Explanation of Responses:

1. On July 1, 2019, Weatherford International plc (the "Issuer"), Weatherford International Ltd., and Weatherford International, LLC (collectively, the "Company") commenced voluntary cases under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the "Bankruptcy Court") under the caption In re Weatherford International plc, et al. seeking relief under the provisions of Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code. On September 9, 2019, the Company filed with the Bankruptcy Court the proposed Second Amended Joint Prepackaged Plan of Reorganization of Weatherford International plc and its Affiliate Debtors, dated September 9, 2019 (the "Plan"). On September 11, 2019, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order, Docket No. 343, confirming and approving the Plan. On December 13, 2019 (the "Effective Date"), the Plan became effective pursuant to its terms and the Company emerged from bankruptcy.
