Explanation of Responses:
( 1)  Upon the vesting of our restricted share units, the reporting person is required to pay the aggregate nominal value (par value), $0.10 per share, of our Class A ordinary shares actually issued, in accordance with U.K. corporate law. In connection with the transaction reported above, the reporting person paid $80.00 to Ensco plc with respect to the shares actually issued upon vesting of the restricted share units. The remaining 267 shares were withheld and not issued to satisfy certain tax withholding obligations.
( 2)  These shares were withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations that arose upon vesting.
( 3)  The restricted share units vest in five equal annual installments.
