Total  debt  represents  short-term  debt,  the  current  portion  of  long-term  debt  and  long-term  debt,  and  the  current  and  long-term  portion  of  obligations  related  to
finance leases.

EBITDA  and Adjusted  EBITDA  are  non-GAAP  financial  measures.  EBITDA  represents  earnings  before  interest,  taxes,  depreciation  and  amortization. Adjusted 
EBITDA represents EBITDA before foreign exchange (loss) gain, other loss, write-down and loss on sale of assets, adjustments for direct financing and sales-type 
leases  to  a  cash  basis,  amortization  of  in-process  revenue  contracts,  credit  loss  provision  adjustments,  unrealized  gains  (losses)  on  derivative  instruments, 
realized losses on stock purchase warrants and interest rate swaps, realized losses on interest rate swap amendments and terminations, loss on deconsolidation 
of Altera, write-downs related to equity-accounted investments, and our share of the above items in non-consolidated joint ventures which are accounted for using 
the equity method of accounting. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are used as supplemental financial performance measures by management and by external users 
of our financial statements, such as investors. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA assist our management and security holders by increasing the comparability of our 
fundamental  performance  from  period  to  period  and  against  the  fundamental  performance  of  other  companies  in  our  industry  that  provide  EBITDA  or Adjusted 
EBITDA-based  information.  This  increased  comparability  is  achieved  by  excluding  the  potentially  disparate  effects  between  periods  or  companies  of  interest 
expense, taxes, depreciation or amortization (or other items in determining Adjusted EBITDA), which items are affected by various and possibly changing financing 
methods, capital structure and historical cost basis and which items may significantly affect net income between periods. We believe that including EBITDA and 
Adjusted EBITDA benefits security holders in (a) selecting between investing in us and other investment alternatives and (b) monitoring our ongoing financial and 
operational strength and health in order to assess whether to continue to hold our equity, or debt securities, as applicable.

Neither  EBITDA  nor Adjusted  EBITDA  should  be  considered  as  an  alternative  to  net  income,  operating  income  or  any  other  measure  of  financial  performance
presented  in  accordance  with  GAAP.  EBITDA  and Adjusted  EBITDA  exclude  some,  but  not  all,  items  that  affect  net  income  and  operating  income,  and  these 
measures may vary among other companies. Therefore, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as presented below may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of 
other companies.

The following table reconciles our historical consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss).

Foreign currency exchange loss (gain) includes an unrealized gain of $26.8 million in 2020 (2019 – loss of $13.2 million, 2018 – gain of $21.2 million, 2017 – gain
of $82.7 million, and 2016 – gain of $75.0 million) on cross currency swaps.

In June 2016, as part of its financing initiatives, Altera canceled the construction contracts for its two UMS newbuildings. As a result, Altera accrued for potential
damages resulting from the cancellations and reversed contingent liabilities previously recorded that were relating to the delivery of the UMS newbuildings. This 
net loss provision of $23.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 was reported in other loss in our consolidated statement of income. The newbuilding 
contracts were held in Altera's separate subsidiaries and obligations of these subsidiaries were non-recourse to Altera. 

(c) During  the  year  ended  December  31,  2016,  the  Company  recorded  a  write-down  of  a  cost-accounted  investment  of  $19.0  million.  This  investment  was 
subsequently sold in 2017, resulting in a gain on sale of $1.3 million. During 2017, the Company recognized an additional tax indemnification guarantee liability of
$50.0 million relating to Teekay LNG's 70%-owned consolidated subsidiary Teekay Nakilat Corporation.

Adjustments  related  to  equity  (loss)  income  is  a  non-GAAP  financial  measure  and  should  not  be  considered  as  an  alternative  to  equity  income  or  any  other
measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjustments related to equity (loss) income exclude some, but not all, items that 
affect equity (loss) income, and these measures may vary among other companies. Therefore, adjustments related to equity (loss) income as presented in this 
Annual  Report  may  not  be  comparable  to  similarly  titled  measures  of  other  companies. Adjustments  related  to  equity  (loss)  income  includes  depreciation  and 
amortization, net interest expense, income tax expense, amortization of in-process revenue contracts, adjustments for direct financing and sales-type lease to a 
cash basis, write-down and loss (gain) on sales of vessels, realized and unrealized loss (gain) on derivative instruments and other items, realized loss (gain) on

Risk Factors

Some of the risks summarized below and discussed in greater detail in the following pages relate principally to the industry in which we operate and 
to our business in general. Other risks relate principally to the securities market and to ownership of our common stock. The occurrence of any of 
the  events  described  in  this  section  could  materially  and  adversely  affect  our  business,  financial  condition,  operating  results  and  ability  to  pay 
interest or principal or dividends on, and the trading price of our public debt and common stock.

Risk Factor Summary

Risks Related to Our Industry

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

Changes in the oil and natural gas markets could result in decreased demand for our vessels and services.

A decline in natural gas or oil prices may adversely affect our growth prospects and results of operations.

Adverse economic conditions, including disruptions in the global credit markets, could adversely affect our business, financial condition and
results of operations.

Marine transportation and oil production are inherently risky, and an incident involving loss or damage to a vessel, significant loss of product or
environmental contamination by any of our vessels could harm our reputation and business.

The  cyclical  nature  of  the  tanker  industry  may  lead  to  volatile  changes  in  charter  rates  and  significant  fluctuations  in  the  utilization  of  our
vessels.

The  novel  coronavirus  (or  COVID-19)  pandemic  is  dynamic.  The  continuation  of  this  pandemic,  and  the  emergence  of  other  epidemic  or
pandemic crises, could have material adverse effects on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.

Terrorist  attacks,  increased  hostilities,  political  change  or  war  could  lead  to  further  economic  instability,  increased  costs  and  business
disruption.

Acts of piracy on ocean-going vessels continue to be a risk, which could adversely affect our business.

Risks Related to Our Business

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

Adverse economic conditions or other developments may affect our customers’ ability to charter our vessels and pay for our services and may
adversely affect our business and results of operations.

The intense competition in our markets may lead to reduced profitability or reduced expansion opportunities.

The loss of any key customer or its inability to pay for our services could result in a significant loss of revenue in a given period.

Our ability to repay or refinance debt obligations and to fund capital expenditures will depend on certain financial, business and other factors,
many of which are beyond our control. We will need to obtain additional financing, which financing may limit our ability to make cash dividends
and distributions, increase our financial leverage and result in dilution to our equityholders.

Charter rates for conventional oil and product tankers may fluctuate substantially over time and may be lower when we are attempting to re-
charter these vessels. Any changes in charter rates for LNG and LPG carriers could adversely affect redeployment opportunities.

Current market conditions limit our access to capital and our growth.

Our  future  performance  and  ability  to  secure  future  employment  for  our  LNG  and  LPG  vessels  depends  on  continued  growth  in  LNG
production, demand and supply for LNG and LPG, and associated demand and supply for LNG and LPG shipping.

Teekay LNG may have more difficulty entering into long-term, fixed-rate LNG time-charters if the active short-term, medium-term or spot LNG
shipping markets continue to develop.

Reductions to the value of the Teekay LNG common units and Teekay Tankers common stock pledged as collateral for our equity margin credit
facility could result in breaches of such credit facility.

Declining market values of our vessels could adversely affect our liquidity and result in breaches of our financing agreements.

Over time, the value of our vessels may decline, which could result in both write-downs and an adverse effect on our operating results.

We have recognized asset impairments in the past and we may recognize additional impairments in the future.

Our cash flow depends substantially on the ability of our subsidiaries, primarily our Daughter Entities, to make distributions to us.

Teekay Parent may need to divest assets or issue additional securities to raise capital to meet its future liquidity needs.

Our insurance may not be sufficient to cover losses that may occur to our property or as a result of our operations.

The duration of our FPSO contracts is the life of the relevant oil field or is subject to early termination options by the field operator or vessel
charterer. If a unit is not redeployed or sold on termination of its contract, we may incur costs to decommission and scrap the unit.

We have substantial debt levels and may incur additional debt.

Exposure to interest rate fluctuations will result in fluctuations in our cash flows and operating results.

Use of LIBOR is scheduled to cease, and interest rates on our LIBOR-based obligations may increase in the future.

Financing agreements containing operating and financial restrictions may restrict our business and financing activities.

Our and many of our customers’ substantial operations outside the United States expose us and them to political, governmental and economic
instability.

Maritime claimants could arrest, or port authorities could detain, our vessels, which could interrupt our cash flow.

Many of our seafaring employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements and the failure to renew those agreements or any future
labor agreements may disrupt operations and adversely affect our cash flows.

We and certain of our joint venture partners may be unable to attract and retain qualified, skilled employees or crew to operate our business.

Exposure to currency exchange rate fluctuations results in fluctuations in our cash flows and operating results.

Our operating results are subject to seasonal fluctuations.

We may experience operational problems with vessels that reduce revenue and increase costs.

Actual results of new technologies or technology upgrades may differ from expected results and affect our results of operations.

Sanctions against key participants in the Yamal LNG Project could impede performance of the Yamal LNG Project.

Failure, shutdown or other adverse events impacting the Yamal LNG Project may result in Teekay LNG’s inability to re-deploy the ARC7 LNG
carriers.

Teekay LNG or its joint venture partners may be unable to operate an LNG receiving and regasification terminal and may be exposed from
time to time to conditions, developments, or requirements that may adversely affect Teekay LNG or its joint venture.

Our joint venture arrangements impose obligations upon us but limit our control of the joint ventures.

We depend on certain joint venture partners to assist us in operating our businesses and competing in our markets.

We may be unable to realize benefits from acquisitions and growth through acquisitions may harm our financial condition and performance.

The  Daughter  Entities  may  expend  substantial  sums  during  the  construction  of  future  potential  newbuildings  or  upgrades  to  their  existing
vessels, without earning revenue and without assurance that they will be completed.

We  may  make  substantial  capital  expenditures  to  expand  the  size  of  our  fleet  and  generally  are  required  to  make  significant  installment
payments for acquisitions of newbuilding vessels. Depending on how we finance our expenditures, our financial leverage could increase or our
shareholders could be diluted.

Teekay Tankers’ U.S. Gulf lightering business competes with alternative methods of delivering crude oil to ports, which may limit its earnings in
this area of its operations.

Teekay Tankers’ full service lightering operations are subject to specific risks that could lead to accidents, oil spills or property damage.

Legal and Regulatory Risks

•

•

•

•

Past port calls by our vessels, or third-party vessels from which we derived revenue sharing agreements (or RSA) revenues, to countries that
are subject to sanctions imposed by the United States and the European Union could harm our business.

Failure to comply with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the UK Bribery Act, the UK Criminal Finances Act, and other similar legislation in
other jurisdictions could result in fines, criminal penalties, contract terminations and an adverse effect on our business.

Our operations are subject to substantial environmental and other regulations, which may significantly increase our expenses.

Climate change and greenhouse gas restrictions may adversely impact our operations and markets.

10

•

•

•

Increasing scrutiny and changing expectations from investors, lenders, customers and other market participants with respect to ESG policies
and practices may impose additional costs on us or expose us to additional risks.

Regulations relating to ballast water discharge may adversely affect our operational results and financial condition.

Our operations may be subject to economic substance requirements in the Marshall Islands and other offshore jurisdictions.

Information and Technology Risks

•

•

A cyber-attack could materially disrupt our business.

Our failure to comply with data privacy laws could damage our customer relationships and expose us to litigation risks and potential fines.

Risks Related to an Investment in Our Securities

•

Because  we  are  organized  under  the  laws  of  the  Marshall  Islands,  it  may  be  difficult  to  serve  us  with  legal  process  or  enforce  judgments
against us, our directors or our management.

Tax Risks 

•

•

U.S.  tax  authorities  could  treat  us  as  a  “passive  foreign  investment  company,”  which  could  have  adverse  U.S.  federal  income  tax
consequences to U.S. shareholders.

We are subject to taxes. The imposition of taxes, including as a result of a change in tax law or accounting requirements, may reduce our cash
available for distribution to shareholders.

Risks Related to Our Industry

Changes in the oil and natural gas markets could result in decreased demand for our vessels and services.

Demand  for  our  vessels  and  services  in  transporting,  production  of  oil,  petroleum  products,  LNG  and  LPG  depend  upon  world  and  regional  oil, 
petroleum  and  natural  gas  markets. Any  decrease  in  shipments  of  oil,  petroleum  products,  LNG  or  LPG  in  those  markets  could  have  a  material 
adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Historically, those markets have been volatile as a result of the many 
conditions  and  events  that  affect  the  price,  production  and  transport  of  oil,  petroleum  products,  LNG  or  LPG,  and  competition  from  alternative 
energy sources. A slowdown of the U.S. and world economies may result in reduced consumption of oil, petroleum products and natural gas and 
decreased demand for our vessels and services, which would reduce vessel earnings.

A decline in natural gas or oil prices may adversely affect our growth prospects and results of operations.

Oil prices are volatile and have recently reached their lowest levels since 1998 for certain crude oil grades. Low energy prices may negatively affect 
both the competitiveness of natural gas as a fuel for power generation and the market price of natural gas, to the extent that natural gas prices are 
benchmarked to the price of crude oil. Low energy prices have adversely affected, and may continue to adversely affect energy and master limited 
partnership capital markets and available sources of financing for our capital expenditures and debt repayment obligations. A sustained low energy 
price environment may adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition and our ability to make cash distributions, as a 
result of a number of factors, some of which may be beyond our control, including:

•

•

•

•

•

•

fluctuations in worldwide and regional supply of, demand for and price of natural gas;

the termination of production of oil at the fields we service, which may result in early termination of FPSO contracts;

lower demand for vessels of the types we own and operate, which may reduce available charter rates and revenue to us upon redeployment of
our vessels following expiration or termination of existing contracts or upon the initial chartering of vessels, or which may result in extended
periods of our vessels being idle between contracts;

customers  potentially  seeking  to  renegotiate  or  terminate  existing  vessel  contracts,  failing  to  extend  or  renew  contracts  upon  expiration,  or
seeking to negotiate cancelable contracts;

the inability or refusal of customers to make charter payments to us due to financial constraints or otherwise; or

declines in vessel values, which may result in losses to us upon vessel sales or impairment charges against our earnings.

Adverse economic conditions, including disruptions in the global credit markets, could adversely affect our business, financial condition 
and results of operations.

Economic downturns and financial crises in the global markets could produce illiquidity in the capital markets, market volatility, increased exposure 
to interest rate and credit risks and reduced access to capital markets. If global financial markets and economic conditions significantly deteriorate 
in the future, we may face restricted access to the capital markets or bank lending, which may make it more difficult and costly to fund future growth. 
Decreased access to such resources could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The  United  Kingdom  exited  the  European  Union  (or  EU)  on  January  31,  2020.  On  December  24,  2020,  the  United  Kingdom  reached  a  trade 
agreement  with  the  EU.  While  the  trade  agreement  did  not  impose  any  new  tariffs  or  quotas  on  goods,  there  is  a  risk  that  the  disruption  of  free 
movement  between  the  United  Kingdom  and  the  EU  could  result  in  disruption  of  the  exchange  of  people,  business  and  services.  As  a  result, 
uncertainty  regarding  the  relationship  between  the  United  Kingdom  and  the  EU  following  this  exit  may  create  economic  instability  in  the  United 
Kingdom and elsewhere, which could affect our operations, including our access to bank loans, and may lead to an adverse effect on our business. 
While we will seek to minimize associated risk by implementing mitigation plans, any such plans may not be effective.

11

Marine transportation and oil production are inherently risky, and an incident involving loss or damage to a vessel, significant loss of 
product or environmental contamination by any of our vessels could harm our reputation and business.

Our vessels, crew and cargoes are at risk of being damaged, injured or lost because of events such as:

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

marine disaster;

bad weather or natural disasters;

mechanical failures;

grounding, fire, explosions and collisions;

piracy (hijacking and kidnapping);

cyber-attack;

acute-onset illness in connection with global or regional pandemics or similar public health crises;

mental health of crew members;

human error; and

war and terrorism.

An accident involving any of our vessels could result in any of the following:

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

significant litigation with our customers and other third parties;

death or injury to persons, loss of property or environmental damage or pollution;

delays in the delivery of cargo;

liabilities or costs to recover any spilled oil and to restore the environment affected by the spill;

loss of revenues from or termination of charter contracts;

governmental fines, penalties or restrictions on conducting business;

higher insurance rates; and

damage to our reputation and customer relationships generally.

Any of these results could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results. In addition, any damage to, or 
environmental contamination involving, oil production facilities serviced by our vessels could result in the suspension or curtailment of operations by 
our customer, which would in turn result in loss of revenues to us.

The cyclical nature of the tanker industry may lead to volatile changes in charter rates and significant fluctuations in the utilization of our 
vessels, which may adversely affect our earnings and profitability.

Historically,  the  tanker  industry  has  been  cyclical,  experiencing  volatility  in  profitability  due  to  changes  in  the  supply  of  and  demand  for  tanker 
capacity  and  changes  in  the  supply  of  and  demand  for  oil  and  oil  products.  The  cyclical  nature  of  the  tanker  industry  may  cause  significant 
increases or decreases in the revenue we earn from our vessels and may also cause significant increases or decreases in the value of our vessels. 
If  the  tanker  market  is  depressed,  our  earnings  may  decrease,  particularly  with  respect  to  the  conventional  tanker  vessels  owned  by  Teekay 
Tankers,  which  accounted  for  approximately  49%  of  our  consolidated  revenues  during  each  of  2020  and  2019.  These  vessels  are  primarily 
employed on the spot-charter market, which is highly volatile and fluctuates based upon tanker and oil supply and demand. Declining spot rates in a 
given period generally will result in corresponding declines in operating results for that period. The successful operation of our vessels in the spot-
charter market depends upon, among other things, obtaining profitable spot charters and minimizing, to the extent possible, time spent waiting for 
charters and time spent traveling unladen to pick up cargo. Future spot rates may not be sufficient to enable our vessels trading in the spot tanker 
market to operate profitably or to provide sufficient cash flow to service our debt obligations. The factors affecting the supply of and demand for 
tankers are outside of our control, and the nature, timing and degree of changes in industry conditions are unpredictable.

Factors that influence demand for tanker capacity include:

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

demand for oil and oil products;

supply of oil and oil products;

regional availability of refining capacity;

global and regional economic and political conditions;

the distance oil and oil products are to be moved by sea;

demand for floating storage of oil; and

changes in seaborne and other transportation patterns.

Factors that influence the supply of tanker capacity include:

12

•

•

•

•

•

the number of newbuilding deliveries;

the scrapping rate of older vessels;

conversion of tankers to other uses;

the number of vessels that are out of service; and

environmental concerns and regulations.

Changes in demand for transportation of oil over longer distances and in the supply of tankers to carry that oil may materially affect our revenues, 
profitability and cash flows.

The COVID-19 pandemic is dynamic. The continuation of this pandemic, and the emergence of other epidemic or pandemic crises, could 
have material adverse effects on our business, results of operations, or financial condition. 

The novel coronavirus pandemic is dynamic, including the developments of variants of the virus, and its ultimate scope, duration and effects are 
uncertain.  We  expect  that  this  pandemic,  and  any  future  epidemic  or  pandemic  crises,  could  result  in  direct  and  indirect  adverse  effects  on  our 
industry and customers, which in turn may impact our business, results of operations and financial condition. Although global demand for LNG has 
remained relatively stable, the pandemic has resulted and may continue to result in a significant decline in global demand for LPG, crude oil and 
petroleum  products.  As  our  business  includes  the  transportation  of  LNG,  LPG,  oil  and  petroleum  products  on  behalf  of  our  customers,  any 
significant  decrease  in  demand  for  the  cargo  we  transport  could  adversely  affect  demand  for  our  vessels  and  services.  COVID-19  has  been  a 
contributing factor to the decline in spot tanker rates and short-term time charter rates since mid-May 2020 and has also increased certain crewing-
related costs, which has reduced our cash flows, and was a contributing factor to the non-cash write-down of certain of Teekay LNG's multi-gas 
vessels, certain tankers owned by Teekay Tankers and one FPSO unit, as described in "Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 18 - Write-down and 
Loss on Sale.” 

Other effects of the current pandemic include, or may include, among others:

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

disruptions to our operations as a result of the potential health impact on our employees and crew, and on the workforces of our customers
and business partners;

disruptions  to  our  business  from,  or  additional  costs  related  to,  new  regulations,  directives  or  practices  implemented  in  response  to  the
pandemic, such as travel restrictions (including for any of our onshore personnel or any of our crew members to timely embark or disembark
from  our  vessels),  increased  inspection  regimes,  hygiene  measures  (such  as  quarantining  and  physical  distancing)  or  increased
implementation of remote working arrangements;

potential  delays  in  the  loading  and  discharging  of  cargo  on  or  from  our  vessels,  and  any  related  off  hire  due  to  quarantine,  worker  health,
vetting requirements, or regulations, which in turn could disrupt our operations and result in a reduction of revenue;

potential shortages or a lack of access to required spare parts for our vessels, or potential delays in any repairs to, scheduled or unscheduled
maintenance or modifications, or drydocking of, our vessels, as a result of a lack of berths available by shipyards from a shortage in labor or
due to other business disruptions;

potential delays in vessel inspections and related certifications by class societies, customers or government agencies;

potential reduced cash flows and financial condition, including potential liquidity constraints;

reduced  access  to  capital,  including  the  ability  to  refinance  any  existing  obligations,  as  a  result  of  any  credit  tightening  generally  or  due  to
declines in global financial markets, including to the prices of publicly-traded securities of us, our peers and of listed companies generally;

a  reduced  ability  to  opportunistically  sell  any  of  our  vessels  on  the  second-hand  market,  either  as  a  result  of  a  lack  of  buyers  or  a  general
decline in the value of second-hand vessels;

a decline in the market value of our vessels, which may cause us to (a) incur additional impairment charges or (b) breach certain covenants
under our financing agreements (including our secured facility agreements and financial leases) relating to vessel-to-loan covenants; and

potential  deterioration  in  the  financial  condition  and  prospects  of  our  customers,  or  joint  venture  or  business  partners,  or  attempts  by
customers or third parties to invoke force majeure contractual clauses as a result of delays or other disruptions.

Although  disruption  and  effects  from  the  COVID-19  pandemic  may  be  temporary  or  moderated  by  expanding  vaccine  accessibility,  given  the 
dynamic nature of these circumstances and the worldwide nature of our business and operations, the duration of any potential business disruption 
and  the  related  potential  financial  impact  to  us  cannot  be  reasonably  estimated  at  this  time  but  could  materially  affect  our  business,  results  of 
operations and financial condition in the future.

Terrorist attacks, increased hostilities, political change or war could lead to further economic instability, increased costs and business 
disruption.

Terrorist attacks, and the current or future conflicts in Libya, the Middle East, East Asia, South East Asia, West Africa and elsewhere, and political 
change, may adversely affect our business, operating results, financial condition, and ability to raise capital and future growth. Recent hostilities in 
the Middle East especially among Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Iran, Yemen and elsewhere may lead to additional armed conflicts 
or to further acts of terrorism and civil disturbance in the United States or elsewhere, which may contribute to economic instability and disruption of 
oil, LNG and LPG production and distribution, which could result in reduced demand for our services and have an adverse impact on our operations 
and or our ability to conduct business.

13

In addition, oil facilities, shipyards, vessels, pipelines and oil fields could be targets of future terrorist attacks and warlike operations and our vessels 
could be targets of hijackers, terrorists or warlike operations. Any such attacks could lead to, among other things, bodily injury or loss of life, vessel 
or other property damage, increased vessel operational costs, including insurance costs, and the inability to transport oil to or from certain locations. 
Terrorist attacks, war, hijacking or other events beyond our control that adversely affect the distribution, production or transportation of oil, LNG and 
LPG to be shipped by us could entitle customers to terminate charters, which would harm our cash flow and business.

Acts of piracy on ocean-going vessels continue to be a risk, which could adversely affect our business.

Acts of piracy have historically affected ocean-going vessels trading in regions of the world such as the South China Sea, Gulf of Guinea and the 
Indian Ocean off the coast of Somalia. While there continues to be a significant risk of piracy incidents in the Southern Red Sea, Gulf of Aden and 
Indian Ocean, recently there have been increases in the frequency and severity of piracy incidents off the coast of West Africa and a resurgent risk 
of piracy and/or armed robbery in the Straits of Malacca, Sulu & Celebes Sea, Gulf of Mexico and surrounding waters. If these piracy attacks result 
in regions in which our vessels are deployed being named on the Joint War Committee Listed Areas, war risk insurance premiums payable for such 
coverage may increase significantly and such insurance coverage may be more difficult to obtain. In addition, crew costs, including costs which are 
incurred to the extent we employ on-board security guards and escort vessels, could increase in such circumstances. We may not be adequately 
insured to cover losses from these incidents, which could have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, hijacking as a result of an act of piracy 
against our vessels, or an increase in cost or unavailability of insurance for our vessels, could have a material adverse impact on our business, 
financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Related to Our Business

Adverse economic conditions or other developments may affect our customers’ ability to charter our vessels and pay for our services 
and may adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Adverse economic conditions or other developments relating directly to our customers may lead to a decline in our customers’ operations or ability 
to pay for our services, which could result in decreased demand for our vessels and services. Our customers’ inability to pay for any reason could 
also result in their default on our current contracts and charters. The decline in the amount of services requested by our customers or their default 
on our contracts with them could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The intense competition in our markets may lead to reduced profitability or reduced expansion opportunities.

Our  vessels  operate  in  highly  competitive  markets.  Competition  arises  primarily  from  other  vessel  owners,  including  major  oil  companies  and 
independent  companies.  We  also  compete  with  owners  of  other  size  vessels.  Our  market  share  is  insufficient  to  enforce  any  degree  of  pricing 
discipline in the markets in which we operate, and our competitive position may erode in the future. Any new markets that we enter could include 
participants that have greater financial strength and capital resources than we have. We may not be successful in entering new markets.

One of our objectives is to enter into additional long-term, fixed-rate charters for our LNG and LPG carriers. The process of obtaining new long-term 
time  charters  is  highly  competitive  and  generally  involves  an  intensive  screening  process  and  competitive  bids,  and  often  extends  for  several 
months. We expect competition for providing services for potential gas and offshore projects from other experienced companies, including state-
sponsored entities. Our competitors may have greater financial resources than us. This increased competition may cause greater price competition 
for charters. As a result of these factors, we may be unable to expand our relationships with existing customers or to obtain new customers on a 
profitable basis, if at all, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The loss of any key customer or its inability to pay for our services could result in a significant loss of revenue in a given period.

We have derived, and believe that we will continue to derive, a significant portion of our revenues from a limited number of customers. No customer 
accounted for over 10% of our consolidated revenues during 2020 (2019 – one customer for 12%, or $227.6 million; 2018 – one customer for 11%, 
or $195.0 million). The loss of any significant customer or a substantial decline in the amount of services requested by a significant customer, or the 
inability of a significant customer to pay for our services, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of 
operations.

We could lose a customer or the benefits of a contract if:

•

•

•

•

•

•

the customer fails to make payments because of its financial inability, disagreements with us or otherwise;

we agree to reduce the payments due to us under a contract because of the customer’s inability to continue making the original payments;

upon our breach of the relevant contract, the customer exercises certain rights to terminate the contract;

the customer terminates the contract because we fail to deliver the vessel within a fixed period of time, the vessel is lost or damaged beyond
repair, there are serious deficiencies in the vessel or prolonged periods of off-hire, or we default under the contract;

under  some  of  our  contracts,  the  customer  terminates  the  contract  because  of  the  termination  of  the  customer's  sales  agreement  or  a
prolonged force majeure affecting the customer, including damage to or destruction of relevant facilities, war or political unrest preventing us
from performing services for that customer; or

the customer becomes subject to applicable sanctions laws which prohibit our ability to lawfully charter our vessel to such customer.

If we lose a key customer, we may be unable to obtain replacement long-term charters. If a customer exercises its right under some charters to 
purchase  the  vessel,  or  terminate  the  charter,  we  may  be  unable  to  acquire  an  adequate  replacement  vessel  or  charter.  Any  replacement 
newbuilding would not generate revenues during its construction and we may be unable to charter any replacement vessel on terms as favorable to 
us as those of the terminated charter.

14

The loss of any of our significant customers or a reduction in revenues from them could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of 
operations and financial condition and our ability to pay dividends and service our debt.

Two of the six MALT LNG Carriers in Teekay LNG's 52%-owned MALT Joint Venture, the Marib Spirit and Arwa Spirit, were chartered-out to Yemen 
LNG under long-term charter contracts with YLNG. However, due to the political unrest in Yemen, YLNG decided to temporarily close operation of 
its LNG plant in Yemen in 2015. As a result, commencing January 1, 2016, the MALT Joint Venture agreed to successive deferral arrangements 
with  YLNG  pursuant  to  which  a  portion  of  the  charter  payments  were  deferred.  Concurrently  with  the  expiration  of  the  most  recent  deferral 
arrangement,  in April  2019,  the  MALT  Joint  Venture  entered  into  a  suspension  agreement  with  YLNG  (the  Suspension  Agreement)  pursuant  to 
which  the  MALT  Joint  Venture  and  YLNG  agreed  to  suspend  the  two  charter  contracts  for  a  period  of  up  to  three  years  from  the  date  of  the 
agreement. 

Our ability to repay or refinance debt obligations and to fund capital expenditures will depend on certain financial, business and other 
factors, many of which are beyond our control. We will need to obtain additional financing, which financing may limit our ability to make 
cash dividends and distributions, increase our financial leverage and result in dilution to our equityholders. 

To fund existing and future debt obligations and capital expenditures and to meet the minimum liquidity requirements under the financial covenants 
in  our  credit  facilities,  we  will  be  required  to  obtain  additional  sources  of  financing,  in  addition  to  amounts  generated  from  operations.  These 
anticipated sources of financing include raising additional debt and capital, including equity issuances.

Our  ability  to  obtain  external  financing  may  be  limited  by  our  financial  condition  at  the  time  of  any  such  financing  as  well  as  by  adverse  market 
conditions  in  general.  Even  if  we  are  successful  in  obtaining  necessary  funds,  the  terms  of  such  financings  could  limit  our  ability  to  pay  cash 
dividends or distributions to security holders or operate our businesses as currently conducted. In addition, issuing additional equity securities may 
result  in  significant  equityholder  dilution  and  would  increase  the  aggregate  amount  of  cash  required  to  maintain  quarterly  dividends  and 
distributions.  The  sale  of  certain  assets  will  reduce  cash  from  operations  and  the  cash  available  for  distribution  to  equityholders.  For  more 
information on our liquidity requirements, please read “Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 16b – Commitments and Contingencies – Liquidity."

Charter rates for conventional oil and product tankers may fluctuate substantially over time and may be lower when we are attempting to 
re-charter  these  vessels,  which  could  adversely  affect  our  operating  results.  Any  changes  in  charter  rates  for  LNG  carriers  and  LPG 
carriers could also adversely affect redeployment opportunities for those vessels.

Our ability to re-charter our conventional oil and product tankers following expiration of existing time-charter contracts and the rates payable upon 
any  renewal  or  replacement  charters  will  depend  upon,  among  other  things,  the  state  of  the  conventional  tanker  market.  Conventional  oil  and 
product tanker trades are highly competitive and have experienced significant fluctuations in charter rates based on, among other things, oil, refined 
petroleum product and vessel demand. For example, an oversupply of conventional oil tankers can significantly reduce their charter rates. There 
also exists volatility in charter rates for LNG and LPG carriers, which could also adversely affect redeployment opportunities for those vessels. If 
upon  scheduled  expiration  or  any  early  termination  we  are  unable  to  renew  or  replace  fixed-rate  charters  on  favorable  terms,  if  at  all,  or  if  we 
choose not to renew or replace fixed-rate charters, we may employ applicable vessels in the volatile spot market. Increasing our exposure to the 
spot market, particularly during periods of unfavorable market conditions, could harm our results of operations and make them more volatile.

Current market conditions limit our access to capital and our growth.

We have relied primarily upon bank financing and debt and equity offerings, primarily by the Daughter Entities, to fund our growth. Current market 
conditions generally in the energy and shipping sectors and for master limited partnerships have significantly reduced our and the Daughter Entities’ 
access  to  capital,  particularly  equity  capital,  compared  to  periods  prior  to  mid-2014.  Issuing  additional  common  equity  given  current  market 
conditions is more dilutive and costly than it has been in the past. Lack of access to debt or equity capital at reasonable rates would adversely affect 
our growth prospects and our ability to refinance debt and pay dividends to our equityholders.

Our  future  performance  and  ability  to  secure  future  employment  for  our  LNG  and  LPG  vessels  depends  on  continued  growth  in  LNG 
production, demand and supply for LNG and LPG, and associated demand and supply for LNG and LPG shipping.

A  significant  portion  of  our  future  performance  will  depend  on  growth  in  LNG  production,  demand  and  supply  for  LNG  and  LPG,  and  associated 
demand and supply for LNG and LPG shipping services. 

Expansion  of  the  LNG  and  LPG  shipping  sectors  depends  on  growth  in  world  and  regional  demand  and  supply  for  LNG  and  LPG  and  marine 
transportation of LNG and LPG, as well as the supply of LNG and LPG. Demand or supply for LNG and LPG and for the marine transportation of 
LNG and LPG could be negatively affected by a number of factors, such as:

•

•

•

•

•

•

increases in the cost of natural gas derived from LNG relative to the cost of natural gas generally;

increases in the cost of LPG relative to the cost of naphtha and other competing petrochemicals;

increases in the production of natural gas in areas linked by pipelines to consuming areas, the extension of existing, or the development of
new,  pipeline  systems  in  markets  we  may  serve,  or  the  conversion  of  existing  non-natural  gas  pipelines  to  natural  gas  pipelines  in  those
markets;

decreases in the consumption of natural gas due to increases in its price relative to other energy sources or other factors making consumption
of natural gas less attractive;

increases in availability of additional sources of natural gas, including shale gas;

increases in the number of LNG or LPG newbuilding vessels, which could lead to an oversupply of vessels in the market and in turn create
downward pressure on the demand for LNG and LPG shipping services;

15

•

•

•

changes  in  weather  patterns  leading  to  warmer  winters  in  the  Northern  Hemisphere  and  lower  gas  demand  in  the  tradition  peak  heating
season;

increases in availability of alternative or renewable energy sources; and

negative  global  or  regional  economic  or  political  conditions,  particularly  in  LNG  and  LPG  consuming  regions,  which  could  reduce  energy
consumption or its rate of growth, including labor or political unrest or military conflicts affecting existing or proposed areas of LNG production
or regasification.

Furthermore,  spot  charter  rates  initially  came  under  pressure  commencing  in  February  2020  due  to  the  impact  of  the  COVID-19  pandemic.  In 
addition,  trading  prices  of  our  equity  securities  have  been  volatile  due  in  part  to  the  recent  impact  of  the  pandemic  on  the  energy  and  financial 
markets overall. The ongoing pandemic may significantly impact global economic activity (including the demand for LNG and LPG, and associated 
shipping rates, which may in turn negatively affect our spot chartered vessels) and may disrupt, delay or lead to cancellations of the construction of 
new  LNG  projects  (including  production,  liquefaction,  regasification,  storage  and  distribution  facilities),  which  in  turn  could  negatively  affect  our 
business, results of operations and financial condition.

Reduced demand for LNG and LPG shipping could have a material adverse effect on our future growth and could harm our business, results of 
operations and financial condition.

Teekay LNG may have more difficulty entering into long-term, fixed-rate LNG time-charters if the active short-term, medium-term or spot 
LNG shipping markets continue to develop.

LNG  shipping  historically  has  been  transacted  with  long-term,  fixed-rate  time-charters,  usually  with  terms  ranging  from  15  to  20  years.  One  of 
Teekay LNG’s principal strategies is to enter into additional long-term, fixed-rate LNG time-charters. In recent years, the amount of LNG traded on a 
spot and short-term basis (defined as contracts with a duration of three years or less) has been increasing. 

If the active spot, short-term or medium-term markets continue to develop, Teekay LNG may have increased difficulty entering into long-term, fixed-
rate time-charters for its LNG carriers and, as a result, its cash flow may decrease and be less stable. In addition, an active short-term, medium-
term  or  spot  LNG  shipping  market  may  require  Teekay  LNG  to  enter  into  charters  with  rates  based  on  changing  market  prices,  as  opposed  to 
contracts based on a fixed rate, which could result in a decrease in its cash flow in periods when the market price for shipping LNG is depressed.

Reductions to the value of the Teekay LNG common units and Teekay Tankers common stock pledged as collateral for our equity margin 
credit facility could result in breaches of such credit facility.

Teekay Parent’s $150 million equity margin revolving credit facility is secured by common units of Teekay LNG and shares of Class A common stock 
of Teekay Tankers that are owned by Teekay Parent. Availability under the credit facility relates to the value of the common units and common stock 
pledged as collateral for the facility. The value of the pledged securities of Teekay LNG and Teekay Tankers will likely vary significantly over time 
due to various factors affecting the trading prices of such securities, including many factors outside our or their control. If the value of the collateral 
were  to  decline  and  to  cause  loan-to-value  requirements  in  the  credit  facility  not  to  be  satisfied,  and  we  are  unable  to  effect  a  cure  within  the 
applicable  grace  period,  our  lenders  could  accelerate  our  debt  and  require  us  to  repay  all  outstanding  amounts  in  full  and/or  terminate  the 
commitments under the facility. If we are unable to repay such amounts from our liquidity reserves or other sources of financing, our lenders could 
enforce  on  our  collateral  security  under  the  facility  (including  the  pledged  securities),  which  could  adversely  affect  our  business,  results  of 
operations and financial condition. No amount is drawn under the equity margin revolving credit facility as of the date of this Annual Report.

Declining market values of our vessels could adversely affect our liquidity and result in breaches of our financing agreements.

Market  values  of  vessels  fluctuate  depending  upon  general  economic  and  market  conditions  affecting  relevant  markets  and  industries  and 
competition from other shipping companies and other modes of transportation. In addition, as vessels become older, they generally decline in value. 
Declining vessel values could adversely affect our liquidity by limiting our ability to raise cash by refinancing vessels. Declining vessel values could 
also result in a breach of loan and obligations under finance lease covenants and events of default under certain of our credit facilities that require 
us  to  maintain  certain  loan-to-value  ratios.  If  we  are  unable  to  cure  any  such  breach  within  the  prescribed  cure  period  in  a  particular  financing 
facility,  the  lenders  under  these  facilities  could  accelerate  our  debt  or  obligations  under  finance  lease  and  foreclose  on  our  vessels  pledged  as 
collateral or require an early termination of the credit facility or finance lease. In certain circumstances, such a breach could result in cross-defaults 
under our other financing agreements. As of December 31, 2020, the total outstanding debt credit facilities and obligations under finance leases 
with this type of loan-to-value covenant tied to conventional tanker values was $609.6 million and tied to LNG carrier values was $359.4 million. We 
have  nine  financing  arrangements  that  require  us  to  maintain  vessel  value  to  outstanding  loan  and  lease  principal  balance  ratios  ranging  from 
77.5% to 135%. As of December 31, 2020, we were in compliance with these required ratios.

Over time, the value of our vessels may decline, which could adversely affect our operating results.

Vessel  values  for  oil  and  product  tankers,  and  LNG  and  LPG  carriers  can  fluctuate  substantially  over  time  due  to  a  number  of  different  factors, 
including:

•

•

•

•

•

prevailing economic conditions in oil and energy markets;

a substantial or extended decline in demand for oil or natural gas;

increases in the supply of vessel capacity;

the age of the vessel relative to other alternative vessels that are available in the market;

competition from more technologically advanced vessels; and

16

•

the cost of retrofitting or modifying existing vessels, as a result of technological advances in vessel design or equipment, changes in applicable
environmental or other regulations or standards, or otherwise.

Vessel values may decline from existing levels. If operation of a vessel is not profitable, or if we cannot redeploy a chartered vessel at attractive 
rates upon charter termination, rather than continue to incur costs to maintain and finance the vessel, we may seek to dispose of it. Our inability to 
dispose of the vessel at a fair market value or the disposal of the vessel at a fair market value that is lower than its book value could result in a loss 
on its sale and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. 

Further, if we determine at any time that a vessel’s future useful life and earnings require us to impair its value on our financial statements, we may 
need  to  recognize  a  significant  impairment  charge  against  our  earnings.  Such  a  determination  involves  numerous  assumptions  and  estimates, 
some  of  which  require  more  discretion  and  are  less  predictable.  We  recognized  asset  impairment  charges  of  $188.7  million,  $182.3  million  and 
$53.9 million in 2020, 2019, and 2018, respectively. The 2020 charge included impairments of $70.7 million for two of our FPSO units, the Petrojarl 
Banff and Sevan Hummingbird, $51.0 million for seven of Teekay LNG’s multi-gas carriers and $67.0 million for nine of Teekay Tankers’ Aframax 
tankers. The 2019 charge included impairments of $178.3 million for three of our FPSO units, the Petrojarl Banff, Sevan Hummingbird and Petrojarl 
Foinaven. The FPSO units were fully written down in 2020. If a unit is not redeployed or sold on termination of its contract, we may incur costs to 
decommission and scrap the unit.

We  have  recognized  asset  impairments  in  the  past  and  we  may  recognize  additional  impairments  in  the  future,  which  will  reduce  our 
earnings and net assets.

If we determine at any time that an asset has been impaired, we may need to recognize an impairment charge that will reduce our earnings and net 
assets. We review our vessels for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may 
not be recoverable, which occurs when an asset's carrying value is greater than the estimated undiscounted future cash flows the asset is expected 
to generate over its remaining useful life. We review our goodwill for impairment annually and if a reporting unit's goodwill carrying value is greater 
than  the  estimated  fair  value,  the  goodwill  attributable  to  that  reporting  unit  is  impaired.  We  evaluate  our  investments  in  equity-accounted  joint 
ventures for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such investment may have experienced an other-than-
temporary decline in value below its carrying value. 

Our cash flow depends substantially on the ability of our subsidiaries, primarily our Daughter Entities, to make distributions to us. 

The  source  of  our  cash  flow  includes  cash  distributions  and  dividends  from  our  subsidiaries,  primarily  Teekay  LNG  and  Teekay  Tankers.  The 
amount  of  cash  our  subsidiaries  can  distribute  to  us  principally  depends  upon  the  amount  of  distributions  or  dividend  declared  by  each  of  their 
Boards of Directors and the amount of cash they generate from their operations. Teekay LNG has paid a quarterly distribution of $0.25 per common 
unit  commencing  with  its  quarterly  distribution  paid  in  May  2020  and  anticipates  increasing  the  distribution  amount  to  $0.2875  per  common  unit 
commencing with the first quarter of 2021 quarterly distributions to be paid in May 2021. Teekay Tankers has not paid a quarterly dividend since 
March 2018, as it focuses on building net asset value through balance sheet delevering and reducing its cost of capital. 

The amount of cash our subsidiaries generate from their operations may fluctuate from quarter-to-quarter based on, among other things:

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

the rates they obtain from their charters, voyages and contracts;

the price and level of production of, and demand for, crude oil, LNG and LPG;

the level of their operating costs, such as the cost of crews and repairs and maintenance;

the number of off-hire days for their vessels and the timing of, and number of days required for, dry docking of vessels;

the rates, if any, at which our subsidiaries may be able to redeploy vessels, after they complete their charters or contracts and are redelivered
to us;

the rates, if any, at which Teekay Tankers can deploy tankers in the spot market;

delays in the delivery of any future newbuildings or in any future conversions of upgrades of existing vessels, and the beginning of payments
under charters relating to those vessels;

the utilization levels of their vessels trading in the spot or short-term market;

prevailing global and regional economic and political conditions;

currency exchange rate fluctuations; and

the effect of governmental regulations and maritime self-regulatory organization standards on the conduct of business.

The actual amount of cash our subsidiaries have available for distribution also depends on other factors such as:

•

•

•

•

•

the  level  of  their  capital  expenditures,  including  for  maintaining  vessels  or  converting  existing  vessels  for  other  uses  and  complying  with
regulations;

their  debt  service  and  cash  reserve  requirements,  financial  covenants  and  restrictions  on  distributions  contained  in  their  debt  agreements,
including financial ratio covenants which may indirectly restrict loans, distributions or dividends;

fluctuations in their working capital needs;

their ability to make working capital borrowings; and

the amount of any cash reserves, including reserves for future working capital and other matters, established by the Boards of Directors of the
Daughter Entities at their discretion.

17

The amount of cash our subsidiaries generate from operations may differ materially from their profit or loss for the period, which will be affected by 
non-cash items and the timing of debt service payments. As a result of this and the other factors mentioned above, our subsidiaries may make cash 
distributions during periods when they record losses and may not make cash distributions during periods when they record net income.

Teekay Parent may need to divest assets or issue additional securities to raise capital to meet its future liquidity needs.

As at December 31, 2020, Teekay Parent had total cash and cash equivalents of $44.8 million and total liquidity, including cash, cash equivalents 
and undrawn credit facilities, of $173.4 million. As at December 31, 2020, the outstanding principal amounts of Teekay Parent’s 9.25% senior notes 
that  mature  in  November  2022  and  of  its  5.0%  convertible  senior  notes  that  mature  in  January  2023  were  $243.4  million  and  $112.2  million, 
respectively. If we are unable to meet these or other liquidity needs or to refinance these future obligations, we may need to evaluate alternatives 
such  as  divesting  of  interests  in  the  Daughter  Entities  or  other  assets  or  seeking  to  raise  capital  through  the  issuance  of  debt,  hybrid  or  equity 
securities. However, there can be no assurance that we would be able to complete any such transactions on acceptable terms, if at all. 

Our insurance may not be sufficient to cover losses that may occur to our property or as a result of our operations.

The operation of oil and product tankers, lightering vessels, oil and gas transfer operations, LNG and LPG carriers, FPSO units and LNG Facilities 
is inherently risky. Although we carry hull and machinery (marine and war risk) and protection and indemnity insurance, and other liability insurance 
covers, all risks may not be adequately insured against, and any particular claim may not be paid or paid in full. In addition, only certain of our LNG 
and  LPG  carriers  carry  insurance  covering  the  loss  of  revenues  resulting  from  vessel  off-hire  time  based  on  its  cost  compared  to  our  off-hire 
experience. Any significant off-hire time of our vessels could harm our business, operating results and financial condition. Any claims relating to our 
operations  covered  by  insurance  would  be  subject  to  deductibles,  and  since  it  is  possible  that  a  large  number  of  claims  may  be  brought,  the 
aggregate amount of these deductibles could be material. Certain of our insurance coverage is maintained through mutual protection and indemnity 
associations  and  as  a  member  of  such  associations  we  may  be  required  to  make  additional  payments  over  and  above  budgeted  premiums  if 
member claims exceed association reserves. In addition, the cost of this protection and indemnity coverage has significantly increased and may 
continue to increase. Even if our insurance coverage is adequate to cover our losses, we may not be able to obtain a timely replacement vessel in 
the event of a total loss of a vessel.

We  may  be  unable  to  procure  adequate  insurance  coverage  at  commercially  reasonable  rates  in  the  future.  For  example,  more  stringent 
environmental regulations have led in the past to increased costs for, and in the future may result in the lack of availability of, insurance against 
risks  of  environmental  damage  or  pollution.  A  catastrophic  oil  spill,  marine  disaster  or  natural  disaster  could  result  in  losses  that  exceed  our 
insurance coverage, which could harm our business, financial condition and operating results. Any uninsured or under-insured loss could harm our 
business and financial condition. In addition, our insurance may be voidable by the insurers as a result of certain of our actions, such as our ships 
failing to maintain certification with applicable maritime regulatory organizations.

Changes in the insurance markets attributable to structural changes in insurance markets, economic factors, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, 
outbreaks of communicable diseases, terrorist attacks, environmental catastrophes or political changes may also make certain types of insurance 
more difficult for us to obtain. In addition, the insurance that may be available may be significantly more expensive than our existing coverage or be 
available only with restrictive terms.

The duration of our FPSO contracts is the life of the relevant oil field or is subject to early termination options by the field operator or 
vessel charterer. If the oil field no longer produces oil or is abandoned or the contract term is terminated early or not extended, we will 
no longer generate revenue under the related contract and will need to seek to redeploy, sell or scrap the affected vessels.

As at December 31, 2020, we had two FPSO units operating in our fleet. The duration of our FPSO contract for the Sevan Hummingbird FPSO unit 
is  subject  to  early  termination  options. The  likelihood  of  the  contract  being  terminated  early  may  be  negatively  affected  by  reductions  in  oil  field 
reserves, low oil prices generally or other factors. If we are unable to promptly redeploy the unit at rates at least equal to those under the existing 
contract,  if  at  all,  our  operating  results  will  be  harmed. Any  potential  redeployment  may  not  be  under  a  long-term  contract,  which  may  affect  the 
stability of our business and operating results. If the unit is not redeployed or sold, we may incur costs to decommission and scrap the unit.

On termination of the FPSO contract for the Petrojarl Foinaven FPSO unit, it will be recycled in accordance with EU ship recycling regulations. We 
expect to receive a lump sum payment from the customer at the end of the contract, which may not cover the costs of recycling the FPSO unit.

Factors  that  may  affect  an  operator’s  decision  to  initiate  or  continue  production  include:  changes  in  oil  prices;  capital  budget  limitations;  the 
availability  of  necessary  drilling  and  other  governmental  permits;  the  availability  of  qualified  personnel  and  equipment;  the  quality  of  drilling 
prospects in the area; and regulatory changes. The rate of oil production at fields we service may decline from existing or future levels, and may be 
terminated, which could harm our business and operating results. Oil production levels are affected by several factors, all of which are beyond our 
control, including: geologic factors, including general declines in production that occur naturally over time; mechanical failure or operator error; the 
rate  of  technical  developments  in  extracting  oil  and  related  infrastructure  and  implementation  costs;  and  operator  decisions  based  on  revenue 
compared to costs from continued operations.

In the first quarter of 2020, CNR International (U.K.) Limited (or CNRI) provided formal notice to Teekay of its intention to decommission the Banff 
field and remove the Petrojarl Banff FPSO and the Apollo Spirit FSO from the field in 2020. The oil production under the existing contract for the 
Petrojarl  Banff  FPSO  unit  ceased  on  June  1,  2020,  at  which  time  Teekay  Parent  began  incurring  decommissioning/asset  retirement  costs.  The 
actual asset retirement and decommissioning costs may exceed our current estimates.

We have substantial debt levels and may incur additional debt.

As of December 31, 2020, our consolidated long-term debt and obligations related to finance leases totaled $3.8 billion and we had the capacity to 
borrow an additional $0.6 billion under our revolving credit facilities. These credit facilities may be used by us for general corporate purposes. In 
addition to our consolidated debt, our total proportionate interest in debt of joint ventures we do not control was $2.1 billion as of December 31, 
2020, of which Teekay Tankers or Teekay LNG has guaranteed $1.2 billion and the remaining $0.9 billion has limited or no recourse to Teekay LNG. 
Our  consolidated  debt,  finance  lease  obligations  and  joint  venture  debt  could  increase  substantially.  We  will  continue  to  have  the  ability  to  incur 
additional debt, subject to limitations in our credit facilities. Our level of debt could have important consequences to us, including:

•

•

•

•

our ability to obtain additional financing, if necessary, for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or other purposes, and our ability to
refinance our credit facilities may be impaired or such financing may not be available on favorable terms, if at all;

we will need to use a substantial portion of our cash flow to make principal and interest payments on our debt, reducing the funds that would
otherwise be available for operations, future business opportunities, repurchases of equity securities and dividends to shareholders;

our debt level may make us more vulnerable than our competitors with less debt to competitive pressures or a downturn in our industry or the
economy generally; and

our  debt  level  may  limit  our  flexibility  in  obtaining  additional  financing,  pursuing  other  business  opportunities  and  responding  to  changing
business and economic conditions.

Exposure to interest rate fluctuations will result in fluctuations in our cash flows and operating results.

We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes primarily through our borrowings that require us to make interest payments based on LIBOR, 
EURIBOR or NIBOR. Significant increases in interest rates could adversely affect our profit margins, results of operations and our ability to service 
our debt and finance lease obligations. In accordance with our risk management policy, we use interest rate swaps on certain of our debt and cross 
currency swaps on the NOK bonds to reduce our exposure to market risk from changes in interest rates. The principal objective of these contracts 
is to minimize the risks and costs associated with our floating rate debt. However, any hedging activities entered into by us may not be effective in 
fully mitigating our interest rate risk from our variable rate indebtedness.

In addition, we are exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the counterparties to the interest rate swap agreements. For further 
information about our financial instruments at December 31, 2020, that are sensitive to changes in interest rates, please read "Item 11 - Quantitative 
and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk."

Use of LIBOR is currently scheduled to cease in the future, and interest rates on our LIBOR-based obligations may increase in the future.

LIBOR  is  the  subject  of  recent  national,  international  and  other  regulatory  guidance  and  proposals  for  reform.  In  March  2021,  the  UK  Financial 
Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, announced that it will cease the publication of LIBOR after December 31, 2021, with the exception of 
certain  tenors  of  U.S.  dollar  LIBOR  which  will  cease  publication  after  June  30,  2023.  It  is  unclear  whether  an  extension  will  be  granted  or  new 
methods of calculating LIBOR will be established such that it continues to exist after the scheduled expiration dates, or if alternative rates will be 
adopted. Global regulators are working with the financial sector to transition away from the use of LIBOR and towards the adoption of alternative 
reference  rates.  For  example,  the  U.S.  Federal  Reserve,  in  conjunction  with  the Alternative  Reference  Rates  Committee,  a  steering  committee 
comprised  of  large  U.S.  financial  institutions,  is  considering  replacing  U.S.  dollar  LIBOR  with  a  new  index  calculated  by  short-term  repurchase 
agreements, backed by Treasury securities (or SOFR). SOFR is observed and backward-looking, which stands in contrast with LIBOR under the 
current methodology, which is an estimated forward-looking rate and relies, to some degree, on the expert judgment of submitting panel members. 
Whether  or  not  SOFR  attains  market  acceptance  as  a  LIBOR  replacement  tool  remains  in  question  and  there  can  be  no  assurance  that  the 
transition to a new benchmark rate or other financial metric will be an adequate alternative to LIBOR or produce the economic equivalent of LIBOR. 
As a result, it is not possible at this time to know the ultimate impact that a phase-out of LIBOR may have. 

While some of the agreements governing our revolving credit facilities, term loan facilities, interest rate swaps and finance lease facilities provide for 
an  alternate  method  of  calculating  interest  rates  in  the  event  that  a  LIBOR  rate  is  unavailable,  if  LIBOR  ceases  to  exist  or  if  the  methods  of 
calculating  LIBOR  change  from  their  current  form,  there  may  be  adverse  impacts  on  the  financial  markets  generally  and  interest  rates  on 
borrowings  under  our  revolving  credit  facilities,  term  loan  facilities,  interest  rate  swaps  and  finance  lease  facilities  may  be  materially  adversely 
affected. 

In addition, we may need to renegotiate certain LIBOR-based revolving credit facilities, term loan facilities, interest rate swaps and finance lease 
facilities,  which  could  adversely  impact  our  cost  of  debt.  There  can  be  no  assurance  that  we  will  be  able  to  modify  existing  documentation  or 
renegotiate existing transactions before the discontinuation of LIBOR.

Financing agreements containing operating and financial restrictions may restrict our business and financing activities.

The operating and financial restrictions and covenants in our revolving credit facilities, term loans, lease obligations, indentures and in any of our 
future financing agreements could adversely affect our ability to finance future operations or capital needs or to pursue and expand our business 
activities. For example, these financing arrangements restrict our ability to:

•

•

•

•

•

•

incur additional indebtedness and guarantee indebtedness;

pay dividends or make other distributions or repurchase or redeem our capital stock;

prepay, redeem or repurchase certain debt;

issue certain preferred shares or similar equity securities;

make loans and investments;

enter into a new line of business;

19

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

incur or permit certain liens to exist;

enter into transactions with affiliates;

create unrestricted subsidiaries;

transfer, sell, convey or otherwise dispose of assets;

make certain acquisitions and investments;

enter into agreements restricting our subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends; and

consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of our assets.

In  addition,  certain  of  our  debt  agreements  require  us  to  comply  with  certain  financial  covenants.  Our  ability  to  comply  with  covenants  and 
restrictions  contained  in  debt  instruments  and  finance  lease  obligations  may  be  affected  by  events  beyond  our  control,  including  prevailing 
economic, financial and industry conditions. If any such events were to occur, we may fail to comply with these covenants. If we breach any of the 
restrictions, covenants, ratios or tests in our financing agreements or indentures and we are unable to cure such breach within the prescribed cure 
period, our obligations may, at the election of the relevant lender, become immediately due and payable, and the lenders’ commitment under our 
credit  facilities,  if  any,  to  make  further  loans  available  to  us  may  terminate.  In  certain  circumstances,  this  could  lead  to  cross-defaults  under  our 
other financing agreements which in turn could result in obligations becoming due and commitments being terminated under such agreements. A 
default  under  financing  agreements  could  also  result  in  foreclosure  on  any  of  our  vessels  and  other  assets  securing  related  loans  and  finance 
leases or our need to sell assets or take other actions in order to meet our debt obligations.

Furthermore,  the  termination  of  any  of  our  charter  contracts  by  our  customers  could  result  in  the  repayment  of  the  debt  facilities  to  which  the 
chartered vessels relate.

Our  and  many  of  our  customers’  substantial  operations  outside  the  United  States  expose  us  and  them  to  political,  governmental  and 
economic instability, which could harm our operations.

Because our operations, and the operations of certain of our customers, are primarily conducted outside of the United States, they may be affected 
by  economic,  political  and  governmental  conditions  in  the  countries  where  we  or  our  customers  engage  in  business,  or  where  our  vessels  are 
registered. Any disruption caused by these factors could harm our business, including through reduction in the levels of oil exploration, development 
and  production  activities  in  these  areas  or  restricting  the  pool  of  customers.  We  derive  some  of  our  revenues  from  shipping  oil  and  gas  from 
politically and economically unstable regions. Conflicts in these regions have included attacks on ships and other efforts to disrupt shipping. 

Hostilities, strikes, or other political or economic instability in regions where we operate or where we may operate could have a material adverse 
effect on the growth of our business, results of operations and financial condition and ability to make cash distributions. In addition, tariffs, trade 
embargoes and other economic sanctions by the United States or other countries against countries in which we operate, or to which we trade, or to 
which we or any of our customers, joint venture partners or business partners become subject, could harm our business and ability to make cash 
distributions. For example, general trade tensions between the United States and China escalated in 2018 and continued through much of 2019, 
with the United States imposing a series of tariffs on China and China responding by imposing tariffs on United States products. Although during the 
last quarter of 2019, the United States and China negotiated an agreement to reduce trade tensions which became effective in February 2020, our 
business  could  be  harmed  by  increasing  trade  protectionism  or  trade  tensions  between  the  United  States  and  China,  as  well  as  any  trade 
embargoes or other economic sanctions by the United States or other countries against countries in the Middle East, Asia, Russia or elsewhere as 
a result of terrorist attacks, hostilities, or diplomatic or political pressures that limit trading activities with those countries. In addition, a government 
could requisition one or more of our vessels, which is most likely during war or national emergency. Any such requisition would cause a loss of the 
vessel and could harm our cash flow and financial results. 

Maritime claimants could arrest, or port authorities could detain, our vessels, which could interrupt our cash flow.

Crew  members,  suppliers  of  goods  and  services  to  a  vessel,  shippers  of  cargo  and  other  parties  may  be  entitled  to  a  maritime  lien  against  that 
vessel  for  unsatisfied  debts,  claims  or  damages.  In  many  jurisdictions,  a  maritime  lienholder  may  enforce  its  lien  by  arresting  a  vessel  through 
foreclosure proceedings. The arrest or attachment of one or more of our vessels could interrupt our cash flow and require us to pay large sums of 
funds  to  have  the  arrest  or  attachment  lifted.  In  addition,  in  some  jurisdictions,  such  as  South Africa,  under  the  “sister  ship”  theory  of  liability,  a 
claimant  may  arrest  both  the  vessel  that  is  subject  to  the  claimant’s  maritime  lien  and  any  “associated”  vessel,  which  is  any  vessel  owned  or 
controlled by the same owner. Claimants could try to assert “sister ship” liability against one vessel in our fleet for claims relating to another of our 
ships. In addition, port authorities may seek to detain our vessels in port, which could adversely affect our operating results or relationships with 
customers. 

Many  of  our  seafaring  employees  are  covered  by  collective  bargaining  agreements  and  the  failure  to  renew  those  agreements  or  any 
future labor agreements may disrupt operations and adversely affect our cash flows.

A significant portion of our seafarers are employed under collective bargaining agreements. We may become subject to additional labor agreements 
in  the  future.  We  may  suffer  labor  disruptions  if  relationships  deteriorate  with  the  seafarers  or  the  unions  that  represent  them.  Our  collective 
bargaining  agreements  may  not  prevent  labor  disruptions,  particularly  when  the  agreements  are  being  renegotiated.  Salaries  are  typically 
renegotiated  annually  or  bi-annually  for  seafarers  and  annually  for  onshore  operational  staff  and  may  increase  our  cost  of  operation. Any  labor 
disruptions could harm our operations and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We and certain of our joint venture partners may be unable to attract and retain qualified, skilled employees or crew necessary to operate 
our business.

Our  success  depends  in  large  part  on  our  ability  to  attract  and  retain  highly  skilled  and  qualified  personnel.  In  crewing  our  vessels,  we  require 
technically skilled employees with specialized training who can perform physically demanding work. Any inability we experience in the future to hire, 
train and retain a sufficient number of qualified employees could impair our ability to manage, maintain and grow our business.

Exposure to currency exchange rate fluctuations results in fluctuations in our cash flows and operating results.

Substantially all of our revenues are earned in U.S. Dollars, although we are paid in Euros, Australian Dollars, and British Pounds under some of 
our charters. A portion of our operating costs are incurred in currencies other than U.S. Dollars. This partial mismatch in operating revenues and 
expenses  leads  to  fluctuations  in  net  income  due  to  changes  in  the  value  of  the  U.S.  Dollar  relative  to  other  currencies,  in  particular  the  British 
Pound, the Euro, Singapore Dollar, Australian Dollar, and Canadian Dollar. We also make payments under two Euro-denominated term loans. If the 
amount of these and other Euro-denominated obligations exceeds our Euro-denominated revenues, we must convert other currencies, primarily the 
U.S. Dollar, into Euros. An increase in the strength of the Euro relative to the U.S. Dollar would require us to convert more U.S. Dollars to Euros to 
satisfy those obligations.

Because we report our operating results in U.S. Dollars, changes in the value of the U.S. Dollar relative to other currencies also result in fluctuations 
of our reported revenues and earnings. Under U.S. accounting guidelines, all foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities, such as 
cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, restricted cash, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, advances from affiliates and long-term debt 
are revalued and reported based on the prevailing exchange rate at the end of the applicable period. This revaluation historically has caused us to 
report  significant  unrealized  foreign  currency  exchange  gains  or  losses  each  period. The  primary  source  of  these  gains  and  losses  is  our  Euro-
denominated term loans and our Norwegian Krone-denominated bonds.

Our operating results are subject to seasonal fluctuations.

We operate our conventional tankers in markets that have historically exhibited seasonal variations in demand and, therefore, in charter rates. This 
seasonality may result in quarter-to-quarter volatility in our results of operations. Tanker markets are typically stronger in the winter months as a 
result of increased oil consumption in the Northern Hemisphere. In addition, unpredictable weather patterns in these months tend to disrupt vessel 
scheduling,  which  historically  has  increased  oil  price  volatility  and  oil  trading  activities  in  the  winter  months.  As  a  result,  our  revenues  have 
historically  been  weaker  during  the  fiscal  quarters  ended  June  30  and  September  30,  and  stronger  in  our  fiscal  quarters  ended  March  31  and 
December 31.

We may experience operational problems with vessels that reduce revenue and increase costs.

FPSO  units  are  complex  and  their  operations  are  technically  challenging.  Marine  transportation  and  oil  production  operations  are  subject  to 
mechanical  risks  and  problems  as  well  as  environmental  risks.  Operational  problems  may  lead  to  loss  of  revenue  or  higher  than  anticipated 
operating  expenses  or  require  additional  capital  expenditures.  Any  of  these  results  could  harm  our  business,  financial  condition  and  operating 
results.

Actual results of new technologies or technology upgrades may differ from expected results and affect our results of operations.

Teekay LNG has invested and is investing in vessel technology upgrades such as MEGI engines and other equipment and designs for certain LNG 
carriers, including, among other things, to improve fuel efficiency and vessel performance. These new engine designs and other equipment may not 
perform  to  expectations  during  actual  operations,  which  may  result  in  our  exposure  to  performance  claims  based  on  failure  to  achieve  specified 
performance requirements included in certain charter party agreements. During certain operations, actual fuel consumption for Teekay LNG’s MEGI 
LNG carriers may exceed specified levels in certain charter party agreements, which may result in reimbursement by Teekay LNG to the charterer 
for the cost of the excess fuel consumed. Teekay LNG is in the process of installing additional equipment on certain of its MEGI LNG carriers to 
lower fuel consumption on these vessels. Continued reimbursement obligations, unrecovered capital expenditures, delays in the installation of the 
equipment, or new equipment installations not performing to our expectations could harm our results of operations or financial condition. 

Sanctions against key participants in the Yamal LNG Project could impede performance of the Yamal LNG Project, which could have a 
material adverse effect on us.

The  U.S.  Treasury  Department’s  Office  of  Foreign Assets  Control  (or  OFAC)  placed  Russia-based  Novatek,  a  50.1%  owner  of  the  Yamal  LNG 
Project, on the Sectoral Sanctions Identifications List. OFAC also previously imposed sanctions on an investor in Novatek and these sanctions also 
remain in effect. The current restrictions on Novatek prohibit U.S. persons (and their subsidiaries) from participating in debt financing transactions of 
greater than 60 days maturity with Novatek and, by virtue of Novatek’s 50.1% ownership interest, the Yamal LNG Project. The EU also imposed 
certain sanctions on Russia. These sanctions require an EU license or authorization before a party can provide certain technologies or technical 
assistance, financing, financial assistance, or brokering with regard to these technologies. However, the technologies being currently sanctioned by 
the  EU  appear  to  focus  on  oil  exploration  projects,  not  gas  projects.  In  addition,  OFAC  and  other  governments  or  organizations  may  impose 
additional sanctions on Novatek, the Yamal LNG Project or other project participants, which may further hinder the ability of the Yamal LNG Project 
to  receive  necessary  financing. Although  we  believe  that  we  are  in  compliance  with  all  applicable  sanctions,  laws  and  regulations,  and  intend  to 
maintain such compliance, the scope of these sanctions laws may be subject to change. 

In  September  2019,  OFAC  imposed  sanctions  on  COSCO  Shipping  Tanker  (Dalian)  Co.,  Ltd.  (or  COSCO  Dalian). At  the  time,  COSCO  Dalian 
owned 50% of China LNG Shipping (Holdings) Limited (or CLNG), which in turn, owns a 50% interest in our Yamal LNG joint venture (or the Yamal 
LNG Joint Venture), which owns six on-the-water ARC7 LNG carriers. As a result of COSCO Dalian’s 50% ownership of CLNG and CLNG’s 50% 
interest in the Yamal LNG Joint Venture, both CLNG and the joint venture at the time qualified as “Blocked Persons" under OFAC's deeming rules. 
In October 2019, the COSCO group completed an ownership restructuring on arms'-length terms pursuant to which its 50% interest in CLNG was 
transferred from COSCO Dalian to a non-sanctioned COSCO entity, which automatically resulted in CLNG and the Yamal LNG Joint Venture no 
longer being classified as “Blocked Persons.” Although, CLNG and, by implication, our Yamal LNG Joint Venture were absolved from sanctions as a 
result  of  the  October  2019  restructuring,  OFAC  subsequently  lifted  its  sanctions  against  COSCO  Dalian  in  January  2020.  We  do  not  expect  any 
material financial impact to us from these resolved issues.

Future sanctions may prohibit the Yamal LNG Joint Venture from performing under its contracts with the Yamal LNG Project, which could have a 
material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and ability to make cash distributions on our units.

21

In addition to the Yamal LNG Joint Venture, participants in other projects in which we are involved (including, with respect to such other projects, our 
joint  venture  partners,  customers,  and  their  respective  shareholders  or  management)  may  be  subject  to  sanctions,  which  sanctions  may  have  a 
material  adverse  effect  on  the  success  of  those  projects  or  our  joint  ventures  and,  in  turn,  on  our  business,  financial  condition  and  results  of 
operations.

Failure, shutdown or other adverse events impacting the Yamal LNG Project may result in Teekay LNG's inability to re-deploy the ARC7 
LNG carriers.

The charter party under the Yamal LNG Joint Venture’s time-charter contracts for the Yamal LNG Project is Yamal Trade Pte. Ltd., a wholly-owned 
subsidiary  of  Yamal  LNG,  the  project’s  sponsor.  If  the  Yamal  LNG  Project  were  to  shut  down  or  face  other  adverse  events,  in  either  case  on  a 
permanent or even temporary basis, Teekay LNG may be unable to redeploy the ARC7 LNG carriers under other time-charter contracts or may be 
forced to scrap the vessels. Any such events could adversely affect our results of operations and Teekay LNG's ability to make cash distributions.

Teekay  LNG  or  its  joint  venture  partners  may  be  unable  to  operate  an  LNG  receiving  and  regasification  terminal  and  may  be  exposed 
from time to time to conditions, developments, or requirements that may adversely affect Teekay LNG or its joint venture.

Teekay LNG has a 30% ownership interest in an LNG regasification and receiving terminal in Bahrain. Although the Bahrain LNG Joint Venture has 
completed mechanical construction and commissioning of the Bahrain terminal and is currently receiving terminal use payments, certain handover 
arrangements in respect of the Bahrain terminal remain subject to the approval of the lenders of the Bahrain LNG Joint Venture. As a result, the 
Bahrain  LNG  Joint  Venture  may  experience  associated  delays  in  the  formal  acceptance  of  the  terminal  and  the  commencement  of  commercial 
operations  if  the  Bahrain  LNG  Joint  Venture  does  not  satisfy  all  applicable  conditions  and  obtain  all  necessary  consents  in  accordance  with  its 
financing agreements. Accordingly, Teekay LNG or its joint venture partners may be unable to operate the LNG receiving and regasification terminal 
properly, whether due to a lack of satisfaction of such conditions, a lack of obtaining such consents, a lack of industry experience, or otherwise, 
which could affect their ability to operate the terminal, including as a result of a reduction in the expected output of the terminal. Any such reduction 
could decrease revenues to the Bahrain LNG Joint Venture which may harm our business, results of operations and financial condition. 

In  addition,  the  development,  construction  and  operation  of  large-scale  energy  and  regasification  projects,  such  as  the  Bahrain  terminal,  are 
inherently subject to unforeseen conditions or developments. Such conditions or developments may include, among others: shortages or delays in 
deliveries of equipment, materials or labor; significant cost over-runs; labor disruptions; government issues; regulatory changes; legal disputes with 
third-parties,  including  contractors,  sub-contractors  and  customers;  investigations  involving  various  authorities;  adverse  weather  conditions; 
unanticipated increases in equipment, material or labor costs; reductions in access to financing, an increase in the amount of required support from 
shareholders of the Bahrain LNG Joint Venture under the terms of the financing, the ability to comply with all conditions and requirements under the 
terms  of  the  financing,  and  the  ability  to  obtain  any  applicable  waivers  or  consents  from  our  lenders  on  a  timely  basis,  or  at  all;  unforeseen 
engineering, technical and technological design, environmental, infrastructure or engineering issues; the inability to operate the Bahrain terminal at 
its full designed capacity; a temporary shutdown of the Bahrain terminal; and a general inability to realize the anticipated benefits of the Bahrain 
terminal, including all the benefits associated with the long-term contract with the customer. In the event that one or more of these conditions or 
developments were to materialize or continue for a prolonged period (in particular, any legal disputes with third parties or the Bahrain LNG Joint 
Venture’s inability to comply with all conditions and requirements under the terms of its financing or obtain any applicable waivers or consents from 
its lenders under the terms of its financing), our business, results of operations and financial condition could be harmed.

Our  joint  venture  arrangements  impose  obligations  upon  us  but  limit  our  control  of  the  joint  ventures,  which  may  affect  our  ability  to 
achieve our joint venture objectives.

For financial or strategic reasons, we conduct a portion of our business through joint ventures. Generally, we are obligated to provide proportionate 
financial  support  for  the  joint  ventures  although  our  control  of  the  business  entity  may  be  substantially  limited.  Due  to  this  limited  control,  we 
generally have less flexibility to pursue our own objectives through joint ventures or to access available cash of the joint ventures than we would 
with our own subsidiaries. There is no assurance that our joint venture partners will continue their relationships with us in the future or that we will 
be  able  to  achieve  our  financial  or  strategic  objectives  relating  to  the  joint  ventures  and  the  markets  in  which  they  operate.  In  addition,  our  joint 
venture partners may have business objectives that are inconsistent with ours, experience financial and other difficulties (including under relevant 
sanctions and anti-bribery and corruption laws) that may affect the success of the joint venture or be unable or unwilling to fulfill their obligations 
under the joint ventures, which may affect our financial condition or results of operations. In addition, we do not have control over the operations of, 
nor do we have any legal claim to the revenues and expenses of our equity-accounted investments. Consequently, the cash flow generated by our 
equity-accounted investments may not be available for use by us in the period that such cash flows are generated, if at all.

We depend on certain joint venture partners to assist us in operating our businesses and competing in our markets.

Our ability to compete for certain projects, enter into new charters, secure financings and expand our customer relationships depends in part on our 
ability to leverage our relationship with our joint venture partners and their reputation and relationships in the shipping industry. If our joint venture 
partners suffer material damage to its financial condition, reputation or relationships, it may harm the ability of us or our subsidiaries to:

•

•

•

•

•

renew existing charters and contracts of affreightment upon their expiration;

obtain new charters and contracts of affreightment;

successfully interact with shipyards during periods of shipyard construction constraints;

obtain financing on commercially acceptable terms, if at all; or

maintain satisfactory relationships with suppliers and other third parties.

If our or our subsidiaries’ ability to do any of the things described above is impaired, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, results 
of operations and financial condition and our ability to make cash distributions.

22

We  may  be  unable  to  make  or  realize  expected  benefits  from  acquisitions  and  growth  through  acquisitions  may  harm  our  financial 
condition and performance.

A principal component of our long-term strategy is to continue to grow by expanding our business both in the geographic areas and markets where 
we have historically focused as well as into new geographic areas, market segments and services. We may not be successful in expanding our 
operations and any expansion may not be profitable. In order to achieve growth, we may acquire new companies or businesses which transactions 
may involve business risks commonly encountered in acquisitions of companies, including:

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

interruption of, or loss of momentum in, the activities of one or more of an acquired company’s businesses and our businesses;

additional demands on members of our senior management while integrating acquired businesses, which would decrease the time they have
to manage our existing business, service existing customers and attract new customers;

difficulties identifying suitable acquisition candidates;

difficulties integrating the operations, personnel and business culture of acquired companies;

difficulties coordinating and managing geographically separate organizations;

adverse effects on relationships with our existing suppliers and customers, and those of the companies acquired;

difficulties entering geographic markets or new market segments in which we have no or limited experience; and

loss of key officers and employees of acquired companies.

Acquisitions  may  not  be  profitable  to  us  at  the  time  of  their  completion  and  may  not  generate  revenues  sufficient  to  justify  our  investment.  In 
addition, our acquisition growth strategy exposes us to risks that may harm our results of operations and financial condition, including risks that we 
may: fail to realize anticipated benefits, such as cost-savings, revenue and cash flow enhancements and earnings accretion; decrease our liquidity 
by using a significant portion of our available cash or borrowing capacity to finance acquisitions; incur additional indebtedness, which may result in 
significantly  increased  interest  expense  or  financial  leverage,  or  issue  additional  equity  securities  to  finance  acquisitions,  which  may  result  in 
significant  shareholder  dilution;  incur  or  assume  unanticipated  liabilities,  losses  or  costs  associated  with  the  business  acquired;  or  incur  other 
significant charges, such as impairment of goodwill or other intangible assets, asset devaluation or restructuring charges.

Unlike  newbuildings,  existing  vessels  typically  do  not  carry  warranties  as  to  their  condition.  While  we  generally  inspect  existing  vessels  prior  to 
purchase, such an inspection would normally not provide us with as much knowledge of a vessel’s condition as we would possess if it had been 
built for us and operated by us during its life. Repairs and maintenance costs for existing vessels are difficult to predict and may be substantially 
higher than for vessels we have operated since they were built. These costs could decrease our cash flow and reduce our liquidity.

The  Daughter  Entities  may  expend  substantial  sums  during  the  construction  of  potential  future  newbuildings  or  upgrades  to  their 
existing vessels, without earning revenue and without assurance that they will be completed.

We may be required to expend substantial sums as progress payments during the construction of any potential future newbuildings or any vessel 
upgrades, but we may not derive any revenue from the vessel until after its delivery or completion of such upgrades. In addition, under some of our 
time charters if our delivery of a vessel to a customer is delayed, we may be required to pay liquidated damages in amounts equal  to or, under 
some charters, almost double the hire rate during the delay. For prolonged delays, the customer may terminate the time charter and, in addition to 
the resulting loss of revenues, we may be responsible for additional substantial liquidated charges.

Our  newbuilding  financing  commitments  typically  have  been  pre-arranged.  However,  if  we  are  unable  to  obtain  financing  required  to  complete 
payments on any potential future newbuilding orders, we could effectively forfeit all or a portion of the progress payments previously made.

We may make substantial capital expenditures to expand the size of our fleet and generally are required to make significant installment 
payments for acquisitions of newbuilding vessels. Depending on whether we finance our expenditures through cash from operations or 
by incurring debt or issuing equity securities, our financial leverage could increase, or our shareholders could be diluted.

We regularly evaluate and pursue opportunities to provide the marine transportation requirements for new or expanding LNG and LPG projects. The 
award process relating to LNG transportation opportunities typically involves various stages and takes several months to complete. We may not be 
awarded charters relating to any of the projects we pursue. If we bid on and are awarded contracts relating to any LNG and LPG projects, we will 
need to incur significant capital expenditures to build the related LNG and LPG carriers.

To fund any future capital expenditures, we will be required to use cash from operations or incur borrowings or raise capital through the sale of debt 
or additional equity securities. Our ability to obtain bank financing or to access the capital markets for future offerings may be limited by our financial 
condition at the time of any such financing or offering as well as by adverse market conditions resulting from, among other things, general economic 
conditions and contingencies and uncertainties that are beyond our control. Our failure to obtain the funds for necessary future capital expenditures 
could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Even if we are successful in obtaining necessary 
funds, incurring additional debt may significantly increase our interest expense and financial leverage, which could limit our financial flexibility and 
ability to pursue other business opportunities. Issuing additional equity securities may result in significant shareholder dilution and would increase 
the aggregate amount of cash required to pay quarterly dividends.

In addition, although delivery of the completed vessel will not occur until much later (approximately two to three years from the time the order is 
placed), we typically must pay an initial installment up-front upon signing the purchase contract. During the construction period, we generally are 
required  to  make  installment  payments  on  newbuildings  prior  to  their  delivery,  in  addition  to  incurring  financing,  miscellaneous  construction  and 
project management costs, but we do not derive any income from the vessel until after its delivery. If we finance these payments by issuing debt or 
equity securities, we will increase the aggregate amount of interest or cash required to maintain our current level of quarterly distributions/dividends 
to unitholders/shareholders prior to generating cash from the operation of the newbuilding.

Teekay  Tankers’  U.S.  Gulf  lightering  business  competes  with  alternative  methods  of  delivering  crude  oil  to  ports,  which  may  limit  its 
earnings in this area of its operations.

Teekay  Tankers’  U.S.  Gulf  lightering  business  faces  competition  from  alternative  methods  of  delivering  crude  oil  shipments  to  port,  including 
offshore offloading facilities. While we believe that lightering offers advantages over alternative methods of delivering crude oil to U.S. Gulf ports, 
Teekay Tankers’ lightering revenues may be limited due to the availability of alternative methods.

Teekay Tankers’ full service lightering operations are subject to specific risks that could lead to accidents, oil spills or property damage.

Lightering is subject to specific risks arising from the process of safely bringing two large moving tankers next to each other and mooring them for 
lightering operations. These operations require a high degree of expertise and present a higher risk of collision compared to when docking a vessel 
or  transferring  cargo  at  port.  Lightering  operations,  similar  to  marine  transportation  in  general,  are  also  subject  to  risks  due  to  events  such  as 
mechanical failures, human error, and weather conditions.

Legal and Regulatory Risks

Past  port  calls  by  our  vessels,  or  third-party  vessels  from  which  we  derived  RSA  revenues,  to  countries  that  are  subject  to  sanctions 
imposed by the United States and the European Union may impact investors’ decisions to invest in our securities.

The United States has imposed sanctions on several countries or regions such as Cuba, North Korea, Syria, Sudan, Iran, Yemen and Venezuela. 
The EU lifted its previously enacted sanctions on Iran in January 2016. At that time, the U.S. lifted its secondary sanctions on Iran which applied to 
foreign persons but has retained its primary sanctions which apply to U.S. entities and their foreign subsidiaries. In the past, conventional oil tankers 
owned or chartered-in by us, or third-party vessels participating in RSAs from which we derive revenue, made limited port calls to those countries 
for  the  loading  and  discharging  of  oil  products. Those  port  calls  did  not  violate  U.S.  or  EU  sanctions  at  the  time,  and  we  intend  to  maintain  our 
compliance with all U.S. and EU sanctions. In addition, we have no future contracted loadings or discharges in any of those countries and intend 
not to enter into voyage charter contracts for the transport of oil or gas to or from Iran or Syria. 

We believe that our compliance with these sanctions and our lack of any future port calls to those countries does not and will not adversely impact 
our revenues, because port calls to these countries have never accounted for any material amount of our revenues. However, some investors might 
decide not to invest in us simply because we have previously called on, or through our participation in RSAs have previously received revenue from 
calls on, ports in these sanctioned countries. Any such investor reaction could adversely affect the market for our common shares.

Failure  to  comply  with  the  U.S.  Foreign  Corrupt  Practices  Act,  the  UK  Bribery  Act,  the  UK  Criminal  Finances  Act  and  other  similar 
legislation in other jurisdictions could result in fines, criminal penalties, contract terminations and an adverse effect on our business. 

We  operate  our  vessels  worldwide,  which  may  require  our  vessels  to  trade  in  countries  known  to  have  a  reputation  for  corruption.  We  are 
committed to doing business in accordance with applicable anti-corruption laws and have adopted a code of business conduct and ethics which is 
consistent and in full compliance with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 (or the FCPA), the Bribery Act 2010 of the United Kingdom (or 
the UK Bribery Act) and the Criminal Finances Act 2017 of the United Kingdom (the CFA). We are subject, however, to the risk that we, our affiliated 
entities or our or their respective officers, directors, employees and agents may take actions determined to be in violation of such anti-corruption 
and anti-money laundering laws, including the FCPA, the UK Bribery Act and the CFA. Any such violation could result in substantial fines, sanctions, 
civil and/or criminal penalties, or curtailment of operations in certain jurisdictions, and might adversely affect our business, results of operations or 
financial  condition.  In  addition,  actual  or  alleged  violations  could  damage  our  reputation  and  ability  to  do  business.  Furthermore,  detecting, 
investigating, and resolving actual or alleged violations is expensive and can consume significant time and attention of our senior management.

Our operations are subject to substantial environmental and other regulations, which may significantly increase our expenses.

Our  operations  are  affected  by  extensive  and  changing  international,  national  and  local  environmental  protection  laws,  regulations,  treaties  and 
conventions  which  are  in  force  in  international  waters,  the  jurisdictional  waters  of  the  countries  in  which  our  vessels  operate,  as  well  as  the 
countries of our vessels’ registration, including those governing oil spills, discharges to air and water, and the handling and disposal of hazardous 
substances and wastes. Many of these requirements are designed to reduce the risk of oil spills and other pollution. In addition, we believe that the 
heightened  environmental,  quality  and  security  concerns  of  insurance  underwriters,  regulators  and  charterers  will  lead  to  additional  regulatory 
requirements,  including  enhanced  risk  assessment  and  security  requirements  and  greater  inspection  and  safety  requirements  on  vessels.  For 
example, new or amended legislation relating to ship recycling, sewage systems, emission control (including emissions of greenhouse gases and 
other  pollutants)  as  well  as  ballast  water  treatment  and  ballast  water  handling  may  be  adopted.  The  IMO  has  also  established  progressive 
standards  limiting  emissions  from  ships  starting  from  2023  towards  2030  and  2050  goals.  These  and  other  laws  or  regulations  may  require 
significant additional capital expenditures or operating expenses in order for us to comply with the laws and regulations and maintain our vessels in 
compliance with international and national regulations. In addition, the higher emissions of Teekay LNG’s steam vessels relative to more modern 
vessels could make it more difficult to secure employment for these vessels and reduce the rates at which Teekay LNG can charter these vessels to 
its customers.

The environmental and other laws and regulations applicable to us can affect the resale value or useful lives of our vessels, require a reduction in 
cargo  capacity,  ship  modifications  or  operational  changes  or  restrictions,  lead  to  decreased  availability  of  insurance  coverage  for  environmental 
matters or result in the denial of access to certain jurisdictional waters or ports, or detention in, certain ports. Under local, national and foreign laws, 
as  well  as  international  treaties  and  conventions,  we  could  incur  material  liabilities,  including  clean-up  obligations,  in  the  event  that  there  is  a 
release  of  petroleum  or  other  hazardous  substances  from  our  vessels  or  otherwise  in  connection  with  our  operations.  We  could  also  become 
subject to personal injury or property damage claims relating to the release of or exposure to hazardous materials associated with our operations. In 
addition, failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations may result in administrative and civil penalties, criminal sanctions or the suspension 
or termination of our operations, including, in certain instances, seizure or detention of our vessels.

Climate change and greenhouse gas restrictions may adversely impact our operations and markets.

An increasing concern for, and focus on climate change has promoted extensive existing and proposed international, national and local regulations 
intended  to  reduce  greenhouse  gas  emissions  (including  from  various  jurisdictions  and  the  IMO).  These  regulatory  measures  may  include  the 
adoption  of  cap  and  trade  regimes,  carbon  taxes,  increased  efficiency  standards  and  incentives  or  mandates  for  renewable  energy.  Compliance 
with these or other regulations and our efforts to participate in reducing greenhouse gas emissions will likely increase our compliance costs, require 
additional capital expenditures to reduce vessel emissions and require changes to our business. 

Our  business  includes  transporting  oil,  refined  petroleum  products,  LNG  and  LPG.  Regulatory  changes  and  growing  public  concern  about  the 
environmental  impact  of  climate  change  may  lead  to  reduced  demand  for  hydrocarbon  products  and  decreased  demand  for  our  services,  while 
increasing  or  creating  greater  incentives  for  use  of  alternative  energy  sources.  We  expect  regulatory  and  consumer  efforts  aimed  at  combating 
climate change to intensify and accelerate. Although we do not expect demand for oil and gas to decline dramatically over the short-term, in the 
long-term,  climate  change  initiatives  will  likely  significantly  affect  demand  for  oil  and  gas  and  for  alternatives. Any  such  change  could  adversely 
affect our ability to compete in a changing market and our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Increasing  scrutiny  and  changing  expectations  from  investors,  lenders,  customers  and  other  market  participants  with  respect  to  ESG 
policies and practices may impose additional costs on us or expose us to additional risks.

Companies  across  all  industries  are  facing  increasing  scrutiny  relating  to  their  ESG  policies.  Investor  advocacy  groups,  certain  institutional 
investors,  investment  funds,  lenders  and  other  market  participants  are  increasingly  focused  on  ESG  practices  and,  in  recent  years,  have  placed 
increasing importance on the implications and social cost of their investments. The increased focus and activism related to ESG and similar matters 
may hinder access to capital, as investors and lenders may decide to reallocate capital or to not commit capital as a result of their assessment of a 
company’s  ESG  practices.  Companies  that  do  not  adapt  to  or  comply  with  investor,  lender  or  other  industry  shareholder  expectations  and 
standards, which are evolving, or which are perceived to have not responded appropriately to the growing concern for ESG issues, regardless of 
whether there is a legal requirement to do so, may suffer from reputational damage and their business, financial condition and stock price may be 
adversely affected.

We  may  face  increasing  pressures  from  investors,  lenders,  customers  and  other  market  participants,  which  are  increasingly  focused  on  climate 
change,  to  prioritize  sustainable  energy  practices,  reduce  our  carbon  footprint  and  promote  sustainability.  As  a  result,  we  may  be  required  to 
implement  more  stringent  ESG  procedures  or  standards  so  that  our  existing  and  future  investors  and  lenders  remain  invested  in  us  and  make 
further investments in us, or in order for customers to consider conducting future business with us, especially given our business of transporting oil, 
refined petroleum products, LNG and LPG. In addition, it is likely we will incur additional costs and require additional resources to monitor, report 
and comply with wide-ranging ESG requirements. The occurrence of any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our business, 
financial condition and results of operations.

Regulations  relating  to  ballast  water  discharge  which  came  into  effect  during  September  2017  may  adversely  affect  our  operational 
results and financial condition.

The International Maritime Organization, the United Nations agency for maritime safety and the prevention of pollution by vessels (or the IMO) has 
imposed updated guidelines for ballast water management systems specifying the maximum amount of viable organisms allowed to be discharged 
from  a  vessel’s  ballast  water.  Depending  on  the  date  of  the  International  Oil  Pollution  Prevention  renewal  survey,  existing  vessels  constructed 
before September 8, 2017 were required to comply with updated applicable standards on or after September 8, 2019. For most vessels, compliance 
with the applicable standard will involve installing on-board systems to treat ballast water and eliminate unwanted organisms. Ships constructed on 
or  after  September  8,  2017  are  required  to  comply  with  the  applicable  standards  on  or  after  September  8,  2017.  We  are  currently  implementing 
ballast water management system upgrades on certain of our vessels in accordance with the required timelines imposed by the IMO. The cost of 
compliance  with  these  regulations,  including  as  a  result  of  installing  such  systems,  may  be  substantial  and  may  adversely  affect  our  results  of 
operation and financial condition. In addition to the requirements under the IMO, the U.S. Coast Guard (or USCG) has imposed mandatory ballast 
water management practices for all vessels equipped with ballast water tanks and entering U.S. waters. These USCG regulations may have the 
effect of restricting our vessels from entering U.S. waters, unless we equip our vessels with pre-approved BWTS or receive authorization by a duly-
issued permit or exemption. 

As  a  Marshall  Islands  corporation  with  our  headquarters  in  Bermuda  and  with  a  majority  of  our  subsidiaries  being  Marshall  Islands 
entities and also having subsidiaries in other offshore jurisdictions, our operations may be subject to economic substance requirements, 
which could impact our business. 

Finance ministers of the EU rate jurisdictions for tax transparency, governance, real economic activity and corporate tax rate. Countries that do not 
adequately cooperate with the finance ministers are put on a “grey list” or a “blacklist”. Bermuda and the Marshall Islands were removed from the 
blacklist in May and October 2019, respectively. Subsequently, in February 2020, Bermuda and the Marshall Islands were "white-listed" by the EU 
and continue to remain on the white list.

EU  member  states  have  agreed  upon  a  set  of  measures,  which  they  can  choose  to  apply  against  the  listed  countries,  including  increased 
monitoring and audits, withholding taxes, special documentation requirements and anti-abuse provisions. The European Commission has stated it 
will continue to support member states' efforts to develop a more coordinated approach to sanctions for the listed countries. EU legislation prohibits 
EU  funds  from  being  channeled  or  transited  through  entities  in  countries  on  the  blacklist.  Jurisdictions  in  which  we  operate  could  be  put  on  the 
blacklist in the future. 

25

We are a Marshall Islands corporation with our headquarters in Bermuda. A majority of our subsidiaries are Marshall Islands entities and a number 
of our subsidiaries are either organized or registered in Bermuda. These jurisdictions have enacted economic substance laws and regulations with 
which  we  are  obligated  to  comply.  We  believe  that  we  and  our  subsidiaries  are  compliant  with  the  Bermuda  and  the  Marshall  Islands  economic 
substance  requirements  and  do  not  foresee  that  these  requirements  will  have  a  material  adverse  effect  on  our  business,  financial  condition  and 
operating  results.  However,  if  there  were  a  change  in  the  requirements  or  interpretation  thereof,  or  if  there  were  an  unexpected  change  to  our 
operations, any such change could result in non-compliance with the economic substance legislation and related fines or other penalties, increased 
monitoring  and  audits,  and  dissolution  of  the  non-compliant  entity,  which  could  have  an  adverse  effect  on  our  business,  financial  condition  or 
operating results.

Information and Technology Risks

A cyber-attack could materially disrupt our business.

We rely on information technology systems and networks in our operations and the administration of our business. Cyber-attacks have increased in 
number and sophistication in recent years. Our operations could be targeted by individuals or groups seeking to sabotage or disrupt our information 
technology  systems  and  networks,  or  to  steal  data. A  successful  cyber-attack  could  materially  disrupt  our  operations,  including  the  safety  of  our 
operations,  or  lead  to  unauthorized  release  of  information  or  alteration  of  information  on  our  systems. Any  such  attack  or  other  breaches  of  our 
information technology systems could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Our  failure  to  comply  with  data  privacy  laws  could  damage  our  customer  relationships  and  expose  us  to  litigation  risks  and  potential 
fines.

Data  privacy  is  subject  to  frequently  changing  rules  and  regulations,  which  sometimes  conflict  among  the  various  jurisdictions  and  countries  in 
which we provide services and continue to develop in ways which we cannot predict, including with respect to evolving technologies such as cloud 
computing. The EU adopted the General Data Privacy Regulation (or GDPR), a comprehensive legal framework to govern data collection, use and 
sharing  and  related  consumer  privacy  rights,  which  took  effect  in  May  2018.  The  GDPR  includes  significant  penalties  for  non-compliance.  Our 
failure to adhere to or successfully implement processes in response to changing regulatory requirements in this area could result in legal liability or 
impairment  to  our  reputation  in  the  marketplace,  which  could  have  a  material  adverse  effect  on  our  business,  financial  condition  and  results  of 
operations.

Risks Related to an Investment in Our Securities

Because we are organized under the laws of the Marshall Islands, it may be difficult to serve us with legal process or enforce judgments 
against us, our directors or our management.

We are organized under the laws of the Marshall Islands, and all of our assets are located outside of the United States. In addition, a majority of our 
directors and officers are non-residents of the United States, and all or a substantial portion of the assets of these non-residents are located outside 
the United States. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible to bring an action against us or against these individuals in the United States. Even if 
successful in bringing an action of this kind, the laws of the Marshall Islands and of other jurisdictions may prevent or restrict the enforcement of a 
judgment against us or our assets or our directors and officers.

Tax Risks

In addition to the following risk factors, you should read "Item 4E – Taxation of the Company", "Item 10 – Additional Information – Material United 
States  Federal  Income Tax  Considerations"  and  "Item  10  – Additional  Information  –  Non-United  States Tax  Considerations"  for  a  more  complete 
discussion of the expected material U.S. federal and non-U.S. income tax considerations relating to us and the ownership and disposition of our 
common stock.

U.S.  tax  authorities  could  treat  us  as  a  “passive  foreign  investment  company,”  which  could  have  adverse  U.S.  federal  income  tax 
consequences to U.S. shareholders.

A non-U.S. entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes will be treated as a “passive foreign investment company” (or PFIC) 
for such purposes in any taxable year in which, after taking into account the income and assets of the corporation and, pursuant to a “look-through” 
rule, any other corporation or partnership in which the corporation directly or indirectly owns at least 25% of the stock or equity interests (by value), 
either (i) at least 75% of its gross income consists of “passive income” or (ii) at least 50% of the average value of the entity’s assets is attributable to 
assets that produce or are held for the production of “passive income.” For purposes of these tests, “passive income” includes dividends, interest, 
gains  from  the  sale  or  exchange  of  investment  property  and  rents  and  royalties  other  than  rents  and  royalties  that  are  received  from  unrelated 
parties  in  connection  with  the  active  conduct  of  a  trade  or  business.  By  contrast,  income  derived  from  the  performance  of  services  does  not 
constitute “passive income.”

26

There  are  legal  uncertainties  involved  in  determining  whether  the  income  derived  from  our  and  our  look-through  subsidiaries'  time-chartering 
activities constitutes rental income or income derived from the performance of services, including the decision in Tidewater Inc. v. United States, 
565 F.3d 299 (5th Cir. 2009), which held that income derived from certain time-chartering activities should be treated as rental income rather than 
services income for purposes of a foreign sales corporation provision of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (or the Code). However, 
the Internal Revenue Service (or the IRS) stated in an Action on Decision (AOD 2010-01) that it disagrees with, and will not acquiesce to, the way 
that the rental versus services framework was applied to the facts in the Tidewater decision, and in its discussion stated that the time charters at 
issue  in Tidewater  would  be  treated  as  producing  services  income  for  PFIC  purposes. The  IRS’s  statement  with  respect  to Tidewater  cannot  be 
relied  upon  or  otherwise  cited  as  precedent  by  taxpayers.  Consequently,  in  the  absence  of  any  binding  legal  authority  specifically  relating  to  the 
statutory provisions governing PFICs, there can be no assurance that the IRS or a court would not follow the Tidewater decision in interpreting the 
PFIC provisions of the Code. Nevertheless, based on our and our look-through subsidiaries' current assets and operations, we intend to take the 
position that we are not now and have never been a PFIC. No assurance can be given, however, that this position would be sustained by a court if 
contested by the IRS or that we would not constitute a PFIC for any future taxable year if there were to be changes in our and our look-through 
subsidiaries' assets, income or operations.

If the IRS were to determine that we are or have been a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder (as defined below under "Item 10 – 
Additional Information – Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations") held our common stock, such U.S. Holder would face adverse 
U.S. federal income tax consequences. For a more comprehensive discussion regarding the tax consequences to U.S. Holders if we are treated as 
a PFIC, please read "Item 10 – Additional Information – Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations – United States Federal Income 
Taxation of U.S. Holders – Consequences of Possible PFIC Classification".

We are subject to taxes, which reduces our cash available for distribution to shareholders.

We or our subsidiaries are subject to tax in certain jurisdictions in which we or our subsidiaries are organized, own assets or have operations, which 
reduces the amount of our cash available for distribution. In computing our tax obligations in these jurisdictions, we are required to take various tax 
accounting and reporting positions, including in certain cases estimates, on matters that are not entirely free from doubt and for which we may not 
have received rulings from the governing authorities. We cannot assure you that upon review of these positions, the applicable authorities will agree 
with our positions. A successful challenge by a tax authority could result in additional tax imposed on us or our subsidiaries, further reducing the 
cash available for distribution. We have established reserves in our financial statements that we believe are adequate to cover our liability for any 
such additional taxes. We cannot assure you, however, that such reserves will be sufficient to cover any additional tax liability that may be imposed 
on our subsidiaries. In addition, changes in our operations or ownership could result in additional tax being imposed on us or on our subsidiaries in 
jurisdictions  in  which  operations  are  conducted.  For  example,  changes  in  the  ownership  of  our  stock  may  cause  us  to  be  unable  to  claim  an 
exemption from U.S. federal income tax under Section 883 of the Code. If we were not exempt from tax under Section 883 of the Code, we would 
be  subject  to  U.S.  federal  income  tax  on  income  we  earn  from  voyages  into  or  out  of  the  United  States,  the  amount  of  which  is  not  within  our 
complete  control.  In  addition,  we  may  rely  on  an  exemption  to  be  deemed  non-resident  in  Canada  for  Canadian  tax  purposes  under  subsection 
250(6) of the Canada Income Tax Act for (i) corporations whose principal business is international shipping and that derive all or substantially all of 
their revenue from international shipping, and (ii) corporations that are holding companies that have over half of the cost base of their investments 
in  eligible  international  shipping  subsidiaries  and  receive  substantially  all  of  their  revenue  as  dividends  from  those  eligible  international  shipping 
subsidiaries exempt under subsection 250(6). If we were to cease to qualify for the subsection 250(6) exemption, we could be subject to Canadian 
income tax and also Canadian withholding tax on outbound distributions, which could have an adverse effect on our operating results. In addition, to 
the extent Teekay Corporation were to distribute dividends as a corporation determined to be resident in Canada, stockholders who are not resident 
in Canada for purposes of the Canada Income Tax Act would generally be subject to Canadian withholding tax in respect of such dividends paid by 
Teekay Corporation.

Typically, most of our and our subsidiaries' time-charter and spot-voyage charter contracts require the charterer to reimburse us for a certain period 
of time in respect of taxes incurred as a consequence of the voyage activities of our vessels, while performing under the relevant charter. However, 
our rights to reimbursement under charter contracts may not survive for as long as the applicable tax statutes of limitations in the jurisdictions in 
which we operate. As such, we may not be able to obtain reimbursement from our charterers where any applicable taxes that are not paid before 
the contractual claim period has expired. 

Item 4.

Information on the Company

A. Overview, History and Development

Overview

Teekay Corporation is an operational leader, project developer and portfolio manager in the marine midstream space. We primarily provide oil and
gas transportation services to the world’s leading oil and gas companies. We generate a significant portion of revenue from long-term, fixed-rate
contracts with a diverse base of energy and utility companies. Over the past 20 years, we have undergone a transformation from being primarily an
owner  of  ships  in  the  cyclical  spot  tanker  business  to  expanding  into  the  liquefied  natural  gas  (or  LNG)  and  liquefied  petroleum  gas  (or  LPG)
shipping sectors through our publicly-listed subsidiary Teekay LNG Partners L.P. (NYSE: TGP) (or Teekay LNG), continuing our conventional tanker
business through our publicly-listed subsidiary Teekay Tankers Ltd. (NYSE: TNK) (or Teekay Tankers), and now operating on a limited basis in the
offshore production sector through our ownership of TPO AS.

The combined Teekay entities operate total assets under management of approximately $9 billion, comprised of approximately 135 liquefied gas,
offshore,  and  conventional  tanker  assets  (excluding  vessels  managed  for  third  parties).  With  offices  in  10  countries  and  approximately  5,350
seagoing and shore-based employees, Teekay provides a comprehensive set of marine services to the world’s leading oil and gas companies. We
are one of the world’s largest independent owners and operators of LNG carriers and one of the world’s largest owners and operators of mid-sized
crude tankers. Our organizational structure can be divided into our controlling interests in our publicly-listed subsidiaries, Teekay LNG and Teekay
Tankers (or the Daughter Entities), and Teekay and its remaining subsidiaries (or Teekay Parent).

As of January 1, 2021, the Teekay group had approximately $9 billion of contracted, forward fixed-rate revenues. The revenue-weighted average 
remaining term of the Teekay group’s contracts was approximately 10.4 years as of January 1, 2021, excluding spot market contracts and extension 
options. “Revenue-weighted average” represents the average remaining fixed contract duration of the applicable contracts, weighted on the basis of 
aggregate  fixed  forward  payments  to  be  received  from  each  operating  segment,  excluding  extension  options.  Fixed  forward  payments  for  our 
equity-accounted  investments  and  joint  ventures  are  proportionately  adjusted  in  the  calculation  to  reflect  our  ownership  interests  in  such 
investments and joint ventures.

Teekay LNG includes all of our LNG and LPG carriers. LNG carriers are usually chartered to carry LNG pursuant to time-charter contracts, where a 
vessel  is  hired  for  a  fixed  period  of  time.  LPG  carriers  are  mainly  chartered  to  carry  LPG  and  ammonia  on  time  charters,  on  contracts  of 
affreightment or spot voyage charters. As of December 31, 2020, Teekay LNG’s fleet had a total cargo carrying capacity of approximately 8.9 million 
cubic meters. Please read “– B. Operations – Our Fleet.”

Teekay Tankers includes all of our conventional crude oil tankers and product carriers. Teekay Tankers' conventional crude oil tankers and product 
tankers primarily operate in the spot tanker market or are subject to time charters or contracts of affreightment that are priced  on  a spot market 
basis or are short-term, fixed-rate contracts. Teekay Tankers considers contracts that have an original term of less than one year in duration to be 
short-term.  Certain  of  its  conventional  crude  oil  tankers  and  product  tankers  are  on  fixed-rate  time-charter  contracts  with  an  initial  duration  of  at 
least one year. Our conventional Aframax, Suezmax, and large product tankers are among the vessels included in Teekay Tankers. Please read “– 
B. Operations – Our Fleet.”

We have chartering staff located in Singapore; London, England; and Houston, USA. Each office serves our clients headquartered in that office’s 
region. Fleet operations, vessel positions and charter market rates are monitored around the clock. We believe that monitoring such information is 
critical to making informed bids on competitive brokered business.

Teekay Parent currently owns three FPSO units; however, Teekay Parent does not intend to retain these assets over the long term. Please read “–

Our Ownership of the Daughter Entities and Recent Equity Offerings and Transactions by Daughter Entities

Our ownership of Teekay Tankers was 28.6% as of December 31, 2020. We maintain voting control of Teekay Tankers through our ownership of 
shares of Class A and Class B Common Stock and continue to consolidate this subsidiary. Our ownership of Teekay LNG was 42.4% (including our 
general partner interest) as of December 31, 2020. We maintain control of Teekay LNG by virtue of our control of the general partner and continue 
to consolidate this subsidiary. Please read “Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 4 – Equity Financing Transactions of the Daughter Entities.”

In May 2019, we sold our then remaining interests in Altera to Brookfield (or the 2019 Brookfield Transaction).

Please read “Item 5 – Operating and Financial Review and Prospects – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results 
of Operations – Recent Developments and Results of Operations” for more information on recent transactions.

Seasonality of our operations

Our  tankers  operate  in  markets  that  have  historically  exhibited  seasonal  variations  in  tanker  demand  and,  therefore,  in  spot-charter  rates.  This 
seasonality may result in quarter-to-quarter volatility in our results of operations. Tanker markets are typically stronger in the winter months as a 
result  of  increased  oil  consumption  in  the  northern  hemisphere  but  weaker  in  the  summer  months  as  a  result  of  lower  oil  consumption  in  the 
northern  hemisphere  and  refinery  maintenance.  In  addition,  unpredictable  weather  patterns  during  the  winter  months  tend  to  disrupt  vessel 
scheduling, which historically has increased oil price volatility and oil trading activities in the winter months. As a result, revenues generated by the 
tankers in our fleet have historically been weaker during our fiscal quarters ended June 30 and September 30, and stronger in our fiscal quarters 
ended December 31 and March 31.

B. Operations

We  have  three  primary  lines  of  business:  liquefied  gas  carriers,  conventional  tankers,  and  offshore  production  (FPSO  units).  We  manage  these
businesses  for  the  benefit  of  all  stakeholders.  We  allocate  capital  and  assess  performance  from  the  separate  perspectives  of  Teekay  LNG  and
Teekay Tankers, and Teekay Parent, as well as from the perspective of the lines of business (the Line of Business approach). The primary focus of
our  organizational  structure,  internal  reporting  and  allocation  of  resources  by  the  chief  operating  decision  maker,  is  on Teekay  LNG  and Teekay
Tankers, and Teekay Parent (the Legal Entity approach). However, we continue to incorporate the Line of Business approach as in certain cases
there is more than one line of business in each of Teekay LNG, Teekay Tankers and Teekay Parent, and we believe this information allows a better
understanding of our performance and prospects for future net cash flows.

Teekay LNG

Teekay LNG’s vessels primarily compete in the LNG and LPG markets. LNG carriers are usually chartered to carry LNG pursuant to time-charter
contracts, where a vessel is hired for a fixed period of time and the charter rate is payable to the owner on a monthly basis and in advance. LNG
shipping historically has been transacted with long-term, fixed-rate time-charter contracts. LNG projects require significant capital expenditures and
typically involve an integrated chain of dedicated facilities and cooperative activities. Accordingly, the overall success of an LNG project depends
heavily  on  long-range  planning  and  coordination  of  project  activities,  including  marine  transportation.  Most  shipping  requirements  for  new  LNG
projects continue to be provided on a long-term basis, though the level of spot voyages (typically consisting of a single voyage), short-term time-
charters and medium-term time-charters have grown in recent years.

In the LNG market, Teekay LNG competes principally with other private and state-controlled energy and utilities companies that generally operate
captive  fleets,  and  independent  ship  owners  and  operators.  Many  major  energy  companies  compete  directly  with  independent  owners  by
transporting  LNG  for  third  parties  in  addition  to  their  own  LNG.  Given  the  complex,  long-term  nature  of  LNG  projects,  major  energy  companies
historically have transported LNG through their captive fleets. However, independent fleet operators have been obtaining an increasing percentage
of charters for new or expanded LNG projects as some major energy companies have continued to divest non-core businesses.

LNG  carriers  transport  LNG  internationally  between  liquefaction  facilities  and  import  terminals. After  natural  gas  is  transported  by  pipeline  from
production  fields  to  a  liquefaction  facility,  it  is  supercooled  to  a  temperature  of  approximately  negative  260  degrees  Fahrenheit.  This  process
reduces its volume to approximately 1/600th of its volume in a gaseous state. The reduced volume facilitates economical storage and transportation
by ship over long distances, enabling countries with limited natural gas reserves or limited access to long-distance transmission pipelines to meet
their demand for natural gas. LNG carriers include a sophisticated containment system that holds the LNG and provides insulation to reduce the
amount of LNG that boils off naturally. That natural boil off is either used as fuel to power the engines on the ship or it can be reliquified and put
back into the tanks. LNG is transported overseas in specially built tanks on double-hulled ships to a receiving terminal, where it is offloaded and
stored  in  insulated  tanks.  In  regasification  facilities  at  the  receiving  terminal,  the  LNG  is  returned  to  its  gaseous  state  (or  regasified)  and  then
shipped by pipeline for distribution to natural gas customers.

With  the  exception  of  the  Arctic  Spirit  and  Polar  Spirit,  which  are  the  only  two  ships  in  the  world  that  utilize  the  Ishikawajima  Harima  Heavy
Industries Self Supporting Prismatic Tank IMO Type B (or IHI SPB) independent tank technology, Teekay LNG's fleet makes use of one of the Gaz
Transport  and Technigaz  (or  GTT)  membrane  containment  systems. The  GTT  membrane  systems  are  used  in  the  majority  of  LNG  tankers  now
being constructed. New LNG carriers generally have an expected lifespan of approximately 35 to 40 years. Unlike the oil tanker industry, there are
currently no regulations that require the phase-out from trading of LNG carriers after they reach a certain age. As at December 31, 2020, Teekay
LNG's LNG carriers, including equity-accounted vessels, had an average age of approximately eight years, compared to the world LNG carrier fleet
average age of approximately 10 years. In addition, as at that date, there were approximately 622 vessels in the world LNG fleet and approximately
163  additional  LNG  carriers  under  construction  or  on  order  for  delivery  through  2023,  inclusive  of  floating  storage  units  and  floating  storage
regasification units.

In the LPG market, Teekay LNG competes principally with independent ship owners and operators, and other private and state-controlled energy
and chemical companies that generally operate captive fleets.

LPG  shipping  involves  the  transportation  of  three  main  categories  of  cargo:  liquid  petroleum  gases,  including  propane,  butane  and  ethane;
petrochemical gases including ethylene, propylene and butadiene; and ammonia. LPG carriers are mainly chartered to carry LPG on time-charters,
contracts  of  affreightment  or  spot  voyage  charters.  The  two  largest  consumers  of  LPG  are  residential  users  and  the  petrochemical  industry.
Residential users, particularly in developing regions where electricity and gas pipelines are not developed, do not have fuel switching alternatives
and generally are not LPG price sensitive. The petrochemical industry, however, has the ability to switch between LPG and other feedstock fuels
depending  on  price  and  availability  of  alternatives. As  at  December  31,  2020, Teekay  LNG's  LPG  and  multi-gas  carriers  had  an  average  age  of
approximately ten years compared to world average of 15 years as of December 31, 2020.

As of December 31, 2020, the worldwide LPG carrier fleet consisted of approximately 1,498 vessels and approximately 99 additional LPG vessels
on  order  for  delivery  through  2023.  LPG  carriers  range  in  size  from  approximately  100  to  approximately  98,000  cubic  meters  (or  cbm).
Approximately  41%  (in  terms  of  vessel  numbers)  of  the  worldwide  fleet  is  less  than  5,000  cbm.  New  LPG  carriers  generally  have  an  expected
lifespan of approximately 30 to 35 years.

Teekay  LNG  includes  all  of  our  LNG  and  LPG  carriers. As  at  December  31,  2020,  Teekay  LNG  had  ownership  interests  in  47  LNG  carriers.  In
addition,  as  at  December  31,  2020,  Teekay  LNG  had  full  ownership  of  seven  LPG  carriers  and  50%  ownership,  through  its  50%  joint  venture
agreement with Exmar LPG BVBA (or the Exmar LPG Joint Venture), in another 20 LPG carriers and three chartered-in LPG carriers.

Teekay Tankers

Teekay Tankers owns all of our conventional crude oil tankers and product carriers. Our conventional crude oil tankers and product tankers primarily 
operate in the spot-tanker market or are subject to time charters or contracts of affreightment that are priced on a spot-market basis or are short-
term,  fixed-rate  contracts.  We  consider  contracts  that  have  an  original  term  of  less  than  one  year  in  duration  to  be  short-term.  Certain  of  our 
conventional crude oil tankers and product tankers are on fixed-rate time-charter contracts with an initial duration of at least one year. 

Most of Teekay Tankers’ conventional tankers operate pursuant to revenue sharing agreements (or RSAs). The RSAs are designed to spread the 
costs  and  risks  associated  with  operation  of  vessels  and  to  share  the  net  revenues  (revenues  less  voyage  expenses  and  other  applicable 
expenses)  earned  by  all  of  the  vessels  in  the  RSA,  based  on  the  actual  earning  days  each  vessel  is  available  and  the  relative  performance 
capabilities,  including  speed  and  bunker  consumption  of  each  vessel.  The  performance  capabilities  of  each  vessel  are  adjusted  on  standard 
intervals based on current data. In addition, Teekay Tankers' share of the net revenues includes additional amounts, consisting of a per vessel per 
day fee and a percentage of the gross revenues related to the vessels of third-party vessel owners, based on their responsibilities in employing the 
vessels subject to the RSAs on voyage charters or time-charters. As of December 31, 2020, 43 of Teekay Tankers' owned and leased vessels and 
three of Teekay Tankers' time-chartered in vessels operated in the spot market through employment on spot voyage charters. 21 of Teekay Tankers' 
Suezmax tankers, 12 of the Aframax tankers and six of the LR2 product tankers in its fleet, as well as 18 vessels not in its fleet and owned by third 
parties, were subject to RSAs. The vessels subject to the RSAs are employed and operated in the spot market or pursuant to time charters of less 
than one year.

Teekay  Tankers’  vessels  compete  primarily  in  the Aframax  and  Suezmax  tanker  markets.  In  these  markets,  international  seaborne  oil  and  other 
petroleum  products  transportation  services  are  provided  by  two  main  types  of  operators:  captive  fleets  of  major  oil  companies  (both  private  and 
state-owned) and independent ship-owner fleets. Many major oil companies and other oil trading companies, the primary charterers of our vessels, 
also  operate  their  own  vessels  and  transport  their  own  oil  and  oil  for  third-party  charterers  in  direct  competition  with  independent  owners  and 
operators. Competition for charters in the Aframax and Suezmax spot charter market is intense and is based upon price, location, the size, age, 
condition and acceptability of the vessel, and the reputation of the vessel’s manager.

Teekay  Tankers  competes  principally  with  other  owners  in  the  spot-charter  market  through  the  global  tanker  charter  market.  This  market  is 
comprised  of  tanker  broker  companies  that  represent  both  charterers  and  ship-owners  in  chartering  transactions.  Within  this  market,  some 
transactions,  referred  to  as  “market  cargoes,”  are  offered  by  charterers  through  two  or  more  brokers  simultaneously  and  shown  to  the  widest 
possible range of owners; other transactions, referred to as “private cargoes,” are given by the charterer to only one broker and shown selectively to 
a limited number of owners whose tankers are most likely to be acceptable to the charterer and are in position to undertake the voyage.

Teekay Tankers’ competition in the Aframax (85,000 to 124,999 dwt) market is also affected by the availability of other size vessels that compete in 
that market. Suezmax (125,000 to 199,999 dwt) vessels and Panamax (55,000 to 84,999 dwt) vessels can compete for many of the same charters 
for which our Aframax tankers compete; Aframax size vessels and VLCCs (200,000 to 319,999 dwt) can compete for many of the same charters for 
which our Suezmax tankers may compete. Because of their large size, Very Large Crude Carriers (or VLCCs) and Ultra Large Crude Carriers (or 
ULCCs)  (320,000+  dwt)  rarely  compete  directly  with  Aframax  tankers,  and  ULCCs  rarely  compete  with  Suezmax  tankers  for  specific  charters. 
However, because VLCCs and ULCCs comprise a substantial portion of the total capacity of the market, movements by such vessels into Suezmax 
trades and of Suezmax vessels into Aframax trades would heighten the already intense competition.

Teekay Tankers also competes in the Long Range 2 (or LR2) (85,000 to 109,999 dwt) product tanker market. Competition in the LR2 product tanker 
market is affected by the availability of other size vessels that compete in the market. Long Range 1 (or LR1) (55,000-84,999 dwt) size vessels can 
compete for many of the same charters for which Teekay Tankers' LR2 tankers compete.

The operation of tanker vessels, as well as the seaborne transportation of crude oil and refined petroleum products, is a competitive market. There 
are several large operators of Aframax, Suezmax, and LR2 tonnage that provide these services globally.

Teekay  Tankers  believes  that  it  has  competitive  advantages  in  the  Aframax  and  Suezmax  tanker  market  as  a  result  of  the  quality,  type  and 
dimensions of its vessels and its market share in the Indo-Pacific and Atlantic Basins. As of December 31, 2020, its Aframax/LR2 tanker fleet had 
an average age of approximately 12.2 years and its Suezmax tanker fleet had an average age of approximately 11.0 years. This compares to an 
average age for the world oil tanker fleet of approximately 11.3 years, for the world Aframax/LR2 tanker fleet of approximately 11.2 years and for the 
world Suezmax tanker fleet of approximately 10.3 years.

Teekay Tankers  acquired  a  ship-to-ship  transfer  business  (now  known  as Teekay  Marine  Solutions  or  TMS)  in  July  2015  from  a  company  jointly 
owned  by  Teekay  and  I.M.  Skaugen  SE  (or  Skaugen).  TMS  provided  a  full  suite  of  ship-to-ship  transfer  services  in  the  oil,  gas  and  dry  bulk 
industries. In addition to full service lightering and lightering support, it also provided consultancy, terminal management and project development 
services. In April 2020, Teekay Tankers completed the sale of its non-U.S. portion of the TMS business, as well as its LNG terminal management 
business. 

Teekay Parent

Our long-term vision is for Teekay Parent to be primarily a portfolio manager and project developer with the Teekay Group’s fixed assets primarily 
owned directly by its Daughter Entities. Our primary financial objectives for Teekay Parent are to increase the value of our investments in Teekay 
LNG and Teekay Tankers, increase Teekay Parent’s free cash flow per share and, as a service provider to its Daughter Entities and to third parties, 
provide  scale  and  other  benefits  across  the Teekay  Group.  We  also  intend  to  (a)  continue  to  reduce  debt  of Teekay  Parent,  including  by  selling 
assets in the future and using the net proceeds to repay debt and (b) seek to increase the distributions of Teekay LNG in a sustainable manner and 
consider paying dividends from Teekay Tankers from time to time, balanced with other capital allocation priorities.

FPSO Units

FPSO units are offshore production facilities that are ship-shaped or cylindrical-shaped and store processed crude oil in tanks located in the hull of 
the  vessel.  FPSO  units  are  typically  used  as  production  facilities  to  develop  marginal  oil  fields  or  deepwater  areas  remote  from  existing  pipeline 
infrastructure.  Of  four  major  types  of  floating  production  systems,  FPSO  units  are  the  most  common  type.  Typically,  the  other  types  of  floating 
production systems do not have significant storage and need to be connected into a pipeline system or use an FSO unit for storage. FPSO units are 
less weight-sensitive than other types of floating production systems and their extensive deck area provides flexibility in process plant layouts. In 
addition, the ability to utilize surplus or aging tanker hulls for conversion to an FPSO unit provides a relatively inexpensive solution compared to the 
new construction of other floating production systems. A majority of the cost of an FPSO comes from its top-side production equipment and thus, 
FPSO units are expensive relative to conventional tankers. An FPSO unit carries on board all the necessary production and processing facilities 
normally associated with a fixed production platform. As the name suggests, FPSO units are not fixed permanently to the seabed but are designed 
to  be  moored  at  one  location  for  long  periods  of  time.  In  a  typical  FPSO  unit  installation,  the  untreated  well-stream  is  brought  to  the  surface  via 
subsea equipment on the sea floor that is connected to the FPSO unit by flexible flow lines called risers. The risers carry oil, gas and water from the 
ocean floor to the vessel, which processes it on board. The resulting crude oil is stored in the hull of the vessel and subsequently transferred to 
tankers either via a buoy or tandem loading system for transport to shore.

Traditionally for large field developments, the major oil companies have owned and operated new, custom-built FPSO units. FPSO units for smaller 
fields have generally been provided by independent FPSO contractors under life-of-field production contracts, where the contract’s duration is for 
the useful life of the oil field. FPSO units have been used to develop offshore fields around the world since the late 1970s. Most independent FPSO 
contractors have backgrounds in marine energy transportation, oil field services or oil field engineering and construction. 

The Sevan Hummingbird FPSO unit is on a charter contract with Spirit Energy Ltd (or Spirit Energy) in the North Sea until March 2023. The contract 
is based on a fixed charter rate and is subject to early termination options. 

In March 2020, Teekay Parent entered into a new bareboat charter contract with the existing charterer of the Petrojarl Foinaven FPSO unit, which 
can be extended up to December 2030. Under the terms of the new contract, Teekay Parent received a cash payment of $67 million in April 2020 
and will receive a nominal per day rate over the life of the contract and a lump sum payment at the end of the contract period, which is expected to 
cover the costs of recycling the FPSO unit in accordance with the EU ship recycling regulations. 

Oil production under the existing contract for the Petrojarl Banff FPSO unit ceased on June 1, 2020, at which time Teekay Parent began incurring 
decommissioning/asset  retirement  costs.  Under  the  agreement  with  the  customer,  Teekay  Parent  has  until  June  2023  to  complete  the  required 
decommissioning work. In December 2020, Teekay Parent entered into a contract to recycle the Petrojarl Banff FPSO unit in Denmark in 2021.

Our Consolidated Fleet under Management

As at December 31, 2020, Teekay and its Daughter Entities operated under management a fleet of 140 vessels (excluding vessels managed for 
third parties), including chartered-in vessels but excluding an Aframax tanker newbuilding that is scheduled to be delivered in the fourth quarter of 
2022 under a seven-year time charter-in contract. The following table summarizes our fleet under management as at December 31, 2020:

The in-charter contract for the Suksan Salamander FSO unit was terminated in March 2021.

Our vessels are of Bahamian, Belgian, Danish International Register, Hong Kong, Isle of Man, Marshall Islands, Singapore, and Spanish registry.

Many of our Aframax and Suezmax vessels have been designed and constructed as substantially identical sister ships. These vessels can, in many 
situations, be interchanged, providing scheduling flexibility and greater capacity utilization. In addition, spare parts and technical knowledge can be 
applied  to  all  the  vessels  in  the  particular  series,  thereby  generating  operating  efficiencies.  In  addition  to  the  vessels  shown  in  the  above  table, 
Teekay LNG also owns a 30% interest in an LNG receiving and regasification terminal in Bahrain.

Please read “Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 8 – Long-Term Debt” for information with respect to major encumbrances against our vessels.

Safety, Management of Ship Operations and Administration

Safety  and  Environmental  Compliance  are  our  top  operational  priorities.  We  operate  our  vessels  in  a  manner  intended  to  protect  the  safety  and 
health of our employees, and to minimize the impact on the environment and society. We seek to effectively manage risk in the organization using a 
three-tiered  approach  at  an  operational,  management  and  corporate  level,  enabling  a  clear  line  of  sight  throughout  the  organization. All  of  our 
operational employees receive training in the use of risk tools and the management system. We also have an approved competency management 
system in place to ensure our seafarers continue their professional development and are competent before being promoted to more senior roles.

We believe in continuous improvement, which has seen our safety and environmental culture develop over a significant time period. Health, Safety 
and  Environmental  Program  milestones  include  the  roll-out  of  our  Environmental  Leadership  Program  (2005),  Safety  in  Action  (2007),  Quality 
Assurance  and  Training  Officer  Program  (2008),  Operational  Leadership  -  The  Journey  (2010),  E-Colours  (2014),  Significant  Incident  Potential 
(2015),  Navigation  Handbook  (2016),  Risk  Tool  Handbook  (2017),  Safety  Management  System  upgrade  (2018),  and  our  recently  revised 
Operational Leadership - The Journey. The Operational Leadership booklet sets out our operational expectations and responsibilities and contains 
our  safety  commitments,  environmental  commitments,  leadership  commitments  and  our  Health,  Safety,  Security  and  Environmental  &  Quality 
Assurance Policy, which is signed by all employees and empowers them to work safely, to live Teekay’s vision, and to look after one another. 

Key  performance  indicators  facilitate  regular  monitoring  of  our  operational  performance.  Targets  are  set  on  an  annual  basis  to  drive  continuous 
improvement, and indicators are reviewed quarterly to determine if remedial action is necessary to reach the targets.

We,  through  certain  of  our  subsidiaries,  assist  our  operating  subsidiaries  in  managing  their  ship  operations. All  vessels  are  operated  under  our 
comprehensive  and  integrated  Safety  Management  System  that  complies  with  the  International  Safety  Management  Code  (or  ISM  Code),  the 
International  Standards  Organization’s  (or  ISO)  9001  for  Quality Assurance,  ISO  14001  for  Environment  Management  Systems,  ISO  45001  for 
Occupational Health and Safety Management System and the Maritime Labour Convention 2006 (MLC 2006) that became effective in 2013. The 
management  system  is  certified  by  Det  Norske  Veritas  Germanischer  Lloyd  (or  DNV-GL),  the  Norwegian  classification  society.  It  has  also  been 
separately  approved  by  the Australian  and  Spanish  flag  administrations. Although  certification  is  valid  for  five  years,  compliance  with  the  above-
mentioned  standards  is  confirmed  on  a  yearly  basis  by  a  rigorous  auditing  procedure  that  includes  both  internal  audits  as  well  as  external 
verification audits by DNV-GL and certain flag states.

Since 2010, we have produced a publicly available sustainability report that reflects the efforts, achievements, results and challenges faced by us 
and  our  affiliates  relating  to  several  key  areas,  including  emissions,  climate  change,  corporate  social  responsibility,  diversity  and  health,  safety 
environment and quality. We recognize the significance of ESG considerations and in 2020, set an ESG strategy foundation which will direct our 
efforts and performance in the years ahead. Our strategy is focused on three broad areas; allocate capital to support the global energy transition, 
operate our existing fleets as safely and efficiently as possible, and further strengthen our ESG profile. Annual targets are set for the organization 
and are closely monitored.

We provide, through certain of our subsidiaries, expertise in various functions critical to the operations of our operating subsidiaries. We believe this 
arrangement  affords  a  safe,  efficient  and  cost-effective  operation.  Our  subsidiaries  also  provide  to  us  access  to  human  resources,  financial  and 
other administrative functions pursuant to administrative services agreements.

Critical ship management functions undertaken by our subsidiaries are:

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

vessel maintenance (including repairs and dry docking) and certification;

crewing by competent seafarers;

procurement of stores, bunkers and spare parts;

management of emergencies and incidents;

supervision of shipyard and projects during new-building, conversions, lay up and recycling;

terminal support;

insurance; and

financial management services.

These functions are supported by onboard and onshore systems for maintenance, inventory, purchasing and budget management.

32

Our day-to-day focus on cost efficiencies is applied to all aspects of our operations. In 2003, Teekay Corporation and two other shipping companies 
established a purchasing cooperation agreement called the TBW Alliance, which leverages the purchasing power of the combined fleets, mainly in 
such commodity areas as marine lubricants, coatings and chemicals and gases. 

Risk of Loss and Insurance

The operation of any ocean-going vessel or facility carries an inherent risk of catastrophic marine disasters, death or injury of persons and property 
losses  caused  by  adverse  weather  conditions,  mechanical  failures,  human  error,  war,  terrorism,  piracy  and  other  circumstances  or  events.  In 
addition,  the  transportation  and  transfer/lightering  of  crude  oil,  petroleum  products,  LNG  and  LPG  is  subject  to  the  risk  of  spills  and  to  business 
interruptions due to political circumstances in foreign countries, hostilities, labor strikes, sanctions and boycotts, whether relating to us or any of our 
joint venture partners, suppliers or customers. The occurrence of any of these events may result in loss of revenues or increased costs.

We  carry  hull  and  machinery  (marine  and  war  risks)  and  protection  and  indemnity  insurance  coverage,  and  other  liability  insurance,  to  protect 
against  most  of  the  accident-related  risks  involved  in  the  conduct  of  our  business.  Hull  and  machinery  insurance  covers  loss  of  or  damage  to  a 
vessel due to marine perils such as collision, grounding and weather. Protection and indemnity insurance indemnifies us against liabilities incurred 
while  operating  vessels,  including  injury  to  our  crew  or  third  parties,  cargo  loss  and  pollution. The  current  maximum  amount  of  our  coverage  for 
pollution is $1 billion per vessel per incident. We also carry insurance policies covering war risks (including piracy and terrorism) and, for some of 
our LNG carriers, loss of revenues resulting from vessel off-hire time due to a marine casualty. 

We  believe  that  our  current  insurance  coverage  is  adequate  to  protect  against  most  of  the  accident-related  risks  involved  in  the  conduct  of  our 
business and that we maintain appropriate levels of environmental damage and pollution insurance coverage. However, we cannot guarantee that 
all  covered  risks  are  adequately  insured  against,  that  any  particular  claim  will  be  paid  or  that  we  will  be  able  to  procure  adequate  insurance 
coverage at commercially reasonable rates in the future. More stringent environmental regulations have resulted in increased costs for, and may 
result in the lack of availability of, insurance against risks of environmental damage or pollution. In addition, the cost of protection and indemnity 
insurance has significantly increased during 2021.

In  our  operations,  we  use  a  thorough  risk  management  program  that  includes,  among  other  things,  risk  analysis  tools,  maintenance  and 
assessment programs, a seafarers' competence training program, seafarers' workshops and membership in emergency response organizations.

We have achieved certification under the standards reflected in ISO 9001 for quality assurance, ISO 14001 for environment management systems, 
ISO  45001:2018,  and  the  IMO’s  International  Management  Code  for  the  Safe  Operation  of  Ships  and  Pollution  Prevention  on  a  fully  integrated 
basis.

Operations Outside of the United States

Because  our  operations  are  primarily  conducted  outside  of  the  United  States,  we  are  affected  by  currency  fluctuations,  to  the  extent  we  do  not 
contract in U.S. dollars, and by changing economic, political and governmental conditions in the countries where we engage in business or where 
our  vessels  are  registered.  Past  political  conflicts  in  those  regions,  particularly  in  the Arabian  Gulf,  have  included  attacks  on  tankers,  mining  of 
waterways and other efforts to disrupt shipping in the area. Vessels trading in certain regions have also been subject to acts of piracy. In addition to 
tankers,  targets  of  terrorist  attacks  could  include  oil  pipelines,  LNG  facilities  and  offshore  oil  fields. The  escalation  of  existing  or  the  outbreak  of 
future, hostilities or other political instability in regions where we operate could affect our trade patterns, increase insurance costs, increase tanker 
operational  costs  and  otherwise  adversely  affect  our  operations  and  performance.  In  addition,  tariffs,  trade  embargoes,  and  other  economic 
sanctions by the United States or other countries against countries in the Indo-Pacific Basin or elsewhere as a result of terrorist attacks or otherwise 
may limit trading activities with those countries, which could also adversely affect our operations and performance.

Customers

We  have  derived,  and  believe  that  we  will  continue  to  derive,  a  significant  portion  of  our  revenues  from  a  limited  number  of  customers.  Our 
customers  include  major  energy  and  utility  companies,  major  oil  traders,  large  oil  and  LNG  consumers  and  petroleum  product  producers, 
government agencies, and various other entities that depend upon marine transportation. No customer accounted for over 10% of our consolidated 
revenues during 2020 (2019 – one customer for 12%, or $227.6 million; 2018 – one customer for 11%, or $195.0 million). The loss of any significant 
customer or a substantial decline in the amount of services requested by a significant customer, or the inability of a significant customer to pay for 
our services, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Flag, Classification, Audits and Inspections

Our vessels are registered with reputable flag states, and the hull and machinery of all of our vessels have been “Classed” by one of  the major 
classification societies and members of International Association of Classification Societies ltd (or IACS): Bureau Veritas (or BV), Lloyd’s Register of 
Shipping, the American Bureau of Shipping or DNV-GL.

The applicable classification society certifies that the vessel’s design and build conform to the applicable Class rules and meets the requirements of 
the applicable rules and regulations of the country of registry of the vessel and the international conventions to which that country is a signatory. 
The  classification  society  also  verifies  throughout  the  vessel’s  life  that  it  continues  to  be  maintained  in  accordance  with  those  rules.  In  order  to 
validate  this,  the  vessels  are  surveyed  by  the  classification  society,  in  accordance  with  the  classification  society  rules,  which  in  the  case  of  our 
vessels  follows  a  comprehensive  five-year  special  survey  cycle,  renewed  every  fifth  year.  During  each  five-year  period,  the  vessel  undergoes 
annual and intermediate surveys, the scrutiny and intensity of which is primarily dictated by the age of the vessel. 

33

In addition to class surveys, the vessel’s flag state also verifies the condition of the vessel during annual flag state inspections, either independently 
or  by  additional  authorization  to  class.  Also,  port  state  authorities  of  a  vessel’s  port  of  call  are  authorized  under  international  conventions  to 
undertake regular and spot checks of vessels visiting their jurisdiction.

Processes followed onboard are audited by either the flag state or the classification society acting on behalf of the flag state to ensure that they 
meet  the  requirements  of  the  ISM  Code.  DNV-GL  typically  carries  out  this  task.  We  also  follow  an  internal  process  of  internal  audits  undertaken 
annually at each office and vessel.

We follow a comprehensive inspections scheme supported by our sea staff, shore-based operational and technical specialists and members of our 
QATO program. We typically carry out a minimum of two such inspections annually, which helps ensure that:

•

•

•

•

•

our vessels and operations adhere to our operating standards;

the structural integrity of the vessel is being maintained;

machinery and equipment are being maintained to give reliable service;

we are optimizing performance in terms of speed and fuel consumption; and

our vessels’ appearance supports our brand and meets customer expectations.

Our customers also often carry out vetting inspections under the Ship Inspection Report Program, which is a significant safety initiative introduced 
by  the  Oil  Companies  International  Marine  Forum  to  specifically  address  concerns  about  sub-standard  vessels.  The  inspection  results  permit 
charterers to screen a vessel to ensure that it meets their general and specific risk-based shipping requirements.

We  believe  that  the  heightened  environmental  and  quality  concerns  of  insurance  underwriters,  regulators  and  charterers  will  generally  lead  to 
greater  scrutiny,  inspection  and  safety  requirements  on  all  vessels  in  the  oil  tanker  and  LNG  and  LPG  carrier  markets  and  will  accelerate  the 
scrapping or phasing out of older vessels throughout these markets.

Overall,  we  believe  that  our  well-maintained  and  high-quality  vessels  provide  us  with  a  competitive  advantage  in  the  current  environment  of 
increasing regulation and customer emphasis on quality of service.

Regulations

General

Our  business  and  the  operation  of  our  vessels  are  significantly  affected  by  international  conventions  and  national,  state  and  local  laws  and 
regulations in the jurisdictions in which our vessels operate, as well as in the country or countries of their registration. Because these conventions, 
laws and regulations change frequently, we cannot predict the ultimate cost of compliance or their impact on the resale price or useful life of our 
vessels. Additional conventions, laws, and regulations may be adopted that could limit our ability to do business or increase the cost of our doing 
business,  and  that  may  materially  affect  our  operations.  We  are  required  by  various  governmental  and  quasi-governmental  agencies  to  obtain 
permits, licenses, and certificates with respect to our operations. Subject to the discussion below and to the fact that the kinds of permits, licenses 
and certificates required for the operations of the vessels we own will depend on a number of factors, we believe that we will be able to continue to 
obtain all permits, licenses and certificates material to the conduct of our operations.

International Maritime Organization 

The IMO is the United Nations’ agency for maritime safety and prevention of pollution. IMO regulations relating to pollution prevention for oil tankers 
have  been  adopted  by  many  of  the  jurisdictions  in  which  our  tanker  fleet  operates.  Under  IMO  regulations  and  subject  to  limited  exceptions,  a 
tanker  must  be  of  double-hull  construction  in  accordance  with  the  requirements  set  out  in  these  regulations  or  be  of  another  approved  design 
ensuring the same level of protection against oil pollution. All of our tankers and gas carriers are double-hulled.

Many  countries,  but  not  the  United  States,  have  ratified  and  follow  the  liability  regime  adopted  by  the  IMO  and  set  out  in  the  International 
Convention on Civil Liability for Oil Pollution Damage, 1969, as amended (or CLC). Under this convention, a vessel’s registered owner is strictly 
liable for pollution damage caused in the territorial waters of a contracting state by discharge of persistent oil (e.g., crude oil, fuel oil, heavy diesel oil 
or lubricating oil), subject to certain defenses. The right to limit liability to specified amounts that are periodically revised is forfeited under the CLC 
when the spill is caused by the owner’s actual fault or when the spill is caused by the owner’s intentional or reckless conduct. Vessels trading to 
contracting  states  must  provide  evidence  of  insurance  covering  the  limited  liability  of  the  owner.  In  jurisdictions  where  the  CLC  has  not  been 
adopted, various legislative regimes or common law governs, and liability is imposed either on the basis of fault or in a manner similar to the CLC.

IMO regulations also include the International Convention for Safety of Life at Sea (or SOLAS), including amendments to SOLAS implementing the 
International Ship and Port Facility Security Code (or ISPS), the ISM Code, the International Convention on Load Lines of 1966, and, specifically 
with respect to LNG and LPG carriers, the International Code for Construction and Equipment of Ships Carrying Liquefied Gases in Bulk (the IGC 
Code) and International Code for Ships operating in Polar Waters (or Polar Code). SOLAS provides rules for the construction of and the equipment 
required  for  commercial  vessels  and  includes  regulations  for  their  safe  operation.  Flag  states  which  have  ratified  the  convention  and  the  treaty 
generally employ the classification societies, which have incorporated SOLAS requirements into their class rules, to undertake surveys to confirm 
compliance.

34

SOLAS  and  other  IMO  regulations  concerning  safety,  including  those  relating  to  treaties  on  the  training  of  shipboard  personnel,  lifesaving 
appliances, navigation, radio equipment and the global maritime distress and safety system, are applicable to our operations. Non-compliance with 
IMO regulations, including SOLAS, the ISM Code, ISPS Code, IGC Code for LNG and LPG carriers and Polar Code may subject us to increased 
liability  or  penalties,  may  lead  to  decreases  in  available  insurance  coverage  for  affected  vessels  and  may  result  in  the  denial  of  access  to  or 
detention in some ports. For example, the United States Coast Guard (or USCG) and European Union authorities have indicated that vessels not in 
compliance  with  the  ISM  Code  will  be  prohibited  from  trading  in  the  United  States  and  European  Union  ports.  The  ISM  Code  requires  vessel 
operators to obtain a safety management certification for each vessel they manage, evidencing the shipowner’s development and maintenance of 
an  extensive  safety  management  system.  Each  of  the  existing  vessels  in  our  fleet  is  currently  ISM  Code-certified,  and  we  obtain,  a  safety 
management certificate for each newbuilding on delivery.

LNG  and  LPG  carriers  are  also  subject  to  regulation  under  the  IGC  Code.  Each  LNG  and  LPG  carrier  must  obtain  a  certificate  of  compliance 
evidencing that it meets the requirements of the IGC Code, including requirements relating to its design and construction. Each of our LNG and 
LPG carriers is currently IGC Code-compliant. Amendments to the IGC Code, aligning wheelhouse window fire-rating requirements with those in 
SOLAS chapter II-2, were adopted in 2016 and became effective on January 1, 2020.

Annex VI to the IMO’s International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships (or MARPOL) (or Annex VI) sets limits on sulfur oxide (or 
SOx)  and  nitrogen  oxide  (or  NOx)  emissions  from  ship  exhausts  and  prohibits  emissions  of  ozone  depleting  substances,  emissions  of  volatile 
compounds from cargo tanks and the incineration of specific substances. Annex VI also includes a world-wide cap on the sulfur content of fuel oil 
and allows for special “emission control areas” (or ECAs) to be established with more stringent controls on sulfur emissions. Annex VI provides for a 
three-tier reduction in NOx emissions from marine diesel engines, with the final tier (or Tier III) to apply to engines installed on vessels constructed 
on  or  after  January  1,  2016,  and  which  operate  in  the  North American  ECA  or  the  U.S.  Caribbean  Sea  ECA  as  well  as  ECAs  designated  in  the 
future by the IMO. Tier III limits are 80% below Tier I and these cannot be achieved without additional means such as Selective Catalytic Reduction 
(or SCR). In October 2016, the IMO’s Marine Environment Protection Committee (or MEPC) approved the designation of the North Sea (including 
the English Channel) and the Baltic Sea as ECAs for NOx emissions; these ECAs and the related amendments to Annex VI of MARPOL (with some 
exceptions) entered into effect on January 1, 2019. This requirement will be applicable for new ships constructed on or after January 1, 2021 if they 
visit the Baltic or North Sea (including the English Channel) and requires the future trading area of a ship to be assessed at the contract  stage. 
There are exemption provisions to allow ships with only Tier II engines, to navigate in a NOx Tier III ECA if the ship is departing from a shipyard 
where the ship is newly built or visiting a shipyard for conversion/repair/maintenance without loading/unloading cargoes. 

Effective January 1, 2020, Annex VI imposes a global limit for sulfur in fuel oil used on board ships of 0.50% m/m (mass by mass), regardless of 
whether  a  ship  is  operating  outside  a  designated  ECA.  The  ECA  limit  of  0.10%  will  still  apply,  as  will  any  applicable  local  regulations.  Effective 
March 1, 2020, the carriage of non-compliant fuel is prohibited. To comply with the 2020 global sulfur limit for fuel, ships may utilize different fuels 
containing low or very low sulfur (e.g., low sulfur fuel oil (or LSFO), very low sulfur fuel oil (VLSFO), low sulfur marine gas oil (or LSMGO), biofuels 
or  other  compliant  fuels  such  as  LNG),  or  utilize  exhaust  gas  cleaning  systems,  known  as  “scrubbers”.  Amendments  to  the  information  to  be 
included  in  bunker  delivery  notes  relating  to  the  supply  of  marine  fuel  oil  to  ships  fitted  with  alternative  mechanisms  to  address  sulfur  emission 
requirements (e.g., scrubbers) became effective January 1, 2019. At present, we have not installed any scrubbers on our existing gas fleet (nor do 
we have plans to do so). All of our LNG vessels are in compliance with 2020 global sulfur fuel regulations. Our fuel strategy is to use LNG as the 
primary fuel (except the Q-Flex LNG vessels) and compliant fuels as a secondary fuel. 

We have implemented procedures to comply with the 2020 sulfur limit in our conventional tanker fleet. We switched to burning compliant low sulfur 
fuel before the January 1, 2020 implementation date; we have not installed any scrubbers on our conventional tanker fleet. Although the IMO has 
issued  ISO  8217:2017  and  PAS  23263:19,  at  present,  neither  the  IMO  nor  the  International  Organization  for  Standardization  has  implemented 
globally accepted quality standards for 0.50% m/m fuel oil. We intend, and where applicable, expect our charterers to procure 0.50% m/m fuel oil 
from top tier suppliers. However, until such time that a globally accepted quality standard is issued, the quality of 0.50% m/m fuel oil that is supplied 
to the entire industry (including in respect of our vessels) is inherently uncertain. Low quality or a lack of access to high-quality low sulfur fuel may 
lead  to  a  disruption  in  our  operations  (including  mechanical  damage  to  our  vessels),  which  could  impact  our  business,  financial  condition,  and 
results of operations.

As of March 1, 2018, amendments to Annex VI impose new requirements for ships of 5,000 gross tonnage and above to collect fuel oil consumption 
data for ships, as well as certain other data including proxies for transport work. Amendments to MARPOL Annex VI that make the data collection 
system for fuel oil consumption of ships mandatory were adopted at the 70th session of the MEPC held in October 2016 and entered into force on 
March 1, 2018. The amendments require operators to update the vessels' Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan (or SEEMP) to include a part II 
describing  the  ship-specific  methodology  that  will  be  used  for  collecting  and  measuring  data  for  fuel  oil  consumption,  distance  travelled,  hours 
underway, ensuring data quality is maintained and the processes that will be used to report the data to the Administration. This has been verified as 
compliant on all ships for calendar year 2019. The data collection period for the 2020 calendar year has been completed, and the verification of the 
data is on-going. A Confirmation of Compliance has been provided by the Ship's Flag State Administration / Recognized Organization on behalf of 
Flag State and is kept on board.

IMO  regulations  required  that  as  of  January  1,  2015,  all  vessels  operating  within  ECAs  worldwide  recognized  under  MARPOL  Annex  VI  must 
comply  with  0.1%  sulfur  requirements.  Certain  modifications  were  necessary  in  order  to  optimize  operation  on  LSMGO  of  equipment  originally 
designed to operate on Heavy Fuel Oil (or HFO), and to ensure our compliance with the EU Directive. In addition, LSMGO is more expensive than 
HFO, and this impacts the costs of operations. We are primarily exposed to increased fuel costs through in our spot trading vessels, although our 
competitors bear a similar cost increase as this is a regulatory item applicable to all vessels. All required vessels in our fleet trading to and within 
regulated low sulfur areas are able to comply with fuel requirements. 

The IMO has issued guidance regarding protecting against acts of piracy off the coast of Somalia. We comply with these guidelines.

IMO Guidance for countering acts of piracy and armed robbery is published by the IMO’s Maritime Safety Committee (or MSC). MSC.1/Circ.1339 
(Piracy  and  armed  robbery  against  ships  in  waters  off  the  coast  of  Somalia)  outlines  Best  Management  Practices  for  protection  against  Somalia 
based  Piracy.  Specifically,  MSC.1/Circ.1339  provides  guidance  to  shipowners  and  ship  operators,  shipmasters,  and  crews  on  preventing  and 
suppressing acts of piracy and armed robbery and was adopted by the IMO through Resolution MSC.324(89). The Best Management Practices (or 

35

BMP)  is  a  joint  industry  publication  by  BIMCO,  ICS,  IGP&I  Clubs,  INTERTANKO  and  OCIMF  VIQ  Version  7  as  the  latest.  Our  fleet  follows  the 
guidance within BMP 5 when transiting in other regions with recognized threat levels for piracy and armed robbery, including West Africa.

The  IMO's  Ballast  Water  Management  Convention  entered  into  force  on  September  8,  2017.  The  convention  stipulates  two  standards  for 
discharged ballast water. The D-1 standard covers ballast water exchange while the D-2 standard covers ballast water treatment. The convention 
requires the implementation of either the D-1 or D-2 standard. There will be a transitional period from the entry into force to the International Oil 
Pollution  Prevention  (or  IOPP)  renewal  survey  in  which  ballast  water  exchange  (reg.  D-1)  can  be  employed.  The  IMO’s  MEPC  agreed  to  a 
compromise on the implementation dates for the D-2 discharge standard: ships constructed on or after September 8, 2017 must comply with the 
D-2 standard upon delivery. Existing ships should be D-2 compliant on the first IOPP renewal following entry into force if the survey is completed on
or after September 8, 2019, or a renewal IOPP survey was completed on or after September 8, 2014 but prior to September 8, 2017. Ships should
be D-2 compliant on the second IOPP renewal survey after September 8, 2017 if the first renewal survey after that date was completed prior to
September  8,  2019  and  if  the  previous  two  conditions  are  not  met.  Vessels  will  be  required  to  meet  the  discharge  standard  D-2  by  installing  an
approved BWTS.

Besides the IMO convention, ships sailing in U.S. waters are required to deploy a type approved BWTS which is compliant with USCG regulations. 
The  USCG  has  approved  a  number  of  BWTSs  both  nationally  and  internationally,  out  of  which  Alfa  Laval  (Sweden),  Ocean  Saver  (Norway), 
Techcross,  and  De  Nora  are  under  Teekay’s  approved  list  for  retrofit.  We  estimate  that  the  installation  of  approved  BWTS  will  cost  between  $2 
million and $3 million per vessel.

MARPOL  Annex  I  also  state  that  oil  residue  may  be  discharged  directly  from  the  sludge  tank  to  the  shore  reception  facility  through  standard 
discharge connections. They may also be discharged to the incinerator or to an auxiliary boiler suitable for burning the oil by means of a dedicated 
discharge  pump.  Amendments  to  Annex  I  expand  on  the  requirements  for  discharge  connections  and  piping  to  ensure  residues  are  properly 
disposed of. Annex I is applicable for existing vessels with a first renewal survey beginning on or after January 1, 2017.

Amendments to MARPOL Annex V were adopted at the 70th session of the MEPC held in October 2016 and entered into force on March 1, 2018. 
The changes include criteria for determining whether cargo residues are harmful to the marine environment and a new Garbage Record Book (or 
GRB)  format  with  a  new  garbage  category  for  e-waste.  Solid  bulk  cargo  as  per  regulation  VI/1-1.2  of  SOLAS,  other  than  grain,  shall  now  be 
classified as per the criteria in the new Appendix I of MARPOL Annex V, and the shipper shall then declare whether or not the cargo is harmful to 
the marine environment. A new form of the GRB has been included in Appendix II to MAROL Annex V. The GRB is now divided into two parts: Part I 
- for all garbage other than cargo residues, applicable to all ships. PART II - for cargo residues only applicable to ships carrying solid bulk cargo.
These changes are reflected in the vessels latest revised GRB.

The  IMO  has  also  adopted  an  International  Code  for  Ships  Operating  in  Polar  Waters  (or  Polar  Code)  which  deals  with  matters  regarding  the 
design, construction, equipment, operation, search and rescue and environmental protection in relation to ships operating in waters surrounding the 
two  poles.  The  Polar  Code  includes  both  safety  and  environmental  provisions.  The  Polar  Code  and  related  amendments  entered  into  force  in 
January 2017. The Polar Code is mandatory for new vessels built after January 1, 2017. For existing ships, this code will be applicable from the first 
intermediate  or  renewal  survey,  whichever  occurs  first,  beginning  on  or  after  January  1,  2018.  All  of  our  vessels  trading  in  this  area  are  fully 
compliant with the Polar Code.

MSC 91 adopted amendments to SOLAS Regulation II-2/10 to clarify that a minimum of two-way portable radiotelephone apparatus for each fire 
party  for  firefighters'  communication  shall  be  carried  on  board. These  radio  devices  shall  be  of  explosion  proof  type  or  intrinsically  safe  type. All 
existing ships built before July 1, 2014 should comply with this requirement by the first safety equipment survey after July 1, 2018. All new vessels 
constructed  (keel  laid)  on  or  after  July  1,  2014  must  comply  with  this  requirement  at  the  time  of  delivery.  Amendments  to  SOLAS  Regulation 
II-1/3/-12 on protection against noise, Regulation II-2/1 and II 2/10 on firefighting came into force on July 1, 2014. Existing ships built before July 1,
2014 were required to comply by July 1, 2019.

As per MSC. 338(91), requirements have been highlighted for audio and visual indicators for breathing apparatus which will alert the user before 
the volume of the air in the cylinder has been reduced to no less than 200 liters. This applies to ships constructed on or after July 1, 2014. Ships 
constructed before July 1, 2014 were required to comply no later than July 1, 2019. As of December 31, 2020, all of our vessels are in compliance 
with these requirements. 

Cyber-related risks are operational risks that are appropriately assessed and managed in accordance with the safety management requirements of 
the ISM Code. Cyber risks are required to be appropriately addressed in our safety management system no later than the first annual verification of 
the company's Document of Compliance after January 1, 2021. 

The  Maritime  Labour  Convention  (MLC)  2006  was  adopted  by  the  International  Labour  Conference  at  its  94th  (Maritime)  Session  (2006), 
establishing  minimum  working  and  living  conditions  for  seafarers.  The  convention  entered  into  force August  20,  2013,  with  further  amendments 
approved by the International Labour Conference at its 103rd Session (2014). The MLC establishes a single, coherent instrument embodying all up-
to-date standards of existing international maritime labour conventions and recommendations, as well as the fundamental principles to be found in 
other international labour conventions. All of our maritime labour contracts comply with the MLC. 

The  IMO  continues  to  review  and  introduce  new  regulations  and  as  such,  it  is  difficult  to  predict  what  additional  requirements,  if  any,  may  be 
adopted by the IMO and what effect, if any, such regulations might have on our operations.

European Union (or EU)

The  EU  has  adopted  legislation  that:  bans  from  European  waters  manifestly  sub-standard  vessels  (defined  as  vessels  that  have  been  detained 
twice by EU port authorities in the preceding two years); creates obligations on the part of EU member port states to inspect minimum percentages 
of  vessels  using  these  ports  annually;  provides  for  increased  surveillance  of  vessels  posing  a  high  risk  to  maritime  safety  or  the  marine 
environment; and provides the EU with greater authority and control over classification societies, including the ability to seek to suspend or revoke 
the authority of negligent societies.

36

Two regulations that are part of the implementation of the Port State Control Directive, came into force on January 1, 2011 and introduced a ranking 
system (published on a public website and updated daily) displaying shipping companies operating in the EU with the worst safety records. The 
ranking is judged upon the results of the technical inspections carried out on the vessels owned by a particular shipping company. Those shipping 
companies  that  have  the  most  positive  safety  records  are  rewarded  by  subjecting  them  to  fewer  inspections,  while  those  with  the  most  safety 
shortcomings or technical failings recorded upon inspection will in turn be subject to a greater frequency of official inspections to their vessels.

The EU has, by way of Directive 2005/35/EC, as amended by Directive 2009/123/EC, created a legal framework for imposing criminal penalties in 
the event of discharges of oil and other noxious substances from ships sailing in its waters, irrespective of their flag. This relates to discharges of oil 
or  other  noxious  substances  from  vessels.  Minor  discharges  shall  not  automatically  be  considered  as  offences,  except  where  repetition  leads  to 
deterioration in the quality of the water. The persons responsible may be subject to criminal penalties if they have acted with intent, recklessly or 
with serious negligence and the act of inciting, aiding and abetting a person to discharge a polluting substance may also lead to criminal penalties.

The EU adopted a Directive requiring the use of low sulfur fuel. Since January 1, 2015, vessels have been required to burn fuel with sulfur content 
not exceeding 0.1% while within EU member states’ territorial seas, exclusive economic zones and pollution control zones that are included in SOX 
Emission Control Areas. Other jurisdictions have also adopted similar regulations. 

All ships above 5,000 gross tonnage calling EU waters are required to comply with EU-MRV regulations. These regulations came into force on July 
1, 2015 and aim to reduce greenhouse gas (or GHG) emissions within the EU. It requires ships carrying out maritime transport activities to or from 
European  Economic Area  (or  EEA)  ports  to  monitor  and  report  information  including  verified  data  on  their  CO2  emissions  from  January  1,  2018 
onwards.  Data  collection  takes  place  on  a  per  voyage  basis  and  started  from  January  1,  2018.  The  reported  CO2  emissions,  together  with 
additional data (e.g. cargo, energy efficiency parameters), are to be verified by independent verifiers and sent to a central database, managed by 
the European Maritime Safety Agency (or EMSA). Teekay Corporation signed an agreement with DNV-GL for monitoring, verification & reporting as 
required by this regulation. We are presently using IMOS/Veslink forms which will have smooth interface with DNV-GL. The reporting period for the 
2019  calendar  year  has  been  completed  and  emission  reports  for  the  vessels  which  have  carried  out  EU  voyages  have  been  submitted  in  the 
THETIS Database. Based on emission reports submitted in THETIS, a document of compliance has been issued and is placed on board. 

The  EU  Ship  Recycling  Regulation  was  adopted  in  2013.  This  regulation  aims  to  prevent,  reduce  and  minimize  accidents,  injuries  and  other 
negative effects on human health and the environment when ships are recycled and the hazardous waste they contain is removed. The legislation 
applies to all ships flying the flag of an EU country and to vessels with non-EU flags that call at an EU port or anchorage. It sets out responsibilities 
for ship owners and for recycling facilities both in the EU and in other countries. Each new ship is required to have on board an inventory of the 
hazardous materials (such as asbestos, lead or mercury) it contains in either its structure or equipment. The use of certain hazardous materials is 
forbidden.  Before  a  ship  is  recycled,  its  owner  must  provide  the  company  carrying  out  the  work  with  specific  information  about  the  vessel  and 
prepare a ship recycling plan. Recycling may only take place at facilities listed on the EU ‘List of facilities’. 

The EU Ship Recycling Regulation generally entered into force on December 31, 2018, with certain provisions applicable from December 31, 2020. 
Compliance timelines are as follows: EU-flagged newbuildings were required to have onboard a verified Inventory of Hazardous Materials (or IHM) 
with a Statement of Compliance by December 31, 2018, existing EU-flagged vessels are required to have onboard a verified IHM with a Statement 
of  Compliance  by  December  31,  2020,  and  non-EU-flagged  vessels  calling  at  EU  ports  are  also  required  to  have  onboard  a  verified  IHM  with  a 
Statement of Compliance latest by December 31, 2020. Teekay LNG and Teekay Tankers contracted a class-approved HazMat expert company to 
assist  in  the  preparation  of  Inventory  of  Hazardous  Materials  and  obtaining  Statements  of  Compliance  for  its  vessels. The  EU  Commission  also 
adopted  a  European  List  of  approved  ship  recycling  facilities,  as  well  as  four  further  decisions  dealing  with  certification  and  other  administrative 
requirements set out in the EU Ship Recycling Regulation. In 2014, the Council Decision 2014/241/EU authorized EU countries having ships flying 
their flag or registered under their flag to ratify or to accede to the Hong Kong International Convention for the Safe and Environmentally Sound 
Recycling of Ships. The Hong Kong Convention is not yet ratified. 

North Sea

Our FPSO units operate in the North Sea.

There is no international regime in force which deals with compensation for oil pollution from offshore craft such as FPSOs. Whether the CLC and 
the International Convention on the Establishment of an International Fund for Compensation for Oil Pollution Damage 1971, as amended by the 
1992 Protocol (or the Fund Convention), which deal with liability and compensation for oil pollution and the Convention on Limitation of Liability for 
Maritime Claims 1976, as amended by the 1996 Protocol (or the 1976 Limitation of Liability Convention), which deals with limitation of liability for 
maritime  claims,  apply  to  FPSOs  is  neither  straightforward  nor  certain.  This  is  due  to  the  definition  of  “ship”  under  these  conventions  and  the 
requirement that oil is “carried” onboard the relevant vessel. Nevertheless, the wording of the 1992 Protocol to the CLC leaves room for arguing that 
FPSOs and oil pollution caused by them can come under the ambit of these conventions for the purposes of liability and compensation. However, 
the application of these conventions also depends on their implementation by the relevant domestic laws of the countries which are parties to them.

The UK’s Merchant Shipping Act 1995, as amended (or MSA), implements the CLC but uses a wider definition of a “ship” than the one used in the 
CLC and in its 1992 Protocol but still refers to the criteria used by the CLC. It is therefore doubtful that FPSOs fall within its wording. However, the 
MSA also includes separate provisions for liability for oil pollution. These apply to vessels which fall within a much wider definition and include non-
seagoing vessels. It is arguable that the wording of these MSA provisions is wide enough to cover oil pollution caused by offshore crafts such as 
FPSOs. The liability regime under these MSA provisions is similar to that imposed under the CLC but limitation of liability is subject to  the 1976 
Limitation of Liability Convention regime (as implemented in the MSA).

With  regard  to  the  1976  Limitation  of  Liability  Convention,  it  is,  again,  doubtful  whether  it  applies  to  FPSOs,  as  it  contains  certain  exceptions  in 
relation to vessels constructed for or adapted to and engaged in drilling and in relation to floating platforms constructed for the purpose of exploring 
or exploiting natural resources of the seabed or its subsoil. However, these exceptions are not included in the legislation implementing the 1976 
Limitation of Liability Convention in the UK, which is also to be found in the MSA. In addition, the MSA sets out a very wide definition of “ship” in 

37

relation  to  which  the  1976  Limitation  of  Liability  Convention  is  to  apply  and  there  is  room  for  argument  that  if  FPSOs  fall  within  that  definition  of 
“ship”, they are subject in the UK to the limitation provisions of the 1976 Limitation of Liability Convention.

In the absence of an international regime regulating liability and compensation for oil pollution caused by offshore oil and gas facilities, the Offshore 
Pollution  Liability Agreement  1974  was  entered  into  by  a  number  of  oil  companies  and  became  effective  in  1975. This  is  a  voluntary  industry  oil 
pollution  compensation  scheme  which  is  funded  by  the  parties  to  it. These  are  operators  or  intending  operators  of  offshore  facilities  used  in  the 
exploration for and production of oil and gas located within the jurisdictions of a number of “Designated States” which include the UK, Denmark, 
Norway, Germany, France, Greenland, Ireland, the Netherlands, the Isle of Man and the Faroe Islands. The scheme provides for strict liability of the 
relevant operator for pollution damage and remedial costs, subject to a limit, and the operators must provide evidence of financial responsibility in 
the form of insurance or other security to meet the liability under the scheme.

With  regard  to  FPSOs,  Chapter  7  of  Annex  I  of  MARPOL  (which  contains  regulations  for  the  prevention  of  oil  pollution)  sets  out  special 
requirements  for  fixed  and  floating  platforms,  including,  amongst  others,  FPSOs  and  FSUs.  The  IMO’s  MEPC  has  issued  guidelines  for  the 
application of MARPOL Annex I requirements to FPSOs and FSUs.

The  EU’s  Directive  2004/35/CE  on  environmental  liability  with  regard  to  the  prevention  and  remedying  of  environmental  damage  (or  the 
Environmental Liability Directive) deals with liability for environmental damage on the basis of the “polluter pays” principle. Environmental damage 
includes damage to protected species and natural habitats and damage to water and land. Under this Directive, operators whose activities caused 
environmental damage or the imminent threat of such damage are to be held liable for the damage (subject to certain exceptions). With regard to 
environmental damage caused by specific activities listed in the Directive, operators are strictly liable. This is without prejudice to their right to limit 
their liability in accordance with national legislation implementing the 1976 Limitation of Liability Convention. The Directive applies both to damage 
which has already occurred and where there is an imminent threat of damage. It also requires the relevant operator to take preventive action, to 
report  an  imminent  threat  and  any  environmental  damage  to  the  regulators  and  to  perform  remedial  measures,  such  as  clean-up.  The 
Environmental Liability Directive is implemented in the UK by the Environmental Damage (Prevention and Remediation) Regulations 2015.

In  June  2013,  the  EU  adopted  Directive  2013/30/EU  on  safety  of  offshore  oil  and  gas  operations  and  amending  Directive  2004/35/EC  (or  the 
Offshore Safety Directive). This Directive lays down minimum requirements for member states and the European Maritime Safety Agency for the 
purposes  of  reducing  the  occurrence  of  major  accidents  related  to  offshore  oil  and  gas  operations,  thus  increasing  protection  of  the  marine 
environment and coastal economies against pollution, establishing minimum conditions for safe offshore exploration and exploitation of oil and gas, 
and  limiting  disruptions  to  the  EU’s  energy  production  and  improving  responses  to  accidents.  The  Offshore  Safety  Directive  sets  out  extensive 
requirements,  such  as  preparation  of  a  major  hazard  report  with  risk  assessment,  emergency  response  plan  and  safety  and  environmental 
management  system  applicable  to  the  relevant  oil  and  gas  installation  before  the  planned  commencement  of  the  operations,  independent 
verification of safety and environmental critical elements identified in the risk assessment for the relevant oil and gas installation, and ensuring that 
factors such as the applicant’s safety and environmental performance and its financial capabilities or security to meet potential liabilities arising from 
the oil and gas operations are taken into account when considering granting a license.

Under the Offshore Safety Directive, Member States are to ensure that the relevant licensee is financially liable for the prevention and remediation 
of environmental damage (as defined in the Environmental Liability Directive) caused by offshore oil and gas operations carried out by or on behalf 
of the licensee or the operator. Member States must lay down rules on penalties applicable to infringements of the legislation adopted pursuant to 
this  Directive.  Member  States  were  required  to  bring  into  force  laws,  regulations  and  administrative  provisions  necessary  to  comply  with  this 
Directive by July 19, 2015. The Offshore Safety Directive has been implemented in the UK by a number of different UK Regulations, including the 
Environmental Damage (Prevention and Remediation) (England) Regulations 2015, as amended, (which revoked and replaced the Environmental 
Damage (Prevention and Remediation) Regulations 2015)) and the Offshore Installations (Offshore Safety Directive) (Safety Case etc.) Regulations 
2015, as amended, both of which entered into force on July 19, 2015.

In addition to the regulations imposed by the IMO and EU, countries having jurisdiction over North Sea areas impose regulatory requirements in 
connection with operations in those areas, including HSE in the United Kingdom and NPD in Norway. These regulatory requirements, together with 
additional  requirements  imposed  by  operators  in  North  Sea  oil  fields,  require  that  we  make  further  expenditures  for  sophisticated  equipment, 
reporting  and  redundancy  systems  on  FPSOs  and  for  the  training  of  seagoing  staff. Additional  regulations  and  requirements  may  be  adopted  or 
imposed that could limit our ability to do business or further increase the cost of doing business in the North Sea.

United States

The  United  States  has  enacted  an  extensive  regulatory  and  liability  regime  for  the  protection  and  clean-up  of  the  environment  from  oil  spills, 
including discharges of oil cargoes, bunker fuels or lubricants, primarily through the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (or OPA 90) and the Comprehensive 
Environmental  Response,  Compensation  and  Liability  Act  (or  CERCLA).  OPA  90  affects  all  owners,  bareboat  charterers,  and  operators  whose 
vessels  trade  to  the  United  States  or  its  territories  or  possessions  or  whose  vessels  operate  in  United  States  waters,  which  include  the  U.S. 
territorial sea and 200-mile exclusive economic zone around the United States. CERCLA applies to the discharge of “hazardous substances” rather 
than “oil” and imposes strict joint and several liability upon the owners, operators or bareboat charterers of vessels for clean-up costs and damages 
arising  from  discharges  of  hazardous  substances.  We  believe  that  petroleum  products,  LNG  and  LPG  should  not  be  considered  hazardous 
substances under CERCLA, but additives to oil or lubricants used on LNG or LPG carriers and other vessels might fall within its scope.

Under OPA 90, vessel owners, operators and bareboat charterers are “responsible parties” and are jointly, severally, and strictly liable (unless the oil 
spill  results  solely  from  the  act  or  omission  of  a  third  party,  an  act  of  God  or  an  act  of  war  and  the  responsible  party  reports  the  incident  and 
reasonably  cooperates  with  the  appropriate  authorities)  for  all  containment  and  clean-up  costs  and  other  damages  arising  from  discharges  or 
threatened discharges of oil from their vessels. These other damages are defined broadly to include: natural resources damages and the related 
assessment costs; real and personal property damages; net loss of taxes, royalties, rents, fees and other lost revenues; lost profits or impairment of 
earning capacity due to property or natural resources damage; net cost of public services necessitated by a spill response, such as protection from 
fire, safety or health hazards; and loss of subsistence use of natural resources.

38

OPA 90 limits the liability of responsible parties in an amount it periodically updates. The liability limits do not apply if the incident was proximately 
caused by violation of applicable U.S. federal safety, construction or operating regulations, including IMO conventions to which the United States is 
a signatory, or by the responsible party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, or if the responsible party fails or refuses to report the incident or to 
cooperate and assist in connection with the oil removal activities. Liability under CERCLA is also subject to limits unless the incident is caused by 
gross negligence, willful misconduct, or a violation of certain regulations. We currently maintain for each of our vessels pollution liability coverage in 
the maximum coverage amount of $1 billion per incident. A catastrophic spill could exceed the coverage available, which could harm our business, 
financial condition, and results of operations.

Under OPA 90, with limited exceptions, all newly built or converted tankers delivered after January 1, 1994 and operating in U.S. waters must be 
double-hulled. All our tankers and gas carriers are double-hulled.

OPA 90 also requires owners and operators of vessels to establish and maintain with the USCG evidence of financial responsibility in an amount at 
least equal to the relevant limitation amount for such vessels under the statute. The USCG has implemented regulations requiring that an owner or 
operator of a fleet of vessels must demonstrate evidence of financial responsibility in an amount sufficient to cover the vessel in the fleet having the 
greatest maximum limited liability under OPA 90 and CERCLA. Evidence of financial responsibility may be demonstrated by insurance, surety bond, 
self-insurance, guaranty or an alternate method subject to approval by the USCG. Under the self-insurance provisions, the ship owners or operators 
must have a net worth and working capital, measured in assets located in the United States against liabilities located anywhere in the world, that 
exceeds the applicable amount of financial responsibility. We have complied with the USCG regulations by using self-insurance for certain vessels 
and obtaining financial guaranties from a third party for the remaining vessels. If other vessels in our fleet trade into the United States in the future, 
we expect to obtain guaranties from third-party insurers.

OPA 90 and CERCLA permit individual U.S. states to impose their own liability regimes with regard to oil or hazardous substance pollution incidents 
occurring within their boundaries, and some states have enacted legislation providing for unlimited strict liability for spills. Several coastal states, 
such as California, Washington and Alaska require state-specific evidence of financial responsibility and vessel response plans. We comply with all 
applicable state regulations in the ports where our vessels call.

Owners  or  operators  of  vessels,  including  tankers  operating  in  U.S.  waters,  are  required  to  file  vessel  response  plans  with  the  USCG,  and  their 
tankers are required to operate in compliance with USCG approved plans. Such response plans must, among other things: address a “worst case” 
scenario and identify and ensure, through contract or other approved means, the availability of necessary private response resources to respond to 
a “worst case discharge”; describe crew training and drills; and identify a qualified individual with full authority to implement removal actions.

All  our  vessels  have  USCG  approved  vessel  response  plans.  In  addition,  we  conduct  regular  oil  spill  response  drills  in  accordance  with  the 
guidelines  set  out  in  OPA  90. The  USCG  has  announced  it  intends  to  propose  similar  regulations  requiring  certain  vessels  to  prepare  response 
plans for the release of hazardous substances. Similarly, we also have California Vessel Contingency Plans on board vessels which are likely to call 
ports in State of California.

OPA 90 and CERCLA do not preclude claimants from seeking damages resulting from the discharge of oil and hazardous substances under other 
applicable law, including maritime tort law. Such claims could include attempts to characterize the transportation of LNG or LPG aboard a vessel as 
an ultra-hazardous activity under a doctrine that would impose strict liability for damages resulting from that activity. The application of this doctrine 
varies by jurisdiction.

The  U.S.  Clean  Water Act  (or  the  Clean  Water  Act)  also  prohibits  the  discharge  of  oil  or  hazardous  substances  in  U.S.  navigable  waters  and 
imposes  strict  liability  in  the  form  of  penalties  for  unauthorized  discharges.  The  Clean  Water  Act  imposes  substantial  liability  for  the  costs  of 
removal, remediation and damages and complements the remedies available under OPA 90 and CERCLA discussed above.

Our vessels that discharge certain effluents, including ballast water, in U.S. waters must obtain a Clean Water Act permit from the Environmental 
Protection Agency (or EPA) titled the “Vessel General Permit” (or VGP) and comply with a range of effluent limitations, best management practices, 
reporting,  inspections  and  other  requirements.  The  Vessel  General  Permit  incorporated  USCG  requirements  for  ballast  water  exchange  and 
includes specific technology-based requirements for vessels, as well as an implementation schedule to require vessels to meet the ballast water 
effluent limitations by the first dry docking after January 1, 2016, depending on the vessel size. The Vessel Incidental Discharge Act (or VIDA) was 
signed into law on December 4, 2018 and establishes a new framework for the regulation of vessel incidental discharges under the CWA. VIDA 
requires the EPA to develop performance standards for approximately 30 discharges by December 2020 (similar to the discharges in the EPA 2013 
VGP). In most cases, the future standards will be at least as stringent as the existing EPA 2013 VGP requirements and will be technology-based. 
Two  years  thereafter,  the  USCG  is  required  to  develop  corresponding  implementation,  compliance,  and  enforcement  regulations.  These  may 
include requirements governing the design, construction, testing, approval, installation and use of devices to achieve the EPA national standards of 
performance  (or  NSPs).  Under  VIDA,  all  provisions  of  the  VGP  remain  in  force  and  effect  as  currently  written  until  the  USCG  regulations  are 
finalized. Vessels that are constructed after December 1, 2013 are subject to the ballast water numeric effluent limitations. Several U.S. states have 
added specific requirements to the Vessel General Permit and, in some cases, may require vessels to install ballast water treatment technology to 
meet  biological  performance  standards.  Every  five  years  the  Vessel  General  Permit  gets  reissued,  however  the  provisions  of  the  2013  VGP,  as 
currently  written,  will  apply  beyond  2018,  until  the  EPA  publishes  new  NSPs  and  the  USCG  develops  implementing  regulations  for  those  NSPs 
which could take up to four years.

Since January 1, 2014, the California Air Resources Board has required that vessels that burn fuel within 24 nautical miles of California burn fuel 
with 0.1% sulfur content or less.

39

China

China previously established ECAs in the Pearl River Delta, Yangtze River Delta and Bohai Sea, which took effect on January 1, 2016. The Hainan 
ECA took effect on January 1, 2019. From January 1, 2019, all the ECAs have merged, and the scope of Domestic Emission Controls Areas (or 
DECAs) were extended to 12 nautical miles from the coastline, covering the Chinese mainland territorial coastal areas as well as the Hainan Island 
territorial  coastal  waters.  From  January  1,  2019,  all  vessels  navigating  within  the  Chinese  mainland  territorial  coastal  DECAs  and  at  berths  are 
required to use marine fuel with sulfur content of maximum 0.50% m/m. As per the new regulation, ships can also use alternative methods such as 
an Exhaust Gas Scrubber, LNG or other clean fuel that reduces the SOx to the same level or lower than the maximum required limits of sulfur when 
using fossil fuel in the DECA areas or when at berth. All the vessels without an exhaust gas cleaning system entering the emission control area are 
only permitted to carry and use the compliant fuel oil specified by the new regulation.

From July 1, 2019, vessels engaged on international voyages (except tankers) that are equipped to connect to shore power must use shore power 
if they berth for more than three hours (or for more than two hours for inland river control area) in berths with shore supply capacity in the coastal 
control areas.

From January 1, 2020, all vessels navigating within the Chinese mainland territorial coastal DECAs should use marine fuel with a maximum 0.5% 
m/m sulfur cap. All the vessels entering China inland waterway emission control area are to use the fuel oil with sulfur content not exceeding 0.1% 
m/m. Any vessel using or carrying non-compliant fuel oil due to the non-availability of compliant fuel oil is to submit a fuel oil non-availability report 
to the China Maritime Safety Administration (or CMSA) of the next arrival port before entering waters under the jurisdiction of China.

From  March  1,  2020,  all  vessels  entering  waters  under  the  jurisdiction  of  the  People’s  Republic  of  China  are  prohibited  to  carry  fuel  oil  of  sulfur 
content exceeding 0.50% m/m on board ships. Any vessel carrying non-compliant fuel oil in the waters under the jurisdiction of China is to:

•

•

discharge the non-compliant fuel oil; or

as permitted by the CMSA of calling port, to retain the non-compliant fuel oil on board with a commitment letter stating it will not be used in
waters under the jurisdiction of China.

New Zealand

New Zealand's Craft Risk Management Standard (or CRMS) requirements are based on the IMO's guidelines for the control and management of 
ships' biofouling to minimize the transfer of invasive aquatic species.

Marine  pests  and  diseases  brought  in  on  vessel  hulls  (or  biofouling)  are  a  threat  to  New  Zealand's  marine  resources.  From  May  15,  2018,  all 
vessels  arriving  in  New  Zealand  will  need  to  have  a  clean  hull.  Vessels  staying  up  to  20  days  and  only  visiting  designated  ports  (places  of  first 
arrival) will be allowed a slight amount of biofouling. Vessels staying longer and visiting other places will only be allowed a slime layer and goose 
barnacles.

Republic of Korea

The  Korean  Ministry  of  Oceans  and  Fisheries  announced  an  air  quality  control  program  that  defines  selected  South  Korean  ports  and  areas  as 
ECAs. The ECAs cover Korea’s five major port areas: Incheon, Pyeongtaek & Dangjin, Yeosu & Gwangyang, Busan and Ulsan. From September 1, 
2020, ships at berth or at anchor in the new Korean ECAs must burn fuel with a maximum sulfur content of 0.10%. Ships must switch to compliant 
fuel  within  one  hour  of  mooring/anchoring  and  burn  compliant  fuel  until  not  more  than  one  hour  before  departure.  From  January  1,  2022,  the 
requirements will be expanded, and the 0.10% sulfur limit will apply at all times while operating within the ECAs. 

A Vessel Speed Reduction Program has also been introduced as a part of an air quality control program on voluntary compliance basis to certain 
types of ships (Crude, Chemical and LNG carriers) calling at ports Busan, Ulsan, Yeosu, Gwangyang and Incheon.

India

On October 2, 2019, the Government of India urged its citizens and government agencies to take steps towards phasing out single-use plastics (or 
SUP). As  a  result,  all  shipping  participants  operating  in  Indian  waters  are  required  to  contribute  to  the  Indian  government’s  goal  of  phasing  out 
SUPs. 

The Directorate General of Shipping, India (or DGS) has mandated certain policies as a result, and in order to comply with these required policies, 
all cargo vessels are required as of January 31, 2020 to prepare a vessel-specific Ship Execution Plan (or SEP) detailing the inventory of all SUP 
used on board the vessel and which has not been exempted by DGS. This SEP will be reviewed to determine the prohibition of SUP on the subject 
vessel.

Vessels will be allowed to use an additional 10% of SUP items in the SEP that have not been prohibited. Amendments to the finalized SEP are 
discouraged save for material corrections.

Foreign vessels visiting Indian ports are not allowed to use prohibited items while at a place or port in India. However, these items are allowed to be 
on board provided they are stored at identified locations. SEPs are also required to detail the prevention steps that will be implemented during a 
vessel’s  call  at  an  Indian  port  to  prevent  unsanctioned  usage  of  SUPs.  This  includes  the  preparation  and  use  of  a  deck  and  official  log  entry 
identifying all SUP items on board the vessel.

Greenhouse Gas Regulation

In February 2005, the Kyoto Protocol to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (or the Kyoto Protocol) took effect. Pursuant 
to  the  Kyoto  Protocol,  adopting  countries  are  required  to  implement  national  programs  to  reduce  emissions  of  greenhouse  gases.  In  December 
2009,  more  than  27  nations,  including  the  United  States,  entered  into  the  Copenhagen Accord.  The  Copenhagen Accord  is  non-binding  but  is 
intended to pave the way for a comprehensive, international treaty on climate change. In December 2015, the Paris Agreement was adopted by a 
large number of countries at the 21st Session of the Conference of Parties (commonly known as COP 21, a conference of the countries which are 
parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change; the COP is the highest decision-making authority of this organization). 
The Paris Agreement, which entered into force on November 4, 2016, deals with greenhouse gas emission reduction measures and targets from 
2020  in  order  to  limit  the  global  temperature  increases  to  well  below  2˚  Celsius  above  pre-industrial  levels. Although  shipping  was  ultimately  not 
included  in  the  Paris Agreement,  it  is  expected  that  the  adoption  of  the  Paris Agreement  may  lead  to  regulatory  changes  in  relation  to  curbing 
greenhouse gas emissions from shipping.

In July 2011, the IMO adopted regulations imposing technical and operational measures for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. These new 
regulations formed a new chapter in MARPOL Annex VI and became effective on January 1, 2013. The new technical and operational measures 
include  the  “Energy  Efficiency  Design  Index”  (or  the  EEDI),  which  is  mandatory  for  newbuilding  vessels,  and  the  “Ship  Energy  Efficiency 
Management Plan,” which is mandatory for all vessels. In October 2016, the IMO’s Marine Environment Protection Committee (or MEPC) adopted 
updated guidelines for the calculation of the EEDI. In October 2014, the IMO’s MEPC agreed in principle to develop a system  of data collection 
regarding fuel consumption of ships. In October 2016, the IMO adopted a mandatory data collection system under which vessels of 5,000 gross 
tonnages and above are to collect fuel consumption and other data and to report the aggregated data so collected to their flag state at the end of 
each calendar year. The new requirements entered into force on March 1, 2018. 

All  vessels  are  required  to  submit  fuel  consumption  data  to  their  respective  administration/registered  organizations  for  onward  submission  to  the 
IMO for analysis and to help with decision making on future measures. The amendments require operators to update the vessel's SEEMP to include 
descriptions of the ship-specific methodology that will be used for collecting and measuring data for fuel oil consumption, distance travelled, hours 
underway and processes that will be used to report the data to the Administration, in order to ensure data quality is maintained. 

All of our vessels were verified as being compliant before December 31, 2018, with the first data collection period being for the 2019 calendar year. 
A  Confirmation  of  Compliance  was  issued  by  the  administration/registered  organization,  which  must  be  kept  on  board  the  ship.  The  IMO  also 
approved a roadmap for the development of a comprehensive IMO strategy on the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions from ships with an initial 
strategy  adopted  on April  13,  2018  and  a  revised  strategy  to  be  adopted  in  2023.  Further,  the  MEPC  adopted  two  other  sets  of  amendments  to 
MARPOL Annex VI related to carbon intensity regulations. The MEPC agreed on combining the technical and operational measures with an entry 
into  force  date  on  January  1,  2023.  The  Energy  Efficiency  Existing  Ships  Index  (or  EEXI)  will  be  implemented  for  existing  ships  as  a  technical 
measure  to  reduce  CO2  emissions.  The  Carbon  Intensity  Index  (or  CII)  will  be  implemented  as  an  operational  carbon  intensity  measure  to 
benchmark and improve efficiency. Regulations and frameworks are expected to be fully defined at the next MEPC meeting in June 2021.

The EU has also indicated that it intends to propose an expansion of an existing EU emissions trading regime to include emissions of greenhouse 
gases from vessels, and individual countries in the EU may impose additional requirements. The EU has adopted Regulation (EU) 2015/757 on the 
monitoring, reporting and verification (or MRV) of CO2 emissions from vessels (or the MRV Regulation), which entered into force on July 1, 2015. 
The MRV Regulation aims to quantify and reduce CO2 emissions from shipping. It lists the requirements on the MRV of carbon dioxide emissions 
and requires ship owners and operators to annually monitor, report and verify CO2 emissions for vessels larger than 5,000 gross tonnage calling at 
any EU and EFTA (Norway and Iceland) port (with a few exceptions, such as fish-catching or fish-processing vessels). Data collection takes place 
on  a  per  voyage  basis  and  started  on  January  1,  2018.  The  reported  CO2  emissions,  together  with  additional  data,  such  as  cargo  and  energy 
efficiency parameters, are to be verified by independent verifiers and sent to a central inspection database hosted by the European Maritime Safety 
Agency to collate all the data applicable to the EU region. Companies responsible for the operation of large ships using EU ports are required to 
report their CO2 emissions. While the EU was considering a proposal for the inclusion of shipping in the EU Emissions Trading System as from 
2021 (in the absence of a comparable system operating under the IMO), it appears that the decision to include shipping may be deferred until 2023.

In  the  United  States,  the  EPA  issued  an  “endangerment  finding”  regarding  greenhouse  gases  under  the  Clean Air Act.  While  this  finding  in  itself 
does  not  impose  any  requirements  on  our  industry,  it  authorizes  the  EPA  to  regulate  GHG  emissions  directly  through  a  rule-making  process.  In 
addition, climate change initiatives are being considered in the United States Congress and by individual states. Any passage of new climate control 
legislation or other regulatory initiatives by the IMO, EU, the United States or other countries or states where we operate that restrict emissions of 
greenhouse gases could have a significant financial and operational impact on our business that we cannot predict with certainty at this time.

Many financial institutions that lend to the maritime industry have adopted the Poseidon Principles, which establish a framework for assessing and 
disclosing the climate alignment of ship finance portfolios. The Poseidon Principles set a benchmark for the banks who fund for the maritime sector, 
which  is  based  on  the  IMO  GHG  strategy.  The  IMO  approved  an  initial  GHG  strategy  in April  2018  to  reduce  GHG  emissions  generated  from 
shipping  activity,  which  represents  a  significant  shift  in  climate  ambition  for  a  sector  that  currently  accounts  for  2%-3%  of  global  carbon  dioxide 
emissions. As  a  result,  the  Poseidon  Principles  are  expected  to  enable  financial  institutions  to  align  their  ship  finance  portfolios  with  responsible 
environmental behavior and incentivize international shipping's decarbonization.

Vessel Security

The ISPS was adopted by the IMO in December 2002 in the wake of heightened concern over worldwide terrorism and became effective on July 1, 
2004. The objective of ISPS is to enhance maritime security by detecting security threats to ships and ports and by requiring the development of 
security  plans  and  other  measures  designed  to  prevent  such  threats.  Each  of  the  existing  vessels  in  our  fleet  currently  complies  with  the 
requirements of ISPS and Maritime Transportation Security Act of 2002 (U.S. specific requirements). Procedures are in place to inform the relevant 
reporting regimes such as Maritime Security Council Horn of Africa, the Maritime Domain Awareness for Trade - Gulf of Guinea, the Information 
Fusion Center whenever our vessels are calling in the Indian Ocean Region, or West Coast of Africa or Southeast Asia high-risk areas respectively. 
In order to mitigate the security risk, security arrangements are required for vessels which travel through these high-risk areas.

C. Organizational Structure

Our organizational structure includes, among others, our interests in Teekay LNG and Teekay Tankers, which are our publicly-traded subsidiaries.

The following chart provides an overview of our organizational structure as at March 1, 2021. Please read Exhibit 8.1 to this Annual Report for a list
of our subsidiaries as at March 1, 2021.

(1)

(2)

Teekay LNG is controlled by its general partner. Teekay Corporation indirectly owns a 100% beneficial ownership in the general partner. However, in certain limited
cases, approval of a majority of the unitholders of Teekay LNG is required to approve certain actions.

Teekay Tankers has two classes of shares: Class A common stock and Class B common stock. Teekay Corporation indirectly owns 100% of the Class B shares 
which have up to five votes each but aggregate voting power capped at 49%. As a result of Teekay Corporation’s ownership of Class A and Class B shares, it holds
aggregate voting power of 53.9% as of March 1, 2021.

(3) We are entitled to distributions on our general and limited partner interests in Teekay LNG. Prior to the elimination of Teekay LNG’s incentive distribution rights in 
May  2020,  the  general  partner  of Teekay  LNG  was  also  entitled  to  distributions  payable  with  respect  to  incentive  distribution  rights.  Incentive  distribution  rights 
represent the right to receive an increasing percentage of quarterly distributions of available cash from operating surplus after the minimum quarterly distribution
and the target distribution levels have been achieved.

Teekay LNG is a Marshall Islands limited partnership formed by us in 2004 as part of our strategy to expand our operations in the LNG and LPG 
shipping  sectors.  Teekay  LNG  provides  LNG  and  LPG  marine  transportation  services,  primarily  under  long-term,  fixed-rate  contracts  with  major 
energy and utility companies. As of December 31, 2020, Teekay LNG’s fleet, including its equity investees, included 47 LNG carriers and 30 LPG/
multi-gas carriers. Teekay LNG’s ownership interests in these vessels range from 20% to 100%. Teekay LNG also has a 30% interest in an LNG 
receiving and regasification terminal in Bahrain.

In  December  2007,  we  added  Teekay  Tankers  to  our  structure.  Teekay  Tankers  is  a  Marshall  Islands  corporation  formed  by  us  to  own  our 
conventional tanker business. As of December 31, 2020, Teekay Tankers’ fleet included 19 double-hull Aframax tankers (including two chartered-in 
vessels), 26 double-hull Suezmax tankers, ten product tankers (including one chartered-in vessel), and one VLCC, all of which trade either in the 
spot  tanker  market  or  under  short-  or  medium-term,  fixed-rate  time-charter  contracts.  Teekay  Tankers  owns  100%  of  its  fleet,  other  than  a  50% 
interest  in  the  VLCC  and  the  in-chartered  vessels.  Prior  to  October  1,  2018,  we  provided  Teekay  Tankers  with  certain  commercial,  technical, 
administrative, and strategic services under a long-term management agreement through a wholly-owned subsidiary. As of October 1, 2018, Teekay 
Tankers  elected  to  receive  commercial  and  technical  management  services  directly  from  its  wholly-owned  subsidiaries,  who  receive  various 
services from us and our affiliates.

We entered into an omnibus agreement with Teekay LNG, Altera and related parties governing, among other things, when we, Teekay LNG, and 
Altera may compete with each other and certain rights of first offer on LNG carriers, oil tankers, shuttle tankers, FSO units and FPSO units.

Teekay  Parent  owns  three  FPSO  units,  in  addition  to  its  interests  in  its  subsidiaries.  For  additional  information  about  Teekay  LNG  and  Teekay 
Tankers please read "Item 4B – Information on the Company – Operations".

D. Property, Plant and Equipment

Other than our vessels, and Teekay LNG’s 30% interest, through the Bahrain LNG Joint Venture, in an LNG receiving and regasification terminal,
we  do  not  have  any  material  property.  Please  read  “Item  18  –  Financial  Statements:  Note  8  –  Long-Term  Debt  for  information  about  major
encumbrances against our vessels.

E.

Taxation of the Company

42

United States Taxation

The following is a discussion of material U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to us. This discussion is based upon provisions of the 
Code, legislative history, applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations (or Treasury Regulations), judicial authority and administrative interpretations, all as 
in  effect  on  the  date  of  this  Annual  Report,  and  which  are  subject  to  change,  possibly  with  retroactive  effect,  or  are  subject  to  different 
interpretations. Changes in these authorities may cause the tax consequences to vary substantially from the consequences described below.

Taxation of Operating Income. A significant portion of our gross income will be attributable to the transportation of crude oil and related products. 
For this purpose, gross income attributable to transportation (or Transportation Income) includes income derived from, or in connection with, the 
use (or hiring or leasing for use) of a vessel to transport cargo, or the performance of services directly related to the use of any vessel to transport 
cargo, and thus includes income from time charters, contracts of affreightment, bareboat charters, and voyage charters.

Fifty percent (50%) of Transportation Income that either begins or ends, but that does not both begin and end, in the United States (or U.S. Source 
International  Transportation  Gross  Income)  is  considered  to  be  derived  from  sources  within  the  United  States.  Transportation  Income  that  both 
begins  and  ends  in  the  United  States  (or  U.S.  Source  Domestic  Transportation  Gross  Income)  is  considered  to  be  100%  derived  from  sources 
within the United States. Transportation Income exclusively between non-U.S. destinations is considered to be 100% derived from sources outside 
the United States. Transportation Income derived from sources outside the United States generally is not subject to U.S. federal income tax.

Based on our current operations, and the operations of our subsidiaries, a substantial portion of our Transportation Income is from sources outside 
the  United  States  and  not  subject  to  U.S.  federal  income  tax.  Unless  the  exemption  from  U.S.  taxation  under  Section  883  of  the  Code  (or  the 
Section  883  Exemption)  applies,  our  U.S.  Source  International Transportation  Gross  Income  generally  is  subject  to  U.S.  federal  income  taxation 
under  either  the  net  basis  and  branch  profits  taxes  or  the  4%  gross  basis  tax,  each  of  which  is  discussed  below.  Furthermore,  certain  of  our 
subsidiaries  engaged  in  activities  which  could  give  rise  to  U.S.  Source  International Transportation  Gross  Income  rely  on  our  ability  to  claim  the 
Section 883 Exemption.

The Section 883 Exemption. In general, the Section 883 Exemption provides that if a non-U.S. corporation satisfies the requirements of Section 883 
of  the  Code  and  the Treasury  Regulations  thereunder  (or  the  Section  883  Regulations),  it  will  not  be  subject  to  the  net  basis  and  branch  profits 
taxes or the 4% gross basis tax described below on its U.S. Source International Transportation Gross Income. As discussed below, we believe the 
Section  883  Exemption  will  apply  and  we  will  not  be  taxed  on  our  U.S.  Source  International  Transportation  Gross  Income.  The  Section  883 
Exemption does not apply to U.S. Source Domestic Transportation Gross Income.

A non-U.S. corporation will qualify for the Section 883 Exemption if, among other things, it (i) is organized in a jurisdiction outside the United States 
that grants an exemption from tax to U.S. corporations on international Transportation Gross Income (or an Equivalent Exemption), (ii) meets one of 
three  ownership  tests  (or  Ownership  Tests)  described  in  the  Section  883  Regulations,  and  (iii)  meets  certain  substantiation,  reporting  and  other 
requirements (or the Substantiation Requirements).

We  are  organized  under  the  laws  of  the  Republic  of  the  Marshall  Islands.  The  U.S.  Treasury  Department  has  recognized  the  Republic  of  the 
Marshall  Islands  as  a  jurisdiction  that  grants  an  Equivalent  Exemption.  We  also  believe  that  we  will  be  able  to  satisfy  the  Substantiation 
Requirements  necessary  to  qualify  for  the  Section  883  Exemption.  Consequently,  our  U.S.  Source  International  Transportation  Gross  Income 
(including for this purpose, our share of any such income earned by our subsidiaries that have properly elected to be treated as partnerships or 
disregarded as entities separate from us for U.S. federal income tax purposes) will be exempt from U.S. federal income taxation provided we satisfy 
one of the Ownership Tests. We believe that we should satisfy one of the Ownership Tests because our stock is primarily and regularly traded on an 
established securities market in the United States within the meaning of Section 883 of the Code and the Section 883 Regulations. We can give no 
assurance, however, that changes in the ownership of our stock subsequent to the date of this report will permit us to continue to qualify for the 
Section 883 exemption.

Net Basis Tax and Branch Profits Tax. If the Section 883 Exemption does not apply, our U.S. Source International Transportation Gross Income 
may be treated as effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States (or Effectively Connected Income) if we have a 
fixed  place  of  business  in  the  United  States  and  substantially  all  of  our  U.S.  Source  International Transportation  Gross  Income  is  attributable  to 
regularly scheduled transportation or, in the case of income derived from bareboat charters, is attributable to a fixed place of business in the United 
States. Based on our current operations, none of our potential U.S. Source International Transportation Gross Income is attributable to regularly 
scheduled transportation or is derived from bareboat charters attributable to a fixed place of business in the United States. As a result, we do not 
anticipate that any of our U.S. Source International Transportation Gross Income will be treated as Effectively Connected Income. However, there is 
no  assurance  that  we  will  not  earn  income  pursuant  to  regularly  scheduled  transportation  or  bareboat  charters  attributable  to  a  fixed  place  of 
business in the United States in the future, which will result in such income being treated as Effectively Connected Income. U.S. Source Domestic 
Transportation Gross Income generally will be treated as Effectively Connected Income. 

Any income we earn that is treated as Effectively Connected Income would be subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax (the current statutory 
rate is 21%) and a 30% branch profits tax imposed under Section 884 of the Code. In addition, a branch interest tax could be imposed on certain 
interest paid, or deemed paid, by us.

On the sale of a vessel that has produced Effectively Connected Income, we generally would be subject to the net basis and branch profits taxes 
with  respect  to  our  gain  recognized  up  to  the  amount  of  certain  prior  deductions  for  depreciation  that  reduced  Effectively  Connected  Income. 
Otherwise, we would not be subject to U.S. federal income tax with respect to gain realized on the sale of a vessel, provided the sale is considered 
to occur outside of the United States under U.S. federal income tax principles.

The 4% Gross Basis Tax. If the Section 883 Exemption does not apply and we are not subject to the net basis and branch profits taxes described 
above,  we  will  be  subject  to  a  4%  U.S.  federal  income  tax  on  our  subsidiaries'  U.S.  Source  International  Transportation  Gross  Income,  without 
benefit of deductions. For 2020, we estimate that, if the Section 883 Exemption and the net basis tax did not apply, the U.S. federal income tax on 
such U.S. Source International Transportation Gross Income would have been approximately $9.1 million. In addition, we estimate that certain of 

43

our subsidiaries that are unable to claim the Section 883 Exemption were subject to approximately $2.0 million in U.S. federal income tax on the 
U.S.  source  portion  of  their  U.S.  Source  International  Transportation  Gross  Income  for  2020.  If  the  Section  883  Exemption  does  not  apply,  the 
amount of such tax for which we or our subsidiaries may be liable in any year will depend upon the amount of income we earn from voyages into or 
out of the United States in such year, however, which is not within our complete control.

Marshall Islands Taxation

We  believe  that  neither  we  nor  our  subsidiaries  will  be  subject  to  taxation  under  the  laws  of  the  Marshall  Islands,  nor  that  distributions  by  our 
subsidiaries to us will be subject to any taxes under the laws of the Marshall Islands, other than taxes, fines, or fees due to (i) the incorporation, 
dissolution, continued existence, merger, domestication (or similar concepts) of legal entities registered in the Republic of the Marshall Islands, (ii) 
filing certificates (such as certificates of incumbency, merger, or re-domiciliation) with the Marshall Islands registrar, (iii) obtaining certificates of good 
standing from, or certified copies of documents filed with, the Marshall Islands registrar, (iv) compliance with Marshall Islands law concerning vessel 
ownership,  such  as  tonnage  tax,  or  (v)  non-compliance  with  economic  substance  regulations  or  with  requests  made  by  the  Marshall  Islands 
Registrar of Corporations relating to our books and records and the books and records of our subsidiaries.

Other Taxation

We and our subsidiaries are subject to taxation in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions because we or our subsidiaries are either organized, or conduct 
business or operations in such jurisdictions. In other non-U.S. jurisdictions, we and our subsidiaries rely on statutory exemptions from tax. However, 
we  cannot  assure  that  any  statutory  exemptions  from  tax  on  which  we  or  our  subsidiaries  rely  will  continue  to  be  available  as  tax  laws  in  those 
jurisdictions may change or we or our subsidiaries may enter into new business transactions relating to such jurisdictions, which could affect our 
and our subsidiaries' tax liability. Please read “Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 21 – Income Taxes."

Item 4A. Unresolved Staff Comments

None.

Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects

The  following  discussion  should  be  read  in  conjunction  with  the  consolidated  financial  statements  and  notes  thereto  appearing  elsewhere  in  this 
report.  In  addition,  refer  to  Item  5  in  our  Annual  Report  on  Form  20-F  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2019  for  our  discussion  and  analysis 
comparing financial condition and results of operations from 2019 to 2018.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

Teekay Corporation (or Teekay) is an operational leader and project developer in the marine midstream space. Teekay provides a comprehensive 
set  of  marine  services  to  the  world's  leading  oil  and  gas  companies.  We  have  a  100%  general  partnership  interest  in  one  publicly-listed  master 
limited partnership, Teekay LNG Partners L.P. (or Teekay LNG), a controlling interest in publicly-listed Teekay Tankers Ltd. (or Teekay Tankers, and 
together with Teekay LNG, the Daughter Entities), and we directly own three floating production storage and offloading (or FPSO) units. Until May 
2019, when we sold our remaining interest, we had a 49% general partnership interest and other equity and debt interests in another publicly-listed 
master limited partnership, Altera Infrastructure L.P., (or Altera) previously known as Teekay Offshore Partners L.P. (or Teekay Offshore). Teekay 
and its subsidiaries, other than Teekay LNG and Teekay Tankers, are referred to herein as Teekay Parent. 

Structure

To  understand  our  financial  condition  and  results  of  operations,  a  general  understanding  of  our  organizational  structure  is  required.  Our 
organizational structure can be divided into (a) our controlling interests in the Daughter entities and (b) Teekay Parent. Since we control the voting 
interests of the Daughter Entities through our ownership of the sole general partner interest of Teekay LNG and of Class A and Class B common 
shares of Teekay Tankers, we consolidate the results of these subsidiaries. 

As of December 31, 2020, we had economic interests in Teekay LNG and Teekay Tankers of 42.4% and 28.6%, respectively. Please read “Item 4C 
– Information on the Company – Organizational Structure.”

Teekay  LNG  primarily  holds  assets  that  generate  long-term  fixed-rate  cash  flows.  The  strategic  rationale  for  establishing  this  master  limited 
partnership in 2004 was to illuminate the higher value of fixed-rate cash flows to Teekay investors, realize advantages of a lower cost of equity when 
investing in new liquefied natural gas (or LNG) projects, enhance returns to Teekay through fee-based revenue and ownership of the partnership's 
incentive distribution rights (which Teekay LNG repurchased from us in May 2020) and increase our access to capital for growth. In 2007, as part of 
our continued asset management strategy, we formed Teekay Tankers to expand our conventional oil tanker business. Teekay Tankers holds all of 
our conventional tanker assets and engages in a mix of short to medium term fixed-rate charter contracts and spot tanker market trading. Teekay 
Tankers  also  owns  a  ship-to-ship  transfer  business  that  performs  full  service  lightering  and  lightering  support  operations  in  the  U.S.  Gulf  and 
Caribbean.  In  addition  to  Teekay  Parent’s  investments  in  Teekay  LNG  and  Teekay  Tankers,  Teekay  Parent  continues  to  own  three  FPSO  units, 
conducts business in Australia through the provision of operational and maintenance marine services, and provides marine and corporate services 
to Teekay LNG (and certain of its joint ventures) and to Teekay Tankers. 

44

Our long-term vision is for Teekay Parent to be primarily a portfolio manager and project developer of various fixed assets and businesses within 
our area of expertise. Our primary financial objectives for Teekay Parent are to increase the value of our investments in our assets, increase Teekay 
Parent’s free cash flow per share, continue to reduce the debt of Teekay Parent (including by potentially selling assets in the future and using the 
net proceeds to repay debt), and, as a service provider to its Daughter Entities and third parties, provide scale and other benefits across the Teekay 
Group. 

Teekay previously entered into an omnibus agreement with Teekay LNG, Altera and related parties governing, among other things, when Teekay, 
Teekay LNG and Altera may compete with each other and certain rights of first offer on LNG carriers, oil tankers, shuttle tankers, floating storage 
and offtake (or FSO) units and FPSO units. 

We  have  three  primary  lines  of  business:  liquefied  gas  carriers,  conventional  tankers  and  offshore  production  (FPSO  units).  We  manage  these 
businesses  for  the  benefit  of  all  stakeholders.  We  allocate  capital  and  assess  performance  from  the  separate  perspectives  of  Teekay  LNG  and 
Teekay Tankers, and Teekay Parent, as well as from the perspective of the lines of business (the Line of Business approach). The primary focus of 
our  organizational  structure,  internal  reporting  and  allocation  of  resources  by  the  chief  operating  decision  maker,  is  on Teekay  LNG  and Teekay 
Tankers,  and  Teekay  Parent  (the  Legal  Entity  approach). As  a  result,  a  substantial  majority  of  the  information  provided  in  this Annual  Report  is 
presented in accordance with the Legal Entity approach. However, we have continued to incorporate the Line of Business approach in our financial 
reporting because in certain cases there is more than one line of business in each of Teekay LNG, Teekay Tankers and Teekay Parent,  and we 
believe this information allows a better understanding of our performance and prospects for future net cash flows. We presented our investment in 
Altera as a separate operating segment until its sale to Brookfield in May 2019.

IMPORTANT FINANCIAL AND OPERATIONAL TERMS AND CONCEPTS

We use a variety of financial and operational terms and concepts when analyzing our performance. These include the following:

Revenues.  Revenues  primarily  include  revenues  from  voyage  charters,  time  charters  accounted  for  under  operating,  direct  financing  and  sales-
type leases, and FPSO contracts. Revenues are affected by hire rates and the number of days a vessel operates, and previously also  the daily 
production volume and/or the oil price for certain FPSO units. Revenues are also affected by the mix of business between time charters and voyage 
charters and to a lesser extent whether our vessels are subject to an RSA. Hire rates for voyage charters are more volatile, as they are typically tied 
to prevailing market rates at the time of a voyage.

Voyage Expenses. Voyage expenses are all expenses unique to a particular voyage, including any fuel expenses, port fees, cargo loading and 
unloading expenses, canal tolls, agency fees and commissions. Voyage expenses are typically paid by the customer under time charters and FPSO 
contracts and by us under voyage charters.

Vessel Operating Expenses. Under all types of charters and contracts for our vessels, except for bareboat charters, we are responsible for vessel 
operating expenses, which include crewing, repairs and maintenance, insurance, stores, lube oils and communication expenses. The two largest 
components of our vessel operating expenses are crew costs and repairs and maintenance. We expect these expenses to increase as our fleet 
matures  and  to  the  extent  that  it  expands.  We  are  taking  steps  to  maintain  these  expenses  at  a  stable  level  but  expect  an  increase  in  line  with 
inflation in respect of crew, material, and maintenance costs. The strengthening or weakening of the U.S. Dollar relative to foreign currencies may 
result in significant decreases or increases, respectively, in our vessel operating expenses, depending on the currencies in which such expenses 
are incurred.

Income from Vessel Operations. To assist us in evaluating our operations by segment, we analyze our income from vessel operations for each 
segment,  which  represents  the  income  we  receive  from  the  segment  after  deducting  operating  expenses,  but  prior  to  the  deduction  of  interest 
expense, realized and unrealized gains (losses) on non-designated derivative instruments, income taxes, foreign currency and other income and 
losses.

Dry  docking.  We  must  periodically  dry  dock  each  of  our  vessels  for  inspection,  repairs  and  maintenance  and  any  modifications  to  comply  with 
industry certification or governmental requirements. Generally, we dry dock each of our vessels every two and a half to five years, depending upon 
the  type  of  vessel  and  its  age.  In  addition,  a  shipping  society  classification  intermediate  survey  is  performed  on  our  LNG  carriers  between  the 
second and third year of the five-year dry-docking cycle. We capitalize a substantial portion of the costs incurred during dry docking and for the 
survey and amortize those costs on a straight-line basis from the completion of a dry docking or intermediate survey over the estimated useful life of 
the dry dock. We expense as incurred costs for routine repairs and maintenance performed during dry dockings that do not improve or extend the 
useful  lives  of  the  assets  and  annual  class  survey  costs  for  our  FPSO  units. The  number  of  dry  dockings  undertaken  in  a  given  period  and  the 
nature of the work performed determine the level of dry-docking expenditures.

Depreciation and Amortization. Our depreciation and amortization expense typically consists of:

•

•

•

charges  related  to  the  depreciation  and  amortization  of  the  historical  cost  of  our  fleet  (less  an  estimated  residual  value)  over  the  estimated
useful lives of our vessels;

charges related to the amortization of dry-docking expenditures over the useful life of the dry dock; and

charges related to the amortization of intangible assets, including the fair value of time charters and customer relationships where amounts
have been attributed to those items in acquisitions; these amounts are amortized over the period in which the asset is expected to contribute to
our future cash flows.

Time-Charter  Equivalent  (TCE)  Rates.  Bulk  shipping  industry  freight  rates  are  commonly  measured  in  the  shipping  industry  in  terms  of  “time-
charter equivalent” (or TCE) rates, which represent revenues less voyage expenses divided by revenue days.

45

Revenue Days. Revenue days are the total number of calendar days our vessels were in our possession during a period, less the total number of 
off-hire  days  during  the  period  associated  with  major  repairs,  dry  dockings  or  special  or  intermediate  surveys.  Consequently,  revenue  days 
represent the total number of days available for the vessel to earn revenue. Idle days, which are days when the vessel is available for the vessel to 
earn revenue, yet is not employed, are included in revenue days. We use revenue days to explain changes in our revenues between periods.

Calendar-Ship-Days. Calendar-ship-days are equal to the total number of calendar days that our vessels were in our possession during a period. 
As a result, we use calendar-ship-days primarily in explaining changes in vessel operating expenses, time-charter hire expense and depreciation 
and amortization.

ITEMS YOU SHOULD CONSIDER WHEN EVALUATING OUR RESULTS

You should consider the following factors when evaluating our historical financial performance and assessing our future prospects:

•

•

•

Our  voyage  revenues  are  affected  by  cyclicality  in  the  tanker  markets.  The  cyclical  nature  of  the  tanker  industry  causes  significant
increases or decreases in the revenue we earn from our vessels, particularly those we trade in the spot market.

Tanker  rates  also  fluctuate  based  on  seasonal  variations  in  demand.  Tanker  markets  are  typically  stronger  in  the  winter  months  as  a
result of increased oil consumption in the northern hemisphere but weaker in the summer months as a result of lower oil consumption in the
northern hemisphere and increased refinery maintenance. In addition, unpredictable weather patterns during the winter months tend to disrupt
vessel  scheduling,  which  historically  has  increased  oil  price  volatility  and  oil  trading  activities  in  the  winter  months.  As  a  result,  revenues
generated by our vessels have historically been weaker during the quarters ended June 30 and September 30, and stronger in the quarters
ended December 31 and March 31. However, there may be years where other events override typical seasonality. This was the case in 2020
when high global oil production and a rise in floating storage led to strong tanker rates in the first and second quarters of the year before giving
way to much weaker rates in the third and fourth quarters due to lower oil demand as a result of COVID-19, a significant reduction in global oil
supply, and the return of ships from floating storage.

The  COVID-19  pandemic  is  dynamic,  and  its  ultimate  scope,  duration  and  effects  on  us,  our  customers  and  suppliers  and  our
industry are uncertain.

Although global demand for LNG has remain relatively stable, COVID-19 has resulted and may continue to result in a significant decline in
global  demand  for  LPG  and  crude  oil.  As  our  business  includes  the  transportation  of  LNG,  LPG  and  oil  on  behalf  of  our  customers,  any
significant decrease in demand for the cargo we transport could adversely affect demand for our vessels and services.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, we did not experience any material business interruptions as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
COVID-19 has been a contributing factor to the decline in spot tanker rates and short-term time charter rates since mid-May 2020 and has also
increased certain crewing-related costs, which reduced our cash flows, and was a contributing factor to the non-cash write-down of certain of
Teekay  LNG's  multi-gas  vessels,  certain  tankers  owned  by  Teekay  Tankers  and  one  FPSO  unit,  as  described  in  "Item  18  –  Financial
Statements: Note 18 - Write-down and Loss on Sale." The pandemic was also a contributing factor to the reduction in certain tax accruals as
described  in  "Item  18  –  Financial  Statements:  Note  21  -  Income  Tax  Expense".  We  are  continuing  to  monitor  the  potential  impact  of  the
pandemic  on  us,  including  monitoring  counterparty  risk  associated  with  our  vessels  under  contract  and  monitoring  the  impact  on  potential
vessel impairments. We have also introduced a number of measures to protect the health and safety of our crews on our vessels, as well as
our onshore staff.

Effects of the current pandemic may include, among others: deterioration of worldwide, regional or national economic conditions and activity
and  of  demand  for  LNG,  LPG  and  oil;  operational  disruptions  to  us  or  our  customers  due  to  worker  health  risks  and  the  effects  of  new
regulations,  directives  or  practices  implemented  in  response  to  the  pandemic  (such  as  travel  restrictions  for  individuals  and  vessels  and
quarantining  and  physical  distancing);  potential  delays  in  (a)  the  loading  and  discharging  of  cargo  on  or  from  our  vessels,  (b)  vessel
inspections and related certifications by class societies, customers or government agencies, (c) maintenance, modifications or repairs to, or
drydocking of, our existing vessels due to worker health or other business disruptions, and (d) the timing of crew changes; reduced cash flow
and financial condition, including potential liquidity constraints; potential reduced access to capital as a result of any credit tightening generally
or  due  to  continued  declines  in  global  financial  markets;  potential  reduced  ability  to  opportunistically  sell  any  of  our  vessels  on  the  second-
hand market, either as a result of a lack of buyers or a general decline in the value of second-hand vessels; potential decreases in the market
values  of  our  vessels  and  any  related  impairment  charges  or  breaches  relating  to  vessel-to-loan  financial  covenants;  potential  disruptions,
delays  or  cancellations  in  the  construction  of  new  LNG  projects  (including  production,  liquefaction,  regasification,  storage  and  distribution
facilities),  which  could  reduce  our  future  growth  opportunities;  and  potential  deterioration  in  the  financial  condition  and  prospects  of  our
customers or business partners.

Given the dynamic nature of the pandemic, including the development of variants of the virus, the duration of any potential business disruption
and the related financial impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time and could materially affect our business, results of operations and
financial condition. Please read “Item 3 - Key Information - Risk Factors” for additional information about potential risks of COVID-19 on our
business.

IMO 2020 Low Sulfur Fuel Regulation

Effective January 1, 2020, the International Maritime Organization imposed a 0.50% m/m (mass by mass) global limit for sulfur in fuel oil used
onboard ships. To comply with this new regulatory standard, ships may utilize different fuels containing low or zero sulfur or utilize exhaust gas
cleaning systems, known as “scrubbers”. To date, neither Teekay LNG nor Teekay Tankers has installed any scrubbers on their existing fleets,
but  each  has  taken  and  continues  to  take  steps  to  comply  with  the  2020  sulfur  limit.  Detailed  plans  to  address  this  changeover  have  been
successfully implemented.

46

Teekay  LNG  communicated  with  its  charterers  in  seeking  to  promote  the  use  of  LNG  as  the  primary  fuel  whenever  possible. All  charterers 
accepted the rationale as a logical means of compliance. Vessels are supplied with compliant low sulfur heavy fuel oil and low sulfur marine 
gas  oil  which  are  used  as  pilot  fuels,  maneuvering  or  heel  out  situations,  or  in  the  case  of  heavy  fuel  oil  only  vessels,  as  the  primary  fuel. 
Under  time  charters,  as  both  the  LNG  and  compliant  fuel  is  supplied  by  the  charterers,  there  has  been  minimal  impact  on  revenues  and 
voyage expenses for our LNG fleet.

Teekay Tankers' transition to low sulfur fuel did not have a significant impact on its operating results. The future fuel price spread between high 
sulfur fuel and low sulfur fuel is uncertain; however, the use of higher cost low sulfur fuel has and is expected to continue to increase Teekay 
Tankers' voyage expenses. Teekay Tankers expects that it will be able to recover fuel price increases from the charterers of its vessels through 
higher revenues from voyage charters. 

The size of and types of vessels in our fleet continues to change. Our results of operations reflect changes in the size and composition of
our fleet due to certain vessel deliveries, vessel dispositions and changes to the number of vessels we charter in, as well as our entry into new
markets. Please read “– Results of Operations” below for further details about vessel dispositions, deliveries and vessels chartered in. Due to
the nature of our business, we expect our fleet to continue to fluctuate in size and composition.

Vessel operating and other costs are facing industry-wide cost pressures. We continue to maintain our operating expense increases at
near  inflationary  levels;  however,  regulatory  compliance  has  increased  cost  pressures  on  operators  in  recent  years  which  may  lead  to
increased  operational  expenses  in  the  future.  In  2020,  we  have  been  impacted  by  COVID-19  and  the  implications  of  resulting  logistical
challenges  across  our  fleet.  We  had  to  defer  the  scheduled  maintenance  for  certain  of  our  vessels  from  2020  to  2021. Additionally,  due  to
increased length of stay for seafarers on board the vessels, we have had an increase in crewing costs.

Our  net  income  is  affected  by  fluctuations  in  the  fair  value  of  our  derivative  instruments.  Most  of  our  existing  cross  currency  and
interest  rate  swap  agreements  and  foreign  currency  forward  contracts  are  not  designated  as  hedges  for  accounting  purposes. Although  we
believe  the  non-designated  derivative  instruments  are  economic  hedges,  the  changes  in  their  fair  value  are  included  in  our  consolidated
statements of income (loss) as unrealized gains or losses on non-designated derivatives. The unrealized changes in fair value do not affect
our cash flows or liquidity.

The amount and timing of dry dockings of our vessels can affect our revenues between periods. Our vessels are off-hire at  various
times due to scheduled and unscheduled maintenance. During 2020 and 2019, on a consolidated basis and excluding vessels in our equity-
accounted joint ventures,- we incurred 591 and 886 off-hire days relating to dry docking, respectively. The financial impact from these periods
of off-hire, if material, is explained in further detail below in "– Results of Operations”. During 2021, 17 of our vessels are scheduled for dry
docking, excluding vessels in our equity-accounted joint ventures, compared to 13 vessels which dry docked during 2020.

Our financial results are affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates. Under GAAP, all foreign currency-denominated monetary
assets  and  liabilities  (including  cash  and  cash  equivalents,  restricted  cash,  accounts  receivable,  accounts  payable,  accrued  liabilities,
advances from affiliates, and long-term debt) are revalued and reported based on the prevailing exchange rate at the end of the period. These
foreign currency translations fluctuate based on the strength of the U.S. Dollar relative mainly to the Euro and NOK and are included in our
results  of  operations.  The  translation  of  all  foreign  currency-denominated  monetary  assets  and  liabilities  at  each  reporting  date  results  in
unrealized foreign currency exchange gains or losses but do not currently impact our cash flows.

The  duration  of  our  FPSO  contract  for  the  Sevan  Hummingbird  FPSO  unit  is  subject  to  early  termination  options.  If  the  charterer
exercised  its  early  termination  option,  we  will  no  longer  generate  revenue  under  the  related  contract  and  will  need  to  seek  to
redeploy, sell or scrap the unit. The likelihood of the contract being terminated early is affected by reductions in oil field reserves, low oil
prices generally or other factors. If we are unable to promptly redeploy the unit at a rate at least equal to the existing contract, if at all, our
operating results will be harmed. Any potential redeployment may not be under a long-term contract, which may affect the stability of our cash
flow. If the unit is not redeployed or sold, we may incur costs to decommission and scrap the unit. FPSO units, in particular, are specialized
vessels that have very limited alternative uses and high fixed costs. In addition, FPSO units typically require substantial capital investments
prior to being redeployed to a new field and production service agreement. Any idle time prior to the commencement of a new contract or our
inability to redeploy the vessel at an acceptable rate may have an adverse effect on our business and operating results.

Certain  of  Teekay  LNG's  consolidated  and  equity-accounted  vessels  earned  revenues  based  partly  on  spot  market  rates.  All  of
Teekay  LNG's  wholly-owned  multi-gas  carriers,  and  certain  of  our  LPG  carriers  in  our  50%-owned  Exmar  LPG  Joint  Venture  were  either
trading or are currently trading in the spot market. Volatility of spot rates will affect our results from period to period.

We do not control access to cash flow generated by our investments in equity-accounted joint ventures. We do not have control over
the  operations  of,  nor  do  we  have  any  legal  claim  to  the  revenue  and  expenses  of  our  investments  in,  our  equity-accounted  joint  ventures.
Consequently, the cash flow generated by our investments in equity-accounted joint ventures may not be available for use by us in the period
that such cash flows are generated.

(1) During 2019, Teekay Tankers' ship-to-ship transfer business provided operational and maintenance services to Teekay LNG Bahrain Operations L.L.C., an entity
wholly-owned by Teekay LNG, for the LNG receiving and regasification terminal in Bahrain. Also during 2019, the Magellan Spirit LNG carrier was chartered by 
Teekay LNG to Teekay Parent for a short period of time. 

Summary

Teekay Corporation's consolidated income from vessels operations increased to $314.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to 
$204.0 million in the prior year. The primary reasons for this increase are as follows:

•

•

a decrease in loss from vessel operations in Teekay Parent of $166.0 million primarily due to lower impairment charges relating to FPSO
units in 2020, a gain on commencement of a sales-type lease and improved results as a result of a new bareboat charter agreement for
the  Petrojarl  Foinaven  FPSO  unit  in  2020,  partially  offset  by  decommissioning  costs  incurred  for  the  Petrojarl  Banff  FPSO  unit  after  it
ceased operations in June 2020;

an increase in income from vessel operations in Teekay Tankers of $17.7 million primarily due to higher overall average realized spot TCE
rates earned by its Suezmax and LR2 product tankers, fewer off-hire days related to dry dockings and lower off-hire bunker expenses, a
higher number of vessels on time-charter out contracts earning higher rates, as well as higher earnings from Teekay Tankers' full service
lightering (or FSL) dedicated vessels in 2020, partially offset by impairment charges of $66.7 million in 2020;

partially offset by

•

a decrease in income from vessel operations in Teekay LNG of $73.2 million primarily due to a $51.0 million write-down of seven multi-
gas carriers during 2020 and due to the sale of the WilPride and WilForce LNG carriers in January 2020.

Details of the changes to our results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to the year ended December 31, 2019 are

Teekay LNG

As at December 31, 2020, Teekay LNG’s liquefied gas fleet consisted of a controlling interest in 22 LNG carriers and seven LPG/multi-gas carriers. 
In addition, Teekay LNG also has interests of 20% to 52% in 25 LNG carriers, 23 LPG/multi-gas carriers and one LNG regasification terminal in 
Bahrain that are accounted for using the equity method.

Recent Developments in Teekay LNG

During March 2021, Teekay LNG secured a one-year, variable-rate charter contract, with a one-year option at a fixed rate for the Creole Spirit LNG 
carrier, which commenced in March 2021.

During July 2020, Teekay LNG's 52%-owned joint venture with Marubeni Corporation (or the MALT Joint Venture) secured an eight-month charter 
contract for the Methane Spirit, after its previous charter contract ended. In addition, in December 2020, the MALT Joint Venture secured a two-
year, fixed-rate charter contract, with a one-year option, for the Methane Spirit which is expected to commence in April 2021.

During April and May 2020, the MALT Joint Venture also secured the following charter contracts: a one-year, fixed-rate charter contract, with a one-
year option, for the Arwa Spirit which commenced in May 2020 after its previous charter contract ended; and a six-month charter contract for the 
Marib Spirit which commenced in June 2020 after its prior charter contract ended. In October 2020, the charterer of the Marib Spirit exercised its 
options to extend the current charter by 14 months at a higher charter rate, extending the vessel's charter coverage to early-2022, and has another 
one-year option available. In March 2021, the charterer of the Arwa Spirit exercised its one-year option to extend the charter contract to May 2022.

In  March  2020,  Teekay  LNG  received  notice  from  the  Manager,  which  commercially  manages  its  seven  wholly-owned  multi-gas  vessels,  that  it 
would dissolve the pool in which these seven multi-gas vessels were then being managed, effective September 2020, in accordance with its rights 
in the then-existing commercial management agreement. This notice, along with the lower near-term outlook for these types of vessels that resulted 
from  the  economic  environment  at  that  time  (including  the  COVID-19  pandemic),  impacted  its  assessment  of  the  expected  earnings  for  these 
vessels which resulted in a write-down of its seven multi-gas carriers during 2020 - see "Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 18 – Write-down and 
Loss on Sale". In July 2020, Teekay LNG entered into a new commercial management agreement with its third-party commercial manager (or the 
Manager) to commercially manage its seven wholly-owned multi-gas vessels for a two-year term, which came into effect in September 2020 upon 
the  vessels  redelivering  from  the  previous  pool  arrangement  and  termination  of  the  prior  commercial  management  agreement.  In  early-2021, 
Teekay  LNG's  commercial  manager  publicly  announced  that  it  intends  to  merge  its  business  and  operations  with  another  third-party  commercial 
manager. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2021, upon which the surviving entity will continue to commercially manage Teekay 
LNG's seven wholly-owned multi-gas vessels for the remaining two-year term under the current commercial management agreement.

In  January  2020,  Awilco  LNG  ASA  (or  Awilco)  repurchased  the  WilPride  and  WilForce  LNG  carriers,  respectively,  and  paid  Teekay  LNG  the 
associated vessel purchase obligations, deferred hire amounts and interest on deferred hire amounts totaling $260.4 million relating to these two 
vessels. Teekay LNG used the proceeds from the sales to repay $157 million of term loans that were collateralized by these vessels and to fund 
working capital requirements. 

In November 2019, Teekay LNG's joint venture with National Oil & Gas Authority (or NOGA), Gulf Investment Corporation and Samsung C&T (or 
the Bahrain LNG Joint Venture), in which Teekay LNG has a 30% interest, completed the mechanical construction and commissioning of the LNG 
receiving  and  regasification  terminal  in  Bahrain.  The  project  began  receiving  terminal  use  payments  in  January  2020  under  its  terminal  use 
agreement with NOGA which ends in February 2039.

Income from vessel operations for Teekay LNG decreased to $226.1 million in 2020 compared to $299.3 million in 2019, primarily as a result of:

•

•

•

•

a decrease of $64.6 million due to the write-down of seven multi-gas carriers in 2020 compared to a write-down of one conventional tanker in
2019 and a gain recognized on the derecognition of the WilPride and WilForce LNG carriers in 2019;

a decrease of $10.5 million due to the sales of the Toledo Spirit, Alexander Spirit, WilPride, and WilForce LNG carriers between January 2019
and January 2020;

a decrease of $8.0 million during 2020, primarily due to an increase in vessel operating expenses due to timing of repairs and maintenance
expenditures, and an increase in general and administrative expenses related to professional fees associated with the elimination of Teekay
LNG's incentive distribution rights, and higher insurance premiums; and

a decrease of $4.6 million due to lower rates earned for the Bahrain Spirit in 2020 as the vessel was trading primarily as a floating storage unit
(or FSU) for the majority of 2020 compared to higher rates earned when it traded as an LNG carrier in 2019 prior to the completion of the LNG
terminal in Bahrain in November 2019, and lower rates earned on the redeployment of the Magellan Spirit in May 2019;

partially offset by

•

an increase of $13.3 million due to fewer off-hire days during 2020, primarily for scheduled dry dockings and unscheduled repairs for certain
vessels.

Equity income related to Teekay LNG’s liquefied gas carriers increased to $72.2 million in 2020 compared to $58.8 million in 2019. The changes 
were primarily a result of:

•

•

•

an  increase  of  $45.3  million  due  to  the  deliveries  of  four ARC7  LNG  carrier  newbuildings  (the Nikolay  Yevgenov,  the  Vladimir  Voronin,  the
Georgiy Ushakov and the Yakov Gakkel) in June 2019, August 2019, November 2019, and December 2019, respectively; delivery of the Pan
Africa in January 2019; and the commencement of the terminal use agreement of the Bahrain LNG Joint Venture in early-2020;

an increase of $9.5 million due to higher charter rates earned by certain vessels in Teekay LNG's 50/50 LPG joint venture with Exmar NV (or
the Exmar LPG Joint Venture); and

an increase of $3.4 million due to fewer off-hire days during 2020, primarily for scheduled dry dockings and unscheduled repairs for certain
vessels in the MALT Joint Venture;

partially offset by

50

•

a decrease of $29.4 million due to higher unrealized losses on non-designated interest rate swaps relating to decreases in long-term forward
LIBOR benchmark interest rates relative to the beginning of 2020 and credit loss provisions recognized during 2020 that followed the adoption
of ASC 326 on January 1, 2020 (please see "Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" and "Item
18 - Financial Statements: Note 11: Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments") which were primarily due to the commencement of
the  sales-type  lease  for  the  Bahrain  regasification  terminal  and  associated  FSU  in  January  2020  and  declines  in  estimated  charter-free
valuations for certain types of LNG carriers servicing time-charter contracts accounted for as direct financing and sales-type leases; and

•

a decrease of $17.0 million due to impairment charges recorded on four LPG carriers in the Exmar LPG Joint Venture in 2020.

Teekay Tankers

As at December 31, 2020, Teekay Tankers owned and leased 52 double-hulled conventional oil and product tankers, time chartered-in two Aframax 
and one Long Range 2 (or LR2) product tankers, and owned a 50% interest in one Very Large Crude Carrier (or VLCC).

Recent Developments in Teekay Tankers

In March 2021, Teekay Tankers declared purchase options to acquire six Aframax tankers for a total cost of $128.8 million, as part of the repurchase 
options under the sale-leaseback arrangements described in "Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 10 - Obligations Related to Finance Leases" of 
this Annual Report. Teekay Tankers expects to complete the purchase and delivery of these vessels in September 2021.

In February 2021, Teekay Tankers agreed to sell two Aframax tankers for a combined sales price of $32.0 million. Both tankers were delivered in 
March 2021.

In December 2020, Teekay Tankers entered into a time charter-in contract for one Aframax tanker newbuilding for a firm period of seven years at an 
initial daily rate of $18,700. The contract includes three one-year option periods and a purchase option at the end of the second option period. The 
vessel is expected to be delivered to Teekay Tankers during the fourth quarter of 2022. 

In  November  2020,  Teekay  Tankers  declared  purchase  options  to  acquire  two  Suezmax  tankers  for  a  total  cost  of  $56.7  million,  as  part  of  the 
repurchase options under the sale-leaseback arrangements described in "Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 10 - Obligations Related to Finance 
Leases" of this Annual Report. Teekay Tankers expects to complete the purchase and delivery of these vessels in May 2021.

In October 2020, Teekay Tankers completed the repurchase of two Aframax tankers previously under the sale-leaseback arrangements described in 
"Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 10 - Obligations Related to Finance Leases" of this Annual Report, for a total cost of $29.6 million, using 
available cash.

In September 2020, Teekay Tankers entered into a time charter-out contract for one Aframax tanker with a one-year term at a daily rate of $18,700. 
This charter-out contract commenced in October 2020.

Between March and May 2020, Teekay Tankers entered into time charter-out contracts for five Suezmax tankers and one LR2 tanker with one-year 
terms at average daily rates of $45,600 and $29,000, respectively, and two Aframax tankers with one to two-year terms at an average daily rate of 
$25,600. These charter-out contracts commenced between April and June 2020.

During the first quarter of 2020, Teekay Tankers completed the sale of three Suezmax tankers in separate transactions for a combined sales price of 
approximately $60.9 million. Two Suezmax tankers were delivered in February 2020, and one Suezmax tanker was delivered in March 2020.

In  April  2020,  Teekay  Tankers  sold  the  non-U.S.  portion  of  its  ship-to-ship  business,  as  well  as  its  LNG  terminal  management  business,  for 
approximately $27.1 million, including an adjustment for the final amounts of cash and other working capital present on the closing date. The sale 
resulted in a gain on sale of approximately $3.1 million. Of the total proceeds, $14.3 million was received in May 2020 and the remaining $12.7 
million was received in July 2020.

Tanker Market

2020 was a year of two distinct halves in the tanker market, with a strong first half of the year giving way to a much weaker second half. The tanker 
market started 2020 on a positive note as firm supply and demand fundamentals existing during the fourth quarter of 2019 continued into the early 
part of the year. Rates were boosted by an increase in oil production during March and April due to the short-lived oil price war between Russia and 
Saudi Arabia  which  resulted  in  an  increase  in  cargos.  This  increased  production  occurred  just  as  oil  demand  started  to  plummet  as  a  result  of 
COVID-19 lockdowns across the globe which led to a significant mismatch between global oil supply and demand and a historic build in global oil 
inventories. The rapid build in inventories drove oil prices to multi-year lows and pushed the crude oil futures curve into a steep contango, which 
encouraged  oil  traders  to  charter  ships  for  floating  storage.  The  increasing  number  of  tankers  being  utilized  for  storage  led  to  a  tightening  of 
available fleet supply which, in combination with healthy cargo supply, resulted in increased tanker fleet utilization. As a result, spot tanker rates 
increased to multi-year highs during the first and second quarters of the year.

Tanker market dynamics shifted towards the end of the second quarter of 2020 due to steep oil production cuts from the OPEC+ group of suppliers 
in response to lower oil demand. The OPEC+ group implemented record oil production cuts of 9.7 million barrels per day (or mb/d) from May 2020 
which negatively affected tanker demand. Although the OPEC+ group brought 2.0 mb/d of supply back in August 2020, this still left tanker trade 
volumes well below pre-COVID levels. Spot rates deteriorated further during the fourth quarter of the year as a number of ships which were being 
used as floating storage returned to the trading fleet, thus increasing available fleet supply. In addition, a resurgence in COVID-19 cases during the 
fourth  quarter,  particularly  in  Europe  and  North  America,  led  to  renewed  lockdowns  and  caused  both  a  slowdown  in  oil  demand  and  reduced 
refinery throughput. This weakness in rates has carried on into early 2021.

Looking  ahead,  Teekay  Tankers  expects  that  tanker  demand  will  start  to  recover  during  2021  as  oil  demand  increases  and  oil  inventories  are 
brought back to more normal levels. However, the timing of this recovery remains uncertain and depends to a large extent on how the COVID-19 
pandemic evolves over the coming months. As per the International Energy Agency (or IEA), global oil demand is expected to grow by 5.5 mb/d in 
2021  following  an  8.8  mb/d  decline  in  2020.  The  demand  recovery  is  expected  to  accelerate  during  the  second  half  of  2021  as  COVID-19 
vaccination  programs  are  rolled-out  worldwide.  Global  oil  supply  is  likely  to  remain  constrained  in  the  near-term,  particularly  with  Saudi Arabia 
announcing a cut of 1.0 mb/d during February and March 2021. However, Teekay Tankers expects oil supply volumes to increase during the latter 
part of the year in tandem with the oil demand recovery, which will be positive for tanker demand.

Fleet supply fundamentals continue to look very positive due to a significantly reduced level of newbuild ordering, a diminishing tanker orderbook, 
and the potential for higher scrapping due to an aging world fleet. As of January 2021, the tanker orderbook totaled 54.2 million deadweight tonnes 
(or  mdwt),  or  just  over  eight  percent  of  the  existing  fleet  size.  The  level  of  newbuild  orders  remains  low,  and  is  expected  to  remain  so  due  to 
uncertainty  over  vessel  technology  and  a  more  restrictive  financial  landscape.  Although  the  level  of  tanker  scrapping  was  very  low  in  2020, 
scrapping facilities have now returned to full operation, and the level may pick up during periods of potentially weaker spot tanker rates in 2021.

In summary, the tanker market has weakened since the middle of 2020 and the next few months look to be challenging. However, tanker demand 
should  continue  to  gradually  recover  through  2021  which,  coupled  with  a  positive  fleet  supply  outlook,  should  help  the  tanker  market  begin  to 
rebalance.

Teekay Tankers' income from vessel operations increased to $141.6 million in 2020 compared to $123.9 million in 2019, primarily as a result of:

•

•

a net increase of $70.1 million due to higher overall average realized spot TCE rates earned by Suezmax tankers and LR2 product tankers, as
well as a higher extension rate from one time-charter out contract, partially offset by lower overall average realized spot TCE rates earned by
Aframax tankers and lower earnings from FSL dedicated vessels; and

a net increase of $39.7 million primarily due to a higher number of vessels on time-charter out contracts earning higher rates compared to spot
rates for 2019;

52

partially offset by

•

•

•

•

a decrease of $66.7 million due to an increase in write-downs mainly related to the impairment of nine Aframax tankers and four right-of-use
assets due to the weak near-term tanker market outlook, a reduction of charter rates as a result of the current economic environment, and a
decline in vessel values during 2020;

a decrease of $11.2 million due to the sale of one Suezmax tanker in the fourth quarter of 2019 and three Suezmax tankers in the first quarter
of 2020;

a decrease of $6.3 million primarily due to the depreciation related to capitalized expenditures for vessels which dry docked during 2019 and
2020; and

a  decrease  of  $5.2  million  primarily  due  to  increased  crewing-related  costs  that  have  been  impacted  by  disruptions  resulting  from  the
COVID-19 global pandemic.

Equity  income  increased  to  $5.1  million  in  2020  from  $2.3  million  in  2019  primarily  due  to  higher  spot  rates  realized  by  Teekay  Tankers'  50% 
ownership interest in a VLCC, which has been trading in a third party-managed VLCC pooling arrangement.

Teekay Parent

As at December 31, 2020, Teekay Parent had direct interests in three 100%-owned FPSO units, which are included in Teekay Parent’s Offshore 
Production business. In addition, included in Teekay Parent’s Other and Corporate G&A segment was one FSO unit in-chartered from Altera until 
March  2021. Teekay  Parent  also  redelivered  one  FSO  unit  to Altera  in August  2020,  one  bunker  barge  to  a  third  party  in  May  2020,  two  shuttle 
tankers to Altera in March 2020, and one FSO unit to Altera in April 2019. The remaining portion of the Other and Corporate G&A segment primarily 
relates  to  Teekay  Parent's  marine  services  business  in  Australia  as  well  as  marine  and  corporate  services  provided  to  Teekay  LNG's  equity-
accounted joint ventures and Altera.

Recent Developments in Teekay Parent

In  the  third  quarter  of  2020,  Teekay  Parent  recognized  an  impairment  charge  of  $9.1  million  relating  to  its  right-of-use  asset  for  the  Suksan 
Salamander  FSO  unit. Teekay  Parent  reduced  its  expected  cash  flows  from  the  Suksan  Salamander  FSO  unit,  which  it  in-chartered  from Altera 
under an operating lease, to take into account progress relating to the early termination of the in-charter and the novation of the charter contracts 
with the customer to Altera. The novation of the charter contracts was completed in March 2021 and the in-charter terminated at the same time.

During 2020, Teekay Parent made changes to its expected cash flows from the Sevan Hummingbird FPSO unit based on the market environment 
and oil prices, and contract discussions with the customer. The carrying value of the unit was fully written down in the third quarter of 2020, resulting 
in impairment charges of $37.2 million for the year ended December 30, 2020.

In the first quarter of 2020, CNR International (U.K.) Limited (or CNRI) provided formal notice to Teekay of its intention to decommission the Banff 
field and remove the Petrojarl Banff FPSO and the Apollo Spirit FSO from the field in 2020. The oil production under the existing contract for the 
Petrojarl  Banff  FPSO  unit  ceased  on  June  1,  2020,  at  which  time  Teekay  Parent  began  incurring  decommissioning/asset  retirement  costs. 
Accordingly, during the year ended December 31, 2020, the asset retirement obligation for the Petrojarl Banff FPSO unit was increased based on 
changes to cost estimates and the carrying value of the unit was fully written down in the third quarter of 2020, resulting in impairment charges of 
$33.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. In December 2020, Teekay Parent entered into a contract to recycle the Petrojarl Banff FPSO 
unit in Denmark in 2021. The cost of recycling the unit, including lay-up and towage costs, is estimated to be approximately $10 million.

In March 2020, Teekay Parent entered into a new bareboat charter contract with the existing charterer of the Petrojarl Foinaven FPSO, which can 
be extended up to December 2030. Under the terms of the new contract, Teekay Parent received a cash payment of $67 million in April 2020 and 
will receive a nominal per day rate over the life of the contract and a lump sum payment at the end of the contract period, which is expected to 
cover  the  costs  of  recycling  the  FPSO  unit  in  accordance  with  the  EU  ship  recycling  regulations.  This  transaction  resulted  in  a  gain  on 
commencement of sales-type lease of $44.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Teekay Parent – Offshore Production

Loss from vessel operations for Teekay Parent’s Offshore Production business was $38.1 million for 2020, compared to loss from vessel operations 
of $208.2 million for 2019. The changes are primarily a result of:

•

•

•

a decrease in loss of $107.6 million due to lower impairment charges in 2020;

a  decrease  in  loss  of  $74.0  million  for  2020,  primarily  due  to  a  $44.9  million  gain  on  commencement  of  the  sales-type  lease  and  improved
results associated with the new bareboat charter agreement for the Petrojarl Foinaven FPSO unit in 2020; and

a decrease in loss of $10.9 million for 2020, related to the Sevan Hummingbird FPSO unit, primarily due to a new contract that took effect in
the fourth quarter of 2019 at a higher rate as well as lower depreciation as a result of write-downs of the unit to its estimated fair value in the
third quarter of 2019, and then to nil in the third quarter of 2020;

 partially offset by 

•

an increase in loss of $22.3 million for 2020, related to the Petrojarl Banff FPSO unit, primarily due to cessation of production on the Banff field
in June 2020 and the associated decommissioning costs incurred.

Teekay Parent – Other and Corporate G&A

Loss  from  vessel  operations  for  Teekay  Parent’s  Other  and  Corporate  G&A  segment  was  $15.0  million  for  2020,  compared  to  loss  from  vessel 
operations of $10.9 million for 2019. The increase in loss was primarily due to the write-down of the Suksan Salamander FSO unit, as described 
above in "Recent Developments in Teekay Parent," partially offset by decreases in corporate expenses and restructuring charges.

Equity-Accounted Investment in Altera

We recognized equity losses from Altera of $75.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. Included in that amount was a write-down of our 
investment in Altera of $64.9 million and a loss on sale of Altera of $8.9 million.

Interest expense. Interest expense decreased to $225.6 million in 2020, compared to $279.1 million in 2019, primarily due to:

•

•

•

•

a decrease of $20.5 million relating to Teekay LNG primarily due to a decrease in LIBOR and reduction in debt balances as a result of principal
and bond repayments throughout 2019 and 2020;

a decrease of $13.8 million primarily due to Teekay Tankers' significant prepayments of loan principal during the fourth quarter of 2019 and
during  2020,  and  the  debt  refinancings  completed  during  2020,  which  resulted  in  lower  interest  rates  in  comparison  to  those  under  the
previous facilities, along with overall lower average LIBOR rates, partially offset by the write-off of previously capitalized loan costs and non-
capitalized loan costs associated with the debt refinancings;

a decrease of $8.9 million as part of the proceeds from the sale of the WilForce and WilPride were used to the repay Teekay LNG's term loans
that were collateralized by these vessels; and

a decrease of $7.9 million relating to Teekay Parent as a result of the repurchase in 2019 and at maturity of the 8.5% senior notes (or the 2020
Notes) in January 2020, partially offset by an increase in debt issuance cost amortization, and the higher interest rate for the 9.25% senior
secured notes due November 2022 (or the 2022 Notes) issued by Teekay Parent in May 2019.

Realized and unrealized losses on non-designated derivative instruments. Realized and unrealized (losses) related to derivative instruments that 
are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes are included as a separate line item in the consolidated statements of income (loss). Net 
realized and unrealized losses on non-designated derivatives were $35.9 million for 2020, compared to $13.7 million for 2019, as detailed in the 
table below:

The realized losses relate to amounts we actually realized for settlements related to these derivative instruments in normal course and amounts 
paid to terminate interest rate swap agreement terminations. 

During  2020  and  2019,  we  had  interest  rate  swap  agreements  with  aggregate  average  net  outstanding  notional  amounts  of  approximately  $0.9 
billion and $1.1 billion, respectively, with average fixed rates of approximately 3.1% and 3.0%, respectively. Short-term variable benchmark interest 
rates during these periods were generally lower than these fixed rates, and, as such, we incurred realized losses of $17.5 million and $8.3 million 
during 2020 and 2019, respectively, under the interest rate swap agreements. 

Primarily as a result of significant changes in long-term benchmark interest rates during 2020 and 2019, we recognized unrealized losses of $17.6 
million in 2020 compared to unrealized gains of $7.9 million in 2019 under the interest rate swap agreements.

Prior to the 2019 Brookfield Transaction, Teekay held 15.5 million common unit warrants issued by Altera to Teekay in connection with the 2017 
Brookfield Transaction (or the Brookfield Transaction Warrants) and 1,755,000 warrants to purchase common units of Altera issued to Teekay in 
connection with Altera's private placement of Series D Preferred Units in June 2016 (or the Series D Warrants). Please read “Item 18 – Financial 
Statements: Note 15 – Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. During the year ended December 31, 2019, we recognized an unrealized gain 
of  $26.9  million  on  these  warrants,  which  was  partially  offset  by  a  realized  loss  of  $25.6  million  during  the  same  period.  As  part  of  the  2019 
Brookfield Transaction, Teekay sold to Brookfield all of the Company’s remaining interests in Altera, which included, among other things, both the 
Brookfield Transaction Warrants and Series D Warrants.

Foreign Exchange Loss. Foreign currency exchange losses were $20.7 million in 2020 compared to losses of $13.6 million in 2019. Our foreign 
currency  exchange  gains  and  losses,  substantially  all  of  which  are  unrealized,  are  primarily  due  to  the  relevant  period-end  revaluation  of  our 
Norwegian-Krone  (or  NOK)-denominated  debt  and  our  Euro-denominated  term  loans,  finance  leases  and  restricted  cash  for  financial  reporting 
purposes  and  the  realized  and  unrealized  (losses)  gains  on  our  cross  currency  swaps.  Gains  on  NOK-denominated  and  Euro-denominated 
monetary liabilities reflect a stronger U.S. Dollar against the NOK and Euro on the date of revaluation or settlement compared to the rate in effect at 
the beginning of the period. Losses on NOK-denominated and Euro-denominated monetary liabilities reflect a weaker U.S. Dollar against the NOK 
and Euro on the date of revaluation or settlement compared to the rate in effect at the beginning of the period. 

For 2020, foreign currency exchange loss included realized losses of $6.6 million (2019 – $5.1 million) and unrealized gains of $26.8 million (2019 – 
losses of $13.2 million) on our cross currency swaps, realized losses on maturity and termination of cross currency swaps of $33.8 million (2019 – 
nil) and an unrealized gain of $3.5 million (2019 – gain of $5.8 million) on the revaluation of our NOK-denominated debt.

Other  loss.  Other  loss  increased  to  $18.1  million  in  2020  compared  to  $14.5  million  in  2019  primarily  due  to  unrealized  credit  loss  provisions 
recognized in 2020 as a result of declines of estimated charter-free valuations of certain LNG vessels (new credit loss accounting standard adopted 
January  1,  2020),  which  are  servicing  time-charter  contracts  accounted  for  as  direct  financing  and  sales-type  leases,  and  the  impact  of  such 
declines  on  our  expectation  of  the  value  of  such  vessels  upon  completion  of  their  existing  charter  contracts,  partially  offset  by  losses  on  the 
repurchase of 2020 Notes during 2019.

Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense was $9.0 million in 2020 compared to $25.5 million in 2019. The income tax expense in 2020 includes 
the reversal of freight tax liabilities as a result of an agreement with a tax authority, which was based in part on an initiative of the tax authority in 
response  to  the  COVID-19  global  pandemic  and  included  the  waiver  of  interest  and  penalties  on  unpaid  taxes,  which  was  partially  offset  by  an 
increase in freight taxes recognized in a certain jurisdiction due to uncertainty surrounding a recent tax law change and the limited transparency into 
the actions of the tax authority in this jurisdiction. For additional information, please read "Item 18 - Financial Statements: Note 21 - Income Tax 
Expense" of this Annual Report.

Year Ended December 31, 2019 versus Year Ended December 31, 2018

For a discussion of our operating results for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared with the year ended December 31, 2018, please see 
"Item 5 – Recent Developments and Results of Operations" in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2019.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity and Cash Needs

Teekay Corporation Consolidated

Overall, our consolidated operations are capital intensive. We finance the purchase of our vessels primarily through a combination of borrowings 
from  commercial  banks,  the  issuance  of  equity  and  debt  securities  (primarily  by  our  Daughter  Entities),  through  partnering  with  joint  venture 
partners and cash generated from operations. In addition, we may use sale and leaseback arrangements as a source of long-term liquidity. We use 
certain  of  our  revolving  credit  facilities  to  finance  changes  in  working  capital  or  other  expenditures  which  may  arise. As  at  December  31,  2020, 
Teekay Corporation’s total consolidated cash and cash equivalents was $348.8 million, compared to $354.4 million at December 31, 2019 (which 
included cash presented in assets held for sale). Teekay Corporation’s total consolidated liquidity, including cash, cash equivalents, undrawn credit 
facilities and the undrawn portion of a loan, which is determined based on certain borrowing criteria to finance Teekay Tankers' RSAs, was $1.0 
billion as at December 31, 2020 and $672.0 million as at December 31, 2019.

Our revolving credit facilities and term loans are described in "Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 8 – Long-Term Debt.” They contain covenants 
and other restrictions typical of debt financing secured by vessels that restrict our ship-owning subsidiaries from, among other things: incurring or 
guaranteeing indebtedness; changing ownership or structure, including mergers, consolidations, liquidations and dissolutions; making dividends or 
distributions if we are in default; making capital expenditures in excess of specified levels; making certain negative pledges and granting certain 
liens; selling, transferring, assigning or conveying assets; making certain loans and investments; or entering into new lines of business.

Our long-term debt agreements generally provide for maintenance of minimum consolidated financial covenants and five of our loan agreements 
require  the  maintenance  of  vessel  market  value  to  loan  ratios. As  at  December  31,  2020,  these  vessel  market  value  to  loan  ratios  were  405%, 
273%, 142%, 215% and 190% compared to their minimum required ratios of 125%, 115%, 120%, 135% and 125%, respectively. The vessel values 
used in these ratios are the appraised values provided by third parties where available or prepared by us based on second-hand sale and purchase 
market data. Changes in the LNG/LPG carrier or conventional tanker markets could negatively affect our compliance with these ratios.

Certain loan agreements require Teekay LNG to maintain a minimum level of tangible net worth, and minimum liquidity (cash, cash equivalents and 
undrawn committed revolving credit lines with at least six months to maturity) of the greater of $35.0 million, and not to exceed a maximum level of 
financial leverage. Certain loan agreements require Teekay Tankers to maintain minimum liquidity (cash, cash equivalents and undrawn committed 
revolving credit lines with at least six months to maturity) of the greater of $35.0 million and at least 5.0% of Teekay Tankers' total consolidated debt 
and obligations related to finance leases.

The indenture that governs our 2022 Notes (further described in the Teekay Parent section below) contains covenants that, among other things, 
restrict our and the guarantors’ ability to: incur additional indebtedness and guarantee indebtedness; pay dividends or make other distributions or 
repurchase  or  redeem  our  equity  interests;  prepay,  redeem  or  repurchase  certain  debt;  issue  certain  preferred  stock  or  similar  equity  securities; 
make investments; sell assets; incur liens, including the granting of any lien on any of the 2022 Note collateral, or further pledging any of the 2022 
Note collateral as security, subject to permitted liens; enter into transactions with affiliates; and consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of 
our assets. The indenture also provides that under specific circumstances we may be required to offer to use all or a portion of the net proceeds of 
sales of our FPSO units or sales of Class B common stock of Teekay Tankers consummated prior to a specified date to repurchase 2022 Notes at a 
premium. The indenture further provides that we may be required, under certain circumstances, to offer to use all or a portion of the net proceeds of 
certain  asset  sales  (other  than  a  sale  of  an  FPSO  unit  or  shares  of  Class  B  common  stock  of  Teekay  Tankers  prior  to  the  specified  date)  to 
repurchase 2022 Notes.

As at December 31, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under our credit facilities and other long-term debt.

The  aggregate  annual  long-term  debt  principal  repayments  required  to  be  made  by  us  subsequent  to  December  31,  2020,  excluding  payments 
made related to our finance lease obligations and after giving effect to Teekay LNG's term loan facility refinancing completed in February 2021, are 
$262.3 million (2021), $463.5 million (2022), $392.8 million (2023), $310.9 million (2024), $187.8 million (2025) and $469.8 million (thereafter).

We conduct our funding and treasury activities based on corporate policies designed to minimize borrowing costs and maximize investment returns 
while maintaining the safety of the funds and appropriate levels of liquidity for our purposes. We hold cash and cash equivalents primarily in U.S. 
Dollars, with some balances held in Australian Dollars, British Pounds, Canadian Dollars, Euros, Japanese Yen, Norwegian Krone and Singapore 
Dollars.

We are exposed to market risk from foreign currency fluctuations and changes in interest rates, spot tanker market rates for vessels and bunker fuel 
prices.  We  use  foreign  currency  forward  contracts,  cross  currency  and  interest  rate  swaps  and  forward  freight  agreements  to  manage  currency, 
interest rate and spot tanker rates. Please read "Item 11 – Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Our business includes transporting oil and gas products. Regulatory changes and growing public concern about the environmental impact of climate 
change may lead to reduced demand for these products and decreased demand for our services, while increasing or creating greater incentives for 
use  of  alternative  energy  sources.  Please  read  "Item  3  -  Key  Information  -  Risk  Factors  -  Climate  change  and  greenhouse  gas  restrictions  may 
adversely impact our operations and markets" for further discussion on potential impacts on our business.

Based on our liquidity at the date of this Annual Report and the liquidity we expect to generate from operations over the following year, assuming no 
further significant decline in spot tanker rates, we expect that we will have sufficient liquidity to meet our existing liquidity needs for at least the one-
year period following the date of this Annual Report.

Teekay Parent

Teekay Parent primarily owns an equity ownership interest in the Daughter Entities, 100% ownership interests in the general partner of Teekay LNG 
and  three  FPSO  units,  provides  management  services  to  the  Daughter  Entities  and  third-parties,  and  in-chartered  one  FSO  unit  which  was 
redelivered in March 2021. Teekay Parent’s primary short-term liquidity needs are the payment of operating expenses, asset retirement obligations, 
decommissioning costs and recycling costs associated with the Petrojarl Banff FPSO unit, debt servicing costs and scheduled repayments of long-
term debt, as well as funding its other working capital requirements. Teekay Parent’s primary sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, 
cash  flows  provided  by  operations,  dividends/distributions  and  management  fees  received  from  the  Daughter  Entities  and  other  investments,  its 
undrawn credit facilities and proceeds from the sale of vessels to external parties (and in the past, to Teekay LNG, Teekay Tankers and Altera). As 
at  December  31,  2020,  Teekay  Parent’s  total  cash  and  cash  equivalents  was  $44.8  million,  compared  to  $104.2  million  at  December  31,  2019. 
Teekay  Parent’s  total  liquidity,  including  cash,  cash  equivalents  and  undrawn  credit  facilities,  was  $173.4  million  as  at  December  31,  2020, 
compared to $195.3 million as at December 31, 2019. 

In December 2020, Teekay Parent filed a continuous offering program (or COP) under which Teekay Parent may issue shares of its common stock, 
at market prices up to a maximum aggregate amount of $65.0 million. As of the date of filing this Annual Report, no shares of common stock have 
been issued under the COP.

On  October  1,  2020, Teekay  Parent  secured  a  new  equity  margin  revolving  credit  facility  maturing  in  June  2022  to  refinance  its  previous  facility 
which was scheduled to mature in December 2020. The equity margin revolving credit facility provides for aggregate potential borrowings of up to 
$150 million and is secured by common units of Teekay LNG and shares of Class A common stock of Teekay Tankers that are owned by Teekay 
Parent. Availability under the credit facility relates to the value of the common units and common stock pledged as collateral for the facility. As part 
of the refinancing, 10.75 million Teekay LNG common units were included as additional security. Should the value of the collateral decrease beyond 
a certain threshold, any outstanding amounts are to be repaid in full. As of December 31, 2020, Teekay Parent did not have any amounts drawn on 
its equity margin revolving credit facility and had $128.6 million available to be drawn based on the value of the collateral as of that date.

During 2020, Teekay Parent commenced repurchasing some of its Convertible Senior Notes due January 15, 2023 (the Convertible Notes) and its 
9.25% senior secured notes due November 2022 (or the 2022 Notes) in the open market. Teekay Parent acquired $12.8 million of the principal of 
the  Convertible  Notes  for  total  consideration  of  $10.5  million  and  $6.6  million  principal  of  its  existing  2022  Notes  for  total  consideration  of  $6.2 
million, recognizing a gain of $1.5 million in 2020, included in other loss on the Company's consolidated statements of income (loss), in relation to 
the repurchases. Please see "Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 8 – Long-Term Debt" for a description of the Convertible Notes.

On May 11, 2020, Teekay Parent and Teekay LNG agreed to eliminate all of Teekay LNG’s incentive distribution rights in exchange for the issuance 
to a subsidiary of Teekay Parent of 10.75 million newly-issued Teekay LNG common units. See Teekay LNG section below. 

In January 2020, Teekay Parent used $36.7 million to repay all remaining 2020 Notes at maturity.

57

Our Board of Directors approved the elimination of the quarterly dividend on Teekay’s common stock commencing with the first quarter of 2019. 

Based on Teekay Parent's liquidity at the date of this Annual Report and the liquidity Teekay Parent expects to generate from operations over the 
following year, Teekay Parent expects to have sufficient liquidity to meet its existing liquidity needs for at least the one-year period following the date 
of this Annual Report.

Teekay LNG

Teekay LNG's business strategy is to employ a substantial majority of its vessels on fixed-rate contracts primarily with large energy companies and 
their  transportation  subsidiaries.  Its  primary  liquidity  needs  for  2021  through  2022  include  payment  of  operating  expenses,  dry-docking 
expenditures, the funding of general working capital requirements, scheduled repayments and maturities of long-term debt and obligations related 
to finance leases, debt service costs, committed capital expenditures, its quarterly distributions, including payments of distributions on its Series A 
and Series B Preferred Units and common units, and funding any common and preferred unit repurchases it may undertake. 

Teekay LNG anticipates that its primary sources of funds for its liquidity needs will be cash flows from operations, proceeds from financings, cash 
distributions it expects to receive from its equity-accounted joint ventures, and, to a lesser extent, existing undrawn revolving credit facilities. 

Teekay  LNG's  ability  to  continue  to  expand  the  size  of  its  fleet  over  the  long  term  is  dependent  upon  its  ability  to  generate  operating  cash  flow, 
obtain long-term bank borrowings, sale-leaseback financing and other debt, as well as its ability to raise debt or equity financing through public or 
private offerings.

As at December 31, 2020, Teekay LNG's consolidated cash and cash equivalents were $206.8 million, compared to $160.2 million at December 31, 
2019.  Its  total  liquidity,  which  consists  of  cash,  cash  equivalents  and  undrawn  credit  facilities,  was  $461.6  million  as  at  December  31,  2020, 
compared to $326.4 million as at December 31, 2019. 

As at December 31, 2020, Teekay LNG had a working capital deficit of $259.1 million. This working capital deficit primarily arose from $250.5 million 
of  long-term  debt  being  classified  as  current  at  December  31,  2020  relating  to  scheduled  maturities  and  repayments  in  the  12  months  following 
December 31, 2020, including $139.9 million of NOK bonds maturing in October 2021. Teekay LNG expects to manage its working capital deficit 
primarily with net operating cash flow and expected cash distributions from its equity-accounted joint ventures, expected debt refinancings, and, if 
necessary,  availability  under  existing  undrawn  revolving  credit  facilities.  As  at  December  31,  2020,  Teekay  LNG  had  undrawn  revolving  credit 
facilities of $254.8 million. 

In December 2018, Teekay LNG announced that its general partner's board of directors had authorized a common unit repurchase program for the 
repurchase  of  up  to  $100  million  of  its  common  units.  During  2020,  Teekay  LNG  repurchased  1.4  million  common  units  for  $15.3  million  and 
associated  general  partnership  interest  of  $0.3  million. As  at April  1,  2021,  the  remaining  dollar  value  of  units  that  may  be  purchased  under  the 
program is approximately $55.8 million.

In September 2020, Teekay LNG issued, in the Norwegian bond market, NOK 1 billion in senior unsecured bonds that mature in September 2025. 
The aggregate principal amount of the bonds was equivalent to $112.0 million and all interest and principal payments have been swapped into U.S. 
Dollars at a fixed interest rate of 5.74%. Teekay LNG used the net proceeds from the bond offering to repay revolving credit facilities and for general 
corporate purposes. These bonds are listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange.

On May 11, 2020, Teekay Parent and Teekay LNG agreed to eliminate all of Teekay LNG's incentive distribution rights, which were held by Teekay 
LNG's  general  partner  (which  is  a  wholly-owned  subsidiary  of Teekay  Parent),  in  exchange  for  the  issuance  to  a  subsidiary  of Teekay  Parent  of 
10.75  million  newly-issued  common  units  of Teekay  LNG. The  terms  of  the  transaction  were  approved  by  the  conflicts  committee  of  the  general 
partner's board of directors. The conflicts committee, which is comprised of independent members of the board of directors of the general partner, 
retained  independent  legal  and  financial  advisors  to  assist  it  in  evaluating  and  negotiating  the  transaction.  Following  the  completion  of  this 
transaction on May 11, 2020, Teekay Parent now owns approximately 36 million of Teekay LNG's common units and remains the sole owner of the 
general partner, which together represents an economic interest of approximately 42% in Teekay LNG.

As part of its balanced capital allocation strategy, Teekay LNG increased its quarterly cash distributions on its common units by 32% in 2020 from 
$0.19 per common unit to $0.25 per common unit commencing with the quarterly distribution paid in May 2020. Teekay LNG has announced that it 
intends  to  increase  its  quarterly  cash  distributions  on  its  common  units  by  15%  from  $0.25  per  common  unit  to  $0.2875  per  common  unit 
commencing with the quarterly distribution to be paid in May 2021.

For at least the one-year period following the date at the date of this Annual Report, Teekay LNG expects that its existing liquidity, combined with 
the  cash  flow  it  expects  to  generate  from  its  operations  and  expects  to  receive  as  dividends  from  its  equity-accounted  joint  ventures,  will  be 
sufficient to finance the majority of its liquidity needs. Teekay LNG's remaining liquidity needs include the need to refinance or repay certain of its 
loan facilities and to repay its bonds maturing during 2021 and 2022, which it expects to complete.

Teekay Tankers

Teekay Tankers' primary sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, cash flows provided by its operations, its undrawn credit facilities, and 
its capital raised through financing transactions. 

As at December 31, 2020, Teekay Tankers' total consolidated cash and cash equivalents was $97.2 million, compared to $89.9 million, including 
cash in assets held for sale, at December 31, 2019. Teekay Tankers' total consolidated liquidity, including cash, cash equivalents, cash held for sale 
and undrawn credit facilities, was $372.6 million as at December 31, 2020, compared to $150.3 million as at December 31, 2019. Teekay Tankers' 
increased liquidity at December 31, 2020 compared to December 31, 2019 was primarily as a result of net operating cash flow generated in 2020, 

58

and net proceeds received from the sale of three Suezmax vessels and the sale of the non-US portion of its ship-to-ship support services business 
as well as its LNG terminal management business and the debt refinancing completed in January 2020 as described below. 

In August  2020, Teekay Tankers  entered  into  a  $67.4  million  term  loan  facility,  which  is  scheduled  to  mature  in August  2023,  and  which  had  an 
outstanding balance of $64.6 million as at December 31, 2020. Teekay Tankers used proceeds from the new term loan facility to repay a portion of 
the $85.1 million then outstanding under a prior term loan facility, which was scheduled to mature in 2021.

In January 2020, Teekay Tankers entered into a $532.8 million long-term revolving credit facility, which is scheduled to mature in December 2024, 
and which had an outstanding balance of $185.0 million drawn as at December 31, 2020. Teekay Tankers used proceeds from the new revolving 
credit facility to repay a portion of the $455.3 million then outstanding under its prior two revolving facilities, which were scheduled to mature in 2021 
and 2022, respectively, and two term loans facilities, which were scheduled to mature in 2020 and 2021, respectively.

In November 2019, Teekay Tankers made the determination to transition away from its previous formulaic dividend policy, which was based on a 
payout of 30 to 50 percent of its quarterly adjusted net income, to primarily focus on building net asset value through balance sheet delivering and 
reducing its cost of capital.

Teekay  Tankers'  short-term  liquidity  requirements  include  the  payment  of  operating  expenses,  dry-docking  expenditures,  debt  servicing  costs, 
scheduled  repayments  of  long-term  debt,  scheduled  repayments  of  its  obligations  related  to  finance  leases  (including  the  purchase  price  for  the 
eight  repurchase  options  declared  under  existing  finance  leases  expected  to  complete  in  May  2021  and  September  2021,  which  it  intends  to 
finance  with  future  debt  facilities  or  finance  leases  together  with  existing  cash  and  undrawn  credit  facilities),  as  well  as  funding  its  other  working 
capital requirements. Teekay Tankers' short-term charters and spot market tanker operations contribute to the volatility of its net operating cash flow, 
and  thus  may  impact  its  ability  to  generate  sufficient  cash  flows  to  meet  its  short-term  liquidity  needs.  Historically,  the  tanker  industry  has  been 
cyclical, experiencing volatility in profitability and asset values resulting from changes in the supply of, and demand for, vessel capacity. In addition, 
tanker spot markets historically have exhibited seasonal variations in charter rates. Tanker spot markets are typically stronger in the winter months 
as  a  result  of  increased  oil  consumption  in  the  northern  hemisphere  and  unpredictable  weather  patterns  that  tend  to  disrupt  vessel  scheduling. 
However, there may be years where other events override typical seasonality. This was the case in 2020 when high global oil production and a rise 
in floating storage led to strong rates in the first and second quarters of the year before giving way to much weaker rates in the third and fourth 
quarters due to lower oil demand as a result of COVID-19, a significant reduction in global oil supply, and the return of ships from floating storage.

Teekay Tankers' long-term capital needs primarily include capital expenditures and repayment of its loan facilities and obligations related to finance 
leases. Generally, Teekay Tankers expects that its primary long-term sources of funds will be cash from operations, cash balances, long-term bank 
borrowings and other debt or equity financings. Teekay Tankers expects that it will rely upon external financing sources, including bank borrowings 
and  the  issuance  of  debt  and  equity  securities,  to  fund  acquisitions  and  capital  expenditures,  including  opportunities  it  may  pursue  to  purchase 
additional vessels.

Teekay Tankers anticipates that its primary sources of funds for its short-term liquidity needs will be cash flows from operations, existing cash and 
cash equivalents, undrawn short-term and long-term borrowings, and expected proceeds from refinancing the eight vessel repurchases described 
above, which it expects will be sufficient to meet its existing liquidity needs for at least the one-year period following the date of this Annual Report. 

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our consolidated cash and cash equivalents provided by (used for) operating, financing and investing activities for 
the periods presented:

63,061 

2019

383,306 

(382,229) 

(50,391) 

Our consolidated net cash flow from operating activities fluctuates primarily as a result of changes in vessel utilization and TCE rates, changes in 
interest  rates,  fluctuations  in  working  capital  balances,  the  timing  and  amount  of  dry-docking  expenditures,  repairs  and  maintenance  activities, 
vessel additions and dispositions, and foreign currency rates. Our exposure to the spot tanker market has contributed significantly to fluctuations in 
operating cash flows historically as a result of highly cyclical spot tanker rates. In addition, up until June 2020, the production performance of certain 
of  our  FPSO  units  that  operated  under  contracts  with  a  production-based  compensation  component  has  contributed  to  fluctuations  in  operating 
cash flows. Up until June 2020, as the charter contracts of some of our FPSO units included incentives based on oil prices, changes in global oil 
prices during recent years have also impacted our operating cash flows. 

Teekay LNG and Teekay Tankers do not have control over the operations of, nor do they have any legal claim to the revenue and expenses of their 
investments in its equity-accounted joint ventures. Consequently, the cash flow generated by their investments in equity-accounted joint ventures 
may not be available for use by Teekay LNG and Teekay Tankers in the period that such cash flows are generated. 

59

Consolidated net cash flow from operating activities increased to $984.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, from $383.3 million for the 
year ended December 31, 2019. This increase was primarily due to a $323.9 million increase in direct financing lease payments received, which 
mainly  related  to  payments  received  by  Teekay  LNG  upon  the  sale  of  the  WilForce  and  WilPride  LNG  carriers  in  January  2020  and  payment 
received by Teekay Parent in April 2020 as part of the bareboat charter with Britoil Limited (or BP) for the Petrojarl Foinaven FPSO. There was also 
an increase of $118.8 million in income from operations (before depreciation, amortization, write-downs and gain on commencement of sales-type 
lease) of our businesses. For further discussion of changes in income from vessel operations from our businesses, please read “Item 5 – Operating 
and  Financial  Review  and  Prospects:  Management’s  Discussion  and  Analysis  of  Financial  Condition  and  Results  of  Operations  –  Recent 
Developments and Results of Operations.” In addition, during 2020, there was a $104.0 million increase in cash flows from changes to non-cash 
working  capital,  distributions  from  equity-accounted  joint  ventures  increased  by  $31.5  million,  expenditures  for  dry  docking  decreased  by  $30.7 
million and interest expense, including realized losses on interest rate swaps and cross currency swaps, decreased by a net amount of $9.4 million. 
These increases to operating cash flows were partially offset by asset retirement obligation expenditures of $17.5 million during 2020 relating to the 
Petrojarl Banff FPSO unit.

Financing Cash Flows

We use our credit facilities to partially finance capital expenditures. Occasionally, we will use revolving credit facilities to finance these expenditures 
until  longer-term  financing  is  obtained,  at  which  time  we  typically  use  all  or  a  portion  of  the  proceeds  from  the  longer-term  financings  to  prepay 
outstanding amounts under the revolving credit facilities. We actively manage the maturity profile of our outstanding financing arrangements. Our 
net payments on long-term debt, which are the proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt, net of debt issuance costs and prepayments of long-
term  debt,  were  $570.6  million  in  2020,  compared  to  $277.3  million  in  2019.  Scheduled  debt  repayments  increased  by  $72.2  million  in  2020 
compared to 2019. 

Teekay LNG received $317.8 million of net proceeds from the sale-leaseback financing transactions for the Yamal Spirit and Torben Spirit for the 
year ended December 31, 2019. Teekay Tankers received $63.7 million from sale-leaseback financing transactions completed for the year ended 
December 31, 2019.

Investing Cash Flows

During  2020,  we  incurred  capital  expenditures  for  vessels  and  equipment  of  $26.5  million,  primarily  for  capitalized  vessel  modifications.  During 
2020, Teekay Tankers received proceeds of $25.0 million from the sale of the non-US portion of its ship-to-ship support services business as well as 
its LNG terminal management business, and also received proceeds on the sale of three Suezmax tankers of $60.9 million.

During 2019, we received $100 million from Brookfield for the sale of our remaining interests in Altera. We incurred capital expenditures for vessels 
and  equipment  of  $109.5  million  primarily  for  capitalized  vessel  modifications  and  shipyard  construction  installment  payments  in  Teekay  LNG. 
Teekay  LNG  received  proceeds  of  $11.5  million  from  the  sale  of  the  Alexander  Spirit  and  contributed  $72.4  million  to  its  equity-accounted  joint 
ventures and loans to joint ventures for the year ended December 31, 2019, primarily to fund project expenditures in the Yamal LNG Joint Venture 
and the Bahrain LNG Joint Venture. During 2019, Teekay Tankers received proceeds of $19.6 million related to the sale of one Suezmax tanker.

Euro-denominated  and  NOK-denominated  obligations  are  presented  in  U.S.  Dollars  and  have  been  converted  using  the  prevailing  exchange  rate  as  of
December 31, 2020.

Excludes  expected  interest  payments  of  $15.8  million  (2021),  $11.3  million  (2022),  $8.9  million  (2023),  $6.4  million  (2024)  and  $3.2  million  (2025).  Expected
interest payments are based on NIBOR at December 31, 2020, plus margins that range up to 6.0%, as well as the prevailing U.S. Dollar/NOK exchange rate as of 
December  31,  2020. The  expected  interest  payments  do  not  reflect  the  effect  of  the  related  cross  currency  swaps  that Teekay  LNG  has  used  as  an  economic 
hedge of its foreign exchange and interest rate exposure associated with its NOK-denominated long-term debt.

(3) Gives effect to the debt refinancing completed in February 2021, excludes expected interest payments of $23.6 million (2021), $20.6 million (2022), $17.6 million 
(2023),  $15.1  million  (2024),  $12.9  million  (2025)  and  $6.0  million  (beyond  2025).  Expected  interest  payments  are  based  on  existing  interest  rates  (fixed-rate
loans),  LIBOR  or  EURIBOR  at  December  31,  2020,  plus  margins  on  debt  that  has  been  drawn  that  range  up  to  3.25%  (variable-rate  loans),  as  well  as  the 
prevailing U.S. Dollar/Euro exchange rate as of December 31, 2020. The expected interest payments do not reflect the effect of related interest rate swaps that 
Teekay  LNG  has  used  as  an  economic  hedge  for  certain  of  its  variable-rate  debt.  In  addition,  the  above  table  does  not  reflect  scheduled  debt  repayments  in 
Teekay LNG's equity-accounted joint ventures.

Includes, in addition to lease payments, amounts Teekay LNG are required to pay to purchase the leased vessels at the end of their respective lease terms.

Teekay LNG has corresponding leases whereby it is the lessor and expects to receive approximately $217.8 million under those leases from 2021 to 2029.

The Bahrain LNG Joint Venture, in which Teekay LNG has a 30% ownership interest, has an LNG receiving and regasification terminal in Bahrain. The Bahrain
LNG Joint Venture completed the mechanical construction and commissioning of the Bahrain terminal in late-2019 and began receiving terminal use payments in 
early-2020 under its 20-year agreement with NOGA. As at December 31, 2020, Teekay LNG's 30% share of the estimated remaining costs included in the table
above is $11.3 million, of which the Bahrain LNG Joint Venture has secured undrawn debt financing of $7 million related to its proportionate share.

In June 2019, Teekay LNG entered into an agreement with a contractor to supply reliquefaction equipment on certain of its LNG carriers in 2021 and 2022, for an 
estimated installed cost of $59.5 million. As at December 31, 2020, the estimated remaining cost of this installation is $40.3 million.

(7)

Excludes expected interest payments of $6.5 million (2021), $6.0 million (2022), $5.4 million (2023) and $2.4 million (2024). Expected interest payments are based 
on the existing interest rates for variable-rate loans at LIBOR plus margins that range from 2.25% to 3.5% at December 31, 2020. The expected interest payments
do not reflect the effect of the related interest rate swap that Teekay Tankers has used to hedge certain of its floating-rate debt.

(8) Gives  effect  to  the  purchase  options  declared  by  Teekay  Tankers  in  November  2020  to  acquire  two  Suezmax  tankers  in  May  2021  under  the  sale-leaseback 
arrangements described in "Item 18 - Financial Statements: Note 10 - Obligations Related to Finance Leases"; excludes imputed interest payments of $24.6 million
(2021), $20.2 million (2022), $18.4 million (2023), $16.4 million (2024), $14.2 million (2025) and $27.0 million (thereafter).

(9)

In March 2021, Teekay Tankers declared purchase options to acquire six Aframax tankers in September 2021 for a total cost of $128.8 million, under the sale-
leaseback arrangements described in "Item 18 - Financial Statements: Note 10 - Operating Leases and Obligations Related to Finance Leases". Giving effect to
this  transaction,  the  scheduled  repayments  of  obligations  related  to  finance  leases,  excluding  imputed  interest  payments,  are  $201.2  million  (2021),  $12.3 
million(2022), $13.1 million (2023), $13.9 million (2024), $14.8 million (2025) and $104.7 million (thereafter).

Includes one newbuilding Aframax tanker expected to be delivered to Teekay Tankers in late-2022 under a seven-year time charter-in contract.

(11) Excludes payments required if Teekay Tankers exercise all options to extend the terms of in-chartered leases signed as of December 31, 2020. If Teekay Tankers 
exercise all options to extend the terms of signed in-chartered leases, it expects total payments of $13.4 million (2021), $8.6 million (2022), $8.4 million (2023),
$6.8 million (2024), $6.8 million (2025) and $47.9 million (thereafter).

(12) Excludes expected interest payments of $28.1 million (2021), $16.9 million (2022) and $2.8 million (2023). Expected interest payments are based on the existing
interest rate for fixed-rate loans at 8.5% and 9.25%, and the existing interest rate for the variable-rate loan that is based on LIBOR plus a margin which was 4.25% 
as at December 31, 2020. The expected interest payments do not reflect the effect of related interest rate swap that Teekay Parent uses as an economic hedge of 
certain of its variable rate debt. 

(13) Teekay Parent in-chartered one FSO unit from Altera, which was on a back-to-back out-charter to a third party. In the first quarter of 2021, the out-charter contract
was novated to Altera and the in-charter contract terminated at the same time. Giving effect to the termination, our commitments for the FSO unit are $1.5 million 
during 2021 and $nil thereafter instead of the amounts shown in the table above.

(14) Teekay Parent has an asset retirement obligation (or ARO) relating to the subsea production facility associated with the Petrojarl Banff FPSO unit operating in the 
North Sea. The obligation generally involves the costs associated with the restoration of the environment surrounding the facility and removal and disposal of all
production  equipment.  We  expect  that  the ARO  will  be  covered  in  part  by  contractual  payments  of  approximately  $9.3  million,  presented  in  other  non-current 
assets on our consolidated balance sheet, to be received from the customer.

(15) Teekay Parent recognized an ARO relating to the clean-up and disposal of the Petrojarl Foinaven FPSO unit. This obligation is expected to be settled at the end of 
the bareboat charter, currently assumed to be in 2025. Teekay Parent is entitled to receive $11.6 million from the charterer at the end of the bareboat charter, which 
is  currently  expected  to  cover  the  costs  of  the  ARO.  The  present  value  of  this  receivable  was  $8.4  million  as  at  December  31,  2020  and  is  included  in  net
investments in direct financing leases and sales-type leases, net - non-current on our consolidated balance sheet. The present value of the estimated Petrojarl
Foinaven ARO was $7.4 million as at December 31, 2020.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on our financial condition, 
changes  in  financial  condition,  revenues  or  expenses,  results  of  operations,  liquidity,  capital  expenditures  or  capital  resources.  Our  equity-
accounted investments are described in “Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 22 – Equity-accounted Investments.”

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

We  prepare  our  consolidated  financial  statements  in  accordance  with  GAAP,  which  requires  us  to  make  estimates  in  the  application  of  our 
accounting  policies  based  on  our  best  assumptions,  judgments  and  opinions.  On  a  regular  basis,  management  reviews  our  accounting  policies, 
assumptions,  estimates  and  judgments  to  ensure  that  our  consolidated  financial  statements  are  presented  fairly  and  in  accordance  with  GAAP. 
However,  because  future  events  and  their  effects  cannot  be  determined  with  certainty,  actual  results  could  differ  from  our  assumptions  and 
estimates, and such differences could be material. Accounting estimates and assumptions discussed in this section are those that we consider to 
be the most critical to an understanding of our financial statements because they inherently involve significant judgments and uncertainties. For a 
further description of our material accounting policies, please read “Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting 
Policies.”

Revenue Recognition

Description.  We  recognize  revenue  from  voyage  charters  on  either  a  load-to-discharge  or  discharge-to-discharge  basis.  Voyage  revenues  are 
recognized ratably from the beginning of when product is loaded to when it is discharged if using a load-to-discharge basis, or from when product is 
discharged  (unloaded)  at  the  end  of  the  prior  voyage  to  when  it  is  discharged  after  the  current  voyage,  if  using  a  discharge-to-discharge  basis. 
However, we do not begin recognizing voyage revenue for any of our vessels until a charter has been agreed to by the customer and us, even if the 
vessel has discharged its cargo and is sailing to the anticipated load port on its next voyage. 

Judgments and Uncertainties. Whether to use the load-to-discharge basis or the discharge-to-discharge basis depends on whether the customer 
directs the use of the vessel throughout the period of use, pursuant to the terms of the voyage charter. This is a matter of judgment. However, we 
believe that if the customer has the right to direct the vessel to different load and discharge ports, among other things, a voyage charter contract 
contains a lease, and the lease term begins on the later of the vessel’s last discharge or inception of the voyage charter contract. As such, in this 
case revenue is recognized on a discharge-to-discharge basis. Otherwise, it is recognized on a load-to-discharge basis. 

Effect if Actual Results Differ from Assumptions. If our assessment of whether the customer directs the use of the vessel throughout the period of 
use is not consistent with actual results, then the period over which voyage revenue is recognized would be different and as such our revenues 
could be overstated or understated for any given period by the amount of such difference.

Contingencies

Description. We may, from time to time, be involved in legal proceedings, claims or other situations involving uncertainty as to a possible loss, such 
as uncertain tax positions, that will ultimately be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. We accrue a provision for such loss 
contingencies if it is probable as of the reporting date, that an asset had been impaired or a liability incurred, based in information available prior to 
the issuance of the consolidated financial statements, and if the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. 

Judgments  and  Uncertainties.  The  amount  of  loss  contingencies  recognized  as  a  liability  in  our  consolidated  financial  statements  requires 
management to make significant estimates that may at times be inherently difficult to make given the uncertainties involved, including estimates of 
whether  it  is  probable  an  asset  had  been  impaired  or  a  liability  incurred,  the  amount  of  possible  losses,  the  ability  to  recover  some  or  all  of  the 
possible loss through insurance coverage, amongst others. Our loss contingencies are disclosed in more detail in "Item 18 – Financial Statements: 
Note 16d – Commitments and Contingencies" and "Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 21 – Income Taxes".

62

Effect if Actual Results Differ from Assumptions. Our net income (loss) could be overstated or understated for any given period to the extent actual 
losses incurred, following resolution of our contingencies, are different than our prior estimates of recognized loss contingencies.

Vessel Lives and Depreciation

Description.  The  carrying  value  of  each  of  our  vessels  represents  its  original  cost  at  the  time  of  delivery  or  purchase  less  depreciation  and 
impairment charges. We depreciate the original cost, less an estimated residual value, of our vessels on a straight-line basis over each vessel’s 
estimated useful life. The carrying values of our vessels may not represent their market value at any point in time because the market  prices of 
second-hand  vessels  tend  to  fluctuate  with  changes  in  charter  rates,  the  cost  of  newbuildings,  among  other  factors.  Both  charter  rates  and 
newbuilding costs tend to be cyclical in nature.

Judgments  and  Uncertainties.  Depreciation  is  calculated  using  an  estimated  useful  life  of  25  years  for  tankers  carrying  crude  oil  and  refined 
product,  30  years  for  LPG  carriers  and  35  years  for  LNG  carriers,  commencing  the  date  the  vessel  is  delivered  from  the  shipyard,  or  a  shorter 
period if regulations prevent us from operating the vessels for those periods of time. The Company’s current FPSO units are depreciated using an 
initial estimated useful life of 25 years commencing the date the unit is installed at the oil field and is in a condition that is ready to operate, or a 
shorter period if commercial considerations dictate otherwise. The estimated useful life of our vessels involves an element of judgment, which takes 
into account design life, commercial considerations and regulatory restrictions.

Effect  if  Actual  Results  Differ  from  Assumptions. The  actual  life  of  a  vessel  may  be  different  than  the  estimated  useful  life,  with  a  shorter  actual 
useful life resulting in an increase in depreciation expense and potentially resulting in an impairment loss. A longer actual useful life will result in a 
decrease in depreciation expense.

Vessel Lives and Impairment

Description. We review vessels and equipment for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset, including 
the carrying value of the charter contract, if any, under which the vessel is employed, may not be recoverable. This occurs when the asset’s carrying 
value  is  greater  than  the  future  undiscounted  cash  flows  the  asset  is  expected  to  generate  over  its  remaining  useful  life.  If  the  estimated  future 
undiscounted cash flows of an asset exceed the asset’s carrying value, no impairment is recognized even though the fair value of the asset may be 
lower than its carrying value. If the estimated future undiscounted cash flows of an asset are less than the asset’s carrying value and the fair value 
of  the  asset  is  less  than  its  carrying  value,  the  asset  is  written  down  to  its  fair  value.  Fair  value  is  determined  based  on  appraised  values  or 
discounted cash flows. In cases where an active second-hand sale and purchase market exists, an appraised value is generally  the amount  we 
would expect to receive if we were to sell the vessel. The appraised values are provided by third parties where available or prepared by us based 
on  second-hand  sale  and  purchase  market  data.  In  cases  where  an  active  second-hand  sale  and  purchase  market  does  not  exist,  or  in  certain 
other cases, fair value is calculated as the net present value of estimated future cash flows, which, in certain circumstances, will approximate the 
estimated market value of the vessel. For a vessel under charter, the discounted cash flows from that vessel may exceed or be less than its market 
value, as market values may assume the vessel is not employed on an existing charter.

Judgments and Uncertainties. Our estimates of future undiscounted cash flows used to determine whether a vessel's carrying value is recoverable 
involves  assumptions  about  future  charter  rates,  vessel  utilization,  operating  expenses,  dry-docking  expenditures,  vessel  residual  values, 
redeployment  assumptions  for  vessels  on  long-term  charter,  the  probability  of  the  vessels  being  sold  and  the  remaining  estimated  life  of  our 
vessels. Our estimated charter rates are based on rates under existing vessel contracts and market rates at which we expect we can re-charter our 
vessels.  For  conventional  tankers,  such  market  rates  for  the  first  three  years  are  based  on  prevailing  market  three-year  time-charter  rates  and 
thereafter,  a  ten-year  historical  average  of  actual  spot  charter  rates  earned  by  our  vessels,  adjusted  to  exclude  years  which  management  has 
determined  are  outliers.  We  consider  years  that  have  been  impacted  by  rare  events  or  circumstances  that  have  distorted  the  historical  ten-year 
trailing  average  to  such  a  degree  that  this  average  will  not  be  representative  of  what  a  reasonable  outlook  would  be  if  we  did  not  exclude  such 
years as outliers. We have identified such outlier events or circumstances in the current ten-year historical period as at December 31, 2020, which 
has resulted in the exclusion of the three years from 2011 to 2013 from our averages. Our estimated charter rates are also discounted for the years 
when the vessel age is 15 years and older, as compared to the estimated charter rates for years when the vessel is younger than 15 years. Such 
discounts reflect expectations of lower utilization and higher fuel consumption for older vessels. During the fourth quarter of 2020, we determined 
that  a  five-year  historical  average  of  actual  spot  charter  rates  earned  by  our  vessels  resulted  in  an  estimate  of  future  charter  rates  that  was 
inconsistent with our forward view of the tanker market. As such, we changed our historical reference period used to estimate future charter rate 
rates  from  the  average  of  the  most  recent  five  historical  years  to  the  average  of  the  most  recent  ten  historical  years,  adjusted  for  years  which 
management has determined as outliers. For LNG carriers, market rates at which we expect we can re-charter such vessels are based on a ten-
year historical industry average of spot charter rates taking into account the propulsion type and size of the vessel, except for LNG carriers with a 
steam  turbine  propulsion  system  in  which  case  a  five-year  historical  industry  average  is  used  due  to  this  type  of  vessel  being  less  efficient  than 
newer vessels and management viewing the five-year historical average as more representative of the future outlook for this type of vessel. Our 
estimates of vessel utilization, including estimated off-hire time, are based on historical experience. Our estimates of operating expenses and dry-
docking expenditures are based on historical operating and dry-docking costs and our expectations of future inflation and operating requirements. 
Vessel residual values are a product of a vessel’s lightweight tonnage and an estimated scrap rate. The probability of the vessel being sold is based 
on our current plans and expectations. The remaining estimated lives of our vessels used in our estimates of future cash flows are consistent with 
those used in the calculations of depreciation.

In  our  experience,  certain  assumptions  relating  to  our  estimates  of  future  cash  flows  are  more  predictable  by  their  nature,  including  estimated 
revenue under existing contract terms, ongoing operating costs and remaining vessel life. Certain assumptions relating to our estimates of future 
cash flows require more judgment and are inherently less predictable, such as future charter rates beyond the firm period of existing contracts, the 
probability  and  timing  of  vessels  being  sold  and  vessel  residual  values,  due  to  factors  such  as  the  volatility  in  vessel  charter  rates  and  vessel 
values. We believe that the assumptions used to estimate future cash flows of our vessels are reasonable at the time they are made. We can make 
no assurances, however, as to whether our estimates of future cash flows, particularly future vessel charter rates or vessel values, will be accurate.

63

Effect if Actual Results Differ from Assumptions. If we conclude that a vessel or equipment is impaired, we recognize a loss in an amount equal to 
the excess of the carrying value of the asset over its fair value at the date of impairment. The written-down amount becomes the new lower cost 
basis  and  will  result  in  a  lower  annual  depreciation  expense  in  periods  subsequent  to  the  vessel  impairment.  Consequently,  any  changes  in  our 
estimates  of  future  undiscounted  cash  flows  may  result  in  a  different  conclusion  as  to  whether  a  vessel  or  equipment  is  impaired,  leading  to  a 
different impairment amount, including no impairment, and a different future annual depreciation expense.

The following table presents, by type of vessel, the aggregate market values and carrying values of certain of our vessels that we have determined 
have a market value that may be less than their carrying values as of December 31, 2020. We have excluded those assets operating on charter 
contracts where the remaining term is significant and the estimated future undiscounted cash flows relating to such charter contracts are sufficiently 
greater than the carrying value of the vessels such that we consider it unlikely that an impairment would be recognized in 2021. While the market 
values of these vessels may be below their carrying values, no impairment has been recognized on any of these vessels as the estimated future 
undiscounted cash flows relating to such vessels are greater than their carrying values. The vessels included in the following table generally include 
those vessels employed on single-voyage, or “spot” charters, as well as those vessels near the end of existing charter contracts.

We would consider the vessels reflected in the following table to be at a higher risk of impairment compared to other vessels in our fleet. This table 
is disaggregated for vessels which have estimated future undiscounted cash flows that are marginally or significantly greater than their respective 
carrying values. The recognition of an impairment in the future may be more likely for those vessels that have estimated future undiscounted cash 
marginally greater than their respective carrying values. Vessels with estimated future cash flows significantly greater than their respective carrying 
values would not likely be impaired in the next 12 months unless they are disposed of. In deciding whether to dispose of a vessel, we determine 
whether it is economically preferable to sell the vessel or continue to operate it. This assessment includes an estimate of the net proceeds expected 
to  be  received  if  the  vessel  is  sold  in  its  existing  condition  compared  to  the  present  value  of  the  vessel’s  estimated  future  cash  flows.  Such 
estimates  are  based  on  the  terms  of  the  existing  charter,  charter  market  outlook,  future  vessel  values,  and  estimated  operating  costs,  given  a 
vessel’s type, condition and age.

(1) Market values are determined in reference to second-hand market comparables. Since vessel values can be volatile, our estimates of market value shown above

may not be indicative of either the current or future prices we could obtain if we sold any of the vessels.

(2) Undiscounted cash flows for these vessels are marginally greater than their carrying values.

(3) Undiscounted cash flows for these vessels are significantly greater than their carrying values. There were no LNG carriers whose undiscounted cash flows were

marginally greater than their respective carrying values.

The table above excludes Teekay LNG's seven wholly-owned multi-gas carriers whose aggregate estimated market value and aggregate carrying 
value  at  December  31,  2020  were  $105.8  million  and  $103.1  million,  respectively.  Such  vessels  are  at  a  higher  risk  of  impairment  due  to  their 
design and operating performance.

Our estimates of future cash flows are more sensitive to changes in certain assumptions, such as future charter rates. For example, if at December 
31,  2020  the  10-year  historical  average  of  actual  spot  charter  rates  earned  by  our  conventional  tankers,  adjusted  to  exclude  years  which 
management has determined as outliers, was increased by 5% or greater, then we would not have written down any of the four vessels we wrote 
down in the fourth quarter of 2020 by $21.9 million to their estimated fair value at such date. In addition, for those 18 conventional tankers in the 
table  above  where  the  undiscounted  cash  flows  are  marginally  greater  than  the  carrying  values,  if  at  December  31,  2020  the  10-year  historical 
average of actual spot charter rates earned by our conventional tankers, adjusted to exclude years which management has determined as outliers, 
was  reduced  by  either  5%  or  10%,  8  or  17,  respectively,  of  the  18  conventional  tankers  would  have  been  impaired,  resulting  in  an  additional 
impairment  of  $136.1  million  or  $220.3  million,  respectively.  For  those  26  conventional  tankers  in  the  table  above  where  the  undiscounted  cash 
flows are significantly greater than the carrying values, even if, at December 31, 2020, the 10-year historical average of actual spot charter rates 
earned by our conventional tankers, adjusted to exclude years which management has determined as outliers, was reduced by 10%, none of those 
26 vessels would be impaired. For the four LNG carriers in the table above, even if, at December 31, 2020, our estimates of future charter rates 
beyond the firm period of existing contracts was reduced by 10%, none of those four vessels would be impaired.

Credit Losses

In  June  2016,  the  Financial Accounting  Standards  Board  (or  FASB)  issued Accounting  Standards  Update  2016-13,  Financial  Instruments  Credit 
Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (or ASU 2016-13). ASU 2016-13 introduced a new credit loss methodology, which 
requires  earlier  recognition  of  credit  losses,  while  providing  additional  transparency  about  credit  risk. This  new  credit  loss  methodology  utilizes  a 
lifetime  “expected  credit  loss”  measurement  objective  for  the  recognition  of  credit  losses  for  loans,  held-to-maturity  debt  securities  and  other 
receivables at the time the financial asset is originated or acquired. The expected credit losses are subsequently adjusted each period for changes 
in expected lifetime credit losses. This methodology replaced multiple impairment methods under previous GAAP for these types of assets, which 
generally required that a loss be incurred before it was recognized. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020. A substantial majority 
of our exposure to potential credit losses relates to Teekay LNG's direct financing and sales-type leases, including those within its equity-accounted 
joint  ventures.  See  "Item  18  –  Financial  Statements:  Note  13  -  Financial  Instruments"  for  a  description  of  these  direct  financing  and  sales-type 
leases. 

64

Judgments and Uncertainties. ASU 2016-13 gives entities the flexibility to select an appropriate method to measure the estimate of expected credit 
losses. That is, entities are permitted to use estimation techniques that are practical and relevant to their circumstances, as long as they are applied 
consistently  over  time  and  aim  to  faithfully  estimate  expected  credit  losses.  We  have  determined  the  credit  loss  provision  related  to  the  lease 
receivable component of the net investment in direct financing and sales-type leases using an internal historical loss rate method. We concluded 
that using a loss rate method which is primarily based on internal historical data is inherently more representative than primarily using external data, 
which may include all industries, or all oil and gas or all marine transportation, which are not as comparable. In addition, a substantial majority of our 
customers are private single-purpose entities or subsidiaries or joint ventures of larger listed-entities that do not publish financial information nor do 
they have published credit ratings determined by credit rating agencies. In the limited circumstances where relevant and reliable external data is 
available and where judged to be appropriate, we have considered such data in making adjustments to our internally derived loss rate. Judgment is 
required to determine the applicability and reliability of the external data used. The credit loss provision for the residual value component is based 
on the current estimated fair value of the vessel as depreciated to the end of the charter contract as compared to the expected carrying value, with 
such  potential  gain  or  loss  on  maturity  being  included  in  the  credit  loss  provision  in  increasing  magnitude  on  a  straight-line  basis  the  closer  the 
contract is to its maturity. Given the volatility in vessel values, the selection of the method to estimate the credit loss provision for the residual value 
component involves judgment. 

We  believe  that  the  assumptions  used  to  estimate  our  expected  credit  losses  are  reasonable  at  the  time  they  are  made.  We  can  make  no 
assurances, however, as to whether our estimates will be accurate.

In addition to the judgment used in selecting the methods to measure the credit loss provision, there is also judgment used in applying the methods. 
We  have  used  judgment  in  determining  whether  or  not  the  risk  characteristics  of  a  specific  direct  financing  lease  or  sales-type  lease  at  the 
measurement  date  are  consistent  with  those  used  to  measure  the  internal  historical  loss  rate,  and  to  determine  whether  we  expect  current 
conditions  and  reasonable  and  supportable  forecasts  to  differ  from  the  conditions  that  existed  to  measure  the  internal  historical  loss  rate.  In 
addition,  judgment  has  been  used  to  determine  the  internal  historical  loss  rate,  as  it  is  based  in  part  on  estimates  of  the  occurrence  or  non-
occurrence of future events which will dictate the amount of recoveries earned or additional losses incurred associated with known losses incurred 
to  date.  Judgment  has  also  been  used  to  determine  the  adjustment  required  to  the  internal  historical  loss  rate,  in  those  circumstances  where 
relevant  and  reliable  external  data  was  identified.  Furthermore,  the  current  estimated  fair  value  of  the  vessels  used  in  our  estimate  of  expected 
credit losses for direct financing and sales-type leases has been determined based on second-hand market comparable values. Judgment is used 
when vessels sold are different in age, size and technical specifications compared to our vessels. Since vessel values can be volatile, our estimates 
may not be indicative of either the current or future prices we could obtain if we sold any of the vessels.

Effect  if  Actual  Results  Differ  from  Assumptions.  To  the  extent  the  methods,  and  judgments  used  in  applying  these  methods,  that  we  use  to 
measure our estimate of expected credit losses results in a credit loss provision that is different from actual results, our credit loss provision at the 
end  of  each  period  and  the  change  in  the  credit  loss  provision  in  each  period  will  be  different  than  what  would  have  otherwise  been.  More 
specifically,  if  the  judgments  used  in  determining  our  unadjusted  historical  loss  rate  for  our  direct  financing  and  sales-type  leases  results  were 
changed and such changes resulted in a 5% increase (decrease) to our unadjusted historical loss rate, our 2020 net income before non-controlling 
interest and total equity would have both decreased (increased) by $1.9 million. In addition, if we had increased (decreased) our estimates of the 
residual value of the vessels by 5%, our 2020 net income before non-controlling interest and total equity would have both increased (decreased) by 
$9.9 million.

Valuation of Derivative Financial Instruments

Description. Our risk management policies permit the use of derivative financial instruments to manage foreign currency fluctuation, interest rate, 
bunker fuel price and spot tanker market rate risk. See “Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 15 – Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. 
Changes  in  fair  value  of  derivative  financial  instruments  that  are  not  designated  as  cash  flow  hedges  for  accounting  purposes  are  recognized  in 
earnings in the consolidated statements of income (loss). Changes in fair value of derivative financial instruments that are designated as cash flow 
hedges for accounting purposes are recorded in other comprehensive income and are reclassified to earnings in the consolidated statements of 
income  (loss)  when  the  hedged  transaction  is  reflected  in  earnings.  During  the  life  of  the  hedge,  we  formally  assess  whether  each  derivative 
designated  as  a  hedging  instrument  continues  to  be  highly  effective  in  offsetting  changes  in  the  fair  value  or  cash  flows  of  hedged  items.  If  we 
determine that a hedge has ceased to be highly effective, we will discontinue hedge accounting prospectively.

Judgments  and  Uncertainties. A  substantial  majority  of  the  fair  value  of  our  derivative  instruments  and  the  change  in  fair  value  of  our  derivative 
instruments  from  period  to  period  result  from  our  use  of  interest  rate  and  cross  currency  swap  agreements.  The  fair  value  of  our  derivative 
instruments  is  the  estimated  amount  that  we  would  receive  or  pay  to  terminate  the  agreements  in  an  arm’s  length  transaction  under  normal 
business conditions at the reporting date, taking into account current interest rates, foreign exchange rates and the current credit worthiness of us 
and the swap counterparties. The estimated amount for interest rate and cross currency swaps is the present value of estimated future cash flows, 
being  equal  to  the  difference  between  the  benchmark  interest  rate  and  the  fixed  rate  in  the  interest  rate  and  cross  currency  swap  agreement, 
multiplied by the notional principal amount of the interest rate and cross currency swap agreement at each interest reset date. 

The fair value of our interest rate and cross currency swap agreements at the end of each period is most significantly impacted by the interest rate 
implied  by  the  benchmark  interest  rate  yield  curve,  including  its  relative  steepness.  Interest  rates  have  experienced  significant  volatility  in  recent 
years in both the short and long-term. While the fair value of our interest rate swap agreements is typically more sensitive to changes in short-term 
rates, significant changes in the long-term benchmark interest rate and foreign currency exchange rates also materially impact our interest rate and 
cross currency swap agreements.

The  fair  value  of  our  interest  rate  swap  agreements  is  also  impacted  by  changes  in  our  specific  credit  risk  included  in  the  discount  factor.  We 
discount our interest rate swap agreements with reference to the credit default swap spreads of similarly rated global industrial companies and by 
considering  any  underlying  collateral. The  process  of  determining  credit  worthiness  requires  significant  judgment  in  determining  which  source  of 
credit risk information most closely matches our risk profile.

The benchmark interest rate yield curve and our specific credit risk are expected to vary over the life of the interest rate and cross currency swap 
agreements. The  larger  the  notional  amount  of  the  interest  rate  and  cross  currency  swap  agreements  outstanding  and  the  longer  the  remaining 

65

duration of the interest rate and cross currency swap agreements, the larger the impact of any variability in these factors will be on the fair value of 
our interest rate and cross currency swaps. We economically hedge the interest rate exposure on a significant amount of our long-term debt and for 
long durations. As such, we have historically experienced, and we expect to continue to experience, material variations in the period-to-period fair 
value of our derivative instruments.

Effect  if  Actual  Results  Differ  from  Assumptions.  Although  we  measure  the  fair  value  of  our  derivative  instruments  utilizing  the  inputs  and 
assumptions described above, if we were to terminate the agreements at the reporting date, the amount we would pay or receive to terminate the 
derivative instruments may differ from our estimate of fair value. If the estimated fair value differs from the actual termination amount, an adjustment 
to the carrying amount of the applicable derivative asset or liability would be recognized in earnings for the current period. Such adjustments could 
be  material.  See  “Item  18  –  Financial  Statements:  Note  15  –  Derivative  Instruments  and  Hedging Activities”  for  the  effects  on  the  change  in  fair 
value of our derivative instruments on our consolidated statements of income (loss).

Taxes

Description. The expenses we recognize relating to taxes are based on our income, statutory tax rates and our interpretations of the tax regulations 
in  the  various  jurisdictions  in  which  we  operate.  We  review  our  tax  positions  quarterly  and  adjust  the  balances  as  new  information  becomes 
available.

Judgments and Uncertainties. We record a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be 
realized. The future realization of deferred tax assets depends on the existence of sufficient taxable income of the appropriate character in either 
the  carryback  or  carryforward  period.  This  analysis  requires,  among  other  things,  the  use  of  estimates  and  projections  in  determining  future 
reversals of temporary differences, forecasts of future profitability and evaluating potential tax-planning strategies. In addition, we recognize the tax 
benefits of uncertain tax positions only if it is more-likely-than-not that a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return will be sustained 
upon examination by the taxing authorities, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the 
position. Tax laws are complex and subject to different interpretations by the taxpayer and respective governmental taxing authorities. Significant 
judgment is required in evaluating uncertainties.

Effect  if  Actual  Results  Differ  from  Assumptions.  If  we  determined  that  we  were  able  to  realize  a  net  deferred  tax  asset  in  the  future  or  if  an 
uncertain  tax  position  was  sustained  upon  examination,  and  such  amount  was  in  excess  of  the  net  amount  previously  recognized,  we  would 
increase our net income in the period such determination was made. Likewise, if we determined that we were not able to realize all or a part of our 
deferred tax asset in the future or if an uncertain tax position was not sustained upon examination, we would decrease our net income in the period 
such determination was made. See “Item 18 - Financial Statements: Note 21 - Income Taxes”.

Impairment of Investments in Equity-Accounted Joint Ventures. 

Description. We evaluate our investments in equity-accounted joint ventures for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying 
value of such investments may have experienced an other-than-temporary decline in value below its carrying value. If this is the case, the carrying 
value of the investment in equity-accounted joint venture is written down to its estimated fair value and the resulting impairment is recognized in our 
consolidated statement of income (loss). 

Judgments  and  Uncertainties.  The  process  of  evaluating  the  potential  impairment  of  investments  in  equity-accounted  joint  ventures  requires 
significant  judgment  in  determining  whether  the  estimated  value  of  an  investment  in  an  equity-accounted  joint  venture  has  declined  below  its 
carrying value and if so, whether this is an other-than-temporary decline in value. Such judgments include, among other things, estimates of future 
charter rates, operating expenses and vessel values, timing of vessels sales and deliveries and future growth prospects. In determining whether an 
impairment of an equity method investment is other-than-temporary, factors to consider include the length of time and extent to which the fair value 
of  the  investment  is  less  than  its  carrying  value;  the  financial  condition  and  near-term  prospects  of  the  equity  method  investee,  including  recent 
operating losses or specific events that may negatively influence the future earnings potential of the investee; and the intent and ability of the holder 
to retain its investment in the investee for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in market value. As at December 31, 2020, 
we conducted an impairment test for Teekay LNG's investment in the MALT Joint Venture and determined that its estimated fair value had declined 
below its carrying value, although it was determined that such decline was not other-than-temporary. 

Effect if Actual Results Differ from Assumptions. If we determine that an investment in an equity-accounted joint venture is impaired, we recognize a 
loss in an amount equal to the excess of the carrying value of the investment over its estimated fair value at the date of impairment. The written-
down  amount  becomes  the  new  lower  cost  basis  of  the  investment.  In  addition,  we  may  assign  the  impairment  to  individual  assets  held  by  the 
equity-accounted joint venture, such as vessels and equipment, and this would result in an increase in our proportionate share of comprehensive 
earnings of the joint venture in future periods due to lower depreciation expense of the vessels and equipment of the equity-accounted joint venture. 
Consequently,  differences  in  conclusions  about  whether  an  investment  in  an  equity-accounted  joint  venture  is  impaired  and  the  amount  of  such 
impairment may result in a different impairment amount, including no impairment, and a different equity income (loss) in future periods.

Compensation of Directors and Senior Management

Director Compensation

The aggregate cash fees received by the five non-employee directors listed above under Directors and Senior Management and the one individual 
who served as non-employee director and retired in June 2020, for their service as directors, plus reimbursement of their out-of-pocket expenses, 
was approximately $0.7 million. Each non-employee director receives an annual cash retainer of $90,000. The Chair of the Board also receives an 
annual  cash  retainer  of  $215,000.  Members  of  the  Audit  Committee,  Compensation  and  Human  Resources  Committee,  and  Nominating  and 
Governance Committee each receive an annual cash fee of $10,000. The Chairs of the Audit Committee, Compensation and Human Resources 
Committee,  and  Nominating  and  Governance  Committee  each  receive  an  annual  cash  fee  of  $20,000,  $17,500  and  $15,000,  respectively.  The 
Chair  of  the  Board  does  not  receive  an  additional  cash  retainer  for  being  a  member  of  the Audit  Committee  or  the  Compensation  and  Human 
Resources Committee or serving as the Chair of the Nominating and Governance Committee.

Each non-employee director also receives a $110,000 annual retainer to be paid by way of a grant of, at the director’s election, restricted stock or 
stock options under our 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (or the 2013 Plan). Pursuant to this annual retainer, during 2020, we granted 156,150 shares of 
restricted stock in June 2020. 

The Chair of the Board also receives a $150,000 annual retainer to be paid by way of a grant of, at the Chair’s election, restricted stock or stock 
options under our 2013 Equity Incentive Plan. Pursuant to this annual retainer, during 2020, we granted 47,318 shares of restricted stock to David 
Schellenberg. 

The restricted stock awards described in this section vests as to one-third of the shares on each of the first three anniversaries of their respective 
grant dates.

Annual Executive Compensation

The  aggregate  compensation  earned  in  2020  by  Teekay’s  six  executive  officers  listed  above  under  Directors  and  Senior  Management  (or  the 
Executive Officers), excluding equity-based compensation described below, was $6.5 million. This is comprised of base salary ($2.7 million), annual 
bonus ($2.8 million) and pension and other benefits ($1.0 million). These amounts were paid primarily in Canadian Dollars, but are reported here in 
U.S. Dollars using an average exchange rate of 1.34 Canadian Dollars for each U.S. Dollar for 2020. Teekay’s annual bonus plan considers both 
company performance and team performance.

Long-Term Incentive Program

Teekay’s  long-term  incentive  program  focuses  on  the  returns  realized  by  our  shareholders  and  is  intended  to  acknowledge  and  retain  those 
executives  who  can  influence  our  long-term  performance.  The  long-term  incentive  plan  provides  a  balance  against  short-term  decisions  and 
encourages a longer time horizon for decisions. This program consists of grants of stock option and restricted stock units. All grants in 2020 were 
made under our 2013 Plan.

During June 2020, we granted 631,422 restricted stock units to Teekay's Executive Officers under our 2013 Plan. The restricted stock units vest as 
to one-third of the shares on each of the first three anniversaries of their grant dates. 

Options to Purchase Securities from Registrant or Subsidiaries

In March 2013, we adopted the 2013 Plan and suspended the 1995 Stock Option Plan and the 2003 Equity Incentive Plan (collectively referred to 
as  the  Plans). As  at  December  31,  2020,  we  had  reserved  pursuant  to  our  2013  Plan  5,581,663  shares  (December  31,  2019  –  5,606,429)  of 
common stock.

During 2019 and 2018, we granted options under the 2013 Plan to acquire up to 2,620,582 and 1,048,916 shares of Common Stock, respectively, 
to eligible officers, employees and directors. There were no granted options in 2020, only restricted stock units were granted. Each option under the 
Plans has a 10-year term and vests equally over three years from the grant date. The outstanding options under the Plans as at December 31, 
2020  are  exercisable  at  prices  ranging  from  $3.98  to  $56.76  per  share,  with  a  weighted-average  exercise  price  of  $10.02  per  share  and  expire 
between March 14, 2021 and March 14, 2029.

Starting in 2013, employees who provide services to our publicly-traded subsidiaries (Teekay LNG and Teekay Tankers) received a proportion of 
their annual equity compensation award under the equity compensation plan of the applicable Daughter Entity (the Teekay LNG Partners L.P. 2005 
Long-Term  Incentive  Plan  or  the  Teekay  Tankers  Ltd.  2007  Long-Term  Incentive  Plan,  depending  on  their  level  of  contribution  towards  the 
applicable subsidiary. These awards generally took the form of Restricted Stock Units (or RSUs), which are described as Phantom Units under the 
Teekay  LNG  Partners  L.P.  2005  Long-Term  Incentive  Plan,  but  we  refer  to  all  of  these  awards  as  RSUs  for  purposes  of  this  disclosure. Teekay 
Tankers also granted stock options starting in 2014 to certain senior employees. The RSUs vest and become payable with respect to one-third of 
the shares on each of the first three years following the grant date and accrue distributions or dividends from the date of the grant to the date of 
vesting. Stock options vest one-third on each of the first three years and expire ten years after the date of their grant. 

Board Practices

Our  Board  of  Directors  currently  consists  of  six  members  as  listed  above  under  Directors  and  Senior  Management.  The  Board  of  Directors  is 
divided into three classes, with members of each class elected to hold office for a term of three years in accordance with the classification indicated 
below or until his or her successor is elected and qualified.

Directors Heidi Locke Simon and Rudolph Krediet were elected at the 2020 annual meeting, while Director Bjorn Moller did not stand for re-election 
at the annual meeting and retired from the Board of Directors at such time. Directors Kenneth Hvid and Alan Semple have terms expiring in 2021, 
and Messrs. Hvid and Semple intend to stand for re-election at the 2021 annual meeting. Directors Peter Antturi and David Schellenberg each have 
terms expiring in 2022. David Schellenberg currently serves as Chair of the Board. 

There are no service contracts between us and any of our directors providing for benefits upon termination of their employment or service.

The  Board  of  Directors  has  determined  that  each  of  the  current  members  of  the  Board,  other  than  Kenneth  Hvid, Teekay’s  President  and  Chief 
Executive  Officer,  has  no  material  relationship  with  Teekay  (either  directly  or  as  a  partner,  shareholder  or  officer  of  an  organization  that  has  a 
relationship  with  Teekay),  and  is  independent  within  the  meaning  of  our  director  independence  standards,  which  reflect  the  New  York  Stock 
Exchange  (or  NYSE)  director  independence  standards  as  currently  in  effect  and  as  they  may  be  changed  from  time  to  time.  In  making  this 
determination, the Board considered the relationships of Rudolph Krediet, Heidi Locke Simon and Peter Antturi with our largest shareholder or its 
affiliates and concluded these relationships do not materially affect their independence as directors. Please read “Item 7 – Major Shareholders and 
Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions.”

The Board of Directors has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines that address, among other things, director qualification standards, director 
functions  and  responsibilities,  director  access  to  management,  director  compensation  and  management  succession.  This  document  is  available 
under “Investors – Teekay Corporation – Governance” from the home page of our web site at www.teekay.com.

The NYSE does not require a company like ours, which is a “foreign private issuer”, to have a majority of independent directors on the Board of 
Directors or to establish compensation or nominating/corporate governance committees composed of independent directors.

69

The Board of Directors has the following three committees: Audit Committee, Compensation and Human Resources Committee, and Nominating 
and Governance Committee. The membership of these committees during 2020 and the function of each of the committees are described below. 
Each  of  the  committees  is  currently  comprised  of  independent  members,  other  than  Mr.  Hvid’s  membership  on  the  Nominating  and  Governance 
Committee,  and  operates  under  a  written  charter  adopted  by  the  Board. All  of  the  committee  charters  are  available  under  “Investors  –  Teekay 
Corporation  –  Governance”  from  the  home  page  of  our  website  at  www.teekay.com.  During  2020,  the  Board  held  four  meetings.  Each  director 
attended all Board meetings. During 2020, the Board held 18 regular committee meetings. Each director who was a member of a regular committee 
attended all applicable committee meetings.

In addition to the committees and meetings discussed above, the Board of Directors also struck an ad hoc special committee in 2020 in connection 
with the sale of Teekay’s interest in the incentive distribution rights of Teekay LNG. The committee consisted of Board members Heidi Locke Simon, 
Peter Antturi and Alan Semple, and held two meetings during 2020. Each committee member attended both meetings.

Our Audit Committee is composed entirely of directors who satisfy applicable NYSE and SEC audit committee independence standards. Our Audit 
Committee is currently comprised of Alan Semple (Chair), Heidi Locke Simon and David Schellenberg. All members of the committee are financially 
literate and the Board has determined that Mr. Semple qualifies as an audit committee financial expert.

The Audit Committee assists the Board in fulfilling its responsibilities for general oversight of:

•

•

•

•

the integrity of our consolidated financial statements;

our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements;

the independent auditors’ qualifications and independence; and

the performance of our internal audit function and independent auditors.

Our  Compensation  and  Human  Resources  Committee  is  composed  entirely  of  directors  who  satisfy  applicable  NYSE  compensation  committee 
independence standards. This committee is currently comprised of Heidi Locke Simon (Chair), Rudolph Krediet and David Schellenberg.

The Compensation and Human Resources Committee:

•

•

•

•

•

reviews and approves corporate goals and objectives relevant to the Chief Executive Officer’s compensation, evaluates the Chief Executive
Officer’s performance in light of these goals and objectives, and determines the Chief Executive Officer’s compensation;

reviews  and  approves  the  evaluation  process  and  compensation  structure  for  executive  officers,  other  than  the  Chief  Executive  Officer,
evaluates their performance and sets their compensation based on this evaluation;

reviews and makes recommendations to the Board regarding compensation for directors;

establishes and oversees long-term incentive compensation and equity-based plans; and

oversees our other compensation plans, policies and programs.

Our Nominating and Governance Committee is currently comprised of David Schellenberg (Chair), Kenneth Hvid, and Heidi Locke Simon.

The Nominating and Governance Committee:

•

•

•

•

identifies individuals qualified to become Board members and recommends to the Board of Directors nominees for election as directors;

maintains oversight of the operation and effectiveness of the Board and our corporate governance;

develops, updates and recommends to the Board corporate governance principles and policies applicable to us, and monitors compliance with
these principles and policies; and

oversees the evaluation of the Board and its committees.

The Board's Role in Oversight of Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance

Our  Corporate  Governance  Guidelines  outline  the  Board’s  role  in  oversight  of  our  health,  safety  and  environmental  performance  and  our 
performance on sustainability and diversity efforts. In addition, the Board is responsible for evaluating and overseeing compliance with our policies, 
practices and contributions made in fulfillment of our social responsibilities and commitment to sustainability. 

Crewing and Staff

As at December 31, 2020, we employed approximately 4,710 seagoing staff serving on our consolidated and equity-accounted vessels managed by 
us,  and  approximately  640  shore-based  personnel,  compared  to  approximately  5,050  seagoing  and  650  shore-based  personnel  as  at 
December 31, 2019, and approximately 4,800 seagoing and 780 shore-based personnel as at December 31, 2018. 

We regard attracting and retaining motivated seagoing personnel as a top priority. Through our global manning organization comprised of offices in 
Glasgow, Scotland; Manila, Philippines; Mumbai, India; Sydney, Australia; and Madrid, Spain, we offer seafarers what we believe are competitive 
employment packages and comprehensive benefits. We also intend to provide opportunities for personal and career development, which relate to 
our philosophy of promoting internally.

70

We  are  a  party  to  a  collective  bargaining  agreement  with  the  Philippine  Seafarers’  Union,  an  affiliate  of  the  International  Transport  Workers’ 
Federation (or ITF), and an agreement with ITF London that cover substantially all of our junior officers and seafarers that operate our Bahamian-
flagged  vessels.  We  are  also  party  to  collective  bargaining  agreements  with  various Australian  maritime  unions  that  cover  officers  and  seafarers 
employed  through  our Australian  operations.  Our  officers  and  seafarers  for  our  Spanish-flagged  vessels  are  covered  by  a  collective  bargaining 
agreement with Spain’s Union General de Trabajadores and Comisiones Obreras. We believe our relationships with these labor unions are good, 
with long-term collective bargaining agreements that demonstrate commitment from both parties.

Our  commitment  to  training  is  fundamental  to  the  development  of  the  highest  caliber  seafarers  for  our  marine  operations.  Our  cadet  training 
program is designed to balance academic learning with hands-on training at sea. We have relationships with training institutions in Canada, Croatia, 
India,  Norway,  Philippines,  Turkey  and  the  United  Kingdom.  After  receiving  formal  instruction  at  one  of  these  institutions,  the  cadets’  training 
continues on-board a Teekay vessel. We also have an accredited Teekay-specific competence management system that is designed to ensure a 
continuous  flow  of  qualified  officers  who  are  trained  on  our  vessels  and  are  familiar  with  our  operational  standards,  systems  and  policies.  We 
believe that high-quality manning and training policies will play an increasingly important role in distinguishing larger independent tanker companies 
that have in-house, or affiliate, capabilities from smaller companies that must rely on outside ship managers and crewing agents.

subsequent date result in a change in control of Teekay.

Teekay and certain of its subsidiaries have relationships or are parties to transactions with other Teekay subsidiaries, including Teekay’s publicly-
traded subsidiaries Teekay LNG and Teekay Tankers. Certain of these relationships and transactions are described below. 

Relationships with Our Major Shareholder

As of December 31, 2020, Resolute owned approximately 31.6% of our outstanding common stock. The ultimate controlling person of Resolute is 
Path,  which  is  the  trust  protector  for  the  trust  that  indirectly  owns  all  of  Resolute’s  outstanding  equity.  One  of  our  current  directors,  Heidi  Locke 
Simon, is engaged as a consultant to Kattegat Limited, the parent company of Resolute, to oversee its investments, including that in the Teekay 
group of companies. Director Rudolph Krediet is partner at Anholt Services (USA), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kattegat Limited. Director Peter 
Antturi serves as an executive officer and director of Resolute and other Kattegat Limited subsidiaries and affiliates. 

Our Directors and Executive Officers

Our  current  Chair  of  the  Board,  David  Schellenberg,  also  serves  as  a  director  of Teekay  GP  L.L.C.  (the  general  partner  of Teekay  LNG)  and  of 
Teekay Tankers Ltd. Kenneth Hvid, our President and Chief Executive Officer, also serves as Chair of Teekay GP L.L.C and Teekay Tankers Ltd. 
Arthur Bensler, our Executive Vice President, Secretary and General Counsel, is a director of Teekay Tankers. Our director, Alan Semple, is also a 
director of Teekay GP L.L.C. 

Other of our officers currently serve as the Chief Executive Officer of Teekay Tankers Ltd. and as the Chief Executive Officer of Teekay Gas Group 
Ltd., which provides executive personnel and other services to Teekay LNG. 

Because the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of Teekay Tankers Ltd. and the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer 
of  Teekay  Gas  Group  Ltd.,  who  provide  or  provided  services  to  Teekay  LNG,  were  employees  of  Teekay  or  other  of  its  subsidiaries,  their 
compensation (other than any awards under the respective long-term incentive plans of Teekay Tankers and Teekay LNG) is or was paid by Teekay 
or such other applicable entities. Pursuant to agreements with Teekay, each of Teekay Tankers and Teekay LNG agreed to reimburse Teekay or its 
applicable subsidiaries for time spent by the executive officers on providing services to such public entities and their subsidiaries. For 2020, these 
reimbursement obligations totaled approximately $1.9 million and $1.4 million, respectively, for Teekay Tankers and Teekay LNG. For both 2019 and 
2018, these reimbursement obligations totaled approximately $1.8 million and $1.4 million, respectively, for Teekay Tankers and Teekay LNG.

Relationships with the Daughter Entities 

Please see “Item 4C – Information on the Company – Organizational Structure” for information about our ownership interests in Teekay Tankers and 
Teekay LNG. Please see “Item 4A – Information on the Company – Overview, History and Development – Our Ownership of the Daughter Entities 
and  Recent  Equity  Offerings  and  Transactions  by  Daughter  Entities”  for  information  about  certain  equity  issuances  by  the  Daughter  Entities  to 
Teekay. In May 2019, we sold our remaining interests in our equity-accounted investment, Altera, to Brookfield (or the 2019 Brookfield Transaction).

Competition with Teekay Tankers, Teekay LNG and Altera

We  have  entered  into  an  omnibus  agreement  with Teekay  LNG, Altera  and  related  parties  governing,  among  other  things,  when Teekay, Teekay 
LNG,  and  Altera  may  compete  with  each  other  and  providing  for  rights  of  first  offer  on  the  transfer  or  rechartering  of  certain  LNG  carriers,  oil 
tankers, shuttle tankers, FSO units and FPSO units. Subject to applicable exceptions, the omnibus agreement generally provides that, without the 
approval of the other applicable parties, (a) neither Teekay nor Teekay LNG will own or operate offshore vessels (i.e. dynamically positioned shuttle 
tankers, FSO units and FPSO units) that are subject to contracts with a duration of three years or more, excluding extension options, (b) neither 
Teekay nor Altera will own or operate LNG carriers and (c) neither Teekay LNG nor Altera will own or operate crude oil tankers, other than crude oil 
tankers included in their respective fleets as of the dates of their respective initial public offerings and certain replacement tankers. If Teekay or its 
affiliates no longer control the general partner of Teekay LNG or Altera or if there is a change of control of Teekay, the general partner of Teekay 
LNG or Altera or Teekay, as applicable, may terminate relevant noncompetition and rights of first offer provisions of the omnibus agreement. During 
2018,  Brookfield  acquired  a  51%  ownership  interest  in  the  general  partner  of Altera  and  thereby  obtained  the  right  to  appoint  a  majority  of  the 
directors of the general partner’s Board of Directors. This transaction constituted a change of control, giving Altera the right to elect to terminate the 
omnibus agreement. Teekay divested its remaining ownership interest in Altera and its general partner in 2019. To date, Altera has not terminated 
the omnibus agreement.

In addition, Teekay Tankers’ organization documents provide that Teekay may pursue business opportunities attractive to both parties and of which 
either party becomes aware. These business opportunities may include, among other things, opportunities to charter out, charter in or acquire oil 
tankers or to acquire tanker businesses.

Sales of Vessels and Project Interests

From time to time, Teekay has sold to Teekay Tankers and Teekay LNG vessels or interests in vessel-owning subsidiaries or joint ventures. These 
transactions include those described under “Item 5 – Operating and Financial Review and Prospects – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of 
Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

Time Chartering Arrangements

Commencing in April 2008, Teekay Parent had chartered in from Teekay LNG the LNG carriers Arctic Spirit and Polar Spirit under a fixed-rate time 
charter for a period of ten years. The contracts for Arctic Spirit and Polar Spirit terminated in March and April 2018, respectively. Commencing in 
May  2019, Teekay  LNG  chartered  in  the  Magellan  Spirit  LNG  carrier  from Teekay  Parent  on  a  short-term  time-charter  contract  until  October  31, 
2019. During 2019, and 2018, Teekay LNG earned revenues of $11.6 million, and $9.4 million, respectively, under these time-charter contracts. 

Services and Management Agreements

Services Agreements. In connection with its initial public offering in May 2005 and subsequent thereto, Teekay LNG and certain of its subsidiaries 
entered into services agreements with certain other subsidiaries of Teekay, pursuant to which the other Teekay subsidiaries agreed to provide to 
Teekay LNG and their operating subsidiaries administrative, strategic, business development, advisory, commercial and ship management services. 
The  Teekay  subsidiaries  provide  these  services  directly  or  subcontract  for  certain  of  these  services  with  other  entities,  including  other  Teekay 
subsidiaries.  Under  the  agreements,  Teekay  LNG  pays  arm’s-length  fees  for  the  services  that  include  reimbursement  of  any  direct  and  indirect 
expenses the other Teekay subsidiaries incur in providing these services.

During 2020, 2019 and 2018, Teekay LNG incurred expenses of $20.3 million, $20.4 million and $31.6 million, respectively, for services rendered to 
them by us for these services.

Management  Agreement.  In  connection  with  its  initial  public  offering,  Teekay  Tankers  entered  into  the  long-term  management  agreement  with 
Teekay  Tankers  Management  Services  Ltd.  (TTMS,  or  the  Manager),  a  subsidiary  of  Teekay.  On  October  1,  2018,  TTMS  merged  with  Teekay 
Shipping Ltd. (or TSL), a subsidiary of Teekay and assumed the role as Manager.

Pursuant  to  the  Management  Agreement,  the  Manager  has  agreed  to  provide  the  following  types  of  services  to  Teekay  Tankers:  commercial 
(primarily  vessel  chartering),  technical  (primarily  vessel  maintenance  and  crewing),  administrative  (primarily  accounting,  legal  and  financial)  and 
strategic  (primarily  advising  on  acquisitions,  strategic  planning  and  general  management  of  the  business).  Since  commencement  of  the 
Management Agreement,  the  Manager  subcontracted  with  Teekay  Tankers  Operations  Ltd.  (or  TTOL)  to  provide  to  Teekay  Tankers,  through  its 
subsidiaries  or  affiliates,  commercial  management  and  technical  services  for  most  of  Teekay  Tankers’  fleet.  In  August  2014,  Teekay  Tankers 
purchased from us a 50% interest in TTOL and in May 2017, Teekay Tankers acquired the remaining 50% interest in TTOL. On October 1, 2018, 
Teekay Tankers elected to provide its own commercial and technical services, effectively eliminating the prior subcontracting arrangement between 
the Manager and TTOL. 

In return for commercial and technical services under the Management Agreement, prior to October 1, 2018, Teekay Tankers paid the Manager an 
agreed-upon fee for the commercial services (other than for Teekay Tankers' vessels participating in pooling arrangements) and a technical services 
fee equal to the average rate Teekay charges third parties to technically manage their vessels of a similar size. In addition, Teekay Tankers pays 
fees for administrative and strategic services that reimburse the Manager for its related direct and indirect expenses in providing such services and 
which includes a profit margin. During 2020, 2019, and 2018, Teekay Tankers incurred $31.8 million, $32.6 million, and $43.3 million, respectively, 
for  all  of  these  services,  and  during  2020,  2019  and  2018  the  Manager  paid  to  the  Teekay  Tankers  subsidiaries  with  which  it  subcontracted  for 
certain services, $0.7 million, $0.8 million and $13.8 million, respectively.

The management agreement also provides for the payment of a performance fee in order to provide the Manager an incentive to increase cash 
available for distribution to Teekay Tankers’ shareholders. Teekay Tankers did not incur any performance fees for 2020, 2019, or 2018.

Please see "Item 18 – Financial Statements" below for additional information required to be disclosed under this Item.

Legal Proceedings

From time to time we have been, and we expect to continue to be, subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of our business, 
principally personal injury and property casualty claims. Such claims, even if lacking merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and 
managerial resources. We believe that any adverse outcome of existing claims, individually or in the aggregate, would not have a material effect on 
our financial position, results of operations or cash flows, when taking into account our insurance coverage and rights to seek indemnification from 
charterers.  For  information  about  recent  legal  proceedings,  please  read  “Item  18  –  Financial  Statements:  Note  16c  –  Legal  Proceedings  and 
Claims.”

Dividend Policy

Since our initial public offering in 1995 until the quarter ended December 31, 2018, we had declared and paid a regular cash dividend. Our Board of 
Directors approved the elimination of the quarterly dividend on Teekay’s common stock commencing with the quarter ended March 31, 2019.

73

Commencing with the quarter ended March 31, 2019, our Board of Directors has not declared or paid a cash dividend, consistent with our strategy 
to further strengthen our balance sheet and the Board's belief that it is in the best interests of our shareholders to conserve more of our cash flows 
to reduce debt levels. 

In 2020, Teekay LNG increased its quarterly cash distributions on common units by 32% from $0.19 per common unit to $0.25 per common unit 
commencing  with  the  quarterly  distribution  paid  in  May  2020. Teekay  LNG  intends  to  further  increase  its  quarterly  cash  distributions  by  15%  to 
$0.2875 per common unit commencing with the distribution for the first quarter of 2021 payable in May 2021. 

In  2018,  Teekay  Tankers  eliminated  its  regular  dividend  payments  in  order  to  preserve  liquidity  during  the  cyclical  downturn  of  the  tanker  spot 
market. With a current focus on building net asset value through balance sheet delevering and reducing its cost of capital, any future dividends by 
Teekay Tankers would be paid when, as and if determined by the Board of Directors.

Pursuant to our dividend reinvestment program, holders of shares of our common stock are permitted to choose, in lieu of receiving cash dividends, 
to  reinvest  any  dividends  in  additional  shares  of  common  stock  at  then-prevailing  market  prices,  but  without  brokerage  commissions  or  service 
charges.

The timing and amount of our dividends, if any, will depend, among other things, on our results of operations, financial condition, cash requirements, 
restrictions in financing agreements and other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors. Since we primarily are a holding company, with 
limited assets other than the ownership interests in our subsidiaries, our ability to pay dividends on the common stock depends on the earnings and 
cash flow of our subsidiaries and distributions from our subsidiaries. Our Board of Directors may change our common stock dividends at any time.

Significant Changes

Exchange Controls and Other Limitations Affecting Security Holders

We are not aware of any governmental laws, decrees or regulations, including foreign exchange controls, in the Republic of the Marshall Islands 
that restrict the export or import of capital or that affect the remittance of dividends, interest or other payments to holders of our securities that are 
non-resident and not citizens and otherwise not conducting business or transactions in the Marshall Islands.

We are not aware of any limitations on the right of non-resident or foreign owners to hold or vote our securities imposed by the laws of the Republic 
of the Marshall Islands or our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws.

Taxation

Teekay Corporation was incorporated in the Republic of Liberia on February 9, 1979 and was domesticated in the Republic of the Marshall Islands 
on December 20, 1999. Its principal executive offices are located in Bermuda. The following provides information regarding taxes to which a U.S. 
Holder of our common stock may be subject.

Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations

The  following  is  a  discussion  of  certain  material  U.S.  federal  income  tax  considerations  that  may  be  relevant  to  shareholders. This  discussion  is 
based upon provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (or the Code), legislative history, applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations 
(or  Treasury  Regulations),  judicial  authority  and  administrative  interpretations,  all  as  in  effect  on  the  date  of  this  Annual  Report  and  which  are 
subject  to  change,  possibly  with  retroactive  effect,  or  are  subject  to  different  interpretations.  Changes  in  these  authorities  may  cause  the  tax 
consequences to vary substantially from the consequences described below. Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this section to 
“we,” “our” or “us” are references to Teekay Corporation.

This discussion is limited to shareholders who hold their common stock as a capital asset for tax purposes. This discussion does not address all tax 
considerations that may be important to a particular shareholder in light of the shareholder’s circumstances, or to certain categories of shareholders 
that may be subject to special tax rules, such as:

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

dealers in securities or currencies,

traders in securities that have elected the mark-to-market method of accounting for their securities,

persons whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar,

persons holding our common stock as part of a hedge, straddle, conversion or other “synthetic security” or integrated transaction,

certain U.S. expatriates,

financial institutions,

insurance companies,

persons subject to the alternative minimum tax,

persons that actually or under applicable constructive ownership rules own 10% or more of our common stock (by vote or value), and

entities that are tax-exempt for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

75

If a partnership (including any entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holds our common stock, the tax 
treatment of a partner generally will depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partners in partnerships holding our 
common stock should consult their tax advisors to determine the appropriate tax treatment of the partnership’s ownership of our common stock.

This discussion does not address any U.S. estate tax considerations or tax considerations arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. 
jurisdiction. Each shareholder is urged to consult its tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal, state, local, non-U.S. and other tax consequences of the 
ownership or disposition of our common stock.

United States Federal Income Taxation of U.S. Holders

As used herein, the term U.S. Holder means a beneficial owner of our common stock that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes: (i) a U.S. citizen 
or U.S. resident alien (or a U.S. Individual Holder), (ii) a corporation or other entity taxable as a corporation, that was created or organized under the 
laws  of  the  United  States,  any  state  thereof  or  the  District  of  Columbia,  (iii)  an  estate  whose  income  is  subject  to  U.S.  federal  income  taxation 
regardless of its source, or (iv) a trust that either is subject to the supervision of a court within the United States and has one or more U.S. persons 
with authority to control all of its substantial decisions or has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury Regulations to be treated as a U.S. 
person.

Distributions

Subject  to  the  discussion  of  passive  foreign  investment  companies  (or  PFICs)  below,  any  distributions  made  by  us  with  respect  to  our  common 
stock to a U.S. Holder generally will constitute dividends, which may be taxable as ordinary income or “qualified dividend income” as described in 
more detail below, to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits allocated to the U.S. Holder's common stock, as determined 
under U.S. federal income tax principles. Distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits allocated to the U.S. Holder's 
common stock will be treated first as a non-taxable return of capital to the extent of the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in our common stock and thereafter 
as capital gain, which will be either long-term or short-term capital gain depending upon whether the U.S. Holder has held the common stock for 
more  than  one  year.  U.S.  Holders  that  are  corporations  for  U.S.  federal  income  tax  purposes  generally  will  not  be  entitled  to  claim  a  dividends 
received deduction with respect to any distributions they receive from us. For purposes of computing allowable foreign tax credits for U.S. federal 
income tax purposes, dividends received with respect to our common stock will be treated as foreign source income and generally will be treated as 
“passive category income.”

Subject to holding period requirements and certain other limitations, dividends received with respect to our common stock by a U.S. Holder who is 
an individual, trust or estate (or a Non-Corporate U.S. Holder) will be treated as “qualified dividend income” that is taxable to such Non-Corporate 
U.S. Holder at preferential capital gain tax rates provided that we are not classified as a PFIC for the taxable year during which the dividend is paid 
or  the  immediately  preceding  taxable  year  (we  intend  to  take  the  position  that  we  are  not  now  and  have  never  been  classified  as  a  PFIC,  as 
discussed below). Any dividends received with respect to our common stock not eligible for these preferential rates will be taxed as ordinary income 
to a Non-Corporate U.S. Holder.

Special rules may apply to any “extraordinary dividend” paid by us. Generally, an extraordinary dividend is a dividend with respect to a share of 
common stock if the amount of the dividend is equal to or in excess of 10% of a common stockholder’s adjusted tax basis (or fair market value in 
certain circumstances) in such common stock. In addition, extraordinary dividends include dividends received within a one-year period that, in the 
aggregate, equal or exceed 20% of a stockholder’s adjusted tax basis (or fair market value in certain circumstances). If we pay an “extraordinary 
dividend” on our common stock that is treated as “qualified dividend income,” then any loss recognized by a Non-Corporate U.S. Holder from the 
sale or exchange of such common stock will be treated as long-term capital loss to the extent of the amount of such dividend.

Certain  Non-Corporate  U.S.  Holders  are  subject  to  a  3.8%  tax  on  certain  investment  income,  including  dividends.  Non-Corporate  U.S.  Holders 
should consult their tax advisors regarding the effect, if any, of this tax on their ownership of our common stock.

Sale, Exchange or Other Disposition of Common Stock

Subject to the discussion of PFICs below, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss upon a sale, exchange or other disposition of 
our  common  stock  in  an  amount  equal  to  the  difference  between  the  amount  realized  by  the  U.S.  Holder  from  such  sale,  exchange  or  other 
disposition and the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in such stock. Subject to the discussion of extraordinary dividends above, such gain or loss generally will 
be treated as (i) long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period is greater than one year at the time of the sale, exchange or other 
disposition,  or  short  -term  capital  gain  or  loss  otherwise  and  (ii)  U.S.-source  gain  or  loss,  as  applicable,  for  foreign  tax  credit  purposes.  Non-
Corporate U.S. Holders may be eligible for preferential rates of U.S. federal income tax in respect of long-term capital gains. A U.S. Holder’s ability 
to deduct capital losses is subject to certain limitations.

Certain  Non-Corporate  U.S.  Holders  are  subject  to  a  3.8%  tax  on  certain  investment  income,  including  capital  gains  from  the  sale  or  other 
disposition of stock. Non-Corporate U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the effect, if any, of this tax on their disposition of our 
common stock.

Consequences of Possible PFIC Classification

A non-U.S. entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes will be treated as a PFIC in any taxable year in which, after taking 
into  account  the  income  and  assets  of  the  corporation  pursuant  to  a  “look  through”  rule,  any  other  corporation  or  partnership  in  which  the 
corporation directly or indirectly owns at least 25% of the stock or equity interests (by value), either: (i) at least 75% of its gross income is “passive” 
income, or (ii) at least 50% of the average value of its assets is attributable to assets that produce, or are held for the production of, passive income. 
For purposes of these tests, “passive income” includes dividends, interest, gains from the sale or exchange of investment property and rents and 

76

royalties  other  than  rents  and  royalties  that  are  received  from  unrelated  parties  in  connection  with  the  active  conduct  of  a  trade  or  business.  By 
contrast, income derived from the performance of services does not constitute “passive income.”

There  are  legal  uncertainties  involved  in  determining  whether  the  income  derived  from  our  and  our  look-through  subsidiaries’  time-chartering 
activities  constitutes  rental  income  or  income  derived  from  the  performance  of  services,  including  legal  uncertainties  arising  from  the  decision  in 
Tidewater  Inc.  v.  United  States,  565  F.3d  299  (5th  Cir.  2009),  which  held  that  income  derived  from  certain  time-chartering  activities  should  be 
treated as rental income rather than services income for purposes of a foreign sales corporation provision of the Code. However, the IRS stated in 
an Action  on  Decision  (AOD  2010-01)  that  it  disagrees  with,  and  will  not  acquiesce  to,  the  way  that  the  rental  versus  services  framework  was 
applied to the facts in the Tidewater decision, and in its discussion stated that the time charters at issue in Tidewater would be treated as producing 
services  income  for  PFIC  purposes.  The  IRS’s  statement  with  respect  to  Tidewater  cannot  be  relied  upon  or  otherwise  cited  as  precedent  by 
taxpayers. Consequently, in the absence of any binding legal authority specifically relating to the statutory provisions governing PFICs, there can be 
no assurance that the IRS or a court would not follow the Tidewater decision in interpreting the PFIC provisions of the Code. Moreover, the market 
value of our common stock and our publicly-traded look-through subsidiaries may be treated as reflecting the value of our assets, and our publicly 
traded look-through subsidiaries’ assets, respectively, at any given time. Therefore, a decline in the market value of our common stock, or the stock 
of  our  publicly-traded  look-through  subsidiaries,  which  is  not  within  our  control,  may  impact  the  determination  of  whether  we  are  a  PFIC. 
Nevertheless, based on our and our look-through subsidiaries’ current assets and operations, we intend to take the position that we are not now 
and have never been a PFIC. No assurance can be given, however, that the IRS or a court of law will accept our position or that we would not 
constitute a PFIC for any future taxable year if there were to be changes in our or our look-through subsidiaries' assets, income or operations.

As  discussed  more  fully  below,  if  we  were  to  be  treated  as  a  PFIC  for  any  taxable  year,  a  U.S.  Holder  generally  would  be  subject  to  different 
taxation  rules  depending  on  whether  the  U.S.  Holder  makes  a  timely  and  effective  election  to  treat  us  as  a  “qualified  electing  fund”  (or  a  QEF 
election). As an alternative to making a QEF election, a U.S. Holder should be able to make a “mark-to-market” election with respect to our common 
stock, as discussed below.

Taxation of U.S. Holders Making a Timely QEF Election. A U.S. Holder who makes a timely QEF election (or an Electing Holder) must report the 
Electing Holder’s pro rata share of our ordinary earnings and net capital gain, if any, for each taxable year for which we are a PFIC that ends with or 
within the Electing Holder’s taxable year, regardless of whether or not the Electing Holder received distributions from us in that year. Such income 
inclusions would not be eligible for the preferential tax rates applicable to qualified dividend income. The Electing Holder’s adjusted tax basis in our 
common  stock  will  be  increased  to  reflect  taxed  but  undistributed  earnings  and  profits.  Distributions  of  earnings  and  profits  that  were  previously 
taxed  will  result  in  a  corresponding  reduction  in  the  Electing  Holder’s  adjusted  tax  basis  in  our  common  stock  and  will  not  be  taxed  again  once 
distributed. An Electing Holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss on the sale, exchange or other disposition of our common stock. A U.S. 
Holder makes a QEF election with respect to any year that we are a PFIC by filing IRS Form 8621 with the U.S. Holder’s timely filed U.S. federal 
income tax return (including extensions).

If a U.S. Holder has not made a timely QEF election with respect to the first year in the U.S. Holder’s holding period of our common stock during 
which we qualified as a PFIC, the U.S. Holder may be treated as having made a timely QEF election by filing a QEF election with the U.S. Holder’s 
timely  filed  U.S.  federal  income  tax  return  (including  extensions)  and,  under  the  rules  of  Section  1291  of  the  Code,  a  “deemed  sale  election”  to 
include in income as an “excess distribution” (described below) the amount of any gain that the U.S. Holder would otherwise recognize if the U.S. 
Holder  sold  the  U.S.  Holder’s  common  stock  on  the  “qualification  date.”  The  qualification  date  is  the  first  day  of  our  taxable  year  in  which  we 
qualified  as  a  “qualified  electing  fund”  with  respect  to  such  U.S.  Holder.  In  addition  to  the  above  rules,  under  very  limited  circumstances,  a  U.S. 
Holder may make a retroactive QEF election if the U.S. Holder failed to file the QEF election documents in a timely manner. If a U.S. Holder makes 
a timely QEF election for one of our taxable years, but did not make such election with respect to the first year in the U.S. Holder’s holding period of 
our  common  stock  during  which  we  qualified  as  a  PFIC  and  the  U.S.  Holder  did  not  make  the  deemed  sale  election  described  above,  the  U.S. 
Holder also will be subject to the more adverse rules described below.

A U.S. Holder’s QEF election will not be effective unless we annually provide the U.S. Holder with certain information concerning our income and 
gain, calculated in accordance with the Code, to be included with the U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax return. We have not provided our U.S. 
Holders  with  such  information  in  prior  taxable  years  and  do  not  intend  to  provide  such  information  in  the  current  taxable  year. Accordingly,  U.S. 
Holders will not be able to make an effective QEF election at this time. If, contrary to our expectations, we determine that we are or will be a PFIC 
for any taxable year, we will provide U.S. Holders with the information necessary to make an effective QEF election with respect to our common 
stock.

Taxation  of  U.S.  Holders  Making  a  Mark-to-Market  Election.  If  we  were  to  be  treated  as  a  PFIC  for  any  taxable  year  and,  as  we  anticipate,  our 
common  stock  was  treated  as  “marketable  stock”,  then,  as  an  alternative  to  making  a  QEF  election,  a  U.S.  Holder  would  be  allowed  to  make  a 
“mark-to-market” election with respect to our common stock, provided the U.S. Holder completes and files IRS Form 8621 in accordance with the 
relevant  instructions  and  related  Treasury  Regulations.  If  that  election  is  made  for  the  first  year  a  U.S.  Holder  holds  or  is  deemed  to  hold  our 
common stock and for which we are a PFIC, the U.S. Holder generally would include as ordinary income in each taxable year that we are a PFIC 
the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the U.S. Holder’s common stock at the end of the taxable year over the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax 
basis in the common stock. 

The U.S. Holder also would be permitted an ordinary loss in respect of the excess, if any, of the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the common 
stock  over  the  fair  market  value  thereof  at  the  end  of  the  taxable  year  that  we  are  a  PFIC,  but  only  to  the  extent  of  the  net  amount  previously 
included in income as a result of the mark-to-market election. A U.S. Holder’s tax basis in our common stock would be adjusted to reflect any such 
income or loss recognized. Gain recognized on the sale, exchange or other disposition of our common stock in taxable years that we are a PFIC 
would be treated as ordinary income, and any loss recognized on the sale, exchange or other disposition of our common stock in taxable years that 
we are a PFIC would be treated as ordinary loss to the extent that such loss does not exceed the net mark-to-market gains previously included in 
income  by  the  U.S.  Holder.  Because  the  mark-to-market  election  may  not  be  applicable  to  marketable  stock  held  indirectly  through  a  foreign 
corporation that is not a controlled foreign corporation, however, it may not apply to a U.S. Holder’s indirect interest in any of our subsidiaries that 
were also determined to be PFICs.

77

If a U.S. Holder makes a mark-to-market election for one of our taxable years and we were a PFIC for a prior taxable year during which such U.S. 
Holder held our common stock and for which (i) we were not a QEF with respect to such U.S. Holder and (ii) such U.S. Holder did not make a timely 
mark-to-market election, such U.S. Holder would also be subject to the more adverse rules described below in the first taxable year for which the 
mark-to-market  election  is  in  effect  and  also  to  the  extent  the  fair  market  value  of  the  U.S.  Holder’s  common  stock  exceeds  the  U.S.  Holder’s 
adjusted tax basis in the common stock at the end of the first taxable year for which the mark-to-market election is in effect.

Taxation  of  U.S.  Holders  Not  Making  a Timely  QEF  or  Mark-to-Market  Election.  If  we  were  to  be  treated  as  a  PFIC  for  any  taxable  year,  a  U.S. 
Holder who does not make either a QEF election or a “mark-to-market” election for that year (a Non-Electing Holder) would be subject to special 
rules resulting in increased tax liability with respect to (i) any excess distribution (i.e., the portion of any distributions received by the Non-Electing 
Holder on our common stock in a taxable year in excess of 125% of the average annual distributions received by the Non-Electing Holder in the 
three preceding taxable years, or, if shorter, the Non-Electing Holder’s holding period for our common stock), and (ii) any gain realized on the sale, 
exchange or other disposition of our common stock. Under these special rules:

•

•

•

•

the excess distribution or gain would be allocated ratably over the Non-Electing Holder’s aggregate holding period for our common stock;

the amount allocated to the current taxable year and any taxable year prior to the taxable year we were first treated as a PFIC with respect to
the Non-Electing Holder would be taxed as ordinary income in the current taxable year;

the amount allocated to each of the other taxable years would be subject to U.S. federal income tax at the highest rate of tax in effect for the
applicable class of taxpayer for that year; and

an interest charge for the deemed deferral benefit would be imposed with respect to the resulting tax attributable to each such other taxable
year.

Additionally, for each year during which a U.S. Holder holds our common stock, we are a PFIC, and the total value of all PFIC stock that such U.S. 
Holder directly or indirectly holds exceeds certain thresholds, such U.S. Holder will be required to file IRS Form 8621 with its annual U.S. federal 
income tax return to report its ownership of our common stock. In addition, if a Non-Electing Holder, who is an individual, dies while owning our 
common stock, such Non-Electing Holder’s successor generally would not receive a step-up in tax basis with respect to such common stock.

U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the PFIC rules, including the PFIC annual reporting requirements, as well 
as  the  applicability,  availability  and  advisability  of,  and  procedure  for,  making  QEF,  Mark-to-Market  and  other  available  elections  with 
respect to us and our subsidiaries, and the U.S. federal income tax consequences of making such elections.

U.S. Return Disclosure Requirements for U.S. Individual Holders

U.S.  Individual  Holders  who  hold  certain  specified  foreign  financial  assets,  including  stock  in  a  foreign  corporation  that  is  not  held  in  an  account 
maintained by a financial institution, with an aggregate value in excess of $50,000 on the last day of a taxable year, or $75,000 at any time during 
that  taxable  year,  may  be  required  to  report  such  assets  on  IRS  Form  8938  with  their  U.S.  federal  income  tax  return  for  that  taxable  year. This 
reporting requirement does not apply to U.S. Individual Holders who report their ownership of our common stock under the PFIC annual reporting 
rules described above. Penalties apply for failure to properly complete and file IRS Form 8938. U.S. Individual Holders are encouraged to consult 
with their tax advisors regarding the possible application of this disclosure requirement to their investment in our common stock.

United States Federal Income Taxation of Non-U.S. Holders

A  beneficial  owner  of  our  common  stock  (other  than  a  partnership,  including  any  entity  or  arrangement  treated  as  a  partnership  for  U.S.  federal 
income tax purposes) that is not a U.S. Holder is a Non-U.S. Holder.

Distributions

In general, a Non-U.S. Holder will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on distributions received from us with respect to our common stock 
unless the distributions are effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and, if required 
by an applicable income tax treaty, are attributable to a permanent establishment that the Non-U.S. Holder maintains in the United States). If a Non-
U.S. Holder is engaged in a trade or business within the United States and the distributions are deemed to be effectively connected to that trade or 
business (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, are attributable to a permanent establishment that the Non-U.S. Holder maintains in 
the United States), the Non-U.S. Holder generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on those distributions in the same manner as if it were a 
U.S. Holder. In addition, a Non-U.S. Holder that is a foreign corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes may be subject to branch profits tax at 
a rate of 30% (or lower applicable treaty rate) on the after-tax earnings and profits attributable to such distributions.

Sale, Exchange or Other Disposition of Common Stock

In  general,  a  Non-U.S.  Holder  is  not  subject  to  U.S.  federal  income  tax  on  any  gain  resulting  from  the  disposition  of  our  common  stock  unless 
(i) such  gain  is  effectively  connected  with  the  Non-U.S.  Holder’s  conduct  of  a  trade  or  business  within  the  United  States  (and,  if  required  by  an
applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a permanent establishment that the Non-U.S. Holder maintains in the United States) or (ii) the Non-
U.S. Holder is an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year in which such disposition occurs and
meets  certain  other  requirements.  If  a  Non-U.S.  Holder  is  engaged  in  a  trade  or  business  within  the  United  States  and  the  disposition  of  our
common stock is deemed to be effectively connected to that trade or business (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, are attributable
to  a  permanent  establishment  that  the  Non-U.S.  Holder  maintains  in  the  United  States),  the  Non-U.S.  Holder  generally  will  be  subject  to  U.S.
federal income tax on the resulting gain in the same manner as if it were a U.S. Holder. In addition, a Non-U.S. Holder that is a foreign corporation
for U.S. federal income tax purposes may be subject to branch profits tax at a rate of 30% (or lower applicable treaty rate) on the after-tax earnings
and profits attributable to such gain.

78

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

In general, distributions taxable as dividends with respect to, or the proceeds from a sale, redemption or other taxable disposition of, our common 
stock held by a Non-Corporate U.S. Holder will be subject to information reporting requirements, unless such distribution taxable as a dividend is 
paid and received outside the United States by a non-U.S. payor or non-U.S. middleman (within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulations), or such 
proceeds are effected through an office outside the U.S. of a broker that is considered a non-U.S. payor or non-U.S. middleman (within the meaning 
of U.S. Treasury Regulations). These amounts also generally will be subject to backup withholding if the Non-Corporate U.S. Holder: 

•
•
•

fails to timely provide an accurate taxpayer identification number;
is notified by the IRS that it has failed to report all interest or distributions required to be shown on its U.S. federal income tax returns; or
in certain circumstances, fails to comply with applicable certification requirements.

Information  reporting  and  backup  withholding  generally  will  not  apply  to  distributions  taxable  as  dividends  on  our  common  stock  to  a  Non-U.S. 
Holder  if  such  dividend  is  paid  and  received  outside  the  United  States  by  a  non-U.S.  payor  or  non-U.S.  middleman  (within  the  meaning  of  U.S. 
Treasury  Regulations)  or  the  Non-U.S.  Holder  properly  certifies  under  penalties  of  perjury  as  to  its  non-U.S.  status  (generally  on  IRS  Form 
W-8BEN,  W-8BEN-E,  W-8ECI,  or  W-8EXP,  as  applicable)  and  certain  other  conditions  are  met  or  the  Non-U.S.  Holder  otherwise  establishes  an
exemption.

Payment of proceeds to a Non-U.S. Holder from a sale, redemption or other taxable disposition of our common stock to or through the U.S. office of 
a broker, or through a broker that is considered a U.S. payor or U.S. middleman (within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulations), generally will be 
subject to information reporting and backup withholding, unless the Non-U.S. Holder properly certifies under penalties of perjury as to its non-U.S. 
status  (generally  on  IRS  Form  W-8BEN,  W-8BEN-E,  W-8ECI,  or  W-8EXP,  as  applicable)  and  certain  other  conditions  are  met  or  the  Non-U.S. 
Holder otherwise establishes an exemption. 

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, a Non-Corporate U.S. Holder or Non-U.S. Holder generally may obtain a credit for any amount 
withheld  against  its  liability  for  U.S.  federal  income  tax  (and  obtain  a  refund  of  any  amounts  withheld  in  excess  of  such  liability)  by  accurately 
completing and timely filing a U.S. federal income tax return with the IRS.

Non-United States Tax Considerations

Marshall  Islands  Tax  Considerations.  Because  we  and  our  subsidiaries  do  not,  and  do  not  expect  that  we  or  they  will,  conduct  business, 
transactions or operations in the Republic of the Marshall Islands, and because all documentation related to issuances of shares of our common 
stock  was  and  is  expected  to  be  executed  outside  of  the  Republic  of  the  Marshall  Islands,  under  current  Marshall  Islands  law,  holders  of  our 
common stock that are not citizens of and do not reside in, maintain offices in, or engage in business, operations, or transactions in the Republic of 
the  Marshall  Islands  will  not  be  subject  to  Marshall  Islands  taxation  or  withholding  on  dividends  we  make  to  our  shareholders.  In  addition,  such 
shareholders will not be subject to Marshall Islands stamp, capital gains or other taxes on the purchase, ownership or disposition of our common 
stock, and they will not be required by the Republic of the Marshall Islands to file a tax return relating to the common stock.

It  is  the  responsibility  of  each  shareholder  to  investigate  the  legal  and  tax  consequences,  under  the  laws  of  pertinent  jurisdictions,  including  the 
Marshall  Islands,  of  such  shareholder's  investment  in  us. Accordingly,  each  shareholder  is  urged  to  consult  a  tax  counsel  or  other  advisor  with 
regard to those matters. Further, it is the responsibility of each shareholder to file all state, local and non-U.S., as well as U.S. federal tax returns 
that may be required of such shareholder.

Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risk from foreign currency fluctuations and changes in interest rates, bunker fuel prices and spot tanker market rates for 
vessels. We use foreign currency forward contracts, cross currency and interest rate swaps and forward freight agreements to manage currency, 
interest rate, bunker fuel price and spot tanker market rate risks but we do not use these financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. 
Please read “Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 15 – Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.”

Foreign Currency Fluctuation Risk

Our primary economic environment is the international shipping market. Transactions in this market generally utilize the U.S. Dollar. Consequently, 
a  substantial  majority  of  our  revenues  and  most  of  our  operating  costs  are  in  U.S.  Dollars.  We  incur  certain  voyage  expenses,  vessel  operating 
expenses, dry docking and overhead costs in foreign currencies, the most significant of which are the Australian Dollar, British Pound, Canadian 
Dollar, Euro, Norwegian Krone and Singaporean Dollar. There is a risk that currency fluctuations will have a negative effect on the value of cash 
flows.

In some cases, we hedge our near-term foreign currency exposure but this hedging does not exceed three years forward.

79

As at December 31, 2020, we were not committed to any foreign currency forward contracts.

Although the majority of our transactions, assets and liabilities are denominated in U.S. Dollars, certain of our subsidiaries have foreign currency-
denominated  liabilities. There  is  a  risk  that  currency  fluctuations  will  have  a  negative  effect  on  the  value  of  our  cash  flows. As  at  December  31, 
2020, we had Euro-denominated term loans of 125 million Euros ($152.7 million). We receive Euro-denominated revenue from certain of our time 
charters.  These  Euro  cash  receipts  generally  are  sufficient  to  pay  the  principal  and  interest  payments  on  our  Euro-denominated  term  loans. 
Consequently, we have not entered into any foreign currency forward contracts with respect to our Euro-denominated term loans, although there is 
no assurance that our net exposure to fluctuations in the Euro will not increase in the future. 

We enter into cross currency swaps in connection with our NOK bond issuances, and pursuant to these swaps we receive the principal amount in 
NOK on the maturity date of the swap, in exchange for payment of a fixed U.S. Dollar amount. In addition, the cross currency swaps exchange a 
receipt of floating interest in NOK based on NIBOR plus a margin for a payment of U.S. Dollar fixed interest. The purpose of the cross currency 
swaps is to economically hedge the foreign currency exposure on the payment of interest and principal of Teekay LNG's NOK-denominated bonds 
due in 2021 through 2025. In addition, the cross currency swaps economically hedge the interest rate exposure on the NOK bonds due in 2021 
through  2025.  We  have  not  designated,  for  accounting  purposes,  these  cross  currency  swaps  as  cash  flow  hedges  of  Teekay  LNG's  NOK-
denominated bonds due in 2021 through 2025. 

As at December 31, 2020, we were committed to the following cross currency swaps:

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes primarily through our borrowings that require us to make interest payments based on LIBOR, 
NIBOR  or  EURIBOR.  Significant  increases  in  interest  rates  could  adversely  affect  our  operating  margins,  results  of  operations  and  our  ability  to 
service our debt. We use interest rate swaps to reduce our exposure to market risk from changes in interest rates. Generally, our approach is to 
economically hedge a substantial majority of floating-rate debt associated with our vessels that are operating on long-term fixed-rate contracts. We 
manage the rest of our debt based on our outlook for interest rates and other factors. Please read "Item 3 – Risk Factors" for more details on the 
potential phasing out of LIBOR as an interest “benchmark”.

We are exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the counterparties to the interest rate swap agreements. In order to minimize 
counterparty risk, we only enter into derivative transactions with counterparties that are rated A- or better by Standard & Poor’s or A3 or better by 
Moody’s  at  the  time  of  the  transaction.  In  addition,  to  the  extent  possible  and  practical,  interest  rate  swaps  are  entered  into  with  different 
counterparties to reduce concentration risk.

The table below provides information about our financial instruments at December 31, 2020, that are sensitive to changes in interest rates, including 
our debt and obligations related to finance leases and interest rate swaps, but excluding any amounts related to our equity-accounted investments. 
For long-term debt and obligations related to finance leases, the table presents principal cash flows and related weighted-average interest rates by 
expected maturity dates. For interest rate swaps, the table presents notional amounts and weighted-average interest rates by expected contractual 
maturity dates.

Interest payments on U.S. Dollar-denominated debt and interest rate swaps are based on LIBOR. The repayment amounts give effect to the refinancing completed
in February 2021 of one of Teekay LNG's term loans scheduled to mature in 2021 with a new $191.5 million term loan maturing in 2026 (please read “Item 18 – 
Financial Statements: Note 23 – Subsequent Events").

Interest payments on Euro-denominated debt and interest rate swaps are based on EURIBOR.

Euro-denominated and NOK-denominated amounts have been converted to U.S. Dollars using the prevailing exchange rate as of December 31, 2020.

Interest payments on Teekay LNG's NOK-denominated debt and on Teekay LNG's cross currency swaps are based on NIBOR. Teekay LNG's NOK-denominated
debt has been economically hedged with cross currency swaps, to swap all interest and principal payments at maturity into U.S. Dollars, with the interest payments 
fixed at rates between 5.74% to 7.89%, and the transfer of principal fixed at $360.5 million upon maturities.

The amount of obligations related to finance leases represents the present value of minimum lease payments together with our purchase obligation, as applicable.

(7) Gives  effect  to  the  purchase  options  declared  by  Teekay  Tankers  in  November  2020  to  acquire  two  Suezmax  tankers  in  May  2021  under  the  sale-leaseback

arrangements described in "Item 18 - Financial Statements: Note 10 - Obligations Related to Finance Leases".

(8)

In March 2021, Teekay Tankers declared purchase options to acquire six Aframax tankers in September 2021 for a total cost of $128.8 million, under the sale-
leaseback  arrangements  described  in  "Item  18  -  Financial  Statements:  Note  10  -  Obligations  Related  to  Finance  Leases".  Giving  effect  to  this  transaction,  the 
scheduled  repayments  of  obligations  related  to  finance  leases  are  $246.0  million  (2021),  $59.1  million  (2022),  $62.1  million  (2023),  $65.0  million  (2024),  $68.2
million (2025) and $766.9 million (thereafter).

(9)

The average interest rate is the weighted-average interest rate implicit in the obligations related to fixed-rate finance leases at the inception of the leases.

(10) The average variable receive rate for our U.S. Dollar-denominated interest rate swaps is set at 3-month or 6-month LIBOR.

(11) The average variable receive rate for our Euro-denominated interest rate swaps is set at 1-month EURIBOR or 6-month EURIBOR.

Commodity Price Risk

From time to time, we may use bunker fuel swap contracts relating to a portion of our bunker fuel expenditures. As at December 31, 2020, we were 
not committed to any bunker fuel swap contracts.

Spot Tanker Market Rate Risk

We are exposed to fluctuations in spot tanker market rates which can adversely affect our revenues. To reduce its exposure, Teekay Tankers uses 
forward freight agreements (or FFAs) in non-hedge-related transactions to increase or decrease its exposure to spot market rates, within defined 
limits.  Net  gains  and  losses  from  FFAs  are  recorded  within  realized  and  unrealized  losses  on  non-designated  derivative  instruments  in  our 
consolidated statements of income (loss). As at December 31, 2020, Teekay Tankers was not committed to any forward freight agreements.

Item 15. Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (or the 
Exchange  Act))  that  are  designed  to  ensure  that  (i)  information  required  to  be  disclosed  in  our  reports  that  are  filed  or  submitted  under  the 
Exchange  Act,  are  recorded,  processed,  summarized,  and  reported  within  the  time  periods  specified  in  the  SEC’s  rules  and  forms,  and 
(ii) information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our
management, including the principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure.

We  conducted  an  evaluation  of  our  disclosure  controls  and  procedures  under  the  supervision  and  with  the  participation  of  the  Chief  Executive 
Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based on the evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure 
controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2020.

The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer do not expect that our disclosure controls or internal controls will prevent all errors and all 
fraud. Although  our  disclosure  controls  and  procedures  were  designed  to  provide  reasonable  assurance  of  achieving  their  objectives,  a  control 
system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are 
met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered 
relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all 
control  issues  and  instances  of  fraud,  if  any,  within  us  have  been  detected.  These  inherent  limitations  include  the  realities  that  judgments  in 
decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the 
individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls 
also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in 
achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for us.

Our  internal  controls  are  designed  to  provide  reasonable  assurance  as  to  the  reliability  of  our  financial  reporting  and  the  preparation  and 
presentation  of  the  consolidated  financial  statements  for  external  purposes  in  accordance  with  accounting  principles  generally  accepted  in  the 
United States. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records 
that,  in  reasonable  detail,  accurately  and  fairly  reflect  the  transactions  and  dispositions  of  our  assets;  (2)  provide  reasonable  assurance  that 
transactions  are  recorded  as  necessary  to  permit  preparation  of  the  financial  statements  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting 
principles,  and  that  our  receipts  and  expenditures  are  being  made  in  accordance  with  authorizations  of  management  and  the  directors;  and 
(3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could
have a material effect on the financial statements.

We  conducted  an  evaluation  of  the  effectiveness  of  our  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  based  upon  the  framework  in  Internal  Control  – 
Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. This evaluation included review 
of  the  documentation  of  controls,  evaluation  of  the  design  effectiveness  of  controls,  testing  of  the  operating  effectiveness  of  controls  and  a 
conclusion on this evaluation.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements even when determined to be 
effective  and  can  only  provide  reasonable  assurance  with  respect  to  financial  statement  preparation  and  presentation. Also,  projections  of  any 
evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that 
the  degree  of  compliance  with  the  policies  and  procedures  may  deteriorate.  However,  based  on  the  evaluation,  management  believes  that  we 
maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020.

Our  independent  auditors,  KPMG  LLP,  an  independent  registered  public  accounting  firm,  have  audited  the  accompanying  consolidated  financial 
statements  and  the  effectiveness  of  our  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  as  of  December  31,  2020.  Their  attestation  report  on  the 
effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting can be found on page F-3 of this Annual Report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

82

During  the  year  ended  December  31,  2020,  we  completed  the  implementation  of  a  new  global  accounting  system  designed  for  greater  system 
enablement and automation of the accounting and financial reporting processes. Although this implementation digitized certain accounting activities 
and allowed for enhanced capabilities within the accounting function, it did not significantly affect the overall control and procedures followed by us 
in establishing internal controls over financial reporting. 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the year 
ended December 31, 2020 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 16A. Audit Committee Financial Expert

The  Board  has  determined  that  Director  and  Chair  of  the Audit  Committee, Alan  Semple,  qualifies  as  an  audit  committee  financial  expert  and  is 
independent under applicable NYSE and SEC standards.

Item 16B. Code of Ethics

We have adopted a Standards of Business Conduct Policy that applies to all employees and directors. This document is available under “Investors 
– Teekay Corporation – Governance” from the home page of our website (www.teekay.com). We also intend to disclose under “Investors – Teekay
Corporation – Governance” in the Investors section of our web site any waivers to or amendments of our Standards of Business Conduct Policy that
benefit our directors and executive officers.

Item 16C. Principal Accountant Fees and Services

Our principal accountant for 2020 and 2019 was KPMG LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants. The following table shows the fees Teekay and

Audit  fees  represent  fees  for  professional  services  provided  in  connection  with  the  audits  of  our  consolidated  financial  statements  and  effectiveness  of  internal 
control  over  financial  reporting,  reviews  of  our  quarterly  consolidated  financial  statements  and  audit  services  provided  in  connection  with  other  statutory  or
regulatory  filings  for  Teekay  or  our  subsidiaries  including  professional  services  in  connection  with  the  review  of  our  regulatory  filings  for  public  offerings  of  our 
subsidiaries. Audit  fees  for 2020  and  2019  include  approximately  $1,099,700  and  $928,300,  respectively,  of  fees  paid  to  KPMG  LLP  by Teekay  LNG  that  were 
approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the general partner of Teekay LNG. Audit fees for 2020 and 2019 include approximately $645,900 
and $588,200, respectively, of fees paid to KPMG LLP by our subsidiary Teekay Tankers that were approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of 
Teekay Tankers.

Audit-related fees consisted of employee benefit plan audits and attestation services for regulatory requirements.

For 2019, tax fees principally included corporate tax compliance fees.

The  Audit  Committee  has  the  authority  to  pre-approve  audit-related  and  non-audit  services  not  prohibited  by  law  to  be  performed  by  our 
independent auditors and associated fees. Engagements for proposed services either may be separately pre-approved by the Audit Committee or 
entered  into  pursuant  to  detailed  pre-approval  policies  and  procedures  established  by  the Audit  Committee,  as  long  as  the Audit  Committee  is 
informed on a timely basis of any engagement entered into on that basis. The Audit Committee separately pre-approved all engagements and fees 
paid to our principal accountants in 2020 and 2019.

•

•

In  lieu  of  obtaining  shareholder  approval  prior  to  the  adoption  of  equity  compensation  plans  or  prior  to  certain  equity  issuances  (including,
among  others,  issuing  20%  or  more  of  our  outstanding  shares  of  common  stock  or  voting  power  in  a  transaction),  the  Board  of  Directors
approves such adoption or issuance; and

One member of the Board of Directors’ Nominating and Governance Committee is not independent under NYSE standards.

There are no other significant ways in which our corporate governance practices differ from those followed by U.S. domestic companies under the 
listing requirements of the NYSE.

The Board of Directors and Shareholders

TEEKAY CORPORATION

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Teekay Corporation and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2020 
and 2019, the related consolidated statements of income (loss), comprehensive income (loss), cash flows, and changes in total equity for each of 
the  years  in  the  three‑year  period  ended  December  31,  2020,  and  the  related  notes  and  financial  statement  schedule  I  (collectively,  the 
consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position 
of  the  Company  as  of  December  31,  2020  and  2019,  and  the  results  of  its  operations  and  its  cash  flows  for  each  of  the  years  in  the  three‑year 
period ended December 31, 2020, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We  also  have  audited,  in  accordance  with  the  standards  of  the  Public  Company  Accounting  Oversight  Board  (United  States)  (PCAOB),  the 
Company’s  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  as  of  December  31,  2020,  based  on  the  criteria  established  in  Internal  Control  –  Integrated 
Framework  (2013)  issued  by  the  Committee  of  Sponsoring  Organizations  of  the  Treadway  Commission,  and  our  report  dated  April  1,  2021 
expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Change in Accounting Principles 

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has changed its accounting policies as of January 1, 2019 due to the 
adoption of ASU 2016-02 Leases and ASU 2017-12 Derivatives and Hedging – Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities, and 
has  changed  its  accounting  policies  as  of  January  1,  2020  due  to  the  adoption  of  ASU  2016-13  Financial  Instruments—Credit  Losses: 
Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU 2016-13).

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 
consolidated  financial  statements  based  on  our  audits.  We  are  a  public  accounting  firm  registered  with  the  PCAOB  and  are  required  to  be 
independent  with  respect  to  the  Company  in  accordance  with  the  U.S.  federal  securities  laws  and  the  applicable  rules  and  regulations  of  the 
Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain 
reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our 
audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or 
fraud,  and  performing  procedures  that  respond  to  those  risks.  Such  procedures  included  examining,  on  a  test  basis,  evidence  regarding  the 
amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant 
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits 
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. 

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were 
communicated  or  required  to  be  communicated  to  the  audit  committee  and  that:  (1)  relate  to  accounts  or  disclosures  that  are  material  to  the 
consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit 
matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the 
critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Recoverability of vessels and equipment in the Teekay LNG liquefied gas carriers segment and Teekay Tankers conventional tankers segment

As discussed in Note 18 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $51.0 million in the year ended 
December 31, 2020 in relation to 7 multi-gas carriers in the Teekay LNG liquefied gas carriers segment, and an impairment charge of $65.4 million 
in the year ended December 31, 2020 in relation to 9 conventional tankers in the Teekay Tankers conventional tankers segment. As discussed in 
Note  1  to  the  consolidated  financial  statements,  the  Company  assesses  vessels  and  equipment  that  are  intended  to  be  held  and  used  in  the 
Company’s business for impairment when events or circumstances indicate the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. If the asset’s 
carrying  value  exceeds  the  undiscounted  cash  flows  expected  to  be  generated  over  its  remaining  useful  life,  the  carrying  value  of  the  asset  is 
reduced to its estimated fair value. Estimates of undiscounted expected cash flows involve, amongst others, assumptions about estimated future 
charter rates. The carrying value of vessels and equipment reported on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020, was $4,483.4 
million, which includes vessels and equipment in the Teekay LNG liquefied gas carriers and Teekay Tankers conventional tankers segments.

We  identified  the  assessment  of  the  recoverability  of  vessels  and  equipment  in  the  Teekay  LNG  liquefied  gas  carriers  and  Teekay  Tankers 
conventional tankers segments as a critical audit matter. Subjective auditor judgment was required to evaluate the estimated future charter rates 
used in determining the undiscounted expected cash flows. Changes in estimated future charter rates could have had a significant impact on the 
recoverability of vessels and equipment in these two segments.

The  following  are  the  primary  procedures  we  performed  to  address  this  critical  audit  matter.  We  evaluated  the  design  and  tested  the  operating 
effectiveness of an internal control related to the determination of the estimated future charter rates. We assessed a selection of estimated future 
charter rates by comparing them to historical rates and third-party industry publications for vessels with similar characteristics, including type and 
size.  We  compared  the  Company’s  historical  revenue  projections  to  actual  results  to  assess  the  Company’s  ability  to  accurately  project  future 
revenue. 

Allowance for credit losses of net investment in direct financing and sales-type leases

F - 1

As discussed in Note 11b to the consolidated financial statements, as a result of the adoption of ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020, the Company 
recorded  an  allowance  for  expected  credit  losses  for  its  net  investment  in  direct  financing  and  sales-type  leases  (net  investment  in  leases), 
including  those  within  equity-accounted  joint  ventures,  totaling  $51.3  million  on  January  1,  2020  and  $86.0  million  on  December  31,  2020.  The 
credit loss provision relates to the lease receivable component of these direct financing and sales-type leases and is determined using a historical 
loss rate method. 

We identified the assessment of the allowance for expected credit losses for the Company’s net investment in leases as a critical audit matter. In 
particular,  subjective  auditor  judgment  was  required  to  evaluate  certain  assumptions  and  inputs  involved  in  determining  the  historical  loss  rate. 
Certain  of  the  assumptions  and  inputs  in  the  determination  of  the  historical  loss  rate  were  based  in  part  on  estimates  of  the  occurrence  or  non-
occurrence of future events which impact the amount of recoveries earned or additional losses incurred. Changes in the historical loss rate could 
have had a significant impact on the credit loss provision for the Company’s net investment in leases.

The  following  are  the  primary  procedures  we  performed  to  address  this  critical  audit  matter.  We  evaluated  the  design  and  tested  the  operating 
effectiveness of certain internal controls related to the Company’s allowance for expected credit losses process. This included controls related to 
the determination of certain of the assumptions and inputs used to estimate the historical loss rate. We evaluated the Company’s historical loss rate 
estimate  by  testing  certain  inputs  and  assumptions  that  the  Company  used  and  considered  the  relevance  and  reliability  of  such  inputs  and 
assumptions.  We  compared  the  losses  incurred  to  date  to  historical  financial  results,  historical  charter  rates,  and  contractual  agreements.  We 
assessed a selection of projected charter rates used to estimate the amount of future recoveries earned by comparing them to historical rates and 
third-party industry publications for vessels with similar characteristics, including type, size, and age and to recent experience.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Shareholders

TEEKAY CORPORATION

Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting 

We have audited Teekay Corporation and subsidiaries’ (the Company) internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, based on 
the criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway 
Commission. In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 
2020, based on the criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of 
the Treadway Commission.

We  also  have  audited,  in  accordance  with  the  standards  of  the  Public  Company  Accounting  Oversight  Board  (United  States)  (PCAOB),  the 
consolidated  balance  sheets  of  the  Company  as  of  December  31,  2020  and  2019,  the  related  consolidated  statements  of  income  (loss), 
comprehensive income (loss), cash flows, and changes in total equity for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2020, and 
the  related  notes  and  financial  statement  schedule  I  (collectively,  the  consolidated  financial  statements),  and  our  report  dated  April  1,  2021 
expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

Basis for Opinion 

The  Company’s  management  is  responsible  for  maintaining  effective  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  and  for  its  assessment  of  the 
effectiveness  of  internal  control  over  financial  reporting,  included  in  the  accompanying  Management’s  Report  on  Internal  Control  over  Financial 
Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public 
accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal 
securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We  conducted  our  audit  in  accordance  with  the  standards  of  the  PCAOB. Those  standards  require  that  we  plan  and  perform  the  audit  to  obtain 
reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit of internal 
control  over  financial  reporting  included  obtaining  an  understanding  of  internal  control  over  financial  reporting,  assessing  the  risk  that  a  material 
weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also 
included  performing  such  other  procedures  as  we  considered  necessary  in  the  circumstances.  We  believe  that  our  audit  provides  a  reasonable 
basis for our opinion.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting 

An  entity’s  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  is  a  process  designed  to  provide  reasonable  assurance  regarding  the  reliability  of  financial 
reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. An entity’s 
internal  control  over  financial  reporting  includes  those  policies  and  procedures  that  (1)  pertain  to  the  maintenance  of  records  that,  in  reasonable 
detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the entity; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions 
are  recorded  as  necessary  to  permit  preparation  of  financial  statements  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles,  and  that 
receipts and expenditures of the entity are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the entity; and (3) 
provide  reasonable  assurance  regarding  prevention  or  timely  detection  of  unauthorized  acquisition,  use,  or  disposition  of  the  entity’s  assets  that 
could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because  of  its  inherent  limitations,  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  may  not  prevent  or  detect  misstatements.  Also,  projections  of  any 
evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that 
the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

TEEKAY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(all tabular amounts stated in thousands of U.S. dollars, other than share data and unless otherwise indicated)

1.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of presentation

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (or GAAP).
They  include  the  accounts  of  Teekay  Corporation  (or  Teekay),  which  is  incorporated  under  the  laws  of  the  Republic  of  the  Marshall  Islands,  its
wholly-owned  or  controlled  subsidiaries  and  any  variable  interest  entities  (or  VIEs)  of  which  Teekay  is  the  primary  beneficiary  (collectively,  the
Company).

Certain of Teekay’s significant non-wholly-owned subsidiaries are consolidated in these financial statements even though Teekay owns less than a
50% ownership interest in the subsidiaries. These significant subsidiaries include the following publicly traded subsidiaries (collectively, the Public
Subsidiaries): Teekay LNG Partners L.P. (or Teekay LNG) and Teekay Tankers Ltd. (or Teekay Tankers). As of December 31, 2020, Teekay owned
a 42.4% interest in Teekay LNG (33.9% – December 31, 2019), including common units and its general partner interest, and 28.6% of the capital
stock of Teekay Tankers (28.7% – December 31, 2019), including Teekay Tankers’ outstanding shares of Class B common stock, which entitle the
holders to five votes per share, subject to a 49% aggregate Class B Common Stock voting power maximum. While Teekay owns less than 50% of
Teekay LNG and Teekay Tankers, Teekay maintains control of Teekay LNG by virtue of its 100% ownership interest in the general partner of Teekay
LNG,  which  is  a  master  limited  partnership,  and  maintains  control  of  Teekay  Tankers  through  its  ownership  of  a  sufficient  number  of  Class  A 
common shares and Class B common shares, which provide increased voting rights, to maintain a majority voting interest in Teekay Tankers and
thus consolidates these subsidiaries.

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect  the  amounts  reported  in  the  financial  statements  and  accompanying  notes.  Actual  results  may  differ  from  those  estimates.  Significant
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

In  March  2020,  the  World  Health  Organization  declared  the  outbreak  of  a  novel  coronavirus  (or  COVID-19)  as  a  pandemic.  Given  the  dynamic
nature of these circumstances, the full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may have direct or indirect impact on the Company's business and
the related financial reporting implications cannot be reasonably estimated at this time, although it could materially affect the Company's business,
results  of  operations  and  financial  condition  in  the  future.  COVID-19  has  resulted  and  may  continue  to  result  in  a  significant  decline  in  global
demand  for  oil. As  the  Company's  business  includes  the  transportation  of  crude  oil  and  refined  petroleum  products  on  behalf  of  customers,  any
significant decrease in demand for the cargo the Company transports could adversely affect demand for the Company's vessels and services. Spot
tanker rates have come under pressure since mid-May 2020 as a result of record OPEC+ oil production cuts and lower production from other oil
producing  countries,  which  reduced  crude  exports,  and  the  unwinding  of  floating  storage.  COVID-19  has  also  been  a  contributing  factor  to  the
decline in short-term charter rates and the increase in certain crewing-related costs, which has had an impact on the Company's cash flows, and
was a contributing factor to the write-down of certain tankers owned by Teekay Tankers during the year ended December 31, 2020, as described in
Note 18 - Write-down and Loss on Sale. During the year ended December 31, 2020, COVID-19 was also a contributing factor to the write-down of
certain of Teekay LNG's seven multi-gas vessels and one floating production storage and offloading (or FPSO) unit, as described in Note 18 - Write-
down and Loss on Sale, as well as being a contributing factor to the reduction in certain tax accruals as described in Note 21 - Income Taxes.

Where Teekay’s ownership interest in a consolidated subsidiary is less than 100%, the non-controlling interests’ share of these non-wholly-owned
subsidiaries is reported in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as a separate component of equity. The non-controlling interests’ share of
the net income of these non-wholly-owned subsidiaries is reported in the Company’s consolidated statements of income (loss) as a deduction from
the Company’s net income (loss) to arrive at net (loss) income attributable to the shareholders of Teekay.

The basis for attributing net income or loss of each non-wholly-owned subsidiary to the controlling interest and the non-controlling interests (with the
exception of Teekay LNG until May 11, 2020, when Teekay and Teekay LNG agreed to eliminate all of Teekay LNG's incentive distribution rights) is
based on the relative ownership interests of the non-controlling interests compared to the controlling interest (Teekay), which is consistent with how
dividends and distributions were paid or were payable for these non-wholly-owned subsidiaries. In periods when vessels are sold by Teekay LNG or
Teekay Tankers that were previously purchased from wholly-owned subsidiaries of Teekay, the amount of the gain or loss from sale allocated to the
controlling interest and non-controlling interest is adjusted to reflect the non-controlling interest’s share of the deferred gain or loss that was incurred
when Teekay previously sold these vessels from its wholly-owned subsidiaries to its non-wholly-owned subsidiaries Teekay LNG or Teekay Tankers.
As reflected in the table below, during 2018 and 2019, such vessel sales by Teekay LNG resulted in increases (decreases) in net income of Teekay
LNG  attributable  to  the  controlling  interest  (non-controlling  interest)  by $6.1  million  and  $7.5  million,  respectively. As  reflected  in  the  table  below,
during 2019 and 2020, such vessel sales by Teekay Tankers resulted in an increases (decreases) in net income of Teekay Tankers attributable to
the non-controlling interest (controlling interest) by $18.4 million and $43.2 million, respectively.

Teekay LNG has limited partners and one general partner. Teekay LNG's general partner is wholly-owned by Teekay. Teekay LNG's limited partners
hold common units and preferred units. For each quarterly period, the method of attributing Teekay LNG’s net income (loss) of that period to the
non-controlling interests of Teekay LNG begins by attributing net income (loss) of Teekay LNG to the non-controlling interests which hold 100% of
the preferred units of Teekay LNG based on the amount of preferred unit distributions declared for the quarterly period.

Until May 11, 2020, when Teekay and Teekay LNG agreed to eliminate all of Teekay LNG's incentive distribution rights, the remaining net income
(loss) to be attributed to the controlling interest and the non-controlling interests of Teekay LNG was then divided into two components. The first
component consisted of the cash distribution that Teekay LNG would declare and pay to limited and general partners for that quarterly period (or the
Distributed Earnings). The second component consisted of the difference between (a) the net income (loss) of Teekay LNG that was available to be
allocated  to  the  common  unitholders  and  the  general  partner  and  (b)  the  amount  of  the  first  component  cash  distribution  (or  the  Undistributed
Earnings). The portion of the Distributed Earnings that was allocated to the non-controlling interests was the amount of the cash distribution that
Teekay  LNG  would  declare  and  pay  to  the  non-controlling  interests  for  that  quarterly  period. The  portion  of  the  Undistributed  Earnings  that  was
allocated to the non-controlling interests was based on the relative ownership percentages of the non-controlling interests of Teekay LNG compared
to the controlling interest. The controlling interests included both limited partner common units and the general partner interest.

the relative ownership interests in the non-wholly-owned subsidiary. As such, any dividends or distributions paid to, or capital contributions received 
from,  the  non-controlling  interests  are  reflected  as  a  reduction  (dividends  or  distributions)  or  an  increase  (capital  contributions)  in  non-controlling 
interest in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

When Teekay’s non-wholly-owned subsidiaries issue additional equity interests to non-controlling interests, Teekay is effectively selling a portion of 
the non-wholly-owned subsidiaries. Consequently, the proceeds received by the subsidiaries from their issuance of additional equity interests are 
allocated  between  non-controlling  interests  and  retained  earnings  in  the  Company’s  consolidated  balance  sheets.  The  portion  allocated  to  non-
controlling interests on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets consists of the carrying value of the portion of the non-wholly-owned subsidiary 
that is effectively disposed of, with the remaining amount attributable to the controlling interests, which consists of the Company’s dilution gain or 
loss that is reflected in retained earnings.

Foreign currency

The  consolidated  financial  statements  are  stated  in  U.S.  Dollars  and  the  functional  currency  of  the  Company  is  the  U.S.  Dollar.  Transactions 
involving other currencies during the year are converted into U.S. Dollars using the exchange rates in effect at the time of the transactions. At the 
balance sheet date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar are translated to reflect the year-
end exchange rates. Resulting gains or losses are reflected in foreign exchange (loss) gain in the accompanying consolidated statements of income 
(loss).

Revenues

The Company's FPSO contracts, time charters and voyage charters include both a lease component, consisting of the lease of the vessel, and a 
non-lease  component,  consisting  of  the  operation  of  the  vessel  for  the  customer.  The  Company  has  elected  not  to  separate  the  non-lease 
component from the lease component for all such charters where the lease component is classified as an operating lease and certain other required 
criteria are met, and to account for the combined component as an operating lease. Time-charter contracts accounted for as direct financing leases 
and sales type leases contain both a lease component (lease of the vessel) and a non-lease component (operation of the vessel). The Company 
has allocated the contract consideration between the lease component and non-lease component on a relative standalone selling price basis. The 
standalone selling price of the non-lease component has been determined using a cost-plus approach, whereby the Company estimates the cost to 
operate the vessel using cost benchmarking studies prepared by a third party, when available, or internal estimates when not available, plus a profit 
margin.  The  standalone  selling  price  of  the  lease  component  has  been  determined  using  an  adjusted  market  approach,  whereby  the  Company 
calculates  a  rate  excluding  the  operating  component  based  on  a  market  time-charter  rate  from  published  broker  estimates,  when  available,  or 
internal estimates when not available. Given that there are no observable standalone selling prices for either of these two components, judgment is 
required in determining the standalone selling price of each component.

FPSO contracts and time charters

Revenues from FPSO contracts and time charters accounted for as operating leases are recognized by the Company on a straight-line basis daily 
over the term of the contract. If collectability of the receipts from these contracts accounted for as operating leases is not probable, revenue that 
would have otherwise been recognized is limited to the amount collected from the charterer.

(all tabular amounts stated in thousands of U.S. dollars, other than share data and unless otherwise indicated)

Upon commencement of an FPSO contract or time charter accounted for as a sales-type lease or direct financing lease, the carrying value of the 
vessel  is  derecognized  and  the  net  investment  in  the  lease  is  recognized,  based  on  the  fair  value  of  the  vessel.  For  direct  financing  leases  and 
sales-type leases, the lease element of time charter hire receipts is allocated to the lease receivable and revenues over the term of the lease using 
the effective interest rate method. The non-lease element of receipts is recognized by the Company on a straight-line basis daily over the term of 
the  contract.  Drydock  cost  reimbursements  allocable  to  the  non-lease  element  of  a  time-charter  are  recognized  on  a  straight-line  basis  over  the 
period between the previous scheduled dry dock and the next scheduled dry dock. In addition, if collectability of non-lease receipts of payments 
from a customer is not probable, any such receipts are recognized as a liability unless the receipts are non-refundable and either the contract has 
been terminated or the Company has no remaining performance obligations. 

The Company does not recognize revenues during days that the vessel is off-hire. When the FPSO contract or time charter contains a profit-sharing 
agreement,  drydock  cost  reimbursements  for  time  charters  accounted  for  as  operating  leases,  or  other  variable  consideration,  including 
performance-based metrics such as production tariffs and other operational performance measures, the Company recognizes this revenue in the 
period  in  which  the  changes  in  facts  and  circumstances  on  which  the  variable  charter  hire  payments  are  based  occur.  In  addition,  performance 
based revenue based on a multi-period performance-based metric that is allocable to non-lease services provided is estimated and to the extent 
that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the 
variable  consideration  is  subsequently  resolved  and  recognize  such  estimate  of  revenue  over  the  performance  period.  Where  the  charterer  is 
responsible  for  the  operation  of  the  vessel,  the  Company  offsets  any  vessel  operating  expenses  it  incurs  against  reimbursements  from  the 
charterer.

The  Company's  accounting  policy  for  the  reimbursement  of  drydocking  expenditures  was  impacted  by  the  adoption  of  ASU  2016-02  (see 
accounting pronouncements below).

Voyage charters 

Revenues  from  voyage  charters  are  recognized  on  a  proportionate  performance  method.  The  Company  uses  a  discharge-to-discharge  basis  in 
determining  proportionate  performance  for  all  spot  voyages  that  contain  a  lease  and  a  load-to-discharge  basis  in  determining  proportionate 
performance for all spot voyages that do not contain a lease. The Company does not begin recognizing revenue until a charter has been agreed to 
by  the  customer  and  the  Company,  even  if  the  vessel  has  discharged  its  cargo  and  is  sailing  to  the  anticipated  load  port  on  its  next  voyage. 
Revenues  from  the  Company’s  vessels  performing  voyage  charters  subject  to  revenue  sharing  agreements  (or  RSAs)  follow  the  same  revenue 
recognition policy as voyage charters not subject to RSAs. The difference between the net revenue earned by a vessel of the Company performing 
voyage charters subject to RSAs and its allocated share of the aggregate net contribution is reflected within voyage expenses. The consolidated 
balance sheets reflect in accrued revenue the accrued portion of revenues for those voyages that commence prior to the balance sheet date and 
complete after the balance sheet date, and reflect in deferred revenues or other long-term liabilities the deferred portion of revenues which will be 
earned in subsequent periods. 

Bareboat charters

Revenues from bareboat charters accounted for as operating leases are recognized by the Company on a straight-line basis daily over the term of 
the  charter.  If  collectability  of  the  bareboat  hire  receipts  from  bareboat  charters  accounted  for  as  operating  leases  is  not  probable,  revenue  that 
would have otherwise been recognized is limited to the amount collected from the charterer.

Upon  commencement  of  a  bareboat  charter  accounted  for  as  a  sales-type  lease,  the  carrying  value  of  the  vessel  is  derecognized  and  the  net 
investment  in  the  lease  is  recognized,  based  on  the  fair  value  of  the  vessel.  For  direct  financing  leases  and  sales-type  leases,  bareboat  hire 
receipts are allocated to the lease receivable and voyage revenues over the term of the lease using the effective interest rate method. 

Management fees and other

Revenues  are  also  earned  from  the  management  of  third-party  vessels  and,  until  the  April  2020  sale  by  Teekay  Tankers  of  its  LNG  terminal 
management  business,  LNG  terminals.  The  Company  recognizes  fixed  revenue  on  a  straight-line  basis  over  the  duration  of  the  management 
contract  and  variable  revenue,  such  as  monthly  commissions,  in  the  month  they  are  earned.  The  Company  presents  the  reimbursement  of 
expenditures it incurs to provide the promised goods or services as revenue if it controls such goods or services before they are transferred to the 
customer and presents such reimbursement of expenditures as an offset against the expenditures if the Company does not control the goods or 
services them before they are transferred to the customer. 

Operating expenses

Voyage expenses are all expenses unique to a particular voyage, including fuel expenses, port fees, cargo loading and unloading expenses, canal 
tolls, agency fees and commissions. In addition, the difference between the net revenue earned by a vessel of the Company performing voyage 
charters  subject  to  an  RSA  and  its  allocated  share  of  the  aggregate  net  contribution  is  reflected  within  voyage  expenses.  The  Company,  as 
shipowner, pays voyage expenses under voyage charters. The Company’s customers pay voyage expenses under time charters, except when the 
vessel is off-hire during the term of a time charter in which case the Company pays voyage expenses. 

Vessel operating expenses include crewing, ship management services, repairs and maintenance, insurance, stores, lube oils and communication 
expenses. 

Voyage expenses and vessel operating expenses are recognized when incurred, except when the Company incurs pre-operational costs related to 
the repositioning of a vessel that relates directly to a specific customer contract, that generates or enhances resources of the Company that will be 
used in satisfying performance obligations in the future, whereby such costs are expected to be recovered via the customer contract. In this case, 
such costs are deferred and amortized over the duration of the customer contract.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company classifies all highly liquid investments with an original maturity date of three months or less as cash and cash equivalents.

Restricted cash

The  Company  maintains  restricted  cash  deposits  relating  to  certain  term  loans,  collateral  for  derivatives,  project  tenders,  leasing  arrangements, 
amounts received from charterers to be used only for dry-docking expenditures and emergency repairs and other obligations.

Accounts receivable and other loan receivables

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The consolidated balance sheets reflect in accounts receivable, 
any amounts where the right to consideration is conditioned upon the passage of time, and, in prepaid expenses and other, any accrued revenue 
where the right to consideration is conditioned upon something other than the passage of time.

The Company’s advances to equity-accounted for investments and any other investments in loan receivables are recorded at cost. 

Vessels and equipment

All  pre-delivery  costs  incurred  during  the  construction  of  newbuildings,  including  interest,  supervision  and  technical  costs,  are  capitalized.  The 
acquisition  cost  and  all  costs  incurred  to  restore  used  vessels  purchased  by  the  Company  to  the  standard  required  to  properly  service  the 
Company’s customers are capitalized.

Interest  costs  capitalized  to  vessels  and  equipment  for  the  years  ended  December  31,  2020,  2019,  and  2018,  aggregated  $nil,  $0.3  million  and 
$14.8 million, respectively.

Vessel capital modifications include the addition of new equipment or certain modifications to the vessel that are aimed at improving or increasing 
the operational efficiency and functionality of the asset. This type of expenditure is capitalized and depreciated over the estimated useful life of the 
modification. Expenditures covering recurring routine repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over a vessel’s estimated useful life, less an estimated residual value. Depreciation is calculated 
using an estimated useful life of 25 years for tankers carrying crude oil and refined product, 30 years for liquefied petroleum gas (or LPG) carriers 
and  35  years  for  LNG  carriers,  commencing  the  date  the  vessel  is  delivered  from  the  shipyard,  or  a  shorter  period  if  regulations  prevent  the 
Company from operating the vessels for 25 years, 30 years, or 35 years, respectively. FPSO units are depreciated using an estimated useful life 
of 25 years commencing the date the unit is installed at the oil field and is in a condition that is ready to operate, or a shorter period if commercial 
considerations dictate otherwise. Depreciation of vessels and equipment, excluding amortization of dry-docking expenditures, for the years ended 
December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018 aggregated $209.6 million, $239.9 million and $244.0 million, respectively. Depreciation includes depreciation 
of all owned vessels and amortization of vessels accounted for as finance leases.

Generally, the Company dry docks each conventional oil tanker and gas carrier every two and a half years to five years. FPSO units are generally 
not dry docked and maintenance is performed on these units while at sea. The Company capitalizes certain costs incurred during dry docking and 
amortizes  those  costs  on  a  straight-line  basis  from  the  completion  of  a  dry  docking  to  the  estimated  completion  of  the  next  dry  docking.  The 
Company  includes  in  capitalized  dry-docking  costs  those  costs  incurred  as  part  of  the  dry  docking  to  meet  classification  and  regulatory 
requirements. The Company expenses costs related to routine repairs and maintenance performed during dry docking, and for annual class survey 
costs on the Company’s FPSO units.

The following table summarizes the change in the Company’s capitalized dry-docking costs from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2020:

Vessels  and  equipment  that  are  intended  to  be  held  and  used  in  the  Company's  business  are  assessed  for  impairment  when  events  or 
circumstances  indicate  the  carrying  value  of  the  asset  may  not  be  recoverable.  If  the  asset’s  net  carrying  value  exceeds  the  estimated  net 
undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated over its remaining useful life, and the fair value of the asset is less than its carrying value, the 
carrying value of the asset is reduced to its estimated fair value. The estimated fair value for the Company’s impaired vessels is determined using 
discounted  cash  flows  or  appraised  values.  In  cases  where  an  active  second-hand  sale  and  purchase  market  does  not  exist,  or  in  certain  other 
cases, the Company uses a discounted cash flow approach to estimate the fair value of an impaired vessel. In cases where an active second-hand 
sale and purchase market exists, an appraised value is used to estimate the fair value of an impaired vessel. An appraised value is generally the 
amount the Company would expect to receive if it were to sell the vessel. Such appraisal is based on second-hand sale and purchase data, and 
other information provided by third parties.

TEEKAY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(all tabular amounts stated in thousands of U.S. dollars, other than share data and unless otherwise indicated)

Vessels  and  equipment  that  are  “held  for  sale”  are  measured  at  the  lower  of  their  carrying  amount  or  fair  value  less  costs  to  sell  and  are  not 
depreciated while classified as held for sale. Interest and other expenses and related liabilities attributable to vessels and equipment classified as 
held for sale continue to be recognized as incurred.

Equity-accounted investments

The Company’s investments in certain joint ventures and other partially-owned entities in which the Company does not control the entity but has the 
ability  to  exercise  significant  influence  over  the  operating  and  financial  policies  of  the  entity  are  accounted  for  using  the  equity  method  of 
accounting. Under the equity method of accounting, investments are stated at initial cost and are adjusted for subsequent additional investments 
and the Company’s proportionate share of earnings or losses and distributions. The Company evaluates its equity-accounted for investments for 
impairment  when  events  or  circumstances  indicate  that  the  carrying  value  of  such  investments  may  have  experienced  an  other-than-temporary 
decline  in  value  below  its  carrying  value.  If  an  equity-accounted  for  investment  experiences  an  other-than-temporary  decline  in  value  and  if  the 
estimated  fair  value  is  less  than  the  carrying  value,  the  carrying  value  is  written  down  to  its  estimated  fair  value  and  the  resulting  impairment  is 
recorded in the Company's consolidated statements of income (loss).

Debt issuance costs

Debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability, including fees, commissions and legal expenses, are deferred and presented as a direct 
reduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability and amortized on an effective interest rate method over the term of the relevant loan. Debt 
issuance costs which are not attributable to a specific debt liability or where the debt issuance costs exceed the carrying value of the related debt 
liability  (primarily  undrawn  revolving  credit  facilities)  are  deferred  and  presented  as  non-current  assets  in  the  Company's  consolidated  balance 
sheets. Amortization of debt issuance costs is included in interest expense in the Company's consolidated statements of income (loss).

Fees paid to substantially amend a non-revolving credit facility are associated with the extinguishment of the old debt instrument and included in 
determining the debt extinguishment gain or loss to be recognized. Other costs incurred with third parties directly related to the extinguishment are 
deferred and presented as a direct reduction from the carrying amount of the replacement debt instrument and amortized using the effective interest 
rate  method.  In  addition,  any  unamortized  debt  issuance  costs  associated  with  the  old  debt  instrument  are  written  off.  If  the  amendment  is 
considered not to be a substantial amendment, then the fees would be associated with the replacement or modified debt instrument and, along with 
any existing unamortized premium, discount and unamortized debt issuance costs, would be amortized as an adjustment of interest expense over 
the remaining term of the replacement or modified debt instrument using the effective interest method. Other related costs incurred with third parties 
directly related to the modification, other than the loan amendment fee, are expensed as incurred.

Fees  paid  to  amend  a  revolving  credit  facility  are  deferred  and  amortized  over  the  term  of  the  modified  revolving  credit  facility.  If  the  borrowing 
capacity  of  the  revolving  credit  facility  increases  as  a  result  of  the  amendment,  unamortized  debt  issuance  costs  of  the  original  revolving  credit 
facility  are  amortized  over  the  remaining  term  of  the  modified  revolving  credit  facility.  If  the  borrowing  capacity  of  the  revolving  credit  facility 
decreases as a result of the amendment, a proportionate amount, based on the reduction in borrowing capacity, of the unamortized debt issuance 
costs of the original revolving credit facility are written off and the remaining amount is amortized over the remaining term of the modified revolving 
credit facility.

Credit losses

The  Company  utilizes  a  lifetime  expected  credit  loss  measurement  objective  for  the  recognition  of  credit  losses  for  net  investments  in  direct 
financing and sales-type leases, loans to equity accounted joint ventures, guarantees of secured loan facilities of equity-accounted joint ventures, 
non-operating  lease  accounts  receivable,  contract  assets  and  other  receivables  at  the  time  the  financial  asset  is  originated  or  acquired.  The 
expected credit losses are subsequently adjusted each period for changes in expected lifetime credit losses. The Company discontinues accrual of 
interest on financial assets if collection of required payments is no longer probable, and in those situations, recognizes payments received on non-
accrual assets on a cash basis method, until collection of required payments becomes probable. The Company considers a financial asset to be 
past due when payment is not made with 30 days of it being owed, assuming there is no dispute or other uncertainty regarding the amount owing.

Expected credit loss provisions are presented on the consolidated balance sheets as a reduction to the carrying value of the related financial asset 
and as an other long-term liability for expected credit loss provisions that relate to guarantees of secured loan facilities of equity-accounted joint 
ventures. Changes in expected credit loss provisions are presented within other loss within the consolidated statements of income (loss). 

Prior  to  the  adoption  of Accounting  Standards  Update ASU  2016-13,  Financial  Instruments  -  Credit  Losses:  Measurement  of  Credit  Losses  on 
Financial Instruments (or ASU 2016-13) on January 1, 2020, the Company:

recognized an allowance for doubtful accounts consisting of the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in existing
accounts  receivable.  The  Company  determined  the  allowance  based  on  historical  write-off  experience  and  customer  economic  data.  The
Company  reviewed  the  allowance  for  doubtful  accounts  regularly  and  past  due  balances  were  reviewed  for  collectability. Account  balances
were charged off against the allowance when the Company believed that the receivable would not be recovered. There were no significant
amounts recorded as allowance for doubtful accounts as at December 31, 2020 and 2019.

analyzed its loans for collectability during each reporting period. A loan loss provision was recognized when, based on current information and
events,  it  was  probable  that  the  Company  would  be  unable  to  collect  all  amounts  due  according  to  the  contractual  terms  of  the  loan
agreement.  Factors  the  Company  considered  in  determining  if  a  loan  loss  provision  was  required  included,  among  other  things,  an
assessment of the financial condition of the debtor, payment history of the debtor, general economic conditions, the credit rating of the debtor
(when available) any information provided by the debtor regarding its ability to repay the loan and the fair value of the underlying collateral.
When a loan loss provision was recognized, the Company measured the amount of the loss provision based on the present value of expected
future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate and recognized the resulting loss in the consolidated statements of income
(loss). The carrying value of the loan was adjusted each subsequent reporting period to reflect any changes in the present value of expected
future cash flows.

For  charter  contracts  being  accounted  for  as  operating  leases,  if  the  remaining  lease  payments  are  no  longer  probable  of  being  collected,  any 
unpaid  accounts  receivable  and  any  accrued  revenue  will  be  reversed  against  revenue  and  any  subsequent  payments  will  be  recognized  as 
revenue when collected until such time that the remaining lease payments are probable of being collected. 

Derivative instruments

All  derivative  instruments  are  initially  recorded  at  fair  value  as  either  assets  or  liabilities  in  the  accompanying  consolidated  balance  sheets  and 
subsequently remeasured to fair value each period end, regardless of the purpose or intent for holding the derivative. The method of recognizing 
the resulting gain or loss is dependent on whether the derivative contract is designed to hedge a specific risk and whether the contract qualifies for 
hedge  accounting.  The  Company  does  not  apply  hedge  accounting  to  its  derivative  instruments,  except  for  certain  types  of  interest  rate  swaps 
designated as cash flow hedges (See Note 15).

When a derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, the Company formally documents the relationship between the derivative and the hedged 
item.  This  documentation  includes  the  strategy  and  risk  management  objective  for  undertaking  the  hedge  and  the  method  that  will  be  used  to 
assess the effectiveness of the hedge. Any gains and losses on the derivative that are excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness are 
recognized  immediately  in  earnings. The  Company  does  not  apply  hedge  accounting  if  it  is  determined  that  the  hedge  is  not  effective  or  will  no 
longer be effective, the derivative is sold or exercised, or the hedged item is sold, repaid or no longer probable of occurring.

For derivative financial instruments designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges, changes in the fair value of the derivative financial instruments 
are  initially  recorded  as  a  component  of  accumulated  other  comprehensive  loss  in  total  equity.  In  the  periods  when  the  hedged  items  affect 
earnings, the associated fair value changes on the hedging derivatives are transferred from total equity to the corresponding earnings line item (e.g. 
interest expense) in the Company's consolidated statements of income (loss). If a cash flow hedge is terminated or de-designated and the originally 
hedged  item  is  still  considered  probable  of  occurring,  the  gains  and  losses  initially  recognized  in  total  equity  remain  there  until  the  hedged  item 
impacts earnings, at which point they are transferred to the corresponding earnings line item in the Company's consolidated statements of income 
(loss). If the hedged items are no longer probable of occurring, amounts recognized in total equity are immediately transferred to the corresponding 
earnings line item in the Company's consolidated statements of income (loss).

For derivative financial instruments that are not designated or that do not qualify as hedges under Financial Accounting Standards Board (or FASB) 
Accounting  Standards  Codification  (or  ASC)  815,  Derivatives  and  Hedging,  changes  in  the  fair  value  of  the  derivative  financial  instruments  are 
recognized in earnings. Gains and losses from the Company’s non-designated interest rate swaps related to long-term debt, non-designated bunker 
fuel swap contracts and forward freight agreements, and non-designated foreign currency forward contracts are recorded in realized and unrealized 
loss on non-designated derivative instruments in the Company's consolidated statements of income (loss). Gains and losses from the Company’s 
non-designated cross currency swaps are recorded in foreign exchange (loss) gain in the Company's consolidated statements of income (loss).

Goodwill and intangible assets

Goodwill  is  not  amortized  but  is  reviewed  for  impairment  at  the  reporting  unit  level  on  an  annual  basis  or  more  frequently  if  an  event  occurs  or 
circumstances  change  that  would  more  likely  than  not  reduce  the  fair  value  of  a  reporting  unit  below  its  carrying  value.  A  reporting  unit  is  a 
component of the Company that constitutes a business for which discrete financial information is available and regularly reviewed by management. 
When goodwill is reviewed for impairment, the Company will measure the amount by which a reporting unit's carrying value exceeds its fair value, 
with the maximum impairment not to exceed the carrying value of goodwill. Alternatively, the Company may bypass this step and use a fair value 
approach to identify potential goodwill impairment and, when necessary, measure the amount of impairment. 

The Company uses a discounted cash flow model to determine the fair value of reporting units unless there is a readily determinable fair market 
value. Goodwill impairment is measured as the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying 
value of goodwill.

Customer-related  intangible  assets  are  amortized  over  the  expected  life  of  a  customer  contract  or  the  expected  duration  that  the  customer 
relationships are estimated to contribute to the cash flows of the Company. The amount amortized each year is weighted based on the projected 
revenue  to  be  earned  under  the  contracts  or  projected  revenue  to  be  earned  as  a  result  of  the  customer  relationships.  Intangible  assets  are 
assessed for impairment when and if impairment indicators exist. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an intangible asset is 
not recoverable and its carrying amount exceeds its fair value.

Lease obligations and right-of-use assets

For  its  chartered-in  vessels  and  office  leases,  as  of  the  lease  commencement  date,  the  Company  recognizes  a  liability  for  its  lease  obligation, 
initially measured at the present value of lease payments not yet paid, and an asset for its right to use the underlying asset, initially measured equal 
to the lease liability and adjusted for lease payments made at or before lease commencement, lease incentives, and any initial direct costs. The 
discount rate used to determine the present value of the lease payments is the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow on a 
collateralized basis over a similar term for an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. The initial recognition of the 
lease obligation and right-of-use asset excludes short-term leases for the Company's chartered-in vessels and office leases. Short-term leases are 
leases with an original term of one year or less, excluding those leases with an option to extend the lease for greater than one year or an option to 
purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is deemed reasonably certain to exercise. The initial recognition of this lease obligation and right-of-
use  asset  excludes  variable  lease  payments  that  are  based  on  the  usage  or  performance  of  the  underlying  asset  and  the  portion  of  payments 
related to non-lease elements of vessel charters. 

For  those  leases  classified  as  operating  leases,  lease  interest  and  right-of-use  asset  amortization  in  aggregate  result  in  a  straight-line  expense 
profile that is presented in time charter hire expense for vessels and general and administrative expense for office leases, unless the right-of-use 
asset  becomes  impaired.  For  those  leases  classified  as  finance  leases,  the  Company  uses  the  effective  interest  rate  method  to  subsequently 
account for the lease liability, whereby interest is recognized in interest expense in the Company's consolidated statements of income (loss). For

those leases classified as finance leases, the right-of-use asset is amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining life of the vessel, with such 
amortization included in depreciation and amortization in the Company's consolidated statements of income (loss). Variable lease payments that 
are based on the usage or performance of the underlying asset are recognized as an expense when incurred, unless achievement of a specified 
target triggers the lease payment, in which case an expense is recognized in the period when achievement of the target is considered probable.

The Company recognizes the expense from short-term leases and any non-lease components of vessels time chartered from other owners, on a 
straight-line basis over the firm period of the charters. The expense is included in time charter hire expense for vessel charters and general and 
administrative expenses for office leases.

The right-of-use asset is assessed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. 
If the right-of-use asset’s net carrying value exceeds the net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated over its remaining useful life, the 
carrying amount of the right-of-use  asset is reduced to its estimated fair value. The estimated fair value for the Company's impaired  right-of-use 
assets from in-chartered vessels is determined using a discounted cash flow approach to estimate the fair value. Subsequent to an impairment, a 
right-of-use asset related to an operating lease is amortized on a straight-line basis over its remaining life.

The  Company  has  determined  that  all  of  its  time-charter-in  contracts  contain  both  a  lease  component  (lease  of  the  vessel)  and  a  non-lease 
component  (operation  of  the  vessel).  The  Company  has  allocated  the  contract  consideration  between  the  lease  component  and  non-lease 
component on a relative standalone selling price basis. The standalone selling price of the non-lease component has been determined using a cost-
plus approach, whereby the Company estimates the cost to operate the vessel using cost benchmarking studies prepared by a third party, when 
available, or internal estimates when not available, plus a profit margin. The standalone selling price of the lease component has been determined 
using an adjusted market approach, whereby the Company calculates a rate excluding the operating component based on a market time-charter 
rate  information  from  published  broker  estimates,  when  available,  or  internal  estimates  when  not  available.  Given  that  there  are  no  observable 
standalone selling prices for either of these two components, judgment is required in determining the standalone selling price of each component. 
The bareboat charter contracts contain only a lease component.

Vessels sold and leased back by the Company, where the Company has a fixed price repurchase obligation or other situations where the leaseback 
would be classified as a finance lease, are accounted for as a failed sale of the vessel. For such transactions, the Company does not derecognize 
the vessel sold and continues to depreciate the vessel as if it was the legal owner. Proceeds received from the sale of the vessel are recognized as 
an  obligation  related  to  finance  lease  and  bareboat  charter  hire  payments  made  by  the  Company  to  the  lessor  are  allocated  between  interest 
expense and principal repayments on the obligation related to finance lease. 

In periods prior to the adoption of Accounting Standards Update 2016-02, Leases (or ASU 2016-02) (see note 2), the Company's accounting policy 
was to recognize the expense from vessels time-chartered from other owners, which was included in time-charter hire expense, on a straight-line 
basis over the firm period of the charters.

Asset retirement obligation

The Company has asset retirement obligations (or AROs) relating to (a) the recycling of the Petrojarl Foinaven FPSO unit in accordance with EU 
ship recycling regulations on completion of its current contract, and (b) the subsea production facility associated with the Petrojarl Banff FPSO unit 
which operated in the North Sea. The obligation relating to the Petrojarl Banff FPSO unit generally involves the costs associated with the restoration 
of the environment surrounding the facility and removal and disposal of all production equipment. The AROs will be covered in part by contractual 
payments to be received from the FPSO contract counterparties. 

The Company records the fair value of an ARO as a liability in the period when the obligation arises. The fair value of the ARO is measured using 
expected  future  cash  outflows  discounted  at  the  Company’s  credit-adjusted  risk-free  interest  rate.  When  the  liability  is  recorded,  the  Company 
capitalizes the cost by increasing the carrying amount of the related equipment. Each period, the liability is increased for the change in its present 
value, and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the useful life of the related asset. Changes in the amount or timing of the estimated ARO are 
recorded as an adjustment to the related asset and liability. 

In the first quarter of 2020, CNR International (U.K.) Limited (or CNRI), provided formal notice to Teekay of its intention to cease production in June 
2020 and decommission the Banff field shortly thereafter. As such, the Company removed the Petrojarl Banff FPSO and Apollo Spirit FSO from the 
Banff  field  in  the  third  quarter  of  2020  and  expects  to  remove  the  subsea  equipment  by  June  2023. The ARO  for  the  FPSO  unit  was  increased 
during  2020  based  on  changes  to  cost  estimates. As  at  December  31,  2020,  the ARO  and  associated  receivable,  which  is  recorded  in  goodwill, 
intangibles,  and  other  non-current  assets,  were  $42.4  million  and  $9.3  million,  respectively  (2019  –  $30.9  million  and  $8.4  million,  respectively). 
(See Note 6). 

Repurchase of common stock

The Company accounts for repurchases of common stock by decreasing common stock by the par value of the stock repurchased. In addition, the 
excess of the repurchase price over the par value is allocated between additional paid in capital and retained earnings. The amount allocated to 
additional paid in capital is the pro-rata share of the capital paid in and the balance is allocated to retained earnings.

Share-based compensation

The Company grants stock options, restricted stock units, performance share units and restricted stock awards as incentive-based compensation to 
certain employees and directors. The Company measures the cost of such awards using the grant date fair value of the award and recognizes that 
cost,  net  of  estimated  forfeitures,  over  the  requisite  service  period,  which  generally  equals  the  vesting  period.  For  stock-based  compensation 
awards  subject  to  graded  vesting,  the  Company  calculates  the  value  for  the  award  as  if  it  was  one  single  award  with  one  expected  life  and 
amortizes the calculated expense for the entire award on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the award.

Compensation cost for awards with performance conditions is recognized when it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved. The 
compensation cost of the Company’s stock-based compensation awards is substantially reflected in general and administrative expense.

Income taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method. Under the liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for 
the anticipated future tax effects of temporary differences between the consolidated financial statement basis and the tax basis of the Company’s 
assets and liabilities using the applicable jurisdictional tax rates. A valuation allowance for deferred tax assets is recorded when it is determined that 
it is more likely than not that some or all of the benefit from the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

The Company recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only if it is more-likely-than-not that a tax position taken or expected to be taken 
in a tax return will be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based 
on  the  technical  merits  of  the  position.  The  tax  benefits  recognized  in  the  Company’s  consolidated  financial  statements  from  such  positions  are 
measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company recognizes 
interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense in the Company's consolidated statements of income (loss).

The  Company  believes  that  it  and  its  subsidiaries  are  not  subject  to  income  taxation  under  the  laws  of  the  Republic  of  The  Marshall  Islands  or 
Bermuda, and that distributions by its subsidiaries to the Company will not be subject to any income taxes under the laws of such countries. The 
Company qualifies for the Section 883 exemption under U.S. federal income tax purposes, with the exception of Teekay LNG.

The  Company  has  defined  contribution  pension  plans  covering  the  majority  of  its  employees.  Pension  costs  associated  with  the  Company’s 
required contributions under its defined contribution pension plans are based on a percentage of employees’ salaries and are charged to earnings 
in  the  year  incurred.  With  the  exception  of  certain  of  the  Company’s  employees  in Australia,  the  Company’s  employees  are  generally  eligible  to 
participate in defined contribution plans. These plans allow for the employees to contribute a certain percentage of their base salaries into the plans. 
The  Company  matches  all  or  a  portion  of  the  employees’  contributions,  depending  on  how  much  each  employee  contributes.  During  the  years 
ended December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, the amount of cost recognized for the Company’s defined contribution pension plans was $8.3 million, 
$8.1 million and $7.9 million, respectively.

The Company also has defined benefit pension plans (or the Benefit Plans) covering certain of its employees in Australia. The Company accrues 
the  costs  and  related  obligations  associated  with  its  defined  benefit  pension  plans  based  on  actuarial  computations  using  the  projected  benefits 
obligation method and management’s best estimates of expected plan investment performance, salary escalation, and other relevant factors. For 
the purpose of calculating the expected return on plan assets, those assets are valued at fair value. The overfunded or underfunded status of the 
defined benefit pension plans is recognized as assets or liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company recognizes as a component of 
other  comprehensive  loss,  the  gains  or  losses  that  arise  during  a  period  but  that  are  not  recognized  as  part  of  net  periodic  benefit  costs.  The 
Company's funded status was a deficit of $2.8 million at December 31, 2020 and a deficit of $1.7 million at December 31, 2019.

Loss per common share

The  computation  of  basic  loss  per  share  is  based  on  the  weighted  average  number  of  common  shares  outstanding  during  the  period.  The 
computation of diluted earnings per share assumes the exercise of all dilutive stock options and restricted stock awards using the treasury stock 
method. The computation of diluted loss per share does not assume such exercises.

Accounting pronouncements

The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2019. ASU 2016-02 established a right-of-use model that requires a lessee to record a right-of-
use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. For lessees, leases are classified as either 
finance  or  operating,  with  classification  affecting  the  pattern  of  expense  recognition  in  the  income  statement. ASU  2016-02  requires  lessors  to 
classify leases as a sales-type, direct financing or operating lease. A lease is a sales-type lease if any one of five criteria are met, each of which 
indicate  that  the  lease,  in  effect,  transfers  control  of  the  underlying  asset  to  the  lessee.  If  none  of  those  five  criteria  are  met,  but  two  additional 
criteria are both met, indicating that the lessor has transferred substantially all of the risks and benefits of the underlying asset to the lessee and a 
third party, the lease is a direct financing lease. All leases that are not sales-type leases or direct financing leases are operating leases. 

ASU  2016-02  was  adopted  using  a  transition  approach  whereby  a  cumulative  effect  adjustment  is  made  as  of  the  effective  date,  with  no 
retrospective effect. ASU 2016-02 provides an optional practical expedient to lessors not to separate lease and non-lease components of a contract 
if certain criteria are met. The Company has elected to use this new optional transitional approach. In addition, the Company early adopted ASU 
2019-01,  which  provides  an  exception  for  lessors  who  are  not  manufacturers  or  dealers  to  determine  the  fair  value  of  leased  property  using  the 
underlying asset's cost, instead of fair value. To determine the cumulative effect adjustment, the Company has not reassessed lease classification, 
initial direct costs for any existing leases, or whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases. The Company identified the following 
differences:

•

•

•

•

The adoption of ASU 2016-02 resulted in a change in the accounting method for the lease portion of the daily charter hire for the chartered-in
vessels by the Company and the Company's equity-accounted joint ventures accounted for as operating leases with firm periods of greater
than  one  year,  as  well  as  a  small  number  of  office  leases.  Under ASU  2016-02,  the  Company  and  the  Company's  equity-accounted  joint
ventures recognized an operating lease right-of-use asset and operating lease liability on the consolidated balance sheet for these charters
and office leases based on the present value of future minimum lease payments, whereas previously no right-of-use asset or lease liability was
recognized.  This  resulted  in  an  increase  in  the  Company's  and  its  equity-accounted  joint  ventures'  assets  and  liabilities.  The  pattern  of
expense  recognition  of  chartered-in  vessels  remains  substantially  unchanged  from  the  prior  policy,  unless  the  right-of-use  asset  becomes
impaired. On January 1, 2019, a right-of-use asset of $170.0 million and a lease liability of $170.0 million were recognized for these chartered-
in vessels. In addition, the existing carrying value of the Company's chartered-in vessels was reclassified from other non-current assets ($13.7
million) and from other long-term liabilities ($0.9 million) to a right-of-use asset as at January 1, 2019. The Company also recognized a right-of-
use  asset  and  liability  for  its  office  leases  as  at  January  1,  2019,  which  is  presented  in  other  non-current  assets  and  accrued  liabilities  and
other,  respectively.  On  December  31,  2019,  the  right-of-use  asset  and  lease  liability  relating  to  the  Company's  chartered-in  vessels  were
$148.6  million  and  $148.6  million,  respectively,  and  the  right-of-use  asset  and  lease  liability  relating  to  office  leases  were $13.7  million  and
$13.9 million, respectively, and $0.2 million was reflected as a foreign exchange loss for the year ended December 31, 2019.

The  adoption  of ASU  2016-02  resulted  in  the  recognition  of  revenue  from  the  reimbursement  of  scheduled  dry-dock  expenditures,  where  a
charter  contract  is  accounted  for  as  an  operating  lease,  occurring  upon  completion  of  the  scheduled  dry-dock,  instead  of  ratably  over  the
period between the previous scheduled dry-dock and the next scheduled dry-dock. This change decreased investment in and loans to equity-
accounted  investments  by  $0.1  million  and  decreased  total  equity  by  $0.1  million  as  at  December  31,  2019.  The  cumulative  decrease  to
opening equity as at January 1, 2019 was $0.1 million.

The adoption of ASU 2016-02 resulted in direct financing and sales-type lease payments received being presented as an operating cash inflow
instead of an investing cash inflow in the Company's consolidated statement of cash flows. Direct financing and sales-type lease payments
received during the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018 were $340.9 million, $17.1 million and $10.9 million, respectively.

The adoption of ASU 2016-02 resulted in sale and leaseback transactions where the seller lessee has a fixed price repurchase option or other
situations where the leaseback would be classified as a finance lease being accounted for as a failed sale of the vessel and a failed purchase
of  the  vessel  by  the  buyer  lessor.  Prior  to  the  adoption  of ASU  2016-02,  such  transactions  were  accounted  for  as  a  completed  sale  and  a
completed purchase. Consequently, for such transactions, the Company did not derecognize the vessel sold and continues to depreciate the
vessel as if it was the legal owner. Proceeds received from the sale of the vessel were recognized as a financial liability and bareboat charter
hire payments made by the Company to the lessor were allocated between interest expense and principal repayments on the financial liability.
The adoption of ASU 2016-02 resulted in the sale and leaseback of the Yamal Spirit, the Torben Spirit, the Cascade Spirit and the Aspen Spirit
during  2019  being  accounted  for  as  failed  sales,  and  unlike  the  22  vessels  sold  and  leased  back  in  similar  transactions  in  prior  years,  the
Company was not considered as holding a variable interest in the buyer lessor entity and thus, did not consolidate the buyer lessor entities
(see Note 10).

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (or 
ASU  2016-13). ASU  2016-13  introduced  a  new  credit  loss  methodology,  which  requires  earlier  recognition  of  potential  credit  losses,  while  also 
providing additional transparency about credit risk. This new credit loss methodology utilizes a lifetime “expected credit loss” measurement objective 
for the recognition of credit losses for loans, held-to-maturity debt securities and other receivables at the time the financial asset is originated or 
acquired.  The  expected  credit  losses  are  subsequently  adjusted  each  period  for  changes  in  expected  lifetime  credit  losses.  This  methodology 
replaced  multiple  existing  impairment  methods  under  previous  GAAP  for  these  types  of  assets,  which  generally  required  that  a  loss  be  incurred 
before it was recognized. 

The Company adopted this update on January 1, 2020 with a modified-retrospective approach, whereby a cumulative-effect adjustment was made 
to reduce partner's equity on January 1, 2020 without any retroactive application to prior periods. The Company's net investments in direct financing 
and sales-type leases, advances to equity-accounted joint ventures, guarantees of indebtedness of equity-accounted joint ventures and receivables 
related  to  non-operating  lease  revenue  arrangements  are  subject  to ASU  2016-13.  On  adoption,  the  Company  decreased  the  carrying  value  of 
investments in and loans, net to equity-accounted investments by $40.0 million, non-controlling interest by $37.4 million, net investments in direct 
financing  and  sales-type  leases  by  $15.1  million  and  increased  accumulated  deficit  by  $17.7  million,  goodwill,  intangibles  and  other  non-current 
assets by $1.4 million and other long-term liabilities by $1.4 million. The cumulative adjustment recorded on initial adoption of this update does not 
reflect an increase in credit risk exposure to the Company compared to previous periods presented.

In August  2017,  the  FASB  issued Accounting  Standards  Update  2017-12,  Derivatives  and  Hedging  –  Targeted  Improvements  to  Accounting  for 
Hedging  Activities  (or  ASU  2017-12).  ASU  2017-12  eliminates  the  requirement  to  separately  measure  and  report  hedge  ineffectiveness  and 
generally requires, for qualifying hedges, the entire change in the fair value of a hedging instrument to be recorded in other comprehensive (loss) 
income and reclassified to earnings in the same income statement line as the hedged item when the hedged item affects earnings. The guidance 
also  modifies  the  accounting  for  components  excluded  from  the  assessment  of  hedge  effectiveness,  eases  documentation  and  assessment 
requirements  and  modifies  certain  disclosure  requirements. ASU  2017-12  became  effective  for  the  Company  on  January  1,  2019.  This  change 
decreased  accumulated  other  comprehensive  loss  by  $1.6  million  as  at  January  1,  2019,  and  correspondingly  increased  opening  equity  as  at 
January 1, 2019 by $1.6 million.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12 - Income Taxes (Topic 740) Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (or ASU 2019-12), as 
part of its initiative to reduce complexity in the accounting standards. The amendments in ASU 2019-12 eliminate certain exceptions related to the 
approach  for  intraperiod  tax  allocation,  the  methodology  for  calculating  income  taxes  in  an  interim  period  and  the  recognition  of  deferred  tax 
liabilities  for  outside  basis  differences,  among  other  changes.  The  guidance  becomes  effective  for  annual  reporting  periods  beginning  after 
December  15,  2020  and  interim  periods  within  those  fiscal  years  with  early  adoption  permitted,  including  adoption  in  any  interim  period.  The 
Company is currently evaluating the effect of adopting this new guidance.

In  March  2020,  the  FASB  issued  ASU  2020-04  -  Reference  Rate  Reform  (Topic  848)  Facilitation  of  the  Effects  of  Reference  Rate  Reform  on 
Financial  Reporting.  This  update  provides  optional  guidance  for  a  limited  period  of  time  to  ease  potential  accounting  impacts  associated  with 
transitioning away from reference rates that are expected to be discontinued, such as the London Interbank Offered Rate (or LIBOR). This update 
applies only to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. 
This update is effective through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of adopting this new guidance.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06 - Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - 
Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). This update simplifies the accounting for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred 
stock by reducing the number of accounting models and the number of embedded conversion features that could be recognized separately from the 
primary contract. This update also enhances transparency and improves disclosures for convertible instruments and earnings per share guidance. 
The Company is expected to adopt this update effective January 1, 2021 using the modified retrospective method of transition. The adoption of ASU 
2020-06 is expected to impact the accounting for the Company’s Convertible Senior Notes due January 15, 2023 (the Convertible Notes) whereby 
the  existing  debt  and  equity  components  will  be  recombined  into  a  single  component  accounted  for  as  a  single  liability,  at  its  amortized  cost.  In 
addition, the adoption of ASU 2020-06 is expected to result in the Company having to change from the use of the treasury stock method to the if-
converted method to determine the dilutive impact of the Convertible Notes when calculating diluted earnings per share.

2. Revenues

The Company’s primary source of revenue is chartering its vessels and offshore units to its customers. The Company utilizes four primary forms of
contracts, consisting of time charter contracts, voyage charter contracts, bareboat charter contracts and contracts for FPSO units. The Company
also  generates  revenue  from  the  management  and  operation  of  vessels  owned  by  third  parties  and  by  equity-accounted  investments  as  well  as
providing corporate management services to such entities.

Time Charters

Pursuant  to  a  time  charter,  the  Company  charters  a  vessel  to  a  customer  for  a  period  of  time,  generally  one  year  or  more.  The  performance
obligations  within  a  time  charter  contract,  which  will  include  the  lease  of  the  vessel  to  the  charterer  as  well  as  the  operation  of  the  vessel,  are
satisfied  as  services  are  rendered  over  the  duration  of  such  contract,  as  measured  using  the  time  that  has  elapsed  from  commencement  of
performance. In addition, any expenses that are unique to a particular voyage, including any fuel expenses, port fees, cargo loading and unloading
expenses, canal tolls, agency fees and commissions, are the responsibility of the customer, as long as the vessel is not off-hire.

Hire is typically invoiced monthly in advance for time charter contracts, based on a fixed daily hire amount. However, certain sources of variability
exist. Those include penalties, such as those that relate to periods the vessels are off-hire and where minimum speed and performance metrics are
not met. In addition, certain time charters contracts contain provisions that allow the Company to be compensated for increases in the Company’s
costs during the term of the charter. Such provisions may be in the form of annual hire rate adjustments for changes in inflation indices or interest
rates or in the form of cost reimbursements for vessel operating expenditures or dry-docking expenditures. Finally, in a small number of charters,
the Company may earn profit share consideration, which occurs when actual spot tanker rates earned by the vessel exceed certain thresholds for a
period of time. The Company does not engage in any specific tactics to minimize vessel residual value risk.

Voyage Charters

Voyage charters are charters for a specific voyage that are usually priced on a current or "spot" market rate. The performance obligations within a
voyage charter contract, which will typically include the lease of the vessel to the charterer as well as the operation of the vessel, are satisfied as
services  are  rendered  over  the  duration  of  the  voyage,  as  measured  using  the  time  that  has  elapsed  from  commencement  of  performance.  In
addition,  any  expenses  that  are  unique  to  a  particular  voyage,  including  fuel  expenses,  port  fees,  cargo  loading  and  unloading  expenses,  canal
tolls,  agency  fees  and  commissions,  are  the  responsibility  of  the  vessel  owner.  The  Company’s  voyage  charters  will  normally  contain  a  lease;
however, judgment is necessary to determine whether this is the case based upon the decision-making rights the charterer has under the contract.
Consideration  for  such  contracts  is  fixed  or  variable,  depending  on  certain  conditions.  Delays  caused  by  the  charterer  result  in  additional
consideration. Payment for the voyage is not due until the voyage is completed. The duration of a single voyage will typically be less than three
months. As such, accrued revenue at the end of a period will be invoiced and paid in the subsequent period. The amount of accrued revenue at any
point in time will depend on the percent completed of each voyage in progress as well as the freight rate agreed for those specific voyages. The
Company does not engage in any specific tactics to minimize vessel residual value risk due to the short-term nature of the contracts.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(all tabular amounts stated in thousands of U.S. dollars, other than share data and unless otherwise indicated)

Bareboat Charters

Pursuant to a bareboat charter, the Company charters a vessel to a customer for a fixed period of time, generally one year or more, at rates that are 
generally fixed. However, the customer is responsible for operation and maintenance of the vessel with its own crew as well as any expenses that 
are  unique  to  a  particular  voyage,  including  any  fuel  expenses,  port  fees,  cargo  loading  and  unloading  expenses,  canal  tolls,  agency  fees  and 
commissions. If the vessel goes off-hire due to a mechanical issue or any other reason, the monthly hire received by the vessel owner is normally 
not impacted by such events. The performance obligations within a bareboat charter, which will include the lease of the vessel to the charterer, are 
satisfied  over  the  duration  of  such  contract,  as  measured  using  the  time  that  has  elapsed  from  commencement  of  the  lease.  Hire  is  typically 
invoiced monthly in advance for bareboat charters, based on a fixed daily hire amount.

FPSO Contracts

Pursuant  to  an  FPSO  contract,  the  Company  charters  an  FPSO  unit  to  a  customer  for  a  period  of  time,  generally  more  than  one  year.  The 
performance obligations within an FPSO contract, which include the lease of the FPSO unit to the charterer as well as the operation of the FPSO 
unit, are satisfied as services are rendered over the duration of such contract, as measured using the time that has elapsed from commencement of 
performance. Hire is typically invoiced monthly in arrears, based on a fixed daily hire amount. In certain FPSO contracts, the Company is entitled to 
a lump sum amount due upon commencement of the contract and may also be entitled to termination fees if the contract is canceled early. While 
the fixed daily hire amount may be the same over the term of the FPSO contract, in some FPSO contracts, the fixed daily hire amount may increase 
or decrease over the duration of the FPSO contract. As a result of the Company accounting for compensation from such charters on a straight-line 
basis  over  the  duration  of  the  charter,  FPSO  contracts  where  revenue  is  recognized  before  the  Company  is  entitled  to  such  amounts  under  the 
FPSO contracts will result in the Company recognizing a contract asset and FPSO contracts where revenue is recognized after the Company is 
entitled to such amounts under the FPSO contracts will result in the Company recognizing deferred revenue. 

Certain  sources  of  consideration  variability  exist  within  FPSO  contracts.  Those  include  penalties,  such  as  those  that  relate  to  periods  where 
production on the FPSO unit is interrupted. In addition, certain FPSO contracts may contain provisions that allow the Company to be compensated 
for increases in the Company’s costs to operate the unit during the term of the contract. Such provisions may be in the form of annual hire rate 
adjustments for changes in inflation indices or in the form of cost reimbursements for vessel operating expenditures incurred. Finally, the Company 
may earn additional compensation from monthly production tariffs, which are based on the volume of oil produced, the price of oil, as well as other 
monthly  or  annual  operational  performance  measures.  Variable  consideration  of  the  Company's  contracts  is  typically  recognized  as  incurred  as 
either such revenue is allocated and accounted for under lease accounting requirements or alternatively such consideration is allocated to distinct 
periods under a contract during which such variable consideration was incurred. Since June 2020, the Company no longer earns variable or tariff 
revenues from its FPSO contracts.

The Company does not engage in any specific tactics to minimize residual value risk. Given the uncertainty involved in oil field production estimates 
and the result impact on oil field life, FPSO contracts typically will include extension options or options to terminate early. 

Management Fees and Other

The Company also generates revenue from the management and operation of vessels owned by third parties and by equity-accounted investments 
as well as providing corporate management services to such entities. Such services may include the arrangement of third-party goods and services 
for the vessel’s owner. The performance obligations within these contracts will typically consist of crewing, technical management, insurance and 
potentially  commercial  management. The  performance  obligations  are  satisfied  concurrently  and  consecutively  rendered  over  the  duration  of  the 
management  contract,  as  measured  using  the  time  that  has  elapsed  from  commencement  of  performance.  Consideration  for  such  contracts  will 
generally consist of a fixed monthly management fee, plus the reimbursement of crewing costs for vessels being managed. Management fees are 
typically invoiced monthly.

Company to operate the vessel for the customer.

(2) Compensation  from  time  charter  contracts  based  on  spot  market  rates  in  excess  of  a  base  daily  hire  amount,  production  tariffs  based  on  the  volume  of  oil

produced, the price of oil, and other monthly or annual operational performance measures.

Operating Leases

As at December 31, 2020, the minimum scheduled future rentals to be received by the Company in each of the next five years for the lease and 
non-lease  elements  related  to  time  charters,  bareboat  charters  and  FPSO  contracts  that  were  accounted  for  as  operating  leases  were 
approximately $573.8 million (2021), $440.0 million (2022), $333.5 million (2023), $259.3 million (2024) and $196.3 million (2025).

Minimum scheduled future revenues should not be construed to reflect total charter hire revenues for any of the years. Minimum scheduled future 
revenues do not include revenue generated from new contracts entered into after December 31, 2020, revenue from unexercised option periods of 
contracts  that  existed  on  December  31,  2020,  revenue  from  vessels  in  the  Company’s  equity-accounted  investments,  or  variable  or  contingent 
revenues. In addition, minimum scheduled future operating lease revenues presented in this paragraph have been reduced by estimated off-hire 
time for any periodic maintenance and do not reflect the impact of revenue sharing arrangements whereby time-charter revenues are shared with 
other revenue sharing arrangement participants. The amounts may vary given unscheduled future events such as vessel maintenance.

The  net  carrying  amount  of  the  vessels  employed  on  time  charter  contracts,  bareboat  charter  contracts  and  FPSO  contracts  that  have  been 
accounted for as operating leases at December 31, 2020, was $3.2 billion (2019 – $3.1 billion, 2018 – $3.4 billion). At December 31, 2020, the cost 
and accumulated depreciation of such vessels were $4.2 billion (2019 – $3.9 billion, 2018 – $4.3 billion) and $1.0 billion (2019 – $0.8 billion, 2018 – 
$0.8 billion), respectively. 

Net Investment in Direct Financing Leases and Sales-Type Leases

On March 27, 2020, the Company entered into a bareboat charter with Britoil Limited (or BP), a subsidiary of BP p.l.c., for the Petrojarl Foinaven 
FPSO for a period up to December 2030. BP may cancel the charter on six-months' notice. Under the terms of this charter, Teekay received a cash 
payment of approximately $67 million in April 2020 and will receive a nominal per day rate over the life of the contract and a lump sum payment at 
the end of the contract period, which is expected to cover the costs of recycling the FPSO unit in accordance with EU ship recycling regulations. 
The charter was classified and accounted for as a sales-type lease. Consequently, the Company recognized a net investment in sales-type lease of 
$81.9  million  and  an  asset  retirement  obligation  of  $6.1  million,  derecognized  the  carrying  value  of  the  Petrojarl  Foinaven  FPSO  and  related 
customer contract, and recognized a gain of $44.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020, which is reflected in gain on commencement 
of sales-type leases on the Company's consolidated statements of income for the year ended December 31, 2020. As at December 31, 2020, the 
net investment in sales-type lease was $14.8 million, with the majority of the reduction relating to the cash payment of $67 million received in April 
2020.

Teekay LNG owns a 70% ownership interest in Teekay BLT Corporation (or the Teekay Tangguh Joint Venture), which is a party to operating leases 
whereby the Teekay Tangguh Joint Venture leases two LNG carriers (or the Tangguh LNG Carriers) to a third party, which in turn leases the vessels 
back  to  the  joint  venture.  The  time  charters  for  the  two  Tangguh  LNG  carriers  are  accounted  for  as  direct  financing  leases.  The  Tangguh  LNG 
Carriers commenced their time charters with their charterers in 2009. 

In addition, the 21-year charter contract for the Bahrain Spirit floating storage unit (or FSU) commenced in September 2018 and is accounted for as 
a direct finance lease.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(all tabular amounts stated in thousands of U.S. dollars, other than share data and unless otherwise indicated)

In 2013, Teekay LNG acquired two LNG carriers, the WilPride and WilForce, from Norway-based Awilco LNG ASA (or Awilco) and chartered them 
back to Awilco on five- and four-year fixed-rate bareboat charter contracts, respectively, with Awilco holding fixed-price purchase obligations at the 
end of the charter contracts. These charter contracts were subsequently extended to February 2020, with the ownership of both vessels transferring 
to Awilco at the end of this extension. In addition, in October 2019, Awilco obtained credit approval for a financing facility that would provide the 
funds  necessary  for Awilco  to  fulfill  its  purchase  obligation  of  the  two  LNG  carriers. As  a  result,  both  vessels  were  derecognized  and  sales-type 
lease  receivables  were  recognized  based  on  the  remaining  amounts  owing  to  Teekay  LNG,  including  the  purchase  obligations.  Teekay  LNG 
recognized a gain of $14.3 million upon derecognition of the vessels for the year ended December 31, 2019, which was included in write-down and 
loss  on  sale  of  vessels  in  the  Company's  consolidated  statements  of  loss  (see  Note  18).  In  January  2020, Awilco  purchased  both  carriers  from 
Teekay  LNG  and  paid  Teekay  LNG  the  associated  purchase  obligation,  deferred  hire  amounts  and  interest  on  deferred  hire  amounts,  totaling 
$260.4 million relating to these two vessels.

As at December 31, 2020, estimated minimum lease payments to be received by the Company related to its direct financing leases and sales-type 
leases in each of the next five succeeding fiscal years were approximately $64.6 million (2021), $64.6 million (2022), $64.4 million (2023), $64.7 
million (2024), $75.9 million (2025) and an aggregate of $446.3 million thereafter. The leases are scheduled to end between 2028 and 2039.

Contract Liabilities

The Company enters into certain customer contracts that result in situations where the customer will pay consideration upfront for performance to 
be provided in the following month or months. These receipts are contract liabilities and are presented as deferred revenue until performance is 
provided. As at December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there were contract liabilities of $30.7 million and $32.4 million, respectively. During 
the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company recognized $32.4 million and $26.4 million, respectively, of revenue 
that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the respective periods.

Segment Reporting

The Company allocates capital and assesses performance from the separate perspectives of its two publicly-traded subsidiaries Teekay LNG and
Teekay Tankers (together, the Daughter Entities), and Teekay and its remaining subsidiaries (or Teekay Parent), as well as from the perspective of
the Company's lines of business. The primary focus of the Company’s organizational structure, internal reporting and allocation of resources by the
chief  operating  decision  maker  is  on  the  Daughter  Entities  and  Teekay  Parent  (the  Legal  Entity  approach),  and  its  segments  are  presented
accordingly on this basis. The Company has three primary lines of business: (1) offshore production (FPSO units), (2) LNG and LPG carriers, and
(3) conventional tankers. The Company manages these businesses for the benefit of all stakeholders. The Company incorporates the primary lines
of business within its segments, as in certain cases there is more than one line of business in each Daughter Entity and the Company believes this
information allows a better understanding of the Company’s performance and prospects for future net cash flows.

Subsequent to September 25, 2017 and prior to May 8, 2019, Teekay owned a 13.8% interest in the common units of Altera and a 49% interest in 
the general partner of Altera, and accounted for its interest in Altera using the equity method and presented such interest as a separate segment. 
On May 8, 2019, Teekay sold to Brookfield Business Partners L.P. (or Brookfield) all of the Company's remaining interests in Altera, which included 
the Company’s 49% general partner interest, common units, warrants, and an outstanding $25 million loan from the Company to Altera (or the 2019 
Brookfield Transaction).

Equity Financing Transactions of the Daughter Entities

On May 11, 2020, Teekay Parent and Teekay LNG agreed to eliminate all of Teekay LNG’s incentive distribution rights in exchange for the issuance
to a subsidiary of Teekay Corporation of 10.75 million newly-issued Teekay LNG common units. Following the completion of this transaction on May
11,  2020, Teekay  Parent  owns  approximately  36  million  common  units  of Teekay  LNG  and  remains  the  sole  owner  of  its  general  partner,  which
together represents an economic interest of approximately 42% in Teekay LNG.

On November 25, 2019, Teekay Tankers effected a one-for-eight reverse stock split of Teekay Tankers' Class A and Class B common shares, which
reduced the number of issued and outstanding Class A and B common shares of Teekay Tankers as at  December 31, 2019 from approximately
232.0 million and 37.0 million to approximately 29.0 million and 4.6 million, respectively.

In December 2018, Teekay LNG announced that its Board of Directors had authorized a common unit repurchase program for the repurchase of up
to $100 million of Teekay LNG's common units. During the years ended December 31, 2020, December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, Teekay
LNG  repurchased  1.4  million,  1.9  million  and  0.3  million  of  its  common  units  for  a  total  cost  of  $15.3  million,  $25.2  million  and  $3.7  million,
respectively, under its common unit repurchase program.

5. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

In 2015, Teekay Tankers acquired a ship-to-ship transfer business (previously referred to as SPT and now known as Teekay Marine Solutions or
TMS) from a company jointly owned by Teekay Corporation and a Norway-based marine transportation company, I.M. Skaugen SE and recognized
goodwill and intangible assets relating to customer relationships at the time of acquisition.

On April  30,  2020,  Teekay  Tankers  completed  the  sale  of  the  non-US  portion  of  its  ship-to-ship  support  services  business,  as  well  as  its  LNG
terminal management business. Following the sale, Teekay Tankers' remaining ship-to-ship support operations were integrated into Teekay Tankers'
tanker business. As a result, effective April 30, 2020, Teekay Tankers has one reportable segment. Teekay Tankers’ goodwill and intangible assets
for  December  31,  2019  have  been  retroactively  adjusted  whereby  the  remaining  ship-to-ship  support  operations  amounts  have  been  reallocated
from  the  ship-to-ship  transfer  segment  to  the  tanker  segment.  The  proportionate  share  of  goodwill  of  $5.6  million  and  intangible  assets  of  $6.9
million attributable to the business which was sold was reclassified to assets held for sale as at December 31, 2019.

Goodwill

The carrying amount of goodwill for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, for the Company’s reportable segments are as follows:

In the first quarter of 2020, CNRI provided formal notice to Teekay of its intention to cease production in June 2020 and decommission the Banff 
field shortly thereafter. As such, the Company removed the Petrojarl Banff FPSO and Apollo Spirit FSO from the Banff field in the third quarter of 
2020 and expects to remove the subsea equipment by June 2023. The Company expects to recycle the FPSO unit, which is currently in lay-up, and 
the subsea equipment following removal from the field. The Company redelivered the FSO unit to its owner in the third quarter of 2020. During the 
first  half  of  2020,  the  asset  retirement  obligation  for  the  Petrojarl  Banff  FPSO  unit  was  increased  based  on  changes  to  cost  estimates  and  the 
carrying value of the unit was fully written down. As of December 31, 2020, the present value of the Petrojarl Banff FPSO unit's estimated asset 
retirement  obligations  relating  to  the  remediation  of  the  subsea  infrastructure  was  $42.4  million,  of  which  $12.0  million  is  recorded  in  accrued 
liabilities  and  $30.4  million  recorded  in  other  long-term  liabilities. The  Company  has  also  recorded  $9.3  million  in  other  non-current  assets  as  at 
December 31, 2020 for the expected recovery of a portion of these costs from the customer upon the completion of the remediation work.

In March 2020, Teekay Parent entered into a new bareboat charter contract with the existing charterer of the Petrojarl Foinaven FPSO unit, which 
can be extended up to December 2030. Under the terms of the new contract, Teekay received a cash payment of $67 million in April 2020 and will 
receive a nominal per day rate over the life of the contract and a lump sum payment at the end of the contract period, which is expected to cover 
the  costs  of  recycling  the  FPSO  unit  in  accordance  with  the  EU  ship  recycling  regulations. As  of  December  31,  2020,  the  carrying  value  of  the 
related lease asset was $14.6 million. As of December 31, 2020, the present value of the Petrojarl Foinaven FPSO unit's estimated asset retirement 
obligation relating to recycling costs was $7.4 million.

Short-Term Debt

In November 2018, Teekay Tankers Chartering Pte. Ltd. (or TTCL), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Teekay Tankers, entered into a working capital
revolving  loan  facility  (or  the Working  Capital  Loan),  which  initially  provided  available  aggregate  borrowings  of  up  to $40.0  million  for TTCL,  and
which  had  an  initial  maturity  date  in  May  2019,  subject  to  extension  as  described  below.  The  maximum  available  aggregate  borrowings  were
subsequently  increased  to  $80.0  million,  effective  December  2019.  The  amount  available  for  drawdown  is  limited  to  a  percentage  of  certain
receivables and accrued revenue, which is assessed weekly. The next maturity date of the Working Capital Loan is May 2021. The Working Capital
Loan  maturity  date  is  continually  extended  for  further  periods  of  six  months  thereafter  unless  and  until  the  lender  gives  notice  in  writing  that  no
further extensions shall occur. Proceeds of the Working Capital Loan are used to provide working capital in relation to certain vessels subject to the
RSAs. Interest payments are based on LIBOR plus a margin of 3.5%.

The Working Capital Loan is collateralized by the assets of TTCL. The Working Capital Loan requires Teekay Tankers to maintain its paid-in capital 
contribution under the RSAs and the retained distributions of the RSA counterparties in an amount equal to the greater of (a) an amount equal to 
the  minimum  average  capital  contributed  by  the  RSA  counterparties  per  vessel  in  respect  of  the  RSA  (including  cash,  bunkers  or  other  working 
capital contributions and amounts accrued to the RSA counterparties but unpaid) and (b) a minimum capital contribution ranging from $20.0 million 
to $30.0 million based on the amount borrowed. As at December 31, 2020, $10.0 million (December 31, 2019 – $50.0 million) was owing under this 
facility, the aggregate available borrowings were $32.0 million (December 31, 2019 - $80.0 million) and the interest rate on the facility was 3.6% 
(December 31, 2019 – 5.0%). As at December 31, 2020, Teekay Tankers was in compliance with all covenants in respect of this facility.

As of December 31, 2020, the Company had four revolving credit facilities (collectively, the Revolvers) available. The Revolvers, as at such date, 
provided  for  aggregate  borrowings  of  up  to  $921.7  million,  of  which  $636.7  million  was  undrawn.  Interest  payments  are  based  on  LIBOR  plus 
margins. The margins ranged between 1.40% and 4.25% as at December 31, 2020 and between 1.40% and 3.95% as at December 31, 2019. The 
aggregate amount available under the Revolvers is scheduled to decrease by $115.8 million (2021), $539.4 million (2022), $65.3 million (2023) and 
$201.3  million  (2024).  The  Revolvers  are  collateralized  by  first-priority  mortgages  granted  on  33  of  the  Company’s  vessels,  together  with  other 
related security, and include a guarantee from Teekay or its subsidiaries for all but one of the Revolvers' outstanding amounts. Included in other 
related security are 36.0 million common units in Teekay LNG and 5.0 million Class A common shares in Teekay Tankers to secure a $150 million 
credit facility. 

The  Company’s  8.5%  senior  unsecured  notes  were  due  January  15,  2020  with  an  original  aggregate  principal  amount  of  $450  million  (or  the 
Original Notes). In November 2015, the Company issued an aggregate principal amount of $200 million of the Company’s 8.5% senior unsecured 
notes  due  on  January  15,  2020  (or  the  Additional  Notes)  at  99.0%  of  face  value,  plus  accrued  interest  from  July  15,  2015.  Prior  to  2020,  the 
Company repurchased $613.3 million in aggregate principal amount and in January 2020, the Company repaid all remaining Original Notes and 
Additional Notes at maturity. 

In  May  2019,  the  Company  issued  $250.0  million  in  aggregate  principal  amount  of  9.25%  senior  secured  notes  at  par  due  November  2022  (or 
the  2022  Notes). The  2022  Notes  are  guaranteed  on  a  senior  secured  basis  by  certain  of  the  Company's  subsidiaries  and  are  secured  by  first-
priority  liens  on  two  of  Teekay's  FPSO  units,  a  pledge  of  the  equity  interests  in  Teekay's  subsidiary  that  owns  all  of  Teekay's  common  units  of 
Teekay  LNG  Partners  L.P.  and  all  of  Teekay’s  Class A  common  shares  of  Teekay  Tankers  Ltd.  and  a  pledge  of  the  equity  interests  in  Teekay's 
subsidiaries that own Teekay Parent's three FPSO units.

The  Company  may  redeem  the  2022  Notes  in  whole  or  in  part  at  a  redemption  price  equal  to  a  percentage  of  the  principal  amount  of  the  2022 
Notes  to  be  redeemed  plus  accrued  and  unpaid  interest  to,  but  excluding,  the  redemption  date,  as  follows:  104.625%  at  any  time  on  or  after 
November  15,  2020,  but  prior  to  November  15,  2021;  102.313%  at  any  time  on  or  after  November  15,  2021,  but  prior  to  August  15,  2022; 
and 100% at any time on or after August 15, 2022.

On January 26, 2018, Teekay Parent completed a private offering of $125.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5% Convertible Senior Notes 
due  January  15,  2023  (the  Convertible  Notes).  The  Convertible  Notes  are  convertible  into  Teekay’s  common  stock,  initially  at  a  rate  of  85.4701 
shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes. This represents an initial effective conversion price of $11.70 per share 
of common stock. The initial conversion price represents a premium of 20% to the concurrent common stock offering price of $9.75 per share. On 
issuance of the Convertible Notes, $104.6 million of the net proceeds was reflected in long-term debt, including unamortized discount, and is being 
accreted to $125.0 million over its five-year term through interest expense. The remaining amount of the net proceeds of $16.1 million was allocated 
to the conversion feature and reflected in additional paid-in capital. 

During 2020, Teekay Parent commenced repurchasing some of its Convertible Notes and 2022 Notes in the open market. Teekay Parent acquired 
$12.8 million of the principal of the Convertible Notes for total consideration of $10.5 million and $6.6 million of principal of the 2022 Notes for total 
consideration of $6.2 million, recognizing a gain of $1.5 million in 2020, included in other loss on the Company's audited consolidated statements of 
income (loss), in relation to the repurchases.

TEEKAY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(all tabular amounts stated in thousands of U.S. dollars, other than share data and unless otherwise indicated)

As at December 31, 2020, Teekay LNG has a total of Norwegian Krone (or NOK) 3.1 billion in senior unsecured bonds issued in the Norwegian 
bond  market  that  mature  through  2025. As  at  December  31,  2020,  the  total  carrying  amount  of  the  bonds,  which  are  listed  on  the  Oslo  Stock 
Exchange  was  $355.5  million  (December  31,  2019  –  $347.2  million).  The  interest  payments  on  the  bonds  are  based  on  NIBOR  plus  a  margin, 
which ranges from 4.60% to 6.00% as at December 31, 2020 (December 31, 2019 - 3.70% to 6.00%). The Company entered into cross currency 
rate swaps to swap all interest and principal payments of the bonds into U.S. Dollars, with the interest payments fixed at rates ranging from 5.74% 
to 7.89% (December 31, 2019 - 5.92% to 7.89%) and the transfer of the principal amount fixed at $360.5 million upon maturity in exchange for NOK 
3.1 billion (see Note 15).

As  of  December  31,  2020,  the  Company  had  six  U.S.  Dollar-denominated  term  loans  outstanding,  which  totaled  $938.3  million  in  aggregate 
principal amount (December 31, 2019 – $1.3 billion). Interest payments on the term loans are based on LIBOR plus a margin, of which one of the 
term  loans  has  additional  tranches  with  a  weighted  average  fixed  rate  of  4.26%. At  December  31,  2020  and  December  31,  2019,  the  margins 
ranged between 0.30% and 3.25%. The term loans require payments in quarterly installments commencing three months after first drawdown and 
five  of  the  term  loans  have  balloon  or  bullet  repayments  due  at  maturity.  The  term  loans  are  collateralized  by  first-priority  mortgages  on  20 
(December 31, 2019 – 24) of the Company’s vessels, together with certain other security. In February 2021, one of the term loans, coming due over 
the  next  12  months,  was  refinanced  and  as  a  result,  $177.0  million  was  reclassified  from  current  portion  to  long-term  debt  in  the  Company's 
consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020 (see Note 23). 

Teekay  LNG  has  two  Euro-denominated  term  loans  outstanding,  which,  as  at  December  31,  2020,  totaled  125.0  million  Euros  ($152.7  million) 
(December 31, 2019 – 147.5 million Euros ($165.4 million)). Teekay LNG is servicing the loans with funds generated from two Euro-denominated, 
long-term time-charter contracts. Interest payments for one of the term loans are based on the Euro Interbank Offered Rate (or EURIBOR) plus a 
margin.  Interest  payments  on  the  remaining  term  loan  are  based  on  EURIBOR  where  EURIBOR  is  limited  to  zero  or  above  zero  values,  plus  a 
margin. At December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the margins ranged between 0.60% and 1.95%. The Euro-denominated term loans reduce 
in monthly and semi-annual payments with varying maturities through 2024, are collateralized by first-priority mortgages on two of Teekay LNG’s 
vessels, together with certain other security, and are guaranteed by Teekay LNG and one of its subsidiaries.

Both  Euro-denominated  term  loans  and  NOK-denominated  bonds  are  revalued  at  the  end  of  each  period  using  the  then-prevailing  U.S.  Dollar 
exchange  rate.  Due  primarily  to  the  revaluation  of  the  Company’s  NOK-denominated  bonds,  the  Company’s  Euro-denominated  term  loans  and 
restricted cash and the change in the valuation of the Company’s cross currency swaps, the Company recognized a foreign exchange loss during 
2020 of $20.7 million (2019 – loss of $13.6 million, 2018 – gain of $6.1 million).

The weighted-average interest rate on the Company’s aggregate long-term debt as at December 31, 2020 was 3.8% (December 31, 2019 – 4.6%). 
This rate does not include the effect of the Company’s interest rate swap agreements (see Note 15).

The aggregate annual long-term debt principal repayments required to be made by the Company subsequent to December 31, 2020, after giving 
effect to the February 2021 term loan refinancing described above, are $262.3 million (2021), $463.5 million (2022), $392.8 million (2023), $310.9 
million (2024), $187.8 million (2025) and $469.8 million (thereafter).

The  Company’s  long-term  debt  agreements  generally  provide  for  maintenance  of  minimum  consolidated  financial  covenants  and  five  loan 
agreements require the maintenance of vessel market value to loan ratios. As at December 31, 2020, these ratios were 405%, 273%, 142%, 215% 
and 190% compared to their minimum required ratios of 125%, 115%, 120%, 135% and 125%, respectively. The vessel values used in these ratios 
are the appraised values provided by third parties where available or prepared by the Company based on second-hand sale and purchase market 
data. Changes in the LNG/LPG carrier and conventional tanker markets could affect the Company's compliance with these ratios. 

Certain loan agreements require Teekay LNG to maintain a minimum level of tangible net worth, and minimum liquidity (cash, cash equivalents and 
undrawn  committed  revolving  credit  lines  with  at  least  six  months  to  maturity)  of  $35.0  million,  and  not  to  exceed  a  maximum  level  of  financial 
leverage. Certain loan agreements require Teekay Tankers to maintain minimum liquidity (cash, cash equivalents and undrawn committed revolving 
credit  lines  with  at  least  six  months  to  maturity)  of  the  greater  of  $35.0  million  and  at  least  5.0%  of Teekay Tankers'  total  consolidated  debt  and 
obligations related to finance leases.

As at December 31, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under its credit facilities and other long-term debt.

9. Operating Leases

The Company charters-in vessels from other vessel owners on time-charter-in and bareboat charter contracts, whereby the vessel owner provides
use of the vessel to the Company, and, in the case of time-charter-in contracts, also operates the vessel for the Company. A time-charter-in contract
is typically for a fixed period of time, although in certain cases the Company may have the option to extend the charter. The Company typically pays
the owner a daily hire rate that is fixed over the duration of the charter. The Company is generally not required to pay the daily hire rate for time
charters during periods the vessel is not able to operate.

On March 27, 2020, concurrently with the Petrojarl Foinaven FPSO transaction with BP described in Note 2, the Company sold its subsidiary Golar-
Nor (UK) Limited (or Golar-Nor) to Altera for a nominal amount plus outstanding working capital. Golar-Nor was in-chartering the Petroatlantic and
Petronordic shuttle tankers. This transaction resulted in the Company derecognizing right-of-use assets and lease liabilities totaling $50.7 million
and $50.7 million, respectively.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company incurred $73.8 million of time-charter and bareboat hire expenses related to time-charter-in
and bareboat charter contracts with an original term of more than one year, of which $48.5 million was allocable to the lease component and $25.3
million  was  allocable  to  the  non-lease  component.  The  amounts  allocable  to  the  lease  component  approximate  the  cash  paid  for  the  amounts
included  in  lease  liabilities  and  are  reflected  as  a  reduction  in  operating  cash  flows  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2020.  Three  of  Teekay
Tankers' time-charter-in contracts each have an option to extend the charter for an additional one-year term. Since it is not reasonably certain that
Teekay  Tankers  will  exercise  the  options,  the  lease  components  of  the  options  are  not  recognized  as  part  of  the  right-of-use  assets  and  lease

liabilities. As at December 31, 2020, the weighted-average remaining lease term and weighted-average discount rate for these time-charter-in and 
bareboat charter contracts were 2.4 years and 5.6%, respectively.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company incurred $6.3 million of time-charter hire expense related to time-charter-in contracts with an 
original term of one year or less.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, Teekay Tankers chartered-in one lightering support vessel for a period of 24 months, which resulted in 
the  Company  recognizing  right-of-use  assets  and  lease  liabilities  totaling  $0.8  million  and  $0.8  million,  respectively.  In  December  2020,  Teekay 
Tankers  entered  into  a  time  charter-in  contract  for  one Aframax  tanker  newbuilding  for  a  period  of  seven  years,  with  three  additional  one-year 
extension options, which is expected to be delivered to Teekay Tankers in the fourth quarter of 2022. The Company expects to recognize a right-of-
use asset and lease liability upon delivery of the vessel.

A maturity analysis of the Company’s operating lease liabilities from time-charter-in and bareboat charter contracts (excluding short-term leases) at 
December 31, 2020 is as follows:

As at December 31, 2020 and 2019, Teekay LNG was a party to finance leases on nine LNG carriers. These nine LNG carriers were sold by Teekay 
LNG to third parties (or Lessors) and leased them back under 7.5- to 15-year bareboat charter contracts ending in 2026 through to 2034. At the 
inception of these leases, the weighted-average interest rate implicit in these leases was 5.1%. The bareboat charter contracts are presented as 
obligations related to finance leases on the Company's consolidated balance sheets and have purchase obligations at the end of the lease terms.

Teekay  LNG  consolidates  seven  of  the  nine  Lessors  for  financial  reporting  purposes  as  VIEs.  Teekay  LNG  understands  that  these  vessels  and 
lease  operations  are  the  only  assets  and  operations  of  the  Lessors. Teekay  LNG  operates  the  vessels  during  the  lease  term  and  as  a  result,  is 
considered to be, under GAAP, the Lessors' primary beneficiary. The sale and leaseback of two of Teekay LNG's vessels are accounted for as failed 
sales. Teekay LNG is not considered as holding a variable interest in these buyer Lessor entities and thus, does not consolidate these entities (see 
Note 1).

The liabilities of the seven Lessors considered as VIEs are loans and are non-recourse to Teekay LNG. The amounts funded to the seven Lessors 
in order to purchase the vessels materially match the funding to be paid by Teekay LNG's subsidiaries under the sale-leaseback transactions. As a 

F - 29

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(all tabular amounts stated in thousands of U.S. dollars, other than share data and unless otherwise indicated)

result, the amounts due by Teekay LNG's subsidiaries to the seven Lessors considered as VIEs have been included in obligations related to finance 
leases as representing the Lessors' loans.

During September 2019, Teekay LNG refinanced the Torben Spirit by acquiring the Torben Spirit from its original Lessor and then selling the vessel 
to another Lessor and leasing it back for a period of 7.5 years. Teekay LNG is required to purchase the vessel at the end of the lease term. As a 
result of this refinancing transaction, Teekay LNG recognized a loss of $1.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 on the extinguishment of 
the original finance lease, which was included in other loss in the consolidated statements of income (loss).

The  obligations  of  Teekay  LNG  under  the  bareboat  charter  contracts  for  the  nine  LNG  carriers  are  guaranteed  by  Teekay  LNG.  In  addition,  the 
guarantee agreements require Teekay LNG to maintain minimum levels of tangible net worth and aggregate liquidity, and not to exceed a maximum 
amount of leverage. As at December 31, 2020, Teekay LNG was in compliance with all covenants in respect of the obligations related to its finance 
leases.

As at December 31, 2020, the remaining commitments related to the finance leases of these nine LNG carriers, including the amounts to be paid for 
the  related  purchase  obligations,  approximated  $1.7  billion,  including  imputed  interest  of  $400.5  million,  repayable  from  2021  through  2034,  as 
indicated below:

From  2017  to  2019, Teekay Tankers  completed  sale-leaseback  financing  transactions  with  financial  institutions  relating  to  16  of Teekay Tankers' 
vessels. Under these arrangements, Teekay Tankers transferred the vessels to subsidiaries of the financial institutions (collectively, the Lessors), 
and leased the vessels back from the Lessors on bareboat charters ranging from 9- to 12-year terms. Teekay Tankers is obligated to purchase eight 
of the vessels upon maturity of their respective bareboat charters. Teekay Tankers also has the option to purchase each of the 16 vessels at various 
times starting between July 2020 and November 2021 until the end of their respective lease terms. In October 2020, Teekay Tankers completed the 
purchases of two of these vessels for a total cost of $29.6 million.

As at December 31, 2020, Teekay Tankers consolidates 12 of the remaining 14 Lessors for financial reporting purposes as VIEs. Teekay Tankers 
understands  that  these  vessels  and  lease  operations  are  the  only  assets  and  operations  of  the  Lessors.  Teekay  Tankers  operates  the  vessels 
during the lease terms, and as a result, is considered to be the Lessor's primary beneficiary.

The liabilities of the 12 Lessors are loans that are non-recourse to Teekay Tankers. The amounts funded to the 12 Lessors in order to purchase the 
vessels materially match the funding to be paid by Teekay Tankers' subsidiaries under these lease-back transactions. As a result, the amounts due 
by Teekay Tankers' subsidiaries to the 12 Lessors considered as VIEs have been included in obligations related to finance leases as representing 
the Lessors' loans.

Subsequent to the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2019, sale and leaseback transactions where the lessee has a purchase obligation are 
treated as a failed sale. Consequently, the sale-leaseback of the Aspen Spirit and Cascade Spirit during the second quarter of 2019 is accounted for 
as a failed sale and Teekay Tankers has not derecognized the assets and continues to depreciate the assets as if it was the legal owner. Proceeds 
received  from  the  sale  are  set  up  as  an  obligation  related  to  finance  lease  and  bareboat  charter  hire  payments  made  by Teekay Tankers  to  the 
Lessor are allocated between interest expense and principal repayments on the obligation related to finance lease.

The  bareboat  charters  related  to  each  of  these  vessels  require  that  Teekay  Tankers  maintain  minimum  liquidity  (cash,  cash  equivalents  and 
undrawn committed revolving credit lines with at least six months to maturity) of the greater of $35.0 million and at least 5.0% of Teekay Tankers' 
consolidated debt and obligations related to finance leases.

Six  bareboat  charters  were  entered  into  by Teekay Tankers  with  subsidiaries  of  a  financial  institution  in  July  2017  and  November  2018.  Four  of 
these bareboat charters, entered into in July 2017, require Teekay Tankers to maintain, for each vessel, a hull coverage ratio of 90% of the total 
outstanding principal balance during the first three years of the lease period and 100% of the total outstanding principal balance thereafter. As at 
December  31,  2020,  these  ratios  ranged  from  121%  to  143%  (December  31,  2019  –  ranged  from  110%  to  132%).  The  remaining  two  of  these 
bareboat charters, entered into in November 2018, require the Company to maintain, for each vessel, a minimum hull coverage ratio of 100% of the 
total outstanding principal balance. As at December 31, 2020, these ratios ranged from 145% to 156% (2019 - ranged from 140% to 144%). Should 
any of these ratios drop below the required amount, the Lessor may request that the Company prepay additional charter hire.

Eight  bareboat  charters  were  entered  into  with  subsidiaries  of  a  financial  institution  in  September  2018  and  May  2019.  Six  of  these  bareboat 
charters, entered into in September 2018, require Teekay Tankers to maintain, for each vessel, a hull coverage ratio of 75% of the total outstanding 
principal balance during the first year of the lease period, 78% for the second year, 80% for the following two years and 90% of the total outstanding 
principal balance thereafter. As at December 31, 2020, these ratios ranged from 80% to 88% (December 31, 2019 – ranged from 106% to 123%).

TEEKAY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(all tabular amounts stated in thousands of U.S. dollars, other than share data and unless otherwise indicated)

The  remaining  two  of  these  bareboat  charters,  entered  into  in  May  2019,  require  Teekay  Tankers  to  maintain,  for  each  vessel,  a  minimum  hull 
coverage  ratio  of  75%  of  the  total  outstanding  principal  balance  during  the  first  year  of  the  lease  period,  78%  for  the  second  year,  80%  for  the 
following  two  years  and  90%  of  the  total  outstanding  principal  balance  thereafter. As  at  December  31,  2020,  this  ratio  was  approximately  81% 
(December 31, 2019 – 109%). Should any of these ratios drop below the required amount, and Teekay Tankers is unable to cure any such breach 
within the prescribed cure period, Teekay Tankers' obligations may become immediately due and payable at the election of the relevant lessor. In 
certain circumstances, this could lead to cross-defaults under our other financing agreements, which in turn could result in obligations becoming 
due and commitments being terminated under such agreements. In November 2020, Teekay Tankers declared purchase options to acquire two of 
these vessels for a total cost of $56.7 million with an expected completion date of May 2021 and, in March 2021, Teekay Tankers declared purchase 
options to acquire the remaining six vessels for a total cost of $128.8 million with an expected completion date of September 2021 (see Note 23).

Such requirements are assessed annually with reference to vessel valuations compiled by one or more agreed upon third parties. As at December 
31, 2020, Teekay Tankers was in compliance with all covenants in respect of the obligations related to finance leases.

The weighted average interest rate on Teekay Tankers’ obligations related to finance leases as at December 31, 2020 was 7.8% (December 31, 
2019 – 7.6%). 

As  at  December  31,  2020, Teekay Tankers'  total  remaining  commitments  (including  vessel  purchase  options  declared  as  of  that  date)  related  to 
financial liabilities of these vessels were approximately $480.9 million (December 31, 2019 – $601.7 million), including imputed interest of $120.9 
million (December 31, 2019 – $186.9 million), repayable from 2021 through 2030, as indicated below:

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments and other non-financial assets.

Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash – The fair value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash approximates 
their carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. 

Vessels and equipment and assets held for sale – The estimated fair value of the Company’s vessels and equipment and assets held for sale 
was determined based on discounted cash flows, appraised values and contractual sales prices. In cases where an active second-hand sale and 
purchase  market  does  not  exist,  the  Company  uses  a  discounted  cash  flow  approach  to  estimate  the  fair  value  of  an  impaired  vessel.  In  cases 
where an active second-hand sale and purchase market exists, an appraised value is generally the amount the Company would expect to receive if 
it were to sell the vessel. Such appraisal is normally completed by the Company. Other assets held for sale include working capital balances and 
the fair value of such amounts generally approximate their carrying value. 

Long-term debt – The fair value of the Company’s fixed-rate and variable-rate long-term debt is either based on quoted market prices or estimated 
by the Company using discounted cash flow analyses, based on rates currently available for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities and 
the current credit worthiness of the Company. Alternatively, if the fixed-rate and variable-rate long-term debt is held for sale the fair value is based 
on the estimated sales price.

Long-term obligation related to finance leases – The fair value of the Company's long-term obligation related to finance leases is estimated by 
the Company using discounted cash flow analyses, based on rates currently available for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities and the 
current credit worthiness of the Company.

Derivative instruments – The fair value of the Company’s derivative instruments is the estimated amount that the Company would receive or pay 
to  terminate  the  agreements  at  the  reporting  date,  taking  into  account,  as  applicable,  fixed  interest  rates  on  interest  rate  swaps,  current  interest 
rates, foreign exchange rates, and the current credit worthiness of both the Company and the derivative counterparties. The estimated amount is 
the present value of future cash flows. The Company transacts all of its derivative instruments through investment-grade rated financial institutions 
at  the  time  of  the  transaction  and  requires  no  collateral  from  these  institutions.  Given  the  current  volatility  in  the  credit  markets,  it  is  reasonably 
possible that the amounts recorded as derivative assets and liabilities could vary by material amounts in the near term.

The  Company  categorizes  its  fair  value  estimates  using  a  fair  value  hierarchy  based  on  the  inputs  used  to  measure  fair  value.  The  fair  value 
hierarchy has three levels based on the reliability of the inputs used to determine fair value as follows:

Level 1.
Level 2.
Level 3.

Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

The fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap and cross currency swap agreements at December 31, 2020 includes $6.1 million (December 31, 2019 – $3.4
million) accrued interest expense which is recorded in accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

In  the  consolidated  financial  statements,  the  Company’s  loans  to  and  investments  in  equity-accounted  investments  form  the  aggregate  carrying  value  of  the
Company’s interests in entities accounted for by the equity method. The fair value of the individual components of such aggregate interests is not determinable.

In December 2020, the carrying values of four Aframax tankers were written down to their estimated fair values, using appraised values. See Note 18.

In December 2020, the carrying value of four LNG multi-gas carriers were written down to their estimated fair values. See Note 18.

b) Credit Losses

The Company's exposure to potential credit losses within the scope of ASC 2016-13 includes Teekay Parent's one sales-type lease (the Foinaven 
FPSO – see Note 2) and Teekay LNG's three direct financing leases, three of its loans to equity-accounted joint ventures and its guarantees of its 
proportionate share of secured loan facilities.

In addition, Teekay LNG's exposure to potential credit losses within its equity-accounted joint ventures under ASC 2016-13 primarily includes direct 
financing and sales-types leases for 18 LNG carriers within its 50/50 joint venture with China LNG Shipping (Holdings) Limited (or China LNG) (or 
the Yamal LNG Joint Venture); its joint venture with China LNG, CETS Investment Management (HK) Co. Ltd. and BW Investments Pte. Ltd (or the 
Pan  Union  Joint  Venture);  its  40%  ownership  interest  in  Teekay  Nakilat  (III)  Corporation  (or  the  RasGas  III  Joint  Venture);  its  33%  ownership 
interest in a joint venture with NYK Energy Transport (or NYK) and Mitsui & Co. Ltd. (or the Angola Joint Venture); and one floating storage unit (or 
FSU) and an LNG regasification terminal joint venture within Bahrain LNG W.L.L (or the Bahrain LNG Joint Venture). See Note 22. 

The  following  table  includes  the  amortized  cost  basis  of  the  Company's  direct  interests  in  financing  receivables  and  net  investment  in  direct 
financing leases by class of financing receivables and by period of origination and their associated credit quality.

(1) The Company's credit quality grades are based on internal risk credit ratings whereby a credit quality grade of performing is consistent with a
low  likelihood  of  loss. The  Company  assesses  the  credit  quality  of  its  direct  financing  leases  and  loan  to  the  Exmar  LPG  Joint  Venture  on
whether there are no past due payments (30 days late), no concessions granted to the counterparties and whether the Company is aware of
any  other  information  that  would  indicate  that  there  is  a  material  increase  of  likelihood  of  loss.  The  same  policy  is  applied  by  the  equity-
accounted joint ventures. The Company assesses the credit quality of its loan to the Bahrain LNG Joint Venture based on whether there are
any  past  due  payments  from  the  Bahrain  LNG  Joint  Venture’s  primary  customer,  whether  the  Bahrain  LNG  Joint  Venture  has  granted  any
concessions to its primary customer and whether the Company is aware of any other information that would indicate that there is a material
increase  of  likelihood  of  loss. As  at  December  31,  2020,  all  direct  financing  and  sales-type  leases  held  by Teekay  LNG  and Teekay  LNG's
equity-accounted joint ventures had a credit quality grade of performing.

(1) The credit loss provision related to the lease receivable component of the net investment in direct financing and sales-type leases is based on
an internal historical loss rate, as adjusted when asset-specific risk characteristics of the existing lease receivables at the reporting date are
not  consistent  with  those  used  to  measure  the  internal  historical  loss  rate  and  as  further  adjusted  when  management  expects  current
conditions  and  reasonable  and  supportable  forecasts  to  differ  from  the  conditions  that  existed  to  measure  the  internal  historical  loss  rate.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, two of Teekay LNG's LNG project counterparties maintained investment-grade credit ratings. As
such, the internal historical loss rate used to determine the credit loss provision at both January 1, 2020 and December 31, 2020 was adjusted
downwards to reflect a lower risk profile for these two LNG projects at such dates compared to the average LNG project used to determine the
internal historical loss rate. In addition, the internal historical loss rate was adjusted upwards for (a) one LNG project to reflect a lower credit
rating  for  the  counterparty,  including  consideration  of  the  critical  infrastructure  nature  of  LNG  production,  and  (b)  a  second  LNG  project  to
reflect  a  larger  potential  risk  of  loss  upon  potential  default  as  the  vessels  servicing  this  project  have  fewer  opportunities  for  redeployment
compared  to  Teekay  LNG's  other  LNG  carriers.  The  credit  loss  provision  for  the  residual  value  component  is  based  on  a  reversion
methodology  whereby  the  current  estimated  fair  value  of  the  vessel  as  depreciated  to  the  end  of  the  charter  contract  as  compared  to  the
expected carrying value, with such potential gain or loss on maturity being included in the credit loss provision in increasing magnitude on a
straight-line basis the closer the contract is to its maturity. Risks related to the net investments in direct financing and sales-type leases consist
of risks related to the underlying LNG projects and demand for LNG carriers at the end of the time-charter contracts.

(all tabular amounts stated in thousands of U.S. dollars, other than share data and unless otherwise indicated)

The  changes  in  credit  loss  provision  of  $16.0  million  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2020  was  included  in  other  expense  and  primarily 
reflects  a  decline  in  the  estimated  charter-free  valuations  for  certain  types  of Teekay  LNG's  LNG  carriers  at  the  end  of  their  servicing  time-
charter contract which are accounted for as direct financing and sales-type leases. These estimated future charter-free values are subject to 
change from period to period based on the underlying LNG shipping market fundamentals. The changes in the credit loss provision for Teekay 
LNG's consolidated vessels for the year ended December 31, 2020 does not reflect any material changes in expectations of the charterers' 
ability to make their time-charter hire payments as they come due compared to the beginning of the year.

The  changes  in  credit  loss  provision  of  $18.6  million  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2020,  relating  to  the  direct  financing  and  sales-type 
leases  and  other  within  Teekay  LNG's  equity-accounted  joint  ventures  are  included  in  equity  income  and  reflect  a  decline  in  the  estimated 
charter-free valuations for certain types of LNG carriers at the end of their time-charter contract which are accounted for as direct financing and 
sales-type leases for the year ended December 31, 2020, combined with the initial credit loss provision recognition upon commencement of 
the sales-type lease for the LNG regasification terminal and associated FSU in the Bahrain LNG Joint Venture in January 2020.

(2) The  determination  of  the  credit  loss  provision  for  such  loans  is  based  on  their  expected  duration  and  on  an  internal  historical  loss  rate  of
Teekay LNG and its affiliates, as adjusted when asset-specific risk characteristics of the existing loans at the reporting date are not consistent
with  those  used  to  measure  the  internal  historical  loss  rate  and  as  further  adjusted  when  management  expects  current  conditions  and
reasonable and supportable forecasts to differ from the conditions that existed to measure the internal historical loss rate. These  two loans
rank behind secured debt in each equity-accounted joint venture. As such, they are similar to equity in terms of risk. Teekay LNG's 50/50 LPG
related joint venture with Exmar NV (or Exmar) (or Exmar LPG Joint Venture) owns and charters-in LPG carriers with a primary focus on mid-
size gas carriers. Their vessels trade on the spot market or short-term charters. Adverse changes in the spot market for mid-size LPG carriers,
as  well  as  operating  costs  for  such  vessels,  may  impact  the  ability  of  the  Exmar  LPG  Joint  Venture  to  repay  its  loan  to  Teekay  LNG.  The
Bahrain LNG Joint Venture owns an LNG receiving and regasification terminal in Bahrain. The ability of Bahrain LNG Joint Venture to repay its
loan to Teekay LNG is primarily dependent upon the Bahrain LNG Joint Venture’s customer, a company owned by the Kingdom of Bahrain,
fulfilling its obligations under the 20-year agreement, as well as the Bahrain LNG Joint Venture’s ability to operate the terminal in accordance
with the agreed upon operating criteria.

(3) The determination of the credit loss provision for such guarantees was based on a probability of default and loss given default methodology. In
determining the overall estimated loss from default as a percentage of the outstanding guaranteed share of secured loan facilities and finance
leases, Teekay LNG considers current and future operational performance of the vessels securing the loan facilities and finance leases and
current  and  future  expectations  of  the  proceeds  that  could  be  received  from  the  sale  of  the  vessels  securing  the  loan  facilities  and  finance
leases  in  comparison  to  the  outstanding  principal  amount  of  the  loan  facilities  and  finance  leases  if  Teekay  LNG  was  required  to  fulfill  its
obligations under the guarantees.

12. Capital Stock

The authorized capital stock of Teekay at December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, was 25 million shares of Preferred Stock, with a par value of $1 per
share, and 725 million shares of Common Stock, with a par value of $0.001 per share. As at December 31, 2020, 101,108,886 shares of Common
Stock (2019 – 100,784,422) were issued and outstanding and no shares of Preferred Stock issued.

In  December  2020, Teekay  filed  a  continuous  offering  program  (or  COP)  under  which Teekay  may  issue  shares  of  its  common  stock,  at  market
prices  up  to  a  maximum  aggregate  amount  of  $65.0  million. As  of  the  date  of  filing  this Annual  Report,  no  shares  of  common  stock  have  been
issued under this COP.

During 2018, Teekay completed a public offering of 10.0 million common shares priced at $9.75 per share, raising net proceeds of approximately
$93.0 million and issued 1.1 million shares of common stock as part of a COP initiated in 2016 generating net proceeds of $10.7 million.

Dividends may be declared and paid out of surplus, but if there is no surplus, dividends may be declared or paid out of the net profits for the fiscal
year in which the dividend is declared and for the preceding fiscal year. Surplus is the excess of the net assets of the Company over the aggregated
par value of the issued shares of the Teekay. Subject to preferences that may apply to any shares of preferred stock outstanding at the time, the
holders of common stock are entitled to share equally in any dividends that the Board of Directors may declare from time to time out of funds legally
available for dividends.

Stock-based compensation

In March 2013, the Company adopted the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (or the 2013 Plan) and suspended the 1995 Stock Option Plan and the 2003
Equity Incentive Plan (collectively referred to as the Plans). As at December 31, 2020, the Company had reserved 5,581,663 (2019 – 5,606,429)
shares of Common Stock pursuant to the 2013 Plan, for issuance upon the exercise of options or equity awards granted or to be granted.

During 2020, no stock options were granted by the Company. During the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company granted options
under the 2013 Plan to acquire up to 2,620,582 and 1,048,916 shares of Common Stock, respectively, to certain eligible officers, employees and
directors  of  the  Company.  The  options  under  the  Plans  have  ten-year  terms  and  vest  equally  over  three  years  from  the  grant  date. All  options
outstanding as of December 31, 2020, expire between March 8, 2021 and March 14, 2029, ten years after the date of each respective grant.

During 2020, no stock options were granted. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during 2019 and 2018 were $1.53 and 
$4.21, respectively. The fair value of each option granted was estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The 
following  weighted-average  assumptions  were  used  in  computing  the  fair  value  of  the  options  granted:  expected  volatility  of 65.2%  in  2019  and 
64.8% in 2018; expected life of 5.5 years in 2019 and 5.5 years in 2018; dividend yield of 5.9% in 2019 and 2.5% in 2018; risk-free interest rate of 
2.5%  in  2019,  and  2.6%  in  2018;  and  estimated  forfeiture  rate  of 6.0%  in  2019  and  7.4%  in  2018. The  expected  life  of  the  options  granted  was 

F - 35

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(all tabular amounts stated in thousands of U.S. dollars, other than share data and unless otherwise indicated)

estimated using the historical exercise behavior of employees. The expected volatility was generally based on historical volatility as calculated using 
historical data during the five years prior to the grant date.

The Company grants restricted stock units and performance share units to certain eligible officers and employees of the Company. Each restricted 
stock unit and restricted stock award is equal in value to one share of the Company’s common stock plus reinvested dividends from the grant date 
to the vesting date. The restricted stock units vest equally over three years from the grant date. Upon vesting, the value of the restricted stock units 
and restricted stock awards are paid to each grantee in the form of shares.

During 2020, the Company granted 986,314 restricted stock units with a fair value of $3.1 million, to certain of the Company’s employees. During 
2020,  a  total  of  480,498  restricted  stock  units  with  a  market  value  of  $3.0  million  vested  and  that  amount,  net  of  withholding  taxes,  was  paid  to 
grantees by issuing 256,780 shares of common stock. During 2019, the Company granted 831,118 restricted stock units with a fair value of $3.3 
million, to certain of the Company’s employees. During 2019, a total of 317,283 restricted stock units with a market value of $3.0 million vested and 
that  amount,  net  of  withholding  taxes,  was  paid  to  grantees  by  issuing  182,653  shares  of  common  stock.  During  2018,  the  Company  granted 
625,878 restricted stock units with a fair value of $5.4 million, to certain of the Company’s employees. During 2018, a total of 206,420 restricted 
stock units with a market value of $2.7 million vested and that amount, net of withholding taxes, was paid to grantees by issuing 118,209 shares of 
common  stock.  For  the  year  ended  December  31,  2020,  the  Company  recorded  an  expense  of  $5.2  million  (2019  –  $3.3  million,  2018  –  $3.0 
million) related to the restricted stock units.

During 2020, the Company also granted 203,468 (2019 – 111,808 and 2018 – 79,869) shares as restricted stock awards with a fair value of $0.6 
million  (2019  –  $0.4  million  and  2018  –  $0.7  million),  based  on  the  quoted  market  price,  to  certain  of  the  Company’s  directors.  The  shares  of 
restricted stock are issued when granted.

Share-based Compensation of Subsidiaries

During the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, 29,595, 35,419 and 17,498 common units of Teekay LNG, respectively, and 13,125, 
19,918 and 21,004 shares of Class A common stock of Teekay Tankers, respectively, with aggregate values of $0.6 million, $0.7 million, and $0.5 
million, respectively, were granted and issued to the non-management directors of the general partner of Teekay LNG and the non-management 
directors of Teekay Tankers as part of their annual compensation for 2020, 2019 and 2018.

Teekay  LNG  and  Teekay  Tankers  grant  equity-based  compensation  awards  as  incentive-based  compensation  to  certain  employees  of  Teekay’s 
subsidiaries that provide services to Teekay LNG and Teekay Tankers. During 2020, 2019 and 2018, Teekay LNG granted restricted unit awards 
and Teekay Tankers  granted  restricted  stock-based  compensation  awards  with  respect  to  243,940,  80,100  and  62,283  units  of Teekay  LNG  and 
182,120, 99,064 and 95,330 Class A common shares of Teekay Tankers, respectively, with aggregate grant date fair values of $6.2 million, $2.0 
million and $2.1 million, respectively, based on Teekay LNG and Teekay Tankers’ closing unit or stock prices on the grant dates. 

Each  restricted  unit  or  restricted  stock  unit  is  equal  in  value  to  one  of  Teekay  LNG’s  or  Teekay  Tankers’  common  units  or  common  shares  plus 
reinvested  distributions  or  dividends  from  the  grant  date  to  the  vesting  date. The  awards  vest  equally  over three  years  from  the  grant  date. Any 
portion of an award that is not vested on the date of a recipient’s termination of service is canceled, unless their termination arises as a result of the 
recipient’s retirement, in which case the award will continue to vest in accordance with the vesting schedule. Upon vesting, the awards are paid to a 
substantial majority of the grantees in the form of common units or common shares, net of withholding tax. 

During 2020, no stock options were granted by Teekay LNG and Teekay Tankers. During March 2019 and 2018, Teekay Tankers granted 218,223 
and 92,041 stock options, respectively, with an exercise price of $8.00 and $9.76 per share that have a ten-year term and vest equally over three 
years from the grant date to an officer of Teekay Tankers and to certain employees at Teekay that provide services to Teekay Tankers. During March 
2019 and 2018, Teekay Tankers also granted 58,843 and 63,012 stock options, respectively, with an exercise price of $8.00 and $9.76 per share 
that have a ten-year term and vest immediately to non-management directors of Teekay Tankers. 

13. Related Party Transactions

The  Company  provides  ship  management  and  corporate  services  to  certain  of  its  equity-accounted  joint  ventures  that  own  and  operate  LNG
carriers on long-term charters. In addition, the Company is reimbursed for costs incurred by the Company for its seafarers operating these LNG
carriers.  During  the  years  ended  December  31,  2020,  December  31,  2019  and  December  31,  2018,  the  Company  earned  $78.3  million,  $68.8
million and $55.2 million, respectively, of fees pursuant to these management agreements and reimbursement of costs.

In  September  2018,  Teekay  LNG  entered  into  an  agreement  with  its  52%-owned  joint  venture  with  Marubeni  Corporation  (or  the  MALT  Joint
Venture) to charter in one of the MALT Joint Venture's LNG carriers, the Magellan Spirit, which charter had an original term of two years and was
further extended by 21 months to June 2022. Time-charter hire expense for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $23.6 million (December 31,
2019 – $20.0 million, December 31, 2018 - $7.7 million).

On May 11, 2020, Teekay and Teekay LNG agreed to eliminate all of Teekay LNG's incentive distribution rights, which were held by Teekay GP LLC,
in exchange for the issuance to a subsidiary of Teekay Corporation of 10.75 million newly-issued common units of Teekay LNG. The common units
were  valued  at  $122.6  million,  based  on  the  prevailing  unit  price  at  the  time  of  issuance. As  a  result  of  the  share  issuance  of Teekay  LNG,  the
Company recorded a decrease to accumulated deficit of $116.6 million and an increase to accumulated other comprehensive loss of $9.0 million
with a corresponding decrease in non-controlling interests of $107.6 million. The $116.6 million represents Teekay’s dilution gain from the issuance
of new common units by Teekay LNG and is credited directly to equity, and the $9.0 million represents the change in Teekay's interest in Teekay
LNG's accumulated other comprehensive loss.

TEEKAY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(all tabular amounts stated in thousands of U.S. dollars, other than share data and unless otherwise indicated)

On May 8, 2019, Teekay sold to Brookfield Business Partners L.P. (or Brookfield) all of the Company’s remaining interests in Altera Infrastructure 
L.P. (or Altera) (previously known as Teekay Offshore Partners (or Teekay Offshore)), which included the Company’s 49% general partner interest,
common units, warrants, and an outstanding $25 million loan from the Company to Altera (described below), for total cash proceeds of $100 million
(or the 2019 Brookfield Transaction). Subsequent to the 2019 Brookfield Transaction, Altera is no longer a related party of Teekay (see Note 3).

Subsequent  to  the  deconsolidation  of  Altera  in  September  2017  and  prior  to  the  2019  Brookfield  Transaction,  the  Company  accounted  for  its 
investment  in Altera's  general  partner  and  common  units  under  the  equity  method  of  accounting.  Based  on  the  2019  Brookfield Transaction,  the 
Company remeasured its investment in Altera to fair value at March 31, 2019 based on the Altera publicly-traded unit price at that date, resulting in 
a  write-down  of  $64.9  million  reflected  in  equity  loss  on  the  Company's  consolidated  statements  of  loss  for  the  year  December  31,  2019.  The 
Company recognized a loss on sale of $8.9 million upon completion of the 2019 Brookfield Transaction in May 2019, reflected in equity loss on the 
Company's consolidated statements of loss for the year December 31, 2019. 

In March 2018, Altera entered into a loan agreement for a $125.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility, of which up to $25.0 million was 
provided  by Teekay  and  up  to  $100.0  million  was  provided  by  Brookfield. The  facility  was  scheduled  to  mature  in  October  2019. Teekay's $25.0 
million loan to Altera was among the assets sold by Teekay to Brookfield in the 2019 Brookfield Transaction.

On September 25, 2017, Teekay, Altera and Brookfield completed a strategic partnership (or the 2017 Brookfield Transaction), which resulted in the 
deconsolidation  of  Altera  as  of  that  date.  Until  December  31,  2017,  Teekay  and  its  wholly-owned  subsidiaries  directly  and  indirectly  provided 
substantially all of Altera’s ship management, commercial, technical, strategic, business development and administrative service needs. On January 
1,  2018,  Altera  acquired  a  100%  ownership  interest  in  seven  subsidiaries  (or  the  Transferred  Subsidiaries)  of  Teekay  at  carrying  value.  The 
Company  recognized  a  loss  of  $7.1  million  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2018  related  to  the  sale  of  the  Transferred  Subsidiaries  and  the 
resultant release of accumulated pension losses from accumulated other comprehensive income, which is recorded in loss on deconsolidation of 
Altera on the Company's consolidated statements of income (loss). 

Subsequent  to  their  transfer  to Altera,  the  Transferred  Subsidiaries  continue  to  provide  ship  management,  commercial,  technical,  strategic  and 
administrative  services  to  Teekay,  primarily  related  to  Teekay's  FPSO  units.  Teekay  and  certain  of  its  subsidiaries,  other  than  the  Transferred 
Subsidiaries, continued to provide certain other ship management, commercial, technical, strategic and administrative services to Altera; however, 
most of these services are no longer provided as of the end of 2020.

Revenues  recognized  by  the  Company  for  services  provided  to Altera  during  the  periods  that Altera  was  a  related  party  to  the  Company  for  the 
years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, were $7.6 million and $21.0 million, respectively, which were recorded in revenues on 
the  Company's  consolidated  statements  of  income  (loss).  Fees  paid  by  the  Company  to Altera  for  services  provided  by Altera  to  the  Company 
during the period that Altera was a related party to the Company for the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were $9.6 million 
and  $25.7  million,  respectively,  and  were  recorded  in  vessel  operating  expenses  and  general  and  administrative  expenses  on  the 
Company's consolidated statements of income (loss). 

During the period that Altera was a related party to the Company, two shuttle tankers and three FSO units of Altera were employed on long-term 
time-charter-out or bareboat contracts with subsidiaries of Teekay. Time-charter hire expense paid by the Company to Altera during the periods that 
Altera was a related party to the Company for the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were $20.8 million and $56.3 million, 
respectively.

(1) During 2020, the Company repurchased some of its Convertible Notes and 2022 Notes in the open market. The Company acquired $12.8 million of the principal of
the  Convertible  Notes  for  total  consideration  of  $10.5  million  and  $6.6  million  principal  of  the  2022  Notes  for  total  consideration  of  $6.2  million.  The  Company 
recognized a gain of $1.5 million in 2020 related to these repurchases (see note 9). 

(2)

In  May  2019,  the  Company  completed  a  cash  tender  offer  and  purchased  $460.9  million  in  aggregate  principal  amount  of  the  2020  Notes  and  issued  $250.0
million in aggregate principal amount of 9.25% senior secured notes at par due November 2022. The Company recognized a loss of $10.6 million on the purchase 
of the 2020 Notes for the year ended December 31, 2019.

(3) During September 2019, Teekay LNG refinanced the Torben Spirit by acquiring the Torben Spirit from its original Lessor and then selling the vessel to another
Lessor and leasing it back for a period of 7.5 years. As a result of this refinancing transaction, Teekay LNG recognized a loss of $1.4 million for the year ended 
December 31, 2019 on the extinguishment of the original finance lease (see Note 11).

15. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company uses derivatives to manage certain risks in accordance with its overall risk management policies.

(all tabular amounts stated in thousands of U.S. dollars, other than share data and unless otherwise indicated)

Foreign Exchange Risk

From  time  to  time  the  Company  economically  hedges  portions  of  its  forecasted  expenditures  denominated  in  foreign  currencies  with  foreign 
currency forward contracts. As at December 31, 2020, the Company was not committed to any foreign currency forward contracts.

The Company enters into cross currency swaps, and pursuant to these swaps the Company receives the principal amount in NOK on the maturity 
dates of the swaps, in exchange for payment of a fixed U.S. Dollar amount. In addition, the cross currency swaps exchange a receipt of floating 
interest  in  NOK  based  on  NIBOR  plus  a  margin  for  a  payment  of  U.S.  Dollar  fixed  interest.  The  purpose  of  the  cross  currency  swaps  is  to 
economically hedge the foreign currency exposure on the payment of interest and principal amounts of the Company’s NOK-denominated bonds 
due in 2021, 2023 and 2025. In addition, the cross currency swaps economically hedge the interest rate exposure on the NOK bonds due in 2021, 
2023  and  2025.  The  Company  has  not  designated,  for  accounting  purposes,  these  cross  currency  swaps  as  cash  flow  hedges  of  its  NOK-
denominated bonds due in 2021, 2023 and 2025. As at December 31, 2020, the Company was committed to the following cross currency swaps:

Interest Rate Risk

The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements, which exchange a receipt of floating interest for a payment of fixed interest, to reduce the 
Company’s  exposure  to  interest  rate  variability  on  its  outstanding  floating-rate  debt.  The  Company  designates  certain  of  its  interest  rate  swap 
agreements as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes.

As  at  December  31,  2020,  the  Company  was  committed  to  the  following  interest  rate  swap  agreements  related  to  its  LIBOR-based  debt  and 
EURIBOR-based debt, whereby certain of the Company’s floating-rate debt obligations were swapped with fixed-rate obligations:

Includes interest rate swaps with the notional amount reducing quarterly or semi-annually. Three interest rate swaps are subject to mandatory early termination in
2021 and 2024, at which time the swaps will be settled based on their fair value. In February 2021, one of the three swaps was terminated. 

Stock Purchase Warrants

Prior to the 2019 Brookfield Transaction, Teekay held 15.5 million Brookfield Transaction Warrants and 1,755,000 Series D Warrants of Altera (see 
Note 13). As part of the 2019 Brookfield Transaction, Teekay sold to Brookfield all of the Company’s remaining interests in Teekay Offshore, which 
included, among other things, both the Brookfield Transaction Warrants and Series D Warrants.

As at December 31, 2020, the Company had multiple interest rate swaps and cross currency swaps with the same counterparty that are subject to 
the same master agreements. Each of these master agreements provides for the net settlement of all derivatives subject to that master agreement 
through a single payment in the event of default or termination of any one derivative. The fair value of these derivatives is presented on a gross 
basis  in  the  Company’s  audited  consolidated  balance  sheets.  As  at  December  31,  2020,  these  derivatives  had  an  aggregate  fair  value  asset 
amount of $4.5 million (December 31, 2019 – $3.1 million) and an aggregate fair value liability amount of $73.7 million (December 31, 2019 – $74.3 
million). As at December 31, 2020, the Company had $3.8 million on deposit with the relevant counterparties as security for swap liabilities under 
certain  master  agreements  (December  31,  2019  –  $14.3  million).  The  deposit  is  presented  in  restricted  cash  –  current  and  long-term  on  the 
consolidated balance sheets.

The Company is exposed to credit loss to the extent the fair value represents an asset in the event of non-performance by the counterparties to the 
cross currency and interest rate swap agreements; however, the Company does not anticipate non-performance by any of the counterparties. In 
order  to  minimize  counterparty  risk,  the  Company  only  enters  into  derivative  transactions  with  counterparties  that  are  rated  A-  or  better  by 
Standard & Poor’s or A3 or better by Moody’s at the time of the transaction. In addition, to the extent possible and practical, interest rate swaps are 
entered into with different counterparties to reduce concentration risk.

TEEKAY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(all tabular amounts stated in thousands of U.S. dollars, other than share data and unless otherwise indicated)

(i)

In June 2019, Teekay LNG entered into an agreement with a contractor to supply reliquefaction equipment on certain of Teekay LNG's carriers
in 2021 and 2022, for an estimated installed cost of $59.5 million. As at December 31, 2020, the estimated remaining cost of these installations
was $40.3 million.

(ii) Teekay  LNG  has  a  30%  ownership  interest  in  the  Bahrain  LNG  Joint  Venture  which  has  an  LNG  receiving  and  regasification  terminal  in
Bahrain. As  at  December  31,  2020,  Teekay  LNG's  proportionate  share  of  the  estimated  remaining  cost  of  $11.3  million  relates  to  the  final
construction  installment  on  the  LNG  terminal. The  Bahrain  LNG  Joint  Venture  has  remaining  debt  financing  of  $24.0  million,  of  which  $7.0
million relates to Teekay LNG's proportionate share of the construction commitments included in the table above.

b)

Liquidity

Management is required to assess if the Company will have sufficient liquidity to continue as a going concern for the one-year period following the 
issuance of its financial statements. The Company had consolidated net income of $91.0 million and $984.0 million of consolidated cash flows from 
operating  activities  during  the  year  ended  December  31,  2020  and  ended  the  year  with  a  working  capital  deficit  of  $213.1  million.  This  working 
capital deficit included approximately $261.4 million related to scheduled maturities and repayments of debt in the next 12 months. 

Based on the Company’s liquidity at the date these consolidated financial statements were issued, the liquidity the Company expects to generate 
from operations over the following year, the dividends it expects to receive from its equity-accounted joint ventures, and expected debt refinancings, 
the Company expects that it will have sufficient liquidity to continue as a going concern for at least the one-year period following the issuance of 
these consolidated financial statements.

c)

Legal Proceedings and Claims

The  Company  may,  from  time  to  time,  be  involved  in  legal  proceedings  and  claims  that  arise  in  the  ordinary  course  of  business. The  Company 
believes  that  any  adverse  outcome  of  existing  claims,  individually  or  in  the  aggregate,  would  not  have  a  material  effect  on  its  financial  position, 
results of operations or cash flows, when taking into account its insurance coverage and indemnifications from charterers.

The Tangguh Joint Venture is currently undergoing a tax audit related to its tax returns filed for the 2010 and subsequent fiscal years. The UK taxing 
authority has challenged the deductibility of certain transactions not directly related to the long funding lease and the Tangguh Joint Venture has 
recorded a provision of $1.6 million in 2017 (of which Teekay LNG’s 70% share is $1.1 million) which is presented net of income tax receivable in 
accounts  receivable  in  the  Company's  consolidated  balance  sheets  as  at  December  31,  2020  (December  31,  2019  -  $1.6  million  recorded  in 
accrued liabilities).

d) Other

The Company enters into indemnification agreements with certain officers and directors. In addition, the Company enters into other indemnification 
agreements  in  the  ordinary  course  of  business.  The  maximum  potential  amount  of  future  payments  required  under  these  indemnification 
agreements is unlimited. However, the Company maintains what it believes is appropriate liability insurance that reduces its exposure and enables 
the Company to recover future amounts paid up to the maximum amount of the insurance coverage, less any deductible amounts pursuant to the 
terms of the respective policies, the amounts of which are not considered material.

Teekay LNG guarantees its proportionate share of certain loan facilities and obligations on interest rate swaps for its equity-accounted joint ventures 
for which the aggregate principal amount of the loan facilities and fair value of the interest rate swaps as at December 31, 2020 was $1.4 billion. As 
at December 31, 2020, with the exception of a debt service coverage ratio breach for one of the vessels in the Angola Joint Venture, Teekay LNG's 
equity-accounted joint ventures were in compliance with all covenants relating to these loan facilities that Teekay LNG guarantees. In March 2021, 
the Angola Joint Venture obtained a waiver for the covenant requirement that was not met at December 31, 2020.

Teekay  GP  LLC,  in  exchange  for  the  issuance  to  a  subsidiary  of  Teekay  Corporation  of  newly-issued  common  units  of  Teekay  LNG.  This
transaction was treated as a non-cash transaction in the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows.

e) On  March  27,  2020,  Teekay  Parent  sold  Golar-Nor  to  Altera  (see  Note  9).  Among  the  assets  and  liabilities  of  Golar-Nor  that  were
deconsolidated  concurrently  with  the  sale  were  Golar-Nor's  operating  lease  right-of-use  assets  and  operating  lease  liabilities  relating  to  the
Petroatlantic and Petronordic shuttle tankers totaling $50.7 million and $50.7 million, respectively.

for  in-chartered  vessels,  which  resulted  in  the  recognition  of  additional  operating  lease  right-of-use  assets  and  operating  lease  liabilities  of
$0.8 million and $47.7 million, respectively.

The associated sales of the Toledo Spirit and Teide Spirit by its owner during the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018,
respectively, resulted in the vessels being returned to their owner with the obligations related to finance lease being concurrently extinguished.
As  a  result,  the  sales  of  the  vessels  and  the  concurrent  extinguishment  of  the  corresponding  obligations  related  to  finance  lease  of  $23.6
million and $23.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, were treated as non-cash transactions
in the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows.

As at December 31, 2018, Teekay LNG had advanced $79.1 million to the Bahrain LNG Joint Venture and these advances were repayable on
November 14, 2019. On the repayment date, Teekay LNG agreed to convert $7.9 million of advances into equity and agreed to convert the
remaining  advances  of  $71.2  million  into  a  subordinated  loan  at  an  interest  rate  of  6%  with  no  fixed  repayment  terms.  Both  of  these
transactions were treated as non-cash transactions in the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows for the year ended December 31,
2019.

(1) During the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, Teekay Parent recognized impairment charges in respect of two of its FPSO units. In the first 
quarter of 2020, CNRI provided formal notice to Teekay of its intention to cease production in June 2020 and decommission the Banff field shortly thereafter. As 
such, the Company removed the Petrojarl Banff FPSO and Apollo Spirit FSO from the Banff field in the third quarter of 2020 and expects to remove the subsea 
equipment by June 2023. The Company expects to recycle the FPSO unit, which is currently in lay-up, and the subsea equipment following removal from the field.
The Company redelivered the FSO unit to its owner in the third quarter of 2020. During 2020, the asset retirement obligation for the Petrojarl Banff FPSO unit was 
increased  based  on  changes  to  cost  estimates  and  the  carrying  value  of  the  unit  was  fully  written  down.  During  2020,  the  Company  also  made  changes  to  its 
expected cash flows from the Sevan Hummingbird FPSO unit based on the market environment and oil prices, and contract discussions with the customer, which 
resulted in a full write-down of its carrying value. 

(2) On March 27, 2020, the Company entered into a bareboat charter agreement for the Petrojarl Foinaven FPSO unit, which was accounted for as a sales-type lease

and resulted in the recognition of a gain of $44.9 million during the year ended December 31, 2020. See Note 2.

(3) During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company made changes to its expected cash flows from the Suksan Salamander FSO unit, which it in-chartered 
from Altera under an operating lease, to take into account progress relating to the early termination of the in-charter and the novation of the charter contracts with 
the customer to Altera. The novation of the charter contracts was completed in the first quarter of 2021 and the in-charter terminated at the same time. The ROU
asset was written down to its estimated fair value, using a discounted cash flow approach.

(4) During the year ended December 31, 2020, the carrying values of Teekay LNG's seven wholly-owned multi-gas carriers (the Unikum Spirit, Vision Spirit, Pan Spirit, 
Cathinka Spirit, Camilla Spirit, Sonoma Spirit and Napa Spirit), were written down to their estimated fair values, using appraised values, primarily due to the lower 
near-term outlook for these types of vessels partly as a result of the economic environment at that time (including the COVID-19 pandemic), as well as Teekay 
LNG receiving notification during the year that its then-existing commercial management agreement with a third-party commercial manager was terminated and 
replaced by a new commercial management agreement in September 2020. In addition, in June 2018, the carrying values for four of Teekay LNG's seven wholly-
owned multi-gas carriers (the Napa Spirit, Pan Spirit, Camilla Spirit and Cathinka Spirit), were written down to their estimated fair values, using appraised values, 
as a result of Teekay LNG's evaluation of alternative strategies for these assets, the then-current charter rate environment and the outlook for charter rates for
these vessels at that time. 

(5) During the year ended December 31, 2020, the carrying values of nine Aframax tankers were written down to their estimated fair values, using appraised values,
primarily  due  to  the  lower  near-term  tanker  market  outlook  and  a  reduction  of  charter  rates  as  a  result  of  the  current  economic  environment,  which  has  been 
impacted by the COVID-19 global pandemic. Teekay Tankers recorded a write-down of $65.4 million related to these vessels. In February 2021, Teekay Tankers 
agreed  to  the  sale  of  two  of  these  vessels  for  an  aggregate  sales  price  of  $32.0  million.  The  vessels  were  delivered  to  their  new  owners  in  March  2021  and 
therefore, both vessels and  their related  bunkers and lube oil inventory are classified as held for sale on the Company's consolidated balance sheet of Teekay 
Tankers as at December 31, 2020. The vessels were written down to their agreed sales price less selling costs. 

(6) On April 30, 2020, Teekay Tankers completed the sale of the non-US portion of its ship-to-ship support services business as well as its LNG terminal management
business for proceeds of $27.1 million, including an adjustment of $1.1 million for the final amounts of cash and other working capital present on the closing date. 
The vessels and the related bunkers, were classified as held for sale as at December 31, 2019.

See Note 3 – Segment Reporting for the write-downs and loss on sales of vessels, by segment for 2020, 2019 and 2018.

The  Company  intends  to  settle  the  principal  of  the  Convertible  Notes  in  cash  on  conversion  and  calculates  diluted  earnings  per  share  using  the 
treasury-stock method. Stock-based awards and the conversion feature on the Convertible Notes that have an anti-dilutive effect on the calculation 
of  diluted  loss  per  common  share,  are  excluded  from  this  calculation.  For  the  years  ended  December  31,  2020,  2019  and  2018,  the  number  of 
Common Stock from stock-based awards and the conversion feature on the Convertible Notes that had an anti-dilutive effect on the calculation of 
diluted earnings per common share were 7.2 million, 3.5 million and 4.0 million respectively. In periods where a loss attributable to shareholders has 
been incurred all stock-based awards and the conversion feature on the Convertible Notes are anti-dilutive.

20. Restructuring Charges

During 2020, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $10.7 million (2019 – $12.0 million, 2018 – $4.1 million).

The  restructuring  charges  in  2020  primarily  related  to  the  cessation  of  production  of  the  Petrojarl  Banff  FPSO  unit  in  June  2020,  and  the
restructuring of the Company's tanker services and operations. In addition, the restructuring charges for the year ended December 31, 2020 also
related to severance costs resulting from the termination of the management contract for an FSO unit based in Australia (the severance costs were
partially  recoverable  from  the  customer  and  the  recovery  was  presented  in  revenue),  and  severance  costs  resulting  from  the  reorganization  and
realignment of resources of the Company's shared service function of which a portion of the costs were recovered from the customer, Altera (see
Note 13), and the recovery was presented in revenue.

The restructuring charges in 2019 primarily related to severance costs resulting from the termination of certain management contracts in Teekay
Parent of which these costs were fully recovered from the customer and the recovery is presented in revenue, severance costs resulting from the
reorganization and realignment of resources of the Company's shared service function, as well as from the termination of the charter contract for
the Toledo Spirit Suezmax tanker in Teekay LNG upon the sale of the vessel in January 2019.

The restructuring charges in 2018 primarily related to severance costs resulting from reorganization and realignment of resources of certain of the
Company's business development, marine solutions and fleet operations functions to better respond to the changing business environment.

At  December  31,  2020  and  2019,  $2.4  million  and  $0.8  million,  respectively,  of  restructuring  liabilities  were  recorded  in  accrued  liabilities  on  the
consolidated balance sheets.

21.

Income Taxes

Teekay  and  a  majority  of  its  subsidiaries  are  not  subject  to  income  tax  in  the  jurisdictions  in  which  they  are  incorporated  because  they  do  not
conduct business or operate in those jurisdictions. However, among others, the Company’s U.K. and Norwegian subsidiaries are subject to income
taxes.

Substantially all of the Company's estimated net operating loss carryforwards of $838.5 million relate primarily to its U.K., Spanish, Norwegian and Luxembourg 
subsidiaries and, to a lesser extent, to its Australian subsidiaries. The Company had estimated disallowed finance costs in Spain and Norway of approximately
$9.2 million and $15.4 million, respectively, at December 31, 2020, which are available indefinitely and 10 years, respectively, from the year the costs are incurred 
for  offset  against  future  taxable  income  in  Spain  and  Norway,  respectively. The  Company's  estimated  tax  losses  in  Luxembourg  are  available  for  offset  against 
taxable future income in Luxembourg, either indefinitely for losses arising prior to 2017, or for 17 years for losses arising subsequent to 2016.

Included in the Company's current income tax expense are provisions for uncertain tax positions relating to freight taxes. Freight taxes recognized 
for positions related to the current year will vary between years based upon changes in the trading patterns of the Company's vessels.

Interest and penalties related to freight taxes during the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 are included in the table above, and were 
approximately  $19.7  million,  $13.2  million,  and  $9.2  million,  respectively. As  at  December  31,  2020,  2019,  and  2018,  total  interest  and  penalties 
recognized were $39.7 million, $30.7 million, and $19.9 million respectively. 

In 2020, the Company obtained further advice regarding freight taxes in a certain jurisdiction due to the uncertainty surrounding a recent tax law 
change and the limited transparency into the actions of the tax authority in this jurisdiction. Based on this new information and other considerations 
related to the future application of the tax law to past periods, the Company increased its uncertain tax liabilities for this jurisdiction for periods prior 
to 2020 by $9.3 million.

TEEKAY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(all tabular amounts stated in thousands of U.S. dollars, other than share data and unless otherwise indicated)

In  addition,  in  2020,  the  Company  secured  an  agreement  with  a  tax  authority,  which  was  based  in  part  on  an  initiative  of  the  tax  authority  in 
response to the COVID-19 global pandemic and included the waiver of interest and penalties on unpaid taxes. As a result, the Company reduced its 
freight tax liabilities for this jurisdiction by $16.3 million to $9.4 million, of which $8.5 million was paid in August 2020 with respect to open tax years 
up to and including 2019. 

The  Company  does  not  presently  anticipate  that  its  provisions  for  these  uncertain  tax  positions  will  significantly  increase  in  the  next  12  months; 
however, this is dependent on the jurisdictions in which vessel trading activity occurs. The Company reviews its freight tax obligations on a regular 
basis and may update its assessment of its tax positions based on available information at that time. Such information may include legal advice as 
to  applicability  of  freight  taxes  in  relevant  jurisdictions.  Freight  tax  regulations  are  subject  to  change  and  interpretation;  therefore,  the  amounts 
recorded by the Company may change accordingly.

22. Equity-accounted Investments

The equity investments of Teekay LNG include the following:

•

•

•

•

•

A  33%  ownership  interest  in  the Angola  Joint  Venture  that  owns  four  160,400-cubic  meter  LNG  carriers  (or  the  Angola  LNG  Carriers). The
other partners of the Angola Joint Venture are NYK (33%) and Mitsui & Co. Ltd. (34%).

Teekay  LNG  has  guaranteed  its  33%  share  of  the  secured  loan  facilities  and  interest  rate  swaps  of  the Angola  Joint  Venture  for  which  the
aggregate principal amount of the secured loan facilities and fair value of the interest rate swaps was $203.4 million as at December 31, 2020.
As a result, Teekay LNG has recorded a guarantee liability which has a carrying value of $0.3 million as at December 31, 2020 (December 31,
2019 – $0.5 million), and is included as part of other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

In  December  2015,  Teekay  LNG  (30%)  entered  into  an  agreement  with  National  Oil  &  Gas  Authority  (or  NOGA)  (30%),  Gulf  Investment
Corporation  (24%),  and  Samsung  C&T  (16%)  to  form  the  Bahrain  LNG  Joint  Venture,  for  the  development  of  an  LNG  receiving  and
regasification  terminal  in  Bahrain.  The  LNG  terminal  includes  an  offshore  LNG  receiving  jetty  and  breakwater,  an  adjacent  regasification
platform, subsea gas pipelines from the platform to shore, an onshore gas receiving facility, and an onshore nitrogen production facility with a
total LNG terminal capacity of 800 million standard cubic feet per day and will be owned and operated under a 20-year customer contract. In
addition, Teekay LNG has supplied an FSU in connection with this terminal commencing in September 2018 through a 21-year time-charter
contract with the Bahrain LNG Joint Venture.

As at December 31, 2020, Teekay LNG had advanced $73.4 million (December 31, 2019 – $73.4 million) to the Bahrain LNG Joint Venture.
These advances bear interest at 6.0%. For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the interest earned on these loans amounted to
$4.6 million and $2.8 million, respectively.

As at December 31, 2020, Teekay LNG has a 50/50 joint venture with Exmar (or the Excalibur Joint Venture). On January 31, 2018, Teekay
LNG sold its interest in another 50/50 joint venture with Exmar relating to the Excelsior LNG carrier (or the Excelsior Joint Venture) for gross
proceeds of approximately $54 million. As a result of the sale, Teekay LNG recorded a gain of $5.6 million for the year ended December 31,
2018, which is included in equity income (loss) in the  consolidated statements of income (loss). Teekay LNG has guaranteed its  ownership
share of the secured loan facility of the Excalibur Joint Venture for which the principal amount of the secured loan facility was $15.9 million as
at  December  31,  2020.  As  a  result,  Teekay  LNG  has  recorded  a  guarantee  liability  which  has  a  carrying  value  of  $0.1  million  as  at
December 31, 2020.

On initial acquisition, the basis difference between Teekay LNG's investment and the carrying value of the Excalibur Joint Venture's net assets
was substantially attributed to an increase to the carrying value of the vessel of the Excalibur Joint Venture in accordance with the finalized
purchase price allocation. At December 31, 2020, the unamortized amount of the basis difference was $12.0 million (December 31, 2019 –
$12.5 million).

As at December 31, 2020, Teekay LNG has a 50/50 joint venture agreement with Exmar NV. Teekay LNG has guaranteed its 50% share of
secured loan facilities and four finance leases in the Exmar LPG Joint Venture for which the aggregate principal amount of the secured loan
facilities and finance leases as at December 31, 2020 was $238.2 million. As a result, Teekay LNG has recorded a guarantee liability which
has a carrying value of $1.3 million as at December 31, 2020 (December 31, 2019 – $0.9 million), and is included as part of other long-term
liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

As at December 31, 2020, Teekay LNG had advanced $42.3 million (December 31, 2019 – $52.3 million) to the Exmar LPG Joint Venture,
which bears interest at LIBOR plus 0.50% and has no fixed repayment terms. As at December 31, 2020, the interest receivable on these loans
amounted to $nil (December 31, 2019 – $0.3 million). These amounts are included in the table below.

On  initial  acquisition,  the  basis  difference  between  Teekay  LNG's  investment  and  the  carrying  value  of  the  Exmar  LPG  Joint  Venture's  net
assets  was  substantially  attributed  to  the  value  of  the  vessels  and  charter  agreements  of  the  Exmar  LPG  Joint  Venture  and  goodwill  in
accordance  with  the  finalized  purchase  price  allocation. At  December  31,  2020,  the  unamortized  amount  of  the  basis  difference  was  $18.2
million (December 31, 2019 – $23.6 million).

As at December 31, 2020, Teekay LNG has a 52% ownership interest in its LNG-related joint venture agreement with Marubeni Corporation
(or  the  MALT  Joint  Venture).  Teekay  LNG  has  guaranteed  its  52%  share  of  certain  of  the  MALT  Joint  Venture's  secured  loan  facilities,  for
which the principal amount of the secured loan facilities was $134.6 million as at December 31, 2020. As a result, Teekay LNG has recorded a
guarantee liability, which has a carrying value of $0.2 million as at December 31, 2020 (December 31, 2019 – $0.3 million) and is included as
part of other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

As at December 31, 2020, Teekay LNG has a 30% ownership interest in two LNG carriers, the Pan Asia and the Pan Americas, and a 20%
ownership  interest  in  two  LNG  carriers,  the  Pan  Europe  and  the  Pan  Africa,  through  its  Pan  Union  Joint  Venture.  On  initial  acquisition,  the
basis  difference  between  Teekay  LNG's  investment  and  the  carrying  value  of  the  Pan  Union  Joint  Venture's  net  assets  was  substantially
attributed to ship construction support agreements and the time-charter contracts. As at December 31, 2020, the unamortized amount of the
basis difference was $10.0 million (December 31, 2019 – $10.5 million).

As at December 31, 2020, Teekay LNG has a 40% ownership interest in the RasGas III Joint Venture, and the remaining 60% is held by Qatar

As at December 31, 2020, Teekay LNG has a 50/50 joint venture, the Yamal LNG Joint Venture, which has six icebreaker LNG carriers that
carry out international transportation of LNG for a project located on the Yamal Peninsula in Northern Russia. Teekay LNG has guaranteed its
50% share of a secured loan facility and interest rate swaps in the Yamal LNG Joint Venture for which the aggregate principal amount of the
loan facility and fair value of the interest rate swaps as at December 31, 2020 was $807.7 million. As a result, Teekay LNG has recorded a
guarantee liability, which has a carrying value of $2.2 million as at December 31, 2020 (December 31, 2019 – $2.2 million) and is included as
part of other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

Teekay Tankers owns a 50% interest in a joint venture arrangement between Teekay Tankers and Wah Kwong Maritime Transport Holdings Limited 
(or Wah Kwong Joint Venture) which owns one single VLCC tanker. The vessel is currently trading on spot voyage charters in an RSA managed by 
a third party.

On May 8, 2019, Teekay sold to Brookfield all of the Company's remaining interests in Altera, which included the Company’s 49% general partner 
interest, common units, warrants, and an outstanding $25 million loan from the Company to Altera for total cash proceeds of $100 million. Prior to 
the sale in May 2019, Teekay included the results of Altera as an equity-accounted investment in its financial results. The Company wrote-down 
the  investment  in Altera  by  $64.9  million  and  recognized  a  loss  on  sale  of  $8.9  million  which  are  included  in  equity  loss  on  the  consolidated 
statements of income (loss) for the year ended December 31, 2019.

In November 2011, Teekay acquired a 40% interest in a recapitalized Magnora ASA (or Magnora, previously Sevan Marine ASA) for approximately 
$25 million and as at December 31, 2017, the Company had a 43.5% interest in Magnora. In November 2018, Teekay sold its ownership interest in 
Magnora for approximately $27 million and recognized a gain of $15.3 million, which is presented in equity income on the consolidated statements 
of income (loss) for the year ended December 31, 2018.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recorded equity income of $77.3 million (2019 – loss of $14.5 million, and 2018 – income of 
$61.1 million). The equity income in 2020 was primarily due to the Company’s share of net income from the Yamal LNG Joint Venture, the MALT 
Joint Venture, the Pan Union Joint Venture, the RasGas III Joint Venture and the Wah Kwong Joint Venture; partially offset by the share of net loss 
from the Bahrain LNG Joint Venture. For the year ended December 31, 2020, equity income included $19.1 million related to the Company’s share 
of unrealized losses on interest rate swaps in the equity-accounted investments (2019 – losses of $12.9 million and 2018 – gains of $17.6 million).

23. Subsequent Events

a) On February 8, 2021, the Tangguh Joint Venture, of which Teekay LNG has a 70% ownership interest, refinanced its $191.5 million term loan

which was scheduled to mature in 2021, by entering into a new $191.5 million term loan maturing in February 2026.

b)

c)

In February 2021, Teekay Tankers entered into agreements to sell two Aframax tankers for an aggregate price of $32.0 million. The vessels
and related bunkers and lube oil inventory were classified as held for sale on the consolidated balance sheet as at December 31, 2020, and
the vessels were written down to the agreed sales price less selling costs. Both vessels were delivered in March 2021.

In  March  2021,  Teekay  Tankers  declared  purchase  options  to  acquire  six Aframax  tankers  for  a  total  cost  of  $128.8  million,  as  part  of  the
repurchase  options  under  the  sale-leaseback  arrangements  described  in  note  10.  Teekay  Tankers  expects  to  complete  the  purchase  and
delivery of these vessels in September 2021.

NOTES TO CONDENSED NON-CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF REGISTRANT

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of presentation

The  accompanying  condensed  non-consolidated  financial  information  is  required  by  SEC  Regulation  S-X  5-04  for  Teekay  Corporation  (or
Teekay),  which  requires  the  inclusion  of  financial  information  for  Teekay  on  a  stand-alone  basis  if  the  restricted  net  assets  of  consolidated
subsidiaries exceed 25% of total consolidated net assets as of the last day of its most recent fiscal year. The restricted net assets of consolidated
subsidiaries was $276.3 million, or 57% of total consolidated net assets, as at December 31, 2020.

Teekay’s  investments  in  subsidiaries  are  presented  in  this  financial  information  under  the  cost  method  of  accounting,  whereby  Teekay’s
investment in subsidiaries is measured initially at cost. Under the cost method of accounting for investments in common stock, dividends are the
basis for recognition of earnings from an investment. Under this method, an investor recognizes as income dividends received that are distributed
from  net  accumulated  earnings  of  the  investee  since  the  date  of  acquisition  by  the  investor.  The  net  accumulated  earnings  of  an  investee
subsequent  to  the  date  of  investment  are  recognized  by  the  investor  only  to  the  extent  distributed  by  the  investee  as  dividends.  Dividends
received in excess of earnings subsequent to the date of investment are considered a return of investment and are recorded as reductions of
cost  of  the  investment. Teekay  received  dividends  from  its  subsidiaries  of  $58.6  million  (2020),  $62.1  million  (2019)  and  $32.8  million  (2018),
respectively.

Teekay recognizes an impairment loss on its investments in its subsidiaries when the fair value of its investments is lower than the carrying value.
The fair value of Teekay's investments in its subsidiaries is primarily influenced by the publicly-traded price of Teekay LNG's common units, the
publicly-traded share price of Teekay Tankers' common shares, and the fair value of the three FPSO units, as of the respective balance sheet
dates.

A  substantial  amount  of  Teekay’s  operating,  investing  and  financing  activities  are  conducted  by  its  affiliates  and  not  reflected  in  this  financial
information. The condensed non-consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with Teekay’s consolidated financial statements.

The  Company’s  8.5%  senior  unsecured  notes  were  due  January  15,  2020  with  an  original  aggregate  principal  amount  of  $450  million  (or  the 
Original Notes). In November 2015, the Company issued an aggregate principal amount of $200 million of the Company’s 8.5% senior unsecured 
notes  due  on  January  15,  2020  (or  the  Additional  Notes)  at  99.0%  of  face  value,  plus  accrued  interest  from  July  15,  2015.  Prior  to  2020,  the 
Company repurchased $613.3 million in aggregate principal amount, and in January 2020, the Company repaid all remaining Original Notes and 
Additional Notes at maturity. 

In May 2019, the Company issued $250.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 9.25% senior secured notes at par due November 2022 (or 
the 2022 Notes). The 2022 Notes are guaranteed on a senior secured basis by certain of the Company's subsidiaries and are secured by first-
priority liens on two of Teekay's FPSO units, a pledge of the equity interests in Teekay's subsidiary that owns all of Teekay's common units of 
Teekay LNG Partners L.P. and all of Teekay’s Class A common shares of Teekay Tankers Ltd. and a pledge of the equity interests in Teekay's 
subsidiaries that own Teekay Parent's three FPSO units.

The Company may redeem the 2022 Notes in whole or in part at a redemption price equal to a percentage of the principal amount of the 2022 
Notes  to  be  redeemed  plus  accrued  and  unpaid  interest  to,  but  excluding,  the  redemption  date,  as  follows:  104.625%  at  any  time  on  or  after 
November  15,  2020,  but  prior  to  November  15,  2021;  102.313%  at  any  time  on  or  after  November  15,  2021,  but  prior  to  August  15,  2022; 
and 100% at any time on or after August 15, 2022. 

On January 26, 2018, the Company completed a private offering of $125.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5% Convertible Senior Notes 
due January 15, 2023 (the Convertible Notes). The Convertible Notes are convertible into Teekay’s common stock, initially at a rate of 85.4701 
shares  of  common  stock  per  $1,000  principal  amount  of  Convertible  Notes. This  represents  an  initial  effective  conversion  price  of  $11.70  per 
share of common stock. The initial conversion price represents a premium of 20% to the concurrent common stock offering price of $9.75 per 
share. On issuance of the Convertible Notes, $104.6 million of the net proceeds was reflected in long-term debt, including unamortized discount, 
and  is  being  accreted  to  $125.0  million  over  its  five-year  term  through  interest  expense.  The  remaining  amount  of  the  net  proceeds  of  $16.1 
million was allocated to the conversion feature and reflected in additional paid-in capital. 

F - 52

During 2020, the Company commenced repurchasing some of its Convertible Notes and 2022 Notes in the open market. Teekay Parent acquired 
$12.8 million of the principal of the Convertible Notes for total consideration of $10.5 million and $6.6 million principal of the 2022 Notes for total 
consideration of $6.2 million, recognizing a gain of $1.5 million in 2020, included in other on the Company's audited statements of loss.
