August 30, 2013 — Covington, Louisiana — Hornbeck Offshore Services, Inc. (NYSE: HOS) announced today the commencement, on Wednesday, August 28, 2013, of its offer to exchange any and all of the $450,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 5.000% Series A Senior Notes due 2021 (CUSIPs 440543 AP 1 and U44070 AE 7) (collectively, the “Old Notes”), which were issued in a private placement and sold in accordance with Rule 144A or Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”), for an equal aggregate principal amount of its 5.000% Series B Senior Notes due 2021 (CUSIP 440543 AQ 9) (the “New Notes”). The issuance of the New Notes has been registered under the Act.

The form and terms of the New Notes are substantially the same as the form and terms of the Old Notes issued in March 2013.

The New Notes evidence the same debt as the Old Notes they replace and are issued under and entitled to the benefits of the indenture that governs the Old Notes.

Hornbeck Offshore will accept for exchange any and all original notes validly tendered in principal amounts equal to the minimum denomination of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof and not validly withdrawn before the expiration time of 5:00 p.m., New York City time on September 24, 2013 (the “Expiration Time”), unless extended.  Original notes validly tendered may be withdrawn at any time before the Expiration Time only in accordance with the withdrawal rights set forth in the exchange offer prospectus under the caption “Exchange Offer — Withdrawal of Tenders.”
