The Company hereby grants to the Participant an option to purchase all or any part of the number of Shares set forth in Appendix A (the “Option Shares”) at the per share exercise price set forth in Appendix A (the “Exercise Price”), pursuant to the provisions of the Plan and this Agreement (the “Option”). The Option is not intended to qualify as an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Code.

2.Vesting and Exercise of Award.

(a)Vesting. Subject to Section 3 and 4, the Award shall vest and become exercisable in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in Appendix A.

(b)Term of Option. The term of the Option shall expire in the following situations. In no event may any portion of the Option be exercised after it has expired.

(i)Except as set forth in subsections (ii) and (iii), the Option shall expire on the seventh anniversary of the Grant Date.

(ii)In the event of the Participant’s Termination of Service for any reason other than by the Company for Cause (including, without limitation, due to death or Disability), the Option shall expire on the earlier of (x) two years after the date of the Participant’s Termination of Service and (y) on the seventh anniversary of the Grant Date.

(iii)In the event of the Participant’s Termination of Service by the Company for Cause, the Option shall expire on the date of such Termination of Service.

The Participant may, subject to the limitations in this Agreement and the Plan, exercise all or any portion of the Option that has become vested, at any time and from time to time prior to the expiration of the Option; provided, however, the Option shall not be exercisable whenever the purchase or delivery of Shares under the Option would be a violation of any law or any governmental regulation. In order to exercise the Option, the Participant must (i) deliver to the Company a written notice specifying the portion of the Option to be exercised in such manner and in accordance with such administrative regulations, procedures and other requirements as may be stipulated from time to time by the Committee and (ii) remit to the Company in full (A) the aggregate Exercise Price applicable to the portion of the Option being exercised and (B) an amount sufficient to satisfy all Tax-Related Items (as defined below) determined by the Company to be due in respect of the exercise the Option (or portion thereof) (clauses (A) and (B), collectively, the “Payment Amount”). For purposes of this Agreement, the date on which the Participant delivers the notice to exercise the Option (or portion thereof) pursuant to this Section 2(c) shall be referred to herein as the “Exercise Date”.

(d)The Participant may satisfy the Payment Amount in respect of the portion of the Option being exercised in the manner determined by the Committee from time to time in its sole discretion, which may include: (i) in cash or by check, bank draft or money order payable to the order of the Company; (ii) by a “net exercise” under which the Company shall reduce the number of Shares otherwise issuable to the Participant upon such exercise by a whole number of Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value as of the Exercise Date equal to the Payment Amount (provided that in order to comply with applicable accounting standards or the Company’s policies in effect from time to time, the Committee may limit the amount of Shares that may be withheld pursuant to this “net exercise” feature); or (iii) any other method permitted by the Committee from time to time.

3.Termination of Service.

(a)Termination Due to Death or Disability. In the event of the Participant’s Termination of Service due to the Participant’s death or Disability, any portion of the Option that is not vested as of the date of such Termination of Service will vest in full and become exercisable as of the date of such Termination of Service.

(b)Retirement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event of the Participant’s Termination of Service for any reason other than due to a Termination of Service for Cause (or the Participant’s voluntary resignation at a time when grounds for a Termination of Service for Cause exist) at a time when the Participant is Retirement Eligible, provided that such Termination of Service occurs following the first anniversary of the Grant Date, any portion of the Option that is not vested as of the date of such Termination of Service will vest in full and become exercisable as of the date of such Termination of Service. For purposes of this Agreement, “Retirement Eligible” means (i) the Participant has attained age 65 or (ii) the Participant has attained age 55 and the Participant’s length of employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries (including, for these purposes, employment with the Company’s predecessor, Murphy Oil Corporation, a Delaware corporation, and any of its Subsidiaries prior to September 1, 2013) is at least 10 years.

In the event of a Change in Control, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may take the actions contemplated by Section 12(c) of the Plan with respect to the Option, including providing for (a) the continuation or assumption of the Option by the Company (if it is the surviving entity) or by the successor or surviving entity (or its parent), in which case the Option will continue to be subject to the terms of this Award Agreement (including this Section 4), or (b) the vesting and exercisability of the Option immediately prior to such Change in Control in the event the buyer or the successor or surviving entity (or its parent) fails to continue or assume the Option. If, in connection with the Change in Control, the Option is assumed or continued pursuant to clause (a) above, then, in the event of the Participant’s Termination of Service (i) due to the Participant’s death or Disability or (ii) by the Company (or, as applicable, the successor or the surviving entity (or its parent)) without Cause, in each case on or within 24 months following such Change in Control, the Option will vest in full and become exercisable as of the date of such Termination of Service.

Except as may be permitted by the Committee, neither the Award nor any rights of the Participant with respect thereto shall be assignable, alienable, saleable or transferable by the Participant other than (a) by will or pursuant to the laws of descent and distribution or (b) by order of any court of competent jurisdiction, including with respect to any domestic relations order or divorce decree. Any attempts to assign, alienate, sell or otherwise transfer the Award (or any of the Participant’s rights with respect thereto) shall be void and the Participant’s rights to the Award shall therefore be forfeited.

7.Responsibility for Taxes.

(a)The Participant acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company, the ultimate liability for all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to the Participant’s participation in the Plan or the grant, vesting or exercise of the Option (or any portion thereof) and legally applicable to the Participant (“Tax-Related Items”) is and remains the Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company. The Participant further acknowledges that the Company (i) makes no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Award, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or exercise of the Award or the subsequent sale of Shares acquired upon exercise of the Award; and (ii) does not commit to and is under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Award to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if the Participant is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, the Participant acknowledges that the Company may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

(b)Upon the vesting, exercise and/or settlement of the Award (or as of the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding date or other date on which the value of the Award otherwise become includible in the Participant’s gross income for tax purposes) (the “Tax Withholding Date”), the Participant shall be required to pay to the Company, and the Company shall have the right to deduct from any compensation payable to the Participant, the amount of any applicable federal, state, local and foreign Tax-Related Items that the Company determines must be withheld with respect to the Award (the “Tax Withholding Obligations”). In this regard, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the Tax Withholding Obligations shall be satisfied by the Company withholding, in accordance with Section 16(e) of the Plan, from the number of Shares otherwise issuable upon the exercise or settlement of the Award, a portion of such Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the amount of the applicable Tax Withholding Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Participant agrees and authorizes the Company, or its respective agents, to satisfy any applicable Tax Withholding Obligations in respect of the Award by any of the following means, as may be determined by the Committee (or its delegate) in its discretion from time to time: (i) withholding from the Participant’s wages or other cash compensation paid to the Participant by the Company; (ii) requiring the Participant to remit the aggregate amount of such Tax Withholding Obligations to the Company in full, in cash or by check, bank draft or money order payable to the order of the Company; (iii) through a procedure whereby the Participant delivers irrevocable instructions to a broker designated by the Committee to sell Shares obtained upon exercise or settlement of the Award and to deliver promptly to the Company an amount of the proceeds of such sale equal to the

3

amount of the Tax-Related Items (“sell-to-cover”); (iv) by a “net settlement” procedure under which the Company reduces the number of Shares issued on exercise or settlement of the Award by the number of Shares with an aggregate fair market value that equals the amount of the Tax Withholding Obligations; or (v) any other method of withholding determined by the Committee and permitted by applicable law.

(c)The Participant agrees to pay to the Company any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company may be required to withhold or account for as a result of the Participant’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means described in section 9(b). The Company may refuse to issue or deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares, if the Participant fails to comply with the Participant’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.
