Explanation of Responses:

1. The Company granted performance share units ("PSUs") to the reporting person on January 18, 2023. Vesting of the PSUs was based on three-year Company performance relative to select key competitors. Most of these competitors had not reported their 2025 audited financial results when the Company's compensation committee met in January 2026 to certify performance under the PSUs. As a result, the Company's compensation committee approved the issuance of 80% of the shares that the committee determined had been earned according to the information available to the committee at the time. As of March 13, 2026, all such competitors had reported their 2025 audited financial results. Shares of common stock reported hereunder represent shares finally determined to have been earned under the PSUs.

Did the SLB CTO buy or sell shares on the open market in this filing?

Why were SLB performance share units only partially issued earlier and finalized now?

When the compensation committee met in January 2026, most competitors had not yet reported 2025 audited results, so only 80% of earned shares were issued. By March 13, 2026, all results were available, allowing final determination of shares earned under the performance share units.
