Item 5.03

Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
|
As described below under Item
5.07, on May 2, 2018, stockholders of McDermott International, Inc., a Panamanian corporation (McDermott), approved an amendment (the Amendment) to McDermotts amended and restated articles of incorporation (as amended
to date, the Articles) to effect a
3-to-1
reverse stock split (the Reverse Stock Split) of the shares of common stock, par value $1.00 per share,
of McDermott (McDermott Common Stock) with an effective time of 11:59 P.M. (New York City time) (the Effective Time) on the date immediately prior to the date of the occurrence of the Exchange Offer Effective Time, as defined
in the joint proxy statement/prospectus (the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus) of McDermott and Chicago Bridge & Iron Company N.V., a public company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Netherlands
(CB&I), dated March 29, 2018, which was first mailed to stockholders of McDermott on or about March 30, 2018. The Amendment was filed with the Public Registry of Panama on May 2, 2018.
The full text of the Amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
Upon the effectiveness of the Amendment at the Effective Time and as a result of the Reverse Stock Split, the shares of McDermott Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such time will be combined into a smaller number of shares, such that a McDermott stockholder will own one share of McDermott Common Stock for each three shares of McDermott Common Stock held by that stockholder immediately
prior to the Effective Time, subject to the treatment of fractional share interests described below. Also, as a result of the Reverse Stock Split, the number of shares of McDermott Common Stock that would be issued in the proposed combination
between McDermott and CB&I will be reduced to approximately
one-third
of the number of shares that would be so issued if the Reverse Stock Split had not been effected. Additionally, at the Effective Time,
the Amendment will decrease the authorized shares of McDermott Common Stock to 255,000,000 shares.
No fractional shares will be issued if, as a result of
the Reverse Stock Split, a holder of record of shares of McDermott Common Stock would otherwise become entitled to a fractional share. Instead, any fractional share interest resulting from the Reverse Stock Split will be rounded up to the nearest
whole share.
Item 5.07
|
Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
|
McDermott held a special meeting of stockholders
(the Special Meeting) on May 2, 2018. A total of 219,279,392 shares of McDermott Common Stock, out of a total of 285,899,713 shares of McDermott Common Stock, outstanding and entitled to vote as of the close of business on
April 4, 2018 (the record date for the Special Meeting), were present in person or represented by proxy. Set forth below is a summary of the final voting results on each matter submitted to a vote of stockholders at the McDermott
Special Meeting. Each proposal is described in more detail in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus.
Proposal 1: McDermott Reverse Stock Split Articles
Amendment Resolution
McDermotts stockholders approved a resolution providing for an amendment to McDermotts amended and restated articles
of incorporation, as amended to date: (i) to effect the Reverse Stock Split and (ii) to decrease McDermotts authorized shares of McDermott Common Stock to 255,000,000 shares, an amount sufficient to enable the transactions
contemplated under the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of December 18, 2017, by and among McDermott, McDermott Technology, B.V. (McDermott Bidco), CB&I and the other parties thereto (as amended or supplemented from time
to time, the Business Combination Agreement), following the Reverse Stock Split (the McDermott Reverse Stock Split Articles Amendment Resolution), with the voting results as follows:

|
Proposal 2: McDermott Authorized Capital Articles Amendment Resolution
McDermotts stockholders approved a resolution providing for an amendment to the Articles to increase the authorized shares of McDermott Common Stock to
765,000,000 shares, an amount sufficient to enable the transactions contemplated under the Business Combination Agreement without the Reverse Stock Split (the McDermott Authorized Capital Articles Amendment Resolution), provided that, if
approved, the McDermott Authorized Capital Articles Amendment Resolution was to become effective only if the McDermott Reverse Stock Split Articles Amendment Resolution had not been approved at the McDermott Special Meeting, with the voting results
as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
For
|
|
Against
|
|
Abstentions
|
204,617,758
|
|
14,155,084
|
|
506,550
|
Since the McDermott Reverse Stock Split Articles Resolution was approved, the McDermott Authorized Capital Articles Amendment
Resolution did not, and will not, become effective.
Proposal 3: McDermott Stock Issuance
McDermotts stockholders approved the issuance of shares of McDermott Common Stock (the McDermott Stock Issuance) in exchange for all shares
of common stock of CB&I, par value EUR 0.01 per share, in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement at an exchange ratio of 2.47221 shares of McDermott Common Stock or, if the Reverse Stock Split has
occurred, 0.82407 shares of McDermott Common Stock, with the voting results as follows:

Proposal 4: The McDermott Meeting Adjournment
Because the other proposals were approved, it was not necessary to adjourn the Special Meeting to solicit additional votes.
On May 2, 2018, McDermott and CB&I issued a joint press release announcing the
results of the stockholder votes at their respective special meetings. A copy of that press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
The press release also announced that, as a result of the stockholders approval of the McDermott Reverse
Stock Split Articles Amendment Resolution and the McDermott Stock Issuance, the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split is expected to be 11:59 p.m. Eastern time on May 9, 2018 and the closing of the combination with CB&I is expected to
occur on May 10, 2018, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. With the receipt of the stockholders approvals from both McDermott and CB&I, McDermott and CB&I believe that all material conditions to the
combination, other than those to be satisfied on the closing date, have been satisfied. Additionally, the press release announced the final exchange offer ratio is 0.82407 shares of McDermott Common Stock for each share of CB&I common stock
properly tendered and not withdrawn in McDermott Bidcos offer to exchange (the Exchange Offer) shares of McDermott Common Stock for any and all issued and outstanding shares of common stock of CB&I, upon the terms and subject
to the conditions set forth in the exchange offer prospectus filed with the SEC on March 29, 2018, which is scheduled to expire at 12:01 a.m., Eastern time, on May 10, 2018, unless the Exchange Offer is extended or earlier terminated by
McDermott Bidco.
Forward-Looking Statements
McDermott cautions that statements in this communication which are forward-looking, and provide other than historical information, involve risks, contingencies
and uncertainties that may impact actual results of operations of McDermott, including after the proposed business combination with CB&I. These forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements about the expected timing of the
Reverse Stock Split and the closing of the combination. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in those forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that those expectations will prove to have been correct. Those
statements are made by using various underlying assumptions and are subject to numerous risks, contingencies and uncertainties, including, among others: the risk that a condition to the closing of the proposed combination may not be satisfied, or
that the proposed combination may fail to close, including as the result of any inability to obtain the financing for the combination; the outcome of any legal proceedings, regulatory proceedings or enforcement matters that may be instituted
relating to the proposed combination; the costs incurred to consummate the proposed combination; the possibility that the expected synergies from the proposed combination will not be realized, or will not be realized within the expected time period;
difficulties related to the integration of the two companies; the credit ratings of the combined businesses following the proposed combination; disruption from the proposed combination making it more difficult to maintain relationships with
customers, employees, regulators or suppliers; the diversion of management time and attention on the proposed combination; adverse changes in the markets in which McDermott and CB&I operate or credit markets; the inability of McDermott or
CB&I to execute on contracts in backlog successfully; changes in project design or schedules; the availability of qualified personnel; changes in the terms, scope or timing of contracts; contract cancellations; change orders and other
modifications and actions by customers and other business counterparties of McDermott and CB&I; changes in industry norms; and adverse outcomes in legal or other dispute resolution proceedings. If one or more of these risks materialize, or if
underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those expected. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. For a more complete discussion of these and other risk factors, please see each of
McDermotts and CB&Is annual and quarterly filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including their respective annual reports on
Form 10-K for
the year ended
December 31, 2017 and their respective quarterly reports on Form
10-Q
for the quarter ended March 31, 2017. This communication reflects the views of McDermotts management as of the date hereof.
Except to the extent required by applicable law, McDermott undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement.
Additional
Information and Where to Find It

a solicitation of any proxy, vote or approval with respect to the proposed transactions or otherwise, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or
qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. In connection with the proposed transactions, McDermott has filed a Registration Statement on
Form S-4 (the
Registration
Statement) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) that includes (1) a joint proxy statement of McDermott and CB&I, which also constitutes a prospectus of McDermott and (2) an offering prospectus of

joint proxy statement/prospectus to stockholders of McDermott and shareholders of CB&I. In addition, McDermott and McDermott Technology, B.V. have filed a Tender Offer Statement on
Schedule TO-T (the
Schedule TO) with the
SEC and CB&I has filed a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on
Schedule 14D-9 (the

respect to the exchange offer. The solicitation and offer to purchase shares of CB&Is common stock is only being made pursuant to the Schedule TO and
related offer to purchase. CB&Is shareholders approved the proposed transactions at CB&Is special general meeting held on May 2, 2018, and McDermotts stockholders approved the proposed transactions at McDermotts
special meeting held on May 2, 2018. This material is not a substitute for the joint proxy statement/prospectus, the Schedule TO, the
Schedule 14D-9 or
the Registration Statement or for any
other document that McDermott or CB&I may file with the SEC and send to McDermotts and/or CB&Is shareholders in connection with the proposed transactions. BEFORE MAKING ANY INVESTMENT DECISION OR DECISION WITH RESPECT TO THE
EXCHANGE OFFER, WE URGE INVESTORS OF CB&I AND MCDERMOTT TO READ THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT, THE SCHEDULE TO (INCLUDING THE OFFER TO PURCHASE, RELATED LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL AND OTHER OFFER DOCUMENTS) AND
SCHEDULE 14D-9, AS
