Forward Looking Statements / Safe Harbor In accordance with the Safe Harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, McDermott cautions that statements in this presentation that are forward-looking and provide other than historical information involve risks and uncertainties that may impact actual results and any future performance suggested in the forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements in this presentation speak to conditions as of the date of this presentation and include statements regarding backlog, to the extent backlog may be viewed as an indicator of future revenues; the proposed separation of B&W and J. Ray, including the manner, timing, tax-free nature and expect benefits thereof; and the anticipated management teams and other information about B&W and J. Ray that is not historical in nature. Although McDermott’s management believes that the expectations reflected in those forward-looking statements are reasonable, McDermott can give no assurance that those expectations will prove to have been correct.  Those statements are made based on various underlying assumptions and are subject to numerous uncertainties and risks, including, without limitation, delays or other difficulties in completing the proposed separation, the risk that the propose separation may not be completed as anticipated or at all, disruptions experienced with customers and suppliers, the inability of either J. Ray or B&W to successfully operate independently and the inability to retain key personnel. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements prove incorrect, actual outcomes could vary materially from those anticipated. For a more complete discussion of these and other risks, please see McDermott’s periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 and subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. We do not undertake any obligation to update the forward-looking statements included in this presentation to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this presentation, unless we are required by applicable securities laws to do so.

Compelling Strategic and Financial Benefits Better positions each company to accelerate growth based on distinct corporate strategy, market opportunities, free cash flow and customer relationships Independent Pure-Play Companies More efficient allocation of capital, which would allow each company to develop an independent investment program without the constraints of a holding company structure Efficient Capital Allocation Distinct publicly traded stock that could be used as currency for future acquisitions Attractive Currencies Sharpened management focus and strategic vision, and closer alignment of incentives with shareholder value creation Focused Management Elimination of the risk posed by recent modifications of the rules under the Federal Acquisition Regulations (“FAR”) that limit the U.S. Government’s ability to contract with “inverted” companies and their subsidiaries Elimination of FAR Issues

Background on U.S. Federal Acquisition Regulation (“FAR”) As outlined in McDermott’s filings with the SEC, recent interim rules prohibit federal agencies from awarding new contracts to inverted companies and their subsidiariesThese interim rules were passed on July 1, 2009 by the Civilian Agency Acquisition Council and the Defense Acquisition Regulations CouncilTo date, FAR has not yet significantly impacted the Company’s operations or profitabilityMcDermott is incorporated in Panama as a result of our inversion in the 1980s, and as such the new regulations may impact our ability to pursue new contract awards with the U.S. GovernmentOnly B&W, which derives a substantial amount of its revenues and profits from services provided to the U.S. Government, would be affected by the regulationsJ. Ray would not be affected – not a Government contractorExisting contracts should not be impacted by FARFollowing the spin-off, B&W would be an independent company still incorporated in Delaware but without a foreign parent, and thus would be able to compete for Government contracts without restriction from the interim rules of the FARNo change to J. Ray’s incorporation is anticipated Separation Eliminates FAR Risks
