Explanation of Responses:

1. Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated July 21, 2007 (the "Merger Agreement") among Transocean Inc., Transocean Worldwide Inc. and GlobalSantaFe Corporation ("GlobalSantaFe"), at the effective time of the merger contemplated by the Merger Agreement, each outstanding ordinary share, par value $0.01 per share, of GlobalSantaFe was converted into the right to receive 0.4757 ordinary shares of Transocean, having a market value of $129.39 per share as of the close of trading on the trading day immediately preceding the effective time of the merger, and $22.46 in cash.

2. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the merger, each outstanding option to purchase GlobalSantaFe ordinary shares was assumed by Transocean and became fully vested and exercisable for a number of Transocean ordinary shares equal to the number of GlobalSantaFe ordinary shares for which such option was exercisable immediately prior to the merger multiplied by 0.6368 (rounded down to the nearest whole share) with a per share exercise price equal to the exercise price of the option immediately prior to the merger divided by 0.6368 (rounded up to the nearest whole cent).

3. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the merger, each outstanding GlobalSantaFe stock-settled appreciation right ("SAR") was assumed by Transocean and became fully vested and exercisable for a number of Transocean ordinary shares equal to the number of GlobalSantaFe ordinary shares for which such SAR was exercisable immediately prior to the merger multiplied by 0.6368 (rounded down to the nearest whole share) with a per share exercise price equal to the exercise price of the SAR immediately prior to the merger divided by 0.6368 (rounded up to the nearest whole cent).
