Liquidity <strong>and</strong> Capital Resources<br />
Sources <strong>and</strong> Uses of Cash<br />
Our primary sources of cash during the year ended December 31, <strong>2010</strong> were our cash flows from operating activities, proceeds<br />
from the issuance in September <strong>2010</strong> of our 4.95% Senior Notes <strong>and</strong> our 6.50% Senior Notes <strong>and</strong> the receipt of insurance proceeds of<br />
$560 million following the total loss of Deepwater Horizon. Our primary uses of cash were capital expenditures, primarily associated with<br />
our newbuild projects, repurchases of our Convertible Senior Notes <strong>and</strong> repurchases of shares under our share repurchase program. At<br />
December 31, <strong>2010</strong>, we had $3.4 billion in cash <strong>and</strong> cash equivalents.<br />

Changes in operating assets <strong>and</strong> liabilities, net 409 434 (25)<br />
$ 3,946 $ 5,598 $ (1,652)<br />
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased primarily due to less cash generated from net income, after adjusting for<br />
non-cash items largely related to a loss on impairment to our St<strong>and</strong>ard Jackup asset group <strong>and</strong> a gain on the loss of Deepwater Horizon<br />
during the year ended December 31, <strong>2010</strong>.<br />

Cash flows from investing activities<br />
Capital expenditures $ (1,411) $ (3,052 ) $ 1,641<br />
Proceeds from disposal of assets, net 60 18 42<br />
Proceeds from insurance recoveries for loss of drilling unit 560 — 560<br />

Joint ventures <strong>and</strong> other investments, net (4) 45 (49)<br />
$ (721) $ (2,694 ) $ 1,973<br />
Net cash used in investing activities decreased primarily due to reduced capital expenditures, as five of our Ultra-Deepwater<br />
Floaters were under construction during the year ended December 31, <strong>2010</strong> compared to 10 of our Ultra-Deepwater Floaters that were<br />
under construction during the year ended December 31, 2009. In addition, net cash used in investing activities declined as a result of the<br />
proceeds from insurance recoveries for the loss of Deepwater Horizon in the year ended December 31, <strong>2010</strong>. These reductions of net<br />
cash used in investing activities were partially offset by reduced proceeds from, <strong>and</strong> net of purchases of, short-term investments as a result<br />
of diminished investing activity in marketable securities during the year ended December 31, <strong>2010</strong> compared to the year ended<br />
December 31, 2009.
