elections as to the deemed investment of amounts newly credited to their Supplemental Thrift Accounts, as well as the deemed investment of amounts previously credited to their Supplemental Thrift Accounts.

Section 5. Payment.
In the absence of an effective election under Section 5.1 or Section 5.2, Benefits that a Participant is eligible to receive under the Ongoing Plan (and earnings, gains, and losses thereon) shall normally be paid in one lump sum payment on the date that is six months after the date of the Participant’s Separation from Service.

Section 5.1 Payment Election by Participant.
A Participant may elect on an Election Form delivered to the Plan Administrator at a time set by the Plan Administrator (which shall be prior to the beginning of the Plan Year) to have the amounts attributable to Benefits under the Ongoing Plan that are credited to his or her Supplemental Thrift Account (and earnings, gains, and losses thereon) with respect to such Plan Year paid to the Participant in either:

Section 5.2 Change in Time or Form of Payment.
A Participant may make an election to change the time or form of payment elected under Section 5.1 or the payment to be made under Section 5, but only if the following rules are satisfied:

(d)An election to receive payments in installments shall be treated as a single payment for purposes of these rules;
(e)The election may not result in an impermissible acceleration of payment prohibited under Code section 409A;
(f)No more than four such elections shall be permitted with respect to Benefits credited to a Participant’s Accounts for a Plan Year; and
(g)No payment may be made after the date that is twenty (20) years after the date of the Participant’s Separation from Service.

Section 5.3 Effect of Taxation.
If a portion of a Participant’s Benefit (and earnings, gains, and losses thereon) is includible in income under Code section 409A, such portion shall be distributed immediately to the Participant.
Section 6. 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 hereunder.
(b)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.
(c)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 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 90-day period, of the reasons for an extension of time; provided, however, that no extensions will be permitted beyond 90 days after the expiration of the initial 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:
-9-
Exhibit 10.36
(1)the specific reason or reasons for the denial;
(2)specific reference to pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial is based;
(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.
(d)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 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 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.
(e)The Trustee will provide a prompt written decision on review. If the claim is denied on review, the decision shall set forth:
-10-
Exhibit 10.36
(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
(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).
(f)A decision will be rendered no more than 60 days after the Trustee’s receipt of the request for review, except that such period may be extended for an additional 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 60-day period.
(g)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.

Exhibit 10.36
Section 7. Rights of Employees and Participants.
Nothing contained in the Plan (or in any other documents related to this Plan or to any Benefit) 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 to terminate the employment of such person with or without cause.

The Board reserves the right to amend or terminate this Plan at any time, and to delegate such authority as the Board deems necessary or desirable; provided that no member of the Board who is also a Participant shall participate in any action which has the actual or potential effect of increasing his or her Benefits hereunder; and further provided, the Company shall remain liable for any Benefits accrued under this Plan prior to the date of amendment or termination.
Section 10. Unfunded Plan.
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 the Plan shall be those of a general creditor; provided, however, that the Company may establish one or more grantor trusts to satisfy part or
-12-

(e)It is the intention of the Company that, so long as any of Phillips 66's equity securities are registered pursuant to Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, this Plan shall be operated in compliance with 16(b) and, if any Plan provision or transaction
-13-
Exhibit 10.36
is found not to comply with Section 16(b), 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) without so restricting, limiting or conditioning the Plan with respect to other Participants.
(f)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any right or interest of a Participant under this Plan, including any benefits previously paid under this Plan, are subject to forfeiture or recoupment, in whole or in part, under applicable law, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and any pertinent Company policies, including the Phillips 66 Clawback Policy. A Participant’s rights or interests under this Plan are also subject to forfeiture or recoupment in the event a Participant’s negligence or misconduct results in materially misstated financial or other data, as determined by the Human Resources and Compensation Committee and the Audit and Finance Committee of the Board.
