Exhibit 10.3
PERFORMANCE SHARE PROGRAM
FINAL PAYOUT FOR PERFORMANCE PERIOD IX (PSP IX TAIL)
PERFORMANCE SHARE UNIT
AWARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS
These Performance Share Unit Award Terms and Conditions describe terms and conditions of Performance Share Unit Awards, as part of the ConocoPhillips Performance Share Program (Program), granted under the 2011 Omnibus Stock and Performance Incentive Plan of ConocoPhillips (referred to as the Plan) by ConocoPhillips (Company) to you as an eligible employee (Employee). These Terms and Conditions, together with the Award Summary given to each Employee receiving an Award, form the Award Agreement (the Agreement) relating to the Awards described. Subject to the Plan and this Agreement, the Company grants to the Employee Performance Share Units. Individual awards will be as set forth in the Award Summary given to each Employee to whom an Award is granted. The Award Summary for each Employee is made a part of this Agreement with regard to such Employee.
| AWARD: | Performance Share Unit (PSU) Award granted by the Authorized Party under the provisions of the Plan. The PSUs will be noted in a book entry account created for the Employee. |
| PSU: | A unit evidencing the right to receive either one share of ConocoPhillips Stock, $0.01 par value, or the Fair Market Value thereof under the circumstances described in these Terms and Conditions. |
VOTING RIGHTS: The named owner of the PSUs has no voting rights for the units, but is considered the beneficial owner for all purposes including ownership and control reports such as the annual proxy statement.
DIVIDEND EQUIVALENTS: Dividend equivalent payment, equal to the regular dividend payment as declared by the Board of Directors on an equivalent number of common stock from time to time, will be made to the named owner of the units. Under current U.S. tax law, these payments are taxable as compensation (i.e., ordinary income) in the year distributed.
RETIREMENT PLAN EARNINGS: The issuance of these PSUs does not constitute earnings under any retirement plan sponsored by a ConocoPhillips company. The value of the units at the time restrictions lapse also does not constitute earnings under any retirement plan sponsored by a ConocoPhillips company. Neither the issuance of nor lapsing of restrictions on PSUs will have any impact on any retirement plans or any other compensation plan sponsored by a ConocoPhillips company.
| Effective 2/18/2014 |

| - 1 - |
Exhibit 10.3
TAX INFORMATION: For an Employee subject to U.S. tax laws, this matter is more thoroughly covered in the document entitled “Tax Aspects of Performance Share Units.” However, in general terms, under current U.S. tax law, the value of these units is not considered taxable income until the restrictions lapse.
BENEFICIARY: In the event of the death of the named owner of these units prior to the lapsing of restrictions for other reasons, such restrictions will lapse and shares of unrestricted common stock equal in number to the PSUs will be issued to the beneficiary designated by the named owner of the units.
CHANGE OF CONTROL: Upon a Change of Control, the following shall apply to the PSUs:
| 1. | Each Employee shall immediately become fully vested in such PSUs, and such PSUs shall not thereafter be forfeitable for any reason, except as set forth in the section titled “Detrimental Activities” below. |
| 2. | In the event of vesting of PSUs pursuant to paragraph 1 above, all restrictions and other limitations applicable to the PSUs shall lapse and the PSUs shall be settled in unrestricted Stock or cash at the same times and upon the same events as it would otherwise have been made in accordance with the settlement provisions below. |
RESTRICTIONS: The following restrictions relate to the PSUs:
The PSUs will be held in escrow for the Employee. As provided herein, the Employee will have all rights of economic ownership to such unit including the right to receive dividend equivalents, except that the Employee shall not have the right to sell, transfer, assign, or otherwise dispose of such units until the escrow is terminated (such restrictions being known as the “Transfer Restrictions”).
Unless postponed pursuant to an effective election, as described in the sections titled “Initial Election” and “Subsequent Election” below, the escrow shall end on the earliest of any of the following occurrences, with Transfer Restrictions to lapse and settlement be made as set forth in the section titled “Settlement” below:
| 1. | The Termination of the Employee’s employment as a result of Layoff of the Employee; |
| 2. | The Termination of the Employee’s employment after attainment of age 55 and completion of 5 years of service with the Company or its subsidiaries; |
| 3. | The Termination of the Employee’s employment due to death; |
| 4. | The Termination of the Employee’s employment following Disability of the Employee; |
| 5. | The Termination of the Employee’s employment following a Change of Control; or |
| 6. |
In the absence of an effective election, as described in the sections titled “Initial Election” and “Subsequent Election” below, the Transfer Restrictions shall lapse and the PSUs (including any such that are awarded after the Separation from Service of the Employee) shall be settled in cash on the date that is the later of (a) the end of the escrow period and (b) the earliest of the Employee’s death, February 18, 2019, or six months after the date of the Employee’s Separation from Service for a reason other than death.
| Effective 2/18/2014 |
||||
| - 2 - |
Exhibit 10.3
INITIAL ELECTION: The Employee may elect on an election form delivered to the Plan Administrator at a time set by the Plan Administrator (which shall be on or before December 31, 2010) to have the escrow for the PSUs continue and the Transfer Restrictions applicable to these PSUs continue and settlement in cash postponed and made in either:
| 1. | one lump sum payment settled six months after Separation from Service with the Company and its subsidiaries, or |
| 2. | in a series of annual installments, using a declining balance method, over a period of three, five, ten, or fifteen years after Separation from Service with the Company and its subsidiaries. |
In the absence of such an election, the escrow will end and settlement shall be made in one lump sum payment in cash on February 18, 2019.
SUBSEQUENT ELECTION: The Employee may make an election to change the time or form of payment elected under the Initial Election section above or the payment to be made under the Restrictions section above, but only if the following rules are satisfied:
| 1. | The election to change the time or form of payment may not take effect until at least twelve months after the date on which such election is made; |
| 2. | Payment under such election may not be made earlier than at least five years from the date the payment would have otherwise been made or commenced; |
| 3. | An election may provide for either a lump sum payment or installment payments; |
| 4. | An election to receive payments in installments shall be treated as a single payment for purposes of these rules; |
| 5. | Installment payments may be made only annually, over a period of from one to fifteen years as elected; |
| 6. | The election may not result in an impermissible acceleration of payment prohibited under section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code; |
| 7. | No more than four such elections shall be permitted with respect to the PSUs subject to this Award; and |
| 8. | No payment may be made after the date that is twenty (20) years after the date of the Employee’s Separation from Service. |
If an election under this section becomes effective, the escrow and the Transfer Restrictions applicable to the PSUs shall continue until the time set in the election for the settlement of the PSUs in cash.
SETTLEMENT: Upon termination of the escrow the Company shall, at the time stated above, deliver to each Employee an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the PSUs at the time of the termination of escrow, and the related PSUs shall be canceled. In all cases the Employee will be responsible to pay all required withholding taxes associated with the Award. The Employee must pay any required withholding taxes by having shares equal in value to the applicable withholding taxes withheld by the Company (or such other method as the Company, in its sole discretion, allows). The value of the shares withheld for this purpose shall not exceed the minimum withholding amount required by the applicable laws and regulations.
| Effective 2/18/2014 |
||||
| - 3 - |
Exhibit 10.3
The Fair Market Value of the Award received by the Employee shall be deemed equal to the average of the reported highest and lowest selling prices per share of the Company’s Stock as reported on the composite tape of the New York Stock Exchange (or such other reporting system as shall be selected by the Committee) on the date termination of escrow occurs (or the last preceding date on which the Stock was traded, if no trades occurred on the applicable date).
FORFEITURE: An Employee’s right, title, and interest in Performance Share Units awarded under the PSP or derived from such Performance Share Units, or the ownership thereof, shall be forfeited if the Employee terminates employment prior to termination of the escrow period; provided, however, any transfer between the Company and any Subsidiary, or between Subsidiaries at the request of the Company or such Subsidiaries, shall not result in forfeiture.
DETRIMENTAL ACTIVITIES: If the Authorized Party determines that, subsequent to the grant of any Award but prior to any Change of Control, the Employee has engaged or is engaging in any activity which, in the sole judgment of the Authorized Party, is or may be detrimental to the Company or a subsidiary, the Authorized Party may cancel all or part of the PSUs held in escrow pursuant to the Award granted to that Employee. Upon any Change of Control, the Authorized Party may cancel all or part of the PSUs held in escrow pursuant to the Award granted to that Employee only upon a determination by the Authorized Party that the Employee has given the Company Cause for such cancellation.
If the Authorized Party, in its or his sole discretion, determines that the lapsing of restrictions on PSUs held in escrow pursuant to any Award has the possibility of violating any law, regulation, or decree pertaining to the Company, any of its subsidiaries, or the Employee, the Authorized Party may freeze or suspend the Employee’s right to settlement or payout of the Award until such time as the lapse of restrictions would no longer, in the sole discretion of the Authorized Party, have the possibility of violating such law, regulation, or decree.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Award is subject to forfeiture or recoupment, in whole or in part, under applicable law, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the Dodd-Frank Act.
RECAPITALIZATION: Upon any change in the outstanding stock of the Company by reason of any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reclassification, or other similar change, the Committee shall make corresponding adjustments to the PSUs.
