 Right Customers 10 We have focused our marketing efforts on customers with long-term drilling requirements with the opportunity for long-term contracts. All of our jack-ups are currently working for repeat customers. We currently have over $3.0 billion of backlog. We have continuously improved our customer satisfaction ratings, based on direct surveys. |
 (1) Average drilling revenue per day is based on the total estimated revenue divided by the minimum number of days committed in a contract. Unless otherwise noted, the total revenue includes any mobilization and demobilization fees and other contractual revenues associated with the drilling services. (2) The drilling revenue per day includes the achievement of the 12.5% bonus opportunity, but excludes mobilization revenues and revenue escalations included in the contract. Customers Provide Strong Backlog 11 Customer backlog of approximately $3.0 Billion provides visibility to cash flows |
 Right Financial Structure 12 Our financial leverage is counter-balanced by a strong contract backlog and long-term visibility of cash flows. We have refinanced our senior debt – Staggered maturities through 2023, Added flexibility to pre-pay debt without premiums, Reduced annual cash interest costs by approximately $90 million, and Financed the remaining payments for the Tungsten Explorer. We have expanded our fleet with limited equity exposure – Palladium Explorer investment (42%) limits pre-delivery equity exposure to $31 million. Management contracts with Mexico-based rig owner to provide construction oversight and rig operations management for 6 new high specification jack- ups expands fleet with no initial equity investment. |
 Strong Growing Cash Flow to Service Debt 13 Long-term contracts provide visibility to cash flow to support existing leverage. Investments made to-date generating favorable returns for the future. With the deployment of the Tungsten Explorer later this year, Vantage will have a full run rate for its fleet in 2014 and target 2014 metrics – Return on Capital Employed: 11% to 13% Net Debt to EBITDA: 4.8X to 5.0X EBITDA per Share: $1.65 to $1.80 EPS per Share: $.35 to $.40, or greater |
