NON-GAAP DISCLOSURES This presentation includes several “non-GAAP” financial measures as defined under Regulation G of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Each of McDermott and CB&I reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), but McDermott and CB&I believe that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors regarding the underlying business trends and performance of respective ongoing operations of McDermott and CB&I and are useful for period-over-period comparisons of those operations. The non-GAAP measures in this presentation include Revenue (on a continuing operations basis), Gross Profit (on a continuing operations basis), EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Operating Income (Loss), Adjusted Operating Margin, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), and Free Cash Flow. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures and forecast non-GAAP financial measures presented herein to the most comparable GAAP measures are provided in the tables set forth at the end of this presentation.

ADJUSTMENTS TO CB&I’S FINANCIAL METRICS This deck includes certain non-GAAP financial metrics and adjustments for items that we believe to be non-recurring, as we believe this provides a better understanding of the underlying business. These adjustments are generally consistent with those used in McDermott’s adjusted financial metrics. The adjustments relate to the Four Focus Projects: IPL, Calpine, Freeport and Cameron We have performed thorough due diligence and believe we have a strong understanding of the key drivers and are comfortable with what needs to be done with these projects going forward We believe the Four Focus Projects are not representative of the entire portfolio and have unique characteristics that will continue to be de-risked significantly in 2018 We believe the overwhelming majority of the projects in CB&I’s portfolio are performing well, and adjusting out unusual charges relating to these Four Focus Projects provides a better understanding of the underlying business RESTRUCTURING, INTEGRATION AND ACQUISITION COSTS NUCLEAR OPERATIONS FOUR FOCUS PROJECTS EXCESS INTEREST & STOCK BASED COMPENSATION 2017 restructuring related costs are primarily associated with facility consolidation, severance and other employee related costs, professional fees, and other miscellaneous costs resulting from publicly announced cost reduction, facility rationalization and strategic initiatives. For 2014 and 2013, integration related costs primarily related to facility consolidations, including the associated accrued future lease costs for vacated facilities and unutilized capacity, personnel relocation and severance related costs and systems integration costs. For 2013, acquisition related costs primarily related to transactions costs, professional fees and change-in-control and severance related costs associated with the acquisition of the Shaw Group Inc. Impairment charges to goodwill and other intangible assets related to the Nuclear Operations and a loss on the sale of the Nuclear Operations were recorded in 2015. Additionally, an additional loss on the sale was recorded in the fourth quarter 2016 to establish a reserve for a transaction receivable associated with the sale of the Nuclear Operations Represents accelerated amortization of debt issuance costs (DIC) in the third and fourth quarters of 2017, accrual of anticipated make-whole payments on debt, and higher interest expense due to higher rates Charge related to the accelerated vesting of stock-based compensation under the company’s change-of-control agreements DEFERRED TAXES Represents additional tax expense during 2017 primarily resulting from the revaluation of U.S. net deferred tax assets due to a reduction in the U.S. Federal tax rate and the establishment of valuation allowances on all remaining net deferred tax assets. INSURANCE GAIN Represents the net gain from insurance proceeds in excess of associated costs for a fabrication facility that was damaged during Hurricane Harvey.

CB&I EBITDA AND ADJUSTED EBITDA RECONCILIATIONS BY SEGMENT FOR HISTORICAL RESULTS 2013 – 20171 1Sum of components may not foot due to rounding. 2CB&I's operations consist of the following four operating groups: Engineering & Construction (""E&C""), Fabrication Services (""FS""), Technology (""Tech"") and Capital Services (""CS"") (CS was sold in Q2 2017). Additionally, CB&I reported restructuring charges (""Res"") which are not allocated to any individual operating group. 3Represents Operating Income (Loss) as reported in CB&I’s public filings for the years 2013 through 2017. Note that CB&I Operating Income (Loss) by segment as reported excludes restructuring costs, which are presented as a component of Operating Income (Loss) on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Further, 2017 excludes the discontinued Capital Services Operations. 4Represents the reclassification and adjustments associated with the presentation of discontinued operations of CB&I. Includes the removal of the Nuclear Operations, previously reported as part of the E&C operating group, due to its sale in the fourth quarter 2015; the removal of the Capital Services Operations to align with its classification as a discontinued operation during the first quarter 2017 and subsequent sale in the second quarter 2017; and any elimination adjustments due to the reclassification of the aforementioned. 5EBITDA is defined as net income plus depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net and provision for income taxes. As CB&I does not report net income by segment, we have alternatively calculated EBITDA as operating income (loss), less noncontrolling interest, plus depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA less the non-GAAP adjustments detailed in footnotes 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10. 6Represents charges recorded as a result of the sale of CB&I’s former Nuclear Operations. A loss on the sale of the operations and impairment of the related goodwill and other intangibles was recorded in the fourth quarter 2015 and an additional charge was recorded in the fourth quarter 2016 related to the establishment of a reserve for the Transaction Receivable associated with the sale. 7In connection with the Combination Agreement to combine with McDermott, change in control provisions were triggered for certain management which resulted in their equity-based awards (restricted stock units) becoming fully vested. The additional compensation expense was primarily recorded to selling and administrative expense. 8Represents the impact of significant changes in estimates on two U.S. gas turbine power projects and two U.S. LNG export facility projects. 92017 restructuring related costs are primarily associated with facility consolidation, severance and other employee related costs, professional fees, and other miscellaneous costs resulting from publicly announced cost reduction, facility rationalization and strategic initiatives. For 2014 and 2013, integration related costs primarily related to facility consolidations, including the associated accrued future lease costs for vacated facilities and unutilized capacity, personnel relocation and severance related costs and systems integration costs. For 2013, acquisition related costs primarily related to transactions costs, professional fees and change-in-control and severance related costs associated with the acquisition of the Shaw Group Inc. 10Represents the net gain from insurance proceeds received (approximately $99.0 million) in excess of associated costs (approximately $36.3 million) for a fabrication facility that was damaged during Hurricane Harvey.   Year Ended Year Ended Year Ended Year Ended Year Ended   Dec 31, 2013 Dec 31, 2014 Dec 31, 2015 Dec 31, 2016 Dec 31, 2017   E&C FS Tech CS Res Total E&C FS Tech CS Res Total E&C FS Tech CS Res Total E&C FS Tech CS Res Total E&C FS Tech CS Res Total (Dollars In millions)                                                                                                                           Operating Income (Loss), as reported3 $317 $288 $129 $47 ($96) $685 $519 $274 $148 $81 ($40) $983 ($875) $225 $151 $74 - ($425) $159 $183 $105 ($592) - ($145) ($544) $258 $105 - ($115) ($295) Less: Reclassification of Discontinued Operations and Adjustments4 (67) (2) (0) (47) 15 (101) (167) (3) (1) (81) 8 (244) (226) (4) (0) (74) - (305) (15) (4) (0) 592 - 572 - - - - - - Operating Income (Loss), on a continuing operations basis $250 $286 $128 - ($81) $583 $351 $272 $147 - ($31) $739 ($1,102) $221 $150 - - ($730) $143 $179 $105 - - $428 ($544) $258 $105 - ($115) ($295)                                                               Plus: Depreciation & Amortization, as reported 64 61 21 34 - 180 63 61 24 34 - 181 48 56 23 34 - 161 17 54 23 28 - 123 17 49 23 - - 88 Less: Operating Income (Loss) Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests (53) (5) - (1) - (58) (85) (6) - (2) - (93) (63) (9) - (3) - (74) (67) (5) - (2) - (73) (30) (3) - - - (33) Less: Reclassification of Discontinued Operations and Adjustments4 (28) - - (33) - (60) (31) 0 - (32) - (62) (25) 1 - (31) - (56) 1 1 - (26) - (24) - - - - - - EBITDA5 $234 $342 $149 - ($81) $644 $298 $328 $171 - ($31) $765 ($1,142) $270 $173 - - ($699) $95 $230 $128 - - $453 ($557) $304 $128 - ($115) ($240)                                                               Plus: Adjustments                                                             Charges Related to Nuclear Operations Sale6 - - - - - - - - - - - - 1,506 - - - - 1,506 148 - - - - 148 - - - - - - Long-Term Incentive Change in Control Expense7 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 8 3 1 - - 12 Significant Project Charges8 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 197 - - - - 197 870 - - - - 870 Restructuring, Acquisition and Integration Costs9 - - - - 81 81 - - - - 31 31 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 115 115 Net Gain from Insurance Proceeds10 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - (63) - - - (63) Adjusted EBITDA5 $234 $342 $149 - - $725 $298 $328 $171 - - $797 $364 $270 $173 - - $807 $440 $230 $128 - - $798 $321 $245 $128 - - $694

Tax effects of Non-GAAP adjustments represent the estimated tax impacts of the adjustments during the period. 13EBITDA is defined as net income plus depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net and provision for income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA less the adjustments detailed in footnotes 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9. We have included EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA disclosures in this presentation because EBITDA is widely used by investors for valuation and comparing financial performance with the performance of other companies in the industry and because Adjusted EBITDA provides a consistent measure of EBITDA relating to the underlying business. McDermott management also uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to monitor and compare the financial performance of the operations. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not give effect to the cash that must be used to service debt or pay income taxes, and, thus, do not reflect the funds actually available for capital expenditures, dividends or various other purposes. In addition, the presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures in other companies’ reports. You should not consider EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA in isolation from, or as a substitute for, net income or cash flow measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. 14Represents the reclassification and adjustments associated with the presentation of discontinued operations of CB&I.

McDERMOTT NON-GAAP EBITDA RECONCILIATIONS BY SEGMENT FOR 2017 1Transaction-related costs of $8.9 million were recorded during the fourth quarter of 2017 associated with the proposed combination with CB&I. 2A $5.2 million in gain was recorded in the quarter ended December 31, 2017, as a result of the non-cash actuarial mark-to-market adjustment recorded in the fourth quarter of each year. 3The adjustments to GAAP Net Income have been income tax effected when included in net income. Tax effects of Non-GAAP adjustments represent the tax impacts of the adjustments during the period. Some Non-GAAP adjusting items are primarily attributable to tax jurisdictions in which the Company, currently, does not pay taxes and, therefore, no tax impact is applied to them. For the Non-GAAP adjusting items in jurisdictions where taxes are paid, the tax impacts on those adjustments are computed, individually, using the statutory tax rate in effect in each applicable taxable jurisdiction. 4EBITDA is defined as net income plus depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net, and provision for income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA less the adjustments relating to restructuring charges, impairment loss, and gain/loss on pension as detailed in footnotes 1 and 2. We have included EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA disclosures in this supplemental deck because EBITDA is widely used by investors for valuation and comparing financial performance with the performance of other companies in the industry and because Adjusted EBITDA provides a consistent measure of EBITDA relating to the underlying business. McDermott management also uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to monitor and compare the financial performance of the operations.

McDERMOTT NON-GAAP EBITDA RECONCILIATIONS FOR HISTORICAL RESULTS 2013 – 2017 1Restructuring charges were primarily associated with personnel reductions, facility closures, consultant fees, lease terminations and asset impairments. 2We recorded impairment charges as follows: - In 2013, we recorded impairment charges of $46.7 million representing the total amount of our goodwill, which was primarily related to a 2007 acquisition. In addition, we recorded $37.8 million of vessel-related impairment charges. - In 2014, we recorded an improvement of $10.7 million to the cancellation cost estimate included in the $37.8 million of vessel-related impairment charges recorded in the prior year, as a result of the cancellation of a pipelay system intended for one of our vessels. In addition, we recorded impairment charges of $1.7 million related to certain intangible asset. - In 2015, we recorded an impairment charge of $6.8 million for the abandonment of a marine pipelay welding system project. - In 2016, we recorded impairment charges of $55.0 million related to certain marine assets, including $32.3 million of impairment related to our Agile vessel following the customer's termination of the vessel's charter in May 2016. 3During the third quarter of 2016, we mutually and amicably exited our joint venture in Malaysia. We sold our joint venture interest and recorded a $5.0 million gain to other income (expense), net. 4Costs related to a legal settlement of $16.7 million were recorded during the third quarter of 2015. 5Transaction-related costs of $8.9 million were recorded during the fourth quarter of 2017 associated with the proposed combination with CB&I. 6In the fourth quarter of each year, we record non-cash actuarial mark-to-market adjustments for our benefit plans. These adjustments are recorded in selling, general, and administrative expenses in accordance with our pension accounting policy. Actuarial gains and losses are primarily driven by changes in the actuarial assumptions, discount rates, and actual return on pension assets. 7The adjustments to GAAP Net Income have been income tax effected when included in net income. Tax effects of Non-GAAP adjustments represent the tax impacts of the adjustments during the period. Some Non-GAAP adjusting items are primarily attributable to tax jurisdictions in which McDermott currently does not pay taxes and, therefore, no tax impact is applied to them. For the Non-GAAP adjusting items in jurisdictions where taxes are paid, the tax impacts on those adjustments are computed, individually, using the statutory tax rate in effect in each applicable taxable jurisdiction. 8Includes the Non-GAAP adjustments described in footnotes 1, 2, 4, 5 and 6 above. 9EBITDA is defined as net income plus depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net, and provision for income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA less the adjustments relating to restructuring charges, impairment loss, gain on JV exit, legal settlement, and gain/loss on pension as detailed in footnotes 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. We have included EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA disclosures in this supplemental deck because EBITDA is widely used by investors for valuation and comparing financial performance with the performance of other companies in the industry and because Adjusted EBITDA provides a consistent measure of EBITDA relating to the underlying business. McDermott management also uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to monitor and compare the financial performance of the operations.
