 WHEREAS, in order to make certain awards to key employees of Sunoco and its Affiliates, Sunoco maintains the Sunoco, Inc. Long-Term Performance

 WHEREAS, the Plan is
administered by a Committee (the “Committee”) appointed by the Sunoco’s Board of Directors and consisting of at least two (2) members of such Board, each of whom meets the applicable requirements of Section 16 of the

	 	(b)	Notwithstanding the foregoing, and at the discretion of the Committee, any Participant subject to the minimum stock ownership guidelines (established from time to time by the
Committee or Sunoco), but failing to meet the ownership requirement applicable to the Participant within the prescribed period may receive a number of shares of Common Stock upon payment of the Common Stock Units, subject to the following
restrictions which will remain in place until compliance with such ownership guidelines is attained: 

  

	 	(1)	The number of shares subject to the restrictions will be equal to the total number of Common Stock Units being paid out, minus the number of shares of Common Stock used to pay
applicable federal, state and local withholding tax on the total payment of such Common Stock Units.

stock dividend or any other change in the corporate or capital structure of Sunoco. 

  

	 	(c)	Until the restrictions described in Section 1.5(b) above lapse, the shares will be held in “book-entry form” and appropriate notation of these restrictions will be
maintained in the records of Sunoco’s transfer agent and registrar. Any share certificate representing such shares will bear a conspicuous legend evidencing these restrictions, and Sunoco may require the Participant to deposit the share

	1.5	Change in Control. 

  

	 	(a)	Form of Payment of CSUs. In the event of a Change in Control of Sunoco, all the Participant’s CSUs outstanding as of the Change in Control shall be payable to the
Participant in cash or stock, as determined by the Committee prior to the Change in Control, as follows: 

  

	 	(1)	if the Participant is to receive stock, the Participant will receive shares of Common Stock equal in number to the total number of CSUs granted to the Participant; or


  

	 	(2)	if the Participant is to receive cash, the Participant will be paid an amount in cash equal to the number of CSUs outstanding multiplied by the greater of: 


 

	 	 (i)
	 the highest price per share of Common Stock paid in connection with any Change in Control during the period starting on
the sixtieth (60th) calendar day immediately prior to the Change in Control and ending on the earlier of (a) the ninetieth
(90th) calendar day following the Change in Control or (b) the last day of the two and one-half (2-1/2) months following the end of the calendar year in which the date of the such Change in Control occurs; and 



 

	 	(ii)	the highest trading price per share of Common Stock reflected in the consolidated trading tables of The Wall Street Journal (presently the New York Stock Exchange Composite
Transactions quotations) during the 60-day period immediately prior to the Change in Control. 

  

 3 








 Such amount will be reduced by the applicable federal, state and local withholding taxes due, as provided
in Section 2.6 hereof. 
  

	 	(b)	Timing of Payment.  

  

	 	(1)	CSUs: 

 The cash or stock, as the case may be, shall be
paid out to the Participant no later than the earlier of (i) ninety (90) days following the date of occurrence of such Change in Control or (ii) two and one-half (2-1/2) months following the end of the calendar year in which the date
of such Change in Control occurs (the “CSU Payout Date”), regardless of whether the applicable Vesting Period has expired. 
  

	 	(2)	DIVIDEND EQUIVALENTS: 

 On or before the CSU Payout Date,
the Participant will be paid an amount in cash equal to the value of the Dividend Equivalent amounts, if any, credited to the Participant immediately preceding the Change in Control. 
  

	 	(c)	Eligibility for Payout. Payout of CSUs and the related earned Dividend Equivalents shall be made to each Participant: 

  

	 	(1)	who is employed by Sunoco or one of its Affiliates on the CSU Payout Date; or 

  

	 	(2)	whose employment relationship with Sunoco or one of its Affiliates is terminated: 

  

	 	(i)	as a result of any Qualifying Termination prior to the CSU Payout Date; or 

  

	 	(ii)	as a result of either of the following, prior to the CSU Payout Date: 

  

	 	(A)	death; or 

  

	 	(B)	permanent disability or retirement (as each is determined by the Committee). 

  

	1.6	Termination of Employment. 

  

	 	(a)	Death or Disability. The Committee has determined that no portion of the Participant’s CSUs and related Dividend Equivalents shall be forfeited as a result of the
occurrence, prior to the end of the Vesting Period, of either of the following: 

  

	 	(1)	the death of the Participant; or 

  

	 	(2)	the termination of the Participant’s employment with Sunoco or one of its Affiliates by reason permanent disability (as each is determined by the Committee).


 Instead, the Participant’s CSUs and related Dividend Equivalents shall remain and be paid out as though the Participant
had continued in the employment of Sunoco or one of its Affiliates through the end of the applicable Vesting Period, and shall be paid on the first day of the second month following the date on which the employment relationship between Participant
and the Company is terminated as provided above in this Section 1.6(a). 
  

 4 









	 	(b)	Other Termination of Employment. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 1.5 and 1.6(a) above, or as determined by the Committee, upon termination of the

together with the related Dividend Equivalents, and the Participant shall not be entitled to receive any Common Stock or any payment of any Dividend Equivalents. 

 ARTICLE II 
 GENERAL PROVISIONS 
  

	2.1	Non-Assignability. The CSUs and the related earned Dividend Equivalents covered by this Agreement shall not be assignable or transferable by the Participant, except by will
or the laws of descent and distribution, unless otherwise provided by the Committee. During the life of the Participant, the CSUs and the related Dividend Equivalents covered by this Agreement shall be payable only to the Participant or the guardian
or legal representative of such Participant, unless the Committee provides otherwise. 

  

	2.2	Heirs and Successors. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of, Sunoco and its successors and assigns, and upon any person acquiring, whether by
merger, consolidation, purchase of assets or otherwise, all or substantially all of Sunoco’s assets and business. In the event of the Participant’s death prior to payment of the CSUs and/or the related Dividend Equivalents, payment may be
made to the estate of the Participant to the extent such payment is otherwise permitted by this Agreement. Subject to the terms of the Plan, any benefits distributable to the Participant under this Agreement that are not paid at the time of the
Participant’s death shall be paid at the time and in the form determined in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan, to the legal representative or representatives of the estate of the Participant.


  

	2.3	No Right of Continued Employment; Effect of Disaffiliation. The receipt of this award does not give the Participant, and nothing in the Plan or in this Agreement shall confer
upon the Participant, any right to continue in the employment of Sunoco or any of its Affiliates, or to continue to be nominated or serve on the Board of Directors. Nothing in the Plan or in this Agreement shall affect any right which Sunoco or any
of its Affiliates may have to terminate the employment of the Participant. The payment of earned CSUs, and the related Dividend Equivalents, under this Agreement shall not give Sunoco or any of its Affiliates any right to the continued services of
the Participant for any period. Upon the sale or other disposition of an Affiliate by Sunoco, with the Participant remaining employed by such former Affiliate, the Participant shall be deemed, for all purposes under the Plan, to have terminated the
Participant’s employment relationship with Sunoco and its remaining Affiliates. 

  

	2.4	Rights as a Shareholder. Neither the Participant nor any other person shall be entitled to the privileges of stock ownership, or otherwise have any rights as a shareholder,
by reason of the award of CSUs covered by this Agreement or any shares issuable in respect of such CSUs, unless and until such shares have been validly issued to such Participant or such other person as fully paid shares. 


 

 5 









	2.5	Registration of Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the CSUs shall not be or become payable in whole or in part unless a registration statement
with respect to the shares of Common Stock subject thereto has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and has become effective. 

  

	2.6	Tax Withholding. All distributions under this Agreement are subject to withholding of all applicable taxes. 

  

	 	(a)	Payment in Cash. Cash payments in respect of any earned CSUs, and/or the related Dividend Equivalents, shall be made net of any applicable federal, state, or local
withholding taxes. 

  

	 	(b)	Payment in Stock. Immediately prior to the payment of any shares of Common Stock to Participant in respect of earned CSUs, the Participant shall remit an amount
sufficient to satisfy any Federal, state and/or local withholding tax due on the receipt of such Common Stock. At the election of the Participant, and subject to such rules as may be established by the Committee, such withholding obligations may be
satisfied through the surrender of shares of Common Stock (otherwise payable to Participant in respect of such earned CSUs) having a value, as of the date of such earned CSUs first became payable, sufficient to satisfy the applicable tax obligation.


  

	2.7	Adjustments. 

  

	 	(a)	In the event of a stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, share combination, or recapitalization or similar event affecting the capital structure of the Company (each a
“Share Change”), the Committee or Board of Directors shall make an equitable and proportionate anti-dilution adjustment to offset any resultant change in the per-share price of the Company’s Common Stock, and preserve the intrinsic
value of Stock Options, Common Stock Units and other awards theretofore granted under the Plan. Such mandatory adjustment may include a change in one or more of the following: (1) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock reserved for
issuance and delivery under the Plan; (2) the number of shares of Common Stock or other securities subject to outstanding awards under the Plan; (3) the exercise price of outstanding Options; and (4) other similar matters.


  

	 	(b)	 In the event of a merger, amalgamation, consolidation, acquisition of property or shares, separation, spinoff, other distribution of stock or property (including
any extraordinary cash or stock dividend), reorganization, stock rights offering, liquidation, Disaffiliation, or similar event affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (each, a “Corporate Transaction”), the Committee or the Board
of Directors may in its discretion make such substitutions or adjustments as it deems appropriate and equitable to (1) the aggregate number and kind of shares of Common Stock or other securities reserved for issuance and delivery under the
Plan, (2) the number and kind of shares of Common Stock or other securities subject to outstanding awards under the Plan; and (3) the exercise price of outstanding Options, (4) the cancellation of outstanding awards granted under the
Plan in exchange for payments of cash, property or a combination thereof having an aggregate value equal to the value of such awards, as determined by the Committee or the Board of Directors in its sole discretion (it being understood that in the
case of a Corporate Transaction with respect to which holders of Common Stock receive consideration other than publicly traded equity securities of the ultimate surviving entity, any such determination by the Committee or the Board of Directors that
the value of an Option shall for this purpose be deemed to equal the excess, if any, of the value of the consideration being paid for each share of Common Stock pursuant to such Corporate Transaction over the exercise price of such Option shall
conclusively be deemed valid); (5) the substitution of other property (including, without limitation, cash or other securities of the Company and securities of entities 



  

 6 









	 	 
other than the Company) for the shares of Common Stock subject to outstanding awards under the Plan; and (6) in connection with any Disaffiliation,
arranging for the assumption of awards granted under the Plan, or replacement of awards granted under the Plan with new awards based on other property or other securities (including, without limitation, other securities of the Company and securities
of entities other than the Company), by the affected Subsidiary, Affiliate, or division or by the entity that controls such Subsidiary, Affiliate, or division following such Disaffiliation (as well as any corresponding adjustments to awards under
the Plan that remain based upon Company securities. 


  

	2.8	Leaves of Absence. The Committee shall make such rules, regulations and determinations as it deems appropriate under the Plan in respect of any leave of absence taken by the
Participant. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Committee shall be entitled to determine: 

  

	 	(a)	whether or not any such leave of absence shall constitute a termination of employment within the meaning of the Plan; and 

  

	 	(b)	the impact, if any, of any such leave of absence on any prior awards made to the Participant under the Plan. 

  

	2.9	Administration. Pursuant to the Plan, the Committee is vested with conclusive authority to interpret and construe the Plan, to adopt rules and regulations for carrying out

in the Committee, and the Committee shall have all powers with respect to this Agreement as it has with respect to the Plan. Any interpretation of this Agreement by the Committee, and any decision made by the Committee with respect to this
Agreement, shall be final and binding.

inconsistency or discrepancy between the provisions of the CSU award covered by this Agreement and the terms and conditions of the Plan under which such CSUs are granted, the provisions in the Plan shall govern and prevail. The CSUs, the related
