INFORMATION
TO BE INCLUDED IN REPORT
On
July
11, 2007, the Board of Directors of Halliburton approved Halliburton entering
into individual indemnification agreements with certain of its
officers.
The
indemnification agreements for officers provide that Halliburton will indemnify
and advance certain expenses to an officer to the fullest extent, and only
to
the extent, permitted by applicable law in effect as of the date of the
agreement and to such greater extent as applicable law may thereafter from
time
to time permit, including the rights provided under the
agreement. Under the agreement, an officer will be indemnified
against certain expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in
settlement actually and reasonably incurred by or on such officer’s behalf in
connection with a proceeding or any claim, issue or matter, if he or she
acted
in good faith and in a manner the officer reasonably believed to be in, or
not
opposed to, the best interests of Halliburton.
The
form
of Indemnification Agreement for officers is attached to this report as Exhibit
10.1
Halliburton’s
practice is to enter into indemnity agreements with its directors upon their
election to Halliburton’s Board of Directors. The form of
