Fellow Shareholders:

On behalf of our Board of Directors, management team, and more than 45,000 employees, thank you for your investment in Halliburton.

This strong financial performance demonstrated the earnings power of Halliburton’s execution on its strategy and the commitment of our employees to accomplish our strategic priorities.

We are excited about 2023 and beyond, and we are grateful for the roles that our employees, Board of Directors, and shareholders play in our success. We look forward to the opportunity to deliver profitable international growth, maximize value in North America, increase capital efficiency, develop and deploy digital and automation solutions, and advance cleaner, affordable energy.

2022 Strategic Priorities

As we began 2022, we identified the following focus areas in our 2021 Form 10-K:

2022 Performance Overview (pages 45-46)

Our success throughout 2022 was a direct result of the hard work and dedication of our employees with relentless focus on safety, operational execution, customer collaboration, and service quality performance. We saw the resilience of oil and gas demand throughout 2022 even as central banks raised interest rates to combat inflation. Our exceptional financial performance this year is a clear result of the execution of our strategic priorities in 2022. Here are the highlights for 2022:

Our 2023 Board Nominees (pages 17-29)

Our 2022 Named Executive Officers (page 47)

Our Executive Compensation Program (pages 47-73)

Objectives (page 47)

Our executive compensation program is composed of base salary, a short-term incentive, and long-term incentives and is designed to achieve the following objectives:

How Our Executive Compensation Program Links to Performance (page 48)

Our executive compensation program emphasizes variable pay that aligns compensation with performance and shareholder value. The mix of compensation elements is heavily weighted toward variable, performance-based compensation to ensure our senior executives continue to deliver the reliable execution, strong cash flow, and industry-leading returns that our shareholders expect.

Our Year-round Shareholder Engagement (page 14)

Corporate Governance

Corporate Governance Guidelines and Committee Charters

Our Board has long maintained a formal statement of its responsibilities and guidelines to ensure effective governance in all areas of its responsibilities. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines are available on our website at www.halliburton.com by clicking on the tabs “Investors”, “Company Information”, and then the “Corporate Governance” link. The guidelines are reviewed periodically and revised as appropriate to reflect the dynamic and evolving processes relating to corporate governance, including the operation of the Board.

Our current Board structure and governance practices, as specified in those Guidelines and our By-laws, Code of Business Conduct, and policies and business practices, include the following:

In order for our shareholders to understand how the Board conducts its affairs in all areas of its responsibility, the full text of the charters of our Audit; Compensation; Health, Safety and Environment; and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees and for our Lead Independent Director are also available on our website.

Except to the extent expressly stated otherwise, information contained on or accessible from our website or any other website is not incorporated by reference into and should not be considered part of this proxy statement.

Code of Business Conduct

Our Code of Business Conduct, which applies to all of our Directors and employees and serves as the code of ethics for our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, and other persons performing similar functions, is available on our website. Any waivers to our Code of Business Conduct for our Directors or executive officers can only be made by our Audit Committee. There were no waivers of the Code of Business Conduct in 2022.

Related Persons Transactions Policy

Our Board has adopted a written policy governing related persons transactions as part of the Board’s commitment to good governance and independent oversight. The policy covers transactions involving any of our Directors, executive officers, nominees for Director, greater than 5% shareholders, or any of their immediate family members, among others.

The types of transactions covered by this policy are transactions, arrangements, or relationships, or any series of similar transactions, arrangements, or relationships, including any indebtedness or guarantee of indebtedness, in which (i) we or any of our subsidiaries were or will be a participant, (ii) the aggregate amount involved exceeds $120,000 in any calendar year, and (iii) any related person had, has, or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

Under the policy, we generally only enter into or ratify related persons transactions when the Audit Committee determines such transactions are in our best interests and the best interests of our shareholders. In determining whether to approve or ratify a related persons transaction, the Audit Committee will consider the following factors and other factors it deems appropriate:

The Board of Directors and Standing Committees of Directors

The Board has the following standing Committees: Audit; Compensation; Health, Safety and Environment; and Nominating and Corporate Governance. Each standing Committee is comprised of Directors who, in the business judgment of the Board, are independent, after considering all relevant facts and circumstances, including the independence standards set forth in our Corporate Governance Guidelines.

Our independence standards meet New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, independence requirements. Our independence standards and compliance with those standards are periodically reviewed by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. There were no relevant transactions, arrangements, or relationships not disclosed in this proxy statement that were considered by the Board in making its determination as to the independence of the Directors.

Board Leadership

Our Board believes that it is important to maintain flexibility to determine the appropriate leadership of the Board and whether the roles of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer should be combined or separate. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that the Board consider annually whether it is appropriate for the same individual to fill both of those roles. When making that determination, the Board considers issues such as industry and financial expertise, in-depth knowledge of Halliburton and its business, and succession planning. In 2022, the Board decided that a combined leadership role would continue to best serve the Company and its shareholders. The Board believes that Jeffrey A. Miller, our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, with his industry expertise, financial expertise, and in-depth knowledge of Halliburton and its business, is the correct person to fill both roles. The Board also believes that Mr. Miller is best suited to lead the Board’s discussion and evaluation of the Company’s business, financial, and health, safety, environment, and sustainability strategy and performance. With the exception of Mr. Miller, the Board is composed of independent Directors.

Robert A. Malone is our Lead Independent Director. The Lead Independent Director’s role and responsibilities are set forth in the Lead Independent Director Charter adopted by the Board. These include the following:

	liaises between the independent Directors and the Chairman			participates in shareholder engagement
	approves agendas for Board meetings and ensures the agendas provide opportunities for the Board to provide input on the Company’s business strategy and management’s execution of that strategy			advises management on and approves information sent to the Board and approves schedules for meetings of the Board
	presides over meetings and executive sessions of the independent Directors			authorizes the retention of outside advisors and consultants who report directly to the Board
	leads the Board’s annual evaluation of the Chief Executive Officer			schedules meetings of the independent Directors as appropriate
	participates in efforts to identify and recruit candidates for Board membership

Our Lead Independent Director Charter is available on our website at www.halliburton.com.

Board and Committee Oversight

Environmental, Social, and Governance Oversight

The Halliburton Board of Directors Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee conducts general oversight of ESG matters at Halliburton. However, each Board committee is responsible for different aspects of ESG (as outlined in each committee’s charter). In 2022, the Board increased its ESG oversight by dedicating more time to these matters in committee and full Board meetings, and in engagements with Halliburton’s shareholders.

By regularly engaging with shareholders and other outside experts, the Board can more effectively prioritize relevant sustainability matters in the Company’s overall corporate strategy. Shareholders have endorsed this oversight structure and other governance enhancements.

The following chart details the primary oversight responsibilities held by each of the Halliburton Board’s committees:

The Board believes that it has a strong governance structure in place to ensure independent oversight on behalf of all shareholders. All standing Committees of the Board are comprised solely of independent Directors. Below is a discussion of some of these areas of oversight.

Political and Lobbying Spending

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for oversight of political expenditures, payments to trade associations, and lobbying activity. In 2022, we published a comprehensive report (Halliburton Policies for Political Engagement) on our annual political activity. The report is available on our website at www.halliburton.com.

Notable highlights from this report include:

In 2022, Halliburton scored a 93 on the CPA-Zicklin Index with a raw score of 65 points. Halliburton’s score is high enough (90 or above) that the Company is now classified as a “Trendsetter” which, in CPA-Zicklin Index terms, indicates robust Company disclosure and oversight.

Enterprise Risk Management

We have implemented an Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) program to identify and analyze enterprise-level risks and their potential impact on our business. The objectives of our ERM program are to:

Our internal processes to identify and manage risks include our Code of Business Conduct; extensive policies and business practices; financial controls; Internal Assurance Services audits of our internal controls and health, safety, environment, and sustainability; the activities of the Ethics and Compliance group of the Law Department; and our ERM program.

The Audit Committee receives an annual ERM report on risk assessment and risk management in which risks are identified and assigned a significance rating based on potential consequences of the risk, the likelihood of occurrence, and mitigation preparedness.

Our Chief Executive Officer, who is primarily responsible for managing our day-to-day business, is ultimately responsible to the Board for all risk categories. Our executive officers are assigned responsibility for the various risk categories. The Board has delegated to its Committees the responsibility to monitor certain risks and receive regular updates on those risks.

Cybersecurity

Global attacks on corporate IT and Operational Technology are increasingly frequent and sophisticated. Halliburton takes every threat to cybersecurity seriously. We invest significant resources in protecting Company systems and data, and do so in alignment with industry standards, including the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 27001, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) 800-53, NIST 800-82, and International Electrochemical Commission (IEC) 62443. The Company’s Board of Directors was an early adopter among companies to call for an every-meeting update on cybersecurity. They receive quarterly cybersecurity updates, and our Audit Committee receives an in-depth annual review.

Energy Demand and Climate Initiatives

In 2022, the Company and our customers worked on furthering the energy mix transition to a lower carbon future. While worldwide demand for oil and gas remains strong, the energy mix transition is an issue of global importance. With guidance from the Board of Directors, the Company made progress on our goal to reduce Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 40% by 2035 from our baseline year of 2018. Halliburton executed on opportunities to reduce emissions and is on track to meet reduction targets.

Non-Financial Strategic Metrics and Incentive Plans

As a result of our Listen and Respond shareholder outreach effort, and with the endorsement of our shareholders, the Compensation Committee decided, effective January 1, 2022, to include Non-Financial Strategic Metrics focused on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and DE&I — two of our main areas of focus — in our annual incentive plan. Non-Financial Strategic Metrics comprise 20% of the total award, with achievement of specific financial goals comprising 80% of the total award. More information on these Non-Financial Strategic Metrics is provided beginning on page 54.

  Chair           Member

The Board has determined that all members of the Audit Committee are independent under our Corporate Governance Guidelines. The Board has determined that M. Katherine Banks, Alan M. Bennett, Murry S. Gerber, and Bhavesh V. Patel are “audit committee financial experts” as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC.

Board Attendance

During 2022, the Board held 6 meetings and met in executive session of the independent Directors, without management present, on 4 occasions. Committee meetings were held as follows:

All members of the Board attended at least 87% of the total number of meetings of the Board and the Committees on which he or she served during the last fiscal year.

All of our Directors attended the 2022 Annual Meeting, as required by our Corporate Governance Guidelines.

Evaluation of Board and Director Performance

The Board believes that a rigorous evaluation process is an essential component of strong corporate governance practices. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee annually conducts a four-part evaluation process to evaluate Board effectiveness and aid in succession planning.

Shareholder Nominations of Directors

Our By-laws provide that shareholders may nominate persons for election to the Board at a meeting of shareholders.

Shareholder nominations require written notice to the Corporate Secretary at the address of our principal executive office set forth on page 87 of this proxy statement, and for the Annual Meeting of Shareholders in 2024, must be received not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the anniversary date of the 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, or no later than February 17, 2024, and no earlier than January 18, 2024. The shareholder notice must contain, among other things, certain information relating to the shareholder and the proposed nominee as described in our By-laws. In addition, the proposed nominee may be required to furnish other information as we may reasonably require to determine the eligibility of the proposed nominee to serve as a Director.

Our By-laws also provide for proxy access for shareholder nominations of Directors. The provision permits up to 20 shareholders owning 3% or more of our outstanding common stock continuously for at least three years to nominate and include in our proxy materials for a meeting of shareholders up to two Directors or 20% of the Board, whichever is greater, provided that the shareholder(s) and the nominee(s) satisfy the requirements specified in the By-laws.

Qualifications of Directors

Candidates nominated for election or re-election to the Board should possess the following qualifications:

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for assessing the appropriate mix of skills and characteristics required of Board members and periodically reviews and updates the criteria. In selecting Director nominees, the Board considers the personal characteristics, experience, and other criteria as set forth in our Corporate Governance Guidelines, as well as our specific needs and the needs of our Board at the time.

Board Refreshment

The Board of Directors is responsible for filling Board vacancies when they occur, and for making sure regular Board refreshment occurs. The Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines stipulate that each non-management Director shall retire from the Board immediately prior to the annual shareholder meeting that follows their 75^th birthday.

The Board has delegated to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee the duty to select and recommend new candidates for approval. When called upon to fill a vacancy, this Committee considers all recommended candidates, and may retain an independent executive search firm to assist with candidate selection and review.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee conducts an annual review of the overall composition of the Board to determine whether the current non-management Directors collectively represent an appropriate mix of experience, diversity, and expertise. Determination of expertise includes consideration of the following (among other factors): experience in a leadership role in a public or private company, including C-suite experience; experience with oil and gas, energy, manufacturing, engineering, or technology; experience in matters relating to health, safety, and environment; or other sustainability experience.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider candidates for Board membership recommended by Board members, our management, and shareholders. The Committee may also retain an independent executive search firm to identify candidates for consideration and to gather additional information about the candidate’s background, experience, and reputation. Ms. Weiss and Mr. Smith were each identified as a potential Director candidate by non-management Directors. A shareholder who wishes to recommend a candidate should notify our Corporate Secretary.

This process resulted in enhancement of our Board over the last several years with the addition of four female Directors, one of whom is ethnically diverse, and three ethnically diverse male Directors. Ms. Weiss and Mr. Smith joined the Board in 2023. Ms. Weiss contributes substantial global, multinational experience in the oil and gas industry. As a CEO, Mr. Smith brings deep expertise in setting and executing long-term corporate strategy, identifying and implementing important growth initiatives, and overseeing financial operations and activities. Ms. Young and Mr. Cummings joined the Board in 2022. Ms. Young contributes technology, governance, policy making, and regulatory experience. Mr. Cummings contributes leadership in technology solutions and entrepreneurship. Mr. Patel joined the Board in 2021. His chemical industry experience benefits us greatly as we

expand our chemicals business. Dr. Banks and Ms. Hemingway Hall joined the Board in 2019. Dr. Banks contributes extensive experience in engineering and technology to the Board as well as her perspective as the President of a major research university. Ms. Hemingway Hall decided not to stand for re-election to the Board last year, due solely to a personal decision related to health and travel issues associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and endemic.

Shareholder Engagement

Halliburton’s Board values continuous improvement. We prioritize regular engagement with our shareholders through ongoing, open dialogue that helps us gather valuable feedback and ensures we are aware of investor viewpoints.

To that end, in 2022, independent Board members offered off-season meetings to better understand shareholder priorities and concerns prior to the proxy voting season. We offered to engage with our largest shareholders, as well as several others who had contacted Halliburton. This engagement included offering and participating in in-person sessions. Board members and management conducted meetings with 20 shareholders representing approximately 50% of our shares, and with the two largest proxy advisors, Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. (ISS) and Glass Lewis. These included video conferences and in-person meetings with Murry Gerber (Chair of the Compensation Committee) or Robert Malone (Lead Independent Director) and senior management.

The Company distributed our refreshed shareholder presentation to all of our largest shareholders and others who contacted Halliburton, even if they were unable to participate in a meeting or video call, and offered to follow up with them. 2022 updates to these materials highlighted the most recent available information about our Board oversight and corporate governance; executive compensation program; health, safety, and environment (HSE) performance and strategies; diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I) performance and strategies; and our approach to the energy mix transition. After receiving these new materials, additional shareholders accepted the offer to meet.

In addition to providing an off-season investor engagement program, we solicited shareholder feedback coincident with annual and quarterly reporting, earnings conference calls, and investor meetings. Halliburton’s senior management and Investor Relations team held regular meetings and conference calls with analysts, institutional investors, and ESG rating firms, among others. In 2022, Halliburton participated in 13 sell-side conferences, three non-deal roadshows, and 313  investor meetings that were all part of the Company’s ongoing cadence of shareholder outreach.

Our senior management and Directors presented shareholder feedback to the full Board of Directors for discussion. As a result of these engagements and Board consideration of investor feedback, we made enhancements to our Board governance and executive compensation program.

Communication to the Board

To foster better communication from our shareholders and other interested persons, we maintain a process for shareholders and others to communicate with the Audit Committee and the Board. The process has been approved by both the Audit Committee and the Board and meets the requirements of the NYSE and SEC. The methods of communication with the Board include telephone, mail, and e-mail.

Information regarding these methods of communication is also on our website at www.halliburton.com.

In considering whether a current Director should be nominated for election as a Director, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board considered, among other matters, the expertise and experience of the Director, the annual performance evaluation of the Director, the Director’s attendance at, preparation for, and engagement in Board and Committee meetings, the diversity of the Board, the tenure of the Director, and the overall distribution of tenure among Directors to ensure sufficient experience with the Company’s operations, performance, and technology, and the cycles of the industry. A summary of the qualifications and experience of our non-management Directors is provided under Information about Nominees for Director.

AFTER CONSULTATION WITH THE NOMINATING AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE, THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THE ELECTION OF EACH OF THE DIRECTOR NOMINEES LISTED UNDER INFORMATION ABOUT NOMINEES FOR DIRECTOR.

The thirteen nominees are all current Directors. If any nominee is unwilling or unable to serve, favorable and uninstructed proxies will be voted for a substitute nominee designated by the Board. If a suitable substitute is not available, the Board will reduce the number of Directors to be elected. Each nominee has indicated approval of his or her nomination and his or her willingness to serve if elected. The Directors elected will serve for the ensuing year and until their successors are elected and qualify.

Directors’ Compensation

Directors’ Fees

All non-management Directors receive an annual retainer of $130,000, which increased in 2022 from $115,000, the annual retainer since 2014. The Lead Independent Director receives an additional annual retainer of $35,000, and the chair of each Committee receives an additional annual retainer for serving as chair as follows: Audit - $25,000; Compensation - $20,000; Health, Safety and Environment - $20,000; and Nominating and Corporate Governance - $20,000. Non-management Directors are permitted to defer all or part of their fees under the Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan.

Directors’ Equity Awards

All non-management Directors receive an annual equity award with a value of approximately $185,000, which remains unchanged since 2014, consisting of restricted stock units (RSUs), each of which represents the right to receive a share of common stock at a future date. These annual awards are made in December. The actual number of RSUs is determined by dividing $185,000 by the average of the closing price of our common stock on the NYSE on each business day during the month of November. The value of the award may be more or less than $185,000 based on the methodology described above for determining the number of RSUs to be awarded and the closing price of our common stock on the NYSE on the date of the award. Non-management Directors are permitted to defer all of their RSUs under the Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan.

Additionally, when a non-management Director first joins the Board, he or she receives an equity award shortly thereafter of RSUs equal to a prorated value of the annual equity award of $185,000. The factor used to determine the prorated award is the number of whole months of service from the beginning of the month in which Board service begins to the following first of December divided by 12. The number of RSUs awarded is determined by dividing the prorated award amount by the average of the closing price of our common stock on the NYSE on each business day during the month immediately preceding the Director joining the Board.

Directors may not sell, assign, otherwise transfer, or encumber restricted shares (which were previously granted to non-management Directors) or RSUs until the restrictions are removed. Beginning in 2020 and to align our practices with peer companies, restrictions on RSUs lapse entirely on the first anniversary of the grant date with the applicable underlying shares of common stock distributed to the non-management Director unless the Director elected to defer receipt of the shares under the Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan. Restrictions on RSUs granted prior to 2020 lapse 25% a year over four years. If a non-management Director has a separation of service from the Board before completing the specified number of service years from the applicable award date, any unvested RSUs would be forfeited, unless the Board determines to accelerate vesting. Restrictions on restricted shares and RSUs lapse following termination of Board service only under specified circumstances, which include death or disability, retirement under the Director mandatory retirement policy, or early retirement after at least four years of service.

During the restriction period, Directors have the right to (i) vote restricted shares, but not shares underlying RSUs, and (ii) receive dividends or dividend equivalents in cash on restricted shares and RSUs that have not been deferred. RSUs that have been deferred receive dividend equivalents under the Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan.

Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan

The Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan is a nonqualified deferred compensation plan and participation is completely voluntary. Under the plan, non-management Directors are permitted to defer all or part of their retainer fees and all of the shares of common stock underlying their RSUs when they vest. If a non-management Director elects to defer retainer fees under the plan, then the Director may elect to have his or her deferred fees accumulate under an interest-bearing account or translate on a quarterly basis into Halliburton common stock equivalent units (SEUs) under a stock equivalents account. If a non-management Director elects to defer receipt of the shares of common stock underlying his or her RSUs when they vest, then those shares are retained as deferred RSUs under the plan. The interest-bearing account is credited daily with interest at the prime rate of Citibank, N.A. The SEUs and deferred RSUs are credited quarterly with dividend equivalents based on the same dividend rate as Halliburton common stock and those amounts are translated into additional SEUs or RSUs, respectively.

After a Director’s retirement, distributions under the plan are made to the Director in a single distribution or in annual installments over a 5- or 10-year period as elected by the Director. Distributions under the interest-bearing account are made in cash, while distributions of SEUs under the stock equivalents account and deferred RSUs are made in shares of Halliburton common stock. Messrs. Al Khayyal, Bennett, Carroll, and Patel have deferred retainer fees under the plan. Dr. Banks, Ms. Hemingway Hall, and Messrs. Al Khayyal, Albrecht, Bennett, Carroll, and Patel have deferred RSUs under the plan.

Directors’ Stock Ownership Requirements

We have stock ownership requirements for all non-management Directors to further align their interests with our shareholders. As a result, all non-management Directors are required to own Halliburton common stock in an amount equal to or in excess of the greater of (i) the annual base retainer in effect on the date the non-management Director is first elected to the Board multiplied by five or (ii) $500,000. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews the holdings of all non-management Directors, which include restricted shares, other Halliburton common stock, and RSUs owned by the Director, at each May meeting. Each non-management Director has five years to meet the requirements, measured from the date he or she is first elected to the Board. Each non-management Director currently meets the stock ownership requirements or is on track to do so within the requisite five-year period.

Director Clawback Policy

We have a clawback policy under which we will seek, in all appropriate cases, to recoup incentive compensation paid to, awarded to, or credited for the benefit of a Director, if and to the extent that:

The disinterested members of the Board and the disinterested members of the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may be involved in reviewing, considering, and making determinations regarding the Director’s alleged conduct, whether recoupment is appropriate or required, and the type and amount of incentive compensation to be recouped from the Director.

The policy also provides that, to the extent permitted by applicable law and not previously disclosed in a filing with the SEC, we will disclose in our proxy statement the circumstances of any recoupment arising under the policy or that there has not been any recoupment pursuant to the policy for the prior calendar year. There was no recoupment under the policy in 2022.

Matching Programs

To further our support for charities, Directors may participate in the Halliburton Foundation’s matching gift programs for educational institutions, not-for-profit hospitals, and medical foundations. For each eligible contribution, the Halliburton Foundation contributes 2.25 times the amount contributed by the Director, subject to approval by its Trustees. The maximum aggregate of all contributions each calendar year by a Director eligible for matching is $50,000, resulting in a maximum aggregate amount contributed annually by the Halliburton Foundation in the form of matching gifts of $112,500 for any Director who participates in the programs. Neither the Halliburton Foundation nor we have made a charitable contribution, within the preceding three years, to any charitable organization in which a Director serves as an executive officer that exceeds in any single year the greater of $1 million or 2% of such charitable organization’s consolidated gross revenues.

The Halliburton Political Action Committee, or HALPAC, allows Directors to donate to political candidates and participate in the political process. We match the Directors’ donations to HALPAC dollar-for-dollar to a 501(c)(3) status nonprofit organization of the contributor’s choice.

2022 Director Compensation

Fees Earned or Paid In Cash. The amounts in this column represent retainer fees earned in fiscal year 2022, but not necessarily paid in 2022. Refer to the section Directors’ Fees for information on annual retainer fees.

Stock Awards. The amounts in the Stock Awards column reflect the grant date fair value of RSUs awarded in 2022. We calculate the fair value of equity awards by multiplying the number of RSUs granted by the closing stock price as of the award’s grant date.

The number of restricted shares (RSAs), outstanding RSUs, deferred RSUs, and SEUs held at December 31, 2022, by non-management Directors are:

Change in Pension Value and Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Earnings. The amounts in the Change in Pension Value and Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Earnings column are attributable to the above-market earnings for the Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan, a nonqualified deferred compensation plan. The methodology for determining what constitutes above market earnings is the difference between the interest rate as stated in the plan document and the Internal Revenue Service Long-Term 120% AFR rate as of December 31, 2022. The 120% AFR rate used for determining above-market earnings in 2022 was 5.22%. None of the Directors had above-market earnings, except as noted for Mr. Patel.

All Other Compensation. This column includes compensation related to the matching gift programs under the Halliburton Foundation and for HALPAC, the Accidental Death and Dismemberment program, dividends or dividend equivalents on restricted shares or RSUs, and dividend equivalents associated with the Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan.

Directors who participated in the matching gift program and the corresponding match provided by the Halliburton Foundation in 2022 are: Mr. Albrecht - $112,500; Dr. Banks - $69,228; Mr. Bennett - $67,500; Mr. Gerber - $112,500; Mr. Malone - $112,500; and Mr. Patel - $112,500.

Halliburton Political Action Committee matching contributions are: Mr. Bennett - $5,000; and Ms. Young - $2,500.

Non-management Directors are provided an Accidental Death and Dismemberment benefit, the annual premium for which is $155. This benefit will no longer be provided effective January 1, 2023.

Directors who received dividends or dividend equivalents on restricted shares or RSUs held on Halliburton record dates are: Dr. Banks - $1,811; Mr. Bennett - $12,113; Mr. Carroll - $9,730; Mr. Cummings - $1,986; Mr. Gerber - $5,484; Ms. Hemingway Hall - $573; Mr. Malone - $11,649; and Ms. Young - $1,986.

Proposal No. 2  Ratification of Selection of Principal Independent Public Accountants

The Audit Committee is responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention, oversight of the work, and evaluation of the principal independent public accountants retained to audit our financial statements. The Audit Committee and Board have approved the selection of KPMG LLP as our principal independent public accountants to examine our financial statements and books and records for the year ended December 31, 2023, and a resolution will be presented at the Annual Meeting to ratify this selection. The Audit Committee and Board believe that the continued retention of KPMG to serve as our principal independent public accountants for the year ended December 31, 2023, is in the best interests of Halliburton and our shareholders. Representatives of KPMG are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting and be available to respond to appropriate questions from shareholders.

KPMG began serving as our principal independent public accountants for the year ended December 31, 2002. The Audit Committee routinely reviews the performance and retention of our independent public accountants, including an evaluation of service quality, the nature and extent of non-audit services, and other factors required to be considered when assessing independence from Halliburton and its management. The Audit Committee also periodically considers whether there should be a rotation of the principal independent public accountants and is involved in the selection of the Principal Independent Public Accountants’ lead engagement partner and the mandated rotation process of such partner.

The affirmative vote of the majority of votes cast by holders of shares of our common stock present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the matter is needed to approve the proposal.

If the shareholders do not ratify the selection of KPMG, the Board will reconsider the selection of independent public accountants.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF KPMG LLP AS PRINCIPAL INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS TO EXAMINE OUR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND BOOKS AND RECORDS FOR THE YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2023.

Audit Committee Report

We operate under a written charter, a copy of which is available on Halliburton’s website at www.halliburton.com. As required by the charter, we review and reassess the charter annually and recommend any changes to the Board for approval. We are also mindful of the observations provided in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Statement on Role of Audit Committees in Financial Reporting and Key Reminders Regarding Oversight Responsibilities.

Halliburton’s management is responsible for preparing Halliburton’s financial statements and the principal independent public accountants are responsible for auditing those financial statements. The Audit Committee’s role is to provide oversight of management in carrying out management’s responsibility and to appoint, compensate, retain, oversee the work of, and evaluate the principal independent public accountants. The Audit Committee is not providing any expert or special assurance as to Halliburton’s financial statements or any professional certification as to the principal independent public accountants’ work.

In fulfilling our oversight role for the year ended December 31, 2022, we:

Based on the foregoing, we recommended to the Board that the audited financial statements be included in Halliburton’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Fees Paid to KPMG LLP

During 2021 and 2022, we incurred the following fees for services performed by KPMG LLP.

Audit Fees

Audit fees represent the aggregate fees for professional services rendered by KPMG for the integrated audit of our annual financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021, and December 31, 2022. Audit fees also include the audits of many of our subsidiaries to comply with statutory requirements in foreign countries and reviews of our financial statements included in the Forms 10-Q we filed during fiscal years 2021 and 2022.

Audit-Related Fees

Audit-related fees were incurred for assurance and related services that are traditionally performed by the independent public accountants. These services primarily include attestation engagements required by contractual or regulatory provisions.

Tax Fees

The aggregate fees for tax services primarily consisted of international tax compliance and tax return services related to our expatriate employees. In 2021, tax compliance and preparation fees total $0.2 million and tax advisory fees total $0.4 million, and in 2022, tax compliance and preparation fees total $0.2 million and tax advisory fees total $0.4 million.

All Other Fees

All other fees are comprised of professional services rendered by KPMG related to nonrecurring miscellaneous services.

Fee Approval Policies and Procedures

The Audit Committee has established a written policy that requires the approval by the Audit Committee of all services provided by KPMG as the principal independent public accountants that examine our financial statements and books and records and of all audit services provided by other independent public accountants. Prior to engaging KPMG for the annual audit, the Audit Committee reviews a Principal Independent Public Accountants Auditor Services Plan. KPMG then performs services throughout the year as approved by the Committee. KPMG reviews with the Committee, at least quarterly, a projection of KPMG’s fees for the year. Periodically, the Audit Committee approves revisions to the plan if the Committee determines changes are warranted. Our Audit Committee also considered whether KPMG’s provision of tax services as reported above were compatible with maintaining KPMG’s independence as our principal independent public accountants. All of the fees described above for services provided by KPMG were approved in accordance with the policy.

Proposal No. 3  Advisory Approval of Executive Compensation

Pursuant to Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, our shareholders are being presented with the opportunity to vote to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of our Named Executive Officers (NEOs) as disclosed in this proxy statement. As reaffirmed by our shareholders at the 2017 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, consistent with our Board’s recommendation, we are submitting this proposal for a non-binding vote on an annual basis.

As described in detail under Compensation Discussion and Analysis, our executive compensation program is designed to attract, motivate, and retain our NEOs, who are critical to our success. Under the program, our NEOs are rewarded for the achievement of specific annual, long-term, and strategic goals, corporate goals, and the realization of increased shareholder returns. Please read Compensation Discussion and Analysis for additional details about our executive compensation program, including information about the fiscal year 2022 compensation of our NEOs and our Board’s ongoing commitment to ensure that our program aligns with our long-term strategy and shareholder value creation.

The Compensation Committee continually reviews the compensation program for our NEOs to ensure the program achieves the desired goals of aligning our executive compensation structure with our shareholders’ interests and current market practices. We believe our executive compensation program achieves the following objectives identified under Compensation Discussion and Analysis:

We are asking our shareholders to indicate their support for our NEOs’ compensation as described in this proxy statement and vote “FOR” the following resolution at the Annual Meeting: “RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to Halliburton’s Named Executive Officers, as disclosed in this proxy statement pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables, and narrative discussion, is hereby approved.”

The affirmative vote of the majority of votes cast by holders of shares of our common stock present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the matter is needed to approve the proposal.

Our Board and our Compensation Committee value the opinions of our shareholders. The say-on-pay vote is advisory and, therefore, not binding on us, our Board, or our Compensation Committee. However, the Compensation Committee considers shareholder feedback in its ongoing review of our executive compensation program.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THE APPROVAL, ON AN ADVISORY BASIS, OF THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS.

Compensation Committee Report

We have reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis with Company management and, based on such review and discussion, we recommended to the Board that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this proxy statement.
