(1)   The performance units are scheduled to vest in full on the third anniversary of the award date, subject to (a) earlier vesting on an employee’s attainment of retirement age or the termination or constructive termination of an employee’s employment in connection with a change of control or due to death or disability and (b) such other terms as are set forth in the award agreement. The number of performance units shown represent units with an initial notional value of $100 and are not equivalent to shares of Oceaneering common stock. The Compensation Committee has approved specific financial goals and performance measures based on cumulative cash flow from operations and a comparison of return on invested capital and cost of capital for the three-year period January 1, 2009 through December 31, 2011 to be used as the basis for the final value of the performance units under the Incentive Plan. The final value of each performance unit may range from $0 to $125. Upon settlement, the value of the performance units will be payable in cash.
 
(2)   Restricted stock units are scheduled to vest in full on the third anniversary of the award date, subject to (a) earlier vesting on an employee’s attainment of retirement age or the termination or constructive termination of an employee’s employment in connection with a change of control or due to death or disability and (b) such other terms as are set forth in the award agreement. Each restricted stock unit represents the equivalent of one share of Oceaneering common stock. Settlement of the restricted stock units will be made in shares of Oceaneering common stock.

Upon settlement, the value of the performance units will be payable in cash.
          The restricted stock units awarded to Mr. Huff are scheduled to vest on a pro-rata basis over three years from the award date by reason of Mr. Huff having attained retirement age as of the award date subject to (a) earlier vesting by reason of Mr. Huff’s cessation as service as Chairman and (b) such other terms as are set forth in the award agreement. Each restricted stock unit represents the equivalent of one share of Oceaneering common stock. Settlement of the restricted stock units will be made in shares of the Company’s common stock.
          The Compensation Committee approved the grant of an aggregate of 162,575 restricted stock units and 117,975 performance units, and the Board approved the grant of an aggregate of 10,000 performance units, 10,000 restricted stock units, and 32,000 shares of restricted stock, including the awards referenced in the table and the discussion above.
