DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 5 filed by Comet II B.V., a Netherlands corporation (“Comet II”), as successor by merger to Chicago Bridge & Iron Company N.V. (“CB&I”), relates to the Registration Statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-183950), which was declared effective on November 20, 2012 (the “Registration Statement”), of CB&I. The Registration Statement registered 13,011,788 shares of CB&I common stock, par value EUR 0.01 per share, that were issuable pursuant to a Transaction Agreement dated July 30, 2012, whereby a wholly owned subsidiary of CB&I merged with and into The Shaw Group Inc. (“Shaw”), with Shaw being the surviving company in the merger. The transaction agreement and the exchange ratio are more specifically described in the Registration Statement.

On May 10, 2018, McDermott International, Inc. (“McDermott”) and CB&I consummated a series of transactions (the “Combination”) contemplated by, and in accordance with, the Business Combination Agreement dated as of December 18, 2017 to which McDermott, CB&I and certain of their respective subsidiaries are parties, as amended. As a result of the Combination, (1) CB&I merged with and into Comet II, with Comet II continuing as the surviving entity, and (2) Comet II became an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of McDermott. CB&I has terminated all offerings of its securities pursuant to its existing registration statements, including the Registration Statement.

In accordance with an undertaking contained in the Registration Statement to remove by means of a post-effective amendment any securities that remain unsold at the termination of the offering, Comet II, as successor to CB&I, hereby deregisters, and removes from registration, any and all securities originally reserved for issuance and registered under the Registration Statement that remained unsold at the effective time of the Combination. The Registration Statement is hereby amended, as appropriate, to reflect the deregistration of such securities.
