Following the sale of a number of non-core vessels which are earmarked for disposal from the fleet, MMA’s ongoing focus will be on a core fleet of approximately 30 high quality, specialised vessels with an average age of five years. MMA’s fleet is capable of undertaking a range of offshore marine activities including: • FPSO offtake support; • Supply operations – drilling and production; • Construction support; • Survey support; • Dive and ROV support; • Subsea installation support; • Subsea inspection, maintenance and repair; and • Tug and barge operations. MMA’s combination of offshore vessels, technical marine expertise and strategically located onshore facilities enables us to differentiate ourselves from our competitors by providing innovative, fit for purpose vessel solutions to the industry. This includes collaborating with clients on specialised vessel designs, vessel conversions and modification projects to meet their unique project requirements. MMA also has a strong capability in project managing larger marine logistics projects, supplementing its owned fleet with chartered vessels as required. MMA can leverage its land based facilities in South East Asia as staging and project preparation facilities to service these projects. MMA prides itself on the quality, safety and reliability of its operations which are critical to success in the offshore industry. Singapore Oil & Gas Support Facility MMA’s Singapore Facility includes a 2.5 hectare site with 130 metres of water frontage, making it an ideal facility for vessel modification projects, mobilisation and demobilisation scopes and as a staging area for offshore projects. Batam Shipyard Facility MMA’s Batam Shipyard includes an 18.1 hectare yard site, fabrication and construction areas and warehouse storage facilities. The facility was previously used to build customised offshore support vessels and is now used as a layup facility for MMA and third party vessels and as a multi-user storage, staging and project preparation facility. Dampier Slipway The Dampier Slipway facility is located adjacent to the North West Shelf oil and gas region in Western Australia. The Slipway provides routine and emergency dockings, mobilisations and a wide range of marine repairs and maintenance services to MMA’s vessels and third party operators. Following the sale of MMA’s Dampier Supply Base and Slipway assets in June 2017, MMA now operates the Dampier Slipway under a licence agreement.

The oil market appears to be rebalancing and we have seen global inventories begin to reduce in recent months. However, we expect to see ongoing volatility for some time as various supply and demand factors impact the market. Global Exploration and Production (“E&P”) expenditure, which has been drastically cut over the past three years, is insufficient to offset reserve depletion and meet future demand growth. The International Energy Agency (“IEA”) recently forecast a global supply shortage by 2020 if underinvestment continues. Recent data indicates that oil company capital expenditure has begun to increase which is a positive sign. The offshore vessel market remains challenging, however there are early signs of increased activity at the front end of the value chain which point to a future increase in vessel activity. The large overhang of vessels in the market will continue to temper a recovery in the short term, however the significant reactivation costs associated with bringing vessels back into service means that many of the older vessels which are currently cold stacked will not return to service, eliminating some of the oversupply. It will take some time for the vessel market to come back into balance with utilisation needing to increase significantly before we see any increase in rates, however the early signs are encouraging for a market recovery. MMA’s strategy during the downturn has been to streamline the business to reduce costs, repay debt and focus on the market segments where MMA can generate the most value over time. MMA’s decision to dispose of its Australian Supply Base assets during the year was a key part of that strategy. The proceeds from the sale were used to reduce debt. MMA is also in the process of rationalising a number of non- core vessels from its fleet. The vessels selected for disposal are typically older and more commoditised vessels which are outside of MMA’s future strategic focus. MMA sold 11 vessels during the year and intends to reduce the fleet by a further 10 vessels. The strategy has been successful in reducing holding costs and overheads and improving cash flow. Following the completion of the sales programme, MMA’s core owned fleet will comprise of approximately 30 high quality, high specification vessels with an average age of five years. These vessels will compete at the more specialised end of the market, where MMA believes it can generate the best return from its assets. MMA reviewed the carrying value of its assets as at 31 December 2016 and again on 30 June 2017 and recognised a non-cash impairment charge of $312.2 million for the year. The impairment charge comprised of a $287.5 million charge against the vessel fleet (including $139.5 million against the non-core vessels held for sale) and a $24.7 million charge against the Dampier Supply Base and Slipway assets. MMA’s Net Tangible Assets as at 30 June 2017 was 69 cents per share including the impact of the impairment charge. Excluding the impact of the impairment charge, MMA delivered EBITDA of $21.7 million and a Net Loss after Tax of $(65.8) million. The Reported Loss for the Year was $(378.0) million after the impairment charge. Whilst a disappointing overall result, EBITDA was in line with our expectations and market guidance. Notwithstanding MMA’s reduced earnings profile in the current environment, MMA continues to have the support of its Banking Syndicate. In February 2017, the Syndicate agreed to a number of amendments to the terms of the Company’s Debt Facility including a reduced level of amortisation and an extension of the facility term. Previously required amortisation payments of $75 million per annum were replaced by a single principal repayment of $45 million, which was made prior to 30 June 2017. MMA has committed to applying the proceeds from the sale of any non- core vessels to debt reduction but has no further compulsory amortisation payments until the expiry date of the Facility on 30 September 2019. MMA made total principal repayments of $67.3 million during FY2017, reducing the balance of the Facility to $324.2 million by the end of the financial year. MMA continues to closely engage with its Banking Syndicate and is committed to reducing its debt to a sustainable level over the medium term. As part of its ongoing Balance Sheet management strategy, MMA has recently engaged advisors to undertake a strategic review of the Company’s financial and industrial strategy including optimising the Company’s longer term funding structure. MMA continues to focus on its cost reduction programme in light of the current market conditions. Significant reductions in overhead and operating costs have been achieved over the past three years through a range of initiatives. Headcount has reduced by over 50% and employment costs have also been materially reduced with base salaries frozen since 1 July 2014 and no bonus payments made for the past three years. In light of the ongoing poor operating conditions being faced by the Company, the MMA Board of Directors and members of the Senior Executive Team also recently resolved to reduce their remuneration by at least 10% effective from 1 July 2017. Operationally, MMA continues to perform very well. We continue to differentiate ourselves from our competitors through our operational excellence, technical expertise and our ability to collaborate with our clients to deliver innovative and cost effective marine solutions. MMA’s vessels were active on a range of long term and short term projects during the year in our key regions of Australia, the Middle East, South East Asia and Africa. We continue to focus on increasing our presence in the Middle East, and view this region as key to our future strategy. Our newbuild programme completed during the year with the final two vessels, the MMA Pinnacle and MMA Prestige delivered into the fleet and contributing to earnings during the second half. We have seen ongoing demand for these vessels in the IMR market which is pleasing. MMA’s Batam Shipyard has been decommissioned as a shipbuilding facility and is now used predominantly as a cost effective storage facility for MMA and third party vessels. The facility is also being marketed as a staging and storage facility for marine logistic projects. MMA’s capital expenditure requirements will be minimal going forward, significantly reducing the impact on the Company’s forward cash flow. I am pleased to say that MMA continued to demonstrate a world class safety performance during the year. MMA’s Total Recordable Case Frequency for the year was 0.95 per million hours worked, slightly up on last year but an excellent performance in comparison to the industry average and an 80% improvement over the past five years. MMA is committed to continuously improving its systems, processes and overall safety culture, through its Target 365 programme, which is now firmly embedded throughout the organisation. MMA was recently appointed as the Asia Pacific representative on the International Marine Contractors Association (“IMCA”) Global HSSE Committee, an endorsement of MMA’s commitment and leadership in this area. We view our safety performance as our licence to operate and something that can differentiate us in this highly competitive market. It is also a key value of the Company that we look after the safety and welfare of our employees and we will remain focused on maintaining and improving our performance in this area. Whilst FY2017 was another very challenging year for MMA, there is a significant change in market sentiment from the position this time last year. The growing industry consensus is that the market has now bottomed and whilst there is still uncertainty about the shape and timing of the recovery, the early signs are certainly encouraging. FY2018 is expected to remain subdued in terms of rates and utilisation until the oversupply of vessels is absorbed, however, conditions in the medium term are expected to improve. I would like to conclude by thanking Mr Jeff Weber our Managing Director, and all management and staff for their commitment and dedication to the business through what has been one of the worst downturns the offshore market has ever seen. I would also like to sincerely thank my fellow Directors for their valuable contribution and stewardship over the past year. Finally, I would like to thank you, our shareholders, for your ongoing support.

The pre-impairment reported EBIT and NPAT are unaudited but are derived from audited accounts by removing the impact of the impairment charge from the reported IFRS audited results. MMA believes the non-IFRS disclosures reflect a more meaningful measure of the Company’s underlying performance. be challenging during FY2017, performance of our Vessels although sentiment is improving business The offshore oil and gas support industry continued to face enormous challenges during FY2017. Unprecedented low levels of investment by oil companies continued to impact demand for offshore vessels. Global E&P spend has reduced by 50% or US$1 trillion since 2013. The impact on the offshore vessel market has been severe with global fleet utilisation of just over 50%, low day rates and over 30% of the global fleet laid up. On a positive note, sentiment has improved and the general industry consensus is that the market has now bottomed. We are starting to see signs of a recovery with seismic and jack up rig activity beginning to increase, which should translate to increased demand for offshore vessels. It will however, take some time to absorb the current overcapacity in the market before we will see any improvement in rates. Vessel operations revenue for the year was $221.8 million, down from $414.7 million in FY2017 and EBITDA was $24.8 million, down from $64.8 million. Second half performance was better than first half as newbuild vessels began to contribute to earnings, a number of project scopes were extended and holding costs on underutilised vessels reduced, as vessels were sold. Australian operations contributed revenue of $149.3 million during FY2017, down from $323.6 million in FY2016 and international operations contributed revenue of $72.5 million, down from $91.1 million. Activity in Australia was sound with a number of key long term production support contracts continuing through the downturn as well as some commissioning and decommissioning project work being undertaken during the year. The international offshore vessel market continued to be extremely challenging with intense competition for available work and historically low rates and utilisation. During the year, MMA made a strategic decision to aggressively dispose of approximately 20 non-core vessels from the fleet. These vessels are of an age and class that is outside of MMA’s core strategic focus going forward and whilst asset values are currently depressed, the savings in holding costs and associated overheads on these underutilised vessels made a compelling case for disposal. The vessels have been classified as held for sale in the accounts and an impairment charge of $129.5 million was recorded against the value of these assets reflective of the expected selling price to be achieved. MMA has completed approximately 50% of the targeted sales and is seeing active interest in the remaining vessels. MMA’s longer term strategic focus is on a core owned fleet of approximately 30 high quality, non-commoditised vessels with a current average age profile of five years. 6 Annual Report 2017 MMA Offshore Limited 7 Overview Operating & Financial Review Governance 2017 Financial Report Newbuild programme completed Cost reduction programme with two new IMR vessels delivering results contributing to earnings in the second half MMA’s newbuild programme is complete with the final two vessels, the MMA Prestige and MMA Pinnacle, delivered during the year and contributing to second half earnings. Following completion of the newbuild programme, MMA’s capital expenditure requirements will be minimal going forward as expenditure is reduced to a maintenance level. At this point MMA does not anticipate building any further vessels for the fleet in the near future unless backed by long term contracts. MMA’s Batam shipyard has ceased shipbuilding activities and is currently being utilised as a layup facility for MMA and third party vessels, as well as being marketed as a multi-user storage, staging and project preparation facility. Strategic decision to dispose of Australian Supply Bases and Slipway assets During the 2017 financial year, MMA made the strategic decision to dispose of its Australian Supply Bases and Slipway assets to focus on its core offshore vessels business. The assets were sold to Toll Group for net sale proceeds of $49.5 million with the proceeds from the sale used to amortise debt. MMA will continue to operate the Slipway under a licence arrangement through FY2018 with an option to extend through to 30 June 2019. The Slipway will form part of the Vessels operating segment going forward. The operational transition has been smooth with no impact on MMA’s Australian vessel operations. MMA will continue to manage its Australian vessel operations from a regional office at the Dampier Supply Base. MMA is focused on sustainably reducing costs in all areas of the business whilst maintaining the high safety and operating standards which are critical to success in the offshore industry. Significant costs have been taken out of the business over the past three years with corporate and operating overheads set to reduce by 40% between FY2015 and FY2018 (excluding reductions relating to the Supply Base sale). Headcount across the business has reduced by over 50% (excluding reductions relating to Supply Base, Shipyards and vessel crew). There have been material reductions in overall salary packages with no base salary increases or bonus payments for the past three years. In addition, the Board of Directors and members of the Senior Executive team have taken a reduction in fixed remuneration of at least 10%, effective from 1 July 2017. In addition to overhead savings, MMA has also significantly reduced direct operating costs through supplier negotiations, business efficiency and general cost control across the organisation. MMA also has an active layup programme for vessels in between contracts utilising our land based facilities. This has significantly reduced holding costs on underutilised vessels. A culture of cost management has been instilled throughout the business with a focus on minimising all discretionary expenditure whilst being mindful to ensure that cost savings are not made at the expense of the quality, reliability and safety of our operations. The focus on costs is ongoing and will continue through FY2018. Further asset impairment charge recognised As at 30 June 2017, MMA recognised a non-cash impairment charge of $312.2 million against the carrying value of its assets reflecting the impact of the current market conditions on the Company’s operations and asset values. A charge of $287.5 million was booked against the carrying value of the Vessel fleet (including $139.5 million against the non-core vessels held for sale), as well as a $22.3 million charge against the Dampier Supply Base and a $2.3 million charge against the Dampier Slipway. MMA’s Net Tangible Assets (“NTA”) as at 30 June 2017 was $0.69 per share, post the impairment charge. Ongoing Balance Sheet management Notwithstanding the current trading environment, MMA’s Banking Syndicate remain supportive. In February 2017, the Syndicate agreed a number of amendments to terms of the Company’s loan facilities to assist it to trade through the current difficult market conditions. Previous scheduled amortisation payments of A$75 million per annum were replaced by a single principal repayment of A$45 million which was made prior to 30 June 2017 from the proceeds of the Supply Base sale. No further compulsory amortisation is required until the expiry date of the Facility which has been extended to 30 September 2019. In addition to the A$45 million amortisation payment made in June 2017, MMA applied the proceeds from the sale of its share of the Broome Supply Base to debt reduction and has also committed to applying any proceeds from non-core vessel sales to reducing the facility balance. MMA has recently engaged advisors to undertake a strategic review of the Company. The review is focused on an assessment of the Company’s financial and operational strategy, including optimising the Company’s longer term funding structure. MMA’s cash at bank as at 30 June 2017 was $28.8 million and gearing has increased to 111.4% following the impairment charge. Cash at bank includes $10.2 million held in Escrow under the terms of MMA’s Syndicated Loan Facility. Continued to achieve excellence Refined strategy focused on core Market Outlook in safety culture and performance vessel operations The past three years have seen the offshore vessel industry go through one of the worst downturns in history. Sentiment has, however, recently improved and there are early signs of increased tendering, jack up rig fixing and seismic activity which is promising. There is a growing consensus that the market has now bottomed. E&P spending, which has been drastically cut in recent years, needs to increase significantly to offset reserve depletion and to meet future demand growth and there are some early indications that project sanctioning is beginning to pick up. The oversupply of offshore vessels in the market remains an issue, although the consensus is that a large proportion of the global fleet which is currently cold stacked will never return to service which will eliminate some of the supply overhang. It will take some time for the vessel market to come into the balance with utilisation needing to increase significantly before we see any increase in rates. However, the early signs are positive for a market recovery. With the full year contribution from new vessels and the impact of our cost reduction programmes, we expect a modest improvement in EBITDA from continuing operations in FY2018. Jeff Weber Managing Director MMA continued to achieve excellence in its safety culture and performance. The Company’s Total Recordable Case Frequency (“TRCF”) for FY2017 was 0.95, up slightly on FY2016 but a world class safety performance compared to our industry peers. MMA’s Target 365 Strategy continues to evolve and produce sustainable improvements in safety performance and culture throughout the organisation. MMA continues to focus on improving its systems and processes. During the year, the Company achieved a major milestone, moving to a single certified global marine safety management system, down from three previously. MMA has also recently been appointed as the representative for the Asia Pacific region on the International Marine Contractors Association (“IMCA”) Global HSSE Committee. MMA will continue to drive improvements in safety across the organisation with Target 365 at the core of its strategy. Our people remain critical to our success At MMA we recognise that our people are critical to the success of our business. MMA is fortunate to have a highly capable Senior Management Team who are committed to steering the Company through the current challenging market conditions. I would like to express my sincere thanks to the Senior Management Team and to all MMA staff for their valuable contribution to the business. MMA is also fortunate to have a highly experienced Board of Directors and I would like to take this opportunity to thank the Board for their ongoing stewardship and guidance throughout the year. As mentioned previously, MMA made the strategic decision to dispose of its Australian Supply Bases and Slipway during the year and to accelerate the sale of vessels that MMA no longer views as core to the business going forward. Following the sale of the remaining non-core vessels, MMA’s strategy will be highly focused and centred on a core fleet of approximately 30 high quality, specialised vessels where MMA can leverage its marine expertise to extract the most value from its assets. The core fleet will have an average age of five years which is very young by industry standards and will place MMA in a strong position to compete for more attractive contracts as the market improves. MMA has a strong project management capability and will continue to seek opportunities to project manage larger marine logistics projects, supplementing its owned fleet with chartered vessels as required. MMA’s land based facilities in South East Asia provide MMA with additional capability and resources to compete for these types of projects. Regionally, we continue to focus on maintaining operating scale in the key regions of Australia/New Zealand, the Middle East and South East Asia, with operations in Africa on the back of long term contracts. MMA continues to focus on growing our presence in the Middle East and we strengthened our Dubai office during the year with the appointment of a full time Technical Manager. The Middle East requires a high level of technical and operational expertise and is well suited to MMA’s skillset. The decision to dispose of non- core assets enables MMA to further streamline its operations through its cost reduction and business efficiency initiatives. 8 Annual Report 2017 MMA Offshore Limited 9 Overview Operating & Financial Review Governance 2017 Financial Report F i n a n c i a l P o s i t i o n N et Prof it /(Loss) A fte r Tax From C on ti nu ing Opera t ion s (Pre - impa irme nt ch arg e) $ (6 6.8 )m $39.9m $22.1m $16.5m The C ompany reported a net lo ss after tax for the 2 01 7 financial year from both continuing and The Company reported a net loss after tax from its continuing vessel operations during the year of $(354.3) million after booking an impairment charge against the carrying value of its vessel fleet of $287.5 million. discontinued operations Impairment Charge 13 14 15 16 17 of $ (3 78 .0) millio n $(16.4)m after boo king non-cash $(66.8)m impairment charg es of $3 12 .2 millio n agains t the carrying valu e o f the C ompany’s Vess el, Supply B as e and Slipway business es The Directors made a strategic decision during the year to dispose of the Company’s Supply Base and Slipway businesses in Dampier and its 50% investment in the Supply Base business in Broome and focus on the core offshore vessels business going forward. The Company completed the sale of its share in the Broome Supply Base business on 28 April 2017 and the Dampier Supply Base and Slipway businesses on 15 June 2017. The Company reported a net loss after tax from these businesses, which were reported as discontinued operations during the year, of $(23.7) million which included an impairment charge of $24.6 million. Following the decision to sell the Dampier Supply Base and Slipway businesses and the 50% share of the Broome Supply Base business, the Company assessed their carrying values against their expected net sale values. This resulted in an impairment charge of $22.3 million being booked against the carrying value of the Dampier Supply Base and an impairment charge of $2.3 million against the Slipway business. The Company also resolved during the year to dispose of a number of non-core vessels from its fleet. These vessels were classified as held for sale in the financial statements and their carrying values were reported at their expected net sale values which resulted in an impairment charge of $129.4 million being booked against these vessels. Going forward the Company will focus on operating its core fleet of approximately 30 high quality vessels. The Company continued to experience difficult trading conditions during the year due to the subdued oil price and an oversupply of vessels which has resulted in low demand and low charter rates for vessels. As a result, the Company again assessed the carrying value of the core fleet against its fair market value and recorded an impairment charge of $158.1 million for the 2017 financial year.

In addition, the Company received net proceeds of $76.0 million during the year from assets sales which included the sale of the Dampier Supply Base and Slipway businesses, its 50% share of the Broome Supply Base business and the sale of a number of non-core vessels in the fleet. The Company also received dividends of $9.1 million from the Broome Supply Base joint venture business. The Company applied $71.0 million toward refinancing costs and repayment of the outstanding balance of its debt facility. Capital Expenditure The capital expenditure for the year of $31.9 million was a significant reduction from the amount incurred in the previous year of $159.3 million. The major capital expenditure for the year was in relation to completing the construction of the two specialised Inspection Maintenance and Repair (“IMR”) vessels, MMA Prestige and MMA Pinnacle, which were being built at the Company’s Shipyard in Batam, Indonesia. Both vessels were completed during the first half of the financial year and contributed to earnings during the second half. The Company has now completed its newbuild programme and accordingly, the Company’s capital expenditure is expected to be significantly lower again in the coming year. $324.2m Dividends $179.6m 13 14 15 16 17 Due to the ongoing difficult trading conditions which the Company experienced during the year, the Company was again unable to pay a dividend for the 2017 financial year. In response to the ongoing difficult trading conditions that the Company was experiencing, in August 2016, the Company received approval for a number of further amendments to the terms and financial covenants of its Syndicated Term Loan Facility and committed to an increase in the annual principal repayments over the remaining term of the Facility to $75 million, payable in six month instalments of $37.5 million, with the first payment due on 31 December 2016. On 23 December 2016 the Syndicate agreed to defer the payment of the scheduled amortisation of $37.5 million which was due on 31 December to 31 March 2017. Subsequently, on 28 February 2017, the Company and the Syndicate members agreed to a number of further amendments to the Facility including replacing the previous scheduled amortisation payments with a principal repayment of $45 million to be paid on 30 June 2017 and the remaining balance of the Facility to be repaid at the termination date. The parties also agreed to extend the term of the Facility for a further six month period to 30 September 2019. The $45 million principal repayment at 30 June 2017 was funded primarily from the proceeds of the sale of the Company’s Dampier Supply Base and Slipway businesses. The Company also applied the proceeds received from the non-core vessels sales and the dividend and sale proceeds from the Broome Supply Base business toward prepayment of the remaining balance of the Facility. In accordance with the terms of the Facility, proceeds from the sale of the remaining non-core vessels will also be applied toward prepayment of the remaining balance of the Facility. The weighted average interest rate on the Facility at 30 June 2017 was 7.6%. Following the principal repayments during the year, the balance owing on the Facility had reduced to $324.2 million at 30 June 2017. N TA Pe r Sh are $ 0.6 9 $2.10 $1.95 $1.66 $1.70 Balance Sheet The Company continues to have a strong asset base comprising its core fleet of high quality vessels with an average age of five years. At 30 June 2017, the Company reported Total Assets of $632.7 million, Net Assets of $256.5 million and a Net Tangible Asset backing per share (“NTA”) of $0.69 per share. At 30 June 2017 the Company had cash reserves totalling $28.8 million. Included in this balance is a total of $10.2 million which is held in Escrow under the terms of the Company’s Syndicated Loan Facility.

Eff ective ly identifying and m ana ging risk is critical to M MA’s success MMA operates an enterprise risk management framework aligned to ISO 31000, the international standard for risk management. This section describes (in no order of significance) the material risks that have been identified and are being managed in order for the Company to deliver on its objectives. It is not intended to be all encompassing, nor is any of the information intended to be taken as a statement of fact. These risks can be affected by a variety of factors which can, in turn, impact the Company’s performance. Dependence on level of activity in the offshore oil and gas industry The Company is dependent on the level of activity in the offshore oil and gas industry in the markets in which the Company operates (currently Australia, South East Asia, the Middle East and Africa). The level of activity in the offshore oil and gas industry will be affected by prevailing and future oil and gas prices, economic growth, energy demand, the cost and availability of other energy sources and changes in energy technology and regulation. Any prolonged period of low offshore oil and gas activity (such as what is currently being experienced) will have an adverse impact on MMA’s business. The Company aims to mitigate the impact of lower offshore oil and gas activity by differentiating itself though innovation and operational excellence, by diversifying our contract portfolio across production, construction and exploration and by diversifying our geographic footprint across a number of key regional areas. Decreases in industry activity may also increase the risk of the Company failing to comply with the covenants associated with its Banking Facilities. In addition to the controls listed above, MMA seeks to manage this risk through proactively engaging with its lenders, through divesting non-core assets and through ongoing monitoring and review of the Company’s Balance Sheet strategy. Competition, vessel oversupply • and fleet composition misalignment with market demand Demand for MMA’s vessels is also affected by the number of vessels available in the market and the competitive landscape. In the current market, there is an oversupply of vessels and the corresponding increase in competition adversely impacts utilisation, rates and contract terms, thereby impacting MMA’s earnings. MMA seeks to manage this risk by having a clear strategic plan including an ongoing review of its asset mix and capability to meet market demand. MMA is in the process of disposing of a number of non-core vessels from the fleet which are commoditised in nature to focus on more technically sophisticated vessels where MMA can utilise its marine expertise to extract the most value out of its assets. MMA also has an active lay-up programme to minimise holding costs for vessels between contracts. These laid-up vessels are either cold or warm stacked to minimise costs predominantly at our land based facilities in Batam, Singapore and Australia. MMA’s strategy is to differentiate itself from its competitors through operational excellence, proactive and innovative solutions, long term customer relationships and responsive account management whilst remaining competitive on price. Operational risks The Company’s operations are subject to various risks inherent in servicing the offshore oil and gas industry. Our international operations broaden our risk exposure in terms of both opportunities and threats. Operational risks include (but are not limited to): • Health and safety incidents; • Loss of key customers/contracts; Failure by customers to pay for services contracted and/or performed; Geopolitical, government and regulatory factors Our international operations are subject to more challenging geopolitical climates to varying degrees. Changes in the geopolitical climate in our market areas, such as the outbreak or resolution of war, nationalisation of our customers’ oil and gas projects and changes to industry related legislation, protectionist measures and economic sanctions, may open up more advantageous areas to operate or could require us to discontinue operating in that area, leading to corresponding impacts on vessel and service utilisation. MMA’s strategic plan considers such risks and operationally we risk assess market areas and clients regularly to limit negative and optimise positive impacts. Industry news, experienced personnel and industry relationships are leveraged to ensure we base our decisions on up to date geopolitical information. Contingency plans for fast emerging geopolitical risks are used to limit business disruption. Foreign exchange The majority of MMA’s revenues are paid in either Australian or US Dollars and the Company’s operating costs are primarily denominated in a combination of Australian, Singaporean and US Dollars, providing a natural hedge for our activities. MMA also has a combination of Australian Dollar and US Dollar debt. Adverse movements in these currencies may result in a negative impact on MMA’s reported earnings. MMA’s treasury policy and contract management processes further mitigate this risk. The Board also considers from time to time whether to manage currency fluctuation risk through appropriate hedging. • Redeployment costs of assets that are unable to be used in their current geography for a period of time; • Equipment damage, technical failures or human error; • Industrial unrest; • Capsizing, sinking, grounding, collisions, fires and explosions, piracy, vessel seizures or arrests and acts of terrorism; • Environmental pollution/ contamination and other related accidents; • Regulatory and legislative non- compliance; Fraud and theft; Increases in input costs; Loss of key personnel; and • • • • Contractual assumptions of risk. Potential consequences associated with these risks include the loss of human life or serious injury, pollution, environmental damage, significant damage or loss to assets and equipment, business disruption, client dissatisfaction, damage to our reputation and legal and regulatory action, including fines. This could expose MMA to significant liabilities, a loss of utilisation, revenue and/or the incurrence of additional costs and therefore may have a materially adverse impact on the Company’s financial position and profitability. We employ a number of well executed controls to manage these risks, including, but not limited to, appropriate insurance coverage, hazard and risk management processes, quality audits, planned maintenance programmes, compliance programmes, tender and contract management processes, access to in-house and external legal expertise, industrial relations strategies, emergency preparedness and contingency plans, preferred supplier and subcontractor processes, counterparty risk assessments and a host of engineering and operational controls. 14 Annual Report 2017 MMA Offshore Limited 15 Overview Operating & Financial Review Governance 2017 Financial Report V e s s e l O p e r a t i o n s Ongoi ng poor market condit ions Financial overview Revenue down 46.5% EBITDA down 61.7% EBIT down 29.2% (pre-impairment) $287.5m vessel impairment charge conti nued to i mpact Operating overview the p erformance of Utilisation – average 52% our Vessels divi sion during FY2017 Rates remain at historically low levels across all regions and vessel segments Second INPEX vessel commenced on long term contract Newbuild IMR vessels contributed to second half earnings Non-core vessel sales programme progressing with a further 11 vessels sold during FY2017 Increased tendering activity Strategy Optimising the fleet to dispose of non- core/commoditised vessels and focus on more specialised vessels where MMA can add value through its technical and operational expertise Focus on key geographic regions of Australia/New Zealand, South East Asia, the Middle East and Africa Differentiation through innovative solutions, superior service, high quality and safe operations whilst remaining cost competitive Outlook Market sentiment improving Early signs of increase in activity at the front end of the value chain Challenging conditions expected to continue through FY2018 as oversupply in the market is absorbed, however the signs for a recovery are looking more positive Vess e l Utilisation 70% 66% 53% 50% 1H16 2H16 1H17 2H17 16 Annual Report 2017 Vessels Financials Revenue EBITDA EBITDA / Revenue Variance 30 Jun 2017 30 Jun 2016 46.5% 61.7% 4.4% $221.8m $414.7m $24.8m $64.8m 11.2% 15.6% EBIT (pre-impairment)1 29.2% -$19.9m -$15.4m EBIT / Revenue1 Segment Assets 5.3% -9.0% -3.7% 37.9% $582.0m $937.7m 1 EBIT is shown excluding the impact of the $287.5m impairment charge against vessel assets in FY2017 and $100m impairment charge in FY2016 Utilisation remained steady during the year at approximately 43%. This includes laid up vessels and vessels being marketed for sale. Excluding the non-core fleet, utilisation was significantly higher. South East Asia There was no improvement in utilisation or rates in the South East Asian market during the year. However, tendering activity has picked up significantly across the region and there has been a small increase in rig utilisation which could signify an upcoming improvement in market conditions for the offshore vessel industry. Oversupply remains an issue although with an increasing number of vessels going into layup, the number of available vessels in the market is reducing. MMA currently has 11 vessels working in South East Asia. The MMA Almighty continues on its long term production support with PTTEP in Thailand, however this contract will be retendered in FY2018. The remaining vessels are on shorter term contracts or operating in the spot market. The MMA Prestige and MMA Pinnacle, MMA’s newbuild IMR vessels, have been engaged in ongoing work for a variety of clients in the dive support market since their delivery into the fleet during FY2017 until recently. Currently the MMA Pinnacle is in northern Australia working with ROVs on board and the MMA Prestige is in the Middle East on a short term dive support campaign. Other vessels have been engaged in a range of shorter term contracts through Brunei, Myanmar, Malaysia, Thailand and India. Australia Production support is a key focus of MMA’s Australian business now that the major LNG projects have moved beyond the main construction phase. MMA continues to service the majority of the oil production facilities on the North West Shelf on term contracts and vessel sharing arrangements. MMA also has three vessels operating out of Darwin including the MMA Plover and MMA Brewster which are on a five year plus options contract supporting INPEX’s Ichthys LNG Project. In addition, the MMA Inscription is on a five year contract supporting ConocoPhillips’ Bayu-Undan Project in the Timor Sea. These are key contracts for MMA providing full utilisation for the vessels for the term of the contracts. In terms of project work, MMA managed a fleet of 13 vessels for Technip Oceania for the Shell Prelude Subsea Installation Project during the first half of FY2017. Five tugs (three owned by MMA) and five barges were mobilised in South East Asia and prepared for arrival in Australia. Upon arrival in Australia, the barges were loaded with subsea pipeline spools which were delivered to the Prelude site north west of Broome. Two MMA tugs acted as infield support vessels to berth the barges alongside the construction vessel and one MMA PSV conducted supply operations from Broome to the Prelude site. This was the third campaign in which MMA had provided vessel support to Technip Oceania for the Prelude Project. MMA also had three vessels engaged in supporting Chevron’s Thevenard Island Abandonment Project during the second half of the year with activity continuing into the first quarter of FY2018. The vessel sharing arrangements that MMA implemented in FY2016 have been working well with three vessels currently being shared by six clients. The arrangement is mutually beneficial for all parties, reducing operating costs for the oil companies whilst increasing utilisation of MMA’s fleet. Exploration activity in Australia continues to be subdued with the rig count in Australia at historically low levels. We did however, see an increase in seismic activity during the year with the Mermaid Searcher supporting two seismic scopes during the second half. This is a positive sign for future exploration activity in the region. MMA currently has 15 vessels working in Australia with six on term contracts and the remainder positioned for spot work in the region. MMA continues to have a layup strategy in place to minimise operating costs in between contracts for vessels which are not working. The vessels are either shut down in safe anchorage and monitored, kept on the Slipway or transferred to our facilities in South East Asia. During the year we concluded the negotiations for new four year Enterprise Bargaining Agreements for our marine personnel. A sustainable outcome was achieved for MMA’s employees, the Company and the industry and the agreement was reached without experiencing any lost time due to protected industrial action. Looking ahead, Australia will remain a key market for MMA. MMA will focus on servicing its existing production support contracts in Australia and we continue to tender for new opportunities for both short and long term contracts as they arise. A number of scopes are currently being tendered for construction projects in 2018 including Woodside’s Greater Western Flank Phase 2 Development and Woodside’s Greater Enfield Project. Overall, we expect market activity to remain relatively stable at current levels in Australia. International Internationally, market conditions remained challenging across MMA’s operating regions of South East Asia, the Middle East and Africa. The ongoing oversupply of vessels in the market means that competition is intense, keeping rates at close to breakeven levels. MMA Offshore Limited 17 Overview Operating & Financial Review Governance 2017 Financial Report Vessel Sales Programme MMA’s vessel sales programme to optimise the fleet composition and reduce debt has been ongoing since FY2016. During FY2017, MMA made the decision to accelerate the sale of a number of non-core vessels to reduce holding costs, interest and overhead costs and to improve cash flow. The programme has been successful with 11 vessels sold during FY2017 and two further vessels sold in the 2018 financial year to date. Since FY2016, 28 non-core vessels have been sold for a total consideration of A$68 million. A further 10 vessels have been earmarked for sale with one of these vessels currently under contract. Following the completion of the sales programme, MMA will retain a core fleet of approximately 30 high quality, high specification vessels with an average age of five years. Proceeds from the sale of non-core vessels will be used to fund debt reduction. Whilst not active in the African spot market, MMA will transfer vessels into this market on the back of longer term contracts. Whilst market activity in West Africa remains subdued, longer term prospects for East Africa remain very promising after the sanctioning in June 2017 by ENI of its Coral South FLNG project in offshore Mozambique. This marks the first such development in East Africa, an emerging frontier region with significant gas discoveries. Drilling, construction and installation contracts have been awarded and the project is targeting first LNG production in 2022. MMA will seek to leverage its experience in frontier LNG developments in Australia to support this project as it progresses. Newbuild Programme MMA’s newbuild programme is complete with the final two vessels, the MMA Prestige and MMA Pinnacle, delivered during the year. Following completion of the newbuild programme, MMA’s capital expenditure requirements will be minimal going forward as expenditure is reduced to a maintenance level. At this point MMA does not anticipate building any further vessels for the fleet in the near future unless backed by long term contracts. Middle East There continues to be strong levels of activity in the Middle East, predominantly driven by Saudi Aramco’s expansion activities in Saudi Arabia. Saudi Aramco has committed to spending over US$300 billion over the next 10 years, increasing demand for offshore support vessels. Vessel supply continues to increase, however, as operators mobilise vessels into the Middle East from other regions, rates have therefore declined significantly over the past two years. MMA currently has five vessels operating in the Middle East with three on long term contracts. Unfortunately one of the three vessels is currently off-hired to undergo repairs which impacted the financial contribution from this contract. The MMA Pride has been on continuous shorter term scopes with a key contractor in the region. MMA continues to view this region as a key platform in its future strategy and strengthened its Dubai office with the addition of a full time Technical Manager during the year. We are currently seeing very strong tendering activity out of the Middle East region, particularly Saudi Arabia as well as Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. The Middle East requires a high level of technical and operational expertise and is well suited to MMA’s skillset. MMA is focused on growing our presence in this region. Africa The African market continues to be plagued by an oversupply of vessels and limited work. During FY2016 MMA made the strategic decision to pull its spot vessels out of the African market. Currently we have one vessel, the MMA Privilege, on a longer term contract with a major marine contractor in Cote d’Ivoire. 18 Annual Report 2017 MMA’s ne wbuild programme is comp le te wi th the fina l t wo ve ssels delivered during the year.

MMA will continue to manage its Australian vessel operations from a regional office at the Dampier Supply Base. MMA also disposed of its 50% share in the Broome Supply Base joint venture to Toll Group in April 2017 for $8.7 million represented by a dividend distribution of $8.3 million and sale proceeds of $0.4 million. MMA’s 50% share of NPAT from the Broome Supply Base for the 2017 financial year up to the date of sale was $0.5 million, down from $2.6 million in FY2016. In June 2017, MMA disposed of its Dampier Supply Base and Dampier Slipway assets to Toll Group for net sale proceeds of $40.8 million. Proceeds from the sale were used to amortise debt. The Dampier Supply Base contributed revenue of $27.6 million and EBITDA of $3.7 million during the year, down 55.7% and 81.8% respectively on the previous financial year. The Dampier Slipway contributed revenue of $12.0 million and EBITDA of $0.7 million during the year, up from revenue of $9.8 million and an EBITDA loss of $(2.1) million in FY2016. MMA will continue to operate the Slipway under a licence arrangement through FY2018 with an option to extend through to 30 June 2019. The Slipway will form part of the Vessels operating segment going forward.

MMA’s Total Recordable Case Frequency “TRCF” for FY2017 was 0.95 per million hours worked, slightly up on FY2016 but an 80% improvement over the past five years and a world class safety performance compared to our industry peers. The IMCA average for 2017 was 1.8. MMA also tracks the number of ‘Perfect Days’ across its global operations with our Target being 365 perfect days each year. In FY2017, MMA achieved 310 Perfect Days across the whole organisation, equating to an overall percentage of 85%, consistent with the previous reporting period. MMA continues to encourage an open reporting culture and is now including measures relating to asset reliability in its Target 365 reporting. As part of our continuous improvement culture, we have implemented a number of initiatives during the year, including: • A comprehensive internal assurance programme targeted at verifying that controls are in place and sufficient to prevent incidents, thus maintaining our licence to operate; • Continuing to embed our Target 365 Critical Controls into all operations and verify their effectiveness; and • Improving our management systems to ensure efficient and effective global operations. MMA supports industry HSEQ forums by openly sharing lessons learned and through active involvement in events and forums across our global operations. MMA has also recently been appointed to the International Marine Contractors Association (“IMCA”) Global HSSE Committee as the representative for the Asia Pacific region.

MMA continues to undertake a programme of environmental monitoring and reporting in compliance with our onshore environmental licences. The sale of the Dampier Supply Base required the transfer of Ministerial Statement 535 to the new owner. MMA continues to operate in compliance with its environmental licence for boat building and maintenance activities (Licence L4996/1993/8) at our Slipway. MMA maintained certification for its quality systems accreditation (AS/ NZS ISO 9001: 2008) across its global operations during the reporting period and OHSAS 18001: 2007 and ISO 14001: 2015 in our international operations. MMA continues to improve its systems and processes to ensure that they reduce risk and are operationally efficient. In FY2017 we achieved a major milestone, moving to a single global marine safety management system, down from three separate systems previously. We also achieved third party certification of the new system across all of our global operations. MMA believes that visible senior management commitment is fundamental to achieving our Target 365 vision and a positive HSE culture. In FY2017, we implemented the Target 365 Senior Management Engagement programme. Each shore based senior manager is encouraged to engage with the workforce by being actively involved in applying our safety management systems with crews and staff. Targets are set and senior management engagements are tracked to ensure we maintain a consistent and quality management presence in the field. In FY2017 we achieved hundreds of formal senior management engagements and received positive feedback from crews and staff, which has set the foundation for us to continue the programme into FY2018.

MMA continued with its commitment to in-house training activities during the year, with several new training programmes developed to meet specific needs or risks within the business. MMA’s workforce planning principles continue to be based on a dynamic model that plans for the right person, to be in the right job, with the right skills, at the right time. Throughout the year, 1,093 employees completed 3,968 individual training programmes. Of these, 78% were developed in-house and completed via MMA’s online learning environment. During FY2017, we concluded the negotiations for new four year Enterprise Agreements for our Australian marine personnel. A sustainable outcome was achieved for MMA’s employees, the Company, our clients and the industry. The agreement was reached without experiencing any lost time due to protected industrial action. Additionally, FY2017 saw refinement of MMA’s resource planning and utilisation analysis tools, which has enabled the business to optimise the scheduling of our offshore employees. Training and Development MMA is committed to the development of our people through performance feedback, internal development opportunities and training programmes. MMA continues to focus on providing our people with the right skills so that they can perform their roles safely and competently. Diversity As a business with a global focus, MMA aims to have a workforce that best represents the communities in which we operate. MMA’s employees are made up of 20 different nationalities, with 652 of our people coming from non-English speaking backgrounds. In terms of gender diversity, MMA’s target for FY2017 was for women to hold at least 10% of senior executive positions (16.7% currently) and at least 30% of senior management roles (28.2% currently). Targeted employment opportunities for Indigenous Australians and women in non-traditional seafaring roles have also increased throughout the year. % Of Wome n Employed Russian Federa tio n Mya nmar Tha ila nd Ukraine Ma la ysia Singapore 9 13 19 32 72 77 42.8(1) 34.7(1) Philip pines 88 Indonesia 151 30.0 28.2 20.0 16.7 16.7 14.3 16 17 16 17 16 17 16 17 India 178 Total Organisation Board of Directors Executive Management Senior Management 1 The company considers that it is more accurate to report its diversity statistics excluding seafarers as seafaring is not generally a profession that women chose.

MMA also participates in locally based industry network groups as a means of achieving greater interaction with local stakeholders. Procurement Local content is embedded in our approach to the procurement of goods and services and MMA is committed to developing new capabilities in the communities in which we operate. MMA aims to procure at least 80% of its operational spend through localised supply and service agreements. Typically, we identify opportunities where local providers have the ability to directly service MMA’s requirements and where this is not possible, we work with counterparties to develop these offerings. MMA continued to make considerable gains in its engagement with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander (“ATSI”) businesses over the past 12 months. MMA’s overall spend with ATSI enterprises since the inception of business engagement in FY2015 is just over $5.5 million. In FY2017 MMA’s spend surpassed $1.6 million. The range of products and services supplied by ATSI businesses includes waste management services, office supplies, personal protective equipment, lifting and rigging equipment and consumables, victualling supplies, facilities maintenance, graphic design, payroll and recruitment services. MMA is proud to be a leader in this area. Employment With vessel activity in the Timor Sea, MMA’s Maritime Cadet Programme in Timor-Leste continues to provide a marine career pathway for Timorese nationals. The first STCW-rated cadet graduated in early 2017 from Akademi Laut Malaysia. A second cadet is expected to graduate in October 2017. Graduates will enter our international fleet to gain valuable sea time and ongoing positions, adding real value to our operations and leading the way to marine careers for their Timorese peers. MMA’s ATSI Traineeship programme is providing marine careers to ATSI people in Northern Australia. With three vessels operating from Darwin, ATSI communities are a key stakeholder in our operations. In the last 12 months, two ATSI trainees completed formal qualifications. One successfully completed a Certificate III in Maritime Operations (Integrated Rating) at South Metropolitan TAFE. This trainee has progressed to sea time in order to gain eligibility for an Integrated Rating Certificate of Proficiency. The second ATSI Trainee completed their Certificate of Safety Training in May 2017 and is progressing to a Certificate III in Maritime Operations (Integrated Rating). Sponsorship As part of MMA’s Target 365 rewards programme, business units provided donations to a range of charities including the Prostate Cancer Foundation (Australia), Alzheimer’s Australia (Australia), Care Corner (Singapore) and Legacy (Australia) in 2017. MMA recognises that supporting community endeavours, either in kind or monetarily, is a responsibility we have to the communities in which we operate. We look forward to continuing our corporate citizenship in 2018. Industry Networking MMA continues its support of the Local Contracting Alliance (“LCA”), which assists businesses in achieving their local content targets. Specifically aligned to ATSI business engagement, the LCA is reporting strong success in facilitating collaboration between Indigenous and non-Indigenous enterprises. MMA is now a member of the Petroleum Club NT. Membership provides an important network with NT local vendors and industry. In May 2017, MMA sponsored the Petroleum Club’s Industry Networking Session and MMA’s Fleet Operations General Manager was a keynote speaker at the event. 24 Annual Report 2017 MMA Offshore Limited 25 Overview Operating & Financial Review Governance 2017 Financial Report B o a r d o f D i r e c t o r s Mr Anthony (Tony) John Howarth AO Mr Jeffrey Andrew Weber Mr Mark Francis Bradley Mr Hugh Andrew Jon (Andrew) Ms Eva Alexandra (Eve) Howell Mr Chiang Gnee Heng Chairman – Appointed 1 August 2006 Managing Director – Appointed 31 December 2002 Jeff began his career as a Marine Engineer with BHP Transport.

The relevant contract of insurance prohibits disclosure of the nature of the liability and the amount of the premium. The Company’s Constitution requires the Company, so far as permitted under applicable law and to the extent the person is not otherwise indemnified, to indemnify each officer of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, and may indemnify its auditors, against a liability incurred as such an officer or auditor to any person (other than the Company or a related body corporate) including a liability incurred as a result of appointment or nomination by the Company or subsidiary as trustee or as an officer of another corporation, unless the liability arises out of conduct involving a lack of good faith. The Company has entered into Deeds of Indemnity, Insurance and Access with each of the Directors of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries in terms of the indemnity provided under the Company’s Constitution. The Company has not otherwise, during or since the end of the financial year, except to the extent permitted by law, indemnified or agreed to indemnify an officer or auditor of the Company or of any related body corporate against any liability incurred in acting in their capacity as such an officer of the Company. No indemnity payment has been made under any of the documents referred to above during or since the end of the financial year. Indemnification of Auditors The Company’s auditor is Deloitte. The Company has agreed with Deloitte, as part of its terms of engagement, to indemnify Deloitte against certain liabilities to third parties arising from the audit engagement.

Proceedings on Behalf of the Company No proceedings have been brought on behalf of the Company, nor has any application been made in respect of the Company under section 237 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). Non-Audit Services Details of the amounts paid or payable to the external auditor for non-audit services provided during the year are outlined in note 5.5 to the Financial Statements. During the year, the Company paid Deloitte the sum of $407,758 for the provision of non-audit services (being extensive debt restructuring advice and tax compliance services) and the sum of $598,898 for the provision of audit services. Despite this, the Directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services during the year by the external auditor (or by another person or firm on the auditor’s behalf) is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). In view of the above, the Directors are of the opinion that the services as disclosed in note 5.5 to the Financial Statements do not compromise the external auditor’s independence, based on advice received from the Audit and Risk Committee, for the following reasons: • All non-audit services have been reviewed and approved to ensure that they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of the auditor; and • None of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 ‘Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants’ issued by the Accounting Professional & Ethical Standards Board, including reviewing or auditing the auditor’s own work, acting in a management or decision making capacity for the Company, acting as an advocate for the Company or jointly sharing economic risks and rewards. Auditor’s Independence Declaration The Auditor’s Independence Declaration is included on page 48 of this Annual Report. Rounding Off of Amounts The Company is a company of the kind referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financials/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191, dated 24 March 2016, and in accordance with that Corporations Instrument, amounts in the Directors’ Report and the Financial Statements are rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars, unless otherwise indicated. 36 Annual Report 2017 MMA Offshore Limited 37 2017 Financial ReportOverviewOperating & Financial ReviewGovernanceRemuneration Report Key Remuneration Outcomes This Remuneration Report, which forms part of the Directors’ Report, sets out information about the remuneration of the Company’s key management personnel for the financial year ended 30 June 2017. The term ‘key management personnel’ refers to those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the consolidated entity, either directly or indirectly, including any Director (whether executive or otherwise) of the consolidated entity. The prescribed details for each person covered by this Remuneration Report are detailed below under the following headings: • Key Management Personnel; • Remuneration Policy; • Relationship between the Remuneration Policy and Company Performance; • Remuneration of Key Management Personnel; and • Key Terms of Employment Contracts.

Remuneration Policy The Nomination and Remuneration Committee is delegated responsibility by the Board for reviewing the remuneration packages of all Directors and key management personnel on an annual basis and making recommendations to the Board in this regard. The specific responsibilities of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee are set out in the Committee’s Charter, which is to be found under Appendix C of the Board Charter. Remuneration packages are typically reviewed and determined with due regard to current market rates and are benchmarked against comparable industry salaries and are adjusted to reflect changes in the performance of the Company. Given current financial constraints, the Nomination and Remuneration Committee carried out an internal review of the remuneration packages of the Managing Director and non-director key management personnel for the 2017 financial year, without engaging the services of an independent remuneration consultant. The Board is satisfied that the remuneration recommendations made by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee were free from undue influence by any member of the key management personnel to whom the recommendations relate. Having regard to the overall performance of the Company during the 2017 financial year and current market conditions, the key remuneration outcomes for the Company’s key management personnel in 2017 were as follows: Fixed Annual Remuneration (FAR) • The Board froze the FAR component for the Managing Director and other key management personnel for the 2017 financial year; and • The Managing Director, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer have agreed to a 10% decrease in FAR for the 2018 financial year. For the remaining key management personnel, FAR has again been frozen for the 2018 financial year. Short-term Incentive (STI) • The Board suspended the STI component in relation to the Managing Director and other key management personnel for the 2017 financial year and once again for the 2018 financial year. Long-term Incentive (LTI) • The Board suspended the LTI component in relation to the Managing Director and other key management personnel for the 2017 financial year and once again for the 2018 financial year. Remuneration Report 2016 MMA Offshore Limited’s Remuneration Report for 2016 was adopted at the Annual General Meeting on 24 November 2016 with a clear majority of 46,705,661 votes in favour of the motion (representing 84% of the votes received). Non-Executive Directors’ Remuneration Non-Executive Directors’ fees are determined within an aggregate Directors’ fee pool which is periodically recommended for approval by shareholders. The maximum fees payable to Non-Executive Directors are currently $950,000 per annum in aggregate (as approved by shareholders at the Company’s AGM on 22 November 2012). Fees paid to Non-Executive Directors are set at levels which reflect both the responsibilities of, and time commitments required from each Non-Executive Director to discharge their duties. Non-Executive Directors’ fees are reviewed annually by the Board to ensure they are appropriate for the duties performed, including Board committee duties, and are in line with the market. Non-Executive Directors do not receive performance-based remuneration. Other than statutory superannuation, Directors are not entitled to retirement allowances. Following a review by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee, there was no increase in Non-Executive Directors’ fees for the 2017 financial year. In addition, there has been a general 10% decrease in Non-Executive Directors’ fees for the 2018 financial year, with the Chairman agreeing to a 37% decrease in fees for the 2018 financial year. Other Key Management Personnel Remuneration of the Managing Director and other executive key management personnel generally comprises both a fixed component and an at-risk component, which is designed to remunerate key management personnel for increasing shareholder value and for achieving financial targets and business strategies set by the Board. The remuneration of the Managing Director and other key management personnel has the following three components: 38 Annual Report 2017 MMA Offshore Limited 39 2017 Financial ReportOverviewOperating & Financial ReviewGovernanceNo. 1 Remuneration Component Details Fixed Annual Remuneration (FAR) • Comprising base salary and superannuation. Allocation of Executive Remuneration between Fixed and Variable Remuneration The allocation of total executive remuneration between fixed and variable remuneration for the 2017 financial year is as follows: • In setting FAR, consideration is given to current market rates and industry benchmarking against appropriate comparator groups (including the median market rates within the sector and industry peers), Company performance and individual performance. • As previously reported, given the performance of the Company and current market conditions, the Board determined that the Managing Director and Senior Management would not receive any increase in FAR for the 2017 financial year. • The Managing Director, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer have all agreed to accept a 10% decrease in FAR for the 2018 financial year. The Board has also determined that the other Senior Management of the Company will not receive any increase in FAR for the 2018 financial year. 2 Short-term Incentive (STI) • An annual “at-risk” cash component designed to reward performance against the achievement of key performance indicators (KPIs) set by the Board. • The invitation to participate in the STI is at the absolute discretion of the Board and is subject to such conditions which the Board may prescribe from time to time. • As previously reported, given the performance of the Company and current market conditions, the Board exercised its discretion to suspend the STI component for the 2017 financial year. • Once again, the Board has exercised its discretion to suspend the STI component for the 2018 financial year (subject always to the Board’s discretion to reinstate the STI component if market conditions change). 3 Long-term Incentive (LTI) • The Company grants rights over its ordinary shares under the LTI. • The vesting of these rights is based on the achievement of stipulated performance criteria targets over a 3 year period. • The LTI also aims to align executives’ long-term interests with those of shareholders and to retain executives. • Given the performance of the Company and current market conditions, the Board has exercised its discretion to suspend the LTI component for the 2017 financial year. • Once again, the Board has exercised its discretion to suspend the LTI component for the 2018 financial year. The Board is currently considering a new 2018 Employee Incentive Plan to replace both the STI and LTI incentive plans - which (as noted above) have both been suspended for the 2018 financial year. It is anticipated that the new 2018 Employee Incentive Plan will be a share rights plan operating over a 2 year term with vesting triggers and parameters linked to the strategic objectives of the Company. While the proposed 2018 Employee Incentive Plan is not a typical incentive structure, the Board considers that it is appropriate in the current circumstances to achieve its business turnaround strategy, to retain key management personnel within the Company and to achieve the strategic objectives of the Company. The Board maintains its discretion to revert to a more normal remuneration structure (including STI and/or LTI) if market conditions change.

An example of this includes LTI awards which are recognised and accounted for over the performance period (3 years) based on their assessed value when originally granted to the executive. This may be significantly different to their value, if and when the incentive vests to that executive. The following tables disclose: (A) The actual remuneration of the Directors and other key management personnel of the Company for the 2017 financial year (i.e. the actual “take-home” pay received by key management personnel for the 2017 financial year); and (B) The statutory presentation of the remuneration of the Directors and other key management personnel of the Company for the 2017 financial year and for the previous financial year based on the requirements of accounting standards.

Loans to Key Management Personnel The Company has provided a member of its key management personnel with a short-term loan at rates comparable to the average commercial rate of interest. This loan is unsecured. As at the date of this report, the Managing Director and other executive key management personnel are all employed by the Company under an employment contract, none of which are of fixed-term duration. These employment contracts may be terminated by either party giving the required notice and subject to termination payments as detailed in the table below: Name Mr J Weber Mr D Ross Mr P Raynor Mr D Roberts Mr M Gillett Ms L Buckey Mr D Thomas Termination notice period Termination benefits payable 6 months 6 months 6 months 6 weeks 8 weeks 30 days 12 weeks Yes(1) Yes(1) Yes(1) No No No No (1) If the employee is made redundant as a result of a material diminution in the nature and level of responsibilities or functions of the employee’s position in a publicly listed company located in Perth, Western Australia, including without limitation through a change in control of the Company, the employee will be entitled to a payment being the lesser of either: • 1.5 times the Fixed Annual Remuneration in the relevant year (excluding any short-term incentives or long-term incentives); or • The maximum amount that may be paid to the employee under the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rules without prior shareholder approval. Under these employment contracts, the remuneration package for: • The Managing Director, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer consists of an annual base salary and a short-term incentive component and a long-term incentive component at the discretion of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee and the Board; and • Other executive key management personnel consists of an annual base salary and statutory superannuation contributions. Participation in the Company’s incentive schemes is at the discretion of the Board. This Directors’ Report is signed in accordance with a resolution of Directors made pursuant to section 298(2) of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). The following table outlines aggregate amounts in respect of loans made to key management personnel of the Group. On behalf of the Directors, Balance as at 1 July 2016 34,870 Interest charged 1,387 Arm’s length interest differential(1) Allowance for doubtful receivables Balance as at 30 June 2017 Number of key management personnel - - 24,732 1 (1) The arm’s length interest differential refers to the difference between the amount of interest paid and payable in the reporting period and the amount of interest that would have been charged on an arms-length basis. Share Trading Restrictions The Company’s Share Trading Policy requires key management personnel proposing to enter into arrangements that limit the economic risk of a vested holding in the Company’s securities to first obtain approval from the Chairman of the Board (for directors), approval of the Chairman of the Audit and Risk Committee (for the Chairman of the Board), and approval from the Managing Director (for other executives), and subsequently provide details of the dealing within five business days of the dealing taking place. Any breach of the Share Trading Policy is taken very seriously by the Company and is subject to disciplinary action, including possible termination of a person’s employment or appointment.

General Notes MMA Offshore Limited (MMA or the Company) is a listed public company incorporated in Australia. Its shares are traded on the Australian Securities Exchange. 1.1 Statement of Compliance These financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards (AASBs) and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board. The financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. The accounting policies are consistent with those applied in previous reporting periods. The Financial Statements were authorised for issue by the Directors on 18 September 2017. 1.2 Basis of Preparation The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost, except for certain assets which have been impaired and financial instruments that are measured at fair values. Historical cost is generally based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets. All amounts are presented in Australian dollars, unless otherwise noted. Transactions in foreign currencies are recognised at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Monetary items denominated in foreign currencies at reporting date are translated at the exchange rate prevailing at that date. Exchange differences are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise except for certain hedging transactions as described in note 4.2. For the purposes of preparing the financial statements, the Company is a for profit entity. The Company is a company of the kind referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financials/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191, dated 24 March 2016, and in accordance with this Corporations Instrument, amounts in the financial statements are rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars, unless otherwise indicated. Cash and cash equivalents at the beginning of the financial year 49,725 124,482 1.3 Basis of Consolidation Effects of exchange rate changes on the balance of cash held in foreign currencies (816) 4,004 Cash and Cash Equivalents at the End of the Financial Year 28,757 49,725 The financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company (its subsidiaries). Control is achieved when the Company: • has power over the investee; • is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and • has the ability to use its power to affect its returns. The Company reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Company obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Company loses control of the subsidiary. Specifically, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income from the date the Company gains control until the date when the Company ceases to control the subsidiary. When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with the Group’s accounting policies. All intragroup assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation. The above Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes. 60 Annual Report 2017 MMA Offshore Limited 61 OverviewOperating & Financial ReviewGovernance2017 Financial ReportNotes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2017 1. General Notes (continued) 1.4 New Accounting Standards Adoption of New and Revised Accounting Standards and Interpretations In the current year, the Group has applied the following new and amended AASBs that are mandatorily effective for an accounting period that begins on or after 1 July 2016: AASB 2015-2 ‘Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Disclosure Initiative: Amendments to AASB 101’ This amendment clarifies that an entity need not provide specific disclosure required by an AASB if the information resulting from the disclosure is not material. In addition the amendment provides guidance regarding the structure of the financial statements including ordering and grouping of notes. The adoption of this standard has not resulted in any adjustment to the amounts recognised in the financial statements. Standards and Interpretations issued but not yet effective At the date of authorisation of the Financial Statements, the Standards and Interpretations listed below were issued but not yet effective: Standard/Interpretation Effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after Expected to be initially applied in the financial year ending AASB 15 ‘Revenue from Contracts with Customers’ 1 January 2018 AASB 16 ‘Leases’ AASB 2016-2 ‘Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Disclosure Initiative: Amendments to AASB 107’ 1 January 2019 1 January 2017 30 June 2019 30 June 2020 30 June 2018 AASB 9 ‘Financial Instruments’ 1 January 2018 30 June 2019 The Group has reviewed AASB 15, 16 and 2016-2 and the preliminary assessment indicates there is unlikely to be any material impact on its financial statements. The Group is still assessing the impact of adopting AASB 9. 1.5 Critical Accounting Judgements and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty In the application of the Group’s accounting policies, the Directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. Critical judgements in applying accounting policies The following critical judgement has been made by the Directors in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. Allowance for doubtful debts – refer note 3.2 Key sources of estimation uncertainty The following are the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year. Useful lives of property, plant and equipment – refer note 3.6 Impairment of property, plant and equipment – refer note 3.7 Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2017 2. Financial Performance 2.1 Segment Information An operating segment is a component of a group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenue and incur expenses and whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (the Board of Directors) for the purposes of resource allocation and assessment of segment performance. For the current reporting period the Group had one reportable segment in continuing operations being its Vessel operations. The Group’s previously reportable Supply Base and Slipway segments, which were sold during the current year, have been classified as discontinued operations (see note 2.3). Information regarding the Vessel operating segment is presented below. The accounting policies of the reportable segment are the same as the Group’s accounting policies. Segment revenues and results The following is an analysis of the Group’s revenue and results by reportable segment: Revenue from external customers Impairment charge Profit/(loss) after impairment 2017 $’000 2016 $’000 2017 $’000 2016 $’000 2017 $’000 2016 $’000 Continuing Operations Vessels 221,766 414,724 (287,542) (100,000) (307,412) (115,447) Investment income Other gains/(losses) Administration costs Finance costs Loss from continuing operations before income tax 133 937 (14,960) 12,354 (7,377) (9,365) (26,444) (17,685) (356,060) (129,206) Segment loss represents the loss earned by the Vessel segment without allocation of investment revenue, other gains and losses, administration costs, finance costs and income tax expense. This is the measure reported to the chief operating decision maker for the purposes of resource allocation and assessment of segment performance. Revenue from a contract to provide services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract. The stage of completion of the contract is determined progressively at contractual rates as service hours are delivered and direct expenses incurred. Segment Assets The following is an analysis of the Group’s assets by reportable segment: Vessel segment assets(i) Unallocated assets Total continuing assets Assets relating to discontinued operations(ii) Total 2017 $’000 582,002 41,742 623,744 8,946 2016 $’000 937,658 69,340 1,006,998 87,475 632,690 1,094,473 (i) Vessel segment assets include vessels held for sale (see note 3.4). (ii) Trade receivables outstanding at 30 June 2017 related to Supply Base and Slipway. For the purposes of monitoring segment performance and allocating resources between segments, all assets are allocated to reportable segments other than cash, investments in jointly controlled entities, other financial assets, current tax assets and central administration assets. 62 Annual Report 2017 MMA Offshore Limited 63 OverviewOperating & Financial ReviewGovernance2017 Financial Report 2.

Financial Performance (continued) 2.3 Discontinued Operations A discontinued operation is a component of the Group that has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale and represents a major segment(s) of the business and is part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of such a line of business. Information regarding the results of the discontinued operations presented separately in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income is presented below. Dampier Supply Base and Slipway businesses At 31 December 2016, the Group classified the Dampier Supply Base and Slipway businesses as held for sale and discontinued operations. On 15 June 2017, the Group disposed of the Dampier Supply Base and Slipway businesses. Investment in Toll Mermaid Logistics Broome Pty Ltd (TMLB) On 28 April 2017 the Group disposed of its 50% investment in TMLB which operated the Broome Supply Base business and accordingly, classified the investment as a discontinued operation. This investment was previously accounted for using the equity method.

Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax. The tax currently payable is based on the taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The Group’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. 66 Annual Report 2017 MMA Offshore Limited 67 OverviewOperating & Financial ReviewGovernance2017 Financial ReportNotes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2017Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2017 2.

An allowance has been made for estimated irrecoverable trade receivable amounts arising from the past rendering of services. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price for inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale. Of the trade receivables balance at the end of the year, $16.1 million (2016: $18.3 million) is outstanding from the Group’s largest debtor and $6.8 million (2016: $6.6 million) from the Group’s second largest debtor. 3.4 Assets Classified as Held for Sale Non-current assets are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use and a sale is considered highly probable. They are measured at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. An impairment loss is recognised for any initial write-down of the asset to fair value less costs to sell. Information regarding the assets held for sale in the statement of financial position is presented below. At 31 December 2016, the Group resolved to dispose of a number of non-core vessels within the fleet. An impairment charge of $129.4 million was recognised on the reclassification of the non-core vessels to held for sale at that date, as the fair value less costs to sell for these vessels was expected to be lower than their carrying amount. At 30 June 2017, the carrying value of the vessels not yet sold was $35.9 million. 3.5 Investments Accounted For Using The Equity Method The Company owned a 50% (2016:50%) interest in Toll Mermaid Logistics Broome Pty Ltd (TMLB), which was sold on 28 April 2017 for $8.7 million, represented by a dividend distribution of $8.3 million and sales proceeds of $0.4 million. The carrying value on disposal was $8.7 million (30 June 2016: $9.0 million). The company is incorporated in Australia and provides supply base services in Broome for the offshore oil and gas industry. Trade receivables disclosed above include amounts (see below for aged analysis) that are past due at the end of the reporting period but against which the Group has not recognised an allowance for doubtful receivables because there has not been a significant change in credit quality and the amounts are still considered recoverable. The carrying amount of trade receivables is reduced by the impairment loss through the use of an allowance account when collection is considered at risk. When a trade receivable is subsequently considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognised in profit or loss. Ageing of receivables past due but not impaired: 31-60 days 61-90 days 91-120 days 121-150 days Over 150 days Total Movement in the allowance for doubtful debts Balance at the beginning of the year Impairment losses recognised on receivables Amounts written off as uncollectible Amounts recovered during the year Foreign exchange translation Balance at the end of the year Significant Accounting Judgement 2017 $’000 1,932 4,680 2,184 1,027 10,533 20,356 13,456 8,788 (157) - (847) 21,240 2016 $’000 2,863 4,342 1,362 2,610 18,096 29,273 6,068 7,197 - (1) 192 13,456 In determining the recoverability of trade receivables, the Group considers any change in the credit quality of the trade receivable from the date credit was initially granted up to the reporting date. In making their judgement on the appropriateness of the allowance for doubtful debts they have considered the outcomes of regular meetings with customers, ongoing contractual arrangements and regularity of receipts from the customers. Accordingly, the Directors believe that there is no further credit provision required in excess of the allowance for doubtful debts. Financial assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. Financial assets are considered to be impaired where there is objective evidence that as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been affected. 70 Annual Report 2017 MMA Offshore Limited 71 OverviewOperating & Financial ReviewGovernance2017 Financial ReportNotes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2017Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2017 3.

Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributed to the acquisition of the item. Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives. Leasehold buildings and improvements are depreciated over the period of the lease or estimated useful life, whichever is the shorter, using the straight-line method. Assets held under finance leases are depreciated over their expected useful lives on the same basis as owned assets. 3. Assets and Liabilities (continued) 3.6 Property, Plant and Equipment (continued) The gain or loss arising on disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit and loss. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation methods are reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period. The following rates are used in the calculation of depreciation: Leasehold buildings and improvements Vessels Vessel refits Plant and equipment 2% - 39% straight-line 4% - 8.33% straight-line 20% - 40% straight-line 5% - 100% straight-line Key Source of estimation uncertainty The Group reviews the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment at the end of each annual reporting period. At the end of this reporting period, the Directors have determined that there was no adjustment required to the Group’s property, plant and equipment’s useful lives. 3.7 Impairment of Non-current Assets At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets may have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash- generating unit to which the asset belongs. If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately. Key Source of estimation uncertainty Determining whether assets are impaired requires an estimate of the recoverable value of the assets. In order to determine the recoverable value of the assets in the current year, a Fair Value less Cost of Disposal (“FVLCOD”) approach was used (2016: FVLCOD approach). The FVLCOD method requires an estimate of the current market value of the assets and the costs that would be associated with a disposal of the assets. In estimating the current market value of the assets, the Group engaged experienced and qualified valuers to perform valuations. At the end of the reporting period, the Directors have determined that there is an impairment charge required to the Group’s carrying amount of property, plant and equipment. The Group performs its impairment testing annually on 30 June each year. In addition, market conditions are monitored for indications of impairment for all of the Group’s operating assets. Where an indication of impairment is identified, a formal impairment assessment is performed. The Group has identified the following indicators of impairment at 30 June 2017: • the carrying amount of the net assets of the Group is greater than the Company’s market capitalisation; and • market conditions in both Australia and internationally have continued to be challenging as the impact of lower oil prices is felt across the offshore support industry. As a result, the Group assessed the recoverable amounts of the Vessels Cash-Generating Unit (“CGU”). The Supply Base and Slipway CGUs were classified as Held for Sale as at 31 December 2016 resulting in the recognition of an impairment at that date as disclosed below. These assets were subsequently disposed of on 15 June 2017. Impairment testing The Group has evaluated whether the recoverable amount of each CGU exceeds its carrying amount. The recoverable amount is determined to be the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal (“FVLCOD”) or its value in use. In all instances, the FVLCOD method was used for the purpose of impairment testing on 30 June 2017. 72 Annual Report 2017 MMA Offshore Limited 73 OverviewOperating & Financial ReviewGovernance2017 Financial ReportNotes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2017Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2017 3. Assets and Liabilities (continued) 3. Assets and Liabilities (continued) 3.7 Impairment of Non-current Assets (continued) Impairment charges recognised The following information relates to impairment charges included in profit or loss: Segment/CGU Vessels Supply Base Slipway Total Class of asset Method Property, Plant & Equipment FVLCOD Property, Plant & Equipment FVLCOD Property, Plant & Equipment FVLCOD Impairment charge 2017 $’000 287,542 22,315 2,331 312,188 2016 $’000 100,000 36,000 3,000 139,000 The impairment charge recognised for Vessels is reflected as part of the Group’s continuing operations (note 2.2) while the impairment charge for Supply Base and Slipway CGUs are reflected in discontinued operations (note 2.3). The inputs used in deriving the recoverable amount of each CGU is categorised in accordance within the following levels of the fair value hierarchy: CGU Vessels Continuing operations Held for sale Level 3(i) $’000 498,386 35,944 Recoverable Amount $’000 498,386 35,944 (i) Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs used to measure fair value. In our calculations the inputs used are based on both observable and unobservable market data prepared by an independent valuation consultant together with internally determined valuations. Due to the unobservable market data and internal valuation components of the valuations, the inputs are considered Level 3. Vessels Industry conditions in Australia and internationally continue to be challenging, as the impact of the continued low oil prices and over supply of vessels are felt across the offshore oil and gas support industry. Oil prices have recovered from near 12-year lows, but continue to remain subdued, reflecting ongoing surplus concerns. As a result of these concerns, MMA is impacted through lower utilisation and charter rates for its vessels. In addition, the value of vessels in the market has continued to decrease. As disclosed in note 3.4, a group of non-core vessels in the fleet were classified as being held for sale as at 31 December 2016. This classification has resulted in two separate fair value assessments for the fleet, being those core vessels used for continuing operations and those non-core vessels that are held for sale. Continuing Operations The recoverable amount of the core vessels was determined using a market based approach, reflecting the value which could be expected to be realised through the disposal of the vessels, in an orderly market, on an “as is where is” basis between a willing buyer and willing seller. An independent valuation of the fleet was undertaken by a specialist marine valuation consultancy and ship broking company. In preparing their valuation report, some of the factors they considered include the current market conditions in which the vessels operate, a review of recent market sales of similar vessels, consideration of the specification and earnings potential of each vessel and the inherent value and replacement cost of each vessel. A key input into the recoverable amount of the CGU was the application of a discount to the independent vessel valuation to reflect the amount which would be achieved if the fleet was disposed of in one single transaction. We have applied an ‘en bloc’ discount of 20% being a rate within a range provided by the independent valuer. A 5% increase or decrease in the ‘en bloc’ discount rate would result in a corresponding $31 million increase or decrease in the impairment charge. Another key input was the estimated costs of disposal. The Company has adopted a selling cost equal to 2% of the sale value of each vessel based on actual selling costs of between 1.5% and 2.5% for previous vessel sales. 3.7 Impairment of Non-current Assets (continued) At 30 June 2017, the inputs used in calculating the fair value of the core fleet have moved from Level 2 to Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. While the underlying independent valuation of each vessel is still considered to be a Level 2 input, the continued weakness in the vessel market and industry has resulted in limited market information being currently available to assess the value of the ‘en bloc’ discount used in the current reporting period. As a result of this limited observable data, the fair value hierarchy is reclassified to Level 3. Inputs in determining the classification level within the fair value hierarchy are reassessed at each reporting period as part of the impairment process. The inputs used within calculations are assessed and discussed internally to determine the extent to which they can be compared to observable market information and classified accordingly. Held for Sale The recoverable amount of the non-core vessels was determined using a market based approach, reflecting the value which could be expected to be realised through an accelerated sale program. In the initial assessment of the fair value of these non-core vessels at 31 December 2016, the Company had taken into consideration the following factors: • • • • the current market values assessed by the independent specialist marine consultancy and broking company the recent market evidence of deemed distressed sales of vessels of similar age and classification the forecast costs the Company would incur in holding the respective vessels over the next 3 year period the accelerated timing in which the Company wants to complete the sales The Company reassessed the fair value of the remaining non-core vessels at 30 June 2017 to take into consideration the following factors: • actual sales of the non-core vessels that have been completed to date and contracted vessel sales that will complete in the coming months • current sale discussions and negotiations on the remaining non-core vessels • market sales evidence for similar vessels over the past 6 months The price that would be expected to be received in these circumstances for these non-core vessels would be less than if sold in an orderly transaction with no time restrictions to complete the sale. 3.8 Trade and Other Payables Trade payables Other payables and accruals Goods and services tax payable Total 2017 $’000 7,826 24,390 5,170 37,386 2016 $’000 9,372 34,443 125 43,940 The average credit period on purchases of all goods is 30 days.

Assets and Liabilities (continued) 3. Assets and Liabilities (continued) 3.9 Borrowings (continued) Summary of borrowing arrangements: (i) (ii) The hire purchase liabilities are fixed interest rate debt with repayment periods not exceeding 3 years. The current weighted average interest rate on the hire purchase liabilities is 2.9% (2016: 6.41%). In May 2014, the Company entered into a five year Syndicated Facility Agreement with NAB and ANZ as mandated lead arrangers together with a further five Syndicate Banks, comprising a A$200 million term loan facility and a US$227 million term loan facility. The Facility was fully secured by fixed and floating charges given by certain controlled entities within the Group, registered ship mortgages over a number of vessels owned by certain controlled entities, real property mortgages and a mortgage by way of sub-demise over the Dampier Supply Base lease. In February 2016, the Company agreed a number of amendments to the terms and financial covenants of the Facility with the members of the Syndicate in response to the difficult trading conditions in the offshore oil and gas industry. On 16 September 2016, the Company received approval of some further amendments to the terms and financial covenants of the Facility from the Syndicate members and committed to an increase in the annual principal repayments over the remaining term of the Facility to $75.0 million per annum, with $37.5 million to be settled by 31 December 2016. On 23 December 2016 the Syndicate agreed to defer the payment of the scheduled amortisation of $37.5 million which was due on 31 December 2016 to 31 March 2017. Subsequently, on 28 February 2017, the Company and the Syndicate members agreed to a number of further amendments to the Facility including replacing the previous scheduled amortisation payments with a principal repayment of $45 million to be paid on 30 June 2017 and the remaining balance of the Facility to be repaid at the termination date. The parties also agreed to extend the term of the Facility for a further 6 month period to 30 September 2019. The $45 million principal repayment at 30 June 2017 was funded primarily from the proceeds of the sale of the Company’s Dampier Supply Base and Slipway businesses. The Company also applied proceeds received from the non-core vessels sales program and the sale of its 50% shareholding in the jointly controlled Company, Toll Mermaid Logistics Broome Pty Ltd, toward prepayment of the remaining balance of the Facility. In accordance with the terms of the Facility, proceeds from the sale of the remaining non-core vessels will also be applied toward prepayment of the remaining balance of the Facility. The current weighted average interest rate on the bank loans is 7.6% (2016: 3.77%). (iii) The unamortised loan fees are in relation to the Syndicated Facility Agreement. Other financial liabilities including borrowings are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs. Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognised on an effective yield basis. The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected life of the financial liability, or, where appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount on initial recognition. The Group derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Group’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or they expire. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid or payable is recognised in the profit and loss. 3.9 Borrowings (continued) Available borrowing facilities Secured loan facilities with various maturity dates through to 2019 and which may be extended by mutual agreement: Amount used Amount unused Total Secured bank overdraft: Amount used Amount unused Total 3.10 Provisions Current Employee benefits – annual leave Employee benefits – long service leave Restructuring costs – shipbuilding operations Warranty & Cancellation costs – shipbuilding operations Total Non-current 2017 $’000 2016 $’000 324,209 397,755 - - 324,209 397,755 - 4,000 4,000 2017 $’000 6,553 3,507 148 - - 4,000 4,000 2016 $’000 7,075 3,418 889 3,251 10,208 14,633 Employee benefits – long service leave 885 806 A liability is recognised for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave and long service leave in the period the related service is performed. Liabilities recognised in respect of short-term employee benefits, are measured at their nominal values using the remuneration rate expected to apply at the time of settlement. Liabilities recognised in respect of long-term employee benefits are measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made by the Group in respect of services provided by employees up to reporting date. Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the Group will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows. A restructuring provision is recognised when the Group has developed a detailed formal plan for restructuring and has raised a valid expectation with those affected that it will carry out the restructuring by starting to implement the plan or announcing its main features to those affected by it. The measurement of a restructuring provision includes only the direct expenditures arising from the restructuring, which are those amounts that are both necessarily entailed by the restructuring and not associated with the ongoing activities of the entity. 76 Annual Report 2017 MMA Offshore Limited 77 OverviewOperating & Financial ReviewGovernance2017 Financial ReportNotes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2017Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2017 3.

Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. 3. Assets and Liabilities (continued) 3.11 Deferred Tax Balances (continued) Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period(s) in which the liability is settled or the asset is realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by reporting date. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the reporting date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Group intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis. Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively. Unrecognised deferred tax assets Deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and unused tax credits for which no deferred tax assets have been recognised are attributable to the following: Tax losses (revenue in nature) Tax losses (capital in nature) Deductible temporary differences 2017 $’000 2016 $’000 39,371 19,313 10,116 10,057 837 10,976 The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Nature of tax funding arrangements and tax sharing agreements Entities within the tax-consolidated group have entered into a tax funding arrangement and a tax sharing agreement with the head entity. Under the terms of the tax funding arrangement, MMA Offshore Limited and each of the entities in the tax-consolidated group has agreed to pay a tax equivalent payment to or from the head entity, based on the current tax liability or current tax asset of the entity. Such amounts are reflected in amounts receivable from or payable to other entities in the tax-consolidated group. The tax sharing agreement entered into between members of the tax-consolidated group provides for the determination of the allocation of income tax liabilities between the entities should the head entity default on its tax payment obligations or if any entity should leave the tax consolidated group. The effect of the tax sharing agreement is that each member’s liability for tax payable by the tax consolidated group is limited to the amount payable to the head entity under the tax funding arrangement. 78 Annual Report 2017 MMA Offshore Limited 79 OverviewOperating & Financial ReviewGovernance2017 Financial ReportNotes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2017Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 20174. Capital Structure (continued) 4.3 Capital Risk Management The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as going concerns, while maximising the return to stakeholders through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance. The Group’s overall strategy remains unchanged from 2016. The capital structure of the Group consists of net debt (borrowings as detailed in note 3.9 offset by cash at bank balances) and equity of the Group (comprising issued capital and reserves as detailed in notes 4.1 and 4.2 and accumulated losses). The Group is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements other than normal banking requirements. Based on recommendations of management and the Board, the Group will balance its overall capital structure through new share issues as well as the establishment of new borrowing facilities or repayment of existing facilities. The Group uses its gearing ratio (measured as net debt to equity) to manage its capital. The ratio is monitored on a monthly basis by the Board and management. Gearing Ratio The gearing ratio at the end of the reporting period was as follows: Debt(i) Cash and cash equivalents Net debt Equity(ii) Gearing ratio (i) (ii) Debt is defined as long and short-term borrowings, as detailed in note 3.9. Equity includes all capital and reserves of the Group that are managed as capital. 2017 $’000 314,452 (28,757) 285,695 256,489 111% 2016 $’000 391,825 (49,725) 342,100 634,166 54% 4.

Share Rights As at 30 June 2017, executives and employees held rights over 10,923,881 ordinary shares (2016: 13,718,778) in aggregate (see note 5.2). Share rights granted under the employee share rights plans carry no right to dividends and no voting rights. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Group are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs. 4.2 Reserves Employee equity settled benefits Hedging Foreign currency translation Balance at end of financial year 2017 $’000 1,114 (51,203) 165,288 115,199 2016 $’000 5,704 (58,345) 172,194 119,553 The employee equity settled benefits reserve arises on the grant of share rights to executives and employees under the Company’s share rights plans. Amounts are transferred out of the reserve and into issued capital when the rights vest or expire. The hedging reserve is used to record gains and losses on hedges designated as cash flow hedges including hedges of net investments in a foreign operation. Gains and losses accumulated in the hedge reserve are taken to the profit or loss when the hedged transaction impacts the profit or loss, or is included as an adjustment to the initial carrying amount of the hedged item. For a net investment in a foreign operation any gains and losses are taken to profit and loss on disposal of the foreign operation. The foreign currency translation reserve represents exchange differences relating to the translation from the functional currencies of the Group’s foreign controlled entities into Australian Dollars. The assets and liabilities of the Group’s foreign operations are translated into Australian Dollars using exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. Exchange differences arising, if any, are recognised through other comprehensive income and recognised in equity. On the disposal of the foreign operation (i.e. a disposal of the Group’s entire interest in a foreign operation), all of the accumulated exchange differences in respect of that operation attributable to the Group are reclassified to profit or loss. 80 Annual Report 2017 MMA Offshore Limited 81 OverviewOperating & Financial ReviewGovernance2017 Financial ReportNotes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2017Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2017 5.

The Group has options to purchase the equipment for a nominated amount at the conclusion of the lease agreements. Leases are classified as finance leases when the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases. Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised as assets of the Group at their fair value at the inception of the lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the statement of financial position as a finance lease obligation. Lease payments are apportioned between finance costs and reduction of the lease obligations so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance costs are recognised immediately in profit or loss. 5.

Other Notes (continued) 5.2 Share Based Payments Share rights incentive plans The Group has established ownership based compensation plans whereby executives and employees of the Group have been issued rights over ordinary shares of MMA Offshore Limited. Upon exercise, each share right, converts into one ordinary share of MMA Offshore Limited. No amounts are paid or are payable by the recipient on receipt of the rights. The rights carry no entitlement to dividends and no voting rights. Holders of rights do not have the entitlement, by virtue of the right, to participate in any share issue of the Company. The rights may be exercised at any time from their vesting date to the date of their expiry. The rights are not quoted on the ASX. The following share based payment arrangements were in existence during the current reporting period: Series Number issued Grant Date Expiry Date (1) Issued 03 December 2013 1,092,384 11 Oct 2013 1 Jul 2016 (2) Issued 03 December 2013 339,238 11 Oct 2013 1 Jul 2016 (3) Issued 03 December 2013 346,023 21 Nov 2013 1 Jul 2016 (4) Issued 22 October 2014 1,052,625 22 Oct 2014 1 Jul 2017 (5) Issued 1 December 2014 11,382 1 Dec 2014 1 Jul 2017 (6) Issued 1 December 2014 430,075 18 Nov 2014 1 Jul 2017 (7) Issued 10 February 2016 2,001,432 18 Nov 2015 1 Jul 2020 (8) Issued 10 February 2016 8,037,836 7 Dec 2015 1 Jul 2020 (9) Issued 07 June 2016 220,284 18 Apr 2015 1 Jul 2020 Exercise price $ Fair Value at Grant date $ 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 2.14 2.02 1.71 1.09 1.09 0.75 0.02 0.02 0.02 None of the Performance Criteria for rights issued during the 2014 financial year as part of Series 1, 2 and 3 were met. As such, all the rights have lapsed in accordance with the terms of the Plan rules. Performance Rights issued during the 2015 financial year as part of Series 4, 5 and 6 to executives and employees are subject to achievement of a number of vesting targets. 25% of the rights are subject to achieving normalised earnings per share (EPS) growth targets over the 3 year vesting period and the remaining 75% are subject to the Company’s Total Shareholder Return percentile ranking relative to a selected Peer Group. At 30 June 2017 none of the performance criteria for these rights had been met and they will lapse in accordance with the terms of the Plan rules. Performance Rights issued during the 2016 financial year as part of Series 7, 8 and 9 to executives and employees are subject to achievement of a number of vesting targets. 50% of the rights are subject to achieving a share price target and the remaining 50% are subject to the Company’s Total Shareholder Return percentile ranking relative to a selected Peer Group over the 3 year vesting period. Please refer to the Remuneration Report on pages 38 to 47 for further details of Performance Rights issued to executives and employees. Fair value of share rights granted during the year There were no share rights granted during the year. Equity settled share based payments to employees are measured at fair value of the equity instrument at grant date. The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity settled share based payments is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group’s estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest, with a corresponding increase in equity. At the end of each reporting period, the Group revises its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is recognised in profit or loss such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with corresponding adjustment to the employee equity settled benefits reserve. 5.

These risks include market risk (including currency and interest rate risk) credit risk and liquidity risk. A Treasury Policy has been approved by the Board and provides guidelines for conducting treasury activities. Compliance with this Policy is monitored through internal audit procedures and subsequent reporting to the Audit and Risk Committee. The Group seeks to minimise the effects of these risks, by using, where considered appropriate, derivative financial instruments to hedge these risk exposures. The allowable financial derivatives and conditions for their use are documented in the Treasury Policy. The Group does not enter into or trade financial instruments including derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. The Group’s activities expose it primarily to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. Where required, the Group can enter into a range of derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to these risks. At a Group level, these market risks are managed through sensitivity analysis. There is no change in the manner in which these risks are managed and measured in the current year. Foreign currency risk management The Group undertakes transactions denominated in foreign currencies. Consequently, exposures to exchange rate fluctuations arise. Exchange rate exposures are managed within approved policy parameters utilising forward foreign exchange contracts. The carrying amounts of the Group’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities at the end of the financial year are as follows: US Dollars Singapore Dollars Euro Other Liabilities Assets 2017 $’000 17,061 3,518 643 975 2016 $’000 28,473 10,626 937 2,864 2017 $’000 41,844 2,335 877 1,224 2016 $’000 63,394 3,494 59 1,443 Foreign currency sensitivity analysis The Group is mainly exposed to US Dollars (USD), Singapore Dollars (SGD) and Euro (EUR). The following table details the Group’s sensitivity to a 10% increase and decrease in the Australian Dollar against the relevant foreign currencies. The 10% sensitivity represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in foreign exchange rates. The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at the period end for a 10% change in foreign currency rates. A positive number below indicates an increase in profit or equity where the Australian dollar strengthens 10% against the relevant currency. For a 10% weakening of the Australian Dollar against the relevant currency, there would be an equal and opposite impact on the profit or equity.

Other Notes (continued) 5.8 Financial Instruments (continued) Interest rate risk management The Group is exposed to interest rate risk because it borrows funds primarily at floating interest rates. The risk is managed by the Group by the use of interest rate swap contracts when considered appropriate. Hedging activities are evaluated regularly to align with interest rate views ensuring the most cost-effective hedging strategies are applied, if required. The Group’s exposures to interest rates on financial assets and financial liabilities are detailed in the liquidity risk management section of this note. Interest rate sensitivity analysis The sensitivity analysis below has been determined based on the exposure to interest rates at the end of the reporting period. For floating rate liabilities, the analysis is prepared assuming the amount of the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period was outstanding for the whole year. A 100 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates. At reporting date, if interest rates had been 100 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, the impact on the net profit of the Group would be as follows: • Net profit would decrease/increase by $3,242,085 (2016: decrease/increase by $3,977,559). This is attributable to the Group’s exposure to interest rates on its variable borrowings. The Group’s sensitivity to interest rates has decreased during the current year due to the decrease in the carrying value of the variable rate debt instruments as a result of the principal repayments made during the year. Credit risk management Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The Group has a policy of only dealing with credit worthy counterparties. The Group’s exposures to its counterparties are continuously monitored by management. Where appropriate, the Group obtains guarantees from customers. Cash terms, advance payments or letters of credit are required from customers of lower credit standing. Trade receivables consist of a large number of customers spread across the offshore oil and gas exploration, development and production industries and across diverse geographical areas. Ongoing credit evaluation is performed on the financial condition of trade receivables. Apart from the largest and second largest trade receivables (refer note 3.2), the Group does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty or any group of counterparties having similar characteristics. The Group defines counterparties as having similar characteristics if they are related entities. The credit risk on the largest and second largest receivables is managed through regular meetings with the customers, ongoing contractual arrangements and regular receipts for the balances outstanding. The credit risk on liquid funds and derivative financial instruments is limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit ratings assigned by international credit rating agencies. The carrying amount of financial assets recognised in the financial statements, which is net of impairment losses, represents the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk. Liquidity risk management The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate cash reserves, overdraft and borrowing facilities, continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and managing credit terms with customers and suppliers. Note 3.9 sets out details of additional undrawn facilities that the Group has at its disposal to further reduce liquidity risk. 5. Other Notes (continued) 5.8 Financial Instruments (continued) The following tables detail the Group’s remaining contractual maturity for its non-derivative financial liabilities with agreed repayment periods. The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Group can be required to pay.
