Transocean Ltd. (RIG) filed a Form 8K - Regulation FD Disclosure
- with the U.S Securities and Exchange Commission on November 29,
2016.
On November 29, 2016, Transocean Ltd. announced that Transocean
Proteus Limited (the "Issuer"), its wholly-owned indirect
subsidiary, has priced an offering of senior secured notes. The
Issuer will issue U.S. $625 million in aggregate principal amount
of senior secured notes due 2024 pursuant to Rule 144A/Regulation S
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to eligible
purchasers. The notes will be guaranteed by Transocean Ltd.,
Transocean Inc. and a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of
Transocean Ltd. that owns the drillship Deepwater Proteus. The
notes will be secured by a lien on the Deepwater Proteus and
certain other assets related to the rig.
The notes will bear interest at the rate of 6.25% per annum and
will be callable on or after December 1, 2020. The offering is
expected to close on or about December 8, 2016, subject to
customary closing conditions. The Issuer expects to receive
aggregate net proceeds of approximately U.S. $609 million from the
offering, after deducting the initial purchaser's discounts and
estimated offering costs. The net proceeds from the notes will be
used primarily for the purpose of partially financing the
construction of the Deepwater Proteus.
A copy of the press release announcing the pricing of the
offering is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated
herein by reference.

language in such filing.
