Stock or the shares represented by the Restricted Stock units under a Long-Term
Incentive Plan shall be the Fair Market Value defined in the agreement pertaining
to the Award on the Settlement Date of the Award (or if such agreement does not

The market value of the underlying Restricted Stock or the shares
represented by the Restricted Stock Units awarded under a Long Term

after January 1, 2003, under an Omnibus Securities Plan (with regard to
awards made on or after January 1, 2003), and for the Special Stock
Awards issued on October 22, 2002, shall be the monthly average Fair
Market Value of the Stock during the calendar month preceding the month
in which the restrictions lapse or shares are to be delivered as applicable.
The monthly average Fair Market Value of the Stock is the average of the
daily Fair Market Value of the Stock for each trading day of the month.
(2)
For Awards made prior to those times, the market value of the underlying
Restricted Stock or the shares represented by the Restricted Stock Units,
as applicable, shall be based on the higher of (i) the average of the high
and low selling prices of the Stock on the date the restrictions lapse or the
last trading day before the day the restrictions lapse if such date is not a
trading day or (ii) the average of the high three monthly Fair Market
Values of the Stock during the twelve calendar months preceding the
month in which the restrictions lapse. The monthly Fair Market Value of
the Stock is the average of the daily Fair Market Value of the Stock for
each trading day of the month. The daily Fair Market Value of the Stock
shall be deemed equal to the average of the high and low selling prices of
the Stock on the New York Stock Exchange.
(b)
Designation of Investments. The amount in each Deferred Compensation
Account of a Participant shall be deemed to have been invested and reinvested
from time to time, in such “eligible securities” as the Participant shall designate.
Prior to or in the absence of a Participant’s designation, the Company shall
designate an “eligible security” in which the Participant’s Deferred Compensation
Account shall be deemed to have been invested until designation instructions are
received from the Participant. Eligible securities are those securities designated
by the Chief Financial Officer of ConocoPhillips, or his successor. The Chief
Financial Officer of ConocoPhillips may include as eligible securities, stocks
listed on a national securities exchange, and bonds, notes, or debentures,
corporate or governmental, either listed on a national securities exchange or for
which price quotations are published in The Wall Street Journal, and shares issued
11
by investment companies commonly known as “mutual funds.” The Deferred
Compensation Accounts of a Participant will be adjusted to reflect the deemed
gains, losses, earnings, or expenses as though the amount deferred was actually
invested and reinvested in the eligible securities for each Deferred Compensation
Account of the Participant.
the Company (or any trust maintained for this purpose) actually purchases or sells
such securities in the quantities and at the times the securities are deemed to be
purchased or sold for a Deferred Compensation Account of a Participant, the
Account shall be adjusted accordingly to reflect the price actually paid or received
by the Company for such securities after adjustment for all transaction expenses
incurred (including without limitation brokerage fees and stock transfer taxes).
the Deferred Compensation Account shall be charged with a dollar amount equal
to the quantity and kind of securities deemed to have been purchased multiplied
by the fair market value of such security on the date of reference and shall be
credited with the quantity and kind of securities so deemed to have been
purchased. In the case of any deemed sale not actually made by the Company, the
account shall be charged with the quantity and kind of securities deemed to have
been sold and shall be credited with a dollar amount equal to the quantity and
kind of securities deemed to have been sold multiplied by the fair market value of
such security on the date of reference. As used in this paragraph “fair market
value” means in the case of a listed security the closing price on the date of
reference, or if there were no sales on such date, then the closing price on the
nearest preceding day on which there were such sales, and in the case of an
unlisted security the mean between the bid and asked prices on the date of
reference, or if no such prices are available for such date, then the mean between
the bid and asked prices to the nearest preceding day for which such prices are
available.
(c)
Payments. A Participant’s Deferred Compensation Account shall be debited with
respect to payments made from the account pursuant to this Plan as of the date
such payments are made from the account. Payments shall be made on the dates
12
specified in the elections of the Participant; provided, however, that the
Participant shall have no right to complain or make a claim about the date of a
payment if such payment is made no earlier than 30 days prior to the specified
date and no later than the end of the calendar year in which such specified date
falls (or, if later, by the 15
th
specified date).
as determined in the sole discretion of the Plan Administrator, the Plan
Administrator shall have the power to cause the payment due such person to be
made to such person’s guardian or other legal representative for the person’s
benefit, and such payment shall constitute a full release and discharge of the
Company, all members of the Controlled Group, the Plan Administrator, and any
fiduciary of the Plan.
(d)
Statements. At least one time per year the Plan Administrator (or a third party
acting for the Plan Administrator) will furnish each Participant a written statement
setting forth the current balance in the Participant’s Deferred Compensation
Accounts, the amounts credited or debited to such account since the last statement
and the payment schedule of deferred Awards, and deemed gains, losses,
earnings, or expenses accrued thereon as provided by the deferred payment option
selected by the Participant. This provision shall be deemed satisfied if the Plan
Administrator (or a third party acting for the Plan Administrator) makes such
information available through electronic means, such as a web site, and informs
affected Participants of the availability of the information and the manner of
accessing it.
Section 5. Payments from Deferred Compensation Accounts.
(a)
Election of Method of Payment. At the time a Potential Participant submits an
election to defer all or any part of an Award under an Incentive Compensation
Plan as provided in Section 3(a) above or to reduce any part of salary as provided

(5)
The election may not result in an impermissible acceleration of payment
prohibited under Code section 409A;
(6)
No more than three (3) such elections shall be permitted with respect to
each Deferred Compensation Account of a Participant; and
(7)
For changes made after December 31, 2019, no first payment may be
scheduled to commence after the 100
th
(e)
Effect of Taxation. If a portion of a Participant’s Benefits under the Plan (and
gains, losses, earnings, or expenses thereon) is includible in income under Code
section 409A, such portion shall be distributed immediately to the Participant.
(f)
Installment Amount. The amount of each installment shall be determined by
dividing the balance in the Participant’s Deferred Compensation Account as of
the date the installment is to be paid, by the number of installments remaining to
be paid (inclusive of the current installment).
(g)
Death of Participant. Upon the death of a Participant, the Participant’s
Beneficiary or Beneficiaries determined in accordance with Section 8., shall
receive payments in accordance with the payment option selected by the
16
Participant or, if no payment option was properly and timely selected by the
Participant with regard to a Deferred Compensation Account, upon the death of
the Participant.
Section 6. Special Provisions for Former ARCO Alaska Employees.
Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary, in order to comply with the terms of the
Master Purchase and Sale Agreement (“Sale Agreement”) by which the Company
acquired certain Alaskan assets of Atlantic Richfield Company (“ARCO”), a Participant
who was eligible to participate in the ARCO employee benefit plans immediately prior to
becoming an Employee and who was not employed by ARCO Marine, Inc. (a “former
ARCO Alaska employee”) and who was classified as a grade 7 or 8 under ARCO’s job
classification system and was eligible under ARCO’s Executive Deferral Plan to
voluntarily reduce salary and defer the amount of the voluntary salary reduction and who
was classified as a grade 31 or below at that time under Phillips Petroleum Company’s
job classification system may, in a manner prescribed by the Plan Administrator, make an
election to voluntarily reduce salary and defer the amount of the voluntary salary
reduction for salary received for 2005 and receive a salary deferral credit under this Plan;
provided, that all of the Plan provisions (other than eligibility to participate) shall apply
to such an election.
Section 7. Schedule A Employees.
Notwithstanding any earlier election or indication of preference to participate in
voluntary salary reductions to be deferred into the Plan in 2005 or deferrals into the Plan
in 2005 of Awards under an Incentive Compensation Plan, Schedule A Employees shall
have their participation in the Plan for 2005 revoked as to the salary reductions or
Incentive Compensation Plan Award or both, as indicated on Schedule A to this Plan.
Any such deferrals made in 2005 for such Schedule A Employees shall be returned to
them (together with any gains, losses, earnings, or expenses thereon) on or before
December 31, 2005.
17
Section 8. Beneficiary Designation.
A Participant may designate a Beneficiary or Beneficiaries to receive the entire balance
of the Participant’s Deferred Compensation Account by giving signed written notice of
such designation to the Plan Administrator upon forms supplied by and delivered to the
Plan Administrator and may revoke such designations in writing; provided, that writing
and signing may be done by any electronic means approved by the Plan Administrator.
The Participant may from time to time change or cancel any previous beneficiary
designation in the same manner. The last beneficiary designation received by the Plan
Administrator shall be controlling over any prior designation and over any testamentary
or other disposition. After acceptance by the Plan Administrator of such written
designation, it shall take effect as of the date on which it was signed by the Participant,
whether the Participant is living at the time of such receipt, but without prejudice to the
Company or any member of the Controlled Group or the Plan Administrator or their
respective employees and agents on account of any payment made under this Plan before
receipt of such designation. If no designation of a Beneficiary is on file with the Plan
Administrator at the time of the death of the Participant or such designation is not
effective for any reason as determined by the Plan Administrator, then, for purposes of
this Plan, “Beneficiary” shall mean, and such Benefits shall be paid to, (i) the
Participant's surviving spouse as of the Participant's date of death, or (ii) if there is no
surviving spouse as of the Participant's date of death, the Participant’s estate.
Section 9. Acceleration of Payment of Benefits.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, except as provided in
Section 18(g) and below, in no event shall this Plan permit the acceleration of the time or
schedule of any payment or distribution under this Plan, except that the Plan
Administrator may accelerate a payment or distribution under this Plan to comply with a
certificate of divestiture, as provided in section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(iii) of the Treasury
regulations. Moreover, if a portion of a Participant's Benefit (and earnings, gains, and
losses thereon) is includible in income under Code section 409A, then such portion shall
18
be distributed immediately to the Participant in accordance with section 1.409A-
3(j)(4)(vii) of the Treasury regulations.
Section 10. Nonassignability.
The interest of a Participant or his Beneficiary or Beneficiaries hereunder may not be
sold, transferred, assigned, or encumbered in any manner, either voluntarily or
involuntarily, and any attempt so to anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge,
encumber, or charge the same shall be null and void; neither shall the Benefits hereunder
be liable for or subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements, or torts of any
person to whom such Benefits or funds are payable, nor shall they be an asset in
bankruptcy or subject to garnishment, attachment, or other legal or equitable proceedings.
Section 11. Administration.
(a)
The Plan shall be administered by the Plan Administrator. The Plan
Administrator may delegate to employees of the Company or any member of the
Controlled Group the authority to execute and deliver such instruments and
documents, to do all such acts and things, and to take such other steps deemed
necessary, advisable, or convenient for the effective administration of the Plan in
accordance with its terms and purpose, except that the Plan Administrator may
not delegate any discretionary authority with respect to substantive decisions or
functions regarding the Plan or Benefits under the Plan. The Plan Administrator
may designate a third party to provide services that may include record keeping,
Participant accounting, Participant communication, payment of installments to the
Participant, tax reporting, and any other services specified in an agreement with
such third party. The Plan Administrator may adopt such rules, regulations, and
forms as deemed desirable for administration of the Plan and shall have the
discretionary authority to allocate responsibilities under the Plan to such other
persons as may be designated. The Plan Administrator shall have absolute
discretion in carrying out its responsibilities, and all interpretations, findings of
fact and resolutions described herein which are made by the Plan Administrator
19
shall be binding, final and conclusive on all parties.
(b)
The Plan Administrator and his or her delegates shall serve without bond and
without compensation for services under this Plan. All expenses of the Plan
Administrator and his or her delegates for services under this Plan shall be paid by
the Company. None of the Plan Administrator or his or her delegates shall be
liable for any act or omission on his or her own part excepting his or her own
willful misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any such
decision or action taken by the Plan Administrator or his or her delegates in
reliance upon any information supplied by an officer of the Company, the
Company's legal counsel, or the Company's independent accountants in
connection with the administration of this Plan shall be deemed to have been
taken in good faith.
Section 11.1 Claim for Benefits.
(a)
Any claim for benefits hereunder shall be presented in writing to the Plan
Administrator for consideration, grant, or denial. Claimants will be notified in
writing of approved claims, which will be processed as claimed. A claim is
considered approved only if its approval is communicated in writing to a
claimant.
(b)
In the case of a denial of a claim respecting benefits paid or payable with respect
to a Participant, a written notice will be furnished to the claimant within ninety
(90) days of the date on which the claim is received by the Plan Administrator. If
special circumstances (such as for a hearing) require a longer period, the claimant
will be notified in writing, prior to the expiration of the ninety (90)-day period, of
the reasons for an extension of time; provided, however, that no extensions will
be permitted beyond ninety (90) days after the expiration of the initial ninety (90)-
day period. A denial or partial denial of a claim will be dated and signed by the
Plan Administrator and will clearly set forth:
(1)
the specific reason or reasons for the denial;
(2)
specific reference to pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial is
based;
20
(3)
a description of any additional material or information necessary for the
claimant to perfect the claim and an explanation of why such material or
information is necessary; and
(4)
an explanation of the procedure for review of the denied or partially
denied claim set forth below, including the claimant’s right to bring a civil
action under ERISA section 502(a) following an adverse benefit
determination on review.
(c)
Upon denial of a claim, in whole or in part, a claimant or his duly authorized
representative will have the right to submit a written request to the Trustee for a
full and fair review of the denied claim by filing a written notice of appeal with
the Trustee within sixty (60) days of the receipt by the claimant of written notice
of the denial of the claim. A claimant or the claimant’s authorized representative
will have, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all
documents, records, and other information relevant to the claimant’s claim for
benefits and may submit issues and comments in writing. The review will take
into account all comments, documents, records, and other information submitted
by the claimant relating to the claim, without regard to whether such information
was submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination. If the claimant
fails to file a request for review within sixty (60) days of the denial notification,
the claim will be deemed abandoned and the claimant precluded from reasserting
it. If the claimant does file a request for review, his request must include a
description of the issues and evidence he deems relevant. Failure to raise issues
or present evidence on review will preclude those issues or evidence from being
presented in any subsequent proceeding or judicial review of the claim.
(d)
The Trustee will provide a prompt written decision on review. If the claim is
denied on review, the decision shall set forth:
(1)
the specific reason or reasons for the adverse determination;
(2)
specific reference to pertinent Plan provisions on which the adverse
determination is based;
(3)
a statement that the claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of
charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records, and
other information relevant to the claimant’s claim for benefits; and
21
(4)
a statement describing any voluntary appeal procedures offered by the
Plan and the claimant’s right to obtain the information about such
procedures, as well as a statement of the claimant’s right to bring an action
under ERISA section 502(a).
(e)
A decision will be rendered no more than sixty (60) days after the Trustee’s
receipt of the request for review, except that such period may be extended for an
additional sixty (60) days if the Trustee determines that special circumstances
(such as for a hearing) require such extension. If an extension of time is required,
written notice of the extension will be furnished to the claimant before the end of
the initial sixty (60)-day period.
(f)
To the extent permitted by law, decisions reached under the claims procedures set
forth in this Section shall be final and binding on all parties. No legal action for
benefits under the Plan shall be brought unless and until the claimant has
exhausted his remedies under this Section. In any such legal action, the claimant
may only present evidence and theories which the claimant presented during the
claims procedure. Any claims which the claimant does not in good faith pursue
through the review stage of the procedure shall be treated as having been
irrevocably waived. Judicial review of a claimant’s denied claim shall be limited
to a determination of whether the denial was an abuse of discretion based on the
evidence and theories the claimant presented during the claims procedure.
(g)
Any payment to a Participant or Beneficiary, all in accordance with the provisions
of this Plan, shall to the extent thereof be in full satisfaction of all claims
hereunder against the Plan Administrator, the Company and all Participating
Subsidiaries, any of which may require such Participant or Beneficiary as a
condition to such payment to execute a receipt and release therefor in such form
as shall be determined by the Plan Administrator, the Company or a Participating
Subsidiary. If a receipt and release is required and the Participant or Beneficiary
(as applicable) does not provide such receipt and release in a timely enough
manner to permit a timely distribution in accordance with the general timing of
distribution provisions in this Plan, the payment of any affected distribution(s)
shall be forfeited.
22
(h)
Benefits under this Plan will be paid only if the Plan Administrator decides in its
discretion that a Participant or Beneficiary is entitled to the Benefits.
Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision of this Plan, a Participant (or
other claimant) must exhaust all administrative remedies set forth in this Section
11.1 or otherwise established by the Plan Administrator before bringing any
action at law or equity. Any claim based on a denial of a claim under this Plan
must be brought no later than the date which is two (2) years after the date of the
final denial of a claim under this Section 11.1. Any claim not brought within such
time shall be waived and forever barred.
Section 12. Rights of Employees and Participants.
Nothing contained in the Plan (or in any other documents related to this Plan or to any
Benefit under the Plan) shall confer upon any Employee or Participant any right to
continue in the employ or other service of the Company or any member of the Controlled
Group or constitute any contract or limit in any way the right of the Company or any
member of the Controlled Group to change such person's compensation or other benefits
or position or to terminate the employment of such person with or without cause.
Section 13. Determination of Recipients of Awards.
The determination of those persons who are entitled to Awards under an Incentive
Compensation Plan and any other such plans shall be governed solely by the terms and
provisions of the applicable plan or program, and the selection of an Employee as a
Potential Participant or the acceptance of an indication of preference to defer an Award
hereunder shall not in any way entitle such Potential Participant to an Award.
Section 14. Awards in Foreign Countries.
The Board or its delegate shall have the authority to adopt such modifications,
procedures, and subplans as may be necessary or desirable to comply with provisions of
the laws of foreign countries in which the Company or Participating Subsidiaries may
23
operate to assure the viability of the Benefits of Participants employed in such countries
and to meet the purpose of this Plan.
Section 15. Amendment and Termination.
The Board reserves the right to amend this Plan from time to time, to terminate this Plan
entirely at any time, and to delegate such authority as the Board deems necessary or
desirable; provided, however, that no amendment may affect the balance in a
Participant’s account on the effective date of the amendment; and, further provided, the
Company shall remain liable for any Benefits accrued under this Plan prior to the date of
amendment or termination.
Section 16. Method of Providing Payments.
(a)
Nonsegregation. Amounts deferred pursuant to this Plan and the crediting of
amounts to a Participant’s Deferred Compensation Accounts shall represent the
Company’s unfunded and unsecured promise to pay compensation in the future.
With respect to said amounts, the relationship of the Company and a Participant
shall be that of debtor and general unsecured creditor. While the Company may
make investments for the purpose of measuring and meeting its obligations under
this Plan such investments shall remain the sole property of the Company subject
to claims of its creditors generally, and shall not be deemed to form or be included
in any part of the Deferred Compensation Accounts.
(b)
Funding. It is the intention of the Company that this Plan shall be unfunded for
federal tax purposes and for purposes of Title I of ERISA. All amounts payable
under this Plan shall be paid solely from the general assets of the Company and
any rights accruing to a Participant under this Plan shall be those of a general
creditor; provided, however, that the Company may establish one or more grantor
trusts to satisfy part or all of the Company's Plan payment obligations so long as
this Plan remains unfunded for purposes of sections 201(2), 301(a)(3), and
401(a)(1) of ERISA.
24
Section 17. Miscellaneous Provisions.
(a)
Except as otherwise provided herein, the Plan shall be binding upon the
Company, its successors and assigns, including but not limited to any corporation
which may acquire all or substantially all of the Company’s assets and business or
with or into which the Company may be consolidated or merged.
(b)
This Plan shall be construed, regulated, and administered in accordance with the
laws of the State of Texas except to the extent that said laws have been preempted
by the laws of the United States. The forum and venue for any suit brought
regarding any claim under this Plan shall be in Harris County, Texas.
(c)
If any provision of this Plan shall be held illegal or invalid for any reason, said
illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining provisions hereof; instead,
each provision shall be fully severable, and this Plan shall be construed and
enforced as if said illegal or invalid provision had never been included herein.
(d)
For purposes of this Plan, electronic communications and signatures shall be
considered to be in writing if made in conformity with procedures which the Plan
Administrator may adopt from time to time.
(e)
The Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, may direct that a payment to be
made to an incompetent or disabled person, whether because of minority or
mental or physical disability, instead be made to the guardian or legal
representative of such person or to the person having custody of such person
(unless prior claim therefor shall have been made by a duly qualified guardian or
other legal representative), without further liability either on the part of the
Company or a Participating Subsidiary or the Plan for the amount of such
payment to the person on whose benefit such payment is made. Any payment
made in accordance with the provisions of this provision shall be a complete
discharge of any liability of the Company, its Subsidiaries, and this Plan with
respect to the Benefits so paid.
(f)
Payment of Plan Benefits may be subject to administrative or other delays that
result in payment to the Participant or his beneficiaries on a date later than the
date specified in this Plan or the Participant's Election Form. Any such payment
delays will comply with Code section 409A of the Code, including without
25
limitation section 1.409A-2(b)(7) of the Treasury regulations. No Participant or
Beneficiary shall be entitled to any additional earnings or interest in respect of
any such payment delays, nor shall any Participant or Beneficiary be provided any
election with respect to the timing of any delayed payment.
(g)
If all or any part of any Participant's or Beneficiary's Benefits hereunder shall
become subject to any estate, inheritance, income, employment or other tax which
the Company shall be required to pay or withhold, the Company shall have the
full power and authority to withhold and pay such tax out of any monies or other
property held for the account of the Participant or Beneficiary whose interests
hereunder are so affected (including, without limitation, by reducing and
offsetting the Participant's or Beneficiary's account balance). Prior to making any
payment, the Company may require such releases or other documents from any
lawful taxing authority as it shall deem necessary or desirable.
(h)
No amount accrued or payable hereunder shall be deemed to be a portion of an
Employee's compensation or earnings for the purpose of any other employee
benefit plan adopted or maintained by the Company, nor shall this Plan be
deemed to amend or modify the provisions of the CPSP.
(i)
It is the intention of the Company that, so long as any of ConocoPhillips ’ equity
securities are registered pursuant to section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act,
this Plan shall be operated in compliance with 16(b) of the Exchange Act and, if
any Plan provision or transaction is found not to comply with section 16(b) of the
Exchange Act, that provision or transaction, as the case may be, shall be deemed
null and void
ab initio
. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the
Company, in its absolute discretion, may bifurcate the Plan so as to restrict, limit
or condition the use of any provision of the Plan to Participants who are officers
and directors subject to section 16(b) of the Exchange Act without so restricting,
limiting, or conditioning the Plan with respect to other Participants.
(j)
This Plan is intended to meet the requirements of Code section 409А, as
applicable, in order to avoid any adverse tax consequences resulting from any
failure to comply with Code section 409А and, as a result, this Plan shall be
operated in a manner consistent with such compliance. Except to the extent
expressly set forth in this Plan, the Participant (and/or the Participant's
26
Beneficiary, as applicable) shall have no right to dictate the taxable year in which
any payment hereunder that is subject to Code section 409А should be paid.
(k)
This Title II replaced Title I of the Plan, which was frozen effective as of
December 31, 2004. The distribution of amounts that were earned and vested
(within the meaning of Code section 409A and official guidance issued
thereunder) under Title I of the Plan prior to January 1, 2005 (and earnings
thereon) are exempt from the requirements of Code section 409A shall be made in
accordance with the terms of the Title I of the Plan.
(l)
At the Effective Time, certain active employees of Phillips 66 and members of its
controlled group ceased to participate in the Plan, and the liabilities, including
liabilities related to benefits grandfathered from Code section 409A (
i.e.
, amounts
deferred and vested prior to January 1, 2005), for these participant's benefits
under the Plan were transferred to the members of the Phillips 66 controlled group
and continued as the Phillips 66 Key Employee Deferred Compensation Plan.
ConocoPhillips distributed its interest in Phillips 66 to its shareholders as of the
Distribution. On and after the Effective Time, the Company, ConocoPhillips,
other members of the Controlled Group (as determined after the Distribution), the
Plan, any directors, officers, or employees of any member of the Controlled
Group (as determined after the Distribution), and any successors thereto, shall
have no further obligation or liability to, or on behalf of, any such participant with
respect to any benefit, amount, or right transferred to or due under the Phillips 66
Key Employee Deferred Compensation Plan.
Stock") held in the Company Stock Fund shall be transferred to a separate
Investment Option under this Plan that is accounted for as if investments were
made in Phillips 66 Stock, although no such actual investments need be made,
with accounting entries being sufficient therefor. Investments in the Phillips 66
Stock fund will be determined as of the Distribution. On and after the
Distribution, a Participant will be allowed to hold or liquidate his or her deemed
investment in Phillips 66 Stock. No additional deemed investments in Phillips 66
Stock will be allowed to be elected.
27
Units of ConocoPhillips shall be converted into Restricted Stock and Restricted
Stock Units of ConocoPhillips and restricted stock and restricted stock units of
Phillips 66 as provided in the Agreement. The amounts to be credited to a
Participant's Deferred Compensation Account under Section 4(a) will be based on
such Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units of ConocoPhillips and restricted
stock and restricted stock units of Phillips 66 after the Distribution.
and which requires valuation of Stock or the common stock of Phillips 66
("Phillips 66 Common Stock"), or of both, from a time on or before the
Distribution and from a time after the Distribution, then the following shall apply,
in order to allow the valuation to take into account the distribution by stock
dividend of one share of Phillips 66 Common Stock for each two shares of Stock
held at the Distribution:
(1)
The value of Stock or of Phillips 66 Common Stock determined as of any
date after the Distribution shall be determined using market information
related to each;
(2)
The value of Stock determined as of any date on or before the Distribution
that does not also require a valuation of Stock as of any date after the
Distribution shall be determined using market information related to Stock
as it traded on or before the Distribution;
(3)
The value of Stock determined as of any date on or before the Distribution
that also requires a valuation of Stock or of Phillips 66 Common Stock as
of any date after the Distribution shall be deemed to be two-thirds of the
value of Stock determined using market information related to Stock as it
traded on or before the Distribution; and
(4)
The value of Phillips 66 Common Stock determined as of any date on or
before the Distribution that also requires a valuation of Stock or of Phillips
66 Common Stock as of any date after the Distribution shall be deemed to
be one-third of the value of Stock determined using market information
related to Stock as it traded on or before the Distribution.
