Board refreshment and governance structure emphasized.

The proxy details a board composed mostly of independent directors with planned succession actions and committee chair rotations in 2025. The Board maintains mandatory retirement at age 75 and a Lead Independent Director role.

Key governance items include written charters, a related persons policy covering transactions over $120,000, and proxy access. Subsequent disclosures will show final voting outcomes following the May 20, 2026 meeting.

Compensation aligns pay with multi-year performance metrics.

The executive pay program ties short-term incentives to NOPAT, asset turns, and non-financial strategic metrics and uses long-term performance units measured by ROCE with a relative TSR modifier. Annual equity awards target market median.

Capital allocation highlights: capex at 6% of revenue and $1.6 billion returned to shareholders in 2025; monitor proxy vote on the amended Stock and Incentive Plan.

Fellow Shareholders:
Thank you for your continued confidence in Halliburton. On behalf of our Board of Directors, management team, and more

In 2025, Halliburton delivered solid results through clear strategy and disciplined execution. We generated $22.2 billion in
total company revenue. We achieved another year of strong free cash flow through cost and capital discipline. We returned
$1.6 billion, or nearly 85% of our free cash flow, to shareholders in dividends and share repurchases, underscoring our
priority to return cash to shareholders.
We see a strong future for our business. We expect oil and gas will remain essential in the global energy mix for decades to
come. The shift from idealism to pragmatism reflects reality and creates opportunity. Our strategy is clear: deliver profitable
international growth, maximize value in North America, increase capital efficiency, deploy digital and automation solutions,
and advance a sustainable energy future.
In all markets, our value propositionto collaborate and engineer solutions to maximize asset value for our customers–
enables us to deliver leading returns and capitalize on future growth opportunities. In international markets, our technology
performs, and our growth engines provide a clear line of sight to outgrow the market. In North America, we will maximize
value by prioritizing returns and by deploying differentiated technologies that solve for our customers’ greatest opportunities.
Your vote is important regardless of how many shares you own. We invite you to attend our Annual Meeting on
May 20, 2026, at our corporate office in Houston, Texas. Whether or not you are able to join us in person, please review

2025 Strategic Priorities
As we began 2025, we identified the following focus areas in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2024 (2024 Form 10-K):
International: Increase international growth in directional
drilling, unconventionals, well intervention, and artificial
lift business.
North America: Maximize value by, among other things,
utilizing our Zeus electric fracturing platform and our
iCruise rotary steerable systems.
Digital: Continue to drive differentiation and efficiencies
through the deployment of digital and automation
technologies, both internally and for our customers.
Capital efficiency: Maintain our capital expenditures at
approximately 6% of revenue while utilizing technology
and targeted process improvements to enhance
utilization of existing capital.
Shareholder returns: Return over 50% of annual free
cash flow(1) to shareholders through dividends and share
repurchases.
Advance a sustainable energy future: Continue to
develop technologies and solutions to help lower our
customers' and our emissions intensity, participate in
carbon capture, utilization, and storage, and geothermal
projects globally, and support Halliburton Labs early-
stage company participants.
(1) Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure which is calculated as “Total cash flows provided by operating activities (operating cash flow)”
less “capital expenditures” plus “proceeds from the sale of property, plant, and equipment.” Management considers free cash flow an
important indicator of the company's liquidity, as it helps  both investors and management evaluate the business’s ability to generate cash.
See Appendix D for reconciliation to U.S. GAAP.
2025 Performance Overview (page 50)
Our success throughout 2025 was a direct result of the hard
work and dedication of our employees with relentless focus
on safety, operational execution, customer collaboration,
and service quality performance. In 2025, Halliburton
delivered solid results through clear strategy and disciplined
execution. We generated $22.2 billion in total company
revenue. We achieved another year of strong free cash flow
through cost and capital discipline. Here are the highlights
for 2025:
Financial: Our total revenue decreased 3% in 2025 as
compared to 2024. Our international revenue decreased
2% and our North America revenue decreased 6% in
2025 compared to 2024. Overall, our Completion and
Production and Drilling and Evaluation operating
segments finished the year with 17% and 15% operating
margins, respectively. We generated $2.9 billion of cash
flows from operations and retired $382 million of our
3.8% notes due November 2025.
Capital efficiency: We developed technologies and
made strategic choices that kept our capital expenditures
at approximately 6% of revenue, which matched our
target.
Shareholder returns: We returned $1.6 billion of capital
to shareholders through dividends and share
repurchases, which is consistent with our capital returns
framework.
Sustainability: We continued progress toward a
sustainable energy future by expanding Halliburton Labs'
38 participant and alumni organizations, and achieving
the milestone of 50% of our North American fracturing
fleet transitioned to Zeus electric pumps.

any of our subsidiaries were or will be a participant, (ii) the aggregate amount involved exceeds $120,000 in any calendar
year, and (iii) any related person had, has, or will have a direct or indirect material interest.
Under the policy, we generally only enter into or ratify related persons transactions when the Audit Committee determines
such transactions are in our best interests and the best interests of our shareholders. In determining whether to approve or
ratify a related persons transaction, the Audit Committee will consider the following factors and other factors it deems
appropriate:
whether the related persons transaction is on terms comparable to terms generally available with an unaffiliated third party
under the same or similar circumstances;
the benefits of the transaction to the Company;
HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement

the extent of the related person’s interest in the transaction; and
whether there are alternative sources for the subject matter of the transaction.
The Audit Committee reviewed the employment relationship of Phillip Spoelker, who is the brother of Ms. Stephanie
Holzhauser, the Company's Chief Accounting Officer. Mr. Spoelker is employed by Halliburton in a non-executive officer
position and received total compensation of approximately $168,000 from January 1, 2025 through December 31, 2025. Mr.
Spoelker’s compensation was established by Halliburton in accordance with its compensation practices applicable to
employees with comparable qualifications and responsibilities and holding similar positions and is commensurate with that of
his peers in Halliburton’s compensation framework.
Insider Trading Policies
The Company maintains polices titled "Use of Material Nonpublic Information, Securities Trading Windows, and Hedging
and Pledging of Company Securities" and "Securities Trading of Company Securities by the Company" governing the
purchase, sale, and other dispositions of Halliburton securities by Directors, officers, employees, or the Company itself that
are reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules, and regulations of the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC), and the New York Stock Exchange listing standards applicable to the Company. Copies of
these policies were filed as Exhibit 19.1 and 19.2 to the 2024 Form 10-K.
The Board of Directors and Standing
Committees of Directors
The Board has the following standing Committees: Audit; Compensation; Health, Safety and Environment; and Nominating
and Corporate Governance. Each standing Committee is comprised of Directors who, in the business judgment of the
Board, are independent, after considering all relevant facts and circumstances, including the independence standards set
forth in our Corporate Governance Guidelines.
Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that the independence of each Director will be determined by the Board in
the exercise of its business judgment and considering the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, and the New York
Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange Texas (collectively, the NYSE).
In connection with its independence determination, the Board considered that we utilize health insurance services of Blue
Cross Blue Shield, a subsidiary of Health Care Service Corporation, of which Mr. Smith is the Chairman, President and Chief
Executive Officer, in the ordinary course of business. The Board concluded that the relationship was on market terms, not
material, and did not affect the independence of Mr. Smith.
The Board also considered that Mr. Leach serves on the Board of ConocoPhillips and previously served as an advisor to the
CEO of ConocoPhillips. The Board concluded that Mr. Leach's participation on the ConocoPhillips board does not affect the
independence of Mr. Leach.
Board Leadership
Our Board believes that it is important to maintain flexibility to determine the appropriate leadership of the Board and
whether the roles of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer should be combined or separate. Our Corporate Governance
Guidelines provide that the Board consider annually whether it is appropriate for the same individual to fill both of those
roles. When making that determination, the Board considers issues such as industry and financial expertise, in-depth
knowledge of Halliburton and its business, and succession planning. In 2025, the Board evaluated and decided that a
combined leadership role would continue to best serve the Company and its shareholders. The Board believes that Jeffrey
A. Miller, our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, with his industry expertise, financial expertise, and in-depth
knowledge of Halliburton and its business, is the correct person to fill both roles. The Board also believes that Mr. Miller is
best suited to lead the Board’s discussion and evaluation of the Company’s business, financial, and health, safety,
environment, and sustainability strategy and performance. With the exception of Mr. Miller and Mr. Slocum, the Board is
composed of independent Directors.

Board and Committee Oversight
Governance Oversight
The Halliburton Board of Directors Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee conducts general oversight for
Halliburton's corporate strategy and financial, operational, market, political, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, sustainability,
and other risks inherent in Halliburton's business. However, each Board Committee is responsible for different aspects of
oversight (as outlined in each Committee’s charter).
By regularly engaging with shareholders and other outside experts, the Board can more effectively prioritize relevant key
matters in the Company’s overall corporate strategy and enterprise risk profile. At least twice annually, the Board engages
with shareholders to hear their perspectives and feedback. The Board also prioritizes these matters at each meeting through
set agenda items. Shareholders have endorsed this oversight structure and other governance enhancements.

The Board believes that it has a strong governance structure in place to ensure independent oversight on behalf of all
shareholders. All standing Committees of the Board are comprised solely of independent Directors. Below is a discussion of
some of these areas of oversight.
Oversight of Strategy
The Board and the Board Committees oversee fundamental elements of Halliburton's strategic plan, and company
management is charged with executing the business strategy. Throughout the year, the Board provides guidance to the
Halliburton management team in connection with this oversight function. Various elements of strategy are discussed at every
Board meeting, as well as many meetings of the Board's Committees, at which updates on progress and execution are
delivered to the Board. The Board also periodically requests additional reports or reading materials to inform their oversight
on key and emerging aspects of our strategy. In addition, the Board dedicates at least one multi-hour session with senior
leadership each year to focus on strategic planning and related performance objectives. 
Further, the Board participates in an international trip every two years and a local trip in the intervening years to review the
specific strategy and risks of those particular locations. In February 2025, the Board traveled to the Middle East and Saudi
Arabia, to participate in briefings, tours, and demonstrations by local Halliburton leaders showcasing work and technologies
developed and used at the Halliburton Technology Center in Saudi Arabia. The Board continued its Saudi Arabia operations
review with meetings and tours of customer facilities and operations.
Enterprise Risk Management
Our Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) program identifies and analyzes enterprise-level risks and their potential impact on
our business. The objectives of our ERM program are to:
increase the probability of achieving higher returns on capital and reducing cash flow volatility by identifying:
current and developing risks; and
significant controls and potential gaps related to identified risks;
ensure that our key risks are being effectively managed; and
ensure that our compensation policies incentivize management actions that both drive our strategy and manage risks
prudently.
Our internal processes to identify and manage risks include our Code of Business Conduct; extensive policies and business
practices; financial controls; internal assurance audits of our internal controls and health, safety, environment, and
sustainability; the activities of the Ethics and Compliance group of the Law Department; and our ERM program.
The Audit Committee receives an annual ERM report on risk assessment and risk management in which risks are identified
and assigned a significance rating based on potential consequences of the risk, the likelihood of occurrence, and mitigation
preparedness.
Our Chief Executive Officer, who is primarily responsible for managing our day-to-day business, is ultimately responsible to
the Board for all risk categories. Our executive officers have responsibility for the various risk categories. The Board has
delegated to its Committees the responsibility to monitor certain risks and receive regular updates on those risks.
Sustainability
The risks and opportunities presented by sustainability-related matters are particularly broad-ranging and interrelated and –
as reflected in the chart above – require coordinated oversight responsibilities among the Board and its Committees. The
Board oversees Halliburton’s performance and management across key sustainability-related matters, and the Board’s
standing Committees provide closer oversight and guidance on different aspects of sustainability issues. For example, the
Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee assesses and advises on risks that may arise in connection with
Halliburton’s overall sustainability strategy and risks, as well as individual topics such as Halliburton’s political activities,
while other Committees assess and advise on other individual sustainability-related risks and opportunities (such as the
Audit Committee’s oversight of enterprise risk, including information security, cybersecurity, and artificial intelligence, and the
Health, Safety and Environment Committee’s oversight of environmental impact (including climate matters)). The full Board
receives regular reporting from each Committee on such matters and retains ultimate oversight of all sustainability-related
matters relevant to Halliburton.
The following subsections outline the Board’s approach to overseeing three high-priority sustainability topics, corporate
political spending, cybersecurity, and artificial intelligence.
10
HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement
www.halliburton.com
Political and Lobbying Spending
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for oversight, review, and approval of political
engagements such as Halliburton’s lobbying activities, payments to trade associations, and political expenditures, as
provided by the Halliburton Policies for Political Engagement, which also provides a comprehensive overview of the political
activity we engaged in this year. The report is available on our website at www.halliburton.com.
Notable highlights from this report include:
Zero corporate contributions made directly to political parties or candidates.
Zero corporate contributions used to support ballot measures.
Prohibitions against using corporate funds to contribute to 527 and 501(c)(4) organizations.
Board oversight of the Company’s strategy for political engagement, including oversight of political spending and lobbying.
In 2025, Halliburton scored a 91 on the CPA-Zicklin Index with a raw score of 64 points. A score of 90 or above indicates
robust disclosure and oversight and classifies a company as a Trendsetter, a status Halliburton first obtained in 2022 and
has maintained since then. We are one of two oilfield services company currently classified as a CPA-Zicklin Index
Trendsetter.
Cybersecurity
Global attacks on corporate Information Technology and Operational Technology are increasingly frequent and
sophisticated. Halliburton takes every threat to cybersecurity seriously. We invest significant resources in protecting
Company systems and data, and do so in alignment with industry standards, including the National Institute of Standards
and Technology (NIST) Cyber Security Framework, NIST 800-53, NIST 800-82, and International Electrotechnical
Commission 62443.
Halliburton’s Board of Directors receives an update on cybersecurity during each of its quarterly meetings. This update
includes data on cybersecurity metrics, information on internal and third-party cybersecurity incidents, and general
discussion of cybersecurity risks. In addition, the Audit Committee receives a detailed update annually which includes in-
depth updates on Halliburton’s cybersecurity program and strategy, including cybersecurity risks.
In the event of a cybersecurity incident, our Board and management team maintain a cyber risk management program
designed to identify, assess, manage, mitigate, and respond to cybersecurity threats. In addition, we have an Incident
Response Plan that defines procedures for assessing, identifying, and managing a cybersecurity incident. We have
experienced cybersecurity incidents and attempted breaches in the past, one of which resulted in an unauthorized third party
gaining access to certain of our systems and exfiltrating information from those systems, which we determined was a
material cybersecurity incident as previously disclosed in a Form 8-K we filed with the SEC on September 3, 2024. The
Board and the Audit Committee provided oversight throughout the incident and in post-incident evaluation of the Company
response.
Artificial Intelligence
In 2025, Halliburton established an Artificial Intelligence (AI) Governance and Use Committee (AI Committee), a cross
functional committee of senior leadership, to provide regular reports to the Audit Committee over AI related risks and
strategy. During a regularly scheduled meeting in 2025, the Audit Committee reviewed the AI Committee charter and related
company policy. The Audit Committee oversees the strategy of the AI Committee's purpose to govern artificial intelligence
controls and Halliburton's balance of AI opportunity, benefit and risk.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are independent under our Corporate Governance Guidelines. Also,
none of our independent directors are related to any other Director or executive officer of Halliburton. The Board has
determined that Alan M. Bennett, Earl M. Cummings, Murry S. Gerber, Timothy A. Leach, and Janet L. Weiss are “Audit
Committee financial experts” as defined by the SEC.

HALLIBURTON

Evaluation of Board and Director Performance
The Board believes that a rigorous evaluation process is an essential component of strong corporate governance practices.
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee annually conducts a four-part evaluation process to evaluate Board
effectiveness and aid in succession planning.
PROCESS REVIEW
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews and approves the process to
evaluate the performance of the Board, its four standing Committees (Audit; Compensation;
Health, Safety and Environment; and Nominating and Corporate Governance), and each
individual Director. The Committee also approves a Director qualifications and experience
survey.
Questionnaires and the survey are distributed through a web-based platform. This process
encourages candid responses from our Directors and promotes productive discussions.
EVALUATION
Each Director completes written questionnaires designed to gather suggestions to improve
Board, Committee, and Director performance and effectiveness and to identify opportunities
for change. The questionnaires solicit feedback on a range of issues, including:
Board operations
Succession planning
Committee composition, processes, and
responsibilities
Information sharing with and from
management
Overall Board dynamics
Director preparation, participation, and
contribution
Alignment of skills and characteristics to
business needs and strategy
Leadership
Agenda topics
The qualifications and experience survey identifies individual skills and expertise of each
non-management Director.
ANALYSIS
The Lead Independent Director reviews the completed questionnaires and provides a
summary to the Board. The Board then updates its qualifications and experience matrix
based on the survey responses and feedback, with a focus on optimizing the range and
depth of perspectives and experiences necessary to oversee the relevant opportunities,
strategies, and risks of the Company. Through this process the Board identifies the skills and
expertise desirable for future Director candidates.
ACTIONS TAKEN
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Chair reports to the Board on the results of the
entire process. If warranted, the Chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance
Committee or the Lead Independent Director engage in discussions with individual Board
members about their performance. This year, the Board held a discussion of the Board’s
processes and the evaluation results. The Directors concluded that the Board and its
Committees are functioning well.

Shareholder Nominations of Directors
Our By-laws provide that shareholders may nominate persons for election to the Board at a meeting of shareholders.
Shareholder nominations require written notice to the Corporate Secretary at the address of our principal executive office set
forth on page 100 of this proxy statement, and for the 2027 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, must be received not less than

20 shareholders owning 3% or more of our outstanding common stock continuously for at least three years to nominate and
include in our proxy materials for a meeting of shareholders up to two Directors or 20% of the Board, whichever is greater,
provided that the shareholder(s) and the nominee(s) satisfy the requirements specified in the By-laws.
Qualifications of Directors
Candidates nominated for election or re-election to the Board should possess the following qualifications:
Personal characteristics:
high personal and professional ethics, integrity, and values;
an inquiring and independent mind; and
practical wisdom and mature judgment;
Experience and broad training and work at the policy-making level in a variety of business, government, education, or
technology organizations, including in serving at the highest levels of such organizations;
Expertise that is useful to the Company and complementary to the background and experience of other Board members,
so that an optimum balance of experience, expertise, markets, industries, and geographic reach of Board members can
be achieved and maintained;
Willingness to devote the required amount of time to carry out the duties and responsibilities of Board membership;
Commitment to serve on the Board for several years to develop knowledge about our business;
Willingness to represent the best interests of all of our shareholders and objectively evaluate management performance;

and its shareholders.
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for assessing the appropriate mix of skills and
characteristics required of Board members and periodically reviews and updates the criteria. In selecting Director nominees,
the Board considers the personal characteristics, experience, and other criteria as set forth in our Corporate Governance
Guidelines, as well as the Company’s specific needs and the needs of our Board at the time.

Board Refreshment
The Board of Directors is responsible for filling Board vacancies when they occur, and for making sure regular Board
refreshment occurs. The Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines stipulate that each non-management Director shall
retire from the Board immediately prior to the annual shareholder meeting that follows his or her 75th birthday.
The Board has delegated to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee the duty to select and recommend new
candidates for approval. When called upon to fill a vacancy, this Committee considers all recommended candidates, and
may retain an independent executive search firm to assist with candidate selection and review.
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee conducts an annual review of the overall composition of the Board
to determine whether the current non-management Directors collectively represent an appropriate mix of experience,
backgrounds, and expertise. Determination of expertise includes consideration of the following, among other factors: public
company leadership, including C-suite experience; oil and natural gas experience, manufacturing, engineering, or
technology experience; and experience relating to health, safety, the environment, and sustainability. In addition, the
Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee periodically reviews a running list of potential director candidates at the
Committee meetings to review candidate availability and interest, along with the match of those candidates to upcoming
experience and expertise needs.

Ms. Young's past work experience
in governance has given her a
clear and compelling vision for
board composition, emphasizing
the importance of cognitive
diversity and global perspectives,
noting that Halliburton's operations
across 70+ countries require a
board that can navigate complex
geopolitical and regulatory
environments. This reflects her
strategic mindset and ability to
align governance and enterprise-
wise risk and opportunity.
Mr. Cummings brings financial
expertise and strategic oversight to
Halliburton's Audit Committee. His
leadership spans capital raising,
due diligence, asset management,
and investor relations - core
disciplines that directly support
Halliburton's commitment to
financial transparency and
operational excellence. His proven
track record and disciplined
approach reinforce our confidence
in the integrity of our financial
governance and our dedication to
delivering long-term shareholder
value.
As the former president of BP
Alaska's operation, Ms. Weiss
provides hands on, in the field
executive experience in the daily
operational and health, safety,
and environmental requirements
needed to operate safely in the oil
and natural gas industry. Her
proven leadership aligns with
Halliburton's global commitment
to safety performance,
sustainability strategies, service
quality, continuous improvement,
and regulatory compliance.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider candidates for Board membership recommended by
Board members, our management, and shareholders. The Committee may also retain an independent executive search firm
to identify candidates for consideration and to gather additional information about the candidate’s background, experience,
and reputation. A shareholder who wishes to recommend a candidate should notify our Corporate Secretary.
In anticipation of upcoming mandatory Director age retirements, our Board refreshment journey includes the enhancement
of our Board with the addition of six Directors since 2022, each of whom provide a variety of experiences and expertise to
the Board, and the refreshment and rotation of 3 of our 4 committee chairs.
With respect to Directors that have joined the Board since our most recent annual meeting, Mr. Leach joined the Board in
December 2025. Mr. Leach is a widely respected leader in the oil and gas business, bringing decades and deep expertise in
upstream operations, strategic planning, and corporate governance. Mr. Slocum joined the Board in January 2026, as a
management director, concurrent with his appointment as Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, bringing
global operations experience and proven leadership to help Halliburton maximize asset value for its customers.
With several of our Directors reaching mandatory retirement age, the Board continually evaluates whether additional
Directors would enhance the Board's oversight, experience, breadth, and other attributes. Further, the addition of new
Directors, prior to Director retirements, presents an opportunity for those Directors to learn key positions before the retiring
Director's departure. Specifically, Mr. Cummings assumed the role of Audit Committee chair in February 2025 and Ms. Weiss
assumed the role of Health, Safety, and Environment chair in May 2025, in anticipation of the approaching mandatory
retirements of Mr. Bennett and Mr. Albrecht.

Shareholder Engagement
Halliburton’s Board values continuous improvement. We prioritize regular engagement with our shareholders through
consistent, open dialogue that helps us gather valuable feedback and ensures we are aware of investor viewpoints.
During the fall of 2025, we participated in off-season investor meetings to better understand our shareholder priorities and
concerns prior to the proxy voting season. We offered to engage with our largest shareholders, as well as several others
who had contacted Halliburton. We offered engagement to and communicated with shareholders representing approximately
61% of our shares as well as the two largest shareholder proxy advisors, Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS) and Glass
Lewis. As a result of this outreach, we hosted video-conferences with ten shareholders who represented approximately 35%
of our shares and proxy advisors ISS and Glass Lewis. These meetings included conversations with Halliburton senior
management.
We provided our shareholder presentation to all of our largest shareholders and others who contacted Halliburton, even if
they were unable to participate in a video call. Our 2025 updates to these materials highlighted the latest information about
our business; our Board oversight and engagement; our executive compensation program; our people, health, safety, and
the environment; and our approach to sustainable energy solutions. We also offered to follow up to discuss any questions or
concerns. Our aim is to provide all shareholders the opportunity to communicate their expectations and stay abreast of our
activities, regardless of whether they are able to attend a formal meeting.
In addition to providing an off-season investor engagement program, we solicited additional shareholder feedback with our
annual and quarterly reporting, earnings conference calls, and investor meetings. We also conducted outreach to investment
research analysts and other parties who are not shareholders, but who have interest in and offer feedback about
Halliburton's activities. As part of these campaigns, Halliburton’s senior management and Investor Relations team hosted

Directors’ Compensation
Directors’ Fees
All non-management Directors receive an annual retainer of $130,000, which has not increased since 2022. The Lead
Independent Director receives an additional annual retainer of $40,000, and the chair of each Committee receives an
additional annual retainer for serving as chair as follows: Audit - $25,000; Compensation - $20,000; Health, Safety and
Environment - $20,000; and Nominating and Corporate Governance - $20,000. Non-management Directors are permitted to
defer all or part of their fees under the Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan.
Directors’ Equity Awards
All non-management Directors receive an annual equity award with a value of approximately $200,000, increased in 2025
from $185,000, consisting of restricted stock units (RSUs), each of which represents the right to receive a share of common
stock at a future date. These annual awards are made in December. The actual number of RSUs is determined by dividing
$200,000 by the average of the closing price of our common stock on the NYSE on each business day during the month of
November. The value of the award on the date of the award may be more or less than $200,000 based on the methodology
described above for determining the number of RSUs to be awarded. Non-management Directors are permitted to defer all
of their RSUs under the Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan.
Additionally, when a non-management Director first joins the Board, he or she receives an equity award shortly thereafter of
RSUs equal to a prorated value of the annual equity award of $200,000. The factor used to determine the prorated award is
the number of whole months of service from the beginning of the month in which Board service begins to the following first of
December divided by 12. The number of RSUs awarded is determined by dividing the prorated award amount by the
average of the closing price of our common stock on the NYSE on each business day during the full calendar month
immediately preceding the date the Director joined the Board.
Directors may not sell, assign, otherwise transfer, or encumber restricted shares (which were previously granted to non-
management Directors) or RSUs until the restrictions are removed. Restrictions on RSUs lapse entirely on the first
anniversary of the grant date with the applicable underlying shares of common stock distributed to the non-management
Director unless the Director elected to defer receipt of the shares under the Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan. If a non-
management Director has a separation of service from the Board before completing the specified number of service years
from the applicable award date, any unvested RSUs would be forfeited, unless the Board determines to accelerate vesting.
Restrictions on restricted shares and RSUs lapse following termination of Board service only under specified circumstances,
which include death or disability, retirement under the Director mandatory retirement policy, or early retirement after at least
four years of service.
During the restriction period, Directors have the right to (i) vote restricted shares, but not shares underlying RSUs, and (ii)
receive dividends or dividend equivalents in cash on restricted shares and RSUs that have not been deferred. RSUs that
have been deferred receive dividend equivalents under the Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan.
Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan
The Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan is a nonqualified deferred compensation plan and participation is completely
voluntary. Under the plan, non-management Directors are permitted to defer all or part of their retainer fees and all of the
shares of common stock underlying their RSUs when they vest. If a non-management Director elects to defer retainer fees
under the plan, then the Director may elect to have his or her deferred fees accumulate under an interest-bearing account or
translate on a quarterly basis into Halliburton common stock equivalent units (SEUs) under a stock equivalents account. If a
non-management Director elects to defer receipt of the shares of common stock underlying his or her RSUs when they vest,
then those shares are retained as deferred RSUs under the plan. The interest-bearing account is credited daily with interest
at the prime rate of Citibank, N.A. The SEUs and deferred RSUs are credited quarterly with dividend equivalents based on
the same dividend rate as Halliburton common stock, and those amounts are translated into additional SEUs or RSUs,
respectively.
34
HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement
www.halliburton.com
After a Director’s retirement, distributions under the plan are made to the Director in a single distribution or in annual
installments over a five- or ten-year period as elected by the Director. Distributions under the interest-bearing account are
made in cash, while distributions of SEUs under the stock equivalents account and deferred RSUs are made in shares of
Halliburton common stock. Messrs. Al Khayyal, Bennett, Patel, and Smith have deferred retainer fees under the plan. Dr.
Banks, Ms. Weiss and Messrs. Al Khayyal, Albrecht, Bennett, Cummings, Patel, and Smith have deferred RSUs under the
plan.
Directors’ Stock Ownership Requirements
We have stock ownership requirements for all non-management Directors to further align their interests with our
shareholders. All non-management Directors are required to own Halliburton common stock at least equal to the greater of
(i) the annual base retainer in effect on the date the non-management Director is first elected to the Board multiplied by five
or (ii) $500,000. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews the holdings of all non-management
Directors, which include restricted shares, other Halliburton common stock, SEUs, and RSUs owned by the Director, at each
May meeting. Each non-management Director has five years to meet the requirements, measured from the date he or she is
first elected to the Board. Each non-management Director currently meets the stock ownership requirements or is on track to
do so within the requisite five-year period.
Director Clawback Policy
We have adopted a supplemental recoupment policy under which we may seek, in appropriate cases, to recoup incentive-
based compensation, including both time- and performance-vesting awards paid to, awarded to, or credited for the benefit of
a Director, if and to the extent that it is determined that, in connection with the performance of that Director’s duties, he or
she breached his or her fiduciary duty through a knowing or reckless material violation of law; breached the Company’s
Code of Business Conduct in a matter that results in, or could reasonably expect to result in, material, reputational, or
financial harm to the Company; or recklessly disregarded his or her duty to exercise reasonable oversight. We may also
recoup incentive-based compensation if the Director is named as a defendant for such actions above, and we either
determine that the action is not indemnifiable or the Director does not prevail at trial.
The disinterested members of the Board and the disinterested members of the Compensation Committee and the
Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may be involved in reviewing, considering, and making determinations
regarding the Director’s alleged conduct, whether recoupment is appropriate or required, and the type and amount of
incentive compensation to be recouped from the Director.
There was no recoupment under the supplemental policy in 2025.

Long-Term 120% AFR rate as of December 31, 2025. The 120% Annual AFR rate used for determining above-market
earnings in 2025 was 5.47%. The average Director earnings for the balances associated with the Directors’ Deferred

A Note About Charitable Giving and Matching. Halliburton believes charitable giving and charitable matching programs
benefit the communities in which we live and work and are the right thing to do. These charitable gifts include a corporate
match that all employees and Directors may access to direct giving to accredited colleges and universities, qualified medical
institutions, and K-12 educational institutions. The employee and director gift amount subject to corporate match is capped
at $20,000 for employees and $50,000 for directors.  The K-12 educational institution gift amount subject to corporate match
is capped at $500 for matching purposes or up to $1,125 in corporate match. By matching charitable gifts to colleges and
universities and K-12 educational institutions, we invest in the next generation and help build a sustainable pipeline of talent.
During shareholder engagement, our shareholders have provided feedback to us that investing in the future through giving
to colleges and universities is one positive way to attract future employees. By matching charitable gifts to qualified medical
institutions, we invest in the foundational medical support that allow the places where we live and work to thrive. For
Directors and officers who participate, the "All Other Compensation" column will include a calculation of the charitable
match. Here are a few examples of matches: Directors make charitable contributions to support colleges and universities as
we collectively work to improve recruiting and STEM programs, and also to Connecticut Children's Foundation whose
mission is to improve the physical, social, and emotional health of children. For Directors, the Halliburton Foundation
matches personal contributions up to 2.25 times the amount contributed by the Director, with the matched funds paid directly
to the college, university, or hospital or K-12 educational institution, not the Directors. Our Directors derive no personal
benefit from these contributions. Neither the Halliburton Foundation nor we have made a charitable contribution, within the
preceding three years, to any charitable organization in which a Director serves as an executive officer that exceeds in any
single year the greater of $1 million or 2% of such charitable organization’s consolidated gross revenues. Finally, if they
choose to participate, the Halliburton Political Action Committee allows Directors to participate in HALPAC, and the
Company provides a dollar-for-dollar match on contributions over $100 annually, up to a $5,000 limit match to a 501(c)(3)
nonprofit organization of the contributor’s choice.

Meeting to ratify this selection. The Audit Committee and Board believe that the continued retention of KPMG to serve as our
principal independent public accountants for the year ending December 31, 2026, is in the best interests of Halliburton and
our shareholders. Representatives of KPMG are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting and be available to respond
to appropriate questions from shareholders.
KPMG began serving as our principal independent public accountants for the year ended December 31, 2002. The Audit
Committee routinely reviews the performance and retention of our independent public accountants, including an evaluation
of service quality, the nature and extent of non-audit services, and other factors required to be considered when assessing
independence from Halliburton and its management. The Audit Committee also periodically considers whether there should
be a rotation of the principal independent public accountants and is involved in the selection of the principal independent
public accountants’ lead engagement partner and the mandated rotation process of such partner.
Vote Required
The affirmative vote of the majority of the votes cast by holders of shares of our common stock present in person or
represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter is needed to approve the proposal.
Although the ratification of the appointment of our principal independent public accountants is not required to be submitted to
a vote of shareholders, we value the opinions of our shareholders and believe that shareholder ratification of such
appointment is a good corporate governance practice. If the shareholders do not ratify the appointment of KPMG, the Board
will reconsider the appointment of independent public accountants.

Audit Committee Report
We operate under a written charter, a copy of which is available on Halliburton’s website at www.halliburton.com. As
required by the charter, we review and reassess the charter annually and recommend any changes to the Board for
approval. We are also mindful of the observations provided in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Statement on
Role of Audit Committees in Financial Reporting and Key Reminders Regarding Oversight Responsibilities.
Halliburton’s management is responsible for preparing Halliburton’s financial statements, and the principal independent
public accountants are responsible for auditing those financial statements. The Audit Committee’s role is to provide oversight
of management in carrying out management’s responsibility and to appoint, compensate, retain, oversee the work of, and
evaluate the principal independent public accountants. The Audit Committee is not providing any expert or special
assurance as to Halliburton’s financial statements or any professional certification as to the principal independent public
accountants’ work.
In fulfilling our oversight role for the year ended December 31, 2025, we:
reviewed and discussed Halliburton’s audited financial statements with management;
discussed with KPMG LLP, Halliburton’s principal independent public accountants, the matters required by Auditing
Standard 1301 relating to the conduct of the audit;
received from KPMG the written disclosures and the letter required by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
regarding KPMG’s independence;
evaluated KPMG’s service quality; and
discussed with KPMG its independence and reviewed other matters required to be considered under Securities and
Exchange Commission rules regarding KPMG’s independence.
Based on the foregoing, we recommended to the Board that the audited financial statements be included in Halliburton’s
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, for filing with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

Audit Fees
Audit fees represent the aggregate fees for professional services rendered by KPMG for the integrated audit of our annual
financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024, and December 31, 2025. Audit fees also include the
audits of many of our subsidiaries to comply with statutory requirements in foreign countries and reviews of our financial
statements included in the Forms 10-Q we filed during fiscal years 2024 and 2025.
Audit-Related Fees
Audit-related fees were incurred for assurance and related services that are traditionally performed by the independent
public accountants. These services primarily include attestation engagements required by contractual or regulatory
provisions.
Tax Fees
The aggregate fees for tax services primarily consisted of international tax compliance, international tax advisory, and tax
return services related to our expatriate employees. In 2024, tax compliance and advisory fees totaled $0.3 million and
expatriate fees totaled $0.3 million, and in 2025 tax compliance and advisory fees totaled $0.9 million and expatriate tax fees
were zero.
All Other Fees
All other fees are comprised of professional services rendered by KPMG related to nonrecurring miscellaneous services.
Fee Approval Policies and Procedures
The Audit Committee has established a written policy that requires the approval by the Audit Committee of all services
provided by KPMG as the principal independent public accountants that examine our financial statements and books and
records and of all audit services provided by other independent public accountants. Prior to engaging KPMG for the annual
audit, the Audit Committee reviews a Principal Independent Public Accountants Auditor Services Plan. KPMG then performs
services throughout the year as approved by the Committee. KPMG reviews with the Committee, at least quarterly, a
projection of KPMG’s fees for the year. Periodically, the Audit Committee approves revisions to the plan if the Committee
determines changes are warranted. Our Audit Committee also considered whether KPMG’s provision of tax services as
reported above were compatible with maintaining KPMG’s independence as our principal independent public accountants.
All of the fees described above for services provided by KPMG were approved in accordance with the policy.

Proposal No. 3  Advisory Approval of
Executive Compensation
Pursuant to Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, our shareholders have the opportunity to vote to approve,
on an advisory basis, the compensation of our Named Executive Officers (NEOs) as disclosed in this proxy statement. As
reaffirmed by our shareholders at the 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, consistent with our Board’s recommendation,
we submit this proposal for a non-binding vote on an annual basis.
As described in detail under Compensation Discussion and Analysis, our executive compensation program is designed to
attract, motivate, and retain our NEOs, who are critical to our success. Under the program, our NEOs are rewarded for the
achievement of specific annual, long-term, and strategic goals, corporate goals, and the realization of increased shareholder
returns. Please read Compensation Discussion and Analysis for additional details about our executive compensation
program, including information about the fiscal year 2025 compensation of our NEOs and our Board’s ongoing commitment
to ensure that our program aligns with our long-term strategy and shareholder value creation.
The Compensation Committee reviews the compensation program for our NEOs to ensure the program achieves the
desired goals of aligning our executive compensation structure with our shareholders’ interests and current market practices.
We believe our executive compensation program achieves the following objectives identified under Compensation
Discussion and Analysis:
Provide a clear and direct relationship between executive pay and our performance on both a short-term and long-term
basis;
Target market competitive pay levels with a comparator peer group;
Emphasize operating performance drivers;
Link executive pay to measures that drive shareholder returns;
Support our business strategies; and
Maximize the return on our human resource investment.
We ask that our shareholders indicate their support for our compensation program as described in this proxy statement and
vote “FOR” the following resolution at the Annual Meeting: “RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to Halliburton’s Named
Executive Officers, as disclosed in this proxy statement pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the Compensation
Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables, and narrative discussion, is hereby approved.”
Vote Required
The affirmative vote of the majority of the votes cast by holders of shares of our common stock present in person or
represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter is needed to approve the proposal.
Our Board and our Compensation Committee value the opinions of our shareholders. The say-on-pay vote is advisory and,
therefore, not binding on us, our Board, or our Compensation Committee. However, the Compensation Committee considers
shareholder feedback in its ongoing review of our executive compensation program.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis
To Our Valued Shareholders:
Our executive compensation program is built on best-practice design and continues
to deliver on its core purpose—driving superior returns and reinforcing Halliburton’s
strong culture of execution. Its strength reflects the rigor of our performance metrics,
the consistency of our governance, and the ongoing engagement with shareholders
that reinforces alignment and accountability.
Murry S. Gerber
Chair of the Compensation Committee
March 31, 2026
The approximately 94% say-on-pay support at the 2025 Annual Meeting reaffirms confidence in our approach, validating a
framework that balances performance and investor expectations with the realities of a cyclical energy sector and positions
leadership to navigate evolving market conditions.
In 2025, Halliburton delivered strong results, returning $1.6 billion to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases
while generating $2.9 billion of operating cash flow, resulting in $1.9 billion in free cash flow. Despite macroeconomic
headwinds, our senior leadership team navigated the environment with strategic precision, reducing gross debt by $382
million and further strengthening our balance sheet. While revenue declined year over year, our sustained Return on Capital
Employed (ROCE) performance over multi-year periods highlights the senior leadership team’s ability to drive financial
discipline, operational excellence, and long-term value creation in a challenging market. Our executive compensation
program is designed to reinforce this disciplined approach, ensuring senior leadership remains sharply focused on delivering
sustainable performance and long-term shareholder value.
This year’s Compensation Discussion and Analysis (CD&A) summarizes the pay decisions made by the Compensation
Committee for Named Executive Officers (NEOs) for 2025 and reviews the ongoing shareholder engagement efforts that
have helped shape our executive compensation program’s current structure and governance foundation.
As always, we appreciate the care you take in reading this year’s CD&A, and we are confident it demonstrates our
commitment to continually strengthening our pay program structure and alignment with our shareholders’ interests.
Sincerely,
THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE

Shareholder Outreach and Board Activity
Halliburton prioritizes continuing engagement with its shareholders. Our ongoing and earnest engagement with long-term
investors ensures that the Board and management understand investors’ views and provides our Compensation Committee
with valuable feedback.
During the fall of 2025, we participated in off-season investor meetings to better understand shareholder priorities and
concerns prior to the proxy voting season. We offered to engage with our largest shareholders, as well as several others
who had contacted Halliburton. We offered engagement to and communicated with shareholders representing approximately
61% of our shares as well as the two largest shareholder proxy advisors, Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS) and Glass
Lewis. As a result of this outreach, we hosted video-conferences with ten shareholders who represented approximately 35%
of our shares and proxy advisors ISS and Glass Lewis. These meetings included conversations with Halliburton senior
management. These efforts were conducted in addition to the 14 sell-side conferences, one non-deal roadshow, and 302
investor meetings, that are all part of our regular shareholder outreach cadence.
Management reviewed the previously disclosed updates to the Performance Peer Group with shareholders. Those
discussions included a variety of topics including the relevance of the Philadelphia Oil Service Index (OSX) and
Performance Peer Group used for measuring relative performance to determine payouts under our Performance Unit
Program (PUP). The discussion noted that the OSX includes a much broader collection of energy services, and not simply
oilfield services, and includes services such as liquified natural gas (LNG) and others while at the same time excluding
oilfield services companies such as Baker Hughes Company and Liberty Energy Inc. The discussion also covered the
importance of ensuring that Halliburton’s Performance Peer Group remains relevant and robust in a rapidly evolving
business landscape, including as a service provider to the exploration and production industry, which is rapidly
consolidating. Halliburton heard from shareholders general support for the new Performance Peer group and understanding
about the OSX composition. The discussions with ISS and Glass Lewis included questions and answers about this
shareholder feedback and general support for the new Performance Peer Group.
During these discussions in 2025, investors expressed high satisfaction with how Halliburton's executive compensation
program is structured today. At our 2025 Annual Meeting, approximately 94% of the votes cast for say-on-pay supported our
executive compensation decisions. Shareholders made it clear that they are pleased with our ongoing responsiveness to
their feedback, our overall compensation design, including the specific, measurable metrics in our Annual Performance Plan,
and the use of relative Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) and Total Shareholder Return (TSR) in the PUP. Other than
updating the Performance Peer Group used in the Performance Unit Program, we did not make any material changes to our
program for 2025. The details of this update are discussed in the 2025 Performance Peer Group section of this CD&A.

Straight from the Boardroom:
Talking with Murry S. Gerber
Gerber Feb 2024 cropped.jpg
Robust discussions with investors have led to meaningful and well-received
changes to our executive compensation program. Below are the answers to
recent representative shareholder questions from Murry S. Gerber, Chair of
our Compensation Committee.
Q.What was the Compensation Committee's reaction to the 2025 Annual Meeting, when over 94% of shareholders
supported the 2025 say-on-pay proposal?
AWe were pleased to once again receive support from more than 90% of our shareholders. We believe strong support for
the say-on-pay proposal in recent years has been due in large part to the Committee's years of listening to
shareholders, thoughtfully integrating feedback, and aligning our executive compensation program with investor
expectations–without compromising our commitment to driving superior returns and balancing compensation against a
competitive market for talent. Because this is a highly cyclical business, the Committee must maintain vigilance and
awareness of competition for talent and associated compensation for it.
Regular engagement ensures we stay ahead of and understand any emerging investor concerns. We were also
pleased that, during our engagement with shareholders during the fall of 2025, our largest shareholders made it clear
that they are pleased with our overall compensation design.
QWhy were the 2025 financial performance targets under the Annual Performance Pay Plan set below 2024
actual results?
AFundamentally and first, this is without question a highly cyclical business that operates against a geopolitical backdrop
that substantially influences the macro supply and demand balance for oil and gas.
The Annual Performance Pay Plan includes two key financial measures, Net Operating Profit After Taxes (NOPAT) and
Asset Turns, which together evaluate profitability, capital efficiency, and free cash flow generation. These metrics are
fundamental to how Halliburton manages its business and reflect shareholder expectations for disciplined execution and
sustained returns across market cycles.
When establishing the 2025 financial performance targets at the beginning of the year, the Compensation Committee
reviewed the Company's annual operating plan, market forecasts, and broader industry trends. Following two years of
strong recovery, the Compensation Committee expected 2025 to reflect a more normalized operating environment.
Market indicators pointed to steady activity levels, continued capital discipline among customers, and pricing stability
rather than further expansion. These conditions were expected to moderate revenue growth and margin performance,
directly affecting the NOPAT and Asset Turns measures that drive plan outcomes.
In this context, the Compensation Committee determined that it was appropriate to set 2025 financial performance
targets below 2024 actual results to ensure the targets represented realistic stretch performance—levels that remain
challenging and demand continued focus on cost management, operational efficiency, and capital returns. The
Compensation Committee cannot and does not assume performance will rise mechanically each year; rather, it
calibrates targets based on the conditions expected for the plan year, ensuring that they remain rigorous and aligned
with the realities of the business and the broader industry. This approach is a natural consequence of operating in the
oilfield services industry, and one that is tailored to our industry. In a cyclical market, the Board and Compensation
Committee evaluate a wide range of leading indicators for the forthcoming year and set financial performance targets
that they believe appropriately challenge executive performance while remaining grounded in the expected and most
realistic estimates for the operating landscape.
This approach is consistent with how the Compensation Committee has managed incentive design throughout the
cycle. In periods of expansion, financial performance targets are set to drive improvement over already strong
performance; during periods of normalization or contraction, they are established to preserve profitability, optimize asset
utilization, and reinforce capital discipline. The Compensation Committee believes in setting realistic stretch targets, as
evidenced during past industry downturns, when it established goals it believed to be achievable yet demanding, and in
several years, those targets were not met. That experience underscores the Compensation Committee's commitment to
46
HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement
www.halliburton.com
maintaining rigor and credibility in incentive design and ensuring that the Annual Performance Pay Plan continues to
support long-term shareholder value creation through changing market conditions.
To further illustrate that financial performance targets do not automatically increase in a cyclical business, despite the
2024-to-2025 financial targets and Halliburton’s strong relative performance versus peers, management did not earn a
NOPAT payout under the Annual Performance Pay Plan.
QWhy is Halliburton proposing to replenish shares under the Halliburton Company Stock and Incentive Plan
(SIP) and the Halliburton Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP), and how do you address concerns about
dilution?
AThese programs are essential to how we motivate, retain and align our people with long-term shareholder value. Equity
ownership matters in our culture—from our executive leadership team to employees across the Company. At the same
time, we are mindful of dilution and burn-rate impacts. When evaluating this proposal, we compared our projected
dilution and historical burn-rate to other leading companies in the oilfield services sector. This is important because
companies in our industry rely heavily on equity programs to attract and retain technical and operational talent, and
investors typically assess dilution relative to these industry practices. We sized our request to keep Halliburton generally
aligned with the levels we observed among peers, ensuring we remain within market norms while preserving programs
that are critical to our ability to attract, retain, and engage the workforce that drives our performance.
QHow does the Compensation Committee determine Halliburton's Comparator Peer Group?
AThe Compensation Committee applies a comprehensive and data-driven approach to developing Halliburton’s
Comparator Peer Group. Our objective is to create a peer set that reflects the size, scale, scope, and complexity of
Halliburton’s global operations and aligns with investor expectations for a disciplined and transparent evaluation
process. The resulting group serves as a robust foundation for assessing the competitiveness, balance, and
effectiveness of our executive compensation program.
Each year, with support from our independent compensation consultant, the Compensation Committee conducts a
detailed review of the peer group to confirm that it continues to reflect companies comparable to Halliburton in business
model, geographic reach, and operational complexity. The process begins with the existing peer group and expands to
include potential peers identified through institutional investor research, management and Board input, and analysis of
organizations that compete with Halliburton for business opportunities and leadership talent.
From this broader pool, the Compensation Committee conducts a structured, multi-factor screening process that
considers a blend of financial, operational, and qualitative criteria, including revenue, market capitalization, employee
base, industry affiliation (such as oilfield services, drilling, and related energy or industrial sectors), geographic footprint,
operating characteristics, corporate headquarters location, and stock price correlation. The Compensation Committee
also evaluates each company’s business complexity, global presence, and financial stability to ensure appropriate
comparability. To maintain balance and relevance, the Compensation Committee focuses on companies of comparable
scale and operational breadth—typically within a revenue range that aligns with Halliburton’s position in the market—
while retaining flexibility to include strategically important competitors whose size or structure differs but whose
business dynamics or talent markets are directly relevant. This was the process that we followed in updating the
Performance Peer Group used in the Performance Unit Program this past year. (See page 44 for additional details on
this change.)
Q.Did the Company hear anything during the fall 2025 engagement meetings that has the Committee
contemplating any changes for 2026?
ANo. During the fall 2025 shareholder engagement cycle, investors expressed broad support for the structure and
operation of Halliburton’s executive compensation program. Feedback reaffirmed confidence in the Compensation
Committee’s use of returns-based metrics, particularly ROCE under the PUP, as well as the continued emphasis on
profitability, capital efficiency, and free cash flow generation under the Annual Performance Pay Plan. Investors also
noted the value of the Company’s transparent disclosure and the Compensation Committee’s disciplined approach to
target-setting across varying market conditions.

2025 CEO Compensation Overview
Determination of CEO Target Total Compensation
When determining target total compensation for the CEO, the Compensation Committee evaluates CEO compensation
through various lenses to ensure that it is setting competitive total target compensation opportunities and approving actual
compensation outcomes that are aligned with actual performance results and shareholder expectations.
Under our PUP, we use a mix of performance cash (50%) and performance stock (50%). This approach affects how we
report executive compensation in the Summary Compensation Table, making it impractical to directly compare our
executives' actual reported pay with competitors who use 100% stock for long-term incentives—because under the SEC’s
reporting rules, these two methods yield different disclosures. Specifically, performance cash is reported when paid and
performance stock is reported when granted. This means that when we outperform our competitors, our reported pay can be
materially higher than theirs even if their actual pay is the same or higher. In other words, to achieve a comparator like-for-
like compensation analysis, additional analysis is required.
Total target compensation for our CEO is structured to target market competitive pay levels in base salary and short- and
long-term incentive opportunities relative to market pay levels for CEOs in our Comparator Peer Group. Total target
compensation opportunities are set by the Compensation Committee at the beginning of each performance period and are
intended to be forward looking. Because our philosophy places an emphasis on variable pay at risk, and also uses a mix of
cash and stock for performance-based long-term incentives, actual pay results may be above or below the 50th percentile of
our Comparator Peer Group depending on performance.
The chart below compares Mr. Miller’s last five years of total target compensation as approved by the Compensation
Committee to the total target compensation of our two largest peers in the oilfield sector:
2048
As shown above, Mr. Miller's year-over-year increase in target total compensation reflects adjustments made in 2025 to align
his compensation with our philosophy of targeting market median pay levels for our NEOs. Specifically, adjustments were
made to the following pay elements for Mr. Miller:
Base Salary - Increased from $1.65 million to $1.70 million in recognition of his performance and to align his total target
direct compensation with the market median of our Comparator Peer Group.
Short Term Incentive Target - Remained unchanged at 150% of base salary. The increase in STI target compensation
noted above is a result of the increased salary for 2025.
Long Term Incentive (LTI) Target - Increased by $928,000 to align with the market median LTI of our Comparator Peer
Group.
48
HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement
www.halliburton.com
The Compensation Committee also considers the CEO’s performance and accomplishments in the areas of business
development and expansion, management succession, development and retention of management, ethical leadership, and
the achievement of financial and operational objectives. Each year, our CEO and the members of the Board agree upon a
set of objectives addressing the following areas:
Leadership and vision;
Integrity;
Keeping the Board informed on matters affecting Halliburton;
Performance of the business;
Development and implementation of initiatives that provide long-term economic benefits;
Accomplishment of strategic objectives; and
Development of management.
Other NEOs’ compensation is determined similarly by evaluating each NEO’s performance and considering the market
competitive pay levels of the Comparator Peer Group for the NEO’s position. The Compensation Committee also considers
the importance of keeping our management team focused and stable, especially given that other oilfield services companies
have aggressively recruited our NEOs and other executives in the past, with more than thirty former Halliburton executives
departing to become CEOs and/or senior executives of other oilfield services companies.

2025 Performance Overview
Business Highlights
Our success throughout 2025 was a direct result of the hard work and dedication of our employees with relentless focus on
safety, operational execution, customer collaboration, and service quality performance. In 2025, Halliburton delivered solid
results through clear strategy and disciplined execution. We generated $22.2 billion in total company revenue, and we
achieved another year of strong free cash flow through cost and capital discipline. Here are the highlights for 2025:
Financial: Our total revenue decreased 3% in 2025 as compared to 2024. Our international revenue decreased 2% and
our North America revenue decreased 6% in 2025 compared to 2024. Overall, our Completion and Production and Drilling
and Evaluation operating segments finished the year with 17% and 15% operating margins, respectively. We generated
$2.9 billion of cash flows from operations and retired $382 million of our 3.8% notes due November 2025.
Capital efficiency: We developed technologies and made strategic choices that kept our capital expenditures at
approximately 6% of revenue, which matched our target.
Shareholder returns: We returned $1.6 billion of capital to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases, which
is consistent with our capital returns framework.
Sustainability: We continued progress toward a sustainable energy future by expanding Halliburton Labs' 38 participant
and alumni organizations, and achieving the milestone of 50% of our North American fracturing fleet transitioned to Zeus
electric pumps.

During 2025, we generated $2.926 billion of operating cash flow and had $1.254 billion of capital expenditures and $185
million of proceeds from sales of property, plant, and equipment, resulting in $1.857 billion of free cash flow*. This
demonstrates our ability to generate strong free cash flow for our shareholders. We returned approximately $1.6 billion of
capital to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends.
*Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure which is calculated as “Total cash flows provided by operating activities (operating cash flow)”
less “capital expenditures” plus “proceeds from the sale of property, plant, and equipment.” Management considers free cash flow an
important indicator of the company's liquidity, as it helps both investors and management evaluate the business’s ability to generate
cash. See Appendix D for  reconciliation to U.S. GAAP.

Compensation Mix
As illustrated below, the majority of our CEO’s and NEOs’ total direct compensation opportunity is performance-based, at-
risk, and long-term. The following graphs show the mix of total target direct compensation set for our CEO and NEOs for the
2025 plan year. As part of its process, the Compensation Committee makes decisions about target long-term incentive
award opportunities for the following year during its regular December meeting.

90% At-Risk Compensation
74% Long-Term Incentives
1349
83% At-Risk Compensation

Setting Executive Compensation
Role of the Compensation Committee
The Compensation Committee oversees the executive compensation program and has overall responsibility for making final
decisions about total compensation for all of the NEOs, except for the CEO, whose compensation is set by the entire Board
of Directors. As part of its annual process, the Compensation Committee works closely with senior management (as
appropriate) and the Compensation Committee’s independent compensation consultant. This process ensures consistency
from year to year and adherence to the responsibilities listed in the Committee’s Charter, which is available on our website.
The CEO does not provide recommendations concerning his own compensation, nor is he present when his compensation
is discussed by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee, with input from its independent compensation
consultant, discusses the elements of his compensation in executive session and makes a recommendation to all non-
management Directors for discussion and final approval. At the Compensation Committee’s request, a member of
management attends the executive session to answer questions.
The CEO, with input from the Compensation Committee’s independent compensation consultant, assists the Compensation
Committee in setting compensation for the other NEOs.

Use of Independent Consultants and Advisors
The Compensation Committee engaged Pearl Meyer as its independent compensation consultant during 2025. Pearl Meyer
does not provide any other services to us. The primary responsibilities of the independent compensation consultant are to:
Provide independent and objective market data;
Conduct compensation analysis;
Recommend potential changes to the Comparator Peer Group and Performance Peer Group;
Recommend plan design changes;
Advise on risks associated with compensation plans; and
Review and advise on pay programs and pay levels.
These services are provided as requested by the Compensation Committee throughout the year. Based on their review of
our executive compensation program, Pearl Meyer concluded that our compensation plans do not appear to present any
material risks to the Company or its shareholders.
Comparator and Performance Peer Companies
The Compensation Committee uses various market data to examine and set target compensation opportunities for the
NEOs, as well as to determine actual award payouts, to ensure that it provides competitive compensation opportunities and
approves actual compensation outcomes that are aligned with shareholder expectations. In determining appropriate bases
for comparison, the Compensation Committee and its external compensation consultant have considered the fact that we
operate in an industry with very few direct peers of our size and reach. Additionally, many companies of our size and talent
composition operate in industries that lack the cyclicality of our own. As a result, the Compensation Committee has
determined that multiple peer groups should be employed, for specific purposes. We have discussed these peer groups with
our shareholders, who are aware of the peer group construction challenges we face and are supportive of the groups we
have developed. The following provides context for the different peer groups used to support the Compensation Committee’s
process:
Comparator Peer Group — used to determine market levels of total compensation for the 2025 plan year.
Performance Peer Group — used to evaluate Halliburton's relative performance for both ROCE and TSR over a three-year
performance period for determining PUP payouts for the 2025 PUP Cycle. (See "2025 Performance Peer Group" below.)
Philadelphia Oil Service Index (OSX) — used to evaluate Halliburton's relative TSR over a three-year period for determining
the PUP payout for the 2023 PUP Cycle.
2025 Comparator Peer Group
The Compensation Committee regularly assesses the market competitiveness and effectiveness of the Company’s
executive compensation program using a carefully constructed Comparator Peer Group. With support from its independent
compensation consultant, the Compensation Committee conducts a comprehensive, data-driven review of the Comparator
Peer Group each year to confirm that it continues to reflect companies comparable to Halliburton in business model,
operational scale, and global complexity.
The selection process begins with the existing Comparator Peer Group and expands to include potential comparators
identified through institutional investor research, management and Board input, and independent analyses of companies that
compete with Halliburton for business opportunities and leadership talent. The Compensation Committee applies a
structured, multi-factor screening process informed by quantitative and qualitative data. Key considerations include revenue,
market capitalization, number of employees, global impact and reach, operating characteristics, and corporate headquarters
location. These factors are evaluated together to identify companies that share Halliburton’s scale, scope, and operating
profile.
Industry affiliation is also an important consideration, particularly among companies engaged in oil and natural gas
exploration, energy services, and related sectors. However, the Compensation Committee recognizes that many of
Halliburton’s direct industry peers are significantly smaller in size and scope. To ensure a meaningful comparison set, the
Compensation Committee includes strategically relevant companies outside the immediate oilfield services sector that
exhibit comparable operational characteristics, capital intensity, and geographic reach.
The resulting Comparator Peer Group provides a balanced mix of energy and diversified industrial companies that reflect
Halliburton’s global footprint and business complexity, while maintaining sufficient industry relevance for evaluation. With
support from its independent compensation consultant, the Compensation Committee reviews market data from public filings
HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement
57
and third-party compensation databases and adjusts for differences in company size, typically based on revenue, to ensure
appropriate comparability.
The 2025 Comparator Peer Group was composed of the following peer companies within the energy industry, as well as
selected companies representing general industry. The 2025 Comparator Peer Group is unchanged from 2024. This peer
group was utilized to determine market levels of total compensation for the 2025 plan year:
3M Company
Hess Corporation
APA Corporation
Honeywell International Inc.
Baker Hughes Company
Johnson Controls International plc
Caterpillar Inc.
NOV Inc.
ConocoPhillips
Occidental Petroleum Corporation
Deere and Company
SLB N.V.
Emerson Electric Co.
Transocean Ltd.
Fluor Corporation
Weatherford International plc
Because of variances in market capitalization and revenue size among the companies comprising our Comparator Peer
Group, the market data is size adjusted by revenue as necessary so that it is comparable with our trailing 12-month revenue.
These adjusted values are used to compare our executives’ compensation to those of the Comparator Peer Group.
Total compensation for each NEO is structured to target market-competitive pay levels in base salary and short- and long-
term incentive opportunities. We also place an emphasis on variable pay at risk, which enables this compensation structure
to position actual pay above or below the 50th percentile of our Comparator Peer Group depending on performance.
A consistent pre-tax, present value methodology is used in assessing stock-based and other long-term incentive awards.
The independent compensation consultant gathers and performs an analysis of market data for each NEO, comparing each
of their individual components of compensation and total compensation to those of the Comparator Peer Group. This
competitive analysis consists of comparing the market data of each of the pay elements and total compensation at the 25th,
50th, and 75th percentiles of the Comparator Peer Group to current compensation for each NEO.
2025 Performance Peer Group
For determining PUP award payouts, the Compensation Committee compares ROCE on a relative basis over three years to
the results of a performance peer group it selects. The Performance Peer Group used for the PUP is reviewed annually by
the Committee and is comprised of oilfield equipment and services companies and oil and gas contractors. This peer group
is used for the PUP because these companies represent the timing, cyclicality, and volatility of the oil and natural gas
industry and provide an appropriate industry group for measuring our relative performance.
The Compensation Committee, as part of its ongoing oversight, closely monitors industry trends and evaluates how changes
might affect our executive compensation program. The ongoing consolidation in the exploration and production sector has
emerged as a shared priority and a main topic of discussion for both the Compensation Committee and our shareholders.
During our 2024 shareholder outreach meetings, investors highlighted the potential impact of the ongoing consolidation on
the relevance of our Performance Peer Group used for measuring relative performance to determine payouts under our
PUP. While no formal directives were given, these discussions underscored the importance of ensuring our Performance
Peer Group remains relevant and robust in a rapidly evolving business landscape. As such, a new performance peer group
was implemented in 2025 for purposes of evaluating Halliburton's relative performance for both the ROCE and relative TSR
metrics. The new Performance Peer Group is as follows:
Baker Hughes Company
ProFrac Holding Corp.
Expro Group Holdings N.V.
RPC, Inc.
Helix Energy Solutions Group, Inc.
Seadrill Limited
Helmerich & Payne, Inc.
SLB N.V.

HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement

With support from its independent compensation consultant, the Compensation Committee selected and approved the
above-listed companies because they: (1) have similar cyclicality and capital investment structures as Halliburton; (2) are in
oil and natural gas drilling or oil and natural gas equipment and services; (3) have greater than $1.0 billion market
capitalization; and (4) have a U.S. exchange listing. Further consideration was also given to geography, operations, and
size. When we previewed this new Performance Peer Group with investors during our 2024 shareholder outreach meetings,
they were understanding and supportive of this change.
2025 Executive Compensation Outcomes in Detail
Base Salary
The Compensation Committee generally targets base salaries at the median of the Comparator Peer Group. The
Compensation Committee also considers the following factors when setting base salary:
Level of responsibility;
Experience in current role and equitable compensation relationships among internal peers;
Performance and leadership; and
External factors involving competitive positioning, general economic conditions, and marketplace compensation trends.
No specific formula is applied to determine the weight of each factor.
Salary reviews are conducted annually to evaluate each executive. Individual salaries are not necessarily adjusted each
year.
The Compensation Committee reviewed the base salary of each of our NEOs, and upon review of the market data and other
relevant factors, the Compensation Committee made the following adjustments to our NEOs’ base salaries effective January
1, 2025.

$925,000
Mr. Miller’s base salary was increased from $1.65 million to $1.70 million in recognition of his performance and to align his
total target direct compensation with the market median of our Comparator Peer Group.
In connection with his promotion to President - Eastern Hemisphere, Mr. Slocum received a 33% increase to his base salary
effective January 1, 2024. Despite this increase, his salary remained below the market median for this role. Consistent with
its practice of aligning salaries to market over a multi-year period, the Committee increased Mr. Slocum's 2025 base salary
from $800,000 to $925,000 to more closely align his compensation with internal positioning and the market median of the
Comparator Peer Group. 
Short-Term (Annual) Incentive
The Annual Performance Pay Plan is designed to provide executives and other key members of management the
opportunity to earn an annual cash bonus based on the annual performance of the Company. The Annual Performance Pay
Plan places a significant percentage of each NEO’s annual cash compensation at risk and aligns the interests of executives
and shareholders. It is administered in accordance with the terms of the Stock and Incentive Plan.
HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement

2025 Target Award Opportunities
Individual incentive award opportunities are established as a percentage of base salary at the beginning of the plan year
based on market-competitive targets. The maximum award a NEO can receive is limited to two times the target opportunity
level. The level of achievement of annual performance determines the dollar amount of incentive compensation payable to
participants following completion of the plan year. The Compensation Committee set incentive award opportunities under the
plan for 2025, which remained unchanged from 2024 levels for all NEOs:

2025 Plan Structure At-A-Glance
During our extensive shareholder outreach efforts over the years, we heard the importance of directly linking compensation
to demonstrated progress on our strategic priorities through objective and measurable goals. As a result, the structure of the
Annual Performance Pay Plan holds our NEOs accountable for making progress towards and then achieving specific
Financial Metrics, which comprise 80% of the annual plan structure. Additionally, our NEOs are incentivized to drive
progress on business-relevant non-financial metrics that support our long-term strategy. These Non-Financial Strategic
Metrics comprise 20% of the annual plan structure. The 2025 Annual Performance Pay Plan is structured as follows:

2025 Financial Metrics
For 2025, as discussed above, financial performance under the Annual Performance Pay Plan was based on the
achievement of pre-established performance metrics: Net Operating Profit After-Taxes (NOPAT) and Asset Turns. The
Compensation Committee selected these metrics because they are key financial measures upon which we set our
performance expectations for the year and place an increased emphasis on free cash flow and capital discipline, as
preferred by our shareholders.
NOPAT = Net Operating Profit After Taxes

(1)Average Net Assets excludes cash and marketable investments, and current and non-current deferred income tax assets.
(2)Average Net Liabilities excludes current and long-term debt, which includes finance lease liabilities, and non-current deferred income
tax liability.
Adjustments in the calculation of NOPAT and Asset Turns may, at times, be approved by the Compensation Committee and
can include the treatment of unusual items that may have impacted our actual results.
At the beginning of each plan year, the Compensation Committee approves an incentive award schedule that equates levels
of performance with cash reward opportunities. The performance goals range from “Threshold” to “Target” to “Maximum”.
Threshold reflects the minimum performance level that must be achieved for an award to be earned and Maximum reflects
the maximum award that can be earned.
Traditionally, the performance goals are based on our annual operating plan, as reviewed and approved by our Board, and
are set at levels to meet or exceed shareholder expectations of our performance, as well as expectations of our performance
relative to our competitors. Given the cyclical nature of our business, our performance goals vary from year to year,
reflecting goals that are consistently rigorous but also reflective of the commodity price environment in which our industry
operates. The Compensation Committee may also consider other business performance factors that are important to our
investors, including health, safety, environment, and service quality, in determining the final payout amounts under the
Annual Performance Pay Plan.

2025 Non-Financial Strategic Metrics
The 2025 metrics for the Annual Performance Pay Plan include Non-Financial Strategic Metrics focused on two categories:
sustainability (specifically greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction performance) and our people. The Compensation
Committee selected these categories and their respective metrics and goals at the beginning of the year to intentionally
reflect the Company’s strategy and perspective: the sustainability of our business, the reduction in environmental impacts,
and the enhancement of the economic and social well-being of our employees and the communities in which we live and
work are critical to our success. As such, each goal is also aligned with and measured against key principles designed to
guide the NEOs’ decisions and actions throughout the year.
The Non-Financial Strategic Metrics are binary and limited to a Target award. Award opportunities for each category are 5%
or 10% depending on the number of goals met. The specific metrics, weights and goals in each category that were approved
by the Board for 2025, as well as the actual achievement results, are outlined below:

Long-Term Incentives
The Stock and Incentive Plan is designed to reward consistent achievement of value creation and operating performance
goals, align management with shareholder interests, and encourage long-term planning and commitment. Long-term
incentives represent the largest component of total executive compensation opportunity.
Using a mix of incentive vehicles allows us to provide a diversified yet balanced long-term incentive program that effectively
addresses volatility in our industry and in the stock market, in addition to incentivizing our management to meet performance
goals. For the 2025 plan year, the Compensation Committee used the following combination of equity vehicles for long-term
incentive grants:
Vehicle
Weighting
Purpose
Performance Units(1)
70% of Award
Rewards achievement of specific financial goals measured over a
three-year performance period
Restricted Stock(2)
30% of Award
Supports leadership retention/stability objectives; five-year vesting
period
(1)Performance units vest upon achievement of specific financial goals measured over a three-year performance period and are
denominated 50% in cash and 50% in stock. Dividend equivalents are measured and vest based on the same performance conditions
as the units denominated in stock. Accrued dividend equivalents that vest are paid out in cash.
(2)Restricted stock grants are generally subject to a graded vesting schedule of 20% per year over five years. However, different vesting
schedules may be utilized at the discretion of the Compensation Committee. Shares of restricted stock receive dividends.
Individual Incentive Opportunities
In determining the size of long-term incentive awards, the Compensation Committee first considers market data for
comparable positions and then may adjust the awards upwards or downwards based on the Compensation Committee’s
review of internal equity. This can result in positions of similar scope receiving awards of varying size. Awards are targeted to
the market median. Mr. Miller's 2025 long-term incentive award was aligned with the market median of our Comparator Peer
Group.
As part of its process, the Compensation Committee reviews and makes decisions about target long-term incentive award
opportunities for the following year during its regular December meeting. Stock grants are then determined by dividing the
grant value by the average of the closing price of our common stock on the NYSE on each business day during the month of
December. The Compensation Committee reviews the final stock grant calculations again in January and determines final
approval. For the 2025 plan year, the Compensation Committee approved restricted stock and performance share grants in
January 2025.
Individual incentive opportunities are established based on market references and the NEO’s role within the organization. In
the Grants of Plan-Based Awards in Fiscal 2025 table, the Threshold, Target, and Maximum columns under the heading
Estimated Future Payouts Under Non-Equity Incentive Plan Awards indicate the potential cash payout for each NEO under
the 2025 PUP cycle, and the Threshold, Target, and Maximum columns under the heading Estimated Future Payouts Under
Equity Incentive Plan Awards indicate the potential shares that can be earned by each NEO for the 2025 PUP cycle. The
potential payouts are performance driven and completely at risk. Actual payouts and shares vesting, if any, will not be
determined until the three-year cycle closes on December 31, 2027.
A Closer Look at the Performance Unit Program
The PUP provides NEOs and other selected executives with incentive opportunities based on our consolidated ROCE
during a three-year performance period. This program reinforces our objectives for sustained long-term performance and
value creation. It also reinforces strategic planning processes and balances short-and long-term decision making.
The program measures ROCE on a relative basis to the results of a performance peer group over three years. The 2025 
Performance Peer Group used for the PUP is comprised of oilfield equipment and services companies and oil and gas
contractors. This peer group is used for the PUP because these companies represent the timing, cyclicality, and volatility of
the oil and natural gas industry and provide an appropriate industry group for measuring our relative performance. The 2025
Performance Peer Group is listed on page 57 of this CD&A.
HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement
63
The three-year performance period aligns this measurement with our and our Performance Peer Group’s business cycles.
ROCE indicates the efficiency and profitability of our capital investments and is determined based on the ratio of earnings
divided by average capital employed. The calculation is as follows:
 
ROCE
=
Net income
+
After-tax interest expense
Shareholders’ equity (average
of beginning and end of period)
+
Debt (average of beginning
and end of period)
 
Why ROCE?
 
Picture4.jpg
Highly correlated to stock price performance over the
long-term, applying drivers that management can
directly influence.
Picture4.jpg
Strong support from our shareholders.
Picture4.jpg
Aligned with our strategy of delivering industry-
leading returns across the business cycle.

Provides our management team with a clear line of
sight to long-term financial results.
Consistent with our executive compensation objectives and strategy to deliver leading returns in our industry, over the past
ten years we delivered superior ROCE performance relative to our two largest competitors, and our Performance Peer
Group. We believe that this long-term focus on generating superior returns within our industry also correlates with our
industry TSR outperformance over the same period of time.
2023 PUP Cycle
Performance Matrix
At the end of the three-year award cycle, the average ROCE of Halliburton and the Performance Peer Group will be
calculated, and performance percentiles will be determined. Target performance for relative ROCE is set at the 55th
percentile of the Performance Peer Group. Additionally, payout of the primary metric (relative ROCE) is capped at target
when average Halliburton ROCE for the applicable three-year performance period is negative. If Halliburton’s relative
performance ranking is between the 25th and 75th percentiles, the payout will be interpolated accordingly. If Halliburton’s
relative performance ranking is below the 25th percentile, there will not be a payout.
The PUP also uses a relative TSR modifier that compares three-year performance against the constituents of the OSX and
can increase or decrease the incentive opportunity payout by 25%, which adds a long-term performance component to the
PUP directly linked to stock price. For purposes of calculating TSR used in the modifier, a one-month averaging period is
used beginning with the month preceding the performance period and ending with the last month of the performance period.
The modifier imposes an award penalty for bottom quartile performance and an incentive for top quartile performance. If the
TSR is in the upper quartile but negative, the TSR modifier will not apply.

(1)If Halliburton’s relative ROCE performance ranking is between the 25th and 75th percentiles, the payout will be interpolated accordingly.
(2)If Halliburton's relative ROCE three-year average is negative, the payout will be capped at the target level. The TSR modifier still
applies
(3)If TSR is in the upper quartile but negative, the TSR modifier will not apply.
Any awards earned at the end of the cycle will be issued 50% in stock and 50% in cash.
2023 PUP Cycle Results
The incentive opportunity set for our NEOs for the 2023 PUP cycle was based on Halliburton’s ROCE performance relative
to that of our Performance Peer Group for the three-year period ended December 31, 2025. For this cycle, we achieved
ROCE of 14.36% which was above the 55th percentile and below the 75th percentile of our Performance Peer Group’s
ROCE of 12.20% and 15.70%, respectively, yielding an unadjusted incentive payout of 161.71% of the target opportunity
level. For the three-year period ended December 31, 2025, we achieved TSR of -18.92%, which was in the bottom quartile
relative to the OSX and resulted in a 25% reduction in the payout, yielding a total payout of 121.28% of the target
opportunity. For purposes of calculating TSR, Halliburton Company is excluded from the peer group, dividends are
reinvested on the ex-dividend date, and a one-month averaging period is used beginning with the calendar month preceding
the beginning of the performance period and ending with the last calendar month of the performance period. The 2023 PUP
Cycle will be paid 50% in cash and 50% in stock. Dividend equivalents are measured and vest based on the same
performance conditions as the units denominated in stock. Dividend equivalents are paid in cash.
The NEOs received cash payments as set forth in the Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation column in the Summary
Compensation Table. The equity payment is reported in the 2025 Option Exercises and Stock Vested Table.
2025 PUP Cycle
Performance Matrix
Target performance for relative ROCE is set at the 55th percentile of the Performance Peer Group. Additionally, payouts of
the primary metrics (relative ROCE) are capped at target when average Halliburton ROCE for the applicable three-year
performance period is negative. The performance matrix for the 2025 PUP cycle is the same as the performance matrix for
the 2023 PUP cycle as outlined above.
Other Executive Benefits and Policies
Stock Ownership Requirements
We have stock ownership requirements for our executive officers, which include all NEOs, to further align their interests with
our shareholders.
Our CEO is required to own Halliburton common stock in an amount equal to or in excess of six times his annual base
salary. Executive officers that report directly to the CEO are required to own Halliburton common stock equal to or in excess
of three times their annual base salary, and all other executive officers are required to own Halliburton common stock in an
HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement
65
amount equal to or in excess of two times their annual base salary. The Compensation Committee reviews their holdings,
which include restricted shares, SEUs, RSUs, and all other Halliburton common stock owned by the officer, at each
December meeting. Each executive officer has five years to meet the requirements, measured from the date the officer
becomes subject to the ownership level for the applicable office.
After the five-year stock ownership period described above, executive officers who have not met their minimum ownership
requirement must retain 100% of the net shares acquired upon restricted stock vesting until they achieve their required
ownership level. Also, any stock option exercise must be an exercise and hold.
As of December 31, 2025, all NEOs met the requirements.
Policies and Practices Related to the Grant of Certain Equity Awards
Equity awards granted to executive officers and other employees consist of restricted stock, restricted stock units, and
performance-based awards. These awards are generally approved by the Compensation Committee during its regularly
scheduled meetings, with award values established based on market data and internal compensation considerations, and
the number of shares determined using an average closing price methodology over a defined period.
The Compensation Committee does not grant equity awards in anticipation of the release of material nonpublic information,
does not time the release of material nonpublic information based on equity award grant dates, and does not consider
material nonpublic information when determining the timing, terms, or value of equity awards.
Since 2020, the Compensation Committee has not used stock options or stock appreciation rights as a component of
executive or other employee compensation, and accordingly, the Company does not maintain a formal policy governing the
timing of stock options or stock appreciation right grants.
Clawback Policy
We have a clawback policy, as required by the SEC and NYSE, under which we will seek to recoup incentive-based
compensation received by any of our current or former executive officers, which includes all NEOs, if and to the extent that
the Company is required to prepare an applicable accounting restatement. The recovery period includes the three
completed fiscal years immediately preceding the restatement date and any transition period (resulting from a change in the
Company’s fiscal year) of less than nine months within or immediately following those completed fiscal years. Incentive-
based compensation includes any compensation granted, earned, or vested based wholly or in part on the attainment of a
financial reporting measure, and the amount recoverable will be the difference between what was received by the executive
officer and what should have been received if it had been determined based on the restatement amounts, computed without
regard to any taxes paid.
The Board shall determine any restatement date and the Chief Financial Officer shall, with the approval of the
Compensation Committee, calculate the recoverable compensation for each affected executive officer. The Compensation
Committee shall determine the method of recovering any recoverable compensation, so long as it complies with Section
303A.14 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. The Compensation Committee shall interpret and construe the policy and
make any determinations required to be made in recovering the recoverable compensation.
The Company shall not indemnify any current or former executive officer against the loss of recoverable compensation and
shall not pay or reimburse any current or former executive officer for premiums for any insurance policy to fund such
executive officer’s potential recovery obligations. No restatements have occurred during the last fiscal year. A copy of the
policy was filed as an exhibit to the 2024 Form 10-K.
In addition, during 2024, the Company adopted a new supplemental recoupment policy under which we may seek, in
appropriate cases, to recoup incentive-based compensation, including both time- and performance-vesting awards paid to,
awarded to, or credited for the benefit of any of our executive officers, which includes all NEOs, if and to the extent that they
breached their fiduciary duty through a knowing or reckless material violation of law, breached the Code of Business
Conduct in a matter that results in, or could reasonably expect to result in, material, reputational, or financial harm to the
Company, or had direct supervisory authority over an employee who participated in such violation and such officer
disregarded their own supervisory responsibilities. We may also recoup incentive-based compensation if an officer is named
as a defendant for the actions described above, and we either determine that the action is not indemnifiable or the officer
does not prevail at trial.
The disinterested members of the Board and the disinterested members of the Compensation Committee and the
Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may be involved in reviewing, considering, and making determinations
regarding the officer’s alleged conduct, whether recoupment is appropriate or required, and the type and amount of incentive
compensation to be recouped from the officer. There was no recoupment under the supplemental policy in 2025.

HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement

Hedging and Pledging Policy
We have a policy under which our Directors and executive officers, which includes all NEOs, and certain senior officers are
prohibited from:
hedging activities related to Halliburton securities; and
the pledging of Halliburton securities.
The policy defines hedging activities as the use of any financial instrument designed to hedge or offset a change in the
market value of any Halliburton security and defines pledging as the use of a Halliburton security or any related derivative
security as collateral for any form of indebtedness.
Additionally, the policy:
discourages all employees and Directors from speculative activities in Halliburton securities and related derivative
securities, such as puts or call options;
applies to all Halliburton securities, including restricted stock, restricted stock units, options, and debt securities, which are
issued by any Halliburton entity, and any other security directly or indirectly exercisable for or convertible or exchangeable
into any Halliburton security; and
applies regardless of whether or not the securities were acquired from our equity compensation plans.
Retirement and Savings Plan
All NEOs may participate in the Halliburton Retirement and Savings Plan, which is the defined contribution benefit plan
available to all eligible U.S. employees. The matching contribution amounts we contributed on behalf of each NEO are
included in the Supplemental Table: All Other Compensation.
Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan
The objective of the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP) is to provide a competitive level of pay replacement
upon retirement. The current pay replacement target is 75% of base salary at age 65 with 25 years of service, using the
highest annual salary during the last three years of employment.
The material factors and guidelines considered in making an allocation include: (i) retirement benefits provided, both
qualified and nonqualified; (ii) current compensation; (iii) length of service; and (iv) years of service to normal retirement.
The calculation takes into account the following variables: (i) base salary; (ii) years of service; (iii) age; (iv) employer portion
of qualified plan savings; (v) age 65 value of any defined benefit plan; and (vi) existing nonqualified plan balances and any
other retirement plans.
Several assumptions are made annually and include a base salary increase percentage, qualified and nonqualified plan
contributions and investment earnings, and an annuity rate. These factors are reviewed and approved annually by the
Compensation Committee in advance of calculating any awards.
To determine the annual benefit, external actuaries calculate the total lump sum retirement benefit needed at age 65 from all
company retirement sources to produce an annual retirement benefit of 75% of the highest annual salary during the last
three years of employment. Company retirement sources include any Company contributions to qualified benefit plans and
contributions to nonqualified benefit plans. If the combination of these two sources does not yield a total retirement balance
that will meet the 75% objective, then contributions may be made annually through the SERP to bring the total benefit up to
the targeted level.
To illustrate, assume $10 million is needed at age 65 to produce an annual retirement benefit equal to 75% of base salary.
The participant is projected to have $3 million in qualified benefit plans resulting from Company contributions at retirement
and $4 million in nonqualified retirement plans resulting from Company contributions at retirement. Since the total of these
two sources is $7 million, a shortfall of $3 million results. This is the amount needed to achieve the 75% pay replacement
objective. This shortfall may be offset through annual contributions to the SERP.
Participation in the SERP is limited to the direct reports of the CEO and other selected executives as recommended by the
CEO and approved at the discretion of the Compensation Committee. However, participation one year does not guarantee
future participation. In 2025, the Compensation Committee authorized retirement allocations under the SERP to all NEOs.
Amounts allocated during 2025 are listed in the Supplemental Table: All Other Compensation and the 2025 Nonqualified
Deferred Compensation table.
All of the NEOs, except Mr. Beckwith, are fully vested in their respective account balances. Balances for active and
terminated participants earn interest at an annual rate of 5% and 10%, respectively.
HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement
67
Elective Deferral Plan
All NEOs may participate in the Halliburton Elective Deferral Plan, which was established to provide highly compensated
employees with an opportunity to defer earned base salary and incentive compensation to help meet retirement and other
future income needs.
Participants may elect to defer up to 75% of their annual base salary and up to 75% of their incentive compensation into the
plan. Deferral elections must be made on an annual basis, including the type and timing of distribution. Plan earnings are
based on the NEO’s choice of up to 12 investment options with varying degrees of risk, including the risk of loss. Investment
options may be changed by the NEO daily.
In 2025, none of our NEOs elected to defer compensation under this plan. Messrs. Richard and Slocum have account
balances from deferral elections under the plan in prior years. Messrs. Miller, Carre, and Beckwith have not made any
deferral elections under the plan. Further details can be found in the 2025 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table.
Benefit Restoration Plan
The Halliburton Company Benefit Restoration Plan provides a vehicle to restore qualified plan benefits that are reduced as a
result of limitations on contributions imposed under the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) or due to participation in other plans
we sponsor and to defer compensation that would otherwise be treated as excessive remuneration within the meaning of
IRC Section 162(m). Awards are made annually to those who meet these criteria and earn interest at an annual rate as
defined by the plan document. Awards and corresponding interest balances are 100% vested and distributed upon
separation.
In accordance with the plan document, participants earn monthly interest at the Internal Revenue Service Monthly Long-
Term 120% AFR rate, provided the interest rate shall be no less than 6% per annum and no greater than 10% per annum.
Because the 120% Monthly AFR rate was below the 6% minimum interest threshold, plan participants earned interest at an
annual rate of 6% in 2025.
In 2025, all NEOs received awards under this plan in the amounts included in the Supplemental Table: All Other
Compensation and the 2025 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table.
Perquisites
We do not pay for tax gross ups for personal use of corporate aircraft, executive physical examinations, financial planning,
or country club dues for our NEOs. We do not provide cars to our NEOs. However, a car and part-time driver is available for
Mr. Miller’s limited use as needed for security purposes and so that he can work while in transit to meet customers or attend
business-related functions.
We provided security at the personal residences of Mr. Miller during 2025.
As a result of the recommendations provided by an independent, third-party security consultant, the Board has determined
that Mr. Miller must use company aircraft for all travel. The security study also recommends that his spouse and children use
company-provided aircraft.
Specific amounts for the only available perquisites are detailed in the Supplemental Table: All Other Compensation.
Elements of Post-Termination Compensation and Benefits
Termination events that trigger payments and benefits include normal or early retirement, cause, death, disability, and
voluntary termination. Post-termination or change-in-control payments with qualifying termination may include severance,
accelerated vesting of restricted stock and stock options, payments under cash-based short- and long-term incentive plans,
share vesting under the long-term incentive plan, payout of nonqualified account balances, and health benefits, among
others. The impact of various events on each element of compensation for the NEOs is detailed in the Post-Termination or
Change-In-Control Payment table.

HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement
www.halliburton.com
Impact of Regulatory Requirements on Compensation
IRC Section 162(m) generally disallows a tax deduction to public companies for compensation paid to the CEO, CFO, or any
of the three other most highly compensated officers (“covered employees”) to the extent the compensation exceeds $1
million in any year. Effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017, Section 162(m) has been revised to eliminate
the performance-based compensation exception and to provide that an individual who is a covered employee for 2017 or
any later tax year will continue to be a covered employee for all subsequent taxable years, including years after the death of
the individual.
Although the tax deductibility of compensation is a consideration evaluated by our Compensation Committee, the Committee
believes that the elimination of the deduction on compensation payable in excess of the $1 million limitation for our NEOs is
not material relative to the benefit of being able to attract and retain talented management. Accordingly, our Compensation
Committee will continue to pay compensation that is not deductible.

Salary. The amounts in the Salary column reflect the salary earned by each NEO.
Stock Awards. The amounts in the Stock Awards column reflect the aggregate grant date fair value of the restricted stock
and performance shares awarded in 2025. Each amount reflects an accounting expense and does not correspond to actual
value that may be realized by a NEO in the future. Except where there is a distinction to make between the two types of
awards, this proxy statement refers to both restricted stock and restricted stock units as “restricted stock.” We calculate the
fair value of restricted stock awards by multiplying the number of restricted shares or restricted stock units granted by the
closing stock price on the grant date. For the performance shares, a Monte Carlo simulation that uses a probabilistic
approach was performed by an actuary to determine grant date fair value. The NEOs may never realize any value from
these performance shares and, to the extent that they do, the amounts realized may be different than the amounts reported
above.
Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation. The Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation column reflects amounts earned
in 2025 for the 2025 Halliburton Annual Performance Pay Plan and the award amount payable in cash for the 2023 PUP
cycle.
The 2025 Halliburton Annual Performance Pay Plan amounts paid to each NEO are: $1,657,500 for Mr. Miller; $617,500 for
Mr. Carre; $565,500 for Mr. Beckwith; $715,000 for Mr. Richard; and $661,375 for Mr. Slocum.
The 2023 PUP cycle amounts paid to each NEO are: $4,287,336 for Mr. Miller; $1,197,483 for Mr. Carre; $1,197,483 for
Mr. Beckwith; $1,561,694 for Mr. Richard; and $327,463 for Mr. Slocum. The amounts paid to the NEOs for the 2023 PUP
cycle differ from what is shown in the Grants of Plan-Based Awards in Fiscal Year 2025 table under Estimated Future
Payments Under Non-Equity Incentive Plan Awards. That table indicates the potential award amounts payable in cash under
the 2025 PUP cycle, which will close on December 31, 2027.
Change in Pension Value and NQDC Earnings. The amounts in the Change in Pension Value and NQDC Earnings
column are attributable to the above-market earnings for various nonqualified plans. The methodology for determining what
constitutes above-market earnings is the difference between the interest rate as stated in the applicable nonqualified plan

document and the Internal Revenue Service Annual Long-Term 120% AFR rate as of December 31, 2025. The 120% Annual
AFR rate used for determining above-market earnings in 2025 was 5.47%.
Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan Above-Market Earnings. The current interest rate for active participant accounts in
the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan is 5% as defined by the plan document. Because the 120% Annual AFR rate of
5.47% is above the interest rate earned by participants, there were no above-market earnings for the Supplemental
Executive Retirement Plan for 2025.
Benefit Restoration Plan Above-Market Earnings. In accordance with the plan document, participants earn monthly interest
at the Internal Revenue Service Monthly Long-Term 120% AFR rate, provided the interest rate shall be no less than 6% per
annum and no more than 10% per annum. Because the 120% Annual AFR rate was below the 6% minimum interest
threshold, the above-market earnings associated with this plan were 0.53% (6% minus 5.47%) for 2025.
NEOs earned above-market earnings for their balances associated with the plan as follows: $6,562 for Mr. Miller; $2,951 for
Mr. Carre; $860 for Mr. Beckwith; $2,282 for Mr. Richard; and $654 for Mr. Slocum.
Elective Deferral Plan Above-Market Earnings. The average NEO earnings for the balances associated with the Elective
Deferral Plan were 15.50% for 2025. The above-market earnings associated with this plan equaled 10.03% (15.50% minus
5.47%) for 2025.
NEOs earned above-market earnings for their balances associated with the plan as follows: $75,293 for Mr. Richard; and
$97,744 for Mr. Slocum.
The amounts shown in this column differ from the amounts shown for the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, the
Benefit Restoration Plan, and the Elective Deferral Plan in the 2025 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table under the
Aggregate Earnings in Last Fiscal Year column because that table includes all earnings and losses, and the Summary
Compensation Table shows above-market earnings only.

Halliburton Foundation. The Halliburton Foundation allows NEOs and other employees to donate to accredited colleges
and universities, qualified medical institutions and K-12 educational institutions. In 2025, the Halliburton Foundation matched
donations up to $20,500 on a 2.25 for 1 basis, with $20,000 available for accredited colleges and universities and qualified
medical institutions, and $500 available for K-12 educational institutions. Mr. Miller participated in the Halliburton
Foundation’s matching program for Directors, which allows 2025 contributions up to $50,500 to qualified organizations to be
matched on a 2.25 for 1 basis, with $50,000 available for accredited colleges and universities and qualified medical
institutions, and $500 available for K-12 educational institutions. To learn more about Halliburton charitable giving and
matching opportunities, refer to page 36.
Halliburton Giving Choices. The Halliburton Giving Choices Program allows NEOs and other employees to donate to
approved not-for-profit charities of their choice. We match donations by contributing ten cents for every dollar contributed by
employees. The amounts shown represent the match amounts the program donated to charities on behalf of the NEOs in
2025. To learn more about Halliburton charitable giving and matching opportunities, refer to page 36.

Halliburton Political Action Committee. HALPAC allows NEOs and other eligible employees to donate to political
candidates and participate in the political process. We match NEO and other employee donations that are greater than $100
annually to HALPAC dollar-for-dollar to a 501(c)(3) status nonprofit organization of the contributor’s choice. The amounts
shown represent the match amounts donated to charities on behalf of the NEOs in 2025.
Restricted Stock Dividends. This is the amount of dividends paid on restricted stock held by NEOs in 2025. Restricted
stock units granted to employees do not receive dividend payments.
Retirement and Savings Plan Employer Match. This is the matching contribution we made on behalf of each NEO to the
Halliburton Retirement and Savings Plan, our defined contribution plan. We match employee contributions up to 5% of each
employee’s eligible base salary up to the 401(a)(17) compensation limit of $350,000 in 2025.
Retirement and Savings Plan Basic Contribution. This is the basic contribution we made on behalf of each NEO to the
Retirement and Savings Plan. If actively employed on December 31, 2025, or if they meet retirement eligibility requirements
of the plan as of their separation date, each employee received a contribution equal to 3% of their eligible base pay up to the
401(a)(17) compensation limit of $350,000 in 2025.
Benefit Restoration Plan. This is the award earned under the Benefit Restoration Plan in 2025 as discussed in the Benefit
Restoration Plan section of Compensation Discussion and Analysis. Associated interest, awards, and beginning and ending
balances for the Benefit Restoration Plan are included in the 2025 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table.
Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan. This is the award approved under the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan
in 2025 as discussed in the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan section of Compensation Discussion and Analysis.
Associated interest, awards, and beginning and ending balances for the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan are
included in the 2025 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table.
Expatriate Assignment. In 2025, Mr. Slocum received compensation associated with his expatriate assignment similar in
type to that received by other expatriates on comparable assignments. Mr. Slocum received $79,198 for cost-of-living
adjustment; $92,500 for mobility premium; $968,717 for tax equalization; $302,493 for housing allowance; $13,069 for auto
allowance; $15,935 for dependent education; and $360 for miscellaneous reimbursement.
All Other.
As a result of the recommendations provided by an independent, third-party security consultant, the Board has determined
that Mr. Miller must use company aircraft for all travel. The security study also recommends that his spouse and children use
company-provided aircraft. For 2025, the incremental cost to us for this personal use of our aircraft was $155,662 for Mr.
Miller. For total compensation purposes in 2025, we valued the incremental cost of the personal use of aircraft using a
method that takes into account: landing, parking, hanger, flight planning services, and dead-head costs; crew travel
expenses; supplies and catering; aircraft fuel and oil expenses per hour of flight; any customs, foreign permit, and similar
fees; and passenger ground transportation. NEOs are not reimbursed for the tax impact of any imputed income resulting
from aircraft usage. The remaining All Other compensation for Mr. Miller includes home security based on risk assessments
and a car and part-time driver for Mr. Miller’s limited use as needed for security purposes and to work in transit to meet
customers or attend business-related functions.

five years. All restricted shares are priced at fair market value on the date of grant. Quarterly dividends are paid on the
restricted shares at the same time and rate payable on our common stock, which was $0.17 per share during each quarter
of 2025. The shares may not be sold or transferred until fully vested. The shares remain subject to forfeiture during the
restricted period in the event of the NEO’s termination of employment or an unapproved early retirement.
HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement

The performance share grants awarded to the NEOs during 2025 are subject to a three-year performance period. All
performance shares are priced at fair market value on the date of grant. Quarterly dividends will not be paid during the
performance period but shall be accrued and paid in cash at the time, and to the extent, the grants vest and the underlying
shares of Company common stock are delivered.
Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End 2025
The following table represents outstanding stock option, restricted stock, and performance share awards for our NEOs as of
December 31, 2025. The market value of shares or units of stock not vested was determined by multiplying the number of
unvested restricted shares at year end by the closing price of our common stock on the NYSE of $28.26 on December 31,
2025.

The value realized for vested restricted stock awards was determined by multiplying the fair market value of the shares
(closing price of our common stock on the NYSE on the vesting date) by the number of shares that vested. Restricted
shares vested on various dates throughout the year. The value listed represents the aggregate value of all shares that
vested for each NEO in 2025.
The value realized for vested performance shares awards was determined by multiplying the fair market value of the shares
(closing price of our common stock on the NYSE on December 31, 2025) by the number of shares that vested.
2025 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation
The 2025 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table reflects balances in our nonqualified plans as of January 1, 2025,
contributions made by the NEOs and us during 2025, earnings (the net of the gains and losses on funds, as applicable),
distributions, and the ending balance as of December 31, 2025. The plans are described in Compensation Discussion and

2026 Proxy Statement

Employment Contracts and Change-in-Control
Arrangements
Employment Contracts
Each of our NEOs has an employment agreement with us that contains substantial non-compete and non-solicitation
provisions that apply post-separation.
Each employment agreement provides that if the agreement is terminated by the NEO for good reason or by death,
disability, or retirement or his employment is terminated by the Company for any reason other than cause or a fiduciary
violation, all restrictions on restricted stock and units will lapse. In addition, in the case of a termination by the NEO for good
reason or termination by the Company for any reason other than cause or a fiduciary violation, the NEO will receive a lump
sum cash payment equal to two years of base salary. These payments and benefits are subject to the NEO's execution of a
release of claims in favor of the Company.
Change-in-Control Arrangements
We do not maintain individual change-in-control agreements or provide for excise tax gross-ups on any payments
associated with a change-in-control. Some of our compensation plans, however, contain change-in-control provisions, which
could result in payment of specific benefits.
Under the Stock and Incentive Plan, in the event of a change-in-control, awards are subject to double-trigger vesting, such
that, if a participant is terminated due to involuntary termination without cause, death, disability, good reason (as defined in
an employment agreement, or a similar constructive termination event, in each case, only if a severance benefit is payable
upon termination of employment due to such event pursuant to an employment agreement), or other event as specified in
the participant’s award document within the period beginning on the date of the public announcement of a transaction that, if
consummated, would constitute a change-in-control and ending on the date that is the earlier of the announcement of the
termination of the proposed transaction or two years after the consummation of the transaction (a Qualifying Termination),
the following will occur automatically:
any outstanding options and stock appreciation rights shall become immediately vested and fully exercisable for the full
term thereof;
any restrictions on restricted stock awards shall immediately lapse;
all performance measures upon which an outstanding performance award is contingent are deemed achieved and the
holder shall receive a payment equal to the target amount of the award he or she would have been entitled to receive; and
any outstanding cash awards, including stock value equivalent awards, immediately vest and are paid based on the
vested value of the award.
Under the Annual Performance Pay Plan:
in the event of a change-in-control during a plan year, a participant experiencing a Qualifying Termination will be entitled to
payment equal to the target amount of the award he or she would have been entitled to receive, without proration; and
in the event of a change-in-control after the end of a plan year but before the payment date, a participant will be entitled to
an immediate cash payment equal to the incentive earned for the plan year.
Under the Performance Unit Program:
in the event of a change-in-control during a performance cycle, a participant experiencing a Qualifying Termination will be
entitled to both a payment equal to the target amount of the cash award he or she would have been entitled to receive and
the vesting of the target amount of performance shares awarded, without proration; and
in the event of a change-in-control after the end of a performance cycle but before the payment date, a participant will be
entitled to an immediate payment equal to the cash award earned and the vesting of performance shares earned for that
performance cycle.
Under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, in the event of a change-in-control, unless the successor corporation assumes or
substitutes new stock purchase rights:
the purchase date for the outstanding stock purchase rights will be accelerated to a date fixed by the Compensation
Committee prior to the effective date of the change-in-control; and
upon such effective date, any unexercised stock purchase rights will expire and we will refund to each participant the
amount of his or her payroll deductions made for purposes of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan that have not yet been
used to purchase stock.

Early Retirement With Approval or Normal Retirement
Early Retirement. A NEO becomes eligible for early retirement when the NEO has attained age 55 with ten years of service
or when the NEO’s age and years of service equals 70. Eligibility for early retirement does not guarantee retention of stock
awards (lapse of forfeiture restrictions on restricted stock and ability to exercise outstanding options for the remainder of the
stated term) or the pro rata distribution of performance awards, if earned. Early retirement eligibility is a condition that must
be met before the Compensation Committee will consider retention of stock awards and pro rata participation in
performance awards upon separation from employment. For example, if a NEO is eligible for early retirement but is leaving
us to go to work for a competitor, then the NEO’s stock awards would not be considered for retention.
Normal Retirement. A NEO becomes eligible for normal retirement at age 65 and, under our mandatory retirement policy,
must retire by the last day of the calendar year in which they reach that age.
The following actions will occur for the NEO’s various elements of compensation under Early Retirement with Approval or
Normal Retirement scenarios.
Severance Pay. No severance would be paid to the NEO.
Annual Performance Pay Plan. If the NEO retires prior to the end of the plan year for any reason other than death or
disability, the NEO would forfeit any payment due under the plan, unless the Compensation Committee determines that
the payment should be prorated for the partial plan year.
Restricted Stock. Any stock holdings restrictions would lapse upon the date of retirement. Restricted stock holdings
information can be found in the Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End 2025 table.
Stock Options. The NEO will be granted retention of the NEO’s option awards. The unvested awards will continue to vest
per the vesting schedule outlined in the NEO stock option agreements and any vested options will not expire until ten
years from the grant award date. Stock option information can be found in the Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year
End 2025 table.
Performance Cash. The NEO will participate on a prorated basis for any PUP cycles that have not been completed at the
time of the NEO’s retirement. These payments, if earned, are paid out and the NEO would receive payments at the same
time as other participants, which is usually no later than March of the year following the close of the cycle. In the case of
mandatory retirement, the Compensation Committee may, at its discretion, authorize full participation without proration for
any PUP cycles that have not been completed as of the NEO's retirement date.
Performance Shares. The NEO will participate on a prorated basis for any PUP cycles that have not been completed at
the time of the NEO’s retirement. The shares, if earned, are vested and the NEO would receive the performance shares at
the same time as other participants, which is usually no later than March of the year following the close of the cycle. In the
case of mandatory retirement, the Compensation Committee may, at its discretion, authorize full participation without
proration for any PUP cycles that have not been completed as of the NEO's retirement date.
Nonqualified Plans. The NEO is entitled to any vested benefits under the applicable nonqualified plans as shown in the
2025 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table. Payments from the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan and
Benefit Restoration Plan are paid out of an irrevocable grantor trust. The principal and income of the trust are treated as
our assets and income for federal income tax purposes and are subject to the claims of our general creditors to the extent
provided in the plan. The Elective Deferral Plan is unfunded and we make payments from our general assets. Payments
from these plans may be paid in a lump sum or in annual installments for a maximum ten-year period.
Resignation, Early Retirement Without Approval, or Termination for Cause
Resignation. Resignation is defined as leaving employment with us voluntarily, without having attained early or normal
retirement status (see the applicable sections above for information on what constitutes these statuses).
Early Retirement (Without Approval). Early Retirement is defined as leaving employment with us voluntarily, having
attained early retirement status (see the applicable sections above for information on what constitutes this status). For
example, if a NEO is eligible for early retirement, but leaves the Company to go to work for a competitor, their Early
Retirement generally would not be approved.
Termination (For Cause). A termination for Cause would occur for a reason such as violating our Code of Business
Conduct.
HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement
79
The following actions will occur for the NEO's various elements of compensation under Resignation, Early Retirement
Without Approval, or Termination for Cause scenarios.
Severance Pay. No severance would be paid to the NEO.
Annual Performance Pay Plan. No payment would be made to the NEO under the Annual Performance Pay Plan.
Restricted Stock. Any restricted stock holdings would be forfeited upon the date of separation. Restricted stock holdings
information can be found in the Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End 2025 table.
Stock Options. The NEO must exercise outstanding, vested options within 90 days after the NEO’s separation or the
options will be forfeited as per the terms of the stock option agreements. Any unvested stock options would be forfeited.
Stock option information can be found in the Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End 2025 table.
Performance Cash. The NEO would not be eligible to receive payments under the Performance Unit Program.
Performance Shares. The NEO would not be eligible to receive performance shares under the Performance Unit Program.
Nonqualified Plans. The NEO would be entitled to any vested benefits under the applicable nonqualified plans as shown in
the 2025 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table. Refer above to Early Retirement with Approval or Normal Retirement
for more information on Nonqualified Plans.
Termination (Without Cause). Should we terminate a NEO without cause, such as termination at our convenience, then
the provisions of the NEO’s employment agreement related to severance payments and lapsing of stock restrictions would
apply. Payments for these items are conditioned on a release agreement being executed by the NEO. The impact on the
NEO’s various elements of compensation is the same as described under Early Retirement with Approval or Normal
Retirement except as follows:
Severance Pay. Severance is paid according to terms of the applicable employment agreement. Each NEO would receive
severance in the amount of two times base salary at the time of termination.
Performance Cash. No payment would be paid to the NEO under the Performance Unit Program.
Performance Shares. No performance shares would be vested under the Performance Unit Program.
Change-in-Control with Qualifying Termination. Should we terminate a NEO in a Qualifying Termination as part of a
change-in-control, then the provisions of the NEO’s employment agreement related to severance payments and lapsing of
stock restrictions would apply. Payments for these items are conditioned on a release agreement being executed by the
NEO. The impact on the NEO’s various elements of compensation is the same as described under Termination (Without
Cause) except as follows:
Annual Performance Pay Plan. A NEO experiencing a Qualifying Termination will be entitled to a payment equal to the
target amount of the award the NEO would have been entitled to receive, without proration. Assuming the change-in-
control occurred on the last business day of the year, no additional amounts under the plan would be paid. The actual
amounts paid for 2025 are reflected in the Summary Compensation Table and described in the Non-Equity Incentive Plan
Compensation narrative to that table. If a Qualifying Termination occurred on any other date, a NEO would receive the
target amount of the award, as shown in the Grants of Plan-Based Awards in Fiscal 2025 table.
Restricted Stock. Restricted shares granted under the Stock and Incentive Plan will vest in the event of a Qualifying
Termination. Restricted stock holdings information can be found in the Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End 2025
table.
Performance Cash. A NEO experiencing a Qualifying Termination will be entitled to a payment equal to the target amount
of the award the NEO would have been entitled to receive, without proration. Assuming the change-in-control occurred on
the last business day of the year, no additional amounts under the PUP plan would be paid for the 2023 PUP cycle. The
actual amounts paid for that cycle are reflected in the Summary Compensation Table and described in the Non-Equity
Incentive Plan Compensation narrative to that table. The Post-Termination or Change-in-Control Payments table reflects
the target award amounts that would be paid for the 2024 and 2025 PUP cycles.
Performance Shares. A NEO experiencing a Qualifying Termination will be entitled to share vesting equal to the target
amount of the award the NEO would have been entitled to receive, without proration. Assuming the change-in-control
occurred on the last business day of the year, no additional shares would vest under the PUP plan for the 2023 PUP
cycle. The actual shares that vested for that cycle are reflected in a Form 4 filed by each NEO. The table reflects the
target award shares that would vest, valued at the closing price of our common stock on the NYSE on December 31,
2025, for the 2024 and 2025 PUP cycles.
A change-in-control without a Qualifying Termination has no effect on NEO compensation.

(4)The Peer Group TSR set forth in this table utilizes the Philadelphia Oil Service Index (OSX), which we also utilize in the stock
performance graph required by Item 201(e) of Regulation S-K included in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2025.
The comparison assumes $100 was invested for the period starting December 31, 2020, through the end of the listed year in the
Company and in the OSX, respectively. Historical stock performance is not necessarily indicative of future stock performance.
(5)We determined Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) to be the most important financial performance measure used to link Company
performance to Compensation Actually Paid to our PEO and Non-PEO NEOs in 2025, as we did in 2022-2024. More information on
ROCE can be found in the Long-Term Incentives section of Compensation Discussion and Analysis. This performance measure may
not have been the most important financial performance measure for years 2021 and 2020, and we may determine a different financial
performance measure to be the most important financial performance measure in future years.

For 2025, the annual total compensation of our CEO was 186 times the median of the annual total compensation of all
employees, based on annual total compensation of $16,539,020 for the CEO and $88,698 for the median employee.
This disclosure is based on an October 1, 2023, employee population of 47,429, of which 15,222 were U.S. employees and
32,207 were non-U.S. employees, and remains representative of current employee population. We excluded from this
employee population 2,289 non-U.S. employees from 43 countries as the total number of employees from these non-U.S.
jurisdictions was less than 5% of our total employee population. After applying the exclusion, the total employee population
was 45,140.

The median employee was identified using base pay, overtime pay, bonuses, allowances, and premiums. We used the total
gross wages of all employees as of our determination date of October 1, 2023, as a reasonable estimate of the median total
gross wages for the employee population and identified all employees within 1% of the median total gross wages. From this
group we selected an employee as a reasonable representative of our median employee. Annual total compensation for
both the CEO and the median employee was calculated in accordance with Item 402(c)(2)(x) of Regulation S-K. We did not
identify a new median employee this year because there has been no change in our employee population or employee
compensation arrangements that we reasonably believe would significantly impact our pay ratio disclosure.
The annual total compensation for our CEO includes both the amount reported in the “Total” column of our Summary
Compensation Table, $16,525,407, and the estimated value of our CEO’s health and welfare benefits, $13,613. Due to the
flexibility afforded in calculating the CEO pay ratio, the ratio may not be comparable to CEO pay ratios presented by other
companies.

HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement

Proposal No. 4 Approval of the
Halliburton Energy Services, Inc.
Charter Amendment
General Information
On December 9, 1996, Halliburton Energy Services, Inc. (HESI) announced plans to implement a holding company
reorganization (Holding Company Reorganization). On December 12, 1996, HESI implemented the Holding Company
Reorganization pursuant to Section 251(g) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (DGCL). As a result of
the Holding Company Reorganization, HESI became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and the Company became
the new parent company of and the successor issuer to HESI and replaced HESI as the public company trading on the
NYSE under the ticker symbol “HAL”.
As required by Section 251(g) of the DGCL, in connection with the Holding Company Reorganization, HESI’s Certificate of
Incorporation was amended (as amended and restated to date, the HESI Charter) to provide that any act or transaction by
or involving HESI that requires the approval of HESI’s shareholders will also require the approval of the Company’s
shareholders by the same vote that is required by the DGCL and the HESI Charter (the Pass-Through Voting Provision).
Accordingly, the Pass-Through Voting Provision gives the Company’s shareholders direct voting rights with respect to
matters affecting HESI that would otherwise only require the approval of the Company’s subsidiary that is the sole
shareholder of HESI. Absent a provision like the Pass-Through Voting Provision, there is no general requirement under
Delaware law that shareholders of a parent entity be given the right to vote on transactions involving the parent entity’s
wholly owned subsidiaries.
The Board seeks approval from the Company’s shareholders to amend the HESI Charter to remove the Pass-Through
Voting Provision (the HESI Charter Amendment), which is an unusual requirement and a limitation on administrative and
operational flexibility. Among other things, the elimination of the Pass-Through Voting Provision would allow the Company’s
subsidiary that is the sole shareholder of HESI to approve certain corporate acts relating to HESI without the additional
approval of the Company’s shareholders. The Pass-Through Voting Provision, which will be removed from the HESI Charter
if the proposed HESI Charter Amendment is approved, reads as follows:
FIFTEENTH: Any act or transaction by or involving the Corporation that requires for its adoption under the
General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or its certificate of incorporation the approval of the stockholders
of the Corporation shall, by virtue of this reference to Section 251(g) of the General Corporation Law of the State of
Delaware, require, in addition, the approval of the stockholders of Halliburton Company, a Delaware corporation
(formerly Halliburton Hold Co.), or any successor thereto by merger, so long as such corporation or its successor is
the ultimate parent, directly or indirectly, of this Corporation, by the same vote that is required by the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and/or the certificate of incorporation of this Corporation. For the
purposes of this Article FIFTEENTH, the term “parent” shall mean a corporation that owns, directly or indirectly, at
least a majority of the outstanding capital stock of this Corporation entitled to vote in the election of directors of this
Corporation without regard to the occurrence of any contingency.
A complete copy of the proposed HESI Charter Amendment is attached to this proxy statement as Appendix A.
Reasons for the HESI Charter Amendment
The Company operates in more than 70 countries worldwide and has over 280 subsidiaries, none of which, with the
exception of HESI, require approval of the Company’s shareholders to take certain corporate actions. The removal of the
Pass-Through Voting Provision will put the Company in the same position as substantially all other public holding companies
that operate through multiple subsidiaries. It is uncommon for the shareholders of such public holding companies to have
direct voting rights as to matters that affect only subsidiaries of the holding company. By removing this requirement, the
Company will gain the flexibility and efficiency currently realized by nearly all other companies that operate under the same,
or similar, structures.
Under Delaware law, certain acts, such as a change in domicile or the conversion of a wholly owned subsidiary from a
corporation into a limited liability company, would require the approval of the parent corporation as the sole shareholder of
the subsidiary, but would not normally require a vote of the shareholders of the parent corporation. However, if the Pass-
HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement
89
Through Voting Provision were to be retained in the HESI Charter, then such acts would require the approval of the
Company’s shareholders.
Obtaining the approval of the shareholders of a public corporation would significantly delay HESI’s ability to complete certain
actions and increase its costs, including through scheduling a vote, whether at a regular annual shareholders’ meeting or at
a special meeting, of the Company’s shareholders. To avoid such delays and costs, and to provide maximum flexibility and
efficiency under the Company’s holding company structure, the Company proposes to remove the Pass-Through Voting
Provision from the HESI Charter. Removing the Pass-Through Provision from the HESI Charter would have no effect on the
rights of shareholders of the Company to vote on matters relating to the Company. Following the removal of the Pass-
Through Voting Provision from the HESI Charter, shareholders of the Company would continue to have the voting rights
typically provided to shareholders of a public holding company by Delaware law.
Impact on Shareholder Rights
Removing the Pass-Through Voting Provision from the HESI Charter would have no effect on the right of shareholders of the
Company to vote on matters relating to the Company, such as a merger or consolidation of the Company, a sale of all or
substantially all of the Company’s assets, or any other acts or transactions requiring the approval of the Company’s
shareholders under applicable law. If the proposed HESI Charter Amendment is approved by the Company’s shareholders
and effected, then the Pass-Through Voting Provision would be removed from the HESI Charter, and the Company would no
longer be required to obtain the additional approval of the Company’s shareholders for acts or transactions by or involving
HESI as is currently required by the Pass-Through Voting Provision.
Vote Required
The affirmative vote of the majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock entitled to vote on the matter is needed
to approve the proposal.

Proposal No. 5 Approval to Amend and
Restate the Halliburton Company Stock
and Incentive Plan
Introduction
The Halliburton Company Stock and Incentive Plan was last approved by shareholders at the 2024 Annual Meeting and
reserved 27,259,345 shares for issuance thereunder.
The proposed amendment and restatement of the Stock and Incentive Plan (Plan) replenishes the pool of shares of
Halliburton common stock available for issuance under the Stock and Incentive Plan by adding 19,900,000 shares and
makes minor language changes. The Stock and Incentive Plan is the only active plan used to grant awards of the types
described in this proposal.
Our Board is requesting that shareholders approve the amendment and restatement of the Stock and Incentive Plan, which
amendment and restatement was adopted by the Board on February 10, 2026, subject to shareholder approval.
General
In order to give Halliburton the flexibility to responsibly address its future equity compensation needs, Halliburton is
requesting that shareholders approve the amendment and restatement which adds 19,900,000 shares to the Plan.
The Plan contains the following important features:
All awards under the Plan, with the exception of 5% of shares available for awards, are established with a one-year
minimum vesting period;
The Plan contains a prohibition against “liberal share counting” or “liberal share recycling” with respect to shares available
for awards under the Plan;
The Plan provides that all shares available for award are available for awards of incentive stock options;
Repricing of stock options and stock appreciation rights is prohibited unless prior shareholder approval is obtained;
Stock options and stock appreciation rights must be granted with an exercise price that is not less than 100% of the fair
market value on the date of grant;
The ability to automatically receive replacement stock options when a stock option is exercised with previously acquired
shares of Halliburton common stock, or so-called “stock option reloading”, is not permitted;
In any single calendar year, the value of awards granted under the Plan when added to any cash or other compensation
paid to a non-management Director outside of the Plan may not exceed $750,000;
Awards are subject to clawback, recovery, or recoupment by Halliburton under any clawback or recoupment policy
adopted by Halliburton, whether before or after the date of grant of the award; and
Awards are subject to “double-trigger” change of control vesting provisions.
The 19,900,000 shares to be added under the Plan pursuant to the amendment and restatement of the Plan, in combination
with the remaining authorized shares and shares added back into the Plan from forfeitures, are expected to satisfy
Halliburton’s equity compensation needs through the 2028 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. This being the case, if the
amendment and restatement is approved, Halliburton anticipates seeking the authorization of additional shares under the
Plan in 2028.

(1)As of March 1, 2026 Halliburton, had total outstanding awards of options to purchase 6,925,222 shares with a weighted average
exercise price of $42.92 and a weighted average life of 1.76 years, full value awards with respect to 19,063,404 shares were
outstanding. As of the record date of March 23, 2026, there were [          ] shares of our common stock outstanding.
(2)During 2025, Halliburton granted full value awards with respect to 6,951,867 shares, and 344,836 performance shares were earned. 
As of December 31, 2025, our basic weighted average common shares outstanding was 852,939,319.
If the amendment and restatement of the Plan is approved by shareholders, the aggregate number of shares of Halliburton
common stock that will be available for issuance under the Plan would increase to 32,506,830 shares, based on the
estimates set forth above, all of which shall be available for awards of incentive stock options. Each share issued as
restricted stock (or pursuant to the vesting of a stock unit or a performance share award) will count as the issuance of 1.60
shares reserved under the Plan, while each share granted as a stock option or stock appreciation right will count as the
issuance of 1.0 share reserved under the Plan. If awards granted under the Plan are forfeited or terminate before being
exercised, then the shares underlying those awards will again become available for awards under the Plan.
The Plan does not provide for “liberal share counting” or “liberal share recycling”. Liberal share counting or liberal share
recycling refers to circumstances where shares granted and exercised may be added back to an incentive plan for future
issuance, including the following situations:
Shares tendered or withheld in payment of an exercise price;
Shares tendered or withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations;
Shares reacquired by an issuer with the proceeds of an option exercise price; and
Shares that are not issued due to a net settlement of an award.
In each of the situations above, such shares are no longer available for awards under the Plan. For example, shares
withheld from an award to satisfy tax withholding obligations are no longer available for awards under the Plan, and a stock
appreciation right or option will be counted in full against the number of shares available for issuance under the Plan,
regardless of whether a net settlement occurs resulting in a fewer number of shares issued than are covered by the stock
appreciation right or option.
The number of stock option shares or stock appreciation rights, singly or in combination, together with shares or share
equivalents under performance awards granted to any individual who is an employee in any one calendar year, shall not in
the aggregate exceed 1,000,000. The cash value determined as of the date of grant of any performance award not
denominated in common stock granted to any individual who is an employee for any one calendar year shall not exceed
$30,000,000. The value of awards (based on fair market value determined as of the date of grant) granted to a non-
management Director in any single calendar year, when added to any cash or other compensation payable to such Director
in the same calendar year, shall not exceed $750,000.
In the event of any recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, combination, exchange, stock dividend, stock
split, extraordinary dividend or divestiture (including a spin-off), or any other change in the corporate structure or shares of
common stock occurring after the date of the grant of an award, the Compensation Committee shall make appropriate
adjustments to the number and price of shares of common stock or other consideration subject to such awards and the
award limits set forth in the preceding paragraph.
The Stock and Incentive Plan
Types of Awards
The Plan provides for the grant of any or all of the following types of awards:
stock options, including incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options;
stock appreciation rights, either independent of, or in connection with, stock options;
restricted stock;
restricted stock units;
performance awards; and
stock value equivalent awards.
92
HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement
www.halliburton.com
Term
The Plan has an indefinite term.
Any stock option granted in the form of an incentive stock option must satisfy the requirements of Section 422 of the Internal
Revenue Code (IRC). Awards may be made to the same person on more than one occasion and may be granted singly, in
combination, or in tandem as determined by the Compensation Committee. To date, only awards of nonqualified stock
options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, and performance awards have been made under the Plan.
Administration
The Board has appointed the Compensation Committee to administer the Plan. Subject to the terms of the Plan, and to any
approvals and other authority as the Board may reserve to itself from time to time, the Compensation Committee, consistent
with the terms of the Plan, will have authority to:
select the individuals to receive awards and determine the timing, form, amount or value, and term of grants and awards,
including providing for terms regarding the accelerated vesting of an award otherwise subject to minimum vesting
provisions, and the conditions and restrictions, if any, subject to which grants and awards will be made and become
payable under the Plan;
construe the Plan and prescribe rules and regulations for the administration of the Plan; and
make any other determinations authorized under the Plan as the Compensation Committee deems necessary or
appropriate.
Eligibility
A broad group of our employees and employees of our affiliates are eligible to participate in the Plan. The selection of
participants from eligible employees is within the discretion of the Compensation Committee. Our non-management
Directors are eligible to participate in the Plan. As of January 1, 2026, approximately 5,800 employees (including employees
and executive officers) and 11 non-management Directors were eligible for awards under the Plan as determined by the
Compensation Committee.
Stock Options
Under the Plan, the Compensation Committee may grant awards in the form of stock options to purchase shares of common
stock. The Compensation Committee will determine the number of shares subject to an option, the manner and time of the
option’s exercise, and the exercise price per share of stock subject to the option. Options are established with the first date
they may become vested and exercisable set to be at least one year from the date of grant, provided that up to 5% of the
shares available for grant under the Plan may be awarded without regard to the minimum one-year vesting period. The term
of an option may not exceed ten years. We do not receive any consideration for granting stock options. The exercise price of
a stock option will not be less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date the option is granted. Repricing of
stock options and reloading of stock options are prohibited unless prior shareholder approval is obtained. The Compensation
Committee will designate each option as a nonqualified or an incentive stock option.
The option exercise price may, at the discretion of the Compensation Committee, be paid by a participant in cash, shares of
common stock, or a combination of cash and common stock.
Stock Appreciation Rights
The Plan also authorizes the Compensation Committee to grant stock appreciation rights either independent of, or in
connection with, a stock option. The exercise price of a stock appreciation right will not be less than the fair market value of
the common stock on the date the stock appreciation right is granted. If granted with a stock option, exercise of stock
appreciation rights will result in the surrender of the right to purchase the shares under the option as to which the stock
appreciation rights were exercised. Upon exercising a stock appreciation right, the holder receives for each share for which
the stock appreciation right is exercised an amount equal to the difference between the exercise price and the fair market
value of the common stock on the date of exercise.
Payment of that amount may be made in shares of common stock, cash, or a combination of cash and common stock, as
determined by the Compensation Committee. Stock appreciation rights are established with the first date they may become
vested and exercisable set to be at least one year from the date of grant, provided that up to 5% of the shares available for
grant under the Plan may be awarded without regard to the minimum one-year vesting period. The term of a stock
appreciation right may not exceed ten years. Repricing of stock appreciation rights and reloading of stock appreciation rights
are prohibited unless prior shareholder approval is obtained. We do not receive any consideration for granting stock
appreciation rights.

Restricted Stock
The Plan provides that shares of common stock subject to specific restrictions may be awarded to eligible individuals as
determined by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee will determine the nature and extent of the
restrictions on the shares, the duration of the restrictions, and any circumstance under which restricted shares will be
forfeited. The restriction period is established to be at least one year from the date of grant, provided that up to 5% of the
shares available for grant under the Plan may be awarded without regard to the minimum one-year vesting period. During
the period of restriction, recipients will have the right to receive dividends and the right to vote the shares.
Restricted Stock Units
The Plan authorizes the Compensation Committee to grant restricted stock units. A restricted stock unit is a unit evidencing
the right to receive one share of common stock or an equivalent cash value equal to the fair market value of a share of
common stock. The Compensation Committee will determine the nature and extent of the restrictions on the restricted stock
units, the duration of the restrictions, and any circumstance under which restricted stock units will be forfeited. The restriction
period is established to be at least one year from the date of grant, provided that up to 5% of the shares available for grant
under the Plan may be awarded without regard to the minimum one-year vesting period. The Compensation Committee may
provide for the payment of dividend equivalents during the period of restriction, but recipients will not have the right to
receive actual dividends or to vote the shares underlying the restricted stock units.
Performance Awards
The Plan permits the Compensation Committee to grant performance awards to eligible individuals. Performance awards
are awards that are contingent, in whole or in part, on the achievement of one or more performance measures. Performance
awards may be settled in cash or stock, as determined by the Compensation Committee. The number of shares or share
equivalents under performance awards, singly or in combination, together with the number of stock option shares or stock
appreciation rights, granted to any individual in any one calendar year, shall not in the aggregate exceed 1,000,000. The
cash value (determined as of the date of grant) of any performance award that is not denominated in stock granted to any
one participant in a calendar year may not exceed $30,000,000. The vesting period of a performance award may not be less
than one year from the date of grant, provided that up to 5% of the shares available for grant under the Plan may be
awarded without regard to the minimum one-year vesting period.
The performance criteria that may be used by the Compensation Committee in granting performance awards consist of
objective tests based on the following:
earnings
cash flow
customer satisfaction
revenues
financial return ratios
profit return and margins
market share
working capital
net operating profit after-taxes
asset turns
cash value added performance
return on capital
shareholder return and/or value
operating profits (including EBITDA)
net profits
earnings per share
stock price
cost reduction goals
debt to capital ratio
any other criteria as determined by the Compensation Committee
94
HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement
www.halliburton.com
The Compensation Committee may select one criterion or multiple criteria for measuring performance. The measurement
may be based on our overall corporate performance, subsidiary or business unit performance, or comparative performance
with other companies or other external measures of selected performance criteria. The Compensation Committee will also
determine the length of time over which performance will be measured and the effect of a recipient’s death, disability,
retirement, or other termination of service during the performance period.
Stock Value Equivalent Awards
The Plan permits the Compensation Committee to grant stock value equivalent awards to eligible individuals. Stock value
equivalent awards are rights to receive the fair market value of a specified number of shares of common stock, or the
appreciation in the fair market value of the shares, over a specified period of time, pursuant to a vesting schedule, all as
determined by the Compensation Committee. Stock value equivalent awards are established with vesting dates at least one
year from the date of grant, provided that up to 5% of the shares available for grant under the Plan may be awarded without
regard to the minimum one-year vesting period. Payment of the vested portion of a stock value equivalent award shall be
made in cash, based on the fair market value of the common stock on the payment date.
Amendment
The Plan provides that the Board may at any time terminate or amend the Plan. However, the Board may not, without
approval of the shareholders, amend the Plan to effect a “material revision” of the Plan, where a “material revision” includes,
but is not limited to, a revision that:
materially increases the benefits accruing to a participant under the Plan;
materially increases the aggregate number of securities that may be issued under the Plan;
materially modifies the requirements as to eligibility for participation in the Plan; or
changes the types of awards available under the Plan.
No amendment or termination of the Plan shall, without the consent of the participant, alter or impair rights under any
awards previously granted.
The summary of the Plan provided above is a summary of the principal features of the Plan. This summary, however, does
not purport to be a complete description of all of the provisions of the Plan. It is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full
text of the Plan. A copy of the Plan can be found in Appendix B to this proxy statement.
Change-in-Control
Awards granted on or after February 13, 2019, are subject to double-trigger vesting, such that, if a participant is terminated
due to involuntary termination without cause, death, disability, good reason (as defined in an employment agreement, or a
similar constructive termination event, in each case, only if a severance benefit is payable upon termination of employment
due to such event pursuant to an employment agreement), or other event as specified in the participant’s award document
within the period beginning on the date of the public announcement of a transaction that, if consummated, would constitute a
corporate change and ending on the date that is the earlier of the announcement of the termination of the proposed
transaction or two years after the consummation of the transaction, the following will occur automatically:
any outstanding options and stock appreciation rights shall become immediately vested and fully exercisable for the full
term thereof;
any restrictions on restricted stock awards or restricted stock unit awards shall immediately lapse;
all performance measures upon which an outstanding performance award is contingent shall be deemed achieved and the
holder shall receive a payment equal to the target amount of the award he or she would have been entitled to receive; and
any outstanding cash awards, including stock value equivalent awards, shall immediately vest and be paid based on the
vested value of the award.
All awards granted prior to February 13, 2019, have vested and, as a result, all of our outstanding awards are subject to
double-trigger vesting provisions.
Plan Benefits
All awards to Directors, executive officers, and employees are made at the discretion of the Compensation Committee.
Therefore, the benefits and amounts that will be received or allocated under the Plan, as amended and restated, are not
determinable at this time.
HALLIBURTON

Federal Income Tax Treatment
The following summarizes the current U.S. federal income tax consequences generally arising for awards under the Plan.
A participant who is granted an incentive stock option does not realize any taxable income at the time of the grant or at the
time of exercise, but in some circumstances may be subject to an alternative minimum tax as a result of the exercise.
Similarly, we are not entitled to any deduction at the time of grant or at the time of exercise. If the participant makes no
disposition of the shares acquired pursuant to an incentive stock option before the later of two years from the date of grant
and one year from the date of exercise, any gain or loss realized on a subsequent disposition of the shares will be treated as
a long-term capital gain or loss. Under these circumstances, we will not be entitled to any deduction for federal income tax
purposes. If the participant fails to hold the shares for that period, the disposal is treated as a disqualifying disposition. The
gain on the disqualifying disposition is ordinary income to the participant to the extent of the difference between the option
price and the fair market value on the exercise date. Any excess is long-term or short-term capital gain, depending on the
holding period. Under these circumstances, we will be entitled to a tax deduction equal to the ordinary income amount the
participant recognizes in a disqualifying disposition.
A participant who is granted a nonqualified stock option does not have taxable income at the time of grant, but does have
taxable income at the time of exercise. The income equals the difference between the exercise price of the shares and the
market value of the shares on the date of exercise. We are entitled to a corresponding tax deduction for the same amount.
The grant of a stock appreciation right will produce no U.S. federal tax consequences for the participant or us. The exercise
of a stock appreciation right results in taxable income to the participant, equal to the difference between the exercise price of
the shares and the market price of the shares on the date of exercise, and a corresponding tax deduction to us.
A participant who has been granted an award of restricted shares of common stock or an award of restricted stock units will
not realize taxable income at the time of the grant (unless, in the case of restricted shares, the participant makes an election
under IRC Section 83(b) within 30 days after the grant date to realize taxable income at the time of the grant based on the
fair market value of the shares on the grant date). When the restrictions lapse, the participant will recognize taxable income
in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares or cash received at that time over the amount, if any,
paid for the shares. We will be entitled to a corresponding tax deduction. Dividends on restricted stock and dividend
equivalents, if any, on restricted stock units paid to the participant during the restriction period will also be compensation
income to the participant and will be deductible as compensation expense by us (unless, in the case of restricted shares, the
participant makes an election under IRC Section 83(b) within 30 days after the grant date).
A participant who has been granted a performance award will not realize taxable income at the time of the grant, and we will
not be entitled to a tax deduction at that time. A participant will realize ordinary income at the time the award is paid equal to
the amount of cash paid or the value of shares delivered, and we will be entitled to a corresponding tax deduction.
The grant of a stock value equivalent award produces no U.S. federal income tax consequences for the participant or us.
The payment of a stock value equivalent award results in taxable income to the participant equal to the amount of the
payment received, valued with reference to the fair market value of the common stock on the payment date. We are entitled
to a corresponding tax deduction for the same amount.
In order for Halliburton to deduct the amounts described above, such amounts must constitute reasonable compensation for
services rendered or to be rendered and must be ordinary and necessary business expenses. The ability to obtain a
deduction for awards under the Plan could also be limited by IRC Section 280G, which provides that certain excess
parachute payments made in connection with a change in control of an employer are not deductible. The ability to obtain a
deduction for amounts paid under the Plan could also be affected by IRC Section 162(m), which limits the deductibility, for
U.S. federal income tax purposes, of compensation paid to certain employees to $1 million during any taxable year. As a
result, we may from time to time in the future make award payments under the Plan to executive officers that are not
deductible.
We may withhold any taxes required by law to be withheld in connection with any award.
IRC Section 409A generally provides that any deferred compensation arrangement which does not meet specific
requirements regarding (i) timing of payouts, (ii) advance election of deferrals, or (iii) restrictions on acceleration of payouts
will result in immediate taxation of any amounts deferred to the extent not subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture. Failure to
comply with Section 409A may result in the early taxation (plus interest) to the holder of deferred compensation and the
imposition of a 20% penalty tax on the holder on such deferred amounts included in the holder’s income. In general, to avoid
a Section 409A violation, amounts deferred may only be paid out on separation from service, disability, death, a change-in-
control, an unforeseen emergency (other than death), each as defined under Section 409A, or at a specified time.
Furthermore, the election to defer generally must be made in the calendar year prior to performance of services, and any
provision for accelerated payout, other than for the reasons specified above, may cause the amounts deferred to be subject
to early taxation and to the imposition of the excise tax. Based on current guidance, we intend to structure future awards in a
manner that is exempt from or complies with Section 409A.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THE APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSED
AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT OF THE HALLIBURTON COMPANY STOCK AND INCENTIVE PLAN.
HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement
97
Proposal No. 6 Approval to Amend and
Restate the Halliburton Company
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
Introduction
In 2002, the Board of Directors adopted and the shareholders approved the Halliburton Company 2002 Employee Stock
Purchase Plan (2002 ESPP), effective July 1, 2002, and reserved 24,000,000 shares (as adjusted for a 2-1 stock split in July 
2006) for issuance under the 2002 ESPP. The 2002 Non-Qualified Stock Purchase Plan, a sub-plan of the 2002 ESPP (Sub-
Plan), was established to facilitate the offering of stock ownership interests to employees residing outside the United States.
In 2009, the 2002 ESPP was renamed the Halliburton Company Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP), the Sub-Plan was
renamed the Halliburton Company Non-Qualified Stock Purchase Plan (NQSPP) and an additional 20,000,000 shares were
approved by shareholders for issuance under the plans. In 2015 and 2021, the ESPP was amended and restated, and
shareholders approved an additional 30,000,000 shares each such year for issuance under the plans.
This amendment and restatement replenishes the pool of shares of Halliburton common stock available for purchase under
the ESPP by adding 30,000,000 shares. This amended and restated ESPP is subject to shareholder approval.
Our Board is requesting that shareholders approve the amendment and restatement of the ESPP and the reservation of
shares for issuance under the ESPP, which amendment and restatement was approved by the Board of Directors on
February 10, 2026. Shareholder approval will qualify the shares for special tax treatment under IRC Section 423.
General
The purpose of the ESPP is to provide employees of Halliburton and its designated subsidiaries with the opportunity to
purchase Halliburton common stock and, therefore, to have an additional incentive to contribute to the prosperity of
Halliburton.
The Employee Stock Purchase Plan
Administration
The ESPP is administered by the Compensation Committee. None of the members of the Compensation Committee is an
officer or employee, or former officer or employee, of Halliburton or its subsidiaries. Subject to the terms of the ESPP, the
Compensation Committee has the power to make, amend, and repeal rules and regulations for the interpretation and
administration of the ESPP. The decisions of the Compensation Committee are final and binding upon all parties.
Shares Subject to the ESPP
As amended and restated, there will be a total of 134,000,000 shares authorized under the ESPP, subject to adjustment as
described below. The reserved shares will also be used to fund stock purchases under the NQSPP, and any shares issued
under the NQSPP will reduce, on a share-for-share basis, the number of shares available for subsequent issuance under
the ESPP.
Eligibility
In general, any employee of Halliburton or a designated subsidiary is eligible to participate in the ESPP during a purchase
period unless the employee is employed in a country whose laws or regulations effectively prohibit participation in the plan. A
“purchase period” is a period of approximately three months that begins on the first trading day of each January, April, July,
and October. An “enrollment date” is the first day of each purchase period. Eligible employees become participants in the
ESPP by filing with Halliburton a payroll deduction authorization form within the time prescribed by the Compensation
Committee prior to an enrollment date.
As of January 31, 2026, 84,697,071 shares of common stock had been issued under the ESPP and the NQSPP, and
49,302,939 shares would be available for future issuance, assuming approval of the 30,000,000 share increase, which forms
part of this proposal. As of January 31, 2026, approximately 40,000 employees, including 10 executive officers, were eligible
to participate in the ESPP.
98
HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement
www.halliburton.com
Participation
Each participant is granted a right to purchase shares of Halliburton common stock on his or her enrollment date. A
participant in the ESPP may make contributions through payroll deductions of up to 10% of his or her eligible compensation
each pay period, but not less than $10 for any pay period. Stock purchase rights may not accrue at a rate that exceeds
$25,000 in fair market value of the common stock (determined at the time such stock purchase rights are granted) per
calendar year. The participant’s contributions are used to purchase shares of Halliburton’s common stock at the end of each
purchase period. The right to purchase Halliburton shares is exercised automatically on the last trading day of each
purchase period (purchase date) to the extent of the payroll deductions accumulated during the purchase period, provided
that the number of shares that may be purchased by a participant in any purchase period is limited to 10,000 shares. No
participant shall be granted a stock purchase right under the ESPP to the extent that, immediately after the grant, such
participant (or any other person whose stock would be attributed to such participant) would own capital stock of Halliburton
and/or hold outstanding options to purchase such stock possessing 5% or more of the total combined voting power or value
of all classes of the capital stock of Halliburton or any of its subsidiaries.
The purchase price per share is equal to 90% of the fair market value of the common stock on the enrollment date or the
purchase date, whichever is lower. The number of whole and fractional shares of Halliburton common stock a participant
purchases in each purchase period is determined by dividing the total amount of payroll deductions during the purchase
period by the purchase price.
Termination of Employment
Termination of a participant’s employment for any reason, including death, immediately cancels his or her participation in the
ESPP. In that event, the payroll deductions credited to the participant’s account will be refunded to him or her, and in the
case of death, to his or her estate or personal representative.
Changes in Common Stock; Adjustments
In the event that Halliburton’s common stock is changed by reason of any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization,
combination, or other similar change in Halliburton’s capital structure, appropriate action will be taken by the Compensation
Committee to adjust any or all of (i) the number and type of shares subject to the ESPP, (ii) the number and type of shares
subject to outstanding stock purchase rights, and (iii) the purchase price. In the event of a Corporate Change (as defined in
the ESPP), unless the successor corporation assumes or substitutes new stock purchase rights:
  the purchase date for the outstanding stock purchase rights will be accelerated to a date fixed by the Compensation
Committee prior to the effective date of the Corporate Change; and
  on the effective date, any unexercised stock purchase rights will expire and Halliburton will promptly refund the unused
amount of each participant’s payroll deductions.
Amendment and Termination of the Plan
The Board may terminate the ESPP at any time with respect to common stock that is not subject to stock purchase rights.
The Board may amend the ESPP at any time, provided that no change may be made in any outstanding stock purchase
right that would materially impair that right without the consent of the participant. If not sooner terminated, the ESPP will
automatically terminate when all of the shares of common stock reserved for issuance have been sold.
Withdrawal
Generally, a participant may withdraw from the ESPP during a purchase period at any time prior to the fifth business day
before a purchase date.
The summary of the ESPP provided above is a summary of the principal features of the plan. This summary, however, does
not purport to be a complete description of all of the provisions of the ESPP. It is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
full text of the ESPP. A copy of the ESPP can be found in Appendix C to this proxy statement, and any shareholder who
wishes to obtain a copy of the ESPP may do so by written request to the Corporate Secretary at the address set forth on
page 100 of this proxy statement.
Plan Benefits
The benefits to be received by Halliburton’s executive officers and employees as a result of the proposed amendment and
restatement of the ESPP are not determinable, since the amounts of future purchases by participants are based on elective
participant contributions. Non-employee Directors are not eligible to participate. No purchase rights have been granted, and
HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement
99
no shares of common stock have been issued, with respect to the 30,000,000 share increase for which shareholder
approval is sought under this proposal.
U.S. Federal Income Tax Treatment
The following summarizes the effect of current U.S. federal income tax upon the participant and Halliburton with respect to
shares purchased under the ESPP. It does not purport to be complete, and does not discuss the tax consequences arising in
the context of a participant’s death or the income tax laws of any municipality, state, or foreign country in which the
participant’s income or gain may be taxable.
If the Halliburton shareholders approve this proposal, the ESPP, and the right of participants to make purchases thereunder,
should qualify under the provisions of Sections 421 and 423 of the IRC. Under these provisions, no income will be taxable to
a participant until the shares purchased under the ESPP are sold or otherwise disposed of. Upon sale or other disposition of
the shares, the participant will generally be subject to tax and the amount of the tax will depend on the holding period. If the
shares are sold or disposed of more than two years from the first day of the applicable purchase period and more than one
year from the date of transfer of the shares to the participant, then the participant generally will recognize ordinary income
measured as the lesser of:
  the excess of the fair market value of the shares at the time of sale over the purchase price, or
  10% of the fair market value of the shares as of the enrollment date.
Any additional gain should be treated as long-term capital gain. If the shares are disposed of within the two-year and one-
year periods referred to above, the participant will recognize ordinary income generally measured as the difference between
the fair market value of the shares on the purchase date over the purchase price. Any additional gain or loss on the sale will
be long-term or short-term capital gain or loss, depending on the holding period. Halliburton is not entitled to a deduction for
amounts taxed as ordinary income or capital gain to a participant except to the extent ordinary income is recognized by
participants upon a disposition of shares prior to the expiration of the holding period.
Non-U.S. Federal Income Tax Treatment
The income taxation consequences to participants and Halliburton (or its foreign subsidiaries) with respect to participation in
the NQSPP vary by country. Generally, participants are subject to taxation at the time of purchase. The employing foreign
subsidiary may be entitled to a deduction in the tax year in which a participant recognizes taxable income, provided the
subsidiary reimburses Halliburton for the cost of the benefit conferred under the NQSPP.
General/Vote Required
The closing price of our common stock on March 23, 2026, as traded on the NYSE, was [$    ] per share.
The affirmative vote of the majority of the votes cast by holders of shares of our common stock present in person or
represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter is needed to approve the proposal.

Report on Form 10-K, including financial statements, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, accompanies this proxy
statement only if you have requested that a copy of this proxy statement be mailed to you. The Annual Report on Form 10-K
is also available electronically by following the instructions in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials. The Annual
Report on Form 10-K shall not be considered as a part of the proxy solicitation materials or as having been incorporated by
reference.
We will furnish without charge to each person whose proxy is being solicited, upon the written request of any such
person, a copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, including the
financial statements. Such requests should be directed to the Corporate Secretary, Halliburton Company, 3000 N.
Sam Houston Parkway East, Houston, Texas 77032.
Subject to space availability, all shareholders as of the record date, or their duly appointed proxies, may attend the Annual
Meeting and each may be accompanied by one guest. Admission to the Annual Meeting will be on a first-come, first-served
basis. Registration will begin at 8:00 a.m. and the Annual Meeting will begin at 9:00 a.m. Please note that we will ask you to
present valid picture identification, such as a driver’s license or passport, when you check in at the registration desk.
If you hold your shares in “street name” (that is, through a broker or other nominee), you must bring a proxy issued in your
name from the record holder to the meeting.
You may not bring cameras, recording equipment, electronic devices, bags, briefcases, or packages into the
Annual Meeting.
If you attend the Annual Meeting, you may vote in person. If you are not present, you can only vote your shares if you have
voted via the Internet or by telephone or returned a properly executed proxy pursuant to the instructions set forth on the
Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials; in these cases, your shares will be voted as you specified. If you return a
properly executed proxy and do not specify a vote, your shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of the
Board.
You may revoke the authorization given in your proxy at any time before the shares are voted at the Annual Meeting by
attending the Annual Meeting and voting those shares in person, by submitting a properly executed proxy bearing a later
date, or by delivering written notice of revocation to the Corporate Secretary at the address set forth above. If you hold your
shares in "street name", you must follow the procedures of your broker or other nominee to change your voting instructions.
The record date for determination of the shareholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting is the close of business on
March 23, 2026. Our common stock, par value $2.50 per share, is our only class of capital stock that is outstanding. As of
March 23, 2026, there were [          ] shares of our common stock outstanding. Each outstanding share of common stock is
entitled to one vote on each matter submitted to the shareholders for a vote at the Annual Meeting. We will maintain for a
period of ten days ending on the day before the meeting date at our principal executive office a complete list of shareholders
entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, which list shall be open to the examination of any shareholder for any purpose
germane to the meeting during ordinary business hours. Our principal executive office is located at 3000 N. Sam Houston
Parkway East, Administration Building, Houston, Texas 77032.
Votes cast by proxy or in person at the Annual Meeting will be counted by the persons we appoint to act as election
inspectors for the Annual Meeting. The holders of a majority in voting power of the issued and outstanding shares of our
common stock present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting shall constitute a
quorum for the transaction of business at such meeting. The election inspectors will treat broker non-votes, which are shares
held in street name that cannot be voted by a broker on specific matters in the absence of instructions from the beneficial
owner of the shares, as shares that are present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum.
Brokers holding shares must vote according to specific instructions they receive from the beneficial owners of those shares.
If brokers do not receive specific instructions from the beneficial owner, NYSE rules govern whether or not the broker is
permitted to vote on the beneficial owner's behalf. The NYSE has designated certain categories of proposals as "routine,"
and, in the absence of specific instructions from the beneficial owner, brokers are permitted to vote on routine matters at
their discretion. However, in the absence of specific instructions from the beneficial owner, brokers are prohibited from voting
on any matter deemed non-routine, which results in a broker non-vote for such proposal.

by or at the direction of the Board or by a shareholder who meets the requirements specified in our By-laws and has

III.Effective Date and Duration of the Plan
The Plan as amended and restated herein was adopted by the Board on February 10, 2026, is subject to approval by the
Company’s stockholders and will become effective as of the date of such approval. Subject to the provisions of Article XIII,
the Plan shall remain in effect until all Options and Stock Appreciation Rights granted under the Plan have been exercised or
expired by reason of lapse of time, all restrictions imposed upon Restricted Stock Awards and Restricted Stock Unit Awards
have lapsed and all Performance Awards and Stock Value Equivalent Awards have been satisfied.
IV.Administration
(a)Composition of Committee. The Plan shall be administered by a Committee of Directors of the Company which shall
be appointed by the Board.
(b)Powers. The Committee shall have authority, in its discretion, to determine which eligible individuals shall receive an
Award, the time or times when such Award shall be made, whether an Incentive Stock Option, nonqualified Option or
Stock Appreciation Right shall be granted, the number of shares of Common Stock which may be issued under each
Option, Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock Award and Restricted Stock Unit Award, and the value of each
Performance Award and Stock Value Equivalent Award. The Committee shall have the authority, in its discretion, to
establish the terms and conditions applicable to any Award, subject to any specific limitations or provisions of the Plan.
In making such determinations the Committee may take into account the nature of the services rendered by the
respective individuals, their responsibility level, their present and potential contribution to the Company’s success and
such other factors as the Committee in its discretion shall deem relevant. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to
the contrary, the Committee may provide for the acceleration of vesting or exercisability of an Award upon a Corporate
Change, upon a termination of employment or service by reason of death, disability, retirement or otherwise or for any
other reason.
(c)Additional Powers. The Committee shall have such additional powers as are delegated to it by the other provisions of
the Plan. Subject to the express provisions of the Plan, the Committee is authorized to construe the Plan and the
respective Award Documents executed thereunder, to prescribe such rules and regulations relating to the Plan as it
may deem advisable to carry out the Plan, and to determine the terms, restrictions and provisions of each Award,
including such terms, restrictions and provisions as shall be requisite in the judgment of the Committee to cause
designated Options to qualify as Incentive Stock Options, and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable
for administering the Plan. The Committee may correct any defect or supply any omission or reconcile any
inconsistency in any Award Document relating to an Award in the manner and to the extent the Committee shall deem
expedient to carry the Award into effect. The determinations of the Committee on the matters referred to in this Article
IV shall be conclusive.
(d)Delegation of Authority. The Committee may delegate some or all of its power to the Chief Executive Officer of the
Company as the Committee deems appropriate; provided, however, that the Committee may not delegate its power
with regard to the selection for participation in the Plan of an officer or other person subject to Section 16 of the
Exchange Act or decisions concerning the timing, pricing or amount of an Award to such an officer or other person and
any delegation of the power to grant Awards shall be permitted by applicable law.
(e)Engagement of an Agent. The Company may, in its discretion, engage an agent to (i) maintain records of Awards and
Holders’ holdings under the Plan, (ii) execute sales transactions in shares of Common Stock at the direction of
Holders, (iii) deliver sales proceeds as directed by Holders, and (iv) hold shares of Common Stock owned without
restriction by Holders, including shares of Common Stock previously obtained through the Plan that are transferred to
the agent by Holders at their discretion. Except to the extent otherwise agreed by the Company and the agent, when
an individual loses his or her status as an employee or non-management Director of the Company, the agent shall
have no obligation to provide any further services to such person and the shares of Common Stock previously held by
the agent under the Plan may be distributed to the person or his or her legal representative.
V.Grant of Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock Awards, Restricted Stock Unit
Awards, Performance Awards and Stock Value Equivalent Awards; Shares Subject to the Plan
(a)Award Limits. The Committee may from time to time grant Awards to one or more individuals determined by it to be
eligible for participation in the Plan in accordance with the provisions of Article VI. The aggregate number of shares of
Common Stock that may be issued under the Plan shall not exceed 32,506,830 shares, all of which shall be available
for Awards of Incentive Stock Options. Shares issued as Restricted Stock Awards, Restricted Stock Unit Awards or
pursuant to Performance Awards will count against the shares available for issuance under the Plan as 1.60 shares for
every 1 share issued in connection with the Award. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the
HALLIBURTON

B-5
number of Option shares or Stock Appreciation Rights, singly or in combination, together with shares or share
equivalents under Performance Awards granted to any Holder who is an employee in any one calendar year, shall not
in the aggregate exceed 1,000,000. The cash value determined as of the date of grant of any Performance Award not
denominated in Common Stock granted to any Holder who is an employee in any one calendar year shall not exceed
$30,000,000. The fair market value, determined as of the date of grant, of Awards granted to a Holder who is a non-
management Director in any one calendar year, when added to any cash or other compensation payable to such a
Holder in such calendar year, shall not exceed $750,000. Any shares which remain unissued and which are not subject
to outstanding Options or Awards at the termination of the Plan shall cease to be subject to the Plan, but, until
termination of the Plan, the Company shall at all times reserve a sufficient number of shares to meet the requirements
of the Plan. If Awards are forfeited or are terminated for any other reason before being exercised or settled, then the
shares underlying such Awards shall again become available for Awards under the Plan. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the following shares shall not become available for Awards under the Plan: (i) shares tendered by an
Optionee or withheld by the Company for payment of an option price, (ii) shares tendered by a Holder or withheld by
the Company to satisfy the Company’s tax withholding obligation in connection with an Award, (iii) shares reacquired in
the open market or otherwise using cash proceeds from the exercise of Options, and (iv) shares that are not issued to
a Holder due to a net settlement of an Award. For purposes of clarity, Stock Appreciation Rights and Options shall be
counted in full against the number of shares available for issuance under the Plan, regardless of the number of shares
issued upon settlement of the Stock Appreciation Rights and Options. The shares underlying a Restricted Stock Award
to the extent vested shall not again become available for Awards under the Plan. The aggregate number of shares
which may be issued under the Plan shall be subject to adjustment in the same manner as provided in Article XIII with
respect to shares of Common Stock subject to Options then outstanding. The 1,000,000-share limit on Holders who
are employees with respect to Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights Awards, singly or in combination, together
with shares or share equivalents under Performance Awards granted to any Holder who is an employee in any
calendar year shall be subject to adjustment in the same manner as provided in Article XIII. Separate stock certificates
shall be issued by the Company for those shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option and
for those shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of any Option which does not constitute an Incentive Stock Option.
(b)Stock Offered. The stock to be offered pursuant to the grant of an Award may be authorized but unissued Common
Stock or Common Stock previously issued and reacquired by the Company.
VI.Eligibility
Only employees of the Company or any Parent Corporation or Subsidiary of the Company and non-management Directors
shall be eligible for Awards under the Plan as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. Each Award shall be
evidenced in such manner and form as may be prescribed by the Committee.
VII.Stock Options
(a)Stock Option Agreement. Each Option shall be evidenced by an Option Agreement between the Company and the
Optionee which shall contain such terms and conditions as may be approved by the Committee. The terms and
conditions of the respective Option Agreements need not be identical. Specifically, an Option Agreement may provide
for the payment of the option price, in whole or in part, by the delivery of a number of shares of Common Stock (plus
cash if necessary) having a Fair Market Value equal to such option price.
(b)Restriction Period To Be Established by the Committee. The Committee shall establish the Restriction Period
applicable to an Option; provided, however, that such Restriction Period shall not be less than the Minimum Criteria.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Awards of Options may utilize the Minimum Criteria Exception.
(c)Option Period. The term of each Option shall be as specified by the Committee at the date of grant; provided that, in
no case, shall the term of an Option exceed ten (10) years.
(d)Limitations on Exercise of Option. An Option shall be exercisable in whole or in such installments and at such times
as determined by the Committee.
(e)Option Price. The purchase price of Common Stock issued under each Option shall be determined by the Committee,
but such purchase price shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of Common Stock subject to the Option on the
date the Option is granted.
(f)Options and Rights in Substitution for Stock Options Granted by Other Corporations. Options and Stock
Appreciation Rights may be granted under the Plan from time to time in substitution for stock options held by
employees of corporations who become, or who became prior to the effective date of the Plan, employees of the
Company or of any Subsidiary as a result of a merger or consolidation of the employing corporation with the Company
or such Subsidiary, or the acquisition by the Company or a Subsidiary of all or a portion of the assets of the employing
corporation, or the acquisition by the Company or a Subsidiary of stock of the employing corporation with the result
that such employing corporation becomes a Subsidiary.
(g)Repricing Prohibited. Except for adjustments pursuant to Article XIII, the purchase price of Common Stock for any
outstanding Option granted under the Plan may not be decreased after the date of grant nor may an outstanding
Option granted under the Plan be surrendered to the Company as consideration for the grant of a new Option with a
B-6
HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement

lower purchase price, cash or a new Award unless there is prior approval by the Company stockholders. Any other
action that is deemed to be a repricing under any applicable rule of the New York Stock Exchange shall be prohibited
unless there is prior approval by the Company stockholders.
VIII.Stock Appreciation Rights
(a)Stock Appreciation Rights. A Stock Appreciation Right is the right to receive an amount equal to the Spread with
respect to a share of Common Stock upon the exercise of such Stock Appreciation Right. Stock Appreciation Rights
may be granted in connection with the grant of an Option, in which case the Option Agreement will provide that
exercise of Stock Appreciation Rights will result in the surrender of the right to purchase the shares under the Option
as to which the Stock Appreciation Rights were exercised. Alternatively, Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted
independently of Options in which case each Award of Stock Appreciation Rights shall be evidenced by a Stock
Appreciation Rights Agreement between the Company and the Holder which shall contain such terms and conditions
as may be approved by the Committee. The terms and conditions of the respective Stock Appreciation Rights
Agreements need not be identical. The Spread with respect to a Stock Appreciation Right may be payable either in
cash, shares of Common Stock with a Fair Market Value equal to the Spread or in a combination of cash and shares of
Common Stock as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.
(b)Restriction Period To Be Established by the Committee. The Committee shall establish the Restriction Period
applicable to a Stock Appreciation Right; provided, however, that such Restriction Period shall not be less than the
Minimum Criteria. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Awards of Stock Appreciation Rights may utilize the Minimum Criteria
Exception.
(c)Exercise Price. The exercise price of each Stock Appreciation Right shall be determined by the Committee, but such
exercise price shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date the Stock
Appreciation Right is granted.
(d)Exercise Period. The term of each Stock Appreciation Right shall be as specified by the Committee at the date of
grant; provided that, in no case, shall the term of a Stock Appreciation Right exceed ten (10) years.
(e)Limitations on Exercise of Stock Appreciation Right. A Stock Appreciation Right shall be exercisable in whole or in
such installments and at such times as determined by the Committee.
(f)Repricing Prohibited. Except for adjustments pursuant to Article XIII, the exercise price of a Stock Appreciation Right
may not be decreased after the date of grant nor may an outstanding Stock Appreciation Right granted under the Plan
be surrendered to the Company as consideration for the grant of a new Stock Appreciation Right with a lower exercise
price, cash or a new Award unless there is prior approval by the Company stockholders. Any other action that is
deemed to be a repricing under any applicable rule of the New York Stock Exchange shall be prohibited unless there is
prior approval by the Company stockholders.
IX.Restricted Stock Awards
(a)Restriction Period To Be Established by the Committee. The Committee shall establish the Restriction Period
applicable to Restricted Stock Awards; provided, however, that such Restriction Period shall not be less than the
Minimum Criteria. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Restricted Stock Awards may utilize the Minimum Criteria Exception.
(b)Other Terms and Conditions. Common Stock awarded pursuant to a Restricted Stock Award shall be represented by
a stock certificate or in a book entry account in each case, registered in the name of the Holder of such Restricted
Stock Award or, at the option of the Company, in the name of a nominee of the Company. The Holder shall have the
right to receive dividends during the Restriction Period, to vote the Common Stock subject thereto and to enjoy all
other stockholder rights, except that (i) the Holder shall not be entitled to possession of the stock certificate until the
Restriction Period shall have expired, (ii) the Company shall retain custody of the stock during the Restriction Period,
(iii) the Holder may not sell, transfer, pledge, exchange, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of the stock during the
Restriction Period, and (iv) a breach of the terms and conditions established by the Committee pursuant to the
Restricted Stock Award shall cause a forfeiture of the Restricted Stock Award. The Committee may, in its sole
discretion, prescribe additional terms, conditions or restrictions relating to Restricted Stock Awards as shall be set forth
in a Restricted Stock Award Agreement.
(c)Payment for Restricted Stock. A Holder shall not be required to make any payment for Common Stock received
pursuant to a Restricted Stock Award, except to the extent otherwise required by law and except that the Committee
may, in its discretion, charge the Holder an amount in cash not in excess of the par value of the shares of Common
Stock issued under the Plan to the Holder.
(d)Miscellaneous. Nothing in this Article shall prohibit the exchange of shares issued under the Plan (whether or not then
subject to a Restricted Stock Award) pursuant to a plan of reorganization for stock or securities in the Company or
another corporation a party to the reorganization, but the stock or securities so received for shares then subject to the
restrictions of a Restricted Stock Award shall become subject to the restrictions of such Restricted Stock Award. Any
shares of stock received as a result of a stock split or stock dividend with respect to shares then subject to a Restricted
Stock Award shall also become subject to the restrictions of the Restricted Stock Award.

X.Restricted Stock Unit Awards
(a)Restriction Period To Be Established by the Committee. The Committee shall establish the Restriction Period
applicable to Restricted Stock Unit Awards; provided, however, that such Restriction Period shall not be less than the
Minimum Criteria. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Restricted Stock Unit Awards may utilize the Minimum Criteria
Exception.
(b)Other Terms and Conditions. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, prescribe additional terms, conditions or
restrictions relating to the Restricted Stock Unit Award as shall be set forth in a Restricted Stock Unit Award
Agreement. Cash dividend equivalents may be converted into additional Restricted Stock Units or may be paid during,
or may be accumulated and paid at the end of, the Restriction Period with respect to a Restricted Stock Unit Award, as
determined by the Committee. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may provide for the deferral of a Restricted Stock
Unit Award.
(c)Payment for Restricted Stock Unit. A Holder shall not be required to make any payment for Common Stock received
pursuant to a Restricted Stock Unit Award, except to the extent otherwise required by law and except that the
Committee may, in its discretion, charge the Holder an amount in cash not in excess of the par value of the shares of
Common Stock issued under the Plan to the Holder.
(d)Restricted Stock Units in Substitution for Units Granted by Other Corporations. Restricted Stock Unit Awards
may be granted under the Plan from time to time in substitution for restricted stock units held by employees of
corporations who become, or who became prior to the effective date of the Plan, employees of the Company or of any
Subsidiary as a result of a merger or consolidation of the employing corporation with the Company or such Subsidiary,
or the acquisition by the Company or a Subsidiary of all or a portion of the assets of the employing corporation, or the
acquisition by the Company or a Subsidiary of stock of the employing corporation with the result that such employing
corporation becomes a Subsidiary.
XI.Performance Awards
(a)Performance Period. The Committee shall establish, with respect to and at the time of each Performance Award, a
performance period over which the performance applicable to the Performance Award of the Holder shall be measured
and a Restriction Period; provided, however, that such Restriction Period shall not be less than the Minimum Criteria.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Performance Awards may utilize the Minimum Criteria Exception.
(b)Performance Awards. Each Performance Award may have a maximum value established by the Committee at the
time of such Award.
(c)Performance Measures. A Performance Award granted under the Plan shall be awarded contingent, in whole or in
part, upon the achievement of one or more performance measures. The performance criteria for Performance Awards
shall consist of objective tests based on the following: earnings, cash flow, return on capital, cash value added
performance, stockholder return and/or value, revenues, operating profits (including EBITDA), net profits, earnings per
share, stock price, cost reduction goals, debt to capital ratio, financial return ratios, profit return and margins, market
share, working capital, net operating profit after taxes, asset turns, customer satisfaction and any other criteria as
determined by the Committee. The Committee may select one criterion or multiple criteria for measuring performance.
Performance criteria may be measured on corporate, subsidiary or business unit performance, or on a combination
thereof. Further, the performance criteria may be based on comparative performance with other companies or other
external measure of the selected performance criteria.
(d)Payment. Following the end of the performance period, the Holder of a Performance Award shall be entitled to receive
payment of an amount, not exceeding the maximum value of the Performance Award, if any, based on the
achievement of the performance measures for such performance period, as determined by the Committee in its sole
discretion. Payment of a Performance Award (i) may be made in cash, Common Stock or a combination thereof, as
determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, (ii) shall be made in a lump sum or in installments as prescribed by
the Committee in its sole discretion, and (iii) to the extent applicable, shall be based on the Fair Market Value of the
Common Stock on the payment date.
(e)Termination of Service. The Committee shall determine the effect of termination of service during the performance
period on a Holder’s Performance Award.
XII.Stock Value Equivalent Awards
(a)Stock Value Equivalent Awards. Stock Value Equivalent Awards are rights to receive an amount equal to the Fair
Market Value of shares of Common Stock or rights to receive an amount equal to any appreciation or increase in the
Fair Market Value of Common Stock over a specified period of time, which is subject to a Restriction Period as
established by the Committee, without payment of any amounts by the Holder thereof (except to the extent otherwise
required by law) or satisfaction of any performance criteria or objectives. Each Stock Value Equivalent Award may
have a maximum value established by the Committee at the time of such Award.

HALLIBURTON

with respect to a Stock Value Equivalent Award, as determined by the Committee.
(d)Termination of Service. The Committee shall determine the effect of termination of service during the applicable
vesting period on a Holder’s Stock Value Equivalent Award.
XIII.Recapitalization or Reorganization
(a)Except as hereinafter otherwise provided, in the event of any recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation,
combination, exchange, stock dividend, stock split, extraordinary dividend or divestiture (including a spin-off) or any
other change in the corporate structure or shares of Common Stock occurring after the date of the grant of an Award,
the Committee shall, in its discretion, make such adjustment as to the number and price of shares of Common Stock or
other consideration subject to such Awards as the Committee shall deem appropriate in order to prevent dilution or
enlargement of rights of the Holders.
(b)The existence of the Plan and the Awards granted hereunder shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Board
or the stockholders of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other
change in the Company’s capital structure or its business, any merger or consolidation of the Company, any issue of
debt or equity securities having any priority or preference with respect to or affecting Common Stock or the rights
thereof, the dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of all or any part
of its assets or business or any other corporate act or proceeding.
(c)The shares with respect to which Options, Stock Appreciation Rights or Restricted Stock Units may be granted are
shares of Common Stock as presently constituted, but if, and whenever, prior to the expiration of an Option, Stock
Appreciation Rights or Restricted Stock Unit Award, the Company shall effect a subdivision or consolidation of shares
of Common Stock or the payment of a stock dividend on Common Stock without receipt of consideration by the
Company, the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which such Award relates or may thereafter be
exercised (i) in the event of an increase in the number of outstanding shares shall be proportionately increased, and,
as applicable, the purchase price per share shall be proportionately reduced, and (ii) in the event of a reduction in the
number of outstanding shares shall be proportionately reduced, and, as applicable, the purchase price per share shall
be proportionately increased.
(d)If the Company recapitalizes or otherwise changes its capital structure, thereafter upon any exercise of an Option or
Stock Appreciation Right or payment in settlement of a Restricted Stock Unit Award theretofore granted, the Holder
shall be entitled to purchase or receive, as applicable, under such Award, in lieu of the number of shares of Common
Stock as to which such Award relates or shall then be exercisable, the number and class of shares of stock and
securities and the cash and other property to which the Holder would have been entitled pursuant to the terms of the
recapitalization if, immediately prior to such recapitalization, the Holder had been the holder of record of the number of
shares of Common Stock then covered by such Award.
(e)Notwithstanding any provisions of the Plan to the contrary, in the event of an employee Holder’s Qualifying
Termination, unless an Award Document otherwise provides, as of the date of such Holder’s termination of service (i)
any outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights shall become immediately vested and fully exercisable for the
full term thereof, (ii) any restrictions on Restricted Stock Awards or Restricted Stock Unit Awards shall immediately
lapse, (iii) all performance measures upon which an outstanding Performance Award is contingent shall be deemed
achieved and the Holder shall receive a payment equal to the target amount of the Award he or she would have been
entitled to receive, without proration, and (iv) any outstanding cash Awards including Stock Value Equivalent Awards
shall immediately vest and be paid based on the vested value of the Award.
(f)Except as hereinbefore expressly provided, the issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class or securities
convertible into shares of stock of any class, for cash, property, labor or services, upon direct sale, upon the exercise
of rights or warrants to subscribe therefor, or upon conversion of shares or obligations of the Company convertible into
such shares or other securities, and in any case whether or not for fair value, shall not affect, and no adjustment by
reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number of shares of Common Stock subject to Awards theretofore
granted, the purchase price per share of Common Stock subject to Options or the calculation of the Spread with
respect to Stock Appreciation Rights.
(g)Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Article XIII shall be administered in accordance with Section 409A
of the Code, and settlement of Awards under Section 13(e) will be delayed until the scheduled payment or vesting date
to the extent required to comply with Section 409A of the Code or to avoid the taxes imposed thereunder.

XIV.Amendment or Termination of the Plan
The Board in its discretion may terminate the Plan or alter or amend the Plan or any part thereof from time to time; provided
that no change in any Award theretofore granted may be made which would impair the rights of the Holder without the
consent of the Holder, and provided, further, that the Board may not, without approval of the stockholders, amend the Plan to
effect a “material revision” of the Plan, where a “material revision” includes, but is not limited to, a revision that: (a) materially
increases the benefits accruing to a Holder under the Plan, (b) materially increases the aggregate number of securities that
may be issued under the Plan, (c) materially modifies the requirements as to eligibility for participation in the Plan, or (d)
changes the types of awards available under the Plan.
XV.Other
(a)No Right To An Award. Neither the adoption of the Plan nor any action of the Board or of the Committee shall be
deemed to give an employee or a non-management Director any right to be granted an Option, a Stock Appreciation
Right, a right to a Restricted Stock Award, Restricted Stock Unit Award, Performance Award or Stock Value Equivalent
Award or any other rights hereunder except as may be evidenced by an Award or by an Option or Stock Appreciation
Agreement duly executed on behalf of the Company, and then only to the extent of and on the terms and conditions
expressly set forth therein. The Plan shall be unfunded. The Company shall not be required to establish any special or
separate fund or to make any other segregation of funds or assets to assure the payment of any Award.
(b)No Employment Rights Conferred. Nothing contained in the Plan or in any Award made hereunder shall:
(i)confer upon any employee any right to continuation of employment with the Company or any Subsidiary; or
(ii)interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate his or her employment at any
time.
(c)No Rights to Serve as a Director Conferred. Nothing contained in the Plan or in any Award made hereunder shall
confer upon any Director any right to continue their position as a Director of the Company.
(d)Other Laws; Withholding. The Company shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Common Stock pursuant to
any Award at any time, when the offering of the shares of Common Stock covered by such Award 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 an Award, the
Participant, 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. By
accepting an Award, the Participant agrees that the shares of Common Stock which the Participant may acquire upon
vesting of an Award 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. Furthermore, the Participant also agrees (i) that the
Company may refuse to register the transfer of the shares of Common Stock acquired under an Award 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 Common Stock acquired under the Plan. No fractional shares of
Common Stock shall be delivered, nor shall any cash in lieu of fractional shares be paid. The Company shall have the
right to deduct in connection with all Awards any taxes required by law to be withheld and to require any payments
necessary to enable it to satisfy its withholding obligations. The Committee may permit the Holder of an Award to elect
to surrender, or authorize the Company to withhold, shares of Common Stock (valued at their Fair Market Value on the
date of surrender or withholding of such shares) in satisfaction of the Company’s withholding obligation, subject to
such restrictions as the Committee deems appropriate.
(e)No Restriction on Corporate Action. Nothing contained in the Plan shall be construed to prevent the Company or
any Subsidiary from taking any corporate action which is deemed by the Company or such Subsidiary to be
appropriate or in its best interest, whether or not such action would have an adverse effect on the Plan or any Award
made under the Plan. No Holder, beneficiary or other person shall have any claim against the Company or any
Subsidiary as a result of any such action.
(f)Restrictions on Transfer. No Award may 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
an Award or of such rights contrary to the provisions of an Award Document or in the Plan, the Award and such rights
shall immediately become null and void. The Committee may prescribe and include in the respective Award
Documents hereunder other restrictions on transfer. Upon a Holder’s death, the Holder’s personal representative or
other person entitled to succeed to the rights of the Holder (the “Successor Holder”) may exercise such rights as are
provided under the applicable Award Document. A Successor Holder must furnish proof satisfactory to the Company of
his or her rights to exercise the Award under the Holder’s will or under the applicable laws of descent and distribution.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee shall have the authority, in its discretion, to grant (or to sanction by way

of amendment to an existing grant) Awards (other than Incentive Stock Options) which may be transferred by the
Holder for no consideration to or for the benefit of the Holder’s Immediate Family, to a trust solely for the benefit of the
Holder and his Immediate Family, or to a partnership or limited liability company in which the Holder and members of
his Immediate Family have at least 99% of the equity, profit and loss interest, in which case the Award Document shall
so state. A transfer of an Award pursuant to this Paragraph (f) shall be subject to such rules and procedures as the
Committee may establish. In the event an Award is transferred as contemplated in this Paragraph (f), such Award may
not be subsequently transferred by the transferee except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and such
Award shall continue to be governed by and subject to the terms and limitations of the Plan and the relevant written
instrument for the Award and the transferee shall be entitled to the same rights as the Holder under Articles XIII and
XIV hereof as if no transfer had taken place. No transfer shall be effective unless and until written notice of such
transfer is provided to the Committee, in the form and manner prescribed by the Committee. The consequences of
termination of employment shall continue to be applied with respect to the original Holder, following which the Awards
shall be exercised by the transferee only to the extent and for the periods specified in the Plan and the related Award
Document. The Option Agreement, Stock Appreciation Rights Agreement, Restricted Stock Award Agreement,
Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement or other Award Document shall specify the effect of the death of the Holder on
the Award.
(g)Governing Law. This Plan shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, 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.
(h)Foreign Awardees. Without amending the Plan, the Committee may grant Awards to eligible persons who are foreign
nationals on such terms and conditions different from those specified in the Plan as may, in the judgment of the
Committee, be necessary or desirable to foster and promote achievement of the purposes of the Plan and, in
furtherance of such purposes, the Committee may make such modifications, amendments, procedures, subplans and
the like as may be necessary or advisable to comply with the provisions of laws and regulations in other countries or
jurisdictions in which the Company or its Subsidiaries operate.
(i)Clawback or Recoupment. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Plan, any Award shall be subject to clawback,
recovery or recoupment by the Company under any clawback or recoupment policy adopted by the Company, whether
before or after the date of grant of the Award.

Plan, and make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan and the purchase of Stock
under the Plan, including without limitation establishing the exchange ratio applicable to amounts withheld in a currency
other than U.S. dollars. In addition, the Committee shall correct any defect or supply any omission or reconcile any
inconsistency in the Plan, or in any stock purchase right granted under the Plan, correct any mistakes in the administration
of the Plan in the manner and to the extent that the Committee deems necessary or desirable to effectuate the intent of the
Plan. The Committee shall, in its sole discretion, make such decisions or determinations and take such actions, and all such
decisions, determinations and actions taken or made by the Committee pursuant to this and the other paragraphs of the
Plan shall be conclusive on all parties. The Committee shall not be liable for any decision, determination or action taken in
good faith in connection with the administration of the Plan. The Committee shall have the authority to delegate some or all

Company as the Committee deems appropriate.
4.      Participating Companies. The Committee may designate any present or future parent corporation of the Company
or Subsidiary that is eligible by law to participate in the Plan as a Participating Company by written instrument delivered to
the designated Participating Company. Such written instrument shall specify the effective date of such designation and shall
become, as to such designated Participating Company and employees in its employment, a part of the Plan. The terms of
the Plan may be modified as applied to the Participating Company only to the extent permitted under Section 423 of the
Code. Transfer of employment among the Company and Participating Companies shall not be considered a termination of
employment hereunder. Any Participating Company may, by appropriate action of its Board of Directors, terminate its
participation in the Plan. Moreover, the Committee may, in its discretion, terminate a Participating Company’s Plan
participation in the Plan at any time.
5.       Eligibility. Subject to the further provisions hereof, all Eligible Employees as of an Enrollment Date shall be eligible to
participate in the Plan with respect to the Purchase Period beginning as of such date.
6.       Stock Subject to the Plan. Subject to the provisions of paragraph 13, the aggregate number of shares of Stock
which may be sold under the Plan and the Sub-Plan shall not exceed 134,000,000 shares, which shares may be authorized
but unissued shares or treasury shares, including shares bought on the open market or otherwise for purposes of the Plan.
7.      Stock Purchase Rights.
(a)    Grant of Stock Purchase Rights. On each Enrollment Date the Company shall grant a stock purchase right to each
Eligible Employee who elects to participate in the Plan for the Purchase Period beginning on such date. Subject to
subparagraphs 7(f) and (g), the number of shares of Stock subject to a stock purchase right for a participant shall be equal
to the quotient of (i) the aggregate payroll deductions withheld on behalf of such participant during the Purchase Period,
divided by (ii) the Purchase Price of the Stock applicable to the Purchase Period; provided, however, that the maximum
number of shares of Stock that may be subject to any stock purchase right for a participant during any Purchase Period may
not exceed 10,000 shares (subject to adjustment as provided in paragraph 13). Whole and fractional shares shall be
purchased, unless the Committee determines that the purchase of fractional shares is administratively impracticable. Any
references in the Plan to “shares” shall include fractional shares, if any, purchased by the participant under the Plan.
(b)    Election to Participate; Payroll Deduction Authorization. An Eligible Employee may participate in the Plan only by
means of payroll deduction. Except as provided in subparagraph 7(f), each Eligible Employee who elects to participate in the
Plan shall deliver to the Company, within the time period prescribed by the Committee, a payroll deduction authorization in
the form or manner prescribed by the Company, whereby he gives notice of his election to participate in the Plan as of the
HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement
D-3
next following Enrollment Date, and whereby he designates an integral percentage (except as provided below) to be
deducted from his Eligible Compensation for each pay period paid during the Purchase Period and paid into the Plan for his
account. The designated percentage may not exceed 10%; provided, however, the minimum contribution per pay period
shall be $10.
(c)    Changes in Payroll Authorization. All payroll deductions made for a participant shall be credited to his account
under the Plan. A participant may discontinue his participation in the Plan as provided in paragraph 9 hereof, or may
increase or decrease the rate of his payroll deductions during the Purchase Period by completing or filing with the Company,
at a time and in a manner prescribed by the Committee, a new payroll deduction authorization form authorizing a change in
his payroll rate. The Committee may, in its discretion, limit the number of payroll rate changes during any Purchase Period.
The change in rate shall be effective as soon as administratively practicable after the Company’s receipt of the new payroll
deduction authorization form. A participant’s payroll deduction authorization form shall remain in effect for successive
Purchase Periods unless terminated as provided in paragraph 9 hereof.
(d)      Automatic Payroll Reduction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent necessary to comply with subparagraphs
7(f) and (g) hereof, a participant’s payroll deductions may be decreased to 0% at any time during a Purchase Period. Payroll
deductions shall recommence at the rate provided in such participant’s payroll deduction authorization form at the beginning
of the first Purchase Period that is scheduled to end in the following calendar year, unless terminated by the participant as
provided in paragraph 9 hereof.
(e)      Tax Withholding. At the time the stock purchase right is exercised, in whole or in part, or at the time some or all of
the Stock issued under the Plan is disposed of, the participant must make adequate provision for the Company’s federal,
state or other tax withholding obligations, if any, that arise upon the exercise of the stock purchase right or the disposition of
the Stock. At any time, the Company may, but shall not be obligated to, withhold from the participant’s compensation the
amount necessary for the Company to meet applicable withholding obligations, including without limitation any withholding
required to make available to the Company any tax deductions or benefits attributable to the sale or early disposition of
Stock purchased by the participant.
(f)      $25,000 Limitation. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, no employee shall be granted a stock
purchase right under the Plan which permits his rights to purchase Stock under the Plan and under all other employee stock
purchase plans of the Company and its parent corporation and Subsidiaries to accrue at a rate which exceeds $25,000 of
Fair Market Value of Stock (determined at the time such stock purchase right is granted) for each calendar year in which
such stock purchase right is outstanding at any time (within the meaning of Section 423(b)(8) of the Code). Any payroll
deductions in excess of the amount specified in the foregoing sentence shall be returned to the participant as soon as
administratively feasible.
(g)      Special Restriction on Participation. Any provisions of the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, no Eligible
Employee shall be granted a stock purchase right under the Plan to the extent that, immediately after the grant, such Eligible
Employee (or any other person whose stock would be attributed to such Eligible Employee pursuant to Section 424(d) of the
Code) would own capital stock of the Company and/or hold outstanding options to purchase such stock possessing 5% or
more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of the capital stock of the Company, its parent corporation or
any Subsidiary.
8.      Exercise of Stock Purchase Rights.
(a)    General Statement. Subject to the limitations set forth in paragraph 7, unless a participant withdraws from the Plan
as provided in paragraph 9, each participant in the Plan automatically and without any act on his part shall be deemed to
have exercised his stock purchase right on each Purchase Date to the extent of his unused payroll deductions under the
Plan and to the extent the issuance of Stock to such participant upon such exercise is lawful.
(b)      Delivery of Shares to Custodian. As soon as practicable after each Purchase Date, the Company shall deliver to a
custodian selected by the Committee one or more certificates representing (or shall otherwise cause to be credited to the
account of such custodian) the aggregate number of whole shares of Stock with respect to which stock purchase rights were
exercised on such Purchase Date of all of the participating employees hereunder. Such custodian shall keep accurate
records of the beneficial interests of each participant in such shares by means of participant accounts under the Plan, and
shall provide each participant with periodic statements with respect thereto as may be directed by the Committee. The
Committee may require that shares be retained with such custodian, or other designated broker or agent for a designated
period of time and/or may establish other procedures to permit tracking of disqualifying dispositions of such shares. If the
Company is required to obtain from any U.S. commission or agency authority to issue any such shares, the Company shall
seek to obtain such authority. Inability of the Company to obtain from any commission or agency (whether U.S. or foreign)
authority which counsel for the Company deems necessary for the lawful issuance of any such shares shall relieve the
Company from liability to any participant in the Plan except to return to him the amount of his payroll deductions under the
Plan which would have otherwise been used upon exercise of the relevant stock purchase right.

(c)    Withdrawal of Shares. A participant may, at any time, in such form and manner as established by the custodian,
direct the custodian to deliver to the participant all or part of the shares held by the custodian in his account or to sell such
shares and deliver to the participant the proceeds therefrom, less applicable expenses.
(d)      Dividends. With respect to an individual’s Stock held by the custodian pursuant to subparagraph 8(b), the participant
may request the custodian to reinvest in additional shares of Stock for such participant’s account any cash dividends
received by the custodian and attributable to such Stock. Otherwise, the participant will receive dividends in cash. The
custodian shall, in accordance with procedures adopted by the custodian, facilitate the participant’s voting rights attributable
to shares held in participant’s account.
9.      Withdrawal from the Plan.
(a)    General Statement. Any participant may withdraw in whole from the Plan prior to the Purchase Date relating to a
particular Purchase Period. Partial withdrawals shall not be permitted. A participant who wishes to withdraw from the Plan
must timely deliver to the Company a notice of withdrawal in a form prepared by the Company during the Purchase Period at
a time and in a manner prescribed by the Committee. The Company shall, as soon as administratively practicable, following
the receipt of the notice of withdrawal, refund to the participant the amount of his payroll deductions under the Plan which
have not yet been used to purchase shares upon the exercise of his stock purchase rights; and thereupon, automatically
and without any further act on his part, his payroll deduction authorization and his interest in unexercised stock purchase
rights under the Plan shall terminate in full.
(b)      Eligibility Following Withdrawal. A participant who withdraws from the Plan shall be eligible to participate again in
the Plan upon expiration of the Purchase Period during which he withdrew (provided that he is otherwise an Eligible
Employee at such later time).
10.    Termination of Eligible Employment. If the employment of a participant with the Company terminates for any
reason whatsoever or the participant ceases to be an Eligible Employee, then his participation in the Plan automatically and
without any act on his part shall terminate as of the date of such termination of employment or change in status. The
Company shall, as soon as administratively practicable, refund to him (or his estate or personal representative, as the case
may be) the amount of his payroll deductions under the Plan which have not yet been used to purchase Stock, and
thereupon his interest in unexercised stock purchase rights under the Plan shall terminate in full.
11.    Restriction Upon Assignment of Stock Purchase Rights. A stock purchase right granted under the Plan shall not
be transferable. Each stock purchase right shall be exercisable, during a participant’s lifetime, only by the participant to
whom granted. The Company shall not recognize and shall be under no duty to recognize any assignment or purported
assignment by an employee of any of his stock purchase rights under the Plan.
12.    No Shareholder Rights or Privileges Until Exercise of Stock Purchase Rights. With respect to shares of Stock
subject to a stock purchase right, a participant shall not be deemed to be a shareholder, and he shall not have any of the
rights or privileges of a shareholder, until such stock purchase right has been exercised and shares delivered pursuant to
subparagraph 8(b).
13.    Changes in Stock; Adjustments. Whenever any change is made in the Stock, by reason of a stock dividend or by
reason of subdivision, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization, combination, reclassification of shares
or other similar change, appropriate action will be taken by the Committee to adjust any or all of (i) the number and type of
shares subject to the Plan, (ii) the number and type of shares subject to outstanding stock purchase rights and (iii) the
Purchase Price with respect to any of the foregoing.
In the event of a Corporate Change, unless a successor corporation assumes or substitutes new stock purchase rights
(within the meaning of Section 424(a) of the Code) for all stock purchase rights then outstanding, (i) the Purchase Date for
all stock purchase rights then outstanding shall be accelerated to a date fixed by the Committee prior to the effective date of
the Corporate Change and (ii) upon such effective date any unexercised stock purchase rights shall expire and the
Company promptly shall refund to each participant the amount of such participant’s payroll deductions under the Plan which
have not yet been used to purchase Stock.
14.    Use of Funds; No Interest Paid. All funds received or held by the Company under the Plan shall be included in the
general funds of the Company free of any trust or other restriction, and may be used for any corporate purpose. No interest
shall be paid to any participant on amounts credited to his account.
15.    Term of the Plan. The Plan was originally effective July 1, 2002. This amended and restated Plan shall be effective
as of the date it was amended and restated, provided it is approved by stockholders. If not sooner terminated under the
provisions of paragraph 16, the Plan shall automatically terminate upon and no further payroll deductions shall be made and
no further stock purchase rights shall be granted after the date all of the shares of Stock reserved for issuance under the
Plan and the Sub-Plan, as increased and/or adjusted from time to time, have been sold under the Plan and the Sub-Plan. If
on the final Purchase Date there is an insufficient number of shares of Stock available for all purchases under stock
purchase rights exercised on such date, the number of available shares shall be prorated among the then purchasing
HALLIBURTON
2026 Proxy Statement
D-5
participants in an equitable manner as determined by the Committee based on their deductions for such Purchase Period
and all remaining amounts shall be returned to the participants.
16.    Amendment or Termination of the Plan. The Board in its discretion may terminate the Plan at any time with respect
to any Stock for which stock purchase rights have not theretofore been granted. The Board shall have the right to alter or
amend the Plan or any part thereof from time to time; provided, however, that, except as provided below, no change in any
stock purchase right theretofore granted may be made that would materially impair the stock purchase rights of the
participant without the consent of such participant. In the event the Board determines that the ongoing operation of the Plan
may result in unfavorable financial accounting consequences, the Board may, in its discretion and, to the extent necessary
or desirable, modify or amend the Plan to reduce or eliminate such accounting consequence including, but not limited to (i)
altering the Purchase Price for any Purchase Period including a Purchase Period underway at the time of the change in
Purchase Price; and (ii) shortening any Purchase Period so that Purchase Period ends on a new Purchase Date, including a
Purchase Period underway at the time of the Board action.
17.    Securities Laws. The Company shall not be obligated to issue any Stock pursuant to any stock purchase right
granted under the Plan at any time when the offer, issuance or sale of shares covered by such stock purchase right has not
been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or does not comply with such other state, federal or foreign
laws, rules or regulations, or the requirements of any stock exchange upon which the Stock may then be listed, as the
Company or the Committee deems applicable and, in the opinion of legal counsel for the Company, there is no exemption
from the requirements of such laws, rules, regulations or requirements available for the offer, issuance and sale of such
shares. Further, all Stock acquired pursuant to the Plan shall be subject to the Company’s policies concerning compliance
with securities laws and regulations, as such policies may be amended from time to time. The terms and conditions of stock
purchase rights granted hereunder to, and the purchase of shares by, persons subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act
shall comply with any applicable provisions of Rule 16b-3. As to such persons, the Plan shall be deemed to contain, and
such stock purchase rights shall contain, and the shares issued upon exercise thereof shall be subject to, such additional
conditions and restrictions as may be required from time to time by Rule 16b-3 to qualify for the maximum exemption from
Section 16 of the Exchange Act with respect to Plan transactions.
18.    No Restriction on Corporate Action. Nothing contained in the Plan shall be construed to prevent the Company or
any Subsidiary from taking any corporate action that is deemed by the Company or such Subsidiary to be appropriate or in
its best interest, whether or not such action would have an adverse effect on the Plan or any stock purchase right granted
under the Plan. No employee, beneficiary or other person shall have any claim against the Company or any Subsidiary as a
result of any such action.
19.    Miscellaneous Provisions.
(a)    Number and Gender. Wherever appropriate herein, words used in the singular shall be considered to include the
plural and words used in the plural shall be considered to include the singular. The masculine gender, where appearing in
the Plan, shall be deemed to include the feminine gender.
(b)      Headings. The headings and subheadings in the Plan are included solely for convenience, and if there is any conflict
between such headings or subheadings and the text of the Plan, the text shall control.
(c)      Not a Contract of Employment. The adoption and maintenance of the Plan shall not be deemed to be a contract
between the Company or any Participating Company and any person or to be consideration for the employment of any
person. Participation in the Plan at any given time shall not be deemed to create the right to participate in the Plan, or any
other arrangement permitting an employee of the Company or any Participating Company to purchase Stock at a discount,
in the future. The stock purchase rights and obligations under any participant’s terms of employment with the Company or
any Participating Company shall not be affected by participation in the Plan. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to
give any person the right to be retained in the employ of the Company or any Participating Company or to restrict the right of
the Company or any Participating Company to discharge any person at any time, nor shall the Plan be deemed to give the
Company or any Participating Company the right to require any person to remain in the employ of the Company or such
Participating Company or to restrict any person’s right to terminate his employment at any time. The Plan shall not afford any
participant any additional right to compensation as a result of the termination of such participant’s employment for any
reason whatsoever.
(d)    Compliance with Applicable Laws. The Company’s obligation to offer, issue, sell or deliver Stock under the Plan is
at all times subject to all approvals of and compliance with any governmental authorities (whether domestic or foreign)
required in connection with the authorization, offer, issuance, sale or delivery of Stock as well as all federal, state, local and
foreign laws. Without limiting the scope of the preceding sentence, and notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan, the
Company shall not be obligated to grant stock purchase rights or to offer, issue, sell or deliver Stock under the Plan to any
employee who is a citizen or resident of a jurisdiction the laws of which, for reasons of its public policy or otherwise, prohibit
the Company from taking any such action with respect to such employee.

(e)      Severability. If any provision of the Plan shall be held illegal or invalid for any reason, said illegality or invalidity shall
not affect the remaining provisions hereof; instead, each provision shall be fully severable and the Plan shall be construed
and enforced as if said illegal or invalid provision had never been included herein.
(f)      Governing Law. All provisions of the Plan shall be construed in accordance with the laws of Delaware except to the
extent preempted by federal law.

considers free cash flow an important indicator of the company's liquidity, as it helps both investors and management
evaluate the business’s ability to generate cash.
