Schlumberger Holdings Corporation ("SHC" or the "Company") today
announced the commencement of a private offer to exchange three
series of senior notes in the table below (collectively the "Old
Notes") for a new series of senior notes to be due in 2028 (the
"New Notes"). The offer is referred to herein as the "Exchange
Offer." The aggregate principal amount of Old Notes that are
accepted for exchange will be based on the order of acceptance
priority for such series as set forth in the table below, such that
the aggregate principal amount of Old Notes accepted results in the
issuance of New Notes in an amount not exceeding $1,250,000,000
(the "New Notes Cap"). If less than $500,000,000 of New Notes would
be issued (the "Minimum New Notes Size"), then all Old Notes
tenders will be cancelled and no New Notes will be created.
The table below summarizes the terms of the Old Notes and the
consideration of the Exchange Offer:

Holders whose Old Notes are accepted for exchange will receive
in cash accrued and unpaid interest from the last applicable
interest payment date to, but excluding, the date on which the
exchange of such Old Notes is settled, and amounts due in lieu of
fractional amounts of New Notes.
The Exchange Offer is being conducted upon the terms and subject
to the conditions set forth in an offering memorandum (the
"Offering Memorandum") dated March 13, 2019. The Company reserves
the right, in its sole discretion, to increase the New Notes Cap
and the 2025 Notes Cap following commencement of the Exchange
Offer.
Only Eligible Holders of Old Notes who validly tender their Old
Notes at or before 5:00 p.m. New York City time on March 26, 2019,
subject to any extension by SHC (the "Early Participation Date"),
who do not validly withdraw their tenders and whose Old Notes are
accepted for exchange, will receive an early participation
payment.
Subject to the New Notes Cap, the 2025 Notes Cap and proration,
all Old Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn on or
before the Early Participation Date having a higher acceptance
priority level will be accepted before any tendered Old Notes
having a lower acceptance priority level are accepted in the
Exchange Offer, and all Old Notes validly tendered after the Early
Participation Date having a higher acceptance priority level will
be accepted before any Old Notes tendered after the Early
Participation Date having a lower acceptance priority level are
accepted in the Exchange Offer. However, Old Notes validly tendered
and not validly withdrawn on or before the Early Participation Date
will be accepted by us in priority to Old Notes tendered after the
Early Participation Date, even if the Old Notes tendered after the
Early Participation Date have a higher acceptance priority level
than the Old Notes tendered prior to the Early Participation
Date.
The 2025 Notes subject to the 2025 Notes Cap may be subject to
proration if the aggregate principal amount of 2025 Notes validly
tendered and not validly withdrawn is greater than the 2025 Notes
Cap. Furthermore, if acceptance of all validly tendered Old Notes
of a particular series (together with all validly tendered Old
Notes with a greater acceptance priority to such series) would
cause us to issue a principal amount of New Notes greater than the
New Notes Cap, then the Exchange Offer will be oversubscribed and
if we accept any of such series of Old Notes in the Exchange Offer,
we will accept for exchange tendered Old Notes of such series on a
prorated basis, with the aggregate principal amount of each
holder's validly tendered Old Notes of such series accepted by us
determined by multiplying each holder's tender by the applicable
proration factor, and rounding the product down to the nearest
$1,000 principal amount for such series, such that the New Notes
Cap will not be exceeded. Furthermore, if the Exchange Offer is
fully subscribed as of the Early Participation Date, Eligible
Holders who validly tender Old Notes after the Early Participation
Date will not have any of their Old Notes so tendered accepted for
exchange. If the 2025 Notes are subscribed up to the 2025 Notes Cap
as of the Early Participation Date, Eligible Holders who validly
tender 2025 Notes after the Early Participation Date will not have
any of their 2025 Notes so tendered accepted for exchange (absent
any subsequent increase to the 2025 Notes Cap).
The Exchange Offer will expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City
time, on April 9, 2019, unless extended or earlier terminated by
SHC. Tenders of Old Notes submitted in the Exchange Offer at or
prior to 5:00 p.m. New York City time on March 26, 2019, subject to
any extension by SHC (the "Withdrawal Deadline"), may be validly
withdrawn at any time prior to the Withdrawal Deadline, but
thereafter will be irrevocable, except in certain limited
circumstances where additional withdrawal rights are required by
law (as determined by SHC). Tenders submitted in the Exchange Offer
after the Withdrawal Deadline will be irrevocable except in the
limited circumstances where additional withdrawal rights are
required by law (as determined by SHC).
The Exchange Offer is only made, and the New Notes are only
being offered and will only be issued, and copies of the offering
documents will only be made available, to a holder of Old Notes who
has certified its status as either (a) a "qualified institutional
buyer" as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act") or (b) (i) a person who is not a
"U.S. person" as defined under Regulation S under the Securities

estate or trust) for the benefit or account of a non-"U.S. person",

Economic Area which has implemented Directive 2003/71/EC , as

Directive and (iii) if located or resident in Canada, is located or

such term is defined in National Instrument 45-106 - Prospectus
Exemptions ("NI 45-106"), and, if resident in Ontario, section
73.3(1) of the Securities Act (Ontario), in each case, that is not
an individual unless that person is also a "permitted client" as
defined in National Instrument 31-103 - Registration Requirements,
Exemptions and Ongoing Registrant Obligations ("NI 31-103") (each,
an "Eligible Holder").

or any state securities laws. Therefore, the New Notes may not be
