Exhibit 10.1

SEVERANCE PROTECTION AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) made as of the 7th day of August 2013 by and between Murphy Oil Corporation, a Delaware corporation, and its Successors and Assigns (collectively, the “Company”) and Roger W. Jenkins (“Executive”). Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings as set forth in Section 15.

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company, acting through its Executive Compensation Committee (the “Committee”), recognizes that the possibility of a Change in Control exists and that the threat or the occurrence of a Change in Control and its inherent uncertainties can result in significant distractions of its key management personnel;

WHEREAS, the Committee has determined that it is essential and in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders to retain the services of Executive in the event of a threat or occurrence of a Change in Control and to ensure Executive’s continued dedication and efforts in such event; and

WHEREAS, in order to induce Executive to remain in the employ of the Company, particularly in the event of a threat or occurrence of a Change in Control, the Company desires to enter into this Agreement with Executive to provide Executive with certain benefits in the event Executive’s employment is terminated as a result of, or in connection with, a Change in Control.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the respective agreements of the parties contained herein, it is agreed as follows:

1. Term of Agreement; Consent. The term of this Agreement (the “Term”) shall commence as of the date of this Agreement and shall continue in effect until December 31, 2018; provided, however, that the Term shall automatically be extended for additional successive one year periods unless either the Company or Executive provides written notice to the other at least 90 days prior to the end of the Term as then in effect that the Term shall not be so extended. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if a Change in Control occurs during the Term, the Term shall remain in effect until the date that is 24 months after the occurrence of a Change in Control and (ii) this Agreement shall expire and be of no further force and effect in the event of any termination of Executive’s employment that occurs prior to a Change in Control.

2. Termination of Employment.

2.1 Amount of Compensation and Benefits. If, during the Term, Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated within 24 months following a Change in Control, Executive shall be entitled to the following compensation and benefits:

(a) If such termination of Executive’s employment is (1) by the Company for Cause or Disability, (2) by reason of Executive’s death, or (3) by Executive for other than Good Reason, the Company shall pay Executive the Accrued Compensation.

(b) If such termination of Executive’s employment is for any reason other than as specified in Section 2.1(a), Executive shall be entitled to the following payments and benefits:

(i) the Company shall pay Executive the Accrued Compensation;

(ii) the Company shall pay Executive as severance pay an amount in cash equal to three times the sum of (A) the Base Salary and (B) the Bonus Amount; and

(iii) Any stock options or other equity-based awards including, without limitation, restricted stock unit awards and stock appreciation rights held by Executive that are outstanding on the Termination Date (collectively, “Company Equity Awards”) and any stock options or other equity-based awards into which the Company Equity Awards are converted, or stock options or other equity-based awards granted in substitution for the Company Equity Awards, shall on the Termination Date become fully vested, exercisable and payable, as applicable; provided, however, that all performance based restricted stock unit or similar awards shall be paid out at target or 100% performance, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no stock option or other equity-based award shall be exercisable after the specified maximum term of the stock option or other equity-based award, as set forth in the applicable Company equity-based compensation plan or award agreement.

(iv) For the 36-month period immediately following the Termination Date, the Company shall arrange to provide Executive and Executive’s dependents life, accident, and health insurance benefits substantially similar to those provided to Executive and Executive’s dependents immediately prior to the Termination Date or, if more favorable to Executive, those provided to Executive and Executive’s dependents immediately prior to the first occurrence of an event or circumstance constituting Good Reason, at no greater cost to Executive than the cost to Executive immediately prior to such date or occurrence; provided, however, if providing such benefits could subject the Company, Executive or any applicable Company plan to any excise tax for failure to comply with any law applicable to group health plans which becomes effective after the date hereof, the Company and Executive shall in good faith renegotiate this Section 2.1(b)(iv) to achieve a result that preserves as closely as possible the parties’ intended after-tax economic positions under this Section 2.1(b)(iv).

Ex. 10.1-2

(c) If at the time of Executive’s Separation from Service, Executive is a Specified Employee, any and all amounts payable under this Section 2 in connection with such Separation from Service that constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”), as determined by the Company in its sole discretion, and that would (but for this sentence) be payable within six (6) months following such Separation from Service, shall instead be paid on the date that follows the date of such Separation from Service by six months. For purposes of the preceding sentence, “Separation from Service” shall be determined in a manner consistent with subsection (a)(2)(A)(i) of Section 409A and the term “Specified Employee” shall mean an individual determined by the Company to be a Specified Employee as defined in subsection (a)(2)(B)(i) of Section 409A.In the event of any delay in payments under this Section 2.1(c), the deferred amount shall bear interest at the 10 year Treasury rate in effect on the Termination Date until paid.

(d) The amounts provided for in Sections 2.1(a) and 2.1(b)(i), (ii), [and (v)] (the “Severance Amounts”) shall be paid in a single lump sum cash payment, subject to Executive’s execution and delivery of a timely (but in no event later than 55 days after the date of the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company) and effective release of claims, in a mutually agreeable form (the “Release of Claims”), provided that if the aforementioned 55-day period begins in one taxable year and ends in the following taxable year, payment of the Severance Amounts shall not commence or occur until the following taxable year. Any such Release of Claims shall preserve all of Executive’s (i) vested rights, if any and to the extent applicable, under (x) the Company’s equity-based compensation plans or award agreements and (y) the Company’s other employee benefit plans and (ii) rights, to the extent applicable, under the Company’s director and officer indemnification arrangements. If Executive refuses to execute and deliver the Release of Claims, or if Executive revokes the Release of Claims as provided therein, Executive shall not receive the Severance Amounts or any other payment or benefit to which Executive is not otherwise entitled.

(e) Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in this Agreement by seeking other employment or otherwise and no such payment shall be offset or reduced by the amount of any compensation or benefits provided to Executive in any subsequent employment.

(f) (i) In order to ensure that, following a Change in Control, sufficient assets are available to satisfy the Company’s obligations to Executive and Executive’s beneficiaries under the SERP, the Company may establish a grantor or “Rabbi” trust with an independent reputable financial institution as trustee, to which the Company may, in its discretion, contribute cash or other property to provide for the payment of benefits to Executive and Executive’s beneficiaries under the SERP (the “Trust”). The Trust shall comply in all material respects with the model grantor trust set forth in Rev. Proc. 92-64, 1992-2C.B422.

Ex. 10.1-3

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no later than 60 days prior to a Change in Control, the Company shall (x) establish a Trust if one has not been previously established and (y) transfer to the Trust such assets as the Company determines in good faith are at least equal to, on a present value basis, the Company’s liabilities to Executive and Executive’s beneficiaries under the SERP (the “SERP Liabilities”) determined as of the date 24 months after the date of the Change in Control. The Company shall, from time to time therefore make additional contributions to the Trust such that the assets therein are at all times at least equal to the then SERP Liabilities.

(iii) The provisions of the SERP shall determine the rights of Executive and Executive’s beneficiaries to receive distributions from the Trust in respect of benefits otherwise payable to Executive or Executive’s beneficiaries under the SERP, and any such distribution shall reduce the Company’s obligations under the SERP. The provisions of the Trust shall govern the rights of the Company, Executive and the creditors of the Company to the assets transferred to the Trust. On and after a Change in Control, the Trust may not be (x) amended in any way adverse to Executive or Executive’s beneficiaries, and (y) terminated or revoked unless and until all SERP Liabilities have been paid or otherwise distributed to Executive and Executive’s beneficiaries, as applicable.

(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the payments otherwise due hereunder may be limited to the extent provided in Section 4 hereof.

2.2. Coordination with other Compensation and Benefits.

(a) The severance pay and benefits provided for in this Section 2 following a Change in Control shall be in lieu of any other severance or termination pay to which Executive may be entitled following a Change in Control under any other Company plan, program, practice, arrangement or agreement providing severance benefits.

(b) Executive’s entitlement to any other compensation or benefits following a Change of Control shall be determined in accordance with the Company’s employee benefit plans and other applicable plans, programs, practices, arrangements or agreements then in effect. In particular, if Executive is eligible to retire on his Termination Date, any termination of Executive’s employment pursuant to this Agreement shall not prevent his termination from being classified as a “retirement” for purposes of the Company’s retirement plan, the SERP or any of its equity compensation plans.

Ex. 10.1-4

2.3. Relocation Benefits. In the event of termination of Executive’s employment other than as specified in Section 2.1(a), the Company shall reimburse Executive for reasonable documented home finding and moving expenses from El Dorado, Arkansas to Houston, Texas (or another city that is not materially further from El Dorado, Arkansas). The home finding expenses to be reimbursed by the Company are the Company’s normal mileage reimbursement for motor vehicle travel or 1 roundtrip coach airfare ticket for Executive and Executive’s spouse, a meal allowance of up to $35 per day per adult and up to 5 days reasonable lodging while finding a home. Moving expenses shall include the cost of packing, loading, transporting, unloading and unpacking normal household goods and personal effects. By way of example, whether items are considered normal household goods or personal effects shall be determined by reference to Item XI.A.1. of the Company’s Domestic Relocation Policy 05-01-03. Executive shall present appropriate documentation to the Company in support of any reimbursement request hereunder.

3. Notice of Termination. Following a Change in Control, any purported termination of Executive’s employment by the Company shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to Executive. For purposes of this Agreement, no such purported termination shall be effective without such Notice of Termination.

4. Contingent Cutback.

(a) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent that the payments and benefits provided under this Agreement and benefits provided to, or for the benefit of, Executive under any other Company plan or agreement (such payments or benefits are collectively referred to as the “Payments”) would be subject to the excise tax (the “Excise Tax”) imposed under Section 4999 of the Code, the Payments shall be reduced (but not below zero) so that the value of all Payments equals 2.99 times Executive’s “base amount,” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code and the applicable Treasury Regulations thereunder (the “Safe Harbor Amount”) minus $1,000.00, but only if, by reason of such reduction (the “Required Reduction”), the Net After-Tax Benefit if such Required Reduction were made exceeds the Net After-Tax Benefit if such Required Reduction were not made. The “Net After-Tax Benefit” is defined as the value of the Payments net of all taxes imposed under Sections 1 and 4999 of the Code and under applicable state and local laws, determined by applying the highest marginal rate under Section 1 of the Code and under applicable state and local laws which applies to Executive’s taxable income for the immediately preceding taxable year, or such rate(s) as Executive certifies as likely to apply in the relevant tax year(s).

(b) If a reduction is required pursuant to Section 4(a), unless Executive shall have given prior written notice specifying a different order to the Company to effectuate the Required Reduction, the Company shall reduce or eliminate the Payments by first reducing or eliminating those payments or benefits which are not payable in cash and then by reducing or eliminating cash payments, in each case in reverse order beginning with payments or benefits which are to be paid the farthest in time from the date of the Determination. Any notice given by Executive pursuant to the preceding sentence shall take precedence over the provisions of any other plan, program, practice, arrangement or agreement governing Executive’s rights and entitlements to any benefits or compensation.

Ex. 10.1-5

(c) An initial determination as to whether the Required Reduction shall take place pursuant to this Agreement and the calculation of such Required Reduction shall be made at the Company’s expense by an accounting firm selected by the Company which is designated as one of the five largest accounting firms in the United States (the “Accounting Firm”). The Accounting Firm shall provide its determination (the “Determination”) together with detailed supporting calculations and documentation to the Company and Executive within 10 days of the Termination Date, or such other time as requested by the Company and, if the Accounting Firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable by Executive with respect to a Payment or Payments, it shall furnish to the Executive an opinion reasonably acceptable to Executive that no Excise Tax will be imposed with respect to any such Payment or Payments. Within ten days of the delivery of the Determination to Executive, Executive shall have the right to dispute the Determination (the “Dispute”). If there is no Dispute, the Determination shall be binding, final and conclusive upon the Company and Executive subject to the application of Section 4(d) below.

(d) As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Sections 4999 and 280G of the Code, it is possible that the Payments to be made to, or provided for the benefit of, Executive either have been made or will not be made by the Company which, in either case, will be inconsistent with the limitations provided in Section 4(a) (hereinafter referred to as an “Excess Payment” or “Underpayment”, respectively). If it is established, pursuant to a final determination of a court or an Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) proceeding which has been finally and conclusively resolved, that an Excess Payment has been made, such Excess Payment shall be deemed for all purposes to be a loan to Executive made on the date Executive received the Excess Payment and Executive shall repay the Excess Payment to the Company on demand (but not less than ten days after written notice is received by Executive) together with interest on the Excess Payment at the applicable “federal short term rate” prescribed pursuant to Code Section 1274(d)(1)(C)(i) of the Code (hereinafter the “Applicable Federal Rate”) from the date of Executive’s receipt of such Excess Payment until the date of such repayment. In the event that it is determined (i) by the Accounting Firm or the Company (which shall include the position taken by the Company, or together with its consolidated group, on its federal income tax return), (ii) pursuant to a determination by a court or the IRS, or (iii) upon the resolution to Executive’s satisfaction of the Dispute, that an Underpayment has occurred, the Company shall pay an amount equal to the Underpayment to Executive within ten days of such determination or resolution together with interest on such amount at the Applicable Federal Rate from the date such amount would have been paid to Executive until the date of payment.
