Prosafe has the Safe Eurus in a preserved, strategic stacking mode with COSCO

Safe Nova and Safe Vega and will enter into negotiations with Cosco and related
parties for a workable delivery and commercial solution of the two semi-
submersibles that are nearing completion. If no agreement is made, Prosafe has
the right to claim cancellation on the newbuilding contracts due to late
delivery and claim deposit of approx. USD 60 million fully secured by Bank of

Following the completion of the acquisition of Safe Nova and Safe Vega, Prosafe
has now taken a final decision to sell Safe Lancia for scrap/recycling.
