any claim that may be brought against the Group could result in a court judgment or settlement or a nature or in an amount that is not covered, in whole or in part, by the Group’s insurance or that it is in excess of the limits of the Company’s insurance coverage. The Group’s insurance policies also have various exclusions, including for certain geographic regions, gross negligence caused by the Company or its employees or vessel personnel and for certain pollution or environmental damage. The Group will have to pay any amounts awarded by a court or negotiated in a settlement that exceed the Company’s coverage limitations or that are not covered by the Group’s insurance, and the Group may not have, or be able to obtain, sufficient capital to pay such amounts. This may have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, revenue, profit and financial condition.

15

2.2.4 Dependence on key employees

The development of the Company is dependent on the ability of the senior management to manage the current project portfolio and obtain new and profitable contracts. Although no single person is solely instrumental in fulfilling either of these business objectives, there is no guarantee that they will be achieved to the degree expected. The Group’s business and prospects depend to a significant extent on the continued services of its key personnel. Financial difficulties and other factors could negatively impact the Group’s ability to retain key employees. The loss of any of the members of its senior management or other key personnel or the inability to attract a sufficient number of qualified employees could adversely affect its business and results of operations.

2.2.5 Delivery of vessels under construction

The Group currently has 9 vessels under construction. The process for construction of new offshore vessels is associated with numerous risks. Among the most critical risk factors in relations to such construction is the risk of not receiving the vessels on time, at budget and with agreed specifications. In addition, there is the risk of the different yards experiencing financial or operational difficulties resulting in bankruptcy or otherwise adversely affecting the construction process. The Group has obtained certain guarantees of financial compensation including refund guarantees in case of delays and non-delivery, and it has the right to cancel contracts if delivery of vessels is significantly delayed. However, no assurance can be given that all risks have been fully covered. Delays and non-delivery of the vessels under construction are likely to result in a loss of income for the Group, and could also possibly lead to breach of contract in respect of contracts entered into between the Group and third parties concerning employment of vessels.

2.2.6 Integration of vessels under construction

With 9 vessels under construction, including one under construction by the 50% owned company Secunda, and the subsequent delivery of the vessels, the scale and complexity of operations at the Group will increase going forward. There is a risk that the process of integrating the new vessels into the Group will provoke unforeseen challenges which may not be effectively manageable by the organization.

2.2.7 Service life and technical and operational risks

The service life of modern offshore support vessels is generally considered to exceed thirty years, but may ultimately depend on its efficiency and demand for such equipment. There can be no guarantees that the Group’s current and future fleet will have a long service life. The vessels may have particular unforeseen technical problems or deficiencies, new environmental requirements may be enforced, or new technical solutions or vessels may be introduced that are more in demand than the Group’s vessels, causing less demand and use of these vessels.

2.2.8 New capacity entering the market

It typically takes approximately 12-18 months from the time an offshore support vessel is ordered until it is delivered, depending on its complexity and the order backlog at the ship yards. The market balance for offshore support vessels has recently been negatively influenced by excessive newbuild activity, which has led to a stronger growth in supply of vessels than in the demand for vessels. This may consequently negatively affect the results and asset values of the Group.

16

2.2.9 The risk of new technological developments

The market for oil and gas technologies has developed towards a single competitive market for concepts and technological solutions. Companies with the best solutions will therefore achieve a strong competitive position in both markets. In the long run, a competitive advantage in products and services for offshore services will be achieved through continuous development and commercialization of new technical solutions. There can be no assurance that the Group will be able to maintain its current competitive position in this respect. The Group’s ability to secure its intangible rights legally is important since the development of the Group will to some extent depend on its technological advances. Third parties might act in violation of these rights and it is not possible to achieve protection of intangible rights in certain countries. There can be no assurance that the Group will be able to sufficiently secure its intellectual property and other intangible rights.

2.3 Other risks

2.3.1 Political risks

The Group has among others operations and investments in countries that are regarded as unsafe and politically unstable. Activities in these countries will often involve greater risk, including unfavorable changes in tax laws and other laws, partial or full expropriation, currency volatility and restrictions on currency transfer, disruption of operations because of labour disputes or political riots or wars, and some individual countries’ requirements for some local ownership interests. The Group’s operations are moreover subject to laws, regulations and supervisory rules in the country where the activity is performed. The operations of the Group may be negatively affected by changes in environmental laws and other regulations that can result in large expenses in, for example, modification of vessels and changes in the operation of vessels.

2.3.2 Environmental risks

The Group’s operations involve the use and handling of materials that can be environmentally hazardous. Environmental legislation has in general become stricter in the countries in which the Group operates. These laws and regulations might expose the Group to liability due to events caused by others or by it, even though the actions were consistent with existing laws at the time. In the event of liability arising due to the action of a customer, the Group would expect to get some contractual compensation from that customer through contractual regulations for events such as pollution and other environmental damage. However, there can be no assurance that the compensation granted in such events, if at all granted, will cover the losses suffered.

2.4 Risks related to the Shares and the Rights Offering

2.4.1 Dilution as a result of non-participation in Rights Offering.

Subscription Rights that are not exercised by the end of the Subscription Period will automatically expire without compensation to the holder. To the extent that an existing shareholder does not exercise its Subscription Rights prior to the expiry of the Subscription Period, whether by choice or due to a failure to comply with procedures set forth in Section 13, "The Rights Offering", or to the extent that an existing shareholder is not permitted to subscribe for New Shares, such existing shareholders’ proportionate ownership and voting interests in the Company after the completion of the Rights Offering will be diluted. Even if an existing shareholder elects to sell its unexercised Subscription Rights, or such Subscription Rights are sold on its behalf, the consideration it receives on the trading market for the Subscription Rights may not reflect the

17

immediate dilution in its shareholding as a result of the completion of the Rights Offering.

2.4.2 Absence of active trading market in Subscription Rights.

An active trading market in the Subscription Rights may not develop on the Oslo Stock Exchange. In addition, because the trading price of the Subscription Rights depends on the trading price of the Shares, the price of the Subscription Rights may be volatile and subject to the same risks as described for the Shares in the below risk factors. The existing volatility of the Shares may also have an effect on the volatility of the Subscription Rights.

2.4.3 Sales of Subscription Rights.

Certain existing shareholders may be unable to take up and exercise their Subscription Rights as a matter of applicable law. The Subscription Rights of such existing shareholders, with the exception of Subscription Rights held through financial intermediaries, will, to the extent possible, be sold on their behalf in the market by the Manager and the Receiving Agent pursuant to instructions from the Company, but no assurance can be given as to whether such sales may actually take place or as to the price that may be achieved. Other existing shareholders may also choose not to exercise their Subscription Rights and therefore sell them in the market. The sale of Subscription Rights by or on behalf of existing shareholders could cause significant downward pressure on, and may result in a substantial reduction in, the price of the Subscription Rights and the Shares.

2.4.4 Volatility of the share price

The trading price of the Shares could fluctuate significantly in response to quarterly variations in operating results, adverse business developments, interest rate, changes in financial estimates by securities analysts, matters announced in respect of major customers or competitors, or changes to the regulatory environment in which the Company operates. The market price of the Shares could decline due to sales of large numbers of Shares in the market or the perception that such sales could occur. Such sales could also make it more difficult for the Company to offer equity securities in the future at a time and at a price that are deemed appropriate. In recent years, the securities markets in Norway and elsewhere in Europe, have experienced a high level of price and volume volatility, and the market price of securities of many companies have experienced wide fluctuations in price which have not necessarily been related to the operating performance, underlying asset values or prospects of such companies. There can be no assurance that continual fluctuations in price will not occur. It is likely that the quoted market price for the Shares will be subject to market trends generally, notwithstanding the financial and operational performance of the Company.

2.4.5 Difficulties for foreign investors to enforce civil liabilities in Cayman Islands

The Company is organized under the laws of Cayman Islands. The rights of holders of Shares are governed by Cayman Islands law and by the Articles of Association. These rights may differ from the rights of shareholders in other jurisdictions, including Norway. As a result, it may, inter alia, be difficult for a shareholder to take legal action against the Company and/or its directors in the investor’s own jurisdiction, or to enforce against them judgments obtained in non-Cayman Islands courts.

18

2.4.6 Restrictions on ability to transfer or resell the Shares without registration under applicable securities laws

The Shares are being offered and sold pursuant to an exemption from registration under the U.S. and applicable state securities laws. Therefore, the Shares may only be transferred or resold in the U.S. in a transaction registered under or exempt from the registration requirements of the applicable securities laws, and U.S. Shareholders may be required to bear the risk of their investment for an indefinite period of time. The Company does not currently anticipate registering any resale transaction under applicable securities laws.

2.4.7 Dilution as a result of future share issue

The Company may in the future decide to offer additional Shares or other securities in order to finance new capital-intensive projects, in connection with unanticipated liabilities or expenses or for any other purposes. There is no assurance the Company will not decide to conduct further offerings of securities in the future. Depending on the structure of any future offering, certain existing shareholders may not have the ability to purchase additional equity securities. If the Company raises additional funds by issuing additional equity securities, the holdings and voting interests of existing shareholders could be diluted.

5.3 History

The Company traces its roots back to Det Søndenfjeldske-Norske Dampskipselskap AS ("DSND"), which was established in 1854. The main activity in DSND until 1964 was shipping operations, with a focus on passenger transportation. In 1964, DSND’s passenger lines service between Hamburg and Oslo was closed down, and DSND’s activity level was then limited until 1985. DSND operated as an investment company between 1985 and 1995, with investments mostly in offshore related activities. By early 1990, DSND had taken ownership of several dynamically positioned ("DP") offshore vessels. As a consequence, the board wanted to cultivate DSND’s investment profile and strategy, and other non-offshore related investments were gradually sold or spun-off from the company. By 1995, the DSND owned six special offshore vessels, of which two were used for offshore construction, two for well maintenance and two for geo-technical drilling. The company planned for further expansion into these three business areas through the addition of technology and human capital. DSND conducted eight acquisitions of assets or businesses between 1995 and 2002, which gave the company a significant position within the area of offshore maintenance and construction, both in terms of geography and resources. The acquisition provided DSND the skills and equipment to complete total construction contracts for deep water subsea installations, as well as the install of pipelines, floating production, units and riser systems, and link-up and completion of subsea production installations. On 18 October 2001, DSND announced that they were in discussions with Halliburton on combining their respective activities within subsea construction and related services. On 23 May 2002, the two companies announced that they had completed a final agreement for the creation of the 50/50 joint venture company Subsea 7 Holding Inc. (formerly named Subsea 7 Inc.), registered in the Cayman Islands. The agreement involved all substantial subsea-related assets, personnel and existing contracts from both companies to be included in the joint venture. After the merger in May 2002, both Halliburton and DSND actively contributed to the further industrial development of the Subsea 7 Holding Inc. business. During this period Subsea 7 also consolidated its non-subsea activities through the divestment of loss-making activities and by a more concentrated focus. The holding company was further relocated from Norway to the Cayman Islands in the fourth quarter of 2002 through a share swap. In 2002, DSND was renamed Siem Offshore Inc. which again subsequently changed its name to Subsea 7 Inc. in 2005. In 2004, the Company was incorporated under the name of Siem Supply Inc. as a subsidiary of the company then named Siem Offshore Inc. (now Subsea 7 Inc.). In July 2005, Subsea 7 decided that it would be beneficial for the further development of both its subsea business and its non-subsea business, as well as enhance shareholder value, to separate the subsea and the non-subsea business and give them the

25

opportunity to develop in distinct companies and under separate management. As a consequence, the Company acquired the non-subsea assets of Subsea 7 not already held by the Company and the Company was spun-off from Subsea 7. The Company listed the Shares on the Oslo Stock Exchange in August 2005. Early in 2006, the Company completed a merger with Rovde Shipping AS which owned or operated six vessels, whereof three standby vessels which have subsequently been sold. Also, during 2006, the Company acquired a majority shareholding in Siem WIS AS. Further, the Company acquired the newbuilding contract for the vessel Siem Mariner from OH Meling & Co AS, and entered into the joint venture Siem Meling Offshore DA which controlled an additional two vessels. The Company also contracted four MRSVs from Kleven Verft AS. In 2010, Petrobras chartered four AHTS vessels from the Company for a firm period of four years. The contract value for the firm period was approximately USD 285 million (NOK 1.9 billion), net of local taxes. The contracts for the four AHTS vessels were added to the Brazilian activities of ten vessels in operation and eight vessels under construction at that time. The contracts marked growth of operations in Brazil and an important step in becoming a first class operator in Brazil. In 2011, the company acquired the remaining 50% ownership interest in the shares of ODL from a subsidiary of Transocean Ltd. In the same year, the Company announced the entry into the business for submarine cable installation, repair and maintenance projects. The Company and the shareholders of Five Oceans Services ("FOS"), later to be renamed Siem Offshore Contractors GmbH, reached an agreement whereby the Company acquired all shares in FOS. The transaction combined the marine operating capacities of the Company with the engineering capabilities and project execution expertise of FOS and formed a strong entity to meet the forecasted market growth and customer requirements. In 2012, Siem Offshore Contractors, the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, announced that it had been awarded the first contract for the renewable energy market for the installation of the inner array grid cables as well as associated services for the Amrumbank West offshore wind farm ("OWF") project. The contract award marked the entry into the Offshore Renewable Energy Market for the Group. Subsequently, Siem Offshore Contractors has been successful in winning additional contracts for OWF projects. In 2013, the Company acquired 50% of Secunda. Secunda had more than two decades of offshore experience in serving the oil and gas industry and at the time of the acquisition Secunda owned and operated a fleet of six offshore support vessels on Canada’s east coast. The ownership in Secunda provided the Company with a strategic position in Canada’s east coast offshore sector with the aim to grow the business of Secunda and also to develop the Company’s current business through the position represented by Secunda. In 2014, the Company entered into agreements with a client to provide two well-intervention vessels ("WIVs" or "Well-Intervention Vessels"). The vessels are under construction in Germany and have an overall length of 158 meters, a beam of 31 meters, and built in compliance with the MODU-class (Marine Offshore Drilling Units). The agreements represented a targeted entry for the Company as vessel provider into the segment for Well-Intervention Vessels. In 2015, the Company decided to streamline its business by forming one dedicated organisation for its core offshore vessel business named "Siem Offshore OSV". The remaining business consisting of Siem Offshore Contractors, “JOIDES Resolution”, Siem WIS, the combat management business in Brazil and certain other investments will be

26

organisationally separated and operated under the name of "Siem Offshore Industrial Investments". In the period 2006 to 2015, the fleet of vessels in operation has grown from 21 to 46 vessels. The fleet growth has mainly been achieved through the construction of vessels. The vessel fleet is set to increase further with the delivery of the 9 vessels currently under construction.

5.4 Business objectives and strategy

The objective of the Company is to maintain and develop the Offshore Support Vessel (OSV) activities, continue to strengthen the Contracting Business providing services for the Offshore Windfarm Renewable Industry and other cable laying activities, and to find strategic solutions for its other investments. The Company intends to pursue a strategy of continued consolidation and growth, with the aim of becoming one of the leading owners and operators of high specification OSV’s on a global basis, and the leading contractor for the Offshore Windfarm Renewable Industry.

5.4.1 Advanced fleet

The fleet consists of 55 advanced high-end offshore support vessel, of which 9 of these are under construction. The fleet includes large Anchor Handling Tug Supply vessels, Platform Supply Vessels, Multipurpose field & ROV Support Vessel and Offshore Subsea Construction Vessels designed to meet the most challenging environments. The latest addition to the fleet is two Well-Intervention Vessels currently under construction. The Company aims at meeting the market’s demand for modern and advanced support vessels for the global offshore oil and gas industry. This is supported by the newbuilding activity undertaken by the Group, which will strengthen the Group’s offshore fleet with additional modern and, environmentally friendly and technically advanced offshore support vessels.

5.4.2 Industrial Investments

The primary activities for Siem Offshore Contractors GmbH ("SOC") include the installation, post-lay trenching, termination and testing of submarine composite cables forming the inner array grid of an OWF. SOC has been technically successful in executing its planned work scope by utilising its chartered fleet of large and high quality DP-2 installation vessels, in combination with its experienced offshore and onshore organisation. SOC will also focus on other cable laying opportunities. Siem WIS AS has designed and developed a pressure control device ("PCD") which can improve managed pressure drilling ("MPD") operations. These services are increasing due to global challenges with depleted reservoirs, drilling of additional and infield wells, and the demand to achieve a more constant well pressure during drilling and tripping operations. Global energy demand growth, combined with an increasing number of deep sea and high pressure high temperature ("HPHT") reservoirs, and increasing emphasis on safety management will lead to increased demand for MPD services. The “JOIDES Resolution” is a scientific core sampling research vessel. Its mission is to explore the Earth below the oceans of the world in order to investigate the origin and the evolution of the Earth. The ship is a dynamically positioned non-riser drilling/coring vessel capable of operating in water depths of 7,000 meters, and with holes cored to depths of 2,000 meters below the seafloor.

27

5.4.3 Professional and cost effective operations

The Group will maintain a strong focus on operating its fleet professionally and cost-effectively and in accordance with relevant laws and regulations. The Company has, and will continue to have, a small team of dedicated staff focusing on core activities such as marketing, chartering, technical supervision, finance, business development and investor relations, and may outsource services within the areas of technical management, construction supervision and certain administrative functions to well-qualified suppliers of such services.

5.6 Material agreements

The Company believes that all of its contracts, including its financing arrangements and newbuilding contracts are material for its business. However, the Company does not consider itself dependent upon any one contract in particular.

5.7 Recent trends developments

The North Sea PSV and AHTS vessel markets are continuing to experience soft rates and utilization. Additional vessels have entered the North Sea from other regions and as rig activity is reduced, this places pressure on vessel utilization and fixture rates. Vessel owners have placed vessels in lay-up and owners are considering additional lay-ups. The market for OSVs in Brazil has significantly softened following lower demand activity from Petroleo Brasileiro SA (“Petrobras”). When disclosing its five year business plan, Petrobras announced reduced capital expenditures and highlighted cost cutting measures with the intension to reduce leverage going forward. In order for Petrobras to reduce its cost base, there is an increased risk that Petrobras will initiate renegotiation of existing contracts with suppliers, including vessel owners. It is in the opinion of the Company that an increased risk of such contract renegotiations or even contract cancellations for certain vessels of the Company exists. The outlook for the OSV market is expected to remain soft for several years due to reduced investments in the offshore oil and gas industry following lower current and future commodity prices for oil and gas, which again reduces the demand for vessels and puts pressure on utilisation and fixture rates, coupled with increased supply of vessels as more vessels under construction are delivered from yards. In response to the soft OSV market, the Company has decided to take two vessels, “Siem Aquamarine” and “Siem Diamond”, out of operations and into lay-up. Siem Offshore Contractors experience steady tendering activity in the OFW market with scheduled marine installation activities taking place in 2017 and 2018 and for operations and maintenance contracts to be awarded in 2015. There has been no significant change in the financial or trading position of the Company since the end of the last financial period for which interim financial information has been published. The Company has in connection with preparing the reporting of its second

36

quarter 2015 results considered the fair value of its assets versus the respective book values. It is clear that such considerations will result in impairments on vessel values in the second quarter 2015 results. There has been no material adverse change in the prospects of the issuer since the date of its last published audited financial statements.

5.8 Investments

The Company has 9 vessels under construction, of which six vessels are under construction in Poland with Remontowa Shipbuilding, two in Germany with Flensburger Schiffbau-Gesellschaft and one in Brazil with ETP Shipyard with completion at Wilson & Sons. These 9 vessels include one OSRV scheduled for delivery in 2015, four dual-fuel PSVs with one for delivery in 2015 and three in 2016, one Cable-Lay Vessel ("CLV") for delivery in 2016, one AHTS vessel for delivery in 2015 and two Well-Intervention vessels for delivery in 2016. All of the vessels under construction will be financed with a combination of mortgage debt and equity. Yard instalments for shipbuilding contracts are normally paid with 20% during construction and 80% at delivery, alternatively 10% during construction and 90% at delivery. The below table provides an overview of the Company’s committed future yard instalments per end of first quarter 2015 and associated secured mortgage debt financing; Amounts in USD million Committed Future Yard Instalments 2015 2016 Total OSRVs – Brazil 8.1 0.0 8.1 PSVs - Poland 54.5 103.3 157.8 CLV – Poland 0.0 55.5 55.5 WIV - Germany 61.2 220.0 281.2 Total Committed Future Yard Instalments 123.8 378.8 502.6

5.9 Principal markets

The principal markets for the Company is currently the North Sea, Brazil, the Gulf of Mexico, the Mediterranean and West Africa. The following is the management’s assessment of the Company’s position in different areas:

5.9.1 The North Sea

Siem Offshore holds a strong position and market share in this region, with focus on supply services by AHTS, PSV and OSCV. Furthermore, Siem Offshore recently delivered its first dual fuelled PSV, for the use of either LNG or Marine Diesel Oil, to Total E&P Norge AS and a "sister vessel" will be delivered to A/S Norske Shell in second half of 2015. Both vessels will have the most modern solutions for fire-fighting and emergency preparedness and are chartered out on multiple year contracts.

5.9.2 Brazil

General

The Brazilian market is highly regulated and only locally established companies are allowed to operate there. Currently there are approximately 490 vessels operating, of which approximately 50% is Brazilian flagged, while the foreign vessels are all under temporary import conditions. There are offshore drilling and production activities all along the thousands of miles of the Brazilian coast, but the main oil provinces are Campos Basin, offshore Macaé (by far the largest), Sergipe Basin offshore Aracaju and Rio Grande do Norte, offshore Guamaré. Siem Offshore Do Brazil has onshore facilities in Macaé and Aracaju. Promising new areas are Santos Basin and Vitória Basin. The main client is Petrobras, the state-controlled oil company, but there are other oil companies expanding its offshore activities in Brazil, among them Shell, BP, TOTAL, CHEVRON, STATOIL, Queiroz Galvão, etc. Most of the contracts are long term, being up to eight years term for new building vessels to two/four years for foreign vessels. The spot market is still limited, but is expected to develop in the coming years. There are currently 150 Offshore Support Shipping companies duly authorized by ANTAQ governmental agency, however, the main players are in the number of 50 companies and several are subsidiary of major international players. The Company has during 2015 scaled down its operations in Brazil following four AHTS vessels ending firm contracts with Petrobras without further extension.

Engineering Services

Siem Offshore Do Brazil is also a main provider of specialized engineering services to the Brazilian Navy. Among its successfully contracts are: the Combat Management Systems supply for six frigates of Niteroi class, the Combat Management Systems supply for the Barroso corvette, the Combat Management Systems supply for the aircraft carrier São Paulo, and several other jobs related to system integration, simulators and navy specialized training. Besides, there are actions on course to apply these engineering capabilities on the oil and gas market, seeking future opportunities.

5.9.3 The Gulf of Mexico, the Mediterranean and West Africa

The Company has successfully entered into the market in West Africa, which is expected to grow over the coming years, with demand for different types of vessels for general support, maintenance and special services.

38

The Company has successfully operated in the market in the Gulf of Mexico for about two years. It is expected that this market will grow over the coming years, with strong demand for different types of vessels for general support, maintenance and special services.

6. INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

This section discusses the industry in which the Group operates, which is the offshore support vessel industry. Certain parts of the information in this Section relating to market environment, market developments, growth rates, market trends, industry trends, competition and similar information are estimates based on data compiled by professional organizations, consultants and analysts; in addition to market data from other external and publicly available sources, and the Company's knowledge of the markets, see Section 4.1.2 "General information—Industry and market data". The following discussion contains Forward-looking Statements, see Section 4.3 "General information—Forward-looking statements". Any forecast information and other Forward-looking Statements in this Section are not guarantees of future outcomes and these future outcomes could differ materially from current expectations. Numerous factors could cause or contribute to such differences, see Section 2 "Risk factors" for further details.

6.1 Introduction

Offshore support vessels perform a wide range of services related to construction and decommissioning work, pipe laying, support of drilling rigs and floating and fixed installations. Offshore support vessels can be divided into three main segments; AHTS, PSVs, and various types of offshore subsea vessels (OSCVs), which are further described in Section 6.3, "—The Offshore Support Vessel market". The Group owns vessels in all of the above segments. Demand for PSVs are mainly related to support of offshore platforms, rigs and floating production units, with respect to transporting cargo between such installations/units and supply bases onshore. PSVs have liquid tanks, dry bulk tanks and deck area for transportation of various cargoes such as mud, brine, cement, water, oil, diesel, pipes food, and other supplies related to production/operation of the offshore rigs/platforms. AHTS vessels can perform the same duties, but are equipped with winches and towing capacity, enabling them to lift and position anchors, tow rigs and floating production units that either cannot propel themselves, or where towing is more economical due to fuel costs. Towing of new fixed platforms or cargo barges are also relatively frequent tasks for these vessels. A large portion of AHTSs’ duties is related to anchoring up offshore rigs and floating production units. Even though many new rigs have DP systems that enable them to hold their position using navigation systems and own thrusters, and thus do not necessarily require the use of anchors, such DP systems require the constant use of the rig’s engines, it is often more economical to be anchored up, especially if the rig is expected to be in the same position for several weeks. OSCVs comprise of pipelay vessels, dive support vessels, heavylift / derrick barges, offshore construction vessels, seismic support vessels, Well-Intervention Vessels and survey vessels. These types of vessels are normally utilized in the installation, light construction, inspection, and maintenance and decommissioning of subsea equipment related to the development of oil and gas offshore. The vessels may also be utilized within certain non-oil and gas related segment, e.g. the offshore wind industry.

6.2 Demand and key drivers

The key demand drivers for offshore support vessels are the level of activity and investments in the oil and gas sector. The oil companies’ exploration and production activities, normally referred to as “E&P spending”, are based on the world’s demand for oil and gas. Furthermore, demolition of old platforms and installations and remedial work (e.g. in the US Gulf after hurricane damages) are new important areas of work for offshore support vessels. Together with a massive growing maintenance requirement on existing drilling units, installations and pipelines worldwide due to ageing and corrosion and need for repair and upgrading, this also has great influence on the demand for

offshore support vessels. The below chart shows the Brent oil price development since 2010 as well as the forward curve. Brent oil price (USD/bbl)

Source: Managers Research, Ecowin, Bloomberg (June 2015) In the years 2011 to 2013, oil prices (Brent) have traded in the USD 90/bbl to USD 120/bbl range, with yearly averages being stable around USD 110/bbl. This was a supportive level for an increasing spending environment. In mid 2014 the oil price peaked at around USD 115/bbl and from there the oil price saw a dramatic fall down to about USD 50/bbl around year end 2014. During 2015 oil prices have been volatile and trading in the range of around USD 50-65/bbl. The forward curve shows points to a gradual and modest increase in oil prices over the next years, with an average price of USD 68 and 70/bbl for 2016 and 2017, respectively. The level of E&P spending is a function of the prevailing oil prices. Naturally, the dramatic fall in the oil price has forced oil companies to reduce their investments and overall offshore activity. With years of stable oil prices above USD 100/bbl, the oil companies budgeting prices have increased and hence, with the current oil price environment, many projects that previously were profitable are now under review. On the other hand, reduced activity and oil production should over time help the market balance and gradually provide support for increasing oil prices again.

As seen in the above chart one saw strong growth in E&P spending in the years prior to the financial crisis with annual growth rates of 15-21% in the period 2005-2008. Following the financial crisis E&P spending saw a 12% decline in 2009 before bouncing back to double digit growth in the period 2010-2012. In 2014 E&P spending growth was down to 2% while 2015 is expected to show a double digit decline. Going forward, E&P spending growth is naturally dependent on the development in oil prices. Currently there is a lot of uncertainty in the market with oil companies holding back on their investments and hence providing limited support for a quick rebound to historic growth. Another key driver for the offshore support vessel market is the offshore drilling activity. Floater rigs demand (# rigs)

Jack-up rigs demand (# rigs)

Source: Managers Research, based on HIS Petrodata (June 2015) As seen from the above charts, the demand for drilling rigs has declined substantially over the last months, both for floaters and jack-ups, and thus providing a challenging market backdrop for the offshore support vessels.

6.3 The Offshore Support Vessel market

6.3.1 General introduction

The offshore support vessel (OSV) market can be divided into several categories and segments. The main categories are platform supply vessel (PSV), anchor-handling tugs supply (AHTS) and offshore subsea construction vessels (OSCV). In addition, there are various niche segments being more specialized. The Group owns and operates vessels within all these categories. The market for offshore support vessels is fragmented across segments and regions, with many owners owning/controlling fleets that can be characterized small to medium in terms of both size and global reach. Excluding the smaller sizes in PSV and AHTS and extracting PSV > 3,000 dwt and AHTS > 12,000, the top 5 operators controlled 29% of the global fleet. Top 3 players Edison Chouest (US), Tidewater (US) and Bourbon Offshore (FR) each control 5-10% of the global fleet. An overview of the larger companies within the PSV/AHTS market is shown below. Siem Offshore ranks among the top 15 within this group, but with the larger operators controlling significantly more

6.3.2 Regional overview

The North Sea area consists mainly of the continental shelfs of Norway, United Kingdom, Denmark and Netherlands. Due to the large number of oil companies and limited distances in the region (Barents Sea being an exception), the market has seen a large spot market both within the PSV and AHTS segment develop since the 80s. In addition, the market provides opportunities for various term contract lengths various from months to several years. While Statoil has a large share of the market in Norway, the market is well diversified in terms of oil- and service-companies. With the well functioning spot market, the region is often referred to as a reasonable proxy on the overall global supply/demand balance since idle vessels in other regions (mainly Med’, West-Africa and Brazil) tend to migrate into the region. Brazil is one of the key markets for offshore support vessels. The market is characterized by the national oil company Petrobras being the dominant player and historically offering long-term contract opportunities in various segments, attracting operators on a global basis. The region has a limited spot market and term contracts have been in the range of 1-8 years. The country offers preference towards locally built tonnage both on contract duration and by differentiating tender processes. Brazil is also highly regulated in terms of local content requirements. USGOM is characterized by the Jones Act regulation for the PSV and AHTS segment, which means operators need to comply with this act to be able to qualify for operations in this region. Consequently, the region is only served by US operators. With the Jones Act follows also a large domestic shipbuilding industry. The region holds a large spot market as well as a term market with various contract durations. West Africa holds various regional markets related to each country in the region. The largest markets being Angola and Nigeria. Each market is unique in terms of local

content requirements. The region offers smaller spot markets, but by nature is characterized as various terms markets. The region may offer certain challenges related to logistics, including dry-docking and maintenance of vessels/equipment. Asia is similar to West Africa in terms of various local/regional markets. While the port of Singapore provides a regional hub for vessels standing idle or in-between contracts, there is no single spot market in the region and also term markets are characterized by the country of operation. The market is also characterized by being the largest new build market in the offshore support vessel industry with the key build country being China.

6.3.3 Platform Supply Vessels

The supply vessel market is usually divided into two main areas, namely vessels for towing and anchor handling, and for general supply to offshore units (rigs, barges, fixed installations or shore bases), in the industry called general supply duties. Such tasks can be carried out by both AHTS vessels and PSVs. However, the operation of a PSV is as a main rule limited to carry out storage duties and supply duties. Both categories of vessels can be divided further into sub segments according to their capabilities, as a number of such vessels do have cross-over capacities into other categories and related segments. Oil Recovery, Fire Fighting, ROV Surveys and Standby ERRV services are some examples of such capacities. The market for offshore vessels was very strong in most of 2005-2008, reaching record levels in the North Sea. The market has been more volatile since 2009 with generally lower and more fluctuating fleet utilization, and as a result, also fluctuating day rates for the vessels. PSVs are specifically designed for transport of all required supplies, either as deck cargo or under deck in dedicated tank systems to and from offshore installations. On deck the vessels may carry containers, drill pipes and other equipment. Under deck the vessels may carry a variety of different fluids in separate tanks, like mud & brine, cement or other dry bulk, fresh water, fuel and/or special products like methanol and drill cuttings for the drilling program. PSVs are mainly classified according to the following capacities:

- Size of free deck area

- Total carrying capacity in dead weight tons (dwt)

- Type and capacity of special tanks carrying mud & brine, fuel, dry bulk, methanol etc.

Historically, a PSV with dwt above 2,000 have been considered large. However, as the trend continues towards larger and larger vessels, PSVs with dwt between 3,000 and 4,000 are now considered medium-sized and vessels with a carrying capacity above 4,000 dwt are considered large. Classified by deck area, this corresponds to approximately 500-800 m2 for medium-sized vessels, and above 800 m2 for large vessels. Siem Offshore currently has twelve PSVs in operation, of which six can be classified as medium size, and six are classified as large. Furthermore, Siem Offshore has four large PSVs under construction. The PSV segment has seen substantial contracting of newbuilds over the last years and there are still quite a large number of vessels with scheduled delivery in 2015 and 2016. It is worth mentioning that a substantial part of the order book consists of smaller and less advanced vessels mainly under construction in the Far East and one should expect

44

significant delays as well as potential cancellations. Potentially mitigating the order book is the relatively significant number of vessels built in the 1980s still in service. We have already seen an increasing number of older vessels being phased out, and given the current challenging market, this trend is likely to continue. Worldwide PSV fleet by building year

6.3.4 Anchor Handling Tug-Supply vessels

AHTS vessels are specifically designed for towing and anchor handling operations of rigs and other offshore units. Furthermore, the vessels are often prepared for fire fighting (FiFi), rescue operations (standby) and oil recovery (ORO) capabilities, as well as additional opportunities like crane for ROV operations, A-frame, large AHC crane for construction and deepwater work. The AHTS is, like a PSV, also used for general supply service between shore bases and platforms, transporting different types and grades of cargo both on deck, as well as under deck in tank systems. In the case where the oil activity is in deeper waters, the anchor handling operations become heavier and focus is put on the power of the AHTS vessels, station keeping and winch capabilities, in addition to the vessels stability, capacities and functionality in general. A general trend for the segment has been to provide for safer and more efficient operations in more challenging conditions, as well as various HSE issues for safer operations for the vessels crew. AHTS vessels are mainly rated according to their towing and anchor handling capacities and capabilities, propulsion and bollard pull. Break horse power (BHP) is the most common parameter for categorizing AHTS vessels. The AHTS fleet is normally divided into vessels with less than 12,000 BHP (small sized), between 12,000 and 16,000 BHP (medium size), between 16,000 and 20,000 BHP (large) and above 20,000 BHP (very large). Owners have traditionally focused on vessels with between 12,000 and 18,000 BHP, but with a push in recent years for the larger vessels above 20,000 BHP. Due to the fact that the offshore industry has increased its presence in deeper water and outer areas where more and special capacity will be required, and also to be able to work in various markets, Siem Offshore has decided to focus on the high-end of the AHTS market, i.e. vessels above 20,000 BHP. In 2011 Siem Offshore completed a new build program of ten AHTS vessels in the category "very large", of which eight vessels are owned by Siem Offshore. The AHTS newbuilds are of VS 491 design, which meets the current and future requirements of the industry serving the next generation of drilling rigs and floaters for global offshore and deep water work. The AHTS vessels are of designs promoting favorable fuel consumption and consequently low emissions as a result of their optimal hull lines, Selective Catalysts Reduction (SCR) and hybrid propulsion, high speed and large all round capacities.

AHTS newbuilds have bollard pull of 275 tons, prepared for ROV operations, 60 men accommodation and have a lot of optionality such as A-frame (300t), large AHC crane (300t) etc. Similar to the PSV market, there are also quite a number of AHTS vessels under construction with the majority being scheduled for delivery in 2015 and 2016. Also for the AHTS vessels, a large number of vessels are smaller and less sophisticated vessels being built in the Far East where one should expect delays and potential cancellations. There are also a large number of AHTS vessels that are built in the early 1980s which in the current market environment are obvious phase out candidates. Worldwide AHTS fleet by building year

6.3.5 Offshore Subsea Construction Vessels

OSCV, often quoted as subsea vessels, are utilized in the installation, light construction, inspection and maintenance of subsea equipment related to the extraction of oil and gas offshore. The vessels may also be utilized within certain non-oil and gas related segment, e.g. the offshore wind industry. The OCSVs can further be divided into various subcategories:

- Pipelay Vessels; - Dive Support Vessels - Heavylift/Derrick Barges - Offshore Construction Vessels - Seismic Support Vessels - Well-Intervention Vessels - Survey Vessels

Siem Offshore currently has a wide range of vessels in the OSCV category, including a series of four vessels operating in the subsea support/IMR role along with two MRSV (Multipurpose field & ROV support vessels). The Group also has certain vessels in operation and under construction targeting the offshore wind market and the well intervention market. The OSCV segment in today’s form is a relatively new segment as the majority of vessels have been ordered since the mid 2000s following the oil company’s focus on subsea solutions. There are however quite a few older vessels, but these are generally less sophisticated and not comparable to standards seen on modern vessels. Prior to the financial crisis there was large ordering activity with vessels being delivered in 2008 and 2010. Newbuild deliveries then saw a drop to around 40 vessels per year in 2011 to 2013

before increasing to around 50 vessels in 2014. For 2015 and 2016 the number of vessels scheduled for delivery is estimated to increase to around 70-80 per year. Delivery of construction vessels*

Source: Managers Research, based on HIS Petrodata June 2015) *Accommodation, Bury/Trench, Derrick, Derrick Pipelay, Diving support, Multiservice, Pipelay, ROV Support, Support, Well Intervention Over the last years there has been a lot of subsea activity. The chart below shows the total subsea order intake for the three major subsea contractors from 2003 to 2014 which represents a good indication with respect to demand for subsea vessels. As seen from the chart their order intake was relatively stable at around USD 15 billion per year in the period 2006 to 2010, while increasing to around USD 26 billion in 2014. Following the collapse in oil prices lately, 2015 is likely to show a significant decline compared to 2014. Subsea order intake (USDbn)

6.4 Rate development and utilisation

The offshore support vessel market is cyclical, and spot market rates in the North Sea region are characterized by significant volatility. This relates mostly to the underlying cyclicality of the business, but also to variations between summer and winter season and to changes within shorter time periods. In particular, the summer season is generally characterized by high activity levels. To a large extent, this can be attributed to the weather conditions in the North Sea Region. The current spot rates for PSVs in the North Sea are very low and insufficient to cover costs. The weak market has triggered several operators to lay up vessels in order to cut losses. Rates for longer contracts generally fluctuate less, but is highly correlated with the spot market. As mentioned above, the regions outside the North Sea do not have as visible and efficient spot market. The development and status in the North Sea region gives a good indication of the conditions of charters elsewhere in the world. Other regions are characterized more by medium to long term charters, but facing the same negative trends on both rates and utilization as seen in the North Sea area. While the industry trend has been operators having preference for newer and more efficient vessels (both fuel and operational) and consequently improving utilization vs. older tonnage, the weak market trends are seen across vessel segments (size and age). The following chart shows monthly average spot rates from 2002 until today for large AHTS vessels: AHTS spot dayrates (monthly average, GBP/d)

Source: Managers Research, based on Clarksons (June 2015) North Sea AHTS rates have seen large fluctuations in recent years with a gradually softening late 2014 and into 2015, although shorter periods of tightness are still observed. With softer activity levels, market participants also prepare for soft markets by stacking vessels as also is the case in the PSV segment.

The figure below shows the corresponding data for large PSV vessels: PSV spot dayrates (monthly average, GBP/d)

Source: Managers Research, based on Clarksons (June 2015) The PSV spot market has been weak since late 2014 and North Sea PSV rates are touching levels not seen since 2002-04 and briefly in 2009-10. On an overall basis the combined utilization of AHTS and PSVs have been around 90% in the years following the financial crisis except for 2014 when utilization dropped to around 88%. The market has further deteriorated in 2015 and currently a significant number of vessels have been put in lay-up as a consequence of lower activity amongst oil companies and too many available vessels in the market.

The loan facilities established to finance the construction and acquisitions of the Company's vessels are secured by, a first priority mortgage on the applicable vessels, and in most cases also security in earnings, charter contracts, insurance and hedging arrangements. As of end first quarter 2015, the Company had approximately USD 160 million in outstanding unsecured bond debt with maturity in January 2018 and March 2019.

7.3 Working Capital Statement

As of the annual reporting for the fiscal year 2014, the Company was of the opinion that it had sufficient working capital for the next 12 months based on the assumptions of the OSV market at that time. Based on an unfavourable development and assumed continued soft OSV market, the shortfall for the Company’s working capital is currently expected to materialize in second half of 2015 given regular debt schedule payments and payments related to the existing newbuilding program. Accordingly, it is the Company's opinion that the Group at present time does not have sufficient working capital for its current requirements, i.e. for the next 12 months. In order to prepare the Company for the expected soft OSV market and meet the Group's current debt obligations and make payments under the Group's newbuilding program for a period of twelve months from the date of this Prospectus, the Company is dependent on additional financing of approximately USD 100 million. The additional financing will be raised through the fully underwritten Rights Offering as described in this Prospectus. As further described in Section 13.20 "The Rights Offering—The underwriting", the underwriting commitment of Siem Europe S.a r.l. for the Rights Offering is conditional upon certain events not taking place. The Company is confident that the Rights Offering will be successful, or that if it is unsuccessful, that the Company may call upon the underwriting commitment.

7.4 Debt instalments falling due over the next 5 years, as of year-end 2014.

The book value of mortgaged assets consisted of non-current tangible assets and portion of the accounts receivables and amounted to USD 1,764 million at year end 2014. For the first 3 months of 2015 the company has repaid debt in the amount of approximately USD 25 million and drawn approximately USD 1 million. Current cost of debt is approximately 4.5% p.a., including the effect of interest rate derivatives. In July 2015, the company announced that it had received approval from all of its financing banks for the finance plan of the Company. The approvals includes a three year extension of the Company's NOK 2.5 billion credit facility for six anchor handling tug supply vessels, which was due to expire in November 2015. As a result of this, a balloon repayment of approximately USD 200 million maturing in 2015 in the table above will not materialize, but the facility will continue on existing repayment profile until 2018. Thus, accordingly reducing the applicable balloon repayment in 2018. The Company will finance its debt and yard commitments, for the remaining period with vessels under construction, through the proceeds of this Rights Offering, existing capital and revenue generated through the ordinary course of business

7.5 Contingent and Indirect Indebtedness

As at 31 December 2014 the Group had the following contingent or indirect indebtedness in the form of guarantees.

1) Contractual guarantees to the Brazilian Navy are issued by Siem Offshore do Brasil SA. 2) Contractual guarantees provided by the Company are security for contracting parties of Siem Offshore Contractors GmbH. Such guarantees are for advance payments received at USD 27.3 million and performance guarantees at USD 109.3 million and guarantees related to tax cases in Brazil of USD 4.7 million.

• approve the annual external audit plan and to review with the external auditors the nature, scope and results of their audit, and any control issues raised by them;

10.10 The Articles of Association and certain aspects of Cayman Islands law

The Company is an exempted company incorporated with limited liability in the Cayman Islands. This means that the Company may not trade in the Cayman Islands with any person, firm or corporation, except in furtherance of the business of the Company carried on outside of the Cayman Islands.

The Company and its activities are primarily governed by the Companies Law (2013 Revision), the Company's memorandum of association and the Articles of Association. As the Company is listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange, certain aspects of its activities are governed by Norwegian law.

The constitutional documents of the Company consist of the Company's memorandum of association and the Articles of Association. The Articles of Association are significantly more extensive than the articles of association of a Norwegian company. The Articles of

74

Association deal primarily with the Company's administration, internal regulation and the distribution of rights and authorities between the shareholders and the directors.

75

Company objective Pursuant to section 3 of the Company's memorandum of association, the objective of the Company is unrestricted and the Company shall have full power to carry out any objective not prohibited by law. General Meeting Under Cayman Islands law, there is no requirement to hold an annual general meeting. However, pursuant to the Articles of Association, the Company shall hold annual General Meetings each year. Any annual General Meeting shall be held at the time and place as decided by the board of directors. All General Meetings other than annual General Meetings shall be called extraordinary General Meetings. The annual General Meeting shall be called by the board of directors. Additionally, the Board of Directors shall, on the requisition of a shareholder or shareholders’ holding in aggregate no less than 10% of the issued Shares which as at that date carry the right to vote at the General Meeting, forthwith proceed to convene an extraordinary General Meeting. A General Meeting shall be called by not less than 14 clear days notice in writing, except when consent to a shorter period is given in accordance with the provisions set out in the Articles of Association. The notice shall specify the time, place, and agenda of the meeting, particulars of the resolutions to be considered at the meeting and the general nature of that business to be conducted at the General Meeting. The notice convening a General Meeting to pass a special resolution shall specify the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution. For all purposes a quorum for a General Meeting is constituted by one or more members present in person holding not less than one third of the issued shares of the Company. A resolution of a General Meeting is adopted by ordinary resolution unless the Companies Law (2013 Revision) or the Articles of Association specify otherwise. "Ordinary resolution" means a resolution passed by a simple majority of the shareholders as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy, at a General Meeting, and includes a unanimous written resolution. In computing the majority when a poll is demanded regard shall be had to the number of votes to which each member is entitled by the Articles of Association. "Special Resolution" means a resolution passed by a majority of at least two thirds of the shareholders as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy, at a General Meeting. Each of the Shares represents one vote on a poll in a General Meeting. Shareholders may be represented in person or by proxy. In the case of an equality of votes the chairman of the meeting shall be entitled to a second or casting vote. Amendments of the Articles of Association Subject to the provisions of the Companies Law (2013 Revision) and the provisions of the Articles of Association as regards the matters to be dealt with by ordinary resolution, the Articles of Association may be amended by the passing of a special resolution.

76

Equity and share capital increases The Companies Law, the Company's memorandum of association and the Articles of Association draws a distinction between authorised and issued share capital. The Company’ authorised share capital dictates the maximum number of shares which the Company is authorised to issue and such information is set out in the Articles of Association. The authorised share capital of the Company may be increased by the passing of an ordinary resolution at the General Meeting. The Board of Directors may allot, issue, grant options over or otherwise dispose of shares to such persons, at such times and on such other terms as they think proper (subject to the Companies Law (2013 Revision) and the Articles of Association) without any further consent or approval by the shareholders. Shareholders in the Company do not have pre-emptive rights in later capital increases. Capital reductions A reduction of the share capital is subject to the passing of a special resolution at the General Meeting. The same majority is required for a reduction of the Company’s capital redemption reserve fund. Classes of shares The Shares are currently not divided into different classes. However, the Articles of Association establish a right to divide the share capital into different classes of shares with varied rights attaching to the shares of such different classes. According to the Articles of Association, modifications in the rights attached to the Shares, such as dividing the shares into different classes of shares with different rights attached, require the written consent of at least 2/3 of the holders of the issued shares of that class or the passing of a resolution passed by a majority of not less than two thirds of the votes cast at a separate meeting of the holders of the shares of the applicable class. Purchase of shares Subject to the Companies Law (2013 Revision), to relevant regulations of any securities exchange or other system on which the shares of the Company may be listed or otherwise authorised for trading (an, "Exchange"), and to any rights conferred on the holders of any class of shares, the Company has the power:

(i) to purchase or otherwise acquire any of its own shares, provided either:

(a) the manner of purchase has first been authorised by the Company in general meeting;

(b) such purchases are made in open market transactions on an Exchange;

(c) such purchases may be effected from time to time, as authorised by the Company in general meeting, at a price per share no higher than the average of the closing prices of said shares on an Exchange, for the five days on which said shares are traded immediately preceding any such purchase (the “Average Market Price”);

(d) such purchases may be effected from time to time, as authorised

77

by the Company in general meeting at a price per share in excess of the Average Market Price, provided that: the shares to be purchased shall be in blocks consisting of a number equal to or greater than five per cent. of the number of shares then outstanding and the price to be paid therefore shall have been found to be fair in a written opinion of independent investment bankers who have been selected for the purpose by a disinterested committee of Directors; or

(e) an offer is made to all shareholders of the Company to purchase a specified number of shares at a specified price, all tenders of shares made in response to such offer to be accepted pro rata in the event that more shares are to be tendered than the Company has offered to purchase, except that all tenders of 99 shares or less may be accepted in full at the discretion of the Directors,

provided that, the Company shall not, in any 12 month period, purchase in aggregate more than such number of shares as shall be equal to 10 per cent. of the lowest number of shares in issue during such period except to the extent authorised by special resolution;

(ii) to purchase or otherwise acquire warrants for the subscription or purchase of its own shares; and

(iii) to give, directly or indirectly, by means of a loan, a guarantee, a gift, an indemnity, the provision of security or otherwise howsoever, financial assistance for the purpose of or in connection with a purchase or other acquisition made or to be made by any person of any shares or warrants in the Company. The Company may pay for such shares or warrants in any manner authorised or not prohibited by law, including out of capital. Should the Company purchase or otherwise acquire its own shares or warrants, neither the Company nor the Board shall be required to select the shares or warrants to be purchased or otherwise acquired rateably or in any other manner as between the holders of shares or warrants of the same class or as between them and the holders of shares or warrants of any other class or in accordance with the rights as to dividends or capital conferred by any class of shares.

Transfer of shares The Shares are generally freely transferable and there are no restrictions on trading in the Shares. The Shares are registered in the VPS, and are tradable in the same manner as other VPS registered shares. The Board of Directors may, however, in its absolute discretion, refuse to register a transfer of any shares which are not fully paid up or on which the Company has a lien. In accordance with the Articles of Association, the board of directors shall decline to register the transfer of any share to a person where the board of directors is of the opinion that such transfer might breach any law or requirement of any authority or any approved stock exchange until it has received such evidence as it may require satisfying itself that no such breach would occur. Dividends Subject to the Companies Law (2013 Revision) and the Articles of Association, the Board of Directors may declare dividends and distributions on the Company’s issued Shares and authorise payment of the same out of the funds which are lawfully available. Dividends or

78

distributions are payable only out of the profits, realised or unrealised, or out of the share premium account or as otherwise permitted by law. Each of the Shares carries equal rights to dividend and equal rights to any surplus in the event of liquidation. The Shares will be eligible for any dividends being declared and paid immediately upon the share issue. A Share will be deemed to be issued at the time that the Company's register of shareholders is updated to reflect such issue and the details of the applicable shareholder. The Articles of Association provide that the Company may deduct from any dividend or distribution payable to any shareholder all sums of money (if any) presently payable by him to the Company on account of calls or otherwise. The Companies Law (2013 Revision) and the Articles of Association do not provide for any time limit after which entitlement to dividends lapses. Subject to various exceptions, Cayman Islands law provides a limitation period of three years from the date on which an obligation is due. Any future payments of dividends on the Shares will be denominated in NOK, and will be paid to the shareholders through the VPS. Board of directors According to the Articles of Association, the Board of Directors shall consist of not less than three or more than seven persons (exclusive of alternate directors). The Company may, by ordinary resolution, increase or reduce the limits in the number of directors and may appoint and remove any director from the Board of Directors. A resolution in writing (in one or more counterparts) signed by each and every one of the Directors or all the members of a committee of the Directors shall be as valid and effectual as if it had been passed at a meeting of the Directors, or committee of Directors as the case may be, duly convened and held. The powers of the Board of Directors Subject to limitations in the Companies Law (2013 Revision), the Articles of Association and any direction given by special resolution by the General Meeting, the business of the Company shall be managed by the board of directors who may exercise all the powers of the Company. A duly convened meeting of the Board of Directors at which a quorum is presented may exercise all powers exercisable by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors has full power to charge any of the Company’ assets and to borrow money without any sanction by the members at a General Meeting. The Board of Directors may, by power of attorney or otherwise, appoint a company, firm, person or body of persons to be the attorney or authorised signatory of the Company for such purposes and with such powers, authorities and discretions as the Board of Directors thinks fit, provided however that this does not exceed the powers vested in the Board of Directors by the Articles of Association. The Board of Directors may also authorise any attorney or authorised signatory to sub-delegate any or all powers, authorities and discretions vested in him. Furthermore, the Board of Directors may delegate any of its powers, authorities and discretions, including the power to sub-delegate, to any committees consisting of one or more directors. Every committee so formed shall conform to any regulations that may from time to time be imposed upon it by the Board of Directors.

79

Directors’ interests A Director may be engaged by the Company for the purpose of performing services which go beyond his ordinary duties as a director, but he may not be the auditor of the Company. The director performing such services for the Company is entitled to such extra remuneration as the board of directors may decide. A Director or a company owned by him may also enter into commercial agreements with the Company provided that the relevant Director declares his interest in such contract at the board meeting where the contract is first considered. Subject to the provisions of the Articles of Association, a Director (or his alternate director in his absence) shall be at liberty to vote in respect of any contract or transaction in which he is interested provided that the nature of the interest of any director or alternate director in any such contract or transaction shall be disclosed by him at or prior to its consideration and any vote thereon. Members of the administrative, management and supervisory bodies The management of the business of the Company is vested in the Board of Directors, whom may establish any committees or any person to be manager or agent for the Company’ affairs. Furthermore, the Board of Directors may appoint a secretary for such term, at such remuneration and upon such conditions as it may think fit, and any secretary so appointed may be removed by the Board of Directors. Annual accounts According to the Articles of Association, the financial year shall end on 31 December and begin on 1 January in each year, unless otherwise prescribed by the Board of Directors. The auditor shall audit the profit and loss account and the balance sheet of the Company and shall prepare a report which shall be laid before the shareholders at the annual General Meeting each year. The auditor’s report shall be open for inspection by any shareholder. Winding up According to the Articles of Association, in case of a liquidation of the Company the following shall apply; (i) if the assets available for distribution amongst the members shall be insufficient to repay whole of the Company’ issued share capital, such assets shall be distributed so that, as nearly as may be, the losses shall be borne by the members in proportion to the par value of the shares held by them, and (ii) if the assets available for distribution amongst the members shall be more than sufficient to repay the whole of the Company’ issued share capital at the commencement of the liquidation, the surplus shall be distributed amongst the members in portion to the par value of the shares held by them subject to a deduction from those shares in respect of which there are monies due, of all monies payable to the Company for unpaid calls or otherwise.

10.11 Compulsory acquisition

Schemes of Arrangement The Companies Law (2013 Revision) of the Cayman Islands allow for schemes of arrangement. A scheme of arrangement is a flexible form of corporate restructuring and involves a range of transactions aimed to reorganise Cayman Islands companies. The schemes may be effected by a court-supervised scheme if an amalgamation or reconstruction is required or schemes of arrangement can be put in place either between a company and its shareholders in various forms, including takeovers, spin-offs, amalgamations, mergers, de-mergers, re-domicilings, restating net asset values, de-mutualisations, and/or between a company and its creditors, also in various forms such as debt-for-debt, debt-for-equity and debt-for-assets swaps, and the re-organisations of

80

options and warrants. A scheme is a collective procedure. It operates both as a contract and a court order and has statutory effect. Provided the necessary majorities are obtained, the terms of a scheme become binding on all members of shareholders/creditors of the company, whether or not they (i) received notice of the scheme; (ii) voted at the meeting; (iii) voted for or against the scheme; and (iv) changed their minds afterwards. The range of possible objections that can be raised is very narrow. Dissenting shareholders have no statutory rights in any scheme, however, if such rights are thought desirable then the terms of the scheme itself may make such provision. The required majority is a super-majority of each class of members voting at the meeting (present in person or by proxy) being: 50% + one in number (i.e. a headcount vote); and 75% in value (i.e. the number of shares voted). Power to acquire shares In accordance with the Companies Law (2013 Revision), where a scheme or contract involving the transfer of shares or any class of shares in a company (in this section referred to as "the transferor company") to another company, whether a company within the meaning of the Companies Law (2013 Revision) or not (in this section referred to as "the transferee company") has, within four months after the making of the offer in that behalf by the transferee company, been approved by the holders of not less than 90% in value of the shares affected, the transferee company may, at any time within two months after the expiration of the said four months, give notice in the prescribed manner to any dissenting shareholder that it desires to acquire his shares, and where such notice is given the transferee company shall, unless on an application made by the dissenting shareholder within one month from the date on which the notice was given, the court thinks fit to order otherwise, be entitled and bound to acquire those shares on the terms on which under the scheme or contract the shares of the approving shareholders are to be transferred to the transferee company. Where a notice has been given by the transferee company and the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands has not, on an application made by the dissenting shareholder, ordered to the contrary, the transferee company shall, on the expiration of one month from the date on which the notice has been given or, if an application to the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands by the dissenting shareholder is then pending, after that application has been disposed of, transmit a copy of the notice to the transferor company and pay or transfer to the transferor company the amount or other consideration representing the price payable by the transferee company for the shares which that company is entitled to acquire, and the transferor company shall thereupon register the transferee company as the holder of those shares.

11. SECURITIES TRADING IN NORWAY

This Section 11 includes certain aspects of rules pertaining to securities trading in Norway in a Norwegian incorporated company pursuant to Norwegian legislation, but is however not a full or complete description of the matters described herein. The following summary does not purport to be a comprehensive description of all the legal considerations that may be relevant to a decision to purchase, own or dispose of Shares. Investors are advised to consult their own legal advisors concerning the overall legal consequences of their ownership of Shares.

11.1 Introduction

Oslo Børs was established in 1819 and is the principal market in which shares, bonds and other financial instruments are traded in Norway. Oslo Børs is operated by Oslo Børs ASA, which also operates the regulated marketplace Oslo Axess. Oslo Børs has entered into a strategic cooperation with the London Stock Exchange group with regards to, inter alia, trading systems for equities, fixed income and derivatives.

11.2 Trading and settlement

Trading of equities on Oslo Børs is carried out in the electronic trading system Millenium Exchange. This trading system was developed by the London Stock Exchange and is in use by all markets operated by the London Stock Exchange as well as by the Borsa Italiana and the Johannesburg Stock Exchange. Official trading on Oslo Børs takes place between 09:00 hours (CET) and 16:20 hours (CET) each trading day, with pre-trade period between 08:15 hours (CET) and 09:00 hours (CET), closing auction from 16:20 hours (CET) to 16:25 hours (CET) and a post-trade period from 16:25 hours (CET) to 17:30 hours (CET). Reporting of after exchange trades can be done until 17:30 hours (CET). The settlement period for trading on Oslo Børs is two trading days (T+2). This means that securities will be settled on the investor’s account in the VPS two days after the transaction, and that the seller will receive payment after two days. Oslo Clearing ASA, a wholly-owned subsidiary SIX x-clear Ltd, a company in the Six Group, has a license from the Norwegian FSA to act as a central clearing service, and has from 18 June 2010 offered clearing and counterparty services for equity trading on Oslo Børs. Investment services in Norway may only be provided by Norwegian investment firms holding a license under the Norwegian Securities Trading Act, branches of investment firms from an EEA member state or investment firms from outside the EEA that have been licensed to operate in Norway. Investment firms in an EEA member state may also provide cross-border investment services into Norway. It is possible for investment firms to undertake market-making activities in shares listed in Norway if they have a license to this effect under the Norwegian Securities Trading Act, or in the case of investment firms in an EEA member state, a license to carry out market-making activities in their home jurisdiction. Such market-making activities will be governed by the regulations of the Norwegian Securities Trading Act relating to brokers' trading for their own account. However, market-making activities do not as such require notification to the Norwegian FSA or Oslo Børs except for the general obligation of investment firms being members of Oslo Børs to report all trades in stock exchange listed securities.

82

11.3 Information, control and surveillance

Under Norwegian law, Oslo Børs is required to perform a number of surveillance and control functions. The Surveillance and Corporate Control unit of Oslo Børs monitors market activity on a continuous basis. Market surveillance systems are largely automated, promptly warning department personnel of abnormal market developments. The Norwegian FSA controls the issuance of securities in both the equity and bond markets in Norway and evaluates whether the issuance documentation contains the required information and whether it would otherwise be unlawful to carry out the issuance. Under Norwegian law, a company that is listed on a Norwegian regulated market, or has applied for listing on such market, must promptly release any inside information directly concerning the company (i.e. precise information about financial instruments, the issuer thereof or other matters which are likely to have a significant effect on the price of the relevant financial instruments or related financial instruments, and which are not publicly available or commonly known in the market). A company may, however, delay the release of such information in order not to prejudice its legitimate interests, provided that it is able to ensure the confidentiality of the information and that the delayed release would not be likely to mislead the public. Oslo Børs may levy fines on companies violating these requirements.

11.4 The VPS and transfer of Shares

The Company's shareholder register is operated through the VPS. The VPS is the Norwegian paperless centralised securities register. It is a computerised bookkeeping system in which the ownership of, and all transactions relating to, Norwegian listed shares must be recorded. All transactions relating to securities registered with the VPS are made through computerised book entries. No physical share certificates are, or may be, issued. The VPS confirms each entry by sending a transcript to the registered shareholder irrespective of any beneficial ownership. To give effect to such entries, the individual shareholder must establish a share account with a Norwegian account agent. Norwegian banks, authorised securities brokers in Norway and Norwegian branches of credit institutions established within the EEA are allowed to act as account agents. The entry of a transaction in the VPS is generally prima facie evidence in determining the legal rights of parties as against the issuing company or any third party claiming an interest in the given security. The VPS is liable for any loss suffered as a result of faulty registration or an amendment to, or deletion of, rights in respect of registered securities unless the error is caused by matters outside the VPS’ control which the VPS could not reasonably be expected to avoid or overcome the consequences of. Damages payable by the VPS may, however, be reduced in the event of contributory negligence by the aggrieved party. The VPS must provide information to the Norwegian FSA on an on-going basis, as well as any information that the Norwegian FSA requests. Further, Norwegian tax authorities may require certain information from the VPS regarding any individual’s holdings of securities, including information about dividends and interest payments.

11.5 Foreign investment in shares listed in Norway

Foreign investors may trade shares listed on Oslo Børs through any broker that is a member of Oslo Børs, whether Norwegian or foreign.

11.6 Disclosure obligations

If a person's, entity's or consolidated group's proportion of the total issued shares and/or rights to shares in an issuer with its shares listed on a regulated market in Norway (with Norway as its home state, which will be the case for the Company) reaches, exceeds or

83

falls below the respective thresholds of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 1/3, 50%, 2/3 or 90% of the share capital or the voting rights of that issuer, the person, entity or group in question has an obligation under the Norwegian Securities Trading Act to notify Oslo Børs and the issuer immediately. The same applies if the disclosure thresholds are passed due to other circumstances, such as a change in the Company's share capital.

11.7 Insider trading

According to Norwegian law, subscription for, purchase, sale or exchange of financial instruments that are listed, or subject to the application for listing, on a Norwegian regulated market, or incitement to such dispositions, must not be undertaken by anyone who has inside information, as defined in section 3-2 of the Norwegian Securities Trading Act. The same applies to the entry into, purchase, sale or exchange of options or futures/forward contracts or equivalent rights whose value is connected to such financial instruments or incitement to such dispositions.

11.8 Mandatory offer requirement

The Norwegian Securities Trading Act requires any person, entity or consolidated group that becomes the owner of shares representing more than one-third of the voting rights of a Norwegian issuer with its shares listed on a Norwegian regulated market to, within four weeks, make an unconditional general offer for the purchase of the remaining shares in that issuer. A mandatory offer obligation may also be triggered where a party acquires the right to become the owner of shares that, together with the party's own shareholding, represent more than one-third of the voting rights in the issuer and Oslo Børs decides that this is regarded as an effective acquisition of the shares in question. The mandatory offer obligation ceases to apply if the person, entity or consolidated group sells the portion of the shares that exceeds the relevant threshold within four weeks of the date on which the mandatory offer obligation was triggered. When a mandatory offer obligation is triggered, the person subject to the obligation is required to immediately notify Oslo Børs and the issuer in question accordingly. The notification is required to state whether an offer will be made to acquire the remaining shares in the issuer or whether a sale will take place. As a rule, a notification to the effect that an offer will be made cannot be retracted. The offer is subject to approval by Oslo Børs before the offer is submitted to the shareholders or made public. The offer price per share must be at least as high as the highest price paid or agreed to be paid by the offeror for the shares in the six-month period prior to the date the threshold was exceeded. If the acquirer acquires or agrees to acquire additional shares at a higher price prior to the expiration of the mandatory offer period, the acquirer is required to restate its offer at such higher price. A mandatory offer must be in cash or contain a cash alternative at least equivalent to any other consideration offered. In case of failure to make a mandatory offer or to sell the portion of the shares that exceeds the relevant mandatory offer threshold within four weeks, Oslo Børs may force the acquirer to sell the shares exceeding the threshold by public auction. Moreover, a shareholder who fails to make an offer may not, as long as the mandatory offer obligation remains in unfulfilled, exercise rights in the issuer, such as voting on shares at general meetings of the issuer's shareholders, without the consent of a majority of the remaining shareholders. The shareholder may, however, exercise its rights to dividends and pre-emption rights in the event of a share capital increase. If the shareholder neglects his duty to make a mandatory offer, Oslo Børs may impose a cumulative daily fine that accrues until the circumstance has been rectified. Any person, entity or consolidated group that owns shares representing more than one-third of the votes in a Norwegian issuer with its shares listed on a Norwegian regulated

84

market is required to make an offer to purchase the remaining shares of the issuer (repeated offer obligation) if the person, entity or consolidated group through acquisition becomes the owner of shares representing 40% or more of the votes in the issuer. The same applies correspondingly if the person, entity or consolidated group through acquisition becomes the owner of shares representing 50% or more of the votes in the issuer. The mandatory offer obligation ceases to apply if the person, entity or consolidated group sells the portion of the shares which exceeds the relevant threshold within four weeks of the date on which the mandatory offer obligation was triggered. Any person, entity or consolidated group that has passed any of the above mentioned thresholds in such a way as not to trigger the mandatory bid obligation, and has therefore not previously made an offer for the remaining shares in the company in accordance with the mandatory offer rules is, as a main rule, required to make a mandatory offer in the event of a subsequent acquisition of shares in the company.

11.9 Foreign exchange controls

There are currently no foreign exchange control restrictions in Norway that would potentially restrict the payment of dividends to a shareholder outside Norway, and there are currently no restrictions that would affect the right of shareholders of a Norwegian issuer who are not residents in Norway to dispose of their shares and receive the proceeds from a disposal outside Norway. There is no maximum transferable amount either to or from Norway, although transferring banks are required to submit reports on foreign currency exchange transactions into and out of Norway into a central data register maintained by the Norwegian customs and excise authorities. The Norwegian police, tax authorities, customs and excise authorities, the National Insurance Administration and the Norwegian FSA have electronic access to the data in this register.

12. TAXATION

The following is a summary of certain Norwegian tax considerations relevant to the acquisition, ownership and disposition of shares by holders that are residents of Norway for purposes of Norwegian taxation ("Resident Shareholders") and holders that are not residents of Norway for such purposes ("Non-resident Shareholders"). The summary is based on applicable Norwegian laws, rules and regulations as they exist as at the date of this Prospectus. Such laws, rules and regulations may be subject to changes after this date, possibly on a retroactive basis for the same tax year. The summary is of a general nature and does not purport to be a comprehensive description of all the tax considerations that may be relevant to the Shareholders and does not address foreign tax laws. Please note that special rules apply for shareholders that cease to be tax resident in Norway or that for some reason are no longer considered taxable to Norway in relation to their shareholding. Each Shareholder should consult with and rely upon their own tax advisor to determine the particular tax consequences for him or her and the applicability and effect of any Norwegian or foreign tax laws and possible changes in such laws. For the purpose of the summary below, a reference to a Norwegian or foreign shareholder or company refers to tax residency rather than nationality.

12.1 Taxation of dividends

12.1.1 Resident corporate Shareholders

Norwegian corporate shareholders (i.e. limited liability companies, mutual funds, savings banks, mutual insurance companies or similar entities resident in Norway for tax purposes) are generally exempt from tax on dividends received on shares in Norwegian limited liability companies, pursuant to the participation exemption (Norwegian: Fritaksmetoden). However, 3% of dividend income is generally deemed taxable as general income at a flat rate of 27%, implying that dividends distributed from the Company to resident corporate Shareholders are effectively taxed at a rate of 0.81%. 12.1.2 Resident personal Shareholders

Personal shareholders tax resident in Norway are in general tax liable to Norway for their worldwide income. Dividends distributed to personal Shareholders who are individuals resident in Norway for tax purposes, are taxed as ordinary income at a flat rate of 27% to the extent the dividends exceed a statutory tax-free allowance (Norwegian: Skjermingsfradrag). The allowance is calculated on a share-by-share basis, and the allowance for each share is equal the cost price of the share multiplied by a determined risk-free interest rate based on the effective rate after tax of interest on treasury bills (Norwegian: "Statskasseveksler") with three months maturity. The allowance is allocated to the Shareholder owning the share on 31 December in the relevant income year. Norwegian personal shareholders who transfer shares during an income year will thus not be entitled to deduct any calculated allowance related to the year of transfer. The Directorate of Taxes announces the risk free-interest rate in January the year after the income. The risk-free interest rate for 2014, was 0.9%. Any part of the calculated allowance one year exceeding dividend distributed on the same share ("excess allowance") can be carried forward and set off against future dividends received on, or capital gains upon realization of the same share. Furthermore, excess allowance can be added to the cost price of the share and included in basis for calculating

86

the allowance on the same share the following year. 12.1.3 Non-resident Shareholders

Dividends distributed to Shareholders not resident in Norway for tax purposes are in general subject to withholding tax at a rate of 25%, unless otherwise provided for in an applicable tax treaty or the recipient is covered by the specific regulations for corporate shareholders tax-resident within the EEA (ref. the section below for more information on the EEA exemption). The company distributing the dividend is responsible for the withholding. Norway has entered into tax treaties with approximate 80 countries. In most tax treaties the withholding tax rate is reduced to 15%. In accordance with the present administrative system in Norway, the Norwegian distributing company will normally withhold tax at the regular rate or reduced rate according to an applicable tax treaty, based on the information registered with the VPS with regard to the tax residence of the Non-resident Shareholder. Dividends paid to Non-resident Shareholders in respect of nominee- registered shares will be subject to withholding tax at the general rate of 25% unless the nominee, by agreeing to provide certain information regarding beneficial owners, has obtained approval for a reduced or zero rate from the Central Office for Foreign Tax Affairs ("COFTA") (Norwegian: Sentralskattekontoret for utenlandssaker). Non-resident Shareholders who are exempt from withholding tax and Shareholders who have been subject to a higher withholding tax than applicable in the relevant tax treaty, may apply to the Norwegian tax authorities for a refund of the excess withholding tax. The application is to be filed with COFTA. If a Foreign Shareholder is engaged in business activities in Norway, and the shares are effectively connected with such business activities, dividends distributed to such shareholder will generally be subject to the same taxation as that of Norwegian Shareholders, cf. the description of tax issues related to Resident Shareholders above. Non-resident Shareholders should consult their own advisers regarding the availability of treaty benefits in respect of dividend payments, including the ability to effectively claim refunds of withholding tax. 12.1.4 Non-resident Shareholders tax-resident within the EEA

Non-resident Shareholders who are individuals tax-resident within the EEA ("Foreign EEA Personal Shareholders") are upon request entitled to a deductible allowance. The shareholder shall pay the lesser amount of (i) withholding tax according to the rate in an applicable tax treaty or (ii) withholding tax at 25% of taxable dividends after allowance. Foreign EEA Personal Shareholders may carry forward any unused allowance, if the allowance exceeds the dividends. Foreign Shareholders that are corporations tax-resident within the EEA for tax purposes ("Foreign EEA Corporate Shareholders") are exempt from Norwegian tax on dividends distributed from Norwegian limited liability companies, provided that the Foreign EEA Corporate Shareholder in fact is genuinely established within the EEA and performs real economic activity within the EEA.

12.2 Taxation upon realization of shares

12.2.1 Resident corporate Shareholders

Norwegian corporate Shareholders are generally exempt from tax on capital gains upon the realization of shares in Norwegian limited liability companies. Losses upon the realization and costs incurred in connection with the purchase and realization of such shares are not deductible for tax purposes.

87

12.2.2 Resident personal Shareholders

Norwegian individual shareholders are taxable in Norway for capital gains upon the realization of shares, and have a corresponding right to deduct losses that arise upon such realization. The tax liability applies irrespective of time of ownership and the number of shares realised. Gains are taxable as general income in the year of realization, and losses can be deducted from general income in the year of realization. The tax rate for general income is currently 27%. The taxable gain or loss is calculated per share as the difference between the consideration received and the cost price of the share, including any costs incurred in relation to the acquisition or realization of the share. Any unused allowance on a share (ref. above) may be set off against capital gains related to the realization of the same share, but may not lead to or increase a deductible loss i.e. any unused allowance exceeding the capital gain upon the realization of the share will be lost. Furthermore, unused allowance may not be set of against gains from realization of other shares. If a Shareholder disposes of shares acquired at different times, the shares that were first acquired will be deemed as first sold (the FIFO-principle) when calculating a taxable gain or loss. 12.2.3 Non-resident Shareholders

As a general rule, capital gains generated by Non-resident Shareholders are not taxable in Norway unless (i) the shares are effectively connected with business activities carried out or

managed in Norway (in which case capital gains will generally be subject to the same taxation as that of Norwegian Shareholders, cf the description of tax issues related to Norwegian Shareholders above), or

(ii) the shares are held by an individual who has been a resident of Norway for tax purposes with unsettled/postponed exit tax calculated on the shares at the time of cessation as Norwegian tax resident.

12.3 Net wealth tax

Norwegian limited liability companies and certain similar entities are exempt from Norwegian net wealth tax. For other resident Shareholders (i.e. Shareholders who are individual), the shares will form part of the basis for the calculation of net wealth tax. The current marginal net wealth tax rate is 0.85% of taxable values. Listed shares are valued at 100% of their quoted value on 1 January in the assessment year (the year following the income year).

12.4 Inheritance tax

As of 1 January 2014 the Norwegian Inheritance Tax was abolished. However, the heir acquires the donor's tax input value of the shares based on principles of continuity. Thus, the heir will be taxable for any increase in value in the donor's ownership, at the time of the heir's realization of the shares. However, in the case of gifts distributed to other persons than heirs according to law or testament, the recipient will be able to revalue the received shares to market value.

12.5 Stamp duty

There is currently no Norwegian stamp duty or transfer tax on the transfer or issuance of shares.

88

13. THE RIGHTS OFFERING

13.1 Overview

The Rights Offering consists of an offer by the Company to issue 454,430,000 New Shares at a Subscription Price of NOK 1.80 per New Share, thereby raising gross proceeds of approximately USD 100 million. The Company intends to use the net proceeds to serve interest and instalments on its debt in accordance with its repayment schedules and thereby continue to reduce the Company's debt leverage. In addition the net proceeds will be used to make payments under the Company's newbuilding program. Existing Shareholders will be granted tradable Subscription Rights providing a preferential right to subscribe for and be allocated New Shares in the Rights Offering. Oversubscription and subscription without Subscription Rights will be permitted; however, there can be no assurance that New Shares will be allocated for such subscriptions. The largest shareholder of the Company, Siem Europe S.a r.l., has entered into an underwriting agreement with the Company, whereby it will subscribe for any New Shares not otherwise subscribed for in the Rights Offering. See Section 13.20, "The Rights Offering—The Underwriting" for more details. No action will be taken to permit a public offering of the New Shares in any jurisdiction outside of Norway.

13.2 Resolution to Issue the New Shares

On 14 August 2015, an extraordinary general meeting of the Company passed the following resolution to increase the authorized share capital of the Company in connection with the Rights Offering:

To approve the increase of the authorised share capital of the Company from US$5,500,000 divided into 550,000,000 Common Shares of par value US$0.01 each to US$10,000,000 divided into 1,000,000,000 Common Shares of par value US$0.01 each, by the creation of an additional 450,000,000 Common Shares of par value US$0.01 each to rank pari passu in all respects with the existing shares.

On 14 August 2015, the Board of Directors passed the following resolution to issue New Shares in connection with the Rights Offering:

The Board of Directors had earlier approved the Rights Issue in principle at its 10 June 2015 meeting held in Oslo and the purpose of this meeting was to approve the terms of the Rights Issue.

Pursuant to the Rights Issue, the Company will offer 454,430,000 new Common Shares in the Company (the "New Shares") with a nominal value of USD 0.01 each, at a subscription price of NOK 1.80 per New Share (the "Subscription Price"). It was also noted that holders of the Company’s shares registered in the Norwegian Central Securities Depository (the "VPS") as of 18 August 2015 (the "Existing Shareholders") are being granted transferable subscription rights (the "Subscription Rights") that, subject to applicable law, provide preferential rights to subscribe for and be allocated New Shares at the Subscription Price.

Each Existing Shareholder will be granted 1.1724 Subscription Rights for each share registered as held by such Existing Shareholder as of 18 August 2015 (the "Record Date"). Further, each Subscription Right will give the right to subscribe

89

for and be allocated one New Share.

The Company has proposed that the subscription period shall commence on 19 August 2015 and expire at 16:30 hours, Central European Time ("CET"), on 2 September 2015 (the "Subscription Period"). If the Subscription Period is postponed, then the Subscription Period shall commence on the second trading day following approval of the Prospectus and end at 16.30 CET on the 14th day thereafter if the Prospectus is not approved in time for the Subscription Period to commence on 19 August 2015. Any New Shares which shall be subscribed for by the underwriters shall be subscribed for within 2 trading days after expiry of the Subscription Period.

The Subscription Rights will be listed and tradable on the Oslo Børs (the "Oslo Stock Exchange") under the ticker code SIOFF T from 19 August 2015 until the end of trading on the Oslo Stock Exchange on 31 August 2015.

The Prospectus is required to be approved by the Norwegian Financial Supervisory Authority in connection with the Rights Issue. Unless the Directors decide otherwise, the Prospectus shall not be registered with or approved by any foreign authorities. The New Shares cannot be subscribed by investors in jurisdictions in which it is not permitted to offer New Shares to the investors in question without the registration or approval of a Prospectus, unless such registration or approval has taken place pursuant to a resolution by the Directors. With respect to Subscription Rights issued to any shareholder that in the Company’s view is not entitled to subscribe for New Shares due to limitations imposed by laws or regulations of the jurisdiction where such shareholder is a resident or citizen, the Company (or someone appointed or instructed by it) may sell such shareholder's Subscription Rights against transfer of the net proceeds from such sale to the shareholder.

The allocation of New Shares shall be made by the Directors and that the following allocation criteria shall apply:

(i) The allocation will be made to subscribers on the basis of granted and acquired Subscription Rights which have been validly exercised during the Subscription Period. Each Subscription Right will give the right to subscribe for and be allocated 1 New Share;

(ii) If not all Subscription Rights are validly exercised in the Subscription Period, subscribers having exercised their Subscription Rights and who have over-subscribed will have the right to be allocated the remaining New Shares pro rata based on the number of Subscription Rights exercised by the subscriber. In the event that pro rata allocation is not possible, the Company will determine the allocation by lot drawing;

(iii) any remaining New Shares not allocated pursuant to the criteria in items (i) and (ii) above, will be allocated to subscribers not holding Subscription Rights. Allocation will be made pro rata based on the respective subscription amounts, provided, however, that such allocation may be rounded down; and

(iv) if the subscription amount of approximately USD 100,000,000 has not been subscribed and allocated pursuant to the criteria in items (i), (ii) and (iii) above, the outstanding amount will be subscribed by and allocated to the underwriters, based on and in accordance with their respective underwriting obligations. They will receive a

90

guarantee commission of 1% on the guaranteed amount.

The due date for payment of the New Shares is 14 September 2015 or the third trading day on Oslo Børs after expiry of the Subscription Period if the Subscription Period is postponed as noted above.

The New Shares will give full shareholder rights in the Company, including the right to dividends, from the time the share capital increase is registered with the Register of Business Enterprises.

The Company's estimated costs in connection with the capital increase are approx. NOK9 million, of which approx. NOK8 million will be consideration for the underwriting guarantee established through separate agreements with the respective underwriter.

13.3 Conditions for Completion of the Rights Offering

The completion of the Rights Offering is subject to the condition that, unless the Rights Offering is fully subscribed, the Underwriting Agreement remaining in full force and effect. Please refer to Section 13.20 "—The Underwriting") below for a description of the underwriting and the Underwriting Agreement and the Shareholder Commitments, including the conditions and termination rights to which the underwriting is subject. If it becomes clear that the above conditions will not be fulfilled, the Rights Offering will be withdrawn. If the Rights Offering is withdrawn, all Subscription Rights will lapse without value, any subscriptions for, and allocations of, New Shares that have been made will be disregarded and any payments for New Shares made will be returned to the subscribers without interest or any other compensation. The lapsing of Subscription Rights shall be without prejudice to the validity of any trades in Subscription Rights, and investors will not receive any refund or compensation in respect of Subscription Rights purchased in the market.

13.5 Subscription Price

The Subscription Price in the Rights Offering is NOK 1.80 per New Share. The Subscription Price represents a discount of approximately 14.29% to the closing price of NOK 2.10 per Share as quoted on 10 June 2015.

13.6 Subscription Period

The Subscription Period will commence on 19 August 2015 and end on 2 September 2015 at 16:30 hours (CET). The Subscription Period may not be extended.

13.7 Record Date

Shareholders who are registered in the Company’s shareholder register in the VPS as of 18 August 2015 (the Record Date) will receive Subscription Rights. Provided that the delivery of traded Shares is made with ordinary T+2 settlement in the VPS, Shares that are acquired until and including 14 August 2015 will give the right to receive Subscription Rights, whereas Shares that are acquired from and including 17 August 2015 will not give the right to receive Subscription Rights.

13.8 Subscription Rights

Existing Shareholders will be granted Subscription Rights giving a preferential right to subscribe for and be allocated New Shares in the Rights Offering. Each Existing Shareholder will be granted 1.1724 tradable Subscription Rights for each Existing Shares registered as held by such Existing Shareholder on the Record Date. The number of Subscription Rights granted to each Existing Shareholder will be rounded down to the nearest whole Subscription Right. Each Subscription Right will, subject to applicable securities laws, give the right to subscribe for and be allocated one New Share in the Rights Offering. The Subscription Rights will be credited to and registered on each Existing Shareholder’s VPS account on or about 19 August 2015 under the International Securities Identification Number (ISIN) KYG812291097. The Subscription Rights will be distributed free of charge to Existing Shareholders. The Subscription Rights may be used to subscribe for New Shares in the Rights Offering before the expiry of the Subscription Period on 2 September 2015 at 16:30 hours (CET) or be sold before the end of trading on the Oslo Stock Exchange on 31 August 2015. Acquired Subscription Rights will give the same right to subscribe for and be allocated New Shares as Subscription Rights held by Existing Shareholders on the basis of their shareholdings on the Record Date. The Subscription Rights, including acquired Subscription Rights, must be used to subscribe for New Shares before the end of the Subscription Period (i.e., 2 September 2015 at 16:30 hours (CET)) or be sold before the end of trading on the Oslo Stock Exchange on 31 August 2015. Subscription Rights which are not sold before the end of trading on the Oslo Stock Exchange on 31 August 2015 or exercised before 2 September 2015 at 16:30 hours (CET) will have no value and will lapse without compensation to the holder. Holders of Subscription Rights (whether granted or acquired) should note that subscriptions for New Shares must be made in accordance with the procedures set out in this Prospectus. Subscription Rights of Existing Shareholders resident in jurisdictions where the Prospectus may not be distributed and/or with legislation that, according to the Company’s assessment, prohibits or otherwise restricts subscription for New Shares (the "Ineligible Shareholders") will initially be credited to such Ineligible Shareholders’ VPS accounts. Such credit specifically does not constitute an offer to Ineligible Shareholders.

92

The Company will instruct the Manager to, as far as possible, withdraw the Subscription Rights from such Ineligible Shareholders’ VPS accounts, and sell them from and including 19 August 2015 until the end of trading on the Oslo Stock Exchange on 31 August 2015 for the account and risk of such Ineligible Shareholders, unless the relevant Subscription Rights are held through a financial intermediary. Please refer to Section 13.12, "—The Underwriting" below for a description of the procedures applicable to Subscription Rights held by Ineligible Shareholders through financial intermediaries. The Manager will use commercially reasonable efforts to procure that the Subscription Rights withdrawn from the VPS accounts of Ineligible Shareholders (and that are not held through financial intermediaries) are sold on behalf of, and for the benefit of, such Ineligible Shareholders during said period, provided that (i) the Manager is able to sell the Subscription Rights at a price at least equal to the anticipated costs related to the sale of such Subscription Rights, and (ii) the relevant Ineligible Shareholder has not by 16:30 hours (CET) on 2 September 2015 documented to the Company through the Manager a right to receive the Subscription Rights withdrawn from its VPS account, in which case the Manager shall re-credit the withdrawn Subscription Rights to the VPS account of the relevant Ineligible Shareholder. The proceeds from the sale of the Subscription Rights (if any), after deduction of customary sales expenses, will be credited to the Ineligible Shareholder’s bank account registered in the VPS for payment of dividends, provided that the net proceeds attributable to such Ineligible Shareholder amount to or exceed NOK 10. If an Ineligible Shareholder does not have a bank account registered in the VPS, the Ineligible Shareholder must contact the Manager to claim the proceeds. If the net proceeds attributable to an Ineligible Shareholder are less than NOK 10, such amount will be retained for the benefit of the Company. There can be no assurance that the Manager will be able to withdraw and/or sell the Subscription Rights at a profit or at all. Other than as explicitly stated above, neither the Company nor the Manager will conduct any sale of Subscription Rights not utilised before the end of the Subscription Period.

13.9 Trading in Subscription Rights

The Subscription Rights will be fully tradable and listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange with ticker code "SIOFF T" and with ISIN KYG812291097 from 19 August 2015 until the end of trading on the Oslo Stock Exchange on 31 August 2015. Subscription Rights acquired during the aforementioned trading period carry the same rights to subscribe for New Shares during the Subscription Period, as Subscription Rights received and held by Eligible Shareholders. The Subscription Rights will hence only be tradable during part of the Subscription Period. Persons intending to trade in Subscription Rights should be aware that the exercise of Subscription Rights by holders who are located in jurisdictions outside Norway may be restricted or prohibited by applicable securities laws. Please refer to Section 14, "Selling and transfer restrictions" for a description of such restrictions and prohibitions.

93

13.10 Subscription Procedures

Subscriptions for New Shares must be made by submitting a correctly completed Subscription Form to the Manager or the Receiving Agent during the Subscription Period or, for Norwegian citizens, made online as further described below. Existing Shareholders will receive Subscription Forms that include information about the number of Subscription Rights allocated to the Existing Shareholder and certain other matters relating to the shareholding. Subscriptions for New Shares by subscribers who are not Existing Shareholders must be made on a Subscription Form in the form included in Annex 2 "Form of Subscription Form". Existing Shareholders may also choose to use such a Subscription Form. Correctly completed Subscription Forms must be received by the Manager or the Receiving Agent no later than 16:30 hours (CET) on 2 September 2015 at the following addresses or fax numbers: Swedbank DNB Markets Registrars Department Filipstad Brygge 1 Dronning Eufemias gate 30 P.O. Box 1441 Vika P.O. Box 1600 Sentrum N-0115 Oslo Norway

N-0021 Oslo Norway

Tel.: +47 23 23 80 00 Tel.: +47 23 26 81 01 Fax: +47 23 23 80 11 www.swedbank.no

Email: [email protected] www.dnb.no/emisjoner

Subscribers who are residents of Norway with a Norwegian personal identification number (Nw. personnummer) are encouraged to subscribe for New Shares through the VPS online subscription system (or by following the links on www.swedbank.no and www.dnb.no/emisjoner which will redirect the subscriber to the VPS online subscription system). Neither the Company, the Receiving Agent nor the Manager may be held responsible for postal delays, unavailable fax lines, internet lines or servers or other logistical or technical problems that may result in subscriptions not being received in time or at all by the Manager or the Receiving Agent. Subscription Forms received after the end of the Subscription Period and/or incomplete or incorrect Subscription Forms and any subscription that may be unlawful may be disregarded at the sole discretion of the Company, Receiving Agent and/or the Manager without notice to the subscriber. Subscriptions are binding and irrevocable, and cannot be withdrawn, cancelled or modified by the subscriber after having been received by the Manager or the Receiving Agent. The subscriber is responsible for the correctness of the information filled into the Subscription Form. By signing and submitting a Subscription Form, the subscribers confirm and warrant that they have read this Prospectus and are eligible to subscribe for New Shares under the terms set forth herein. There is no minimum subscription amount for which subscriptions in the Rights Offering must be made. Oversubscription (i.e., subscription for more New Shares than the number of Subscription Rights held by the subscriber entitles the subscriber to be allocated) and subscription without Subscription Rights will be permitted. However, in each case there can be no assurance that New Shares will be allocated for such subscriptions. Multiple subscriptions (i.e., subscriptions on more than one Subscription Form) are allowed. Please note, however, that two separate Subscription Forms submitted by the same subscriber with the same number of New Shares subscribed for on both

94

Subscription Forms will only be counted once unless otherwise explicitly stated in one of the Subscription Forms. In the case of multiple subscriptions through the VPS online subscription system or subscriptions made both on a Subscription Form and through the VPS online subscription system, all subscriptions will be counted.

13.11 Mandatory Anti-Money Laundering Procedures

The Rights Offering is subject to the Norwegian Money Laundering Act No. 11 of 6 March 2009 and the Norwegian Money Laundering Regulations No. 302 of 13 March 2009 (collectively the "Anti-Money Laundering Legislation"). Subscribers who are not registered as existing customers of the Manager or the Receiving Agent must verify their identity to the Manager or the Receiving Agent in accordance with requirements of the Anti-Money Laundering Legislation, unless an exemption is available. Subscribers who have designated an existing Norwegian bank account and an existing VPS account on the Subscription Form are exempted, unless verification of identity is requested by the Manager or the Receiving Agent. Subscribers who have not completed the required verification of identity prior to the expiry of the Subscription Period will not be allocated New Shares. Furthermore, participation in the Rights Offering is conditional upon the subscriber holding a VPS account. The VPS account number must be stated in the Subscription Form. VPS accounts can be established with authorised VPS registrars, who can be Norwegian banks, authorised securities brokers in Norway and Norwegian branches of credit institutions established within the EEA. However, non-Norwegian investors may use nominee VPS accounts registered in the name of a nominee. The nominee must be authorised by the NFSA. Establishment of a VPS account requires verification of identification to the VPS registrar in accordance with the Anti-Money Laundering Legislation.

13.12 Financial Intermediaries

All persons or entities holding Shares or Subscription Rights through financial intermediaries (i.e., brokers, custodians and nominees) should read this Section 13.12. All questions concerning the timeliness, validity and form of instructions to a financial intermediary in relation to the exercise, sale or purchase of Subscription Rights should be determined by the financial intermediary in accordance with its usual customer relations procedure or as it otherwise notifies each beneficial shareholder. The Company is not liable for any action or failure to act by a financial intermediary through which Shares are held. 13.12.1 Subscription Rights

If an Existing Shareholder holds Shares registered through a financial intermediary on the Record Date, the financial intermediary will customarily give the Existing Shareholder details of the aggregate number of Subscription Rights to which it will be entitled. The relevant financial intermediary will customarily supply each Existing Shareholder with this information in accordance with its usual customer relations procedures. Existing Shareholders holding Shares through a financial intermediary should contact the financial intermediary if they have received no information with respect to the Rights Offering. Subject to applicable law, Existing Shareholders holding Shares through a financial intermediary may instruct the financial intermediary to sell some or all of their Subscription Rights, or to purchase additional Subscription Rights on their behalf. Please refer to Section 14, "Selling and transfer restrictions" for a description of certain restrictions and prohibitions applicable to the sale and purchase of Subscription Rights in certain jurisdictions outside Norway.

95

Existing Shareholders who hold their Shares through a financial intermediary and who are Ineligible Shareholders will not be entitled to exercise their Subscription Rights but may, subject to applicable law, instruct their financial intermediaries to sell their Subscription Rights transferred to the financial intermediary. As described in Section 13.8, "—Subscription Rights", neither the Company nor the Manager or the Receiving Agent will sell any Subscription Rights transferred to financial intermediaries. 13.12.2 Subscription Period and period for trading in Subscription Rights

The time by which notification of exercise instructions for subscription of New Shares must validly be given to a financial intermediary may be earlier than the expiry of the Subscription Period. The same applies for instructions pertaining to trading in Subscription Rights and the last day of trading in such rights (which accordingly will be a deadline earlier than the end of trading on the Oslo Stock Exchange on 31 August 2015. Such deadlines will depend on the financial intermediary. Existing Shareholders who hold their Shares through a financial intermediary should contact their financial intermediary if they are in any doubt with respect to deadlines. 13.12.3 Subscription

Any Existing Shareholder who is not an Ineligible Shareholder and who holds its Subscription Rights through a financial intermediary and wishes to exercise its Subscription Rights, should instruct its financial intermediary in accordance with the instructions received from such financial intermediary. The financial intermediary will be responsible for collecting exercise instructions from the Existing Shareholders and for informing the Manager or the Receiving Agent of their exercise instructions. A person or entity who has acquired Subscription Rights that are held through a financial intermediary should contact the relevant financial intermediary for instructions on how to exercise the Subscription Rights. Please refer to Section 14, "Selling and transfer restrictions" for a description of certain restrictions and prohibitions applicable to the exercise of Subscription Rights in certain jurisdictions outside Norway. 13.12.4 Method of payment

Any Existing Shareholder who holds its Subscription Rights through a financial intermediary should pay the Subscription Price for the New Shares that are allocated to it in accordance with the instructions received from the financial intermediary. The financial intermediary must pay the Subscription Price in accordance with the instructions in the Prospectus. Payment by the financial intermediary for the New Shares must be made to the Manager or the Receiving Agent no later than the Payment Date. Accordingly, financial intermediaries may require payment to be provided to them prior to the Payment Date.

13.13 Allocation of New Shares

Allocation of the New Shares will take place on or about 4 September 2015 in accordance with the following criteria:

i. Allocation will be made to subscribers on the basis of granted and acquired Subscription Rights, which have been validly exercised during the Subscription Period. Each Subscription Right will give the right to subscribe for and be allocated one New Share in the Rights Offering.

ii. If not all Subscription Rights are exercised, subscribers having exercised their Subscription Rights and who have oversubscribed will be allocated additional New Shares on a pro rata basis based on the number of Subscription Rights exercised

96

by each such subscriber. To the extent that pro rata allocation is not possible, the Company will determine the allocation by the drawing of lots.

iii. New Shares not allocated pursuant to (i) and (ii) above will be allocated to subscribers not holding Subscription Rights. Allocation will be sought made on a pro rata basis based on the relevant subscription amounts.

iv. New Shares not allocated pursuant to (i), (ii) and (iii) above will be subscribed by, and allocated to, the Underwriter.

No fractional New Shares will be allocated. The Company reserves the right to round off, reject or reduce any subscription for New Shares not covered by Subscription Rights. Allocation of fewer New Shares than subscribed for by a subscriber will not impact on the subscriber’s obligation to pay for the number of New Shares allocated. The result of the Rights Offering is expected to be published on or about 3 September 2015 in the form of a stock exchange notification from the Company through the Oslo Stock Exchange information system and at the Company’s website (http://www.siemoffshore.com/). Notifications of allocated New Shares and the corresponding subscription amount to be paid by each subscriber are expected to be distributed in a letter from the VPS on or about 4 September 2015. Subscribers having access to investor services through their VPS account manager will be able to check the number of New Shares allocated to them from 12:00 hours (CET) on 4 September 2015. Subscribers who do not have access to investor services through their VPS account manager may contact the Manager or the Receiving Agent from 14:00 hours (CET) on 4 September 2015 to get information about the number of New Shares allocated to them.

13.14 Payment for the New Shares

The payment for New Shares allocated to a subscriber falls due on the Payment Date (14 September 2015). Payment must be made in accordance with the requirements set out in Sections 13.14.1 "—Subscribers who have a Norwegian bank account" or 13.14.2 "—Subscribers who do not have a Norwegian bank account" below. 13.14.1 Subscribers who have a Norwegian bank account

Subscribers who have a Norwegian bank account must, and will by signing the Subscription Form, provide the Manager or the Receiving Agent with a one-time irrevocable authorisation to debit a specified bank account with a Norwegian bank for the amount payable for the New Shares which are allocated to the subscriber. The specified bank account is expected to be debited on or after the Payment Date. The Manager or the Receiving Agent is only authorised to debit such account once, but reserves the right to make up to three debit attempts, and the authorisation will be valid for up to seven working days after the Payment Date. The subscriber furthermore authorises the Manager or the Receiving Agent to obtain confirmation from the subscriber’s bank that the subscriber has the right to dispose over the specified account and that there are sufficient funds in the account to cover the payment. If there are insufficient funds in a subscriber’s bank account or if it for other reasons is impossible to debit such bank account when a debit attempt is made pursuant to the authorisation from the subscriber, the subscriber’s obligation to pay for the New Shares will be deemed overdue. Payment by direct debiting is a service that banks in Norway provide in cooperation. In the relationship between the subscriber and the subscriber’s bank, the standard terms

97

and conditions for "Payment by Direct Debiting – Securities Trading", which are set out on page 2 of the Subscription Form, will apply, provided, however, that subscribers who subscribe for an amount exceeding NOK 5 million by signing the Subscription Form provide the Manager or the Receiving Agent with a one-time irrevocable authorisation to directly debit the specified bank account for the entire subscription amount. 13.14.2 Subscribers who do not have a Norwegian bank account

Subscribers who do not have a Norwegian bank account must ensure that payment with cleared funds for the New Shares allocated to them is made on or before the Payment Date. Prior to any such payment being made, the subscriber must contact the Manager or the Receiving Agent for further details and instructions. 13.14.3 Overdue payments

Overdue payments will be charged with interest at the applicable rate from time to time under the Norwegian Act on Interest on Overdue Payment of 17 December 1976 No. 100, currently 9.00% per annum. If a subscriber fails to comply with the terms of payment, the New Shares will not be delivered to the subscriber.

Except as otherwise disclosed in this Prospectus, if an investor receives a copy of this Prospectus in any jurisdiction other than Norway, the investor may not treat this Prospectus as constituting an invitation or offer to it, nor should the investor in any event deal in the Shares, unless, in the relevant jurisdiction, such an invitation or offer could lawfully be made to that investor, or the Shares could lawfully be dealt in without contravention of any unfulfilled registration or other legal requirements. Accordingly, if an investor receives a copy of this Prospectus, the investor should not distribute or send the same, or transfer Shares, to any person or in or into any jurisdiction where to do so would or might contravene local securities laws or regulations.

Appendix C: Subscription Form  

SIEM OFFSHORE INC. RIGHTS ISSUE

SUBSCRIPTION FORM Securities no. ISIN KYG813131011

General information: The terms and conditions of the Rights Issue by Siem Offshore Inc. (the “Company”) are set out in the prospectus dated 17 August 2015 (the “Prospectus”). Terms defined in the Prospectus shall have the same meaning in this Subscription Form. All announcements referred to in this Subscription Form will be made through Oslo Børs’ information system under the Company’s ticker “SIOFF”.

Subscription procedures: The subscription period is from 19 August 2015 to 16:30 hours (CET) on 2 September 2015 (the “Subscription Period”). Correctly completed Subscription Forms must be received by the Manager or the Receiving Agent before the end of the Subscription Period at one of the following addresses: Swedbank, P.O Box 1441 Vika, N-0115 Oslo, Norway, telefax +47 23 23 80 11 or DNB Markets, Registrar Department, P.O. Box 1600 Sentrum, N-0021 Oslo, Norway, [email protected] (the “Subscription Offices”). The subscriber is responsible for the correctness of the information filled in on the Subscription Form. Subscription Forms that are incomplete or incorrectly completed, or that are received after the end of the Subscription Period, and any subscription that may be unlawful, may be disregarded, at the discretion of the Manager or the Receiving Agent on behalf of the Company. Subscribers who are residents of Norway with a Norwegian personal identification number may also subscribe for Offer Shares through the VPS online subscription system by following the link on any of the following websites: www.swedbank.no or www.dnb.no/emisjoner. Subscriptions made through the VPS online subscription system must be duly registered before the expiry of the Subscription Period. Neither the Company, the Manager nor the Receiving Agent may be held responsible for postal delays, unavailable fax lines, internet lines or servers or other logistical or technical problems that may result in subscriptions not being received in time or at all by the Subscription Offices. Subscriptions are irrevocable and binding upon receipt and cannot be withdrawn, cancelled or modified by the subscriber after having been received by an Subscription Office, or in the case of subscriptions through the VPS online subscription system, upon registration of the subscription.

Subscription Price: The Subscription Price in the Rights Issue is NOK 1.80 per Offer Share. Subscription Rights: Registered holders of the Company’s shares (the “Existing Shareholders”) as appearing in the VPS as of 18 August 2015 (the “Record Date”) will be granted Subscription Rights giving a preferential right to subscribe for, and be allocated, the Offer Shares. Each Existing Shareholder will be granted 1.1724 Subscription Rights per existing share registered with the respective Existing Shareholder on the Record Date. The number of Subscription Rights issued to each Existing Shareholder will be rounded down to the nearest whole Subscription Right. Each Subscription Right will, subject to applicable securities laws, give the right to subscribe for and be allocated one Offer Share in the Rights Issue. Over-subscription and subscription without Subscription Rights is permitted. Subscription Rights not used to subscribe for Offer Shares before 31 August 2015 will lapse without compensation to the holder, and, consequently, will be of no value from that point in time. Allocation of Offer Shares: The Offer Shares will be allocated to the subscribers based on the allocation criteria set out in the Prospectus. The Company reserves the right to reject or reduce any subscription for Offer Shares not covered by Subscription Rights. The Company will not allocate fractional Offer Shares. Allocation of fewer Offer Shares than subscribed for does not impact on the subscriber’s obligation to pay for the Offer Shares allocated. Notification of allocated Offer Shares and the corresponding subscription amount to be paid by each subscriber is expected to be distributed in a letter from the VPS on or about 4 September 2015. Subscribers who have access to investor services through an institution that operates the subscriber’s VPS account should be able to see how many Offer Shares they have been allocated from 12:00 hours (CET) on or about 4 September 2015.

Payment: In completing this Subscription Form, or registering a subscription through the VPS online subscription system, subscribers authorise each of Swedbank and DNB Markets to debit the subscriber’s Norwegian bank account for the total subscription amount payable for the Offer Shares allocated to the subscriber. Accounts will be debited on or about 14 September 2015 (the “Payment Date”), and there must be sufficient funds in the stated bank account from and including the date falling 2 banking day prior to the Payment Date. Subscribers who do not have a Norwegian bank account must ensure that payment for the allocated Offer Shares is made on or before the Payment Date. Details and instructions can be obtained by contacting Swedbank, telephone: +47 23 23 80 00 or DNB Markets, telephone: + 47 22 94 88 80. Swedbank and DNB Markets together are only authorized to debit each account once, but reserves the right (but has no obligation) to make up to three debit attempts through 21 September 2015 if there are insufficient funds on the account on the Payment Date. Should any subscriber have insufficient funds in his or her account, should payment be delayed for any reason, if it is not possible to debit the account or if payments for any other reasons are not made when due, overdue interest will accrue and other terms will apply as set out under the heading “Overdue and missing payments” below.

ADDITIONAL GUIDELINES FOR THE SUBSCRIBER

Regulatory issues: In accordance with the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (“MiFID”) of the European Union, Norwegian law imposes requirements in relation to business investments. In this respect, the Manager and the Receiving Agent must categorize all new clients in one of three categories: eligible counterparties, professional clients and non-professional clients. All subscribers in the Rights Issue who are not existing clients of either the Manager or the Receiving Agent will be categorized as non-professional clients. Subscribers can, by written request to either the Manager or the Receiving Agent, ask to be categorized as a professional client if the subscriber fulfils the applicable requirements of the Norwegian Securities Trading Act. For further information about the categorization, the subscriber may contact Swedbank (Sedbank, Filipstad Brygge 1, P.O Box 1441 Vika, N-0115 Oslo, Norway) or DNB Markets (DNB Markets, KSC - Customer Administration, P.O. Box 7100, NO5020 Bergen, Norway or www.dnb.no/en/mifid). The subscriber represents that he/she/it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of a decision to invest in the Company by subscribing for Offer Shares, and is able to bear the economic risk, and to withstand a complete loss, of an investment in the Offer Shares.

Selling Restrictions: The attention of persons who wish to subscribe for Offer Shares is drawn to Section 14 “Selling and transfer restrictions” of the Prospectus. The Company is not taking any action to permit a public offering of the Subscription Rights or the Offer Shares (pursuant to the exercise of the Subscription Rights or otherwise) in any jurisdiction other than Norway. Receipt of the Prospectus will not constitute an offer in those jurisdictions in which it would be illegal to make an offer and, in those circumstances, the Prospectus is for information only and should not be copied or redistributed. Persons outside Norway should consult their professional advisors as to whether they require any governmental or other consent or need to observe any other formalities to enable them to subscribe for Offer Shares. It is the responsibility of any person wishing to subscribe for Offer Shares under the Rights Issue to satisfy himself as to the full observance of the laws of any relevant jurisdiction in connection therewith, including obtaining any governmental or other consent which may be required, the compliance with other necessary formalities and the payment of any issue, transfer or other taxes due in such territories. The Subscription Rights and Offer Shares have not been registered, and will not be registered, under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”) and may not be offered, sold, taken up, exercised, resold, delivered or transferred, directly or indirectly, within the United States, except pursuant to an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and in compliance with the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction of the United States. The Subscription Rights and Offer Shares have not been and will not be registered under the applicable securities laws of Australia, Canada or Japan and may not be offered, sold, taken up, exercised, resold, delivered or transferred, directly or indirectly, in or into Australia, Canada or Japan. This Subscription Form does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy Offer Shares in any jurisdiction in which such offer or solicitation is unlawful. A notification of exercise of Subscription Rights and subscription of Offer Shares in contravention of the above restrictions may be deemed to be invalid. By subscribing for the Offer Shares, persons effecting subscriptions will be deemed to have represented to the Company that they, and the persons on whose behalf they are subscribing for the Offer Shares, have complied with the above selling restrictions.

Execution Only: The Manager or the Receiving Agent will treat the Subscription Form as an execution-only instruction. The Managerand the Receiving Agent are not required to determine whether an investment in the Offer Shares is appropriate or not for the subscriber. Hence, the subscriber will not benefit from the protection of the relevant conduct of business rules in accordance with the Norwegian Securities Trading Act.

Information exchange: The subscriber acknowledges that, under the Norwegian Securities Trading Act and the Norwegian Commercial Banks Act and foreign legislation applicable to the Manager and the Receiving Agent there is a duty of secrecy between the different units of each of the Manager and the Receiving Agent as well as between the Manager and the Receiving Agent and the other entities in their respective groups. This may entail that other employees of the Manager and the Receiving Agent or the their respective groups may have information that may be relevant to the subscriber and to the assessment of the Offer Shares, but which the Manager or the Receiving Agent will not have access to in their capacity as Manager and Receiving Agent for the Offering.

Information barriers: The Manager and the Receiving Agent are securities firms that offer a broad range of investment services. In order to ensure that assignments undertaken in the Manager and the Receiving Agent's corporate finance departments are kept confidential, the Manager and the Receiving Agent's other activities, including analysis and stock broking, are separated from the their respective corporate finance departments by information walls. Consequently the subscriber acknowledges that the Manager and the Receiving Agent's analysis and stock broking activity may conflict with the subscriber’s interests with regard to transactions in the Shares, including the Offer Shares.

VPS account and mandatory anti-money laundering procedures: The Offering is subject to the Norwegian Money Laundering Act of 6 March 2009 No. 11 and the Norwegian Money Laundering Regulations of 13 March 2009 No. 302 (collectively, the “Anti-Money Laundering Legislation”). Subscribers who are not registered as existing customers of either the Manager or the Receiving Agent must verify their identity to one of the Manager and the Receving Agent in accordance with requirements of the Anti-Money Laundering Legislation, unless an exemption is available. Subscribers who have designated an existing Norwegian bank account and an existing VPS account on the Subscription Form are exempted, unless verification of identity is requested by the Manager or Receiving Agent. Subscribers who have not completed the required verification of identity prior to the expiry of the Subscription Period will not be allocated Offer Shares. Participation in the Offering is conditional upon the subscriber holding a VPS account. The VPS account number must be stated in the subscription form. VPS accounts can be established with authorized VPS registrars, who can be Norwegian banks, authorized securities brokers in Norway and Norwegian branches of credit institutions established within the EEA. Establishment of a VPS account requires verification of identity to the VPS registrar in accordance with the Anti-Money Laundering Legislation. However, non-Norwegian investors may use nominee VPS accounts registered in the name of a nominee. The nominee must be authorized by the Financial Supervisory Authority of Norway.

Terms and conditions for payment by direct debiting - securities trading: Payment by direct debiting is a service the banks in Norway provide in cooperation. In the relationship between the payer and the payer’s bank the following standard terms and conditions apply:

a) The service “Payment by direct debiting – securities trading” is supplemented by the account agreement between the payer and the payer’s bank, in particular Section C of the account agreement, General terms and conditions for deposit and payment instructions.

b) Costs related to the use of “Payment by direct debiting – securities trading” appear from the bank’s prevailing price list, account information and/or information given in another appropriate manner. The bank will charge the indicated account for costs incurred.

c) The authorization for direct debiting is signed by the payer and delivered to the beneficiary. The beneficiary will deliver the instructions to its bank that in turn will charge the payer’s bank account.

d) In case of withdrawal of the authorization for direct debiting the payer shall address this issue with the beneficiary. Pursuant to the Norwegian Financial Contracts Act the payer’s bank shall assist if the payer withdraws a payment instruction that has not been completed. Such withdrawal may be regarded as a breach of the agreement between the payer and the beneficiary.

e) The payer cannot authorize payment of a higher amount than the funds available on the payer’s account at the time of payment. The payer’s bank will normally perform a verification of available funds prior to the account being charged. If the account has been charged with an amount higher than the funds available, the difference shall immediately be covered by the payer.

f) The payer’s account will be charged on the indicated date of payment. If the date of payment has not been indicated in the authorization for direct debiting, the account will be charged as soon as possible after the beneficiary has delivered the instructions to its bank. The charge will not, however, take place after the authorization has expired as indicated above. Payment will normally be credited the beneficiary’s account between one and three working days after the indicated date of payment/delivery.

g) If the payer’s account is wrongfully charged after direct debiting, the payer’s right to repayment of the charged amount will be governed by the account agreement and the Norwegian Financial Contracts Act.

Overdue and missing payments: Overdue payments will be charged with interest at the applicable rate under the Norwegian Act on Interest on Overdue Payment of 17 December 1976 No. 100; 9.00% per annum as of the date of the Prospectus. If the subscriber fails to comply with the terms of payment or should payments not be made when due, the subscriber will remain liable for payment of the Offer Shares allocated to it and the Offer Shares allocated to such subscriber will not be delivered to the subscriber. In such case the Company, Swedbank and DNB Markets reserve the right to, at any time and at the risk and cost of the subscriber, re-allot, cancel or reduce the subscription and the allocation of the allocated Offer Shares, or, if payment has not been received by the third day after the Payment Date, without further notice sell, assume ownership to or otherwise dispose of the allocated Offer Shares in accordance with applicable law. If Offer Shares are sold on behalf of the subscriber, such sale will be for the subscriber’s account and risk and the subscriber will be liable for any loss, costs, charges and expenses suffered or incurred by the Company, Swedbank and/or DNB Markets as a result of, or in connection with, such sales. The Company, Swedbank and/or DNB Markets may enforce payment for any amounts outstanding in accordance with applicable law.
