by holders seeking to accept the Change of Control Offer. In addition, in the event of a Change of Control Repurchase Event, Valaris
may not be able to obtain the consents necessary to consummate a Change of Control Offer from the lenders under agreements governing
outstanding Indebtedness which may prohibit the offer. If Valaris fails to repurchase all of the notes tendered for purchase upon
a Change of Control Repurchase Event, such failure will constitute an Event of Default. Moreover, the exercise by holders of their
right to require Valaris to purchase 2025 Notes could cause a default under such Indebtedness, even if the Change of Control itself
does not, due to the financial effect of the repurchase on Valaris. Finally, Valaris&rsquo;s ability to pay cash to the holders
upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event may be limited by its then existing financial resources.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">The provisions described above that
require Valaris to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control Repurchase Event will be applicable
regardless of whether any other provisions of the indenture are applicable to the transaction giving rise to the Change of
Control Repurchase Event. The Change of Control Repurchase Event purchase feature of the 2025 Notes may in certain
circumstances make more difficult or discourage a sale or takeover of Valaris and, thus, the removal of incumbent management.
The Change of Control Repurchase Event purchase feature is a result of negotiations between the issuer and the underwriters
for the original issuance of the 2025 Notes. Valaris does not have the present intention to engage in a transaction involving
a Change of Control, although it is possible that Valaris could decide to do so in the future. Subject to the limitations
discussed below, Valaris could, in the future, enter into certain transactions, including acquisitions, refinancing or other
recapitalizations, that would not constitute a Change of Control Repurchase Event under the indenture, but that could
increase the amount of Indebtedness outstanding at such time or otherwise effect Valaris&rsquo;s consolidated capital
structure or credit ratings. Restrictions on the ability of Valaris and its Subsidiaries to incur additional Indebtedness are
contained in the covenants described under &ldquo;&mdash;Restrictive Covenants&mdash;Limitation on Liens&rdquo; and
 &ldquo;&mdash;Restrictive Covenants&mdash;Limitations on Sale and Leaseback Transactions.&rdquo; Except as described above
with respect to a Change of Control, the indenture does not contain provisions that permit the holders to require that
Valaris purchase or redeem the notes in the event of a takeover, recapitalization or similar transaction.</P>
