To the Trustees of and Plan Administrator of the
Ensco Multinational Savings Plan
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the Ensco Multinational Savings Plan as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Plan is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Ensco Multinational Savings Plan as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements referred to above. The supplemental schedule of Schedule I - Investments as of December 31, 2012, is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements referred to above taken as a whole.

ENSCO MULTINATIONAL SAVINGS PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. PLAN ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION
The Ensco Multinational Savings Plan (the “Plan”) is a defined contribution plan available to international expatriate employees (“Eligible Employees”) of Ensco plc and subsidiaries (the “Company” or “Ensco”). The Plan was established on January 1, 2009 to provide a retirement benefit for Eligible Employees through Company profit sharing contributions and matching contributions based on Eligible Employee contributions, and to promote and encourage Eligible Employees to provide additional security and income for their retirement through a systematic savings program. Based upon current law and published interpretations, the Company does not believe that the Plan is subject to any of the provisions of the U.S. Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. The following description of the Plan provides only general information. Participants in the Plan (“Plan Participants”) should refer to the Plan document for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions.
Participation
Eligible Employees of the Company may participate in the Plan upon meeting certain citizenship or residency requirements if they are not employed in their own country of tax residency and are not contributing to, or receiving benefits from, any other employer-sponsored savings plan. Eligible Employees may elect to participate in the employee savings feature of the Plan immediately following employment with the Company.
Eligible Employees automatically participate in the profit sharing feature of the Plan after completing at least 92 days of continuous full-time employment if they are employed at calendar year-end. The profit sharing contributions of the Company are at the discretion of the Board of Directors as disclosed below.
Contributions
Plan Participants may elect to make contributions to the Plan through salary and cash incentive award deferrals (“Savings Contributions”), which may or may not qualify for tax deferral based on each Plan Participant’s local tax requirements. Under the Plan, Savings Contributions are limited to 50% of the participant’s compensation and Plan Participants may elect to increase, decrease or suspend their Savings Contributions within certain limits, as defined in the Plan.
At the discretion of its Board of Directors, the Company may make contributions to the Plan (“Matching Contributions”). Matching Contributions may be made by the Company in the form of a stated dollar amount or in the form of a matching percentage of Savings Contributions. The Company made Matching Contributions to active participant Eligible Employee accounts as follows:
|
| | | |
| Matching Percentage |
| 2012 | | 2011 |
First 5% of eligible compensation | 100% | | 100% |
Total Matching Contributions for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 were $2,734,892 and $602,820, respectively.
At the discretion of its Board of Directors following the close of a fiscal year, the Company may also make annual profit sharing contributions to the Plan for the benefit of all Plan Participants (“Profit Sharing Contributions”). Annual Profit Sharing Contributions are allocated to Plan Participants based on their proportionate compensation. The 2012 and 2011 Profit Sharing contributions were awarded in cash in March 2013 and March 2012 and totaled $6,223,874 and $1,406,090, respectively. The 2012 and 2011 Profit Sharing Contributions were included in employer contributions in the statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Plan Administration
Assets in the Plan are held in trust by Citco Trustees (Cayman) Limited as original trustee on behalf of, and for the benefit of, Plan Participants. The Board of Directors selected the trustee upon the recommendation of Company management. The trustee has the authority to manage or dispose of Plan assets as if it were the beneficial owner thereof. However, the trustee and the Company have delegated the management of day-to-day investment elections and administration of the Plan to Global Group Services Incorporated, the administrator, and UBS Financial, Inc., the custodian. Global Group Services Incorporated performs all recordkeeping services.
Vesting
A Plan Participant’s Matching Contribution account balance and Profit Sharing Contribution account balance become vested and nonforfeitable upon the completion of years of service with the Company, as follows:
|
| | |
Completed years of service | Vested percentage |
Less than one year | — | % |
One year | 33 | % |
Two years | 67 | % |
Three or more years | 100 | % |
A Plan Participant shall become fully vested in his or her Matching Contribution account balance and Profit Sharing Contribution account balance upon certain events, including death or disability, attaining the age of 65 or a period of service with the Company of at least three years, or a full termination of the Plan. A Plan Participant’s Savings Contribution account balance is fully vested at all times.
The unvested portion of Matching Contribution account balances and Profit Sharing Contribution account balances of terminated Plan Participants are forfeited to the Plan and may be used to pay certain administrative expenses of the Plan or to reduce the amount of future employer contributions. The Plan held forfeiture balances totaling $253,856 and $120,971 included in net assets available for benefits as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The Plan did not use its forfeiture balance to reduce any portion of the Company’s Matching Contributions during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.
Distributions
Distributions of a Plan Participant’s Savings Contribution account and the vested portion of a participant’s Matching Contribution account and Profit Sharing Contribution account generally are made within 60 days of an employee request due to termination of employment. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, all Plan Participants who had elected to withdraw from the Plan had been paid.
Hardship Withdrawals
Should a Plan Participant experience a hardship, he or she may elect to withdraw all or part of his or her vested account balance from the Plan. All cases of hardship must be presented in writing to, and approved by, the Company. The Company may request additional supporting documentation from Plan Participants to substantiate any case of hardship. The Company may, at its discretion, approve all or part of the withdrawal request. Hardship withdrawals are recorded as distributions in the period in which they are paid. Hardship withdrawals totaling $26,003 were paid during the year ended December 31, 2012. No hardship withdrawls were paid during the year ended December 31, 2011.
Investments
The Plan allows participants to direct all contributions among a number of different investment funds held by UBS Financial, Inc., including Ensco plc Class A Ordinary Shares of the Company (the “Ensco Class A Fund”). On May 22, 2012, the Company terminated its American depositary shares ("ADS") facility and its outstanding ADSs were converted into Class A ordinary shares on a one-for-one basis. In connection with the termination of the ADS facility and the conversion to Class A ordinary shares, the Plan was amended by the Company, effective January 1, 2012, to convert outstanding Ensco ADSs to Class A ordinary shares of the Company.
Additionally, the Plan limits the portion of a participant’s aggregate account balance that may be invested in the Ensco Class A Fund to 25 percent. The daily value of each investment unit is determined by dividing the total fair market value of all assets in each fund by the total number of units in that fund. Investment income, including certain administrative fees and net appreciation (depreciation) of the fair value of investments, is allocated to each Plan Participant’s account based on the change in unit value for each investment fund in which the participant has an account balance.
Reclassification
Certain amounts included in employer contributions receivable in the statement of net assets available for benefits in the prior year have been reclassified to employee contributions receivable to conform to the current year presentation.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Method of Accounting
The Plan’s financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.
The Plan’s investments are stated at fair value using quoted market prices. Shares of mutual funds are valued at the net asset value of shares held by the Plan at year-end and there are no redemption restrictions associated with those investments. Purchases and sales of shares in mutual funds and the Ensco Class A Fund are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest is recorded on the accrual basis and dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. See “Note 4 - Fair Value Measurements” for additional information on the fair value measurement of the Plan’s net assets.
The Plan presents in the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits the realized gains and/or losses and the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments, which are calculated based on beginning of the year market values of investments to the date of sale and the purchase price, if purchased during the year, to the end of the year market value.
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires the Plan Sponsor, Ensco, to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related changes in net assets available for benefits, as well as disclosures of gain and loss contingencies at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Distributions
Distributions of benefits to Plan Participants are recorded when paid.

4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Certain provisions of FASB ASC 820-10 establish a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy assigns the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (“Level 1”) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (“Level 3”). Level 2 measurements are inputs that are observable for assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly, other than quoted prices included within Level 1. The following fair value hierarchy table categorizes information regarding the Plan’s net assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2012 and 2011:
|
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) | | Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) | | Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) | | Total |

5. ADMINISTRATIVE FEES
The Plan has no employees. All administrative expenses of the Plan have been paid by the Company. Fees paid by the participants and the Plan for investment management and other related services amounted to approximately $375 and $475 for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
6. PLAN TERMINATION
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan. In the event of Plan termination, participants will become 100% vested in their accounts.
7. TAX STATUS
The Plan is not qualified under Section 401(a) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
In consideration that Plan Participants are not U.S. citizens, permanent residents or otherwise U.S. tax residents at any time they are participating, Plan Participants will not be directly subject to U.S. federal income tax on any dividends paid on stock of a U.S. corporation. However, the Cayman Islands trust that holds the Plan’s assets will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on such dividends at a rate of 30%, withheld at source. The trust will not be entitled to any lower tax treaty rates even if a Plan Participant would have been eligible for such lower treaty rates if he or she held the stock directly. Depending on a Plan Participant’s country of residence, he or she may be entitled to a credit against his or her local income tax (if applicable) for the U.S. federal income tax on dividends received by the trust.
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require plan management to evaluate uncertain tax positions taken by the Plan. The financial statement effects of a tax position are recognized when the position is more-likely-than-not, based on the technical merits, to be sustained upon examination by the relevant tax authority. The plan administrator has analyzed the tax positions taken by the Plan and has concluded that, as of December 31, 2012, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the financial statements. The Plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. The Company believes it is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to 2009.
8. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Class A ordinary shares of the Company held by the Plan in the Ensco Class A Fund as an investment qualify as party-in-interest transactions. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Plan’s investment in the Ensco Class A Fund (previously Ensco ADS fund prior to the termination of the Company's ADS facility and conversion to Class A ordinary shares during 2012) was based on the closing price on such dates of $59.28 per share and $46.92 per share, respectively. Like any investment in publicly traded securities, the Company’s Class A shares are subject to price changes. The high and low prices for the Company’s Class A Fund shares were $61.48 and $41.63 for 2012 and the high and low prices for the Company’s ADSs were $60.31 and $37.39 for 2011. The Company’s Class A shares and ADSs totaled approximately 12% and 16% of the Plan’s net assets as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
9. RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The Plan invests in various investment options that are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investments, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the value of the investments will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect Plan Participants’ account balances and the amounts reported in the statement of net assets available for benefits.
