113/4% SENIOR SECURED NOTES DUE 2015
     1. Interest. United Maritime Group, LLC, a Florida limited liability company, and United Maritime Group Finance Corp., a Delaware corporation (together, the “Issuers,” which term includes any successors under the Indenture (as defined below)), promise to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at 113/4% per annum from the Issue Date until maturity. The Issuers will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, commencing June 15, 2010. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the date of original issuance or, if interest has already been paid, from the date it was most recently paid. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. Interest on overdue principal and interest will accrue at a rate that is 2% higher than the then applicable interest rate on the Notes. The Issuers will make each interest payment to the Holders of record on the immediately preceding June 1 and December 1.
     [Until this Regulation S Temporary Global Note is exchanged for one or more Regulation S Permanent Global Notes, the Holder hereof shall not be entitled to receive payments of interest hereon; until so exchanged in full, this Regulation S Temporary Global Note shall in all other respects be entitled to the same benefits as other Notes under the Indenture.]1
     2. Method of Payment. The Issuers shall pay interest on the Notes to the Persons who are registered Holders at the close of business on the Record Date immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date (whether or not a Business Day) even if the Notes are cancelled on registration of transfer or registration of exchange after such Record Date, and on or before such Interest Payment Date. Holders must surrender Notes to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Issuers will pay principal and interest in U.S. Legal Tender. All other payments on the Notes will be made at the office or agency of the Paying Agent and Registrar unless the Issuers elect to make interest payments by check mailed to the registered Holders at their address set forth in the register of Holders.
     3. Paying Agent and Registrar. Initially, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the "Trustee”) will act as a Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuers may change the Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to the Holders. The Trustee will initially act as Collateral Agent and Security Trustee with respect to the Notes. The Issuers or any of their Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.
     4. Indenture. The Notes and the Note Guarantees were issued under an Indenture, dated as of December 22, 2009, among the Issuers, the Guarantors named therein, the Trustee, the Security Trustee and the Collateral Agent (the “Indenture”). The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by express reference to the TIA, as amended from time to time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders of Notes are referred to in the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of such terms. The Notes are senior secured obligations of the Issuers. Each Holder, by accepting a Note, agrees to be bound by all of the terms and provisions of the Indenture, as the same may be amended from time to time. Capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise defined herein.
     5. Optional Redemption.

     (i) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under the Indenture (including Additional Notes, if any) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption; and
     (ii) the redemption occurs within 90 days of the date of the closing of such Equity Offering.
          (b) The Notes may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at any time prior to December 15, 2012, at the option of the Issuers upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first-class mail to each Holder’s registered address, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest, if any, to but not including, the applicable Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders on the relevant Record Date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date).

Year   Percentage
2012
    105.875 %
2013 and thereafter
    100.000 %
          (d) Except pursuant to Sections 5(a)–(b), the Notes will not be redeemable at the Issuers’ option prior to December 15, 2012.
          (e) At least thirty (30) days but not more than sixty (60) days before a Redemption Date, the Company shall mail or cause to be mailed a notice of redemption by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, with a copy to the Trustee and any Paying Agent, provided, however, that a redemption notice may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the such notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture pursuant to Article Eight or Article Twelve of the Indenture, respectively. At the Issuers’ written request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Issuers’ name and at the Issuers’ expense. Failure to give notice of redemption, or any defect therein to any Holder selected for redemption shall not impair or affect the validity of the redemption of any other Note.
          (f) Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 5(e), Notes or portions thereof called for redemption shall become irrevocably due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the Redemption Price plus accrued interest and Special Interest, if any, to (but not including) the

A-5


 

Redemption Date. Upon surrender to the Trustee or Paying Agent, such Notes or portions thereof called for redemption shall be paid at the Redemption Price plus accrued interest and Special Interest, if any, thereon to (but not including) the Redemption Date, but installments of interest, the maturity of which is on or prior to the Redemption Date, shall be payable to Holders of record at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates referred to in the Notes. Notices of redemption may not be conditional.
          (g) If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee will select Notes for redemption:
     (i) in compliance with applicable law or with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, subject to the procedures of the Depository, on which such Notes are listed; or
     (ii) if such Notes are not then listed on a national securities exchange, subject to the procedures of the Depository, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such method as the Trustee may reasonably determine is fair and appropriate; provided that no partial redemption will reduce the principal amount of a Note not redeemed to less than $2,000; and provided further, that if a partial redemption is made with the proceeds of an Equity Offering then the Trustee shall select the Notes or portions thereof for redemption only on a pro rata basis or on as nearly a pro rata basis as is practicable (subject to the procedures of the Depository), unless such method is prohibited.
          (h) The Trustee shall make the selection from the Notes outstanding and not previously called for redemption and shall promptly notify the Issuers in writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption, the principal amount at maturity thereof, to be redeemed. Notes in denominations of $2,000 in principal amount at maturity may be redeemed only in whole. The Trustee may select for redemption portions (equal to $2,000 in principal amount at Stated Maturity or any integral multiple of $1,000 thereof) of the principal of Notes that have denominations larger than $2,000.
          (i) If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to that Note will state the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after the Redemption Date, and upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in the aggregate principal applicable amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof shall be issued.
     6. Offers to Purchase. Sections 4.10, 4.22 and 4.23 of the Indenture provide that (a) after certain Asset Sales, (b) upon the occurrence of a Change of Control and (c) in certain events in which the Company and its Subsidiaries have excess cash, and subject to further limitations contained therein, the Issuers will make an offer to purchase the Notes at the prices and in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture.
     7. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange. The Notes shall be issuable in fully registered form only, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 in principal amount and any integral multiple of $1,000 thereof. A Holder may transfer or exchange Notes in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture. The Registrar and Trustee may require a Holder or beneficial owner of an interest in a Global Note, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents in connection with a transfer of Notes or interest in a Global Note. Holders will be required to pay all taxes due on transfer. None of the Issuers, the Trustee or the Registrar shall be required (a) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Notes during a period of fifteen (15) days before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under Section 5 and ending at the close of business on the day of selection, (b) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Notes so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part or (c) to register the transfer of or to exchange a

A-6


 

Note between a Record Date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date.
     8. Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a Note shall be treated as the owner of such Note for all purposes. Only registered Holders shall have rights under the Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement and the Collateral Documents.
     9. Unclaimed Money. If money for the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest or Special Interest, if any, remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay the money without interest thereon back to the Issuers upon written request. After payment to the Issuers, Holders entitled to money must look solely to the Issuers for payment as general creditors unless an applicable abandoned property law designates another Person, and all liability of the Trustee and such Paying Agent with respect to such money shall cease.
     10. Discharge Prior to Redemption or Maturity. If the Issuers at any time deposit with the Trustee U.S. Legal Tender or Government Securities (or any combination thereof) sufficient to pay the principal of, interest on and Special Interest, if any, on the Notes to redemption or stated maturity and comply with the other provisions of the Indenture relating thereto, the Issuers shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes, except for the rights of Holders to receive payments in respect of the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on and Special Interest, if applicable, on the Notes when such payments are due from the deposits referred to above.
     11. Amendment; Supplement; Waiver. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees, the Intercreditor Agreement (subject to the additional consent of the parties thereto) may be amended or supplemented with authorization by a Board Resolution and the Trustee, the Security Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, together with written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes), and the Notes, the Guarantees and the Intercreditor Agreement (subject to the additional consent of the parties thereto) and any Collateral Document may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes). Without consent of any Holder, the Issuers, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend, modify, waive or supplement the Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees to, among other things (as provided in the Indenture), cure any ambiguity, mistake, defect or inconsistency, provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes, comply with the requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA, conform the text of the Indenture, the Note Guarantees, the Collateral Documents or the Notes to any provision of the “Description of Notes” set forth in the Offering Memorandum to the extent that such provision in the “Description of Notes” was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of the Indenture, the Note Guarantees, or the Notes, which intent may be evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate to that effect, to enter into additional or supplemental Collateral Documents, to release Collateral in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and the Collateral Documents or make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such holder.
     12. Defaults and Remedies. Events of Default are set forth in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations in the Indenture, if an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(i)–(j) of the Indenture occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all unpaid principal of, and premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest, if any, on all of the outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(i)–(j) of the Indenture occurs and is continuing and has not been waived, all unpaid principal of, and premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest and Special

A-7


 

Interest, if any, on all of the outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. Holders of Notes may not enforce the Indenture except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to the provisions of the Indenture relating to the duties of the Trustee, in case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under the Indenture at the request or direction of any Holders unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity or security against any loss, liability or expense. The Indenture permits, subject to certain limitations therein provided, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes to direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. Subject to the provisions of the Indenture relating to the duties of the Trustee, in case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that the Trustee reasonably believes conflicts with any applicable law or the Indenture, that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of another Holder, or that may subject the Trustee to personal liability; provided that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction. The Trustee may withhold from Holders notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal, interest or premium) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest.
     13. Trustee Dealings with Issuers. If the Trustee becomes a creditor of an Issuer or any Guarantor, the Indenture limits the right of the Trustee to obtain payment of claims in certain cases, or to realize on certain property received in respect of any such claim as security or otherwise. The Trustee will be permitted to engage in other transactions with the Issuers or their Affiliates as if it were not Trustee; provided, however, that if it acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as Trustee (if the Indenture has been qualified under the TIA) or resign.
     14. No Recourse Against Others. No past, present or future director, manager, officer, employee, incorporator, member or stockholder of the Issuers or any Guarantor, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Issuers or the Guarantors under the Notes, the Indenture or the Note Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws.
     15. Note Guarantees. Payment of principal, premium, if any, interest and Special Interest, if any, on the Notes, is unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by each Guarantor.
     16. Authentication. This Note shall not be valid until the Trustee or Authenticating Agent manually signs the certificate of authentication on this Note.
     17. Governing Law. THE INDENTURE, THE NOTES, THE GUARANTEES AND THE COLLATERAL DOCUMENTS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICT OF LAWS.
     18. Abbreviations and Defined Terms. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).
     19. Conflicts with the Indenture. This Note is subject to all terms and conditions of the Indenture. To the extent that any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the

A-8


 

Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern.
     20. Security. The Issuers’ and Guarantors’ obligations under the Notes are secured by liens on the Collateral pursuant to the terms of the Collateral Documents. The actions of the Trustee, the Security Trustee, the Collateral Agent and the Holders secured by such liens and the application of proceeds from the enforcement of any remedies with respect to such Collateral are limited pursuant to the terms of the Collateral Documents.
     21. CUSIP Numbers. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Issuers have caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes as a convenience to the Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed thereon, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers.
     The Issuers shall furnish to any Holder upon written request and without charge a copy of the Indenture and the Collateral Documents. Requests may be made to:
