The Compensation Committee of the Board of the Company hereby grants to you, the above-named Grantee, effective as of the Date of Grant set forth above, a SAR Award that entitles you to receive, upon exercise hereof, the number of shares of Stock determined by multiplying the excess of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of exercise over the Award Price per SAR set forth above by the number of shares of Stock with respect to which the SAR Award is exercised and dividing the resulting product by the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of exercise.

To the extent vested, this SAR Award may be exercised in whole or in part unless and until it terminates or is forfeited or canceled.

Tax Obligations. To the extent that the exercise of this SAR Award results in income to you for federal, state or local income, employment or other tax purposes with respect to which the Company or an Affiliate has a withholding obligation, the Company or such Affiliate is authorized to withhold from the shares subject to this SAR Award any tax required to be withheld by reason of such taxable income, sufficient to satisfy the withholding obligation.

General. This Performance Unit Award Agreement (this “Agreement”) is governed by the terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated EOG Resources, Inc. 2008 Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan (as may be amended from time to time, the “Plan”), which is hereby made a part of this Agreement. All capitalized terms that are not defined in this Agreement have the meanings ascribed to them under the Plan. Under the terms of this Agreement and the Plan, a Performance Unit ledger account will be maintained by the Company (or its agent) until you become vested in the Performance Units (i.e., the lapse of the forfeiture restrictions thereon) or the Performance Units are forfeited and canceled pursuant to this Agreement.

Performance Period; TSR Rank; Performance Multiple. Upon the completion of the Performance Period (as defined on Annex A) and the certification (in writing) by the Committee of the Total Shareholder Return (as defined on Annex A) over the Performance Period of the Company and each Peer Company (as defined on Annex A) and the Company’s corresponding TSR Rank (see chart on Annex A) for the Performance Period and the applicable Performance Multiple (as specified in the chart on Annex A)(the date of such certification by the Committee, the “Certification Date”), such Performance Multiple shall be applied to the number of Performance Units granted hereunder and, except in the case of an applicable Performance Multiple of 100% or an applicable Performance Multiple of 0% (in which case all Performance Units granted hereunder shall be deemed forfeited and canceled), your Performance Unit ledger account shall be adjusted to reflect (i) the additional Performance Units credited to you (in the case of a Performance Multiple greater than 100%) or (ii) your decreased Performance Units (in the case of a Performance Multiple less than 100% but greater than 0%).

Voting Rights; Dividend Equivalents. You will have no voting rights with respect to the Company common stock represented by your Performance Units (including any additional Performance Units which may be credited to you upon the completion of the Performance Period based on the applicable Performance Multiple) until such time as the Company common stock is issued to you upon your vesting in the Performance Units. Dividend equivalents on unvested Performance Units shall accrue and be credited by the Company for your benefit, and any such dividend equivalents accrued and credited for your benefit shall have the same Performance Multiple applied as is applied to your Performance Units. However, such dividend equivalents shall not be paid to you until you become vested in the related Performance Units and shall be forfeited in the event of the forfeiture and cancellation of the related Performance Units pursuant to this Agreement.

Vesting. Assuming your continuous employment with the Company or an Affiliate, this Award shall vest as of the close of business on the Vesting Date, and the shares of Company common stock represented (on a one-for-one basis) by the Performance Units granted hereunder (as adjusted for the applicable Performance Multiple) and all dividend equivalents with respect to such Performance Units shall be distributed to you on the first business day following the Vesting Date or as soon as administratively practicable thereafter, but no later than 60 days after such date.

“Total Shareholder Return” for a company (i.e., for the Company or a Peer Company) shall mean such company’s average daily closing stock price for the month immediately preceding the commencement of the Performance Period (i.e., December of the year of the Grant Date) as compared to the average daily closing stock price for the end month of the Performance Period (i.e., December of the third year immediately following the year of the Grant Date, except as provided above under “Vesting Upon a Change in Control” in the case of a Change in Control of the Company), assuming the reinvestment of dividends and as adjusted for stock splits, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other similar adjustments or changes in the company’s capital structure, and expressed as a percentage (positive or negative (as the case may be)). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Total Shareholder Return for a Replaced Peer Company (as defined below) shall be determined as set forth in the “Total Shareholder Return – Replaced Peer Company” definition below.

“Total Shareholder Return – Replaced Peer Company” for a Replaced Peer Company shall mean the percentage (positive or negative (as the case may be)) equal to the product of (A) multiplied by (B), minus 100%, where:
