 PERFORMANCE SHARE PROGRAM 

FEBRUARY 14, 2017 
 TARGET AWARD FOR PERFORMANCE PERIOD 17 
 PERFORMANCE SHARE UNIT

 AWARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS 
 FOR ELIGIBLE EMPLOYEES ON THE CANADA PAYROLL 
 These Performance Share Unit Award Terms and
Conditions describe terms and conditions of Performance Share Unit Awards, as part of the ConocoPhillips Performance Share Program (the “Program”), granted under the 2014 Omnibus Stock and Performance Incentive Plan of ConocoPhillips (the
“Plan”) by ConocoPhillips (“Company”) to you as an eligible employee (Employee). These Terms and Conditions, together with the Award Summary given to each Employee receiving an Award, form the Award Agreement (the
“Agreement”) relating to the Awards described. Subject to the Plan and this Agreement, the Company grants to the Employee Performance Share Units. Individual awards will be as set forth in the Award Summary given to each Employee to whom
an Award is granted. The Award Summary for each Employee is made a part of this Agreement with regard to such Employee. The Award Summary may be modified at any time to reflect increased or decreased amounts of the Award due to promotion or demotion
of the Employee and due to decisions made with regard to this Performance Period 17 of the Program, including adjustments related to the performance of the Company and adjustments related to the performance of the Employee; provided, however, that
after a Change of Control occurs, there shall be no decrease in the number of PSUs granted, except pursuant to the section titled “Detrimental Activities” below. Multiple book entry accounts may be used to reflect the total shares awarded
under these Terms and Conditions. This and any other administrative activities shall not be construed to alter these Terms and Conditions. 
 AWARD:            Performance Share Unit (PSU) Award granted by the Authorized Party under the provisions of the Plan. The PSUs will be noted
in a book entry account created for the Employee. 

PSU:                  
  A unit evidencing the right to receive either one share of ConocoPhillips Stock, $0.01 par value, or the Fair Market Value thereof under the circumstances described in these Terms and Conditions. 

VOTING RIGHTS:   The named owner of the PSUs has no voting rights for the units, but is considered
the beneficial owner for all purposes including ownership and control reports such as the annual proxy statement. 
 DIVIDEND EQUIVALENTS:   Dividend equivalent payment, equal to the regular dividend payment as declared by the Board of Directors on an equivalent number of common stock from time to time,
will be made to the named owner of the units beginning after 2019. No such dividend equivalent payments shall be made prior to 2020, nor shall such dividend 

  
 - 1 -

 
equivalent payments accrue or be owed with regard to any time prior to 2020. Under current tax law, these payments are taxable as compensation in the year distributed. 

RETIREMENT PLAN EARNINGS:      The issuance of these PSUs does not constitute earnings
under any retirement plan sponsored by a ConocoPhillips company. The value of the units at the time restrictions lapse also does not constitute earnings under any retirement plan sponsored by a ConocoPhillips company. Neither the issuance of nor
lapsing of restrictions on PSUs will have any impact on any retirement plans or any other compensation plan sponsored by a ConocoPhillips company. 
 TAX INFORMATION:   For an Employee subject to U.S. tax laws, this matter is more thoroughly covered in the document entitled “U.S. Tax Aspects of Performance Share Units.” Other
Employees should consult their tax advisors. However, in general terms, under current tax law, the value of these units is not considered taxable income until the restrictions lapse. 

BENEFICIARY:   In the event of the death of the named owner of these units prior to the lapsing of
restrictions for other reasons, such restrictions will lapse and shares of unrestricted common stock equal in number to the PSUs will be issued to the beneficiary designated by the named owner of the units. 

CHANGE OF CONTROL:   Upon a Change of Control, the following shall apply to the PSUs: 

 

	 	1.	Each Employee shall immediately become fully vested in such PSUs that are not assumed, or substituted for, by an acquirer in connection with the Change of Control, and
such PSUs shall not thereafter be forfeitable for any reason, except as set forth in the section titled “Detrimental Activities” below. 

  

	 	2.	With regard to any other PSUs, each Employee shall become fully vested in such PSUs upon incurring a Severance following such Change of Control, and such PSUs shall not
thereafter be forfeitable for any reason, except as set forth in the section titled “Detrimental Activities” below. 

  

	 	3.	In the event of vesting of PSUs pursuant to either paragraph 1 or 2 above, all restrictions and other limitations applicable to the PSUs shall lapse and the PSUs shall
be settled in unrestricted Stock or cash at the same times and upon the same events as it would otherwise have been made in accordance with the settlement provisions set forth in the section titled “Settlement” below.

 RESTRICTIONS:   The following restrictions relate to the PSUs: 

The PSUs will be held in escrow for the Employee. As provided herein, the Employee will have all rights of economic ownership to such
unit including the right to receive dividend equivalents as set forth in the section titled “Dividend Equivalents” above, except that the Employee shall not have the right to sell, transfer, assign, or otherwise dispose of such units until
the escrow is terminated (such restrictions being known as the “Transfer Restrictions”). 
 Unless postponed pursuant
to an effective election, as described in the sections titled “Initial Election” and “Subsequent Election” below, the escrow shall end on the earliest 

  
 - 2 -

 
of any of the following occurrences, with Transfer Restrictions to lapse and settlement be made as set forth in the section titled “Settlement” below: 

 

	 	1.	The Termination of the Employee’s employment as a result of Layoff of the Employee; 

 

	 	2.	The Termination of the Employee’s employment after attainment of age 55 and completion of 5 years of service with the Company or its subsidiaries;

  

	 	3.	The Termination of the Employee’s employment due to death; 

  

	 	4.	The Termination of the Employee’s employment following Disability of the Employee; 

 

	 	5.	The Termination of the Employee’s employment following a Change of Control; or 

 

	 	6.	February 20, 2020. 

 In the
absence of an effective election, as described in the sections titled “Initial Election” and “Subsequent Election” below, the Transfer Restrictions shall lapse and the PSUs (including any such that are awarded after the
Separation from Service of the Employee) shall be settled in unrestricted Stock on the date that is the later of (a) the end of the escrow period and (b) the earliest of the Employee’s death, February 20, 2020, or six months
after the date of the Employee’s Separation from Service for a reason other than death; provided, however, that settlement shall not be made before February 20, 2020. 

INITIAL ELECTION:   The Employee may elect on an election form delivered to the Authorized Party at a
time set by the Authorized Party (which shall be on or before December 31, 2016) to have the escrow for the PSUs continue and the Transfer Restrictions applicable to these PSUs continue and settlement in unrestricted Stock postponed and made in
either: 
  

	 	1.	one lump sum payment settled six months after Separation from Service with the Company and its subsidiaries, or 

 

	 	2.	in a series of annual installments, using a declining balance method, over a period of three, five, ten, or fifteen years after Separation from Service with the Company
and its subsidiaries. 

 In the absence of such an election, the escrow will end and settlement shall be made in
one lump sum payment in unrestricted Stock at the time and in the manner set forth in the sections titled “Restrictions” above and “Settlement” below. 

SUBSEQUENT ELECTION:   The Employee may make an election to change the time or form of payment
elected under the Initial Election section above or the payment to be made under the Restrictions section above, but only if the following rules are satisfied: 

	 	1.	The election to change the time or form of payment may not take effect until at least twelve months after the date on which such election is made;

  

	 	2.	Payment under such election may not be made earlier than at least five years from the date the payment would have otherwise been made or commenced;

  

	 	3.	An election may provide for either a lump sum payment or installment payments; 

 

	 	4.	An election to receive payments in installments shall be treated as a single payment for purposes of these rules; 

  
 - 3 -

	 	5.	Installment payments may be made only annually, over a period of from one to fifteen years as elected; 

 

	 	6.	The election may not result in an impermissible acceleration of payment prohibited under section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code; 

 

	 	7.	No more than four such elections shall be permitted with respect to the PSUs subject to this Award; and 

 

	 	8.	No payment may be made after the date that is twenty (20) years after the date of the Employee’s Separation from Service. 

If an election under this section becomes effective, the escrow and the Transfer Restrictions applicable to the PSUs shall continue
until the time set in the election for the settlement of the PSUs in as unrestricted Stock. 

SETTLEMENT:   The Company shall, at the time stated above, register in the name of the Employee
shares of Stock, free of any restriction, equal to the number of the PSUs, and the related PSUs shall be canceled. In all cases the Employee will be responsible to pay all required withholding taxes associated with the Award. The Employee must pay
any required withholding taxes by having shares equal in value to the applicable withholding taxes withheld by the Company (or such other method as the Company, in its sole discretion, allows). The value of the shares withheld for this purpose shall
be an amount consistent with the applicable laws and regulations. With regard to any fractional shares of Stock that might arise, the Company may deliver to the Employee cash equal to the Fair Market Value of such fractional shares. If Australian
tax law applies to the Employee, then an Award is a scheme to which Subdivision 83A-C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 of Australia applies (subject to the conditions in that Act). 

The Fair Market Value of the Award received by the Employee shall be determined in accordance with the definition and principles set
forth in the Plan. 
 FORFEITURE:   An Employee’s right, title, and interest in
Performance Share Units awarded under the PSP or derived from such Performance Share Units, or the ownership thereof, shall be forfeited if the Employee terminates employment prior to termination of the escrow period; provided, however, any transfer
between the Company and any Subsidiary, or between Subsidiaries at the request of the Company or such Subsidiaries, shall not result in forfeiture. Furthermore, an Employee’s right, title, and interest in Performance Share Units awarded under
the PSP or derived from such Performance Share Units, or the ownership thereof, shall be forfeited if the Employee does not complete twelve full months of employment in the Performance Period, unless otherwise approved by the Authorized Party.

 DETRIMENTAL ACTIVITIES:   If the Authorized Party determines that, subsequent to the
grant of any Award but prior to any Change of Control, the Employee has engaged or is engaging in any activity which, in the sole judgment of the Authorized Party, is or may be detrimental to the Company or a subsidiary, the Authorized Party may
cancel all or part of the PSUs held in escrow pursuant to the Award granted to that Employee. Upon any Change of Control, the Authorized Party may cancel all or part of the PSUs held in escrow pursuant to the Award granted to that Employee only upon
a determination by the Authorized Party that the Employee has given the Company Cause for such cancellation. 

  
 - 4 -

 If the Authorized Party, in its or his sole discretion, determines that the lapsing of
restrictions on PSUs held in escrow pursuant to any Award has the possibility of violating any law, regulation, or decree pertaining to the Company, any of its subsidiaries, or the Employee, the Authorized Party may freeze or suspend the
Employee’s right to settlement or payout of the Award until such time as the lapse of restrictions would no longer, in the sole discretion of the Authorized Party, have the possibility of violating such law, regulation, or decree. 

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Award is subject to forfeiture or recoupment, in whole or in part, under
applicable law, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the Dodd-Frank Act. 
 RECAPITALIZATION:
  Upon any change in the outstanding stock of the Company by reason of any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reclassification, or other similar change, the Committee shall make corresponding adjustments to
the PSUs.

 (a)    Restrictions and Terms. 

 

	 	(i)	The Award shall be held in escrow by the Company until the lapsing of restrictions placed upon the Award. The Employee shall not have the right to sell, transfer,
assign, or otherwise dispose of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units granted in an Award until the escrow is terminated. Except as set forth below, the Award shall be forfeited and the related Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units
canceled upon the Employee’s Termination of Employment with the Company prior to the lapsing of restrictions. Restrictions shall lapse on the Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units granted in an Award on the third anniversary of the Grant
Date. Upon the lapsing of restrictions, the number of shares of unrestricted Stock equal to the number of shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units for which the restrictions have so lapsed shall be registered in the Employee’s name,
and the related shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units shall be canceled; provided, however, that the Authorized Party may choose instead to issue any Restricted Stock with the restrictions removed, rather than cancel such Restricted
Stock and issue unrestricted Stock; and further provided, however, that in places where it is determined by the Authorized Party that payout in the form of unrestricted Stock is prohibited by law, regulation, or decree, or where the cost of legal
compliance to issue the unrestricted Stock would be unreasonably expensive, the Fair Market Value of such unrestricted Stock shall be paid in cash instead of settlement of the Award in unrestricted Stock. Cash payouts are only permitted where such
legal restrictions exist. Settlement of the Award in unrestricted Stock or cash payout, if any, shall be made upon the lapsing of restrictions on the Award, but, in any event, shall be made no later than March 15 of the year following the year
in which such restrictions lapse. 

  

	 	(ii)	Restricted Stock Units do not have any voting rights or other rights generally associated with Stock, and are merely an obligation of the Company to make settlement in
accordance with the terms and conditions applicable to such Restricted Stock Units. Restricted Stock Units granted to Employees who are resident in the United States or the United Kingdom on the Grant Date shall accrue a dividend equivalent at such
times as an ordinary quarterly cash dividend is paid on the Stock of the Company, which dividend equivalent shall be paid in cash to the Employee to whom the Award was made. Restricted Stock Units granted to Employees other than those described in
the previous sentence shall not accrue a dividend equivalent. Payment of a dividend equivalent, if any, shall be made on the first day of the third month of each calendar quarter (or, if the New York Stock Exchange is not open on such day, the first
day that the New York Stock Exchange is open thereafter), and, in any event, shall be made no later than March 15 of the year following the year in which the ordinary quarterly cash dividend is paid. 

 

	 	(iii)	 When an Award is made of Restricted Stock, such Restricted Stock will be held in escrow for the Employee to whom the Award is made. The Employee to
whom the Award is made will have all rights of ownership to such stock including, but not limited to, voting rights and the right to receive dividends, except that the Employee to whom the Award is made shall not have the right to sell, transfer,
assign, or otherwise dispose of 

  
 Page 2 of 11

	 	
such shares until the escrow is terminated. The escrow shall end upon, and to the extent of, the lapsing of restrictions. 

 (b)    Termination of Employment. 
  

	 	(i)	General Rule for Termination. If, prior to the date on which restrictions lapse in accordance with the schedule set forth in the Award, the Employee’s
employment with a Participating Company shall be terminated for any reason except death, Disability, Retirement, or Layoff, any Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units remaining in escrow pursuant to such Award shall be canceled and all rights
thereunder shall cease; provided, however, that the Authorized Party may, in its or his sole discretion, determine that all or any portion of an Award shall not be canceled due to Termination of Employment. 

 

	 	(ii)	Layoff Within Six Months. If, prior to a date six months from the date an Award is granted, the Employee’s employment with a Participating Company shall be
terminated by reason of Layoff, such Award shall be canceled and all rights thereunder shall cease. 

  

	 	(iii)	Layoff Within One Year. If, on or after a date six months from the date an Award is granted but prior to a date one year from the date an Award is granted, the
Employee’s employment with a Participating Company shall be terminated by reason of Layoff, the Employee shall retain a prorated number of the Award shares or units granted. The number of Award shares or units retained will be computed by
multiplying the original number of Award shares or units granted by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months of employment from the first day of the month in which the Award was granted until the date the employee is
terminated and the denominator of which is 12. Such calculation shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share. In such case, the restrictions on the prorated Award shall lapse on the date of Termination of the Employee from the employ of the
Company and its subsidiaries, and settlement shall be made in accordance with the settlement provisions above. 

  

	 	(iv)	Layoff After One Year. If, on or after a date one year from the date an Award is granted, the Employee’s employment with a Participating Company shall be
terminated by reason of Layoff, the Employee shall retain all rights provided by the Award at the time of such Termination of Employment. In such case, the restrictions on the Award shall lapse on the date of Termination of the Employee from the
employ of the Company and its subsidiaries, and settlement shall be made in accordance with the settlement provisions above. 

  

	 	(v)	Retirement After Six Months. If, on or after a date six months after the Grant Date of an Award, the Employee’s employment with a Participating Company
shall be terminated by reason of Retirement, the Employee shall retain all rights provided by the Award at the time of such Termination of Employment. In such case, the restrictions on the Award shall lapse on the date of Termination of the Employee
from the employ of the Company and its subsidiaries, and settlement shall be made in accordance with the settlement provisions above. 

  

	 	(vi)	Disability. If, after the date the Award is granted, an Employee shall terminate employment following Disability of the Employee, the Employee shall retain all
rights provided by the Award at the time of such Termination of Employment. In such case, the restrictions on the Award shall lapse on the date of Termination of Employment from the employ of the Company and its subsidiaries, and settlement shall be
made in accordance with the settlement provisions above. 

  

	 	(vii)	 Death. If, after the date an Award is granted, a Employee shall die while in the employ of a Participating Company, or after Termination
of Employment by reason of Retirement, Disability, or Layoff (and prior to the cancellation of the Award), the executor or administrator of the estate of the Employee or the person or persons to whom

  
 Page 3 of 11

	 	
the Award shall have been validly transferred by the executor or the administrator pursuant to will or the laws of descent and distribution shall have the right to settlement of the Award to the
same extent the Employee would have, had the Employee not died. In such case, the restrictions on the Award shall lapse upon the determination of death by the Authorized Party, and settlement shall be made in accordance with the settlement
provisions above. No transfer of an Award, or of the unrestricted Stock or other proceeds of an Award, by the Employee by will or by the laws of descent and distribution shall be effective to bind the Company unless the Authorized Party shall have
been furnished with written notice thereof and a copy of the will and such other evidence as the Authorized Party may deem necessary to establish the validity of the transfer and the acceptance by the transferee or transferees of the terms and
conditions of such Award. 

  

	 	(viii)	Transfers and Leaves. Transfer of employment between Participating Companies shall not constitute Termination of Employment for the purpose of any Award granted
under the Program. Whether any leave of absence shall constitute Termination of Employment for the purposes of any Award granted under the Program shall be determined by the Authorized Party, in each case in accordance with applicable law and by
application of the policies and procedures adopted by the Company in relation to such leave of absence. 

  

	 	(ix)	Divestiture, Outsourcing, or Move to Joint Venture. If, after the date the Award is granted, an Employee ceases to be employed by Participating Company as a
result of (a) the outsourcing of a function, (b) the sale or transfer of all or a portion of the equity interest of such Participating Company (removing it from the controlled group of companies of which the Company is a part), (c) the
sale of all or substantially all of the assets of such Participating Company to another employer outside of the controlled group of corporations (whether the Employee is offered employment or accepts employment with the other employer), (d) the
Termination of the Employee by a Participating Company followed by employment within a reasonable time with a company or other entity in which the Company owns, directly or indirectly, at least a 50% interest, or (e) any other sale of assets
determined by the Authorized Party to be considered a divestiture under this Program, the Authorized Party may, in its or his sole discretion, determine that all or a portion of any such Award shall not be canceled. In such cases, the restrictions
on the Award shall lapse on the date of Termination of the Employee from the employ of the Company and its subsidiaries, and settlement shall be made in accordance with the settlement provisions above. 

 

	 	(x)	Change of Control. Upon a Change of Control, the following shall apply to any Award: 

 

	 	(1)	Each Employee shall immediately become fully vested in such Award that is not assumed, or substituted for, by an acquirer in connection with the Change of Control, and
such Award shall not thereafter be forfeitable for any reason, except as set forth in Section 3(c). 

  

	 	(2)	With regard to any other Award, each Employee shall become fully vested in such Award upon incurring a Severance following such Change of Control, and such Award shall
not thereafter be forfeitable for any reason, except as set forth in Section 3(c). 

  

	 	(3)	In the event of vesting of an Award pursuant to either Section 3(x)(1) or Section 3(x)(2), all restrictions and other limitations applicable to any Restricted Stock
granted in any Award shall lapse. With regard to such Restricted Stock, it shall become free of all restrictions and become transferable. With regard to such Restricted Stock Units, all restrictions and other limitations applicable to the Restricted
Stock Units shall lapse and the Restricted Stock Units shall be settled in unrestricted Stock or cash at the same times and upon the same events as it would otherwise have been made in accordance with the settlement provisions above.

  
 Page 4 of 11

	 	(xi)	Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that this Award or the dividend equivalents associated with this Award are includible in income pursuant
to section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, settlement of the Award or any other distribution hereunder due to Separation from Service with the Company and its subsidiaries shall not be made to a “specified employee” (as that term is
defined in section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i)) prior to six months after the specified employee’s Separation from Service from the Company and its subsidiaries (or, if earlier, the date of death of the specified employee). 

 

	(c)    Detrimental	Activities and Suspension of Award. 

  

	 	(i)	If the Authorized Party determines that, subsequent to the grant of any Award but prior to any Change of Control, the Employee has engaged or is engaging in any
activity which, in the sole judgment of the Authorized Party, is or may be detrimental to the Company or a subsidiary, the Authorized Party may cancel all or part of the Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units held in escrow pursuant to the Award
or Awards granted to that Employee. Upon any Change of Control, the Authorized Party may cancel all or part of the Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units held in escrow pursuant to the Award granted to the Employee only upon a determination by
the Authorized Party that the Employee has given the Company Cause for such cancellation. 

  

	 	(ii)	If the Authorized Party, in its or his sole discretion, determines that the lapsing of restrictions on Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units held in escrow
pursuant to any Award has the possibility of violating any law, regulation, or decree pertaining to the Company, any of its subsidiaries, or the Employee, the Authorized Party may freeze or suspend the Employee’s right to settlement or payout
of the Award until such time as the lapse of restrictions would no longer, in the sole discretion of the Authorized Party, have the possibility of violating such law, regulation, or decree. 

 

	 	(iii)	Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Award is subject to forfeiture or recoupment, in whole or in part, under applicable law, including the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the Dodd-Frank Act. 

  

	4.	Assignment of Award Upon Death. Rights under the Plans and this Agreement cannot be assigned or transferred other than by (i) will or (ii) the
laws of descent and distribution. 

  

	5.	 Tax Withholding. In all cases the Employee will be responsible to pay all required withholding taxes applicable to an Award. Should a
withholding tax obligation arise with regard to an Award or the lapsing of restrictions on Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units granted in an Award, the withholding tax may be satisfied by withholding shares of Stock. The value of the shares
of Stock withheld for this purpose shall be an amount consistent with applicable laws and regulations. In cases where a withholding tax obligation arises prior to the lapse of restrictions on Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units granted in an
Award, the withholding tax may be satisfied instead by payment of cash by the Employee. Payment of cash shall not be allowed unless the Employee has elected to make such payment by payroll withholding over a period of six months following the date
the obligation shall arise, which election must be made within thirty days of the Grant Date of the relevant Award. If any interest is required under local laws, regulations, or decrees to be charged on or imputed against the payroll withholding,
the Employee shall be responsible for paying such interest, which shall be withheld from pay over the same six-month period. In cases where payment by payroll withholding cannot be made due to circumstances
arising after the election or where the Authorized Party has determined that such withholding would violate any applicable law, regulation, or decree, shares of Stock shall be withheld instead. When necessary, lapsing of restrictions may be
accelerated by the Authorized Party to the extent necessary to provide shares of Stock to satisfy any withholding tax obligation. This withholding tax obligation includes, but is not limited to, federal, state, and local taxes, including applicable non-U.S. taxes such as U.K. PAYE. If Australian tax law applies to the 

  
 Page 5 of 11

	 	
Employee, then an Award is a scheme to which Subdivision 83A-C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 of Australia applies (subject to the conditions in
that Act). 

  

	6.	Shareholder Rights for Restricted Stock Units. The Employee shall not have the rights of a shareholder until the Restricted Stock Unit has been canceled
and ownership of shares of Stock has been transferred to the Employee. As described above, the Company may pay dividend equivalents with regard to Restricted Stock Units in certain circumstances. 

 

	7.	Certain Adjustments. In the event certain corporate transactions, recapitalizations, or stock splits occur while Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock
Units are outstanding, the Grant Price and the number of shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units shall be correspondingly adjusted. 

  

	8.	Relationship to the Plan. In addition to the terms and conditions described in this Agreement, Awards are subject to all other applicable provisions of
the Plan. The decisions of the Committee with respect to questions arising as to the interpretation of the Plan or this Agreement or as to findings of fact shall be final, conclusive, and binding. 

 

	9.	No Employment Guarantee. No provision of this Agreement shall confer any right upon the Employee to continued employment with any Participating Company.

  

	10.	Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, construed, and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware.

  

	11.	Amendment. Without the consent of the Employee, this Agreement may be amended or supplemented (i) to cure any ambiguity or to correct or supplement
any provision herein which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision herein, or (ii) to add to the covenants and agreements of the Company for the benefit of an Employee or to add to the rights of an Employee or to surrender any
right or power reserved to or conferred upon the Company in this Agreement, provided, in each case, that such changes or corrections shall not adversely affect the rights of the Employee with respect to the grant of an Award evidenced hereby without
the Employee’s consent, or (iii) to make such other changes as the Company, upon advice of counsel, determines are necessary or advisable because of the adoption or promulgation of, or change in or of the interpretation of, any law or
governmental rule or regulation, including any applicable federal or state securities or tax laws.

other than a corporation, resulting from such Business Combination or the combined voting power of the then outstanding Voting Stock of such corporation or other entity, and (iii) at least a majority of the members of the board of directors of
the corporation, or the body which is most analogous to the board of directors of a corporation if not a corporation, resulting from such Business Combination were members of the Incumbent Board at the time of the initial agreement or initial action
