$200,000,000 Delayed-Draw Term Loan Facility

Commitment Letter

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Reference is made to that certain Restructuring Support Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as the same may be amended, restated, modified or supplemented from time to time in accordance with its terms, together with the exhibits, schedules and annexes attached thereto, the “RSA”), among Superior Energy Services, Inc. (“you” or “Parent”), each direct and indirect wholly-owned, domestic subsidiary of Parent party thereto (each an “SPN Subsidiary,” and together with Parent, the “Company”), and the Consenting Noteholders party thereto.

Parent has advised us that, in accordance with the RSA, the Company intends to, among other things, restructure its debt obligations and capital structure and to recapitalize the Company through a chapter 11 plan of reorganization (the “Restructuring”). In connection with the foregoing, you have requested that the parties listed on Annex 1 hereto (“us”, “we” or the “Commitment Parties”) agree to backstop a multiple draw term loan facility (the “Delayed-Draw Term Loan Facility”) in an aggregate amount of $200,000,000 to become available to the Company (as reorganized in accordance with the Restructuring, the “Reorganized Company”) upon the emergence of the Reorganized Company (or, in the event that the Company effects the Company Separation in connection with the Restructuring, Reorganized RemainCo) from such chapter 11 plan of reorganization in the event that Acceptable Alternate Exit Financing (as defined below) is not available to the Reorganized Company or Reorganized RemainCo, as applicable, at such time. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein are used with the meanings assigned to them in Summary of Principal Terms and Conditions attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Term Sheet,” together with this letter, collectively, this “Commitment Letter”) or the RSA, as applicable.

Commitment

In connection with the foregoing, the Commitment Parties are pleased to advise you of their commitment to provide the Delayed-Draw Term Loan Facility, on a several and not joint basis, in the amounts set forth opposite each such Commitment Party’s name on Annex 1 hereto (the “DDTL Commitments”) upon the terms set forth or referred to in this Commitment Letter, including the Term Sheet, and subject only to the satisfaction or waiver of the Financing Conditions (as defined below).

The rights and obligations of each of the Commitment Parties under this Commitment Letter shall be several and not joint, and no failure of any Commitment Party to comply with any of its obligations hereunder shall prejudice the rights or obligations of any other Commitment Party; provided that no Commitment Party shall be required to replace the DDTL Commitment of another Commitment Party in the event such other Commitment Party (the “Defaulting Commitment Party”) fails to provide its DDTL Commitment on the Closing Date (as defined below), but may at its option do so, in whole or in part, in which case such performing Commitment Party shall be entitled to all or a proportionate share, as the case may be, of the Delayed-Draw Term Loan Facility and related fees that would otherwise be issued to the Defaulting Commitment Party. In the event that any Defaulting Commitment Party fails to execute the Definitive Financing Documentation on the Closing Date, the Company can enforce rights of money damages upon such breach and any other remedies that may be available under law.

You will use commercially reasonable efforts to designate a third party reasonably acceptable to the Commitment Parties having or holding a majority of the outstanding principal amount of the DDTL Commitments (excluding any Defaulting Commitment Parties, the “Required Commitment Parties”) and you to act as the administrative agent and collateral agent with respect to the Delayed-Draw Term Loan Facility (the “DDTL Agent”). For the avoidance of doubt, each Commitment Party confirms that its DDTL Commitments under this Commitment Letter are not conditional upon any person being so appointed DDTL Agent.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Commitment Letter to the contrary and notwithstanding any syndication, assignment or other transfer by any Commitment Party, (a) no Commitment Party shall be relieved, released or novated from its obligations hereunder (including its obligation to fund its applicable percentage of the Delayed-Draw Term Loan Facility on or after the Closing Date) in connection with any syndication, assignment or other transfer until after the Definitive Financing Documentation becomes effective on the Closing Date, (b) no such syndication, assignment or other transfer shall become effective with respect to any portion of the Commitment Party’s commitments in respect of the Delayed-Draw Term Loan Facility until the Closing Date and (c) unless the Borrower agrees in writing, the Commitment Parties shall retain exclusive control over all rights and obligations with respect to the DDTL Commitments in respect of the Delayed-Draw Term Loan Facility, including all rights with respect to consents, waivers, modifications, supplements and amendments, until the Closing Date has occurred.

It is understood and agreed that, in the event that the Company effects a Company Separation in connection with the Restructuring the Delayed-Draw Term Loan Facility shall be reduced in size and the Financial Covenants and Negative Covenants adjusted based on the assets and EBITDA attributable to Reorganized RemainCo, in each case, proportionately by an amount reflecting the size and scale of the Reorganized RemainCo relative to the Company prior to the Company Separation and as agreed by you and the Required Commitment Parties in light of the size, scale and nature of the business of Reorganized RemainCo.

Information.

You hereby represent and warrant that (a) all written factual information, other than (i) the Projections (as defined below), estimates, budgets and other forward looking information and (ii) information of a general economic or industry specific nature (such written information other than as described in the immediately preceding clauses (i) and (ii), the “Information”), that has been or will be made available to us by you or any of your representatives on your behalf at your direction in connection herewith is or will be, when taken as a whole after giving effect to all supplements and updates provided thereto, when furnished supplemented or updated, correct in all material respects and does not or will not, when taken as a whole after giving effect to all supplements and updates provided thereto, when furnished supplemented or updated, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements are made and (b) the financial projections (the “Projections”) that have been or will be made available to us by you or on behalf of you or any of your representatives on your behalf at your direction in connection herewith have been or will be prepared in good faith based upon assumptions that are reasonable at the time made and at the time the related Projections are made available to us; it being understood that (x) the Projections are merely a prediction as to future events and are not to be viewed as facts, (y) the Projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond your control and (z) no assurance can be given that any particular Projection will be realized and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any the Projections may differ significantly from the projected results and such differences may be material. You agree that if, at any time prior to the execution of the Definitive Financing Documentation, you become aware that any of the representations in the preceding sentence would be incorrect in any material respect if the Information and Projections were being furnished, and such representations were being made, at such time, then you will promptly supplement the Information and the Projections, as applicable, so that such representations will be correct in all material respects under those circumstances; provided that any such supplementation shall cure any breach of such representations and warranties; provided further that such supplementation shall be deemed to include any public SEC filings and press releases by you as long as we shall have been advised in writing of such public SEC filings or press releases.

Put Option Premium

As consideration for the commitments and agreements of the Commitment Parties hereunder, Parent agrees to pay or cause to be paid to each Commitment Party or its designee, for its own account, a put option premium (the “Put Option Premium”) in cash in an amount equal to 6.00% of the stated principal amount of the DDTL Commitments of such Commitment Party, which Put Option Premium shall be fully-earned and due and payable on the date hereof; provided that a Defaulting Commitment Party shall forthwith refund to the Parent in immediately available funds, any Put Option Premium received by it after it fails to provide its DDTL Commitment and execute the Definitive Financing Documentation on the Closing Date. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, the Commitment Parties and the Company shall not take any position or action inconsistent with the treatment and/or characterization, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, of the Put Option Premium as a premium for the right of the Company to put the Term Loans to the Commitment Parties.

Guarantees:		All obligations of the Borrower (the “Borrower Obligations”) under the Delayed-Draw Term Loan Facility will be unconditionally guaranteed jointly and severally on a senior secured basis (the “Guarantees”) by the immediate parent company of the Borrower (if any) (“Holdings”) and each existing and subsequently acquired or organized direct or indirect wholly-owned domestic subsidiary of the Borrower (collectively, the “Guarantors” and, together with the Borrower, the “Loan Parties” and, each individually, a “Loan Party”), provided that Guarantors shall not include (a) any subsidiary to the extent the provision of a Guarantee by such subsidiary would result in material adverse tax consequences as determined by the Borrower and the DDTL Agent, (b) any subsidiary (each a “Foreign Holdco”) substantially all of the assets of which are equity interests and/or equity interests and indebtedness of one or more “controlled foreign corporations” (as defined in Section 957 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) (each, a “CFC”) or any subsidiary that is a subsidiary of a CFC or Foreign Holdco, (c) captive insurance companies, (d) not-for-profit subsidiaries, and (e) any subsidiary that is prohibited by applicable law, rule or regulation existing on the Closing Date (or, if later, the date it becomes a subsidiary) from guaranteeing the Delayed-Draw Term Loan Facility.

		Notwithstanding the foregoing, subsidiaries may be excluded from the guarantee requirements in circumstances where the Borrower and the DDTL Agent reasonably agree that the cost of providing such a guarantee is excessive in relation to the value afforded thereby.



Security:		The Borrower Obligations, the Guarantees and the hedging/cash management arrangements will be secured by: (a) a perfected first priority (subject to permitted liens) pledge of 100% of the capital stock or other membership or partnership equity ownership or profit interests owned by the Borrower and each other Guarantor in any wholly-owned first tier subsidiary (provided that such pledge would not result in material adverse tax consequences as determined by the Borrower and the DDTL Agent); and (b) a perfected first priority (subject to permitted liens) security interest in substantially all tangible and intangible personal property of the Borrower and each Guarantor (including but not limited to accounts, inventory, equipment, general intangibles (including contract rights), deposit and securities accounts, other investment property, intellectual property, intercompany notes and all products and proceeds of the foregoing, but excluding certain customary exceptions to be agreed) (the items described in clauses (a) and (b) above, collectively, the “Collateral”); provided that, in the event that any Acceptable Alternate Exit Financing consists of an asset-based credit facility, the foregoing security interests shall be subject to the security interests granted in the definitive loan documents relating to such Acceptable Alternate Exit Financing. For the avoidance of doubt, no security interest shall be required in any leased real estate of the Borrower or any Guarantor or in any fee-owned real estate of the Borrower or any Guarantor to the extent the fair market value of such fee-owned real estate is below a threshold to be agreed.

		All the above-described pledges and security interests shall be created on terms (including with respect to excluded assets, perfection requirements and materiality thresholds), and pursuant to documentation to be set forth in the Definitive Financing Documentation; and none of the Collateral shall be subject to other pledges and security interests (except permitted liens and other exceptions to be set forth in the Definitive Financing Documentation).

Voluntary Prepayments and Reductions in Commitments:		Voluntary reductions of the unutilized portion of the Delayed-Draw Term Loan Facility commitments and voluntary prepayments of the Term Loans will be permitted at any time in minimum principal amounts to be agreed upon, without premium or penalty, other than the Call Protection Provisions (as defined below) and reimbursement of the Lenders’ redeployment costs in the case of a prepayment of LIBOR borrowings other than on the last day of the relevant interest period.

		All voluntary prepayments of the Term Loans shall be applied as directed by the Borrower (and, if not directed by the Borrower, to the remaining amortization payments under the Term Loans in direct order of maturity).


	Any optional prepayment of the Delayed-Draw Term Loan Facility (or mandatory prepayment thereof with the proceeds of the incurrence of any indebtedness), will be subject to the “prepayment” premiums (expressed as a percentage of the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans so prepaid) set forth below opposite the relevant period from the Closing Date:

	Period:	Percentage:
	Year 1:	101%
	Year 2:	103%
	Year 3:	102%
	Thereafter:	No premium

	Any optional reduction or termination of the commitments in respect of the Delayed-Draw Term Loan Facility (or mandatory reduction thereof due to the establishment of Acceptable Alternate Exit Financing), will be subject to the cancellation fees (expressed as a percentage of the undrawn commitments so reduced or terminated) set forth below opposite the relevant period from the Closing Date:

	Period:	Percentage:
	Year 1:	1%
	Year 2:	3%
	Year 3:	2%
	Thereafter:	No fee

	The foregoing “prepayment” premiums and cancellation fees are collectively referred to herein as the “Call Protection Provisions”.

Mandatory Prepayments and Commitment Reductions:	Term Loans shall be subject to the following mandatory prepayments: (a) For any fiscal year, commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021, 75% of Excess Cash Flow (to be defined in a customary manner in the Definitive Financing Documentation) of the Borrower and its subsidiaries for such fiscal year, subject to deductions, a de minimis threshold to be agreed and customary exceptions for the proceeds of asset sales and dispositions made by, and Excess Cash Flow attributable to, foreign subsidiaries to the extent prepayments with such proceeds or Excess Cash Flow (i) is prohibited by local law or (ii) would result in material adverse tax consequences as determined by the Borrower in good faith; provided that, when the Term Loans and undrawn Delayed-Draw Term Loan Facility Commitments shall have been reduced to not more than $100,000,000 in the aggregate, the foregoing percentage shall be reduced to 50%;

(b) 100% of the net cash proceeds of any non-ordinary course asset sales or other dispositions of property by the Borrower and its subsidiaries subject to customary reinvestment rights to be agreed; and

(c) 100% of the net cash proceeds of issuances of debt obligations of the Borrower and its subsidiaries after the Closing Date (excluding proceeds of debt permitted to be incurred under the Credit Documentation (including any Acceptable Alternate Exit Financing (as defined below), Refinancing Facilities or Refinancing Equivalent Debt)).

The undrawn commitments in respect of the Delayed-Draw Term Loan Facility shall also be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis (pro rata among the commitments of DDTL Lenders at such time) in the event that, on or after the Closing Date, the Company establishes revolving credit commitments on terms and conditions satisfactory to the DDTL Lenders holding a majority of the Term Loans and undrawn commitments under the Delayed-Draw Term Loan Facility (the “Required DDTL Lenders”) from one or more financial institutions satisfactory to Required DDTL Lenders (any such revolving credit commitment, an “Acceptable Alternate Exit Financing”). Any undrawn commitments in respect of the Delayed-Draw Term Loan Facility in effect on the first anniversary of the Closing Date shall also automatically terminate on such date.

Mandatory prepayments shall be applied, without premium or penalty (other than the Call Protection Provisions), subject to reimbursement of the DDTL Lenders’ redeployment costs in the case of a prepayment of LIBOR borrowings other than on the last day of the relevant interest period to reduce the then remaining scheduled amortization payments (excluding the balloon payment due at maturity). For the avoidance of doubt, mandatory prepayments shall be made without any duplicative reduction in commitments.
