In accordance with the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995, the Company notes that certain statements set forth in this 
presentation provide other than historical information and are forward looking. The
actual achievement of any forecasted results, or the unfolding of future economic or
business developments in a way anticipated or projected by the Company, involve
numerous risks and uncertainties that may cause the Company’s actual performance
to be materially different from that stated or implied in the forward-looking
statement. Among those risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the
control of the Company, include, without limitation, volatility in worldwide energy
demand and oil and gas prices; fleet additions by competitors and industry
overcapacity; changes in capital spending by customers in the energy industry for
offshore
exploration,
field
development
and
production;
changing
customer
demands
for vessel specifications, which may make some of our older vessels technologically
obsolete for certain customer projects or in certain markets; uncertainty of global
financial market conditions and difficulty in accessing credit or capital; acts of
terrorism and piracy; significant weather conditions; unsettled political conditions,
war, civil unrest and governmental actions, such as expropriation, especially in higher
risk countries where we operate; foreign currency fluctuations; labor influences
proposed by international conventions; increased regulatory burdens and oversight
following
the
Deepwater
Horizon
incident;
and
enforcement
of
laws
related
to
the
environment,
labor
and
foreign
corrupt
practices.
Readers
should
consider
all
of
these
risk factors as well as other information contained in this report.
