PERFORMANCE GOALS

FOR PERFORMANCE UNIT AWARDS GRANTED IN 2014 UNDER

THE BAKER HUGHES INCORPORATED 2002 DIRECTOR & OFFICER

LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN AND

THE BAKER HUGHES INCORPORATED 2002 EMPLOYEE

LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

 

  1. 2014 Performance Unit Program

The Performance Unit Program, a component compensation program established under each of the Baker Hughes Incorporated 2002 Director & Officer Long-Term Incentive Plan and the Baker Hughes Incorporated 2002 Employee Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “PUP” ), provides for cash awards for participants if performance goals are met during the term of the PUP. The performance goals are related to the Company’s achievement as compared to a peer group of companies. Achievement is measured over multiple performance periods from the beginning of 2014 to the end of 2016. Twenty-five percent of the Total Unit Value is determined based upon one year performance relative to certain specified performance criteria during each of 2014, 2015, and 2016. The final twenty-five percent of the Total Unit Value is calculated at the end of 2016 based upon the cumulative performance of the Company over the three-year performance period 2014 through 2016.

 

 

  2. Performance Goals for the Performance Period

For Performance Unit Awards granted by BHI in 2014 under the Plan, the performance goals are based upon the Company’s (1) change in Revenue as compared to the Peer Group, and (2) Return on Capital Employed or ROCE as compared to the Peer Group measured in absolute terms as well as the percentage growth in ROCE as compared to the Peer Group. For each performance goal, if the Company’s performance as compared to the Peer Group is the highest, the Company’s performance rank shall be first.

(a) One Year Performance Periods

Revenue Growth. For the 2014 Performance Period, the 2015 Performance Period and the 2016 Performance Period, the Company’s One Year Interval Percentage Increase in Revenue for its 2014, 2015 and 2016 fiscal years, respectively, shall be compared against the One Year Interval Percentage Increase in Revenue for all members of the Peer Group.

Return on Capital Employed. For the 2014 Performance Period, the 2015 Performance Period and the 2016 Performance Period, the Company’s ROCE for its 2014, 2015 and 2016 fiscal years, respectively, shall be compared against the ROCE for all members of the Peer Group during the applicable Current Period, as an absolute measure. In addition, as a relative measure, for the 2014 Performance Period, the 2015 Performance Period and the 2016 Performance Period, the Company’s One Year Interval Percentage Increase in ROCE for its 2014, 2015 and 2016 fiscal years, respectively, shall be compared against the One Year Interval Percentage Increase in ROCE for all members of the Peer Group.

 

(b) Three-Year Performance Period

Revenue Growth. For the Three-Year Performance Period, the Three-Year Percentage Increase in Revenue of the Company shall be compared against the Three-Year Percentage Increase in Revenue for all members of the Peer Group as of December 31, 2016.

 

2


Return on Capital Employed. For the Three-Year Performance Period, the sum of the ROCE of the Company for the 2014 Performance Period, the 2015 Performance Period and the 2016 Performance Period shall be compared against the sum of the ROCE

for each member of the Peer Group for the 2014 Performance Period, the 2015 Performance Period and the 2016 Performance Period, as an absolute measure. For the relative measure in the Three-Year Performance Period, the Three-Year Percentage Increase in ROCE of the Company shall be compared against the Three-Year Percentage Increase in ROCE for all members of the Peer Group as of December 31, 2016.

 

  3. Payout Percentage Based on Peer Group Ranking

For the Revenue Growth metric and ROCE metrics, the Unit Value earned during an applicable performance period (the 2014 Performance Period, the 2015 Performance Period, the 2016 Performance Period or the Three-Year Performance Period)     for each of the three performance goals is $25.00 times the payout percentage listed in the applicable chart below. The average of the $25.00 Unit Value Amounts earned during a performance period is used to determine the Period Unit Value for the performance period. The payout under each Performance Unit will be based on 12 measures (three Peer Group Ranking results achieved during four discrete performance periods.)

 

2014, 2015, 2016, and Three-Year Performance Period

 

Peer Group Rank in Revenue Growth

   5th     4th     3rd     2nd     1st  

Payout Percentage

     0     45     90     135     200

 

3


The payout percentage for ROCE will be based on a combination of the company’s rank in absolute ROCE as well as the company rank in percentage growth in ROCE.

 

In the example below, for illustrative purposes, Year 1 Revenue growth rank was 5th and 0 percent of $25.00 is $0. ROCE absolute rank was 2nd and the ROCE rank in Growth was 2nd, so the matrix above indicates a payout percentage of 135%, and 135% percent of $25.00 is $33.75. The Period Unit Value based upon the performance in Year 1 is $16.88. For each Performance Unit awarded, the sum of the Period Unit Values for each of the performance periods equals the Total Unit Value.

 

Note that levels of achievement contained in the foregoing example are not forecasts by the Company of its expected levels of achievement. Rather, the levels of achievement for purposes of the illustrative example were selected at random.

If the Peer Group is reduced by merger(s) or otherwise during the term of the Three-Year Performance Period the Committee shall make such adjustments to the Unit Value Amount chart as it deems appropriate in its sole discretion. Such adjustments shall not increase the amounts that would have been payable under the Unit Value Amount chart absent such adjustments.

 

  4. Peer Group

The Peer Group is as follows for the performance periods ending in 2014, 2015, and 2016, and for the Three-Year Performance Period.

  5. General Performance Unit Formula

The Compensation Committee shall determine in writing the extent to which the Performance Goals applicable to the Performance Unit Awards have been satisfied before the Company makes any payments under the Performance Unit Awards.

The Compensation Committee may not increase the Final Performance Unit Award Value for, or otherwise increase the aggregate amount payable to a Participant for the performance period under, a Performance Unit Award Agreement issued by BHI in 2014 under the Baker Hughes Incorporated 2002 Director & Officer Long-Term Incentive Plan or the Baker Hughes Incorporated 2002 Employee Long-Term Incentive Plan.
