All statements other than statements of historical fact included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, including, without limitation, statements regarding our future financial position, business strategy, budgets, projected revenues, projected costs and plans, objectives of management for future operations, and the anticipated impact of the Shell Enterprise LLC (&#8220;</font><font style="font-style:italic;letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Shell</font><font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">&#8221;) transaction on the company&#8217;s business and future financial and operating results are forward-looking statements. Examples of forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus include our expected production growth and outlook on the business environment generally, our expected capital budget and capital expenditures, and discussions concerning future dividends. You can often identify our forward-looking statements by the words &#8220;anticipate,&#8221; &#8220;believe,&#8221; &#8220;budget,&#8221; &#8220;continue,&#8221; &#8220;could,&#8221; &#8220;effort,&#8221; &#8220;estimate,&#8221; &#8220;expect,&#8221; &#8220;forecast,&#8221; &#8220;intend,&#8221; &#8220;goal,&#8221; &#8220;guidance,&#8221; &#8220;may,&#8221; &#8220;objective,&#8221; &#8220;outlook,&#8221; &#8220;plan,&#8221; &#8220;potential,&#8221; &#8220;predict,&#8221; &#8220;projection,&#8221; &#8220;seek,&#8221; &#8220;should,&#8221; &#8220;target,&#8221; &#8220;will,&#8221; &#8220;would&#8221; and similar expressions. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">We based the forward-looking statements on our current expectations, estimates and projections about ourselves and the industries in which we operate in general. We caution you these statements are not guarantees of future performance as they involve assumptions that, while made in good faith, may prove to be incorrect, and involve risks and uncertainties we cannot predict. In addition, we based many of these forward-looking statements on assumptions about future events that may prove to be inaccurate. Accordingly, our actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what we have expressed or forecast in the forward-looking statements. See the risks identified under the heading &#8220;Risk Factors&#8221; contained in this prospectus.

ConocoPhillips is a legal entity separate and distinct from its subsidiaries, and holders of the Registered Notes will be able to look only to ConocoPhillips or to CPCo, as guarantor of the Registered Notes, for payments on the Registered Notes. In addition, ConocoPhillips&#8217; right to participate in any distribution of assets of any subsidiary upon its liquidation or reorganization or otherwise, and the ability of holders of the Registered Notes to benefit indirectly from that kind of distribution, is subject to the prior claims of creditors of that subsidiary, except to the extent that ConocoPhillips is recognized as a creditor of that subsidiary or, in the case of CPCo, to the extent of the CPCo guarantee of the Registered Notes. All obligations of ConocoPhillips&#8217; subsidiaries other than, in the case of CPCo, its guarantee obligations with respect to the Registered Notes, will have to be satisfied before any of the assets of such subsidiaries would be available for distribution, upon a liquidation or otherwise, to ConocoPhillips. Accordingly, the Registered Notes are structurally subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of ConocoPhillips&#8217; subsidiaries other than CPCo and all liabilities of any of its future subsidiaries. </font>

The Indenture permits us and our subsidiaries to incur additional debt, including secured debt, subject to certain limited covenants. If we incur any secured debt, our assets and the assets of our subsidiaries will be subject to prior claims by our secured creditors. In the event of our bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization or other winding up, assets that secure debt will be available to pay obligations on the Registered Notes only after all debt secured by those assets has been repaid in full. Holders of the Registered Notes will participate in our remaining assets ratably with all of our unsubordinated unsecured creditors, including our trade creditors. If we incur any additional obligations that rank equally with the Registered Notes, including trade payables, the holders of those obligations will be entitled to share ratably with the holders of the Registered Notes and our other unsubordinated unsecured creditors in any proceeds distributed upon our insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, dissolution or other winding up. This may have the effect of reducing the amount of proceeds paid to you. If there are not sufficient assets remaining to pay all these creditors, all or a portion of the Registered Notes then outstanding would remain unpaid. </font>

The limitations on incurring debt secured by liens and sale and leaseback transactions contain certain exceptions. The covenants in the Indenture do not limit the amount of additional unsecured debt we or our subsidiaries may incur, including additional unsubordinated debt under the Indenture or indebtedness under new or existing credit facilities and do not require us to maintain any financial ratios or specific levels of net worth, revenue, income, cash flows or liquidity. In light of the foregoing, holders of the Registered Notes may be effectively subordinated to any new debt we may incur. We may opportunistically raise additional capital, including through additional indebtedness, to fund our capital plan and ongoing operations. Further, the Indenture does not contain provisions that would afford holders of the Registered Notes protection in the event of a sudden and significant decline in our credit quality or a takeover, recapitalization or highly leveraged or similar transaction.

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Actual or anticipated changes or downgrades in our credit ratings, including any announcement that our ratings are under review for a downgrade or have been assigned a negative outlook, would likely increase our borrowing costs and affect our ability to incur new indebtedness or refinance our existing indebtedness, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows and the market value of our common stock and outstanding debt securities, and could affect the market value of the Registered Notes. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">As of December&#160;31, 2021, ConocoPhillips and its subsidiaries had approximately $19.934&#160;billion of outstanding consolidated indebtedness, consisting primarily of amounts outstanding under their unsubordinated unsecured notes. In the future we may increase our borrowings; however, our ability to do so will be subject to limitations imposed on us by our debt agreements. Our ability to make payments on and to refinance our indebtedness will depend on our ability to generate cash in the future from operations, financings or asset sales. Our ability to generate cash is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control. If we are not able to repay or refinance our debt as it becomes due, we may be forced to sell assets or take other disadvantageous actions, including reducing financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes; reducing our cash dividend rate and/or share repurchases; or dedicating an unsustainable level of our cash flow from operations to the payment of principal and interest on our indebtedness. In addition, our ability to withstand competitive pressures and to react to changes in the oil and gas industries could be impaired. If we fail to make required payments or otherwise default on our debt, the lenders who hold such debt also could accelerate amounts due, which could potentially trigger a default or acceleration of any of our other debt. Redemption may adversely affect your return on the Registered Notes. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">If you do not exchange your Restricted Notes for Registered Notes in the exchange offers, you will continue to be subject to the restrictions on transfer of your Restricted Notes described in the legend on your Restricted Notes and we will not be required to offer another opportunity for you to exchange your Restricted Notes for registered notes, except in limited circumstances. The restrictions on transfer of your Restricted Notes arise because we issued the Restricted Notes under exemptions from, or in transactions not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. In general, you may offer or sell the Restricted Notes only if they are registered under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or are offered and sold under an exemption from these requirements. We do not intend to register the Restricted Notes under the Securities Act. We may in the future seek to acquire untendered Restricted Notes in the open market or privately negotiated transactions, through subsequent exchange offers or otherwise. We have no present plans to acquire any Restricted Notes that are not tendered in the exchange offers or to file a registration statement to permit resales of any untendered Restricted Notes. To the extent Restricted Notes are tendered and accepted in the exchange offers, the trading market, if any, for the remaining Restricted Notes would likely be adversely affected. See &#8220;Terms of the Exchange Offers&#8201;&#8212;&#8201;Consequences of Failure to Exchange&#8221; for a discussion of the possible consequences of failing to exchange your Restricted Notes. </font>

Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, we and CPCo agreed, among other things, to use commercially reasonable efforts to (1)&#160;file a registration statement on an appropriate registration form with respect to a registered offer to exchange each series of Restricted Notes for a like aggregate principal amount of Registered Notes, with terms substantially identical in all material respects to such series of Restricted Notes (except that the Registered Notes will not contain terms with respect to transfer restrictions or any increase in annual interest rate) and (2)&#160;cause the registration statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act on or before May&#160;4, 2022. In furtherance of the foregoing, we have filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-262829) with respect to the exchange offers and the Registered Notes. We and CPCo agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to complete the exchange offer for each series of notes within 60&#160;days after the registration statement is declared effective by the SEC. If the exchange offers may not be completed as soon as practicable after the last date of acceptance for exchange because it would violate any applicable law or applicable interpretations of the staff of the SEC, or if the exchange offers are not consummated for any reason prior to the later of May&#160;4, 2022 and the date on which, under certain circumstances, any holder of Restricted Notes so requests in writing, the Company and CPCo will be required to use commercially reasonable efforts to file a shelf registration statement under the Securities Act which would cover resales of the Restricted Notes. </font>

Each of the exchange offers will remain open for no fewer than 20 business days (or longer if required by applicable law) after the date we electronically deliver notice of such exchange offer to the holders of the applicable Restricted Notes. For each Restricted Note surrendered to us pursuant to an exchange offer, the holder of the Restricted Note will receive a Registered Note having a principal amount equal to that of the surrendered Restricted Note. Interest on each Registered Note will accrue from the last interest payment date on the Restricted Notes surrendered in exchange therefor, which was April 1, 2022, in the case of the Restricted 2027 Notes and the Restricted 2047 Notes and February&#160;15, 2022, in the case of the Restricted 2028 Notes, the Restricted 2031 Notes and the Restricted 2048 Notes. </font>

Any financial institution that is a participant in DTC&#8217;s systems and is tendering Restricted Notes must make book-entry delivery of the Restricted Notes by causing DTC to transfer those Restricted Notes into the exchange agent&#8217;s account at DTC in accordance with DTC&#8217;s procedures for transfer, including its ATOP procedures. The participant should transmit its acceptance to DTC prior to 5:00&#160;p.m., New York City time, on the expiration date. DTC will verify this acceptance, execute a book-entry transfer of the tendered Restricted Notes into the exchange agent&#8217;s account at DTC and then send to the exchange agent confirmation of this book-entry transfer, which confirmation must be received prior to 5:00&#160;p.m., New York City time, on the expiration date. The confirmation of this book-entry transfer will include an agent&#8217;s message confirming that DTC has received an express acknowledgment from the participant that the participant has received and agrees to be bound by the letter of transmittal and that we may enforce the letter of transmittal against the participant. Delivery of Registered Notes issued in the exchange offers may be effected through book-entry transfer at DTC. However, the letter of transmittal (or an agent&#8217;s message in lieu thereof), with any required signature guarantees and any other required documents, must be transmitted to, and received by, the exchange agent at the address listed below under &#8220;Exchange Agent&#8221; &#8203;(or its account at DTC with respect to an agent&#8217;s message) prior to 5:00&#160;p.m., New York City time, on the expiration date. </font>

Any such notice of withdrawal must also be signed by the person having tendered the Restricted Notes to be withdrawn in the same manner as the original signature on the letter of transmittal by which these Restricted Notes were tendered, including any required signature guarantees, or be accompanied by documents of transfer sufficient to permit the trustee for the Restricted Notes to register the transfer of these notes into the name of the person having made the original tender and withdrawing the tender and, if applicable because the Restricted Notes have been tendered through the book-entry procedure, specify the name and number of the participant&#8217;s account at DTC to be credited if different than that of the person having tendered the Restricted Notes to be withdrawn. </font>

Based on interpretations of the SEC staff, Registered Notes issued pursuant to the exchange offers may be offered for resale, resold or otherwise transferred by their holders (other than any such holder that is the Company&#8217;s or CPCo&#8217;s &#8220;affiliate&#8221; within the meaning of Rule&#160;405 under the Securities Act) without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery provisions of the Securities Act; so long as the holders acquired the Registered Notes in the ordinary course of the holders&#8217; business and the holders have no arrangement or understanding with respect to the distribution of the Registered Notes to be acquired in the exchange offers. Any holder who tenders in the exchange offers for the purpose of participating in a distribution of the Registered Notes could not rely on the applicable interpretations of the SEC and must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with a secondary resale transaction. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">The laws of some jurisdictions may require that purchasers of securities take physical delivery of those securities in definitive form. Accordingly, the ability to transfer interests in the Registered Notes represented by a global note to those persons may be limited. In addition, because DTC can act only on behalf of its participants, who in turn act on behalf of persons who hold interests through participants, the ability of a person having an interest in notes represented by a global note to pledge or transfer those interests to persons or entities that do not participate in DTC&#8217;s system, or otherwise to take actions in respect of such interest, may be affected by the lack of a physical definitive security in respect of such interest. </font>

Except as provided below, owners of beneficial interests in a global note will not be entitled to have notes represented by that global note registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of certificated notes and will not be considered the owners or holders thereof under the Indenture or under the Registered Notes for any purpose, including with respect to the giving of any direction, instruction or approval to the trustee. Accordingly, each holder owning a beneficial interest in a global note must rely on the procedures of DTC and, if that holder is not a direct or indirect participant, on the procedures of the participant through which that holder owns its interest, to exercise any rights of a holder of Registered Notes under the Indenture or the global note. </font>

Each of the exchange offers will remain open for at least 20 business days from the date such prospectus is mailed and/or electronically delivered. For each Restricted Note surrendered to the Company under the exchange offers, the holders of such Restricted Note will receive a Registered Note of such series of equal principal amount. Interest on each Registered Note will accrue from the last interest payment date on the Restricted Notes surrendered in exchange therefor, which was April&#160;1, 2022, in the case of the Restricted 2027 Notes and the Restricted 2047 Notes and February&#160;15, 2022, in the case of the Restricted 2028 Notes, the Restricted 2031 Notes and the Restricted 2048 Notes.

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">The following is a general discussion of certain material U.S. federal income tax considerations relating to the exchange of Restricted Notes for Registered Notes in the exchange offers. It does not purport to contain a complete analysis of all the potential tax considerations relating to the exchange. This discussion is limited to holders of Restricted Notes who hold the Restricted Notes as &#8220;capital assets&#8221; within the meaning of Section&#160;1221 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the &#8220;</font><font style="font-style:italic;letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Code</font><font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">&#8221;) (generally, property held for investment). This discussion is based upon the Code, the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, judicial authorities and published positions of the Internal Revenue Service (the &#8220;</font><font style="font-style:italic;letter-spacing:0.2pt;">IRS</font><font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">&#8221;), all as currently in effect, and all of which are subject to change or differing interpretations possibly with retroactive effect, and any such change or differing interpretation could affect the accuracy of the statements and conclusions set forth herein. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">This discussion is for general information purposes only and does not address all of the U.S. federal income tax consequences and considerations that may be relevant to a particular holder in light of such holder&#8217;s particular facts and circumstances and does not apply to holders that are subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax laws, such as, for example, banks or other financial institutions; insurance companies, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts or mutual funds; holders liable for the alternative minimum tax; certain former citizens or former long-term residents of the United States; U.S. holders having a &#8220;functional currency&#8221; other than the U.S. dollar; tax-exempt organizations; dealers in securities or currencies; entities or arrangements treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes or other flow-through entities (or investors therein); subchapter S corporations, retirement plans, individual retirement accounts or other tax-deferred accounts; traders in securities that elect to use a mark to market method of accounting; &#8220;controlled foreign corporations&#8221;; &#8220;passive foreign investment companies&#8221;; or holders that hold Restricted Notes as part of a straddle, hedge, constructive sale, or conversion transaction or other integrated or risk reduction transaction. </font>
        </div>
        <div style="text-indent:20pt; margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:12pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">This discussion does not address any tax consequences under U.S. federal tax laws other than those pertaining to income tax, nor does it address any considerations under any state, local or foreign tax laws or under the unearned income Medicare contribution tax pursuant to the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010. This discussion also does not address any withholding considerations under the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act of 2010 (including the Treasury Regulations issued thereunder and intergovernmental agreements entered into pursuant thereto or in connection therewith). No assurance can be given that the IRS would not assert, or that a court would not sustain, a position contrary to any of the tax consequences set forth below. </font>
        </div>
        <div style="text-indent:20pt; margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:12pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">If a partnership or other entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds Restricted Notes, the tax treatment of a person treated as a partner in such partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes generally will depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Such partnerships and partners in such partnerships should consult their tax advisors about the tax consequences of the exchange to them. </font>

        <div style="text-indent:20pt; margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:12pt;font-weight:bold;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:-0.2pt;">This discussion is for general purposes only. All holders are urged to consult with their tax advisors as to the specific tax consequences to them of the exchange of Restricted Notes for Registered Notes in light of their particular facts and circumstances, including the applicability and effect of any U.S. federal, state, local, foreign or other tax laws.</font><font style="font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:0.2pt;"> </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">The exchange of Restricted Notes for Registered Notes in the exchange offers will not constitute a taxable exchange for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, you will not recognize gain or loss upon the exchange of Restricted Notes for Registered Notes, your basis in the Registered Notes will be the same as your basis in the Restricted Notes surrendered in exchange therefor immediately before the exchange, and your holding period in the Registered Notes will include your holding period for the Restricted Notes exchanged. </font>

This prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of Registered Notes received in exchange for Restricted Notes that were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making or other trading activities. The Company and CPCo have agreed that, for a period of up to 180&#160;days after the expiration date of the exchange offers, if requested by one or more such broker-dealers, the Company and CPCo will amend or supplement this prospectus in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of any Registered Notes by any such broker-dealers. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">The Company will not receive any proceeds from any sale of Registered Notes by broker-dealers. Registered Notes received by broker-dealers for their own account pursuant to the exchange offers may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of options on the Registered Notes or a combination of such methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. Any such resale may be made directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealer or the purchasers of any such Registered Notes. Any broker-dealer that resells Registered Notes that were received by it for its own account pursuant to the exchange offers, and any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of such Registered Notes may be deemed to be an &#8220;underwriter&#8221; within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any profit on any such resale of Registered Notes and any commissions or concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act. </font>
          <br >
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">The letter of transmittal states that, by acknowledging that it will deliver and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an &#8220;underwriter&#8221; within the meaning of the Securities Act. </font>

The Company has agreed to pay certain expenses incident to the exchange offers (including the expenses of one counsel for the holders of the Registered Notes) other than commissions or concessions of any brokers or dealers and the Company and CPCo will indemnify the holders of the Registered Notes (including any broker-dealers) against certain liabilities pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, including liabilities under the Securities Act. </font>
