AMOUNT AND TERMS OF THE ADVANCES AND LETTERS OF CREDIT

Section 2.01 The Advances. Each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make one or more Advances to the Borrowers from time to time on any Business Day prior to the Commitment Termination Date in an aggregate amount not to exceed (i) the amount of such Lender’s Commitment minus (ii) such Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure (after giving effect to any Advances to be made on such Business Day); provided that no Advance shall be required to be made except as part of a Borrowing that is in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and is not less than the Borrowing Minimum, and each Borrowing shall consist of Advances of the same Type having (in the case of a Borrowing comprised of LIBOR Advances) the same Interest Period, made on the same day by the Lenders ratably according to their respective Commitments. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow, prepay and reborrow Advances. Funding of any Advances shall be in any combination of U.S. Dollars or Euros as specified by the requesting Borrower as set forth in Section 2.02; provided that any Advances funded in Euros may only be outstanding as LIBOR Advances. Each Lender may, at its option, make any Advance available to BVI Borrower by causing any foreign or domestic branch or affiliate of such Lender to make such Advance; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrowers and if applicable, the Guarantors, to repay such Advance in accordance with the terms of the Credit Documents.

Section 2.02 Making the Advances. (a) Each Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than (x) in the case of a proposed Borrowing comprised of LIBOR Advances to be funded in U.S. Dollars, 12:00 Noon (New York City time) at least three Business Days prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing, (y) in the case of a proposed Borrowing comprised of LIBOR Advances to be funded in Euros, 12:00 Noon (New York City time) at least four Business Days prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing and

(z) in the case of a proposed Borrowing comprised of Base Rate Advances, 4:00 P.M. (New York City time) at least two Business Days prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing, by any Borrower to the Administrative Agent, which shall give prompt notice thereof by telecopy to each Lender. Each such notice of a Borrowing (a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be by telecopy or by telephone, confirmed promptly in writing. Each written Notice of Borrowing shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B, and each written and each telephonic Notice of Borrowing shall specify therein (i) the date of the requested Borrowing, (ii) the Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing, (iii) the aggregate amount of such Borrowing, (iv) the identity of the Borrower requesting such Borrowing, (v) in the case of a Borrowing comprised of LIBOR Advances, whether such Advances are to be made in Dollars or Euros and the initial Interest Period for each such Advance, provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of ten (10) Borrowings comprised of LIBOR Advances outstanding; and (vi) the location and number of the account of the requesting Borrower to which funds are to be disbursed. If no election as to the Type of Advances comprising a requested Borrowing is specified in a Notice of Borrowing, then the requested Borrowing shall be comprised of Base Rate Advances. If no Interest Period with respect to any requested Eurodollar Borrowing is specified in a Notice of Borrowing, then the requesting Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. If no currency with respect to any requested Eurodollar Borrowing is specified in a Notice of Borrowing, then the requesting Borrower shall be deemed to have requested that the Advances comprising such Borrowing be made in Dollars. Promptly following receipt of a Notice of Borrowing in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Advance to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

(b) On the proposed date of a Borrowing, each Lender shall, before 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) with respect to Borrowings comprised of LIBOR Advances funded in U.S. Dollars, before 2:00 P.M. (London time) with respect to LIBOR Advances funded in Euros and before 2:00 P.M. (New York City time) with respect to Borrowings comprised of Base Rate Advances, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at its Payment Office, in same day funds, such Lender’s Ratable Percentage of such Borrowing. After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the requesting Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received in like funds to the account designated by such Borrower in the applicable Notice of Borrowing or, if no such account is specified in such Notice of Borrowing, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to such Borrower at the Administrative Agent’s Payment Office.

(c) Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the requesting Borrower. The requesting Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing for such Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing when such Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with subsection (b) of this Section 2.02 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the requesting Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and such Borrower severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to such Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to Advances comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Advance as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. If such Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to such Borrower the amount of such interest paid by such Borrower for such period. Any payment by such Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim such Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

(e) The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Advance on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.

(f) Any Lender may request that Advances made by it be evidenced by a Note in the principal amount of such Lender’s Commitment. In such event, each Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to each such Lender a Note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and substantially in the form of Note attached hereto as Exhibit A-1 in the case of a Note to be made by Pride and Exhibit A-2 in the case of a Note to be made by BVI Borrower. In addition, if a Lender holding a Note increases its Commitment under Section 2.16 hereof, and such Lender requests a new Note evidencing such increased Commitment, each Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a replacement Note in exchange for such Lender’s existing Note, payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and substantially in the form of Note attached hereto as Exhibit A.

Section 2.03 Fees. (a) Commitment Fee. Subject to Section 2.11(b)(i), Pride agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate on the daily unused amount of such Lender’s Commitment, from the date hereof, in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof, and from the effective date specified in the Transfer Agreement pursuant to which it became a Lender, in the case of each other Lender, until the Commitment Termination Date; provided that, if such Lender continues to have any Revolving Credit Exposure after its Commitment terminates, then such commitment fee shall continue to accrue on the daily amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure from and including the date on which its Commitment terminates to but excluding the date on which such Lender ceases to have any Revolving Credit Exposure. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the 7^th day of each January, April, July and October, commencing October 7, 2010, on the Commitment Termination Date, and if the immediately preceding proviso is applicable, on the date(s) the Lenders shall have no further Revolving Credit Exposure. The commitment fee shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(b) Other Fees. Pride shall pay to the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers such fees as may be separately agreed to by Pride and the Administrative Agent or the Arrangers, as applicable, in writing.

Section 2.04 Repayments of Advances. (a) Each Borrower shall repay the principal of all of the Advances and Demand Loans made to such Borrower on the Commitment Termination Date. Additionally, if at any time the sum of (i) the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of all Advances owed to any Lender plus (ii) such Lender’s Ratable Percentage of the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate outstanding Letter of Credit Liabilities exceeds such Lender’s Commitment, each Borrower shall repay to the Lenders the Advances made to such Borrower in an amount necessary so that no Lender is owed a Dollar Equivalent principal amount of Advances that exceeds the sum of (y) such Lender’s Commitment minus (z) such Lender’s Ratable Percentage of the Dollar Equivalent of the outstanding Letter of Credit Liabilities. If any Borrower determines that any such payment is required, such Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent promptly, and shall make such payments within two Business Days of such determination of such required payment and of the identity of the particular Advances being paid by such Borrower. If the Administrative Agent shall notify Pride that the Administrative Agent has determined that any payments are required under this Section 2.04, Pride and/or BVI Borrower shall make such payments no later than the second Business Day following Pride’s receipt of such notice. Any mandatory payment of Advances pursuant hereto shall not be limited by the notice provision for prepayments set forth in Section 2.09.

(b) At the time of each payment pursuant to this Section 2.04, each Borrower shall also pay accrued interest to the date of such payment on the principal amount paid by such Borrower. If any Borrower pays any LIBOR Advance on any day other than the last day of an Interest Period therefor, such Borrower shall compensate the Lenders pursuant to Section 8.04(b). Each payment made by any Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.04 shall be applied ratably to all of the Advances and Demand Loans made to such Borrower.

(c) To the extent that any amount would be required hereunder to be paid and applied to an Advance or a Demand Loan but for the fact that no Advance or Demand Loan remains outstanding, the applicable Borrower will pay such amount (but not in excess of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of Letter of Credit Liabilities of such Borrower at such time) and cause such amount to be deposited in a Collateral Account to be applied against Letter of Credit Liabilities as they arise.

Section 2.05 Interest. Each Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance made to such Borrower from the date of such Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum:

(a) Base Rate Advances. During such periods as such Advance is a Base Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal to the Alternative Base Rate in effect from time to time, payable quarterly on the 7^th day of each January, April, July and October during such periods, on each other date provided herein and on the date such Base Rate Advance shall be Converted.

(b) LIBOR Advances. During such periods as such Advance is a LIBOR Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times during each Interest Period for such Advance to the sum of the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period for such Advance plus the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time, payable on the last day of such Interest Period, on each other date provided herein and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on the day which occurs during such Interest Period three months from the first day of such Interest Period.

(c) Default Interest. Each Borrower shall pay interest on (i) all principal of any Advance made to such Borrower that is not paid when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), payable in arrears on demand, at a rate per annum equal to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on such Advance pursuant to Section 2.05(a) or 2.05(b), as the case may be, and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by law, the amount of any interest, commitment fee, Letter of Credit fee, other fee or other amount payable hereunder, in each case to the extent payable by such Borrower, that is not paid when due, from the date such amount shall be due until such amount shall be paid in full, payable in arrears on the date such amount shall be paid in full and on demand, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on Base Rate Advances pursuant to Section 2.05(a).

(d) Interest Payment Currency. Payments of interest with respect to each Advance or Demand Loan made hereunder shall be made in the same currency as such Advance or Demand Loan.

Each Borrower shall pay to each Lender additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each LIBOR Advance made to such Borrower by such Lender, for each Interest Period with respect to such Advance, from the date of such Advance until such principal amount is paid in full, at an interest rate per annum equal at all times to the remainder obtained by subtracting (a) the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period for such Advance from (b) the rate obtained by dividing such LIBO Rate by a percentage equal to 100% minus the Eurodollar Rate Reserve Percentage of such Lender for such Interest Period, payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Advance. Such additional interest shall be determined by

such Lender and notified to the applicable Borrower through the Administrative Agent. Each Lender requesting payment of additional interest pursuant to this Section 2.06 shall deliver to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent a certificate as to the amount of such additional interest (setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation thereof), and such certificate shall be conclusive and binding (absent manifest error) for all purposes.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation shall make it unlawful, or any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency shall assert that it is unlawful (such unlawfulness or such assertion of unlawfulness being an “Illegality Event”), (x) for any Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office (such Lender being an “Affected Lender”) (I) to perform its obligations hereunder to make LIBOR Advances, or to continue to fund or maintain LIBOR Advances hereunder, or (II) to fund any Advances in Euros, or (y) for any Issuing Bank to issue any Letter of Credit or to provide payment under any Letter of Credit in Euros (such Issuing Bank being an “Affected Issuing Bank”), then the following provisions shall apply:

(i) In the case of an Illegality Event described in clause (x)(I) above, on notice thereof and demand therefor by the applicable Affected Lender to Pride through the Administrative Agent, (a) the obligation of the Lenders to make, continue or Convert Advances into LIBOR Advances shall be suspended until the time set forth in the next succeeding sentence, and (b) the Borrowers shall forthwith Convert all LIBOR Advances of all Lenders then outstanding into Base Rate Advances in accordance with Section 2.08. The suspension of the obligations of the Lenders to make, continue or Convert Advances into LIBOR Advances as set forth in the preceding sentence shall terminate upon the earlier of (A) the withdrawal by each Affected Lender of its notice and demand with respect to the Illegality Event referenced in this Section 2.11(a)(i) and (B) the replacement by the Borrowers of each Affected Lender pursuant to Section 2.17(a) hereof with an Eligible Assignee that is not an Affected Lender. If an Illegality Event described in clause (x)(I) above ceases to exist with respect to an

Affected Lender that has given notice and demand with respect to such Illegality Event pursuant to this Section 2.11(a)(i), such Lender shall promptly withdraw such notice and demand by giving written notice of withdrawal to the Administrative Agent and Pride. Upon termination of a suspension of the obligations of the Lenders to make, continue or Convert Advances into LIBOR Advances as provided in this Section 2.11(a)(i), the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of such termination, and the Lenders shall thereupon again be obligated to make, continue or Convert Advances into LIBOR Advances in accordance with and to the extent provided in this Agreement;

(ii) In the case of an Illegality Event described in clause (x)(II) above, on notice thereof and demand therefor by the applicable Affected Lender to Pride through the Administrative Agent, the obligation of the Lenders to make Advances denominated in Euros shall be suspended until the earlier of (A) the withdrawal by each Affected Lender of its notice and demand with respect to such Illegality Event and (B) the replacement by the Borrowers of each Affected Lender pursuant to Section 2.17(a) hereof with an Eligible Assignee that is not an Affected Lender. If an Illegality Event described in clause (x)(II) above ceases to exist with respect to an Affected Lender that has given notice and demand with respect to such Illegality Event pursuant to this Section 2.11(a)(ii), such Lender shall promptly withdraw such notice and demand by giving written notice of withdrawal to the Administrative Agent and Pride. Upon termination of a suspension of the obligations of the Lenders to make Advances denominated in Euros as provided in this Section 2.11(a)(ii), the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of such termination, and the Lenders shall thereupon again be obligated to make Advances denominated in Euros in accordance with and to the extent provided in this Agreement; and

(iii) In the case of an Illegality Event described in clause (y) above, on notice thereof and demand therefor by the applicable Affected Issuing Bank to Pride through the Administrative Agent, the obligation of the Affected Issuing Bank to issue Letters of Credit or to provide payment under any Letter of Credit in Euros, as applicable, shall be suspended until the withdrawal by such Affected Issuing Bank of its notice and demand with respect to such Illegality Event. If an Illegality Event described in clause (y) above ceases to exist with respect to an Affected Issuing Bank that has given notice and demand with respect to such Illegality Event pursuant to this Section 2.11(a)(iii), such Issuing Bank shall promptly withdraw such notice and demand by giving written notice of withdrawal to the Administrative Agent and Pride. Upon termination of a suspension of the obligations of an Affected Issuing Bank to issue Letters of Credit or to provide payment under any Letter of Credit in Euros, as applicable, as provided in this Section 2.11(a)(iii), such Issuing Bank shall thereupon again be obligated to issue Letters of Credit or to provide payment under any Letter of Credit in Euros, as applicable, in accordance with and to the extent provided in this Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Defaulting Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(i) If such Lender is a Defaulting Lender due to (A) its failure to fund any Advance required to be funded by it hereunder, commitment fees shall cease to accrue pursuant to Section 2.03(a) on the portion of such Lender’s Commitment equal to the amount of such defaulted Advance, and (B) any other circumstance described in the definition of Defaulting Lender, commitment fees shall cease to accrue pursuant to Section 2.03(a) on the entire Commitment of such Lender (in each case, without prejudice to the rights of the Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders in respect of such fees).

(ii) The Commitment and outstanding Advances of such Defaulting Lender shall be disregarded for all purposes of any determination of whether the requisite Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 8.01); provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender which by its terms affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

(iii) Subject to Section 2.17, no Commitment of any Lender shall be increased or otherwise affected solely as a result of the operation of this Section 2.11(b) and, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 2.11(b), performance by the Borrowers of their obligations hereunder and the other Credit Documents shall not be excused or otherwise modified solely as a result of the existence of any Defaulting Lender or the operation of this Section 2.11(b).

(iv) The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.11(b) are in addition to other rights and remedies which the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or the Borrowers may have against such Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.12 Payments and Computations. (a) The Borrowers shall make each payment under any Credit Document not later than 4:00 P.M. (New York City time), or in the case of payment in Euros, not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time), on the day when due to the Administrative Agent at its Payment Office (or to an Issuing Bank, in the case of payments to an Issuing Bank under Section 2.19) in same day funds, free and clear of any defenses, set-offs, counterclaims, or withholdings or deductions for taxes as set forth in Section 2.13. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed (i) like funds relating to the payment of principal of or interest on Advances, commitment fees or commissions on Letters of Credit as contemplated by Section 2.19(b) ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.06 or 2.17) to the Lenders (decreased, as to any Lender, for any taxes withheld in respect of such Lender as contemplated by Section 2.13(b)) for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices and (ii) like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of a Transfer

Agreement and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 8.06(d), from and after the effective date specified in such Transfer Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Transfer Agreement shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves. At the time of each payment of any principal of or interest on any Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, the applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of the Borrowing to which such payment shall apply. In the absence of such notice, the Administrative Agent may specify the Borrowing to which such payment shall apply and with respect to voluntary prepayments, will apply such payments first to Base Rate Advances and second to LIBOR Advances (in the order of shortest to longest Interest Period). If a payment is due in Euros and the applicable Borrower does not, or is unable for any reason to, effect payment to the Lenders in Euros or if the applicable Borrower shall default in the payment when due of any payment in Euros, the Lenders may, at their option, require such payment to be made to the Lenders in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of Euros then due. With respect to any amount due and payable in Euros by any Borrower, such Borrower agrees to hold the Lenders harmless from any losses, if any, that are incurred by the Lenders arising from any change in the value of Dollars in relation to Euros between the date such payment became due and the date of payment thereof.

(b) All computations of interest based on the Alternative Base Rate (except during such times as the Alternative Base Rate is determined pursuant to clause (ii) and (iii) of the definition thereof) shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of commitment fees and of interest based on the LIBO Rate, the Federal Funds Rate or, during such times as the Alternative Base Rate is determined pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of the definition thereof, shall be made by the Administrative Agent, and all computations of interest pursuant to Section 2.06 shall be made by a Lender, on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or commitment fees are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of Section 2.06, by a Lender) of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(c) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or commitment fees, as the case may be; provided that if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of LIBOR Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from any Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due from such Borrower to any Lender hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to such Lender on such due date an

amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent such Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.

Section 2.13 Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by the Borrowers hereunder or under the other Credit Documents shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.12, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, fees, duties or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Lender and any other Lender Party, taxes imposed on its income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender or Lender Party (as the case may be) is organized or any political subdivision thereof and, in the case of each Lender, taxes imposed on its income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction of such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, fees, duties, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If any Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Credit Document to any Lender or other Lender Party, (i) the sum payable by such Borrower shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.13) such Lender or other Lender Party (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, each of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled, to the extent it is required to do so by law, to deduct or withhold income or other similar taxes imposed by the United States of America from interest, fees or other amounts payable hereunder for the account of any Lender Party (without the payment by the Borrowers of increased amounts to such Lender Party pursuant to clause (a) above) other than a Lender Party (i) which is a domestic corporation (as such term is defined in Section 7701 of the Code) for federal income tax purposes or (ii) which has the Prescribed Forms on file with Pride and the Administrative Agent for the applicable year, provided that if any Borrower shall so deduct or withhold any such taxes, it shall provide a statement to the Administrative Agent and such Lender Party, setting forth the amount of such taxes so deducted or withheld, the applicable rate and any other information or documentation which such Lender Party may reasonably request for assisting such Lender Party to obtain any allowable credits or deductions for the taxes so deducted or withheld in the jurisdiction or jurisdictions in which such Lender is subject to tax.

(c) In addition, each Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made by such Borrower hereunder or under any other Credit Document or from such Borrower’s execution and delivery of, or the registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or the any other Credit Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(d) Except as otherwise provided by Section 2.13(b), each Borrower will indemnify each Lender and each other Lender Party for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.13) paid by such Lender or other Lender Party (as the case may be) attributable to payments made by such Borrower and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto except as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Lender or other Lender Party (as the case may be), whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender or the other Lender Party (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor. No Lender or other Lender Party shall be indemnified for Taxes incurred or accrued more than 90 days prior to the date that such Lender or other Lender Party notifies Pride thereof.

(e) Within 90 days after the date of any payment of Taxes by or at the direction of any Borrower, such Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 8.02, (i) the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof, if the relevant taxing authority provides a receipt, or (ii) if the relevant taxing authority does not provide a receipt, other reasonable evidence of the payment thereof. Should any Lender or other Lender Party ever receive any refund, credit or deduction from any taxing authority to which such Lender or other Lender Party would not be entitled but for the payment by any Borrower of Taxes as required by this Section 2.13 (it being understood that the decision as to whether or not to claim, and if claimed, as to the amount of any such refund, credit or deduction shall be made by such Lender or other Lender Party, as the case may be, in its sole discretion), such Lender or other Lender Party, as the case may be, thereupon shall repay to such Borrower an amount with respect to such refund, credit or deduction equal to any net reduction in taxes actually obtained by such Lender or other Lender Party, as the case may be, and determined by such Lender or other Lender Party, as the case may be, to be attributable to such refund, credit or deduction.

(f) Each Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and legal and regulatory restrictions) to select a jurisdiction for its Applicable Lending Office or change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office, as the case may be, so as to avoid the imposition of any Taxes or to eliminate the amount of any such additional amounts which may thereafter accrue; provided that no such selection or change of the jurisdiction for its Applicable Lending Office shall be made if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such selection or change would be disadvantageous to such Lender.

(g) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrowers contained in this Section 2.13 shall survive the payment in full of all Obligations but shall terminate thereafter at the end of six months after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations for assessment of Taxes or Other Taxes against a Lender or Lender Party with respect to payments by the Borrowers hereunder or under the other Credit Documents. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Lender Parties contained in this Section 2.13 shall survive the payment in full of all Obligations.

Section 2.14 Sharing of Payments, Etc. (a) If any Lender (a “benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on account of the principal of or interest on the Advances owed to it (other than pursuant to Section 2.06 or 2.17) or participations in Letter of Credit Liabilities (“Other Participations”) held by it (other than pursuant to Section 2.06 or 2.17) in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of the Advances or Other Participations, as the case may be, obtained by all Lenders, such benefited Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Advances owed to them or in their Other Participations, as the case may be, as shall be necessary to cause such benefited Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them, provided that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such benefited Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and each such Lender shall repay to the benefited Lender the purchase price to the extent of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of the participation purchased from such Lender as a result of such excess payment to (ii) the total amount of such excess payment) of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the benefited Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the benefited Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered.

(b) Each Credit Party agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.14 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of such Credit Party in the amount of such participation.

Section 2.15 Ratable Reduction or Termination of the Commitments; Effect of Termination. (a) Pride shall have the right at any time and from time to time, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior and irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate in whole or reduce ratably in part the unused portions of the respective Commitments of the Lenders, with any partial reduction (i) to be in an amount not less than $5,000,000 as determined by Pride in integral multiples of $1,000,000 and (ii) as to the Commitments, to be allocated ratably among the Lenders in proportion to their respective Commitments; provided, that the Commitments may not be reduced to an amount less than the sum of the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Advances plus the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate amount of outstanding Letter of Credit Liabilities (after giving effect to payments on such proposed termination or reduction date). The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to each Lender of any such termination or reduction of the Commitments. Any termination of Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.15 is permanent and may not be reinstated.

(b) Upon and at all times after any Commitment of any Lender is terminated pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, such Commitment shall be zero and such Lender shall have no further obligation to make any Advances.

Section 2.16 Increase of Commitments; Additional Lenders.

(a) From time to time, on or after the Effective Date, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or would occur as a result of a commitment increase pursuant to this Section 2.16, on the applicable Commitment Increase Effective Date, Pride may, upon written notice to the Administrative Agent, elect to increase the Commitments in minimum increments of $10,000,000 up to a maximum aggregate amount (after giving effect thereto) of $750,000,000. In no event shall the aggregate Commitments of all Lenders exceed $750,000,000 at any time. At the time of sending such notice with respect to any increase in the Commitments, Pride (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the proposed Commitment Increase Effective Date for such increase in the Commitments.

(b) Pride may designate one or more banks or other financial institutions (which may be, but need not be, one or more of the existing Lenders) which at the time agree to, in the case of any such Person that is an existing Lender, increase its Commitment and, in the case of any other such Person (an “Additional Lender”), become a party to this Agreement; provided, however, (i) any bank or financial institution that is not an existing Lender must be acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks, which acceptance will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and (ii) the Commitment of each Additional Lender must be at least $5,000,000. No Lender shall have any obligation whatsoever to agree to increase its Commitment.

(c) An increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall become effective (the “Commitment Increase Effective Date”) upon (i) receipt by the Administrative Agent of (x) a Joinder Agreement signed by the Borrowers, by each Additional Lender and by each other Lender whose Commitment is to be increased, (y) evidence of appropriate corporate authorization on the part of the Borrowers with respect to the increase in the Commitments and (z) opinions of counsel for the Borrowers with respect to the increase in the Commitments as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request and (ii) satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.04. Promptly after any Commitment Increase Effective Date, the Administrative Agent will provide the Lenders a copy of Schedule II to the applicable Joinder Agreement listing the Commitments and Ratable Percentages of each Lender after such Commitment Increase Effective Date.

(d) Upon the acceptance of any such Joinder Agreement by the Administrative Agent, the Commitments shall automatically be increased by the amount of the Commitments added through such Joinder Agreement and the Commitments of each Lender whose Commitment is being increased set forth on Schedule I hereto shall automatically be deemed to be updated to reflect the increased amount of such Lender’s Commitment after giving effect to such Joinder Agreement.

(e) Upon any increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.16 that is not pro rata among all Lenders, (x) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall as of the effective date of such increase make adjustments to the outstanding principal amount of Advances (but not any interest accrued thereon or any accrued fees prior to such date), including, subject to the conditions specified in Section 3.02, the borrowing of additional Advances hereunder and the repayment of Advances plus all applicable accrued interest, fees and expenses as shall be necessary to provide for Advances by the Lenders in proportion to their respective Commitments after giving effect to such increase, together with any breakage fees and funding losses that are required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.06 and Section 2.10, and each Lender shall be deemed to have made an assignment of its outstanding Advances and Commitments, and assumed outstanding Advances and Commitments of other Lenders as of the effective date of such increase as may be necessary to effect the foregoing, and (y) effective upon such increase, the amount of the unfunded participations held by each Lender in each Letter of Credit then outstanding shall be adjusted such that, after giving effect to such adjustments, the Lenders shall hold unfunded participations in each such Letter of Credit in the proportion its respective Commitment bears to the aggregate Commitments after giving effect to such increase.

Section 2.17 Replacement of Lender. (a) In the event that (i) any Lender demands payment pursuant to Section 2.06, 2.10 or 2.13, (ii) any Lender becomes an Affected Lender as set forth in Section 2.11, (iii) any Lender (a “Non-Consenting Lender”) refuses to consent to an amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement or any other action that, pursuant to Section 8.01, requires consent of 100% of the Lenders (or 100% of the Lenders affected thereby) and the Supermajority Lenders have provided their consent to such amendment, modification or waiver or other action, or (iv) any Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender, the Borrowers shall have the right, (x) in the case of the circumstances described in clauses (i) and (ii), within 30 days after the date of the giving by such Lender of any notice or demand required or otherwise permitted to be given pursuant to Section 2.06, 2.10, 2.11 or 2.13, and (y) in the case of the circumstances described in clauses (iii) and (iv), at any time such Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender, as applicable, in each case as long as no Event of Default or Default then exists, to replace such Lender in accordance with the procedure set forth in Section 2.17(b); provided that no such replacement shall be effected without (i) the prior written consent of the Issuing Banks (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) and (ii) in the case of the replacement of a Lender that is an Issuing Bank, termination of all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank (or other satisfaction of such Letters of Credit in a manner acceptable to the Issuing Bank) and, if there are no other Issuing Banks at the time, the agreement of the replacement Lender to become an Issuing Bank.

(b) If the Borrowers determine to replace a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.17, then the Borrowers will replace such Lender with an Eligible Assignee in accordance with Section 8.06(a), (b) and (d), including execution by such Eligible Assignee of an appropriate Transfer Agreement, provided that no Lender or other Person shall have any obligation to increase its Commitment or otherwise to replace, in whole or in part, any Lender and further provided that if such Lender being replaced is a Non-Consenting Lender, each Eligible Assignee shall consent, at the time of assignment, to each matter in respect of which such replaced Lender was a Non-Consenting Lender and the Borrowers shall also replace each other Lender that is a Non-Consenting Lender at such time with an Eligible Assignee as provided in this Section 2.17(b). Upon satisfaction of the requirements set forth in the first sentence of this Section 2.17(b), payment to such Lender of all principal, interest and such Lender’s share of accrued

commitment fees and Letter of Credit commissions, in immediately available funds, and the payment by the Borrowers of all requested costs accruing to the date of purchase which the Borrowers are obligated to pay underSection 8.04 and all other amounts owed by the Borrowers to such Lender, (i) such Lender being replaced shall execute such Transfer Agreement and shall no longer constitute a “Lender” hereunder and all of its Commitments shall be deemed terminated, except that its rights under Sections 2.06, 2.10, 2.13 and 8.04 shall continue with respect to events and occurrences occurring before or concurrently with its ceasing to be a “Lender” hereunder, and (ii) such Eligible Assignee shall constitute a “Lender” hereunder in accordance with such Transfer Agreement (including assumption of the Commitment, if any, and other obligations of the Lender being so replaced).

Section 2.18 Certificates of Lenders. Any Lender demanding or giving notice of amounts due to such Lender under Section 2.10 or 2.13 shall, as part of each demand or notice for payment required under such Section, deliver to Pride (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount and basis of the increased costs or additional amounts payable to such Lender hereunder, and such certificate shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error.

Section 2.19 Letters of Credit. (a) Each Issuing Bank agrees, on the terms and conditions herein set forth, to issue Letters of Credit for the account of any Borrower in support of obligations of such Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the date hereof until one month before the Maturity Date; provided that (i) at no time shall the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate Letter of Credit Liabilities exceed $100,000,000, nor shall any Lender that is an Issuing Bank have any obligation, without such Lenders’ consent, to issue Letters of Credit that exceed, in the aggregate, the Dollar Equivalent of $33,333,334, (ii) no Letter of Credit shall have a Stated Expiry Date later than the earlier of one year from the date of its issuance and five (5) Business Days prior to the Maturity Date, and (iii) at no time shall a Letter of Credit be issued if, after giving effect thereto, the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate outstanding amount of Advances plus the Dollar Equivalent of the outstanding Letter of Credit Liabilities exceeds the Commitments. Each Letter of Credit shall be issued on notice given by a Borrower to an Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (which shall give to each Lender prompt notice thereof) not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the issuance of the proposed Letter of Credit. Each such notice of a Letter of Credit (a “Notice of Letter of Credit”) shall be by telecopier, in substantially the form of Exhibit C, specifying therein the requested (i) date of issuance of such Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) amount of such Letter of Credit and whether such amount is to be denominated in Dollars or Euros, (iii) expiration date of such Letter of Credit, and (iv) purpose and terms of such Letter of Credit and other information contemplated by Exhibit C. Additionally, if requested by an Issuing Bank, the applicable Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Issuing Bank an application for letter of credit on such Issuing Bank’s standard form or on another form agreed upon by such Borrower and such Issuing Bank. Letters of Credit and any increases and extensions thereof hereunder may be issued in face amounts of either Dollars or Euros. Each Issuing Bank may, at its option, issue any Letter of Credit on behalf of BVI Borrower by causing any foreign or domestic branch or affiliate of such Issuing Bank to issue such Letter of Credit; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay all drawings and other amounts due under such Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms of the Credit Documents.

(b) With respect to each Letter of Credit issued by an Issuing Bank, the Borrower for the account of which such Letter of Credit was issued agrees to pay (i) to such Issuing Bank, for its sole account, a fronting fee in the amount agreed between such Issuing Bank and such Borrower prior to delivery of the Notice of Letter of Credit on the maximum face amount of such Letter of Credit and (ii) to the Administrative Agent a commission, computed (on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed) at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time, on the maximum face amount of such Letter of Credit from the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit until the Expiration Date for such Letter of Credit payable quarterly in arrears on the 7^th day of each January, April, July and October and on such Expiration Date (which commission shall be shared ratably by all Lenders (including the Issuing Bank) based on their respective Ratable Percentages). For any Letter of Credit issued with a face amount in Euros, the fees shall be converted into Dollars using the applicable Exchange Rate in effect on the day such fee shall be due and payable hereunder. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, during such period as a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, to the extent any Borrower has provided Cash Collateral in respect of such Defaulting Lender’s unreallocated obligations with respect to a Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.20(b) or Section 2.21(b), such Defaulting Lender will not be entitled to any fees accruing during such period pursuant to this Section 2.19(b) (without prejudice to the rights of the Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders in respect of such fees), provided that (i) to the extent that a portion of the Letter of Credit Liabilities of such Defaulting Lender is reallocated to the Non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to Section 2.20, such fees that would have accrued for the benefit of such Defaulting Lender will instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to such Non-Defaulting Lenders, pro rata in accordance with their respective portions of such reallocation, and (ii) to the extent any portion of such Letter of Credit Liabilities cannot be so reallocated and have not been Cash Collateralized by any Borrower, such fees will instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to the applicable Issuing Bank as its interests appear (and the pro rata payment provisions of Section 2.12 will automatically be deemed adjusted to reflect the provisions of this Section). Additionally, the applicable Borrower agrees to pay to each Issuing Bank solely for such Issuing Bank’s account, in connection with each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, customary issuance and administrative fees and expenses for such Letter of Credit as agreed from time to time between such Issuing Bank and such Borrower.

(c) Each Borrower will immediately and unconditionally pay to each Issuing Bank upon demand the amount of each payment made by such Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit issued by it for the account of such Borrower. If the applicable Borrower shall fail to pay to such Issuing Bank the amount of any such payment immediately upon demand in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such payment shall immediately constitute, without necessity of further act or evidence, a loan (a “Demand Loan”) made by such Issuing Bank to such Borrower on the date of such payment in a principal amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such payment and repayable upon demand, together with interest on the principal amount of such Demand Loan remaining unpaid from time to time, payable on demand and computed from the date such Demand Loan is made as specified above to the date of repayment in full thereof, at a rate per annum equal to the Alternative Base Rate in effect from time to time plus 2% per annum.

(d) The obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement and any other agreement or instrument relating to any Letter of Credit shall be unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such other agreement or instrument under all circumstances, including the following circumstances:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any Letter of Credit or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto (collectively, the “L/C Related Documents”);

(ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the obligations of the applicable Borrower in respect of any Letter of Credit or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the L/C Related Documents;

(iii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that any Borrower may have at any time against any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the Issuing Bank or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by the L/C Related Documents or any other matter;

(iv) any statement or any other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(v) payment by the Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or

(vi) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral for, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any guarantee of, all or any of the obligations of applicable Borrower in respect of any Letter of Credit.

However, this Section 2.19(d) shall not limit any right of the Borrowers to make a claim against the Issuing Bank to the extent provided in Section 2.19(e).

(e) Each Borrower assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower with respect to the use of such Letter of Credit. Neither the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit nor any branch, affiliate or correspondent bank of such Issuing Bank nor any of their respective employees, agents, officers or directors shall be liable or responsible for: (a) the use that may be made of any Letter of Credit issued by it or any acts

or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit issued by it in connection therewith; (b) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should prove to be invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; (c) payment by such Issuing Bank against presentation of documents that do not strictly comply with the terms of the relevant Letter of Credit, including failure of any documents to bear any reference or adequate reference to the relevant Letter of Credit; or (d) any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under any Letter of Credit issued by it; provided that, notwithstanding clauses (a) through (d) of this sentence, each Borrower shall have a claim against any Issuing Bank that issues a Letter of Credit for the account of such Borrower, and such Issuing Bank shall be liable to such Borrower, to the extent of any direct, but not consequential or other, damages suffered by such Borrower that such Borrower proves were caused by (i) such Issuing Bank’s willful misconduct or gross negligence in determining whether documents presented under such Letter of Credit issued by it comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (ii) such Issuing Bank’s willful failure to make lawful payment under such Letter of Credit issued by it after the presentation to it of a draft and documents strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary.

(f) Upon the date of the issuance of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank that issues such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to have sold to each other Lender, and each other Lender shall have been deemed to have purchased from such Issuing Bank, a ratable participation in the related Letter of Credit Liabilities and all related Demand Loans equal to such Lender’s Ratable Percentage at such date. Each Issuing Bank that issues a Letter of Credit shall promptly notify each such participant Lender of each Letter of Credit issued or increased by it, the amount of such Lender’s participation in such Letter of Credit and each payment thereunder. Upon the making of any payment under a Letter of Credit issued by an Issuing Bank, each Lender (other than such Issuing Bank) shall pay for the purchase of its participation therein by immediate payment to such Issuing Bank of same day funds in the amount of its participation in such payment.

(g) If any Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, if any Letter of Credit is at the time outstanding, the applicable Issuing Bank may (except to the extent the Commitments have been fully reallocated pursuant to Section 2.20), by notice to Pride and such Defaulting Lender through the Administrative Agent, require the Borrowers to provide Cash Collateral to such Issuing Bank in amount equal to the aggregate amount of the unreallocated obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit, or to make other arrangements satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank, in its sole discretion, to protect it against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender of amounts in respect of such Letter of Credit.

Section 2.20 Reallocation of Defaulting Lender Commitment, Etc. If a Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, the following provisions shall apply with respect to such Defaulting Lender:

(a) the Letter of Credit Liabilities of such Defaulting Lender will, subject to the limitation in the proviso below, automatically be reallocated (effective on the day such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender) among the Non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments; provided that (i) each Non-Defaulting Lender’s total Revolving Credit Exposure may not in any event exceed the Commitment of such Non-Defaulting Lender as in effect at the time of such reallocation, (ii) such Letter of Credit Liabilities shall not be automatically reallocated at any time when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (iii) neither such reallocation nor any payment by a Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant thereto will constitute a waiver or release of any claim the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender or cause such Defaulting Lender to be a Non-Defaulting Lender;

(b) to the extent that any portion (the “Unreallocated Portion”) of the Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Liabilities cannot be so reallocated by reason of the proviso to Section 2.20(a) above, Pride will, not later than three Business Days after demand by the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the applicable Issuing Bank), (i) Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Borrowers to the applicable Issuing Bank in respect of such Letter of Credit Liabilities in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the Unreallocated Portion of such Letter of Credit Liabilities, or (ii) make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and to the applicable Issuing Bank, in their sole discretion, to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender; and

(c) any amount paid by any Borrower for the account of a Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity payments or other amounts) will be applied by the Administrative Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to the making of payments from time to time in the following order of priority: first to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, second to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Banks under this Agreement, ratably among them in accordance with such amounts owed, third to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to Non-Defaulting Lenders under this Agreement, ratably among them in accordance with such amounts owed, and fourth, to pay amounts owing under this Agreement to such Defaulting Lender or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct; provided that, with respect to any application pursuant to this Section 2.20(c) of amounts received from BVI Borrower, such amounts shall be applied only on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity payments or other amounts owed by BVI Borrower; and provided further that, upon making any payment to the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank for the account of a Defaulting Lender, the applicable Borrower’s obligation to pay such amount to such Defaulting Lender shall be fully discharged and such Defaulting Lender shall have no recourse to any Credit Party for the payment of such amount.

Section 2.21 Right to Give Drawdown Notices. In furtherance of the foregoing, if any Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender each Issuing Bank is hereby authorized by each Borrower (which authorization is irrevocable and coupled with an interest) to give, in its discretion, through the Administrative Agent, Notices of Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.02 in such amounts and at such times as may be required to (a) reimburse an outstanding disbursement made with respect to a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank on behalf of such Borrower that has not been reimbursed by such Borrower upon demand pursuant to Section 2.19(c) or (b) Cash Collateralize the obligations of such Borrower in respect of outstanding Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank on behalf of such Borrower in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender in respect of such Letters of Credit (after giving effect to any reallocation under Section 2.20(a)) if and to the extent the obligation to provide Cash Collateral under Section 2.20(b) has not been satisfied.

Section 2.22 Termination of Defaulting Lender Commitment. Pride may terminate the unused amount of the Commitment of a Defaulting Lender upon not less than three Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which will promptly notify the Lenders thereof), and in such event the provisions of Section 2.20(c) will apply to all amounts thereafter paid by any Borrower for the account of such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity or other amounts), provided that such termination will not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender.

Section 6.02 L/C Cash Collateral Accounts. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default (if the Administrative Agent has declared all amounts owed by the Borrowers hereunder to be due and payable), each Borrower agrees that it shall forthwith, without any demand or the taking of any other action by the Issuing Banks, the Administrative Agent, or any of the Lenders, provide cover for the outstanding Letter of Credit Liabilities in respect of all Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower by paying to the Administrative Agent immediately available funds in the amount equal to the then aggregate Letter of Credit Liabilities of all such outstanding Letters of Credit, which funds shall be deposited into a blocked deposit account or accounts to be established and maintained at the office of one or more of the Issuing Banks (or affiliates thereof) in the name of the Administrative Agent as collateral security for all Letter of Credit Liabilities relating to Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower (each, an “L/C Cash Collateral Account”). Each Borrower hereby pledges, and grants to the Administrative Agent for the

ratable benefit of the Lenders, a first priority security interest in all funds held in its L/C Cash Collateral Account from time to time and all proceeds thereof, as security for the payment of all Obligations of such Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall have sole control over each L/C Cash Collateral Account and shall from time to time withdraw funds then held in such L/C Cash Collateral Account to satisfy the payment of the applicable Obligations as shall have become or shall become due and payable under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any funds held in each L/C Cash Collateral Account and shall be deemed to have exercised such care if such funds are accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Administrative Agent accords its own property, it being understood that the Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any such funds or for investing such funds.

Section 6.03 Application of Amounts Received Following the Occurrence of an Event of Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, any amounts received by the Administrative Agent from any Borrower or from a Guarantor in connection with its guaranty of the Obligations, shall be applied to the Obligations in the following order of priority:

(ii) second, to the payment of any and all out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Issuing Banks and the Lenders, as provided by this Agreement or by any other Credit Document, incurred in connection with the collection of such payment or in respect of the enforcement of any rights of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks under this Agreement or any other Credit Document, pro rata in the proportion in which the amount of such costs and expenses unpaid to each Lender and Issuing Bank bears to the aggregate amount of the costs and expenses unpaid to all Lenders and Issuing Banks collectively, until all such fees, costs and expenses have been paid in full;

(iii) third, to the payment of any due and unpaid fees to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any Issuing Bank as provided by this Agreement or any other Credit Document, pro rata in the proportion in which the amount of such fees due and unpaid to the Administrative Agent and each Lender and Issuing Bank bears to the aggregate amount of the fees due and unpaid to the Administrative Agent and all Lenders and Issuing Banks collectively, until all such fees have been paid in full;

(iv) fourth, to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest on the Advances and Demand Loans to the date of such application, pro rata in the proportion in which the amount of such interest, accrued and unpaid to each Lender or the applicable Issuing Banks bears to the aggregate amount of such interest accrued and unpaid to all Lenders and such Issuing Banks collectively, until all such accrued and unpaid interest has been paid in full;

(v) fifth, (a) to the payment of principal on all Advances and Demand Loans pro rata in the proportion in which the amount of such principal due each Lender or the applicable Issuing Banks bears to the aggregate amount of such principal due to all Lenders and such Issuing Banks collectively, until all such principal has been paid in full, and (b) to the extent any Letters of Credit have not been fully cash collateralized pursuant to Section 6.02 hereof, to the cash collateralization of such Letters of Credit. With respect to Obligations that are not then payable, any amount reserved pursuant to this Section 6.03 shall be deposited in a Collateral Account until such time or times as such Obligations become payable, or the obligees under such Obligations notify the Administrative Agent that there are no remaining liabilities under such Obligations; and after such payment or notice, any surplus reserved amount, to the extent not applied to such Obligations, shall be available for distribution in accordance with the priority established in this Section 6.03; and

(vi) sixth; to the payment of any other outstanding Obligations then due and payable, pro rata in the proportion in which the outstanding Obligations owing to each Lender, Issuing Bank and Administrative Agent bears to the aggregate amount of all such Obligations until all such Obligations have been paid in full; and

(vii) seventh, any surplus of such amounts remaining after payment in full in cash of all the Obligations and the termination or cash collateralization of all Letters of Credit and the termination of all Commitments, shall be paid over to Pride, or whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus, in a commercially reasonable time, provided that none of the Lender Parties shall be liable for any interest, cost or expense in connection with any delay in delivering such proceeds to the Pride or other Person;

provided that, with respect to any application pursuant to this Section 6.03 of amounts received from BVI Borrower, (I) such amounts shall be applied in the foregoing order of priority, but without giving effect to clauses (i) through (iii), and (II) in applying such amounts pursuant to clauses (iv) through (vi), such amounts shall be applied only to (x) in the case of clause (iv), the payment of accrued and unpaid interest on Advances and Demand Loans made to BVI Borrower, (y) in the case of clause (v), the payment of principal on Advances and Demand Loans made to BVI Borrower or the cash collateralization of Letters of Credit issued for the account of BVI Borrower and (z) in the case of clause (vi), the payment of Obligations of BVI Borrower.

ARTICLE VII
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE ISSUING BANKS

Section 7.01 Authorization and Action. Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Credit Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent, by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Credit Documents (including enforcement or collection of the Notes), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Majority Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of Notes; provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to any Credit Document or applicable law and shall not be required to initiate or conduct any litigation or other proceedings. The Administrative Agent agrees to give to each Lender prompt notice of each notice given to it by the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The provisions of this Article VII are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties, and neither the Borrowers nor any other Credit Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

Section 7.02 Administrative Agent’s Reliance, Etc. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with any Credit Document, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The duties of the Administrative Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature; the Administrative Agent shall not have, by reason of this Agreement or any other Credit Document a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender or the holder of any Note; and nothing in this Agreement or any other Credit Document, expressed or implied, is intended or shall be so construed as to impose upon the Administrative Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any other Credit Document except as expressly set forth herein. Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: (i) may treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until the Administrative Agent receives and accepts a Transfer Agreement entered into by the Lender that is the payee of such Note, as assignor, and an Eligible Assignee, as assignee, as provided in Section 8.06; (ii) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for any Credit Party), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (iii) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with any Credit Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or in connection herewith; (iv) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of any Credit Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or in connection herewith on the part of the Borrowers or any other Person or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of the Borrowers or any other Person; (v) shall not be responsible for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of any Credit Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or in connection herewith or for the perfection, existence, sufficiency or value of any collateral, any guaranty or any insurance; and (vi) shall incur no liability under or in respect of any Credit Document, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telecopier, telegram, cable or telex) believed by it to be genuine and signed, given or sent by

the proper party or parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, insofar as the Administrative Agent is concerned, with respect to any Advance, each Lender shall be deemed to have consented to, approved and be satisfied with each matter referred to in Article III, unless the officer of the Administrative Agent responsible for the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents shall have received written notice from such Lender prior to such Advance specifying its objection thereto and such Lender shall not have made available to the Administrative Agent any portion of such Advance; provided that this sentence is solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent (and not any Credit Party) and shall not amend, waive or otherwise modify Article III, Section 6.01(d) or any other provision applicable to any Credit Party, whether in respect of such Advance or any other Advance or matter.

Section 7.03 Administrative Agent and Its Affiliates. With respect to its Commitment, the Advances made by it and the Notes issued to it, each Lender which is also the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under the Credit Documents as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include any Lender serving as the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. Any Lender serving as the Administrative Agent and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, accept investment banking engagements from and generally engage in any kind of business with, Pride, any of Pride’s Subsidiaries and any Person who may do business with or own securities of Pride or any Subsidiary, all as if such Lender were not the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. In the event that Citibank, N.A. or any of its Affiliates shall be or become an indenture trustee under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (as amended, the “Trust Indenture Act”) in respect of any securities issued or guaranteed by any Credit Party, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that any payment or property received in satisfaction of or in respect of any Obligation of such Credit Party hereunder or under any other Credit Document by or on behalf of Citibank, N.A., in its capacity as the Administrative Agent for the benefit of any Lender Party under any Credit Document (other than Citibank, N.A. or an Affiliate of Citibank, N.A.) and which is applied in accordance with the Credit Documents shall be deemed to be exempt from the requirements of Section 311 of the Trust Indenture Act pursuant to Section 311(b)(3) of the Trust Indenture Act.

Section 7.04 Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01(e) and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender or the holder of any Note with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Advances or at any time or times thereafter. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall require the Administrative Agent to carry out any “know your customer” or other checks in relation to any person on behalf of any Lender Party and each Lender Party confirms to the Administrative Agent that it is solely responsible for any such checks it is required to carry out and that it may not rely on any statement in relation to such checks made by the Administrative Agent.

Section 7.05 Certain Rights of the Administrative Agent. If the Administrative Agent shall request instructions from the Majority Lenders with respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received instructions from the Majority Lenders; and it shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender nor the holder of any Note shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of its acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any other Credit Document in accordance with the instructions of the Majority Lenders or all of the Lenders, as the case may be. Furthermore, except for action expressly required of the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder unless it shall be specifically indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Credit Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. Each such sub-agent and the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and each such sub-agent shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article VII and Section 8.04 (as though such sub-agents were the “Administrative Agent” under the Credit Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.

Section 7.06 Holders. Any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is the holder of any Note shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, transferee, assignee or endorsee, as the case may be, of such Note or of any Note or Notes issued in exchange therefor.

Section 7.07 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers), ratably according to the respective principal amounts of the Advances then held by each of them (or if no principal of the Advances is at the time outstanding, ratably according to the respective amounts of their Commitments then existing, or, if no such principal amounts are then outstanding and no Commitments are then existing, ratably according to the respective amounts of the Commitments existing immediately prior to the termination thereof), from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of any of the Credit Documents or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under the Credit Documents (expressly including any such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense attributable to the ordinary, sole or contributory negligence of the administrative agent, but excluding any such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense attributable to the gross negligence or

willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent). it is the intent of the parties hereto that the Administrative Agent shall, to the extent provided in this section 7.07, be indemnified for its own ordinary, sole or contributory negligence. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for such Lender’s ratable share of any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, the Credit Documents, or any of them, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrowers.

Section 7.08 Resignation by the Administrative Agent. (a) The Administrative Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Credit Documents at any time by giving 15 Business Days’ prior written notice to Pride and the Lenders. Such resignation shall take effect upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) below or as otherwise provided below.

(b) Upon any such notice of resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a commercial bank or trust company that is, if no Event of Default exists, reasonably acceptable to Pride.

Section 7.11 Issuing Banks and Their Affiliates. With respect to its Commitment, the Advances made by it and the Notes issued to it, each Lender which is also an Issuing Bank shall have the same rights and powers under the Credit Documents as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Issuing Bank; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include any Lender serving as an Issuing Bank in its individual capacity. Any Lender serving as an Issuing Bank and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, accept investment banking engagements from and generally engage in any kind of business with, Pride, any of its Subsidiaries and any Person who may do business with or own securities of Pride or any of its Subsidiaries, all as if such Lender were not an Issuing Bank and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

Section 7.12 No Other Duties, etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Persons acting as bookrunners, arrangers, syndication agents or documentation agents listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent or as a Lender Party hereunder.

Section 7.13 Cure of Defaulting Lender.

Section 7.14 Removal of Administrative Agent. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if at any time the Majority Lenders determine that the Person serving as Administrative Agent is (without taking into account any provision in the definition of “Defaulting Lender” requiring notice from the Administrative Agent or any other party) a Defaulting Lender the Majority Lenders may by notice to Pride and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with Pride, appoint a replacement Administrative Agent hereunder. Such removal will be effective on the date a replacement Administrative Agent is appointed.

The Borrowers hereby agree that they will provide to the Administrative Agent all information, documents and other materials that they are obligated to furnish to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Credit Documents, including all notices, requests, financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials, but excluding any such communication that (i) relates to a request for a new Advance, or a Conversion or continuation of an existing Advance, a new Letter of Credit, any increase or extension of any Letter of Credit or other extension of credit (including any election of an interest rate or Interest Period relating thereto), (ii) relates to the payment of any principal or other amount due under this Agreement prior to the scheduled date therefor, (iii) provides notice of any Default or Event of Default or (iv) is required to be delivered to satisfy any condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement and/or any Advance, Letter of Credit, increase or extension of any Letter of Credit or other extension of credit hereunder (all such non-excluded communications being referred to herein collectively as “Communications”), by transmitting the Communications in an electronic/soft medium in a format acceptable to the Agent to ***@***. In addition, the Credit Parties agree to continue to provide the Communications to the Administrative Agent in the manner specified in the Credit Documents, but only to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent.

The Credit Parties further agree that the Administrative Agent may make the Communications available to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks by posting the Communications on Intralinks, Fixed Income Direct or a substantially similar electronic transmission systems (the “Platform”). The Credit Parties acknowledge that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution.

THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE AGENT PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES OR ANY OF ITS OR ITS AFFILIATE’S OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, ADVISORS OR REPRESENTATIVES (COLLECTIVELY, “AGENT PARTIES”) HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LENDER PARTY, ANY CREDIT PARTY OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF THE TRANSMISSION BY ANY CREDIT PARTY, ANY OF THE AGENT PARTIES OR ANY OTHER PERSON OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THE LIABILITY OF ANY AGENT PARTY IS FOUND IN A FINAL NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED PRIMARILY FROM SUCH AGENT PARTY’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.

The Administrative Agent agrees that the receipt of the Communications by the Administrative Agent at its email address set forth above during its normal business hours shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Credit Documents. Each Lender Party agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that the Communications have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Credit Documents. Each Lender Party agrees (i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender Party’s email address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such email address.

Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Credit Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders or any Lender to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Credit Document in any other manner specified in such Credit Document.

Section 8.03 No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Lender, the Issuing Banks or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right under any Credit Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies provided in the Credit Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

Section 8.04 Costs, Expenses and Indemnity. (a) Pride agrees to pay, upon demand by the Administrative Agent, (i) all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers or any of their affiliates in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification and amendment of the Credit Documents and the other documents to be delivered under the Credit Documents, due diligence in connection with the Credit Documents and syndication of the credit facilities contemplated herein, including the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of counsel for the Administrative Agent with respect to preparation, execution and delivery of the Credit Documents and the satisfaction of the matters referred to in Section 3.01, and the reasonable costs and expenses of the Issuing Banks in connection with any Letter of Credit, and (ii) all legal and other costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and each Lender incurred during the existence of an Event of Default in connection with the enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of the Credit Documents and the other documents to be delivered under the Credit Documents or incurred in connection with any workout, restructuring or bankruptcy.

(b) If any payment of principal of, or Conversion of, any LIBOR Advance is made by any Borrower other than on the last day of an Interest Period relating to such Advance, as a result of a payment, Conversion, acceleration of the maturity of such Borrower’s Note, or for any other reason, such Borrower shall, upon demand by any Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses which it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment, Conversion, acceleration, or other reason, including any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain such Advance.

(c) Pride hereby indemnifies and holds harmless each Lender Party and each of their respective directors, officers, employees and attorneys (collectively, “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses relating to Environmental matters) (collectively, “Losses”) for which any of them may become liable or which may be incurred by or asserted against an Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of, related to or in connection with (i) any transaction in which any proceeds of all or any part of the Advances are applied, (ii) breach by Pride or any Subsidiary of any Credit

Document, (iii) violation by Pride or any Subsidiary of any Environmental Law or any other law, rule, regulation or order, or (iv) any investigation, litigation, or proceeding, whether or not any Indemnified Party is a party thereto, related to or in connection with any of the foregoing or any Credit Document (expressly including any such losses attributable to the ordinary, sole or contributory negligence of such Indemnified Party, but excluding any such losses attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party as determined pursuant to a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). It is the intent of the parties hereto that each Indemnified Party shall, to the extent provided in this Section 8.04(c), be indemnified for its own ordinary, sole or contributory negligence. The Administrative Agent will provide Pride prompt notice of any matter (other than matters solely among Indemnified Parties) as to which indemnification pursuant to this Section 8.04(c) is claimed. Any Indemnified Party that proposes to settle or compromise any such indemnified claim shall give Pride written notice of the terms of such proposed settlement or compromise reasonably in advance of settling or compromising such claim or proceeding.

(d) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrowers contained in this Section 8.04 shall survive the payment in full of all Obligations.

Section 8.05 Right of Set-Off. Upon (a) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and (b) either (i) the Advances having become due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof, or (ii) the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.01 to authorize the Administrative Agent to declare the Advances due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of any Credit Party against any and all of the obligations of such Credit Party now or hereafter existing under any Credit Document, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under any Credit Document and although such obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify such Credit Party after any such set-off and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) which such Lender may have.

Section 8.06 Assignments and Participations. (a) Each Lender may, in accordance with applicable law, assign to one or more Lenders or other entities all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment, the Advances owing to it and the Notes held by it); provided that (i) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of its Commitment and Advances (including the Letter of Credit Liabilities held by the assigning Lender pursuant to Section 2.19), (ii) except in the case of an assignment of all of a Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement or an assignment to another Lender, the Commitment or the Dollar Equivalent amount of the Advances of the assigning Lender being assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as of the date of the

Transfer Agreement with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than $5,000,000 and shall be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 (or if the Advances being assigned are denominated in Euros, the smallest amount of Euros that has a Dollar Equivalent equal to or in excess of $1,000,000), (iii) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee, and (iv) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for acceptance by the Administrative Agent and recording by the Administrative Agent in the Register, a Transfer Agreement, together with any Notes then held by such assigning Lender (to the extent such assigning Lender is assigning all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement) and a processing and recordation fee of $2,000 payable by the assignee. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in each Transfer Agreement, (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Transfer Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder, (y) the Lender assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Transfer Agreement, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of a Transfer Agreement covering all of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto except that the rights under Sections 2.06, 2.10, 2.13 and 8.04 of such Lender shall continue with respect to events and occurrences occurring before or concurrently with its ceasing to be a party hereto), and (z) unless Pride consents to such assignment, no such assignee shall be entitled to receive any greater payment pursuant to Sections 2.06, 2.10 and 2.13 than the assigning Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the rights assigned to such assignee, except as a result of circumstances arising after, and that could not reasonably be expected at, the date of such assignment.

(b) By executing and delivering a Transfer Agreement, the Lender assignor thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Transfer Agreement, and other than that the assignor is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned and that the assigned interest is free and clear of any adverse claim, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with any Credit Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or in connection herewith, the perfection, existence, sufficiency or value of any collateral, guaranty or insurance or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of any Credit Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or in connection herewith; (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of the Borrowers or any other Person or the performance or observance by the Borrowers or any other Person of any of its respective obligations under any Credit Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or in connection herewith; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01(e) and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Transfer Agreement; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 8.02 a copy of each Transfer Agreement delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment and the principal amount of the Advances owing to each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Upon its receipt of a Transfer Agreement executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee representing that it is an Eligible Assignee, together with any Notes then held by such assigning Lender (to the extent such assigning Lender is assigning all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement), the Administrative Agent shall, if such Transfer Agreement has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit F, (i) accept such Transfer Agreement, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to Pride.

(e) Each Lender, in accordance with applicable law, may sell participations to one or more Lenders or other entities (other than Pride or any of its Affiliates) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of any of its Commitments, the Advances owing to it and the Notes held by it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including its Commitment to the Borrowers hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Notes for all purposes of this Agreement, (iv) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such

Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, (v) the terms of any such participation shall not restrict such Lender’s ability to make any amendment or waiver of any Credit Document or such Lender’s ability to consent to any departure by the Borrowers therefrom without the approval of the participant, except that the approval of the participant may be required to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, or postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, (vi) unless Pride otherwise consents, no such participant shall be entitled to receive any greater payment pursuant to Sections 2.06, 2.10 and 2.13 than such Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the rights assigned to such participant by such Lender, and (vii) such Lender shall give prompt written notice of such participation to Pride and the Administrative Agent.

(f) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including the Advances owing to it and the Notes held by it) in favor of any central bank or any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Board.

Section 8.08 Interest. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, each Lender and each other Lender Party shall conform strictly to usury laws applicable to it, if any. Accordingly, if the transactions with any Lender Party contemplated hereby would be usurious under applicable law, if any, then, in that event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Credit Document, it is agreed as follows: (a) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under applicable law that is contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received by any Lender Party under any Credit Document shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law and any excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if theretofore paid, shall at the option of the such Lender Party, be applied on the principal amount of the obligations owed to such Lender Party by the paying Borrower or refunded by such Lender Party to the paying Borrower, and (b) in the event that the maturity of any Note or other obligation payable to any Lender Party is accelerated or in the event of any permitted prepayment, then such consideration that constitutes interest under law applicable to such Lender Party may never include more than the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law and excess interest, if any, to such Lender Party provided for in any Credit Document or otherwise shall be cancelled automatically as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall, at the option of such Lender Party be credited by such Lender Party on the principal amount of the obligations owed to it by the paying Borrower or refunded by such Lender Party to the paying Borrower.

Section 8.09 Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed:

(a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective managers, administrators, trustees, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential);

(b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners);

(c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process;

(d) to any other party hereto;

(e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Credit Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder;

(f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 8.09, (i) to any assignee of, or participant in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (ii) in the case of any Lender, to any actual or prospective counterparty to any swap, derivative or other transaction to which such Lender is or is proposed to be a party under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrowers and their obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder (but only to the extent such counterparty is a commercial bank, financial institution or is otherwise reasonably acceptable to Pride), or (iii) to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar organization;

(g) with the consent of Pride; or

(h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 8.09 or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Pride or its Affiliates, excluding any Information from a source which, to the actual knowledge of the Lender Party receiving such Information, has been disclosed by such source in violation of a duty of confidentiality to Pride or any of its Affiliates.

For purposes of this Section 8.09, “Information” means all information received from Pride or any of its Affiliates (including SPV’s) relating to Pride or any of its Affiliates (including SPV’s) or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by Pride or any of its Affiliates (including SPV’s), excluding any Information from a source which, to the actual knowledge of the Lender Party receiving such Information, has been disclosed by such source in violation of a duty of confidentiality to Pride or any of its Affiliates. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 8.09 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Lender Parties contained in this Section 8.09 shall survive the payment in full of all Obligations.

Section 8.10 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Section 8.11 Domicile of Loans. Subject to Section 2.10(c) and 2.13(f), each Lender may transfer and carry its loans at, to or for the account of any office, Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Lender provided that no Lender shall be relieved of its obligations as a result thereof.

Section 8.12 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Borrowers, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have, as to each Lender, either received a copy of a signature page hereof executed by such Lender or been notified by such Lender that such Lender has executed it and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and each Lender and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrowers shall not have the right to assign their respective rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of each Lender.

Section 8.13 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE BORROWERS, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING BANKS AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OF THE NOTES, ANY LETTER OF CREDIT, ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

Section 8.14 Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

Section 8.15 FORUM SELECTION AND CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. THE BORROWERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMIT TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK (OR THE STATE COURTS SITTING IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN THE EVENT THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK LACKS SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION), AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER, OR ANY ISSUING BANK ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY OF THE CREDIT DOCUMENTS, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT. EACH BORROWER HEREBY AGREES THAT A FINAL NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. EACH BORROWER AGREES THAT ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY PRIDE OR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER, ANY ISSUING BANK, OR THEIR AFFILIATES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY OF THE CREDIT DOCUMENTS SHALL BE BROUGHT EXCLUSIVELY IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK (OR THE STATE COURTS SITTING IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN THE EVENT THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK LACKS SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION), AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER OR ANY ISSUING BANK MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT AGAINST ANY CREDIT PARTY OR ITS PROPERTIES IN ANY COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION, INCLUDING THE JURISDICTIONS OF INCORPORATION OF ANY CREDIT PARTY NOT INCORPORATED IN THE UNITED STATES.

THE BORROWERS IRREVOCABLY CONSENT TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS BY REGISTERED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, OR BY PERSONAL SERVICE WITHIN OR WITHOUT THE STATE OF NEW YORK AT THE ADDRESS FOR NOTICES SPECIFIED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 8.02. EACH OF THE BORROWERS HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY HAVE OR HEREAFTER MAY HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUCH LITIGATION BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT REFERRED TO ABOVE AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH LITIGATION HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY OF THE BORROWERS HAS OR HEREAFTER MAY ACQUIRE ANY IMMUNITY FROM JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT OR FROM ANY LEGAL PROCESS (WHETHER THROUGH SERVICE OR NOTICE, ATTACHMENT PRIOR TO JUDGMENT, ATTACHMENT IN AID OF EXECUTION OR OTHERWISE) WITH RESPECT TO ITSELF OR ITS PROPERTY, SUCH BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW SUCH IMMUNITY IN RESPECT OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE CREDIT DOCUMENTS.

Section 8.16 DAMAGES. EACH OF THE BORROWERS, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING BANKS AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY EFFECTIVELY DO SO UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING REFERRED TO IN SECTION 8.15 ANY EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES; PROVIDED THAT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL CONSTITUTE A WAIVER BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING BANKS OR ANY OTHER LENDER OF ANY RIGHT TO RECEIVE FULL PAYMENT OF ALL OBLIGATIONS.

Section 8.17 Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers, which information includes the name and address of the Borrowers and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrowers in accordance with the Patriot Act. Pride shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates to, provide, to the extent commercially reasonable, such information and take such actions as are reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in order to assist the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in maintaining compliance with the Patriot Act.

Section 8.18 Survival of Agreements, Representations and Warranties, Etc. All warranties, representations and covenants made in or in connection with any Credit Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Lender Parties and shall survive the issuance of any Letters of Credit and the issuance and delivery of the Notes and the making of Advances regardless of any investigation. In addition, the confidentiality provisions contained in Section 8.09 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 8.19 Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Credit Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of each Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under the other Credit Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders from the Borrowers in the Agreement Currency, Pride agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or the Person to whom such obligation was owing against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in such currency, the Administrative Agent agrees to return the amount of any excess to Pride (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).

Section 8.20 Currency Conversion. All payments of Obligations under this Agreement, the Notes or any other Credit Document shall be made in U.S. Dollars, except for Advances funded, or Letter of Credit Liabilities with respect to Letters of Credit issued, in Euros, which shall be repaid, including interest thereon, in Euros. If any payment of any Obligation, whether through payment by any Credit Party or the proceeds of any collateral, shall be made in a currency other than the currency required hereunder, such amount shall be converted into the currency required hereunder at the rate determined by the Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank, as applicable, as the rate quoted by it in accordance with methods customarily used by such Person for such or similar purposes as the spot rate for the purchase by such Person of the required currency with the currency of actual payment through its principal foreign exchange trading office at approximately 11:00 A.M. (local time at such office) on the effective date of such conversion, provided that the Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank, as applicable, may obtain such spot rate from another financial institution actively engaged in foreign currency exchange if the Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank, as applicable, does not then have a spot rate for the required currency

Section 8.21 Determination and Notice of Exchange Rates. On each Calculation Date (x) the Administrative Agent shall, not later than 4:00 P.M. (London time), determine the Exchange Rate (other than any Issuing Bank Exchange Rate, if applicable) as of such Calculation Date and give notice thereof, together with notice of any applicable Issuing Bank Exchange Rate, to the Lenders and Pride and (y) if any Euro-denominated Letter of Credit Liabilities are outstanding on such date, each applicable Issuing Bank shall, not later than 2:00 P.M. (London time), determine the Exchange Rate as of such Calculation Date for all such Letter of Credit Liabilities outstanding as of such date with respect to all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank or its affiliates (the “Issuing Bank Exchange Rate”) and give prompt notice thereof to the Administrative Agent. The Exchange Rates so determined shall become effective on the first Business Day immediately following the relevant Calculation Date (a “Reset Date”), shall remain effective until the next succeeding Reset Date, and shall for all purposes of this Agreement (other than Section 8.20 or any other provision expressly requiring the use of a current exchange rate) be the Exchange Rates employed in determining the Dollar Equivalent of the applicable amount of Euros. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if any Issuing Bank fails to timely deliver notice of its Issuing Bank Exchange Rate to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8.21, the Administrative Agent may determine such rate in accordance with the definition of Exchange Rate and shall have no liability to such Issuing Bank for such determination. Not later than 2:00 P.M. (London time) on each Reset Date, the Administrative Agent shall determine the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amounts of the Advances and Letter of Credit Liabilities denominated in Euros (after giving effect to any Advances and/or Letters of Credit denominated in Euros being made, issued, repaid, or cancelled or reduced on such date), notify the Lenders and Pride of the results of such determination.

Section 8.22 Substitution of Currency. If a change in the lawful currency of the European Economic and Monetary Union occurs pursuant to any applicable law, rule or regulation of any governmental, monetary or multi-national authority, this Agreement (including, without limitation, the definition of LIBO Rate) will be amended to the extent determined by the Administrative Agent (acting reasonably, in consultation with the Borrower and in accordance with the terms of Section 8.01 hereof) to be necessary to reflect the change in such currency and to put the Lenders and the Borrowers in the same position, so far as possible, that they would have been in if no such change had occurred.

ARTICLE IX
GUARANTY

Section 9.01 Guaranty. Pride hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all BVI Borrower Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Pride’s liability shall extend to all amounts which constitute part of the BVI Borrower Obligations even if such BVI Borrower Obligations are declared unenforceable or not allowable in a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving BVI Borrower, any other Credit Party or any other Person. The foregoing guaranty is a guaranty of payment, not of collection, and Pride is primarily liable for the payment of the BVI Borrower Obligations. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party have any obligation (although each such Person is entitled, at its option) to proceed against BVI Borrower or any collateral pledged to secure the BVI Borrower Obligations before seeking satisfaction from Pride of the BVI Borrower Obligations.

Section 9.02 Limit of Liability. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, Pride’s liability under the Guaranty provided in this Article IX shall be limited to an amount not to exceed as of any date of determination the greater of:

(a) the aggregate amount of all BVI Borrower Obligations outstanding on such date; or

(b) the amount which could be claimed by the Lender Parties from Pride under the Guaranty provided in this Article IX without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law after taking into account, among other things, any right to contribution or indemnification or any other right Pride may have.

Section 9.03 Guaranty Absolute. Pride unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees that the BVI Borrower Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the Credit Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any BVI Borrower Obligations or the rights of any Person with respect thereto. The obligations of Pride hereunder are independent of the obligations of any other Person in respect the BVI Borrower Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against any Person regardless of whether any other Person is joined in any such action or actions. The liability of Pride in respect of the Guaranty provided in this Article IX shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

(a) the lack of validity or unenforceability of any of the BVI Borrower Obligations or any Credit Document for any reason whatsoever, including that the act of creating any of the BVI Borrower Obligations is ultra vires, that the officers or representatives executing the documents creating the BVI Borrower Obligations exceeded their authority, that the BVI Borrower Obligations violate usury or other laws, or that any Credit Party has defenses to the payment of the BVI Borrower Obligations, including breach of warranty, statute of frauds, bankruptcy, statute of limitations, lender liability, or accord and satisfaction;

(b) any change in the time, manner, or place of payment of, or in any term of, any of the BVI Borrower Obligations, any increase, reduction, extension, or rearrangement of the BVI Borrower Obligations, any amendment, supplement, or other modification of the Credit Documents, or any waiver or consent granted under the Credit Documents;

(c) any release, exchange, subordination, waste, or other impairment (including negligent, willful, unreasonable, or unjustifiable impairment) of any collateral securing payment of the BVI Borrower Obligations; the failure of any other Person to exercise diligence or reasonable care in the preservation, protection, enforcement, sale, or other handling of any such collateral; or the fact that any Lien related to any collateral for the BVI Borrower Obligations shall not be properly perfected, or shall prove to be unenforceable or subordinate to any other Lien;

(d) any full or partial release of any Credit Party (other than a full release of BVI Borrower, together with satisfaction of the conditions in Section 9.08 with respect to terminating the Guaranty provided in this Article IX) or any collateral;

(e) the failure to apply or the manner of applying any collateral or payments of the proceeds of any collateral against the BVI Borrower Obligations;

(f) any change in the organization or structure of any Credit Party; any change in the shareholders, directors, or officers of any Credit Party; or the insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, or dissolution of any Credit Party or any defense that may arise in connection with or as a result of any such insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or dissolution;

(g) the failure to give notice of any extension of credit made to BVI Borrower under any Credit Document, notice of acceptance of the Guaranty set forth in this Article IX, notice of any amendment, supplement, or other modification of any Credit Document, notice of the execution of any document or agreement creating any BVI Borrower Obligations, notice of any default or event of default, however denominated, under the Credit Documents, notice of intent to demand, notice of demand, notice of presentment for payment, notice of nonpayment, notice of intent to protest, notice of protest, notice of grace, notice of dishonor, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, notice of bringing of suit, notice of any transfer of any of the BVI Borrower Obligations, notice of the financial condition of or other circumstances regarding any Credit Party, or any other notice of any kind relating to any of the BVI Borrower Obligations;

(h) any payment or grant of collateral by any Credit Party to any Person being held to constitute a preference, fraudulent obligation or fraudulent transfer under bankruptcy laws, or for any reason any Person is required to refund such payment or release such collateral;

(i) any other action taken or omitted which affects the BVI Borrower Obligations, whether or not such action or omission prejudices Pride or increases the likelihood that Pride will be required to pay the BVI Borrower Obligations pursuant to the terms hereof;

(j) the fact that all or any of the BVI Borrower Obligations cease to exist by operation of law (other than as a result of the payment in full in cash of any or all of the BVI Borrower Obligations), including by way of discharge, limitation or tolling thereof under applicable bankruptcy laws; or

(k) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, a guarantor (other than the payment in full in cash of the BVI Borrower Obligations).

Section 9.04 Waiver of Notice and Other Remedies. Pride hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance, notice of acceleration, notice of intent to accelerate, and any other notice with respect to any of the BVI Borrower Obligations and the guaranty set forth herein and any requirement that any Person protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or other Lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right to take any action against any Credit Party or any other Person or any collateral. Pride agrees that its obligations under the Guaranty provided in this Article IX shall not be subject to any counterclaims, offsets or defenses against any Lender Party of any kind. There are no conditions precedent to the enforcement of the Guaranty provided in this Article IX. No Lender Party shall be required to mitigate damages or take any other action to reduce, collect, or enforce any of the BVI Borrower Obligations.

Section 9.05 Deferral of Subrogation, Etc. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Credit Document, until such time as the Obligations are irrevocably paid in full and all Letters of Credit and Commitments are terminated, Pride hereby expressly and irrevocably waives, on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns (including any surety), any and all rights at law or in equity to subrogation, to reimbursement, to exoneration, to contribution, to indemnification, to set off or to any other rights that could accrue to a surety against a principal, to a guarantor against a principal, to a guarantor against a maker or obligor, to an accommodation party against the party accommodated, to a holder or transferee against a maker, or to the holder of any claim against any Person, and which Pride may have or hereafter acquire in connection with or as a result of its execution, delivery and/or performance of this Agreement, or any other documents to which Pride is a party or otherwise.

If any amount shall be paid to Pride in violation of this Section 9.05, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Lender Parties, and shall promptly be paid to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lender Parties to be applied to the BVI Borrower Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, as the Lender Parties may elect. Pride acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Credit Documents and that the waivers set forth in this Section 9.05 are knowingly made.

Section 9.06 Reinstatement. The Guaranty provided in this Article IX shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against any Credit Party for liquidation or reorganization, should any Credit Party become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of such Credit Party’s assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the BVI Borrower Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any Lender Party, whether as a “voidable preference”, “fraudulent conveyance”, or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment on account of the BVI Borrower Obligations, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the BVI Borrower Obligations shall be reinstated in the amount of such payment, or part thereof, that was rescinded, reduced, restored or returned. The provisions of this Section 9.06 shall survive payment in full of the BVI Borrower Obligations.

Section 9.07 Exercise of Remedies. The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, shall have the right to make demands, file suits and claims, engage in other proceedings and exercise any other rights or remedies available to collect amounts owed pursuant to the terms of this Article IX, and the Administrative Agent shall not need the consent of any other Lender Party or Person to do so.

Section 9.08 Continuing Guaranty; Assignments. The Guaranty set forth in this Article IX is a continuing guaranty and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the payment in full in cash of all of the BVI Borrower Obligations, the termination of all Letters of Credit issued for the account of BVI Borrower and the termination of the Commitments, (b) be binding upon Pride and its successors and assigns, and (c) inure to the benefit of each of the Lender Parties and their respective successors, transferees and permitted assigns.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized, as of the date first above written.
