after the consummation of the previously-announced business combination between Tidewater Inc. (&#147;Tidewater&#148;) and GulfMark Offshore, Inc. (&#147;GulfMark&#148; and such event, the &#147;Business Combination&#148;), Quinn P. Fanning stepped
down from his position as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Tidewater. At its first meeting following the Business Combination, which occurred the same day, the board of directors of Tidewater (the &#147;Board&#148;) appointed
Quintin V. Kneen to succeed Mr.&nbsp;Fanning as its Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. While these changes were effective immediately, Mr.&nbsp;Fanning will continue to serve Tidewater for a period of time in order to ensure an
orderly transition, including serving as an officer of certain Tidewater subsidiaries. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Mr.&nbsp;Kneen, age 53, served as President and
Chief Executive Officer of GulfMark from June 2013 until the consummation of the Business Combination. Mr.&nbsp;Kneen first joined GulfMark in June 2008 as Vice President &#150; Finance, was promoted to Senior Vice President &#150; Finance and
Administration in December 2008, and served as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer from 2009 until his promotion to President and CEO in 2013. Prior to joining GulfMark, Mr.&nbsp;Kneen was Vice President &#150; Finance&nbsp;&amp;
Investor Relations for Grant Prideco, Inc., serving in executive finance positions at Grant Prideco between 2003 and 2008. Earlier in his career, Mr.&nbsp;Kneen held executive finance positions at Azurix Corp. and was an Audit Manager with the
Houston office of Price Waterhouse LLP. He holds a Master of Business Administration from Rice University and a Bachelor of Business Administration in Accounting from Texas A&amp;M University, and is a Certified Public Accountant and a Chartered
Financial Analyst. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As the compensation committee of the Board has not yet made any determinations regarding his compensation,
Mr.&nbsp;Kneen continues to receive the same compensation and benefits, including base salary, that were due to him under his employment agreement with GulfMark, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to GulfMark&#146;s Current Report on Form <FONT

Rynd, commented, &#147;Quinn has been a key member of the Tidewater executive management team for many years. His hard work, perseverance and intellect were critical to Tidewater&#146;s ability to negotiate a consensual <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">pre-packaged</FONT> Chapter 11 restructuring with our creditors, thus establishing the foundation for consolidation and growth that we are on today. His significant efforts, energy and leadership also helped us to
successfully complete the business combination with GulfMark. Tidewater appreciates Quinn&#146;s many contributions and wishes him great success in his future professional endeavors. We will work with Quinn to determine an appropriate transition
timetable with Quintin.&#148; </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Mr.&nbsp;Rynd continued, &#147;We very much welcome Quintin to the management team. As President and Chief Executive
Officer of GulfMark, Quintin navigated that company through its own <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">pre-packaged</FONT> Chapter 11 restructuring. Along with GulfMark&#146;s board of directors, Quintin led GulfMark through the critical process of
determining the most appropriate merger partner to enable GulfMark to capitalize on its impressive financial and operating position. We are confident that his strong financial professional background and leading executive experience will benefit
Tidewater for years to come.&#148; </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>About Tidewater </B></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In accordance with the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Tidewater notes that certain statements set forth in
this presentation provide other than historical information and are forward looking. The unfolding of future economic or business developments may happen in a way not as anticipated or projected by Tidewater and may involve numerous risks and
uncertainties that may cause Tidewater&#146;s actual achievement of any forecasted results to be materially different from that stated or implied in the forward-looking statement. Among those risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the
control of Tidewater include, without limitation the anticipated synergies with respect to the combination of Tidewater and GulfMark; fluctuations in worldwide energy demand and oil and gas prices; fleet additions by competitors and industry
overcapacity; customer actions including changes in capital spending for offshore exploration, development and production and changes in demands for different vessel specifications; acts of terrorism and piracy; the impact of potential information
technology, cybersecurity or data security breaches; significant weather conditions; unsettled political conditions, war, civil unrest and governmental actions, especially in higher political risk countries where we operate; labor changes proposed
by international conventions; increased regulatory burdens and oversight; changes in law, economic and global financial market conditions, including the effect of enactment of U.S. tax reform or other tax law changes, trade policy and tariffs,
interest and foreign currency exchange rate volatility, commodity and equity prices and the value of financial assets; and enforcement of laws related to the environment, labor and foreign corrupt practices. Readers should consider all of these risk
