(b)
All other reports filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act since the end of the fiscal year covered by the Registrant’s Annual Report referred to in (a) above; and

All reports and definitive proxy or information statements filed pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14, or 15(d) of the Exchange Act subsequent to the filing of this Registration Statement and prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered hereby have been sold or which de-registers all securities then remaining unsold shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing such documents, except as to specific sections of such statements as set forth therein. Unless expressly incorporated into this Registration Statement, a report furnished on Form 8-K prior or subsequent to the date hereof shall not be incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement. Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained in any subsequently filed document which also is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement.

Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not Applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
The validity of the securities being registered hereby has been passed upon for Registrant by Bruce A. Metzinger, Vice President and Assistant Secretary.  Mr. Metzinger owns Halliburton Common Stock and options to purchase Halliburton Common Stock.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, or DGCL, provides that a Delaware corporation has the power, under specified circumstances, to indemnify any person who is or was a party or is threated to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding (other than an action by or in right of the corporation), whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another entity, for expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in any such action, suit, or proceeding.

Section 145 of the DGCL also provides that a Delaware corporation has the power, under specified circumstances, to indemnify any person who is or was a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another entity for expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred in such action or suit.

The Tenth Article of the Registrant's restated certificate of incorporation together with Section 36 of its by-laws generally provide for mandatory indemnification of each person who is or was made a party to or involved in any threatened, pending, or completed civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative action, suit, or proceeding because:

(i)   the person is or was an officer or director of the Registrant; or
(ii)  is a person who is or was serving at the request of the Registrant as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, including service relating to employee benefit plans,

to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL as it existed at the time the respective indemnification provisions of the Registrant's restated certificate of incorporation and the by-laws were adopted or as it may be amended.  Section 145 of the DGCL, Section 36 of the Registrant’s by-laws, and the Tenth Article of the Registrant’s restated certificate of incorporation expressly provide that they are not the exclusive methods of indemnification.

In addition, the Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors and executive officers.

Section 36 of the Registrant’s by-laws provides that the Registrant may maintain insurance, at its own expense, to protect itself and any present or former director or officer of the Registrant or any such director or officer serving at the request of the Registrant as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another entity against any expense, liability, or loss reasonably incurred or suffered.  This insurance coverage may be maintained regardless of whether the Registrant would have the power to indemnify the person against the expense, liability, or loss under the DGCL.

Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL provides that a certificate of incorporation may contain a provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director.  However, that provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director:

(i)
for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its  stockholders;
(ii)
for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
(iii)
under Section 174 of the DGCL, relating to liability for unlawful acquisitions or redemptions of, or payment of dividends on, capital stock; or
(iv)
for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

The Fifteenth Article of the Registrant’s restated certificate of incorporation contains this type of provision.
Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.
Not applicable.

Item 9. Undertakings.
A. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes: (1) to file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement: (i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act; (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement - notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective Registration Statement; and (iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement; provided, however, that clauses (1)(i) and (1)(ii) shall not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those clauses is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement; (2) that, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; and (3) to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

B. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

C. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the indemnification provisions summarized in Item 6, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT


Grant Date: <<Grant Date>>

Grantee (“Employee”):                           <<Participant Name>>

Aggregate Number of Shares Subject to Award:                <<Number _Restricted_Shares>>



This RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made as of <<Grant Date>>, between HALLIBURTON COMPANY, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and <<Participant Name>> (“Employee”).

1.
Award of Shares. Pursuant to the Halliburton Company Stock and Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”) the aggregate number of shares subject to the award set forth above of Halliburton Company common stock, par value $2.50 per share (“Stock”), shall be issued as hereinafter provided in Employee’s name subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan. The shares granted pursuant to this Agreement that are subject to Forfeiture Restrictions (as defined below) are referred to as the “Restricted Shares”. The Restricted Shares shall be issued upon acceptance hereof by Employee and upon satisfaction of the conditions of this Agreement.

2.
Plan Incorporated. Employee acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan, and agrees that this award of Restricted Shares shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan, including future amendments thereto. The Plan is incorporated herein by reference as a part of this Agreement. Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms shall have the same meaning ascribed to them under the Plan.

3.
Vesting of Restricted Shares; Forfeiture of Restricted Shares.

(a)
Vesting Schedule. The Restricted Shares shall vest (i.e., Forfeiture Restrictions lapse) in accordance with the vesting details for this grant displayed in the Distribution Schedule in the Employee’s Account at www.NetBenefits.Fidelity.com, provided the Employee has been continuously and actively employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies from the date of this Agreement through the applicable vesting date. The prohibition against transfer and the obligation to forfeit and surrender Restricted Shares to the Company upon termination of employment are herein referred to as “Forfeiture Restrictions”.

(b)
Accelerated Vesting. The Forfeiture Restrictions shall lapse as to all of the Restricted Shares on the earlier of (i) the date of Employee’s Qualifying Termination (as such term is defined in the Plan), or (ii) the date Employee’s employment with the Company is terminated by reason of death or disability (as determined by the Company). In the event Employee’s employment is terminated for any other reason, including retirement, upon the recommendation of applicable management of the Company and/or business unit, the Committee which administers the Plan (the “Committee”) or its delegate, as appropriate, may, in the Committee’s or such delegate’s sole discretion, approve the lapse of Forfeiture Restrictions as to any or all Restricted Shares still subject to such restrictions, such lapse to be effective on the date of such approval or Employee’s termination date, if later.

(c)
Forfeiture of the Restricted Shares. In the event of termination of Employee’s employment with the Company or any Subsidiary or affiliated company for any reason other than as otherwise provided in this Paragraph 3, Employee shall, for no consideration, forfeit all Restricted Shares to the extent they are not fully vested as of Employee’s termination date. Any question as to whether and when there has been a termination of such employment and the cause for such termination, shall be determined by the Committee, or its delegate, as appropriate, and its determination shall be final.

4.
Book Entry Record. The Restricted Shares shall be represented by book entry transaction registered in the name of a nominee of the Company, pursuant to which Employee shall have voting rights and shall be entitled to receive all dividends unless and until the Restricted Shares are forfeited pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the issuance or delivery of any shares of Stock (whether subject to restrictions or unrestricted) may be postponed for such period as may be required to comply with applicable requirements of any national securities exchange or any requirements under any law or regulation applicable to the issuance or delivery of such shares. The Company shall not be obligated to issue or deliver any shares of Stock if the issuance or delivery thereof shall constitute a violation of any provision of any law or of any regulation or any national securities exchange.

5.
Non-Disclosure, Non-Solicit and Non-Compete Covenants. To further align Employee’s interests with the Company’s long-term business interests, including the preservation of the Company’s goodwill and the protection of the Confidential Business Information (as defined below) that Employee has obtained and will, necessarily continue to receive and rely on, Employee and the Company hereby agree to the following:

(a)
Non-Disclosure of Confidential Business Information. Employee agrees that (a) the Company’s Confidential Business Information constitutes valuable, special, and unique assets that the Company uses in its business to obtain a competitive advantage over its competitors; and (b) the protection of such Confidential Business Information against unauthorized disclosure and Employee’s use thereof is of critical importance to the Company in maintaining its competitive position.  Employee also acknowledges and agrees that any unauthorized use or disclosure of such Confidential Business Information or other confidential information would cause irreparable harm to the Company. In consideration of the foregoing, Employee thereby agrees that Employee will not at any time during employment by the Company, and for so long thereafter as the pertinent information or documentation remains confidential, use (either for the benefit of Employee or the benefit of others), publish, disclose, claim ownership of, communicate, divulge or send to others, access, or take, any Confidential Business Information or any confidential information of the Company or its affiliates, including the vendors, consultants, joint ventures, or customers of the Company, except to the extent needed to carry out Employee’s obligations to the Company or as otherwise authorized in writing by the Company. Employee acknowledges and agrees that any unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Business Information or other confidential information would cause irreparable harm to the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement does not prevent Employee from: (i) making a good faith report of possible violations of applicable law to the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other governmental agency or entity; or (ii) making disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of applicable law or receiving any award for information provided under such whistleblower provisions.

(b)
Non-Solicit and Non-Compete. During Employee’s employment with the Company and for one year immediately thereafter, Employee will not, other than on behalf of the Company, directly or indirectly, as a proprietor, partner, employee, agent or otherwise:

(i)
Solicit, directly or indirectly, or cause or permit others to solicit, directly or indirectly, any person (i) formerly employed by the Company during the six (6) month period immediately preceding or following the termination of Employee’s employment (“Former Employee”) or (ii) employed by the Company (“Current Employee”).  The term “solicit” includes, but is not limited to, the following (regardless of whether done directly or indirectly):  (a) requesting that a Former or Current Employee change employment; (b) informing a Former or Current Employee that an opening exists elsewhere; (c) assisting a Former or Current Employee in finding employment elsewhere; (d) inquiring if a Former or Current Employee “knows of anyone who might be interested” in a position elsewhere; (e) inquiring if a Former or Current Employee might have an interest in employment elsewhere; (f) informing others of the name or status of, or other information about, a Former or Current Employee; or (g) any other similar conduct, the intended or actual effect of which is that a Former Employee affiliates with another employer or a Current Employee leaves the employment of the Company.

(ii)
Sell, attempt to sell, or assist in the effort of anyone else who sells or attempts to sell, any products or services which compete with products or services offered by Company to any actual or prospective customer of the Company with whom or with which Employee dealt at any time during the last twelve (12) months of Employee’s employment by the Company or about whom Employee has any Confidential Business Information.

(iii)
Directly or indirectly, solicit, encourage, or induce said actual or prospective customers of the Company to terminate or reduce their business with the Company.

(iv)
Participate in, work for, or provide services, in the Territory in which Employee was employed, to any person or entity that is, or is actively planning to be, a “Competitive Business.” The “Territory in which Employee was employed” shall mean (1) Employee’s geographical area of responsibility, (2) a zone of 150 miles radius from a facility, location or office of the Company in which Employee was employed during the last eighteen (18) months of Employee’s employment at the Company, and (3) all locations from which Employee regularly performed Employee’s job functions or performed significant job functions, during the last eighteen (18) months of Employee’s employment at the Company. The term “Competitive Business” shall mean any business (however organized or conducted) that competes with a business in which the Company is engaged or in which the Company was actively planning to engage, at any time during the last twelve (12) months of Employee’s employment by the Company, provided that Employee was involved with or had access to Confidential Business Information regarding such business. This restriction does not prohibit Employee from working for a person or entity, even if a Competitive Business, in a capacity unrelated to the work that Employee performed for the Company, provided Employee and any new employer first provide the Company with adequate written assurances of the steps taken to ensure the protection, and to prevent the use or disclosure, of Confidential Business Information. Nothing in this Subparagraph 5(b)(iv) shall prohibit Employee and Employee’s affiliates from owning, as passive investors, in the aggregate not more than five percent of equity securities of any Competitive Business.

(v)
Act in any capacity for or with any Competitive Business, or for or with any of their agents, if in such capacity Employee would, because of the nature of his/her role with such Competitive Business and Employee’s knowledge of Confidential Business Information, inevitably use and/or disclose any Confidential Business Information in his/her work for, or on behalf of, the Competitive Business or its agent.

(vi)
Otherwise interfere with, disrupt or attempt to disrupt relations between the Company and any of its employees, contractors, vendors, third party business affiliates, or consultants.

Employee agrees that (a) the covenants contained in this Agreement are necessary for the protection of the Company’s business, goodwill, customer and employee relationships and Confidential Business Information, and (b) the compensation and other consideration received by Employee, including the Restricted Shares, are based on Employee’s agreement to such covenants. Employee represents and warrants that the time, scope of activity and geographic area restricted by this Agreement are reasonable, especially in the view of the worldwide scope of the business operations of the Company, Employee’s position and responsibilities with the Company, and the nature of the Confidential Business Information, that the enforcement of those restrictions contained in this Agreement would not be unduly burdensome to or impose any undue hardship on Employee, and that Employee will be able to earn a reasonable living while abiding by such covenants.

(c)
State Specific Limitations. Employee and the Company hereby further agree that, in spite of anything in the Agreement to the contrary, if and to the extent Employee works for the Company, not including temporary assignments or business travel, in the states mentioned below, the restrictions in Paragraph 5(b) will be revised as set forth below. During any portion of Employee’s employment with the Company when Employee is not assigned to one of the states listed below, this Agreement shall be enforceable in its entirety:

(ii)
North Dakota:  All provisions of Paragraph 5(b) will apply during Employee’s ongoing (not temporary or business travel) assignment in North Dakota.  For the one year period immediately following the end of said Employee’s employment, the only provisions of Paragraph 5(b) that will apply shall be Subparagraph (i) and, to the extent necessary to protect Company’s trade secrets and/or Confidential Business Information, Subparagraphs (v) and (vi).

(d)
Confidential Business Information. As used in this Agreement, the term “Confidential Business Information” means any and all of the Company’s trade secrets, confidential and/or proprietary information, and all other information and data that is not generally known to third persons who could derive economic value from its use or disclosure, including, but not limited to, the Company’s strategies, methods, products, software, designs, drawings, books, records, data, and technical information concerning its products, equipment, services and processes, procurement procedures and pricing techniques; the methods though which the Company identifies, hires, trains and compensates its employees; details regarding the Company’s employees, including their compensation, contact information, and their performance and conduct; methods to locate and qualify contractors, vendors and third party affiliates; the identity of and other information (such as credit and financial data) concerning the Company’s contractors, vendors and third party business affiliates; the individuals, and their contact Information, at contractors, vendors and third party business affiliates with whom the Company has dealt; the amounts and types of goods and/or services purchased in the past from contractors, vendors and third party business affiliates; the amounts paid for such past purchases; the identity of the Company’s customers; the individuals, and their contact information, at customers with whom Employee has dealt; the amounts and types of products and services purchased in the past by such customers; the amount paid for such past purchases, the timing of such past purchases, and the method of payment for such past purchases; the Company’s plans for future products and services; the details of any ongoing or planned negotiations for future products and services; and the Company’s plans for the future, including without limitation plans for its products and services, for geographic and customer markets, and for marketing, promoting, selling, distributing and providing its products and services.

6.
Non-Transferability. The Restricted Shares may not be sold, assigned, pledged, exchanged, hypothecated, encumbered, disposed of, or otherwise transferred, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a “qualified domestic relations order” as defined by the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) or Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or similar order. Upon any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of the Restricted Shares or such rights contrary to the provisions hereof or in the Plan, the Restricted Shares and such rights shall immediately become null and void.

7.
Withholding of Tax. Employee acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company or, if different, the Subsidiary or affiliated company that employs Employee (the “Employer”), the ultimate liability for all income tax, social contributions, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account, hypothetical tax or other tax-related items related to Employee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to Employee or deemed by the Company or the Employer in their discretion to be an appropriate charge to Employee even if legally applicable to the Company or the Employer (“Tax-Related Items”), is and remains Employee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer, if any. Employee further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Restricted Shares, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting, issuance of shares of Stock, the subsequent sale of shares of Stock acquired under the Plan and the receipt of any dividends; and (b) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Restricted Shares to reduce or eliminate Employee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if Employee is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction between the Grant Date and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Employee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

Prior to the relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Employee agrees to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, unless otherwise approved by the Committee, the Company shall satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by either (i) withholding from Employee’s wages or other cash compensation paid to Employee by the Company and/or the Employer, (ii) reacquiring and withholding a number of shares of Stock from the Restricted Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld or (iii) permitting Employee to tender to the Company cash (including check, bank draft or money order delivered to the Company’s Stock Plan Administrator) or, if allowed by the Committee, shares of Stock previously acquired by Employee having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Employee is subject to Section 16 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, pursuant to Rule 16a-2 promulgated thereunder, any Tax-Related Items withholding obligations shall be satisfied by the Company reacquiring and withholding a number of shares of Stock from the Restricted Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld.
Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable statutory withholding rates (as determined by the Company in good faith and in its sole discretion) or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case Employee will receive a refund of any over-withheld amount and will have no entitlement to the share equivalent.
Employee agrees to pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of Employee’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously describ

8.
Status of Stock. Employee agrees that the Restricted Shares will not be sold or otherwise disposed of in any manner which would constitute a violation of any applicable U.S. federal or state securities laws. Employee also agrees (i) that the Company may refuse to register the transfer of the Restricted Shares on the stock transfer records of the Company if such proposed transfer would in the opinion of counsel to the Company constitute a violation of any applicable securities law, and (ii) that the Company may give related instructions to its transfer agent, if any, to stop registration of the transfer of the Restricted Shares.

9.
Nature of Grant. Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to constitute or create a contract of employment, nor shall it constitute or create the right to remain associated with or in the employ of the Company and its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies for any particular period of time. This Agreement shall not interfere in any way with the Company’s right to terminate Employee’s employment at any time. For purposes of this Agreement, Employee shall be considered in the employment of the Company as long as Employee remains an employee of either the Company, any successor corporation or a parent or subsidiary corporation (as defined in Section 424 of the Code) of the Company or any successor corporation. Any question as to whether and when there has been a termination of such employment, and the cause of such termination, shall be determined by the Committee, or its delegate, as appropriate, and its determination shall be final. Furthermore, this Agreement, the Plan, and any other Plan documents are not part of Employee’s employment contract, if any, and do not guarantee either Employee’s right to receive any future grants under such Agreement or the Plan or the inclusion of the value of any grants in the calculation of severance payments, if any, upon termination of employment.

10.
Data Privacy. Employee understands that the Company, its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies and/or the Employer may hold certain personal information about Employee, specifically: Employee’s name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social security or insurance number, passport number or other identification number, salary, nationality, and any shares of Stock or directorships held in the Company, and details of the Restricted Shares or any other entitlement to shares of Stock, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Employee’s favor (“Data”), for the purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan. More information about how the Company collects, processes, protects, and transfers Data, as well as the rights of Employees in relation to their Data, is found in the Employee Privacy Notice available on HalWorld.

Employee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of Employee’s Data as described in this Agreement and any other grant materials by and among, as necessary and applicable, the Company and any of its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies, for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing Employee’s participation in the Plan.

Employee understands that Data will be transferred to the stock brokerage or other financial or administrative services firm designated by the Company (the “Stock Plan Administrator”) which is assisting the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. Employee authorizes the Company, the Company’s Stock Plan Administrator and any other possible recipients that may assist the Company (presently or in the future) with implementing, administering and managing the Plan to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer Data, in electronic or other form, for the sole purpose of implementing, administering and managing Employee’s participation in the Plan. Further, Employee understands that Employee is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If Employee does not consent, or if Employee later seeks to revoke his or her consent, Employee’s service status and career will not be affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing Employee’s consent is that the Company would not be able to grant Employee the Restricted Shares or other equity awards or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, Employee understands that refusing or withdrawing his or her consent may affect Employee’s ability to participate in the Plan.

11.
Insider Trading; Market Abuse Laws. By participating in the Plan, Employee agrees to comply with the Company’s policy on insider trading. Employee further acknowledges that, depending on Employee’s or his or her broker’s country of residence or where the shares of Stock are listed, Employee may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws that may affect Employee’s ability to accept, acquire, sell or otherwise dispose of shares of Stock, rights to shares of Stock (e.g., restricted shares) or rights linked to the value of shares of Stock, during such times Employee is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company as defined by the laws or regulations in Employee’s country. Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders Employee places before he or she possessed inside information. Furthermore, Employee could be prohibited from (i) disclosing the inside information to any third party (other than on a “need to know” basis) and (ii) ”tipping” third parties or causing them otherwise to buy or sell securities. Employee understands that third parties include fellow employees. Any restriction under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company insider trading policy. Employee acknowledges that it is Employee’s responsibility to comply with any applicable restrictions, and that Employee should therefore consult Employee’s personal advisor on this matter.

12.
Electronic Delivery. Employee agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, in lieu of receiving documents in paper format, to accept electronic delivery of any documents that the Company and its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies may deliver in connection with this grant and any other grants offered by the Company, including prospectuses, grant notifications, account statements, annual or quarterly reports, and other communications. Electronic delivery of a document may be made via the Company’s email system or by reference to a location on the Company’s intranet or website or a website of the Company’s agent administering the Plan. By accepting this grant, whether electronically or otherwise, Employee also hereby consents to participate in the Plan through such system, intranet, or website, including but not limited to the use of electronic signatures or click-through electronic acceptance of terms and conditions.

13.
English Language. Employee acknowledges and agrees that it is Employee’s express intent that this Agreement and the Plan and all other documents, notices and legal proceedings entered into, given or instituted pursuant to the Restricted Shares be drawn up in English. To the extent Employee has been provided with a copy of this Agreement, the Plan, or any other documents relating to this Award in a language other than English, the English language documents will prevail in case of any ambiguities or divergences as a result of translation.

14.
Compliance with Law. Employee agrees to take any and all actions, and consent to any and all actions taken by the Company and any of its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies, as may be required to allow the Company and any of its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies to comply with local laws, rules and/or regulations in Employee’s country of employment (and country of residence, if different). Finally, Employee agrees to take any and all actions as may be required to comply with Employee’s personal obligations under local laws, rules and/or regulations in Employee’s country of employment and country of residence, if different).

15.
Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on Employee’s participation in the Plan and on the Restricted Shares, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require Employee to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.

16.
Committee’s Powers. No provision contained in this Agreement shall in any way terminate, modify or alter, or be construed or interpreted as terminating, modifying or altering, any of the powers, rights or authority vested in the Committee or, to the extent delegated, in its delegate, pursuant to the terms of the Plan or resolutions adopted in furtherance of the Plan, including, without limitation, the right to make certain determinations and elections with respect to the Restricted Shares.

17.
Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors to the Company and all persons lawfully claiming under Employee.

18.
Governing Law and Forum. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Texas without regard to principles of conflict of laws, except to the extent that it implicates matters which are the subject of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, which matters shall be governed by the latter law. For purposes of resolving any dispute that may arise directly or indirectly from this Agreement, the parties hereby agree that any such dispute that cannot be resolved by the parties shall be submitted for resolution through the Halliburton Dispute Resolution Program, pursuant to which the last step is final and binding arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that in addition to any other rights or remedies they may have, that either party shall be entitled, if it so elects, to institute a proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction to obtain a preliminary injunction (with each waiving the other’s obligation, if any, to post bond) in order to prevent activities in violation of the Agreement and to maintain the status quo pending resolution of the parties’ dispute in accordance with the Halliburton Dispute Resolution Program.

19.
U.S. Federal Defend Trade Secrets Act Notice. Employee is hereby notified in accordance with the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016 that Employee will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any U.S. federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in confidence to a U.S. federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or is made in a complaint or other document that is filed under seal in a lawsuit or other proceeding. If Employee files a lawsuit for retaliation against the Company for reporting a suspected violation of law, Employee may disclose the Company’s trade secrets to the Employee’s attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding if the Employee files any document containing the trade secret under seal, and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.

20.
Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are severable and if any one or more of the provisions are determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, the Agreement shall be reformed and construed so that it would be enforceable to the maximum extent legally possible, and if it cannot be so reformed and construed, as if such unenforceable provision, or part thereof, had never been contained herein. The Non-Disclosure, Non-Solicit, and Non-Compete in this Agreement shall be separate, independent and concurrently enforceable with other employee agreements that have been signed by Employee. In the event such provisions of an agreement is determined by an adjudicator as not to be enforceable, any other concurrently enforceable provisions may still be enforced.

21.
Waiver. The waiver by the Company with respect to Employee’s (or any other participant’s) compliance with any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by such party of a provision of this Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Agreement to be duly executed by an officer thereunto duly authorized as of the date first above written.

EXHIBIT 99.3

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT


Grant Date: <<Grant Date>>

Grantee (“Employee”):                           <<Participant Name>>

Aggregate Number of Units Subject to Award:                 <<Number_Restricted_Units>>



This  RESTRICTED  STOCK  UNIT  AGREEMENT  (“Agreement”)  is  made  as  of  <<Grant Date>>, between HALLIBURTON COMPANY, a Delaware corporation  (the “Company”), and  <<Participant Name>> (“Employee”).

1.
Award of Units. Pursuant to the Halliburton Company Stock and Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”), Employee is hereby awarded the aggregate number of units subject to award set forth above evidencing the right to receive an equivalent number of shares of Company common stock, par value USD 2.50 per share (“Stock”), subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan. The units granted pursuant to this Agreement that are referred to as the “Restricted Stock Units”.

2.
Plan Incorporated. Employee acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and agrees that this award of Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan, including future amendments thereto. The Plan is incorporated herein by reference as a part of this Agreement. Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms shall have the same meaning ascribed to them under the Plan.

3.
Vesting of Restricted Stock Units; Forfeiture of Restricted Stock Units.

(a)
Vesting Schedule. The Restricted Stock Units shall vest in accordance with the vesting details for this grant displayed in the Distribution Schedule in Employee’s account at www.NetBenefits.Fidelity.com, provided that Employee has been continuously and actively employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies from the date of this Agreement through the applicable vesting date.

(b)
Accelerated Vesting. The Restricted Stock Units shall become fully vested on the earlier of (i) the date of Employee’s Qualifying Termination (as such term is defined in the Plan), or (ii) the date Employee’s employment with the Company is terminated by reason of death or disability (as determined by the Company). In the event Employee’s employment is terminated for any other reason, including retirement (as determined by the Company), upon the recommendation of applicable management of the Company and/or business unit, the Committee which administers the Plan (the “Committee”) or its delegate, as appropriate, may, in the Committee’s or such delegate’s sole discretion, approve the acceleration of the vesting of any or all Restricted Stock Units, such vesting to be effective on the date of such approval or Employee’s Termination Date (as defined below), if later.

(c)
Forfeiture of Restricted Stock Units. In the event of a termination of Employee’s employment with the Company or any Subsidiary or affiliated companies for any reason except as otherwise provided in this Paragraph 3, Employee shall, for no consideration, forfeit all Restricted Stock Units to the extent they are not fully vested as of the Termination Date. For the avoidance of doubt, “Termination Date” for purposes of this award will be deemed to occur as of the date Employee is no longer actively providing services as an employee, unless otherwise determined by the Company in its sole discretion, and no vesting shall continue during any notice period that may be specified under contract or applicable law with respect to such termination, including any “garden leave” or similar period, except as may otherwise be permitted in the Company’s sole discretion.

4.
Settlement of Restricted Stock Units. Upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, payment shall be made as soon as administratively practicable but in no event later than 60 days after the vesting date. The Company, in its sole discretion, may provide for settlement in the form of:

(a)
shares of Stock; or

(b)
a cash payment in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the shares of Stock that correspond to the vested Restricted Stock Units, to the extent that settlement in shares of Stock (i) is prohibited under local law, (ii) would require Employee, the Company or any Subsidiary or affiliated company to obtain the approval of any governmental or regulatory body in Employee’s country of employment (or residence, if different), (iii) would result in adverse tax consequences to Employee, the Company, or any Subsidiary or affiliated company, or (iv) is administratively burdensome.

If the Company settles the Restricted Stock Units in shares of Stock, it may require Employee to sell such shares of Stock immediately or within a specified period following Employee’s termination of employment (in which case Employee hereby agrees that the Company shall have the authority to issue sale instructions in relation to such shares of Stock on Employee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization).

5.
Shareholder Rights. Employee shall have no rights to dividends, dividend equivalents or any other rights of a shareholder with respect to the shares of Stock subject to this award of Restricted Stock Units unless and until such time as the award has been settled by the transfer of shares of Stock to Employee.

6.
Non-Transferability. The Restricted Stock Units may not be sold, assigned, pledged, exchanged, hypothecated, encumbered, disposed of, or otherwise transferred, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a “qualified domestic relations order” as defined by the Code or Title I of the U.S. Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or similar order. Upon any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of the Restricted Stock Units or of such rights contrary to the provisions hereof or in the Plan, the Restricted Stock Units and such rights shall immediately become null and void.

7.
Withholding of Tax. Employee acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company or, if different, the Subsidiary or affiliated company that employs Employee (the “Employer”), the ultimate liability for all income tax, social contributions, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account, hypothetical tax or other tax-related items related to Employee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to Employee or deemed by the Company or the Employer in their discretion to be an appropriate charge to Employee, even if legally applicable to the Company or the Employer (“Tax-Related Items”), is and remains Employee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer, if any. Employee further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting, the subsequent sale of shares of Stock acquired pursuant to such vesting and the receipt of any dividends; and (b) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units to reduce or eliminate Employee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if Employee is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction between the Grant Date and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Employee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

Prior to the relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Employee agrees to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, Employee authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following: (i) withholding from Employee’s wages or other cash compensation paid to Employee by the Company and/or the Employer; (ii) withholding from the shares of Stock to be delivered upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units or other awards granted to Employee having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld; (iii) withholding from the proceeds of the sale of shares of Stock acquired upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on Employee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization without further consent); or (iv) permitting Employee to tender to the Company cash (including check, bank draft or money order delivered to the Company’s Stock Plan Administrator) or, if allowed by the Committee, shares of Stock previously acquired by Employee having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Employee is subject to Section 16 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, pursuant to Rule 16a-2 promulgated thereunder, any tax withholding obligations shall be satisfied by having the Company withhold a number of shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld from the shares of Stock to be delivered upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units.
Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable statutory withholding rates (as determined by the Company in good faith and in its sole discretion) or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case Employee will receive a refund of any over-withheld amount and will have no entitlement to the share equivalent. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding from the shares of Stock to be delivered upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, for tax purposes, Employee is deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Stock subject to the Restricted Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of shares of Stock are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items. Employee will have no further rights with respect to any shares of Stock that are retained by the Company pursuant to this provision.
Employee agrees to pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of Employee’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver shares of Stock or proceeds from the sale of shares of Stock until arrangements satisfactory to the Company have been made in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

8.
Status of Shares of Stock. The Company shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Stock pursuant to any Restricted Stock Units at any time, when the offering of the shares of Stock covered by such Restricted Stock Unit has not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) or such other country, U.S. federal or state laws, rules or regulations as the Company deems applicable and, in the opinion of legal counsel for the Company, there is no exemption from the registration. The Company intends to use reasonable efforts to ensure that no such delay will occur. In the event exemption from registration under the Act is available upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, Employee, if requested by the Company to do so, will execute and deliver to the Company in writing an agreement containing such provisions as the Company may require to assure compliance with applicable securities laws.

Employee agrees that the shares of Stock which Employee may acquire upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units will not be sold or otherwise disposed of in any manner which would constitute a violation of any applicable U.S. federal, state or non-U.S. securities laws. Employee also agrees (i) that the Company may refuse to register the transfer of the shares of Stock acquired under the Restricted Stock Units on the stock transfer records of the Company if such proposed transfer would in the opinion of counsel to the Company constitute a violation of any applicable securities law, and (ii) that the Company may give related instructions to its transfer agent, if any, to stop registration of the transfer of the shares of Stock acquired under the Plan.

9.
Nature of Grant. In accepting the Restricted Stock Units, Employee acknowledges and agrees that:

(a)
the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company, in its sole discretion, at any time (subject to any limitations set forth in the Plan);
(b)
the grant of the Restricted Stock Units is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of restricted stock units, or benefits in lieu of restricted stock units, even if restricted stock units or other awards have been granted in the past;
(c)
all decisions with respect to future awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;
(d)
Employee’s participation in the Plan is voluntary;
(e)
the Restricted Stock Units and Employee’s participation in the Plan shall not create a right to employment or be interpreted as forming an employment contract with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies and shall not interfere with the ability of the Company or the Employer, as applicable, to terminate Employee’s employment relationship (as otherwise may be permitted under local law);
(f)
unless otherwise agreed with the Company, the Restricted Stock Units and any shares of Stock acquired upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, and the income from and value of the same, are not granted as consideration for, or in connection with, any service Employee may provide as a director of any Subsidiary or affiliate of the Company;
(g)
the Restricted Stock Units and any shares of Stock acquired under the Plan and the income and value of the same are not part of normal or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end-of-service payments, holiday pay, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company, the Employer or any Subsidiary or affiliate of the Company;
(h)
the future value of the shares of Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units is unknown, indeterminable, and cannot be predicted with certainty;
(i)
upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, the value of such shares of Stock may increase or decrease in value;
(j)
no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the Restricted Stock Units resulting from termination of Employee’s employment (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws or later found invalid) and, in consideration of the Restricted Stock Units, Employee agrees not to institute any claim against the Company or the Employer;
(k)
the Restricted Stock Units and the benefits evidenced by this Agreement do not create any entitlement not otherwise specifically provided for in the Plan or provided by the Company in its discretion, to have the Restricted Stock Units or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company, nor to be exchanged, cashed out or substituted for, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the shares of Stock; and
(l)
neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between Employee’s local currency and the U.S. dollar that may affect the value of the Restricted Stock Units or any amounts due to Employee pursuant to the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units or the subsequent sale of any shares of Stock acquired upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units.
10.
Data Privacy. Employee understands that the Company, its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies and/or the Employer may hold certain personal information about Employee, specifically: Employee’s name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social security or insurance number, passport number or other identification number, salary, nationality, and any shares of Stock or directorships held in the Company, and details of the Restricted Stock Units or any other entitlement to shares of Stock, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Employee’s favor (“Data”), for the purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan.  More information about how the Company collects, processes, protects, and transfers Data, as well as the rights of Employees in relation to their Data, is found in the Employee Privacy Notice available on HalWorld.

Employee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of Employee’s Data as described in this Agreement and any other grant materials by and among, as necessary and applicable, the Company and any of its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies, for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing Employee’s participation in the Plan.
Employee understands that Data will be transferred to the stock brokerage or other financial or administrative services firm designated by the Company (the “Stock Plan Administrator”) which is assisting the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. Employee authorizes the Company, the Company’s Stock Plan Administrator and any other possible recipients that may assist the Company (presently or in the future) with implementing, administering and managing the Plan to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer Data, in electronic or other form, for the sole purpose of implementing, administering and managing Employee’s participation in the Plan. Further, Employee understands that Employee is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If Employee does not consent, or if Employee later seeks to revoke his or her consent, Employee’s service status and career will not be affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing Employee’s consent is that the Company would not be able to grant Employee the Restricted Stock Units or other equity awards or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, Employee understands that refusing or withdrawing his or her consent may affect Employee’s ability to participate in the Plan.

11.
Insider Trading; Market Abuse Laws. By participating in the Plan, Employee agrees to comply with the Company’s policy on insider trading. Employee further acknowledges that, depending on Employee’s or his or her broker’s country of residence or where the shares of Stock are listed, Employee may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws that may affect Employee’s ability to accept, acquire, sell or otherwise dispose of shares of Stock, rights to shares of Stock (e.g., restricted stock units) or rights linked to the value of shares of Stock, during such times Employee is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company as defined by the laws or regulations in Employee’s country. Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders Employee places before he or she possessed inside information. Furthermore, Employee could be prohibited from (i) disclosing the inside information to any third party (other than on a “need to know” basis) and (ii) ”tipping” third parties or causing them otherwise to buy or sell securities. Employee understands that third parties include fellow employees. Any restriction under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company insider trading policy. Employee acknowledges that it is Employee’s responsibility to comply with any applicable restrictions, and that Employee should therefore consult Employee’s personal advisor on this matter.

12.
Electronic Delivery. Employee agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, in lieu of receiving documents in paper format, to accept electronic delivery of any documents that the Company and its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies may deliver in connection with this grant and any other grants offered by the Company, including prospectuses, grant notifications, account statements, annual or quarterly reports, and other communications. Electronic delivery of a document may be made via the Company’s email system or by reference to a location on the Company’s intranet or website or a website of the Company’s agent administering the Plan. By accepting this grant, whether electronically or otherwise, Employee also hereby consents to participate in the Plan through such system, intranet, or website, including but not limited to the use of electronic signatures or click-through electronic acceptance of terms and conditions.

13.
English Language. Employee acknowledges and agrees that it is Employee’s express intent that this Agreement and the Plan and all other documents, notices and legal proceedings entered into, given or instituted pursuant to the Restricted Stock Units be drawn up in English. To the extent Employee has been provided with a copy of this Agreement, the Plan, or any other documents relating to this Award in a language other than English, the English language documents will prevail in case of any ambiguities or divergences as a result of translation.

14.
Addendum. Notwithstanding any provisions in this Agreement, the Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to any special terms and conditions set forth in the Country-Specific Addendum to this Agreement (the “Addendum”). Moreover, if Employee transfers to one of the countries included in such Addendum, the special terms and conditions for such country will apply to Employee, to the extent the Company determines that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable to comply with local law or to facilitate the administration of the Plan (or the Company may establish alternative terms and conditions as may be necessary or advisable to accommodate Employee’s transfer). The Addendum constitutes part of this Agreement.

15.
Not a Public Offering. The award of the Restricted Stock Units is not intended to be a public offering of securities in Employee’s country of employment (or country of residence, if different). The Company has not submitted any registration statement, prospectus or other filings with the local securities authorities (unless otherwise required under local law), and the award of the Restricted Stock Units is not subject to the supervision of the local securities authorities. No employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies is permitted to advise Employee on whether he/she should participate in the Plan. Acquiring shares of Stock involves a degree of risk. Before deciding to participate in the Plan, Employee should carefully consider all risk factors relevant to the acquisition of shares of Stock under the Plan and carefully review all of the materials related to the Restricted Stock Units and the Plan. In addition, Employee should consult with his/her personal advisor for professional investment advice.

16.
Repatriation; Compliance with Law. Employee agrees to repatriate all payments attributable to the shares of Stock and/or cash acquired under the Plan in accordance with applicable foreign exchange rules and regulations in Employee’s country of employment (and country of residence, if different). In addition, Employee agrees to take any and all actions, and consent to any and all actions taken by the Company and any of its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies, as may be required to allow the Company and any of its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies to comply with local laws, rules and/or regulations in Employee’s country of employment (and country of residence, if different). Finally, Employee agrees to take any and all actions as may be required to comply with Employee’s personal obligations under local laws, rules and/or regulations in Employee’s country of employment and country of residence, if different).

17.
Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on Employee’s participation in the Plan, on the Restricted Stock Units, and on any shares of Stock acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require Employee to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.

18.
Committee’s Powers. No provision contained in this Agreement shall in any way terminate, modify or alter, or be construed or interpreted as terminating, modifying or altering any of the powers, rights or authority vested in the Committee or, to the extent delegated, in its delegate, pursuant to the terms of the Plan or resolutions adopted in furtherance of the Plan, including, without limitation, the right to make certain determinations and elections with respect to the Restricted Stock Units.

19.
Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors to the Company and all persons lawfully claiming under Employee.

20.
Governing Law and Forum. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Texas without regard to principles of conflict of laws, except to the extent that it implicates matters which are the subject of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, which matters shall be governed by the latter law. For purposes of resolving any dispute that may arise directly or indirectly from this Agreement, the parties hereby agree that any such dispute that cannot be resolved by the parties shall be submitted for resolution through the Halliburton Dispute Resolution Program, pursuant to which the last step is final and binding arbitration.

21.
Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are severable and if any one or more of the provisions are determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, the Agreement shall be reformed and construed so that it would be enforceable to the maximum extent legally possible, and if it cannot be so reformed and construed, as if such unenforceable provision, or part thereof, had never been contained herein.

22.
Waiver. The waiver by the Company with respect to Employee’s (or any other participant’s) compliance with any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by such party of a provision of this Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF,  the  Company  has  caused  this  Agreement  to  be  duly  executed  by  an  officer thereunto duly authorized as of the date first above written.

EXHIBIT 99.4

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT


Grant Date: <<Grant Date>>

Grantee (“Employee”):                           <<Participant Name>>

Aggregate Number of Units Subject to Award:                 <<Number_Restricted_Units>>



This  RESTRICTED  STOCK  UNIT  AGREEMENT  (“Agreement”)  is  made  as  of  <<Grant Date>>, between HALLIBURTON COMPANY, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and <<Participant Name>> (“Employee”).

1.
Award of Units. Pursuant to the Halliburton Company Stock and Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”), Employee is hereby awarded the aggregate number of units subject to award set forth above evidencing the right to receive an equivalent number of shares of Company common stock, par value USD 2.50 per share (“Stock”), subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan. The units granted pursuant to this Agreement that are referred to as the “Restricted Stock Units”.

2.
Plan Incorporated. Employee acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and agrees that this award of Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan, including future amendments thereto. The Plan is incorporated herein by reference as a part of this Agreement. Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms shall have the same meaning ascribed to them under the Plan.

3.
Vesting of Restricted Stock Units; Forfeiture of Restricted Stock Units.

(a)
Vesting Schedule. The Restricted Stock Units shall vest in accordance with the vesting details for this grant displayed in the Distribution Schedule in Employee’s account at www.NetBenefits.Fidelity.com, provided that Employee has been continuously and actively employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies from the date of this Agreement through the applicable vesting date.

(b)
Accelerated Vesting. The Restricted Stock Units shall become fully vested on the earlier of (i) the date of Employee’s Qualifying Termination (as such term is defined in the Plan), or (ii) the date Employee’s employment with the Company is terminated by reason of death or disability (as determined by the Company). In the event Employee’s employment is terminated for any other reason, including retirement (as determined by the Company), upon the recommendation of applicable management of the Company and/or business unit, the Committee which administers the Plan (the “Committee”) or its delegate, as appropriate, may, in the Committee’s or such delegate’s sole discretion, approve the acceleration of the vesting of any or all Restricted Stock Units, such vesting to be effective on the date of such approval or Employee’s Termination Date (as defined below), if later.

(c)
Forfeiture of Restricted Stock Units. In the event of a termination of Employee’s employment with the Company or any Subsidiary or affiliated companies for any reason except as otherwise provided in this Paragraph 3, Employee shall, for no consideration, forfeit all Restricted Stock Units to the extent they are not fully vested as of the Termination Date. For the avoidance of doubt, “Termination Date” for purposes of this award will be deemed to occur as of the date Employee is no longer actively providing services as an employee, unless otherwise determined by the Company in its sole discretion, and no vesting shall continue during any notice period that may be specified under contract or applicable law with respect to such termination, including any “garden leave” or similar period, except as may otherwise be permitted in the Company’s sole discretion.

4.
Settlement of Restricted Stock Units. Upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, payment shall be made as soon as administratively practicable but in no event later than 60 days after the vesting date. The Company, in its sole discretion, may provide for settlement in the form of:

(a)
shares of Stock; or

(b)
a cash payment in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the shares of Stock that correspond to the vested Restricted Stock Units, to the extent that settlement in shares of Stock (i) is prohibited under local law, (ii) would require Employee, the Company or any Subsidiary or affiliated company to obtain the approval of any governmental or regulatory body in Employee’s country of employment (or residence, if different), (iii) would result in adverse tax consequences to Employee, the Company, or any Subsidiary or affiliated company, or (iv) is administratively burdensome.

If the Company settles the Restricted Stock Units in shares of Stock, it may require Employee to sell such shares of Stock immediately or within a specified period following Employee’s termination of employment (in which case Employee hereby agrees that the Company shall have the authority to issue sale instructions in relation to such shares of Stock on Employee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization).

5.
Non-Disclosure, Non-Solicit and Non-Compete Covenants. To further align Employee’s interests with the Company’s long-term business interests, including the preservation of the Company’s goodwill and the protection of the Confidential Business Information (as defined below) that Employee has obtained and will, necessarily continue to receive and rely on, Employee and the Company hereby agree to the following:

(a)
Non-Disclosure of Confidential Business Information. Employee agrees that (a) the Company’s Confidential Business Information constitutes valuable, special, and unique assets that the Company uses in its business to obtain a competitive advantage over its competitors; and (b) the protection of such Confidential Business Information against unauthorized disclosure and Employee’s use thereof is of critical importance to the Company in maintaining its competitive position.  Employee also acknowledges and agrees that any unauthorized use or disclosure of such Confidential Business Information or other confidential information would cause irreparable harm to the Company. In consideration of the foregoing, Employee thereby agrees that Employee will not at any time during employment by the Company, and for so long thereafter as the pertinent information or documentation remains confidential, use (either for the benefit of Employee or the benefit of others), publish, disclose, claim ownership of, communicate, divulge or send to others, access, or take, any Confidential Business Information or any confidential information of the Company or its affiliates, including  the vendors, consultants, joint ventures, or customers of the Company, except to the extent needed to carry out Employee’s obligations to the Company or as otherwise authorized in writing by the Company. Employee acknowledges and agrees that any unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Business Information or other confidential information would cause irreparable harm to the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement does not prevent Employee from: (i) making a good faith report of possible violations of applicable law to the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other governmental agency or entity; or (ii) making disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of applicable law or receiving any award for information provided under such whistleblower provisions.

(b)
Non-Solicit and Non-Compete. During Employee’s employment with the Company and for one year immediately thereafter, Employee will not, other than on behalf of the Company, directly or indirectly, as a proprietor, partner, employee, agent or otherwise:

(i)
Solicit, directly or indirectly, or cause or permit others to solicit, directly or indirectly, any person (i) formerly employed by the Company during the six (6) month period immediately preceding or following the termination of Employee’s employment (“Former Employee”) or (ii) employed by the Company (“Current Employee”).  The term “solicit” includes, but is not limited to, the following (regardless of whether done directly or indirectly):  (a) requesting that a Former or Current Employee change employment; (b) informing a Former or Current Employee that an opening exists elsewhere; (c) assisting a Former or Current Employee in finding employment elsewhere; (d) inquiring if a Former or Current Employee “knows of anyone who might be interested” in a position elsewhere; (e) inquiring if a Former or Current Employee might have an interest in employment elsewhere; (f) informing others of the name or status of, or other information about, a Former or Current Employee; or (g) any other similar conduct, the intended or actual effect of which is that a Former Employee affiliates with another employer or a Current Employee leaves the employment of the Company.

(ii)
Sell, attempt to sell, or assist in the effort of anyone else who sells or attempts to sell, any products or services which compete with products or services offered by Company to any actual or prospective customer of the Company with whom or with which Employee dealt at any time during the last twelve (12) months of Employee’s employment by the Company or about whom Employee has any Confidential Business Information.

(iii)
Directly or indirectly, solicit, encourage, or induce said actual or prospective customers of the Company to terminate or reduce their business with the Company.

(iv)
Participate in, work for, or provide services, in the Territory in which Employee was employed, to any person or entity that is, or is actively planning to be, a “Competitive Business.” The “Territory in which Employee was employed” shall mean (1) Employee’s geographical area of responsibility, (2) a zone of 150 miles radius from a facility, location or office of the Company in which Employee was employed during the last eighteen (18) months of Employee’s employment at the Company, and (3) all locations from which Employee regularly performed Employee’s job functions or performed significant job functions, during the last eighteen (18) months of Employee’s employment at the Company. The term “Competitive Business” shall mean any business (however organized or conducted) that competes with a business in which the Company is engaged or in which the Company was actively planning to engage, at any time during the last twelve (12) months of Employee’s employment by the Company, provided that Employee was involved with or had access to Confidential Business Information regarding such business. This restriction does not prohibit Employee from working for a person or entity, even if a Competitive Business, in a capacity unrelated to the work that Employee performed for the Company, provided Employee and any new employer first provide the Company with adequate written assurances of the steps taken to ensure the protection, and to prevent the use or disclosure, of Confidential Business Information. Nothing in this Subparagraph 5(b)(iv) shall prohibit Employee and Employee’s affiliates from owning, as passive investors, in the aggregate not more than five percent of equity securities of any Competitive Business.

(v)
Act in any capacity for or with any Competitive Business, or for or with any of their agents, if in such capacity Employee would, because of the nature of his/her role with such Competitive Business and Employee’s knowledge of Confidential Business Information, inevitably use and/or disclose any Confidential Business Information in his/her work for, or on behalf of, the Competitive Business or its agent.

(vi)
Otherwise interfere with, disrupt or attempt to disrupt relations between the Company and any of its employees, contractors, vendors, third party business affiliates, or consultants.

Employee agrees that (a) the covenants contained in this Agreement are necessary for the protection of the Company’s business, goodwill, customer and employee relationships and Confidential Business Information, and (b) the compensation and other consideration received by Employee, including the Restricted Stock Units, are based on Employee’s agreement to such covenants. Employee represents and warrants that the time, scope of activity and geographic area restricted by this Agreement are reasonable, especially in the view of the worldwide scope of the business operations of the Company, Employee’s position and responsibilities with the Company, and the nature of the Confidential Business Information, that the enforcement of those restrictions contained in this Agreement would not be unduly burdensome to or impose any undue hardship on Employee, and that Employee will be able to earn a reasonable living while abiding by such covenants.

(c)
State Specific Limitations. Employee and the Company hereby further agree that, in spite of anything in the Agreement to the contrary, if and to the extent Employee works for the Company, not including temporary assignments or business travel, in the states mentioned below, the restrictions in Paragraph 5(b) will be revised as set forth below. During any portion of Employee’s employment with the Company when Employee is not assigned to one of the states listed below, this Agreement shall be enforceable in its entirety:

North Dakota:  All provisions of Paragraph 5(b) will apply during Employee’s ongoing (not temporary or business travel) assignment in North Dakota.  For the one year period immediately following the end of said Employee’s employment, the only provisions of Paragraph 5(b) that will apply shall be Subparagraph (i) and, to the extent necessary to protect Company’s trade secrets and/or Confidential Business Information, Subparagraphs (v) and (vi).
(iii)

(d)
Confidential Business Information. As used in this Agreement, the term “Confidential Business Information” means any and all of the Company’s trade secrets, confidential and/or proprietary information, and all other information and data that is not generally known to third persons who could derive economic value from its use or disclosure, including, but not limited to, the Company’s strategies, methods, products, software, designs, drawings, books, records, data, and  technical information concerning its products, equipment, services and processes, procurement procedures and pricing techniques; the methods though which the Company identifies, hires, trains and compensates its employees; details regarding the Company’s employees, including their compensation, contact information, and their performance and conduct; methods to locate and qualify contractors, vendors and third party affiliates; the identity of and other information (such as credit and financial data) concerning the Company’s contractors, vendors and third party business affiliates; the individuals, and their contact Information, at contractors, vendors and third party business affiliates with whom the Company has dealt; the amounts and types of goods and/or services purchased in the past from contractors, vendors and third party business affiliates; the amounts paid for such past purchases; the identity of the Company’s customers; the individuals, and their contact information, at customers with whom Employee has dealt; the amounts and types of products and services purchased in the past by such customers; the amount paid for such past purchases, the timing of such past purchases, and the method of payment for such past purchases; the Company’s plans for future products and services; the details of any ongoing or planned negotiations for future products and services; and the Company’s plans for the future, including without limitation plans for its products and services, for geographic and customer markets, and for marketing, promoting, selling, distributing and providing its products and services.

6.
Shareholder Rights. Employee shall have no rights to dividends, dividend equivalents or any other rights of a shareholder with respect to the shares of Stock subject to this award of Restricted Stock Units unless and until such time as the award has been settled by the transfer of shares of Stock to Employee.

7.
Non-Transferability. The Restricted Stock Units may not be sold, assigned, pledged, exchanged, hypothecated, encumbered, disposed of, or otherwise transferred, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a “qualified domestic relations order” as defined by the Code or Title I of the U.S. Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or similar order. Upon any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of the Restricted Stock Units or of such rights contrary to the provisions hereof or in the Plan, the Restricted Stock Units and such rights shall immediately become null and void.

8.
Withholding of Tax. Employee acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company or, if different, the Subsidiary or affiliated company that employs Employee (the “Employer”), the ultimate liability for all income tax, social contributions, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account, hypothetical tax or other tax-related items related to Employee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to Employee or deemed by the Company or the Employer in their discretion to be an appropriate charge to Employee even if legally applicable to the Company or the Employer (“Tax-Related Items”), is and remains Employee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer, if any. Employee further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting, the subsequent sale of shares of Stock acquired pursuant to such vesting and the receipt of any dividends; and (b) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units to reduce or eliminate Employee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if Employee is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction between the Grant Date and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Employee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

Prior to the relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Employee agrees to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, Employee authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following: (i) withholding from Employee’s wages or other cash compensation paid to Employee by the Company and/or the Employer; (ii) withholding from the shares of Stock to be delivered upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units or other awards granted to Employee having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld; (iii) withholding from the proceeds of the sale of shares of Stock acquired upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on Employee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization without further consent); or (iv) permitting Employee to tender to the Company cash (including check, bank draft or money order delivered to the Company’s Stock Plan Administrator) or, if allowed by the Committee, shares of Stock previously acquired by Employee having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Employee is subject to Section 16 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, pursuant to Rule 16a-2 promulgated thereunder, any tax withholding obligations shall be satisfied by having the Company withhold a number of shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld from the shares of Stock to be delivered upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units.
Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable statutory withholding rates (as determined by the Company in good faith and in its sole discretion) or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case Employee will receive a refund of any over-withheld amount and will have no entitlement to the share equivalent. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding from the shares of Stock to be delivered upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, for tax purposes, Employee is deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Stock subject to the Restricted Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of shares of Stock are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items. Employee will have no further rights with respect to any shares of Stock that are retained by the Company pursuant to this provision.
Employee agrees to pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of Employee’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver shares of Stock or proceeds from the sale of shares of Stock until arrangements satisfactory to the Company have been made in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

9.
Status of Shares of Stock. The Company shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Stock pursuant to any Restricted Stock Units at any time, when the offering of the shares of Stock covered by such Restricted Stock Unit has not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) or such other country, U.S. federal or state laws, rules or regulations as the Company deems applicable and, in the opinion of legal counsel for the Company, there is no exemption from the registration. The Company intends to use reasonable efforts to ensure that no such delay will occur. In the event exemption from registration under the Act is available upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, Employee, if requested by the Company to do so, will execute and deliver to the Company in writing an agreement containing such provisions as the Company may require to assure compliance with applicable securities laws.

Employee agrees that the shares of Stock which Employee may acquire upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units will not be sold or otherwise disposed of in any manner which would constitute a violation of any applicable U.S. federal, state or non-U.S. securities laws. Employee also agrees (i) that the Company may refuse to register the transfer of the shares of Stock acquired under the Restricted Stock Units on the stock transfer records of the Company if such proposed transfer would in the opinion of counsel to the Company constitute a violation of any applicable securities law, and (ii) that the Company may give related instructions to its transfer agent, if any, to stop registration of the transfer of the shares of Stock acquired under the Plan.

10.
Nature of Grant. In accepting the Restricted Stock Units, Employee acknowledges and agrees that:

(a)
the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company, in its sole discretion, at any time (subject to any limitations set forth in the Plan);
(b)
the grant of the Restricted Stock Units is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of restricted stock units, or benefits in lieu of restricted stock units, even if restricted stock units or other awards have been granted in the past;
(c)
all decisions with respect to future awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;
(d)
Employee’s participation in the Plan is voluntary;
(e)
the Restricted Stock Units and Employee’s participation in the Plan shall not create a right to employment or be interpreted as forming an employment contract with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies and shall not interfere with the ability of the Company or the Employer, as applicable, to terminate Employee’s employment relationship (as otherwise may be permitted under local law);
(f)
unless otherwise agreed with the Company, the Restricted Stock Units and any shares of Stock acquired upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, and the income from and value of the same, are not granted as consideration for, or in connection with, any service Employee may provide as a director of any Subsidiary or affiliate of the Company;
(g)
the Restricted Stock Units and any shares of Stock acquired under the Plan and the income and value of the same are not part of normal or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end-of-service payments, holiday pay, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company, the Employer or any Subsidiary or affiliate of the Company;
(h)
the future value of the shares of Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units is unknown, indeterminable, and cannot be predicted with certainty;
(i)
upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, the value of such shares of Stock may increase or decrease in value;
(j)
no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the Restricted Stock Units resulting from termination of Employee’s employment (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws or later found invalid) and, in consideration of the Restricted Stock Units, Employee agrees not to institute any claim against the Company or the Employer;
(k)
the Restricted Stock Units and the benefits evidenced by this Agreement do not create any entitlement not otherwise specifically provided for in the Plan or provided by the Company in its discretion, to have the Restricted Stock Units or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company, nor to be exchanged, cashed out or substituted for, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the shares of Stock; and
(l)
neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between Employee’s local currency and the U.S. dollar that may affect the value of the Restricted Stock Units or any amounts due to Employee pursuant to the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units or the subsequent sale of any shares of Stock acquired upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units.
11.
Data Privacy. Employee understands that the Company, its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies and/or the Employer may hold certain personal information about Employee, specifically: Employee’s name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social security or insurance number, passport number or other identification number, salary, nationality, and any shares of Stock or directorships held in the Company, and details of the Restricted Stock Units or any other entitlement to shares of Stock, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Employee’s favor (“Data”), for the purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan. More information about how the Company collects, processes, protects, and transfers Data, as well as the rights of Employees in relation to their Data, is found in the Employee Privacy Notice available on HalWorld.

Employee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of Employee’s Data as described in this Agreement and any other grant materials by and among, as necessary and applicable, the Company and any of its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies, for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing Employee’s participation in the Plan.

Employee understands that Data will be transferred to the stock brokerage or other financial or administrative services firm designated by the Company (the “Stock Plan Administrator”) which is assisting the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. Employee authorizes the Company, the Company’s Stock Plan Administrator and any other possible recipients that may assist the Company (presently or in the future) with implementing, administering and managing the Plan to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer Data, in electronic or other form, for the sole purpose of implementing, administering and managing Employee’s participation in the Plan. Further, Employee understands that Employee is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If Employee does not consent, or if Employee later seeks to revoke his or her consent, Employee’s service status and career will not be affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing Employee’s consent is that the Company would not be able to grant Employee the Restricted Stock Units or other equity awards or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, Employee understands that refusing or withdrawing his or her consent may affect Employee’s ability to participate in the Plan.

12.
Insider Trading; Market Abuse Laws. By participating in the Plan, Employee agrees to comply with the Company’s policy on insider trading. Employee further acknowledges that, depending on Employee’s or his or her broker’s country of residence or where the shares of Stock are listed, Employee may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws that may affect Employee’s ability to accept, acquire, sell or otherwise dispose of shares of Stock, rights to shares of Stock (e.g., restricted stock units) or rights linked to the value of shares of Stock, during such times Employee is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company as defined by the laws or regulations in Employee’s country. Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders Employee places before he or she possessed inside information. Furthermore, Employee could be prohibited from (i) disclosing the inside information to any third party (other than on a “need to know” basis) and (ii) ”tipping” third parties or causing them otherwise to buy or sell securities. Employee understands that third parties include fellow employees. Any restriction under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company insider trading policy. Employee acknowledges that it is Employee’s responsibility to comply with any applicable restrictions, and that Employee should therefore consult Employee’s personal advisor on this matter.

13.
Electronic Delivery. Employee agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, in lieu of receiving documents in paper format, to accept electronic delivery of any documents that the Company and its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies may deliver in connection with this grant and any other grants offered by the Company, including prospectuses, grant notifications, account statements, annual or quarterly reports, and other communications. Electronic delivery of a document may be made via the Company’s email system or by reference to a location on the Company’s intranet or website or a website of the Company’s agent administering the Plan. By accepting this grant, whether electronically or otherwise, Employee also hereby consents to participate in the Plan through such system, intranet, or website, including but not limited to the use of electronic signatures or click-through electronic acceptance of terms and conditions.

14.
English Language. Employee acknowledges and agrees that it is Employee’s express intent that this Agreement and the Plan and all other documents, notices and legal proceedings entered into, given or instituted pursuant to the Restricted Stock Units be drawn up in English. To the extent Employee has been provided with a copy of this Agreement, the Plan, or any other documents relating to this Award in a language other than English, the English language documents will prevail in case of any ambiguities or divergences as a result of translation.

15.
Addendum. Notwithstanding any provisions in this Agreement, the Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to any special terms and conditions set forth in the Country-Specific Addendum to this Agreement (the “Addendum”). Moreover, if Employee transfers to one of the countries included in such Addendum, the special terms and conditions for such country will apply to Employee, to the extent the Company determines that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable to comply with local law or to facilitate the administration of the Plan (or the Company may establish alternative terms and conditions as may be necessary or advisable to accommodate Employee’s transfer). The Addendum constitutes part of this Agreement.

16.
Not a Public Offering. The award of the Restricted Stock Units is not intended to be a public offering of securities in Employee’s country of employment (or country of residence, if different). The Company has not submitted any registration statement, prospectus or other filings with the local securities authorities (unless otherwise required under local law), and the award of the Restricted Stock Units is not subject to the supervision of the local securities authorities. No employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliated companies is permitted to advise Employee on whether he/she should participate in the Plan. Acquiring shares of Stock involves a degree of risk. Before deciding to participate in the Plan, Employee should carefully consider all risk factors relevant to the acquisition of shares of Stock under the Plan and carefully review all of the materials related to the Restricted Stock Units and the Plan. In addition, Employee should consult with his/her personal advisor for professional investment advice.

17.
Repatriation; Compliance with Law. Employee agrees to repatriate all payments attributable to the shares of Stock and/or cash acquired under the Plan in accordance with applicable foreign exchange rules and regulations in Employee’s country of employment (and country of residence, if different). In addition, Employee agrees to take any and all actions, and consent to any and all actions taken by the Company and any of its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies, as may be required to allow the Company and any of its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies to comply with local laws, rules and/or regulations in Employee’s country of employment (and country of residence, if different). Finally, Employee agrees to take any and all actions as may be required to comply with Employee’s personal obligations under local laws, rules and/or regulations in Employee’s country of employment and country of residence, if different).

18.
Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on Employee’s participation in the Plan, on the Restricted Stock Units, and on any shares of Stock acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require Employee to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.

19.
Committee’s Powers. No provision contained in this Agreement shall in any way terminate, modify or alter, or be construed or interpreted as terminating, modifying or altering any of the powers, rights or authority vested in the Committee or, to the extent delegated, in its delegate, pursuant to the terms of the Plan or resolutions adopted in furtherance of the Plan, including, without limitation, the right to make certain determinations and elections with respect to the Restricted Stock Units.

20.
Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors to the Company and all persons lawfully claiming under Employee.

21.
Governing Law and Forum. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Texas without regard to principles of conflict of laws, except to the extent that it implicates matters which are the subject of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, which matters shall be governed by the latter law. For purposes of resolving any dispute that may arise directly or indirectly from this Agreement, the parties hereby agree that any such dispute that cannot be resolved by the parties shall be submitted for resolution through the Halliburton Dispute Resolution Program, pursuant to which the last step is final and binding arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that in addition to any other rights or remedies they may have, that either party shall be entitled, if it so elects, to institute a proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction to obtain a preliminary injunction (with each waiving the other’s obligation, if any, to post bond) in order to prevent activities in violation of the Agreement and to maintain the status quo pending resolution of the parties’ dispute in accordance with the Halliburton Dispute Resolution Program.

22.
U.S. Federal Defend Trade Secrets Act Notice. Employee is hereby notified in accordance with the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016 that Employee will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any U.S. federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in confidence to a U.S. federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or is made in a complaint or other document that is filed under seal in a lawsuit or other proceeding. If Employee files a lawsuit for retaliation against the Company for reporting a suspected violation of law, Employee may disclose the Company’s trade secrets to the Employee’s attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding if the Employee files any document containing the trade secret under seal, and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.

23.
Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are severable and if any one or more of the provisions are determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, the Agreement shall be reformed and construed so that it would be enforceable to the maximum extent legally possible, and if it cannot be so reformed and construed, as if such unenforceable provision, or part thereof, had never been contained herein. The Non-Disclosure, Non-Solicit, and Non-Compete in this Agreement shall be separate, independent and concurrently enforceable with other employee agreements that have been signed by Employee. In the event such provisions of an agreement is determined by an adjudicator as not to be enforceable, any other concurrently enforceable provisions may still be enforced.

24.
Waiver. The waiver by the Company with respect to Employee’s (or any other participant’s) compliance with any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by such party of a provision of this Agreement
