 SECTION 3. 
 AMOUNT OF RETIREMENT BENEFIT 
  
 3.1 The annual retirement benefit payable under the Plan at a Normal
Retirement Date shall be a single life annuity for the life of the Participant which is equal to the lesser of the following: 
  
 (a) The sum of six percent (6%) of Average Earnings times the Participant’s Years of Service less than or equal to five (5) Years of
Service, plus three percent (3%) of Average Earnings times the Participant’s Years of Service greater than five (5) Years of Service, or 
  
 (b) Sixty percent (60%) of Average Earnings. 
  
 3.2 The annual retirement benefit payable under the Plan at an Early Retirement Date shall be equal to the benefit determined under Section 3.1, reduced
by one percent (1%) for each year that the Participant’s Age precedes sixty-five (65) as of the date his benefit commences; provided that, no reduction shall apply if his Age plus Years of Service equals or exceeds seventy (70), as of the date
his benefit commences. 
  
 3.3 The annual benefit payable at a
Postponed Retirement Date shall be equal to the benefit determined in accordance with Section 3.1, based on Years of Service and Average Earnings as of the Participant’s Postponed Retirement Date. 
  
 3.4 The annual benefit payable at a Vested Retirement Date shall be equal to
the benefit determined in Section 3.1, reduced by one percent (1%) for each year that the Participant’s Age precedes sixty-five (65) as of the date his benefit commences; provided that no reduction shall apply if his Age at the date his benefit
commences plus Years of Service equals or exceeds seventy (70). 
  
 3.5 Any benefit payable under this Section 3 shall be offset by an amount actuarially equivalent to the benefit, if any, payable to the Participant upon his termination of employment under the Premcor Inc. Pension Plan, regardless of
whether payment of benefits under such plan commences upon his termination of employment. A Participant shall not accrue a benefit under the non-qualified Premcor Inc. Pension Restoration Plan during the period in which he 

  

 4 

 
participates in the Plan. Actuarial equivalence shall be determined in accordance with Section 4.2. 
  
 SECTION 4. 
 PAYMENT OF RETIREMENT BENEFITS 
  
 4.1 Benefits payable in accordance with Section 3 of the Plan will normally commence on the first day of the month following the Participant’s Retirement in the form of a single life annuity, payable monthly, for
the Participant’s life. A Participant may elect to defer receipt of his benefits until a later date and/or receive his benefits (including the actuarial equivalent of any death benefits payable to a Surviving Spouse under Section 5.2) in the
form of a lump sum upon his Retirement, including the actuarial equivalent of the Participant’s benefits as of his Vested Retirement Date (or, with prior Committee approval, any other actuarially equivalent form); provided that, an election to
do so shall be effective only if made on or before the date which is twelve (12) months before the Participant’s termination of employment. Notwithstanding the above, the initial election of a Participant upon his commencement in the Plan shall
become immediately effective. Such election shall be made within 30 days. In addition, any change to such election (including revocation of a prior election) shall be effective only if made on or before the date which is twelve (12) months before
the Participant’s termination of employment. Notwithstanding the above, following Retirement, a Participant who elects to receive his benefit in the form of a stream of payments may elect to receive his remaining benefit as an actuarially
equivalent lump sum; provided that, such lump sum representing the remaining benefit shall be reduced by a penalty of ten percent (10%), unless a change of control has occurred or is expected to occur shortly, in which case the penalty shall be
reduced to five percent (5%). 
  
 4.2 For all purposes of the
Plan, actuarial equivalence of benefits shall be determined using a discount rate equal to the average yield on state and local government bonds rated AAA, as published in the Federal Reserve Statistical Release H 15 (519), or its equivalent, for
the three (3) month period prior to the payment date and the applicable mortality table described in Section 417(e)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. 
  
 SECTION 5. 
 DEATH
BENEFITS PAYABLE 
  
 5.1 If a Participant dies prior to
Retirement, such Participant’s designated beneficiary shall receive a benefit which is actuarially equivalent to the benefit the Participant would have received if he had retired on the date of his death with a fully vested benefit; provided,
however, that if the Participant’s designated beneficiary is a Surviving Spouse, such benefit shall not be less than an annual benefit for the life of the Surviving Spouse equal to 50% of the Participant’s Average Earnings as of his date
of death. In addition, each Dependent Child will receive $1,000 per month ($5,000 per month if both the Participant and Surviving Spouse are deceased) through the month in which the Dependent Child attains age eighteen (18) or, if a full-time
student, age twenty-five (25). If a Participant has more than three (3) children, a maximum of three (3) times the above benefit shall be divided among the children. The benefits provided by this Section 5.1 shall commence as of the first day of the
month following the month in which the Participant dies and shall terminate on the first day of the month in which the Surviving Spouse dies. 
  

 5 

 Prior to his death, a Participant may elect to have his designated beneficiary or Surviving Spouse and
each Dependent Child receive the benefit described in this Section 5.1 in the form of an actuarially equivalent single lump sum, to be paid as soon as practicable following his death. 
  
 5.2 If a Participant should die after Retirement, the Surviving Spouse will receive an annual benefit, payable monthly,
equal to fifty percent (50%) of the Participant’s normal form of benefit (as described in the first sentence of Section 4.1) upon Retirement for the lifetime of the Surviving Spouse; provided that, if the Participant received the actuarial
equivalent of this benefit upon Retirement in the form of a lump sum payment in accordance with a valid election as described in Section 4.1, no benefit shall be paid to the Surviving Spouse pursuant to this Section 5.2. In addition, each Dependent
Child will receive $1,000 per month ($5,000 per month if both the Participant and Spouse are deceased) through the month in which the Dependent Child attains age eighteen (18) or, if a full-time student, age twenty-five (25). If a Participant has
more than three (3) children, a maximum of three (3) times the above benefit shall be divided among the children. The benefits provided by this Section 5.2 shall commence as of the first day of the month following the date of the Participant’s
death and shall terminate on the first day of the month in which the Surviving Spouse dies, or the Dependent Children reach the maximum age for payment under this Section 5 (or die, if earlier). 
  
 Prior to his death, a Participant may elect to have his Surviving Spouse and
each Dependent Child receive the benefit described in this Section 5.2 in the form of an actuarially equivalent single lump sum, to be payable as soon as practicable following his death. 
  
 SECTION 6. 
 DISABILITY BENEFITS PAYABLE 
  
 6.1 In the event a
Participant’s employment is terminated for disability under the terms of his employment agreement with the Company, the Participant shall be entitled to retire on his Disability Retirement Date. 
  
 6.2 The annual disability benefit will be equal to sixty percent (60%) of the
Participant’s Average Earnings determined as of his date of disability. 
  
 6.3 The disability benefit determined in accordance with Section 6.2 will be reduced by (a) any benefit payable under any Company-sponsored long-term disability plan, (b) any Social Security benefits awarded or
benefits awarded under any other government-sponsored or government-mandated program, including Workers’ Compensation, and (c) an amount actuarially equivalent to the benefit, if any, then paid to the Participant under the Premcor Inc. Pension
Plan. 
  
 6.4 Disability benefits will be payable monthly and will
commence on the Participant’s Disability Retirement Date. The last payment will be as of the first of the month during which the disabled Participant either recovers or dies. If a Participant remains disabled until Age sixty-five (65), he shall
be deemed to be disabled thereafter. If a disabled Participant recovers, he may be eligible for a Retirement benefit under Section 3 if he satisfies the eligibility requirements for a Normal, Early, Postponed or Vested Retirement Date. 

 

 6 

 6.5 In the event a disabled Participant dies, such Participant’s designated beneficiary shall
receive a benefit which is actuarially equivalent to the benefit the Participant would have received if he had retired on the date of his death with a fully vested benefit; provided, however, that if the designated beneficiary is a Surviving Spouse,
such benefit shall not be less than an annual benefit for the life of the Surviving Spouse equal to 50% of the amount determined in Section 6.2. In addition, each Dependent Child will receive $1,000 per month ($5,000 per month if both the
Participant and Spouse are deceased) through the month in which the Dependent Child attains age eighteen (18) or, if a full-time student, age twenty-five (25). If a Participant has more than three (3) children, a maximum of three (3) times the above
benefit shall be divided among the children. The benefits provided by this Section 6.5 shall commence as of the first day of the month following the date of the Participant’s death and shall terminate on the first day of the month in which the
Surviving Spouse dies. No death benefits shall be payable under Section 5 upon the death of a disabled Participant. 
  
 Prior to his death, a Participant may elect to have his designated beneficiary or Surviving Spouse and each Dependent Child receive the benefit described
in this Section 6.5 in the form of an actuarially equivalent single lump sum, to be paid as soon as practicable following his death. 
  
 SECTION 7. 
 MEDICAL BENEFITS 
  
 7.1 Each Participant with at least three (3) Years of Service, his spouse,
and each Dependent Child until age eighteen (18) or, if a full-time student, age twenty-five (25), shall be entitled to receive medical benefits following the termination of the Participant’s employment with the Company. Such benefits will be
made available commencing with termination of a Participant’s employment with the Company and shall continue as long as the Participant, his spouse and each Dependent Child pay, on a timely basis, a monthly amount generally equivalent to the
amount of the medical payroll deduction applicable to the Participant on the date his participation in the Plan commences. Such benefits shall be generally commensurate with those which the Company offers from time to time to its active employees
who are in positions similar to the position the Participant held on the date the Participant terminated employment. To the extent the benefits provided to a Participant, his spouse and each Dependent Child under this Section 7.1 are substantially
and materially reduced as compared to the benefits provided to them as of the date the Participant terminates employment, the Participant (or his spouse and each Dependent Child, if the Participant dies) shall receive a reduction in the monthly
amount payable or periodic cash payments from the Company equivalent to the value of the substantial and material reduction. The value of medical benefits for purposes of the preceding sentence shall be determined using generally accepted methods
for calculating actuarial equivalence of medical benefits. 
  
 SECTION 8. 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
  
 8.1 The Committee may, in its sole discretion, terminate, suspend, or amend this Plan at any time or from time to time, in whole or in part; provided,
however, no amendment, termination, or suspension of the Plan may adversely affect a Participant’s right or the right of a 

  

 7 

 
Surviving Spouse or Dependent Child of a Participant to any benefit as set forth in this Plan as of the day prior to such amendment, termination, or
suspension of the Plan. 
  
 8.2 Nothing contained herein will
confer upon any Participant the right to be retained in the service of the Company, nor will, it interfere with the right of the Company to discharge or otherwise deal with Participants without regard to the existence of this Plan. 
  
 8.3 This Plan shall be unfunded. All payments to a Participant under the Plan
shall be made from the general, assets of the Participant’s employer. In the event the Participant’s employer is unable to make a payment to the Participant, the payment shall be made from the general assets of the Company. The rights of
any Participant to payment shall be those of an unsecured general creditor of his employer or the Company, as applicable. 
  
 8.4 To the maximum extent permitted by law, no benefit under this Plan shall be assignable or subject in any manner to alienation, sale, transfer, claims
of creditors, pledge, attachment, or encumbrances of any kind. 
  
 8.5 The Committee may adopt rules and regulations to assist it in the administration of the Plan. Each Participant shall receive a copy of this Plan and the Committee will make available for inspection by any Participant a copy of the rules
and regulations used by the Committee in administering the Plan. 
  
 8.6 A Participant who believes that he is being denied a benefit to which he is entitled may file a written request for such benefit with the head of the Human Resources Department setting forth his claim. The request must be addressed to
the Human Resources Department, Premcor Inc., at its then current address. Upon receipt of a claim, the claimant shall be advised that a reply will be forthcoming within a reasonable period of time, but ordinarily not later than ninety (90) days,
and shall in fact deliver such reply within such period. However, the head of the Human Resources Department may extend the reply period for an additional ninety (90) days for reasonable cause. If the claim is denied in whole or in part, the head of
the Human Resources Department will adopt a written opinion using language calculated to be understood by the claimant setting forth (1) the specific reason or reasons for denial, (2) specific references to pertinent Plan provisions on which the
denial is based, (3) a description of any additional material or information necessary for the claimant to perfect the claim and an explanation why such material or such information is necessary, (4) appropriate information as to the steps to be
taken if the claimant wishes to submit the claim for review, including a statement of the claimant’s right to bring a civil action under Section 502(a) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”)
following an adverse benefit determination on review, and (5) the time limits for requesting a review. 
  
 Within sixty (60) days after the receipt of the written opinion, the claimant may request in writing that the Committee review the denial. The request
must be addressed to the Committee at Premcor Inc.’s then current address. If the claimant does not request a review of the prior determination within such sixty (60) day period, he shall be barred and estopped from challenging such
determination. 
  

 8 

 Within a reasonable period of time, ordinarily not later than sixty (60) days after the Committee’s
receipt of a request for review, it will review the prior determination. If special circumstances require, the sixty (60) day period may be extended for an additional sixty (60) days. The decision of the Committee shall be final and nonreviewable
unless found to be arbitrary and capricious by a court of competent review. Such decision will be binding upon the Company and the claimant. If the Committee makes an adverse benefit determination on review, the Committee will render a written
opinion using language calculated to be understood by the claimant setting forth (1) the specific reason or reasons for denial, (2) the specific references to pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial is based, (3) a statement that the claimant
is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records and other information which (a) was relied upon by the Committee in making its decision, (b) was submitted, considered or generated
in the course of the Committee making its decision,, without regard to whether such instrument was actually relied upon or (c) demonstrates compliance by the Committee with its administrative processes and safeguards designed to ensure and to verify
that benefit claims determinations are made in accordance with governing Plan documents and that, where appropriate, the Plan provisions have been applied consistently with respect to similarly situated claimants, and (4) a statement of the
claimant’s right to bring a civil action under Section 502(c) of ERISA following an adverse benefit determination on review. 
  
 Notwithstanding the above, if a claimant is denied a benefit because he is determined not to be disabled and he makes a claim pursuant to such denial, the
following provisions shall apply. Upon receipt of a claim, the reply period shall be forty-five (45) days. If, prior to the end of the initial 45-day period, the head of the Human Resources Department determines that, due to matters beyond his or
her control, a decision cannot be rendered within such 45-day period, the period for making the determination may be extended for up to thirty (30) days. If, prior to the end of the first 30-day extension period, the head of the Human Resources
Department determines that, due to matters beyond his or her control, a decision cannot be rendered within that extension period, the period for making the determination may be extended for up to an additional thirty (30) days. The head of the Human
Resources Department shall notify the claimant, prior to the expiration of any applicable extension period, of the circumstances requiring an extension and the date by which he or she expects to render a decision. In the case of any extension
described in this paragraph, the notice of extension shall specifically explain the standards on which entitlement to a benefit is based, the unresolved issues that prevent a decision on the claim and the additional information needed to resolve
those issues, and the claimant shall be afforded forty-five (45) days within which to provide the specified information. If information is requested, the period for making the benefit determination shall be tolled from the date on which notification
of an extension is sent to the claimant until the date on which the claimant responds to the request for information. 
  
 Within one hundred eighty (180) days after receiving the written notice of an adverse disposition of the claim, the claimant may request in writing, and
shall be entitled to, a review of the benefit determination. In deciding an appeal of any adverse benefit determination that is based in whole or in part on a medical judgment, the Committee shall consult with a health care professional who has
appropriate training and experience in the field of medicine involved in the medical judgment. Such health care professional shall be an individual who is neither an individual who was consulted in connection with the adverse benefit determination

  

 9 

 
that is the subject of the appeal nor the subordinate of any such individual. The medical or vocational experts whose advice was obtained on behalf of the
Committee in connection with the claimant’s adverse benefit determination will be identified to the claimant. If the claimant does not request a review within one hundred eighty (180) days after receiving written notice of the original
disposition of the claim, the claimant shall be deemed to have accepted the original written disposition. 
  
 A decision on review shall be rendered in writing by the Committee within a reasonable period of time, but ordinarily not later than forty-five (45) days
after receipt of the claimant’s request for review by the Committee, unless the Committee determines that special circumstances require an extension of time for processing the claim. If the Committee determines that an extension of time for
processing is required, written notice of the extension shall be furnished to the claimant prior to the termination of the initial forty-five (45) period. In no event shall such extension exceed a period of forty-five (45) days from the end of the
initial period. The extension notice shall indicate the special circumstances requiring an extension of time and the date by which the Committee expects to render the determination on review. In the event the extension is due to a claimant’s
failure to submit information necessary to decide the claim, the claimant shall be afforded forty-five (45) days within which to provide the specified information, and the period for making the benefit determination on review shall be tolled from
the date on which notification of the extension is sent to the claimant until the date on which the claimant responds to the request for additional information. 
  

In the case of an adverse benefit determination on review, in addition to the information described above, the notice shall state: “You and your
Plan may have other voluntary alternative dispute resolution options, such as mediation. One way to find out what may be available is to contact your local U.S. Department of Labor Office and your State insurance regulatory agency.” 

 
 8.7 The Company shall have the right to provide any benefit hereunder
through insurance or other arrangements which, may be more tax efficient or reduce the expense associated with provision of the benefits hereunder. 
  
 8.8 If a Participant shall not have designated a beneficiary to receive any benefit payable hereunder, or the beneficiary predeceases the Participant, the
Participant’s estate shall be deemed to be his designated beneficiary. 
  
 8.9 This Plan is established under and will be construed according to the laws of the State of Delaware.

 Dear [Executive’s Name—see Schedule A attached hereto] 
  
 On [agreement date] you executed an Employment Agreement (“Agreement”) with Premcor Inc. (“Company”) that provided that
you would receive an annual grant of stock options under terms defined in the Agreement. This letter shall be an Amendment to the Agreement (“Amendment”). For purposes of this Amendment, unless defined herein, capitalized terms used herein
have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement. 
  
 Management and the
Company’s Board of Directors has determined that it is desirable to modify the terms for the year 2005 only of the grant of stock options. Under these new terms, during the month of January of the year 2005, you will receive a grant of options
to purchase [see schedule A attached hereto] shares of Company common stock at an exercise price per share equal to Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan) on the date of grant (the “Annual Options”). Subject to your continued
employment with the Company, such Annual Options will vest in equal installments on each of the first five anniversaries of the date of grant, and will become fully vested upon the occurrence of a Change in Control of the Company. Other terms and
conditions of the Annual Options shall be as set forth your Agreement, in the Plan, and an option agreement between you and the Company. If the Company should, prior to any Annual Option grant, be involved in any merger, reorganization, stock split
or spinoff or other similar event, the number of shares subject to the Annual Options yet to be granted, as provided above, shall be adjusted on a pro rata basis. 
  
 Your acceptance of this Amendment shall serve as your consent to the change in terms with respect to your Annual Options. This Amendment
shall also serve as a waiver by you of the change in terms of your Annual Options as a purported breach of your employment agreement. 
  
 Please execute one copy of this letter and return it to the Human Resources Department. 
  
 Sincerely, 
  
 /s/    Thomas D. O’Malley
