This Amendment to the 2014 Performance Program Agreement (Business Performance) is entered into in connection with the Recipient’s release from service
with Apache Corporation (together with its Affiliates, the “Company”) effective June 30, 2015 (the “Termination Date”) and the terms of the release and separation agreement between the Recipient and the Company (the
“Release Agreement”) and governs the Final Amount of the conditional award of RSUs under the Plan and the 2014 Agreement, between the Company and the Recipient. 
  

	 	1.	Section 4 of the 2014 Agreement is hereby amended to add a new paragraph at the end thereof, which shall read as follows: 


Release Agreement. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4 of the 2014 Agreement or the provisions of the Award Notice or
the Plan to the contrary, for purposes of vesting of the Final Amount of RSUs, the Recipient shall be deemed to satisfy the conditions for continued vesting of Section 6 of the 2014 Agreement as of the Termination Date, provided that the
Recipient remains in compliance with the provisions of the Release Agreement. The Recipient shall immediately notify the Company of any future change in address or other contact information. 

 

	 	2.	The remaining terms of the 2014 Agreement and the Plan shall continue in full force and effect except as provided in the controlling Apache Corporation Employee Release and Settlement Agreement between Recipient and
Apache Corporation. 

  

	 	3.	This Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together
