If an Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 1.05, the party hereto which set such record date shall be deemed to have initially designated the 90th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this clause (j).

ARTICLE 8

LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

Section 8.01

Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

The Company may, at any time, pursuant to a resolution of its Board of Directors set forth in an Officers’ Certificate, elect to have either Section 8.02 or Section 8.03 applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 8.

Section 8.02

Legal Defeasance and Discharge.

(a) Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Company shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to the Indenture, all outstanding Notes on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (“Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the Notes, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (1) through (4) below, and to have satisfied all of its other obligations under such Notes and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), and this Indenture shall cease to be of further effect as to all Notes, except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

-32-

(1) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, and premium, interest or Additional Amounts, if any, on such Notes when such payments are due from the trust created pursuant to this Indenture referred to in Section 8.04;

(2) the Company’s obligations with respect to the Notes under Sections 2.03, 2.04, 2.06, 2.07, 2.10 and 4.02;

(3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee under this Indenture, and the Company’s obligations in connection therewith; and

(4) this Section 8.02.

(b) Following the Company’s exercise of its Legal Defeasance option, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default.

(c) Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03.

Section 8.03

Covenant Defeasance.

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Company shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be released from their obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 3.09, 4.03 and 4.05, shall be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (“Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(3) that resulted solely from the failure of the Company to comply with Sections 6.01(a)(4), 6.01(a)(5) (only with respect to covenants that are released as a result of such Covenant Defeasance) and 6.01(a)(6), shall not constitute an Event of Default.

(B) since the Issue Date, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law,

in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel will confirm that the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

(3) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

(4) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit or will occur as a result of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit (and any similar concurrent deposit relating to other Indebtedness), and the granting of Liens to secure such borrowings);

(5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture and the agreements governing any other Indebtedness being defeased, discharged or replaced) to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound;

(6) the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Company with the intent of preferring the Holders of Notes over the other creditors of the Company or others, with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors of the Company or others;

(7) the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with; and

Section 8.06

Repayment to the Company.

Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its request or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in The New York Times or The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining shall be repaid to the Company.

(c) It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver. It shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance of such proposed amendment, supplement or waiver.

(d) After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company will give to the Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment, supplement or waiver.

A consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver of this Indenture or the Notes by any Holder given in connection with a tender of such Holder’s Notes will not be rendered invalid by such tender.

Section 9.03 Compliance with Trust Indenture Act.If this Indenture is qualified under the Trust Indenture Act, every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes shall be set forth in an amended or supplemental indenture that complies with the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect.

Section 9.04 Revocation and Effect of Consents.(a)Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective.

(b) The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date pursuant to Section 1.05 for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver.

Section 9.05 Notation on or Exchange of Notes.The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Company in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver.

The Company shall pay interest semi-annually in arrears on June 30 and December 31 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest on the Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from and including [____________]⁵; [provided that the first Interest Payment Date shall be December 31, 2016]⁶. The Company shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the cash interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the cash interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

With respect to Interest Payment Dates on or prior to December 31, 2018, the Company, may, at its option, elect to pay interest on this Note (i) entirely in cash (“Cash Interest”), (ii) entirely by increasing the principal amount of this Note or by issuing PIK Notes (“PIK Interest”), (iii) in part as Cash Interest and in part as PIK Interest (“Partial PIK Interest”), in which case it shall designate the percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes to be paid in Cash Interest (the “Cash Designated Percentage”) and the percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes to be in Partial PIK Interest (the “Partial PIK Designated Percentage”) (it being understood that the sum of such percentages shall equal 100%), or (iv) entirely in Parent Ordinary Shares (“POS Interest”); provided no election to pay POS Interest shall be permitted or effective if the applicable POS Trading Price would be below the Baseline Price. The Company must elect the form of interest payment, including any designated percentages of Cash Interest and Partial PIK Interest, with respect to each interest period by delivering a notice to the Trustee, no later than 30 days prior to the Interest Payment Date. The Trustee shall promptly deliver a corresponding notice to the Holder of this Note. In the absence of such an election for any interest period, interest on this Note will be payable in the form of interest payment for the prior interest period unless such payment would be in POS Interest with respect to a period in which a payment in POS Interest would not be permitted in which case such payment shall be entirely in PIK Interest. With respect Interest Payment Dates after December 31, 2018, interest on the Notes shall be paid (1) in cash to the extent permitted by the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Agreement, dated as of [____], among Paragon Offshore PLC, as Parent Borrower, Paragon International Finance Company, as Cayman Borrower, the lenders from time to time party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”), (2) to the extent not so permitted to be paid in cash by the Revolving Credit Agreement, as POS Interest provided the applicable POS Trading Price would be equal to or greater than the Baseline Price and the Company has sufficient authorized shares under it charter to make such payment in accordance with applicable corporate law and (3) to the extent not payable in accordance with the foregoing clauses (1) and (2) of this sentence, as PIK Interest.

In the event the Company elects to pay Partial PIK Interest for any interest period, each Holder will be entitled to receive Cash Interest in respect of the Cash Designated Percentage of the principal amount of the Notes held by such Holder on the relevant record date and PIK Interest in respect of Partial PIK Designated Percentage of the principal amount of the Notes held by such Holder on the relevant record date. Following an increase in the principal amount of this Note as a result of a payment of PIK Interest, this Note will bear interest on such increased principal amount from and after the date of such payment of PIK Interest.

Principal and Cash Interest on the Notes shall be payable at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose or, at the option of the Company, payment of Cash Interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their respective addresses set forth in the Note Register; provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds shall be required with respect to principal and Cash Interest on all Global Notes. Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

If the Company shall pay POS Interest, it shall cause the relevant number of shares to be issued to the Holder entitled to such payment on the Interest Payment Date.
