4.8Schedule 11 (Tax Escrow) to the Purchase Agreement is hereby supplemented by inserting the following as a new Clause 1.32:

5.3The Trustee is entering into this Deed of Amendment in its capacity as trustee of the KCA Deutag Equity Plan Employee Trust. Accordingly, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Deed of Amendment, and without prejudice to any provision of this Deed of Amendment which limits the liability of the Trustee to an extent greater than as provided by this clause, the liability of the Trustee shall be limited at all times to the net unencumbered assets of the KCA Deutag Equity Plan Employee Trust, which are in the Trustee’s possession or control from time to time, other than where such liabilities are attributable to fraud on the part of the Trustee.

 

5.4This Deed of Amendment and any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with it shall be governed by, and interpreted in accordance with the law of England.

 

5.5All disputes arising out of or in connection with this Deed of Amendment (including a dispute relating to any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with this Deed of Amendment or any other Transaction Document) shall be exclusively and definitively settled by arbitration pursuant to the LCIA Arbitration Rules, by three arbitrators appointed according to those rules. The arbitrators shall decide according to English law. The language of the arbitration shall be English. The place of arbitration shall be London. Nothing contained in this clause shall limit the right of any party to seek from any court of competent jurisdiction, pending appointment of an arbitral tribunal, interim relief in aid of arbitration or to protect or enforce its rights under this Deed of Amendment. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of the LCIA Arbitration Rules, the parties agree that no party may have recourse to any court of competent jurisdiction: (i) for determination by that court of any question of law arising in the course of the arbitration; or (ii) to appeal to that court on any question of law arising out of any award made in the arbitration.

 

5.6Each of the Purchaser and the Purchaser’s Guarantor irrevocably appoints Helmerich & Payne Technologies UK Limited of Spey House Dochfour Business Centre, Dochgarroch, Inverness, IV3 8GY, Scotland as its agent in the United Kingdom for service of process in the event that recourse is sought to the English courts in relation to any arbitral proceedings contemplated by clause ‎5.5. If such process agent ceases to be able to act as process agent or to have an address in the United Kingdom, the Purchaser’s Guarantor irrevocably agrees to appoint a new process agent in the United Kingdom and to inform the Lead Sellers in writing, as soon as reasonably practicable following the appointment of its new process agent.

 

5.7The language of this Deed of Amendment and the transactions envisaged by it is English and all notices, demands, requests, statements, certificates or other documents or communications must be in English unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Purchaser and Seller Representatives.

I am appreciative of and impressed by the entire team across our global operations for all of their hard work and commitment.
