TRANSITION SERVICES AGREEMENT

This TRANSITION SERVICES AGREEMENT (together with the Schedules hereto, this “Agreement”) is entered into as of [            ], 2010, by and between McDermott International, Inc., a Panamanian corporation (“McDermott”), and The Babcock & Wilcox Company, a Delaware corporation (“B&W”).

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of McDermott has determined that it would be appropriate and desirable for McDermott to distribute (the “Distribution”) on a pro rata basis to the holders of outstanding shares of common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of McDermott all of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of B&W owned by McDermott;

WHEREAS, in order to effectuate the foregoing, McDermott and B&W have entered into a Master Separation Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Master Separation Agreement”), which provides, among other things, upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, for the separation of the respective businesses of McDermott and B&W and the Distribution, and the execution and delivery of certain other agreements, including this Agreement, in order to facilitate and provide for the foregoing; and

WHEREAS, in order to provide for an orderly transition under the Master Separation Agreement, it will be advisable for McDermott, through members of the MII Group, to provide to B&W certain services described herein for a transitional period.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

ARTICLE II

SERVICES

Section 2.1    Services.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, McDermott, acting directly and/or through its Affiliates and their respective employees, agents, contractors or independent third parties designated by any of them, agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide or to cause to be provided services to the B&W Group as set forth in Schedules A through N (including any Additional Services provided in accordance with Section 2.3 hereof, all such services are collectively referred to herein as the “Services”).

(b) At all times during the performance of the Services, all Persons performing such Services (including agents, temporary employees, independent third parties and consultants) shall be construed as being independent from the B&W Group, and such Persons shall not be considered or deemed to be employees of any member of the B&W Group nor entitled to any employee benefits of B&W as a result of this Agreement. The responsibility of such Persons is to perform the Services in accordance with this Agreement and, as necessary, to advise the applicable member of the B&W Group in connection therewith, and such Persons shall not be responsible for decision-making on behalf of any member of the B&W Group. Such Persons shall not be required to report to management of any member of the B&W Group nor be deemed to be under the management or direction of any member of the B&W Group. B&W acknowledges and agrees that, except as may be expressly set forth herein as a Service (including any Additional Services provided in accordance with Section 2.3 hereof) or otherwise expressly set forth in the Master Separation Agreement or an Ancillary Agreement, no member of the MII Group shall be obligated to provide, or cause to be provided, any service or goods to any member of the B&W Group.

2

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, McDermott and members of the MII Group shall not be required to perform Services hereunder or take any actions relating thereto that conflict with or violate any applicable law, contract, license, authorization, certification or permit or McDermott’s Code of Business Conduct or other governance policies, as they may be amended from time to time.

Section 2.2    Service Coordinators. Each party will nominate in writing a representative to act as the primary contact with respect to the provision of the Services and the resolution of disputes under this Agreement (each such person, a “Service Coordinator”). The initial Service Coordinators shall be Mr. Gary Brauchle (for McDermott) and Mr. Keith Robinson (for B&W) (or their designated delegates) for each of McDermott and B&W, respectively. The Service Coordinators shall meet as expeditiously as possible to resolve any dispute hereunder; and any dispute that is not resolved by the Service Coordinators within 45 days shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Article V of the Master Separation Agreement. Each party hereto may treat an act of a Service Coordinator of the other party hereto which is consistent with the provisions of this Agreement as being authorized by such other party without inquiring behind such act or ascertaining whether such Service Coordinator had authority to so act; provided, however, that no such Service Coordinator shall have authority to amend this Agreement. McDermott and B&W shall advise each other promptly (in any case no more than three Business Days) in writing of any change in their respective Service Coordinators, setting forth the name of the replacement, and stating that the replacement Service Coordinator is authorized to act for such party in accordance with this Section 2.2.

Section 2.3    Additional Services. B&W may request additional Services (the “Additional Services”) from McDermott by providing written notice. Upon the mutual written agreement as to the nature, cost, duration and scope of such Additional Services, McDermott and B&W shall supplement in writing the Schedules hereto to include such Additional Services. Subject to the other limitations in this Agreement, including the provisions in Section 2.6, but notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.3, in addition to providing the Services specified in the Schedules, McDermott, acting directly and/or through its Affiliates and their respective employees, agents, contractors or independent third parties designated by any of them, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide or to cause to be provided additional, de minimis administrative support services to the B&W Group as may be requested by any member of the B&W Group from time to time, at no cost beyond the amounts set forth in the Schedules (as the amounts set forth in the Schedules contemplate such additional, de minimis administrative support services); provided, however, that, for any such additional services to be considered de minimis for purposes of this sentence, such additional services shall not require the attention of (i) any one employee of any member of the McDermott Group for more than 2 hours in any single calendar month or (ii) any group of employees of any one or more members of the McDermott Group for more than 30 hours in any single calendar month. Except where the context otherwise indicates or requires, any such additional services referred to in the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to be “Services” under this Agreement.

Section 2.4    Third Party Services. McDermott shall have the right to hire third-party subcontractors to provide all or part of any Service hereunder; provided, that McDermott shall consult in good faith with B&W regarding the proposed hiring of any third-party subcontractor that has not previously been involved in the activities relating to such Service prior to the date

3

hereof; provided, further, that, in the event such subcontracting is inconsistent with the practice applied by McDermott generally from time to time within its own organization, McDermott shall give notice to B&W of its intent to subcontract any portion of the Services and B&W shall have 20 days (or such lesser period set forth in the notice as may be practicable in the event of exigent circumstances) to determine, in its sole discretion, whether to permit such subcontracting or whether to cancel such Service in accordance with Article VI hereof. If B&W opts to cancel a Service pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, it shall not be liable to McDermott pursuant to Section 6.1 for any costs or expenses McDermott or any member of the MII Group remains obligated to pay to the third-party subcontractor identified in the notice provided by McDermott as described above. McDermott shall not be required to give notice of its intent to subcontract Services to any party listed on Exhibit 2.4 hereto, nor shall B&W have any right to cancel any Service subcontracted to any such listed party pursuant to this Section 2.4 (provided, that this sentence shall not prevent B&W from cancelling any Service pursuant to Section 6.1).

Section 2.5    Standard of Performance; Limitation of Liability.

(a) The Services to be provided hereunder shall be performed with the same general degree of care, at the same general level and at the same general degree of accuracy and responsiveness, as when performed within the McDermott organization (including, for this purpose, B&W and its subsidiaries) prior to the date of this Agreement. It is understood and agreed that McDermott and the members of the MII Group are not professional providers of the types of services included in the Services and that McDermott personnel performing Services have other responsibilities and will not be dedicated full-time to performing Services hereunder.

(b) In the event McDermott or any member of the MII Group fails to provide, or cause to be provided, the Services in accordance with the standard of service set forth in Section 2.5(a) or Section 2.5(c), the sole and exclusive remedy of B&W shall be, at B&W’s sole discretion, within 90 days from the date that McDermott or such member of the MII Group first fails to provide such Service, to not pay for such Service; provided that in the event McDermott defaults in the manner described in clause (ii) of Section 7.1, B&W shall have the further rights set forth in Article VII.

(c) EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 2.5, NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED (INCLUDING THE WARRANTIES OF NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR CONFORMITY TO ANY REPRESENTATION OR DESCRIPTION), ARE MADE BY MCDERMOTT OR ANY MEMBER OF THE MII GROUP WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ALL SUCH REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES ARE HEREBY WAIVED AND DISCLAIMED. B&W (ON ITS OWN BEHALF AND ON BEHALF OF EACH OTHER MEMBER OF THE B&W GROUP) HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT B&W OR ANY MEMBER OF THE B&W GROUP MAY OTHERWISE HAVE FOR ANY LOSSES, TO ENFORCE SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE OR TO PURSUE ANY OTHER REMEDY AVAILABLE IN CONTRACT, AT LAW OR IN EQUITY IN THE EVENT OF ANY NON-PERFORMANCE, INADEQUATE PERFORMANCE, FAULTY PERFORMANCE OR OTHER FAILURE OR BREACH BY MCDERMOTT OR ANY MEMBER OF THE MII

4

GROUP UNDER OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, NOTWITHSTANDING THE NEGLIGENCE OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE (WHETHER SOLE, JOINT OR CONCURRENT OR ACTIVE OR PASSIVE) OF MCDERMOTT OR ANY MEMBER OF THE MII GROUP OR ANY THIRD PARTY SERVICE PROVIDER AND WHETHER DAMAGES ARE ASSERTED IN CONTRACT OR TORT, UNDER FEDERAL, STATE OR NON U.S. LAWS OR OTHER STATUTE OR OTHERWISE; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE FOREGOING WAIVER SHALL NOT EXTEND TO COVER, AND MCDERMOTT SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR, SUCH LOSSES CAUSED BY THE WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF MCDERMOTT OR ANY MEMBER OF THE MII GROUP. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE MII GROUP BE LIABLE TO THE B&W GROUP WITH RESPECT TO CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT FOR AMOUNTS IN THE AGGREGATE EXCEEDING THE AGGREGATE SERVICE CHARGES PAID HEREUNDER BY THE B&W GROUP.

Section 2.6    Service Boundaries and Scope. Except as provided in a Schedule for a specific Service: (a) McDermott shall be required to provide, or cause to be provided, the Services only at the locations such Services are being provided by any member of the MII Group for any member of the B&W Group immediately prior to the Distribution Date; provided, however, that, to the extent any such Service is to be provided by an employee of McDermott who works in the corporate headquarters of McDermott, such Service shall, to the extent feasible, only be provided by such employee from the corporate headquarters of McDermott; and (b) the Services shall be available only for purposes of conducting the business of the B&W Group substantially in the manner it was conducted immediately prior to the Distribution Date. Except as provided in a Schedule for a specific Service, in providing, or causing to be provided, the Services, McDermott shall not be obligated to: (i) maintain the employment of any specific employee or hire additional employees or third-party service providers; (ii) purchase, lease or license any additional equipment (including computer equipment, furniture, furnishings, fixtures, machinery, vehicles, tools and other tangible personal property), software or other assets, rights or properties; (iii) make modifications to its existing systems or software; (iv) provide any member of the B&W Group with access to any systems or software other than those to which it has authorized access immediately prior to the Distribution Date; or (v) pay any costs related to the transfer or conversion of data of any member of the B&W Group. B&W acknowledges (on its own behalf and on behalf of the other members of the B&W Group) that the employees of McDermott or any other members of the MII Group who may be assisting in the provision of Services hereunder are at-will employees and, as such, may terminate or be terminated from employment with McDermott or any of the other members of the MII Group providing Services hereunder at any time for any reason. In no event shall McDermott or any of its Affiliates or any of their respective employees or agents be required to perform any Services or take any other actions hereunder that conflict with any applicable Law. For the avoidance of doubt and except as may hereafter be designated as Additional Services in accordance with Section 2.3, the Services do not include any services required for or as the result of any business acquisitions, divestitures, start-ups or terminations by the B&W Group. To the extent B&W desires McDermott to provide any services in connection with any such acquisitions, divestitures, start-ups or terminations, B&W shall follow the procedures for requesting Additional Services pursuant to Section 2.3.

5

Section 2.7    Cooperation. McDermott and B&W shall cooperate with one another and provide such further assistance as the other party may reasonably request in connection with the provision of Services hereunder.

Section 2.8    Transitional Nature of Services; Changes. Subject to Sections 2.3 and 2.5, the parties acknowledge the transitional nature of the Services and that McDermott may make changes from time to time in the manner of performing the Services.

Section 2.9    Access. During the term of this Agreement and for so long as any Services are being provided to B&W by McDermott, B&W will provide McDermott and its authorized representatives reasonable access, during regular business hours upon reasonable notice, to B&W and its employees, representatives, facilities and books and records as McDermott and its representatives may reasonably require in order to perform such Services.

ARTICLE III

SERVICE CHARGES

Section 3.1     Compensation. Subject to the specific terms of this Agreement, the compensation to be received by McDermott for each Service provided hereunder will be the fees set forth on the Schedule relating to the particular Service, subject to any escalation provided for on such Schedule. In consideration for the provision of a Service, each member of the B&W Group receiving such Service shall pay to McDermott or, at the election of McDermott, the member of the MII Group providing such Service, the applicable fee for such Service as set forth on the attached Schedules.

ARTICLE IV

PAYMENT

Section 4.1    Payment. Except as otherwise provided in a Schedule for a specific Service, charges for Services shall be invoiced monthly by McDermott or, at its option, the member of the MII Group providing the Service. Except as otherwise provided in a Schedule for a specific Service, B&W shall make the corresponding payment no later than 60 days after receipt of the invoice. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, B&W shall remit funds in payment of invoices provided hereunder either by wire transfer or ACH (Automated Clearing House) in accordance with the payment instructions set forth in Schedule 4.1. Each invoice shall be directed to the B&W Service Coordinator or such other person designated in writing from time to time by such Service Coordinator. The invoice shall set forth in reasonable detail the Services rendered and the invoice amount for the Services rendered for the period covered by such invoice. Interest will accrue on any unpaid amounts at ten percent (10%) per annum (compounded monthly) or, if less, the maximum non-usurious rate of interest permitted by applicable law, until such amounts, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, are paid in full. All timely payments under this Agreement shall be made without early payment discount. Any preexisting obligation to make payment for Services provided hereunder shall survive the termination of this Agreement. If McDermott incurs any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including any incremental license fees incurred by McDermott in connection with performance of the Services and any travel expenses incurred at the request or with the consent of B&W) or remits funds to a third-party on behalf of B&W, in either case in connection with

6

the rendering of Services, then McDermott shall include such amount on its monthly invoice to B&W, with reasonable supporting documentation, and B&W shall reimburse that amount to McDermott pursuant to this Section 4.1 as part of its next monthly payment.

Section 4.2    Payment Disputes. B&W may object to any amounts for any Service at any time before, at the time of, or after payment is made, provided such objection is made in writing to McDermott within 120 days following the date of the disputed invoice. B&W shall timely pay the disputed items in full while resolution of the dispute is pending; provided, however, that McDermott shall pay interest at a rate of five percent (5%) per annum (compounded monthly) on any amounts it is required to return to B&W upon resolution of the dispute. Payment of any amount shall not constitute approval thereof. The Service Coordinators shall meet as expeditiously as possible to resolve any dispute. Any dispute that is not resolved by the Service Coordinators within 45 days shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution and arbitration procedures set forth in Article V of the Master Separation Agreement. Neither party (or any member of its respective Group) shall have a right of set-off against the other party (or any member of its respective Group) for billed amounts hereunder. Upon written request, McDermott will provide to B&W reasonable detail and support documentation to permit B&W to verify the accuracy of an invoice.

Section 4.3    Review of Charges; Error Correction. McDermott shall maintain accurate books and records (including invoices of third parties) related to the Services sufficient to calculate, and allow B&W to verify, the amounts owed under this Agreement. From time to time until 120 days following the termination of this Agreement, B&W shall have the right to review, and McDermott shall provide access to, such books and records to verify the accuracy of such amounts, provided that such reviews shall not occur more frequently than once per calendar quarter. Each such review shall be conducted during normal business hours and in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the operations of McDermott. If, as a result of any such review, B&W determines that it overpaid any amount to McDermott, then B&W may raise an objection pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.2. B&W shall bear the cost and expense of any such review. McDermott shall make adjustments to charges as required to reflect the discovery of errors or omissions in charges.

Section 4.4    Taxes. All transfer taxes, excises, fees or other charges (including value added, sales, use or receipts taxes, but not including a tax on or measured by the income, net or gross revenues, business activity or capital of a member of the MII Group), or any increase therein, now or hereafter imposed directly or indirectly by law upon any fees paid hereunder for Services, which a member of the MII Group is required to pay or incur in connection with the provision of Services hereunder (“Tax”), shall be passed on to B&W as an explicit surcharge and shall be paid by B&W in addition to any Service fee payment, whether included in the applicable Service fee payment, or added retroactively. If B&W submits to McDermott a timely and valid resale or other exemption certificate acceptable to McDermott and sufficient to support the exemption from Tax, then such Tax will not be added to the Service fee payable pursuant to Article III; provided, however, that if a member of the MII Group is ever required to pay such Tax, B&W will promptly reimburse McDermott for such Tax, including any interest, penalties and attorney’s fees related thereto. The parties will cooperate to minimize the imposition of any Taxes.

7

Section 4.5    Records. McDermott shall maintain true and correct records of all receipts, invoices, reports and such other documents relating to the Services hereunder in accordance with its standard accounting practices and procedures, consistently applied. McDermott shall retain such accounting records and make them available to B&W’s authorized representatives and auditors for a period of not less than one year from the close of each fiscal year of McDermott; provided, however, that McDermott may, at its option, transfer such accounting records to B&W upon termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE VI

DISCONTINUATION OF SERVICES

Section 6.1    Discontinuation of Services. Unless otherwise provided in the relevant Schedule for a particular Service, at any time after the Distribution Date, B&W may, without cause and in accordance with the terms and conditions hereunder and the Master Separation Agreement, request the discontinuation of one or more specific Services by giving McDermott at least 30 days’ prior written notice; provided, however, that any such discontinuation will not affect the amounts payable to McDermott hereunder unless (and then only to the extent that) the charges for the discontinued Services have been separately identified in the applicable Schedule. B&W shall be liable to McDermott for all costs and expenses McDermott or any member of the MII Group remains obligated to pay in connection with any discontinued Service or Services, except in the case of a Service terminated by B&W pursuant to clause (ii) of the first sentence of Section 7.1 hereof. The parties shall cooperate as reasonably required to effectuate an orderly and systematic transfer to the B&W Group of all of the duties and obligations previously performed by McDermott or a member of the MII Group under this Agreement.

Section 6.2    Procedures Upon Discontinuation or Termination of Services. Upon the discontinuation or termination of a Service hereunder, this Agreement shall be of no further force and effect with respect to such Service, except as otherwise provided in a Schedule for a specific

Each party and the applicable member(s) of its respective Group shall, within 60 days after discontinuation or termination of a Service, deliver to the other party and the applicable member(s) of its respective Group originals of all books, records, contracts, receipts for deposits and all other papers or documents in its possession which pertain exclusively to the business of the other party and relate to such Service; provided that a party may retain copies of material provided to the other party pursuant to this Section 6.2 as it deems necessary or appropriate in connection with its financial reporting obligations or internal control practices and policies.

ARTICLE VII

DEFAULT

Section 7.1    Termination for Default. In the event (i) of a failure of B&W to pay for Services in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, or (ii) any party shall default, in any material respect, in the due performance or observance by it of any of the other terms, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, then (1) if the non-defaulting party is McDermott, McDermott shall have the right, at its sole discretion, to immediately terminate the Service with respect to which the default occurred, and (2) if the non-defaulting party is B&W, B&W shall have the right, at its sole discretion, to immediately terminate the Service with respect to which the default occurred, in either case if the defaulting party has failed to cure the default within 30 days of receipt of the written notice of such default. B&W’s right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Article VII and the rights set forth in Section 2.5 shall constitute B&W’s sole and exclusive rights and remedies for a breach by McDermott hereunder (including any breach caused by an Affiliate of McDermott or other third party providing a Service hereunder).

ARTICLE VIII

INDEMNIFICATION AND WAIVER

Section 8.1    Waiver of Consequential Damages. NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR ANY EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, REMOTE OR SPECULATIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING IN RESPECT OF LOST PROFITS OR REVENUES), HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER OR NOT SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS SHALL NOT LIMIT EACH PARTY’S INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS FOR LIABILITIES TO THIRD PARTIES AS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE MASTER SEPARATION AGREEMENT OR ANY ANCILLARY AGREEMENT.

Section 8.2    Services Received. B&W hereby acknowledges and agrees that:

(a) the Services to be provided hereunder are subject to and limited by the provisions of Section 2.5, Article VII and the other provisions hereof, including the limitation of remedies available to B&W that restricts available remedies resulting from a Service not

9

provided in accordance with the terms hereof to non-payment and, in certain limited circumstances, the right to terminate this Agreement;

(b) the Services are being provided solely to facilitate the transition of B&W to a separate company as a result of the Distribution, and McDermott and its Affiliates do not provide any such Services to non-Affiliates;

(c) it is not the intent of McDermott and the other members of the MII Group to render, nor of B&W and the other members of the B&W Group to receive from McDermott and the other members of the MII Group, professional advice or opinions, whether with regard to tax, legal, treasury, finance, employment or other business and financial matters, or technical advice, whether with regard to information technology or other matters; B&W shall not rely on, or construe, any Service rendered by or on behalf of McDermott as such professional advice or opinions or technical advice; and B&W shall seek all third-party professional advice and opinions or technical advice as it may desire or need, and in any event B&W shall be responsible for and assume all risks associated with the Services, except to the limited extent set forth in Section 2.5 and Article VII;

(d) with respect to any software or documentation within the Services, B&W shall use such software and documentation internally and for their intended purpose only, shall not distribute, publish, transfer, sublicense or in any manner make such software or documentation available to other organizations or persons, and shall not act as a service bureau or consultant in connection with such software; and

(e) a material inducement to McDermott’s agreement to provide the Services is the limitation of liability and the release provided by B&W in this Agreement.

ACCORDINGLY, EXCEPT WITH REGARD TO THE LIMITED REMEDIES EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, B&W SHALL ASSUME ALL LIABILITY FOR AND SHALL FURTHER RELEASE, DEFEND, INDEMNIFY AND HOLD MCDERMOTT, ANY MEMBER OF THE MII GROUP AND THEIR RESPECTIVE EMPLOYEES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS AND AGENTS (ALL AS INDEMNIFIED PARTIES) FREE AND HARMLESS FROM AND AGAINST ALL LOSSES RESULTING FROM, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SERVICES, HOWSOEVER ARISING AND WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY THE NEGLIGENCE OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE OF MCDERMOTT, ANY MEMBER OF THE MII GROUP OR ANY THIRD PARTY SERVICE PROVIDER, OTHER THAN THOSE LOSSES CAUSED BY THE WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF MCDERMOTT OR ANY MEMBER OF THE MII GROUP.

Section 8.3    Express Negligence. THE INDEMNITY, RELEASES AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY IN THIS AGREEMENT (INCLUDING ARTICLES II AND VIII) ARE INTENDED TO BE ENFORCEABLE AGAINST THE PARTIES IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE EXPRESS TERMS AND SCOPE THEREOF NOTWITHSTANDING ANY EXPRESS NEGLIGENCE RULE OR ANY SIMILAR DIRECTIVE THAT WOULD PROHIBIT OR OTHERWISE LIMIT INDEMNITIES BECAUSE OF THE NEGLIGENCE OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE (WHETHER SOLE,

ARTICLE IX

CONFIDENTIALITY

Section 9.1    Confidentiality. B&W and McDermott each acknowledge and agree that the terms of Section 6.9 of the Master Separation Agreement shall apply to information, documents, plans and other data made available or disclosed by one party to the other in connection with this Agreement. B&W and McDermott each acknowledge and agree that any third party Information (to the extent such Information does not constitute McDermott Books and Records) provided by any member of the B&W Group to any member of the MII Group after the Distribution Date in connection with the provision of the Services by any member of the MII Group, or generated, maintained or held in connection with the provision of the Services by any member of the MII Group after the Distribution Date, in each case that primarily relates to the B&W Business, the B&W Assets, or the B&W Liabilities, shall not be considered Privileged Information of McDermott or Confidential Information of McDermott.

Section 9.2    System Security.

(a) If any party hereto is given access to the other party’s computer systems or software (collectively, the “Systems”) in connection with the Services, the party given access (the “Availed Party”) shall comply with all of the other party’s system security policies, procedures and requirements that have been provided to the Availed Party in advance and in writing (collectively, “Security Regulations”), and shall not tamper with, compromise or circumvent any security or audit measures employed by such other party. The Availed Party shall access and use only those Systems of the other party for which it has been granted the right to access and use.

(b) Each party hereto shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that only those of its personnel who are specifically authorized to have access to the Systems of the other party gain such access, and use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized access, use, destruction, alteration or loss of information contained therein, including notifying its personnel of the restrictions set forth in this Agreement and of the Security Regulations.

(c) If, at any time, the Availed Party determines that any of its personnel has sought to circumvent, or has circumvented, the Security Regulations, that any unauthorized Availed Party personnel has accessed the Systems, or that any of its personnel has engaged in activities that may lead to the unauthorized access, use, destruction, alteration or loss of data, information or software of the other party hereto, the Availed Party shall promptly terminate any such person’s access to the Systems and immediately notify the other party hereto. In addition, such other party hereto shall have the right to deny personnel of the Availed Party access to its Systems upon notice to the Availed Party in the event that the other party hereto reasonably believes that such personnel have engaged in any of the activities set forth above in this Section 9.2(c) or otherwise pose a security concern. The Availed Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the other party hereto in investigating any apparent unauthorized access to such other party’s Systems.

ARTICLE X

FORCE MAJEURE

Section 10.1    Performance Excused. Continued performance of a Service may be suspended immediately to the extent caused by any event or condition beyond the reasonable control of the party suspending such performance (and not involving any willful misconduct of such party), including acts of God, pandemics, floods, fire, earthquakes, labor or trade disturbances, strikes, war, acts of terrorism, civil commotion, electrical shortages or blackouts, breakdown or injury to computing facilities, compliance in good faith with any Law (whether or not it later proves to be invalid), unavailability of materials or bad weather (a “Force Majeure Event”). B&W shall not be obligated to pay any amount for Services that it does not receive as a result of a Force Majeure Event (and the parties hereto shall negotiate reasonably to determine the amount applicable to such Services not received). In addition to the reduction of any amounts owed by B&W hereunder, during the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event, to the extent the provision of any Service has been disrupted or reduced, during such disruption or reduction, (a) B&W may replace any such affected Service by providing any such Service for itself or engaging one or more third parties to provide such Service at the expense of B&W and (b) McDermott shall cooperate with, provide such information to and take such other actions as may be reasonably required to assist such third parties to provide such substitute Service.

ARTICLE XI

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 11.1    Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the documents referenced herein (including the Master Separation Agreement), constitutes the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior written and oral and all contemporaneous oral agreements and understandings with respect to the subject matter hereof. To the extent any provision of this Agreement conflicts with the provisions of the Master Separation Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to control with respect to the subject matter hereof.

Section 11.2    Binding Effect; No Third-Party Beneficiaries; Assignment. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns; and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any other person or entity any rights, benefits or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement. This Agreement may not be assigned by either party hereto, except with the prior written consent of the other party hereto.

12

Section 11.3    Amendment; Waivers. No change or amendment may be made to this Agreement except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of both of the parties hereto. Either party hereto may, at any time, (i) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other, (ii) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto, and (iii) waive compliance by the other with any of the agreements, covenants or conditions contained herein. Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party to be bound thereby. No failure or delay on the part of either party hereto in the exercise of any right hereunder shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of, or acquiescence in, any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right.

Section 11.4    Notices. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices, claims, certificates, requests, demands and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to be duly given (i) when personally delivered or (ii) if mailed by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, on the date the return receipt is executed or the letter is refused by the addressee or its agent or (iii) if sent by overnight courier which delivers only upon the signed receipt of the addressee, on the date the receipt acknowledgment is executed or refused by the addressee or its agent or (iv) if sent by facsimile or electronic mail, on the date confirmation of transmission is received (provided that a copy of any notice delivered pursuant to this clause (iv) shall also be sent pursuant to clause (i), (ii) or (iii)), addressed to the attention of the addressee’s General Counsel at the address of its principal executive office or to such other address or facsimile number for a party hereto as it shall have specified by like notice.

Section 11.5    Counterparts. This Agreement, including the Schedules hereto and the other documents referred to herein, may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Section 11.6    Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement or the Schedules attached hereto is determined by a nonappealable decision by a court, administrative agency or arbitrator to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to either party hereto. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the court, administrative agency or arbitrator shall interpret this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the fullest extent possible. If any sentence in this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.

Section 11.7    Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the substantive laws of the State of Texas, without regard to any conflicts of law provisions thereof that would result in the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

Section 11.11    Construction. This Agreement shall be construed as if jointly drafted by the parties hereto and no rule of construction or strict interpretation shall be applied against either party. In this Agreement, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, words used in the singular include the plural and words used in the plural include the singular; and if a word or phrase is defined in this Agreement, its other grammatical forms, as used in this Agreement, shall have a corresponding meaning. Whenever the context requires, the gender of all words used in this Agreement includes the masculine, feminine and the neuter. Unless the context otherwise requires, the words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation,” and the word “or” shall have the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “and/or.” The words “shall” and “will” are used interchangeably in this Agreement and have the same meaning. Relative to the determination of any period of time hereunder, “from” means “from and including,” “to” means “to but excluding” and “through” means “through and including.” All references herein to a specific time of day in this Agreement shall be based upon Central Standard Time or Central Daylight Savings Time, as applicable, on the date in question. Whenever this Agreement refers to a number of days, such number shall refer to calendar days unless Business Days are specified. Any reference herein to any Article, Section or Schedule means such Article or Section of, or such Schedule to, this Agreement, as the case may be, and references in any Section or definition to any clause means such clause of such Section or definition.

For the avoidance of doubt, other than in relation to these specific services, the Services do not include any employee administration functions, e.g., issuing employee salaries or bonuses to such B&W employees, nor do they include access to the McDermott network.

As indicated above, McDermott will provide IT user support assistance to B&W personnel located at McDermott’s AsiaPac Headquarters office in Singapore (11 Lorong 3 Toa Payoh (Jackson Square)) as requested by such B&W personnel, the B&W Help Desk, other B&W IT management, including assistance with PC hardware and software, printing, and general network connectivity (“User Support Services”).

Schedule K

Services for MPLS and Facility Access in Houston

Description of Services to be Provided:

Support services described in this schedule are those required to support the overall transition of information technology services, particularly with respect to the connectivity, security and integrity of required information and telecommunications systems, including firewall structure management and the distribution, forwarding and separation of e-mail (collectively, the “MPLS Services”), and further to provide for transitional information and telecommunications support and access for B&W employees resident in McDermott’s Houston facilities following the Distribution Date, including use of computers, phones, and other access requirements (collectively, the “Facility-Related Services”). Such Services will be provided at the same level they are being provided to McDermott employees in similar positions in McDermott’s Houston facilities.

MPLS Services: As of the Distribution Date, McDermott will provide the following support services, with the cooperation of B&W:

• Information Systems Connectivity and Security—McDermott will work with B&W to separate the contractual relationship with Verizon under which information systems connectivity and security (the “Information Network”) is provided. The parties anticipate that McDermott will acquire the coverage in the Houston and international regions provided under the Verizon relationship, and B&W will acquire coverage in all other regions. To the extent such separation is not completed as of the Distribution Date, the parties will cooperate through their respective Service Coordinators to complete such separation as commercially reasonable. To the extent either party needs access to the Information Network of the other party after the Distribution Date, then during the MPLS Transition Period, each party will provide the other party with reasonable access to their respective Information Networks to the extent necessary to facilitate the overall transition of information technology services. As each party no longer requires access to the Information Network of the other party with respect to specific functions, systems or services, such party’s access will be terminated. The process for such termination will be as follows: At such time as a party no longer needs access to the Information Network of the other party with respect to a particular function, system or service, then the Service Coordinator for the party no longer requiring access will provide notice to the other party’s Service Coordinator. Access management will be implemented through the relevant firewall rules. The Service Coordinators will promptly confer and reasonably determine how the firewall rules should be modified to implement the access changes. The Service Coordinator for the party owning the Information Network to which access is being restricted shall coordinate the implementation of the new firewall rules with Verizon or other service provider.

16

As part of the above Services, B&W will be allowed to continue its current use of the 131.184.46.n/24 subnet on the internet for a maximum period of twelve (12) months after the Distribution Date. During this use period, B&W will migrate off this and any other 131.184.0.0/16 subnet. Any public/internet routing or provider changes required by B&W during this period will be accommodated and auctioned by McDermott. To maintain application access while any IT transition services are being provided by either party pursuant to a Transition Services Agreement, both McDermott and B&W will maintain the current IP addressing space on their internal networks: B&W will maintain exclusive use of the 10.0.0.0 to 10.127.255.255 range and McDermott the 10.128.0.0 to 10.255.255.255 range. B&W will not expand its use of any 131.184.0.0 subnet internally or externally without prior consent of McDermott.

In addition, McDermott will provide connectivity between the B&W and McDermott networks, with both B&W and McDermott maintaining a back-to-back firewall solution allowing free and open access to applications covered under a Transition Services Agreement. Any rule changes made to these firewalls will be communicated in advance and agreed upon by both companies. B&W and McDermott will be responsible for maintaining the uptime of each firewall and the updates to routing tables on their respective networks. It is intended that rules sets on the firewalls will adopt a least access posture, i.e., only allowing IP address and TCP ports required to support application access. Any security violations or virus outbreaks on either company’s network will be communicated to the other party to ensure the integrity of each company’s network; either company may temporarily sever all access to the other during such an outbreak, until the cause has been determined and remedied.

• ADP Network Access—For a period of twelve (12) months after the Distribution Date or until all legacy date has been exported, whichever comes first, McDermott will maintain the link to the ADP legacy site systems. B&W will be allowed to use this link during such period with access and routing via the back-to-back firewalls and inter-company connectivity maintained by McDermott.

• Electronic Mail—For a period of six (6) months after the Distribution Date, McDermott will forward all emails of its former executive-level employees.

For a period of ninety (90) days after the Distribution Date, McDermott will forward emails of all its other former employees.

The foregoing electronic mail services will only be provided for so long as such employees are B&W employees after the Distribution Date.

• Phone Greeting—For a period of ninety (90) days after the Distribution Date, McDermott will maintain a phone greeting on the extensions of its former employees. The phone greeting, which will be recorded by each employee on the last day of employment with McDermott, will tell callers the new phone number(s) to use. No phone calls will be forwarded, and the foregoing phone greeting services will only be provided for so long as such employees are B&W employees after the Distribution Date.

17

• User Support—McDermott will provide IT user support assistance to B&W personnel located at 777 N. Eldridge as requested by the B&W Help Desk or other B&W IT management, including assistance with PC hardware and software, printing, general network connectivity and application access. These user support services will only be provided for a period of twelve (12) months after the Distribution Date or until the last B&W personnel has permanently departed the 777 N. Eldridge building, whichever comes first.

Facility-Related Services: As of the Distribution Date, McDermott will provide as reasonably needed personal computer, land-line telephone, Internet and Network access, and security (building access) services for those B&W employees resident in McDermott’s Houston facilities during the MPLS Transition Period.

Monthly Status Conferences: During the MPLS Transition Period, Louis Burkart and David Black (or their designated delegates) agree to confer on a monthly basis to consider and discuss the status of these Services and other issues relating thereto.

Service Fee:

Amount:	$5,000 per month
Currency:	US Dollars (USD).

Termination Date:

McDermott will provide the Services for up to eighteen (18) months from the Distribution Date, or, with respect to certain Services, for the shorter period indicated in the Services descriptions above, unless earlier terminated upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice provided to McDermott by B&W (“MPLS Transition Period”).

Such Services will be provided at the same level they are being provided for McDermott employees in similar positions in the McDermott’s New Orleans office. For the avoidance of doubt, other than in relation to these specific services, the Services do not include any employee administration functions, e.g., issuing employee salaries or bonuses to such B&W employees, nor do they include access to the McDermott network.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, B&W, acting directly and/or through its Affiliates and their respective employees, agents, contractors or independent third parties designated by any of them, agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide or to cause to be provided services to the MII Group as set forth in Schedules A through I (including any Additional Services provided in accordance with Section 2.3 hereof, all such services are collectively referred to herein as the “Services”).

(b) At all times during the performance of the Services, all Persons performing such Services (including agents, temporary employees, independent third parties and consultants) shall be construed as being independent from the MII Group, and such Persons shall not be considered or deemed to be employees of any member of the MII Group nor entitled to any employee benefits of MII as a result of this Agreement. The responsibility of such Persons is to perform the Services in accordance with this Agreement and, as necessary, to advise the applicable member of the MII Group in connection therewith, and such Persons shall not be responsible for decision-making on behalf of any member of the MII Group. Such Persons shall not be required to report to management of any member of the MII Group nor be deemed to be under the management or direction of any member of the MII Group. McDermott acknowledges and agrees that, except as may be expressly set forth herein as a Service (including any Additional Services provided in accordance with Section 2.3 hereof) or otherwise expressly set forth in the Master Separation Agreement or an Ancillary Agreement, no member of the B&W Group shall be obligated to provide, or cause to be provided, any service or goods to any member of the MII Group.

2

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, B&W and members of the B&W Group shall not be required to perform Services hereunder or take any actions relating thereto that conflict with or violate any applicable law, contract, license, authorization, certification or permit or B&W’s Code of Business Conduct or other governance policies, as they may be amended from time to time.

Section 2.2    Service Coordinators. Each party will nominate in writing a representative to act as the primary contact with respect to the provision of the Services and the resolution of disputes under this Agreement (each such person, a “Service Coordinator”). The initial Service Coordinators shall be Mr. Gary Brauchle (for McDermott) and Mr. Keith Robinson (for B&W) (or their designated delegates) for each of McDermott and B&W, respectively. The Service Coordinators shall meet as expeditiously as possible to resolve any dispute hereunder; and any dispute that is not resolved by the Service Coordinators within 45 days shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Article V of the Master Separation Agreement. Each party hereto may treat an act of a Service Coordinator of the other party hereto which is consistent with the provisions of this Agreement as being authorized by such other party without inquiring behind such act or ascertaining whether such Service Coordinator had authority to so act; provided, however, that no such Service Coordinator shall have authority to amend this Agreement. McDermott and B&W shall advise each other promptly (in any case no more than three Business Days) in writing of any change in their respective Service Coordinators, setting forth the name of the replacement, and stating that the replacement Service Coordinator is authorized to act for such party in accordance with this Section 2.2.

Section 2.3    Additional Services. McDermott may request additional Services (the “Additional Services”) from B&W by providing written notice. Upon the mutual written agreement as to the nature, cost, duration and scope of such Additional Services, McDermott and B&W shall supplement in writing the Schedules hereto to include such Additional Services. Subject to the other limitations in this Agreement, including the provisions in Section 2.6, but nothwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.3, in addition to providing the Services specified in the Schedules, B&W, acting directly and/or through its Affiliates and their respective employees, agents, contractors or independent third parties designated by any of them, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide or to cause to be provided additional, de minimis administrative support services to the MII Group as may be requested by any member of the MII Group from time to time, at no cost beyond the amounts set forth in the Schedules (as the amounts set forth in the Schedules contemplate such additional, de minimis administrative support services); provided, however, that, for any such additional services to be considered de minimis for purposes of this sentence, such additional services shall not require the attention of (i) any one employee of any member of the B&W Group for more than 2 hours in any single calendar month or (ii) any group of employees of any one or more members of the B&W Group for more than 30 hours in any single calendar month. Except where the context otherwise indicates or requires, any such additional services referred to in the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to be “Services” under this Agreement.

Section 2.4    Third Party Services. B&W shall have the right to hire third-party subcontractors to provide all or part of any Service hereunder; provided, that B&W shall consult in good faith with McDermott regarding the proposed hiring of any third-party subcontractor that has not previously been involved in the activities relating to such Service prior to the date hereof;

3

provided, further, that, in the event such subcontracting is inconsistent with the practice applied by B&W generally from time to time within its own organization, B&W shall give notice to McDermott of its intent to subcontract any portion of the Services and McDermott shall have 20 days (or such lesser period set forth in the notice as may be practicable in the event of exigent circumstances) to determine, in its sole discretion, whether to permit such subcontracting or whether to cancel such Service in accordance with Article VI hereof. If McDermott opts to cancel a Service pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, it shall not be liable to B&W pursuant to Section 6.1 for any costs or expenses B&W or any member of the B&W Group remains obligated to pay to the third-party subcontractor identified in the notice provided by B&W as described above. B&W shall not be required to give notice of its intent to subcontract Services to any party listed on Exhibit 2.4 hereto, nor shall McDermott have any right to cancel any Service subcontracted to any such listed party pursuant to this Section 2.4 (provided, that this sentence shall not prevent McDermott from cancelling any Service pursuant to Section 6.1).

Section 2.5    Standard of Performance; Limitation of Liability.

(a) The Services to be provided hereunder shall be performed with the same general degree of care, at the same general level and at the same general degree of accuracy and responsiveness, as when performed within the McDermott organization (including, for this purpose, B&W and its subsidiaries) prior to the date of this Agreement. It is understood and agreed that B&W and the members of the B&W Group are not professional providers of the types of services included in the Services and that B&W personnel performing Services have other responsibilities and will not be dedicated full-time to performing Services hereunder.

(b) In the event B&W or any member of the B&W Group fails to provide, or cause to be provided, the Services in accordance with the standard of service set forth in Section 2.5(a) or Section 2.5(c), the sole and exclusive remedy of McDermott shall be, at McDermott’s sole discretion, within 90 days from the date that B&W or such member of the B&W Group first fails to provide such Service, to not pay for such Service; provided that in the event B&W defaults in the manner described in clause (ii) of Section 7.1, McDermott shall have the further rights set forth in Article VII.

(c) EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 2.5, NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED (INCLUDING THE WARRANTIES OF NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR CONFORMITY TO ANY REPRESENTATION OR DESCRIPTION), ARE MADE BY B&W OR ANY MEMBER OF THE B&W GROUP WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ALL SUCH REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES ARE HEREBY WAIVED AND DISCLAIMED. MCDERMOTT (ON ITS OWN BEHALF AND ON BEHALF OF EACH OTHER MEMBER OF THE MII GROUP) HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT MCDERMOTT OR ANY MEMBER OF THE MII GROUP MAY OTHERWISE HAVE FOR ANY LOSSES, TO ENFORCE SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE OR TO PURSUE ANY OTHER REMEDY AVAILABLE IN CONTRACT, AT LAW OR IN EQUITY IN THE EVENT OF ANY NON-PERFORMANCE, INADEQUATE PERFORMANCE, FAULTY PERFORMANCE OR OTHER FAILURE OR BREACH BY B&W OR ANY MEMBER OF THE B&W GROUP

4

UNDER OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, NOTWITHSTANDING THE NEGLIGENCE OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE (WHETHER SOLE, JOINT OR CONCURRENT OR ACTIVE OR PASSIVE) OF B&W OR ANY MEMBER OF THE B&W GROUP OR ANY THIRD PARTY SERVICE PROVIDER AND WHETHER DAMAGES ARE ASSERTED IN CONTRACT OR TORT, UNDER FEDERAL, STATE OR NON U.S. LAWS OR OTHER STATUTE OR OTHERWISE; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE FOREGOING WAIVER SHALL NOT EXTEND TO COVER, AND B&W SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR, SUCH LOSSES CAUSED BY THE WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF B&W OR ANY MEMBER OF THE B&W GROUP. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE B&W GROUP BE LIABLE TO THE MII GROUP WITH RESPECT TO CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT FOR AMOUNTS IN THE AGGREGATE EXCEEDING THE AGGREGATE SERVICE CHARGES PAID HEREUNDER BY THE MII GROUP.

Section 2.6    Service Boundaries and Scope. Except as provided in a Schedule for a specific Service: (a) B&W shall be required to provide, or cause to be provided, the Services only at (i) the locations such Services are being provided by any member of the B&W Group for any member of the MII Group immediately prior to the Distribution Date and (ii) the corporate headquarters of B&W in Charlotte, North Carolina; provided, however, that, to the extent any such Service is to be provided by an employee of B&W who works in the corporate headquarters of B&W, such Service shall, to the extent feasible, only be provided by such employee from the corporate headquarters of B&W; and (b) the Services shall be available only for purposes of conducting the business of the MII Group substantially in the manner it was conducted immediately prior to the Distribution Date. Except as provided in a Schedule for a specific Service, in providing, or causing to be provided, the Services, B&W shall not be obligated to: (i) maintain the employment of any specific employee or hire additional employees or third-party service providers; (ii) purchase, lease or license any additional equipment (including computer equipment, furniture, furnishings, fixtures, machinery, vehicles, tools and other tangible personal property), software or other assets, rights or properties; (iii) make modifications to its existing systems or software; (iv) provide any member of the MII Group with access to any systems or software other than those to which it has authorized access immediately prior to the Distribution Date; or (v) pay any costs related to the transfer or conversion of data of any member of the MII Group. McDermott acknowledges (on its own behalf and on behalf of the other members of the MII Group) that the employees of B&W or any other members of the B&W Group who may be assisting in the provision of Services hereunder are at-will employees and, as such, may terminate or be terminated from employment with B&W or any of the other members of the B&W Group providing Services hereunder at any time for any reason. In no event shall B&W or any of its Affiliates or any of their respective employees or agents be required to perform any Services or take any other actions hereunder that conflict with any applicable Law. For the avoidance of doubt and except as may hereafter be designated as Additional Services in accordance with Section 2.3, the Services do not include any services required for or as the result of any business acquisitions, divestitures, start-ups or terminations by the MII Group. To the extent McDermott desires B&W to provide any services in connection with any such acquisitions, divestitures, start-ups or terminations, McDermott shall follow the procedures for requesting Additional Services pursuant to Section 2.3.

Section 2.8    Transitional Nature of Services; Changes. Subject to Sections 2.3 and 2.5, the parties acknowledge the transitional nature of the Services and that B&W may make changes from time to time in the manner of performing the Services.

Section 2.9    Access. During the term of this Agreement and for so long as any Services are being provided to McDermott by B&W, McDermott will provide B&W and its authorized representatives reasonable access, during regular business hours upon reasonable notice, to McDermott and its employees, representatives, facilities and books and records as B&W and its representatives may reasonably require in order to perform such Services.

ARTICLE III

SERVICE CHARGES

Section 3.1    Compensation. Subject to the specific terms of this Agreement, the compensation to be received by B&W for each Service provided hereunder will be the fees set forth on the Schedule relating to the particular Service, subject to any escalation provided for on such Schedule. In consideration for the provision of a Service, each member of the MII Group receiving such Service shall pay to B&W or, at the election of B&W, the member of the B&W Group providing such Service, the applicable fee for such Service as set forth on the attached Schedules.

ARTICLE IV

PAYMENT

Section 4.1    Payment. Except as otherwise provided in a Schedule for a specific Service, charges for Services shall be invoiced monthly by B&W or, at its option, the member of the B&W Group providing the Service. Except as otherwise provided in a Schedule for a specific Service, McDermott shall make the corresponding payment no later than 60 days after receipt of the invoice. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, McDermott shall remit funds in payment of invoices provided hereunder either by wire transfer or ACH (Automated Clearing House) in accordance with the payment instructions set forth in Schedule 4.1. Each invoice shall be directed to the MII Service Coordinator or such other person designated in writing from time to time by such Service Coordinator. The invoice shall set forth in reasonable detail the Services rendered and the invoice amount for the Services rendered for the period covered by such invoice. Interest will accrue on any unpaid amounts at ten percent (10%) per annum (compounded monthly) or, if less, the maximum non-usurious rate of interest permitted by applicable law, until such amounts, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, are paid in full. All timely payments under this Agreement shall be made without early payment discount. Any preexisting obligation to make payment for Services provided hereunder shall survive the termination of this Agreement. If B&W incurs any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including any incremental license fees incurred by B&W in connection with performance of the Services and any travel expenses incurred at the request or with the consent of McDermott) or remits funds to a third-party on behalf of McDermott, in either case in

6

connection with the rendering of Services, then B&W shall include such amount on its monthly invoice to McDermott, with reasonable supporting documentation, and McDermott shall reimburse that amount to B&W pursuant to this Section 4.1 as part of its next monthly payment.

Section 4.2    Payment Disputes. McDermott may object to any amounts for any Service at any time before, at the time of, or after payment is made, provided such objection is made in writing to B&W within 120 days following the date of the disputed invoice. McDermott shall timely pay the disputed items in full while resolution of the dispute is pending; provided, however, that B&W shall pay interest at a rate of five percent (5%) per annum (compounded monthly) on any amounts it is required to return to McDermott upon resolution of the dispute. Payment of any amount shall not constitute approval thereof. The Service Coordinators shall meet as expeditiously as possible to resolve any dispute. Any dispute that is not resolved by the Service Coordinators within 45 days shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution and arbitration procedures set forth in Article V of the Master Separation Agreement. Neither party (or any member of its respective Group) shall have a right of set-off against the other party (or any member of its respective Group) for billed amounts hereunder. Upon written request, B&W will provide to McDermott reasonable detail and support documentation to permit McDermott to verify the accuracy of an invoice.

Section 4.3    Review of Charges; Error Correction. B&W shall maintain accurate books and records (including invoices of third parties) related to the Services sufficient to calculate, and allow McDermott to verify, the amounts owed under this Agreement. From time to time until 120 days following the termination of this Agreement, McDermott shall have the right to review, and B&W shall provide access to, such books and records to verify the accuracy of such amounts, provided that such reviews shall not occur more frequently than once per calendar quarter. Each such review shall be conducted during normal business hours and in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the operations of B&W. If, as a result of any such review, McDermott determines that it overpaid any amount to B&W, then McDermott may raise an objection pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.2. McDermott shall bear the cost and expense of any such review. B&W shall make adjustments to charges as required to reflect the discovery of errors or omissions in charges.

Section 4.4    Taxes. All transfer taxes, excises, fees or other charges (including value added, sales, use or receipts taxes, but not including a tax on or measured by the income, net or gross revenues, business activity or capital of a member of the B&W Group), or any increase therein, now or hereafter imposed directly or indirectly by law upon any fees paid hereunder for Services, which a member of the B&W Group is required to pay or incur in connection with the provision of Services hereunder (“Tax”), shall be passed on to McDermott as an explicit surcharge and shall be paid by McDermott in addition to any Service fee payment, whether included in the applicable Service fee payment, or added retroactively. If McDermott submits to B&W a timely and valid resale or other exemption certificate acceptable to B&W and sufficient to support the exemption from Tax, then such Tax will not be added to the Service fee payable pursuant to Article III; provided, however, that if a member of the B&W Group is ever required to pay such Tax, McDermott will promptly reimburse B&W for such Tax, including any interest, penalties and attorney’s fees related thereto. The parties will cooperate to minimize the imposition of any Taxes.

7

Section 4.5    Records. B&W shall maintain true and correct records of all receipts, invoices, reports and such other documents relating to the Services hereunder in accordance with its standard accounting practices and procedures, consistently applied. B&W shall retain such accounting records and make them available to McDermott’s authorized representatives and auditors for a period of not less than one year from the close of each fiscal year of B&W; provided, however, that B&W may, at its option, transfer such accounting records to McDermott upon termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE V

TERM

Section 5.1    Term. Subject to Articles VI and VII, the B&W Group shall provide the specific Services to the MII Group pursuant to this Agreement for the time period set forth on the Schedule relating to the specific Service.

Except as otherwise provided in a Schedule for a specific Service or group of related Services, all Services provided for hereunder shall terminate on March 31, 2011. Except as otherwise expressly agreed or unless sooner terminated, this Agreement shall commence upon the Distribution Date and shall continue in full force and effect between the parties for so long as any Service set forth in any Schedule hereto is being provided to McDermott or members of the MII Group and this Agreement shall terminate upon the cessation of all Services provided hereunder; provided that Articles I, IV, VIII, IX and XI and Section 2.5(c) will survive the termination of this Agreement and any such termination shall not affect any obligation for the payment of Services rendered prior to termination.

ARTICLE VI

DISCONTINUATION OF SERVICES

Section 6.1    Discontinuation of Services. Unless otherwise provided in the relevant Schedule for a particular Service, at any time after the Distribution Date, McDermott may, without cause and in accordance with the terms and conditions hereunder and the Master Separation Agreement, request the discontinuation of one or more specific Services by giving B&W at least 30 days’ prior written notice; provided, however, that any such discontinuation will not affect the amounts payable to B&W hereunder unless (and then only to the extent that) the charges for the discontinued Services have been separately identified in the applicable Schedule. McDermott shall be liable to B&W for all costs and expenses B&W or any member of the B&W Group remains obligated to pay in connection with any discontinued Service or Services, except in the case of a Service terminated by McDermott pursuant to clause (ii) of the first sentence of Section 7.1 hereof. The parties shall cooperate as reasonably required to effectuate an orderly and systematic transfer to the MII Group of all of the duties and obligations previously performed by B&W or a member of the B&W Group under this Agreement.

Section 6.2    Procedures Upon Discontinuation or Termination of Services. Upon the discontinuation or termination of a Service hereunder, this Agreement shall be of no further force and effect with respect to such Service, except as otherwise provided in a Schedule for a specific

8

Service and except as to obligations accrued prior to the date of discontinuation or termination; provided, however, that Articles I, IV, VIII, IX and XI and Section 2.5(c) of this Agreement shall survive such discontinuation or termination. Each party and the applicable member(s) of its respective Group shall, within 60 days after discontinuation or termination of a Service, deliver to the other party and the applicable member(s) of its respective Group originals of all books, records, contracts, receipts for deposits and all other papers or documents in its possession which pertain exclusively to the business of the other party and relate to such Service; provided that a party may retain copies of material provided to the other party pursuant to this Section 6.2 as it deems necessary or appropriate in connection with its financial reporting obligations or internal control practices and policies.

ARTICLE VII

DEFAULT

Section 7.1    Termination for Default. In the event (i) of a failure of McDermott to pay for Services in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, or (ii) any party shall default, in any material respect, in the due performance or observance by it of any of the other terms, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, then (1) if the non-defaulting party is B&W, B&W shall have the right, at its sole discretion, to immediately terminate the Service with respect to which the default occurred, and (2) if the non-defaulting party is McDermott, McDermott shall have the right, at its sole discretion, to immediately terminate the Service with respect to which the default occurred, in either case if the defaulting party has failed to cure the default within 30 days of receipt of the written notice of such default. McDermott’s right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Article VII and the rights set forth in Section 2.5 shall constitute McDermott’s sole and exclusive rights and remedies for a breach by B&W hereunder (including any breach caused by an Affiliate of B&W or other third party providing a Service hereunder).

ARTICLE VIII

INDEMNIFICATION AND WAIVER

Section 8.1    Waiver of Consequential Damages. NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR ANY EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, REMOTE OR SPECULATIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING IN RESPECT OF LOST PROFITS OR REVENUES), HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER OR NOT SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS SHALL NOT LIMIT EACH PARTY’S INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS FOR LIABILITIES TO THIRD PARTIES AS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE MASTER SEPARATION AGREEMENT OR ANY ANCILLARY AGREEMENT.

Section 8.2    Services Received. McDermott hereby acknowledges and agrees that:

(a) the Services to be provided hereunder are subject to and limited by the provisions of Section 2.5, Article VII and the other provisions hereof, including the limitation of remedies available to McDermott that restricts available remedies resulting from a Service not

9

provided in accordance with the terms hereof to non-payment and, in certain limited circumstances, the right to terminate this Agreement;

(b) the Services are being provided solely to facilitate the transition of McDermott as a separate company as a result of the Distribution, and B&W and its Affiliates do not provide any such Services to non-Affiliates;

(c) it is not the intent of B&W and the other members of the B&W Group to render, nor of McDermott and the other members of the MII Group to receive from B&W and the other members of the B&W Group, professional advice or opinions, whether with regard to tax, legal, treasury, finance, employment or other business and financial matters, or technical advice, whether with regard to information technology or other matters; McDermott shall not rely on, or construe, any Service rendered by or on behalf of B&W as such professional advice or opinions or technical advice; and McDermott shall seek all third-party professional advice and opinions or technical advice as it may desire or need, and in any event McDermott shall be responsible for and assume all risks associated with the Services, except to the limited extent set forth in Section 2.5 and Article VII;

(d) with respect to any software or documentation within the Services, McDermott shall use such software and documentation internally and for their intended purpose only, shall not distribute, publish, transfer, sublicense or in any manner make such software or documentation available to other organizations or persons, and shall not act as a service bureau or consultant in connection with such software; and

(e) a material inducement to B&W’s agreement to provide the Services is the limitation of liability and the release provided by McDermott in this Agreement.

ACCORDINGLY, EXCEPT WITH REGARD TO THE LIMITED REMEDIES EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, MCDERMOTT SHALL ASSUME ALL LIABILITY FOR AND SHALL FURTHER RELEASE, DEFEND, INDEMNIFY AND HOLD B&W, ANY MEMBER OF THE B&W GROUP AND THEIR RESPECTIVE EMPLOYEES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS AND AGENTS (ALL AS INDEMNIFIED PARTIES) FREE AND HARMLESS FROM AND AGAINST ALL LOSSES RESULTING FROM, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SERVICES, HOWSOEVER ARISING AND WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY THE NEGLIGENCE OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE OF B&W, ANY MEMBER OF THE B&W GROUP OR ANY THIRD PARTY SERVICE PROVIDER, OTHER THAN THOSE LOSSES CAUSED BY THE WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF B&W OR ANY MEMBER OF THE B&W GROUP.

Section 8.3    Express Negligence. THE INDEMNITY, RELEASES AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY IN THIS AGREEMENT (INCLUDING ARTICLES II AND VIII) ARE INTENDED TO BE ENFORCEABLE AGAINST THE PARTIES IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE EXPRESS TERMS AND SCOPE THEREOF NOTWITHSTANDING ANY EXPRESS NEGLIGENCE RULE OR ANY SIMILAR DIRECTIVE THAT WOULD PROHIBIT OR OTHERWISE LIMIT INDEMNITIES BECAUSE OF THE NEGLIGENCE OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE (WHETHER SOLE,

ARTICLE IX

(b) Each party hereto shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that only those of its personnel who are specifically authorized to have access to the Systems of the other party gain such access, and use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized access, use, destruction, alteration or loss of information contained therein, including notifying its personnel of the restrictions set forth in this Agreement and of the Security Regulations.

(c) If, at any time, the Availed Party determines that any of its personnel has sought to circumvent, or has circumvented, the Security Regulations, that any unauthorized Availed Party personnel has accessed the Systems, or that any of its personnel has engaged in activities that may lead to the unauthorized access, use, destruction, alteration or loss of data, information or software of the other party hereto, the Availed Party shall promptly terminate any such person’s access to the Systems and immediately notify the other party hereto. In addition, such other party hereto shall have the right to deny personnel of the Availed Party access to its Systems upon notice to the Availed Party in the event that the other party hereto reasonably believes that such personnel have engaged in any of the activities set forth above in this Section 9.2(c) or otherwise pose a security concern. The Availed Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the other party hereto in investigating any apparent unauthorized access to such other party’s Systems.

ARTICLE X

FORCE MAJEURE

Section 10.1    Performance Excused. Continued performance of a Service may be suspended immediately to the extent caused by any event or condition beyond the reasonable control of the party suspending such performance (and not involving any willful misconduct of such party), including acts of God, pandemics, floods, fire, earthquakes, labor or trade disturbances, strikes, war, acts of terrorism, civil commotion, electrical shortages or blackouts, breakdown or injury to computing facilities, compliance in good faith with any Law (whether or not it later proves to be invalid), unavailability of materials or bad weather (a “Force Majeure Event”). McDermott shall not be obligated to pay any amount for Services that it does not receive as a result of a Force Majeure Event (and the parties hereto shall negotiate reasonably to determine the amount applicable to such Services not received). In addition to the reduction of any amounts owed by McDermott hereunder, during the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event, to the extent the provision of any Service has been disrupted or reduced, during such disruption or reduction, (a) McDermott may replace any such affected Service by providing any such Service for itself or engaging one or more third parties to provide such Service at the expense of McDermott and (b) B&W shall cooperate with, provide such information to and take such other actions as may be reasonably required to assist such third parties to provide such substitute Service.

ARTICLE XI

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 11.1    Entire Agreement.

To the extent any provision of this Agreement conflicts with the provisions of the Master Separation Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to control with respect to the subject matter hereof.

Section 11.2    Binding Effect; No Third-Party Beneficiaries; Assignment. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns; and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any other person or entity any rights, benefits or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

Section 11.3    Amendment; Waivers. No change or amendment may be made to this Agreement except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of both of the parties hereto. Either party hereto may, at any time, (i) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other, (ii) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto, and (iii) waive compliance by the other with any of the agreements, covenants or conditions contained herein. Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party to be bound thereby. No failure or delay on the part of either party hereto in the exercise of any right hereunder shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of, or acquiescence in, any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right.

Section 11.4    Notices. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices, claims, certificates, requests, demands and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to be duly given (i) when personally delivered or (ii) if mailed by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, on the date the return receipt is executed or the letter is refused by the addressee or its agent or (iii) if sent by overnight courier which delivers only upon the signed receipt of the addressee, on the date the receipt acknowledgment is executed or refused by the addressee or its agent or (iv) if sent by facsimile or electronic mail, on the date confirmation of transmission is received (provided that a copy of any notice delivered pursuant to this clause (iv) shall also be sent pursuant to clause (i), (ii) or (iii)), addressed to the attention of the addressee’s General Counsel at the address of its principal executive office or to such other address or facsimile number for a party hereto as it shall have specified by like notice.

Section 11.5    Counterparts. This Agreement, including the Schedules hereto and the other documents referred to herein, may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Section 11.6    Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement or the Schedules attached hereto is determined by a nonappealable decision by a court, administrative agency or arbitrator to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to either party hereto. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the court, administrative agency or arbitrator shall interpret this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the fullest extent possible. If any sentence in this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.

Section 11.7    Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the substantive laws of the State of Texas, without regard to any conflicts of law provisions thereof that would result in the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

Section 11.11    Construction. This Agreement shall be construed as if jointly drafted by the parties hereto and no rule of construction or strict interpretation shall be applied against either party. In this Agreement, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, words used in the singular include the plural and words used in the plural include the singular; and if a word or phrase is defined in this Agreement, its other grammatical forms, as used in this Agreement, shall have a corresponding meaning. Whenever the context requires, the gender of all words used in this Agreement includes the masculine, feminine and the neuter. Unless the context otherwise requires, the words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation,” and the word “or” shall have the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “and/or.” The words “shall” and “will” are used interchangeably in this Agreement and have the same meaning. Relative to the determination of any period of time hereunder, “from” means “from and including,” “to” means “to but excluding” and “through” means “through and including.” All references herein to a specific time of day in this Agreement shall be based upon Central Standard Time or Central Daylight Savings Time, as applicable, on the date in question. Whenever this Agreement refers to a number of days, such number shall refer to calendar days unless Business Days are specified. Any reference herein to any Article, Section or Schedule means such Article or Section of, or such Schedule to, this Agreement, as the case may be, and references in any Section or definition to any clause means such clause of such Section or definition.

(a) B&W Assumption. Notwithstanding anything in any Existing Insurance Agreement or Existing Policy to the contrary, each MII Entity that is a signatory hereto hereby transfers and assigns, and B&W does hereby assume, effective as of the Assumption Time, the B&W Obligations; and B&W hereby agrees to observe, pay, perform, satisfy, fulfill and discharge any and all now existing and hereafter arising duties, terms, provisions, covenants, obligations and liabilities of any MII Entity under the Existing Policies and Existing Insurance Agreements in respect of the B&W Obligations (the “B&W Assumption”). The Company, on its own behalf and on behalf of the ACE Affiliates, hereby consents to, and agrees to give full force and effect to, the B&W Assumption. From and after the Assumption Time, the Company (and/or the applicable ACE Affiliate): (i) may enforce its rights under the Existing Policies and the Existing Insurance Agreements in respect of the B&W Obligations against B&W to the same extent such Person could, prior to the B&W Assumption, enforce such rights against the applicable MII Entity and (ii) releases each MII Entity from its obligation to observe, pay, perform, satisfy, fulfill or discharge any such B&W Obligations.

(b) MII Retained Obligations. MII hereby agrees to continue to observe, pay, perform, satisfy, fulfill and discharge any and all of its now existing and hereafter arising Obligations (other than B&W Obligations) (the “MII Retained Obligations”) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the applicable Existing Policy and Existing Insurance Agreement.

(c) MII Assumption. Notwithstanding anything in any Existing Insurance Agreement or Existing Policy to the contrary, each B&W Entity that is a signatory hereto hereby transfers and assigns, and MII does hereby assume, effective as of the Assumption Time, the MII Obligations; and MII hereby agrees to observe, pay, perform, satisfy, fulfill and discharge any and all now existing and hereafter arising duties, terms, provisions, covenants, obligations and liabilities of any B&W Entity under the Existing Policies and Existing Insurance Agreements in respect of the MII Obligations (the “MII Assumption”).

From and after the Assumption Time, the Company (and/or the applicable ACE Affiliate): (i) may enforce its rights under the Existing Policies and the Existing Insurance Agreements

4

in respect of the MII Obligations against MII to the same extent such Person could, prior to the MII Assumption, enforce such rights against the applicable B&W Entity and (ii) releases each B&W Entity from its obligation to observe, pay, perform, satisfy, fulfill or discharge any such MII Obligations.

(d) B&W Retained Obligations.

Such obligations shall continue to be performed to the extent and in the manner set forth in the applicable Existing Policy by the Company and/or by the ACE Affiliates, as the case may be, for the benefit of such Persons who are entitled to such performance under the applicable Existing Policy, provided, however, that to the extent that such performance gives rise to Obligations, the responsibility for such Obligations shall be governed by this Agreement.

(f) Existing ESIS Agreements. The Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enter into an agreement with ESIS promptly after the date hereof pursuant to which ESIS shall acknowledge and consent to the B&W Assumption and the MII Assumption and the other provisions of this Agreement with respect to determining any MII Obligations, MII Retained Obligations, B&W Obligations or B&W Retained Obligations (or allocations thereof) in respect of any Existing ESIS Agreement.

3. Joinder. As of the Effective Date, (a) to the extent that B&W is not already a party thereto and an Existing Insurance Agreement contains any B&W Obligations, each Existing Insurance Agreement is hereby deemed amended to add B&W as an “Insured” or other such obligor thereunder solely to the extent necessary to give effect to the B&W Assumption and (b) to the extent that MII is not already a party thereto and an Existing Insurance Agreement contains any MII Obligations, each Existing Insurance Agreement is hereby deemed amended to add MII as an “Insured” or other such obligor thereunder solely to the extent necessary to give effect to the MII Assumption.

4. Allocation.

(i) MII shall continue to pay or perform any and all Obligations constituting MII Retained Obligations pursuant to and in the manner set forth in the applicable Existing Policy and the applicable Existing Insurance Agreement giving rise to such Obligations and (ii) B&W shall continue to pay or perform any and all Obligations constituting B&W Retained Obligations pursuant to and in the manner set forth in the applicable Existing Policy and the applicable Existing Insurance Agreement giving rise to such Obligations; provided, however, that in each case, MII and B&W shall provide to the Company on a timely basis such information as the Company may request so that the Company may determine whether the Obligations constitute MII Retained Obligations or B&W Retained Obligations. The Company shall determine whether such Obligations constitute MII Retained Obligations or B&W Retained Obligations (the “Company Designation”) and shall notify the applicable Party of any such Company Designation. With respect to the Obligations arising out of or relating to the Foreign Policies or the Foreign Insurance Agreements, if the Company is unable to make a determination as to whether any such Obligations constitute MII Retained Obligations or B&W Retained Obligations based upon the information available to the Company, the Company will deem the Company Designation for such Obligations to be MII Retained Obligations.

Agreement giving rise to such MII Retained Obligation; provided, however, that such payment shall not be construed as prejudicial to either Party in any dispute between MII and B&W with respect to any such Company Designation.

(iii) B&W shall keep the B&W LOC in place (or other collateral acceptable to the Company) as security for payment of the B&W Retained Obligations and the B&W Assumed Obligations, until the Company determines in its sole discretion that there is no longer any need for such collateral. If there shall be a material deterioration in the financial condition of the bank or other financial institution which has issued the B&W LOC, the Company shall have the right to require B&W to replace the B&W LOC with a new letter of credit with similar terms issued by a bank or other financial institution then acceptable to the Company.

(iv) The Company shall have the right to draw against the B&W LOC and/or other collateral in each instance where any portion of the B&W Retained Obligations or the B&W Assumed Obligations for any reason is not fulfilled in the manner and within the time periods required under this Agreement or the Existing Policies or Existing Insurance Agreements giving rise thereto.

Each of MII and B&W hereby grant to the Company, for its benefit and the benefit of the ACE Affiliates, a continuing first priority security interest in and lien on all of their respective right, title and interest, if any, in and to the Cash Collateral and all proceeds thereof as security for their now existing and hereafter arising Obligations to the Company or such ACE Affiliates. The Company shall hold the Cash Collateral in accordance with the terms of the applicable Existing Insurance Agreement pursuant to which such Cash Collateral was provided to the Company or the applicable ACE Affiliate. The Company shall have the sole and exclusive right, and is hereby authorized, to use the Cash Collateral to pay any and all Obligations of MII and/or B&W in accordance with the Company Designation in accordance with the terms of the applicable Existing Insurance Agreement and this Agreement.

8. Billing. On and after the Effective Date, the Company (or any third party administrator acting on behalf of the Company in respect of an Existing Policy) will, in each case in accordance with the billing procedures set forth in the applicable Existing Policy and Existing Insurance Agreement:

(a) bill MII directly for the MII Retained Obligations and the MII Assumed Obligations; and

(b) bill B&W directly for the B&W Retained Obligations and the B&W Assumed Obligations.

9. Amendments. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be amended, changed, waived, discharged or terminated except by a written instrument signed by the Company, B&W, MII and each other Party, if any, against whom enforcement of such amendment, change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought.

10. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any right or obligation hereunder may be assigned or conveyed by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

11. [Intentionally Omitted].

12. No Waiver. The failure or refusal by any Party to exercise any rights granted hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of such rights or preclude the subsequent exercise thereof, and no oral communication shall be asserted as a waiver of any such rights hereunder unless such communication shall be confirmed in a writing plainly expressing an intent to waive such rights and signed by the Party against whom such waiver is asserted.

13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts each of which when so executed and delivered shall constitute an original, but such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same agreement. The exchange of copies of this Agreement and of signature pages by facsimile transmission or by electronic mail shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Agreement as to the Parties and may be used in lieu of the original Agreement for all purposes. Signatures of the Parties and other Persons signatory hereto transmitted by facsimile or by electronic mail shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes.

14. No Third Party Beneficiary. This Agreement shall not be deemed to give any right or remedy to any third party whatsoever unless otherwise specifically granted hereunder.

17. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania without regard to those provisions concerning conflicts of laws that would result in the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

18. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Existing Policies and Existing Insurance Agreements, constitute the entire agreement among all of the Parties and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

19. Dispute Resolution. If a dispute between either MII or B&W, on the one hand, and the Company or any ACE Affiliate, on the other hand, involves rights or obligations arising under this Agreement, or any of the Existing Policies or Existing Insurance Agreements, the arbitration provisions in the most recent Existing Insurance Agreement referenced in Exhibit II shall govern the resolution of the entire dispute in all respects. In any such arbitration brought by or against MII or B&W, the other of B&W or MII, as applicable, shall have right to associate effectively in the defense and/or prosecution of such arbitration.

20. Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement or the Exhibits attached hereto is determined by a nonappealable decision by a court, administrative agency or arbitrator to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the court, administrative agency or arbitrator shall interpret this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the fullest extent possible. If any sentence in this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.

21. Rules of Construction. The definitions of terms used herein shall apply equally to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The words “include”, “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation”. The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall”. Unless the context requires otherwise (a) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document herein shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, (b) any reference herein to any law shall be construed as referring to such law as amended, modified, codified or reenacted, in whole or in part, and in effect from time to time, (c) any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns (subject to the restrictions contained herein), (d) the words “herein”, “hereof” and “hereunder”, and words of similar import, shall be construed to refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof, (e) with respect to the determination of any time period, the word “from” means “from and including” and the word “to” means “to and including” and (f) any reference herein to Articles, Sections and Exhibits shall be construed to refer to Articles and Sections of, and Exhibits to, this Agreement. No provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted or construed against any Person solely because such Person or its legal representative drafted such provision.

2. Assumption and Novation.

(a) Boudin Assumption and Novation. Notwithstanding anything in any Transferable Creole Reinsurance Agreement to the contrary, and effective as of the Assumption Time, Creole hereby transfers and assigns, and Boudin hereby assumes by novation, so much of each Transferable Creole Reinsurance Agreement as reinsures any Company MII Obligation. In connection with such transfer, assignment, and novation:

(i) Boudin hereby agrees to observe, pay, perform, satisfy, fulfill and discharge, to the extent and in the manner required under the applicable Transferable Creole Reinsurance Agreement, any and all now existing and hereafter arising duties, terms, provisions, covenants, obligations and liabilities of Creole under the Transferable Creole Reinsurance Agreement with respect to the Company MII Obligations insofar as transferred above (the “Boudin Assumption and Novation”); and

(ii) The Company and each ACE Affiliate hereby consent to, and agree to give full force and effect to, the Boudin Assumption and Novation. From and after the Assumption Time, Boudin and not Creole shall be treated as the Company’s (or applicable ACE Affiliate’s) contractual counterparty with respect the contracts and mutual rights and obligations subject to the Boudin Assumption and Novation. Without limitation, the Company and each ACE Affiliate, as applicable:

a may enforce against Boudin its rights with respect to the Company MII Obligations under the Transferable Creole Reinsurance Agreements to the same extent such Person could, prior to the Boudin Assumption and Novation, enforce such rights against Creole, and

b shall perform for the benefit of Boudin any obligation with respect to the Company MII Obligations under the Transferable Creole Reinsurance Agreements to the same extent such Person was obligated, prior to the Boudin Assumption and Novation, to perform such obligations for the benefit of Creole, and

c releases Creole from its obligation to observe, pay, perform, satisfy, fulfill or discharge any obligations under any Transferable Creole Reinsurance Agreements with respect to any Company MII Obligation.

(b) No Transfer or Novation of Creole Obligations arising from B&W Operations. The Wholly Retained Creole Reinsurance Agreements are not novated or otherwise affected by the Boudin Assumption

4

and Novation. The Transferable Creole Reinsurance Agreements are novated to Boudin as set forth above only to the extent that they reinsure Company MII Obligations. To the extent that the Transferable Creole Reinsurance Agreements reinsure Company B&W Obligations, the Parties acknowledge that Creole and not Boudin shall continue to observe, pay, perform, satisfy, fulfill and discharge any and all now existing and hereafter arising duties, terms, provisions, covenants, obligations and liabilities of the reinsurer under the Transferable Creole Reinsurance Agreements.

(c) Creole Assumption and Novation. Notwithstanding anything in any Transferable Boudin Reinsurance Agreement to the contrary, and effective as of the Assumption Time, Boudin hereby transfers and assigns, and Creole hereby assumes by novation so much of each Transferable Boudin Reinsurance Agreement as reinsures any Company B&W Obligation. In connection with such transfer and assignment,

(i) Creole hereby agrees to observe, pay, perform, satisfy, fulfill and discharge, to the extent and in the manner required under the applicable Transferable Boudin Reinsurance Agreement, any and all now existing and hereafter arising duties, terms, provisions, covenants, obligations and liabilities of Boudin under the Transferable Boudin Reinsurance Agreements with respect to the Company B&W Obligations insofar as transferred above (the “Creole Assumption and Novation”); and

(ii) The Company and each ACE Affiliate hereby consent to, and agree to give full force and effect to, the Creole Assumption and Novation. From and after the Assumption Time, Creole and not Boudin shall be treated as the Company’s (or applicable ACE Affiliate’s) contractual counterparty with respect the contracts and mutual rights and obligations subject to the Creole Assumption and Novation. Without limitation, the Company and each ACE Affiliate, as applicable:

a may enforce against Creole its rights under the Transferable Boudin Reinsurance Agreements to the same extent such Person could, prior to the Creole Assumption and Novation, enforce such rights against Boudin, and

b shall perform for the benefit of Creole any obligation under the Transferable Boudin Reinsurance Agreements to the same extent such Person was obligated, prior to the Creole Assumption and Novation, to perform such obligations for the benefit of Boudin, and

c releases Boudin from its obligation to observe, pay, perform, satisfy, fulfill or discharge any obligations under any Transferable Boudin Reinsurance Agreements with respect to any Company B&W Obligation.

(d) No Transfer or Novation of Boudin Obligations arising from MII Operations. The Wholly Retained Boudin Reinsurance Agreements are not novated or otherwise affected by the Creole Assumption and Novation. The Transferable Boudin Reinsurance Agreements are novated to Creole as set forth above only to the extent that they reinsure Company B&W Obligations. To the extent that the Transferable Boudin Reinsurance Agreements reinsure Company MII Obligations, the Parties acknowledge that Boudin and not Creole shall continue to observe, pay, perform, satisfy, fulfill and discharge any and all now existing and hereafter arising duties, terms, provisions, covenants, obligations and liabilities of the reinsurer under the Transferable Boudin Reinsurance Agreements.

(e) No Effect on Aggregate Limits of Liability. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that the aggregate liability of Creole and Boudin, taken together, under the Existing Reinsurance Agreements (or any of them) is not intended to be, and shall be deemed not to be, increased by implementation of this Agreement. In particular, and without limitation, to the extent that any Transferable Creole Reinsurance Agreement (or Transferable Boudin Reinsurance Agreement) contains an aggregate limit of liability, that aggregate limit of liability shall, after the Assumption Time, apply as a single, joint aggregate limit of liability as between (i) the resulting Novated Reinsurance Agreement and (ii) the portions of the Transferable Creole Reinsurance Agreement (or Transferable Boudin Reinsurance Agreement) that are retained pursuant to Section 2(b) (or Section 2(d)) above. Neither Creole or Boudin shall have any further liability under a Novated Reinsurance Agreement upon actual exhaustion by payment of the single, joint aggregate limit of liability thereunder; provided, however, that each of Creole and Boudin agree that

5

the Company may determine the order in which any such single, joint aggregate limit of liability may be payable by each of them under such Novated Reinsurance Agreement, and provided further that (x) neither Creole or Boudin may refuse to pay any amount due to the Company on the basis of any claim or contention that in determining the order in which such limits are to be paid thereunder, the Company has not acted in good faith or has acted improperly, and (y) neither Creole nor Boudin may assert any such claim or contention as a defense to liability or payment or otherwise.

3. Collateral.

(a) Boudin LOC.

(i) Boudin (including for purposes of this Section 3, and if MII and Boudin so elect, MII on Boudin’s behalf) will, within fifteen (15) days after the Effective Date, provide to the Company, as beneficiary thereof, an irrevocable letter of credit (the “Boudin LOC”) in an amount of $696.00 (which amount shall be less than the aggregate amount of the Existing Collateral), issued in a form and by a bank or other financial institution, in each case acceptable to the Company; and/or such other forms of collateral as the Company may permit in writing from time to time. The Boudin LOC shall secure the Go-Forward Boudin Obligations.

(ii) The Boudin LOC shall be “evergreen,” meaning that it shall provide by its terms that it will be renewed automatically each year for an additional year unless written notice of non-renewal is received by the Company at least sixty (60) days prior to the Boudin LOC’s anniversary date. If the Company permits Boudin to provide collateral in a form other than the Boudin LOC, Boudin shall provide such collateral in an amount and form acceptable to the Company.

(iii) Boudin shall continue to provide the Boudin LOC (or other collateral acceptable to the Company) as security for payment of the Go-Forward Boudin Obligations, until the Company determines that there is no longer any need for such collateral. If there shall be a material deterioration in the financial condition of the bank or other financial institution which has issued the Boudin LOC, the Company shall have the right to require Boudin to replace the Boudin LOC with a new letter of credit with similar terms issued by a bank or other financial institution then acceptable to the Company.

(iv) The Company shall have the right to draw against the Boudin LOC and/or other collateral solely (a) in accordance with the terms of the applicable Wholly Retained Boudin Reinsurance Agreement or Novated-to-Boudin Reinsurance Agreement, as the case may be, and/or as required and permitted by the laws and regulations of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, or (b) in the event that a notice of nonrenewal is received pursuant to the evergreen clause.

(v) Annually, the Company shall review and redetermine the amount of the Go-Forward Boudin Obligations and the amount of collateral security required pursuant to this Agreement. At such time, MII will provide its most recent audited financial statements, interim financial statements, and any other financial information reasonably requested by the Company for the purpose of evaluating the financial condition of MII. MII will provide any needed increases in the amount of the Boudin LOC (and/or other collateral if acceptable to the Company) within thirty (30) days of the Company’s written request for any additional required amount of the Boudin LOC. The Company will effect any decreases in the amount of the Boudin LOC (and/or other collateral) promptly, provided that Boudin is not in breach of any of its obligations under this Agreement or the Existing Reinsurance Agreements as transferred and novated hereunder and MII is not in breach of any of its obligations to the Company under the ALAA.

(b) Creole LOC.

(i) Creole (including for purposes of this Section 3, and if B&W and Creole so elect, B&W on Creole’s behalf) will, within fifteen (15) days after the Effective Date, provide to the Company, as beneficiary thereof, an irrevocable letter of credit (the “Creole LOC”) in an amount of $4,171,230.00 (which amount shall be less than the aggregate amount of the Existing Collateral), issued in a form and

6

by a bank or other financial institution, in each case acceptable to the Company; and/or such other forms of collateral as the Company may permit in writing from time to time. The Creole LOC shall secure the Go-Forward Creole Obligations.

(ii) The Creole LOC shall be “evergreen,” meaning that it shall provide by its terms that it will be renewed automatically each year for an additional year unless written notice of non-renewal is received by the Company at least sixty (60) days prior to the Creole LOC’s anniversary date. If the Company permits Creole to provide collateral in a form other than the Creole LOC, Creole shall provide such collateral in an amount and form acceptable to the Company.

(iii) Creole shall continue to provide the Creole LOC (or other collateral acceptable to the Company) as security for payment of the Go-Forward Creole Obligations, until the Company determines that there is no longer any need for such collateral. If there shall be a material deterioration in the financial condition of the bank or other financial institution which has issued the Creole LOC, the Company shall have the right to require Creole to replace the Creole LOC with a new letter of credit with similar terms issued by a bank or other financial institution then acceptable to the Company.

(iv) The Company shall have the right to draw against the Creole LOC and/or other collateral solely (a) in accordance with the terms of the applicable Wholly Retained Creole Reinsurance Agreement or Novated-to-Creole Reinsurance Agreement, as the case may be, and/or as required and permitted by the laws and regulations of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, or (b) in the event that a notice of nonrenewal is received pursuant to the evergreen clause.

(v) Annually, the Company shall review and redetermine the amount of the Go-Forward Creole Obligations and the amount of collateral security required pursuant to this Agreement. At such time, B&W will provide its most recent audited financial statements, interim financial statements, and any other financial information reasonably requested by the Company for the purpose of evaluating the financial condition of B&W. B&W will provide any needed increases in the amount of the Creole LOC (and/or other collateral if acceptable to the Company) within thirty (30) days of the Company’s written request for any additional required amount of the Creole LOC. The Company will effect any decreases in the amount of the Creole LOC (and/or other collateral) promptly, provided that Creole is not in breach of any of its obligations under this Agreement or the Existing Reinsurance Agreements as transferred and novated hereunder and B&W is not in breach of any of its obligations to the Company under the ALAA.

(c) Existing Security Agreements; Substituted Collateral. Notwithstanding anything in any Existing Reinsurance Agreement or any Existing Security Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall release the Existing Collateral (including, without limitation, providing the necessary directions to issuing banks of letters of credit, trustees of reinsurance trusts, and/or similar third parties) upon receipt of the Substituted Collateral as set forth in Section 3(a)(i) and 3(b)(i), and the Parties shall take all actions and execute any documents necessary to terminate the Existing Security Agreements.

(d) Adjustments of Funds Withheld. To the extent that the Company has retained funds of Creole or Boudin as funds withheld under any Existing Reinsurance Agreement (including, without limitation, by allocating reinsurance premium or other funds of the reinsurers to claim payment funds held by ESIS), such funds shall continue to be maintained following the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. If the Company desires to effect a one-time reallocation of such funds withheld as between Creole and Boudin as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, it shall provide notice of such reallocation as promptly as possible after the Assumption Time, but in any event on or prior to October 1, 2010, and Creole and Boudin shall accept the Company’s determination of the amount of such reallocation.

4. Existing Collateral. The Substituted Collateral required to be provided by Creole and Boudin hereunder shall, except to the extent provided otherwise in this Agreement, be subject to all of the terms and conditions applicable to the Existing Collateral pursuant to the Existing Reinsurance Agreements to the same extent that such terms and conditions applied to the Existing Collateral thereunder.

7

5. Allocation.

(a) Company Designations. The Company’s determination as to whether an obligation is a Go-Forward Boudin Obligation or a Go-Forward Creole Obligation (a “Company Designation”) shall be binding on Creole and Boudin, and they shall not delay, or make any deduction with respect to, their payment or other response to such obligation on account of any disagreement with such determination, provided, however, that such payment or other response shall not be construed as prejudicial to either Party in any dispute between Creole and Boudin with respect to any such Company Designation.

(b) Disputes. Any dispute or disagreement between Creole and Boudin with respect to the correctness of a Company Designation shall be resolved pursuant to Article V of the Master Separation Agreement by MII on behalf of Boudin and B&W on behalf of Creole; provided, that (i) the Company will not be made a party to any arbitration proceeding arising from such dispute or disagreement, but may be called as a witness; (ii) any reasonable costs incurred by the Company in respect of any such arbitration proceeding will be fully reimbursed to the Company promptly following receipt of a reimbursement demand from the Company; (iii) under no circumstances will MII or B&W or Creole or Boudin, as a result of such arbitration proceeding, require the Company to return any amount received by the Company pursuant to a prior Company Designation, whether such amount was received as a result of the Company’s draw against security posted for its benefit or otherwise, and (iv) the Company shall comply with the allocation or other resolution of such dispute.

6. Billing. On and after the Effective Date, the Company will (in each case in accordance with the billing procedures set forth in the applicable Existing Reinsurance Agreement)

(a) bill Creole directly for such of the Go-Forward Creole Obligations as are then due and payable, and provide Creole with appropriate reports and accounting with respect to such obligations; and

(b) bill Boudin directly for such of the Go-Forward Boudin Obligations as are then due and payable, and provide Boudin with appropriate reports and accounting with respect to such obligations.

7. Amendments. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be amended, changed, waived, discharged or terminated except by a written instrument signed by each Party.

8. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any right or obligation hereunder may be assigned or conveyed by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

9. No Waiver. The failure or refusal by any Party to exercise any rights granted hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of such rights or preclude the subsequent exercise thereof, and no oral communication shall be asserted as a waiver of any such rights hereunder unless such communication shall be confirmed in a writing plainly expressing an intent to waive such rights and signed by the Party against whom such waiver is asserted.

10. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts each of which when so executed and delivered shall constitute an original, but such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same agreement. The exchange of copies of this Agreement and of signature pages by facsimile transmission shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Agreement as to the Parties and may be used in lieu of the original Agreement for all purposes. Signatures of the Parties and other Persons signatory hereto transmitted by facsimile shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes.

11. No Third Party Beneficiary. This Agreement shall not be deemed to give any right or remedy to any third party whatsoever unless otherwise specifically granted hereunder.

8

12. Parties’ Representations. As of the Effective Date, each of the Parties expressly represents on its own behalf: (a) it is an entity in good standing in its jurisdiction of organization; (b) it has all requisite corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement, and to perform its obligations hereunder; (c) the execution and delivery by it of this Agreement, and the performance by it of its obligations under this Agreement, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action; (d) this Agreement, when duly executed and delivered by it, and subject to the due execution and delivery hereof by the other Parties, will be a valid and binding obligation of it, enforceable against it, its successors and permitted assigns, in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and general equity principles; (e) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby in accordance with the respective terms and conditions hereof will not (i) violate any provision of its Organizational Documents, (ii) violate any applicable order, judgment, injunction, award or decree of any court, arbitrator or governmental or regulatory body against it, or binding upon it, or any agreement with, or condition imposed by, any governmental or regulatory body, foreign or domestic, binding upon it as of the date hereof, or (iii) violate any agreement, contract, obligation, promise or undertaking that is legally binding and to which it is a party or by which it is bound; and (f) the signatory hereto on behalf of it is duly authorized and legally empowered to enter into this Agreement on its behalf.

13. Notices. Any and all notices, requests, approvals, authorizations, consents, instructions, designations and other communications that are required or permitted to be given pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and may be given either by personal delivery, first class prepaid post (airmail if to another country) or by internationally recognized overnight delivery service to the following address, or to such other address and recipient as such Party may have notified in accordance with the terms of this section as being its address or recipient for notification for the purposes of this Agreement:

Any notice or communication to any Person shall be deemed to be received by that Person:

(A) upon personal delivery; or

(B) upon receipt if sent by mail or courier.

14. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania without regard to those provisions concerning conflicts of laws that would result in the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

15. Entire Agreement. THIS AGREEMENT CONSTITUTES THE ENTIRE AGREEMENT AMONG ALL OF THE PARTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE TRANSFERS, ASSUMPTIONS, AND NOVATIONS DESCRIBED HEREIN AND SUPERSEDES ALL OTHER PRIOR AGREEMENTS AND UNDERSTANDINGS, BOTH WRITTEN AND ORAL, WITH RESPECT TO SUCH TRANSFERS, ASSUMPTIONS, AND NOVATIONS. SOLELY FOR INTERPRETATION PURPOSES, THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS AGREEMENT IS INTENDED TO BE READ TOGETHER WITH THE ALAA.

16. Dispute Resolution.

(a) For dispute resolution purposes as between Creole and Boudin, and all disputes between Creole and Boudin arising out of this Agreement, including without limitation as to whether a given obligation is a Go-Forward Creole Obligation or a Go-Forward Boudin Obligation, shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Master Separation Agreement (provided, however, that until the Master Separation Agreement is executed and delivered by all parties thereto, the reference to such agreement in this Section 16(a) shall be deemed to refer to the draft thereof dated as of April 28, 2010).

11

(b) As between the Company on the one hand and Creole and/or Boudin, on the other hand, all disputes arising hereunder shall be resolved in accordance with the arbitration provisions of the most recent Existing Reinsurance Agreement. In any such arbitration, the entity named in the applicable Company Designation shall be the party formally opposed to the Company, but the other of Boudin or Creole shall have right to associate effectively in the defense and/or prosecution of such arbitration.

17. Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement or the Exhibits attached hereto is determined by a nonappealable decision by a court, administrative agency or arbitrator to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the court, administrative agency or arbitrator shall interpret this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the fullest extent possible. If any sentence in this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.

18. Rules of Construction. The definitions of terms used herein shall apply equally to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The words “include”, “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation”. The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall”. Unless the context requires otherwise (a) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document herein shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, (b) any reference herein to any law shall be construed as referring to such law as amended, modified, codified or reenacted, in whole or in part, and in effect from time to time, (c) any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns (subject to the restrictions contained herein), (d) the words “herein”, “hereof” and “hereunder”, and words of similar import, shall be construed to refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof, (e) with respect to the determination of any time period, the word “from” means “from and including” and the word “to” means “to and including” and (f) any reference herein to Articles, Sections and Exhibits shall be construed to refer to Articles and Sections of, and Exhibits to, this Agreement. No provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted or construed against any Person solely because such Person or its legal representative drafted such provision.

(b) No Transfer or Novation of Creole Obligations to B&W Entities. Except to the extent (which the Parties do not expect) that the Wholly Retained Creole Policies are determined to cover Insured MII Obligations notwithstanding the absence of any MII Entity as an Insured thereunder, the Wholly Retained Creole Policies are not novated or otherwise affected by the Boudin Assumption and Novation. The Transferable Creole Policies are novated to Boudin as set forth above only to the extent that one or more MII Entities is an insured thereunder. To the extent that B&W Entities are insureds under the Transferable Creole Policies, the Parties acknowledge that Creole and not Boudin shall continue to observe, pay, perform, satisfy, fulfill and discharge any and all now existing and hereafter arising duties, terms, provisions, covenants, obligations and liabilities of the Insurer under the Transferable Creole Policies. The Parties further acknowledge that Creole and not Boudin shall continue to observe, pay, perform, satisfy, fulfill and discharge any and all now existing and hereafter arising duties, terms, provisions, covenants, obligations and liabilities of the Insurer with respect to the Insured B&W Obligations.

(c) Creole Assumption and Novation. Notwithstanding anything in any Transferable Boudin Policy to the contrary, and effective as of the Assumption Time, Boudin hereby transfers and assigns, and Creole hereby assumes by novation, (x) so much of each Transferable Boudin Policy as relates to B&W or any

4

B&W Affiliate as an Insured thereunder; and (y) any and all obligations of Boudin under any of the Existing Policies that arise from Insured B&W Obligations. In connection with and in implementation of such transfer, assignment, and novation:

(i) Creole hereby agrees to observe, pay, perform, satisfy, fulfill and discharge any and all now existing and hereafter arising duties, terms, provisions, covenants, obligations and liabilities of Boudin under the Transferable Boudin Policies and with respect to the Insured B&W Obligations, both insofar as transferred above (the “Creole Assumption and Novation”); and

(ii) Each B&W Entity that is a signatory hereto hereby consents to, and agrees to give full force and effect to, the Creole Assumption and Novation. From and after the Assumption Time, Creole and not Boudin shall be treated as the B&W Entity’s contractual counterparty with respect the contracts and mutual rights and obligations subject to the Creole Assumption and Novation. Without limitation, each B&W Entity:

a may enforce against Creole its rights under the Transferable Boudin Policies or with respect to any Insured B&W Obligation to the same extent such Person could, prior to the Creole Assumption and Novation, enforce such rights against Boudin, and

b shall perform for the benefit of Creole any obligation under the Transferable Boudin Policies or with respect to any Insured B&W Obligation to the same extent such Person was obligated, prior to the Creole Assumption and Novation, to perform such obligations for the benefit of Boudin, and

c releases Boudin from its obligation to observe, pay, perform, satisfy, fulfill or discharge any obligations under any Transferable Boudin Policy or with respect to any Insured B&W Obligation.

(iii) With respect to each Transferable Boudin Policy that is subject to the Creole Assumption and Novation, the aggregate of rights, duties, and obligations set forth in subsections (c)(i) and (c)(ii) above shall be treated as the Transferred Creole Policy relating to such Transferable Boudin Policy.

(d) No Transfer or Novation of Boudin Obligations to MII Entities. Except to the extent (which the Parties do not expect) that the Wholly Retained Boudin Policies are determined to cover Insured B&W Obligations notwithstanding the absence of any B&W Entity as an Insured thereunder, the Wholly Retained Boudin Policies are not novated or otherwise affected by the Creole Assumption and Novation. The Transferable Boudin Policies are novated to Creole as set forth above only to the extent that one or more B&W Entities is an insured thereunder. To the extent that MII Entities are insureds under the Transferable Boudin Policies, the Parties acknowledge that Boudin and not Creole shall continue to observe, pay, perform, satisfy, fulfill and discharge any and all now existing and hereafter arising duties, terms, provisions, covenants, obligations and liabilities of the Insurer under the Transferable Boudin Policies. The Parties further acknowledge that Boudin and not Creole shall continue to observe, pay, perform, satisfy, fulfill and discharge any and all now existing and hereafter arising duties, terms, provisions, covenants, obligations and liabilities of the Insurer with respect to the Insured MII Obligations.

(e) Commutation and Release of Mutual Reinsurance by Boudin and Creole. Effective at the Assumption Time, Creole and Boudin do hereby commute any and all contracts of reinsurance by which one of them reinsured the other (the “Inter-Captive Reinsurance Agreements”). In furtherance of such commutation, and also effective at the Assumption Time, Creole and Boudin do hereby fully release and discharge one another from and against any past, present, or future liabilities or obligations, known or unknown, arising under the Inter-Captive Reinsurance Agreements.

(f) No Effect on Aggregate Limits of Liability. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that the aggregate liability of Creole and Boudin, taken together, is not intended to be, and shall be deemed not to be, increased by implementation of this Agreement. In particular, and without limitation, to the extent that any Transferable Creole Policy (or Transferable Boudin Policy) contains an aggregate limit of liability,

5

that aggregate limit of liability shall, after the Assumption Time, apply as a single, joint aggregate limit of liability as between (i) the resulting Transferred Boudin Policy (or Transferred Creole Policy) and (ii) the portions of the Transferable Creole Policy (or Transferable Boudin Policy) that are retained pursuant to Section 2(b) (or Section 2(d)) above. Disputes as to priority of claims and/or allocation of the single, joint aggregate limit of liability shall be resolved pursuant to Section 12 hereof.

3. Amendments. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be amended, changed, waived, discharged or terminated except by a written instrument signed by each Party.

4. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any right or obligation hereunder may be assigned or conveyed by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

5. No Waiver. The failure or refusal by any Party to exercise any rights granted hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of such rights or preclude the subsequent exercise thereof, and no oral communication shall be asserted as a waiver of any such rights hereunder unless such communication shall be confirmed in a writing plainly expressing an intent to waive such rights and signed by the Party against whom such waiver is asserted.

6. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts each of which when so executed and delivered shall constitute an original, but such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same agreement. The exchange of copies of this Agreement and of signature pages by facsimile transmission shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Agreement as to the Parties and may be used in lieu of the original Agreement for all purposes. Signatures of the Parties and other Persons signatory hereto transmitted by facsimile shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes.

7. No Third Party Beneficiary. This Agreement shall not be deemed to give any right or remedy to any third party whatsoever unless otherwise specifically granted hereunder.

8. Parties’ Representations. As of the Effective Date, each of the Parties expressly represents on its own behalf: (a) it is an entity in good standing in its jurisdiction of organization; (b) it has all requisite corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement, and to perform its obligations hereunder; (c) the execution and delivery by it of this Agreement, and the performance by it of its obligations under this Agreement, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action; (d) this Agreement, when duly executed and delivered by it, and subject to the due execution and delivery hereof by the other Parties, will be a valid and binding obligation of it, enforceable against it, its successors and permitted assigns, in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and general equity principles; (e) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby in accordance with the respective terms and conditions hereof will not (i) violate any provision of its Organizational Documents, (ii) violate any applicable order, judgment, injunction, award or decree of any court, arbitrator or governmental or regulatory body against it, or binding upon it, or any agreement with, or condition imposed by, any governmental or regulatory body, foreign or domestic, binding upon it as of the date hereof, or (iii) violate any agreement, contract, obligation, promise or undertaking that is legally binding and to which it is a party or by which it is bound; and (f) the signatory hereto on behalf of it is duly authorized and legally empowered to enter into this Agreement on its behalf.

9. Notices. Any and all notices, requests, approvals, authorizations, consents, instructions, designations and other communications that are required or permitted to be given pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and may be given either by personal delivery, first class prepaid post (airmail if to another country) or by internationally recognized overnight delivery service to the following address, or to such other address and recipient as such Party may have notified in accordance with the terms of this section as being its address or recipient for notification for the purposes of this Agreement:

Any notice or communication to any Person shall be deemed to be received by that Person:

(A) upon personal delivery; or

(B) upon receipt if sent by mail or courier.

10. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania without regard to those provisions concerning conflicts of laws that would result in the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

11. Entire Agreement. THIS AGREEMENT CONSTITUTES THE ENTIRE AGREEMENT AMONG ALL OF THE PARTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE TRANSFERS, ASSUMPTIONS, AND NOVATIONS DESCRIBED HEREIN AND SUPERSEDES ALL OTHER PRIOR AGREEMENTS AND UNDERSTANDINGS, BOTH WRITTEN AND ORAL, WITH RESPECT TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF. SOLELY FOR INTERPRETATION PURPOSES, THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS AGREEMENT IS INTENDED TO BE READ TOGETHER WITH THE ALAA, AND THE PARTIES FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGE THE CONTROLLING NATURE OF THE ALAA WITH RESPECT TO DISPUTE RESOLUTION, AS SET FORTH IN THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH.

12. Dispute Resolution. Any and all disputes arising out of this Agreement shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures set for in the Master Separation Agreement (or, in the event the Master Separation Agreement is not entered into by MII and The Babcock & Wilcox Company, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the draft thereof dated as of April 28, 2010). Issues as to whether a given obligation is an Insured B&W Obligation or an Insured MII Obligation shall be resolved as set forth in the ALAA, which resolution shall be binding for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding (by way of example only) any assertion that the putative Insured B&W Obligation arose under a Wholly Retained Boudin Policy or the putative Insured MII Obligation arose under a Wholly Retained Creole Policy, or any other assertion that the terms of this Agreement prohibit the allocation reached under the ALAA. Any such assertions may be made, to the extent appropriate, in connection with the dispute resolution under the ALAA but may not be made as a basis for challenging such resolution.

13. Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement or the Exhibits attached hereto is determined by a nonappealable decision by a court, administrative agency or arbitrator to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the court, administrative agency or arbitrator shall interpret this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the fullest extent possible. If any sentence in this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.

14. Rules of Construction. The definitions of terms used herein shall apply equally to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The words “include”, “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation”. The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall”. Unless the context requires otherwise (a) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document herein shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, (b) any reference herein to any law shall be construed as referring to such law as amended, modified, codified or reenacted, in whole or in part, and in effect from time to time, (c) any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns (subject to the restrictions contained herein), (d) the words “herein”, “hereof” and “hereunder”, and words of similar import, shall be construed to refer to this

9

Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof, (e) with respect to the determination of any time period, the word “from” means “from and including” and the word “to” means “to and including” and (f) any reference herein to Articles, Sections and Exhibits shall be construed to refer to Articles and Sections of, and Exhibits to, this Agreement. No provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted or construed against any Person solely because such Person or its legal representative drafted such provision.

(a) Each Committed Borrowing, each conversion of Committed Loans from one Type to the other, and each continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be made upon the Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. (i) three Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans or of any conversion of Eurocurrency Rate Loans to Base Rate Committed Loans, and (ii) on the requested date of any Borrowing of Base Rate Committed Loans; provided that if the Borrower wishes to request Eurocurrency Rate Loans having an Interest Period other than one, two, three or six months in duration as provided in the definition of “Interest Period,” the applicable notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. four Business Days prior to the requested date of such Borrowing, conversion or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, whereupon the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Lenders of such request and determine whether the requested Interest Period is acceptable to all of them.

(c) Except as otherwise provided herein, a Eurocurrency Rate Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Loan. During the existence of a Default, no Loans may be requested as, converted to or continued as Eurocurrency Rate Loans without the consent of the Required Lenders.

(C) except as otherwise agreed by such L/C Issuer, the Letter of Credit is in an initial stated amount less than $100,000, in the case of a commercial Letter of Credit, or $500,000, in the case of a standby Letter of Credit;

(D) except as otherwise agreed by such L/C Issuer, the Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars or an Alternative Currency applicable to such L/C Issuer;

(E) such L/C Issuer does not, as of the issuance date of such requested Letter of Credit, issue Letters of Credit in the requested currency; or

(F) any Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, unless such L/C Issuer has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of Cash Collateral, satisfactory to such L/C Issuer (in its sole discretion) with the Borrower or such Lender to eliminate such L/C Issuer’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv)) with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or that Letter of Credit and all other L/C Obligations as to which such L/C Issuer has actual or potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its sole discretion.

-42-

(iv) No L/C Issuer shall amend any Letter of Credit if such L/C Issuer would not be permitted at such time to issue the Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof.

(v) No L/C Issuer shall be under any obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) such L/C Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue the Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to the Letter of Credit.

(vi) Each L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and each L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A) provided to the Administrative Agent in Article IX with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in Article IX included the L/C Issuers with respect to such acts or omissions, and (B) as additionally provided herein with respect to the L/C Issuers or any of them.

(b) Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto-Extension Letters of Credit.

(i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Borrower delivered to the applicable L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. at least two Business Days (or such later date and time as the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount and currency thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (G) whether such requested Letter of Credit is a Performance Letter of Credit, a Financial Letter of Credit or a commercial Letter of Credit; (H) the Permitted L/C Party for whom such Letter of Credit is to be issued; and (I) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may reasonably require. Additionally, the Borrower shall furnish to the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such

-43-

requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent may reasonably require.

(ii) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the applicable L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Borrower and, if not, the L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the L/C Issuer has received written notice from any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Loan Party, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Article IV shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the applicable Permitted L/C Party or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit.

(iii) If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the applicable L/C Issuer may, in its sole discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the L/C Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once prior to the then applicable expiration date of such Letter of Credit (without giving effect to the next ensuing extension thereof) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the L/C Issuer for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the L/C Issuer to permit such extensions of such Letter of Credit; provided that if any such extension results in any such Letter of Credit becoming an Extended Letter of Credit the Borrower shall provide Cash Collateral therefor in accordance with Section 6.28; provided, however, that the L/C Issuer shall not permit any such extension if (A) the L/C Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 2.03(a) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the L/C Issuer not to permit such extension.

-44-

(v) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the L/C Issuer will also deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.

(c) Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations.

(i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the applicable L/C Issuer shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. In the case of any draw under a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, the L/C Issuer shall notify the Borrower of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of the drawing promptly following the determination thereof. The Borrower agrees to pay to the L/C Issuer of any Letter of Credit that has been drawn upon the amount of all draws thereunder, in Dollars (or the Dollar Equivalent of such payment if such payment was made in an Alternative Currency), no later than (x) the Business Day on which the L/C Issuer has provided notice thereof to the Borrower if such notice has been provided prior to 11:00 a.m. on such Business Day, or (y) no later than 10:00 a.m. on the next succeeding Business Day after the Borrower receives such notice from such L/C Issuer if such notice is not received prior to 11:00 a.m. on such day (each such date, an “Honor Date”), and such L/C Issuer shall provide prompt notice to the Administrative Agent of such reimbursement. If the Borrower fails to so reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer by such time, such L/C Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of the Honor Date and the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (expressed in Dollars in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent thereof in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency) (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the Administrative Agent shall provide such notice, along with the amount of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof, to each Lender. In such event, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than the delivery of a Committed Loan Notice). Any notice given by any L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(ii) Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) make funds available (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral provided for this purpose) for the account of the L/C Issuer, in Dollars, at the Administrative Agent’s Office for Dollar-denominated payments in an amount equal to its Applicable Percentage of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Committed Loan to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the L/C Issuer in Dollars.

-45-

(iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans because the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. In such event, each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03.

(iv) Until each Lender funds its Committed Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such amount shall be solely for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer.

(v) Each Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against any L/C Issuer, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than delivery by the Borrower of a Committed Loan Notice). No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by the L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.

(vi) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of any L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(ii), then, without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, the applicable L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the L/C Issuer in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Committed Loan included in the relevant Committed Borrowing or L/C Advance in respect of the relevant L/C Borrowing, as the case may be. A certificate of the applicable L/C Issuer submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Repayment of Participations.

-46-

(i) At any time after the L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(c), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof in Dollars and in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent.

(ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer its Applicable Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other Loan Document;

(ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that the Borrower or any Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;

(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit;

(iv) any payment by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any

-47-

beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law;

(v) any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the availability of the relevant Alternative Currency to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or in the relevant currency markets generally; or

(vi) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower or any Subsidiary.

The Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, the Borrower will immediately notify the L/C Issuer. The Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid, but only to the extent not prohibited by any applicable Requirement of Law.

(f) Role of L/C Issuer. Each Lender and the Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, no L/C Issuer shall have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the L/C Issuers, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of any L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document. The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the L/C Issuers, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of any L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (vi) of Section 2.03(e); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may have a claim against the applicable L/C Issuer, and the applicable L/C Issuer may be liable to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower proves were caused by the L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or the L/C Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and no L/C Issuer shall be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or

-48-

purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.

(g) Applicability of ISP and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable L/C Issuer and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of issuance shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit.

(h) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender (subject to the limitations with respect to Defaulting Lenders set forth in the proviso below) in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, in Dollars, a Letter of Credit fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) (i) for each commercial Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Rate for commercial Letters of Credit times the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, and (ii) for each standby Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Rate for such type (Financial Letter of Credit or Performance Letter of Credit) of such Letter of Credit times the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit (but in each case, excluding from the calculation thereof any portion of any Letter of Credit that has been Cash Collateralized by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.15(a) as a result of any Defaulting Lender during the period such portion is so Cash Collateralized); provided that any Letter of Credit Fees otherwise payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit (or portion thereof) as to which neither the Borrower nor such Defaulting Lender has provided Cash Collateral satisfactory to the L/C Issuer pursuant to this Section 2.03 or Section 2.15(a) shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, to the other Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Applicable Percentages allocable to such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.16(a)(iv), with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to the applicable L/C Issuer for its own account. For purposes of computing the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.08. Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i) due and payable on the third Business Day after the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand and (ii) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears. If there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate.

(i) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuer. The Borrower shall pay directly to the applicable L/C Issuer for its own account, in Dollars, a fronting fee (i) with respect to each commercial Letter of Credit, at a rate separately agreed to between the Borrower and such L/C Issuer, computed on the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such Letter of Credit, and payable upon the issuance thereof, (ii) with respect to any amendment

-49-

of a commercial Letter of Credit increasing the amount of such Letter of Credit, at a rate separately agreed between the Borrower and such L/C Issuer, computed on the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such increase, and payable upon the effectiveness of such amendment, and (iii) with respect to each standby Letter of Credit, at the rate per annum specified in the applicable Fee Letter or otherwise agreed between such L/C Issuer and the Borrower, computed on the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fee with respect to standby Letters of Credit shall be due and payable on the third Business Day after the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December in respect of the then-ended quarterly period (or portion thereof, in the case of the first payment), commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. Such fronting fee with respect to commercial Letters of Credit shall be due and payable as provided in subparts (i) and (ii) above. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.08. In addition, the Borrower shall pay directly to the applicable L/C Issuer for its own account, in Dollars, the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of the L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable.

(j) Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control.

(k) Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries, Affiliates and Joint Ventures. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Permitted L/C Party other than the Borrower, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the L/C Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Permitted L/C Parties other than the Borrower inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Permitted L/C Parties.

(l) Additional L/C Issuers. In addition to Bank of America and each L/C Issuer listed on the signature pages hereto as an “L/C Issuer,” the Borrower may from time to time, with notice to the Lenders and the consent of the Administrative Agent and the applicable Lender being so appointed, appoint additional Lenders to be L/C Issuers hereunder, provided that the total number of L/C Issuers at any time shall not exceed six Lenders (or such larger number of additional Lenders as the Administrative Agent may agree to permit from time to time, it being understood the Administrative Agent has consented to The Bank of Nova Scotia being a seventh L/C Issuer as of the Closing Date solely with respect to its Existing Letters of Credit hereunder). Upon the appointment of a Lender as an L/C Issuer hereunder such Person shall become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of an L/C Issuer hereunder.

(m) Removal of L/C Issuers. The Borrower may at any time remove Bank of America or any L/C Issuer that is appointed pursuant to subpart (l) above, if (but only if) such Person is at such time a Defaulting Lender, in each such case upon not less than 30 days prior notice to such L/C Issuer; provided that such removed L/C Issuer shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges

-50-

and duties of an L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its removal as L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Committed Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.03(c)). Without limiting the foregoing, upon the removal of a Lender as an L/C Issuer hereunder, the Borrower may, or at the request of such removed L/C Issuer the Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to, arrange for one or more of the other L/C Issuers to issue Letters of Credit hereunder in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, issued by such removed L/C Issuer and outstanding at the time of such removal, or make other arrangements satisfactory to the removed L/C Issuer to effectively cause another L/C Issuer to assume the obligations of the removed L/C Issuer with respect to any such Letters of Credit.

(n) Reporting of Letter of Credit Information and L/C Issuer Sublimit. At any time that there is more than one L/C Issuer, then on (i) the last Business Day of each calendar month, and (ii) each date that an L/C Credit Extension occurs with respect to any Letter of Credit, each L/C Issuer (or, in the case of part (ii), the applicable L/C Issuer) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a report setting forth in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent information with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer that is outstanding hereunder, including any auto-renewal or termination of auto-renewal provisions in such Letter of Credit. In addition, each L/C Issuer shall provide notice to the Administrative Agent of its L/C Issuer Sublimit, or any change thereto, promptly upon it becoming an L/C Issuer or making any change to its L/C Issuer Sublimit. No failure on the part of any L/C Issuer to provide such information pursuant to this Section 2.03(n) shall limit the obligation of the Borrower or any Lender hereunder with respect to its reimbursement and participation obligations, respectively, pursuant to this Section 2.03.

(o) Cash Collateralized Letters of Credit. If the Borrower has fully Cash Collateralized the applicable L/C Issuer with respect to any Extended Letter of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer in accordance with Section 6.28 and the Borrower and the applicable L/C Issuer have made arrangements between them with respect to the pricing and fees associated therewith (each such Extended Letter of Credit a “Cash Collateralized Letter of Credit”), then on the day that is 91 days after the date of notice to the Administrative Agent thereof by the applicable L/C Issuer (so long as such Cash Collateral has remained in place for the entirety of such 91-day period), and for so long as such Cash Collateral remains in place (i) such Cash Collateralized Letter of Credit shall cease to be a “Letter of Credit” hereunder, (ii) such Cash Collateralized Letter of Credit shall not constitute utilization of the Aggregate Commitments, (iii) no Lender shall have any further obligation to fund participations, L/C Borrowings or Committed Loans to reimburse any drawing under any such Cash Collateralized Letter of Credit, (iv) no Letter of Credit Fee shall be due or payable to the Lenders, or any of them, hereunder with respect to such Cash Collateralized Letter of Credit, and (v) any fronting fee, issuance fee or other fee with respect to such Cash Collateralized Letter of Credit shall be as agreed separately between the Borrower and such L/C Issuer.

2.04 Swing Line Loans.

(a) The Swing Line. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swing Line Lender, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.04, may in its sole discretion make loans in Dollars (each such loan, a “Swing Line Loan”) to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the Availability Period in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of the Swing Line Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that such Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with the Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of Committed Loans and L/C Obligations of the Lender acting as Swing Line Lender, may exceed the amount of such Lender’s Commitment; provided, however, that after giving effect to any Swing Line Loan, (i) the Total Outstandings shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitments, and (ii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Committed Loans of any Lender, plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment, and provided, further, that the Borrower shall not use the proceeds of any Swing Line Loan to refinance any outstanding Swing Line Loan. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.04, prepay under Section 2.05, and reborrow under this Section 2.04. Each Swing Line Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan. Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage times the amount of such Swing Line Loan.

(b) Borrowing Procedures. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made upon the Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the requested borrowing date, and shall specify (i) the amount to be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $100,000, and (ii) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day. Each such telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent of a written Swing Line Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Promptly after receipt by the Swing Line Lender of any telephonic Swing Line Loan Notice, the Swing Line Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such Swing Line Loan Notice and, if not, the Swing Line Lender will notify the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. Unless the Swing Line Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Lender) prior to 2:00 p.m. on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing (A) directing the Swing Line Lender not to make such Swing Line Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the first proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.04(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Article IV is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender will, not later than 3:00 p.m. on the borrowing date specified in such Swing Line Loan Notice, make the amount of its Swing Line Loan available to the Borrower.

(c) Refinancing of Swing Line Loans.

-52-

(i) The Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may request, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf), that each Lender make a Base Rate Committed Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the amount of Swing Line Loans then outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Committed Loan Notice for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.02, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02. The Swing Line Lender shall furnish the Borrower with a copy of the applicable Committed Loan Notice promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Lender shall make an amount equal to its Applicable Percentage of the amount specified in such Committed Loan Notice available to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral available with respect to the applicable Swing Line Loan) for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office for Dollar-denominated payments not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day specified in such Committed Loan Notice, whereupon, subject to Section 2.04(c)(ii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Committed Loan to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line Lender.

(ii) If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by such a Committed Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.04(c)(i), the request for Base Rate Committed Loans submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swing Line Lender that each of the Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan and each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation.

(iii) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04(c) by the time specified in Section 2.04(c)(i), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Swing Line Lender in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Committed Loan included in the relevant Committed Borrowing or funded participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan, as the case may be. A certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

-53-

(iv) Each Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02. No such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to repay Swing Line Loans, together with interest as provided herein.

(d) Repayment of Participations.

(i) At any time after any Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof in the same funds as those received by the Swing Line Lender.

(ii) If any payment received by the Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swing Line Loan is required to be returned by the Swing Line Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to the Swing Line Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate. The Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swing Line Lender. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(e) Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Borrower for interest on the Swing Line Loans. Until each Lender funds its Base Rate Committed Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.04 to refinance such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of any Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such Applicable Percentage shall be solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender.

(f) Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender. The Borrower shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line Loans directly to the Swing Line Lender.

2.05 Prepayments.

(a) The Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Committed Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (A) three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, and (B) on the date of prepayment of Base Rate Committed Loans; (ii) any prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of

-54-

$1,000,000 in excess thereof; and (iii) any prepayment of Base Rate Committed Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof or, in each case, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of Committed Loans to be prepaid and, if Eurocurrency Rate Loans are to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such Loans. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05. Subject to Section 2.16, each such prepayment shall be applied to the Committed Loans of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages.

(b) The Borrower may, upon notice to the Swing Line Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at any time or from time to time, voluntarily prepay Swing Line Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date of the prepayment, and (ii) any such prepayment shall be in a minimum principal amount of $100,000. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein.

(c) If the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower at any time that the Total Outstandings at such time exceed the Aggregate Commitments then in effect, then, within two Business Days after receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall prepay Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce such Outstanding Amount as of such date of payment to an amount not to exceed the Aggregate Commitments then in effect; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be required to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.05(c) unless after the prepayment in full of the Loans the Total Outstandings exceed the Aggregate Commitments then in effect. The Administrative Agent may, at any time and from time to time after the initial deposit of such Cash Collateral, request that additional Cash Collateral be provided in order to protect against the results of further exchange rate fluctuations.

2.06 Termination or Reduction of Commitments. The Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the Aggregate Commitments, or from time to time permanently reduce the Aggregate Commitments; provided that (a) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. five Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (b) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (c) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Aggregate Commitments if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, the Total Outstandings would exceed the Aggregate Commitments, and (d) if, after giving effect to any reduction of the Aggregate Commitments, the Alternative Currency Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Aggregate Commitments, such Sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess.

-55-

Except as provided in the preceding sentence, the amount of any such Aggregate Commitment reduction shall not be applied to the Alternative Currency Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit unless otherwise specified by the Borrower. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such notice of termination or reduction of the Aggregate Commitments. Any reduction of the Aggregate Commitments shall be applied to the Commitment of each Lender according to its Applicable Percentage. All fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Aggregate Commitments shall be paid on the effective date of such termination. A notice of termination of the Aggregate Commitments may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, and if any notice so states it may be revoked by the Borrower by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date specified for the termination of the Aggregate Commitments that the refinancing condition has not been met and the termination is to be revoked, provided that the Borrower will continue to be responsible for any costs or expenses pursuant to Section 3.05 in connection with the failure to prepay Loans resulting from such revocation.

2.07 Repayment of Loans.

(a) The Borrower shall repay to the Lenders on the Maturity Date the aggregate principal amount of Committed Loans made to the Borrower outstanding on such date.

(b) The Borrower shall repay each Swing Line Loan on the earlier to occur of (i) the date 10 Business Days after such Loan is made and (ii) the Maturity Date.

2.08 Interest.

(a) Subject to the provisions of subsection (b) below, (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate; (ii) each Base Rate Committed Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate; and (iii) each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

(b) (i) If any amount of principal of any Loan is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law.

(ii) If any amount (other than principal of any Loan) payable by the Borrower under any Loan Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, then upon the request of the Required Lenders, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law.

-56-

(iii) Upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, the Borrower shall pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law.

(iv) Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

(c) Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

2.09 Fees. In addition to certain fees described in subsections (h) and (i) of Section 2.03:

(a) Commitment Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender (subject to Section 2.16(a)(iii)(x) with respect to Defaulting Lenders) in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, a commitment fee in Dollars equal to the Applicable Rate times the actual daily amount by which the Aggregate Commitments exceed the sum of (i) the Outstanding Amount of Committed Loans and (ii) the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.16. The commitment fee shall accrue at all times during the Availability Period, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article IV is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the third Business Day after the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the last day of the Availability Period. The commitment fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect.

(b) Other Fees.

(i) The Borrower shall pay to the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent for their own respective accounts, in Dollars, fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letters. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

(ii) The Borrower shall pay to the Lenders, in Dollars, such fees as shall have been separately agreed upon in writing in the amounts and at the times so specified. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

2.10 Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans (including Base Rate Loans determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate) shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All

-57-

other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.12(a), bear interest for one day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

2.11 Evidence of Debt.

(a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Promptly after the request of any Lender to the Borrower made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans to the Borrower in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to a Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

(b) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in subsection (a), each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

2.12 Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback.

(a) General. All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may require that any payments due under this Agreement be made in the United States. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Applicable Percentage (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent or

-58-

the applicable L/C Issuer after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

(b) (i) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Committed Borrowing of Eurocurrency Rate Loans (or, in the case of any Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to (A) 12:00 noon on the date of such Committed Borrowing if such Committed Borrowing is to be made on a Business Day other than the date the Administrative Agent received the applicable Committed Loan Notice with respect to such Borrowing and (B) 2:00 p.m. on the date of such Committed Borrowing if such Committed Borrowing is to be made on the same Business Day as the date the Administrative Agent received the applicable Commitment Loan Notice with respect to such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Committed Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.02 (or, in the case of a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.02) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Committed Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the Overnight Rate, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Committed Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Committed Loan included in such Committed Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

(ii) Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the

-59-

Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the Overnight Rate.

A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(c) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender to the Borrower as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

(d) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Committed Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 10.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Committed Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 10.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Committed Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 10.04(c).

(e) Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

2.13 Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the Committed Loans made by it, or the participations in L/C Obligations or in Swing Line Loans held by it resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Committed Loans or participations and accrued interest thereon greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Committed Loans and subparticipations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Committed Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that:

-60-

(i) if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and

(ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), (y) the application of Cash Collateral provided for in Section 2.15, or (z) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Committed Loans or subparticipations in L/C Obligations or Swing Line Loans to any assignee or participant, other than an assignment to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply).

The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

2.14 Increase in Commitments.

(a) Request for Increase. Provided there exists no Default, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), the Borrower may from time to time, request an increase in the Aggregate Commitments (which increase may take the form of one or more new revolving loan tranches) by an amount (for all such requests) not exceeding $150,000,000; provided that (i) any such request for an increase shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000, and (ii) the Borrower may make a maximum of three such requests (excluding any such requests that are not consummated). At the time of sending such notice, the Borrower (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders).

(b) Lender Elections to Increase. Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Applicable Percentage of such requested increase. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment, and no Lender has any obligation to agree to increase its Commitment pursuant to this Section.

(c) Notification by Administrative Agent; Additional Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and each Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested increase and subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent, each L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld), the Borrower may also invite additional Eligible Assignees to become

-61-

Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel.

(d) Effective Date and Allocations. If the Aggregate Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall determine the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the final allocation of such increase and the Increase Effective Date.

(e) Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase. As a condition precedent to such increase, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of each Loan Party dated as of the Increase Effective Date (in sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by a Responsible Officer of such Loan Party (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such increase, and (ii) in the case of the Borrower, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article V and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Increase Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 2.14, the representations and warranties contained in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 5.04 shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to clauses (a) and (b), respectively, of Section 6.01, and (B) no Default exists. The Borrower shall prepay any Committed Loans outstanding on the Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Committed Loans ratable with any revised Applicable Percentages arising from any nonratable increase in the Commitments under this Section.

(f) Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.13 or 10.01 to the contrary.

2.15 Cash Collateral.

(a) Certain Credit Support Events. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any L/C Issuer (i) if any L/C Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing, the Borrower shall immediately Cash Collateralize such L/C Borrowing and, if requested by such L/C Issuer, all other Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer, or (ii) if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, the Borrower shall immediately Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, immediately upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(b) Grant of Security Interest. All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing (unless otherwise agreed by the depositary) deposit accounts at the Administrative Agent or the relevant

-62-

L/C Issuer, as applicable. To the extent provided by the Borrower, the Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Lender, such Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the relevant L/C Issuer or to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders (including the Swing Line Lender), as applicable, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to Section 2.15(c). If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure and other obligations secured thereby, the Borrower or the relevant Defaulting Lender will, promptly (but in any event within five Business Days) after demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.

(c) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this Section 2.15 or Sections 2.03, 2.04, 2.05, 2.16 or 8.02 in respect of Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific L/C Obligations, Swing Line Loans, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.

(d) Release. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with Section 10.06(b)(vi))) or (ii) the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that (x) Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Loan Party shall not be released during the continuance of a Default (and following application as provided in this Section 2.15 may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 8.03), and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as applicable, may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

2.16 Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law:

(i) Waivers and Amendments. That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 10.01.

(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or

-63-

otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.08), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent or requested by the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, to be held as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of that Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Swing Line Loan or Letter of Credit; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing (unless otherwise agreed by the depositary) deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Borrowings in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans or L/C Borrowings were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Borrowings owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Borrowings owed to, that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.16(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Certain Fees. That Defaulting Lender (x) shall not be entitled to receive any commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.09(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender) and (y) shall be limited in its right to receive Letter of Credit Fees as provided in Section 2.03(h).

(iv) Reallocation of Applicable Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure. During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans pursuant to Sections 2.03 and 2.04, the “Applicable Percentage” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed

-64-

without giving effect to the Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; provided that (i) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default exists; and (ii) the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Commitment of that non-Defaulting Lender minus (2) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Committed Loans of that Lender.

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and the L/C Issuer agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Committed Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentages (without giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv)), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

2.17 Borrower Succession. Upon the effectiveness of the Spinoff in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the satisfaction of the requirements and conditions set forth in Section 6.24 hereof, the New Borrower shall replace the Original Borrower as the Borrower hereunder, and all references herein to the “Borrower” shall be deemed to be references to the New Borrower.

ARTICLE III.

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

3.01 Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes.

(i) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall to the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Taxes. If, however, applicable Requirements of Law require such Loan Party or the Administrative Agent to withhold or deduct any Tax, such Tax shall be withheld or deducted in accordance with such Requirements of Law as determined by such Loan Party or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, upon the basis of the information and documentation to be delivered pursuant to subsection (e) below.

-65-

(ii) If the Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall be required by the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes, including both United States Federal backup withholding and withholding Taxes, from any payment made hereunder or under any other Loan Document, then (A) the Administrative Agent shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by the Administrative Agent to be required based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to subsection (e) below, (B) the Administrative Agent shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with the Code, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent, Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes been made.

(iii) If the Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall be required by any applicable Requirements of Law other than the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes from any payment made hereunder or under any other Loan Document, then (A) the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as required by such Requirements of Law, shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by it to be required based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to subsection (e) below, (B) the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, to the extent required by such Requirements of Law, shall timely pay the full amount so withheld or deducted by it to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with such Requirements of Law, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent, Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Loan Parties. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the each Loan Party shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law.

(c) Tax Indemnifications.

(i) Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) or (b) above, each Loan Party shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the L/C Issuer, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, with respect to the Obligations hereunder and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not

-66-

such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Each Loan Party shall also, and does hereby, indemnify the Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, for any amount which a Lender or the L/C Issuer for any reason fails to pay indefeasibly to the Administrative Agent as required by clause (ii) of this subsection. A certificate as to the amount of any such payment or liability delivered to the applicable Loan Party by a Lender or the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Loan Parties are not indemnifying any Person for Excluded Taxes.

(ii) Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) or (b) above, each Lender and the L/C Issuer shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, against any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities, penalties, interest and expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) incurred by or imposed or asserted against any Loan Party or the Administrative Agent by any Governmental Authority, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted, as a result of the failure by such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, to deliver, or as a result of the inaccuracy, inadequacy or deficiency of, any documentation required to be delivered by such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, to the applicable Loan Party or the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (e). Each Lender and the L/C Issuer hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (ii). The agreements in this clause (ii) shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender or the L/C Issuer, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

(d) Evidence of Payments. Upon request by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower or by the Administrative Agent to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 3.01, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent or the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower, as the case may be, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by Requirements of Law to report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be.

(e) Status of Lenders; Tax Documentation.

(i) Each Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and to the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law or when reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly

-67-

completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law or by the taxing authorities of any jurisdiction and such other reasonably requested information as will permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine (A) whether or not payments made by the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document are subject to Taxes, (B) if applicable, the required rate of withholding or deduction, and (C) such Lender’s entitlement to any available exemption from, or reduction of, applicable Taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Lender by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise to establish such Lender’s status for withholding tax purposes in the applicable jurisdictions.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States,

(A) any Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent executed originals of IRS Form W-9 or such other documentation or information prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements; and

(B) each Foreign Lender that is entitled under the Code or any applicable treaty to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:

(I) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party,

(II) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI,

(III) executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY and all required supporting documentation,

(IV) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-

-68-

8BEN, or

(V) executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding Tax together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(iii) Each Lender shall promptly (A) notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction, and (B) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its Lending Office) to avoid any requirement of applicable Requirements of Law of any jurisdiction that the Borrower or the Administrative Agent make any withholding or deduction for taxes from amounts payable to such Lender.

(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. Unless required by applicable Requirements of Law, at no time shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender or the L/C Issuer, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be. If the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes or a direct offset against its Tax liabilities as to which it has been indemnified by a Loan Party or with respect to which any Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall promptly after such determination pay to the applicable Loan Party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund) or such direct offset (but only to the extent of the net Tax benefit obtained by it as a result of such payment by the applicable Loan Party), net of all out-of-pocket expenses and net of any loss or gain realized in the conversion of such funds from or to another currency incurred by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that such Loan Party, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Loan Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to a Loan Party or any other Person.

3.02 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Requirement of Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the

-69-

Eurocurrency Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the applicable interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (a) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurocurrency Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Committed Loans to Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be suspended, and (b) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Eurocurrency Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component thereof until the Administrative is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

3.03 Inability to Determine Rates. If the Required Lenders determine that for any reason in connection with any request for a Eurocurrency Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof that (a) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurocurrency Rate Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Loan, or (c) the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be suspended, and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the Eurocurrency Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

-70-

3.04 Increased Costs; Reserves on Eurocurrency Rate Loans.

(a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement contemplated by Section 3.04(e), other than as set forth below) or the L/C Issuer;

(ii) subject any Lender or the L/C Issuer to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit or any Eurocurrency Rate Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or the L/C Issuer in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 3.01 and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender or the L/C Issuer);

(iii) impose on any Lender or the L/C Issuer or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan the interest on which is determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or the L/C Issuer of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the L/C Issuer hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender or the L/C Issuer determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the L/C Issuer or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the L/C Issuer, to a level below that which such Lender or the L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

-71-

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or the L/C Issuer setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the L/C Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the L/C Issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

(e) Additional Reserve Requirements. The Borrower shall pay to each Lender, (i) as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurocurrency Rate Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), and (ii) as long as such Lender shall be required to comply with any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any other central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the funding of the Eurocurrency Rate Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Commitment or Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided the Borrower shall have received at least 10 days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest or costs from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice 10 days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest or costs shall be due and payable 10 days from receipt of such notice.

3.05 Compensation for Losses. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:

(a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise);

(b) any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower;

-72-

(c) any failure by the Borrower to make payment of any drawing under any Letter of Credit (or interest due thereon) denominated in an Alternative Currency on its scheduled due date or any payment thereof in a different currency; or

(d) any assignment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 10.13;

including any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan, or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. The Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount of any such loss or expense provided for in this Section and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurocurrency Rate Loan made by it at the Eurocurrency Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the offshore interbank market for such currency for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurocurrency Rate Loan was in fact so funded.

3.06 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender, the L/C Issuer, or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender or the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, then such Lender or the L/C Issuer shall, as applicable, use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or the L/C Issuer in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, the Borrower may replace such Lender in accordance with Section 10.13.

3.07 Survival. All of the Borrower’s obligations under this Article III shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments, repayment of all other Obligations hereunder, and resignation of the Administrative Agent.

-92-

of the Secured Parties as additional insured (with respect to liability and property policies), loss payee (with respect to property policies) or lender’s loss payee (with respect to property policies), as appropriate, and to provide that no cancellation, material addition in amount or material change in coverage shall be effective until after 30 days’ written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent.

6.17 Access. The Borrower shall from time to time during normal business hours, and subject to national security and defense requirements of any Governmental Authority, permit the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders, or any agents or representatives thereof, within five Business Days after written notification of the same (except that during the continuance of an Event of Default, no such notice shall be required) to (a) examine and make copies of and abstracts from the records and books of account of the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries, (b) visit the properties of the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries, (c) discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries with any of their respective officers or directors; provided that the Borrower will not be required to permit any examination or visit as set forth in clauses (a) and (b) above with respect to each of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders (or any agents or representatives thereof) (i) within the twelve-month period following the date of the most recent examination or visit by any L/C Issuer, any Lender or the Administrative Agent (or any agents or representatives thereof), as applicable, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) unless such visit is coordinated through the Administrative Agent.

-93-

reasonable based upon the circumstances) of any property currently owned, leased, operated or used by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, if (x) a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, or (y) the Administrative Agent reasonably believes (1) that an occurrence relating to such property is likely to give rise to any Environmental Liabilities and Costs or (2) that a violation of an Environmental Law on or around such property has occurred or is likely to occur, which could, in either such case, reasonably be expected to result in Environmental Liabilities and Costs in excess of $10,000,000, provided that, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such consultant shall not drill on any property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries without the Borrower’s prior written consent.

Any such investigation of any property shall be conducted, unless otherwise agreed to by Borrower and the Administrative Agent, during normal business hours and shall be conducted so as not to unreasonably interfere with the ongoing operations at any such property or to cause any damage or loss at such property. Borrower and the Administrative Agent hereby acknowledge and agree that any report of any investigation conducted at the request of the Administrative Agent pursuant to this subsection will be obtained and shall be used by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for the purposes of the Lenders’ internal credit decisions, to monitor the Obligations and to protect the Liens created by the Loan Documents, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby acknowledge and agree any such report will be kept confidential by them to the extent permitted by law except as provided in the following sentence. The Administrative Agent agrees to deliver a copy of any such report to Borrower with the understanding that Borrower acknowledges and agrees that (i) it will indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and each Lender from any costs, losses or liabilities relating to Borrower’s use of or reliance on such report, (ii) neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender makes any representation or warranty with respect to such report, and (iii) by delivering such report to Borrower, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender is requiring or recommending the implementation of any suggestions or recommendations contained in such report.

(c) Promptly after a Responsible Officer of the Borrower obtains actual knowledge thereof, the Borrower shall advise the Administrative Agent in writing and in reasonable detail of (i) any Release or threatened Release of any Contaminants required to be reported by Borrower or its Subsidiaries, to any Governmental Authorities under any applicable Environmental Laws and which would reasonably be expected to have Environmental Liabilities and Costs in excess of $10,000,000, (ii) any and all written communications with respect to any pending or threatened claims under Environmental Law in each such case which, individually or in the aggregate, have a reasonable possibility of giving rise to Environmental Liabilities and Costs in excess of $10,000,000, (iii) any Remedial Action performed by Borrower or any other Person in response to (x) any Contaminants on, under or about any property, the existence of which has a reasonable possibility of resulting in Environmental Liabilities and Costs in excess of $10,000,000, or (y) any other Environmental Liabilities and Costs in excess of $10,000,000 that could result in Environmental Liabilities and Costs in excess of $10,000,000, (iv) discovery by Borrower or its Subsidiaries of any occurrence or condition on any material property that could

-94-

cause Borrower’s or its Subsidiaries’ interest in any such property to be subject to any material restrictions on the ownership, occupancy, transferability or use thereof under any applicable Environmental Laws or Environmental Liens, and (v) any written request for information from any Governmental Authority that fairly suggests such Governmental Authority is investigating whether Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries may be potentially responsible for a Release or threatened Release of Contaminants which has a reasonable possibility of giving rise to Environmental Liabilities and Costs in excess of $10,000,000.

(d) Borrower shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of (i) any proposed acquisition of Stock, assets, or property by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that would reasonably be expected to expose Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to, or result in Environmental Liabilities and Costs in excess of $10,000,000 and (ii) any proposed action to be taken by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to commence manufacturing, industrial or other similar operations that would reasonably be expected to subject Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to additional Environmental Laws, that are materially different from the Environmental Laws applicable to the operations of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date.

(e) Borrower shall, at its own expense, provide copies of such documents or information as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in relation to any matters disclosed pursuant to this subsection.

(f) To the extent required by Environmental Laws or Governmental Authorities under applicable Environmental Laws, Borrower shall promptly take, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries promptly to take, any and all necessary Remedial Action in connection with the presence, handling, storage, use, disposal, transportation or Release or threatened Release of any Contaminants on, under or affecting any property in order to comply in all material respects with all applicable Environmental Laws and Permits. In the event Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries undertakes any Remedial Action with respect to the presence, Release or threatened Release of any Contaminants on or affecting any property, Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall conduct and complete such Remedial Action in material compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws, and in material accordance with the applicable policies, orders and directives of all relevant Governmental Authorities except when, and only to the extent that, Borrower or any such Subsidiaries’ liability for such presence, handling, storage, use, disposal, transportation or Release or threatened Release of any Contaminants is being contested in good faith by Borrower or any of such Subsidiaries. In the event Borrower fails to take required actions to address such Release or threatened Release of Contaminants or to address a violation of or liability under Environmental Law, the Administrative Agent may, upon providing the Borrower with 5 Business Days’ prior written notice, enter the property and, at Borrower’s sole expense, perform whatever action the Administrative Agent reasonably deems prudent to rectify the situation.

6.22 Additional Collateral and Guaranties. Notify the Administrative Agent promptly after any Person (i) becomes a Wholly-Owned Domestic Subsidiary (including in connection with the Spinoff) that is not an Immaterial Subsidiary (including a Wholly-Owned Domestic Subsidiary that ceases for any reason to satisfy the definition of “Immaterial Subsidiary” at any time), (ii) becomes a First-Tier Foreign Subsidiary, or (iii) is required to become a Guarantor and/or grant Collateral in compliance with Section 6.24 or 6.25, and

(b) except during a Collateral Release Period, if such Person is a Wholly-Owned Domestic Subsidiary other than a BWXT Entity or a Captive Insurance Subsidiary:

(i) cause such Person to deliver to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, Security Instruments (or supplements thereto), as specified by and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (including delivery of all certificated Pledged Interests in and of such Subsidiary, and other instruments of the type specified in Section 4.01(a)(iii) and (iv)), securing payment of all the Obligations and constituting Liens on all such real and personal properties,

(ii) take whatever action (including the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and the giving of notices) as may be necessary or advisable in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent to vest in the Administrative Agent (or in any representative of the Administrative Agent designated by it) valid and subsisting Liens on the properties purported to be subject to the Security Instruments (or supplements thereto) delivered pursuant to this Section 6.22, enforceable against all third parties in accordance with their terms (subject to Liens permitted by the Loan Documents), provided that no such actions shall be required in any jurisdiction outside the United States; and

(iii) without duplication of clause (a)(ii) above, cause such Person to deliver to the Administrative Agent documents of the types referred to in clauses (v), (vi) and (viii) of Section 4.01(a) and, at the request of the Administrative Agent, favorable opinions of counsel to such Person (which shall cover, among other things, the legality, validity, binding effect and enforceability of the documentation referred to in clause (b)(i)), all in form, content and scope reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; and

(c) except during a Collateral Release Period, if such Person is a First-Tier Foreign Subsidiary any of whose Stock is owned by a Loan Party (or a Person becoming a Loan Party

In each case as specified in this Section 9.10, the Administrative Agent will, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Security Instruments or to subordinate its interest in such item, or to release such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 9.10.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IX to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Obligations arising under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank, as the case may be.

No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

10.05 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, such L/C Issuer or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender and each L/C Issuer severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, in the applicable currency of such recovery or payment.

10.06 Successors and Assigns.

-125-

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that, other than as permitted and required by Sections 2.17 and 6.24, the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans (including for purposes of this subsection (b), participations in L/C Obligations and in Swing Line Loans) at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) Minimum Amounts.

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(B) in any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met.

-126-

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not apply to the Swing Line Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of Swing Line Loans;

(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition:

(A) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof;

(B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender;

(C) the consent of each L/C Issuer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding); and

(D) the consent of the Swing Line Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment.

(iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

(v) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made (A) to the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries, or (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), or (C) to a natural person, or (D) to any competitor of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is primarily engaged in an Eligible Line of Business and that has been previously identified as such by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent.

(vi) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be

-127-

effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Requirements of Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, and 10.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection

-128-

by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, a Defaulting Lender or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations and/or Swing Line Loans) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 10.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender.

(e) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.04 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 3.01(e) as though it were a Lender.

(f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note(s), if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(g) Resignation as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender after Assignment.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time Bank of America or any other L/C Issuer assigns all of its Commitment and Loans

-129-

pursuant to subsection (b) above, then (i) Bank of America or such other L/C Issuer may, upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, resign as an L/C Issuer and/or (ii) Bank of America may, upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrower, resign as the Swing Line Lender. In the event of any such resignation of an L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Bank of America or the applicable L/C Issuer as an L/C Issuer or of Bank of America as the Swing Line Lender, as the case may be.

(ii) If Bank of America or any other L/C Issuer resigns as an L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of an L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit issued by it and outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as an L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Committed Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.03(c)). Upon the appointment of a successor L/C Issuer with respect to such resigning L/C Issuer (x) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer and (y) such successor L/C Issuer (or another of the L/C Issuers, as may be arranged by the Borrower) shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, issued by the resigning L/C Issuer and outstanding at the time of such succession, or make other arrangements satisfactory to Bank of America or such other resigning L/C Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of Bank of America or such other resigning L/C Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit. The provisions of subparts (g)(i) and (g)(ii) of this Section shall not limit the ability of the Borrower to appoint and remove L/C Issuers pursuant to Sections 2.03(l) and (m).

(iii) If Bank of America resigns as Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Committed Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section 2.04(c). Upon the appointment of a successor Swing Line Lender, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Swing Line Lender.

10.07 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and each L/C Issuer agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in

-130-

connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or any Eligible Assignee invited to be a Lender pursuant to Section 2.14(c) or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower. For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of the Borrower relating to the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of the Borrower or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is (i) available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of the Borrower, or (ii) is clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” by the Borrower, which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the page thereof. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

The Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers acknowledge that the Borrower and its Subsidiaries perform classified contracts funded by or for the benefit of the United States Federal government and, accordingly, neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary will be obligated to release, disclose or otherwise make available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer any classified or special nuclear material to any parties not in possession of a valid security clearance and authorized by the appropriate agency of the United States Federal government to receive such material. The Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers agree that in connection with any exercise of a right or remedy the United States Federal government may remove classified information or government-issued property prior to any remedial action implicating such classified information or government-issued property. Upon notice from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers shall take such steps in accordance with this Agreement as may reasonably be requested by the Borrower to enable the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof to comply with the Foreign Ownership Control or Influence requirements of the United States Federal government imposed from time to time.

Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning the Borrower or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law, including United States Federal and state securities laws.

-131-

10.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each L/C Issuer and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, such L/C Issuer or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or such L/C Issuer, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or such L/C Issuer shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Borrower may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or such L/C Issuer different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.16 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender, each L/C Issuer and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such L/C Issuer or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and each L/C Issuer agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

10.09 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Requirements of Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

10.10 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts

-132-

hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or other electronic imaging means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

10.11 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding.

10.12 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.12, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

10.13 Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, or if any Lender is subject to replacement pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 10.01, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.06), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(a) the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 10.06(b);

(b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to 100% of the outstanding principal of its Loans and L/C Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any

-133-

amounts under Section 3.05) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and

(d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Requirements of Law.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

10.14 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Etc.

(a) GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

(b) SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. THE BORROWER IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER OR ANY L/C ISSUER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST THE BORROWER OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.

(c) WAIVER OF VENUE. THE BORROWER IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN PARAGRAPH (B) OF THIS SECTION. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT

-134-

PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.

(d) SERVICE OF PROCESS. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 10.02. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

10.15 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

10.16 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that: (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers, on the other hand, (B) the Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) the Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) each of the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Arranger has any obligation to the Borrower or any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower, the other Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates, and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Arranger has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each of the Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have

-135-

against the Administrative Agent or any Arranger with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

10.17 Electronic Execution of Assignments and Certain Other Documents. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption or in any amendment or other modification hereof (including waivers and consents) shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

10.18 Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender from the Borrower in the Agreement Currency, the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in such currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, agrees to return the amount of any excess to the Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).

10.19 Release and Reinstatement of Collateral.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Loan Document or any other document executed in connection herewith, if at any time (including after a Collateral Reinstatement Event shall have occurred) a Collateral Release Event shall have occurred and be continuing, then all Collateral (other than Cash Collateral) and the Security Instruments (other than Security Instruments entered into in connection with Cash Collateral) shall be released automatically and terminated without any further action. In connection with the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall, at Borrower’s expense and at the Borrower’s request, promptly execute and file in the appropriate location and deliver to Borrower such termination and full or partial release statements or confirmation thereof, as applicable, and do such other

-136-

things as are reasonably necessary to release the liens to be released pursuant hereto promptly upon the effectiveness of any such release.

(b) Notwithstanding clause (a) above, if a Collateral Reinstatement Event shall have occurred all Collateral and Security Instruments shall, at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense, be reinstated and all actions reasonably necessary, or reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, to provide to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties valid, perfected, first priority security interests in the Collateral (including without limitation the delivery of documentation and taking of actions of the type described in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of Section 6.22) shall be taken within 30 days of such event, which 30 day period may be extended by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion.

-137-

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed as of the date first above written.

GUARANTY AGREEMENT

This GUARANTY AGREEMENT (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, this “Guaranty”), dated as of May 3, 2010, is made by certain Subsidiaries of the Borrower, as identified on the signature pages hereto, and any Additional Guarantor who may become a party to this Guaranty (such signatories and the Additional Guarantors, collectively, the “Guarantors” and individually, a “Guarantor”), in favor of BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”) for the ratable benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, each L/C Issuer, the Hedge Banks, the Cash Management Banks, each co-agent or sub-agent appointed by the Administrative Agent from time to time pursuant to Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement described below and the other Persons to whom the Guaranteed Obligations are owed (collectively, the “Guaranteed Parties”).

Pursuant to that certain Credit Agreement dated as of the date hereof (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) among BABCOCK & WILCOX INVESTMENT COMPANY, a Delaware corporation, as the borrower thereunder or, after the effectiveness of the Spinoff and the satisfaction of the other terms and conditions in the Credit Agreement relating to the replacement thereof, the New Borrower as the borrower thereunder (the “Borrower”), the Lenders party thereto, the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender and each L/C Issuer, the Lenders have agreed to make Credit Extensions to the Borrower upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein.

Each Guarantor will materially benefit from the Credit Extensions made and to be made under the Credit Agreement.

Certain of the Guarantors are required to enter into this Guaranty pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement.

For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the parties hereto, and to induce the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties to enter into, and make their respective Credit Extensions and other accommodations under, the Loan Documents, the Secured Cash Management Agreements or the Secured Hedge Agreements, as applicable, the Guarantors hereby agree with the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Guaranteed Parties, as follows:

1. Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings herein that are assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement. The following terms when used herein shall have the meanings set forth below:

“Additional Guarantor” means each Person which hereafter becomes a Guarantor pursuant to Section 19 hereof and, if applicable, Section 6.22 of the Credit Agreement.

“Contribution Share” means, for any Guarantor in respect of any Excess Payment made by any other Guarantor, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) as of the date of such Excess Payment of (a) the amount by which the aggregate present fair salable value of all of its assets and properties exceeds the amount of all debts and liabilities of such Guarantor (including probable contingent, subordinated, unmatured, and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the

obligations of such Guarantor hereunder) to (b) the amount by which the aggregate present fair salable value of all assets and other properties of the Guarantors other than the maker of such Excess Payment exceeds the amount of all of the debts and liabilities (including probable contingent, subordinated, unmatured, and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder) of the Guarantors other than the maker of such Excess Payment; provided that for purposes of calculating the Contribution Shares of the Guarantors in respect of any Excess Payment, any Guarantor that became a Guarantor subsequent to the date of any such Excess Payment shall be deemed to have been a Guarantor on the date of such Excess Payment and the financial information for such Guarantor as of the date such Guarantor became a Guarantor shall be utilized for such Guarantor in connection with such Excess Payment.

“Excess Payment” means the amount paid by any Guarantor in excess of its Ratable Share of any Guaranteed Obligations.

“Guaranteed Obligations” has the meaning set forth in Section 2.

“Ratable Share” means, for any Guarantor in respect of any payment of Guaranteed Obligations, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) as of the date of such payment of Guaranteed Obligations of (a) the amount by which the aggregate present fair salable value of all of its assets and properties exceeds the amount of all debts and liabilities of such Guarantor (including probable contingent, subordinated, unmatured, and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder) to (b) the amount by which the aggregate present fair salable value of all assets and other properties of all of the Guarantors exceeds the amount of all of the debts and liabilities (including probable contingent, subordinated, unmatured, and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder) of the Guarantors; provided that for purposes of calculating the Ratable Shares of the Guarantors in respect of any payment of Guaranteed Obligations, any Guarantor that became a Guarantor subsequent to the date of any such payment shall be deemed to have been a Guarantor on the date of such payment and the financial information for such Guarantor as of the date such Guarantor became a Guarantor shall be utilized for such Guarantor in connection with such payment.

2. Guaranty. Each Guarantor hereby absolutely and unconditionally guarantees, as a guaranty of payment and performance and not merely as a guaranty of collection, prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, upon acceleration, demand or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of all Obligations, including any and all existing and future indebtedness and liabilities of every kind, nature and character, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, voluntary or involuntary and whether for principal, interest, premiums, fees indemnities, damages, costs, expenses or otherwise, of the Borrower to any Guaranteed Party arising under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document (including all renewals, extensions, amendments, restatements and other modifications thereof and all costs, attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party in connection with the collection or enforcement thereof), and whether recovery upon such indebtedness and liabilities may be or hereafter become unenforceable or shall be an allowed or disallowed claim under any proceeding or case commenced by or against any Guarantor or the Borrower under any Debtor Relief Laws, and including interest that accrues after the commencement by or against the Borrower of any

proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The books and records of the Administrative Agent and the books and records of each Guaranteed Party showing the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be admissible in evidence in any action or proceeding, and shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions and the interest and payments thereon. This Guaranty shall not be affected by the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any instrument or agreement evidencing any Guaranteed Obligations, or by the existence, validity, enforceability, perfection, non-perfection or extent of any collateral therefor, or by any fact or circumstance relating to the Guaranteed Obligations which might otherwise constitute a defense to the obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty, and such Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now have or hereafter acquire in any way relating to any or all of the foregoing. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder at any time shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its obligations hereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code (Title 11, United States Code) or any comparable provisions of any similar federal or state law.

3. No Setoff or Deductions; Taxes; Payments. Each Guarantor shall make all payments hereunder without setoff or counterclaim and free and clear of and without deduction for any taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions, withholdings, compulsory loans, restrictions or conditions of any nature now or hereafter imposed or levied by any jurisdiction or any political subdivision thereof or taxing or other authority therein unless such Guarantor is compelled by Requirement of Law to make such deduction or withholding and each Guarantor shall, jointly and severally, pay and indemnify each Guaranteed Party for Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes to the extent the Borrower would be required to do so pursuant to Section 3.01 of the Credit Agreement. The obligations of each Guarantor under this paragraph shall survive the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and termination of this Guaranty as to such Guarantor.

4. Rights of Guaranteed Parties. Each Guarantor consents and agrees that, to the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as applicable, the Guaranteed Parties may, at any time and from time to time, without notice or demand, and without affecting the enforceability or continuing effectiveness hereof: (a) amend, extend, renew, compromise, discharge, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment or the terms of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, (b) take, hold, exchange, enforce, waive, release, fail to perfect, sell, or otherwise dispose of any security for the payment of this Guaranty or any Guaranteed Obligations, (c) apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Guaranteed Parties in their sole discretion may determine and (d) release or substitute one or more of any endorsers or other guarantors of any of the Guaranteed Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such Guarantor consents to the taking of, or failure to take, any action which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risks of such Guarantor under this Guaranty or which, but for this provision, might operate as a discharge of such Guarantor.

5. Certain Waivers. Each Guarantor waives (a) any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of the Borrower or any other Guarantor, or the cessation from any cause whatsoever (including any act or omission of any Guaranteed Party) of the liability of the

Borrower other than payment and performance in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) any defense based on any claim that such Guarantor’s obligations exceed or are more burdensome than those of the Borrower, (c) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Guarantor’s liability hereunder, (d) any right to require any Guaranteed Party to proceed against the Borrower, proceed against or exhaust any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, or pursue any other remedy in any Guaranteed Party’s power whatsoever, (e) any benefit of and any right to participate in any security now or hereafter held by any Guaranteed Party and (f) to the fullest extent permitted by law, any and all other defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by Requirement of Law limiting the liability of or exonerating guarantors or sureties. Each Guarantor expressly waives all setoffs and counterclaims and all presentments, demands for payment or performance, notices of nonpayment or nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and all other notices or demands of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, and all notices of acceptance of this Guaranty or of the existence, creation or incurrence of new or additional Guaranteed Obligations.

6. Obligations Independent. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are those of primary obligor, and not merely as surety, and are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations and the obligations of any other Guarantor, and a separate action may be brought against such Guarantor to enforce this Guaranty whether or not the Borrower or any other person or entity is joined as a party.

7. Subrogation. Each Guarantor shall not exercise any right of subrogation, contribution, indemnity, reimbursement or similar rights with respect to any payments it makes under this Guaranty until the termination of this Guaranty in accordance with its terms. If any amounts are paid to any Guarantor in violation of the foregoing limitation, then such amounts shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Guaranteed Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of itself and the other Guaranteed Parties) to reduce the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.

8. Contribution. Subject to Section 7, each Guarantor hereby agrees with each other Guarantor that if any Guarantor shall make an Excess Payment, such Guarantor shall have a right of contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Guarantor’s Contribution Share of such Excess Payment. The payment obligations of any Guarantor under this Section shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the Guaranteed Obligations until such time as the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid and performed in full, and no Guarantor shall exercise any right or remedy under this Section against any other Guarantor until such Guaranteed Obligations have been paid and performed in full. Each Guarantor recognizes and acknowledges that the rights to contribution arising hereunder shall constitute an asset in favor of the party entitled to such contribution. This Section shall not be deemed to affect any right of subrogation, indemnity, reimbursement or contribution that any Guarantor may have under Requirement of Law against the Borrower in respect of any payment of Guaranteed Obligations.

9. Termination; Reinstatement. This Guaranty is a continuing and irrevocable guarantee of all Guaranteed Obligations, now or hereafter existing, and shall remain in full force and effect with respect to each of the Guarantors not otherwise released from their obligations hereunder pursuant to Section 22(b), until the termination of this Guaranty in accordance with its

terms. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this Guaranty shall continue in full force and effect or be revived, as the case may be, if any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Guarantor is made, or any Guaranteed Party exercises its right of setoff, in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by any Guaranteed Party in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws or otherwise, all as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred and whether or not any Guaranteed Party is in possession of or has released this Guaranty and regardless of any prior revocation, rescission, termination or reduction. The obligations of each Guarantor under this paragraph shall survive termination of this Guaranty.

10. Subordination. Each Guarantor hereby subordinates the payment of all obligations and indebtedness of the Borrower owing to such Guarantor, whether now existing or hereafter arising, including but not limited to any obligation of the Borrower to such Guarantor as subrogee of any Guaranteed Party or resulting from such Guarantor’s performance under this Guaranty, to the payment in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations; provided that, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower may make payments with respect to obligations and indebtedness of the Borrower owing to such Guarantor as permitted by the Credit Agreement and ordinary course payments pursuant to the Borrower’s and its Subsidiaries’ cash management system. If the Administrative Agent so requests when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any such obligation or indebtedness of the Borrower to any Guarantor shall be enforced and performance received by such Guarantor as trustee for the Administrative Agent and the proceeds thereof, as well as any other amounts received by such Guarantor in violation of this Section, shall be paid over to the Administrative Agent on account of the Guaranteed Obligations, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of such Guarantor under this Guaranty.

11. Stay of Acceleration. In the event that acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is stayed, in connection with any case commenced by or against the Borrower or any Guarantor under any Debtor Relief Laws, or otherwise, all such amounts shall nonetheless be payable by such Guarantor immediately upon demand by the Administrative Agent.

12. Condition of Borrower. Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that it has the sole responsibility for, and has adequate means of, obtaining from the Borrower and any other Guarantor such information concerning the financial condition, business and operations of the Borrower and any such other Guarantor as such Guarantor requires, and that no Guaranteed Party has a duty, and such Guarantor is not relying on any Guaranteed Party at any time, to disclose to such Guarantor any information relating to the business, operations or financial condition of the Borrower or any other Guarantor (such Guarantor waiving any duty on the part of any Guaranteed Parties to disclose such information and any defense relating to the failure to provide the same).

13. Representations and Warranties. Each Guarantor represents and warrants that each representation and warranty contained in Article V of the Credit Agreement to the extent such representation and warranty relates to such Guarantor is true and correct to the extent set

forth therein and except for such of those representations and warranties expressly stated to relate to a specific earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct to the extent set forth therein as of such earlier date, as if made by such Guarantor herein; provided that each reference in each such representation and warranty to the Borrower’s knowledge shall, for the purposes of this Section 13, be deemed to be a reference to such Guarantor’s knowledge.

14. Amendments; Etc. None of the terms or provisions of this Guaranty may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, nor any consent be given, except in accordance with Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement.

15. Notices. All notices and communications hereunder or under any Joinder Agreement as set forth in Section 19 shall be given to the addresses and otherwise made in accordance with Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement; provided that notices and communications to the Guarantors shall be directed to the Guarantors at the address of the Borrower set forth in Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement.

16. Expenses; Indemnification and Survival. Without limitation on any other obligations of each Guarantor or remedies of the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party under this Guaranty, each Guarantor shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Requirement of Law, indemnify, defend and save and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and each other Guaranteed Party from and against, and shall pay on demand, any and all damages, losses, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) that may be suffered or incurred by the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party in connection with or as a result of any failure of any Guaranteed Obligations to be the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with their terms. The obligations of such Guarantor under this paragraph shall survive the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and termination of this Guaranty in accordance with its terms.

17. Right of Setoff; Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Venue; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL; Judgment Currency. THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. Without limiting the general applicability of the foregoing and the terms of the other Loan Documents to this Guaranty and the parties hereto, the terms of Sections 10.08, 10.14, 10.15 and 10.18 of the Credit Agreement are incorporated herein by reference, mutatis mutandis, with each reference to the “Borrower” therein (whether express or by reference to the Borrower as a “party” thereto) being a reference to the Guarantors, and the parties hereto agree to such terms.

18. Counterparts; Electronic Execution. This Guaranty may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Guaranty by telecopy or other electronic imaging means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Guaranty.

19. Additional Guarantors. At any time after the date of this Guaranty, one or more additional Persons may become a party hereto by executing and delivering to the Administrative

Agent a Joinder Agreement pursuant to Section 6.22 of the Credit Agreement. Immediately upon such execution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement (and without any further action), each such additional Person will become a party to this Guaranty as a “Guarantor” and have all of the rights and obligations of a Guarantor hereunder and this Guaranty shall be deemed amended by such Joinder Agreement.

Each Payor promises also to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount hereof at said office from the date hereof until paid at such rate per annum as shall be agreed upon from time to time by any Payor and any Payee.

Each Payor shall pay the unpaid principal balance of this Note and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, on demand of any Payee.

Whenever any payment on this Note shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest, if any, on this Note.

Each Payor shall have the right to pay or prepay all or any part of the unpaid principal amount outstanding hereunder without premium or penalty at any time; provided, that (i) no Event of Default under clauses (a), (b) and (f) of Section 8.01 of the Credit Agreement shall have occurred and be continuing and (ii) interest, if any, shall be paid on the amount prepaid to and including the date of prepayment.

3.2. Title; No Other Liens. Such Grantor owns or licenses or otherwise has the right to use each item of the Collateral free and clear of any and all Liens, including Liens arising as a result of such Grantor becoming bound (as a result of merger or otherwise) as grantor under a security agreement entered into by another Person, except for Liens expressly permitted by Section 7.02 of the Credit Agreement.

Schedule 3.7(b) sets forth under the heading “Pledged Notes” all of the Pledged Notes owned by any Grantor as of the Closing Date, and all of such Pledged Notes have been duly authorized, authenticated or issued, and delivered and are the legal, valid and binding obligation of the issuers thereof enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principals of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law, and constitute all of the issued and outstanding indebtedness evidenced by an instrument or certificated security of the respective issuers thereof owing to such Grantor.

(b) The shares of Pledged Equity Interests pledged by such Grantor hereunder constitute all of the issued and outstanding shares of all classes of Stock and Stock Equivalents owned by such Grantor in each issuer thereof (other than Excluded Stock).

10

(c) The Pledged Equity Interests have been duly and validly issued and, except as set forth on Schedule 3.7(a) hereto, are fully paid and nonassessable (to the extent applicable).

3.9. Intellectual Property.

(a) Schedule 3.9(a) lists all Copyrights, Patents, and Trademarks which are registered with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office or the U.S. Copyright Office or are the subject of an application for registration with any such Governmental Authority, in each case which is owned by such Grantor in its own name on the date hereof (collectively, the “Owned Intellectual Property”). Except as set forth in Schedule 3.9(a), such Grantor is the exclusive owner of the entire and unencumbered right, title and interest in and to all material Owned Intellectual Property and is otherwise entitled to grant to others the right to use (and, where applicable, itself use) all such material Owned Intellectual Property. Such Grantor has a valid and enforceable right to use all material Intellectual Property used by, or licensed to others by, such Grantor which is not Owned Intellectual Property either pursuant to one of the written material Copyright Licenses, Patent Licenses, Trademark Licenses, and/or Trade Secret Licenses listed on Schedule 3.9(a) and subject to the terms thereof (collectively, the “Licensed Intellectual Property”) or otherwise.

11

(b) On the date hereof all Owned Intellectual Property and all Licensed Intellectual Property, in each case, which is material to such Grantor’s business (collectively, the “Material Intellectual Property”), is valid, subsisting, unexpired and enforceable and has not been abandoned. The operation of such Grantor’s business as currently conducted or as contemplated to be conducted does not infringe, constitute a misappropriation of, dilute, or otherwise violate the Intellectual Property rights of any other Person where the same would have a Material Adverse Effect.

(c) No claim has been asserted that the use of the Material Intellectual Property does or may infringe upon or constitute a misappropriation of the rights of any other Person.

(d) To such Grantor’s knowledge, no decision or judgment has been rendered by any Governmental Authority or arbitrator in the United States or outside the United States which would materially limit or cancel the validity or enforceability of, or such Grantor’s rights in, any Material Intellectual Property. Such Grantor is not aware of any uses of any item of Material Intellectual Property that could reasonably be expected to lead to such item becoming invalid or unenforceable including unauthorized trademark uses by third parties and uses which were not supported by the goodwill of the business connected with Trademarks and Trademark Licenses.

(e) No action or proceeding is pending, or, to such Grantor’s knowledge, threatened, on the date hereof (i) seeking to limit, cancel or invalidate any Owned Intellectual Property, (ii) alleging that any services provided by, processes used by, or products manufactured or sold by such Grantor infringe any Patent, Trademark, Copyright, or misappropriate any Trade Secret or violate any other right of any other Person, or (iii) alleging that any Material Intellectual Property (A) owned by such Grantor or (B) licensed by such Grantor (to such Grantor’s knowledge), is being licensed or sublicensed in violation of any intellectual property or any other right of any other Person, in each case, which, if adversely determined, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. To such Grantor’s knowledge, no Person is engaging in any activity that infringes upon or misappropriates, or is otherwise an unauthorized use of, any Material Intellectual Property owned by Grantor. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents will not result in the termination of any of the Material Intellectual Property.

(f) With respect to each Copyright License, Trademark License, Trade Secret License and Patent License which license constitutes Material Intellectual Property or the loss of which could otherwise have a Material Adverse Effect: (i) such license is binding and enforceable against the other party thereto; (ii) such license will not cease to be valid and binding and in full force and effect on terms identical to those currently in effect as a result of the rights and interests granted herein (including, but not limited to, the enforceability of such rights and interests with respect to each such license), nor will the grant of such rights and interests (or the enforceability thereof) constitute a breach or default under such license or otherwise give the licensor or licensee a right to terminate such license; (iii) such Grantor has not received any notice of termination or cancellation under such license; (iv) such Grantor has not received any notice of a breach or default under such license, which breach or default has not been cured; and (v) such Grantor is not in breach or default in any material respect, and no event has occurred

12

that, with notice and/or lapse of time, would constitute such a breach or default or permit termination, modification or acceleration under such license.

(g) Except as set forth on Schedule 3.9(g), such Grantor has made all filings and recordations and paid all required fees and taxes to maintain each and every item of registered Material Intellectual Property in full force and effect and to protect and maintain its interest therein.

(h) To the knowledge of such Grantor, (i) none of the Trade Secrets that constitute Material Intellectual Property of such Grantor have been used, divulged, disclosed or appropriated to the detriment of such Grantor for the benefit of any other Person without permission of such Grantor; and (ii) no employee, independent contractor or agent of such Grantor has misappropriated any Trade Secrets of any other Person in the course of the performance of his or her duties as an employee, independent contractor or agent of such Grantor where the same would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(i) Such Grantor has taken commercially reasonable steps to exercise quality control over any licensee of such Grantor’s Trademarks.

3.11. Contracts. No amount payable to such Grantor under or in connection with any Contract which has a value in excess of $1,000,000 individually or $5,000,000 in the aggregate is evidenced by any Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper which has not been delivered to the Administrative Agent or constitutes Electronic Chattel Paper that is not under the control (within the meaning of Section 9-105 of the New York UCC) of the Administrative Agent.

(b) If any of the Collateral having a value in excess of $1,000,000 individually or $5,000,000 in the aggregate is or shall become “Electronic Chattel Paper” such Grantor shall ensure that (i) a single authoritative copy shall exist which is unique, identifiable, unalterable (except as provided in clauses (iii), (iv) and (v) of this paragraph), (ii) such authoritative copy identifies the Administrative Agent as the assignee and is communicated to and maintained by the Administrative Agent or its designee, (iii) copies or revisions that add or change the assignee of the authoritative copy can only be made with the participation of the Administrative Agent, (iv) each copy of the authoritative copy and any copy of a copy is readily identifiable as a copy and that is not the authoritative copy; (v) any revision of the authoritative copy is readily identifiable as an authorized or unauthorized revision, and (vi) the Administrative Agent has “control” within the meaning of the New York UCC of such Electronic Chattel Paper.

4.4. Payment of Obligations. Such Grantor shall pay and discharge or otherwise satisfy at or before maturity or before they become delinquent, as the case may be, all taxes,

14

assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon the Collateral or in respect of income or profits therefrom, as well as all claims of any kind (including claims for labor, materials and supplies) against or with respect to the Collateral, except that no such tax, assessment or charge need be paid if (a) the amount or validity thereof is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, reserves in conformity with GAAP with respect thereto have been provided on the books of such Grantor and such proceedings could not reasonably be expected to result in the sale, forfeiture or loss of any material portion of the Collateral or any interest therein, or (b) the failure to so pay and discharge would not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Such Grantor shall not (either itself or through licensees) do any act whereby any material portion of such Copyrights may fall into the public domain.

(d) Such Grantor shall notify the Administrative Agent promptly if it knows or suspects that any application or registration relating to any Material Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor may become forfeited, abandoned or dedicated to the public, or of any adverse determination (including the institution of, or any such determination in, any proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any court or tribunal in any country) regarding such Grantor’s ownership of, or the validity of, any such Material Intellectual Property or such Grantor’s right to register the same or to own and maintain the same.

(i) Such Grantor agrees that, should it obtain an ownership interest in any item of intellectual property which is not, as of the Closing Date, a part of the Intellectual Property Collateral (the “After-Acquired Intellectual Property”), (i) the provisions of Section 2.1 shall automatically apply thereto, (ii) any such After-Acquired Intellectual Property, and in the

(d) Such Grantor shall not permit to become effective in any document creating, governing or providing for any permit, lease, license or contract, a provision that would limit the creation, perfection or scope of, or exercise or enforcement of remedies in connection with, a Lien on such permit, lease, license or contract in favor of the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties unless such Grantor believes, in its reasonable judgment, that such prohibition is usual and customary in transactions of such type.

20

Such Grantor shall advise the Administrative Agent promptly after such Grantor becomes aware of any Commercial Tort Claim held by such Grantor individually or in the aggregate in excess of $1,000,000 and shall promptly execute a supplement to this Agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent to grant a security interest in such Commercial Tort Claim to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties.

SECTION 5. REMEDIAL PROVISIONS

5.1. Certain Matters Relating to Receivables.

(a) The Administrative Agent shall have the right (but shall in no way be obligated), at its own expense if an Event of Default does not then exist, to make test verifications of the Receivables that are included in the Collateral in any manner and through any medium that it reasonably considers advisable, and each Grantor shall furnish all such assistance and information as the Administrative Agent may reasonably require in connection with such test verifications.

(b) Subject to the rights of the Administrative Agent under Section 5.2(b), each Grantor hereby agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to continue to collect all amounts due or to become due to such Grantor under the Receivables and any Supporting Obligation and diligently exercise each material right it may have under any Receivable and any Supporting Obligation, in each case, at its own expense. If required by the Administrative Agent at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any payments of Receivables, when collected by any Grantor, (i) shall be promptly (and, in any event, within two Business Days) deposited by such Grantor in the exact form received, duly endorsed by such Grantor to the Administrative Agent if required, in a Collateral Account maintained under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent, subject to withdrawal by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Secured Parties only as provided in Section 5.5, and (ii) until so turned over, shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Grantor. Each such deposit of Proceeds of Receivables shall be accompanied by a report identifying in reasonable detail the nature and source of the payments included in the deposit.

(c) At the Administrative Agent’s request but subject to the confidentiality provisions set forth in the Credit Agreement, during the continuance of an Event of Default each Grantor shall make available to the Administrative Agent original and other documents evidencing, and relating to, the agreements and transactions which gave rise to the Receivables that are included in the Collateral, including original orders, invoices and shipping receipts.

5.2. Communications with Obligors; Grantors Remain Liable.

(a) The Administrative Agent in its own name or in the name of others may at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default communicate with obligors under the Receivables and parties to the Contracts to verify with them to the Administrative Agent’s satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any Receivables or Contracts.

21

(b) The Administrative Agent may at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default notify, or require any Grantor to so notify, the Account Debtor or counterparty on any Receivable or Contract of the security interest of the Administrative Agent therein. In addition, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may upon written notice to the applicable Grantor, notify, or require any Grantor to notify, the Account Debtor or counterparty to make all payments under the Receivables and/or Contracts directly to the Administrative Agent.

(c) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable under each of the Receivables and Contracts to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise thereto. No Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto) or Contract by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by any Secured Party of any payment relating thereto, nor shall any Secured Party be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of any Grantor under or pursuant to any Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto) or Contract, to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party thereunder, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

5.3. Pledged Securities.

(a) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Administrative Agent shall have given notice to the relevant Grantor of the Administrative Agent’s intent to exercise its corresponding rights pursuant to Section 5.3(b), each Grantor shall be permitted to receive all cash dividends paid in respect of the Pledged Equity Interests and all payments made in respect of the Pledged Notes, to the extent not prohibited by the Credit Agreement, and to exercise all voting, corporate and other ownership (or other similar) rights with respect to the Pledged Securities; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or corporate or other ownership (or other similar) right exercised or other action taken which would materially impair the Collateral or which would be inconsistent with or result in any violation of any provision of the Credit Agreement, this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(b) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Administrative Agent shall have given notice to the relevant Grantor of the Administrative Agent’s intent to exercise its rights pursuant to this Section 5.3(b): (i) all rights of each Grantor to exercise or refrain from exercising the voting and other consensual rights which it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant hereto shall cease and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Administrative Agent who shall thereupon have the sole right, but shall be under no obligation, to exercise or refrain from exercising such voting and other consensual rights; (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have the right, without notice to any Grantor (where permitted by applicable law), to transfer all or any portion of the Investment Property to its name or the name of its nominee or agent; and (iii) the Administrative Agent shall have the right, without notice to any Grantor, to exchange any certificates or instruments representing any Investment Property for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations. In order

22

to permit the Administrative Agent to exercise the voting and other consensual rights which it may be entitled to exercise pursuant hereto and to receive all dividends and other distributions which it may be entitled to receive hereunder each Grantor shall promptly execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to the Administrative Agent all proxies, dividend payment orders and other instruments as the Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably request and each Grantor acknowledges that the Administrative Agent may utilize the power of attorney set forth herein.

(c) Each Grantor hereby authorizes and instructs each issuer of any Pledged Securities pledged by such Grantor hereunder to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from the Administrative Agent in writing that (A) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (B) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or further instructions from such Grantor, and each Grantor agrees that each such issuer shall be fully protected in so complying, and (ii) upon any such instruction following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, pay any dividends or other payments with respect to the Investment Property, including Pledged Securities, directly to the Administrative Agent.

5.4. Proceeds to be Turned Over To Administrative Agent. In addition to the rights of the Secured Parties specified in Section 5.1 with respect to payments of Receivables, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, all Proceeds received by any Grantor consisting of cash, cash equivalents, checks and other near-cash items shall, if requested in writing by the Administrative Agent, be held by such Grantor in trust for the Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly endorsed by such Grantor to the Administrative Agent, if required). All Proceeds received by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a Collateral Account maintained under its sole dominion and control. All Proceeds while held by the Administrative Agent in a Collateral Account (or by such Grantor in trust for the Secured Parties) shall continue to be held as collateral security for all the Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided in Section 5.5.

5.5. Application of Proceeds. At such intervals as may be agreed upon by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, or, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at any time at the Administrative Agent’s election, the Administrative Agent may apply all or any part of the net Proceeds (after deducting fees and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses as provided in Section 5.6) constituting Collateral realized through the exercise by the Administrative Agent of its remedies hereunder, whether or not held in any Collateral Account, and any proceeds of the guarantee set forth in the Guaranty, in payment of the Obligations in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

5.6. Code and Other Remedies.

(a) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the New York UCC

23

(whether or not the New York UCC applies to the affected Collateral) or its rights under any other applicable law or in equity. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may sell, lease, license, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of any Secured Party or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. Each Secured Party shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in any Grantor, which right or equity is hereby waived and released. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by applicable law) all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten days notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Administrative Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. The Administrative Agent may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral. The Administrative Agent may specifically disclaim or modify any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be considered to adversely effect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. Each Grantor agrees that it would not be commercially unreasonable for the Administrative Agent to dispose of the Collateral or any portion thereof by using Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor hereby waives any claims against the Administrative Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Administrative Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree. Each Grantor further agrees, at the Administrative Agent’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Administrative Agent at places which the Administrative Agent shall reasonably select, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. To the extent permitted by applicable law, and so long as an Event of Default is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to enter onto the property where any Collateral is located and take possession thereof with or without judicial process.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Section 5.6, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral

24

or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Secured Parties hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations and only after such application and after the payment by the Administrative Agent of any other amounts required by any provision of law, including Section 9-615(a) of the New York UCC, need the Administrative Agent account for the surplus, if any, to any Grantor. If the Administrative Agent sells any of the Collateral upon credit, the Grantor will be credited only with payments actually made by the purchaser and received by the Administrative Agent and applied to indebtedness of the purchaser. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, the Administrative Agent may resell the Collateral and the Grantor shall be credited with proceeds of the sale. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against any Secured Party arising out of the exercise by any Secured Party of any rights hereunder.

(c) In the event of any disposition of any of the Intellectual Property, the goodwill of the business connected with and symbolized by any Trademarks subject to such disposition shall be included, and the applicable Grantor shall, to the extent commercially reasonable and feasible under the circumstances, supply the Administrative Agent or its designee with such Grantor’s know-how and expertise, and with documents and things embodying the same, relating to the manufacture, distribution, advertising and sale of products or the provision of services relating to any Intellectual Property subject to such disposition, and such Grantor’s customer lists and other records and documents relating to such Intellectual Property and to the manufacture, distribution, advertising and sale of such products and services.

5.7. Private Sales, etc.

(a) Each Grantor recognizes that the Administrative Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Equity Interests, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Equity Interests for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would agree to do so.

(b) Each Grantor agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of the Pledged Equity Interests pursuant to this Section 5.7 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all other applicable Requirements of Law. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 5.7 will cause irreparable injury to the Secured Parties, that the Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 5.7 shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and such Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to

25

assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the Credit Agreement or a defense of payment.

5.8. Deficiency. Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay its Obligations and the reasonable fees and disbursements of any outside attorneys employed by any Secured Party to collect such deficiency.

5.9. BWXT Entities. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent will not take any action with respect to any pledge of Stock or Stock Equivalents of any Person that directly or indirectly owns Stock or Stock Equivalents in any BWXT Entity if such action would constitute or result in the change of ownership of any Person that directly or indirectly owns Stock in a BWXT Entity if such change of ownership would require under then-existing law or any material contract, the prior approval of the U.S. Navy, the U.S. Department of Energy or any other Governmental Authority, without first obtaining such approval. Each Grantor covenants that, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, it will take all actions as may be requested by the Administrative Agent to obtain such approval.

SECTION 6. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

6.1. Administrative Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact, etc.

(a) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or in its own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby gives the Administrative Agent the power and right, on behalf of such Grantor, without notice to or assent by such Grantor, to do any or all of the following:

(i) in the name of such Grantor or its own name, or otherwise, take possession of and endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due under any Receivable or Contract or with respect to any other Collateral and file any claim or take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any Receivable or Contract or with respect to any other Collateral whenever payable;

(ii) in the case of any Intellectual Property, execute and deliver, and have recorded, any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Administrative Agent may request to evidence the Secured Parties’ security interest in such Intellectual Property and the goodwill and general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby;

26

(iii) pay or discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral, effect any repairs or any insurance called for by the terms of this Agreement and pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof;

(iv) execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section 5.7, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral; and

(v) (1) direct any party liable for any payment under any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent or as the Administrative Agent shall direct; (2) ask or demand for, collect, and receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral; (3) sign and endorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with any of the Collateral; (4) commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any portion thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral; (5) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against such Grantor with respect to any Collateral; (6) settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate; (7) assign any Copyright, Patent or Trademark (along with the goodwill of the business to which any such Copyright, Patent or Trademark pertains), throughout the world for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as the Administrative Agent shall in its sole discretion determine; and (8) generally, sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Administrative Agent’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Administrative Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Secured Parties’ security interests therein and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.

Anything in this Section 6.1(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, the Administrative Agent agrees that, except as provided in Section 6.1(b), it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 6.1(a) unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

(b) If any Grantor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein, the Administrative Agent, at its option, but without any obligation so to do, may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement; provided, however, that unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or time is of the essence, the Administrative Agent shall not exercise this power without first making demand on the Grantor and the Grantor failing to promptly comply therewith.

27

(c) The expenses of the Administrative Agent incurred in connection with actions undertaken as provided in this Section 6.1, together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the rate per annum at which interest would then be payable on past due Committed Loans that are Base Rate Loans under the Credit Agreement, from the date of payment by the Administrative Agent to the date reimbursed by the relevant Grantor, shall be payable by such Grantor to the Administrative Agent on demand.

(d) Each Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated and the security interests created hereby are released.

6.2. Duty of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the New York UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Administrative Agent deals with similar property for its own account. Neither the Administrative Agent, nor any other Secured Party nor any of their respective officers, directors, partners, employees, agents, attorneys and other advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Secured Parties hereunder are solely to protect the Secured Parties’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon any Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, partners, employees, agents, attorneys and other advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except to the extent that any such act or failure to act is found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from their own gross negligence or willful misconduct in breach of a duty owed to such Grantor.

6.3. Execution of Financing Statements. Each Grantor acknowledges that pursuant to Section 9-509(b) of the New York UCC and any other applicable law, each Grantor authorizes the Administrative Agent to file or record financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, and other filing or recording documents or instruments with respect to the Collateral, without the signature of such Grantor, in such form and in such offices as the Administrative Agent reasonably determines appropriate to perfect or maintain the perfection of the security interests of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement. Each Grantor agrees that such financing statements may describe the collateral in the same manner as described in this Agreement or as “all assets,” “all personal property” or words of similar effect, regardless of whether or not the Collateral includes all assets or all personal property of such Grantor, or such other description as the Administrative Agent, in its sole judgment, determines is necessary or advisable that is of an equal or lesser scope or with greater detail. A photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement shall, where permitted by applicable law, be sufficient as a financing statement or other filing or recording document or instrument for filing or recording in any jurisdiction.

28

6.4. Authority of Administrative Agent. Each Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Administrative Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Administrative Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall, as between the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, be governed by the Credit Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Administrative Agent and the Grantors, the Administrative Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Secured Parties with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and no Grantor shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

6.5. Appointment of Co-Administrative Agents. At any time or from time to time, in order to comply with any applicable requirement of law, the Administrative Agent may appoint another bank or trust company or one of more other Persons, either to act as co-agent or agents on behalf of the Secured Parties with such power and authority as may be necessary for the effectual operation of the provisions hereof and which may be specified in the instrument of appointment (which may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, include provisions for indemnification and similar protections of such co-agent or separate agent).

SECTION 7. MISCELLANEOUS

7.1. Amendments in Writing. None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except by a written instrument executed by each affected Grantor and the Administrative Agent, subject to any consents required under Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement; provided that any provision of this Agreement imposing obligations on any Grantor may be waived by the Administrative Agent in a written instrument executed thereby.

7.2. Notices. All notices and communications hereunder shall be given to the addresses and otherwise made in accordance with Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement; provided that notices and communications to any Grantor other than the Borrower shall be directed to such Grantor, at the address of the Borrower.

7.3. No Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies. No Secured Party shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Section 7.1), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of any Secured Party, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by any Secured Party of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which such Secured Party would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

7.4. Enforcement Expenses; Indemnification.

29

(a) Each Grantor agrees to pay or reimburse each Secured Party for its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in collecting against such Grantor under the guarantee contained in the Guaranty or otherwise enforcing or preserving any rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Grantor is a party, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of outside counsel to each Secured Party and outside counsel to the Administrative Agent.

(c) Each Grantor agrees to pay, and to hold the Secured Parties harmless from, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits and reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement to the extent the Borrower would be required to do so pursuant to Section 10.04 of the Credit Agreement.

(d) The agreements in this Section shall survive repayment of the Obligations and all other amounts payable under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

7.5. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each Grantor and shall inure to the benefit of the Secured Parties and their permitted successors and assigns; provided that, except as otherwise permitted by the Credit Agreement, no Grantor may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be null and void.

7.6. Set-off; Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Venue; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. Without limiting the general applicability of the foregoing and the terms of the other Loan Documents to this Agreement and the parties hereto, the terms of Sections 10.08, 10.14 and 10.15 of the Credit Agreement are incorporated herein by reference, mutatis mutandis, with each reference to the “Borrower” therein (whether express or by reference to the Borrower as a “party” thereto) being a reference to the Grantors, and the parties hereto agree to such terms.

7.7. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by facsimile), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.

7.8. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such

30

prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

7.9. Section Headings. The Section headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof.

7.10. Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the agreement of the Grantors, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by any Secured Party relative to subject matter hereof and thereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents.

7.11. Acknowledgments. Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that:

(a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party;

(b) no Secured Party has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to any Grantor arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Grantors, on the one hand, and the Secured Parties, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and

(c) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Secured Parties or among the Grantors and the Secured Parties.

7.13. Releases; Termination of this Agreement.

(a) At such time as the Loans and the other Obligations (other than (i) contingent indemnification obligations and (ii) Obligations in respect of Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements either (A) as to which arrangements satisfactory to the applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank shall have been made or (B) notice has not been received by the Administrative Agent from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank that such amounts are then due and payable) shall have been paid in full, the Commitments under the Credit Agreement have been terminated or expired and each Letter of Credit issued under the Credit Agreement shall be Cash Collateralized or no longer outstanding (other than Letters of Credit as to which other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the applicable L/C Issuer shall have been made), the Collateral shall be released from the Liens created hereby, and this Agreement and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Administrative Agent and each Grantor hereunder shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any

31

act by any party, and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the Grantors. At the request and sole expense of any Grantor following any such termination, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to such Grantor any Collateral held by the Administrative Agent hereunder, and execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.

(b) If any of the Collateral shall be sold or otherwise disposed of by any Grantor in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement, then the Administrative Agent, at the request and sole expense of such Grantor, shall execute and deliver to such Grantor all releases or other documents reasonably necessary for the release of the Liens created hereby on such Collateral. At the request and sole expense of the Borrower, a Grantor shall be released from its obligations hereunder in the event that all the Stock and Stock Equivalents in such Grantor shall be sold or otherwise disposed of in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement; provided that the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent, at least three Business Days (or such lesser period permitted in writing by the Administrative Agent) prior to the date of the proposed release, a written request for such release identifying the relevant Grantor and the terms of the relevant sale or other disposition in reasonable detail, including the price thereof and any expenses incurred in connection therewith, together with a certification by the Borrower stating that such transaction is in compliance with the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(c) After the occurrence and during the continuance of Collateral Release Event and in accordance with Section 10.19(a) of the Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent, at the request and sole expense of the Borrower, shall promptly execute and deliver to the Borrower all releases and other documents, and take such other action, reasonably necessary for the release of the Liens created hereby or by any other Security Instrument on the applicable Collateral

(d) Each Grantor acknowledges that it is not authorized to file any financing statement or amendment or termination statement with respect to any financing statement originally filed in connection herewith without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, subject to such Grantor’s rights under Sections 9-509(d)(2) and 9-518 of the New York UCC.

2.2 Financial Statements.

2.3 Corporate Power; Authorization; Enforceable Agreement.

(a) The Company has all corporate power and authority to execute and deliver each Transaction Document to which it is a party, and to perform its obligations thereunder. Other than the Stockholder Approvals and the filing of the Certificates of Designation and the Charter Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, all corporate action on the part of the Company, its officers, directors and stockholders necessary for the due authorization, valid execution and delivery of each Transaction Document, the performance of all obligations of the Company thereunder, and the authorization, issuance (or reservation for issuance), sale and delivery of the Preferred Stock and Warrants being sold hereunder (and the shares of Preferred Stock issuable in respect of dividends thereon from time to time in accordance with the Certificates of Designation) and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and Series B Common Stock and exercise of Warrants, has been taken. The Company has duly and validly executed and delivered this Agreement and the Strategic Relationship Agreement. On the First Closing date, each other Transaction Document to which the Company will be a party will be duly and validly executed and delivered by the Company. This Agreement and the Strategic Relationship Agreement are, and each other Transaction Document to which the Company will be a party (when executed and delivered by the Company) will be, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the Investors, valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, subject to: (i) laws limiting the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief and other equitable remedies; (ii) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect generally relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally; and (iii) public policy limitations on the enforceability of indemnification provisions (clause (i) – (iii) collectively, the “Enforceability Exceptions”). The sale of the Preferred Stock and the Warrants, and the subsequent conversion of the Preferred Stock and Series B Common Stock into Common Stock or exercise of Warrants for Common Stock, are not subject to any preemptive rights or rights of first offer and will not trigger any anti-dilution provisions in the Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws or any other agreement.

If mutually agreed by the Parties to contest or resist the objections beyond such investigative processes, then each of the Investors and the Company shall cooperate and use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to contest and resist any such legal proceeding, and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any order of any Governmental Authority, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents or restricts consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. For purposes of this Section 7.4(b), the term “commercially reasonable efforts” shall not require any Party to provide for the license, sale or other disposition or holding separate of any shares or assets of such Party, or to agree to the imposition of any material limitation on the ability of any of them to freely conduct their business or effectuate the business purposes of this Agreement; and in no event shall the Company engage in such actions without the prior written consent of the Investors.

7.5 Other Government Approvals.

(a) The Investors and the Company shall cooperate with each other and shall cause their agents and representatives to cooperate with each other to determine and timely make any pre-Closing and post-Closing submissions, applications or notices for approvals or other consents from any Governmental Authority, other than those set forth in Sections 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, or 7.5(b)-(d). For the avoidance of doubt, such Sections (and not this Section 7.5(a)) shall apply to the approvals and other matters referenced in such Sections.

(b) The Company and Toshiba shall: (i) make or cause to be made a joint voluntary notice to CFIUS with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby as promptly as practicable, (ii) comply at the earliest practicable date with any requests from CFIUS or other Governmental Authority for additional information, documents or other materials required or related to the CFIUS notice and any subsequent investigation, and (iii) cooperate with each other in connection with any such filing (including, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, providing copies of drafts of such filing to the non-filing Parties prior to filing and considering all reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested in connection therewith) and in connection with resolving any inquires from CFIUS or any other Governmental Authority with respect to the CFIUS filing or any investigation with respect to any such filing.

(c) If (A) following consultation with CFIUS, Toshiba and the Company, B&W shall reasonably determine that its failure to make a voluntary notice to CFIUS with respect to the Transactions or to be a party to the joint voluntary notice to CFIUS referenced in Section 7.5(b) could cause the satisfaction of the condition set forth in Section 4.1(c) hereof to be materially delayed or fail, or (B) CFIUS has formally requested that B&W make a voluntary notice to CFIUS or be a party to the joint voluntary notice to CFIUS with respect to the Transactions, or CFIUS determines that in the absence of the foregoing, it will initiate an investigation with respect to the Transactions (and after consultation with B&W, CFIUS has not withdrawn such request or determination), B&W shall (i) after further consultation with Toshiba and the Company, as promptly as practicable, within 14 days thereafter, unless the 14th day is prior to July 15, 2010, in which case, on July 15, 2010 (x) make a voluntary notice to CFIUS, (y) make a voluntary joint notice to CFIUS with Toshiba and the Company, or (z) if such notice has already been submitted, submit such documentation as may be necessary to become a party to the notice, and otherwise provide sufficient information to CFIUS to enable CFIUS to review B&W’s proposed involvement in the transactions contemplated hereby, and (ii) the terms set forth in Sections 7.5(b)(ii) and 7.5(b)(iii) shall apply to B&W as if B&W were specifically mentioned therein.

(d) Each Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to furnish to the other Parties all information required for any CFIUS notice or other filing to be made pursuant to such notice under any applicable Law in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Party shall promptly inform the other Parties hereto of any oral communication with, and provide copies of written communications with, any Governmental Authority regarding any CFIUS notice or investigation. No Party hereto shall independently participate in any meeting or discussion, either in person or by telephone, with any Governmental Authority in respect of any such filings, investigation or other inquiry without giving the other Parties hereto prior notice of the meeting and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority, the opportunity to attend and/or participate. Subject to applicable Law, the Parties hereto will consult and cooperate with one another in connection with any analyses, appearances, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals made or submitted by or on behalf of any Party hereto relating to the CFIUS notice and any investigation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Investors and the Company each reserve the right to limit disclosure of any document, or portion thereof, submitted to any Governmental Authority with respect to any CFIUS notice to the Investors’ and the Company’s outside counsel only. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Investors and the Company each reserve the right to limit disclosure of any document, or portion thereof, submitted to any Governmental Authority with respect to any CFIUS notice to the Investors’ and the Company’s outside counsel only.

7.6 Negative Covenants Prior to First Closing. From the date of this Agreement through the First Closing, the Company agrees that except as expressly permitted by any Transaction Document, or as required by applicable Law or the regulations and requirements of the New York Stock Exchange, unless each Investor otherwise grants its prior written approval, the Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to: (i) conduct its operations in the ordinary and usual course of its business; (ii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep available the services of the current officers of the Company and preserve the goodwill and current relationships of the Company with customers, suppliers and other Persons with which the Company has significant business relations; (iii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to preserve substantially intact its business organization; and (iv) comply in all material respects with applicable Law. Without limiting the foregoing, and as a non-exclusive extension thereof, except as expressly permitted by any Transaction Document, as required by applicable Law or the regulations and requirements of the New York Stock Exchange or with the prior written approval of each Investor (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), from the date of this Agreement through the First Closing, the Company shall not:

(a) Declare, or make payment in respect of, any dividend or other distribution upon any shares of capital stock of the Company;

(b) Reclassify, combine, split, subdivide or amend the terms of, or, other than with respect to capital stock issued pursuant to a Company Plan, redeem, repurchase or acquire any capital stock of the Company

or any of its Subsidiaries;

(c) Amend the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws;

(d) Other than capital stock pursuant to a Company Plan in existence as of the date of this Agreement, as may be amended, establish a new Company Plan, authorize or issue any capital stock, or debt securities convertible into capital stock, of the Company;

(e) except as required by the Board’s fiduciary duties, merge or consolidate the Company with any Person; or

(f) make or authorize any capital expenditures in excess of $175,000,000 in the aggregate prior to December 31, 2010.

7.7 Use of Proceeds. Prior to the Third Closing, the Company shall apply the net proceeds from the issuance and sale of the Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock for general corporate purposes and for expenditures on ACP, and in a manner consistent with the Strategic Plan.

7.8 Reservation of Common Stock; Issuance of Shares of Common Stock. For as long as any Preferred Stock, Class B Common Stock or Warrants remain outstanding, subject to the Stockholder Approvals, the Company shall at all times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued Series C Preferred Stock, Class B Common Stock and Ordinary Common Stock or shares of Series C Preferred Stock, Class B Common Stock and Ordinary Common Stock held in treasury by the Company, for the purpose of effecting the conversion or redemption of the Preferred Stock and the Class B Common Stock or permitting the exercise of Warrants, as subject to the Share Issuance Limitation (as such term is defined in the Certificates of Designation), if any, the full number of shares of Ordinary Common Stock, Class B Common Stock and Series C Preferred Stock then issuable upon the conversion or redemption of all Preferred Stock and Class B Common Stock and the full exercise of all outstanding Warrants (in each case, after giving effect to all anti-dilution adjustments) then outstanding. For the purposes hereof, reservations hereunder shall be based on the Base Price equal to the closing price of the Company’s Ordinary Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the second to last Trading Day prior to the date of this Agreement, provided, however, if the Base Price for the date that is four Trading Days prior to the First Closing, the Second Closing or the Third Closing or on June 30 of any year is less than such amount, then that lower amount shall be used as the Base Price for purposes of this calculation. To the extent that the number of shares reserved or authorized by the Company is not sufficient to meet its obligations under this Section 7.8 at the date set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take such actions as are necessary to reserve or authorize such shares in sufficient amounts to meet the Company’s obligations hereunder, including to the extent necessary and as expeditiously as reasonably possible, amendments to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation. All shares of Common Stock and Series C Preferred Stock delivered upon conversion or redemption of the Preferred Stock or the Class B Common Stock or the exercise of Warrants shall have been duly authorized and validly issued and shall be fully paid and nonassessable, and shall be free from preemptive rights, other than established by the Transaction Documents, and free of any Lien or adverse claim. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the shares of Ordinary Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or redemption of the Preferred Stock and the Class B Common Stock and the exercise of the Warrants received at the Closings to be approved for listing by an Approved Market in connection with the applicable Closing, subject to official notice of issuance.

7.9 Filing of Certificates of Designation. The Company shall file with the Secretary of State for the State of Delaware (i) the Series B-1 Certificate of Designation and the Series C Certificate of Designation and (ii) the Series B-2 Certificate of Designation, at or prior to the time that the closing conditions for the First Closing and the Second Closing, respectively, are satisfied (other than the closing condition related to such filing).

7.10 Special Approval Rights.

(a) The Company agrees that, between the First Closing and the earlier of (i) the Third Closing or (ii) the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10, so long as either Investor maintains its Minimum

Preferred Holdings the Company shall not (and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to) take or agree to take any of the following actions without the prior written approval of the holders of a majority of the Preferred Stock then outstanding (voting together as a single class) (which decisions shall not be unreasonably delayed):

(i) any issuance of equity securities of the Company senior to or pari passu with the Preferred Stock, except as the Board determines is necessary to obtain the Conditional Commitment or to consummate the DOE Financial Closing;

(ii) the undertaking of any new business inconsistent with the Strategic Plan;

(iii) any incurrence of Indebtedness by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except as permitted under the terms of the Credit Facility or a Transaction Document or as provided in the Strategic Plan, and excluding debt incurred effective upon, and for purposes of funding, the DOE Financial Closing;

(iv) any redemption by the Company of the Preferred Stock, except for any Permitted Redemption;

(v) any payment of Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness that can be reborrowed under the terms of the applicable credit facility, or any such payment made in order to consummate the DOE Financial Closing or a refinancing of the Credit Facility complying with clause (iii)) by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the stated maturity thereof; or

(vi) except as provided in the Strategic Plan, any (A) disposition of assets or business of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except as permitted under the terms of the Credit Facility, (B) acquisition, binding capital commitment, guarantee of third-party obligations or investment by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except as permitted under the terms of the Credit Facility, or (C) joint venture involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or

(vii) Any liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

For purposes of this Section 7.10, the exceptions based upon the Credit Facility shall apply whether or not such facility remains outstanding.

(b) An Investor will be deemed to maintain its “Minimum Preferred Holdings” for purposes of this Section 7.10 if such Investor continues to hold shares of Preferred Stock representing no less than 75% of the aggregate initial liquidation preference of the Preferred Stock issued to such Investor in the First Closing and, if the Second Closing has occurred, the Second Closing (excluding for purposes of this definition shares of Preferred Stock issued to the Investors as payment of dividends on the Preferred Stock).

7.11 Stockholder Meeting; Proxy Materials.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable following the Second Closing (or earlier at the Company’s election), the Company shall prepare and file with the Commission a proxy statement relating to the meeting of the Company’s stockholders to be held in connection with the Stockholder Approvals (together with any amendments thereof or supplements thereto, the “Proxy Statement”). Prior to filing the Proxy Statement, the Company shall provide each Investor with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon, and the Company shall reasonably consider such comments in finalizing the Proxy Statement. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to respond to any comments made by the Commission with respect to the Proxy Statement. The Investors shall furnish the Company with all information concerning the Investors as the Company may reasonably request in connection with the preparation of the Proxy Statement. Subject to the Board’s right to make any disclosure to the Company’s stockholders as the Board determines in good faith should be disclosed pursuant to applicable Law, the Proxy Statement shall include the determination of the Board that the Charter Amendment Approval and the Share Issuance Approval are advisable.

(b) The Company shall call and hold a meeting of its stockholders as promptly as reasonably practicable following the Second Closing (or earlier at the Company’s election) for the purpose of obtaining the Charter Amendment Approval and the Share Issuance Approval.

(c) The Company shall file the Charter Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware promptly after the Charter Amendment Approval.

7.12 [Reserved].

7.13 Foreign Ownership Provisions.

(a) Except as required as a result of changes in applicable Law administered by a Regulatory Body, where the failure to so act could reasonably be expected to (i) have a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) result in criminal liability for an officer, director or employee of the Company or their banning for any period from employment in any licensed nuclear facility, or (iii) result in the violation of a directive, order or decree to the Company from a Governmental Authority, from the date of this Agreement until (x) the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10 or (y) should the First Closing occur, the date on which the Investors cease to hold Common Stock (or Preferred Stock or Warrants convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock) equal to less than five percent (5%) of the outstanding Common Stock (based on the Base Price then used to reserve shares under Section 7.8), the Company shall not (A) take any action to revoke the Foreign Ownership Restrictions Determination, or (B) amend or adopt any foreign ownership provisions in its Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws (including in Article Eleventh of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation), in each case without the prior written consent of any Investor adversely affected thereby (each a “Company Action”).

(b) If the Company reasonably anticipates such a change in applicable Law that could require a Company Action, or determines that such a change in applicable Law has occurred, the Company will promptly provide each Investor with written notice thereof, describing in reasonable detail the relevant change or anticipated change in Law, the reason such change would require the Company to take a Company Action, and the Company Action anticipated. At the request of an Investor who might be affected by such Company Action made within ten (10) Business Days after the delivery of such notice, the Company will meet with such Investor, promptly and in any event within the next ten (10) Business Days, to discuss the matter with the goal of agreeing in good faith on a Company Action reasonably intended to address the actual or anticipated change in Law while minimizing the effect on such Investor’s rights under the Transaction Documents, including with respect to the Securities then held by such Investor. The Company shall not take any Company Action during such additional ten (10) Business Day period to allow for such consultations. After such period, the Company may, without limitation of the Investor’s rights under Section 7.13(c), take the Company Action agreed upon in discussions with such Investor, or failing any such agreement, such Company Action as the Company may reasonably determine is required to address such change of applicable Law while still giving effect to the fullest extent possible to the original intent of the Investor and the Company in entering into the Transaction Documents.

(c) If, notwithstanding compliance with Section 7.13(b), the Company takes a Company Action which would adversely impact any rights of the Investor under any of Transaction Documents or with respect to its Securities, the Company and the Investor shall negotiate in good faith to amend this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents so as to effect the original intent of the Company and the Investor as closely as possible. If the Company and the Investor fail to reach agreement on such amendments within thirty (30) days after such Company Action (or such longer period as such Parties may agree), then the Company shall take all actions necessary to facilitate the Investor’s prompt sale of its interest in the Company, including, as appropriate, without regard to, or subject to amended, volume limitations on block or brokered sales (and the other Investor will reasonably cooperate with respect thereto).

7.14 Tax Matters.

(a) Prior to the First Closing, upon the reasonable request of the Company or as otherwise required by applicable Law, each Investor shall deliver to the Company a properly completed and executed IRS Form W-9 (or successor form), evidencing a complete exemption from United States withholding tax (including back-up withholding tax). To the extent required by law, the Company is hereby authorized to withhold taxes from any distributions to an Investor and any amounts so withheld shall be treated as otherwise paid to the applicable Investor. In no event shall any distribution to an Investor be reduced by the withholdings applicable to the other Investor.

(b) Prior to the First Closing, Toshiba shall assign its rights to purchase Preferred Stock and Warrants under this Agreement to an Affiliate that is a U.S. Person.

(c) The Parties agree to reasonably and mutually agree upon the allocation of the purchase price at each Closing to the Series B Preferred Stock and Warrants (as applicable) as promptly as reasonably

practicable following such Closing.

7.15 Disclosure Updates. The Company may deliver to the Investors amendments to the Disclosure Letter setting forth in reasonable detail such information with respect to developments since the date hereof and prior to such Closing as are required to make the Closing Representations made at a Closing true and correct as of such Closing (the Signing Disclosures and the matters disclosed in such amendments to the Disclosure Letter or in SEC Reports filed after the date hereof are collectively as of the applicable Closing, the “Updated Disclosures”).

7.16 Investor Directors. Not later than 14 days after the date of this Agreement, the Investors shall notify the Company of the two Persons whom the Investors intend to elect as directors to the Board. Thereafter, to the extent any such Person is not reasonably acceptable to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board, the Investors shall promptly notify the Company of a replacement.

7.17 ACM. The Company and B&W shall endeavor in good faith to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 4.2(g).

8. [Reserved].

9. Restrictions on Transfer.

9.1 Transfer of Preferred Stock and Warrants. Each Investor hereby agrees that it will not transfer any Preferred Stock or any Warrants to any Person, other than to (i) its Wholly-Owned Affiliate, or Westinghouse Electric Company, LLC if controlled by Toshiba, in each case that is a U.S. Person (or a special purpose entity jointly formed and controlled by the Investors) that agrees to be bound by the terms of, and become a party to, this Agreement and the Investor Rights Agreement, (ii) the other Investor or its Wholly-Owned Affiliate, or Westinghouse Electric Company, LLC if controlled by Toshiba, in each case that is a U.S. Person, or (iii) the Company and its Subsidiaries, but in the case of either clause (i) or (ii) above, only to the extent such transfer, if it would require filings with or approvals from any Regulatory Body in order not to adversely affect the Permits or regulatory status of the Company or its Subsidiaries, has received such approvals. Any such transfer shall not occur until the Investor provides the Company at least 20 Business Days prior notice of the planned transfer and obtains any such approvals. The Company and the Investors shall cooperate in good faith to obtain any such approvals. Any transfer of Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock or Warrants pursuant to this Section shall be subject to any Negation Plan to which the applicable Investor is then a party. Any transfer of Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock or Warrants other than pursuant to this section shall be null and void, ab initio.

9.2 Orderly Sale of Common Stock.

(b) The term “Orderly Sale Arrangement” shall mean sales pursuant to any of the following methods acting reasonably and in good faith, that does not result in the Holder having record ownership, possession or voting power over Ordinary Common Stock (such as, for illustrative purposes only, directing the Company (or

its transfer agent) to deliver the shares of Ordinary Common Stock to a brokerage account for the benefit of the purchaser without such shares being issued in the name of the Holder):

(i) the sale of Common Stock in an underwritten offering pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement;

(ii) the sale of Common Stock by a Holder or its Affiliates in compliance with Rule 144(f) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, as if such sales were effected pursuant to such rule; provided that under this clause (ii), on a daily basis on any Trading Day, the sales of Common Stock by any Holder or its Affiliates shall not exceed 10% of an average daily trading volume of the Ordinary Common Stock for the four-week period immediately preceding the week during which such Trading Day occurs, as reported on Bloomberg Financial L.P. (or any successor thereof) using the HP function (or any equivalent thereof), or (b) if greater, 10% of the daily trading volume of the Ordinary Common Stock for that particular Trading Day; provided, that any additional sales made based on this clause 9.2(b)(ii) must be made at a price above the volume weighted average price for the immediately preceding Trading Day;

(iv) any other method of sale mutually agreed by the Company and such Holder, acting reasonably and in good faith;

Notwithstanding anything herein or in any of the other Transaction Documents to the contrary, no Investor shall have any obligation to take any actions or make any efforts (commercially reasonable or otherwise) related to selling any shares of Common Stock or entering into a Sales Plan (as defined in the Certificates of Designations) during the pendency of the period that an Investor agrees not to sell any shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 4.7 of the Investors Rights Agreement.

9.3 No Transfer to Competitors; Block Transfers. Each Investor hereby agrees that, with respect to the Common Stock referred to in Section 9.2(a), it will not directly or indirectly:

(a) in a transaction or a series of transactions, knowingly transfer any Common Stock to any Person that is a Competitor or any controlled Affiliate of a Competitor, other than (absent willful misconduct by the Investors) through brokers’ transactions (except for such transactions relying upon the exemptions in clauses (i) or (ii) of Rule 144(g) (3) promulgated under the Securities Act); or

(b) individually or acting together with any other Holders, at any time transfer shares of Common Stock to any Person (except as permitted under Section 9.1) that has filed a Schedule 13D or a Schedule 13G with respect to the Company’s Common Stock that has not been terminated, or to the knowledge of such Investor, would be required to file a Schedule 13D or Schedule 13G as a result of the purchase of Common Stock from the transferring Investor, in each case other than through brokers’ transactions. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, an Investor shall be permitted to sell Common Stock to a Person that at such time has filed on Schedule 13G with the Commission with respect to Ordinary Common Stock, provided, based upon such filed Schedule 13G (i) such Person beneficially owns less than 10% of the Company’s outstanding Ordinary Common Stock, and (ii) as a result of the purchase of Common Stock from the transferring Investor, such Person will beneficially own in the aggregate less than 10% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock.

Neither Investor nor any other Holder shall enter into any swap, hedge, forward contract or other arrangement or transaction or series of transactions that hedges or transfers, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Preferred Stock or Warrants, or of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exercise thereof. Neither Investor, nor any of their respective Affiliates, shall directly or indirectly sell any Ordinary Common Stock that such Investor does not at the time of sale own. The restrictions in this Section 9.4 shall terminate as to each Investor when such Investor no longer owns any Common Stock referred to in Section 9.2(a), Preferred Stock or Warrants.

(b) All covenants, agreements and obligations of each Party contained in this Agreement shall survive each Closing indefinitely in accordance with their respective terms.

11.2 Company Indemnified Parties.

(a) Following the First Closing, the Company hereby agrees to indemnify, pay and hold each Investor, and each of its officers, directors and employees (collectively, the “Company Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any and all liabilities, costs, expenses, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (but including only the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel) actually incurred by a Company Indemnified Party, in any manner relating to or arising out of any of the following (collectively, “Company Indemnified Liabilities”):

(i) the failure of any of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2 of this Agreement to be true and correct as of the date of this Agreement;

(ii) the failure of any of the Closing Representations that constitute Designated Representations made at a Closing that is consummated to be true and correct as of the date of such Closing, after giving effect to the Signing Disclosures (and for the avoidance of doubt, without giving effect to any Updated Disclosures); or

(iii) the failure of any of the Closing Representations that do not constitute Designated Representations made at a Closing that is consummated to be true and correct as of the date of such Closing, after giving effect to the Signing Disclosures and the Updated Disclosures as of such Closing.

(b) Each Company Indemnified Party shall give the Company prompt written notice of any third-party claim (a “Third-Party Claim”) that might give rise to Company Indemnified Liabilities setting forth a description of those elements of such Third-Party Claim of which such Indemnified Party has knowledge; provided, that any delay or failure to give such notice shall not affect the obligations of the Company unless (and then solely to the extent) the Company is prejudiced by such delay or failure. The Company shall have the right at any time during which such Third-Party Claim is pending to select counsel to defend and control the defense thereof and settle any claims for which it is responsible for indemnification hereunder (provided, that the Company will not settle any such Third-Party Claim without (i) the appropriate Company Indemnified Party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed or (ii) obtaining an unconditional release of the appropriate Company Indemnified Party from all claims arising out of or in any way relating to the circumstances involving such Third-Party Claim) so long as in any such event the Company shall have stated in a writing delivered to the Company Indemnified Party that, as between the Company and the Company Indemnified Party, the Company is responsible to the Company Indemnified Party with respect to such Third-Party Claim to the extent and subject to the limitations set forth herein; provided, that with respect to any Third-Party Claim as to which the Company Indemnified Party is controlling the defense, the Company will not be liable to any Company Indemnified Party for any settlement of any Third-Party Claim pursuant to this Section 11.2 that is effected without its prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any Law or public policy, the Company shall contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Company Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the Company Indemnified Parties or any of them. The obligations of the Company set forth in this Section 11.2 shall survive for the survival periods set forth in Section 11.1 and, with respect to any Third-Party Claim for Company Indemnified Liabilities made and for which proper notice has been provided hereunder prior to the date set forth in Section 11.1, until the final resolution thereof. The indemnity provided in this Section 11.2 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Company Indemnified Parties for any inaccuracy or breach of the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement.

11.3 Investor Indemnified Parties. Following the First Closing, each Investor (an “Indemnifying Investor”) hereby agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify, pay and hold the Company and each of its officers, directors and employees (collectively, the “Investor Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any and all liabilities, costs, expenses, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (but including only the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel) actually incurred by an Investor Indemnified Party, in any manner relating to or arising out of the failure of any of the representations and warranties of the Indemnifying Investor set forth in Section 3 of this Agreement to be true and correct as of the date of this Agreement or any Closing (the “Investor Indemnified Liabilities”). Each Investor Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Investor prompt written notice of any Third-Party Claim that might give rise to Investor Indemnified Liabilities setting forth a description of those elements of such Third-Party Claim of which such Investor Indemnified Party has knowledge; provided, that any delay or failure to give such notice shall not affect the obligations of the Indemnifying Investor unless (and then solely to the extent) the Indemnifying Investor is prejudiced by such delay or failure. The Indemnifying Investor shall have the right at any time during which such Third-Party Claim is pending to select counsel to defend and control the defense thereof and settle any claims for which it is responsible for indemnification hereunder (provided, that the Indemnifying Investor will not settle any such Third-Party Claim without (i) the appropriate Investor Indemnified Party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, or (ii) obtaining an unconditional release of the appropriate Investor Indemnified Party from all claims arising out of or in any way relating to the circumstances involving such Third-Party Claim) so long as in any such event the Indemnifying Investor shall have stated in a writing delivered to the Investor Indemnified Party that, as between the Indemnifying Investor and the Investor Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Investor is responsible to the Investor Indemnified Party with respect to such Third-Party Claim to the extent and subject to the limitations set forth herein; provided, that with respect to any Third-Party Claim as to which the Investor Indemnified Party is controlling the defense, the Indemnifying Investor will not be liable to any Investor Indemnified Party for any settlement of any claim pursuant to this Section 11.3 that is effected without its prior written consent, not to unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any Law or public policy, the Indemnifying Investor shall contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Investor Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the Investor Indemnified Parties or any of them. The obligations of each Investor set forth in this Section 11.3 shall survive for the survival periods set forth in Section 11.1 and, with respect to any Third-Party Claim for Investor Indemnified Liabilities made and for which proper notice has been provided hereunder prior to the date set forth in Section 11.1, until the final resolution thereof. The indemnity provided in this Section 11.3 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Investor Indemnified Parties for any inaccuracy or breach of the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement.

11.4 Waiver. Except for the recourse set forth in this Section 11, the Investors and the Company hereby waive any and all remedies which may be available to them, at law or equity, for any breach or inaccuracy or alleged breach or inaccuracy of the representations or warranties of any other Party hereto; provided, however, that nothing herein shall limit in any way the remedies of either Investor or the Company in respect of fraud or willful misconduct in connection with the Transactions.

12. Publicity. On the date hereof, the Company and the Investors shall issue a joint press release substantially in the form of Exhibit K hereto. No other written public release or written announcement concerning the purchase of the Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock, Series B-2 11.5% Preferred Stock or Warrants contemplated hereby shall be issued by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except as such release or announcement may be required by Law or the rules or regulations of any securities exchange, in which case the Party required to make the release or announcement shall, to the extent reasonably practicable, allow the other Parties reasonable time to comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance. The provisions of this Section shall not restrict the ability of a Party to summarize or describe the Transactions in any prospectus or similar offering document so long as the other Parties are provided a reasonable opportunity to review such disclosure in advance.

Prior to submitting any dispute or controversy arising from or in connection with this Agreement, including the breach, termination or invalidity thereof (a “Dispute”), to arbitration pursuant to Section 13.2(b), upon written request of any Party, each Party shall appoint a designated representative whose task it will be to meet promptly for the purpose of endeavoring to resolve such Dispute. The designated representatives shall meet, in person or by telephone or video conference as deemed appropriate by the Parties, as often as the Parties reasonably deem necessary to discuss the Dispute in an effort to resolve the Dispute without the necessity of any further proceeding. The Parties agree to negotiate, in good faith, in an attempt to resolve the Dispute for a period of not greater than thirty (30) days after notice of the Dispute is received by the Parties.

(b) Arbitration; Rules; Location. Any Dispute that is not resolved pursuant to Section 13.2(a) shall be referred to and finally determined under the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce then in effect (the “ICC Rules”). The place of arbitration shall be San Francisco, California, or such other location as the Parties may agree in writing.

(c) Arbitrators. There shall be three (3) arbitrators, nominated in accordance with the ICC Rules. Each arbitrator on the arbitral tribunal shall be disinterested in the Dispute and shall have no connection to any Party thereto.

(d) Award. The arbitral award shall be in writing, state the reasons for the award, and be the sole and exclusive binding remedy with respect to the Dispute between and among the Parties. Judgment on the award rendered may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The Parties hereby waive any right to refer any question of law and right of appeal on the law and/or merits to any court, except as provided by the Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards of 1958. For purposes of such convention, the award shall be deemed an award of the United States, the relationship between the Parties shall be deemed commercial in nature, and any Dispute arbitrated pursuant to this Section 13.2 shall be deemed commercial. The arbitrators shall have the authority to grant any equitable or legal remedies that would be available in any judicial proceeding intended to resolve a Dispute.

(e) Language of Proceedings. The language of the arbitral proceedings shall be English.

(f) Confidentiality of Proceedings. The Parties agree that any arbitration hereunder shall be kept confidential, and that the existence of the Dispute, the proceeding and all of its elements (including any pleadings, briefs or other documents submitted or exchanged, any testimony or other oral submissions, and any awards) shall be (i) prior to the First Closing, deemed Confidential Information for purposes of the confidentiality agreements referenced in Section 13.7, and (ii) following the First Closing, subject to the provisions of Section 7.4 of the Investor Rights Agreement, and in either case, without limiting the foregoing, shall not be disclosed beyond the tribunal, the International Court of Arbitration, the parties to the Dispute, their counsel, and any Person necessary to the conduct of the proceeding, except as and to the extent required to enforce any arbitral award, or as otherwise contemplated by such confidentiality agreements.

(g) Expenses. Each party hereto to a Dispute shall bear its own legal fees and costs in connection therewith.

(h) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Party shall be entitled to seek preliminary injunctive relief from any court of competent jurisdiction to preserve the status quo, pending the final decision or award of the arbitrators.

(i) Each of the Parties hereby irrevocably consents to jurisdiction of any court in the United States of America (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding pursuant to Section 13.2(h), or enforcing any award under Section 13.2(d), and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Process in any such action or proceeding may be served on any Party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. Without limiting the foregoing, each party agrees that service of process on such party as provided in Section 13.8 shall be deemed effective service of process on such Party.

(j) To the extent of concurrent Disputes (as such term is used in each of the Transaction Documents) under multiple Transaction Documents, the Parties agree to consolidate any and all such Disputes into a single proceeding pursuant to the procedures set forth in this Section 13.2.

13.3 Enforcement of Agreement. The Parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court, subject to the provisions of Section 13.2, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity, including monetary damages. Additionally, each Party hereto irrevocably waives any defenses based on adequacy of any other remedy, whether at Law or in equity, that might be asserted as a bar to the remedy of specific performance of any of the terms or provisions hereof or injunctive relief in any action brought therefor.

13.4 Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors, assigns, heirs, executors, and administrators of the Parties hereto. The rights of each Party under this Agreement shall not be assignable to any Person without the consent of each other Party; provided, however, that the Investors shall be permitted, without the consent of the Company, to assign all or a portion of their respective rights and obligations to purchase Preferred Stock or Warrants at any Closing to one or more controlled Affiliates, but only if such controlled Affiliate would, on such purchase, constitute a permitted transferee under Section 9.1 hereof (including obtaining required approvals therefore), and such Affiliate shall thereafter constitute an “Investor” for all purposes hereunder as if it were an Investor as of the date hereof, and Schedule A hereto shall be modified to reflect such assignment of rights and obligations accordingly; and provided further, that any assignment pursuant to the preceding proviso shall not relieve the assigning Investor of any obligation under this Agreement.

13.5 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer on any Person other than the Parties hereto any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, and no Person that is not a Party to this Agreement (including any partner, member, stockholder, director, officer, employee or other beneficial owner of any Party hereto, in its own capacity as such or in bringing a derivative action on behalf of a Party hereto) shall have any standing as third party beneficiary with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

13.6 No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Owners, Etc. No director, officer, employee, incorporator, stockholder, managing member, member, general partner, limited partner, principal or other agent of any of the Investors or the Company shall have any liability for any obligations of the Investors under this Agreement or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the respective obligations of the Investors or the Company hereunder. Each Party hereto hereby waives and releases all such liability. This waiver and release is a material inducement to each Party’s entry into this Agreement.

13.7 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (including the schedule and exhibits attached hereto and thereto, which are incorporated herein by reference), together with, prior to the First Closing, the Confidentiality Agreement between the Company and Toshiba, dated October 8, 2009 (in the case of Toshiba and the Company) and the Confidentiality Agreement between the Company and The Babcock & Wilcox Company, dated October 12, 2009 (in the case of B&W and the Company) constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to their subject matter. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, together with the confidentiality agreements referenced in the foregoing sentence (prior to the First Closing and subject to Section 4.1(b) of the Strategic Relationship Agreement) supersede all previous, contemporaneous and inconsistent agreements, negotiations, representations and promises between or among the Parties, written or oral, regarding the subject matter hereof. There are no oral or written collateral representations, agreements or understandings except as provided herein and in the other Transaction Documents.

13.9 Delays or Omissions. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power, or remedy accruing to a Party upon any breach or default by another Party under this Agreement shall impair any such right, power, or remedy of such Party, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and signatures may be delivered by facsimile or in electronic format (i.e., “PDF”), each of which may be executed by less than all Parties, each of which shall be enforceable against the Parties actually executing such counterparts, and all of which together shall constitute one instrument.

13.14 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable or void, portions of such provision, or such provision in its entirety, to the extent necessary, shall be severed from this Agreement and the balance of this Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.

13.15 Titles and Subtitles; Interpretation. The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement.

In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, holders of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive on par with each share of Parity Stock ranking equally with Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock in the distribution of assets upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation for each share of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock, out of the assets of the Corporation or proceeds thereof available for distribution to stockholders of the Corporation, and after satisfaction of all liabilities and obligations to creditors of the Corporation, before any distribution of such assets or proceeds is made to or set aside for the holders of Junior Stock, an amount equal to the greater of (1) the Liquidation Preference per share of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock plus an amount per share equal to the accrued but unpaid Dividends not previously added to the Liquidation Preference from and including the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date to, but excluding, the date fixed for such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation and (2) the

per share amount of all cash, securities and other property (such securities or other property having a value equal to its fair market value as reasonably and in good faith determined by the Board of Directors) to be distributed in respect of the Common Stock such holder would have been entitled to receive had it converted such Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock (without regard to the Conversion Cap or Share Issuance Limitation) immediately prior to the date fixed for such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation. To the extent that such amount is paid in full to all holders of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock and all holders of Parity Stock ranking equally with Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock in the distribution of assets upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the holders of other capital stock of the Corporation shall be entitled to receive all remaining assets of the Corporation (or proceeds thereof) according to their respective rights and preferences.

(b) Partial Payment. If, in connection with any distribution described in Section 6(a) above, the assets of the Corporation or proceeds thereof are not sufficient to pay the Liquidation Preferences in full to all holders of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock and all holders of Parity Stock ranking equally with Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock in the distribution of assets upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, then the amounts paid to the holders of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock and to the holders of all such other Parity Stock shall be paid pro rata in accordance with the respective aggregate Liquidation Preferences of the holders of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock and the holders of all such other Parity Stock.

(c) Merger, Consolidation and Sale of Assets Not Liquidation. For purposes of this Section 6, the merger or consolidation of the Corporation with any other corporation or other Person, including a merger or consolidation in which the holders of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock receive cash, securities or other property for their shares, or the sale, lease or exchange (for cash, securities or other property) of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, shall not constitute a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, but shall instead be subject to the provisions of Section 10.

Section 7. Mandatory Redemption or Conversion on a Closing Deadline Failure.

(a) Permitted Holder Election on a Closing Deadline Failure. Within 20 Business Days of a Closing Deadline Failure, each Permitted Holder shall deliver a written notice to the Corporation stating, with respect to all of its outstanding shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock, whether such Permitted Holder elects to convert such shares pursuant to Section 7(b) (a “Conversion Election”) or sell such shares pursuant to Section 7(c) (a “Sale Election”). If any Permitted Holder does not make such election by such deadline, such Permitted Holder shall be deemed to have irrevocably made a Sale Election with respect to all of its outstanding shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock.

(b) Conversion Election Procedures. Within 40 Business Days of a Closing Deadline Failure, the Corporation shall, with respect to the outstanding shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock held by all Permitted Holders that made a Conversion Election, convert such shares (i) if the Charter Amendment Approval has been obtained and subject to the making of any filing or receipt of any approval from any Regulatory Body in order not to adversely affect the Permits or regulatory status of the Corporation or its Subsidiaries, into Class B Common Stock, or (ii) if the Charter Amendment Approval has not been obtained or such regulatory approvals cannot be obtained, into Series C Preferred Stock, in either case into the number of shares of the Class B Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock, as applicable, equal to the product of (A) the quotient of (1) the Liquidation Preference plus an amount per share equal to accrued but unpaid Dividends not previously added to the Liquidation Preference on such shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock from and including the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date to, but excluding, such date of conversion, and (2) the Base Price for such conversion date and (B) the Factor. Any outstanding shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock not converted pursuant to this Section 7(b) as a result of the limitations set forth in Section 7(d) shall remain outstanding until the earlier of (x) the date on which the Share Issuance Approval is obtained (on which date any then outstanding shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock held by all Permitted Holders that made a Conversion Election shall be converted pursuant to this Section 7(b) using the Base Price for such conversion date) and (y) such time the outstanding shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock are redeemed pursuant to Section 7(g).

(c) Sale Election Procedures.

(1) If a Permitted Holder makes or is deemed to make a Sale Election, such Permitted Holder shall use commercially reasonable efforts to sell and dispose of such Permitted Holder’s shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock in accordance with Section 11 and the Orderly Sale Arrangement. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limitation, such Permitted Holder shall use commercially reasonable efforts to, as promptly as is practicable, either (x) enter into an agreement with a broker dealer that represents one of the institutions listed on Schedule C to the Securities Purchase Agreement as of such date pursuant to which all of the shares of Ordinary Common Stock into which the outstanding shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock held by such Permitted Holder shall be converted and sold (the “Sale Plan”) or (y) sell pursuant to such other method as shall be mutually agreed upon between the Corporation and the Permitted Holder. The Sale Plan shall, inter alia:

(A) constitute a written binding contract between such Permitted Holder and such broker dealer pursuant to which such Permitted Holder instructs the broker dealer to sell such shares on its account;

(B) result in the sale as promptly as practicable and in brokers transactions of the shares of Ordinary Common Stock into which such Permitted Holder’s outstanding shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock shall be converted, as provided below pursuant to the Orderly Sale Arrangement;

(C) permit such Permitted Holder no influence over when or whether to effect the sale of such shares of Ordinary Common Stock underlying such Permitted Holder’s outstanding shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock (other than initiating a separate block trade undertaken in accordance with the Orderly Sale Arrangement); and

(D) except as provided in clause (C), require that such shares of Ordinary Common Stock underlying such Permitted Holder’s outstanding shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock are sold pursuant to the terms of the Sale Plan;

(2) Upon a Third Party Transfer, shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock when sold pursuant to a Sale Plan shall automatically convert into the number of shares of Ordinary Common Stock equal to the following: (x) if sold pursuant to a brokers transaction, the product of (A) the quotient of (1) the Liquidation Preference plus an amount per share equal to accrued but unpaid Dividends not previously added to the Liquidation Preference on such shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock from and including the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date to, but excluding, such date of conversion, and (2) the price per share reported for the sale of the underlying Ordinary Common Stock and (B) the Factor; or (y) if sold other than through a brokers transaction, the product of (A) the quotient of (1) the Liquidation Preference plus an amount per share equal to accrued but unpaid Dividends not previously added to the Liquidation Preference on such shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock from and including the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date to, but excluding, such date of conversion, and (2) the price per share at which the underlying Ordinary Common Stock is agreed to be sold in such transaction and (B) the Factor.

(d) Share Issuance Limitation. Notwithstanding anything in this Certificate of Designation to the contrary, any issuance of Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock shall be limited to the total number of shares that may be issued in compliance with the Share Issuance Limitation to the extent applicable.

(e) Deferred Implementation of Sale Plan. In the event that a Permitted Holder at the time of a Sale Election advises the Corporation that it in good faith believes that it is in possession of material non-public information concerning the Corporation, such Permitted Holder may defer implementation of the Sale Plan until the next period of time during which directors and executive officers of the Corporation are permitted to purchase and sell shares of Ordinary Common Stock in a trading “window” or similar period pursuant to the Corporation’s trading policies in effect at such time. Without limiting a Permitted Holder’s obligation to do so, if a Permitted Holder shall fail to enter into and initiate a Sale Plan within 180 days of a Sale Election and shall at any time thereafter fail to use commercially reasonable efforts to implement a Sale Plan (tolling such period to the extent it is prevented from doing so pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.7 of the Investor Rights Agreement) the Corporation may, if the Permitted Holder fails to resume and maintain such commercially reasonable efforts within ten (10) Business Days after notice of such failure from the Corporation, convert such Permitted Holder’s shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock pursuant to the provisions of Section 7(b) (without regard for the deadline or notice provided for therein) as of the date of such failure applying the Base Price as of the date of such conversion. With respect to a Permitted Holder’s obligation in the immediately preceding sentence, such commercially reasonable efforts shall include such Permitted Holder causing any Initial Preferred Director or the Preferred Director, as applicable, to resign within 90 days of the delivery of the notice pursuant to Section 7(a) if such Initial Preferred Director’s or the Preferred Director’s access, as applicable, to material non-public information concerning the Corporation is preventing the Permitted Holder from entering into the Sale Plan or otherwise disposing of its shares in accordance with Section 11 and the Orderly Sale Arrangement.

(f) Optional Redemption. Notwithstanding any Sale Plan, at any time from and after a Sale Election, the Corporation may, subject to the provisions of the DGCL, and from time to time, upon 10 Business Days prior written notice, redeem all or any portion of the outstanding shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock for, at the Corporation’s sole discretion, cash or SWU Consideration in an amount equal to the product of (i) the Liquidation Preference of such shares plus an amount per share equal to accrued but unpaid Dividends not previously added to the Liquidation Preference on such shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock from and including the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date to, but excluding, the date of redemption and (ii) the Factor.

(g) Automatic Redemption. If a Closing Deadline Failure occurs and shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock remain outstanding on the later of (i) December 31, 2012 or (ii) the one-year anniversary of such Closing Deadline Failure,

the Corporation shall, subject to the provisions of the DGCL, redeem all outstanding shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock for, at the Corporation’s sole discretion, cash or SWU Consideration in an amount equal to (i) the product of (A) the Liquidation Preference of such shares plus an amount per share equal to accrued but unpaid Dividends not previously added to the Liquidation Preference on such shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock from and including the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date to, but excluding, the date of redemption and (B) the Factor.

(h) Determination of Factor.

(1) The Factor shall be (i) if at the time of the Closing Deadline Failure the Securities Purchase Agreement was not terminable pursuant to Section 10.2(c) or (d) or Section 10.3(c) or (d) thereof, 1.0 (one); (ii) if at the time of the Closing Deadline Failure the Securities Purchase Agreement was terminable pursuant to Sections 10.2(c) or 10.3(c) thereof, 1.1 (one and one-tenth); or (iii) if at the time of the Closing Deadline Failure the Securities Purchase Agreement was terminable as to such Permitted Holder pursuant to Sections 10.2(d) or 10.3(d) thereof, 0.9 (nine-tenths).

(2) Together with the notice delivered by each Permitted Holder pursuant to Section 7(a), each Permitted Holder shall state the Factor to be applied with respect to the Conversion Election or the Sale Election. If any Permitted Holder does not make such determination in its notice, the Factor deemed noticed and applicable to such Permitted Holder shall be 1.0. Within 20 Business Days of receipt by the Corporation of a notice pursuant to Section 7(a), the Corporation may deliver a written notice to a Permitted Holder disputing such Permitted Holder’s determination of the Factor or, if the Permitted Holder did not include a Factor in its notice, the deemed Factor. If the Corporation does not timely provide such notice, such Permitted Holder’s determination of the Factor or the deemed Factor, as the case may be, shall be final and binding on such Permitted Holder and the Corporation. If the Corporation timely objects to a Permitted Holder’s determination of the Factor, the Factor shall be initially 1.0 for purposes of such conversion or redemption and all of such Permitted Holder’s outstanding shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock shall be converted pursuant to Section 7(b), sold pursuant to Section 7(c) or redeemed pursuant to Sections 7(f) or (g) based upon such Factor and either the Corporation or such Permitted Holder may seek a Final Determination pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 13.2 of the Securities Purchase Agreement, and following any such Final Determination, such final Factor shall be applied hereunder.

Section 8. Other Conversion.

(a) Conversion by the Corporation.

(1) Conversion Upon Third Party Financing. Effective upon the DOE Financial Closing that follows or is contemporaneous with a Third Party Financing or immediately prior thereto, the Corporation may convert all of the outstanding shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock (i) if the Charter Amendment Approval has been obtained, into Class B Common Stock, or (ii) if the Charter Amendment Approval has not been obtained, into Series C Preferred Stock, in either case into the number of shares of the Class B Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock, as applicable, equal to the quotient of (A) 120% of the sum of (i) the Liquidation Preference plus (ii) an amount per share equal to accrued but unpaid Dividends not previously added to the Liquidation Preference on such shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock from and including the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date to, but excluding, the date of conversion and (B) the Base Price for the date that the Corporation provides notice pursuant to Section 8(a)(2).

(2) Conversion Timing. If the Corporation elects to convert pursuant to this Section 8(a), the Corporation shall provide written notice to the Permitted Holders of record at their respective last addresses appearing on the books of the Corporation. Such notice shall state the conversion date of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock, which date shall be no less than 5 days and no more than 60 days from the date of such notice; provided, however, that the effectiveness of the conversion (and the Corporation’s right and obligation to effect the conversion) shall be conditioned upon the DOE Financial Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, after delivery of such notice, the Corporation desires to specify a different conversion date, the Corporation shall not be required to notify the Permitted Holders of such change until after the conversion is effected unless such changed conversion date is more than 15 days prior to or after the original conversion date. The conversion date shall be the date specified in such written notice or such different date as specified by the Corporation in accordance with this Section 8(a)(2).

(b) Conversion by the Permitted Holders.

(1) Post-Third Closing Conversion. At any time and from time to time after the Third Closing (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), any Permitted Holder’s shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred

Stock shall be converted, in whole or in part, upon the request of such Permitted Holder, subject to the Conversion Cap, into the number of shares of Class B Common Stock equal to the quotient of (A) the Liquidation Preference plus an amount per share equal to accrued but unpaid Dividends not previously added to the Liquidation Preference on such shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock from and including the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date to, but excluding, such date of conversion and (B) the Base Price for the conversion date specified in the written notice provided by such Permitted Holder pursuant to Section 8(b)(2). Shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock not converted as a result of the foregoing limitations shall remain outstanding except as provided herein.

(2) Conversion Timing. If a Permitted Holder elects to convert pursuant to this Section 8(b), such Permitted Holder shall provide written notice to the Corporation. Such notice shall state the conversion date of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock, which date shall be no less than 5 days and no more than 60 days from the date of such notice. The conversion date shall be the date specified in such written notice.

(c) Automatic Conversion and Redemption. On December 31, 2016, all outstanding shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock shall be automatically converted, without any action on the part of the holder and subject to the Conversion Cap, into the number of shares of Class B Common Stock equal to the quotient of (i) the Liquidation Preference plus an amount per share equal to accrued but unpaid Dividends not previously added to the Liquidation Preference on such shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock from and including the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date to, but excluding, such date of conversion and (ii) the Base Price for December 31, 2016. Shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock not converted as a result of the foregoing limitation shall remain outstanding except as provided herein. If shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock remain outstanding on February 28, 2017 due to the Conversion Cap, the Corporation shall, subject to the provisions of the DGCL, redeem all outstanding shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock for cash in an amount equal to the Liquidation Preference of such shares plus an amount per share equal to accrued but unpaid Dividends not previously added to the Liquidation Preference on such shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock from and including the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date to, but excluding, the date of redemption. If the Corporation fails to pay such redemption amount by March 15, 2017, the Conversion Cap shall no longer apply and all outstanding shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock shall be automatically converted, without any action on the part of the holder, into the number of shares of Class B Common Stock equal to the quotient of (A) the Liquidation Preference plus an amount per share equal to accrued but unpaid Dividends not previously added to the Liquidation Preference on such shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock from and including the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date to, but excluding, such date of conversion and (B) the Base Price for March 15, 2017. In the event of any automatic conversion or redemption pursuant to this Section 8(c), the conversion or redemption shall be deemed to have been effected at the time that the event triggering such automatic conversion or redemption occurred.

(d) Conversion Mechanics. A Permitted Holder shall cease to be a record holder of each share of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock on the date such share is converted. As promptly as practicable on or after the conversion date (and in any event no later than three Trading Days thereafter), the Corporation or its agent, including its transfer agent, shall issue the number of shares of Class B Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock (including fractional shares) issuable pursuant to Section 8(a), (b) or (c). Any such certificate or certificates shall be delivered by the Corporation or its agent, including its transfer agent, to the appropriate holder on a book-entry basis or by mailing certificates evidencing the shares to the holders at their respective addresses as set forth in the records of the Corporation, subject in each case to the provisions of Section 9 of the Securities Purchase Agreement.

(e) Reservation of Class B Common Stock. Subject to receiving the Charter Amendment Approval and for as long as any shares of Series B Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued Ordinary Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, or shares of Ordinary Common Stock or Class B Common Stock held in treasury by the Corporation, for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock, the full number of shares of Ordinary Common Stock or Class B Common Stock then issuable upon the conversion of all the shares of Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding. For purposes hereof, reservations hereunder shall be at the Base Price equal to the closing price of the Corporation’s Ordinary Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the second to last Trading Day prior to the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement; provided, however, if the Base Price for the date four Trading Days prior to the First Closing, the Second Closing or the Third Closing (each as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) or on June 30 of any year is less than such amount, then that lower amount shall be used as the Base Price for purposes of this calculation. All shares of Class B Common Stock delivered upon conversion of Series B Preferred Stock shall have been duly authorized and validly issued and shall be fully paid and nonassessable, and shall be free from preemptive rights and free of any lien or adverse claim.

(f) Partial Conversion. In case of any conversion of any of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, the shares to be converted shall be selected pro rata among the shares of Series B Preferred Stock held by each Permitted Holder and among each such Permitted Holder’s shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock and Series B-2

11.5% Preferred Stock. If fewer than all of the shares represented by any certificate are converted, a new certificate shall be issued representing the unconverted shares without charge to the holder thereof.

(g) Taxes. The Corporation shall pay any and all taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of shares of Ordinary Common Stock, Class B Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock on conversion of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock. The Corporation shall not, however, be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any Transfer involved in the issue and delivery of shares of Ordinary Common Stock, Class B Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock in a name other than that in which Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock so converted was registered, and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the Person requesting such issue has paid to the Corporation the amount of any such tax, or has established to the satisfaction of the Corporation that such tax has been paid.

(a) Conversion by the Corporation.

(1) Conversion Upon Third Party Financing. Effective upon the DOE Financial Closing that follows or is contemporaneous with a Third Party Financing or immediately prior thereto, the Corporation may convert all of the outstanding shares of Series B-2 11.5% Preferred Stock (i) if the Charter Amendment Approval has been obtained, into Class B Common Stock, or (ii) if the Charter Amendment Approval has not been obtained, into Series C Preferred Stock, in either case into the number of shares of the Class B Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock, as applicable, equal to the quotient of (A) 120% of the sum of (i) the Liquidation Preference plus (ii) an amount per share equal to accrued but unpaid Dividends not previously added to the Liquidation Preference on such shares of Series B-2 11.5% Preferred Stock from and including the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date to, but excluding, the date of conversion and (B) the Base Price for the date that the Corporation provides notice pursuant to Section 8(a)(2).

(2) Conversion Timing. If the Corporation elects to convert pursuant to this Section 8(a), the Corporation shall provide written notice to the Permitted Holders of record at their respective last addresses appearing on the books of the Corporation. Such notice shall state the conversion date of Series B-2 11.5% Preferred Stock, which date shall be no less than 5 days and no more than 60 days from the date of such notice; provided, however, that the effectiveness of the conversion (and the Corporation’s right and obligation to effect the conversion) shall be conditioned upon the DOE Financial Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, after delivery of such notice, the Corporation desires to specify a different conversion date, the Corporation shall not be required to notify the Permitted Holders of such change until after the conversion is effected unless such changed conversion date is more than 15 days prior to or after the original conversion date. The conversion date shall be the date specified in such written notice or such different date as specified by the Corporation in accordance with this Section 8(a)(2).

(b) Conversion by the Permitted Holders.

(1) Post-Third Closing Conversion. At any time and from time to time after the Third Closing (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), any Permitted Holder’s shares of Series B-2 11.5% Preferred Stock shall be converted, in whole or in part, upon the request of such Permitted Holder, subject to the Conversion Cap, into the number of shares of Class B Common Stock equal to the quotient of (A) the Liquidation Preference plus an amount per share equal to accrued but unpaid Dividends not previously added to the Liquidation Preference on such shares of Series B-2 11.5% Preferred Stock from and including the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date to, but excluding, such date of conversion and (B) the Base Price for the conversion date specified in the written notice provided by such Permitted Holder pursuant to Section 8(b)(2). Shares of Series B-2 11.5% Preferred Stock not converted as a result of the foregoing limitations shall remain outstanding except as provided herein.

(2) Conversion Timing. If a Permitted Holder elects to convert pursuant to this Section 8(b), such Permitted Holder shall provide written notice to the Corporation. Such notice shall state the conversion date of Series B-2 11.5% Preferred Stock, which date shall be no less than 5 days and no more than 60 days from the date of such notice. The conversion date shall be the date specified in such written notice.

(c) Automatic Conversion and Redemption. On December 31, 2016, all outstanding shares of Series B-2 11.5% Preferred Stock shall be automatically converted, without any action on the part of the holder and subject to the Conversion Cap, into the number of shares of Class B Common Stock equal to the quotient of (i) the Liquidation Preference plus an amount per share equal to accrued but unpaid Dividends not previously added to the Liquidation Preference on such shares of Series B-2 11.5% Preferred Stock from and including the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date to, but excluding, such date of conversion and (ii) the Base Price for December 31, 2016. Shares of Series B-2 11.5% Preferred Stock not converted as a result of the foregoing limitation shall remain outstanding except as provided herein. If shares of Series B-2 11.5% Preferred Stock remain outstanding on February 28, 2017 due to the Conversion Cap, the Corporation shall, subject to the provisions of the DGCL, redeem all outstanding shares of Series B-2 11.5% Preferred Stock for cash in an amount equal to the Liquidation Preference of such shares plus an amount per share equal to accrued but unpaid Dividends not previously added to the Liquidation Preference on such shares of Series B-2 11.5% Preferred Stock from and including the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date to, but excluding, the date of redemption. If the Corporation fails to pay such redemption amount by March 15, 2017, the Conversion Cap shall no longer apply and all outstanding shares of Series B-2 11.5% Preferred Stock shall be automatically converted, without any action on the part of the holder, into the number of shares of Class B Common Stock equal to the quotient of (A) the Liquidation Preference plus an amount per share equal

to accrued but unpaid Dividends not previously added to the Liquidation Preference on such shares of Series B-2 11.5% Preferred Stock from and including the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date to, but excluding, such date of conversion and (B) the Base Price for March 15, 2017. In the event of any automatic conversion or redemption pursuant to this Section 8(c), the conversion or redemption shall be deemed to have been effected at the time that the event triggering such automatic conversion or redemption occurred.

(d) Conversion Mechanics. A Permitted Holder shall cease to be a record holder of each share of Series B-2 11.5% Preferred Stock on the date such share is converted. As promptly as practicable on or after the conversion date (and in any event no later than three Trading Days thereafter), the Corporation or its agent, including its transfer agent, shall issue the number of shares of Class B Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock (including fractional shares) issuable pursuant to Section 8(a), (b) or (c). Any such certificate or certificates shall be delivered by the Corporation or its agent, including its transfer agent, to the appropriate holder on a book-entry basis or by mailing certificates evidencing the shares to the holders at their respective addresses as set forth in the records of the Corporation, subject in each case to the provisions of Section 9 of the Securities Purchase Agreement.

(e) Reservation of Class B Common Stock. Subject to receiving the Charter Amendment Approval and for as long as any shares of Series B Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued Ordinary Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, or shares of Ordinary Common Stock or Class B Common Stock held in treasury by the Corporation, for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock, the full number of shares of Ordinary Common Stock or Class B Common Stock then issuable upon the conversion of all the shares of Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding. For purposes hereof, reservations hereunder shall be at the Base Price equal to the closing price of the Corporation’s Ordinary Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the second to last Trading Day prior to the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement; provided, however, if the Base Price for the date four Trading Days prior to the First Closing, the Second Closing or the Third Closing (each as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) or on June 30 of any year is less than such amount, then that lower amount shall be used as the Base Price for purposes of this calculation. All shares of Class B Common Stock delivered upon conversion of Series B Preferred Stock shall have been duly authorized and validly issued and shall be fully paid and nonassessable, and shall be free from preemptive rights and free of any lien or adverse claim.

(f) Partial Conversion. In case of any conversion of any of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, the shares to be converted shall be selected pro rata among the shares of Series B Preferred Stock held by each Permitted Holder and among each such Permitted Holder’s shares of Series B-2 11.5% Preferred Stock and Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock. If fewer than all of the shares represented by any certificate are converted, a new certificate shall be issued representing the unconverted shares without charge to the holder thereof.

(g) Taxes. The Corporation shall pay any and all taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of shares of Ordinary Common Stock, Class B Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock on conversion of Series B-2 11.5% Preferred Stock. The Corporation shall not, however, be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any Transfer involved in the issue and delivery of shares of Ordinary Common Stock, Class B Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock in a name other than that in which Series B-2 11.5% Preferred Stock so converted was registered, and no

such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the Person requesting such issue has paid to the Corporation the amount of any such tax, or has established to the satisfaction of the Corporation that such tax has been paid.

(1) Effective at the time no Series B Preferred Stock shall be outstanding, the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors shall be increased by two Persons and the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding Class B Common Stock and Series C Preferred Stock, voting together as a separate class to the exclusion of the holders of any other Common Stock and any other series of Preferred Stock, shall be entitled to elect two Qualified Directors to the Board of Directors (each such director, an “Initial Investor Director”) until the earliest to occur of (i) a Closing Deadline Failure as a result of a Permitted Holder Material Breach at a time when the Securities Purchase Agreement is terminable pursuant to Sections 10.2(d) and 10.3(d) thereof, (ii) a Change of Control or (iii) such time as the Permitted Holders’ Aggregate Outstanding Value is equal to or less than (x) prior to or on December 31, 2016, 75% of the Original Issue Value or, (y) after December 31, 2016, 50% of the Original Issue Value, whereupon at any such time (A) the right of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding Series B Preferred Stock to elect the Initial Investor Directors shall cease, (B) the term of office of the Initial Investor Directors shall immediately and automatically terminate, (C) the Initial Investor Directors will no longer be qualified to serve and (D) the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors shall be immediately and automatically reduced by two Persons.

(2) Effective as of the first Original Issuance Date and at such time as when the Permitted Holders do not have the right to elect the Initial Investor Directors pursuant to Section 5(b)(1)(iii) and any Permitted Holder’s Permitted Holder Outstanding Value is greater than (x) prior to or on December 31, 2016, 75% of such Permitted Holder’s Permitted Holder Original Issue Value or (y) after December 31, 2016, 50% of such Permitted Holder’s Permitted Holder Original

Issue Value, the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors shall be increased by one Person and the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding Class B Common Stock and Series C Preferred Stock, voting together as a separate class to the exclusion of the holders of Ordinary Common Stock and any other series of Preferred Stock, shall be entitled to elect one Qualified Director to the Board of Directors (such director, the “Investor Director”) until the earliest to occur of (i) an event described in Section 5(b)(1)(i) or (ii) or (ii) such time as each Permitted Holder’s Permitted Holder Outstanding Value is equal to or less than (x) prior to or on December 31, 2016, 75% of such Permitted Holder’s Permitted Holder Original Issue Value or (y) after December 31, 2016, 50% of such Permitted Holder’s Permitted Holder Original Issue Value, whereupon at any such time (A) the right of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding Class B Common Stock and Series C Preferred Stock to elect the Investor Director shall cease, (B) the term of office of the Investor Director shall immediately and automatically terminate, (C) the Investor Director will no longer be qualified to serve and (D) the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors shall be immediately and automatically reduced by one Person.

(3) For the avoidance of doubt, except for the increase or decrease in the number of directors provided for herein, nothing in this Section 5(b) shall prohibit the Board of Directors from fixing the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors pursuant to the Bylaws.

(4) Term. Subject to the provisions of this Section 5(b), each Initial Investor Director or the Investor Director, as applicable, shall serve until the next annual meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation and until his or her successor is elected and qualified in accordance with this Section 5(b) and the Bylaws, unless any such Initial Investor Director or the Investor Director, as applicable, is earlier removed in accordance with the Bylaws, resigns or is otherwise unable to serve; provided, however, that only the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding Class B Common Stock and the Series C Preferred Stock may remove any such Initial Investor Director or the Investor Director, as applicable, without cause at any time, and the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of the capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote on the matter may remove any such Initial Investor Director or the Investor Director, as applicable, with cause at any time. Subject to the provisions of this Section 5(b), in the event any Initial Investor Director or the Investor Director, as applicable, is removed, resigns or is unable to serve as a member of the Board of Directors, the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding Class B Common Stock and Series C Preferred Stock, voting together as a separate class to the exclusion of the holders of any other Common Stock and any other series of Preferred Stock, shall have the right to fill such vacancy. Each Initial Investor Director or the Investor Director, as applicable, may only be elected to the Board of Directors by the holders of the Class B Common Stock and Series C Preferred Stock in accordance with this Section 5(b), and each such Initial Investor Director’s or the Investor Director’s seat, as applicable, shall otherwise remain vacant.

(d) Notwithstanding Section 5(a), the holders of Series C Preferred Stock and Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to vote together with the holders of Common Stock (and any other class or series of capital stock entitled to vote on the matter with the Common Stock) as a single class with respect to any transactions involving a merger of the Corporation or sale of substantially all of the Corporation’s assets, which must be submitted to the Corporation’s stockholders pursuant to the DGCL; provided, however, that each holder of Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to (A) one vote for each outstanding share of Class B Common Stock held of record by such holder as of the applicable record date, but only to the extent that the aggregate voting power of all of the outstanding Series C Preferred Stock and Class B Common Stock does not exceed 20% of the total voting power of all outstanding shares of all classes and series of capital stock entitled to vote thereon or (B) if pursuant to clause (A) the aggregate voting power of all of the outstanding Series C Preferred Stock and Class B Common Stock would exceed 20% of the total voting power of all outstanding shares of all classes and series of capital stock entitled to vote on the matter, such fraction of one vote for (i) each one-one thousandth (1/1000) of a share of Series C Preferred Stock and (ii) each share of Class B Common Stock held of record by such holder as of the applicable record date such that the aggregate voting power of all of the outstanding Series C Preferred Stock and Class B Common Stock equaled 20% of the total voting power of all outstanding shares of all classes and series of capital stock entitled to vote thereon.

(e) Notwithstanding Section 5(a), the vote or consent of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock, voting together as a separate class to the exclusion of the holders of the Common Stock and any other series of Preferred Stock then outstanding and entitled to vote thereon, given in person or by proxy, either in writing without a meeting or by vote at any meeting called for the purpose, shall be necessary for effecting or validating any amendment, alteration or repeal of the Certificate of Incorporation or this Certificate of Designation (by merger, consolidation or otherwise) so as to adversely affect the powers, preferences and relative participating, optional and other rights of Series C Preferred Stock.

Section 6. Dividends and Distributions. Subject to applicable law and the rights, if any, of the holders of any Senior Stock, the holders of Series C Preferred Stock then outstanding shall first receive, or simultaneously receive, a dividend on each outstanding share of Series C Preferred Stock in an amount equal to the product of (a) the aggregate per

share amount of all dividends declared and paid on the Ordinary Common Stock out of the assets of the Corporation that are by law available therefor at such times and in such amounts as the Board of Directors in its discretion shall determine and (b) 1000. Except as otherwise required by the DGCL and Section 7(a), in any circumstance where the Corporation may declare dividends or otherwise make distributions (including, without limitation, any distribution on liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation) on the Common Stock, the Corporation shall declare the same per share dividends or make the same per share distributions, as the case may be, on the Series C Preferred Stock; provided, however, that if any such dividends or distributions are declared with respect to the Common Stock in the form of additional shares of Common Stock (or rights to acquire Common Stock), such dividends or distributions shall be made with respect to the Series C Preferred Stock in the form of an equivalent number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock (or rights to acquire Series C Preferred Stock) and if any such dividends or distributions are declared with respect to Series C Preferred Stock in the form of additional shares of Series C Preferred Stock (or rights to acquire Series C Preferred Stock), such dividends or distributions shall be made with respect to the Common Stock in the form of an equivalent number of shares of Common Stock (or rights to acquire Ordinary Common Stock).

Section 7. Liquidation Rights.

(a) Voluntary or Involuntary Liquidation. Subject to the rights of the holders of any Senior Stock outstanding at any time, in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, holders of the Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive for each outstanding share of Series C Preferred Stock, out of the assets of the Corporation or proceeds thereof available for distribution to stockholders of the Corporation, and after satisfaction of all liabilities and obligations to creditors of the Corporation, before any distribution of such assets or proceeds is made to or set aside for the holders of Junior Stock, an amount equal to the per share amount of all cash and other property to be distributed in respect of the Common Stock into which the Series C Preferred Stock is then convertible.

(b) Partial Payment. If, in connection with any distribution described in Section 7(a) above, the assets of the Corporation or proceeds thereof are not sufficient to pay the Liquidation Preferences, plus an amount equal to any dividends declared but unpaid thereon, in full to all holders of Series C Preferred Stock and all holders of Parity Stock, then the amounts paid to the holders of Series C Preferred Stock and to the holders of all such other capital stock ranking equally on liquidation shall be paid pro rata in accordance with the respective aggregate Liquidation Preferences, plus any dividends declared but unpaid thereon, of the holders of Series C Preferred Stock and the holders of all such other Parity Stock.

(c) Merger, Consolidation and Sale of Assets Not Liquidation. For purposes of this Section 7, the merger or consolidation of the Corporation with any other corporation or other Person, including a merger or consolidation in which the holders of Series C Preferred Stock receive cash, securities or other property for their shares, or the sale, lease or exchange (for cash, securities or other property) of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, shall not constitute a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, but shall instead be subject to the provisions of Section 9.

Section 8. Subdivision or Combination. If the Corporation in any manner subdivides or combines the outstanding shares of any of the Ordinary Common Stock, Class B Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock, then the outstanding shares of the Ordinary Common Stock, Class B Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock, as applicable, will be subdivided or combined in the same manner.

Section 9. Equal Status. Except as expressly provided in this Certificate of Designation, shares of Ordinary Common Stock and Series C Preferred Stock shall have the same rights, powers, preferences and restrictions and rank equally, share ratably and be identical in all respect as to all matters. In any merger, consolidation, reorganization or other business combination, the consideration received per share by the holders of the Ordinary Common Stock and per 1/1000 of a share of Series C Preferred Stock in such merger, consolidation, reorganization or other business combination shall be identical; provided, however, that if such consideration consists, in whole or in part, of shares of capital stock of, or other equity interests in, the Corporation or any other corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity, then the designation and the powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other rights and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of such shares of capital stock or other equity interests may differ to the extent that the designation and the powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other rights and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the Ordinary Common Stock and the Series C Preferred Stock differ as provided herein or in the Certificate of Incorporation (including, without limitation, with respect to the voting rights and conversion provisions hereof) if and to the extent necessary due to regulatory requirements or restrictions applicable to the entity surviving such merger, consolidation, reorganization or other business combination that are similar in nature to those applicable to the Corporation; and provided, further, that if the holders of the Ordinary Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock are granted the right to elect to receive one of two or more alternative forms of consideration, the foregoing provision shall be deemed satisfied if holders of the other class or series are granted identical election rights, subject to the preceding proviso.

Section 10. Automatic Conversion.

(a) Subject to Section 11, a share of the Series C Preferred Stock shall be automatically converted, without any action on the part of the Corporation (other than the subsequent exchange of Series C Preferred Stock certificates for Ordinary Common Stock certificates or, in the case of uncertificated shares of Series C Preferred Stock, upon receipt of proper transfer instructions from the registered holder of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock or by his, her or its attorney lawfully constituted in writing, and upon payment of all necessary transfer taxes and compliance with appropriate procedures for transferring shares in uncertificated form), or any holder of the Series C Preferred Stock or any other Person, into 1000 fully paid and nonassessable shares of Ordinary Common Stock upon a Third Party Transfer of such share.

(b) In the event of any automatic conversion pursuant to the terms of Section 10(a), the conversion shall be deemed to have been effected upon such Third-Party Transfer (the “Series C Preferred Stock Automatic Conversion Time”). At the Series C Preferred Stock Automatic Conversion Time, the certificate or certificates that represented the shares of Series C Preferred Stock that were so converted immediately prior to such conversion (the “Converted Series C Preferred Stock”) shall, automatically and without further action, represent 1000 fully paid and non-assessable shares of Ordinary Common Stock per share of Series C Preferred Stock. Permitted Holders of the Converted Series C Preferred Stock shall deliver their certificates, duly endorsed in blank or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation, duly executed by such Permitted Holder or such Permitted Holder’s authorized attorney to the principal office of the Corporation (or such other office or agency (including the transfer agent, if applicable) of the Corporation as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered Permitted Holder at the address of such Permitted Holder appearing on the books of the Corporation), together with a written notice stating the name or names (with addresses) and denominations in which the certificate or certificates representing such shares of Ordinary Common Stock are to be issued and including instructions for delivery thereof. Upon such delivery, the Corporation or its agent shall promptly issue and deliver at such stated address to such holder of shares of Ordinary Common Stock a certificate or certificates representing the number of shares of Ordinary Common Stock to which such holder is entitled by reason of such conversion, and shall cause such shares of Ordinary Common Stock to be registered in the name of such holder. The Person entitled to receive the shares of Ordinary Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such shares of Ordinary Common Stock at and as of the Series C Preferred Stock Automatic Conversion Time, and the rights of such Person as a holder of shares of the Series C Preferred Stock that have been converted shall cease and terminate at and as of the Series C Preferred Stock Automatic Conversion Time, in each case without regard to any failure by such Permitted Holder to deliver the certificates or the notice required by this Section.

Section 11. Restrictions.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Certificate of Designation to the contrary and unless the Corporation, in its sole discretion, otherwise agrees in writing, Permitted Holders may not Transfer shares of Series C Preferred Stock if such Transfer would require approvals from or filings with any Regulatory Bodies in order not to adversely affect the Permits or regulatory status of the Corporation or its Subsidiaries, unless such approvals and/or filings have been made and received; provided, however, this Section 11(a) shall not apply to any transfer where the transferee received Ordinary Common Stock pursuant to the terms hereof.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Certificate of Designation to the contrary and unless the Corporation, in its sole discretion, otherwise agrees in writing, the conversion of Series C Preferred Stock for Ordinary Common Stock shall also be subject to the requirements of Section 9.2 of the Securities Purchase Agreement.

(c) Any purported conversion or Transfer of Series C Preferred Stock in violation of these restrictions shall be null and void ab initio.

Section 12. Record Holders. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Corporation may deem and treat the record holder of any share of the Series C Preferred Stock as the true and lawful owner thereof for all purposes.

Section 13. Legends. All certificates representing shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall bear a legend or other restriction substantially to the following effect (it being agreed that if such shares are not certificated, other appropriate restrictions shall be implemented to give effect to the following):

“THIS SECURITY WAS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR AS MAY BE HELD BY A PERSON DEEMED AN “AFFILIATE” (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) OF THE ISSUER OF THIS SECURITY, AND THIS SECURITY MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE

The purchase price for each share of Class B Common Stock under this Warrant shall be U.S. $7.50 (the “Common Exercise Price”), and the purchase price for each share of Series C Preferred Stock under this Warrant shall be U.S. $7,500.00 (the “Preferred Exercise Price”) (such Common Exercise Price or Preferred Exercise Price, as applicable, the “Exercise Price”); the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares for which the Warrant is exercisable shall be subject to adjustment as provided herein. The term “Holder” shall refer to the Holder identified above or any subsequent permitted transferee of this Warrant. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated May 25, 2010, among the Company, Toshiba Corporation , a corporation organized under the laws of Japan (“Toshiba”), and Babcock & Wilcox Investment Company, a Delaware corporation (“B&W”), as amended from time to time (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”).

1. Authorization of Warrant Shares. The Company shall at all times keep reserved for issuance and delivery upon exercise of this Warrant such number of its authorized and unissued shares of Stock of the Company from time to time

issuable upon exercise of this Warrant as will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of this Warrant in accordance with the terms set forth herein. The Company represents and warrants that all shares of Stock delivered upon the exercise of this Warrant shall have been duly authorized and validly issued, shall be fully paid and nonassessable, and shall be free from preemptive rights and free of any lien or adverse claim.

2. Exercise of Warrant.

(a) Except as provided in Section 9 of the Securities Purchase Agreement and Sections 2(c) and 2(e) herein, exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and before or on the Termination Date by (i) surrendering this Warrant, with the Notice of Exercise Form annexed hereto completed and duly executed, to the offices of the Company (or such other office or agency (including the transfer agent, if applicable) of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered Holder at the address of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company) and (ii) delivering payment of the Exercise Price for the shares of Stock thereby purchased by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with written wire instructions to be provided by the Company promptly on the Holder’s request. Subject to the restrictions of Section 9 of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Holder exercising its purchase rights in accordance with the preceding sentence shall be entitled to receive a certificate (or designate to whom such certificate shall be issued) for the number of Warrant Shares so purchased; certificates for shares so purchased hereunder shall be issued and delivered to the Holder (or issued at its direction) within three Trading Days after the date on which this Warrant shall have been exercised as aforesaid. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been issued, and the Holder shall be deemed to no longer hold this Warrant with respect to such shares, as of the date this Warrant has been exercised by payment to the Company of the Exercise Price (including by exercising the Net Exercise Right pursuant to Section 2(b)) and all taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 5 prior to the issuance of such shares, have been paid, notwithstanding that the stockholder books or records of the Company may be closed or certificates representing such shares may not be actually delivered on such date.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the restrictions of Section 9 of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Holder may, it its sole discretion, satisfy its obligation to pay the Exercise Price through a “cashless exercise” (the “Net Exercise Right”), in which case the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares determined as follows:

X = Y[(A-B)/A]

where:
X	=	the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder;
Y	=	the total number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being exercised;
A	=	the Warrant Base Price as of the date of exercise; and
B	=	the Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such exercise.

(c) If, at the time this Warrant is exercised, the Charter Amendment Approval or the Regulatory Approvals have not been obtained, the Holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to exercise this Warrant only for shares of Series C Preferred Stock. If, however, the Charter Amendment Approval and Regulatory Approvals have been obtained, the Holder of this Warrant shall be entitled, subject to the Share Issuance Limitation (if any), to exercise this Warrant only for shares of Class B Common Stock.

(d) Subject to Section 2(c) and Section 2(e) herein and Section 9 of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Holder may exercise all or any portion of this Warrant during the Exercise Period. In the event that this Warrant is not exercised in full, the number of Warrant Shares shall be reduced by the number of such Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercised and/or surrendered, and the Company, if requested by the Holder and at its expense, shall within 10 Business Days issue and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant of like tenor in the name of the Holder or as the Holder may direct, to a Permitted Holder transferee (upon payment by Holder of any applicable transfer taxes pursuant to Section 5), reflecting such adjusted Warrant Shares.

“Warrant Base Price” shall mean for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Ordinary Common Stock is then listed or quoted on the New York Stock Exchange, The NASDAQ Stock Market or the American Stock Exchange (each an “Approved Market”), the daily volume-weighted average price per share of the Ordinary Common Stock for the Trading Day immediately preceding such date, as reported for the regular trading session (including any extensions thereof) on the primary Approved Market on which the Ordinary Common Stock is then listed or quoted (without regard to pre-open or after-hours trading outside of such regular trading session on such Trading Day), as reported by Bloomberg Financial L.P. (or any successor thereof) using the HP function (or any equivalent thereof); (b) if the Ordinary Common Stock has not been listed or quoted on an Approved Market and if prices for the Ordinary Common Stock are then quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, the daily volume-weighted average price per share of the Ordinary Common Stock for the Trading Day immediately preceding such date, as quoted for the regular trading session on the OTC Bulletin Board; (c) if the Ordinary Common Stock has not been listed or quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board and if prices for the Ordinary Common Stock are then reported in the “Pink Sheets” published by the National Quotation Bureau Incorporated (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Ordinary Common Stock so reported; or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Ordinary Common Stock as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors acting reasonably and in good faith; provided, however, for any calculation pertaining to Series C Preferred Stock, the result of the calculations in any of (a) through (d) shall be multiplied by 1,000 to arrive at the Warrant Base Price.

“Warrant Shares” shall have the meaning ascribed to it in the Preamble.

“Wholly-Owned Affiliate” shall mean, as to any Person, any Affiliate that, directly or indirectly, is wholly-owned and controlled (other than by contract) by a Person, or any other Affiliate to which the Company, in its sole discretion, consents.

4. Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares of Class B Common Stock shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Warrant Base Price on the date of exercise. Fractional shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall be issued, if necessary.

5. Taxes. The Company shall pay any and all taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of shares of Class B Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock, as applicable, on exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of shares of Class B Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock, as applicable, in a name other than that in which this Warrant was issued, and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the Person requesting such issue has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax or has established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.

6. Closing of Books. The Company shall not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents a timely exercise of this Warrant permitted hereby.

7. Division and Combination.

(a) This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof to the Company, together with a written notice specifying the denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued and signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. The Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice.

(b) The Company shall prepare, issue and deliver at its own expense (other than transfer taxes as provided in Section 5) the new Warrant or Warrants under this Section 7.

8. No Rights as Stockholder until Exercise. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company. Upon the surrender of this Warrant and the payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (or satisfaction thereof through the Net Exercise Right), the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be and be deemed to be issued to such Holder or its designated transferee, as required pursuant to Section 9 of the Securities Purchase Agreement, as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the later of the date of such surrender or payment/satisfaction, and this Warrant shall no longer be issuable with respect to such Warrant Shares.

9. Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it, and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company shall make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor, and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.

10. Business Days. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.

11. Adjustments of Exercise Price and Number / Kind of Warrant Shares. The Exercise Price and the number and kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of any of the following:

(a) In case the Company shall (i) pay a dividend in shares of Ordinary Common Stock or make a distribution in shares of Ordinary Common Stock to holders of its outstanding Ordinary Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Ordinary Common Stock into a greater number of shares, (iii) combine its outstanding shares of Ordinary Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Ordinary Common Stock, or (iv) issue any shares of its capital stock in a reclassification of the Ordinary Common Stock, then the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior thereto shall be proportionately adjusted so that the Holder shall be entitled to receive the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other shares of capital stock of the Company which it would have owned or have been entitled to receive had such Warrant been exercised in advance thereof; provided, however, that if any such dividend is paid in the form of Ordinary Common Stock or rights to acquire Ordinary Common Stock, at a time this Warrant is exercisable for Series C Preferred Stock, the Holder shall receive at the time of exercise shares of Series C Preferred Stock or rights to acquire shares of Series C Preferred Stock, as the case may be, and at a time this Warrant is exercisable for Class B Common Stock, the Holder shall receive at the time of exercise shares of Class B Common Stock or rights to acquire shares of Class B Common Stock, as the case may be. Upon each such adjustment of the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the Company which are purchasable hereunder, the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to purchase the number of Warrant Shares or other shares of capital stock resulting from such adjustment at an Exercise Price per Warrant Share or other security obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Warrant Shares purchasable pursuant hereto immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing by the number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the Company purchasable pursuant hereto as a result of such adjustment. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 11 shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such event retroactive to the record date, if any, for such event.

(b) If the Company shall distribute to all holders of Ordinary Common Stock (and not to the Holder of this Warrant) securities, evidences of the indebtedness of the Company or any other Person, assets (including cash and cash dividends), rights, options, warrants or other property (excluding dividends of its Ordinary Common Stock and other distributions referred to in Section 11(a)), in each such case, (i) the Exercise Price shall be adjusted by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction, the denominator of which shall be the Warrant Base Price determined as of such record date, and the numerator of which shall be such Warrant Base Price on the date following such record date, and (ii) the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be increased to the number obtained by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which is the new Exercise Price determined in accordance with subsection (i) above. Such adjustments shall be made whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the record date mentioned above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Exercise Price shall never be adjusted below the par value of the shares of Class B Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock, as applicable, for which this Warrant is then exercisable.

(c) If the Company shall effect a Pro Rata Repurchase of Ordinary Common Stock prior to the Exercise

Period, then (i) the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to the price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the effective date of such Pro Rata Repurchase by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the product of the number of shares of Ordinary Common Stock outstanding immediately before such Pro Rata Repurchase and the Warrant Base Price determined as of the date of the first public announcement by the Company or any of its Affiliates of the intent to effect such Pro Rata Repurchase, minus the aggregate purchase price of the Pro Rata Repurchase, and the denominator of which shall be the product of the number of shares of Ordinary Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such Pro Rata Repurchase minus the number of shares of Ordinary Common Stock so repurchased and the Warrant Base Price determined as of the date of the first public announcement by the Company or any of its Affiliates of the intent to effect such Pro Rata Repurchase, and (ii) the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted to the number obtained by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which is the new Exercise Price determined in accordance with subsection (i) above. Such adjustments shall be made whenever any such Pro Rata Repurchase is made and shall become effective immediately after the effective date mentioned above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Exercise Price shall never be adjusted below the par value of the shares of Stock for which this Warrant is then exercisable.

12. Reorganization Events. In the event of:

(a) any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another Person or of another Person with or into the Company; or

(b) any sale, transfer, lease or conveyance to another Person of all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Company;

in each case in which holders of Ordinary Common Stock would be entitled to receive cash, securities or other property for their shares of Ordinary Common Stock (any such event specified in this Section 12, a “Reorganization Event”), this Warrant shall, following the effective time of such Reorganization Event, without the consent of the Holder and at the sole discretion of the Company, (i) be converted into the cash, securities and other property receivable in such Reorganization Event by and in the same relative amounts as a holder of Ordinary Common Stock (other than securities issued or other property distributed by such holder or its Affiliates) holding, immediately prior to the Reorganization Event, a number of shares of Ordinary Common Stock equal to the number of Warrant Shares which would be issuable for Class B Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock, as applicable, under this Warrant (disregarding the Share Issuance Limitation, if any) immediately prior to such Reorganization Event; provided, however, that if such consideration consists, in whole or in part, of shares of capital stock of, or other equity interests in, the Company or any other Person, then the designation and the powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other rights and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of such shares of capital stock or other equity interests may differ only to the extent that the then existing designation and powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other rights and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the Ordinary Common Stock, Class B Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock differ as provided in the Certificate of Incorporation (including, without limitation, with respect to the voting rights and conversion provisions thereof) if and to the extent necessary due to regulatory requirements or restrictions applicable to the entity surviving the Reorganization Event that are similar in nature to those applicable to the Company; and provided, further, that, if the holders of the Ordinary Common Stock, Class B Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock are granted the right to elect to receive one of two or more alternative forms of consideration, the foregoing provision shall be deemed satisfied if holders of the other class are granted identical election rights, subject to the previous proviso, or (ii) be redeemed by the Company for a cash price equal to 100% of the fair value of the consideration as determined by the Board of Directors, acting reasonably and in good faith, received under clause (i) (such cash, securities or other property, the “Exchange Property”); provided, however, that the Exchange Property shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Exercise Price that the Holder would have paid had the Holder exercised this Warrant on the date of such Reorganization Event; and provided, further, that, if the Exercise Price would exceed the value of the Exchange Property, then the Warrant shall be cancelled for no consideration in connection with the Reorganization Event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this Section 12 shall not apply in the case of, and a Reorganization Event shall not be deemed to be, a merger, consolidation, reorganization or statutory share exchange (A) among the Company and its direct and indirect Subsidiaries or (B) between the Company and any Person for the primary purpose of changing the domicile of the Company.

13. Notice to Holder.

(a) Whenever the number of Warrant Shares or number or kind of securities or other property purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant or the Exercise Price is adjusted, as provided herein, the Company shall give notice thereof to the Holder, which notice shall state the number of Warrant Shares (and other securities or property) purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares (and other securities or property) after such

adjustment, setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and setting forth the computation by which such adjustment was made.

(b) If at any time during the Exercise Period (i) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Ordinary Common Stock and Class B Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or other distribution, or any right to subscribe for or purchase any evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of capital stock or any other securities or property or to receive any other right; (ii) there shall be any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company or any consolidation or merger of the Company with, or any sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the property, assets or business of the Company to, another Person; or (iii) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company, then the Company shall give to the Holder at least five Business Days’ prior written notice of the date on which a record date shall be selected for such dividend, distribution or right or for determining rights to vote in respect of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, liquidation or winding up, and in the case of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, at least 10 Business Days’ prior written notice of the date when the same shall take place. Failure to provide such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of any such action.

14. Transfer Restrictions. Except for transfers to Permitted Holders, consistent with Section 9 of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company shall refuse to register any attempted transfer of this Warrant and any such purported transfer shall be null and void.

15. Termination of Warrant. If the Securities Purchase Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant to Sections 10.2(d) or 10.3(d) thereof, or is subject to termination thereto at the time of termination as a result of a breach of the Securities Purchase Agreement by the Holder, this Warrant shall become immediately, automatically and irrevocably unexercisable and shall expire without any action required of the Company.

16. Miscellaneous.

(a) Governing Law. This Warrant shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of New York without regard to choice of laws or conflict of laws provisions thereof that would require the application of the Laws of any other jurisdiction.

(b) Dispute Resolution.

(i) Executive Meetings. Prior to submitting any dispute or controversy arising from or in connection with this Agreement, including the breach, termination or invalidity thereof (a “Dispute”), to arbitration pursuant to Section 16(b)(ii), upon written request of any Party, each Party shall appoint a designated representative whose task it will be to meet promptly for the purpose of endeavoring to resolve such Dispute. The designated representatives shall meet, in person or by telephone or video conference as deemed appropriate by the Parties, as often as the Parties reasonably deem necessary to discuss the Dispute in an effort to resolve the Dispute without the necessity of any further proceeding. The Parties agree to negotiate, in good faith, in an attempt to resolve the Dispute for a period of not greater than thirty (30) days after notice of the Dispute is received by the Parties.

(ii) Arbitration; Rules; Location. Any Dispute that is not resolved pursuant to Section 16(b)(i) shall be referred to and finally determined under the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce then in effect (the “ICC Rules”). The place of arbitration shall be San Francisco, California, or such other location as the Parties may agree in writing.

(iii) Arbitrators. There shall be three (3) arbitrators, nominated in accordance with the ICC Rules. Each arbitrator on the arbitral tribunal shall be disinterested in the Dispute and shall have no connection to any Party thereto.

(iv) Award. The arbitral award shall be in writing, state the reasons for the award, and be the sole and exclusive binding remedy with respect to the Dispute between and among the Parties. Judgment on the award rendered may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The Parties hereby waive any right to refer any question of law and right of appeal on the law and/or merits to any court, except as provided by the Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards of 1958. For purposes of such convention, the award shall be deemed an award of the United States, the relationship between the Parties shall be deemed commercial in nature, and any Dispute arbitrated pursuant to this Section 16(b) shall be deemed commercial. The arbitrators shall have the authority to grant any equitable or legal remedies that would be available in any judicial proceeding intended to resolve a Dispute.

(v) Language of Proceedings. The language of the arbitral proceedings shall be English.

(vi) Confidentiality of Proceedings. The Parties agree that any arbitration hereunder shall be kept confidential, and that the existence of the Dispute, the proceeding and all of its elements (including any pleadings, briefs or other documents submitted or exchanged, any testimony or other oral submissions, and any awards) shall be deemed Confidential Information for purposes of the confidentiality agreements referenced in Section 13.7 of the Securities Purchase Agreement, and shall not be disclosed beyond the tribunal, the International Court of Arbitration, the parties to the dispute, their counsel, and any Person necessary to the conduct of the proceeding, except as and to the extent required to enforce any arbitral award, or as otherwise contemplated by such confidentiality agreements.

(vii) Expenses. Each party hereto to a Dispute shall bear its own legal fees and costs in connection therewith.

(viii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Party shall be entitled to seek preliminary injunctive relief from any court of competent jurisdiction to preserve the status quo, pending the final decision or award of the arbitrators. Each of the Parties hereby irrevocably consents to jurisdiction of any court in the United States of America (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding pursuant to this Section 16(b)(viii), or enforcing any award under Section 16(b)(iv), and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Process in any such action or proceeding may be served on any Party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. Without limiting the foregoing, each party agrees that service of process on such party as provided in Section 16(d) shall be deemed effective service of process on such Party.

(ix) To the extent of concurrent Disputes (as such term is used in each of the Transaction Documents) under multiple Transaction Documents, the Parties agree to consolidate any and all such Disputes into a single proceeding pursuant to the procedures set forth in this Section 16(b).

(c) Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of the Holder or the Company shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Holder’s or the Company’s rights, powers or remedies; provided, however, that all rights hereunder shall terminate on the Termination Date, or such earlier termination of this Warrant pursuant to Section 15 hereof.

(d) Notices. All notices, requests, consents and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be mailed by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or otherwise delivered by hand or by messenger, addressed:

FORM OF INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT

INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT

THIS INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of             , 2010, by and among Toshiba Corporation, a Japanese corporation (“Toshiba”), Babcock & Wilcox Investment Company, a Delaware corporation (“B&W”, and together with Toshiba, the “Investors”), and USEC Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). The Investors and the Company are referred to herein collectively as the “Parties”, and each individually as a “Party”.

RECITALS

WHEREAS, the Investors and the Company are parties to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of May 25, 2010 (the “SPA”), providing for the Company’s issuance and sale to the Investors of shares of Series B-1 12.75% Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company, par value $1.00 per share and the Series B-2 11.5% Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company, par value $1.00 per share (together, the “Preferred Stock”), and certain other transactions, in each case on the terms set forth therein (collectively, the “Transaction”); and

WHEREAS, the Parties are entering into this Agreement concurrently with the consummation of the First Closing under the SPA, in accordance therewith.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants set forth herein, the Parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

INVESTOR DIRECTORS

1.1 Information Rights. For so long as an Investor Director continues to serve as a Director, the Company shall provide such Investor Director with all information made available to other Directors, as and when so made available to such other Directors; provided, however, that the Company shall not provide to (a) any Investor Director that is or is appointed or elected by a non-U.S. Person, any Classified Information or Export Controlled Information, except as permitted by an approved Negation Plan or applicable Laws, or (b) any Investor Director, any Competitively Sensitive Information.

1.2 Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) For so long as an Investor Director continues to serve as a Director, and for a period of six (6) years thereafter:

(i) (x) The Company shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, indemnify and hold harmless all current and former Directors on terms that are no less favorable than the provisions contained in the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company as of the date hereof, and (y) such provisions shall not, except as required to comply with changes in applicable Laws, be amended, repealed or otherwise modified in any manner that would adversely affect the rights of such Directors; and

(ii) The Company shall maintain in full force and effect Directors’ and officers’ liability insurance (“D&O Insurance”) in reasonable amounts from established and reputable insurers on terms no less favorable in the aggregate than those now applicable to Directors and officers of the Company, to the extent commercially reasonably available.

(b) In all D&O Insurance policies, each Investor Director shall be covered as an insured in such a manner as to provide the Investor Director with rights and benefits no less favorable than provided to the other Directors.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to make annual premium payments for D&O Insurance to the extent that such premiums exceed three hundred percent (300%) of the annual premiums paid as of the date hereof by the Company for such insurance (such three hundred percent (300%) amount, the “Maximum Premium”). If such insurance coverage cannot be obtained at all, or can only be obtained at an annual premium in excess of the Maximum Premium, the Company shall maintain the most advantageous policies of D&O Insurance obtainable for an annual premium equal to the Maximum Premium; provided, that in all events the coverage for the Investor Directors shall be no less favorable than that accorded to any other Director of the Company.

1.3 Qualified Directors.

(a) Notwithstanding the right of the Investors to elect the Investor Directors, no Investor Director shall be, and no Investor shall have the right to elect an Investor Director who is a director, officer or employee of, works for or on, or is assigned to any Competitor Affiliate (as defined in the Strategic Relationship Agreement dated as of May 25, 2010, by and among the Parties) of an Investor (any such Person engaged in such activities or having such position or capacity shall be considered “Unqualified”).

(b) Each Investor hereby covenants that for a period of eighteen (18) months after such Investor Director no longer serves as a Director, such former Investor Director will not be permitted to serve as a director, officer or employee of, or work for, or be assigned to any Competitor Affiliate of such Investor.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree that Westinghouse Electric Company, LLC, is not a Competitor Affiliate of Toshiba.

(d) If at any time an Investor Director becomes Unqualified, the Investors hereby agree to promptly cause such Investor Director to resign from the Board and take all other actions necessary to effect such removal, including acting by written consent, to remove such Investor Director from the Board.

ARTICLE II

APPROVAL RIGHTS

2.1 Special Approval Rights. Following the Third Closing, for so long as either Investor maintains its Minimum Equity Holdings, the Company shall not (and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to) adopt a plan of complete or partial dissolution or liquidation of the Company (other than in connection with a merger, sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets or other business combination transaction) without the prior written approval of the holders of a majority of the Preferred Stock then outstanding (voting together as a single class).

2.2 Minimum Equity Holdings. An Investor will be deemed to maintain its “Minimum Equity Holdings”:

(a) (1) from the date of the First Closing until December 31, 2016, so long as, at any time and from time to time, (1) the Original Issue Value (as defined below) of all of the then-outstanding shares of the Preferred Stock acquired by such Investor in the Closings (excluding PIK Shares and shares acquired upon exercise of the Warrants), plus (2) for each share of Series C Preferred Stock then held by such Investor, excluding those shares of Series C Preferred Stock issued upon exercise of the Warrants, the Base Price upon which such Investor’s acquisition of such shares was calculated, plus (3) the aggregate Base Price for each share of the Class B Common Stock received upon conversion of the Preferred Stock then held by such Investor, plus (4) the aggregate amount of accrued and unpaid Dividends on such Investor’s outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock which have been added to the Liquidation Preference pursuant to Section 5(a) of the Series B-1 Certificate of Designation or the Series B-2 Certificate of Designation, as applicable (collectively, such Investor’s “Aggregate Outstanding Value”) exceeds seventy-five percent (75%) of the aggregate Initial Liquidation Preference of all of the shares of the Preferred Stock issued in the Closings to such Investor, excluding PIK Shares and shares of Class B Common Stock and Series C Preferred Stock acquired on the exercise of Warrants (such Investor’s “Original Issue Value”); and

(b) after December 31, 2016, so long as such Investor’s Aggregate Outstanding Value exceeds fifty percent (50%) of such Investor’s Original Issue Value.

In each case, for purposes of determining Aggregate Outstanding Value and Original Issue Value, if there has been an automatic redemption pursuant to Section 7(g) of the Series B-1 Certificate of Designation, subsequent to a Conversion Election, Section 8(c) of the Series B-1 Certificate of Designation or Section 8(c) of the Series B-2 Certificate of Designation (each, an “Automatic Redemption”), the aggregate amount of the Liquidation Preference as of the date of redemption of such Investor’s Securities (excluding PIK Shares and shares acquired upon exercise of the Warrants) so redeemed shall be added to such Investor’s Aggregate Outstanding Value and the aggregate amount of the Liquidation Preference as of the date of redemption of such Investor’s Securities so redeemed shall be added to such Investor’s Original Issue Value; provided, however, that, if at any time after any Automatic Redemption, such Investor’s Deemed Holder Percentage is less than eight percent (8%), then such adjustment to Aggregate Outstanding Value and Original Issue Value shall not be made for purposes of determining such Investor’s Investor Director appointment rights under the Transaction Documents; for the avoidance of doubt, such adjustment shall continue to be made for purposes of determining any other rights of such Investor, including any

rights of such Investor under Article II of the Strategic Relationship Agreement.

ARTICLE III

SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS

3.1 Subscription Rights.

(a) If the Company proposes to sell shares of any preferred stock (other than Preferred Stock or in exchange therefore) (“Additional Securities”), including in a private placement, a public offering, as part of an acquisition, share exchange or otherwise, the Company shall, at least thirty (30) days prior to issuing such Additional Securities, notify each Investor in writing of such proposed issuance specifying the material terms and conditions thereof, including: (i) the number and description of such Additional Securities proposed to be issued and the percentage of the Company’s outstanding equity interests that such issuance would represent; (ii) the proposed issuance date; and (iii) the form of consideration and the proposed purchase price per share (such notice, the “Subscription Right Notice”), and shall, subject to the receipt by the Company of any required Nuclear and National Security Approvals (and to the Company’s compliance with Section 3.7 in respect thereof), offer to sell such Additional Securities to the Investors in the amounts set forth in Section 3.1(c), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Subscription Right Notice and at the Purchase Price as set forth in Section 3.1(d) (the “Subscription Rights”); provided, that, if the purchase price for, or any of the other material terms and conditions of, the proposed issuance change or are not known at the time of provision of the Subscription Right Notice, the Company shall provide the Subscription Right Notice specifying that the price or other such terms and conditions are not yet available, and shall provide a supplemental notice (the “Additional Notice”), adding the missing terms, to the Investors as soon as they are known to the Company, and in no event later than ten (10) Business Days prior to such issuance.

(b) If an Investor wishes to subscribe for a number of Additional Securities less than the number to which it is entitled under this Section 3.1, such Investor may do so (but not less than 10% of the number to which it is entitled) and shall, in the notice of exercise of the offer, specify the number of Additional Securities that it wishes to purchase, which shall not be less than 10% of the shares to which it is entitled.

(c) The Company shall offer each Investor all, or any portion specified by the Investor in accordance with Section 3.1(b), of an amount of such Additional Securities such that, after giving effect to the proposed issuance (including the issuance to the Investor pursuant to the Subscription Rights and including any related issuance resulting from the exercise of preemptive or similar rights by any unrelated Person with respect to the same issuance that gave rise to the exercise of the Subscription Rights by the Investor), the Investor’s Equity Interest after such issuance would equal the Investor’s Equity Interest immediately prior to such issuance, such number of Additional Securities to constitute the “Subscription Share Amount”. If, at the time of the determination of any Subscription Share Amount under this Section 3.1(c), any other Person has subscription or other equity purchase rights similar to the Subscription Rights, such Subscription Share Amount shall be recalculated to take into account the amount of Additional Securities such Persons have committed to purchase, rounding up such Subscription Share Amount to the nearest whole Additional Security.

(d) The “Purchase Price” for the Additional Securities to be issued pursuant to the exercise of Subscription Rights shall be payable to the extent practicable, in the same form of consideration set forth in the Subscription Right Notice (unless otherwise agreed by the Company and the applicable Investor) and, except as otherwise set forth below, shall equal per Additional Security the per Security issuance price for the Additional Securities giving rise to such Subscription Right. In the case of any issuance of Additional Securities other than solely for cash, the Company and each Investor making a non-cash payment shall in good faith seek to agree upon the value of the non-cash consideration; provided, that the value of any publicly traded securities shall be deemed to be the closing price of such securities on the applicable national securities exchange as of the Trading Day immediately prior to the consummation of such issuance. If the Company and such Investor fail to agree on the value of such non-cash consideration during the period contemplated by the first sentence of Section 3.2, then the Company shall refer the items in dispute to a nationally recognized investment banking firm that is selected by the Board and acceptable to the Investor and that shall be instructed to make a final and binding determination of the fair market value of such items within ten (10) Business Days. If such a determination is required, the deadline for an Investor’s exercise of its Subscription Rights with respect to such issuance pursuant to Section 3.1(b) shall be extended until the fifth (5th) Business Day following the date of such determination. Whichever of the Company or the Investor whose last estimate communicated in writing to the other party differed in dollar value the most from that finally determined by such investment banking firm shall be responsible for and pay all of the fees and expenses of such investment banking firm. All determinations made by such investment banking firm shall be final and binding on the Company and the Investor.

3.2 Exercise Period. The Subscription Rights set forth in Section 3.1 must be exercised by acceptance in writing of

an offer referred to in Section 3.1(a) deliverable to the Company within ten (10) Business Days of receiving notice from the Company of its intention to sell Additional Securities, or, if applicable and later, within ten (10) days of any Additional Notice. The closing of any purchase of Additional Securities pursuant to the exercise by the Investor of Subscription Rights hereunder shall occur on the closing of the transaction triggering such Subscription Rights, subject to the receipt of any necessary Governmental Approvals to which the issuance of Additional Securities is subject (and the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such Governmental Approvals).

3.3 Sales to the Prospective Buyer. If an Investor fails to elect to purchase all or part of its allotment of the Additional Securities described in the Subscription Right Notice within the time period described in Section 3.2, the Company shall be free to complete the proposed issuance or sale of Securities described in the Subscription Right Notice at a price and on other terms no less favorable to the Company than those set forth in the Subscription Right Notice. If the Company does not enter into such an agreement for the sale of such Securities within thirty (30) Business Days after the expiration of the time period described in Section 3.2, or if such agreement is not consummated within ninety (90) days after the execution thereof, such Subscription Rights shall be deemed to be revived and such Additional Securities shall not be issued or sold unless first reoffered to the Investors in accordance with this Article III.

3.4 Survival of Rights. The rights of an Investor set forth in this Article III shall continue for so long as such Investor maintains its Minimum Preferred Holdings.

3.5 No Subscription Rights for Third Party Financing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Investors shall not be entitled to their respective Subscription Rights with respect to issuances of securities in a Third Party Financing.

3.6 No Additional Funding Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, the Investors shall not have any obligation to fund or provide financial support of any kind (whether fixed, contingent, conditional or otherwise) to the Company beyond their respective obligations as to the Closings as set forth in the SPA.

3.7 Nuclear and National Security Approvals. The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any Nuclear and National Security Approvals required with respect to the Investors’ exercise of their respective rights under this Agreement, and each Investor shall reasonably cooperate with the Company in such efforts.

ARTICLE IV

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

4.1 Shelf Registration Statement.

(a) The Company shall, no later than the Filing Date, file with the SEC a Shelf Registration Statement (the “Initial Shelf”) relating to the offer and sale of the Registrable Securities by the Investors from time to time to permit the sale of Registrable Securities by the Investors pursuant to the Orderly Sale Arrangement set forth in Section 9 of the SPA and, thereafter, shall use its best efforts to cause the Initial Shelf to be declared effective under the Securities Act no later than ninety (90) calendar days following the date first filed with the SEC. None of the Company’s securityholders (other than the Investors) shall have the right to include any Securities of the Company on the Initial Shelf.

(b) For so long as either Investor holds any Registrable Securities, the Company shall use its best efforts to maintain an effective Shelf Registration Statement registering all unsold Registrable Securities. Subject to Section 4.3, the Company shall use its best efforts to keep a Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective, supplemented and amended as required by the provisions of Section 4.3(i), in order to permit the Prospectus forming a part thereof to be usable by the Investors until the date that the Investors no longer hold Registrable Securities (such period, the “Resale Period”). The Company shall be deemed not to have used its best efforts to keep a Shelf Registration Statement effective during the Resale Period if the Company voluntarily takes any action that would result in the Investors’ not being able to offer and sell any of such Registrable Securities under such Shelf Registration Statement during that period, unless such action is (x) required by applicable Laws and the Company thereafter promptly complies with the requirements of Section 4.3 or (y) permitted pursuant to Section 4.3.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement shall require the Company to undertake or otherwise support an underwritten offering of Registrable Securities unless the Company determines to do so in its sole discretion.

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, any sale made pursuant to the Initial Shelf shall be subject to the Orderly

Sale Arrangement set forth in Section 9 of the SPA.

4.2 Piggyback Rights.

(a) If at any time an Investor is in possession of Registrable Securities and the Company proposes to effect an underwritten registration of any of its securities (other than in a Third Party Financing) under the Securities Act (other than any registration of Securities on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or any successor forms), for its own account, or for the account of one or more stockholders of the Company (other than pursuant to the Initial Shelf) (each, a “Proposed Registration”), the Company shall give prompt written notice to the Investors of the Company’s intention to do so. If an Investor’s Registrable Securities have not been included in the Proposed Registration, and within ten (10) Business Days of the receipt of any such notice such Investor delivers to the Company a written notice requesting to have any or all of its Registrable Securities included in such Proposed Registration (such notice to include the number of Registrable Securities that the Investor wishes to be included in the Proposed Registration), the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such shares to be registered as requested in such notice. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.2(a), if the managing underwriter advises the Company that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, the Company may limit the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be included in the Proposed Registration without requiring any limitation in the number of shares to be registered on behalf of the Company; provided, however, that the number of Registrable Securities included in the Proposed Registration pursuant to this Section 4.2(a) may not be reduced to less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the total number of shares requested by the Investors to be included in the Proposed Registration (the “Cut Back Limit”), and any such cut back will be implemented on a pro rata basis according to the number of shares requested by each Investor to be included in the Proposed Registration; provided, further, that nothing herein shall prevent the Company from canceling or withdrawing any Proposed Registration prior to the filing or effectiveness thereof. Registrable Securities held by the Investors proposed to be included on a Proposed Registration shall have priority over all securities proposed to be included on such Registration Statement other than (i) securities to be sold by the Company unless the following clause (ii) applies, or (ii) if the Proposed Registration is pursuant to contractual demand rights of another Person, securities proposed to be included by such Person, which shall, subject to the Cut Back Limit, have priority over the Registrable Securities on such Registration Statement.

(b) No Investor’s Registrable Securities shall be registered unless such Investor accepts the terms of the underwriting as approved by the Company for the offering; provided that the Investor may independently negotiate with the underwriters for the offering any representations and warranties that the Investor shall give to such underwriters in connection with the offering. In the event that an Investor is unable to agree with such underwriters on such representations and warranties or does not accept the terms of such underwriting, then the Company may proceed with the Proposed Registration without the participation of such Investor or the inclusion of any of such Investor’s Registrable Securities.

4.3 Registration Procedures. In connection with the Registration Statements, the following provisions shall apply:

(a) The Company shall furnish to each Investor, prior to the Effective Time, a copy of any Registration Statement filed with the SEC (or to be filed in the case of an automatically effective Registration Statement), and shall furnish to each Investor, prior to filing with the SEC, copies of each amendment thereto and each amendment or supplement, if any, to the Prospectus included therein, and shall in good faith consider the reasonable comments suggested by such counsel, including consideration of inclusion thereof in the Registration Statement or Prospectus. The Company shall deliver promptly to counsel to the Investors and to each underwriter, if any, participating in the offering of the Registrable Securities, copies of all correspondence between the SEC and the Company, its counsel or its auditors with respect to such Registration Statement.

(b) The Company shall promptly take such action as may be necessary so that (i) each of the Registration Statements and any amendment thereto and the Prospectus forming a part thereof and any amendment or supplement thereto (and each report or other document incorporated therein by reference in each case) complies in all material respects with the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the respective rules and regulations thereunder, as in effect at any relevant time, (ii) each of the Registration Statements and any amendment thereto does not, when it becomes effective, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and (iii) each Prospectus forming a part of any Registration Statement, and any amendment or supplement to such Prospectus, in the form delivered to purchasers of the Registrable Securities during the Resale Period, does not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(c) The Company shall promptly advise each Investor, and shall confirm such advice in writing if requested by either Investor:

(i) when any Registration Statement has been filed with the SEC and when any Registration

Statement has become effective;

(ii) when any supplement to the Prospectus, Registration Statement or post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement has been filed with the SEC and, with respect to a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto, when the same has been declared effective by the SEC;

(iii) of any SEC comments on, or request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to, any Registration Statement or the Prospectus included therein or for additional information;

(iv) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose;

(v) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the securities included in any Registration Statement for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceeding for such purpose; and

(vi) of the happening of any event or the existence of any state of facts that requires the making of any changes in any Registration Statement or the Prospectus included therein so that, as of such date, such Registration Statement and Prospectus do not contain an untrue statement of a material fact and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading (which advice shall be accompanied by an instruction to the Investors to suspend the use of the Prospectus until the requisite changes have been made).

(d) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance, and if issued to obtain the withdrawal at the earliest possible time, of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement.

(e) As promptly as reasonably practicable, the Company shall furnish to each Investor, upon their request and without charge, one (1) conformed copy of any Registration Statement and any amendment thereto, including financial statements but excluding schedules, all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference and all exhibits (unless reasonably requested in writing to the Company by such Investor).

(f) The Company shall, during the period that any Registration Statement is effective, deliver to each Investor, without charge, as many copies of each Prospectus included in the applicable Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as such Investor may reasonably request; and the Company consents (except during a Suspension Period or during the continuance of any event described in Section 4.3(c)(iii)-(vi)) to the use of the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto by each of the Investors in connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto during the period that any Registration Statement is effective.

(g) Prior to any offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) register or qualify or cooperate with the Investors and their respective counsel in connection with the registration or qualification (or exemption from such registration or qualification) of such Registrable Securities for offer and sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as any Investor may reasonably request in writing, (ii) keep such registrations or qualifications or exemption therefrom in effect and comply with such Laws so as to permit the continuance of offers and sales in such jurisdictions for so long as may be necessary to enable any Investor or underwriter, if any, to complete its distribution of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement, and (iii) take any and all other actions reasonably necessary to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of such Registrable Securities; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company be obligated to (A) qualify as a foreign corporation or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to so qualify but for this Section 4.3(g) or (B) subject itself or its Affiliates to general or unlimited service of process or to taxation in any such jurisdiction if they are not now so subject.

(h) Unless any Registrable Securities shall be in book-entry only form, if requested, the Company shall cooperate with the Investors to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be sold pursuant to any Registration Statement, which certificates, if so required by any Approved Market upon which any Registrable Securities are listed, shall be free of any restrictive legends other than those required by Article ELEVENTH of the Certificate of Incorporation, and in such permitted denominations and registered in such names as the Investors may request in connection with the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement.

(i) Upon the occurrence of any fact or event contemplated by Section 4.3(c)(vi), subject to Section 4.3(j), the Company shall use its best efforts to promptly, but in any event within ten (10) Business Days following such occurrence,

prepare and file (and have declared effective) a post-effective amendment to any Registration Statement or an amendment or supplement to the related Prospectus included therein or file any other document with the SEC so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Registrable Securities, the Prospectus will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. If the Company notifies the Investors of the occurrence of any fact or event contemplated by Section 4.3(c)(vi), the Investors shall suspend the use of the Prospectus until the requisite changes to the Prospectus have been made, and shall thereafter distribute the updated Prospectus to purchasers of Registrable Securities to ensure that the Prospectus received by such purchaser does not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(j) After the Effective Time of any Registration Statement, the Company may suspend the use of any Prospectus by written notice to the Investors for a period not to exceed an aggregate of forty-five (45) calendar days in any ninety (90) calendar day period (each such period, a “Suspension Period”) if:

(i) an event has occurred and is continuing as a result of which the Registration Statement would, in the Company’s judgment, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; and

(ii) the Company determines in good faith that the disclosure of such event at such time would have a material adverse effect on the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole;

provided, that in the event that such disclosure relates to a previously undisclosed proposed or pending material business transaction, the disclosure of which would impede the Company’s ability to consummate such transaction, the Company may extend the applicable Suspension Period from forty-five (45) calendar days to ninety (90) calendar days; provided, however, that Suspension Periods (including, without limitation, any such extension of a Suspension Period) shall not exceed an aggregate of one hundred twenty (120) calendar days in any three hundred sixty (360) calendar day period. Each Investor shall keep confidential any communications received by it from the Company regarding the suspension of the use of the Prospectus, except as required by applicable Laws.

(k) The Company shall enter into such customary agreements and take all such other necessary actions in connection therewith (including those reasonably requested by any Investor) in order to expedite or facilitate disposition of such Registrable Securities; provided, that the Company shall not be required to take any action in connection with an underwritten offering without the Company’s consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(l) To the extent permitted by Law, the Company shall (i) make reasonably available for inspection by any Investor and by any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to any Registration Statement, and by any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by such Investor or any such underwriter, all relevant financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company and its subsidiaries, and (ii) cause the Company’s officers, Directors and employees to make reasonably available for inspection all information reasonably requested by any Investor or any such underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such Registration Statement, in each case, as is customary for similar due diligence examinations; provided, however, that such Persons shall, at the Company’s request, first enter into the Company’s standard confidentiality agreement, which, among other things, requires that confidential information shall be used solely for the purposes of exercising rights under this Agreement, unless such disclosure is made in connection with a court proceeding or required by Law, or such records, information or documents become available to the public generally or through a third party without an accompanying obligation of confidentiality; provided, further, that, if the foregoing inspection and information gathering would otherwise disrupt the Company’s conduct of its business, such inspection and information gathering shall, to the greatest extent possible, be coordinated on behalf of the Investors and the other parties entitled thereto by one counsel designated by and on behalf of the Investors and other such parties.

(m) The Company shall use its best efforts to furnish to each Investor and, in any underwritten offering, each underwriter, a signed counterpart of (i) an opinion of counsel for the Company and (ii) a “comfort” letter signed by the independent public accountants who have certified the Company’s financial statements included or incorporated by reference in such Registration Statement, in each case addressed to each Investor and, if applicable, each underwriter, covering matters with respect to such Registration Statement (and the Prospectus included therein) as the managing underwriter, if any, and the Investors shall request.

(n) The Company shall use its best efforts to cause the Registrable Securities to be listed on the NYSE or other market or stock exchange on which the Ordinary Common Stock primarily trades on or prior to the Effective Time of each Registration Statement hereunder.

(o) The Company shall cooperate and assist in any filings required to be made with Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.

(p) The Company shall use its best efforts to take all other steps necessary to effect the registration, offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by each Registration Statement contemplated hereby, including by taking all appropriate steps with respect to the marketing of an offering of Registrable Securities and making its management available to participate in road shows and other marketing activities in connection therewith.

(q) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Initial Shelf and any subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be filed as an automatically effective registration statement if the Company is eligible to do so.

4.4 Registration Expenses. The Company shall bear all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the performance by the Company of its obligations under this Article IV whether or not any of the Registration Statements are declared effective. Such fees and expenses shall include, without limitation, (i) all registration and filing fees (including fees and expenses (x) with respect to filings required to be made with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. and (y) of compliance with United States federal and state securities or “blue sky” laws to the extent that such filings or compliance are required pursuant to this Agreement (including reasonable fees and disbursements of the counsel specified in the next sentence in connection with “blue sky” qualifications of the Registrable Securities under the laws of such jurisdictions as any Investor may designate)), (ii) printing expenses, (iii) duplication expenses relating to copies of any Registration Statement or Prospectus delivered to any Investor hereunder, (iv) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company in connection with any Registration Statement, (v) reasonable fees and disbursements of the transfer agent for the Common Stock, and (vi) all fees for any accountants, including in connection with any comfort letter. In addition, the Company shall bear or reimburse the Investors for the reasonable fees and disbursements of legal counsel for the Investors, which amount shall not exceed $100,000 in the aggregate. In addition, the Company shall pay the internal expenses of the Company (including all salaries and expenses of officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expense of any annual audit, the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the Registrable Securities on any securities exchange on which similar securities of the Company are then listed and the fees and expenses of any Person, including special experts, retained by the Company.

4.5 Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Investor, each underwriter, if any, and each Person, if any, who controls any such Investor or underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (for purposes of this Section 4.5(a), each an “indemnified party”), from and against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense whatsoever as incurred (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and any and all expenses whatsoever incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever, and any and all amounts paid in settlement of any claim or litigation), joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense (or action in respect thereof) arises out of, or is based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or any amendment thereto or any related preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus or any amendment thereto of supplement thereof, or arises out of, or is based upon, the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to any such indemnified party in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of an indemnified party specifically for use therein; (ii) an offer or sale by an Investor of Registrable Securities during a Suspension Period, if such indemnified party is an Investor or an Affiliate of an Investor that, in either case, received from the Company a notice of the commencement of such Suspension Period prior to the making of such offer or sale; or (iii) in a case where a copy of a Prospectus required to be delivered by such indemnified party, is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in a preliminary Prospectus and a copy of the amended or updated Prospectus was not sent or given by or on behalf of such indemnified party to the Person asserting an such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense (if required by Law so to have been delivered) at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of Registrable Securities as required by the Securities Act and the Prospectus would have corrected such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission; provided that in clause (iii) the Company had promptly notified the Investors of such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission in compliance with Section 4.3(i). The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability that the Company may otherwise have to any indemnified party. The Company shall not be liable under this Section 4.5(a) for any settlement of any action effected without its written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that with respect to actions pursuant to clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of Section 4.6(c), no such consent shall be required.

(b) Indemnification by the Investors. Each Investor, severally and not jointly, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (for purposes of this Section 4.5(b), each an “indemnified party”), from and against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense whatsoever as incurred (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and any and all expenses whatsoever incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever, and any and all amounts paid in settlement of any claim or litigation), joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense (or action in respect thereof) arises out of, or is based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or any amendment thereto or any related preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus or any amendment thereto or supplement thereof, or arises out of, or is based upon, the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Investor specifically for use therein. In no event shall the liability of any Investor hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds received by such Investor upon the sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement giving rise to such indemnification obligation, except in the case of fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence by an Investor. The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability that any Investor may otherwise have to the Company and any such controlling Person.

(c) Notices of Claims, Etc. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 4.5 of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 4.5, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or the commencement of such action; provided, however, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it of any liability that it may have under this Section 4.5, unless the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by such delay or failure. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 4.5 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that the indemnified party shall have the right to employ counsel to represent jointly the indemnified party and its respective directors, employees, officers and controlling persons who may be subject to liability arising out of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought by the indemnified party against the indemnifying party under this Section 4.5 if (i) employment of such counsel has been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party, or (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel to have charge of the defense of such proceeding within thirty (30) days of the receipt of notice thereof, or (iii) such indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded, based upon written advice of such indemnified party’s counsel, that the representation of such indemnified party and those directors, employees, officers and controlling persons by the same counsel representing the indemnifying party would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct due to actual or potential differing interests between them or where there may be one or more defenses available to them that are different from or in conflict with those available to the indemnifying party, and in any such event ((i), (ii) or (iii)) the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be paid by the indemnifying party as incurred. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to local counsel in each jurisdiction) for all indemnified parties in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), effect any settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened claim, investigation, action or proceeding in respect of which indemnity or contribution may be or could have been sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party or parties are actual or potential parties thereto) unless (1) such settlement, compromise or judgment (x) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and (y) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party, and (2) the indemnifying party confirms in writing its indemnification obligations hereunder with respect to such settlement, compromise or judgment.

(d) Contribution. To the extent the indemnification provided for in this Section 4.5 is unavailable to or unenforceable an indemnified party under Section 4.5(a) or Section 4.5(b), then (i) each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to in Section 4.5(a) or Section 4.5(b) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other from the registration of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement, or (ii) if the allocation provided by the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by applicable Laws, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not

only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, on the one hand, or such Investor or such other indemnified party, as the case may be, on the other hand, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this Section 4.5(d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim that is the subject of this Section 4.5(d). The Company and the Investors agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.5(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to herein. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.5(d), no Investor of the Registrable Securities shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the gross proceeds received by such Investor from the sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to applicable Registration Statement exceeds the amount of damages that such Investor has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 4.5(d), each Person, if any, who controls such indemnified party within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such indemnified party and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company. The Investors’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 4.5(d) are several in proportion to the respective amount of Registrable Securities that they have sold pursuant to a Registration Statement and not joint. The remedies provided for in this Section 4.5(d) are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies that may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.

(e) Survival. The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 4.5 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Investor or any Person controlling any Investor, or by or on behalf of the Company, its officers or Directors or any Person controlling the Company, and (iii) any sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement.

4.6 Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC that may at times permit the sale of Registrable Securities to the public in the United States without registration after the Filing Determination Date, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to:

(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act;

(b) file, as and when applicable, with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act; and

(c) furnish to each Investor forthwith upon request a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 and the Exchange Act.

4.7 Lock Up. In connection with any underwritten offering of the Company’s securities, each Investor and Permitted Holder of Registrable Securities agrees that upon request of the Company or the underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company’s securities, that it will (a) not offer, sell, contract to sell, loan, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale or otherwise dispose of, hedge or transfer any of the economic interest in (or offer, agree or commit to do any of the foregoing) any shares of Common Stock, or any options or warrants to purchase any shares of Common Stock, or any securities convertible into, exchangeable for or that represent the right to receive shares of Common Stock, whether now owned or hereinafter acquired, owned directly (including holding as a custodian) or with respect to which such Person has beneficial ownership within the rules and regulations of the Commission (other than those included by such Person in the offering in question, if any) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for up to fourteen (14) days prior to, and during the ninety (90) day period following, the effective date of the registration statement for such underwritten offering, and (b) enter into and be bound by such form of agreement with respect to the foregoing as the Company or such managing underwriter may reasonably request; provided that each executive officer and director of the Company also agrees to substantially similar restrictions. The restrictions set forth in this Section 4.7 shall terminate, with respect to an Investor and its Permitted Holders, when such Investor and its Permitted Holders own less than 7.5% of the outstanding Common Stock, after giving effect to such Investor’s and its Permitted Holders’ Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and Class B Common Stock on an as converted basis using the Base Price on the date of the request of the Company or the underwriters mentioned above of in calculating the amount of outstanding Common Stock; provided

that, unless the SPA is earlier terminated, no such termination shall be effective until the later of (i) the Third Closing and (ii) 90 days following completion of a Third Party Financing.

Except as otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Securities Purchase Agreement.

In rendering this opinion, I or attorneys on my staff have examined originals or copies (including facsimile transmissions), certified or otherwise identified to us as true and correct copies of originals, of the following documents:

(1) the Securities Purchase Agreement;

(2) the Investor Rights Agreement dated as of May     , 2010 between the Company and you (the “Investor Rights Agreement”);

(3) the Strategic Relationship Agreement dated as of May 25, 2010 between the Company and you (the “Strategic Relationship Agreement,” and together with the Securities Purchase Agreement and Investor Rights Agreement, the “Transaction Agreements”);

(4) the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, in the form filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on June 29, 1998, the Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, in the form filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on April 25, 2008, the Certificate of Designation, Preferences and Rights of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock of the Company, in the form filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on April 25, 2001 and the Certificate of Increase of Certificate of Designation, Preferences and Rights of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock of the Company, in the form filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on September 21, 2007 (collectively, the “Certificate of Incorporation”) and the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company in effect as of May     , 2010 (“Bylaws,” and together with the Certificate of Incorporation, the “Governing Documents”);

(9) the Warrant to Purchase Class B Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock of USEC Inc. (the “Warrant”); and

(10) such other documents as we have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinions set forth below.

In our examination, we have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified, conformed, facsimile or photostatic copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such copies. In making our examination of documents executed or to be executed by parties other than the Company (each such party, an “Other Party”), we have assumed that such parties had the power, corporate or other, to enter into and perform all obligations thereunder and have also assumed the due authorization by all requisite action, corporate or other, and execution and delivery by such parties of such documents and that such documents constitute the valid and binding obligations of such parties. As to any facts material to the opinions expressed herein which we did not independently establish or verify, we have relied upon oral or written statements and representations of officers and other representatives and of public officials, including the facts and conclusions set forth therein.

I am admitted to practice in the State of New York and the District of Columbia. This opinion is limited to matters arising under the laws of the State of New York, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the federal laws of the United States of America. I do not express any opinion as to the laws of any other jurisdiction or as to the municipal laws or the laws, rules or regulations of any local agencies or governmental authorities of or within the State of New York, or in each case as to any matters arising thereunder or relating thereto. In giving the opinions in paragraph 1, I have assumed with your permission that to the extent any indenture, mortgage, lease, contract, agreement or instrument referenced therein is governed by laws other than the laws of the State of New York that such indenture, mortgage, lease, contract, agreement or instrument would be interpreted in the same manner as if they were governed by the laws of the State of New York.

Based upon the foregoing and subject to the limitations, qualifications, exceptions and assumptions set forth herein, I am of the opinion that:

1. The execution and delivery by the Company of each of the Transaction Agreements, the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder and the issuance and sale at the First Closing of shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock and the Warrants pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement by the Company on the date hereof do not constitute a violation of, or a default under any indenture, mortgage, lease, contract, agreement, instrument or other arrangement by which the Company is bound and listed as an exhibit to the Company’s most recent (x) Annual Report on Form 10-K or (y) Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (collectively, the “SEC Exhibits”), except for violations or defaults which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

2. The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 250,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.10 per share and 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $1.00 per share, of which (i) shares are designated Series A Preferred Stock, (ii) shares are designated Series B-1 Preferred Stock, (iii) shares are designated Series B-2 Preferred Stock, and (iv) shares are designated Series C Preferred Stock.

3. The Foreign Ownership Restrictions Determination has been duly adopted.

4. To my knowledge, there is no action, litigation or proceeding pending or threatened in writing by or before any Governmental Authority which is reasonably likely to materially and adversely affect the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under the Transaction Agreements or which seeks to prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements.

5. The issuance and sale of the shares of Series B-1 Preferred Stock and the Warrants by the Company at the First Closing, and the issuance of shares of Class B Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B-1 Preferred Stock issued in the First Closing or the Series C Preferred Stock and upon the exercise of the Warrants issued in the First Closing are free of preemptive or similar rights arising under the SEC Exhibits.

This opinion is given as of the date hereof and I assume no obligation to update or supplement this opinion to reflect any facts or circumstances, which may hereafter come to my attention or any changes in laws which may hereafter occur. This opinion is solely for your benefit in connection with the above-referenced transaction and it may not be relied upon by any other person, and it may not be used for any other purpose, without my prior written consent, which may be granted or withheld in my sole discretion.

Very truly yours,

Except as otherwise stated herein, our opinions herein are based upon our consideration of only those statutes, rules and regulations which, in our experience, are normally applicable to the sales of shares of convertible preferred stock and warrants in a private placement.

We express no opinion with respect to those matters, and to the extent elements of those opinions are necessary to the conclusions expressed herein, we have, with your consent, assumed such matters.

Subject to the foregoing and the other matters set forth herein, as of the date hereof:⁸

1. The Company is a corporation under the Delaware General Corporation Law, with corporate power and authority to enter into the Transaction Agreements and the Rights Agreement Amendment and perform its obligations thereunder. With your consent, based solely on certificates from public officials, we confirm that the Company is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.

2. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Agreements and the Rights Agreement Amendment have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company, and the Transaction Agreements have been duly executed and delivered by the Company.

3. Each of the Transaction Agreements constitutes a legally valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms.

4. The execution and delivery of the Transaction Agreements by the Company, the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder and the issuance and sale by the Company pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement at the First Closing of shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock (the “First Closing Preferred Shares”)⁹ and the Warrants (the “First Closing Warrants”)^10,11 on the date hereof do not:

(i) violate the provisions of the Governing Documents;

(ii) violate any United States federal or New York statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company or the Delaware General Corporation Law; or

(iii) require any consents, approvals or authorizations to be obtained by the Company from, or any registrations, declarations or filings to be made by the Company with, any governmental authority, under any United States federal or New York statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company or the Delaware General Corporation Law on or prior to the date hereof that have not been obtained or made.

5. The First Closing Preferred Shares have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company, and, when issued to and paid for by you in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Series B-1 Certificate of Designation, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free of preemptive rights arising from the Governing Documents.

6. The shares of the Series C Preferred Stock¹² initially issuable upon conversion of the First Closing Preferred Shares or upon exercise of the First Closing Warrants have been duly authorized and reserved for issuance by all necessary corporate action of the Company, and, when issued to and, in the case of shares issuable upon exercise of the First Closing Warrants, paid for by, you in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Series B-1 Certificate of Designation (in the case of shares of Series C Preferred Stock issuable upon conversion of First Closing Preferred Shares), the First Closing Warrants (in the case of shares of Series C Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise of the

First Closing Warrants) and the Series C Certificate of Designation, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free of preemptive rights arising from the Governing Documents.

7. The shares of the Company’s Ordinary Common Stock initially issuable upon conversion of the First Closing Preferred Shares have been duly authorized and reserved for issuance by all necessary corporate action of the Company, and, when issued in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Series B-1 Certificate of Designation will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free of preemptive rights arising from the Governing Documents.¹³

8. The shares of the Company’s Ordinary Common Stock initially issuable upon conversion of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock which are initially issuable upon conversion of First Closing Preferred Shares or upon exercise of the First Closing Warrants, have been duly authorized and reserved for issuance by all necessary corporate action of the Company, and, assuming that such shares of Series C Preferred Stock have been validly issued, when such shares of the Company’s Ordinary Common Stock are issued in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Series C Certificate of Designation, such shares of Ordinary Common Stock will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free of preemptive rights arising from the Governing Documents.

9. Assuming the representations and warranties of the parties thereto in the Transaction Agreements are true and assuming compliance by the parties thereto with their respective covenants and agreements set forth therein, no registration of the First Closing Preferred Shares or the First Closing Warrants under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, is required for the purchase by you of such First Closing Preferred Shares or First Closing Warrants in the manner contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement.

Our opinions are subject to:

(a) the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, preference, fraudulent transfer, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights or remedies of creditors;

(b) the effects of general principles of equity, whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law (including the possible unavailability of specific performance or injunctive relief), concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, and the discretion of the court before which a proceeding is brought;

(c) the invalidity under certain circumstances under law or court decisions of provisions for the indemnification of or contribution to a party with respect to a liability where such indemnification or contribution is contrary to public policy; and

(d) we express no opinion with respect to (i) consents to, or restrictions upon, governing law or jurisdiction, venue, arbitration, remedies or judicial relief; (ii) advance waivers of claims, defenses, rights granted by law, or notice, opportunity for hearing, evidentiary requirements, statutes of limitation, trial by jury or at law, or other procedural rights; (iii) waivers of broadly or vaguely stated rights; (iv) covenants not to compete; (v) provisions for exclusivity, election, cumulation or limitation of rights or remedies; (vi) provisions authorizing or validating conclusive or discretionary determinations; (vii) grants of setoff rights; (viii) provisions for the payment of attorneys’ fees where such payment is contrary to law or public policy; (ix) proxies, powers of attorney, and voting agreements or trusts; (x) provisions prohibiting, restricting or requiring consent to assignment or transfer of any right or property; (xi) provisions for liquidated damages, default interest, late charges, monetary penalties, make-whole premiums or other economic remedies to the extent such provisions are deemed to constitute a penalty; and (xii) the severability, if invalid, of provisions to the foregoing effect.

We express no opinion as to United States federal or state securities laws (except as set forth in paragraph 9 with respect to federal securities laws), tax laws, antitrust or trade regulation laws (including Hart-Scott-Rodino), insolvency or fraudulent transfer laws, antifraud laws, or compliance with fiduciary duty requirements, margin regulations, FINRA rules, stock exchange rules, pension or employee benefit laws, usury laws, environmental laws, any law or regulation concerning energy or nuclear materials (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any regulation or other legal guidance of the Department of Energy or the Nuclear Regulatory Commission), any law, regulation or legal guidance concerning classified or sensitive information, export control, anti-money laundering or anti-terrorism laws (including Office of Foreign Assets Control Regulations), or laws governing foreign investments in the United States (including CFIUS) (without limiting other laws excluded by customary practice).

With your consent, we have assumed (a) that the Transaction Agreements have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by, and constitute legally valid and binding obligations of, the parties thereto other than the Company, enforceable against each of them in accordance with their respective terms, (b) that the status of the Transaction Agreements as legally valid and binding obligations of the parties is not affected by any (i) breaches of, or defaults under, agreements or instruments, (ii) violations of statutes, rules, regulations or court or governmental orders, or (iii) failures to obtain required consents, approvals or authorizations from, or make required registrations, declarations or filings with, governmental authorities, provided that we make no such assumption to the extent we have specifically opined as to such matters with respect to the Company herein; and (c) that none of the Transaction Agreements has been amended, modified, supplemented or terminated since the original date of execution thereof and that no rights of any parties thereto have been waived by any action or inaction of theirs. With your consent, for purposes of our opinions in paragraphs 6,7 and 8, we have further assumed that, at the time the shares of a particular class or series of capital stock are issued, the Company has sufficient authorized shares of that class or series.

This letter is furnished only to you and is solely for your benefit in connection with the transactions referenced in the first paragraph. This letter may not be relied upon by you for any other purpose, or furnished to, assigned to, quoted to or relied upon by any other person, firm or other entity for any purpose, without our prior written consent, which may be granted or withheld in our discretion.

We have acted as special counsel for USEC Inc. on certain regulatory matters as specified below in connection with the purchase by you of Series B-1 12.5% Preferred Stock, Series B-2 11.5% Preferred Stock and Warrants issued by USEC Inc., pursuant to the “Securities Purchase Agreement among USEC Inc., Toshiba Corporation, and Babcock & Wilcox Investment Company,” dated as of May 25, 2010 (the “Purchase Agreement”), among USEC Inc. (the “Issuer”) and Toshiba Corporation and Babcock & Wilcox Investment Company (the “Purchasers”).

In rendering the opinions set forth below, we have reviewed copies of the following documents and instruments:

(i) the Purchase Agreement;

(ii) the Investor Rights Agreement;

(iii) the Series B-1 Certificate of Designation;

(iv) the Series B-2 Certificate of Designation;

(v) the Series C Certificate of Designation;

(vi) the Strategic Relationship Agreement;

(vii) the Charter Amendment;

(viii) the Foreign Ownership Restrictions Determination;

(ix) the Warrants;

such documents and instruments identified in (ii) – (ix) above being as defined in the Purchase Agreement. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Purchase Agreement.

The documents listed in clauses (i) through (ix) above are referred to herein as the “Transaction Documents.” In rendering the opinions set forth herein, we have, with your consent, relied only upon examination of the documents described above. As to any facts material to our opinions, we have made no independent investigation of such facts and have relied, to the extent that we deem such reliance proper, upon statements of public officials and officers or other representatives of the Issuer and the Purchasers and on the representations and warranties set forth in the Transaction Documents.

In rendering the opinions expressed below, we have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to authentic original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies, and the accuracy and completeness of all corporate, limited liability company, partnership and other entity records made available to us, which assumptions we have not independently verified.

Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the assumptions, qualifications, exceptions and limitations set forth herein, it is our opinion that:

1. The execution and delivery by the Issuer of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party in connection with the First Closing, and the performance by the Issuer of its obligations thereunder, including the issue and sale of the Preferred Stock and Warrants by the Issuer, will not:

(i) result in any violation by the Issuer of any Applicable Regulatory Law (as defined below),

(ii) result in any violation by the Issuer of any order, writ, judgment or decree known to us issued under Applicable Regulatory Laws.

“Applicable Regulatory Laws” means: the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, and the related rules, regulations or orders of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (“NRC”); the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) foreign ownership, control or influence requirements and restrictions; the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976; and the requirements of the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) adopted pursuant to Section 721 of the Defense Production Act of 1950, as amended by the Foreign Investment and National Security Act of 2007, and as implemented by Executive Order 11858, as amended and 31 CFR Part 800.

2. All required Regulatory Approvals have been obtained for the issuance and sale of the Preferred Stock and Warrants by the Issuer and the performance by the Issuer of its obligations under each Transaction Document in connection with the First Closing, as applicable.

“Regulatory Approvals” means any consent, clearance, approval, license, permit, registration, certification, authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, the NRC, DOE, the U.S. Department of Justice, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, and CFIUS pursuant to any Applicable Regulatory Laws.

3. Other than the Regulatory Approvals set forth on Schedule B under the heading “First Closing” that have been obtained and the Regulatory Approval set forth in Section 2.9 (vi) of the Purchase Agreement that has been obtained, no Permit or order of, or filing with, any Governmental Authority is required in connection with the First Closing and the performance by the Issuer of its obligations under the Transaction Documents in connection therewith. No Permit or order of, or filing with, any Governmental Authority is required for the Transactions contemplated at the Second Closing and the Third Closing and the performance by the Issuer of its obligations under the Transaction Documents in connection therewith, except for the Regulatory Approvals set forth on Schedule B under the headings “Second Closing” and “Third Closing,” respectively and the Regulatory Approvals set forth in Sections 2.9 (iv) and (vi) of the Purchase Agreement that have not yet been obtained.

The opinions expressed herein are limited to the matters discussed above; no opinion is implied or may be inferred

beyond such matters.

This opinion has been prepared in accordance with the customary practice of lawyers who regularly give, and lawyers who regularly advise recipients regarding, opinions of this kind.

We express no opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than Applicable Regulatory Laws.

This letter is rendered as of the date set forth above. We expressly disclaim any obligation to update this letter after such date.

This letter is given solely for your benefit in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and may not be furnished to, or relied upon by, any other person or for any other purpose without our prior written consent.

Re: Securities Purchase Agreement

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I am the General Counsel of USEC Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). This opinion is being delivered to you pursuant to Section 4.2(k) of that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of May 25, 2010 among the Company, Toshiba Corporation and Babcock & Wilcox Investment Company (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) in connection with the contemplated issuance and sale of 125,000 shares of the Company’s Series B-1 12.75% Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share, 75,000 shares of the Company’s Series B-2 11.5% Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share, and Warrants to purchase 12,500,000 shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock, par value $0.10 per share, to be authorized pursuant to the Charter Amendment, and/or the Company’s Series C Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share, pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement. Except as otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Securities Purchase Agreement.

In rendering this opinion, I or attorneys on my staff have examined originals or copies (including facsimile transmissions), certified or otherwise identified to us as true and correct copies of originals, of the following documents:

(1) the Securities Purchase Agreement;

(2) the Investor Rights Agreement dated as of             , 2010 between the Company and you (the “Investor Rights Agreement”);

(3) the Strategic Relationship Agreement dated as of May 25, 2010 between the Company and you (the “Strategic Relationship Agreement,” and together with the Securities Purchase Agreement and Investor Rights Agreement, the “Transaction Agreements”);

(4) the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, in the form filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on June 29, 1998, the Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, in the form filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on April 25, 2008, the Certificate of Designation, Preferences and Rights of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock of the Company, in the form filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on April 25, 2001, the Certificate of Increase of Certificate of Designation, Preferences and Rights of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock of the Company, in the form filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on September 21, 2007, the Certificate of Designation of Series B-1 12.75% Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company, in the form filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on [            ], the Certificate of Designation of Series B-2 11.5% Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company, in the form filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on [            ] and the Certificate of Designation of Series C Convertible

Participating Preferred Stock of the Company, in the form filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on [            ] (collectively, the “Certificate of Incorporation”) and the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company in effect as of May         , 2010 (“Bylaws,” and together with the Certificate of Incorporation, the “Governing Documents”);

(5) the form of Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation of USEC Inc. attached to the Securities Purchase Agreement as Exhibit L (the “Charter Amendment”);

(6) the Warrant to Purchase Class B Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock of USEC Inc. (the “Warrant”); and

(7) such other documents as we have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinions set forth below.

In our examination, we have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified, conformed, facsimile or photostatic copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such copies. In making our examination of documents executed or to be executed by parties other than the Company (each such party, an “Other Party”), we have assumed that such parties had the power, corporate or other, to enter into and perform all obligations thereunder and have also assumed the due authorization by all requisite action, corporate or other, and execution and delivery by such parties of such documents and that such documents constitute the valid and binding obligations of such parties. As to any facts material to the opinions expressed herein which we did not independently establish or verify, we have relied upon oral or written statements and representations of officers and other representatives and of public officials, including the facts and conclusions set forth therein.

I am admitted to practice in the State of New York and the District of Columbia. This opinion is limited to matters arising under the laws of the State of New York, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the federal laws of the United States of America. I do not express any opinion as to the laws of any other jurisdiction or as to the municipal laws or the laws, rules or regulations of any local agencies or governmental authorities of or within the State of New York, or in each case as to any matters arising thereunder or relating thereto. In giving the opinions in paragraph 1, I have assumed with your permission that to the extent any indenture, mortgage, lease, contract, agreement or instrument referenced therein is governed by laws other than the laws of the State of New York that such indenture, mortgage, lease, contract, agreement or instrument would be interpreted in the same manner as if they were governed by the laws of the State of New York.

Based upon the foregoing and subject to the limitations, qualifications, exceptions and assumptions set forth herein, I am of the opinion that:

1. The issuance and sale at the Second Closing of shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement by the Company on the date hereof do not constitute a violation of, or a default under any indenture, mortgage, lease, contract, agreement, instrument or other arrangement by which the Company is bound and listed as an exhibit to the Company’s most recent (x) Annual Report on Form 10-K or (y) Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (collectively, the “SEC Exhibits”), except for violations or defaults which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

2. The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 250,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.10 per share and 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $1.00 per share, of which (i) shares are designated Series A Preferred Stock, (ii) shares are designated Series B-1 Preferred Stock, (iii) shares are designated Series B-2 Preferred Stock, and (iv) shares are designated Series C Preferred Stock.¹⁶

3. To my knowledge, there is no action, litigation or proceeding pending or threatened in writing by or before any Governmental Authority which is reasonably likely to materially and adversely affect the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under the Transaction Agreements or which seeks to prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements.

4. The issuance and sale of the shares of Series B-1 Preferred Stock by the Company at the Second Closing, and the issuance of shares of Class B Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B-1 Preferred Stock issued in the Second Closing are free of preemptive or similar rights arising under the SEC Exhibits.

This opinion is given as of the date hereof and I assume no obligation to update or supplement this opinion to reflect any facts or circumstances, which may hereafter come to my attention or any changes in laws which may hereafter occur. This opinion is solely for your benefit in connection with the above-referenced transaction and it may not be relied upon by any other person, and it may not be used for any other purpose, without my prior written consent, which may be

granted or withheld in my sole discretion.

Very truly yours,

¹⁶ If the Charter Amendment is approved and filed, this Opinion will be modified as follows: “The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 475,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.10 per share, of which (a) 350,000,000 shares are designated Common Stock and (b) 125,000,000 shares are designated Class B Common Stock; and 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $1.00 per share, of which (i) shares are designated Series A Preferred Stock, (ii) shares are designated Series B-1 Preferred Stock, (iii) shares are designated Series B-2 Preferred Stock, and (iv) shares are designated Series C Preferred Stock.”

Except as otherwise stated herein, our opinions herein are based upon our consideration of only those statutes, rules and regulations which, in our experience, are normally applicable to the sales of shares of convertible preferred stock and warrants in a private placement. Various issues pertaining to [            ] are addressed in the opinions of the Company’s General Counsel and Morgan, Lewis & Bockius LLP, separately provided to you. We express no opinion with respect to those matters, and to the extent elements of those opinions are necessary to the conclusions expressed herein, we have, with your consent, assumed such matters.

Subject to the foregoing and the other matters set forth herein, as of the date hereof:²⁰

1. The Company is a corporation under the Delaware General Corporation Law, with corporate power and authority to enter into the Transaction Agreements and the Rights Agreement Amendment and perform its obligations thereunder. With your consent, based solely on certificates from public officials, we confirm that the Company is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.

2. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Agreements and the Rights Agreement Amendment have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company, and the Transaction Agreements have been duly executed and delivered by the Company.

3. Each of the Transaction Agreements constitutes a legally valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms.

4. The execution and delivery of the Transaction Agreements by the Company, the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder and the issuance and sale by the Company pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement at the First Closing of shares of Series B-1 12.75% Preferred Stock (the “First Closing Preferred Shares”)²¹ and the Warrants (the “First Closing Warrants”)^22,23 on the date hereof do not:

(i) violate the provisions of the Governing Documents;

(ii) violate any United States federal or New York statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company or the Delaware General Corporation Law; or

(iii) require any consents, approvals or authorizations to be obtained by the Company from, or any registrations, declarations or filings to be made by the Company with, any governmental authority, under any United States federal or New York statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company or the Delaware General Corporation Law on or prior to the date hereof that have not been obtained or made.

5. The First Closing Preferred Shares have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company, and, when issued to and paid for by you in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Series B-1 Certificate of Designation, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free of preemptive rights arising from the Governing Documents.

6. The shares of the Series C Preferred Stock²⁴ initially issuable upon conversion of the First Closing Preferred Shares or upon exercise of the First Closing Warrants have been duly authorized and reserved for issuance by all necessary corporate action of the Company, and, when issued to and, in the case of shares issuable upon exercise of the First Closing Warrants, paid for by, you in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Series B-1

Certificate of Designation (in the case of shares of Series C Preferred Stock issuable upon conversion of First Closing Preferred Shares), the First Closing Warrants (in the case of shares of Series C Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise of the First Closing Warrants) and the Series C Certificate of Designation, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free of preemptive rights arising from the Governing Documents.

7. The shares of the Company’s Ordinary Common Stock initially issuable upon conversion of the First Closing Preferred Shares have been duly authorized and reserved for issuance by all necessary corporate action of the Company, and, when issued in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Series B-1 Certificate of Designation will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free of preemptive rights arising from the Governing Documents.²⁵

8. The shares of the Company’s Ordinary Common Stock initially issuable upon conversion of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock which are initially issuable upon conversion of First Closing Preferred Shares or upon exercise of the First Closing Warrants, have been duly authorized and reserved for issuance by all necessary corporate action of the Company, and, assuming that such shares of Series C Preferred Stock have been validly issued, when such shares of the Company’s Ordinary Common Stock are issued in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Series C Certificate of Designation, such shares of Ordinary Common Stock will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free of preemptive rights arising from the Governing Documents.

9. Assuming the representations and warranties of the parties thereto in the Transaction Agreements are true and assuming compliance by the parties thereto with their respective covenants and agreements set forth therein, no registration of the First Closing Preferred Shares or the First Closing Warrants under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, is required for the purchase by you of such First Closing Preferred Shares or First Closing Warrants in the manner contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement.

Our opinions are subject to:

(a) the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, preference, fraudulent transfer, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights or remedies of creditors;

(b) the effects of general principles of equity, whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law (including the possible unavailability of specific performance or injunctive relief), concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, and the discretion of the court before which a proceeding is brought;

(c) the invalidity under certain circumstances under law or court decisions of provisions for the indemnification of or contribution to a party with respect to a liability where such indemnification or contribution is contrary to public policy; and

(d) we express no opinion with respect to (i) consents to, or restrictions upon, governing law or jurisdiction, venue, arbitration, remedies or judicial relief; (ii) advance waivers of claims, defenses, rights granted by law, or notice, opportunity for hearing, evidentiary requirements, statutes of limitation, trial by jury or at law, or other procedural rights; (iii) waivers of broadly or vaguely stated rights; (iv) covenants not to compete; (v) provisions for exclusivity, election, cumulation or limitation of rights or remedies; (vi) provisions authorizing or validating conclusive or discretionary determinations; (vii) grants of setoff rights; (viii) provisions for the payment of attorneys’ fees where such payment is contrary to law or public policy; (ix) proxies, powers of attorney, and voting agreements or trusts; (x) provisions prohibiting, restricting or requiring consent to assignment or transfer of any right or property; (xi) provisions for liquidated damages, default interest, late charges, monetary penalties, make-whole premiums or other economic remedies to the extent such provisions are deemed to constitute a penalty; and (xii) the severability, if invalid, of provisions to the foregoing effect.

We express no opinion as to United States federal or state securities laws (except as set forth in paragraph 9 with respect to federal securities laws), tax laws, antitrust or trade regulation laws (including Hart-Scott-Rodino), insolvency or fraudulent transfer laws, antifraud laws, or compliance with fiduciary duty requirements, margin regulations, FINRA rules, stock exchange rules, pension or employee benefit laws, usury laws, environmental laws, any law or regulation concerning energy or nuclear materials (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any regulation or other legal guidance of the Department of Energy or the Nuclear Regulatory Commission), any law, regulation or legal guidance concerning classified or sensitive information, export control, anti-money laundering or anti-terrorism laws (including Office of Foreign Assets Control Regulations), or laws governing foreign investments in the United States (including CFIUS) (without limiting other laws excluded by customary practice).

With your consent, we have assumed (a) that the Transaction Agreements have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by, and constitute legally valid and binding obligations of, the parties thereto other than the Company, enforceable against each of them in accordance with their respective terms, (b) that the status of the Transaction Agreements as legally valid and binding obligations of the parties is not affected by any (i) breaches of, or defaults under, agreements or instruments, (ii) violations of statutes, rules, regulations or court or governmental orders, or (iii) failures to obtain required consents, approvals or authorizations from, or make required registrations, declarations or filings with, governmental authorities, provided that we make no such assumption to the extent we have specifically opined as to such matters with respect to the Company herein; and (c) that none of the Transaction Agreements has been amended, modified, supplemented or terminated since the original date of execution thereof and that no rights of any parties thereto have been waived by any action or inaction of theirs. With your consent, for purposes of our opinions in paragraphs 6,7 and 8, we have further assumed that, at the time the shares of a particular class or series of capital stock are issued, the Company has sufficient authorized shares of that class or series.

This letter is furnished only to you and is solely for your benefit in connection with the transactions referenced in the first paragraph. This letter may not be relied upon by you for any other purpose, or furnished to, assigned to, quoted to or relied upon by any other person, firm or other entity for any purpose, without our prior written consent, which may be granted or withheld in our discretion.

We have acted as special counsel for USEC Inc. on certain regulatory matters as specified below in connection with the purchase by you of Series B-1 12.5% Preferred Stock, Series B-2 11.5% Preferred Stock and Warrants issued by USEC Inc., pursuant to the “Securities Purchase Agreement among USEC Inc., Toshiba Corporation, and Babcock & Wilcox Investment Company,” dated as of May 25, 2010 (the “Purchase Agreement”), among USEC Inc. (the “Issuer”) and Toshiba Corporation and Babcock & Wilcox Investment Company (the “Purchasers”).

In rendering the opinions set forth below, we have reviewed copies of the following documents and instruments:

(i) the Purchase Agreement;

(ii) the Investor Rights Agreement;

(iii) the Series B-1 Certificate of Designation;

(iv) the Series B-2 Certificate of Designation;

(v) the Series C Certificate of Designation;

(vi) the Strategic Relationship Agreement;

(vii) the Charter Amendment;

(viii) the Foreign Ownership Restrictions Determination;

such documents and instruments identified in (ii) – (viii) above being as defined in the Purchase Agreement. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Purchase Agreement.

The documents listed in clauses (i) through (viii) above are referred to herein as the “Transaction Documents.” In rendering the opinions set forth herein, we have, with your consent, relied only upon examination of the documents described above. As to any facts material to our opinions, we have made no independent investigation of such facts and have relied, to the extent that we deem such reliance proper, upon statements of public officials and officers or other representatives of the Issuer and the Purchasers and on the representations and warranties set forth in the Transaction Documents.

In rendering the opinions expressed below, we have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to authentic original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies, and the accuracy and completeness of all corporate, limited liability company, partnership and other entity records made available to us, which assumptions we have not independently verified.

Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the assumptions, qualifications, exceptions and limitations set forth herein, it is our opinion that:

1. The issuance and sale of the Preferred Stock by the Issuer in connection with the Second Closing and the performance by the Issuer of its obligations thereunder and under the Purchase Agreement, will not:

(i) result in any violation by the Issuer of any Applicable Regulatory Law (as defined below),

(ii) result in any violation by the Issuer of any order, writ, judgment or decree known to us issued under Applicable Regulatory Laws.

“Applicable Regulatory Laws” means: the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, and the related rules, regulations or orders of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (“NRC”); the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) foreign ownership, control or influence requirements and restrictions; the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976; and the requirements of the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) adopted pursuant to Section 721 of the Defense Production Act of 1950, as amended by the Foreign Investment and National Security Act of 2007, and as implemented by Executive Order 11858, as amended and 31 CFR Part 800.

2. All required Regulatory Approvals have been obtained for the issuance and sale of the Preferred Stock by the Issuer and the performance by the Issuer of its obligations under each Transaction Document in connection with the Second Closing, as applicable.

“Regulatory Approvals” means any consent, clearance, approval, license, permit, registration, certification, authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, the NRC, DOE, the U.S. Department of Justice, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, and CFIUS pursuant to any Applicable Regulatory Laws.

3. Other than the Regulatory Approvals set forth on Schedule B under the heading “Second Closing” that have been obtained and the Regulatory Approvals set forth in Sections 2.9 (iv) and (vi) of the Purchase Agreement that have been obtained, no Permit or order of, or filing with, any Governmental Authority is required in connection with the Second Closing and the performance by the Issuer of its obligations under the Transaction Documents in connection therewith. No Permit or order of, or filing with, any Governmental Authority is required for the Transactions contemplated at the Third Closing and the performance by the Issuer of its obligations under the Transaction Documents in connection therewith, except for the Regulatory Approvals set forth on Schedule B under the heading “Third Closing” and the Regulatory Approvals set forth in Sections 2.9 (iv) and (vi) of the Purchase Agreement that have not been obtained.

The opinions expressed herein are limited to the matters discussed above; no opinion is implied or may be inferred

beyond such matters.

This opinion has been prepared in accordance with the customary practice of lawyers who regularly give, and lawyers who regularly advise recipients regarding, opinions of this kind.

We express no opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than Applicable Regulatory Laws.

This letter is rendered as of the date set forth above. We expressly disclaim any obligation to update this letter after such date.

Re: Securities Purchase Agreement

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I am the General Counsel of USEC Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). This opinion is being delivered to you pursuant to Section 4.2(k) of that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of May 25, 2010 among the Company, Toshiba Corporation and Babcock & Wilcox Investment Company (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) in connection with the contemplated issuance and sale of 125,000 shares of the Company’s Series B-1 12.75% Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share, 75,000 shares of the Company’s Series B-2 11.5% Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share, and Warrants to purchase 12,500,000 shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock, par value $0.10 per share, to be authorized pursuant to the Charter Amendment, and/or the Company’s Series C Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share, pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement. Except as otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Securities Purchase Agreement.

In rendering this opinion, I or attorneys on my staff have examined originals or copies (including facsimile transmissions), certified or otherwise identified to us as true and correct copies of originals, of the following documents:

(1) the Securities Purchase Agreement;

(2) the Investor Rights Agreement dated as of             , 2010 between the Company and you (the “Investor Rights Agreement”);

(3) the Strategic Relationship Agreement dated as of May 25, 2010 between the Company and you (the “Strategic Relationship Agreement,” and together with the Securities Purchase Agreement and Investor Rights Agreement, the “Transaction Agreements”);

(4) the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, in the form filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on June 29, 1998, the Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, in the form filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on April 25, 2008, the Certificate of Designation, Preferences and Rights of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock of the Company, in the form filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on April 25, 2001, the Certificate of Increase of Certificate of Designation, Preferences and Rights of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock of the Company, in the form filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on September 21, 2007, the Certificate of Designation of Series B-1 12.75% Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company, in the form filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on [            ], the Certificate of Designation of Series B-2 11.5% Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company, in the form filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on [            ] and the Certificate of Designation of Series C Convertible Participating Preferred Stock of the Company, in the form filed with the Secretary of State of

the State of Delaware on [            ] and the Certificate of Designation of Series C Convertible Participating Preferred Stock of the Company, in the form filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on [            ] (collectively, the “Certificate of Incorporation”) and the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company in effect as of May     , 2010 (“Bylaws,” and together with the Certificate of Incorporation, the “Governing Documents”);

(5) the form of Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation of USEC Inc. attached to the Securities Purchase Agreement as Exhibit L (the “Charter Amendment”);

(6) the Warrant to Purchase Class B Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock of USEC Inc. (the “Warrant”); and

(7) such other documents as we have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinions set forth below.

In our examination, we have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified, conformed, facsimile or photostatic copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such copies. In making our examination of documents executed or to be executed by parties other than the Company (each such party, an “Other Party”), we have assumed that such parties had the power, corporate or other, to enter into and perform all obligations thereunder and have also assumed the due authorization by all requisite action, corporate or other, and execution and delivery by such parties of such documents and that such documents constitute the valid and binding obligations of such parties. As to any facts material to the opinions expressed herein which we did not independently establish or verify, we have relied upon oral or written statements and representations of officers and other representatives and of public officials, including the facts and conclusions set forth therein.

I am admitted to practice in the State of New York and the District of Columbia. This opinion is limited to matters arising under the laws of the State of New York, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the federal laws of the United States of America. I do not express any opinion as to the laws of any other jurisdiction or as to the municipal laws or the laws, rules or regulations of any local agencies or governmental authorities of or within the State of New York, or in each case as to any matters arising thereunder or relating thereto. In giving the opinions in paragraph 1, I have assumed with your permission that to the extent any indenture, mortgage, lease, contract, agreement or instrument referenced therein is governed by laws other than the laws of the State of New York that such indenture, mortgage, lease, contract, agreement or instrument would be interpreted in the same manner as if they were governed by the laws of the State of New York.

Based upon the foregoing and subject to the limitations, qualifications, exceptions and assumptions set forth herein, I am of the opinion that:

1. The issuance and sale at the Third Closing of shares of Series B-2 11.5% Preferred Stock and the Warrants pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement by the Company on the date hereof do not constitute a violation of, or a default under any indenture, mortgage, lease, contract, agreement, instrument or other arrangement by which the Company is bound and listed as an exhibit to the Company’s most recent (x) Annual Report on Form 10-K or (y) Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (collectively, the “SEC Exhibits”), except for violations or defaults which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

2. The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 250,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.10 per share and 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $1.00 per share, of which (i) shares are designated Series A Preferred Stock, (ii) shares are designated Series B-1 Preferred Stock, (iii) shares are designated Series B-2 Preferred Stock, and (iv) shares are designated Series C Preferred Stock.²⁸

3. To my knowledge, there is no action, litigation or proceeding pending or threatened in writing by or before any Governmental Authority which is reasonably likely to materially and adversely affect the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under the Transaction Agreements or which seeks to prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements.

4. The issuance and sale of the shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock and the Warrants by the Company at the Third Closing, and the issuance of shares of Class B Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B-2 Preferred Stock issued in the Third Closing and upon the exercise of the Warrants issued in the Third Closing are free of preemptive or similar rights arising under the SEC Exhibits.

This opinion is given as of the date hereof and I assume no obligation to update or supplement this opinion to reflect

any facts or circumstances, which may hereafter come to my attention or any changes in laws which may hereafter occur. This opinion is solely for your benefit in connection with the above-referenced transaction and it may not be relied upon by any other person, and it may not be used for any other purpose, without my prior written consent, which may be granted or withheld in my sole discretion.

Very truly yours,

²⁸ If the Charter Amendment is approved and filed, this Opinion will be modified as follows: “The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 475,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.10 per share, of which (a) 350,000,000 shares are designated Common Stock and (b) 125,000,000 shares are designated Class B Common Stock; and 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $1.00 per share, of which (i) shares are designated Series A Preferred Stock, (ii) shares are designated Series B-1 Preferred Stock, (iii) shares are designated Series B-2 Preferred Stock, and (iv) shares are designated Series C Preferred Stock.”

FORM OF PRESS RELEASE

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

May 25, 2010

Toshiba and Babcock & Wilcox Announce Definitive Agreement to Invest in USEC

Goal Is to Enable Successful Deployment of Leading Edge Uranium Enrichment Technology for Commercial Nuclear Power

Plants

-Boost for Nuclear Renaissance; Support for Ohio-based American Centrifuge Project-

WASHINGTON AND TOKYO – (May 25, 2010) In a sign that the future of nuclear energy is bright, USEC Inc. (NYSE: USU), a global nuclear fuel and technology company, today announced that nuclear industry leaders Toshiba Corporation (TOKYO: 6502) and Babcock & Wilcox Investment Company, an affiliate of The Babcock & Wilcox Company (B&W), have signed a definitive agreement to make an investment in USEC over three phases, each of which is subject to satisfaction of specific preconditions, including regulatory approvals. The $200 million investment, shared equally between Toshiba and B&W, will strengthen the

deployment of the American Centrifuge Plant and create key new business opportunities throughout the nuclear fuel cycle. Both companies, with their deep experience in the nuclear field, consider the investment agreement as an important strategic initiative.

“We have decided to make this investment in American know-how and American technology in order to produce more uranium fuel for the growing worldwide nuclear power market with high confidence in USEC as a leading supplier of low enriched uranium. Toshiba has intensified its front-end supply chain by executing various programs. Along with these efforts, the investment in USEC

will strengthen the nuclear fuel supply chain,” said Yasuharu Igarashi, corporate senior vice president of Toshiba. “The nuclear renaissance is moving forward and this investment will help power its growth by securing the supply of uranium fuel for existing and potential customers.”

Brandon Bethards, president and CEO of B&W, said, “This agreement will allow B&W to explore broader energy opportunities globally through expanded strategic relationships with Toshiba and USEC, as well as further enhance our already-strong relationship with the U.S. Department of Energy. This initiative further solidifies our position as a key contributor to a successful nuclear

renaissance.”

USEC Inc. is a leading supplier of enriched uranium fuel for commercial nuclear power plants. USEC 2009 revenues were more than $2 billion.

“This is a new day for USEC in the era of nuclear power, and we’re heartened by these votes of confidence in USEC and the American Centrifuge Project from two global leaders in the nuclear power industry,” said John Welch, USEC president and CEO. “The agreement accelerates our

-more-

recent momentum and addresses a key issue in our sustained drive to deploy the innovative American Centrifuge technology. The strategic relationship between our companies will also create new business opportunities across the entire nuclear fuel cycle.”

The agreement comes at a time when the federal government is considering issuing a loan guarantee to support completion of USEC’s American Centrifuge Project, a next-generation uranium enrichment facility to be built in Piketon, Ohio. The project is based on the use of highly efficient centrifuges to produce uranium fuel. USEC is operating a cascade of centrifuge machines in a commercial plant configuration, collecting data and experience in preparation for transitioning into full commercial operation. USEC employees in several states are also involved in the design, development, testing and manufacturing of the centrifuge machines. If successful in obtaining a loan guarantee, the American Centrifuge Project could create at the peak of construction nearly 8,000 jobs, with almost half located in Ohio.

The investment is subject to applicable regulatory reviews.

(b) In the event of any automatic conversion pursuant to the terms of Section C.(vii)(a) of this Article FOURTH, the conversion shall be deemed to have been effected upon such Third-Party Transfer (the “Class B Common Stock Automatic Conversion Time”).

We are pleased to inform you that, on [                    ], 2010, the board of directors of McDermott International, Inc., or McDermott, approved the spin-off of The Babcock & Wilcox Company, or B&W, an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of McDermott, through a pro rata stock distribution to holders of McDermott common stock. B&W is a leading technology innovator in power generation systems, a specialty manufacturer of nuclear components and a premier service provider in its segments, with a rich legacy spanning over 140 years. We believe the spin-off, which will create two distinct businesses with separate publicly traded shares and, for each company, a dedicated board of directors and management, will better enable our offshore oil and gas construction business, which is conducted principally through J. Ray McDermott, S.A. and its subsidiaries, and our power generation systems and government operations businesses, which is conducted principally through B&W and its subsidiaries, to focus exclusively on realizing their own opportunities and addressing their distinct challenges. In addition, we believe that the two companies, each with its own financial and operating characteristics, will improve transparency for investors and may appeal to a wider combined investor base. For these reasons, we believe the spin-off is in the best interests of McDermott’s stockholders.

As a result of the spin-off, McDermott stockholders will receive one share of B&W common stock for every [            ] shares of McDermott common stock held as of 5:00 p.m. New York City time on [                    ], 2010, the record date. The distribution of B&W shares is expected to occur on [                    ], 2010. Stockholder approval of the spin-off is not required, and you do not need to take any action to receive shares of B&W common stock in the spin-off. The distribution, which is subject to several customary conditions, will be issued in book-entry form only, which means that no physical stock certificates representing interests in B&W will be issued. A book-entry account statement reflecting your ownership of shares of B&W common stock will be mailed to you, or your brokerage account will be credited for the shares on or about [                    ], 2010.

McDermott intends for the distribution of B&W common stock in the spin-off to be tax free for stockholders. To that end, McDermott has obtained a private letter ruling regarding the spin-off from the Internal Revenue Service. In addition, it is a condition to completing the spin-off that McDermott shall have received an opinion of counsel that the distribution of B&W common stock to McDermott stockholders will qualify as a distribution described in Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, for United States federal income tax purposes. The private letter ruling is, and the opinion will be, subject to certain qualifications and limitations. You should, of course, consult your own tax advisor as to the particular consequences of the spin-off to you, including the applicability and effect of any U.S. federal, state and local and foreign tax laws, which may result in the spin-off being taxable to you. The spin-off is also subject to other conditions, including necessary regulatory approvals.

If you sell your shares of McDermott common stock prior to or on the distribution date, you may also be selling your right to receive shares of B&W common stock. You are encouraged to consult with your financial advisor regarding the specific implications of selling your McDermott common stock prior to or on the distribution date.

Following the spin-off, McDermott common stock will continue to trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “MDR” and B&W common stock will trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “BWC.” You do not need to take any action to receive your shares of B&W common stock. You do not need to pay any consideration for your shares of B&W common stock or surrender or exchange your shares of McDermott common stock.

We encourage you to read the enclosed information statement, which is being mailed to all McDermott stockholders. It describes the spin-off in detail and contains important information about B&W, including financial statements.

We believe the spin-off is a positive event for McDermott’s stockholders, and we look forward to your continued support as a stockholder of McDermott. We remain committed to working on your behalf to build long-term stockholder value.

Sincerely,

Ronald C. Cambre	John A. Fees
Chairman of the Board	Chief Executive Officer

To Stockholders of The Babcock & Wilcox Company:

It is my pleasure to welcome you as a stockholder of The Babcock & Wilcox Company. Following the spin-off, we will continue as a leading technology innovator in power generation systems, a specialty manufacturer of nuclear components and a premier service provider in our segments, with a rich legacy spanning over 140 years. We design, engineer, manufacture, construct and maintain power generation systems and environmental control systems, primarily for large utility and industrial customers, as well as provide related aftermarket parts and services. For our largest customer, the U.S. Government, we supply nuclear components for defense programs; manage, operate and maintain large government-owned facilities; and provide services for major capital construction and environmental projects. During the period from 2007 through 2009, we generated an average of over $3 billion in annual revenues, with approximately $350 million in average annual operating income. We employ approximately 13,000 people worldwide, not including approximately 10,000 joint venture employees.

Our strategy as an independent company will be to maximize the profitability of our operations by (1) continuing to serve our existing customer base, including the U.S. Government, unencumbered by recent changes in the rules under the Federal Acquisition Regulations, (2) increasing the contribution of international projects to our results and (3) pursuing opportunities to reorient and expand our portfolio to take advantage of significant growth opportunities in nuclear and renewable energy, as well as clean coal. We believe that our strengths, including our experienced management team, our existing customer and joint venture relationships, our manufacturing facilities and our operating expertise will enable us to achieve our goals. We are very excited about our prospects and believe that, as an independent company, we can more effectively focus on our operations and growth strategies.

Our common stock has been approved for listing on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “BWC.”

We thank you in advance for your support as a holder of B&W common stock, and I invite you to learn more about B&W by reviewing the enclosed information statement.

Sincerely,

Brandon C. Bethards

President and Chief Executive Officer

The Babcock & Wilcox Company

EXHIBIT 99.1

INFORMATION STATEMENT

The Babcock & Wilcox Company

Common Stock

(par value $0.01 per share)

This information statement is being furnished in connection with the distribution by McDermott International, Inc., or McDermott, to its stockholders of all the outstanding shares of common stock of The Babcock & Wilcox Company, or B&W. As of the date of this information statement, McDermott owns all of B&W’s outstanding common stock.

On [                    ], 2010, after consultation with financial and other advisors, McDermott’s board of directors approved the distribution of 100% of McDermott’s interest in B&W. You, as a holder of McDermott common stock, will be entitled to receive one share of B&W common stock for every [            ] shares of McDermott common stock held as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the record date, [                    ], 2010. The distribution date for the spin-off will be [                    ], 2010.

You will not be required to pay any cash or other consideration for the shares of B&W common stock that will be distributed to you or to surrender or exchange your shares of McDermott common stock in order to receive shares of B&W common stock in the spin-off. The distribution will not affect the number of shares of McDermott common stock that you hold. No approval by McDermott stockholders of the spin-off is required or being sought. You are not being asked for a proxy and you are requested not to send a proxy.

As discussed under “The Spin-Off—Trading of McDermott Common Stock After the Record Date and Prior to the Distribution,” if you sell your shares of McDermott common stock in the “regular way” market after the record date and on or prior to the distribution date, you also will be selling your right to receive shares of B&W common stock in connection with the spin-off. You are encouraged to consult with your financial advisor regarding the specific implications of selling your shares of McDermott common stock on or prior to the spin-off.

There is no current trading market for our common stock. However, we expect that a limited market, commonly known as a “when-issued” trading market, for B&W common stock will begin on or about [            ] and will continue up to and including the spin-off date, and we expect that “regular way” trading of B&W common stock will begin the first day of trading following the spin-off. Subject to the consummation of the spin-off, B&W’s common stock has been approved for listing on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “BWC.”

In reviewing this information statement, you should carefully consider the matters described under the caption “Risk Factors” beginning on page 14.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved these securities or determined if this information statement is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

This information statement does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities.

McDermott first mailed this information statement to its stockholders on or about [                    ], 2010.

The date of this information statement is [                    ], 2010.

This information statement is being furnished solely to provide information to McDermott stockholders who will receive shares of B&W common stock in connection with the spin-off. It is not provided as an inducement or encouragement to buy or sell any securities. This information statement describes our business, the relationship between McDermott and us, and how the spin-off affects McDermott and its stockholders, and provides other information to assist you in evaluating the benefits and risks of holding or disposing of our common stock that you will receive in the spin-off. You should be aware of certain risks relating to the spin-off, our business and ownership of our common stock, which are described under the heading “Risk Factors.” You should not assume that the information contained in this information statement is accurate as of any date other than the date set forth on the front cover.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE SPIN-OFF

Q: What is the spin-off?

A: The spin-off involves McDermott’s pro rata distribution to its stockholders of all the shares of our common stock. Following the spin-off, we will be a separate, publicly traded company, and McDermott will not retain any ownership interest in our company. You do not have to pay any consideration or give up any of your shares of McDermott common stock to receive shares of our common stock in the spin-off.

Q: Why is McDermott separating B&W from McDermott’s business?

A: McDermott’s board and management believe the benefits of the spinoff will include: the improved positioning of each of McDermott and B&W to accelerate growth; a more efficient allocation of capital for each company; the establishment of a distinct publicly traded stock for each company, which may be used as “currencies” to facilitate future acquisitions; the elimination of the risk to the combined businesses posed by recent modifications to the rules under the U.S. Federal Acquisition Regulations (“FAR”) that limit the U.S. Government’s ability to contract with “inverted” companies and their subsidiaries; and sharpened management focus and strategic vision and closer alignment of management incentives with stockholder value creation. Because of the likelihood that McDermott would be considered an “inverted” company under the recent modifications to the FAR (and, therefore, we would be considered a subsidiary of an “inverted” company), those modifications had a significant impact on the McDermott board’s decision to effect the spin-off at this time. In approving the spin-off, McDermott’s board of directors considered the fact that we derive a substantial amount of our revenues and profits from services provided to the U.S. Government, and the fact that any significant restriction on our ability to pursue future U.S. Government contract work consistent with our past operations would have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the combined companies. The independent operation of the two businesses, with B&W as a Delaware corporation, will permit us to continue to serve the needs of our U.S. Government customers without interruption as a result of these rule

modifications, while allowing McDermott the opportunity to pursue its independent business strategy. For more information, see “The Spin-Off—Reasons for the Spin-Off.”

Q: What is being distributed in the spin-off?

A: McDermott will distribute one share of B&W common stock for every [            ] shares of McDermott common stock outstanding as of the record date for the spin-off. Approximately [            ] million shares of our common stock will be distributed in the spin-off, based upon the number of shares of McDermott common stock outstanding on [                    ], 2010. The shares of our common stock to be distributed by McDermott will constitute all of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock. For more information on the shares being distributed in the spin-off, see “Description of Capital Stock.”

Q: What is the record date for the spin-off, and when will the spin-off occur?

A: The record date is [                    ], 2010, and ownership is determined as of 5:00 p.m. New York City time on that date. Shares of B&W common stock will be distributed on [                    ], 2010, which we refer to as the distribution date.

Q: As a holder of shares of McDermott common stock as of the record date, what do I have to do to participate in the spin-off?

A: Nothing. You will receive one share of B&W common stock for every [            ] shares of McDermott common stock held as of the record date and retained through the distribution date. You may also participate in the spin-off if you purchase McDermott common stock in the “regular way” market and retain your McDermott shares through the distribution date. See “The Spin-Off—Trading of McDermott Common Stock After the Record Date and Prior to the Distribution.”

Q: If I sell my shares of McDermott common stock before or on the distribution date, will I still be entitled to receive B&W shares in the spin-off?

A: If you sell your shares of McDermott common stock prior to or on the distribution date, you

1

may also be selling your right to receive shares of B&W common stock. See “The Spin-Off—Trading of McDermott Common Stock After the Record Date and Prior to the Distribution.” You are encouraged to consult with your financial advisor regarding the specific implications of selling your McDermott common stock prior to or on the distribution date.

Q: How will fractional shares be treated in the spin-off?

A: Any fractional share of our common stock otherwise issuable to you will be sold on your behalf, and you will receive a cash payment with respect to that fractional share. For an explanation of how the cash payments for fractional shares will be determined, see “The Spin-Off—Treatment of Fractional Shares.”

Q: Will the spin-off affect the number of shares of McDermott I currently hold?

A: The number of shares of McDermott common stock held by a stockholder will be unchanged. The market value of each McDermott share, however, will decline to reflect the impact of the spin-off.

Q: What are the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the distribution of our shares of common stock to U.S. stockholders?

A: McDermott has obtained a private letter ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) and intends to obtain an opinion of Baker Botts L.L.P., in each case, substantially to the effect that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the spin-off will qualify under Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and certain transactions related to the spin-off will qualify under Sections 355 and/or 368 of the Code. The private letter ruling is, and the tax opinion will be, subject to certain qualifications and limitations.

Assuming the spin-off so qualifies, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, no gain or loss will be recognized by you, and no amount will be included in your taxable income (other than with respect to cash received in lieu of fractional shares), as a result of the spin-off. Certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of the spin-off are described in more detail under “The Spin-Off—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Spin-Off.”

Q: How will I determine the tax basis I will have in the shares of stock I receive in the spin-off?

A: Generally, your aggregate basis in the stock you hold in McDermott and the shares of our common stock received in the spin-off will equal the aggregate basis of McDermott common stock held by you immediately before the spin-off. This aggregate basis should be allocated between your McDermott common stock and our common stock you receive in the spin-off in proportion to the relative fair market value of each immediately after the distribution. You should consult your tax advisor about how this allocation will work in your situation (including a situation where you have purchased McDermott shares at different times or for different amounts) and regarding any particular consequences of the spin-off to you, including the application of state, local, and foreign tax laws. Certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the spin-off are described in more detail under “The Spin-Off—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Spin-Off.”

Q: Is the spin-off tax free to non-U.S. stockholders?

A: Non-U.S. stockholders will generally not be subject to U.S. tax on the spin-off. However, non-U.S. stockholders may be subject to tax on the spin-off in jurisdictions outside the U.S. The foregoing is for general information purposes and does not constitute tax advice. Stockholders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the particular consequences of the spin-off to them.

Q: Will I receive a stock certificate for B&W shares distributed as a result of the spin-off?

A: Registered holders of McDermott common stock who are entitled to participate in the spin-off will receive a book-entry account statement reflecting their ownership of B&W common stock. For additional information, registered stockholders in the United States should contact McDermott’s transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., at 1 (800) 446-2617, or through its website at www.computershare.com. Stockholders from outside the United States may call (781) 575-2723. See “The Spin-Off—When and How You Will Receive Your Shares.”

2

Q: What if I hold my shares through a broker, bank or other nominee?

A: McDermott stockholders who hold their shares through a broker, bank or other nominee will have their brokerage account credited with shares of B&W common stock. For additional information, those stockholders should contact their broker or bank directly.

Q: What if I have stock certificates reflecting my shares of McDermott common stock? Should I send them to the transfer agent or to McDermott?

A: No, you should not send your stock certificates to the transfer agent or to McDermott. You should retain your McDermott stock certificates.

Q: What are the conditions to the spin-off?

A: The spin-off is subject to a number of conditions, including, among others, (1) the continued effectiveness of the private letter ruling received from the IRS on May 21, 2010 and an opinion of counsel, in each case, substantially to the effect that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the spin-off will qualify under Section 355 of the Code and certain transactions related to the spin-off will qualify under Sections 355 and/or 368 of the Code, and (2) the SEC declaring effective the

registration statement of which this information statement forms a part. However, even if all of the conditions have been satisfied, McDermott may amend, modify or abandon any and all terms of the distribution and the related transactions at any time prior to the distribution date. See “The Spin-Off—Spin-Off Conditions and Termination.”

Q: Will B&W incur any debt prior to or at the time of the spin-off?

A: We do not currently anticipate borrowing any amounts under our revolving credit facility prior to or at the time of the spin-off. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

Q: Are there risks to owning shares of B&W common stock?

A: Yes. B&W’s business is subject both to general and specific business risks relating to its operations. In addition, the spin-off involves specific risks, including risks relating to B&W being an independent, publicly traded company. See “Risk Factors.”

Q: Does B&W plan to pay cash dividends?

A: No. We do not currently plan to pay a regular dividend on our common stock following the spin-off. Our credit agreement includes restrictions on our ability to pay dividends. The declaration and amount of future dividends, if any, will be determined by our board of directors and will depend on our financial condition, earnings, capital requirements, financial covenants, industry practice and other factors our board of directors deems relevant. See “Dividend Policy.”

Q: Will the B&W common stock trade on a stock market?

A: Currently, there is no public market for our common stock. Subject to the consummation of the spin-off, our common stock has been approved for listing on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “BWC.” We anticipate that limited trading in shares of B&W common stock will begin on a “when-issued” basis on or shortly before the record date and will continue up to and including through the distribution date and that “regular-way” trading in shares of B&W common stock will begin on the first trading day following the distribution date. The “when-issued” trading market will be a market for shares of B&W common stock that will be distributed to McDermott stockholders on the distribution date. If you owned shares of McDermott common stock at the close of business on the record date, you would be entitled to shares of our common stock distributed pursuant to the spin-off. You may trade this entitlement to shares of B&W common stock, without the shares of McDermott common stock you own, on the “when-issued” market.

We cannot predict the trading prices for our common stock before, on or after the distribution date.

3

Q: What will happen to McDermott stock options, restricted shares, restricted stock units, deferred stock units and performance shares?

A: We currently expect that, subject to approval of the compensation committee of McDermott’s board of directors, equity-based compensation awards will generally be treated as follows:

• Each outstanding option to purchase shares of McDermott common stock that is held by a director, officer or employee of McDermott who will remain a director, officer or employee of McDermott and will not be a director, officer or employee of B&W immediately after the spin-off will be replaced with an adjusted option to purchase McDermott common stock. Each of those adjusted options will reflect adjustments that will be generally intended to preserve the intrinsic value of the original option and the ratio of the exercise price to the fair market value of the stock subject to the option. To the extent the options being adjusted are vested, the adjusted options will also be vested.

• Each outstanding option to purchase shares of McDermott common stock that is held by

a person who is or will be a director of B&W (but not of McDermott) or by a person who is or will be an officer or employee of B&W immediately after the spin-off will be replaced with substitute options to purchase shares of B&W common stock. Each of those substitute options will have terms that will be generally intended to preserve the intrinsic value of the original option and the ratio of the exercise price to the fair market value of the stock subject to the option. To the extent the options being replaced are vested, the substitute options will also be vested.

• Each outstanding option to purchase shares of McDermott common stock that is held by a (1) person who is a director of McDermott and who will remain on the board of directors of McDermott and will also serve on the board of directors of B&W immediately after the spin-off or (2) person who is one of a small number of current officers of B&W who will not serve as officers of B&W after the Distribution Date

(the “Former B&W Officers”) will be replaced with both an adjusted McDermott stock option and a substitute B&W stock option. Both options, when combined, will have terms that will be generally intended to preserve the intrinsic value of the original option and the ratio of the exercise price to the fair market value of the stock subject to the option. All McDermott stock options held by directors of McDermott as of the distribution date will have previously become vested pursuant to their existing terms. Accordingly, all adjusted or substitute options issued to McDermott directors will also be vested.

• The McDermott restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards and deferred stock unit awards of officers or employees of McDermott who will remain officers or employees of McDermott and will not become officers or employees of B&W immediately after the spin-off will be replaced with adjusted McDermott awards, each of which will generally preserve the value of the original award. As of the distribution date, none of McDermott’s directors will hold any restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards or deferred stock unit awards.

• The McDermott restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards and deferred stock unit awards of persons who are or will be officers or employees of B&W immediately after the spin-off will be converted into substitute B&W awards, each of which will generally preserve the value of the original award.

• The McDermott restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards and deferred stock unit awards of the Former B&W Officers will be converted into rights to receive (1) an equivalent number of unrestricted shares of McDermott common stock and (2) [            ] shares of B&W common stock for each such share of McDermott common stock, in accordance with the spin-off distribution.

• The McDermott performance share awards of officers or employees of McDermott who will remain officers or employees of McDermott and will not become officers or

4

employees of B&W immediately after the spin-off will be converted into unvested rights to receive the value of deemed target performance in unrestricted shares of McDermott common stock, with the same vesting terms as the original awards.

• The McDermott performance share awards of persons who are or will be officers or employees of B&W immediately after the spin-off will be converted into unvested rights to receive the value of deemed target performance in unrestricted shares of B&W common stock, with the same vesting terms as the original awards.

• The McDermott performance share awards of the Former B&W officers will be converted into rights to receive the value of deemed target performance in unrestricted shares of McDermott common stock and B&W common stock, in accordance with the spin-off distribution.

For additional information on the treatment of McDermott equity-based compensation awards, see “The Spin-Off—Treatment of Stock-Based Awards.”

Q: What will the relationship between McDermott and B&W be following the spin-off?

A: After the spin-off, McDermott will not own any shares of B&W common stock, and each of McDermott and B&W will be an independent, publicly traded company with its own management team and board of directors. However, in connection with the spin-off, we have entered into a number of agreements with McDermott that will govern the spin-off and allocate responsibilities for obligations arising before and after the spin-off, including, among others, obligations relating to our employees and taxes. See “Relationship with McDermott After the Spin-Off.”

Q: Will I have appraisal rights in connection with the spin-off?

A: No. Holders of shares of McDermott common stock are not entitled to appraisal rights in connection with the spin-off.

Q: Who is the transfer agent for your common stock?

A: Computershare Trust Company, N.A.

250 Royall Street

SUMMARY

The following is a summary of some of the information contained in this information statement. It does not contain all the details concerning us or the spin-off, including information that may be important to you. We urge you to read this entire document carefully, including the risk factors, our historical and pro forma combined financial statements and the notes to those financial statements.

Unless the context requires otherwise or we specifically indicate otherwise, the terms “B&W,” “our company,” “we,” “our,” “ours” and “us” refer to The Babcock & Wilcox Company, a company incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware, and its subsidiaries as of the distribution date; and the term “McDermott” refers to McDermott International, Inc., a publicly traded Panamanian corporation, and its subsidiaries (excluding us and any of our subsidiaries).

We describe in this information statement the business to be held by us after the spin-off as if it were our business for all historical periods described. However, we are an entity that will not have independently conducted any operations before the spin-off. References in this document to our historical assets, liabilities, products, business or activities generally refer to the historical assets, liabilities, products, business or activities of the B&W business as it was conducted as part of McDermott and its subsidiaries before the spin-off. Our historical combined financial results as part of McDermott contained in this information statement may not be indicative of our financial results in the future as an independent company or reflect what our financial results would have been had we been an independent company during the periods presented.

Except as otherwise indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, the information included in this information statement assumes the completion of the separation of B&W from McDermott and the related distribution of our common stock.

Our Company

We are currently a wholly owned subsidiary of McDermott. Following the spin-off, we will be an independent, publicly traded company. McDermott will not retain any ownership interest in our company. Our assets and businesses primarily consist of those that McDermott reports as its Power Generation Systems and Government Operations segments in its consolidated financial statements.

B&W is a leading technology innovator in power generation systems, a specialty manufacturer of nuclear components and a premier service provider in its segments, with an operating history of more than 140 years. We provide a variety of products and services to customers in the power and other steam-using industries, including electric utilities and other power generators, industrial customers in various other industries, and the U.S. Government. We operate in two business segments: Power Generation Systems and Government Operations. Through our Power Generation Systems segment, we design, engineer, manufacture, supply, construct and maintain power generation systems and environmental control systems, primarily for large utility and industrial customers, and we provide related aftermarket parts and services. Through our Government Operations segment, we manufacture nuclear components and provide various services to the U.S. Government, including uranium processing, environmental site restoration services, and management and operating services for various U.S. Government-owned facilities. These services are provided to the U.S. Department of Energy (the “DOE”), including the National Nuclear Security Administration (the “NNSA”), the Office of Nuclear Energy, the Office of Science and the Office of Environmental Management.

We participate in the ownership of a variety of entities with third parties, primarily through corporations, limited liability companies and partnerships, which we refer to as “joint ventures.” Our Government Operations segment manages and operates complex, high-consequence nuclear and national security operations for the DOE and the NNSA through joint ventures. We employ approximately 13,000 people worldwide, not including approximately 10,000 joint venture employees.

For the year ended December 31, 2009, we generated revenues of approximately $2.9 billion and operating income of approximately $270 million. For the year ended December 31, 2008, we generated revenues of approximately $3.4 billion and operating income of approximately $444.5 million.

In connection with the spin-off, we and McDermott are entering into certain agreements, including a master separation agreement, a tax sharing agreement and an employee matters agreement, under which we and McDermott will, among other things, indemnify each other against certain liabilities arising from our respective businesses. See “Relationship with McDermott After the Spin-Off—Agreements Between McDermott and Us.”

Following the spin-off, the parent company in our group of companies will be The Babcock & Wilcox Company, which was incorporated in Delaware as a subsidiary of McDermott. The address of our principal executive offices is The Harris Building, 13024 Ballantyne Corporate Place, Suite 700, Charlotte, North Carolina 28277. Our main telephone number is (704) 625-4900.

Summary of the Spin-Off

The following is a brief summary of the terms of the spin-off. Please see “The Spin-Off” for a more detailed description of the matters described below.

Distributing company McDermott, which is the parent company of B&W. After the distribution, McDermott will not retain any shares of our common stock.

Distributed company B&W, which is currently a wholly owned subsidiary of McDermott. After the distribution, B&W will be an independent, publicly traded company.

Distribution ratio Each holder of McDermott common stock will receive one share of our common stock for every [            ] shares of McDermott common stock held on the record date. Approximately [            ] million shares of our common stock will be distributed in the spin-off, based upon the number of shares of McDermott common stock outstanding on [            ], 2010. The shares of our common stock to be distributed by McDermott, together with the shares of our restricted stock issued to our employees in connection with the spin-off, will constitute all of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock. For more information on the shares being distributed in the spin-off, see “Description of Capital Stock.”

Fractional shares The transfer agent identified below will aggregate fractional shares into whole shares and sell them on behalf of stockholders in the open market at prevailing market prices and distribute the proceeds pro rata to each McDermott stockholder who otherwise would have been entitled to receive a fractional share in the spin-off. You will not be entitled to any interest on the amount of payment made to you in lieu of a fractional share. See “The Spin-Off—Treatment of Fractional Shares.”

Distribution procedures On or about the distribution date, the distribution agent identified below will distribute the shares of our common stock to be distributed by crediting those shares to book-entry accounts established by the transfer agent for persons who were stockholders of McDermott as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the record date. Shares of B&W common stock will be issued only in book-entry form. No paper stock certificates will be issued. You will not be required to make any payment or surrender or exchange your shares of McDermott common stock or take any other action to receive your shares of our common stock. However, as discussed below, if you sell shares of McDermott common stock in the “regular way” market between the record date and the distribution date, you will be selling your right to receive the associated shares of our common stock in the distribution. Registered stockholders will receive additional information from the transfer agent shortly after the distribution date. Beneficial stockholders will receive information from their brokerage firms.

Distribution agent, transfer agent and registrar for our shares of common stock Computershare Trust Company, N.A.

Record date 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on [                    ], 2010.

Distribution date [                    ], 2010.

Trading prior to or on the distribution date It is anticipated that, beginning shortly before the record date, McDermott’s shares will trade in two markets on the New York Stock Exchange, a “regular way” market and an “ex-distribution” market. Investors will be able to purchase McDermott shares without the right to receive shares of our common stock in the “ex-distribution” market for McDermott common stock. Any holder of McDermott common stock who sells McDermott shares in the “regular way” market on or before the distribution date will also be selling the right to receive shares of our common stock in the spin-off. You are encouraged to consult with your financial advisor regarding the specific implications of selling McDermott common stock prior to or on the distribution date.

Assets and liabilities of the distributed company We and McDermott have entered into a master separation agreement that contains the key provisions relating to the separation of our business from McDermott and the distribution of our shares of common stock. The master separation agreement identifies the assets to be transferred, liabilities to be assumed and contracts to be assigned either to us by McDermott or by us to McDermott in the spin-off and describe when and how these transfers, assumptions and assignments will occur. See “Relationship with McDermott After the Spin-Off—Agreements Between McDermott and Us—Master Separation Agreement.”

Relationship with McDermott after the spin-off We and McDermott have entered into agreements to define various continuing relationships between McDermott and us in various contexts. In particular, we have entered into transition services agreements under which we and McDermott will provide each other certain transition services on an interim basis. We and a subsidiary of McDermott have also entered into an agreement providing for the sharing of taxes incurred before and after the distribution, various indemnification rights with respect to tax matters and restrictions to preserve the tax-free status of the distribution to McDermott. See “Relationship with McDermott After the Spin-Off —Agreements Between McDermott and Us.”

Indemnities Under the terms of the tax sharing agreement, we will generally be responsible for any taxes imposed on us or McDermott and its subsidiaries in the event that certain transactions related to the

9

spin-off were to fail to qualify for tax-free treatment. However, if these transactions were to fail to qualify for tax-free treatment because of actions or failures to act by McDermott or its subsidiaries, a subsidiary of McDermott would be responsible for all such taxes. Please see “The Spin-Off—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Spin-Off.” Please see also “Relationship with McDermott After the Spin-Off—Agreements Between McDermott and Us—Tax Sharing Agreement.” Under the master separation agreement, we will also indemnify McDermott and its remaining subsidiaries against various claims and liabilities relating to the past operation of our business. Please see “Relationship with McDermott After the Spin-Off—Agreements Between McDermott and Us—Master Separation Agreement.”

U.S. federal income tax consequences McDermott has obtained a private letter ruling from the IRS and expects to obtain an opinion of counsel, in each case, substantially to the effect that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the spin-off will qualify under Section 355 of the Code and certain transactions related to the spin-off will qualify under Sections 355 and/or 368 of the Code. Certain United States federal income tax consequences of the spin-off are described in more detail under “The Spin-Off—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Spin-Off.”

Conditions to the spin-off We expect that the spin-off will be effective on [                    ], 2010, provided that the conditions set forth under the caption “The Spin-Off—Spin-Off Conditions and Termination” have been satisfied in McDermott’s sole and absolute discretion. However, even if all of the conditions have been satisfied, McDermott may amend, modify or abandon any and all terms of the distribution and the related transactions at any time prior to the distribution date.

Reasons for the spin-off McDermott’s board and management believe the benefits of the spinoff will include: the improved positioning of each of McDermott and B&W to accelerate growth; a more efficient allocation of capital for each company; the establishment of a distinct publicly traded stock for each company, which may be used as “currencies” to facilitate future acquisitions; the elimination of the risk to the combined businesses posed by recent modifications to the rules under the FAR that limit the U.S. Government’s ability to contract with “inverted” companies and their subsidiaries; and sharpened management focus and strategic vision and closer alignment of management incentives with stockholder value creation. Because of the likelihood that McDermott would be considered an “inverted” company under the recent modifications to the FAR (and, therefore, we would be considered a subsidiary of an “inverted” company), those modifications had a significant impact on the McDermott board’s decision to effect the spin-off at this time. In approving the spin-off, McDermott’s board of directors considered the fact that we derive a substantial amount of our revenues and profits from services

10

provided to the U.S. Government, and the fact that any significant restriction on our ability to pursue future U.S. Government contract work consistent with our past operations would have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the combined companies. The independent operation of the two businesses, with B&W as a Delaware corporation, will permit us to continue to serve the needs of our U.S. Government customers without interruption as a result of these rule modifications, while allowing McDermott the opportunity to pursue its independent business strategy. For more information, see “The Spin-Off—Reasons for the Spin-Off.”

Stock exchange listing Currently there is no public market for our common stock. Our common stock has been approved for listing on the New York Stock Exchange, or the NYSE, under the symbol “BWC.” We anticipate that trading will commence on a “when-issued” basis on or shortly before the record date. “When-issued” trading refers to a transaction made conditionally because the security has been authorized but not yet issued. On the first trading day following the distribution of our shares of common stock in the spin-off, “when-issued” trading in respect of our common stock will end and “regular way” trading will begin. “Regular way” trading refers to trading after a security has been issued and typically involves a transaction that settles on the third full business day following the date of the transaction. We cannot predict the trading prices for our common stock following the spin-off. In addition, McDermott common stock will remain outstanding and will continue to trade on the NYSE.

Incurrence of debt Our credit agreement provides a revolving credit facility to satisfy our anticipated working capital requirements and other financing needs. We anticipate that, immediately prior to the distribution date, we will have combined cash and equivalents and available liquidity under the revolving credit facility totaling at least $[            ] million. The credit agreement includes customary covenants that, among other things, will require us to maintain certain financial ratios and restrict our ability to incur additional indebtedness. To the extent permitted, we may also incur additional indebtedness from time to time for general corporate purposes, including working capital requirements, capital expenditures and future acquisitions. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources.” See also “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Our Industry and Our Business—Our debt obligations could restrict our operations.”

Risk factors You should review the risks relating to the spin-off, our industry and our business and ownership of our common stock described in “Risk Factors.”

SUMMARY HISTORICAL AND PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The following table presents our summary historical combined financial information and unaudited pro forma combined financial information. We derived the historical combined statement of operations information for each of the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, and the balance sheet information as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, from our audited combined financial statements included in this information statement. We derived the historical condensed combined statement of operations information for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, and the balance sheet information as of March 31, 2010 and 2009, from our unaudited condensed combined financial statements included in this information statement. We derived the historical combined statement of operations information for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the balance sheet information as of December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, from our unaudited combined financial statements not included in this information statement. The summary historical combined financial information reflects the effects of certain assets to be transferred to, and liabilities to be assumed by, McDermott in connection with the spin-off, and does not reflect the effects of certain liabilities to be assumed by B&W in connection with the spin-off. See “Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Data.”

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information set forth below is based on available information and assumptions that we believe are factually supportable. The information has been prepared on a combined basis using historical results of operations and bases of assets and liabilities of The Babcock & Wilcox Operations of McDermott International, Inc. and includes intercompany allocations of expenses. The costs to operate our business as an independent public entity may exceed the historical allocations of expenses related to areas that include, but are not limited to, litigation and other legal matters, compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and other corporate governance matters, insurance and claims management and the related cost of insurance, as well as general overall purchasing power. These possible increased costs are not included in the unaudited pro forma combined financial information, as their impact on our results of operations cannot be reasonably estimated. The unaudited pro forma combined financial information also does not reflect any significant changes that may occur after the spin-off in our financing plans and cost structure, including expenditures related to our growth initiatives.

The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations information for the year ended December 31, 2009 and the three months ended March 31, 2010 includes adjustments to give effect to:

• the deemed transfer by B&W to McDermott of certain assets that will not be held by B&W;

• the deemed assumption by B&W of certain liabilities that were previously liabilities of McDermott or other subsidiaries of McDermott; and

• the deemed assumption by McDermott or other subsidiaries of McDermott of certain liabilities that were previously liabilities of B&W;

in each case as if such transfers occurred on January 1, 2009. The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet information as of March 31, 2010 includes adjustments to give effect to these deemed transactions as if they had occurred on March 31, 2010.

You should read the summary historical and pro forma combined financial information in conjunction with our combined financial statements and the accompanying notes, “Selected Historical Combined Financial Data,” “Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Data” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” included in this information statement. The financial information presented below is not necessarily indicative of our future performance or what our financial position and results of operations would have been had we operated as an independent public company during the periods presented or, in the case of the unaudited pro forma information, had the transactions reflected in the pro forma adjustments actually occurred as of the dates assumed.

(1) Results for the year ended December 31, 2006 include approximately ten months for the principal operating subsidiaries of our Power Generation Systems segment, which were included in our results effective February 22, 2006. We did not include the results of operations of these entities in our financial statements from February 22, 2000 through February 22, 2006 due to the Chapter 11 proceedings involving several of our subsidiaries. On February 22, 2000, Babcock & Wilcox Power Generation Group, Inc. (formerly known as The Babcock & Wilcox Company) (“B&W PGG”) and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors”) filed a voluntary bankruptcy petition in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of New Orleans to reorganize under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors took this action as a means to determine and comprehensively resolve their asbestos liability as a result of asbestos-containing boilers and other products the Debtors sold, installed or serviced in prior decades. On February 22, 2000, the Debtors’ operations became subject to the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court. Because we lost control of the Debtors while their operations were subject to the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court, consistent with the requirements of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810-10-15-10 (a), (1) (ii), we deconsolidated the results of the Debtors in our financial statements on February 22, 2000 and presented our investment in the Debtors on the cost basis of accounting. Subsequent to February 22, 2000, we wrote this investment down to zero as impaired. On February 22, 2006, the Debtors emerged from bankruptcy. The results of the Debtors were reconsolidated into our financial statements effective February 22, 2006 and for all periods after such date. We accounted for this reconsolidation in a manner similar to the acquisition of the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary.

RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider each of the following risks and all of the other information contained in this information statement. Some of these risks relate principally to our spin-off from McDermott, while others relate principally to our business and the industry in which we operate or to the securities markets generally and ownership of our common stock.

If any of these risks develop into actual events, our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks, and, as a result, the trading price of our common stock could decline.

Risks Relating to Our Industry and Our Business

We derive substantial revenues from electric power generating companies and other steam-using industries, with demand for our products and services depending on capital expenditures in these historically cyclical industries. Additionally, recent legislative and regulatory developments relating to greenhouse gas emissions are impacting plans for new coal-fired power plants within the United States.

The demand for power generation products and services depends primarily on the capital expenditures of electric power generating companies, paper companies and other steam-using industries. These capital expenditures are influenced by such factors as:

• prices for electricity, along with the cost of production and distribution;

• prices for natural resources such as coal and natural gas;

• demand for electricity, paper and other end products of steam-generating facilities;

• availability of other sources of electricity, paper or other end products;

• requirements of environmental legislation and regulation, including potential requirements applicable to carbon dioxide emissions;

• levels of capacity utilization at operating power plants, paper mills and other steam-using facilities;

• requirements for maintenance and upkeep at operating power plants and paper mills to combat the accumulated effects of wear and tear;

• ability of electric generating companies and other steam users to raise capital; and

• total costs of electricity production using boilers compared to total costs using gas turbines and other alternative forms of generation.

A material decline in capital expenditures by electric power generating companies, paper companies and other steam-using industries over a sustained period of time could materially and adversely affect the demand for our power generation products and services and, therefore, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

U.S. coal-fired power plants have been scrutinized by environmental groups and government regulators over the emissions of potentially harmful pollutants. In addition to recent legislation at the state level, the U.S. Congress is considering legislation that would limit greenhouse gas emissions, including carbon dioxide. In April 2007, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) has some authority to regulate greenhouse gases under the Clean Air Act. In 2009, the EPA published a final rule requiring the reporting of greenhouse gas emissions from specified large sources in the United States beginning in 2011 for emissions occurring in 2010 and a final rule finding that current and projected concentrations of six key greenhouse gases in the atmosphere threaten public health and welfare of current and future generations. In addition, in 2009, the EPA issued a “Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gases” final rule. As a result of these

14

and other developments, some plans for coal-fired power plants have been cancelled or suspended. We cannot predict the ultimate impact that legislative and regulatory developments in this area will have on the overall demand for our products and services.

We rely on U.S. Government contracts for a large percentage of our revenue, and some of those contracts are subject to continued appropriations by Congress and may be terminated or delayed if future funding is not made available. In addition, the U.S. Government may not renew our existing contracts.

For the year ended December 31, 2009, we relied on U.S. Government contracts for approximately 33% of our revenue. Government contracts are subject to various uncertainties, restrictions and regulations, including oversight audits, which could result in withholding or delaying of payments to us. In addition, some of our large, multi-year contracts with the U.S. Government are subject to annual funding determinations and the continuing availability of Congressional appropriations. Although multi-year operations may be planned in connection with major procurements, Congress generally appropriates funds on a fiscal-year basis even though a program may continue for several years. Consequently, programs often are only partially funded initially, and additional funds are committed only as Congress makes further appropriations. As a result, we are subject to ongoing uncertainties associated with U.S. Government budget restraints and other factors affecting government funding.

The U.S. Government typically can terminate or modify any of its contracts with us either for its convenience or if we default by failing to perform under the terms of the applicable contract. A termination arising out of our default could expose us to liability and have an adverse effect on our ability to compete for future contracts and orders. If any of our contracts reflected in backlog are terminated by the U.S. Government, our backlog would be reduced by the expected value of the remaining work under such contracts. In addition, on those contracts for which we are teamed with others and are not the prime contractor, the U.S. Government could terminate a prime contract under which we are a subcontractor, irrespective of the quality of our products and services as a subcontractor. The reduction or termination of funding, or changes in the timing of funding, for a U.S. Government program in which we provide products or services would result in a reduction or loss of anticipated future revenues attributable to that program and could have a negative impact on our results of operations.

We also have several significant contracts with the U.S. Government that are subject to periodic renewal and rebidding through a competitive process. If the U.S. Government fails to renew these contracts, our results of operations and cash flows would be adversely affected.

As a result of these and other factors, the termination of one or more of our significant government contracts, our suspension from government contract work, the failure of the U.S. Government to renew our existing contracts or the disallowance of the payment of our contract costs could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Demand for our products and services is vulnerable to economic downturns and reductions in private sector and government spending.

Demand for our products and services has been, and we expect that demand will continue to be, subject to significant fluctuations due to a variety of factors beyond our control, including economic and industry conditions. The global economic downturn that began in 2008 continued throughout 2009 and into 2010. Since 2008, concerns over inflation, energy costs, geopolitical issues, the availability and cost of credit and other market factors have contributed to increased volatility and diminished expectations for the global economy and expectations of slower global economic growth for the foreseeable future. Volatile oil prices, low business and consumer confidence and high unemployment have accompanied the global economic downturn.

As a result of the ongoing economic downturn, some of our customers have delayed, curtailed or cancelled proposed and existing projects and may continue to do so, thus decreasing the overall demand for our products and services and adversely affecting our results of operations. We have experienced and expect to continue to

15

experience delays or deferrals of proposed projects. For example, for the year ended December 31, 2009, our Power Generation Systems segment experienced a decline in revenues compared to 2008 and an overall slowdown in project awards. In light of current macroeconomic conditions, revenues from our Power Generation Systems segment may continue to decline in 2010.

In addition, our Government Operations segment depends on U.S. Government funding, particularly funding levels at the DOE. Significant changes in the level of funding (for example, the annual budget of the DOE) or specifically mandated levels for individual programs that are important to our business could have an unfavorable impact on us. In addition, if Congress does not pass annual appropriations bills in a timely fashion, spending delays under our U.S. Government contracts may result. Any reduction in the level of U.S. Government funding, particularly at the DOE, may result in, among other things, a reduction in the number and scope of projects put out for bid by the U.S. Government or the curtailment of existing U.S. Government programs, either of which may result in a reduction in the number of contract award opportunities available to us, a reduction of activities at DOE sites and an increase in costs, including the costs of obtaining contract awards.

In addition, our customers may find it more difficult to raise capital in the future due to limitations on the availability of credit, increases in interest rates and other factors affecting the federal, municipal and corporate credit markets. Also, our customers may demand more favorable pricing terms and find it increasingly difficult to timely pay invoices for our services, which would impact our future cash flows and liquidity. Inflation or significant changes in interest rates could reduce the demand for our products and services. Any inability to timely collect our invoices may lead to an increase in our accounts receivables and potentially to increased write-offs of uncollectible invoices. If the economy remains weak or uncertain, or customer spending declines further, then our backlog, revenues, net income and overall financial condition could deteriorate.

Our backlog is subject to unexpected adjustments and cancellations.

There can be no assurance that the revenues projected in our backlog will be realized or, if realized, will result in profits. Because of project cancellations or changes in project scope and schedule, we cannot predict with certainty when or if backlog will be performed. In addition, even where a project proceeds as scheduled, it is possible that contracted parties may default and fail to pay amounts owed to us or poor project performance could increase the cost associated with a project. Delays, suspensions, cancellations, payment defaults, scope changes and poor project execution could materially reduce or eliminate the revenues and profits that we actually realize from projects in backlog.

Reductions in our backlog due to cancellation or modification by a customer or for other reasons may adversely affect, potentially to a material extent, the revenues and earnings we actually receive from contracts included in our backlog. Many of the contracts in our backlog provide for cancellation fees in the event customers cancel projects. These cancellation fees usually provide for reimbursement of our out-of-pocket costs, revenues for work performed prior to cancellation and a varying percentage of the profits we would have realized had the contract been completed. However, we typically have no contractual right upon cancellation to the total revenues reflected in our backlog. Projects may remain in our backlog for extended periods of time. If we experience significant project terminations, suspensions or scope adjustments to contracts reflected in our backlog, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows may be adversely impacted.

We are subject to risks associated with contractual pricing in our industries, including the risk that, if our actual costs exceed the costs we estimate on our fixed-price contracts, our profitability will decline, and we may suffer losses.

We are engaged in highly competitive industries, and we have priced a substantial number of our projects on a fixed-price basis. Our actual costs could exceed our projections. We attempt to cover the increased costs of anticipated changes in labor, material and service costs of long-term contracts, either through estimates of cost increases, which are reflected in the original contract price, or through price escalation clauses. Despite these

16

attempts, however, the cost and gross profit we realize on a fixed-price contract could vary materially from the estimated amounts because of supplier, contractor and subcontractor performance, changes in job conditions, variations in labor and equipment productivity and increases in the cost of labor and raw materials, particularly steel, over the term of the contract. These variations and the risks generally inherent in our industries may result in actual revenues or costs being different from those we originally estimated and may result in reduced profitability or losses on projects. Some of these risks include:

• difficulties encountered on our large-scale projects related to the procurement of materials or due to schedule disruptions, equipment performance failures or other factors that may result in additional costs to us, reductions in revenue, claims or disputes;

• our inability to obtain compensation for additional work we perform or expenses we incur as a result of customer change orders or our customers providing deficient design or engineering information or equipment or materials;

• requirements to pay liquidated damages upon our failure to meet schedule or performance requirements of our contracts; and

• difficulties in engaging third-party subcontractors, equipment manufacturers or materials suppliers or failures by third-party subcontractors, equipment manufacturers or materials suppliers to perform could result in project delays and cause us to incur additional costs.

Our use of percentage-of-completion method of accounting could result in volatility in our results of operations.

We recognize revenues and profits under our long-term contracts on a percentage-of-completion basis. Accordingly, we review contract price and cost estimates periodically as the work progresses and reflect adjustments proportionate to the percentage of completion in income in the period when we revise those estimates. To the extent these adjustments result in a reduction or an elimination of previously reported profits with respect to a project, we would recognize a charge against current earnings, which could be material. Our current estimates of our contract costs and the profitability of our long-term projects, although reasonably reliable when made, could change as a result of the uncertainties associated with these types of contracts, and if adjustments to overall contract costs are significant, the reductions or reversals of previously recorded revenue and profits could be material in future periods.

Maintaining adequate bonding and letter of credit capacity is necessary for us to successfully bid on and win various contracts.

In line with industry practice, we are often required to post standby letters of credit and surety bonds to support contractual obligations to customers as well as other obligations. These letters of credit and bonds generally indemnify customers should we fail to perform our obligations under the applicable contracts. If a letter of credit or bond is required for a particular project and we are unable to obtain it due to insufficient liquidity or other reasons, we will not be able to pursue that project. We utilize bonding facilities, but, as is typically the case, the issuance of bonds under each of those facilities is at the surety’s sole discretion. In addition, we have limited capacity under our credit facility for letters of credit. Moreover, due to events that affect the insurance and bonding and credit markets generally, bonding and letters of credit may be more difficult to obtain in the future or may only be available at significant additional cost. There can be no assurance that letters of credit or bonds will continue to be available to us on reasonable terms, particularly given our pro forma tangible net worth as of March 31, 2010. Our inability to obtain adequate letters of credit and bonding and, as a result, to bid on new work could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. As of March 31, 2010, we had $248.4 million in letters of credit issued under our credit facilities and $112.9 million in surety bonds outstanding.

17

Volatility and uncertainty of the credit markets may negatively impact our ability to obtain financing.

We intend to finance our existing operations and initiatives with cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operations, and potential borrowings, including under our revolving credit facility. In the past several years, the credit markets and the financial services industry have been experiencing a period of unprecedented turmoil and upheaval characterized by the bankruptcy, failure, collapse or sale of various financial institutions and an unprecedented level of intervention from the U.S. federal government. These circumstances and events have led to a scarcity of credit, tighter lending standards and higher interest rates on loans. While we cannot predict the ultimate outcome on us, continued turmoil in the credit markets could have a material adverse effect on us. If adverse national and international economic conditions continue or deteriorate further, it is possible that we may not be able to fully draw upon our revolving credit facility and we may not be able to obtain financing on favorable terms.

Our debt obligations could restrict our operations.

The terms of our credit agreement impose various restrictions and covenants on us that could have adverse consequences, including:

• limiting our ability to react to changing economic, regulatory and industry conditions;

• limiting our ability to compete and our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry;

• limiting our ability to pay dividends to our stockholders; and

• limiting our ability to borrow additional funds.

Our business strategy includes acquisitions to support our growth. Acquisitions of other businesses can create certain risks and uncertainties.

We intend to pursue growth through the acquisition of businesses or assets that we believe will enable us to strengthen our existing businesses and expand into new industries and regions. We may be unable to continue this growth strategy if we cannot identify suitable businesses or assets, reach agreement on potential strategic acquisitions on acceptable terms or for other reasons. Moreover, business acquisitions involve certain risks, including:

• difficulties relating to the assimilation of personnel, services and systems of an acquired business and the assimilation of marketing and other operational capabilities;

• challenges resulting from unanticipated changes in customer relationships subsequent to acquisition;

• additional financial and accounting challenges and complexities in areas such as tax planning, treasury management, financial reporting and internal controls;

• assumption of liabilities of an acquired business, including liabilities that were unknown at the time the acquisition transaction was negotiated;

• diversion of management’s attention from day-to-day operations;

• failure to realize anticipated benefits, such as cost savings and revenue enhancements;

• potentially substantial transaction costs associated with business combinations; and

• potential impairment of goodwill or other intangible assets resulting from the overpayment for an acquisition.

Acquisitions may be funded by the issuance of additional equity or debt financing, which may not be available on attractive terms. Moreover, to the extent an acquisition transaction financed by non-equity consideration results in goodwill, it will reduce our tangible net worth, which might have an adverse effect on potential credit and bonding capacity.

18

Additionally, an acquisition may bring us into businesses we have not previously conducted and expose us to additional business risks that are different than those we have historically experienced.

Our business strategy also includes development and commercialization of new technologies to support our growth, which requires significant investment and involves various risks and uncertainties.

Our future growth will depend on our ability to continue to innovate by developing and commercializing new product and service offerings. Investments in new technologies involve varying degrees of uncertainties and risk. Commercial success depends on many factors, including the levels of innovation, the development costs and the availability of capital resources to fund those costs, the levels of competition from others developing similar or other competing technologies, our ability to obtain or maintain government permits or certifications, the effectiveness of production, distribution and marketing efforts, and the costs to customers to deploy and provide support for the new technologies. We may not achieve significant revenue from new product and service investments for a number of years, if at all. Moreover, new products and services may not be profitable, and, even if they are profitable, our operating margins from new products and services may not be as high as the margins we have experienced historically. In addition, new technologies may not be patentable and, as a result, we may face increased competition.

Among our opportunities involving new technologies, we are developing the B&W mPower™ reactor, a small modular reactor designed with the flexibility to provide between 125 MW to 1,000 MW of electrical power generation (in increments of 125 MW), and the capability to operate for a four- to five-year cycle without refueling. The development, general and administrative and capital costs to develop and commercialize this technology will require a substantial amount of investment over a period of years. We expect that funding will be authorized at major milestones based on measurable and demonstrated progress, and the funding requirements may vary significantly from period to period. We intend to continue with our plan to seek third-party funding and/or participation to pursue the development and commercialization of this technology; however, we can provide no assurance that such third-party funding or participation will be provided. Commercialization of this technology will require certification from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (“NRC”), which we intend to seek in time to begin deploying this technology as early as 2020. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in addressing all the technological challenges to developing and commercializing this technology or in obtaining the required NRC certification. Furthermore, while there currently are various small reactor competitors with limited capability, the potential exists for other competitors to emerge with competing technologies, in some cases with funding readily available, and we can provide no assurance that those competitors will not develop and commercialize similar or superior technologies sooner than we can or at a significant cost or price advantage.

Our operations are subject to operating risks, which could expose us to potentially significant professional liability, product liability, warranty and other claims. Our insurance coverage may be inadequate to cover all of our significant risks or our insurers may deny coverage of material losses we incur, which could adversely affect our profitability and overall financial condition.

We engineer, construct and perform services in large industrial facilities where accidents or system failures can have significant consequences. Risks inherent in our operations include:

• accidents resulting in injury or the loss of life or property;

• environmental or toxic tort claims, including delayed manifestation claims for personal injury or loss of life;

• pollution or other environmental mishaps;

• adverse weather conditions;

• mechanical failures;

• property losses;

• business interruption due to political action in foreign countries or other reasons; and

• labor stoppages.

19

Any accident or failure at a site where we have provided products or services could result in significant professional liability, product liability, warranty and other claims against us, regardless of whether our products or services caused the incident. We have been, and in the future we may be, named as defendants in lawsuits asserting large claims as a result of litigation arising from events such as those listed above.

We endeavor to identify and obtain in established markets insurance agreements to cover significant risks and liabilities. Insurance against some of the risks inherent in our operations is either unavailable or available only at rates or on terms that we consider uneconomical. Also, catastrophic events customarily result in decreased coverage limits, more limited coverage, additional exclusions in coverage, increased premium costs and increased deductibles and self-insured retentions. Risks that we have frequently found difficult to cost-effectively insure against include, but are not limited to, business interruption, property losses from wind, flood and earthquake events, nuclear hazards, war and confiscation or seizure of property in some areas of the world, pollution liability, liabilities related to occupational health exposures (including asbestos), professional liability/errors and omissions coverage, the failure, misuse or unavailability of our information systems, the failure of security measures designed to protect our information systems, and liability related to risk of loss of our work in progress and customer-owned materials in our care, custody and control. Depending on competitive conditions and other factors, we endeavor to obtain contractual protection against certain uninsured risks from our customers. When obtained, such contractual indemnification protection may not be as broad as we desire or may not be supported by adequate insurance maintained by the customer. Such insurance or contractual indemnity protection may not be sufficient or effective under all circumstances or against all hazards to which we may be subject. A successful claim for which we are not insured or for which we are underinsured could have a material adverse effect on us. Additionally, disputes with insurance carriers over coverage may affect the timing of cash flows and, if litigation with the carrier becomes necessary, an outcome unfavorable to us may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

Through two limited liability companies, we are also involved in management and operating activities for the U.S. Government at the Y-12 National Security Complex and Pantex Plant facilities. These activities involve, among other things, handling nuclear devices and their components from the aging stockpile of the U.S. Government. Most insurable liabilities arising from these sites are not protected in our corporate insurance program. Instead, we rely on government contractual agreements, some insurance purchased specifically for the sites and certain specialized self-insurance programs funded by the U.S. Government. The U.S. Government has historically fulfilled its contractual agreement to reimburse for insurable claims, and we expect it to continue this process during our administration of these two facilities. However, it should be noted that, in most situations, the U.S. Government is contractually obligated to pay subject to the availability of authorized government funds. The reimbursement obligation of the U.S. Government is also conditional, and provisions of the relevant contract or applicable law may preclude reimbursement.

In January 2010, we received notice from our existing nuclear liability underwriter that it intended to cancel our nuclear liability insurance, effective as of May 10, 2010, for our licensed facility in Erwin, Tennessee, which we acquired in December 2008 through our acquisition of Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc. The underwriter stated that the reason for the cancellation was a material change in risk that increased the risk of loss, and that this assessment was based on new information regarding the commercial development line at the facility. After the occurrence of the two incidents at the facility described under “Our nuclear operations subject us to various environmental, regulatory, financial and other risks” and prior to suspension of operations at the facility, the underwriter conducted a special inspection of the facility. We believe the underwriter’s decision to cancel the policy was based on its assessment of insured risk following that inspection. The cancellation occurred after the suspension of operations at the facility. We have obtained replacement coverage from a new nuclear insurance underwriter to cover the facility, which became effective as of April 1, 2010. There can be no assurance, however, that any of our insurance coverages will be renewable upon the expiration of the coverage period or that future coverage will be available at preferred or required limits, which could increase our overall risk exposure for certain commercial activities at the Erwin facility.

We have a captive insurance company subsidiary which provides us with various insurance coverages. Claims as a result of our operations could adversely impact the ability of our captive insurance company subsidiary to respond to all claims presented.

20

Additionally, upon the February 22, 2006 effectiveness of the settlement relating to the Chapter 11 proceedings involving several of our subsidiaries, most of our subsidiaries contributed substantial insurance rights providing coverage for, among other things, asbestos and other personal injury claims, to an asbestos personal injury trust. With the contribution of these insurance rights to the asbestos personal injury trust, we may have underinsured or uninsured exposure for non-derivative asbestos claims or other personal injury or other claims that would have been insured under these coverages had the insurance rights not been contributed to the asbestos personal injury trust.

Our nuclear operations subject us to various environmental, regulatory, financial and other risks.

Our operations in designing, engineering, manufacturing, supplying, constructing and maintaining nuclear fuel and nuclear power equipment and components subject us to various risks, including:

• potential liabilities relating to harmful effects on the environment and human health resulting from nuclear operations and the storage, handling and disposal of radioactive materials;

• unplanned expenditures relating to maintenance, operation, security, upgrades and repairs required by the NRC;

• limitations on the amounts and types of insurance commercially available to cover losses that might arise in connection with nuclear operations; and

• potential liabilities arising out of a nuclear incident, whether or not it is within our control.

Our nuclear operations are subject to various safety-related requirements imposed by the U.S. Government, the DOE and the NRC. In the event of non-compliance, these agencies might increase regulatory oversight, impose fines or shut down our operations, depending upon the assessment of the severity of the situation. Revised security and safety requirements promulgated by these agencies could necessitate substantial capital and other expenditures.

In December 2009, our subsidiary Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc., which we acquired in December 2008, implemented a suspension of some operations at its Erwin, Tennessee manufacturing facility while implementing organizational, facility and management changes to enhance safety controls and processes. We suspended the operations in consultation with the NRC following the occurrence of two separate incidents that we reported to the NRC in October and November 2009. The October 2009 incident involved the generation of excessive heat and a hazardous gas at a specialized cleaning station. The incident was caused by the processing of a small amount of uranium-aluminum material in nitric acid. This incident resulted in some damage to piping, but did not result in any injuries to personnel or offsite releases of chemical or radioactive material. The November 2009 incident involved a fire in a glovebox enclosure. The incident was caused by a reaction between fluorine gas in a cylinder of uranium and the fiberglass backing of the teflon lining of a vent hose attached to the cylinder within the glovebox enclosure. This incident resulted in damage to a hose and a faceplate within the glove box enclosure, but did not result in any injuries to personnel or offsite releases of chemical or radioactive material. Inspections conducted separately by the NRC, our then existing nuclear liability underwriter and us revealed specific modifications necessary to improve Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc.’s overall safety performance. Although the NRC did not issue any directive or order to us to suspend these operations, we believe the NRC likely would have done so had we not voluntarily suspended the operations. Although we were already in the process of implementing safety, cultural and procedural improvements at Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc., we have refined and accelerated those changes and have developed other specific enhancements in consultation with the NRC, as confirmed in the NRC’s January 7, 2010 confirmatory action letter to Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc.

The suspended operations include production operations, the commercial development line and the highly enriched uranium down-blending facility. These operations are in the process of being brought back on line through a phased restart, which we commenced in March 2010 following completion of a third-party review and NRC review of the modifications that were implemented. The production operations are now fully operational. We began bringing the highly enriched uranium down-blending facility back on line, through a phased restart,

21

in May 2010, and we expect that the facility will be fully operational in June 2010. We expect to bring the commercial development line back on line by the end of January 2011. There can be no assurance that we will not have to suspend our operations in the future to implement additional changes to enhance our safety controls and processes in order to comply with applicable laws and regulations.

Limitations or modifications to indemnification regulations of the U.S. or foreign countries could adversely affect our business.

The Price-Anderson Act partially indemnifies the nuclear industry against liability arising from nuclear incidents in the United States, while ensuring compensation for the general public. The Price-Anderson Act comprehensively regulates the manufacture, use and storage of radioactive materials, while promoting the nuclear industry by offering broad indemnification to commercial nuclear power plant operators and DOE contractors. Because we provide nuclear fabrication and other services to the DOE relating to its nuclear devices facilities and other programs and the nuclear power industry in the ongoing maintenance and modifications of its nuclear power plants, including the manufacture of equipment and other components for use in such nuclear power plants, we may be entitled to some of the indemnification protections under the Price-Anderson Act against liability arising from nuclear incidents in the United States. The indemnification authority under the Price-Anderson Act was extended through December 2025 by the Energy Policy Act of 2005. We also provide nuclear fabrication and other services to the nuclear power industry in Canada. Canada’s Nuclear Liability Act generally conforms to international conventions and is conceptually similar to the Price-Anderson Act in the United States. Accordingly, indemnification protections and the possibility of exclusions under Canada’s Nuclear Liability Act are similar to those under the Price-Anderson Act in the United States.

The Price-Anderson Act’s indemnification provisions may not apply to all liabilities that we might incur while performing services as a contractor for the DOE and the nuclear power industry. If an incident or evacuation is not covered under the Price-Anderson Act’s indemnification provisions, we could be held liable for damages, regardless of fault, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. In connection with the international transportation of toxic, hazardous and radioactive materials, it is possible for a claim to be asserted which may not fall within the indemnification provided by the Price-Anderson Act. If such indemnification authority is not applicable in the future, our business could be adversely affected if the owners and operators of nuclear power plants fail to retain our services in the absence of commercially adequate insurance and indemnification.

Moreover, because we manufacture nuclear components for the U.S. Government’s defense program, we may be entitled to some of the indemnification protections afforded by Public Law 85-804 for certain of our nuclear operations risks. Public Law 85-804 authorizes certain agencies of the U.S. Government, such as the DOE and the U.S. Department of Defense, to indemnify their contractors against unusually hazardous or nuclear risks when such action would facilitate the national defense. However, because the indemnification protections afforded by Public Law 85-804 are granted on a discretionary basis, situations could arise where the U.S. Government elects not to offer such protections. In such situations, our business could be adversely affected by either our inability to obtain commercially adequate insurance or indemnification or our refusal to pursue such operations in the absence of such protections.

We are subject to government regulations that may adversely affect our future operations.

Many aspects of our operations and properties are affected by political developments and are subject to both domestic and foreign governmental regulations, including those relating to:

• constructing and manufacturing power generation products and nuclear components;

• currency conversions and repatriation;

• clean air and other environmental protection legislation;

22

• taxation of foreign earnings and earnings of expatriate personnel; and

• use of local employees and suppliers.

In addition, a substantial portion of the demand for our products and services is from electric power generating companies and other steam-using customers. The demand for power generation products and services can be influenced by state and federal governmental legislation setting requirements for utilities related to operations, emissions and environmental impacts. The legislative process is unpredictable and includes a platform that continuously seeks to increase the restrictions on power producers. Potential legislation limiting emissions from power plants, including carbon dioxide, could affect our markets and the demand for our products and services related to power generation.

We cannot determine the extent to which our future operations and earnings may be affected by new legislation, new regulations or changes in existing regulations.

Our businesses require us to obtain, and to comply with, national, state and local government permits and approvals.

Our businesses are required to obtain, and to comply with, national, state and local government permits and approvals. Any of these permits or approvals may be subject to denial, revocation or modification under various circumstances. Failure to obtain or comply with the conditions of permits or approvals may adversely affect our operations by temporarily suspending our activities or curtailing our work and may subject us to penalties and other sanctions. Although existing licenses are routinely renewed by various regulators, renewal could be denied or jeopardized by various factors, including:

• failure to provide adequate financial assurance for decommissioning or closure;

• failure to comply with environmental and safety laws and regulations or permit conditions;

• local community, political or other opposition;

• executive action; and

• legislative action.

In addition, if new environmental legislation or regulations are enacted or implemented, or existing laws or regulations are amended or are interpreted or enforced differently, we may be required to obtain additional operating permits or approvals. Our inability to obtain, and to comply with, the permits and approvals required for our businesses could have a material adverse effect on us.

We rely on intellectual property law and confidentiality agreements to protect our intellectual property. We also rely on intellectual property we license from third parties. Our failure to protect our intellectual property rights, or our inability to obtain or renew licenses to use intellectual property of third parties, could adversely affect our business.

Our success depends, in part, on our ability to protect our proprietary information and other intellectual property. Our intellectual property could be challenged, invalidated, circumvented or rendered unenforceable. In addition, effective intellectual property protection may be limited or unavailable in some foreign countries where we operate.

Our failure to protect our intellectual property rights may result in the loss of valuable technologies or adversely affect our competitive business position. We rely significantly on proprietary technology, information, processes and know-how that are not subject to patent or copyright protection. We seek to protect this information through trade secret or confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants, subcontractors or other parties, as well as through other security measures. These agreements and security measures may be

23

inadequate to deter or prevent misappropriation of our confidential information. In the event of an infringement of our intellectual property rights, a breach of a confidentiality agreement or divulgence of proprietary information, we may not have adequate legal remedies to protect our intellectual property. Litigation to determine the scope of intellectual property rights, even if ultimately successful, could be costly and could divert management’s attention away from other aspects of our business. In addition, our trade secrets may otherwise become known or be independently developed by competitors.

In some instances, we have augmented our technology base by licensing the proprietary intellectual property of third parties. In the future, we may not be able to obtain necessary licenses on commercially reasonable terms.

Our operations involve the handling, transportation and disposal of radioactive and hazardous materials, and environmental laws and regulations and civil liability for contamination of the environment or related personal injuries may result in increases in our operating costs and capital expenditures and decreases in our earnings and cash flow.

Our operations involve the handling, transportation and disposal of radioactive and hazardous materials, including nuclear devices and their components. Failure to properly handle these materials could pose a health risk to humans or wildlife and could cause personal injury and property damage (including environmental contamination). If an accident were to occur, its severity could be significantly affected by the volume of the materials and the speed of corrective action taken by emergency response personnel, as well as other factors beyond our control, such as weather and wind conditions. Actions taken in response to an accident could result in significant costs.

Governmental requirements relating to the protection of the environment, including solid waste management, air quality, water quality, the decontamination and decommissioning of nuclear manufacturing and processing facilities and cleanup of contaminated sites, have had a substantial impact on our operations. These requirements are complex and subject to frequent change. In some cases, they can impose liability for the entire cost of cleanup on any responsible party without regard to negligence or fault and impose liability on us for the conduct of others or conditions others have caused, or for our acts that complied with all applicable requirements when we performed them. Our compliance with amended, new or more stringent requirements, stricter interpretations of existing requirements or the future discovery of contamination may require us to make material expenditures or subject us to liabilities that we currently do not anticipate. Such expenditures and liabilities may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In addition, some of our operations and the operations of predecessor owners of some of our properties have exposed us to civil claims by third parties for liability resulting from alleged contamination of the environment or personal injuries caused by releases of hazardous substances into the environment. See “Business—Governmental Regulations and Environmental Matters.”

In our contracts, we seek to protect ourselves from liability associated with accidents, but there can be no assurance that such contractual limitations on liability will be effective in all cases or that our or our customers’ insurance will cover all the liabilities we have assumed under those contracts. The costs of defending against a claim arising out of a nuclear incident or precautionary evacuation, and any damages awarded as a result of such a claim, could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

We maintain insurance coverage as part of our overall risk management strategy and due to requirements to maintain specific coverage in our financing agreements and in many of our contracts. These policies do not protect us against all liabilities associated with accidents or for unrelated claims. In addition, comparable insurance may not continue to be available to us in the future at acceptable prices, or at all.

We conduct a portion of our operations through joint venture entities, over which we may have limited control.

We currently have equity interests in several significant joint ventures and may enter into additional joint venture arrangements in the future. We do not manage all of these entities. Even in those joint ventures that we

24

manage, we are often required to consider the interests of our joint venture partners in connection with decisions concerning the operations of the joint ventures. In any case, differences in views among the joint venture participants may result in delayed decisions or disputes. We also cannot control the actions of our joint venture participants, and we sometimes have joint and several liabilities with our joint venture partners under the applicable contracts for joint venture projects. These factors could potentially harm the business and operations of a joint venture and, in turn, our business and operations.

Operating through joint ventures in which we are minority holders results in us having limited control over many decisions made with respect to projects and internal controls relating to projects. These joint ventures may not be subject to the same requirements regarding internal controls and internal control over financial reporting that we follow. As a result, internal control problems may arise with respect to the joint ventures that could adversely affect our ability to respond to requests or contractual obligations to customers or to meet the internal control requirements to which we are otherwise subject.

In addition, our arrangements involving joint ventures may restrict us from gaining access to the cash flows or assets of these entities. In some cases, our joint ventures have governmentally imposed restrictions on their abilities to transfer funds to us.

If our co-venturers fail to perform their contractual obligations on a project or if we fail to coordinate effectively with our co-venturers, we could be exposed to legal liability, loss of reputation and reduced profit on the project.

We often perform projects jointly with third parties. For example, we enter into contracting consortia and other contractual arrangements to bid for and perform jointly on large projects. Success on these joint projects depends in part on whether our co-venturers fulfill their contractual obligations satisfactorily. If any one or more of these third parties fail to perform their contractual obligations satisfactorily, we may be required to make additional investments and provide additional services in order to compensate for that failure. If we are unable to adequately address any such performance issues, then our customer may exercise its right to terminate a joint project, exposing us to legal liability, loss of reputation and reduced profit.

Our collaborative arrangements also involve risks that participating parties may disagree on business decisions and strategies. These disagreements could result in delays, additional costs and risks of litigation. Our inability to successfully maintain existing collaborative relationships or enter into new collaborative arrangements could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

Employee, agent or partner misconduct or our overall failure to comply with laws or regulations could weaken our ability to win contracts, lead to the suspension of our operations and result in reduced revenues and profits.

Misconduct, fraud, non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations, or other improper activities by one or more of our employees, agents or partners could have a significant negative impact on our business and reputation. Such misconduct could include the failure to comply with government procurement regulations, regulations regarding the protection of classified information, regulations regarding the pricing of labor and other costs in government contracts, regulations on lobbying or similar activities, regulations pertaining to the internal controls over financial reporting and various other applicable laws or regulations. For example, we regularly provide services that may be highly sensitive or that are related to critical national security matters; if a security breach were to occur, our ability to procure future government contracts could be severely limited. The precautions we take to prevent and detect these activities may not be effective, and we could face unknown risks or losses.

We are routinely audited and reviewed by the U.S. Government and its agencies. These agencies review our performance under our contracts, our cost structure and our compliance with applicable laws, regulations and standards, as well as the adequacy of, and our compliance with, our internal control systems and policies. Systems

25

that are subject to review include our purchasing systems, billing systems, property management and control systems, cost estimating systems, compensation systems and management information systems. Any costs found to be improperly allocated to a specific contract will not be reimbursed or must be refunded if already reimbursed. If an audit or review uncovers improper or illegal activities, we could be subject to civil and criminal penalties and administrative sanctions, including termination of contracts, forfeiture of profits, suspension of payments, fines, loss of security clearance and suspension or debarment from contracting with the U.S. Government. In addition, we could suffer serious reputational harm if allegations of impropriety were made against us.

We could be adversely affected by violations of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

The U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”) generally prohibits companies and their intermediaries from making improper payments to non-U.S. officials. Our training program and policies mandate compliance with the FCPA. We operate in some parts of the world that have experienced governmental corruption to some degree, and, in certain circumstances, strict compliance with anti-bribery laws may conflict with local customs and practices. Although we have procedures and controls in place to monitor internal and external compliance, if we are found to be liable for violations of the FCPA (either due to our own acts or our inadvertence, or due to the acts or inadvertence of others), we could suffer from civil and criminal penalties or other sanctions.

We may not be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors.

Some of our competitors or potential competitors have greater financial or other resources than we have. Our operations may be adversely affected if our current competitors or new market entrants introduce new products or services with better features, performance, prices or other characteristics than those of our products and services. Furthermore, we operate in industries where capital investment is critical. We may not be able to obtain as much purchasing and borrowing leverage and access to capital for investment as an independent public company, which may impair our ability to compete against competitors or potential competitors.

The loss of the services of one or more of our key personnel, or our failure to attract, assimilate and retain trained personnel in the future, could disrupt our operations and result in loss of revenues.

Our success depends on the continued active participation of our executive officers and key operating personnel. The unexpected loss of the services of any one of these persons could adversely affect our operations.

Our operations require the services of employees having the technical training and experience necessary to obtain the proper operational results. As such, our operations depend, to a considerable extent, on the continuing availability of such personnel. If we should suffer any material loss of personnel to competitors or be unable to employ additional or replacement personnel with the requisite level of training and experience to adequately operate our business, our operations could be adversely affected. While we believe our wage rates are competitive and our relationships with our employees are satisfactory, a significant increase in the wages paid by other employers could result in a reduction in our workforce, increases in wage rates, or both. If either of these events occurred for a significant period of time, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be adversely impacted.

Negotiations with labor unions and possible work stoppages and other labor problems could divert management attention and disrupt operations. In addition, new collective bargaining agreements or amendments to agreements could increase our labor costs and operating expenses.

A significant number of our employees are members of labor unions. Although we have recently negotiated and renewed nearly all of our current union contracts for multi-year terms without incident, if we are unable to negotiate acceptable new contracts with our unions in the future, we could experience strikes or other work stoppages by the affected employees. If any such strikes or other work stoppages were to occur, we could experience a significant disruption of operations. In addition, negotiations with unions could divert management

26

attention. New union contracts could result in increased operating costs, as a result of higher wages or benefit expenses, for both union and nonunion employees. If nonunion employees were to unionize, we would experience higher ongoing labor costs.

Pension and medical expenses associated with our retirement benefit plans may fluctuate significantly depending on changes in actuarial assumptions, future market performance of plan assets, future trends in health care costs and legislative or other regulatory actions.

A substantial portion of our current and retired employee population is covered by pension and post-retirement benefit plans, the costs and funding requirements of which depend on our various assumptions, including estimates of rates of return on benefit-related assets, discount rates for future payment obligations, rates of future cost growth and trends for future costs. Variances from these estimates could have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, funding requirements for benefit obligations of our pension and post-retirement benefit plans are subject to legislative and other government regulatory actions. As of December 31, 2009, our defined benefit pension and post-retirement benefit plans were underfunded by approximately $869 million. See Note 7 to the combined financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 included in this information statement.

Our internal controls may not be sufficient to achieve all stated goals and objectives.

Our internal controls and procedures were developed through a process in which our management applied its judgment in assessing the costs and benefits of such controls and procedures, which, by their nature, can provide only reasonable assurance regarding the control objectives. You should note that the design of any system of internal controls and procedures is based in part upon various assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and we cannot assure you that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.

Our Government Operations segment relies on several single-source suppliers, which could, under certain circumstances, adversely affect our revenues and operating results.

Our Government Operations segment relies on several single-source suppliers for materials used in its products. If the supply of a single-sourced material is delayed or ceases, we may not be able to produce the related product in a timely manner or in sufficient quantities, if at all, which could adversely affect our revenues and operating results. In addition, a single-source supplier of a key component could potentially exert significant bargaining power over price, quality, warranty claims, or other terms relating to the single-sourced materials.

Systems and information technology interruption could adversely impact our ability to operate.

In 2010, we expect to replace current key financial and human resources legacy systems with enterprise systems. This implementation subjects us to inherent costs and risks associated with replacing and changing these systems, including potential disruption of our internal control structure, substantial capital expenditures, demands on management time and other risks of delays or difficulties in transitioning to new systems or of integrating new systems into our current systems. Our systems implementations may not result in productivity improvements at the levels anticipated, or at all. In addition, the implementation of new technology systems may cause disruptions in our business operations. This disruption and any other information technology system disruptions and our ability to mitigate those disruptions, if not anticipated and appropriately mitigated, could have a material adverse effect on us.

Our international operations are subject to political, economic and other uncertainties not generally encountered in our domestic operations.

We derive a portion of our revenues from international operations. Our international operations are subject to political, economic and other uncertainties not generally encountered in our U.S. operations. These include:

• risks of war, terrorism and civil unrest;

• expropriation, confiscation or nationalization of our assets;

27

• renegotiation or nullification of our existing contracts;

• changing political conditions and changing laws and policies affecting trade and investment;

• overlap of different tax structures; and

• risk of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Various foreign jurisdictions have laws limiting the right and ability of foreign subsidiaries and joint ventures to pay dividends and remit earnings to affiliated companies. Our international operations sometimes face the additional risks of fluctuating currency values, hard currency shortages and controls of foreign currency exchange.

War, other armed conflicts or terrorist attacks could have a material adverse effect on our business.

The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and terrorist attacks and unrest have caused and may continue to cause instability in the world’s financial and commercial markets and have significantly increased political and economic instability in some of the geographic areas in which we operate. Threats of war or other armed conflict may cause further disruption to financial and commercial markets. In addition, continued unrest could lead to acts of terrorism in the United States or elsewhere, and acts of terrorism could be directed against companies such as ours. Also, acts of terrorism and threats of armed conflicts in or around various areas in which we operate could limit or disrupt our markets and operations, including disruptions from evacuation of personnel, cancellation of contracts or the loss of personnel or assets. Armed conflicts, terrorism and their effects on us or our markets may significantly affect our business and results of operations in the future.

Risks Relating to the Spin-Off

We may be unable to achieve some or all of the benefits that we expect to achieve from our separation from McDermott.

As an independent public company, we believe that we will be able to more effectively focus on our operations and growth strategies than we could as a subsidiary of McDermott. However, by separating from McDermott there is a risk that our results of operations and cash flows may be susceptible to greater volatility due to fluctuations in our business levels and other factors that may adversely affect our operating and financial performance. In addition, as part of the McDermott group of companies, we have enjoyed certain benefits from McDermott’s financial resources, including substantial borrowing capacity and capital for investment. As a result of the fact that McDermott’s other operations will no longer be available to offset any volatility in our results of operations and cash flows and McDermott’s financial and other resources will no longer be available to us, we may not be able to achieve some or all of the benefits that we expect to achieve as an independent public company.

Our historical combined and pro forma financial information are not necessarily indicative of our future financial condition, future results of operations or future cash flows nor do they reflect what our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows would have been as an independent public company during the periods presented.

The historical combined financial information we have included in this information statement does not reflect what our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows would have been as an independent public company during the periods presented and is not necessarily indicative of our future financial condition, future results of operations or future cash flows. This is primarily a result of the following factors:

• our historical combined financial results reflect allocations of expenses for services historically provided by McDermott, and those allocations may be significantly lower than the comparable expenses we would have incurred as an independent company;

• our cost of debt and other capitalization may be significantly different from that reflected in our historical combined financial statements;

• the historical combined financial information does not reflect the changes that will occur in our cost structure, management, financing arrangements and business operations as a result of our separation from McDermott, including the costs related to being an independent company; and

28

• the historical combined financial information does not reflect the effects of certain liabilities that will be assumed by our company and does reflect the effects of certain assets that will be transferred to, and liabilities that will be assumed by, McDermott.

The pro forma adjustments are based on available information and assumptions that we believe are factually supportable. However, it is possible that our assumptions may prove not to be accurate. In addition, our unaudited pro forma combined financial statements do not give effect to certain on-going additional costs that we expect to incur in connection with being an independent public company. Accordingly, our unaudited pro forma combined financial statements do not reflect what our financial condition or results of operations would have been as an independent public company and are not necessarily indicative of our future financial condition or future results of operations. Please refer to “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Data” and our historical combined financial statements and the notes to those statements included in this information statement.

We do not have a recent history of operating as an independent public company, we may encounter difficulties in making the changes necessary to operate as an independent public company, and we may incur greater costs as an independent public company.

We have historically used McDermott’s infrastructure to support our business functions, including the following functions:

• accounting and financial reporting;

• information technology and communications;

• legal;

• human resources and employee benefits;

• tax administration; and

• treasury and corporate finance.

Following the spin-off, we will no longer have access to McDermott’s infrastructure, and we will need to establish our own. We expect to incur costs in 2010 to establish the necessary infrastructure to enable us to establish these business functions. We currently pay McDermott for these services on a cost-allocation basis. Following the spin-off, McDermott will continue to provide some of these services to us on a transitional basis, pursuant to transition services agreements we have entered into with McDermott. For more information regarding the transition services agreements, see “Relationship with McDermott After the Spin-Off—Agreements Between McDermott and Us—Transition Services Agreements.” At the end of this transition period, we will need to perform these functions ourselves or hire third parties to perform these functions on our behalf. The costs associated with performing or outsourcing these functions may exceed those charged by McDermott when we were part of McDermott or during the transition period. A significant increase in the costs of performing or outsourcing these functions could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Our accounting and other management systems and resources may not be adequately prepared to meet the financial reporting and other requirements to which we will be subject following the spin-off and may strain our resources.

Our financial results previously were included within the consolidated results of McDermott, and our reporting and control systems were appropriate for those of subsidiaries of a public company. However, we were not directly subject to reporting and other requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which we refer to as the Exchange Act. As a result of the spin-off, we will be directly subject to reporting and other obligations under the Exchange Act, including the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which will require, beginning with the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2011, annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial

29

reporting and a report by our independent registered public accounting firm addressing these assessments. These reporting and other obligations will place significant demands on our management and administrative and operational resources, including accounting resources.

To comply with these requirements, we anticipate that we will need to upgrade our systems, including information technology, implement additional financial and management controls, reporting systems and procedures and hire additional accounting and finance staff. We expect to incur additional annual expenses related to these steps and, among other things, directors and officers liability insurance, director fees, SEC reporting, transfer agent fees, increased auditing and legal fees and similar expenses, which expenses may be significant. If we are unable to upgrade our financial and management controls, reporting systems, information technology and procedures in a timely and effective fashion, our ability to comply with our financial reporting requirements and other rules that apply to reporting companies under the Exchange Act could be impaired. Any failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

We will be subject to continuing contingent liabilities of McDermott following the spin-off.

After the spin-off, there will be several significant areas where the liabilities of McDermott may become our obligations. For example, under the Code and the related rules and regulations, each corporation that was a member of our consolidated tax reporting group during any taxable period or portion of any taxable period ending on or before the effective time of the spin-off is jointly and severally liable for the federal income tax liability of our entire consolidated tax reporting group for that taxable period. We have entered into a tax sharing agreement with a subsidiary of McDermott that allocates the responsibility for prior period taxes of our consolidated tax reporting group between us and McDermott and its subsidiaries. See “Relationship with McDermott After the Spin-Off—Agreements Between McDermott and Us—Tax Sharing Agreement.” However, if the subsidiary of McDermott were unable to pay, we could be required to pay the entire amount of such taxes. Other provisions of federal law establish similar liability for other matters, including laws governing tax-qualified pension plans as well as other contingent liabilities.

The spin-off could result in substantial tax liability.

McDermott has obtained a private letter ruling from the IRS substantially to the effect that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the spin-off will qualify under Section 355 of the Code and certain transactions related to the spin-off will qualify under Sections 355 and/or 368 of the Code. The continued effectiveness of the private letter ruling is a condition to the completion of the spin-off. If the factual assumptions or representations made in the private letter ruling request are inaccurate or incomplete in any material respect, then we will not be able to rely on the ruling. Furthermore, the IRS will not rule on whether a distribution such as the spin-off satisfies certain requirements necessary to obtain tax-free treatment under section 355 of the Code. Rather, the private letter ruling is based on representations by McDermott that those requirements have been satisfied, and any inaccuracy in those representations could invalidate the ruling.

The spin-off is also conditioned on McDermott’s receipt of an opinion of Baker Botts L.L.P., in form and substance satisfactory to McDermott, substantially to the effect that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the spin-off will qualify under Section 355 of the Code and certain transactions related to the spin-off will qualify under Sections 355 and/or 368 of the Code. The opinion will rely on, among other things, the continuing validity of the private letter ruling and various assumptions and representations as to factual matters made by McDermott and us which, if inaccurate or incomplete in any material respect, would jeopardize the conclusions reached by such counsel in its opinion. The opinion will not be binding on the IRS or the courts, and there can be no assurance that the IRS or the courts will not challenge the conclusions stated in the opinion or that any such challenge would not prevail.

Neither we nor McDermott are aware of any facts or circumstances that would cause the assumptions or representations relied on in the private letter ruling or that will be relied on in the opinion to be inaccurate or

30

incomplete in any material respect. If, notwithstanding receipt of the private letter ruling and opinion, the spin-off were determined not to qualify under Section 355 of the Code, each U.S. holder of McDermott common stock who receives shares of our common stock in the spin-off would generally be treated as receiving a taxable distribution of property in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares of our common stock received. That distribution would be taxable to each such stockholder as a dividend to the extent of McDermott’s current and accumulated earnings and profits. For each such stockholder, any amount that exceeded McDermott’s earnings and profits would be treated first as a non-taxable return of capital to the extent of such stockholder’s tax basis in its shares of McDermott common stock with any remaining amount being taxed as a capital gain. In addition, if certain related preparatory transactions were to fail to qualify for tax-free treatment, we would be treated as if we had sold part of our assets (which will be retained by McDermott) in a taxable sale for fair market value and McDermott could be treated as receiving such assets from us as a taxable dividend. See “The Spin-Off—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Spin-Off.”

Under the terms of the tax sharing agreement we have entered into in connection with the spin-off, we will generally be responsible for any taxes imposed on us or McDermott and its subsidiaries in the event that the spin-off and/or certain related preparatory transactions were to fail to qualify for tax-free treatment. However, if the spin-off and/or certain related preparatory transactions were to fail to qualify for tax-free treatment because of actions or failures to act by McDermott or its subsidiaries, a subsidiary of McDermott would be responsible for all such taxes. If we are liable for taxes under the tax sharing agreement, that liability could have a material adverse effect on us. See “Relationship with McDermott After the Spin-Off—Agreements Between McDermott and Us—Tax Sharing Agreement.”

Potential liabilities associated with certain obligations under the tax sharing agreement cannot be precisely quantified at this time.

Under the terms of the tax sharing agreement we have entered into in connection with the spin-off, we will generally be responsible for all taxes attributable to us or any of our subsidiaries, whether accruing before, on or after the date of the spin-off. We have also agreed to be responsible for all taxes imposed on us or McDermott and its subsidiaries in the event the spin-off and/or certain related preparatory transactions were to fail to qualify for tax-free treatment. However, if the spin-off and/or certain related preparatory transactions were to fail to qualify for tax-free treatment because of actions or failures to act by McDermott or its subsidiaries, a subsidiary of McDermott would be responsible for all such taxes. Our liabilities under the tax sharing agreement could have a material adverse effect on us. At this time, we cannot precisely quantify the amount of liabilities we may have under the tax sharing agreement and there can be no assurances as to their final amounts. For a more detailed discussion, see “Relationship with McDermott After the Spin-Off—Agreements Between McDermott and Us—Tax Sharing Agreement.”

Under some circumstances, we could be liable for any resulting adverse tax consequences from engaging in significant strategic or capital raising transactions.

Even if the spin-off otherwise qualifies as a tax-free distribution under section 355 of the Code, certain preparatory transactions related to the spin-off may result in significant U.S. federal income tax liabilities to us under Section 355(e) or applicable provisions of the Code if 50% or more of McDermott’s stock or our stock (in each case, by vote or value) is treated as having been acquired, directly or indirectly, by one or more persons as part of a plan (or series of related transactions) that includes the spin-off. Any acquisitions of McDermott stock or our stock (or similar acquisitions), or any understanding, arrangement or substantial negotiations regarding such an acquisition of McDermott stock or our stock (or similar acquisitions), within two years before or after the spin-off are subject to special scrutiny. The process for determining whether an acquisition triggering those provisions has occurred is complex, inherently factual and subject to interpretation of the facts and circumstances of a particular case.

Under the terms of the tax sharing agreement we have entered into in connection with the spin-off, we are generally liable for any such tax liabilities. However, a subsidiary of McDermott will be required to indemnify us against any such tax liabilities that result from actions taken or failures to act by McDermott or its

31

subsidiaries. See “Relationship with McDermott After the Spin-Off—Agreements Between McDermott and Us—Tax Sharing Agreement.” As a result of these rules and contractual provisions, we may be unable to engage in strategic or capital raising transactions that our stockholders might consider favorable, or to structure potential transactions in the manner most favorable to us, without certain adverse tax consequences.

Potential indemnification liabilities to McDermott pursuant to the master separation agreement could materially adversely affect our company.

The master separation agreement with McDermott provides for, among other things, the principal corporate transactions required to effect the spin-off, certain conditions to the spin-off and provisions governing the relationship between our company and McDermott with respect to and resulting from the spin-off. For a description of the master separation agreement, see “Relationship with McDermott After the Spin-Off—Agreements Between McDermott and Us—Master Separation Agreement.” Among other things, the master separation agreement provides for indemnification obligations designed to make our company financially responsible for substantially all liabilities that may exist relating to our business activities, whether incurred prior to or after the spin-off, as well as those obligations of McDermott assumed by us pursuant to the master separation agreement. If we are required to indemnify McDermott under the circumstances set forth in the master separation agreement, we may be subject to substantial liabilities.

In connection with our separation from McDermott, McDermott will indemnify us for certain liabilities. However, there can be no assurance that the indemnity will be sufficient to insure us against the full amount of such liabilities, or that McDermott’s ability to satisfy its indemnification obligation will not be impaired in the future.

Pursuant to the master separation agreement, McDermott has agreed to indemnify us for certain liabilities. However, third parties could seek to hold us responsible for any of the liabilities that McDermott has agreed to retain, and there can be no assurance that the indemnity from McDermott will be sufficient to protect us against the full amount of such liabilities, or that McDermott will be able to fully satisfy its indemnification obligations. Moreover, even if we ultimately succeed in recovering from McDermott any amounts for which we are held liable, we may be temporarily required to bear these losses.

The terms of our separation from McDermott and the related agreements were determined in the context of a related-party transaction, and thus may not be comparable to terms that would be obtained in a transaction between unaffiliated parties.

Transactions and agreements entered into with McDermott on or before the closing of the spin-off present conflicts between our interests and those of McDermott. These transactions and agreements include the following:

• agreements related to the separation of our business from McDermott that provide for, among other things, the assumption by us of liabilities related to our business or subsidiaries, the assumption by McDermott of liabilities unrelated to our business, our respective rights, responsibilities and obligations with respect to taxes and tax benefits and the terms of our various interim and ongoing relationships, as described under “Relationship with McDermott After the Spin-Off—Agreements Between McDermott and Us”; and

• administrative support services provided by McDermott to us, as well as by us to McDermott, and other transactions with McDermott, as described under “Relationship with McDermott After the Spin-Off—Agreements Between McDermott and Us—Transition Services Agreements.”

Because the terms of our separation from McDermott and these agreements are being entered into in the context of a related-party transaction, these terms may not be comparable to terms that would be obtained in a transaction between unaffiliated parties. We may not be able to resolve potential conflicts, and even if we do, the resolutions may be less favorable than if we were dealing with an unaffiliated third party. See “Relationship with McDermott After the Spin-Off—Agreements Between McDermott and Us.”

32

Several members of our board and management may have conflicts of interest because of their ownership of shares of common stock of McDermott or because of their continuing service on the McDermott board of directors.

Several members of our board and management own shares of common stock of McDermott and/or options to purchase common stock of McDermott because of their current or prior relationships with McDermott. In addition, all of the current members of our board of directors were, and two of our directors will continue to serve as, members of the McDermott board of directors. This share ownership and the continuing role as a director of both companies by these two directors could create, or appear to create, potential conflicts of interest when our directors and executive officers are faced with decisions that could have different implications for our company and McDermott. See “Management.”

Risks Relating to Ownership of Our Common Stock

Because there has not been any public market for our common stock, the market price and trading volume of our common stock may be volatile and you may not be able to resell your shares of our common stock at or above the initial market price of our common stock following the spin-off.

Prior to the spin-off, there will have been no trading market for our common stock. We cannot assure you that an active trading market will develop or be sustained for our common stock after the spin-off, nor can we predict the prices at which our common stock will trade after the spin-off. The market price of our common stock could fluctuate significantly due to a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:

• fluctuations in our quarterly or annual earnings results or those of other companies in our industry;

• failures of our operating results to meet the estimates of securities analysts or the expectations of our stockholders or changes by securities analysts in their estimates of our future earnings;

• announcements by us or our customers, suppliers or competitors;

• changes in laws or regulations which adversely affect our industry or us;

• changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretations or principles;

• general economic, industry and stock market conditions;

• future sales of our common stock; and

• the other factors described in these “Risk Factors” and other parts of this information statement.

Substantial sales of our common stock could cause our stock price to decline and issuances by us may dilute your ownership in our company.

Any sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market after the spin-off, or the perception that these sales might occur, could lower the market price of our common stock and impede our ability to raise capital through the issuance of equity securities. Although we have no actual knowledge of any plan or intention on the part of any 5% or greater stockholder to sell our common stock following the spin-off, it is possible that some McDermott stockholders, including possibly some of McDermott’s largest stockholders, will sell the shares of our common stock they receive in the spin-off for various reasons. For example, such investors may not believe that our business profile or level of market capitalization as an independent company fits their investment objectives. Further, if we issue additional equity securities to raise additional capital, your ownership interest in our company will be diluted and the value of your investment may be reduced.

We have no plans to pay regular dividends on our common stock, so you may not receive funds without selling your shares of our common stock.

We have no current intent to pay a regular dividend. The credit agreement relating to our revolving credit facility includes restrictions on our ability to pay dividends. Our board of directors will determine the payment of future dividends on our common stock, if any, and the amount of any dividends in light of applicable law, contractual restrictions limiting our ability to pay dividends, our earnings and cash flows, our capital requirements,

33

our financial condition, and other factors our board of directors deems relevant. Accordingly, you may have to sell some or all of your shares of our common stock in order to generate cash flow from your investment.

Provisions in our corporate documents and Delaware law could delay or prevent a change in control of our company, even if that change may be considered beneficial by some stockholders.

The existence of some provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws and Delaware law could discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of our company that a stockholder may consider favorable. These include provisions:

• providing that our board of directors fixes the number of members of the board;

• providing for the division of our board of directors into three classes with staggered terms;

• limiting who may call special meetings of stockholders;

• prohibiting stockholder action by written consent, thereby requiring stockholder action to be taken at a meeting of the stockholders;

• establishing advance notice requirements for nominations of candidates for election to our board of directors or for proposing matters that can be acted on by stockholders at stockholder meetings;

• establishing supermajority vote requirements for certain amendments to our certificate of incorporation and bylaws;

• limiting the right of stockholders to remove directors;

• authorizing a large number of shares of common stock that are not yet issued, which would allow our board of directors to issue shares to persons friendly to current management, thereby protecting the continuity of our management, or which could be used to dilute the stock ownership of persons seeking to obtain control of us; and

• authorizing the issuance of “blank check” preferred stock, which could be issued by our board of directors to increase the number of outstanding shares and thwart a takeover attempt.

In addition, following the spin-off, we will be subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which may have an anti-takeover effect with respect to transactions not approved in advance by our board of directors, including discouraging takeover attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for shares of our common stock.

We believe these provisions protect our stockholders from coercive or otherwise unfair takeover tactics by requiring potential acquirors to negotiate with our board of directors and by providing our board of directors with more time to assess any acquisition proposal, and are not intended to make our company immune from takeovers. However, these provisions apply even if the offer may be considered beneficial by some stockholders and could delay or prevent an acquisition that our board of directors determines is not in the best interests of our company and our stockholders. See “Description of Capital Stock—Anti-Takeover Effects of Provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws.”

We may issue preferred stock that could dilute the voting power or reduce the value of our common stock.

Our certificate of incorporation authorizes us to issue, without the approval of our stockholders, one or more classes or series of preferred stock having such designation, powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other special rights, including preferences over our common stock respecting dividends and distributions, as our board of directors generally may determine. The terms of one or more classes or series of preferred stock could dilute the voting power or reduce the value of our common stock. For example, we could grant holders of preferred stock the right to elect some number of our directors in all events or on the happening of specified events or the right to veto specified transactions. Similarly, the repurchase or redemption rights or liquidation preferences we could assign to holders of preferred stock could affect the residual value of the common stock. See “Description of Capital Stock—Preferred Stock.”

When considering these forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind the risk factors and other cautionary statements contained in this information statement.

Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements that relate to, or statements that are subject to risks, contingencies or uncertainties that relate to:

• the expected benefits of the spin-off;

• our business strategies;

• future levels of revenues, operating margins, income from operations, net income or earnings per share;

• anticipated levels of demand for our products and services;

We have based our forward-looking statements on our current expectations, estimates and projections about our industries and our company. We caution that these statements are not guarantees of future performance and you should not rely unduly on them, as they involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that we cannot predict. In addition, we have based many of these forward-looking statements on assumptions about future events that may prove to be inaccurate. While our management considers these assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, regulatory and other risks, contingencies and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. Accordingly, our actual results may differ materially from the future performance that we have expressed or forecast in our forward-looking statements. Differences between actual results and any future performance suggested in our forward-looking statements could result from a variety of factors, including the following:

• general economic and business conditions and industry trends;

• general developments in the industries in which we are involved;

• decisions on spending by the U.S. Government and electric power generating companies;

• the highly competitive nature of our businesses;

• cancellations of and adjustments to backlog and the resulting impact from using backlog as an indicator of future earnings;

• the ability of our suppliers to deliver raw materials in sufficient quantities and in a timely manner;

• volatility and uncertainty of the credit markets;

35

• our ability to comply with covenants in our credit agreement and other debt instruments and availability, terms and deployment of capital;

• the continued availability of qualified personnel;

• the operating risks normally incident to our lines of business, including the potential impact of liquidated damages;

• changes in, or our failure or inability to comply with, government regulations;

• adverse outcomes from legal and regulatory proceedings;

• the impact of potential regional, national and/or global requirements to significantly limit or reduce greenhouse gas and other emissions in the future;

• changes in, and liabilities relating to, existing or future environmental regulatory matters;

• rapid technological changes;

• the realization of deferred tax assets, including through a reorganization McDermott completed in December 2006;

• the consequences of significant changes in interest rates and currency exchange rates;

• our ability to realize expected benefits from the spin-off;

• a determination by the IRS that the spin-off or certain related transactions should be treated as a taxable transaction;

• our different capital structure as an independent company, including our access to capital, credit ratings, debt and ability to raise additional financing;

• difficulties we may encounter in obtaining regulatory or other necessary approvals of any strategic transactions;

• the risks associated with integrating acquired businesses;

• social, political and economic situations in foreign countries where we do business;

• the possibilities of war, other armed conflicts or terrorist attacks;

• the effects of asserted and unasserted claims;

• our ability to obtain surety bonds, letters of credit and financing;

• our ability to maintain builder’s risk, liability, property and other insurance in amounts and on terms we consider adequate and at rates that we consider economical;

• the aggregated risks retained in our captive insurance subsidiary; and

• the impact of the loss of insurance rights as part of the final settlement in 2006 of the Chapter 11 proceedings involving several of our subsidiaries.

We believe the items we have outlined above are important factors that could cause estimates in our financial statements to differ materially from actual results and those expressed in the forward-looking statements made in this information statement. We have discussed many of these factors in more detail elsewhere in this information statement. These factors are not necessarily all the factors that could affect us. Unpredictable or unanticipated factors we have not discussed in this information statement could also have material adverse effects on actual results of matters that are the subject of our forward-looking statements. Neither we nor McDermott undertake any obligation to update the forward-looking statements included in this information statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this information statement, unless we are required by applicable securities laws to do so. We advise our security holders that they should (1) be aware that factors not referred to above could affect the accuracy of our forward-looking statements and (2) use caution and common sense when considering our forward-looking statements.

THE SPIN-OFF

General

The board of directors of McDermott regularly reviews the various operations conducted by McDermott to ensure that resources are deployed and activities are pursued in the best interest of its stockholders. On December 7, 2009, McDermott announced that its board of directors had approved in principle a plan involving the pro rata distribution of all of our shares of common stock to McDermott’s stockholders in a tax-free spin-off. The spin-off is subject to final approval by the McDermott board of directors, which approval is subject to, among other things, the conditions described below under “—Spin-Off Conditions and Termination.”

Our company is currently a wholly owned subsidiary of McDermott. McDermott owns the capital stock or other equity interests in subsidiaries that own generally all the assets, and are obligated on generally all the liabilities, comprising McDermott’s power generation systems and government operations businesses, which McDermott intends to separate from its other operations and transfer to us prior to our separation. McDermott will accomplish our separation through a pro rata distribution of 100% of our outstanding common stock to McDermott’s stockholders, which we refer to as the distribution or the spin-off, on [                    ], 2010, the distribution date. As a result of the spin-off, each holder of McDermott common stock as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on [                    ], 2010, the record date, will be entitled to:

• receive one share of our common stock for every [            ] shares of McDermott common stock owned by such holder; and

• retain such holder’s shares of McDermott common stock.

McDermott stockholders will not be required to pay for shares of our common stock received in the spin-off or to surrender or exchange shares of McDermott common stock in order to receive our common stock or to take any other action in connection with the spin-off. No vote of McDermott stockholders will be required or sought in connection with the spin-off, and McDermott stockholders will have no appraisal rights in connection with the spin-off.

Reasons for the Spin-Off

McDermott’s board and management believe that our separation from McDermott will provide the following benefits:

• improved positioning for each company to accelerate growth based on its distinct corporate strategy, market opportunities, free cash flow and customer relationships;

• more efficient allocation of capital, which will allow each company to develop an independent investment program without the constraints of a holding company, conglomerate structure;

• establishment of distinct publicly traded stock for each company, which may be used as “currencies” to facilitate future acquisitions;

• elimination of the risk to the combined businesses posed by recent modifications to the rules under the FAR that limit the U.S. Government’s ability to contract with “inverted” companies and their subsidiaries; and

• sharpened management focus and strategic vision and closer alignment of management incentives with stockholder value creation.

As discussed below, the recent modifications to the rules under the FAR had a significant impact on the McDermott board’s decision to effect the spin-off at this time.

Improved positioning for each company to accelerate growth

McDermott’s board of directors and senior management believe that McDermott and B&W will be better positioned to accelerate their growth as two separate, publicly traded companies as compared to the current

37

combined company structure. McDermott’s board of directors believes that opportunities for growth will result from the improved ability of each company to focus on and implement its distinct corporate strategy, take advantage of available market opportunities on a more timely basis, reinvest its cash flows within the business as its board of directors and management deem appropriate, and develop stronger and broader relationships with its customers.

As part of a combined company, each company’s growth initiatives have effectively competed with the other company’s investment opportunities in terms of available funding, resources, prioritization and time permitted for review and approval. The businesses of McDermott and B&W have typically operated autonomously. However, due to the different cyclicality characteristics of the McDermott and B&W businesses, each company has not had the ability to reinvest its cash flows in internal growth as quickly as may have been desirable for its business on a standalone basis. For the same reason, the capital structure of the combined company has been relatively conservative. While this capital structure was appropriate for the combined company, it had a negative impact on the ability of each company to implement strategies for its own business on a standalone basis. Finally, so long as McDermott and B&W were a combined company, part of the strategy of the combined company was to maintain a balance between its businesses and not become overly concentrated in either one of these businesses. However, this strategy reduced the ability of each company to pursue its own growth initiatives.

More efficient allocation of capital

As discussed above, as part of the combined company, McDermott and B&W effectively competed for capital resources. In addition, the combined company maintained an appropriate level of liquidity for that type of structure. As a result, the flexibility of each company to invest capital in its business in a time and manner as its separate strategy would dictate was limited. McDermott’s board of directors and senior management believe that the separation of the offshore oil and gas construction business from the power generation systems and government operations businesses will enable a more efficient allocation of capital by providing each separate company’s board of directors and management the ability to reinvest that company’s free cash flow, utilize cash and investments and access the capital markets, if needed, in a manner responsive to the needs of that specific company, rather than the needs of the combined company. We expect that this more efficient allocation of capital will provide the separated companies with greater flexibility to pursue their strategic initiatives within their capital-intensive industries.

Establishment of distinct publicly traded stock “currencies” to facilitate future acquisitions

As separate offshore oil and gas construction and power generation systems and government operations companies, we believe each company’s stock can also serve as a more attractive acquisition “currency” to potential targets than the existing McDermott common stock. In the case of an acquisition of a business in which part of the consideration is to be paid in stock, we believe that the existing investors in the acquisition target company would generally prefer to receive stock of another company in the same sector as the target, rather than stock of an integrated company that has exposure to other sectors that they may not prefer or as to which they may not have sufficient familiarity to remain as long-term investors.

Elimination of the risk to the combined businesses posed by recent modifications to the rules under the FAR

On July 1, 2009, the U.S. Civilian Agency Acquisition Council and the U.S. Defense Acquisition Regulations Council (the “FAR Councils”), acting under the FAR, adopted interim rules, with an immediate effective date, that established contracting procedures to implement a mandate in the Omnibus Appropriations Act, 2009, that generally prohibits U.S. federal agencies from awarding new contracts to inverted companies and their subsidiaries with U.S. federal appropriated funds for fiscal year 2009 and certain prior fiscal years. The current version of the proposed U.S. federal appropriations legislation for 2010 contains restrictions on contracting with inverted companies similar to those in the 2009 Omnibus Appropriations Act.

38

As a result of a 1982 reorganization transaction, pursuant to which McDermott International, Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of the Republic of Panama, became the parent entity within the McDermott group of companies, McDermott International, Inc. would likely be considered an “inverted” company under the interim rules under the FAR, and, if so, B&W would be considered a subsidiary of an “inverted” company. The interim rules are not clear as to their impact on joint ventures, including those in which we are the majority or controlling owner. As of the date of this information statement, it is uncertain as to when the FAR Councils will adopt the final version of the interim rules and whether and the extent to which the final rules may differ from the interim rules. Although we believe the interim rules do not impact any of our existing contracts and should not adversely impact our ability to enter into subcontracts relating to government projects, the interim rules will impact our ability to pursue new contract awards directly with the U.S. Government, unless we are able to obtain waivers, which are available only on a very limited basis, or change our status as a subsidiary of an “inverted” company.

In approving the spin-off, McDermott’s board of directors considered the fact that we derive a substantial amount of our revenues and profits from services provided to the U.S. Government, and the fact that any significant restriction on our ability to pursue future U.S. Government contract work consistent with our past operations would have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the combined companies.

McDermott’s board of directors also considered the fact that various tax legislative proposals intending to eliminate some perceived tax advantages of companies that have legal domiciles outside the United States but operate in the United States through one or more subsidiaries have repeatedly been introduced in the U.S. Congress. McDermott’s board of directors and management considered that, if legislation were to be enacted in this area, the combined companies could be subject to a substantial increase in corporate income taxes, which could have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the combined companies.

In light of these considerations, McDermott’s board of directors, with input from its independent financial and legal advisors, engaged in a fresh, comprehensive review of the combined company and its businesses, focusing on the best way for us to continue serving the U.S. Government’s defense and nuclear operations objectives, while enhancing long-term value for McDermott’s stockholders. As a result of the spin-off, B&W will be an independent company still incorporated in Delaware, but without a foreign-organized parent entity. As such, we believe B&W will be able to compete for new contracts with the U.S. Government without restriction from the interim rules under the FAR and without any concern of the possible impact of future tax legislation aimed at companies that have legal domiciles outside the United States but operate in the United States through one or more subsidiaries. Furthermore, the independent operation of the two businesses, with B&W as a Delaware corporation, will permit us to continue to serve the needs of our U.S. Government customers without interruption as a result of these rule modifications, while allowing McDermott the opportunity to pursue its independent business strategy. Taking these considerations into account, the modifications to the rules under the FAR had a significant impact on the McDermott board’s decision to effect the spin-off at this time.

Sharpened management focus and strategic vision and closer alignment of management incentives with stockholder value creation

McDermott’s board of directors and management also took into account the fact that each company has different business strategies and offers significantly different business opportunities for growth. They determined that the spin-off should allow the management team of each company to improve its focus on its strategic priorities and make business and operational decisions that are in the best interest of its operations, taking into consideration the different challenges and opportunities and different financial profiles and capital needs pertinent to its business. As separate companies, each will be able independently to prioritize allocation of resources and capital in support of its business strategies. As a combined company, our projects have effectively competed with other investment opportunities within McDermott. As separate companies, each of McDermott and our company will no longer have to compete for investment capital with the other, and each would be in a position to pursue a growth strategy to optimize its own operations. By eliminating the necessary time and

39

resources required to resolve conflicting business priorities and strategic needs, the two businesses will be better able to compete through quicker decision making, more efficient deployment of capital and corporate resources and enhanced responsiveness to market demands.

In addition, McDermott’s board of directors and management concluded that the separation of the two businesses through the spin-off will allow each company to provide incentive compensation to its key employees in the form of equity-based incentive compensation that is more closely aligned with the performance of each business. By separating the two companies, management of each company should be in an improved position to attract employees with the correct skill set, to motivate them appropriately and to retain them for the long term.

McDermott’s board of directors also considered a number of potentially negative factors in evaluating the spin-off, including:

• the potential loss of synergies from operating as one company and potential increased costs;

• potential loss of joint purchasing power;

• potential disruptions to the businesses as a result of the spin-off;

• the limitations placed on our company as a result of the tax sharing agreement and other agreements we have entered into with McDermott in connection with the spin-off;

• risks of being unable to achieve the benefits expected to be achieved by the spin-off;

• the risk that the spin-off might not be completed;

• the costs of the spin-off; and

• the risk that the trading price of a share of McDermott common stock after the spin-off plus the trading price of the [            ]/[            ] of a share of B&W common stock distributed for each share of McDermott common stock will, in the aggregate, be less than the trading price of a share of McDermott common stock before the spin-off.

Except in connection with its overall determination with respect to our company as a viable, stand-alone public company following the spin-off, McDermott’s board of directors did not consider existing or reasonably likely future litigation against B&W for personal injury, property damage or wrongful death claims as a significant factor in its deliberations relating to the spin-off.

The McDermott board of directors concluded that the potential long-term benefits of the spin-off outweighed these factors.

In view of the wide variety of factors considered in connection with the evaluation of the spin-off and the complexity of these matters, McDermott’s board of directors did not find it useful to, and did not attempt to, quantify, rank or otherwise assign relative weights to the factors considered. The individual members of the McDermott board of directors likely may have given different weights to different factors.

Results of the Spin-Off

After the spin-off, we will be an independent public company. Immediately following the spin-off, we expect that approximately [            ] shares of our common stock will be issued and outstanding, based on the distribution of one share of our common stock for every [            ] shares of McDermott common stock outstanding and the number of shares of McDermott common stock outstanding on [            ], 2010. The actual number of shares of our common stock to be distributed will be determined based on the number of shares of McDermott common stock outstanding as of the record date. We also expect to have approximately [    ] stockholders of record, based on the number of stockholders of record of McDermott common stock on [                    ], 2010.

40

We and McDermott are parties to a number of agreements that govern the spin-off and our future relationship. For a more detailed description of these agreements, please see “Relationship with McDermott After the Spin-Off—Agreements Between McDermott and Us.”

You will not be required to make any payment for the shares of B&W common stock you receive, nor will you be required to surrender or exchange your shares of McDermott common stock or take any other action in order to receive the shares of B&W common stock to which you are entitled. The spin-off will not affect the number of outstanding shares of McDermott common stock or any rights of McDermott stockholders, although it will affect the market value of the outstanding McDermott common stock.

Manner of Effecting the Spin-Off

The general terms and conditions relating to the spin-off are set forth in a master separation agreement between McDermott and us. For a description of the terms of that agreement, see “Relationship with McDermott After the Spin-Off—Agreements Between McDermott and Us—Master Separation Agreement.” Under the master separation agreement, the spin-off will be effective on the distribution date. As a result of the spin-off, each McDermott stockholder will be entitled to receive one share of our common stock for every [            ] shares of McDermott common stock owned on the record date. As discussed under “—Trading of McDermott Common Stock After the Record Date and Prior to the Distribution,” if a holder of record of McDermott common stock sells those shares in the “regular way” market after the record date and on or prior to the distribution date, that stockholder also will be selling the right to receive shares of our common stock in the distribution. The distribution will be made in book-entry form. For registered McDermott stockholders, our transfer agent will credit their shares of our common stock to book-entry accounts established to hold their shares of our common stock. Book-entry refers to a method of recording stock ownership in our records in which no physical certificates are issued. For stockholders who own McDermott common stock through a bank or brokerage firm, their shares of our common stock will be credited to their accounts by the bank or broker. See “—When and How You Will Receive B&W Shares” below. Each share of our common stock that is distributed will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Holders of shares of our common stock will not be entitled to preemptive rights. See “Description of Capital Stock.”

When and How You Will Receive B&W Shares

On the distribution date, McDermott will release its shares of B&W common stock for distribution by Computershare Trust Company, N.A., the distribution agent. The distribution agent will cause the shares of B&W common stock to which you are entitled to be registered in your name or in the “street name” of your bank or brokerage firm.

“Street Name” Holders. Many McDermott stockholders hold McDermott common stock through an account with a bank or brokerage firm. If this applies to you, that bank or brokerage firm is the registered holder that holds the shares on your behalf. For stockholders who hold their shares of McDermott common stock in an account with a bank or brokerage firm, the B&W common stock distributed to you will be registered in the “street name” of your bank or broker, who in turn will electronically credit your account with the B&W shares that you are entitled to receive in the distribution. We anticipate that banks and brokers will generally credit their customers’ accounts with B&W common stock on or shortly after the distribution date. We encourage you to contact your bank or broker if you have any questions regarding the mechanics of having shares of B&W common stock credited to your account.

Registered Holders. If you are the registered holder of shares of McDermott common stock and hold your shares of McDermott common stock either in physical form or in book-entry form, the shares of B&W common stock distributed to you will be registered in your name and you will become the holder of record of that number of shares of B&W common stock. Our distribution agent will send you a statement reflecting your ownership of our common stock.

41

Direct Registration System. As part of the spin-off, we will be adopting a direct registration system for book-entry share registration and transfer of our common stock. The shares of our common stock to be distributed in the spin-off will be distributed as uncertificated shares registered in book-entry form through the direct registration system. No certificates representing your shares will be mailed to you in connection with the spin-off. Under the direct registration system, instead of receiving stock certificates, you will receive a statement reflecting your ownership interest in our shares. Contact information for our transfer agent and registrar is provided under “Questions and Answers About the Spin-Off.” The distribution agent will begin mailing book-entry account statements reflecting your ownership of shares promptly after the distribution date. You can obtain more information regarding the direct registration system by contacting our transfer agent and registrar.

Treatment of Fractional Shares

The transfer agent will not deliver any fractional shares of our common stock in connection with the spin-off. Instead, the transfer agent will aggregate all fractional shares and sell them on behalf of those holders who otherwise would be entitled to receive a fractional share. We anticipate that these sales will occur as soon as practicable after the distribution date. Those holders will then receive a cash payment in the form of a check in an amount equal to their pro rata share of the total net proceeds of those sales. If you physically hold McDermott stock certificates, your check for any cash that you may be entitled to receive instead of fractional shares of our common stock will be mailed to you separately. We expect that checks will generally be distributed to stockholders within one to two weeks after the distribution date. Broker selling expenses in connection with these sales will be paid by McDermott.

It is expected that all fractional shares held in street name will be aggregated and sold by brokers or other nominees according to their standard procedures. You should contact your broker or other nominee for additional details.

None of McDermott, our company or the transfer agent will guarantee any minimum sale price for the fractional shares of our common stock. Neither we nor McDermott will pay any interest on the proceeds from the sale of fractional shares. The receipt of cash in lieu of fractional shares will generally be taxable to the recipient stockholders. See “—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Spin-Off.”

Market for Our Common Stock

There is currently no public market for our common stock. A condition to the spin-off is the listing on the NYSE of our common stock. Our common stock has been approved for listing on the NYSE under the symbol “BWC.” We anticipate that trading of our common stock will commence on a “when-issued” basis on or shortly before the record date. When-issued trading refers to a sale or purchase made conditionally because the security has been authorized but not yet issued. On the first trading day following the distribution date, when-issued trading with respect to our common stock will end and “regular way” trading will begin. Regular way trading refers to trading after a security has been issued and typically involves a transaction that settles on the third full business day following the date of the transaction. Neither we nor McDermott can assure you as to the trading price of our common stock after the spin-off or as to whether the trading price of a share of McDermott common stock after the spin-off plus the trading price of the [            ] shares of our common stock distributed for each share of McDermott common stock will not, in the aggregate, be less than the trading price of a share of McDermott common stock before the spin-off. The trading price of our common stock is likely to fluctuate significantly, particularly until an orderly market develops. See “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Ownership of Our Common Stock.” In addition, we cannot predict any change that may occur in the trading price of McDermott’s common stock as a result of the spin-off.

Trading of McDermott Common Stock After the Record Date and Prior to the Distribution

Beginning on or shortly before the record date and through the distribution date, there will be two concurrent markets in which to trade McDermott common stock: a “regular way” market and an

42

“ex-distribution” market. Shares of McDermott common stock that trade in the “regular way” market will trade with an entitlement to shares of our common stock distributed in connection with the spin-off. Shares that trade in the “ex-distribution” market will trade without an entitlement to shares of our common stock distributed in connection with the spin-off. Therefore, if you owned shares of McDermott common stock at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the record date and sell those shares in the “regular way” market on or prior to the distribution date, you also will be selling your right to receive the shares of our common stock that would have been distributed to you in connection with the spin-off. If you sell those shares of McDermott common stock in the “ex-distribution” market prior to or on the distribution date, you will still receive the shares of our common stock that were to be distributed to you in connection with the spin-off as a result of your ownership of the shares of McDermott common stock.

We expect to have approximately [    ] million shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after the spin-off, based upon the number of shares of McDermott common stock outstanding on [            ], 2010. The shares of our common stock distributed to McDermott stockholders will be freely transferable, except for shares received by persons who may be deemed to be our “affiliates” under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and except for shares issued as restricted stock under our incentive plan. Persons who may be deemed to be our affiliates after the spin-off generally include individuals or entities that control, are controlled by, or are under common control with us, and may include some or all of our directors and executive officers. Our affiliates will be permitted to sell their shares of B&W common stock only pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, such as the exemption afforded by Rule 144.

Treatment of Stock-Based Awards

In connection with the spin-off, we currently expect that, subject to the approval of the compensation committee of McDermott’s board of directors, McDermott’s outstanding equity-based compensation awards will generally be treated as follows:

• Each outstanding option to purchase shares of McDermott common stock that is held by a director, officer or employee of McDermott who will remain a director, officer or employee of McDermott and will not be a director, officer or employee of B&W immediately after the spin-off will be replaced with an adjusted option to purchase McDermott common stock. Each of those adjusted options will reflect adjustments that will be generally intended to preserve the intrinsic value of the original option and the ratio of the exercise price to the fair market value of the stock subject to the option by adjusting the number of shares purchasable and the exercise price, by reference to the “regular way” closing price for McDermott common stock as of the distribution date and the volume-weighted-average trading price of the McDermott common stock in the first five trading days following the distribution date. The replacement options will generally be made subject to the same terms and conditions as the options being replaced. To the extent the options being replaced are vested, the replacement options will also be vested.

• Each outstanding option to purchase shares of McDermott common stock that is held by a person who is or will be a director of B&W (but not of McDermott) or by a person who is or will be an officer or employee of B&W immediately after the spin-off will be replaced with substitute options to purchase shares of B&W common stock. Each of those substitute options will have terms that will be generally intended to preserve the intrinsic value of the original option and the ratio of the exercise price to the fair market value of the stock subject to the option by adjusting the number of shares purchasable and the exercise price, by reference to the opening prices of a share of McDermott common stock and a share of B&W common stock on the first trading day following the distribution date. The substitute options will generally be made subject to the same terms and conditions as the options being replaced. To the extent the options being replaced are vested, the substitute options will also be vested.

• Each outstanding option to purchase shares of McDermott common stock that is held by a (1) person who is a director of McDermott and who will remain on the board of directors of McDermott and will

43

also be on the board of directors of B&W immediately after the spin-off or (2) person who is one of a small number of current officers of B&W who will not serve as officers of B&W after the Distribution Date (the “Former B&W Officers”) will be replaced with both an adjusted McDermott stock option and a substitute B&W stock option. Both options, when combined, will have terms that will be generally intended to preserve the intrinsic value of the original option and the ratio of the exercise price to the fair market value of the stock subject to the option, by reference to the ratio of [            ] shares of B&W common stock being distributed for each share of McDermott common stock in the spin-off, the “regular way” closing price for McDermott common stock as of the distribution date, and the volume-weighted-average trading prices of the McDermott common stock and the B&W common stock in the first five trading days following the distribution date. Both the replacement and the substitute options will generally be made subject to the same terms and conditions as the original options. All McDermott stock options held by directors of McDermott as of the distribution date will have previously become vested pursuant to their existing terms. Accordingly, all adjusted or substitute options issued to McDermott directors will also be vested.

• The McDermott restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards and deferred stock unit awards of officers or employees of McDermott who will remain officers or employees of McDermott and will not become officers or employees of B&W immediately after the spin-off will be replaced with adjusted McDermott awards, each of which will generally preserve the value of the original award. The adjusted awards will generally be made subject to the same terms and conditions as the awards being replaced. As of the distribution date, none of McDermott’s directors will hold any restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, deferred stock unit awards or performance share awards.

• The McDermott restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards and deferred stock unit awards of persons who are or will be officers or employees of B&W immediately after the spin-off will be converted into substitute B&W awards, each of which will generally preserve the value of the original award. The adjusted awards will generally be made subject to the same terms and conditions as the awards being replaced.

• The McDermott restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards and deferred stock unit awards of the Former B&W Officers will be converted into rights to receive (1) an equivalent number of unrestricted shares of McDermott common stock and (2) [            ] shares of B&W common stock for each such share of McDermott common stock, in accordance with the spin-off distribution.

• The McDermott performance share awards of officers or employees of McDermott who will remain officers or employees of McDermott and will not become officers or employees of B&W immediately after the spin-off will be converted into unvested rights to receive the value of deemed target performance in unrestricted shares of McDermott common stock, with the same vesting terms as the original awards.

• The McDermott performance share awards of persons who are or will be officers or employees of B&W immediately after the spin-off will be converted into unvested rights to receive the value of deemed target performance in unrestricted shares of B&W common stock, with the same vesting terms as the original awards.

• The McDermott performance share awards of the Former B&W Officers will be converted into rights to receive the value of deemed target performance in unrestricted shares of McDermott common stock and B&W common stock, in accordance with the spin-off distribution.

Any former employees of McDermott or B&W who hold outstanding stock options, shares of restricted stock, restricted stock units, deferred stock units or performance shares which are unvested will have their stock options, shares of restricted stock, restricted stock units, deferred stock units or performance shares similarly adjusted or replaced as a result of the spin-off.

In the case of adjusting McDermott options or granting substitute B&W options, the conversion formula may result in fractional shares or fractional cents. Any fractional shares subject to adjusted McDermott options

44

and substitute B&W options will be disregarded, and the number of shares subject to such options will be rounded down to the next lower whole number of shares. The exercise price for such options will be rounded up to the next higher whole cent. There are no stock appreciation rights currently outstanding under the McDermott incentive plans.

Spin-Off Conditions and Termination

We expect that the spin-off will be effective on [                    ], 2010, provided that, among other things:

• the SEC has declared effective our registration statement on Form 10, of which this information statement is a part, under the Exchange Act, with no stop order in effect with respect to the Form 10, and this information statement shall have been mailed to McDermott’s stockholders;

• the actions and filings necessary under securities and blue sky laws of the states of the United States and any comparable laws under any foreign jurisdictions have been taken and become effective;

• no order, injunction, decree or regulation issued by any court or agency of competent jurisdiction or other legal restraint or prohibition preventing the consummation of the spin-off is in effect;

• our common stock has been approved for listing on the New York Stock Exchange, subject to official notice of issuance;

• the private letter ruling McDermott obtained from the IRS with respect to the tax treatment of the spin-off has not been revoked or modified by the IRS in any material respect, and McDermott has received an opinion from its tax counsel regarding the tax treatment of the spin-off as of the distribution date (see “—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Spin-Off” for more information regarding the private letter ruling and opinion of tax counsel);

• each of the ancillary agreements related to the spin-off shall have been entered into before the spin-off and shall not have been materially breached by any party thereto;

• all material governmental approvals and material consents necessary to consummate the spin-off have been received and continue to be in full force and effect; and

• no other events or developments have occurred that, in the judgment of the board of directors of McDermott, in its sole and absolute discretion, would result in the spin-off having a material adverse effect on McDermott or its stockholders.

McDermott may waive one or more of these conditions in its sole and absolute discretion, and the determination by McDermott regarding the satisfaction of these conditions will be conclusive. The fulfillment of these conditions will not create any obligation on McDermott’s part to effect the distribution, and McDermott has reserved the right to amend, modify or abandon any and all terms of the distribution and the related transactions at any time prior to the distribution date.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Spin-Off

The following is a summary of material U.S. federal income tax consequences relating to the spin-off. This summary is based on the Code, related U.S. Treasury regulations, and interpretations of the Code and the U.S. Treasury regulations by the courts and the IRS, in effect as of the date of this information statement, and all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. This summary does not discuss all the tax considerations that may be relevant to McDermott stockholders in light of their particular circumstances, nor does it address the consequences to McDermott stockholders subject to special treatment under the U.S. federal income tax laws (such as non-U.S. persons, insurance companies, dealers or brokers in securities or currencies, tax-exempt organizations, financial institutions, mutual funds, pass-through entities and investors in such entities, holders who hold their shares as a hedge or as part of a hedging, straddle, conversion, synthetic security, integrated investment or other risk-reduction transaction or who are subject to alternative minimum tax or

45

holders who acquired their shares upon the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation). In addition, this summary does not address the U.S. federal income tax consequences to those McDermott stockholders who do not hold their McDermott common stock as a capital asset. Finally, this summary does not address any state, local or foreign tax consequences.

MCDERMOTT STOCKHOLDERS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS CONCERNING THE U.S. FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL AND FOREIGN TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE SPIN-OFF TO THEM.

The spin-off is conditioned on the continued effectiveness of a private letter ruling obtained from the IRS and McDermott’s receipt of an opinion from Baker Botts L.L.P. (which opinion will rely, in part, on the continued effectiveness of the private letter ruling), in each case substantially to the effect that (1) the spin-off will qualify under Section 355 of the Code and certain transactions related to the spin-off will qualify under Sections 355 and/or 368 of the Code, and (2) the spin-off and certain related transactions will further qualify for tax-free treatment to McDermott and to us.

Assuming the spin-off and such related transactions meet the conditions described above:

• the spin-off and certain related transactions will not result in any U.S. taxable income, gain or loss to McDermott or to us, other than with respect to any intercompany items or excess loss accounts required to be taken into account under Treasury regulations relating to consolidated returns;

• no gain or loss will be recognized by (and no amount will be included in the taxable income of) McDermott stockholders on their receipt of shares of our common stock in the spin-off;

• the holding period of shares of our common stock received by each McDermott stockholder will include the holding period at the time of the spin-off for the McDermott common stock on which the spin-off is made;

• the tax basis of the McDermott common stock held by each McDermott stockholder immediately before the spin-off will be allocated between that McDermott common stock and our common stock received, including any fractional share of our stock deemed received in the spin-off, in proportion to the relative fair market value of each on the date of the spin-off; and

• a McDermott stockholder who receives cash for a fractional share of our common stock will generally recognize capital gain or loss measured by the difference between the amount of cash received and the basis of the fractional share interest in our common stock to which the stockholder would otherwise be entitled.

U.S. Treasury Regulations also generally provide that if a McDermott stockholder holds different blocks of McDermott common stock (generally shares of McDermott common stock purchased or acquired on different dates or at different prices), the aggregate basis for each block of McDermott common stock purchased or acquired on the same date and at the same price will be allocated, to the greatest extent possible, between the shares of our common stock received in the spin-off in respect of such block of McDermott common stock and such block of McDermott common stock, in proportion to their respective fair market values, and the holding period of the shares of our common stock received in the spin-off in respect of such block of McDermott common stock will include the holding period of such block of McDermott common stock. If a McDermott stockholder is not able to identify which particular shares of our common stock are received in the spin-off with respect to a particular block of McDermott common stock, for purposes of applying the rules described above, the stockholder may designate which shares of our common stock are received in the spin-off in respect of a particular block of McDermott common stock, provided that such designation is consistent with the terms of the spin-off. Holders of McDermott common stock are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the application of these rules to their particular circumstances.

Although a private letter ruling from the IRS generally is binding on the IRS, if the factual representations or assumptions made in the private letter ruling request are inaccurate or incomplete in any material respect, we

46

will not be able to rely on the private letter ruling. Furthermore, the IRS will not rule on whether a distribution satisfies certain requirements necessary to qualify under Section 355 of the Code or to obtain tax-free treatment to McDermott and its stockholders under Section 355 of the Code. Rather, the private letter ruling is based on representations by McDermott that these requirements have been satisfied, and any inaccuracy in such representations could invalidate the private letter ruling. In addition to the continued effectiveness of the private letter ruling from the IRS, McDermott has made it a condition to the spin-off that McDermott obtain an opinion of Baker Botts L.L.P. substantially to the effect that (1) the spin-off will qualify under Section 355 of the Code and certain transactions related to the spin-off will qualify under Sections 355 and/or 368 of the Code, and (2) the spin-off and certain related transactions will further qualify for tax-free treatment to McDermott and to us. The opinion will address those matters upon which the IRS will not rule and will rely on the private letter ruling as to matters covered by the private letter ruling. In addition, the opinion will be based on, among other things, certain assumptions and representations made by McDermott and us, which if incorrect or inaccurate in any material respect would jeopardize the conclusions reached by such counsel in its opinion. The opinion will not be binding on the IRS or the courts and will be subject to other qualifications and limitations.

Notwithstanding receipt by McDermott of the private letter ruling and opinion of counsel, the IRS could assert that the spin-off and/or certain related transactions do not qualify for tax-free treatment for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If the IRS were successful in making such an assertion, we and our initial public stockholders could be subject to significant U.S. federal income tax liability. In general, (1) with respect to the spin-off, our initial public stockholders could be treated as if they had received a taxable distribution from McDermott in an amount equal to the fair market value of our common stock that was distributed to them and (2) with respect to certain related transactions, we would be treated as if we had sold part of our assets (which will be retained by McDermott) in a taxable sale for fair market value and McDermott could be treated as receiving such assets from us as a taxable dividend. For example, even if the spin-off were otherwise to qualify under Section 355 of the Code, certain related preparatory transactions may be taxable to us (but not to McDermott or our initial stockholders) under Section 355(e) of the Code, if the spin-off were later deemed to be part of a plan (or series of related transactions) pursuant to which one or more persons acquire, directly or indirectly, stock representing a 50% or greater interest in McDermott or us. For this purpose, any acquisitions of McDermott common stock or of our common stock within the period beginning two years before the spin-off and ending two years after the spin-off are presumed to be part of such a plan, although we or McDermott may be able to rebut that presumption.

In connection with the spin-off, we and a subsidiary of McDermott have entered into a tax sharing agreement pursuant to which we will agree to be responsible for certain liabilities and obligations following the spin-off. Under the terms of the tax sharing agreement, in the event that certain transactions related to the spin-off were to fail to qualify for tax-free treatment, we would generally be responsible for all of the tax imposed on us or McDermott and its subsidiaries resulting from such failure. However, if these related transactions were to fail to qualify for tax-free treatment because of actions or failures to act by McDermott or its subsidiaries, a subsidiary of McDermott would be responsible for all such tax. See “Relationship with McDermott After the Spin-Off—Agreements Between McDermott and Us—Tax Sharing Agreement.”

Under U.S. Treasury regulations, each McDermott stockholder who, immediately before the distribution, owns at least 5% of the total outstanding common stock of McDermott must attach to such stockholder’s U.S. federal income tax return for the year in which the spin-off occurs a statement setting forth certain information relating to the spin-off. In addition, all stockholders are required to retain permanent records relating to the amount, basis and fair market value of our stock which they receive and to make those records available to the IRS on request of the IRS.

THE FOREGOING IS A SUMMARY OF MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE SPIN-OFF UNDER CURRENT LAW AND IS FOR GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY. THE FOREGOING DOES NOT PURPORT TO ADDRESS ALL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OR TAX CONSEQUENCES THAT MAY ARISE UNDER THE TAX LAWS OF OTHER JURISDICTIONS OR THAT MAY APPLY TO PARTICULAR

47

CATEGORIES OF STOCKHOLDERS. EACH MCDERMOTT STOCKHOLDER SHOULD CONSULT ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR AS TO THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE SPIN-OFF TO SUCH STOCKHOLDER, INCLUDING THE APPLICATION OF U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND FOREIGN TAX LAWS, AND THE EFFECT OF POSSIBLE CHANGES IN TAX LAWS THAT MAY AFFECT THE TAX CONSEQUENCES DESCRIBED ABOVE.

Reason for Furnishing this Information Statement

This information statement is being furnished solely to provide information to McDermott stockholders who will receive shares of B&W common stock in the spin-off. It is not to be construed as an inducement or encouragement to buy or sell any of our securities or any McDermott securities. We believe that the information contained in this information statement is accurate as of the date set forth on the front cover. Changes may occur after that date and neither McDermott nor we undertake any obligation to update the information, except to the extent applicable securities laws require us to do so.

DIVIDEND POLICY

We do not currently plan to pay a regular dividend on our common stock following the spin-off. The declaration of any future cash dividends and, if declared, the amount of any such dividends, will be subject to our financial condition, earnings, capital requirements, financial covenants and other contractual restrictions and to the discretion of our board of directors. The credit agreement relating to our revolving credit facility includes restrictions on our ability to pay dividends. Our board of directors may take into account such matters as general business conditions, industry practice, our financial condition and performance, our future prospects, our cash needs and capital investment plans, income tax consequences, applicable law and such other factors as our board of directors may deem relevant. For a discussion of the covenants contained in our credit agreement, please see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

SELECTED HISTORICAL COMBINED FINANCIAL DATA

The following table presents our selected historical combined financial data. We derived the historical combined statement of operations information for each of the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, and the balance sheet information as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, from our audited combined financial statements included in this information statement. We derived the historical condensed combined statement of operations information for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, and the balance sheet information as of March 31, 2010 and 2009, from our unaudited condensed combined financial statements included in this information statement. We derived the historical combined statement of operations information for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the balance sheet information as of December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, from our unaudited combined financial statements not included in this information statement. The selected historical combined financial data reflects the effects of certain assets to be transferred to, and liabilities to be assumed by, McDermott in connection with the spin-off, and does not reflect the effects of certain liabilities to be assumed by, B&W in connection with the spin-off. See “Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Data.”

You should read the selected historical combined financial data in conjunction with our combined financial statements and the accompanying notes and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in this information statement. The financial information may not be indicative of our future performance and does not necessarily reflect what our financial position and results of operations would have been had we operated as an independent public company during the periods presented, including changes that will occur in our operations as a result of our spin-off from McDermott.

(1) Results for the year ended December 31, 2006 include approximately ten months for the principal operating subsidiaries of our Power Generation Systems segment, which were included in our results effective February 22, 2006. We did not include the results of operations of these entities in our financial statements from February 22, 2000 through February 22, 2006 due to the Chapter 11 proceedings involving several of our subsidiaries. On February 22, 2000, Babcock & Wilcox Power Generation Group, Inc. (formerly known as The Babcock & Wilcox Company) (“B&W PGG”) and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors”) filed a voluntary bankruptcy petition in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of New Orleans to reorganize under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors took this action as a means to determine and comprehensively resolve their asbestos liability as a result of asbestos-containing boilers and other products the Debtors sold, installed or serviced in prior decades. On February 22, 2000, the Debtors’ operations became subject to the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court. Because we lost control of the Debtors while their operations were subject to the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court, consistent with the requirements of ASC 810-10-15-10 (a), (1) (ii), we deconsolidated the results of the Debtors in our financial statements on February 22, 2000 and presented our investment in the Debtors on the cost basis of accounting. Subsequent to February 22, 2000, we wrote this investment down to zero as impaired. On February 22, 2006, the Debtors emerged from bankruptcy. The results of the Debtors were reconsolidated into our financial statements effective February 22, 2006 and for all periods after such date. We accounted for this reconsolidation in a manner similar to the acquisition of the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL DATA

The following unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2010 and the unaudited pro forma combined statements of income for the year ended December 31, 2009 and the three months ended March 31, 2010 are based on a combined reporting entity comprised of the assets and liabilities used in managing and operating the Power Generation Systems and Government Operations segments of McDermott and two captive insurance companies, which will be contributed to B&W in connection with the spin-off. See “Selected Historical Combined Financial Information.” This unaudited pro forma combined financial information should be read in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and the combined financial statements and the accompanying notes included in this information statement.

Our unaudited pro forma combined statements of income for the year ended December 31, 2009 and the three months ended March 31, 2010 include adjustments to give effect to:

• the deemed transfer by B&W to McDermott of certain assets that will not be held by B&W;

• the deemed assumption by B&W of certain liabilities that were previously liabilities of McDermott or other subsidiaries of McDermott; and

• the deemed assumption by McDermott or other subsidiaries of McDermott of certain liabilities that were previously liabilities of B&W;

in each case as if such transfers occurred on January 1, 2009. The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2010 includes adjustments to give effect to these deemed transactions as if they had occurred on March 31, 2010. The unaudited pro forma combined statements of income and balance sheet also give effect to the issuance by us to McDermott, in connection with certain transactions relating to the spin-off, of [            ] shares of our common stock, and the distribution of such shares to the holders of McDermott common stock.

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information set forth below is based on available information and assumptions that we believe are factually supportable. The information has been prepared on a combined basis using historical results of operations and bases of assets and liabilities of The Babcock & Wilcox Operations of McDermott International, Inc. and includes intercompany allocations of expenses. The costs to operate our business as an independent public entity may exceed the historical allocations of expenses related to areas that include, but are not limited to, litigation and other legal matters, compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and other corporate governance matters, insurance and claims management and the related cost of insurance, as well as general overall purchasing power. These possible increased costs are not included in the unaudited pro forma combined financial information, as their impact on our results of operations cannot be reasonably estimated. The unaudited pro forma combined financial information also does not reflect any significant changes that may occur after the spin-off in our financing plans and cost structure, including expenditures related to our growth initiatives.

The unaudited pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of our future performance or what our results of operations and financial position would have been if we had operated as an independent public company during the periods presented or if the transactions reflected in the pro forma adjustments had actually occurred as of the dates assumed.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Balance Sheet

(a) Reflects an estimated cash distribution by The Babcock & Wilcox Operations of McDermott International, Inc. to McDermott to maintain appropriate working capital and liquidity levels. The estimated cash distribution is based on a preliminary determination by the McDermott board of directors that resulted from its review of the McDermott consolidated cash position and the respective foreseeable working capital and liquidity requirements of B&W and McDermott following the spin-off. The amount will be finally determined by the McDermott board of directors, as a fixed amount, in connection with its final approval of the spin-off.

(b) Reflects asset and liabilities that will not be held by the Babcock & Wilcox Operations of McDermott International, Inc. after the spin-off, principally pension liabilities and property, plant and equipment that will be transferred to McDermott. The pension liabilities reflected in the pro forma adjustments are related to certain legacy employees of subsidiaries included in McDermott’s offshore oil and gas construction segment. In order to match this obligation with the appropriate group, the subsidiary with these liabilities has been transferred to McDermott in connection with the spin-off.

(c) Reflects the extinguishment or settlement of receivable and payable amounts with certain McDermott subsidiaries. All of the settlements of these receivable and payable amounts were in the form of the forgiveness of the amounts owed, with the exceptions being a cash payment totaling approximately $43 million that a Canadian subsidiary of McDermott made to a subsidiary of ours and the transfer of a $278 million promissory note and $43 million in cash from a subsidiary of ours to a subsidiary of McDermott.

(d) Reflects non-current tax liabilities of McDermott to be assumed by The Babcock & Wilcox Operations of McDermott International, Inc. in connection with the spin-off.

(e) Reflects the expected distribution of approximately [    ] million shares of B&W common stock and the reclassification of McDermott’s investment in our company to common stock in an amount equal to the aggregate par value of the shares of our common stock to be distributed in the spin-off, and the remainder to be capital in excess of par value.

Statements of Income

(f) Reflects the reduction of pension expense associated with pension plan assets and liabilities that will be transferred to a McDermott subsidiary as a result of the spin-off.

(g) Reflects the elimination of interest income and expense related to notes receivable and payable amounts with certain subsidiaries of McDermott that will be settled in connection with the spin-off.

(h) Reflects the income tax impacts of the adjustments described in (a) and (b) above and the balance sheet adjustments described above.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with “Selected Historical Combined Financial Information,” “Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Information” and the financial statements and accompanying notes appearing in this information statement. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.

General

In general, we operate in capital-intensive industries and rely on large contracts for a substantial amount of our revenues. We are currently exploring growth strategies across our segments through acquisitions to expand and complement our existing businesses. As we pursue these opportunities, we expect they would be funded by cash on hand, external financing (including debt), equity or some combination thereof.

Overview—Power Generation Systems

We expect the backlog of our Power Generation Systems segment of approximately $2.0 billion at March 31, 2010 to produce revenues of approximately $790 million in 2010, not including any change orders or new contracts that may be awarded during the year. Through this segment, we are actively bidding on and, in some cases, beginning preliminary work on projects that we expect will be awarded to us in 2010 subject to successful contract negotiations. These projects are not currently reflected in backlog. Our liquidity position for this segment remains strong, and we expect it to remain so throughout 2010.

Our Power Generation Systems segment’s overall activity depends mainly on the capital expenditures of electric power generating companies and other steam-using industries. This segment’s products and services are capital intensive. As such, customer demand is heavily affected by the variations in customers’ business cycles and by the overall economies of the countries in which they operate.

The recent worldwide credit and economic environment, as well as uncertainty regarding environmental regulations, has adversely affected the utility industry. We have experienced and expect to continue to experience delays or deferrals of proposed projects. For example, for the year ended December 31, 2009, our Power Generation Systems segment experienced a decline in revenues compared to 2008 and an overall slowdown in project awards. In light of current macroeconomic conditions, revenues from our Power Generation Systems segment may continue to decline in 2010.

According to the International Energy Agency, consumption of electricity worldwide is expected to nearly double in the next 25 years. While we cannot predict what impact potential future legislation and regulations concerning CO₂ and other emissions will have on our results of operations, it is possible such legislation could favorably impact the environmental retrofit and service businesses of our Power Generation Systems segment.

On June 26, 2009 the U.S. House of Representatives passed the American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009, H.R.2454, 111th Cong. 1st Sess. (commonly referred to as the “Waxman-Markey Bill”). This legislation

58

would require industry in the United States to reduce emissions of greenhouse gasses by the year 2050 by 83% from a baseline level of 2005. Other countries and certain states within the United States have also passed or are considering legislation to mitigate climate change by restricting the emissions of greenhouse gasses, while the EPA has initiated a rule-making process to reduce the emission of greenhouse gasses. It is unknown at this time whether or when the Waxman-Markey Bill or any similar legislation may become law. When using fossil fuels, our boiler products typically emit carbon dioxide. Were the Waxman-Markey Bill to become law, we believe that owners of power plants would respond first by reducing utilization rates and eventually by retiring fossil-fueled boilers. Future decisions to retire boilers would impact our business in a variety of ways, including the servicing and retrofitting of operating power plants. The need to replace retired generating capacity with cleaner technologies would also create business opportunities for us. To generate energy while minimizing the emission of greenhouse gasses, we are actively researching and developing a range of products, including:

• non-carbon technologies, such as nuclear power plants and solar receivers for concentrating solar power plants;

• low-carbon technologies that enable clean use of fossil fuels, such as oxy-fuel combustion and regenerable solvent absorption technologies to scrub carbon dioxide from exhaust gasses; and

• carbon-neutral technologies, such as biomass-fueled boilers and gasifiers, which use a renewable resource where the growing biomass re-absorbs the carbon dioxide emitted during energy production.

At this time, we cannot predict the timing or extent of additional limits on emissions of greenhouse gasses, nor their specific impacts on our business.

Overview—Government Operations

We expect the backlog of our Government Operations segment of approximately $2.8 billion at March 31, 2010 to produce revenues of approximately $730 million in 2010, not including any change orders or new contracts that may be awarded during the year. Our liquidity position for this segment remains strong, and we expect it to remain so throughout 2010.

The revenues of our Government Operations segment are largely a function of defense spending by the U.S. Government. As a supplier of major nuclear components for certain U.S. Government programs, we are a significant participant in the defense industry. With our specialized capabilities of full life-cycle management of special nuclear materials, facilities and technologies, our Government Operations segment is well-positioned to continue to participate in the continuing cleanup, operation and management of the nuclear sites and weapons complexes maintained by the DOE.

In December 2009, our subsidiary Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc., which we acquired in December 2008, implemented a suspension of some operations at its Erwin, Tennessee manufacturing facility while implementing organizational, facility and management changes to enhance safety controls and processes. We suspended the operations in consultation with the NRC following the occurrence of two separate incidents that we reported to the NRC in October and November 2009. The October 2009 incident involved the generation of excessive heat and a hazardous gas at a specialized cleaning station. The incident was caused by the processing of a small amount of uranium-aluminum material in nitric acid. This incident resulted in some damage to piping, but did not result in any injuries to personnel or offsite releases of chemical or radioactive material. The November 2009 incident involved a fire in a glovebox enclosure. The incident was caused by a reaction between fluorine gas in a cylinder of uranium and the fiberglass backing of the teflon lining of a vent hose attached to the cylinder within the glovebox enclosure. This incident resulted in damage to a hose and a faceplate within the glove box enclosure, but did not result in any injuries to personnel or offsite releases of chemical or radioactive material. Inspections conducted separately by the NRC, our existing nuclear liability underwriter and us revealed specific modifications necessary to improve Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc.’s overall safety performance. Although the NRC

59

did not issue any directive or order to us to suspend these operations, we believe the NRC likely would have done so had we not voluntarily suspended the operations. Although we were already in the process of implementing safety, cultural and procedural improvements at Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc., we have refined and accelerated those changes and have developed other specific enhancements in consultation with the NRC, as confirmed in the NRC’s January 7, 2010 confirmatory action letter to Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc.

The suspended operations include production operations, the commercial development line and the highly enriched uranium down blending facility. These operations are in the process of being brought back on line through a phased restart, which we commenced in March 2010 following completion of a third-party review and NRC review of the modifications that were implemented. The production operations are now fully operational. We began bringing the highly enriched uranium down-blending facility back on line, through a phased restart, in May 2010, and we expect that the facility will be fully operational in June 2010. We expect to bring the commercial development line back on line by the end of January 2011. There can be no assurance that we will not have to suspend our operations in the future to implement additional changes to enhance our safety controls and processes in order to comply with applicable laws and regulations.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s application of accounting policies. We believe the following are our most critical accounting policies that we apply in the preparation of our financial statements. These policies require our most difficult, subjective and complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain.

Contracts and Revenue Recognition. We determine the appropriate accounting method for each of our long-term contracts before work on the project begins. We generally recognize contract revenues and related costs on a percentage-of-completion method for individual contracts or combinations of contracts under the guidelines of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Topic Revenue Recognition. The use of this method is based on our experience and history of being able to prepare reasonably dependable estimates of the cost to complete our projects. Under this method, we recognize estimated contract revenue and resulting income based on costs incurred to date as a percentage of total estimated costs. Certain costs may be excluded from the cost-to-cost method of measuring progress, such as significant costs for materials and major third-party subcontractors, if it appears that such exclusion would result in a more meaningful measurement of actual contract progress and resulting periodic allocation of income. Total estimated costs, and resulting contract income, are affected by changes in the expected cost of materials and labor, productivity, scheduling and other factors. Additionally, external factors such as weather, customer requirements and other factors outside of our control may affect the progress and estimated cost of a project’s completion and, therefore, the timing of revenue and income recognition. We routinely review estimates related to our contracts, and revisions to profitability are reflected in the quarterly and annual earnings we report.

For contracts as to which we are unable to estimate the final profitability except to assure that no loss will ultimately be incurred, we recognize equal amounts of revenue and cost until the final results can be estimated more precisely. For these deferred profit recognition contracts, we recognize revenue and cost equally and only recognize gross margin when probable and reasonably estimable, which we generally determine to be when the contract is approximately 70% complete. We treat long-term construction contracts that contain such a level of risk and uncertainty that estimation of the final outcome is impractical except to assure that no loss will be incurred as deferred profit recognition contracts.

Fixed-price contracts are required to be accounted for under the completed-contract method if we are unable to reasonably forecast cost to complete at start-up. For example, if we have no experience in performing the type of work on a particular project and were unable to develop reasonably dependable estimates of total costs to complete, we would follow the completed-contract method of accounting for such projects. Our management’s policy is not to enter into fixed-price contracts without an accurate estimate of cost to complete. However, it is

60

possible that in the time between contract execution and the start of work on a project, we could lose confidence in our ability to forecast cost to complete based on intervening events, including, but not limited to, experience on similar projects, civil unrest, strikes and volatility in our expected costs. In such a situation, we would use the completed-contract method of accounting for that project. We did not enter into any contracts that we accounted for under the completed contract method during 2009, 2008 or 2007.

For all contracts, if a current estimate of total contract cost indicates a loss on a contract, the projected loss is recognized in full when determined.

Although we continually strive to improve our ability to estimate our contract costs and profitability, adjustments to overall contract costs due to unforeseen events could be significant in future periods. We recognize claims for extra work or for changes in scope of work in contract revenues, to the extent of costs incurred, when we believe collection is probable and can be reasonably estimated. We recognize income from contract change orders or claims when formally agreed with the customer. We reflect any amounts not collected as an adjustment to earnings. We regularly assess the collectibility of contract revenues and receivables from customers.

Property, Plant and Equipment. We carry our property, plant and equipment at depreciated cost, reduced by provisions to recognize economic impairment when we determine impairment has occurred. Factors that impact our determination of impairment include forecasted utilization of equipment and estimates of cash flow from projects to be performed in future periods. Our estimates of cash flow may differ from actual cash flow due to, among other things, technological changes, economic conditions or changes in operating performance. Any changes in such factors may negatively affect our business segments and result in future asset impairments.

We depreciate our property, plant and equipment using the straight-line method, over estimated economic useful lives of eight to 40 years for buildings and two to 28 years for machinery and equipment. We expense the costs of maintenance, repairs and renewals that do not materially prolong the useful life of an asset as we incur them.

Investments in Affiliates. We use the equity method of accounting for affiliates in which our investment ownership ranges from 20% to 50%, unless significant economic or governance considerations indicate that we are unable to exert significant influence, in which case the cost method is used. The equity method is also used for affiliates in which our investment ownership is greater than 50% but we do not have a controlling interest. Currently, all of our significant investments in affiliates that are not included in our combined results are recorded using the equity method. Affiliates in which our investment ownership is less than 20% and where we are unable to exert significant influence are carried at cost.

Self-Insurance. We have wholly owned insurance subsidiaries that provide employer’s liability, general and automotive liability and workers’ compensation insurance and, from time to time, builder’s risk insurance within certain limits to our companies. We may also have business reasons in the future to have these insurance subsidiaries accept other risks which we cannot or do not wish to transfer to outside insurance companies. When estimating our self insurance liabilities, we consider a number of factors, including historical claims experience and trend lines, projected growth patterns, inflation and exposure forecasts. The assumptions we make with respect to each of these factors represent our judgment as to the most probable cumulative impact of each factor on our future obligations. Our calculation of self insurance liabilities requires us to apply judgment to estimate the ultimate cost to settle reported claims and claims incurred but not yet reported as of the balance sheet date. We engage the services of an actuarial firm to assist us in the calculation of our liabilities for self insurance. While the actual outcome of insured claims could differ significantly from estimated amounts, these loss estimates and accruals recorded in our financial statements for claims have historically been reasonable in light of the actual amount of claims paid. Provisions for exposure to self insurance claims and the related payments of claims have historically not had a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows, and we do not expect these provisions to have a material impact on our self-insurance programs in the future.

61

Pension Plans and Postretirement Benefits. We estimate income or expense related to our pension and postretirement benefit plans based on actuarial assumptions, including assumptions regarding discount rates and expected returns on plan assets. We determine our discount rate based on a review of published financial data and discussions with our actuary regarding rates of return on high-quality, fixed-income investments currently available and expected to be available during the period to maturity of our pension obligations. Based on historical data and discussions with our actuary, we determine our expected return on plan assets based on the expected long-term rate of return on our plan assets and the market-related value of our plan assets. Changes in these assumptions can result in significant changes in our estimated pension income or expense and our combined financial condition. We revise our assumptions on an annual basis based upon changes in current interest rates, return on plan assets and the underlying demographics of our workforce. These assumptions are reasonably likely to change in future periods and may have a material impact on future earnings. Effective December 31, 2009, we adopted the disclosure provisions of FASB Topic 715, Compensation—Retirement Benefits. In accordance with this provision, we have disclosed additional information about our assets set aside to fund our pension and postretirement benefit obligations. See Note 7 to our combined financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 included in this information statement for information on our pension and postretirement benefit plans.

Loss Contingencies. We estimate liabilities for loss contingencies when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss is reasonably estimable. We provide disclosure when there is a reasonable possibility that the ultimate loss will exceed the recorded provision or if such loss is not reasonably estimable. We are currently involved in some significant litigation, as discussed in Note 9 to our combined financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 included in this information statement. We have accrued our estimates of the probable losses associated with these matters. However, our losses are typically resolved over long periods of time and are often difficult to estimate due to the possibility of multiple actions by third parties. Therefore, it is possible future earnings could be affected by changes in our estimates related to these matters.

Goodwill. FASB Topic Intangibles—Goodwill and Other, requires us to perform periodic testing for impairment. It requires a two-step impairment test to identify potential goodwill impairment and measure the amount of a goodwill impairment loss. The first step of the test compares the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test is performed to measure the amount of the impairment loss, if any. The second step compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. Each year, we evaluate goodwill at each reporting unit to assess recoverability, and impairments, if any, are recognized in earnings. An impairment loss would be recognized in an amount equal to the excess of the carrying amount of the goodwill over the implied fair value of the goodwill. We determined that both the income and market valuation approaches provide inputs into the estimate of the fair value of our reporting units, which would be considered by market participants. Under the income valuation approach, we employed a discounted cash flow model to estimate the fair value of each reporting unit. This model requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions regarding future revenues, costs, margins, capital expenditures, changes in working capital, terminal year growth rate and cost of capital. Our cash flow models are based on our forecasted results for the applicable reporting units. Actual results could differ from our projections. Under the market valuation approach, we employed the guideline publicly traded company method, which indicates the fair value of the equity of each reporting unit by comparing it to publicly traded companies in similar lines of business. After identifying and selecting guideline companies, we analyzed their business and financial profiles for relative similarity. Factors such as size, growth, risk and profitability were analyzed and compared to each of our reporting units. We have completed our annual review of goodwill for each of our segments as of December 31, 2009, which indicated that we had no impairment of goodwill. The fair value of our reporting units was substantially in excess of carrying value at December 31, 2009.

Asset Retirement Obligations and Environmental Clean-up Costs. We accrue for future decommissioning of our nuclear facilities that will permit the release of these facilities to unrestricted use at the end of each facility’s life, which is a requirement of our licenses from the NRC. In accordance with the FASB Topic Asset

62

Retirement and Environmental Obligations, we record the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred. In estimating fair value, we use present values of cash flows expected to be incurred in settling our obligations. To the extent possible, we perform a marketplace assessment of the cost and timing of performing the retirement activities. We apply a credit-adjusted risk-free interest rate to our expected cash flows in our determination of fair value. When we initially record such a liability, we capitalize a cost by increasing the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. Over time, the liability is accreted to its present value each period, and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the useful life of the related asset. Upon settlement of a liability, we will settle the obligation for its recorded amount or incur a gain or loss. This topic applies to environmental liabilities associated with assets that we currently operate and are obligated to remove from service. For environmental liabilities associated with assets that we no longer operate, we have accrued amounts based on the estimated costs of clean-up activities, net of the anticipated effect of any applicable cost-sharing arrangements. We adjust the estimated costs as further information develops or circumstances change. An exception to this accounting treatment relates to the work we perform for one facility for which the U.S. Government is obligated to pay all the decommissioning costs.

Deferred Taxes. We record a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. We believe that the deferred tax asset recorded as of December 31, 2009 is more likely than not realizable through carrybacks, future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences and future taxable income. If we were to subsequently determine that we would be able to realize deferred tax assets in the future in excess of our net recorded amount, an adjustment to deferred tax assets would increase earnings for the period in which such determination was made. We will continue to assess the adequacy of the valuation allowance on a quarterly basis. Any changes to our estimated valuation allowance could be material to our combined financial condition and results of operations. Effective January 1, 2007, we adopted the provision of FASB Topic Income Taxes.

Warranty. We account for warranty costs to satisfy contractual warranty requirements as an accrued estimated expense recognized in conjunction with the associated revenue on the related contracts for our Power Generation Systems and Government Operations segments. In addition, we make specific provisions where we expect the actual warranty costs to significantly exceed the accrued estimates. Factors that impact our estimate of warranty costs include prior history of warranty claims and our estimates of future costs of materials and labor. Our future warranty provisions may vary from what we have experienced in the past.

Stock-Based Compensation. We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with FASB Topic Compensation—Stock Compensation. Under the fair value recognition provisions of this statement, the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the awards, which is generally equivalent to the vesting term. We use a Black- Scholes model to determine the fair value of certain share-based awards, such as stock options. The use of a Black-Scholes model requires highly subjective assumptions, such as assumptions about the volatility of our stock price and our expected dividend yield.

Business Combinations. Effective January 1, 2009, we became subject to the provisions of the FASB Topic Business Combinations. This topic broadens the fair value measurements and recognition of assets acquired, liabilities assumed and interests transferred as a result of business combinations. It also provides disclosure requirements to assist users of the financial statements in evaluating the nature and financial effects of business combinations.

For further discussion of recently adopted accounting standards, see Note 1 to our combined financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 included in this information statement.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2010 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2009

The Babcock & Wilcox Operations of McDermott International, Inc. (Combined)

Revenues:

Combined revenues decreased approximately 16%, or $122.7 million, to $662.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to $785.1 million for the corresponding period in 2009 due to decreases in revenues from both of our business segments. Our Power Generation Systems segment experienced a 22% reduction in revenues largely attributable to reductions in our utility steam and system fabrication operations and fabrication repair and retrofit of existing facilities operations. Our Government Operations segment experienced a 1.5% reduction in revenues attributable primarily to lower volumes in the manufacture of components for a commercial uranium enrichment project and lower volumes in our commercial manufacturing operations.

Operating income including selling, general and administrative expenses, losses/gains on asset disposals and impairments-net, and equity in income of investees:

Combined operating income decreased $56.6 million to $38.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010 from $95.3 million for the corresponding period in 2009 due to reduced segment operating income in both of our segments. The operating income of our Power Generation Systems and Government Operations segments decreased $48.9 million and $9.8 million, respectively, in the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to the corresponding period of 2009. Our equity in income of investees, which is included in operating income, increased by $3.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to the corresponding period of 2009, primarily attributable to improvements in our joint venture in China. We experienced an increase in our combined selling, general and administrative expenses totaling $3.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to the corresponding period of 2009 attributable primarily to a $1.7 million increase in selling and marketing expense in the 2010 period compared to the corresponding period of 2009.

Other income (expense):

Interest income decreased $0.8 million to $0.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010, primarily due to decreases in average cash equivalents and investments and prevailing interest rates.

Interest expense increased $0.7 million to $6.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010, primarily due to interest expense on a note payable to an affiliate.

Other expense – net increased by $1.1 million to $3.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to foreign currency exchange losses.

Provision for income taxes:

For the three months ended March 31, 2010 our provision for income taxes decreased $22.4 million to $13.3 million, while income before provision for income taxes decreased $59.1 million to $30.1 million. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was approximately 44.02% as compared to 40.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2009. The rate increase was primarily attributable to a higher mix of U.S. earnings and losses in certain of our non-U.S. operations, which were benefited at lower rates.

64

Income before provision for income taxes, provision for income taxes and effective tax rates for our U.S. and non-U.S. jurisdictions were as shown below for the three months ended March 31:

	Income from Continuing Operations before Provision for Income Taxes					Provision for Income Taxes				Effective Tax Rate
	2010			2009		2010		2009		2010		2009
	(In thousands)					(In thousands)
United States	$	31,830		$	75,572	$	12,973	$	30,830	40.76	%	40.79	%
Non-United States		(1,718	)		13,674		283		4,880	(16.47	)%	35.69	%
Total	$	30,112		$	89,246	$	13,256	$	35,710	44.02	%	40.00	%

Power Generation Systems

Revenues decreased approximately 22%, or $118.9 million, to $409.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010, compared to $528.6 million for the corresponding period of 2009. This decrease was primarily attributable to a $61.6 million decrease in revenues from our utility steam and system fabrication operations and a $46.8 million decrease in revenues from our fabrication, repair and retrofit of existing facilities operations in the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to the corresponding period of 2009. The main driver for these decreases in revenues was a significant decrease in orders in 2009 compared to 2008, and particularly in the last six months of 2009. These reductions in orders booked followed a Federal Appeals Court’s overturning of the Clean Air Interstate Rule, the Clean Air Mercury Rule and the Industrial Boiler Rule on Maximum Achievable Control Technology. The overturning of these rules and regulations, along with the uncertainty concerning any new legislation or replacement rules or regulations, has caused many of our major customers, principally electric utilities, to delay making substantial capital expenditures for new plants, as well as upgrades to existing power plants. In addition, considerations surrounding greenhouse gas limits under consideration by the U.S. Congress and the EPA have delayed the construction of new coal-fired power plants in the United States. We currently believe, as the EPA finalizes the revised rules and regulations (which we anticipate may be released in final form by mid 2011), our U.S. customers will increase their expenditures on environmental equipment to bring their operating, coal-fired power plants into compliance with the new emissions limits. When the final EPA rules are released, we expect that our bookings from new environmental equipment for those existing plants will begin to increase with revenue and operating income to follow normal project cycles. It is also possible that some of our customers may elect to close down their least efficient coal-fired boilers, and, as a result, our revenues and operating income from upgrade and retrofit activities from those customers may decline. We also experienced lower revenues from our boiler auxiliary equipment operations ($15.5 million), our industrial boilers operations ($8.6 million), and our replacement parts operations ($8.4 million) in the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to the corresponding period of 2009. These decreases were partially offset by increased revenues from our nuclear service operations ($16.6 million), nuclear steam generator operations ($4.2 million), and field service operations ($2.4 million).

Operating income decreased $48.9 million to $9.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010, compared to $58.2 million in the corresponding period of 2009. This decrease was primarily attributable to lower margins in our utility steam and system fabrication operations and our fabrication, repair and retrofit of existing facilities operations, primarily attributable to the effects of timing on profitable projects completed in the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to the corresponding period of 2010 and to the decreases in revenues discussed above. We also experienced reductions in gross profit in our boiler auxiliary equipment and replacement parts operations totaling approximately $6.0 million in 2010 compared to the corresponding period of 2009, primarily attributable to the decreases in revenues discussed above. In addition, we experienced lower margins in our nuclear steam generator operations in the three months ended March 31, 2010, which included an additional provision for warranty obligations totaling approximately $3.7 million, compared to the corresponding period of 2009. We also experienced an increase in research and development expenses totaling approximately

65

$7.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to the corresponding period of 2009, primarily attributable to research and development activities associated with our B&W mPower^TM initiative. In addition, we experienced increases in our selling, general and administrative expenses totaling $5.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to the corresponding period of 2009. These adverse impacts on segment operating income were partially offset by improvements in our industrial boilers and nuclear service operations.

In addition, equity in income of investees increased $2.9 million from $1.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2009 to $4.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010, primarily attributable to our joint venture in China.

Government Operations

Revenues decreased approximately 1.5%, or $3.8 million, to $253.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to $257.1 million for the corresponding period of 2009, primarily attributable to lower volumes in the manufacture of components for a commercial uranium enrichment project ($20.1 million), and lower volumes in our commercial manufacturing operations ($9.2 million), substantially all of which was attributable to our Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc. subsidiary. These decreases were partially offset by increased volumes in the manufacture of nuclear components for certain U.S. Government programs and recovery work.

Operating income decreased $9.8 million to $36.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010, compared to $45.8 million for the corresponding period of 2009, primarily attributable to the shutdown at the Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc. facility. We suspended the operations in consultation with the NRC following the occurrence of two separate incidents that we reported to the NRC in October and November 2009. The October 2009 incident involved the generation of excessive heat and a hazardous gas at a specialized cleaning station. The incident was caused by the processing of a small amount of uranium-aluminum material in nitric acid. This incident resulted in some damage to piping, but did not result in any injuries to personnel or offsite releases of chemical or radioactive material. The November 2009 incident involved a fire in a glovebox enclosure. The incident was caused by a reaction between fluorine gas in a cylinder of uranium and the fiberglass backing of the teflon lining of a vent hose attached to the cylinder within the glovebox enclosure. This incident resulted in damage to a hose and a faceplate within the glove box enclosure, but did not result in any injuries to personnel or offsite releases of chemical or radioactive material. Inspections conducted separately by the NRC, our existing nuclear liability underwriter and us revealed specific modifications necessary to improve Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc.’s overall safety performance. The suspended operations include production operations, the commercial development line and the highly enriched uranium down-blending facility. These operations are in the process of being brought back on line through a phased restart, which we commenced in March 2010 following completion of a third-party review and NRC review of the modifications that were implemented. The production operations are now fully operational. We began bringing the highly enriched uranium down-blending facility back on line, through a phased restart, in May 2010, and we expect that the facility will be fully operational in June 2010. We expect to bring the commercial development line back on line by the end of January 2011. That line represented less than 0.5% of our combined revenues in 2009. The impact of the shutdown was approximately $9.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010. We also experienced lower contract productivity and lower volumes in the manufacture of components for a commercial uranium enrichment project in the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to the corresponding period of 2009. In addition, equity in income of investees increased $0.8 million to $9.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010, compared to $8.7 million in the corresponding period of 2009, primarily attributable to higher fees earned at two of our government sites, partially offset by increased expenses associated with one of our joint ventures in Tennessee.

Corporate

Unallocated corporate expenses decreased $2.1 million to $6.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $8.6 million for the corresponding period of 2009, primarily attributable to reduced compensation expense due to reductions in corporate headcount totaling $2.7 million and lower legal expenses incurred in the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to the corresponding period of 2009.

Year Ended December 31, 2009 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2008

The Babcock & Wilcox Operations of McDermott International, Inc. (Combined)

Revenues:

Combined revenues decreased approximately 16%, or $544.0 million, to $2.9 billion in the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to $3.4 billion in the year ended December 31, 2008. Our Power Generation Systems segment revenues decreased approximately 28% in the year ended December 31, 2009, as compared to 2008, primarily attributable to lower revenues in our utility steam and system fabrication operations and fabrication, repair and retrofit of existing facilities operations. Our Government Operations segment revenues increased approximately 21% in the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to 2008, primarily attributable to the acquisition of Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc.

Operating income including selling, general and administrative expenses, losses/gains on asset disposals and impairments—net, and equity in income of investees:

Combined operating income decreased $174.9 million from $444.5 million in 2008 to $269.6 million in 2009. Our Power Generation Systems segment operating income decreased by $157.5 million in the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to the year ended December 31, 2008, primarily attributable to the decrease in revenues discussed above. Our Government Operations segment operating income increased by $4.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2009, as compared to 2008, primarily attributable to higher volumes of manufacturing activity. We also experienced increases in selling, general and administrative expenses, which are included in operating income, totaling approximately $66.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to 2008, primarily attributable to a $14.4 million increase in selling and marketing expenses in 2009, and $36.3 million from our acquisition of Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc. Our equity in income of investees, which is included in operating income, increased $3.3 million to $55.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2009 primarily attributable to improved results from our Power Generation Systems segment’s joint venture in China. We also realized a decrease in gains on asset disposals in the year ended 2009 compared to 2008 attributable to a gain we recognized in 2008 on the sale of our former Dumbarton, Scotland facility.

Other income (expense):

Interest income decreased $11.9 million to $3.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to 2008, primarily due to decreases in average cash equivalents and investments and prevailing interest rates.

Interest expense increased $1.9 million in the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to 2008, primarily due to interest expense on a note payable to an affiliate, as discussed in Note 5 to our combined financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 included in this information statement.

Other expense—net increased $11.8 million to a loss of $16.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2009, primarily due to higher currency exchange losses in 2009.

Provision for income taxes:

For the year ended December 31, 2009, our provision for income taxes decreased $24.5 million to $84.4 million, while income before provision for income taxes decreased $200.4 million to $232.3 million. Our effective tax rate was approximately 36% for 2009, as compared to 25% for 2008. The increase in the effective rate was primarily attributable to non-recurring tax benefits which we recognized from the release of state valuation allowances and as a result of audit activity in 2008.

Total	$	232,301	$	432,739	$	84,381	$	108,885	36.32	%	25.16	%

We are subject to U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 35% on our U.S. operations plus the applicable state income taxes on our profitable U.S. subsidiaries. Our non-U.S. earnings are subject to tax at various tax rates and under various tax regimes, including deemed profits tax regimes.

During the year ended December 31, 2009, we recorded a reduction in liabilities under FASB Topic Income Taxes of approximately $5.4 million, including estimated tax-related interest and penalties.

See Note 4 to our combined financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 included in this information statement for further information on taxes.

Power Generation Systems

Revenues decreased approximately 28%, or $724.4 million, to $1,824.5 million in the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to $2,548.9 million in 2008. This decrease was primarily attributable to a 43% (or $491.9 million) decrease we experienced in revenues from our utility steam and system fabrication operations and decreased revenues in our fabrication, repair and retrofit of existing facilities operations ($171.1 million) in 2009. The main driver for these decreases in revenues was a significant decrease in orders booked starting in the final six months of 2008. These reductions in orders booked followed a Federal Appeals Court’s overturning of the Clean Air Interstate Rule, the Clean Air Mercury Rule and the Industrial Boiler Rule on Maximum Achievable Control Technology. The overturning of these rules and regulations, along with the uncertainty concerning any new legislation or replacement rules or regulations, has caused many of our major customers, principally electric utilities, to delay making substantial capital expenditures for new plants, as well as upgrades to existing power plants. In addition, considerations surrounding greenhouse gas limits under consideration by the U.S. Congress and the EPA have delayed the construction of new coal-fired power plants in the United States. We currently believe, as the EPA finalizes the revised rules and regulations (which we anticipate may be released in final form by mid 2011), our U.S. customers will increase their expenditures on environmental equipment to bring their operating, coal-fired power plants into compliance with the new emissions limits. When the final EPA rules are released, we expect that our bookings from new environmental equipment for those existing plants will begin to increase with revenue and operating income to follow normal project cycles. It is also possible that some of our customers may elect to close down their least efficient coal-fired boilers, and, as a result, our revenues and operating income from upgrade and retrofit activities from those customers may decline. We also experienced lower revenues in 2009 compared to 2008 in our replacement parts operations ($23.3 million), our industrial boilers operations ($16.9 million), our nuclear steam generator operations ($16.7 million) and our boiler auxiliary equipment operations ($13.8 million) due to reduced demand for electricity and lower capital expenditures by our customers. These decreases were partially offset by increased revenues from our operations and maintenance operations ($10.3 million) and nuclear service operations ($4.1 million).

Operating income decreased $157.5 million to $157.9 million in the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to $315.4 million in 2008, primarily attributable to lower volumes in our utility steam and system fabrication operations related to the decreases in revenues discussed above, and a bonus on a contract completed in 2008, for a total reduction of $65.4 million in gross profit. In addition, we experienced lower gross profits in our fabrication, repair and retrofit of existing facilities operations and in our replacement parts operations, which

68

were also primarily attributable to the decreases in revenues discussed above. We also experienced lower margins and volume in our nuclear steam generator operations. The lower margins in our nuclear steam generator operations were attributable primarily to increased contract costs on the manufacture and delivery of two replacement once through steam generators, and our lower volumes were attributable to the decrease in revenues discussed above. In addition, we incurred an increase in our pension plan expense totaling approximately $40.2 million in 2009 compared to 2008, primarily from the amortization of losses on our pension plan incurred in 2008. We also experienced an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses totaling approximately $19.1 million in 2009 compared to 2008, primarily attributable to an increase of approximately $11 million in selling and marketing expenses in 2009 compared to 2008. These decreases were partially offset by improved margins in our utility steam and system fabrication operations and our fabrication, repair and retrofit of existing facilities operations primarily attributable to contract cost improvements and the completion of projects in 2009, as well as higher volumes in our operations and maintenance operations attributable to the increase in revenues discussed above. Gains (losses) on asset disposals and impairments—net decreased $9.9 million in the year ended December 31, 2009, primarily attributable to the gain we recognized in 2008 on the sale of our former Dumbarton, Scotland facility. Equity in income of investees increased $3.6 million to $14.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to $10.4 million in 2008, primarily attributable to our joint venture in China.

Government Operations

Revenues increased approximately 21%, or $181.0 million, to $1,032.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to $851.0 million in 2008, primarily attributable to our acquisition of Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc. ($160.7 million) and additional volumes in the manufacture of nuclear components for certain U.S. Government programs and recovery work ($20.7 million). These improvements were partially offset by lower volumes in the manufacture of components for a commercial uranium enrichment project, engineering and laboratory services and lower revenues from our management and operating contracts at several government sites.

Operating income increased $4.3 million to $154.5 million in the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to $150.2 million in 2008, primarily attributable to additional volumes in the manufacture of nuclear components for certain U.S. Government programs and recovery work, and our acquisition of Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc., which contributed $3.3 million of segment operating income. These improvements were partially offset by increased pension expense of $39.5 million in 2009 compared to 2008 from the amortization of losses on our pension plan assets in 2008. In addition, we experienced lower volumes related to a commercial uranium enrichment project and lower revenues from our management and operating contracts at several government sites.

Corporate

Unallocated corporate expenses increased $21.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2009 to $42.8 million from $21.1 million in 2008, primarily attributable to increased pension plan expense of $16.3 million in 2009 compared to 2008 from the amortization of losses on pension plan assets experienced in 2008. We also experienced an increase in information technology expenses in the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to 2008.

Year Ended December 31, 2008 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2007

The Babcock & Wilcox Operations of McDermott International, Inc. (Combined)

Revenues:

Combined revenues increased approximately 6%, or $198.6 million, to $3.4 billion in the year ended December 31, 2008, compared to $3.2 billion in the year ended December 31, 2007. Our Power Generation Systems segment revenues increased approximately 2% in the year ended December 31, 2008, as compared to 2007. Our Government Operations segment revenues increased approximately 23% in the year ended December 31, 2008, compared to 2007, primarily attributable to higher volumes in the manufacture of nuclear components for certain U.S. Government programs and for a commercial uranium enrichment project.

69

Operating income including selling, general and administrative expenses, losses/gains on asset disposals and impairments—net, and equity in income of investees:

Combined operating income increased $106.9 million from $337.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2007 to $444.5 million in 2008. Our Power Generation Systems segment operating income increased by $81.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2008, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2007, primarily attributable to favorable cost improvements on a significant number of its projects. Our Government Operations segment operating income increased by $27.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2008, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2007, primarily attributable to the higher volumes of manufacturing activity described above. We experienced an increase in losses (gains) on asset disposals and impairments—net, included in operating income, totaling net gains of $8.0 million in 2009 compared to 2008 primarily from a gain we recognized on the sale of our former Dumbarton, Scotland facility. Our equity in income of investees, which is included in operating income, increased by $6.2 million in 2009 compared to 2008 primarily attributable to improved results in our joint ventures in Idaho, Tennessee and Louisiana, partially offset by lower results from our joint venture in China attributable to higher costs for materials. Our combined selling, general and administrative expenses increased $48.0 million in 2008 to $337.6 million compared to $289.6 million in 2007 primarily attributable to information technology expense, support services for our utility steam and system fabrication operations and fabrication, repair and retrofit of existing facilities operations and increased selling and marketing expenses.

Other income (expense):

Interest income decreased $9.9 million to $15.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2008, primarily due to a decrease in average cash equivalents and investments and prevailing interest rates.

Interest expense decreased $15.4 million to $22.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2008, primarily due to interest during the year ended December 31, 2007 on the B&W PGG term loan that was terminated in April 2007 and lower amortization and costs under our credit facilities.

Other expense—net decreased $6.1 million to $4.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2008, primarily due to a provision for bad debt expense recorded during 2007.

Provision for income taxes:

For the year ended December 31, 2008, our provision for income taxes increased $9.9 million to $108.9 million, while income before provision for income taxes increased $118.4 million to $432.7 million. Our effective tax rate was approximately 25% for the year ended December 31, 2008, as compared to 32% for the year ended December 31, 2007. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily attributable to certain tax assets and benefits totaling approximately $61.8 million, which we recognized in 2008 from the release of state valuation allowances and as a result of audit activity.

Income before provision for income taxes, provision for income taxes and effective tax rates for our U.S. and non-U.S. jurisdictions were as shown below:

	Income from Continuing Operations before Provision for Income Taxes				Provision for Income Taxes				Effective Tax Rate

We are subject to U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 35% on our U.S. operations plus the applicable state income taxes on our profitable U.S. subsidiaries. Our non-U.S. earnings are subject to tax at various tax rates and under various tax regimes, including deemed profits tax regimes.

Power Generation Systems

Revenues increased approximately 2%, or $42.1 million, to $2,548.9 million in the year ended December 31, 2008, compared to $2,506.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2007. In 2008, we experienced a 23% increase in revenues from our fabrication, repair and retrofit of existing facilities operations (or $127.2 million), primarily resulting from increases in orders booked in 2007 and timing of scheduled activities on projects throughout 2008. In addition, we experienced increases in our nuclear service operations ($58.3 million), boiler auxiliary equipment operations ($22.3 million), industrial boilers operations ($17.2 million) and replacement parts operations ($12.9 million), primarily resulting from timing of scheduled activities on projects. These increases were partially offset by decreased revenues from our utility steam and system fabrication operations ($206.5 million), due primarily to the absence in 2008 of approximately $178 million in revenues recognized from our termination and settlement agreement executed with TXU Corp. (“TXU”) on the cancellation of five contracts to supply TXU supercritical, coal-fired boilers and selective catalytic reduction systems.

Operating income increased $81.3 million to $315.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2008, compared to $234.1 million in 2007, primarily attributable to improved margins in our utility steam and system fabrication operations and increased volume and margins in our fabrication, repair and retrofit of existing facilities and replacement parts operations. These increased margins were largely the result of favorable cost improvements on a significant number of our projects and a bonus award of approximately $13 million on a contract we completed in 2008. In addition, we experienced increased volumes in our nuclear service operations. We also experienced an approximately $11 million decrease in our pension plan expense in 2008 compared to 2007, attributable to an improvement in the performance of our pension plan assets in 2008. Partially offsetting these increases were lower volumes and margins in our replacement nuclear steam generator operations and lower margins in our nuclear service operations. We also experienced $21.0 million in higher selling, general and administrative expenses (net of pension expense), including higher stock-based compensation expense totaling $2.9 million, in the year ended December 31, 2008. Gains (losses) on asset disposals and impairments—net increased $9.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, primarily attributable to the gain we recognized in 2008 on the sale of our former Dumbarton, Scotland facility. Equity in income from investees decreased $3.9 million to $10.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, primarily attributable to cost increases for materials at our joint venture in China.

Government Operations

Revenues increased approximately 23%, or $157.0 million, to $851.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2008 compared to $694.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2007, primarily attributable to higher volumes in the manufacture of nuclear components for certain U.S. Government programs ($61.0 million), including increased contract procurement activities and additional volumes from Marine Mechanical Corporation, which we acquired in May 2007. In addition, we experienced higher volumes in the manufacture of nuclear components for a commercial uranium enrichment project ($79.5 million) and higher revenues in our management and operating (“M&O”) contracts.

Operating income increased $27.3 million to $150.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2008 compared to $122.9 million in 2007, primarily attributable to the higher volumes in the manufacture of nuclear components for certain U.S. Government programs discussed above. In addition, we experienced higher volumes related to the commercial uranium enrichment project referenced above. We also experienced an approximately $12.3 million decrease in our pension expense in 2008 compared to 2007, attributable to an improvement in the performance of our pension plan assets in 2008. These improvements were partially offset by the completion of a

71

subcontract at a DOE clean-up site in Ohio during 2007 and the completion of M&O contracts at certain government sites. We also experienced higher selling, general and administrative expenses totaling approximately $14.0 million in 2008 compared to 2007, primarily due to increased bid and proposal costs. Gains on asset disposals and impairments—net decreased by $1.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2008, attributable to the gain we recorded on the sale of our investment in a research and development venture during the year ended December 31, 2007. Equity in income from investees increased $10.1 million to $41.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2008 compared to $31.3 million in 2007, primarily attributable to increased profitability from our joint ventures in Idaho, Tennessee and Louisiana.

Corporate

Unallocated corporate expenses increased $1.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2008 to $21.1 million from $19.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2007, primarily attributable to increased departmental expenses and higher expenses associated with our development of a global human resources management system. These increases were partially offset by lower pension plan expense in the year ended December 31, 2008.

Effects of Inflation and Changing Prices

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, using historical U.S. dollar accounting (“historical cost”). Statements based on historical cost, however, do not adequately reflect the cumulative effect of increasing costs and changes in the purchasing power of the dollar, especially during times of significant and continued inflation.

In order to minimize the potential negative impact of inflation on our operations, we attempt to cover the increased cost of anticipated changes in labor, material and service costs, either through an estimate of those changes, which we reflect in the original price, or through price escalation clauses in our contracts.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our overall liquidity position, which we generally define as our unrestricted cash and investments plus amounts available for borrowings under our credit facility, continued to remain strong in 2009. Our liquidity position at December 31, 2009 increased by approximately $147 million to $820 million from December 31, 2008, mainly due to factors discussed below in connection with the changes in our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities. We experienced an increase in cash generated from our operating activities in 2009 compared to 2008. The major components of our net cash provided by operating activities were improvements in our net contracts in progress and advance billings components of working capital, improvement in our accounts receivable position, and lower funding of our pension plans. In some years, significant liquidity has been provided by our advance billings on contracts in progress, as a result of payments received from customers. As our customer cash advances are used in project execution and are not replaced by advances on new projects, our liquidity position is reduced. We experienced this condition in the year ended December 31, 2008, when we realized a use of cash from net contracts in progress and advance billings totaling approximately $234 million.

Our overall liquidity position decreased by approximately $60 million to $760 million at March 31, 2010 compared to $820 million at December 31, 2009. This decrease was largely attributable to our cash used in operating and investing activities. We experienced an increased use of cash from our net contracts in progress and advance billings components of working capital and from our pension liability, accumulated postretirement benefit obligation and accrued employee benefits in the three months ended March 31, 2010. We also experienced an increased use of cash in investing activities for capital expenditures and an acquisition in the three months ended March 31, 2010.

2010 Credit Facility

On May 3, 2010, Babcock & Wilcox Investment Company (“BWICO”), one of our affiliates, entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with a syndicate of lenders and letter of credit issuers and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent.

The Credit Agreement replaced the prior $400.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility of B&W PGG and the prior $135.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility of our subsidiary BWX Technologies, Inc. (“BWXT”). All amounts outstanding under B&W PGG’s and BWXT’s previous senior revolving credit facilities have been repaid, and all letters of credit outstanding under those prior credit facilities are now deemed issued under the Credit Agreement. BWICO is the initial borrower under the Credit Agreement. Upon completion of the spin-off, B&W will become the borrower under the Credit Agreement and BWICO, as a subsidiary of B&W, will become a guarantor under the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement provides for revolving credit borrowings and issuances of letters of credit in an aggregate outstanding amount of up to $700.0 million, and the credit facility is scheduled to mature on May 3, 2014. The proceeds of the Credit Agreement are available for working capital needs and other general corporate purposes. As of May 3, 2010, BWICO had no outstanding borrowings and approximately $255.3 million of outstanding letters of credit under the Credit Agreement, leaving BWICO with approximately $444.7 million available capacity for additional borrowings and letters of credit under the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement includes procedures for additional financial institutions to become lenders, or for any existing lender to increase its commitment thereunder, subject to an aggregate maximum of $850.0 million for all revolving loan and letter of credit commitments under the Credit Agreement.

BWICO’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by substantially all of BWICO’s wholly owned domestic subsidiaries. Upon completion of the spin-off, substantially all of B&W’s wholly owned domestic subsidiaries that are not already guarantors under the BWICO Credit Agreement will become guarantors. Obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by first-priority liens on certain assets owned by BWICO and the guarantors (other than BWXT and its subsidiaries). Upon completion of the spin-off, B&W and its wholly owned domestic subsidiaries that become guarantors under the Credit Agreement will grant liens on certain assets owned by them. If the corporate rating of B&W and its subsidiaries from Moody’s is Baa3 or better (with a stable outlook or better), the corporate family rating of B&W and its subsidiaries from S&P is BBB- or better (with a stable outlook or better), and certain other conditions are met, the liens securing obligations under the Credit Agreement will be released, subject to reinstatement upon the terms set forth in the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement requires only interest payments on a quarterly basis until maturity. The borrower under the Credit Agreement may prepay all loans under the Credit Agreement at any time without premium or penalty (other than customary LIBOR breakage costs), subject to certain notice requirements.

Loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement bear interest at the borrower’s option at either the Eurodollar rate plus a margin ranging from 2.50% to 3.50% per year or the base rate (the highest of the Federal Funds rate plus 0.50%, the 30-day Eurodollar rate plus 1.0%, or the administrative agent’s prime rate) plus a margin ranging from 1.50% to 2.50% per year. The applicable margin for revolving loans varies depending on the credit ratings of the Credit Agreement. The borrower under the Credit Agreement is charged a commitment fee on the unused portions of the Credit Agreement, and that fee varies between 0.375% and 0.625% per year depending on the credit ratings of the Credit Agreement. Additionally, the borrower under the Credit Agreement is charged a letter of credit fee of between 2.50% and 3.50% per year with respect to the amount of each financial letter of credit issued under the Credit Agreement and a letter of credit fee of between 1.25% and 1.75% per year with respect to the amount of each performance letter of credit issued under the Credit Agreement, in each case depending on the credit ratings of the Credit Agreement. The borrower under the Credit Agreement also pays customary issuance fees and other fees and expenses in connection with the issuance of letters of credit under the Credit Agreement.

73

In connection with entering into the Credit Agreement, BWICO paid certain upfront fees to the lenders thereunder, and BWICO paid certain arrangement and other fees to the arrangers and agents of the Credit Agreement.

Based on the current credit ratings of the Credit Agreement, the applicable margin for Eurodollar-rate loans is 2.50%, the applicable margin for base-rate loans is 1.50%, the letter of credit fee for financial letters of credit is 2.50%, the letter of credit fee for performance letters of credit is 1.25%, and the commitment fee for unused portions of the Credit Agreement is 0.375%. The Credit Agreement does not have a floor for the base rate or the Eurodollar rate.

The Credit Agreement includes financial covenants that will be tested on a quarterly basis, based on the rolling four-quarter period that ends on the last day of each fiscal quarter, commencing with the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2010. The maximum permitted leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) is 2.50 to 1.00. The minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) is 4.00 to 1.00.

In addition, the Credit Agreement contains various covenants that, among other restrictions, limit BWICO’s and its subsidiaries’ (and after the spin-off, B&W’s and its subsidiaries’) ability to:

• incur or assume indebtedness;

• grant or assume liens;

• make acquisitions or engage in mergers;

• sell, transfer, assign or convey assets;

• make investments;

• repurchase equity and make dividends and certain other restricted payments;

• change the nature of its business;

• engage in transactions with affiliates;

• enter into certain burdensome agreements;

• enter into speculative hedging contracts;

• enter into sale and leaseback transactions;

• make capital expenditures; and

• prior to the completion of the spin-off, change certain terms of the spin-off described in the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement generally includes customary events of default for a secured credit facility. If an event of default relating to bankruptcy or other insolvency events with respect to the borrower occurs under the Credit Agreement, all obligations under the Credit Agreement will immediately become due and payable. If any other event of default exists under the Credit Agreement, the lenders may accelerate the maturity of the obligations outstanding under the Credit Agreement and exercise other rights and remedies. In addition, if any event of default exists under the Credit Agreement, the lenders may commence foreclosure or other actions against the collateral under the Credit Agreement.

If any default occurs under the Credit Agreement, or if the borrower is unable to make any of the representations and warranties in the Credit Agreement, the borrower will be unable to borrow funds or have letters of credit issued under the Credit Agreement.

Power Generation Systems

Bank Guarantees (Foreign Operations)

Certain foreign subsidiaries of B&W PGG had credit arrangements with various commercial banks for the issuance of bank guarantees. The aggregate value of all such bank guarantees as of March 31, 2010 was $16.8 million.

Surety Bonds

MII, B&W PGG and another subsidiary of ours have jointly executed general agreements of indemnity in favor of various surety underwriters relating to surety bonds those underwriters issued in support of B&W PGG’s contracting activity. As of March 31, 2010, bonds issued under such arrangements totaled approximately $112.9 million. Any claim successfully asserted against any such surety by one or more of the bond obligees would likely be recoverable from MII, B&W PGG and our other subsidiary under such indemnity agreement (and we have agreed to indemnify MII from and against any such recovery from it). Due to events that affect the insurance and bonding and credit markets generally, bonding and letters of credit may be more difficult to obtain in the future or may only be available at significant additional cost. There can be no assurance that letters of credit or bonds will continue to be available to us on reasonable terms, particularly given our pro forma tangible net worth as of March 31, 2010.

Based on the liquidity position of our Power Generation Systems segment, we believe this segment has sufficient cash and letter of credit and borrowing capacity to fund its operating requirements for at least the next 12 months.

Warranty Claim (Power Generation Systems Segment)

One of our Canadian subsidiaries has received notice of a warranty claim on one of its projects on a contract executed in 1998. This situation relates to a condition referred to as “tube fretting,” which results in tube wear as a result of relative movement of the tube at the point of contact with the tube support plates within a nuclear steam generator. Data collection and analysis can only be performed at specific time periods when the power plant is scheduled to be off-line for maintenance. We also received a notice from the customer during October 2008, and, during November 2008, we responded to the notice by disagreeing with the matters stated in the claim and disputing the claim. This project included a limited-term performance bond totaling approximately $140 million for which we entered into an indemnity arrangement with the surety underwriters. It is possible that our subsidiary may incur warranty costs in excess of amounts provided for as of March 31, 2010. It is also possible that a claim could be initiated by our subsidiary’s customer against the surety underwriter should certain events occur. If such a claim were successful, the surety could seek to recover from our subsidiary the costs incurred in satisfying the customer claim. If the surety seeks recovery from our subsidiary, we believe that our subsidiary would have adequate liquidity to satisfy its obligations. However, the ultimate resolution of this possible claim is uncertain, and an adverse outcome could have a material adverse impact on our combined financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Government Operations

Letters of Credit (Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc.)

At March 31, 2010, Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc., a subsidiary of BWXT, had $3.6 million in letters of credit issued by various commercial banks on its behalf. The obligations to the commercial banks issuing such letters of credit are secured by cash, short-term certificates of deposit and certain real and intangible assets.

Based on the liquidity position of our Government Operations segment, we believe this segment has sufficient cash and letter of credit and borrowing capacity to fund its operating requirements for at least the next 12 months.

Pension Plan

We recorded a $36.9 million reduction in parent equity at December 31, 2009, compared to a reduction of $325.8 million in parent equity at December 31, 2008. The substantial reduction at December 31, 2008 was primarily attributable to the volatility of the stock market in 2008. While the performance of our pension assets improved in 2009, the reduction in the discount rate for our major domestic plans from 6.25% to 6.00% increased our pension plan obligations, resulting in a net reduction in equity at December 31, 2009. As of December 31, 2009, our defined benefit pension and post-retirement benefit plans were underfunded by approximately $869 million. See Note 7 to the combined financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 included in this information statement. A significant portion of those obligations is subject to cost recovery from the U.S. Government under contracts relating to operations that we have been involved in for many years. While we do not consider it likely, if those contracts with the U.S. Government were terminated, the amount and timing of our recovery for pension and other post-retirement benefit plans could be impacted. For a general discussion of our contracts with the U.S. Government, see “Business—Contracts.”

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investments

At March 31, 2010, we had restricted cash and cash equivalents totaling $17.8 million, $9.7 million of which was held in restricted foreign accounts, $3.8 million of which was held as cash collateral for letters of credit, $4.0 million of which was held for future decommissioning of facilities and $0.3 million of which was held to meet reinsurance reserve requirements of our captive insurance companies. It is possible that a significant portion of restricted cash at March 31, 2010 will not be released within the next 12 months.

At March 31, 2010, we had investments with a fair value of $70.9 million. Our investment portfolio consists primarily of investments in government obligations and other highly liquid money market instruments.

March 31, 2010 Compared to December 31, 2009

In aggregate, our cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents and investments decreased by $68.4 million to $489.9 million at March 31, 2010 from $558.3 million at December 31, 2009, primarily due to cash used in operating activities and purchases of property, plant and equipment.

Our working capital, excluding cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents, decreased by $57.2 million to a negative $470.4 million at March 31, 2010 from a negative $413.2 million at December 31, 2009, primarily due to the increase in the net amount of contracts in progress and advance billings on contracts.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2010 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2009

Our net cash used in operations was $45.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010, compared to cash provided by operations of $40.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009. This change was primarily attributable to a decrease in our net contracts in progress and advance billings on contracts and our accounts payable position.

Our net cash used in investing activities increased by $25.8 million to $26.8 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010 from $1.0 million in the corresponding period of 2009. This increase in net cash used in investing activities was primarily attributable to acquisitions in the three months ended March 31, 2010 and a decrease in proceeds from the sale of available securities in the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to the corresponding period of 2009.

Our net cash provided by financing activities increased by $6.5 million to $1.8 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010 from $4.7 million used in financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2009.

76

This change was primarily attributable to payments on long-term debt made in the three months ended March 31, 2009 and higher excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation in the three months ended March 31, 2010.

December 31, 2009 Compared to December 31, 2008

In aggregate, our cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents and investments increased by approximately $152.5 million to $558.3 million at December 31, 2009 from $405.8 million at December 31, 2008, primarily due to (1) cash provided by operations related primarily to our improvements in accounts receivables and reduced funding requirements under our pension plans, and (2) proceeds from the sale of available for sale securities.

Our working capital, excluding cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents, decreased by approximately $36.4 million to a negative $413.2 million at December 31, 2009 from a negative $376.8 million at December 31, 2008, primarily due to increases in accrued employee benefits.

Year Ended December 31, 2009 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2008

Our net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $252.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to approximately $60.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2008. This increase was primarily attributable to improvements in our accounts receivable position and reduced funding requirements under our pension plans in 2009 compared to 2008.

Our net cash used in investing activities decreased by approximately $237.0 million to approximately $67.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2009 from approximately $304.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2008. This decrease in net cash used in investing activities was primarily attributable to higher funding requirements for acquisitions of businesses in 2008 compared to 2009, and an increase in proceeds from the sale of available-for-sale securities in 2009.

Our net cash provided by (used in) financing activities changed by approximately $65.6 million to net cash used in financing activities of $5.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2009 from net cash provided by financing activities of $60.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2008, primarily due to an increase in borrowings in 2008 on a note payable to an affiliate (see Note 5 to our combined financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 included in this information statement).

Contractual Obligations

Our cash requirements as of December 31, 2009 under current contractual obligations are as follows:

	Total		Less than 1 Year		1-3 Years		3-5 Years		After 5 Years
	(In thousands)
Long-term debt principal	$	7,588	$	3,366	$	4,222		—	—
Operating leases	$	14,821	$	5,577	$	6,916	$	2,328	—

We have excluded notes payable to affiliates aggregating approximately $320.5 million from the table above as those notes will be extinguished or settled in connection with the spin-off. In addition, we have excluded $3.1 million of short-term line of credit borrowings made by one of our subsidiaries, as there is no stated contractual payment date. We have included this amount in notes payable and current maturities of long-term debt on our combined balance sheets. This facility is renewable annually and the interest rate associated with this line of credit was 5.3% per annum at December 31, 2009.

In addition to the contractual obligations summarized above, on May 25, 2010, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with USEC Inc. (“USEC”) and Toshiba Corporation (“Toshiba”), pursuant to which we and

77

Toshiba have each agreed to make a phased strategic investment in USEC of up to $100 million. Our investment is to be made over three phases, each of which is subject to satisfaction of specific preconditions, including regulatory approvals. USEC is a leading supplier of enriched uranium for commercial nuclear power plants. USEC will use the proceeds from our investment for general corporate purposes and for investment in its American Centrifuge Project, a next-generation uranium enrichment facility to be built in Piketon, Ohio. The project is based on the use of highly efficient centrifuges to produce enriched uranium. USEC is currently operating a group of centrifuge machines in a commercial plant configuration, collecting data and experience in preparation for transitioning to full commercial operation. We provide significant products and services to USEC in connection with the American Centrifuge Project, and we have entered into a memorandum of understanding to form a joint venture with USEC to manufacture and assemble the centrifuge machine for the project. Each of the three phases of investment is contingent on USEC meeting specified milestones in arranging and obtaining at least $2 billion in funding under the DOE’s loan guarantee program for front-end nuclear facilities. We anticipate making our first investment, in the amount of $37.5 million, in the third quarter of 2010, which we intend to fund using cash on hand or cash generated by our operating activities.

Our contingent commitments under letters of credit and bank guarantees currently outstanding expire as follows:

Total	Less than 1 Year		1-3 Years		3-5 Years		After 5 Years
			(In thousands)
$377,004	$	231,247	$	131,439	$	14,128	$	190

We expect cash requirements totaling approximately $58 million for contributions to our pension plans and $15 million for contributions to our other postretirement benefit plans in 2010.

In accordance with the provisions of FASB Topic Income Taxes, we have recorded a $15.5 million liability as of December 31, 2009 for unrecognized tax benefits and the payment of related interest and penalties. Due to the uncertainties related to these tax matters, we are unable to make a reasonably reliable estimate as to when cash settlement with a taxing authority will occur. However, we do not anticipate making any cash payments on these liabilities over the next 12 months.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our exposure to market risk from changes in interest rates relates primarily to our cash equivalents and our investment portfolio, which primarily consists of investments in U.S. Government obligations and highly liquid money market instruments denominated in U.S. dollars. We are averse to principal loss and seek to ensure the safety and preservation of our invested funds by limiting default risk, market risk and reinvestment risk. All our investments in debt securities are classified as available-for-sale.

We have exposure to changes in interest rates applicable to borrowings under our revolving credit facility (see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources”). We have no material future earnings or cash flow exposures from changes in interest rates on our other long-term debt obligations, as substantially all of these obligations have fixed interest rates.

We have operations in foreign locations, and, as a result, our financial results could be affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in those foreign markets. In order to manage the risks associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, we attempt to hedge those risks with foreign currency derivative instruments. Historically, we have hedged those risks with foreign currency forward contracts. We have recently hedged some of those risks with foreign currency option contracts. We do not enter into speculative derivative positions.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

The following tables provide information about our financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. The tables present principal cash flows and related weighted-average interest rates by expected maturity dates.

BUSINESS

Overview

B&W is currently a wholly owned subsidiary of McDermott. B&W is a successor to a business founded in 1867, which was acquired by McDermott in 1978. Following the spin-off, B&W will be an independent, publicly traded company. McDermott will not retain any ownership interest in B&W. B&W’s assets and businesses primarily consist of those that McDermott reports as its Power Generation Systems and Government Operations segments in its financial statements. We participate in the ownership of a variety of entities with third parties, primarily through corporations, limited liability companies and partnerships, which we refer to as “joint ventures.”

B&W is a leading technology innovator in power generation systems, a specialty manufacturer of nuclear components and a premier service provider in its segments, with an operating history of more than 140 years. We provide a variety of products and services to customers in the power and other steam-using industries, including electric utilities and other power generators, industrial customers in various other industries, and the U.S. Government. We operate in two business segments: Power Generation Systems and Government Operations. Through our Power Generation Systems segment, we design, engineer, manufacture, supply, construct and maintain power generation systems and environmental control systems, primarily for large utility and industrial customers, and we provide related aftermarket parts and services. Through our Government Operations segment, we manufacture nuclear components and provide various services to the U.S. Government, including uranium processing, environmental site restoration services, and management and operating services for various U.S. Government-owned facilities. These services are provided to the DOE, including the NNSA, the Office of Nuclear Energy, the Office of Science and the Office of Environmental Management.

Our Government Operations segment manages and operates nuclear facilities and associated plant infrastructure; manufactures components and assembles/dismantles nuclear devices; constructs large capital facilities; provides safeguards and security for inventory and assets; supports and conducts research and development for advanced energy technology; and manages the environmental programs for the DOE and the NNSA through joint ventures. We employ approximately 13,000 people worldwide, not including approximately 10,000 joint venture employees.

The main drivers for our businesses are:

• demand for electricity, paper and other end products of steam-generating facilities;

• fossil and nuclear plant life cycles and the frequency with which plants need to replace or upgrade components;

• requirements for environmental improvements, including those imposed by legislative and regulatory developments aimed at reducing emissions of mercury, nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, particulate matter, carbon dioxide and other environmental pollutants from power plants;

• requirements for plant efficiency improvements and improvements in reliability;

• levels of funding for the dismantlement and life extension for nuclear/non-nuclear components, research and development of energy technologies, and environmental restoration services we provide to the DOE, other federal agencies and commercial clients; and

• levels of demand for other products and services to the U.S. Government.

For the year ended December 31, 2009, we generated revenues of approximately $2.9 billion and operating income of approximately $270 million. For the year ended December 31, 2008, we generated revenues of approximately $3.4 billion and operating income of approximately $444.5 million. For financial information about our business segments, see Notes 1 and 14 to our combined financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 included in this information statement, which presents revenue, operating income, depreciation and amortization expense and capital expenditures for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 and identifiable assets and goodwill by business segment as of December 31, 2009 and 2008.

81

In February 2000, several of B&W’s subsidiaries filed for voluntary Chapter 11 protection, due to mounting asbestos-related claims tied to asbestos-containing commercial and utility boilers and other products they sold, installed or serviced in prior decades. From the date of the filing of the Chapter 11 petition until their emergence from Chapter 11 in 2006, McDermott treated those subsidiaries as deconsolidated subsidiaries for financial reporting purposes. The final settlement with representatives of asbestos claimants in the Chapter 11 proceedings, which was effected in a plan of reorganization consummated as of February 22, 2006, involved McDermott’s and B&W’s contribution of rights under various insurance policies, cash and a promissory note, with an aggregate value of approximately $2 billion, to a settlement trust, the channeling of asbestos-related personal injury claims to that trust and McDermott’s retention of the ownership of the B&W subsidiaries involved in the Chapter 11 proceedings.

Our Competitive Strengths

Leading Market Positions

We are a proven leader in the design, engineering, manufacture, supply, construction and maintenance of steam generating and environmental equipment for power providers in the United States and in other parts of the world. As of March 31, 2010, our power generation systems and equipment supplied more than 300,000 MW of installed capacity in more than 800 utilities in over 90 countries. This extensive experience with steam generating equipment has helped us establish a leading position in the replacement nuclear steam generator market in the United States and worldwide, including replacement of units originally manufactured by other suppliers. We manufacture nuclear and non-nuclear components; manage, operate and maintain large government-owned facilities; and deliver major capital construction and environmental projects for the DOE and NNSA. We have received a number of industry awards recognizing our leadership position, technical innovation and customer service, including the National Safety Council’s Occupational Excellence Achievement Award (Y-12), the 2009 National Safety Council Industry Leader Award (Y-12), DOE/NNSA Pollution Prevention (P2) Award (Pantex and Y-12), Closing the Circle Awards (recognizes federal facilities and employees for innovative practices and programs that have improved environmental performance and conditions at federal sites), Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award given by the President of the United States (DynMcDermott for management and operation of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve), and Occupational Hazards Magazine Award (Pantex named to the 2007 list of America’s Safest Companies). For our Power Generation Systems operations, Power Engineering magazine named Wisconsin Public Service Co.’s new Weston 4 project the “Best Coal-Fired Project of the Year for 2008.” The boiler and air quality control systems for this 530 MW supercritical unit were designed, supplied and erected by our Power Generation Systems segment.

Investments in Advanced Technologies

We have invested in advanced technologies, through both research and development and our knowledge-centered technical professionals, to meet the challenge of growing power generation demand for energy sources that are lower pollutant emitting sources, or sources that have lower carbon footprints, fitting broadly into the category of “clean energy.” Our “clean energy” technologies under development include carbon capture systems for coal-fired power plants; technologies for the development of higher efficiency coal-utilization systems to reduce emissions; technology to enable a greater use of biomass fuels for power generation; nuclear energy; and solar power generation technology.

We have built a new research center, rehabilitated a 30 MW pilot plant for oxy-combustion technology testing and built a new pilot plant for the development of solvent-based carbon dioxide capture systems for retrofit applications to existing power plants. One carbon capture technology we are developing with a third party, oxy-combustion, has been advanced through laboratory and pilot plant testing. We have applied for funding from the DOE to move this technology into a scale-plant phase. We intend to begin extensive field tests on our solvent-based carbon dioxide capture systems late in 2010 or early in 2011. We have also established a bubbling fluidized bed combustion technology for use in converting biomass fuels to thermal energy in accordance with environmental performance criteria. B&W has installed an advanced solar receiver in California

82

at a client-owned, concentrating solar power testing site to further validate this new technology on a commercial scale. This solar thermal power plant technology uses small, flat mirrors that track the sun and reflect the sun’s heat to B&W’s receiver, which boils water to create steam. This steam powers a traditional turbine and generator to produce clean electricity.

We are currently pursuing the development of several nuclear technologies with programs that include the development of advanced nuclear fuel for high temperature gas-cooled reactors; the supply of reactor fuels for university and other research programs; the development of aqueous reactor technology to support the production of medical isotopes for use in nuclear medicine imaging tests; and the design and development of the B&W mPower™ reactor, a modular, scalable nuclear steam supply system.

Proven Track Record

We have served the global power industry for over 140 years. We have a rich history and a legacy of “industry firsts.” We designed and installed the first utility boiler, and we developed the first supercritical boiler. We also have a history of developing new products to meet changing regulations and mandates. We designed and built the first limestone-based wet scrubber for sulfur dioxide control. In addition to our history of leadership in the fossil-fuel-fired boiler market, we have been involved in the field of nuclear power for more than 50 years, providing nuclear heat exchangers, nuclear plant services and more than 300 nuclear steam generators to customers around the world. We manufactured the reactor for the first nuclear ship, the NS Savannah. We have also been supplying nuclear power components to the U.S. Government since the 1955-launching of the U.S.S. Nautilus, the world’s first nuclear-powered vessel.

High Quality Manufacturing Facilities

We operate a network of 13 major manufacturing facilities around the world. Our Government Operations segment’s facilities are equipped with advanced, state-of-the-art equipment and capable of performing highly complex manufacturing operations. These facilities include the only two commercial facilities that have Category I licenses from the NRC, which enable us to own, store and process both high and low enriched uranium. We have performed work under the auspices of the International Atomic Energy Agency. Our Power Generation Systems segment has factories in North America, Europe and Asia equipped to provide products and services to power plants. Three of our manufacturing facilities are accredited with the American Society of Mechanical Engineers Nuclear Component Certification, or “ASME N-Stamp.” Only a small number of North American suppliers of large, heavy walled nuclear components and vessels have this certification.

Demonstrated Success with Large Delivered and Erected Projects

We have demonstrated success in executing large, delivered and erected projects, both at new power plants and as retrofits at existing facilities. We specialize in heavy mechanical erection and maintenance of equipment for steam generation and environmental improvement. Since 2000, we have erected more than 50 major pieces of equipment at units with electric generating capacity exceeding 39,000 MW. For those customers who purchase our combined design-build offering, we utilize proven project execution processes and provide single-point accountability for our scope throughout the execution of the project. Leveraging our engineer-to-construct design experience early in the life of a project optimizes constructability, resulting in lower costs and improved certainty of schedule. Our successful experience with modular fabrication and assembly can increase safety, improve quality, reduce field labor costs and shorten project span time.

83

Diversified and Strong Client Base

We have a broad customer base, consisting of a wide range of utilities, independent power producers and businesses in various other industries around the world, as well as the U.S. Government, our largest customer. In 2009, in addition to the U.S. Government, other major customers included:

•   Allegheny Energy, Inc.	•   FirstEnergy Corp.
•   American Electric Power Company, Inc.	•   Public Service Company of New Mexico
•   Bruce Power, L.P.	•   United States Enrichment Corporation

In 2009, only two customers represented, individually, over five percent of our combined revenue.

Experienced Management Team

Our management team boasts a wealth of industry experience and a history of working together as a cohesive team. This substantial experience has allowed our management to develop the knowledge and skills necessary to manage highly complex manufacturing and project management operations.

Highly Qualified Employees

We have a large number of scientists, engineers, technicians and other highly skilled employees involved in all aspects of our business operations. A large percentage of our salaried employees have college degrees in technical areas. In our Government Operations segment, a substantial number of our employees have security clearances from the NRC, the DOE and/or the U.S. Department of Defense, and have developed the experience necessary to meet the challenges associated with handling and processing highly enriched nuclear material. We provide regular, ongoing training to our employees, and we believe that maintaining high skill levels is a source of pride for our employees.

Our Business Strategies

Pursue Growth Opportunities in the Conventional Power Generation Market

We intend to pursue growth opportunities in the fossil power generation market and to expand our operational presence in regions around the world where we expect to see continuing growth and increasing needs for service. We believe significant growth opportunities exist as a result of many factors, including:

• economic growth, particularly in emerging economies, where we expect demand for new power generation capacity to continue to rise as economic recovery continues;

• continued development of environmental regulation and concern, which we expect to continue to drive demand for cleaner power generation technologies, as well as environmental control systems and other devices that abate emissions from existing plants;

• increasing demand for refurbishment and maintenance of aging plants, which, in addition to the requirements of increasing environmental regulation, is being driven by the desire of power producers to reduce operating costs, enhance operating efficiency, improve reliability and extend the useful lives of their existing plants;

• the continuing effects of past deregulation and liberalization initiatives relating to electricity markets in the United States, which has led to increased competition, which, in turn, has driven demand for installation of generation equipment designed to increase efficiency and reduce costs, as well as to make plants more environmentally friendly; and

• the need for more complete solutions for owners of power facilities, including engineer-procure-construct commercial arrangements and operations and maintenance services.

Leverage our Experience and Knowledge in the Nuclear Power Market to Pursue Opportunities from Renewed Interest in Nuclear Technology

Since the 1950s, we have supplied the nuclear industry with more than 1,300 large heavy components worldwide. With ASME N-Stamp certified manufacturing operations in both the U.S. and Canada, we have the skills, knowledge base and infrastructure for engineering and fabricating pressure vessels, reactors, steam generators, heat exchangers and electro-mechanical devices. We intend to leverage our extensive experience in designing, engineering, manufacturing, constructing and servicing nuclear power equipment to pursue growth opportunities in the market for nuclear technology. Technical and safety improvements related to nuclear reactors have resulted in a renewed interest in nuclear technology as a substitute for fossil and other fuels. We believe this nuclear technology “renaissance” also stems from the recognition that nuclear power is likely to play an important role in establishing global energy security in the 21st century. Public opinion, in the United States and elsewhere, regarding the merits of nuclear energy production, has improved over the past decade. This improvement has been attributable to, among other things, advances in nuclear reactor design to improve operational safety and reliability.

Among other opportunities in the nuclear power industry, we are developing the B&W mPower™ reactor, a modular nuclear reactor designed to provide scalability to build plants ranging from 125 MW to 1,000 MW of electric generating capacity (in increments of 125 MW) for a four- to five-year operating cycle without refueling. We intend to seek NRC certification of the B&W mPower™ reactor in time to begin deploying this technology as early as 2020.

We are developing, in conjunction with a unit of Covidien PLC and the DOE, a homogenous aqueous phase reactor to supply medical isotopes for use in nuclear medicine imaging tests. The reactor uses low-enriched fuel to address the U.S. Government nuclear non-proliferation mandate associated with the current medical isotope supply chain. We are currently in the licensing phase with the NRC and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and have received grant funding from the DOE to accelerate the project.

Continue to Serve the Nuclear Power Needs of the U.S. Government

For more than five decades, we have established a solid reputation as a trusted supplier to U.S. Government defense programs. In support of these programs, we intend to continue processing special nuclear materials and providing precision manufactured nuclear components.

Continue to Diversify our Business Portfolio into Clean Energy Technologies

We intend to continue to diversify our business portfolio into clean energy technologies by investing in research and development of clean energy technologies, including the advancement of those technologies we already have under development and the development of new technologies. Development of B&W’s clean energy portfolio is focused on modular nuclear reactors, carbon capture from fossil combustion, biomass and energy-from-waste plants and concentrated solar plants. Commercialization to clean energy solutions involves active B&W initiatives ranging from continuing research, to field deployment to new commercial offerings in our backlog.

Continue Leveraging our Successes in Managing and Operating DOE Sites to Grow our Business within the DOE Complex and in Other Markets

Over the past six decades, the DOE has developed one of the largest government-owned operations in the United States, with responsibility for research, development, testing, operations and production of nuclear devices and a variety of nuclear-related research programs. We have been actively engaged in assisting the DOE in these activities, principally through various management and operations services as well as highly complicated decontamination and decommissioning activities at operational and former weapons production sites. We believe that our core competencies and our experience, expertise and longstanding relationships with customers, including

85

the NNSA, the Office of Nuclear Energy, the Office of Science and the Office of Environmental Management, position us to grow our business within the DOE complex. Additionally, although we have not been successful in recent years in our efforts to expand our management and operations activities outside the DOE complex, we believe this expertise should provide a platform to seek contracts from other U.S. and foreign government agencies to manage and operate similar facilities and production operations and to support specialized and classified component manufacturing, facility and infrastructure improvement and environmental restoration projects.

Maintain our Commitment to Safety

We are committed to promoting a safe workplace. We value the health and safety of each employee, and we seek to provide each of our employees with a workplace that is free of accidents and injuries. Through our Target Zero safety process, we are dedicated to preventing accidents and their associated costs by averting, eliminating or mitigating unsafe acts and conditions, and by responding properly to natural disasters and emergency situations. We are implementing a Human Performance Initiative to provide our employees with an additional set of tools and improvements designed to reduce human error and improve workplace safety. We believe that this initiative will promote behaviors throughout our organization that support safe and reliable operations. A safe work environment benefits our employees, our customers and our business partners and is a key element to our future success.

Drive Operational Excellence to Continually Support Profitable Growth

We use a continuous improvement process methodology in our operations designed to enhance productivity and increase customer satisfaction through industry-proven methodologies.

Selectively Pursue Acquisitions

Our management team has demonstrated its ability to identify complementary business acquisition opportunities, consummate acquisitions on favorable terms and integrate acquired businesses. We will continue to evaluate potential acquisitions, with the aim of increasing earnings while maintaining financial discipline.

Maintain Financial Flexibility

We intend to maintain financial flexibility through our access to various liquidity sources. As of the distribution date, we anticipate having access to liquidity from several sources, including our revolving credit facility with a borrowing and letter of credit capacity of up to $700 million.

Power Generation Systems

Our Power Generation Systems segment includes the business and operations of Babcock & Wilcox Power Generation Group, Inc. (“B&W PGG”) and Babcock & Wilcox Nuclear Energy, Inc. and their respective subsidiaries. Through this segment, we supply boilers fired with fossil fuels, such as coal, oil and natural gas, or renewable fuels such as biomass, municipal solid waste and concentrated solar energy. In addition, we supply commercial nuclear steam generators and components, environmental equipment and components, and related services to customers in different regions around the world. We design, engineer, manufacture, construct and service large utility and industrial power generation systems, including boilers used to generate steam in electric power plants, pulp and paper making, chemical and process applications and other industrial uses.

Through this segment, we have served the global power industry for over 140 years. We have a rich history and a legacy of “industry firsts.” These include:

• the introduction of the first commercial, supercritical pressure steam cycle unit—the universal pressure boiler (1957);

• the manufacture of the reactor for the world’s first commercial nuclear vessel, the NS Savannah (1961);

86

• the receipt of the first order for the design and supply of nuclear steam generators for a Canadian deuterium uranium, or CANDU, plant (1965);

• the installation of the first wet flue gas desulfurization system (1973);

• the introduction of the world’s largest dry scrubbing system (1982);

• the design and construction of the world’s largest waste-to-energy facility (1989);

• the erection of a universal pressure boiler and wet scrubber at the William H. Zimmer station, which was the first commercial nuclear plant to be converted to a coal-fired plant and the world’s largest single-boiler emission control system (1991);

• the receipt of the first order in the industry for once-through-design replacement nuclear steam generators (1999);

• the completion of a 550 MW boiler replacement in world-record time—less than 22 months—and two large selective catalytic reduction systems for a major Northeastern United States utility (2001); and

• the operation of the first coal-fired 30 MWt oxy-combustion system, to concentrate carbon dioxide, as a step to abate emissions of greenhouse gases (2008).

The following table sets forth the location and principal use of this segment’s operating facilities that we own or lease.

This segment also has administrative offices and a research and development facility in Barberton, Ohio, administrative offices in Lynchburg, Virginia (leased through 2011) and a warehouse/service center in Copley, Ohio. Our Power Generation Systems segment has access to the Government Operations segment’s manufacturing facilities in Barberton, Ohio, Euclid, Ohio and Mount Vernon, Indiana for the manufacture of commercial nuclear components.

Through our manufacturing facilities, we specialize in the fabrication of products used in the power generation industry and various other industries and the provision of related services, including:

• heavy-pressure equipment for energy conversion, such as boilers fueled by coal, oil, bitumen, natural gas, solid municipal waste, biomass and other fuels;

• environmental control systems, including both wet and dry scrubbers for flue gas desulfurization, modules for selective catalytic reduction of the oxides of nitrogen, equipment to capture particulate matter, such as fabric-filter baghouses and wet and dry electrostatic precipitators, and similar devices;

• engineered-to-order services, products and systems for energy conversion worldwide and related auxiliary equipment, such as burners, pulverizers, soot blowers and ash handling systems;

87

• steam generators, heat exchangers, reactor vessel closure heads and electromechanical devices for commercial nuclear power plants; and

• power plant equipment and related heavy mechanical erection services.

We support operating plants with a wide variety of additional services, including the installation of new systems and replacement parts, engineering services, construction, maintenance and field technical services, such as condition assessments and inventory services to help customers respond quickly to plant interruptions. Our wide range of construction and installation services include erection of utility and industrial boiler plants, installations of cogeneration facilities and installations of pollution control equipment, such as selective catalytic reduction systems and flue gas desulfurization scrubbers. We also provide power through cogeneration, refuse-fueled power plants and other independent power-producing facilities and participate in this market as contractors for engineer-procure-construct services, as equipment suppliers, as operations and maintenance contractors and as an owner.

Although it has been over 30 years since a new nuclear power plant commenced construction in the United States, we expect to participate in commercial nuclear projects and related opportunities in the future. Among our opportunities in the nuclear power industry, we are developing the B&W mPower™ reactor, a small modular reactor designed with the flexibility to provide between 125 MW to 1,000 MW of electrical power generation (in increments of 125 MW), and the capability to operate for a four- to five-year operating cycle without refueling. We intend to seek NRC certification of the B&W mPower™ reactor in time to begin deploying this technology as early as 2020. We intend to build the nuclear reactor modules in our manufacturing facilities and transport them to customer sites for installation. The modular and scalable design of the B&W mPower™ reactor should allow us to match the generation needs of our customers with the proven performance of existing light water reactor technology. We believe the B&W mPower™ reactor will reduce risks associated with deploying nuclear power and become a flexible, cost-effective solution for increasing electricity needs.

Our Power Generation Systems segment’s overall activity depends mainly on the capital expenditures of electric power generating companies and other steam-using industries. Several factors influence these expenditures, including:

• prices for electricity, along with the cost of production and distribution;

• prices for coal and natural gas and other sources used to produce electricity;

• the demand for electricity, paper and other end products of steam-generating facilities;

• the availability of other sources of electricity, paper or other end products;

• requirements for environmental improvements;

• the impact of potential regional, state, national and/or global requirements to significantly limit or reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the future;

• levels of capacity utilization at operating power plants, paper mills and other steam-using facilities;

• requirements for maintenance and upkeep at operating power plants and paper mills to combat the accumulated effects of wear and tear;

• the ability of electric generating companies and other steam users to raise capital; and

• total costs of electricity production using boilers compared to total costs using gas turbines and other alternative forms of generation.

Our Power Generation Systems segment’s products and services are capital intensive. As such, customer demand is heavily affected by the variations in our customers’ business cycles and by the overall economies of the countries in which they operate.

88

Government Operations

Our Government Operations segment includes the business and operations of Babcock & Wilcox Nuclear Operations Group, Inc., Babcock & Wilcox Technical Services Group, Inc. and their respective subsidiaries. Through this segment, we manufacture nuclear components and provide various services to the U.S. Government, including uranium processing, environmental site restoration services, and management and operating services for various U.S. Government-owned facilities. These services are provided to the DOE, including the NNSA, the Office of Nuclear Energy, the Office of Science and the Office of Environmental Management.

We have over 50 years of experience in the ownership and operation of large nuclear development, production and reactor facilities. This segment’s principal operations include:

Lynchburg, Virginia	Manufacturing	Owned
Barberton, Ohio	Manufacturing	Owned
Euclid, Ohio	Manufacturing	Owned / Leased(1)
Mount Vernon, Indiana	Manufacturing	Owned
Erwin, Tennessee	Manufacturing	Owned

  (1) We acquired the Euclid facilities through a bond/lease transaction facilitated by the Cleveland Cuyahoga County Port Authority (the “Port”), whereby we acquired a ground parcel and the Port issued bonds, the proceeds of which were used to acquire, improve and equip the facilities, including the acquisition of a larger facility and a 40-year prepaid ground lease for a smaller facility. We are leasing the facilities from the Port with an expiration date of 2014, subject to certain extension options.

In addition, we lease (through 2011) administrative offices in Lynchburg, Virginia.

Through this segment’s manufacturing facilities, we specialize in the design and manufacture of close-tolerance and high-quality equipment for nuclear applications. In addition, we are a leading manufacturer of critical nuclear components, fuels and assemblies for government and commercial uses. We have supplied nuclear components for DOE programs since the 1950s, and we are the largest domestic supplier of research reactor fuel elements for colleges, universities and national laboratories. We also convert or downblend high-enriched uranium into low-enriched fuel for use in commercial reactors to generate electricity. In addition, we have over 100 years of experience in supplying heavy fabrications for industrial use, including components for defense applications.

We work closely with the DOE supported non-proliferation program. Currently, this program is assisting in the development of a high-density, low-enriched uranium fuel required for high-enriched uranium test reactor conversions. We have also been a leader in the receipt, storage, characterization, dissolution, recovery and purification of a variety of uranium-bearing materials. All phases of uranium downblending and uranium recovery are provided at our Lynchburg, Virginia and Erwin, Tennessee sites.

89

We manage and operate complex, high-consequence nuclear and national security operations for the DOE and the NNSA, primarily through our joint ventures. In addition to these joint ventures, Babcock & Wilcox Technical Services Clinch River, LLC was awarded a contract from USEC, Inc. in 2007 to manufacture classified metal parts for the American Centrifuge Program.

We have an experienced staff of design and manufacturing engineers capable of performing full scope, prototype design work coupled with manufacturing integration. The design, engineering and other capabilities of our Government Operations segment include:

• steam separation equipment design and development;

• thermal-hydraulic design of reactor plant components;

• structural component design for precision manufacturing;

• materials expertise in high-strength, low-alloy steels and nickel-based materials;

• material procurement of tubing, forgings and weld wire; and

• metallographic and chemical analysis.

Our Government Operations segment’s operations are generally capital intensive on the manufacturing side. The demand for nuclear components by the U.S. Government determines a substantial portion of this segment’s backlog. We expect that orders for nuclear components will continue to be a significant part of backlog for the foreseeable future; however, such orders are subject to defense department budget constraints.

Acquisitions

The following is a brief description of some of our recent acquisitions:

Marine Mechanical Corporation. In May 2007, our Government Operations segment completed its acquisition of Marine Mechanical Corporation, which designs, manufactures and supplies electro-mechanical equipment used by the U.S. Government. This business complements our other government-related nuclear activities.

The Intech Group of Companies. On July 15, 2008, our Power Generation Systems segment completed its acquisition of the Intech group of companies (“Intech”). Intech consists of Intech, Inc., Ivey-Cooper Services, L.L.C. and Intech International Inc. Intech, Inc. provides nuclear inspection and maintenance services, primarily for the U.S. market.

We continue to evaluate accelerated growth opportunities achievable through acquisition or consolidation, in addition to pursuing internal growth strategies.

Contracts

We execute our contracts through a variety of methods, including fixed-price, cost-plus and cost-reimbursable or some combination of those methods. Contracts are usually awarded through a competitive bid process, primarily based on price. However, other factors that customers may consider include plant or equipment availability, technical capabilities of equipment and personnel, efficiency, safety record and reputation.

Fixed-price contracts are for a fixed amount to cover all costs and any profit element for a defined scope of work. Fixed-price contracts entail more risk to us because they require us to predetermine both the quantities of work to be performed and the costs associated with executing the work.

We have contracts that extend beyond one year. Most of our long-term contracts have provisions for progress payments. We attempt to cover anticipated increases in labor, material and service costs of our long-term contracts either through an estimate of such charges, which is reflected in the original price, or through risk-sharing mechanisms, such as escalation or price adjustments for items such as labor and commodity prices.

We generally recognize our contract revenues and related costs on a percentage-of-completion basis. Accordingly, we review contract price and cost estimates periodically as the work progresses and reflect adjustments in profit proportionate to the percentage of completion in the period when we revise those estimates. To the extent that these adjustments result in a reduction or an elimination of previously reported profits with respect to a project, we would recognize a charge against current earnings, which could be material.

Many of our contracts with the U.S. Government are subject to annual funding determinations. In addition, contracts between the U.S. Government and its prime contractors usually contain standard provisions for termination at the convenience of the U.S. Government or the prime contractor. The contracts for the management and operation of U.S. Government facilities are awarded through a complex and protracted procurement process. These contracts are generally structured as five-year contracts with five-year renewal options, which are exercisable by the customer, or include provisions whereby the contract duration can be extended as a result of superior performance. These are cost-reimbursement contracts with a U.S. Government credit line with little corporate-funded working capital required. These contracts include a fee primarily based on performance, which is evaluated annually. As a U.S. Government contractor, we are subject to federal regulations under which our right to receive future awards of new federal contracts would be unilaterally suspended or barred if we were convicted of a crime or indicted based on allegations of a violation of specific federal statutes. In addition, some of our contracts with the U.S. Government require us to provide advance

91

notice in connection with any contemplated sale or shut down of the relevant facility. In each of those situations, the U.S. Government has an exclusive right to negotiate a mutually acceptable purchase of the facility.

Our arrangements with customers frequently require us to provide letters of credit, bid and performance bonds or guarantees to secure bids or performance under contracts. While these letters of credit, bonds and guarantees may involve significant dollar amounts, historically, there have been no material payments to our customers under these arrangements.

In the event of a contract deferral or cancellation, we generally would be entitled to recover costs incurred, settlement expenses and profit on work completed prior to deferral or termination. Significant or numerous cancellations could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Backlog

Backlog represents the dollar amount of revenue we expect to recognize in the future from contracts awarded and in progress. Not all of our expected revenue from a contract award is recorded in backlog for a variety of reasons, including projects awarded and completed within the same fiscal quarter.

Backlog is not a measure defined by generally accepted accounting principles, and our methodology for determining backlog may not be comparable to the methodology used by other companies in determining their backlog amounts. Backlog may not be indicative of future operating results, and projects in our backlog may be cancelled, modified or otherwise altered by customers.

We generally include expected revenue of contracts in our backlog when we receive written confirmation from our customers. We generally do not include expected revenue of contracts related to our joint ventures in our backlog.

Our backlog at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 was as follows:

	March 31, 2010				December 31, 2009
	(Dollars in millions)
Power Generation Systems	$	1,969	41	%	$	1,974	42	%
Government Operations		2,783	59	%		2,766	58	%
Total Backlog	$	4,752	100	%	$	4,740	100	%

Of the March 31, 2010 backlog, we expect to recognize revenues as follows:

	2010		2011		Thereafter
	(In millions)
Power Generation Systems	$	790	$	540	$	639
Government Operations		730		770		1,283
Total Backlog	$	1,520	$	1,310	$	1,922

As of March 31, 2010, our backlog with the U.S. Government, primarily attributable to our Government Operations segment, was $2.8 billion (of which $35 million had not yet been funded), or approximately 59% of our total combined backlog. We do not include the value of our management and operating contracts in backlog.

During the year ended December 31, 2009, the U.S. Government awarded new orders of approximately $0.8 billion to us, primarily in our Government Operations segment. New awards from the U.S. Government are typically received by our Government Operations segment during the fourth quarter of each year.

92

We believe the current worldwide credit and economic environment and short-term uncertainty regarding environmental regulations has affected our customers in the electric utility industry more than our other customers. While we have not experienced significant delays on existing projects in our Power Generation Systems’ backlog, we have experienced increasing delays in expected bookings on new planned projects.

Our Government Operations segment generates substantially all of its revenues from customers within the United States. Our Power Generations Systems segment revenues, net of intersegment revenues, and income derived from operations located outside of the United States, as well as the approximate percentages of our total combined revenues and total combined segment income, respectively, for each of the last three years were as follows (dollars in thousands):

	Revenues				Segment Income
	Amount		Percent of Total Combined		Amount		Percent of Total Combined
Year ended December 31, 2009	$	483,408	17	%	$	72,311	23	%
Year ended December 31, 2008	$	526,080	15	%	$	72,197	15	%
Year ended December 31, 2007	$	411,459	13	%	$	49,122	14	%

For additional information on the geographic distribution of our revenues, see Note 14 to our combined financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 included in this information statement.

Customers

We provide our products and services to a diverse customer base, including utilities and other power producers, businesses in various process industries, such as pulp and paper mills, petrochemical plants, oil refineries and steel mills, and the U.S. Government. Our five largest customers, as a percentage of our total combined revenues, during the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 were as follows:

Year Ended December 31, 2009:
U.S. Government	33	%
American Electric Power Company, Inc.	6	%
FirstEnergy Corp.	3	%
Bruce Power, L.P.	3	%
United States Enrichment Corporation	2	%
Year Ended December 31, 2008:
U.S. Government	22	%
American Electric Power Company, Inc.	7	%
First Energy Corp.	4	%
Allegheny Energy, Inc.	3	%
Public Service Company of New Mexico	3	%

The U.S. Government is the primary customer of our Government Operations segment, comprising 92% and 89% of segment revenues for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Our non-U.S. Government customers that account for a significant portion of revenues in one year may represent an immaterial portion of revenues in subsequent years.

Raw Materials and Suppliers

Our operations use raw materials, such as carbon and alloy steels in various forms and components and accessories for assembly, which are available from numerous sources. We generally purchase these raw materials and components as needed for individual contracts. Our Power Generation Systems segment does not depend on a single source of supply for any significant raw materials. Our Government Operations segment relies on several single-source suppliers for materials used in its products. We believe these suppliers are viable, and we and the U.S. Government expend significant effort to maintain the supplier base for our Government Operations segment.

Although shortages of some raw materials have existed from time to time, no serious shortage exists at the present time.

Employees

At March 31, 2010, we employed approximately 13,000 persons worldwide, not including approximately 10,000 joint venture employees. Approximately 4,700 of our employees were members of labor unions at March 31, 2010. Many of our operations are subject to union contracts, which we customarily renew periodically. We consider our relationships with our employees to be satisfactory.

Patents and Technology Licenses

We currently hold a large number of U.S. and foreign patents and have numerous patent applications pending. We have acquired patents and technology licenses and granted technology licenses to others when we have considered it advantageous for us to do so. Although in the aggregate our patents and technology licenses are important to us, we do not regard any single patent or technology license or group of related patents or technology licenses as critical or essential to our business as a whole. In general, we depend on our technological capabilities and the application of know-how, rather than patents and technology licenses, in the conduct of our various businesses.

96

Research and Development Activities

We conduct our principal research and development activities at our research and development facility in Barberton, Ohio and at our various manufacturing plants and engineering and design offices. Our Barberton facility is a world-class institution for the advancement and development of energy conversion and combustion systems, environmental emissions control processes, materials selection and manufacturing technologies for the power generation industry. Our research and development activities are related to the development and improvement of new and existing products and equipment, as well as conceptual and engineering evaluation for translation into practical applications. We charge to cost of operations the costs of research and development unrelated to specific contracts as incurred. Substantially all of these costs are in our Power Generation Systems segment and include costs related to the development of carbon capture and sequestration technology and our modular and scalable nuclear reactor business, B&W mPower^TM. Our research and development activities cost approximately $53.2 million, $38.5 million and $34.8 million in the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. We expect to continue significant spending on research and development projects, as we continue development of our carbon capture and sequestration technology and the B&W mPower^TM reactor technology and other commercial nuclear projects. Contractual arrangements for customer-sponsored research and development can vary on a case-by-case basis and include contracts, cooperative agreements and grants. Of our total research and development expenses, our customers paid for approximately $28.1 million, $20.8 million and $18.3 million in the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Hazard Risks and Insurance

Our operations present risks of injury to or death of people, loss of or damage to property, and damage to the environment. We have created loss control systems to assist us in the identification and treatment of the hazard risks presented by our operations, and we endeavor to make sure these systems are effective.

As loss control measures will not always be successful, we seek to establish various means of funding losses and liability related to incidents or occurrences. We primarily seek to do this through contractual protections, including waivers of consequential damages, indemnities, caps on liability, liquidated damage provisions, and access to the insurance of other parties. We also procure insurance, operate our own captive insurance company and/or establish funded or unfunded reserves. However, none of these methods will eliminate all risks.

Depending on competitive conditions, the nature of the work, industry custom and other factors, we may not be successful in obtaining adequate contractual protection from our customers and other parties against losses and liabilities arising out of or related to the performance of our work. The scope of the protection may be limited, may be subject to conditions and may not be supported by adequate insurance or other means of financing. In addition, we sometimes have difficulty enforcing our contractual rights with others following a material loss.

Similarly, insurance for certain potential loses or liabilities may not be available or may only be available at a cost or on terms we consider not to be economical. Insurers frequently react to market losses by ceasing to write or severely limiting coverage for certain exposures. Risks that we have frequently found difficult to cost-effectively insure against include, but are not limited to, business interruption, property losses from wind, flood and earthquake events, nuclear hazards, war and confiscation or seizure of property in some areas of the world, pollution liability, liabilities related to occupational health exposures (including asbestos), liability related to our executives participating in the management of certain outside entities, professional liability/errors and omissions coverage, the failure or unavailability of our information systems, and liability related to risk of loss of our work in progress and customer-owned materials in our care, custody and control. In cases where we place insurance, we are subject to the credit worthiness of the relevant insurer(s), the available limits of the coverage, our retention under the relevant policy, exclusions in the policy and gaps in coverage.

Our operations in designing, engineering, manufacturing, constructing and servicing nuclear power equipment and components for our commercial nuclear utility customers subject us to various risks, including,

97

without limitation, damage to our customers’ property and third-party claims for personal injury, death and property damage. To protect against liability for damage to a customer’s property, we endeavor to obtain waivers of liability and subrogation from the customer and its insurer and are usually named as an additional insured under the utility customer’s nuclear property policy. We also attempt to cap our overall liability in our contracts. To protect against liability from claims brought by third parties, we are insured under the utility customer’s nuclear liability policies and have the benefit of the indemnity and limitation of any applicable liability provision of the Price-Anderson Act. The Price-Anderson Act limits the public liability of manufacturers and operators of licensed nuclear facilities and other parties who may be liable in respect of, and indemnifies them against, all claims in excess of a certain amount. This amount is determined by the sum of commercially available liability insurance plus certain retrospective premium assessments payable by operators of commercial nuclear reactors. For those sites where we provide environmental remediation services, we seek the same protection from our customers as we do for our other nuclear activities. The Price-Anderson Act, as amended, includes a sunset provision and requires renewal each time that it expires. Contracts that were entered into during a period of time that Price-Anderson was in full force and effect continue to receive the benefit of the Price-Anderson Act’s nuclear indemnity. The Price-Anderson Act is set to expire on December 31, 2025. We also provide nuclear fabrication and other services to the nuclear power industry in Canada. Canada’s Nuclear Liability Act generally conforms to international conventions and is conceptually similar to the Price-Anderson Act in the United States. Accordingly, indemnification protections and the possibility of exclusions under Canada’s Nuclear Liability Act are similar to those under the Price-Anderson Act in the United States.

Although we currently do not own or operate any nuclear reactors, we have some coverage under commercially available nuclear liability and property insurance for our facilities that are currently licensed to possess special nuclear materials. Substantially all of our Government Operations segment contracts involving nuclear materials are covered by and subject to the nuclear indemnity provisions of either the Price-Anderson Act or Public Law 85-804. However, to the extent the value of the nuclear materials in our care, custody or control exceeds the commercially available limits of our insurance, we potentially have underinsured risk of loss for such nuclear material.

Our Government Operations segment participates in the management and operation of various U.S. Government facilities. This participation is customarily accomplished through the participation in joint ventures with other contractors for any given facility. These activities involve, among other things, handling nuclear devices and their components from the aging stockpile of the U.S. Government. Insurable liabilities arising from these sites are rarely protected by our corporate insurance program. Instead, we rely on government contractual agreements, insurance purchased specifically for a site and certain specialized self-insurance programs funded by the U.S. Government. The U.S. Government has historically fulfilled its contractual agreement to reimburse its contractors for covered claims, and we expect it to continue this process during our participation in the administration of these facilities. However, in most of these situations in which the U.S. Government is contractually obligated to pay, the payment obligation is subject to the availability of authorized government funds. The reimbursement obligation of the U.S. Government is also conditional, and provisions of the relevant contract or applicable law may preclude reimbursement.

Our wholly owned captive insurance subsidiary provides workers’ compensation, employer’s liability, commercial general liability and automotive liability insurance to support our operations. We may also have business reasons in the future to have our insurance subsidiary accept other risks which we cannot or do not wish to transfer to outside insurance companies. These risks may be considerable in any given year or cumulatively. Our insurance subsidiary has not provided significant amounts of insurance to unrelated parties. Claims as a result of our operations could adversely impact the ability of our insurance subsidiary to respond to all claims presented.

Additionally, upon the February 22, 2006 effectiveness of the settlement relating to the Chapter 11 proceedings involving several of our subsidiaries, most of our subsidiaries contributed substantial insurance rights to the asbestos personal injury trust, including rights to (1) certain pre-1979 primary and excess insurance

98

coverages and (2) certain of our 1979-1986 excess insurance coverage. These insurance rights provided coverage for, among other things, asbestos and other personal injury claims, subject to the terms and conditions of the policies. The contribution of these insurance rights was made in exchange for the agreement on the part of the representatives of the asbestos claimants, including the representative of future claimants, to the entry of a permanent injunction, pursuant to Section 524(g) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, to channel to the asbestos trust all asbestos-related claims against our subsidiaries and former subsidiaries arising out of, resulting from or attributable to their operations, and the implementation of related releases and indemnification provisions protecting those subsidiaries and their affiliates from future liability for such claims. Although we are not aware of any significant, unresolved claims against our subsidiaries and former subsidiaries that are not subject to the channeling injunction and that relate to the periods during which such excess insurance coverage related, with the contribution of these insurance rights to the asbestos personal injury trust, it is possible that we could have underinsured or uninsured exposure for non-derivative asbestos claims or other personal injury or other claims that would have been insured under these coverages had the insurance rights not been contributed to the asbestos personal injury trust.

Governmental Regulations and Environmental Matters

General

Many aspects of our operations and properties are affected by political developments and are subject to both domestic and foreign governmental regulations, including those relating to:

• constructing and equipping electric power and other industrial facilities;

• possessing and processing special nuclear materials;

• workplace health and safety;

• currency conversions and repatriation;

• taxation of foreign earnings and earnings of expatriate personnel; and

• protecting the environment.

We are required by various governmental and quasi-governmental agencies to obtain certain permits, licenses and certificates with respect to our operations. The kinds of permits, licenses and certificates required in our operations depend upon a number of factors.

We cannot determine the extent to which new legislation, new regulations or changes in existing laws or regulations may affect our future operations.

Environmental

Our operations and properties are subject to a wide variety of increasingly complex and stringent foreign, federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations, including those governing discharges into the air and water, the handling and disposal of solid and hazardous wastes, the remediation of soil and groundwater contaminated by hazardous substances and the health and safety of employees. Sanctions for noncompliance may include revocation of permits, corrective action orders, administrative or civil penalties and criminal prosecution. Some environmental laws provide for strict, joint and several liability for remediation of spills and other releases of hazardous substances, as well as damage to natural resources. In addition, companies may be subject to claims alleging personal injury or property damage as a result of alleged exposure to hazardous substances. Such laws and regulations may also expose us to liability for the conduct of or conditions caused by others or for our acts that were in compliance with all applicable laws at the time such acts were performed.

These laws and regulations include the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, as amended (“CERCLA”), the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act, the Resource

99

Conservation and Recovery Act and similar laws that provide for responses to, and liability for, releases of hazardous substances into the environment. These laws and regulations also include similar foreign, state or local counterparts to these federal laws, which regulate air emissions, water discharges, hazardous substances and waste and require public disclosure related to the use of various hazardous substances. Our operations are also governed by laws and regulations relating to workplace safety and worker health, primarily, in the United States, the Occupational Safety and Health Act and regulations promulgated thereunder.

We are currently in the process of investigating and remediating some of our operating sites. We have recorded a total reserve for these sites of $50.3 million. The sites include our manufacturing facilities at Lynchburg, Virginia ($11.6 million reserve, primarily relating to the decommissioning at a nuclear analytical laboratory) and Erwin, Tennessee ($37.8 million reserve for decontamination and decommissioning of legacy operations conducted prior to our acquisition of Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc.). Additional sites include our research center at Alliance, Ohio ($0.3 million reserve), as well as discontinued operations at Canmore Mine, Alberta, Canada ($0.4 million reserve), Kiski Valley, Pennsylvania ($0.1 million reserve) and Maxey Flats, Kentucky ($0.1 million reserve). Each of these sites either used or possessed hazardous materials in a manner that required remediation. Although we have recorded reserves in connection with certain of these matters, due to the uncertainties associated with environmental remediation, we cannot assure you that the actual costs resulting from these remediation matters will not exceed the recorded reserves.

Our compliance with U.S. federal, state and local environmental control and protection regulations resulted in pretax charges of approximately $11.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2009. In addition, compliance with existing environmental regulations necessitated capital expenditures of $0.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2009. We expect to spend another $5.5 million on such capital expenditures over the next five years. We cannot predict all of the environmental requirements or circumstances that will exist in the future but anticipate that environmental control and protection standards will become increasingly stringent and costly. Based on our experience to date, we do not currently anticipate any material adverse effect on our business or financial condition as a result of future compliance with existing environmental laws and regulations. However, future events, such as changes in existing laws and regulations or their interpretation, more vigorous enforcement policies of regulatory agencies or stricter or different interpretations of existing laws and regulations, may require additional expenditures by us, which may be material. Accordingly, we can provide no assurance that we will not incur significant environmental compliance costs in the future.

We have been identified as a potentially responsible party at various cleanup sites under CERCLA. CERCLA and other environmental laws can impose liability for the entire cost of cleanup on any of the potentially responsible parties, regardless of fault or the lawfulness of the original conduct. Generally, however, where there are multiple responsible parties, a final allocation of costs is made based on the amount and type of wastes disposed of by each party and the number of financially viable parties, although this may not be the case with respect to any particular site. We have not been determined to be a major contributor of wastes to any of these sites. On the basis of our relative contribution of waste to each site, we expect our share of the ultimate liability for the various sites will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in any given year.

Environmental remediation projects have been and continue to be undertaken at certain of our current and former plant sites. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 1995, one of our subsidiaries decided to close its nuclear manufacturing facilities in Parks Township, Armstrong County, Pennsylvania (the “Parks Facilities”) and proceeded to decommission the facilities in accordance with its then-existing license from the NRC. The facilities were subsequently transferred to another subsidiary of ours in the fiscal year ended March 31, 1998, and, during the fiscal year ended March 31, 1999, that subsidiary reached an agreement with the NRC on a plan that provided for the completion of facilities dismantlement and soil restoration by 2001 and license termination in 2003. An application to terminate the NRC license for the Parks Township facility was filed, and the NRC terminated the license in 2004 and released the facility for unrestricted use. For a discussion of certain civil litigation we are involved in concerning the Parks Facilities, see “—Legal Proceedings—“PADEP Notice.”

100

We perform significant amounts of work for the U.S. Government under both prime contracts and subcontracts and operate certain facilities that are licensed to possess and process special nuclear materials. As a result of these activities, we are subject to continuing reviews by governmental agencies, including the EPA and the NRC.

The NRC’s decommissioning regulations require our Government Operations segment to provide financial assurance that it will be able to pay the expected cost of decommissioning each of its facilities at the end of its service life. We will continue to provide financial assurance aggregating $33.7 million during the year ending December 31, 2010 with existing letters of credit for the ultimate decommissioning of all of these licensed facilities, except two. These two facilities, which represent the largest portion of our eventual decommissioning costs, have provisions in their government contracts pursuant to which substantially all of our decommissioning costs and financial assurance obligations are covered by the DOE, including the costs to complete the decommissioning projects underway at the Erwin facility.

The demand for power generation products and services can be influenced by state and federal governmental legislation setting requirements for utilities related to operations, emissions and environmental impacts. The legislative process is unpredictable and includes a platform that continuously seeks to increase the restrictions on power producers. Potential legislation limiting emissions from power plants, including carbon dioxide, could affect our markets and the demand for our products and services in our Power Generation Systems segment.

At December 31, 2009 and 2008, we had total environmental reserves, including provisions for the facilities discussed above, of $50.3 million and $38.0 million, respectively. Of our total environmental reserves at December 31, 2009 and 2008, $2.5 million and $5.0 million, respectively, were included in current liabilities. Inherent in the estimates of those reserves and recoveries are our expectations regarding the levels of contamination, decommissioning costs and recoverability from other parties, which may vary significantly as decommissioning activities progress. Accordingly, changes in estimates could result in material adjustments to our operating results, and the ultimate loss may differ materially from the amounts we have provided for in our combined financial statements.

Legal Proceedings

PADEP Notice

The Department of Environmental Protection of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (“PADEP”) advised us in March 1994 that it would seek monetary sanctions and remedial and monitoring relief related to the Parks Facilities. The relief sought is related to potential groundwater contamination resulting from previous operations at the facilities. These facilities are currently owned by a subsidiary in our Government Operations segment. PADEP has advised us that it does not intend to assess any monetary sanctions, provided our Government Operations segment continues its remediation program for the Parks Facilities. Whether additional nonradiation contamination remediation will be required at the Parks Facility remains unclear. Results from sampling completed by our Government Operations segment have indicated that such remediation may not be necessary. Our Government Operations segment continues to evaluate closure of the groundwater issues pursuant to applicable Pennsylvania law.

Apollo and Parks Township Litigation

Since January 2010, five suits involving approximately 25 plaintiffs have been filed against B&W PGG, Babcock & Wilcox Technical Services Group, Inc., formerly known as B&W Nuclear Environmental Services, Inc. (together with B&W PGG, the “B&W Parties”) and Atlantic Richfield Company (“ARCO”) in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania (the “Apollo and Parks Township Litigation”). The plaintiffs in the Apollo and Parks Township Litigation allege, among other things, that they suffered personal

101

injuries and property damage as a result of alleged radioactive and non-radioactive releases relating to the operation, remediation and/or decommissioning of two former nuclear fuel processing facilities located in Apollo and Parks Township, Pennsylvania. Those facilities previously were owned by Nuclear Materials and Equipment Company, a former subsidiary of ARCO (“NUMEC”) which was acquired by B&W PGG. The plaintiffs in the Apollo and Parks Township Litigation seek compensatory and punitive damages. It is possible that additional, similar lawsuits will be filed.

At the time of ARCO’s sale of NUMEC to B&W PGG, B&W PGG received an indemnity and hold harmless agreement from ARCO from claims or liabilities arising as a result of pre-closing NUMEC or ARCO actions.

We intend to vigorously defend these matters, and believe that in the event of liability, if any, the claims alleged in the Apollo and Parks Township Litigation will be resolved within the limits of coverage of our insurance policies and/or the ARCO indemnity.

B&W PGG settled approximately 245 personal injury and wrongful death claims, as well as approximately 125 property damage claims, alleging injury and damage as a result of alleged releases relating to these two facilities. The aggregate settlement amount for these claims was $52.5 million, which was paid during 2009, all of which had been previously accrued. In connection with that settlement, the B&W Parties are pursuing recovery in the matter of The Babcock & Wilcox Company et al. v. American Nuclear Insurers et al. (the “ANI Litigation”) from their insurer, American Nuclear Insurers and Mutual Atomic Energy Liability Underwriters, of the amounts paid in settlement of that prior action. The ANI Litigation is pending before the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania.   No trial date has been set in the matter.

Iroquois Falls Litigation

An action entitled Iroquois Falls Power Corp. v. Jacobs Canada Inc., et al., was filed in the Superior Court of Justice, in Ontario, Canada, on June 1, 2005. Iroquois Falls Power Corp. (“Iroquois”) seeks damages of approximately $14 million (Canadian) as a result of an alleged breach by one of our former subsidiaries in connection with the supply and installation of heat recovery steam generators. McDermott Incorporated, an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of McDermott, or MI, provided a guarantee to certain obligations of the former subsidiary. MI and two bonding companies with whom McDermott entered into an indemnity arrangement were also named as defendants. In March 2007, the Superior Court granted summary judgment in favor of all defendants and dismissed all claims of Iroquois, which appealed the ruling. Subsequently, the Court of Appeals for Ontario upheld the summary judgment, but sent the case back to the Superior Court of Justice to allow Iroquois an opportunity to amend its complaint to assert new claims. The Superior Court of Justice, however, denied Iroquois’ request to amend its complaint and assert new claims against the defendants based on a breach of contractual warranty. Iroquois appealed the Superior Court’s decision and, in June 2009, the Court of Appeals for Ontario reversed the decision and sent the case back to the Superior Court for Iroquois to file an amended complaint on those new claims. In January 2010, our notice to appeal the Court of Appeals’ decision was dismissed by the Supreme Court.

Chapter 11 Proceedings

In February 2000, several of B&W’s subsidiaries filed for voluntary Chapter 11 protection, due to mounting asbestos-related claims tied to asbestos-containing commercial and utility boilers and other products they sold, installed or serviced in prior decades. From the date of the filing of the Chapter 11 petition until their emergence from Chapter 11 in 2006, McDermott treated those subsidiaries as deconsolidated subsidiaries for financial reporting purposes. The final settlement with representatives of asbestos claimants in the Chapter 11 proceedings, which was effected in a plan of reorganization consummated as of February 22, 2006, involved McDermott’s and B&W’s contribution of rights under various insurance policies, cash and a promissory note, with an aggregate value of approximately $2 billion, to a settlement trust, the channeling of asbestos-related personal injury claims to that trust and McDermott’s retention of the ownership of the B&W subsidiaries involved in the Chapter 11 proceedings.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

In connection with the spin-off, we have entered into several agreements with McDermott to define our ongoing relationship with McDermott after the spin-off. These agreements, among other things, allocate responsibility for obligations arising before and after the distribution date, including, among others, obligations relating to our employees, various transition services and taxes. For more information about those agreements and our historical relationship with McDermott, see “Relationship with McDermott After the Spin-Off.”

Ms. Salomone served as the President and Chief Executive Officer of Marine Mechanical Corporation (“MMC”) before we acquired MMC in 2007. Prior to our acquisition, the shares of Class A common stock of MMC were owned by an employee stock ownership trust (the “ESOP”), and Ms. Salomone was a participant in the ESOP. In addition, among other former MMC employees, Ms. Salomone owned shares of Class B common stock of MMC and certain options to purchase shares of Class B common stock of MMC. In connection with the acquisition, we deposited a portion of the acquisition price for the Class A shares, the Class B shares and the options in an escrow account, as a means of providing a fund for resolution of any post-closing claims under the indemnification provisions of the acquisition agreement. As of March 31, 2010, the balance of the escrow account was approximately $5.6 million. Under the terms of the escrow arrangement, and subject to certain exceptions, any remaining balance in the escrow account as of May 2011 is scheduled to be released to the ESOP participants and former holders of the Class B shares and the options, including Ms. Salomone, after such date. Ms. Salomone has an approximate 5.2% interest in the funds in the escrow account based on her participation interest in the ESOP and her former ownership of Class B shares and options.

Related Person Transactions Policies and Procedures

We expect that our board will adopt a policy, which will be made available on our website, that will require all employees (including our Named Executive Officers) who have, or whose immediate family members have, any direct or indirect financial or other participation in any business that competes with, supplies goods or services to, or is a customer of ours, to disclose to us and receive written approval from our Corporate Ethics and Compliance department prior to transacting such business. We refer to any such transaction as a related person transaction.

Our employees are expected to make reasoned and impartial decisions in the workplace. As a result, approval of certain business will be denied if we believe that the employee’s interest in such business could influence decisions relative to our business, or have the potential to adversely affect our business or the objective performance of the employee’s work.

Our Corporate Ethics and Compliance department implements our Code of Business Conduct and related policies and the Governance Committee of our Board is responsible for overseeing our Ethics and Compliance Program, including compliance with our Code of Business Conduct. Our Code of Business Conduct provides that all employees (including Named Executive Officers) must ensure that business decisions they make and actions they take on behalf of our company are not influenced by personal considerations or personal relationships and will require appropriate disclosures of potential conflicts of interest.

Additionally, our Governance Committee is responsible for reviewing the professional occupations and associations of our Board members and reviews transactions between B&W and other companies with which our Board members are affiliated.

RELATIONSHIP WITH MCDERMOTT AFTER THE SPIN-OFF

Historical Relationship with McDermott

We are currently a wholly owned subsidiary of McDermott. As a result of this historic parent-subsidiary relationship, in the ordinary course of our business, we and our subsidiaries have received various services provided by McDermott and some of its other subsidiaries, including accounting, treasury, tax, legal, risk management, public affairs, human resources, procurement, information technology and other services. Our historical financial statements include allocations by McDermott of a portion of its overhead costs related to those services. These cost allocations have been determined on a basis that we and McDermott consider to be reasonable reflections of the use of those services.

McDermott’s Distribution of Our Stock

McDermott will be our sole stockholder until completion of the spin-off. In the spin-off, McDermott is distributing its entire equity interest in us to its stockholders in a transaction that is intended to be tax free to McDermott and its U.S. stockholders. The spin-off will be subject to a number of conditions, some of which are more fully described above under “The Spin-Off—Spin-Off Conditions and Termination.”

Agreements Between McDermott and Us

In the discussion that follows, we have described the material provisions of agreements we have entered into with McDermott. The description of those agreements is not complete and is qualified by reference to the terms of the agreements, the forms of which have been filed as exhibits to the registration statement on Form 10 of which this information statement is a part. We encourage you to read the full text of those agreements. Those agreements were developed under the oversight of the Restructuring Committee of the McDermott board of directors, which was formed to oversee an orderly and appropriate separation of our company from McDermott. Because the terms of our separation from McDermott and these agreements are being entered into in the context of a related-party transaction, these terms may not be comparable to terms that would be obtained in a transaction between unaffiliated parties.

Master Separation Agreement

The master separation agreement between McDermott and us governs the separation of our businesses from McDermott, the subsequent distribution of our shares to McDermott stockholders and other matters related to McDermott’s relationship with us.

The Separation. To effect the separation, McDermott will effect a series of transactions which will cause us to succeed to the assets of our business as described in this information statement (which assets may include stock or other equity interests of McDermott subsidiaries). We will also succeed to, and have agreed to perform and fulfill, the liabilities described below. In particular, the master separation agreement generally provides that, upon completion of the separation:

• we will directly or indirectly hold:

• all of the assets owned by McDermott or any of its subsidiaries which are reflected on our most recent pro forma combined balance sheet set forth in this information statement, or subsequently-acquired or created assets that would have been reflected on a later-dated balance sheet, and

• all other assets held by us, McDermott, or any of our respective subsidiaries used primarily in or that primarily relate to our business on or prior to the date of the spin-off, subject to certain exceptions;

• we will be subject to:

• all outstanding liabilities reflected on our most recent pro forma, as adjusted combined balance sheet set forth in this information statement, or subsequently-incurred or accrued liabilities that would have been reflected on a later-dated balance sheet,

104

• liabilities to the extent relating to, arising out of or resulting from our post-spin-off operations, or any assets owned by us or our subsidiaries as of or after the spin-off, and

• liabilities we have assumed under the master separation agreement and other ancillary agreements.

The master separation agreement provides that capital stock, assets or liabilities that cannot legally be transferred or assumed prior to the spin-off will be transferred or assumed as soon as practicable following receipt of all necessary consents of third parties and regulatory approvals. In any such case, the master separation agreement provides that the party retaining such capital stock, assets or liabilities will hold the capital stock or assets in trust for the use and benefit of, or retain the liabilities for the account of, the party entitled to the capital stock, assets or liabilities (at the expense of that party), until the transfer or assumption can be completed. The party retaining the capital stock, assets or liabilities will also take any action reasonably requested by the other party in order to place the other party in the same position as would have existed if the transfer or assumption had been completed. Based on the third-party consents and approvals we have already received, we do not anticipate that these provisions will be relied on for any material items.

Except as set forth in the master separation agreement, no party is making any representation or warranty as to the companies, capital stock, assets or liabilities transferred or assumed as a part of the separation and any assets that may be transferred will be transferred on an “as is, where is” basis. As a result, we and McDermott each have agreed to bear the economic and legal risks that any conveyances of capital stock or assets are insufficient to vest good and marketable title to such capital stock or assets, as the case may be, in the party who should have title under the master separation agreement. The master separation agreement also provides that the spin-off is subject to the conditions described under “The Spin-Off—Spin-Off Conditions and Termination.”

Surety Instruments and Guarantees. The master separation agreement requires that we and McDermott use our commercially reasonable efforts to terminate (or have us or one of our subsidiaries substituted for McDermott, or McDermott or one of its subsidiaries substituted for us, as applicable, under) all existing guarantees by one party of obligations relating to the business of the other party, including financial, performance and other guarantee obligations. We also have agreed with McDermott that we will use our commercially reasonable efforts to have us or one of our subsidiaries substituted for McDermott under letters of credit or other surety instruments issued by third parties for the account of McDermott or any of its subsidiaries but on behalf of our business. In the event we are unable to be substituted under existing surety instruments or issue replacement surety instruments, we will otherwise reach agreement with McDermott prior to the spin-off to satisfy any requirements for surety instruments and will indemnify McDermott for the value of the applicable instruments.

Insurance. The master separation agreement provides that, to the extent permitted by the terms of the applicable policy, we and our directors, officers and employees will continue to have (as successors-in-interest) all rights we and they had immediately prior to the spin-off, with respect to events that occurred prior to the spin-off, as a subsidiary, affiliate, division, director, officer or employee of McDermott under any McDermott insurance policy with a third-party carrier. McDermott will have no liability if any insurance policy is terminated, is not renewed or extended, or is insufficient or unavailable.

Intellectual Property. In connection with the separation, we will generally assign to McDermott all intellectual property rights to the extent not exclusively used in our business, and McDermott will grant us a perpetual, nonexclusive, royalty-free license in all such intellectual property. We will retain all rights in our trademarks, and in intellectual property exclusively used in our business and other specified intellectual property.

Access to Information. Subject to applicable confidentiality provisions and other restrictions, we and McDermott will each give each other any information in our possession that the requesting party reasonably needs (1) to comply with requirements imposed on the requesting party by a governmental authority, (2) for use in any proceeding to satisfy audit, accounting, insurance claims, regulatory, litigation or other similar requirements, (3) to comply with its obligations under the master separation agreement and other ancillary agreements or (4) for any other significant business need as mutually determined in good faith by the parties.

105

Indemnification and Release. In general, under the master separation agreement, we have agreed to indemnify McDermott and its representatives and affiliates against certain liabilities from third-party claims to the extent relating to, arising out of or resulting from:

• our failure to discharge any of our liabilities or any of our agreements;

• the operation of our business, whether before or after the spin-off; and

• any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or material omission or alleged material omission in the registration statement of which this information statement is a part, other than certain information relating to McDermott.

We have also agreed to indemnify McDermott and its representatives and affiliates against 50% of the amount of liabilities from any third-party claims asserted after the distribution date to the extent relating to certain discontinued operations conducted prior to the distribution date that are not directly attributable or related to either McDermott’s offshore oil and gas construction business or our business.

In general, under the master separation agreement, McDermott has agreed to indemnify us and our representatives and affiliates against certain liabilities from third-party claims to the extent relating to, arising out of or resulting from:

• the failure of McDermott to discharge any liability of McDermott or any McDermott agreement that is not transferred to us;

• the operation of McDermott’s business (other than our business), whether before or after the spin-off; and

• any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or material omission or alleged material omission in the registration statement of which this information statement is part, only for certain information relating to McDermott.

McDermott has also agreed to indemnify us and our representatives and affiliates against 50% of the amount of liabilities from any third-party claims asserted after the distribution date to the extent relating to certain discontinued operations conducted prior to the distribution date that are not directly attributable or related to either McDermott’s offshore oil and gas construction business or our business.

Under the master separation agreement, we generally release McDermott and its affiliates, agents, successors and assigns, and McDermott generally releases us and our affiliates, agents, successors and assigns, from any liabilities between us or our subsidiaries on the one hand, and McDermott or its subsidiaries on the other hand, arising from acts or events occurring on or before the spin-off, including acts or events occurring in connection with the separation or distribution. This release will include the release of a net intercompany payable in an approximate amount of $200 million as of December 31, 2009 currently owed to B&W by certain subsidiaries of ours that will be transferred to McDermott in connection with the spin-off. One of our subsidiaries also owes approximately $320 million under a promissory note to another subsidiary of McDermott (and, as a result of certain pre-spin restructuring transactions, including the transfer of that subsidiary to McDermott, our consolidated group will be effectively relieved of any continuing obligations relating to that promissory note). The general release does not apply to obligations under the master separation agreement or any ancillary agreement or to specified ongoing contractual arrangements.

Termination. The master separation agreement provides that it may be terminated at any time before the spin-off by McDermott in its sole discretion.

106

Tax Sharing Agreement

We and a subsidiary of McDermott (the “McDermott Party”) have entered into a tax sharing agreement that will govern the respective rights, responsibilities and obligations of McDermott and its subsidiaries, and us with respect to taxes and tax benefits, the filing of tax returns, the control of audits and other tax matters. References in this summary description of the tax sharing agreement to the terms “tax” or “taxes” mean taxes as well as any interest, penalties, additions to tax or additional amounts in respect of such taxes.

The results of U.S. operations of McDermott and/or certain of its subsidiaries are currently reflected in our consolidated return for U.S. federal income tax purposes and/or certain consolidated, combined and unitary returns for state, local and foreign tax purposes. However, for periods (or portions thereof) beginning after the transaction in which McDermott and its subsidiaries are separated from us (the “Separation Transaction”), McDermott and its subsidiaries generally will not join with us in the filing of any federal, state, local or foreign consolidated, combined or unitary tax returns.

Under the tax sharing agreement, for any tax period (or portion thereof), we will generally be responsible for paying all U.S. federal, state, local and foreign income taxes that are imposed on us and our subsidiaries, and the McDermott Party will be responsible for paying all U.S. federal, state, local and foreign income taxes that are imposed on McDermott and its subsidiaries. However, for tax periods (or portions thereof) ending on or prior to the date of the Separation Transaction, we will also be responsible for paying all U.S. federal, state, local and foreign income taxes relating to an intercompany borrowing by one of our affiliates.

We and the McDermott Party generally will not be required to reimburse one another for the use by one party or its affiliates of tax benefits attributable to the other party or its affiliates. However, we will have an obligation to reimburse the McDermott Party, and the McDermott Party will have an obligation to reimburse us, for:

• tax benefits arising as a result of an audit or other required adjustment occurring after the date of the Separation Transaction that are attributable to one party or its affiliates and used by the other party or its affiliates during tax periods (or portions thereof) ending on or prior to the date of the Separation Transaction; and

• tax benefits arising after the date of the Separation Transaction that are attributable to one party or its affiliates and that are carried back under applicable tax law and used by the other party or its affiliates during tax periods (or portions thereof) ending on or prior to the date of the Separation Transaction.

Notwithstanding the tax sharing agreement, under U.S. Treasury Regulations, each member of a U.S. consolidated group is severally liable for the U.S. federal income tax liability of each other member of such consolidated group. Accordingly, with respect to periods in which certain subsidiaries of McDermott have been included in our U.S. consolidated group, we and our subsidiaries could be liable to the U.S. Government for any U.S. federal income tax liability incurred, but not discharged, by those McDermott subsidiaries. However, if any such liability were imposed, we would generally be entitled to be indemnified by the McDermott Party for tax liabilities attributable to it under the tax sharing agreement.

We will be responsible for preparing and filing all consolidated, combined and unitary tax returns that include us or our subsidiaries and McDermott or its subsidiaries (regardless of when the tax period ends), or that include solely us or our subsidiaries, and the McDermott Party will be responsible for preparing and filing all consolidated, combined and unitary tax returns that include solely McDermott or its subsidiaries. The party that files a tax return will have the authority to respond to and appear in all tax proceedings, including tax audits, involving any taxes or any deemed adjustment to taxes reported on such tax return, except with respect to (1) those portions of such return that relate exclusively to the other party and (2) certain specified issues over which we will have exclusive audit control. The tax sharing agreement further provides for cooperation between

107

us and the McDermott Party with respect to tax matters, the exchange of information and the retention of records that may affect the tax liabilities of the parties to the agreement.

To the extent permitted by applicable tax law, we and the McDermott Party will treat any payments made under the tax sharing agreement as a capital contribution or distribution (as applicable) immediately prior to the Separation Transaction, and accordingly, as not includible in the taxable income of the recipient.

In the event that the Separation Transaction and/or certain related transactions were to fail to qualify for tax-free treatment, we would generally be responsible for all of the tax imposed on us or McDermott and its subsidiaries resulting from such failure. However, if such failure resulted from actions or failures to act by McDermott or its subsidiaries, the McDermott Party would be responsible for such tax.

THIS SUMMARY IS QUALIFIED BY REFERENCE TO THE FULL TEXT OF THE TAX SHARING AGREEMENT, A FORM OF WHICH HAS BEEN FILED AS AN EXHIBIT TO THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON FORM 10 OF WHICH THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT IS A PART.

Employee Matters Agreement

We and McDermott have entered into an employee matters agreement, which provides that each of McDermott and B&W will have responsibility for its own employees and compensation plans. The agreement contains provisions concerning benefit protection for McDermott employees, treatment of holders of McDermott stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, deferred stock units and performance shares, and cooperation between us and McDermott in the sharing of employee information and maintenance of confidentiality.

Treatment of Retirement, Health and Welfare Plans. In general, our employees currently participate in various retirement, health and welfare, and other employee benefit plans. Following the spin-off, we anticipate that our employees will generally continue to participate in the same plans or will participate in similar plans and arrangements that we will establish and maintain. Pursuant to the employee matters agreement, effective as of the distribution date, we and McDermott will each retain responsibility for our respective employees and compensation plans.

In several locations outside the United States, it likely will not be feasible to establish retirement or welfare plans due to the small number of employees at those locations. In those situations, we will establish alternative compensation or benefit programs to comply with our obligations to affected employees.

Treatment of Stock-Based Awards. The employee matters agreement also provides for the adjustments and replacement awards to be made with respect to options to purchase shares of McDermott common stock, McDermott shares of restricted stock, restricted stock units, deferred stock units and performance shares, as described under “The Spin-Off—Treatment of Stock-Based Awards.”

Entitlement to Tax Deductions. We will be entitled to claim all tax deductions for compensation arising after the spin-off from the exercise of substitute B&W options, the vesting of B&W restricted stock, restricted stock unit, deferred stock unit and performance share awards held by current or former employees of ours, and McDermott will not claim any such deduction. McDermott will be entitled to claim all tax deductions for compensation arising after the spin-off from the exercise of adjusted McDermott options or substitute B&W options, the vesting of McDermott restricted stock, restricted stock unit, deferred stock unit and performance share awards or B&W restricted stock, restricted stock unit, deferred stock unit and performance share awards held by current or former McDermott employees, and we will not claim any such deduction.

108

Transition Services Agreements

We and McDermott have entered into transition services agreements under which we and McDermott will provide and/or make available various administrative services and assets to each other, for specified periods beginning on the distribution date. The services McDermott will provide us will include:

• accounting services;

• executive consulting services;

• human resources services;

• information technology services;

• investor relations services;

• legal services;

• risk management services;

• tax services; and

• treasury services.

The services we will provide to McDermott will include:

• accounting services;

• human resources services;

• information technology services;

• legal services;

• risk management services;

• tax services; and

• treasury services.

In consideration for such services, we and McDermott will each pay fees to the other for the services provided, and those fees will generally be in amounts intended to allow the party providing services to recover all of its direct and indirect costs incurred in providing those services.

The personnel performing services under the transition services agreements will be employees and/or independent contractors of the party providing the service and will not be under the direction or control of the party to whom the service is being provided.

The transition services agreements will also contain customary mutual indemnification provisions.

Any extension or renewal of services under any transition services agreement beyond the period specified with respect to such service will be subject to the mutual agreement of McDermott and us.

109

Board of Directors

As of the distribution date, we expect that our board of directors will consist of 7 directors. The New York Stock Exchange requires that a majority of our board of directors qualify as “independent” according to the rules and regulations of the SEC and the New York Stock Exchange. We intend to comply with those requirements.

Upon completion of the spin-off, our directors will be divided into three classes serving staggered three-year terms. Class I directors will have an initial term expiring in 2011, Class II directors will have an initial term expiring in 2012 and Class III directors will have an initial term expiring in 2013. Class I will be comprised of Messrs. Bethards, Kingsley and McWilliams, Class II will be comprised of Messrs. Goldman and Hanks, and Class III will be comprised of Mr. Fees and Admiral Mies.

At each annual meeting of stockholders, directors will be elected to succeed the class of directors whose terms have expired. This classification of our board of directors could have the effect of increasing the length of time necessary to change the composition of a majority of the board of directors. Following this classification of the board, in general, at least two annual meetings of stockholders will be necessary for stockholders to effect a change in a majority of the members of the board of directors.

Committees of Our Board of Directors

Upon completion of the spin-off, the committees of our board of directors are expected to consist of an Audit Committee, a Governance Committee, a Compensation Committee and an Environmental, Health and Safety Committee.

Each of the Audit, Governance and Compensation Committees will be comprised entirely of independent nonmanagement directors. Our board of directors will adopt a written charter for each committee, which will be posted on our Web site prior to the distribution date. The expected members of the committees are identified in the following table.

	Board Committee
Director	Audit	Compensation	Governance	Environmental, Health and Safety
John A. Fees				ü
Robert W. Goldman	ü	ü	ü	ü
Stephen G. Hanks	ü	ü	ü	ü
Oliver D. Kingsley, Jr.	ü	ü	ü	ü
D. Brad McWilliams	ü	ü	ü	ü
Richard W. Mies	ü	ü	ü	ü

We expect that Mr. Goldman will be the chairman of the Audit Committee; Mr. Kingsley will be the chairman of the Compensation Committee; Mr. McWilliams will be the chairman of the Governance Committee; and Admiral Mies will be the chairman of the Environmental, Health and Safety Committee.

Audit Committee. The Audit Committee’s role will be financial oversight. Our management will be responsible for preparing financial statements, and our independent registered public accounting firm will be responsible for auditing those financial statements. The Audit Committee will not be providing any expert or special assurance as to our financial statements or any professional certification as to the independent registered public accounting firm’s work.

The Audit Committee will be directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of our independent registered public accounting firm. The committee, among other things, will also

113

review and discuss our audited financial statements with management and the independent registered public accounting firm.

Our board has determined that Messrs. Goldman, Hanks, Kingsley and McWilliams and Admiral Mies each qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” within the definition established by the SEC.

Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee will have overall responsibility for our officer compensation plans, policies and programs and will have the authority to engage and terminate any compensation consultant or other advisors to assist the committee in the discharge of its responsibilities. Please see the “Executive Compensation—Compensation Discussion and Analysis” for information about our executive officer compensation.

Governance Committee. The Governance Committee, in addition to other matters, will recommend to our board of directors: (1) the qualifications, term limits and nomination and election procedures relating to our directors; (2) nominees for election to our board of directors; and (3) compensation of nonmanagement directors.

The Governance Committee has determined that a candidate for election to our board of directors must meet specific minimum qualifications. The Governance Committee considers each candidate’s:

• record of integrity and ethics in his/her personal and professional life;

• record of professional accomplishment in his/her field;

• preparedness to represent the best interests of our stockholders;

• personal, financial or professional interest in any competitor of ours; and

• preparedness to participate fully in board activities, including active membership on at least one board committee and attendance at, and active participation in, meetings of the board and the committee(s) of which he or she is a member, and lack of other personal or professional commitments that would, in the Governance Committee’s sole judgment, interfere with or limit his or her ability to do so.

In addition, the Governance Committee also considers it desirable that candidates possess the following qualities or skills:

• each candidate should contribute positively to the collaborative culture among board members; and

• each candidate should possess professional and personal experiences and expertise relevant to our businesses and industries.

While B&W does not have a specific policy addressing board diversity, the board recognizes the benefits of a diversified board and believes that any search for potential director candidates should consider diversity as to gender, ethnic background and personal and professional experiences.

The Governance Committee will solicit ideas for possible candidates from a number of sources—including members of the board, our senior level executives and individuals personally known to the members of the board.

Any stockholder may nominate one or more persons for election as one of our directors at an annual meeting of stockholders if the stockholder complies with the notice, information and consent provisions contained in our bylaws.

The Governance Committee will consider candidates identified through the processes described above and will evaluate each of them, including incumbents, based on the same criteria. The Governance Committee will also take into account the contributions of incumbent directors as board members and the benefits to us arising from their experience on the board. Although the Governance Committee will consider candidates identified by stockholders, the Governance Committee has sole discretion whether to recommend those candidates to the board.

114

Each expected B&W director brings a strong and unique background and set of skills to the Board, giving the Board as a whole competence and experience in a wide variety of areas. The following experiences and qualifications were considered in concluding each individual would be an appropriate member of the board of directors of B&W:

Mr. Bethards has been affiliated with B&W for 36 years, having started with the predecessor to B&W PGG in the early 1970s. He has held a number of management positions within the B&W organization, including most recently as President and Chief Executive Officer. His tenure with the company, experience in the power industry and in depth knowledge of the operations and culture of B&W make him highly qualified to serve our stockholders.

Mr. Fees’ service as Chief Executive Officer of McDermott and member of McDermott’s board of directors makes him well qualified to serve as Chairman of the Board of B&W. Prior to becoming McDermott’s Chief Executive Officer in 2008, Mr. Fees led a distinguished career at B&W for nearly 30 years. During his time with B&W, Mr. Fees held numerous management positions within B&W’s Government Operations segment, including President and Chief Operating Officer, and served as B&W’s President and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Fees’ experiences provide him with extensive knowledge of B&W’s businesses and strong leadership skills. Mr. Fees also currently serves on the Board of Directors of the Nuclear Energy Institute.

Mr. Goldman has an extensive background in corporate finance. While serving as Chief Financial Officer of Conoco, Inc., Mr. Goldman played vital roles in the initial public offering and split-off of Conoco, Inc. from DuPont and the subsequent merger of Conoco and Phillips Petroleum. Mr. Goldman chairs the finance committee of El Paso Corporation and the governance committee of Tesoro Corporation while serving on the audit committees of both companies and the compensation committee of Parker Drilling Company. He is a member of the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees of Kenyon College and chairs its Budget, Finance and Audit Committee. He also chaired McDermott’s Finance Committee and served as a member of its Audit Committee. This experience will benefit him as the expected Chairman of B&W’s Audit Committee and as a member of the Audit Committee.

Mr. Hanks served as Chief Executive Officer and a member of the board of Washington Group International for eight years. That company was acquired by URS Corporation, a publicly traded engineering, construction and technical services firm and one of the companies in our Custom Peer Group. He has extensive financial experience, having served as Chief Financial Officer of Morrison Knudsen Corporation, and he currently serves on the audit committee of Lincoln Electric Holdings, Inc.

Mr. Kingsley brings vast knowledge of the nuclear power generation business to the board of B&W. He serves on the board of FPL, Inc., a provider of electricity related services, and previously served as President and Chief Operating Officer of Exelon Corporation, an integrated utility company and a customer and supplier to one of our principal operating subsidiaries. He previously served as President of the World Association of Nuclear Operators. Throughout his career, Mr. Kingsley has had direct operating and oversight responsibility for major U.S. nuclear power plants. He is a member of the National Academy of Engineering and has received numerous awards given in the United States for nuclear excellence and achievement.

He currently serves on the nuclear and audit committees of FPL, Inc.

Mr. McWilliams has an extensive background in public accounting and is a Certified Public Accountant and licensed attorney. He served as Chief Financial Officer of Cooper Industries for nine years and in other financial and legal functions for over 22 years. In addition, he served for 12 years as chairman of the audit committee of another public company.

Admiral Mies’ distinguished career as a nuclear submariner in the U.S. Navy and as a former Senior Vice President of Science Applications International Corporation has provided him with extensive experience in

115

nuclear operations, executive leadership and U.S. Government procurement activities. He served as the Senior Operations Commander of the U.S. Submarine Force and as the Commander in Chief of U.S. Strategic Command. He brings to the Board an extensive understanding of the U.S. Government, the single largest customer of B&W. He serves on the boards of Exelon Corporation and Mutual of Omaha and has extensive audit and governance committee experience.

Our Governance Committee will have primary oversight responsibility for our compliance and ethics program, excluding certain oversight responsibilities assigned to the Audit Committee. In conjunction with the Compensation Committee, the Governance Committee will oversee the annual evaluation of our Chief Executive Officer.

Director Compensation

Our nonemployee directors will receive compensation for their service on the board. We expect the cash compensation for our nonemployee directors will consist of the following:

• an annual retainer of $45,000 (prorated for partial terms); and

• a fee of $2,500 for each board meeting personally attended, $1,750 for each committee meeting personally attended and $1,000 for each board and committee meeting attended by telephone.

We expect the chairs of board committees, the Non-Executive Chairman and the Lead Director will receive additional annual retainers as follows (pro-rated for partial terms):

• the chair of the Audit Committee: $20,000;

• the chair of the Compensation Committee: $15,000;

• the chair of the Governance Committee: $10,000;

• the chair of the Environmental, Health and Safety Committee: $15,000;

• the Non-Executive Chairman: $175,000; and

• the Lead Director: $10,000.

In addition, we also expect our nonemployee directors will receive annual stock-based awards with a value of $110,000, subject to future adjustments as the Governance Committee and our board of directors may approve. In addition, Mr. Fees will receive a grant of stock-based awards with a value of $110,000 following the completion of the spin-off.

Our nonemployee directors will also be reimbursed for any expenses associated with attending board or committee meetings.

Executive Compensation

Our executive compensation program is described in “Executive Compensation—Compensation Discussion and Analysis.”

Compensation Policies and Practices and Risk

The McDermott Compensation Committee has concluded that risks arising from McDermott’s compensation policies and practices for McDermott employees (including our employees) are not reasonably

116

likely to have a materially adverse effect on McDermott. In reaching this conclusion, the McDermott Compensation Committee considered the policies and practices in the following paragraph.

The McDermott Compensation Committee regularly reviews the design of significant compensation programs with the assistance of its compensation consultant. We believe these compensation programs motivate and retain our employees while allowing for appropriate levels of business risk through the following features:

• Reasonable Compensation Programs—Using the elements of total direct compensation, the McDermott Compensation Committee seeks to provide compensation opportunities for employees targeted at or near the median compensation of comparable positions in the market. As a result, we believe the total direct compensation of employees provides a reasonable and appropriate mix of cash and equity, annual and longer-term incentives, and performance metrics.

• Emphasize Long-Term Incentive Over Annual Incentive Compensation—Long-term incentive compensation typically makes up a larger percentage of a participating employee’s target total direct compensation than annual incentive compensation. Incentive compensation helps drive performance and align the interests of employees with those of shareholders. However, tying a significant portion of an employee’s total direct compensation to long-term incentives (which typically vest over a period of three or more years) also helps to promote longer-term perspectives regarding company performance.

• Long-Term Incentive Compensation Subject to Forfeiture—The McDermott Compensation Committee may terminate any outstanding stock award if the recipient (1) is convicted of a misdemeanor involving fraud, dishonesty or moral turpitude or a felony, or (2) engages in conduct that adversely affects or may reasonably be expected to adversely affect McDermott’s business reputation or economic interests.

• Linear and Capped Incentive Compensation Payouts—The McDermott Compensation Committee establishes financial performance goals which are used to plot a linear payout formula for annual and long-term incentive compensation, eliminating payout “cliffs” between the established performance goals. The maximum payout for both the annual and long-term incentive compensation is capped at 200% percent of target.

• Use of Multiple and Appropriate Performance Metrics—Utilizing diversified performance measures helps prevent compensation opportunities from being overly weighted toward the performance result of a single measure. In general, McDermott’s incentive programs are historically based on a mix of financial and individual goals. Additionally, McDermott’s primary financial performance metric has been a mix of consolidated and segment operating income. Compared to other financial metrics, operating income is a measure of the profitability of McDermott’s business, which helps drive accountability at McDermott’s operating segments, thereby reducing risks related to incentive compensation by putting the focus on quality of revenues not quantity.

• Stock Ownership Guidelines—McDermott’s executive officers and directors are subject to share ownership guidelines, which also helps promote longer-term perspectives and align the interests of McDermott’s executive officers and directors with those of McDermott’s shareholders.

We expect that the B&W Compensation Committee will establish similar policies and practices.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

None of our executive officers have served as members of a compensation committee (or if no committee performs that function, the board of directors) of any other entity that has an executive officer serving as a member of our board of directors.

Security Ownership of Executive Officers and Directors

We are currently wholly owned by McDermott. Immediately following the spin-off, McDermott will not own any shares of our common stock. None of our officers or directors own any shares of our common stock, but

117

those who own unrestricted shares of McDermott common stock will be treated the same as any other holder of McDermott common stock in any distribution by McDermott and, accordingly, will receive shares of our common stock in the spin-off. As described under “—Treatment of Stock-Based Awards,” our executive officers and directors will receive stock options, shares of restricted stock, restricted stock units and deferred stock units in respect of our common stock following the closing of the spin-off.

The following table sets forth the McDermott common stock, stock options, shares of restricted stock, restricted stock units and deferred stock units held by our directors and our executive officers, as of [            ], and the number of shares of our common stock that will be held by our directors and our executive officers immediately upon completion of the spin-off, assuming there are no changes in each person’s holdings of McDermott securities since [            ] and based on our estimates as of [            ] assuming the distribution of one share of our common stock for every [            ] shares of McDermott common stock, with no fractional shares:

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

The following Compensation Discussion and Analysis, or CD&A, provides information relevant to understanding the 2009 compensation of our executive officers identified in the Summary Compensation Table below under the caption “Compensation of Executive Officers,” whom we refer to as our Named Executives. The following discussion also contains statements regarding future individual and company performance targets and goals. These targets and goals are disclosed in the limited context of our compensation programs and should not be understood to be statements of management’s expectations or estimates of results or other guidance. We caution investors not to apply these statements to other contexts.

Summary

The Babcock & Wilcox Company is currently a wholly owned subsidiary of McDermott, which will, following the spin-off, own the subsidiaries that currently conduct the operations of McDermott’s Power Generation Systems and Government Operations segments. For purposes of this CD&A, unless the context otherwise indicates or requires, we use “B&W” to refer to McDermott’s Power Generation Systems and Government Operations segments, collectively. Our executive compensation program has been designed by the Compensation Committee of McDermott’s Board of Directors (“McDermott’s Compensation Committee”). Historically, including during 2009, McDermott’s senior management, in consultation with our senior management, has supported McDermott’s Compensation Committee in administering the compensation matters related to our Named Executives. Following the spin-off, our executive compensation program will be administered by the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors (the “B&W Compensation Committee”). The responsibilities of the B&W Compensation Committee are described in “Management—Committees of Our Board of Directors” above.

For purposes of this CD&A, we refer to the following persons as our Named Executives:

• Brandon C. Bethards, President and Chief Executive Officer, B&W

• Michael S. Taff, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, McDermott and B&W

• Richard L. Killion, President and Chief Operating Officer, Babcock & Wilcox Power Generation Group, Inc.

• Christofer M. Mowry, President, B&W Nuclear Energy, Inc.

• Winfred D. Nash, President, Babcock & Wilcox Nuclear Operations Group, Inc.

Prior to the spin-off, all of our Named Executives except for Mr. Taff have been employees of B&W. Mr. Taff is an employee of McDermott Incorporated, a wholly owned subsidiary of McDermott, and serves as the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of both McDermott and B&W. In connection with the spin-off, he is expected to become an employee of B&W and continue as its Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. Since this CD&A focuses primarily on B&W’s compensation programs and decisions affecting 2009 compensation of our Named Executives, compensation information for Mr. Taff relates to his role as an officer of McDermott.

119

Overview of Compensation Programs and Objectives

Philosophy and Objectives. Our compensation programs are based on McDermott’s belief that the ability to attract, retain and motivate qualified employees to develop, expand and execute sound business opportunities throughout McDermott and its subsidiaries, including B&W, is essential to its success. To that end, McDermott’s Compensation Committee, with the assistance of its compensation consultant, designs and administers compensation programs with the participation of McDermott’s and our management that generally seek to provide compensation that:

• incentivizes and rewards short- and long-term performance, continuity of service and individual contributions; and

• promotes retention of well-qualified executives, while aligning the interests of our executives with those of McDermott’s shareholders.

For 2009, McDermott’s Compensation Committee targeted reasonable and competitive compensation for our Named Executives, with a significant portion of that compensation being performance-based. Specifically, for our Named Executives:

• 2009 target total direct compensation was within 10%-15% of the median compensation of officers in comparable positions in the market applicable to them;

• 60% of target long-term incentive compensation for 2009 was performance-based; and

• performance-based compensation accounted for over 50% of 2009 target total direct compensation.

The performance-based compensation that paid out in 2009 also reflected the commitment of McDermott’s Compensation Committee to pay for performance. B&W’s cumulative operating income of over $1.1 billion for the three-year period ended December 31, 2009 represents the largest amount of operating income in any three-year period since B&W was acquired by McDermott in 1978. As a result, our Named Executives earned payments at the maximum level under performance shares granted in 2006, which vested in 2009. Our Named Executives were also eligible to earn near the maximum annual incentive compensation payout based on McDermott’s consolidated and combined Power Generation Systems and Government Operations segments, as applicable, operating income for 2009. As designed by McDermott’s Compensation Committee, individual performance helped differentiate among the Named Executives’ annual incentive compensation payouts for 2009.

Compensation Consultant. In designing its executive compensation program, McDermott’s Compensation Committee engaged an outside compensation consultant, Hewitt Associates, LLC, or Hewitt. Hewitt has served as the consultant to McDermott’s Compensation Committee on executive and director compensation since October 2007. During 2009, Hewitt advised McDermott’s Compensation Committee on all principal elements of McDermott’s compensation programs and attended meetings of McDermott’s Compensation Committee and participated in executive sessions without members of McDermott’s management present. In 2009, Hewitt provided advice and analysis on the design, structure and level of executive and director compensation. It also provided McDermott’s Governance Committee and its Board advice and analysis regarding nonmanagement director compensation. In connection with Hewitt’s services to McDermott’s Compensation Committee, in 2009 Hewitt sought and received input from McDermott’s executive management on various matters and worked with McDermott’s executive management to formalize proposals for McDermott’s Compensation Committee. In 2009, Hewitt did not perform any other services for McDermott or us, other than assisting McDermott’s management in preparing the performance graph included in McDermott’s annual report on Form 10-K. Hewitt had been providing that service to McDermott’s management for several years prior to serving as McDermott’s Compensation Committee’s consultant, and the fees for that service amounted to less than $2,000 in 2009. Following the spin-off, we expect that our senior management will continue to support the administration of the compensation programs on behalf of B&W’s Compensation Committee in a manner and scope similar to that which has been provided by McDermott’s management.

120

On February 1, 2010, Hewitt spun-off its executive compensation business into a separate company known as Meridian Compensation Partners LLC. Since the spin-off, Meridian, rather than Hewitt, has been advising McDermott’s Compensation Committee with respect to the matters described above.

Elements. With the objectives outlined above in mind, McDermott’s Compensation Committee approves annual compensation for Named Executives principally consisting of the following three elements:

• annual base salary;

• annual incentives; and

• long-term incentives.

Collectively, we refer to these elements as the “total direct compensation” of a Named Executive.

Annual base salary provides a fixed level of compensation that helps attract and retain highly qualified executives. Annual incentive and long-term incentive compensation are the principal performance-based components of a Named Executive’s compensation. The annual incentive element is cash-based compensation generally designed to incentivize a Named Executive to achieve performance goals relative to the then-current fiscal year. Historically, long-term incentives have generally been in the form of McDermott equity-based awards and were designed to retain and closely align the interests of Named Executives with McDermott’s shareholders. Similar to annual incentive compensation, performance-based long-term incentive compensation is designed to promote the achievement of performance goals, only over a longer period—typically of three or more years.

As we discuss in more detail below, McDermott’s Compensation Committee also administers several plans as part of our post-employment compensation arrangements designed to reward long-term service and performance.

Target Total Direct Compensation. McDermott’s Compensation Committee seeks to provide reasonable and competitive compensation. As a result, it targets the elements of total direct compensation for our Named Executives generally within 10%-15% of the median compensation of our market for comparable positions. Throughout this CD&A, we refer to compensation that is within 10%-15% of market median as “market range” compensation.

McDermott’s Compensation Committee may set elements of total direct compensation above or below the market range to account for a Named Executive’s performance and experience, and other factors or situations that are not typically captured by looking at standard market data and practices that McDermott’s Compensation Committee deems relevant to the appropriateness and/or competitiveness of a Named Executive’s compensation.

When making decisions regarding individual compensation elements, McDermott’s Compensation Committee also considers the effect on the Named Executive’s target total direct compensation and target total cash-based compensation (annual base salary and annual incentives), as applicable. The goal of McDermott’s Compensation Committee is to establish target compensation for each element it considers appropriate to support the compensation objectives that, when combined, create a target total direct compensation award for each Named Executive that is reasonable and competitive.

Defining Market Range Compensation—Benchmarking. To identify median compensation for each element of total direct compensation, McDermott’s Compensation Committee relies on “benchmarking”—reviewing the compensation of our Named Executives relative to the compensation paid to similarly situated executives at companies we consider our peers. As a result, the annual base salary, target annual incentive compensation and target long-term incentive compensation as a whole for each of the Named Executives is benchmarked. However, the specific performance metrics and performance levels used within elements of annual and long-term incentive compensation are designed for the principal purpose of supporting our strategic and financial goals and/or driving the creation of shareholder value, and, as a result, are not generally benchmarked.

121

At the request of McDermott’s Compensation Committee, Hewitt conducted a market compensation analysis and provided advice regarding the median compensation of the three elements of total direct compensation for McDermott’s officers, including the Named Executives. Using 2008 survey data from its proprietary compensation database (adjusted approximately 2.9% upwards by Hewitt for the purpose of bringing the market data current), Hewitt collected information from companies generally reflecting the size, scope and complexity of the business and executive talent at McDermott and B&W. To account for the size of our operations relative to peer companies, Hewitt used regression analysis to adjust the market information on peer companies based on revenue. To account for the diversity of geography and industry among McDermott’s operations, Hewitt analyzed information from two principal peer groups, the Corporate Group and the Babcock & Wilcox Group. In this CD&A references to “market” or “our market” are references to the compensation of companies within the Corporate Group or Babcock & Wilcox Group, as applicable.

Babcock & Wilcox Group. With assistance from McDermott’s management, Hewitt compiled this group as the primary benchmark for McDermott’s executives at its Power Generation Systems and Government Operations segments, including Messrs. Bethards, Killion, Mowry and Nash. The group consisted of 31 engineering, construction and/or governments operations companies that are representative of our Power Generation Systems and Government Operations segments. The component companies within this group included:

Ameron International Corporation	Honeywell International, Inc.	The Shaw Group Inc.
Chicago Bridge & Iron Company N.V.	Hubbell, Inc.	Terex Corporation
Cooper Industries Plc	Illinois Tool Works Inc.	Textron, Inc.
Curtiss-Wright Corporation	Ingersoll-Rand Co. Ltd.	Thomas & Betts Corporation
Dover Corporation	ITT Corporation	USG Corporation
Eaton Corporation	Joy Global, Inc.	Valmont Industries, Inc.
ESCO Technologies Inc.	Lockheed Martin Corporation	Vulcan Materials Company
Flowserve Corporation	Martin Marietta Materials, Inc.	Walter Industries Inc.
Foster Wheeler AG	Northrop Grumman Corporation	Washington Group International Inc.
General Dynamics Corporation	Raytheon Company
Granite Construction, Inc.	Rockwell Collins, Inc.

Corporate Group. With assistance from our management, Hewitt compiled this group as the primary benchmark for McDermott’s executives at its corporate segment, including Mr. Taff. The group consisted of the companies comprising the Babcock & Wilcox Group in addition to 13 additional companies with operations in engineering, construction, and/or energy that constitute a mixture of companies that are representative of McDermott’s three operating segments: Offshore Oil & Gas Construction, Power Generation Systems and Government Operations. The component companies of this group included:

Alliant Techsystems Inc.	Flowserve Corporation	Noble Corporation
Ameron International Corporation	FMC Technologies, Inc.	Northrop Grumman Corporation
Anadarko Petroleum Corporation	Foster Wheeler AG	Pioneer Natural Resources Company
Baker Hughes, Inc.	General Dynamics Corporation	Raytheon Company
BJ Services Company	Granite Construction Incorporated	Rockwell Collins, Inc.
Cameron International, Inc.	Halliburton Company	The Shaw Group Inc.
Chesapeake Energy Corporation.	Honeywell International, Inc.	The Williams Companies, Inc.
Chicago Bridge & Iron Company N.V.	Hubbell Inc.	Terex Corporation
Cooper Industries Plc	Illinois Tool Works Inc.	Textron Inc.
Curtiss-Wright Corporation	Ingersoll-Rand Plc	Thomas & Betts Corporation
Devon Energy Corporation	ITT Corporation	USG Corporation
Dover Corporation	Joy Global Inc.	Valmont Industries, Inc.
Eaton Corporation	KBR, Inc.	Vulcan Materials Company
El Paso Corporation	Lockheed Martin Corporation	Walter Industries, Inc.
ESCO Technologies Inc.	Martin Marietta Materials, Inc.

122

In addition to these peer groups, Hewitt supplemented the market data with other publicly available compensation information related to companies in a peer group identified by McDermott’s management and Hewitt in October 2007, which we refer to as the “Custom Peer Group.” The Custom Peer Group consists of nine engineering and construction companies and is the same group McDermott uses in the performance graph included in its annual report on Form 10-K. The Custom Peer Group is comprised of the following companies: Cal Dive International, Inc.; Chicago Bridge & Iron Company N.V.; Fluor Corporation; Foster Wheeler AG; Jacobs Engineering Group Inc.; KBR, Inc.; Oceaneering International, Inc.; The Shaw Group Inc.; and URS Corporation. Of the Custom Peer Group companies, Chicago Bridge & Iron Company N.V., Foster Wheeler AG and The Shaw Group Inc. are also companies within the Corporate Group and Babcock & Wilcox Group, while KBR, Inc. is also a member of the Corporate Group. Compensation information for Custom Peer Group companies was based on information reported by those companies in publicly available Securities and Exchange Commission filings. The information available was largely limited to the five highest paid positions at the company and generally based on 2007 compensation. As a result, in 2009, the Custom Peer Group was not weighted in the calculation to determine median compensation, except to the extent any of its component companies was also a component company in the Babcock & Wilcox Group or the Corporate Group. Accordingly, McDermott’s Compensation Committee relied on the Corporate Group and the Babcock & Wilcox Group, as applicable, to determine the market range of 2009 compensation for our Named Executives, and the Custom Peer Group had no effect on the market range of compensation.

Total Direct Compensation

2009 Overview. The 2009 target total direct compensation for each of our Named Executives was within the market range of target total direct compensation. The chart below shows the 2009 target total direct compensation by element for each Named Executive. Because some compensation elements are performance-based, Named Executives are capable of earning compensation above or below the market range for similarly situated executives in our market.

2009 Target Total Direct Compensation Summary

Named Executive	Annual Base Salary		Annual Incentive* (% of  Salary)		Long-Term Incentive* (% of  Salary)		Total Direct Compensation* (% of Market**)
B.C. Bethards	$	526,200	70	%	286	%	98	%
M.S. Taff	$	505,000	70	%	348	%	102	%
R. L. Killion	$	330,000	55	%	168	%	99	%
C.M. Mowry	$	355,000	45	%	100	%	108	%
W.D. Nash	$	348,000	50	%	144	%	111	%

* When making decisions as to the elements of a Named Executive’s total direct compensation, McDermott’s Compensation Committee considers the dollar value of annual incentive and long-term incentive compensation, but typically awards these elements as percentages of annual base salary. This is primarily because McDermott’s market generally targets these elements on a percentage-of-salary basis. See “—Long-Term Incentive Compensation—Analysis of 2009 Equity Grants” below for a discussion of how equity grants are valued.

** Market = Median target annual incentive compensation based on the benchmark applicable to the executive. 100% represents median compensation.

While McDermott’s Compensation Committee does not set a specific target allocation among the elements of total direct compensation, it believes that a significant portion of a Named Executive’s total direct compensation should be performance-based. On average, performance-based compensation accounted for approximately 51% of a Named Executive’s 2009 target total direct compensation and 60% of his long-term incentive compensation.

Annual Base Salary

2009 Base Salaries. In January 2009, McDermott’s Compensation Committee was provided with (1) the recommendation of McDermott’s Chief Executive Officer as to 2009 base salaries for Messrs. Bethards and Taff,

123

(2) the recommendation of Mr. Bethards, made in consultation with McDermott’s Chief Executive Officer, as to the 2009 base salaries for Messrs. Killion, Mowry and Nash, and (3) Hewitt’s analysis of market compensation (as adjusted by Hewitt to January 2009). Hewitt’s market analysis compared the recommended base salary and the target total direct compensation of each officer (assuming 2009 salary recommendations were approved) to the median compensation of the applicable market.

The 2009 base salaries for our Named Executives were as follows:

Named Executive	2009 Annual Base Salary		Percent of Market(1)
B.C. Bethards	$	526,200	100	%
M.S. Taff	$	505,000	88	%
R.L. Killion	$	330,000	95	%
C.M. Mowry	$	355,000	108	%
W.D. Nash	$	348,000	110	%

(1) Market = Median annual base salary based on the benchmark applicable to the executive. 100% represents median compensation.

McDermott’s Compensation Committee sought to, and we expect B&W’s Compensation Committee will continue to, position each Named Executive in the market range (+/- 10-15%) of median base salaries indicated by market data. In addition to market data, in response to the slowdown in global economic conditions that began in 2008, McDermott’s Compensation Committee sought to limit increases in 2009 base salaries for its officers, including our Named Executives, to an average increase of 3-4%, with limited exceptions based on individual circumstances, in line with the median increase among companies in our market. Mr. Bethards’ base salary did not change because he received a substantial increase in October 2008 in connection with his promotion and McDermott’s Compensation Committee believed his salary was appropriate relative to the market. Mr. Taff, whose base salary was substantially below market in 2008, received an above-average increase in base salary to bring his base salary within the market range for his position. Messrs. Killion and Nash each received a slightly higher than average increase in base salary to reflect, in Mr. Killion’s case, internal pay equity among officers, and, in Mr. Nash’s case, the increased scope of operations for which he was responsible as a result of B&W’s acquisition of Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc. in December 2008.

Annual Incentive Compensation

2009 Overview and Target Compensation. McDermott’s Compensation Committee administers the annual incentive compensation program under its Executive Incentive Compensation Plan, which we refer to as the EICP.

The EICP is a cash incentive plan designed to motivate and reward officers and key employees of McDermott and its subsidiaries, including our Named Executives, for their contributions to business goals and other factors that McDermott believes drive its earnings and/or creates shareholder value.

The 2009 target EICP compensation for our Named Executives was as follows:

Named Executive	Target EICP (% of annual base salary)		Percent of Market(1)
B.C. Bethards	70	%	86	%
M.S. Taff	70	%	89	%
R.L. Killion	55	%	92	%
C.M. Mowry	45	%	105	%
W.D. Nash	50	%	94	%

(1) Market = Median target annual incentive compensation based on the benchmark applicable to the executive. 100% represents median compensation.

McDermott’s Compensation Committee set 2009 target EICP compensation for our Named Executives at the same percentage of base salary as it established for 2008 target EICP compensation, with the exception of

124

Messrs. Taff and Nash. The 2008 target EICP percentage for those two executives was below or at the limit of the 2009 market range of competitive compensation. As a result, Mr. Taff’s 2009 target EICP compensation was increased from 55% of his annual base salary to bring him within the 2009 market range and was set at a level commensurate with other McDermott executive officers. Similarly, Mr. Nash’s 2009 target EICP compensation was increased from 45% of his annual base salary to more closely align his 2009 EICP target with market-median annual incentive compensation. Additionally, for Mr. Nash, consideration was also given to the increased scope of operations for which he was responsible as a result of B&W’s acquisition of Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc. in December 2008.

2009 EICP Performance Goals. EICP compensation consists of a financial performance component and an individual performance component. The 2009 target EICP was split between these two components as follows:

• 70% of target EICP was attributable to financial performance; and

• 30% of target EICP was attributable to individual performance.

Financial performance is the largest factor in determining EICP compensation because McDermott’s Compensation Committee generally considers it to be more objective and to more directly influence the creation of shareholder value, as compared to individual performance. McDermott’s Compensation Committee, however, recognizes that individual performance can serve an important role in helping promote the achievement of strategic, non-financial goals. To reward significant individual contributions, McDermott’s Compensation Committee increased the representation of the individual component from 15% to 30% of target EICP for 2009, as compared to 2008. However, to maintain the emphasis on financial performance, financial results determined the amount eligible to be paid under EICP compensation (irrespective of the level of individual performance attained). For example, if target financial performance was attained, then a Named Executive would be eligible to receive up to a target payout under the financial component and individual component. No EICP compensation would be earned (including for individual performance) unless the threshold level of financial performance was attained and the maximum EICP compensation a Named Executive could earn in 2009 was 200% of target EICP.

2009 Financial Goals. The 2009 financial goals consisted of operating income levels related to McDermott and/or B&W operations relevant to each Named Executive. In some instances a Named Executive may have operating income goals for more than one operation, in which case the financial goals were weighted toward the operations over which the Named Executive had primary responsibility. McDermott’s Compensation Committee considers operating income an appropriate financial measure to use for compensation purposes, because it is the primary driver of net income, which McDermott’s Compensation Committee expects to drive McDermott’s stock price. In comparison to net income, however, operating income is more directly influenced by the revenues generated and costs incurred as a result of management action and is more readily attributable to McDermott’s operating segments.

Within the financial performance component, McDermott’s Compensation Committee historically established three levels of operating income goals. These levels would determine the threshold, target and maximum amounts that would be paid under the financial component of the EICP, with target level being based on management’s internal projections of operating income and threshold and maximum levels set as a percentage of the target level. McDermott’s Compensation Committee designs incentive plans to drive target level performance and does not believe that compensation should be earned for performance substantially below that level. As a result, no EICP compensation would be earned (including for individual performance) unless a threshold level of financial performance was attained. McDermott’s Compensation Committee believes that Named Executives should be rewarded for superior financial performance. It therefore establishes a maximum level performance goal to incentivize higher performance, but caps the payout to maximize returns to shareholders for performance above the maximum payout level and reduce risk related to incentive compensation.

The performance range between the threshold level and the maximum level was relatively narrow prior to 2009. For instance, in 2008, the operating income goals ranged between 75% of target operating income at the

125

threshold payout level and 108% of target operating income at the maximum payout level. With operating income goals set within a range of 33% determining a payout range of 200%, relatively small changes in performance results produced large variations in EICP payouts.

For 2009, McDermott’s Compensation Committee sought to increase the performance range between threshold and maximum level goals, making the maximum payment more difficult relative to target and reducing the minimum performance required to be attained before any EICP compensation would be earned. In addition, McDermott’s Compensation Committee established a range for target level performance comprised of three separate operating income goals. The intended effect of these changes was to reduce the significance of the impact of minor variations in financial results, thereby reducing the risk related to the EICP.

McDermott’s Compensation Committee considered a number of performance goals recommended by management, including threshold level goals as low as 50% of target operating income and maximum level goals as high as 150% of target operating income. With the advice of Hewitt, McDermott’s Compensation Committee set the threshold level operating income goal at 70% of target and the maximum level operating income goal at 120% of target. The operating income goals at the target level ranged from 95% of the target goal to 105% of the target goal.

As a result, a Named Executive would have been eligible to earn the following amounts under the 2009 EICP based on attaining the following levels of operating income:

• 25% of target EICP compensation at threshold level operating income;

• 92.5% of target EICP compensation at target (min) level operating income;

• 100% of target EICP compensation at target level operating income;

• 107.5% of target EICP compensation at target (max) level operating income; and

• 200% of target EICP compensation at maximum level operating income.

For other levels of operating income between threshold and maximum, the percentage paid would have been determined by linear interpolation using the two neighboring pre-established performance levels and percentage payout. No payment would have been earned under the EICP for 2009 if operating income results had been below the threshold level.

In 2009, the B&W operating units produced operating income of approximately $312.4 million, which exceeded the target level performance goal but not the maximum level. B&W’s 2009 operating income included expense relating to the mPower^™ modular nuclear reactor initiative. Relative to annual/incentive compensation, the mPower^™ initiative is longer-term in nature. To avoid adversely impacting a Named Executive’s EICP compensation for strategic investments, the performance was adjusted to exclude approximately $13 million of the mPower^™ expenses. As a result, for purposes of calculating 2009 EICP payments, B&W’s operating income was approximately $325.7 million, which exceeded the target level performance goal but not the maximum level.

2009 Individual Goals. Individual goals established for each Named Executive were tailored to the individual’s position and focused on supporting strategic initiatives and achieving common goals. McDermott’s Chief Executive Officer established the individual goals for Messrs. Bethards and Taff, while the remaining Named Executives proposed their respective individual goals which were approved by Mr. Bethards in consultation with McDermott’s Chief Executive Officer. The Named Executives’ individual goals and target weightings are set forth in the tables below.

2009 Annual Incentive Compensation. The following is a description of the performance goals and the evaluation relating to each Named Executive’s 2009 annual incentive compensation:

Brandon C. Bethards

• Financial Goals. McDermott’s Compensation Committee believed that as an executive officer of McDermott during 2009, a portion of Mr. Bethards’ annual incentive compensation should be based on McDermott’s consolidated financial results. However, as Chief Executive Officer of B&W, he was directly responsible for the operations of McDermott’s Power Generation Systems and Government Operations segments. As a result, 50% of his 2009 target EICP was based on the operating income from those two segments and 20% was based on McDermott’s consolidated operating income. The financial goals and payout percentage for 2009 are outlined in the table below.

Performance Measures ($ in millions)	Target EICP %		Threshold 25%		92.5%		Target 100%		107.5%		Maximum 200%		2009 Result		Payout Percentage
Operating Income (B&W)	50	%	$	191.7	$	260.2	$	273.9	$	287.6	$	328.7	$	325.7	195	%
Operating Income (McDermott(1))	20	%	$	241.9	$	328.2	$	345.5	$	362.8	$	414.6	$	546.5	200	%

(1) Consolidated operating income levels equal the sum of McDermott’s segment operating income less unallocated corporate operating expenses.

• Individual Goals. The individual goals and target weighting for Mr. Bethards were as follows:

• achieve specific levels of health, safety and environmental performance averages relating to three metrics at our Power Generation Systems and Government Operations segments (10%);

• successfully manage the completion of the initial phase of a strategic global financial implementation project as it relates to B&W entities (10%); and

• achieve successful integration of a specified acquisition as defined by the integration plan milestones (10%).

• Evaluation of 2009 Performance and Payment of 2009 EICP Compensation. For purposes of evaluating B&W financial performance for 2009, B&W’s operating income results for 2009 excluded approximately $13 million of expense related to B&W’s mPower^TM initiative. Mr. Bethards earned a 195% payout on the financial component related to B&W operating income and a 200% payout on the financial component related to McDermott operating income, or a weighted blended payout percentage of 196%. Based on these financial results, he was eligible to receive 2009 annual incentive compensation up to 196% of his 2009 target compensation, depending on individual performance. Mr. Bethards met or exceeded his individual goals, except with respect to two goals which in each case were only partially achieved, resulting in the achievement of 21.67% of the 30% target EICP attributable to individual performance. As a result, Mr. Bethards earned 180% of his 2009 target EICP compensation, or $663,012.

127

Michael S. Taff

• Financial Goals. The financial performance component of Mr. Taff’s 2009 annual incentive compensation was based entirely on McDermott’s consolidated operating income. The financial goals and payout percentage for 2009 are outlined in the table below.

Performance Measure ($ in millions)	Target EICP %		Threshold 25%		92.5%		Target 100%		107.5%		Maximum 200%		2009 Actual		Payout Percentage
Operating Income (McDermott(1))	70	%	$	241.9	$	328.2	$	345.5	$	362.8	$	414.6	$	546.5	200	%

(1) Consolidated operating income levels equal the sum of McDermott’s segment operating income less unallocated corporate operating expenses.

• Individual Goals. The individual goals and target weighting for Mr. Taff were as follows:

• achieve specific levels of consolidated health, safety and environmental performance averages relating to three metrics at McDermott (10%);

• develop and implement a plan to address the BWXT credit facility, which was scheduled to mature in 2010 (10%); and

• develop a strategic multi-year plan regarding information technology (10%).

• Evaluation of 2009 Performance and Payment of 2009 EICP Compensation. Mr. Taff earned a 200% payout on the financial component related to consolidated McDermott operating income and, depending on his individual performance, was eligible to receive 2009 annual incentive compensation up to 200% of his 2009 target compensation. Mr. Taff met or exceeded all of his individual goals. As a result, he earned 200% of his 2009 target EICP compensation, or $707,000.

Richard L. Killion

• Financial Goals. Mr. Killion is President and Chief Operating Officer of Babcock & Wilcox Power Generation Group, Inc. (“B&W PGG”), our principal subsidiary under which our Power Generation Systems segment is organized. As an executive officer of B&W, a portion of Mr. Killion’s annual incentive compensation was based on B&W’s consolidated financial results. However, as President of B&W PGG, he is directly responsible for the operations of B&W’s Power Generation Systems segment and, as a result, 40% of his 2009 target EICP was based on that segment’s operating income and 30% was based on B&W’s combined operating income. The financial goals and payout percentage for 2009 are outlined in the table below.

Performance Measures ($ in millions)	Target EICP %		Threshold 25%		92.5%		Target 100%		107.5%		Maximum 200%		2009 Result		Payout Percentage
Operating Income (B&W PGG)	40	%	$	113.9	$	143.0	$	150.5	$	158.0	$	176.4	$	183.3	200	%
Operating Income (B&W)	30	%	$	191.7	$	260.2	$	273.9	$	287.6	$	328.7	$	325.7	195	%

• complete two acquisitions for B&W PGG (10%).

128

• Evaluation of 2009 Performance and Payment of 2009 EICP Compensation. For purposes of evaluating B&W financial performance for 2009, B&W’s operating income results for 2009 excluded approximately $13 million of expense related to B&W’s mPower^TM initiative. Mr. Killion earned a 200% payout on the financial component related to B&W PGG operating income and a 195% payout on the financial component related to B&W’s combined operating income, or a weighted blended payout percentage of 198%. Based on these financial results, he was eligible to receive 2009 annual incentive compensation up to 198% of his 2009 target compensation, depending on individual performance. Mr. Killion met or exceeded his individual goals, except with respect to one goal which was only partially achieved, resulting in the achievement of 26.67% of the 30% target EICP attributable to individual performance. As a result, Mr. Killion earned 191.3% of his 2009 target EICP compensation, or $347,210.

Christofer M. Mowry

• Financial Goals. At the time financial and individual performance goals were set for 2009, Mr. Mowry served as Senior Vice President, Business Development for B&W. As a result, his financial performance component of 2009 EICP consisted entirely of B&W’s combined operating income. The financial goals and payout percentage for 2009 are outlined in the table below.

Performance Measures ($ in millions)	Target EICP %		Threshold 25%		92.5%		Target 100%		107.5%		Maximum 200%		2009 Result		Payout Percentage
Operating Income (B&W)	70	%	$	191.7	$	260.2	$	273.9	$	287.6	$	328.7	$	325.7	195	%

• Evaluation of 2009 Performance and Payment of 2009 EICP Compensation. For purposes of evaluating B&W financial performance for 2009, B&W’s operating income results for 2009 excluded approximately $13 million of expense related to B&W’s mPower^TM initiative. Mr. Mowry earned a 195% payout on the financial component related to B&W combined operating income and, depending on individual performance, was eligible to receive 2009 annual incentive compensation up to 195% of his 2009 target compensation. Mr. Mowry met or exceeded his individual goals, except with respect to one goal which was only partially achieved, resulting in the achievement of 26.67% of the 30% target EICP attributable to individual performance. As a result, Mr. Mowry earned 188.5% of his 2009 target EICP compensation, or $301,129.

129

Winfred D. Nash

• Financial Goals. Mr. Nash is President of Babcock & Wilcox Nuclear Operations Group, Inc. (“B&W NOG”), one of the principal subsidiaries under which our Government Operations segment is organized. As an executive officer of B&W, a portion of Mr. Nash’s annual incentive compensation was based on B&W’s combined financial results. However, as President of B&W NOG, he is directly responsible for B&W NOG’s operations and, as a result, 40% of his 2009 target EICP was based on B&W NOG’s operating income and 30% on B&W’s combined operating income. The financial goals and payout percentage for 2009 are outlined in the table below.

Performance Measures ($ in millions)	Target EICP %		Threshold 25%		92.5%		Target 100%		107.5%		Maximum 200%		2009 Result		Payout Percentage
Operating Income (B&W NOG)	40	%	$	94.4	$	118.6	$	124.8	$	131.0	$	143.6	$	145.5	200	%

• achieve successful integration of a specified acquisition as defined by the integration plan milestones (10%).

• Evaluation of 2009 Performance and Payment of 2009 EICP Compensation. For purposes of evaluating B&W financial performance for 2009, B&W’s operating income results for 2009 excluded approximately $13 million of expense related to B&W’s mPower^TM initiative. Mr. Nash earned a 200% payout on the financial component related to B&W NOG operating income and a 195% payout on the financial component related to B&W’s combined operating income, or a weighted blended payout percentage of 198%. Based on these financial results, he was eligible to receive 2009 annual incentive compensation up to 198% of his 2009 target compensation, depending on individual performance. Mr. Nash met or exceeded his individual goals, except with respect to two goals which were only partially achieved, resulting in the achievement of 15% of the 30% target EICP attributable to individual performance. As a result, Mr. Nash earned 168.2% of his 2009 target EICP compensation, or $292,668.

Long-Term Incentive Compensation

McDermott’s Compensation Committee believes that the interests of its shareholders are best served when a significant percentage of compensation is comprised of equity and other long-term incentives that appreciate in value contingent upon increases in the value of McDermott’s common stock and other performance measures that reflect improvements in McDermott’s business fundamentals. Therefore, long-term incentive compensation represents the single largest element of our Named Executives’ total direct compensation.

Analysis of 2009 Equity Grants

Mix of 2009 Equity. In 2006 and 2007, the long-term incentive compensation of our officers, including the Named Executives, consisted entirely of performance shares. These performance shares generally provided for vesting three years from the date of grant in an amount between 0% and 150% of the number of shares granted, depending on the level of cumulative consolidated operating income achieved during the vesting period. In 2008, McDermott’s Compensation Committee, with the advice of Hewitt, incorporated time-vested restricted stock into long-term incentive compensation, to promote retention. However, performance shares still constituted 75% of our Named Executives’ long-term incentive compensation for 2008. As a result, at the time the Compensation Committee considered 2009 long-term incentive compensation, performance shares dominated the outstanding long-term incentive compensation of Named Executives.

130

In addition, Hewitt’s 2009 market analysis of long-term incentive compensation indicated that many companies were reexamining their long-term incentive mix. Specifically, Hewitt noted that more companies were using stock options for rewarding performance based on absolute stock price improvement, restricted stock for retention and performance-based stock to encourage a focus on financial or operational drivers.

As a result, John A. Fees, Chief Executive Officer of McDermott, recommended changing the mix and allocation of equity award types used in connection with 2009 long-term incentive compensation. With the advice of Hewitt and to maintain the competitiveness of each Named Executive’s compensation, McDermott’s Compensation Committee approved the use of a mix of performance shares, restricted stock units and stock options in 2009 for officers, including our Named Executives. To drive performance, McDermott’s Compensation Committee determined to issue at least a majority of long-term incentive compensation in the form of performance-based compensation. For 2009, the performance-based long-term compensation consisted of performance shares and stock options. McDermott’s Compensation Committee allocated 2009 target long-term incentive compensation as follows:

• 20% performance shares;

• 40% stock options; and

• 40% restricted stock units.

Similar to prior years, the 2009 performance shares generally vest three years from the date of grant. However, McDermott’s Compensation Committee made two principal changes in the 2009 performance shares. First, to be consistent with annual incentive compensation, the 2009 performance shares vest in an amount between 0% and 200% of the target shares granted. Second, McDermott’s Compensation Committee added the concept of relative shareholder return as a performance condition, in addition to McDermott’s consolidated operating income. McDermott’s Compensation Committee continues to believe that operating income is an appropriate financial metric for use in both annual and long-term incentive compensation because of its potential to drive stock price and accountability at operating segments; however, in 2008 McDermott witnessed a disconnect in performance results. With approximately $570 million of operating income, McDermott produced its second highest level of operating income in at least a decade, although the price of its stock declined. To tie performance shares more directly with shareholder return, McDermott’s Compensation Committee designed the 2009 performance shares to vest (1) one-half based on the level of McDermott’s cumulative operating income attained over the three-year period ending December 31, 2011 and (2) one-half based on the total shareholder return of our stock relative to the Custom Peer Group over the same period.

On the recommendation of McDermott’s management and with the advice of Hewitt, the McDermott Compensation Committee set cumulative operating income for the target and maximum vesting levels at amounts that represent 6% and 10% annual growth from the target operating income goal for McDermott used in connection with 2009 annual incentive compensation. Consistent with annual incentive compensation, no performance shares will vest based on operating income if the performance results are below 70% of the target three-year cumulative operating income goal. In addition, the performance shares that vest based on shareholder return will vest as follows:

• 25% will vest if McDermott’s total shareholder return is at the 25^th percentile (threshold level) relative to the total shareholder return of the Custom Peer Group;

• 100% will vest if McDermott’s total shareholder return is at the 50^th percentile (target level) relative to the total shareholder return of the Custom Peer Group; and

• 200% will vest if McDermott’s total shareholder return is at the 100^th percentile (maximum level) relative to the total shareholder return of the Custom Peer Group.

The percentage that would vest between threshold, target and maximum levels is interpolated based on those performance levels. However, regardless of percentile, 200% would vest if McDermott’s total shareholder return

131

for the three-year period ranks either first or second relative to the total shareholder return of the Custom Peer Group over the same period. No performance shares would vest based on shareholder return if McDermott’s total shareholder return relative to the Custom Peer Group falls below the 25% threshold performance level.

For more information regarding the 2009 performance shares, restricted stock units and stock options, see the Grants of Plan-Based Awards table under “Compensation of Executive Officers” below and disclosures under “Compensation of Executive Officers—Estimated Future Payouts Under Equity Incentive Plan Awards.” For information regarding how McDermott’s outstanding equity-base compensation awards will be treated in connection with the spin-off, see “The Spin-Off—Treatment of Stock-Based Awards” above.

Value of 2009 Long-Term Incentive Compensation. The 2009 target long-term incentive compensation for our Named Executives was as follows:

Named Executive	Target LTI (% of annual base salary)		Percent of Market(1)
B.C. Bethards	286	%	100	%
M.S. Taff	348	%	125	%
R.L. Killion	168	%	106	%
C.M. Mowry	100	%	108	%
W.D. Nash	144	%	116	%

(1) Market = Median target long-term incentives based on the benchmark applicable to the executive.

As a result of market conditions in 2008, the value of Named Executives’ outstanding long-term incentive compensation dropped considerably. In February 2009, the expected value of the long-term incentive compensation granted between 2006 and 2008 was approximately 35% of the target grant date value. For certain officers, including one Named Executive (Mr. Taff), the expected value of their outstanding long-term incentive compensation was even lower due to the particular mix of their respective equity following recent promotions within McDermott. McDermott’s Compensation Committee was concerned that long-term incentive compensation would not effectively promote its intended purpose at values substantially below target. McDermott’s Compensation Committee therefore increased the target 2009 long-term incentive compensation of Mr. Taff by 9% over the amount initially recommended to be granted in 2009. As a result, Mr. Taff’s target 2009 long-term incentive compensation exceeded the market range; however, his total direct compensation was within the market range.

Sizing Long-Term Incentive Compensation. McDermott’s Compensation Committee generally determines the size of equity-based grants as a percentage of a Named Executive’s annual base salary, rather than granting a targeted number of shares. The number of performance shares, restricted stock units and stock options granted can be expressed through the following formula:

value of target long-term incentive($)/FMV($).

The dollar value of the target equity award for each Named Executive was derived by multiplying the Named Executive’s target percentage by his 2009 base salary. The fair market value of one performance share, restricted stock unit and stock option was determined by Hewitt near the time of grant and generally reflected a discount from the market price of McDermott’s common stock as a result of the vesting conditions and restrictions on transfer. Hewitt used a Black Scholes model to value stock options. For the long-term incentive compensation granted in February 2009, the fair market value of McDermott’s common stock as of the date the grants were calculated (based on the closing price of McDermott’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange) was $13.21, compared to the discounted value of $10.52 for one performance share, $12.177 for one restricted stock unit and $8.581 for an option to acquire one share of McDermott common stock. Because the long-term incentive compensation grants vest over three years, the number of shares calculated were rounded down to the nearest multiple of three. To illustrate, consider the 28,611 performance shares granted to our Chief

132

Executive Officer in 2009. The dollar value of Mr. Bethards’ target 2009 long-term incentive compensation was $1,504,932 ($526,200 base salary multiplied by 286% target long-term incentive). Performance shares accounted for 20% of his target long-term incentive compensation granted in 2009, or $300,986. At a fair market value of $10.52/share, 20% of Mr. Bethards’ target long-term compensation grant amounted to 28,611 performance shares.

Timing of Equity Grants

To avoid timing equity grants ahead of the release of material nonpublic information, McDermott’s Compensation Committee generally approves stock option and other equity awards effective as of the first day of the next open trading window following the meeting at which the grants are approved, which is generally the third day following the filing of McDermott’s annual report on Form 10-K or quarterly report on Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission. This practice was followed for all long-term incentive compensation grants to Named Executives in 2009.

Perquisites

Perquisites are not factored into the determination of the total direct compensation of our Named Executives, because they are typically provided to Named Executives on an exception basis.

McDermott owns a fractional interest in two aircraft through an aircraft management company, which McDermott uses for business purposes and makes available to our Named Executives for limited personal use. When McDermott permits the personal use of aircraft by a Named Executive, McDermott has a choice regarding the amount of income tax imputed to the Named Executive for that use. Under current Internal Revenue Service rules, McDermott may impute to the Named Executive the actual cost incurred by McDermott for the flight or an amount based on Standard Industry Fare Level (“SIFL”) rates set by the U.S. Department of Transportation. Imputing income based on SIFL rates usually results in less income tax liability to the Named Executive but higher income taxes to McDermott due to limitations on deducting aircraft expenses that exceed the income imputed to employees. To minimize McDermott’s cost of permitting the personal use of the aircraft, McDermott imputes income for personal use of aircraft to our Named Executives in an amount that results in the least amount of tax burden for McDermott.

As required by applicable Securities and Exchange Commission rules, McDermott calculates compensation in respect of personal use of corporate aircraft based on its “incremental cost.” McDermott computes incremental cost for personal use of aircraft based on the actual cost incurred by McDermott for the flight, including:

• the cost of fuel;

• a usage charge equal to the hourly rate charged by McDermott’s flight operator multiplied by the flight time;

• “dead head” costs, if applicable, of flying aircraft without passengers to and from locations; and

• the dollar amount of increased income taxes McDermott incurs as a result of disallowed deductions under IRS rules.

Since the aircraft are used primarily for business travel, incremental costs generally exclude fixed costs such as the purchase price of our interests in the aircraft, aircraft management fees, depreciation, maintenance and insurance. McDermott’s cost for flights, whether business or personal, is not affected by the number of passengers. As a result, McDermott does not assign any amount, other than the amount of any disallowed deduction, when computing incremental costs for the presence of guests accompanying a Named Executive on such flights. While McDermott does not generally incur any additional cost, this travel may result in imputed income to the Named Executive and disallowed deductions on McDermott’s income taxes. McDermott will reimburse the Named Executive for the travel expenses of a guest accompanying a Named Executive, including

133

the provision of a gross-up for any imputed income, when the presence of that guest is related to the underlying business purpose of the trip. McDermott also provides our Named Executives with a tax gross-up for income incurred in connection with a relocation with McDermott or one of its affiliated companies.

Post-Employment Compensation

Retirement Plans

Overview. McDermott provides retirement benefits through a combination of qualified defined benefit pension plans, which we refer to as the “Retirement Plans,” and a qualified defined contribution 401(k) Plan, which we refer to as the “Thrift Plan,” for most of our U.S. employees, including our Named Executives. McDermott maintains four Retirement Plans, including the following three which are relevant to our Named Executives:

• the Commercial Operations Retirement Plan for the benefit of the U.S. employees of McDermott’s Power Generation Systems segment;

• the Government Operations Retirement Plan for the benefit of the employees of McDermott’s Government Operations segment; and

• the McDermott Retirement Plan for the benefit of the employees of MI.

We sponsor the Commercial Operations Retirement Plan through B&W PGG. McDermott sponsors the Government Operations and McDermott Retirement Plans through MI. In connection with the spin-off, we will assume the Government Operations Retirement Plan and certain assets and liabilities of the McDermott Retirement Plan.

In addition to the broad-based qualified plans described above, McDermott maintains unfunded, nonqualified excess retirement plans, which we refer to as the “Excess Plans.” The Excess Plans cover a small group of highly compensated employees, including some of our Named Executives (Messrs. Bethards, Killion and Nash), whose ultimate benefits under the applicable Retirement Plan are reduced by Internal Revenue Code limits on the amount of benefits which may be provided under qualified plans, and on the amount of compensation which may be taken into account in computing benefits under qualified plans. Benefits under the excess plans are paid from McDermott’s general assets. We sponsor the Commercial Operations Excess Plan through B&W PGG and the Government Operations Excess Plan through our subsidiary, Babcock & Wilcox Investment Company. McDermott sponsors the McDermott Excess Plan through MI. In connection with the spin-off, we will assume certain liabilities of the McDermott Excess Plan. See the “Pension Benefits” table under “Compensation of Executive Officers” below for more information regarding the Retirement Plans.

Recent Changes to Retirement Plans. Over the past several years, McDermott has reassessed its retirement plans due to the volatility, cost and complexity associated with defined benefit plans and evolving employee preferences. As a result, McDermott has taken steps to shift away from traditional defined benefit plans and toward a defined contribution approach. In 2006, McDermott closed the McDermott Commercial Operations and Government Operations Retirement Plans to new salaried participants and froze benefit accruals for existing salaried participants with less than five years of credited service as of March 31, 2006, subject to specific annual cost-of-living increases. In lieu of future defined benefit plan accruals under those plans, McDermott further amended the Thrift Plan to provide an automatic cash contribution to the Thrift Plan accounts of affected employees and new hires in an amount between 3% and 8% of the employee’s base pay, plus overtime pay, expatriate pay and commissions, based on their length of service. Messrs. Mowry and Taff were affected by these changes. Neither Mr. Mowry nor Mr. Taff participate in a Retirement Plan or an Excess Plan because neither executive met the eligibility requirements at the time that the plan applicable to the executive was closed to new participants. In 2007, McDermott offered salaried participants in the McDermott Commercial Operations and Government Operations Retirement Plans with between five and 10 years of credited service as of January 1, 2007 the one-time irrevocable choice between (1) continuing to accrue future benefits under the Retirement Plan

134

or (2) freezing their Retirement Plan accrued benefit as of March 31, 2007, subject to annual cost-of-living increases, and receiving an automatic service-based cash contribution to their Thrift Plan account instead. No Named Executives were affected by the changes in 2007.

Supplemental Plans. In 2005, as part of McDermott’s determination to move away from defined benefit plans, McDermott’s management recommended that McDermott’s Board of Directors and McDermott’s Compensation Committee terminate its then-existing nonqualified, defined benefit supplemental executive retirement plan. In its place, McDermott’s Board of Directors and Compensation Committee established a new supplemental executive retirement plan, which we refer to as the “SERP,” to help maintain the competitiveness of its post-employment compensation as compared to the market. The SERP is an unfunded, nonqualified defined contribution plan that provides participants with benefits based on the participant’s notional account balance at the time of retirement or termination. Employees must generally be an officer of McDermott or one of its subsidiaries for two to three years before being eligible to participate in the SERP. As a result, Messrs. Bethards, Taff and Nash are participants in the SERP, but Messrs. Killion and Mowry are not.

Annually, McDermott credits a participant’s notional account with an amount equal to 5% of the participant’s prior-year base salary and annual bonus paid in the prior year. McDermott’s Compensation Committee has designated deemed mutual fund investments to serve as indices for the purpose of determining notional investment gains and losses to each participant’s account. Each participant allocates the annual notional contribution among the various deemed investments. SERP benefits are based on the participant’s vested notional account balance at the time of retirement or termination. In order to take advantage of grandfathering provisions in Internal Revenue Code Section 457A, in 2009, the Compensation Committee amended the SERP to vest each participant’s account as of December 31, 2008. Of the Named Executives with a SERP account balance as of the end of 2008, only Mr. Taff’s account was not fully vested. At the time of the amendment, Mr. Taff was 80% vested in his SERP balance. See the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table under “Compensation of Executive Officers” below for more information regarding the SERP and McDermott’s contributions to our Named Executives’ SERP accounts. In connection with the spin-off, we expect our Board or Directors will adopt a nonqualified supplemental executive retirement plan substantially similar to McDermott’s SERP.

Employment and Severance Arrangements

Employment and Separation Agreements. Except for change-in-control agreements and retention agreements, we do not currently have any employment or severance agreements with any of our Named Executives.

Change-in-Control Agreements. McDermott believed that providing change-in-control agreements to key executives protects shareholders’ interests by helping to assure management continuity and focus through and beyond a change in control. Accordingly, McDermott’s Compensation Committee has offered change-in-control agreements to its senior management since 2005. Two of our Named Executives, Messrs. Bethards and Taff, have change-in-control agreements with McDermott. These agreements generally provide a cash severance payment of two times the sum of the Named Executive’s annual base salary and target EICP, a cash payment equal to two years of medical benefits and an additional tax gross-up in the event of any excise tax liability. Additionally, McDermott’s change-in-control agreements contain what is commonly referred to as a “double trigger,” that is, they provide benefits only upon an involuntary termination or constructive termination of the executive officer within one year following a change in control. See the “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control” tables under “Compensation of Executive Officers” below and the accompanying disclosures for more information regarding the change-in-control agreements with our Named Executives, as well as other plans and arrangements that have different trigger mechanisms that relate to a change in control.

In connection with the spin-off, the change-in-control agreements between McDermott and Messrs. Bethards and Taff will terminate immediately following the distribution date.

135

Retention Agreements. In connection with McDermott’s announcement to spin off B&W as an independent, publicly traded company, McDermott entered into retention agreements with 17 key members of its management, including Messrs. Bethards and Taff, to retain key employees and executives through the completion of the separation of B&W from McDermott.

Generally, the retention agreements provide either a retention or severance payment to the Named Executives in connection with the spin-off. The retention agreements generally provide a retention payment in the form of a restricted stock grant made near the time of the spin-off, that would vest one year following the separation, equal to 100% of the sum of the Named Executive’s annual base salary plus target annual incentive compensation. That amount represented one-half of the severance payment that otherwise would be provided under each Named Executive’s retention agreement in the event of a qualifying termination. With respect to Mr. Taff, one-third of his retention payment will be payable in cash on the effective date of the separation, in recognition of his agreement to serve as the Chief Financial Officer of B&W following the spin-off.

Although the spin-off would not constitute a change in control for purposes of the Change-in-Control Agreements discussed above or other McDermott compensation plans, McDermott’s Compensation Committee determined that the need to maintain continuity of management and personnel that exists under a change in control scenario equally exists in connection with the planned spin-off of B&W. As a result, the retention agreements provide for severance payments that would generally be the same as the severance payments that would be made in connection with a qualifying termination on or following a change in control (other than tax gross-ups). Accordingly, the retention agreements provide for a cash severance payment of two times the sum of the Named Executive’s annual base salary and target EICP, prorated target annual incentive compensation and a cash payment equal to two years of medical benefits as well as the full vesting of outstanding long-term incentive grants and SERP balance. The only payment provided for under the retention agreement not otherwise payable in a change in control is the potential early vesting of the Named Executive’s Thrift Plan account. Under the terms of the Thrift Plan, unvested balances would become vested in the event a participant is involuntarily terminated in connection with a reduction in force. Because involuntary terminations for reasons other than cause in connection with the proposed separation generally would be considered to be associated with a reduction in force, McDermott’s Compensation Committee determined to add the vesting of Thrift Plan accounts to the severance benefits to avoid any ambiguity on that point. The Thrift Plan normally vests after three years of service. All of our Named Executives who are party to a retention agreement are fully vested in their Thrift Plan accounts.

We will assume McDermott’s obligations under the retention agreements with our Named Executives as of the distribution date, and those retention agreements will terminate one year following the spin-off, among other reasons.

See the “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control” tables under “Compensation of Executive Officers—Retention Agreements” below and the accompanying disclosures for more information regarding the retention agreements with our Named Executives.

Compensation of Executive Officers

The following table summarizes the prior three years’ compensation of our Chief Executive Officer, our Chief Financial Officer and our three highest paid executive officers who did not serve as our CEO and CFO during 2009. We refer to these persons as our Named Executives. All of the information included in these tables reflects compensation earned by the individuals for service with McDermott. All references in the following tables to stock relate to awards of stock granted by McDermott. Such amounts do not necessarily reflect the compensation such persons will receive following the spin-off, which could be higher or lower, because historical compensation was determined by McDermott and future compensation levels will be determined based on the compensation policies, programs and procedures to be established by our compensation committee.

(7) No compensation information is provided for Mr. Mowry for 2007 because he joined our company in August 2008. The information for 2008 reflects his compensation from August 2008 through December 2008.

Bonus. The amounts reported in the “Bonus” column are attributable to discretionary bonus awards.

Stock Awards. The amounts reported in the “Stock Awards” column represent the aggregate grant date fair value of stock awards granted in the applicable year and computed in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) Topic 718. Under FASB ASC Topic 718, the fair value of the stock awards is determined on the date of grant and is not remeasured. Grant date fair values were determined using the closing price of McDermott’s common stock on the date of grant for restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance shares. The grant date fair value of performance shares included in the stock awards is based on target-

137

level performance, which McDermott determined was the probable outcome of performance conditions at the time of grant. Assuming the maximum performance levels were probable, the aggregate grant date fair values of the stock awards would be as follows:

Grant Date Fair Value Assuming Maximum Performance

Name	Year	Grant Date Fair Value Assuming Maximum Performance Level
B.C. Bethards	2009	$	1,148,685
	2008	$	1,580,801
	2007	$	1,498,722

	2007	$	698,729

See the “Grants of Plan-Based Awards” table for more information regarding the stock awards McDermott granted in 2009.

Option Awards. The amounts reported in the “Option Awards” column represent the aggregate grant date fair value of all option awards granted in the applicable year computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. Under FASB ASC Topic 718, the fair value of stock options is determined on the date of grant using an option-pricing model and is not remeasured. McDermott used a Black-Scholes option-pricing model for measuring the fair value of stock options. The determination of the fair value of an award on the date of grant using an option-pricing model requires various assumptions, such as the expected life of the award and stock price volatility. For a discussion of the valuation assumptions, please see the information set forth under the heading “Stock Options” in Note 8, “Stock Plans,” to our combined financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 included in this information statement.

See the “Grants of Plan-Based Awards” table for more information regarding the option awards McDermott granted in 2009.

Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation. The amounts reported in the “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation” column are attributable to the McDermott annual incentive awards earned in fiscal years 2007, 2008 and 2009, but paid in 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively. See the “Grants of Plan-Based Awards” table for more information regarding the annual incentive awards earned in 2009.

Change in Pension Value and Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Earnings. The amounts reported in the “Change in Pension Value and Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Earnings” column represent the changes in actuarial present values of the accumulated benefits under McDermott’s defined benefit plans, determined by comparing the prior completed fiscal year-end amount to the covered fiscal year-end amount.

138

All Other Compensation. The amounts reported for 2009 in the “All Other Compensation” column are attributable to the following:

Estimated Possible Payouts Under Non-Equity Incentive Plan Awards

McDermott’s compensation committee administers the Executive Incentive Compensation Plan, an annual cash incentive program, which we refer to as the EICP. The payment amount, if any, of an EICP award is determined based on: (1) the attainment of short-term financial goals; (2) the attainment of short-term individual goals; and (3) the exercise of the McDermott compensation committee’s discretionary authority. Each year, McDermott’s compensation committee establishes financial goals. McDermott’s Chief Executive Officer established the individual goals for our Named Executives.

The financial goals contain threshold, target and maximum performance levels which, if achieved, result in payments of 25%, 100% and 200% of the financial component, respectively. If the threshold financial goal is not achieved, no amount is paid on an EICP award under the financial component. For purposes of evaluating McDermott’s performance under the financial performance component, McDermott’s compensation committee may adjust McDermott’s results prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for unusual, nonrecurring or other items in the McDermott compensation committee’s discretion. Payment is made on an EICP award under the individual component based on the attainment of the Named Executive’s individual goals as determined and evaluated by McDermott’s Chief Executive Officer. In addition, the McDermott compensation committee may decrease an EICP award in its discretion. The maximum EICP award a Named Executive can earn is 200% of his target EICP award.

The amounts shown reflect grants of 2009 EICP awards made by McDermott. The McDermott compensation committee established target EICP awards expressed as a percentage of the Named Executive’s 2009 base salary. The amount shown in

140

the “target” column represents the value of the target EICP award determined by multiplying the target percentage established for each Named Executive by the Named Executive’s 2009 base salary. For 2009, the target percentage of base salary for each Named Executive was as follows: 70% for Mr. Bethards, 70% for Mr. Taff, 55% for Mr. Killion, 45% for Mr. Mowry and 50% for Mr. Nash. The amount shown in the “maximum” column represents the maximum amount payable under the EICP, which is 200% of the target amount shown. The amount shown in the “threshold” column represents the amount payable under the EICP assuming the threshold level of the financial goals, but no individual goal, is attained and the McDermott compensation committee did not exercise any discretion over the EICP award. The financial goal represents 70% of the target EICP award. Attaining only the threshold level, or 25%, of the financial goal results in an EICP payment of 17.50% of the target EICP award. See “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Annual Incentive Compensation” above for more information about the 2009 EICP awards and performance goals.

In connection with the spin-off, we expect our Board of Directors will adopt an annual incentive compensation plan substantially similar to McDermott’s EICP. Assuming that is the case, for the 2010 EICP compensation of each current officer of B&W who will be an officer of B&W immediately following the spin-off, including Messrs. Bethards, Killion, Mowry and Nash, the officer’s 2010 EICP compensation would be attributable to individual and financial performance. The financial performance would be based on pre-established levels of operating income related to B&W operations relevant to the officer. For the 2010 EICP compensation of each of the McDermott officers who are not current officers of B&W but who will be officers of B&W immediately following the spin-off, including Mr. Taff, the officer’s 2010 EICP compensation would be divided based on the officer’s service with McDermott prior to the effective date of the spin-off and the officer’s service with B&W following the effective date of the spin-off. In respect of an officer’s service with McDermott during 2010, the officer would earn the target amount of his or her 2010 EICP compensation for the annual base salary earned through the distribution date. In respect of the officer’s service with B&W during 2010, the officer would earn additional 2010 EICP compensation based on his or her annual base salary earned following the distribution date through the end of 2010 attributable to individual and financial performance. Similar to current B&W officers, the financial performance with respect to these officers would also be based on pre-established levels of operating income related to B&W operations relevant to the officer.

Estimated Future Payouts Under Equity Incentive Plan Awards

The amounts shown reflect grants of performance shares under McDermott’s 2001 D&O Plan made by McDermott. Each grant represents a right to receive one share of McDermott common stock for each vested performance share. The amount of performance shares that vest, if any, is scheduled to be determined on the third anniversary of the date of grant based (1) one-half on McDermott’s cumulative operating income between January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2011, and (2) one-half on McDermott’s total shareholder return relative to its custom peer group during the same period. For purposes of evaluating McDermott’s cumulative operating income, McDermott’s compensation committee may adjust McDermott’s results prepared in accordance with GAAP for unusual, non-recurring or other items in the McDermott compensation committee’s discretion. The amounts shown in the “target” column represent the number of performance shares granted, which will vest if both the target level of cumulative operating income is attained and McDermott’s total shareholder return ranks in the 50^th percentile relative to McDermott’s custom peer group. The amounts shown in the “maximum” column represent the number of performance shares that will vest, which is 200% of the amount granted, if both the maximum level of cumulative operating income is attained and McDermott’s total shareholder return ranks first or second in total shareholder return relative to McDermott’s custom peer group. The amounts shown in the “threshold” column represent the number of performance shares that will vest, which is 25% of the amount granted, if both the minimum level of cumulative operating income is attained and McDermott’s total shareholder return ranks in the 25^th percentile relative to McDermott’s custom peer group. No amount of performance shares will vest if the cumulative operating income achieved is less than the minimum performance level and McDermott’s total shareholder return ranks in less than the 25^th percentile relative to McDermott’s custom peer group. See “The Spin-Off—Treatment of Stock-Based Awards” for a description of how the McDermott performance shares will be treated in connection with the spin-off.

141

All Other Stock Awards

The amounts shown reflect grants of restricted stock units made by McDermott under McDermott’s 2001 D&O Plan. Each restricted stock unit represents the right to receive one share of McDermott common stock and generally is scheduled to vest in one-third increments on the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of grant. Upon vesting, the restricted stock units are converted into shares of McDermott common stock. See “The Spin-Off—Treatment of Stock-Based Awards” for a description of how the McDermott restricted stock units will be treated in connection with the spin-off.

All Other Option Awards

The amounts shown reflect grants of stock options made by McDermott under McDermott’s 2001 D&O Plan. Each grant represents the right to purchase at the exercise price shares of McDermott common stock over a period of seven years. The stock options are generally scheduled to vest and become exercisable in one-third increments on the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of grant. See “The Spin-Off—Treatment of Stock-Based Awards” for a description of how the options to purchase McDermott stock will be treated in connection with the spin-off.

Grant Date Fair Value of Stock and Option Awards

The amounts included in the “Grant Date Fair Value of Stock and Option Awards” column represent the full grant date fair values of the equity awards computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. Under FASB ASC Topic 718, the fair value of equity awards is determined on the date of grant and is not remeasured. Grant date fair values are determined using the closing price of McDermott’s common stock on the date of grant for restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance shares, and an option-pricing model for stock options. McDermott used a Black-Scholes option-pricing model for measuring the fair value of stock options granted. The determination of the fair value of an award on the date of grant using an option-pricing model requires various assumptions, such as the expected life of the award and stock price volatility. For more information regarding the compensation expense related to the awards, and a discussion of valuation assumptions utilized in option pricing, see the information set forth under the heading “Stock Options” in Note 8, “Stock Plans,” to our combined financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 included in this information statement.

Information presented in the Stock Awards columns relates to awards of restricted stock, restricted stock units, deferred stock units and performance shares made by McDermott and held by our Named Executives as of December 31, 2009. The awards reported in the “Equity Incentive Plan Awards” columns consist entirely of stock awards subject to performance-based conditions as of December 31, 2009. The awards reported in the “Number of Shares or Units of Stock that have not Vested” column reflect stock awards subject to service-based vesting, including performance shares whose performance conditions have been satisfied as of December 31, 2009.

Restricted Stock Awards. Shares of restricted stock are generally scheduled to vest in one-third increments on the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date. The vesting schedule of the restricted stock outstanding as of December 31, 2009 is as follows:

Grant Date	One-third of grant vests on:
03/03/08	March 3, 2010 and 2011
08/14/08	August 14, 2010 and 2011
11/10/08	November 10, 2010 and 2011

See “The Spin-Off—Treatment of Stock-Based Awards” for a description of how shares of McDermott restricted stock will be treated in connection with the spin-off.

Restricted Stock Units. Restricted stock units represent the right to receive one share of McDermott common stock for each vested restricted stock unit. Restricted stock units outstanding as of December 31, 2009 are generally scheduled to vest in one-third increments on the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date, as follows:

Grant Date	One-third of grant vests on:

See “The Spin-Off—Treatment of Stock-Based Awards” for a description of how the McDermott restricted stock units will be treated in connection with the spin-off.

Deferred Stock Units. Deferred stock units are settled in cash in an amount equal to the number of vested units multiplied by the average of the highest and lowest price of McDermott’s common stock on the date of vesting. Deferred stock units are generally scheduled to vest in five equal installments on each anniversary of the date of grant. The vesting schedule of the deferred stock units outstanding as of December 31, 2009 is as follows:

Grant Date	One-fifth of grant vests on:
05/12/05	May 12, 2010

144

See “The Spin-Off—Treatment of Stock-Based Awards” for a description of how McDermott deferred stock units will be treated in connection with the spin-off.

Performance Shares. Performance shares represent the right to receive one share of McDermott common stock for each performance share that vests. The number of performance shares that vest depends on the attainment of specified performance goals. The number and value of performance shares reported is based on achieving threshold performance levels, unless the previous year’s performance level exceeds threshold, in which case the number and value of performance shares reported is based on attaining the next higher performance level. The number and value of the 2007 performance shares reported are based on attaining the maximum performance level, or 150% of the performance shares granted. The number and value of the 2008 performance shares reported are based on attaining the threshold performance level, or 25% of the performance shares granted. The number and value of the 2009 performance shares reported are based on attaining the maximum performance level, or 200% of the performance shares granted. See the “Grants of Plan-Based Awards” table for more information about performance shares. Performance shares are generally scheduled to vest on the third anniversary of the date of grant, as follows:

Grant Date	Vests per attainment of performance levels on:
05/10/07	May 10, 2010
03/03/08	March 3, 2011
03/05/09	March 5, 2012

Option Exercises and Stock Vested

The following Option Exercises and Stock Vested table provides additional information about the value realized by our Named Executives on exercises of McDermott option awards and vesting of McDermott stock awards during the year ended December 31, 2009.

	Option Awards			Stock Awards
Name	Shares Acquired on Exercise (#)	Value Realized on Exercise		Shares Acquired on Vesting (#)	Value Realized on Vesting
B.C. Bethards	0		N/A	32,477	$	631,050.07
M.S. Taff	0		N/A	31,547	$	567,563.97

W.D. Nash	0		N/A	41,061	$	825,452.24

Option Awards. Each stock option exercise reported in the Option Exercises and Stock Vested table was effected as a simultaneous exercise and sale. The value realized on exercise was calculated based on the difference between the exercise prices of the stock options and the prices at which the shares were sold.

Stock Awards. For each Named Executive, the number of shares acquired on vesting reported in the Option Exercises and Stock Vested table represents the aggregate number of shares that vested during 2009 in connection with awards of McDermott performance shares, restricted stock, restricted stock units and/or deferred stock units. The awards of deferred stock units reflected in this table are payable entirely in cash. As a result, no shares of McDermott stock were actually acquired upon the vesting of these deferred stock units. See the “Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End” table for more information on the settlement of deferred stock unit awards. The following table sets forth the amount of McDermott shares attributable to McDermott performance shares, restricted stock, restricted stock units and deferred stock units, for each Named Executive:

	Performance Shares			Restricted Stock			Deferred Stock Units
Name	Number  of Shares Acquired on Vesting	Value Realized on Vesting		Number  of Shares Acquired on Vesting	Value Realized on Vesting		Number  of Shares Acquired on Vesting	Value Realized on Vesting

	B&W Governmental Operations Excess Plan	40.333	$	941,030	$	0

Overview of Qualified Plans. McDermott maintains retirement plans that are funded by trusts and cover certain eligible regular full-time employees of McDermott and its subsidiaries, described below in the section entitled “Participation and Eligibility,” except certain nonresident alien employees who are not citizens of a European Community country or who do not earn income in the United States, Canada or the United Kingdom.

• Mr. Bethards and Mr. Nash participate in the Retirement Plan for Employees of Babcock & Wilcox Government Operations (the “B&W Government Operations Qualified Retirement Plan”) for the benefit of the eligible employees of The Babcock & Wilcox Company and our Governmental Operations segment;

• Mr. Killion participates in the Retirement Plan for Employees of Babcock & Wilcox Commercial Operations (the “B&W Commercial Operations Qualified Retirement Plan”) for the benefit of eligible employees of Babcock & Wilcox Power Generation Group, Babcock & Wilcox Nuclear Generation Group and our Power Generation Systems segment; and

• Due to their respective employment dates, Messrs. Taff and Mowry do not participate in our defined benefit plans. For more information on our retirement plans, see “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Post-Employment Compensation—Retirement Plans.”

We sponsor the Commercial Operations Retirement Plan through B&W PGG. McDermott sponsors the Government Operations and McDermott Retirement Plans through MI. In connection with the spin-off, we will assume the Government Operations Retirement Plan and certain assets and liabilities of the McDermott Retirement Plan.

Participation and Eligibility. Generally, employees over the age of 21 years, who were hired before April 1, 2005, are eligible to participate in the B&W Governmental Operations Qualified Retirement Plan or the B&W Commercial Operations Qualified Retirement Plan.

• For participants with less than five years of service as of March 31, 2006—Benefit accruals were frozen as of that date. Affected employees now receive annual service-based company cash contributions to their Thrift Plan account.

• For participants with more than five but less than ten years of service as of January 1, 2007—If a participant made an election to do so, benefit accruals were frozen as of March 31, 2007, with the electing participants now receiving annual service-based company cash contributions to their Thrift Plan accounts.

147

• Frozen accrued benefits of affected employees under these plans will increase annually in line with increases in the Consumer Price Index, up to a maximum of 8% and a minimum of 1%, for each year the employee remains employed. For further discussion on the service-based company cash contributions under the Thrift Plan, see “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Post-Employment Compensation—Retirement Plans.”

Benefits. Benefits under these plans are calculated under one of two formulas:

(1) For participating employees originally hired by McDermott’s Power Generation Systems or Government Operations segment (“Tenured Employees”) before April 1, 1998—benefits are based on years of credited service and final average cash compensation (including bonuses and commissions); and

(2) For participating employees hired before April 1, 1998 who are not Tenured Employees, and for participating employees hired on or after April 1, 1998—benefits are based on years of credited service, final average cash compensation (excluding bonuses and commissions) and anticipated social security benefits. Final average cash compensation is based on each employee’s average annual earnings during the 60 successive months out of the 120 successive months before retirement in which such earnings were highest.

The present value of accumulated benefits reflected in the “Pension Benefits” table above is based on a 6.00% discount rate and the 1994 Group Annuity Mortality Table projected to 2005.

Retirement and Early Retirement. Under each of these plans, normal retirement is age 65. The normal form of payment is a single-life annuity or a 50% joint and survivor annuity, depending on the employee’s marital status when payments are scheduled to begin. Early retirement eligibility and benefits under these plans depend on the employee’s date of hire. Messrs. Bethards, Killion and Nash are each currently eligible for early retirement.

For Tenured Employees hired before April 1, 1998 (which includes Messrs. Bethards, Killion and Nash):

• an employee is eligible for early retirement if the employee has completed at least 15 years of credited service and attained the age of 50; and

• early retirement benefits are based on the same formula as normal retirement, but the pension benefit is unreduced if the sum of the employee’s age and years of service equals 75 or greater at the date benefits commence; otherwise the pension benefit is reduced 4% for each “point” less than 75.

For employees hired on or after April 1, 1998:

• an employee is eligible for early retirement after completing at least 15 years of credited service and attaining the age of 55; and

• early retirement benefits are based on the same formula as normal retirement, but the pension benefit is generally reduced 0.4% for each month that benefits commence before age 62.

Overview of Nonqualified Plans. To the extent benefits payable under these qualified plans are limited by Section 415(b) or 401(a)(17) of the Internal Revenue Code, pension benefits will be paid directly by McDermott’s applicable subsidiaries under the terms of unfunded excess benefit plans (the “Excess Plans”) maintained by them. Effective January 1, 2006, the Excess Plans were amended to limit the annual bonus payments taken into account in calculating the Tenured Employees’ Excess Plan benefits to the lesser of the actual bonus paid or 25% of the prior year’s base salary.

• Messrs. Bethards and Nash participate in the Restoration of Retirement Income Plan for Certain Participants in the Retirement Plan for Employees of Babcock & Wilcox Governmental Operations; and

148

• Mr. Killion participates in the Restoration of Retirement Income Plan for Certain Participants in the Retirement Plan for Employees of Babcock & Wilcox Commercial Operations.

We sponsor the Commercial Operations Excess Plan through B&W PGG and the Government Operations Excess Plan through our subsidiary, Babcock & Wilcox Investment Company. McDermott sponsors the McDermott Excess Plan through MI. In connection with the spin-off, we will assume certain liabilities of the McDermott Excess Plan.

149

Nonqualified Deferred Compensation

The following Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table summarizes our Named Executives’ compensation under McDermott’s nonqualified supplemental retirement plan. The compensation shown in this table is entirely attributable to the McDermott International, Inc. New Supplemental Employee Retirement Plan, or SERP, established January 1, 2005.

Name	Executive Contributions in 2009		Registrant Contributions in 2009		Aggregate Earnings in 2009		Aggregate Withdrawals/ Distributions		Aggregate Balance at 12/31/09
B.C. Bethards	$	0	$	44,948.00	$	51,718.71	$	0	$	446,531.52
M.S. Taff	$	0	$	41,378.00	$	34,000.95	$	0	$	139,978.13
R.L. Killion(1)		N/A		N/A		N/A		N/A		N/A
C.M.  Mowry(1)		N/A		N/A		N/A		N/A		N/A
W.D. Nash	$	0	$	30,361.00	$	89,855.65	$	0	$	291,636.80

(1) No information is provided for Messrs. Killion or Mowry because neither is a participant in the SERP.

McDermott’s SERP is an unfunded, defined contribution retirement plan for officers of McDermott and its operating segments selected to participate by McDermott’s compensation committee. Benefits under the SERP are based on the participating officer’s vested percentage in his notional account balance at the time of retirement or termination. An officer generally vests in his SERP account 20% each year, subject to accelerated vesting for death, disability and termination without cause or termination within 24 months following a change in control.

In connection with the spin-off, we expect our Board of Directors will adopt a nonqualified supplemental executive retirement plan substantially similar to McDermott’s SERP.

Executive Contributions in 2009. Employee contributions are not permitted under McDermott’s SERP.

Employer Contributions in 2009. McDermott makes annual contributions to participating employees’ notional accounts equal to a percentage of the employee’s prior-year compensation. Under the terms of the SERP, the contribution percentage does not need to be the same for each participant. Additionally, McDermott’s compensation committee may make a discretionary contribution to a participant’s account at any time.

For 2009, McDermott’s contributions equaled 5% of the Named Executives’ base salaries and annual incentive compensation awards paid in 2008. No discretionary contributions were made in 2009. All of McDermott’s 2009 contributions are included in the Summary Compensation Table above as “All Other Compensation.”

Aggregate Earnings in 2009. The amount reported in this table as earnings represents hypothetical accrued gains during 2009 on each Named Executive’s account. The accounts are “participant-directed” in that each participating officer personally directs the investment of contributions made on his behalf. As a result, any accrued gains or losses are attributable to the performance of the Named Executive’s notional mutual fund investments.

No amount of the earnings shown is reported as compensation in the Summary Compensation Table.

Aggregate Balance at 12/31/09. The balance of a participating officer’s account consists of contributions made by McDermott and hypothetical accrued gains or losses. The balances shown represent the accumulated account values (including gains and losses) for each Named Executive as of December 31, 2009.

150

The balances shown include contributions from previous years which have been reported as compensation to the Named Executives in the Summary Compensation Table for those years—to the extent a Named Executive was included in the Summary Compensation Table during those years. The amounts and years reported are as follows:

Named Executive	Year	Amount Reported
B.C. Bethards	2008	$	31,042.00
	2007		N/A
M.S. Taff	2008	$	31,125.00
	2007	$	20,705.85

In May 2009, McDermott’s compensation committee amended the SERP to vest SERP balances unvested on December 31, 2008 (including future gains and losses thereon). Amounts allocated on or after January 1, 2009 vest pursuant to the participant’s vested percentage based upon years of service. Accordingly, as of January 1, 2010, each Named Executive who participates in the SERP is 100% vested in his SERP balance shown, except Mr. Taff. Mr. Taff, who did not begin participating in McDermott’s SERP until 2006, is 92.19% vested in his SERP balance shown (100% vested in amounts allocated to his SERP account as of December 31, 2008 and 80% vested in amounts allocated to his SERP account during 2009).

151

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control

The following tables show potential payments to our Named Executives under existing contracts, agreements, plans or arrangements, whether written or unwritten, for various scenarios under which a payment would be due (assuming each is applicable) involving a change in control or termination of employment of each of our Named Executives, assuming a December 31, 2009 termination date and, where applicable, using the closing price of McDermott’s common stock of $24.01 (as reported on the New York Stock Exchange) as of December 31, 2009. These tables do not reflect amounts that would be payable to the Named Executives pursuant to benefits or awards that are already vested.

The amounts reported in the below tables for McDermott stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, deferred stock units and performance shares represent the value of unvested and accelerated shares or units, as applicable, calculated by:

• for stock options: multiplying the number of accelerated options by the difference between the exercise price and $24.01 (the closing price of McDermott’s common stock on December 31, 2009, as reported on the New York Stock Exchange);

• for restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance shares: multiplying the number of accelerated shares or units by $24.01 (the closing price of McDermott’s common stock on December 31, 2009, as reported on the New York Stock Exchange); and

• for deferred stock units (which represent a right to receive a cash payment equal to the product of the number of vested units and the average of the highest and lowest sales price of McDermott’s common stock on the vesting date): multiplying the number of accelerated units by $24.17 (the average of the highest and lowest price of McDermott’s common stock on December 31, 2009, as reported on the New York Stock Exchange).

Estimated Value of Benefits to Be Received Upon Involuntary Termination Without Cause

The following table shows the estimated value of payments and other benefits due the Named Executives assuming their involuntary termination without cause as of December 31, 2009.

Bethards and Taff, the amounts reported represent payments under the Severance Plan for Employees of McDermott Incorporated and Participating Subsidiary and Affiliated Companies assuming the Named Executives’ involuntary termination without cause. Through this severance plan, full-time employees of McDermott and participating subsidiaries are entitled to receive a severance benefit in the event their employment is terminated because of the elimination of a previously required position or previously required service, or due to the consolidation of departments, abandonment of plants or offices, or technological change or declining business activities, where such termination is intended to be permanent. The amount of severance benefit is determined based on the length of service and the employee’s base salary. In general, an eligible employee is entitled to a severance benefit of one half week of base salary for each year of service, subject to a maximum of 14 weeks of pay. For more information on the amounts paid to Messrs. Bethards and Taff, see “Retention Agreements” below.

SERP. The amount reported represents Mr. Taff’s SERP balance as of December 31, 2009 that would become vested on an involuntary termination not for cause. As discussed under “Compensation Discussion & Analysis—Post-Employment Compensation—Retirement Plans—Supplemental Plans,” Mr. Taff was 100% vested in amounts allocated to his account as of December 31, 2008, and was 80% vested in amounts allocated to his account during 2009. Messrs. Bethards and Nash were 100% vested in their SERP balance. Messrs. Killion and Mowry do not participate in the SERP. Under the SERP, termination for “cause” means:

• the overt and willful disobedience of orders or directives issued to a person who participates in the SERP (a “Participant”) that are within the scope of his duties, or any other willful and continued failure of a Participant to perform substantially his duties with McDermott (occasioned by reason other than physical or mental illness or disability) after a written demand for substantial performance is delivered to the Participant by McDermott’s compensation committee or the Chief Executive Officer of McDermott which specifically identifies the manner in which McDermott’s compensation committee or the Chief Executive Officer of McDermott believes that the Participant has not substantially performed his or her duties, after which the Participant will have 30 days to defend or remedy such failure to substantially perform his or her duties;

• the willful engaging by the Participant in illegal conduct or gross misconduct which is materially and demonstrably injurious to McDermott; or

• the conviction of the Participant with no further possibility of appeal, or plea of nolo contendere by the Participant to, any felony or crime of falsehood.

For more information on the amount reported for Mr. Taff, see “Retention Agreements” below.

Retention Agreements

The amounts reported for Messrs. Bethards and Taff assume the Named Executive was terminated on December 31, 2009 in connection with our separation from McDermott. In contemplation of the spin-off, on December 10, 2009, McDermott entered into retention agreements with certain key members of our management, including Messrs. Bethards and Taff (the “Retention Agreements”). The Retention Agreements provide either a retention or severance payment to these employees in connection with the disposition of all or substantially all of the stock or assets of B&W or J. Ray McDermott, S.A. (whether by a spin-off, sale or otherwise), which are referred to as a “restructuring transaction” in the Retention Agreements. In the event the applicable employee is terminated prior to the first anniversary of the effective date of the restructuring transaction, either (1) by the employer company for any reason other than cause or disability or (2) by the employee for good reason, the employer company is required to pay the Named Executive a cash severance payment, an EICP payment, 200% of the annual cost of coverage for medical, dental and vision benefits, and an amount equal to the unvested portion of the Named Executive’s Thrift Plan account. The Named Executive will also receive accelerated vesting with respect to his outstanding equity awards.

153

Under the Retention Agreements, “cause” is defined as:

• the willful and continued failure of the employee to perform substantially the employee’s duties (occasioned by reason other than physical or mental illness or disability of the employee) after a written demand for substantial performance is delivered to the employee by the compensation committee of the employer or the Chief Executive Officer of the employer which specifically identifies the manner in which the compensation committee or the Chief Executive Officer believes that employee has not substantially performed his or her duties, after which the employee will have 30 days to defend or remedy such failure to substantially perform his or her duties;

• the willful engaging by employee in illegal conduct or gross misconduct which is materially and demonstrably injurious to the employer; or

• the conviction of the employee with no further possibility of appeal, or plea of nolo contendere by the employee to, any felony or crime of falsehood.

Severance Payment. The severance payment that may be made to each Named Executive in connection with his termination of employment following a restructuring transaction is a cash payment equal to 200% of the sum of his annual base salary prior to termination and his EICP target award applicable to the year in which the termination occurs. Severance payments under a restructuring transaction are in lieu of any payment under any severance policy generally applicable to the salaried employees of McDermott. For a hypothetical termination as of December 31, 2009, the severance payment would have been calculated based on the following base salary and target EICP awards:

• Mr. Bethards: $526,200 base salary and $368,340 target EICP (70% of his base salary); and

• Mr. Taff: $505,000 base salary and $353,500 target EICP (70% of his base salary).

EICP Payment. The EICP is an annual cash-based performance incentive plan under which payments are made in the year following the year in which performance is measured. For example, 2009 EICP awards are paid in 2010 for performance achieved in 2009. As a result, depending on the timing of the termination relative to the payment of an EICP award, a Named Executive could receive up to two EICP payments in connection with termination resulting from a restructuring transaction, as follows:

• If an EICP award for the year prior to termination is paid to other EICP participants after the date of the Named Executive’s termination, the Named Executive would be entitled to a cash payment equal to the product of the Named Executive’s EICP target percentage and the Named Executive’s annual base salary for the applicable period. No such payment would have been due a named Executive on a December 31, 2009 termination, because the 2008 EICP awards had already been paid prior to the Named Executive’s termination date.

• The Named Executive would be entitled to a prorated EICP payment based upon the Named Executive’s target award for the year in which the termination occurs and the number of days in which the executive was employed with McDermott during that year. Based on a hypothetical December 31, 2009 termination, each Named Executive would have been entitled to an EICP payment equal to 100% of his 2009 target EICP. Mr. Bethards’ 2009 target EICP was $368,340 and Mr. Taff’s 2009 target EICP was $353,500.

SERP. The Retention Agreements provide for full vesting in a Named Executive’s SERP account balance upon termination under a restructuring transaction. The amount reported represents Mr. Taff’s SERP balance as of December 31, 2009 that would become vested upon his termination under a restructuring transaction. Mr. Bethards was 100% vested in his SERP balance as of December 31, 2009.

Benefits. The amounts reported represent two times the full annual cost of coverage for medical, dental and vision benefits provided to the Named Executive and the Named Executive’s covered dependents for the year ended December 31, 2009.

154

Equity Awards. The amounts reported for McDermott stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance shares represent the value of unvested and accelerated stock options, shares or units, as applicable, for the 2008 and 2009 grants of such awards. The amounts reported for the 2008 and 2009 performance share grants represent the value of such grants calculated as to the initial grant of the shares.

Estimated Value of Benefits to Be Received Upon Normal Retirement

The following table shows the estimated value of payments and other benefits due the Named Executives assuming their retirement as of December 31, 2009. This table does not reflect amounts that would be payable to the Named Executives pursuant to benefits or awards that are already vested (for example, pension benefits). See the “Pension Benefits” table above for more information on pension benefits.

SERP. Under the terms of the SERP, participants are eligible for retirement upon attaining age 65. Mr. Nash is eligible for retirement under the terms of the SERP, but was 100% vested as of December 31, 2009.

Equity Awards. Generally, the terms of McDermott stock and option award grants define retirement as a voluntary termination of employment after attaining age 60 and completing 10 years of service with McDermott. Under this definition, the Named Executives eligible for retirement as of a December 31, 2009 were Messrs. Bethards, Killion and Nash. The outstanding grants of restricted stock and restricted stock units and the unvested grants of stock options provide for accelerated vesting of a percentage of the Named Executive’s outstanding shares and units if his retirement date is on or after the first anniversary of the grant date, and a greater percentage of accelerated vesting if his retirement date is on or after the second anniversary of the grant date. The outstanding grants of deferred stock units vest 100% upon termination due to normal retirement under a funded or unfunded retirement plan of McDermott or any subsidiary. Mr. Nash is eligible for accelerated vesting of deferred stock units.

McDermott has change-in-control agreements with various officers, including Messrs. Bethards and Taff. Generally, under these agreements, if a Named Executive is terminated within one year following a change in control either (1) by McDermott for any reason other than cause or death or disability; or (2) by the Named Executive for good reason, McDermott is required to pay the Named Executive a cash severance payment, an EICP payment and, if applicable, a tax gross-up payment. In addition to these payments, the Named Executive would be entitled to various accrued benefits earned through the date of termination, such as earned but unpaid salary, earned but unused vacation and reimbursements.

Under these agreements, a “change in control” occurs if:

• a person (other than a McDermott employee benefit plan or a corporation owned by McDermott stockholders in substantially the same proportion as their ownership of McDermott voting shares) becomes the beneficial owner of 30% or more of the combined voting power of McDermott’s then outstanding voting stock;

• during any period of two consecutive years, individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute McDermott’s Board of Directors, and any new director whose election or nomination by McDermott’s Board was approved by at least two-thirds of the directors of McDermott’s Board then still in office who either were directors at the beginning of the period or whose election or nomination was previously approved, cease to constitute a majority of McDermott’s Board;

• McDermott’s stockholders approve: (1) a merger or consolidation of McDermott with another company, other than a merger or consolidation which would result in McDermott’s voting securities outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent at least 50% of the voting stock of McDermott or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation; (2) a plan of complete liquidation of McDermott; or (3) an agreement for the sale or disposition by McDermott of all or substantially all of McDermott’s assets; or

• any other set of circumstances is deemed by McDermott’s Board in its sole discretion to constitute a change in control.

157

Severance Payment. The severance payment made to each Named Executive in connection with a change in control is a cash payment equal to 200% of the sum of his annual base salary prior to termination and his EICP target award applicable to the year in which the termination occurs. For a hypothetical termination as of December 31, 2009, the severance payment following a change-in-control event would have been calculated the same as a termination under a restructuring transaction. For more information, see “Retention Agreements” above.

EICP Payment. The amounts reported represent the EICP payments made to the Named Executives in connection with a change in control. The amount paid is calculated the same as a termination under a restructuring transaction. For more information, see “Retention Agreements” above.

SERP. The amount reported represents Mr. Taff’s SERP balance as of December 31, 2009 that would become vested in connection with a termination of employment following a change in control. Mr. Taff was 100% vested in amounts allocated to his account as of December 31, 2008 and was 80% vested in amounts allocated to his account during 2009. The amount shown would be due to Mr. Taff if he was terminated without cause within one year after a change in control. Messrs. Bethards and Nash are 100% vested in their SERP balance. Messrs. Killion and Mowry do not participate in the SERP. Under the SERP, a “change in control” occurs under the same circumstances described above with respect to McDermott’s change in control agreements.

Benefits. The amounts reported represent two times the full annual cost of coverage for medical, dental and vision benefits provided to the Named Executive and the Named Executive’s covered dependents for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Tax Gross-Up. If any payment is subject to the excise tax imposed by section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, McDermott would reimburse the affected Named Executive for all excise taxes imposed under section 4999 and any income and excise taxes that are payable as a result of such reimbursement. The calculation of the section 4999 gross-up amount in the above table is based upon a section 4999 excise tax rate of 20%, a 35% federal income tax rate, a 1.45% Medicare tax rate and a state income tax rate of 7.75% for Mr. Bethards.

Equity Awards. Under the terms of the McDermott awards outstanding, all unvested restricted stock, restricted stock units and deferred stock units would become vested on a change in control, regardless of whether there is a subsequent termination of employment. All unvested stock options would become vested and exercisable on a change in control, regardless of whether there is a subsequent termination of employment. Performance shares are subject to accelerated vesting on a change in control, regardless of whether there is a subsequent termination of employment. Under McDermott’s 2001 D&O Plan, a “change in control” occurs under the same circumstances described above with respect to McDermott’s change-in-control agreements.

New Compensation Plans

2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan of The Babcock & Wilcox Company

We intend to adopt the 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan of The Babcock & Wilcox Company (the “2010 LTIP”), which is expected to be approved by McDermott as our sole shareholder before the spin-off. The following is a general description of the 2010 LTIP.

Administration. The 2010 LTIP will be administered by the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors. The Compensation Committee will select the participants and determine the type or types of awards and the number of shares, units or options to be granted to each participant under the 2010 LTIP. All or part of an award may be subject to conditions established by the Compensation Committee, which may include continued

158

service with our company, achievement of specific business objectives, increases in specified indices, attainment of specified growth rates or other measures of performance. The Compensation Committee will have full and final authority to implement the 2010 LTIP and may, from time to time, adopt rules and regulations in order to carry out the terms of the 2010 LTIP. As permitted by law, the Compensation Committee may delegate its duties under the 2010 LTIP to our chief executive officer and other senior officers.

Eligibility. Members of the Board of Directors and employees of our company and its subsidiaries (including former employees of subsidiaries and their respective subsidiaries), as well as consultants, will be eligible to participate in the 2010 LTIP. The Compensation Committee will select the participants for the 2010 LTIP. Any participant may receive more than one award under the 2010 LTIP.

Shares Available for Issuance through the 2010 LTIP. 10,000,000 shares have been approved for issuance under the 2010 LTIP, including shares to be issued in connection with the spin-off.

The 2010 LTIP provides for a number of forms of stock-based compensation, as further described below. The 2010 LTIP also permits the reuse or reissuance under the 2010 LTIP of shares of common stock underlying canceled, expired, terminated or forfeited awards granted under the 2010 LTIP. The Compensation Committee shall make appropriate adjustments in the number and kind of shares that may be issued, the number and kind of shares subject to outstanding awards, the exercise or other applicable price and other value determinations applicable to outstanding awards under the 2010 LTIP to reflect any amendment to the 2010 LTIP, stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, reorganization, combination or exchange of shares or other similar event.

Types of Awards Under the 2010 LTIP. The Compensation Committee may award to participants incentive and nonqualified stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and performance units. The forms of awards are described in greater detail below.

Stock Options. The Compensation Committee will have discretion to award incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options. A stock option is a right to purchase a specified number of shares of common stock at a specified exercise price. An incentive stock option is intended to qualify as such under Section 422 of the Code. Under the 2010 LTIP, no participant may be granted options during any fiscal year that are exercisable for more than 1,200,000 shares of our common stock. The exercise price of an option may not be less than the fair market value of a share of our common stock on the date of grant. Subject to the specific terms of the 2010 LTIP, the Compensation Committee will have discretion to determine the number of shares, the exercise price, the terms and conditions of exercise and such additional limitations on and terms of option grants as it deems appropriate.

Options granted to participants under the 2010 LTIP will expire at such times as the Compensation Committee determines at the time of the grant, but no option will be exercisable later than seven years after the date of grant. Each option award agreement will set forth the extent to which the participant will have the right to exercise the option following termination of the participant’s employment. The termination provisions will be determined within the discretion of the Compensation Committee, need not be uniform among all participants and may reflect distinctions based on reasons for termination of employment.

Upon the exercise of an option granted under the 2010 LTIP, the exercise price is payable in full to us (1) in cash; (2) if permitted, by tendering shares of our common stock having a fair market value at the time of exercise equal to the total option price; (3) if permitted, by a combination of (1) and (2); or (4) by any other method approved by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion.

Restricted Stock. The Compensation Committee also is authorized to award restricted shares of common stock under the 2010 LTIP on such terms and conditions as it shall establish. Although recipients will own and have the right to vote restricted shares from the date of grant, they will not have the right to sell or otherwise transfer the shares during the applicable period of restriction or until earlier satisfaction of other conditions

159

imposed by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion. The award agreement will specify the periods of restriction, any restrictions based on achievement of specific performance objectives, restrictions under applicable federal or state securities laws and such other terms it deems appropriate. Unless the Compensation Committee otherwise determines, participants will receive dividends on their shares of restricted stock. The Compensation Committee in its discretion may apply any restrictions to the dividends that it deems appropriate.

Each award agreement for restricted stock will set forth the extent to which the participant will have the right to retain unvested shares of restricted stock following termination of the participant’s employment. These provisions will be determined in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee, need not be uniform among all participants and may reflect distinctions based on reasons for termination of employment.

Restricted Stock Units. An award of a restricted stock unit constitutes an agreement by us to deliver shares of our common stock or to pay an amount equal to the fair market value of a share of our common stock for each restricted stock unit to a participant in the future. Restricted stock units may be granted by the Compensation Committee on such terms and conditions as it may establish. The restricted stock unit award agreement will specify the vesting period or periods, any specific performance objectives and such other conditions as may apply to the award. During the applicable vesting period, participants will have no voting rights with respect to the shares of common stock underlying a restricted stock unit grant. However, participants shall, unless the Compensation Committee otherwise determines, receive dividend equivalents on the shares underlying their restricted stock unit grant in the form of cash or additional restricted stock units if a dividend is paid with respect to shares of our common stock.

Each award agreement for restricted stock units will set forth the extent to which the participant will have the right to retain unvested restricted stock units following termination of employment. These provisions will be determined in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee, need not be uniform among all participants and may reflect distinctions based on reasons for termination of employment.

No more than 1,200,000 shares of common stock may be granted in the form of awards of restricted stock and restricted stock units to any participant in any fiscal year.

Performance Units and Performance Shares. Performance units and performance shares are forms of performance awards that are subject to the attainment of one or more pre-established performance goals during a designated performance period. Performance units and performance shares may be granted by the Compensation Committee at any time in such amounts and on such terms as the Compensation Committee determines. Each performance unit will have an initial value that is established by the Compensation Committee at the time of grant.

Each performance unit and performance share will have an initial value equal to the fair market value of a share of our common stock on the date of grant. The Compensation Committee in its discretion will determine the applicable performance period and will establish performance goals for any given performance period. When the performance period expires, the holder of performance units or performance shares will be entitled to receive a payout on the performance units or performance shares earned over the performance period based on the extent to which the performance goals have been achieved.

Participants holding performance units or performance shares are not entitled to receive dividend units for dividends declared with respect to shares of our common stock underlying such awards. Payment of performance units and performance shares may be made in cash or in shares of common stock that have an aggregate fair market value equal to the earned performance units or performance shares on the last day of the applicable performance period. Each award agreement will set forth the extent to which the participant will have the right to receive a payout of these performance units or performance shares following termination of the participant’s employment. The termination provisions will be determined in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee, need not be uniform among all participants and may reflect distinctions based on reasons for termination of employment.

160

No more than 1,200,000 shares of common stock may be granted in the form of awards of performance shares to any participant in any fiscal year. No more than $6,000,000 may be paid in cash to any participant with respect to performance units granted in any fiscal year, as valued on the date of each grant.

Performance Measures. The Compensation Committee may grant awards under the 2010 LTIP to eligible employees subject to the attainment of specified performance measures. The number of performance-based awards granted to an employee in any year will be determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion, subject to the limitations set forth in the 2010 LTIP. The value of each performance-based award will be determined based on the achievement of pre-established, objective performance goals during each performance period. The duration of a performance period is set by the Compensation Committee. A new performance period may begin every year, or at more frequent or less frequent intervals, as determined by the Compensation Committee.

The Compensation Committee will establish the objective performance goals applicable to the valuation of performance-based awards granted in each performance period, the performance measures that will be used to determine the achievement of those performance goals and any formulas or methods to be used to determine the value of the performance-based awards.

Performance measures will be defined by the Compensation Committee on a consolidated, segment, group or division basis and/or in comparison to one or more peer groups or indices. Performance measures selected by the Compensation Committee will be based on one or more of the following: cash flow; cash flow return on capital; cash flow return on assets; cash flow return on equity; net income; return on capital; return on assets; return on equity; share price; earnings per share; earnings before interest and taxes; earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization; total and relative shareholder return; operating income; return on net assets; gross or operating margins; safety and economic value added. Following the end of a performance period, the Compensation Committee will determine the value of the performance-based awards granted for the period based on its determination of the degree of attainment of the pre-established objective performance goals. The Compensation Committee will also have discretion to reduce (and, if intended to qualify as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code, not to increase) the value of a performance-based award to “Covered Employees,” as defined in Section 162(m) of the Code.

Deferrals. The Compensation Committee will have the discretion to provide for the deferral of an award or to permit participants to elect to defer payment of some or all types of awards in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

Change in Control. The treatment of outstanding awards upon the occurrence of a change in control (as defined in the 2010 LTIP) will be determined in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee and will be described in the applicable award agreements and need not be uniform among all awards granted under the 2010 LTIP.

Amendments. The 2010 LTIP may be modified, altered, suspended or terminated by the Board of Directors at any time and for any purpose that the Board of Directors deems appropriate, but no amendment to the 2010 LTIP shall adversely affect any outstanding awards without the affected participant’s consent, and stockholder approval may be required by applicable law, regulation or stock exchange requirements.

Transferability.

The Babcock & Wilcox Company Executive Compensation Plan

We intend to adopt The Babcock & Wilcox Company Executive Incentive Compensation Plan (the “B&W EICP”) before the spin-off. The following is a general description of the B&W EICP.

The B&W EICP will be a cash incentive plan administered by the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors. Except as prohibited by law, the Compensation Committee may generally delegate its duties under the B&W EICP to our chief executive officer and other executive officers.

All of our full-time salaried employees will be eligible to participate in the B&W EICP. Our Chief Executive Officer will automatically participate. Actual participation in the EICP by other employees will be based upon recommendations by our Chief Executive Officer, subject to approval by the Compensation Committee.

The Compensation Committee will establish, for each plan year, performance goals and award opportunities, in writing, which correspond to various levels of achievement of the preestablished performance goals based upon any combination of corporate, segment, group, divisional or individual goals. The award opportunity for any participant who is included in the group of “covered employees” (as defined in Section 162(m) of the Code) will be based on the following performance criteria:

• the award to be paid upon meeting preestablished targeted performance results;

• the potential final award in relation to the various levels of achievement of the preestablished performance goals; and

• company, segment, group or division performance in relation to the preestablished performance goals.

Performance measures that may be used to determine award opportunities for Named Executive Officers are generally limited to cash flow, cash flow return on capital, cash flow return on equity, net income, operating income, return on capital, return on assets, return on equity and economic value added (each as defined in the B&W EICP) and other measures consistent with deductibility under Code Section 162(m). Once established, performance goals normally cannot be changed during the plan year. However, the Compensation Committee may adjust performance goals to account for changes in accounting principles, unusual, nonrecurring events and extraordinary items, to the extent not inconsistent with Code Section 162(m). The Compensation Committee shall have the authority to reduce or eliminate final awards, based upon any criteria it deems appropriate. In addition, the Compensation Committee may use such other performance measures, including subjective measures, and make adjustments to performance goals during the plan year, if the Compensation Committee determines that it is advisable for an award not to qualify for the performance-based exception from the deductibility limitations of Code Section 162(m).

Following the end of each plan year, awards will be computed for each plan participant. Final individual awards may vary above or below the target award, based on the level of achievement of the preestablished performance goal. The B&W EICP will place a limit of $3,000,000 on payouts to any one plan participant in any given plan year for tax deductibility reasons but grant authority to the Compensation Committee to exceed those limits in its discretion. The Board of Directors may amend the B&W EICP from time to time.

The foregoing description of the B&W EICP does not purport to be complete and is qualified by reference to the B&W EICP.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

Before the spin-off, all of the outstanding shares of our common stock are and will be owned beneficially and of record by McDermott. The following table sets forth information with respect to the expected beneficial ownership of our common stock immediately following completion of the spin-off by:

• each stockholder who is expected following the spin-off to beneficially own more than 5% of our common stock;

• each executive officer named in the Summary Compensation Table;

• each of our directors; and

• all of our executive officers and directors as a group.

We have based the percentage of class amounts set forth below on each indicated person’s beneficial ownership of McDermott common stock as of [                    ], 2010, unless we indicate some other basis for the share amounts, and based on the distribution of one share of our common stock for every [            ] shares of McDermott common stock outstanding. To the extent our directors and executive officers own unrestricted shares of McDermott common stock at the time of the spin-off, they will participate in the distribution of shares of common stock in the spin-off on the same terms as other holders of McDermott common stock. Following the spin-off, we will have an aggregate of approximately [            ] million shares of common stock outstanding, based on approximately [            ] million shares of McDermott common stock outstanding on [                    ], 2010. The number of shares beneficially owned by each stockholder, director or officer is determined according to the rules of the SEC and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. The mailing address for each of the directors and executive officers is c/o The Babcock & Wilcox Company, The Harris Building, 13024 Ballantyne Corporate Place, Suite 700, Charlotte, North Carolina 28277.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

Introduction

In the discussion that follows, we have summarized selected provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws relating to our capital stock. This summary is not complete. This discussion is subject to the relevant provisions of Delaware law and is qualified in its entirety by reference to our restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws. You should read the provisions of our restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws as currently in effect for provisions that may be important to you. We have filed copies of those documents with the SEC, and they are incorporated by reference as exhibits to the registration statement on Form 10 of which this information statement forms a part. See “Where You Can Find More Information.”

Authorized Capital Stock

Our authorized capital stock consists of:

• 325,000,000 shares of common stock; and

• 75,000,000 shares of preferred stock, issuable in series.

Each authorized share of common stock has a par value of $0.01. The authorized shares of preferred stock have a par value of $0.01 per share. Immediately following the spin-off, we expect that approximately [            ] shares of our common stock will be outstanding, based on the distribution of one share of our common stock for every [            ] shares of McDermott common stock outstanding and the anticipated number of shares of McDermott common stock outstanding as of the record date. The actual number of shares of our common stock to be distributed in the spin-off will be determined based on the actual number of shares of McDermott common stock outstanding as of the record date. Immediately following the spin-off, no shares of our preferred stock will be issued and outstanding.

Common Stock

Each share of our common stock entitles its holder to one vote in the election of each director and on all other matters voted on generally by our stockholders, other than any matter that (1) solely relates to the terms of any outstanding series of preferred stock or the number of shares of that series and (2) does not affect the number of authorized shares of preferred stock or the powers, privileges and rights pertaining to the common stock. No share of our common stock affords any cumulative voting rights. This means that the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares voting for the election of directors can elect all directors to be elected if they choose to do so. Our board of directors may grant holders of preferred stock, in the resolutions creating the series of preferred stock, the right to vote on the election of directors or any questions affecting our company.

Holders of our common stock will be entitled to dividends in such amounts and at such times as our board of directors in its discretion may declare out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends. We currently intend to retain our entire available discretionary cash flow to finance the growth, development and expansion of our business and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on the common stock in the foreseeable future. Any future dividends will be paid at the discretion of our board of directors after taking into account various factors, including:

• general business conditions;

• industry practice;

• our financial condition and performance;

• our future prospects;

• our cash needs and capital investment plans;

164

• our obligations to holders of any preferred stock we may issue;

• income tax consequences; and

• the restrictions Delaware and other applicable laws and our credit arrangements then impose.

In addition, the credit agreement relating to our revolving credit facility restricts our ability to pay cash dividends.

If we liquidate or dissolve our business, the holders of our common stock will share ratably in all our assets that are available for distribution to our stockholders after our creditors are paid in full and the holders of all series of our outstanding preferred stock, if any, receive their liquidation preferences in full.

Our common stock has no preemptive rights and is not convertible or redeemable or entitled to the benefits of any sinking or repurchase fund. All shares of common stock to be distributed in connection with the spin-off will be fully paid and nonassessable.

Our shares of common stock have been approved for listing on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “BWC.”

The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is Computershare Trust Company, N.A.

Preferred Stock

At the direction of our board of directors, without any action by the holders of our common stock, we may issue one or more series of preferred stock from time to time. Our board of directors can determine the number of shares of each series of preferred stock, the designation, powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions applicable to any of those rights, including dividend rights, voting rights, conversion or exchange rights, terms of redemption and liquidation preferences, of each series.

Undesignated preferred stock may enable our board of directors to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of our company by means of a tender offer, proxy contest, merger or otherwise, and thereby to protect the continuity of our management. The issuance of shares of preferred stock may adversely affect the rights of our common stockholders. For example, any preferred stock issued may rank prior to the common stock as to dividend rights, liquidation preference or both, may have full or limited voting rights and may be convertible into shares of common stock. As a result, the issuance of shares of preferred stock, or the issuance of rights to purchase shares of preferred stock, may discourage an unsolicited acquisition proposal or bids for our common stock or may otherwise adversely affect the market price of our common stock or any existing preferred stock.

Limitation on Directors’ Liability

Delaware law authorizes Delaware corporations to limit or eliminate the personal liability of their directors to them and their stockholders for monetary damages for breach of a director’s fiduciary duty of care. The duty of care requires that, when acting on behalf of the corporation, directors must exercise an informed business judgment based on all material information reasonably available to them. Absent the limitations Delaware law authorizes, directors of Delaware corporations are accountable to those corporations and their stockholders for monetary damages for conduct constituting gross negligence in the exercise of their duty of care. Delaware law enables Delaware corporations to limit available relief to equitable remedies such as injunction or rescission. Our certificate of incorporation limits the liability of our directors to us and our stockholders to the fullest extent Delaware law permits. Specifically, no director will be personally liable for monetary damages for any breach of the director’s fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability:

• for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders;

• for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

165

• for unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law; and

• for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

This provision could have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against our directors and may discourage or deter our stockholders or management from bringing a lawsuit against our directors for breach of their duty of care, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise have benefited us and our stockholders. Our bylaws provide indemnification to our officers and directors and other specified persons with respect to their conduct in various capacities. See “Indemnification of Directors and Officers.”

Statutory Business Combination Provision

As a Delaware corporation, we are subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. In general, Section 203 prevents an “interested stockholder,” which is defined generally as a person owning 15% or more of a Delaware corporation’s outstanding voting stock or any affiliate or associate of that person, from engaging in a broad range of “business combinations” with the corporation for three years following the date that person became an interested stockholder unless:

• before that person became an interested stockholder, the board of directors of the corporation approved the transaction in which that person became an interested stockholder or approved the business combination;

• on completion of the transaction that resulted in that person’s becoming an interested stockholder, that person owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, other than stock held by (1) directors who are also officers of the corporation or (2) any employee stock plan that does not provide employees with the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or

• following the transaction in which that person became an interested stockholder, both the board of directors of the corporation and the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation not owned by that person approve the business combination.

Under Section 203, the restrictions described above also do not apply to specific business combinations proposed by an interested stockholder following the announcement or notification of designated extraordinary transactions involving the corporation and a person who had not been an interested stockholder during the previous three years or who became an interested stockholder with the approval of a majority of the corporation’s directors, if a majority of the directors who were directors prior to any person’s becoming an interested stockholder during the previous three years, or were recommended for election or elected to succeed those directors by a majority of those directors, approve or do not oppose that extraordinary transaction.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws

Some of the provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws discussed below may have the effect, either alone or in combination with Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, of making more difficult or discouraging a tender offer, proxy contest, merger or other takeover attempt that our board of directors opposes but that a stockholder might consider to be in its best interest.

Our certificate of incorporation provides that our stockholders may act only at an annual or special meeting of stockholders and may not act by written consent. Our bylaws provide that only a majority of our board of directors or the chairman of our board of directors may call a special meeting of our board of directors or our stockholders.

166

Our certificate of incorporation provides for a classified board of directors. Except for directors that our preferred stockholders may elect, our board of directors is divided into three classes, with the directors of each class as nearly equal in number as possible. At each annual meeting of our stockholders, the term of a different class of our directors will expire. As a result, we contemplate that our stockholders will elect approximately one-third of our board of directors each year. Our board of directors believes that a classified board structure facilitates continuity and stability of leadership and policy by helping ensure that, at any given time, a majority of our directors will have prior experience as directors of our company and will be familiar with its business and operations. This will, in the view of our board of directors, permit more effective long-term planning and help create long-term value for our stockholders. Board classification could, however, prevent a party who acquires control of a majority of our outstanding voting stock from obtaining control of our board of directors until the second annual stockholders’ meeting following the date that party obtains that control. This system of electing and removing directors may discourage a third party from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, because it generally makes it more difficult for stockholders to replace a majority of the directors.

Our certificate of incorporation provides that the number of directors will be fixed exclusively by, and may be increased or decreased exclusively by, our board of directors from time to time, but will not be less than three. Our certificate of incorporation provides that directors may be removed only with cause or upon a board determination (as such terms are defined in our certificate of incorporation) and, in either case, by a vote of at least 80% of the voting power of our outstanding voting stock. A vacancy on our board of directors may be filled by a vote of a majority of the directors in office, and a director appointed to fill a vacancy serves for the remainder of the term of the class of directors in which the vacancy occurred. These provisions will prevent our stockholders from removing incumbent directors without cause and filling the resulting vacancies with their own nominees.

Our bylaws contain advance notice and other procedural requirements that apply to stockholder nominations of persons for election to our board of directors at any annual or special meeting of stockholders and to stockholder proposals that stockholders take any other action at any annual meeting. In the case of any annual meeting, a stockholder proposing to nominate a person for election to our board of directors or proposing that any other action be taken must give our corporate secretary written notice of the proposal not less than 90 days and not more than 120 days before the anniversary of the date of the immediately preceding annual meeting of stockholders. These stockholder proposal deadlines are subject to exceptions if the pending annual meeting date is more than 30 days prior to or more than 30 days after the anniversary of the immediately preceding annual meeting. If the chairman of our board of directors or a majority of our board of directors calls a special meeting of stockholders for the election of directors, a stockholder proposing to nominate a person for that election must give our corporate secretary written notice of the proposal not earlier than 120 days prior to that special meeting and not later than the last to occur of (1) 90 days prior to that special meeting or (2) the 10th day following the day we publicly disclose the date of the special meeting. Our bylaws prescribe specific information that any such stockholder notice must contain. These advance notice provisions may have the effect of precluding a contest for the election of our directors or the consideration of stockholder proposals if the proper procedures are not followed, and of discouraging or deterring a third party from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect its own slate of directors or to approve its own proposal, without regard to whether consideration of those nominees or proposals might be harmful or beneficial to us and our stockholders.

Our certificate of incorporation provides that our stockholders may adopt, amend and repeal our bylaws at any regular or special meeting of stockholders by a vote of at least 80% of the voting power of our outstanding voting stock, provided the notice of intention to adopt, amend or repeal the bylaws has been included in the notice of that meeting. Our certificate of incorporation also confers on our board of directors the power to adopt, amend or repeal our bylaws with the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office.

As discussed above under “—Preferred Stock,” our certificate of incorporation authorizes our board of directors, without the approval of our stockholders, to provide for the issuance of all or any shares of our

167

preferred stock in one or more series and to determine the designation, powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions applicable to any of those rights, including dividend rights, voting rights, conversion or exchange rights, terms of redemption and liquidation preferences, of each series. The issuance of shares of our preferred stock or rights to purchase shares of our preferred stock could discourage an unsolicited acquisition proposal. In addition, under some circumstances, the issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of our common stockholders.

In addition to the purposes described above, these provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws are also intended to increase the bargaining leverage of our board of directors, on behalf of our stockholders, in any future negotiations concerning a potential change of control of our company. Our board of directors has observed that certain tactics that bidders employ in making unsolicited bids for control of a corporation, including hostile tender offers and proxy contests, have become relatively common in modern takeover practice. Our board of directors considers those tactics to be highly disruptive to a corporation and often contrary to the overall best interests of its stockholders. In particular, bidders may use these tactics in conjunction with an attempt to acquire a corporation at an unfairly low price. In some cases, a bidder will make an offer for less than all the outstanding capital stock of the target company, potentially leaving stockholders with the alternatives of partially liquidating their investment at a time that may be disadvantageous to them or retaining an investment in the target company under substantially different management with objectives that may not be the same as the new controlling stockholder. The concentration of control in our company that could result from such an offer could deprive our remaining stockholders of the benefits of listing on the New York Stock Exchange and public reporting under the Exchange Act.

While our board of directors does not intend to foreclose or discourage reasonable merger or acquisition proposals, it believes that value for our stockholders can be enhanced by encouraging would-be acquirers to forego hostile or coercive tender offers and negotiate with the Board terms that are fair to all stockholders. Our board of directors believes that the provisions described above will (1) discourage disruptive tactics and takeover attempts at unfair prices or on terms that do not provide all stockholders with the opportunity to sell their stock at a fair price and (2) encourage third parties who may seek to acquire control of our company to initiate such an acquisition through negotiations directly with our board of directors. Our Board also believes these provisions will help give it the time necessary to evaluate unsolicited offers, as well as appropriate alternatives, in a manner that assures fair treatment of our stockholders. Our board of directors recognizes that a takeover might in some circumstances be beneficial to some or all of our stockholders, but, nevertheless, believes that the benefits of seeking to protect its ability to negotiate with the proponent of an unfriendly or unsolicited proposal to take over or restructure our company outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging those proposals.

168

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a corporation may indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals against expenses including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with various actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation, such as a derivative action), if they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, if they had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. A similar standard is applicable in the case of any actions by or in the right of the corporation, except that indemnification only extends to expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such actions, and the statute requires court approval before there can be any indemnification where the person seeking indemnification has been found liable to the corporation. The statute provides that it is not exclusive of other indemnification that may be granted by a corporation’s certificate of incorporation, bylaws, agreement, a vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

Our certificate of incorporation provides that we will indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law as it presently exists or may be amended, any person who was or is made or is threatened to be made a party or is otherwise involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such person or a person for whom such person is the legal representative, is or was a director or officer of us or, while a director or officer of us, is or was serving at our request as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, against all liability and losses suffered and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding. Our certificate of incorporation also provides that we will pay the expenses incurred by a director or officer in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition, subject to such person providing us with specified undertakings. Notwithstanding the foregoing, our certificate of incorporation provides that we shall be required to indemnify or make advances to a person in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person only if the proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by our board of directors. These rights are not exclusive of any other right that any person may have or may acquire under any statute, provision of our certificate of incorporation, bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise. No amendment, modification or repeal of those provisions will in any way adversely affect any right or protection under those provisions of any person in respect of any act or omission occurring prior to the time of such amendment, modification or repeal.

Our certificate of incorporation also permits us to secure and maintain insurance on behalf of any of our directors, officers, employees or agents and each person who is, or was, serving at our request as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust or other enterprise for any liability asserted against and incurred by such person in any such capacity. We intend to obtain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance providing coverage to our directors and officers.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors of McDermott International, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheets of The Babcock & Wilcox Operations of McDermott International, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related combined statements of income, comprehensive income (loss), parent equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2009. Our audits also included the financial statement schedules listed in the index at Item 15. These financial statements and financial statement schedules are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedules based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such combined financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2009, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic combined financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

As discussed in Note 1 to the combined financial statements, the accompanying combined financial statements have been prepared from the separate records maintained by the Company and may not necessarily be indicative of the conditions that would have existed or the results of operations if the Company had been operated as an unaffiliated entity. Portions of certain expenses include allocations of corporate items applicable to McDermott International, Inc. as a whole.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company, Basis of Presentation and Principles of Combination

The Babcock & Wilcox Operations of McDermott International, Inc. (the “Company”) represent a combined reporting entity comprised of the assets and liabilities used in managing and operating the Power Generation Systems and Government Operations segments of McDermott International, Inc. (“MII”) in addition to two captive insurance companies which will be contributed to The Babcock & Wilcox Company in conjunction with the planned spin-off. On December 7, 2009, MII announced a plan to separate MII into two independent, publicly traded companies that will be effected through a spin-off transaction that is intended to be tax-free to MII.

The accompanying combined financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the combined financial statements. We use the equity method to account for investments in entities that we do not control, but over which we have significant influence. We generally refer to these entities as “joint ventures.” Income from investees net of dividends received reported on our combined statement of cash flows is different from equity in income of investees reported on our combined statement of income due to the timing of cash dividends received from our equity method investees. We record our share of proportionate income from our investees on a monthly basis based on the net income of our investees. Cash dividends are declared by these investees periodically and will usually not match our equity in income from investees in any given period. We present the notes to our combined financial statements on the basis of continuing operations, unless otherwise stated.

The combined results of operations, financial position and cash flows reflected in the accompanying combined financial statements may not be indicative of the future performance of the combined businesses and do not necessarily reflect what its combined results of operations, financial position and cash flows would have been had the combined businesses operated as an independent public company during the periods presented, including changes in its operations and capitalization as a result of the separation and distribution from MII.

Certain corporate and general and administrative expenses, including those related to executive management, tax, accounting, legal and treasury services, and certain employee benefits, have been allocated based on a level of effort calculation. Level of effort is a methodology requiring employees to estimate time spent for each business segment on the various functions described above. We prepare budgets for the various departments and allocate costs from corporate to the appropriate segment based on the time factor calculated and departmental costs. Management believes such allocations are reasonable. However, the associated expenses reflected in the accompanying combined statements of income may not be indicative of the actual expenses that would have been incurred had the combined businesses been operating as an independent public company for the periods presented. Following the separation and distribution from MII, B&W will perform these functions using internal resources or purchased services, certain of which may be provided by MII during a transitional period pursuant to a transition services agreement. Refer to Note 5—Related Party Transactions for a detailed description of transactions with other affiliates of MII.

In presenting the combined financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and related disclosures. Estimates, by their nature, are based on judgment and available information. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

As used in these footnote disclosures, the following terms have the meanings set forth below:

• MII (or McDermott) means McDermott International, Inc., a Panamanian corporation;

• BHI means Babcock & Wilcox Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation;

F-8

THE BABCOCK & WILCOX OPERATIONS OF McDERMOTT INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

• MI means McDermott Incorporated, a Delaware corporation and a subsidiary of BHI, and its consolidated subsidiaries;

• BWICO means Babcock & Wilcox Investment Company, a Delaware corporation and a subsidiary of MI, and its consolidated subsidiaries;

• BWXT means BWX Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a subsidiary of BWICO, and its consolidated subsidiaries;

• B&W PGG means Babcock & Wilcox Power Generation Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a subsidiary of BWICO, and its consolidated subsidiaries; and

• JRM means J. Ray McDermott, S.A., a Panamanian corporation and a subsidiary of MII, and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Unless the context otherwise indicates, “we,” “us” and “our” mean The Babcock & Wilcox Operations of McDermott International, Inc.

We operate in two business segments: Power Generation Systems; and Government Operations.

Our Power Generation Systems segment includes the business and operations of Babcock & Wilcox Power Generation Group, Inc. (“B&W PGG”) and Babcock & Wilcox Nuclear Energy, Inc. and their respective subsidiaries. Through this segment, we supply boilers fired with fossil fuels, such as coal, oil and natural gas, or renewable fuels such as biomass, municipal solid waste and concentrated solar energy. In addition, we supply commercial nuclear steam generators and components, environmental equipment and components, and related services to customers in different regions around the world. We design, engineer, manufacture, supply, construct and service large utility and industrial power generation systems, including boilers used to generate steam in electric power plants, pulp and paper making, chemical and process applications and other industrial uses.

Our Government Operations segment includes the business and operations of Babcock & Wilcox Nuclear Operations Group, Inc., Babcock & Wilcox Technical Services Group, Inc. and their respective subsidiaries. Through this segment, we manufacture nuclear components and provide various services to the U.S. Government, including uranium processing, environmental site restoration services, and management and operating services for various U.S. Government-owned facilities. These services are provided to the DOE, including the NNSA, the Office of Nuclear Energy, the Office of Science and the Office of Environmental Management.

Use of Estimates

We use estimates and assumptions to prepare our financial statements in conformity with GAAP. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts we report in our financial statements and accompanying notes. Our actual results could differ from these estimates. Variances could result in a material effect on our financial condition and results of operations in future periods.

Investments

Our investments, primarily government obligations and other highly liquid money market instruments, are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value, with the unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. We classify investments available for current operations in the balance sheet as current assets, while we classify investments held for long-term purposes as noncurrent assets. We adjust the amortized cost of debt securities for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity. That amortization is included in interest income. We include realized gains and losses on

F-9

THE BABCOCK & WILCOX OPERATIONS OF McDERMOTT INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

our investments in other income (expense). The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method. We include interest on securities in interest income.

Foreign Currency Translation

We translate assets and liabilities of our foreign operations, other than operations in highly inflationary economies, into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates, and we translate income statement items at average exchange rates for the periods presented. We record adjustments resulting from the translation of foreign currency financial statements as a component of other comprehensive loss. We report foreign currency transaction gains and losses in income. We have included in other income (expense) transaction losses of $(5.4) million, $(0.5) million and $(1.3) million for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Contracts and Revenue Recognition

We generally recognize contract revenues and related costs on a percentage-of-completion method for individual contracts or combinations of contracts based on work performed, man hours, or a cost-to-cost method, as applicable to the product or activity involved. Under this method, we recognize estimated contract revenue and resulting income based on costs incurred to date as a percentage of total estimated costs. Certain costs may be excluded from the cost-to-cost method of measuring progress, such as significant costs for materials and major third-party subcontractors, if it appears that such exclusion would result in a more meaningful measurement of actual contract progress and resulting periodic allocation of income. We include revenues and related costs so recorded, plus accumulated contract costs that exceed amounts invoiced to customers under the terms of the contracts, in contracts in progress. We include in advance billings on contracts billings that exceed accumulated contract costs and revenues and costs recognized under the percentage-of-completion method. Most long-term contracts contain provisions for progress payments. We expect to invoice customers for all unbilled revenues. We review contract price and cost estimates periodically as the work progresses and reflect adjustments proportionate to the percentage-of-completion in income in the period when those estimates are revised. For all contracts, if a current estimate of total contract costs indicates a loss on a contract, the projected loss is recognized in full when determined.

For contracts as to which we are unable to estimate the final profitability except to assure that no loss will ultimately be incurred, we recognize equal amounts of revenue and cost until the final results can be estimated more precisely. For these deferred profit recognition contracts, we recognize revenue and cost equally and only recognize gross margin when probable and reasonably estimable, which we generally determine to be when the contract is approximately 70% complete. We treat long-term construction contracts that contain such a level of risk and uncertainty that estimation of the final outcome is impractical, except to assure that no loss will be incurred, as deferred profit recognition contracts.

Our policy is to account for fixed-price contracts under the completed-contract method if we believe that we are unable to reasonably forecast cost to complete at start-up. Under the completed-contract method, income is recognized only when a contract is completed or substantially complete.

Variations from estimated contract performance could result in material adjustments to operating results for any fiscal quarter or year. We include claims for extra work or changes in scope of work to the extent of costs incurred in contract revenues when we believe collection is probable.

We are usually entitled to financial settlements relative to the individual circumstances of deferrals or cancellations of long-term contracts. We do not recognize those settlements or claims for additional compensation until we reach final settlements with our customers. In June 2006, B&W PGG was awarded separate contracts to supply eight supercritical, coal-fired boilers and selective catalytic reduction (“SCR”) systems as part of TXU

F-10

THE BABCOCK & WILCOX OPERATIONS OF McDERMOTT INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

Corp.’s (“TXU”) solid-fuel power generation program in Texas. TXU subsequently suspended activity on five of the eight boilers and SCR systems. The five suspended contracts were formally cancelled by execution of a termination and settlement agreement dated April 13, 2007. During the year ended December 31, 2007, B&W PGG received cash payments totaling $124 million from TXU, which completed the $243 million termination settlement obligation from TXU. See Note 6 regarding the performance guarantee provided by MII.

The following amounts represent retainages on contracts:

	December 31,
	2009		2008

Retainages expected to be collected within one year	$	94,561	$	96,686
Retainages expected to be collected after one year		16,919		31,007
Total Retainages	$	111,480	$	127,693

We have included in accounts receivable—trade retainages expected to be collected in 2010. Retainages expected to be collected after one year are included in other assets. Of the long-term retainages at December 31, 2009, we anticipate collecting $15.5 million in 2011, $1.2 million in 2012 and $0.2 million in 2013.

Comprehensive Loss

The components of accumulated other comprehensive loss included in parent equity (deficit) is as follows:

Unrecognized losses on benefit obligations		(572,169	)		(590,259	)
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss	$	(546,574	)	$	(592,998	)

Warranty Expense

We accrue estimated expense to satisfy contractual warranty requirements when we recognize the associated revenue on the related contracts. In addition, we make specific provisions where we expect the actual warranty costs to significantly exceed the accrued estimates. Such specific provisions could have a material effect on our combined financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

The following summarizes the changes in the carrying amount of accrued warranty:

We accrue for future decommissioning of our nuclear facilities that will permit the release of these facilities to unrestricted use at the end of each facility’s life, which is a requirement of our licenses from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the “NRC”). In accordance with the FASB Topic Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations, we record the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred. When we initially record such a liability, we capitalize a cost by increasing the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. Over time, the liability, which is included in environmental liabilities on our combined balance sheets, is accreted to its present value each period, and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the useful life of the related asset. Upon settlement of a liability, we will settle the obligation for its recorded amount or incur a gain or loss. This topic applies to environmental liabilities associated with assets that we currently operate and are obligated to remove from service. For environmental liabilities associated with assets that we no longer operate, we have accrued amounts based on the estimated costs of clean-up activities for which we are responsible, net of any cost-sharing arrangements. We adjust the estimated costs as further information develops or circumstances change. An exception to this accounting treatment relates to the work we perform at facilities for which the U.S. Government is obligated to pay all of the decommissioning costs.

Substantially all of our asset retirement obligations relate to the remediation of our nuclear analytical laboratory and the Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc. facilities. The following table reflects our asset retirement obligations:

Research and Development

Research and development activities are related to development and improvement of new and existing products and equipment and conceptual as well as engineering evaluation for translation into practical applications. We charge to cost of operations the costs of research and development unrelated to specific contracts as incurred. Research and development activities totaled $78.3 million, $56.2 million and $51.3 million in the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively, which include $25.1 million, $17.7 million and $16.5 million, respectively, related to amounts paid for by our customers. Substantially all of these costs are in our Power Generation Systems segment and include costs related to the development of carbon capture and sequestration technologies and our modular and scalable reactor, B&W mPower™. The net expenses recognized in the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 totaled approximately $53.2 million, $38.5 million and $34.8 million, respectively.

Inventories

We carry our inventories at the lower of cost or market. We determine cost principally on the first-in, first out basis, except for certain materials inventories of our Power Generation Systems segment, for which we use the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method. We determined the cost of approximately 17% of our total inventories using the LIFO method at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and our total LIFO reserve at December 31, 2009 and 2008 was approximately $6.6 million and $7.0 million, respectively. Inventories are summarized below:

Total Inventories	$	98,644	$	125,560

Property, Plant and Equipment

We carry our property, plant and equipment at depreciated cost, less any impairment provisions.

We depreciate our property, plant and equipment using the straight-line method over estimated economic useful lives of eight to 40 years for buildings and two to 28 years for machinery and equipment. Our depreciation expense was $62.6 million, $41.3 million and $38.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

We expense costs of maintenance, repairs and renewals that do not materially prolong the useful life of an asset as we incur them.

Capitalization of Interest Cost

We capitalize interest in accordance with the FASB Topic Interest. We incurred total interest of $27.4 million, $24.7 million and $38.6 million in the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively, of which we capitalized $2.8 million, $1.9 million and $0.5 million in the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Our cash equivalents are highly liquid investments, with maturities of three months or less when we purchase them, which we do not hold as part of our investment portfolio.

We record current cash and cash equivalents as restricted when we are unable to freely use such cash and cash equivalents for our general operating purposes.

At December 31, 2009, we had restricted cash and cash equivalents totaling $15.3 million, $7.4 million of which was held in restricted foreign accounts, $3.5 million of which was held as cash collateral for letters of credit, $4.0 million of which was held for future decommissioning of facilities, and $0.4 million of which was held to meet reinsurance reserve requirements of our captive insurance companies. It is possible that a portion of restricted cash at December 31, 2009 will not be released within the next 12 months.

Derivative Financial Instruments

Our worldwide operations give rise to exposure to market risks from changes in foreign exchange rates. We use derivative financial instruments to reduce the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates on our operating results. We use these instruments primarily to hedge our exposure associated with revenues or costs on our long-

F-15

THE BABCOCK & WILCOX OPERATIONS OF McDERMOTT INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

term contracts that are denominated in currencies other than our operating entities’ functional currencies. We do not hold or issue financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes.

We enter into derivative financial instruments primarily as hedges of certain firm purchase and sale commitments denominated in foreign currencies. We record these contracts at fair value on our combined balance sheets. Depending on the hedge designation at the inception of the contract, the related gains and losses on these contracts are either deferred in parent equity (deficit) (as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss) until the hedged item is recognized in earnings or offset against the change in fair value of the hedged firm commitment through earnings. Any ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value is immediately recognized in earnings. The gain or loss on a derivative financial instrument not designated as a hedging instrument is also immediately recognized in earnings. Gains and losses on derivative financial instruments that require immediate recognition are included as a component of other income (expense)—net in our combined statements of income.

Self-Insurance

We have certain wholly owned insurance subsidiaries that provide employer’s liability, general and automotive liability and workers’ compensation insurance and, from time to time, builder’s risk insurance (within certain limits) to our companies. We may also, in the future, have these insurance subsidiaries accept other risks that we cannot or do not wish to transfer to outside insurance companies. Included in other liabilities on our combined balance sheets are reserves for self-insurance totaling $56.8 million and $60.6 million at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Loss Contingencies

We estimate liabilities for loss contingencies when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss is reasonably estimable. We provide disclosure when there is a reasonable possibility that the ultimate loss will exceed the recorded provision or if such loss is not reasonably estimable. We are currently involved in some significant litigation, as discussed in Note 9. We have accrued our estimates of the probable losses associated with these matters. However, our losses are typically resolved over long periods of time and are often difficult to estimate due to various factors, including the possibility of multiple actions by third parties. Therefore, it is possible future earnings could be affected by changes in our estimates related to these matters.

Stock-Based Compensation

We expense stock-based compensation in accordance with FASB Topic Compensation—Stock Compensation. Under this topic, the fair value of equity-classified awards, such as restricted stock, performance shares and stock options, is determined on the date of grant and is not remeasured. Grant date fair values for restricted stock and performance shares are determined using the closing price of MII’s common stock on the date of grant. Grant date fair values for stock options are determined using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model (“Black-Scholes”). The determination of the fair value of a share-based payment award on the date of grant using an option-pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, such as the expected life of the award and stock price volatility. For liability-classified awards, such as cash-settled deferred stock units and performance units, fair values are determined at grant date using the closing price of MII’s common stock and are remeasured at the end of each reporting period through the date of settlement.

Under the provisions of this topic, we recognize expense based on the grant date fair value, net of an estimated forfeiture rate, for all share-based awards granted on a straight-line basis over the requisite service

F-16

THE BABCOCK & WILCOX OPERATIONS OF McDERMOTT INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

periods of the awards, which is generally equivalent to the vesting term. This topic requires compensation expense to be recognized, net of an estimate for forfeitures, such that compensation expense is recorded only for those awards expected to vest. We review the estimate for forfeitures periodically and record any adjustments deemed necessary for each reporting period. If our actual forfeiture rate is materially different from our estimate, the stock-based compensation expense could be significantly different from what we have recorded in the current period.

Additionally, this topic amended the FASB Topic Statement of Cash Flows to require excess tax benefits to be reported as a financing cash flow, rather than as a reduction of taxes paid. These excess tax benefits result from tax deductions in excess of the cumulative compensation expense recognized for options exercised and other equity-classified awards.

See Note 8 for a further discussion of stock-based compensation.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In June 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 168—The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162. SFAS No. 168 made the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification”) the single source of U.S. GAAP used by nongovernmental entities in preparation of financial statements, except for rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under authority of federal securities laws, which are the sources of authoritative accounting guidance for SEC registrants. The Codification is meant to simplify user access to all authoritative accounting guidance by reorganizing U.S. GAAP pronouncements into roughly 90 accounting topics within a consistent structure; its purpose is not to create new accounting and reporting guidance. The Codification supersedes all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards and was effective for us beginning July 1, 2009. Following SFAS No. 168, the FASB will not issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions, or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts; instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates. The FASB will not consider Accounting Standards Updates as authoritative in their own right; these updates will serve only to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance, and provide the bases for conclusions on the change(s) in the Codification. In the discussion that follows, references in “italics” relate to Codification Topics and Subtopics, and their descriptive titles, as appropriate.

In May 2009, the FASB issued the Topic Subsequent Events. This section of the Codification incorporates specific accounting and disclosure requirements for subsequent events into U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The adoption of these provisions did not have a material impact on our combined financial statements.

In April 2009, the FASB issued a revision to the Topic Business Combinations. This revision amends and clarifies the Topic Business Combinations to address subsequent measurement and accounting for, and disclosure of, assets and liabilities arising from contingencies in a business combination. On January 1, 2009, we adopted the provisions of this update. The adoption of these provisions did not have a material impact on our combined financial statements.

In April 2009, the FASB issued a revision to the Topic Financial Instruments. This revision requires disclosures about fair value of financial instruments in notes to interim financial statements as well as annual financial statements. The notes to our financial statements reflect this revision.

In April 2008, the FASB issued a revision to the Topic Intangibles—Goodwill and Other. This revision requires companies estimating the useful life of a recognized intangible asset to consider their historical

F-17

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

experience in renewing or extending similar arrangements or, in the absence of historical experience, to consider assumptions that market participants would use about renewals or extensions as adjusted for the entity-specific factors in this topic. On January 1, 2009, we adopted this revision. The adoption of these provisions did not have a material impact on our combined financial statements.

In March 2008, the FASB issued a revision to the Topic Derivatives and Hedging. This revision requires enhanced disclosures about derivative and hedging activities and is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. On January 1, 2009, we adopted this revision for our disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities. The notes to our combined financial statements reflect this revision.

In December 2007, the FASB issued a revision to the Topic Consolidation. This revision establishes accounting and reporting standards pertaining to ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent, the amount of net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest, changes in a parent’s ownership interest and the valuation of any retained noncontrolling equity investment when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. It also establishes disclosure requirements that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the noncontrolling owners. On January 1, 2009, we adopted this revision. We have presented noncontrolling interest as a separate component of parent equity as of December 31, 2009 and 2008.

In December 2007, the FASB issued a revision to the Topic Business Combinations. This revision broadens the guidance of this Topic, extending its applicability to all transactions and events in which one entity obtains control over one or more other businesses. It broadens the fair value measurements and recognition of assets acquired, liabilities assumed and interests transferred as a result of business combinations. It also provides disclosure requirements to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of business combinations. On January 1, 2009, we adopted the provisions of this revision. The adoption of these provisions did not have a material impact on our combined financial statements.

New Accounting Standards

In June 2009, the FASB issued a revision to the Topic Consolidation. This revision expands the scope of this topic and amends guidance for assessing and analyzing variable interest entities. This revision will be effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. We do not expect this revision to have a material impact on our combined financial statements.

percentages at December 31, 2009. These differences were primarily related to the timing of distribution of dividends and various adjustments under GAAP.

The provision for income taxes is based on the tax laws and rates in the countries in which our investees operate. There is no expected relationship between the provision for income taxes and income before provision for income taxes. The taxation regimes vary not only by their nominal rates, but also by the allowability of deductions, credits and other benefits. For some of our U.S. investees, U.S. income taxes are the responsibility of the respective owners.

Reconciliation of net income per combined income statement information to equity in income from investees per our combined statements of income is as follows:

NOTE 4—INCOME TAXES

We conduct business globally, and as a result, we or one or more of our subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in many state and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, we are subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world, including such major jurisdictions as Canada and the United States. With few exceptions, we are no longer subject to non-U.S. tax examinations for years prior to 2006.

The IRS has completed audits of the years 2001 through 2006 for the combined group that includes BWICO, and these years are awaiting review by the Joint Committee on Taxation. We anticipate review by the Joint Committee on Taxation of the group’s tax years ended 2001 through 2006 to be resolved within the next 12 months.

State income tax returns are generally subject to examination for a period of three to five years after filing the respective returns. With few exceptions, we do not have any state returns under examination for years prior to 2002.

Effective January 1, 2007, we adopted the provisions of FASB Topic Income Taxes regarding the treatment of uncertain tax positions. As a result of this adoption, we recognized a charge of approximately $13.0 million to our accumulated deficit component of parent equity at January 1, 2007. A reconciliation of unrecognized tax benefits for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 was as follows (in thousands):

	Year Ended December 31,
	2009			2008			2007
Balance at beginning of year	$	14,521		$	28,858		$	41,108
Increases based on tax positions taken in the current year		1,322			3,688			391
Increases based on tax positions taken in the prior years		216			353			2,922
Decreases based on tax positions taken in the prior years		(91	)		(4,525	)		(13,250	)
Decreases due to settlements with tax authorities		(4,126	)		(13,441	)		(2,313	)
Decrease due to lapse of applicable statute of limitations		—			(412	)		—
Balance at end of year	$	11,842		$	14,521		$	28,858

Approximately $10.6 million of the balance of unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2009 would reduce our effective tax rate if recognized. The remaining balance relates to positions for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility. Because of the impact of deferred tax accounting, other than interest and penalties, the disallowance of the shorter deductibility period would not affect the annual effective tax rate but would accelerate the payment of cash to the taxing authority to an earlier period.

During 2009, we attempted to settle several years of outstanding audits with the Commonwealth of Virginia by making payments under a special tax amnesty program. The payments approximated the unrecognized tax benefits, resulting in no adjustment to tax expense. We have not yet received formal notification that the audits are closed.

As part of the adoption of FASB Topic Income Taxes, we began to recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in our provision for income taxes. During the year ended December 31, 2009, we recorded additional accruals of $0.4 million and made payments of $3.2 million, resulting in a year-end liability of approximately $3.6 million for the payment of tax-related interest and penalties. At December 31, 2008 and 2007, we recorded liabilities of approximately $6 million and $11.6 million, respectively, for the payment of tax-related interest and penalties. The $5.2 million change during the year ended December 31, 2008 was attributable to the settlement of certain audits and the reassessment of related tax positions.

At December 31, 2009, we had a valuation allowance of $28.7 million for deferred tax assets, which we expect cannot be realized through carrybacks, future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences and our estimate of future taxable income. We believe that our remaining deferred tax assets are realizable through carrybacks, future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences and our estimate of future taxable income. Any changes to our estimated valuation allowance could be material to our combined financial statements.

We have foreign net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $13.8 million available to offset future taxable income in foreign jurisdictions. The foreign net operating losses have a valuation allowance of $1.4 million against the related deferred taxes. We have U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $6.9 million, which carry a $1.4 million valuation allowance. These net operating loss carryforwards are scheduled to expire in years 2010 to 2026. We have state net operating losses of approximately $1 billion available to offset future taxable income in various states. The state net operating loss carryforwards begin to expire in the year 2010. We are carrying a valuation allowance of $19.5 million against the deferred tax asset related to the state loss carryforwards.

We would be subject to withholding taxes if we were to distribute earnings from certain of our foreign subsidiaries. For the year ended December 31, 2009, the undistributed earnings of these subsidiaries is $239.0 million. Unrecognized deferred income tax liabilities, including withholding taxes, of approximately $15.5 million would be payable upon distribution of these earnings. We have provided $0.7 million of taxes on earnings we intend to remit. All other earnings are considered permanently reinvested.

NOTE 5—RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

We are a party to transactions with subsidiaries, divisions and controlled joint ventures of MII and other MII subsidiaries in the normal course of operations. These transactions include the following:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2009		2008

Our accounts payable to McDermott International, Inc. consist of items of a normal recurring nature, including, but not limited to, the items disclosed above. These balances are generally settled within 60 days of the invoice date.

At December 31, 2009, MII had an outstanding performance guarantee for a contract executed by B&W PGG with TXU. The total contract value of this project was approximately $138.5 million.

Our note receivable from an affiliate is a 2007 loan agreement between Babcock & Wilcox Canada, Ltd., a subsidiary of B&W PGG, as lender, and J. Ray McDermott Canada Holding, Ltd. (“JRMCHL”), as borrower, for up to 60 million Canadian Dollars. The actual amount funded to JRMCHL under this agreement was $45.2 million. Interest is set at the Canadian Prime Rate and is due quarterly. The loan agreement terminates on June 30, 2011, and the entire amount outstanding under the loan agreement, including accrued interest, is scheduled to become due and payable at that time. Either party may terminate the loan agreement by providing 30 days’ written notice to the other party, in which case the entire amount outstanding under the loan agreement, including accrued interest, will become due and payable at the end of that 30-day period. JRMCHL may repay the loan at any time, without penalty. During the year ended December 31, 2007, JRMCHL made a principal payment of $2.9 million to Babcock & Wilcox Canada, Ltd. No subsequent principal payments have been made. We expect this loan to be settled in connection with the proposed spin-off.

Our note payable to an affiliate relates to a 2006 loan agreement with McDermott Kft., Budapest, Zug branch, the registered branch of McDermott Group Financing Limited Liability Company, whereby we borrowed $355 million. The loan bears interest at a rate of 7.28% per annum at December 31, 2009 and is payable quarterly. The loan is scheduled to mature on December 21, 2011. Principal is due in full on the maturity date but may be paid in whole or in part in advance without penalty. During the year ended December 31, 2009, we had no borrowings or repayments under this facility. We expect this loan to be settled in connection with the proposed spin-off.

On September 17, 2009, we entered into a loan agreement with MII, whereby we can borrow up to $5.0 million in connection with the acquisition of Instrumentacion y Mantenimiento de Calderas, S.A. Interest is set at the Eurodollar deposit rate and is due quarterly. The loan agreement is scheduled to terminate on December 31, 2014, and the entire amount outstanding under the loan agreement, including the accrued interest, is scheduled to

Either party may terminate the loan agreement by providing 30 days’ written notice to the other party, in which case the entire amount outstanding under the loan agreement, including the accrued interest, will become due and payable at the end of that 30-day period. During the year ended December 31, 2009, we had $2.4 million in borrowings under this facility. We expect this loan to be settled in connection with the proposed spin-off.

Our short-term lines of credit represent borrowings by one of our subsidiaries. We have included this amount in notes payable and current maturities of long-term debt on our combined balance sheets. This facility is renewable annually and the interest rate associated with this line of credit was 5.3% per annum at December 31, 2009.

Maturities of long-term debt during the three years subsequent to December 31, 2009 are as follows: 2010, $3.4 million; 2011, $0.1 million; 2012, $4.2 million.

Power Generations Systems Credit Facility

On February 22, 2006, B&W PGG entered into a senior secured credit facility with a syndicate of lenders (the “B&W PGG Credit Facility”). As amended to date, this facility provides for borrowings and issuances of letters of credit in an aggregate amount of up to $400 million and matures on February 22, 2011. The proceeds of the B&W PGG Credit Facility are available for working capital needs and other similar corporate purposes of B&W PGG.

B&W PGG’s obligations under the B&W PGG Credit Facility are unconditionally guaranteed by all of our domestic subsidiaries included in B&W PGG and secured by liens on substantially all the assets of those subsidiaries, excluding cash and cash equivalents.

The B&W PGG Credit Facility only requires interest payments on a quarterly basis until maturity. Amounts outstanding under the B&W PGG Credit Facility may be prepaid at any time without penalty.

F-26

THE BABCOCK & WILCOX OPERATIONS OF McDERMOTT INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

Loans outstanding under the revolving credit subfacility bear interest at either the Eurodollar rate plus a margin ranging from 1.00% to 1.75% per year or the base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.75% per year. The applicable margin for revolving loans varies depending on credit ratings of the B&W PGG Credit Facility. B&W PGG is charged a commitment fee on the unused portion of the B&W PGG Credit Facility, and that fee varies between 0.25% and 0.375% per year depending on credit ratings of the B&W PGG Credit Facility. Additionally, B&W PGG is charged a letter of credit fee of between 1.00% and 1.75% per year with respect to the amount of each letter of credit issued under the B&W PGG Credit Facility. An additional 0.125% per year fee is charged on the amount of each letter of credit issued under the B&W PGG Credit Facility.

The B&W PGG Credit Facility contains customary financial covenants, including maintenance of a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio within B&W PGG and covenants that, among other things, restrict the ability of B&W PGG to incur debt, create liens, make investments and acquisitions, sell assets, pay dividends, prepay subordinated debt, merge with other entities, engage in transactions with affiliates and make capital expenditures. The capital expenditure annual limits allow us to roll forward amounts not spent under the limits from one year to the next. However, the amount rolled forward must be spent entirely in the next year and may not be rolled forward again to future years. At December 31, 2009, B&W PGG was in compliance with all of the covenants set forth in the B&W PGG Credit Facility.

As of December 31, 2009, there were no outstanding borrowings, but letters of credit issued under the B&W PGG Credit Facility totaled $199.2 million. At December 31, 2009, there was $200.8 million available for borrowings or to meet letter of credit requirements under the B&W PGG Credit Facility. If there had been borrowings under this facility, the applicable interest rate at December 31, 2009 would have been 3.25% per year.

Bank Guarantees (Foreign Operations)

Certain foreign subsidiaries of B&W PGG had credit arrangements with various commercial banks for the issuance of bank guarantees. The aggregate value of all such bank guarantees as of December 31, 2009 was $16.5 million.

Surety Bonds

In June 2008, MII, B&W PGG and BHI jointly executed a general agreement of indemnity in favor of a surety underwriter relating to surety bonds that underwriter issued in support of the contracting activity of our Power Generation Systems segment. As of December 31, 2009, surety bonds issued under this arrangement totaled approximately $98.5 million. Any claim successfully asserted against the surety by one or more of the bond obligees would likely be recoverable from any of MII, B&W PGG and BHI under the indemnity agreement.

Government Operations Credit Facility

On December 9, 2003, BWXT entered into a senior unsecured credit facility with a syndicate of lenders (the “BWXT Credit Facility”), which is currently scheduled to mature March 18, 2010. This facility provides for borrowings and issuances of letters of credit in an aggregate amount of up to $135 million. The proceeds of the BWXT Credit Facility are available for working capital needs and other general corporate purposes of BWXT. We believe we will be successful in obtaining an extension on this facility until we enter into a new, replacement credit facility. If we are not able to obtain an extension, we would consider other alternatives, which could include cash collateralizing letters of credit outstanding under this facility.

The BWXT Credit Facility only requires interest payments on a quarterly basis until maturity. Amounts outstanding under the BWXT Credit Facility may be prepaid at any time without penalty.

F-27

THE BABCOCK & WILCOX OPERATIONS OF McDERMOTT INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

Loans outstanding under the BWXT Credit Facility bear interest at either the Eurodollar rate plus a margin ranging from 1.25% to 1.75% per year or the base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.25% and 0.75% per year. The applicable margin for revolving loans varies depending on the leverage ratio of BWXT as of the last day of the preceding fiscal quarter. BWXT is charged an annual commitment fee of 0.375%, which is payable quarterly. Additionally, BWXT is charged a letter of credit fee of between 1.25% and 1.75% per year with respect to the amount of each letter of credit issued, depending on the leverage ratio of BWXT as of the last day of the preceding fiscal quarter. An additional 0.125% per year fee is charged on the amount of each letter of credit issued.

The BWXT Credit Facility contains customary financial and nonfinancial covenants and reporting requirements. The financial covenants require maintenance of a maximum leverage ratio, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a maximum debt to capitalization ratio within BWXT. At December 31, 2009, BWXT was in compliance with all of the covenants set forth in the BWXT Credit Facility.

At December 31, 2009, there were no borrowings outstanding, but letters of credit issued under the BWXT Credit Facility totaled $59.0 million. At December 31, 2009, there was $76.0 million available for borrowings or to meet letter of credit requirements under the BWXT Credit Facility. If there had been borrowings under this facility, the applicable interest rate at December 31, 2009 would have been 3.50% per year.

Letters of Credit (Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc.)

At December 31, 2009, NFS, had approximately $3.7 million in letters of credit issued by various commercial banks on its behalf. The obligations to the commercial banks issuing such letters of credit are secured by cash, short-term certificates of deposit and certain real and intangible assets.

NOTE 7—PENSION PLANS AND POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS

We have historically provided defined benefit retirement benefits, primarily through noncontributory pension plans, for most of our regular employees. As of 2006, our retirement plans for U.S.-based employees were closed to new entrants for our corporate employees and were closed to new salaried plan entrants for salaried employees of BWXT and B&W PGG and their respective subsidiaries. Effective December 31, 2007, the salaried retirement plan acquired with MMC in May 2007 was closed to new entrants and benefit accruals were frozen for existing participants who were not vested as of December 31, 2007. Effective October 31, 2008, the salaried and hourly retirement plans acquired with MMC were merged into the retirement plan for employees of BWXT. Effective December 31, 2008, we acquired the retirement plans and postretirement benefit plans of our subsidiary NFS. Effective December 31, 2009, the salaried retirement plan acquired with NFS was closed to new entrants and benefit accruals were frozen for existing participants who were not vested as of December 31, 2009.

We do not provide retirement benefits to certain non-resident alien employees of foreign subsidiaries. Retirement benefits for salaried employees who accrue benefits in a defined benefit plan are based on final average compensation and years of service, while benefits for hourly paid employees are based on a flat benefit rate and years of service. Our funding policy is to fund the plans as recommended by the respective plan actuaries and in accordance with the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or other applicable law. The Pension Protection Act of 2006 replaces the current funding provisions for single-employer defined benefit plans. Funding provisions under the Pension Protection Act accelerate funding requirements to ensure full funding of benefits accrued. The Pension Protection Act became effective in 2008 and had no impact on our combined financial condition or cash flows for 2008.

Effective December 31, 2009, we adopted the disclosure provisions of FASB Topic 715, Compensation—Retirement Benefits. In accordance with the provisions of this topic, we have disclosed additional information about our assets set aside to fund our pension and postretirement benefit obligations.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

Effective December 31, 2007, we adopted the measurement date provision of SFAS No. 158, Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, for our plans that were not on a calendar year measurement. In accordance with this provision, we recorded a reduction in retained earnings of $1.7 million, net of a related tax benefit of $0.8 million.

We make available other benefits which include postretirement health care and life insurance benefits to certain salaried and union retirees based on their union contracts. Certain subsidiaries provide these benefits to unionized and salaried future retirees.

Assumptions

	Pension Benefits				Other Benefits
	2009		2008		2009		2008
Weighted average assumptions used to determine net periodic benefit obligations at December 31:
Discount rate	6.03	%	6.32	%	5.57	%	6.15	%
Rate of compensation increase	3.77	%	3.96	%	—		—
Weighted average assumptions used to determine net periodic benefit cost for the years ended December 31:
Discount rate	6.32	%	6.21	%	6.11	%	5.74	%
Expected return on plan assets	8.19	%	8.32	%	—		—
Rate of compensation increase	4.20	%	3.94	%	—		—

The expected rate of return on plan assets assumption is based on the long-term expected returns for the investment mix of assets currently in the portfolio. In setting this rate, we use a building-block approach. Historic real return trends for the various asset classes in the plan’s portfolio are combined with anticipated future market conditions to estimate the real rate of return for each class. These rates are then adjusted for anticipated future inflation to determine estimated nominal rates of return for each class. The expected rate of return on plan assets is determined to be the weighted average of the nominal returns based on the weightings of the classes within the total asset portfolio. We have been using an expected return on plan assets assumption of 8.5% for the majority of our existing pension plan assets which is consistent with the long-term asset returns of the portfolio.

Our existing other benefit plans are unfunded, with the exception of the NFS postretirement benefit plans. These plans provide health benefits to certain salaried and hourly employees, as well as retired employees, of NFS. Approximately 84% of total assets for these postretirement benefit plans are contributed into a Voluntary Employees’ Beneficiary Association (“VEBA”) trust.

(1) Assumed health-care cost trend rates and years that the ultimate trends are reached vary among our postretirement benefit arrangements.

Assumed health-care cost trend rates have a significant effect on the amounts we report for our health-care plan. A one-percentage-point change in our assumed health-care cost trend rates would have the following effects:

Investment Goals

General

The overall investment strategy of the pension trusts is to achieve long-term growth of principal, while avoiding excessive risk and to minimize the probability of loss of principal over the long term. The specific investment goals that have been set for the pension trusts in the aggregate are (1) to ensure that plan liabilities are met when due and (2) to achieve an investment return on trust assets consistent with a reasonable level of risk.

Allocations to each asset class for both domestic and foreign plans are reviewed periodically and rebalanced, if appropriate, to assure the continued relevance of the goals, objectives and strategies. The pension trusts for both our domestic and foreign plans employ a professional investment advisor and a number of professional investment managers whose individual benchmarks are, in the aggregate, consistent with the plan’s overall investment objectives. The goals of each investment manager are (1) to meet (in the case of passive accounts) or exceed (for actively managed accounts) the benchmark selected and agreed upon by the manager and the trust and (2) to display an overall level of risk in its portfolio that is consistent with the risk associated with the agreed upon benchmark.

The investment performance of total portfolios, as well as asset class components, is periodically measured against commonly accepted benchmarks, including the individual investment manager benchmarks. In evaluating investment manager performance, consideration is also given to personnel, strategy, research capabilities, organizational and business matters, adherence to discipline and other qualitative factors that may impact the ability to achieve desired investment results.

Domestic Plans

We sponsor the following domestic defined benefit plans:

• Retirement Plan for Employees of McDermott Incorporated and Participating Subsidiary and Affiliated Companies;

• Retirement Plan for Employees of Babcock & Wilcox Commercial Operations;

• Retirement Plan for Employees of Babcock & Wilcox Government Operations; and

• Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc. Retirement Plan for Salaried Employees and Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc. Retirement Plan for Hourly Employees acquired with NFS (the “NFS Plans”).

With the exception of the NFS Plans, the assets of the domestic pension plans were commingled for investment purposes and held by the Trustee, The Bank of New York Mellon, in the McDermott Incorporated Master Trust (the “Master Trust”) through December 31, 2009. Effective January 1, 2010, the NFS Plans have been merged into the Master Trust. For the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, the investment return (loss) on domestic plan assets of the Master Trust (before deductions for management fees) was approximately 9.3% and (19.8)%, respectively. These percentages exclude the NFS Plans.

Balance at end of period	$	456,445

Our pension plan assets are included in a master trust. The master trust invests in certain entities that do not have a quoted market price but calculate net asset value per share or its equivalent. We review these net asset values to determine if any adjustments are required. Our review considers available market data, relevant index returns, preliminary estimates from investees, directional guidance from investees and other data obtained through research, consultation with third-party advisors and direct inquiry to our investees. Based on these factors and any other relevant information we are able to obtain through consultation with third-party advisors, we estimate the value of each investment, including all level 3 investments. If using such estimated values rather than the latest investee net asset values results in a material reduction in the total value of the trust assets, we adjust the reported net asset values to the revised estimated values. For our purposes, a material reduction is 5% or more.

The expected employer contributions to trusts for 2010 are included in current liabilities at December 31, 2009.

Defined Contribution Plans

We participate in the McDermott International, Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP Plan”), which is a defined contribution plan. We recorded income (expense) related to the SERP Plan of approximately $0.8 million, $(1.0) million and $0.9 million in the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

We also have provided benefits under the Thrift Plan for Employees of McDermott Incorporated and Participating Subsidiary and Affiliated Companies (“Thrift Plan”). The Thrift Plan generally provides for matching employer contributions of 50% of participants’ contributions up to 6 percent of compensation. These matching employer contributions are typically made in shares of MII common stock. In lieu of benefit accruals under the respective retirement plans, the Thrift Plan also provides for service-based contributions to some of our employees. Amounts charged to expense for employer contributions under the Thrift Plan totaled $17.6 million, $15.3 million and $12.5 million in the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Multiemployer Plans

One of our subsidiaries contributes to various multiemployer plans. The plans generally provide defined benefits to substantially all unionized workers in this subsidiary. Amounts charged to pension cost and contributed to the plans were $20.6 million, $30.4 million and $32.6 million in the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

NOTE 8—STOCK PLANS

At December 31, 2009, certain of our officers and employees participated in benefit plans of MII, which involve the issuance of MII common stock. Where required, disclosures have been adjusted for MII’s stock splits effected in the form of a stock dividend in September 2007 and May 2006.

2009 McDermott International, Inc. Long-Term Incentive Plan

In May 2009, MII’s shareholders approved the 2009 McDermott International, Inc. Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2009 LTIP”). Executive officers, key employees and consultants are eligible to participate in the plan.

F-36

THE BABCOCK & WILCOX OPERATIONS OF McDERMOTT INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

The Compensation Committee of MII’s Board of Directors selects the participants for the plan. The plan provides for a number of forms of stock-based compensation, including incentive and non-qualified stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance shares and performance units, subject to satisfaction of specific performance goals. Shares approved under MII’s 2001 Directors and Officers Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2001 LTIP”) that were not awarded as of the date of approval of the 2009 LTIP, or shares that are subject to awards that are cancelled, terminated, forfeited, expired or settled in cash in lieu of shares, are available for issuance under the 2009 LTIP. Options to purchase shares are granted at not less than 100% of the fair market value (average of the high and low trading price) on the date of grant, become exercisable at such time or times as determined when granted and expire not more than seven years after the date of grant.

2001 Directors and Officers Long-Term Incentive Plan

In May 2009, MII’s shareholders approved the 2009 LTIP. As a result, no further awards will be issued under the 2001 LTIP. Executive officers, key employees and consultants were eligible to participate in the 2001 LTIP. The Compensation Committee of MII’s Board of Directors selected the participants for the plan. The plan provided for a number of forms of stock-based compensation, including nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, deferred stock units, performance shares and performance units, subject to satisfaction of specific performance goals. Options to purchase shares were granted at not less than 100% of the fair market value (average of the high and low trading price) on the date of grant, became exercisable at such time or times as determined when granted and expire not more than seven years after the date of the grant. Options granted prior to May 2009 expire not more than ten years after the date of the grant. Shares of common stock available to be awarded under the 2001 LTIP are available under the terms of the 2009 LTIP and have been included in the amount available for grant discussed above.

In the event of a change in control of MII, all of these stock-based compensation programs have provisions that may cause restrictions to lapse and accelerate the exercisability of outstanding options.

NOTE 9—COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Investigations and Proceedings

On January 29, 2010, Michelle McMunn, Cara D. Steele and Yvonne Sue Robinson filed suit against B&W PGG, Babcock & Wilcox Technical Services Group, Inc., formerly known as B&W Nuclear Environmental Services, Inc. (together with B&W PGG, the “B&W Parties”) and Atlantic Richfield Company (“ARCO”) in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania (the “McMunn Litigation”). The plaintiffs in the McMunn Litigation allege, among other things, that they suffered personal injuries and property damage as a result of alleged radioactive and non-radioactive releases relating to the operation, remediation and/or decommissioning of two former nuclear fuel processing facilities located in Apollo and Parks Township, Pennsylvania. Those facilities previously were owned by Nuclear Materials and Equipment Company, a former subsidiary of ARCO (“NUMEC”) which was acquired by B&W PGG. The plaintiffs in the McMunn Litigation seek compensatory and punitive damages.

At the time of ARCO’s sale of NUMEC to B&W PGG, B&W PGG received an indemnity and hold harmless agreement from ARCO from claims or liabilities arising as a result of pre-closing NUMEC or ARCO actions.

We intend to vigorously defend this matter, and believe that in the event of liability, if any, the claims alleged in the McMunn Litigation will be resolved within the limits of coverage of our insurance policies and/or the ARCO indemnity.

B&W PGG settled approximately 245 personal injury and wrongful death claims, as well as approximately 125 property damage claims, alleging injury and damage as a result of alleged releases relating to these two facilities. The aggregate settlement amount for these claims was $52.5 million, which was paid during 2009, all of which had been previously accrued. In connection with that settlement, the B&W Parties are pursuing recovery in the matter of The Babcock & Wilcox Company et al. v. American Nuclear Insurers et al. (the “ANI Litigation”) from their insurer, American Nuclear Insurers and Mutual Atomic Energy Liability Underwriters, of the amounts paid in settlement of that prior action. The ANI Litigation is pending before the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. No trial date has been set in the matter.

An action entitled Iroquois Falls Power Corp. v. Jacobs Canada Inc., et al., was filed in the Superior Court of Justice, in Ontario, Canada, on June 1, 2005. Iroquois Falls Power Corp. (“Iroquois”) seeks damages of approximately $14 million (Canadian) as a result of an alleged breach by one of our former subsidiaries in connection with the supply and installation of heat recovery steam generators. MI, which provided a guarantee to certain obligations of the former subsidiary, and two bonding companies with whom MII entered into an indemnity arrangement, were also named as defendants. In March 2007, the Superior Court granted summary judgment in favor of all defendants and dismissed all claims of Iroquois, which appealed the ruling. Subsequently, the Court of Appeals for Ontario upheld the summary judgment, but sent the case back to the Superior Court of Justice to allow Iroquois an opportunity to amend its complaint to assert new claims. The Superior Court of Justice, however, denied Iroquois’ request to amend its complaint and assert new claims against the defendants based on a breach of contractual warranty. Iroquois appealed the Superior Court’s decision

and, in June 2009, the Court of Appeals for Ontario reversed the decision and sent the case back to the Superior Court for Iroquois to file an amended complaint on those new claims. In January 2010, our notice to appeal the Court of Appeals’ decision was dismissed by the Supreme Court.

Warranty Claim

One of our Canadian subsidiaries has received notice of a warranty claim on one of its projects on a contract executed in 1998. This situation relates to technical issues concerning components associated with nuclear steam generators. Data collection and analysis can only be performed at specific time periods when the power plant is scheduled to be off-line for maintenance. We also received a notice from the customer during October 2008, and, during November 2008, we responded to the notice by disagreeing with the matters stated in the claim and disputing the claim. This project included a limited-term performance bond totaling approximately $140 million for which we entered into an indemnity arrangement with the surety underwriters. It is possible that our subsidiary may incur warranty costs in excess of amounts provided for as of December 31, 2009. It is also possible that a claim could be initiated by our subsidiary’s customer against the surety underwriter should certain events occur. If such a claim were successful, the surety could seek to recover from our subsidiary the costs incurred in satisfying the customer claim. If the surety seeks recovery from our subsidiary, we believe that our subsidiary would have adequate liquidity to satisfy its obligations. However, the ultimate resolution of this possible claim is uncertain, and an adverse outcome could have a material adverse impact on our combined financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Suspended Operations

In December 2009, our subsidiary Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc., which we acquired in December 2008, implemented a suspension of some operations at its Erwin, Tennessee manufacturing facility while implementing organizational, facility and management changes to enhance safety controls and processes. We suspended the operations in consultation with the NRC following the occurrence of two separate incidents that we reported to the NRC in October and November 2009. The October 2009 incident involved the generation of excessive heat and a hazardous gas at a specialized cleaning station. The incident was caused by the processing of a small amount of uranium-aluminum material in nitric acid. This incident resulted in some damage to piping, but did not result in any injuries to personnel or offsite releases of chemical or radioactive material. The November 2009 incident involved a fire in a glovebox enclosure. The incident was caused by a reaction between fluorine gas in a cylinder of uranium and the fiberglass backing of the teflon lining of a vent hose attached to the cylinder within the glovebox enclosure. This incident resulted in damage to a hose and a faceplate within the glove box enclosure, but did not result in any injuries to personnel or offsite releases of chemical or radioactive material. Inspections conducted separately by the NRC, our existing nuclear liability underwriter and us revealed specific modifications necessary to improve Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc.’s overall safety performance. Although the NRC did not issue any directive or order to us to suspend these operations, we believe the NRC likely would have done so had we not voluntarily suspended the operations. Although we were already in the process of implementing safety, cultural and procedural improvements at NFS, we have refined and accelerated those changes and have developed other specific enhancements in consultation with the NRC, as confirmed in the NRC’s January 7, 2010 confirmatory action letter to Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc.

The suspended operations include production operations, the commercial development line and the highly enriched uranium down-blending facility. There can be no assurance that we will not have to suspend our operations in the future to implement additional changes to enhance our safety controls and processes in order to comply with applicable laws and regulations.

Additionally, due to the nature of our business, we are, from time to time, involved in routine litigation or subject to disputes or claims related to our business activities, including, among other things:

• performance- or warranty-related matters under our customer and supplier contracts and other business arrangements; and

• workers’ compensation claims, premises liability claims and other claims.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

Based upon our prior experience, we do not expect that any of these other litigation proceedings, disputes and claims will have a material adverse effect on our combined financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Environmental Matters

We have been identified as a potentially responsible party at various cleanup sites under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, as amended (“CERCLA”). CERCLA and other environmental laws can impose liability for the entire cost of cleanup on any of the potentially responsible parties, regardless of fault or the lawfulness of the original conduct. Generally, however, where there are multiple responsible parties, a final allocation of costs is made based on the amount and type of wastes disposed of by each party and the number of financially viable parties, although this may not be the case with respect to any particular site. We have not been determined to be a major contributor of wastes to any of these sites. On the basis of our relative contribution of waste to each site, we expect our share of the ultimate liability for the various sites will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in any given year.

The Department of Environmental Protection of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (“PADEP”) advised us in March 1994 that it would seek monetary sanctions and remedial and monitoring relief related to the Parks Facilities. The relief sought is related to potential groundwater contamination resulting from previous operations at the facilities. These facilities are currently owned by a subsidiary in our Government Operations segment. PADEP has advised us that it does not intend to assess any monetary sanctions, provided our Government Operations segment continues its remediation program for the Parks Facilities. Whether additional nonradiation contamination remediation will be required at the Parks Facility remains unclear. Results from sampling completed by our Government Operations segment have indicated that such remediation may not be necessary. Our Government Operations segment continues to evaluate closure of the groundwater issues pursuant to applicable Pennsylvania law.

We perform significant amounts of work for the U.S. Government under both prime contracts and subcontracts and operate certain facilities that are licensed to possess and process special nuclear materials. As a result of these activities, we are subject to continuing reviews by governmental agencies, including the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the NRC.

The NRC’s decommissioning regulations require our Government Operations segment to provide financial assurance that it will be able to pay the expected cost of decommissioning each of its facilities at the end of its service life. We will continue to provide financial assurance aggregating $33.7 million during the year ending December 31, 2010 with existing letters of credit for the ultimate decommissioning of all of these licensed facilities, except two. These two facilities, which represent the largest portion of our eventual decommissioning costs, have provisions in their government contracts pursuant to which substantially all of our decommissioning costs and financial assurance obligations are covered by the U.S. Department of Energy, including the costs to complete the decommissioning projects underway at the facility in Erwin, Tennessee.

At December 31, 2009 and 2008, we had total environmental reserves (including provisions for the facilities discussed above) of $50.3 million and $38.0 million, respectively. Of our total environmental reserves at December 31, 2009 and 2008, $2.5 million and $5.0 million, respectively, were included in current liabilities. Inherent in the estimates of those reserves and recoveries are our expectations regarding the levels of contamination, decommissioning costs and recoverability from other parties, which may vary significantly as decommissioning activities progress. Accordingly, changes in estimates could result in material adjustments to our operating results, and the ultimate loss may differ materially from the amounts that we have provided for in our combined financial statements.

Total rental expense for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 was $9.8 million, $9.2 million and $8.9 million respectively. These expense amounts include contingent rentals and are net of sublease income, neither of which is material.

Surety Bonds

In June 2008, MII, B&W PGG and BHI jointly executed a general agreement of indemnity in favor of a surety underwriter relating to surety bonds that underwriter issued in support of B&W PGG’s contracting activity. As of December 31, 2009, bonds issued under this arrangement totaled approximately $98.5 million. Any claim successfully asserted against the surety by one or more of the bond obligees would likely be recoverable from MII, B&W PGG and BHI under the indemnity agreement.

Proposed Unfavorable Tax Adjustments

We were advised in 2006 by the IRS of proposed unfavorable tax adjustments related to the 2001 through 2003 tax years. We reviewed the IRS positions and disagreed with certain proposed adjustments. Accordingly, we filed a protest with the IRS regarding the resolution of these issues, and the process has proceeded through an appeals hearing with an IRS appellate conferee. We have provided for any amounts that we believe will ultimately be payable for these proposed adjustments. However, the ultimate resolution of these proposed adjustments are uncertain, and an adverse outcome could have a material adverse impact on our combined financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

We perform significant amounts of work for the U.S. Government under both prime contracts and subcontracts. As a result, various aspects of our operations are subject to continuing reviews by governmental agencies.

We maintain liability and property insurance against such risk and in such amounts as we consider adequate. However, certain risks are either not insurable or insurance is available only at rates that we consider uneconomical.

NOTE 10—FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

Our primary customers are the U.S. Government and companies in the electric power generation industry (including several government-owned utilities and independent power producers). These concentrations of customers may impact our overall exposure to credit risk, either positively or negatively, in that our customers may be similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions. In the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, the U.S. Government accounted for approximately 33% and 22%, respectively, of our total revenues.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

We and some of our customers operate worldwide and are therefore exposed to risks associated with the economic and political forces of various countries and geographic areas. Approximately 16% of our trade receivables at December 31, 2009 are due from foreign customers. See Note 14 for additional information about our foreign operations. We generally do not obtain any collateral for our receivables.

We believe that our provision for possible losses on uncollectible accounts receivable is adequate for our credit loss exposure. At December 31, 2009 and 2008, the allowance for possible losses that we deducted from accounts receivable—trade on the accompanying balance sheet was $3.3 million and $2.7 million, respectively.

NOTE 12—DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Our worldwide operations give rise to exposure to market risks from changes in foreign exchange rates. We use derivative financial instruments (primarily foreign currency forward-exchange contracts) to reduce the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates on our operating results. We use these instruments primarily to hedge our exposure associated with revenues or costs on our long-term contracts and other cash flow exposures that are denominated in currencies other than our operating entities’ functional currencies. We do not hold or issue financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes.

We enter into derivative financial instruments primarily as hedges of certain firm purchase and sale commitments denominated in foreign currencies. We record these contracts at fair value on our combined balance sheets. Depending on the hedge designation at the inception of the contract, the related gains and losses on these contracts are either deferred in parent equity (deficit) as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, until the hedged item is recognized in earnings, or offset against the change in fair value of the hedged firm commitment through earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value and any portion excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are immediately recognized in earnings. The gain or loss on a derivative instrument not designated as a hedging instrument is also immediately recognized in earnings. Gains and losses on derivative financial instruments that require immediate recognition are included as a component of other income (expense) – net in our combined statements of income.

We have designated all of our forward contracts as cash flow hedges. The hedged risk is the risk of changes in functional-currency-equivalent cash flows attributable to changes in spot exchange rates of firm commitments related to long-term contracts. We exclude from our assessment of effectiveness the portion of the fair value of the forward contracts attributable to the difference between spot exchange rates and forward exchange rates. Ineffective portions of our forward contracts are recorded in other income (expense) – net on our combined statements of income. At December 31, 2009, we had deferred approximately $5.8 million of net losses on these derivative financial instruments in accumulated other comprehensive loss. We expect to recognize approximately $3.5 million of this amount in the next 12 months.

At December 31, 2009, all of our derivative financial instruments consisted of foreign currency forward-exchange contracts, and foreign currency options. The notional value of our forward contracts totaled $120.4 million at December 31, 2009, with maturities extending to December 2011. These instruments consist primarily of contracts to purchase or sell Euros or Canadian Dollars. The fair value of these contracts totaled ($1.8) million, all of which are Level 2 in nature (See Note 13). The fair value of our foreign currency option contracts totaled $4.7 million at December 31, 2009, and is included in other current assets on our combined balance sheets. We are exposed to credit-related losses in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to derivative financial instruments. However, when possible, we enter into International Swaps and Derivative Association, Inc. agreements with our hedge counterparties to mitigate this risk. We also attempt to mitigate this risk by using major financial institutions with high credit ratings and limit our exposure to hedge counterparties based on their credit ratings. The counterparties to all of our derivative financial instruments are financial institutions included in our credit facilities. Our hedge counterparties have the benefit of the same collateral arrangements and covenants as described under these facilities.

NOTE 13—FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

As discussed in Note 1, we adopted FASB Topic, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure, January 1, 2008 for fair value measurement of financial instruments and recurring fair value measurements of nonfinancial assets and liabilities. This topic defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

This topic defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. This topic also sets forth the disclosure requirements regarding fair value and establishes a hierarchy for valuation inputs that emphasizes the use of observable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value hierarchy established by this topic is broken down as follows:

• Level 1—inputs are based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.

F-47

THE BABCOCK & WILCOX OPERATIONS OF McDERMOTT INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

• Level 2—inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for similar or identical instruments in inactive markets and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets and liabilities.

• Level 3—inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques that include option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar valuation techniques.

The following sections describe the valuation methodologies we use to measure the fair values of our available-for-sale securities and derivatives.

Derivatives

Level 2 derivative assets and liabilities primarily include over-the-counter forwards. These currently consist of foreign exchange rate derivatives. Where applicable, the value of these derivative assets and liabilities is computed by discounting the projected future cash flow amounts to present value using market-based observable inputs, including foreign exchange forward and spot rates, interest rates and counterparty performance risk adjustments.

At December 31, 2009, we had forward contracts outstanding to purchase or sell foreign currencies, primarily Euros and Canadian Dollars, with a total notional value of $120.4 million and a total fair value of $(1.8) million. In addition, we had foreign currency options outstanding at December 31, 2009 with a total fair value of $4.7 million.

Available-for-Sale Securities

Investments other than derivatives primarily include U.S. Government and agency securities, money market funds, mortgage-backed securities, corporate notes and bonds and certificates of deposit.

In general, and where applicable, we use a pricing service that principally uses a composite of observable prices and quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities to determine fair value. This pricing methodology applies to our Level 2 investments.

Other Financial Instruments

We used the following methods and assumptions in estimating our fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amounts that we have reported in the accompanying combined balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents approximate their fair values.

Investments: We estimate the fair values of investments based on quoted market prices. For investments for which there are no quoted market prices, we derive fair values from available yield curves for investments of similar quality and terms.

Long- and short-term debt: We base the fair values of debt instruments on quoted market prices. Where quoted prices are not available, we base the fair values on the present value of future cash flows discounted at estimated borrowing rates for similar debt instruments or on estimated prices based on current yields for debt issues of similar quality and terms.

NOTE 14—SEGMENT REPORTING

Our reportable segments are Power Generation Systems and Government Operations, as described in Note 1. The operations of our segments are managed separately and each has unique technology, services and customer class.

We account for intersegment sales at prices that we generally establish by reference to similar transactions with unaffiliated customers. Reportable segments are measured based on operating income exclusive of general corporate expenses, contract and insurance claims provisions, legal expenses and gains (losses) on sales of corporate assets. Other reconciling items to income before provision for income taxes are interest income, interest expense, minority interest and other income (expense)—net.

NOTES TO CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company, Basis of Presentation and Principles of Combination

The Babcock & Wilcox Operations of McDermott International, Inc. (the “Company”) represent a combined reporting entity comprised of the assets and liabilities used in managing and operating the Power Generation Systems and Government Operations segments of McDermott International, Inc. (“MII”) in addition to two captive insurance companies which will be combined and contributed to The Babcock & Wilcox Company (“B&W”) in conjunction with the planned spin-off of B&W by MII. On December 7, 2009, MII announced a plan to separate B&W from MII through a spin-off transaction that is intended to be tax-free to MII.

The accompanying condensed combined financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We have presented our condensed combined financial statements in U.S. Dollars in accordance with the interim reporting requirements of Form 10 and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. We have included all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation. Financial information and disclosures normally included in our financial statements prepared annually in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. Readers of these financial statements should, therefore, refer to the combined financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 included in this information statement. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the condensed combined financial statements. We use the equity method to account for investments in entities that we do not control, but over which we have significant influence. We generally refer to these entities as “joint ventures.” We present the notes to our condensed combined financial statements on the basis of continuing operations, unless otherwise stated.

The combined results of operations, financial position and cash flows reflected in the accompanying condensed combined financial statements may not be indicative of the future performance of the combined businesses and do not necessarily reflect what its combined results of operations, financial position and cash flows would have been had the combined businesses operated as an independent public company during the periods presented, including changes in its operations and capitalization as a result of the separation and distribution from MII.

Certain corporate and general and administrative expenses, including those related to executive management, tax, accounting, legal and treasury services, and certain employee benefits, have been allocated based on a level of effort calculation. Our management believes such allocations are reasonable. However, the associated expenses reflected in the accompanying combined statements of income may not be indicative of the actual expenses that would have been incurred had the combined businesses been operating as an independent public company for the periods presented. Following the separation and distribution from MII, B&W will perform these functions using internal resources or services provided by third parties, certain of which may be provided by MII during a transitional period pursuant to a transition services agreement.

In presenting the condensed combined financial statements, our management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and related disclosures. Estimates, by their nature, are based on judgment and available information. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

As used in these footnote disclosures, the following terms have the meanings set forth below:

• MII (or McDermott) means McDermott International, Inc., a Panamanian corporation;

• BHI means Babcock & Wilcox Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation;

• MI means McDermott Incorporated, a Delaware corporation and a subsidiary of BHI, and its consolidated subsidiaries;

F-61

THE BABCOCK & WILCOX OPERATIONS OF McDERMOTT INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)—(Continued)

• BWICO means Babcock & Wilcox Investment Company, a Delaware corporation and a subsidiary of MI, and its consolidated subsidiaries;

• BWXT means BWX Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a subsidiary of BWICO, and its consolidated subsidiaries;

• B&W PGG means Babcock & Wilcox Power Generation Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a subsidiary of BWICO, and its consolidated subsidiaries;

• B&W NE means Babcock & Wilcox Nuclear Energy. Inc., a Delaware corporation and a subsidiary of BWICO, and its consolidated subsidiaries; and

• JRM means J. Ray McDermott, S.A., a Panamanian corporation and a subsidiary of MII, and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Unless the context otherwise indicates, “we,” “us” and “our” mean The Babcock & Wilcox Operations of McDermott International, Inc.

We operate in two business segments: Power Generation Systems; and Government Operations.

Our Power Generation Systems segment includes the business and operations of B&W PGG and B&W NE. Through this segment, we supply boilers fired with fossil fuels, such as coal, oil and natural gas, or renewable fuels such as biomass, municipal solid waste and concentrated solar energy. In addition, we supply commercial nuclear steam generators and components, environmental equipment and components, and related services to customers in different regions around the world. We design, engineer, manufacture, supply, construct and service large utility and industrial power generation systems, including boilers used to generate steam in electric power plants, pulp and paper making, chemical and process applications and other industrial uses.

Our Government Operations segment includes the business and operations of Babcock & Wilcox Nuclear Operations Group, Inc., Babcock & Wilcox Technical Services Group, Inc. and their respective subsidiaries. Through this segment, we manufacture nuclear components and provide various services to the U.S. Government, including uranium processing, environmental site restoration services, and management and operating services for various U.S. Government-owned facilities. These services are provided to the DOE, including the National Nuclear Security Administration, the Office of Nuclear Energy, the Office of Science and the Office of Environmental Management.

Total Inventories	$	95,009	$	98,644

Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents

At March 31, 2010, we had restricted cash and cash equivalents totaling $17.8 million, $9.7 million of which was held in restricted foreign accounts, $3.8 million of which was held as cash collateral for letters of credit, $4.0 million of which was held for future decommissioning of facilities, and $0.3 million of which was held to meet reinsurance reserve requirements of our captive insurance companies.

Warranty Expense

We accrue estimated expense to satisfy contractual warranty requirements when we recognize the associated revenue on the related contracts. In addition, we make specific provisions where we expect the actual warranty costs to significantly exceed the accrued estimates. Such provisions could have a material effect on our combined financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

The following summarizes the changes in the carrying amount of accrued warranty:

Charges		(2,896	)		(2,530	)
Balance at end of period	$	119,531		$	119,208

Research and Development

Research and development activities are related to the development and improvement of new and existing products and equipment as well as conceptual and engineering evaluation for translation into practical applications. We charge to cost of operations the costs of research and development unrelated to specific contracts as incurred. For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, our net research and development expense included in cost of operations totaled $17.1 million and $10.0 million, respectively. Substantially all of these costs are in our Power Generation Systems segment and include costs related to the development of carbon capture and sequestration technologies and our modular and scalable reactor, B&W mPower™.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a revision to the topic Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. This revision adds new fair value disclosures for certain transfers of investments between Level 1 and Level 2 measurements and clarifies existing disclosures regarding valuation techniques. On January 1, 2010, we adopted this revision. The adoption of this revision did not have an impact on our condensed combined financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued a revision to the topic Consolidation. This revision clarifies the scope of partial sale and deconsolidation provisions related to acquisitions and noncontrolling interests. On January 1, 2010, we adopted this revision. The adoption of this revision did not have an impact on our condensed combined financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued a revision to the topic Consolidation. This revision was subsequently amended in December 2009 and February 2010. These revisions expand the scope of this topic and amend guidance for assessing and analyzing variable interest entities. These revisions were effective on January 1, 2010 and had no impact on our condensed combined financial statements.

New Accounting Standards

In January 2010, the FASB issued a revision to the topic Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. This revision sets forth new rules on providing enhanced information for Level 3 measurements. The disclosure provisions under this revision will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, in both interim and annual disclosures. The adoption of this revision is not expected to have an impact on our condensed combined financial statements.

NOTE 2—BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

In January 2010, B&W PGG acquired all the outstanding equity interests in Götaverken Miljö AB, a flue gas cleaning and energy recovery company based in Gothenburg, Sweden. In connection with this acquisition, we recorded goodwill of approximately $7.8 million. We accounted for this acquisition as a business combination.

Cyphert filed suit against B&W PGG, Babcock & Wilcox Technical Services Group, Inc., formerly known as B&W Nuclear Environmental Services, Inc. and Atlantic Richfield Company in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania (the “Casella Litigation”). The plaintiffs in the Casella Litigation allege, among other things, that they suffered personal injuries and property damage as a result of alleged radioactive and non-radioactive releases relating to the operation, remediation and/or decommissioning of the same two former nuclear fuel processing facilities located in Apollo and Parks Township, Pennsylvania involved in the McMunn Litigation described in our combined financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007.

NOTE 5—DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Our worldwide operations give rise to exposure to market risks from changes in foreign exchange rates. We use derivative financial instruments (primarily foreign currency forward-exchange contracts) to reduce the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates on our operating results. We use these instruments primarily to hedge our exposure associated with revenues or costs on our long-term contracts and other cash flow exposures that are denominated in currencies other than our operating entities’ functional currencies. We do not hold or issue financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes.

We enter into derivative financial instruments primarily as hedges of certain firm purchase and sale commitments denominated in foreign currencies. We record these contracts at fair value on our condensed combined balance sheets. Depending on the hedge designation at the inception of the contract, the related gains and losses on these contracts are either deferred in parent equity (deficit) as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss until the hedged item is recognized in earnings, or offset against the change in fair value of the hedged firm commitment through earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value and any portion excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are immediately recognized in earnings. The gain or loss on a derivative instrument not designated as a hedging instrument is also immediately recognized in earnings. Gains and losses on derivative financial instruments that require immediate recognition are included as a component of other income (expense)—net in our condensed combined statements of income.

We have designated all of our forward contracts as cash flow hedges. The hedged risk is the risk of changes in functional-currency-equivalent cash flows attributable to changes in spot exchange rates of forecasted transactions related to long-term contracts and certain capital expenditures. We exclude from our assessment of effectiveness the portion of the fair value of the forward contracts attributable to the difference between spot exchange rates and forward exchange rates. Ineffective portions of our forward contracts are recorded in other income (expense)—net on our combined statements of income. At March 31, 2010, we had deferred approximately $4.2 million of net losses on these derivative financial instruments in accumulated other comprehensive loss. We expect to recognize substantially all of this amount in the next 12 months.

At March 31, 2010, all of our derivative financial instruments consisted of foreign currency forward-exchange contracts and foreign currency options. The notional value of our forward contracts totaled $143.2 million at March 31, 2010, with maturities extending to June 2013. These instruments consist primarily of contracts to purchase or sell Euros or Canadian Dollars. The fair value of these contracts was in a net liability position totaling $1.0 million at March 31, 2010 and was Level 2 in nature. The fair value of our foreign currency options totaled $4.8 million at March 31, 2010 and was included in other current assets on our combined balance sheets. The foreign currency options were Level 2 in nature (See Note 6).

We are exposed to credit-related losses in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to derivative financial instruments. However, when possible, we enter into International Swaps and Derivative Association,

Inc. agreements with our hedge counterparties to mitigate this risk. We also attempt to mitigate this risk by using major financial institutions with high credit ratings and limit our exposure to hedge counterparties based on their credit ratings. The counterparties to all of our derivative financial instruments are financial institutions included in our credit facilities described in Note 6 to our combined financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007. Our hedge counterparties have the benefit of the same collateral arrangements and covenants as those described with respect to our credit facilities.

Other Financial Instruments

We used the following methods and assumptions in estimating our fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amounts that we have reported in the accompanying combined balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents approximate their fair values.

Investments: We estimate the fair values of investments based on quoted market prices. For investments for which there are no quoted market prices, we derive fair values from available yield curves for investments of similar quality and terms.

NOTES TO CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)—(Continued)

Long- and short-term debt: We base the fair values of debt instruments on quoted market prices. Where quoted prices are not available, we base the fair values on the present value of future cash flows discounted at estimated borrowing rates for similar debt instruments or on estimated prices based on current yields for debt issues of similar quality and terms.

The estimated fair values of our financial instruments are as follows:

NOTE 9—RELATED PARTY

We have transactions with MII and its other subsidiaries occurring in the normal course of operations. These transactions included the following:

Our accounts payable with MII consist of items of a normal recurring nature, including, but not limited to, the items disclosed above. The balances are generally settled within 60 days of the invoice date.

Our note receivable from affiliate is a loan executed by Babcock & Wilcox Canada, Ltd., a subsidiary of B&W PGG, with J. Ray McDermott Canada Holding, Ltd. (“JRMCHL”) for up to 60 million Canadian Dollars. The actual amount funded to JRMCHL under this agreement was $45.2 million. Interest is set at the Canadian Prime Rate and is due quarterly. The loan agreement is scheduled to terminate on June 30, 2011, and the entire amount outstanding under the loan agreement, including accrued interest, is scheduled to become due and payable at that time. Either party may terminate the loan agreement by providing 30 days’ written notice to the other party, in which case the entire amount outstanding under the loan agreement, including accrued interest, would be due and payable at the end of that 30-day period. JRMCHL may repay the loan at any time, without penalty. No payments were made during the three months ended March 31, 2010. We expect this loan will be settled in connection with the spin-off.

Our note payable relates to a loan agreement with McDermott Kft., Budapest, Zug branch, the registered branch of McDermott Group Financing Limited Liability Company, whereby we borrowed $355 million in connection with a reorganization of various subsidiaries of McDermott. The loan bears interest at a rate of 7.25% and is payable quarterly. The loan matures on December 21, 2011. The loan principal is due in full on the maturity date but may be paid in whole or in part in advance without penalty. During the three months ended March 31, 2010 we had no new borrowings or repayments under this facility. We expect this loan will be settled in connection with the spin-off.

On September 17, 2009, we entered into a loan agreement with MII whereby we may borrow up to $5.0 million in connection with the acquisition of Instrumentacion y Mantenimiento de Calderas, S.A. Interest is set at the Eurodollar deposit rate and is due quarterly. The loan agreement is scheduled to terminate on December 31, 2014, and the entire amount outstanding under the loan agreement, including the accrued interest, is scheduled to become due and payable at that time. Either party may terminate the loan agreement by providing 30 days’ written notice to the other party, in which case the entire amount outstanding under the loan agreement, including the accrued interest, will become due and payable at the end of that 30-day period. We expect this loan will be settled in connection with the proposed spin-off.
