The above-captioned debtors and debtors in possession (collectively, the “Debtors”) 1 A list of the Debtors in these chapter 11 cases may be obtained on the website of the Debtors’ claims and noticing agent at http://cases.stretto.com/Valaris. Debtor Ensco Incorporated’s principal place of business and the Debtors’ service address in these chapter 11 cases is 5847 San Felipe Street, Suite 3300, Houston, Texas 77057. Case 20-34114 Document 537 Filed in TXSB on 10/20/20 Page 2 of 34 respectfully state as follows in support of this motion (this “Motion”). Preliminary Statement2 1. Historically, the Debtors’ success has been borne on the shoulders of their most important asset: their highly skilled, productive workforce. With a fleet of 63 rigs, the Debtors operate the industry’s largest modern offshore drilling fleet and maintain drilling operations in nearly every major offshore market. The Debtors’ fleet is among the most technologically advanced in the industry, requiring well-trained crews possessing specialized and project-specific knowledge to meet the requirements of customers like Saudi Aramco, BP plc, Chrysaor Holdings Limited, Abu Dhabi National Oil Company, Lundin Energy, Royal Dutch Shell plc, and Eni S.p.A. Indeed, the Debtors have been recognized in industry surveys for their operational excellence and customer satisfaction. To maintain such high standards and drive their financial performance, the Debtors incentivized their employees through various compensation programs providing market-based financial incentives based on performance. Incentivizing and retaining this specialized workforce while the Debtors remain in chapter 11 is even more essential, as replacing these employees cannot occur without substantial costs and disrupting customer operations. 2. It is equally important to incentivize the Debtors’ management to achieve strong results while facing daunting industry challenges and operating in chapter 11. In March 2020, market conditions deteriorated as the COVID-19 global pandemic spread and efforts to stem its transmission decreased factory output and transportation demand, resulting in an 18 percent decline in daily global demand for crude oil. A price war between the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and Russia exacerbated these conditions, causing even more surplus supply amidst decreasing energy demand. These strains have placed increasing demands 2 Capitalized terms used but not defined in this section have the meanings given to them elsewhere in the Motion. 2 Case 20-34114 Document 537 Filed in TXSB on 10/20/20 Page 3 of 34 on the Debtors’ senior management team. They have been focused not only on weathering this storm, but also guiding the Debtors’ complex international business strategy while undertaking the extensive preparations required to file these chapter 11 cases. These executives’ experience, focus, and dedication to operating such a complex business efficiently, safely, and effectively in a volatile industry environment will continue to be critical to the overall success of the Debtors’ restructuring and maximizing recoveries for all stakeholders. Incentivizing these executives with market-based compensation programs that are aligned with the Debtors’ historical compensation programs for senior management is as necessary to the Debtors’ continued operational success. 3. This Motion therefore seeks approval of (1) the Debtors’ Key Employee Incentive Plan (the “KEIP”), which includes twelve members of the Debtors’ senior management team; and (2) the Debtors’ Key Employee Retention Plan (the “KERP,” and together with the KEIP, the “Compensation Plans”), which includes approximately 490 key non-insider employees. Like other similar-sized companies in the oil and gas industry, the Debtors historically utilized a number of incentive- and retention-based programs to ensure that all employees have a stake in, and the opportunity to benefit from, the company’s performance. In addition to cash-based programs, the Debtors’ prepetition compensation programs also included stock awards for senior management and most employees participating in the proposed KERP. However, following the decline of the Debtors’ stock price as result of the COVID-19 crisis, an oil price war, and long-term macroeconomic factors, the Debtors concluded that these prepetition stock awards no longer served their purpose of properly incentivizing the Debtors’ workforce. 4. As the Debtors approached filing for chapter 11, the Debtors worked with their advisors, including Alvarez & Marsal, LLC (“A&M”), as compensation advisor,3 to evaluate the 3 The Debtors also retained A&M as a financial advisor in these chapter 11 cases. See Docket No. 329. 3 Case 20-34114 Document 537 Filed in TXSB on 10/20/20 Page 4 of 34 Debtors’ Compensation Plans. Leading this charge was the compensation committee (the “Compensation Committee”) of the Debtors’ board of directors (the “Board”), which was comprised of five experienced directors, none of whom are beneficiaries of the Compensation Plans. In formulating these plans, the Compensation Committee undertook a deliberative process, convening frequently with the Debtors’ advisors, to understand how to best incentivize the workforce in light of a likely in-court restructuring during 2020. 5. As a result of this process, the Debtors designed the Compensation Plans to achieve the desired operational performance while ensuring they were consistent with their own prepetition and industry practices, within the market range of compensation offered at comparable companies, and reasonable in terms of size and scope.4 Specifically, the participants in the Compensation Plans are the same employees who were eligible to participate in the Debtors’ prepetition plans. The incentive plan metrics—downtime, expense reductions, and safety—are common across the Debtors’ competitors. At “target” performance levels, the members of senior management participating in the KEIP will see a 7.9 percent reduction on average in their total compensation from 2019 levels. Indeed, the total direct compensation under the Debtors’ plans at “target” is 6 percent lower under the Compensation Plans—$99.3 million, comprised of the $19.1 million under the KEIP and the $80.2 million under the KERP—than it was under the Debtors’ 2019 prepetition plans ($105.0 million). The “target” cost per participant is at the 31st percentile for the KEIP and the 70th percentile for the KERP—both firmly within market. Thus, the Compensation Plans will encourage and reward achievement of performance targets established by the Board, focus key employees on value-maximization for the benefit of all stakeholders, and offer total 4 Unless noted otherwise, the term “market” means at or below the 75th percentile of the applicable peer group examined by A&M. 4 Case 20-34114 Document 537 Filed in TXSB on 10/20/20 Page 5 of 34 compensation opportunities consistent with prior years and the market based on court-approved plans for similarly situated companies. 6. Importantly, the Compensation Plans comply with the Bankruptcy Code. No retention payments are made to insiders. Payments under the KEIP and incentive payments under the KERP are made only if participants achieve objective performance goals. These goals represent difficult-to-reach targets and challenging, incentive-based benchmarks that, if met, will bring real benefit to the estate and all stakeholders. In short, the Compensation Plans are reasonable and well within the Debtors’ business judgment.

  • Empirical Inference of Related Trading Between Two Securities: Detecting Pairs Trading, Merger Arbitrage, and Strategy Rules*
    Empirical inference of related trading between two securities: Detecting pairs trading, merger arbitrage, and strategy rules* Keith Godfrey The University of Western Australia Working paper: 5 September 2013 The traditional approach to studying pairs trading is to simulate profitability using ex-post historical prices. I study the actual trades reported anonymously in security pairs and build statistical inferences of related trading. The approach is based on the time differences between trades. It can distinguish intrinsically related securities from pseudo-random sets, find stocks involved in merger arbitrage in massive sets of paired index constituents, and infer dominant trading rules of mean reversion algorithms. Empirical inference of related trading can enable further studies into pairs trading, strategy rules, merger arbitrage, and insider trading. Keywords: Inferred trading, empirical inference, pairs trading, merger arbitrage. JEL Classification Codes: G00, G10, C10, C40, C60 The availability of intraday trading or “tick” data with time resolution of a millisecond or finer is opening many avenues of research into financial markets. Analysis of two or more streams of tick data concurrently is becoming increasingly important in the study of multiple-security trading including index tracking, pairs trading, merger arbitrage, and market-neutral strategies. One of the greatest challenges in empirical trading research is the anonymity of reported trades. Securities exchanges report the dates, times, prices, and volumes traded, without identifying the traders. In studies of a single security, this introduces uncertainty of whether each market order that caused a trade was the buy or sell order, and there are documented approaches of inference such as Lee and Ready (1991).

  • Preparing for Carbon Pricing: Case Studies from Company Experience
    TECHNICAL NOTE 9 | JANUARY 2015 Preparing for Carbon Pricing Case Studies from Company Experience: Royal Dutch Shell, Rio Tinto, and Pacific Gas and Electric Company Acknowledgments and Methodology This Technical Note was prepared for the PMR Secretariat by Janet Peace, Tim Juliani, Anthony Mansell, and Jason Ye (Center for Climate and Energy Solutions—C2ES), with input and supervision from Pierre Guigon and Sarah Moyer (PMR Secretariat). The note comprises case studies with three companies: Royal Dutch Shell, Rio Tinto, and Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E). All three have operated in jurisdictions where carbon emissions are regulated. This note captures their experiences and lessons learned preparing for and operating under policies that price carbon emissions. The following information sources were used during the research for these case studies: 1. Interviews conducted between February and October 2014 with current and former employees who had first-hand knowledge of these companies’ activities related to preparing for and operating under carbon pricing regulation. 2. Publicly available resources, including corporate sustainability reports, annual reports, and Carbon Disclosure Project responses. 3. Internal company review of the draft case studies. 4. C2ES’s history of engagement with corporations on carbon pricing policies. Early insights from this research were presented at a business-government dialogue co-hosted by the PMR, the International Finance Corporation, and the Business-PMR of the International Emissions Trading Association (IETA) in Cologne, Germany, in May 2014. Feedback from that event has also been incorporated into the final version. We would like to acknowledge experts at Royal Dutch Shell, Rio Tinto, and Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E)—among whom Laurel Green, David Hone, Sue Lacey and Neil Marshman—for their collaboration and for sharing insights during the preparation of the report.
