The performance goals for Section 162(m) Awards shall consist of one or more business criteria or individual performance criteria and a targeted level or levels of performance with respect to each of such criteria, as specified by the Committee consistent with this Section 8(b).  Performance goals shall be objective and shall otherwise meet the requirements of section 162(m) of the Code and regulations thereunder (including Treasury Regulation &#167;1.162-27 and successor regulations thereto), including the requirement that the level or levels of performance targeted by the Committee result in the achievement of performance goals being &#8220;substantially uncertain&#8221; at the time the Committee actually establishes the performance goal or goals.  The Committee may determine that Section 162(m) Awards shall be granted, exercised, and/or settled upon achievement of any one performance goal or that two or more of the performance goals must be achieved as a condition to grant, exercise, and/or settlement of such Section 162(m) Awards.

One or more of the following business criteria for the Company, on a consolidated basis, and/or for specified Subsidiaries or business or geographical units of the Company (except with respect to the total stockholder return and earnings per share criteria), shall be used by the Committee in establishing performance goals for Section 162(m) Awards:  (1) earnings per share (diluted or basic); (2) revenues; (3) cash flow; (4) cash flow from operations; (5) cash flow return on investment; (6) return on net assets; (7) return on assets; (8) return on investment; (9) return on capital; (10) return on equity; (11) economic value added; (12) operating margin; (13) contribution margin; (14) net income; (15) net income per share; (16) pretax earnings; (17) pretax earnings before interest, depreciation and amortization; (18) pretax operating earnings after interest expense and before incentives, service fees, and extraordinary or special items; (19) total stockholder return; (20) debt reduction or management; (21) market share; (22) stock price; (23) operating income; (24) reserve growth; (25) reserve replacement; (26) production growth; (27) finding/ development costs; (28) lease operating expense; (29) sales; (30) expense reduction or management; (31) stockholder value added; (32) net operating profit; (33) net operating profit after tax; (34) effective equipment utilization; (35) achievement of savings from business improvement projects; (36) capital project deliverables; (37) performance against environmental targets; (38) safety performance and/or incident rate; (39) human resources management targets, including medical cost reductions and time to hire; (40) leverage ratios including debt to equity and debt to total capital; (41) new or expanded market penetration; (42) satisfactory internal or external audits; (43) inventory or reserves growth; and (44) any of the above goals determined on an absolute or relative basis or as compared to the performance of a published or special index deemed applicable by the Committee including, but not limited to, the Standard &amp; Poor&#8217;s 500 Stock Index or a group of comparable companies.  </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-left:0px;padding-bottom:8px;text-align:justify;text-indent:192px;"><font style="padding-bottom:8px;text-align:justify;font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;padding-right:48px;">(B)</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;text-decoration:underline;">Individual Performance Criteria</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">.

The amount of such Performance Award pool shall be based upon the achievement of a performance goal or goals based on one or more of the criteria set forth in Section 8(b)(i) hereof during the given performance period, as specified by the Committee in accordance with Section 8(b)(iii) hereof.  The Committee may, in its discretion, adjust the amount of such Performance Award pool to reflect the events or occurrences set forth in Section&#160;8(b)(i).

After the end of each performance period, the Committee shall determine (A)&#160;the amount, if any, of the Performance Award pool, and the maximum amount of the potential Section 162(m) Award payable to each Participant who is designated to participate in the Performance Award pool, or (B)&#160;the amount of the potential Section 162(m) Award otherwise payable to each Participant.  Settlement of such Section 162(m) Awards shall be in cash, Stock, other Awards or other property, in the discretion of the Committee.  The Committee may, in its discretion, reduce the amount of a settlement otherwise to be made in connection with such Section 162(m) Awards, and/or adjust the amount of a settlement otherwise to be made in connection with such Section 162(m) Awards to reflect the events or occurrences set forth in Section&#160;8(b)(i), but may not exercise discretion to increase any such amount payable to a Covered Employee in respect of a Section 162(m) Award.  For purposes of clarity, in the event that an adjustment made solely pursuant to Section 8(b)(i) above results in an increase in a payment under a Section 162(m) Award, the Committee will not be deemed to have made an impermissible increase to the amount payable pursuant to that Award.  The Committee shall specify the circumstances in which such Performance Awards shall be paid or forfeited in the event of termination of employment by the Participant prior to the end of a performance period or settlement of Performance Awards.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-left:0px;padding-bottom:8px;text-align:justify;text-indent:96px;"><font style="padding-bottom:8px;text-align:justify;font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;padding-right:48px;">(c)</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;text-decoration:underline;">Written Determinations</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">.

Accordingly, the terms of Sections 8(b), (c), and (d), including the definitions of Covered Employee and other terms used therein shall, for Section 162(m) Awards, be interpreted in a manner consistent with section 162(m) of the Code and regulations thereunder.  The foregoing notwithstanding, because the Committee cannot determine with certainty whether a given Eligible Person will be a Covered Employee with respect to a fiscal year that has not yet been completed, the term &#8220;Covered Employee&#8221; as used herein shall mean only a Person designated by the Committee, at the time of grant of a Performance Award, who is likely to be a Covered Employee with respect to that fiscal year.  If any provision of this Plan applicable to Section 162(m) Awards does not comply or is inconsistent with the requirements of section 162(m) of the Code or regulations thereunder, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such requirements with respect to such Section 162(m) Awards.  </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-left:0px;padding-bottom:8px;text-align:justify;text-indent:48px;"><font style="padding-bottom:8px;text-align:justify;font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;padding-right:48px;">9.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Subdivision or Consolidation; Recapitalization; Change in Control; Reorganization</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">.  </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-left:0px;padding-bottom:8px;text-align:justify;text-indent:96px;"><font style="padding-bottom:8px;text-align:justify;font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;padding-right:48px;">(a)</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;text-decoration:underline;">Existence of Plans and Awards</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">.
