See Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements for further financial information related to each of our business segments.

Markets and competition
We are one of the world’s largest diversified energy services companies. Our services and products are sold in highly competitive markets throughout the world. Competitive factors impacting sales of our services and products include: price; service delivery; health, safety, and environmental standards and practices; service quality; global talent retention; understanding the geological characteristics of the reservoir; product quality; warranty; and technical proficiency.

We conduct business worldwide in more than 70 countries. The business operations of our divisions are organized around four primary geographic regions: North America, Latin America, Europe/Africa/CIS, and Middle East/Asia. In 2023, 2022, and 2021, based on the location of services provided and products sold, 44%, 45%, and 40%, respectively, of our consolidated revenue was from the United States. No other country accounted for more than 10% of our consolidated revenue during these periods. See "Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" for additional information about our geographic operations. Because the markets for our services and products are vast and cross numerous geographic lines, it is not practicable to provide a meaningful estimate of the total number of our competitors. The industries we serve are highly competitive, and we have many substantial competitors. Most of our services and products are marketed through our service and sales organizations.

The following charts depict our revenue split between our four primary geographic regions for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

HAL 2023 FORM 10-K | 3


Item 1 | Business
Our operations in some countries and regions may be adversely affected by unsettled political conditions, acts of terrorism, civil unrest, force majeure, war or other armed conflict, health or similar issues, sanctions, expropriation or other governmental actions, inflation, changes in foreign currency exchange rates, foreign currency exchange restrictions and highly inflationary currencies, as well as other geopolitical factors. We believe the geographic diversification of our business activities reduces the risk that an interruption of operations in any one country, other than the United States, would be materially adverse to our business, consolidated results of operations, or consolidated financial condition.

Information regarding our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations, risk concentration, and financial instruments used to minimize risk is included in Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Financial Instrument Market Risk” and in Note 16 to the consolidated financial statements.

Customers
Our revenue during the past three years was derived from the sale of services and products to the energy industry. No single customer represented more than 10% of our consolidated revenue in any period presented.

Raw materials
Raw materials essential to our business are normally readily available. However, market conditions can trigger constraints in the supply of certain raw materials, such as proppants (primarily sand), chemicals, metals, and gels. We are always striving to ensure the availability of resources and manage raw material costs. Our procurement department uses our relationships and buying power to enhance our access to key materials at competitive prices.

Patents
We own a large number of patents and have pending a substantial number of patent applications covering various products and processes. We are also licensed to utilize technology covered by patents owned by others, and we license others to utilize technology covered by our patents. We do not consider any particular patent to be material to our business operations.

Seasonality
Weather and natural phenomena can temporarily affect the performance of our services, but the widespread geographical locations of our operations mitigate those effects. Examples of how weather can impact our business include:
-    the severity and duration of the winter in North America can have a significant impact on drilling activity and on natural gas storage levels;
-    the timing and duration of the spring thaw in Canada directly affects activity levels due to road restrictions;
-    typhoons and hurricanes can disrupt coastal and offshore operations; and
-    severe weather during the winter normally results in reduced activity levels in the North Sea.

Additionally, customer spending patterns for completion tools typically result in higher activity in the fourth quarter of the year. We recognize revenue on customer software contract sales predominantly in the first and fourth quarters of the year.

Our workforce
Our workforce is our top asset in enabling us to accomplish innovative, high-quality work for our customers and to address the world’s energy challenges. To attract and retain talent, we promote a safe and inclusive work environment along with competitive benefits. As of December 31, 2023, we employed approximately 48,000 people worldwide representing over 130 nationalities and operated in more than 70 countries, with approximately 18% of our employees subject to collective bargaining agreements. Based upon the geographic diversification of our employees, we do not believe any risk of loss from employee strikes or other collective actions are material to the conduct of our operations taken as a whole.

With our large employee base and global breadth, our workforce is diverse. Halliburton invests in local workforce development with the aim of a positive impact on communities where we work. In 2023, 91% of our workforce and 85% of management, who were full-time employees, and not classified as expatriates or commuters, were local to the countries where they work.

Recruiting and Turnover
Given the size and geographic scope of our workforce, we have a robust global recruiting organization, which includes personnel focused on recruiting and retention, online job postings, and recruiting programs at academic institutions for internships and entry-level roles.

HAL 2023 FORM 10-K | 4


Item 1 | Business
In 2023, we hired about 8,700 new employees and were able to rehire more than 2,000 former employees despite a tight labor market. We have found that hiring former employees allows us to add needed personnel who are able to apply their prior experience at the Company to quickly re-acclimate and add value to their teams.

Leadership
The ongoing identification and development of leadership talent ensures business continuity and strengthens our competitive advantage, both of which are critical for our short-term and long-term success. In 2023, we saw a 14% increase in female candidates on leadership succession charts compared to 2022. One of our most significant investments in developing future leaders is our executive education programs. In 2023, approximately 24% of the participants in these programs were female and 53 different nationalities were represented.

As part of our commitment to employee engagement, we solicit feedback from employees on their workplace challenges, and empower them to share their perspectives and ideas to improve the overall employee experience, including performance, development, and work-life balance. Notably, according to a survey we conducted in 2023, 96% of responding employees feel the work they do everyday matters. This is especially meaningful since 84% of our employees responded to the survey.

Benefits and well-being
We provide our employees around the world with benefits that address the diverse needs of our workforce and their families. We evaluate our benefits package to identify opportunities for improvement and to remain competitive. In 2023, we enhanced healthcare benefits and expenditure planning for United States employees with refreshed medical plans, enhancements to our surrogacy offerings, legal plans, pharmacy advocacy programs, and a global business travel accident program. In 2023, we continued to expand our Employee Assistance Program (EAP) and now all Halliburton employees and their families around the globe have access to EAP and mental health support services in their local markets.

Safety
Safety is a Halliburton core value. Our long-term safety programs and processes are tried, tested, and well-established, including our Journey to ZERO initiative, to maintain our strong performance and improve proactive identification and management of safety risks. In 2023, we focused on risk management and leadership visits. As a result of our focus on safety, for the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our total recordable incident rates were 0.25 and 0.29 (incidents per 200,000 hours worked), non-productive times were 0.24% and 0.27% (percentage of total operating hours), lost-time incident rates were 0.07 and 0.08 (incidents per 200,000 hours worked), and preventable recordable vehicle incident rates were 0.10 for both (incidents per million miles traveled), respectively.

Government regulation
We are subject to numerous environmental, legal, and regulatory requirements related to our operations worldwide. For further information related to environmental matters and regulation, see Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements and Item 1(a). Risk Factors.”

Hydraulic fracturing
Hydraulic fracturing is a process that creates fractures extending from the well bore into the rock formation to enable natural gas or oil to move more easily from the rock pores to a production conduit. A significant portion of our Completion and Production segment provides hydraulic fracturing services to customers developing shale natural gas and shale oil. From time to time, questions arise about the scope of our operations in the shale natural gas and shale oil sectors, and the extent to which these operations may affect human health and the environment.

At the direction of our customer, we design and generally implement a hydraulic fracturing operation to stimulate the wells production after the well has been drilled, cased, and cemented. Our customer is generally responsible for providing the base fluid (usually water) used in the hydraulic fracturing of a well. We frequently supply the proppant (primarily sand) and at least a portion of the additives used in the overall fracturing fluid mixture. In addition, we mix the additives and proppant with the base fluid and pump the mixture down the wellbore to create the desired fractures in the target formation. The customer is responsible for disposing or recycling for further use any materials that are subsequently produced or pumped out of the well, including flowback fluids and produced water.

As part of the process of constructing the well, the customer will take a number of steps designed to protect aquifers. In particular, the casing and cementing of the well are designed to provide 'zonal isolation' so that the fluids pumped down the wellbore and the oil and natural gas and other materials that are subsequently pumped out of the well will not come into contact with shallow aquifers or other shallow formations through which those materials could potentially migrate to freshwater aquifers or the surface.
HAL 2023 FORM 10-K | 5


Item 1 | Business

The potential environmental impacts of hydraulic fracturing have been studied by numerous government entities and others. In 2004, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) conducted an extensive study of hydraulic fracturing practices, focusing on coalbed methane wells, and their potential effect on underground sources of drinking water. The EPA’s study concluded that hydraulic fracturing of coalbed methane wells poses little or no threat to underground sources of drinking water. In December 2016, the EPA released a final report, “Hydraulic Fracturing for Oil and Gas: Impacts from the Hydraulic Fracturing Water Cycle on Drinking Water Resources in the United States” representing the culmination of a six-year study requested by Congress. While the EPA report noted a potential for some impact to drinking water sources caused by hydraulic fracturing, the agency confirmed the overall incidence of impacts is low. Moreover, a number of the areas of potential impact identified in the report involve activities for which we are not generally responsible, such as potential impacts associated with withdrawals of surface water for use as a base fluid and management of wastewater.

We have proactively developed processes to provide our customers with the chemical constituents of our hydraulic fracturing fluids to enable our customers to comply with state laws as well as voluntary standards established by the Chemical Disclosure Registry, www.fracfocus.org. We have invested considerable resources in developing hydraulic fracturing technologies, in both the equipment and chemistry portions of our business, which offer our customers a variety of environment-friendly options related to the use of hydraulic fracturing fluid additives and other aspects of our hydraulic fracturing operations. We created a hydraulic fracturing fluid system comprised of materials sourced entirely from the food industry. We are committed to the continued development of innovative chemical and mechanical technologies that allow for more economical and environment-friendly development of the world’s oil and natural gas reserves, and that reduce noise while complying with Tier 4 lower emission legislation.

In evaluating any environmental risks that may be associated with our hydraulic fracturing services, it is helpful to understand the role that we play in the development of shale natural gas and shale oil. Our principal task generally is to manage the process of injecting fracturing fluids into the borehole to stimulate the well. Thus, based on the provisions in our contracts and applicable law, the primary environmental risks we face are potential pre-injection spills or releases of stored fracturing fluids and potential spills or releases of fuel or other fluids associated with pumps, blenders, conveyors, or other above-ground equipment used in the hydraulic fracturing process.

Although possible concerns have been raised about hydraulic fracturing, the circumstances described above have helped to mitigate those concerns. To date, we have not been obligated to compensate any indemnified party for any environmental liability arising directly from hydraulic fracturing, although there can be no assurance that such obligations or liabilities will not arise in the future. For further information on risks related to hydraulic fracturing, see Item 1(a). Risk Factors.”

Item 1(a) | Risk Factors
Item 1(a). Risk Factors.
When considering an investment in Halliburton Company, all of the risk factors described below and other information included and incorporated by reference in this annual report should be carefully considered. Any of these risk factors could have a significant or material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

Industry Environment Related

Trends in oil and natural gas prices affect the level of exploration, development, and production activity of our customers and the demand for our services and products, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition.
Demand for our services and products is particularly sensitive to the level of exploration, development, and production activity of, and the corresponding capital spending by, oil and natural gas companies. The level of exploration, development, and production activity is directly affected by trends in oil and natural gas prices, which historically have been volatile and are likely to continue to be volatile. Prices for oil and natural gas are subject to large fluctuations in response to relatively minor changes in the supply of and demand for oil and natural gas, market uncertainty, and a variety of other economic factors that are beyond our control. Given the long-term nature of many large-scale development projects, even the perception of longer-term lower oil and natural gas prices by oil and natural gas companies can cause them to reduce or defer major expenditures. Any prolonged reductions of commodity prices or expectations of such reductions could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition.
Factors affecting the prices of oil and natural gas include:
-    the level of supply and demand for oil and natural gas;
-    the ability or willingness of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and the expanded alliance collectively known as OPEC+ to set and maintain oil production levels;
-    the level of oil production in the U.S. and by other non-OPEC+ countries;
-    oil refining capacity and shifts in end-customer preferences toward fuel efficiency and the use of natural gas;
-    the cost of, and constraints associated with, producing and delivering oil and natural gas;
-    governmental regulations and other actions, including economic sanctions and policies of governments regarding the exploration for and production and development of their oil and natural gas reserves;
-    weather conditions, natural disasters, and health or similar issues, such as COVID-19 and other pandemics or epidemics;
-    worldwide political and military actions, and economic conditions, including potential recessions; and
-    increased demand for alternative energy and use of electric vehicles, increased emphasis on decarbonization (including government initiatives, such as tax credits and government subsidies to promote the use of renewable energy sources), and public sentiment around alternatives to oil and natural gas.

HAL 2023 FORM 10-K | 9

Item 1(a) | Risk Factors
Our business is dependent on capital spending by our customers, and reductions in capital spending could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition.
Our business is directly affected by changes in capital expenditures by our customers, and reductions in their capital spending could reduce demand for our services and products and have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition. Some of the items that may impact our customers capital spending include:
-    oil and natural gas prices, which are impacted by the factors described in the preceding risk factor;
-    the inability of our customers to access capital on economically advantageous terms, which may be impacted by, among other things, a decrease of investors interest in hydrocarbon producers because of environmental and sustainability initiatives;
-    changes in customers capital allocation, including an increased allocation to the production of renewable energy or other sustainability efforts, leading to less focus on oil and natural gas production growth;
-    restrictions on our customers ability to get their produced oil and natural gas to market due to infrastructure limitations;
-    consolidation of our customers;
-    customer personnel changes; and
-    adverse developments in the business or operations of our customers, including write-downs of oil and natural gas reserves and borrowing base reductions under customers credit facilities.

Liabilities arising out of our products and services could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition.
Events can occur at sites where our products and equipment are produced, stored, transported, or installed, or where we conduct our operations or provide our services, or at chemical blending or manufacturing facilities, including well blowouts and equipment or materials failures, which could result in explosions, fires, personal injuries, property damage (including surface and subsurface damage), pollution, and potential legal responsibility. Generally, we rely on liability insurance coverage and on contractual indemnities, releases, and limitations of liability with our customers to protect us from potential liability related to such occurrences. However, we do not have these contractual provisions in all contracts, and even where we do, it is possible that the respective customer or insurer could seek to avoid or be financially unable to meet its obligations, or a court may decline to enforce such provisions. Damages that are not indemnified or released could greatly exceed available insurance coverage and could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition.

Our business could be materially and adversely affected by severe or unseasonable weather where we have operations.
Our business could be materially and adversely affected by severe weather, particularly in Canada, the Gulf of Mexico, and the North Sea. Many experts believe global climate change could increase the frequency and severity of extreme weather conditions. Repercussions of severe or unseasonable weather conditions may include:
-    evacuation of personnel and inoperability of equipment resulting in curtailment of services;
-    weather-related damage to offshore drilling rigs resulting in suspension of operations;
-    weather-related damage to our facilities and project work sites;
-    inability to deliver materials to job sites in accordance with contract schedules;
-    fluctuations in demand for oil and natural gas, including possible decreases during unseasonably warm winters; and
-    loss of productivity.

Our failure to protect our proprietary information and any successful intellectual property challenges or infringement proceedings against us could materially and adversely affect our competitive position.
We rely on a variety of intellectual property rights that we use in our services and products. We may not be able to successfully preserve these intellectual property rights in the future, and these rights could be invalidated, circumvented, or challenged. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries in which our services and products may be sold do not protect intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States. Courts could find that others infringe our patent or other intellectual property rights or that our products and services may infringe the intellectual property rights of others. Our failure to protect our proprietary information and any successful intellectual property challenges or infringement proceedings against us could materially and adversely affect us.

If we are not able to design, develop and produce commercially competitive products and to implement commercially competitive services in a timely manner in response to changes in the market, customer requirements, competitive pressures, developments associated with climate change concerns and energy mix transition, and technology trends, our business and consolidated results of operations could be materially and adversely affected, and the value of our intellectual property may be reduced.
The market for our services and products is characterized by continual technological developments to provide better and more reliable performance and services. If we are not able to design, develop, and produce commercially competitive products and to implement commercially competitive services in a timely manner in response to changes in the market, customer requirements, competitive pressures, developments associated with climate change concerns and energy mix transition, and technology trends, our business and consolidated results of operations could be materially and adversely affected, and the value of our intellectual property may be reduced. Likewise, if our proprietary technologies, equipment, facilities, or work processes become obsolete, we may no longer be competitive, and our business and consolidated results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

We sometimes provide integrated project management services in the form of long-term, fixed price contracts that may require us to assume additional risks associated with cost over-runs, operating cost inflation, labor availability and productivity, supplier and contractor pricing and performance, and potential claims for liquidated damages.
We sometimes provide integrated project management services outside our normal discrete business in the form of long-term, fixed price contracts. Some of these contracts are required by our customers, primarily national oil companies. These services include acting as project managers as well as service providers and may require us to assume additional risks associated with cost over-runs. These customers may provide us with inaccurate or limited information, that may result in cost over-runs, delays, and project losses. In addition, our customers often operate in countries with unsettled political conditions, war, civil unrest, or other types of community issues. These issues may also result in cost over-runs, delays, and project losses.

Providing services on an integrated basis may also require us to assume additional risks associated with operating cost inflation, labor availability and productivity, supplier pricing and performance, and potential claims for liquidated damages. We rely on third-party subcontractors and equipment providers to assist us with the completion of these types of contracts. To the extent that we cannot engage subcontractors or acquire equipment or materials in a timely manner and on reasonable terms, our ability to complete a project in accordance with stated deadlines or at a profit may be impaired. If the amount we are required to pay for these goods and services exceeds the amount we have estimated in bidding for fixed-price work, we could experience losses in the performance of these contracts. These delays and additional costs may be substantial, and we may be required to compensate our customers for these delays. This may reduce the profit to be realized or result in a loss on a project.

Constraints in the supply of, prices for, and availability of transportation of raw materials and electric power could have a material adverse effect on our business and consolidated results of operations.
Our business depends on the supply and availability of raw and essential materials. Raw materials essential to our operations and manufacturing, such as sand, chemicals, metals, gels, and electronic components (circuit boards), are normally readily available. Shortage of raw materials as a result of high levels of demand or loss of suppliers during market challenges can trigger constraints in the supply chain of those raw materials, particularly where we have a relationship with a single supplier for a particular resource. Many of the raw materials essential to our business require the use of rail, storage, and trucking services to transport the materials to our job sites. These services, particularly during times of high demand, may cause delays in the arrival of or otherwise constrain our supply of raw materials. In addition, as we increase the roll-out of our Zeus electric fracturing systems, we might face challenges to source sufficient electric power or there might not be adequate infrastructure to support the operation of our systems.

These constraints on raw materials and electric power could have a material adverse effect on our business and consolidated results of operations. In addition, price increases imposed by our vendors for raw materials and transportation providers used in our business could have a material adverse effect on our business and consolidated results of operations if we are unable pass these increases through to our customers.

Our ability to operate and our growth potential could be materially and adversely affected if we cannot attract, employ, and retain technical personnel at a competitive cost.
Many of the services that we provide and the products that we sell are complex and highly engineered and often must perform or be performed in harsh conditions. We believe that our success depends upon our ability to attract, employ, and retain technical personnel with the ability to design, utilize, and enhance these services and products. A significant increase in the wages paid by competing employers could result in a reduction of our skilled labor force, increases in the wage rates that we must pay, or both. If either of these events were to occur, our cost structure could increase, our margins could decrease, and any growth potential could be impaired.

Item 1(a) | Risk Factors
Laws and Regulations Related

Our operations outside the United States require us to comply with a number of United States and international regulations, violations of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition.
Our operations outside the United States require us to comply with a number of United States and international regulations. For example, our operations in countries outside the United States are subject to the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), which prohibits United States companies and their agents and employees from providing anything of value to a foreign official for the purposes of influencing any act or decision of these individuals in their official capacity to help obtain or retain business, direct business to any person or corporate entity, or obtain any unfair advantage. Our activities create the risk of unauthorized payments or offers of payments by our employees, agents, or joint venture partners that could be in violation of anti-corruption laws, even though some of these parties are not subject to our control. We have internal control policies and procedures and have implemented training and compliance programs for our employees and agents with respect to the FCPA. However, we cannot assure that our policies, procedures, and programs will always protect us from reckless or criminal acts committed by our employees or agents. We are also subject to the risks that our employees, joint venture partners, and agents outside of the United States may fail to comply with other applicable laws. Allegations of violations of applicable anti-corruption laws have resulted and may in the future result in internal, independent, or government investigations. Violations of anti-corruption laws may result in severe criminal or civil sanctions, and we may be subject to other liabilities, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations and consolidated financial condition.

In addition, the shipment of goods, services, and technology across international borders subjects us to extensive trade laws and regulations. Our import activities are governed by the unique customs laws and regulations in each of the countries where we operate. Moreover, many countries, including the United States, control the export, re-export, and in-country transfer of certain goods, services, and technology and impose related export recordkeeping and reporting obligations. Governments may also impose economic sanctions against certain countries, persons, and entities that may restrict or prohibit transactions involving such countries, persons, and entities, which may limit or prevent our conduct of business in certain jurisdictions. The imposition of such sanctions on Russia in connection with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine led to our decision to dispose of our Russian operations during the third quarter of 2022.

The laws and regulations concerning import activity, export recordkeeping and reporting, export control and economic sanctions are complex and constantly changing. These laws and regulations can cause delays in shipments and unscheduled operational downtime. Moreover, any failure to comply with applicable legal and regulatory trading obligations could result in government investigations of our activities, as well as criminal and civil penalties and sanctions, such as fines, imprisonment, debarment from governmental contracts, seizure of shipments, and loss of import and export privileges.

Our activities outside of the United States expose us to various legal, social, economic, and political issues which could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations and consolidated financial condition.

Changes in, compliance with, or our failure to comply with laws in the countries in which we conduct business may negatively impact our ability to provide services in, make sales to, and transfer personnel or equipment among some of those countries and could have a material adverse effect on our business and consolidated results of operations.
In the countries in which we conduct business, we are subject to multiple and, at times, inconsistent regulatory regimes, including those that govern our use of radioactive materials, explosives, and chemicals in our operations. Various national and international regulatory regimes govern the shipment of these items. Many countries, but not all, impose special controls upon the export and import of radioactive materials, explosives, and chemicals. Our ability to do business is subject to maintaining required licenses and complying with these multiple regulatory requirements applicable to these special products. In addition, the various laws governing import and export of both products and technology apply to a wide range of services and products we offer. In turn, this can affect our employment practices of hiring people of different nationalities because these laws may prohibit or limit access to some products or technology by employees of various nationalities. Changes in, compliance with, or our failure to comply with these laws may negatively impact our ability to provide services in, make sales to, and transfer personnel or equipment among some of the countries in which we operate and could have a material adverse effect on our business and consolidated results of operations.

Item 1(a) | Risk Factors
The adoption of any future federal, state, or local laws or implementing regulations imposing reporting obligations on, or limiting or banning, the hydraulic fracturing process could make it more difficult to complete natural gas and oil wells and could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition.
Various federal and state legislative and regulatory initiatives, as well as actions in other countries, have been or could be undertaken that could result in additional requirements or restrictions being imposed on hydraulic fracturing operations. For example, the United States may seek to adopt federal regulations or enact federal laws that would impose additional regulatory requirements on or even prohibit hydraulic fracturing in some areas. Legislation and/or regulations have been adopted by many states in the U.S. that require additional disclosure regarding chemicals used in the hydraulic fracturing process but that generally include protections for proprietary information. Legislation, regulations, and/or policies have also been adopted at the state level that impose other types of requirements on hydraulic fracturing operations (such as limits on operations in the event of certain levels of seismic activity). Additional legislation and/or regulations have been adopted or are being considered at the state and local level that could impose further chemical disclosure or other regulatory requirements (such as prohibitions on hydraulic fracturing operations in certain areas) that could affect our operations. Some states and some local jurisdictions have adopted ordinances that restrict or in certain cases prohibit the use of hydraulic fracturing, although many of these ordinances have been challenged and some have been overturned. In addition, governmental authorities in various foreign countries where we have provided or may provide hydraulic fracturing services have imposed or are considering imposing various restrictions or conditions that may affect hydraulic fracturing operations. The adoption of any future federal, state, local, or foreign laws or regulations imposing reporting obligations on, or limiting or banning, the hydraulic fracturing process could make it more difficult to complete natural gas and oil wells and could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition.

Liability for cleanup costs, natural resource damages and other damages arising as a result of environmental laws and regulations could be substantial and could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition.
We are subject to numerous environmental laws and regulations in the United States and the other countries where we do business. We evaluate and address the environmental impact of our operations by assessing and remediating contaminated properties to avoid future liabilities and comply with legal and regulatory requirements. From time to time, claims have been made against us under environmental laws and regulations. In the United States, environmental laws and regulations typically impose strict liability. Strict liability means that in some situations we could be exposed to liability for cleanup costs, natural resource damages, and other damages as a result of our conduct that was lawful at the time it occurred or the conduct of prior operators or other third parties. We are periodically notified of potential liabilities at federal and state superfund sites. These potential liabilities may arise from both historical Halliburton operations and the historical operations of companies that we have acquired. Our exposure at these sites may be materially impacted by unforeseen adverse developments both in the final remediation costs and with respect to the final allocation among the various parties involved at the sites. The relevant regulatory agency may bring suit against us for amounts in excess of what we have accrued and what we believe is our proportionate share of remediation costs at any superfund site. We also could be subject to third-party claims, including punitive damages, with respect to environmental matters for which we have been named as a potentially responsible party. Liability for damages arising as a result of environmental laws or related third-party claims could be substantial and could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition.

HAL 2023 FORM 10-K | 13

Item 1(a) | Risk Factors
Failure on our part to comply with, and the costs of compliance with, applicable health, safety, and environmental requirements could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition.
In addition to the numerous environmental laws and regulations that apply to our operations, we are subject to a variety of laws and regulations in the United States and other countries relating to health and safety. Among those laws and regulations are those covering hazardous materials and requiring emission performance standards for facilities. For example, our well service operations routinely involve the handling of significant amounts of waste materials, some of which are classified as hazardous substances. We also store, transport, and use radioactive and explosive materials in certain of our operations. Applicable regulatory requirements include those concerning:
-    the containment and disposal of hazardous substances, oilfield waste, and other waste materials;
-    the production, storage, transportation and use of chemicals;
-    the production, storage, transportation and use of explosive materials;
-    the importation and use of radioactive materials;
-    the use of underground storage tanks;
-    the use of underground injection wells; and
-    the protection of worker safety both onshore and offshore.

These and other requirements generally are becoming increasingly strict. The failure to comply with the requirements, many of which may be applied retroactively, may result in:
-    administrative, civil, and criminal penalties;
-    revocation of permits to conduct business; and
-    corrective action orders, including orders to investigate and/or clean up contamination.

Failure on our part to comply with applicable health, safety, and environmental laws and regulations or costs arising from regulatory compliance, including compliance with changes in or expansion of applicable regulatory requirements, could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition.

Existing or future laws, regulations, treaties, or international agreements related to greenhouse gases, climate change, or alternative energy sources could have a negative impact on our business and may result in additional compliance obligations that could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition.
Changes in or the adoption or enactment of laws, regulations, treaties or international agreements related to greenhouse gases, climate change, or alternative energy sources, including changes that may make it more expensive to explore for and produce oil and natural gas, may negatively impact demand for our services and products. For example, oil and natural gas exploration and production may decline as a result of environmental requirements, including land use policies responsive to environmental concerns. State, national, and international governments and agencies in areas in which we conduct business continue to evaluate, and in some instances adopt, climate-related legislation and other regulatory initiatives that would restrict emissions of greenhouse gases.

For example, The President of the United States has issued Executive Orders and other directives seeking to adopt new regulations and policies to address climate change and to suspend, revise, or rescind prior agency actions that the administration identified as conflicting with its climate policies. These include Executive Orders requiring a review of current U.S. federal lands leasing and permitting practices, as well as a temporary halt of new leasing of U.S. federal lands and offshore waters available for oil and gas exploration. Also, in January 2024, the President of the United States paused approvals for pending and future applications to export liquified natural gas from new projects. During this pause, the Department of Energy will conduct a review of the economic and environmental impacts of projects seeking approval to export LNG to Europe and Asia. Changes and uncertainties resulting from proposed regulations and its actions with respect to leasing and other actions could have a negative effect on exploration and production of oil and natural gas and, consequently, negatively impact the demand for our products and services.

HAL 2023 FORM 10-K | 14

Item 1(a) | Risk Factors
In February 2021, the United States formally re-joined the Paris Agreement. The Paris Agreement requires countries to review and “represent a progression” in their intended nationally determined contributions, which set greenhouse gases emission reduction goals, every five years. The United States Environmental Protection Agency has proposed strict new methane emission regulations for certain oil and gas facilities. The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 establishes a charge on methane emissions above certain limits from the same facilities. Though we are closely following developments in this area and changes in the regulatory landscape in the United States, we cannot predict how or when those changes may ultimately impact our business. Because our business depends on the level of activity in the oil and natural gas industry, existing or future laws, regulations, treaties, or international agreements related to greenhouse gases or climate change, including incentives to conserve energy or use alternative energy sources, may reduce demand for oil and natural gas and could have a negative impact on our business. Likewise, such restrictions may result in additional compliance obligations with respect to the release, capture, sequestration, and use of carbon dioxide. The efforts we have taken, and may undertake in the future, to respond to these evolving or new regulations and to environmental initiatives of customers, investors, and others may increase our costs. These and other environmental requirements could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition.

We could be subject to changes in our tax rates, the adoption of new tax legislation, tax audits, or exposure to additional tax liabilities that could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition.
We are subject to taxes in the U.S. and numerous jurisdictions where we operate and our subsidiaries are organized. Due to economic and political conditions, tax rates in the U.S. and other jurisdictions may be subject to significant change. Our tax returns are subject to examination by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and other tax authorities and governmental bodies. We regularly assess the likelihood of an adverse outcome resulting from these examinations to determine the adequacy of our provision for taxes.

Our U.S. federal income tax filings for tax years 2016 through 2022 are currently under review or remain open for review by the IRS. As of December 31, 2023, the primary unresolved issue for the IRS audit for 2016 relates to the classification of the $3.5 billion ordinary deduction that we claimed for the termination fee we paid to Baker Hughes in the second quarter of 2016 for which we received a Notice of Proposed Adjustment (NOPA) from the IRS on September 28, 2023. In December 2023, we initiated the IRS administrative appeals process and we do not expect a final resolution of the NOPA in the next 12 months. There can be no assurance as to the outcome of the NOPA or other tax examinations and audits.

Adverse outcomes resulting from examinations of our tax returns, including the NOPA, an increase in tax rates in a jurisdiction where we generate substantial income, particularly in the U.S., or changes in our ability to realize our deferred tax assets could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition.

Our operations are subject to political and economic instability and risk of government actions that could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition.
We are exposed to risks inherent in doing business in each of the countries and regions in which we operate. Our operations are subject to various risks unique to each country and region that could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition. With respect to any particular country or region, these risks may include:
-    political and economic instability, including:
civil unrest, acts of terrorism, war, and other armed conflict, such as the ongoing actions in Ukraine, Israel, and the broader Middle East;
inflation; and
currency fluctuations, devaluations, and conversion restrictions; and
-    governmental actions that may:
result in expropriation and nationalization of our assets in that country;
result in confiscatory taxation or other adverse tax policies;
limit or disrupt markets or our customers and our operations, restrict payments, or limit the movement of funds;
impose sanctions on our ability to conduct business with certain customers or persons;
result in the deprivation of contract rights; and
result in the inability to obtain or retain licenses required for operation.
HAL 2023 FORM 10-K | 15

Item 1(a) | Risk Factors
For example, due to the unsettled political conditions in many oil-producing countries and regions, our operations, revenue, and profits are subject to the adverse consequences of war, terrorism, civil unrest, strikes, currency controls, and governmental actions. These, and other risks described above, could result in the loss of our personnel or assets, cause us to evacuate our personnel from certain countries, cause us to increase spending on security worldwide, cause us to cease operating in certain countries, cause disruption of shipping and supply chain operations, disrupt financial and commercial markets, including the supply of and pricing for oil and natural gas, and generate greater political and economic instability in some of the geographic areas in which we operate. Areas where we operate that have significant risk include, but are not limited to: the Middle East, North Africa, Angola, Argentina, Azerbaijan, Brazil, Indonesia, Kazakhstan, Mexico, Mozambique, Nigeria, Papua New Guinea, and Ukraine. In addition, any possible reprisals as a consequence of military or other action, such as acts of terrorism in the United States or elsewhere, could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition.

General Risk Factors

Our operations are subject to cyberattacks that could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition.
We are increasingly dependent on digital technologies and services to conduct our business. We use these technologies for internal and operational purposes, including data storage, processing, and transmissions, as well as in our interactions with customers and suppliers. Examples of these digital technologies include analytics, automation, and cloud services. Our digital technologies and services, and those of our customers and suppliers, are subject to the risk of cybersecurity incidents and, given the nature of such incidents, some can remain undetected for a period of time despite efforts to detect and respond to them in a timely manner. We routinely monitor our systems for cybersecurity threats and have processes in place to detect and remediate vulnerabilities. Nevertheless, we have experienced occasional cybersecurity incidents and attempted breaches in the past, including attacks resulting from phishing emails and malware infections. We responded to and mitigated the impact of these attacks. Even if we successfully defend our own digital technologies and services, we also rely on our customers and suppliers, with whom we may share data and services, to protect their digital technologies and services from cybersecurity incidents. No unauthorized access to material financial, technical, or customer data occurred as a result of cybersecurity attacks against us and none of the attacks mentioned above had a material adverse effect on our business, operations, reputation, or consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial condition.

If our systems, or our customers or suppliers systems, for protecting against cybersecurity incidents prove not to be sufficient, we could be adversely affected by, among other things: loss of or damage to intellectual property, proprietary or confidential information, or customer, supplier, or employee data; interruption of our business operations; and increased costs required to prevent, respond to, or mitigate cybersecurity incidents. These risks could harm our reputation and our relationships with our customers, employees, suppliers and other third parties, and may result in claims against us. In addition, laws and regulations governing cybersecurity incidents, data privacy, and the unauthorized disclosure of confidential or protected information pose increasingly complex compliance challenges, and failure to comply with these laws could result in penalties and legal liability. These risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations and consolidated financial condition.

Our ability to declare and pay dividends and repurchase shares is subject to certain considerations and we may be unable to meet our capital return framework goal of returning at least 50% of annual free cash flow to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases, which could decrease expected returns on an investment in our stock.
Our capital return framework includes a goal of returning at least 50% of annual free cash flow (cash flow from operations less capital expenditures plus proceeds from sales of property, plant, and equipment) to our shareholders through dividends and share repurchases. Dividends and share repurchases are authorized and determined by our Board of Directors at its sole discretion and depend upon a number of factors, including our financial results, cash requirements, and future prospects, as well as such other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors. We can provide no assurance that we will pay dividends or make share repurchases in accordance with our capital return framework goal or at all. Any elimination of, or downward revision in, our dividend payout or share repurchase program could have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.

HAL 2023 FORM 10-K | 16

Item 1(a) | Risk Factors
Meeting our capital return framework goal requires us to generate consistent free cash flow and have available capital in the years ahead in an amount sufficient to enable us to continue investing in organic and inorganic growth as well as to return a significant portion of the cash generated to shareholders in the form of dividends and share repurchases. Also, our cash flow fluctuates over the course of the year, so, although our goal is to return at least 50% of annual free cash flow to shareholders, that is an average over a year and the dividends paid, the number of shares repurchased, and the amount of free cash flow returned in any quarter during the year will vary and may be more or less than 50%. We may not meet this goal if we use our available cash to satisfy other priorities, if we have insufficient funds available to pay dividends and to repurchase shares, or if our Board of Directors determines to change or discontinue dividend payments or share repurchases.

We are subject to foreign currency exchange risks and limitations on our ability to reinvest earnings from operations in one country to fund the capital needs of our operations in other countries or to repatriate assets from some countries.
A sizable portion of our consolidated revenue and consolidated operating expenses is in foreign currencies. As a result, we are subject to significant risks, including:
-    foreign currency exchange risks resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and the implementation of exchange controls; and
-    limitations on our ability to reinvest earnings from operations in one country to fund the capital needs of our operations in other countries.

As an example, we conduct business in countries that have restricted or limited trading markets for their local currencies and restrict or limit cash repatriation. We may accumulate cash in those geographies, but we may be limited in our ability to convert our profits into United States dollars or to repatriate the profits from those countries. During 2023, we experienced these conditions in Argentina and though we have been able to develop processes to repatriate cash when we believe it is appropriate to do so, we have incurred losses from devaluation of the local currency and from repatriating cash. We expect restrictions on currency repatriation to continue in Argentina during 2024.

If we lose one or more of our significant customers or if our customers delay paying or fail to pay a significant amount of our outstanding receivables, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition.
We have a number of significant customers. While no single customer represented more than 10% of consolidated revenue in any period presented, the loss of one or more significant customers could have a material adverse effect on our business and our consolidated results of operations.

In most cases, we bill our customers for our services in arrears and are, therefore, subject to our customers delaying or failing to pay our invoices. We may experience increased delays and failures due to, among other reasons, a reduction in our customers’ cash flow from operations and their access to the credit markets, particularly in weak economic or commodity price environments. If our customers delay paying or fail to pay us a significant amount of our outstanding receivables, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations and consolidated financial condition.

Our acquisitions, dispositions and investments may not result in anticipated benefits and may present risks not originally contemplated, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition.
We continually seek opportunities to maximize efficiency and value through various transactions, including purchases or sales of assets, businesses, investments, or joint venture interests. These transactions are intended to (but may not) result in the realization of savings, the creation of efficiencies, the offering of new products or services, the generation of cash or income, or the reduction of risk. Acquisition transactions may use cash on hand or be financed by additional borrowings or by the issuance of our common stock. These transactions may also adversely affect our business, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated financial condition.
These transactions also involve risks, and we cannot ensure that:
-    any acquisitions we attempt will be completed on the terms announced, or at all;
-    any acquisitions would result in an increase in income or provide an adequate return of capital or other anticipated benefits;
-    any acquisitions would be successfully integrated into our operations and internal controls;
-    the due diligence conducted prior to an acquisition would uncover situations that could result in financial or legal exposure, including under the FCPA, or that we will appropriately quantify the exposure from known risks;
-    any disposition would not result in decreased earnings, revenue, or cash flow;
HAL 2023 FORM 10-K | 17

Item 1(a) | Risk Factors
-    use of cash for acquisitions would not adversely affect our cash available for capital expenditures and other uses; or
-    any dispositions, investments, or acquisitions, including integration efforts, would not divert management resources.

Actions of and disputes with our joint venture partners could have a material adverse effect on the business and results of operations of our joint ventures and, in turn, our business and consolidated results of operations.
We conduct some operations through joint ventures in which unaffiliated third parties may control the operations of the joint venture or we may share control. As with any joint venture arrangement, differences in views among the joint venture participants may result in delayed decisions, the joint venture operating in a manner that is contrary to our preference, or failures to agree on major issues. We also cannot control the actions of our joint venture partners, including any violation of law, nonperformance, or default by, or bankruptcy of our joint venture partners. These factors could have a material adverse effect on the business and results of operations of our joint ventures and, in turn, our business and consolidated results of operations.

The loss or unavailability of any of our executive officers or other key employees could have a material adverse effect on our business.
We depend greatly on the efforts of our executive officers and other key employees to manage our operations. The loss or unavailability of any of our executive officers or other key employees could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Item 1(c). Cybersecurity.
We maintain a cyber risk management program designed to identify, assess, manage, mitigate, and respond to cybersecurity threats. An analysis of the impact, likelihood, and management preparedness of cybersecurity threats to our strategic priorities is integrated into our enterprise risk management program and enterprise risk assessment process. This provides cross-functional and geographical visibility, as well as executive leadership oversight, to address and mitigate associated risks. We engage our internal IT audit group to audit our information security programs, and the results are reported to our executive management and the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. We also engage third party firms to identify, assess, and manage cybersecurity risks in alignment with cybersecurity standards, including the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cyber Security Framework, NIST 800-53, NIST 800-82, and International Electrotechnical Commission 62443.

In managing material risks from cybersecurity threats, we require that a security and technical architecture review is conducted for all new software and applications, and for all changes to the underlying information technology (IT) infrastructure that manages, processes, stores, or transmits our data or data of our customers, vendors, suppliers, joint ventures, or employees. Any deviations from our IT security policies and standards are assessed by our IT Security Governance team. Any critical and high-risk levels that are identified are then documented and reported to relevant key stakeholders.

Our policies and procedures also address the oversight, identification, and mitigation of cybersecurity risks associated with our use of third-party service providers. Our policy requires that each third-party service provider go through a mandatory IT Security Governance review and obtain formal approval by our IT Security Governance group before it can be used.

We have an Incident Response Plan that defines and documents procedures for assessing, identifying, and managing a cybersecurity incident. This plan requires an Incident Manager to determine whether a cybersecurity incident has occurred and to communicate such findings to the Incident Response Team. In the event there is a cyber security incident, the Incident Manager and the Incident Response Team will assess the cybersecurity incident’s impact as the basis for assigning a preliminary severity rating. The Incident Manager then provides the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) with a summary and preliminary severity rating and the CISO subsequently notifies the Chief Information Officer (CIO) as appropriate. Cyber Incident Response Leadership, which is comprised of the CIO, CISO, and Incident Manager, assesses situational information and business impact to confirm the preliminary severity rating assessment. The CIO and CISO are responsible for communicating incidents to other members of management as appropriate. Were a cybersecurity incident to occur that was determined to be material by our management and Cyber Incident Response Leadership, they would notify our Board of Directors. Should any incidents occur that have a preliminary severity rating of high or critical, our Cyber Incident Response Leadership would confer with our Cybersecurity Disclosure Committee to determine whether to report the cybersecurity incident in our public filings.

Aside from more immediate reporting of material incidents to our Board of Directors as described above, our CISO provides our Board of Directors an update on cybersecurity during each of its quarterly meetings. This update includes metrics on the effectiveness of technical and human security controls, cybersecurity training program compliance, internal and third-party cybersecurity incidents, and cybersecurity risks. In addition, our Audit Committee receives a detailed update annually from the CIO and CISO, which includes in-depth updates on our cybersecurity program and strategy including cybersecurity risks.

The CIO leads all components of our IT functions.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) should be read in conjunction with the consolidated and combined financial statements included in "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" contained herein.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

Market conditions
Since early 2020, world-wide oil and natural gas supply and demand imbalances and related volatility of oil and natural gas prices (including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic) have resulted in dramatic fluctuations in oil and natural gas markets. The volatility continued in 2023 as markets were impacted by central bank rate hikes, macroeconomic uncertainty, non-OPEC supply growth, and renewed geopolitical unrest in the Middle East. In the U.S., oil and natural gas production in 2023 remained elevated, despite a generally declining rig count, as a result of the industry's focus on efficiencies, higher service intensity, and high-quality acreage. Lower commodity pricing and U.S. land rig counts generally contributed to softness in the market for energy products and services in North America, particularly in natural gas basins during the second half of 2023. Conversely, the international rig count showed steady growth in 2023 largely driven by national oil companies (NOCs) in the Middle East/Asia and Africa.

Globally, we continue to be impacted by increased supply chain lead times for the supply of select raw materials. We monitor market trends and work to mitigate cost impacts through economies of scale in global procurement, technology modifications, and efficient sourcing practices. Also, while we have been impacted by inflationary cost increases, primarily related to chemicals, cement, and logistics costs, we generally try to pass much of those increases on to our customers and we believe we have effective solutions to minimize their operational impact.

Financial results
The following graph illustrates our revenue and operating margins for each operating segment over the past three years.
2541
During 2023, we generated total company revenue of $23.0 billion, a 13% increase from the $20.3 billion of revenue generated in 2022, with our Completion and Production (C&P) segment revenue increasing by 18% and our Drilling and Evaluation (D&E) segment revenue increasing by 7%. We reported total company operating income of approximately $4.1 billion in 2023, compared to operating income of $2.7 billion in 2022. These increases were driven by increased demand for our products and services in all four of our geographic regions.

Our North America revenue increased 9% in 2023 compared to 2022, despite a 4% decrease in average rig count from 2022, resulting from higher pressure pumping and artificial lift activity in North America land, increased completion tool sales in the Gulf of Mexico, and improved fluid and wireline services across the region.

Internationally, revenue improved 17% in 2023 compared to 2022, primarily driven by higher activity for drilling and completions related services in Latin America, Africa, and the Middle East/Asia, which was partially offset by our exit from Russia in the third quarter of 2022. The international average rig count for 2023 increased 11% compared to 2022.

Item 7 | Executive Overview
Our operating performance and liquidity are described in more detail in “Liquidity and Capital Resources” and “Business Environment and Results of Operations.”

Sustainability and Energy Mix Transition
In the first quarter of 2021, we announced our target to achieve a 40% reduction in our Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2035 from the 2018 baseline. During 2023, we continued to execute on priorities we set up to help us progress toward our 2035 emissions reduction target. As our customers have begun to invest more in emissions reduction, we have developed or are developing solutions intended to reduce our own carbon footprint while advancing our customers’ decarbonization efforts. As the energy mix transition unfolds, we seek to apply our expertise and products and services across different parts of the energy value chain. We have also applied our experience and resources in sectors adjacent to our traditional oilfield services space, including carbon capture, utilization, and storage, hydrogen, and geothermal. Finally, we will continue to focus on accelerating the success of clean tech start-ups via Halliburton Labs. As of December 31, 2023, Halliburton Labs had 32 participating companies and alumni. Halliburton Labs allows us to participate in the energy mix transition at relatively low risk by investing our expertise, resources, and team without a significant outlay of capital.

Our sustainability efforts were recognized in 2023 as we were named to the Dow Jones Sustainability North America Index for the third consecutive year. The DJSI assesses the sustainability performances of companies using a transparent, rules-based process based on the annual S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment (CSA), among its industry peers.

Additionally, we published our 2022 Annual and Sustainability Report (ASR) in April of 2023, which details our strategy and progress on sustainability issues, as well as our efforts on increased environmental reporting transparency, including conducting a climate-risk scenario analysis. Information on our website, including the ASR, is not incorporated by reference into this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 7 | Liquidity and Capital Resources
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We had $2.3 billion of cash and equivalents as of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Significant sources and uses of cash in 2023
Sources of cash:
Cash flows from operating activities were $3.5 billion. Working capital, which consists of receivables, inventories, and accounts payable, collectively had a negative impact of $511 million, primarily due to increased receivables and inventory.
Uses of cash:
Capital expenditures were $1.4 billion.
We repurchased 22.7 million shares of our common stock for $800 million.
We paid $576 million of dividends to our shareholders.
We repurchased $300 million aggregate principal amounts of various series of our outstanding debt.

Future sources and uses of cash
We manufacture most of our own equipment, which provides us with some flexibility to increase or decrease our capital expenditures based on market conditions. We currently expect capital spending for 2024 to be approximately 6% of revenue. We believe this level of spend will allow us to invest in our key strategic technologies, including the construction and deployment of our Zeus electric fracturing systems in North America, our iStar Intelligent Drilling and Logging Platform, and our iCruise Intelligent Rotary Steerable System. We will continue to maintain capital discipline and monitor the rapidly changing market dynamics, and we may adjust our capital spend accordingly.

In 2024, we expect to pay approximately $518 million for contractual purchase obligations (with another $211 million due through 2026), $397 million of interest on debt, and $391 million under our leasing arrangements. Payments for interest on our debt arrangements are expected to remain relatively flat for the foreseeable future. See Note 6 and Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information on expected future payments under our leasing arrangements and debt maturities.

We are not able to reasonably estimate the timing of cash outflows associated with our uncertain tax positions, in part because we are unable to predict the timing of potential tax settlements with applicable taxing authorities. As of December 31, 2023, we had $268 million of gross unrecognized tax benefits, excluding penalties and interest, of which we estimate $235 million may require us to make a cash payment. We estimate that approximately $158 million of the cash payment will not be settled within the next 12 months.

While we maintain focus on liquidity and debt reduction, we are also focused on providing cash returns to our shareholders. In January of 2023, our Board approved a capital return framework with a goal of returning at least 50% of our annual free cash flow to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases. We returned $1.4 billion of capital to shareholders in 2023 through buybacks and dividends. During 2023, our quarterly dividend rate was $0.16 per common share, or approximately $144 million in the aggregate. In January 2024, we announced that our Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.17 per common share for the first quarter of 2024, or approximately $152 million in the aggregate.

We may utilize share repurchases as part of our capital return framework. Our Board of Directors has authorized a program to repurchase our common stock from time to time. We repurchased 22.7 million shares of common stock during the year ended December 31, 2023. Approximately $4.1 billion remained authorized for repurchases under our program as of December 31, 2023 and may be used for open market and other share purchases.

During the second quarter of 2023, we began our migration to SAP S4 which we expect to complete by the end of 2025. The migration is estimated to cost approximately $250 million, of which we have incurred $51 million through December 31, 2023. For 2024, we expect to spend approximately $120 million. We believe the new system will enhance visibility to our operations and provide important efficiency benefits, cost savings, and advanced analytics that will benefit us and our customers.

We do not intend to incur additional debt in 2024, as we believe our cash on hand and earnings from operations are sufficient to cover our obligations for the year.

HAL 2023 FORM 10-K | 25

Item 7 | Liquidity and Capital Resources
Other factors affecting liquidity
Financial position in current market. As of December 31, 2023, we had $2.3 billion of cash and equivalents and $3.5 billion of available committed bank credit under a revolving credit facility with an expiration date of April 27, 2027. We believe we have a manageable debt maturity profile, with approximately $472 million coming due beginning in 2025 through 2027. Furthermore, we have no financial covenants or material adverse change provisions in our bank agreements, and our debt maturities extend over a long period of time. We believe our cash on hand, cash flows generated from operations, and our available credit facility provide sufficient liquidity to address the challenges and opportunities of the current market and our expected global cash needs for 2024, including capital expenditures, working capital investments, shareholder returns, if any, and debt repurchases, if any, and scheduled interest and principal payments.

Guarantee agreements. In the normal course of business, we have agreements with financial institutions under which approximately $2.6 billion letters of credit, bank guarantees, or surety bonds were outstanding as of December 31, 2023. Some of the outstanding letters of credit have triggering events that would entitle a bank to require cash collateralization, however, none of these triggering events have occurred. As of December 31, 2023, we had no material off-balance sheet liabilities and were not required to make any material cash distributions to our unconsolidated subsidiaries.

During the fourth quarter of 2023, we entered into a credit default swap (“CDS”) with a third-party financial institution. The notional amount of the CDS, which was $300 million at the end of January 2024, will reduce on a monthly basis over its 26-month term. The CDS relates to a borrowing provided by the financial institution to one of our primary customers in Mexico, a portion of the proceeds of which was utilized by this customer to pay certain of our outstanding receivables.

Credit ratings. Our credit ratings with Standard & Poor’s (S&P) remained BBB+ for our long-term debt and A-2 for our short-term debt, with an upgrade to positive outlook from stable outlook in November 2023. During the third quarter of 2023, our long-term debt rating with Moody's Investors Service (Moody's) was upgraded to A3 from Baa1 and the short-term debt rating remained P-2, with a stable outlook. As of the end of the year our long-term debt rating with Moody's remained A3 and short-term debt rating remained P-2, with a stable outlook.

Customer receivables. In line with industry practice, we bill our customers for our services in arrears and are, therefore, subject to our customers delaying or failing to pay our invoices. In weak economic environments, we may experience increased delays and failures to pay our invoices due to, among other reasons, a reduction in our customers’ cash flow from operations and their access to the credit markets, as well as unsettled political conditions.

Receivables from our primary customer in Mexico accounted for approximately 6% of our total receivables as of December 31, 2023. While we have experienced payment delays from our primary customer in Mexico, these amounts are not in dispute and we have not historically had, and we do not expect to have, any material write-offs due to collectability of receivables from this customer.

Item 7 | Business Environment and Results of Operations
BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

We operate in more than 70 countries throughout the world to provide a comprehensive range of services and products to the energy industry. Our revenue is generated from the sale of services and products to major, national, and independent oil and natural gas companies worldwide. The industry we serve is highly competitive with many substantial competitors in each segment of our business. In 2023, 2022, and 2021, based on the location of services provided and products sold, 44%, 45%, and 40%, respectively, of our consolidated revenue was from the United States. No other country accounted for more than 10% of our revenue.

Activity within our business segments is significantly impacted by spending on upstream exploration, development, and production programs by our customers. Also impacting our activity is the status of the global economy, which impacts oil and natural gas consumption.

Some of the more significant determinants of current and future spending levels of our customers are oil and natural gas prices and our customers' expectations about future prices, global oil supply and demand, completions intensity, the world economy, the availability of capital, government regulation, and global stability, which together drive worldwide drilling and completions activity. Lower oil and natural gas prices usually translate into lower exploration and production budgets and lower rig count, while the opposite is usually true for higher oil and natural gas prices. Our financial performance is therefore significantly affected by oil and natural gas prices and worldwide rig activity, which are summarized in the tables below.

The table below shows the average prices for West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil, United Kingdom Brent crude oil, and Henry Hub natural gas.

Item 7 | Business Environment and Results of Operations
Business outlook
Looking ahead, we expect oil and natural gas demand to continue to grow over the next several years as easing inflationary pressures across the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries increase the likelihood for central bank rate cuts, abating fears of a macroeconomic slowdown. We believe long-term expansion of the global economy will continue to increase demands on all forms of energy. We expect oil and natural gas remains a critical component of the global energy mix. The International Energy Agency's December 2023 "Oil Market Report" forecasts 2024 global oil demand to reach 102.7 million barrels per day, an increase of 1% from 2023.

We believe that oil demand growth will be driven by resilient global economic growth and increases in transportation activity. In addition, we think oil supply dynamics have fundamentally changed due to, among other things, investor return requirements, and regulatory initiatives adverse to oil and natural gas exploration and production and that promote alternative energy, any of which could limit supply growth. We believe that despite the changes in oil supply dynamics, increased investment in existing and new sources of production is the only solution to increase supply and that production will be needed from conventional and unconventional, deep-water and shallow-water, and short and long-cycle projects. We expect that increased production requirements will in turn create demand for our products and services.

Internationally, we expect oil and natural gas exploration and production activity to grow during 2024. Although we anticipate regional differences in growth rates for 2024, we believe the Middle East/Asia regions will likely experience the greatest increases in activity, with other regions closely behind. We expect growth in both onshore and offshore markets, as well as services related to carbon capture, utilization, and storage. The “Short Term Energy Outlook” published by the United States Energy Information Administration (EIA) predicts that U.S. oil production will average 13.1 million barrels per day in 2024, an increase of 1% as compared to 2023. As a result, we expect stable exploration and production activity levels in the U.S.

Operating Segments

Completion and Production
Completion and Production revenue was $13.7 billion in 2023, an increase of $2.1 billion, or 18%, compared to 2022. Operating income was $2.8 billion in 2023, a 39% increase from $2.0 billion in 2022. These results were primarily driven by higher pressure pumping activity in North America land, as well as improved completion tool sales globally. Partially offsetting these increases was decreased activity in Russia due to our exit from the country.

Drilling and Evaluation
Drilling and Evaluation revenue was $9.3 billion in 2023, an increase of $614 million, or 7%, from 2022. Operating income was $1.5 billion in 2023, an increase of $251 million, or 19%, compared to 2022. These results were primarily attributable to increased fluid services and drilling activity globally and higher wireline activity in the Western Hemisphere, Africa, and the Middle East/Asia. Partially offsetting these increases were decreased activity in Russia due to our exit from the country and lower project management activity in Saudi Arabia.

Geographic Regions

North America
North America revenue was $10.5 billion in 2023, a 9% increase compared to 2022, resulting from improved pressure pumping and artificial lift activity in North America land, increased fluid and wireline services across the region, and higher completion tool sales in the Gulf of Mexico. Partially offsetting these increases were lower drilling-related activity and decreased well intervention services in North America land.



HAL 2023 FORM 10-K | 29

Item 7 | Results of Operations in 2023 Compared to 2022
Latin America
Latin America revenue was $4.0 billion in 2023, a 25% increase compared to 2022, resulting from improvements across multiple product service lines in Brazil, Mexico, and Argentina. Partly offsetting these increases was lower project management activity in the Caribbean, Ecuador, and Colombia.

Europe/Africa/CIS
Europe/Africa/CIS revenue was $2.9 billion in 2023, a 6% increase compared to 2022, resulting from increased activity across multiple product service lines in Africa and higher drilling-related services in Norway. Partially offsetting these increases were the sale of our Russian operations during the third quarter of 2022, as well as decreased wireline activity, lower completion tool sales and decreased testing services in Norway, and lower drilling-related activity and decreased testing services in Algeria.

Middle East/Asia
Middle East/Asia revenue was $5.7 billion in 2023, an 18% increase compared to 2022, resulting from increased activity across multiple product service lines in Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Indonesia, and Malaysia, and higher drilling services and improved wireline activity in Thailand. Partially offsetting these improvements were lower project management activity in Saudi Arabia and lower stimulation activity and decreased well intervention services in Kuwait.

Other Operating Items

Impairments and other charges. During 2023, there were no amounts recorded in impairment and other charges. During 2022, we recognized $366 million of charges, primarily related to a $344 million write down of all our net assets in Russia as a result of our decision to sell our Russia operations due to the sanctions enacted against Russia arising from the conflict in Ukraine. See Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements for further discussion on these charges.

SAP S4 Upgrade Expense. As previously mentioned, in the second quarter of 2023 we began our migration to SAP S4, which we expect to complete by the end of 2025. In 2023, we recognized $51 million of expense on our SAP S4 migration.

Nonoperating Items

Argentina Blue Chip Swap. The Central Bank of Argentina maintains currency controls that limit our ability to access U.S. dollars in Argentina and remit cash from our Argentine operations. The execution of certain trades known as Blue Chip Swaps, effectively results in a parallel U.S. dollar exchange rate. This parallel rate, which cannot be used as the basis to remeasure our net monetary assets in U.S. dollars under U.S. GAAP, was 20% higher than Argentina's official exchange rate at December 31, 2023. For the year ended December 31, 2023, we entered into Blue Chip Swap transactions, which resulted in a $110 million pre-tax loss on investment.

Argentina Currency Impact. Argentina devalued its peso by more than 50% during December 2023. Consequently, we incurred a loss of $131 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 due to the devaluation of the currency in Argentina.

Loss on early extinguishment of debt. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we recorded a $42 million loss on the early redemption of $600 million aggregate principal amount of our 3.8% senior notes due November 2025, which included premiums and unamortized expenses. See Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements for further information.

Income tax provision. During the year ended December 31, 2023, we recorded a total income tax provision of $701 million on pre-tax income of $3.4 billion, resulting in an effective tax rate of 20.8%. The effective tax rate for 2023 was primarily impacted by our geographic mix of earnings, tax adjustments related to the reassessment of prior year tax accruals, and changes of valuation allowance on some of our deferred tax assets. During 2022, we recorded a total income tax provision of $515 million on pre-tax income of $2.1 billion, resulting in an effective tax rate of 24.4%. See Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements for significant drivers of these tax provisions.

Item 7 | Results of Operations in 2023 Compared to 2022

Pillar Two. The OECD recently enacted model rules for a new global minimum tax framework, also known as Pillar Two, and certain governments globally have enacted, or are in the process of enacting, legislation considering these model rules. We have considered the possible implication of the legislation passed or in consideration of being passed, and we do not believe these rules will have a material impact on our taxes in the near future.

Internal Revenue Service Notice of Proposed Adjustment. We are subject to taxes in the United States and in numerous jurisdictions where we operate or where our subsidiaries are organized. Our tax returns are routinely subject to examination by the taxing authorities in the jurisdictions where we file tax returns. In most cases we are no longer subject to examination by tax authorities for years before 2012. The only significant operating jurisdiction that has tax filings under review or subject to examination by the tax authorities is the United States. Our United States federal income tax filings for tax years 2016 through 2022, including carry back of 2016 net operating losses to 2014, are currently under review or remain open for review by the Internal Revenue Service (the IRS).

On September 28, 2023, we received a Notice of Proposed Adjustment (NOPA) from the IRS covering our 2016 US tax return. The NOPA proposed an adjustment to reclassify approximately 95% of the $3.5 billion termination fee paid to Baker Hughes in 2016 from an ordinary expense deduction to a capital loss. The termination fee was paid to Baker Hughes under the merger agreement after antitrust regulators in multiple jurisdictions failed to approve our proposed merger. It is common commercial practice to include a termination fee in a merger agreement to compensate the target for damages incurred when the acquisition does not go forward. The IRS’s long-understood position at the time of the payment had been to treat such payments as an ordinary and necessary business expense. We strongly disagree with the proposed adjustment on both a factual and legal basis, and we plan to vigorously contest it.

We expect that resolving this dispute will take substantial time. In December 2023, we initiated the IRS administrative appeals process, which may take more than 12 months to complete. Failing a resolution through that process, the matter would ultimately be resolved by the United States federal courts.

We regularly assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from tax examinations to determine the adequacy of our tax reserves, and we believe our income tax reserves are appropriately provided for all open tax years. We cannot assure you that the matter will be determined in our favor or against us, and if the matter is ultimately determined unfavorably to us, it could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and cash flows. Based on tax attributes currently available, we estimate that, should the IRS's position prevail through its appellate process and subsequent litigation, the proposed adjustment could result in cash taxes due of approximately $650 million (plus interest thereon in the case of amounts due for previous tax years). Our estimates are calculated under current tax law and on the bases of our assumptions regarding taxable income and loss and other tax attributes over the relevant period, which law could change and which assumptions could and likely will differ materially from actual results. In any event, no payment of any additional tax is currently required, nor do we anticipate that the proposed adjustment would materially and adversely impact our ability to meet our expected uses of cash, including future capital expenditures, working capital investments, and scheduled debt repayments, or our ability to return cash to shareholders, even if a final determination of the matter is reached that is adverse to us.

Item 7 | Critical Accounting Estimates
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements requires the use of judgments and estimates. Our critical accounting policies are described below to provide a better understanding of how we develop our assumptions and judgments about future events and related estimates and how they can impact our financial statements. A critical accounting estimate is one that requires our most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments and assessments and is fundamental to our results of operations. We identified our most critical accounting estimates to be:
-    forecasting our income tax (provision) benefit, including our future ability to utilize foreign tax credits and the realizability of deferred tax assets (including net operating loss carryforwards), and providing for uncertain tax positions;
-    legal and investigation matters;
-    valuations of long-lived assets, including intangible assets and goodwill; and
-    allowance for credit losses.

We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable according to the current facts and circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. We believe the following are the critical accounting policies used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements, as well as the significant estimates and judgments affecting the application of these policies. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this report.

Income tax accounting
We recognize the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and use an asset and liability approach in recognizing the amount of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns. We apply the following basic principles in accounting for our income taxes:
-    a current tax liability or asset is recognized for the estimated taxes payable or refundable on tax returns for the current year;
-    a deferred tax liability or asset is recognized for the estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences and carryforwards;
-    the measurement of current and deferred tax liabilities and assets is based on provisions of the enacted tax law, and the effects of potential future changes in tax laws or rates are not considered; and
-    the value of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by the amount of any tax benefits that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized.

We determine deferred taxes separately for each tax-paying component (an entity or a group of entities that is consolidated for tax purposes) in each tax jurisdiction. That determination includes the following procedures:
-    identifying the types and amounts of existing temporary differences;
-    measuring the total deferred tax liability for taxable temporary differences using the applicable tax rate;
-    measuring the total deferred tax asset for deductible temporary differences and operating loss carryforwards using the applicable tax rate;
-    measuring the deferred tax assets for each type of tax credit carryforward; and
-    reducing the deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance if, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Our methodology for recording income taxes requires a significant amount of judgment and the use of assumptions and estimates. Additionally, we use forecasts of certain tax elements, such as taxable income and foreign tax credit utilization, as well as evaluate the feasibility of implementing tax planning strategies. Given the inherent uncertainty involved with the use of such variables, there can be significant variation between anticipated and actual results that could have a material impact on our income tax accounts related to continuing operations.

HAL 2023 FORM 10-K | 33

Item 7 | Critical Accounting Estimates
We have operations in more than 70 countries. Consequently, we are subject to the jurisdiction of a significant number of taxing authorities. The income earned in these various jurisdictions is taxed on differing bases, including net income actually earned, net income deemed earned, and revenue-based tax withholding. Our tax filings are routinely examined in the normal course of business by tax authorities. The final determination of our income tax liabilities involves the interpretation of local tax laws, tax treaties and related authorities in each jurisdiction, as well as the significant use of estimates and assumptions regarding the scope of future operations and results achieved, the timing and nature of income earned and expenditures incurred. The final determination of tax audits or changes in the operating environment, including changes in tax law and currency/repatriation controls, could impact the determination of our income tax liabilities for a tax year and have an adverse effect on our financial statements. For example, we received a NOPA from the IRS on September 28, 2023. See "Managements's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Nonoperating Items, Internal Revenue Service Notice of Proposed Adjustment" and Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements for further information.

Tax filings of our subsidiaries, unconsolidated affiliates and related entities are routinely examined in the normal course of business by tax authorities. These examinations may result in assessments of additional taxes, which we work to resolve with the tax authorities and through the judicial process. Predicting the outcome of disputed assessments involves some uncertainty. Factors such as the availability of settlement procedures, willingness of tax authorities to negotiate, and the operation and impartiality of judicial systems vary across the different tax jurisdictions and may significantly influence the ultimate outcome. We review the facts for each assessment, and then utilize assumptions and estimates to determine the most likely outcome and provide taxes, interest, and penalties, as needed based on this outcome. We provide for uncertain tax positions pursuant to current accounting standards, which prescribe a minimum recognition threshold and measurement methodology that a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. The standards also provide guidance for derecognition classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.

Legal and investigation matters
As discussed in Note 11 of our consolidated financial statements, we are subject to various legal and investigation matters arising in the ordinary course of business. As of December 31, 2023, we have accrued an estimate of the probable and estimable costs for the resolution of some of our legal and investigation matters, which is not material to our consolidated financial statements. For other matters for which the liability is not probable and reasonably estimable, we have not accrued any amounts. Attorneys in our legal department monitor and manage all claims filed against us and review all pending investigations. Generally, the estimate of probable costs related to these matters is developed in consultation with internal and outside legal counsel representing us. Our estimates are based upon an analysis of potential results, assuming a combination of litigation and settlement strategies. The accuracy of these estimates is impacted by, among other things, the complexity of the issues and the amount of due diligence we have been able to perform. We attempt to resolve these matters through settlements, mediation, and arbitration proceedings when possible. If the actual settlement costs, final judgments, or fines, after appeals, differ from our estimates, there may be a material adverse effect on our future financial results. We have in the past recorded significant adjustments to our initial estimates of these types of contingencies.

Value of long-lived assets, including intangible assets and goodwill
We carry a variety of long-lived assets on our balance sheet including property, plant, and equipment, goodwill, and other intangibles. Impairment is the condition that exists when the carrying amount of a long-lived asset exceeds its fair value, and any impairment charge that we record reduces our operating income. Goodwill is the excess of the cost of an acquired entity over the net of the amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed. We conduct impairment tests on goodwill annually, during the third quarter, or more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate an impairment may exist. We conduct impairment tests on long-lived assets, other than goodwill, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

When conducting an impairment test on long-lived assets, other than goodwill, we first group individual assets based on the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows from other assets. This requires some judgment. We then compare estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset group to its carrying amount. If the undiscounted cash flows are less than the asset group’s carrying amount, we then determine the asset group's fair value by using a discounted cash flow analysis. This analysis is based on estimates such as management’s short-term and long-term forecast of operating performance, including revenue growth rates and expected profitability margins, estimates of the remaining useful life and service potential of the assets within the asset group, and a discount rate based on our weighted average cost of capital. An impairment loss is measured and recorded as the amount by which the asset group's carrying amount exceeds its fair value. See Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements for further discussion of impairments and other charges.

HAL 2023 FORM 10-K | 34

Item 7 | Critical Accounting Estimates
We perform our goodwill impairment assessment for each reporting unit, which is the same as our reportable segments, the Completion and Production division and the Drilling and Evaluation division, comparing the estimated fair value of each reporting unit to the reporting unit’s carrying value, including goodwill. We estimate the fair value for each reporting unit using a discounted cash flow analysis based on management’s short-term and long-term forecast of operating performance. This analysis includes significant assumptions regarding discount rates, revenue growth rates, expected profitability margins, forecasted capital expenditures, and the timing of expected future cash flows based on market conditions. If the estimated fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is not considered impaired. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, an impairment loss is measured and recorded.

The impairment assessments discussed above incorporate inherent uncertainties, including projected commodity pricing, supply and demand for our services, and future market conditions, which are difficult to predict in volatile economic environments and could result in impairment charges in future periods if actual results materially differ from the estimated assumptions utilized in our forecasts. If market conditions deteriorate, including crude oil prices significantly declining and remaining at low levels for a sustained period of time, we could be required to record additional impairments of the carrying value of our long-lived assets in the future which could have a material adverse impact on our operating results. See Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements for our accounting policies related to long-lived assets.

Allowance for credit losses
We evaluate our global accounts receivable through a continuous process of assessing our portfolio on an individual customer and overall basis. This process consists of a thorough review of historical collection experience, current aging status of the customer accounts, financial condition of our customers, and whether the receivables involve retainages. We also consider the economic environment of our customers, both from a marketplace and geographic perspective, in evaluating the need for an allowance. Based on our review of these factors, we establish or adjust allowances for specific customers. This process involves judgment and estimation, and frequently involves significant dollar amounts. Accordingly, our results of operations can be affected by adjustments to the allowance due to actual write-offs that differ from estimated amounts.

At December 31, 2023, our allowance for credit losses totaled $742 million, or 13.9% of notes and accounts receivable before the allowance. At December 31, 2022, our allowance for credit losses totaled $731 million, or 14.7% of notes and accounts receivable before the allowance. The allowance for credit losses in both years is primarily comprised of accounts receivable from our primary customer in Venezuela. A hypothetical 100 basis point change in our estimate of the collectability of our notes and accounts receivable balance as of December 31, 2023 would have resulted in a $54 million adjustment to 2023 total operating costs and expenses. See Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements for further information.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. We selectively manage these exposures through the use of derivative instruments, including forward foreign exchange contracts, foreign exchange options, and interest rate swaps. The objective of our risk management strategy is to minimize the volatility from fluctuations in foreign currency and interest rates. We do not use derivative instruments for trading purposes. The counterparties to our forward contracts, options, and interest rate swaps are global commercial and investment banks.

We use a sensitivity analysis model to measure the impact of potential adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. With respect to foreign exchange sensitivity, after consideration of the impact from our forward foreign exchange contracts and options, a hypothetical 10% adverse change in the value of all our foreign currency positions relative to the United States dollar as of December 31, 2023 would result in a $85 million, pre-tax loss for our net monetary assets denominated in currencies other than United States dollars. As of December 31, 2023, we did not have any interest rate swaps outstanding and our outstanding debt has fixed interest rates.

There are certain limitations inherent in the sensitivity analysis presented, primarily due to the assumption that exchange rates and interest rates change instantaneously in an equally adverse fashion. In addition, the analyses are unable to reflect the complex market reactions that normally would arise from the market shifts modeled. While this is our best estimate of the impact of the various scenarios, these estimates should not be viewed as forecasts.

For further information regarding foreign currency exchange risk, interest rate risk, and credit risk, see Note 16 to the consolidated financial statements.

MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

The management of Halliburton Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in the Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f).

Internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well designed, has inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting may vary over time.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we conducted an evaluation to assess the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023 based upon criteria set forth in the Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

Based on our assessment, we believe that, as of December 31, 2023, our internal control over financial reporting is effective. The effectiveness of Halliburton’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023 has been audited by KPMG LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report that is included herein.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
Halliburton Company:

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Halliburton Company and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows and shareholders' equity for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2023, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2023, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, and our report dated February 6, 2024 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of a critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Evaluation of the Realizability of Deferred Tax Assets
As discussed in Notes 1 and 12 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the financial statements. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that these items will not be realized, which is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had gross deferred tax assets of $3.6 billion and a related valuation allowance of $0.8 billion.
We identified the evaluation of the realizability of domestic deferred tax assets as a critical audit matter. The evaluation of the realizability of domestic deferred tax assets, specifically related to foreign tax credits, required subjective auditor judgment to assess the forecasts of future taxable income over the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Changes in assumptions regarding forecasted taxable income, specifically revenue growth rates, could have an impact on the Company’s evaluation of the realizability of the domestic deferred tax assets.
HAL 2023 FORM 10-K | 40

The following are the primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter. We evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of certain internal controls related to the critical audit matter. This included controls related to the development of forecasts of future taxable income. We evaluated the assumptions used in the development of forecasts of future taxable income, specifically revenue growth rates, by comparing to historical actuals while considering current and anticipated future commodity prices or market events. We also evaluated the Company’s history of realizing domestic deferred tax assets by evaluating the expiration of foreign tax credits.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm


To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
Halliburton Company:

Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
We have audited Halliburton Company and subsidiaries' (the Company) internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows and shareholders' equity for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2023, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements), and our report dated February 6, 2024 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.
Basis for Opinion
The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

HALLIBURTON COMPANY
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1. Description of Company and Significant Accounting Policies
Description of Company
Halliburton Company is one of the world's largest providers of products and services to the energy industry. Its predecessor was established in 1919 and incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in 1924. We help our customers maximize asset value throughout the lifecycle of the reservoir - from locating hydrocarbons and managing geological data, to drilling and formation evaluation, well construction and completion, and optimizing production throughout the life of the asset. We serve major, national, and independent oil and natural gas companies throughout the world and operate under two divisions, which form the basis for the two operating segments we report, the Completion and Production segment and the Drilling and Evaluation segment.

Use of estimates
Our financial statements are prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles, requiring us to make estimates and assumptions that affect:
-    the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements; and
-    the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.

We believe the most significant estimates and assumptions are associated with the forecasting of our income tax (provision) benefit and the valuation of deferred taxes, legal reserves, long-lived asset valuations, and allowance for credit losses. Ultimate results could differ from our estimates.

Basis of presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our company and all of our subsidiaries that we control or variable interest entities for which we have determined that we are the primary beneficiary. All material intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated. Investments in companies in which we do not have a controlling interest, but over which we do exercise significant influence, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting, unless we elect the fair value option. If we do not have significant influence and the investment has no readily determinable fair value, we elect the measurement alternative. In addition, certain reclassifications of prior period balances have been made to conform to the current period presentation.

Revenue recognition
Our services and products are generally sold based upon purchase orders or contracts with our customers that include fixed or determinable prices but do not include right of return provisions or other significant post-delivery obligations. The vast majority of our service and product contracts are short-term in nature. We recognize revenue based on the transfer of control or our customers' ability to benefit from our services and products in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those services and products. We also assess our customers' ability and intention to pay, which is based on a variety of factors, including our historical payment experience with, and the financial condition of our customers. Rates for services are typically priced on a per day, per meter, per man-hour, or similar basis. See Note 4 for further information on revenue recognition.

Research and development
We maintain an active research and development program. The program improves products, processes, and engineering standards and practices that serve the changing needs of our customers. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and were $408 million in 2023, $345 million in 2022, and $321 million in 2021.

Cash equivalents
We consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost represents invoice or production cost for new items and original cost. Production cost includes material, labor, and manufacturing overhead. Our inventory is recorded on the weighted average cost method. We regularly review inventory quantities on hand and record provisions for excess or obsolete inventory based primarily on historical usage, estimated product demand, and technological developments.

HAL 2023 FORM 10-K | 48

Item 8 | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Allowance for credit losses
We establish an allowance for credit losses through a review of several factors, including historical collection experience, current aging status of the customer accounts, and current financial condition of our customers. Losses are charged against the allowance when the customer accounts are determined to be uncollectible.

Property, plant, and equipment
Other than those assets that have been written down to their fair values due to impairment, property, plant, and equipment are reported at cost less accumulated depreciation, which is generally provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Accelerated depreciation methods are often used for tax purposes, when permitted. Upon sale or retirement of an asset, the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is recognized. Planned major maintenance costs are generally expensed as incurred. Expenditures for additions, modifications, and conversions are capitalized when they increase the value or extend the useful life of the asset.

Goodwill and other intangible assets
We record as goodwill the excess purchase price over the fair value of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business acquisition. Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill are detailed below by reportable segment.

Other12 (12) 
Balance at December 31, 2023:$2,032 $818 $2,850 

The reported amounts of goodwill for each reporting unit are reviewed for impairment on an annual basis, during the third quarter, and more frequently when circumstances indicate an impairment may exist. As a result of our goodwill impairment assessments performed in the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, we determined that the fair value of each reporting unit exceeded its net book value and, therefore, no goodwill impairments were deemed necessary.

We amortize other identifiable intangible assets with a finite life on a straight-line basis over the period which the asset is expected to contribute to our future cash flows, ranging from one year to twenty-eight years. The components of these other intangible assets generally consist of patents, license agreements, non-compete agreements, trademarks, and customer lists and contracts.

Evaluating impairment of long-lived assets
When events or changes in circumstances indicate that long-lived assets other than goodwill may be impaired, an evaluation is performed. For assets classified as held for use, we first group individual assets based on the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows from other assets. We then compare estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset group to its carrying amount. If the asset group's undiscounted cash flows are less than its carrying amount, we then determine the asset group's fair value by using a discounted cash flow analysis and recognize any resulting impairment. When an asset is classified as held for sale, the asset’s book value is evaluated and adjusted to the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. In addition, depreciation and amortization is ceased while it is classified as held for sale. See Note 2 for further information on impairments and other charges.

Income taxes
We recognize the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the year. In addition, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the financial statements or tax returns. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that these items will not be realized.

HAL 2023 FORM 10-K | 49

Item 8 | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not that we will realize the benefits of these deductible differences, net of the existing valuation allowances.

We recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within the provision for income taxes on continuing operations in our consolidated statements of operations.

Derivative instruments
At times, we enter into derivative financial transactions to hedge existing or projected exposures to changing foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. We do not enter into derivative transactions for speculative or trading purposes. We recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are not hedges are adjusted to fair value which are reflected within "Other, net" on our consolidated statements of operations. If the derivative is designated as a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of derivatives are either offset against:
-    the change in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings; or
-    recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings.

The ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value is recognized in earnings. Recognized gains or losses on derivatives entered into to manage foreign currency exchange risk are included in “Other, net” on the consolidated statements of operations. Gains or losses on interest rate derivatives are included in “Interest expense, net.”

Foreign currency translation
Foreign entities whose functional currency is the United States dollar translate monetary assets and liabilities at year-end exchange rates, and nonmonetary items are translated at historical rates. Revenue and expense transactions are translated at the average rates in effect during the year, except for those expenses associated with nonmonetary balance sheet accounts, which are translated at historical rates. Gains or losses from remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities due to changes in exchange rates are recognized in our consolidated statements of operations in “Other, net” in the year of occurrence.

Stock-based compensation
Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the date of grant, based on the calculated fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over the employee’s service period, which is generally the vesting period of the equity grant. Additionally, compensation cost is recognized based on awards ultimately expected to vest, therefore, we have reduced the cost for estimated forfeitures based on historical forfeiture rates. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised in subsequent periods to reflect actual forfeitures. See Note 14 for additional information related to stock-based compensation.

Note 2. Impairments and Other Charges
The following table presents various pre-tax charges we recorded during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 which are reflected within "Impairments and other charges" on our consolidated statements of operations.

Total impairments and other charges$366 $12 

During the year ended December 31, 2023, there were no amounts recorded in impairment and other charges.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, due to Russia's invasion of Ukraine and resulting sanctions imposed on Russia, we made the decision to sell our Russian operations and completed the sale in the third quarter of 2022. We wrote down the disposal group to fair value less costs to sell, which resulted in a pre-tax charge of $344 million. Of this pre-tax charge, approximately $131 million was attributable to our Completion and Production segment, approximately $178 million was attributable to our Drilling and Evaluation segment, and $35 million was selling costs and was attributable to Corporate and other. We no longer conduct operations in Russia. Additionally, during the first quarter of 2022, we recorded a pre-tax charge of $22 million primarily related to the write down of all our assets in Ukraine. Included in this charge is a $16 million allowance for credit loss as we do not expect to collect our receivables in Ukraine. Long-lived asset impairments include impairments of property, plant, and equipment.

For the year ended December 31, 2021, $12 million of impairments and other charges was recorded due to the decision to discontinue the proposed sale of our Pipeline and Process Services business and as a result we recorded a $36 million charge for accumulated unrecognized depreciation and amortization expense during the period the associated assets were classified as held for sale. Additionally, we finalized a structured transaction relating to most of our owned United States real estate. As a result of the transaction, we derecognized $358 million of assets previously held for sale included in Other current assets and recognized an investment in an unconsolidated subsidiary of $349 million included in Other assets, which resulted in a gain of $74 million, due to specific assets with a carrying amount less than the fair value.

Note 3. Business Segment and Geographic Information
We operate under two divisions, which form the basis for the two operating segments we report: the Completion and Production segment and the Drilling and Evaluation segment. Our equity in earnings and losses of unconsolidated affiliates that are accounted for using the equity method of accounting are included within cost of services and cost of sales on our statements of operations, which is part of operating income of the applicable segment.

Impairments and other charges are as follows:
-For the year ended December 31, 2022, amount includes approximately $136 million attributable to Completion and Production, $195 million attributable to Drilling and Evaluation, and $35 million attributable to Corporate and other.
-For the year ended December 31, 2021, amount includes approximately $42 million attributable to Completion and Production, $9 million attributable to Drilling and Evaluation, and a $39 million net gain attributable to Corporate and other.
(c)
The Central Bank of Argentina maintains currency controls that limit our ability to access U.S. dollars in Argentina and remit cash from our Argentine operations. Our execution of certain trades, known as Blue Chip Swaps, which effectively results in a parallel U.S. dollar exchange rate, resulted in a $110 million pre-tax loss for the year ended December 31, 2023.
(d)
For the year ended December 31, 2023, we incurred a loss of $131 million due to the devaluation of the currency in Argentina.

Note 4. Revenue
Revenue is recognized based on the transfer of control or our customers' ability to benefit from our services and products in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those services and products. Most of our service and product contracts are short-term in nature. In recognizing revenue for our services and products, we determine the transaction price of purchase orders or contracts with our customers, which may consist of fixed and variable consideration. We also assess our customers' ability and intention to pay, which is based on a variety of factors, including our historical payment experience with, and the financial condition of our customers. Payment terms and conditions vary by contract type, although terms generally include a requirement of payment within 20 to 60 days. Other judgments involved in recognizing revenue include an assessment of progress towards completion of performance obligations for certain long-term contracts, which involve estimating total costs to determine our progress towards contract completion, and calculating the corresponding amount of revenue to recognize.

Disaggregation of revenue
We disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers into types of services or products, consistent with our two reportable segments, in addition to geographical area. Based on the location of services provided and products sold, 44%, 45%, and 40% of our consolidated revenue was from the United States for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively. No other country accounted for more than 10% of our revenue.

Total revenue$23,018 $20,297 $15,295 

Contract balances
We perform our obligations under contracts with our customers by transferring services and products in exchange for consideration. The timing of our performance often differs from the timing of our customer’s payment, which results in the recognition of receivables and deferred revenue. Deferred revenue represents advance consideration received from customers for contracts where revenue is recognized on future performance of service. Deferred revenue, as well as revenue recognized during the period relating to amounts included as deferred revenue at the beginning of the period, was not material to our consolidated financial statements.

Transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations
Remaining performance obligations represent firm contracts for which work has not been performed and future revenue recognition is expected. We have elected the practical expedient permitting the exclusion of disclosing remaining performance obligations for contracts that have an original expected duration of one year or less. We have some long-term contracts related to software and integrated project management services such as lump sum turnkey contracts. For software contracts, revenue is generally recognized over the duration of the contract period when the software is considered to be a right to access our intellectual property. For lump sum turnkey projects, we recognize revenue over time using an input method, which requires us to exercise judgment. Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations for these long-term contracts is not material.

Note 5. Receivables
As of December 31, 2023, 33% of our net trade receivables were from customers in the United States and 9% were from customers in Mexico. As of December 31, 2022, 38% of our net trade receivables were from customers in the United States and 11% were from customers in Mexico. Receivables from our primary customer in Mexico accounted for approximately 6% and 9% of our total receivables as of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. While we have experienced payment delays in Mexico, these amounts are not in dispute and we have not historically had, and we do not expect, any material write-offs due to collectability from this customer. No other country or single customer accounted for more than 10% of our receivables at those dates.

Although the market environment has been improving, we continue to have risk of delayed customer payments and payment defaults associated with customer liquidity issues. We routinely monitor the financial stability of our customers and employ an extensive process to evaluate the collectability of outstanding receivables. This process, which involves judgment and estimates, includes analysis of our customers’ historical time to pay, financial condition and various financial metrics, debt structure, credit ratings, and production profile, as well as political and economic factors in countries of operations and other customer-specific factors.

Note 6. Leases
For operating leases, lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and accretion of the lease liability, while finance leases include both an operating expense and an interest expense component. For all leases with a term of 12 months or less, we recognize lease expense for these short-term leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

We are a lessee for numerous operating leases, primarily related to real estate, transportation, and equipment. The vast majority of our operating leases have remaining lease terms of 10 years or less, some of which include options to extend the leases, and some of which include options to terminate the leases. We generally do not include renewal or termination options in our assessment of the leases unless extension or termination for certain assets is deemed to be reasonably certain. The accounting for some of our leases may require judgment, which includes determining whether a contract contains a lease, determining the incremental borrowing rates to utilize in our net present value calculation of lease payments for lease agreements which do not provide an implicit rate, and assessing the likelihood of renewal or termination options. We also have some lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for as a single lease component. For certain equipment leases, such as offshore vessels and drilling rigs, we account for the lease and non-lease components separately.

The following tables illustrate the financial impact of our leases as of and for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, along with other supplemental information about our existing leases:

During the year ended December 31, 2023, there were no impairments charges related to inventory. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we recorded $70 million of impairment charges related to inventory. These charges were primarily attributable to our exit from Russia. See Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements for further discussion on impairments and other charges.

Note 8. Accounts Payable

Effective January 1, 2023, we adopted new supplier finance program disclosure requirements contained in guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (ASU 2022-04, "Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations"), other than the roll-forward disclosure, which we will adopt in 2024.

We have agreements with third parties that allow our participating suppliers to finance payment obligations from us with designated third-party financial institutions who act as our paying agent. We have generally extended our payment terms with suppliers to 90 days. A participating supplier may request a participating financial institution to finance one or more of our payment obligations to such supplier prior to the scheduled due date thereof at a discounted price. We are not required to provide collateral to the financial institutions.

Our obligations to participating suppliers, including amounts due and scheduled payment dates, are not impacted by the suppliers’ decisions to finance amounts due under these financing arrangements. Our outstanding payment obligations under these agreements were $322 million as of December 31, 2023, and $273 million as of December 31, 2022, and are included in accounts payable on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

During the year ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no short-term borrowings or current maturities of long-term debt.

Senior debt
We may redeem all of our senior notes from time to time or all of the notes of each series at any time at the applicable redemption prices, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Our 6.75% notes due February 2027 and 7.6% senior debentures due August 2096 may not be redeemed prior to maturity.

Repurchases of senior debt
In August of 2023, we repurchased $150 million aggregate principal amount of various maturities of our outstanding debt, including: $15 million of our 3.8% senior notes due November 2025, $14 million of our 6.75% notes due February 2027, $21 million of our 6.7% senior notes due September 2038, $32 million of our 7.45% senior notes due September 2039, $60 million of our 5.0% senior notes due November 2045, and $8 million of our 7.6% senior debentures due August 2096.

In November of 2023, we repurchased $150 million aggregate principal amount of various maturities of our outstanding debt, including: $3 million of our 3.8% senior notes due November 2025, $16 million of our 6.7% senior notes due September 2038, $22 million of our 7.45% senior notes due September 2039, $21 million of our 4.75% senior notes due August 2043, $29 million of our 5.0% senior notes due November 2045, and $58 million of our 7.6% senior notes due August 2096.

Item 8 | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
We used cash on hand to fund these repurchases, which included the principal amount, a net premium, and accrued interest. The remaining principal balance of $5.2 billion in the aggregate of these debt instruments remains outstanding.

Redemption of 3.8% senior notes due November 2025 redemption
In February of 2022, we redeemed $600 million aggregate principal amount of our 3.8% senior notes due in November 2025. The early redemption of the notes resulted in a loss of $42 million, consisting of premiums and unamortized expenses. The loss is included in "Loss on early extinguishment of debt" in our consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022. We used cash on hand to fund the aggregate redemption price of the notes in the amount of $641 million, which included the principal amount, the make-whole premium, and accrued interest. The remaining $382 million aggregate principal amount of our 3.8% senior notes remains outstanding.

Revolving credit facilities
We have a revolving credit facility with a capacity of $3.5 billion, which expires in April 2027. The facility is for general working capital purposes. The full amount of the revolving credit facility was available as of December 31, 2023.

Debt maturities
Our long-term debt matures as follows: no amounts in 2024, $382 million in 2025, no amounts in 2026, $90 million in 2027, no amounts in 2028, and the remainder thereafter.

Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is subject to various legal or governmental proceedings, claims or investigations, including personal injury, property damage, environmental, intellectual property, commercial, tax, and other matters arising in the ordinary course of business, the resolution of which, in the opinion of management, will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position. There is inherent risk in any legal or governmental proceeding, claim or investigation, and no assurance can be given as to the outcome of these proceedings.

Guarantee arrangements
In the normal course of business, we have in place agreements with financial institutions under which approximately $2.6 billion of letters of credit, bank guarantees, or surety bonds were outstanding as of December 31, 2023. Some of the outstanding letters of credit have triggering events that would entitle a bank to require cash collateralization. None of these off- balance sheet arrangements either has, or is likely to have, a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, we recorded a total income tax provision of $701 million on pre-tax income of $3.4 billion, resulting in an effective tax rate of 20.8%. The effective tax rate for 2023 was primarily impacted by our geographic mix of earnings, tax adjustments related to the reassessment of prior year tax accruals, and changes of valuation allowance on some of our deferred tax assets.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, we recorded a total income tax provision of $515 million on pre-tax income of $2.1 billion, resulting in an effective tax rate of 24.4%. The effective tax rate for 2022 was primarily impacted by our geographic mix of earnings, tax adjustments related to the reassessment of prior year tax accruals, and valuation allowances on some of our deferred tax assets.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, we recorded a total income tax benefit of $216 million on pre-tax income of $1.3 billion, resulting in an effective tax rate of -17.2%. The effective tax rate for 2021 was primarily impacted by our geographic mix of earnings, tax adjustments related to the reassessment of prior year tax accruals, and valuation allowances on some of our deferred tax assets.

At December 31, 2023, we had $686 million of domestic and foreign tax-effected net operating loss carryforwards, with approximately $23 million estimated to be utilized against our unrecognized tax benefits. In addition, we had approximately $924 million of foreign tax credit carryforwards which are offset by $22 million of foreign branch deferred activity and unrecognized tax benefits reflected in the table above. The ultimate realization of these deferred tax assets depends on our ability to generate sufficient taxable income in the appropriate taxing jurisdiction.

(b)
Includes $85 million as of December 31, 2023 that we believe could be resolved within the next 12 months.


Our tax returns are subject to review by the taxing authorities in the jurisdictions where we file tax returns. In most cases we are no longer subject to examination by tax authorities for years before 2012. The only significant operating jurisdiction that has tax filings under review or subject to examination by the tax authorities is the United States. The United States federal income tax filings for tax years 2016 through 2022 are currently under review or remain open for review by the IRS.
As of December 31, 2023, the primary unresolved issue for the IRS audit for 2016 relates to the classification of the $3.5 billion ordinary deduction that we claimed for the termination fee we paid to Baker Hughes in the second quarter of 2016 for which we received a NOPA from the IRS on September 28, 2023. We regularly assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from tax examinations to determine the adequacy of our tax reserves, and we believe our income tax reserves are appropriately provided for all open tax years. We do not expect a final resolution of this issue in the next 12 months.

Based on the information currently available, we do not anticipate a significant increase or decrease to our tax contingencies within the next 12 months.

Our Board of Directors has authorized a program to repurchase a specified dollar amount of our common stock from time to time. The program does not require a specific number of shares to be purchased and the program may be effected through solicited or unsolicited transactions in the market or in privately negotiated transactions. The program may be terminated or suspended at any time. We purchased 22.7 million shares of our common stock under the program during the year ended December 31, 2023. During the year ended December 31, 2022 we purchased 6.8 million shares of our common stock under the program. Approximately $4.1 billion remained authorized for repurchases as of December 31, 2023. From the inception of this program in February 2006 through December 31, 2023, we repurchased approximately 253 million shares of our common stock for a total cost of approximately $10.1 billion.

Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par Value
During 2023, 2022 and 2021, we issued common stock from treasury shares under our employee stock purchase plan awards and for restricted stock grants. As a result, additional paid in capital would have resulted in a balance below zero. Therefore, for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, we reduced retained earnings by $98 million, $275 million, and $277 million, respectively. Additional issuances from treasury shares could similarly impact additional paid in capital and retained earnings.

Preferred stock
Our preferred stock consists of five million total authorized shares at December 31, 2023, of which none are issued.

-    stock options, including incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options;
-    restricted stock awards;
-    restricted stock unit awards;
-    stock appreciation rights; and
-    stock value equivalent awards.

There are currently no stock appreciation rights, stock value equivalent awards, or incentive stock options outstanding. Under the terms of the Stock Plan, approximately 264 million shares of common stock have been reserved for issuance to employees and non-employee directors. At December 31, 2023, approximately 11 million shares were available for future grants under the Stock Plan. The stock to be offered pursuant to the grant of an award under the Stock Plan may be authorized but unissued common shares or treasury shares.

HAL 2023 FORM 10-K | 63

Item 8 | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
In addition to the provisions of the Stock Plan, we also have stock-based compensation provisions under the Restricted Stock Plan for Non-Employee Directors and the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP).

Each of the active stock-based compensation arrangements is discussed below.

Stock options
There were no stock options granted during 2023 and there are no plans to grant stock options in 2024. All stock options under the Stock Plan were granted at the fair market value of our common stock at the grant date. Employee stock options generally vest ratably over a period of three years and expire 10 years from the grant date. Compensation expense for stock options is generally recognized on a straight line basis over the entire vesting period.

Exercisable at December 31, 202314.3$45.47 2.7$27.2 

The total intrinsic value of options exercised was $20 million in 2023, $43 million in 2022, and $315,000 in 2021. As of December 31, 2023, there was no unrecognized compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, related to nonvested stock options.

Cash received from issuance of common stock for 2023, 2022, and 2021 was $136 million, $229 million, and $79 million, respectively, of which $48 million, $148 million, and $4 million, respectively, are related to proceeds from exercises of stock options. All other cash received from issuance of common stock during 2023, 2022 and 2021 relates to cash proceeds from the issuance of shares under our employee stock purchase plan.

The fair value of options at the date of grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The expected volatility of options granted was a blended rate based upon implied volatility calculated on actively traded options on our common stock and upon the historical volatility of our common stock. The expected term of options granted was based upon historical observation of actual time elapsed between date of grant and exercise of options for all employees. There were no stock options granted for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021.

Restricted stock
Restricted shares issued under the Stock Plan are restricted as to sale or disposition. These restrictions generally lapse periodically over a period of five years. Restrictions may also lapse for early retirement and other conditions in accordance with our established policies. Upon termination of employment, shares on which restrictions have not lapsed must be returned to us, resulting in restricted stock forfeitures. The fair market value of the stock on the date of grant is amortized and charged to income on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award.

In 2023, we also granted performance based restricted stock units, with the actual number of shares earned to be determined at the end of a three year performance period based on our achievement of certain predefined targets. These targets are based upon our average return on capital employed as compared to certain competitors and a modifier based upon stock performance compared to the Oilfield Services Index (OSX). A Monte Carlo simulation that uses a probabilistic approach was performed by an actuary to measure grant date fair value. The fair value of these performance based restricted stock units is recognized on a straight-line basis over the three year performance cycle.

The total fair value of shares vested was $283 million during 2023, $248 million during 2022, and $117 million during 2021. As of December 31, 2023, there was $377 million of unrecognized compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, related to nonvested restricted stock, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of three years.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan
Under the ESPP, eligible employees may have up to 10% of their earnings withheld, subject to some limitations, to be used to purchase shares of our common stock. The ESPP contains four three-month offering periods commencing on January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1 of each year. The price at which common stock may be purchased under the ESPP in 2021, 2022, and 2023 is equal to 90% of the lower of the fair market value of the common stock on the commencement date or last trading day of each offering period. Under the ESPP, 104 million shares of common stock have been reserved for issuance, of which 76 million shares have been sold through the ESPP since the inception of the plan through December 31, 2023 and 28 million shares are available for future issuance. The stock to be offered may be authorized but unissued common shares or treasury shares.

The fair value of ESPP shares was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The expected volatility was a one-year historical volatility of our common stock. The assumptions and resulting fair values were as follows:

Note 15. Income per Share
Basic income or loss per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share includes additional common shares that would have been outstanding if potential common shares with a dilutive effect had been issued. Antidilutive securities represent potentially dilutive securities which are excluded from the computation of diluted income or loss per share as their impact was antidilutive.

Item 8 | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 16. Financial Instruments and Risk Management
The carrying amount of cash and equivalents, receivables, and accounts payable, as reflected in the consolidated balance sheets, approximates fair value due to the short maturities of these instruments.

The carrying amount and fair value of our total debt is as follows:

December 31, 2023December 31, 2022
Millions of dollarsLevel 1Level 2Total fair valueCarrying valueLevel 1Level 2Total fair valueCarrying value
Total debt$7,419 $378 $7,797 $7,636 $6,539 $917 $7,456 $7,928 

The total fair value of our debt increased during 2023 as a result of lower treasury yields which was partially offset by $300 million in debt repurchases, as discussed in Note 10.

Our debt categorized within level 1 on the fair value hierarchy is calculated using quoted prices in active markets for identical liabilities with transactions occurring on the last two days of period-end. Our debt categorized within level 2 on the fair value hierarchy is calculated using significant observable inputs for similar liabilities where estimated values are determined from observable data points on our other bonds and on other similarly rated corporate debt or from observable data points of transactions occurring prior to two days from period-end and adjusting for changes in market conditions. Differences between the periods presented in our level 1 and level 2 classification of our long-term debt relate to the timing of when third party market transactions on our debt are executed. We have no debt categorized within level 3 on the fair value hierarchy.

We are exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. We selectively manage these exposures through the use of derivative instruments, including forward foreign exchange contracts, foreign exchange options and interest rate swaps. The objective of our risk management strategy is to minimize the volatility from fluctuations in foreign currency and interest rates. We do not use derivative instruments for trading purposes. The fair value of our forward contracts, options, and interest rate swaps was not material as of December 31, 2023 or December 31, 2022. The counterparties to our derivatives are primarily global commercial and investment banks.

Foreign currency exchange risk
We have operations in many international locations and are involved in transactions denominated in currencies other than the United States dollar, our functional currency, which exposes us to foreign currency exchange rate risk. Techniques in managing foreign currency exchange risk include, but are not limited to, foreign currency borrowing and investing, and the use of currency exchange instruments. We attempt to selectively manage significant exposures to potential foreign currency exchange losses based on current market conditions, future operating activities, and the associated cost in relation to the perceived risk of loss. The purpose of our foreign currency risk management activities is to minimize the risk that our cash flows from the purchase and sale of products and services in foreign currencies will be adversely affected by changes in exchange rates.

We use forward contracts and options to manage our exposure to fluctuations in the currencies of certain countries in which we do business internationally. These instruments are not treated as hedges for accounting purposes, generally have an expiration date of one year or less, and are not exchange traded. While these instruments are subject to fluctuations in value, the fluctuations are generally offset by the value of the underlying exposures being managed. The use of some of these instruments may limit our ability to benefit from favorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

Derivatives are not utilized to manage exposures in some currencies due primarily to the lack of available markets, cost considerations, or immaterial exposures (non-hedged currencies). We attempt to minimize foreign currency exposure in non-hedged currencies and recognize that pricing for the services and products offered in these countries should account for the cost of exchange rate devaluations.

HAL 2023 FORM 10-K | 66

Item 8 | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
The notional amounts of open foreign exchange derivatives were $715 million at December 31, 2023 and $650 million at December 31, 2022. The notional amounts of these instruments do not generally represent amounts exchanged by the parties, and thus are not a measure of our exposure or of the cash requirements related to these contracts. The fair value of our foreign exchange derivatives as of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 is included in both "Other current assets" and in "Other current liabilities" in our consolidated balance sheets and was immaterial. The fair value of these instruments is categorized within level 2 on the fair value hierarchy and was determined using a market approach with certain inputs, such as notional amounts hedged, exchange rates, and other terms of the contracts that are observable in the market or can be derived from or corroborated by observable data.

Interest rate risk
We are subject to interest rate risk on our debt and investment portfolios. We had fixed rate long-term debt totaling $7.6 billion at December 31, 2023 and $7.9 billion at December 31, 2022. We maintain an interest rate management strategy that is intended to mitigate the exposure to changes in interest rates.

Credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk are primarily cash equivalents and net trade receivables. It is our practice to place our cash equivalents in high quality investments with various institutions. Our net trade receivables are from a broad and diverse group of customers and are generally not collateralized. As of December 31, 2023, 33% of our net trade receivables were from customers in the United States and 9% were from customers in Mexico. As of December 31, 2022, 38% of our net trade receivables were from customers in the United States and 11% were from customers in Mexico. We maintain an allowance for credit losses based upon several factors, including historical collection experience, current aging status of the customer accounts and financial condition of our customers. See Note 5 for further information.

During the fourth quarter of 2023, we entered into a credit default swap ("CDS") with a third-party financial institution. The notional amount of the CDS, which was $300 million at the end of January 2024, will reduce on a monthly basis over its 26-month term. The CDS relates to a borrowing provided by the financial institution to one of our primary customers in Mexico, a portion of the proceeds of which was utilized by this customer to pay certain of our outstanding receivables. The fair value of this derivative liability was not material at December 31, 2023.

We do not have any significant concentrations of credit risk with any individual counterparty to our derivative contracts. We select counterparties to those contracts based on our belief that each counterparty’s profitability, balance sheet, and capacity for timely payment of financial commitments is unlikely to be materially adversely affected by foreseeable events.

Note 17. Retirement Plans
Our company and subsidiaries have various plans that cover a significant number of our employees. These plans include defined contribution plans, defined benefit plans, and other postretirement plans:
-    our defined contribution plans provide retirement benefits in return for services rendered. These plans provide an individual account for each participant and have terms that specify how contributions to the participant’s account are to be determined rather than the amount of pension benefits the participant is to receive. Contributions to these plans are based on a percentage of pre-tax income, after-tax income, or discretionary amounts determined on an annual basis. Our expense for the defined contribution plans totaled $181 million in 2023, $160 million in 2022, and $136 million in 2021. The increase in expense from 2022 to 2023 was due to headcount and salary increase for the year ended December 31, 2023.
-    our defined benefit plans, which include both overfunded and underfunded pension plans, define an amount of pension benefit to be provided, usually as a function of age, years of service and/or compensation. The underfunded obligations and net periodic benefit cost of our United States defined benefit plans were not material for the periods presented; and
-    our postretirement plans other than pensions are offered to specific eligible employees. The accumulated benefit obligations and net periodic benefit cost for these plans were not material for the periods presented.

Funded status
For our international pension plans, at December 31, 2023, the projected benefit obligation was $745 million and the fair value of plan assets was $622 million, which resulted in an underfunded obligation of $123 million. At December 31, 2022, the projected benefit obligation was $669 million and the fair value of plan assets was $665 million, which resulted in an underfunded obligation of $4 million. The accumulated benefit obligation for our international plans was $672 million at December 31, 2023 and $601 million at December 31, 2022. The increase in projected benefit obligation and accumulated benefit obligation from 2022 to 2023 was due to assumption changes, mainly a decrease in discount rate.

Fair value measurements of plan assets
The fair value of our plan assets categorized within level 1 on the fair value hierarchy is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The fair value of our plan assets categorized within level 2 on the fair value hierarchy is based on significant observable inputs for similar assets. The fair value of our plan assets categorized within level 3 on the fair value hierarchy is based on significant unobservable inputs.

The fair value amounts presented in this table are intended to permit reconciliation of the fair value hierarchy to the total value of our international pension plans assets.
(b)Strategy of bond funds is to invest in diversified funds of fixed income securities of varying geographies and credit quality.
(c)Strategy of alternative funds is to invest in a fund of diversifying investments, including but not limited to reinsurance, commodities, and currencies.
(d)Strategy of real estate funds is to invest in diversified funds of real estate investment trusts and private real estate.
(e)Other investments primarily include investments in insurance contracts, balanced funds, and government bonds.

Risk management practices for these plans include diversification by issuer, industry, and geography, as well as the use of multiple asset classes and investment managers within each asset class. Our investment strategy for our United Kingdom pension plan, which constituted 75% of our international pension plans’ projected benefit obligation at December 31, 2023 and is no longer accruing service benefits, aims to achieve full funding of the benefit obligation, with the plan's assets increasingly composed of investments whose cash flows match the projected liabilities of the plan.

Net periodic benefit cost
Net periodic benefit cost for our international pension plans was $32 million in 2023, $14 million in 2022, and $25 million in 2021.

Item 8 | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Actuarial assumptions
Certain weighted-average actuarial assumptions used to determine benefit obligations of our international pension plans at December 31 were as follows:
20232022
Discount rate5.1%5.7%
Rate of compensation increase5.6%5.5%

Certain weighted-average actuarial assumptions used to determine net periodic benefit cost of our international pension plans for the years ended December 31 were as follows:
202320222021
Discount rate5.6%2.3%1.8%
Expected long-term return on plan assets3.8%3.0%2.7%
Rate of compensation increase5.4%5.3%5.9%

Assumed long-term rates of return on plan assets, discount rates for estimating benefit obligations, and rates of compensation increases vary by plan according to local economic conditions. Where possible, discount rates were determined based on the prevailing market rates of a portfolio of high-quality debt instruments with maturities matching the expected timing of the payment of the benefit obligations. Expected long-term rates of return on plan assets were determined based upon an evaluation of our plan assets and historical trends and experience, taking into account current and expected market conditions.

Other information
Contributions. Funding requirements for each plan are determined based on the local laws of the country where such plan resides. In certain countries the funding requirements are mandatory, while in other countries they are discretionary. We currently expect to contribute $2 million to our international pension plans in 2024.

Benefit payments. Expected benefit payments over the next 10 years for our international pension plans are as follows: $38 million in 2024, $35 million in 2025, $37 million in 2026, $39 million in 2027, $42 million in 2028, and an aggregate $247 million in years 2029 through 2033.

Note 18. New Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (FASB) issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment reporting (Topic 280)”, which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The amendments require disclosure of significant segment expenses regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM) as well as other segment items, extend certain annual disclosures to interim periods, clarify the applicability to single reportable segment entities, permit more than one measure of profit or loss to be reported under certain conditions, and require disclosure of the title and position of the CODM. We expect to adopt the new disclosures as required for the year ended December 31, 2024. We are currently evaluating the impact on the related disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires the annual financial statements to include consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation, and income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 is effective for the Company’s annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted, and should be applied on a prospective basis, with a retrospective option. We are currently evaluating the effect that adoption of ASU 2023-09 will have on our disclosures.

Item 9(a). Controls and Procedures.
In accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2023 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Our disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended December 31, 2023 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

DESCRIPTION OF THE REGISTRANT’S SECURITIES
REGISTERED PURSUANT TO SECTION 12 OF THE
SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

The following description of Halliburton’s common stock, preferred stock, certificate of incorporation and by-laws is a summary only and is subject to the complete text of Halliburton’s certificate of incorporation and by-laws. You should read Halliburton’s certificate of incorporation and by-laws as currently in effect for more details regarding the provisions described below and for other provisions that may be important to you. This section also summarizes relevant provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”). The terms of the DGCL are more detailed than the general information provided below. Therefore, you should carefully consider the actual provisions of these laws.

Halliburton’s authorized capital stock consists of 2,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $2.50 per share, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, without par value.

Common Stock

The holders of Halliburton common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted on by stockholders generally, including the election of directors. There are no cumulative voting rights, meaning that the holders of a majority of the shares voting for the election of directors can elect all of the candidates standing for election.

Halliburton’s common stock carries no preemptive or other subscription rights to purchase shares of Halliburton common stock and is not convertible, redeemable or assessable or entitled to the benefits of any sinking fund. Holders of Halliburton common stock will be entitled to receive such dividends as may from time to time be declared by Halliburton’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends. If Halliburton issues preferred stock in the future, payment of dividends to holders of Halliburton common stock may be subject to the rights of holders of Halliburton preferred stock with respect to payment of preferential dividends, if any.

If Halliburton is liquidated, dissolved or wound up, the holders of Halliburton common stock will share pro rata in Halliburton’s assets after satisfaction of all of its liabilities and the prior rights of any outstanding class of preferred stock.

Halliburton common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “HAL.” Any additional common stock that Halliburton will issue will also be listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

Preferred Stock

The Board has the authority, without stockholder approval, to issue shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the number of shares and terms of each series. The Board may determine the designation and other terms of each series, including, among others:

dividend rights;
voting powers;
preemptive rights;
conversion rights;
redemption rights, including pursuant to a sinking fund;
our purchase obligations, including pursuant to a sinking fund; and
liquidation preferences.






The issuance of preferred stock, while providing desired flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could adversely affect the voting power of holders of Halliburton common stock. It also could affect the likelihood that holders of Halliburton common stock will receive dividend payments and payments upon liquidation. Shares of preferred stock may be offered either separately or represented by depositary shares.

Anti-Takeover Provisions

Some provisions of Delaware law, Halliburton’s certificate of incorporation and by-laws summarized below could make certain change of control transactions more difficult, including acquisitions of Halliburton by means of a tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise, as well as removal of Halliburton’s incumbent directors. These provisions may have the effect of preventing changes in Halliburton’s management. It is possible that these provisions would make it more difficult to accomplish or deter transactions that a stockholder might consider in his or her best interest, including those attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the common stock.

Business Combinations Under Delaware Law

Halliburton is a Delaware corporation and is subject to Section 203 of the DGCL. Generally, Section 203 prevents (i) a person who owns 15% or more of Halliburton’s outstanding voting stock (an “interested stockholder”), (ii) an affiliate or associate of Halliburton who was also an interested stockholder at any time within three years immediately prior to the date of determination and (iii) the affiliates and associates of any such persons from engaging in any business combination with Halliburton, including mergers or consolidations or acquisitions of additional shares, for three years following the date that the person became an interested stockholder. These restrictions do not apply if:

before the person became an interested stockholder, the Board approved either the business combination or the transaction in which the interested stockholder became an interested stockholder;
upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of Halliburton voting stock that was outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, other than statutorily excluded shares; or
on or subsequent to the time the stockholder became an interested stockholder, the business combination is approved by both the Board and the holders of at least two-thirds of Halliburton outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.

Number and Election of Directors

Halliburton’s by-laws provide that the number of directors shall not be less than 8 nor more than 20, with the number of directors to be fixed from time to time by or in the manner provided in the by-laws. Halliburton’s by-laws provide that the number of directors shall be fixed by resolution of the Board or by the stockholders at the annual meeting, and that in the event of a vacancy or newly created directorship, the remaining directors have the sole power to fill any such vacancies.

Limitation of Stockholder Actions
Any Halliburton stockholder wishing to submit a nomination to the Board must follow certain procedures contained in Halliburton’s by-laws. In addition, Halliburton’s by-laws require written application by a holder of at least 10% of the outstanding Halliburton voting stock entitled to vote on the matter to be presented at the meeting or two or more holders owning in the aggregate at least 25% of the outstanding Halliburton voting stock entitled to vote on the matter to be presented at the meeting to call a special meeting of the Halliburton stockholders. Generally, a notice of a stockholder proposal or nomination of a director candidate is timely if it is received not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary of the immediately preceding annual meeting. Halliburton’s by-laws specify the requirements as to form and content of all stockholders’ notices. These requirements may preclude stockholders from bringing matters before the stockholders at an annual or special meeting to the extent they do not comply with the requirements in these advance notice procedures.




Authorized but Unissued Shares

Halliburton’s certificate of incorporation provides that the authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock are available for future issuance without stockholder approval and does not preclude the future issuance without stockholder approval of the authorized but unissued shares of Halliburton’s common stock. These additional shares may be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings to raise additional capital, corporate acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued shares of common stock and preferred stock could make it more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of Halliburton by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.

Amendments to Halliburton’s By-laws

Halliburton’s by-laws may be amended or repealed or new by-laws may be adopted (i) by the affirmative vote of the majority of the Board or (ii) at any annual or special meeting of the stockholders where a quorum is present by the affirmative vote of the majority of the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting.

Limitation of Director Liability and Indemnification Arrangements

Halliburton’s by-laws contain provisions that provide for indemnification of officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by, and in the manner permissible under, the DGCL, which empowers a Delaware corporation to indemnify any person who was or is or is threatened to be made a witness in or a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such corporation or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees), liabilities, judgments, fines, excise taxes, penalties and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided that such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful.

As permitted by the DGCL, Halliburton’s certificate of incorporation contains a provision eliminating the personal liability of Halliburton’s directors to Halliburton or Halliburton’s stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, subject to certain exceptions. Halliburton’s limitation of liability and indemnification provisions may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against directors or officers for breach of their fiduciary duty. These provisions may also have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors or officers, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit Halliburton and stockholders of Halliburton.

Grant Date:                            <<Grant Date>>

Grantee (“Employee”):                        <<Participant Name>>

Aggregate Number of Shares Subject to Award:            <<Number _Restricted_Shares>>



This RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made as of <<Grant Date>>, between HALLIBURTON COMPANY, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and <<Participant Name>> (“Employee”).

1.Award of Shares. Pursuant to the Halliburton Company Stock and Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”) the aggregate number of shares subject to the award set forth above of Halliburton Company common stock, par value $2.50 per share (“Stock”), shall be issued as hereinafter provided in Employee’s name subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan. The shares granted pursuant to this Agreement that are subject to Forfeiture Restrictions (as defined below) are referred to as the “Restricted Shares”. The Restricted Shares shall be issued upon acceptance hereof by Employee and upon satisfaction of the conditions of this Agreement.

2.Plan Incorporated. Employee acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan, and agrees that this award of Restricted Shares shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan, including future amendments thereto. The Plan is incorporated herein by reference as a part of this Agreement. Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms shall have the same meaning ascribed to them under the Plan.

3.Vesting of Restricted Shares; Forfeiture of Restricted Shares.

(a)Vesting Schedule. The Restricted Shares shall vest (i.e., Forfeiture Restrictions lapse) in accordance with the vesting details for this grant displayed in the Distribution Schedule in the Employee’s Account at www.NetBenefits.Fidelity.com, provided the Employee has been continuously and actively employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies from the date of this Agreement through the applicable vesting date. The prohibition against transfer and the obligation to forfeit and surrender Restricted Shares to the Company upon termination of employment are herein referred to as “Forfeiture Restrictions”.

(b)Accelerated Vesting. The Forfeiture Restrictions shall lapse as to all of the Restricted Shares on the earlier of (i) the date of Employee’s Qualifying Termination (as such term is defined in the Plan), or (ii) the date Employee’s employment with the Company is terminated by reason of death or disability (as determined by the Company). In the event Employee’s employment is terminated for any other reason, including retirement, upon the recommendation of applicable management of the Company and/or business unit, the Committee which administers the Plan (the “Committee”) or its delegate, as appropriate, may, in the Committee’s or such delegate’s sole discretion, approve the lapse of Forfeiture Restrictions as to any or all Restricted Shares still subject to such restrictions, such lapse to be effective on the date of such approval or Employee’s termination date, if later.

(c)Forfeiture of the Restricted Shares. In the event of termination of Employee’s employment with the Company or any Subsidiary or affiliated company for any reason other than as otherwise provided in this Paragraph 3, Employee shall, for no consideration, forfeit all Restricted Shares to the extent they are not fully vested as of Employee’s termination date. Any question as to whether and when there has been a termination of such employment and the cause for such termination, shall be determined by the Committee, or its delegate, as appropriate, and its determination shall be final.

4.Book Entry Record. The Restricted Shares shall be represented by book entry transaction registered in the name of a nominee of the Company, pursuant to which Employee shall have voting rights and shall be entitled to receive all dividends unless and until the Restricted Shares are forfeited pursuant to the



provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the issuance or delivery of any shares of Stock (whether subject to restrictions or unrestricted) may be postponed for such period as may be required to comply with applicable requirements of any national securities exchange or any requirements under any law or regulation applicable to the issuance or delivery of such shares. The Company shall not be obligated to issue or deliver any shares of Stock if the issuance or delivery thereof shall constitute a violation of any provision of any law or of any regulation or any national securities exchange.

5.Non-Disclosure, Non-Solicit and Non-Compete Covenants. To further align Employee’s interests with the Company’s long-term business interests, including the preservation of the Company’s goodwill and the protection of the Confidential Business Information (as defined below) that Employee has obtained and will, necessarily continue to receive and rely on, Employee and the Company hereby agree to the following:

(a)Non-Disclosure of Confidential Business Information. Employee agrees that (a) the Company’s Confidential Business Information constitutes valuable, special, and unique assets that the Company uses in its business to obtain a competitive advantage over its competitors; and (b) the protection of such Confidential Business Information against unauthorized disclosure and Employee’s use thereof is of critical importance to the Company in maintaining its competitive position. Employee also acknowledges and agrees that any unauthorized use or disclosure of such Confidential Business Information or other confidential information would cause irreparable harm to the Company. In consideration of the foregoing, Employee thereby agrees that Employee will not at any time during employment by the Company, and for so long thereafter as the pertinent information or documentation remains confidential, use (either for the benefit of Employee or the benefit of others), publish, disclose, claim ownership of, communicate, divulge or send to others, access, or take, any Confidential Business Information or any confidential information of the Company or its affiliates, including the vendors, consultants, joint ventures, or customers of the Company, except to the extent needed to carry out Employee’s obligations to the Company or as otherwise authorized in writing by the Company. Employee acknowledges and agrees that any unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Business Information or other confidential information would cause irreparable harm to the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement does not prevent Employee from: (i) making a good faith report of possible violations of applicable law to the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other governmental agency or entity; or (ii) making disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of applicable law or receiving any award for information provided under such whistleblower provisions.

(b)Non-Solicit and Non-Compete. During Employee’s employment with the Company and for one year immediately thereafter, Employee will not, other than on behalf of the Company, directly or indirectly, as a proprietor, partner, employee, agent or otherwise:

(i)Solicit, directly or indirectly, or cause or permit others to solicit, directly or indirectly, any person (i) formerly employed by the Company during the six (6) month period immediately preceding or following the termination of Employee’s employment (“Former Employee”) or (ii) employed by the Company (“Current Employee”). The term “solicit” includes, but is not limited to, the following (regardless of whether done directly or indirectly): (a) requesting that a Former or Current Employee change employment; (b) informing a Former or Current Employee that an opening exists elsewhere; (c) assisting a Former or Current Employee in finding employment elsewhere; (d) inquiring if a Former or Current Employee “knows of anyone who might be interested” in a position elsewhere; (e) inquiring if a Former or Current Employee might have an interest in employment elsewhere; (f) informing others of the name or status of, or other information about, a Former or Current Employee; or (g) any other similar conduct, the intended or actual effect of which is that a Former Employee affiliates with another employer or a Current Employee leaves the employment of the Company.

(ii)Sell, attempt to sell, or assist in the effort of anyone else who sells or attempts to sell, any products or services which compete with products or services offered by Company to any actual or prospective customer of the Company with whom or with which Employee dealt at any time during the last twelve (12) months of Employee’s



employment by the Company or about whom Employee has any Confidential Business Information.

(iii)Directly or indirectly, solicit, encourage, or induce said actual or prospective customers of the Company to terminate or reduce their business with the Company.

(iv)Participate in, work for, or provide services, in the Territory in which Employee was employed, to any person or entity that is, or is actively planning to be, a “Competitive Business.” The “Territory in which Employee was employed” shall mean (1) Employee’s geographical area of responsibility, (2) a zone of 150 miles radius from a facility, location or office of the Company in which Employee was employed during the last eighteen (18) months of Employee’s employment at the Company, and (3) all locations from which Employee regularly performed Employee’s job functions or performed significant job functions, during the last eighteen (18) months of Employee’s employment at the Company. The term “Competitive Business” shall mean any business (however organized or conducted) that competes with a business in which the Company is engaged or in which the Company was actively planning to engage, at any time during the last twelve (12) months of Employee’s employment by the Company, provided that Employee was involved with or had access to Confidential Business Information regarding such business. This restriction does not prohibit Employee from working for a person or entity, even if a Competitive Business, in a capacity unrelated to the work that Employee performed for the Company, provided Employee and any new employer first provide the Company with adequate written assurances of the steps taken to ensure the protection, and to prevent the use or disclosure, of Confidential Business Information. Nothing in this Subparagraph 5(b)(iv) shall prohibit Employee and Employee’s affiliates from owning, as passive investors, in the aggregate not more than five percent of equity securities of any Competitive Business.

(v)Act in any capacity for or with any Competitive Business, or for or with any of their agents, if in such capacity Employee would, because of the nature of his/her role with such Competitive Business and Employee’s knowledge of Confidential Business Information, inevitably use and/or disclose any Confidential Business Information in his/her work for, or on behalf of, the Competitive Business or its agent.

(vi)Otherwise interfere with, disrupt or attempt to disrupt relations between the Company and any of its employees, contractors, vendors, third party business affiliates, or consultants.

Employee agrees that (a) the covenants contained in this Agreement are necessary for the protection of the Company’s business, goodwill, customer and employee relationships and Confidential Business Information, and (b) the compensation and other consideration received by Employee, including the Restricted Shares, are based on Employee’s agreement to such covenants. Employee represents and warrants that the time, scope of activity and geographic area restricted by this Agreement are reasonable, especially in the view of the worldwide scope of the business operations of the Company, Employee’s position and responsibilities with the Company, and the nature of the Confidential Business Information, that the enforcement of those restrictions contained in this Agreement would not be unduly burdensome to or impose any undue hardship on Employee, and that Employee will be able to earn a reasonable living while abiding by such covenants.

(c)State Specific Limitations. Employee and the Company hereby further agree that, in spite of anything in the Agreement to the contrary, if and to the extent Employee works for the Company, not including temporary assignments or business travel, in the states mentioned below, the restrictions in Paragraph 5(b) will be revised as set forth below.

Additionally, Employee acknowledges that the Company has provided Employee with a separate notice advising Employee of the restrictive covenants in Paragraph 5 in accordance with CRS § 8-2-113 and that the Company gave Employee at least fourteen (14) days to review the notice and the Agreement.

(d)Confidential Business Information. As used in this Agreement, the term “Confidential Business Information” means any and all of the Company’s trade secrets, confidential and/or proprietary information, and all other information and data that is not generally known to third persons who could derive economic value from its use or disclosure, including, but not limited to, the Company’s strategies, methods, products, software, designs, drawings, books, records, data, and technical information concerning its products, equipment, services and processes, procurement procedures and pricing techniques; the methods though which the Company identifies, hires, trains and compensates its employees; details regarding the Company’s employees, including their compensation, contact information, and their performance and conduct; methods to locate and qualify contractors, vendors and third party affiliates; the identity of and other information (such as credit and financial data) concerning the Company’s contractors, vendors and third party business affiliates; the individuals, and their contact Information, at contractors, vendors and third party business affiliates with whom the Company has dealt; the amounts and types of goods and/or services purchased in the past from contractors, vendors and third party business affiliates; the amounts paid for such past purchases; the identity of the Company’s customers; the individuals, and their contact information, at customers with whom Employee has dealt; the amounts and types of products and services purchased in the past by such customers; the amount paid for such past purchases, the timing of such past purchases, and the method of payment for such past purchases; the Company’s plans for future products and services; the details of any ongoing or planned negotiations for future products and services; and the Company’s plans for the future, including without limitation plans for its products and services, for geographic and customer markets, and for marketing, promoting, selling, distributing and providing its products and services.

6.Non-Transferability. The Restricted Shares may not be sold, assigned, pledged, exchanged, hypothecated, encumbered, disposed of, or otherwise transferred, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a “qualified domestic relations order” as defined by the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) or Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of



1974, as amended, or similar order. Upon any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of the Restricted Shares or such rights contrary to the provisions hereof or in the Plan, the Restricted Shares and such rights shall immediately become null and void.

7.Withholding of Tax. Employee acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company or, if different, the Subsidiary or affiliated company that employs Employee (the “Employer”), the ultimate liability for all income tax, social contributions, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account, hypothetical tax or other tax-related items related to Employee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to Employee or deemed by the Company or the Employer in their discretion to be an appropriate charge to Employee even if legally applicable to the Company or the Employer (“Tax-Related Items”), is and remains Employee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer, if any. Employee further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Restricted Shares, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting, issuance of shares of Stock, the subsequent sale of shares of Stock acquired under the Plan and the receipt of any dividends; and (b) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Restricted Shares to reduce or eliminate Employee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if Employee is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction between the Grant Date and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Employee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

Prior to the relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Employee agrees to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, unless otherwise approved by the Committee, the Company shall satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by either (i) withholding from Employee’s wages or other cash compensation payable to Employee by the Company and/or the Employer, (ii) reacquiring and withholding a number of shares of Stock from the Restricted Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld or (iii) permitting Employee to tender to the Company cash (including check, bank draft or money order delivered to the Company’s Stock Plan Administrator) or, if allowed by the Committee, shares of Stock previously acquired by Employee having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Employee is subject to Section 16 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, pursuant to Rule 16a-2 promulgated thereunder, any Tax-Related Items withholding obligations shall be satisfied by the Company reacquiring and withholding a number of shares of Stock from the Restricted Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld.
Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable statutory withholding rates (as determined by the Company in good faith and in its sole discretion) or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates. In the event of over-withholding, Employee may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash (with no entitlement to the share equivalent), or if not refunded, Employee may seek a refund from the local tax authorities. In the event of under-withholding, Employee may be required to pay any additional Tax-Related Items directly to the applicable tax authority or to the Company and/or the Employer.
Employee agrees to pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of Employee’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver shares of Stock or proceeds from the sale of shares of Stock until arrangements satisfactory to the Company have been made in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

8.Status of Stock. Employee agrees that the Restricted Shares will not be sold or otherwise disposed of in any manner which would constitute a violation of any applicable U.S. federal or state securities laws. Employee also agrees (i) that the Company may refuse to register the transfer of the Restricted Shares on the stock transfer records of the Company if such proposed transfer would in the opinion of counsel to the Company constitute a violation of any applicable securities law, and (ii) that the Company may give related instructions to its transfer agent, if any, to stop registration of the transfer of the Restricted Shares.




9.Nature of Grant. Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to constitute or create a contract of employment, nor shall it constitute or create the right to remain associated with or in the employ of the Company and its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies for any particular period of time. This Agreement shall not interfere in any way with the Company’s right to terminate Employee’s employment at any time. For purposes of this Agreement, Employee shall be considered in the employment of the Company as long as Employee remains an employee of either the Company, any successor corporation or a parent or subsidiary corporation (as defined in Section 424 of the Code) of the Company or any successor corporation. Any question as to whether and when there has been a termination of such employment, and the cause of such termination, shall be determined by the Committee, or its delegate, as appropriate, and its determination shall be final. Furthermore, this Agreement, the Plan, and any other Plan documents are not part of Employee’s employment contract, if any, and do not guarantee either Employee’s right to receive any future grants under such Agreement or the Plan or the inclusion of the value of any grants in the calculation of severance payments, if any, upon termination of employment.

10.Data Privacy. Employee understands that the Company, its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies and/or the Employer may hold certain personal information about Employee, specifically: Employee’s name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social security or insurance number, passport number or other identification number, salary, nationality, and any shares of Stock or directorships held in the Company, and details of the Restricted Shares or any other entitlement to shares of Stock, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Employee’s favor (“Data”), for the purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan. More information about how the Company collects, processes, protects, and transfers Data, as well as the rights of Employees in relation to their Data, is found in the Employee Privacy Notice available on HalWorld.

Employee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of Employee’s Data as described in this Agreement and any other grant materials by and among, as necessary and applicable, the Company and any of its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies, for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing Employee’s participation in the Plan.

Employee understands that Data will be transferred to the stock brokerage or other financial or administrative services firm designated by the Company (the “Stock Plan Administrator”) which is assisting the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. Employee authorizes the Company, the Company’s Stock Plan Administrator and any other possible recipients that may assist the Company (presently or in the future) with implementing, administering and managing the Plan to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer Data, in electronic or other form, for the sole purpose of implementing, administering and managing Employee’s participation in the Plan. Further, Employee understands that Employee is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If Employee does not consent, or if Employee later seeks to revoke his or her consent, Employee’s service status and career will not be affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing Employee’s consent is that the Company would not be able to grant Employee the Restricted Shares or other equity awards or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, Employee understands that refusing or withdrawing his or her consent may affect Employee’s ability to participate in the Plan.
11.Insider Trading; Market Abuse Laws. By participating in the Plan, Employee agrees to comply with the Company’s policy on insider trading. Employee further acknowledges that, depending on Employee’s or his or her broker’s country of residence or where the shares of Stock are listed, Employee may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws that may affect Employee’s ability to accept, acquire, sell or otherwise dispose of shares of Stock, rights to shares of Stock (e.g., restricted shares) or rights linked to the value of shares of Stock, during such times Employee is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company as defined by the laws or regulations in Employee’s country. Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders Employee places before he or she possessed inside information. Furthermore, Employee could be prohibited from (i) disclosing the inside information to any third party (other than on a “need to know” basis) and (ii) ”tipping” third parties or causing them otherwise to buy or sell securities. Employee understands that third parties include fellow employees. Any restriction under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company insider trading policy. Employee acknowledges that it is Employee’s responsibility



to comply with any applicable restrictions, and that Employee should therefore consult Employee’s personal advisor on this matter.

12.Electronic Delivery and Participation. Employee agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, in lieu of receiving documents in paper format, to accept electronic delivery of any documents that the Company and its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies may deliver in connection with this grant and any other grants offered by the Company, including prospectuses, grant notifications, account statements, annual or quarterly reports, and other communications. Electronic delivery of a document may be made via the Company’s email system or by reference to a location on the Company’s intranet or website or a website of the Company’s agent administering the Plan. By accepting this grant, whether electronically or otherwise, Employee also hereby consents to participate in the Plan through such system, intranet, or website, including but not limited to the use of electronic signatures or click-through electronic acceptance of terms and conditions.

13.English Language. Employee acknowledges and agrees that it is Employee’s express intent that this Agreement and the Plan and all other documents, notices and legal proceedings entered into, given or instituted pursuant to the Restricted Shares be drawn up in English. Employee acknowledges that Employee is sufficiently proficient in English, or has consulted with an advisor who is sufficiently proficient in English, so as to allow Employee to understand the terms and conditions of this Agreement. To the extent Employee has been provided with a copy of this Agreement, the Plan, or any other documents relating to this Award in a language other than English, the English language documents will prevail in case of any ambiguities or divergences as a result of translation.

14.Compliance with Law. Employee agrees to take any and all actions, and consent to any and all actions taken by the Company and any of its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies, as may be required to allow the Company and any of its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies to comply with local laws, rules and/or regulations in Employee’s country of employment (and country of residence, if different). Finally, Employee agrees to take any and all actions as may be required to comply with Employee’s personal obligations under local laws, rules and/or regulations in Employee’s country of employment and country of residence, if different).

15.Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on Employee’s participation in the Plan and on the Restricted Shares, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require Employee to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.

16.Committee’s Powers. No provision contained in this Agreement shall in any way terminate, modify or alter, or be construed or interpreted as terminating, modifying or altering, any of the powers, rights or authority vested in the Committee or, to the extent delegated, in its delegate, pursuant to the terms of the Plan or resolutions adopted in furtherance of the Plan, including, without limitation, the right to make certain determinations and elections with respect to the Restricted Shares.

17.Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors to the Company and all persons lawfully claiming under Employee.

18.Governing Law and Forum.
a.Except as set forth in Paragraph 18(c), this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Texas without regard to principles of conflict of laws, except to the extent that it implicates matters which are the subject of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, which matters shall be governed by the latter law.
b.For purposes of resolving any dispute that may arise directly or indirectly from this Agreement, the parties hereby agree that any such dispute that cannot be resolved by the parties shall be submitted for resolution through the Halliburton Dispute Resolution Program, pursuant to which the last step is final and binding arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that in addition to any other rights or remedies they may have, that either party shall be entitled, if it so elects, to institute a proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction to obtain a preliminary injunction (with each waiving the other’s obligation, if any, to post bond) in order to prevent activities in violation of the Agreement and to maintain the status quo pending resolution of the parties’ dispute in accordance with the Halliburton Dispute Resolution Program.



c.If Employee’s ongoing (not temporary or business travel) assignment is in California, Colorado, Louisiana or North Dakota, then Paragraph 5 shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of California, Colorado, Louisiana or North Dakota, respectively.

19.U.S. Federal Defend Trade Secrets Act Notice. Employee is hereby notified in accordance with the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016 that Employee will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any U.S. federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in confidence to a U.S. federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or is made in a complaint or other document that is filed under seal in a lawsuit or other proceeding. If Employee files a lawsuit for retaliation against the Company for reporting a suspected violation of law, Employee may disclose the Company’s trade secrets to the Employee’s attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding if the Employee files any document containing the trade secret under seal, and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.

20.Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are severable and if any one or more of the provisions are determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, the Agreement shall be reformed and construed so that it would be enforceable to the maximum extent legally possible, and if it cannot be so reformed and construed, as if such unenforceable provision, or part thereof, had never been contained herein. The covenant in Paragraph 5 of this Agreement shall be separate, independent and concurrently enforceable with other employee agreements that have been signed by Employee. In the event such provisions of an agreement is determined by an adjudicator as not to be enforceable, any other concurrently enforceable provisions may still be enforced.

21.Waiver. The waiver by the Company with respect to Employee’s (or any other participant’s) compliance with any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by such party of a provision of this Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Agreement to be duly executed by an officer thereunto duly authorized as of the date first above written.

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT (International)


Grant Date:                            <<Grant Date>>

Grantee (“Employee”):                        <<Participant Name>>

Aggregate Number of Units Subject to Award:            <<Number_Restricted_Units>>



This RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made as of <<Grant Date>>, between HALLIBURTON COMPANY, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and <<Participant Name>> (“Employee”).

1.Award of Units. Pursuant to the Halliburton Company Stock and Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”), Employee is hereby awarded the aggregate number of units subject to award set forth above evidencing the right to receive an equivalent number of shares of Company common stock, par value USD 2.50 per share (“Stock”), subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan. The units granted pursuant to this Agreement that are referred to as the “Restricted Stock Units”.

2.Plan Incorporated. Employee acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and agrees that this award of Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan, including future amendments thereto. The Plan is incorporated herein by reference as a part of this Agreement. Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms shall have the same meaning ascribed to them under the Plan.

3.Vesting of Restricted Stock Units; Forfeiture of Restricted Stock Units.

(a)Vesting Schedule. The Restricted Stock Units shall vest in accordance with the vesting details for this grant displayed in the Distribution Schedule in Employee’s account at www.NetBenefits.Fidelity.com, provided that Employee has been continuously and actively employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies from the date of this Agreement through the applicable vesting date.

(b)Accelerated Vesting. The Restricted Stock Units shall become fully vested on the earlier of (i) the date of Employee’s Qualifying Termination (as such term is defined in the Plan), or (ii) the date Employee’s employment with the Company is terminated by reason of death or disability (as determined by the Company). In the event Employee’s employment is terminated for any other reason, including retirement (as determined by the Company), upon the recommendation of applicable management of the Company and/or business unit, the Committee which administers the Plan (the “Committee”) or its delegate, as appropriate, may, in the Committee’s or such delegate’s sole discretion, approve the acceleration of the vesting of any or all Restricted Stock Units, such vesting to be effective on the date of such approval or Employee’s Termination Date (as defined below), if later.

(c)Forfeiture of Restricted Stock Units. In the event of a termination of Employee’s employment with the Company or any Subsidiary or affiliated companies for any reason except as otherwise provided in this Paragraph 3, Employee shall, for no consideration, forfeit all Restricted Stock Units to the extent they are not fully vested as of the Termination Date. For the avoidance of doubt, “Termination Date” for purposes of this award will be deemed to occur as of the date Employee is no longer actively providing services as an employee, unless otherwise determined by the Company in its sole discretion, and no vesting shall continue during any notice period that may be specified under contract or applicable law with respect to such termination, including any “garden leave” or similar period, except as may otherwise be permitted in the Company’s sole discretion.






4.Settlement of Restricted Stock Units. Upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, payment shall be made as soon as administratively practicable but in no event later than 60 days after the vesting date. The Company, in its sole discretion, may provide for settlement in the form of:

(a)shares of Stock; or

(b)a cash payment in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the shares of Stock that correspond to the vested Restricted Stock Units, to the extent that settlement in shares of Stock (i) is prohibited under local law, (ii) would require Employee, the Company or any Subsidiary or affiliated company to obtain the approval of any governmental or regulatory body in Employee’s country of employment (or residence, if different), (iii) would result in adverse tax consequences to Employee, the Company, or any Subsidiary or affiliated company, or (iv) is administratively burdensome.

If the Company settles the Restricted Stock Units in shares of Stock, it may require Employee to sell such shares of Stock immediately or within a specified period following Employee’s termination of employment (in which case Employee hereby agrees that the Company shall have the authority to issue sale instructions in relation to such shares of Stock on Employee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization).

5.Shareholder Rights. Employee shall have no rights to dividends, dividend equivalents or any other rights of a shareholder with respect to the shares of Stock subject to this award of Restricted Stock Units unless and until such time as the award has been settled by the transfer of shares of Stock to Employee.

6.Non-Transferability. The Restricted Stock Units may not be sold, assigned, pledged, exchanged, hypothecated, encumbered, disposed of, or otherwise transferred, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a “qualified domestic relations order” as defined by the Code or Title I of the U.S. Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or similar order. Upon any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of the Restricted Stock Units or of such rights contrary to the provisions hereof or in the Plan, the Restricted Stock Units and such rights shall immediately become null and void.

7.Withholding of Tax. Employee acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company or, if different, the Subsidiary or affiliated company that employs Employee (the “Employer”), the ultimate liability for all income tax, social contributions, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account, hypothetical tax or other tax-related items related to Employee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to Employee or deemed by the Company or the Employer in their discretion to be an appropriate charge to Employee, even if legally applicable to the Company or the Employer (“Tax-Related Items”), is and remains Employee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer, if any. Employee further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting, the subsequent sale of shares of Stock acquired pursuant to such vesting and the receipt of any dividends; and (b) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units to reduce or eliminate Employee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if Employee is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction between the Grant Date and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Employee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

Prior to the relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Employee agrees to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, Employee authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following: (i) withholding from Employee’s wages or other cash compensation payable to Employee by the Company and/or the Employer; (ii) withholding from the shares of Stock to be delivered upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units or other awards granted to Employee having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld; (iii) withholding from the proceeds of the sale of shares of Stock acquired upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on Employee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization without further consent); or (iv) permitting Employee to tender



to the Company cash (including check, bank draft or money order delivered to the Company’s Stock Plan Administrator) or, if allowed by the Committee, shares of Stock previously acquired by Employee having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Employee is subject to Section 16 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, pursuant to Rule 16a-2 promulgated thereunder, any tax withholding obligations shall be satisfied by having the Company withhold a number of shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld from the shares of Stock to be delivered upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units.
Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable statutory withholding rates (as determined by the Company in good faith and in its sole discretion) or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates. In the event of over-withholding, Employee may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash (with no entitlement to the equivalent in shares of Stock), or if not refunded, Employee may seek a refund from the local tax authorities. In the event of under-withholding, Employee may be required to pay any additional Tax-Related Items directly to the applicable tax authority or to the Company and/or the Employer. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding from the shares of Stock to be delivered upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, for tax purposes, Employee is deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Stock subject to the Restricted Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of shares of Stock are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items. Employee will have no further rights with respect to any shares of Stock that are retained by the Company pursuant to this provision.
Employee agrees to pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of Employee’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver shares of Stock or proceeds from the sale of shares of Stock until arrangements satisfactory to the Company have been made in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

8.Status of Shares of Stock. The Company shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Stock pursuant to any Restricted Stock Units at any time, when the offering of the shares of Stock covered by such Restricted Stock Unit has not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) or such other country, U.S. federal or state laws, rules or regulations as the Company deems applicable and, in the opinion of legal counsel for the Company, there is no exemption from the registration. The Company intends to use reasonable efforts to ensure that no such delay will occur. In the event exemption from registration under the Act is available upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, Employee, if requested by the Company to do so, will execute and deliver to the Company in writing an agreement containing such provisions as the Company may require to assure compliance with applicable securities laws.

Employee agrees that the shares of Stock which Employee may acquire upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units will not be sold or otherwise disposed of in any manner which would constitute a violation of any applicable U.S. federal, state or non-U.S. securities laws. Employee also agrees (i) that the Company may refuse to register the transfer of the shares of Stock acquired under the Restricted Stock Units on the stock transfer records of the Company if such proposed transfer would in the opinion of counsel to the Company constitute a violation of any applicable securities law, and (ii) that the Company may give related instructions to its transfer agent, if any, to stop registration of the transfer of the shares of Stock acquired under the Plan.

9.Nature of Grant. In accepting the Restricted Stock Units, Employee acknowledges and agrees that:

(a)the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company, in its sole discretion, at any time (subject to any limitations set forth in the Plan);
(b)the grant of the Restricted Stock Units is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of restricted stock units, or benefits in lieu of restricted stock units, even if restricted stock units or other awards have been granted in the past;
(c)all decisions with respect to future awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;



(d)Employee’s participation in the Plan is voluntary;
(e)the Restricted Stock Units and Employee’s participation in the Plan shall not create a right to employment or be interpreted as forming an employment contract with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies and shall not interfere with the ability of the Company or the Employer, as applicable, to terminate Employee’s employment relationship (as otherwise may be permitted under local law);
(f)unless otherwise agreed with the Company, the Restricted Stock Units and any shares of Stock acquired upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, and the income from and value of the same, are not granted as consideration for, or in connection with, any service Employee may provide as a director of any Subsidiary or affiliate of the Company;
(g)the Restricted Stock Units and any shares of Stock acquired under the Plan and the income and value of the same are not part of normal or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end-of-service payments, holiday pay, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company, the Employer or any Subsidiary or affiliate of the Company;
(h)the future value of the shares of Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units is unknown, indeterminable, and cannot be predicted with certainty;
(i)upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, the value of such shares of Stock may increase or decrease in value;
(j)no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the Restricted Stock Units resulting from termination of Employee’s employment (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws or later found invalid) and, in consideration of the Restricted Stock Units, Employee agrees not to institute any claim against the Company or the Employer;
(k)the Restricted Stock Units and the benefits evidenced by this Agreement do not create any entitlement not otherwise specifically provided for in the Plan or provided by the Company in its discretion, to have the Restricted Stock Units or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company, nor to be exchanged, cashed out or substituted for, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the shares of Stock; and
(l)neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between Employee’s local currency and the U.S. dollar that may affect the value of the Restricted Stock Units or any amounts due to Employee pursuant to the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units or the subsequent sale of any shares of Stock acquired upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units.
10.Data Privacy. Employee understands that the Company, its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies and/or the Employer may hold certain personal information about Employee, specifically: Employee’s name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social security or insurance number, passport number or other identification number, salary, nationality, and any shares of Stock or directorships held in the Company, and details of the Restricted Stock Units or any other entitlement to shares of Stock, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Employee’s favor (“Data”), for the purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan. More information about how the Company collects, processes, protects, and transfers Data, as well as the rights of Employees in relation to their Data, is found in the Employee Privacy Notice available on HalWorld.

Employee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of Employee’s Data as described in this Agreement and any other grant materials by and among, as necessary and applicable, the Company and any of its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies, for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing Employee’s participation in the Plan.



Employee understands that Data will be transferred to the stock brokerage or other financial or administrative services firm designated by the Company (the “Stock Plan Administrator”) which is assisting the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. Employee authorizes the Company, the Company’s Stock Plan Administrator and any other possible recipients that may assist the Company (presently or in the future) with implementing, administering and managing the Plan to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer Data, in electronic or other form, for the sole purpose of implementing, administering and managing Employee’s participation in the Plan. Further, Employee understands that Employee is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If Employee does not consent, or if Employee later seeks to revoke his or her consent, Employee’s service status and career will not be affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing Employee’s consent is that the Company would not be able to grant Employee the Restricted Stock Units or other equity awards or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, Employee understands that refusing or withdrawing his or her consent may affect Employee’s ability to participate in the Plan.
11.Insider Trading; Market Abuse Laws. By participating in the Plan, Employee agrees to comply with the Company’s policy on insider trading. Employee further acknowledges that, depending on Employee’s or his or her broker’s country of residence or where the shares of Stock are listed, Employee may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws that may affect Employee’s ability to accept, acquire, sell or otherwise dispose of shares of Stock, rights to shares of Stock (e.g., restricted stock units) or rights linked to the value of shares of Stock, during such times Employee is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company as defined by the laws or regulations in Employee’s country. Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders Employee places before he or she possessed inside information. Furthermore, Employee could be prohibited from (i) disclosing the inside information to any third party (other than on a “need to know” basis) and (ii) ”tipping” third parties or causing them otherwise to buy or sell securities. Employee understands that third parties include fellow employees. Any restriction under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company insider trading policy. Employee acknowledges that it is Employee’s responsibility to comply with any applicable restrictions, and that Employee should therefore consult Employee’s personal advisor on this matter.

12.Electronic Delivery and Participation. Employee agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, in lieu of receiving documents in paper format, to accept electronic delivery of any documents that the Company and its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies may deliver in connection with this grant and any other grants offered by the Company, including prospectuses, grant notifications, account statements, annual or quarterly reports, and other communications. Electronic delivery of a document may be made via the Company’s email system or by reference to a location on the Company’s intranet or website or a website of the Company’s agent administering the Plan. By accepting this grant, whether electronically or otherwise, Employee also hereby consents to participate in the Plan through such system, intranet, or website, including but not limited to the use of electronic signatures or click-through electronic acceptance of terms and conditions.

13.English Language. Employee acknowledges and agrees that it is Employee’s express intent that this Agreement and the Plan and all other documents, notices and legal proceedings entered into, given or instituted pursuant to the Restricted Stock Units be drawn up in English. Employee acknowledges that Employee is sufficiently proficient in English, or has consulted with an advisor who is sufficiently proficient in English, so as to allow Employee to understand the terms and conditions of this Agreement. To the extent Employee has been provided with a copy of this Agreement, the Plan, or any other documents relating to this Award in a language other than English, the English language documents will prevail in case of any ambiguities or divergences as a result of translation.

14.Addendum.

Moreover, if Employee transfers to one of the countries included in such Addendum, the special terms and conditions for such country will apply to Employee, to the extent the Company determines that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable to comply with local law or to facilitate the administration of the Plan (or the Company may establish alternative terms and conditions as may be necessary or advisable to accommodate Employee’s transfer). The Addendum constitutes part of this Agreement.

15.Not a Public Offering. The award of the Restricted Stock Units is not intended to be a public offering of securities in Employee’s country of employment (or country of residence, if different). The

No employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies is permitted to advise Employee on whether he/she should participate in the Plan. Acquiring shares of Stock involves a degree of risk. Before deciding to participate in the Plan, Employee should carefully consider all risk factors relevant to the acquisition of shares of Stock under the Plan and carefully review all of the materials related to the Restricted Stock Units and the Plan. In addition, Employee should consult with his/her personal advisor for professional investment advice.

Finally, Employee agrees to take any and all actions as may be required to comply with Employee’s personal obligations under local laws, rules and/or regulations in Employee’s country of employment and country of residence, if different).

17.Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on Employee’s participation in the Plan, on the Restricted Stock Units, and on any shares of Stock acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require Employee to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.

18.Committee’s Powers. No provision contained in this Agreement shall in any way terminate, modify or alter, or be construed or interpreted as terminating, modifying or altering any of the powers, rights or authority vested in the Committee or, to the extent delegated, in its delegate, pursuant to the terms of the Plan or resolutions adopted in furtherance of the Plan, including, without limitation, the right to make certain determinations and elections with respect to the Restricted Stock Units.

19.Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors to the Company and all persons lawfully claiming under Employee.

20.Governing Law and Forum. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Texas without regard to principles of conflict of laws, except to the extent that it implicates matters which are the subject of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, which matters shall be governed by the latter law. For purposes of resolving any dispute that may arise directly or indirectly from this Agreement, the parties hereby agree that any such dispute that cannot be resolved by the parties shall be submitted for resolution through the Halliburton Dispute Resolution Program, pursuant to which the last step is final and binding arbitration.

21.Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are severable and if any one or more of the provisions are determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, the Agreement shall be reformed and construed so that it would be enforceable to the maximum extent legally possible, and if it cannot be so reformed and construed, as if such unenforceable provision, or part thereof, had never been contained herein.

22.Waiver. The waiver by the Company with respect to Employee’s (or any other participant’s) compliance with any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by such party of a provision of this Agreement.




Halliburton Company
Stock and Incentive Plan (the “Plan”)
Restricted Stock Unit Grant Agreement
Country-Specific Addendum
This Addendum includes additional country‐specific notices, disclaimers, and/or terms and conditions that may apply if Employee lives and/or works in one of the countries listed in this Addendum and that may be material to Employee’s participation in the Plan. This information is based on applicable securities, foreign exchange and other laws that may subject Employee to obligations that Employee solely is responsible for. However, such laws are often complex and change frequently, and the information provided is general in nature and may not apply to Employee’s specific situation. As such, the Company cannot assure Employee of any particular result, and Employee should seek his/her own professional legal and tax advice.

Spain
Securities Law Notice
No “offer of securities to the public,” as defined under Spanish law, has taken place or will take place in the Spanish territory in connection with the grant of the Restricted Stock Units under the Plan. Neither the Plan nor this Agreement have been nor will they be registered with the Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores (Spanish securities regulator), and they do not constitute a public offering prospectus.
Labor Law Acknowledgment
By accepting the Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder, Employee consents to participation in the Plan and acknowledges that Employee has received a copy of the Plan.
Employee understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and in its sole discretion decided to grant any Restricted Stock Units under the Plan to certain individuals who may be employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies throughout the world. The decision is a limited decision, which is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any Restricted Stock Units granted will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any affiliated companies on an ongoing basis, other than as expressly set forth in the Agreement. Consequently, Employee understands that the Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder are given on the assumption and condition that they shall not become a part of any employment contract (either with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. Further, Employee understands and freely accepts that the future value of the Restricted Stock Units and the underlying shares of Stock is unknown and unpredictable. In addition, Employee understands that any Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder would not be made but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, Employee understands, acknowledges and freely accepts that, should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, then any grant of Restricted Stock Units or right to Restricted Stock Units shall be null and void.
Further, the grant of the Restricted Stock Units is expressly conditioned on Employee’s continued and active employment, such that if Employee’s employment terminates for any reason whatsoever, the Restricted Stock Units may cease vesting immediately, in whole or in part, effective on the Termination Date (unless otherwise specifically provided in the Agreement). This will be the case, for example, even if (i) Employee is considered to be unfairly dismissed without good cause (i.e., subject to a “despido improcedente”); (ii) Employee is dismissed for disciplinary or objective reasons or due to a collective dismissal; (iii) Employee terminates employment due to a change of work location, duties or any other employment or contractual condition; (iv) Employee terminates employment due to a unilateral breach of contract by the Company or the Employer; or (v) Employee’s employment terminates for any other reason whatsoever. Consequently, upon termination of Employee’s employment for any of the above reasons, Employee may automatically lose any rights to the Restricted Stock Units that were not vested on the Employee’s Termination Date, as described in the Agreement and the Plan.
Exchange Control Information
To participate in the Plan, Employee must comply with exchange control regulations in Spain. Employee is required to declare electronically to the Bank of Spain any securities accounts (including brokerage accounts held abroad), as well as the shares of Stock held in such accounts, depending on the value of the transactions during the prior tax year or the balances in such accounts as of December 31 of the prior tax year.
If Employee holds 10% or more of the share capital of the Company or such other amount that would entitle Employee to join the Board, the acquisition, ownership and disposition of stock in a foreign company (including shares of Stock) must be declared for statistical purposes to the Spanish Dirección General de Comercio e Inversiones, the Bureau for Commerce and Investments, which is a department of the Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness.  In this case, the declaration must be made in January for shares of Stock acquired or disposed of during the prior year and/or for shares of Stock owned as of December 31 of the prior year; however, if the value of the shares of Stock acquired or sold exceeds €1,502,530, the declaration must be filed within one month of the acquisition or disposition, as applicable.
Foreign Asset and Account Reporting
Employee understands that if Employee holds assets (e.g., shares of Stock or cash held in a bank or brokerage account) outside of Spain with a value in excess of a certain threshold (currently EUR 50,000) per type of asset (e.g., shares of Stock, cash, etc.) as of December 31, Employee is required to report certain information regarding such assets on tax Form 720. After such assets are initially reported, the reporting obligation will only apply for subsequent years if the value of any previously-reported assets increases by more than a specified amount (currently EUR 20,000) or if Employee sells or otherwise disposes of previously-reported assets. The reporting must be completed by the following March 31.

United Kingdom
Withholding of Taxes
This provision shall supplement Paragraph 7 of the Agreement:
Without limitation to Paragraph 7 of the Agreement, Employee agrees that Employee is liable for all Tax-Related Items and hereby covenants to pay all such Tax-Related Items, as and when requested by the Company, the Employer or by Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (“HMRC”) (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority). Employee also agrees to indemnify and keep indemnified the Company and the Employer against any Tax-Related Items that they are required to pay or withhold or have paid or will pay on Employee’s behalf to HMRC (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Employee is a director or executive officer (as within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), the terms of the immediately foregoing provision will not apply. In the event that Employee is a director or executive officer and income tax due is not collected from or paid by Employee within ninety (90) days after the U.K. tax year in which an event giving rise to the indemnification described above occurs, the amount of any uncollected tax may constitute a benefit to Employee on which additional income tax and national insurance contributions may be payable. Employee acknowledges that Employee ultimately will be responsible for reporting and paying any income tax due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime and for paying the Company or the Employer (as applicable) the amount of any employee national insurance contributions due on this additional benefit, which the Company and/or the Employer may recover from Employee at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to in Paragraph 7 of the Agreement.
Exclusion of Claim
Employee acknowledges and agrees that Employee will have no entitlement to compensation or damages insofar as such entitlement arises or may arise from Employee ceasing to have rights under or to be entitled to Restricted Stock Units, whether or not as a result of termination of employment (whether such termination is in breach of contract or otherwise), or from the loss or diminution in value of the Restricted Stock Units. Upon the grant of the Restricted Stock Units, Employee shall be deemed to have waived irrevocably such entitlement.

Following the sale of shares of Stock acquired under the Plan, Employee may be subject to certain restrictions and compliance duties if Employee attempts to transfer such cash proceeds into Venezuela. Employee is personally responsible for complying with applicable exchange control requirements in Venezuela.
Labor Law Acknowledgment
Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Plan, as well as any benefits or advantages Employee might eventually receive as a result of the receipt and sale of any shares of Stock, constitute commercial items governed by the commercial laws of the United States and will be the result of market forces driving the price of the shares of Stock which are not dependent upon Employee’s performance as an employee and, as result, will not constitute part of Employee’s salary for any purposes.

(b)Accelerated Vesting. The Restricted Stock Units shall become fully vested on the earlier of (i) the date of Employee’s Qualifying Termination (as such term is defined in the Plan), or (ii) the date Employee’s employment with the Company is terminated by reason of death or disability (as determined by the Company). In the event Employee’s employment is terminated for any other reason, including retirement (as determined by the Company), upon the recommendation of applicable management of the Company and/or business unit, the Committee which administers the Plan (the “Committee”) or its delegate, as appropriate, may, in the Committee’s or such delegate’s sole discretion, approve the acceleration of the vesting of any or all Restricted Stock Units, such vesting to be effective on the date of such approval or Employee’s Termination Date (as defined below), if later.

6.Shareholder Rights. Employee shall have no rights to dividends, dividend equivalents or any other rights of a shareholder with respect to the shares of Stock subject to this award of Restricted Stock Units unless and until such time as the award has been settled by the transfer of shares of Stock to Employee.

7.Non-Transferability. The Restricted Stock Units may not be sold, assigned, pledged, exchanged, hypothecated, encumbered, disposed of, or otherwise transferred, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a “qualified domestic relations order” as defined by the Code or Title I of the U.S. Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or similar order. Upon any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of the Restricted Stock Units or of such rights contrary to the provisions hereof or in the Plan, the Restricted Stock Units and such rights shall immediately become null and void.

8.Withholding of Tax. Employee acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company or, if different, the Subsidiary or affiliated company that employs Employee (the “Employer”), the ultimate liability for all income tax, social contributions, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account, hypothetical tax or other tax-related items related to Employee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to Employee or deemed by the Company or the Employer in their discretion to be an appropriate charge to Employee even if legally applicable to the Company or the Employer (“Tax-Related Items”), is and remains Employee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer, if any. Employee further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting, the subsequent sale of shares of Stock acquired pursuant to such vesting and the receipt of any dividends; and (b) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units to reduce or eliminate Employee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if Employee is subject to Tax-Related Items in more





than one jurisdiction between the Grant Date and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Employee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

Prior to the relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Employee agrees to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, Employee authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following: (i) withholding from Employee’s wages or other cash compensation payable to Employee by the Company and/or the Employer; (ii) withholding from the shares of Stock to be delivered upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units or other awards granted to Employee having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld; (iii) withholding from the proceeds of the sale of shares of Stock acquired upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on Employee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization without further consent); or (iv) permitting Employee to tender to the Company cash (including check, bank draft or money order delivered to the Company’s Stock Plan Administrator) or, if allowed by the Committee, shares of Stock previously acquired by Employee having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Employee is subject to Section 16 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, pursuant to Rule 16a-2 promulgated thereunder, any tax withholding obligations shall be satisfied by having the Company withhold a number of shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld from the shares of Stock to be delivered upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units.
Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable statutory withholding rates (as determined by the Company in good faith and in its sole discretion) or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates. In the event of over-withholding, Employee may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash (with no entitlement to the equivalent in shares of Stock), or if not refunded, Employee may seek a refund from the local tax authorities. In the event of under-withholding, Employee may be required to pay any additional Tax-Related Items directly to the applicable tax authority or to the Company and/or the Employer. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding from the shares of Stock to be delivered upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, for tax purposes, Employee is deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Stock subject to the Restricted Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of shares of Stock are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items. Employee will have no further rights with respect to any shares of Stock that are retained by the Company pursuant to this provision.
Employee agrees to pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of Employee’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver shares of Stock or proceeds from the sale of shares of Stock until arrangements satisfactory to the Company have been made in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

9.Status of Shares of Stock. The Company shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Stock pursuant to any Restricted Stock Units at any time, when the offering of the shares of Stock covered by such Restricted Stock Unit has not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) or such other country, U.S. federal or state laws, rules or regulations as the Company deems applicable and, in the opinion of legal counsel for the Company, there is no exemption from the registration. The Company intends to use reasonable efforts to ensure that no such delay will occur. In the event exemption from registration under the Act is available upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, Employee, if requested by the Company to do so, will execute and deliver to the Company in writing an agreement containing such provisions as the Company may require to assure compliance with applicable securities laws.

Employee agrees that the shares of Stock which Employee may acquire upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units will not be sold or otherwise disposed of in any manner which would constitute a violation of any applicable U.S. federal, state or non-U.S. securities laws. Employee also agrees (i) that the Company may refuse to register the transfer of the shares of Stock acquired under the Restricted Stock Units on the stock transfer records of the Company if such proposed transfer would in the opinion of counsel to the Company constitute a violation of any applicable securities law, and (ii) that the Company may give related instructions to its transfer agent, if any, to stop registration of the transfer of the shares of Stock acquired under the Plan.

10.Nature of Grant. In accepting the Restricted Stock Units, Employee acknowledges and agrees that:

(a)the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company, in its sole discretion, at any time (subject to any limitations set forth in the Plan);





(b)the grant of the Restricted Stock Units is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of restricted stock units, or benefits in lieu of restricted stock units, even if restricted stock units or other awards have been granted in the past;
(c)all decisions with respect to future awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;
(d)Employee’s participation in the Plan is voluntary;
(e)the Restricted Stock Units and Employee’s participation in the Plan shall not create a right to employment or be interpreted as forming an employment contract with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies and shall not interfere with the ability of the Company or the Employer, as applicable, to terminate Employee’s employment relationship (as otherwise may be permitted under local law);
(f)unless otherwise agreed with the Company, the Restricted Stock Units and any shares of Stock acquired upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, and the income from and value of the same, are not granted as consideration for, or in connection with, any service Employee may provide as a director of any Subsidiary or affiliate of the Company;
(g)the Restricted Stock Units and any shares of Stock acquired under the Plan and the income and value of the same are not part of normal or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end-of-service payments, holiday pay, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company, the Employer or any Subsidiary or affiliate of the Company;
(h)the future value of the shares of Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units is unknown, indeterminable, and cannot be predicted with certainty;
(i)upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, the value of such shares of Stock may increase or decrease in value;
(j)no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the Restricted Stock Units resulting from termination of Employee’s employment (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws or later found invalid) and, in consideration of the Restricted Stock Units, Employee agrees not to institute any claim against the Company or the Employer;
(k)the Restricted Stock Units and the benefits evidenced by this Agreement do not create any entitlement not otherwise specifically provided for in the Plan or provided by the Company in its discretion, to have the Restricted Stock Units or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company, nor to be exchanged, cashed out or substituted for, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the shares of Stock; and
(l)neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between Employee’s local currency and the U.S. dollar that may affect the value of the Restricted Stock Units or any amounts due to Employee pursuant to the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units or the subsequent sale of any shares of Stock acquired upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units.
11.Data Privacy. Employee understands that the Company, its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies and/or the Employer may hold certain personal information about Employee, specifically: Employee’s name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social security or insurance number, passport number or other identification number, salary, nationality, and any shares of Stock or directorships held in the Company, and details of the Restricted Stock Units or any other entitlement to shares of Stock, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Employee’s favor (“Data”), for the purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan. More information about how the Company collects, processes, protects, and transfers Data, as well as the rights of Employees in relation to their Data, is found in the Employee Privacy Notice available on HalWorld.

Employee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of Employee’s Data as described in this Agreement and any other grant materials by and among, as necessary and applicable, the Company and any of its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies, for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing Employee’s participation in the Plan.






Employee understands that Data will be transferred to the stock brokerage or other financial or administrative services firm designated by the Company (the “Stock Plan Administrator”) which is assisting the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. Employee authorizes the Company, the Company’s Stock Plan Administrator and any other possible recipients that may assist the Company (presently or in the future) with implementing, administering and managing the Plan to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer Data, in electronic or other form, for the sole purpose of implementing, administering and managing Employee’s participation in the Plan. Further, Employee understands that Employee is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If Employee does not consent, or if Employee later seeks to revoke his or her consent, Employee’s service status and career will not be affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing Employee’s consent is that the Company would not be able to grant Employee the Restricted Stock Units or other equity awards or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, Employee understands that refusing or withdrawing his or her consent may affect Employee’s ability to participate in the Plan.
12.Insider Trading; Market Abuse Laws. By participating in the Plan, Employee agrees to comply with the Company’s policy on insider trading. Employee further acknowledges that, depending on Employee’s or his or her broker’s country of residence or where the shares of Stock are listed, Employee may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws that may affect Employee’s ability to accept, acquire, sell or otherwise dispose of shares of Stock, rights to shares of Stock (e.g., restricted stock units) or rights linked to the value of shares of Stock, during such times Employee is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company as defined by the laws or regulations in Employee’s country. Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders Employee places before he or she possessed inside information. Furthermore, Employee could be prohibited from (i) disclosing the inside information to any third party (other than on a “need to know” basis) and (ii) ”tipping” third parties or causing them otherwise to buy or sell securities. Employee understands that third parties include fellow employees. Any restriction under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company insider trading policy. Employee acknowledges that it is Employee’s responsibility to comply with any applicable restrictions, and that Employee should therefore consult Employee’s personal advisor on this matter.

13.Electronic Delivery and Participation. Employee agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, in lieu of receiving documents in paper format, to accept electronic delivery of any documents that the Company and its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies may deliver in connection with this grant and any other grants offered by the Company, including prospectuses, grant notifications, account statements, annual or quarterly reports, and other communications. Electronic delivery of a document may be made via the Company’s email system or by reference to a location on the Company’s intranet or website or a website of the Company’s agent administering the Plan. By accepting this grant, whether electronically or otherwise, Employee also hereby consents to participate in the Plan through such system, intranet, or website, including but not limited to the use of electronic signatures or click-through electronic acceptance of terms and conditions.

14.English Language. Employee acknowledges and agrees that it is Employee’s express intent that this Agreement and the Plan and all other documents, notices and legal proceedings entered into, given or instituted pursuant to the Restricted Stock Units be drawn up in English. Employee acknowledges that Employee is sufficiently proficient in English, or has consulted with an advisor who is sufficiently proficient in English, so as to allow Employee to understand the terms and conditions of this Agreement. To the extent Employee has been provided with a copy of this Agreement, the Plan, or any other documents relating to this Award in a language other than English, the English language documents will prevail in case of any ambiguities or divergences as a result of translation.

The Addendum constitutes part of this Agreement.

16.Not a Public Offering. The award of the Restricted Stock Units is not intended to be a public offering of securities in Employee’s country of employment (or country of residence, if different).

No employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies is permitted to advise Employee on whether he/she should participate in the Plan. Acquiring shares of Stock involves a degree of risk. Before deciding to participate in the Plan, Employee should carefully consider all risk factors relevant to the acquisition of shares of Stock under the Plan and carefully review all of the materials





related to the Restricted Stock Units and the Plan. In addition, Employee should consult with his/her personal advisor for professional investment advice.

17.Repatriation; Compliance with Law. Employee agrees to repatriate all payments attributable to the shares of Stock and/or cash acquired under the Plan in accordance with applicable foreign exchange rules and regulations in Employee’s country of employment (and country of residence, if different).

Finally, Employee agrees to take any and all actions as may be required to comply with Employee’s personal obligations under local laws, rules and/or regulations in Employee’s country of employment and country of residence, if different).

18.Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on Employee’s participation in the Plan, on the Restricted Stock Units, and on any shares of Stock acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require Employee to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.

No provision contained in this Agreement shall in any way terminate, modify or alter, or be construed or interpreted as terminating, modifying or altering any of the powers, rights or authority vested in the Committee or, to the extent delegated, in its delegate, pursuant to the terms of the Plan or resolutions adopted in furtherance of the Plan, including, without limitation, the right to make certain determinations and elections with respect to the Restricted Stock Units.

If Employee files a lawsuit for retaliation against the Company for reporting a suspected violation of law, Employee may disclose the Company’s trade secrets to the Employee’s attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding if the Employee files any document containing the trade secret under seal, and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.

23.Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are severable and if any one or more of the provisions are determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, the Agreement shall be reformed and construed so that it would be enforceable to the maximum extent legally possible, and if it cannot be so reformed and construed, as if such unenforceable provision, or part thereof, had never been contained herein. The covenant in Paragraph 5 of this Agreement shall be separate, independent and concurrently enforceable with other employee agreements that have been signed by Employee.

For purposes of the Restricted Stock Units, Employee's Termination Date will occur on, and Employee's right (if any) to earn, seek damages in lieu of, vest in or otherwise benefit from any portion of the Restricted Stock Units pursuant to this Agreement will be measured by, the date that is the earliest of:
i.the date Employee's employment with the Employer is terminated for any reason; and
ii.the date Employee receives written notice of termination from the Employer;
regardless of any period during which notice, pay in lieu of notice or related payments or damages are provided or required to be provided under local law. For greater certainty, Employee will not earn or be entitled to any pro-rated vesting for that portion of time before the date on which Employee's right to vest terminates, nor will Employee be entitled to any compensation for lost vesting.

Neither the Company nor its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies shall be liable for any costs, fees, lost interest or dividends or other losses Employee may incur or suffer resulting from the enforcement of the terms of this Addendum or otherwise from the Company’s operation and enforcement of the terms of the Plan, the Agreement, and the Restricted Stock Units in accordance with Chinese law including, without limitation, any applicable rules, regulations, requirements and approvals issued by SAFE.

Further, the grant of the Restricted Stock Units is expressly conditioned on Employee’s continued and active employment, such that if Employee’s employment terminates for any reason whatsoever, the Restricted Stock Units may cease vesting immediately, in whole or in part, effective on the Termination Date (unless otherwise specifically provided in the Agreement). This will be the case, for example, even if (i) Employee is considered to be unfairly dismissed without good cause (i.e., subject to a “despido improcedente”); (ii) Employee is dismissed for disciplinary or objective reasons or due to a collective dismissal; (iii) Employee terminates employment due to a change of work location, duties or any other employment or contractual condition; (iv) Employee terminates employment due to a unilateral breach of contract by the Company or the Employer; or (v) Employee’s employment terminates for any other reason whatsoever. Consequently, upon termination of Employee’s employment for any of the above reasons, Employee may automatically lose any rights to the Restricted Stock Units that were not vested on the Employee’s Termination Date, as described in the Agreement and the Plan.
Exchange Control Information
To participate in the Plan, Employee must comply with exchange control regulations in Spain. Employee is required to declare electronically to the Bank of Spain any securities accounts (including brokerage accounts held abroad), as well as the shares of Stock held in such accounts, depending on the value of the transactions during the prior tax year or the balances in such accounts as of December 31 of the prior tax year.
If Employee holds 10% or more of the share capital of the Company or such other amount that would entitle Employee to join the Board, the acquisition, ownership and disposition of stock in a foreign company (including shares of Stock) must be declared for statistical purposes to the Spanish Dirección General de Comercio e Inversiones, the Bureau for Commerce and Investments, which is a department of the Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness.  In this case, the declaration must be made in January for shares of Stock acquired or disposed of during the prior year and/or for shares of Stock owned as of December 31 of the prior year; however, if the value of the shares of Stock acquired or sold exceeds €1,502,530, the declaration must be filed within one month of the acquisition or disposition, as applicable.
Foreign Asset and Account Reporting
Employee understands that if Employee holds assets (e.g., shares of Stock or cash held in a bank or brokerage account) outside of Spain with a value in excess of a certain threshold (currently EUR 50,000) per type of asset (e.g., shares of Stock, cash, etc.) as of December 31, Employee is required to report certain information regarding such assets on tax Form 720. After such assets are initially reported, the reporting obligation will only apply for subsequent years if the value of any previously-reported assets increases by more than a specified amount (currently EUR 20,000) or if Employee sells or otherwise disposes of previously-reported assets. The reporting must be completed by the following March 31.

Further, Employee must specifically report the inward remittance to the commercial bank in Thailand. Employee is personally responsible for complying with applicable exchange control requirements in Thailand.
Labor Law Acknowledgement
The Agreement and the Plan, including benefits provided thereunder, are separate arrangements between Employee and the Company and are unrelated to Employee’s employment with the Thai Subsidiary.

United Kingdom
Withholding of Taxes
This provision shall supplement Paragraph 8 of the Agreement:
Without limitation to Paragraph 8 of the Agreement, Employee agrees that Employee is liable for all Tax-Related Items and hereby covenants to pay all such Tax-Related Items, as and when requested by the Company, the Employer or by Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (“HMRC”) (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority). Employee also agrees to indemnify and keep indemnified the Company and the Employer against any Tax-Related Items that they are required to pay or withhold or have paid or will pay on Employee’s behalf to HMRC (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Employee is a director or executive officer (as within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), the terms of the immediately foregoing provision will not apply. In the event that Employee is a director or executive officer and income tax due is not collected from or paid by Employee within ninety (90) days after the U.K. tax year in which an event giving rise to the indemnification described above occurs, the amount of any uncollected tax may constitute a benefit to Employee on which additional income tax and national insurance contributions may be payable. Employee acknowledges that Employee ultimately will be responsible for reporting and paying any income tax due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime and for paying the Company or the Employer (as applicable) the amount of any employee national insurance contributions due on this additional benefit, which the Company and/or the Employer may recover from Employee at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to in Paragraph 8 of the Agreement.
Exclusion of Claim
Employee acknowledges and agrees that Employee will have no entitlement to compensation or damages insofar as such entitlement arises or may arise from Employee ceasing to have rights under or to be entitled to Restricted Stock Units, whether or not as a result of termination of employment (whether such termination is in breach of contract or otherwise), or from the loss or diminution in value of the Restricted Stock Units. Upon the grant of the Restricted Stock Units, Employee shall be deemed to have waived irrevocably such entitlement.
Venezuela
Securities Law Notice
The offer of Restricted Stock Units and the shares of Stock that may be issued under the Plan is personal, private, exclusive and non-transferable and is not subject to Venezuelan government securities regulations.
Foreign Exchange Information
Venezuelan exchange control rules may apply in connection with Employee’s participation in the Plan and the transfer of cash proceeds into Venezuela. Following the sale of shares of Stock acquired under the Plan, Employee may be subject to certain restrictions and compliance duties if Employee attempts to transfer such cash proceeds into Venezuela. Employee is personally responsible for complying with applicable exchange control requirements in Venezuela.
Labor Law Acknowledgment
Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Plan, as well as any benefits or advantages Employee might eventually receive as a result of the receipt and sale of any shares of Stock, constitute commercial items governed by the commercial laws of the United States and will be the result of market forces driving the price of the shares of Stock which are not dependent upon Employee’s performance as an employee and, as result, will not constitute part of Employee’s salary for any purposes.






IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Agreement to be duly executed by an officer thereunto duly authorized as of the date first above written.

PERFORMANCE SHARE UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT

Grant Date:    <<Grant Date>>

Grantee (“Employee”):        <<Participant Name>>

Aggregate Number of Performance Share Units Subject to Award (the “Plan Amount”):    <<Number_Units>>



This PERFORMANCE SHARE UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made as of <<Grant Date>>, between HALLIBURTON COMPANY, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and <<Participant Name>> (“Employee”).

1.Award of Units. As a participant in the 2024 cycle (the “2024 Cycle”) of the Halliburton Company Performance Unit Program (the “PUP”), which has been established under the Halliburton Company Stock and Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”), fifty percent of Employee’s payout for the 2024 Cycle will be in the form of shares of Company common stock, par value USD 2.50 per share (“Stock”). Accordingly, Employee is hereby awarded the number of units equal to the Plan Amount, evidencing the right to receive shares of Stock, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the PUP. The units granted pursuant to this Agreement are referred to as the “Performance Share Units”.

2.PUP and Plan Incorporated. Employee acknowledges receipt of a copy of the PUP and Plan and agrees that this award of Performance Share Units shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth in the PUP and Plan, including future amendments thereto. The PUP and Plan are incorporated herein by reference as a part of this Agreement. Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms shall have the same meaning ascribed to them under the PUP and Plan.

3.Determination of the Final Number of Performance Share Units.

(a)Performance Goals and Measures. The 2024 Cycle describes how the final number of Performance Share Units will be calculated according to this Agreement. The final number of Performance Share Units will be between 0% and 250% of the Plan Amount (the “Final Award”) and will be based on the Compensation Committee’s (the “Committee”) determination of (1) the Company’s relative average Return on Capital Employed and (2) a relative Total Shareholder Return modifier (collectively, the “Performance Goals”) over the Performance Period.

(b)Performance Period. The 2024 Cycle begins on January 1, 2024 and ends on December 31, 2026 (the “Performance Period”).

(c)Timing. After the close of the Performance Period, but in no event later than 60 days following the last day of the Performance Period, the Committee shall determine the extent to which the Performance Goals have been achieved in accordance with the 2024 Cycle and will determine the Final Award. Employee must be continuously employed by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company at all times from the Grant Date until the end of the Performance Period in order to receive the Final Award. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Committee determines that the level of achievement of the Performance Goals does not meet the minimum threshold requirement specified in the 2024 Cycle, then all Performance Share Units will be forfeited.

4.Forfeiture of Performance Share Units.

(a)General. Except as provided in this Section 4, if Employee does not remain continuously employed by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company until the end of the Performance Period, Employee will have no rights under this Agreement and all the Performance Share Units will be forfeited as of his or her Termination Date. For the avoidance of doubt, “Termination Date” for purposes of this award will be deemed to occur as of the date



Employee is no longer actively providing services as an employee, unless otherwise determined by the Company in its sole discretion, and Employee shall not be considered to be actively providing services during any notice period that may be specified under contract or applicable law with respect to such termination, including any “garden leave” or similar period, except as may otherwise be permitted in the Company’s sole discretion.

(b)Death or Disability. If Employee’s employment with the Company terminates due to death or disability (as determined by the Company) on or before the final day of the Performance Period, then the Company will cause a prorated number of Performance Share Units to be issued to Employee. The pro-rated amount will be equal to the product of (1) and (2) where (1) is the amount Employee would have received under this Agreement based on the actual results of the Performance Goals as determined by the Committee if Employee’s employment with the Company had not been terminated due to Employee’s death or disability and (2) is a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of days Employee was employed during the Performance Period as of the Termination Date and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Performance Period. On the date of settlement pursuant to Section 5, payment will be made to Employee, Employee’s legal representative, or the person to whom Employee’s rights pass to by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

(c)Retirement. In the event of Employee’s retirement (as determined by the Company), Employee will, for no consideration, forfeit all Performance Share Units unless, upon the recommendation of applicable management of the Company and/or business unit, the Committee or its delegate, as appropriate, may, in the Committee’s or such delegate’s sole discretion, approve a pro-rated amount of Performance Share Units. The pro-rated amount will be equal to the product of (1) and (2) where (1) is the amount Employee would have received under this Agreement based on the actual results of the Performance Goals as determined by the Committee if Employee had not retired and (2) is a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of days Employee was employed during the Performance Period as of the date of retirement and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Performance Period. Payment will be made to Employee on the date of settlement pursuant to Section 5.

(4)Settlement of Performance Share Units. Payment of any Final Award shall be made as soon as administratively practicable but in no event later than 75 days after the end of the Performance Period. Settlement of Final Awards are intended to be in the form of shares of Stock; provided however, that settlement may be made by a cash payment in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the shares of Stock that correspond to the Final Award to the extent that settlement in shares of Stock (i) is prohibited under local law, (ii) would require Employee, the Company or any Subsidiary or affiliated company to obtain the approval of any governmental or regulatory body in Employee’s country of employment (or residence, if different), (iii) would result in adverse tax consequences to Employee, the Company, or any Subsidiary or affiliated company, or (iv) is administratively burdensome. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, any Final Award shall be immediately forfeited if, at the time such payment would otherwise be made, Employee is in violation of Section 5 of this Agreement, or, where applicable, of any non-solicitation or non-competition covenant of any other written agreement between Employee and the Company or any Subsidiary or affiliated company, including, but not limited to, any employment agreement.

The Company may require Employee to sell such shares of Stock immediately or within a specified period following Employee’s termination of employment (in which case Employee hereby agrees that the Company shall have the authority to issue sale instructions in relation to such shares of Stock on Employee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization).

5.Non-Disclosure, Non-Solicit and Non-Compete Covenants. To further align Employee’s interests with the Company’s long-term business interests, including the preservation of the Company’s goodwill and the protection of the Confidential Business Information (as defined below) that Employee has obtained and will, necessarily continue to receive and rely on, Employee and the Company hereby agree to the following:

(a)Non-Disclosure of Confidential Business Information. Employee agrees that (a) the Company’s Confidential Business Information constitutes valuable, special, and unique assets





that the Company uses in its business to obtain a competitive advantage over its competitors; and (b) the protection of such Confidential Business Information against unauthorized disclosure and Employee’s use thereof is of critical importance to the Company in maintaining its competitive position. Employee also acknowledges and agrees that any unauthorized use or disclosure of such Confidential Business Information or other confidential information would cause irreparable harm to the Company. In consideration of the foregoing, Employee thereby agrees that Employee will not at any time during employment by the Company, and for so long thereafter as the pertinent information or documentation remains confidential, use (either for the benefit of Employee or the benefit of others), publish, disclose, claim ownership of, communicate, divulge or send to others, access, or take, any Confidential Business Information or any confidential information of the Company or its affiliates, including the vendors, consultants, joint ventures, or customers of the Company, except to the extent needed to carry out Employee’s obligations to the Company or as otherwise authorized in writing by the Company. Employee acknowledges and agrees that any unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Business Information or other confidential information would cause irreparable harm to the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement does not prevent Employee from: (i) making a good faith report of possible violations of applicable law to the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other governmental agency or entity; or (ii) making disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of applicable law or receiving any award for information provided under such whistleblower provisions.

(b)Non-Solicit and Non-Compete. During Employee’s employment with the Company and for one year immediately thereafter, Employee will not, other than on behalf of the Company, directly or indirectly, as a proprietor, partner, employee, agent or otherwise:

(1)Solicit, directly or indirectly, or cause or permit others to solicit, directly or indirectly, any person (i) formerly employed by the Company during the six (6) month period immediately preceding or following the termination of Employee’s employment (“Former Employee”) or (ii) employed by the Company (“Current Employee”). The term “solicit” includes, but is not limited to, the following (regardless of whether done directly or indirectly): (a) requesting that a Former or Current Employee change employment; (b) informing a Former or Current Employee that an opening exists elsewhere; (c) assisting a Former or Current Employee in finding employment elsewhere; (d) inquiring if a Former or Current Employee “knows of anyone who might be interested” in a position elsewhere; (e) inquiring if a Former or Current Employee might have an interest in employment elsewhere; (f) informing others of the name or status of, or other information about, a Former or Current Employee; or (g) any other similar conduct, the intended or actual effect of which is that a Former Employee affiliates with another employer or a Current Employee leaves the employment of the Company.

(2)Anywhere in the world, directly or indirectly, either (a) solicit, encourage, or induce to terminate or reduce its business with the Company, or (b) provide any products and/or services that compete directly with products and/or services provided, marketed, and/or under development by the Company at any time during the two (2) years preceding the termination of Employee’s employment, in both cases, to any person or entity who paid or engaged the Company for products and/or services, or who received the benefit of the Company’s products and/or services, or with whom Employee had any substantial dealings while Employee was employed by the Company, during the two (2) years preceding Employee’s termination of employment with the Company.

(3)Engage, directly or indirectly, either as a proprietor, stockholder, partner, director, officer, member, employee, consultant, or otherwise, in any existing or future business operating in North America or in any of the ten countries outside of North America that produced the highest revenues for the Company in the year preceding Employee’s termination of employment that offers, sells, or provides equipment, products or services that compete with the Company’s equipment, products or services (each, a “Competitive Business”). Nothing in this Section 5 shall prohibit Employee and Employee’s affiliates from owning, as passive investors, in the aggregate not more than five percent of equity securities of any Competitive Business.






(4) Act in any capacity for or with any Competitive Business, or for or with any of their agents, if in such capacity Employee would, because of the nature of his/her role with such Competitive Business and Employee’s knowledge of Confidential Business Information, inevitably use and/or disclose any Confidential Business Information in his/her work for, or on behalf of, the Competitive Business or its agent.

(5)Otherwise interfere with, disrupt or attempt to disrupt relations between the Company and any of its employees, contractors, vendors, third party business affiliates, or consultants.

Employee agrees that (a) the covenants contained in this Agreement are necessary for the protection of the Company’s business, goodwill, customer and employee relationships and Confidential Business Information, and (b) the compensation and other consideration received by Employee, including the Performance Share Units, are based on Employee’s agreement to such covenants. Employee represents and warrants that the time, scope of activity and geographic area restricted by this Agreement are reasonable, especially in the view of the worldwide scope of the business operations of the Company, Employee’s position and responsibilities with the Company, and the nature of the Confidential Business Information, that the enforcement of those restrictions contained in this Agreement would not be unduly burdensome to or impose any undue hardship on Employee, and that Employee will be able to earn a reasonable living while abiding by such covenants.


(c)State Specific Limitations. Employee and the Company hereby further agree that, in spite of anything in the Agreement to the contrary, if and to the extent Employee works for the Company, not including temporary assignments or business travel, in the states mentioned below, the restrictions in Paragraph 5(b) will be revised as set forth below. During any portion of Employee’s employment with the Company when Employee is not assigned to one of the states listed below, this Agreement shall be enforceable in its entirety:

(a)California: The only provisions of Paragraph 5(b) that will apply during Employee’s ongoing (not temporary or business travel) assignment in California shall be Subparagraph (i) and, to the extent necessary to protect the Company’s trade secrets, Subparagraphs (iv) and (v).

(b)Colorado: Colorado: If Employee has an ongoing (not temporary or business travel) assignment in Colorado, the provisions of Paragraph 5(b)(i), (ii), (iv) and (v) shall only apply to Employee if Employee’s annualized cash compensation meets or exceeds the threshold amount for highly compensated workers within the meaning of C.R.S. § 8-2-113(2) and the provisions of Paragraph 5(b)(iii) shall only apply to Employee if Employee’s annualized cash compensation is at least 60% of the then-applicable highly-compensated threshold under Colorado law. Additionally, Employee acknowledges that the Company has provided Employee with a separate notice advising Employee of the restrictive covenants in Paragraph 5 in accordance with CRS § 8-2-113 and that the Company gave Employee at least fourteen (14) days to review the notice and the Agreement.

(c)Louisiana: The provisions of Paragraph 5(b) will apply during Employee’s ongoing (not temporary or business travel) assignment in Louisiana in the following Louisiana parishes and municipalities: Acadia, Bienville, Bossier, Caddo, Calcasieu, Cameron, Iberia, Lafayette, Lafourche, Orleans, Plaquemines, Rapides, St. Mary, St. Martin, Terrebonne, and Vermilion.

(d)North Dakota: All provisions of Paragraph 5(b) will apply during Employee’s ongoing (not temporary or business travel) assignment in North Dakota. For the one-year





period immediately following the end of said Employee’s employment, the only provisions of Paragraph 5(b) that will apply shall be Subparagraph (i) and, to the extent necessary to protect Company’s trade secrets and/or Confidential Business Information, Subparagraphs (iv) and (v).

(e)Oklahoma: The only provisions of Paragraph 5(b) that will apply during Employee’s ongoing (not temporary or business travel) assignment in Oklahoma shall be Subparagraph (i), and to the extent necessary to prevent the direct solicitation of the sale of goods and/or services from the customers of the Company, Subparagraph (ii), and to the extent necessary to protect the Company’s trade secrets, Subparagraphs (iv) and (v).


(d)Confidential Business Information. As used in this Agreement, the term “Confidential Business Information” means any and all of the Company’s trade secrets, confidential and/or proprietary information, and all other information and data that is not generally known to third persons who could derive economic value from its use or disclosure, including, but not limited to, the Company’s strategies, methods, products, software, designs, drawings, books, records, data, and technical information concerning its products, equipment, services and processes, procurement procedures and pricing techniques; the methods though which the Company identifies, hires, trains and compensates its employees; details regarding the Company’s employees, including their compensation, contact information, and their performance and conduct; methods to locate and qualify contractors, vendors and third party affiliates; the identity of and other information (such as credit and financial data) concerning the Company’s contractors, vendors and third party affiliates; the individuals, and their contact Information, at contractors, vendors and third party affiliates with whom the Company has dealt; the amounts and types of goods and/or services purchased in the past from contractors, vendors and third party affiliates; the amounts paid for such past purchases; the identity of the Company’s customers; the individuals, and their contact information, at customers with whom Employee has dealt; the amounts and types of products and services purchased in the past by such customers; the amount paid for such past purchases, the timing of such past purchases, and the method of payment for such past purchases; the Company’s plans for future products and services; the details of any ongoing or planned negotiations for future products and services; and the Company’s plans for the future, including without limitation plans for its products and services, for geographic and customer markets, and for marketing, promoting, selling, distributing and providing its products and services.

6.Shareholder Rights and Dividends. Employee shall have no rights to dividends, dividend equivalents or any other rights of a shareholder with respect to the Performance Share Units unless and until such time as the award has been settled by the transfer of shares of Stock to Employee. Upon settlement of the Final Award, any dividends Employee would have earned had he or she held the amount of Stock equal to the Final Award amount for the duration of the Performance Period will be paid in cash to Employee.

7.No Fractional Shares. All provisions of this agreement concern whole shares of Stock. If the application of any provision of this agreement would yield a fractional share of Stock, such fractional shares will be rounded down to the next whole share of Stock.

8.Non-Transferability. The Performance Share Units may not be sold, assigned, pledged, exchanged, hypothecated, encumbered, disposed of, or otherwise transferred, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a “qualified domestic relations order” as defined by the Code or Title I of the U.S. Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or similar order. Upon any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of the Performance Share Units or of such rights contrary to the provisions hereof or in the PUP or the Plan, the Performance Share Units and such rights shall immediately become null and void.

9.Withholding of Tax. Employee acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company or, if different, the Subsidiary or affiliated company that employs Employee (the “Employer”), the





ultimate liability for all income tax, social contributions, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account, hypothetical tax or other tax-related items related to Employee’s participation in the PUP and legally applicable to Employee or deemed by the Company or the Employer in their discretion to be an appropriate charge to Employee even if legally applicable to the Company or the Employer (“Tax-Related Items”), is and remains Employee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer, if any. Employee further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Performance Share Units, including, but not limited to, the grant, the subsequent sale of shares of Stock acquired, and the receipt of any dividends; and (b) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Performance Share Units to reduce or eliminate Employee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if Employee is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction between the Grant Date and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Employee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

Prior to the relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Employee agrees to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, Employee authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following: (i) withholding from Employee’s wages or other cash compensation payable to Employee by the Company and/or the Employer; (ii) withholding from the shares of Stock to be delivered upon settlement of the Performance Share Units or other awards granted to Employee having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld; (iii) withholding from the proceeds of the sale of shares of Stock acquired upon settlement of the Performance Share Units, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on Employee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization without further consent); or (iv) permitting Employee to tender to the Company cash (including check, bank draft or money order delivered to the Company’s Stock Plan Administrator) or, if allowed by the Committee, shares of Stock previously acquired by Employee having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Employee is subject to Section 16 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, pursuant to Rule 16a-2 promulgated thereunder, any tax withholding obligations shall be satisfied by having the Company withhold a number of shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld from the shares of Stock to be delivered upon settlement of the Performance Share Units.
Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable statutory withholding rates (as determined by the Company in good faith and in its sole discretion) or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates. In the event of over-withholding, Employee may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash (with no entitlement to the equivalent in shares of Stock), or if not refunded, Employee may seek a refund from the local tax authorities. In the event of under-withholding, Employee may be required to pay any additional Tax-Related Items directly to the applicable tax authority or to the Company and/or the Employer. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding from the shares of Stock to be delivered upon settlement of the Performance Share Units, for tax purposes, Employee is deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Stock subject to the Performance Share Units, notwithstanding that a number of shares of Stock are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items. Employee will have no further rights with respect to any shares of Stock that are retained by the Company pursuant to this provision.
Employee agrees to pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of Employee’s participation in the PUP that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver shares of Stock or proceeds from the sale of shares of Stock until arrangements satisfactory to the Company have been made in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

10.Status of Shares of Stock. The Company shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Stock pursuant to any Performance Share Units at any time, when the offering of the shares of Stock covered by such Performance Share Unit has not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended





(the “Act”) or such other country, U.S. federal or state laws, rules or regulations as the Company deems applicable and, in the opinion of legal counsel for the Company, there is no exemption from the registration. The Company intends to use reasonable efforts to ensure that no such delay will occur. In the event exemption from registration under the Act is available upon settlement of the Performance Share Units, Employee, if requested by the Company to do so, will execute and deliver to the Company in writing an agreement containing such provisions as the Company may require to assure compliance with applicable securities laws.

Employee agrees that the shares of Stock which Employee may acquire upon settlement of the Performance Share Units will not be sold or otherwise disposed of in any manner which would constitute a violation of any applicable U.S. federal, state or non-U.S. securities laws. Employee also agrees (i) that the Company may refuse to register the transfer of the shares of Stock acquired under the Performance Share Units on the stock transfer records of the Company if such proposed transfer would in the opinion of counsel to the Company constitute a violation of any applicable securities law, and (ii) that the Company may give related instructions to its transfer agent, if any, to stop registration of the transfer of the shares of Stock acquired under the PUP.

11.Nature of Grant. In accepting the Performance Share Units, Employee acknowledges and agrees that:

(1)the PUP is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company, in its sole discretion, at any time (subject to any limitations set forth in the PUP);
(2)the grant of the Performance Share Units is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of performance share units, or benefits in lieu of performance share units, even if performance share units or other awards have been granted in the past;
(3)all decisions with respect to future awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;
(4)Employee’s participation in the PUP is voluntary;
(5)the Performance Share Units and Employee’s participation in the PUP shall not create a right to employment or be interpreted as forming an employment contract with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies and shall not interfere with the ability of the Company or the Employer, as applicable, to terminate Employee’s employment relationship (as otherwise may be permitted under local law);
(6)unless otherwise agreed with the Company, the Performance Share Units and any shares of Stock acquired upon settlement of the Performance Share Units, and the income from and value of the same, are not granted as consideration for, or in connection with, any service Employee may provide as a director of any Subsidiary or affiliate of the Company;
(7)the Performance Share Units and any shares of Stock acquired under the PUP and the income and value of the same are not part of normal or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end-of-service payments, holiday pay, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company, the Employer or any Subsidiary or affiliate of the Company;
(8)the final number of Performance Share Units earned under this Agreement is unknown, and the number may be zero if the Committee determines that the level of achievement of the Performance Goals does not meet the minimum threshold requirement specified for the 2024 Cycle, in which case all of the Performance Share Units will be forfeited for no consideration;
(9)the future value of the shares of Stock underlying the Performance Share Units is unknown, indeterminable, and cannot be predicted with certainty;





(10)upon settlement of the Performance Share Units, the value of such shares of Stock may increase or decrease in value;
(11)no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the Performance Share Units resulting from termination of Employee’s employment (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws or later found invalid) and, in consideration of the Performance Share Units, Employee agrees not to institute any claim against the Company or the Employer;
(12)the Performance Share Units and the benefits evidenced by this Agreement do not create any entitlement not otherwise specifically provided for in the PUP or provided by the Company in its discretion, to have the Performance Share Units or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company, nor to be exchanged, cashed out or substituted for, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the shares of Stock; and
(13)neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between Employee’s local currency and the U.S. dollar that may affect the value of the Performance Share Units or any amounts due to Employee pursuant to the settlement of the Performance Share Units or the subsequent sale of any shares of Stock acquired upon settlement of the Performance Share Units.
12.Data Privacy. Employee understands that the Company, its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies and/or the Employer may hold certain personal information about Employee, specifically: Employee’s name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social security or insurance number, passport number or other identification number, salary, nationality, and any shares of Stock or directorships held in the Company, and details of the Performance Share Units or any other entitlement to shares of Stock, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Employee’s favor (“Data”), for the purpose of implementing, administering and managing the PUP. More information about how the Company collects, processes, protects, and transfers Data, as well as the rights of Employees in relation to their Data, is found in the Employee Privacy Notice available on HalWorld.

Employee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of Employee’s Data as described in this Agreement and any other grant materials by and among, as necessary and applicable, the Company and any of its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies, for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing Employee’s participation in the PUP.

Employee understands that Data will be transferred to the stock brokerage or other financial or administrative services firm designated by the Company (the “Stock Plan Administrator”) which is assisting the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the PUP. Employee authorizes the Company, the Company’s Stock Plan Administrator and any other possible recipients that may assist the Company (presently or in the future) with implementing, administering and managing the PUP to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer Data, in electronic or other form, for the sole purpose of implementing, administering and managing Employee’s participation in the PUP. Further, Employee understands that Employee is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If Employee does not consent, or if Employee later seeks to revoke his or her consent, Employee’s service status and career will not be affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing Employee’s consent is that the Company would not be able to grant Employee the Performance Share Units or other equity awards or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, Employee understands that refusing or withdrawing his or her consent may affect Employee’s ability to participate in the PUP.
13.Insider Trading; Market Abuse Laws. By participating in the PUP, Employee agrees to comply with the Company’s policy on insider trading. Employee further acknowledges that, depending on Employee’s or his or her broker’s country of residence or where the shares of Stock are listed, Employee may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws that may affect Employee’s ability to accept, acquire, sell or otherwise dispose of shares of Stock, rights to shares of Stock (e.g., restricted stock units) or rights linked to the value of shares of Stock, during such times Employee is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company as defined by the laws or regulations in Employee’s country. Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or





amendment of orders Employee places before he or she possessed inside information. Furthermore, Employee could be prohibited from (i) disclosing the inside information to any third party (other than on a “need to know” basis) and (ii) ”tipping” third parties or causing them otherwise to buy or sell securities. Employee understands that third parties include fellow employees. Any restriction under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company insider trading policy. Employee acknowledges that it is Employee’s responsibility to comply with any applicable restrictions, and that Employee should therefore consult Employee’s personal advisor on this matter.

14.Electronic Delivery and Participation. Employee agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, in lieu of receiving documents in paper format, to accept electronic delivery of any documents that the Company and its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies may deliver in connection with this grant and any other grants offered by the Company, including prospectuses, grant notifications, account statements, annual or quarterly reports, and other communications. Electronic delivery of a document may be made via the Company’s email system or by reference to a location on the Company’s intranet or website or a website of the Company’s agent administering the PUP. By accepting this grant, whether electronically or otherwise, Employee also hereby consents to participate in the PUP through such system, intranet, or website, including but not limited to the use of electronic signatures or click-through electronic acceptance of terms and conditions.

15.English Language. Employee acknowledges and agrees that it is Employee’s express intent that this Agreement and the PUP and all other documents, notices and legal proceedings entered into, given or instituted pursuant to the Performance Share Units be drawn up in English. Employee acknowledges that Employee is sufficiently proficient in English, or has consulted with an advisor who is sufficiently proficient in English, so as to allow Employee to understand the terms and conditions of this Agreement. To the extent Employee has been provided with a copy of this Agreement, the PUP, or any other documents relating to this Award in a language other than English, the English language documents will prevail in case of any ambiguities or divergences as a result of translation.

16.Not a Public Offering. The award of the Performance Share Units is not intended to be a public offering of securities in Employee’s country of employment (or country of residence, if different). The Company has not submitted any registration statement, prospectus or other filings with the local securities authorities (unless otherwise required under local law), and the award of the Performance Share Units is not subject to the supervision of the local securities authorities. No employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies is permitted to advise Employee on whether he/she should participate in the PUP. Acquiring shares of Stock involves a degree of risk. Before deciding to participate in the PUP, Employee should carefully consider all risk factors relevant to the acquisition of shares of Stock under the PUP and carefully review all of the materials related to the Performance Share Units and the PUP. In addition, Employee should consult with his/her personal advisor for professional investment advice.

17.Repatriation; Compliance with Law. Employee agrees to repatriate all payments attributable to the shares of Stock and/or cash acquired under the PUP in accordance with applicable foreign exchange rules and regulations in Employee’s country of employment (and country of residence, if different). In addition, Employee agrees to take any and all actions, and consent to any and all actions taken by the Company and any of its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies, as may be required to allow the Company and any of its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies to comply with local laws, rules and/or regulations in Employee’s country of employment (and country of residence, if different). Finally, Employee agrees to take any and all actions as may be required to comply with Employee’s personal obligations under local laws, rules and/or regulations in Employee’s country of employment and country of residence, if different).

18.Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on Employee’s participation in the PUP, on the Performance Share Units, and on any shares of Stock acquired under the PUP, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require Employee to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.

19.Committee’s Powers. No provision contained in this Agreement shall in any way terminate, modify or alter, or be construed or interpreted as terminating, modifying or altering any of the powers, rights or authority vested in the Committee or, to the extent delegated, in its delegate, pursuant to the terms





of the PUP or resolutions adopted in furtherance of the PUP, including, without limitation, the right to make certain determinations and elections with respect to the Performance Share Units.

20.Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors to the Company and all persons lawfully claiming under Employee.

21.Governing Law and Forum.

(a)Except as set forth in Paragraph 21(c), this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Texas without regard to principles of conflict of laws, except to the extent that it implicates matters which are the subject of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, which matters shall be governed by the latter law.

(b)For purposes of resolving any dispute that may arise directly or indirectly from this Agreement, the parties hereby agree that any such dispute that cannot be resolved by the parties shall be submitted for resolution through the Halliburton Dispute Resolution Program, pursuant to which the last step is final and binding arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that in addition to any other rights or remedies they may have, that either party shall be entitled, if it so elects, to institute a proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction to obtain a preliminary injunction (with each waiving the other’s obligation, if any, to post bond) in order to prevent activities in violation of the Agreement and to maintain the status quo pending resolution of the parties’ dispute in accordance with the Halliburton Dispute Resolution Program.

(c)If Employee’s ongoing (not temporary or business travel) assignment is in California, Colorado, Louisiana or North Dakota, then Paragraph 5 shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of California, Colorado, Louisiana or North Dakota, respectively.

22.U.S. Federal Defend Trade Secrets Act Notice. Employee is hereby notified in accordance with the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016 that Employee will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any U.S. federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in confidence to a U.S. federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or is made in a complaint or other document that is filed under seal in a lawsuit or other proceeding. If Employee files a lawsuit for retaliation against the Company for reporting a suspected violation of law, Employee may disclose the Company’s trade secrets to Employee’s attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding if Employee files any document containing the trade secret under seal, and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.

23.Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are severable and if any one or more of the provisions are determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, the Agreement shall be reformed and construed so that it would be enforceable to the maximum extent legally possible, and if it cannot be so reformed and construed, as if such unenforceable provision, or part thereof, had never been contained herein. The covenant in Paragraph 5 of this Agreement shall be separate, independent and concurrently enforceable with other employee agreements that have been signed by Employee. In the event such provisions of an agreement is determined by an adjudicator as not to be enforceable, any other concurrently enforceable provisions may still be enforced.

24.Waiver. The waiver by the Company with respect to Employee’s (or any other participant’s) compliance with any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by such party of a provision of this Agreement.





IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Agreement to be duly executed by an officer thereunto duly authorized as of the date first above written.

Exhibit 95
Mine Safety Disclosures
Under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, each operator of a mine is required to include certain mine safety results in its periodic reports filed with the SEC. The operation of our mines is subject to regulation by the federal Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 (Mine Act). Below, we present the following items regarding certain mining safety and health matters for the year ended December 31, 2023:
total number of violations of mandatory health or safety standards that could significantly and substantially contribute to the cause and effect of a mine safety or health hazard under section 104 of the Mine Act for which we have received a citation from MSHA;
total number of orders issued under section 104(b) of the Mine Act, which covers violations that had previously been cited under section 104(a) that, upon follow-up inspection by MSHA, are found not to have been totally abated within the prescribed time period, which results in the issuance of an order requiring the mine operator to immediately withdraw all persons (except certain authorized persons) from the mine;
total number of citations and orders for unwarrantable failure of the mine operator to comply with mandatory health or safety standards under Section 104(d) of the Mine Act;
total number of flagrant violations (i.e., reckless or repeated failure to make reasonable efforts to eliminate a known violation of a mandatory health or safety standard that substantially and proximately caused, or reasonably could have been expected to cause, death or serious bodily injury) under section 110(b)(2) of the Mine Act;
total number of imminent danger orders (i.e., the existence of any condition or practice in a mine which could reasonably be expected to cause death or serious physical harm before such condition or practice can be abated) issued under section 107(a) of the Mine Act;
total dollar value of proposed assessments from MSHA under the Mine Act;
total number of mining-related fatalities; and
total number of pending legal actions before the Federal Mine Safety and Health Review Commission involving such mine.

Unless otherwise indicated, any of these other items associated with a single mine have been aggregated in the totals for that mine.
(2)
Amounts included are the total dollar value of proposed or outstanding assessments received from MSHA on or before January 5, 2024 regardless of whether the assessment has been challenged or appealed, for citations and orders occurring during the year ended December 31, 2023.

In addition, as required by the reporting requirements regarding mine safety included in §1503(a)(2) of the Dodd-Frank Act, the following is a list for the year ended December 31, 2023, of each mine of which we or a subsidiary of ours is an operator, that has received written notice from MSHA of:

(a) a pattern of violations of mandatory health or safety standards that are of such nature as could have significantly and substantially contributed to the cause and effect of mine health or safety hazards under
§104(e) of the Mine Act:
None; or
(b) the potential to have such a pattern:
None.

Citations and orders can be contested and appealed, and as part of that process, are sometimes reduced in severity and amount, and are sometimes dismissed. The number of citations, orders and proposed assessments vary by inspector and also vary depending on the size and type of the operation.

Company Policy

Recoupment of Incentive Compensation Following a Restatement

Date Approved: September 12, 2023Reference No.: 3-90070










PURPOSE

The purpose of this policy is to describe circumstances in which the Company will recover Recoverable Compensation and the process for that recovery. This policy is intended to comply with (1) Section 954 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, as codified in Section 10D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and implemented by Rule 10D-1 thereunder adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and (2) Section 303A.14 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual.

This policy shall be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (Compensation Committee). Any determinations made by the Compensation Committee shall be final and binding on all affected individuals.

SCOPE

This policy applies to Company operations worldwide.

POLICY

Recovery of Recoverable Compensation

The Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of the Company shall promptly report to the Board any instance in which the Company is required to prepare a Restatement.

Upon learning of a required Restatement, the Board shall determine the Restatement Date.

The CFO (or other appropriate officer or third party designated by the Compensation Committee) shall promptly (but in any event within 90 days following the Restatement) calculate the Recoverable Compensation for each affected individual, which calculation shall be subject to approval by the Compensation Committee.

For purposes of calculating Recoverable Compensation:

1.Incentive-based Compensation shall be deemed received in the Company’s fiscal period during which the Financial Reporting Measure specified in the Incentive-based Compensation award is attained, even if the payment or grant of the Incentive-based Compensation occurs after the end of that period (but shall not include grants or payments made prior to the Effective Date).

2.For Incentive-based Compensation based on (or derived from) stock price or total shareholder return, where the amount of Recoverable Compensation is not subject to mathematical recalculation directly from the information in a Restatement, it shall be based on a reasonable estimate of the effect of the Restatement on the stock price or total shareholder return upon which the Incentive-based Compensation was received. The Company shall maintain documentation of the determination of that reasonable estimate and provide such documentation to the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).

Promptly following the Compensation Committee’s approval of the Recoverable Compensation, the Compensation Committee shall notify in writing each individual who received Recoverable Compensation and shall cause the Company to demand payment or return, as applicable, of such Recoverable Compensation.

The Company shall demand recovery and recover Recoverable Compensation in compliance with this policy except to the extent that the Compensation Committee determines that recovery would be impracticable, and one of the following conditions applies:


1.the direct expense paid to a third party to assist in enforcing this policy would exceed the amount to be recovered; provided, however, that before concluding that it would be impracticable to recover any amount of Recoverable Compensation based on expense of enforcement, the Company must make a reasonable attempt to recover such Recoverable Compensation, document such reasonable attempt(s) to recover, and provide that documentation to the NYSE;

2.recovery would violate home country law where that law was adopted prior to November 28, 2022; provided, however, that before concluding that it would be impracticable to recover any amount of Recoverable Compensation based on violation of home country law, the Company
Page 1 of 4


must obtain an opinion of home country counsel, acceptable to the NYSE, that recovery would result in such a violation, and must provide such opinion to the NYSE; or

3.recovery would likely cause an otherwise tax-qualified retirement plan, under which benefits are broadly available to employees of the Company, to fail to meet the requirements of Sections 401(a)(13) or 411(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and regulations thereunder.

Except as provided above, in no event may the Company accept final repayment from the affected individual of less than the full amount of the Recoverable Compensation received by such individual.

The Compensation Committee shall determine, in its sole discretion, the method of recovering any Recoverable Compensation pursuant to this policy, taking into account all facts and circumstances (including the time value of money and the cost to shareholders of delayed recovery), so long as such method complies with the terms of Section 303A.14 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. If the Compensation Committee determines that an appropriate method of recovery is one other than the prompt repayment by the affected individual in cash or property, the Company may offer to enter into a repayment agreement with the affected individual (in a form and with terms reasonably acceptable to the Compensation Committee). The Company may offset, or cause to be offset, any amounts that the affected individual is required to repay to the Company pursuant to this policy against any amounts otherwise owed by the Company or any of its subsidiaries to the affected individual.

If the affected individual fails to repay to the Company when due the full amount of the Recoverable Compensation received by such affected individual, the Company shall take all actions reasonable and appropriate to recover the full amount of the Recoverable Compensation from the affected individual.

Disclosure

The Company shall file all disclosures with respect to this policy in accordance with the requirements of the securities laws, including the disclosure required by the applicable SEC filings.

Indemnification

The Company shall not indemnify any current or former Executive Officer against the loss of Recoverable Compensation and shall not pay or reimburse any current or former Executive Officers for premiums for any insurance policy to fund such Executive Officer’s potential recovery obligations.

Other Recoupment Rights

The Board intends that this policy will be applied to the fullest extent of the law. Any employment agreement, equity award agreement, or similar agreement entered into on or after the Effective Date may, as a condition to the grant of any benefit thereunder, require the party thereto to agree to abide by the terms of this policy or implement arrangements designed to facilitate the administration hereof.
Although not a prerequisite to enforcement of this policy, each Executive Officer shall be required to sign and return to the Company the Acknowledgment Form attached below as Exhibit A pursuant to which such Executive Officer will agree to be bound by the terms and comply with this policy. Any right of recovery under this policy is in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other remedies or rights of recovery that may be available to the Company pursuant to the terms of any employment agreement, equity award agreement, or similar agreement and any other legal remedies available to the Company.

Amendment and Interpretation

The Board may amend this policy from time to time in its discretion and shall amend this policy as it deems necessary or advisable to reflect the regulations adopted by the SEC and to comply with any rules or standards adopted by the NYSE. The Board may at any time in its sole discretion supplement, amend, or terminate any provision of this policy in any respect as the Board determines to be necessary or appropriate. The Compensation Committee shall interpret and construe this policy and make all determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of this policy. It is intended that this policy be interpreted in a manner that is consistent with the requirements of Section 10D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 10D-1 thereunder and Section 303A.14 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual and any other applicable rules adopted by the SEC.

Successors
